In the dark night, a small figure came out of the yard, carrying a dead body on his shoulder.

In his mind, he also remembered a sentence: Send my body to Xu Dingtian's hands, and you will definitely have a reward.

The man's eyes turned red inexplicably: "Although I am just a little slave of the Xu family, I still know the truth of being a teacher for one day and a father for life, don't worry, I will bury you well!"

Unconsciously, the figure had quietly left from behind, and after walking the huge Xu family, not far away, there was a silent mountain range.

"This mountain range is thousands of miles long, but it is sparsely populated, and you can rest here without anyone disturbing you. ”

This person is Xu Yan, and at this moment, his thin body, as if hiding infinite strength, is carrying the old man's body on his back little by little.

He never imagined that there would be such a person who would die for him.

Perhaps, in his heart, there has never been such a person.

It is precisely because there is no that I feel cherished.

Rustling.

The mountains at night were very silent, the faint cold wind was blowing, and the sound of beast roars in the distance seemed to be quiet for this young man.

Under the big tree, Xu Yan stopped.

He had no tools, so he could only put down the old man and dig with his hands, the cold ground, there were sharp stones, and his hands cut dozens of wounds in a short time.

A heart-piercing pain came from between the palms of his hands, and he still didn't realize it.

"When I become a big man one day, I will definitely bury you beautifully, you are in the spirit of heaven, you must bless me and avenge you. ”

A pit that just accommodated one person was finally dug, Xu Yan took a deep breath and put the old man into it.

A big stone was moved from the side, and a few small words were written on it: The tomb of the teacher Liu Tianyu!

Liu Tianyu is the name of the old man.

The tombstone was installed, it was almost dark, Xu Yan took a deep breath and stared at the sky.

Halfway through, he carefully took out a thumb-sized pill.

"This Qi and Blood Great Dan can increase my lifespan by sixty years, and with him, I will definitely be able to improve a lot faster by cultivating the Nine Turns Technique. ”

Gritting his teeth, he swallowed the pill, took a deep breath, and leaned his back against the tree.

His heart was hot, and he finally started to cultivate, but he didn't panic, he was waiting!

Slowly, he felt the qi and blood surging in his body, and his internal organs seemed to have a great river of blood rolling in his body.

It's the Qi and Blood Great Pill that has had a medicinal attack.

He knew that the Great Dan of Qi and Blood was a treasure, even in the Great Qianguo.

It is said that taking one pill can not only increase cultivation, but also cure all kinds of diseases.

At this moment, he deeply realized that the feeling was like taking a big tonic for a while, and the bones all over his body were full of itching, and the dry cells in his body slowly grew.

Gradually, a hint of blush gradually appeared on his pale face.

Suddenly, I saw a starry light shining in the sky.

Xu Yan immediately crossed his knees, held the Nine Turns in his hand, glanced at it, and closed his eyes.

Slowly, in his senses, a hole on his shoulder was faintly opening.

"The first acupuncture point of the Nine Turns will open some gaps at dawn, and at this time, you can get twice the result with half the effort by running the Qi and Blood Impact. ”

This is what Liu Tianyu explained.

This is also the reason why Li Baolong obtained the Nine Turns Technique, but his cultivation was unsuccessful.

"The first turn requires the opening of nine hundred and ninety-nine acupuncture points, and I am now almost past the most precious age of cultivation, and I have no one to guide me, so I must endure more hardships than others to have a chance to compare with those family disciples. ”

Xu Yan told himself in his heart.

Gradually, a stream of chopsticks and thick blood slowly condensed in the body, and under the guidance of the mind, it converged towards the shoulder.

The next moment, his mind tightened, and he manipulated his qi and blood to rush towards the acupoints.

Bang!

The acupuncture point trembled slightly, but it didn't hit open!

Xu Yan's blood rushed upward, his face was red, but he still stood still.

"I don't have much experience, but I can build it up again and again. ”

The thought condensed his qi and blood again, and he knew that he could only rely on himself at this time.

Moreover, the opening time of the acupuncture point is only half a quarter, and once the time passes, you can only wait for the coming day.

Bang bang bang.

As the number of impacts increased, he had some experience in his heart.

