Duan Mo successfully avoided 50,000 iron horsemen all the way along the Gobi Desert, passed through the border of layers of defense, and returned to the south. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After he revealed his identity, the Starfall general guarding the city on the southern border opened the city gate in a panic and let him in, the name of the son of Shang Sheng has recently resounded throughout Starfall, Taoguang has been obscure for sixteen years, once it rose, shocked the entire young generation of Starfall, and completely subverted the identity of the Gentleman.

With such strength, coupled with the huge force behind him, Duan Mo seemed to have become one of the most difficult people to mess with in Starfall, how dare the generals defending the city here hesitate, and hurriedly let Duan Mo enter the city, for fear that Duan Mo would have some accident with him.

The Celestial Firm is not a vegetarian.

After Duan Mo returned to the south, he bought a griffin beast again and hurried away, he sat on the griffin beast and looked down, the border was already full of wolf smoke, and Starfall had at least 100,000 iron horsemen stationed here to defend the city, which showed that the battle situation on the southern border was urgent, as for some of the cities around here have long been empty, it is very rare to see how many people in the city, most of them have fled to the center, and only many old women and children who can't walk are still in the city.

If the border is not defended, these people will inevitably be devastated by the war.

Duan Mo looked at the city below in silence, and the griffin beast chased the stars and the moon to the east.

Four days later, Duan Mo returned to Yuanmen.

The disciples of the Yuanmen are all cultivating quietly, and the eastern border is also being invaded by enemy countries, but the disciples in the sect are all calm and abnormal, and the group of disciples who want to protect their families and defend the country have already rushed out, and those who are still here naturally see the situation clearly and are calm.

Duan Mo went straight to the wooden house where he lived before, and he also met some disciples of the Yuanmen on the way, and after seeing him, his eyes were complicated, and he quickly gave way, and now Duan Mo is so popular, even beating Wei Ning and Mei Xin, and even comparable to the disciple who was once in their Yuanmen.

The peerless genius who had died on the top of Mount Tongten.

Duan Mo walked to an ordinary wooden house, there were many flowers and plants planted around the wooden house, flowers were dotted, and a scent of orchid came to his nose, which smelled extremely good, Duan Mo walked to the front of the wooden house and knocked on the door gently.

"Who?"

The voice as crisp as a yellow oriole sounded, followed by the footsteps of Titi Tata, the door slowly opened, and a beautiful and delicate face appeared under the sun, Duan Mo had a soft smile on the corner of his mouth, looked at this delicate face, and said with a smile: "Which one do you say?" ”

Lin Xuehan's eyes obviously flashed with joy, but she was quickly suppressed, she leaned against the door frame, glanced at Duan Mo behind her, and frowned slightly.

Duan Mo, who knew what she was thinking, smiled and said, "The Heavenly Wolf Heavenly Tiger has returned to the tribe, and it will take a few days to come back." ”

Lin Xuehan nodded slightly, stretched out his jade hand to pluck the leaves that fell on Duan Mo's shoulder, and said softly: "Is it okay to run all the way to the south?" ”

"Well, it's okay."

Duan Mo nodded lightly and said with a smile: "I'm going back to the north later, will you go?" ”

Lin Xuehan pondered for a moment and tapped the jade head: "I haven't had Xuanshui City for a while, I don't know how the Lin family is now." ”

"Last time, I said that I would accompany you to Xuanshui City to have a look, but it was delayed by the rat tide, so let's make up for it this time."

Duan Mo stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Lin Xuehan's hair, and the intimate action made Lin Xuehan's face blush slightly, and she was a little uncomfortable.

"I'll go to Yuanshan, come up to me when you pack your things."

Duan Mo let go of his hand and left immediately, Lin Xuehan bit her red lip slightly, and watched Duan Mo go away, her beautiful eyes flashed with light, she didn't know what to think again, her jade hand gently stroked her towering chest, and in the middle of the two delicate and soft, there was a million-dollar face protection bead, which shone slightly.

