After resting for a day and saying goodbye to everyone, the Great Elder set off with Ming Fan, and the two walked to the bottom of the mountain, and the Great Elder asked, "Little guy, are you ready?"

"Hmm, what are you going to prepare?" Ming Fan had a bad feeling.

"Ready..... That's right. I saw the Great Elder running the True Qi in his body, wrapped his left arm, held Ming Fan in his arms, formed a protective True Qi around his body, and then took off into the air and flew north, only to hear Ming Fan in the Great Elder's arms shouting loudly, "Help~~~~~"

There is a martial city in the north of Xuanqing Gate, which can be seen from the name, this is a city that advocates force and has a strong atmosphere of rivers and lakes.

The so-called atmosphere of the rivers and lakes is that whoever has a big fist will have a reason.

In Shangwu City, you will often see Jianghu knights, robbers and bandits, hunters, hunting and so on, so at the beginning of the establishment of Shangwu City, the security situation here is very poor, there will be all kinds of rivers and lakes every day, a fight will kill people, a death is several, even a dozen, so the business of the coffin shop in the city is quite hot.

Later, several coffin shops, in order to monopolize Shangwu City, all the white business, as a result, they also fought, and in the end, the coffins in the city were not enough.

Just after the chaotic situation in Shangwu City lasted for several years, one person in the city suddenly defeated everyone by himself and contained this chaotic situation.

This person's name is Murong He, and although there is a word "harmony" in his name, his style of acting is not harmonious at all.

He was originally a coffin shop owner in the city, and one night when he was sleeping, a voice in his dream told him that he would give him a book of exercises and let him unify Shangwu City.

After Murong He woke up, he thought it was just an ordinary dream, but he found that he really had a book of exercises on his pillow, and he was more surprised than afraid.

"Last night's dream was real?"

"What is the purpose of the man in the dream?"

Murong He vaguely remembered that the voice in the dream told him a name.

"Filth"

Murong He picked up the book of "Bloodstained Corpse Crushing Technique" next to his pillow and flipped through it, this exercise was cultivated by absorbing the yin and evil qi on the corpse, which was no problem, after all, Murong inevitably came into contact with corpses in his work on weekdays, and he also knew exactly where those corpses were buried after being put into the coffin.

So from this day on, Murong He would sneak out of the city with a shovel every night, go to the places where the coffins were buried, and dig up the corpses to practice the "Bloodstained Corpse Fragmentation Technique".

Gradually, Murong He discovered the cruelty of this exercise, every time he absorbed the yin and evil qi on the corpse, the corpse would dry up and turn into powder.

The ruthlessness of this exercise, and the speed of cultivation, surprised Murong He.

Because while absorbing the yin and evil qi through exercise, it will also absorb a part of the true qi cultivated in the deceased's body before his death and turn it into his own use.

Of course, what this exercise requires is that a corpse that has been dead for no more than a month, beyond this time, it cannot be used to practice with the "Bloodstained Corpse Fragmentation Technique", but the most important thing in Shangwu City is fresh corpses, so every night Murong He will run out of the city, find the corpse that has just died not long after the day, dig it out, and suck it.

In the blink of an eye, in three years, Murong He was successful in cultivation, so he set up a ring in the city, and vowed to unify Shangwu City, which caused an uproar as soon as he said it, and also attracted countless challenges, and finally after more than a dozen effortless battles, Murong He defeated a number of masters.

For Shangwu City, which has always been hard fists, it is up to them to say, as a creed, it is only natural for the powerful Murong He to unify Shangwu City.

Are you not convinced? It's very easy to defeat Murong He. What? Can't beat it? Then you just have to endure it.

After suppressing those brave and ruthless people with absolute force, Murong He claimed to be the lord of Shangwu City, and established a mansion "Murong Mansion" in the center of the city, and then set up "Douguan", "Naguan", and "Hengguan", and promulgated some city rules, such as,

If people in the rivers and lakes want to fight, they must register in the "fighting hall", and then go to the designated arena to fight.

