In the fourteenth year of Tianshun, the thirteenth month of winter.

Fog.

The whole sky was shrouded in fog, and the shadows of people could not be seen clearly within ten steps, and no matter how anxious people were, they would not dare to run fast, otherwise they would definitely bump into something. Such a fog is not suitable for travel.

Ning Du got up early, and after washing up, he went to the alley to eat a bowl of wontons and two baked cakes, got into the carriage that had been waiting here for a long time, and drove all the way to Fangyuan City.

In order to go to Fangyuan City for an appointment, Ning took three days off. Sima E wanted to accompany Ning Du together, but Ning Du refused him, so he could only advise.

The people who were watching around Gualiu Hutong day and night immediately passed the news and followed Ning Du's carriage closely.

With such a fog, they were all more than a hundred paces apart, and these people didn't even lose them, which shows that they are indeed experts in tracking.

Ning Du is like the center of a big net, moving slightly, I don't know how many places are involved.

From the trackers who coveted Yulong Street at the beginning, to the trackers who don't know the purpose now, Ning Du has become accustomed to it, and he has the right to think that these people are his bodyguards.

Sitting in the carriage, Ning Du didn't go to the cave to see how many people followed, but only closed his eyes and recuperated. He knew that this trip to Fangyuan City would not be "lonely", but he would not have thought about how many people would catch up.

It took three hours from Gualiu Hutong to Fangyuan City, and when Ning Du arrived, it was already past noon, and he took a boat alone, slowly drifting to the center of the lake, and stopped.

The boatman stopped and got on another boat and left, thinking that today's patron was very strange.

"I was given a lot of money, but I didn't need it, only let me pick up the boat tomorrow. It's not that I'm worried that he will steal my ship, although Fang Yuan City is so big, a ship is not easy to hide, not to mention that this ship is not worth a few dollars, and the money given is enough to buy a ship. Forget it, there are more weird people here, don't care about him, just let him go, as long as he doesn't sink my ship. Gave so much money, eat and drink to go. ”

The fog had cleared a little at noon, and as night approached, it seemed to be a little heavier, and even the lamps could not reflect the distance of twenty paces.

The ships could not see each other, and inevitably there were some collisions, which rippled slightly on the surface of the water, and after a while they disappeared and regained calm.

This kind of weather is not suitable for playing on the lake, after all, there are water ghosts who eat people and do not spit out bones.

Many people noticed the boats parked in the middle of the lake, but no one went up to inquire about who had parked here, and the reason why curiosity kills cats is quite applicable here.

The dense fog drowned everything, Fangyuan City almost became a castle in the air, and the hustle and bustle were all trapped everywhere, unable to break through the thick fog.

The lights that gradually lit up circled into separate areas, and people seemed to be in their own areas, never overstepping.

Fangyuan City didn't seem to be any different from usual.

Mr. Wu Yue, who was a waste of weapons, sat dry for ten years, even if the sky fell apart, it had nothing to do with him; Hu Ran drew circles on the ground boredly, looked up at Mr. Wu Yue from time to time, and then looked at Mr. Yu Tao, and finally sighed silently.

"Why are you hiding it from me? The young master is really, if you don't let me see it, forget it, and don't tell me anything!"

As early as last night, someone came and took away the seventy-eight Spring Breeze Swords and all the things made by Mr. Yu Tao, which made Hu Ran want to know more and more about what they were going to do.

"I've pressed another 30 million taels, young master, don't lose!"

Last time in the Qingyun test, Ning Du won Li Xiuxin, but he didn't win in the Qingyun test. There is no disagreement between winning and losing, but there is a disagreement in the gambling game, and most casinos deal with it as a flow game. Hu Ran didn't know why the casino ruled that she had won, but she had won anyway. She doesn't know how much money she has now, she just knows that she can't use it out, but that doesn't affect her desire to continue winning.

Hu Ran looked out and yawned, she had been waiting for this whole day in vain, and she was really bored.

"Do you want to wait?" Hu Ran couldn't help asking.

"Don't worry. If you're fine, learn those one hundred and eight veins. Mr. Wu Yue said.

"I think I can ......still wait," Hu Ran immediately said with a smile. She has a headache when it comes to studying, and doing anything is better than studying.

"Young master, you said that you would come to pick me up tomorrow morning, but don't break your promise again. ”

......

Like the three people waiting in the ruins, there were also many people waiting in Fangyuan City.

Today, the boatmen of Fangyuan City discovered a particularly strange thing after meeting while drinking in the evening.

"What, your boat was chartered too, and how much was it given to you?"

"A full twenty taels of silver. ”

"Give me twenty-five taels!" Obviously it was the same boat, and he charged five taels of silver more, and the boatman was of course happy in his heart.

"Suddenly, so many ships were collected, and they were all given enough silver taels, what is the big thing going to happen!"

