When night falls, the two parties, who are ten miles apart but regard each other as enemies, only add more firewood to the fire, so that the cold can be dispelled, and the people who sleep curled up around them can sleep more peacefully.

Even though there were branches covering all sides, the flames were still swaying in the wind, making the shadow behind Chen Xikang change randomly, like a ghost in the mouths of the people.

Glancing at the people around him who were sleeping close to him, Chen Xikang added some firewood.

Spring is born and autumn kills, and all things are the most vibrant in summer, and winter is the most dead and silent time in the four seasons of the year, everything is silent, all are brewing, in order to bloom a tree when the spring breeze rises again in the coming year, and hold up a thick green.

Feeling the quiet surroundings and seeing under the black flame, Chen Xikang's heart was particularly calm at this time.

When his eyes gradually closed, a faint aura gradually appeared on Chen Xikang, who had comprehended the technique of Dao Jiu, and as the first reuse of the technique of Dao Jiu, in the darkness, Chen Xikang, who had closed his eyes, saw farther and saw more clearly.

Dao Nine Triple Eight, Chen Xikang has only mastered the first one after staying on Dragon Tiger Mountain for several months, but even if it is only the first one, it is the technique of Dao Nine after all, and the strength is still breathtaking.

Fen clearly closed his eyes, but at this time, Chen Xikang saw Yile and Lao Jin beside him, and also saw the fading flames in front of him, and also saw the trees within dozens of meters around him that stood tall like sentinels in the middle of the night, but none of them were outside, and the scenes he saw after closing his eyes lost their original color, just showing a single black and white.

Consciousness is still active, facing what he sees now, Chen Xikang only has two words in his mind - internal scene, and it is precisely because he knows that he has touched the internal scene, so Chen Xikang at this time is completely immersed in it.

Yuan Qiuxu once said to Chen Xikang that the nine techniques of the Tao are threefold, the first is to understand the truth, the second is to understand the void, and to realize the second to the Tao, the first must be fully understood, so that the enlightened person can enter the inner scene, and then he can use the inner scene to understand the way of the void.

Looking at the black and white scene that appeared in his mind, Chen Xikang's face immediately appeared with a puzzled look after the surprise, everything was obviously so real, but when he felt it carefully, he couldn't feel anything, as if what he saw was just a projection around him.

Carefully feeling the breath of being around him, Chen Xikang, who still didn't understand, once again recalled what Tongtian Daoist had said.

Uncle Shi once said that the original intention of the Nine Techniques of the Dao Nine is to comprehend the rules, and then use the rules, but the end of the Nine Techniques of the Dao Nine is the endowment, and the so-called endowment is to let all things under the rules have their own will, and at that time, a person is a world.

Chen Xikang never doubted the words of the Tongtian Daoist, because the Tongtian Daoist not only told him this, but also personally showed Chen Xikang what it meant to be endowed with spirits and what one person and one world were.

Words and words follow the law, the surrounding things move quietly with the person who gives the Tao, and everything around the person is running around the person who gives the Tao, this is the spirit, this is the one person and one world.

The aura on his body fluctuated, and then gradually a talisman with a faint golden light appeared around Chen Xikang's body, but the number was a little scarce, but unlike the talisman condensed by Yuan Qiuxu and Tongtian Dao people, the talisman condensed by Chen Xikang now seemed to be shattered at the touch of a button.

After finally coming into contact with the interior scene, Chen Xikang was also a little excited, and after immersing himself in it, he couldn't extricate himself, until a long time passed, and only a little embers were left in the fire in front of him, he slowly opened his eyes.

It was still dark and silent all around, nothing had changed except for the almost burned fire showing the passage of time, but Chen Xikang knew that he had finally touched the threshold of the second weight of Dao Jiu.

As a spell that has been inherited for hundreds of years in Dragon and Tiger Mountain, the martial arts are not spoken of by the world, because the hundreds of years that have passed have confirmed everything, but even so, for Chen Xikang, it is only the first word of understanding, and it is not very useful.

Since birth, as the founding prince of the strong Han Dynasty and the son of Chen Tangshang, who was once a martial artist, Chen Xikang is destined to have an impossible ordinary life, even if he does not take the road of the court, there are so many high-ranking martial arts people around him, and it must be amazing to ask for immortals, and in fact, Chen Xikang did not abandon anything, but chose two roads to go together. It's just that now, he has chosen to focus on the road to the court.

However, even if he has decided to lead the fifty great lions in the west to compete with the world, the martial arts that Chen Xikang has learned are still extremely strong.

Founding Gong, Qingguang Sage, Chen Ping'an, Wang Ma and other generals, as well as the corpse picker Huo Ming, the old housekeeper Li Genglong, and even the Qi training technique of the Fulong Great Strategist in the Rishen Pavilion has also seen and simply learned, so Chen Xikang's kung fu, each of which is not weak, plus he has broken into the realm of lifting the underworld, and when he is more comfortable with his eight sword moves, his power has also been greatly improved, so if he only masters the first weight of the Dao Nine Technique, the chicken ribs are not enough, but it is just the icing on the cake.

