In the twenty-seventh year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, which is now known as 1762, a baby boy was born in the home of an Orion in the mountains of Liaodong. ([] ) The child¡¯s father¡¯s surname was Zuo. In order to name the child, he went to the county town a hundred miles away and found a fortune teller to give the child a name.
The fortune teller said, your son is very short of water in his life, so I have to find two good words with water in it for him to make his life more blessed. Later, the teacher wrote the word "Cloud Pool" on the paper and explained that cloud is the source of rain, so it is a good word that means water. As for the word "Chi", the word "Chi" means water, and whether it is a big or small pool, there will eventually be water in it, so the word "Chi" is naturally the best.
After receiving this rather elegant name, the child's father went home happily. From then on, the boy had a name, Zuo Yunchi.
Zuo Yunchi has been practicing martial arts with his father since he was three years old. Although it is only some superficial skills that are not popular, he has managed to strengthen his body and be immune to all diseases. By the time he was ten years old, the boy had developed strong muscles and an extraordinary physique. In addition, he was naturally stronger than ordinary people. Even at a young age, he could easily kill a half-grown roe deer. Every hunter nearby knew him.
This family of three originally lived a carefree life, but luck and misfortune depended on each other. If the good times last too long, God will always find some misfortune to tease the mortals.
That year Zuo Yunchi had just turned fifteen, when a wolf disaster suddenly broke out in the mountains. These hungry wolves came from nowhere in the mountains. Every one of them was so hungry that their eyes were red and they would kill the animals on sight. It bites people it sees. Seven hunters in the mountains were killed within a few days, causing panic and no one dared to go out hunting.
But those hungry wolves refused to leave. Seeing that the nearby hunters stopped coming out, they fortunately followed the smell and rushed into the hunters' homes to kill people and eat meat. In just a few days, three families in a row were bloodbathed, and no one, including men, women, and children was spared.
Zuo Yunchi¡¯s father saw that the situation was not good. He hurriedly fled down the mountain with his wife and son, intending to avoid the storm and make other plans. Unexpectedly, the three of them encountered a pack of wolves on the way down the mountain, and the number actually reached more than a hundred.
Old man Zuo refused to surrender. With his refined skills, he fought to the death with a pack of wolves, trying to find a way out to allow his wife and children to escape. But the wolf pack in front of us was too large. He could kill one but not ten. After a bloody battle regardless of his life, Old Man Zuo finally could not withstand the attack of the wolves and died tragically under the sharp teeth of the hungry wolves.
Then a pack of wolves pounced on the mother and son on the side. Zuo Yunchi tried his best to protect his mother, but no matter how powerful he was, he only had two hands. Within a moment, his mother also died there. .
Zuo Yunchi's eyes suddenly turned red when he saw this, and he didn't even think about whether he could escape unscathed. Instead, he rushed into the wolf pile like a mad tiger, wanting to kill all the wolves to avenge his parents. But how could he, a child who had just turned fifteen, gain the upper hand among hundreds of hungry wolves? In just the blink of an eye, he suffered multiple injuries on his body, and he was about to fall to the ground due to exhaustion.
Exactly at this time. Suddenly there was a whistle on the mountain, and the noise of footsteps was heard, and a group of officers and soldiers surrounded them. Looking around, this group of officers and soldiers numbered at least seventy or eighty people. They were dressed in Manchurian white flag uniforms. They were actually royal soldiers under the personal command of the emperor.
These dozens of officers and soldiers are all extremely brave. Obviously they are all good hunters. The sound of swords and guns being brandished could be heard. In an instant, the crowd completely dispersed the wolves and killed more than twenty hungry wolves.
The surrounding hunters came out after hearing the news, and after asking, they found out that this group of officers and soldiers came from the capital, and on orders from their superiors, they went to a pass not far away to deal with some matters. Everyone was originally of Manchu descent and had been good at hunting since childhood. When they were passing through this place, they suddenly became interested in finding some game to satisfy their craving, so they set up camp and headed into the mountains. Unexpectedly, they accidentally ran into the three members of the Zuo family who had died. One scene.
The hunters had known the Zuo family for a long time, and when they saw the Zuo family's unfortunate death, they all sighed and complained that God shouldn't have done this. Several families felt sorry for Zuo Yunchi because his parents died when he was still young, and they all wanted to take him in. However, Zuo Yunchi hated this ruthless forest and said he didn't want to stay here anymore.
The leader of the army admired Zuo Yunchi very much. He felt that this child was full of blood and had a heroic spirit in his bones. Moreover, this child was able to contend with a pack of wolves for such a long time at such a young age, which showed that he was very skilled, so he was interested in taking him under his command.
Zuo Yunchi had long wanted to see what was going on outside the forest. After burying his parents, he packed up some things for use and followed the group of officers and soldiers back to Beijing.
After a few years, Zuo Yunchi lived in Beijing for four years. All the soldiers took care of him since he was the youngest, so there were no hard tasks assigned to him. In the past four years, in addition to learning some martial arts from the military commander, he only spent time drinking and drinking.I'm still a little interested in the meat thing.
During the past four years, he felt that his life was boring. The so-called world turned out to be even more boring than life in the mountains. What he saw every day were intrigues, intrigues, overt and covert attacks, and endless filthy words. He felt that he was completely unsuitable for such a life, and really wanted to go back to the mountains to live a quiet life.
