Ling Yun and Lin Yu'er sat in a teahouse, Ling Yun took a sip of tea and asked Xiao Er on the side for the news: "What happened in this city, why, the market is silent, and the crying is endless?"

"Guest officer, you must have come from outside, although the little one has only been here for a year, but I have also heard of it, this city is quite strange, I heard that in the most corner of the southwest of the city, there is an old witch with high mana, who is fierce and vicious, and has a dish of Gu worms all year round, insects eat insects, and the insect that remains in the end is the most poisonous, and the old witch does not know how many people's lives have been harmed by this worm!"

Ling Yun smiled slightly: "Is it?

"There is something even more amazing," Xiao Er seemed to like to chat with people, and immediately gushed out: "It is rumored that when you meet this old witch, you need to avoid it from a distance, and you must not get close to it, there was once a foreigner who didn't know the situation here, but just passed in front of the old witch's house, and he was unknowingly poisoned, and finally died of pain!"

Lin Yu'er cried out when she heard this "ah", and Ling Yun's face also changed: "How can there be such a person!

"Hmph, all the officials are afraid of death, who doesn't cherish their own lives? So much so that no one dares to approach within two miles of the southwest corner of the city now, and they have been abandoned for several years!"

"Could it be that the woman's cry was because her relatives were killed by a witch?" Ling Yun asked with a serious expression.

"Yes, it was the woman's husband who died, and he went hunting in the mountains yesterday, and heard that he had met the old witch, and this morning the people found his body in the mountains, and now the people are shouting to fight against the old witch, but no one dares to take the lead. Xiao Er sighed lightly, and then looked at Ling Yun with a blank look.

Ling Yun glanced at Xiao Er with a smile: "Then do you know why the witch wanted to kill them? Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and he didn't say anything for a long time, and finally muttered in ink: "Aren't all demons and evil ways like this?" Ling Yun thanked Xiao Er, left a few copper coins, and turned to leave.

Xiao Er looked at their backs and muttered, "Those officials have already posted notices, saying that those who kill the old witch will be rewarded, are these two people from other places rushing to reward them?"

Ling Yun walked to the crowd, people chattered endlessly, but most of them exaggerated about the matter, Ling Yun ignored it, and saw the woman squatting on the ground crying, and the corpse of a middle-aged man beside him, Ling Yun saw his corpse, he also frowned, his face was blue and black, and his body was as thin as firewood, as if a skin wrapped around a skeleton.

Lin Yu'er's face was pale, but she was kind-hearted after all, and she actually stepped forward to comfort the woman, but she tried not to look at the corpse.

Ling Yun frowned, and suddenly saw a notice posted on the wall next to him: Whoever kills the old witch will be rewarded by the parents and officials of this county, and those who dare to take the lead, no matter who they are, can go to the armory to have another weapon in hand.

Ling Yun's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself: "It just so happens that the fine iron sword has entered the hands of that big man, and the Qingcang sword is inconvenient to use, why don't you get a weapon that you can take advantage of?" I naturally don't believe this ghostly theory." ”

Then he glanced at Lin Yu'er, saw that she was comforting the woman, smiled slightly, and went up to the city tower according to the notice, and saw a person who looked like an account, holding a pen, yawning listlessly, and seeing Ling Yun come in, his eyes showed a trace of curiosity.

"Do you want to take the lead?"

"Exactly. Lingyun hugged his fists.

The man's face was happy, and he secretly said in his heart: "It's been several years, and finally a fool has come, and I'm good to make a mistake." On the surface, he looked enthusiastic, Ling Yun suddenly felt weird, he was too pretentious.

The two didn't talk for a few words, and the man led Ling Yun into the armory: "Pick one, but after picking, you must kill the old witch, don't want to run, our people are watching!" After speaking, the man felt that his tone was too strong, so he laughed and said: "Those who dare to come here naturally have confidence and courage, and we all believe in you! It's just that all the weapons here are high-quality, I'm afraid that there are people with bad intentions who want to fish in troubled waters, don't care." ”

Ling Yun had a strange look on his face, he didn't bother to care about this, and walked straight into the armory and carefully selected it.

"Hmm...... It's all sharp, but I'm not very good at weapons, how do I know which one is the hardest?" Ling Yun pondered in his heart for a while.

Suddenly, Ling Yun's eyes flashed, and he held two swords in his hand to mark each other, as long as it was a hard one, it would not leave a trace, of course, Ling Yun was secretly doing this behind that person's back, and that person was too lazy to care so much, he just wanted to send Ling Yun away as soon as possible, so that he could go on a business.

