There is no calendar in the mountains, and the cold does not know the year.

Xiao Xiao and Lai Daxiong have both been promoted to official disciples for more than half a year, and the treatment conditions of the two are very different from the past. They moved out of the thatched hut and moved into a simple but not humble one-room house for their formal disciples.

On the day of the end of the month, in order to avoid Li Tan's retaliation again, Xiao Xiao drew a vivid picture of the Spring Palace with clear outlines, and asked someone to send it to Li Tan. I don't know if he tore it up or kept it for fun after receiving the picture, in short, he hasn't taken the initiative to provoke it for more than half a year.

Xiao Xiao also lived in a simple house, on the one hand, to recuperate from injuries, and on the other hand, to concentrate on cultivation.

During this period, Li Shiyi also sent someone to send healing and nourishing medicines, which aroused the envy of all the disciples, thinking that Xiao Xiao had entered the eyes of the big man and had a bright future, so they all showed their favor one after another.

Xiao Xiao is no longer called Xiao Xiao, his current name is Xiao Anyi.

As a backward member of the sect, he is listed as an ancestor, and it is clear that Li is very deliberately promoted.

Xiao Anyi (Xiao Xiao) knows that strength is the last word. On the rivers and lakes, how many demonic geniuses have fallen on the way to growth. Heaven and earth are unkind to all things as dogs, and there is no strength to control their own destiny, they are just you as fish and meat, people are swords, and you can be slaughtered by others at will.

In the past six months, Xiao Anyi's exercises have entered the third threshold. The first layer is reborn, and the old wounds are swept away. The second layer is to wash the meridians and meridians, and the qualifications tend to be perfect. On the third layer, heaven and man are one, communicating heaven and earth, and the inner strength and true qi are like rivers, endless, gushing.

He did not practice other swordsmanship, but continued to sharpen the Xiangfei sword to deepen his understanding and fit. He also often wandered under the Hui Wild Goose Pagoda, hesitating to go upstairs, because there were still eight earth-shattering sword moves waiting for him above. Able to pass through everything and hit his own swordsmanship that escaped into the void, if he is not born, he will definitely be shocked when he is born.

He believed that there must be someone in the sect who knew who the senior master at the top of the tower was, but he didn't dig deeper. Who is that, why it has nothing to do with him here, his fate is the nine-style sword move. Everything in the world has its cause, and if you force anything else, you will lose more than you gain.

Tianzhu Peak, one of the seventy-two peaks of Heng Mountain, is a little deserted here, because this is where the mountain gate courtyard of Yifeiyong is located.

Yi Feiyong bell rings and eats, wives and concubines are in groups, and there are no male servants in the courtyard, no matter how high or low, all beautiful women. Young girls, charming young women, Yan thin ring fat, everything.

Yi Feiyong sighed deeply, but unfortunately, he was no longer like this Tianzhu Peak, a pillar of optimism. He was almost half-lying in his chair, his body full of fat filling the gaps.

After Xiao Anyi saluted, he looked at Yi Feiyong, who was sitting paralyzed, a little stunned, how could a person who practiced martial arts be fat like this?

"I'm sick." Yi Feiyong said suddenly.

Xiao Anyi was stunned, only to see Yi Feiyong continue to look constipated and said: "It is said that there is a medical hall in Hengyang City recently, which is selling the rejuvenation elixir Capture Dragon Pill. You drop by and bring me some back. ”

The elixir of rejuvenation is an aphrodisiac that helps affection, and Xiao Anyi is embarrassed. He feels a little thin-skinned, will he be laughed at when he buys this at a young age? If it reaches the ears of the senior sister and sister, will you not be able to find your daughter-in-law?

Yi Feiyong continued to explain: "Your results in many monthly comparisons are only in the middle and upper, and this Hengyang City incident is very tricky, you are not qualified to deal with it, but Li Tan strongly recommends it, saying that you are talented and your strength is not bad, and I hope you will succeed immediately." ”

Sure enough, it's Li Tan again! Xiao Anyi was also curious about why the big man of Tianzhu Peak wanted to meet him today, it turned out that the surname Li was digging a pit for himself to jump.

"For us in business, high risk has high reward." Yi Feiyong said, Xiao Anyi wanted to interrupt him, you are also one of the four elders, a person who practices martial arts, but he didn't dare to speak out, and listened to him continue: "After communicating with Elder Gu from this seat, if you succeed in this trip, he will accept you as a personal disciple." ”

The personal disciple of the four elders? When the news was released, many disciples must have flocked to it. Would Li Tan be so kind to recommend himself? This trip is only afraid of danger. Xiao Anyi didn't dare to refuse, he couldn't say that I was afraid of death, I didn't dare to go, right? The sect provides you with shelter and a place to practice martial arts, and you naturally have to work for it.

