Huang Cong returned to his back mountain, carefully studied the ring, remembered the scene when Yang Xuan held the ring and begged for mercy in the mountain, not only smiled astringently: "He really didn't lie to me at the beginning, he only blamed himself for not knowing the goods!"

As soon as the thought moved, the book inside the ring appeared in front of him, he sighed at the magic of this thing, he could feel that the ring had signed a contract with him, and with the thought, what was in it or what he wanted to take out was clear.

He carefully looked at the book, and there were four big words written on it, "one step away", looking at this interesting name, he turned the first page, and he understood that this is a special martial art, a kind of growth martial art, with the depth of skill, in the end, thousands of miles away, this kind of martial art was displayed, and it was just a step.

Huang Cong was amazed, this kind of light martial arts is really terrifying, whether it is chasing people or running for his life, it is the first choice, and at the same time, he sighed: "This head is also generous enough, and he is willing to give this kind of martial arts to himself, okay, since this is the case, then I will help you make your head position a few more years!"

With a deeper understanding, Huang Cong discovered the profundity of this martial art, and it can also be used as an auxiliary martial art in a duel.

In the midst of joy, he quickly practiced, anyway, this back mountain is a place where birds don't, so he can toss it by himself.

And the most important thing in this martial art is to learn to control the speed, otherwise, not only will it not help you, but you will also lose your life, just imagine in the battle with the other party, because you can't control the speed of this light martial arts, and directly hit the opponent's martial arts, isn't that lifting a stone to hit your own feet?

Within the time of a stick of incense, Huang Cong had hit the rock several times in a row, but fortunately, his body was extremely strong, and if he were replaced by someone else, he would have a big bag.

In the time that followed, he continued to correct his pace, practicing desperately during the day 'one step away' and at night regulating the breath in his body, meditating on the reasons for his failure.

Seven days later, in the continuous correction and continuous practice, he has gradually controlled the pace, within five zhang is his limit, although it can be farther, but it can't be controlled at all, but at the same time, this martial art also has a drawback, that is, it consumes too much of the yuan power in his body, every time he uses it, the yuan power in his body will be less than half, and it seems that he can't use it at will at will until it is at a critical juncture.

Huang Cong once again practiced 'one step away' his body was like a gale, the afterimage swayed, and instantly reached five zhang away, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, although the skill at this time can only achieve a distance of five zhang, but it is these five zhang who can not only escape for his life, but also ask for his life.

Looking at the countless stones that were smashed by himself everywhere in the back mountain, it was as if he had fought a big battle, and he laughed a few times and said, "It's time to leave the mountain gate!"

At this time, the sword sect became hot again, of course, except for those inner disciples, because they were all making final preparations for the sword sect competition in three days, everyone wanted to participate in the sword continent youth competition, and get the ranking to enter the dark city, so as to find their own chance, of course, those outer disciples who were not qualified to participate have already begun to bet, and the most prestigious of them was Lin.

Of course, there are some people who don't approve of Lin, because in their opinion, in this big competition, those disciples who have been hidden in the inner door for a long time will be out of the customs, and these talents are the most powerful, and they don't put the inner disciple ranking in their eyes at all, because they disdain such a fight, and only spend their time on cultivation.

Huang Cong first went to the Internal Affairs Pavilion and asked the Internal Affairs Elders to help greet Erniu and Xiao Yuanyuan, who was guarding the mountain gate, and then went to Shi Xiong and Yang Zong to explain their intentions, and the two of them seemed very surprised, why would he leave suddenly and not participate in this sword sect competition? Huang Cong casually said a few perfunctory words, and then the two promised that they would take good care of Erniu on the days when he was out, and they came to Erniu after everything was arranged.

There was silence between the two men, no one spoke, and for a long time, Erniu said: "No matter what you do, I will support you!"

Huang Cong showed a reassuring smile and said, "I'm leaving, remember to take care of yourself, if there is anything, you can go to Yang Zong and Shi Xiong, they will help you." ”

Erniu only responded slightly, without too much expression, this was the last conversation between the two men.

Early the next morning, when everyone was still discussing what kind of ranking Lin would achieve, he had quietly stepped out of the mountain gate, and did not let anyone send him off, because he didn't want to see that kind of reluctant expression, that kind of emotion would make people feel sad, and in the deepest part of his heart, he always remembered that he was not from here, and he would go back sooner or later.

Looking at the three thousand steps, Huang Cong laughed a few more times and stepped down, at this time, Xiao Yuanyuan, who was guarding the mountain gate, silently waved his hand to him.

There was an explosion, the sky was raining heavily, countless lightning bolts were scurrying in the dark clouds, recalling the first time he came, the weather was also like this, but he didn't have that concern in his heart at that time, he walked to the familiar rain pavilion to avoid the rain, and the scenes seemed to have been experienced yesterday, silently waiting for the rainbow to appear.

