Chapter 82: Snow and Blood
Half an hour later.
Chu Nan and Li Xu sat on the ground, panting, and took out the Eight Treasure Duck from the space utensils, Li Xu took out the pot of wine that he hadn't drunk before, and after heating it slightly, the two drank three glasses of each other proudly.
It's a pity that Geng Meng doesn't drink, just circles back and forth around the two.
On the ground, the silver spirit coins were piled up into a small mountain, and the preliminary estimate was no less than 30,000.
After a few drinks, Li Xu said: "You and I are six or four points, after all, you are the main force." ”
Chu Nan smiled softly and said: "Half, you are a monk, you know more ways than me, I just have greater killing power than you, maybe one day, after you break through the five realms, you will be stronger than me, and you will have to take care of it at that time." ”
Partnerships, each other's hearts should be open, the most taboo who shares a little more, who shares a little less, maybe at the beginning such a trivial thing is inconspicuous, after a long time, the person who divides less, will inevitably fall into a heart disease.
Brothers, and even many couples who share the same bed, are unconsciously going to the opposite side because of these things.
Even, some fathers and sons will not obey anyone in the end because of these things.
Money is indeed very important to Chu Nan at the moment, but it will not make Chu Nan's chic fall off the scales.
Li Xu insisted: "It's different, I'm following you, it's just hugging my thighs, this is also my true words." ”
Chu Nan said with a determined face: "Half of the pieces, the previous spirit roots are one big and one small, there is really no way, but this time the silver spirit coin must be divided in half." ”
"You and I are heart-to-heart, and the deal is not at this time."
"Everyone has a strong time, and everyone has a weak time, if you really care about these things, it will be boring."
"Don't talk about it again."
Li Xu was at a loss in his heart, since he was a child, he really had never seen such a frank and bold person as Chu Nan, some people just looked frank and bold, and in front of actual interests, they would reveal their true colors.
"Thank you." Li Xu said from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Nan patted Li Xu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You don't have to say thank you, we are brothers who live and die together." ”
"Besides, I also know in my heart that so many silver spirit coins just look too much, which solves our urgent needs, but compared to the people who have really been greatly cultivated in the Cloud Gate Mountains, our harvest is actually not stout."
"There's still a long way to go."
Li Xu nodded approvingly.
People who have never seen the world will swell to the point where they don't know who they are after a small achievement.
The arrogance of the poor is the most repugnant.
Chu Nan got up and said, "We should go too." ”
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, the silver spirit mine here has been almost completely refined into silver spirit coins by the two of them, at most there is a trace of slag left, and the only regret is that no new silver spirit root has been found.
After a brief tidying up, the two of them and the dog left the cave.
Outside, the wind and snow are still there.
Fortunately, the old man didn't bring anyone with him before, and there were no other people around.
This time it can't be said that he made a big fortune quietly, it can only be regarded as a small fortune.
Yellow dog Gengmeng continued to walk in front to lead the way, and Chu Nan and Li Xu followed slowly and leisurely.
All the way over the mountains and mountains, the yellow dog has been deliberately avoiding unnecessary crowds, but as he walked, there were still dense footprints in the snow, and at a glance, there were no less than fifty people.
This time, the yellow dog was determined to walk towards the crowded place.
Li Xu took a deep breath and said, "Is it going to be a tough battle this time?" ”
Chu Nan knew in his heart that the yellow dog would not walk towards a crowded place for no reason, and joked at Li Xu: "Are you weak-hearted?" ”
Lixiu didn't pretend to be a manly man, and said honestly: "The melee is indeed a little weak-hearted, and sometimes, I don't know who stabbed a sword in the back and slashed it. ”
"A lot of people died in the scuffle."
Chu Nan smiled and said, "You rely too much on your bow and arrow, in fact, you can consider honing your courage in the melee." ”
Li Xu's face was slightly embarrassed, and he didn't know how to reply for a while.
In the same realm, even if Li Xu was not so confident, he still dared to show his sword, but in this Yunmen Mountain Range, if he was not careful, he would meet a strong man in the Hedao and even the Jindan Realm.
To temper your will, you need a suitable opportunity and a suitable opponent.
If you directly cross the border to challenge, you don't know how you died.
But if you don't dare to cross the border to challenge, you will fall into a heart disease that is not confident enough.
This is also practice, Li Xu knows these truths, many people know these truths, but they don't know how to do it.
