According to what the man in red said earlier, reinforcements will arrive soon. If he continues to stay in this mountain, he will easily die without a burial place. Zhou Qingmu just used the mountain-destroying palm once and consumed too much. At this time, Zhou Qingmu

Then he decided to leave the Demon Broken Mountain first, rest for a while, and then go into the mountain to search for the sword.

One is to find the ancient sword that fell on the cliff, and the other is to find the demon-suppressing sword that the innkeeper asked for.

The Spirit Gathering Pill was originally a pill to assist in Qi cultivation. Zhou Qingmu consumed it so much that his own Qi was now unstable, and he needed to temper the Qi in the pill more.

But the young man did not choose to go down the mountain directly through the bluestone steps. Instead, he kept going around the surrounding mountains and forests. He could faintly sense that a strange aura was coming from the medicine garden he left earlier.

...

On the other side, Qian Shaowei and others who had escaped from Duanyao Mountain with the herb collection team had returned to Xiu Shuang City.

Qian Shaowei was sitting in his room with empty eyes at this time. The first thing he did when he returned to the city was to go home and look for his father. After he told his father what he had experienced in the mountains, the head of the Qian family

Qian Shihong, however, was uncharacteristically disobedient to his second son, who had always been arrogant. Instead, after Qian Shihong learned of the incident, he banned Qian Shaowei from his residence for three days and told him that he could not do it under any circumstances.

Tell us what you saw and heard during this experience.

The man Li Chen went home first, grabbed some food and left in a hurry. This made Li Chen's wife very confused. She only felt that her husband was afraid that something unspeakable had happened, so she didn't say much.

What are you asking? After Li Chu left home, he first went to every house in this alley to look for help. These neighbors, who often visited each other on weekdays, heard Li Chu say that he was going to rescue people in the extremely dangerous Duanyao Mountain.

At that time, most of them were unwilling to risk their lives, and in the end only two or three people were willing to follow Li Ji. After gathering people, Li Ji stood in the alley, hesitant, wandering, and after thinking about it, he went to Lao Mo.

A long time later, in the courtyard of Lao Mo's home, a woman looked up to the sky and shed tears, and a child cried.

But when Li Chu and others were about to leave, his wife at home stopped him in front of him after hearing about this. This woman, who was already in her late 40s, hugged her man's hand tightly and cried.

Reluctant to let go. Li Qi looked at his mother-in-law's behavior, and ripples appeared in his heart. At that time, the tragic death of Lao Mo flashed through Li Qi's mind, and when he was about to die, the young hero rushed to the scene.

He came to rescue him. Now, he was still in the mountains at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and his life or death was uncertain. How could he pretend that nothing had happened and ignore him? But in the blink of an eye, he thought of his children at home and his wife. If he left alone, I was afraid that he would die.

The odds are stacked against him, and he is not sure whether he will be able to come back alive. If he dies in the mountains like the old Mo who has been quarreling with him for many years, how can he be worthy of his wife and the children at home? Suddenly, nearly half a hundred people this year have died.

The middle-aged man really didn't know what to do.

At this time, after hearing that Lao Mo was dead, the few two or three people who had been willing to follow Li Chu sighed a few times and turned around to leave.

The man Li Chu looked at his wife holding his arms, then turned to look at Duanyao Mountain not far away. Feeling extremely sad in his heart, he broke away from his wife's hand and turned around to walk towards his home. The woman behind Li Chu looked blankly.

Looking at the back of my man returning home, I just feel that my man seems to have become older and more helpless than ever at this moment.

...

Zhou Qingmu walked all the way from the mountain to the pond where he met the girl in Tsing Yi before. Of course, this time he was no longer sliding down the mountain. Instead, Zhou Qingmu had seen that his search for the ancient sword had not been successful. If he had continued to search, he might have met someone who was traveling with him.

So, Zhou Qingmu began to look for a way out, and the woman in Tsing Yi who had been silent at this time pointed to the stone tablet with the three words "Yan Lianchi" engraved on it. Only when Zhou Qingmu got closer did he realize that there was a hidden path to the stone tablet behind it.

The path outside.

At this time, Zhou Qingmu walked into the path and returned to the Yanlian Pond where he had met the girl in blue. At this time, the girl's figure was no longer visible in the Yanlian Pond. Zhou Qingmu had no place to stay in the city, so this was an excellent place to practice. According to

Zhou Qingmu judged that few people came to this pool. Even if it was discovered, the environment here can be said to be "mountains on both sides of the strait, with no gaps. Heavy rocks overlap, hiding the sky and blocking out the sun. Returning to the clear reflection,

"There are many strange cypresses growing there." Zhou Qingmu had enough opportunities to hide among them. So Zhou Qingmu found a relatively secluded spot on the bluestone and sat cross-legged.

Zhou Qingmu’s mastery of the first move of Yuan Destroying Palm, Mountain Destroying, is only 23%, but obviously Zhou Qingmu does not have time to practice now. Now he needs to stabilize the true energy in his body. Zhou Qingmu’s previous state was already

At the seventh or eighth level of the Qi training realm, after tempering the remaining Qi in the Spirit Gathering Pill and continuously running the Taiqing Shenjing Sutra to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, Zhou Qingmu's realm is now faintly approaching the bottleneck.

Zhou Qingmu didn't notice that while he was practicing, a girl in green clothes with braids and small cloth shoes quietly sat on the bluestone facing the pool and looked at the pool of water in front of her.

The mountains and rivers are quiet, but the beauty is haggard.

