When Li Shenzhou opened his eyes, he suddenly found that they had come to a strange place, this was a dense jungle, and there was a dirt road in front of him, which spread into the distance.

They glanced at each other, then looked behind them, and behind them was the same jungle, densely intertwined with vines.

They walked forward, along the dirt road into the distance, and soon the three of them found an ancient town, standing in the distance.

In front of the ancient town, there is also an archway, on which there are four big characters, "Yongle Ancient Town"

Vaguely, they saw people coming and going in the ancient town, which looked extremely lively.

This made the three of them stop, and a flash of incredulity flashed in their eyes.

In the spiritual realm of this mountain god, there is even an ancient town full of popularity, what are you kidding.

"Let's go, go in and have a look, the old man said that the seal is here, maybe it is because of that seal that there will be living people here."

Li Shenzhou said with a solemn face.

The other two nodded, and walked towards the ancient town in the distance.

Soon, they came to the gate of the ancient town, and their dress attracted the attention of many people, who were all looking at them curiously and discussing on the side.

However, the three of them didn't care, just looked around vigilantly.

The ancient town is extremely lively, there are steamed buns, candy people, and vegetable sellers...... I can't tell that this is in a spiritual realm at all.

"Where will the seals be? If it was in this ancient town, why would the old man say that they couldn't get it even if they tried their best? ”

Li Shenzhou muttered to himself.

His instinct told him that this ancient town had this big secret, but they hadn't come into contact with it yet.

Thinking of this, he looked at a steamed bun stall on the side, strode forward, and said with a smile, "Boss, bring me a basket of steamed buns." ”

"Okay."

The man behind the stall responded with a smile and skillfully brought them a basket of steamed buns.

Li Shenzhou took out a small piece of broken silver from his body and handed it to the other party.

"I don't need so much, I can't find it."

The boss looked at Li Shenzhou with an embarrassed face, and did not take the silver.

"It's okay, the rest will be given to the boss, I want to inquire, where is our ancient town, we accidentally entered here and got lost for a while."

Li Shenzhou said with a smile.

"I see, no wonder the three of them don't look like locals, but we are special here, it is generally difficult for outsiders to enter, enter the ancient town, and it is very difficult to leave, anyway, I have lived here all my life, and I have never left the ancient town."

The boss behind the bun stall spoke helplessly.

"It's better for the three of you to go to the old man Chen in the west of the ancient town, he has lived here for the longest time, and he has been here since I can remember, maybe he knows how to leave."

The other party said with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Shenzhou nodded, "Then thank you, I don't know where the old man Chen is in your mouth?" ”

The other party pointed them in a direction, "Keep moving forward, turn around on the left-hand side, and see a ruined temple, and it is Old Man Chen who is lying in the temple drinking." ”

Li Shenzhou thanked the other party again, and then led the two of them to the front.

On the way, he bought another jug of wine.

"Is it for that old man Chen to buy wine?"

Chang Shan asked.

"Since you have entered other people's territory, you naturally have to lower your attitude, after all, we are not here to fight, but to hunt for treasure."

Li Shenzhou chuckled lightly and spoke.

Soon, they came to a ruined temple on the outskirts of the ancient town, with its gate open and the walls on one side in tatters, looking in disrepair.

Above the temple gate, there are still a few words vaguely, Li Shenzhou and a few people carefully identified it, and only then did they vaguely see that this seemed to be the three words "Yongle Temple".

Walking on the bluestone steps, they entered the temple, which had a huge stove, but there was no incense for a long time.

The ground was littered with fallen leaves, and no one cleaned them.

The front is a large hall, the strange thing is that there is no Buddha statue in the main hall, there is just a statue, which is carved from stone, heroic and extraordinary, the strange thing is that the face of this statue is extremely blurred, it seems that the carving does not know that the face of the owner of the statue should be depicted, and it can only be blurred.

Underneath the statue, a scruffy old man is sleeping on the ground with a jug of wine, snoring and snoring.

Their arrival also did not attract the attention of the other party.

"This is Old Man Chen? It looks like an ordinary person. ”

Yuan Qingshan said.

On Chang Shan's forehead, the third eye tried to open, but the moment he opened it, he suddenly let out a miserable scream, and his eyes closed instantly, and a trace of blood flowed out.

"What's going on?"

Li Shenzhou and Yuan Qingshan were both startled, and hurriedly looked at Chang Shan.

Chang Shan looked at the old man lying on the ground sleeping with a frightened face, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, "I just wanted to find out the truth of this old man, but as a result, the moment I opened my eyes, I only saw a terrifying sword qi attacking, which seemed to want to kill me, fortunately, I reacted quickly and closed my eyes directly, otherwise, I would be dead now." ”

"Sword Qi?"

