The monster problem in Huanglong Prefecture is much better than that in neighboring Bailu Prefecture. Especially around Jianqi Mountain, it is very difficult to see monsters. In addition, the swordsmiths on the mountain do not disturb the people. Therefore, as time goes by,

There were more and more people living in this area. After the founding of the Liang Dynasty, a new county was established here, named Linjian County. The meaning is straightforward. It was just close to Jianqi Mountain. This city had the shortest history in the Liang Dynasty.

Nowadays, many sword-making shops have emerged in the counties and cities. They do not make other weapons, but only make swords. Moreover, some of these shops are really good at craftsmanship. It is said that the sword-smiths of several of them have worked in sword making.

Qishan Sword Forging only left Jianqi Mountain to set up its own business due to various reasons. Of course, this statement is even more common in the sword-making shops at the foot of Jianqi Mountain. Almost every swordsmith said that he

I used to forge swords in Jianqi Mountain, but I don't have the leisure to refute rumors in Jianqi Mountain. Therefore, there is a mixed bag of good and bad people here. Whether you can pick out the mistakes here depends entirely on your own ability.

Xu Bai and his wife had arrived in Linjian County three days ago. They visited more than a dozen sword-making shops but could not choose the flying sword they wanted. After that, Xu Bai was a little discouraged. As for Jiang Ying, she was even more discouraged.

It's anxious.

Originally, according to her idea, after getting the demon horn, she could get a flying sword from the Sword Qi Mountain. Let’s not talk about the grade for the time being. Just the flying sword circulated from the Sword Qi Mountain.

It's not bad, but now that my idea has failed, I have to accompany my husband to try my luck here.

The two of them once again stepped into a sword-making shop. After looking at the dozens of flying swords displayed in the shop, Xu Bai couldn't help but sigh and shook his head, and then walked out of the shop with a disappointed look on his face. Jiang Ying couldn't help but feel sad when she saw her husband like this.

He comforted softly: "Husband, let's take another look, maybe we can find a suitable flying sword."

Xu Bai nodded and forced out a smile, "No need to worry."

Although the battle with Chen Chao was not a so-called life and death fight, it was true that his flying sword was broken, but even so, he could not find any reason to blame the other party. It was just that after losing the flying sword, as a sword cultivator

Xu Bai seemed to have broken off his arm, which made him miserable as a swordsman.

But he couldn't express this pain yet, otherwise Jiang Ying, who had always felt guilty, would feel even more guilty.

Jiang Ying asked tentatively: "Otherwise, I will go up the mountain again to ask for the sword. It didn't work last time, maybe it will happen this time."

It's not like Xu Bai has never gone to Jianqi Mountain to seek a sword, but last time, Xu Bai didn't get his favorite flying sword.

Xu Bai sighed and said: "Like last time, there will probably be no changes this time. How can a place like Jianqi Mountain treat casual cultivators like us in a different light?"

Jiang Ying also looked sad and said softly: "But my husband is not worthy of their flying sword."

Xu Bai quickly thought about it. After reaching out and holding the hand of the woman beside him, he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, there will always be a turning point."

Jiang Ying smiled bitterly and nodded. It was really hard to say anything at this moment.

In fact, she was even a little dissatisfied with the young warrior who broke her husband's flying sword.

Xu Bai saw Jiang Ying's thoughts, shook his head and said: "I'll tell you one last time, don't bear any grudge against that Taoist friend. If it weren't for him, I'd be separated from you forever."

Jiang Ying nodded and said softly: "I understand."

Xu Bai said: "Go to the foot of Jianqi Mountain to try your luck."

Jiang Ying nodded and did not refuse.

…

…

Linjian County goes all the way south, and after the sword-making shops gradually disappear, there is a green mountain and green water. There are many villages here built on the mountains, living a life of sunrise and sunrise, but it is strange

Yes, these villagers who have lived here for generations have almost never been infested by monsters.

It's just that in such a remote place, no one digs into this kind of thing.

Pieces of paddy fields surround each family's yellow mud house, making it a very beautiful landscape.

A farmer had just finished working in his paddy field. He came to the nearby waterwheel and washed the mud off his legs with mountain spring water. Then he sat down on the field ridge and began to take out a dry cigarette from his arms and started smoking.

Lingering, as if all the fatigue all over my body disappeared at this moment.

Just as the man was smoking a dry cigarette, he saw a young man slowly approaching the waterwheel on the path leading to the outside of the village.

When the man saw it, he saw an unfamiliar face. He quickly became interested and said hello: "Where are our guests coming from?"

When the young man heard the noise, he stopped next to the waterwheel. He first reached out and held a handful of water and took a few sips. Then he responded with a smile: "Come from afar."

