Chapter XVII: Receiving the Ceremony, Drawing the Sword, and Departing

Early the next morning.

Ji Ge lay on the hammock outside the door, his hands on his head, looking at the fallen leaves on the treetops, stunned, and sleepless all night.

"Squeak. The door of the ear room was opened from the inside, and Wen Zhili, dressed in black, walked out and stretched out.

Wen Zhili saw Ji Ge who jumped off the hammock, looked at the dark circles on his eyes, and asked crisply, "Didn't sleep all night?"

Ji Ge nodded, wiped his tired face, yawned, and walked to the well in the courtyard to get a bucket of water to freshen up his face.

The well water in late autumn is soaked with deep coolness.

Scribbled wiped the delicate and handsome face, Ji Ge glanced at the empty house, Shi Xiu and his wife had already gone to the wall with Shi Xiaohu.

"Let's go. "Ji Ge is carrying a sword box, but there is only one demon in the sword box at this time.

The agarwood is still planted in the original land.

When Wen Zhili returned to Shi's house alone, it was still Shi Xiu who carried the unconscious Ji Ge back, but he really couldn't pull out the agarwood inserted between Ji Ge's legs.

That agarwood is like taking root on the earth, even if the stone embroidery later exerts the majestic spiritual power that runs out of the condensing realm, it is also a way to pull out the slightest.

So I let the sword stick there.

I can't pull it out myself, let alone those juniors in the cottage.

After drinking and eating that night, he had already wiped the tears off his face, so he told Ji Ge about it in the courtyard, and Ji Ge, who was a little drunk, just waved his hand and said that it was okay.

The agarwood before was going to really make him Ji Ge not good, and the clay man still had three points of fire, not to mention his Ji Ge, so Ji Ge was not in a hurry to get the agarwood back after the meal, he planned to dry it overnight first, so that it could reflect and reflect.

Ji Ge paced along the cobblestone path that ran along the courtyard towards the courtyard gate, his feet covered with the blood of the bastard demon beast that had not yet had time to be cleaned.

Wen Zhili looked at the young man in front of him who had changed into a green shirt at some point, as if his shoulders were not crushed by the entanglements and grievances of thousands of years ago, and the entrustment of the stone embroidery on the dinner table.

As soon as she thought of this, she realized that it was also good to have Xiong's vision, just as he had chosen to take himself with him instead of abandoning him on the shores of the Stygian Sea a thousand years ago.

Immediately, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and her eyebrows were full.

The smile melted away from the frost that had frozen on the dead grass that had been yellowing since late autumn on the side of the cobblestone road.

The grass and vines flow into the soil and mud.

Although it is not the spring rain that is as expensive as oil in March in the poem, the frost and snow in late autumn are also worthy of joy.

It's just this laugh, this scene, Ji Ge, who walked in front of him in a green shirt and looked full of books, didn't see it.

Ji Ge and Wen Zhili walked together on the streets that traversed the north and south of the cottage.

After a day's cleaning yesterday, each family claimed the corpses of their relatives who died tragically under the minions of the demon beasts, but there were still a family of three or even three generations in the same house The door was washed by the beast tide that broke into the cottage that night.

The child who died in Wen Zhili's arms was like this.

It's just that the corpses of those people were also brought back by the neighbors, as for where they were buried, Shi Xiu didn't say last night, and Ji Ge didn't ask.

In the vast world, in the desolate ancient land, is there still less such thing that happens to the innocent people of the human race?

After only one day, the smell of blood on the street was much lighter than that night, if it weren't for the houses being rebuilt on the street, the ruins being cleared, who would have thought that a cottage would become completely devastated overnight, and hundreds of people would have returned to the west.

Ji Ge walked slowly on the long street, and there will be ruins everywhere

The miserable expression of the human race was in full view, and he pursed his lips.

I don't know who in the crowd shouted "they are coming", so all the clansmen, women and children, young and strong, all put down their work, turned their heads to look out of the courtyard of the Shi family's house, one in front of the other and one behind the other on the long street, one green and one black.

Immediately, they slowly knelt down and dispersed backwards like a tide, and the black crowd bowed silently to the ground.

They didn't even know what the two young men in front of them were called or where they came from, but it was enough to know that they were the ones who saved themselves from fire and water in the beast tide disaster the night before.

Wen Zhili saw that the woman she had saved that night was also in the crowd, but she was thin and looked depressed.

Ji Ge didn't hide, and he accepted their worship with nowhere to retreat, but his expression was a little gloomy between his eyebrows.

He bowed respectfully to the clansmen who knelt on the ground on both sides of the long street, and said in a deep voice: "Ji Ge deserves it. ”

After many years, when the deputy general next to Ji Ge asked why he chose to be ordered to command the three armies to resist the heavy pressure of the ghost clan and the demon clan, Ji Ge, who was a little more resolute and immature on his face at that time, pursed his lips and did not answer.

He will not forget the kowtow and thank you when he just landed on the land of this desolate ancient land, in the eyes of the general trend of the world later, an insignificant cottage human race.

At this time, Ji Ge slowly straightened up, and saw that the people on both sides of the long street did not have the slightest intention of standing up, so he and Wen Zhili left the long street called "Zhixi Zhigui" quickly.

After not seeing Ji Ge and Wen Zhili for a long time, the people on both sides of the long street stood up again and resumed their work.

Ji Ge and Wen Zhili came to the place where they had fought with the giant python the night before, and the body of the giant python had already been peeled off by Wen Zhili, leaving only the huge skeleton piled up on the ground.

