The brown mountain stone was soaked in Lu Qingyu's blood, and as he staggered, it gradually merged into a bloody road, and Lu Qingyu dragged his sword to a stop on the gloomy Xuanqiao. The Xuanqiao is only made of a few wooden planks, and the interval between them is very large, even if an intact person wants to cross the Xuanqiao, he must have super light merit, and at this time, Lu Qingyu is already half covered in blood and bruises. And even more unfortunately, there is still a person standing at the head of the Xuanqiao Bridge - Lu Qingyu wants to ask someone who understands the most - his best friend of life and death - Haotian.

Haotian still had a cold smile on his face that Lu Qingyu had always been familiar with, but at this moment, this smile was extremely unfamiliar to Lu Qingyu, and it was full of all kinds of sins and evil spirits as if it came from hell, and there was no more hideous smile in the world.

"I knew I might not be able to kill you like that, so I waited here to deal with the aftermath! I've always been a good person. At this time, Haotian could still speak to Lu Qingyu in a very peaceful tone.

"Why?" Lu Qingyu forcibly endured the anger that was about to erupt in her chest, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible.

"Why? At this point, you're even asking me why. I really don't know if it's because you're reckless by nature, or if you're not familiar with the world at all, don't you even know that there is no word 'brother' in the Star Picking Tower? There was still some mockery in Haotian's eyes, as if he was laughing at Lu Qingyu's innocence and ignorance.

Haotian said again: "From the very beginning, I wanted to use you, because I always wanted to kill Bi You, but my strength was really not enough, so I tried every means to shape you into another person with the same ability as me, so that we can win by joining forces to kill Bi You." ”

Lu Qingyu said: "Why do we have to kill him?" ”

Haotian said: "Because he is the sworn enemy of the owner of the Star Picking Building, the owner of the building has long wanted to get rid of him." I remember that the landlord once said that if anyone kills Bi You, he can be the commander of the soldiers......"

Lu Qingyu said: "I won't hinder you, you can say that Bi You was killed by you alone." ”

Haotian shook his head and said, "Why don't you understand it until now?" You say, with my personality, how can I allow a person of equal ability to exist and threaten my position at all times? Don't you think that if I don't kill you now, I will simply live up to God's love for me? Haotian's fluttering eyes suddenly froze: "So for my glory, I can only sacrifice your life." A burst of sword qi swept towards Lu Qingyu's face, he just squinted again, Haotian's sword tip had already forced his throat bone, and he had the momentum of seeing blood sealing his throat, Lu Qingyu was naturally powerless to dodge, but he just put his palms together and clamped the sword piece, and the fierce smile in Haotian's eyes immediately vented, and the corners of his mouth were raised upward, only the winner would have such an expression. At the moment when his smile retracted, the ruthless sword end advanced a few inches further, and he saw a brilliant blood flower blooming on Lu Qingyu's neck, as if singing the last elegy for the end of life.

Lu Qingyu thought that he was dead, but it was precisely the person who was going to kill him, because the blood injection that came out of Haotian's chest had completely made him unable to smell the blood on his body, and the sword that pierced Haotian's chest was too weird and magical, not to mention that he didn't see and feel it, even Lu Qingyu, who was facing him, didn't know the origin of this sword at all, it seemed to be a demon sword descended from heaven in time, specifically killing the heinous people in this earthly world. It's really ironic that poor vicious young man Haotian who has exhausted all his calculations didn't even know who killed him before he died.

