Chapter 5 Strange Men on the Road

"Suzhou, ten thousand flowers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The ability to learn, I will destroy his mountain god, and there is an indestructible ancestor. A young man-like figure muttered in his mouth, and shook the two packages he was carrying, one was full of patches, and the other was a package made of red cloth with a little oil stains, and the young man was Li Tianqi.

The road in the mountains is usually difficult to walk, not to mention that in extraordinary times, in order to reduce the risk of being caught, the alert teenager did not dare to take the avenue, but chose to take the path, the path is rarely walked, so it has been hidden in dense weeds for many years.

He walked for a long time, and only walked two miles, and at this time he had seen the sun set in the west, and if he did not hurry to hurry, and when it was dark, he had heard the roars and strange cries of all kinds of wild beasts in the distance, which made the hearts of those who passed by tremble.

Li Tianqi ran around for most of the day, but he didn't drink a sip of water, he felt extremely thirsty, and his heart moved, but he suddenly heard the sound of bubbling water from his side.

"Qingshui River!" Li Tianqi was a little excited.

The Qingshui River is actually just a small river, less than a zhang wide, but the river water is crystal clear, hence the name, the small river is not wide but very deep, and the water is abundant. At this time, it belongs to the cold winter season, the river is located in the south, although it is not frozen, the river water is extremely cold, the river surface is even more foggy at this time, only the sound of the river is heard, and the river is not visible.

Li Tianqi couldn't take care of it anymore, he ran over, if he hadn't tripped over the weeds and just fell to the river, his reckless act would have fallen into the river.

Lying on the river, pouring several mouthfuls of river water in a row, and drinking bitterly, Li Tianqi felt the biting coolness of the river in this season.

Suddenly, I smelled the aroma of wine, and my heart moved, where did the wine come from in this deep mountain? Li Tianqi felt a sense of foreboding in his heart, and began to become alert, looking around with wide eyes.

"Good wine." Suddenly, a person's voice came from beside him, which surprised Li Tianqi.

A few feet away from him sat a man, a strange man, a man with a hat and unclothed clothes.

The man's two strands of hair hanging down from the shoulders were slightly gray, and the hat was worn so low that it was impossible to see his face, and the man was holding a gourd mixed with golden wine, apparently sitting under a pine tree and drinking, and the most eye-catching thing was a long stick-shaped object pinned to his back, all of which were tightly wrapped in beautiful purple satin, and I don't know what was hidden inside, but the gorgeous color was incompatible with the man's dejected dress.

In the barren mountains and mountains, there are actually people drinking here, which is also strange.

Could it be that the mountain god has changed? Li Tianqi's thoughts flickered, and he couldn't help but be nervous, and he was already optimistic about the direction of escape.

The man in the hat didn't speak again, there was a quiet breath between the two, and only the sound of turbulence was heard, which made Li Tianqi's heart furious.

Li Tianqi gradually recalled the hideous face last night, and thought that he was burdened with blood feuds, so he seized the opportunity to run away, but he just drank a lot of water, but he couldn't run.

After running a few steps, I realized that the man in the hat did not get up and chase after him. Li Tianqi turned back again.

"Are you a mountain god?" Li Tianqi shouted at the man, for his own courage and to discourage the other party, but the man in the hat didn't pay attention to him, but he drank by himself, and the bottom of the huge gourd was facing Li Tianqi, as if he was laughing at the young man's timidity.

"Are you a human or a demon?"

The man in the hat still ignored Li Tianqi, and continued to drink by himself, the huge gourd still blocked his face, Li Tianqi couldn't see this person's face at all, this situation was very strange, but seeing that nothing happened, he was sure that he had no malicious intentions, and Li Tianqi felt a lot more at ease.

In the past half of the day, Li Tianqi has not met anyone else, and he has been walking in the barren mountains and mountains for a long time, and the hanging heart is put down, which is a very comfortable and relaxed feeling.

Li Tianqi is loyal and kind by nature, and at the moment he saw that this person was not malicious, and sat in the cold wind in rags, although he didn't know his age, the hair hanging down his shoulders was gray, he must also be a person who had experienced vicissitudes, and he couldn't help but feel compassion, remembering that there were some roast chickens and ducks and other foods in the red cloth bag he carried, so he immediately put it on the ground, opened the package, and took out half a roast chicken, maybe it was put in the package for a long time, and the moment he opened the package, Li Tianqi smelled some rancid smell, he was a little embarrassed, As he spoke, he handed it to the man in the hat: "Roast chicken, for you, although it is a little rancid, it is still good." ”

The man in the hat finally reacted, but he didn't raise his head, he suddenly stretched out his dark hand, grabbed the roast chicken in Li Tianqi's hand, unceremoniously tore it up, and swallowed a big mouthful of chicken, the hungry tiger-like action made Li Tianqi swallow his saliva as well, but he understood that the mountain road did not know where it leads, and it may be very long, and he didn't want to eat some food until he had to do it or was hungry.

The man in the hat was concentrating on eating roast chicken, but he didn't seem to know that Li Tianqi was looking at him carefully.

Although he couldn't see the face of the man in the hat at this time, Li Tianqi still noticed that although the skin on the man's hand was dark, it was very healthy and not wrinkled, so although there was a sense of vicissitudes, he should be a young man.

Why don't you always let people see your face?

Li Tianqi wanted to get closer, but he was blocked by an invisible force and could no longer move forward. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Li Tianqi didn't want to delay here for a long time, so he said goodbye.