Secondly, after the fighting is over, the corpse must be handed over to the "Naguan" for disposal, and the corpse must not be taken away without permission.

In order to maintain the business environment of the merchants in the city, no one is allowed to make trouble or fight outside the arena.

Merchants must donate protection funds to the "Murong Mansion" every quarter in accordance with the regulations.

After the promulgation of these city rules, at first it aroused many people's opposition openly or covertly.

"In the past, Shangwu City was a place where you used your fists to speak, and there was no concept of order, why did you Murong He become a city lord and make these rules for us. ”

For these uncooperative people, Murong He's approach is also very simple,

Fight, fight until you cooperate, what? Kill without cooperating? Yes, then just shoot to death!

Under this iron blood pressure system, there were fewer and fewer people who opposed it, and slowly many people gradually discovered the benefits of these city rules.

First of all, there are no more street fights, and the environment in the city has become better than before, and with it, there is more and more people in the city, and all kinds of businesses such as inns, teahouses and taverns have also improved.

Until now, under the leadership of Murong He's grandson, Murong Jingyi, the prosperity of Shangwu City is no less than that of the ancient city "Luohe".

In the evening, in terms of our time, it was more than four o'clock in the afternoon, outside Shangwu City, a figure suddenly fell from the sky, it was an old man in a Taoist robe, and in the old man's arms there was a ten-year-old child, it was the Great Elder and Ming Fan.

"Is Ming Fan okay?" the Great Elder asked as he let go of Ming Fan in his arms.

Ming Fan's face was pale, his legs were a little trembling, and he reluctantly said, "No... It's okay.

"I know it's uncomfortable to be carried up and flyed, so just get used to it. The Great Elder patted Ming Fan on the shoulder, remembering that when the four of them were taken to the foot of Xuanqingmen Mountain by Xuanyang Zhenren, at that time, several of them couldn't stand, especially the Second Elder fainted directly.

"We're going to stay here tonight after a day's journey. After speaking, the Great Elder led Ming Fan to the city.

At the same time, in Shangwu City, in Murong Mansion, a man with a long black beard and a golden brocade robe was sitting on a treasure chair.

In the shadow corner of the room, there was also a man, if Luo Xu was there, he would definitely kill this man, because this man was the shadow man who entrusted Luo Xu and them to slaughter Mingjia Village.

The first to speak was Murong Jingyi, "Brother Mo, you seem to be a little late." ”

Brother Mo in Murong Jingyi's mouth, that is, the shadow man, smiled faintly, and replied in his majestic and elegant voice, "I'm sorry, Brother Murong, it took some extra time to arrange the formation in the valley before. ”

"Got in trouble?" asked Murong Jingyi.

The shadow man said calmly, "I can't talk about trouble, it's just that I underestimated the consumption required to set up the 'Filthy Ghost Array', which caused me to spend an extra three days. ”

Murong Jingyi stroked his beard, "The 'Filthy Evil Ghost Array' is a great array that can change the earth's qi, and its consumption must be very huge, and it is not easy for Brother Mo to complete the arrangement alone. ”

"You're welcome, Brother Murong. After the greetings, the shadow man took out three carbon-black beads from his arms and handed them to Murong Jingyi in the air, "This is what you want, Brother Murong." ”

Murong Jingyi took it in his hand and looked at it, and asked the shadow man, "How can I use this?"

The shadow man replied, "Use the yin and evil qi in your body as a guide to export the filthy qi in the bead, and then infuse it into the body of the target you want to defile. ”

"So easy?"

"That's right, but remember, you must use the yin and evil qi in your body to guide the filthy qi. The shadow man reminded, "Although you use the exercises I gave you to conceal and offset the secrets and so-called "side effects" of cultivating the 'Bloodstained Corpse Fragmentation Technique', remember not to misuse that true qi to guide, if you use it to guide, the filthy qi will eat you back, and no one will be able to save you at that time." ”

"Well, thank you Brother Mo for reminding me, I'll keep it in mind. Murong Jingyi thanked him, "Come and drink tea, please." ”

"Please. ”

Although Mingjia Village is not far from the city of "Luohe", Ming Fan has never been there, so this is the first time he has seen the bustling crowd, the bustling market, dizzying, and the discomfort caused by flying before has also calmed down a lot.

