Yuzhou has been rich and fertile since ancient times. It looks to Funiu in the south and Songshan Mountain in the north. It is surrounded by the Yinghe River and has many outstanding people and heroes.
In the blessed land to the east of the city, surrounded by mountains and rivers, there is a majestic mansion with the name "Thunder Mansion" written on it. The tall gates and wide courtyards, and the majestic stone lions that dominate the house make it intimidating. Ordinary people only know that he is a rich and powerful person, but everyone in the world knows that this is a famous demon-slayer and an authentic Thunder Gate sect.
On this day, a small shop opened on the side of the main gate of Lei Mansion. This was originally a corner of the concierge, but the partition wall was opened and it became the facade facing the street. Neighbors were talking privately, how could the Lei family do such a small and sporadic business when they have such a big business? What a surprise.
The name of the shop is "Tian Ming Zhai", and its business is making a living by measuring characters, fortune-telling, and fortune-telling. The shopkeeper is a young man with a weak head, huddled in the corner, feeling dizzy and sleepy.
Everyone knows that fortune-telling is mostly done by monks, or at least they look like an old man with a long beard, or they pretend to be blind and wear sunglasses to fool ordinary people. It’s strange that some people would believe that this beardless kid is doing this.
Sure enough, it had not opened for three days in a row. The shop owner frowned and looked at the falling leaves on the street, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
At this time, the door and window opened, and a girl came in. She was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a beautiful and evil face. She was wearing gorgeous clothes, and she looked like a young lady from a wealthy family.
When the shop owner saw business coming to his door, he raised his brows and hurriedly greeted him, "Excuse me, madam, are you taking a calligraphy test or a facial recognition?"
The lady spoke, her voice was like gold and jade, very pleasant to the ear, "Sir, when you open the door to welcome guests, you must have profound knowledge. I would like to make a divination and ask about the bad luck in the recent days."
The shopkeeper opened his posture, shook the tortoise shell, copper coins fell, and the jingling sound was endless. He looked at the hexagram and said: "This is a lucky hexagram for the fleeting years. It is unremarkable. Disasters can be overcome. Wealth and honor are as usual."
The young lady was a little disappointed, "That's it? Look again, are there any other secrets?"
The shopkeeper looked at the hexagrams again and said: "The four seasons rotate in the passing years, and there are occasional winds, frosts, snows and rains. During the disasters, there will be noble people to help. They are all small ups and downs, nothing to mention."
The lady was still dissatisfied and turned over the coins, trying to find out the mystery. The shopkeeper said softly: "Miss, the hexagram capital is fifty cents."
The young lady was displeased and put on a cold face: "You are indeed a layman, you want to deal with me casually, you don't have any hexagram skills!"
The shop owner sighed, "I still thought I could open a business to make a living, but I was tricked by others. I'm in bad luck. Miss, please come back!"
The young lady smiled and said, "Actually, I am also good at this. Let me show you my palmistry. If it matches your fortune, if it doesn't work, I am willing to pay ten taels of gold."
The shopkeeper was delighted when he heard this. He opened his palm and the lady put her slender fingers on his wrist. The shopkeeper said in confusion: "Miss, I'm reading palms, not a doctor."
"This is how I look at faces, I'm happy with it!" She closed her eyes slightly, pretending like an old doctor, and opened her eyes for a long time.
"You are not a hexagram master at all. You are a demon subduer. You actually have another purpose in coming here. You are to be a door god for others, to ward off disasters and provide refuge..."
Seven days ago.
Que Xiu stands on the top of Mang Mountain, looking out at the prosperous capital city, with bustling people and busy traffic, surrounded by the Rouge River like a ribbon, flowing quietly. He sighed with emotion: "More than a month passed, I spent all my efforts, and fought many fierce battles. In the end, although I was tricked by others, I was able to save my old friend and become a descendant of the gods. It can be considered a reward."
Murong Qingtian said: "Brother Lu Jia and I are like old friends. We have met so late. I would like to invite you to stay at Murong Villa for a while to fulfill your friendship as a landlord. What do you think?"