Chu Nan is just a nice word, if he really meets a martial artist from the Great Sun Realm or a monk from the Jindan Realm, Chu Nan doesn't have much courage to fight head-on.
If it comes to the step of life and death, it can only break the jar and break it, and if you fight for death, you will have to splash the other party's blood.
After a stick of incense, under the leadership of the yellow dog, Chu Nan and Li Xu came to a flat land with a wide field of vision, the snow in the snow was very thick, and the cold wind was howling.
There were dense footprints on the ground, and after walking a little further, I finally saw a person at the end of my vision.
The crowd dispersed, shouting incessantly, and hundreds of people gathered here.
Chu Nan and Li Xu looked suspicious, and after a closer look, these hundreds of people did not belong to the same forces, Chu Nan heard the Xizhou accent, and also heard the Daqin accent, as well as the people from other places.
The two quickened their pace, and soon came to the edge of the crowd, and the people around them didn't react much when they saw Chu Nan and Li Xu coming.
Suddenly, out of the corner of Chu Nan's eye, he caught a glimpse of the old man he had met in the cave before.
The old man stood alone at the edge of the crowd, and Chu Nan, Li Xu, and the yellow dog quickly walked towards the old man.
In front of the crowd, there is a sinkhole with a radius of about twenty zhang, about six zhang deep, and in the sinkhole, there are two sword corrections accumulating sword intent.
Both of them are in the realm of Hedao, which is not only a heart-to-heart duel, but also a rival in love when they meet.
Many people around are betting, some people bet that the person with the long sword will win, and some people bet that the person with the short sword will win.
The sword momentum of the two of them became more and more turbulent, like a wave that was about to erupt.
The old man looked very seriously, but at this moment he didn't realize that someone was behind him.
Chu Nan and Li Xu also heard the conversation of the rest of the people on the way over, and they already knew what was going on here.
"What kind of excitement is this, worthy of so many people's stops?" Chu Nan asked.
The old man turned his head suddenly, and when he saw that it was Chu Nan and Li Xu, his face changed, but the old man reacted quickly, and hurriedly squeezed out a far-fetched smile, and said: "The enemy in love will fight to the death, both of them are at the peak of the path, and the winner may enter the Jindan realm immediately." ”
The sword cultivation of the Jindan Realm is enough to compete with the martial artists of the Great Sun Realm, even if it is not the opponent of the martial artists of the Great Sun Realm, the gap will not be too big.
Chu Nan took two steps forward, and inside the sinkhole, the sword qi roared, like a dragon's roar.
Seeing Chu Nan here, the old man was under a lot of pressure in his heart, and just as he was about to leave, Li Xu opened his mouth and asked again, "Why have you been accumulating sword intent for so long?" ”
The old man was two big, and explained: "Both of them are pushing themselves into the pinnacle realm, the pinnacle to the peak, after winning, you can be reborn in Nirvana, if there is a state of mind, the sword intent has not reached the peak, that is, the victory is less meaningful, pure duel, regardless of the state of mind, true yuan, sword intent, and sword gang must be brewed to the peak." ”
Li Xu saw the unnaturalness on the old man's face, and smiled softly: "We have a good deal, seniors don't need to be nervous, let's watch this lively scene together, how about it?" ”
Hearing this, the old man didn't know whether he was relieved, or his mood was heavier, and he smiled a little innocently.
Chu Nan opened the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye to look at the two people in the sinkhole below, the sword intent of the person holding the long sword had not yet reached the realm of harmony and wishfulness, but the person holding the short sword had reached the peak, and he was still waiting for the person holding the long sword.
Chu Nan asked curiously: "Since it is a rival in love, if you want to come to that woman, it should be quite smart." ”
The old man smiled strangely and said: "It's not as gorgeous as the little brother imagined, look, it's standing on the snowdrift in the northernmost part of the sinkhole, the one wearing a long brown cotton jacket." ”
Chu Nan raised his head and looked at the small snowdrift in the north, the girl was about twenty years old, not tall, but also short, the whole was very well-proportioned, that face was not how to hook people's souls, a little simple, but it was very attractive, and it could withstand careful scrutiny.
The girl's face was calm, and the snowflakes fell on her eyelashes without the slightest movement.
No one knows, what is going on in her mind.
But there is one thing that everyone can see.
After the two of them accumulate the peak of their sword intent, they will decide the winner within one move.
Pure battle of the heart, without any tactical skills, fighting is the essence.
