"According to your meaning, except for the leading eight-vein martial cultivator, the rest of you don't know who we are?" Nie Yun touched his chin and asked.

"That's right, that's right." The man in black nodded hurriedly: "I also hope that the young man will spare my life for the sake of the little honest explanation." ”

"Huh." Nie Yun smiled noncommittally: "Frankly speaking, I'm quite curious about what kind of price to pay to make you desperate." ”

"One thousand taels of silver plus one Pulse Breaking Pill." Since the most important thing has been said, there is no need to hide these details, in order to survive, the man in black immediately explained: "And as long as they come, they will pay a deposit of five hundred taels of silver first." ”

"That's it?" A hint of surprise flashed in Nie Yun's eyes, and he continued, "This can make you desperate?" ”

Nie Yun didn't care much about yellow and white things like gold and silver, and a Pulse Breaking Pill was only three hundred martial coins, which was no longer worth mentioning to Nie Yun today.

"Eh, Shaoxia is such a genius, he must be a student of Yuelu University." The man in black suddenly sighed faintly.

Nie Yun didn't deny it, and nodded slightly.

"That's right, do you know how difficult it is for someone like us who is not talented enough and wants to take two more steps in the martial arts." The man in black looked at Nie Yun with a hint of envy and melancholy in his eyes, and slowly spoke, and continued. "In order to break through the rebirth realm, I joined the army for a few years, and I fought all day to save military merits in exchange for a strong fruit, so I was lucky to break through the vein, barely reached the rebirth realm, and followed my position to the position of centurion."

"I thought that after breaking through the barrier of the rebirth realm, my talent might not be so bad, after all, the forging is difficult, and although there are not many examples of smooth journeys, it is not nothing. But... After all, the reality still gave me a slap in the face, my talent was really poor, after breaking through to the rebirth realm, through normal cultivation, there was almost no trace of a rise in the qi machine. ”

"I'm not reconciled." Speaking of this, the eyes of the man in black turned a little red: "After more than 20 years of hard training, I am not willing to stop there!" I went to the battlefield even harder, grabbed the merits, got the rewards, and exchanged everything that might help me improve my strength, but after all... Huh. ”

Nie Yun's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "As far as I know, the things in the Treasure Pavilion in the military army will not be less than those in our university hall. ”

"Yes, those things can be bought with war merits, and they can also be bought with silver." The man in black nodded a little excitedly: "But that's too expensive, if my rumors are good, the students of the Martial Arts Department of the University Hall will give you a thousand martial arts coins as soon as they enter the school, and you can easily buy top-level spells, Pulse Breaking Pill." But do you know that if a centurion has no military merits, his annual salary is only one hundred taels of silver, and the Broken Vein Pill needs more than two thousand taels of silver! ”

"More than two thousand taels of silver, even if I don't care about life and death, it will take at least five years to go crazy to the battlefield at the fastest and fastest!" The man in black gradually calmed down: "But how many five years do I have, this Broken Vein Pill Flower is five years for me, what about the next one?" Decade? Or longer? ”

The functions of the body cannot remain in a juvenile state forever, time will eventually slowly erode your body, making your meridian bones fragile, when you are dying, even if it is given to you for nothing, do you dare to eat?

"So I retired, there is no way to satisfy me in the army, I retired and became a casual cultivator, living a life of licking blood on the tip of the knife, experiencing several times of life and death, and finally breaking through to the fourth vein cultivation, as long as I get that vein-breaking pill, I can break through the fifth vein." The man in black suddenly became a little bitter: "But today it was still planted, in fact, I already knew that there would be such a day..."

Nie Yun was silent, maybe the man in black was a little evasive in his words, and he didn't dare to talk about what he did when he licked blood at the tip of his knife, but the military thing should be true... It should be true that he quit the army in desperation...

In the end, Nie Yun still didn't kill him, and handed it over to the nearest government office, and when the government knew that it was the three Yuelu students who were attacked and killed, they didn't dare to slack off, and quickly collected and sealed the body on the shore of Yishui Lake for follow-up investigation.

And the only survivor will spend the rest of his life in prison, or he will be beheaded directly, or his successful escape will depend on his own creation.

"Young man is so gracious, he will risk death in return one day." This was the last thing the man in black said to Nie Yun's back.

Nie Yun waved his hand, didn't respond to him, and didn't know how to respond to him, after all, he didn't really let him go, or sent him to the mansion, whether he could survive or not is two words.

After a brief inquiry about Nie Yun and the three of them, the government let them go back, after all, as long as they were not blind, they could see that this was an attack on the three of them, and before leaving, the government even gave the three of them a carriage, although it was not as comfortable as the original black-scaled carriage, but the rest of the road was also an official road, not as rugged as a small road, so it didn't matter.

Nie Yun sat in the carriage, a little distracted as he watched the rapidly changing scenery on both sides, and suddenly sighed, "Eh, I finally know why the University Hall is semi-mandatory for us to study at the same time. ”

"It's a cruel world out there." Han Yue nodded slightly, the experience of the man in black just now also touched her a lot.

