Cheng Tian and Xia Yang left Sichuan City and continued to walk in the direction of Qijia Village in Dalushan.

Chuancheng and Qijia Village are not too far apart, as long as they climb over the Dalu Mountain in front.

After the two passed through Dalu Mountain, they walked on the mountain road and faintly saw a small mountain village in front of them, which was Qijia Village.

"It's finally here." Cheng Tian had a smile on his face.

Returning to his homeland again, Cheng Tian suddenly had a feeling of being tired of returning and returning to his roots. But unfortunately, it is estimated that he will not stay in his homeland for too long this time.

After Mr. Xia Yang took Qi Yan and them to move to Jinxi Kingdom, he would embark on a journey again, going to a certain place to get a certain weapon.

The two of them kept moving forward, heading in the direction of Qijia Village, walking on the somewhat rugged mountain road in the Dalu Mountains.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, the sound of a beast roaring came from ahead, followed by the roar of many people.

"There's a situation ahead!" Cheng Tian said.

Xia Yang nodded slightly and said, "Let's go over and have a look." ”

So both of them spread their bodies and rushed forward like a swift wind, but in an instant, they turned the hill in front of them and saw a scene not far ahead.

I saw that in a rather wide rock and soil clearing, a huge tiger was fighting to the death with more than a dozen people around it.

These people all wore longbows and arrows, and held various blades, and many of them led the hounds, swept the formation in the rear, and when they saw that the momentum was not good, they would shoot arrows at the tigers and help the battle from a distance.

The tiger was also so powerful, in the face of the siege of more than ten people, it was still unabated, constantly letting out an earth-shattering roar, jumping wildly, and a strong wind oppressed and attacked, making everyone retreat.

"I'll come." At this time, standing in the rear sweeping formation, a young man with a tall and healthy body and a heroic appearance saw that everyone could not take this tiger, so he decided to go into battle himself.

"Captain, this guy is amazing, but be careful." A man next to him, who was leading a hound, for remote support, reminded the young man.

The young man nodded, and with a "poof" sound, he pulled out the knife at his waist, held it tightly, and rushed towards the tiger.

"Drink!"

The young man let out an angry shout from his mouth, and with a quick swing of the single knife in his hand, he saw a flash of silver light in front of him, and the blade slashed heavily on the tiger's back.

The strength of this knife is extremely strong, Rao is tiger has rough skin and thick flesh, but it can't withstand the power of the young man's knife, and a bright red blood mouth suddenly appeared on his back, and blood gushed out.

The tiger's back hurt, and he was even more annoyed, and there was another earth-shattering roar in the ground, and the eardrums of the people who pierced him were faintly painful.

Then the tiger suddenly raised its two sharp claws and pounced wildly at the young man in front of him who had slashed him.

The young man swung a single knife, the tiger's claws hit the blade of the knife hard, the young man only felt an irresistible strong attack, the tiger's mouth shook heavily, the single knife could not be held firmly, "clang", fell to the ground.

Seeing that the tiger's claws were about to hit him again, the young man hurriedly dodged sideways, and only then did he get away with it.

The tiger's claws landed on a solid rock on the ground, only to see sparks splash around, and with a "bang", the rock was instantly smashed into a pile of large and small pieces.

When everyone saw it, they all took a deep breath.

However, the young man did not flinch from this, and hurriedly picked up stones from the ground and threw them at the tiger, although it could not hurt the tiger, but it also temporarily slowed down its attack.

Behind the tiger, there were four or five strong men with spears and spears stabbing at the back of the tiger, but the tiger actually felt it, and its thick tail was cocked violently, and then it swept back and forth quickly, resisting the spears and spears stabbed behind him.

The tail was so hard as iron that neither the spear nor the spear could hurt the tiger.

"Why is this beast so difficult to deal with? This is no less powerful than the legendary 'spirit beast'. One of the strong men said bitterly.

"Could this be a tiger spirit beast?" Another strong man suddenly guessed.

"Impossible, spirit beasts are extremely scarce, our Dalu Mountain is just an ordinary deep mountain, and the people who live here are ordinary beasts, how can it be spirit beasts?"

"But if it's not a spirit animal, how can it be so difficult to deal with?"

"Presumably, this beast is born with strong combat effectiveness, you see that even Captain Qi can't cope with it."

……

Captain Qi was naturally referring to that young man.

