Li Xiuyuan took a breath, pointed at Zhao Meng and a group of guards and smiled: "They are human beings, and so are you. Since we are all the same, why can't you be more cruel to yourself?"
Putting down the bowl in his hand, Li Xiuyuan continued: "Zhang Liang has been looking forward to this day for I don't know how many years. Since you see hope, why don't you give it a try?"
Zhao Meng, who was sitting aside, was stunned for a moment, then he laughed excitedly and said, "If one day comes, I, Zhao Meng, and a group of brothers will practice Sanjiu in winter and accompany you to the end of the world bravely."
Xu Fu also blushed and said in a daze: "If I could be like Zhang Liang, I would definitely be more ruthless than him. Who doesn't want to become stronger these days?"
Why do you always dream of leaving Da Qin?
Xu Fu couldn't become an official because he saw the darkness of the Qin Dynasty and the uneasiness of the six kingdoms after the unification. He wanted to find a piece of pure land for himself and his descendants.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to risk his wealth and life to ask King Qin for such an opportunity.
However, this was what he felt in his heart, and he would not dare to tell Li Xiuyuan even if he died.
At least, he would not tell anyone around him these thoughts until he could safely set foot on the imaginary fairy island in his mind.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the gradually rising night and smiled faintly: "If you have a dream, chase it. What if it really comes true?"
This reminder, intentional or unintentional, immediately gave Xu Furu a wake-up call, as if he was waking up from a dream.
He was stunned and speechless for a moment, because he understood some of what Li Xiuyuan meant.
From the first time he and Zhang Liang went to No. 47 Xianlai Liquor, Li Xiuyuan reminded him of this truth, but he didn't understand it at the time, and since then the wine shopkeeper just liked to tease him.
Listening to the words of chasing dreams again tonight finally gave Xu Fu a glimmer of hope in his heart.
As Li Xiuyuan said, if you have a dream, chase it. What if it really comes true?
Otherwise, why would you risk thousands of miles and leave your hometown to pursue your dreams at sea?
With yesterday's experience, Li Xiuyuan asked Zhao Meng to take a group of guards to rest first, leaving only the two of them standing guard in the dark.
After all, no one knows when the bandits will attack, and everyone is maintaining enough strength to cope with the crisis at night.
Precautions have been taken outside the camp tonight, so even if there are bandits coming, there is no need to panic like last night.
Zhao Meng nodded, and while arranging people to keep vigil in the dark, he told a group of young men and women to rest quickly.
Only Li Xiuyuan and Xu Fu were left in front of the fire. Xu Fu had been waiting for a day and wanted to ask something.
Xu Fu, with a ball of fire in his stomach, looked at Li Xiuyuan in pain. Li Xiuyuan reached out to take a pulse and shook his head, pouring him another half bowl of wine.
When Xu Fu saw it, he took it unceremoniously and drank it in one gulp.
Just when he felt a ball of fire about to come out, Li Xiuyuan reached out to cover his mouth, and then put a hand on his back to help him stabilize the airflow.
Xu Fu was shocked and suddenly understood something, and he didn't dare to move at that moment.
I could only silently feel the flame burning in my body... until almost two quarters of an hour passed.
Only then did Li Xiuyuan let go of his hand behind his back, and held Xu Fu's hand for a while.
Then he smiled and said, "Congratulations, you will be a real monk from now on."
Xu Fu let out a heavy breath and asked viciously: "In this case, I can also pick up the sword and kill the bandits?"
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this: "You are overthinking."
Xu Fu sighed and asked with a wry smile: "What else am I going to do next?"
"Spend an hour every day meditating and practicing the most basic sword skills." Li Xiuyuan said seriously, "This is your lifelong practice."
Xu Fu lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then replied: "I seem to have something in my stomach. Did Zhang Liang also owe it to the shopkeeper at the beginning?"
Li Xiuyuan laughed when he heard this: "He, he yelled for a long time and provoked Lu Yuan again.
, I'm afraid he will suffer a loss. "
Hearing this, Xu Fu felt much more relaxed.
Thinking of Zhao Meng and others who had fallen asleep, they couldn't help but ask: "Chief Zhao and his gang are not bad. Would you like the shopkeeper to help them so that we can be safer along the way?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and said, "They have to wait for two days until we find a town to spend the night."
The current situation was extremely chaotic. How could Li Xiuyuan dare to mess around? He had to use the next two days to test the guards. Even the spiritual wine, he planned to divide it into three times and give it to everyone.
Otherwise, if the bandits attack in the middle of the night, Zongheng can defeat the enemy alone, and half of the people will be assigned to protect Xu Fu and a group of boys and girls, as well as their belongings.
He even thought that maybe before he left, he could talk to the old Taoist priest and ask him to take out a space ring and give it to this guy.
Otherwise, the third trip eastward would not be so easy.
Patting Xu Fu's shoulder gently, Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will write you a meditation formula to move Qi, and then I will teach you how to start practicing sword practice."
Xu Fu nodded and said, "I also want to know more about practice. Please ask Shopkeeper Li to teach me."
Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand and yawned, then shook his head and said, "The road to practice is long, don't worry, you can go to sleep first, you don't have to worry about things at night."
Xu Fu was very scared all day long. If he hadn't been so excited once he gathered his energy, he would have fallen asleep long ago.
Thinking about what Li Xiuyuan said, it makes sense. It is impossible to reach heaven in one night.
So after saying hello, he ducked into the tent to rest.
It wasn't until Xu Fu left that Li Xiuyuan sighed and opened his eyes, quietly looking at the starry sky above his head, his heart flying to nowhere.
