At night, Li Zijin tossed and turned, never able to sleep, so he slowly got up.

Seeing that the little junior sister was sleeping soundly, he walked slowly to the outside of the house.

The boy tiptoed around, holding the candle in one hand and closing the door with the other.

Fortunately, although the door of this room is in disrepair, the creaking sound is not loud, even if it is a teenager who is close at hand, it is like the sound of a mosquito flying by in his ears.

He stood at the door again and waited, but did not hear any movement inside, and made sure that he had not woken up the little junior sister, so he carefully held the candle and left the room.

Walking around the corner in the backyard, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.

Calculated carefully, I don't know if it is one watch or several watches at this moment, the dark clouds in the sky cover the moon, and there are only starlight, which is not enough to illuminate the road ahead.

Last night, after Li Zijin and the little junior sister followed Xing Shen and Zhuang Die to stay in Xing's mansion, the blind Taoist Xing Shen went back to the room without saying a word.

Zhuang Die, who is still Xing Shen's maidservant, patiently explained some of the "rules" of the house to Li Zijin and Hong Shao.

One of them is that you can't go to the back mountain.

Li Zijin didn't ask much, knowing that the immortals on the mountain, whether they were cultivating caves or mansions in the world, had their own rules.

This matter is like "following the customs of the locals", and you only need to obey the instructions of the master's family and respect the rules of others.

Not to mention, the young man still has something to ask for on this trip, and he has to rely on the blind Taoist Xing Shen to find a secret realm of mountains and rivers for himself and go to seek the quenching sword stone.

Walking in brocade at night, holding candles in hand, slowly walking through the promenade to the water pavilion by the pond.

Li Zijin put the candle on the table, sat down next to it, and swept his eyes over the carp and water flowers in the pool, and landed directly on the opposite side of the pool.

I heard that the courtyard on the opposite side of the pond is the back mountain.

What's out there?

It was just such an "unkind" thought that had just risen in his heart, and Li Zijin immediately shook his head and didn't let himself think about it.

He turned around and turned to face the corridor on the other side.

The night is quiet, sitting alone in the pond water pavilion, and staring at the promenade all the time, it can't help but be a little creepy.

In the daytime, no matter how strange things are, they feel ordinary and unremarkable.

But at night, even if it is something ordinary, even if it is still quiet and motionless, if one looks at it, one will feel that it looks a little like a person, or something.

Li Zijin thinks that he is not small, and when he lived in a huge county guard mansion since he was a child, he dared to go out to the toilet alone in the middle of the night.

Even when he and Li Huairen, Lu Zhixing, and the three of them "broke through" the mountains and forests behind Taiping County, they walked in front alone, and the first two playmates couldn't even see his back.

At that time, he listened to the old men and women in the city who liked to sit under the big trees and enjoy the shade, telling some strange stories of power and confusion.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it, it's weird.

I never thought that I would live in this ordinary Xing Mansion today, and take a walk in the middle of the night, but I was stunned to see a vest cold for Li Zijin.

Standing at the end of the corridor is a daffodil that I have seen in the daytime?

Suddenly, a night breeze blew, tossing the boy's hair and covering his eyes slightly.

The candle flame on the table "bent over" with the wind, and it was not extinguished.

At this moment, the "daffodils" at the end of the corridor, which were less than ten feet away from the boy, seemed to be swaying from side to side.

Li Zijin suddenly got up, had already drawn his sword out of the sheath, and shouted: "Who?"

No one answered.

He still doesn't believe it, is there really such an evil sect?

The young man held his breath and condensed, lifted a mouthful of martial arts true qi, and then mobilized the aura in the sea of consciousness to operate in his own cave hole.

The next moment, the figure of the brocade-clothed young swordsman was really like a ghost, and he disappeared into the pavilion and water pavilion in the blink of an eye.

As if a gust of wind was blowing, Li Zijin had already appeared at the end of the corridor with his sword in front of him.

The young man was slightly stunned, then removed the sword around the man's neck and asked, "Miss Zhuang Die, why are you?"

The maidservant Zhuang Die's face was pale, but more like a frightened person, she carried a night lantern in her hand, but at the moment the wick inside was extinguished.

