I'm very sorry, the following story can no longer be narrated in the first person, because I am finished. Life is sometimes like a set of distorted mirrors. When using the first person, you often cannot see your true face. Only by changing your perspective can you see the truth.
.For example, third person.
In the Wei Kingdom of the Eastern Continent, all children must undergo an adult ceremony at the age of seven to become a perfect human being with a twenty-year-old body and a thirty- to forty-year-old mind. This custom allows Huzhou to continuously provide Tianren Kingdom with
A large number of first-class laborers and troops. And there are no elderly people over fifty years old in Huzhou, because everyone will die naturally before the age of fifty after the adult ceremony. Therefore, the government stipulates that all children must
The government arranges for a partner to get married and quickly give birth to the next generation...
Xiaobu is the first child in his family, so his parents are actually only fifteen years old, but they look more than thirty years old. Since his birth, Xiaobu has been growing up under the expectations of his family. But his desire
There is a big difference between the desire and the desire of his family. From the time he can remember, Xiaobu has had a desire to fly in the vast blue sky, hoping that he can contact the endless new world instead of doing what his ancestors have always done for thousands of years.
What we are doing - carrying on the family lineage.
Of course, if big brother and big sister didn't show up, Xiaobu would still accept God's arrangement and become an adult before tomorrow comes. But now he has made up his mind to fight to the end. But he didn't expect...
Xiao Bu could hardly believe what was happening in front of him. The big brother who promised to protect him was killed in one round. The old man holding the lantern took a bite of the corpse lying on the ground with disdain, then quickly floated over and grabbed Xiao Bu.
, said gloomily: "Children, just be good and it will be fine, otherwise..." What is this, threatening children.
In the square in front of the church in the city, Xiao Bu met his parents and his kind-hearted priest and uncle. In addition, there were many uncles and aunts whose names he didn't know. Maybe many of them were just the age of his brothers and sisters...
There is a huge cross in the center of the square, covered with strange symbols. It seems to be an altar for the coming-of-age ceremony. However, there are piles of dry firewood under the altar. Is this a coming-of-age ceremony or a barbecue party?
"Xiao Bu, come here quickly." The uncle of the priest smiled kindly and stretched out his big hand to Xiao Bu: "Hurry and tell uncle why you want to run away. Look, it's already eleven o'clock, and in a little while you will be seven years old.
It's your birthday, good kids shouldn't play outside for too long, everyone is worried about you."
The uncle's words made Xiaobu feel hot, so he said pitifully: "Uncle, don't be angry if I told you."
"Okay, uncle, don't be angry." The uncle picked up Xiaobu and put him on the cross.
"Xiaobu hates becoming an adult."
"Why?" Several uncles walked up and wrapped ropes around Xiao Bu's body. They were really a bunch of strange uncles and aunts.
Xiaobu raised his head and looked at the farthest star in the sky: "When I was very young, I felt that before I grew up, I would grow wings and fly to far, far away places. Recently, I have been thinking about it every day.
I have such a dream. I heard from my elder brother that this is a dream..." (Already completely tied up)
Xiaobu's words immediately caused a commotion in the whole place, and many people around him even cried out in surprise. Maybe they had all had such a dream.
The priest's uncle's face suddenly darkened. He turned to Xiao Bu's parents and said, "Your children have indeed been possessed by the devil." The priest's huge body moved away, revealing the wooden face of Xiao Bu's father.
face.
Burn him to death, burn him to death!
Amid the cheers of the crowd, my father took the torch from the priest and staggered over.
"Dad, dad, please help me!" Xiaobu seemed to realize what was about to happen. When he saw his father, he shouted for help. A pair of little feet kicked helplessly in the void.
"You can't change our lives." Xiao Bu's father's voice was trembling. Maybe he was afraid of giving birth to such a child. But when he threw the torch onto the firewood, his hand softened, and only the firewood burned.
A small area around the edge of the pile. The priest next to him seemed a little dissatisfied with the man's weakness. He kicked him away and pointed his wand at the fire. Soon, the fire spread quickly around the edge of the pile. Instantly.