They originally thought that if they took the road of martial arts cultivation, even if they were not talented enough, they could only reach the perfection of the forging body, then they would be able to worry about food and clothing, and if they were lucky, they would be able to become the so-called solid home, and they would be able to become a harmonious and beautiful family.

However, they ignore one thing, after you have suffered an unknown amount of suffering, when you just glimpse the gorgeous scenery of the corner of the martial arts, you are told how painful it is to have no talent.

I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light.

And one of the cruelest things about martial arts practice is to be told that your path ends when there is light as far as your eyes can see.

Dozens or even decades of hard work have been forced to come to a halt, and if you want to walk hard, you have to rely on money and fight with your life!

That's right, as a casual cultivator, even the way to make money can only be fought with their lives, and no one will teach them how to alchemy and how to make talismans...

Even if they get the booklet for refining the Huiqi Pill, they can't find a place for alchemy, and even if you are very lucky, you get the booklet by luck, and find an ownerless earth fire, but without the care of the master, you don't know how many medicinal materials you have to waste to practice the Huiqi Pill, and if you are unlucky, you have no experience in the earth fire riot, and you may even die.

If he was in his situation, what would he have done, or what would have happened if he hadn't met Master and Senior Sister? Nie Yun couldn't help but think of such a question.

Will you be willing to stop there and become a centurion and build a so-called solid home for the rest of your life?

Nie Yun turned his head to look at Han Yue, who was stunned with his hands on his cheeks, and sighed silently.

He didn't know.

"Luckily, we're lucky." Han Yue seemed to see Nie Yun's thoughts, and suddenly stretched out her jade hand and gently touched Nie Yun's head, as if comforting: "So let's not think about those things that have a headache and can't think of results." ”

Feeling the slightest temperature coming from the top of his head, Nie Yun raised his head slightly, met his senior sister's sparkling eyes, and didn't slowly speak until Han Yue was a little embarrassed, muttering as if sighing: "My luck is really good." ”

"yes, we've had a lot of luck." Even Xiao Xue, who is usually heartless, couldn't help but sigh at this time, this is the first time they have realized this corner of this cruel world living in the ivory tower.

"Okay, why do you want to do so much, it's a lot luckier than us." Han Yue patted Xiao Xue's fragrant shoulder and smiled softly: "What are you doing with so much sentimentality." ”

Xiao Xue crooked her snow-white neck and thought about it, and suddenly laughed: "It's the same." ”

Nie Yun also smiled, the whip in his hand was gently raised, and he floated into the distance with a little bit of laughter.

Such is the joy and sorrow of young men.

......

Due to the sudden attack on the road, this also caused Nie Yun and the others to arrive at Yuelu Mountain in the middle of the night, but even so, with the talisman of the University Hall, they still entered the University Hall smoothly.

The bright moon hanging high sprinkled with a cold glow, draping the entire university hall with a silvery white veil.

The three of them walked briskly towards their small courtyard on the silver-white path, but they didn't take two steps before they saw a tall figure in a black robe standing in the middle of the path and quietly blocking their way.

"Vice Dean, what are you again?" Nie Yun was slightly stunned, always feeling that this scene was a little familiar.

"Hehe, you were attacked and killed on the way back from completing the mission, of course I, who is the vice president, want to come and take a look." The vice dean slowly turned around and took a closer look at the three of them.

"Vice Dean, you're quite well-informed." Nie Yun spread his hands helplessly: "We just encountered the attack in the morning, and you came to the door this night." ”

Smack!

The vice president knocked Nie Yun's head hard: "You found the local government office and reported your identity as a student of the University Hall, such a big matter, the government office naturally wants to talk to the University Hall." ”

"Okay, okay, let's not have any now, you should go back to sleep quickly." Xiao Xue stretched out her slender white hand and yawned: "Ah boil~ If you don't sleep, we still have to sleep." ”

"You guys." The vice dean shook his head helplessly: "Of course, there is still something to ask you." ”

"Uh... Let's talk about it quickly. "Han Yue is also very sleepy now, she somehow fell asleep outside the car last night, and naturally she didn't sleep peacefully outside the car, and there was another attack in the morning, and then she was on the road for half a day, Han Yue felt that she was in her current state, and she was afraid that she would be able to fall asleep with a pillow.

When the vice president saw the appearance of a few people, he stopped inking, and said straight to the point: "There is also one question, do anyone else know about your mission to the extreme north." ”

"It stands to reason that I didn't tell anyone." Nie Yun pondered for a moment and said, "What do you mean, vice president?" ”

"One Eight Vein Realm plus ten Rebirth Realm martial cultivators are not something that can be prepared in a moment and a half." The vice dean's tone was cold, with a faint chill: "I'm afraid I started preparing from the time you set off." ”

If someone touched the inside of the university hall, he would never tolerate it!

"Although we shouldn't have told anyone, Xiaoxue and I bought a lot of cold-resistant things from Wuzhentang." Han Yue forcibly pulled herself up and said, "If anyone is careful, they should be able to guess that we are going to the Far North." ”

"Then I see." The vice president sighed leisurely.

That's a lot of range.