After winning, at least for some time, the road to kendo will be a smooth one.
The loser, even if he doesn't die, can't have much success in the future.
Once the spirit is defeated, there is no future to speak of.
Reduced to mediocrity, for a sword cultivator who was once ambitious and proud, it was absolutely impossible.
Anyone can die better than to live, but sword cultivation cannot.
The sword, after all, is to see blood.
The old man sighed beside Chu Nan: "At a young age, I really don't know if this kind of thing is a good thing or a bad thing." ”
"People of our age would never do such stupid things."
"To say that it sounds good is the spirit of nobility, to say that it is ugly, it is not knowing life and death."
Chu Nan did not comment on the old man's words, nor did he comment on what was happening at the moment, he was just coming to see the lively people, and he would not bet.
Zheng Zheng Zheng!
Countless sword lights burst into the sky from the sinkhole, shooting at the bullfight.
Nearly broke through the gloomy sky.
Within a radius of ten miles, the wind and snow are still, and the needles falling between heaven and earth can be heard.
The people watching the battle were not noisy, except for the girl standing on the snowdrift, tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes.
The two people in the sinkhole moved.
Infinite sword light crisscrossed and staggered, stirring up a long river of sword qi with brilliant waves.
The two of them poured their lifelong sword intent into a single sword.
Zheng!
A crisp and loud sword roar sounded, like the first sound when chaos opened the sky.
Countless sword qi slowly dissipated, and the snowflakes in the sky fell as usual.
The spectators watched in amazement at the scene inside the sinkhole.
Jian Xiu, who was holding a short sword, pierced the opponent's heart with a sword.
Jian Xiu, who was holding a long sword, pierced the opponent's shoulder bone with a sword, and if it deviated slightly by two inches, he could also pierce the opponent's heart with a sword.
It's just two inches off.
The man with the short sword won the battle of his heart.
The man with the sword in his hand fell weakly in a pool of blood, blood and snow intertwined, like the sun without temperature and vitality in spring.
The man holding the short sword in his hand, his aura soared, and countless subtle and meticulous sword intents poured out from his body, and then formed a sword domain, and the sword domain continued to expand.
The people watching the battle began to retreat, and the sword intent of the Jindan Realm, once it was contaminated, was likely to be explained here.
Chu Nan, Li Xu, Yellow Dog, and the old man also quickly retreated.
The sword domain continued to expand, enveloping a hundred feet away.
In the sword domain, the man holding the short sword jumped lightly and came to the girl standing on the snowdrift, at this moment he was full of pride, eager to look up to the sky and howl, venting the happiness in his heart.
But in front of the woman he loved, he couldn't bear the pride at this moment.
Slowly raised his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes.
said softly: "In the future, your path will not be lonely, I will always be with you." ”
"Even if I don't know who you love."
The girl's face was expressionless, it was this man who had just won the victory, the man who had always loved her deeply, and he didn't know what was going on in her heart.
He slowly hugged the waist of the girl's family and embraced the beauty into his arms.
She is not pretty, but in his eyes, she is the most beautiful girl in the world.
After feeling the body temperature of the girl's house, the man with the short sword in his hand arrived at the early stage of the Jindan Realm as he wished, and the best moment in his life was nothing more than this.
As for whether this is the only pinnacle of this sword cultivator in this life, it needs to be proved slowly.
The most desirable things in life are actually just a few things.
I don't know how long it took, the sword domain slowly disappeared, and everything returned to its previous state.
The people who bet were mixed, some laughed, some were depressed, and some lost their entire net worth in this duel.
After the event, the crowd began to disperse.
The Yunmeng Mountain Range is still the Longtan Tiger's Den.
Chu Nan looked at the yellow dog lightly and found that the yellow dog did not plan to leave here.
The old man on the side saw that the excitement had dispersed, and hurriedly greeted: "Two, the mountains are high and the water is long, and there will be a period later." ”
Chu Nan hummed and said, "Okay, if we meet in another country in the future, let's find a place to have a few drinks." ”
The old man waved his hand and left, so dangerous, these two little brothers did not poison him this time.
That's it, in the process of watching the battle, the old man's heart is always up and down.
Fortunately, these two little brothers are still particular about people.
Li Xu looked into the distance, the victorious sword cultivator, picked up his beloved girl and went away from the wind.