, the tongues of fire rising into the sky devoured Xiao Bu.
Just as Xiao Bu was burned in the sea of fire and screamed, a large group of singers in white sacrificial robes stood up slowly in this solemn atmosphere and sang with an unstable and slightly trembling voice,
It's like crying with excitement.
"Hahaha... Xiaobu, have you seen it? These are the people you are worried about." Xiaobu in the fire had already begun to talk nonsense. But after a few words, there was no sound again. It seemed that he had been scorched.
.
When midnight came around the next day, the priest raised his hands to signal everyone to stop singing. Then he turned around and extinguished the flames. But when Xiaobu's body was revealed, everyone once again let out a wave of exclamations,
The priest standing closest was so frightened that he sat on the ground.
Now the person tied to the cross is no longer Xiaobu, but a roast suckling pig. And he is also wearing a grass skirt.
The suckling pig moved, and the rope that tied it turned into fly ash. (It had already been burned to ashes.) Then the roasted suckling pig squeaked and slid down the cross. It shook the grass and forked.
He bowed his head and burst out laughing. Suddenly everyone else was shocked and speechless, and the whole square could only hear the proud laughter of the roast suckling pig.
"No, we've been fooled!" Someone in the darkness seemed to have woken up and shouted, but it was too late. Yes, the third person is just a deceptive cover. The protagonist is still me, the handsome copper. Accompanying
As the clock struck zero, I fluttered my grass skirt and jumped up gracefully. After landing, I trotted towards the north gate amid the astonished gazes of thousands of citizens.
As a mercenary, I have never failed in making copper coins, and it is not possible this time either.
He summoned the skateboard and took me out of the north gate of Huzhou quickly, heading towards the place agreed upon by Xiaobu, Anna, and I, because I promised Xiaobu to spend his seventh birthday with him. In fact, I wanted to help Xiaobu get rid of
There is another very important reason for hoping to get the black box in his hand...
As far as I know, the original world of Taiyi was chaos. All living things in this world were grown from biological cells called seeds. Moreover, the five creators of Taiyi were based on the principle of not harming others.
The principle of free choice of lifestyle guided the growth of the first batch of creatures. Later, that principle naturally became the highest principle of Taiyi World. But how could such an ancestor give birth to a freak like Huzhou, which deprived Xiao Bu of his natural growth?
rights, due to an unfounded ancient curse. Of course, in this hypothesis, small steps will hurt other people. As a primitive liberal, hoping to cause some damage to this annoying place is probably a kind of
Deep-rooted subconscious mind is at work.
While I was still thinking wildly, two familiar figures suddenly appeared in the woods in front of me.
"What a great Li Daitao. I didn't expect that we both fell into my brother's scheme." It was such a deep voice that you knew it was Nanding. The lamp next to you must be that old guy Kubera. What on earth are these two guys doing?
The man at work is so elusive.
"This kind of shape-shifting race is rare in our world, but I didn't expect that its original form was actually a roast suckling pig." Kubera looked at me as if he had seen an alien, but to be honest, even if
Aliens may not be as weird as I am now.
"Xiao Bu is already seven years old, and you see that the world has not changed much. Haha..." I curled my lips and glared at them proudly, but one of my eyeballs fell to the ground. I didn't expect it to be roasted.
Ripe pig eyeballs are so unreliable, but according to the principle of mimicry that the big devil with white beard told me when he developed my latent transformation ability, I had no choice but to change like this in desperation. (The principle of mimicry means that I am a human being.
It cannot resist any damage, but after the transformation, as long as the simulation is enough, you can obtain all the resistances belonging to the creature. For example, burning me with fire will definitely send me to the west, but if I transform into a roasted roast
The pig can't roast me any more.)
Without any psychological preparation, I was picked up by Nandin ferociously. He pulled my hooves, as if he was about to tear me in half. Then the giant said in a low and resentful voice.
