Chapter 4 Comrades are mortals

"It's a total of five iron coins, you take it!"

"Thank you. You Xuanhao took a bag full of hot buns, feeling a little satisfied.

After driving for so long, I finally stopped eating dry food. However, there are only a dozen copper coins on his body, and he can't save a few dollars by finding a few families to stay in the wilderness! There are still nearly 100 miles to reach the imperial capital, and he must earn enough money these days.

I have to mention that You Xuanhao spent an unforgettable Spring Festival at a butcher's home. For him, being able to eat a meal of five dishes and one soup is already grateful.

He was eating fragrant meat buns, thinking about finding a place to stay for a while, when he suddenly heard a louder and louder quarrel not far behind.

"I said I didn't take anything from your store!"

"You think I'm stupid! You have the spiritual power fluctuation of my treasure, if you steal a bad point, I won't be able to find out, but you want to steal the treasure of my store, and you still expect me to catch it?!" a shiny boss stood at the door of the store and shouted.

The brown-haired boy looked aggrieved and helpless, looking at the disdainful gazes of passers-by, and became more and more anxious.

"That'...... I'll show you this, and if you're going to blame me, I can't do it anymore. The boy approached the bald boss and pulled out a badge from his pocket, revealing a corner.

The boss looked at it fixedly, and was so frightened that he took three steps back.

"Right...... I'm sorry, it's your fault!"

You Xuanhao smiled, it turned out that it was the son of a big family who oppressed the common people.

The brown-haired boy put away his badge, exhaled a long breath, and secretly stuffed a few copper coins into the bald boss's pocket, and quickly broke away from the crowd. He was speeding up his walk, when suddenly a man rushed out of nowhere and blocked the boy's way.

"I said, this brother, if you have money, you can do whatever you want. "In front of the young man was You Xuanhao, who had just come to Xuanbing City.

"Oh, are you?" the brown-haired boy froze in place.

"I see that you like this kind of identity of the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people - let me introduce myself, my name is You Xuanhao, I am a poor generation, one generation higher than the second generation, hello nephew!"

The brown-haired young man looked at this handsome guy with blond hair and blue eyes in surprise, and hesitated: "Eh, your name is Ye Rui, brother, you must have recognized the wrong person." I'm not a second-generation official or a rich second-generation, so please be sure to speak with respect. ”

"So, Brother Ye Rui, what is the explanation for the theft just now?"

The brown-haired boy patted his head and secretly said that it was not good, there was a chivalrous man!

"I said that this thing was originally our family, do you believe it or not?"

"Then if I say that this thing you stole is mine, will you give it or not?" You Xuanhao said with a smile.

"Hahahaha, Brother You is really interesting, but it's a pity that this thing is really mine, if you don't believe it, it's none of my business. ”

"Oh, the people who are entangled by my You Xuanhao are not so easy to escape. You Xuanhao said.

Ye Rui smiled slightly: "That's it, if Brother You wants to know what this treasure is and what its origin is, come to Caesar's Arena to duel with me, and if you win, I'll tell you." ”

"Didn't you give it to me...... It's stingy. ”

β€œ......”

"Okay, you can take me to that arena right now. You Xuanhao said casually.

Ye Rui also became excited: "If you want, you can, just my goal of winning fifty consecutive victories is just this one." ”

"I'm really embarrassed to make you give up your goal for me. ”

As the two spoke, they soon arrived at the arena of Xuan Ice City, the Caesar Arena.

It was the first time for You Xuanhao to come to such a high-level place. The Celepin Empire does not have many arenas, and like other countries, it is divided into three star levels: one, two, and three, with the higher the star arena, the more advanced the arena, while the Yangon Empire has the only four-star arena on the continent. The purpose of You Xuanhao's trip is to go to Xindu to develop, become a formal soul mage, and then make plans, and now experience it in the Caesar One-Star Arena, which is also a good thing for future development.

At the front desk of the arena, the graceful service staff flipped through the old small book on the counter, and soon found Ye Rui's pseudonym on it.

"Ye Rakshasa, forty-nine victories, zero losses, the only player in the bronze division so far who has maintained more than thirty consecutive victories, and one more victory will get a gold coin bonus, are you sure you want to play the next match with this newly registered Mr. 'Sea King Force'?"

"Sure. Ye Rui didn't know how to complain about You Xuanhao's pseudonym at all. I really don't know what kind of strange person can come up with such an tasteless name.

