When the sun rises, the town of Shuning is covered in golden yellow, and the residents start a busy day again.

In fact, there is nothing to be busy with, and there are some trivial things in Shuning Town, which are nothing more than running around for food and life.

The northwest end of Jiang is almost like a slum, and there are some problems with the soil quality, it is difficult to grow food, but some places are different, in the autumn harvest season, the rich grain is hundreds of miles around all need to be scrambled, whether it is to barter or buy silver, the main thing is to be sooner rather than later, otherwise even the mouth of the can not be eaten hot.

Moreover, the nearby horse bandits also set their sights on food, and often encountered the trouble of snatching food, and it was common for people to die.

Stockpiling grain has become a must be planned in various towns and villages, otherwise an unexpected occurrence may lead to no food, and in winter, the number of people dying of hunger and freezing will increase.

As the richest man in Shuning Town, Aunt Wang naturally has some food, but she can only barely survive this winter, especially Aunt Wang is kind-hearted and will help her neighbors, so it is unknown whether she can survive this winter.

Li Mengzhou, as usual, ate three bowls of tofu in Aunt Wang's shop, and hiccuped with satisfaction.

Aunt Wang is wearing a coarse cloth long skirt, her figure is slightly bloated, but it is not obvious, compared with other women of the same age, Aunt Wang's figure is definitely perfect, after all, there is a child as big as Wang Paner, it is good to be able to maintain her figure like this.

Li Mengzhou has been in Shuning Town for three years, and in addition to the old man providing him with a place to live, the residents of Shuning Town, especially Aunt Wang, are more kind to him.

He wondered if he was going to leave soon, and if he should help Shuning Town get rid of the threat of horse bandits completely.

Aunt Wang carried a small pot of soju and put it in front of Li Mengzhou, which is also necessary for Li Mengzhou every time he comes to eat tofu flowers, and Aunt Wang has become accustomed to preparing a pot of soju for him every day.

Although she didn't agree with Li Mengzhou's young age, he was so addicted to alcohol.

But isn't there a saying that the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes it, even if she nags in her mouth, this small pot of soju will still enter Li Mengzhou's mouth.

"The old man in your family doesn't like to drink either, why do you like to drink so much, who did you learn from it, drinking too much alcohol hurts your body. ”

The store was not too busy, so Aunt Wang took the opportunity to sit opposite Li Mengzhou and looked at him with disgust.

Li Mengzhou thought about the matter of the horse bandits and the old man, and replied casually: "Although wine is not a good thing, sometimes it is also good medicine, not to like it but just to get used to it, and I drink a lot of alcohol, so I won't get drunk." ”

Drinking is not a good habit after all, but Aunt Wang has no way to take Li Mengzhou.

At this time, Wang Paner, the little rich woman, went down the stairs, stretched her waist and yawned, looking sleepy-eyed, and she hadn't found Li Mengzhou sitting in the store.

This store has a second floor, but in fact, it is only an attic, and the space is not large, but in the whole of Shuning Town, such a building is already amazing.

Wang Paner, who was rubbing her eyes, looked at Li Mengzhou in the afterglow, and immediately blushed, as if she felt very shy because Li Mengzhou saw this state and slept lazily.

But in fact, Li Mengzhou didn't see Wang Paner.

Wang Paner also trotted over and muttered and explained: "I was too busy yesterday, so I was a little tired, so I got up so late, I usually get up early." ”

Li Mengzhou turned his head to look at Wang Pan'er and said, "I am still growing my body, so I should sleep more and not be so tired." ”

This is a very normal concern, but listening to Wang Paner's ears, it rose many levels, her little face was blushing, and she felt sweet in her heart.

Aunt Wang looked at this scene, her eyes were also bent into a crescent moon, and she seemed to feel very relieved.

Li Mengzhou didn't know what the mother and daughter were thinking, he hesitated a little and said, "I'm going to leave Shuning Town." ”

Wang Paner's complexion changed slightly, and her shy pretty face also turned slightly white in a very short time.

Aunt Wang was also surprised by Li Mengzhou's sudden words, and hurriedly asked, "Where are you going to leave Shuning Town?"

Li Mengzhou didn't hide it, and said with some yearning: "I'm going to the imperial capital of Jiang State, Langya City." ”

Of course, the capital of Jiang is a place that all men yearn for, it is the center of Jiang country, and it is a holy place where you can show your ambitions.

If Shuning Town is hell, then Langya City is heaven.

If talented people want to find a way out, the capital city must be the first choice.

A good man has ambitions in all directions, and it is certainly not a bad thing to go to the capital, Aunt Wang thinks that Li Mengzhou has the idea of wanting to be an official, which is naturally a very lofty ambition.

