Yu has the name of the mountain out of the immortal, the mountain is high and in the clouds, the mountain is surrounded by planting, the forest is born Xuan, the north ring Weishui, there is a fire pool under the sun and the moon, the pond has the spirit to give birth to Zhu Guo, ten years can get one, incense carved through, food of the nourishment Xuan.

Zhu Guo was the only method that Li Xuan could think of that could put him on the path of cultivation. Tens of millions of mortals in the world who do not dream of riding the wind and sword like immortals, pointing to break the sky, the so-called horseman is angry and blood is splashed five feet, the emperor is angry and ambushes millions, the strength of this world represents everything, and the ordinary is the original sin, the weak are ants and mermaids, and they cannot be practiced, even if the martial arts are strong, they are ordinary people.

Therefore, along with the ten-year-old Zhu Guo, there is endless killing and fighting. Li Xuan was ready to kill, and he was ready to be killed.

Also having the same idea as Li Xuan is Zou Sanfu, who has been sharpening a sword for ten years just for Zhu Guo.

His ancestors were ordinary people who could practice because of eating vermilion fruits, and with the rise of their ancestors, several cultivators were born in the family, and the Zou family grew into a famous family in Sichuan for thousands of years.

He was given high hopes before he was born, and if he could practice, then regardless of whether he was a descendant or a collateral line, he would become the hope of the family and would be given better resources for cultivation. His old mother, who was a concubine, could also be treated better.

It's a pity that he's not .......

Since he was a child, his status was not even as good as that of the servant who urinated beside his eldest son, and he was subjected to cold eyes, and lived for twenty years. Growing up with him was his resentment and anger, and his cold eyes blurred into a slit and overflowed with a cold gaze.

For Zhu Guo, he has confidence, he endured all the hard work, and he is already the leader of the younger generation in the family, for Zou Sanfu, who killed a subordinate who was arrogant to him at the age of eight, his peers in the family are like intellectual retards in a greenhouse who do not know the height of the sky.

When he is alive and has real power, he will clean up the family and slaughter the idiots who look down on him alive. Thinking of this, his anger increased dramatically, and he was murderous.

Zou Sanfu, who was walking in the woods with a sword, met a young swordsman named Li Xuan who went to Sun Moon Lake with him, and the other party was very kind, so he temporarily decided not to kill the other party first, and the two walked as companions, talking and testing each other from time to time.

Soon the sun went down, and the woods looked a little gloomy, and the two decided not to go any further.

Li Xuan lit a bonfire, took out a ham from the baggage, and heated it with a wooden stick, and soon the aroma overflowed, which made Zou Sanfu also a little moved. Li Xuan cut a piece with a knife and handed it to Zou Sanfu with a smile:

"Brother Zou, please use it, you're welcome. ”

After that, he also cut a piece and enjoyed it, Zou Sanfu thanked him, vaguely observed that Li Xuan had already eaten it, and also tore a piece and put it in his mouth.

"It's delicious, Brother Li's piece of smoked ham is not ordinary, the meat is loose but not woody, the taste is very fragrant, comparable to delicacies. Zou Sanfu said with some surprise.

Li Xuan smiled:

"When I moved my family into Yudu, I passed by a ham shop, its fragrance overflowed the streets and alleys, and there were many buyers in line like a long dragon, and the little sister drooled, I couldn't bear the little sister coquettish and bought one, and I was surprised like Brother Zou, and wanted to exchange money for the production of this ham, the shop refused at first, but after all, I was conquered by my dead skin and face, and I exchanged it for a family heirloom. ”

"Brother Li is also a second person, and he is willing to exchange family heirlooms for little sister laughter"

"Where do I have what you say, in fact, I am also a glutton, and my family heirloom is not valuable, but it is a little old. ”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

"Brother Zou and I hit it off at first sight, but it's a pity that Zhu Guo only has one, and the two of us are destined to have a fight. Li Xuan sighed a little.

"What Brother Li said is extremely true, this heaven is unfair, why some people are born to practice, but some people are destined to rise and fall in the mortal world. Zou Sanfu also sighed.

