Chapter 45: Follow the Light
The arrival of Tao Wujiang and the three of them turned the whole battle around, and the three cultivators of the Earth Tibetan Realm were not easy to defeat by relying on numbers, not to mention that the killers had always been hiding in the dark, in order to attack behind their backs, and fighting face-to-face was not what they were good at.
The masked man clutched his chest and gave the order to retreat, and everyone hid into the jungle.
Zhou Tianshen and the three of them took the pill, their bodies were able to breathe, they recuperated cross-legged, and used their own methods to heal their injuries, and Tao Wujiang and the three of them protected the Fa.
A quarter of an hour later, Dao Wuxiang and Forget Zen woke up first, Zhou Tianshen was in a state of selflessness at this time, and at this time recovery would have unexpected benefits for advancement, Dao Wuxiang did not speak, kicked in Zhou Tianshen's face, and felt puzzled, and made up two more punches, Forget Chan stood aside and bowed his head to chant, Tao Wujiang and the three of them didn't know what was going on, and wanted to stop it, but they were blocked by Forget Chan stretched out his hand.
Forget Chan shook his head and told them not to care, and the three of them turned their backs and didn't look, and the power didn't happen.
Zhou Tianshen, who was interrupted from his cultivation, felt a tightness in his chest, and as soon as he woke up, he saw two fists hit him in the face, and before he could react, another punch was hit in the stomach, and he vomited out his bile in pain, and hurriedly waved his hand and shouted to stop.
Dao Wuxiang gritted his teeth and kicked Zhou Tianshen's chest directly, and Zhou Tianshen, who had just sat up and had not had a chance to catch his breath, was directly kicked into the tree.
Zhou Tianshen clutched his chest, sat under the roots of the tree, and said, "Can you give me a chance to explain?"
He knew why Dao Wuxiang was so angry, but he didn't know if he could explain it clearly, but there should always be an explanation for things, even if it would offend others.
Dao Wuxiang sat opposite Zhou Tianshen, his palm became a claw, rotated half a circle, and lifted it up, the golden wine jug on Zhou Tianshen's waist was absorbed by him, opened the wine jug, and took a big sip, Dao Wuxiang leaned over, put the wine jug in his right hand on his lap, pillowed his head on his left hand, and reached out to point Zhou Tianshen.
He really needs his explanation.
Zhou Tianshen soothed his body and mind, relaxed his breathing, and said slowly, "Actually, I can't say clearly, but it really wasn't my intention to learn secretly, I just watched from the side and learned it." I guess that's my way. ”
Dao Wuxiang pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "The thief who stole it?"
Zhou Tianshen grinned, covered his chest, and said, "It really hurts!"
Dao Wu wanted to return the flask to him, stood up, patted his buttocks, and said, "You said that your cultivation is involved, and I can't tell the truth from it." But true or not, I believe you. ”
The young man in the Taoist robe walked forward, Forget Chan followed him, Zhou Tianshen stood up and caught up with the two, Tao Wujiang and the three of them also walked behind the three, Tao Wujiang asked, "Aren't we waiting for Jiang Da Steward?"
Dao Wuxiang stretched out his hand in front of his forehead to block the sunlight, squinted his eyes and said, "No, we'll be there soon." ”
The golden sunlight shone on the ground and on the boy's clothes.

A total of five assassinations were planned.
Once was outside the city of Tianxiang County, against Zhou Tianshen. Once in the carriage, against the Tao Wuxi. The third time was in the National Palace, against the lord Li Xiao. The fourth time was last night, against the convoy going to Shuixiang County. The last one was the battle that had just ended, targeting Zhou Tianshen, Dao Wuxiang, and Forget Zen.
All five times ended in failure.
This is the shame of all the killers in the Xianyang Realm.
At this time, the boss of Hongshan, the four households, the old sister Zixia, and the old black demon gathered again, the wooden house was temporarily built, there were only four people in the house, and the rest of the subordinates were ambushed around, in case their whereabouts were discovered, and all the faces in the house were like sinking water, without saying a word.
The four households are divided into four families: snakes, lizards, jackals, and tanuki, all of which are good at using poison. The woman with the water snake waist who shot this time is the current head of the snake family, especially Yu. She is adept at using twin snakes, which are parasitic in the host from an early age, living and dying with the host.
