Winter turned to spring, the Jiehe River thawed, and rushed to the south again, but the city of Broken Stream, less than a mile away, showed no signs of melting, and the ice became thicker.

On the day when the river was flowing, Mu Lie spent his nineteenth birthday alone, the gift was to cut three more wooden stakes than usual, he insisted on practicing the knife, never had a day off, the knife he brought at the beginning was already unusable, fortunately, there was no shortage of weapons near the Broken Flow City, the holy rune soldiers were gone, but the materials were left, and all kinds of talisman swords were at his disposal.

At dusk, he walked to the bridge—even the bridge had been built by the Saint Rune Army, and was already a little shaky due to the lack of maintenance of the talisman—and looked to the other side, and there was a hint of green in the wilderness, and the bridge was separated by two seasons and two worlds, which made him deeply appreciate the power of magic.

Not far from the bridge, there are more powerful spells to show their power, the ancestor tower towers by the river, whenever the sun sets, when the angle of the sun is right, a large number of flowing talisman patterns will appear on the tower, occasionally there will be a beam of light or a puff of smoke rising into the sky, often accompanied by a few tremors, sometimes there are big black birds hovering at the top of the tower, such as dark clouds covering the sun, the entire Broken Flow City seems to be darkened.

Mu Lie was used to seeing such a scene, and he still felt thrilling.

There was a greeting from afar, and Mu Lie turned his head to look, and it turned out to be Yin Bushen and his ground monkeys, stacked in a long strip, stepping on a piece of ice that had not yet melted and floating from upstream.

"Spring returns to the earth, the sunset shines obliquely, silly boy, are you feeling sad spring when you guard the lonely bridge?" Yin Bushen jumped and jumped onto the shore, and none of the ground monkeys on his body fell.

Mu Lie laughed a few times, he was very happy to see this demon, Broken Flow City was too quiet, except for the sound of running water and the wind, almost no one spoke. The west of the city and the east of the city do not interact with each other, even Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin, who live in the same ancestor tower, rarely make a sound.

Only Yin Bu loves to chat, he doesn't live in Broken Flow City, and he often walks away with the monkeys for four or five days, and when he comes back, he tells the story of what he has seen outside. Listening to his meaning, it seems to be thousands of miles away.

"Where have you come from?" asked Mu Lie aloud.

"I went to the South China Sea and picked a few pearls from the sea. ”

Mu Lie smiled and said nothing, he had never been to the sea, but he knew that it was extremely far away from Broken Flow City, Yin Bushen might be bragging, or maybe there was really such a spell, he couldn't judge.

"Don't you believe it? Hey, mortal. I can't explain it to you. Yin Bushen pinched his fingers and counted for a while, "Today is March, right?"

"The fourth day of March. "Mu Lie counts the days every day.

"It's your birthday, isn't it?"

Mu Lie's eyes widened, "How do you know?"

"It's called omniscience—it's actually you talking in your dreams, and the monkeys hear it. ”

Mu Lie was skeptical, "Do they come into the city at night? I've never heard them hear." ”

"What can you hear? On the night the Spirit King arrived, the sky almost fell apart in Broken Flow City, and you were sleeping, but did you hear a sound?"

Mu Lie shook his head embarrassedly. He didn't really notice it at the time and woke up the next day. It was a surprise to see two large gaps in the city wall.

"Well, I'll give you a gift. ”

Mu Lie's face turned red all of a sudden, and he waved his hands, "No, no, it's just a birthday." And...... And ......"

"And you're human, I'm a demon, and you don't want anything from me. ”

Mu Lie's face turned even redder, and he said solemnly: "I myself may have demon blood, how can I underestimate you......?" No one ever gave me a birthday present. ”

"Where's your father?"

Mu Lie scratched his head. "They would make me a good meal, but there would be no gifts. ”

"I'll cook a few dishes, all of which are Lao Jun's favorite food, and they definitely don't suit your taste...... Do you like gold and silver jewelry?"

Mu Lie shook his head, "I really don't need to." ”

"In these days, gold and silver jewelry are not as good as swords, guns, and halberds. Do you want to learn spells?"

Mu Lie was stunned, he could see the miracle of spells every day in Broken Flow City, it was impossible to be tempted at all, after thinking for a while, he shook his head again, "Thank you, but I heard that if you want to learn a high level of magic, you must give up your desires, I can't do it." ”

Yin Bushen shrugged, shook off the ground monkey on his body, walked in front of Mu Lie, and said with a smile: "To be honest, with your roots, it is indeed too difficult to learn spells, and if you can't become a Taoist, it's only a second- or third-rate cultivator." Do you want to learn how to swordsmanship?"

"You can also use swordsmanship?" Mu Lie was a little surprised, he thought that a sorcerer would never need a sword.

"The road is all about walking step by step. Yin Bushen stretched out his hand and snatched the knife from Mu Lie's hand, took a few steps back and made a few moves, and the ground monkeys surrounded him and imitated and barked to help the momentum.

Mu Lie's eyes widened and widened, Yin Bushen's sword technique was really much stronger than him, especially Yin Bushen's mana, every move and style he could learn.

Mu Lie didn't hesitate anymore, and said loudly: "I learn, I will learn this!"

Yin Bu stopped his hand and said with a smile: "It turns out that I don't want a gift, but I must give a gift that is pleasing to my heart, come with me." ”

Yin Bushen strode towards the north of the city, and Mu Lie was no longer polite, and followed closely.

The ice and snow three miles north of the city have melted, at the foot of a small mountain, Yin Bushen danced the knife again, this time the move was complete, Mu Lie was itchy to see, and suddenly saw a knife appear in front of him, it turned out that several monkeys found a lot of swords, each monkey was divided into one, and Mu Lie also had a share.

