In a dense forest near the mountain pass.

Su Mo stepped on a branch.

Trivial voids cut through the blades.

Indifferently stared at the scene not far below.

Being able to find this place in time is quite admirable to Su Mo.

I thought that Zhang Rulong would be hit hard by the bewildering fox, leaving an indelible wound.

Or maybe Zhang Rulong has some kind of hole card, and he hit the Confused Fox and can't kill it, and then let it escape.

But all regrets are nothing more than these two things.

But what he never expected was that a third party would break into this battlefield.

looked at the uninhibited green-robed Taoist not far away, especially the slightly familiar young face.

Su Mo recognized it at the first time, this was the amazing and brilliant mage in history, Zhang Qinghu!

He never expected that he would be here, seeing each other in this way.

This kind of encounter that spans thousands of years always gives Su Mo a sense of vicissitudes.

But soon, the feeling quickly faded again.

Because he found that the current Zhang Qinghu is still too young.

He looked like he was only in his early thirties, and he was a good age to be in high spirits to do something big.

And his strength has not reached its peak, not even the mage realm, and now it is only the 8th order.

However, even if it is the 8th order, it can suppress the demon slayer and guards sent by the county guard.

Not to mention that there is only a 6th order in front of him, but in fact, his combat power is far inferior to that of the 6th order.

With an attitude of watching the play, Su Mo was ready to watch the subsequent development of events.

And at this moment, there was an immediate change on the field.

The bewildering fox was slightly stunned for a moment after the arrow was struck by lightning.

Immediately after, he did not hesitate to pick up a few pieces of iron crushed on the carriage and shoot them towards Zhang Rulong like rain.

At the same time, the whole person quickly turned into a gray fox with shiny hair, and suddenly rushed towards the dense forest on the side.

This operation can be described as smooth and slippery to the extreme, as if it has been rehearsed thousands of times.

So much so that before Zhang Rulong could react, the broken iron pieces carrying the cold wind had already shot closer, as if to penetrate him into a sieve.

"It's worthy of being a cunning bewildering fox, it seems that all the strength of his body is on his brain."

With a light sigh, more than a dozen stones suddenly shot out from Zhang Rulong's back, hitting the iron pieces one by one.

Three of them even made a special turn and circled around him, shattering the oncoming pieces of iron.

This scene almost made Zhang Rulong's brain unable to turn.

But soon, he understood—

"Cultivator!"

"It's a cultivator!!"

Before he could recover from the shock, a scream suddenly came from the forest.

Immediately afterwards, the green-robed Taoist walked out of it carrying the dead fox.

"The 6-grade Confusing Heart Fox, plus some other precious materials, can barely be made into a high-grade magic weapon.

Hey, when you think about it, there's no difference between us humans and monsters.

Monsters eat people, humans eliminate demons, whoever is strong is righteous."

Listening to this story, Zhang Rulong was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly thanked him:

"Thank you for getting rid of this monster and seeking justice for many people who died tragically!"

Zhang Qinghu carried the demon fox and didn't care:

"There's no need to say thank you, I just want to use it as a refining material."

As he spoke, he walked straight in the direction of the county seat.

Zhang Qinghu thought about it and hurriedly caught up.

After that, the two chatted while walking, most of them were Zhang Rulong who said, and Zhang Qinghu listened.

During this period, Zhang Rulong proposed apprenticeship for the first time, but Zhang Qinghu refused without hesitation.

The reason is that he is alone, the world is his home, and he hates cumbersomeness.

Zhang Rulong didn't have much

disappointed, but not discouraged, apparently planning to continue to look for opportunities to apprentice.

And when the two were about to walk to the county seat, they were shocked by the scene that happened in front of them.

Because there are a large number of monsters attacking the city frantically.

As far as the eye can see, the audience is full of black pressed figures.

The number of monsters is beyond imagination.

Except for a very small number of monsters that have given birth to spiritual intelligence.

Most of them are mutant giant ants with little intelligence.

Many monsters are clustered to attack the city, if it were in normal times, the small Dajue County would have been bulldozed a long time ago.

Fortunately, the county guard's soldiers and demon slayers happened to come to the city.

At this moment, the two sides are engaged in a fierce battle near the city wall.

Although the demon slayers were barely able to hold on.

But there are too many monsters.

Over time, there will inevitably be holes in the line of defense.

And once the monsters invade the city, the people in the city are almost powerless in the face of these murderous monsters.

Zhang Rulong seemed to be able to see the terrifying scene of the city being destroyed and corpses all over the field.

In the next second, Zhang Qinghu beside him swept out.

Seeing this, Zhang Rulong gritted his teeth, pulled out the already small number of arrows, and shot the giant ants nearby.