"If there are practitioners who are also involved in the struggle, then we are not in vain. Li Xuan voiced his concerns.

"Brother Li is too worried, there will be no cultivators participating in the competition for spiritual objects like Zhu Guo. Zou Sanfu said.

"Why? Even if Zhu Guo's role for cultivators is not as great as that of mortals such as you and me, it is also a rare spiritual creature in the world. Why don't they fight?"

Zou Sanfu nodded and said:

"Brother Li's intentions are well known, but Brother Li has forgotten one of the most important factors. ”

"Factors?"

"Of course, it's the imperial court, since Song Taizu ruled the world a thousand years ago and drove the barbarians to the northern land, my Great Song Dynasty occupies the most fertile land in this continent and has the most powerful cultivators. However, with the passage of time, our descendants have become accustomed to an idle life, and have long lost the blood and momentum of our late ancestors who are not afraid of the heavenly oath and the heavenly struggle. ”

Li Xuan was puzzled and said:

"What does this have to do with this Zhu Guo dispute?"

Zou Sanfu smiled and continued:

"Five hundred years ago, the king of Aya in northern Xinjiang unified the north and proclaimed himself the king of Liao, the Western Xia after hundreds of years of recuperation and recuperation has become a climate, and the court has long been in danger for hundreds of years. Therefore, the Great Song Dynasty has never seen the emergence of the strong, and the strong rise between danger and struggle on the edge of life and death. The territory of the Great Song Dynasty is vast, and there are many spiritual objects in the holy land, just like this Zhu Guo dispute, the person who won Zhu Guo can almost be said to be the strongest among the mortals in this area, and the imperial court will not let the cultivators interfere with the balance of this selection for their own selfish desires. That's why I said that Brother Li was too worried. ”

Li Xuan suddenly suddenly,

"I see, thank you Brother Zou for your concern. ”。

"It doesn't matter. ”

Zou Sanfu said nonchalantly.

It was getting late at this time, and the two of them were a little tired of sitting on the ground leaning against the tree because they had been shuttling through the woods all day, and from time to time the beast roared with the breeze, and the fire shone on their faces flickeringly, so that they could not see each other's expressions clearly. Suddenly, Li Xuan frowned and said softly:

"Brother Li, did you smell a smell of rot?"

Zou Sanfu also sniffed, got up to extinguish the bonfire, and said in a condensed voice:

"It's the smell of corpses. ”

Li Xuan nodded, so the two of them hid behind the tree and watched ahead.

In a few moments, they were alerted to the shrubs in front of them, and several figures stepped straight through the thorny bushes and walked towards them, their limbs stiff and stiff, shaking their heads as uncoordinated as walking corpses.

Zou Sanfu said in a low voice:

"It's me who drove corpses out of Sichuan, these corpses are pathfinders, and the ones who control them are behind, and they should also be here for Zhu Guo. ”

Li Xuan nodded, he had also heard of the name of the corpse chaser in Sichuan. The two didn't know the details of the other party's intentions and were ready to fight.

The corpse walked slowly, walked in front of the two and stopped, the air was filled with a disgusting stench, several corpses were wearing tattered gray and blue plackets and high felt hats, some limbs had rotted and pieces of rotten skin and rotten flesh hung on their faces, their eyes were full of eyelets, gray and not without a trace of life, standing in front of the two of them and shaking their bodies.

Zou Sanfu's brows furrowed even more, and he said loudly forward:

"Since Your Excellency is here, but you don't dare to show up, send a few corpses to find out the truth of the two of us, and I am not afraid that I will lose the reputation of the corpse chaser faction. ”

"Boom, the little ghost has a lot of guts, dare to speak to me like this, be careful that I accept you as my corpse. ”

A sharp cry came from not far away, and Zou Sanfu's eyes revealed coldness, and the small long sword had already been pulled out and the cold light was overflowing. Li Xuan noticed that he was speechless.

The bushes not far away began to move again, and an extremely low voice and shadow came, the man was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a small black banner in his hand, with an ugly face, with a miserable white complexion and low head, it would always make people unconsciously contempt, but Li Xuan did not dare to underestimate the other party at all, because he knew very well that there were many people who died under his Pu knife because they underestimated him.