"See clearly. Yin Bushen practiced for the second time, slowed down his movements, and explained the difference between the trick and the virtual and the real in every subtlety.

Mu Lie's comprehension of learning knives is excellent, and he almost doesn't need to say it a second time.

After four or five times, Mu Lie had learned almost the same, Yin Bushen sat on a stone at the bottom of the mountain, and threw away the knife, "Master led the door, the cultivation is personal, I am finished teaching, the rest is up to you, practice diligently, use more, and in the end, when Zuo Liuying kills you, maybe you will have time to blink your eyes." ”

Mu Lie didn't care about sarcasm, he just felt that the knife technique was exquisite, quite in line with his own wishes, threw down the knife, and knelt down to Yin Bushen, "You teach me the knife technique, I will worship you as a teacher." ”

Yin Bushen turned his head behind Mu Lie, "I won't accept you as an apprentice, if you really want to challenge Zuo Liuying, won't I be implicated?"

Mu Lie got up. "It's not just in case, I'm definitely going to challenge Zuo Liuying. I understand what you mean, I don't worship you as a teacher, but I will remember your kindness. ”

"I can't remember for long. Yin Bushen walked towards Broken Flow City, suddenly turned around, and looked at the top of the mountain. "What kind of person? Sneaky, like a Taoist priest. ”

A Taoist priest really flew down from the top of the mountain, his beard was white, and his appearance was majestic, and after he landed, he circled around Mu Lie, and then looked at Yin Bushen coldly, "You are a half-demon Yin Bushen." ”

"You are Pangshan Taoist Shen Jixian. ”

The ground monkeys gathered around.

"Pang Shan? I've heard of Pang Shan. Mu Lie said.

"Pang Shan is gone. Shen Jixian said sharply, his eyes were still staring at Yin Bushen, but his words were to Mu Lie: "You are not allowed to learn this set of sword techniques." ”

"Why?" asked Mu Lie in surprise. The intimacy with Pang Shan is gone.

Shen Jixian no longer ignored Mu Lie, and said to Yin Bushen: "This is the Five Elements Sword Technique of the Dao System, and it will not be passed on by non-Dao disciples. Who taught you? Mu Xingqiu, Yang Qingyin, or Qin Lingshuang?"

Yin Bushen laughed, "Pang Shan has long perished, the Dao system has been torn apart, and death is not far away, you still care about a set of sword techniques? This sword technique can only be learned by disciples who don't have Ning Dan, right?"

"The Taoist system is still there, and the rules of the Taoist system are there. Shen Ji first looked at the Patriarch Pagoda in the east of the city.

"Okay. You go and enforce the rules of the Taoist system, Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin are all in the tower. Oh. By the way, you can't beat them. ”

Shen Jixian's expression became colder and colder, and Yin Bushen suddenly remembered something, "You were also there when you guarded Broken Flow City, right?" How did you feel when you saw that the little Taoist priest was a hundred times more powerful than you?"

"Rules are rules. I can't implement it, so naturally someone else will do it. ”

"Shi Hanyuan, too weak, no. Could it be that your Hongshan Taoist group has taken refuge in Kunzhuan?"

Mu Lie felt embarrassed and interjected: "If I don't practice the sword technique, it's ......"

"You have to practice, you have to practice now. "Yin Bushen's temper has been relatively big recently. "The Dao Tong can't even protect the lives of mortals, what qualifications do you have? Kun Chao is the Dao Tong Patriarch, he destroyed the world, and the sin has to be counted on all the Daoists, if you don't apologize, forget it, and you still want to talk about the rules, it's really ridiculous. ”

"We will correct the mistakes made by the Dao Order. Shen Jixian's eyes looked at the large mirror in the east of the city, and muttered, "There is a Taoist priest here." ”

"Haha, isn't the Taoist priest yourself?" Yin Bushen glared at Mu Lie, "Why don't you practice swords?"

Mu Lie immediately danced the knife, but his heart was not steady, and his eyes always looked at the white-haired Taoist priest.

"I'm just a Taoist disciple now, not a real Taoist. Shen Jixian looked left and right, "You two are not worth my help, but the rules of Taoism will eventually be restored with this world - I advise you to be careful." ”

"If the Dao system is restored, will you let us demon clans go? No, you still have to kill demons and demons, so what do I have to be careful?" Yin Bushen spread his hands, indicating that he was fearless.

Shen Jixian had a little impression of Yin Bushen, and couldn't help but wonder, when did this little demon beside Mu Xingqiu and Yi Shijun become unafraid of heaven and earth? He was proud of his identity and didn't want to argue, so he snorted and said to himself: "Could it be Qin Lingshuang?" But she is just a soul, and even her body is not her own...... How is this possible?"

"Hey, old Dao, what are you muttering? Although Daoist Qin only has a true illusion body, her cultivation is much deeper than yours, if there is anyone in the world who can be called a real Taoist, I will only choose her. Yin Bushen still remembered what Yang Qingyin had said, and he had a very high opinion of Qin Lingshuang.

"The real Taoist priest......" Shen Jixian pondered for a while, and suddenly asked, "Does she have the heart of a Taoist priest?"

"Then you don't need to ask. As a witness to that fight, Yin Bushen can say this sentence confidently, "The love calamity has passed, the obsession is gone, and Daoist Qin has the heart of the only Taoist priest in this world." ”

Shen Jixian didn't believe in the demon clan, but he had to believe that his eyes, the magic light emitted by the big bright mirror, was the clearest evidence.

"Should the thirty-ninth patriarch really be on her?" Shen Jixian was both confused and excited.

(I originally wanted to write two chapters, and the time was still enough, but my body couldn't hold on, so I could only post one chapter today, sorry.) (To be continued......)
