In the summer of 1996, I was sixteen years old.

From October 1993 to August 1996, it can be said that this period of time was the most leisurely time in my life. In the morning, I stood on a gun pile in the courtyard to practice the art of military cultivation, in the afternoon I looked through the "Nine Character Urn" left to me by my master to learn the art of the Tao of Dark Money, and in the evening I wandered around with Brother Long, or drank and smoked, bragged and farted, and had a lot of fun. In his spare time, he also forced me to learn scientific and cultural knowledge, saying that a Taoist priest who does not understand science is not a good Taoist priest.

This strange theory made me speechless, but I could only do it.

Every half a month, he would give me a day off, and he would usually go missing, while I would go to Harbin City. Central Street, Xiangfang Nangang, and Songhua River have all left a lot of footprints for me......

The relationship with Brother Long, who is also a teacher and friend, actually makes it easier for me to become involved in some of his behavioral habits. Coupled with the arrival of puberty, it has become a bit bohemian as a result. On weekdays, as soon as I quarrel with Brother Long, I will do it immediately, and I naturally can't beat him, but sometimes the use of the Dark Money Technique can also give him a headache.

It was also because of learning the art of military cultivation that my body changed from the thinness before the age of thirteen and began to grow by leaps and bounds. As you grow taller, you get stronger. The size has jumped to 1.8 meters, and the tendons and flesh of the whole body are lurking under the skin, ready to exert explosive power. Although the martial arts qi and blood can't easily kill the ghosts and ghosts, it is no problem to injure and intimidate.

In terms of appearance, the originally fair skin has become darker, and the five scratches on the left side of the face have begun to gradually fade and become lighter and thinner. This is a happy discovery, because these five scratches are the scars in my heart, and it would be great if they could disappear!

I originally thought that the ten-year period in Brother Long's mouth would go on so smoothly, and then when my Dao skills reached a sufficient level, I would go back to Sichuan, go to the master, and ask Qin Ren face to face why he suddenly turned his face in the first place.

But that's what life is. God seems to look down on people, and if you think this kind of life is not bad, then it will definitely break it. The second turning point in my life is coming soon......

At that time, since I had lived in Harbin for almost four years, I naturally met some friends of the same age. One of them has a good relationship, called Zhang Tian.

Zhang Tianye's family lives in a bungalow area, but it is about two or three kilometers away from my and Brother Long's residences. So when I have free time on weekdays or when I am resting, I run directly to his house to play, or go out with him, and the relationship between the two is very good.

One day, Brother Long went out as usual and didn't know where to go. He is profound, and there is almost no great danger, plus I have always felt that everyone can have a little bit of their own secrets, so I didn't ask where Brother Long disappeared every half a month, of course, I guess I won't say it if I ask him, maybe he will be beaten up.

In short, Brother Long went out, so I went to play with Zhang Tian. Zhang Tian's academic performance is not very good, but his family is rich, and he belongs to the group of people who got rich first after the reform and opening up, and his parents did not force him to go to school, and he played and fooled around at home every day.

The distance of two or three kilometers is a small amount for me, and I can just run and run to get there. Along the way, we also passed the legendary Unit 731 of the Japanese invasion of China. I believe that this notorious thing is also known to everyone, and it is the place where little Japan conducts terrorist bacteriological experiments on Chinese and Russians.

Zhang Tian's home was not far from the former site of the 731 bacteriological unit, and he arrived soon after that. His house is also a small courtyard, but it is much more refined than the one where Brother Long and I live.

I stood at the door of his house and knocked vigorously: "Zhang Tian, open the door quickly, let's go out to play?" ”

Zhang Tian's parents are usually not at home during the day, and they have to work and socialize outside, and they only come home late. So I don't have to worry about it being rude to knock on the door like this, anyway, I am a fifteen or sixteen-year-old peer, and I am more rude and direct.

