The sun is shining, and there is occasional wind and sand.

Xu Xinyan lay on his horse, his face was covered with a cloth towel, and there was sand and dust rushing towards him, he lowered his horse speed and rushed into the wind.

This is a waste road that few people walk, one end of the waste road is connected to the mountain, there is an iron mine in the mountain, this iron mine is not big, there is no ore after mining for several years, it is abandoned, after the mine is abandoned, there is no human population, this road opened up by the mine owner is rarely walked, only some smuggling Jianghu customers or medicine pickers occasionally enter the mountain from this trail.

A month ago, Xu Xinyan set off from Chang'an and came to Handan.

There were more than a dozen boys accompanying him, and there were also four or five internal guards, who were the front station for Du Rui, responsible for exploring the specific situation of Handan Town, no matter what he did, he needed to know himself and his opponent and prevent trouble.

After Du Rui got out of the Huanglong Secret Realm and returned to Chang'an City, Xu Xinyan also left Xinglu, completely took refuge in Du Rui, and became his doorman.

This time, there is only one reason why Xu Xinyan led the team to Handan Town, that is, Xu Xinyan's ancestral home is Handan, and he has lived in Handan Town for several years.

Xu Xinyan is a person with a story.

His father was a descendant of the concept of immortality.

The concept of immortality used to be the leader of the Kanto sect, there are not many descendants of this sect, and there is no sect like the Huashan faction or the Shaolin Temple occupies a mountain in the real world, but belongs to the hidden sect, belongs to Taoism, but pays attention to birth, to save the world, each generation of descendants have the responsibility of saving the people, legend, more than a thousand years ago, the Han Empire's Marquis Zhang came from the concept of longevity.

Two hundred years ago, the world was in turmoil, and the concept of immortality also came out of the mountain, and they supported the Northern Wei court whose capital was located in Luoyang.

At that time, the Taishang Elder of the Immortal View was the supreme grandmaster, but he was defeated by the Huashan Sword God Zhuo Bufan and the Tang Dynasty Taizu, and the hidden sect was also found, and he was forced to close the mountain, promising not to open the mountain gate for two hundred years.

The mountain gate of the concept of eternal life is a secret realm, after that battle, the secret realm is broken and crumbling, however, there are still many resources in the secret realm, enough for a sect to cultivate and recuperate, which is also the reason why the concept of eternal life accepts the closure of the mountain, it is nothing more than cultivation and recuperation, after two hundred years, and then reappear in the rivers and lakes, there is a secret realm, there are classics, there are disciples, it is not difficult to make a comeback.

However, a few decades later, during the Tianhou Dynasty of the Tang Empire, the situation changed, and this situation also affected the concept of immortality.

Although, the concept of immortality has been closed, but there are hostile forces secretly coveting, coveting the unknown secret realm, as well as the classics of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, but at that time, the sect was also unstable, there were a group of young disciples who did not accept the agreement to close the mountain, and wanted to find an opportunity to re-enter the rivers and lakes, there were internal worries, and the external enemy took the opportunity to infiltrate the concept of longevity, setting off civil strife.

After a bloody storm, the killing was boundless, and the sect was torn apart, and the disciples died and rebelled.

The plan of the unknown foreign enemy was half successful, and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Immortal View was snatched away by it, and the reason why it was said was half because the Immortal View had a fish that slipped through the net, and the Wang Daoren, who was still a teenager at the time, survived, as an unknown person, he escaped with the sect rune seal, and since then, the mutilated secret realm has been mastered by him, and after decades of silence, he has cultivated to the realm of the grandmaster.

Avenge?

This idea was also shared by the king, but he did not pursue his enemies.

The reason is simple, the power is not enough.

The secret practice of the concept of longevity is the secret of longevity, but the royal Taoist only inherits the first half, and the true qi of immortal Yimu.

Immortal Yimu True Qi is a wood-based True Qi, which is peaceful and peaceful, and has a miraculous effect on healing, however, if there is no lower half, there is no way to kill, even if it is a strong person at the grandmaster level, the combat effectiveness is not strong.

Therefore, even if they know the real enemy, the royal people do not have the power to take revenge.

He just wanted to pass on the concept of immortality.

So, he accepted two disciples, one was Xu Xinyan's father Xu Shen, and the other was his junior brother Meng Yuchuan.

Xu Shen and Meng Yuchuan are brothers with very different personalities.

Xu Shen is quite calm in life, he is a traditional monk, but because he was born in a Confucian and Taoist family, he attaches great importance to loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness; Meng Yuchuan is a more utilitarian kind of person, practical, flexible and adaptable, and not very rigid in principles.

Speaking of cultivation talent and hard work, Meng Yuchuan is above Xu Shen, from the perspective of making the sect carry forward, Meng Yuchuan is more suitable for inheritance.

However, Wang Daoren wants to pass on the sigil in charge of the secret realm channel to Xu Shen, so that he can become the head of the Immortal Concept, which is a manifestation of seeking stability, and it is related to the character of the Wang Daoren, he just wants the Immortal Immortal Outlook to be passed on safely and steadily, so he attaches more importance to Xu Shen, who is indifferent, and does not like Meng Yuchuan's too flexible temperament, he knows that if Meng Yuchuan is in control of the secret realm, he will definitely try his best to strengthen the sect.

