In the blink of an eye, more than 20 days have passed.

North of the city, in the small courtyard.

At five or six o'clock in the morning, Li Mingyu got up from the bed, washed up a little, and went to the kitchen to check the fire in the charcoal stove. It was still burning, and I was immediately relieved.

A jar was boiled on the top of the carbon stove, and the lid was uncovered, and a strong medicinal aroma and faint fishy smell were boiled for almost twenty hours, and the original large jar of fresh blood and herbal liquid turned into a crimson ointment at this time, which was very viscous.

Looking at the color, the effect of this jar of boiling is not bad, Li Mingyu dipped a little paste with chopsticks and tasted it, the taste was just right, and he affirmed the idea in his heart.

At the beginning, due to his lack of experience in configuration, Li Mingyu often boiled more than a dozen cans, and could only succeed in one or two cans, at that time, in order to save time and improve efficiency, he often used some medicinal materials with less years to practice, and boiled seven or eight cans at a time.

It wasn't until the past few days that he became more and more proficient in the method of boiling medicinal liquids, and the success rate had increased to about half, that he began to take out those high-quality medicinal materials and really start refining.

Among them, the main drugs for the preparation of "Essence Blood Pill", such as Juguang Grass, Purple Lingzhi, and Earth Keel, were all purchased by Li Mingyu from several pharmacies at a high price, and each flavor was at least fifty years of high-grade medicinal materials, and the blood was also the blood of a black bear that had lived for hundreds of years, which he specially sent from the head office in Youzhou at a pharmacy called Gucaozhai at a large price.

In order to boil out the small jar of plaster in front of him, Li Mingyu almost spent more than 1,500 taels of silver, but fortunately, he succeeded in this fluke, otherwise he would definitely vomit blood in distress.

The stolen goods that he got from Zhao Hu's hands last time, after he smelted them into gold and silver, were almost more than two thousand taels, and these days after the early practice and this time, this silver has also consumed seventy-seven eighty-eight, at least in a short period of time, it is impossible to take out such a large amount of silver.

………………

The paste in the small clay pot also became more and more viscous, and finally turned into a crimson paste, Li Mingyu knew that the heat was almost over, so he quickly took the clay pot off the charcoal stove and left it to dry for about half an hour.

At this time, the red ointment in the crockpot happened to become warm, and he took out a small packet of medicinal powder, which was grayish-white in color, and used extremely enlightening and refreshing medicines such as borneol and musk to prepare it as medicine.

Mix the powder and ointment, add an appropriate amount of honey, stir and mix to make a dark red medicinal mud, and then knead it into a pill the size of a longan.

It was a little less than Li Mingyu had expected, but it was almost enough for him to break through to the Qi and Blood Realm, and the "Little Essence Blood Pill" that he had practiced before had eaten too much, which had no effect on him at the peak of his strength.

So this time he had to take out most of his worth and dispense this batch of stronger ones, this time the medicinal effect was so strong, it was no longer appropriate to call it "Little Essence Blood Pill", so Li Mingyu called it a weak "Essence Blood Pill".

……………………

Seven or eight days later.

Compared with a few days ago, Li Mingyu has grown three or four centimeters taller, and he looks almost one meter seven or eight at the moment, and his whole face is full of red light.

is different from the previous delicate and thin young man, more like a strong guy about twenty years old with plenty of blood and energy.

Li Mingyu cleared, this is the result of him eating too much weak "essence and blood pills" in a short period of time, causing too much qi and blood in his body, at this time he can hear the powerful beating sound of his heart "bang bang bang!" as if he is beating a drum, the sound of blood in his veins flowing like a big river, at this time his spirit and spirit are all at the peak realm, and he is only a little short of breaking through to the qi and blood realm.

Li Mingyu poured out a crimson pill the size of a dragon's eye from a small porcelain bottle, his eyes only looked at the pill in his hand, this was the last weak "essence blood pill", whether he could break through the qi and blood realm or not, it was all up to him today.

After hesitating for a moment, he swallowed the pill in one gulp.

………………

Li Mingyu's whole body was red, and his nose exhaled white air, and he felt as if he was a pit bull that had eaten gunpowder, as if it was about to explode.

………………

Another half an hour passed, he was covered with sweat, as if he had been waterlogged out of the water, his face had turned black and red, his heart was beating like a drum, the blood moon in his veins was rattling, and the qi and blood in his body had accumulated to the peak, and he was about to lose control.

Li Mingyu couldn't hold back any longer, he didn't let out a loud shout, poured all the qi and blood power of his whole body into his right hand, and then slapped it out with one palm, hitting it heavily on a bluestone the size of a millstone in the courtyard.

