Along the way, Lu Kai has heard a lot of fairy tales and legends.

For example, some immortals once passed by the Baiyang Forest and swayed the fairy dew down.

The trees in the forest are nourished by fairy dew, and the flowering fruits are rich and fragrant, and eating them can expel all kinds of diseases.

Another example is that there is a white ape who has been instructed by immortals, and has practiced for thousands of years in the blessed land of the cave.

Most of the strange anecdotes are ridiculous, and they are the result of false rumors.

There are also some highly credible ones, which arouse Lu Kai's curiosity.

However, as soon as Lu Kai has a goal, he will not be disturbed by other affairs.

He didn't want to delay, suppressed his curiosity, and went straight to his destination.

Just stop during pranayama, find some wild fruits, and set off again.

It is the so-called sleeping in the open all the way, wandering for four points.

It's hard to be a Si Ruo who has been under the gentle care of the Sword Academy since he was a child.

However, she can withstand the devastation of the puppet state, and her heart is by no means fragile.

Although it is very naughty and naughty, it will not be vexatious.

She ate whatever she was given, and she never complained, but was fascinated by the strange scenery and was fascinated.

After navigating through a damp and dreary forest, the vision ahead widens.

There is farmland cooking smoke, and it is obviously close to Jiangluo Town.

Lu Kai first wanted to find a place to pick up his own.

It was an old man named Ji Lao.

Ji Lao is not a member of the Canglan Sword Sect.

According to the senior brother of Tianqiong Peak on the Dharma Boat, Ji Lao was originally just an ordinary countryman.

More than 20 years ago, his son and daughter-in-law were killed by demons.

It happened that a disciple of the Canglan Sword Sect passed by, and he killed the demon and avenged Ji Lao.

Ji Lao is grateful and very stubborn to repay this great kindness,

The disciple was very helpless, so he left a copy of the rough and shallow body quenching technique, saying that Ji Lao could practice self-protection and protect the township, which was to repay his kindness.

The disciple's original intention was only to give this lonely old man a hope, and he never expected him to achieve anything.

Ji Lao's muscles and bones are relaxed, and he has already passed the age of quenching and cultivating.

I never thought that Ji Lao Ji was in the bush, and at the age of sixty, he began to quench his body, day and night.

He did not give in to the mandate of heaven, although it took more than 20 years to reach the ninth level of the quenching realm, but it was impossible to break through the shackles of age with his will alone.

Over the years, Ji Lao and the Canglan Sword Sect have been in contact with each other.

Ji Lao is a pair of eyes that the Canglan Sword Sect planted in Jiangluo, and he is as loyal as one.

This time, Ji Lao was very excited when he heard that someone from the Canglan Sword Sect was coming.

He promised in the letter that he would take great pains to find out the information of the cold bone white lotus, and warmly entertain the immortal chief who had descended.

Lu Kaijian saw that under the green mountain, there was a simple thatched house, located on the cross ridge, and it was Ji Lao's home.

The thatched hut was open, and the deer barked, but no one answered.

When I walked to the door, there was a thick smell of rot in the room.

The deer knew something was wrong and rushed in.

Then he saw a withered old man lying in the middle of the house.

A large hole had been broken in his chest, and the hole was black and festering, crawling with flies, and it looked like he had been dead for a few days.

Ji Lao has been safe and sound for more than 20 years, how could he happen to die at this time?

Presumably, it is inseparable from the cold bone white lotus.

On the stove next to Lu Kaijian, there were more than a dozen white-flour steamed buns, and there were emerald green pastries on the wooden table, which should have been bought by Ji Laozhi at the town market.

The chicken pen was empty, and there were a few dead chickens about to pluck their feathers in the basin.

These are all prepared by Ji Lao to entertain me, right?

Lu Kai sighed slightly and closed Ji Lao's unwilling eyes.

"Ji Lao, you can go in peace, I won't let you die in vain. ”

The sunlight outside the door shone into the thatched house.

Lu Kai found that there was an elongated figure on the ground.

Someone blocked the door of the thatched hut.

"If you don't let Ji Lao die in vain, then you might as well go down there to accompany him, right?"

The deer turned his head.

A young man with deep-set eyes and a languid face stood on the threshold.

He held a hook with a black blade smeared with poison.

Ji Lao's chest wound, flesh turned out, and his skin was dark, there was no doubt that this person was the murderer.

