After successfully crossing the Black River, they continued to walk on the other side of the river. Zhang Wenliang's speed was a little faster, because ...... In the waist card that he had left in the barbarian city of the Qiu Jin Continent, there was a very bad message.

Somebody has a bad idea of that waist card.

At least not the innkeeper.

It's nothing just thinking about the waist card, I'm afraid that it's Li Changyuan's kid, if he is not there, he is likely to be more auspicious, and he must hurry up and finish the matter here, and then go back to take a look.

"It's a flat environment here, so go fast."

Zhang Wenliang urged.

Houmi et al. responded:

"Yes!"

There was not a shred of green vegetation on the grey soil, and the distant environment was shrouded in dark clouds, and it was only when you got closer to within ten miles that you could see what was there.

After another day and a night, Zhang Wenliang and his party walked hundreds of miles.

Ahead, there is a fenced village, which looks more outdated than the peasant families on the outskirts of the barbarian city.

Just like the buildings of the people in ancient times, the houses in the fence separated by a circle and a half of height are also made of thick wooden stakes directly inserted into the soil, enclosed in a square to make the walls of the house, and then some small wooden strips, or crossed into a pointed roof, or directly pressed horizontally on the top, the roof is covered with a full roof.

There is no decoration, no decoration, and you can see at a glance what kind of wood it is.

…… Wait, where did they get the wood?

In this barren and barren land, not even a single grass has been seen on the ground along the way, and the houses of these natives are actually built with native wood, which makes some sense. Could it be that they have been walking for too long, or that the environment is strange enough to hallucinate them?

"Lord Xianzun, these rooms in front ......"

Zhang Wenliang's expression was as calm as water, and he said lightly:

"Let's go in, they should be the jurisdiction of the Star Dao Sect here."

Houmi was pleasantly surprised:

"Star Dao Sect?"

"Well, it can be said that now you are officially returning to your hometown."

Houmi and his fellow clansmen bowed down to Zhang Wenliang:

"Lord Xie Xianzun!"

Zhang Wenliang disagreed:

"Get up, I'm going to go back soon, remember what I told, three years later, Qiu Jin Continent needs help here, that kid, also needs your help."

"Lord Xianzun, don't worry, I, the warriors of the Grizzly Bear Clan, are willing to become a sharp sword and kill the enemy for Lord Xianzun!"

Zhang Wenliang didn't have much reaction, and said indifferently:

"That's good, this is just a small village at the foot of the mountain gate of the Star Dao Sect, you go and report to the city, explain the intention, and let the mountain gate of the Star Dao Sect accept you well."

"Yes."

Then, Zhang Wenliang turned around, flew out thousands of miles in an instant in the direction he came.

He was going back, what happened over there, Zhang Wenliang felt that his junior brother might go to help, but maybe ...... I don't know if it's too late, or if that junior brother can help.

Brute City,

In the city, in a landlord's house in the upper village, in the middle of a luxurious courtyard, there was an extremely richly decorated detached house, and a few people in it were drinking and talking.

Three of them sat at the Taichung wine table in the center of the front, next to the left and right hands, accompanied by lightly dressed beauties, and green smoke wafted out of the incense burner in the house. There are two tables next to the red pillars on both sides of the hall, and next to the low table, one is the landlord here, and the other is the local official magistrate.

Only Zhixian is alone, sitting firmly at a table with wine, fruit plates, jerky, and some ...... Hay like black leaves.

Of course, this magistrate is a thick person, and he doesn't like it, and naturally he won't touch these things.

On the other hand, the people of the three sects in front of the hall, they were the round and big-bellied lord opposite the audience, and a plump buttocks and fat waitress next to the person, when they were talking and laughing, they took a puff of cigarette from the corner of their mouths, exhaled the smoke in their mouths, and looked like they wanted to die.

"Good! Good! Very good, your baby is not bad, on the way! ～”

He Xifan said approvingly, and as he spoke, he slapped the prostitute next to him with a wicked smile and slapped it on the buttocks of the prostitute next to him, and kept ravaging it.

The prostitute looked unaware, as if she was also enjoying ......

The landlord laughed:

"It's good that the three adults are satisfied, and it's good that they're satisfied."

The fat man and the thin man in front of the table next to Hexi Fan didn't pay attention to the landlord's overtures, and the woman next to him wrapped around them with body fragrance, fascinating them with intoxication, and the fat man even went directly to his mouth, licking and gnawing on the woman.