It was warm.

Duan Mo went straight up to the edge of the mountain, arrived at the top of the mountain, there was no one on the top of the mountain, he walked to the stone table on the side, there was a pot of tea on the table, there were still these dead leaves on the table, Duan Mo swept away the dead leaves with his arm, poured a cup of tea, and waited quietly.

A moment later, an old sweeping man with a broom in his hand walked up the stairs one step at a time, followed by an old beggar in ragged clothes and full of alcohol.

Duan Mo got up.

The old sweeper walked to the stone table, and immediately leaned the broom against the trunk of the tree beside him, and the old beggar fell to the ground with the smell of alcohol.

Duan Mo poured a cup of tea for the sweeping old man and said, "Skyhawk has declared war, I just came back from the south, and there are already 300,000 iron horsemen stationed there, with Starfall's current strength, it will last for half a year at most, or even less. ”

The old man who swept the floor just replied lightly.

"I also went around Mangshan, there are many secrets hidden there, and even about the five-clawed golden dragon, but my strength is too shallow, I don't dare to go down rashly, so I can only give up."

Duan Mo sat down and continued.

The old man who swept the floor took a sip of tea and said softly: "Mangshan is a strange land, it originally belonged to the realm of the dark forest, and later it was divided because of the changes in the vicissitudes of the sea, and the reason why the mountain can reach there is also because there is a passage that communicates with Mangshan on the dark forest, and it will only become more and more peaceful in the future, and those tribes will be driven out by powerful spirit beasts sooner or later." ”

Duan Mo flipped his palm, took out the black beads and three dark blue wooden blocks, put them on the table, and said slowly: "The three wooden blocks have been obtained, only the last one is left, I still don't have a clue, and this ......"

Duan Mo's storage ring moved, the black charcoal head was prostrate on the ground and drooped its ears, suddenly, it jumped up suddenly, looked at the sweeping old man, and then at the old beggar, and hurriedly shrank behind Duan Mo, with a look of fear.

The old man sweeping the floor glanced at the black beads and the dark blue wooden block, and immediately turned his attention to the black charcoal head, and said with some surprise: "What kind of spirit beast is this?" I've never seen one. ”

Duan Mo shook his head slightly: "I don't know, it should be related to the Hundred Beast Dao people, but it can make the Yu Du retreat, and it should be a big deal." ”

The old beggar who was sleeping on the ground opened his eyes slightly and glanced at the black charcoal head, who had hair all over his body and whimpered, hiding behind Duan Mo and not daring to come out.

The old beggar's voice was a little muffled: "Stay...... Keep it, it's okay! ”

Since the old beggar also said so, Duan Mo also let down his last bit of vigilance, he touched the head of the black charcoal head, and motioned for the latter to calm down.

The old man sweeping the floor picked up the black beads on the table, stroked the three dark blue wooden blocks with his dry fingers, closed his eyes slightly, and was silent for a long time before he opened his eyes, glanced at the old beggar with gorgeous hair on the ground, and said lightly: "Come to me after you find the last piece, and I will accompany you to the devil's grave." ”

The old beggar's lips on the ground seemed to squirm, and he wanted to say something, but the old man sweeping the floor couldn't help but say directly: "If you do it again, this life will be gone!" ”

The old beggar fell silent, turned over, and grunted with bad wine.

"Thank you, Elder."

Duan Mo bent down and saluted, his voice full of gratitude.

With the giants with him, no matter how terrifying the devil's tomb is, I'm afraid it won't be able to make Duan Mo much afraid.

This time, he is bound to rescue Li Xuanhan.

"Old beggar, I'm going back to the north for a while, will you go back with me or stay here?"

Duan Mo looked at the old beggar and asked out loud.

The old beggar said vaguely: "Stay...... Stay here ......"

Duan Mo nodded, immediately got up, and saluted the giant and the old beggar again.