He just opened a window for Xu Fu, Zhao Meng and others to practice. How high they can go in the future is not what he needs to care about.
Because he didn't want to create gods in Da Qin, he couldn't create gods here either.
In his opinion, as long as Xu Fu takes Zhao Meng and others on his third eastward journey, if Zhao Meng is still there at that time.
As long as the two of them keep working hard, they can almost reach the realm of golden elixir.
So, for Xu Fu, it may not be impossible to find his own way to cultivate immortality on an overseas island.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan sighed helplessly, thinking that he was just visiting this world to witness the occurrence of some big things.
But inadvertently, he changed the fate of someone who had nothing to do with the big event.
For example, Zhao Meng and a group of guards were in front of him.
In his opinion, maybe something happened to Zhao Meng and others when they went to sea this time, and next time the King of Qin would send Chen Meng and Zhang Meng. The Qin Dynasty would never lack the imperial army and loyal and brave men.
A pot of tea has been brewed three times, and it's almost Haishi.
Zhao Meng, who had slept for a while, was worried and quietly got up and touched it. Li Xiuyuan, who was already invisible in the darkness, nodded as he watched the fire gradually extinguish.
He asked softly: "Will it be peaceful tonight?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "Don't worry, they will definitely not let us go. There is no moon tonight, so it is suitable for a sneak attack."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Meng took off the iron bow from his back, dragged a barrel of iron arrows and put them beside him, and said excitedly: "We are prepared, but we are afraid that they won't come."
Li Xiuyuan took a breath, quietly dispersed his consciousness in all directions, left the camp, left the grass and woods, and headed towards the official road.
Li Xiuyuan is still a bit worse off now than he was in the Five Regions.
Transformation into a mortal was only half completed, and he traveled across the starry sky to Da Qin. His power was not even as good as when he was in the Five Realms.
Right now, apart from his swordsmanship, he only has magical talismans to save his life.
Perhaps, this is because the old Taoist priest is afraid that he will destroy the balance of this world, or perhaps, this is really his fate.
Before becoming a mortal, he was just an ordinary mortal.
He couldn't beat the master, and he couldn't beat Zhang Liang's mysterious master, the old man who had already seen the hope of ascension.
However, even the old Taoist priest did not know that Li Xiuyuan's spiritual consciousness was already more powerful than Nalan Ruoyu, the Jade Lord of Xuanwu Continent.
Not only because he once devoured souls in the late stages of the Fusion Realm in the backyard of Tianxiang Winery in Tianyu City.
He also devoured even more powerful guys in the prehistoric world.
Right now, he is in a mortal body, but his spiritual consciousness is extremely powerful.
The powerful spiritual consciousness gradually found a familiar feeling, the feeling that many years ago, when he was born and died in the nine abyss of hell.
At that time, he had not met Xiao Longer yet.
Relying on his powerful consciousness, he felt like walking on the edge of death again and again, fighting desperately with countless fire snakes.
Gently, Li Xiuyuan suppressed his breathing, trying to find the black shadows on the vast official road.
Not long after, Zhao Meng was anxious and wanted to ask a question.
Li Xiuyuan chuckled: "Come on, go, call your partner quietly, don't make a sound."
According to the original plan, Zhao Meng did not need to charge tonight, he only needed to lead a group of men to defend the camp.
If the monks from last night had taken action, Zhao Meng and others would have died if they had taken action.
Zhao Meng trembled all over and quietly left in front of the extinguished fire. At this time, Li Xiuyuan was already holding a cold bow and arrow in his hand.
No matter tonight or in the future, he didn't want these bandits to see his actions.
For future safety in the imperial city, he must be cold-blooded.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three iron arrows probing the way pierced the darkness and flew toward Li Xiu's pinhole guarding the entrance to the camp.
This time, Li Xiuyuan did not swing the iron bow to intercept. He took a few steps back before the iron arrow could reach his body. The iron arrow hit the grass without making any sound.
Without any reaction, Li Xiuyuan's consciousness saw a dozen black figures on the official road moving quickly up the hillside.
Obviously, the three cold branches served as a test.
If things continued like last night, Li Xiuyuan should have shouted now, telling Zhao Meng and others to attack with their swords.
But in this way, their whereabouts will be exposed, and they will not be able to attract these guys to jump into the dug trap.
Just when dozens of black figures approached the camp, Zhao Meng and half of his guards were already holding bows and arrows and lying quietly behind the carriage.
Just waiting for the enemy to step into the trap.
As Li Xiuyuan expected, there was a muffled groan in the dark night, followed by more muffled groans and even screams that pierced the quiet night.
"No, I was hit by an arrow in the trap here!"
"The wind is tight, boss, help me, I can't survive!"
The bandits who had been hit by arrows no longer cared about staying calm and started shouting wildly.
"Go up and fight them!" The bandits' roars rang out in the dark night.
In their opinion, the huge wealth and bounties in the camp are enough to make them lose their minds, not to mention that there are more people tonight than last night.
"Wait until they rush up before shooting arrows." Li Xiuyuan looked at Zhao Meng not far away and said quietly.
A battle in the dark finally broke out at this moment.
There was a sound of iron arrows flying out in the night sky, and both sides shot the iron arrows in their hands at this moment.
The difference was that the guards in the camp were covered by carriages, but the bandits who rushed up completely exposed themselves to their opponents.
The arrows from one side were fired blindly and randomly, while the iron arrows fired by Zhao Meng and a group of men shot into the bodies of the bandits mercilessly amid a whistling sound.
In the dark night, a trail of blood spreads with the wind.