"Poof" did not make the loud noise he imagined, and his palm, which was infused with all his strength, qi and blood, seemed to hit not on the hard boulder, but on the broken cotton wool, making a tattered soft sound.

Li Mingyu exhaled a long breath and stood up with his palm, the cyan boulder looked intact on the surface.

However, a strong wind blew, and patches of lime flew up on the bluestone, revealing thin holes like sieves, crackling and crackling like cobwebs, and then turning into lime-like gravel and completely shattered.

Li Mingyu looked at the dense sweat on his hands, his face showed a faint joy, and he finally entered the realm of qi and blood.

Just in that palm is the dark energy that he controls the qi and blood in his body, it looks silent, and there is no damage to the boulder, in fact, the dark energy has gone deeper, destroying the internal structure.

However, although the power of dark energy is great, the consumption of physical strength is also very great, and with dark energy like that just now, Li Mingyu is estimated to be able to hit seven or eight times in battle.

………………

The north gate of Qinghe Mansion, an inn thirty miles away.

As more than a month ago, Li Mingyu sat in the corner, asked for half a catty of beef, a large plate of hot and sour beans, a cold dish with cucumber and a pot of soju, drank wine and ate vegetables over and over again, and paid attention to useful news over and over again.

The difference is that the shopkeeper and the guys in the inn have all changed, and even the signboard of the inn has changed.

"Brother Liu, why haven't you been here for a while, why has the inn changed owners?"

"You don't know, more than a month ago, Zhao Hu on the wanted list suddenly appeared and killed all the shopkeepers, guys and guests in the inn.

"So bold!"

"Not only that, it is said that three of the four heroes of the Guiling Gate who were present at the time, and the youngest daughter of the head Yin Cailian also died. ”

"Then can the Guiling Gate not be angry, will it let go of that bald Zhao Hu?"

"What's more, the head of the Guiling Gate has already brought the lawsuit to the six gates of Youzhou, plus more than 20 people died at that time, it is a shocking case, it is said that even the chief arrester of the six doors of Youzhou has been alarmed, and the sea fishing document has been issued, and the giant evil Zhao Hu is wanted in the whole state!"

"Did Zhao Hu catch it?"

"It's strange to say, that Zhao Hu almost disappeared after the bloody case. The people of the six gates, the officials of the government and the more than a dozen small and medium-sized sects led by Guilinmen have simply turned over the entire Youzhou, but they can't find Zhao Hu!"

"Did you flee to another country?"

……

The two young men who spoke were dressed as warriors, one was a fat man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, who looked smooth and shrewd, and looked like an old man, and the other was a hairy boy in his early twenties, who looked immature and should be a novice in the rivers and lakes.

From the mouths of the two, Li Mingyu has a general understanding of what has happened recently.

The impact of the inn tragedy was so great that it shocked Qinghe Mansion and even Youzhou. The most important thing on the rivers and lakes is fighting, and there are also martial artists in Qinghe Mansion who clash every day, but there are very few tragedies and major cases in which more than 20 people are slaughtered, not to mention that there are also disciples in this Guiling Sect.

and Li Mingyu carried all the pots on Zhao Hu, and the head of the Lingmen was furious about this matter, not only sued the case to the helm of the six gates of Youzhou, but also gave up the encirclement and suppression of Heifeng Village, and gathered more than a dozen small and medium-sized sects to arrest the bald Zhao Hu.

However, Zhao Hu's body has already been buried by Li Mingyu, and it should be rotten to bones at this time, and where is he wanted.

Li Mingyu was secretly glad about his previous arrangement, as long as they couldn't find Zhao Hu's body, they wouldn't suspect him.

…………

Li Mingyu came out this time, mainly to continue the previous task of suppressing bandits, first, he had just broken through to the realm of qi and blood, and he needed his opponents to adapt to his strength, and second, he didn't have much money on him, so he would earn some bounties by the way. With the strength of his early stage of qi and blood, as long as he was not unlucky enough to meet Hu Tianba, the master of the Great Village, who was said to have broken through to the true qi realm, there would be no danger.

The True Qi Realm is also a master in the acquired realm, and the highest level in Qinghe Mansion is only the silver medal headhunter of the six doors, Xiao Weihe, who is a true qi master, but for the innate divine power, Hu Tianba, who has a pair of one hundred and twenty catties of sharp weapons Blood Sky Axe, may not be able to take any advantage. This is also the reason why Black Wind Village has been able to occupy Black Cliff Mountain for so long, but it has not been exterminated.