About half an hour later, Ling Yun was holding a jet-black sword in his hand, he had already used this sword to carve with dozens of swords, but none of them could leave a mark on this sword, and a small half of the sword had not been tried.

The man was standing outside the door and almost fell asleep, when he suddenly woke up: "Why are you not well! Aren't you just choosing a sword, go quickly!"

"If you shout at me again, I won't go, why do I always feel that something is wrong!" Ling Yun replied lightly, hitting the man's soft underbelly.

"Hehe, don't rush you, you choose slowly, don't worry, there's nothing wrong. "The man was flattering.

Ling Yun glanced at him with a smile and ignored him.

After another half an hour, the original jet-black sword in Ling Yun's hand had been replaced by another blue-black sword.

"Whew, I'm finally done! This sword is the hardest, and the tip of the sword is very sharp. Ling Yun breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Hey, let's go. Ling Yun woke up the man who was sleeping next to him, who followed behind and didn't know what to underestimate.

After Ling Yun came out, he explained to Lin Yu'er: "You go to the inn first and book two rooms to rest, I'll go out and have something to do." ”

Lin Yu'er blinked: "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, it's just going to meet the witch. "Ahh "Hmm. Then you be careful. ”

Ling Yun was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, comforted Lin Yu'er, and followed the two officers and soldiers to the southwest corner, and suddenly grabbed Ling Yun's arm with one hand: "Little brother, this trip is dangerous, if you want to subdue this old witch, you have to buy my talisman, this talisman is a high mana......"

"Get out!" Ling Yun wanted to say something, but the officers and soldiers next to him had already interrupted the man impatiently.

Ling Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, if this talisman really worked, that old witch would probably have died a long time ago.

After a while, Lin Yu'er changed her clothes and quietly followed behind......

The southwest corner is in the shape of a quarter circle, and the outermost part is a wooden pillar that is a few feet high, hanging a tattered wooden sign, the wooden sign is full of pits, full of cracks, and reads: Integration Area.

Perhaps it was because no one had passed for too long, some of the houses were covered with cobwebs, and the steps in front of the doors were also thick with dust, and there was silence except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

"You go in, we'll wait outside. The two officers and soldiers who came here with Ling Yun said in unison, with a look of jealousy in their eyes.

Ling Yun walked straight in, clutching the blue-black sword in his hand, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

It was so quiet that Ling Yun could even hear his footsteps clearly.

Ling Yun walked through the rows of houses and walked towards the center, and did not encounter any problems along the way.

Suddenly, a piercing fox cry came, low and sharp, which looked quite strange in this environment, and Ling Yun chased after him.

Lin Yu'er hid behind the tree and followed Ling Yun, gently stepping on the fallen leaves, muttering in her heart: "Those two stupid people outside, they don't know if I sneak in." ”

Ling Yun stopped in front of a dilapidated hut, from the hut, the people living in this house must be very poor, the papier-mâché windows, half of the doors are broken, but the difference from other houses is that the second fox cry that Ling Yun heard at this time came from this house.

Ling Yun looked at it for a while, then no longer hesitated and walked in.

Ling Yun had just walked into the house, and suddenly a round white light curtain surrounded him, "whoosh" angry, and then heard a "whoosh" sound, the white light disappeared, and Ling Yun disappeared, at this time it was quiet, as if no one had ever been here before.

After a while, Lin Yu'er also came to the front of the house: "Strange, what about Lingyun and the others......?"

When Ling Yun saw the vision clearly, he suddenly found that he was in mid-air, falling rapidly, the wind whistling in his ears could be heard clearly, Ling Yun was surprised, so he calmed down, tried his best to pick a landing point, and stabilized his center of gravity.

With a "bang", Ling Yun first landed on his feet, quickly bent over and hugged his legs with his arms, pressed his head, rolled on the ground several times in succession, and ran straight out of more than ten meters before stopping.

Ling Yun was also grinning in pain, and it took a long time to recover his strength, fortunately there was thick grass on the ground, otherwise if he fell down, there would really be many fractures on his body.

Ling Yun stretched his limbs, feeling a little sore, but with some strength, he could move, Ling Yun stood up, looked around, and saw at a glance, all of which were borderless grass.

Ling Yun was secretly frightened: "I really don't know why I came here, could it be that the old witch did it?"

Ling Yun's wariness of the old witch became even stronger.

Ling Yun could only walk aimlessly, and suddenly a white fox figure swept in front of him, the speed was amazing, Ling Yun desperately chased after him despite the pain, but he could only keep a distance from him.

After a stick of incense, Ling Yun lay on the grass and gasped for breath, but there was no trace of the fox.