"The game will be held in a quarter of an hour, Lord Ye Luosha, please come on next!" The front desk staff smiled, and actually threw a wink at Ye Rui.

You Xuanhao slapped Ye Rui's shoulder hard: "Boy, you are very popular with girls, believe it or not, after twenty minutes, that girl just flattered me." ”

Ye Rui didn't make a sound, and nodded with a smile.

Twenty minutes later......

"Lord Ye Rakshasa, congratulations on completing your fifty-game winning streak, this is a gold coin, thank you for your wonderful performance, adding a lot of life to the arena. As he spoke, the front desk staff handed over the gold coin to Ye Rui, and did not forget to secretly send him an autumn wave.

Ye Rui was a little embarrassed and took half a step back.

"Hey, are you serious about taking half a step back, if I just go upstairs, hey. You Xuanhao whispered behind Ye Rui.

Ye Rui was embarrassed: "Miss Qin, this is my last game in Caesar, thank you for your care these days, Ye may not come again in the future." After saying that, he clasped his fists and saluted, and walked out of the arena with You Xuanhao quickly.

"You just abandoned other people's girls?" You Xuanhao said with a smile.

"I never thought about her, and I didn't want to have anything to do with her. Ye Rui said, "She will meet a more suitable person." Anyway, Brother You, why do you want to release the water? Just now my vines were blocked by you, and it only takes half a second for you to finish me, why ......?"

"It's a gold coin. I'm still waiting for you to dinner. You Xuanhao said, secretly saying in his heart, if I want to win you, let a black snake come out, I don't believe that it will bite you.

"That's it?"

"That's all. ”

"Hahaha, Brother You is such an interesting person. I'll have lunch today. I won't hide it from you, the treasure of that store was once treasured by my family, and I wanted to give it to Emperor Xuanshuang a few years ago, but it was stolen on the way, so it is bound to be taken back. As for his identity, please don't guess it. ”

You Xuanhao laughed: "Brother Ye Rui, you are funny, I just came to scare and scare you, and I didn't ask you to tell the truth." But I'm also curious, what is so precious that thieves can covet it, and forcibly steal it regardless of the royal guards, can Brother Ye give me a look?"

Seeing that You Xuanhao had such a true temperament, Ye Rui relaxed his guard and took out a ball of coarse cloth wrapped in something from his pocket.

The coarse cloth was opened, revealing the treasure inside.

"It's ...... Tourmaline?" You Xuanhao exclaimed, it was the first time he had seen such a large tourmaline with powerful spiritual power fluctuations and extremely pureβ€”of course, the last time he saw tourmaline was seven years ago, and he had seen it a few times when the family held a sacrifice. However, You Xuanhao was well-read when he was a child, and he had seen many colorful treasure albums, and his memory was amazing, so he could recognize it at once.

Ye Rui was surprised by this poor and sour looking guy, this guy didn't look like a person who could know tourmaline at all!

"Yes, it's tourmaline, but it's not your average tourmaline. This thing is the dragon emperor tourmaline that has been bred in the dragon's lair for 10,000 years, the boss doesn't know the goods, and the treasure of the town store only sells fifteen spirit crystals, it stands to reason that this thing is not expensive with a hundred spirit crystals, and it may not be able to buy it. Ye Rui said with some pride. One hundred spirit crystals, but it is 100,000 copper coins, which is an astronomical amount in the eyes of almost anyone!

"Then isn't your family suffering heavy losses? But I see that you are like this, and you don't have the pitiful appearance of your family. ”

"Even so, it's not enough to shake my family's position. ”

You Xuanhao was shocked when he heard this. What kind of nouveau riche did he meet? So he changed the topic: "Brother Ye, is there really a dragon in this world?"

"That's nature! Now there is still a head imprisoned in the forbidden place of the Doumu Imperial Palace! It is said that it is the whole body of ink, and the mouth spits out human words, and the breath can change the color of heaven and earth!"

You Xuanhao was curious, but he didn't want to ask anything, so he didn't say much.

The dragon emperor tourmaline has a bright white in the middle, but it is an obvious cat's eye effect, and at first glance it looks like a dragon's eyeball. The powerful spiritual power contained in it, mixed with a trace of unconsciously trembling kingly aura, really does not seem to be artificially imported.

Ye Rui quickly put away the Dragon Emperor tourmaline, after all, the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty.