"You are also the one who covets Zhu Guo?"

The ugly man looked up at Li Xuan and the two said.

Watching Zou Sanfu was silent, Li Xuan held the Pu knife in his hand and said:

"Exactly, the two of us also have some luck, if we are lucky, we also have the qualifications to practice. ”

The man noticed that Zou Sanfu had already made a move, and his pale face showed a look of disdain, and said:

"Jie Ji, be careful that Zhu Guo didn't grab it, but lost a little of his own life, see these people behind me? They also had a fluke heart to fight with me before they became my spirit corpses. He began to laugh darkly.

Zou Sanfu pulled out his sword with some anger and pointed at the corpse man, and said ruthlessly:

"Listen to your tone, as if you can really kill me both, do you want to try, is your corpse better or my long sword sharper. Saying that, the sword was unsheathed, and the sword light reflected on Yueguan, which happened to shine on the ugly face of the corpse chaser.

"Ignorant children have guts. The man grinned and tilted his head, and the corpse behind him began to let out a faint low growl.

This is not a scene that Li Xuan does not want to see, if the battle is not beneficial to him, even if he kills the corpse chaser, he will not gain anything, he knows very well that Zou Sanfu is deliberately guiding the scene into a stalemate, there is no need for him to get involved. So he said:

"Wait, if it doesn't do us any good if we fight, there are countless people who want Zhu Guo, if we haven't seen Zhu Guo yet, we have the capital to fight with others. ”

Although the two agreed, Ren did not stop there, Li Xuan saw this, walked to Zou Sanfu's side and patted Zou Sanfu's right arm holding the sword, Zou Sanfu knew that he couldn't fight, and secretly scolded Li Xuan for coercing the goods to collect the sword into the sheath, and said to the man who drove the corpse:

"Today, I will give Brother Li a face, don't worry about you, and when the time comes, I will definitely behead you. ”

"Ignorant children will take advantage of the corners of their mouths, and by then they don't know who will kill whom, your material is better than a few behind me, so it's really hard for me to give up. ”

The man who chased the corpse said viciously, and made a movement to wipe his neck at Zou Sanfu, and Li Xuan smiled inexplicably, holding the corpse banner in his hand, manipulating the corpse and disappearing into the vast forest.

Zou Sanfu's expression was cloudy, he wanted to use this to urge Li Xuan to kill the other party with himself, and by the way, he explored Li Xuan's hypocrisy, but he didn't expect to be resolved by Li Xuan like this.

So, he quickly adjusted his mood and said:

"The corpse chasing faction deprives innocent people of their lives and manipulates the bodies of dead people, this is really a matter of losing conscience, why doesn't Brother Li kill the other party with me and do the right thing for heaven?"

Li Xuan nodded:

"I know that Brother Zou is righteous in his heart, but we don't have to do this, this person will die when he comes here. Why do you and I have to do it ourselves? ”

"Oh, I don't understand what Brother Li means by that. ”

"Chasing corpses like cold and disgusted with fire, Sun Moon Lake is magma condensing the fire of heaven and earth, the closer you get, the more scorching it is, you and I ordinary people can't stand it, not to mention that this Sichuan corpse is afraid that the corpse will melt before it reaches the fire pool, and then his strength will be drastically reduced, but it is the fish and meat of others, why should you and I bother. ”

Zou Sanfu said with a sudden look:

"What Brother Li said is very true, but I am a little ignorant, thank you. ”

"No thanks," Li Xuan continued:

"Also, I know that my strength is not good, and I am afraid that I will drag Brother Zou back when the time comes. ”

Zou Sanfu laughed:

"It's really pleasant to talk to Brother Li, I don't believe that Brother Li's strength will be lower than mine, just look at the calluses on Brother Li's right hand and know that Brother Li is a strict and self-denying warrior. ”

Li Xuan smiled and didn't refute anymore, because that would be counterproductive, making people feel extremely hypocritical, the two talked for a while and began to rest, Li Xuan leaned against the tree and fell asleep, the sound of breathing became low, but his brain was very awake.

Slowly, a dark cloud obscured the bright moon, and the world became darker.
