Arknights is too real, right?

Xia Feng did not know Huang Yi, who had lost his father, but this did not prevent him from feeling very unhappy. Although he had no memory, in this martial arts world, drawing a sword to help was already fascinating.

As for Xiao Li, this kid was in a worse mood than him.

Although Xiao Li, who had lived alone in Qingyun Mountain since childhood, was not a cruel or evil person, he could not be called a compassionate hero.

For Xiao Li, the meaning of life and death is not that thorough, nor is it that important. If others respect him, he will smile in return. If others hinder him, he will directly take action.

Chivalrous and courageous, willing to take revenge, in a sense, Xiao Li truly has the purest heart of the martial arts.

According to Huang Yi, the gang that killed his father is very powerful in the town next door. It owns multiple pawn shops and bodyguard agencies and has hundreds of members.

However, Xiao Li and Xia Feng didn't hear the second half of the sentence at all. They only cared about where the gang was.

That night, the two of them left Huang's house and disappeared into the night.

That night was destined to be an extraordinary night.

The next morning, when they returned to Huang's house covered in blood, Huang Yi, who was in a depressed mood, had just finished cooking the porridge.

"Bata!"

Xiao Li threw a bloody head wrapped in cloth into the yard and said in a relaxed tone.

"Hey, we have avenged your father's revenge for you. This head belongs to that gang boss. You can take it to your father's grave and let him see it, or you can rest in peace."

Seeing this head, Huang Yi, who thought the two of them had returned home, was stunned.

"Did you... last night?"

Xia Feng wiped the blood from his face and said very seriously.

"It is only right to kill someone to pay for their life. Not only must they be repaid, but they must be repaid hundreds of times. Since you are unable to collect your debt now, we will help you collect it."

Afterwards, Huang Yi learned from his neighbors about the shocking case that happened in the next town.

Overnight, the powerful gang was brutally wiped out. From the pawn shop to the escort agency to the residence, there were corpses and rivers of blood all the way. The leader of the gang even had his head cut off.

After the great revenge was avenged, Huang Yi burst into tears.

After taking care of all the funeral arrangements, he returned to the yard and knelt down in front of Xia Feng and Xiao Li with a plop.

"Two heroes, you helped Huang avenge the murder of his father. From today on, Huang's life is yours. I am willing to work as a bull for you two to repay this kindness!"

Xiao Li picked his nose and said indifferently.

"It's okay to be a cow or a horse. I don't like riding things. By the way, can you make a sword?"

Huang Yi kneeled on the ground and replied very seriously.

"I have been studying with my father since I was a child. Although I am not as skilled as my father, if Master Xiao needs it, I will definitely do my best!"

"That's great, just help me forge a sword. I'm still waiting to go back and establish a sect."

After nodding heavily in agreement, Huang Yi looked at Xia Feng again.

"Xia Daxia, if you don't mind it, let Huang forge a sword for you. Although it is not enough to repay the favor, it can be regarded as a piece of my heart. If you have any request, as long as Huang can do it, he will go through fire and water."

Xia Feng stepped forward and helped Huang Yi, who was kneeling on the ground.

"I don't need a sword."

"But."

"It's really not necessary. Moreover, this matter is just something we can do with a little effort. You don't need to take it too seriously. Just help A Li forge a good sword."

Huang Yi wiped away his tears, his face full of emotion.

"Xiao DaXia, Xia DaXia, in my eyes, you are the real heroes!"

Xiao Li didn't care at all about such words and walked aside indifferently.

"You are not a hero, you should prepare to forge a sword as soon as possible."

Looking at Huang Yi's face, which was even greener than Xiao Li's, Xia Feng smiled.

"Huang Yi, it's fate that we met. The three of us are of the same age, so don't call him a hero. You can call him A Li and call me Brother Xia. That's convenient."

"good!"

Xiao Li next to him was unhappy again.

"Hey, hey, why do you think it's Ah Li when I'm here, and Brother Xia when you're here? No, Huang Yi, just listen to me and call him Ah Feng."

Some time later, Huang Yi began to seriously forge swords.

