In the place less than 100 miles away from Taoping Town, there is a big mountain, called Jiuquan Mountain, and there is a Xianjia Cave Mansion on the mountain, called Yunxiao Pavilion.

This sect has been established for less than two hundred years, and in the entire immortal cultivation world, it can only be regarded as a new small sect.

But in the vicinity of Taoping Town, compared to those miscellaneous sects, it is already a relatively formal sect.

Its head Hong Taoshan is a monk of the second realm of Xuanwu, and his thunder method is quite powerful, and he can be regarded as well-known in the local immortal cultivation circle.

I heard that this head of the sect turned out to be an outer disciple of a second-rate Lei sect in Middle Earth, and later the sect was destroyed, and he fled to this point before he founded Yunxiao Pavilion.

But at this time, this Yunxiao Pavilion, which was very revered by the local scattered cultivators, the sect's magic circle was destroyed, all the disciples were slaughtered, and the corpses were all over the field, and the scorched black marks left by the collision of spells could be seen everywhere.

It turned out to be the plaque of Lei Yuan Hall as the main hall of the sect, and at this time there was only a broken "Yuan" word left.

And in the middle of the main hall, there were five people kneeling at this time, they were the head of the Yunxiao Pavilion, Hong Taoshan, and the four elders of the sect, but at this time, they no longer had the vigor of the past, and they all looked really embarrassed and depressed.

And in front of them, stood two strangely dressed people, unable to distinguish between men and women, black and white, with masks on their faces, and each of them holding a magic weapon in their hands, called the Soul Reaver Hook and the Regent Ruler.

The man in black hooked the soul snatcher on the shoulder of one of the elders named Li Yi, and saw that this elder's body trembled obviously.

So the man in black patted Li Yi lightly on the shoulder, and sneered: "Aren't you an elder of a sect? ”

Li Yi smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking to himself, can he not be afraid? It was the two plague gods in front of him who killed more than 150 lives of his entire sect.

One of the hot-tempered elders directly scolded: "You two straight thieves, why didn't you just kill the old man just now, come on!"

"Do you want to die? Okay, I'll have to fulfill you. The man in black said slowly.

I saw him pick up the Soul Snatcher Hook and point at the elder in the air, and an illusory black snake rushed towards the elder's eyes, and the latter's eyes turned into a pool of blood in an instant.

The black snake went directly into the elder's sea of knowledge, and began to devour his sea of knowledge, and it was still a slow knife to cut the flesh, and his face was hideous in pain, but he still held on and didn't shout.

At this moment, a young man suddenly appeared at the door of the main hall, wearing a red robe, with long hair fluttering, looking very handsome, but there was an inexplicable evil aura on his body, clapping his hands and praised: "Okay, good, it seems that this Taoist friend is still an iron-clad man, not bad, not bad!"

Hearing this voice, the two masked men immediately stood aside and quickly buried their heads.

The next moment, the red-robed man appeared in front of Hong Taoshan, lowered his head slightly, looked at Hong Taoshan who was kneeling on the ground, smiled evilly, and asked casually, "You are in charge here?"

"Hmm. Hong Taoshan said in a muffled voice.

The red-robed man ignored Hong Taoshan's attitude, and then spoke, "Then do you know the purpose of our coming here?"

Hearing this, Hong Taoshan couldn't hold back any longer, and said sadly: "Purpose? The cultivation realm has always been the weak and the strong, but now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, do you need any more reasons?"

"Hehe, having said that, I'm not the kind of person who kills innocents indiscriminately, as long as you answer me a good question, maybe ......"

Speaking of this, the red-robed man lowered his head, approached Hong Tao Mountain, looked into the other party's eyes, and then continued: "Maybe I will let you live? ”

"What?" If there is hope for life, no one will give up, especially for these cultivators who have lived for hundreds of years.

"This question has to start with a red finch, do you know what to say?"

Half an hour later, the group of three walked out of the main hall, and behind them, there were five more headless corpses.

"Master, why didn't you just search for your soul? The man in white standing behind the red-robed man couldn't help but ask.

The former turned his head to look at the latter, and the man in white immediately knelt on the ground, and his voice trembled: "Subordinates should be damned!"

The red-robed man smiled and said, "Xiaobai, what are you afraid of? I won't eat you, right?"

"After all, that person is from Middle Earth, although he is only a second-rate sect disciple, but there are still prohibitions in his body, forcibly searching for souls, it is not okay, understand? ”

"It's the stupidity of the subordinates!"

"Xiaobai, when you do things under me, you still have to be smarter. Otherwise, it's better for me to do it myself than to let you be killed by someone else one day. ”

"Yes. The person who was called Xiaobai by the red-robed man, when he heard this, his already drooping head drooped even lower.

The red-robed man opened a folding fan and gently fanned it back, and the hall suddenly turned into powder: "Get up, prepare to go to Taoping Town, if it's too late, maybe that little bird will fly out of my palm again......"

After lunch, the rain gradually subsided, Liu Pingsan put on his own basket and prepared to go to the mountains to pick some Tsubaki buds.

This season, it is the time to eat Tsubaki sprouts, pick it back, boil it with water, put a handful of salt, and you can deal with it again, which is the experience that Liu Pingsan has summed up after living alone for so many years.

Except for the two years when his mother just died, Liu Pingsan ate a hundred meals from the neighborhood for two or three years, and after the age of ten, Liu Pingsan was able to support himself alone.

When the farm is busy, he works for other people's families to earn enough copper money to buy oil and salt, and when the farm is not working, he goes to the mountains to pick wild fruits, pick wild vegetables, or go down to the river to catch fish, basically there is nothing Liu Pingsan will not know.

Liu Pingsan carried a basket on his back and walked between the mountains and forests, agile like a small wild leopard.

Since eating that little fruit, Liu Pingsan has clearly felt that his physique is getting better day by day, and his speed, strength, and flexibility are also constantly improving.

Only half an hour later, Liu Pingsan had already walked a lot in the mountains and forests, and also picked most of the tsubaki buds in the basket.

Liu Pingsan is very happy, some of these Tsubaki sprouts can be directly used as the nearest staple food, others can be dried and left for winter to eat, by the way, you can also send some to Grandpa Chen.

Because he has no wife and children, Grandpa Chen has been very good to Liu Pingsan since he was a child, whenever he gets something delicious, he must let Liu Pingsan go to his house to eat with him, and when it is the coldest in winter, let Liu Pingsan move in to live with him.

Liu Pingsan knew that if it weren't for Grandpa Chen, maybe he would have died in a cold winter.

On the way home, Liu Pingsan began to hum a minor tune, which he learned from Grandpa Chen.

"The grass is vast, next to the dam

Leading the cows and herding the sheep

It was cloudy and overcast

I have to go to school tomorrow

When I grew up, I didn't have cattle or sheep

In the summer, you can only lie in bed

Lonely people want grass

But the heart is always higher than the sky

The big trees chase the light, and the sun is confused

Lonely people, lack of soup

Things are gathered by like, and people are grouped

Be wise, don't be confused,

Well~~~~~

……”

The light melody echoed between the mountains and forests, and even the whole world seemed to calm down a little.

Outside Taoping Town, the group of Yan Wolves, who were hiding their whereabouts, were standing on top of a mountain, looking at the town in front of them.

"Master, is this the place?" asked the man in black.

"Well, I can already feel the breath of that little red sparrow. ”

"What about us?"

"Don't worry, in order to prevent her from escaping again, let's make a big cage for her, hehe. ”
