The young Ye Xian left alone from Ping'an County with the black knife that his master had passed on to him.

The first time a young man walked the rivers and lakes, this black knife representing hope and opportunity would undoubtedly bring a lot of different things to Ye Xian.

For example, the madness of the people in the rivers and lakes, and of course their greed.

Therefore, Ye Xian, who had just entered the rivers and lakes, in order to ensure the safety of his own life, wrapped a white cloth around this black knife.

As for the other crucial token on his body, the black-skinned wine gourd was just allowed to hang on his waist, not tight.

In the end, this wine gourd is more precious.

After all, the people who have drunk the wine in this gourd owe them the favor of the black knife, these people are either the romantic figures on the rivers and lakes or the generals and doctors in the officialdom, or even the rich and rich people who rival the country.

When these people made a wish to the black knife, they knew that one day someone would come to them with this black-skinned wine gourd to repay the grace of reinvention back then.

And it only recognizes the gourd and does not recognize the person.

But it's also strange, this black leather wine gourd is not well-known in the rivers and lakes, but this black knife has become a confirmation of the identity of his master, Ye Xian smiled, this is probably the cart before the horse that the master once told him.

It has been a month since he left Ping'an County, and Ye Xian hurried unhurriedly along the way, and at this time he also rushed to the boundary of Youzhou.

His master excludes him from traveling in the rivers and lakes this time, mainly for two purposes.

The first is to fulfill the task that the Black Knife Clan has to perform every twenty years, to make this river and lake more lively, to fulfill the wishes of some people in the rivers and lakes, and at the same time, the grace left twenty years ago will also collect interest at that time.

The second reason is that Ye Xian has no father and no mother since he was a child, and there is a former black knife master who looks sick and has no spirit, that is, his master adopted and raised him, and now he has reached the age of the weak crown, he has never left Ping'an County alone, his master always said that if the practice is always done behind closed doors, it will be meaningless, or the people and things on the rivers and lakes are more interesting, so there is the first time that Xiao Ye Xian has taken a horse and walked the rivers and lakes.

The most important thing is that as his own coming-of-age ceremony, the master made a list of twenty-three people for himself, these twenty-three people range from weak to strong, from relatively low-level fifth-grade martial artists to grandmaster-level masters above the tenth grade, but without exception, they are all notorious people above the Great Xia rivers and lakes, and there is no one in ten thousand big devils.

His master asked him to kill all the people on the list within a year, which was a test for his apprentice Ye Xian as a master, and only if Ye Xian passed the test could he be regarded as the real next master of the black knife.

"I wondered, forty years ago, when Master and his old man went into the rivers and lakes alone, and when he carried out the black knife mission in the rivers and lakes for the first time, how could he be so relaxed and casual? This time it was my turn, the top one in the list of twenty-three people was the thirteenth ranked guy in the martial arts on the rivers and lakes, even if he was abandoned, there were only twenty-two guys left, and now I am afraid that I can fight no more than one hand, but it is really difficult. ”

Ye Xian sat on the horse and nodded as if he had thought of something.

"That's right, Master, his old man raised his own true dragon when he was fourteen years old, and when he came out of the mountain at the age of eighteen, he was already a master of transcendent sainthood, how can I compare with his old man? It seems that I, the weakest black sword master in thousands of years, should be sitting down. ”

Ye Xian couldn't help but feel a little stunned when he thought of this, but then immediately adjusted again.

"It's a big deal to go back to Ping'an County when the day comes, and then it's a big deal to be educated by the master. ”

Although Ye Xian said this, he didn't have the slightest idea of this kind of unproductive but relaxed in his heart.

Ye Xian's calves tightened the horse's belly slightly, urging his mount to speed up the pace of rushing to Youzhou.

Youzhou happens to have one of the twenty-three people on the list, and it just happens to be the one that Ye Xian can fight now.

This big devil in Youzhou, to put it bluntly, is not a big devil, at best he is just a scum of the rivers and lakes, this person has an extremely wonderful nickname, and the name is called the black fox and willow into smoke.

It can be seen from the nicknames given to him by the people in the rivers and lakes that this guy's fame is not based on his martial arts skills, but more on his own dirty romances.

Liu Chengyan is the number one flower thief on the rivers and lakes.

In the ten years since his debut, the scourge of the Huanghua girl is not under the past, almost every two or three days to sneak into the girl's boudoir, and tie people up to do those dirty things, those heroines on the rivers and lakes are very angry about this person's harm to the Huanghua girl, and even some heroines let out cruel words, if one day Liu Chengyan is gone, he will regret being a man in his life.

As for how to make him regret being a man, that's the matter of the bold woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go.

The martial arts on the rivers and lakes are divided into a grade from bottom to top, from the lowest one to the highest ten grades, it seems that there is a big difference in the realm, but in fact, the gap between the first grade and the ten grades may be very large, but the gap between the five grades and the ten grades is not big, it is nothing more than that the breath of the ten grades of martial arts is longer and the internal force is more vigorous.

But the martial artist above the top ten grades, that is another level.

Martial arts is already the ultimate when he reaches the tenth grade, and if he wants to go further, he must raise a Jiao in his own dantian qi sea.

Of course, it is not a real Jiao, but a Jiao formed by its own internal force, and this Jiao represents the realm of martial arts above the ten grades.

The first layer above the ten products is the river, and the Jiao into the river is the first layer of the realm above the ten products.

The second realm is to view the sea, and above the sea is the real dragon.

Ye Xian's master turned into a dragon at the age of fourteen, but only a few people in the black knife lineage knew about this matter, otherwise once it was introduced into the rivers and lakes, it would cause an uproar, which was an extremely high martial arts talent that had never been seen in the world.

Not to mention the transcendent sainthood at the age of eighteen, reaching a state that ordinary people can't even see.

This time, Ye Xian was not worried about the black fox in the color, but he was a little anxious.

After all, his master is so amazing and gorgeous, and as his closed disciple, he is the only descendant of the black knife, and he will inevitably feel a little inferior because of his current seven-rank martial arts realm, so he really wants to prove himself in some way, maybe it is better to convince himself.

Therefore, Liu Chengyan is a stepping stone and a touchstone for Ye Xian.