"Where is Brother Ye going now?" You Xuanhao felt a little pity, seeing such a good gem, but he missed it because he was not a villain - if he set this Dragon Emperor tourmaline on the rusty sword, I am afraid that he will have a peerless divine weapon. Thinking that Ye Rui would definitely not stay here for a long time, and I was afraid that he would never have the opportunity to see such a treasure in the future, You Xuanhao was a little stunned.

"I'm nowhere to go...... Originally, I was going to leave Xuanbing City after winning fifty games, but I didn't expect to feel the familiar breath of the Dragon Emperor Tourmaline, so I was half a day late, I was scheduled to go to Xindu today, but I didn't know where to do it. ”

You Xuanhao was overjoyed: "Why don't you come with me and go to the Soul Dao Palace in Xindu?" It is the holy place of the soul mages of the Heavenly Ice Empire, one of the four major halls of the Soul Dao Palace, and it is the best gathering place for soul mages except for the headquarters of the Yangon Empire, where any soul mage can become powerful!"

Ye Rui nodded after hearing this, and said, "It's okay, the imperial capital of the Heavenly Ice Empire...... It just so happens that I've been stuck at level 39 for a while, and if I train in the Soul Dao Palace, it should be easy to break through the bottleneck and enter the level of the second major sect. ”

"However, can you tell me first, how did you steal the treasure of the town store in someone else's store? It stands to reason that this thing should be very valued by the shopkeeper, how can it be stolen by you so easily?" This question arose when You Xuanhao first heard the shopkeeper and Ye Rui arguing.

Ye Rui smiled, his face full of pride: "You also saw it when you fought just now." The first is the third soul technique, paralysis, which has the effect of paralyzing the five senses, and has a chance to paralyze brain perception for five seconds, and then the second soul technique, the vine, which I easily controlled the vine to steal the gem. ”

"Damn, it's so simple and rude, I thought you had some ulterior forbidden art. You Xuanhao said.

After finding a place to settle down, the two began their own cultivation, and after a full meal at noon, they didn't go out to buy something to eat until they were hungry in the middle of the night. The next day, the two did not hesitate to march towards Xindu.

......

TechnoAlpin Empire, Xindu.

At this time, You Xuanhao and Ye Rui were staying in one of the most inconspicuous inns in Xindu, carrying out a secret work.

"Listen, Brother Ye, this matter is about my life and death, so if you want, please use blood as a guide and sign an agreement with me. You Xuanhao grabbed Ye Rui's hand tightly, his face full of seriousness.

"Brother You, don't worry, I'...... Willing. Ye Rui thought about it for a while, it was very challenging to train with this scheming, and the cultivation methods that this guy talked about along the way were very subtle, which showed that he was serious about his cultivation. Indeed, although You Xuanhao is playful, he is engrossed in every time he cultivates, if it weren't for the mutual trust between the two during this time, with Ye Rui guarding by his side, You Xuanhao is afraid that he will be so serious that he will not know that he has been abducted.

Hearing the affirmative reply, You Xuanhao immediately took out the sword given by the Northern Sword King from the Tianxin Bracelet, and slashed the two swords with lightning speed. You Xuanhao's swordsmanship can not be described as unpleasant and ruthless, after all, it has not been in vain to follow Rong Ze in the past few years. I only heard Ye Rui be caught off guard with an "ah", and there was an instant scar on the finger of the two.

"I You Xuanhao (Ye Rui), guided by blood, signed an unswerving agreement, never suspected that the other party had bad intentions, and never endangered the other party's life safety. If there is a violation, it will explode on the spot. The two blood fused, blooming with a blinding red light, and then disappeared without a trace.

The two breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a little more trust in each other in their hearts.

"Now you can start, don't make too much noise, or you will get into trouble. After putting away the sword, You Xuanhao took out a lot of silver needles connected with red silk threads and handed them to Ye Rui. These were all bought by You Xuanhao after bargaining on the road for a long time.

The foundation of the cultivation of the Moyue True Technique is to borrow the power of the silver needle to impact the acupuncture points with the spiritual energy in the body, and at the same time urge the control core of the dantian to construct the acupuncture points, which requires the secret method of the True Technique. Every acupuncture point impacted by the aura is a death point, and the slightest carelessness of the cultivator will die. If it weren't for the deep hatred in the memory gap in You Xuanhao's mind, as well as superhuman self-confidence and courage, You Xuanhao might not have tried this desperate method - of course, there is a life-saving method in memory about rushing to the acupoint to half of the failure, but the remaining illness is afraid that it will not be cured in a lifetime.