Hearing this ambiguous answer, the man was not angry, but said cheerfully: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen a stranger coming for a long time. Who are you looking for? I know all the dozens of people in this village."

The young man shook his head and just smiled: "I borrowed the road."

Hearing this answer, the man was startled and asked curiously: "Are the guests going through the back mountain?"

The young man had never been to this place before, but after hearing this, he probably confirmed that it was the place he was looking for, so he nodded, "Brother, are you familiar with it? Tell me about it?"

The man glanced at the young man in front of him inexplicably, and then said: "There is an iron chain on the top of the back mountain, and the mountain further inside is only a few hundred feet high, and there is only an iron chain. The guys in the village

No one dares to go up there, but you foreigners, I heard that one is coming every few decades."

At this point, the man let out a puzzled sigh, "I heard from the old people in the village that when you foreigners come here, don't you have to bring swords with you?"

The young man didn't say much, he just stretched out his hand, and a flying sword appeared in the palm of his hand, and then tied it around his waist. Then he smiled and said: "Originally, I thought I was afraid of scaring my brother. Now that I say it, I'm probably overly worried.

"

The man took a puff of cigarette and said nonchalantly: "Although ordinary people like us in the back mountain can't go, there are people coming out there from time to time. They all carry swords and have good tempers. Sometimes they even help us plant rice. People in the village

The old man said that there are immortal masters living there, and if it weren’t for them, our village would never be at peace.”

The young man nodded and smiled: "It looks really good."

The man nodded and smiled: "Actually, you are not bad. It seems that the immortal master who has been here before is not as good-tempered as you. He always has a cold face and is unwilling to say a word."

The young man smiled but said nothing.

The man suddenly asked: "You haven't eaten yet? How about you eat at my house before leaving?"

The young man thought for a moment, then did not refuse. He just smiled and said: "Then I'll trouble you, brother."

The man laughed, stood up, picked up his hoe, and led the young man to his home.

However, along the way, the man talked a lot.

"I've also heard that you foreigners come here to challenge the gods in the mountains. It seems to be called a sword show. Is that the saying?"

Both Android and Apple are available.]

"Wenjian is almost the same as swordsman, that's what I say."

"Hey, I haven't seen the foreigners who came before, but I heard that some people came happily and finally left dejected. Does this mean they have lost?"

"If you win, why don't you go away happily?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose. Who can win or lose in this life? But I've heard that some people go and never come back. I don't know if they just stay there."

"Eighty percent dead."

"Ah, then it's not worth it. Why are you risking your life?"

The young man smiled and said: "Some people like to get into trouble, and you can't stop them."

The man sighed and didn't know what to say. Finally he came to his house and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Mother, take a piece of last year's bacon and kill a chicken. We have guests!"

Listening to her man's shouting, a woman immediately poked her head out, glanced here, laughed immediately, and then turned around to catch chickens in the chicken pen.

After that, the man dragged out a bench from the house, sat on the stone slab in front of his house with the young man, took a puff of the dry cigarette, and then said with a smile: "I heard that there are also children in the village who were raped by the immortal master in the back mountain.

The child I took a fancy to and brought to the mountains happened hundreds of years ago, and I don’t know if the child is still alive.”

The young man thought for a while and said nothing. He just glanced at the child who was secretly looking at him by the door not far away, and then waved to him.

"You bastard, don't act like a girl, come out and call someone!"

The man also noticed his little cub and waved with some annoyance.

The seven or eight-year-old child came out timidly, but when he arrived in front of the young man, he hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.

The young man reached out and touched the child's head, then smiled and took out a piece of candy from his arms. After handing it to the child, he smiled and said: "Brother, if your son is spotted by the gods in the back mountain, you want to take him there."

Are you willing to practice?"

The man was startled, then smiled and said: "If this brat is chosen, it will be his blessing. There is no need to be willing or unwilling."

The young man nodded and smiled without saying a word.

After that, the two of them talked about some trivial things before eating.

The child probably hadn't eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long time, so he ate so much that he didn't care about anything else.

After having had enough wine and food, the man took the young man to the back mountain.

It didn't take long before we arrived at the iron chain on the top of the mountain.

The iron chain leads into the thick fog ahead, with no end in sight, but the height in the middle is definitely more than a hundred feet. If you fall from here, there is only one word of death.

The man pointed at the iron chain and said softly: "I saw those immortal masters coming out of here before, but if it were me, I wouldn't dare to go forward. Those who can get through are all capable."

The young man smiled and said: "If I can come back, come and chat with me again."

The man was stunned and didn't understand what the young man was talking about, but he didn't pay attention to it. He just nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll treat you to a meal."

The young man nodded, then just took a step forward, landed on the chain, and walked forward calmly.

The man stood there and still didn't feel strange. He just took two puffs of dry smoke and said with emotion: "They are all gods."
