Lu Li stood on the abandoned beacon tower for a full stick of incense.

Li Sansan is actually a very smart person, and when he saw Lu Li running away with that demeanor, the surging feeling in his heart became a little more. The two grew up together when they were young, maybe Lu Li didn't know that Li Sansan actually understood Lu Li's way of living. But as the son of a general, he has a different way of life from ordinary people. But Li Sansan still tried his best to put his attitude in the same position as Lu Li, so that he would not feel a sense of identity difference.

He knew very well that he and Lu Li were both people who did not have any cultivation talent, and they were both people who ate and waited for death in this city. However, he came into contact with people and things related to cultivation far more than Lu Li had heard. If Lu Li's heart was filled with a hint of strangeness after hearing such news, then his desire for cultivation was actually more urgent than Lu Li's.

Li Sansan watched his brother die under the knife of the Jin Guoliu soldiers, and also looked at the attitude of the imperial court towards his Li family. A hundred years after his father, if he is still just a border man, he can't even be a golden soldier. So, how to protect this continuation of the glory!

This beacon horn from the capital of Luoyang is more like a pair of invisible hands, peeling off the yearning for cultivation hidden in the hearts of the two of them layer by layer.

Lu Li slowly walked down the observation deck, and the two walked side by side.

"Actually, I just want to see what kind of experience it is like to live such an unrestrained but extremely dark life as Old Man Xu said. I just wanted to see it, but it looks like I've seen it. Lu Li lowered his head, and the blue blade appeared in his mind again.

"Do you mean that person?" the two looked at each other, each looking at the yellow sand under their feet, one deep and one shallow, and continued to walk slowly.

"Yes, but I don't know if he'll come back, but take a step back and say, even if he does, how will I talk to him. Maybe he'll kill me with a single sword. Moreover, now that the city is so heavily guarded, once it is discovered, it is basically no fun. ”

Li Sansan suddenly stopped, and then turned his face to look at Lu Li.

"Are you so sure he's a good man, what if it's a fugitive captured by Qin Tianjian. Or, it's just a demon who kills people without blinking!" "In the final analysis, Li Sansan just didn't want Lu to leave to wade into this troubled water, but now that his mind is clear, just like Old Man Xu said, cultivation is based on chance, so before raising all those thoughts, let's save my life first."

"If he really wanted to kill us, maybe yesterday morning, we would have lost our lives outside the house. Moreover, I slept heavily last night, and since he woke up and ran away, I don't think he would be that kind of person anymore. Lu Li seemed to be arguing, he needed to find a reason to be at ease, even if that person came back and was willing to teach himself, he might be able to embark on that road. But he had to convince himself first, and then Li Sansan.

"If it's really like what you said, I will always keep this secret for you, and no matter whether he is good or bad, you will always remember the current situation in the city, live first, and then practice. Li Sansan didn't take a step forward, he paused and stopped in place. This is the first time that the two of them have never said such a thing.

In fact, Li Sansan was envious of Lu Li, and he still didn't say a word in his heart, if he had the opportunity, would he be able to walk on this road.

But he didn't say it, he knew that his identity was fundamentally different from Lu Li. From the perspective of the overall situation, he needs to save this little life even more, which is why Li Chaonan never mentioned this matter again when he knew that his son had no cultivation talent.

Lu Li could let go of his hand and chase the ethereal avenue, but he couldn't.

"Thank you. Lu Li stood up straight, looked at Li Sansan and said softly.

"Okay, okay, don't be so miserable, I'll go back first, I heard my father say that a few monks will come from Luoyang in the next few days, as if it is just to give a lecture on the life of the originator of martial arts. I heard that the Namada Temple is an order of the Son of Heaven, based on the promotion of the foundation of martial arts, so that more people can understand the mystery of it, and it will be easier to embark on this extremely ethereal path of cultivation for the vast majority of people. After Li Sansan finished speaking, he turned his head and prepared to leave.

"Oh yes, there is another scene that I haven't told you, yesterday evening, when the originator of martial arts soared, Luoyang was covered with dark clouds and strong winds. Many people have seen the vanishing Vajramanda Dharma. Li Sansan paused.

"But that's not really the point, the point is that someone saw a miracle at the source of Luoshui in southern Xinjiang, almost at the same time. Li Sansan sold it, paused again, and showed a little fascination on his face.

"Miracles?" Lu Li took over very cooperatively.

"Yes, someone saw that the Divine Dragon Negative Diagram came out of Luoshui, and jumped up 90,000 miles!" Li Sansan's eyes flashed after he finished speaking.

"Shenlong? Eighty percent of them are blind!" Lu Li didn't care.

What kind of jokes, how can this kind of strange tale that I have only heard in books really exist! Take 10,000 steps back and say, if there really is such a divine dragon, it will not be too early to make a mess of the Western Xia Dynasty.

