The gathering and dispersion of people in the rivers and lakes are all Pingshui encounters, gathering in a hurry, and scattering in a hurry.

Li Xiao was really drunk this time, but the vulture didn't drink much, so when Li Xiao woke up, the vulture had been gone for a long time. Left a sword behind when he left.

Shi Yu had already woken up and sat beside Li Xiao without saying a word.

Li Xiao didn't ask where the vulture was, threw the sword left by the vulture to Shi Yu, and said, "This is also yours." ”

The two swords given by the vulture were not in bad condition, they were swords, but they were not famous swords.

A snow-white scabbard, the sword body is as smooth as a mirror, and the hilt is engraved with the ancient seal of the three characters of 'Han Chengjun'. Another cyan scabbard is inlaid with seven bean pearls, and the hilt is bound with cyan spikes.

Shi Yu silently named the two swords, and the white sword whose real name was Han Chengjun was called 'Frostfall'. The cyan sword is called 'Sting'.

The vulture was still very kind this time, and when he left, he settled the bills for drinking and staying in the hotel.

Li Xiao also left the inn with Shi Yu.

When leaving the inn, Li Xiao told Shi Yu that when he returned to the Broken Soul Cliff this time, he had to walk back slowly, and Shi Yu had to solve the troubles he encountered along the way, and he would only make a move if he couldn't handle it. Only when he is safe to the Broken Soul Cliff will he teach Shi Yu to practice swords.

Shi Yu just agreed to come down and didn't ask why. First, he felt that Li Xiao had his reasons for doing this, and secondly, he also wanted to experience it.

The Broken Soul Cliff is in the hinterland of the Great Xia Kingdom, thousands of miles away from Yunmeng City, and it takes ten years to walk on foot. So the two were not in a hurry.

Out of the cloud dream city to the north, to climb over a big mountain, this mountain is the south of the Jin Pan country of the Great Xia vassal country, the mountain name Kunwu, is the most magnificent mountain of the Jin Pan country. There is a small town after Kunwu Mountain, which can be used for rest.

There are only rugged paths on the mountain, it is difficult to walk, and there are all kinds of bizarre stories of gods and ghosts, ordinary people go around by themselves, but Li Xiao and Shi Yu choose to climb the mountain.

When Li Xiao left Yunmeng City, he bought a pot of wine and put it in a wine bag. He held a sword in one hand and a wine bag in the other, and drank as he walked, enjoying himself and being very chic.

Shi Yu followed Li Xiao closely, and the two swords were obliquely behind his shoulders, like a ranger walking the rivers and lakes.

Traveling all the way to the Broken Soul Cliff, he didn't have too many worries.

Shi Yu's swordsmanship is actually not bad, but it is slightly inferior to other geniuses of the same age, and it is still more than enough for ordinary Jianghu people, but it is still not enough in the eyes of Li Xiao.

As for arriving at the Broken Soul Cliff, whether Li Xiao killed him with a sword or taught him to practice swords, it was acceptable to him. If a sword kills, he doesn't resent it, and it is certainly better to teach him to practice swords. It's not all about fighting with Li Xiao, he still has something he wants to do right now.

Return to the Nine Swords Gate and retrieve Master's sword. It's simpler than asking the sword Li Xiao.

Along the trail of Kunwu Mountain, from early morning to sunset, before reaching the top of the mountain, the most difficult way up the mountain is finished, followed by the relatively easy way down the mountain.

At this time, dark clouds were overhead, and snowflakes were falling.

Li Xiao looked up at the sky and said, "This snow will come very quickly, and it will be very big. ”

Shi Yu also looked at the sky and did not speak.

Li Xiao took a sip of wine and continued on his way.

Sure enough, as Li Xiao said, the snow is getting heavier and heavier. If you can't walk for more than two miles, it will be difficult to walk, and it will be downhill, so it is easier to slip.

Li Xiao said: "We have to find a place to avoid it. ”

Shi Yu nodded in agreement.

The two of them braved the wind and snow until nightfall.

Shi Yu suddenly stopped, pointed to the darkness, and said, "There are houses there. ”

He was amazed that there was a house on this barren mountain. He was a little skeptical if he had read it wrong.

Li Xiao looked in the direction pointed by Shi Yu, and sure enough, there was a corner of the eaves faintly in his eyes.

Li Xiao laughed out loud and said, "Go!" ”

The snow on the ground was no longer up to my ankles, and one big and one small struggled to move through the snow. Finally arrived at the house a quarter of an hour later.

It turned out to be an abandoned temple.

One temple door had collapsed, and only one door was left alone.

Li Xiao said: "It should be the original mountain temple of this mountain, it is said that the new mountain temple is at the foot of the mountain, not far from the town, and the incense is more prosperous." ”

Shi Yu said: "It's all the same, no matter how strong the incense is, the mountain gods can't always see it." ”

Li Xiao smiled and asked, "How do you know?" ”

Shi Yu said: "There is not really a god in the world. ”

Li Xiao said seriously: "Yes." ”

Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Xiao, and asked, "Is there really a mountain god?" ”

Li Xiao didn't answer, and took the lead in entering the mountain temple. Shi Yu had to follow up.

The two of them each found a place to lie down, Li Xiao took off the wine bag from his waist and drank it, took a sip and threw it to Shi Yu.

