In Lingzhou, on the official road, a young man in green rode his white horse and headed south.

The young man was named Xu Ziling. He grew up in a small village in Zhending Mansion. However, he was not a local person. He was adopted by a villager named Xu Mo.

According to Xu Mo, it was Xu Ziling who was picking up firewood in the mountains. It was raining at the time. Xu Mo, who was rushing home, slid and fell down. He accidentally discovered Xu Ziling in the grass, without a cradle. The naked baby appeared in the deep mountains, which seemed very strange. The rain soaked him all over, and he didn't see him crying.

Although strange, the kind-hearted Xu Mo took him home. Xu Mo was alone and had no wife, so he took him as his adopted son and asked the scholars in the village to name him. Since then, Xu Ziling lived in the village for nine years until he was nine years old.

That day was a pain that was hard to ease in his heart. The Liao people suddenly appeared and ransacked his village. He was the only one in the village, and Li Mingxia, a girl who grew up together, hid in the haystack and survived.

By the time they left the haystack, the whole village was dilapidated, all the houses were burned, all the bodies were burned out, and the broken limbs and arms were all over the ground. They cried and called, trying to find out if there were any surviving villagers.

At this moment, the Liao people suddenly turned back to the village and were ordered to check if there were any fish that had missed the net. They vaguely heard the boy and girl's voice and followed the sound. At this time, the boy also heard the sound of horse hooves. He hurriedly pushed the girl and told the girl to escape quickly and not turn around. Then he ran to the other side with a roar.

When the Liao people saw the boy, they became foolish. They put down the crossbow arrows in their hands and did not shoot him as soon as possible. They just rode a horse and followed the boy. The boy had no time to run with all his strength. The Liao soldiers were not in a hurry, and they rode their horses to chase him slowly while screaming and driving away the boy.

In this way, the boy ran for nearly half an hour, fell to the ground with all his might and fainted. At this time, the Liao soldiers lost their patience and took out crossbow arrows to shoot the boy. At this moment, an arrow roared. The Liao people quickly turned their heads to look in that direction, and then they widened their eyes and fell to the ground, but saw the arrow in the middle of their eyebrows. Not far away, an old man took his bow and walked to the boy and picked him up.

After that, the old man left the boy with a miserable life and accepted it as a disciple, and the girl was missing from then on. In this way, Xu Ziling lived with his master for several years, and it was not until his martial arts were recognized by his master a few months ago that he was able to "freedom".

It was evening, and after arriving at the road, Xu Ziling felt a little tired. In addition, there was a saying among the people that "the open and honest people can't walk at night", so he found an inn nearby to prepare some food and rest for a night.

I saw the three large words "Fu Laiju" written on the plaque of the inn. After leading the horses to the stable in the right courtyard of the inn, Xu Ziling pushed the door and entered the inn. He found that there were still many people staying here, and the first floor was almost full and lively.

The shopkeeper saw a young man walking up, and his round face, which seemed to be blessed, was filled with a smile: "Young master, should you stay in a hotel? I think it's getting late, so why not just go to a small shop." Xu Ziling nodded, took out a ingot of silver and put it on the table, and said, "I'll stay here today, I'll give you a good wine, just present the good food." The shopkeeper replied, took the silver and ordered the kitchen to go.

Xu Ziling sat down at the only empty table nearby and waited for the meal. But he heard a diner on the table talking loudly: "Can you know where Song Gongming, Yuncheng County?"

A person next to him replied, "But that person is called Song Jiang and Song Gongming, brother who is called Shandong Hubaoyi?" The man said, "It's this person, but I heard that Song Gongming angrily killed the wife who stole the man in his family a few days ago, and now he has been assassinated to Jiangzhou."

The man next to him slapped the table: "This woman is so hateful. She has caused my brother Gongming to suffer. If she had not been killed by her hands, she would have thought it would have been cut into pieces to relieve her hatred."

......

Listening to the name Song Jiang, Xu Ziling felt a little inexplicably, as if he had seen this name somewhere. At this time, the waiter of the inn also came up with the food. After putting down the food, he saw Xu Ziling dressed up as a young master alone. He was preparing to make a few polite words with him and asked, "Where do you want to go, do you need some guidance? Not to mention anything else, the young master is very familiar with the ten miles of Jeju, Lingzhou, and Jeju."