"Lung Yu, Yin Yu, Xin Yu, Kidney Yu, Life Gate, Zhi Room, Qi Hai Yu, Tail Lu, these days, you and I have practiced the way of acupuncture points and the method of flying needles, and now it is a critical moment, but there must be no mistakes!" You Xuanhao patted Ye Rui's shoulder, his eyes full of seriousness.

Ye Rui swallowed his saliva and nodded to start. After sterilizing the silver needle with fire, it is ready to begin. The reason why the method of flying needles is used is because there can be no interference with the spiritual power of others when impacting the acupuncture points, if Ye Rui gets too close, the spiritual power in his body will automatically flow to You Xuanhao, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

You Xuanhao took off his shirt, revealing his sturdy body, with his back to Ye Rui, and kept taking deep breaths, regulating the flow of spiritual power in his body.

"It's coming!" As soon as the call fell, a silver needle was inserted into You Xuanhao's lumbar vertebrae.

"Ahhh In fact, You Xuanhao, who had practiced the Moyue True Technique, didn't know that when he first rushed to the cave, he almost lost his soul many times.

The fiery sensation in the lumbar spine stimulated You Xuanhao's nerves, and a stream of spiritual power rushed towards the life-gate acupoint. You Xuanhao was on the verge of collapse, silently reciting the mantra of the true technique, and suddenly opened his eyes, and two golden lights were released from his eyes. The core of spiritual power began to be built in the dantian, controlling the spiritual power to break through the barriers of the life gate. Then, the moment the acupuncture point broke, You Xuanhao's body shook violently, and he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and his facial expression was completely stiff. It took You Xuanhao a few seconds to recover his breath.

"Lung Yu!" another flying needle landed on You Xuanhao. At this time, You Xuanhao's whole body was already covered with sweat, and Ye Rui was also sweating nervously.

"Ahh

"Xinyu!"

"Ahh

......

The innkeeper was feeling very depressed at this time, because the shouting from upstairs was really spicy to his ears, and he was disturbed.

"Old ...... Husband, the two men above ......" the proprietress with heavy makeup said softly.

"Alas...... If you don't study well at a young age, don't do this if you don't have a girlfriend......" The boss showed a look of disdain on his face, and then put his arm around the boss's waist, and said with a smile: "They come, let's come too!"

The proprietress hurriedly pushed the obscene husband away, and said angrily: "I won't come, you will come by yourself! If I hadn't lost the bet to you, I don't know where I would be living a carefree life now......

The innkeeper sighed: "It seems that I only have the life of visiting the kiln, wife, I won't sleep at home these days......"

"You dare!"

........

Next. You Xuanhao got up from the bed, and his whole body was indescribably relaxed.

The first step of the cultivation of the Moyue True Technique was completed. Eight of the thirty-six dead acupuncture points located in the sacral part of the back and waist were all rushed open, and each acupuncture point was supported by a vortex of spiritual power, controlled by a huge vortex eye within the dantian. At this moment, You Xuanhao felt the wonderful feeling of breaking through the fortieth level. The benefits brought to You Xuanhao by upgrading three levels in a row are not insignificant: the aura of heaven and earth is constantly surging towards You Xuanhao's body, You Xuanhao can clearly feel the flow of heaven and earth aura, and as a water soul mage, You Xuanhao's perception of the water element is also more keen.

"Brother You, have you broken through level forty?" Ye Rui opened his hazy eyes and saw You Xuanhao, who was so excited that he wanted to jump up.

"Well, thank you Aiqing for helping me break through the second major level!" You Xuanhao smiled easily.

"That'...... Are you sure you don't want to take a shower?"

You Xuanhao looked over his body and couldn't help but be startled by his appearance. The whole body was covered with blood stains, sweat stains, and a large number of indescribable impurities discharged from the body, and if you smell it carefully, you can feel a foul smell. Frightened, he hurriedly took a bath for more than an hour, and washed his body with a faint fragrance, and then reluctantly paid the water bill for a copper coin.

That is, after You Xuanhao took a bath, the branch hall of the Soul Dao Palace in Xindu issued a notice to recruit mercenaries. This is a common way for soul mages to train themselves.

"Xiao Ye, let's go take this task. You Xuanhao tore the notice off fiercely.
