Sister Miao Miao has a secret, which Bai Shan has always known, but this secret seems to be through Sister Miaomiao's original family.

He had asked tentatively, but Sister Miao Miao didn't seem to want to say, so he didn't want to ask again.

At this time, Bai Shan took the dark gourd, glanced at the four or five gourds still hanging from Bai Miaochan's waist, and said, "I thought these gourds were filled with condiments." ”

Bai Miaochan blinked and said with a smile: "You usually look weak and weak, but as a sister, I have to find some way to protect you." ”

Bai Shan said: "You look weaker, okay?" ”

Bai Miaochan said helplessly: "Who made me two years older than you?" If you are an older sister, you should take care of your younger brother. ”

Bai Shan didn't quarrel with her, and said lightly: "Today I'm going to chop wood." ”

As he spoke, he got up, grabbed a hemp rope from the corner of the wall and wrapped it around his waist, took a hat and put it on, grabbed an axe and pinned it to his waist, and finally took an oil-paper umbrella.

Bai Miaochan looked at him, suddenly shouted "Wait", then got into the small bedroom facing east and west on the side, took out a rusty jar from under the bed, looked at the only ten cents in it, took out three cents, and then put the jar and ran to Bai Shan's side.

She stuffed the three pennies into the young man's hand, and said: "Buy two white steamed buns on the road, it takes effort to chop wood, even if you are in good health, you may not be able to hold it."

Also, the old woman's house lives in Xihongwa Lane, the first family in the lane, you say you are my brother, the old woman also recognizes, you cut firewood can be piled up in her small yard first. ”

Bai Shan looked at Sanwen Qian and said, "You usually go to chop wood, how do you solve lunch?" ”

Bai Miaochan said: "I have a good relationship with that old woman, and I rubbed it in her house." ”

Bai Shan stuffed back the three coins and said, "Then I'll solve it myself." ”

With that, he pushed the door, held an umbrella, and walked out of the leaky hut.

Soon, he heard footsteps behind him.

Bai Miaochan chased after him, stuffed the money into his pocket, and her little face was full of anger: "Money can be earned again!" ”

After speaking, she crossed her hands, used it as a small umbrella to block the top of her head, and ran back under the eaves, and then tiptoeed and waved goodbye to Baishan.

Bai Shan shouted, "I'll come back early." ”

Bai Miaochan smiled and responded, "Hmm." ”

Only then did Bai Shan turn around, take two steps, and Bai Miaochan's voice came from behind him, "If you meet a bad person, remember to use it." ”

Bai Shan understood that the eldest sister was talking about ecstasy.

The eldest sister knows him, he likes to go straight, and he doesn't like to use these insidious gadgets, and the eldest sister is afraid that he will drill the tip of the horns, so I will remind you extra.

Bai Shan said casually: "I may not really encounter it." ”

Bai Miaochan looked serious and said stubbornly: "I have to use it when I meet you!" ”

Bai Shan replied helplessly: "Okay, I promise you." ”

Bai Miaochan smiled at this time.

When I looked at it again, Bai Shan had already left the small courtyard.

The boy lowered the umbrella slightly.

The old oiled paper creaked and rattled, barely blocking the bleakness of the west wind.

The autumn cold rain particles "snapped" and fell on the umbrella surface, spun and bounced off, fell into the mud, splashed water, stained the straw sandals, and froze the toes a little cold.

The ten toes of the young man tightened tightly, and his right hand touched the short axe on his waist, and he walked into the autumn rain.

...

...

"In this world, there is little information about martial arts, and the dynasty prohibits talking about any topics related to martial arts, unless you are a registered martial artist."

"And the exercises are even more difficult to obtain, the exercises are regarded as forbidden books, unless they are licensed, all transcriptions are strictly prohibited, and copying is a crime, which can lead to death..."

"Those who have money and connections can enter the imperial court; related, able to get started; As for entering the martial arts hall, it is the lowest requirement, and only some money is required..."

Bai Shan sighed secretly in his heart, he originally wanted to save some money and then go to the martial arts hall called "South Wind Little Bird Boxing" in the county, but this year is really unfavorable, and the money is worthless.

The few money he had saved with great difficulty were also spent on food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the hope of going to the martial arts hall was completely ruined, and if he continued to spend it like this, even if he had the terrible talent of [Equivalent Exchange], I am afraid that it would be useless.

"The Lu family is a big family, there are people in the underworld and the white road, today I blocked the way of the son of the Lu family, and the matter is definitely not over. If there is no chaos this year, maybe the eldest master can still talk about it.

However, now that there is chaos everywhere and people dying everywhere, it is difficult to say. I have to find a way as soon as possible, it's best to find a backer, or be able to leave Taohua County with my eldest sister. ”

"Forget it, I'm afraid it's not okay to leave, this year there is news outside, saying that the earth dragon has turned over, the evil qi is surging, the demons and monsters are endless, people pray to the fairy gods, but where will the fairy gods care about the mud legs in the corners here?"

"Then you have to find a backer... I have to expose my strength, but once I do so, I have violated the ban and will be escorted to the prison for interrogation. What a dead end with no solution... What kind of world is this? ”

White Mountain hurried through the streets.

Suddenly, his expression moved slightly, and a sense of danger came from the side alleyway, like a needle piercing his face.

He walked at the same speed, still unhurried, but he quickly glanced at it, it was a dead end, the tall walls made the alley a little dark, and the two families in the alley were closed doors, the source of danger could not be determined, nine times out of ten in the two families in the alley.

