In the courtyard house in Liuhai Hutong in Kyoto, Shi Xuejin was holding a purple clay pot and sitting leisurely under the walnut tree to enjoy the shade. The crown of the walnut tree spread out to all sides, forming pavilions like a canopy.
Shi Xuejin didn't turn over the book in his hand for a long time. He closed his eyes and seemed to be reviewing what he just saw word by word.
Suddenly Hao Zhichao walked in quickly with a document and handed it to Shi Xuejin: "It was photographed by satellite a month ago."
Shi Xuejin opened a stack of photos and saw that all the trees on a small island in the Pacific Ocean were withered, and there were countless dead fish and shrimps around the island, all floating on the sea.
This originally beautiful island has no life at all and is completely withered!
Shi Xuejin suddenly frowned: "Are there any other clues?"
"No, no ship has approached this island in the past six months," Hao Zhichao said truthfully. They reported these things after confirming them.
Shi Xuejin thought for a while: "I hope this person did not go to Elephant Island."
The desolate scene of the island is actually a faint sign of A-level promotion!
When Li Xianyi was promoted to A-level, Luo City was filled with the trembling sound of swords for ten miles. If Li Xianyi hadn't stopped in time, Luo City would be in the same situation now.
The realm of everything being a sword has always been a legend. Even in Li Xian's sect, it has not appeared for a long time. After all, in the era of spiritual energy exhaustion, no one can break through the shackles of heaven and earth.
Li Xianyi is a bit special, because he practices swordsmanship, and the Qi Sea and Snow Mountain in his body pays more attention to its own accumulation.
Looking back at when Chen Baili was promoted to A-level, all the demon trees within a ten-mile radius of the ruins withered. If Chen Baili hadn't restrained himself, even the creatures within a ten-mile radius would not have been able to escape.
To be promoted to A level is to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. To change one's destiny against heaven and earth is ultimately to use other people's vitality to improve oneself, and to use other lives to fulfill oneself.
Although there is no way to really determine whether this is a strong person who has been promoted on the island, but always think about the bad side of everything before working hard for the good, which is the attitude that a large organization should have.
There is no reason for a strong man who was promoted a month ago to miss the opening of the ruins. However, the previous intelligence did not show anyone showing signs of A-level. If there is such a person, he would be too calm.
Shi Xuejin rarely showed a worried look: "What is this person trying to hide so deeply? Don't let Li Yixiao trick him..."
Hao Zhichao's eyes twitched, you know Li Tianluo's habit of deceiving people everywhere.
"Have you sent this document to Nie Tianluo?" Shi Xuejin suddenly asked.
"I sent it, but Nie Tianluo didn't reply to me and I couldn't get through the phone," Hao Zhichao said.
"Oh," Shi Xuejin nodded: "I'm afraid we've already arrived."
Hao Zhichao was stunned for a moment: "Where did Nie Tianluo go?"
Shi Xuejin took the linear book on the stone table in his hand again and lay down. The chair shook again: "Go kill someone."
Shi Xuejin spoke with a calm demeanor, as if words like Nie Ting and murder were harmoniously paired together.
Shi Xuejin and Nie Ting were classmates when they were young. Nie Ting's master was Shi Xuejin's father, and Shi Xuejin was much older.
Originally, the family's secret knowledge was not passed on to others, but Shi Xuejin was not born with the qualifications to practice and could not inherit it. Therefore, Shi Xuejin's father adopted the orphan Nie Ting. Few people knew that Nie Ting was also an orphan.
Precisely because Shi Xuejin had no qualifications, when he was young, he determined to understand the three religions and find a different path for the young people in the world who had no qualifications.
The current old house in Liuhai Hutong was left by Shi Xuejin's father. At that time, Shi Xuejin was still a teenager and Nie Ting was still a child. Shi Xuejin's father planted the walnut tree with his own hands, and the two of them were right next to them.
But Nie Ting was different. Shi Xuejin almost witnessed with his own eyes how Nie Ting, an ignorant young man, covered his hands with blood for his ideals. Over the years, Nie Ting had killed too many people.
What Shi Xuejin could do was to ask Nie Ting to come to the courtyard to rest in peace every time after he killed someone, so as to dispel the murderous intention in his heart and avoid going astray.
Over time, after Nie Ting finished killing, he would come to the courtyard to meditate for a few days.
Shi Xuejin never thought there was anything wrong with Nie Ting killing people. Those he killed were all people who deserved to be killed.

Camp at an altitude of 6,000 meters on the southern slope of Mount Everest in Nepal.
This is a good time to climb Mount Everest. October is about to come, and the climate on Mount Everest is relatively stable when the autumn air is crisp.
The camp was already overcrowded at this time. Colorful tents were stationed at 6,000 meters in the camp. A gust of cold wind blew through, suddenly making the tents in the entire camp rustle.
Mount Everest is now very commercialized. As long as you insist on exercising every week and spend some money, you can go up.
The most important thing to pay attention to when climbing the world's highest peaks is the problem of hypoxia. Prolonged hypoxia can lead to cardiopulmonary failure. During the process of climbing from the bottom of the mountain, many people sometimes have to retreat back down the mountain before they can even reach an altitude of 4,000 meters.
.
After reaching an altitude of 6,000 meters, everyone must adapt here for one to two weeks before they are eligible to continue to challenge higher positions.
Climbing Mount Everest is different from ordinary climbing to watch the sunrise. It is a protracted battle.
When humans reach an altitude of 7,200 meters, if there is no oxygen, they will be like walking zombies. They will almost completely lose their ability to think and their brains will go blank. Therefore, when climbing Mount Everest, people now carry oxygen bottles on their backs.
Spend some money and a local Sherpa will accompany you up there carrying a bundle of oxygen bottles...
Lack of oxygen does not exist. You can become stronger if you have money...
There are many climbers in the 6,000-meter altitude camp who are unable to adapt to the plateau climate. Everyone returns to their tents after a short adaptation training every day.
However, at this time, there was a group of people who seemed out of place with ordinary climbers. They had no obstacles in their movements, and the plateau climate seemed to have no impact on them at all.
Judging from the appearance and characteristics, the yellow skin is darker than the others, and a few of them have thick beards, which makes them look a bit like Middle Easterners.
One of them sat on a rock and said with a smile: "These climbers all look like they are about to die and are lying in their tents. I don't know why they have to climb this mountain."
Another person glanced at the climbers: "Don't laugh at others, watch the satellite phone, we may take action at any time."
"This is where we start to contain them. I don't believe that Dragnet will really send A-class people into the ruins. There are too many people like us on the border to contain them. If you don't pay attention, they will be besieged by countless people.
, but I think it’s also funny. In fact, we don’t dare to go in, right? We just treat it as a tourist.”