Xia Feng and Xiao Li had nowhere to go and could only stay at Huang Yi's house like two salted fish without dreams.

The three of them ate and lived together, and gradually their relationship became closer.

Xia Feng is like a big brother, Xiao Li is like the middle child who likes to get into trouble, and Huang Yi is the sensible and obedient younger brother.

In order to create a sword that could be called a heirloom treasure, Huang Yi devoted almost all his efforts. This long process also took several months.

Until heavy snow fell in the sky, the sword was finally cast.

With Huang Yi's craftsmanship, this sword is not enough to be called a so-called famous sword. At most, it can only be said to be stronger than most ordinary swords, but Xiao Li is very satisfied.

This was the first sword in his life, and it was also the sword handed down from generation to generation by the future head of Qingyun Sect. After getting it, he immediately named the sword [Qingyun Sword].

At this point, Huang Yi's great revenge was avenged, and Xiao Li also got the sword he dreamed of.

After the incident was completed, Huang Yi decided to leave this town full of sad memories and return to his mother's hometown, Syracuse.

Before leaving, Xiao Li didn't know which one he had picked up, so he suddenly proposed to invite Huang Yi to his Qingyun Mountain and treat it as a trip.

"Ah Yi, I don't know how long it will take before we meet again after this separation. Anyway, you are not in a hurry. You must come with us to see Qingyun Mountain. That is the place where I grew up. The scenery is very beautiful. When the time comes, Ah Yi and I The wind hunts for you to eat.”

After several months of getting along, the three of them have established a deep relationship. Faced with the separation, Huang Yi was naturally a little reluctant to part with them.

"Okay then, I will go with you to see the scenery of Qingyun Mountain."

"good!"

On the way back, they still walked and stopped as when they came. Although the weather was getting colder, because there were more people in the team, they felt warmer to each other.

When passing by a certain town, Huang Yi, who was following behind, stared at the Red Demon Sword behind Xia Feng and asked inadvertently.

"A Feng, the sword on your body is very special. Was it made by a famous master?"

When asked again about the sword he carried with him, Xia Feng only had confusion in his eyes.

"I don't know where they come from."

"So do they have names?"

Xia Feng shook his head gently.

"I don't remember. I have no memory before I came to Qingyun Mountain. I forgot everything except my own name."

In this chaotic era where heroes are everywhere, many bizarre things will happen, but Huang Yi is not too curious about this.

"It doesn't matter, Ah Feng, you will definitely remember it."

"Heh, maybe."

Xiao Li shouted from the front.

"Hey, why are you two walking so slowly? Come on, we will reach the foot of Qingyun Mountain after passing this town."

Faced with Xiao Li's urging, Huang Yi immediately chased after him.

"coming."

Just as Xia Feng was about to speed up and catch up, suddenly, a vendor selling small toys appeared on the passing street corner.

On the cart with all kinds of traditional small items from the Yan Kingdom, Xia Feng's eyes suddenly froze.

He saw a pinwheel made of paper standing on the edge of the cart.

There was fine snow falling in the sky, and pedestrians passed by in a hurry, as if witnessing the warmth and coldness of this troubled world, while the windmill rotated gently.

At this moment, the sound in Xia Feng's ears disappeared.

His eyes followed the windmill, and a large number of memories related to it flooded him instantly like a flood.

Until the three of them successfully climbed to the top of Qingyun Mountain, Xiao Li, who was very nervous, did not notice anything unusual about Xia Feng.

Huang Yi has been attracted by the beautiful scenery of Qingyun Mountain, and has been chatting excitedly with Xiao Li side by side.

After returning to the dilapidated thatched house at the top of the mountain, Xiao Li threw his luggage on the straw mat, took his beloved Qingyun Sword, and immediately started making gestures in the open space.

"Hehe, this sword is really good. Ah Feng, look at it. Bei Qiu Liyu's moves are much smoother."

After finishing a complete set of sword skills, Xiao Li suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Wait, I have a proposal!"

Huang Yi poked his head curiously.

"Ali, what do you propose?"

