On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the wind and snow in the sky became lighter.
After breakfast, Li Xiuyuan watched Xiao Die'er and Crow go out and head to the east side of the town. He didn't take back his consciousness until they entered the old woman's yard.
Different from yesterday, Li Xiuyuan got up early this morning.
Before Xiaodieer and Crow got up, they cooked the porridge, clanged the hammer, and banged it hard for an hour.
Four spiritual swords have been formed. Among them, Xiaodie'er and Wu Suyun's spiritual swords will be tempered and released in a few days.
He branded three restrictions on Wu Suyun's spiritual sword because he didn't know what kind of cultivation Wu Suyun would have in the end.
As for Xiaodie'er's spiritual sword, he also left three marks.
The first path is the difference between before becoming mortal and after becoming mortal. As for the remaining two paths, he doesn't know.
After all, this method was taught to him by the old Taoist master.
He planned to finish the spiritual swords of Buli Monk and Yuwen Liuli when he arrived at Meishan. After all, there was still tens of thousands of years of ice there, so their spiritual swords could be better tempered.
The key is that he doesn't know when the two of them will wake up from Nirvana, so there is no need to rush this matter.
There were two long knives and six iron swords piled on the ground. He planned to use them tomorrow to cast some ordinary iron arrows, and then carve them into ordinary talisman arrows.
Leave it for Xiaodie'er and Crow, so that you can use it for self-defense and life-saving when you are not around them in the future.
To be honest, he didn't want to be separated from Xiaodie'er and Crow in Meishan.
If the master hadn't said those words, one word would wake him up from the dream.
Li Xiuyuan always thought that this road to heaven was the road to heaven for him, Crow, and Xiao Die'er.
But they forgot one thing. Xiaodie'er was able to embark on this heavenly road because of the master's compassion, not because of his ability as a disciple.
It was because of the unwillingness in his heart that he had to prepare more thoughts for the two of them before leaving.
Crow already has a sword of gods and demons, and Xiaodie'er still lacks a mortal sword. This is not a troublesome thing for him as a master.
He didn't even ask for last night's spoils, and gave them all to Crow and Xiaodie'er.
He can't always be by their side, so he should do as much as possible for them.
I closed the courtyard door, thinking about the ice and snow on the eaves on both sides of the street in the distance, which still showed no sign of melting, and thought that spring here really came very late.
What made him angry was that even the Seventh Elder of Yulong Yushan was helpless at times. He had clearly settled the differences with him, but could not stop the Fifth Elder from pursuing him.
The Xuanwu land, which he thought was peaceful on earth, turned out to be a heavenly road that he needed to conquer.
He stood in silence in front of the courtyard door for a long time, and then used his spiritual consciousness to look at Xiao Die'er and Crow, laughing happily in the old woman's living room.
Watching the villagers coming and going in the market, there are already hard-working villagers and businessmen starting to open their doors early for business.
As he turned around, he felt a slight change in the air in his yard.
Although Li Xiuyuan was still blind at the moment, he could still detect the slightest chill around him, the tiniest traces in the air, and the most incomprehensible changes.
Just outside the door of the living room, there are still five feet away from his sword-making platform, and there are still twenty feet away from the courtyard gate where he is.
A black and white figure stood there quietly like a ghost, looking at him silently.
Li Xiuyuan sighed, opened the two formations inside and outside the courtyard, and asked quietly: "Tell me, how did you get into my courtyard."
Asking himself, he didn't have any opportunities except opening the door to send Xiaodieer and Crow away.
It is said that Xiao Die'er and Crow Crow are both people who are very alert to danger. They should immediately detect the sudden danger around them and then make the most correct judgment.
The only explanation is that this person came mysteriously, and Xiaodie'er and Crow's thoughts were already out of the door, so they would not pay attention to whether danger had sneaked into their yard in an instant.
The man dressed in black with his face covered was silent for a moment, and then replied coldly: "As a qualified killer, I can naturally find the best opportunity."
Killing people in Lantian Town and wanting Li Xiuyuan's life in front of him was what the killer wanted.
And he can't make too much noise, otherwise he won't be able to protect everything, and there will be police behind him at the next moment, who will plot against him at the last moment.
Therefore, he decided to let the two children leave first, and then face the blind boy alone.
This is the best moment to get started.
Different from the previous six people, this one was a top-notch killer. His cultivation was already at the middle stage of the Fusion Realm. He watched the six bandits die in the snow.
Then he summed up his experiences and lessons, and finally came to the conclusion that the young man in front of him was just possessed of evil powers.
And for his level of cultivation, the magic method is really not worth mentioning.
Just as Li Xiuyuan opened the door and walked onto the street, watching Xiao Die'er and Crow leave, he was like a cat, or like a drop of water, sneaking into the courtyard with the help of an invisibility charm.
He didn't even bother to assassinate the blind boy. He wanted Li Xiuyuan to die clearly.
