The two looked at each other, knowing that it was difficult to please today, and they couldn't understand what Beiguang said, so they didn't know how to answer for a while.

Beiguang said to the two: "You two duel here, never to the death." If you win, you can continue to be your captain. If you win, you can lie that you are not dead, and you struggle to run back and continue to be your mercenary. I act like I don't know anything. ”

The two of them shook their whole bodies, looked at each other, twisted their faces in pain, kowtowed and begged: "Senior, we know that we are wrong, spare us once, we don't want to die." ”

"You don't want to die, do they want to die?" Beiguang pointed to the team not far away and asked sharply.

The two of them looked ashamed.

Beiguang said: "In the past, there was a slave who tried to seek the private interests of a rich businessman, colluded with the government, killed a rich businessman, and married his daughter. Later, the officials were dismissed, the matter was revealed, and the house slave was hanged. You go to beat that house slave, do you know if it hurts? ”

The two shook their heads, and Beiguang said again: "You two killed these people and sold cattle, and the money you got was not enough for your life." If you kill people and kill red eyes, will you fight each other again? Will it embezzle the other party's wealth? Shall I let you duel now, and end this one? ”

The two of them were frightened into a cold sweat, and kowtowed again and again: "I know that I am wrong, I know that I am wrong, I will never do this thing again, sell the cattle, divide the money, and I will go home to farm." Thank you seniors for your advice! ”

"That is, you did not make a great mistake, and now I will spare you. Be a good man. Beiguang waved his hand.

The two knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully three times, and the big tooth cried: "The seniors saved me and the two, and dared to ask the seniors to ask the honorific number, and after going back, the big teeth carved into a tablet, and prayed day and night." "The two of them couldn't eat or sleep for the past few days, and they were in a dilemma, and they didn't know what to do. was pulled by Beiguang a little, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"My name is Beiguang." After saying that, he took China and Xiong Huang and left.

The two knelt on the ground and muttered to themselves with their heads bowed, "Beiguang? North Light? The two of them looked surprised and exclaimed at the same time: "Could it be the saint?" When he looked up again, he was nowhere to be seen.

Chi Na said: "I've killed a hundred, and it's still so troublesome." You don't know if they're going to lie, and if you're gone, they're going to kill people again, and they're just going to work in vain? ”

"Who is not a saint or a sage? The two of them were just confused for a while, not wicked, and I believe that they will not do such stupid things again in the future. China, being a human being is not as simple as you think. Everything you think is out of your nature, the mind of a wolf - the survival of the fittest. The wolf may abandon a seriously injured companion and abandon an incompetent companion. And human beings are to let everyone survive, even if they are disabled and cannot be self-reliant, they must be encouraged to live bravely. This is what makes wolves different. I think you know very well that in your people, have you ever executed a seriously wounded companion? ”

Of course, Chena has had this experience, or rather, only the Wolf King has such a right. The execution of a seriously injured wolf is the most noble ritual of the wolf clan, and it has been a custom that has been passed down for thousands of years throughout the ages. This is the rule of the wolf clan, which is conducive to the development of the wolf pack. China's hard-heartedness was also cultivated by the constant execution of seriously wounded companions. But they attach great importance to the old wolves, and generally the wolves will be supported by the young wolves when they are old. Because the old wolves have high intelligence and experience, they can lead the wolves to find water and food.

Beiguang said: "If education alone can solve the problem, it is better not to use violence." When you become a human being, you will experience it! If people have a good heart, they will be blessed by God. When people do good deeds, they will be helped. Or those two words - good. ”

What it can't stand the most is to listen to Beiguang's nagging, and every time it will be said listless, this time is no exception, lying on Xiong Huang's head and yawning. Xindao: I'll just say one sentence to lead to his long speech. How much do you enjoy being a teacher? So many of your disciples don't teach, but they come to teach me this wolf!

It's like a child who doesn't listen to adults.

China still doesn't know what kind of feelings Beiguang has to cross it. A person with such determination may not be able to appear in a thousand years.

It was a long, long time before China learned about the North Light. It knew that this guru was invincible. The Five Spirits Gate he founded will surely shine in this world.

After dozens of days, Beiguang took the two of them to a city, which was the westernmost city of the Great Kingdoms. Further west, there are endless mountains and caves of death. There is no grass there, and the four fields are full of dead silence. This will be the last leg of their journey in the human world. After here, it is the West Pole Demon Cave that China has always dreamed of, and the people here call it the land of demons.

