Looking at the thatched hut in front of him, Xu Chenglin felt deeply speechless. He thought that Old Man Li's words not to dislike the humble house were polite words. But when he saw the thatched hut in front of him, Xu Chenglin finally knew that this guy was not telling lies.

.

"This guy is really honest about his feelings. He didn't tell any lies at all."

The howling autumn wind in August rolled up the triple thatch on my house. The thatch flew across the river and scattered on the outskirts of the river. The taller ones hung on the treetops, while the lower ones floated around the Shenjiang Col. These five lines of poetry are a true portrayal of the thatched house in front of me today.

.

As if he saw what Xu Chenglin was thinking, Old Man Li smiled awkwardly.

"This... people who practice cultivation don't care about these external things, as long as they stick to their true intentions. Once their cultivation level goes up, they are better than anything else."

What else could he say? Xu Chenglin nodded speechlessly. He opened his mouth and added something.

"Fellow Taoist said yes."

After saying this, Xu Chenglin had the urge to slap himself. It would be better not to say this. Now the two of them seemed a little embarrassed.

After coughing a few times in embarrassment, Old Man Li smiled helplessly. He walked a few steps quickly and opened the wood door of the small courtyard.

Seeing this, Xu Chenglin felt a little funny, shook his head and followed in.

The hut looks simple and dilapidated from the outside, but it is completely different inside. Although the interior of the hut is not as gorgeous, it is very neat. There are four small huts, one is used as a reception hall, and the other is a reception hall.

As a training room, one room was used as a storage room, and the other room was left empty for him to use. In addition, the moment Xu Chenglin raised his feet to enter the room, he noticed traces of formations under his feet.

"It seems that the residence of a practitioner is not that simple."

With this thought in his mind, Xu Chenglin quietly released his spiritual consciousness to investigate. After this investigation, he found that there were two formations underground, one was the spirit gathering formation and the other was the protective formation.

As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. It is dangerous to enter the residence of other monks rashly. Because no one knows how the practitioners will arrange their own residence.

If you catch a shady monk trying to trick you, you won't know how he died. Without certain precautions, or if you don't understand other people's arrangements, it's best not to set foot in other people's homes easily.

Knowing these two harmless formations, Xu Chenglin stepped into Old Man Li's residence with confidence. Seeing Xu Chenglin's actions, Old Man Li was slightly surprised. But then he saw the smile on Xu Chenglin's face, and also

He seemed to understand something. He slightly cupped his hands and said with a smile to Xu Chenglin.

"Fellow Daoist Xu is really good at seeing my residence clearly in just an instant."

Xu Chenglin didn't hide anything, smiled and nodded gently.

Seeing Xu Chenglin readily admitting it, Old Man Li secretly thought that it was indeed the case. He nodded slightly, and then formed a few spells in front of Xu Chenglin. Then the floor of the hut lit up with a spiritual light, and a defensive light shield instantly

It enveloped the entire hut. After a few flashes, the light shield became invisible. At the same time, the surrounding spiritual energy became a little richer.

Old man Li clapped his hands gently and smiled at Xu Chenglin.

"Made fellow Taoists laugh!"

Xu Chenglin didn't say much, he just spoke lightly.

"Being able to do this on your own is already very impressive. At the time, we Qi Condensation monks from the sect might not have been able to do it ourselves."

Of course Old Man Li knew that what Xu Chenglin said were polite words. He was not wrong in his mind and knew that he was incomparable to the monks of the sect.

Looking around, Xu Chenglin felt that it was time to get down to business. He thought for a while, and used the magic formula in his hand to cast a sound-isolating spell.

The entire hut fell into silence, and under such circumstances, the two people began to discuss the matter of the golden carp.

That night, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the stars in the sky were as bright as the Milky Way. A slight wind stirred up the dust on the ground. At this time, the lights were still on in the thatched house, and the night was extremely quiet.

It is very quiet at night. Quietness can allow people to sleep peacefully, and at the same time, it can also provide cover for some people. There are not many places with lights on Mingyue Island, and most people have fallen into a deep sleep. But some people, taking advantage of this,

The quiet night crept over quietly.

Old Man Li was still discussing this matter with Xu Chenglin, and Xu Chenglin raised his eyebrows. Old Man Li noticed Xu Chenglin's movements, and intuitively he must have sensed something.

"Fellow Daoist Xu..."

Xu Chenglin waved his hand and interrupted him.

"Two monks are approaching here. Their cultivation is probably at the early stage of Qi Condensation. I just don't know if they came here on purpose or if they passed by here accidentally."

Hearing this, Old Man Li's body tensed up. He didn't dare to be careless. Although he was a monk in the early stage of Qi Condensation, he was not good at fighting. Especially against two monks who were at the same level as himself, he was even more worried.

It is ten deaths and no life.

"Damn it! This bastard Tian Yuzi didn't expect to send someone to take action less than a day later. He is really cruel and ruthless!"