Xu Ziling asked the shopkeeper's direction when he was about to leave tomorrow. Unexpectedly, the waiter was so enthusiastic, and replied with a smile: "Do you know the fastest way to Jiangning Mansion?"

The waiter was stunned at first, thought for a moment, and quickly replied: "If you want to go to Jiangning quickly, you can go south from here to Jeju, pass Yuncheng, Rencheng, and go to Nanyang Lake to Weishan Lake, and reach the boundary of Xuzhou. Two or three hundred miles south, then you can reach Jiangning."

Xu Ziling nodded and remembered the waiter's words. He took out a ingot of silver from his pocket and threw it to the waiter. The waiter immediately smiled and flattered him for a few words, then took the money and said goodbye to take care of other guests.

At this time, a gentle voice sounded: "This young man, there are no empty spaces around him. Can you use the same table with you?"

Xu Ziling was stunned and turned around and saw a woman in green looking at her like clear water. The woman's figure was slender and graceful, but her face was covered with a light gauze, making people unable to see her face. However, looking at her graceful and graceful appearance, she must have a good appearance.

Xu Ziling looked at the woman in front of her and casually said, "Sister, please do." The woman's pink lips under the gauze raised slightly and she gently sat on the empty seat on the left of Xu Ziling. At the same time, she placed the small purple bag originally hung on her waist on the free position on the bench. The bag swelled around it, as if there was a box inside.

Seeing Xu Ziling turn to eat, the woman also called the waiter and ordered some food. However, she saw the woman put her sleeves on the table, and two spiders as big as babies' fists crawled out from it.

Xu Ziling, who was burying his head to eat, saw two spiders with squint eyes. His white face twitched suddenly, then stopped chopsticks and stared at the two spiders with extremely bright colors.

The woman had long been accustomed to this kind of eyes. She glanced at Xu Ziling with her clear eyes and said softly: "Young master, don't be afraid. Qing'er, Zi'er is a pet I raised since childhood. She is extremely docile by nature and will not hurt people on the initiative."

Xu Ziling was not timid, but just watching the spider's eight long spider legs walking back and forth on the table like playing, a cold air could not help but surge into his heart. Hearing the woman's explanation, Xu Ziling, who was still a teenager, couldn't help scratching his head and said, "It's not that my younger brother is timid, but my sister's pet is really a bit cunning."

The woman chuckled and said, "This is the usual custom and rule of our clan. Both men and women will go to the ancestral temple to worship twins since childhood. Then the parents will choose some living things for their children to choose from. After the selection, the living things will be inseparable and accompany the owner until one of them dies."

At this time, the waiter brought the food ordered by the woman. He suddenly saw two living creatures on the table. He was startled and shouted, "Miaojiang Seven-Colored Poison Spider?" Hearing the waiter's scream, everyone around him looked at this place, pointed at the spider and discussed it, and the atmosphere suddenly became noisier.

The spider of Miaojiang's seven-colored witchcraft spider, and people in the martial arts world, was changed to the point of being heard. This spider is unique to the Gongsun family and the Five Immortal Sect in Miaojiang. It has the most spiritual toxins (or neurotoxins) that are the most powerful witchcraft world. Although this poison is not fatal and painless, it can affect people's way of thinking, triggering the original sin deep in the heart, and even the poison is cured.

The so-called seven colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, corresponding to seven original sins: arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, greed, gluttony, and lust. Because of its bizarre toxicity, most people do not understand how powerful its poison is.

Faced with the noise and pointing fingers, the woman had long been accustomed to it, so she nodded gently and said to the waiter: "I never thought you, the waiter, are very knowledgeable." Then she glanced at Xu Ziling gently.

Xu Ziling knew very little about Miaojiang. He scratched his head when he heard this, and looked at the woman and said, "I heard from the master that the Five Immortals Sect of Miaojiang are good at witchcraft. Is my sister a member of the Five Immortals Sect?"

The woman shook her head and said, "Although our clan is closely related to the Five Immortal Sect, it is not the same sect and sect, and its style of conduct is also different."

Just as Xu Ziling was about to answer, a man with a black face and long beard came next to him, followed by seven or eight people dressed in black robes and warriors.
