Every day when I wake up, I see the leader taking medicine

Ji Shu really took Dan Que to the giant stone mouth that can lead to the valley.When Dan Que got there, he hesitated.In the dark night, Ji Shu couldn't see Dan Que's expression clearly, thinking that he didn't believe that he could leave Ruling Mountain, so he boasted proudly: "I went out yesterday! Walk straight for two hours from here, and you can reach From a village!" He said while pushing Dan Que outside.

In fact, after Ji Shu left yesterday, Dan Que came here and found this gap.However, he was different from Ji Shu, he got out from the boulder, looked at the road outside, and then got back—he didn't believe that the people who entered Lingshan would leave a passage so carelessly for them to go out. It must be a trap, but I don't know what kind of trap it is.

Dan Que asked suspiciously: "Have you really gone out?"

Ji Shu nodded desperately: "Yes, the people in the village even made me some bread. I slept in the village last night."

Dan Que asked coldly, "Then why did you come back?"

Ji Shu was taken aback, and said, "I, I want to take you out of this ghostly place together."

Dan Que said again: "There are more than [-] people in this valley, why me?"

Ji Shu pouted: "Because you saved me." Before Dan Que could reply, he pushed Dan Que into the gap: "Go in quickly. It will be a disaster if someone finds out at dawn."

Dan Que broke away from his hand and took a step back.

Dan Que is now the same age as Ji Shu, but he went up the mountain three years earlier than Ji Shu, so he also had three more years of cruel experience.It is a child's nature to find a partner, and he has had friends over the years, but there are no friends in Chixia Cult, because they are either you or me in the end.Dan Que once had a friend in the past. From the age of seven to ten, the two have been fighting side by side, defeating enemies together, and finding food to share together.However, when they were ten years old, they were attacked by a team of three teenagers in a small trial. At that time, only one person had to fall down to end the trial. The three teenagers were all very skilled, and Dan Que was concentrating on When dealing with those people, he didn't take care of his own partners behind him, and gradually fell behind.Suddenly, his partner grabbed the dagger and stabbed him in the back of the unsuspecting man—in order to save his own life, the partner was nothing.At that time, Dan Que was also a Fuda, so he managed to avoid the dagger, only to be scratched on his arm.Then he killed one of the three, ending the trial, and soon lost his partner - at the beginning of the next trial, he killed the man immediately.

Dan Que was very defensive, worried that Ji Shu would attack him while he was not being sneaked, and also worried that there was some trap in the gap, so he said, "You go in first."

Ji Shu didn't think so much, so he quickly got into the gap beside the boulder.Dan Que hesitated for a moment, but after all he was a little curious, so he followed in.

The two passed through the boulder, and soon a narrow mountain road appeared in front of them.It was very dark, and by the moonlight, Dan Que couldn't see where the road led.Ji Shu turned around and filled the gap with some gravel and branches, turned his head and suppressed his excitement and said to Dan Que: "Go straight along this road, and the road ahead will become wider, and if you go further, you will leave completely. Once you reach Mount Ling, you can find the village."

But Dan Que still hesitated: "Did you really go out? To the village?"

Ji Shu couldn't help nodding: "Really! Let's go quickly! It's bad if someone finds out!"

Dan Que hesitated for a long time, and finally followed Ji Shu out.

The two stopped all the way, because Dan Que was worried that there would be an ambush on the road.However, until the two left the mountain road, nothing unusual happened.So they walked faster and faster, and Dan Que didn't stay any longer.At dawn, the two children finally arrived at the village that Ji Shu had been to.

Ji Shu said proudly, "I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Dan Que was abducted to Ruling Mountain when he was four years old. He has almost no impression of the scene outside the mountain. Now when he suddenly sees an ordinary village, he feels vaguely familiar and more shocked. He can’t describe his feelings for a while. Feeling.Ji Shu walked around him happily, but he didn't say a word, just staring at the fences of these ordinary wooden houses in a daze.

That night, a kind-hearted family took them in and let them stay overnight.

Early the next morning, Ji Shu woke up and found that Dan Que was not in the room.He walked outside the house and saw Dan Que practicing in the yard, he couldn't help but wondered: "We have all left Chixia's teaching, why do you still want to practice?"

When Dan Que saw him coming out, he put the weapon away and found a place to sit in the yard. Ji Shu walked over to him and sat down.After a while, Dan Que said, "What are you going to do next?"

Ji Shu said: "I made up my mind last night! We still have to go a long way. This place is too close to Ruiling Mountain. It will be a disaster if they catch them back. I have already asked the people in the village. It will take five days to walk from here to the nearest town, but we need to travel, so I made an agreement with them that we will do farm work for them for five days, and they will collect some silver and dry food for us. When we arrive in the city, we You can also find another job, earn some money and continue walking, running far away!"

Dan Que was silent for a while, then whispered: "Have we really left Ruling Mountain?"

Ji Shu nodded desperately: "I'm really gone! I won't go back again!" After saying that, he pointed to the hill not far away and said, "Look, it's that damn hill! We've already come out!"

