Dugu Zhishui came out of the Yuyu Building, weighed the twelve taels of gold left in his hand, and his face was full of depression. I thought that since then, I have become a rich man, and I have never thought that I will become poor again.

While lamenting that he was poor and thinking that he would have to work hard and earn more money from now on, he continued to walk north along Guangyuan Street. But this time he was much more honest, with only twelve taels of gold and some silver taels left in his pocket, he really didn't have the confidence to wander around this Guangyuan Street again.

Walking to the middle of Guangyuan Street, the surrounding buildings become more and more tall and luxurious, and the decoration is exquisite and elegant. Most of the buildings here are carved beams and painted buildings, covered with glazed tiles, which are beautiful in the daylight. In particular, it is a place called Drunken Dream Pavilion, the courtyard is extremely tall, and the building shape is the same as the palace in the imperial city.

Dugu Zhishui heard the sound of silk and bamboo flowing in the air like mountain water from a distance, and when he got closer, he saw the shape of the building and felt a burst of surprise.

And when he saw the three words Drunken Dream Pavilion, his heart suddenly shrank, as if he had been pinched hard. He stared at the three words on the plaque in a daze, as if he was recalling, and seemed to be extremely dazed and at a loss. A slightly childish but stunning face suddenly appeared in his mind, and he shook his head violently, mounted his horse and fled quickly.

Leaving Guangyuan Street, Dugu Zhishui found a small inn to live in. In the dark room, he sat on the bed against the wall, holding a meniscus blue pendant and a purple ring in his hands. The pale blue and purple glow flowed, illuminating his face uncertainly.

After his strength recovered, he would be able to use this spatial ring, and he had already turned it over the ring, in addition to some martial arts and other things, there were also a lot of pills and medicinal materials. Other than that, there is nothing else.

Although three years have passed, the past is vivid, how can we forget it? For the events of that year, Dugu Zhishui has always been reluctant to think about it, but now after thinking about it carefully, I will find that the events of that year are really confusing. True and false, virtual and real are born together, that illusion is too clever, it can make people live in illusion for more than ten years without any awareness, it is too terrifying.

Everything in the Burial Village was fake, but the things he had practiced were real, and now the rings and pendants on his hands were real. He didn't know why he was designed, he didn't know what that person's purpose was, and he didn't even know anything about the person who designed him.

Thinking that he has lived in the dreams woven by others for more than ten years, Dugu Zhishui has a fire in his heart. Now there is nothing to do anyway, so it is better to go and check what happened back then, he thought to himself.

Thinking of the Drunken Dream Pavilion, Dugu Zhishui has a deep memory. Five years ago, it was the woman named Yun Gu who made him experience the darkness of human nature for the first time, although he didn't know if this person really existed. But the Drunken Dream Pavilion was one of the few clues he had in his possession, and perhaps he could get some information from it that he couldn't have detected at the time.

Thinking of this, Dugu Zhishui smiled bitterly, that Drunken Dream Pavilion was not a place that ordinary people could enter, and today he had already experienced the consumption level of Guangyuan Street. In the next few days, you have to make good money, otherwise you can't afford to go to that kind of place at all, but you can ask someone to inquire about this Drunken Dream Pavilion first.

Although he had heard the name Drunken Dream Pavilion in the Yue family, he really didn't have the courage to face everything back then, so he didn't ask anyone about it. He really didn't know anything about this force, and he had never heard her mention it when he was with Yuetong.

Dugu Zhishui thought a lot this night, and he didn't dare to face it in the past, but this time he was finally able to calm down and think about it well. Early the next morning, he bought dry food and some field supplies and rode into the mountains. Regardless, making money is the number one priority right now.

In the next two months, Dugu Zhishui spent most of his time in the mountains, and occasionally went back to Anping City a few times to go to the Archer Hunter Guild to exchange money.

He stood at the top of the canopy, looking out over the lush forest, birds hovering over the treetops, and the females who had gone out to forage returned to their nests to feed the chicks. A strong wind blew, and the forest sea in front of him rippled, spreading from far and near, and finally the eyes were full of green ripples. Dugu Zhishui felt something, this is the trend of the wind.

He drew his sword from its sheath and practiced it on the undulating forest sea. It was already a deep mountain and old forest, and he hadn't met anyone else in a month, so he wasn't afraid of being seen. I haven't practiced swordsmanship for a few years, but now I'm really unfamiliar, and many places are a little sluggish. Now his cultivation is much higher than in the past, but this swordsmanship has fallen.

He hadn't practiced the sword for too long, Dugu Zhishui couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, he practiced the moves of the Wind Spirit Fractal Sword over and over again, even if he was sweating profusely and his clothes were soaked, he still refused to stop. It wasn't until he was exhausted, considering that the monsters in the deep mountains were too dangerous, that he still fell from the canopy.

After the rest, he tidied up a little and led the horse on. I just came back from Anping City, and I haven't gained anything yet. On the way, I met a few demon fox cubs, these little things can be caught and sold as pets, but Dugu Zhishui has his own principles, and he will not attack the cubs under normal circumstances. Unless, of course, the cub takes the initiative to attack him. After walking for about an hour, he suddenly heard a voice in the distance, and there was more than one person.

It may not be a good thing to meet people in this deep mountain and old forest, in line with the principle that more things are better than less things, Dugu Zhishui is ready to take a detour. At this moment, the roar of a fierce beast suddenly came from the distance, followed by the trembling sound of gold and iron clashing. "It should be the hunter who is hunting the demon beast", Dugu Zhishui thought to himself. Listening to the sound of the battle, it seemed that the hunters did not bargain for anything, and Dugu Zhishui shook his head while leading the horse to the side.

