Xifeng City has long since sunk into the depths of the earth along with the past, but Ouyang Xue always likes to come here to be in a daze.
The city that originally stood in the deserted sand buried her life and past for more than ten years. It was also the place where her father and brother devoted their efforts and painstaking efforts for two generations. Now, the ruins of the city
Although he is no longer here, the care in my heart is still hard to let go of.
"My dear, when do you think that person will come back?"
In her arms, she held a red salamander.
The red flame dragon beast has a long neck and sharp horns, and is covered with scales. It originally had a pair of fleshy wings on its back, but now there are only two scars that have not yet healed, and its body has been damaged. Ouyang Xue's movements
Softly and slowly, with a bit of caution, this is after all
A dragon beast that is famous in the desert is a rare species among dragon beasts. Its previous owner was a perfect martial emperor who dominated the world! When he met the dragon beast for the first time, Liu Shuzhu was being chased by it and jumping up and down.
The others were also frightened by this little guy.
I didn't expect that once it became docile, it would act like an ignorant child.
The fire energy that naturally leaks out of the dragon beast is amazing, so she needs to use the power of essence to offset the heat, which is also a way to hone her energy.
"From the first time I saw him, Xue'er felt that he would never be the kind of mediocre person, but she never thought that he would be so great!" The red flame dragon beast squinted its eyes.
, enjoyed her gentle touch very much, and there was a faint aura of fire all over its body. In order to avoid accidentally hurting Ouyang Xue, it had tried its best to restrain the aura on its body.
"Now... he has gone further and further on the road of martial arts, and his achievements are getting higher and higher. Is it possible for me to catch up with him?" Ouyang Xue's face was full of worry and concern, "But
No matter where he is now, Xueer prays to God that he can be safe... My dear, do you think he will miss me occasionally?"
"Of course I think about it, but not occasionally, I think about it every day."
At this time, a clear voice suddenly appeared behind him, with a hint of cynicism in his tone.
Ouyang Xue's delicate body trembled, and she turned around suddenly, finally seeing the person she had been longing for. However, the surprise came so suddenly that she still couldn't believe it. She opened her mouth half-open, and gently used her hands to
He rubbed his eyes and then froze in place.
However, the Red Flame Dragon Beast suddenly jumped out of her arms and stood between the two of them. It grinned and had a bad expression. It acted as if it was protecting Ouyang Xue. It could probably still remember who Liu Shuzhu was, but because of the smell,
He encountered a more terrifying beast energy, so he did not act rashly. Liu Shuzhu had been hanging out with the giant rat for so long, and his clothes must have been contaminated with the giant rat's energy. Humans cannot detect it, but beasts can sense each other's energy.
exist.
Liu Shuzhu said with a smile: "What's the matter? How long has it been? Miss Xue'er doesn't recognize the down-and-out little bandit you picked up from the desert?" The next moment, Ouyang Xue had already pounced on him fiercely.
She threw herself into his arms and never wanted to let go. The fragrance of the girl's hair drifted into her nose, which made Liu Shuzhu slightly embarrassed. He didn't expect that Ouyang Xue would have such courage to throw herself into his arms after a long separation.
He had no choice but to gently pat the other person's back with one hand to calm her down.
Ouyang Xue was his first female fan and savior in his life.
She does not have the world-famous charm of the Yan family witch, nor does she have the noble temperament of Yu Qingya, and it is even harder to compare with Jun Yao's naturally delicate image. Taken together, she looks very ordinary, but she always looks like a
The girl next door gave Liu Shuzhu an indescribable sense of closeness, even though he had never had any neighbors near Xiangma Town.
Liu Shuzhu's heart was full of warmth, and he thought that if Ouyang Xiao was still alive, seeing this scene, he would probably be able to chop himself with a knife.
…
After a long time, the two returned to the Ouyang family's small oasis together.
Halfway through, the red flame dragon beast's eyes were always unkind, and it was eager to try several times. It seemed that it wanted to spit fire from its mouth and attack Liu Shuzhu. The latter picked it up without any reason, wrapped it with a scimitar cloak, and immediately beat him up.
.
Ouyang Xue felt extremely distressed and hurriedly stopped her!
"Little lizard, please listen to me. The reason why I beat you today has nothing to do with the fact that you sprayed me with fireballs before. Back then, you chased me for dozens of miles and spit out more than 20 fireballs, which caused me losses.
I have long forgotten about several spiritual weapons and that little grudge. Now that you have chosen Xueer, your future responsibility is to protect her with all your strength. If she loses half a hair, I will skin you alive.
!”
There was deep fear in the eyes of the red flame dragon beast. Liu Shuzhu was so proud that he finally regained his previous face.
After returning to the city, the little monk Ruzhen, Zhao Ziyun and others all looked at Liu Shuzhu and Liu Shuzhu's faces with strange eyes.
Scarface asked: "Why have you been here for so long? There are plenty of rooms in the city."