The Great Elder took Ming Fan to an inn, ordered a few plates of vegetables, booked a room, and gave the two of them a rest, although the Great Elder now no longer needs to replenish his strength by eating and sleeping, but Ming Fan is still a child, and he needs to rest.

After eating something, Ming Fan lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze, the Great Elder looked at Ming Fan who had fallen asleep, his eyes were full of kindness, and he said in his heart, "It seems that this child is very tired today." ”

The Great Elder wanted to close his eyes and meditate all night, but in Shangwu City, he couldn't calm down in his heart, and the reason was the gradually expanding ambition of the Shangwu City Lord, Murong Jingyi.

Since Murong He unified Shangwu City and established the Murong family, there have been three family heads so far.

The first is Murong He, who became a top first-class master by cultivating the "Blood Stain Corpse Fragmentation Technique", but this trick is to absorb the yin and evil qi of the deceased after all, resulting in Murong He passing away at the age of one hundred and three, and the lifespan of first-class masters on the Lingzhou Continent is generally around one hundred and fifty years old, so Murong He, who only lived to the age of one hundred and three, can be regarded as "early death" to some extent.

The second is Murong He's son, Murong Jingyi's father, Murong Bo.

Unlike his father Murong He, Murong Bo focused more on how to alleviate the "side effects" brought about by the cultivation of the "Blood Stain Corpse Fragmentation Technique".

Later, Murong Bo thought that maybe he could neutralize the "side effects" caused by the corpse crushing technique by practicing other exercises, and the idea was good, but the corpse crushing technique was too domineering, so that although his method had an effect, it was not very effective, and in the end, like Murong He, he cultivated to the level of a top first-class master, and died at the age of one hundred and thirteen.

The third head of the family, Murong Jingyi, is one hundred and twenty-six years old this year, and he is a congenital-level master. In terms of martial arts strength, it completely crushed the two family heads,

After all, even if it is a top-notch master, it is only the level of the "acquired" level, and there is an indescribable difference between it and the innate level of masters.

And Murong Jingyi can have such strength, in addition to his own talent, he is also inseparable from the help of nobles.

Before Murong Jingyi was thirty years old, like his father, he was also looking for exercises that could alleviate the "side effects" of the "Bloodstained Corpse Crushing Technique", but he never gained anything, until one night in his sleep, a voice told him,

"Three days later, there will be someone who will go to Murong Mansion in the middle of the night to look for you, and when the time comes, you will go to the study and wait for him, and this person will help you solve the problem. ”

The current achievement of the Murong family is to sleep out, which Murong Jingyi knows very well, his grandfather got the help of a mysterious voice in his sleep and got the secret book of the exercises, so for the dream he just had, Murong Jingyi is convinced,

So on the night of the third day, Murong Jingyi sat in the study on time, waiting for the person who helped him, the shadow man in the previous article, that is, the "Brother Mo" in Murong Jingyi's mouth. ”

This "Brother Mo" gave Murong Jingyi a book of exercises for him to practice, which can not only effectively alleviate the "side effects" brought about by the "Blood Stain Corpse Crushing Technique", but also speed up the progress of cultivation, in addition, it can also be used to hide their Murong family's cultivation of evil methods.

Since that day, Murong Jingyi has relied on his own talent and the help of "Brother Mo", and his cultivation progress has been making rapid progress.

Without the worries of "side effects", Murong Jingyi can also put his mind on integrating the forces of the rivers and lakes, it only took him a few years to collect some second- and third-rate sects near Shangwu City, and in recent years, he has already wanted to annex Xuanqingmen.

In the study room of Murong Mansion, Murong Jingyi's eyes were gloomy, playing with the three black beads given to him by "Brother Mo" in his hand, and he said to himself, "This play has to be performed well."