This city is called the House of Fire.

The reason why it is called the Fire Mansion is because there is a flaming mountain in the land of demons, and the temperature of the flaming mountain is blown here due to the perennial westerly wind. Therefore, although it is geographically close to the north, and there are spring, summer, autumn and winter, the minimum temperature will not be lower than 25 degrees. At the highest, it can reach 50 degrees.

The city is remote and not as crowded as the Seven Roads City. Some of the buildings are dilapidated and look like they haven't been repaired in years. The road is very narrow, and can only accommodate two horses at the same time, and the strong wind is constantly blowing from the west, carrying a rolling heat wave, which makes people anxious. Fallen leaves and garbage fluttered in the streets, and dust and wind rolled in the air. Occasionally, people walked through the streets, and they all looked in a hurry, and ran from one door to another. One or two old women are bending over to pick up scrap. Several children were lying on the window and looking out, and the sand and dust blew into the house, and the parents found them, pulled them back and spanked them, and the sound of children crying was heard. There are also shops on the street, but because the wind is too strong, the doors are closed, and unless you knock on the door, someone will open the door and invite you in.

There were also no guards at the gates of the city, and it seems that this place did not need a garrison.

"It's remote and doesn't border other countries, so we don't send troops to reduce military spending," Beiguang explained. It's all up to the people here to manage it. It's been like this for hundreds of years. When I was in the army, I proposed to the king to strengthen the garrison here. If the northerners go around here and attack from the rear, they can occupy half a large column at once. It's a pity that the emperor didn't listen. ”

As they were walking, five or six people rode horses and roared past, and Beiguang and others flashed on the side of the road to watch. The leader of the people, squinting at Beiguang and the others, saw that it was a fresh face, ran out of twenty or thirty zhang, and then turned the horse's head back.

The man shouted on horseback, "Old man, do you know that you have to pay money when you enter the city?" The two of you and a dog will pay three taels of silver. "Because of the strong wind, if the man does not shout, the voice cannot be heard.

"What? Is a dog a human head too? Beiguang asked.

The man laughed on horseback: "The dog doesn't count, it doesn't count if it comes in with you, but it doesn't count if it comes in on its own." Don't talk nonsense, one head or two. As he spoke, he patted his chest with a knife, meaning that I would kill you if I didn't give you money.

Beiguang said: "I wandered here, and there was no silver on my body. ”

Before the man could speak, Xiong Huang took out a bag of silver, handed it to Beiguang with a smile and said, "Well, I have silver." ”

Beiguang asked, "Where did you get the money?" ”

Xiong Huang smiled: "That day, Gan Zhengge gave it to me, and told me, don't let you know." Hey. I asked him what it was. He said it was silver, but it was a good thing anyway, and he would use it later. Sure enough, it came in handy when it got here. He was really prescient, didn't he come here before? Hey. ”

Beiguang smiled, picked up two pieces from his bag, and checked them, about three or four taels. Throw it to the man.

Picking up the silver, the man sneered on the horse and said: "Hmph, Fang is only one person and one tael, delay me for these hours, see how much yellow sand has fallen on my body, the price has risen, it will cost ten taels per person." ”

The bag of silver was only thirty or forty taels, and the man saw it clearly, so he sat on the ground and raised the price. Gan Zhengge gave a lot at the beginning, Xiong Huang was too heavy and occupied a lot of space, and he threw a lot on the road. Although China can make it smaller, the weight will not change.

Beiguang smiled and took the bag of silver and threw it to the man.

"Hahaha." The man laughed wildly on his horse, and when he got the silver, he beckoned to everyone: "Go!" Today, there is enough wine and meat. Hahahaha. Where did these two big fools come from. Hahaha. His men laughed maniacally, calling them stupid.

Xiong Huang and Beiguang, one does not know the use of silver, and the other regards money as dung. But China is different, it knows what the silver is for, even though it is of no use to it. But it was blackmailed for no reason, and it was very angry in its heart, and asked, "Just give it to him?" He's clearly a robber. ”

"Perhaps, this is a custom of others, and I don't know." Saying that, Beiguang was planning to find a dilapidated house to spend the night. I heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me. They hurried to the side of the road.