It's a lewd look.

But the greasy pig-faced landlord also smiled secretly and insidiously when he saw it, and didn't say anything else.

The pipe was sucked and smoked, and the landlord waited for a long time, and Hexifan drank enough wine, appreciated enough beauties, and eaten enough dried meat before he took the initiative to talk about business:

"I heard that you have news that I am a member of the Crazy Sword Sect, tell me about it?"

The landlord smiled flatteringly:

"Yes, recently, the villain's subordinates inquired for the adults, in the lower village, there is a teenager who has been going to that barren forest, as if to practice swords, according to those nearby residents, a while ago, when the murder occurred, the young man was also at the scene."

"Oh? Have you found out what is the name of that person? ”

"Back to my lord, that young man is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and his name is Zhang Wenliang."

The name that the landlord actually found was a fake name used by Li Changyuan in the inn, although it was a fake name, but 'Zhang Wenliang' was not a fictitious existence.

"Zhang Wenliang? Oh, which school? ”

"This ......"

He Xifan asked, this landlord is in trouble, he did not find this information, seeing that the landlord frowned and pondered, He Xifan saw the landlord's eyes on the table of the county magistrate, the magistrate was silent, staring at the bronze cup on his table, holding the fruit in one hand and peeling it to eat.

"You don't know?"

Asked about the magistrate, the magistrate shook his head:

"I haven't heard of anything about the rivers and lakes."

The fat man sneered:

"Hey, what kind of thing is the matter of the rivers and lakes, someone died on your territory, it is only a matter of the rivers and lakes, this official is not too confused, he has been ridden by others to pee on his head, and he doesn't dare to say anything."

Zhixian is just afraid that the black gauze hat on his head will be dirty, no one knows, this Zhixian is an honest man, there are old and young in the family, all waiting for the silver two life of Zhixian, how dare he do such nonsense.

The officials of the imperial court are not so easy to be.

The emperor is far away, and now the head snake is in charge, I am afraid that I will offend the landlord here, and the magistrate will not have time to report to the court, and he will be exposed to the wilderness the next day...... It can also be said to be a normal thing.

"That's what adults teach."

The magistrate could only nod his head and promise.

"Don't talk nonsense, Zhang Wenliang, since you don't know, then let me ask in person, where does that kid live now, you should know this, right?"

He Xifan's expression was a little confused, and he said in a fluttering tone.

The landlord immediately took over the conversation:

"I know, that sinner has been living in an inn in the lower village for a while now, and he hasn't moved around in the past few days."

"Well, well done, reward!"

After speaking, He Xifan gave a look to the thin man next to him, and the thin man took out the hand between his fat legs, took out two blue, egg-sized spars from his waist wrap, and threw them next to the landlord's seat.

The landlord was delighted when he heard this, and when he saw that two things had been thrown, he hurriedly raised his hand to pick them up.

Just one in one hand, after catching it, carefully scrutinizing it, and still knowing this thing, the landlord was flattered and happy to say:

"This, this is a spirit stone, or a medium-grade spirit stone! Thank you, thank you, sir. ”

He Xifan shouted happily:

"Meaning, my family wants to ask you, has that kid gone to that place to practice swords recently?"

"Yes, yes!"

"Hehe, I really don't know whether to live or die, okay, you two should retreat first, and then the three of us will leave after we are done."

In this way, of course, the landlord knows what these three people want to do, and it is not easy to say and disturb it, after all, people's status is unattainable, and it cannot be measured just by having money. They want to do it, and let them do it.

The landlord nodded frequently, and the smile on his face was always noticeable, like a brand.

After getting up, the landlord whispered to the magistrate:

"Hey, why are you still sitting in a daze, let's go, don't make them unhappy, otherwise things will be difficult to do, go."

"Huh?"

"Let's go outside the house."

The landlord and the magistrate got up, walked out of the hall, and closed the door tightly with their backhands in a playful way, and soon, there was a burst of spring sound in the house. After waiting for some time, the sound gradually stopped, and then the three men opened the door and came out.

When they came out, the clothes on their bodies were not very neatly arranged, and they were dressed in a hurry, and the landlord naturally knew what they had done, and the clear-eyed people did not say anything, but even smiled and did not mention it.

"It tastes good, and I will come back when I have time after the thing is done."

He Xifan said with a smile on his face, and reached out to pat the landlord's shoulder.

After saying that, the three of them went out and walked away.