However, in addition to Hu Tianba, the remaining two and three masters of Heifeng Village are just the middle and middle stage realm of internal breath, but they are nothing, even if Li Mingyu is not the other party's talk, if he wants to run, the other party will not be able to keep it.

……

At night, in the room of the inn.

The room is very simple, about a dozen square meters, an ordinary wooden bed, covered with bedding, a shelf for hanging clothes, a small square table, on which tea is placed, and nothing else.

Li Mingyu, as usual, meditated and practiced "Mixed Yuan Jin" for almost an hour, and after finishing the exercises, the night was already deep.

"Forget it, let's do it, go to bed first, and get up early tomorrow to go into the mountains. Li Mingyu muttered a few words, then took off the bag on his back, and then stuffed the bag under the bed, then undressed, took off his shoes, and went to bed.

The next day, early in the morning, Li Mingyu got up early, moved his hands and feet in the house briefly, and then went downstairs to eat.

For breakfast, I had porridge, fritters and pickles. After eating, Li Mingyu asked Xiao Er to wrap ten steamed buns and two catties of beef to bring with him as food after entering the mountain today.

…………

However, the journey of more than 30 miles was to conserve physical strength, and he did not walk fast, and when it was almost noon, Li Mingyu still came to the foot of Black Cliff Mountain.

The Black Cliff Mountain is not high, only 17,800 meters, the mountain is lush with vegetation and trees, but the mountain is very dangerous.

The mountain is steep, the mountain is standing on the wall, and the road up the mountain has only one winding mountain path, the road is winding, winding and circling like a snake to the main peak, and before the mountain road, there is a valley, and this valley is the only passage into the Black Wind Mountain.

Li Mingyu stood outside the valley at this time, and when he looked north, he could see the mouth of the valley, and behind him, that is, to the south, was an endless plain.

Li Mingyu stood in place, first looked around, and finally looked in the direction of the valley, according to the news he inquired about before, the valley in front of him was called Black Wind Valley, which was the mountain guard guard post of the Black Wind Village bandits, and there were many bandit sentries in the valley.

If there is a caravan or traveler passing by, the bandit sentry in the valley with a small number will come out to collect the toll, and the toll will be divided according to the value of the goods, usually three to four percent, and this proportion of the commission is also extremely heavy among the bandits. If someone is dissatisfied or resists, they will all be killed and all the goods will be pulled away.

And when a team of officials or warriors comes to suppress bandits, this bandit sentry is the front line of early warning, relying on geographical advantages to resist the official army over and over again, and raising wolf smoke again and again to signal the cottage.

Li Mingyuan stayed in place and rested for a while, and then slowly moved towards the valley, looking around vigilantly as he went......

About ten minutes later, Li Mingyu finally came to the near of the valley, he hid behind a huge bluestone, cautiously poked his head out to look into the valley, and saw a wooden watchtower at the mouth of the valley.

When Li Mingyu saw the watchtower, he was shocked, and quickly retracted his head, this watchtower will increase the field of vision of people standing on it, and they can see things far away.

"It's not good! There is a watchtower at the mouth of the valley, this bandit in the Black Wind Village is really cautious, in this way, as long as he shows his head, he will be discovered by the bandits, what should I do now!"

Li Mingyu said indignantly in his heart. Then he squatted behind the bluestone and thought about it, and suddenly saw the trees and weeds around the bluestone, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

"That's it," he said secretly.

Soon Li Mingyu took some branches and some slender weeds around, and knitted a straw hat for himself, but this straw hat was crooked and ugly, but he himself had this craft, and he could only deal with it like this.

Looking at this weird straw hat, Li Mingyu grinned, and still put him on his head, although it didn't look good, it would be good if it worked.

Then he cautiously poked his head out from behind the cyan boulder to observe the situation in the valley......

Fortunately, it should be the straw hat that played a hidden role and did not attract the attention of the bandits.

He estimated that the thief's watchtower was about 30 meters away from him, and there were two bandit archers standing on the watchtower, and under the watchtower stood three bandits, two of the thieves with spears, spearmen, standing in front of the watchtower, and another bandit with a waist knife, sitting on a bamboo chair behind the watchtower, judging by his clothes, should be the small leader of these bandits.

"Four bandits, a small leader. There are five people in the watchtower at the mouth of this valley, and there must be more bandits in the sentry posts in the valley, at least dozens of them. Li Mingyu secretly calculated in his heart.

He can't deal with more than a dozen people, as long as he uses fishing tactics to lure out the bandits in waves.