Even ordinary people who didn't know how to cultivate knew that Fangyuan City was the world of cultivators, and it could be said that dead people here were normal. However, it is precisely because everything is related to the cultivators that the business here is so profitable. If it weren't for the compulsion of life, who would make a living here?

"It's best to stay home early today and never go out!"

"Reasonable! After drinking this cup, hurry up! I settle today's account!"

Not only the boatmen, but most of the people in Fangyuan City seemed to have gotten some news, locking the door early and turning off the lights, not wanting to get involved in anything.

......

It seems that all the boats in Fangyuan City have come out today, across the lake, and there is one every few dozen steps. This made the showgirl on the ship happy, and few people needed to listen to the music. Some of the boatmen sensed that something was wrong, took the boat early, and took the girl away from the lake.

The surface of the lake became more foggy, and the water became darker.

The boat that was parked in the middle of the lake was still silent.

"Ning Du has been here for a whole day, if that Jian Qi really exists, it should be here now. "A hundred paces away, in the boat, there were two people. Even if they didn't have any vitality fluctuations on their bodies, they didn't have human breath, so I am afraid that even if they were close at hand, most cultivators would find it difficult to detect.

"Are you sure Ning Du didn't leave?"

"Sure, he's always on that ship. ”

"How many people are around?"

"There are at least eighty people, and they are basically in the mountains. ”

"It seems that in addition to us, there are many forces that are eyeing Ning Du. ”

"Shang Chonggu's disciple, if you are in the Heavenly Capital, it is indeed very tricky. Once the big man of Shang Chong Gu is alarmed, no matter who it is, I am afraid that he will have to leave his life behind. ”

"That is, Shang Chonggu's disciples will be so young and vigorous, they are not afraid of everything to come to Fangyuan City to fight, and if they are others, I am afraid they will weigh whether this is a game set by others. Being young is good, but it's also deadly enough. ”

"Hmph, otherwise, the Southern Dark Fire Organization will fight on Confucius Street, and this time it will be absolutely foolproof!"

"Thanks to the dark fire that attracted the attention of Dongjin Palace, Dongjin Palace will not interfere in the affairs here. But speaking of which, Shang Chonggu was really so relieved that his disciples would go out of the Heavenly Capital?"

"If you don't worry, you won't be called Shang Chonggu! That madman, who in the world will he put in his eyes?"

But that's the same thing. ”

"When Ning Du finishes competing with Jian Qi, this will be a puddle of muddy water. It's up to anyone who can touch the big fish!"

......

"Yo, there are so many people around. Are these bodyguards like us?" the thin monkey looked around, as if the fog couldn't obstruct his vision at all.

As soon as the fat pig stepped out of the cabin, he was kicked back by Fei Ge.

"Honestly stay in the cabin, you ran to the bow to overturn the ship?"

The thin monkey snickered twice and said: "Directly cover it with the 'fog flower', no matter who he is, take him away together, and then go away to see which one is Ning Du, if not, kill it directly! Wait a little longer, when will it be the head!"

Fei Ge habitually slapped his face and reprimanded: "There are so many people, who are you kidnapping? Do you know what the people here are doing? What kind of realm are they? And all of them are taken away? You don't weigh how much you weigh! When the time comes, you will be the target of everyone, are you stupid?"

The thin monkey slapped his head and said, "Brother Fei is right! Let's wait for them to turn the world upside down here, and then sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman, maybe we can reap a lot of benefits!"

"Stay well, as long as you are sure that the person in front of you is Ning Du, there is no rush for anything! As a killer, the most important thing is to have enough patience!"

......

A flat boat, without a boatman's support, broke through the dense fog and slowly sailed towards the center of the lake.

"He's coming?"

Almost all of them were aware of the leaf boat and the sword qi that overflowed from the boat. It was a sword qi that was automatically formed by the vitality of the body without deliberately releasing it.

"I'm afraid that the realm doesn't surpass Jianshan, but he has such a strong sword qi!, this person is really the so-called Sword Seven?"

"If this person is Sword Seven, then Ning Du shouldn't be able to win! With such a powerful sword qi, even if you don't use your vitality, there are few people who can win it in the Mountain Realm!"

"I'm afraid that Shang Chonggu back then was nothing more than that! In this fateful revenge battle, the outcome is really unpredictable!"

The boat got closer and closer to the center of the lake, and finally stopped in the middle of the lake, less than ten steps away from the boat that had already stopped in the center of the lake.

The ripples on the surface of the lake gradually disappeared, and the two boats became a painting.

"It's been so long, and you haven't made a move?"

When they saw the mountain realm, they couldn't understand the two swordsmen whose realm was not high. Everyone stared intently into the depths of the thick fog, waiting for Jian Qi and Ning Du's thrilling sword.

The fog floats slightly, grinding away the light and softening it.

Suddenly, a voice came from a ship.

"My name is Jian Qi, I'm here to win you. ”
