The winter is getting farther away, the loneliness of the season is too much dusty, the air is gradually warming, and the warm sun shines on the earth, making everything bloom with tender green color, and the eye can see a vibrant one. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There is still a touch of snow white on the river in the distance, but it is gradually melted by the warm breath of spring, breaking the ice and flowing water, and the murmuring river flows slowly.
This scene of spring let Mo Chen, who has been adrift all the way, know that winter is going to spring, and another year is over, and the season full of life and hope has arrived.
Along the way, he also passed through many towns and towns, heard a lot of rumors about the rivers and lakes, and it could be regarded as a few months of wandering in the rivers and lakes, and most importantly, he also inquired about the whereabouts of the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect is located in the direction of the imperial capital of the Celestial Dynasty to the east, on the Baizhou Tianshan Mountain, and is one of the most famous sects in the entire Midsummer Dynasty.
So when he got this important message, he didn't stop too much along the way, and even stayed overnight at night, eating steamed buns bought through the town when he was hungry, or looking for some wild fruits in the mountains to satisfy his hunger, and sometimes he was lucky, and he could also meet some pheasants and hares or other wild fowl to open meat, although the life was not good, but he was also happy.
Mo Chen walked in the lush mountains and forests, looking at the scene of flowers blooming all around, his mood also became comfortable, he touched the money bag in his arms, and found that along the way, although it was very economical, there was still not much left.
"My mother-in-law didn't leave me much, and besides, I'm afraid this is also her old man's savings for a long time!" Mo Chen's expression was indifferent, and he said lightly: "So we have to speed up the process and arrive in the imperial capital as soon as possible, so that we will not be far from the Sword Sect." ā
As soon as the words fell, Mo Chen just didn't stay, his pace quickened, and he hurried desperately.
When night fell, the moonlight shrouded the entire dense woods, all of which were gradually darkening, Mo Chen was still desperately hurrying, although he stopped all the way, but during the period, he also passed through a small town, bought a few steamed buns in the town, and he hurriedly continued to hurry.
There are not many entanglements, and Mo Chen doesn't dare to think about staying at the inn, and he doesn't even dare to buy fragrant meat buns, so he can only eat steamed buns without any taste.
As the sky gets dark, Mo Chen can only walk in the bushes with the moonlight, according to the route given to him by others, it will waste a lot of time to walk on the avenue, and only walking on the path can save a lot of time.
Using the ancient sword in his hand to chop through the tall bushes growing around, Mo Chen walked slowly.
Suddenly, in the dense bushes in the distance, there was a sound of rustling, Mo Chen immediately became vigilant, he was extremely safe along the way, he didn't meet any fierce beasts, and listening to those people in the rivers and lakes, some demon beasts with cultivation are very dangerous, and generally even cultivators have to weigh them.
Mo Chen looked at the place where the movement had just come from, and slowly approached vigilantly.
Just as Mo Chen split the last shrub branch, a tiger beast covered in black fur quickly jumped out, opened a bloody mouth, the long fangs made people palpitate, and a foul smell erupted from its mouth, pounced on Mo Chen.
Mo Chen's face changed drastically, and his reaction was fast, and he hurriedly rolled to the side, just to avoid this fatal blow.
After a few rolls, Mo Chen quickly stood up, and was afraid for a while, it was really thrilling just now, if he reacted a little slower, he must have become the mouth of this black saber-toothed tiger.
Mo Chen carefully looked at this black saber-toothed tiger with long fangs, the size was not very large, it should be a juvenile saber-toothed tiger, although the face looked terrifying, but it was not a powerful demon beast with real cultivation, but an ordinary young beast.
"It's just an ordinary saber-toothed tiger!" Mo Chen's breath said a little hurriedly, even if it was an ordinary saber-toothed tiger, but for him, it was also a powerful beast, and if he was not careful, he would be killed.
The black saber-toothed tiger's eyes were full of violent light, grinning his teeth, looking at Mo Chen tightly, as if he had already regarded him as food in his mouth, and the greed in his eyes was undoubted.
Mo Chen held the ancient sword tightly with both hands, although there was no fear on his face, his heart was beating violently, as if he was about to jump out of his chest, obviously he was also panicked.
However, he kept telling himself in his heart that he should be strong, not cowardly, and face it bravely.
