When night fell, there were a few sporadic flickering stars in the distant sky, Ruan Qingyun looked up at those stars, sighed, and his heart was blocked by a depressed atmosphere, perhaps because he had been depressed for a long time, the young man was always worried, so that the purple flame in the center of his eyebrows looked a little ambiguous, if you look closely, you will find that the purple flame between the young man's eyebrows has another color, red, like cinnabar, in the center of the purple flame of the flame, as if it is the wick of the purple flame. Walking on the streets of Qingniucheng, the night breeze was blowing, the street lights were gradually extinguished, and occasionally a few baby cries accompanied by the shouting and scolding of women came from not far away, and then fell into silence again.

Qingniu Mountain in the distance is like a giant in the dark, guarding this border city, and Qingniu Mountain is far away from the Red Flame Volcano, during the day, I saw the boss of Changfeng Pavilion flying towards the Red Flame Volcano, that mountain is more like a heaven and earth furnace, from time to time it will spew out strong flames. The people of the city called that mountain an ominous mountain, and all those who entered it never came back alive, and over time it was called the land of death, and no one dared to set foot on it. Ruan Qingyun's eyes looked at the Red Flame Volcano again, and at this moment, there was a violent vibration from the earth, the sky in the Green Cow City instantly lit red, and a fiery red mushroom cloud erupted above the Red Flame Volcano, and a heat wave was coming, and Ruan Qingyun retreated several steps in a row. The entire Qingniu City is in a state of hot baking. The long street was full of people, and they were talking, some people said that the earth dragon had turned over, some people said that the heavens were angry, and some people said that it was the monsters who were making waves. The lively crowd was like a fryer, and the voices were boiling.

Suddenly, Ruan Qingyun's eyes froze, the door of Changfeng Pavilion was closed, and he didn't see the figure of the old man, Ruan Qingyun walked quickly towards Changfeng Pavilion, bang, bang, there was a knock on the door, no one answered, Ruan Qingyun stopped for a long time, until the surrounding crowd dispersed, until the volcano in the distance was extinguished, he left Changfeng Pavilion, he had a kind of worry in his heart, worried that the old man would never come back.

Opening the door, Ruan Qingyun tiptoed through the courtyard and walked through the corridor, just as he was about to walk through the room where the lights were still on, a sigh suddenly came from inside, as if helpless, a tall figure paced back and forth, sometimes sighing, sometimes looking into the distance, as if realizing that someone was coming, and then stopped pacing.

The door creaked open, and Ruan Zhikun walked out of it. "You've gone to Qingniu Mountain?"

Ruan Qingyun's eyes were a little evasive, and he didn't dare to look at his father, so he replied in a low voice: "Yes." ”

Ruan Zhikun suddenly yelled: "Do you know, you haven't seen anyone all day, and you haven't said hello, how worried I am, I was worried that you couldn't support you when I was a baby, and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to think about it when I grew up, and there was ......." Ruan Zhikun's voice gradually lowered to the end, and he even choked up a little, and he finally didn't say that sad sentence.

The young man looked at his father's pale sideburns, the corners of his eyes were moist, and he suddenly hugged his head and cried, it turned out that he was not as strong as he imagined, "Father, the child has disappointed you. ”

There are too many imperfect things in this world, and all imperfect things are like epidemics that erode perfect families, some people have no food and clothing, some wives are separated, some white-haired people send black-haired people, and some people struggle to live a miserable life.

When the morning light rises, the border city, which had slept all night, regains its former vitality, and the long streets are bustling with people and shops.

Changfeng Pavilion, the door is still closed, Ruan Qingyun stopped for a long time when he passed by Changfeng Pavilion, after all, he didn't see the boss, maybe it's really like the legend, the Red Flame Volcano is the place of death, there is no return. Ruan Qingyun was silent in his heart, there was no one in the old man's house, just a grocery store that would never open, his disappearance did not cause much repercussions in the small town, and the people were still the same as usual, their faces were full of happiness and hope for life.

Ruan Qingyun walked past the Changfeng Pavilion and stopped at the door of Wang Si's pharmacy, with a couplet pasted on the door, 'Green sac Qianguze, red apricot and forest spring.' 'Horizontal batch is a wonderful hand rejuvenation. This couplet was still written by Wang Si's father at the invitation of the boss of Changfeng Pavilion, looking at the ink-colored handwriting, Ruan Qingyun remembered the figure of the boss Edgeworth leaving that day, he had always thought that the boss was just an ordinary person, but that day he saw the boss able to fly with his own eyes, and he knew that he was wrong. Ruan Qingyun thought in his heart that if the boss could come back, he would definitely worship him as a teacher.

