After resisting for about ten minutes, Jairus finally stopped moving, not even squirming, like a dead animal, lying on the ground miserably, and it was really difficult to compare the two with the strong martial arts powerhouse before.

Zhou Bo took a big breath, and then slowly withdrew his strength from the hammer, Ya Xi hurriedly came to Zhou Bo, and asked anxiously, "Zhou Bo, are you okay?"

"It's fine. Zhou Bo only felt a little out of breath, but the others were really not uncomfortable, and he still had inexhaustible strength in his body, which made him very puzzled, how could this be done?

was lewd, Ya Xi suddenly exclaimed: "Your fighting spirit has awakened??"

"Huh?" Zhou Boru was stunned for a second when he heard the most incredible thing, and then seemed to realize something, and immediately asked Xiang Qinglong: "Senior, has your spirit been unsealed?"

Qinglong was also excited, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I don't know. Then he paused for two seconds, and suddenly exclaimed, "That's right, that's right, my spirit is back!"

Zhou Bo suddenly felt that his whole body was relieved, and he finally succeeded, he spent five years to grow from a pharmacist who collected medicine in the Gunan Continent to a warrior who fought a decisive battle with the big devil, and finally realized his original promise through layers of hardships and dangers, and found the spirit of Qinglong, and now it is like tasting a glass of wine, which is extremely comfortable.

At this time, Ya Xi's excited voice came out: "It seems that he should be the martial sect that sealed the fighting soul, and now that he is dead, I believe that the fighting soul of countless brothers and sisters of the fighting clan should also be unsealed." After speaking, she grabbed Zhou Bo's arm with great excitement and said happily: "Thank you, Zhou Bo, you have really done a great thing for the Dou clan!"

Zhou Bo smiled embarrassedly, how could he be regarded as doing good deeds for the Dou clan! It has always been for himself and Qinglong's predecessors, and the current result is just a coincidence.

"Hehe, it's nothing, I'm just lucky. ”

Ya Xi shook his head and said very seriously: "It's not just luck, you can use the artifact so skillfully, it proves that you are different." ”

Suddenly, Ya Xi pulled Zhou Bo to the corpse in front of him and said, "While the Martial Emperor is not here, you can quickly absorb his force." ”

"Absorb force?" Zhou Bo was a little confused at first glance, but instantly remembered that the Dou clan could absorb the force of others, and now Ya Xi was letting himself absorb his force.

Jian's body slashed and fleshed, his face was hideous, his pupils were scattered, and he knew at a glance that he was extremely unwilling to die, and on his body, there was a rich black qi floating, Zhou Bo knew that these martial qi were all treasures, and if he could absorb them all, he would at least be promoted to the martial spirit level.

No longer hesitating, Zhou Bo stroked the black martial qi with one hand, and in an instant he felt the infinite power like a tidal surge, rushing towards his body frantically, Zhou Bo only felt that the sky was spinning, and his body was like a huge container, absorbing all the forces from the outside world, and then fusing with each other in his own body, refining, and finally becoming his own power.

This Jianxi's force is really not ordinarily strong, after absorbing it for ten minutes, he didn't even see a trace of exhaustion, and he heard Yaxi say in his ear that after this person dies, the force will drift away and disappear in an instant, and he only absorbed almost half of the force, which is not much, but because of the gap in strength, there will be this illusion.

Since the spirit of the green dragon was unsealed, Zhou Bo clearly saw that in the position of his black spirit embryo, there was an elliptical halo like the universe, emitting a white and vast light, and his heart was excited, this should be his fighting spirit.

And without the hindrance of Qinglong's spirit, his own force seems to have a place to go, and all of it flows into the fighting spirit, which also makes Jianxi's force have a place to store.

In the end, after almost an hour of absorption, Zhou Bo finally absorbed all of Jairus's force, while the latter's body became shriveled and withered, as if the last drop of life had been squeezed dry

Zhou Bo clenched his fists, and suddenly, the powerful force burst out like a bomb, and Ya Xi was pleasantly surprised: "Great, your current strength is a martial spirit!"

Zhou Bo was about to answer, countless colored smoke snakes suddenly appeared around his body, these smoke snakes were extremely weird, completely ignoring Zhou Bo's strong strength at this time, and instantly burrowed into Zhou Bo's body, devouring Zhou Bo's flesh and soul as if crazy.

In just a moment's effort, Zhou Bo's body was swallowed, and even his soul was torn into a blank by countless smoke snakes, leaving not even a trace of memory.

The smoke snakes surged, broke through the barrier of the world, and took Zhou Bo's blank soul to a new world.

The blank soul re-entered the mother's body, and gradually grew up, becoming a young man.