The young "Captain Qi" saw that he couldn't take this tiger for a while, so he hurriedly jumped back and began to mobilize his true qi, only to see that in the blink of an eye, a thick flame began to appear on the surface of his body, and then the young man raised a fist violently, only to see a raging flame wrapped in the fist and burning violently.

"Look at my 'Flame Fist!' Captain Qi let out a strong angry shout at the tiger, raised his fist wrapped in flames, rushed towards the tiger, and slammed down on the tiger's body with a punch.

"Poof!"

A dull and heavy sound was heard, and Captain Qi's flaming fist slammed into the wound that had originally slashed the tiger with his knife, and the tiger was immediately injured and injured, and a palpitating muffled snort came out of his mouth.

I saw that the tiger's limbs were a little staggering, and his huge body was already a little unstable on his feet, which showed the strength of the punch sent by Captain Qi.

"One more shot, 'Great Flame Fist!' ”

Seeing that the tiger had shown a hint of defeat, Captain Qi hurriedly took advantage of the situation to pursue the attack, and sent another stronger blow.

I saw that the flames on his fist rose again, and the flames that had originally wrapped around his fist suddenly expanded by several feet, and streams of scorching air surrounded his body.

Captain Qi raised the flame-wrapped fist again and slammed it on the tiger's back.

After being hit hard, the tiger could no longer support it, its two big copper bell-like eyes suddenly turned white, and its body shook violently, and with a "bang", it fell to the ground and couldn't get up again.

"Whew, whew...... This guy can be considered to have been solved. Captain Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"This beast is really powerful, if it weren't for Captain Qi's stunt, I'm afraid so many of us wouldn't be able to take it." Everyone looked at the tiger that fell to the ground and sighed.

"I've broken the tiger's spine in the back, and the force of the fist has invaded its body, severely wounding its internal organs, and it's dead." Captain Qi said to everyone again.

"Thanks to Captain Qi this time, Captain Qi's strength is really getting stronger and stronger."

"That's natural, with Captain Qi here, within a radius of 100 miles, who dares to provoke our Qijia Village?"

"Hmph, even if they encounter that 'Tiger Head Group' again, with Captain Qi's current strength, they won't be able to eat and walk around."

"yes, hey, then again, if that's the case, the old village chief won't be killed......"

……

As soon as the three words "Old Village Chief" fell into his ears, he saw Captain Qi's expression suddenly become gloomy, and then saw his fists clenched again, falling into silence for a while, and then a subtle voice came out of his mouth that only he could hear: "Old Village Chief, you can rest assured in the spirit of heaven, your revenge, I will personally avenge you!" Over the years, I have been working hard to improve my strength, just to settle accounts with the Tiger Head Group. ”

Afterwards, Captain Qi asked everyone to bring a thick wooden pole, tie the limbs of the tiger's corpse to it, let the two of them carry it, and then cleaned up and prepared to return to the village.

"Brother Qi Yan!"

Just as everyone was about to leave, a somewhat familiar young man's voice suddenly came, making everyone stunned.

Captain Qi turned his head to look and saw an old man and a young man rushing over one after another in front of him.

"Are you ......" Qi Yan looked at the young man who had rushed over, and after a while, he suddenly recognized him, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Brother Cheng Tian!" ”

Cheng Tian smiled and nodded.

Qi Yan hurriedly stepped forward, held his hands tightly, and said excitedly: "It's been a long time, Brother Cheng Tian, you are back!" ”

As soon as the members of the hunting team behind Qi Yan heard the word "Cheng Tian", they all looked at each other in surprise, and then they all stepped forward to meet Cheng Tian.

Although they have been separated for a long time, in the hearts of each of them, they still remember this young man who repelled the tiger head group for them and rescued the village.

"Hahaha, it's Brother Cheng Tian, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I really miss you."

"Yes, yes, you have grown taller, Brother Cheng Tian, and your body looks much tougher."

"Hehehe, it seems that there is no less training outside, it's really good."

“……”

Everyone looked at Cheng Tian with joy on their faces.

For this reason, Cheng Tian was a little shy, hehehe smiled, and then said to Qi Yan: "Brother Qi Yan, I will introduce you to someone, do you remember him?" ”

Qi Yan was stunned for a moment, and then saw Cheng Tian pointing to the thin old man beside him.

After taking a closer look at the old man's face, Qi Yan's eyes suddenly widened, he clenched his fists, bowed and saluted, "Old Mr. Xia." ”

Everyone in the hunting team was a little puzzled when they saw Qi Yan being so polite to the old man in front of them.

