Chapter 274: Yanshan Town, Reentering Lingtian Dynasty
Pingtian Road is a straight road that starts from a mountain range and connects to a small town. Everyone is amazed when seeing this road for the first time: it is like a straight road that was carved out by someone.
Looking along this road, you can see a high mountain with many swords stuck on it.
Hundreds of Sword Sect disciples moved into the town, clamoring and talking about their lofty ideals. It was rumored that a hundred years ago, a heavy rain lasted for ten days and ten nights during the Chitian Dynasty, flooding the Pingtian Road and turning it into a straight lake.
The disciples of the Sword Sect, each holding a sword, mobilized to drain the water with sword energy. It took only fifteen days to drain all the water, but they also left various traces of sword energy along the way.
Legend has it that…
Fly over this road, climb to the top of the mountain, then insert your sword, make a great wish, and you can transform into a human form in your dream... You can be called a great man of your generation.
That is what many Sword Sect disciples look forward to.
Day two.
The so-called trial began.
Li Changxiao looked at the vigorous young men, laughed loudly and went out. He equipped his sword and climbed a high mountain. He first shouted the teachings of sages and then recited the famous sayings of the Sword Sect.
Then, he jumped down from the mountain.
He stepped on the flying sword and flew towards the end of the Pingtian Road.
The sight of wanting to fly across this road, fight with the earth, and compete with the sky for glory is exciting enough to make one's blood boil.
Li Changxiao was lying on the top of a mountain with a smile on his lips.
This is the meaning of inheritance.
This is the time when reform is in full swing!
Even if I fail, I will have no regrets.
"Hahaha, it's me, Zhou Xiong!"
Then I saw a man in white clothes, who jumped off the top of the mountain, stepped on a flying sword, and glided on the sword with his inner strength... He wanted to cross the flat road, reach that high peak, insert his own sword, and leave his own dream.
In the first three hundred meters, his sword drew a steady arc and there was hope of climbing the mountain. After four hundred meters, there was interference from the sword energy. After five hundred meters, the sword became unstable and began to clang.
You need to fly to reach this flat road.
Because the sword energy below is too heavy, it is the sword energy accumulated day by day by the sword masters for hundreds of years.
The Pingtian Road trial requires the disciples to find a high peak by themselves, climb to the top of the mountain, and then fly into the sky on a sword to the peak at the end.
"Zhou Xiong! Choose a mountain to land quickly! Forced flight is not advisable!"
A disciple of the Sword Sect saw that the situation was not right and shouted anxiously.
"Damn... almost..."
The sword sect disciple named Zhou Xiong still refused to give up. In the end, the sword shook and fell from the ground, about to be shattered by the sword energy.
Sudden.
A breeze blew and blew him to the top of a mountain.
Escaped this fatal disaster.
The trial continues.
Following Zhou Xiong, the disciples of the Sword Sect remained fearless. They climbed to the top of the mountain, each riding their swords and rising into the wind. The youthful spirit on their bodies seemed to pierce the sky.
A swordsman named "Liu San" succeeded. He crossed the Pingtian Road, landed on the highest peak, climbed to the top, and inserted his sword.
The aspirations we set have manifested in dazzling colors, which is the most proud and glorious thing in the world.
It's getting dark.
The Sword Sect disciples dispersed again.
Li Changxiao flew to the highest peak and looked at the long swords stuck on the mountainside.
Those passionate dreams were engraved on this mountain along with their swords.
Li Changxiao found a flat ground and sat down.
Watching the setting sun.
It was originally a lonely scene full of sorrow and sadness, but because of those young dreams, it was given some indescribable vitality.
"Yes."
"The world is flourishing."
Li Changxiao exclaimed.
I used to think that my youthful arrogance was childish.
Now looking back.
If the world lacks this youthful spirit, it would be too dull.
He drank with the setting sun, and slept for days and nights, with the whirring mountain wind as his companion, and snakes, insects and animals as his companions.
Wait until the dream wakes up.
Then he left quietly.
……
Because the terrain of this place with no entrance or exit has been destroyed, Yanjia Village has also been connected to the outside world. Now it has become a small town in the Chitian Dynasty, named "Yanshan Town".
Generations change.
Since Li Changxiao came to Pingtian Road, he naturally stopped by to take a look. The town is now extremely prosperous, and the past events have almost left no trace under the erosion of time.
There are nearly a thousand households in the town, and there is a wide river outside the town, which was dug with the help of disciples from the Sword Sect. It is this river that officially connects Yanjia Village with the outside world and turns it into Yanshan Town. It can barely be considered a rich place with abundant resources. Merchants often come here in small boats to do all kinds of business with local residents.
There is almost no trace of the former figure.
He went to the market and wandered around, but no one recognized him and no one greeted him.
He just walked like this, quietly.
Then he left quietly and walked towards that secluded place, hoping to find the bamboo house where he once lived.
suddenly.
His face lit up with delight. There really was one. Although the bamboo building had changed greatly in appearance, it still had some of its former charm. It must have been repaired many times and passed down from generation to generation.
He went over and knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door was a woman. "Who are you?" The woman looked at Li Changxiao with a puzzled look.
"I..." Li Changxiao felt a strange feeling for a moment.
"Oh, are you here to look for my husband? Come in and sit down first, I'll pour you a cup of tea." The woman led Li Changxiao into the house and sat down.
The woman went to heat up the tea. Li Changxiao sat on the bamboo chair and looked around. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Revisiting the old place, people and things are different."
"Sister-in-law, this bamboo house looks quite old. It should be inherited from our ancestors, right?" Li Chang asked with a smile.
"No." The woman said, "It has been abandoned for who knows how long. This place is remote and no one wants to live here. Only my family liked this bamboo house, so he went to the town's adults and bought it for a few taels of silver."
Li Changxiao nodded, "Then do you know who the previous owner of this bamboo building was?"
The woman laughed and said, "It's been so many years, and I still know these things."
"Well, just drink your tea while waiting. I guess he will be here soon..." The woman finished making the tea and turned around.
But there was no sign of him anymore.
"Thank you for your hospitality, sister-in-law. I'll be leaving first." The man's words seemed to still linger in the air.
"How strange..." The woman scratched her head, not quite remembering whether someone had really been here just now.
Li Changxiao unscrewed the wine gourd, took a sip of the bitter wine, and left Yanjia Village.
Now it is Yanshan Town.
He has many friends.
But I have almost no friends.
……
A month later.
Li Changxiao set foot in the Lingtian Dynasty.
