Four days later, a young man with three swords, led a slightly lame white horse, out of the primeval jungle in the westernmost part of Sanchuan Province, and arrived at the county town of Anya in the far west of Sanchuan Province.

"Finally got to a place where there were people. ”

Fifth, Tingyun looked at the towering walls of Anya County and muttered quietly. According to his memory, Sanchuan Province and Jialing Province are adjacent provinces, and as long as you cross Sanchuan Province all the way east, you can reach Jialing Province. After four days of going around in the primeval jungle, the "primitive life" of heaven and earth as a bed has finally come to an end.

He disguised himself a little with dirt and grass, then left his horse in the jungle and blended himself into the crowd of the avenue towards the gates of the county town of Anya. When he came to the city gate, he looked at the bulletin boards on both sides of the city gate, and found no expected wanted notices.

"Twenty rules for the citizens of the city. ”

"Explanation of the taxation of the county town of Anya. ”

"Wanted: There is a nest of thieves, the number of people is unknown, please pay attention to your own money and ...... people entering the city"

“......”

After taking a quick look at all the notices posted on both sides of the gate, and making sure that there were no wanted notices for him, he returned to the jungle and led the lame horse out of the city, and swaggered into the city. When he passed the city gates, the soldiers were still yawning, not paying any attention to the people entering the city.

"No, has my 'red notice' warrant been revoked?"

The fifth Tingyun wondered as he walked towards the city.

"It shouldn't be, could it be that there was a big fuss in Tianmen, but the Criminal Department removed my wanted warrant? Damn, why did you go to the Heavenly Palace of Beidong, and everything was weird after returning to China?"

He couldn't care so much, he temporarily put aside the worries in his heart, found the market in the city, and first sold a lot of animal skins and beast armor that he had obtained in the primeval jungle in the past few days. Then he used the copper coins to buy a set of clothes, bought some dry food that could be stored for a long time, and after doing this, he led the cripple through the county town of Anya and headed straight to the east.

In the next few days, with the strength of the lame horse's feet, he quickly passed through most of Sanchuan Province, and came down to seven or eight county towns, and he didn't even find any wanted warrants about him, which made him faintly feel that the rumors of the turmoil in Jialing Tianmen City had passed.

It took seven days for the Fifth Tingyun to finally cross Sanchuan Province and come to the junction of Sanchuan and Jialing. There are only about four days left before the entrance exam, and after a rough calculation, at the current speed of the lame three horses, it should not be a problem to rush back to the fifth city.

However, just as he entered the border of Jialing Province, something unexpected happened, and outside the gate of Changtong County, the westernmost part of Jialing Province, a red notice for the fifth hearing of the cloud was prominently posted! Fortunately, when he entered the city, the soldiers guarding and patrolling the city were not very attentive, so he mixed in the crowd and entered the city.

With the first wanted warrant in place, he became extra cautious for the next few days, preferring to detour through the jungle outside the city once he found that the county town was heavily guarded. Three days later, he finally infiltrated Yuyang County, and in the evening, he decided not to return to Nanshu Academy, but to walk towards the periphery of Nanshu Mountain.

"It seems that I am still a wanted criminal in Jialing Province, but the wanted warrant for other provinces has been withdrawn. But look at those soldiers guarding the city, I've been here for so long, and they have long since relaxed their vigilance, otherwise I wouldn't have come back so easily. Early tomorrow morning, I have to rush back to Nanshu Academy as soon as possible, the wanted warrant from the Criminal Department is still there, then only the School Department is safe......"

As the thoughts in my heart turned sharply, a man and a horse came to a small wooden house.

This is the place where the fifth Tingyun lived with Bai Yibing and Bai Jie's grandson for a month when he was training in Nanshu Mountain.

"Squeak. ”

Fifth, Tingyun pushed open the wooden door that had accumulated some dust, groped for the wooden table in the middle of the room according to his memory, found the pine oil lamp and flint placed on the table, and lit the lamp first. The wick still works, but the bowl is covered with dust, and the thatch on many roofs has fallen.

Looking around, some of the corners of the walls were already covered with cobwebs. It's only been more than a month that no one has taken care of it, but I didn't expect this place to be abandoned like this, and time is really the most ruthless.

He cleaned up briefly, then lit a torch, went to the inner room to find a jar of wine buried under the wall, and when he dug it out, he went out with the jar in his left hand and came to the hut.

Next to the wooden house was a grave with some grass on its head.

He put the torch on the ground, sat directly on the ground, patted the mud seal on the wine jar, and suddenly a smell of wine wafted out.

At some point, he stopped drinking tea and began to drink.

More than ten days ago, he stood in front of Xu Hu's tomb for one night, and that night, he didn't know what he was thinking, only that he was standing there, and then it was dawn very quickly. After dawn, he did not return to the Tiger Camp, nor did he say goodbye to Li Tingcheng, he knew his identity very well, he was destined to be a person from two worlds, and it didn't matter if he said goodbye or not.

Today, he seems to want to sit here for another night.

Lifting the jar, he poured some wine on the ground in front of him, and then lifted the jar and poured two sips of himself. The wine was still as spicy as ever, but he seemed to be used to it, thinking about the predicament he was in when he drank for the first time, compared with the way he drank like drinking water now, he had to sigh that some people's growth was really visible.

With self-blame, with resentment, with confusion, with firmness, with confidence, he returned, and the first moment he came back, he came here to pay tribute to Bai Yibing.

......

......

The forest wind blows, and the surrounding leaves rustle.

When the fifth listener wakes up and rises from the ground, the sun has already risen overhead.

Looking at the torch that had long been extinguished beside him, and looking at the wine jar on the other side that was upside down on the ground, he shook his head vigorously, and then he was much more sober. After entering the house and finding a hoe and sickle, and helping Bai Yibing clean up the weeds in front of and behind the tomb, he rode away without looking back.

Nanshu Mountain is still the original Nanshu Mountain.

But the fifth Tingyun is no longer the weak and incompetent waste young master he used to be.

In the past few months, it has definitely been an important turning point in the life of the fifth Tingyun, whether it is in terms of heart or martial arts cultivation, he has made a lot of progress. And in his long journey of life, he has already taken the first difficult step.

Yuzhong Jiaqing College, Tianmen Li Mansion, Southwest Border Southern Empire, Beidong Heavenly Palace, Yimen Empire, Songyangzi ...... These places and forces have created obstacles that cannot be ignored in his progress, but with his own hard work, hard work, unyielding, and some luck, he defeated these obstacles one by one, and stepped on them all as stepping stones.

In less than two months, he went from the Quenching Body Realm to the Fifth Heaven of the Nayuan Realm, and this speed was already amazing. Although he still has a gap compared to his peers, even his younger brother Fifth Tingfeng is currently above him, but he is not in a hurry.

He always believed that he was just a late starter!
