In the Zilin Hall not far from Stone Town, in a remote hut, the hall master Lin Hu was kneeling on the ground with his knees on the ground, kneeling in front of an old man in black with a cloudy face, without saying a word.

The old man in black picked up the wine glass and drank it all, his face full of anger.

Then he threw the wine glass on the ground and shouted angrily: "Lin Hu, you can't even do such a trivial matter, are you worthy of the hard work of those adults?"

Lin Hu's face was calm, and he said slowly: "That kid has a Seven Realms by his side..."

The old man didn't wait for Lin Hu to finish speaking, then he stepped forward and kicked Lin Hu hard with his leg. The man was suddenly forced, his body slid straight back, and then he slammed into the door with a 'bump', bowing his head and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The old man in black was even more angry, and kicked it again, and the door behind Lin Hu instantly protruded, and sawdust scattered everywhere, "Seven realms! Let them go to the wilderness, and wait for that kid to be alone before making a move? Do you know that because of this, His Royal Highness has already become suspicious of the old man? A group of rice buckets, raising you are really blind with those silvers!"

Lin Hu wiped the blood from his mouth and didn't say a word.

The old man in black took a deep breath, slowly suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "That thing is extremely important to His Highness, and there must be no more mistakes. This time, the old man personally took action and brought the woman surnamed Zhu with him, and you Zilin Hall sent fifty people to follow the old man. The old man doesn't believe it, a waste boy and a sword cultivator of the Seven Realms can still make a moth under the old man's hands!"

Lin Hu stood up, stood still, and then slowly whispered: "Master Ji, can I ask for some rewards for my brothers, buy some pill weapons or something, and I can do something for you." ”

The old man in black, who was called Ji Ye, didn't get angry when he heard this, but just sneered and sneered: "You dare to open your mouth to ask for money before you understand everything, you Lin Hu is really a cheeky licker and doesn't know how to be ashamed." But at this time, you still dare to open this mouth to the old man, and the old man really allowed you. ”

Ji Ye stretched out his hand, took out a purple cloud coin from his cuff, and threw it to Lin Hu on the opposite side.

"Why Zilintang can get to this point today, you know much better than the old man. Remember, dogs must look like dogs, if you are a white-eyed wolf and don't remember the good of your master, you will be beaten to death with a stick, don't blame the old man for not reminding you. ”

Lin Hu picked up the Purple Cloud Coin, looked lonely, and said slowly: "The little one understands." I also asked Ji Ye to tell His Highness that the little ones all know that His Highness is good to us, and they will not disappoint His Highness's hard work, and they will definitely work hard to satisfy His Highness. ”

The old man in black sat on the chair and waved his hand to Lin Hu, "Get out." Let the old man think about it alone, what else can be done by pointing at you waste, don't get in the way of the old man's eyes here. ”

Lin Hu clasped his fists and saluted deeply to the old man, then got up and walked slowly towards the outside of the house.

Liu Ying, who was waiting anxiously outside the house, saw that Lin Hu was dressed in disheveled clothes, and there was still blood left on the corner of his mouth walking towards him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Hall Master, are you okay?" ”

Lin Hu waved his hand, handed the Ziyun Coin in his hand to Liu Ying, and then said as he walked into the distance: "You go find fifty brothers and let them get ready to go with Ji Ye." This money .... With this money, I will buy some pills and weapons for my brothers. Then tell them to be smart, and try to come back alive...."

Liu Ying, who looked obscene and looked like a villain, looked at Lin Hu, who was a little staggering when walking, and sighed.

The livelihood of nearly five hundred people in the entire Zilin Hall was all on him.

How did he survive?

Just the tip of the iceberg that Liu Ying has known by following the hall master over the years is enough to move people.

In Liu Ying's heart, Lin Hu is a man who stands up to the sky, and he is a good hall master with a clear conscience.

————————

Ye Fan walked back, looking at the eight or nine young men gathered next to the fire, listening intently to the story of the big man with a huge scar on his face in the middle, he couldn't help but be curious, and stood aside and listened silently.

I only heard the scar man speak: "We come to the state in the south of Zilai, with a vast territory and a large population. In addition to the Dayan Dynasty, which had a fixed population of more than a billion people, there were also 600 million countries located here. Zilai Prefecture is full of spiritual energy, and there are countless famous mountains and rivers, and under various coincidences, some monsters and monsters have been able to cultivate their bodies and set foot on the road of cultivation, which is not so rare. ”

"Listening to the older generation, in some sparsely populated remote places, there are ghosts, monsters, monsters. In the deep mountains and wilderness, there are often female ghosts in white who are persecuted to death, and when the yin qi hits at night, they ask for people's lives everywhere. In the dilapidated ancient temple, there are often hidden bewitching fox demons, charming and resting here to this strong young man, sucking their yang energy and nourishing themselves. But don't be too afraid, if there are spirits that are perennial disasters to the world, you can inform the court or the immortal mansion, and when the time comes, there will be immortals to descend to kill demons and protect the safety of the people. ”

"In my opinion, with the level of cultivation of the black python yesterday, it is only a matter of time before it turns into a human form. Fortunately, Zhong Lao, Brother Li Jin, Senior Wei and Ye Fan Shaoxia came to the rescue, killed the giant python directly, and saved a few of us. Otherwise, if you really wait for that beast to cultivate into a human body, and the cultivation will skyrocket, hurting people and harming people will be even more like a fish in water, and the people in this vicinity who live on the Hengfu River will suffer a great disaster. ”

The words of the scar man were easy to understand, simple and funny, and the people around him were fascinated.

