The cold wind is like a knife, using the earth as a chopping board, and all living beings as fish and meat;

The snow will stop, and the wind will not settle.

In the deep valley, two teenagers walked quickly.

They were about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the snow was flying, and the two of them had become a snowman, the same color as the silver and white earth.

The deep valley is uneven and there is thick snow, which makes it very inconvenient to walk, but the two teenagers are as fast as flying and flexible, like fish in the water.

"Zi Chen, you read that right, in this cold day, we shouldn't run in vain. One of the teenagers, in the middle of a gallop, suddenly spoke.

"Zhao Can, you and I have been brothers for so many years, I will still lie to you. Five hundred years of snow ginseng, guarded by a fifth-level fierce beast ice bear, you and I are careful, plus the weather is cold, and there is a preparation for the haode ecstasy, it will definitely succeed. Taking a deep breath and melting the snow that had fallen in front of him, the young man named Zichen said.

"If that's the case, we'll be developed. Zhao Can's eyes lit up, and he said: "Five hundred years of snow ginseng, even in the sect, is enough to exchange for five True Qi Pills, now you and I are the strength of the fourth layer of True Qi, once you take the True Qi Pill and break through to the fifth layer of True Qi, you can become a high-ranking inner disciple." ”

"Five True Qi Pills are enough for you and me to break through and become an inner disciple is just around the corner. Zi Chen chuckled.

"Thanks, brother. Zhao Can said gratefully.

"You and I have known each other for so many years, so what are you polite to me. Zi Chen smiled.

Zi Chen's footsteps did not stop, flying forward, and behind, Zhao Can exhaled deeply, the gratitude in his eyes dissipated, and a trace of guilt emerged from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother, if people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves, don't blame me for this. Zhao Can sighed secretly in his heart and flew again.

The valley is large and deep, with two pairs of shallow footprints left on the thick snow.

This is a deep and remote valley, and in this cold winter, there are very few human footprints, not even the footprints of beasts.

It's a season of silence.

But on this day, two more figures flew in the deep valley.

"Hehe, among the outer disciples, Zichen is still known as the most cautious, and he didn't expect to be planted here. ”

These two people are wearing green clothes, and the green clothes are wrapped in a layer of animal skin, which is very similar to Zhao Can Zichen's dress before.

This is called knowing people and knowing faces, but not knowing their hearts, and it is also called making friends carelessly. The other teenager smiled coldly.

Zi Chen found a five-hundred-year-old snow ginseng, and he didn't forget to tell Zhao Can, obviously he intended to give it to him, but unfortunately this kid was really greedy, and he actually seized this opportunity and climbed up to Senior Brother Wang Xiong. ”

"Yes, Zhao Can's heart is too ruthless, and although Zi Chen is cautious, he is too stupid, such a great benefit, even Senior Brother Wang Xiong of the Inner Gate is red-eyed, he actually told Zhao Can. ”

"But fortunately, Zhao Can is ruthless, otherwise you and I would not have been rewarded by the True Qi Pill for nothing. ”

"That's right, as long as you successfully bring back the snow ginseng, you and I can break through the fifth layer of true qi, enter the inner gate, and become an inner disciple. ”

"Therefore, for the sake of the future, we must be careful, Zichen will not be wary of Zhao Can, but will be on guard all around, we must follow from a distance and wait for Zhao Can to send a message. ”

Both of them sneered, and then followed the shallow footprints on the ground, flying forward.

It was getting dark, and night was falling.

Zi Chen, who was leading the way in front, stopped.

"Have you arrived?" Seeing Zi Chen stop, a gleam flashed in Zhao Can's eyes, and he asked eagerly.

"No, we have to walk another day. Let's have a bite to eat first, find a snow-free place to rest for the night, and then leave tomorrow. Zi Chen dusted off the snow on his body and shook his head.

Behind the two of them, there are burdens, and at this moment, Zi Chen is taking food out of the baggage.

"This Zichen, it's cold, I think we should go early!" Zhao Can absentmindedly ate the dry food, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.

"Why, you're afraid that someone will rob you, don't worry, this place is very remote, even a fierce beast may not be able to find it, otherwise that snow ginseng will not be occupied by a fifth-level fierce beast. Rest assured, snow ginseng is safe. Grabbing a handful of snow from the ground and stuffing it into his mouth, a cold feeling appeared from the bottom of his heart, and Zi Chen couldn't help but shiver.

"You have to be careful with everything, after all, this is a five-hundred-year-old snow ginseng, and you should be even more careful in case the ice bear suddenly wakes up from its slumber and eats the snow ginseng?" Zhao Can said worriedly.

"It's unlikely. Zi Chen hesitated.

Although the probability of this kind of thing happening is very low, it is not ruled out that it is not possible.

"Okay, let's go. ”

To be on the safe side, Zichen didn't hesitate anymore and decided to hurry, which also made Zhao Can breathe a sigh of relief.

Facing the cold wind and snow, the two moved forward again.

And the two didn't walk for long, and where the two stayed before, two figures appeared.

"They stopped here before, and it was so dangerous, but luckily we were delayed for a while. Looking at the messy and deep footprints on the ground, the faces of both of them changed.

If it weren't for the delay in eating before, the two of them might have been discovered by the two who stopped here.

"Slow down and wait for Zhao Can to send a signal. ”

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the second day, the sky was bright, the cold wind was howling, loud, and the snow was heavier.

Zi Chen and Zhao Can were already standing on a hill.

"Have you arrived?"

In Zhao Can's eyes, there was eagerness.