With the experience of the last time, this time it was just a small sip of drinking, and it was bitter in the throat. Shi Yu returned it to Li Xiao and said, "It's really unpleasant." ”

Li Xiao smiled: "If you drink too much, it will be delicious." ”

Shi Yu asked the previous question again: "Are there really immortals in the world?" ”

Li Xiao took a sip of wine and said, "There are gods and ghosts, and there are more monsters. ”

Shi Yu asked, "Is it really as terrible as people say?" ”

In the dark night, I couldn't see Li Xiao's expression clearly, and I only heard him say in a flat tone: "Some powerful, very terrifying, especially gods, even if it's a small mountain god." ”

Shi Yu asked again: "You can't beat it either?" ”

Li Xiao said: "If you go all out, you can fight." ”

After a moment of silence, Shi Yu asked, "What about ghosts and demons?" ”

Li Xiao said: "Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of, those bull noses on the mountain have a way, and some big demons are a little difficult to deal with." ”

Shi Yu smiled bitterly: "Wouldn't it be a disaster if you encounter it?" ”

Li Xiao said with a smile: "How can it be so easy to come across, those cultivators are not easy to find." ”

Shi Yu put his mind at ease.

It was late at night, and the snow was still falling.

Shi Yu didn't feel sleepy, and Li Xiao was already half drunk.

Shi Yu was holding the two swords of 'Frostfall' and 'Shock' in his arms, and suddenly thought of a question, so he asked, "Li Xiao, what is the name of your sword?" ”

Li Xiao didn't think about it and said, "There is no name." ”

Shi Yu was surprised: "No name? ”

Li Xiao said: "My sword has no name, but it has been connected with my heart, and it even likes to kill people more than me, and sometimes even I can't control it." ”

Shi Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Even you can't control it?" ”

Li Xiao nodded and said, "It is stained with the blood of too many people. ”

Li Xiao didn't lie, when he pulled out his sword with all his might, he could feel his sword trembling, as if he was shouting excitedly.

Shi Yu suddenly laughed and said, "Your sword is called 'Nameless'." ”

Li Xiao thought about it for a while and said: "It's a good name, then it's better to call it nameless." ”

Shi Yu was stunned, he said casually, he didn't expect Li Xiao to take it seriously?

Li Xiao affirmed again: "What a good name." ”

Shi Yu stopped talking, hugged his sword and fell asleep.

Outside the temple, snow had covered the steps, and the wind and snow were raging.

While Shi Yu and Li Xiao were asleep, a strong wind blew down another door. Shi Yu woke up suddenly, turned his head to look, and saw that the night against the white snow was not so dark.

Li Xiao was still asleep, and the sound of snoring came.

Shi Yu lost his sleepiness, so he got up and walked out of the temple gate, standing under the eaves and watching the snow.

Suddenly, a subtle sound came into Shi Yu's ears, and he turned sideways. A silver needle grazed his cheek and stuck against the wall, buzzing.

"Who?"

Shi Yu drew his sword out of its sheath and stared at a dead tree.

A red dress peeked out from behind the tree, his hair scattered, and his face could not be seen clearly. There was only a burst of eerie laughter.

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Shi Yu's eyes were cold, he stepped on the snow and swooped, and when he approached the red clothes, a sword stabbed out.

The red clothes suddenly disappeared.

Shi Yu frowned, he suddenly remembered what Li Xiao said, and his scalp suddenly went numb, wouldn't he be so back?

"Giggle......

There was a seeping laughter behind him, Shi Yu hurriedly turned around, and saw the female ghost in red sitting on the eaves, facing the distance, humming a strange ballad in her mouth.

"My sister is holding a wooden doll, my brother is carrying a small basket, my father is holding a small axe, my mother lives in a small basket, the doll is full of tears, why is she crying? My brother carried a small basket on his back......"

Shi Yu was terrified.

Li Xiao is still sleeping.

Shi Yujian pointed at the red clothes and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

In fact, he already had the answer in his heart.

The red clothes suddenly turned their heads, screamed sharply, and their long hair suddenly scattered, finally revealing their true face.

Seeing the red-clothed face, Shi Yu gasped.

The flesh-and-blood face was covered with white bones, one cheek was rotten, there were no eyeballs, only a hollow.

The red-clothed female ghost screamed and pounced on Shi Yu, and it was instantaneous.

Shi Yu hurriedly retreated, slashed horizontally with a sword, and cut off the female ghost's head.

The female ghost's body fell to the ground with a bang, and there was no movement for a long time. Just as Shi Yu was about to step forward to check, the headless body suddenly stood up and grabbed Shi Yu.

Shi Yu rolled and dodged, but he was stunned the moment he got up. He ran into the rumored ghost hitting the wall!

Shi Yu looked at the unfamiliar environment around him and couldn't help but be shocked. At this time, he was in an empty street, and there was a gust of gloomy wind, and the doors of the shops on both sides of the street were closed, and long red strips were fluttering in the wind.

There was a chanting in the distance, and Shi Yu followed the sound.

He stopped in front of a house. The gate of the house is ajar, and a red lantern hangs on the door, shining with a ghostly light.

Shi Yu pushed the door in, and immediately felt terrified. I saw a flower garden in the courtyard, and there were no flowers in the flower garden, but two heads!

A middle-aged man with a beard. A teenager with horror on his face.

The red-clothed female ghost squatted in the flower bed and watered the two heads. Its head had returned to its body, just as it had been when Shi Yu first saw it.

It didn't seem to notice Shi Yu's arrival.

There is a room in the courtyard, and the door is ajar so that you can see the scene inside. Just after looking at it, Shi Yu didn't want to take a second look. Because there is also a human head on the table in the middle of the room!

It was a woman's head.

Unlike the other two, this one has an incense burner in front of it with three sticks of incense.

Shi Yu took a deep breath, walked with his sword, and walked towards the female ghost.

Now I don't know where he was taken by the female ghost, whether Li Xiao can find it or not, he can only rely on himself.
