Under the Devil Wolf Peak, the original peaceful and peaceful village has disappeared. The villagers' original simple faces are filled with deep sadness. The previously well-proportioned houses have now become somewhat dilapidated, with ruins and tiles everywhere.
Only rows of new graves appeared in the open space not far from the village. It has been three months since the flying silver wolf attacked the village. During these three months, what happened to the small village
After earth-shaking changes, many women put down their needlework and picked up spears. Even those children who were not yet underage also put down their toys and picked up bows and arrows to go hunting because their men and their fathers had died in that incident.
But no matter what, life still has to go on.
"Ding Ding~~Ding Ding~~" Amidst the continuous beating sound, Yi Tianxing sat by the stove and helped Uncle Hong pull the bellows hard. In these three months, Yi Tianxing has also changed a lot.
, he no longer has the fun and naughtiness of the past, and no longer has the relaxation and carrying away of the past, but he has a bit more maturity and stability that is different from his age, and occasionally you can even see a trace of perseverance on his still immature face.
.
"The fire is too small, make it louder!" Uncle Hong's hoarse voice came. Yi Tianxing couldn't help but speed up the bellows, and a few large beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his handsome face.
, dripped on the hot ironware, and white smoke rose. In these three months, Yi Tianxing spent a large part of his time with Uncle Hong, helping Uncle Hong pull the bellows to make iron. His mother Liu Mengxin
I was very busy and often couldn't take care of him. Because of that incident, many villagers left sequelae and even lifelong disabilities. Just like the village chief Cai Zhong, although he saved his life, his internal organs were injured and his meridians were blocked. He was originally strong.
Now he has become a little weak and has to go to Liu Mengxin for medical treatment every now and then.
"Little guy, it will be the end of the year in a few days! You will be seven years old too!" Uncle Hong said while striking iron, and at the same time glanced at Yi Tianxing with his cloudy eyes.
"Yes!" Yi Tianxing said softly, but the original rhythm in his hands suddenly stagnated. Seven years old, in a few years, he will be seven years old. Seven years old, for all the children on the mainland
It can be said that it is an extremely extraordinary year, and it can even determine the year of their lives. Because in this year, their soul swords are about to awaken, and a large part of their future achievements will depend on the soul swords. It is like two people.
People, one is a prince and aristocrat, but has no talent for cultivation, and the other is a beggar on the street, but has an astonishing talent. After a few decades, maybe the identities of the two of them will be completely reversed. In mainland China
Above all, the strong are respected and force is supreme!!!
"Chichi~~" As the hot iron was immersed in the cold water, a puff of white smoke curled up and filled the small room.
"Okay, that's it for today!" Looking at the nearly forged iron sword in his hand, Uncle Hong said slowly. At the same time, he took off the wine gourd from his waist and raised his head to drink.
"Little guy, remember my words, there is not only one way to become strong!" While drinking, Uncle Hong said slowly and uncontrollably, his cloudy eyes suddenly became deep, "The most important thing is
Today is the first day of the year. The originally somewhat dead village has become more festive, and the faces of the villagers also have a long-lost smile. Yi Tianxing got up early in the morning, and then walked in the yard
After that incident, Yi Tianxing became extremely serious about practicing swordsmanship, and the time he spent practicing swordsmanship has doubled. Although it is still the most basic moves, it is also
It's already in shape.
"Huh~~" Yi Tianxing let out a long breath. He looked up at the rising sun. A firm look flashed in his eyes. At the same time, he held the long sword tightly with both hands. Today he did not talk to Mu Ming.
Let's go to practice swordsmanship outside the small village together, because he has a very important thing to do today, something related to his destiny.
"Tianxing, hurry up, it's almost time!" At this moment, a childish voice sounded outside the door, and at the same time, a chubby head stuck out from the gap in the door, with a tiger head and a tiger head, very cute. At this time, the Shen family next door
His son, Shen Qiu.
"Okay, I'll be right back!" Yi Tianxing adjusted his clothes, then placed his sword on the wall beside him, took a deep breath, and walked out of the house.
Today, the village chief Cai Zhong wants to test the soul power of all the seven-year-old children in the village to see which children have the talent to become swordsmen. After all, the resources of the small village are limited, so it is natural to use those limited resources to those who are the most talented.
Only in this way can the village have strong hope. Not long after, the two of them arrived at the village chief's house, where there were already nearly five or six children waiting.
"Ahem~~" After waiting for nearly half an hour and five or six more children arriving in twos and threes, the village chief Cai Zhong slowly walked out of the house. Today's Cai Zhong's physical condition is also not as good as before.