Bai Shan retracted his gaze, the reason why he was able to sense it was because of the "premonition of danger" provided by the ninth layer of the Tiger Spirit Fist.

If it is only a martial artist who has cultivated ordinary exercises, or a martial artist who has cultivated Tiger Spirit Fist and has not reached the ninth layer, he will not have this ability.

He quickened his pace and hurriedly walked to the west of Taohua County, his eyes swept in the red tile lane, but he didn't go in to find the old woman that his sister said.

Seeing that he was in the middle of the city, he came to a vendor who was carrying a burden and hiding under a tarpaulin to sell steamed buns.

"Little brother, how much is a steamed bun?"

"Two texts and one for one."

"You had three or two steamed buns before, right?"

"It's not that there is no way, the price of food has risen again, and the cost of this steamed bun has also increased."

"But, now that the steamed buns are cold, it's still two of Sanwen, right?"

"If you buy a dozen or so, I'll give you a penny cheaper, just buy two, that's definitely not good."

"Forget it, I'll buy one."

Baishan discharged two cents, and the vendor lifted the white cloth, revealing the white steamed buns covered inside.

Bai Shan took one and said, "Wrap it in oiled paper." ”

"Hey, just buy a steamed bun and ask for oiled paper, no."

Bai Shan's eyes moved, and he saw that under the tent of the noodle shop in front of him, there was a child in brocade clothes who had just finished eating noodles and baked cakes, and only then left with an umbrella under the pull of a plump woman, and the oil paper wrapped in the baked cakes was still there, so he ignored the vendor, walked past the noodle shop and took away the oil paper, and then wrapped the steamed buns and put them in his arms.

There is no way, the poor are only like this, Baishan has also seen people follow the rich children, the child picks his mouth, eats noodles or eats baked cakes only half of it, and leaves after eating, this front foot only leaves, and a bunch of people flock up behind him, eating and drinking the rest of the child's food.

With food in my arms, my heart is a little more steady.

He touched the axe on his waist, and his fingertips ran through the small dark gourd hidden in his belt, and then walked out of the county gate quickly.

To the northwest of Taohua County is a place called the Black Wind Forest, where logging for firewood is generally on the periphery of the forest, but basically it is to chop side branches or pick up some cold branches that have fallen to the ground.

However, the cold branches have long been picked up, and if you want to get firewood, you must use an axe to chop it, and this is the level of using an axe in the school.

If it is not used well, it will not be long before an axe is useless, and the price of an axe is not cheap.

Click, click, click, click...

The branches of the tree broke off one after another, and in a short time they piled up half a person's height.

Bai Shan took out the hemp rope, tied the firewood, then yawned, sat down on the stone under an old tree, leaned against the tree, closed his eyes slightly, and recuperated.

Suddenly, the stinging needle poked again, and the previous sense of danger resurfaced.

The white mountain was recognized, and the direction was southeast.

He leaned sideways, leaned to the northwest, inserted his fingers between his belt, quickly took out the dark gourd, and then paused for a moment, according to his heart, he definitely did not want to use this ecstasy.

But thinking of his sister's advice, he still picked the gourd plug with his thumb, poured a lot of white powder inside into the palm of his hand, then held it, stuffed the plug back with his right hand, hid the gourd, and then grabbed the axe.

The masters in the county have cultivated their true qi after standing up to the sky, but they are all characters with heads and faces, and they are not enough to quietly follow him as a nobody.

Well, when you can fight.

It's just that in this way, he is likely to expose the fact that he knows martial arts.

Da...

Da Da...

The footsteps are getting closer, and undisguised, clearly provocative.

Bai Shan pretended not to know, and when he was a few meters away, he was awakened from a dream, and looked behind him at the same time.

It was a gray-clothed man who was also wearing a hat, with a short knife pinned to his waist, and the blade was made of black iron, which looked worth some money, at least this was not something that poor people like Bai Shan and Bai Miaochan could afford.

Bai Shan instinctively clenched the short axe, took two steps back, and shouted in horror: "You, you... Who is it? ”

The man in gray looked at his face, and after confirming his target, he didn't say much, let out a cruel laugh, and immediately drew his knife and pounced on him.

Bai Shan hurriedly rolled over, and he didn't care about taking the firewood on the ground, so he ran into the depths of the forest in a panic.

The man in gray is like a cat playing with a mouse, following him without hesitation.

The two of them went one after the other, and soon reached the depths of the Black Wind Forest.

A river in the dense forest blocked the way to Baishan, and the young man hurriedly turned back.

The man in gray laughed strangely and drew his knife again.

Suddenly, his movements faltered.

Because... The prey he was chasing suddenly had a strange change.

The boy took off his hat, shook it off, lowered his head, bowed his head, was speechless, wore his hair, and stood in the autumn rain.

The west wind blew, revealing his sackcloth that had long been wet and clinging to his body, and the muscles that bulged like thick iron under the sackcloth and stretched open his clothes.

A fierce momentum that ordinary people would never have rose up.

The man in gray looked at the young man in front of him, as if he was looking at a tiger in a barren mountain that chose people to devour.

He couldn't help but shudder, goosebumps all knotted, but then a strong sense of shame rushed into his heart, would he be afraid of this little thing??

The gray-clothed man snorted coldly, swung his knife forward, and said with a cruel smile: "Little mud leg, where did you steal kung fu?" Let's be honest!! ”
