The conversation with Lu Jiuzhou just now had a great impact on him in his heart. Although he was righteous and awe-inspiring when he spoke to Lu Kyushu, at this moment, when he was alone, he still couldn't help but ask himself: Am I really right?

The little jade sword was in the neckline, and there was a hint of coolness coming from its stick.

The sky, the ancient road, the young man full of thoughts, suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky.

It was blue, high above, and it looked so unattainable.

Xu Chen looked at it in a daze, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, his brows furrowed together, low, facing the sky, as if he was also looking at someone's deep heart, and said softly:

"What do people live for?"

If you are born in troubled times, you will either kill or be killed.

Along the way, Xu Chenfeng slept in the open air, although there was not much silver on his body, but when he was hungry, he caught some wild birds and hares in the wild, and when he was sleepy, he found a tree to deal with for a night.

In fact, if he catches the little jade sword, that is, the phantom, he will naturally be much faster when he walks in the sky, but somehow, he doesn't have such a plan, he always feels bored, and there are always those troubles in his heart, so he would rather walk slowly, hoping to figure out the questions in his heart.

However, if it comes to this, the question on Xu Chen's mind at the moment, how can a young man like him think about it, let him think about it, he always feels that the teacher's past teachings are naturally extremely sacred, and he is born like this, and he will never be wrong, but when he thinks about what Lu Jiuzhou said, it seems that there is some truth in it, and he can't choose, he is really confused.

If it were someone else, it might have been so entangled.

It's just that only Xu Chen, who is more stubborn than anyone in his bones, encountered this problem that almost completely challenged his previous beliefs, so he wanted to think about it and come up with an understanding.

In this way, he buried his head in thought, and walked for three whole days, but he still couldn't think of a reason.

On this day, Xu Chen suddenly felt that there were more and more pedestrians on the road, and he stared ahead, in front of the ancient road, there was a small town, although the scale was not large, but it may be on this ancient road, but there were a lot of people.

Xu Chen was happy in his heart, but he also forgot his troubles for the time being, there were few people on the road in the past three days, and seeing such a small town at this time also made people feel refreshed.

When I got closer, I saw a stone tablet standing on the side of the road at the entrance of the town, and the words "Xiaomiao Town" were engraved on it, which was the name of the town.

Xu Chen walked in, only to hear the sound of people gradually getting louder, the ancient road from this town straight through, there are houses and eaves on the side of the road, there are also some shops, but more, it is some vendors who set up stalls directly on both sides of the road, walking along the street, the sound of selling is endless, it is really a picture of the world.

Xu Chen walked in the crowd, the corners of his mouth gradually showed some smiles, when he was still living in Caomiao Village when he was young, he vaguely remembered that it was also like this, the fireworks in the world, compared to the cultivation years on Qingyun Mountain, seemed to have a different taste in his heart.

"Bell ......"

Just when Xu Chen was still immersed in the memories of the past, suddenly there was an earth-shattering gong sound on the street in front of him, which startled him, and then he saw the surrounding townspeople speeding up their pace and running forward, and occasionally heard a few people talking while walking: "Let's go, the mayor has summoned to speak." ”

"I think that's what happened, right?"

"Yes, I heard that the stewards discussed it all night, I wonder if there is a way to come out?"

"I hope there is a way, otherwise I really can't live this day!"

Xu Chen heard it in his ears, and his curiosity was aroused, so he also walked forward with the flow of people. I saw that the surrounding crowds had gathered, and after a short time, two or three hundred people surrounded themselves on the edge of a stone platform in the center of the town.

Xu Chen stood in the crowd, looked at the middle, and saw that the stone platform was more than half a person high, and it looked quite smooth, and there were three people standing on it, two old and one young, thinking that it was the person in charge who I had just heard.

Seeing that the people were almost coming, the eldest of the three people on the stone platform stood up and beckoned to the townspeople below, and the townspeople gradually quieted down.

When it was completely quiet, the old man looked around, his tone was heavy, and said, "Fellow villagers, I hope you will also know what is going on today.

Since three months ago, the demon lived in the 'Ancient Flame Cave' ten miles outside the town, and since then he has been harassing the town, and in the last month, it has intensified, coming night and night, plundering countless cattle, sheep and poultry, and what's more, three days ago, the Wang family father and son resisted it for the last cow in the family, and they were ...... Alas, he died at the hands of that demon. ”

There was a sigh among the surrounding townspeople, and a few people even scolded loudly. Xu Chen understood most of it in his heart, but he still didn't know what that demon was.