I saw Xia Yang smile, hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Qi Yan, and said, "No need to be polite, Qi Yan, we meet again." ”

Qi Yan also nodded with a smile and said, "I have always been looking forward to seeing Mr. Xia again. ”

"Hehehe, okay, aren't we goodbye? For this, this is thanks to this Cheng Tian brother. Xia Yang smiled, stretched out his palm and patted Cheng Tian's shoulder.

Qi Yan nodded heavily and said, "Well, Brother Cheng Tian is very kind to us, and this time I have worked tirelessly to invite you to our remote area, I really don't know how to thank him for his kindness." ”

"Hahaha." Cheng Tian was a little uncomfortable, touched his head, and said with a smile: "Brother Qi Yan is too polite, we are all friends, I should do this." ”

"Hehe, that's right, we're all friends." Xia Yang also smiled.

Qi Yan nodded, and said, "Let's go back to the village first, you two can stay in my house temporarily." ”

"Then bother." Cheng Tian and Xia Yang both smiled.

"Where, where?" Qi Yan said a few polite words.

Qi Yan thought to himself that everyone didn't know this old Mr. Xia, so he didn't introduce him, and everyone in the hunting team didn't pay much attention to it.

So they all set out and went back to the village.

……

After entering Qijia Village, Qi Yan asked the team members to put the tiger that had been killed in the central square of the village, so that the villagers who needed tiger skin, tiger meat, tiger claws, etc., could come and pick it up, on a first-come, first-served basis.

Qijia Village is a very small village, with a total of more than 50 households and less than 300 villagers.

But it is precisely because of this that everyone huddles together, helps each other, and shares weal and woe.

The hunting team, led by Qi Yan, is responsible for regularly entering the deep mountains, hunting wild beasts and ingredients, and then contributing them to the village.

Although he is still young, he is still young, but because of his strong strength, and the courage to take responsibility, and he is warm-hearted and cares for the villagers, so he is very respected and loved by the villagers.

The hunting party dispersed, and went back to their homes.

Qi Yan also invited Cheng Tian and Xia Yang to his house.

The humble two bungalows made of mud bricks and tiles are Qi Yan's home.

Of these two bungalows, one is where he lives, and the other is where his younger brother Qi Hua lives.

Qi Yan's parents died early, the brothers depended on each other, the eldest brother was like a father, and Qi Yan also loved this younger brother who was ten years younger than him.

Because of the high prestige accumulated in the village, his younger brother Qi Hua is now very much looked down upon by the villagers.

As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, Qi Yan shouted loudly: "Xiaohua, come out quickly, look who is coming?" ”

It didn't take long to see a young man about twenty years old rushing out of a house on the left, it was Qi Hua.

Qi Hua saw Cheng Tian beside Qi Yan, and it didn't take long to recognize him, "It's Brother Cheng Tian, you...... You're back! The voice was very excited.

"Well, Brother Qi Hua, I'm back, I didn't expect you to remember me?" Cheng Tian nodded with a smile, and then quipped.

"Look at what you said, how could I not remember you? I think you saved me at the beginning, and later saved our whole village. Qi Hua stepped forward with a smile and shook Cheng Tian's hand tightly.

"Who is this old man?" Qi Hua saw Xia Yang beside Cheng Tian again.

As soon as Qi Yan wanted to make an introduction, he heard Xia Yang smile and say, "The old man's surname is Xia, and he is your brother's teacher." ”

"Oh, hello Mr. Xia." Qi Hua bowed, and then wondered: "When did my brother find the teacher?" ”

After the meeting, Qi Yan invited Cheng Tian Xia Yang into his room, sat down to rest, and the two brothers went to prepare tea and melon seeds to entertain the two.

The four of them were all sitting in Qi Yan's house, laughing and talking to each other.

Qi Yan's house is the size of an ordinary living room, the ground is only roughly covered with cement, a large wooden table is placed in the middle, four or five benches are stacked on the wall, there is a water urn in the corner of the wall, which is used to hold the water used in life, and there is an iron bracket next to the water urn, and there is a wooden basin in the middle of the bracket for washing hands and faces.

There are two small bays on the left and right sides of the house, the one on the left is used to stack sundries, and the one on the right is Qi Yan's bedroom.

Dinner is in the central living room.