Zhuang Die stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, then raised his head to look at the young swordsman, and said: "Just now, I saw someone carrying candles to the back mountain through the window, and I guessed that Li Gongzi couldn't find the thatched house at night, so I hurriedly dressed and came here, wanting to remind Gongzi not to go to the back mountain."

The slave had just walked around the corner when he was ······ A gust of wind blew and almost blew out the lantern in my hand, so I quickly squatted on the ground and shielded the lantern from the wind with my palm. Who thought that the flame was still blown out, and when I looked up again, Childe had already appeared in front of me. ”

Li Zijin frowned slightly, and asked again: "Then who I asked just now, why don't you want me?"

Zhuang Die sighed, "Huh?", and asked rhetorically, "Did Childe call me just now?"

Li Zijin nodded, "Hmm." ”

Zhuang Die thought about it, and after thinking about it, he said: "Maybe Fang was in a hurry, and the slave didn't notice it." ”

The young man put his sword into its sheath and asked no more questions.

This maid Zhuang Die's answer is full of flaws.

However, if you really want to grasp a flaw and keep asking questions, the other party can continue to prevaricate with ambiguous answers.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if she has been standing around the corner just now, she can use "what the master ordered" to gag her mouth.

But none of this is important, what matters is, why is this girl pretending to be a ghost here in the middle of the night?

Is it just to keep an eye on yourself, not to let yourself cross the opposite courtyard and go to the back mountain?

Li Zijin had countless questions in his heart, but on the surface, he smiled quietly: "I was really scared and confused, I thought it was something unclean dangling here, thinking that if it was really that ghostly ghost, I would come for Tianxingdao on the spot." I never thought it was Miss Zhuang Die, but I was frightened, I'm really sorry. ”

After speaking, Li Zijin also specially bowed to Zhuang Die, his eyes full of apologies.

The latter hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Li Gongzi is polite." ”

At this time, Zhuang Die asked the young man in turn: "I don't know Gongzi Li, why did he come here alone in the middle of the night?"

He was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself whether this was a return gift from the host to the guest after the failure of the "anti-guest-oriented"?

However, Li Zijin's heart was already bright, so he naturally told the truth: "Don't tell the girl, I have some recognition of the bed under it, I am new to it, I am not very used to sleeping, tossing and turning, it is difficult to sleep, so I want to come out to blow the wind, and I hope to sleep better when I go back." As a result, when she sat down in the water pavilion, she looked at this side of the corridor, something was wrong, and then the girl knew what happened later. ”

Zhuang Die looked a little unresponsive, and at the pause of the young man's every sentence, he didn't think too much and guess, but looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if it didn't matter what the person said.

Li Zijin was stunned, and his gaze stayed on the maid's jaw, which seemed to be not in harmony with other places?

Before he could see it clearly, Zhuang Die let out an "oops", then squatted down, buried his head, and touched his ankles with both hands.

"Miss Zhuang Die, what's wrong?" Li Zijin squatted down and glanced at the girl's ankle.

She shook her head and said, "Xu just hit his foot." ”

I just arrived, and now I shout?

Li Zijin was stunned on the spot, could this lying ability be a little too clumsy? Can't he make up a more decent lie?

The boy narrowed his eyes.

When the servant girl raised her head again, her lower jaw was perfectly connected to the whole face.

Seamless.

"Since Miss Zhuang Die has reached her feet, it seems that it is inconvenient to move, why don't I send the girl back to rest?" Li Zijin asked tentatively.

She smiled and said, "There is Mr. Lao." ”

The young swordsman in brocade gently helped the maid up, and the two slowly walked through the corridor.

Walking through the corridor, past the backyard, and coming to the front yard, the young man sent Zhuang Die back to the room, stood outside the door, and did not go in.

Li Zijin said: "It is inconvenient to enter your boudoir, Miss Zhuang Die is careful herself." ”

The maid turned around, gave Li Zijin a blessing, thanked him, closed the door, and in the light of the candle in the hand of the young man outside the door, the figure in the room limped to the bed, and then lay on it, motionless.

Li Zijin turned to leave.

Quite a bit of leisurely strolling, slowly from the front yard back to the backyard, with the corner of his eye slanted glance at the side of the corridor, but did not move, just gently pushed open the door, back into the house.