Without knowing the specific situation, Old Man Li started to curse loudly. He seemed to have determined that these two monks in the early stage of Qi Condensation were sent by Tian Yuzi to take revenge.

"What do fellow Taoists think?"

Although Xu Chenglin somewhat agreed with Old Man Li's guess, he was still a little curious about his certainty.

"Fellow Taoist, I don't know. This kind of thing has happened once or twice. I heard that there were people who offended him on other islands before, and they died in less than a day. Counting the time today, it should be

He took action."

Xu Chenglin nodded slightly, and his consciousness followed the two Qi Condensation monks without leaving a trace. In just half a cup of tea, Xu Chenglin saw them heading towards the hut. At this time, Old Man Li finally felt the two

Personal arrival.

"Come on, come on! It's really the person sent by this guy!"

Old Man Li muttered softly, looking slightly nervous.

After looking at Old Man Li, Xu Chenglin was speechless. He shook his head slightly and spoke tentatively.

"Is it possible that Fellow Daoist Li has never experienced fighting?"

Hearing Xu Chenglin's words, Old Man Li smiled sarcastically.

"To be honest with you fellow Taoist, I have never experienced a fight in these years."

Shrugging, Xu Chenglin really didn't know what to say this time.

"Monk, you really need to have a certain ability to protect yourself. Otherwise, like this person, you will be helpless once disaster strikes."

With this thought in his mind, Xu Chenglin had already noticed that the two Qi Condensing monks had landed in front of the hut. Old Man Li looked very nervous, and beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead from unknown time.

Looking at Old Man Li's performance, Xu Chenglin knew that once they joined forces, Old Man Li would definitely not be able to count on him. Taking a slight breath, Xu Chenglin held down the opponent's shoulders.

"No matter what happens, you just need to stay in the house."

While Xu Chenglin was talking, he suddenly heard someone outside shouting towards the house.

"Old Man Li! Why don't you come out and die!"

Hearing this shout, Old Man Li shivered with fright. Xu Chenglin shook his head helplessly and was about to walk out. At this time, someone shouted loudly outside the house again.

"Come out quickly and die!"

The voices of the two people were not small, and the echoes spread far away. It is reasonable to say that everyone who was sleeping on the island was awakened, but in fact, the number of people who turned on the lights in the house did not increase much. Everyone knew that an outbreak was about to happen on the island.

When it comes to fighting, it's safer for those who don't have the skills to stay indoors. If you run out rashly, you'll only die faster. It's human nature to seek good fortune and avoid disaster. It's also reasonable that no one dares to turn on the lights at this time.

among.

Xu Chenglin shook his head and was speechless to the two people outside the room.

"Two lunatics! You come here to kill people in such a big way. Why don't you just come here during the day? Why come here at night? You take off your pants and fart, you are really sick!"

With this thought in his mind, Xu Chenglin looked out through the window of the hut. He saw two monks standing outside the hut at this time. Both of them were dressed in black. Their appearance and hair were all covered, leaving only

A pair of eyes with cold light. Through their eyes, Xu Chenglin seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

"Although they look like two idiots, they have seen blood! Not only that, these two people should have killed many people. In other words, these two people are not stupid, but they are just too confident in themselves.

That’s all.”

With this thought in his mind, Xu Chenglin slowly drew out the Jingzhe Sword. He turned around and signaled to Old Man Li, asking him to cooperate with him in sneak attack on the two people. Unexpectedly, Old Man Li watched Xu Chenglin draw the sword, but was stunned for a moment, and did not respond.

Understand the hints in his eyes.

"What a pig teammate!"

Xu Chenglin sighed in his heart and spoke in a low voice.

"Fellow Daoist Li, if I ask you to open the defensive formation later, just do it. Don't hesitate!"

His expression struggled slightly, and he looked at Xu Chenglin hesitantly.

"Fellow Taoist, will doing this..."

Xu Chenglin glared at him, and then spoke helplessly.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. I'll make a sneak attack later and kill one of them. As for the remaining one, I guess it won't be able to withstand a few of my attacks."

Old Man Li was still a little hesitant, but finally nodded.

When Xu Chenglin saw this situation, he didn't say anything more. He pinched his sword fingers with his hand and lightly touched the Jingzhe Sword. The sword rang softly, and a stream of sword energy enveloped the sword. Xu Chenglin's eyes flashed, and two gods

Consciousness struck the sword like substance. Taking a breath, Xu Chenglin's sword tip was already aimed at a monk in black.

"Open the formation!"

Suddenly, Xu Chenglin shouted. Because of his nervousness, Old Li was almost startled by Xu Chenglin. But he did not waste time and opened the protective mask almost as Xu Chenglin shouted.

The protective light shield flashed out outside the hut, and the two monks in black outside the house were stunned. Just when they were about to attack the protective shield, they suddenly saw the protective shield disappear.

This time I was completely stunned, not knowing what Old Man Li meant.
