During the day, the shopkeeper is still the shopkeeper, Xiao Er is still Xiao Er, everything is as usual, and at night the group is at the waterfall in the forest, each cultivating their own body, tempering their physique to Rong, and cultivating their mental power with thousands of pains.

While protecting the road for the two, Qi Wang moved a big stove, and kept refining many heavenly and earthly treasures with Nianhuo, and improving the incomplete puppets and dolls step by step.

Except for the puppet Zhubei, the puppet Li Liuzhi and the puppet Zhang Qian can only be regarded as semi-finished products.

On the open grass, there was a blazing transparent flame under the three-legged and nine-footed one-zhang high copper furnace, and compared to this flame, Qianxian's burning of the corpse of a young baby was insignificant.

With Qi Wang's current level of mental power, he would definitely not be able to control fire so powerfully.

The biggest reason is the small formation he is holding in his hand.

Prajna Array.

This ancient strange array laid by Li Chu, although it is located in the demon village, the central core can be carried with you, and if it is triggered, a small Prajna formation can be laid on the spot.

In the dense and ancient three-dimensional array, a smart rune trembled slightly, and the majestic power of thought surged endlessly.

All the chanting fire is triggered by this chanting talisman.

The earth receptive is transformed, and the celestial rune master gathers the talisman, and the Yu Wanxiang reminder of the year is extremely talented, integrating the strengths of hundreds of schools, and independently condensing a natal spirit talisman, so as to step into the heavenly talisman master.

If a normal earth reminder is promoted, he will choose to rub a spirit rune, ranging from one to nine.

With the blessing of the large array, the consumption of spirit runes can be replenished in time, so Qi Wang's refining speed is extremely fast, as long as the mind can hold on, there is no such thing as rest.

Clusters of pure energy and spiritual liquid were constantly being refined into two unformed puppets and puppets by Nianhuo, and the refining process was constantly improving, but the progress was still not fast, and it would take a long time.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Winter goes to spring.

In the dense jungle, two creatures are chasing each other quickly.

"Peng!"

A huge figure slammed into the trunk of the tree the size of the basin, and the force of the tree made the trunk snap in response.

It was a pitch-black, gold-and-iron wild leopard in the mountains, it should have eaten some heaven and earth spiritual treasure by mistake, and it was lucky to embark on the road of cultivation, and its body was stronger than ordinary wild leopards, which was quite difficult, and it was rumored that several cultivators in the official mansion of Honghu Town had been planted in its hands and reduced to a beast's belly.

And at this moment, the famous Jin Tieye leopard in the town is dying, and it is known for its speed, and it can't even outrun humans!

That's right, a human!

A naked, thin-looking teenager.

On the branch, the young shopkeeper jumped down, stepped on the head of the wild leopard, turned his palm into a knife, inserted it into its hard head, rubbed it for a while, shook his head slightly, and withdrew his palm stained with cerebral blood, and an invisible flame burned violently to remove filth.

The young man, with blood stains on his body, several bruises, and a three-inch-long claw mark on his chest, watched the young man's actions curiously.

"Without the core, no luck works. Qi Wang explained: "But all beasts can be cultivated when they become essences, and there will be a thing in their heads that can store spiritual power, and the cultivators are called spirit cores, and spirit beasts are naturally beast cores." ”

Xiang Rong nodded.

Qi Wang said with a smile: "Good job, the one who died in the hands of this wild leopard already has three spiritual cultivation of sixfold spiritual power, even if it is an ordinary sevenfold spiritual power, even if you can barely beat it, you can't kill it with extremely fast speed, which shows that your strength has improved very quickly." ”

Xiang Rong scratched his head embarrassedly, his current cultivation, according to Qi Wang, should only be a six-fold quenching body, and it is still far from the so-called entry realm.

The level of physical cultivation is the most clear and simple, entry, ascendancy, and completion, corresponding to the condensation of spiritual cultivation, gathering infants, and entering the ancients.