Dan Que fell silent again.After a long time, Dan Que suddenly stood up, picked up the weapon and continued to practice.Ji Shu stared at him blankly: "Why do you still practice? Don't you...don't want to leave Rulingshan?"

Dan Que shook his head and said: "No. But no matter what, I want to become stronger, stronger, and the strongest." He raised his weapon to the sun, squinted his eyes at the thin blade, and said: "I want to defeat the leader of Chixia Cult, defeat those Demon Lords. From then on, no one will dare to bully me again."

Ji Shu was stunned for a while, then laughed happily: "Okay, after you become stronger, you have to protect me."

Dan Que gave him a cold look.Ji Shu was a little embarrassed by him, thinking he was displeased, and was about to smooth things over, but Dan Que nodded slightly, looked away, and started practicing again.

"Hello." Ji Shu sat on the fence, shaking his legs and smiled at Dan Que: "Remember my name, my name is Lin Shuwen."

In this way, Ji Shu and Dan Que stayed temporarily in the village. In the early morning and evening, Dan Que would find a place where there was no one to practice. During the day, they would help the villagers with work in exchange for food.

Four days passed in a blink of an eye.

That night, in the hut vacated by kind people for them, Dan Que counted the food, water and a few copper coins they got, while Ji Shu sewed clothes clumsily under the candle——Dan Que was They damaged their clothes while practicing, and it was getting cold soon. They had no money to buy new clothes, so they had to mend the holes in the clothes to prevent the wind from leaking in.

In fact, they didn't get much. After counting back and forth seven or eight times, Dan Que put down the things in his hands and sat next to Ji Shu, saying, "Lin Shuwen."

Ji Shu bit off the rope in his hand, and looked at him slightly sideways: "Huh?"

Dan Que shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm calling you."

Ji Shu laughed happily.

The two blew out the candles, squeezed into a small bed, and were about to go to sleep, when suddenly Dan Que jumped off the bed, staring vigilantly outside, Ji Shu pulled the quilt halfway, and wondered: "What's wrong?"

Dan Que whispered: "Someone is outside."

Suddenly there was a bang, and the door of their room was blown open, and a gust of wind came in, but there was no one outside the door.Ji Shu was taken aback, clutching the quilt tightly: "W-what happened?"

Dan Que went in without knowing it, and stared out the door nervously.

They still didn't see anyone, but a deep voice came in: "Ten days are up, and the trial should end tonight."

Ji Shu and Dan Que were startled at the same time: That's San Luan's voice!

Ji Shu retreated into the corner in fear, Dan Que was calmer than him, but his trembling voice betrayed him: "Where are you?"

Sanluan's low laughter came from outside again.The voice that seemed to be far away but also seemed to be close to the ears made the two teenagers shudder.Ji Shu cried: "No... I don't want to go back again..."

San Luan never showed up, and the door of their room shook slightly due to the wind, making uncomfortable creaking noises, testing the courage of the two teenagers.Ji Shu reached out to the bedside cabinet, touched the scissors he used to sew clothes, quietly grabbed them in his hand, hid them behind him, and then moved out of the bed bit by bit—he never wanted to go back to the past He knew that he was powerless, but he still wanted to hit a stone with an egg, and fight San Luan to the death.

Sanluan's voice came to the ears of the two teenagers from far and near: "The trial is over, I'm here to pick up people back to Lingshan. However, there are nine children in the valley who have passed the test and won the favor of the leader." , so there is only one seat left. You two, I can only bring back one."

Dan Que and Ji Shu were taken aback at the same time.A great hatred was burning in Ji Shu's heart, and he had already climbed off the bed, holding the scissors tightly in his hands, and slowly approached the door.

Suddenly, a gust of wind with internal force came in from outside the house, directly hitting the candle by the bedside, and the flame ignited, slowly illuminating the small room.San Luan said with a smiling voice: "That's it, use the scissors in your hand, kill him, or let him kill you. Of the two of you, only one can be taken back by me."

Ji Shu and Dan Que were startled at the same time, and Ji Shu had already moved to Dan Que's side.Dan Que looked down, and saw that Ji Shu, who was beside him, was holding a pair of scissors, and the sharp ends of the scissors were facing him.

Dan Que stared at Ji Shu in disbelief, Ji Shu was stunned for a moment, knowing that he had misunderstood, he lifted up the scissors to explain, but Dan Que rushed forward, crushed him to the ground, and snatched him away effortlessly. scissors in his hand.Dan Que always wanted to be quick and hard when he shot, but after he grabbed the scissors, he didn't stab Ji Shu's throat with him immediately, but hesitated for a while while strangling Ji Shu's neck.

Ji Shu wanted to explain, but he strangled his neck so hard that he couldn't make a sound, so he pulled his hand hard.As soon as he pulled, Dan Que choked even tighter, looking at him with murderous intent.

Sensing his killing intent, Ji Shu was taken aback for a moment, and then felt angry: he risked his life and went back to Ruling Mountain just to bring Dan Que out.And Dan Que didn't believe him from the beginning to the end, and even wanted to kill him!

