"Yes, yes, I broke through so quickly. Tu Manman patted him on the shoulder, and said with an old-fashioned look, "But don't be proud, the rapid progress only comes from a low starting point." ”

In this regard, Zhou Zixiu could only maintain a polite smile, he really didn't know how he broke through, as if the aura in his body suddenly skyrocketed, causing him to have to accept the change.

Compared with Tu Man's praise, Gao Yang and Zuo Yiyi had a different expression, and as sword practitioners, they were more regretful.

"Zixiu, why did you suddenly stop yesterday. Gao Yang asked.

Zhou Zixiu rubbed his arm, and the pain of being hit by that strong impact when he broke through had already dissipated: "At that time, I suddenly felt that the meridians all over my body seemed to be burst, and I had to stop to guide my luck and pranayama, and I didn't know how to break through." ”

Gao Yang sighed in his heart after hearing this, sure enough, the president was right, the meridians in Zixiu's body were too slender to withstand the level breakthrough brought by the sword enlightenment: "This kind of opportunity for epiphany is hard to find, if you can persist any longer, maybe you can reach the realm of the unity of man and sword, at that time you can be regarded as stepping into the threshold of the way of the sword, but the next time such an epiphany I don't know what year and month it will take, probably because your opportunity has not arrived, there is no shortcut to practice, or you have to rely on you step by step." ”

"Gao Yang is right, I didn't seize this opportunity, don't be presumptuous, there is still a long way to go, I have been practicing swords since I was a child, and it took seven years to comprehend the unity of human swords, and now I can't be full, you haven't practiced swords for a long time, and you can have such an epiphany to prove that your kendow is outstanding. Zuo Yiyi also spoke.

As the two spoke, they suddenly found that Zhou Zixiu lowered his head, his hands were on the ground, his whole body trembled, and he looked in pain, Tu Manman knew that Zhou Zixiu had missed such a precious opportunity, no wonder he didn't have a sense of joy at all, and said hurriedly: "Zixiu, even if you come step by step, you can achieve the unity of man and sword, don't force yourself too much, you have only learned the sword for a short time, and it is precious to be able to make such progress!"

"Yes, yes, Zixiu. Gao Yang also nodded.

Zhou Zixiu looked dazed: I broke through, but why did they seem to be comforting me?

Indeed, Zhou Zixiu's thinking is different from that of ordinary spiritual masters, in their eyes, this is an opportunity that is unattainable, and if there is such a proper epiphany when encountering a bottleneck, it is enough to reach a height that many people cannot reach in their lifetime. And he only thinks that he has entered a more ethereal state of mind, like writing a program to rise as if no one else is around.

Zhou Zixiu's hands trembled for a long time before he sighed faintly and raised his sad face: "Brother Yang, pull me up, my legs are numb!"

The three of them stared directly at Zhou Zixiu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and the only sound left in the air was the sound of falling leaves.

In the end, Tu Manman broke the silence and dragged him up from the ground.

"Slow down, slow down, it hurts...... Oh...... Hemp~~~" Zhou Zixiu held Tu Manman's arm, bent his body, bent into a circle like a circle of legs, and stood up cautiously.

All three of them felt the urge to kill this guy, and they were worried that he would be frustrated by accidentally missing the opportunity, and it seemed that they were thinking too much about it.

Tu Manman held Zhou Zixiu with one hand, and rewarded him with a roll of eyes without hesitation, this guy's brain circuit is really different from a normal person!

After the farce was over, the four of them began to set off towards the top of the North Cliff Mountain, there were only four days left before the date of the beak red lotus ripening, they had to sit down near the North Cliff Mountain to get ready and seize the opportunity, so as to give full play to their advantage of knowing the time and location.

"Let's just go straight to the top of the mountain?" Zhou Zixiu asked, didn't this become everyone's target?

This time, Tu Manman didn't speak, but Zuo Yiyi spoke: "The beak red lotus is once a year, and the location will change every year, so the people who come to try their luck are scattered all over the North Cliff Mountain, occupying a good place and waiting for the flowers to bloom." ”

Zhou Zixiu asked, "Wouldn't it be better if the beaked red lotus was detected before it matured and waited for the flowers to bloom?"

"The beaked red lotus grows differently from other plants, and until it matures, it is hidden somewhere in the interior of the North Cliff Mountain, which is difficult to detect, and this plant has no rhizomes and leaves. "Tu Barbarian said.

"Or maybe the whole plant of North Cliff Mountain is its rhizome and leaves. Zuo Yiyi added.

Gao Yang nodded again and again on the side: "Well, yes, that's it." ”

However, Tu Manman didn't have the idea of saving face for him at all: "Come less, I know you don't understand." ”

"That is to say, when we go to the top of the mountain, no one will pay too much attention to us, but there is an extra team of stunned greens who try their luck, and the best case scenario is that when the flowers bloom, we will go down and pick the flowers, and then leave as little as possible without alarming anyone. Tu Manman continued.

"Although I don't know how the Zuo family deduced the ripening period and location of this year's beaked red lotus, the Wang family will assign the second eldest Wang Qibao to prove that they may also know. So we have to be prepared to snatch each other, and the worst plan is to alarm the others, especially those with bad intentions, and then we will have to find a way to run out of North Cliff Mountain. ”

So that's the case, Zhou Zixiu nodded, no wonder the barbarian would draw a map to show me in advance.

He clearly remembered that Tu Manman drew three routes on the simple map: east, west, and south!

"That's right, several great families in Weiwu City know it. Zuo Yiyi didn't shy away from saying, "It's because of Wang Qibao that I came over." ”

"Hmm. Tu Man replied savagely, and I have to say that Zuo Yiyi's words just dispelled many of her doubts.

"Stop. Gao Yang raised his hand to stop the three of them and said in a low voice, "There is movement around." ”

"Alien beast or human?" Tu Manman asked, she was not a spirit master, and she was not as sensitive as Gao Yang.

"Listen to the movement, it should be a strange beast. Zuo Yiyidao, his light body leaping back and forth between the trees, standing on a high place and observing the surroundings.

Gao Yang also pulled out the town mountain behind him, and Beiya Mountain almost every year at this time, many people from the surrounding seven cities came. Therefore, almost all of the strange beasts here live deep in the mountains, especially at this point in time, it is difficult to encounter them on the periphery.

"It's a herd of beasts!" Zuo Yiyi called.

Gao Yang immediately put away his sword and grabbed Tu Manman and Zhou Zixiu beside him, and quickly climbed to the top of the tree like a fully loaded ape, looking in the direction of the top of the mountain, whether it was the top of the North Cliff Mountain or the surrounding mountain cols, there were large groups of strange beasts constantly rushing to the periphery, surging, like a beast tide, and even the beasts in the mountains were among them!