There are two beds in the house, and the little sister is still asleep.

He returned to his bed, took off the Cuiqu sword, blew out the candle, and immediately lay down, gently closing his eyes, also motionless.

Even breathing slowed down.

After a stick of incense.

Li Zijin turned over and got up, put the Cuiqu sword behind his back again, in order to be complete, he didn't even wear cloth shoes, walked out of the room barefoot, and didn't even have time to close the door, and climbed to the roof.

Stepping on the bricks and tiles, the young man turned the willow body method, his feet were silent, the speed was fast, and he flew on the top of the Xingfu promenade.

The moonlight reflected two figures.

In a long corridor, the running does not stop.

On a long corridor, there was silence.

Both of them had the same goal, to go behind the "daffodil" at the corner of the corridor.

Li Zijin arrived first, but he didn't go straight down.

He crouched down slightly, holding his breath.

The man in the corridor under him was a tough guy to deal with.

But one thing is for sure, she is definitely not Zhuang Die!

After sending the maidservant Zhuang Die, who pretended to be a broken foot, back to the room, the reason why Li Zijin left there slowly was because he wanted to observe the details all the way.

After Li Zijin returned to the room, the moment he closed the door, a small gap was left, and he glimpsed that the maidservant Zhuang Die, who was "stumped", was able to fly the eaves and walk the wall, and her oblique shadow was reflected in the moonlight, reflecting on the backyard wall.

So the boy did his job, pretended to go back to bed, blew out the candles, and lay down and pretended to be asleep.

Even his own breathing was extremely slow, so that it seemed as if he was asleep, and he knew that the man standing in the doorway could hear his breathing.

Even if he had thought so thoughtfully, he didn't expect that the person outside the door was still cautious enough to stand outside and guard a whole stick of incense.

After making sure that Li Zijin was "asleep" with a stick of incense, he began to set off to the corner of the corridor.

What's the secret?

In the moonlight, the young man's eyes were like torches, staring at the back of the "Zhuang Butterfly" under the corridor.

"Zhuang Die" looked around left and right, and after confirming that no one was coming, he pinched the trick with his fingertips, and then the human-height daffodil turned into a corpse in an instant.

Li Zijin's pupils dilated, and he looked at the corpse on the ground in disbelief.

In the moonlight, two Zhuang butterflies.

One alive, one dead.

One fake, one real.

Obviously, the naked corpse of the girl on the ground, who even had her face torn off, is the real Zhuang Die.

So, just when he caught a glimpse of the "Zhuang Die" jaw, the blood-clot-like thing was the flaw left by the fact that he had torn off the skin from Zhuang Die's face in a hurry and didn't have time to clean up the blood stains?

Who was that man, and why did he kill a handmaid and pretend to be her?

Seeing that the fake Zhuang Die resisted the corpse of the real Zhuang Die, and was about to go outside the Xing Mansion, Li Zijin hesitated.

If you let the man go, there will be no proof of his death.

can make a rash move, I don't know how many chances I can have against the fake Zhuang Die.

Watching the man gradually walk away, the young man gritted his teeth, totoed the ground, and took out a paper figure from his arms.

"It's okay, do you remember the fire method that Master Chai taught you?" Li Zijin said hurriedly.

The paper man nodded without incident: "That's nature." ”

Li Zijin said: "Then bother you and set fire to the room for me, but don't hurt the people inside, just set the house on fire and get his attention." ”

He pointed to the front yard, the room of the blind Taoist Xing Shen and said.

"After doing this, go back to the room and close the door, take care of Hong Shao for me, don't let her run around. Li Zijin said again.

After saying this, without waiting for the paper man to respond, the young man had already turned the willow body method, jumped off the top of the corridor, dragonflies and water, tread on the pond, climbed over the high courtyard wall, and chased the real and false Zhuang Butterfly.

Although he complained about nothing, he was not ambiguous in his hands, and immediately did what Li Zijin said.

When he landed outside the door of the blind old man's room, a fire had just been condensed between his fingers, and before the house could be burned, Xing Shen in the house walked out of the room scolding, "looking" at the pale paper man on the ground, stunned, and asked: "Little guy, the old man has no grievances with you, why don't you burn my house?" Tell me quickly, who is the master of your family?"