He said: "Even if we lose, we can still tear your damn roast pig into pieces now!" Everything was so sudden, I didn't even have time to think about what I should transform into to escape this disaster. The giant was slightly
As soon as I exerted force, I fainted from the pain.
"Let go of Brother Copper." It was Xiaobu's voice. Could I also hear the voices of the world in heaven? Then I felt like I was thrown to the ground by someone. Since I had no strength, I felt that I was falling quickly.
He changed back to his original form - a poor little mollusk.
"Kid, why are you coming out? You are no match for us."
"Uncle Bearded, I don't know what you are talking about. Brother Copper promised to protect me, so I am not afraid of you."
"Hahaha..." The two weirdos laughed together, and then I felt something crushing my face twice, and then someone said contemptuously: "Kid, look at this weak face, that's the one
You have to protect the true form of your great hero. This poor guy who can't even protect himself, I think you can't protect him enough..." Whoever spoke was not heard clearly, but I am indeed quite useless...
"Shut up!" This was the voice of Zixiu. She had mysteriously disappeared since Xiaobu and I escaped from the forest just now. I don't know when she came back.
Then I heard Xiaobu's voice again: "Old uncle, please take your feet away from my brother's face."
"Yes, you are not qualified to step on the face of a copper plate." Zixiu's voice came again.
"We are the arbiters of the Taiyi world, and this guy is just a weak garbage creature, why can't we step on it?" This time I heard clearly, it was Kubera's voice.
"This is 2099 AD, not 1099 AD. Maybe copper plates are indeed the garbage of the war, but you who insist on the supremacy of power are the garbage of the times."
"Lao Ju, this is the first time I heard the term garbage of the times. It's so shocking."
"Don't forget that the garbage of the era can still determine the life and death of the garbage in battle. The era of power is not over."
"Hahaha, you trash who have been eliminated by the times, let me tell you. Although Copper is weak, he challenged you with his wisdom. When he challenged this perverted city, he gained everything - courage, wisdom, freedom and
Dignity; and when you step on the face of a weak person who has lost the ability to resist, the most basic dignity of a man has disappeared. Moreover, the designer of Taiyi World also made a little joke for you.
.Copper lost everything but did not really lose his life. He can still start over with his glory, and even if you are alive, you are just two powerful wretches."
"This beautiful big sister is right. It's because Brother Copper is as weak as me that I think he is the real hero." Haha, I didn't expect that I was a hero in their minds, but they didn't expect that I was pretending.
die.
While they were not paying attention, I secretly opened my eyes. As a result, I saw the giant's face was twisted, and he seemed to be struggling in a very painful way.
"This is work." The old man reminded the giant calmly.
"Even if you work, you can't lose the creed of life, otherwise it's better to die." It seems that this giant is not as shameless as imagined, and the next step is probably to let us go. Well! Pretend to be dead for a while longer. But I am still lying.
My eyes peeked to see what the giant wanted to do.
He slapped his forehead in pain and said: "It's too embarrassing. Let's kill these two guys and silence them. Then we can change our ways." Before he finished speaking, he raised his giant shield and wanted to kill Zi.
Shou and Xiaobu were smashed together... Oh! God bless them... As for me, the best way is to close my eyes and not look...
Just when I thought everything was over, I suddenly felt a strong light shining into my closed eyes, and then Zixiu and the two weirdos screamed in surprise almost at the same time. What happened? What happened? I
My curiosity overcame my timidity. I secretly opened my eyes, and this time it was my turn to be surprised...
A pair of huge wings of light were wrapped in a strange white light. The giant shield was deeply immersed in the white light and could no longer move. If you look carefully, it seems that there is a young body wrapped in the wings of light...
Xiaobu, it's Xiaobu... He belongs to the Guangyi clan - a mysterious nation that is said to have been sealed by Huang Tiantaiyi during the ancient war of gods. It seems that the residents of Huzhou are all descendants of the ancient Guangyi clan.
If you don't become an adult, a terrible curse will come on your seventh birthday...——The thousand-year-old legend is indeed not a rumor. The Lightwing clan has a magic that confuses people's hearts. If it is allowed to develop, the entire Taiyi world will eventually collapse.
