As the saying goes, the water is clear and there are no fish. Qi Ji searched in the water for a long time, but he didn't even find a fish bubble, so he had to return empty-handed. If you can't find something to eat, you'll starve to death sooner or later. So he looked around, hoping to find some weeds and roots.

Suddenly, he saw a large tree abruptly on the mountain wall not far away, which was not too high above the ground, and the trunk of the tree was crooked from a distance. Qi Ji couldn't help but sigh, the vitality of this tree is so tenacious, this valley has not seen the light of day all year round, cold and damp, and the stone walls are covered with moss, but this big tree can survive here, which can't help but arouse his desire to survive even more.

There are many brightly colored mushrooms next to the roots of the large tree. Qi Ji thought to himself: It would be good to eat some mushrooms, so he jumped up and picked them, and within a few jumps, he picked a lot. Just as he was about to return, he heard a strange sound under his feet, as if he had stepped on something. So Qi Ji turned over the dead branches and rotten leaves under his feet, and a broken bone appeared, and then turned down, more and more bones were exposed. Qi Ji was taken aback, didn't dare to turn it over again, and returned with the mushroom.

Zhang Ning couldn't stop giggling when he saw Qi Ji coming back, still holding a mushroom in his hand. Qi Xi was very puzzled, and only heard Zhang Ning say: "Brother Qi Ji, do you want to poison me." Qi Ji was puzzled: "What." Zhang Ning stopped laughing and said, "Brother, this mushroom is poisonous, one is enough to kill people." Hearing her say this, Qi Ji quickly threw away the mushroom and told her about the bones he had just found.

Zhang Ning asked, "What kind of bone is that, you can take a few pieces for me to see." Qi Ji went over again, picked up a few pieces casually, and brought them back to Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning took a closer look and said: "This is a human bone, this is part of the shoulder blade, this is a rib, although it is incomplete, but it will not be wrong." Qi Ji said casually: "Maybe someone has also fallen from it." Zhang Ning looked at it again, shook his head and said, "No, brother, you see, this bone is very neatly broken, and it is clearly caused by the sword, and it cannot be broken." Qi Ji shook his head and retorted, "Xu fell down after this person was injured." Zhang Ning smiled: "It's also possible, but brother, you go there again to see if there are any bones." ”

Qi Ji then went back there and rummaged, this time it didn't matter, only to see that many bones leaked out, there were skulls, limb bones, torso bones, it was very clear, it was clearly human bones, and next to these bones, there were several rusty swords scattered. picked up two swords and brought them back to Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning looked at Jian Dao: "Brother, there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Qi Ji was puzzled and said casually: "Whatever." Zhang Ning smiled: "The good news is that there must be an exit here." For these are all slain in this place, and the one who killed them can come and go as they please. The bad news is that this murderer has extremely high martial arts, and it can be said that it is easy for him to kill us. Let's break into someone's forbidden land, it seems that we are nine deaths. ”

Qi Qihu asked, "Why is my sister so sure that these people were killed here?" Zhang Ning smiled: "It's very simple, these bones are all cut off by swords, and they are all gathered together, and most of their swords are still there, you think, if these people are killed and thrown to the bottom, then how can these people all get together, and their swords are not left their bodies?" Qi Qi nodded in a sudden realization, and asked again: "Then why did you see that they were killed by masters, maybe they killed each other after they fell." Zhang Ning blinked and smiled: "First, if it is cannibalism, then they must have the last to die, and the last to die will definitely not lie with the first to die; Second, you see some broken bones, and the edges of the knives are the same and flat, and it is clear that they were done by the same person, and after killing them, they are thrown in one place; Third, you can see that these sword hilts are engraved with names, and these people are all famous heroes in the rivers and lakes. In recent years, many sword masters have disappeared intermittently, and today, I realized that they all died here. Qi Ji nodded and praised Zhang Ning for making sense. Now there is hope for life, but they are afraid of the appearance of a master, at this moment, the two of them can be said to have mixed feelings in their hearts.

Qi Ji said: "The most important thing at the moment is to find something to eat, otherwise you will really starve to death." Zhang Ning saw that Qi Qi was anxious, so he joked: "It seems that you can only learn from the Buddha to cut meat and feed the eagle." Seeing her bad look, Qi Qi grabbed her arm and said, "Let you make fun of me." I want to feed you, not the eagle," Zhang Ningge couldn't stop laughing.

