After saying goodbye to He Erniang, I walked forward alone, and only walked a few miles forward to see the iron-mouthed lake that the red-tailed monster said.

The terrain of the Western Regions is different, mountains and rivers abound, and when you walk here, it is another scene, and at a glance, it has completely become a grassland landform. Tiezui Lake is not very big, there is only Li Xu in the square circle, looking at it from a distance, its shape is very much like a spout, far away to guide the side. But it is also strange that in this piece of green turf, Tiezui Lake seems to have become an anomaly, except for the green grass in the vast area around the lake, there is not even a single tree shadow, and the rain seems to be much smaller here.

There are also many chivalrous people in the Hall of Eternal Life. Although I said goodbye to He Erniang, I have been thinking about what has happened in the past two days.

The heinous crimes committed by more than 100 of them in the Miluo Clan, and now, I can't even feel the slightest resentment towards them, but it is Ban Huailing and their Qingcheng Sect disciples who make me feel uneasy.

The Seven Great Sects are known as the Righteous Masters, and I thought a little sarcastically. If they are not under the banner of justice, how different is they from ordinary evil people in what they have done? After all, aren't they still a group of murderous people? But when the banner is sounded, it is the desire of the people, and it is not a righteous army but also a righteous army.

Qi exists between all things, and all things have two ways: yin and yang.

The Open Heaven Scroll has been destroyed, but these words are engraved in my heart.

In the world, there are positive and negative sides in the heart, the heart is the right way, and the demon thoughts are the devil's way. That's probably what those words mean.

As I stepped on the grass, my body became heavier and heavier. The rain here was much lighter, and it was already like a silk mist, and although I was wearing a fur coat, I was completely soaked when I walked here. But fortunately, it's spring, and although I'm soaking wet, I don't feel that cold, and it's a little warm in the rain.

When it was getting late, I walked to the end of this grassland, and it seemed like a different scene in front of me, a group of mountains and green forests. That night, I meditated in a hollow in a tree, changed my medicine the next morning, nibbled on dried meat, and continued on my way. I didn't quite understand the few words that Zheng Dongsheng left before leaving, but I tried my best to meditate according to what he said about guarding the gods and holding the mind, although I didn't find any difference between this and my previous meditation, and my internal strength did not rise, but my spirit was much better.

I arrived at Shacheng at noon on the third day, and when I stood on the high slope and looked out, all I could see was ruins. Sand City is located on the southern edge of the Death Swamp, which is said to be on the outskirts of the Death Swamp, but in fact it is separated by a barren desert, and there is still a long way to go from the outer forest of the Death Swamp. Walking here, the continuous drizzle has stopped. From a distance, the earthen city houses in the center of the city are already ruined, the dilapidated earthen walls are full of weeds and broken wood, and the sand to the west is full of scattered broken tents, probably too late for people to take away when they escape. There was a fish-headed monster in the Swamp of Death, and no one dared to come here anymore, leaving only Xiao Liang.

I didn't walk very quickly, and it wasn't until the evening of the fifth day that I saw a sign of people. Shacheng is thousands of miles away from Kunlun Mountain, but if you hurry up, you can walk to Kunlun Mountain in three or four days. This area is a low-lying mountainous area, and the surrounding mountains are not high, but it is a dense forest and dense grass. Originally, there were still many tribes in this place, but now they are also invisible.

It was getting late, and the red sun was gradually falling in the west. I was a little tired from walking, looking at the shadows of the green trees in front of me, wondering where I would stay tonight.

As he was looking forward, he suddenly heard a heavy wheezing sound from the grass in front of him. The sound came in such a hurry that I could only hear the sound of my feet stepping on the grass, as if something was rushing towards me. I stood still and looked ahead.

The road was no longer visible, and was lined with low old trees, and the grass under the trees was so dense and deep that I could not see anything at all, but I felt that it was getting closer and closer to me just by listening to the heavy breathing.

Are the remnants of the tribe in the Sand City area here?

I had just stood still for a short time, when suddenly, there was a sudden tremor in a bush dozens of paces ahead, and the grass parted, and a tiger with a white forehead jumped out from behind the grass.

I was taken aback, and the man took a step backwards, his right hand resting on the hilt of the Shadow Chasing Sword. This tiger didn't expect that there would be people here, when Fang Yi jumped out of the grass, his head actually looked back, and after it landed on the ground with both paws, its head also turned around, but it was the yellow-orange eyes that shrank, roared at me, kicked the ground with its hind feet, and its body did not stop at all, and it rushed straight towards me.