You You sat on the side of the corner of the table, with a small emerald green snake tail wrapped around his fingers, and said in a cold voice, "I have been carefully planning for half a year, and I am about to succeed, but I let those three guys get in the way and fall short." Boss Red Mountain, you have to give an explanation. ”
The masked man's name is Meng Fan, and he is the boss of Hongshan in You You's mouth, and he has the largest generation in the killer organization dispatched this time, and he should have the most right to speak. His injuries were not serious, but the defeat at the hands of three teenagers made him feel worse than dead.
Meng Fan put his hands on the table, there was a cup of hot tea in his hands, and at this time it was steaming, Meng Fan said, "Hmph, what can I say to you? Everyone has seen that the appearance of those three people is simply something unexpected in the plan, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame it on Creation and Transformation." ”
The scar-faced man's double knives were always at his side, a habit he had cultivated over the years, and the lesson that the scars on his arms had taught him.
The scar-faced man's name is Chen Xun, who was originally the apprentice of the old black demon, because of the sudden death of the old black demon, he took over the killer organization, and he said in a deep voice, "When did the boss of the Red Mountain start to believe in creation?"
The old man put down the teacup and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, which contained some of his own old wine, although it was not as good as last night, today, and tomorrow's three glasses of wine, but it was also a habit to drink.
The intoxicating smell of alcohol spread in the air, especially by covering her mouth and nose to prevent the smell of alcohol from entering her body, the emerald green snake lying on her body was long gone.
The old man poured the wine into the teacup, took a sip, lay comfortably on the chair, and said, "When people are old, they will always believe, believe this, and believe that, but they are unwilling to believe in the choices they made when they were young." ”
Meng Fan drank all the tea and said, "Old man, you can rest assured that the old sister is home alone, I think you should go back first and take good care of the old sister, so that you can live for a few more years." ”
The old man closed his eyes, was silent for a moment, got up and closed the window of the cabin, and then sat down again, this time he deliberately wrapped his clothes tightly, closed his eyes and said, "I am old, and I am prone to catching a cold. ”
Meng Fan just drank tea and was silent.
When the smell of wine in the house dissipated, the little snake crawled back on its own.
Chen Xun began to wipe his double knives, and the swordsman couldn't do without the knife.
The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow shines brightly.
The pale yellow sunlight shone on the old man's body.

In order to let the pedestrians get enough rest, and also to let the people who enter the city have a full spirit to wander around Shuixiang County, Wuheguo specially built a small market at the foot of Taihang Mountain, called Shuijin.
The bazaar is not big, and it can't be compared with Suibao City in front of Daoxiang County, but the things here are all of good quality and low price, and the children are not bullied.
There are no walls in the water brocade market, and there is no boundary between the stalls, everything depends on self-consciousness.
Yu Xiaodu all the way to the north, from Wangwu Mafang to Kunlun Mafang in Shuixiang County, passing through the river and walking the dragon, except for the delay of half a day at the foot of Taihang Mountain, the rest of the time is in a hurry.
He's really on his way.
He can fool the world and fabricate the world, but what about it? Few people know that he still doesn't have to drink wine honestly, roll up his trouser legs to cross the river, and don't have to honestly queue up when he buys things.
After four or five days of traveling, Yu Xiaodu did not choose to walk against the wind, most of the time he walked on his legs, but even if he put away his supernatural powers, the cultivation realm of his body was there, and he was much faster than ordinary people or cultivators.
There is a small teahouse in the middle of the bazaar, the teahouse is divided into two floors, downstairs to drink tea and nap, upstairs to eat and sleep.
When he stopped, he finally found a place to rest, and just put away the wine jug and was about to walk into the teahouse, he was grabbed by an arm by a pair of green jade hands and dragged him back desperately.
Yu Xiaodu turned around, wanting to see who was so short-sighted and dared to block the way of the owner of the Penglai Tavern, he saw a red face glaring at him, and his cheeks bulging like a hamster.
The girl said, "I didn't see the sign that said, 'It's full, please wait', how can you cut the line?"
