Just when Xiao Yezi was entangled in Yunxi, in an unknown town hundreds of miles away, Li Li, who was thinking about it, was seizing the time to rest.

In the middle of the night, the breeze blows and the stars shine. This is Li Li's rare quiet time in the past half a month. During this time, he had become accustomed to hiding in Tibet. At this moment, it was a luxury for him to lie on the soft turf and look up at the stars in the sky.

Looking back half a month ago, he could never have imagined that stargazing could become his luxury hobby. This reminded him that in the past nineteen years, he had never cherished the beauty of the starry sky, and he couldn't help but laugh dumbly. It turns out that if you lose the beauty, you will cherish this short period of tranquility.

His whole body stretched out like a large character, as if growing on the grass, and he didn't move, and he didn't want to move. The grass slope was wet, soaking through the thin coat on his back and wetting the dagger at his waist. Maybe this will be his life for the rest of his life, watching out, thinking and planning every day.

In half a month, in just 14 days, he changed from an innocent and carefree rich young master to a drunk man who lingered among the drunkards, a child crying in a woman's arms, a beggar rolling in the mud, a killer crawling in blood, a liquor that he dared not touch before, a dark kiln that he had never entered before, a mud pond that he refused to drill before, and a person who did not have to kill before. In fourteen days, he really went through it. Now when I think of my simple self back then, it's really like a lifetime away.

I still remember that day, I didn't pay attention to Pingjiang City and was separated from Xiaoyezi. It's just that I walked at a fork in the road, and I met the old man who changed his life. He is also so young, but when he saw more than a dozen young men surrounding a skinny old man, he couldn't help but draw his sword to help, and he didn't remember that he was alone and alone, and he didn't have the ability to master the knife of being a hero in his hand.

"Isn't this the eldest young master of the Li family in Nianfei Village? The hair didn't grow together, so he came out to be a roadblocker? ”

"Gao Daling has been missing for several days, and he must have nothing to do with him!"

"This kid usually gangs up and fights people, and he didn't like him early on, so he wasted him!"

"Stinky boy, don't look at what kind of hero the uncle is!"

He didn't retreat, clasped his hands to his chest, smiled arrogantly, and his face was full of contempt without concealing it at all: "Even you, you are worthy of calling yourself heroes!" ”

The big man led by him was angry, and with just a wave of his hand, his left and right grabbed Li Li's arm, and before Li Li could struggle, he received a loud slap on the cheek, which made Li Li's mouth full of blood. He was dizzy, but his curses became more and more determined. Dahan suddenly smiled when he saw his hateful eyes.

"Don't look at this kid's white looks, his eyes are like wolves!" Before the words fell, his cheek was pinched in the hand of the big man, "I like it!" ”

Looking at Dahan's evil and obscene eyes, Li Li understood what Dahan wanted even if he didn't go through any other things. When the unscrupulous hand touched him, he jerked forward and bit the big man's right eye. Blood splattered and sprayed him in the face.

The old man, who had not been rescued, shrank to the side and stared at him with wide eyes, as if he was very afraid. Looking closely, the old man's face seemed to have an unbearable look, but this look only flashed, and there was no trace.

While the big man was screaming, he flew up with all his strength and kicked at the big man's vital point. But how could the other party allow him to be presumptuous again? At the sound of an order, two short knives plunged into his thighs.

When he looked up, the sun seemed to be hot, so hot that he just wanted to pass out. Cold sweat erupted from his forehead, the pain was piercing, the pain was heartbreaking, and his teeth were clenched tightly, and he was afraid that the stones would be crushed. But he would not beg for mercy.

The injured man covered his bloody eyes and shouted, "Kill him for Lao Tzu!" ”

A knife, a knife, a knife...... It hurts so much that I don't know how many times I've been slowly tortured. The other party is very experienced, and every time he stabs slowly, but accurately provokes his most painful nerve.

He couldn't control his tear ducts at all, his whole face was distorted in a pool of blood, and he couldn't tell whether it was blood or tears on his face, but he still didn't say a word.

Just when the big man thought that he had no power to resist, he leaned over and laughed and laughed at him for not being able to do anything. He used all his strength to glare at his eyes, which were about to open, aimed at the big man's face, and spat violently. Dahan only felt a pain on his face, and when he reached out to touch it, he grabbed half a tooth.

It turned out that Li Li hurt too much, endured too much, and even gritted his teeth.

"Stinky boy!" Dahan felt insulted, pulled out his waist knife, and was about to kill him.

