The flames burst into the sky, and the trees in the forest collapsed one by one, and the fire that spread in all directions no longer spread out in a circle, but a huge gap appeared.

If you look down from the sky, you can see that the fire is spreading like a huge fireball, but as the fire spreads, a gap suddenly appears on one side, but the fire on this side does not continue to spread.

Zhao Zilong was sweating like water, his vision was already blurred by sweat, he kept cutting down trees, and as the big trees fell, the fire on that side stopped spreading.

Like a tireless machine, Zhao Zilong kept chopping trees and constantly stopping the spread of the fire, but he was always only one person, and his manpower was limited, no matter how strong the true qi in his body was, he could not stop the spread of the entire fire.

It's just that if you stand high in the sky and look at it, you will be surprised to find that the gap in the huge fire circle is getting bigger and bigger......

In the darkness, on top of a big tree, an off-white figure swayed gently under the firelight, like a fairy man, swaying lightly with the wind.

This person was the man who was far away from here before, and I saw him silently looking at Zhao Zilong, who was constantly chopping trees a hundred meters away, and his eyes fell on the short knife that emitted cyan light, and his eyes became extremely hot.

However, with the help of the firelight, this person looked at Zhao Zilong who was constantly wielding a short knife from a distance and was silent, and when Zhao Zilong occasionally raised his head and the fire shone on the handsome and resolute face, the expression on the man's face became extremely strange.

After watching silently for a long time, seeing that Zhao Zilong seemed to have the momentum of never leaving without extinguishing the fire, the man took out a white handkerchief from his arms, covered his face, and then jumped down and came to Zhao Zilong's side not far away.

Zhao Zilong numbly kept chopping trees, and after a while, he realized that the situation seemed to be wrong, and hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see that in the midst of the raging fire, a man in a gray-white robe danced a long sword and kept chopping trees like himself, constantly preventing the spread of the fire, and his heart couldn't help but be surprised, when did this person appear?

And in this wilderness, how could there suddenly be one more person?

What surprised Zhao Zilong the most was that this person swung his sword like the wind, and there was only a soft small sword in his hand, but the sword was incomparably sharp in his hand, and even a big tree as thick as a person hugging him could be broken by his sword, and the depth of his skill was really staggering.

Zhao Zilong's surprise is not trivial, not to mention that he has entered the innate realm half a day ago, let's just say that before setting foot in the innate realm, he boasted that his cultivation was good, and it was impossible for ordinary people to get close to him.

However, now, he doesn't know how this sword-wielding man appeared, and seeing this person's sword like the wind, calm and relaxed, he can see that this person's cultivation realm is very terrifying, and he is definitely not below him.

Although he was surprised in his heart, Zhao Zilong saw that this person was concentrating on cutting down the tree, so he didn't say much immediately, suppressed the surprise in his heart and began to run to the other side, acting separately with the person, constantly cutting down the tree, trying to extinguish the spreading fire in the most direct and barbaric way.

Fortunately, the fire is spreading from the top of the mountain to the surrounding areas, if it is from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the fire will float upward, and the speed of spread will be much faster, now the fire is spreading from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, the speed is naturally much slower. Coupled with Zhao Zi's timely arrival, the fire did not completely disperse, and now Zhao Zilong frantically chopped down the tree to prevent the spread of a fire, and with the addition of this mysterious man, the two strange people actually tried their best to block the fire with what they had learned in their lives.

Manpower cannot defeat the sky, but once someone insists, once he does not hesitate to fight against the forces of nature, even if it is difficult and difficult, he can fight with the sky!

Two hours later, Zhao Zilong sat on the ground panting like a cow, only to feel that the whole person was about to collapse.

At this time, the fire had been completely stopped, and a huge oval black circle appeared around the peak, the black place was the traces of the fire, and the green mountains below were verdant, and there was no fire.

All the trees that were cut down fell in the direction of the top of the mountain, and some small trees and weeds around were also chopped up by Zhao Zilong and the man, plus the fire was already pointing upward, and it was difficult to spread downward, so he was charged.

Not far away, the man in the gray-and-white robe also sat quietly on the woodland beside him, although he was later, but in fact he walked around the huge oval far more than Zhao Zilong. In other words, although this person made a later move, he killed more trees than Zhao Zilong!

After resting for a moment, the man in the gray and white robe stood up and slowly walked towards Zhao Zilong, his eyes falling on Zhao Zilong's face for a long time without taking away.

Zhao Zilong felt that this person was approaching, and the exercises in his body were running silently, recovering a lot of true qi a little, and he also stood up, with a hint of vigilance in his heart, and looked at this person: "I don't know who the predecessor is, under Zhao Zilong!" ”

"Zhao Zilong?"

The man was still covered and spotless, not even the handkerchief with his face covered was contaminated by fire or black carbon. After listening to Zhao Zilong's self-reported name, he followed the chatter, nodded, and said, "Good name." ”

Zhao Zilong saw that this person was covered with his face, although he felt that he should be a compassionate person to fight the fire with him, but he still felt a little weird.

If you are an upright person, why are you afraid to show your true face?

