Inside the small spice shop, the atmosphere is eerie.

Outside, there were many pedestrians, each looking after each other, the vendors were still the same, everything was the same, they all passed by the shop, but none of them wanted to come close to the shop to have a look. The shop, which had suddenly closed its door, was like this, as if it had left the town all at once, and no one noticed.

The doorway of this can be very particular. Refining red dust is not only to work hard in the red dust, but also to be able to stay away from the red dust without being heard of by people. The woman in red in the house did not do a bad job.

Inside the store.

After being silent for a long time, seeing that Lin Futian was still standing in front of him with an unchanged face, the woman in red who had met in the forest before had no choice but to sigh, and the bright red of her fingertips gradually disappeared.

Lin Futian glanced at her fingers and smiled.

Why haven't you seen each other for so many years, but your guts have become so small?

The huge red drum that I didn't see her this time, if Lin Futian guessed correctly, that red drum should also be a magic weapon of extremely high quality, and with the sake of the nine-tailed fox, it would be amazing. The moment the woman entered the store on the day of the forest burial, she was very uneasy. She also did not expect that after leaving that place, escaping from the old fellow's grasp, she would meet this mysterious young man again, who was still young then, and now young, but the smell of danger on him did not diminish in the slightest, and especially back then.

She looked at the man who had never said a word, but who had brought her uneasiness second only to Lin Futian, and he just stood quietly and watched coldly. But she felt that if she did anything excessive, she would definitely be killed by him.

Lin Futian saw the nine-tailed fox in front of him who changed his appearance after changing his appearance, although his appearance had changed, but as she said, for Lin Futian, her taste and demeanor were something that these spices could not cover up no matter how much they concealed, although it was a nine-tailed demon fox, but as long as she did not step into the realm of the gods for a day, it would still be just a fox, and now it was okay, if it was a few years later, she really did that unprecedented thing, then it would really be impossible to help her. It is estimated that by that time, even Zephyr will not be able to get rid of her with great certainty.

Lin Futian smiled, remembering the previous experience of being close to death, if it wasn't for the timely arrival of the land lord, it is estimated that it would be difficult for Lin Futian to come to this point. So he felt more and more indebted to him, both then and now. Many people believe in him as the Emperor of the Underworld, so they follow him, but he really failed them, reincarnation to the present, it is already the tenth life, he himself thinks that this is the last life, success or failure in this move, and he has taken the way of reincarnation, which is bitter, only he knows, not enough for outsiders.

A long life is just a foreshadowing for deeper loneliness.

Lin Futian took a chair from the counter, put it in front of the counter, and then sat down, he asked, "Why don't you speak?"

The woman seemed to have really changed a lot, her expression was complicated, and she said, "I really don't have what you're looking for here." ”

Lin Futian waved his hand, "No, actually."

Yes, don't worry, I won't delve into why you're here, I still know a little about the cultivation of the fox clan, we won't interfere with your trip to the Great Dao, and the other part of your place that you don't know about the reason yourself, I can guess some, if you want to know, I can tell you quietly. As for us, you don't need to worry too much, we have no ill will towards you, of course, provided that you don't have ill will towards us either. You should understand this precedence. ”

The woman nodded, "Then, if there is really a sword forging material in the store that you want, you can just take it, but ...... The money still has to be paid. ”

Lin Futian said with a smile: "You are worthy of being a businessman, it seems that you are very effective in refining red dust." ”

The woman retracted her expression and asked, "You said I'm here for a reason, so what is the reason why I don't even know why I'm staying here?"

Lin Futian left the chair and said with a smile: "You'll know later." ”

Lin Futian glanced at the spice box closest to the door in the store, stepped forward, and gently wiped his finger on it, and the bait on it was instantly eliminated. Lin Futian took the spice box and slowly walked to the counter.

Zephyr frowned, he shouldn't have noticed the spice box, but he didn't expect it to be placed at the most conspicuous door.

Lin Futian put the box on the counter, and the woman stared at the box, her eyes slowly turning red.

Lin Futian hooked his fingers and picked the box open.

The temperature in the store suddenly became bitterly cold, a layer of frost spread out, and even the lights in the store went out.

The woman's face changed greatly, and she said in a trembling voice: "This ...... How can this be?"

Lin Futian snapped his fingers, and a few sparks drifted to the wick and ignited again, and the room returned to its previous state.

"Looks like you know. Lin Futian sat down and said.

Luo Mei and the others came over and looked at the inside of the box, it was a round "iron ball", I don't know what kind of metal it is, but I have never seen a metal that can actually change the vitality of a place, change the world.

