Chapter 2 Beginning
Douluo Continent, Star Luo Empire, in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion twenty miles away from the western suburbs of Star Luo City,
Catkins are floating in the air with the breeze. Among the gorgeous palace-like buildings, a low and dilapidated woodshed is incompatible with the surrounding environment.
The decoration of the woodshed is very simple, with only a worn-out wooden bed and a wardrobe without cabinet doors. The only few women's clothes in the wardrobe are covered with a layer of dust.
Two teenagers were sitting on the wooden bed.
Among them was a young man with dark blue hair, a thin face, about eleven or twelve years old, and wearing a white washed gray shirt.
His eyes were closed tightly at this moment, and from time to time a wisp of white air exhaled from his mouth and nose along with the boy's ups and downs.
Sitting next to him was a young man who was about the same age and dressed the same as him. The difference was that this young man had a faint golden sun mark between his eyebrows. He was not practicing, but quietly looking at the prosperity outside the window.
puff!
The aura of the young cultivator suddenly rose.
"Brother Jie, I succeeded." Huo Yuhao opened his eyes with joy on his face.
"Okay." Xu Jie came back to his senses, "Yu Hao, restore your soul power first."
"Yes." Huo Yuhao nodded, closed his eyes, and began to sort out the uncontrollable soul power in his body due to the breakthrough.
As time passed, the chaotic aura on Huo Yuhao slowly disappeared as the soul power in his body calmed down.
"Let's go!"
Seeing Huo Yuhao open his eyes again, Xu Jie picked up two packages, handed one to Huo Yuhao, and carried the other on his back.
Squeak!
Huo Yuhao stood up immediately, and the wooden bed under him, which had been in disrepair for a long time, let out an exclamation of surprise.
He jumped under the bed, put on his cloth shoes, carried the package that Xu Jie handed him on his back, and the two walked out of the woodshed together.
As soon as he came out of the woodshed, little white fluorescent lights appeared in Huo Yuhao's eyes. He walked up to Xu Jie and led Xu Jie through the gorgeous buildings.
Even though they had walked this road leaving the Duke's Palace countless times, they were still extremely cautious and carefully avoided the servants in the palace. No one noticed them walking through the palace.
Not long after, the back door on the north side of the Duke's Palace opened quietly, and two figures came out of the door. They closed the door gently, made sure no one was following them, and ran north without looking back. go.
Although the Duke's Mansion is located outside Xingluo City, it is well connected in all directions. The two of them did not walk onto the official road immediately. Instead, they walked through the woods beside the official road for more than ten minutes before walking onto the official road.
As soon as he stepped onto the official road, Xu Jie opened the package behind him, took out a small white porcelain bottle with a gap, and said: "Yu Hao, come and apply the medicine."
The two of them were walking through the woods. Even with the White Tiger Dagger clearing the way, it was still difficult to avoid small bloody cuts on their bodies from branches.
Low-quality white powder was sprinkled on Huo Yuhao's wound. Pain came from the small bleeding mouth, but Huo Yuhao looked calm and made no sound.
Xu Jie was surprised. He looked up at Huo Yuhao and found that his eyes were red and he was staring closely at the White Tiger Duke's Mansion in the south, which was about to disappear from their sight.
He raised his hand and patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder. Huo Yuhao reacted, raised his hand to wipe his eyes, took the white porcelain bottle, poured out the powder, and applied it to Xu Jie's wound.
Xu Jie turned to look at the Duke's Palace, which was about to disappear. Unlike Huo Yuhao, his black pupils were very calm.
……
Huo Yuhao's mother, Huo Yun'er, was the Duke's personal maid. She grew up with the Duke. The personal maid originally served her master, so Huo Yuhao was born as a matter of course on the night twelve years ago.
Not long after Huo Yuhao was born, an old lady found Huo Yuner with the baby in her arms.
