In the evening, the burning clouds on the horizon were connected, and the sky was full of red clouds.

Lu Ren carried a jar of rice wine and two catties of beef to Hou Taisui's courtyard.

Bai Qianchu fell far behind her, she still didn't worry about Lu Ren going to see Hou Taisui alone, even if Lu Ren could already win the demon monkey.

The yard is quiet.

Hou Taisui's sturdy body sat on a narrow stool, holding the poor monkey in his arms.

He kept touching the monkey's hair.

Occasional sigh.

Lu Ren's footsteps sounded in the courtyard, and he glanced back and saw Lu Ren standing at the gate of the courtyard.

"It's coming. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Sit down......"

He gestured to the stool next to him.

Lu Ren sat down, the monkey screamed twice, and hid in Hou Taisui's arms, looking at Lu Ren timidly with two eyes.

It hurt from that kick, and it broke a rib.

"I'm sorry to ......," Lu Ren said, "I broke through at that time, and I didn't control my strength for a while. ”

Hou Taisui waved his hand,

"It's okay, it's not your fault. ”

In fact, Hou Taisui also knew that compared to a few other people who could teach Lu Ren the exercises, he had nothing to teach Lu Ren, but just let Lu Ren keep fighting against the monkey after demonization.

Lu Ren put the wine and beef on the ground and beckoned to the monkey.

"Come, taste. ”

The monkey looked at the wine on the ground, then at Lu Ren, and shook his head.

Lu Ren opened the wine jar, and a smell of wine wafted out.

The monkey swallowed.

"Go ahead. Hou Taisui patted its head, and then it had the courage to walk down, picked up the wine jar and sniffed it deeply, and then took the wine jar aside and took a sip.

Lu Ren smiled.

Hou Taisui also smiled.

"I have been with it since I was a child, it saved my life, the village was on fire, everyone was burned to death, but I was woken up from my dream by it and ran out of the fire......"

Hou Taisui recalled the past.

"Later, I went up to the mountain to learn the arts, and the master was very strict with me because I couldn't pay tribute to him like other disciples. He sighed, and then said, "And the master didn't allow me to take Ah Ash with me, so Ah Ash could only hide in the mountains and forests, and every time he waited until midnight to come down from the mountain to see me." ”

Ash is the name of the monkey.

"Even so, every time the master sees Ah Ash, he will still drive him away, and when he is in a bad mood, he may be beaten with a stick. ”

"Later, once I hit Ah Ash, Ah Ash demonized, couldn't control the anger in his chest, and killed a lot of people, originally I thought Ah Ash would also kill me, who knew that when it saw me, the anger in his eyes gradually calmed down. ”

"Later, some righteous sects heard the rumors, saying that Ah Ash was the remnant of the demon clan and wanted to kill it, so I fled with Ah Ash all the way until I came to Jingshui Town......

It was the first time Lu Ren had heard Hou Taisui talk about the past, and he didn't expect this big man with a strong body to have such a story with this monkey.

The monkey was holding the wine jar, and was a little drunk, and the monkey's face was red and fluttering, and the soles of his feet were shaking.

Bai Qianchu stood at the door and didn't come in, quietly watching Lu Ren and Hou Taisui chatting in the courtyard.

Hou Taisui's face in the sunset was a little black and red.

He glanced at Ah Ash, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Actually, the people who can live in peace in the town are not too bad, but this world can't tolerate them." ”

"Oh, is it?" Lu Ren smiled slightly and said, "Old man Zhang went out last month, didn't he go out to do evil?"

Hou Taisui shook his head and said, "He's going to take revenge." ”

"Revenge?" Lu Ren was stunned.

Hou Taisui said: "Do you remember that he said that he pinched to death the seven-year-old son of the head of the Zhengyi Sect?"

Lu Ren nodded.

"That's because the head of the Zhengyi Sect forcibly married his daughter......" Hou Taisui sighed.

Lu Ren was puzzled and asked: "Then killing the son of the head of the Zhengyi Sect can be regarded as revenge, why do you want to go out?"