However, Li Mingyu estimates that as long as he shows up, as long as the bandits are not stupid, they will give a warning. At that time, the thieves in the valley poured out, the sword was eyeless, and there were more than a dozen or even twenty or thirty people, even Luo Luo, who was in the forging realm, was not something he could handle. What's more, a few of their small leaders must have good hands in the Qi and Blood Realm.

At that time, a bloody battle will kill them all, and if they are hung up or even lose one or two pieces on their bodies, they will also lose a lot.

It's definitely not okay to attack during the day, but what about a sneak attack at night......?

Li Mingyu thought about it carefully, but unfortunately, he has no experience in night fighting, and his vision is not clear at night, there are many bandits and they are veterans of chaotic warfare, don't sneak attack if you can't succeed but be stabbed by others, then you will really laugh and be generous.

He kept scanning the situation in the lookout pavilion and the valley back and forth, but he couldn't find any flaws, and after a long time, Li Mingyu couldn't help but be a little impatient, and as soon as he was impatient, he would have some impulsive thoughts......

"Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, rush out and test it first!"

"No, it's too risky, I'm just in the Qi and Blood Realm, before the Inner Breath Realm, I can't do light work without internal strength, even if I rush to the watchtower, I can only stare dryly, and when the archers above release their arrows, I can only be shot!"

Li Mingyu quickly held back his emotions.

"It would be nice if we could lure the bandits out one by one, especially those two condescending archers. But Li Mingyu also knew that it was impossible, the bandits were uneducated, but they were not stupid, how could they blow up their shortcomings.

Li Mingyu now regrets a little, if he is more prepared to come again, it is best to bring a bow and arrow, but it is more than 30 meters away, there are bows and arrows, first release cold arrows to kill one or two bandits, after angering the other party, and then lure the bandits out, kill if there is less, flee if there is more, and fly a kite to kill the other party.

"Otherwise, let's go back to Qinghe Mansion first, even if you can't sell it for a military attack, it's good to get a hunter. ”

As soon as Li Mingyu's idea appeared, he was eager to try, but he went back like this, but he was a little unwilling. At this time, the grass around him moved, and a big gray fat rabbit came out of his head and attracted his attention.

Looking at the rabbit that suddenly ran out, Li Mingyu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, so he picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at the hare.......

………………

Liu Gazi was originally an ordinary farmer in Liujiazhuang, Qinghe Mansion, but he was too greedy, and when he was working at the house of the wealthy old man Liu three years ago, he secretly stole the big black dog in the nursing home of the Liu family, killed and ate meat.

I think that when he was roasting dog meat by the river, he was accidentally seen by Zhang Er from the same village and reported it to Master Liu.

As a result, he was caught by Master Liu's family and beaten half to death, not to mention, Master Liu had to twist him to the government and let him squat in prison to eat prison food.

Fortunately, he was clever, and on the way to Fucheng, he took the opportunity to escape under the pretext of peeing. However, he didn't dare to go back to Liujiazhuang, so he simply went to Black Cliff Mountain and became a little minion in Black Wind Mountain.

When he went to the cottage, he found that all the heroes of the rivers and lakes eat meat in large pieces, drink wine in big bowls, and divide gold and silver on the scales, how refreshing, and the words in the mouth of the storyteller are all deceitful.

As a little minion at the bottom, Liu Gazi doesn't even eat meat, and even oil and water are not common. For example, I ate two weeds this morning, and I had to stand guard here under the sun.

"It's better than being a hired employee for Liu Heixin. Liu Ga muttered in his heart, Liu Heixin was the nickname he gave to Master Liu.

Suddenly, Liu Gazi's eyes lit up, and a gray hare appeared more than ten meters away, the hare was big and fat, but it seemed to be injured and limping backwards.

"There's meat to eat" raised his head to look at the two people on the watchtower who didn't seem to notice, and secretly rejoiced: "Good opportunity".

Nodding and bowing, he came to the little leader, Zhang He, and said to the other party who was sitting on the bamboo chair squinting and resting: "Zhangtou, I'll go for convenience!"

"Go and come back quickly, you have the most and pee!" Zhang He opened his eyes and found that it was his greedy and lazy Liu Gazi who disturbed his rest, and waved his hand impatiently.

After Liu Gazi came out, he found that the hare had run away, and it had reached thirty or forty meters away, he was not in a hurry but happy, he was afraid that Zhang He and others would find out that he could not eat alone, otherwise he who was most looked down upon would be able to get a rabbit butt at most.

…………

Five or six miles away.

Liu Gazi pounced, grabbed the hare in his arms, and turned around to see that the watchtower had become a black spot.