Yi Feiyong was responsible for managing all the business dealings of the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect, and the news came from Hengyang City at the foot of the mountain that the Feihua Building, which had been protected by the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect and collected half of the profits, was occupied by the martial arts hero Zhang Haotian. Feihualou is the largest comprehensive entertainment venue in Hengyang City, integrating restaurants, gambling houses and fireworks venues. Now that it is occupied, not to mention that there is no annual income, it is a great blow to the reputation of the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect, and the sect naturally has to send people down the mountain to deal with it.

Xiao Anyi knew that it must have been Li Tan who heard that this Zhang Haotian was extremely powerful and very difficult, so he instigated Yi Feiyong to let him go, on the surface to recommend talents, but behind his back, he borrowed a knife to kill people.

"How many men do you want? I'll coordinate with Elder Li. Ifiyong asked.

Coordination means that he may not be able to guarantee manpower support.

Since ancient times, those who manage wealth are always subject to the management of others. So it is Li Shiyi who is below one person and above ten thousand, not Yi Feiyong.

Xiao An wanted to keep doing it, buddy played big this time, he said: "I don't need manpower, but I want to spend a little money." ”

Hengyang City. It is very prosperous, with a lot of traffic and businessmen.

It seems that the streets are very narrow, the housing is very small, and the consumption is very high.

Throughout history, wealth has been in the hands of a few. The enjoyment of the rich has always been provided for by countless poor families.

Behind the prosperity, the more filthy and sad it is.

Xie Dalang felt that his body was dirty, but his heart was not, so he was very sad. He was lying in a damp and dark room, his bed smelling musty. He struggled to flip his numb body, which caused him to cough violently. Xie Xiaomei, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, hurriedly flicked his chest to help smooth his breath.

Xie Xiaomei is very thin, her thin hair is yellow, her cheeks and eye sockets are deep, and her skin is blue. These are all signs of malnutrition.

Not to mention nutrition, they are already hungry. Everything is because of a serious illness of Xie Dalang.

Xie Dalang looked at his daughter distressedly, Xie Xiaomei has reached the age where she can get married, she should have been married to a good family earlier, and now that she has her own oil bottle, who would want it?

Xie Xiaomei's attention was not on her father, she secretly squinted at the young man squatting in the corner.

There were no stools on the four walls of the house, so he had to squat.

Xie Xiaomei has never seen such a handsome man, with fair skin, soft and flowing long hair, and a slightly thin figure with angular contours, which can be called flawless. There were faint scars on his face, and there was a magical light in his eyes, with a demonic charm.

She felt that he would bring great disaster, and she was willing to let it happen.

Xiao Anyi didn't know how long he had been squatting, and he didn't know how long he would have to squat. He knew that Xie Xiaomei was peeking at him, but he didn't want to provoke anyone or anything that could stir his inner emotions.

A rhythmic knock sounded at the door, which seemed to be the signal of the appointment,

Xie Xiaomei opened the door, and the fragrance was blowing. Hu Mei'er, who was dressed in plain clothes but could not hide her demonic figure, flashed in, followed by a lean young man. They walked up to the squatting Xiao Anyi and saluted, muttering something.

Xie Xiaomei thought that they had to discuss important matters, so she closed the door tightly and stood at the door through the crack to see if anyone was eavesdropping.

She was already satisfied with being able to do something for him. This is the feeling of a girl. She knew that he didn't belong here, and he had rented this place for so long, just for this "big thing".

"My name is Di Qing." The young man said to Xiao Anyi that he knew that this person with a calm face was his boss, and he found himself so mysteriously, he must have what he needed. He knows very well that he is just a street gangster, without strong martial arts and profound wisdom, he has nothing but a rotten life.

"It doesn't matter what your name is." Xiao An said expressionlessly, "When I first arrived in Hengyang City, I saw you crying secretly in an alley, which is very important. ”

Seeing yourself crying and trying to find yourself?

"Some people cry because they have lost a loved one, or because they have been wronged." Xiao Xiao stood up, put his hand on the young man's shoulder, and squeezed it hard, "But you're not, you're for your mother." ”

Di Qing's mother was seriously ill, and she was unable to extend the medical treatment, so she quietly cried sadly.

Xiao Anyi continued to say earnestly: "I believe that a person with filial piety, no matter how bad it is, is limited. I firmly believe that your filial piety will bring you endless courage, help you, and help me out of the predicament. ”

Hu Mei'er looked at Xiao Anyi meticulously explaining Di Qing's task with a confused look, and she felt that this treacherous Xiaoxiangmen man had a different kind of charm. Of course, she is used to seeing Fengyue, just appreciating. Regaining control of Feihualou is her goal.

Flower Willow Lane.

When you are unitary, the sun is thinning.

It was windy and the sky was washing.

There are no willows in Flower Willow Lane, let alone flowers and willows.

Hualiu Lane is very clean today, there are few pedestrians, only the old woman selling pears at the mouth of the alley has not closed her stall.

Zhang Haotian often buys a pear to quench his thirst when passing by, but today he didn't. He felt restless, and his right eyelid was pounding.

