The man had his back against a big tree, his legs straightened, and he was sitting on the ground unrestrainedly. His black robe mopped the floor, but he didn't feel dirty at all. His long hair reached his waist, and he could faintly see pale and messy hair.
A rough, bearded face.
What shocked Lin Xin the most was that the other person, like him, was not a two-faced person, but just an ordinary normal person.
Gulu.
The man picked up the wine bottle and took a sip. He didn't seem to notice Lin Xin standing beside him at all.
After taking a deep look at the other person, Lin Xin noticed that there seemed to be a faint word on the back of his black robe. However, because his back was facing him, he could not clearly see what the word was.
He is not a troublesome person. Since the other party dares to sit here and drink like this, it means that the other party is definitely not an ordinary person. This is the country of Two-faced, and masters may come here at any time. Anyone who dares to drink freely here while drunk is not a fool.
, that is, an expert.
He doesn't believe that the other party is the former.
Taking out the demon talisman, he injected inner energy, and the carriage suddenly appeared behind him.
Jumping back slightly, Lin Xin disappeared into the air.
The man in black robe seemed not to notice that he disappeared at all, and continued to pick up the gourd and take a deep drink.
****************
A few days later.
Lin Xin, covered in blood and wearing tattered robes, fled into the maple forest in embarrassment. He ran for a moment, and then the Two-Face Man who was chasing after him slowly left. It seemed that they did not dare to chase too deep into the forest.
Hiding behind a maple tree, Lin Xin gasped for air and took the heart-saving pill. Half of his waist was missing. The left side of his waist seemed to have been bitten off by some ferocious beast. There was an obvious gap and red muscles.
and white tendons can be clearly seen, almost exposing the internal organs.
The wound had been burned by the high temperature. After stopping the bleeding, Lin Xin gritted his teeth and applied the wound medicine on himself. Listening to the two-faced people behind him shouting in a language that he could not hear, cursing and slowly retreating.
For several days, he discovered that these two-faced people did have a slight fear of this maple forest.
Looking around, he suddenly realized that he had seen the long-haired man in black robe drinking.
The guy was actually still leaning under the original big tree, drinking wine motionless. The wine gourd in his hand had been replaced by a red one, which was as big as a man's head.
This was the second time Lin Xin saw the other party. He was a little puzzled. Every time he came here, he would randomly appear in other places. This guy was still in Maple Forest, and his posture was the same as before. Could it be that he had always been there?
Haven't you moved since you stayed here?
Doubts arose in his mind. However, the other person was still the same as before, still drunk and hazy, his eyes were dull and unfocused. The bearded face seemed not to pay attention to him at all, and he just drank one sip after another.
After applying the wound medicine, Lin Xin summoned the carriage and left again.
****************
The third time he saw the drunk man was half a month later. Lin Xin's second-level cultivation had made almost no progress at all, still at 0%. He could feel the warmth pouring into his body during the killing. But he could also
I feel that the trace of warmth is slowly escaping with the red flower sword.
You can also feel the difficulty when using the Blood Element Art to circulate spiritual energy to the Red Flower Sword.
He understood that unlike the path of swordsmanship, for monks like him who followed the magic weapon style, magic weapons could help the monks quickly develop combat power, but sometimes they would also limit the monk's improvement due to the material.
Such are the pros and cons of blood sacrifice.
He knew that he had to find materials. If the Red Flower Sword was not improved, he would not be able to continue to enhance his cultivation.
The third time he discovered this problem, he didn't come out and kill people. Instead, he hid instantly when no one was paying attention, and then left far away from where the silver armor master was.
This time he just casually killed an ordinary Two-Face man on the road, which was regarded as completing the mission. He spent more time thinking and relaxing. He was thinking that maybe he could find good materials here, just like the Sword of Heaven's Will last time.
Same.
Then I didn't know why, but I thought of the bright red maple forest.
Anyway, there was no way to improve his killing skills now, so he simply started wandering around again, and soon found the familiar maple forest in a not far away area.
Entering the woods, he saw the drunk man without much searching.
He just stood up.
This was the first time Lin Xin saw him doing anything other than drinking.
So he immediately became interested and planned to carefully observe what other moves this guy made.
The man stood under the maple tree, holding a wine gourd in one hand and taking out a handful of demon talismans in the other hand.
When Lin Xin saw this scene, he thought he was dazzled. He blinked hard and saw clearly that it was indeed a demon talisman. It cost five or six yuan!
The man casually grabbed the demon talisman seeds together and inserted them into the ground. The demon talisman seeds were then gently buried into the soil.
Then the man picked up the wine gourd, turned around and left, disappearing into the air in the blink of an eye.
"He is positioning himself!" Lin Xin suddenly figured it out, "But he is not afraid that someone will take away his demon talisman and then take advantage of others?" He was confused again.
A handful of demon talismans costs five or six yuan!