"When the Spirit Infant Realm is ninefold, come back...... Find me! ”

The old beggar's voice sounded again, Duan Mo was stunned, is the spirit infant realm ninefold? I don't know how long it will take to reach the Spirit Infant Realm Ninefold, it is too early to mention this matter, but Duan Mo still responded.

A girl in purple had slowly opened up the stairs and saluted the old beggar and the giant Yingying.

"Let's go."

Duan Mo whistled, a griffin beast came quickly, Duan Mo took Lin Xuehan to jump on the griffin beast, quickly left, and rushed to the north, it was another boring long-distance trip.

The old man sipped his tea, and the old beggar slowly got up from the ground, propped himself up and sat on the stool, picked up the teapot in front of him and poured it down with the mouth of the pot.

"This is my tea, not your wine."

The old man sweeping the floor snatched back the teapot and shook his head helplessly.

The old beggar who poured a lot of tea seemed to be much more sober, and a pair of calm eyes appeared under his dirty white hair, staring at the old man sweeping the floor, and said softly: "You have drunk tea all your life, but you have never been able to understand a word." ”

The old man who swept the floor said calmly: "I have indeed drunk tea for a lifetime, so I have learned the sky, the earth, and the avenue, and achieved the current cultivation, why can't I understand a word?" ”

The old beggar sneered: "What about the heart? Have you come to your senses? ”

The old man sweeping the floor was silent.

"If you don't dare to understand the heart, how can you understand the word?"

The ragged old beggar picked up the lacquered porcelain bowl in front of him and drank the tea in one gulp.

The old beggar got up slowly and said: "Realize your heart once, understand your own heart, let go of everything, it's all over, your future is limitless, break free from the shackles of this far north region, your road is brilliant." ”

Huo Ran, the old man sweeping the floor, looked at the old beggar and roared, "What about you? Why don't you dare to understand your heart, why don't you let go? Do you have to live in such a mess? ”

"Me?"

The old beggar pointed to himself, his body shook a little, and a piercing laugh spread: "I'm a waste person who won't live long, and I can't even step into the giants, what's the use of enlightenment?" ”

The old beggar looked at the endless land in front of him, and his voice became much softer: "The obsession is deep, and I can't let go of it for a long time." ”

The old man who swept the floor sighed deeply.

The old beggar jumped down, his body facing up, lying flat and falling, the wind whistling in his ears, he quietly closed his eyes, and the scenes of the past appeared and disappeared like flowers.

Drunk and bones-eroding, he will see through half his life.

The old man sweeping the floor was silent for a long time, he looked at the position where the old beggar had just done, there was a line of small words of tea next to the tea bowl, and the old man was silent after reading it, and looked in the direction of the south.

This world is in me, and I will hunt and guard with you in the coming day!

The old beggar in the fall muttered softly: "I still owe you one thing in the end, this empire, I will guard it for you for the last year, and from then on, you and I will have nothing to do with it." ”

The white sword pierced the sky, falling like thunder, and suddenly picked up the old beggar in the fall, and crossed the sea of clouds, like a white light across the sky, disappearing.

Imperial capital.

In the Houshan Cemetery of Daming Palace, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe stood in front of the tomb of Huangfu Spring, staring at the tombstone in front of him.

An old beggar in rags suddenly appeared behind him, the guards around him were stunned for a moment, then their faces changed greatly, and they rushed up suddenly, a rainbow light stopped in an instant, and the great eunuch Sun Zhong looked at the old beggar in front of him angrily, what's going on?

How did this old beggar come about?

"Stand down!"

The man in the dragon robe snorted, Sun Zhong and the guards around him hesitated, and then slowly retreated, Huangfu Xingshan turned to look at the ragged old beggar, was silent for a moment, and saluted: "Uncle Bai." “

The old beggar didn't even look at him, stared at the tombstone of Huangfu Spring, and said after a while: "I owe you everything I owe." ”

The surroundings were silent, except for Huangfu Spring, even the great eunuch Sun Zhong was a little numb at the moment, he lowered his head and did not dare to raise it, he could feel that there seemed to be an extremely powerful sharp sword intent around him, which was extremely terrifying, and could easily tear his body.

