Baihong Town.

The crescent moon is like a hook.

Under the deep night sky, the crow of crows was clearly heard, and the wind roared, and there was an eerie atmosphere in the deserted mountains.

The autumn is getting deeper, the night is cooler, and there is a lonely grave somewhere in the mountains.

There were wild dogs sniffing around, wandering around the lonely grave.

The sound of whimpering is like the cry of an evil spirit, and it makes the scalp tingle.

The young man with the knife passed by here, looking at the lonely grave and the wild dog, and his expression gradually became a little complicated.

Because it was a familiar scene in his memory.

There is also a lonely grave.

There is a wild dog.

And the little boy with a frightened face.

Familiar scenes are always easy to recall memories of the past, Li Mengzhou stood there looking at the foraging wild dogs, silent.

He went out of town to practice knives, and then returned to Broken Alley.

Just because there is a lonely mountain guest in Baihong Town, Li Mengzhou and Xiao Zhinan are not in a hurry to leave, although they have not yet figured out the story hidden in the heart of the lonely mountain guest, but it is indeed beneficial to follow the lonely mountain guest to practice.

The wild dog sniffed, sniffed, and stopped on the other side of the lonely grave, as if he had found something, and cautiously tried to do so.

Li Mengzhou didn't continue to watch, turned around and left slowly.

In the next moment, a hand suddenly poked out from the side of the lonely grave and grabbed the front leg of the wild dog, and the barking of a dog like a ghost crying immediately came far away.

......

Of course, Li Mengzhou heard the slightly terrifying voice in the middle of the night, but he didn't turn back because a person appeared in front of him.

A woman dressed in white.

Li Mengzhou's expression gradually became solemn, judging by the breath alone, the woman in white was obviously a very dangerous character.

"You are the seventh gentleman from the Sword Courtyard of the Imperial Palace?" The woman in white held a sword in her hand, which was a sword that had never been unsheathed and was already sharp.

"Girl?"

"The moon from the frost. ”

Li Mengzhou was surprised, of course he knew who Yue Congshuang was.

The chief disciple of Pujia Garden, the senior disciple of the lord of Haitang Mountain, and the senior sister of Lu Jiuge and Nan Sheng, among the younger generation of female monks in Jiang Guoli, in addition to the third senior sister, Yue Congshuang's reputation is the loudest, and because the third senior sister has not been born for a long time, in fact, Yue Congshuang's reputation is extremely high.

"It turned out to be Senior Sister Yue. Li Mengzhou waved his hands and saluted.

He didn't know very well how strong Yue Congshuang was, but he was definitely not as powerful as Shen Qiubai and Beizangfeng, compared with the fourth senior brother and Xie Chunfeng and the others, it was worth guessing.

Mo said that he had some friendship with Lu Jiuge and Nan Sheng, and the Ligong Sword Academy and Pujia Yuan themselves were also closely related, so he would not be hostile, although Yue Congshuang was only hanging the identity of the chief of Pujia Garden, and the heir of the mountain lord was Lu Jiuge, but the world could not deny Yue Congshuang's status in Pujia Garden.

When he was very polite, Yue Congshuang was also looking at him seriously, and when Li Mengzhou's body stood up straight, she suddenly said, "It's so weak." ”

Li Mengzhou was only stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Compared to Senior Sister Yue, I am naturally very weak, and it has been almost a year since I stepped into the path of cultivation before I can barely cross the threshold of the Four Realms, which is really ashamed to say." ”

These words are very suspicious of pretending to be something.

But in fact, speaking seriously, Li Mengzhou really felt that his cultivation speed was too slow.

Although it took less than a year to become a great monk in the Four Realms from an ordinary martial artist, it was an extremely appalling thing, and he could definitely be called a demonic figure, but he still felt that it was not enough.

The purpose of his coming to the capital, in addition to becoming a cultivator, was to kill Qin Chengyi, even if he was not qualified to become a cultivator in the end, he never changed this idea.

Not to mention that Qin Chengyi himself is also a very strong cultivator, there are very strong disciples like Song Yidao in King Lu's mansion, and his cultivation in the four realms does seem to be a little weak, he will feel that his cultivation speed is too slow, but it is also very reasonable, he didn't care at all, he just practiced for less than a year.

Qin Chengyi is a cultivator and His Royal Highness the Prince of Jiang State, no matter what kind of identity Li Mengzhou has, as long as Qin Chengyi does not commit a similar crime of rebellion, he will not have the opportunity to kill Qin Chengyi.

Unless he can be strong enough to ignore the rules of the world and easily kill a prince, he can still get away with his whole body.

This is an extremely heavy task and a long way to go.

Li Mengzhou has patience, but there is a limit after all, he is afraid that he will not be able to wait for himself to be strong to that extent, who knows if there will be any other accidents in this process, or Qin Chengyi will suddenly die in the hands of others.

Because of this, in addition to constantly thinking about becoming stronger, he actually doesn't have a very clear plan for what to do, but as long as he finds an opportunity, he will definitely kill Qin Chengyi desperately, even if it is the same death.