This time there were five or six more people, but not the same group as before. Seeing Beiguang and the others stopping on the side of the road, the leader stretched out his hand and shouted: "Old man, you need to pay silver to enter the city." Take it, take it. One person...... Two by two! ”

Xiong Huang hurriedly said: "This time it's really gone, what should I do!" I wouldn't have thrown those away. ”

The leader patted the back of the knife and shouted, "What? No money? If you don't have any money, get out of here. ”

Xiong Huang said: "Just now, I asked each of us for ten taels, and I gave him all the bags of silver, and we don't have any now." ”

"Damn, preempted." The leader asked, "Do you know what that man looks like?" ”

"I didn't wear a shirt, I had a lot of chest hair, and I looked like I had a ring on my ear......" Xiong Huang said.

Without waiting for Xiong Huang to finish describing, the leader greeted his subordinates and said, "It turned out to be him!" One person swallowed thirty taels, so he was not greedy. Go, and let us divide the money with him. They didn't drive away Beiguang and the others, and there was a sound of horses' hooves, and a group of people hurried away.

Xiong Huang said: "Silver is really a good thing, everyone wants it." What exactly is it for? Beiguang smiled and told him the purpose of the silver, and regretted that Xiong Huang stomped his feet one after another. Repented: "I didn't expect that the silver would have so many uses, I knew that I wouldn't throw it away, and I could keep it and exchange it for medicinal materials." "I had the intention to find it, but I forgot where I threw it.

was depressed, only to hear one person: "Two of you go slowly, my master is invited." I followed the man's finger and looked up, and saw a fat man in the attic over there holding a cigarette pouch, looking like he was in his thirties, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and his small eyes were squinting at Beiguang and the others, looking like a treacherous person.

Beiguang didn't look at it, walked around the man, and walked forward. I only heard the man in the attic snort coldly, and he disappeared.

The house slave shook his head and sighed, "Poor, there are two more corpses." ”

As he was walking, an old man peeked out of the window, looked left and right, stopped Beiguang, and persuaded in a hoarse voice: "Old man, go out of the city quickly, go further, your lives will be in danger!" ”

"Oh? How so? Beiguang took two steps forward and walked to his door.

The old man opened the door like a thief, bent his back, and looked around for a long time before inviting Beiguang into the house. It was a tavern with two tables and eight stools, and the room was filled with the smell of wine and boiled broad beans. The old man brought a plate of beans and invited Beiguang to eat, but Beiguang was not polite, thanked him, and only twisted two to eat. The rest was eaten by Xiong Huang.

Beiguang asked, "My brother's surname." ”

The old man said: "My surname is Sun, because the broad beans are cooked well, people call me Boiled Beans Sun." The black chimney asked you to go up just now, why don't you go? ”

Beiguang said: "I don't know him, how can I bother?" ”

"Oops, old man. You might as well go up and have a look at him. Boiled bean Sun said: "This black chimney is angry and wants to kill." If you go, it will be considered as giving him face, if you don't go, you will obviously look down on him. He will still think in his heart, if you don't give me face in the black chimney, will you not be able to give cold and evil face? ”

"Brother Sun, in this way, there are two forces in this city?" Beiguang asked.

"Isn't it?" Boiled Bean Sun poked his head out, looked out through the window, and said, "The black chimney lives in the east of the city, and the cold evil lives in the west of the city, and they are the two overlords of the Fire Mansion, and they are both strong people who have come back alive from the land of demons. But how can one mountain accommodate two tigers? The two of them are incompatible, and they are on fire all year round. These two masters are still the masters of killing people without blinking their eyes, and there are not 10,000 but 8,000 who died in their hands. You offended the black chimney, and you can still please it? The first wave of people who asked you for money just now was the people from the black chimney. The second wave of people who asked you for money were cold and evil people. The black chimney may have asked you to go up because you were arrogant, but you should really go, brother. ”

"Then according to my brother's opinion, how should I resolve it now?"

Boiled Beans Sun pondered for a moment and said, "In my opinion, the old brother has three paths to choose from. First, apologize to the black chimney, and maybe as soon as he is happy, he will spare you. But by doing so, the cold evil won't let you go. Second, you go to the cold and evil. I don't know if he wants to take you in, but if you offend the black chimney, most of them will take you in. Thirdly, you have no choice but to run, brother, you can only run west, so he doesn't dare to chase. However, this west is a place where the demons gather, and I am afraid that if you run, it will be more than lucky. ”

Beiguang smiled: "These three roads are unreliable. ”

Boiled Dousun said again: "There is still a way to go, but I'm afraid that the old brother will not dare." ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"That's it...... Destroy two of them. At this time, I saw that the boiled bean sun's eyes were radiating fine light.

Beiguang smiled and asked, "Who is the brother?" ”