All they heard was the old beggar in rags who said, "Give them thirty thousand iron horsemen." ”

Huangfu Xingshan hummed softly, only Huangfu Xingshan knew what it meant.

The old beggar took one last look at Huangfu Xingshan and said indifferently: "Waste, the king of the dead country." ”

Huangfu Xingshan showed no signs of anger at all, his face was calm and did not make any waves, the old beggar disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the sharp sword intent finally disappeared.

Everyone's backs were soaked in cold sweat, and everyone didn't dare to gasp.

A desolate and mysterious place, with thousands of horsemen charging and fighting each other, although it was a drill, but the degree of fighting was no less than actual combat, and there were many elderly people lying in the distance and watching.

A white light suddenly fell to the ground, turning into a long sword with a sword body that flashed like light, and those elderly people were so excited that they rushed out at once, knelt on one knee, and roared in unison: "See the general!" ”

The old beggar stood in mid-air, looked at these old men below, and said slowly: "The border is guarded for a year, and after a year, the prosperity and decline have nothing to do with it." ”

The old men below shouted in unison.

The white mangsword disappeared in an instant, and the white light left.

The next day, one by one, it was rumored that the veterans of a hundred battles who were in seclusion or died in battle appeared on the battlefield, strategizing to consolidate the two borders in the southeast, and the war was in full swing, falling into a state of stalemate, and a tug-of-war that lasted for a long time began.

The pace of invasion of the Three Kingdoms was blocked, and the people of Starfall cheered abnormally, but no one knew that this was only a year of stability.

Another four days.

Duan Mo finally returned to the north and returned to Black Ink City.

The people of Black Ink City saw that Duan Mo's gaze had changed, and they no longer had the ridicule and disdain of the past, and they quickly walked past Duan Mo with their heads lowered, and very few people looked at Duan Mo, and their eyes were full of admiration and envy.

This gentleman has turned over.

After Duan Mo returned home, he didn't find any trace of Duan Tian, the house was deserted, and the spring flowers and spring grass were still in the Flowing Fire City and had not been picked up, Duan Mo walked out of the house after a casual swing.

"Let's go, let's go to Xuanshui City first."

Duan Mo took Lin Xuehan and rushed to Xuanshui City not far away.

Xuanshui City is close to Black Ink City, so it is also extremely rich and powerful, and the city is also under the control of the Heavenly Firm, all the industries in the city are dependent on the development of the Celestial Firm, and the most prosperous area in the city is sold at the price of every inch of land.

"Lin Mansion."

Duan Mo looked at the mansion in front of him, smiled faintly, Lin Xuehan was also happy, and couldn't wait to push open the door, and the two walked in.

There were no guards guarding the door in the mansion, and the two walked all the way in, until they reached the hall, but they didn't see anyone.

"Why isn't there any?"

Duan Mo frowned, and Lin Xuehan was also slightly stunned.

"I guess it's in the backyard, there is no principal in the family now, and my sister is barely holding on, the clansmen should all rest in the backyard, and there are not many people coming over in the hall."

Lin Xuehan said as she took Duan Mo to the backyard, and sure enough, she saw a few children playing in the backyard.

"Sister Xuehan!"

A little girl closest to them suddenly found Lin Xuehan and screamed in surprise, and a group of children around them suddenly gathered around, chattering non-stop.

"Okay, okay, don't scream, where's your father?"

Lin Xuehan squatted down, hugged the little girl in front of her, and asked the children beside her.

The little girl pointed outside and said loudly, "Dad and those uncles and uncles have gone out to mine, and my mother and aunts have gone to cook and help." ”

The children around were all nodding.

"Mining?"

Duan Mo on the side was slightly stunned.