Yu Xiaodu followed the girl's fingers, and did see a signboard with the words 'full of customers, please wait', and then looked back, and did see a long line behind him, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a white-haired old man standing aside, his head down, unable to see his expression clearly, the girl supported the old lady, and pointed at herself murderously and shouted, "Line up later." ”
He didn't want to quarrel with a woman, and he knew that he was wrong, so he untied the wine jug on his waist, walked to the end of the line, and drank slowly. Someone came out of the teahouse, someone in the line went in, and when it was his turn, he heard the girl standing by the door of the teahouse muttering, "There is wine and you come here to drink tea." ”
The teahouse is not big, there are about a dozen people on the first floor, each person only has a small bench, there is no table, there is a foot-wide distance between people, the teahouse guy walks among the guests with a teapot, sometimes accidentally stepping on the feet of the guests, and saying sorry with a smile on his face.
In the depths of the first floor, there is a small table, and a young man with a crown stands behind the table, holding a striking hand, wearing a long robe, and his mouth is full of words, talking about the mountain and wild spirits, strange novels. Whenever it was time to rest, the young man's eyes always glanced at the girl at the door, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously opened upward.
Yu Xiaodu happened to sit by the door, the guy gave him a porcelain bowl, the porcelain bowl was polished white, it was too small, it couldn't hold a few mouthfuls of water, no wonder the guy was tired and sweaty, I was afraid that before he poured tea for this guest, the guest had already drunk it, but the tea bowl was small, but the tea pipe was enough, it only cost two pennies, and it didn't matter if he sat in the teahouse for a day, but the teahouse has been in operation for so long, and he has not encountered this kind of guest.
After drinking a few bowls of herbal tea, she looked at the girl at the door boredly, she had long hair tied with a cloth rope and straw, a blue water coat, and a pair of straw sandals with a few small flowers on her feet.
The girl's face was flushed, she should have been sunburned, but even in the hot sun, her skin was still white and wrinkled, and her hair was shining with green silk. In fact, there are many guests who come to the teahouse to rest for the sake of the girl's face, after all, they can come to Shuixiang County thousands of miles away, and no one has any money in their pockets for those guest houses.
Xiao Xiao stared at the girl's side face, was silent for a moment, took out a small hat from the inch in the sleeve, and covered the girl's head.
The girl's face darkened, she threw the hat to Yu Xiaodu, raised her fist, and said with a pout, "I don't need your pity." ”
Yu Xiaodu was speechless and said, "I just don't want you, the door god of the teahouse, to delay the business of the teahouse because of heat stroke, take a look, so many people are waiting for you." ”
The girl's face turned red and she was at a loss, and the guy poked his head out of the door and said with a smile, "Ah Sheng, since it was given to you by the guest, you can accept it." With such a big sun, I really should buy you a paper umbrella to cover it. ”
Since the eldest brother said so, Ah Sheng didn't shirk anymore, put on the hat, like a budding lotus flower, Yu Xiao was stunned for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he smiled self-deprecatingly, how old he is, and he still hasn't changed.
Then take out a small insect from the inch, this insect is called 'Wind Sound', it has four wings, likes to be with people, and its wings can roll up a gust of wind and bring cold to people. The little insect was lying listlessly on the hand of the little little man, and if you looked closely, you could see that three pairs of dry little paws were covering their mouths and snorting, and the little insect was handed to the girl, and the girl stared at the sleepy little insect curiously, feeling very surprised.
Xiao Xiaodu poked the little worm's stomach with his fingers, and the little worm's claws waved in the air, but he didn't want to get up, and Xiao Xiaodu said softly, "Hurry up, there is a little sister..."
Before the words were finished, the little insect flew directly in front of Ah Sheng, tilting his little head and dancing up and down, Ah Sheng was attracted by its cuteness, and also learned to look at the little bug up and down back and forth, the little bug buzzed around Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng sighed, "It's so cool." What's its name?"
Turning his head, the figure of the squinting young man was gone, standing there was a young storyteller in a long robe, the young man stretched out his hand, and the small insect flew to the palm of his hand, turned his back to the young man, and let out a loud fart, which made Ah Sheng's flower branch tremble.
The young man did not feel ashamed, grabbed the little worm, pinched its little belly with his fingers, and said, "From now on, you will be called a little stinky fart." ”
The little bug, which was privately named by the young man, broke free from the young man's palm, lay on the girl's shoulder, and started to sigh again.
Above the teahouse, the squinting young man sat on the white clouds, looking down at the world, the wine jug in his hand hovered in the air, the wine floated out of the wine jug, changing into a blurred figure, the sun shone on the back of Yu Xiaodu, shining on the wine, two shadows next to each other, reflected on the white clouds.
