He Jiutian was furious at this time, although he had guessed early on that Lin Hai would send someone to hunt him down, but he didn't expect that it was actually a king-level late-stage monk, and this must have been the man sent by Lin Hai's backer in the main building. Thinking about Lin Hai, and then thinking about his backer, He Jiutian's heart was like ashes, and the trace of guilt that he should have for the Demon Beast Building also dissipated without a trace.

The four of them fought for less than a while, and they followed He Jiutian's offering before being pierced through the chest by a spear from the gray-robed man.

He Jiutian's eyes were about to split, and his spiritual power flowed, hitting all his spiritual power on the long sword, and slashed at one of the gray-robed people.

The long sword was covered with spiritual power, and the moment it was cut down, it brought a whirlwind of spiritual power, and the powerful spiritual pressure made the surrounding branches break a lot.

The gray-robed man's eyes flashed, and he also used his spiritual power to slash towards He Jiutian.

Rumble......

At the center of the battle between the two, a deafening sound was heard, and in an instant, smoke and dust filled the air, and strong winds dispersed in all directions.

He Jiutian is only the strength of the mid-king level, although he is only one line behind the gray-robed man, but in actual combat, the strength of this line may be able to kill him.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and He Jiutian was lying in a big pit, the long sword in his hand had been broken, and there was a long sword wound on his chest, from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.

Two gray-robed people stood in front of He Jiutian, and one of the gray-robed people said softly: "Master He, you and I are both people from the Demon Beast Building, and we shouldn't kill each other, but this is an order from above, I'm sorry." ”

After speaking, the gray-robed man raised the long sword in his hand and was about to stab down, but at this moment, the gray-robed man suddenly swung his sword and slashed to the right, and out of nowhere, a black triangular magic weapon.

Bite......

A golden sound sounded, the long sword in the gray-robed man's hand broke instantly, and the other gray-robed man reacted very quickly, the spear in his hand was handed out, and with a twist of his right hand, the spear hit the triangular magic weapon, slightly changing the direction of the magic weapon.

The two of them quickly left the place, retreated a few meters and stared nervously at the depths of the dense forest, the gray-robed man who used the long sword was drenched in a cold sweat at this time, if it wasn't for his companion's timely action just now, he would have been pierced by the triangular magic weapon now.

"Hurry, quick response. ”

With a burst of laughter, a person shrouded in black robes and exuding bursts of demonic energy slowly walked out of the dense forest. Only then did the gray-robed man see clearly the magic weapon that had attacked him just now, it was a palm-sized triangular magic weapon, like a shuttle, followed by a long chain, the chain was wrapped around the black-robed man's arm, and the end of the chain was dragged by the black-robed man's hand.

The gray-robed people glanced at each other, and they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and at the same time whispered, "Demon Dao Emperor-level master." ”

The black-robed man kept smiling, slowly walked to He Jiutian's side, and asked, "How is it?"

He Jiutian took out the pill and took it, reluctantly stood up, and said, "I can't die." ”

Then the black-robed man looked at the gray-robed man and said, "Come, the old man will play with you." ”

The gray-robed man glanced at each other, and then quickly retreated, much faster than when he was chasing He Jiutian.

The black-robed man let out a rude laugh again, and with a wave of the iron chain in his hand, the three-edged magic weapon went straight to the two of them, and the black-robed man said at the same time: "Jiji, the old man didn't speak, he actually dared to leave, this is not to give me face." ”

......

Linshui Town, this is a very prosperous town, here is backed by continuous mountains, a big river flows in front, the people in the town live and work in peace and contentment, not only food is sufficient, but also because the Zhou family opened a free school in the town, almost everyone here can read and write, and the local residents are also very respectful to the Zhou family.

This kind of respect comes from the heart, not because the Zhou family is a cultivation family, and all the residents here have more or less been helped by the Zhou family, and the Zhou family does not think highly of themselves like other cultivation families, they live in harmony with ordinary people, and there is no condescending posture, which is also one of the reasons why the residents of Linshui Town respect the Zhou family.

After Li Fugui saw the Tao Te Ching in the books presented by the Zhou family, he was very eager to know if Lao Tzu had been to the Reiki Continent, and Proton also said that the Zhou family might know about Ziyuan.

So after Li Fugui dealt with the matter of the Demon Beast Building, he asked Li Yi to return to Tianshui City with the defensive spirit weapon taken for Jiang Tianci, originally Li Fugui planned to let the Red Eye Spirit Ape return to the Demon Beast Forest by himself, but the Red Eye Spirit Ape didn't know what to think, he must follow Li Fugui, and the starling brother also asked Li Fugui to take the Red Eye Spirit Ape, Li Fugui had no choice but to let the Red Eye Spirit Ape follow.

The two of them and the two demon beasts hurried all the way to Linshui, but after half a day's effort, they had already arrived at Linshui Town.

Li Fugui did not have the leisure to enjoy the landscape, and went straight to the Zhou family's mansion, the Zhou family's mansion was easy to find, Li Fugui just casually found a passer-by to ask for directions, that person heard that Li Fugui was going to Zhou's house, and was very enthusiastic to show Li Fugui and them the way.

Originally, Li Fugui disliked him for walking slowly, and after wanting to ask clearly, he and others hurried over, but the man insisted on leading Li Fugui the way, and Li Fugui had no choice but to agree.