————

At the other end, Li Zijin was holding a bamboo basket with many yellow paper talismans in it.

The young man went all the way, while chasing the fake Zhuang Die who ran away before him, and at the same time tore up those yellow paper talismans, as a "line", wanting to guide Xing Shen's seniors.

Although he knew that Xing Shen was really blind, Xing Shen must have some kind of ability to make himself "visible".

Li Zijin knew that he was most likely not the opponent of the fake Zhuang Die, but he didn't want the Zhuang Die girl to die in vain, so he could only chase him.

The young man who turned the willow body method quickly chased him to a bamboo forest, surrounded by green bamboo, and the fake Zhuang butterfly disappeared here.

But her speed is not as fast as herself, so she must not have run far, most likely because she used a trick.

Will it ······ The fake Zhuang butterfly turned into a green bamboo and hid in the bamboo forest?

The young man in brocade was barefoot, took off the Cuiqu sword, there was no doubt that he drew the sword out of the sheath as soon as possible, and did not dare to slack off.

He lightly stepped on the pile of bamboo leaves on the ground, making a crisp rustling sound, which was particularly harsh and eerie in the silent night.

After the quenching of the sword stone quenching the Cuiqu sword, the sword body seemed to be dripping under the moonlight, the young man raised the sword, while looking at the road ahead, while observing behind himself with the clear Cuiqu sword body as clear as a mirror.

A strong wind blew.

The entire bamboo forest was slightly tilted by the gust of wind, and the "giggle" laughter echoed in the bamboo forest.

Li Zijin kept his mind and did not let himself be confused by the laughter.

Trapped in the bamboo forest, it is like being in a chaotic array, and if you mess up the direction, you will lose your sense of proportion and mind.

In this way, death is not far away.

"If you don't live, you have to go to death, why bother?"

A woman's voice startled from behind Li Zijin.

Through the body of the Cuiqu sword, Li Zijin caught a glimpse of a figure hurrying from behind.

The next moment, he turned around suddenly, and a drop of gold condensed from the tip of his sword, and he raised his hand to face the enemy with his sword.

The fake Zhuang Die was also holding a long sword, and the moment the two swords clashed, the long sword in the woman's hand burst out with a brighter and more dazzling sword light, and a sword slashed the Cuiqu sword from the young man's hand.

In just this short period of time, Li Zijin can already determine the other party's realm.

Elixir.

At least, they are all Jindan Realm.

Because what she has in her hands is the true sword qi.

And it may be more powerful than the Jindan Sword Immortal Su Hancai, who fought with him at the beginning.

The fake Zhuang Die glanced at the turquoise long sword that fell to the ground, and the brocade-clothed young man who took a few steps back, and sneered: "Just Peiyuan Realm sword cultivator, you dare to show off your sword qi in front of me?

Li Zijin's face was solemn, he had previously let the sword mangs and sword qi face to face, and the impact on his arm was so great that his left hand was still trembling until now.

At the moment of life and death, the young man still asked, "Who are you and why did you kill Miss Zhuang Die?"

The woman asked, "What does it have to do with you?"

She continued: "Originally, I slept all night and didn't have anything, but you had to hang out in the middle of the night, and you still liked to be curious, and you liked to ask questions, so you had to come out to chase me after you had already returned to the room." I've already given you a chance, but you won't live. ”

Li Zijin glanced at Xingfu from the corner of his eye, why hasn't the fire lit up yet, hasn't he done what he said?

If it didn't attract Xing Shen's attention with its firelight, then it would be difficult for Xing Shen to rush here to help him, facing a sword immortal who had started the Jindan realm alone, and he Li Zijin thought that he was not an opponent.

As soon as the woman's voice fell, she saw that the young man in brocade still had time to look elsewhere, so she was angry and laughed, approached her, and handed out a sword.

The young man's figure flashed, and he slapped a palm on the wrist of the fake Zhuang Die, trying to shoot down her long sword, but unfortunately the palm was like a slap on an iron plate, not moving at all, extremely tricky, but it shook him away.

The fake Zhuang Die saw that the young man's body was amazing, and he repeatedly missed the stab, so he changed his tactics and no longer held the sword against the enemy, but gently threw the long sword in his hand.