"Hmm!" Zi Chen nodded, there was also a hint of excitement in his eyes, he pointed to the mountain in front of him, and said, "Just ahead, when I was looking for the elixir that day, I accidentally found it, and I arrived after I crossed that mountain and reached the valley." ”

A snow ginseng can allow two people to enter the inner gate, learn advanced martial arts, learn advanced **, and have more resources, for the outer disciples of the Lingwu Sect, the inner door is their goal. Now that he is only one hill away from the goal, Zi Chen looks very excited.

"Now take out the ecstasy, and we're ready to go. Zi Chen laughed loudly: "The inner gate of the Lingwu Sect, I, Zi Chen, are here." ”

"Haha, I'm Zhao Can too. ”

Zhao Can also hahadaxiao, walked towards Zi Chen next to him, stretched out his arm, as if to come to a brotherly hug.

Zichen daxiao, stretched out his arm, and the empty door was exposed.

One step, two steps, three steps, Zhao Can walked in front of Zi Chen, Daxiao's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, and he was about to hug his hands, but at this moment, his body was also surging with true qi.

"Peng!"

The mutation occurred in an instant, Zi Chen didn't react at all, he was hit by a strong force, and the whole person fell backwards, falling on the top of the mountain, and a humanoid mark appeared in the thick snow in an instant.

Zhao Can's sneak attack blow, Zi Chen was instantly injured.

"Poof!"

A mouthful of bright red blood spat out, and Zi Chen's face turned pale.

"You!"

Zi Chen looked at Zhao Can and wanted to say something, but at this time, a cold light flashed in Zhao Can's eyes, and he stepped forward again, urging the true qi in his body, and slapped a palm towards Zi Chen's dantian.

"Poof!"

A sound like a burst of qi sounded, and a stream of true qi raged in Zichen's dantian and meridians...

Zichen's meridians were damaged, and the dantian was abolished.

Fast, too fast, the fast Zichen didn't have time to react at all.

After Zhao Can's sneak attack, he quickly made up for it, and abolished Zi Chen, and during this period, Zi Chen only had time to say a word of you.

Zi Chen began to cough up blood, his eyes were like ashes, and his true qi that had been cultivated for several years was abolished, and he became a wasted person.

And this person who deposed him is still his friend and his brother.

Zhao Can, who had a ruthless face before, suddenly had a look of guilt on his face, and said softly: "Zichen, don't blame me." ”

"For Weishenme?"

Zi Chen was lying on the ground, his eyes were full of despair and disbelief, he didn't believe that Zhao Can, who he regarded as a good friend and brother, would plot against him.

"Because he wants to find a backer, and he wants to make a fortune in the inner door. ”

Before Zhao Can could speak, a sarcastic voice sounded on the mountainside, and then, two figures flickered, and after a few ups and downs, they reached the top of the mountain.

"You're here early. Seeing the two of them, Zhao Can said coldly.

"Hehe, I wanted to wait for the signal, but I saw below that you had already made a move, so I came up. One of them smiled.

"Damn...... Mountain, isn't it enough to enter the inner door?" Zi Chen's face was desperate and regretful.

He regretted calling Zhao Can, regretting that he was friends with Zhao Can, and regarded him as his brother.

"Of course it's not enough, in addition to the inner disciples, in addition to having a lot of resources, the others are almost the same as the outer disciples, they all have disputes and contradictions. ”

Zhao Can's guilty eyes had become calm, and he said lightly: "Originally, my purpose was to enter the inner door, which is my goal." If there were no accidents, I would not be able to enter the inner gate until two years later, but one of your snow ginseng plants allowed me to advance by two years. If I enter the inner gate, I may have to be cautious for a few years before I can find a backer, but your snow ginseng is useful to Senior Brother Wang Xiong, he can cover me, so it saves me a few more years. ”

"I saved a few years of time, and I don't have to worry about being calculated, and I can cultivate with peace of mind, such a huge benefit, just in exchange for a death for you, if you are replaced, will you not agree?" Zhao Can's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm.

Zi Chen's eyes were full of pain.

"If he were you, he wouldn't have called you, and there would be nothing to do with our brother. He's not you, and he certainly wouldn't do anything like you. The two of them said lightly.

"Yes, so, on this shijie, no one can believe it, sometimes blood relatives will harm you, let alone friends. Today's events are a lesson, but unfortunately you will never learn that lesson again. Zhao Can regained his cold appearance again.

Zi Chen didn't speak, his life was over, just because he believed in the wrong brother.

"Alright, let's go. Looking at the desperate Zi Chen, Zhao Can only had a sneer in his eyes.

"Let's go, you just let him go, just abolish the dantian, there are adventures in this world. The dantian was abolished, and if there was an adventure, it could still be restored. One of the teenagers said jokingly.

"Also, the grass must be cut to the roots. Zhao Can turned back again, with Sen Ran's killing intent in his eyes.

"Zhao Can, we are brothers. Zi Chen's heart was completely cold, as cold as ice and snow.

It's better to die than to live, although he has become a wasted person, although life is better than death, but it's better than death.

Zi Chen didn't want to die, but he couldn't help him.

"Yes, brothers are used to sell when they have profits. In Zhao Can's eyes, there was no mercy, only Sen Leng's killing intent.

"Poof!"

With a flash of cold light, a short dagger stabbed Zi Chen's chest and stabbed it in the heart, and blood instantly flowed out of the heart, wetting his clothes.

Zi Chen's eyes suddenly widened, and his breathing stopped instantly.

Vitality dissipates.

Zhao Can indifferently pulled out a short dagger, stretched out a kick, and kicked the dead Zichen down the mountain and fell into the mountain stream.

"Let's go!"

Wiping the blood from the dagger with the snow, Zhao Can turned his head and walked down the mountain.

Zhao Can's coldness and ruthlessness made the two of them shudder, and after glancing at each other, they both saw jealousy in each other's eyes.
