It will take a few days to reach Wangsijiang, Xu Daoyun has already stabilized the realm, and began to study the new moves in the Heavenly Dao Sword Gang.

This is an extreme test of the monk's control of his own true qi, and the more delicate and mysterious the moves, the higher the requirements for the control of true qi.

Xu Daoyun's foundation is stable, the true qi is easy to manipulate, and he can retract and release it freely, these moves that need to be condensed and released can be understood as soon as he learns, which is also his advantage, which can be described as talented and intelligent, and his understanding is extremely high.

In just a few days, his swordsmanship has improved a lot, not only learning new moves, but also the connection with the sword is more inseparable.

At this time, he finally knew why sword cultivators generally didn't use their swords to perform flying sword skills, because swords were still connected with each other, but they were always separated by a distance.

Without a sword in his hand, this is simply a great torture for sword cultivation, so sword cultivation is often equipped with one, or even several flying swords, in case of emergency.

A few days later, Xu Daoyun rushed to Wangsi River.

It was the third time he had been here, and the third time he had seen the changes here.

When I first came to Wangsi River, it was prosperous and rich, with smoke curling and quiet and peaceful.

When I came to Wangsi River for the second time, the farmland was flooded by the river, and the houses and houses were all soaked in water.

This time I came to the Wangsi River, where the water did not recede but rose, and it had been submerged to the official road avenue, and the cottages that were half exposed on the water were completely submerged, and Xu Daoyun even saw the corpse with swollen furniture on the water surface.

What happened here when it fell to the ground?

While thinking like this, he suddenly heard the sound of roaring and fighting in the distance, Xu Daoyun turned his horse's head and hurried away.

Running out of the horse, Xu Daoyun saw from a distance that several strange-shaped monsters were besieging a person, who was wearing a fang-green and bright leather, and his figure was still a little familiar.

Running closer, Xu Daoyun recognized the besieged guy as Zhu Bo.

At this time, Zhu Bo was besieged by four water demons, and he struggled to resist with a waist knife in his hand, but he was seriously injured and weak, and he was about to be pounced on by the four water demons and eaten by him.

Just when Zhu Bo was about to kill himself with a horizontal sword, he suddenly heard a sound of breaking the air, and then there was a "ding" sound, and the waist knife he was lying across his neck was shot down, and then the white light flashed in front of him, and the four water demons fell to the ground on their backs, and a long sword like a cold moon and ghostly light spun around and flew towards the young man riding a horse not far away.

Zhu Bo's eyes widened, and he was still a little frightened, as if he had not yet recovered from the shock of escaping death, his mouth opened and closed, and he muttered: "Xu... Xu Daoyun?"

Xu Daoyun flew off the horse, looked at the four bloody monster corpses on the ground, and frowned: "What is this, it's so fishy, Brother Zhu, are you okay?"

Zhu Bo reluctantly stood up, covered his mouth and nose to stay away from those monsters, and said weakly: "This... This is the water demon, Daoyun, thanks to you coming in time, otherwise I would have been their ration today. ”

Xu Daoyun said: "Brother Zhu is polite, we are colleagues, and we should support each other." By the way, why are you alone here besieged and the others?"

Zhu Bo said while taking the elixir of rejuvenating qi and healing: "I also returned from a mission, and I was informed that there were a large number of water demons in Wangsi River, and I came to help. ”

"I see. Xu Daoyun nodded, and then said: "It seems that the villages on this side of the Wangsi River have all been washed by the blood of the water demon, and the commander must have made them all fight the water demon in Jiang Depo, let's go over." ”

Zhu Bo said distressedly: "The two sides of the Wangsi River are far apart, the north and south are longitudinal and horizontal, and there are no boats and rafts, even if there are, there are countless water demons in the river, how can they cross?"

Xu Daoyun waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, twenty miles north of here, there is a Yu Mountain, which can go around to the other side." ”

Zhu Bo said: "Great, it's just that my horse has been dragged into the water by the water demon, and now he is seriously injured, so he can't run and hurry." ”

Xu Daoyun grinned, "Brother Zhu Bo, where is it, how can I let you run on the ground? Let's get on the horse and ride together, anyway, this horse is strong and strong, and it is easy to carry you and me." ”

The two of them rode their horses to the north, and the horses ran by the river, when suddenly the water on the river exploded, and a monster bigger than a sheep, green and full of pimples, came out of the water and pounced!

Xu Daoyun grabbed the reins with his right hand, turned his left hand into a sword finger, and waved forward!