Lu Qingyu also fell, he was too seriously injured and too tired, and there seemed to be a deep voice in his ears in the coma: "I shouldn't have saved this kid, but that kid is too bad." Xiaoxue, look! I've saved people, it's time to go back! ”

"Master, no, he's so badly injured! If he doesn't heal his wounds, he'll die soon. "A voice like a silver bell, delicate and tactful." You girl! Alas——, I really can't help you. ”

When Lu Qingyu opened his eyes again, his vision was only pure white: white quilt bed tents, white walls and white ceilings, and the white girl who was anxiously looking at him in front of him. The girl was clearly only eight or nine years old, but she had snow-white hair, beautiful and holy, and there was no shadow in the girl's eyes. It was at the moment of contact with this girl's eyes that Lu Qingyu affirmed one thing - it turned out that there were still people in this world who were worthy of his trust. "Big brother, you finally woke up, so you can leave on your own, Master said that if you don't wake up today, I will throw you out, Xiaoxue is really worried!" The white girl said softly to Lu Qingyu.

"It turns out that your name is Xiaoxue,...... That's a name that deserves you! It was your master who saved me, right? Lu Qingyu only said these words, and he felt a little unlucky.

"Since it's okay, let me go quickly, I never leave outsiders in the Flying Snow Realm." Another voice came from the door of the room, it was the thick and sonorous male voice that Lu Qingyu heard in his coma.

Lu Qingyu saw that the person who came was waist-high silver, and his sword eyebrows were all white, but he maintained a forty-odd face, his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, as if he could see people through in the blink of an eye, and the corners of his mouth that were as thin as a sword added a certain kind of domineering contempt for the heroes, and the peaceful expression on his face just confirmed his otherworldly nature, and the white robe of Xi Shengxue on his body made him even more indifferent and quiet.

Lu Qingyu thought to herself: "The hellish place of the Star Picking Tower can't go back even if you die, but you still have to learn the ability, and you still have to take revenge, since this old man is so good, why don't you worship him as a teacher?" So he reverently smiled at the old man in white: "If I become your apprentice, I will naturally not be an outsider, and I can naturally stay in the Flying Snow Realm, right?" "Even the slightest movement will cause the pain of the wounds all over the body, but compared to learning peerless swordsmanship, this pain is nothing to Lu Qingyu. So he simply "plopped" and knelt in front of the old man in white.

"Bastard, when did I agree to take you as an apprentice, what a stinky boy with thicker skin than the city walls." Although the old man in white is over 100 years old, he is full of childlike nature.

"'Flying Snow Peerless Snow Immortal, the first sword in the world's martial arts'. Master, can't you even afford an apprentice like Big Brother with a name like yours? Xiaoxue was also on the side to help.

"Immortals, you should know that in this era, people who want to rely on the strength of others to survive are not qualified to decide where they belong." Lu Qingyu was afraid that the Snow Immortal would not accept him as an apprentice because of his previous identity as a killer, so he tried his best to clarify himself.

"It's not for this reason...... Snow Fairy looked embarrassed, in his eyes, Lu Qingyu read some emotions of cherishing talents, so he strengthened his determination to apprentice.

Lu Qingyu said: "Dare to ask the immortals, have I ever owed you any money that I haven't repaid?" ”

The snow fairy said: "Stinky boy, do you want to owe me money, but I'm afraid that my age is not enough?" ”

Lu Qingyu said: "Is that my father stole your things?" ”

The Snow Immortal said, "I haven't seen your father. ”

Lu Qingyu said: "That's my grandfather who robbed your woman?" ”

The Snow Fairy said angrily: "The more I talk, the more I don't like it, I, the Snow Fairy, am alone, where did I come from." ”

Lu Qingyu spread her arms and said, "Since there is no festival, why don't you accept me as an apprentice?" ”

"Because...... Alas——, go ahead! The Snow Fairy shook his sleeves and walked away.

Of course, Lu Qingyu will not give up, he has never been a person who will give up. After the trip to Dunhuang, he deeply understood the injustice and cruelty of this society, in the two years of being a killer in the Star Tower, he learned to think and calculate, speculate on people's hearts, and also deeply understood a truth - it is not easy to do anything in this world, such as living, and for example, repaying ** apprenticeship, apprenticeship may be more difficult, if worshipping as a teacher, then revenge is not so difficult. So he chose to kneel at the main entrance of this ice palace.