Just as Dahan was about to kill him with a knife, the old man, who seemed to be fragile and dying, suddenly jumped out like the wind, slapped out with one palm, and instantly knocked Dahan flying three zhang away. And he couldn't stand it anymore, he could only hear the sharp and piercing sound of countless hidden weapons breaking through the air around him, the sound of explosions was endless, and the sulfur breath hit his weak body with a strong wave of qi, knocking him unconscious.

When he woke up, he found himself in a cave. He was lying on a rudimentary stone bed, his wounds properly bandaged and no longer bleeding. He struggled in pain, and found that it was meaningless, and only his eyes could move his whole body.

Who brought him? And who treated his wounds? Don't......

He kept his eyes wide open, and his thoughts were confirmed as the old man's figure turned into his field of vision from outside the hole.

The old man kindly fed him a bowl of thick blue-green medicinal soup, and then moved his fingers like the wind to the big acupoints around him, and then helped him up, put his palms against his back of the heart, and healed his wounds. Li Li is like a puppet, with no self-control, but there are many puzzles in her heart that she wants to ask for answers. His lips trembled, and he wanted to speak, but when he said it to his lips, he couldn't make a sound.

The old man taught him every day, fed him medicine, and raised him for seven or eight days, and he only recovered some vitality a little. Compared to the last time he fought with the villains, this time he was injured far more than at the time, but he unexpectedly recovered exceptionally quickly. Could it be related to the old man's exercise to heal his wounds? Or is it the miracle of this blue potion soup? He tried to get up, but he was finally able to slowly hold on to the wall and stand up. But in a short time, he lost his breath and sat down on the stone bed in a decadent manner.

The old man went out alone in the morning and returned at noon with a lean chicken in his hand. The old man made a fire and boiled a pot of bland chicken soup, and put a bowl on it to Li Li's mouth. Li Li saw that the old man was acting as usual, and he was relieved, but he also complained that he had no eyes. thought that this old man was a victim, so he disregarded his life and rescued him. How do you know that the rookie has always been the only one, and he almost lost his life at such a great risk, but it turned out to be self-inflicted. Thinking of this, where could he bear this breath, his head was biased, and he refused to drink chicken soup.

Unexpectedly, the old man didn't care about his emotions, grabbed his jaw with one hand, and forced him to pour chicken soup into it.

Li Li was forced to pour soup, and she didn't have time to digest it, so she choked and coughed, but she didn't forget to sarcastically mock the old man: "You are so capable, it's good to leave by yourself, so why bother with my life or death." ”

The old man smiled strangely: "You blame me? I didn't let you save it. It's you who don't measure yourself and are hard to fill the hero. ”

Li Li snorted: "The bridge returns to the bridge and the road returns, please." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the meaning of sending off guests was obvious. The old man shrugged his shoulders and grinned: "I discovered this cave first, first come, first served, this cave is my territory." You're not qualified to drive me away, if you want to go, you can go, if you can move. ”

Li Li couldn't stand such an agitation, touched a long branch beside him, and was about to force him out. Unexpectedly, the branches were fragile, and as soon as Li Li stood up, the branches broke at the waist. Li Li couldn't stand, and fell to the ground with a pop, only to fall to the black, but his hands and feet didn't stop, and he struggled to get up and wanted to walk again.

Seeing Li Li like this, the old man shook his head and sighed: "You stubborn boy, you are exactly the same as when I was young. That's it. The old man stepped forward to help him up, fearing that he would resist again, so he reached out and pointed at his acupoint again, and forcibly put him back on the bed. Li Li was so angry that his chest kept rising and falling, staring directly at the old man. The old man patted him on the shoulder, casually unraveled his acupoint, changed to a relatively soft tone, and said, "I know you have anger in your heart. You took a righteous shot, although you were defeated, but I wrote down the grace of saving your life. After speaking, he faced Li Li and bowed deeply, "Please accept my worship." ”

Look at this old man's gray hair, as if he was fifty or sixty years old, although he was more than seven feet tall, he was in a big shape, thin as a skeleton, and he was already in his last years. Although he is a master, he will not oppress others because of his seniority or ability, and his attitude is very sincere. Li Li was shocked to see that he was willing to bend down to apologize, his heart softened, and he lowered his eyes and said, "I didn't do anything, you don't have to remember." ”

The old man looked at the sun outside the cave, pondered the time, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a few blue-green pills, and sent them to Li Li's mouth: "The time has come, take it quickly." ”

Although Li Li didn't know what it was, seeing his kind face, he thought that this must be a life-saving medicine, so he took it. As soon as I took it, I felt a fever in my abdomen, and after a while, it burned like fire, and it bumped into my abdomen like a loach, and my mental and physical strength increased greatly in an instant. Suddenly, the old man said: "You calm down, breathe deeply, and let the heat in your abdomen reach the middle of your chest." ”

Li Li was puzzled, but still did what he said. Strange to say, he calmed down and drove the heat in his abdomen, and after a while, he only felt that the heat in his abdomen merged into a heat wave, going up along his internal organs, and in only a quarter of an hour, he swam to the position of his chest. He was so surprised that as soon as he opened his eyes, the heat was evacuated, and his body was warm and indescribably comfortable.