"Believe it or not! I don't believe it anyway. Walked away. After Li Sansan finished speaking, he walked towards Dongcheng, thinking that the only opportunity to touch those things openly, he could only wait for the group of monks from Luoyang.

Lu Li stood in place and was stunned for a while, and simply returned to the house.

Nothing to say for a day.

Lu Li only went out for two meals halfway through and stayed in the house almost all day. He also deliberately took a long detour, for fear of being seen by the woman with the red sleeves.

I was embarrassed to give that noodle money. If you really run into it in the future, you can only admit it.

Lu Li is waiting. He always felt that the swordsman who had slipped away suddenly would definitely come back. Let's call him a swordsman, after all, Lu Li can't think of a better word to describe this weird person.

Now that the guards patrolling the city can be seen everywhere, the swordsman is injured and must need to recuperate. Outside the city, and the weather was getting colder, he couldn't think of a better place for him to hide than his own relatively hidden alley.

And he chose to show up here that morning, which was a bit deliberate.

One day, two days, three days.

Lu Li stayed in this house every day and didn't go anywhere. Li Sansan came here once, and he saw Lu Li's intentions, so he left without a few words. He knew that there were some things that would only give up if he saw the final result.

On the evening of the third day, Loulan ushered in a cold rain, which was the first rain since the beginning of autumn. Lu Li put on a coat and a hat on his head, and went out.

In fact, he didn't know what he was going out for, so he just walked around the city, probably just looking for that figure. The shops in the night market were basically closed due to the rain, and there were only a few ordinary people hurrying home on the road, and there were teams of black-armored soldiers patrolling.

Everything seems boring.

Half a pillar of incense time, Lu Li chose the way back. He looked a little tired, the little sadness on his face was not hidden, and the rain seeped down the cracks in his hat, ticking down his cheeks, disrupting his thoughts.

I'm still too impatient, how can the opportunity be so easy to get. Old man Xu obviously said that he is a cheap life at all, and his talent and fate are not touched. But he is still naïve and delusional.

Li Sansan came to tell Lu Li today that tomorrow morning the meeting at the south gate will be very likely to be transferred to the Wang Mausoleum to garrison. Then, this one-sided relationship may really never have any intersection again. I still have to go back to my step-by-step life, and I can't make any waves.

Lu Li thought about walking and walked back to the south alley, but just as he stepped across the stone bridge and was about to walk towards his house, he stopped abruptly.

Lu Li smelled a familiar smell of wine! This is the wine that Old Man Xu has been drinking, this wine Lu Li has been smelling for as many years as he has lived, so at this moment, even if he is far away, he can clearly smell the taste.

Just a few days before the Chinese New Year's Eve of the year Old Man Xu died, he brewed one hundred and eighty jars of rice wine himself, which was almost his annual amount of wine, and the wine was buried in the cellar under Lu Li's house. Because Lu Li doesn't drink alcohol, Lu Li has never been to the cellar dedicated to storing wine, and he almost forgot about it.

Thinking like this, Lu Li's heart stirred up a thousand waves, and he tried his best to suppress the excitement that seemed to come out of his bones. Step by step, I walked towards the door.

When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped again, took off his coat and hat, and straightened his clothes. Only then did he freeze his mind and straighten his body.

He raised his hand tremblingly and pushed the door open.

The swordsman, with two knives at his waist, sat cross-legged on the ground, picking up a bowl of wine and drinking it down. The festering on his face seemed to dissipate somewhat, and he got a new outfit out of nowhere. There were ten jars of wine in the house, and half of them were drunk. And the other half, neatly at his side.

Lu Li was stunned, he found that the swordsman's eyes never glanced at him, but just drank by himself, bowl after bowl, drinking very calmly.

Seeing this, Lu Li turned around and gently closed the door without making the slightest sound. He turned around again and began to stand still.

The rain outside the window suddenly increased, and the raindrops on the eaves slowly joined into a line.

Tick tock! Tick tock!

Lu Li stood quietly at the door of the room, and for a moment he felt that all the noise disappeared, only the sound of the knife man pouring wine and the gurgling of wine.

In the whole house, these two voices were staggered, and when I heard it in Lu Li's ears, there was an inexplicable joy!

Lu Li's breathing gradually slowed down, following the beat of pouring wine and drinking, exhaling and inhaling, as if he was in a trance.

It wasn't until he looked at the last bowl of wine that Lu Li suddenly woke up, and the sound of rain came into his ears again. Lu Li subconsciously swallowed his saliva, only to feel that his head hurt a little, as if he had stayed up for several nights. He looked at the man sitting cross-legged on the ground again, and was about to step forward to clean up the mess, when he heard a series of crackling tiles coming from the alley outside the house.

A figure swept down from the halfway point of the back mountain, breaking through several roofs along the way, and also knocking down the beams of the broken courtyards.