Lin Xuehan reacted and explained: "I remember, my sister mentioned this matter a long time ago, she was thinking about using the family's remaining savings to buy a mineral vein, and then organize the clansmen to mine and sell it for money, so that she would not have to leave here too far and improve her life." ”

Duan Mo nodded slightly and said, "Well, this is also a good way." ”

Because of its proximity to the dark forest in the north, there are many extended ore veins underground, and many ores can refine spiritual power, which is of great benefit to cultivators, so it is very valuable, and it is a scarce and sought-after item, but because it is too troublesome to excavate, the price has been raised a lot.

Duan Mo and Lin Xuehan were here to play with these children for a while, seeing that it was almost dark, and the Lin family still didn't come back, Lin Xuehan glanced at Duan Mo, bit her red lip and said, "If you have something to do, go get busy first, it's okay." ”

Duan Mo glanced at the already dark sky, and said helplessly: "It's dark, you drive me away?" Could it be that there is no place for me to live in such a large yard? ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

Seeing that Duan Mo had a tendency to stay, Lin Xuehan felt a little inexplicably excited in his heart, and hurriedly said.

Duan Mo smiled faintly, and his meaningful gaze swept over her, causing the latter to blush slightly, and glared at him: "What are you doing?" ”

"Nothing."

Duan Mo smiled, and a touch of contempt appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Actually, I originally planned to reluctantly squeeze a room with you if I didn't have a room to live in." ”

Lin Xuehan's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she said angrily: "Shameless!" Rogue! ”

Duan Mo laughed, got up and stopped teasing this very thin-skinned little girl, he stretched his waist, casually glanced outside, his complexion suddenly changed, and his body stiffened suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing this, Lin Xuehan hurriedly stood up.

"It smells of blood."

Duan Mo frowned slightly, and the next moment, several figures hurriedly ran in, carrying three stretchers, and on the stretchers lay three men covered in blood, and blood was dripping down.

"Let the kids go back to the house."

Duan Mo glanced at the three people on the bloody stretchers, and said to Lin Xuehan, who was in a miserable mood behind him, who hurriedly took the children who were also frightened and walked towards the house.

"Hurry, hurry! Carry everyone into the house! ”

A gentle woman in yellow clothes ran in outside the door, leading a few doctors in white coats to run in quickly, and hurriedly said.

"What's wrong?"

Duan Mo walked over, looked at Lin Xuezi and said softly.

"Young Master Duan."

Lin Xuezi was obviously startled, obviously she didn't expect Duan Mo to be here, the next moment she reacted, looking at the purple-clothed girl who ran over, she didn't care about the old days, and hurriedly said: "There was an accident behind the mining, these three clansmen were seriously injured, and they had to be treated quickly." ”

Several people entered the house, and the two doctors were checking the injuries of the three Lin family members who were dying on the stretcher, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

"Sister, how can this be?"

Lin Xuezi frowned tightly and hurriedly asked.

A middle-aged man on the side was covered in dust and sighed: "When I was mining, the front suddenly collapsed, and Lao Liang and the three of them were buried, and this was the case after we rescued them." ”

"Fourth uncle, how can you let the clansmen go down to the mine with this vein that is in danger of landslide!"

Lin Xuezi said anxiously.

The middle-aged man also spread his hands and said: "We don't know, this mine has been mined by someone, and there has never been a danger of collapse, this is the first time." ”

After the two doctors checked it, they all shook their heads powerlessly, the three of them had been smashed into this picture, where could they still be saved.

Lin Xuezi's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and the rest of the Lin family scolded in a low voice, extremely remorseful.

"Someone has already mined it?"

Duan Mo raised his eyebrows, he suddenly walked to the person in front of him, lifted the white cloth on it, looked at the man whose flesh and blood were blurred, and even his intestines could be seen, his eyes slowly swept over, and suddenly, his complexion changed slightly.

"Give me the knife!"

Duan Mo snorted at the doctor beside him, who didn't know why, but still handed the scalpel in his hand to Duan Mo.