The country is not a country, the taxes and miscellaneous taxes are heavy, the civil strife is constantly intensifying, and the disasters and famines are everywhere, and there is little place for stability.

The scorching sun and the heat fumigation in Ningxian County are like fire! The streets are full of traffic and bustle, and the common people who come and go are busy working non-stop to prevent famine and store grain.

Passing through the crowd, a young man of twelve or thirteen years old was sitting cross-legged beside the Land Temple with his back straight, surrounded by several bundles of firewood more than half a person high.

The young man wore a straw ring on his head, his head was haphazardly tied behind his head, and his patched clothes looked particularly depressed. It's just that his dark and immature face is full of vitality, and his eyes are faintly stubborn and persistent. Although sweaty, he has a calm temperament and seems out of place with the noisy crowd around him.

……

"Alas!"

With a sigh, the young man shook his head in disappointment: "It seems that there may not be any gains today." ”

The boy's name is Zhou Bo, and he is twelve years old this year. His mother Ning died when he gave birth, so he has been dependent on his father Zhou Tan, living on a small hillside outside Ningxian County, and usually hunting for a living.

Originally, the life of a family of two was quite fed, but in a hunt, Zhou Tan was accidentally injured by a poisonous snake in his right foot in order to save the child, and he could not walk normally, so Zhou Bo took on the responsibility of the family at a young age, and he was only in his early seven years old that year.

Now five years have passed, the child has grown into a little boy, and Zhou Bo has finally become a clever hunter with his wisdom and hard work. However, in the past few years, there has been continuous civil strife, and it is difficult to stabilize his life, so in order to survive, he has to go into the city to try.

Today, Zhou Bo picked these bundles of firewood to the city early, preparing to sell them and exchange them for more things in order to prepare for the future. It's a pity that half a day has passed, and he has never paid attention to it, how can this not disappoint him!

"Let's go back first, there are a lot of things to prepare for the evening. Zhou Bo sighed softly, got up and patted the dust and prepared to leave.

"Xiaowa, do you sell your firewood? I want to buy it all, and I'm waiting to use it." ”

At this moment, someone on the other side of the crowd suddenly shouted to stop him, but it was an old man who was over half a hundred years old.

The old man was dressed in simple green clothes, with a gray head and a kind face, and rushed to Zhou Bo after squeezing the crowd for two or three steps.

Hearing that the other party was going to buy firewood, Zhou Bo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Old man, there are four bundles of firewood here for a total of eight yuan, if you want, I can help you send it back." After speaking, the young man looked at the old man quietly, nervous and nervous.

"Uh! I want eight cents...... the old man calculated in his heart, and said secretly: "This firewood is quite cheap." ”

After thinking for a while, the old man nodded and said, "Well, then you can help me send it to the backyard of the teahouse opposite, my guy is waiting to make tea." Huh!"

"Okay!" Zhou Bo happily picked up Chai He and walked towards the teahouse.

Looking at the young man's thin but straight back, the old man was stunned.

……

Under the leadership of the old man, the two walked into the backyard of the teahouse one after the other.

Zhou Bo habitually looked at the surrounding environment, it is not very big, but the overall look is very simple and tidy, there is a lush big banyan tree in the middle of the yard, under the sun......

Vibrant.

The old man looked at Zhou Bo's alert appearance, and couldn't help but smile and said: "My old man likes simplicity, but it makes the little doll smile, hehe...... Xiaowa, I see that you have a good body and bones, exercise since you were a child, and now there are fewer and fewer children like you who are willing to endure hardships. As he spoke, the old man pointed to the small shed next to the well, and said, "Just put the firewood in that little shed." ”

"Yes. ”

Zhou Bo nodded, put the firewood into the small shed, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, turned to the old man and said, "Is this okay?"

"Hehe, that's it. Then the old man scooped a bowl of water from the wellhead and handed it to Zhou Bodao: "The weather is so hot, let's take a break and drink saliva." ”

"You can't accept other people's things ......in vain" Zhou Bo looked at the bowl of water, licked his chapped lips, hesitated, and finally shook his head and refused.

The old man seemed to understand what the young man was thinking, and said gently: "It's just a glass of water, so it should be a reward for you to help me deliver firewood." ”

Although Zhou Bo was not sociable, he was not a pedantic person, so he thanked him and took the water bowl.

The old man swept his beard with satisfaction, and continued: "Actually, I have been paying attention to you in the teahouse for a few days, and I think you are quite interesting. ”

"I don't think it's interesting. Zhou Bo frowned when he heard this, and his face was a little unhappy.

Come to think of it, sitting in the sun on a hot day is naturally not an interesting thing. If so, who wouldn't want to stay comfortably under a tree and enjoy the cool breeze?