According to the white-clothed Confucian Ye Jing'an, this Taiqing Shenjing Sutra can help him practice almost unimpededly to the second level of bone building. However, Zhou Qingmu did not want to step into the bone building state prematurely at this time.

The tempering of Qi is not yet strong, and the second reason is that Zhou Qingmu has been on the road of cultivation so smoothly that his mastery of Qi is not good, and can even be said to be at an extremely poor level.

Although Zhou Qingmu is currently relying on the first move of the Divine Power to Destroy the Yuan Palm, he is now able to defeat masters of the Bone Building Realm across borders. Once, when Ye Jing'an was preparing to leave the Great Zhou Tiancheng with Zhou Qingmu, he told Zhou Qingmu on the street: The battle of monks in the world

The level of strength cannot be judged solely based on the realm of cultivation. To judge the strength of a monk, one must first judge the depth of his cultivation by observing the thickness of his breath, then judge his skills and moves, and finally the realm of cultivation.

The previous man in red was much higher than Zhou Qingmu in terms of cultivation. The reason why Zhou Qingmu was able to defeat the opponent was because Zhou Qingmu seriously injured the opponent with a sneak attack at the beginning, and later the opponent did not hesitate to burn his life to activate his magical power. Therefore, Zhou Qingmu was able to win.

The power and luck of the Yuan-Destroying Palm are both crucial. If he were to fight the man in red head-on, Zhou Qingmu would have almost no chance of winning. So what Zhou Qingmu is doing now is to step into the bone-building realm "successfully", that is, to continuously hone his true strength.

Qi, let one's own true Qi fill the entire Dantian without leaking. To achieve this step, Zhou Qingmu can almost break through the realm naturally without any intentional guidance.

After Zhou Qingmu continued to use the exercises to temper, the restless Qi in his body finally calmed down. Most of the white Qi that entered his body was gradually tempered by Zhou Qingmu until it had a golden aura.

...

At this time, at the bluestone steps on the mountainside, the right envoy in red with a black mask said in a hoarse voice: "You disperse and look for that person. Today we will dig three feet into the ground to find him. If you can't find him, go down and accompany him."

Go ahead!"

The bandits in front of the right envoy in red quickly clasped their fists and bent down after hearing the words: "I will obey your right envoy's order."

After the words fell, they dispersed. They had seen the cruelty of the two envoys on the left and right. After the envoy on the left was murdered today, it was obvious that the envoy on the right was in a very bad mood. If they did not find that person, they would really be in trouble.

He may become the soul of this man.

The Duan Yao Mountain surrounds the entire Xiu Shuang City, except for the openings on the north and south sides that lead to the border areas and Dahong Capital City. Therefore, the Duan Yao Mountain is actually very large. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to find a person in this mountain.

Climbing to the sky. However, the right envoy in red could conclude that the person who killed the left envoy must be in the mountains and forests surrounding this bluestone step.

...

Zhou Qingmu had already adjusted his state at this time. He was prepared to refine his true energy to perfection in one fell swoop. However, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth between the mountains and forests gradually became thinner again, and it became increasingly difficult to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Zhou Qingmu

I had to give up and continue practicing.

The young man stood up and patted the dust on his clothes. In his peripheral vision, there seemed to be a woman in blue with bare feet sitting on the bluestone.

Zhou Qingmu raised his head and looked carefully at the figure on the bluestone on the other side. After confirming that it was the girl from before, he waved his hand and shouted across a corner of the pool: "Girl, girl!"

The girl in green clothes who was looking at the pool had naturally not noticed anyone here before, so she turned to look at Zhou Qingmu with a hint of confusion on her face.

Zhou Qingmu saw the girl in green clothes looking at him, so he trotted along the bank of the pool to the bluestone where the girl in green clothes was sitting.

When the girl in green clothes saw Zhou Qingmu running towards her, she turned her head and continued to look at the pool of water where the green shadow was swaying.

Zhou Qingmu walked to the girl and squatted down slowly, looked at the girl in green who lowered her head and said nothing, and asked: "Girl, didn't I tell you that it's dangerous here and asked you to go home early, why did you come back again?

"

The girl in green clothes suddenly turned her head and looked at Zhou Qingmu with her lost but beautiful eyes, who was also looking at the pool of water. The girl turned her head and continued to look at the pool of green water, but she was no longer silent and whispered.

Said: "I don't want to go back, my home... is very boring."

After saying that, the girl paused and seemed to think about it.

After Zhou Qingmu heard this, he turned to look at the girl in green who was looking at the pool, lowered his head and whispered softly: "Girl, it's getting late, you'd better go home early. It will be very unsafe here soon."

Unexpectedly, the girl in green shook her head after hearing this.

"No problem."

Zhou Qingmu looked at the pool of water that was the same as the girl's eyes.

"What the girl said is probably because she has something on her mind."

The girl in green clothes remained silent.

The young man beside him shook his head and said: "That's not right. Girl, it's wrong for you to think this way. I don't know what happened to the girl, but I'm sorry to bother you. My mother told me before that no matter what happens to her,

Don’t give up hope for this world no matter what. At that time, I was still young and didn’t understand what this sentence meant. Until today, after experiencing a lot of things, I finally figured it out. In fact, it doesn’t matter how you live, as long as you are still there

In this world, living well is the most important thing."

The girl in green lowered her head deeper and did not answer.

Zhou Qingmu didn't pay attention, stood up and looked at the sky with only the afterglow of the setting sun, and slowly spoke.

"Girl, there are actually many beautiful things in the world. For example, in the small town where I lived before, the teacher liked to talk about the grass growing and the willows flying and the willows Yiyi. I don't understand these very well, but sometimes I can