At this time, I only heard the mayor of the town say again: "The old man, as the mayor of the town, is really ashamed that he can't keep the town safe." After discussing with the other two last night, I thought that since this demon was extraordinary, it was beyond the reach of ordinary people such as me, so it was better to post a notice and invite some cultivators to come back to collect the demons, and as for the cost, I would like to ask for your full support. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the townspeople in the audience said: "What the mayor said is reasonable, he should invite the cultivators to come back and catch the demons." ”

"If you continue like this, I'm afraid that everyone will be eaten by that demon, do you still care about that little money?"

"Yes, yes......"

The three people on the stage saw that most of the townspeople agreed, and the mayor also seemed to be relieved, and said, "In that case, I also asked Xiucai to write a notice last night, so I will post it." After speaking, he nodded to the young man who looked like Xiucai, and Xiucai answered, took out a piece of white paper from his arms, with some handwriting on it, walked down the stone platform, walked to a brick wall standing next to him, and pasted it.

The townspeople immediately rushed over, and Xu Chen also followed to take a look, only to see that the paper read:

Now there is a demon nine-tailed demon fox, living in the ancient flame cave of ten miles outside the town, day and night, harassing the town, robbing poultry, cattle and sheep, more hurtful people, but its demon law is powerful, today there is a special person to remove the harm for the people, Xiaochi Town is willing to thank it with five hundred taels of silver.

Xu Chen saw that the person who had made the payment was a citizen of Xiaochi Town, and listened to the surrounding residents agree. He hesitated for a moment, he had the intention to do this good deed, but when he thought of the words of the townsman and the mayor just now, this demon was afraid that it was very tight, his mana was low, and it was a trivial matter that he couldn't beat the monster, and he accidentally lost his life, and even lost the face of the teacher, which he couldn't afford.

He was hesitating, when he heard a sudden uproar among the townspeople around him, and he looked up, and was taken aback, only to see a huge man coming from outside, and everywhere he went, with a flick of his hand, the crowd parted like water.

When the giant man got closer, Xu Chen saw it clearly, and saw that this person didn't look very old, at most about twenty, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face and wide ears, matching his amazing figure, a mighty aura came to him.

Among the crowd, the tallest one was only up to his shoulder, and he really stood out from the crowd.

I saw him stride to the wall, read the notice carefully, and without saying a word, he actually ripped it off.

There was an exclamation from the crowd, and the giant man turned around and glanced at the people around him, and the townspeople immediately fell silent. I only heard the voice of the giant man's urn and said angrily: "I am a disciple of the Jade Xuanmen, and I was ordered by the master to come out and ask my uncle to go home. ”

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, the so-called Jade Xuanmen, also known as the so-called uncle, could it be the old man who died in the Heavenly Volcano?

The people around him were staring at him, and at this time, the mayor and others also rushed over, and walked up to this giant man who claimed to be called Shishi, and the townspeople said anxiously: "This ...... Strongman, that demon is very powerful, no, cough cough, it's not that you have a lot of strength, if you don't do it, your life is in danger, you have to think about it?"

The giant man nodded, glanced at the mayor, and said, "Don't you believe me?"

The mayor of the town was stared at by him, and he didn't feel a little hairy in his heart, so he said stiffly: "No, no, I just want to remind you." ”

But he said in his heart, "This guy is as scary as that demon." ”

The giant man turned his head to look around, and after a moment, his eyes fell on the brick wall where the notice was posted.

"Are you useful for this wall?"

The mayor was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's useless on weekdays, it's just a notice." ”

The giant man called the stone smiled, and suddenly shouted: "Get out of the way." ”

The sound was like thunder, and Xu Chen's ears were actually buzzing, not to mention the other townspeople, all of them lost color on their faces, and in a moment, a large open space was opened in the field, and only the giant man stood in the middle.

I saw him frowning and crossing, suddenly stomping his right foot on the ground, sealing with one hand, reciting a short mantra in a low voice, and shouting:

"Today, let me show you what kind of place the Jade Xuanmen is and who the people of the Jade Xuanmen are. ”