"Xiao Mo, you must live well!" flashed in his ears what his mother-in-law said before she died, and Mo Chen strengthened his mind.
Yes, you can't be afraid, you can't stop here, you can't die here, you have to live well.
But Mo Chen kept asking himself, why did I live, went to the Sword Sect's apprenticeship, or did I want to find my father and mother, maybe I became a peerless powerhouse?
Is this really the ultimate goal?
Maybe, maybe not!
However, Mo Chen knows that these are secondary, and the most important thing is to live by himself!
That's why you live!
Mo Chen's fists were clenched, and the strength of holding the ancient sword was even harder, and the blood in his body seemed to become boiling.
The black saber-toothed tiger was pressing forward step by step, ready to move, but Mo Chen was stepping back step by step, and the ancient sword in his hand was pointing at it.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the black saber-toothed tiger fell with an angry roar, and it rushed towards Mo Chen.
Seeing this, Mo Chen's pupils constricted, but his expression suddenly became fierce, and his hands that clenched the hilt of the sword used all their strength to slash at the throat of the black saber-toothed tiger.
The sound of cutting flesh came out, and the black saber-toothed tiger shifted slightly, its front feet were cut, and blood shot down.
"Roar!"
The black saber-toothed tiger roared angrily, ignoring the sore spot of the cut on his front foot, and pounced towards Mo Chen again.
Because the speed was too fast, Mo Chen was grabbed on his right arm by the sharp front claws of the black saber-toothed tiger, scratching his clothes, leaving red claw marks on his arms, and blood flowing down.
Mo Chen felt some pain in his arm, his expression was calm, he endured the pain, panted, and let the blood flow down his arm, but Mo Chen's hand holding the ancient sword did not let go, and the red blood flowed down the sword body and dripped to the ground.
A steady stream of blood flowed along the ancient sword, and the ancient sword in his hand was actually a strange scene at this time, only to see the dark red light shining and surging from the ancient sword body, and around the sword body, it seemed to be surrounded by a trace of black aura.
"Boom!"
Mo Chen seemed to be in a trance, his heart beat violently at that moment, and between his eyebrows, a blood-red mark suddenly lit up, and the bright light shone brightly, and at the same time as this blood-red mark shone, Mo Chen felt that the ancient sword in his hand was trembling slightly.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, the ancient sword dragged Mo Chen very domineeringly towards the black saber-toothed tiger, like an arrow, his body was light, and he gradually moved away from the ground.
And when the black saber-toothed tiger saw Mo Chen rushing over, he also roared angrily and rushed over.
Mo Chen felt that this seemingly slightly old sword seemed to be helping him, and his consciousness at this time was a little blurred, as if he was in a dream, but the only thought in his heart.
That's - kill!
Thirst for killing! Need hot blood!
The bloody picture made him feel extremely comfortable.
This thought filled his brain nerves, causing his eyes to turn scarlet, and his anger skyrocketed, and without the control and traction of the ancient sword, he directly slashed at the black saber-toothed tiger in a frenzied manner.
The bright blood-colored sword light continued to flicker, and when Mo Chen stopped and slowly fell to the ground, the anger around his body gradually dissipated, and the blood-red mark between his eyebrows also dissipated.
Consciousness gradually became clear, Mo Chen shook his head and looked around in some surprise.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and I saw the black saber-toothed tiger fall to the ground all of a sudden, blood flowing everywhere.
Mo Chen looked at this scene, taken aback, and didn't understand what was going on, but he didn't think much about it, put away the ancient sword, looked at the body of the black saber-toothed tiger that fell to the ground, grinned, and said, "There's meat to eat!"
In the dense jungle, a bonfire rises and disperses the darkness throughout the forest.
Above the bonfire, there is a wooden frame, and in the center of the flame, strings of meat flowing with fat are being smoked, and the aroma is fragrant.
It's rare to open meat once, so that Mo Chen, who has been sleeping in the open for a long time, feels that this meal is very refreshing.
Although the flesh and blood of this juvenile saber-toothed tiger were extremely tender, it was very small, so Mo Chen ate it cleanly in three or two clicks.
"But think about it, it's a juvenile saber-toothed tiger, if it's an adult saber-toothed tiger, I'm afraid it's me who will be eaten!" Mo Chen sighed and said, and then looked at the sky at this time, it was not early, so he found a safe place to sit under a big tree and slept quietly.