The giant took a few steps back to regain his composure. When he found that Xiaobu didn't know how to attack and just stood there at a loss and stared at him blankly, he showed an imperceptible smile.
"The virus doesn't seem to know how scary it is." The giant retreated to Kubera, who was standing next to my body, and whispered.
"Are you sure you can clear it?"
The giant did not immediately answer the old man's question. His eyebrows frowned, as if a hundred kilograms of weight were pressing on his thick eyebrows. After a while, the giant nodded slowly.
nod.
Then, the giant stood forward majestically and looked at the pitiful Xiao Bu coldly. However, the giant seemed to be afraid of something and did not launch an active attack on Xiao Bu. Everyone remained in a stalemate quietly for ten minutes, and then even
The wind stopped. The withered grass branches all around stood upright, like copper wires. Finally, even the sound of the grass shaking became thinner and thinner in the air, until it was so thin that it didn't exist...
It's so boring. It's obvious that the big bear didn't use his full strength because he hasn't activated the alienated armor that greatly enhances his abilities. But even if he still has some strength left, he doesn't dare to attack easily. Maybe he's afraid of escaping in small steps. Because the legendary light wing
The clan is the fastest flying creature. According to the current distance, Xiaobu can easily fly far away by just spreading his wings. It is really a battle without any suspense. I can't help but want to yawn when I think of this.
"Roar~~~" Suddenly the giant let out a wild roar, and then violently raised the shield surrounded by sharp blades high. Then his evil eyes fell on me... Could it be that he wanted to... cut me into flesh?
Silk. The change came so suddenly. Before I could escape, I was overwhelmed by the giant's fighting spirit and was unable to move.
"Don't bother, Xiaobu. Zi Xiu and I are not related to each other and will not come to save me." I opened my eyes and shouted loudly to the giant. I don't know why I did this, even though I whispered it.
I can hear it, maybe I am expecting something. But I don’t have high hopes for this expectation, because if it were the other person, I would escape without hesitation. Of course, the difference is that due to my combat experience
Rich, in the few minutes of the stalemate, he had already disappeared.
The big bear just smiled coldly, and the giant shield still fell down like a mountain.
Another dazzling white light flashed, and the broad wings of light spread out in front of my eyes, waving gently. Just like most crappy third-rate TV dramas, the kind-hearted partner finally took action to save the hero, and the murderous weapon was weak.
It was spinning unsteadily on the edge of the light. In the light, I felt many things that had been lost or were about to be lost. Those things were despised in the adult world, but admired in the children's world. It was as if my heart had been given a pair of wings.
Take me to fly freely under the boundless blue sky. Take me to break through the thick clouds and go to where the sun is.
I finally understand, I understand what is terrifying about the Light Wings. They are indeed a curse, but this curse is imposed on this abnormal world and then restores it to normal. That is why the Emperor of Heaven wants everyone from the Light Wings to
They became adults before the age of seven and died before the age of fifty. From then on, angels fell into fools, and the power of fools allowed them to guard this tradition devoutly for a thousand years.
The light shrouded the surroundings, and my mind had never been so clear-headed. However, this wonderful feeling soon came to an end. The giant used strange techniques to pass through the light shield, and pinched Xiaobu's hand with his palm as big as a cattail fan.
The light disappeared from his neck, and the surroundings fell into deep darkness again. With his back to the moonlight, Xiaobu slowly turned his head. Scanning the shadows, his eyes were black, but when facing the moonlight, they turned dark blue, as if
It's the boundless sea. He seems to be expecting something. I think it's definitely not expecting me to save him!
"Son of God, the frightening thing about you is that you are too simple, but your weakness is also too simple." As he spoke, the giant squeezed a little harder... This time no savior appeared again, and before Xiaobu even had time to scream, the slender little
His neck was twisted alive. His head fell in front of me with a plop. His eyes looked particularly big from a close distance. I saw a small self inside, which reached to the shoulders, a strange-looking small self.