Hou Taisui's eyes looked at the sky in the distance, and said slowly: "He killed the son of the head of Zhengyizong, and Zhengyizong killed his whole family of seventeen, but the poor family hid in the mountains and didn't hide in the end, only Old Man Zhang survived, so every once in a while, Old Man Zhang would go out to intercept and kill the young disciples of Zhengyi Sect." ”

Lu Ren was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect it to be like this.

If you have to say that the clay figure Zhang is the devil, wouldn't the Zhengyi sect be even more hateful?

Zhengyizong is also known as one of the three righteous sects in the world, doing this kind of thing, what a righteous bull's ear!

In this world, what is good and what is evil?

The sky is getting dark,

After the two chatted a few words, Lu Ren got up to say goodbye.

When Bai Qianchu saw him come out, he greeted him with a smile, but found that under the dim sky, Lu Ren's brows were furrowed.

......

A month later, it was time for kitchen knife Liu to teach knife skills.

At this time, Lu Ren's first level of refining body realm had been consolidated, his true qi was constantly refining his muscles and bones, and his body was a little stronger than before.

On this day, he came with a brand new kitchen knife.

Kitchen knife Liu sat straight in the room, motionless, a snow-white shirt as pure as snow, blood beads on the kitchen knife in his hand dripped down the blade, and in front of him was the cow bone he had just finished.

Kitchen knife Liu coldly watched Lu Ren walk into the house, and suddenly asked, "I heard that Hou Taisui lost to you?"

Lu Ren nodded.

Kitchen knife Liu Dao: "Who are you going to challenge next?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. Lu Ren said with a smile.

He really didn't think about it, Shopkeeper Tu, Qingyang, and Clay Man Zhang were all the first strength of the Open Mind Realm, he had just entered the Body Refining Realm, and it was impossible to challenge the three of them for the time being.

The three brothers of the Ghost Clan even went to pee together, and they had to fight three to challenge them, even if they were all the strength of the Body Refining Realm, it was more difficult.

At present, it seems that the kitchen knife in front of Liu is more suitable.

It's just that the kitchen knife Liu's 'chaotic cloak knife method' is impermeable, and even if the two of them fight for a day and a night, they can't tell the winner.

What made Lu Ren most depressed was that the kitchen knife Liu was not fighting with him at all.

He said that he only promised Bai Qianchu to teach him exercises, and did not agree to fight with him, and Lu Ren was also very helpless.

There was silence in the room.

Kitchen knife Liu stared at him for a long time, then suddenly got up and said, "Follow me." ”

Lu Ren followed behind him and walked to the backyard.

Before I reached the backyard, I heard a roar, a creepy roar.

"Tiger?" Lu Ren frowned.

In a black-skinned iron house in front of me, the sound of tigers banging on the walls and roaring can be heard from time to time.

"Not bad. "Kitchen knife Liu Dao.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Ren asked.

Kitchen knife Liu glanced at him and said, "You have already picked the cow, as long as you can pick this tiger, I will fight with you." ”

Are you kidding!

Can a cow be the same as a tiger?

Lu Ren rolled his eyes and was speechless for a moment.

It's just that he also wanted to try whether he could beat the kitchen knife Liu, so he nodded and said, "Okay!"

He pulled out his kitchen knife and walked into the tin house.

Kitchen knife Liu stood straight at the door with his hands behind his back, as long as he wanted, he could stand for four or five hours without moving.

After a while,

The tiger stopped barking, and the house was quiet.

Then I saw Lu Ren walking out of the house in an embarrassed manner.

"So fast?" asked the kitchen knife Liu coldly.

"Of course, don't look at who taught me the knife technique, the 'chaotic cloak knife technique' specializes in all kinds of small animals. Lu Ren smiled: "Don't believe you, go in and check it?"

Kitchen knife Liu walked to the door and walked in with his feet raised.

suddenly

The iron door behind him was closed with a "bang", and then there was a "click" sound of locking.

Kitchen knife Liu turned back sharply,

I saw a spotted tiger glaring at him with ferocious eyes, let out a roar, and pounced directly.

Lu Ren, who was outside the door, looked at Bai Qianchu who was sitting on a branch not far away and smiled slightly-the poison of the three brothers of the Ghost Clan is really easy to use, and the dose is used well, and it will take a few seconds to stun the tiger.