Que Xiu waved his hand, "The Murong family is famous in the world. I'm sure there will be a lot of guests here, so I won't bother you!" He said this, thinking that this noble young master still wanted to touch his bottom.
Qingtian spread his hands and said, "Back then you said you owed me a favor. Now I sincerely invite you, but you resist me. Do you think that my brother wants to escape the world and never see me again?"
Que Xiu nodded, since you want to get to the bottom of it, I'll bring out some real stuff, otherwise I won't be able to get away. So he used the "technique of penetrating the earth" and arrived in front of Murong Villa on Songyue Mountain in an instant.
Qingtian's face was quite ugly. He was a little surprised. After experiencing the baptism of fire, his stomach was filled with overwhelming emotions. He forced himself to hold it back, and it was inevitable that it would show on his face.
Rest for a while and have tea and meal. After that, Qingtian took him around the villa. Seeing how attentive he was, Que Xiu responded with emotion.
When the tour reached dusk, Qingtian slapped his head and said, "I'm really rude. Brother is an honored guest. It's only polite that I should introduce him to the father of the family."
The two of them went to the main hall, where the head of the house was reading. Que Xiu stepped forward to greet him, and Qingtian introduced him: "Father, this is my new friend Lu Jia."
The head of the family stood up and returned the greeting, thinking: This passerby deliberately hides his identity. He is probably a treacherous person. Why did Qingtian lead him into the house?
After a few words of greeting, Qingtian said again: "Brother Lu Jia is young and has amazing magical power. He just used the earth-penetrating technique to travel thousands of miles in an instant. It was an eye-opener for me!"
His words aroused the owner's interest. Just as he was about to ask more questions, hearty laughter came from the door: "Just get out of the way. Murong Yue is a good friend of mine. What kind of communication do I need when Lao Lei comes?"
The carved door opened, and a middle-aged man with a beard strode in. Seeing this, the head of the family stood up to greet him, "It turns out that Mr. Lei is here. He didn't go far to welcome him. It's rude!"
Lao Lei laughed loudly, "I haven't seen you for a few years and you are still so sour and formal?"
He held the owner's arm and sat down carelessly. "I, Lao Lei, are in trouble, so I naturally come to you for help!"
This Mr. Lei acted as if there was no one around, chatting eloquently. Que Xiu neither stayed nor left, standing awkwardly.
"I, Lao Lei, have been restless recently, fearing that something might happen, so I went to Xiaonan Mountain to find a divination by the layman Zhuxia. He gave me the two words 'door god', which he said could eliminate disasters and solve problems. So I, Lao Lei, came to see me. is you!"
The head of the family was dumbfounded, "You have so many experts in the Lei family, why did you abandon the near and seek the distant to find me, Murong?"
"Who in the Lei family doesn't know me on the street? Can he be called a 'doorkeeper' when he squats at the door? He can only be regarded as a watchdog at best?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and Lao Lei yelled again: "What? Look down on our Lei family? I think the Lei family received the 'divine book order' back then, and there were gods!"
Qingtian had no choice but to step forward to smooth things over: "Since Senior Lei has something to entrust me with, Murong naturally can't shirk the blame. It just so happens that my best friend Lu Jia is here, a master of martial arts, a master of martial arts, and he is worthy of this important responsibility..."
"Do you admit it? Master, master, master!" The little girl stared at him with her eyelashes flickering.
Lu Jia sighed: "Boss Lei is really careless. He promised not to reveal my identity!"
"I eavesdropped when my father and uncle were talking!" The little girl changed the topic, "Brother Master, my father said that I was a girl and wouldn't teach me spells, and other senior brothers also refused, so I came to ask you to teach me. ."
Lu Jia's head is really as big as a bucket. If he is entangled with this little girl, it will definitely be impossible to escape. When the young lady saw that he was silent, her expression became pitiful, and tears welled up in her eyes, "I really like magic. I often steal some secret books to practice, but I always can't get it right. Brother master, you must teach me!"