The young man smiled and said: "It's really good to be able to kill the wild leopard by leaping through the ranks, but the physical cultivation is known as invincible at the same level, you still have a lot of room for improvement, don't be arrogant, continue to work hard, and step into the door realm as soon as possible, I can send you to a place, which will be of great benefit to your cultivation in the future." ”

Xiang Rong nodded repeatedly, then quietly glanced at the east, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Wang, at my current speed, when will I be able to break through to the eighth level of quenching?"

Qi Wang pressed his head with one hand and scolded with a smile: "What, are you worried about the big ant in the east again?" Although it only has about eightfold spiritual power, but because of its attributes, its strength is extremely great, even if you are a physical cultivator, I am afraid that you can only stabilize it by attaining the ninth level of quenching body, and if you compete at the same level, you may not be able to win." ”

In the past three months, Xiang Rong seems to have competed with an ant in the east, I don't know if it is because he was crushed too badly in terms of strength and became competitive, and he has to go to the big ant every three or five times to slip around, Qi Wang is in line with the idea of exercising him, except that he will die, otherwise it is easy not to make a move.

Xiang Rong lowered his head with a little disappointment, and then raised a smile: "Okay, Brother Wang, then I'll go back to heal first, see you at noon." ”

The boy who got up early in the morning dragged the huge wild leopard and trotted towards the distant town of Red Lake.

Qi Wang's footsteps leaped, returned to the waterfall three miles away, the woman sitting cross-legged slowly opened her eyes, the pair of cut water autumn eyes were black and white, looking quite strange.

After a long moment, the tumbling black in the woman's left eye slowly faded, and a long breath of black turbid gas came out of her throat, and the rising black qi touched the emerald green leaves, but the latter turned yellow at an extremely rapid rate.

Cold, deadly, and filled with despair.

Qi Wang couldn't help but shake his head slightly, he was a little skeptical that his idea was too bold, Qian Xian was not him after all, although this nightmare was an adventure from the sky, it was good to be able to catch it.

The woman got up, her little face couldn't stop the look of exhaustion, her body shook and almost fell, but fortunately a strong big hand supported her.

The young shopkeeper said softly: "Okay, rest for two days, and recover well." ”

The woman blinked her dark eyes and said stubbornly: "Don't!"

Qi Wang glared at her: "Rest!"

Qianxian also glared at him: "I don't want it!"

Qi Wang was happy, and slapped her on her delicate buttocks: "It's against you!

The woman suddenly broke her skills, and she was very embarrassed.

The young man couldn't help but squat down and pick up Qianxian on his back, and walked towards Honghu Town: "Cultivation is a journey, one is relaxed, you haven't had a good rest for three months, don't mess around!"

The woman with her head resting on the young man's shoulder pouted and said: "When you practiced mental power back then, the door was closed for half a year, and the old man of the Qingyang Academy withdrew from the battle, and almost forcibly broke the door, thinking that you had gone mad, and you were embarrassed to say that I was messing around." ”

Qi Wang, who bared his teeth and had nothing to refute, could only say viciously: "Don't talk nonsense! You have the final say or do I have the final say?"

The woman let out a long sigh of dissatisfaction, and then said with a smile: "You have the final say." ”

A man and a woman greeted the red sun in the east and walked out of the forest.

A little red mang, igniting the land of thousands of miles, full of vitality.

There was no one on the street early in the morning, but everyone stiffened and stopped, and watched in amazement as the man in black with a hat dragged a huge black iron leopard to the gate of the town's official mansion.

The hurried servants hurriedly ran into the house, shouting to the heavens and the earth, and finally pulled a group of sleepy-eyed guys, and when they saw this huge black iron leopard that had been in trouble for a long time, they immediately became energetic.

The black-robed man received a reward of thirty taels of silver under the envious and awe-inspiring gaze of the crowd, and left the sight of the onlookers without saying a word.

Walking to the no-man's alley, he took off his hat, took off his black robe, a faint smile appeared on his slightly immature face, and ran all the way with the silver in his hand, twisting and turning, and came to a medical hall at the back of the town in a hurry.

There are only two medical centers in the town, one is public, the price is expensive, and the other is the hut in front of you, which is an old man from the countryside, although it is not famous, but many earthworks are very effective, and the price is cheap, which is the place where most people in the town go after getting sick.