The old man was stunned, and then explained: "Don't get me wrong, little baby, I don't mean anything else, it's just the first time I met a young man with such great perseverance as you, and I was a little surprised." ”

Seeing that Zhou Bo was silent, the old man changed the topic and said, "Little baby, do you rarely go into the city?"

Zhou Bo shook his head.

"Then you just don't know, like this season, firewood is not easy to sell?"

Zhou Bo nodded.

"Now that you know, why do you still sit there and sell firewood every day?"

“......”

"Didn't you think about doing something else?"

"I can only hunt and chop wood!"

Zhou Bo quietly looked at the bowl in his hand, as if he had a lot on his mind.

Of course, he is not the only one, these years of hard life have already taught him to be independent. It's just that he has been ostracized and abused by the people in the village since he was a child, and he is inevitably a little resentful and withdrawn in his heart, except for his relatives, he doesn't care about anyone, so he doesn't want to communicate with others.

……

After drinking the water, Zhou Bo said directly: "Old man, since there is nothing wrong, then I want to go back first." ”

The old man looked up at the scorching sky, his eyes returned to the young man and said, "It's noon, and the sun is fierce, why don't you go back later?" After speaking, he took out eight copper coins from his sleeve and handed them to the other party.

"No, there are still people waiting for me to go back, thank you for your kindness. Zhou Bo refused, took the copper coin and counted it carefully, and then carefully put it into his arms.

"Little baby, how about sending me four bundles of firewood every three days in the future? ”

Without waiting for Zhou Bo to answer, the old man walked up as he spoke, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am the owner of this teahouse, and now the teahouse business is good, and I need some firewood every day.

Unexpectedly, this plainly dressed old man turned out to be the owner of such a big teahouse.

Of course, Zhou Bo didn't care about this, as long as he could make money, so he replied seriously: "Okay, I will definitely deliver the harvest on time, please rest assured!"

"Haha-"

The old man said happily: "My name is Su Fanghao, and you will call me Grandpa Su in the future." ”

Looking at the old man's sincere eyes, Zhou Bo's heart was touched: "My name is Zhou Bo......"

……

The slanting sun shone on the hillside outside the village, which looked so harmonious and beautiful from a distance, and the dilapidated thatched hut on the hillside looked particularly lonely in the faint light of dusk.

After returning home, Zhou Bo put down the large bags of goods brought back from the city, and his heart was full of joy. looked up at the sky outside the window, and couldn't help muttering: "Dad should go up the mountain to collect medicine, it seems that he will come back in a while, I will go and prepare first." With that, he went to the back room.

The inner room looks very simple, so simple that it can even be described as simple, except for a large kang bed and two broken quilts, there are only some tools for hunting.

……

Sitting on the kang bed, Zhou Bo was sharpening arrows, when he suddenly heard a familiar footstep outside the house, so he put down the tools in his hand and got up to welcome him.

"Daddy—"

"Oh, Bo is back, it's early today. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a thin body and a bearded face appeared outside the door. After he put down the medicine basket on his body, he limped in front of Zhou Bo step by step, patted the other party's shoulder and said, "You still have to hunt tonight, let me go get some food, you go ahead and prepare......"

This person is Zhou Tan, Zhou Bo's father, wearing shabby clothes, a pair of calloused hands, a slightly sickly dark face, and cloudy but sharp eyes. Once, he was the best hunter in this area, but now he is not only unable to hunt, but even has to bear the entanglement of residual poison, and can only rely on dragon snake herbs to suppress the poison every day.

"Well, it's almost ready. Zhou Bo paused, then walked to the table and said, "Dad, these are all things I got from selling firewood in the city, enough for us to use for a while." Moreover, the owner of the teahouse asked me to send him firewood every three days, and I think our future life will be stable for the time being. As he spoke, he handed his father a bag of rice grain on the table.

Zhou Tan took the rice grain and said with a pleased smile: "Child, I have suffered you all these years, but you have never disappointed me, I think your mother will be proud of you in the spirit of heaven." As he spoke, he looked at the sunset outside the window, and was silent for a while, and there was an indescribable cold silence in the room.

Seeing this, Zhou Bo said with a smile: "Mother knows, I will continue to work hard." ”

Zhou Tan came back to his senses and laughed at himself: "Hehe, I didn't expect to be so sad at my age, it's really ...... Come on, I'll go get some food first. After finishing speaking, he patted Zhou Bo on the shoulder and walked out of the house.

Looking at his father's back, Zhou Bo felt very uncomfortable. In fact, he understands his father's feelings, but the people who are alive are still alive......

After standing for a while, Zhou Bo turned into the inner room and continued to prepare tools.