Lu Jia couldn't shirk the blame, so he could only use a delaying tactic, "You go back and practice the secrets first, and come to me if you have any questions. You must do it quietly! Also, don't call me a master, my name is Lu Jia!"
The little girl was so happy that she looked back and smiled when she left, "Brother Lu, my name is Lei Ying..."
A hundred years ago, it was still in this gate. It was dusk, and there was a young man in white pacing back and forth outside the house, looking into the distance from time to time. He is thin and has a delicate face. If he were not dressed like this, at first glance, he would have thought he was a girl.
At this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves and dust was flying in the distance. A group of people came, led by a tall and powerful young man, wearing red armor, and a ball of flame came like the wind.
The young man in white was extremely happy and hurried forward to greet him. The man dismounted and slapped him hard on the shoulder, "Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for half a year, and you've become even more handsome!"
The young man in white pouted and said displeasedly: "A man should be rough and mighty. My brother always talks about me like this, and I feel depressed!"
"Okay, Brother Huang, this is an unintentional act as a brother, don't mind!"
The young man in white sighed again, "Father is really biased. He named you Chiyan, you are so shining and majestic, but he named me 'Huang', which is clearly a woman's name."
Lei Chiyan laughed, "You have repeated this rhetoric a thousand times, and I know it by heart. Well, I heard that your ice spells have improved by leaps and bounds. Let's have a competition with brother tomorrow."
His words once again hit Lei Huang's pain point, "My father said, 'Fire is the mother of weapons and the source of law'. It is the orthodoxy handed down from generation to generation of the Lei family, but I have a constitution of ice and cannot practice it. My brother's words are clearly an insinuation. I."
He turned his back and ignored Zhiyan, and his brother couldn't help laughing, "You are becoming more and more like a girl, so sensitive and unreasonable!"
After hearing the words, Lei Huang immediately stepped forward to play with him. After having enough fun, he held on to his blazing arms and walked into the mansion, talking as he walked, "I heard that my brother joined forces with the decent people to defeat the monster. I was both happy and happy. Worrying about you!”
"Isn't this a good thing for me? I have been tempered by blood and fire, and I am happy in the world. Just talking about it makes people's blood boil. By the way, I also brought you a gift."
Someone presented a brocade box, opened it and the cold air leaked out, and white mist rose. "I hunted a red-blooded demon spider for my brother. It haunted the banks of the magma river. But its spider silk was extremely cold. I picked it here specially for my brother. You are an expert in weapons, and your attributes are complementary to yours. Maybe you can send Come in handy."
The next morning, outside the bamboo forest of Xiaonan Mountain outside the village, thunder and flames were blazing, and the air was calm and leisurely. He flicked his fingers, and flames ignited around him, forming yellow circles on the grass.
"Old rules, attack with all your strength. If you can force me out of the circle, it will be considered your victory."
"Brother, be careful!" Lei Huang's eyes were sharp and his palms were as crystal clear as snow. The ice stretched out beneath his feet, covering dozens of feet in radius.
After that, he leaped a few feet and struck with both palms in the air. Blazing fire easily resolved it with the power of his palm and said: "The ice on the ground made my lower body unstable, so I forced it with great force. It's a good move, but it's just not strong enough."
Thunder Phoenix jumped up again and pushed forward with both palms. A huge vortex appeared above Blazing Flame, and countless ice swords fell from the sky. The flaming palm held up a red fire shield to block the power. The ice swords fell in all directions, forming countless icicles.
The figure of Thunder Phoenix suddenly disappeared, the icicles exploded behind Blazing Flame, and the figure shot out. Blazing Flame flicked the ice sword with his fingers, raised his arms, and the scorching energy leaked out, turning the icicles into nothing.
"I have made a false move in the east and attacked in the west. Brother, I have already guessed it!"
Lei Huang was so angry that he stamped his feet and wanted to attack. A shout came from the distance: "You two young masters are about to withdraw their magical powers. Something big has happened in the house. Come back quickly..."