Seeing the looks of these grandsons as if they were trying to catch someone, Liu Shuzhu understood immediately and couldn't help but curse.
"Those guys, their minds are really dirty. What are they thinking about? Xue'er and I are reminiscing about old times. Do you understand?"
It was getting darker and darker as it was painted, making Ouyang Xue's cheeks unable to help but show a hint of red.
The little monk Ruzhen said calmly: "Beasts."
"Little bald man, you are a fucking monk. With the dirty thoughts in your mind, do you still have the nerve to see the Buddha in the future?"
Before Ouyang Xiao died, he entrusted him to take care of Ouyang Xue, and Liu Shuzhu agreed wholeheartedly.
But he knew that his situation was dire, and he was always wandering on the edge of the abyss. He knew the feelings in the girl's heart, but he couldn't refuse anyone who came.
Now it seems that the people closest to him are always in danger and never feel at ease.
There is no need to say much about the relationship between the young monk Ruzhen and Liu Shuzhu, but after seeing Yichen and the other two Bodhi descendants, the young monk just felt a little surprised. The monk Miaolin remembered the past festivals and wanted to go forward and settle the differences with him.
The young monk touched his bald head and waved his hand very magnanimously: "The temple gate is gone, so don't mention the past. I don't hold grudges." He also took the initiative to extend a hand to Miao Lin and gnawed on it.
He handed over half of the chicken leg to show his friendliness, "Do you want to eat it?" Monk Miaolin looked ugly, shook his head repeatedly, and said he was guilty.
"Since we are all here, let's not talk nonsense anymore. Let's discuss our future plans."
In the city lord's palace, a special meeting hall was built. Although it was not luxurious, it was extremely spacious.
Monk Yanji, presided over by Xuan Sen, little monk Ruzhen, Yao monk Yichen, Zhao Ziyun, monk Miaolin and others were all seated in the hall.
When the world is in chaos, turmoil will occur all over Zhongzhou. Liu Shuzhu wants to discuss with them carefully what should everyone do. Currently, there are two eminent monks at the perfection level sitting here, and there are hundreds of eminent monks at the ninth level of Xiantian. But it is not enough to settle down and live a life. Not to mention the remnants of the ancient times and the overlord forces of all parties under the command of Junhun, even any of the ten sects in Zhongzhou has the power to destroy them.
The imminent threats are the Song Dynasty and the Pirates.
Even before Emperor Chongming died, the army of the Great Song Dynasty led by him only accounted for one-third of the Song Dynasty's heritage.
If he can return to China safely, will he send out his army again to the Western Desert to suppress the city?
Zhao Ziyun shook his head and said: "The Song Dynasty will definitely not let you go, but the pirates are frightened by a quasi-emperor, and you have a quasi-emperor to help. The Song Dynasty's military strength has been severely damaged this time, and the possibility of entering the Western Desert again is very small. , but if Brother Liu goes to China in the future, things may become very troublesome. In today's Song Dynasty, there are still two emperors, Taizu Wu, who have not left the country for thousands of years, and their reputations back then are not as good as those of Emperor Chongming. A few points away, their lifespan is about to come to an end, and they are about to be released from seclusion. Who knows what level their realm will reach!"
Everyone was moved one after another. There were tens of thousands of iron troops and thousands of generals of destruction in the Song Dynasty. If he wanted to deal with them, Liu Shuzhu would have no ability to protect himself. Let alone being led by two martial arts experts like Emperor Chongming!
He killed an emperor of the Song Dynasty, which was a mortal enemy, and the relics and green lanterns on his body gave the other party a reason to take action.
After the brutal siege in Si Jue City, the fighting power of the warrior army left an indelible impression on him!
Faced with many difficulties, it would be great if he could have an army composed of powerful martial practitioners.
"Brother Zhao, if you are given enough time and financial resources, how long will it take for you to train an army of warriors?"
Zhao Ziyun shook his head: "Martial arts practice is not easy. We in the Song Dynasty have many secret methods that can train warriors into military formations. However, we need to have countless spiritual essences of heaven and earth at the bottom, and tens of millions of warriors must be screened one by one. After a long period of training, it is possible to build an army with extraordinary combat power. It is not a problem that can be solved in a short time." If it is so easy to build a large army, then the Song Dynasty will not be the only one among the ten sects. The dynasty was founded by force.
What's more, Liu Shuzhu was alone and didn't have much wealth to squander.
The essence of heaven and earth he snatched from halfway was just a drop in the bucket in comparison, and could not meet the expenses of the army at all!
The little monk Ruzhen wiped the greasy face with his sleeve, and suddenly interrupted: "Liu, do you remember when we dealt with the Zhao thief? The people gathered in that place at that time were more powerful than I have ever seen in my life." There are more. Since you can coax them into taking action against the Zhao thief with just a few words, why don’t you also reveal your name as the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva and trick people into joining the gang? When the time comes, everyone will eat the meat and share the looted things. You are a liar anyway, if you can deceive someone, it is better than nothing!"