On this day, he asked for leave and went to the mountains to the west of the city to play in the water and fish. By chance, he met an old man by the stream. The old man was dressed in blue robes, had a silver beard and white hair, and had an immortal air, which made people involuntarily feel awe.
I saw the old man standing on the edge of a dense forest, and suddenly took out something from the cyst. Zuo Yunchi took a closer look and saw that it was a fat rooster.
I thought that the old man was hiding in the wilderness to eat meat. Unexpectedly, he took out a knife and cut the chicken's neck. As he walked, he sprinkled the chicken's blood on the ground. When the blood dried, the old man cut the dead chicken. Throw it aside.
Zuo Yunchi had never seen anything like this before. He found it interesting and curious, so he took a few steps closer to watch. The old man had long seen Zuo Yunchi playing here. When he saw Zuo Yunchi coming, he said to him with a serious face: "My child, this place is very dangerous. Get dressed quickly and go home."
Zuo Yunchi thought, why is this place with beautiful mountains and clear waters so dangerous? This old man looks a bit like a Taoist. Could it be that he is hiding in this uninhabited place to practice magic?
He was just about to speak to the old man when he suddenly heard a ghostly scream in the forest, and a strange man with red eyes and fangs jumped out. The weird man came close to the chicken blood that had fallen on the ground, raised his nose to sniff it, and suddenly became even more manic. Then without any explanation, he turned his hands into claws and grabbed the old man's face.
The old man's skills were quite extraordinary. When he saw the strange person coming, he advanced instead of retreating. He held a sharp knife and hit the strange person.
Zuo Yunchi suddenly felt furious and thought that this weirdo was really unreasonable. How could he be so cruel to such an old man? Even though his skills are not inferior to those of young people, treating an old man like this is a bit too arrogant. Thinking of this, Zuo Yunchi immediately put on his clothes, picked up his saber and joined the battle group.
An old man and a young man had a fierce fight with the weirdo. The weirdo was completely different from an ordinary person. He jumped like flying and was extremely powerful. Zuo Yunchi had no ability to compete with him. If the old man hadn't come to the rescue several times, I'm afraid he would have been killed on the spot by the weirdo.
Speaking of which, the old man's strength was much inferior to that of the weirdo, but he was nimble in his steps and good at dodging, and with Zuo Yunchi helping him contain him, the weirdo couldn't hurt him for a while. Whenever he encountered an opportunity, the old man would stab his body with a sharp blade, drawing blood, and attack his internal organs with every move. After a moment of burning the incense, the strange man was completely bruised and scarred.
Seeing that the strange man was defeated, Zuo Yunchi wanted to stop attacking and persuade him to leave, but unexpectedly, the old man attacked even more fiercely, obviously intending to put him to death.
After beating for a while, the weirdo fell to the ground due to the heavy injuries. The old man couldn't help but go up and twist his neck, then cut his body into pieces with random knives, took out kerosene and poured it on top of the body, and threw a huozhezi on top of the body. The oil immediately burned the body to ashes.
Zuo Yunchi stood on the side and looked dumbfounded. He never expected that this kind-faced old man could be so ruthless. Could it be that he helped the wrong person?
When he was feeling confused, the old man pulled him aside with a smile and praised him for his chivalrous spirit. Without his help, it would be difficult to tell whether the old man would live or die today.
The old man told Zuo Yunchi that his name was Jin Qiming, and he was a wandering wandering wild crane. He is neither a monk nor a Taoist, but he has practiced martial arts since he was a child in order to fight injustices in the world. Afterwards, Jin Qiming told the identity and origin of the weirdo again. Zuo Yunchi was also informed about the origin, harm, and evil deeds of the blood demon. Jin Qiming said that he has been hunting blood monsters since he was forty years old. However, such monsters are rare in the world. To date, he has only killed two.
After listening to this, Zuo Yunchi suddenly realized that there was actually a blood demon in the world.
The old man and the young man had a good conversation and fell asleep on the ground in the forest that night. When he got up the next day, Jin Qiming wanted to say goodbye to this little friend, but Zuo Yunchi admired the old man's outstanding martial arts and chivalrous spirit, and he was already fed up with the boring life in the capital, so he begged Jin Lao to accept it. He became his disciple, and from then on they walked among the mountains and rivers, so that they could take care of each other.
Jin Qiming admired this child very much. Seeing Zuo Yunchi's sincerity, he twisted his beard and nodded with a smile. Immediately Zuo Yunchi gave Mr. Jin the master-disciple ceremony, and then followed the old man.
This journey lasted for ten years. The master and the apprentice traveled everywhere, sometimes living in the mountains and fields for several months, sometimes wandering among the people to help the strong and the weak, and their lives were very happy.
In the past ten years, Jin Qiming has taught all his skills to others, and Zuo Yunchi is also very talented and can reveal everything at once. In just a few years, he understood everything that Mr. Jin taught him, and he had the potential to surpass his master.
This year, the two traveled to the border of Sichuan. Occasionally, they heard people talking about zombies in the Yajiang area. More than 20 people died in one month, scaring the local people away from living there.
Jin Qiming felt that this matter was quite strange, maybe it was the blood demon. He has been wandering around all year round just to find clues about the blood demon. When he heard about such a thing, he naturally refused to ignore it.
So he immediately rushed to Yajiang with his apprentice to see what happened. But neither the master nor the disciple expected that a shocking and shocking change would occur during this trip. (To be continued)