When I was still feeling what I had just felt, the fire became vigorous after adding firewood.

The firelight reflected the still stunning but much rougher face red, and after feeling the head that had become groggy, Chen Xikang simply stopped thinking about the Dao Nine Technique, and sighed in his heart that Dao Zhen was an ethereal thing, and his mind gradually drifted back to Muping City in the west.

Because of the infection of the surrounding environment, the first thing that appeared in Chen Xikang's mind was a little boy, a little boy named Huang Huai, who asked for medicine for his mother.

Thinking of the first time he saw Huang Huai, it was also an ordinary day in the long winter, when he was young, he was already deliberately practicing himself in order to hide the eyes and ears of the world, and when he repeated the arrogant life of his son as always, a child of the same age and height as him appeared in his sight.

The wind is strong in the west on weekdays, and it is even worse in winter, so once it is winter, there are few people on the streets of Muping City, and that day it was covered in blood, with two big broadswords pinned to his waist, and a crazy person in his resolute eyes made him see it at a glance.

Huang Huai killed someone that day and killed a person with a reward for Chen Xikang, but Huang Huai at that time did not have any cultivation, just because of the hard life and some strength beyond his peers, but when he saw what appeared in Huang Huai's box, Chen Xikang did not ask, and directly gave the bounty to the child covered in blood.

Huang Huai, who deserved the bounty, was happy in his heart, but that was the first time he looked up at Chen Xikang, the little prince in Muping City.

Scene after scene, from the first time I met each other, and then fell in love, Chen Xikang almost remembered the bits and pieces of growing up with Huang Huai.

At that time, Huang Huai was still a child like himself, but Huang Huai was not a child at that time.

Thinking about it, Chen Xikang thought of his sister Chen Wanqing, who had been messing with him since he was a child, and also thought of the little girl who was curled up in the corner and eating dried steamed buns, and gradually a happy smile appeared on his face.

When the whole person was immersed in good memories, the cold feeling was fleeting on his face, and then there was a moist feeling, Chen Xikang, who was awakened, looked up and saw the spilled white through the fire in front of him.

This year's winter ushered in its first snowfall.

Stretching out his palm, looking at the snowflakes that melted in an instant, he looked up and saw that after the snow was getting heavier and heavier, Chen Xikang also sighed.

The road is difficult to walk, and after a heavy snowfall, I am afraid that it will be difficult to walk an inch.

On the other side, the night watchman changed from a hundred miles of wind to Zhuge Daming, and after seeing the goose feathers and heavy snow blowing one after another, he just enjoyed the quiet night without saying a word, and from a distance, although his front was brightly illuminated by firewood, it would make people feel that this scene was just a part of the night.

The Tao is indeed obscure and difficult to understand, and it is indeed extremely ethereal, but after Zhuge Daming, who is good at the art of Qimen and has broken through to the realm of condensation, Zhuge Daming is particularly friendly to the Tao, and at this time he feels something, and after completely relaxing himself, it seems to have become a part of the Heavenly Dao Ten Thousand Dao, and at this time he is completely integrated into the surroundings.

Chen Xikang, who got up in the middle of the night to change the night, did not sleep again, the fire burned all night, and the snow fell all night, when the next day came, under the bright light, a piece of silver was wrapped, and after the eyes were all snow-white, it seemed that the world had been washed again, especially clean.

"Lao Jin, in this weather, if we continue to walk, the assassins have not killed us, we all have to plant ourselves in this deep mountain range. ”

After stepping a few feet out of the shed and seeing that the snow had already reached the calf, Chen Xikang said helplessly that they had to find a way out of the mountain.

"We are now in the belly of the Great Ring Mountain, and there should be a village nearby, so let's find a way out. ”

Knowing the meaning of his prince's words, Lao Jin also pondered and said, but he was not familiar with this area, and now that there was snow everywhere, it was one thing to find a path.

After the decision, a few people who were very reluctant to go on the road still left a series of footprints and gradually drifted away.

There was no sun in the sky, and the three people who couldn't estimate the time just stumbled forward, but after going around for a long time, the three of them still didn't see a single house, and what was even more desperate was that it was snowing heavily in the dim sky.

was miserable, but there was nowhere to complain, Chen Xikang had to complain one after another, and even cursed Zhuge Daming and Baili Changfeng who followed behind him viciously, until he looked at a wisp of white smoke overflowing from the snow white from a distance, and he stopped complaining because of surprise.

After seeing someone in the distance, several people didn't care whether there was a road or not, and crawled towards the place where the smoke rose, and it was not only three people who saw the green smoke rising, but also more than three people who regarded it as a life-saving straw.

After their hands and feet were frozen and unconscious, the three of them finally came to the house where the green smoke rose, and after shaking off the snowflakes on their bodies, Chen Xikang knocked on the door with a respectful face.

The simple wooden door was opened with a creak, and what appeared in front of Chen Xikang and the others was a woman with a peaceful face but eyes full of vicissitudes.