After the three people left the compound of the landlord's house and walked away, the magistrate on the side whispered worried:

"Old fat, this cultivator is like this?"

After watching the three people walk out of the distance, feeling that they should not hear their conversation, the landlord changed his face and said gloomily:

"Heh, what do you know, cultivators are certainly not all such virtues, but what better way do you have it? In a profession like ours, if you want to do business on an equal footing with monks, you have to take advantage of some loopholes. ”

After listening to this, the magistrate didn't say anything more.

"We businessmen only have money in hand, speaking of which, I can't compare to you, at least you have an official name in addition to money."

The landlord said this, the smile on his face was not obvious, I don't know whether it was sarcasm or true feelings.

Turning back through the door, the magistrate glimpsed the women lying on the wooden planks and tables in the room, disheveled, and the table was dirty.

The landlord did not look back to investigate, looking at the expression on the face of the magistrate, the landlord had already determined the situation inside.

Then, he also urged:

"Don't look at it, those three women will be sent away by me in the future, and at most they will go to the backyard to cook on the fire."

……

Today, Li Changyuan is late.

It was noon here, Li Changyuan got out of bed, and he remembered that Zhang Wenliang drank with himself, twice, twice, Li Changyuan was drunk, and Zhang Wenliang drank more than himself, but he was like a nobody.

'Be sure to practice your drinking!' ’

Thinking so, the night before, I was drunk all night.

In the end, the inn was transferred, and the second child on duty on the night shift was cleaning up the tables, chairs and floors, and Li Changyuan, who was struggling, moved upstairs and moved to the room to rest.

"Woo woo, why is the real master so interested, he wants to drink."

When Xiao Er came downstairs, he heard the shopkeeper complaining.

So I was curious:

"What's the matter, how much did you drink?"

"This one drink, your two months' salary is not enough."

"Shhh...... Well, that's a bit of a fierce one. ”

Ordinary people come to get drunk and buy drunk, no matter how they can drink, even if the other party is an alcoholic, from entering the door to getting drunk, it is only the amount of five or six jars of wine. But Li Changyuan is different, it may be the reason for cultivation, the night before, Li Changyuan unknowingly drank more than 20 jars of wine in the inn.

If you can't estimate it, how much wine is in a jar?

One jar can pour twenty bowls!

……

Today, well, the weather is just right, let's go get something to eat.

After a long time, the innkeeper has a clear understanding of Li Changyuan's life and rest, and every year is nothing more than getting up, eating, going out to practice swords, and after practicing swords, ,...... Come back for a drink.

Every time he said drinking, the innkeeper had a worried expression on his face, but he didn't dare to be seen by Li Changyuan, his flesh hurt,

Hiding in the corner and secretly hurting! ……

"Shopkeeper, I'll go out first."

"Eh, okay, you go slowly~"

Li Changyuan finished lunch, said hello to the innkeeper, and left the inn.

I'm going to go outside for a walk and relax.

I didn't have much money on my body, and I still carried a burning stick on my back, wrapped in a strip of cloth, it was peaceful recently, and my life was comfortable, eating and drinking in the inn, and the innkeeper didn't charge money, even if Li Changyuan took the initiative to give the silver taels, the innkeeper refused to accept it.

It's kind of weird.

As for the expenses, there will only be some when you are out and about.

For example, if he saw any novel gadgets at a roadside stall, or a toy, or a snack to eat, Li Changyuan would ask about the price because he was very curious, and if it was not very expensive, then spend money to try it.

Today, after a stroll, look up at the sun in the west, it's almost evening.

Back at the inn, after dinner, Li Changyuan went to the barren forest that he would go to every day recently.

Today is a little different......

There are three people waiting for themselves here.

Li Changyuan walked from afar, looking at the three figures in the distance, at first he was not alert, until after a certain distance, Li Changyuan glimpsed the shape of the big knife hanging behind the waist of the three of them was so familiar.

'It's someone from the Crazy Sword Sect. ’

While slowing down, he began to remove the 'burning stick' behind his back and quickly untied the strip of cloth.

Naturally, the three people sitting on the stump also noticed a figure walking in the distance. At first glance, there is nothing abnormal, but the thin figure really doesn't want to be a woodcutter or a farmer.

As soon as He Xifan remembered the information he got before, the other party was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, which looked quite similar from a distance.

When he approached, Li Changyuan looked contemptuous:

"Who?"

He Xifan didn't plan to confess yet, thinking that the other party was a child, more than six or seven years younger than himself, even if he had strength, how strong could he be?