The two frolicked for a while, and Qi Ji began to worry again: "There is really nothing to eat here, how can this be good." Zhang Ning stopped laughing and said, "Brother, do you know that tree bark is also edible, you go and cut some branches with a sword, peel the skin and cook it to eat." Qi Ji praised: "Sister, you are so smart." Then he took his sword and went to cut down the branches.

A lot of branches were cut and a lot of skin was set out, but unfortunately there were no utensils and no fire. Although there are many combustible things, how do you start a fire? Zhang Ning told him to go find a big stone and put some hay on it, and then cut it with two swords, and with the sparks that came out, he could set the hay on fire. Qi Ji followed what Zhang Ning said, and sure enough, a fire quickly broke out.

Qi Ji boiled some of the bark on a hollow stone, and the two of them used the branch as chopsticks, sandwiched the cooked bark, and began to enjoy it. To be honest, this boiled bark is the first time they have eaten it, and they have only heard of it before, but now they really eat it themselves, and it is really hard to swallow. Look at me, I'll look at you, the two of them are hard-headed, you bite me a bite, and you eat all the bark. Zhang Ning said: "Brother Qiji, fortunately with you, otherwise I would definitely not be able to live." Qi Ji shook his head and said, "Sister, without you, I would have starved to death." The two looked at each other and smiled, although their bodies were bitter, their hearts were sweet, even if the two of them died immediately at this moment, it was estimated that they would be willing.

The two chatted for a while, and it was already dark, but fortunately there was endless firewood at the bottom of the valley. Qi Ji added a lot, and boiled some water to drink. The two of them lay on the dead branches and leaves, but they didn't feel cold. Xu was tired of running around for several days, frightened and frightened, desperate and hopeful, and both of them were under great mental and physical pressure, and soon they both fell asleep grogily.

When he woke up, it was already dawn, and Qi Ji found that Zhang Ning was sleeping in his arms, like a baby, breathing calmly, and there was still a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was dreaming a magnificent dream. Qi Xi's arm was pressed for a long time, and he felt numb, so he moved slightly, not wanting to wake up Zhang Ning instead.

After Zhang Ning woke up, he found that he was sleeping in Qi Ji's arms, pretending not to know, and hugged him tightly. Knowing that she had woken up, Qi Qi found a hair on her head, pulled it off, and tickled it in her nostrils. Zhang Ning suddenly felt itchy in his nostrils and couldn't help sneezing. At this time, Zhang Ning let go, rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched out his arms lazily, and complained softly: "Brother Qiji, you are so bad!" ”

When they woke up, the fire had long since been extinguished. Qi Ji said to boil some more bark. Zhang Ning shook his head and said that he would not eat again. Qi Ji had no choice but to look for other food. However, after turning around, I didn't find anything to eat, maybe the valley was too deep and wet, and there were not even a single mouse.

Suddenly, Zhang Ning remembered the burden she had been carrying. Yesterday, in order to treat her leg injury, she didn't know where to throw it after the burden was untied, and now she pinned all her hopes on that burden. Because people in the rivers and lakes walk the rivers and lakes, they usually store some food in their luggage, so she can't wait to find that baggage. The result did not disappoint her, and as soon as she opened the outer layer of the baggage, she found a large cake wrapped in oiled paper, which was dry but looked still edible.

Zhang Ning was overjoyed, and continued to open the inner layer, only to see that the inner layer was an extremely delicate wooden box, and there was a short sword in the box, and a broken book was pressed under the sword. Zhang Ning took out the short sword, only to see that the hilt of the sword was a golden dragon carving, extremely majestic, the sword body was cast with dark iron, revealing a faint cold light, and the blade was extremely sharp. She took out the broken book, only to see that the Shadowless Excalibur was written on it. So she exclaimed: "Brother Qi Ji, come on, this is the sword spectrum of the Shadowless Sword, as long as you practice according to this sword spectrum, we don't have to be afraid of the mysterious master anymore." ”

Qi Ji ran over because of what happened, and when he saw that it was a broken book, he also raised his interest, shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm too stupid, or sister, you can practice." Zhang Ning smiled bitterly: "I have sect rules, how can I practice other people's martial arts, and besides, my legs can't move, how can I practice?" This swordsmanship is the supreme swordsmanship of martial arts people, if you don't practice, it will be a pity. "Qi Ji thinks about it, his revenge has not been avenged, and he needs to practice martial arts diligently, if he does not have good martial arts, how can he get revenge.

After Qi Ji thought it through, he decided to work hard to practice his sword. At first, this set of shadowless swordsmanship was not difficult to get started, but the more he practiced, the more he was powerless, but under the guidance and encouragement of Zhang Ning, he refused to give up.

