Vol 2 Chapter 1: My name is Tang Zhen!


The green hills are green, the white clouds are lingering, the cattle are grazing in the fields, and the children are playing in the river bay, which is a beautiful pastoral scenery.
Under the old tree at the entrance of the village, a young man woke up and looked around suspiciously.
For some reason, it was a familiar scene, but it gave him a strange sense of strangeness.
"What is wrong with me?"
The young man said softly, reaching out and touching his cheek.
There are vicissitudes in his eyes, and there is a trance and confusion that appears from time to time, which is indeed incompatible with the age of appearance.
Just now, under this old tree, the young man had a dream. The content of the dream was mysterious and wonderful, and he couldn't understand it at all. It was simply incredible.
An incomparably vast starry sky, a figure as huge as a mountain, and a battlefield filled with blood...
The heavens and the world, countless races, have been born and destroyed in the long river of time.
The various scenes in the dream are intoxicating, and I wish I would never wake up.
Just when the young man was silly, recalling the scene in his dream, a figure suddenly ran over with a flustered look on his face.
"Master, go home quickly, the master is injured!"
...
Ten minutes later, in the largest house in the village, several figures gathered in the center of the courtyard.
There are also three cold corpses placed in the courtyard, among them the boy's father.
The village chief, the richest man, and the landlord.
"What happened?"
The boy asked the housekeeper in a trembling tone, his body shaking involuntarily.
The sudden change brought a heavy blow to the teenager, and the young body could not bear it at all.
The old butler looked sad and said truthfully to the young man: "Master found the secret way in the back room, so he excitedly took people down to investigate, but he didn't want to walk a few steps and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the two servants in the family hurriedly went to the rescue, but did not want to fall one after another.
When something like this happened, I naturally didn't dare anyone to go down, and in the end I searched for the wooden stick and rope, which pulled the person up, but I didn't want the master to be out of anger for a long time..."
There was sadness in the old butler's tone, and it was really sincere pain. He had followed the family master since he was a child, and he was a master and a servant as well as a brother.
At this moment, he endured his sadness and looked at the young man in front of him with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
The family has undergone great changes, and the young man is the only pillar, and must inherit the ancestral business and the position of the village chief.
Even if the shoulders are still weak, it is necessary to provoke this heavy burden to ensure that the family can continue to inherit.
The boy was silent for a few breaths and nodded lightly.
"It should be that the secret passage has been closed for too long, and the oxygen inside is severely lacking, so it will lead to suffocation and death..."
When the young man said this, he was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself how could he know these principles?
"Uh……"
The old butler was at a loss, not knowing what the young master was talking about, so he could only nod his head blankly.
The teenager rolled his eyes and said in a sad tone: "This is fate, and there is no need to be too sad, after all, life has to go on."
The young man sighed and looked at the old housekeeper in front of him.
"Trouble Fu Bo to take care of the funeral, you don't need to make a big deal, the more low-key the better.
The two workers also gave pensions. Don't be stingy with money. After all, they lost their lives for our family.
Our family's industry is not big, but there are many people coveted, absolutely can not give them the opportunity to do it.
And this one thing, don't announce it to the public, go to the village and tell it one by one. "
Butler Fu Bo was stunned for a moment, looking at the young master in front of him, he suddenly felt very strange.
It seems to have grown up overnight.
"Okay sir."
Fu Bo's tone was filled with relief, and the young man's performance made him immediately put down his worries.
Master has grown up.
If you can keep doing this, you can ensure that the family business will not fall, and you will not end up with a desolate night scene.
Otherwise, at my age, my legs are dazzling, and I really don't know where to beg for food.
Uncle Fu was busy with others, and the young man was silent for a while before walking towards the back room alone.
He had to figure out what kind of secret path that actually devoured several lives.
Because of the accident, the backyard has been closed by Fu Bo, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.
The young man has a special status, and naturally he has no obstacle to enter and exit, and he soon came to the scene of the incident.
On the ground of the firewood house in the back room, there is a large collapsed place, and there are sticks and ropes on the ground.
Below is a black hole, as if it can absorb light, making it difficult to see the scenery below.
"Try it first to see if the oxygen is sufficient. If there is no problem, you can go down and explore."
Thinking of this, the teenager immediately ran to the chicken coop in the backyard and grabbed a big rooster.
Tie the legs with rope and drop the chicken straight down.
Then he ran into the house and found an oil lamp, ready to be used for lighting in the dark.
After waiting for about five minutes, the teenager pulled the rope and pulled the big up.
The rooster stared at him and held a centipede in his mouth, showing a spirited gesture.
"I'm not dead, it seems I can go down."
The teenager threw the rooster aside, followed the wooden ladder, and carefully entered the underground passage.
Although it has been covered in dust for many years, the secret path is still very dry and has a faint earthy smell.
Holding the oil lamp in his hand, the boy slowly walked forward, and soon saw a door ahead.
There is a set of symbols on the top, followed by six rings, which are grouped together with each other.
All ten symbols are engraved on these rings, which look like combination locks.
Seeing the strange symbol in front of him, the young man was stunned for a moment, and there seemed to be a memory activated in the depths of his soul.
"This is... an arithmetic problem!"
The boy muttered to himself, and involuntarily reached out his hand and moved the rings at the back.
The answer to this question, the teenager seems to be born with it, will answer it naturally.
The boy didn't know why this was the case, he just felt that when he woke up, he was completely different from the past.
For such a change, the teenager did not feel flustered, but took it for granted.
It seems that this state is the truest self.
As the dust fell, the dust-stained door opened, revealing the densely engaged gears inside.
The teenager was shocked to find that the black door blocking him was actually made of an unknown metal.
The thickness is half a meter, and the way of clasping is staggered, there is no possibility of violent prying.
If you hadn't figured out the answer yourself, this door would definitely not be able to be opened, and random testing might be dangerous.
After the door opened, a sudden burst of light illuminated the dark environment.
This is a secret room, about forty square meters, the whole body is made of black metal, and the surface is covered with fine text symbols.
In the middle is a hexagonal stone platform, about one meter high, which emits a bright light.
It is like a crystal column with countless runes in it, floating around like a swimming fish.
At the top of this stone platform, there is a large fist crystal suspended, with a crystal clear appearance, wrapped in colorful rays of light.
In the dazzling light, there are also countless runes, just like colorful fish.
The young man was stunned. He had never seen such a splendid sight since he was born.
"What is this and why does it feel familiar?"
With a trace of doubt in his arms, the young man couldn't help but took a few steps forward and reached out his fingers to touch the crystal.
"Buzz!"
The high-frequency vibration sounded, the crystal burst into bright light, and the boy's eyes widened.
Piece after piece of information, continuously entered into his mind, let him understand the origin of the crystal in front of him.
At the same time, he also knew his other name.
"So...my name is Tang Zhen!"