The originally burly and strong body has now become a little rickety, revealing a bit of an old look. Cai Zhong is nearly sixty years old. For ordinary people with a life span of only a hundred years, he has already entered old age.
Although his physical function is still very good due to years of practice, this serious injury has completely knocked him back to his original form. He probably will never have the chance to reach the sword master level in this life.
"I believe you also know the purpose of coming today. You are all the hope of the future of the village, especially this time the village has suffered such a heavy blow. After discussing with several elderly people in the village, I decided to leave the adult behind when he left.
I will use the money as tuition for the most talented swordsman among you to study in the school in the town!" Cai Zhong glanced at the fourteen teenagers in front of him one by one, his eyes full of hope.
"I won't say any more nonsense, let's do it one by one!" Cai Zhong took out a black bead from his arms. The dark surface was very smooth. "Put your hand on this bead, and at the same time concentrate on it.
Put all your attention on this bead!"
Yi Tianxing knew that this bead was called a soul-measuring bead, which could basically measure the strength of a person's soul. When practicing soul swords, the most important thing is the soul sword. The stronger the soul's power, the stronger the cultivation talent will be.
,vice versa.
The first child put his hand on the bead. After a moment, the originally black bead only glowed with a faint red light, just like the light of a firefly. Seeing this, Cai Zhong shook his head slightly, and
The child was also very disappointed. Only when the light reaches orange or above can he have the hope of becoming a swordsman. Obviously, this child has not reached it. At this time, Yi Tianxing's heart is extremely nervous, and even his body is trembling faintly.
"Next!" The children all took turns putting their hands on the bead, but the result was extremely disappointing. The strongest one among them only made the bead emit a ball of red light with a little orange.
.
"Buzz~~" At this moment, when the fifth child put his hand on the bead, a bright orange light suddenly shone.
"Okay, okay!" Seeing this light, Cai Zhong also shouted, his face full of joy. Orange, obviously this child's talent has reached the standard. And after hearing Cai Zhong's words, every child was also excited.
, the little face is full of smiles.
"He's Uncle Zhou's son!" Shen Qiu looked at the child and said in a low voice with a look of envy on his face.
"Next, Shen Qiu!" At this moment, Cai Zhong shouted next.
"Bless me, my ancestors!" Shen Qiu said nervously, as if he was still mumbling something.
"Put your hand up and concentrate!" Seeing Shen Qiu's appearance, Cai Zhong shook his head and said a reminder. Shen Qiu nervously put his hand on the bead.
"Buzz~~" Just for a moment, the originally dark beads suddenly bloomed into an extremely bright green, and the green contained a cyan color visible to the naked eye. At this moment, time seemed to be frozen, and everyone
All eyes were focused on the emerald green light, and even Cai Zhong's eyes widened.
"Blessed by our ancestors, it turns out to be cyan, it turns out to be cyan, hahaha~~" After a moment of silence, looking at the cyan light, Cai Zhong started to dance. His originally calm face turned crimson, and there was even a faint blur in his eyes.
A few crystal tears appeared.
"Chen Qiu, okay, okay, your future soul sword will most likely be at the Xuan level. Even if it is not at the Xuan level, it will at least be at the peak of the Huang level!" Cai Zhong excitedly patted Shen Qiu on the shoulder, as if he saw a treasure.
Even if it is not the Xuan level, the soul sword at the peak of the Huang level is already very powerful. In any case, Shen Qiu's talent is definitely outstanding. At this time, Shen Qiu is already
Dazzled by this sudden joy, he was standing aside blankly, obviously not reacting yet.
"Okay, you go and have a rest first!" Cai Zhong calmed down the excitement and joy in his heart, and his eyes towards Shen Qiu became particularly soft, "Next!"
Watching the people in front of him step forward one by one, Yi Tianxing felt extremely nervous. Even his breathing became heavier, and his small hands were clasped tightly, unaware of the pain. And the next few people Among them, only one person made the soul-measuring bead release orange light, but it was only the most ordinary orange light. The rest were all red. In other words, only three of the ten generals had become swordsmen. The possibility of becoming a soldier!
"Next, Yi Tianxing!" Cai Zhong looked at Yi Tianxing and said lightly. When he heard his name, Yi Tianxing took a deep breath, then walked to Cai Zhong with firm steps and looked at Looking at the soul-measuring bead placed in front of him, his heart fell into a void. He knew that his dreams, ideals, and hopes were completely pinned on this small soul-measuring bead at this moment.