But how easy it is to enter the court, how many scholars may not succeed in ten years of bitter cold, not to mention that Li Mengzhou has not studied much.

But where did Aunt Wang know Li Mengzhou's true thoughts.

He didn't go to the capital to show his ambitions, not to be an official, not to get ahead, but to do something that had to be done, and this thing could only be done in the capital.

The capital city was the starting point of his life's path, and for eight years it was only a grinding preparation for the moment of starting, and now that he was ready, it was time for him to set off.

Of course, he had no way to tell Aunt Wang about these things, otherwise, he might not be able to get out of Shuning Town, and Aunt Wang, who cared about him like his own mother, would definitely not be willing to let him take risks.

Because he is likely to die the moment he starts.

Eight years of forbearance and the humiliation and darkness he has encountered are just for the day to come, no matter how many thorns await him in front of him, he will kill a bright road with one person and one sword.

......

There is a broken valley thirty miles south of Shuning Town, which is deserted and cannot survive even a single weed, like a place abandoned by Daotian.

There is a black-clothed young man sitting in the broken valley, the top is hundreds of meters away from the ground, for the martial artists on the rivers and lakes, this height is nothing, but for ordinary people, it is a little dangerous.

The ten grades of martial arts mainly have three stages: body refining, blood refining, and god refining, one to four grades of body refining, five to nine grades of blood refining, and the ten grades of martial arts masters are refining gods.

There is a watershed in every stage, especially the nine grades and ten grades, which is the highest bottleneck of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes, and it is also the end of the martial arts. For the primordial realm cultivators who have just visualized the aura of heaven and earth and even been baptized by Amaterasu, once they are close to the martial arts master, they will definitely die.

Martial Arts Grandmasters are much higher than those at the Initial Realm Visualization Stage, and are basically at the same level as the Amaterasu Stage Cultivators after opening the Qi Sea, or even slightly stronger. Only those rare martial arts peak powerhouses could wantonly kill the monks of the Amaterasu Visualization Realm, but in the face of the monks of the second realm in their cultivation, it was difficult to say.

Li Mengzhou is at the stage of the Nine Rank Martial Arts, no matter what conspiracy the old man has, but the medicinal bath in those two years did give him a physique comparable to that of a martial arts master or even stronger, but because his qi had not been transformed into Gang Qi, he would be seriously injured in a battle with the Amaterasu Realm monk in that Taoist temple.

The horse bandits in Shuning Town and the old man who had been with him for three years were not Li Mengzhou's primary target, if he couldn't advance to the realm of martial arts masters, he couldn't even beat those horse bandits.

There are hundreds of horse bandits in the radius of Shuning Town, and Li Mengzhou may not be afraid of anyone if he fights alone, but with his current strength, it is only a dead end to fight against horse bandits.

This is also the main reason why Li Mengzhou never took the initiative to clash with the horse bandits.

It's because of the lack of strength.

Even if the leader of the bandits can be successfully assassinated, the rest of the rabble will be more troublesome without checks and balances.

To do the best of nature, if not, you can only keep a low profile and forbear.

Even though Li Mengzhou doesn't like this feeling very much, sometimes he has to compromise under the pressure of reality.

Now that he is planning to leave Shuning Town, Li Mengzhou has the responsibility to do something for the people of Shuning Town.

Eradication of horse bandits is inevitable.

In addition, if he learned of the old man's conspiracy, if he wanted to save himself, advancing to the realm of martial arts masters was the only choice.

But it is difficult to break through the realm of martial arts masters, in addition to breaking through one's own limits, one must also break through spiritually.

The huge Jiang Guo, a master of the martial arts master level in the rivers and lakes, not to mention rare, but there are less than 100.

At a young age like Li Mengzhou, he delusionally wanted to break through the realm of a martial arts grandmaster, no matter where he was, it was a fool's dream.

The youngest martial arts grandmaster powerhouses in the past generations were at least in their thirties and nearly forty, and the general martial arts grandmaster powerhouses were already over half a hundred years old at the moment of breakthrough.

A seventeen-year-old martial arts master is no longer impossible, but it shouldn't exist at all.

Perhaps a young man with extremely high talent in martial arts can cultivate to the stage of a nine-rank martial artist in just a dozen years, but if he wants to go one step further, it may take more than ten years.

Li Mengzhou also knew this, but he didn't care.

Because he wants to, he will do it.

He not only wants to become the youngest martial arts master powerhouse, but also to become a cultivator, and cultivation is what he pursues.

Different visions naturally lead to different thoughts.

Because if you dare to think, you will dare to do it, and no matter how unrealistic that idea may seem at the moment, if you don't even dare to think about it, you will be doomed to failure.