Ye Fan stood next to him and listened with relish, and the little girl and Li Qingfeng pricked up their ears and sat in the distance, not wanting to miss a word.

The man with the scar turned his neck, and inadvertently saw Ye Fan, and immediately got up and hugged his fists in admiration and said: "Ye Fan Shaoxia, Liu Dapeng thanked Shaoxia for saving his life." I didn't expect Shaoxia to have such a bearing at a young age, and he cooperated with Senior Wei to kill that beast with one sword, which really made our brothers admire. ”

The young man waved his hand and said shyly: "Brother Liu, you have won the award, I am the one who holds a knife." It's still Wei Cheng, it really doesn't have much to do with me. ”

Liu Dapeng shook his head, "Don't be modest, Shaoxia can hold a knife for Senior Wei, who can do it? ”

Ye Fan thought of a question, thought for a moment, and asked, "Brother Liu, why are these ghosts and monsters everywhere causing trouble to the world, but the immortals of the imperial court have never slaughtered and slaughtered on a large scale?"

The scar man opened his mouth and smiled: "This is because, once the spirit cultivates into a human form, it is actually not much different from a person in cultivation, and the imperial court and the immortal sect are happy to see it." And not all spirits do evil. The vast majority of demon beasts will cultivate honestly in accordance with the rules of the temple and the laws of the imperial court, and there are even those who have cultivated to a high level of demon cultivation or open a sect, or join the army to kill the enemy. They are physically strong and dare to fight hard, but whoever can survive will not be low in battle. Therefore, the soldiers of various countries did not reject the demon cultivators going to the battlefield, but got along with them very well. ”

After Ye Fan saw that the scarred man finished speaking, he hugged his fists and thanked him: "The kid thanked Brother Liu for solving his doubts, Brother Liu is really knowledgeable, and the kid admires it." ”

Liu Dapeng hurriedly replied: "Shaoxia, this is too polite." These things that will be known by casual inquiries are worthy of thanks. ”

"Brother Liu, don't call me a young man, the kid really can't afford it, just call me Ye Fan in the future." ”

"This...."

"Brother Liu doesn't even give this little face?"

Liu Dapeng nodded, "Then I might as well be respectful." Brother Ye Fan, if you want to help in the future, just call me Liu Dapeng, but if I frown, then I am not a man with a handle!"

Suddenly, there was a young man in the crowd who looked no more than in his early twenties, and asked the young man a question, "Brother Ye Fan, have you ever seen a real immortal make a move?" ”

Ye Fan turned around to look, nodded vigorously, and said gently: "Of course I have seen it, he is still a good friend of mine." That day, I saw with my own eyes that several bucket-thick heavenly thunderbolts were all slashed down by him with a single sword, and even the calamity clouds that occupied half of the sky were all slashed away by Brother Zhao with his sword qi. ”

A few sturdy young men around, seeing that Ye Fan, who showed his might that day, didn't have a fight at all, but was polite, and they all admired it, and they kept asking questions, and they soon got into a fight with the young man.

"Ye Fan, Ye Fan, don't all the immortals have a cold face, and they are very ruthless when they look at it?"

"Brother Ye Fan, can the immortal's flying sword become so big, and it can also ride the wind and travel extremely fast?"

"Brother Ye Fan, aren't the immortals very good-looking?"

The boy patiently answered all the questions he knew one by one.

Immortals don't all have cold faces, most of the time they are the same as us, don't believe you look at Zhong Lao and Wei Cheng.

The immortal's flying sword could indeed become so big, and the two of them sat on it and looked very spacious, and they flew into the sky with a swish.

I don't know about others, but my brother Zhao is really the best-looking of all the people I've ever seen.

.......

.......

Time passed slowly, and soon it was the next morning. After breakfast, the group slowly went north along the trail, and they could travel 70 miles a day.

Ye Fan actually admires Li Mingyue very much in his heart, but at the age of eight or nine, she can go so far with a group of adults, and she has not complained bitterly. So I love girls even more.

Ye Fan's back box had long been lost on the Hengfu River, which made the young man who was thrifty by nature feel distressed silently for a long time. But the good news is that the jade card can be used at will, and several copies of the geographical distribution atlas of the Red Leaf Country were prepared before the departure by Ye Fan in his hand and carefully checked.

According to the atlas, the group will soon walk to the border of Longquan County and climb a mountain range called Broken Water Mountain. The mountain road is not too long, but it is more than 100 miles. After climbing the Broken Water Mountain, it is only more than 500 miles away from Chongling Pass.

After a while, they walked to the foot of the mountain. Everyone rested at the foot of the mountain, Ye Fan leaned on a wooden pier, looked at the mountain, and muttered, "I hope there will be no more dangers." ”

At this time, a gust of wind and snow hit, and there were bursts of shouts, as if in response to the boy's words.