.He seemed to be still expecting something until he died...
"Damn it!"
While I was still in a daze, Zixiu jumped up first and stabbed the giant hand stained with Xiaobu's blood with her pointed wheel. Nanding frowned in pain after being stabbed.
He slapped Zi Xiu to the ground with a backhand slap.
"A life like an ant." The giant shook his head and stepped towards Zi Xiu. But Zi Xiu was not like Xiao Bu. There was no expectation in her eyes. She raised her head proudly and pulled out the dagger from her waist.
, facing the giant's feet that were about to fall. Maybe she thought that she could stab the powerful giant before she died! She would win if she shouted loudly. In the eyes of the strong, this is such a ridiculous idea. But...
...But I don’t think so. Because if this is the case, I will never see this girl who is braver, more affectionate, and cuter than me again.
A flash of lightning flashed, and a warrior with a silver helmet suddenly appeared in front of Zi Xiu's eyes. The unknown warrior kicked out quickly, and collided with the giant's leg. The unsuspecting giant couldn't help but step back three times in succession.
He stepped forward, but the unknown warrior did not move at all. Suddenly everything around him became still, except for the two dragon whiskers woven with light phoenix feathers on top of the young warrior's white dragon silver helmet, flying up and down in the night wind.
"Big Bear, I'll be your opponent." The silver warrior looked at the giant with cold eyes, showing no fear.
"Who are you……"
"A warrior."
The little old man next to him suddenly spoke: "Lao Nan, I didn't expect that there are still people in this world who can overwhelm you."
The giant didn't respond to the old man, but looked me up and down. After seeing my appearance clearly, his face suddenly changed, and he seemed to be very surprised. And he muttered in a low voice: "It turns out it's you.
.”.
"I'm in a bad mood today. I don't want to kill anyone anymore." As he said this, the giant threw down the little old man who never made a move, turned around and left. I didn't expect him to be so straightforward. The old man shook his head helplessly and bowed to respect us.
After bowing, he quickly disappeared into the darkness.
After they went away, I let out a long sigh of relief. The silver armor quickly faded away, and I returned to that poor little monster. This strongest fighting form enhanced by the alienated armor allowed me to rival the big devil.
The power, but it can only last for five minutes at most, and I have to rest for a month (virtual time) once I transform. In fact, there is another way for me to achieve the power of the big devil, and that is to reload, but I have to absorb it every time I reload.
It takes a lot of energy to complete it. If I can break through the energy gathering limit of reload, I'm afraid there are only a handful of people in this world who can compete with me.
Finally, everything became silent again. Only the breeze blew gently - they seemed to be just to cool the sleeping birds in their nests and to make it easier for the beetles rushing to attend the night dance. The leaves on the trees
They swayed slightly, not as if the breeze was blowing them, but as the gently passing moonlight was caressing them. Under the moonlight, a white feather with a soft brilliance floated, and I reached out to catch it. A touch of light
Sadness occupies my heart because it reminds me of its owner.
Only then did I remember something and quickly took it out of Qiankun's belly. The black box was opened, but there was nothing in it. I seemed to understand something, so I just smiled and put the hand in my hand.
The white feathers were put into the box.
Zixiu said to me silently: "The copper plate, let's call it the Wings of Little Steps, it may be a very great treasure."
"Yes, this is an amazing treasure. Its lethality against certain enemies is S-level." I squinted my eyes because I didn't want the things spinning in my eyes to fall out. Xiaobu, Ah Cai
, dead brain...I can all read the same thing in their eyes. That is it doesn't matter if this person takes me to hell. If this place looks like hell to me, that must be my opinion
There was a mistake, he couldn't have done it. As for me, I did bring them all into hell.
Zixiu looked up at me, her eyes always had such a reassuring appeal, as if she was trying to comfort my sad soul.
"To find our companions, we need to be stronger." Zixiu said it so calmly, but it penetrated my heart directly. However, I couldn't answer a word, so I could only nod silently.