He was a little envious of that sword cultivator, and suddenly asked Chu Nan, "Have you ever fought for the woman you love?" ”
Chu Nan was stunned on the spot and said, "No, I don't have a beloved woman, I'm still young." ”
Li Xu smiled implicitly and said: "Twelve or thirteen years old, it's almost the beginning of love, could it be that the women around you are too ugly and make you discouraged?" ”
"I don't believe it, you haven't been in contact with some women?"
Chu Nan replied indifferently: "There are some elderly women who have some thoughts about me, my heart is frank and open, and I haven't met the bitter things of my children's love for the time being." ”
"Did you fight for the woman you love and win?"
Li Xu paused, and said meaningfully: "I want to fight hard, but it's a pity that the person I love looks down on me, maybe she knows that I love her very much, so she dares to look down on me." ”
Seeing the very sad look on Li Xu's face, Chu Nan asked, "Isn't there a gap in life background?" ”
Li Xu smiled indifferently and said: "That's not true, in front of me, she is really a child of a poor family, but she just looks down on me." ”
Chu Nan gave Li Xu a thumbs up and said, "Good job." ”
Li Xu didn't know why, and asked rhetorically: "Why?" ”
Chu Nan said with a smile: "Since your strength is above her, and she looks down on you, you didn't take it by force and forcibly occupy other people's bodies, this is good, a manly man, you still have to have the open-mindedness and bearing." ”
Li Xu felt that he and Chu Nan couldn't tell these things clearly, and there were some things that only people who had touched their hearts could understand.
"We're not leaving?" Li Xu asked as soon as he spoke.
Chu Nan glanced at the yellow dog Geng Meng, and gave Li Xu another hint, and the latter immediately understood.
Looking around, an open place, such a place, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a dragon's feng shui, because it's too ordinary.
We'll have to wait a while, and those who are watching the excitement haven't gone far yet.
"What is the estimate?" Li Xu asked curiously.
Chu Nan opened the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye and looked around the four fields, but he couldn't see anything different here.
Suddenly, Geng Meng pricked up his ears.
The breath of the yellow dog began to bloom, and he wanted to turn into a golden beast.
Chu Nan hurriedly said, "Don't worry. ”
Between the words, the knife was already in his hand, and Li Xu had already opened his bow and arrows.
In the distance, a familiar voice was heard.
"I didn't expect it to be your friend! It's been a long time. ”
Chu Nan looked ahead, a man and a woman came in the wind, in the wind and snow, like an immortal crossing the border.
The leader is a very beautiful girl's family, which really has the color of a captivating city.
She was dressed in a pale gold dress, with a slender figure, fair skin, and a delicate and beautiful face, revealing natural nobility and arrogance.
And behind the girl's house, there is a man with a short figure.
Ji Yao came, and in an instant, a light light descended in front of Chu Nan, revealing a faint body fragrance on her body, impacting Chu Nan and Li Xu's sense of smell and body.
Chu Nan never thought that he would meet Ji Yao here.
Ji Yao smiled charmingly, looked at Chu Nan directly, and said: "The moonlight really makes people look radiant, and now that I look at it like this, it really looks like a jade tree in the wind, and it has the appearance of a beautiful wall." ”
As for Li Xu on the side, Ji Yao didn't take a look.
Instead, he took a closer look at the yellow dog Gengmeng, waved his hand and greeted: "We are friends, don't show your fangs to friends." ”
Chu Nan couldn't cry or laugh for a while, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm?" ”
Ji Yao smiled: "It's okay, there is a harvest, and the body bones are quite tough." ”
Chu Nan said: "Actually, the deliberate old-fashioned Hengqiu is not very good, and it is a little awkward. ”
Ji Yao pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes were seductive, and she said, "You are still so good at talking, I like it very much." ”
Chu Nan said: "So, we want to make way for you?" ”
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the man with a short figure, in such a situation, there was only a dead end if he didn't give way.
After Ji Yao heard this, she hurriedly smiled and said: "No, no, I said, we are friends, and friends should always support and take care of each other." ”
Chu Nan looked at Ji Yao suspiciously, what kind of song is this?
Ji Yao didn't respond positively, glanced at Li Xu for the first time, and asked curiously, "Who is this?" ”
Chu Nan introduced: "My friend, Li Xu, is from the Qi Kingdom. ”
Ji Yao let out a faint sigh, then turned to look at the man with a short figure.
The man instantly knelt on the ground and punched the snow with his footprints, and the snow cracked in an instant!