On the first day, the snow fairy came to see him: "Boy, why are you so stubborn? Even if you kneel to death, I will not take you as an apprentice. Lu Qingyu ignored it, and the snow fairy walked away. When the night came, the weather was even colder, and soon there was goose feather snow, Lu Qingyu only felt that the bearskin jacket on his body was no different from tissue paper at all, and the chill seeped directly from the pores to the bones, and the ice reached his heart. In the blink of an eye, ice slag will fall from his eyelashes, and he is afraid that he will freeze into a sculpture before long.

"Big brother, I'm here to bring you food." Xiaoxue ran over with a small basket. Lu Qingyu saw her as if she had met a savior. Who knew that all the wild fruits that Xiaoxue took out of the basket were some wild fruits in the forest, but they were all the best of the fruits, such as purple Linglong, white spirit fruit, jade dragon eye, Lu Qingyu had only heard of it. "That's what you usually eat?" Lu Qingyu was obviously disappointed, what he needed most now was two bowls of hot rice, and he could have no vegetables. "yes!" Xiaoxue replied crisply, "Master always eats these, and I occasionally catch a few fish from the glacier to eat." "Lu Qingyu is right, fairy! Of course, it doesn't eat fireworks in the world, if you smoke and burn in the kitchen every day, what kind of immortal will you be? Now I am lucky to have some fruit to eat, and I still have to save my life to fight the old man to the end. As soon as he picked up a fruit, he fell to the ground, and his hands were already frozen, and he couldn't even do the basic actions of catching.

"Oh my God!" Xiaoxue hurriedly held Lu Qingyu's hand in her hands and rubbed it, and kept sighing upwards: "Is it warmer?" ”

Lu Qingyu looked at Xiaoxue, and was a little moved for a while, no one has been so good to him for a long time, maybe there will be no more in the future. "Why are you so nice to me?" Lu Qingyu suddenly couldn't help but ask, "Well......" Xiaoxue thought for a while and said, "I'm also very good to Master!" Lu Qingyu shook her head helplessly after hearing this, and thought, "Maybe she is too young, this question is really difficult for her to answer." Sometimes being nice to a person doesn't need a reason. ”

The next day, the Snow Immortal said: "Because you are too angry, and you are the one who should be robbed, if you are taught peerless martial arts, it will be strange if you don't cause chaos in the world." ”

"I learned martial arts to heal this world, and this world is already sick. Since you refuse to teach me martial arts, I have to kneel for a long time. ”

After Lu Qingyu finished speaking, he knelt with his body strong.

"Stubborn boy, just kneel!" The snow fairy flicked the sleeves of his robe again and walked away. 

Day 3. 

"That kid is still on his knees?" The Snow Fairy said to Xiao Xuedao, who had just finished delivering food to Lu Qingyu.

"yes!" Xiaoxue nodded weakly.

"Go and tell him that I have changed my mind and decided to take him as an apprentice, and ask him to come in and learn quickly."

"Really, Master?" Xiaoxue is even happier than having become a teacher.

"If I don't take him as an apprentice again, I'm afraid that my little snow will freeze." The snow fairy took Xiaoxue into her arms with pity.

"So Master, you know everything......" Xiaoxue lowered her head.

"If you hadn't delivered food and quilts every night, the kid would have froze to death if he didn't starve to death. …… In fact, I am also very conflicted in my heart, knowing that I can't accept him as an apprentice, but I can't bear to give him this good martial arts training material, maybe it's God's will! He is destined to be the heir to the mantle of my snow fairy. ”

Five years later.

The inner hall of the Tianwei Dart Bureau.

"Boss, there is a big family to support the dart, willing to give this number!" Lu Xiaokun, who was wide in heart and fat, gestured to Long Zaitian.

"Fifty thousand taels?" The dragon is already in the mood for the day.

