The two sanxiu stepped on a small fishing boat and looked at the small courtyard by the river from a distance.

Both of them looked to be in their thirties and forties, both of them were second-level Qi cultivation cultivators, and they just watched from afar like this for a long time.

"How about it, do you want to go and see it?" The man in Tsing Yi couldn't hold back and was a little eager to try.

"This ...... Want to stop looking? The man in gray hesitated.

"What are you hesitating about, you have also seen the Baijiang Gang station, there is not a single valuable thing left, and the building has long been empty.

The Baijiang Gang is gone, will the Baijiang Gang Leader be left alone?! The man in Tsing Yi tried his best to persuade.

"Don't grind, if you drag it out, there will be more and more people coming over, and you won't have a chance to pick up the leak!"

Outsiders don't know about the drastic changes of the Baijiang Gang these days, and their speculations are based on the original information.

The information they knew was that there was rumored to have a first-order mid-grade spiritual land in that small courtyard, which could be used by mid-stage Qi cultivation cultivators to practice all year round, and since the Baijiang Gang occupied this section of the river, it had become the cultivation place of the Baijiang Gang Leader.

The man in gray was still worried, and when the man in Tsing Yi saw this, he no longer persuaded him, picked up the hem of his robe, jumped into the river, and ran on the river.

"If you don't go, then I'll go alone!"

Seeing this, the man in gray finally stopped hesitating, and immediately jumped into the river and followed.

Soon, the two of them had jumped onto the river beach and came to the door of the small courtyard.

The two of them turned a blind eye to the closed courtyard gate, glanced at each other, and the two of them moved a few steps to the left and right, avoiding the courtyard gate, and jumped high.

Soon, the two of them had jumped directly above the courtyard wall, and their figures began to fall.

Everything in the courtyard also came into the eyes of the two of them, and it was like falling into an ice cave in an instant.

A long, clear man stood in the courtyard, his eyes piercing at the two of them like electricity.

And just when they saw him, he was waving his palms, and the two powerful hands came out of his body, quickly becoming larger, and slapped straight towards the two of them.

"Get out!"

The two of them were in the air, their bodies had just fallen from the highest place, and they had nowhere to focus, except for quickly holding up the mana shield and resisting, they couldn't even dodge.

"Bang" "Bang"

With two muffled sounds, the two of them were like two flies that were swatted away, "popping" twice, and fell on the river beach more than ten meters away from the small courtyard.

The two of them rolled over and got up, not daring to stay longer for a moment, and ran wildly into the distance.

……

At this moment, Meng Zhou's appearance changed greatly, even if Xu Lei was in person, he couldn't recognize him.

Not only is he a few centimeters shorter than the original owner, but he is also thinner, and more importantly, his facial features are completely different from the original owner's, and the iconic thick long hair only retains a small part of the lower jaw, and it is thinner and shorter.

Anyone who sees it will not associate him with the original owner.

Now that the Baijiang Gang has left, Meng Zhou naturally won't live here with the appearance of the original owner, and there are a lot of casual cultivators who have been "bullied" by the original owner along the Baijiang River, and he doesn't want to take over these past grievances.

easily drove away these two people, but Meng Zhou's mood was not easy at all.

There are one and two, and as long as he stays here, such troubles will continue to come to him.

"Hey, my heart is still not ruthless enough, the next time I encounter this incident, I can't simply drive away the matter, I must set up a strong authority to succeed, otherwise, it will really be endless in the future."

Meng Zhou reflected in his heart, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he continued to cultivate.

It was fine when he practiced martial arts during the day, but he practiced water cultivation in the quiet room at night, and in order to avoid being touched by someone at the door of the house without knowing it, he didn't dare to be too involved, so that he was in a semi-conscious state at any time.

The cost of this is that the operation of mana has become less smooth, and it takes longer to cultivate for a week, and the consumption of mental energy is also greater.

However, it turned out that it was very necessary for him to maintain such vigilance.

Just when he had finished cultivating for ten weeks, and the time entered the second half of the night, when everything was silent, Meng Zhou, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, pulled through the corner of the stone couch and put on the first-order high-grade robe, and quietly sneaked out of the quiet room.

In the small courtyard, in the dim night, four black and swarthy humanoid silhouettes were scattered in the small courtyard, quietly approaching in the direction of the quiet room.

Meng Zhou suddenly burst out of the quiet room, obviously startling them as well.

However, the two people who were slightly in front of them and were also closest to Meng Zhou attacked Meng Zhou almost at the same time.