He became angry and hated, and there was a killing intent in his heart: To take back the scissors, rather than being killed by Dan Que, it would be better to kill him the other way around!He began to struggle hard, and Dan Que was also getting harder and harder. Ji Shu had always been lax in training, and his strength and martial arts were far inferior to Dan Que's, so he was pinned down by him and couldn't move.Dan Que finally raised the scissors and pressed the blade to Ji Shu's neck. After hesitating for a moment, his hand gradually increased his strength. The blade cut Ji Shu's neck, and blood flowed down his neck to the ground.

Ji Shu felt a tingling pain, and began to feel hopeless and frightened—this time, he was really going to die.

Dan Que seemed to have exhausted all his strength in order to restrain Ji Shu. He held the scissors with light and heavy hands, and used the blunt blade to cut Ji Shu's neck bit by bit - even his calf There is a sharper dagger stuck in it.

Ji Shu felt his blood was flowing, but he had no strength to resist.He hated more and more, and stared at Dan Que with hatred in his eyes.Dan Que didn't look at him, but stared at the scissors in his hand.Suddenly, he blinked his eyes, and a tear fell from his eyes, falling straight into Ji Shu's eyes.Ji Shu closed his eyes suddenly due to the invasion of foreign objects, his eyes became sore for a while, and tears came out.He opened his eyes, looked at Dan Que for a while, then closed his eyes again, and the extent of his struggle became smaller and smaller.

After a while, Dan Que cut Ji Shu's neck with an ugly wound of varying shades.Maybe Ji Shu didn't move anymore, so he thought Ji Shu was dead, so he threw the scissors away, got up and walked out of the room, and shouted to the outside: "I've killed him, take me back!"

Ji Shu lay on the ground, but did not die.However, he lost his strength and didn't want to struggle any more.He heard footsteps outside, it was Dan Que walking away gradually.

After some time, he felt light around him, as if someone was shining a candle into his eyes, but he didn't move.Suddenly, he felt as if someone was pulling his neck, he opened his eyes with all his strength, and saw San Luan squatting beside him expressionlessly, holding his jade in his hand.He wanted to reach out to snatch the jade back, but he couldn't lift his hand.

Sanluan hooked his fingers hard, and pulled the blood-stained jade off Ji Shu's neck, and pinched it in his palm.He asked Ji Shu: "Do you want to live?"

He asked Ji Shu again: "Do you want to become stronger? Do you want to take back your things?"

Ji Shu slowly closed her fuzzy eyes, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Later, the leader of Chixia Sect rewarded Dan Que with that jade pendant as a trophy.Later, Dan Que became the Demon Lord of the Chixia Cult.

But Ji Shu and Dan Que took completely different paths: he was rescued by San Luan and no longer needed to participate in any trials. San Luan put him outside the teaching and taught him martial arts himself. Lax and serious, he started to learn martial arts. At the age of 16, San Luan pushed him onto the bed and entered his body hard. At the age of 22, the whereabouts of Demon Lord Qingli and Demon Lord Blazing Flame were unknown. He was taken back to Islam by San Luan and became Demon Lord Lingyu.

Later, he met a boy named Han Jin.He plotted against him, he poisoned him, but that person was not angry with him, every time he made a trick, that person would obediently get in, and rescued him time and time again, and killed him when they were both poisoned at the same time. The only antidote was given to him.

He knew why Dan Que liked Han Jin.From a very young age, he longed for the day when there would be someone who would do everything for him.Even if he is not desperate, at least, at least, when he is desperate, he will give him a hand instead of pushing him down.He is like this, and so is Dan Que.It's a pity that he met such a person, but he was one step behind Dan Que.

Later, on the night when the sky was full of fire on Ruling Mountain, he said in Sanluan's ear: "I fell in love with someone."

Sanluan looked at him with burning eyes: "Why? If he kills you, I will save you."

He froze for a moment, bent his eyes and smiled, "No, you hurt me, he saved me."

He stabbed the knife into San Luan's heart, ended everything in the past ten years with his own hands, and went down a small path, but was stopped by Han Jin on the way.Han Jin asked him, where do you want to go.He asked Han Jin if he would like to go with him, but Han Jin hesitated and did not answer.At that moment, he wanted to say, it doesn't matter if you don't come with me, as long as you want, you can take me away.But in the end, he smiled and said, it has nothing to do with you.

When Han Jin left, he turned his head, grabbed the jade pendant on his chest and said, "Mine." Looking at Han Jin's leaving figure, he said, "Mine." Unfortunately, this time, no one let go of their hands Give it back to him.

---------

This morning, Han Jin had just woken up when a disciple sent a letter, saying that it was brought back by a disciple who was entrusted to go out on errands, and that it was sent to Han Jin of the Wulun Sect by name.Han Jin asked strangely: "Who gave me something?"

The disciple said: "I don't know, the person who delivered the things is called Lin Shuwen."

Han Jin thought for a while, then shook his head: "I don't remember anyone with that name." He took the envelope, touched the contents inside, couldn't help being startled, and immediately tore the envelope open.He poured out two jade pendants from the envelope.

That day, Han Jin sat alone on the hillside for a long, long time.