There was no one in the morning, and after Xiang Rong entered the door, he found the old man who had just gotten up and got out of bed.

"It's coming. ”

The old man didn't mind if the kid broke into his bedroom all the way.

Xiang Rong stuffed the silver in his hand into Lao Langzhong's hand, and just wanted to run away, Lao Langzhong called out to him, threw a key at hand to him, and said angrily: "There is a smell of blood in the early morning, deal with it for yourself first, don't scare the little girl." ”

Xiang Rong nodded awkwardly, took the key, took off his shirt, took out the bandages and gold sore medicine from the cabinet with ease, and applied the medicine and bandaged the wound without changing his face.

Although relics can treat injuries, according to Qi Wang, unless absolutely necessary, the rest of the time the injuries are better to recover by themselves and medicine.

So in the past three months, Xiang Rong has been a regular visitor here, and he has to run almost every day.

Lao Langzhong looked at the young man who ran to the side of the room, shook his head helplessly, opened the bag and looked, his hand shook, his eyes widened, so much silver?

This kid is rich?

In the other room, there were more than a dozen wooden beds, most of them empty, and a few were scattered with patients, and Xiang Rong walked to the innermost one, on which lay a little girl of about five or six years old, pale and skinny.

"Girl. ”

shouted to Rong Rou.

The little girl opened her eyes with difficulty, a little dazed, and when her pupils slowly focused, and when she saw a familiar face, she suddenly smiled: "Big brother!"

Xiang Rong took out a handful of small green fruits from his pocket, all of them were picked from the forest, verdant and fruity, and said with a smile: "Look, what did the big brother bring you." ”

The little girl took a handful of small green fruits in surprise and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, big brother!"

Xiang Rong sat on the small stool, and laughed after watching the little girl bite the green fruit lightly and show a satisfied expression.

The little girl who swallowed carefully opened her shining eyes and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, my father and mother are they...... You're coming back, aren't you?"

Xiang Rong was stunned for a moment, then stroked her head with a smile, nodded and said, "It's almost over, they are now looking for Lang Zhonghe medicine for the girl far away, and they will come back as soon as they find it." ”

The little girl nodded again and again, smiling brightly, her little face was a little ruddy, and said, "Big brother, the fruit doesn't quench my hunger, can you help me buy some porridge?"

Xiang Rong got up and said, "No problem, you wait for me for a while, and the big brother will come back immediately." ”

The boy walked out of the house briskly and ran to the nearest stall.

After the footsteps walked away, the little girl's chest rose and fell, and half of the green fruit left in her hand fell on the bed, lying on the bed sideways and vomiting into the bucket on the side, not only the green fruit she had just eaten, but also the bitter gall water.

The old man who heard the movement hurriedly walked in, patted the little girl on the back, and sighed with his eyebrows.

The little girl with a wrinkled pale face wiped away her tears, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said, "Grandpa, I'm fine, I can still hold on, I will wait for my father and mother to come back." ”

The little girl picked up the remaining half of the small green fruit, and the old man snatched it and threw it into the bucket, and said angrily: "The wild fruit is cold, your stomach is not good, don't eat it!" Xiang Rong, this little bastard, is really fooling around with everything. ”

The little girl hurriedly waved her hand and explained aggrievedly: "I told my big brother that I wanted to eat it! This kind of little green fruit tastes very good, and my father used to pick a basket of baskets for me when I went into the mountains when I was a child!"

The old man's palms stiffened.

Childhood.

When she was a child, this little girl of five or six years old, how old could she be when she was a child?

The old man's eyes were pantothenic, and he couldn't bear to look at this little girl with white muscles and thin skin.

The little girl shrank in the quilt, slowly closed her eyes, and whispered, "Grandpa, I seem to be a little sleepy, I'll sleep first." ”

Lao Langzhong tucked the quilt for her, the back of the old hand pressed against her forehead, and after a while, he sighed and walked out of the house, just in time to bump into the young man who ran back with joy.

The young man with the hot porridge was dragged away by the old man.