At dawn, there was a slight muffled knock on the shoulder.

"Finally the impact was successful!"

Xu Yan was overjoyed, and stood up with a clicking sound in his body.

He felt that his strength had increased a little at this moment.

For fifteen years, he had dreamed countless times, and finally began to come true.

Although this speed was fast, he knew that this was all the use of the Qi and Blood Great Dan.

"It's dawn, I should go back to Xu's house, although my strength has increased, I am still very low, I need to be careful. ”

Xu Yan looked at the direction of the Xu family in the distance, there was already a noisy sound, he came to the cemetery, bowed deeply, and took a deep breath. Then he went towards Xu's house.

――――――――――――――

Qianlong Mansion covers an area of 100 acres, and the courtyards are staggered, if you are not familiar with the situation inside, it is easy to get lost.

"I heard that General Li Baolong knew that the dowry had been robbed, and in a fit of rage, he led his men and horses to the royal capital. A sweeper said secretly.

"I've also heard that if you find a thief, you will be rewarded with a thousand dollars. ”

In the outer mansion, Xu Yan listened to the words of these people, his face expressionless.

They didn't know that Liu Tianyu was dead, and there was a sadness in their hearts, but he couldn't show it.

Gradually, the outer courtyard was cleaned, and he took a broom and went into the inner courtyard.

At this moment, it is already afternoon, but his body does not feel tired, and the great pill of qi and blood is like a great supplement, which makes his whole body have strength.

Holding the broom, he felt light as nothing in his hand, and after his strength was greatly increased, he felt that he only needed to sleep for two hours a day, and he was in good spirits.

"The song of spring and spring, the harmony will be few, and under the fame, it is actually difficult to match. ”

Unconsciously, Xu Yan came to a luxurious courtyard.

This is the inner courtyard, and many descendants live in luxurious courtyards.

Xu Dingtian had four sons, in addition to one who died in battle, there were three, and now they are all important ministers of the imperial court.

And those three sons, there are dozens of sons underneath, and the people are prosperous.

At this moment, there was a burst of poetry in the courtyard, and about four or five teenagers could be heard reading.

"Hey, come here!"

Xu Yan was about to leave, when suddenly a voice came from behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that it was a young man about the same age as him.

"Seventeen Young Master!" Xu Yan lowered his head.

This person is the young master of the Xu family, and Xu Yan has seen this person.

The seventeenth young master's name was Xu Jun, he was wearing a precious mink, his face was handsome, and he was wearing many jade ornaments on his body.

Xu Yan's gaze quietly fell on the mink coat.

The mink coat is pure white, very good-looking, very famous, it is said to be extremely cold-resistant, even in the cold winter, it does not feel cold, it is worth ten thousand gold, and it is the favorite of many young masters of the family.

Mink fur is produced in the south, and someone specially peels it off, and after processing, as long as there is a little damage in the middle, it is worthless, Xu Yan has seen a lot, but he has not worn it.

"What's your name?" Xu Jun's eyes rolled.

Xu Yan thought to himself, what did he do when he suddenly stopped me, but he still said respectfully: "My name is Xu Yan, and I have been a slave in the Xu family since I was a child, and I have been a slave for fifteen years. ”

"Xu Yan, it's good, take it, I'll reward you. Xu Jun threw something in his hand and came over.

Xu Yan hurriedly caught it.

When I opened my hand, I saw a shiny silver ingot.

This silver ingot, with exquisite flame patterns cast on it, and the words "five taels" on the feet, is obviously the official silver of the Daqian Dynasty.

Five taels is equivalent to Xu Yan's income for a year, which is a good reward.

"Thank you, young master, for the reward!"

Xu Yan hurriedly said, I don't know why, if it was before, he would definitely be very happy, but now it is much lighter.

Xu Jun was very satisfied, pulled Xu Yan over, and said a few words in his ear: "Go, I'll wait for you at the outer gate of Xu's mansion." ”

"Yes, young master!"

Xu Yan nodded, dropped the broom and went to the inner mansion.

He didn't expect that Xu Jun actually asked him to get crickets and run errands, which also made him breathe a sigh of relief.
