Chapter 3 Young Jiang Jianqiu

Middle-earth is a vast country with a long history. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info ancient books have clouds: "magnificent, peaceful." Hence the name "Middle-earth". The whole continent of Central Continent, spanning millions of miles away, the east is close to the boundless East China Sea, the sea is perennial clouds and mist rolling, the storm is raging, occasionally when the storm stops, some people have seen the five-clawed golden dragon wandering between the sea of clouds, spreading clouds and rain; the north of Central Continent is an endless glacier of ten thousand years, covered with snow all the year round, it is said that under the glacier since ancient times has been sealed with a great evil thing, near the ominous; the west is the boundless grassland, legend has it that there is a rainbow bridge that leads directly to the sky at the end of the grassland, those who step on this bridge can go straight to the sky and become immortals, but no one has really found the rainbow bridge for thousands of years; south of Zhongzhou, there are endless mountains with rolling mountains, fierce beasts in the mountains are dormant, and giant trees are towering to the sky, perennial miasma, mostly dangerous places.

The land of Zhongzhou is now divided into seven kingdoms and two cities, and the seven kingdoms are Shang, Liang, Qi, Chu, Han, Yan, and Wu. The two cities are Fengming City and Chaoge City, with their own profound heritage and long history, with the power of a city alone independent of the surrounding countries, self-contained.

Since ancient times, there have been many immortal cultivators in Zhongzhou, who have cultivated all day long with their own strength, hoping that one day they will be able to peek into the heavens and become immortals. Throughout the ages, although I have not heard of any people who have become immortals and become saints, but the times have changed, and batches of people who have attained the Tao have emerged, who have either moved mountains and reclaimed the sea, or established mountains and established schools, all of which have left a deep mark in their respective histories.

Thirty years ago, the entire land of Middle-earth was plunged into an endless disaster of demon tides, leaving only white bones in the land where the beasts passed, and the surviving people could only retreat into the city, relying on the tall walls to resist the sharp teeth of the demon beasts. At the time of crisis, a group of monks who had reached the heavens stepped forward, exerted their earth-shattering powers, stood above the clouds, urged the sword of the magic weapon in the sky, and forcibly killed wave after wave of demon tides, and finally made an agreement with the demons who ruled the beast sea, so that the demon tide receded, and won the hard-won era of peace for the human race.

Throughout the history of Middle-earth, it can be said that it is inseparable from monks, and now in the seven countries of Middle-earth, among the armies of various countries and even above the court, there is no shortage of monks with advanced Taoism. There are even royal families themselves that have been passed down from generation to generation. And among the people, there are many sects of all kinds, and the disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect who are equipped with spirit swords can often be seen walking around, and occasionally you can see the light of the sky flashing.

Jiang Jianqiu is eighteen years old this year, and he is a disciple of the Huaishan Sect, an unknown small sect in the Liang Kingdom. His family has had an accident since he was a child, his parents died, and he was met by Ling Nanzi, the head of the Huaishan faction who was passing by, and took him back to the door to embark on the road of cultivation. Now he and his sister travel according to the order of their master, increase their knowledge in the world, and hone their strength and ambition.

Today, the two of them were in a hurry in the quiet of the night and inadvertently bumped into the tragedy of Sanhuai Village. They rushed to the scene and found that the wolves had surrounded the villagers. Jiang Jianqiu asked his junior sister to make a noise to attract the attention of the wolves after going to the wolves, and he took the opportunity to break into the center of the field in one fell swoop, separating the wolves from the villagers, so as to avoid the villagers being hurt by the wolves in the melee.

Before appearing, Jiang Jianqiu specially put up the spirit sword and hid it behind him, pretending to be bare-handed, and deceived the giant wolf who was the leader, so that he could hit the fierce wolf with a sword by surprise. After that, Edgeworth shone brightly, and once again shocked the group of demon wolves, so that these ferocious demon beasts did not dare to step forward for a while, and the field was temporarily deadlocked. However, although his actions seemed to be understated, after all, these were more than thirty demon beasts, and if they really fought, it would not necessarily be a simple errand.

Jiang Jianqiu stood in the center of the field, raised his eyes and looked around, and the look on his face was not as relaxed as it was at the beginning. Although he slashed the leading giant wolf with a sword and used the sword light to disperse the fighting spirit of the wolves, none of the demon wolves in front of him flinched and fled, which made him a little uneasy.

"Run, run, run, if so many wolf cubs rush up, my few taels of meat are not enough for you!" Jiang Jianqiu stood there and whispered, looking from a distance, he didn't know what kind of spell he was chanting.

In fact, Jiang Jianqiu is now just a beginner cultivator of the Jade Mansion Realm, and he has just opened up the Qi Sea Dantian, and he can't cast any powerful spells. In the face of demon beasts, the basic function is to fight close to the body, although he can use the spirit sword to make his sword extremely sharp, but so many demon wolves in front of him cannot be easily solved with a sword slash.