"Don't give her any mess to eat in the future. The old man shouted with a heavy face.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood, and responded in a low voice: "Then I'll bring her the porridge." ”

Lao Langzhong shook his head and said, "She has fallen asleep." ”

Xiang Rong suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Why did you fall asleep again? Didn't you just get up......?"

Seeing Lao Langzhong's serious face, Xiang Rong immediately said urgently: "Doctor, is she seriously ill again? You save her, I have money! I can give you more money!"

Lao Langzhong was helpless, and said: "Yes, you are rich, but this money came too late, when she first sent it two years ago, if her father and mother could take out so much money like you, maybe it could indeed be cured, but now it's too late, the things in her head are getting bigger and bigger, and there is no way to cure it!"

The helpless old man could only sigh: "I told you that only a rare spirit grass can save her a glimmer of life, but that kind of thing is a treasure that legendary cultivators can not obtain, and no matter how rich we are, we can't do anything about it." ”

The boy stayed where he was.

He came almost every day three months ago, except for his own injuries, the reason was this little girl who was only five or six years old, she had been lying here for two years, and she was taken care of by Lao Langzhong.

Lao Langzhong and her are not related, she is the daughter of a poor and poor peasant in the town, born frail, and then when she was three years old, she was carried to the hospital, and after consultation, she knew that she had something in her head.

Just one day.

That night, when the little girl was in a coma, the two couples sold the old house of the family, but not to save people, but chose to stay away from here, walked away, and threw this trouble in the hospital to fend for themselves.

Emptying the family can't save it.

If you are saved, you may not be able to live.

Curable?

The peasant woman was crying at the time, and it was just a matter of saving it, after all, it was the meat that fell from her body, but if she couldn't save it, she was in debt, her family was bankrupt, and finally her wealth was empty, what should she do?

The honest man, after emptying out all his belongings at that time, smoked a dry cigarette at the door of the hospital all night, smoked until his lips were chapped, his tongue was burnt, and his eyes were bloodshot, and finally chose to sell the house.

Get away from here.

It hurts to look at the heartache, it is better not to see it.

She should have died two years ago, but then Lao Langzhong couldn't pass this level in his heart, so he forcibly pulled her life and maintained it until now.

Whenever the girl asked about her parents, the old man couldn't bear to tell her the truth, so he could only say that they had gone far away to find someone to find her medicine to treat her.

The little girl will be very happy every time, no matter how painful it is, no matter how painful it is, she can survive it, and she is looking forward to that day.

Later, after a long time, she also asked Lao Langzhong if she could contact them, telling them that it would be okay if she didn't look for them, as long as she could come back, she missed them.

She said she couldn't hold on.

She wanted to meet them, so she did.

The old man, who had been practicing medicine for 40 years, rarely drank alcohol, but that night he was very drunk.

Lao Langzhong looked at the kind young man in front of him and said bitterly: "Forget it, there's no way, there's really no way." ”

The boy silently walked out of the room and stood on the other side of the curtain.

For a long, long time.

He lifted the corner of the curtain and looked at the wooden bed at the end of the room, perhaps because of the pain, and the little girl woke up again, and she fumbled around the cabinet beside the wall with her back, and took out a drawing of a villain, which she had drawn herself.

An adult was holding a slightly shorter woman, and a small figure was sitting around her neck.

Happiness knows no bounds.

The little girl who endured the pain of illness had a happy smile on her pale face, and she lowered her head and kissed the villain's painting.

She has been abandoned by her parents, but she doesn't know it, the only thing she knows is that her health is getting worse and worse, sleeping more and more, and she knows that she may die.

The little girl has no concept of death, but she just thinks that after she dies, she should never see her father and mother again, so she feels a little guilty, and she is sorry for her father and mother who are still desperately trying to find a doctor and medicine for her.

The little girl kept thinking in pieces: "Goodbye daddy, goodbye mother." ”

The boy outside the house slammed the back of his head against the wall, and his head was silent.

After a while.

The young man picked up his arm and wiped his face, looked at the silent old man opposite, and said in a low voice: "There will be a way, there will be one." ”

Lao Langzhong looked at the back of the young man leaving, and was a little flustered for no reason, and hurriedly shouted, "Why are you going?"

The boy strode away.

"I'll find a way!"