Even though his appearance had changed greatly due to aging, Huo Yun'er still recognized this friend he had met when the Sun Moon Empire and Star Luo Empire established diplomatic relations, and took the baby from his friend's trembling hands.
It was also at the moment when Huo Yun'er took over the baby that Huo Yun'er's friend, whose life was like a broken candle, said the word "Xu Jie", and because of the burning life, his whole body turned into a point of light and disappeared.
Xu Jie's mother remained cautious until the end. Before arriving at Xingluo City, she had already thrown away those who were chasing her and led those people in the wrong direction.
Moreover, due to the burning of life, Xu Jie's mother's vitality had long been weak. Under her deliberate concealment, she passed through the Duke's Palace and reached Huo Yun'er's small courtyard without being discovered.
After all, if she was discovered, she wouldn't be able to reach Huo Yun'er's courtyard.
Fortunately, although Huo Yun'er still had no status at that time, she still had some small rights after giving birth to the Duke's child. There was no problem in finding a personal book boy for Huo Yuhao.
So Huo Yun'er hid Xu Jie in the name of adopting a book boy for Huo Yuhao, and took him to the orphanage (orphanage) in Xingluo City and returned to his own small courtyard.
What surprised Huo Yun'er was that Xu Jie was well-behaved throughout the entire journey, making no noise or causing any commotion.
Although Huo Yun'er said to the outside world that he wanted Xu Jie to be Huo Yuhao's book boy, Huo Yun'er treated Xu Jie just like Huo Yuhao.
Two-year-old Xu Jie's body is not fully developed and his memories of past lives are intermittent, causing him to be stupid sometimes and extremely out of touch at other times.
It was also at this time that the Duke of White Tiger began to go out to fight, and all the affairs in the palace were placed in the hands of the Duchess. For the sake of her two children, the Duchess began to suppress all factors in the palace that might have an impact on his children.
The day Duke White Tiger left, Huo Yun'er with her two children was forced to move to the woodshed in the servant area.
And all sources of income were cut off. Fortunately, Xu Jie's mother left a lot of belongings. Although the three of them were poor, they could still live a good life. After two years of this, their lives were okay. Xu Jie and Huo Yuhao From time to time, I help Huo Yun'er do some work to earn some extra money.
But the bad thing is that Xu Jie's memory is not working at the moment. One day when the Duke comes back from the war, Xu Jie uses the memory in his mind to go to Duke White Tiger to complain.
But a four-year-old child is still a child with only a small part of his memory. How could he be the duchess's opponent?
After failing to file a complaint, he was captured and brought back. That night, if Huo Yun'er hadn't used her body to protect him, he would have been beaten to death. It was also that night that Xu Jie's memories returned to their original places.
Only then did he fully understand that he had traveled through time again. This was the second world he had traveled through, Douluo Continent, or the timeline of the second part. The first world he traveled through was the world of Yitian Slaying the Dragon.
Xu Jie had nothing to do that night, but Huo Yun'er was already in poor health, and after another beating, she fell seriously ill that night.
Fortunately, Xu Jie had learned the "Nine Yang Divine Art" in his previous life. As soon as his internal energy was activated, he found that his physical strength actually had a lot of internal energy. Then he thought, this is Douluo, and what he has in his body should be innate soul power.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly activated his soul power and started operating according to the first level of "Nine Yang Divine Art". After converting the innate soul power in his body into Nine Yang soul power, he immediately transferred the soul power into Huo Yun'er's body to heal his injuries.
But it may be because of Wuhun. Just like Tang San's "Xuan Tian Gong" cannot break through the first level, Xu Jie's "Nine Yang Divine Art" also falls into the same situation.
"Nine Yang Divine Art" is magical, but these magical features will only be revealed one by one as the cultivation of "Nine Yang Divine Art" continues to deepen.
The "Nine Yang Divine Art" with only one level of cultivation has the ability to heal wounds, but this ability is too weak.
So even though Xu Jie continued to heal Huo Yun'er's injuries, Huo Yun'er still left the root of the disease.