Lin Futian looked at the "iron ball" in the box and explained: "This is the [Ancient Iron] from the Far North, I don't know why it appeared in this place, I remember that that place used to be called the 'Land of the Gods', and I don't know who spent so much money to take such a metal from the Far North,", Lin Futian looked at the woman in red, the latter's eyes were gloomy, as if he had lost his soul. Lin Futian asked, "What did you think of?"

The woman in red leaned against the counter, losing her strength, and her eyes were no longer focused. Not knowing what she was thinking, she shook her head slightly and muttered, "I didn't expect it...... Unexpectedly, I still haven't been able to escape from your control, it's been a thousand years, why are you targeting me like this......?

Lin Futian suddenly said, "It turned out to be the white deer walking in the forest," Lin Futian leaned back, "I see, I see," his eyes stared at the roof, his eyes were extremely indifferent, "Demon Sect, your hands are really a little too long......"

Zephyr frowned and said, "

Did the people of the Demon Cult do it?"

Lin Futian nodded, "Well, that's true. ”

Zephyr wondered, "Why do the people of the Demon Sect act like this, why do they deliberately go to the Far North to get this [Ancient Iron] and put it here? ”

Lin Futian said: "The people of the Demon Sect can't be judged by common sense, but I probably still understand something about this matter. ”

"How?"

Lin Futian sat down and said in a deep voice: "[Gu Tie] is one thing, but all of this is under the control of someone in the Demon Sect, which is a little terrifying, including the fact that she seems to have escaped from control, left that place, and came here to continue refining the red dust and cultivating the mind, but she still did not get out of their control, everything is still under the control of that person, which, of course, also includes our encounter." ”

Lomé shuddered, "This...... How is that possible?!"

Lin Futian shook his head, "It's not impossible, the technique of deduction, after reaching the divine calculation, what will happen in the future is all expected by that person." I didn't expect ...... When did such a figure appear in the Demon Sect? deliberately put [Gu Tie] here early, just to stimulate her demons, and at the same time suppress her magical powers, in order to let us take action, the best, is to get rid of you, the nine-tailed demon fox, but that person is not very thoughtful, he thought that we would kill each other, but what he couldn't calculate was," Lin Futian paused, and continued:" Although I am not soft on killing, but I am not a person who loves to kill, I have no killing intent towards you, even if you are a nine-tailed demon fox and want to harm the world, but I don't want to get rid of you. The man could count that we would meet, but not the human heart. People are unpredictable, and I'm a fickle person, so ah, this game is considered to be our win. ”

The woman in red asked, "Why don't you want to kill me?"

Lin Futian said strangely: "Why don't you want to kill you? Are you really tired of living? and...... I'm not a righteous person, don't exalt me. Lin Futian leaned back slowly, and said lazily: "If you really want to die, you can just tell me your name." ”

The woman did not hesitate and blurted out: "Red chestnut".

Lin Futian coughed and said in surprise: "What's the matter with you?

The nine-tailed fox, whose real name is "Red Chestnut", said, "Do I have any other choice now?"

Lin Futian said, "How could it not be?" He pointed to the [Ancient Iron] on the table and said with a smile: "As long as the price is fair, we can discuss." ”

Hongli looked at Lin Futian, she didn't expect that someone would not want to get rid of herself, the demon who was making trouble in the red dust of the world, but would go to ...... "Why don't you want to kill me?" she asked.

Lin Futian was stunned, and said helplessly: "Your question is really strange, why don't I kill you?" Because I don't want to, does this need a reason?"

"But ......," Chestnut frowned.

Lin Futian waved his hand and said, "In my opinion, the world is fundamental

There is no absolute good and evil, the good person in our eyes may only do the good things we see, maybe he has done all the bad things in places we can't see, and the bad people in our eyes may have done a bad thing that we see, and there may be many good things behind the scenes that we can't see. We can't judge the whole of the person by the side of the person that they have shown. That's not right, it's a little cold. You refining red dust, you should know more about these things than me, why are you so confused today?"

Red chestnut muttered, "People?"

Lin Futian smiled and asked, "Aren't you?"

A smile appeared on Chestnut's face, "You're such a strange person. ”

Lin Futian smiled: "You too, and today is especially strange. ”

Red Chestnut smiled and asked, "How much money are you going to pay?"

Lin Futian spread his hands and said, "I've told you the truth, can't this offset the price of a [Ancient Iron]?"

Hongli said: "Lin Gongzi, I'm a businessman. ”

Lin Futian scratched his chin and said, "It's the same." He took out a purple gold coin and put it on the table, looked at the red chestnut, and asked, "What do you say?"