The long sword is volleyed in the air, the woman puts her index finger and middle finger together, pinches the sword trick, recites the words in her mouth, and then slaps it horizontally, and her hand guides the long sword to gallop.

She just had to stay put, and she could use her long sword to chase Li Zijin.

The long sword fell on his head, and the young man dodged away, and the sword went straight into the ground three inches, and the killing power was amazing, if it was accidentally "touched", I am afraid that it would be split in two from head to toe.

The next moment, Li Zijin, who had turned the willow body method, had already held the Cuiqu sword again, and it was just a roll, but while the woman was not paying attention to the long sword, she leaned towards the place where the Cuiqu sword fell, and suddenly accelerated, and then succeeded.

When the fake Zhuang Die saw the young man pick up the sword, his eyes were full of disdain and contempt, and he snorted coldly: "I don't think I can do anything, it's just an ant in the Peiyuan Realm, even if you pick up the sword, what's the use?"

The woman harnessed the long sword in a turn in the bamboo forest, and suddenly galloped back, at this moment, the tip of the sword was more sharp and incomparably white light, and the sword qi was already on the string, ready to attack.

Li Zijin secretly said that it was not good, and his body suddenly retreated dozens of steps.

The next moment, where the young man was standing, a large pit several feet deep had appeared on the ground.

On the ground, bamboo leaves were flying all over the sky, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

didn't have time to be surprised by the power of the sword immortal's shot, and after the sword qi missed, the long sword came through the air again, directly taking the young man's head.

It's so fast that it doesn't give people the opportunity to react at all.

At this time of life and death, Li Zijin closed his eyes.

Under the moonlight, in the bamboo forest.

The young man in brocade wiped the horizontal sword in his left hand and recited a word silently.

"Chop. ”

The long sword that was all within reach was actually stopped in front of him by the Cuiqu sword in the young man's hand, and he couldn't move an inch.

The woman from the Jindan Realm in the distance looked at that scene in amazement, unable to believe it.

However, what made her jaw drop even more was still to come.

I saw that the long sword could not advance an inch, and the young man's palm suddenly exerted force, and a light rain suddenly fell in the sky.

Then, a gust of spring breeze blew.

The rain, which was originally harmless to livestock, instantly turned into sword light.

The boy slashed out two swords horizontally and vertically.

It's silent.

After a short silence, all the green bamboos in the bamboo forest fell side by side at a speed visible to the naked eye, cut horizontally into sections, cut vertically into blocks, and after two swords horizontally and vertically, there were thousands of green bamboos.

The spring rain rushed by with the spring breeze.

In the green bamboo forest, the sword light fell like rain.

Rao is the woman who prides herself on being a Golden Pill Sword Immortal, and she has to transport an aura barrier to resist the sword light in the sky.

Even if she was unable to break through the rain of swords and rush towards the young man in the distance, if Li Zijin wanted to leave at this moment, she really couldn't keep it.

Fake Zhuang Die's eyes were full of surprise, but he regretted that he didn't sacrifice the natal flying sword for the first time, and directly took its head.

If she hadn't taken a mere Peiyuan Realm ant in her eyes, how could she have given that ant a chance to use her sword?

careless, you shouldn't underestimate the enemy, the woman was annoyed.

It's just that it takes a lot of effort to kill the boy.

When you have the opportunity, you must kill the young swordsman, and you must not leave your mouth alive!

Run, run as far as you can, and see if you're the fastest runner or if I'm the fastest Edgeworth.

However, just when she thought that the young man knew that he was invincible and should take advantage of the moment when the sword rain stopped her, and used the speed of the sword immortal to quickly escape from here, something even more shocking happened to her.

In the sword light in the sky, the young man lifted his sword, walked at night in brocade clothes, and his body turned into several afterimages, carrying a sword to take the woman's head.

He held a three-foot green blade in his hand and met him.

I don't know if I am angry that the young swordsman does not take himself into the Jindan Realm in his eyes, or laughs at the young swordsman who does not measure his strength to go and return, and he has to die in his own hands to be willing.

Fake Zhuang Die smiled.

Since you, an ant of the Peiyuan Realm, are bent on death, then I will fulfill you.

Looking for death by yourself, under Huangquan Road, don't blame me for bullying the small.