It stands to reason that not long after I knocked on the door, he would shout "Lao Tzu is coming" and then quickly run to open the door for me. But today I knocked on the door for a long time and he didn't come to open the door, which made me feel a little weird, could it be that Zhang Tian was not at home? Did this guy run out to play alone? Didn't you say last time that you would wait for me today?

I was a little upset, and I wanted to go straight in, but it was rude to think that this was a good friend's house after all. So he was ready to turn around and leave, and went to Harbin city to play alone. Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I heard a creak behind me, and the door actually opened.

Zhang Tian appeared at the door wrapped in a quilt, his face was pale, his lips did not have a trace of blood, and his body was constantly shaking. He said with a trembling voice: "Jiang, Jiang Ming, you are here, come in." ”

Seeing his strange appearance, my heart moved inexplicably, and a sense of vigilance rose. I asked him, Zhang Tian, what's wrong with you? It can't be a cold, right?

He shook his head and told me to come in quickly. I thought to myself, let's go and see it first, it's a little strange for Zhang Tian to be like this.

I went into the house with him, sat down in the living room, sat down on the sofa, and threw me a bag of snacks: "Oh, your favorite snacks." ”

I felt more and more strange, and my expression gradually became serious: "Zhang Tian, what's the matter with you?" We're not going out to play today, do you have a bad cold? ”

He shook his head: "No, no. It's just that I feel uncomfortable, I feel scared. Jiang Ming, can you stay with me for a while tonight, and then leave when my parents come back? ”

Zhang Tian's abnormal behavior made my doubts thicker, so I closed my eyes and used my spiritual sense to sense.

Really! As I guessed, I actually felt a ghostly aura on Zhang Tian's body, eerie, surrounding him one by one, making him mentally tired and terrified all the time. No wonder it's like this, this is obviously a powerful ghost thing, I haven't seen such a powerful ghost thing for a long time.

I opened my eyes suddenly: "Zhang Tian, did you go somewhere you shouldn't be and hit something dirty?" ”

Zhang Tian was about to pick up a bag of snacks to eat, but when he suddenly heard me speak so loudly, his face suddenly showed shock, and the snacks in his hand fell to the ground: "You...... How do you know? How do you know that I came across ...... Got something like that? ”

As he spoke, he looked around the walls left and right, looking cautious.

Without saying a word, I strode forward, grabbing his right wrist without saying a word. A surge of spiritual power in the dantian urged the blood in the body to accelerate circulation, and when it became hot, the qi and blood were vigorous. Suddenly, a ball of flame-like qi and blood surged out, the size of a fist, and entered Zhang Tian's body along my hand.

With a bang, countless cold black ghost qi was forced out of his body, and then it burned again, burning all the black qi around his body.

That's right, in the past four years, I have made certain achievements in standing on the gun pile every day and learning the art of military cultivation. At least it's okay to burn the remaining ghost qi with masculine blood. Of course, all this Zhang Tian's eyes couldn't see, he just felt that I was holding his wrist, and then his body was hot, and suddenly that cold feeling dissipated.

Letting go of his hand and taking a few steps back, Zhang Tian's face in front of him gradually became bloody, he seemed to recover quickly, and he looked at me in surprise: "This ...... What's going on? Jiang Ming, what did you do to me? You, are you a master of magic? ”

I smiled and nodded, "You don't care about this." Tell me, what the hell is going on with you? What did you hit you? ”

Zhang Tian is not the kind of person who grinds, firstly, he has a good relationship with me, and secondly, he has a businessman who also knows how to get along with people. Seeing that I didn't want to discuss this topic and dwelled on it, I just nodded: "Okay, I didn't want to talk about it." But I didn't expect you kid to be a master. You've been hiding it from me for the past four years, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense everywhere, I know people like you like to keep a low profile, but you're not a brother enough! Actually, I didn't go to any hellish places I shouldn't go. I did see that kind of thing, right in my house, and there were quite a few of them, in droves! ”