Hearing this, Li Shenzhou's eyes froze, "It seems that we didn't find the wrong person." ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and said, "Old man, we are night watchmen from the outside world, and we are here to find a seal, I wonder if we can give us some pointers?" ”

After speaking, he looked at the old man on the ground, but the other party was still asleep, as if he hadn't heard it.

Li Shenzhou and the others naturally didn't believe that the other party was really sleeping, with such a big movement of the three of them, a pig would be woken up, not to mention that they almost killed Chang Shan's other party with a sword qi.

"Old man, I don't want to do anything with you, I hope you don't make it difficult for me."

Li Shenzhou spoke in a low tone.

He was also a little jealous of this place, and once he did it, he was not sure if he could leave this ghost place alive.

"Sneer......"

Suddenly, they heard a strange sound coming from the side of the main hall, as if someone was grinding something.

Li Shenzhou's eyes flashed, and he didn't continue to stay here, but turned around and walked towards the side door, wanting to see what was going on there.

As soon as they came out of the side door, they saw a young man in the courtyard squatting in front of a stone sharpening his sword, which seemed to be a rusty long sword, which had been stored for I don't know how many years, and it looked like it would break at any time.

The boy gripped the sword in both hands, grinding it against the stone, as if trying to rub the rust away.

The boy seemed to be preoccupied with sharpening his sword, not even noticing their intrusion.

The three of them stood in front of each other, watching this scene quietly, the young man looked thirteen or fourteen years old, slightly immature, but he was extremely handsome, and his eyes were as bright as stars.

It seems that he has been sharpening his sword for a long time, and with beads of sweat on his forehead, he keeps falling to the ground.

"Young man, this sword is so old, why don't you replace it with a new one."

Li Shenzhou spoke, breaking the silence in the courtyard.

The other party finally saw them at this time, raised his head, with a touch of surprise in his eyes, but when he heard Li Shenzhou's words, he still quickly shook his head, "No, this sword can't be changed, I've been sharpening it for almost ten years, and I can't give up halfway." ”

"I've been sharpening my sword for ten years!"

Hearing this, several people were a little moved, and they didn't seem to dare to believe that a young man who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old had been sharpening his sword for ten years, which meant that the other party had been sharpening his sword since he was three or four years old.

They don't quite understand why.

"Why are you sharpening your sword?"

Li Shenzhou asked curiously again.

"Grandpa asked me to sharpen it, saying that when I can sharpen the sword to his satisfaction, I will be qualified to become a sword bearer."

The boy spoke sincerely.

"Who is your grandfather, is it the old man who sleeps in the hall?"

Chang Shan asked.

"Be respectful to my grandfather."

The young man looked at Chang Shan dissatisfied, as if he was a little angry.

"I'm sorry, this companion of mine is not sensible, I apologize to you on his behalf, why does your grandfather want you to sharpen your sword? Also, what is a sword-wielder? ”

Li Shenzhou opened his mouth, stopped Chang Shan, and asked with a gentle face.

"Because I want to protect this town, grandpa has held on for too long, I want to help grandpa share the burden, only by becoming a sword bearer, can I help grandpa."

The boy said with some sadness.

Li Shenzhou's eyes kept flickering, from these two sentences, he got a lot of information, there seems to be danger outside this ancient town, his grandfather, that is, the old man who is sleeping, has been guarding this ancient town, and there is also an identity of a sword bearer, if the young man wants to help his grandfather share, then only if he becomes a sword bearer.

But the old man seemed to be dying.

He pondered for a moment and asked another crucial question, "What is the danger outside of this ancient town, and what is the so-called sword-wielder?" ”

The young man was about to speak, but suddenly thought of something, and shook his head, "You don't need to know, it's better to get out of here as soon as possible." ”

"You tell us, maybe we can help you."

Li Shenzhou smiled slightly, the long knife in his hand came out of the sheath, and thousands of swords were drawn in an instant, "I am also a martial artist, if there is danger, I should be able to help you some." ”

He thought that there would be a hint of amazement in the other party's eyes, after all, with his cultivation, it was not more than enough to fool a teenager.

However, the next moment, he was stunned, and the young man looked at him with a touch of pity in his eyes, "Forget it, you better go, with your strength, you can't even live a stick of incense after nightfall in the ancient town." ”

Looking at the other party's eyes, Li Shenzhou couldn't help but twitch his old face, he had fought horses all his life, he didn't know how many crises he had experienced, and he had never been so underestimated, or by a young man.

At this moment, he only felt panicked all over his body.

Yuan Qingshan and Chang Shan both looked at the young man with a strange expression, wondering if the other party had a problem with his head, the three of them joined forces, even if they were sure to kill the six-rank martial artists, this young man would dare to look down on them.

After the young man finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to sharpen his sword, it seemed that for him, sharpening his sword was a big thing, and other than that, it was a small matter.