This is an ambitious guy!

Meng Yuchuan was so talented that Wang Daoren couldn't give up, so he recruited him into the sect, wanting him to become the protector of the concept of immortality.

Wang Daoren's decision is relatively secret, and only he knows about it.

However, Meng Yuchuan was aware of it.

Xu Shen had something to do and returned to his hometown, his wife gave birth to a Lin'er for him, and the sect only had two masters and apprentices, Wang Dao and Meng Yuchuan.

Meng Yuchuan seized the opportunity, stole the rune, gained control of the secret realm, and then flew away.

His method is very secretive, as a grandmaster Wang Daoren did not notice, until the rune disappeared for a long time before he found out, for a while, the mind swayed, the divine mind was damaged, and he fell into the flames, the speed of the fall is extremely fast, from the realm of the grandmaster has been down to the consummation of Xiao Zhoutian, seemingly, Shouyuan is about to be exhausted.

He used secret methods to prolong his lifespan, like a piece of dead wood, waiting for Xu Shen to return.

When Xu Shen returned to the sect, his master Wang Daoren was already dying, and he barely supported his last words and asked him to pass on the concept of immortality.

Since Xu Xinyan can remember, he has been wandering between the north and south of the river with his father Xu Shen, it is not accurate to say that he is wandering, and his father is more like he is looking for someone, and it was not until he was seven years old that they settled down in Handan City.

Ten years ago, his father Xu Shen left the city with Xu Xinyan and built a house next to the abandoned mine to escape the war.

After the Jingbian Army quelled the rebellion in Handan Town, and the world was peaceful, the father and son of the Xu family never left there, and still lived in seclusion in the mountains.

In Xu Xinyan's heart at that time, this life was like this.

However, five years ago, when Xu Xinyan was twelve years old, things changed again.

One day, his father Xu Shen went to Handan Town to sell medicine, and when he came back, his face was not good.

He hid in the house for a long time, and only went out after a day and a night, and after going out, he pulled Xu Xinyan by his side and said a lot of words.

At this time, Xu Xinyan knew that what he had learned in his life came from the concept of immortality.

He also learned about the past of the concept of immortality from his father, and knew the grievances and hatreds between his father and his younger brother Meng Yuchuan, and the reason why he lived a life of exile when he was young was that his father was looking for Meng Yuchuan, wanting to recapture the sigil and avenge the master Wang Daoren, but Meng Yuchuan seemed to have disappeared, Xu Shen could not find his traces, and in the end, he chose to settle in Handan City.

It's not that he gave up, Xu Shen just wanted to pass on what he had learned to Xu Xinyan.

After Xu Xinyan is old and has a family, Xu Shen will leave home again and continue to follow Meng Yuchuan's traces, and he must find this rebel and avenge his master's royal man.

There is a good saying, there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them!

That day, he went out to sell medicinal herbs and saw Meng Yuchuan on the side of the road.

Meng Yuchuan did not change his name and surname, first, he was a seven-grade official in the town guard of Handan Town, responsible for handling copywriting for the town guard envoy, counselor military, the town guard envoy was a eunuch from the Daming Palace, and the chief eunuch Hu Yanshuo was responsible for supervising the Jingbian army.

No wonder there has been no trace of him, it turns out that he has thrown himself into officialdom.

This is the so-called great hidden in the world!

Xu Shen did not hide all this from Xu Xinyan, and he also made it clear that he wanted to take revenge on Meng Yuchuan.

Yet this is His Word, and this is His righteousness!

He had to do whatever he wanted.

He just warned Xu Xinyan that he must practice diligently, and if he fails to take revenge, then Xu Xinyan will need to continue to take revenge!

Xu Shen was at his peak and had already reached the end of his martial arts, so it was impossible for him to continue to endure and stay for the future, if he decided to do that, it would be just self-deception and cowardice!

Xu Xinyan had no way to stop Xu Shen, although he was reluctant, he could only be silent.

At that time, he already understood that there are many things that are more important than life.

Just as the father and son were saying goodbye, an uninvited guest came.

In Handan City, Xu Shen discovered Meng Yuchuan, what he didn't know was that Meng Yuchuan also had an induction for him, and now Meng Yuchuan was completely different from that time, a person mastered a secret realm, even if it was a broken secret realm, the speed of cultivation was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In order to protect this secret, in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, he came!

When he appeared near the mine, Xu Shen also had a sense, and he threw Xu Xinyan into the abandoned mine, which extended in all directions and the terrain was very complicated.

He himself burned down the wooden house and rushed towards Meng Yuchuan.

After that, Xu Xinyan didn't know what happened, he performed the turtle breath magic skill, jumped into an abandoned mine cave that was hundreds of feet deep, and fell asleep, and when he came out, it was already ten days later.

The first person he met was his master Xu Huanzhi, his clan uncle, his father Xu Shen had written a letter before, asking this clan uncle to leave.