Cheng Tian has a lot of experience now, he has practiced all the way, it can be said that he has stayed in all kinds of places, the worst is to sleep in the wilderness, and the best is to sleep in the palace of Jinxi Kingdom, so he doesn't feel uncomfortable with Qi Yan's simple little bungalow.

Not to mention Xia Yang, the people and things he has experienced are far from being comparable to Cheng Tian, so how can he care about these? It's just that what I care about at the moment is that I learned from the mouth of the hunting team members in the road that Qi Yan is the village chief and hunting captain, and he can be said to be the first person in the village, but the conditions at the home of this first person are all simple, so what do those ordinary villagers know about in their homes?

He didn't know that although Qi Yan was now the first person in the village head, he was simple by nature, hardworking and thrifty, so his family was still as simple as ever, and the situation was not as good as that of some ordinary villagers.

……

The four of them drank tea, munched melon seeds, and chatted with each other for a while.

At this time, Xia Yang asked Qi Yan, "Qi Yan, where did you put the Fire God Jade?" ”

When Qi Yan heard this, he said to Xia Yang: "Sir, don't worry, I have been very careful to lock it in the drawer next to my bed, and the key is under my bedside pillow, and no third person knows except me and my brother." ”

Xia Yang nodded when he heard this.

Cheng Tian quipped: "Brother Qi Yan, there are already third or fourth people who know about it now." ”

Qi Yan also smiled after hearing this, "It's okay, how can you be considered outsiders?" Now, naturally, no fifth person knows. ”

"Qi Yan, I can't hide it, I came here this time mainly for one thing." Xia Yang said in a solemn tone.

"Sir, please." Qi Yan said.

"I will take you as an apprentice, and let you inherit my mantle." Xia Yang is colorful.

As soon as these words came out, Qi Yan was stunned for a while, was silent for a long time, and said: "How can Qi Yan be able to make you look down on you so much." ”

"I'll tell you the truth, you're very good, and you're the best candidate to inherit my 'Fire God Jade'." Xia Yang looked at Qi Yan.

"Isn't there Brother Cheng Tian?" Qi Yan looked at Cheng Tian again.

"Brother Cheng Tian already has a good teacher to help me, so I will tell you bluntly, Qi Yan, I will let you inherit my name as the 'God of Fire', in order to defeat a great enemy in the future with Brother Cheng Tian." Xia Yang said, "I'm old, I can't go back to the peak of the past, some time ago, I was also assassinated by gangsters, my skills were greatly damaged, and I was imprisoned, and thanks to the rescue of Brother Cheng Tian, I got away with it." Therefore, I can only find the most suitable successor, and the person I fancy is you. ”

After hearing this, Qi Yan was a little unacceptable for a while, and fell into a long silence.

Originally, he just wanted to live this simple and ordinary life, and he and his team members regularly went into the mountains to hunt to obtain some materials for the villagers to live, and then practiced martial arts hard in his spare time, hoping that one day he could find out the whereabouts of the Tiger Head Regiment, and lead the hunting team to destroy the Tiger Head Regiment and avenge the old village chief.

For the rest, he never thought about it again, and he didn't even think carefully about his own family. I thought that anyway, people live like white horses, and I and my younger brother depend on each other for their lives, and when the time comes, they will die of old age together in the village, and the future will be handed over to the villagers to help.

But now that he heard Xia Yang want him to do something he had never thought of, he was suddenly caught off guard.

"Why, don't you want to be the old man's disciple?" Xia Yang saw Qi Yan's embarrassed expression, so he asked.

"Let's go, Mr. Xia must be a master, I can have a master to help me become stronger, and I can also find the tiger head group as soon as possible to avenge the old village chief!" Qi Yan thought so.

I saw Qi Yan suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "Thanks to Mr. Xia, you can afford it, how can I refuse?" I would like to be your disciple. ”

Hearing Qi Yan say this, Cheng Tian and Xia Yang, including Qi Hua, were all overjoyed.

Qi Yan turned around and entered his bedroom again, found the key, unlocked and opened the drawer, and took out the piece of Fire God Jade that he had been cherishing all along.

Qi Yan closed the drawer, carefully put the Fire God Jade in the palm of his hand, walked out, and handed the Fire God Jade to Xia Yang to watch.

"Mr. Xia, the Fire God Jade is here." Qi Yan spread out his palms.

Xia Yang, Cheng Tian, and Qi Hua all looked at it, and saw a piece of jade the size of a palm, bright red all over, carved into the shape of a flame, lying quietly in Qi Yan's palm.
