"I am a beggar, hiding from the snow with two other friends."
"All the ruined temples in the city were occupied by beggars who were older than us. We had nowhere to go. The snow was really cold and the whole world was white. There were only three of us outside in the vast sky and earth, looking for
A place to live.”
"Later, we could only curl up under the eaves in front of other people's houses, huddled together in those small spaces to keep warm, but the snow fell again and the wind was more painful than a knife..."
"That snow was really cold."
Liu Sanbian stretched out his hands and spread his palms in front of the blazing flames. The beating flame tongue had already "licked" his palms, but he showed no reaction.
"Every house wouldn't let us hide from the snow, for fear that we would break in at night. They would open the door and drive us away. In the ice and snow, we could only run, run, run, going from house to house. Our ears were already freezing.
We didn't dare to rub it because we couldn't feel it anymore. The straw shoes and the soles of our feet were frozen together, almost turning into stone. Our bodies started to feel hot by the end, and we couldn't help but take off our clothes... But, he opened the door.
Already."
"He didn't pick up the broom, he didn't say anything, he just stepped aside."
Liu Sanbian's eyes reflected two fires, burning silently.
"He is a teacher, with no wife and no children. He makes a living by educating the children in the neighborhood...I heard that he was originally an official, but later he committed a crime and was sent to the army. When he got older, he was allowed to go out.
Camp, live in the city..."
"Later, he adopted us, named the three of us, and raised us as his own sons. He hoped that all three of us brothers could study... But later, I realized that I was not good at studying, and I didn't have the other two younger brothers.
So smart, so I secretly learned martial arts from a master..."
"He was about to break my legs. I stood there motionless, looking at the ground with my face tilted. He raised the stick, but his hand still didn't fall down after all..."
The sinister man's voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end it became nothing more than his mumbling to himself.
Zhao Rong and Su Xiaoxiao looked at each other, then Zhao Rong licked his dry lips and said curiously:
"Is he still in Dawei?"
The sinister man did not answer, but stared blankly at the fire.
In the early morning, after sleeping for half the night, Zhao Rong woke up and kept vigil.
He patted the shoulder of Liu Sanbian, who was still sitting in a daze by the fire, and replaced him.
Zhao Rong threw some firewood into the fire.
Night vigil is the most boring, but it is also the most peaceful time in the center of the day, because everything is sleeping and he is the only one awake.
With nothing to do, he picked up the book box and sorted out the gains from his previous trip to Zhongnan Kingdom.
The first is a Tingni purple gold furnace.
Ting Gui said that this furnace has a good origin and is an imitation of the Zhen sect Taoist utensil of Louguan Taoism, one of the largest orthodox branches of Xuanhuang Taoism.
Throughout the ages, there have been many imitations of the Zhenpai Taoist artifact, but there are only nine stoves that are closest to it in terms of grade and divine will.
Three thunder furnaces, three fire furnaces, and three water furnaces.
Tingni Purple Gold Furnace is one of the three thunder furnaces.
And after all, for him at this time, this furnace was the biggest gain of this trip, because some of the strange medicines that could change Zhao Rong's life were refined with this divine furnace, and they were extremely effective.
It involves the heavenly thunder catastrophe caused by changing one's destiny against the will of heaven and the clay attribute of the thunder furnace itself, but it does not go into details.
In addition, the last step can be completed with a "bang" and the Liji Sword Pill is successfully refined.
But Zhao Rong always felt that the "boom" in his mouth was not that simple...
According to it, this Liji Sword Pill is extremely rare, and can even be said to be a legendary object. It has never appeared in the official history of Xuanhuang Cultivation World.
Historically, only some sword cultivators whose natal flying sword magical powers were similar to the rumored magical powers of the Ancient Li Emperor were speculated to have used Li Ji Jian Wan. However, they never received a response, so they were just rumors and could not be confirmed.
And those sword cultivators who were suspected were almost all great swordsmen of their era.
Zhao Rong, who was sitting by the fire, looked around and saw that everything was completely silent. The night was covered with layers of darkness, with only the occasional chirping of insects leaking out from the dark forest.
Like a miser, Zhao Rong carefully placed the Tingni Purple Gold Furnace on his lap. The weight was slightly heavy. He hugged the furnace body with one hand and opened the lid with the other.
Receive a furnace full of moonlight and wait quietly.
After a while, Zhao Rong lowered his head and carefully looked at the Liji Sword Pill, which was about to become "full moon".
This may be the only one left in the world.
To use Gui's words before, Mr. Zhao is extremely lucky, and he is worthy of his status as the Master of Fushiya Preparatory Sword. This luck is half of what it was back then...
Zhao Rong raised his head and looked around again.
He always felt a little flustered. This Tingni purple gold furnace was okay, but the key was the "bright moon" in the furnace.
When I think of the milky white bloody handprints on the furnace body under the moonlight that night.
Although Zhao Rong considered himself a strong and masculine man, he was also a little frightened.
Could it be involved in some bizarre and complicated cause and effect?
Could there be some ancient, mysterious curse waiting for him?
Or maybe it was a game set by some ancient powerful person who controlled the mountains and rivers. He was just a chess piece, responsible for delivering goods to the door. After the "bang" sound, he completed the mission of the chess piece and was laid off with honor.
Alas, isn’t it always a great pleasure to read the novels in the book store and find the protagonist’s unexpected treasure?
Why are you so flustered when you come to my place?
Zhao Rong pursed his lips, raised his right hand, looked at his open palm, and gradually clenched it into a fist.
Or is it because I am too weak now? A common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade in his possession.
A certain thought in his mind became more and more determined. Zhao Rong shook his head, closed the stove lid, put the Tingni Purple Gold Stove back into the bookcase, and took out other items.
A golden elixir that was still "warm" at this time came from Qingjingzi's Dantian. There were seven winding "cracks" on it, and a faint blue light emitted from them.
"Oh, it's just a seventh-grade golden elixir. This is the sky mark left by the thunder calamity of heaven when the elixir was formed. The more sky marks there are, the worse the quality of the golden elixir is."
Gui's voice came, and his tone was a little lazy, as if he had just woken up.
"This is a low-grade third-grade golden elixir. If you master this kind of golden elixir in the future, just find a piece of tofu and hit it to death."
"Hey, where can I find this tofu? It can actually kill me."
"roll."
"What's the use of this golden elixir?"
"You can't use it now. At most, you can use it to self-destruct before you die and die with the enemy, huh? Thinking about it this way, it seems to be quite useful. You can also bring people with you and set off gorgeous fireworks. Okay, I will teach you how to do it later.
Detonate it."
Gui's tone was a little excited.
Zhao Rong, who was arranged by Sword Spirit to hold a fireworks party before his death, was speechless and secretly cursed a madman.
Then there are two purple qi, "purity" and "inaction".
"Wuwei" is currently returning there to relieve its boredom.
"Pure" becomes Luo Ying on the white jade plaque around the waist, tied there quietly.
A robe called the Heavenly Immortal Cave Clothes is temporarily useless.
Finally, there was the farewell gift from Lin Wenruo.
Agarwood, spiritual jade, ivory paper knife, blue and white pen washer, two rare ancient books, etc.
But among them, Qinan Agarwood and Lantian Lingyu are not needed yet...
Soon, the sky brightened in the distance.
After bathing in the early sunshine, Zhao and Rong set off again.
One day.
The three of them walked to a border pass.
In front of the majestic 100-foot city wall, Liu Sanbian suddenly stopped.
