Liu Yu invited Ai Yuanmu back to the room and asked Xiaoguo to prepare wine and food. Eight years ago, after Ai Yuanmu was expelled from Huang Shengzong, the two lost contact, and today they finally met, so they naturally had to get together and have a few drinks.

The two of them were a little restrained at first, but after a few glasses of wine, they started talking. talked about the experiences of the two in the past eight years, and sighed about the impermanence of fate. Liu Yu naturally had nothing to say, and before coming to Yannan City, he had been staying in Huangsheng Mountain.

Ai Yuanmu's experience over the years is a little sad, after being expelled from Huang Shengzong, Ai Yuanmu first went back to his hometown and cultivated for a year. After taking care of the affairs of the family, he went out to look for immortals, Ai Yuanmu did not give up his desire to seek the Tao.

Years of aimless wandering were extremely arduous and often dangerous. The terrifying scar on Ai Yuanmu's face was left by a knife when he was fighting with someone. At that time, the form was very thrilling, if the knife went a little deeper, Ai Yuanmu's life would be explained.

Liu Yu looked at the centipede-like scar covering Ai Yuanmu's face, and could imagine how dangerous it was at that time, and couldn't help but feel heartache for Ai Yuanmu.

"Later, Brother Wei came to Gaoyang City by chance, and it happened that the sect was recruiting Heavenly Master, so Brother Wei went to sign up. Zongmen Nian is in the special status of a brother, so he will be hired first. It has been more than two years since he was assigned to Pinghu County as a Heavenly Master. Ai Yuanmu then narrated.

"Brother Ai, how far is Pinghu County from here?" Liu Yu asked, this Pinghu County is definitely not under the jurisdiction of Yannan City.

"Pinghu County is under the jurisdiction of Fengshan City, and it is about ten days away from Yannan City, which is not too far. Ai Yi took a sip of wine and replied.

"Last time, Brother Yu slashed demons, but it was very beautiful, and after hearing about it, I learned that you were in Yannan City, so close, I always wanted to come to you, but I was delayed by things. Ai Yuanmu continued.

In fact, if there was no important matter and no way to come to Liu Yu for help, Ai Yuanmu would never come to see Liu Yu, he didn't want Liu Yu to see his embarrassed appearance now.

"Big brother, you can send someone to write to me, the little brother has nothing to do on weekdays, you can go to Pinghu County to find the eldest brother!" Liu Yu said regretfully, he had known that Ai Yuanmu was so close, and he had already looked for it.

"For my brother, I forgot about it for a while. Ai Yuanmu replied embarrassedly, and could only shirk and say that he didn't expect it.

"This time I came for my brother, I asked Brother Yu for help. Ai Yuanmu decided to explain his intentions.

"Brother Ai, what's the matter?" Liu Yu said curiously.

One day, the villagers of Daniu Village in Pinghu County came to ask for help, saying that more than 10 people had disappeared in the village in a row, and the whole village was panicked. The more than a dozen people who disappeared were all hunters in the village, and they had not returned for half a month after entering the mountain.

The village also lost several ploughing cattle, after the villagers woke up one night, only a puddle of blood was left in the cowshed, the cattle were gone, some villagers heard the painful cries of ploughing cattle at night, and there were ploughing cattle missing for several days. This frightened the people in the village, thinking that there were monsters to cause trouble, and hurriedly sent someone to Pinghu County to report to the official.

Ai Yuanmu, as the Heavenly Master of Pinghu County, quickly rushed to Daniu Village with a catcher. Daniu Village is a relatively large village, with more than 200 households, located at the foot of the mountain, and the villagers mainly rely on hunting and farming for their livelihood.

There is a big mountain in front of the village, which is shaped like a yellow cow, and is called the big cow mountain by the villagers. The mountains are densely wooded, overgrown with wild grasses, and there are many wild meats, and the villagers go into the mountains to hunt, and there are often big harvests.

After asking many villagers in the village, Ai Yuanmu thought in his heart that there might be zombies in the mountains. This zombie would come to the village every once in a while at night to hunt and kill the cattle. Ai Yuanmu decided to wait for the rabbit and ambush the zombie in the village at night.

At night in the village, there was an old ox tied under the old tree, and Ai Yuanmu and a group of catchers hid in the grove not far away. The sky is not beautiful, there is no moon in the night sky, the night is very thick, you can't see anything clearly a few steps away, and there is only the sound of insects chirping all around.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "sand, sand", Ai Yuanmu's heart jumped, and the secret voice came, so that the catchers were ready. Ai Yuanmu asked the catchers in advance to prepare a few large nets, which were made of sturdy hemp rope.

In the dark night, two red dots appeared, from far to near, getting brighter and brighter, and they were fist-sized eyes, accompanied by the sound of heavy breathing. The old ox circled uneasily around the tree, and made a rapid "moo" sound from his mouth.

Ai Yuanmu became more and more uneasy in his heart, the situation was not quite right. The thing that came was not a zombie, and Ai Yuanmu realized that he had guessed wrong. The thing that approached in the darkness was very large, and its eyes were blood-red, which made people panic cautiously.

The old scalper was thrown to the ground with a "bang", kicking on all fours, making a fierce sound. Although I don't know what it is, I can only choose to make a move.

Ai Yuanmu rushed out, the True Flame Knife in his hand exploded into a flame, and the catchers also ran over with the big net. As Ai Yuanmu approached, the huge figure in the darkness slowly became clear. A giant wolf bigger than a cow bit the neck of the old scalper with a huge mouth, and pressed its body against the old ox.

The giant wolf roared towards Ai Yuanmu, and the shaking mountains and forests echoed.

"Retreat" Ai Yuanmu shouted, telling the approaching catchers to quickly retreat, this giant wolf is not something they can deal with. Ai Yuanmu also stopped, and looked at the giant wolf not far away, not daring to move, the sense of oppression given to him by the giant wolf was too strong and very dangerous.

The giant wolf slowly stood up and walked towards the mountain with the old ox in his mouth. Walking slowly, he looked back at Ai Yuanmu from time to time, very vigilant.

"You go back first, and I'll go and see. Ai Yuanmu instructed the approaching catcher.

"Go back and don't talk nonsense, remember. After thinking about it, he instructed again. Armed with his hands, he chased after the giant wolf in the direction where the giant wolf had disappeared.

Soon after, Ai Yuanmu kept up with the giant wolf from a distance, the giant wolf was very fast, but because he was moving forward with the old ox in his mouth, he sometimes stopped to rest for a while.

Ai Yuanmu didn't know whether he wanted to do it or not, and he was a little hesitant. The terrifying giant wolf in front of him must be a spirit beast, I don't know what breed it is, the pressure on him is too great, and I don't know if I can fight it.

Spirit beasts can be treasured all over their bodies, and their flesh and blood can be cooked and eaten, which can greatly promote cultivation. Fur and teeth are the materials used to make magic weapons, and they can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones when they are sold in the market.

Ai Yuanmu has three miscellaneous spirit roots, poor qualifications, and the clansmen are just ordinary secular businessmen, so they don't help him. There is an extreme lack of resources for cultivating immortals, and so far the cultivation has only reached the fourth level of Qi cultivation, and the road to cultivation is very bumpy. There is no resources in hand, and cultivation has stopped.

The situation of being ousted from Huang Shengzong back then is still vivid, and it often appears in front of him, urging Ai Yuanmu every moment to redouble his efforts to cultivate, and not to give up.

Ai Yuanmu's heart was ruthless, and he quickly chased forward with his knife, the road of cultivation was already full of danger, and in his current situation, if he didn't seize the opportunity and give it a go, how could there be any hope of building a foundation.