I actually ran into a mountain tiger here.

It's not so much a fear as an accident. At the beginning, from Kunlun Mountain all the way to Shacheng, although we have also met some mountain beasts along the way, but we have never met mountain tigers, that is because the mountains in this area are very gentle, even if there are steep places, there is not so much suspense, mountain tigers like to live in steep rocks and steep mountains, generally do not choose such a place to build a nest.

This mountain tiger is also a rare strong, jumping out of the grass, I can already see that its body is an astonishing length of one and a half feet, and it swoops down from mid-air, but it also carries the momentum of wind and thunder.

If I had dealt with a mountain tiger a few months earlier, I would have been like a great enemy, and now in my eyes, I don't even think it's a wild monster.

After thinking so much in my mind, suddenly there was a colorful color, and this tiger had pounced on my head, and the strong wind it carried down blew the messy hair on my forehead.

I didn't think about it, my right hand tightened, my legs bent slightly, and when its claws were about to grab my front door, the person suddenly jumped to the left and flashed, and the shadow chasing sword in his right hand was already unsheathed.

The shadow chasing sword groaned when it met the wind, reflecting an afterglow in the west, and I only saw a cold flash in the corner of my eyes, only a "poof" sound, and the groan stopped abruptly, and the shadow chasing sword was inserted back into the scabbard behind me again.

After sliding a few feet on the grass, I stopped, only to hear a "poof" sound behind me, and turned my head to look again, the mountain tiger was already in a different place, and the huge tiger body fell in the grass for a long distance, and a column of blood spurted out of the neck, spilling all over the ground along the way.

Compared with those Gu worms and ghost boys in the Western Regions, even mountain tigers are nothing, and they can't be called wild monsters at all.

I thought silently, and when I walked up to the tiger's corpse and stretched out my hand to drag it aside, I just grabbed one of his hind legs, but when I looked up, I saw that one of its long tails was gone, and the back of the hip was bloody, revealing only a small piece of white tiger tail bones.

I was wondering, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in front of me, and I heard one of them laughing loudly: "I have been chasing this beast for a long time, but I have never thought of making a wedding dress for others." ”

I stopped in my hand, turned my head to look, and saw a bald man with a wolf's back flashing through the grass. The man was dressed in soft armor, bare-chested, with a long scar on one side of his head, and a knife-eyed and eagle-nosed man, and a rather fierce appearance. In both hands he carried a red crossbow, which was very narrow on both sides, but extremely long at the front and back, four feet, and twice as large as a normal crossbow.

After he jumped out of the grass, four more sturdy men rushed from the grass behind him, but without exception they were dressed in soft armor, carrying ropes and burdens, and holding knives, guns, swords, and sticks in their hands, as if they were several mercenaries.

Several people hurried to the front, the bald man turned his head to look at the corpse of the mountain tiger on the ground, looked me up and down a few times when he raised his head, stretched out his finger and pointed at the mountain tiger, and then pointed at me, and said with a smile: "The strong man is really a good skill, this mountain tiger was killed by you, and we will not treat you badly. ”

Sure enough, a few mercenaries. Lotus knot heart to heart is the words of the road, aimed at the rivers and lakes to treat each other with courtesy, when I and the hundred miles of darts also often shouted such a sentence, darts to a smooth way, after the dart business became bigger, I didn't shout much, are He Yun and a few of their dart masters called the road. I arched my hand at him, and said with the same smile: "This brother, I don't know that this mountain tiger is your prey, please don't blame you for killing it by mistake, you can keep the tiger skin." ”

The bald man let out a light "huh" and said, "It turns out that you are also from Middle-earth, and you will be fortunate to meet you." ”

Probably he thinks I'm from the tribes of the Western Regions, so it's no wonder he points fingers at me. I walked all the way, I was still wearing animal skin clothes, and the paint on my face had not been smeared. I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Exactly." Fortunately. ”

The man said: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's surname, why did you come here alone?"

I said: "Chasing the shadow below, come to the Western Regions to try your luck, see if you can find some good flowers and plants to go back, and make some money." Saying this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, getting closer and closer to Kunlun Mountain, I didn't dare to reveal my real name.

The man nodded, but he didn't think much about it, just smiled: "In Xia Tang Niu, it belongs to the Nine Star Corps, and these four are my brothers." He approached the carcass of the tiger, stretched out his hand and groped for a while on the fur of the tiger's body, and said, "This is the finest fur, very thick." You're also refreshed, since you don't want tiger skins, and our brothers don't fake it, how about you eat this tiger meat with us tonight?"