A condensed white true qi swept out from between his fingers and slammed into the monster's body, and then the wave of qi exploded, knocking it out of the water.

"Dismount!"

The two jumped off their horses, and then the river continued to explode, and dozens of monsters jumped out of the water, like hungry tigers pounced.

Xu Daoyun's eyes rolled, summoned the Chonghe sword, blocked Zhu Bo behind him, put the sword momentum, luck into the sword, and shouted: "Even the waves are stacked!"

A wave of qi emanated from Xu Daoyun's body, Zhu Bo was forced to retreat a few steps, and then he saw that the true qi in Xu Daoyun's body gathered in the sword body, and with a wave of the long sword, the sword qi was like a white wave, setting off a wave of waves, layer upon layer, endless, and when he landed, he strangled the dozens of water demons that rushed into the sword wave and rushed into the river.

The sword qi entered the river, and the river water spread in all directions, and a bright red cloud floated from the river and slowly floated away.

Zhu Bo's eyes widened, and he stumbled: "This... Is this the sword cultivation of the Qi Refining Realm?"

Xu Daoyun's face was full of joy that could not be concealed, he laughed, threw the Chonghe sword behind him, and turned into white light and flew into the sword box.

He is confident, if he confronts Sun Kai at this time, he will definitely not fall behind.

"After holding it for so long, I've finally learned a few powerful moves. ”

Zhu Bo exclaimed: "Just now, your sword qi is like an overwhelming wave, turbulent and continuous, extremely lethal, those water demons were strangled and shattered the moment they were involved in the sword qi, it is really infinitely powerful." This is such a trick, for you at the moment, it should be very consuming of true qi. ”

Xu Daoyun smiled bitterly: "Brother Zhu is right, although the power and scope of this move are large, it consumes too much true qi, if there are not many enemies, it is really a bit overkill to use this move." ”

Zhu Bo said: "When your cultivation deepens in the future, the power of this move will definitely be multiplied several times, and it will not consume true qi so much." He shook his head and sighed, "Hey, Brother Daoyun is really talented, he has already stepped into the Qi Refining Realm at a young age. Unlike me, I have been stuck at the peak of the innate realm for two years, and I haven't seen any growth so far. ”

Xu Daoyun smiled, comforted a few words, and the two continued to get on the horse and hurry.

When I went up to the mountainside of Yushan Mountain, I could no longer see the daylight, and the sky suddenly darkened, and night fell.

The two dismounted and walked, Xu Daoyun's eyes were full of golden light, and he swept towards the bushes in the darkness all around, his expression was grim, and his luck was in the palm of his hand.

Bang la blah.

Suddenly, there was a rustle in the bushes to the west, and two black shadows jumped up the poplar trees, and then pounced on them.

Xu Daoyun's sword in his left hand commanded two white lights, killing the two monsters that looked like monkeys but had fangs on the spot, and the blood was sprinkled like raindrops, and a fishy smell came to the face, making people almost disgusting.

Xu Daoyun covered his mouth and nose, "I can't stand this smell, Brother Zhu, let's go faster." ”

"Good. Zhu Bo nodded in agreement, and he really couldn't bear it anymore.

Xu Daoyun asked, "Brother Zhu, can these water demons live in the water and survive on land for a long time?"

"No, these water demons are born in strange shapes, with gills on both sides of their cheeks and a bulging abdomen, which means that they can indeed survive in the water and on land at the same time. Of course, these water demons hide in the river all year round, and they must be more agile underwater than on land, but fortunately, we don't have to go into the water to fight them, otherwise it's really hard to say whether they will win or lose. ”

Xu Daoyunqi said: "For no reason, what are they doing when they come ashore to disturb the villagers? Wangsi River has not seen wind and waves for so many years, why is there a big flood at this season, causing water demons?"

Zhu Bo asked rhetorically, "What time is this season?" he thought to himself, although it was true that such a strange thing had not happened in previous years, could it be that this year was the year of great murder?

Xu Daoyun smiled vaguely, but he didn't answer, and said in his heart: "It's time for me to go down the mountain." ”

The two of them went down to Yushan overnight, and arrived at the west bank of the Wangsi River, where they found that a row of sharpened wooden stakes had been drilled along the land, stretching for an unknown number of miles, and behind the wooden stakes were placed to resist the water demons.

There is a sentry post behind the horse, looking at the old and new level, it should have just been erected, but there is no one stationed on it, I don't know why.

It seems that Nie Qingsheng and Zhixian led everyone to stalemate with the water demon for a long time, and they have begun to fight a strategic battle, and the tip of this platoon of rejection horses is extremely sharp, which can avoid the water demon army from attacking at night.

