Lu Zhan had a hunch that after this meeting, Steward Liu would come to the door again, and a duel between them would not be far away.

So he was ruthless and wanted to improve his martial arts attainments in a short period of time.

And if you want to ascend beyond the norm, you can only rely on the magical effect of the crystal refreshing elixir effect in your body to give yourself a fierce medicine!

So he increased the consumption of "Yangyuan Dan" from two to three.

This is a big adventure beyond the limit, when the three "Yangyuan Dan" entered the abdomen at the same time, the dantian was like an explosion, and the violent swelling sensation made his abdomen painful and unbearable.

He hurriedly activated the qi and vein operation method he had learned in his dream, and transported that huge amount of energy to all parts of his body, channeling it.

In an instant, the scorching heat spread all over his body through the veins, and he only felt that the veins in his body were as if he had been stabbed by thousands of steel needles, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted.

Lu Zhan endured the severe pain and used all his strength to run the qi over and over again, and slowly, the stinging pain in his veins began to soothe and the heat decreased.

After several attempts to go beyond the limit, he felt that his physique had changed significantly, as if his veins were much thicker than before, and his qi was flowing more smoothly than before.

With the successful strengthening of his physique, he has also made rapid progress in the cultivation of "Wolf Tooth Cracked Empty Palm", and the qi condensed in his palm when splitting his palm is even more refined and powerful.

In the past, I was exhausted after three or five palms, but now, I can do it for a long time, as if I have endless energy in my body.

After hard training to achieve this result, Lu Zhan's martial arts attainments can be regarded as officially entering the late stage of the bone forging realm, and he is about to enter the peak stage.

On this day, he supervised the practice of the three teams of Blue Belt Nurses in the training ground, and suddenly saw Tie Song walking over quickly, and said to him urgently: "Lu Zhan, you quickly take your team's brothers to the 'Qinglian Village' in the north of the city, I heard that there is a small group of bandits from the 'Ghost Face Cliff' in that area, and we are worried that they will go to disturb the 'Qinglian Village'." After all, that 'Qinglian Village' is the courtyard of our fifth miss. ”

Lu Zhan answered, and hurriedly ordered his brothers in his team to prepare.

Tie Song called out to Lu Zhan, who was about to leave, and said, "Brother Lu, I know you can fight, but if you encounter the bandits of the 'Ghost Face Cliff', I hope to show some mercy and punish them a little, just let them go, don't kill anyone." ”

"Why?" Lu Zhan looked at him puzzled: "I have also heard of the murderous name of this 'Ghost Face Cliff', it is said that killing people is like hemp, and it is extremely cruel, and even the evil deeds of slaughtering villages and villages can be done. It is a scourge for such wicked people to remain in the world, and if they see one, they must kill another. ”

Tie Song sighed and said, "It's because they are so murderous and extremely murderous that I want you not to offend them." They have the support of the 36-Route Anti-Army Alliance behind them, and these 36-Route Anti-Army even dare to act against the imperial court, so how can they have any scruples? In their eyes, our Lu Mansion can only be regarded as a bigger ant. This huge force our Lu Mansion can't afford to offend, so if you encounter them this time, it's best if you can drive them away, if you can't get rid of them, even if you give up 'Qinglian Village', you don't hesitate, as long as you protect the safety of the people in the village." Anyway, we must not offend them, lest we invite the disaster of destruction. ”

It seems that this world is really chaotic to the point of no return, even those arrogant nobles have to bow their heads in the face of murderers, and only the strong strength in this world can occupy all the truth!

As soon as Lu Zhan and the guards got on their horses and rushed out of the gate of the Lu Mansion, they saw a black horse popping out of the door, and the fifth lady came in full armor and shouted to Lu Zhan: "Lu Zhan, I'll go with you." ”

Lu Zhan stopped the momentum of rushing forward and persuaded: "Fifth Miss, you better not go, we have received an order, if we can't keep the manor, maybe we have to give it up." You're going to feel bad there. ”

The fifth lady hurriedly said: "It's nothing if a manor is lost, but Xiao Yan is in that manor, I'm afraid that something will happen to her." ”

"What, where is Xiao Yan?" Lu Zhan was shocked when he heard this.

The fifth lady nodded: "Yes, because I was going to live there for a while, so that I could study martial arts exercises quietly, so she went there a few days early to take care of it, I didn't expect to be involved in ......"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Lu Zhanhuo shake off the reins and urge the horse to gallop forward.

"Qinglian Village" is the private residence of the fifth lady of Lu Mansion.

It is located in the eastern suburbs of Yunmeng City, about fifty miles away from Lu Mansion. The manor is next to the green Chu River, every summer, the pond in the village is full of lotus flowers, the fragrance is refreshing, the green leaves are full of eyes, the scenery is very beautiful, the name "Qinglian Village" is from this.

Every summer, Miss Wu will come to this annex to escape the heat.

However, at this time, it was late autumn and early winter, and it was customary that Miss Fifth would not come to this manor to stay. But after this year's "martial arts examination", she got a difficult and difficult to learn advanced martial arts in Jinyan Hall, and wanted to find a quiet place to retreat and practice, so she thought of "Qinglian Village".

Xiao Yan arrived at "Qinglian Village" a few days earlier, and she took a dozen servants to clean the manor for two days before cleaning the manor.