It's better to ask about things first, and it's a good idea to be tempted.

To be honest, Hexi Fan really doesn't believe it, such a little kid can kill the six outer disciples of his own sect by himself, and if he is known, wouldn't he laugh off his big teeth?

"Hahaha, children, don't be afraid, we are good people, but we happened to pass by here when we were in a hurry, you see, there are so many tree stumps in this area, and the three of us just sit and rest."

He Xifan smirked on his face, and a fat man and a thin man sitting next to him also smirked with the sleeveless young man in front of him.

Li Changyuan, like the dead face at the beginning, said coldly:

"Are you just passing through here, then, dare to ask the three knights, where are you going?"

The fat man interjected:

"It's almost there, just the lower village in front."

Li Changyuan condensed a few more black lines in front of his forehead:

"Dare to ask, but it's an inn in the lower village?"

The fat man's face was proud, haharan:

"Hahahaha, yes, you're so smart~"

Zheng –

At a distance of ten meters, Li Changyuan confronted the three of them and began to draw his sword from its sheath.

In this scene, the three of them were stunned, the thin man was silent, and the fat man's face froze, only He Xifan understood that this was his own pretense and was seen through by the other party.

However, this also shows that the child in front of him is indeed the 'Zhang Wenliang' he is looking for, the murderer who once killed six of his own classmates!

"Kids, report your name."

"Li Changyuan."

He Xifan was a little surprised:

"Huh? Isn't your name Zhang Wenliang? ”

Li Changyuan said without pretense:

"Zhang Wenliang is a disguise, my real name is Li Changyuan, remember it, it doesn't matter if you can't remember it, anyway, the three of you won't be able to get out of here tonight."

He Xifan stood up and smiled contemptuously with his crooked mouth:

"Oh, what a big breath!"

The thin man has some scheming, and the three of them play together, most of the time because their personalities and abilities complement each other, the fat man has desires, Hexi Fan has strength, and the thin man has brains.

Soon, He Xifan and Li Changyuan stood on the spot and drew their swords against each other.

At this time, the thin man stood up and said:

"Wait,"

He looked at Li Changyuan and said:

"This hero, you misunderstood, we are not here to seek revenge."

Li Changyuan was puzzled, but he had a bottom in his heart, and on the surface, he was surprised and confused, but he was actually paying attention to the changes in the other party's posture.

"You are members of the Crazy Knife Sect, a few days ago, six people who came to provoke died at my hands, and they are all members of the Crazy Knife Sect, if you are not here to seek revenge, what are you here to do?"

The thin man smiled:

"Hey, misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

Seeing the thin man waving his hand, Hexi Fan realized what the thin man wanted to do, so he also put down the broadsword and stuck the knife on the façade to stand, indicating that he didn't want to fight.

The thin man went on to explain:

"Shaoxia, our Crazy Knife Sect has a reputation for being aggressive, but we also cherish talents, I have heard that Shaoxia won the six outer disciples of our sect with his own strength, all of our Crazy Knife Sect love talents, I am willing to ignore the past suspicions, as long as Shaoxia worships under my Crazy Knife Sect, we will be brothers in the future."

“……”

said that he was sincere, but Li Changyuan didn't look at the thin man's performance, and it was not strange to see the tendon man who had just drawn a knife, and he caught a glimpse of the fat man on the side out of the corner of his eye, but he felt that he was deliberately holding back a smile.

That kind of face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made Li Changyuan feel a little clueless.

Then, Li Changyuan tested:

"If I refuse, you're going to take revenge on me for 'killing for your life,' right?"

The thin man smiled so honestly:

"Ouch, it's not, Shaoxia is too worried, how can I be that kind of person, besides, if I really want to threaten Shaoxia, how can we only have three people, isn't it?"

"Hmmm......"

As far as Li Changyuan hesitated, the thin man took two steps forward and struck while the iron was hot:

"Shaoxia, don't worry, when you enter the Crazy Sword Sect, you don't need to participate in the assessment, with your strength, you can directly become the inner disciple of our Crazy Sword Sect. Don't underestimate the Crazy Sword Sect, on this Qiu Jin Continent, our sect can be regarded as a fifth-rate sect, and in the future, when you walk the rivers and lakes, you will have face when you say it. ”

When it comes to this, in fact......

This thin man is already exposed.

However, he thought he was smart, but he didn't know that his flaws were discovered by Li Changyuan.