The one who led the way was a middle-aged man, although he was dressed as a farmer, but his speech and demeanor were very decent, and he did not have the sense of restraint that ordinary people had when they saw cultivators, but kept introducing Li Fugui to the customs of Linshui Town, as well as how the Zhou family was good.

Li Fugui originally thought that the Zhou family, like the Qi family, would build their own mansion outside the town, but when the middle-aged man walked into the town with Li Fugui, Li Fugui realized that the Zhou family was really different from other cultivation families.

When Li Fugui came to the Zhou family's mansion, he saw that Zhou Baichuan had already led someone to greet him outside the door, and he was slightly surprised, and Li Fugui hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Li Fugui had the impulse to immediately ask about the origin of the Tao Te Ching, and exchanged pleasantries with Zhou Baichuan, and then Zhou Baichuan took Li Fugui into the mansion.

After entering the living room, Zhou Baichuan said: "Li Gongzi, please ask a few of your friends to be here later, my father wants to see you in person." ”

When Liu Jin heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to say something, after all, Li Fugui came to the Zhou family for the first time, and he was not so good with the Zhou family.

And the most important thing is that Li Fugui is now worth a lot of money, and he has a lot of treasures, and almost all well-informed families know that Li Fugui has an ancient puppet. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, if the king of the Zhou family eats the scales and is determined to rob Li Fugui of the ancient puppet, Li Fugui will definitely not be able to cope with it alone.

Li Fugui gave Liu Jin a reassuring look, and then said to Zhou Baichuan: "Please Zhou Daoyou lead the way." ”

After Zhou Baichuan ordered someone to entertain Liu Jin, he turned around and walked to the back of the living room with Li Fugui.

The old lady of the Zhou family is called Zhou Heng, and she is in the middle of the royal level, and after Zhou Baichuan saw Li Fugui last time, he came back and reported Li Fugui's words and deeds to Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng was shocked at that time, Zi Yuan, this taboo was actually mentioned by Li Fugui, and he also specifically asked Zhou Baichuan about Zi Yuan's information.

Zhou Heng's first thought at that time was that the three empires had begun to purge again, and at this critical moment when the prophetic poem was transmitted from the Wentian Pavilion. However, after thinking about it, Zhou Heng felt that something was wrong, and he secretly inquired about several cultivation families, but none of them encountered such a thing, so he began to suspect Li Fugui's identity.

Originally, Zhou Heng asked Zhou Baichuan to invite Li Fugui to come to Linshui for the first time, but after the auction, Li Fugui had a conflict with the Demon Beast Building, and Zhou Baichuan did not invite Li Fugui.

So after hearing that Li Fugui came to Linshui, Zhou Heng directly asked Zhou Baichuan to take Li Fugui to the back hall to see him, without the slightest greeting, let alone etiquette, and asked Li Fugui to meet him alone.

Zhou Baichuan took Li Fugui to a room, knocked on the door gently, then pushed the door open, made a gesture of please, and motioned for Li Fugui to go in.

Although Li Fugui was puzzled, the proton gave him a sense of security, so Li Fugui was not polite and walked straight into the room. After Zhou Baichuan waited for Li Fugui to enter, he gently closed the door and stood guard outside.

After Li Fugui entered the door, he saw an old man with gray hair, sitting cross-legged on a futon, the old man's breath was long, his breathing was strong, he looked like he was only fifty or sixty, his long hair was pulled into a bun, and he was wearing a white gown on his body, which looked particularly dusty.

When Li Fugui looked at Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng was also looking at Li Fugui, Li Fugui's first feeling to Zhou Heng was simple, and the second feeling was youth. He never thought that the initiator who turned Drifting Cloud City upside down was such a young person.

Just as Zhou Heng was about to continue to look at Li Fugui, a burst of white light suddenly appeared on Li Fugui's chest, and then the proton suddenly flew out and levitated in front of Li Fugui.

Zhou Heng originally looked like an old dragon clock, but the moment he saw the proton, his pupils contracted suddenly, and the whole person stood up at dusk. The expression on his face became extremely exaggerated, first in surprise, then in a few breaths, then in shock, then into ecstasy and sadness.

Li Fugui looked at the proton in a daze, unable to figure out why the proton suddenly appeared, and then he saw Zhou Heng's strange appearance, but Li Fugui couldn't control the proton, so he could only look at the proton and Zhou Heng in confusion.

Zhou Heng trembled his hands and slowly walked into the proton, wanting to hold it in his hand, but he seemed to be very scared and didn't dare to touch it, and sad and tangled expressions kept appearing on Zhou Heng's face.

After a few breaths, Zhou Heng seemed to have made up his mind, stretched out his hand, and lightly touched the proton.

At the moment of touching, Zhou Heng was extremely excited, and two lines of tears slowly remained.

Li Fugui looked at the old man in front of him who was crying, he didn't know what was going on, and his eyes were full of doubts.

It took Zhou Heng several breaths to confirm that the proton was real, and then he knelt down suddenly, kowtowed to the proton three times, and shouted: "Ziyuan Inner Gate, Ye Zhou, a member of the Ye family, Ye Heng, a descendant of the lineage, meet, Lord Envoy." ”

Zhou Heng's voice was very loud, although there was a slight trembling and crying, but it was very firm.

Li Fugui stared at Zhou Heng who was subdued on the ground, and his mouth was wide open.