On this day, she was feeding the koi in the pond on the edge of the lotus pond, when she suddenly heard a commotion outside the gate, and several family members ran over in a panic.

"Sister Xiaoyan, it's not good!" the family shouted to her with a frightened face: "There are bandits who have killed her!"

"What, there are bandits!" Xiao Yan gasped and asked urgently, "How many bandits are here?"

"I don't know," the family turned pale: "The little one only saw thick black smoke coming out of the village in front of him, and the village was full of the sound of crying fathers and mothers, and the villagers were running in the direction of our Zhuangzi, looking at the scene, it seemed that the village had been slaughtered!"

Xiao Yan's face changed greatly, and his heart was in a panic. But after all, she was Miss Five's personal maid, and she was the highest-ranking of these people, so she had to keep her composure, if even she panicked, those domestic servants would have no idea.

"Let's go, let's see. Suppressing the fear in her heart, she headed for the door.

At the gate of the manor, the four Blue Ribbon Guardians were looking out of the door with solemn expressions. Since Miss Fifth has not officially left the house, Xiao Yan only brought four Blue Ribbon nurses with her on this trip.

Xiao Yan ran to the gate and looked at a fishing village not far from "Qinglian Village".

I saw that the fishing village had been plunged into a sea of fire, and the sky above the village was covered with billowing black smoke, and there were terrible cries and screams from the village, interspersed with horses' hooves and shouts of killing.

Some villagers fled from the village, helping the old and the young, crying and fleeing in the direction of "Qinglian Village".

"Oh no, these villagers are going to lure the bandits over. One of the nurses cursed.

Several domestic servants were even more panicked: "Then let's run away." ”

"Escape?" the guardian shook his head and pointed in the direction of the village: "The murderer is so close, I'm afraid it's too late!"

I saw that a team of people and horses had rushed out of the village, and they galloped in the direction of "Qinglian Village".

"What should we do then?" said the servants, hugging each other and crying, "Oh, we're going to die this time!"

"Surely they could not escape from them, for they had fast horses and bows and crossbows, and whoever they saw running away was immediately shot and killed. The courtyard beckoned to all the servants: "You guys quickly retreat into the manor and hide, we will guard the gate, and when they come, they will show the signboard of Yunmeng City's 'Lu Mansion', hoping that those guys can take care of the prestige of the mansion and let us go." ”

All the families ran into the manor as they were told, and everyone scattered and found a place to hide.

Xiao Yan ran into a room with a maid, and the two closed the door, hugged each other tightly, and trembled violently. The maid cried faintly: "Xiaoyan, I'm so scared. ”

Xiao Yan was as scared as she was, but she forced her spirit to persuade her: "Don't be afraid, our Lu Mansion is the biggest family in Yunmeng City, and those bandits don't dare to do anything to us." ”

But before she could finish speaking, she heard shouting and scolding from the direction of the gate, and the group of bandits had already rushed out of the door. As soon as the guard who was guarding the door showed the name of the Lu Mansion, he heard a scream and was unceremoniously shot by the other party.

Immediately there was a fierce clash of knives and guns in the direction of the gate, and there were a few screams in between, and after a short while, the sound of fierce fighting died down, and there was a chaotic sound of footsteps rushing into the gate—the bandits rushed in.

Xiao Yan and the maid were so frightened that they hurriedly went under the bed.

As soon as he climbed under the bed, he heard the door be kicked open, and a few big feet stained with mud and blood entered the room, and those feet circled around the room, and suddenly stopped in front of the bed.

A very ugly face leaned under the bed, looked at the two women hiding under the bed, and said with a strange smile: "It turned out to be two little ladies, brothers, you can enjoy the blessings." ”

The bandits laughed wildly, and dragged the two girls out from under the bed, the ugly-faced man glanced at Xiao Yan, waved his hand to stop the bandit who was about to pull her clothes, and said: "This little girl looks quite standard, leave it to our captain, and the other one......" He pinched the maid's cheek and looked at it, and said, "It's for you." ”

After saying that, he grabbed Xiao Yan's arm and dragged him out of the room, and the bandits laughed loudly, pounced on the poor maid like wolves, and several strong men scrambled to press her body and tear her clothes......

The ugly-faced man walked out of the room with Xiao Yan and came to the courtyard outside.

I saw several bandits standing in the center of the courtyard with fierce expressions and fierce eyes.

The leader was a tall, thin man wearing a black cloak and a piece of green cloth over his face, and the masked bandit held a wrought copper square in his right hand, and wore a black metal bracer on his wrist, on which was painted a grimace with a hideous face and red eyes and fangs, and it seemed that this masked bandit was the leader of the gang of bandits.

At this time, a family member was pulled out of the house by the bandits, and he ran to the feet of the masked bandit, hugged the thighs of the bandit leader, and begged with tears in his eyes: "Grandpa spares his life! ”

The masked bandit leader kicked the family away, and said with a "bah" sound: "We Ghostface Cliff only spare one kind of people's lives, and that is the person who is willing to serve Ghostface Cliff." ”

Jia Ding hurriedly patted his chest and said, "The little one is willing to serve the Ghost Face Cliff, and the little one is willing." ”

The masked bandit leader said disdainfully: "Stinky boy, are you willing to be happy with us?" You kid can't be skinny, you have the strength to fight, and you're wasting food in vain. ”

Seeing that there was no hope of begging for mercy, the family pulled out their feet and fled in the direction of the gate.