Although there were many monsters, with Zhang Rulong, an 8th-order master, entering the arena, they were quickly suppressed.

Some scattered monsters also fled into the distance.

Su Mo stood nearby and watched.

I cooked a few unlucky eggs passing by.

Immediately afterwards, from the conversation between Zhang Rulong and Ji Chang, the commander of the city, Su Mo understood the cause and effect of this demon rebellion.

It seems to have something to do with the bewildered fox that has turned into a corpse.

In order to avoid being chased and killed by the demon slayer, the other party specially released the demon slayer in the city, attracting many demons and distracting the energy of the demon slayer and others.

It can be said that this guy is really leaky in his work, even if his strength is not strong, but the harm is great.

If it hadn't bumped into Zhang Qinghu by chance, it would have been very likely to let it escape.

Witnessing this scene in front of him, Su Mo deeply felt the difficulties of the end of the law era.

It's not just because it's difficult for humans to cultivate, but also because various disasters such as monsters are far more frequent and terrifying than in later generations.

It is really incredible that human beings can successfully survive the addition and subtraction of the two.

Su Mo was thinking about it, when he saw Zhang Rulong apprentice to Zhang Qinghu again.

Perhaps it was Zhang Rulong's performance of killing demons just now that moved him, but Zhang Qinghu didn't refuse again.

Instead, he took out two paper balls from his body and said to Zhang Rulong:

"Of the two paper balls in my hand, one of them has a record of Qi practice.

The other paper ball didn't write anything, but if he caught it, he could become my registered disciple and accept my teachings."

"Now, it's up to you to choose."

Zhang Rulong looked at the two paper balls in his hand and hesitated for a while.

Finally, he gritted his teeth violently and grabbed the paper ball on Zhang Qinghu's left hand.

However, before he could catch it, a gust of wind suddenly blew through, directly blowing the paper ball to the ground.

See this scene.

Zhang Rulong and Zhang Qinghu all looked at each other.

Zhang Rulong was surprised that the timing of this gust of wind was too ingenious.

Zhang Qinghu was surprised - how could the breeze blow away the paper ball from his hand?

But what happened in front of him didn't allow him not to believe it.

He looked around suspiciously, but saw nothing.

At this time, Zhang Rulong had already made up his mind and grabbed the paper ball on the right sharply.

After grabbing it, he couldn't wait to unfold it.

There is a piece of Qi practice method recorded in it.

Zhang Rulong's face was full of astonishment and loss.

Look at the edge of the illusion that suddenly shattered not far away.

Su Mo suddenly came to his senses.

It turned out that Zhang Rulong regretted that his choice was wrong.

He probably thought that if he had chosen another paper group at that time, he would definitely be able to become Zhang Qinghu's registered disciple.

But what he didn't know was that Zhang Qinghu's two pieces of paper recorded the same Qi Cultivation Method.

He had no intention of taking in apprentices.

Twenty-seven years of Shenglong.

Somewhere in an inn on the official road.

It's very lively inside.

Several shabby square tables were filled with guests.

"Boss, blanch two pots of hot wine, cut five catties of beef, and serve a few side dishes."

As the words fell, six people walked in the dusty outside.

Except for the handsome appearance of a young man in the lead.

The five people behind him were all strong men and burly figures, but they were faintly divided into two factions, and they were quite hostile to each other.

Zhang Rulong put down the long knife in his hand, looked at the few people facing behind him, and greeted with a smile:

"Don't stand, sit down and get something to eat, we'll have to hurry later."

Hearing this, the crowd sat down in silence.

There were a large number of people, but the scene was extremely deserted.

Zhang Rulong seemed to be a little uncomfortable, and persuaded a few people:

"As a bystander, it's a bit inappropriate from my point of view.

But you're also too obsessed.

Isn't it just a horse?

As for shouting and shouting and killing?

There's no need to fight over such a trivial matter as grabbing a horse.

In fact, the horse ......."

Zhang Rulong sat at the table and persuaded.

In his opinion, although these five friends he met on the road were not cultivators, they could also be called strong men, and their strength was much stronger than ordinary people, and even not weaker than low-level cultivators.

Unexpectedly, he collapsed because of a fight for a horse, and the swords and soldiers faced each other on the spot, which made Zhang Rulong feel extremely puzzled.

In the end, he relied on the strength of the 4th order to persuade everyone, provided his own horses, and brought them here, ready to resolve the conflict while eating.

But Zhang Rulong would never have imagined that the contradiction between them had nothing to do with such a thing as a horse.

The five people on the field were Yu Hongfei and He Shenggong, who belonged to the Civil Security Bureau, and He Shenggong, who belonged to the Cult Society.