Ruan Qingyun doesn't have a few friends in Qingniu City, Wang Si, Qiu Zhuohua, is his friend, Wang Si and his family run a pharmacy, and the business is still going, although Wang Si is an ordinary person, but he is optimistic, very business-minded, and he is also a good person. Qiu Zhuohua and her aunt live on the far edge of the west of the city, and hardly interact with other people in the city, which is strange to say, but they are only friendly with themselves, which Ruan Qingyun has always been puzzled about.

Ruan Qingyun shook his head and walked into Wang Si's pharmacy, where the smell of medicine was fragrant, Wang Si's father was busy diagnosing the patient's pulse, and Wang Si was watching and studying. Seeing Ruan Qingyun coming, Wang Si said hello to his father and walked on the street with Ruan Qingyun.

"Hey, your guy is too bold, he dares to enter Qingniu Mountain alone, your father was going crazy yesterday. Wang Si patted Ruan Qingyun on the shoulder and said affectionately.

Ruan Qingyun frowned, patted his chest at his friend: "Aren't I coming back, intact." ”

"Wait, how did the flame on your eyebrows change color. Why did it become red in the middle?", curiously touching Ruan Qingyun's forehead to see if there was anything magical.

Hearing Wang Si say that the flame mark in the center of his eyebrows had changed color, Ruan Qingyun felt a bitterness in his heart, and smiled bitterly: "It's okay, I'm idle and bored, so I touched a little cinnabar." ”

Wang Si didn't ask about the flame mark, but asked what he encountered in Qingniu Mountain on this trip, what demon beasts there were, what spirit grass, and what adventures he had. Ruan Qingyun answered them one by one, of course, there are still some things to hide, such as the red bird. Wang Si was very fascinated when he heard this, and asked Ruan Qingyun to take him next time, and the two walked through Niuxin Street and walked to the gate of the Hu family with a smile. Ruan Qingyun glanced at the magnificent Hu family's mansion, with the vermilion lacquer gate and the gold-plated plaque with the four big characters of Zhong Ming Ding Shi written on it, such as iron hooks and silver halberds, which are incomparably hard.

"I, what Zhong Ming Ding eats, he is full of traitorous villains, what virtues does he have in the tiger family, others don't know?" Wang Si spit a mouthful of phlegm towards the door of the tiger house as he walked.

Ruan Qingyun smiled and did not speak.

"Then I don't think I want to pursue the way of heaven, so as not to make people suffer, you are obsessed with the way of heaven all day long, but the way of heaven has ever favored you, no. What fairies and ghosts and the like are all lies, and only being alive is the most real. Wang Si talked eloquently and persuaded his friends, in his opinion, the life of ordinary people is very good, there is no intrigue, killing and bloodshed, a cup of tea, a pot of wine, two houses, and a book are enough.

"Yo, it's the waste of the Ruan family, it's capable, I heard that I went to Qingniu Mountain, and I was able to come back alive?" A group of teenagers came through the oblique thorns, led by a person dressed in brocade clothes, his face was as pale as paper, obviously he was overindulged in wine, blocking Ruan Qingyun's way.

"Hu Jincheng, what are you going to do?" Wang Si took a step forward.

"Get out of the way. The young man known as Tiger Jincheng dragged his left hand along the way, and Wang Si was thrown straight to the corner as if he had lost support.

Ruan Qingyun's face was extremely ugly, "Hu Jincheng, what do you want to do?"

"I just want to see how many catties and taels you have, why can you leave Qingniu Mountain alive, Ruan Qingyun, my father told me not to be your enemy, saying that you will become a great weapon in the future, but I don't believe it, you can become a great waste boy in the future?" "Ruan Qingyun, make a move, let me see what you are capable of?"

Ruan Qingyun was silent and did not answer, and the atmosphere of the long street was congealed.

"Ruan Qingyun, do you dare to agree?" Hu Jincheng smiled sadly: "Haha, don't you dare? How is his species a tortoise?"

The young men who followed behind Hu Jincheng coaxed: "Yes, it's a turtle, and his father is also a turtle, ahhahahaha!"

Practicing the master of the God Realm in the Green Cow City is already an existence that everyone looks up to, Ruan Zhikun is an insurmountable mountain in the Green Cow City, and the head of the Hu family, Hu Zhongming, is now the Tianyuan realm, and after Tianyuan is the refining god. Don't underestimate the gap at this level, it is an insurmountable gap in strength. Therefore, Ruan Zhikun was strong and the dragon pressed the realm, and Hu Zhongming was only secretly troubled, and he did not dare to touch the Ruan family.