"This senior, there is a mountain god in the mountain, and he eats human flesh, so it's best to leave here before the night arrives, Xiaosheng has said goodbye." Li Tianqi said.

The man in the hat nodded, his mouth was full of oil, and he raised the gourd and poured a lot of yellow soup.

Li Tianqi bowed to the man with a hat, "I'm leaving." ”

The man in the hat raised the chicken leg in his hand as if to thank him for his kindness.

It was already some distance away from the Qingshui River, Li Tianqi looked back, and the man with the hat was vaguely sitting under the tree and continued to drink, gradually shrouded in fog.

Just when Li Tianqi left and the fog was getting thicker, the man with the hat suddenly brightened his eyes, swallowed the last bite of chicken, and looked at the two hands that were gradually raised, and his hands showed a black gas, which felt a strange feeling. He turned his head to look in Li Tianqi's direction, thoughtful. Suddenly, he quickly grabbed the gourd in his hand, poured another sip of old wine, and suddenly disappeared in the mist.

Li Tianqi ran out of breath, looking at the ray of sunshine that was about to disappear into the distant mountains, and felt inexplicably desolate in his heart.

"Trembling......" There was a sound in the dense grass beside Li Tianqi, and a fierce tiger with green eyes jumped out, bringing out a fishy wind.

Li Tianqi's eyes were quick, and he bent down and picked up two stones.

The tiger roared, jumped high, and pounced on Li Tianqi. Li Tianqi squatted down, stepped forward, dodged the beast's attack, and then turned around and raised the stone in his hand and smashed it into the back of the tiger.

There was a muffled sound of "poof", and the tiger was in pain, turned his head and waved his tiger claws with his huge mouth and pounced on Li Tianqi again.

Li Tianqi threw down the two packages, dodged sideways, and suddenly felt that his arm was hot, as if he had been scratched by a tiger's claws.

When the tiger smelled the smell of blood, he was even more energetic, and a terrifying low roar came out of his throat, and the hair on his body stood up even more, and his four claws slightly exerted force on the gravel ground, as if he wanted to pounce on the person in front of him with the last blow.

Li Tianqi's heart was full of struggling business thoughts at the moment, because he still had to live and take revenge. But in the face of such a giant beast, he is a teenager, without any cultivation ability, obviously far from being an opponent, just consuming physical strength, it can't support it for long.

The tiger wouldn't give him a chance to breathe, roared, and pounced on Li Tianqi.

Li Tianqi shook the stone in his hand with all his strength, smashed it hard, and smashed it on the tiger's teeth with a bang, the tiger's head only swung slightly, and the two thick tiger claws stretched out under the huge momentum of the tiger still threw Li Tianqi to the ground.

The tiger approached Li Tianqi, stretched out his tongue and licked Li Tianqi's face, and he felt another tingling sensation. The tiger exhaled hot air and stared at Li Tianqi with both eyes, as if he was still examining the prey under his feet.

Li Tianqi beat the tiger body indiscriminately with his hands and feet, but it had no effect.

The tiger suddenly showed its sharp teeth and bit Li Tianqi's neck.

When it was too late, the huge tiger snorted, and suddenly flew several feet away from its side and fell to the ground.

As soon as Li Tianqi wanted to see what was going on, he felt something sticky fall from the sky, he wiped the thing that fell on his face with his hand, and a strong smell of blood went straight to his nose. I think it was the tiger blood that spurted out of the tiger's mouth when it flew up.

What's going on? Li Tianqi hurriedly got up, looked at the tiger lying motionless on the ground, and slapped the dust on his body with both hands. At that moment, he suddenly felt that there was already a person standing behind him, a man wearing a hat.

The man in the hat stood a foot away from him, did not look at him or speak, but just stood there, like a stake.

Li Tianqi vaguely recognized the man's outfit, which was the man with a hat on the edge of the Qingshui River.

"Senpai!" Li Tianqi bowed and saluted: "Thank you for your help." ”

"Let's go." The man in the hat spoke, but only one word was spoken.

"Senpai." Li Tianqi thought of his family feud and thought of his apprenticeship, and suddenly knelt down, "Please accept me as an apprentice, right?" ”

Suddenly, Li Tianqi felt that there was a wall of qi on the man in front of him, and it was getting stronger and stronger. When he didn't know what to do, a force forced him to bounce several feet away and fall on top of the tiger. The tiger suddenly opened his eyes, ignoring the two of them, and staggered into the thick grass with a low roar.

"Quick! Run! The man in the hat said another word, and his voice was a little muffled.

He was no longer allowed to think about it, and Li Tianqi ran quickly. As soon as he ran a few steps forward, the figure in front of him flashed, and the man in the hat was already in front of him, Li Tianqi couldn't react at all, he was controlled by a huge force, and at this time, he could clearly see the man in front of him stretching out his right palm to face him.

The force wrapped around his whole body, as if he was squeezing in, and his bones creaked.

At this time, Li Tianqi felt that his feet had left the ground, hanging in the air and being squeezed by an invisible force, almost breathless.

Just when Li Tianqi felt that he was about to vomit blood, the power that enveloped him suddenly disappeared, and he fell down, panting.

"Run!" The man in the hat bit open the lid of the gourd and poured some old wine into his mouth.

Li Tianqi, who fell to the ground, saw the dropped package, didn't have time to think about it, grabbed one and ran, never looking back.

The man in the hat looked at Li Tianqi's departing back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