In the previous secret realm, Yu Hongfei crossed over to become the leader of the Money Gang, Kui Tianci, fished out a member of the Evil Cult and killed him on the spot.

I thought that I could fish out more members, and even directly wiped out the Cult Society.

Who would have thought that the other party had gathered together a long time ago, and the three of them joined forces to directly kill Zhou Yang, who had just been promoted on his side.

Later, he sent his gang to hunt down the three people, but the three people found an opportunity to break Zhang Rulong's regrets, causing the illusion to collapse.

Then they fell into this second illusion.

This time, Yu Hongfei did not have the bonus of identity, but with the previously agreed joint code, he quickly found Wei Cang.

followed by the key figure, Zhang Rulong.

Now that Zhang Rulong has become a fourth-order cultivator, he has already left Dajue County, and while practicing outside, he exterminates demons on the road.

They approached in time to befriend each other.

After that, I joined a convoy, gathered and hurried, and made a lot of friends.

Until that day, Yu Hongfei and Wei Cang were brushing the horse, and accidentally said that they wanted to buy a soft brush on Taobao.

The three people on the opposite side suddenly changed color, and they sensed each other's identities, and they fought on the spot.

However, here they couldn't exert the strength of the outside world at all, and in the end, everyone was easily suppressed by Zhang Rulong with a 4th order.

Yu Hongfei, He Shenggong and the others looked at each other, their eyes were angry, but they couldn't fight.

And more importantly, they all know that in order to break the illusion, they must be tied to Zhang Rulong.

Both sides suppressed their hatred and tacitly did not move

Hand.

At this time, Xiao Er also brought up all the scalded wine and food.

"Guests, your food and drink, please use it slowly."

Looking at the pot of wine, Yu Hongfei suddenly asked:

"Xiaowei, do you know why the ancients burned the wine before drinking it?"

Wei Cang did not hesitate, and replied directly:

"In ancient times, most people drank rice wine, and after the rice wine was scalded, the taste was more mellow and sweet, and it was not easy to get drunk. Chinese Net

In addition, it is easy to warm up the body by drinking hot wine in winter, which is convenient to resist wind and cold.

But the most important thing is the third point, the ancient wine-making technology is not perfect, the detection technology is not very good, the wine often contains many impurities, especially methanol, acetaldehyde and other ingredients that are harmful to the body, perennial drinking can even hurt life, before drinking can make these harmful substances quickly volatilize away, reduce the harm to the body.

The ancients may not have understood these great truths, but they only need to watch the people who drink hot wine live a little longer, and they will naturally learn it."

"That's right."

Yu Hongfei lifted the lid of a pot of wine, and then asked:

"Then the question is, it's obviously a scalded wine, and it should be that all harmful substances have volatilized, why is there *** in this wine?"

Xiao Er, who was standing at the table, suddenly stiffened.

Wei Cang raised his hand and slashed at it.

Xiao Er suddenly changed color and staggered back.

A little silver light came from the distance.

Zhang Rulong raised his hand and threw out the wine glass.

There was a bang, and the glass hit the dart, shattering into countless pieces.

And Wei Cang suddenly cut off the head of the shopkeeper with a knife.

His headless corpse twitched, and immediately turned into a sturdy black-haired pig demon.

"I knew I would have drunk him."

Zhang Rulong's face was pity.

"This guy must have eaten people, and you can eat it?"

Yu Hongfei's face was full of disgust.

He Shenggong on the opposite side was dismissive:

"There are still many people who like to eat the nine-turn large intestine."

At this time, the old shopkeeper behind the counter said in a dull voice:

"It's rare to encounter so much meat, don't let any of them escape today!"

As the words fell, the diners at several nearby tables turned into their bodies.

or pig demons, or cow demons, or fish demons, all of them are not human, and they are all awe-inspiring.

Seeing them gathering around with great tacit understanding, Zhang Rulong's eyes were cold:

"Looking at your skillful cooperation, you must have eaten a lot of people, right? It's rare that I've come here today to seek justice for the countless souls who have died here!"

Killings abounded.

Half an hour later, the gray wolf head of the old shopkeeper was cut off, but Zhang Rulong's face was not very happy.

"What's the problem?"

Wei Cang panted, glanced around, and asked a little strangely:

"Haven't all the monsters been killed?"

Zhang Rulong picked up a person's waist card.

Looking at the waist card, he sighed and said:

"This is the ginseng card of Santu Town."

"The ginseng pickers are considered to be the strongest forces in Santu Town."

"Even if they are all broken, Santu Town must be gone."

"We're still a step too late."
