Chapter Eighty-Four: Fengkou Town
Windfall Town.
A majestic mountain, stretching for thousands of miles, entrenched in the north, from a distance, he is like a pair of scissors, there is a huge gap in the middle, there is also a mountain tuyere where the cold wind invades from the north, so this mountain is also named Fengzui Mountain.
Fengkou Town is located at the pass of Fengzui Mountain, which is also the only large town within a radius of 100 miles in the sparsely populated Fengzui Mountain area.
Because there were not a few swordsmen who tried in Fengzui Mountain in previous years, most of them would stay and replenish when they passed through this town, or directly trade items locally, and this town was still prosperous.
It was early in the morning, when it was dawn, and the town was already crowded, whether it was a swordsman who was preparing to enter the mountain for a trial, or people who arrived from all over the world, they all gathered here.
In addition, next month is the Sword Pavilion's Sword Conference, this annual grand event, and it is also a very attractive event, which can not only get rich rewards and points, but also increase popularity, who doesn't want to show their faces, gain favor, and seek a future.
Therefore, in the early stage of the Sword Conference, there were not a few people who went to various places to test and improve their strength, or to do some small business preparations.
Fengzui Mountain is sparsely populated, and there are often sword beasts haunting, but the level of sword beasts is not very high, and it is generally the first choice for rookie swordsmen.
And continue to the north, close to the Sword Beast Forest, where it is even more desolate, and it is also extremely dangerous, even the swordsman strength of the person, also have to form a team of at least two or three people, in order to be able to get what they need in that vast forest, as for some dangerous areas, the swordsmen go, I am afraid there is no return.
Although it has entered the summer, it is very cool when the cool breeze blows by near the tuyere of this Fengzui Mountain.
On the road not far from Fengkou Town, pedestrians keep rushing here.
Among them, a young man of about fifteen years of age, dressed in a cloth coat, carrying a robe and an ordinary sword, was of medium but strong stature, and his wheat-colored skin appeared healthy and ruddy, and at first glance he looked like a peasant boy from the countryside.
Although the young man looks ordinary, walking among those pedestrians, it is not eye-catching, and people are too lazy to pay attention to such an ordinary teenager, but the young man's eyes, bright and dark, with a maturity and precocious wisdom that are different from ordinary people, and a kind of sword intent that is not noticed by anyone.
This ordinary teenager who is not noticed by anyone, and will even be regarded as from the countryside, is none other than Nie Lin.
Nie Lin's previous life was already accustomed to the ascetic life of mushroom hair drinking blood, he was outside these days, basically sleeping in the open air, drinking some cool and sweet stream water or river water when he was thirsty, and when he was hungry, he directly hunted some prey to barbecue, and when he rested, he sat quietly between heaven and earth, meditating and feeling the changes in the qi of heaven and earth to cultivate, and dissipate at ease.
Although in some jungles and grasslands, there are mist and poisonous miasma, and there are also poisonous insects and beasts, which often make it difficult for people to move an inch, but for Nie Lin, who has a small spirit and a unique skill, he is not afraid.
Since leaving the boundary of Bazhou City, Nie Lin has always been down-to-earth, step by step, quietly feeling the pulse of the earth, the rhythm of mountains and rivers, keeping company with fish, insects, birds and beasts, and strange flowers and plants, and taking some useful herbs and plants or exotic flowers and fruits along the way.
This kind of unrestrained life, accompanied by heaven and earth, makes people feel open and clear, which not only sublimates Nie Lin's state of mind, but also makes his comprehension and cognition of pharmacological knowledge more profound.
All things in heaven and earth, qi began to change, living beings evolved, and everything came from the mystery of nature.
In his previous life, he comprehended a variety of sword intents through this mysterious change in nature, so as to finally fuse them, coupled with the awakening of solitary annihilation, and learned from the sword dao intent of solitary annihilation, so as to comprehend and condense the 'true soul of the sword', and break through the realm of sword venerable in one fell swoop.
Now I am once again attached to nature and listen to the songs of heaven and earth, and I have a different feeling.
Nie Lin walked in this way all the way, he didn't deliberately operate the essence in his body, and the sword intent that he recalled and comprehended when he felt the natural changes was all inadvertently and between the changes in his state of mind, he naturally completed the transformation to the sword qi containing this sword intent.
In this world, there are many swordsmen, and each swordsman takes a different path, so he can comprehend different sword intents, including the thunder, lightning, wind and rain in the laws of nature, the incompatibility of water and fire, and the yin and yang in the laws of life, the priorities, in the final analysis, are inseparable from the way of the sword to the realm of false and true.
A "true" word can attribute everything to the infinite truth, which is the sword path that Nie Lin wants to comprehend in this life.
The state of mind is changing with nature, and the action is involuntarily under the control of his subconscious, Nie Lin came to Fengkou Town with the flow of people, he didn't know it.
In the midst of all the noise, I came back to my senses and found that I had arrived at Fengkou Town.
The sky is getting brighter, and the town of Fengkou is also starting to be lively, and the shops are also open, and there are all kinds of buying and selling, and the shouting continues.
Nie Lin didn't plan to stay in Fengkou Town, but after arriving in the town, he directly found a grocery store that had just opened, and bought some common sundries such as fire triggers, ropes, and short daggers for cutting meat.
After leaving the grocery store, Nie Lin bought some salt and condiments in a small shop, bought some baked biscuits and grains at the street stall and put them in his baggage, and then went directly into the mountain.
......
The mountains are lush and green, and the towering giant trees block the light, obscuring the sky, forming a dim forest world.
Although there are also raptor sword beasts that pop out of the grass and bushes on the road, after all, this place is close to Fengkou Town, and it is also a peripheral area, some are ordinary beasts, and some are only the lowest level sword beasts, and they are not threatening.
After entering the mountain, I walked deeper, and after about half an hour, I suddenly opened up in front of me.
Here you can see a flat clearing, the mountains in the distance are undulating, like a backbone, the fog is misty, and you can't see the emerald green flowers in the depths, and when the sun shines down, the rows of wooden houses sit like building blocks under the mountains, dazzling.
This is the first trial camp in the sword beast infested area after entering the mountainous area.
As far as the pair is concerned, most of the sword beasts infested here are low-level sword beasts, such as saber-toothed wolves, sword-billed porcupines, sword-tailed snakes and other sword beasts, which are more suitable for some novice swordsmen to abuse and play to increase some actual combat experience.
Generally, swordsmen below the third level are here, if they are not alone, they are not in any danger, and the first-level sword beasts in the area around this edge are like reptiles like reptiles, just ants like ants in the depths of the mountain forest.
But going a little deeper, when you reach the range of the second trial camp, the sword beasts that infest there are much more ferocious, most of them are second- to third-level sword beasts, and even occasionally fourth-level sword beasts, and most of them are dangerous.
If a third-level little swordsman wants to train in the second trial area, without the team or a strong person above the fifth level to accompany him, there is only a dead end, and even the possibility of annihilating the group also exists.
Nie Lin didn't go to the first trial camp, and he didn't want to be seen, so he specially picked up some jungle areas that were a little remote and didn't have trialists to walk in.