The old man observed his face for a long time, and then checked his pulse, then relaxed, and said, "Your life can be regarded as saved." ”

Li Li guessed that when he was in a coma, the old man put a lot of effort into it, and he was grateful, and said, "Thank you." ”

The old man smiled faintly and shook his head. A ray of sunlight reflected through the hole and shone on the old man's face. His old, clear, scarred face flickered in the sunlight. The light and shadow in the cave floated, and his lean frame looked even more rugged in the backlight.

"My name is Lu Di. Land of land, kill the enemy. ”

Li Li was stunned for a moment, the name was clearly familiar, and then said, "Senior Lu." ”

Seeing that Li Li was not surprised, Lu Di couldn't help but smile: "Have you heard of my name?" ”

"I'm just a country boy, but I've heard of the name of the Heavenly King of the Heavenly King Gang Fengrui Battalion." Li Li said, "However, I have only heard of it." ”

"What's your name? How old is this year? Are you from Pingjiang City? What do you do at home? ”

"The younger Li Li, nineteen years old this year, is a person from Nianfei Village, Qihuang Mountain, and his parents are ...... His parents are squires of Nianfei Village, and his family has some land and has been living on land rent, and in recent years, he has also contacted Nanyang friends to do some business of reselling salt and cloth. ”

......Seeing that Li Li hesitated a little when talking about his parents, Lu Di was puzzled: "Did something happen to your parents?" ”

Thinking of the tragic death of his parents, Li Li's eyes turned red again, and he couldn't bear the grief in his heart: "Yes." My parents and the entire village were killed by the Heavenly Ninja Sect a few days ago. ”

"This ......" Lu Di pondered for a moment, patted him on the shoulder to show comfort, and said: "The Heavenly Ninja Sect is subordinate to Yanjin, how could he go deep into the Zhaoyin realm and go to the trouble of your small village for no reason?" ”

Li Li shook his head and said suddenly: "I don't know, maybe it's because of Bi Ling." ”

When Lu Di heard the word Bi Ling, he frowned deeply: "Bi Ling? You are a small village that has no quarrel with the world, what does it have to do with Biling? I'm afraid it's a good thing made up, it's appalling, right? ”

Li Lifu shook his head and said: "I don't know what Bi Ling is, even if I hear this word by chance, I just heard it in some rumors in the stories of the rivers and lakes." Who knew that our family had suffered misfortune because of such unfounded rumors. ”

"The people of the Heavenly Ninja Sect slaughtered the entire village, you don't know martial arts, how can you escape this catastrophe?"

Li Li relayed the story of what happened to him and Xiao Yezi the night before the villagers were killed, and relayed it to Lu Di. After hearing this, Lu Di first regretted the tragic death of the villagers, and then when he heard Yang Yizhao's name, he smiled again: "It turns out that you met Yang Yizhao, a kid, and you survived." Even this kid has visited this place, maybe in your village, there are really some clues to Bi Ling. ”

Li Li snorted coldly: "What Bi Ling, I'm afraid it's just a false name." This kind of extraneous stuff was so exhausting that my family died. Even if it is the elixir of Yaochi, it seems to me to be a bad curse. ”

Hearing this, Lu Di seemed to remember the past and sighed: "If I could be as transparent as you back then, I'm afraid I wouldn't have fallen to this." Alone, helpless. With that, he took out a small coarse cloth bag from his bosom, carefully opened the small bag layer by layer, and finally revealed a simple wooden strip. The strips of wood are dark in color and very hard in texture, intricately carved throughout, with unique shapes, and several falcon openings around the edges, which seem to be part of a separate accessory.

Lu Di stroked the wooden bar for a long time, sighed, and said, "I joined the Fengrui Battalion at the age of twenty-eight, and I wanted to make a big difference. At that time, he was young and vigorous, and he just wanted to become famous, hoping that one day, he could dominate the world in martial arts and become a generation of grandmasters. Sun Mengran, the master of the martial arts hall, was good friends with me, and it was very speculative to talk to each other, and it didn't take long for us to swear by blood and become brothers with different surnames. The two young people didn't want anything, except for the daily affairs of the gang, they both hid in the martial arts hall, studied the cheats, practiced martial arts, and imagined the future. ”