After a while, a peasant woman came here with a hat on her head to hide from the rain, Huang Cong recognized it, it was because of this peasant woman herself that she knew Erniu, and the peasant woman seemed to remember Huang Cong, nodded with a smile, and after a while, there were more and more people in the rain pavilion.

The rain fell for nearly an hour, the sky finally became clear, the rainbow hung high in the sky, the peasant woman nodded to Huang Cong again and walked in the direction of her farmland, and the other people also gathered together because of the rain, after chatting, the weather was clear, and they dispersed because of their respective purposes, and they did not have too much nostalgia because of the short reunion just now.

Huang Cong saw this scene and sighed: "Isn't life like this!"

A few days later, he came to Mengyi City again, looking at the statue of Mengyi Fairy carved from jade in Mengyi City Square, as if the Dugu Yanran in his mind was awakened again, and he heard a whisper: "Li Mengyi, when my Yuan Shen is restored, you will definitely be able to bear the pain I have experienced!"

When he looked at his body carefully, he found that it was still empty, and there was no trace of Dugu Yanran.

There were still three months left to return to the sect, Huang Cong looked at the people who were running around for their own purposes, and said with a smile: "What should I do?"

Walking here, Huang Cong was reluctant to move forward, he didn't know if the original Boundless Sword Sect was still chasing and killing him, especially the Nine Sword Elders, and the law enforcement elders who followed behind, the terrifying Cheng Dù was vivid, after some inquiry, the people in this city did not know that the Infinite Sword Sect was chasing and killing a person named Huang Cong, and there was not even a portrait.

He sighed deeply when he got this news, it seems that those people from the Infinite Sword Sect should not be chasing this side, otherwise they should have their portraits posted everywhere.

Huang Cong didn't know what to do during the three-month trial, so he simply took a look at the excitement of the world in this ancient city, and after a while, he came to a noisy place, there were a lot of people here, but it was orderly, it seemed that every wave of people was a team, and everyone had a strong physique, and they were extremely strong.

After inquiring carefully, he understood that this place was called the Mercenary Guild, and these mercenaries would take on a lot of tasks, ranging from being bodyguards to protect the lives and property of those who paid for it, to catching some rare mythical beasts or exploring some terrifying Jedi, and the union had a special person in charge of registration, that is, to go to him to take the task.

Just then, he spotted a familiar figure, the Blood Wolf, who seemed to be on a mission, and the man from the union was registering him.

After a while, the blood wolf had already registered, and at this time, one of the deputies next to him said, "Commander, do you really want to take on this task?" But with our strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to catch so many six-armed snow apes?"

The blood wolf sighed and said, "I know, but what about the nine brothers who died, what about their families? They are already dead, and it is estimated that it is difficult for orphans and widows to live, as their regimental leader, I should give them a settling-in allowance, but if we don't take this task, where will we get the money?"

After speaking, everyone lowered their heads, and the blood wolf said: "I know that this mission is very dangerous, and I will not be reluctant to quit, after the task is completed, I will still give you your share." ”

After hearing this, everyone said: "Commander, you don't treat us as brothers too much, the nine brothers who died are not also our brothers, we have followed the head of the regiment for so many years through ups and downs, what are we afraid of." With that, everyone had red necks.

The blood wolf showed an ugly smile and said, "The reason why I asked you to withdraw from this mission is because I don't want to see my brothers become fewer again, and after this mission is over, we will take on a simple task together, you also know that it is difficult to complete this task with our current strength and numbers!"

One of them looked very excited and said, "Commander, since this mission is not easy to complete, we need everyone together, how can we let you go alone, Commander? What do you think of us?"

The blood wolf looked at his brothers, his eyes were rosy, if it wasn't for the lack of money, he would definitely not joke with their lives.

At this moment, an abrupt voice sounded: "Are you still recruiting people from your iron-blooded mercenary group?"

The blood wolf looked up, Huang Cong's face appeared in front of him, he smiled and stretched out his hand, for a long time, the blood wolf shouted: "Welcome to join!"

The blood wolf drank at this time: "Brothers, should we shout a slogan at this time?"

Before Huang Cong could react, everyone shouted: "Iron and Blood Corps, invincible, ride the wind and waves, the king of mercenaries!"

The mercenary union was already noisy and chaotic, and at this time, under the shouting of this group of men, everyone was attracted to attention, and one of the bearded men shouted to this side: "Hey, old wolf, the bragging exercises that have not been seen in the past few days are still the same as before, if you are the king of mercenaries, we are still the emperor of mercenaries!"

After finishing speaking, the echo sounded, and a group of men disappeared into the mercenary union.