"It's 500,000 taels." Lu Xiaokun was so happy that he couldn't even talk about it.

"Is anyone else coming?" The dragon is in the heavenly rush road.

"Waiting in the lobby."

Long Zaitian strode into the hall, for fear of offending this great patron.

The person who came was dressed in plain white, extremely handsome, and gentle in his gestures, but he didn't look like he was very rich. The other is dressed in silent black, with a cold expression, and murderous aura surging in his eyes from time to time, looking like a person who walks the rivers and lakes at all, and he doesn't have any money.

Long Zaitian also knows the truth that people can't look good, and still greets him with a smile.

"I won't say anything polite, now I have a dart for you to help me transport it to the city lord of Dunhuang." The man in white got straight to the point.

"Dare to ask what kind of goods?"

The man in white did not answer him directly, but motioned for the man in black to open a boxy box, which was empty.

"I don't know what about your dart?" Long Zaitian thought that this house slave had lost the goods carelessly, and then he thought about what this small box could hold, a head was almost the same.

"My dart hasn't arrived yet." The man in white always speaks in the same tone.

"Dare to ask where Childe's dart is, we can take it for Childe and send it away directly, and we will never charge you extra silver."

"My dart is right in front of you."

"Where?" The dragon still looked around in the sky.

"It's around your neck."

“…… My head? Long Zaitian pointed to his nose and exclaimed, "Childe, are you kidding?" ”

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Who the hell are you?" Long Zaitian realized that the situation was wrong.

"Who is the former head of your current branch, Hongfu Dart Bureau?" The man in white slowly stood up from his seat, his murderous aura was enough to shock everyone around him.

Lu Xiaoqian...... Are you ......" Long Zaitian didn't have time to blurt out the words "Lu Qingyu", because before that, his head had left his neck and landed right in that box.

Lu Xiaokun could still laugh at this time, turned around and ran, but Lu Qingyu was already blocking the door.

"Second uncle, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come to harm?" Lu Qingyu looked at him coldly.

"Sunny and rainy, you ...... Don't kill me, I didn't kill your father,...... I didn't do anything. Lu Xiaokun hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Doing nothing is no better than doing everything. Greedy for life and afraid of death, persecuting one's own brother is unkind, and the wife of an adulterous brother is unjust, an unkind and unrighteous villain like you, killing you and I still dirty my sword? Lu Qingyu said.

"Yes...... I am an unkind villain. Lu Xiaokun lay on the ground like a dog, his whole body shrinking.

"Fan Jia, give him the box!" Fan Jia, the man in black, took the order, closed the box and handed it to Lu Xiaokun, who naturally took it without hesitation.

"Why don't you help me take this dart to Dunhuang! But I don't pay for the dart. Lu Qingyu picked up Lu Xiaokun's back placket and looked directly into the other party's eyes.

"The little one must live up to the high expectations, and the dart must be delivered." After a few perfunctory words, Lu Xiaokun crawled out with the box on the ground.

"I thought you'd kill them all!" Fan Jia stepped forward.

"Originally, I thought I could, but no matter how ruthless a person is, it seems that he can't kill his own relatives. No matter how he is, he is also my second uncle, and the other is the mother who gave birth to me and raised me, even if they are so wrong, I can't do the thing of killing my uncle and mother. Lu Qingyu said with deep emotion.

"Then do you think he will really go to Dunhuang?"

"Humph! Of course he wouldn't be going to Dunhuang, and if he was sincere to my mother, he would have taken her away from home, away from my sight. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so benevolent." Fan Jia patted Lu Qingyu's shoulder admiringly.

"There won't be such Lu Qingyu in the future." Lu Qingyu's fluttering eyes suddenly condensed, "Tomorrow the Hongfu Dart Bureau will be empty, we can be stationed there, and then use the Hongfu Dart Bureau as a base to expand our power." ”

"And what's next?"

"Broken Knife Qi Yan."