"This time, you won't find out, I'll go back when I've finished roasting the hare and eaten it, and I won't even have a single hair on you!" he was secretly smug in his heart, but he didn't notice that a figure in the woods on the side was rushing towards him.

…………

More than half an hour later, the bandit watchtower.

The little leader, Zhang He was lost for a while, but when he opened his eyes, he found that only Wang Er was standing in front of him.

"What, went to poop, hasn't come back yet, has he pulled his pants, can he use it for so long" Zhang He said loudly and dissatisfied.

"Liu Gazi has been chasing something, and has been walking south in the direction of Qinghe Mansion," Wang Er hesitated.

"Liu Tou should be Zhang Gazi found a hare," an archer Xun Shan said.

"Hare, okay, this Liu Gazi" Zhang He said angrily, how could he not know now, this Liu Gazi was hiding and eating alone.

"Wang Er, well, and Xun Shan, you two will catch Liu Gazi this bastard back for me together, and I will teach him a good lesson." Zhang He hesitated for a moment and commanded.

Wang Er is too cowardly, he is afraid that he will not be able to control Liu Gazi alone.

………………

Another hour passed, and the bandit watchtower.

Zhang He had already stood up from his chair and was walking back and forth irritably.

It's been an hour, not only did Liu Gazi not come back, but even Wang Er and Xun Shan, who went to chase him, never returned.

His face was gloomy, and he realized that something must have happened if the three of them never returned. Liu Gazi and Wang Er didn't say anything, Xun Shan knew that he was a very cautious person, and for so long, even if he couldn't find Liu Gazi, he would definitely come back to give him news first.

"Li Han, you go with me...... Not true"

In general, Zhang He reacted, if there was an enemy, he would definitely be luring the snake out of the hole, and he and Li Han would simply throw themselves into the net if they went out to find someone again. It also made the watchtower completely undefended.

"Li Han, you keep a close eye on me, if a stranger appears, give me arrows, no one can come to the room, even Xunshan and them are the same, do you hear it! I will go to the three leaders to report, everything will be said when I come back." He gritted his teeth and said, then turned around and walked towards the valley.

The three Xunshan disappeared and were known by the three leaders, and as a small leader, he must be responsible. However, Zhang He is also a decisive person, he knows that the situation is urgent at this time, even if he is punished, he can't take care of it, he has a faint sense of crisis, I am afraid that if he delays the afternoon, even his life will be in danger.

Sou!

A sharp arrow shot at Zhang He with a sound of breaking through the air.

"Open your head, be careful!"

Burst!

"Ah!" The arrow pierced deep into his back, Zhang He's body stiffened, and when he turned around and looked back, he saw a young man wearing a straw hat, holding a bow and arrow, looking at him with cold eyes.

"Enemy ...... Enemy...... Attack!" He gritted his teeth and spat out a few words, and fell to the ground in the darkness in front of him, completely plunged into darkness.

However, his death also bought time for his subordinates.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Li Han, the last remaining archer, took the opportunity to shout a warning in the valley, and then let out a miserable scream and fell from the arrow tower.

Li Mingyu put away his bow and arrows, and although he completely destroyed the five people in the watchtower, he was also successfully won the opportunity by the other party and sent a warning to the valley.

His face was a little ugly, this living bandit was more difficult to deal with than he imagined, the little leader surnamed Zhang was very vigilant, and as soon as he found out that something was wrong, he immediately decided to report to Gu Nei, even if he used a cold arrow to shoot the other party, but he still let him buy time for his companions and issued a warning.

At first, his plan went smoothly, using a hare to lure out a spearman named Liu Gazi, and after capturing the other party, he successfully forced a lot of information about the sentry in the valley and the Black Wind Village from his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, he used Liu Gazi to easily solve the two people who came over, Wang Er and Xun Shan. As long as Zhang He's little leader and the remaining archers are finally lured out, this small lookout post will be completely solved quietly, and he can go to the valley to feel the situation. When the time comes, take the opportunity to set a fire and create some chaos, and inevitably cut off the heads of a few bandits.

Unexpectedly, in the end, the success fell short, and the little leader named Zhang He was destroyed.

After receiving the warning, the bandits in the valley will definitely swarm out, more than 20 bandits, three of whom are also in the four Tongli realms, two qi and blood realms, especially the three leaders of the bandits, are also in the valley at this time, and the realm in the early stage of internal rest is not something that Li Mingyu can deal with at all.

It seems that I can only find a chance to put a few cold arrows, and then I have to run away quickly, otherwise I will be surrounded by these bandits, and then I will really have to explain these hundred and eighty catties of meat here.

Now while the bandits in the valley haven't reacted yet, hurry up and clean up the battlefield.