One person held a long sword in his hand, and the long sword waved, forming a fan-shaped sword light like a peacock opening a screen, rotating and cutting like a sawtooth, and swept directly towards Meng Zhou's waist.

The other person waved his hand and shot out several sharp hidden weapons like crescents, spinning at high speed and attacking Meng Zhou's upper, middle and lower three ways.

The attacks of the two were not only decisive and fierce, but also formed a very tacit cooperation.

The space around Meng Zhou's body was almost completely locked.

"It's on!"

Just when the two of them were happy in their hearts, expecting the attack to tear the person in front of them to pieces, the next moment, the figure in front of them shattered like foam.

It could be that the opponent was moving too fast, or it could be that they were confused by the opponent in the first place and attacked a fake target.

The two of them were secretly in their hearts, and the man with the sword shouted and reminded: "Be careful! ”

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the other person's head had already burst open, and his head was like a broken watermelon.

The sword-wielding man didn't even have time to be angry and grieving, and a strong sense of crisis drove him to dance the long sword in his hand into a sword light barrier.

"Bell", "bell", "bell", "bell", "bell" ......

A series of crisp sounds like gold and iron clashes, and one by one the spiral blades slammed into the sword curtain.

This person secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but in the next moment, he only felt a chill down his spine.

Taking advantage of the fact that all his attention was attracted by the frontal attack, the two spiral knives came behind him in a huge arc from the left and right sides, like a flying swallow throwing into a forest, and slashed at the back of his neck almost at the same time.

The next moment, a head flew high, and below this head, there was a powerful fountain of blood.

It didn't take long to deal with these two people, but when Meng Zhou finished all this and looked at the other two, their figures just fell from the sky, hidden outside the courtyard wall.

Meng Zhou didn't chase after him, but just warned loudly: "It's just three things, next time you two come back, don't really leave!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare......"

……

Time is turned back slightly.

Late at night, on the river.

The four figures stepped on the small fishing boat and looked at the dark courtyard in the distance.

Two of them were the men in Tsing Yi and the men in gray who were driven away by Meng Zhou's palm during the day.

The aura of the other two is obviously stronger than that of the two, and they both have a three-level cultivation of qi cultivation.

The man with the sword hanging from his waist was talking to the two in a low voice: "Tell me what happened to you at that time!" ”

In the face of the inquiries of the two stronger people, the two did not dare not answer, and tried their best to recall their feelings at the time and tell the two of them to know.

Listening to what they said, the person who stood quietly aside, and had never said a word, suddenly slapped two palms at the two of them, and the two powerful hands slapped them on the head in the next moment.

The two of them subconsciously cast their mana shields to block in front.

"Bang bang" two sounds, although the two were not harmed, but the mana shield was also damaged in this battle, if the other party followed closely after the mana hand and attacked again, the two would definitely be unable to stop.

"Well, how is his attack better than mine?"

"To ...... Worse. ”

"Be specific."

"The mana is weaker, and the sense of oppression is slightly weaker."

So, the man said his judgment: "The second layer of Qi training, the crane control hand has a master level, it is worth a try!" ”

"Well, though, be careful, and we'll do this later...... Again......

Before the operation, the two made detailed plans and arrangements, and they were extremely safe.

However, as soon as the group was admitted to the hospital, one was shot in the head, and the other was beheaded immediately afterward.

The man in green and the man in gray were scared, but fortunately, because the two of them had the experience of being swatted like flies for the first time, they were timid or expected, and they successfully escaped from the tiger's mouth before the two were completely killed.

The two returned to the wooden boat in the river again, and they did not stop for a moment, and they flew away.

Passing by the noisy, lively and chaotic former Baijiang Gang station next to them, neither of them stopped at all.

"I can't stay with you anymore." The man in gray said suddenly.

"Huh?" The man in Tsing Yi was puzzled.

"I entered the cultivation door by chance, searched for the Tao for more than ten years, and survived dozens of near-deaths, but now that I am getting older, I can say that I have found nothing except for an injury.

I was tired, gave up, and didn't want to toss anymore...... In the future, if you still want to seek the avenue, you can only go alone. ”

“…… Ask for an egg! The man in Tsing Yi was silent for a long time, and suddenly burst into a foul language, and then asked:

"That'...... What's next? ”

"I want to go back to my hometown to open a restaurant and receive heroes from all over the world, before I entered the cultivation circle, this is my biggest dream."

"Then I'll be a little second for you......"