As for the two corpses of the mixed rhino and the white ape, Wen Zhili personally threw their flesh and blood fragments around the cottage to deter the beasts in the mountains and forests.

Ji Ge walked to the place where he fainted and fell to the ground, and found that the agarwood was really inserted on the ground, but there were many footprints around, and someone must have tried it secretly without believing in evil.

At this time, Ji Ge had just noticed that there were already people slowly gathering around him and Wen Zhili, and most of them looked like young men who were repairing the wall.

Shi Xiu squeezed in from outside the crowd, looked at Ji Ge with an unnatural expression, and said frankly: "These little rabbit cubs don't believe that you can pull out this sword, so they are so curious to come around and take a look." ”

Ji Ge nodded and smiled slightly, but he didn't let the stone embroidery disperse them.

Ji Ge pointed to the pile of skeletons not far away and said: "The martial arts luck carried by that demon beast has been scattered in this green land because of his death, of course, because this is the place where he died, so most of the martial arts luck will be condensed here, so if I guess correctly, there should be a few good quenching seedlings in the next few years." ”

"At that time, if you cultivate and temper a little, you won't have to work so hard. ”

This stone embroidery, which has always been rigorous in front of everyone on weekdays, rubbed his hands at this time, not knowing what to do.

Ji Ge took out the white ape's demon pill from the jade Sumeru mustard seeds, put it in the palm of Shi Xiu's hand, and said softly: "I will give Xiaohu the demon pill of the rhino, after all, I have eaten his two mountain fruits, which can be regarded as a courtesy, and that demon pill will also be beneficial to Xiaohu's future cultivation." ”

"As for this white ape's demon pill, I will give it to you, I will give you two meals of wine and give you a demon pill, no matter how you think about it, I earned it. I think you, the owner of the Condensation Realm, should be an adult, and there are a lot of people who can take advantage of this kid for me. ”

Shi Xiu's hand held the palm-sized bead with a milky white halo, and his expression was complicated.

As a native of the mountains, he naturally knew the preciousness of the bead in his hand, which was the demon pill of the Demon Beast of the Condensing God Realm.

If you absorb the essence of the demon pill, I'm afraid that the ethereal infant realm for you will no longer be as extravagant as before.

I'm afraid that the young man in front of him doesn't know the preciousness of this demon pill that can be met but not sought.

Shi Xiu was about to refuse, but Wen Zhili, who was taking in his expression on the side, had already taken the lead and said, "There is no reason to take back what he sent out, so you should accept it, the master of Shizhai." ”

"Even if you don't need to think about it, Xiaohu will be able to use it in the future. ”

"Big brother, are you leaving?" Shi Xiaohu, who squeezed into the crowd at some point, tugged at Ji Ge's sleeve and looked up and asked.

Ji Ge touched his head and said with a smile: "You have to practice hard, and take over the burden from your father in the future, this cottage still needs you." ”

Shi Xiaohu nodded solemnly and winked at Ji Ge.

The big watery eyes are not only innocent of a child, but also a little inexplicable.

Then Ji Ge looked at the stone embroidery and said solemnly: "I will definitely bring that sentence, and the world will definitely become better and better in the future, this is not only what you want to see, but also what that person wants to see." ”

Shi Xiu scratched his head, and said with a somewhat flustered expression: "Ji Gongzi, last night was all my drunken nonsense, and it shouldn't be true." ”

"And..."Shi Xiu paused, and said in a somewhat choked voice: "I can't cause a good person like you to lose your life because of my drunken nonsense." ”

"Ji Gongzi, on this continent, the most important thing is to save your life. ”

Ji Ge nodded when he heard this, but then shook his head without a trace.

Wen Zhili glanced at the crowd around him, his expression was indifferent, and he said in a cold voice: "In this world, what is lacking is people like you, the master of Shizhai, I hope that there can be more in the village in the future, just a little more." ”

After speaking, his figure rose from the ground and turned into a long rainbow to break through the sea of clouds.

Seeing this, Ji Ge smiled slightly, took a step back, and arched his hand and said, "Let's go." ”

Then he walked up to the agarwood sword and flicked his fingers lightly.

Immediately, those young and strong disciples who came around and did not believe in evil saw Ji Ge's right hand holding on the hilt of the sword, and there was a clanging sound from the sword body that had not moved for a long time.

Cracks in the ground like cobwebs spread out in all directions.

The crowd that had gathered to the front retreated one after another.

Then Ji Ge exerted a slight force, intending to lift the agarwood with the golden branch physique that was exerted to the extreme.

However, with a little spiritual power, the agarwood, which originally required his own great strength to wield, was easily pulled out of the ground by him.

Ji Ge slightly concealed the look of surprise in his eyes, and then threw the agarwood upward.

A golden sword qi cut through the sea of clouds churning above the cottage from the bottom up.

Ji Ge's body squatted slightly, and then suddenly rose from the ground, and the agarwood that he threw high into the air fell into the sword box behind him just right.

The golden sword qi in the sky also gathered in the sword box.

Immediately, the figure in the green shirt disappeared into the sea of clouds, and there was no trace of it.

"What a role model for my generation. Someone in the crowd cheered loudly.

"What's the matter, isn't this the time you said before that people are grizzled and embarrassed?!" someone tapped him on the shoulder and asked jokingly.

The young man scratched his head, waved his hand again and again and denied, and said, "No, no, it was the real romance of our eyes and ignorance before." ”