Hongli nodded, glanced at the money on the table, and smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth, the family emblem of the Lin family on the purple gold coin can already be regarded as a talisman, the man in front of her, does he want to save her life? She really doesn't understand what this person is thinking. A fox demon like her is the most despised by humans, and she wants to get rid of it quickly, but she didn't expect to meet a cultivator who has the means to leave her behind, but is willing to let herself live, and also wants to save her life.

People?

There was some joy in the bottom of Hongli's heart.

Lin Futian said, "Then the cooperation is pleasant?" He stretched out his hand and shook it with Hongli, who smiled: "Happy cooperation!"

took out the uniquely shaped [Ancient Iron] in the box, put it in Lin Futian in his hand, looked at it, and then nodded, "Well, it's okay." He looked at Luo Mei, who was now concentrating on the [Ancient Iron] in his hand, hooked his fingers, and said with a smile: "Sword?"

Luo Mei came back to her senses, took out the green bamboo sword, and handed it to Lin Futian, "Can this really be a sword?

Lin Futian took the green bamboo sword and said with a smile: "[Ancient Iron] is not iron?"

Luo Mei was a little embarrassed, it seemed that she was thinking about it, she secretly glanced at the woman named "Red Chestnut", and wondered if it would not be good for her.

Lin Futian smiled, "Don't worry, although [Ancient Iron] has the effect of suppressing demons and evils, it also depends on whether that person is really like a demon, this thing is used as a sword casting material, for you, it is actually a great thing, who in the future will not know that there is a Luomei woman with a green bamboo sword in her hand who is slaying demons and eliminating demons and supporting justice?"

When Lin Futian said this, Luo Mei's mind immediately appeared that he was admired by everyone on the rivers and lakes, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Red chestnut held his face with his hands and looked at Luo Mei with his mouth

Angular micro-movement.

It seems that she is also a little girl who does not know the world.

Lin Futian took the green bamboo sword in his hand, and gently wiped his fingers on the sword, and as his fingers moved, a layer of frost-colored white light gradually covered the sword.

The sword aura is so strong! Hongli looked at Lin Futian's movements in surprise.

This is...... Now you can start refining the sword?!Red Chestnut's eyes were full of brilliance, and he was amazed. I didn't expect this young boy to have such magical powers, no wonder there were always some strange people on the side.

While refining the sword, Lin Futian asked, "Miss Red Chestnut, do you have something to say?"

Hongli was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Aren't you going to refine the sword?"

Lin Futian smiled: "It's not in the way." ”

Hongli hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "What about the girl who was with you at the time? Why didn't you see it?"

Lin Futian smiled helplessly, and then said, "I really don't know how to answer your question. "That Long Yuexin doesn't know where she is cultivating now, her whereabouts, Lin Futian really doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know in the past, after all, what she wants is different, the Dao is different, there is no need to get involved together, otherwise, Lin Futian doesn't care, for her, it is a big hidden danger of the Great Dao, and in the end, she can't get the Great Dao, and she can't get freedom.

Thinking of this, Lin Futian suddenly had a headache, he had to find an opportunity to go to the imperial capital and dissolve the marriage contract, he couldn't just tell His Majesty with a letter, he just went to dissolve the marriage contract himself. Neither bothering his family, nor bothering Long Yuexin, who is dedicated to cultivating. What I promised her, I still have to do it.

Hongli saw that Lin Futian had no intention of answering his question, so he stopped asking.

Something must have happened between them? I remember when I first met that innocent little girl, she still liked her. People are the best when they are young, and after that, the more people grow up, the more boring they become. However, she stared at the one in front of her and smiled, this one was different.

Hongli suddenly sighed: "It seems that life will only become interesting when people become boring." ”

Lin Futian's hand kept moving, [Ancient Iron] didn't know how he used to melt it into "molten iron", at this moment, it was difficult to see its original cyan appearance of the green bamboo sword that had become snow-white, and the [Ancient Iron] that was melted into molten iron formed an oval silver light shell, wrapping the green bamboo sword. Luo Mei, who had been staring at the side, rubbed her astringent eyes, feeling more focused than Lin Futian.

Starflower's wings fluttered slightly, and the white robe on it moved, and there was a little white light in her blue eyes that kept flickering. She could see what kind of changes were taking place in the wrapped green bamboo sword, at this moment the green bamboo sword was still the same as before, but on this basis, the essence of ancient iron was added, if she guessed correctly, after the end of the sword refining, the weight of the green bamboo sword will not increase or decrease, and those "molten iron" will instead become ordinary molten iron, no longer the material of sharpening iron like clay. Estimated also

You can recycle it and cast something like ordinary iron.