The woman's hands are pressed together at the same time, and the two fingers of the food are pinched together.

Suddenly sacrificed the natal flying sword.

A majestic sword intent enveloped the woman's body, and a short dagger-like natal flying sword hovered over the woman's chest.

She retracted her fingers, then instantly forward, pointed at the brocade-clothed young swordsman, and roared, "Go!"

In the blink of an eye, the flying sword had arrived, which was faster than the willow folding body method, and faster than the Jindan Sword Immortal.

She smiled contentedly as if she could already see the tragic death of the young man.

However, the next moment, his natal flying sword disappeared out of thin air?

The majestic sword intent that was exclusive to the Jindan Sword Immortal Natal Flying Sword also disappeared together.

When I looked closely, the young man in brocade didn't know where to go.

The next moment, she felt a trace of coolness on her neck, she instantly reached out and touched it, it was full of blood, and before she could take a closer look, there was a stinging pain in her chest, and the woman looked down, only to see an "inexplicable" opening in her heart.

"Poof. ”

A mouthful of blood spat out, and she finally felt terrified.

When and where?

Who am I?

Who's making the sword?

Is that him?

He's clearly just an ant in the Peiyuan Realm!

And then.

Shoulders, waist, back, arms, wrists, ankles, calves, thighs, ribs······

One by one, sword wounds appeared out of thin air.

The woman fell to the ground in response, blood gushing like a spring, and she still couldn't believe that one of her Jindan Realm sword immortals would lose in the hands of Peiyuan Realm ants.

No, it must not be, he is some kind of power that hides the realm!

She didn't even know why she was swordsman, and where did the man get the sword?

Suddenly woke up, and the woman used the fastest luck speed in her life to mobilize all the aura in the sea of consciousness to protect the golden pill in her body.

When she was dying, she pinched the sword technique, attracted the golden pill in her body, broke away from her body, flew out of her body, turned into a sword light, went straight to the sky, and fled quickly.

Jin Dan guards the soul, and the monk abandons the body, just like a strong man who breaks his wrist, although he is crippled but alive.

The so-called earth immortal is one more life than ordinary qi refiners.

————

In a flowing water.

A young swordsman in a black and red brocade robe faced a woman who was holding her hands together and pointing forward at the same time.

The woman was motionless, and there were dozens of scars on her body.

Jin Dan Sword Immortal's physique is far beyond ordinary people, and he can't even kill two swords in his neck and heart.

In desperation, Li Zijin could only add sword wounds to the woman's body in this almost cruel way.

Catch and fight, and if you don't live, you will die.

To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself.

Teenagers can only do that.

Until she felt that her vitality was passing quickly, and she was even breathless.

Only then did Li Zijin swing his sword to close the flowing water.

Looking at the corpse of the fake Zhuang Butterfly who fell in the bamboo forest, Li Zijin said expressionlessly: "The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, I don't know such a simple truth? You should always pay the price for despising your enemies. ”

The young man then fell to the ground with all his strength, the aura of Zhihai was squeezed dry, and the Cuiqu Sword also became dim, and the quenching sword stone was used in vain.

After a vicious battle, he was injured countless times, especially in the face of the monstrous sword intent of the female sword immortal at that time, just that momentum, the momentum had been suppressed so much that Li Zijin could hardly raise the battle intent in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that he had also had a head-to-head confrontation with Su Hancai of the Jindan Realm before, and had already prepared for the "potential" of the Sword Immortal, he might have died here today.

The spring breeze and spring rain plus the sword mang, blowing the willows on both sides of the river, have already made the fake Zhuang Die mistakenly think that it is his strongest killing move.

But she never expected that it was herself, an ant in the Peiyuan Realm, and there was still a stream of time to cut off.

The boy lay in the bamboo forest, panting for breath, but his face was full of smiles.

It was a smile of ecstasy.

Today's battle declares that in the face of the strong, he can finally no longer escape.

Today's fake Zhuang Butterfly is killed, tomorrow's Daxuan Dynasty, and Kunlun Mountain in the coming year. Will it be far?

It's getting closer.

The boy thought about it, and was about to fall asleep, but he still murmured.

I can also use Li Zijin to cut Jin Dan with a sword.