This is the biggest advantage of the water demon side, because they can come to the land at any time to sneak attack Nie Qingsheng and others, but Nie Qingsheng can't take people into the water to fight them, so he can only passively let go, even if he wins by luck, it is a miserable victory, far from being able to defeat the water demons.

That's why he sent back an urgent letter and ordered all the Yun Weisi who had completed the mission or returned from going out to come to help, just to prepare for a long war of attrition.

Looking west of the Sijiang River, there are small towns such as Anyan Town where there are imperial court institutions, and there are quite a lot of households, so food and materials are not a problem, but they have never been able to think of a plan to annihilate the water demon in one fell swoop.

Xu Daoyun and the others dismounted and bypassed the barricade and walked along Guanlu Avenue in the direction of Jiangdepo, where there was a faint flickering fire, which should be the stronghold of Nie Qingsheng and others.

After walking for a short time, they suddenly heard someone arguing in front of them, and the two of them quickened their pace and walked up, and saw from a distance that there were seven or eight unkempt men, women, and children who were driven away and scolded by two officials armed with spears.

"Two adults, my father has malaria, if I don't go to the doctor to get medicine, I'm afraid he won't last a few days, please be kind and let us go." ”

A fair-skinned, mud-stained girl knelt on the ground and pleaded, and a rudimentary wooden cart was parked beside her, on which lay a half-dead man, covered with straw, with pale lips and bloodless face, apparently half a foot in the door.

The two well-dressed servants were unmoved, and one of them raised his foot and kicked the woman to the ground, shouting: "Don't talk nonsense, I advise you to turn around and go back immediately, if you dare to make trouble again, be careful that your life is not guaranteed!"

Another official had an evil light in his eyes, stopped his companion beside him, and grinned: "Girl, it's not impossible to think about the past, it's just..."

The woman was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Just what?"

The obscene official looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "It depends on whether you can do it." ”

The woman stiffened, her cheeks, which were already bloodless, turned a little whiter, and she collapsed directly to the ground, feeling extremely desperate.

The two officials looked at each other and smiled, and the laughter became more and more rampant and harsh.

"How can it be!"

Xu Daoyun, who was in the distance, was furious, took off his Tuomu bow, and shot two arrows, which pierced the left knees of the two officials at the same time, and the two fell to the ground, holding the knee of the arrow and howling miserably.

The few refugees who were turned away were taken aback and looked back.

Xu Daoyun walked up quickly, looked at the two officials condescendingly, and asked in a cold voice: "Why are you blocking their way, and why are you bullying people, 1510 will make it clear, otherwise I will cut it first and then play." ”

The official who coveted the beauty of the filial girl saw that it was Qingqiwei who blamed him, and his arrogance immediately weakened, and he endured severe pain and said: "Huh... Lord Yu, it was the magistrate who ordered that people who came from the direction of the Wangsi River and were injured were not allowed to go. ”

Xu Daoyun asked, "Why?"

The official explained: "Because... Because the sharp teeth and sharp claws of the water demon are highly poisonous, they will corrode people's hearts, and eventually become monsters that are neither human nor ghost, so they are not allowed to pass. ”

Xu Daoyun frowned, he couldn't imagine that the water demon still had this threat, and then asked: "Her father has no external injuries, but he has suffered from wind and cold and malaria, why do you want to stop it?

The official trembled, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Adults forgive sins, adults forgive sins, the little ones are just confused for a while, please give me another chance, I won't dare to do it again." ”

"It's good if you admit it, I never kill innocents indiscriminately. ”

When the words fell, Xu Daoyun's left hand turned into a sword finger and waved, the white light flashed away, and the heads of the two officials broke off their necks and rolled to the ground.

Zhu Bo was puzzled: "Why did they kill both?"

Xu Daoyun said: "Aiding and abetting abuse should be the same crime." ”

Zhu Bo gave a thumbs up, "Be bold and brave, Brother Daoyun is amazing!"

The woman saw hope, fell to the ground and prostrated repeatedly, "Please let me go." ”

Xu Daoyun sighed and said: "It's wartime now, the herbs that cure diseases and save lives are in short supply, and the price must skyrocket, how much money do you have to catch medicine for your father, and how many times can you catch it?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then bit her lower lip and wept silently.

Xu Daoyun squatted down, groped for a while on the two officials, and finally found two money bags and threw them to the woman, saying: "This money is considered compensation for their offense against you, enough to give your father medicine to treat his illness, and then buy a house and a few acres of land." ”