A doctor told him that his eyelids were jumping because he was not sleeping well and his eyes were tired.

The last time Zhang Haotian's eyelids jumped like this, he was surrounded by the enemy at the door of his house, he lost all his relatives, and it took a long time to recuperate.

He considers himself a gambler. Others gamble on money, but he gambles on life.

If your bet is fate, you will also bet as carefully as he did. So over the years, Zhang Da and Zhang Er have never left him, even if they go to the thatched house, even if they are happy with women, Zhang Da and Zhang Er will watch from a dark corner.

Zhang Dawei lost an arm for him, and Zhang Er lay in a hospital bed for him for half a year. Later, they forgot their original names and became Zhang Haotian's shadows, and they could share everything Zhang Haotian had.

When Zhang Haotian walked to the mouth of the alley, someone chased after him. Panting and said, "Brother Tian is not good! When someone comes to the scene to make trouble, the brothers are not easy to deal with. ”

Zhang Haotian stopped, his brain was not smart, so he was used to taking a moment to think in advance. He thinks that there are two meanings in the brothers' difficult handling, one is that the brothers do not want to deal with it, and the other is that the brothers cannot handle it. If it's the former, it's okay to say, if it's the latter, he is a little worried that he can't handle it, after all, he already knows who the real owner of Feihua Building is.

Zhang Haotian glanced at Zhang Er, Zhang Er turned around and went with the comer.

Zhang Er was not there, Zhang Haotian didn't even dare to enter the alley, he stood in front of the old woman's stall selling pears and waited for Zhang Er to come back.

When the old woman saw that the old customer was coming, she opened her mouth and shouted: "Fresh and sweet green pears, uncle buy one and try it." ”

Zhang Haotian didn't dare to move, although he drank for dinner, he was indeed a little thirsty. But he didn't believe the old woman, even if he knew her. He firmly believes that in this world, except for your parents, anyone will betray you, even your own children.

Zhang Er encountered an extremely tricky matter.

Zhang Er knew Di Qing and knew that he was a brave and ruthless gangster in this area. When Zhang Haotian took Feihualou, he also came in to drink free wedding wine.

This little gangster Di Qing slowly stripped off his shirt in front of him. Then he grabbed the knife he had with his right hand and shaved off the flesh and skin on his left hand. When he was shaved to the bones of his hand, he grinned and handed the knife to Zhang Er.

Jianghu people are so brave and ruthless, what I have done, you can do it, I will obey you.

Zhang Er looked at his bony left hand and the flesh on the table, and his scalp was numb. He looked back at his brothers, and it seemed that none of them had volunteered. He reluctantly and reluctantly took the knife handed over by Di Qing, fortunately, he had seen the wind and waves, and his hands did not tremble.

Sometimes it is easier to see death as home, but life is better than death.

On the side of Hualiu Lane, the old woman seemed to be dry-mouthed and did not attract customers.

The old woman was so thirsty that her kettle was empty. Reluctantly, she picked up a pear, wiped it casually, and stuffed it into her mouth.

It's so sweet.

Those who are all over Luo Qi are not silkworm breeders.

The old woman had been selling pears for a long time, and she was so hungry and thirsty that she had to eat one. Because at home, they still have to wait for this pear in exchange for a meager ration.

Zhang Haotian's eyes lit up and looked at Zhang Da.

Zhang Da walked over, threw down a piece of broken silver, and snatched the pear that the old woman had eaten.

Zhang Haotian looked at the pear that Zhang Da handed over and took two bites, and didn't notice anything unusual. He said, "You eat first." ”

Zhang Da was a little disappreciative in his heart, could it be that this pear could still be poisonous? He took a few bites and handed it to Zhang Haotian again.

Zhang Haotian took the half pear in his hand, but he still didn't take a bite.

Xiao Anyi slowly walked out of the alley, and the wind lifted the corners of his clothes. Everywhere he walked, it seemed to bring a bloody storm.

That's killing intent, murderous aura.

He walked up to the old woman who was selling pears, supported the old woman who still insisted on immortality with black blood flowing out of his seven orifices, and said softly: "Xie Dalang's illness has been cured, so you can go with peace of mind." ”

He thought of Xie Xiaomei, who was so excited, and stood at the door expectantly waiting for his grandmother to return from selling pears. She took the gold and silver she had given, and said words of thanks, and a hope that her grandmother would never have to suffer again.

Grandma no longer has to suffer, she has exceeded her mission in this life. For the sake of her children and grandchildren, she sacrificed everything, even her life.

"You don't have a helper now." Xiao Xiao still knelt on one knee to support the old man's gradually cold body, looked at Zhang Da who fell down, and said coldly to Zhang Haotian.

Zhang Haotian is ready to fight to the death.

Every time he comes to this life-and-death situation, he is surprisingly calm, which is also an important reason why he has been able to survive so many life-and-death fights.

The sword rises, and the blood falls.