In fact, this set of sword spectrum, it seems to practice hands, but in fact, it is to practice the heart, if you can understand the beauty of the sword spectrum, it is easier to practice again. This sword spectrum is divided into six realms, and each upper layer is difficult, and you need to be familiar with the sword technique, comprehend the sword intent, and practice hard. According to the sword spectrum, the sixth layer of the essence is "Criticizing the Lin Please Sword", the fifth layer is the "Micro Time Sword" and the fourth layer of the meaning "for the sword and the performance", all of which are quite easy to practice, because it is an entry-level swordsmanship, and there are sword moves, sword momentum, and detailed explanations. The third layer of "Sword Qi Xiao Xin" only has sword intent, and there are no specific sword moves, which require cultivators to comprehend and create their own moves, so it is very difficult. It is recorded in the book that there are very few people who can reach the second level of "swinging the sword into a river", and the cultivation of this level requires not only the cultivator to have strong internal strength, but also a higher level of understanding, innovation and strong perseverance. The last first layer of "No Sword in the Heart" book records that no one has been able to practice so far, and as for why, the book does not talk about it.

Qi Ji meditated day and night, and asked Zhang Ning for advice if he didn't understand, sometimes Zhang Ning could give him a little inspiration with his own understanding, but there were some profound points, which often required him to slowly comprehend thousands of times of scrutiny, comprehension and tens of thousands of attempts to swing the sword. In this way, I don't know how many days have passed, Qi Ji has relied on his super high understanding, thousands of hard practices, and Zhang Ning's encouragement, and finally reluctantly practiced to the third level of "Sword Qi Xiao Xin". But I still want to enter the second layer of "swinging the sword into a river", it is indeed like "the difficulty of Shu Road, it is difficult to go to the blue sky", because practicing the second layer requires a higher understanding, profound internal strength and strong perseverance, Qi Ji has not succeeded several times, some impatience, how much I want to give up, he sometimes thinks that this layer, people are simply unattainable, it is the author of this book deliberately difficult, scribbled.

But Zhang Ning doesn't think so, because she knows that the more difficult the martial arts to practice, the more exquisite, the more superb, and the more powerful. So she kept motivating Qi Ji, so that he continued to practice hard and couldn't give up. These days, Zhang Ning saw that he was very hard and hard to practice swords, so he secretly passed on the "Poison Sutra" of his own internal strength to him, so that his internal strength continued to accumulate and improve. But after practicing the sword day after day, the reality is that there is no sufficient and nutritious food to replenish physical strength, so the more Qi Ji's sword is practiced, the slower it becomes, and the more he practices, the less he grows.

In the evening of this day, it began to rain in the mountains, and began to drizzle like silk, forming a layer of mist and mist, like an ethereal white veil, and gradually turned into countless raindrops, like crystal clear pearls, some fell in the water, stirring up splashes, and then they became large pieces of raindrops falling from the sky, like a scoop. Rainwater flows down the stone wall, merges into a stream, and then flows into the pool.

The two hid under the cliff to avoid the rain, cold and hungry, and sighed when the rain would stop. The combustible firewood in the valley was already soaked, and there was no way to make a fire to keep warm, and seeing the sky getting darker, I really didn't know how to spend this difficult rainy night. In the past few days, although Zhang Ning's leg injury has gradually healed, but the clothes on his body when he fell into the valley were torn, and he was unable to sew and repair. Seeing this, Qi Ji did not hesitate to take off his shabby monk's robe and put it on her. Zhang Ning strongly refused, but he insisted, and said that he could practice swords to keep warm.

Qi Ji practiced swordsmanship, although the exercise made him not feel cold for the time being, but once he stopped, no matter how strong a man was, he couldn't resist the cold in the mountain. The rain finally lightened, and the night was late, but the rain was still dripping and never stopped. The two sat on the ground, leaning on each other to keep warm, chatted a few words, and then fell asleep unconsciously.

In his sleep, Qi Ji felt like he was exposed to the scorching sun, and beads of sweat fell to the ground, but after a while, he felt like he was in an ice cave, which made him tremble. Zhang Ning woke up and saw Qi Qi whispering in a dream, knowing that he had a fever. He wore too little and took off his clothes to himself, thinking of this, Zhang Ning was distressed and sad, and a few tears couldn't help but fall.

Zhang Ning hugged Qi Ji in his sleep all of a sudden. She was going to warm him with her body, hoping that his pale face would flush after dawn, that his skin would no longer be as cold as frost.

In this way, the two spent another night. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next analysis!