The man's gaze fell on the short knife in Zhao Zilong's hand, and he said, "Where did the short knife in your hand come from?" ”

Zhao Zilong's expression was stunned when he heard this, thinking that this knife was obtained from the ancestral hall of Miao Village, and he still had too many things to understand, and was about to ask the priest and Mai Yinong and others about the truth, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

An inexplicable hatred welled up in his heart, and Zhao Zilong said in a deep voice: "This knife was given by the people of Miao Village, I didn't expect that as soon as I turned around and left, the people of the entire village would be slaughtered cleanly." I, Zhao Zilong, swear to heaven that if I can find this person in this life, I will kill him to avenge the people of the entire village. ”

The masked man raised his eyebrows, stared at Zhao Zilong tightly with a pair of eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know who did this?" ”

Zhao Zilong shook his head slowly, suddenly his heart moved, looked up at the man, and asked sincerely: "Dare to ask the seniors who can see the murderer?" ”

The masked man suddenly shook his head and said: "I was practicing not far away, and suddenly I saw a raging fire here, and when I arrived here, you were already cutting down trees to put out the fire, and I joined in, and you didn't see who the murderer was, how could I find out?" ”

Zhao Zilong thought about it, he hadn't seen the murderer for a long time, let alone this person?

However, although Zhao Zilong is young, he has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he still has some doubts in his heart. This man was able to appear quietly beside him without being discovered, and the ghost knew if he came later or earlier than himself.

But Zhao Zilong also understands that if this person wants to kill himself, it is not difficult to kill him, and he can accompany him to fight the fire, which also shows that he is kind and upright, and he can't doubt others casually.

The masked man glanced at the short knife in Zhao Zilong's hand a few times, and couldn't help but speak: "This knife is weird and extraordinary, and it should not be shown lightly in the future, so as not to attract death." ”

Zhao Zilong was shocked when he heard this, and looked up at the masked man: "Seniors know this knife? ”

The masked man carried his hands behind his back, nodded and said: "This is a Miao knife, one and a half feet long, seven centimeters wide, it is cast from a meteorite left on the mainland in ancient times, also known as the green knife, it is rumored to be forged by Chi You, the leader of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, and it is a divine weapon." ”

Zhao Zilong was surprised at this moment, especially when this person recognized the green knife at a glance, and he could tell the origin of the green knife, which made him even more puzzled, and looked at the person vigilantly.

The masked man saw that Zhao Zilong's eyes were different, and immediately waved his hand and said: "You don't have to be surprised, there are many things in the world, there are still many things you don't know, as for why I understand this, hehe, the world's divine weapons, but everything that appears in the legend, there is nothing I don't know." What's more, this green knife is rumored to be a thing of Chiyou, and I saw you use it before to have a green flash, so I guessed its origin. ”

The doubt in Zhao Zilong's eyes dissipated a lot, but his heart was even more surprised, he only felt that this masked man was really extraordinary, and he could let him see through it at a glance if he was suspicious and wary.

It's just that Zhao Zilong was still full of curiosity about the green knife, and couldn't help asking: "In addition to being able to flash the green mang, does this knife have any other unique features?" Is it just sharper to be called a divine weapon? ”

The man was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Zhao Zilong and laughed: "Good boy, you want to trick me." ”

As he spoke, his eyes fell on the green knife, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes, and he continued: "It is rumored that after Chiyou cast the green knife back then, he killed too many people, and this knife also has a great demonic nature. After Chi You died, it was rumored that he sealed his cultivation realm in the green knife, and later the green knife turned into the hands of many people, but it became a monster, and no one could control and surrender, and finally died under the knife. ”

"Oh?"

Zhao Zilong's heart tightened when he heard this, and he couldn't help but glance at the green knife in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "A knife, if it can have such a magical legend, it can really be called a treasure." ”

The masked man glanced at Zhao Zilong, shook his head slowly, and said in a heavy tone: "Any legend in the world is not groundless, since there is such a legend, there must be a lot of things that have happened, you can't underestimate it." ”

Zhao Zilong laughed, and suddenly sent the green knife to the masked man: "Since it's so terrifying, the juniors still don't want it, I don't know if the seniors dare to control and surrender it?" ”

The masked man was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Zhao Zilong to make such a move, and his eyes fell on the green knife and became much hotter. However, he just glanced away and looked away, shook his head and said: "This is an ominous thing, I have been dashing all my life, how can I ask for trouble, since this knife has fallen into your hands and is so docile, I'm afraid those rumors are not true, even if it is true, you can control this knife is also fate, how can you win people's love?" ”

Zhao Zilong's eyes were like knives, and the last doubt in his heart also dissipated invisibly, and he looked at the masked man: "Since this is the case, the juniors will not force it." Today, I am fortunate to join hands with my predecessors to fight the fire, but I don't know the name of my predecessors. ”

The masked man laughed, waved his hand, and said, "A thin name is not enough, since today's encounter is the fate of you and me, I don't know if you want to hear a sentence?" ”

Zhao Zilong hurriedly showed sincerity, and clasped his fists with both hands as a salute: "Please also ask your seniors for advice." ”

"The rivers and lakes are dangerous, there are countless strange people, although you have a body of cultivation, but who knows whether this is a blessing or a curse? In the future, it is better to be cautious. Leave! After the masked man finished speaking, he didn't explain, let alone give Zhao Zilong a chance to speak, turned around and ran away.

Zhao Zilong was stunned for a moment, and then his heart changed greatly, and he chased up and shouted: "Please stay, who are you?" ”

However, the masked man made up his mind, and threw himself into the forest like a phantom, and soon disappeared......
