Chapter 1 The boy in the snowy night

There was a creaking sound, and the wooden door was pushed in from the outside. Snow was flying heavily outside the house, and the wind was howling.

The person who entered was a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old. He shook off the white snow from his clothes and couldn't help shivering. He warmed his hands in the hot air, his face turned pale, and he walked slowly towards the earthen stove in the house.

The sparks scattered, and the young man added some firewood, and then the stove started to burn again. The young man poured out the herbs in his hands in a familiar manner, fanning the fireworks from time to time, and concentrated on his concentration.

I don't know how long it took, until a medicinal smell spread in the kitchen, which was refreshing but slightly bitter. The young man wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, with soft eyes, took the boiled herbs in his hand, and walked towards the back room.

"Mom, are you awake?" The young man walked into the room and said softly to an old woman on the bed.

Hearing this, the woman who was lying on the bed slowly opened her eyes, turned her head and looked sideways, her eyes full of vicissitudes of life were full of tenderness, she smiled lightly at the young man and said, "Yuan'er is back."

"Mom, are you feeling better? This morning, Uncle Zhang, who was hunting, and I went into the mountains and collected a lot of herbs. I heard from Uncle Zhang that these are effective for my body. When I came back, I boiled the herbs into a soup. Mom, now

Drink the medicine while it's hot." The young man said as he placed the wooden bowl in front of the bed and helped the woman up. His movements were agile and his thin figure was full of perseverance.

The woman looked a little decadent. She looked at the boy's every move with self-reproaching eyes, as if she was annoyed that she had been dragged down. She suffered from cold illness, and every winter her whole body became numb and stiff, making her unable to move. Now it's snowing heavily outside,

The woman was ill and could only rest in bed every day. Everything in the family fell on the young man, who shouldered everything alone for seven years.

The woman's husband went hunting in the mountains many years ago and accidentally fell off a cliff and died, leaving the mother and daughter dependent on each other.

"Yuan'er has really suffered you. It's my mother who is useless. It's my mother who has caused you trouble." The woman looked at the young man's appearance, her eyes were wet and red.

"Mom, it's been so many years, why do you still say these things every time? You're not tired of saying it, my ears are getting calloused." The young man pretended to be angry and glared at his mother, which was quite funny.

He didn't want his mother to worry, but he couldn't dispel the self-blame in her heart, so he had to put on a show. The young man named Yuan'er had already been sensible and well-behaved. His biggest wish was that his mother's health would be better.

Get up and survive this cold winter. Next spring, when the flowers bloom, my mother will be able to get out of bed and walk around. She can fold the most beautiful paper kite for him and fly it in the mountains and forests.

The young man's face was filled with warmth as he fed the herbs one mouthful at a time. The two of them whispered, laughing and talking about the coming days and nights of the next year.

Late at night, the bright moon shines into the house through the wooden fence above. It is dark and desolate, the heavy snow has stopped, and the chill is deep.

The young man was tightly wrapped in the bed quilt and lying on the bed, tossing and turning. He was panting from time to time. He didn't know why the young man suddenly became like this. He heard a cry from outside the house, and the young man suddenly sat up from the bed, his whole body exuding green color.

The radiant jade pendant fell from the chest to the ground with a crisp clang. However, there was no sign of any broken pieces on the jade pendant. Instead, the light became brighter and brighter, seeming to echo the distant sound outside the house just now.

The young man hurriedly picked up the jade pendant, as if he was worried that the blue light would be too dazzling, so he couldn't help but put it under his underwear, but in his panic, he accidentally cut his finger.

The blood flowed down instantly. But before the boy could react, the bleeding part of the wound was sucked in by the jade pendant in his hand. There was no trace of blood. The cyan light flashed for a few more times. The cut on the boy's hand also healed for no reason.

trace.

This ancient green jade not only has the ability to suck blood, but also has the effect of instantly healing injuries! However, the young man was completely unaware and looked nervously out the window. For a long time, he didn't see anything strange. Just as the young man breathed a sigh of relief, he saw

A black shadow quickly passed by outside the house and flew towards the mountain, followed closely by an old man with white hair and beard. He also followed. The young man did not dare to look more and lay down on the edge of the wall, shivering.

.

When all the movement disappeared, the young man felt as if he had just experienced a big battle. He was sweating profusely and leaned against the wall in exhaustion, panting slightly. He spread out the sapphire in his hand again and looked at it curiously, as if he felt something.

, the ancient jade shone again, but the light was less intense than before. The young man felt waves of warmth coming from his hands, and his whole body felt much better.

Half a month ago, he went into the mountains alone to search for medicine, and accidentally picked up this jade pendant under a rock on the top of Qianzhang Peak. However, strange things happened one after another.

The boy's village is called Luoxing Village. It is located at the northernmost point of the Kyushu territory. It is so remote that it can be said that no outsiders have been seen for many years.

At that time, the young man only thought that this ancient jade was very beautiful. It was covered with dragon patterns, teeth and claws, and it looked quite exquisite. He didn't think much about it, and took advantage of it and put it into the bag on his waist. But not long after he left the place, unexpectedly,

An avalanche occurred out of nowhere, covering up the whole place. It was so powerful that birds flew all over the sky at the top. The young man thought he would die, but somehow he landed at the foot of the mountain without any harm. From then on, he was unscathed.

It was fine for a few days, but it was not until a few days ago that he suddenly heard the shrill and piercing sound in the middle of the night. The young man realized that things were getting weirder and weirder. The ordinary ancient jade, except for the beautiful patterns, actually glowed for no reason.

And the closer the neighing and harsh sound gets, the brighter the light of the ancient jade becomes, as if the two are sensing something.

The young man once asked his mother and the adults in the village if he heard any strange noises at night, but everyone agreed and there was nothing strange. The young man thought he was hallucinating, but after a few days of verification, he found that the sound was only

He can hear it alone! The young man can conclude that it must be related to the ancient jade he picked up.

The strange noises in the past few days have already made the young man very upset. He fantasized that it was an ancient jade in his hand or an ominous object left in the mountains by a certain god in the past. He mistakenly took it and it caused some supernatural phenomena. However, he never thought about it.

I had the thought of throwing it away, as if the ancient jade was something I had in my possession. Someone went to the mountain tonight, and it must have something to do with the ancient jade. The young man sat there for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, with firm eyes.

He looked at the ancient jade in his hand and held it tightly.

The next moment he stood up, put on his coat, quietly opened the wooden door, and ran out of the house.

The ancient jade was carried tightly into the young man's arms, and the disappearing light lit up again, filling the young man's chest. The lines were all over his body, like meridians extending, clear and transparent. At the young man's elixir, a group of dark green light quietly submerged into him.

Inside his body, the young man still didn't notice anything strange and hurried forward.