"Young Master Duan, you ......"

The middle-aged man and the others were stunned and hurriedly asked.

"Sneer......"

The dagger in Duan Mo's hand slashed at the man's bloody stomach, and the tattered flesh that had been turned out was cut off a lot, and a large piece of flesh fell off.

"It's ......"

Duan Mo looked at the flesh and blood in the depths, there was a shallow claw mark on it, and the flesh and blood here had been smashed by stones, so if he didn't cut off those rotten flesh, he couldn't tell that this was a claw mark at all.

Duan Mo walked towards another man who had already lost his breath, and did the same, and not long after, he found a claw mark on the back of the bloody flesh and blood.

The faces of the Lin family sisters began to change, and the rest of the people also widened their eyes.

Duan Mo walked towards the last person, the last person's chest was still slightly undulating, dying, but he was also close to the edge of death, and his face was also a blur of flesh and blood, but Duan Mo found that his lips were still squirming slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

Duan Mo was silent for a moment, his fingers flicked, and a stream of spiritual power entered his meridians, with his current physical condition, the meridians in his body had already been in a mess, Duan Mo forcibly opened up a running track, and after a week, the corners of the man's mouth continued to overflow with blood, but he recovered a little strength.

"Yes...... There are ...... mines"

The man's voice was extremely vague and intermittent, his fingers slid slightly on the cloth beside him with difficulty, and the next moment, his head tilted, a muffled sound came out of his body, and he lost his breath, Duan Mo forcibly gave him the meridian spiritual power that he had been running for a week, giving him a little strength to speak for the last time, and it also made his body overwhelmed and collapsed.

"Got mines?"

The middle-aged man frowned deeply, of course there were mines in the veins.

"Is it possible...... Did they find another ore? ”

A person said suspiciously, the middle-aged man's eyes widened, it is not impossible for two ores to appear in one vein, if so, the price of this vein will be doubled.

"No...... No, he hasn't finished his sentence, it's not a mine. ”

Duan Mo shook his head and looked at the man's last twisted blood word, which was too vague to see what it was.

Duan Mo leaned on the pillar behind him and frowned, "Someone mined your vein when it was bought?" ”

Lin Xuezi nodded, and said softly: "I went to buy it, this vein has indeed been mined, and because the family wants to move out of the north, all of them will be sold at a low price." ”

"Sell ...... at a low price"

Duan Mo's eyes froze: "The ore vein is a rare commodity, how can it be sold at a low price?" ”

Duan Mo frowned tightly.

"How long have you been buying this mine? Where"

Duan Mo continued to ask.

Lin Xuezi replied softly: "I just bought it three days ago, and I went to clean up the mine yesterday, and today is the first day to start work, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, where is the ore vein in Xishan outside the city." ”

"The first day of work...... Moved...... Sold at a low price. ”

Duan Mo touched his chin, and suddenly his face changed.

Duan Mo Huo Ran turned around, looked at the only man in the middle whose face was still slightly intact, took a big step over, stretched out his eyes, and a pair of pupils that had contracted to the extreme appeared in front of Duan Mo, which would only appear under extreme fear.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xuehan walked to Duan Mo's side and asked in a low voice.

Duan Mo's fingers gently stroked the claw marks on their chests, and then looked at the three people who had lost their breath and their flesh and blood were blurred, and looked at the middle-aged man: "You heard the sound of the collapse and ran in, and you saw that they were buried underneath, right?" ”

The middle-aged man groaned for a moment and nodded: "Lao Liang and the three of them are digging in front to open the way, and a group of us are behind fifty or sixty meters behind to check whether there is any undug ore around, but there is a sound of collapse in front, and we ran over to see that the three of them have been buried under the stones." ”

Duan Mo took a deep breath and looked at the twisting blood word, he finally knew what this word was.

"It's not that there's a mine underneath, it's that there's a ...... below"

Duan Mo's eyes swept around him, and he sighed lightly: "There are mine ghosts ...... below."