Jiang Jianqiu stood in place, and suddenly felt that he was very similar to the old village chief just now, standing alone in front of a group of demon wolves, but the old man was holding a torch, and he was holding a sword that would shine.

The black-haired fierce wolf was seriously injured, but it only stimulated its ferocity even more, it was just a Terran monk! It raised its head and let out a terrible wolf howl, and the surrounding wolves who couldn't help but retreat seemed to have received some order, and suddenly the momentum of collapse disappeared, and they all howled and rushed towards Jiang Jianqiu in the center of the field. It seems that this group of demon wolves is going to rely on their large number and fight with the kid in front of them.

"Hey, hey, it's not the work of people in the rivers and lakes to fight more and less!" Jiang Jianqiu clenched his sword, and couldn't help but talk a little nonsense in a hurry. Not to mention that these demon wolves can't understand what he says at all, and even if they do, these demon wolves are not "people" in the rivers and lakes.

It was too late, and in the blink of an eye, a wolf in front of him had already rushed in front of him, bowed and pounced on him. The demon wolf jumped in mid-air, and suddenly found that Jiang Jianqiu in front of him had disappeared, and just before it came back to its senses, the sword light above its head flashed, and Jiang Jianqiu took advantage of the downward momentum of the spirit sword to slash down, splitting the wolf into two pieces almost from head to tail. Before he could catch his breath when his feet landed, another wolf on the left rushed up again, Jiang Jianqiu couldn't adjust his posture to meet the attack with his sword, so he had to lean over and dodge the wolf's pounce. Then he stabbed out his long sword, piercing a wolf that was rushing from the head to the tail, but although he killed the wolf demon, his sword also fell into the wolf corpse, and before he could pull out the sword, another wolf rushed out on the right side, Jiang Jianqiu had to fly up and kick the wolf away first.

The battle in the arena was rapid and fierce, and dozens of demon wolves kept running around Jiang Jianqiu and pounced. The speed and strength of the demon wolves were much stronger than those of ordinary beasts, and the eyes of the villagers behind could barely keep up with the movements of these demon wolves, only to see a large black shadow scurrying back and forth between the fields.

In the face of so many demon beasts, Jiang Jianqiu seemed to be at ease, his body was even faster than that of the demon wolf, flashing and moving in the shadow of the wolf, and repeatedly turning danger into danger. And his movements are crisp and neat, and he never drags mud and water between slashes and stabs, and it can be seen that he is a person who has been fighting for a long time.

A moment later, there were more than a dozen bloody wolf corpses on the ground. Jiang Jianqiu's breathing also became a little heavy, and most of his body was already stained red with blood at the moment, of course, it was all wolf blood. Although he was not injured, the hand holding the sword felt a little numb, and the continuous all-out slashing was also a great drain on him, and there were more than twenty demon wolves in front of him, scattered around him, and his pressure did not weaken at all. The key thing is that there is also a black-haired fierce wolf on the side, and he has not made a move. Jiang Jianqiu couldn't help grinning, and said in his heart, Senior Sister, if you delay it for a while, I'm afraid that I will become the supper of this group of demon wolves.

The black-haired fierce wolf roared, the wolves suddenly changed their strategy, and several of them formed a group to pounce on Jiang Jianqiu, Jiang Jianqiu jumped up, dodged the first group's flutter, and the sword flew another demon wolf, but as soon as he landed, three more demon wolves pounced, Jiang Jianqiu went to the stall with a horizontal sword, but he didn't think that the three wolves together were powerful and heavy, and he fell to the ground at once. Jiang Jianqiu stabbed a demon wolf to death with his backhand, raised his hand to grab the neck of the other wolf, and threw it out, but before he could stand up, several wolves pounced, Jiang Jianqiu had to lie on the ground and hold the sword horizontally in front of him, blocking several bloody mouths in front of him.

didn't give Jiang Jianqiu a chance to get up, and in an instant, a demon wolf came over and bit his right foot, fortunately, the Qingyun shoes worn by Jiang Jianqiu were sewn from the skin of the demon beast, and the shoes were unusually strong, and the demon wolf bit down hard, but he didn't bite through. But despite this, Jiang Jianqiu still felt a pain in his feet, and he grinned and screamed: "Oh! Senior sister, come and help, if you don't come out, your senior brother will be disfigured by these beasts today!"

"Stagnant Spirit!"

Almost at the same time as Jiang Jianqiu's shout, a crisp woman's voice suddenly came out of the darkness. The demon wolves running in the field suddenly shook their bodies, and the air around the square suddenly seemed to change, suddenly becoming thick and solid, and moving in it was like moving forward in the water, and it was impossible to rush back and forth as fast as before. The black-haired wolf was startled, the enemy still had accomplices! Although it didn't know what the other party was doing, it could clearly feel that this person hiding in the shadows was also a troublesome guy!