Lu Kai stood up and looked at the languishing youth: "You should know that Ji Lao is also half a member of the Canglan Sword Sect." ”

The languishing young man said indifferently: "Whoever let him covet the Cold Bone White Lotus, the Cold Bone White Lotus is in my eldest brother's bag, and whoever wants it will die." It was only a few days after I killed this guy that I heard that it had something to do with the Canglan Sword Sect. No, my eldest brother told me to come and destroy the corpses and burn this place on fire. ”

Lu Kai sneered: "It's good, lest I look for the murderer everywhere." ”

The sluggish young man frowned and shouted: "Ignorant children speak wildly, can you know that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake? Now that you know about this, the news will leak and you will have to die. ”

The words and deeds of the languishing young man did not seem to take the Canglan Sword Sect too seriously.

The Canglan Sword Sect is the first sect in the state of slashing, yes.

But because it is thousands of miles away from here, and the sphere of influence is beyond reach, few disciples come here.

The people who are solid and Jiangluo, when it comes to the fear of the Canglan Sword Sect, are far less than the Qingyang Sect that is a little closer.

The languishing young man shook his head again and smiled: "Canglan Sword Sect, will I send you a hairy boy?"

Lu Kai said: "Enough. ”

The sluggish young man saw Si Ruo on Lu Kai's shoulder again, and said slightly stunned: "Tut-tut, the disciple of the Righteous Path Immortal Sect has also learned to rob the people's daughters, and he is still stunned, and the means are really despicable." ”

The languishing young man raised the crescent moon hook and said with a smile: "Hehe, if I kill you, will it be counted as the name of eliminating harm that you often shout?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately struck.

The hook is like a crescent moon, turning into cold light and flying in.

Lu Kai carried Si Ruo on his left shoulder, too lazy to draw his sword.

He stretched out his right hand and grabbed at the hook that flew like an arrow.

The languishing youth pouted and smiled.

Does he want to catch a white blade with his bare hands, or a poisonous blade?

Sure enough, the Canglan Sword Sect has been touted for a long time, and all of them are arrogant, and in the worship and respect of the people, they have become wine bags and rice bags.

Lu Kai's hand Jin Xia Zhenyuan bloomed.

His right hand is like a golden hand.

He grasped the hook and pinched it with five fingers.

Yikes!

The hook is twisted and deformed.

The face of the languishing young man finally changed.

Lu Kai's right hand kneaded vigorously, and when it was opened, the hook was crumpled like a piece of paper.

Sweat trickled down the face of the languishing youth.

He remembered that the eldest brother and the second brother had always taught that they should not be underestimated, but he had been rampant in Jiangluo Town for a long time, and under the unscrupulousness, he had long lost his awe.

Any kneading weapon, he's a monster!

Lu Kai threw away the crumpled hook and clenched his right hand into a fist.

Golden fist.

Rumble!

The fist slammed into the languishing youth.

Only then did the sluggish young man panic, and while retreating with all his might, he said with a slight tremble: "Spare my life, I'll tell you about the cold bone white lotus, and ...... else"

Lu Kai's face was expressionless: "I don't need you to tell me, I already know." You better go underground and ask Ji Lao, do you spare your life. ”

A punch pierced through the chest, and the blood behind the wilted young man took the form of a funnel, spurting outward.

The languishing youth fell.

The deer bounced off the blood all over his arm.

And this kind of weak chicken, it should be killed with one blow, and he is too lazy to talk in vain.

Lu Kai looked at Ji Lao's corpse......

On the hillside, a new grave was added.

Lu Kai is shoveling soil for the grave.

On the side of the grave, a large firewood was erected, and the body of a wilted young man lay in the wood, which was being burned.

The flames were blazing and the smoke was rising.

Si Ruo woke up slowly, saw the fire and said curiously: "Hey, junior brother, what are you burning?"

"Burn people. ”

Si Ruo got up and said with interest: "What are you doing burning people?"

Lu Kai kicked the big jar at his feet and said, "Burn people, save some of his ashes." ”

"Can ashes be played?"

Lu Kai touched Ji Lao's tombstone and said with a smile: "You can play, when I settle Ji Lao, tomorrow we will enter Jiangluo Town together, and I will raise his ashes in front of his big brothers!"

Si Ruo's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "I've never played, can I play with the matter of raising the ashes?"

Lu Kai nodded: "Okay." ”