Although Hu Zhongming was jealous of Ruan Zhikun, he didn't dare to challenge it openly, Hu Jincheng saw it in his eyes, and he was angry, so he had nothing to do to find Ruan Qingyun for trouble, and everyone turned a blind eye to the matter between children, and they would not be serious. Hu Jincheng is now a pulse cultivator, and his body has opened up five spiritual veins, and his talent is only below that of his eldest brother Hu Liancheng. There is no suspense at all in dealing with Ruan Qingyun, who has no cultivation ability at all.

Ruan Qingyun clenched his fists, angry in his heart, he could scold anyone, but he couldn't scold his father, his father was the only relative in this world, when he thought of that tall figure, he suddenly felt pride in his chest, took a step, and smacked out his fists like meteors, although his fists were fierce, but after all, there was no spiritual power to assist, so the two fists that were punched out could hardly hurt anyone. Hu Jincheng smiled contemptuously, raised his palms and cut horizontally, and there was a lot of spiritual power on his palms. Ruan Qingyun immediately withdrew his fists and kicked his left leg horizontally, he understood that he could not collide with Hu Jincheng head-on, and could only use the dexterity of his body to win. Although he withdrew his fists, Hu Jincheng still ignored it, and hit Ruan Qingyun's chest directly with both palms, and Ruan Qingyun crashed into the corner of the wall, defeating without suspense.

Hu Jincheng flew forward, stepped on Ruan Qingyun's face, and rubbed it fiercely: "Your father is a master of refining the Divine Mirror, how can there be such a waste son as you, are you your father's species, this makes me very suspicious, you will not be a wild seed,." "Hu Jincheng felt the pleasure of the strong, the weak, trembling soul, begging, the humble life, at this moment, his heart was infinitely comfortable, this feeling of controlling the lives of others is so good. "Ruan Qingyun, beg me, beg me to spare you." ”

Ruan Qingyun clenched his fists tightly, his nails almost seeping into the flesh, but he didn't feel the pain, his lips were tightly closed, and he just refused to say a word begging for mercy. The more Hu Jincheng looked at Ruan Qingyun's appearance, the more angry he became, he was a genius with a good pulse, and he was expected to reach the realm of returning to the house next year, which of the young people in the small city was not afraid of him, even the middle-aged people had to nod and call him "Tiger Master" when they saw him, but Ruan Qingyun was incompatible with him, he had long wanted to teach this kid a lesson, but he was forced by his father's pressure to dare not act rashly.

Hu Jincheng glanced at the person under his feet coldly, there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, just like looking at a dead person, he had recently mastered a new immortal law Tiger Flame, just to test the power of this guy.

Hu Jincheng mobilized all the spiritual power in the five spiritual veins and sprayed towards his arms, at this moment, his arms bulged, there was no wind automatically, and at the same time, he silently recited the mantra in his mouth, the Blazing Tiger Flame is the Tiger Family's ground-level middle-level immortal method. The Divine Continent divides the Immortal Law into four levels: human, earth, heaven, and saint, and each level is divided into three levels: low, medium, and high. In Qingniu City, the mid-level of the prefecture level is undoubtedly the highest grade.

"Tiger Flame, ho. The palms of his palms instantly swelled under the urging of spiritual power, and the young man's face turned pale instantly because of this domineering immortal method, and a tiger-shaped flame appeared on his palms, burning and roaring, like a tiger that chooses people to eat.

Hu Jincheng's pale face was even paler, the tiger-shaped flame was still frantically absorbing the spiritual power in his body, Hu Jincheng was suddenly a little scared, he just wanted to teach this kid a lesson, and he didn't mean to hurt his life.

Boom, the tiger-shaped flames erupted, opening their teeth and dancing their claws, and tore towards Ruan Qingyun.

The scorching tiger-shaped flames grew bigger and bigger in the black pupils, angry, roaring, as if to tear everything apart, Ruan Qingyun's eyes were overflowing with despair, it turned out that death was only a matter of moments.

At this moment, a phoenix roared in Ruan Qingyun's mind, and a red shadow flashed and pounced on the tiger-shaped flame, and suddenly, the tiger-shaped flame was like ice and snow melting, and it was extinguished in an instant.

It was all so sudden that everyone didn't know what was happening, and Hu Jincheng was sweating profusely, his face was pale, his expression was wooden, and he muttered in his mouth; Monsters....... monsters, everyone run. Hu Jincheng was the first to run away in the surprised eyes of everyone, and although the rest of the teenagers didn't know why, they also ran away.