Lin Futian lowered his head and asked, "Do you want to carve a name on the sword?"

When Luo Mei heard this, she thought carefully for a long time, and it wasn't until Lin Futian urged her again that she said with a little twist: "Qingzhu, it's okay to engrave the word Qingzhu." ”

Lin Futian said with a smile: "Qingzhu, but it is like its sword, worthy of its name. ”

Zhao Jing covered her mouth and chuckled. Lin Futian was joking with Luo Mei again.

After Xifeng put his hands on his back, he hadn't seen him change his clothes for many days, and Lin Futian once asked him if you don't stink like this? It wasn't until one time Lin Futian saw him standing by the river, the breeze and green water lingering, and when he quickly shuttled between his sleeves, Lin Futian apologized. At that time, the west wind that did not change his face only shook the wind and water between the sleeves of his clothes, and all of them smashed towards Lin Futian, he looked at Lin Futian who was "running away", and only said one sentence: "Don't pretend to be stupid, Lin Gongzi." ”

Lin Futian secretly moved flowers and trees at that time, and led the wind and water smashed by the west wind towards him to Zhao Jingzhi. The west wind flashed away and appeared in front of Zhao Jingzhi, so the water balloon smashed down, and the west wind was like a "soup chicken", and now, the clothes were really unclean. Afterwards, Lin Futian made fun of Xifeng about this incident, so the next day Lin Futian was "retaliated" by Xifeng. For such a person, Zephyr really can't understand some of his behaviors, and he has never seen such a contradictory person who can be very self-consistent.

Xifeng looked at Lin Futian's sword refining technique, and nodded secretly, to tell the truth, this person does have some ability.

Lin Futian slowly wrote the word "green bamboo" on the green bamboo sword with the fingers of his right hand, and then melted the "molten iron" that had lost its god again into its previous appearance, and handed the newly cast green bamboo sword and iron ball to Luo Mei. Luo Mei took the Qingzhu sword, looked at the word "Qingzhu" written on the sword, and was overjoyed, she gently shook a few sword flowers, took the sword, sighed, and asked, "Why does this sword feel the same as before?"

Lin Futian smiled: "Of course, this is because of my superb craftsmanship. ”

Luo Mei stuck out her tongue, feeling that Lin Futian was talking nonsense again, and rolled her eyes at him.

Lin Futian didn't care, took out a fried chestnut from his sleeve, and began to eat it.

Seeing that Lin Futian was so leisurely, Hongli stopped talking a little.

Lin Futian glanced at her and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just ask if you want to, and I will try my best to answer you." ”

Hongli hesitated: "It's still the same question as before...... Why don't you have prejudice against our demon clan?" she picked up the amethyst coin on the table and said, "This is also, why do you want to risk the world's condemnation to save my life?"

Lin Futian leaned back in his chair, looked at Hongli, and said calmly: "The girl is serious, this is not enough to risk the world's disapproval." What others say, let them say whatever they want, what I do and what they say are completely different things. Speaking of this, Lin Futian ate another fried chestnut, put the chestnut shell on the table, and said vaguely: "It seems that you still haven't practiced enough, and refining red dust can't be too rigid."

Think more, see more, feel more. Otherwise, you'll just waste your time in the red dust. I know you have a long life, but you can't waste it like this, right?"

Hongli thought for a moment and nodded slightly, she looked at Lin Futian and said with emotion: "What kind of human are you?"

Lin Futian said with a smile: "Since all things are born in nature, then all things should be equal." Treat all aliens as if they were your own, and everything will be much easier. You can't completely deny a race by accident, you have to see and feel more. For me, that's true of everything. Even if it's a demon cult, I'm sure there will be some good people. Otherwise, God would be disappointed......"

Red chestnut asked, "What about you?" ...... Disappointed?"

Lin Futian replied: "There used to be, but now it's better." ”

Red chestnut stared thoughtfully at the table and began to fall silent.

Lin Futian suddenly sat up, lay on the counter, and looked at Hongli.

"Huh?" Hongli looked at Lin Futian staring at him suspiciously, his eyelashes trembling slightly.

Lin Futian smiled: "You were asking questions before, now I'll ask you questions." ”

Hongli was stunned for a moment, her red eyes trembled slightly, and then she smiled and said, "You ask, I'll try to answer you as much as I can." ”

Lin Futian didn't care about the strange eyes of the people around him, including Xinghua, he smiled, took out a few fried chestnuts with sugar from his sleeve, and asked with a smile, "Do you like to eat fried chestnuts?"

“...... Huh?" Red Chestnut was a little stunned.