But these words were heard in Yue Congshuang's ears, and they were just pretending to be that.

She didn't refute it, because Li Mengzhou's words were also true, and it couldn't be denied that no matter how much time Li Mengzhou had practiced, he was weak now, which was also true.

But Yue Congshuang needed the sword in Li Mengzhou's hand, to be precise, it was the sword of Jian Xiu, her gaze moved down, but she saw that what Li Mengzhou was holding in her hand was not a sword, but a knife, and immediately frowned slightly and asked, "Where is your sword?"

Li Mengzhou didn't know why, but still replied: "In the sea of qi." ”

Yue Congshuang asked again, "Why are you holding a knife in your hand?"

Of course, a sword cultivator must hold a sword in his hand, there is only one natal sword in his life, and it is very strange for a sword cultivator to hold a sword instead of holding a sword.

Li Mengzhou didn't bother to explain this matter, and said: "The sword is there, the sword is there, and it has nothing to do with what you hold in your hand." ”

Yue Congshuang learned about Baihong Town from Beizangfeng and Xie Chunfeng, and it was not for outsiders to come here, it was a coincidence that she met Li Mengzhou, although she was thinking about Xiao Zhinan, but it would obviously not be a simple matter to let the personal disciples of Beiyan Jianlu help.

Although Li Mengzhou is a little weak in her eyes, he has finally crossed the threshold of the four realms, and he is also the seventh Mr. of the Palace Sword Academy, adhering to the sword intent of the Palace Sword Academy, but he is also a very good candidate.

She didn't pay attention to the question of whether Li Mengzhou was holding a knife or a sword in her hand at this time, and said directly: "I'll borrow your sword for use." ”

......

Beside the lonely grave that was blown by the wind, the wild dog was very lazy on its stomach, and a man dressed in tatters and looked like a beggar reached out and stroked the wild dog's head, and got up from the ground.

He looked up at the moon, which was half obscured by dark clouds, and there was a gurgling sound in his stomach, smash it, smash it, he looked down at the wild dog, and said, "Are you hungry, I'm hungry too, go get something to eat." ”

The wild dog glanced at him, but did not move.

The beggar man stood still for a moment, and said helplessly: "Then I'll go find food myself, you wait for me here." ”

He staggered towards Baihong Town.

Of course, there will be hares in the mountains, and there are also very fierce beasts, not to mention that it is possible to bury the beast's mouth, just catch the hare, he can't do it, he can only go to Baihong Town, find out, is there any restaurant with leftovers.

There was no energy in his eyes, and there was a dead silence.

But he obviously didn't want to die, and he had to find a way to fill his stomach hungry.

Although the tattered clothes on his body made him look like a beggar, if a person with a vicious eye could still see that the original appearance of this tattered clothes was definitely not cheap.

He walked around Baihong Town, there must be leftovers in the restaurant, depending on whether the other party is willing to give you the leftovers, some people will not give them to a beggar even if they throw away the leftovers.

But he apparently didn't care about any of that either, and if he threw it away, he could pick it up again.

It's nothing more than being scolded, which is nothing compared to filling your stomach.

He pulled a few leftover steamed buns and half-pulled chicken thighs in the leftover bucket, in fact, there was no meat anymore, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was chicken bones, but if you look closely, you still don't eat clean enough, and it is always enough to plug your teeth.

He continued to stagger out of Baihong Town, back to the lonely grave.

The wild dog lying on the ground seemed to smell the delicious food from a long distance, and as soon as he approached, he was already very excited and rushed over, and grabbed the chicken leg with more bones and less meat in the beggar man's hand.

The beggar man was a little angry, but in the end he just sighed, put his back against the lonely grave, and muttered: "I originally wanted you to gnaw bones, and I came to eat meat, but you are so greedy, you even snatched the meat from me." ”

He looked at the dirty steamed buns in his hand that had been gnawed and leftovers, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and stuffed it into his mouth without care.

Nearly choked in the process, he swallowed viciously as he got up and ran out.

Soon came to the banks of the Tianhe River, knelt directly on the bank, picked up the clear water and drank it.

The wild dog followed, and seemed to be drinking pleasantly.

The beggar man rolled over and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, looking at the stars in the night sky, and suddenly a line of tears fell.

"I think I, Li Ergou, am full of ambitions, why did I end up in such a field?"

Li Ergou looked sideways at the wild dogs around him who were also looking at him, they were really two very lonely and pitiful dogs.

"Dog friend, fortunately there are still you, you will be my good brother in the future!"

The wild dog cocked his tail, and then left a lump for Li Ergou.

seems to be responding to Li Ergou's words and expressing his extreme agreement.

"Dog friend, I suddenly found that I was still very hungry. ”

Li Ergou looked at it very resentfully.

The wild dog seemed to be aware of the crisis, and stared at Li Ergou very cautiously, grinning his teeth.

Li Ergou's face turned pale for a moment, although it was dirty and couldn't be seen.

He sneered and reached out to caress the wild dog's head, but he was afraid that the wild dog would bite him, and said with some embarrassment: "Just kidding, you are my dog friend, no matter how hungry I am, I won't beat you." ”