The black-haired fierce wolf immediately rushed towards Jiang Jianqiu, who fell to the ground, and it wanted to bite the person in front of him to death before the enemy's help arrived! It ran halfway and suddenly a long black shadow flickered in front of it, and before the fierce wolf could see what it was, it was hit the face. "Smack!" a long whip slammed into the wolf's right eye. The wolf howled and staggered to the side. The long whip like a giant snake made a turn in the air, and flew towards Jiang Jianqiu's side, crackling a few times, and all the demon wolves on his body were swept away.

As the whip receded, a delicate girl walked out of the darkness. The girl was dressed in a black suit, her hair was combed and her hair was in a bun, her expression was cold, and she held a long dark red whip inlaid with gold wire in her hand, and said as she walked: "I don't think they are interested in your face, but they probably want to tear your mouth apart." The girl's voice was clear and calm, and she didn't seem to be nervous at all in the face of so many demon beasts, and walked slowly, as if she was walking casually in her own yard

Jiang Jianqiu turned over and stood up from the ground, pouted and said, "Hey, I've been fighting with this group of brutes here for most of the day, and you're just watching the excitement outside and talking about the cool air." As he spoke, he roamed around the field with his sword in his hand. Assassinate those demon wolves who are like "swimming" in the water one by one, like a string of sugar gourds, and a sword down is a hole that is transparent before and after. In a moment, more than a dozen demon wolves were killed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining demon wolves turned around and wanted to escape, but they were trapped in the formation, struggling to move, and exerted their desperate strength, and their bodies were just moving forward inch by inch. From a distance, more than a dozen demon wolves trembled and crawled around on the ground, which was a bit ridiculous.

This girl is Jiang Jianqiu's younger sister, and she is also a member of the Huaishan faction, named Ling Shengxue. She and Jiang Jianqiu have known each other since childhood, and they have always been partners every time they travel abroad in the past two years. Ling Shengxue and Jiang Jianqiu have been partners for many years, and they know that although this senior brother usually looks unreliable, and his realm is only the first level of the Jade Mansion Realm, if it comes to actual combat ability, the other senior brothers in the same period are afraid that no one can beat him. And Jiang Jianqiu also has some means as hole cards, although these demon wolves are vicious, they may not be able to hurt him. That's why Ling Shengxue appeared so leisurely and coolly. At this moment, she carried the golden silk red whip, and wherever the whip shadow went, the demon wolves all broke their skin and bones, and they were killed instantly. With the cooperation of the two people, they killed the demon wolf in the field in a matter of moments.

"Oops!" Jiang Jianqiu suddenly shouted, looked around and said, "Oh no, I didn't pay attention to the biggest one that seems to have run away!"

Ling Shengxue put away the long whip in his hand and said, "I deliberately let it go, let's go and settle the villagers first, and then make plans." ”

Jiang Jianqiu looked at his junior sister with his mouth open, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he held back his words, closed his mouth and walked towards the villagers with her. He knew that his junior sister was thoughtful, and since she let go of the wolf head, she must have her own plans.

The two walked in front of the villagers, and at this moment, the thirty-odd people in the village had all knelt on the ground under the leadership of the village chief, and kept muttering about thanking the immortals and the like. Jiang Jianqiu helped the village chief up and said loudly: "The wolves have dispersed, everyone get up." My sister and I are disciples of the Huaishan faction, and we traveled down the mountain on the orders of our master. Passing by here, you encounter a demon wolf making trouble, so you should naturally come to the rescue. Jiang Jianqiu's expression darkened when he said this, "It's a pity that the two of us arrived a little late, and you don't have to be too sad, as the so-called life and death are fate." ”

The villagers stood up one after another, listened to Jiang Jianqiu's words, and remembered the bloody scene before, and many people couldn't help but shed tears. Ling Shengxue looked at this group of people lightly on the side, and suddenly said, "When Senior Brother was entangled with the wolves just now, I roughly checked around the village, and there should be nothing left left. I noticed something odd about it, though. ”

Ling Shengxue paused, pondered for a moment, and then continued: "I checked around, and I didn't find a single child's body, so I think the demon wolf should have captured all the children in the village. ”

The villagers heard a commotion, and many people heard that their child was not dead, and they couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope, but when they thought that the child had been caught by the demon wolf and taken to the mountains, how could they be saved?

Ling Shengxue continued: "I put incense thread on that wolf's head before, and after a while, Senior Brother and I have our own way to track down its lair. We will try to save all the children who have been robbed in the village. Village chief, you will now lead the villagers to hold out in the square until dawn, and there is a formation I have laid around this square, which has some suppressive effect on the demon beasts. Immediately after dawn, send someone to the nearest Meicheng to report to the governor's office, and ask the government to send someone to protect you, and we will return as soon as possible after rescuing the child. ”

After hearing this, everyone seemed to finally see a glimmer of light in the darkness, and many people knelt down again to thank the immortals for their help. Jiang Jianqiu, Ling Shengxue, and the two were in a hurry again, helping everyone up. At this time, the eastern horizon was already white, and without further ado, the two of them immediately set off, following the traces left by the incense line, and chased into the dense forest deep in the mountains.