Lin Xin knew how difficult it was to obtain the demon talisman now. If he wanted to kill a silver-armored general, he would need many days of planning, calculation, and seduction to succeed once. But he could only get one piece like this. How could he have the original intention?
It starts simple and easy.
Seeing the man disappear completely, he knew he was gone.
And the place where the five or six pieces of demon talisman seeds were buried had nothing strange at all. There were no traces of formations, no runes, and no protection. It was just as peaceful as if a child had dug up the soil and buried it.
There is still a small piece of demonic talisman seed still exposed outside the soil.
Standing on the edge, Lin Xin was constantly stimulated by temptation and impulse. That handful of demon talismans was at his fingertips. Once he got it, he could increase his attributes by five or six points. In this way, his strength would make a qualitative leap.
.It will be much easier to hunt Silver Armor again.
My mind is struggling fiercely.
Lin Xin's expression changed, and he tightened and loosened his grip on the sword hilt, then loosened and tightened again.
but
He's not used to it and doesn't want to.
When did he, the dignified owner of Lingxin Villa, do such sneaky things? He has his own dignity and his own pride.
Holding the hilt of the red flower sword tightly, he took a deep look at the place where the man disappeared, turned and left.
"Smart little guy." After walking a few steps, an indifferent female voice suddenly entered his ears.
Lin Xin paused. Looking around, he suddenly saw a woman in red appearing in the forest. Her face was pale, her lips had no color at all, she looked haggard, and she was so thin that she seemed to be exposed to wind at any time.
Generally blown down.
Lin Xin looked at her warily, another guy appeared next to him unknowingly, a master, an absolute master!
The hair on his body stood on end. The two of them were only ten meters apart, and he could smell the thick and greasy smell of blood on the other party. He had to kill many people to accumulate such a terrifying smell. Just smelling it
After taking a sip, he felt faintly nauseous.
The woman was wearing a red dress, swaying as if she might fall at any moment, walking towards the maple forest. She passed Lin Xin, as if she hadn't seen him at all.
Only then did Lin Xin realize that he couldn't tell what language the other party used in the sentence he just heard.
No, he couldn't even hear clearly whether the other party really sent a voice.
It wasn't until the woman in the red dress disappeared deep into the forest that he felt a cold sweat break out all over his body.
"I don't know what kind of cultivation she is, she is really scary." Lin Xin's inner energy was flowing, and his sweat was evaporated. He didn't want to stay here anymore, so he quickly called out the carriage and turned around to leave.
******************
The villa is covered with snow and the heavy snow has stopped.
Zhuangzi was holding a trial outside the forest. The disciples of the villa, led by Taoist Lu Suo and several other masters, gathered to practice. In the early morning, a large group of elite disciples of the villa were holding swords and practicing swordsmanship in a uniform formation outside the bamboo forest.
The shouts and shouts were like pine waves, one after another.
Lin Xin was sitting at the front of the main hall of the villa. He could also hear the shouts and shouts coming from outside.
The seats on both sides are for the top management of the villa, and on the left are five innate masters. The highest level is nine and the lowest level is four. They are all senior disciples trained by the previous villa.
On the right are Lin Xinyuan, Gongsun Li, and other senior executives of the villa.
"As for the materials, since it was ordered by the owner of the village, I will naturally do my best." Lin Xinyuan said solemnly, "I, Xinyuetang, have spent a lot of money to collect one of the white deer silks. According to the description, properties, and testing, the quality should be between two and two.
The hundred-year-old silk comes from the Jinyu Sect."
"How's the portion?" Lin Xin was slightly pleased.
"According to Yang Lao's calculation, it is enough to be used five times." Lin Xinyuan said seriously.
"That's good." Lin Xin thought for a while, "With regard to the gold mine issue at the Xinyue Hall Master's side and the conflict with the new faction, which of the worshipers is willing to take action?" He looked to the left. After making contributions, naturally
Rewards must also be given in return. Moreover, the innate sacrifices that have been raised must go out more and practice more to improve their cultivation experience. They cannot work behind closed doors.
"I'll take my apprentice with me. I had a great conversation with the Seventh Prince last time, and this time I can go and rest more." A worshiper with a seventh-level cultivation said with a smile.
Lin Xin nodded.
Among the three materials, White Deer Silk is available.
"Where are the other two materials?"
"My subordinates did get some iron, but the amount may not be enough." Ou Yinghong, one of the top executives of the villa, said. "My sisters spent a lot of effort to get some iron from an old man living in seclusion in the mountains.
A little accumulated nine-flower iron, this kind of fine iron, has many flower-like patterns on the surface. The pattern appears and disappears and repeats nine times every year. It is very concealable. However, Mr. Yang said that the amount is not enough. The subordinates are ashamed, and they are looking for it in Yuefu Realm.
It's been all over the place, and there's no news coming back from the neighboring provinces either."
Lin Xin nodded.
"It's already pretty good." Actually, he didn't originally place any hope on the few people present. He mainly asked the masters of the Yanyang Sect to buy things on the black market. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise here. (To be continued...)