……

Meng Zhou leaned over and groped around the two corpses, clearing out all the bits and pieces on the two bodies, and then walked out of the small courtyard one by one.

After a while, Meng Zhou patted his wet and freshly washed hands and walked into the small courtyard, and took the pile of bits and pieces that were cleared from the two of them back to the quiet room.

The most valuable thing on the two of them was the long sword and eighteen crescent-shaped blades.

They are not magic weapons, but they are also different from ordinary mortal soldiers, using some refining materials and refining techniques, which are between ordinary soldiers and magic weapons.

On the one hand, it is very suitable for performing martial arts, on the other hand, the compatibility with mana is also very good.

However, the limitations of this type of weapon are also very huge, and if you want to talk about quality, even a first-order low-grade magic weapon is not as good.

However, because it is economical and cost-effective, it has become the consistent choice of the vast majority of low-level casual cultivators in the early stage of Qi training.

The use of martial arts to fight is also a common feature of the vast majority of low-level casual cultivation in the early stage of Qi training.

The power of spells is certainly more powerful, but this has to be mastered after mastering, and before mastering it, spells are really not as practical as martial arts.

Moreover, unless one spell is mastered to the point of perfection and supernatural mastery, or if this spell is very powerful, otherwise, if a cultivator wants to obtain a lot of combat power with spells alone, it cannot be solved by one or two spells.

It had to be a complete system of as few as four or five, or as many as seven or eight spells, capable of dealing with as many complex situations as possible.

And to achieve all this, it takes not only time, but also talent, but also financial resources.

And all of this is not something that you have time to ponder in the early stage of Qi cultivation.

To put it mildly, what can you do if you are a casual cultivator in the early stage of Qi cultivation and practice all this to perfection?

At this time, investing too much time and energy in spell cultivation is simply unwise.

Improving cultivation and doing everything possible to improve cultivation is the most important thing to do.

Therefore, martial arts that are easy to get started and can quickly form good combat effectiveness have become the most suitable choice.

But when they met Meng Zhou, they really met the nemesis of natural enemies.

The former master was originally a martial arts master, immersed in martial arts for decades, and has rich experience in martial arts.

And he himself, on the premise of inheriting all the memories of the previous master, has even cultivated the two martial arts to perfection, which is an achievement that the former master did not achieve until his death.

This made Meng Zhou's cognition of martial arts already surpass that of the grandmaster.

Through the memory of the former master and Meng Zhou's own analysis and comprehension, an interesting phenomenon was discovered.

Although most of the scattered cultivators in the early stage of Qi cultivation used various martial arts as a means to deal with the enemy, he could see that there were two distinct groups from them.

One is that you were a martial artist before you became a practitioner and had experience in practicing martial arts.

One is that if you have no experience as a martial artist, you will directly become a cultivator, and you will practice martial arts after becoming a practitioner.

The former are less numerous, and the latter is the mainstream.

Because of this difference, the same martial arts, which are almost identical, present two completely different cores.

The latter practice not so much martial arts as "spells that look like martial arts", and they are using martial arts with the same mind as using spells.

They all forgot that martial arts were meant to serve ordinary warriors from the moment they were born.

This mismatch may not have much impact on other people, and they can't even see the difference.

But in front of Meng Zhou, it was like playing a big knife in front of Guan Gongmen, and there were flaws everywhere.

To put it mildly, in the face of him, even if they throw artillery indiscriminately, the victory rate is more than that of using a strong martial art.

This can be regarded as an invisible advantage that Meng Zhou has.

In addition to the long sword and eighteen crescent-shaped blades, there were also low-grade spirit stones and dozens of taels of gold that added up to only eighteen pieces.

Other than that, there's nothing of value left.

"Hmm~~ I haven't finished my cultivation tonight."

After taking stock of the spoils, Meng Zhou suddenly remembered this and sat down cross-legged on the stone couch again.

……

In the early morning, the genius was bright.

A few loose cultivators stepped on the misty river and came to the vicinity of the small courtyard.

But when they turned a gentle arc of the river and saw the direction of the courtyard gate from the front, their figures, who were nearly 100 meters away from the courtyard, seemed to have been pressed the pause button.

Then, they all turned and left, faster than they had come, and soon disappeared into the river.

The entrance of the small courtyard.

On the left and on the right stood two long wooden sticks, and at the top of these two long sticks, two corpses were lifted high.

A head above the center of the eyebrows is all gone, as if it has been shaved negatively.

A head, tied with a rope of hair, is hung alone next to the body, and the river breeze blows and shakes gently.