In the afternoon, the sun was in full bloom, and Dugu Zhishui was too lazy to continue to hurry, so he simply lay down on the trunk of the tree to rest. The two horses were tied to the tree by him, and from time to time they squeaked and gnawed at the bark, and he listened to the sound of the horses chewing, and gradually fell asleep. It wasn't until he woke up that he found that the sun had set in the west, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Previously, he was too crazy to practice swords, causing his body to be too tired, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Jumping down from the tree and continuing to walk, it was dark not long after walking, Dugu Zhishui was very annoyed, but he had to hurry to find a clearing or a sparsely wooded place. This deep mountain and old forest is easy to have a poisonous miasma at night, and the trees in the forest are shaded, and the flow of poisonous insects and beasts is not easy to detect, so it is best to choose an open place to stay at night.

The forest here is so dense that when it gets dark, you can barely see your fingers. Dugu Zhishui was a little irritable, he lit a whale oil torch, and while chopping the way in front of him with a firewood knife, he also had to pay attention to the wind and grass around him. After walking for about half an hour, just as he was about to open up a clearing on the spot, he suddenly saw a light in the distance, and in this dark environment, this light seemed so dazzling.

After hesitating for a moment, Dugu Zhishui decided to go to the front to take a look. With his current strength, ordinary hunters are not his opponents, he was reluctant to meet people before just because he didn't want to make trouble for himself, and he was not afraid to meet him.

There are several bonfires in a slightly sparse woodland, around which a group of people are sitting and munching on the roast meat of unknown creatures. The gang were all ragged and grizzled, with wounds of varying severity. But they all seem to be nothing, drinking wine and eating meat, talking and laughing at the same time, but they really have a bit of the spirit of heroes in the rivers and lakes.

A middle-aged man in a black tights took a sip of wine and laughed heartily: "Although I was a little embarrassed today, but fortunately, I finally caught this Zhu Yan, and now I can make a lot of money, haha......"

"This is hard to come by, I just heard my father mention it, and I never thought that I would have the opportunity to see and capture a cub alive today. A woman stroked the hair that was scattered across her forehead and smiled.

A short-haired young man took a sip of wine, "Since Sister Ah Yan came, our luck has been good, Sister Ah Yan is the lucky star of our brothers, don't you say?"

The woman shook her head helplessly, and several other men followed suit.

This is true. ”

"That's right, with Ah Yan here, we will definitely be able to develop in the future, and maybe the brothers will be able to marry a few beautiful girls when the time comes. ”

A shirtless sturdy man slapped his thigh and shouted: "Hey, what girl can be as beautiful as our Ah Yan, if you want me to say, if you can marry Ah Yan in the future, this is the real ability." ”

The woman ate meat for herself and ignored him.

A young man in a leather coat slapped the big man on the back, and the big man sighed, "Lin Zhi, you kid, you are really ruthless, I know that you have our Ayan sister in your heart, my brother doesn't want to create a ...... for you."

Before the big man finished speaking, his mouth was blocked by a large piece of meat, and he could only stare at the young man who was like no one else.

The others laughed, and the leather-clad youth raised his head and glanced at the woman opposite, and found that she was looking at him, and hurriedly lowered his head to nibble on the meat.

While a few people were talking and laughing, there was suddenly a sound of rustling footsteps from the surrounding grass and trees. The middle-aged man in black suddenly had a look in his eyes, and turned his head and shouted, "Who!"

The rest of the people also immediately became vigilant and picked up the weapons around them one after another.

Dugu Zhishui brushed aside the last weed in front of him and walked out of the forest, and saw a group of people sitting in the open space who were a little nervous, and was suddenly surprised, it turned out to be the hunter team he had met before.

The woman named Ah Yan let go of the hilt of the sword in her hand and said strangely, "Why are you?"

Dugu Zhishui smiled, "Why can't it be me, I accidentally slept through the time today, saw the light here, and thought about coming to a place to spend the night, but I didn't expect it to be you." ”

"It turned out to be you, brother, we were drinking, let's just come over together to be lively......" Lin Zhi and the backless man hurriedly threw down the weapons in their hands, and when they got up, they were about to greet Dugu Zhishui.

"He's?" a short-haired young man looked at the middle-aged leader suspiciously.

Ah Yan pushed him and said with a smile: "It's this little brother who saved your life, why don't you go and thank others." ”

"Oh, oh...... It turned out to be him......" The young man hurriedly got up and greeted Shangdugu Zhishui, he was the hunter who was injured by the Gu Eagle that day - Liu Qiang.

Dugu Zhishui was pressed by several hunters around the bonfire, and he had to be dragged to drink, but Dugu Zhishui was too embarrassed to refuse the hospitality of others, so he had to take a sip. As a result, after a sip of wine, Dugu Zhishui only felt that his stomach was tumbling over, as if he had swallowed hot oil, he choked and coughed a few times, and his white face was red like a monkey's buttocks.

Several hunters saw him like this, and immediately burst into laughter, Ah Yan didn't seem to expect that he was still a chick, and couldn't help but purse his lips and chuckle.

"I didn't expect you to be a chick, little brother...... It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, once it is born, two times it is cooked, and three times it is unstoppable, come on, keep drinking!"

The backless man patted Dugu Zhishui on the shoulder with his big hand, and handed over a bowl of wine, Dugu Zhishui shook his head, but at this time, Liu Qiang, Lin Zhi, Sun Xiaofeng and others also followed suit.

"Don't be afraid, brother, drink!"

"If it's a man, don't be cowardly, drink!"

Dugu Zhishui only felt dizzy, and after several people coaxed him like this, he took the wine bowl without thinking about it, and drank it in one gulp.

"Good!

"Brother, you are a man!

This is the first time in Dugu Zhishui's life that he has touched wine, but he drank until he was dark and unconscious. However, he actually drank less than three bowls......