Xiao Li said thoughtfully.

"Both of my parents died when I was young. Ah Feng has no memory and is helpless. Now your father is also dead. In this case, aren't the three of us connected by the same disease?"

"Well, that seems to be the case."

"In that case, how about the three of us become brothers at the top of Qingyun Peak, witnessed by the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon?"

This proposal was immediately approved by Huang Yi.

"Okay, it's my greatest honor in this life to be able to become brothers with you and Ah Feng!"

Then, the impatient Xiao Li put away his sword, quickly ran to the edge of the cliff, chose a flat area, and waved to Xia Feng.

"A-Feng, A-Yi, come quickly, the three of us will sworn vows here."

"Ah? Don't you need to prepare?"

"What is there to prepare for? The important thing about sworn vows is not the ceremony, but the heart. You are right, Ah Feng."

Raising his head, Xia Feng's dazed expression finally revealed a smile.

But no one noticed that his smile at this moment was filled with too many complicated emotions.

"right."

At the top of Qingyun Peak, facing the vast sea of ​​clouds, three young men held a simple sworn ceremony.

Although simple and unpretentious, the emotions gathered at this moment are worth a thousand words.

Yes, they are brothers. In this era, they are dependent on each other and best friends.

However, for Xia Feng, this era is a dream after all, and he is just a passerby in this dream.

"Ayi."

"kindness?"

"You asked me before what the names of the knives and swords on my body are. Now I can answer you. The name of the sword is Shenyue and the name of the sword is Red Demon."

"ah?"

After saying that, Xia Feng took off the Shenyue Sword and the Red Demon Sword from his body and handed them directly to Huang Yi, who looked confused.

"Ayi, I want to ask you something,"

"What are you"

"You said that your hometown is Syracuse, right?"

"yes."

"When you go back, please help me bury Shenyue and Red Demon on a snowy mountain. This is the only thing I need you to do for me, please."

Upon hearing these inexplicable words, Huang Yi and Xiao Li were stunned at the same time.

"Hey, Ah Feng, what are you talking about? What's wrong with you?"

Xia Feng looked at Xiao Li and gazed at his young face with gentle eyes. At this moment, this face overlapped with that of his forgotten friend in his memory.

"Ali, I also want to ask you a favor."

Xiao Li frowned.

"Hey, what on earth do you want to do?"

Ignoring Xiao Li's questioning, Xia Feng said softly.

"A few years later, a purple-haired girl who is known as the Immortal will find you. She will ask you to help her find an adult."

"Huh? What the hell?"

"Ali, you must agree to that girl's request and accompany her to travel this beautiful and cruel world. Please forgive my selfishness."

Standing on the top of the mountain, Xia Feng was alone, having abandoned his sword.

Looking back on the past few months, he remembered the stories that happened during this era and did not want to forget them.

He moved lightly to the edge of the cliff, turned around, and remembered the appearance of Xiao Li and Huang Yi deeply in his mind.

At the same time, illusory light spots also appeared on his body.

"A Li, A Yi, all the banquets in the world come to an end. Although it is a bit sudden, we are about to say goodbye here. Please remember my words and never forget them."

Xiao Li stared at him and stretched out his hand.

"Hey, hey, what's going on with you? Hey, what are you going to do?"

Xia Feng showed a complex smile that was both satisfying, regretful, and filled with infinite longing.

"No need to look for me, don't worry, Huo Yu Xia Feng will not die. I just want to go back to the future and see them again. A Yi, I will see your sword tomb, A Li, I will see that Cherry blossom forest, the past is the future, the past is eternity, thank you, thank you."

Xia Feng's last voice floated into the sky, and his body jumped off the cliff with his last words.

The man fell in mid-air, and the light spots surrounded him. In an instant, his traces of this era turned into little bits of debris.

Using the last lingering power of his power, he entered the river of time again.

He didn't know whether the jumps had the necessary meaning, but whenever he recalled the past events at the last moment, he was very sure.

Huoyu Xiafeng, this trip is not in vain.

Because the distance between "home" is getting closer and closer.