Li Xiuyuan sighed softly, looked at the black and white figure locked in his consciousness, and said quietly: "You shouldn't show your body, you missed the best opportunity."
Because he was making swords before, when he got up, he didn't bother to open the formation, because he himself was a formation.
And at this moment, when he realized that he had been careless and opened the two formations, the atmosphere of heaven and earth changed instantly.
This is his absolute world.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan, who was wearing a green shirt, the visitor said with emotion: "It is rumored that you like to wear black shirts. Why did you suddenly change into green clothes today? Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
...
In the old woman's yard, Xiaodieer and Crow ate melon seeds while listening to the old woman telling stories.
In the end, Xiaodie'er couldn't help but tell the story about how she and Wu Wu met the bandits, but they didn't mention the master's last move.
The old woman was startled when she heard this, and then murmured to herself: "It's been a long time since bandits came to Lantian Town."
Xiao Die'er sighed and said, "Grandma, you won't be able to see it when you stay in the house! After we ate sweet potatoes at Grandma's house that day, we met bad people when we went out."
"But, it doesn't look like you and Little Crow can kill those bandits!" The old woman sighed and said quietly.
Xiao Die'er suddenly smiled, bent her eyes and said, "My master said the same thing, saying that Xiao Die'er's hands are suitable for playing the piano and should not be used for killing people..."
The old woman looked at the old man with a white beard in front of her and said seriously: "Old man, how could there be bandits here? The villagers here are very poor. It is not worth them coming from Niujiao Town..."
The old man with a white beard sighed, looked at Xiao Die'er and said with a bitter smile: "This world is no longer the world we knew before. People's hearts are unpredictable."
The old man understands very clearly that the current world is no longer what it was when he was young.
The killers and bandits who naturally roamed the world were no longer the killers and bandits they had seen back then.
Xiao Die'er ate another melon seed and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, Xiao Die'er is afraid of death. They wanted my life and my junior brother's, so I had to chop off their heads."
The old woman sighed and said, "We will leave here tomorrow and go back to Yinchuan City. Go back and ask your master if you want to leave with us?"
In the eyes of the old woman, some villagers in Lantian Town may never have been to Yinchuan City in their entire lives because of the kindness of Xiao Die'er and Crow Crow.
After discussing with the white-bearded old man for a few days, she decided to take the three masters and apprentices to Yinchuan City.
The old man with a white beard smiled: "We have some friends there. As long as you follow me, you won't be afraid of the bandits and killers in the world coming to trouble you."
The crow didn't say anything when he heard this. It was not his fault. In the end, the master had to make the decision.
But Xiaodie'er thought about how her master's sword in the wind could be afraid of the killer from Yinchuan City. Besides, she didn't want to implicate the old woman and grandfather in front of her.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Die'er finally replied: "Old lady, the master said we can't cause trouble to others, so Xiao Die'er can't leave with you."
The old woman was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid of those bandits?"
Shaking her head, Xiao Die'er replied: "Master said that if you are afraid of bandits and killers coming to trouble you, you might as well give up practicing. Xiao Die'er and junior brother are not afraid."
In the hearts of Xiao Die'er and Crow Crow, it is naturally safer to follow the master.
Not to mention, the master will take the two of them to Meishan to meet the saint, so they will no longer think about Yinchuan City.
Even if we want to go, the most we can do is go shopping with the master to buy some clothes and boots, and then head to the legendary Meishan Mountain.
The old woman glanced at the old man with a white beard and sighed softly.
After a long time, he made up his mind, pulled Xiaodie'er and said, "It would be great if my mother-in-law had a granddaughter like you... We will come here again next winter..."
Xiao Die'er shook her head. She worked hard to follow her junior brother to Meishan, fearing that she would have to stay there next winter to celebrate the New Year.
However, she couldn't explain this to the old woman in front of her because she hadn't been there yet.
After being stunned for a long time, Xiao Die'er murmured back: "Master said that when spring comes and the flowers bloom, he will take Xiao Die'er and his junior brother to see the outside world..."
"Then, tell your master and come back here next year, okay?"
The old woman took Xiaodie'er's hand and said seriously: "Next winter, my mother-in-law will give you a big surprise."
"Okay, I'll go back and talk to the master. I also like the old lady and grandpa."
Seeing the reluctance in the old man's eyes, Xiao Die'er couldn't refuse for a moment.
If the master is not here next year, I would like to ask the sage master on Meishan Mountain to come and live together in Lantian Town for a few days.
The old woman smiled and nodded.
He said to the crow: "My mother-in-law and grandpa will leave tomorrow. We will stay here for lunch today and go home after eating."
The crow thought about how early it was after lunch, so he wasn't afraid.
So he laughed and said: "It's okay, the master just told me and my senior sister to go home early, for fear of encountering bad people on the road."
...
Li Xiuyuan withdrew his consciousness from looking at Xiao Die'er and Crow Crow, and nodded gently.
He replied quietly: "That's right, I used to wear black clothes. It can withstand stains and doesn't need to be washed frequently. My disciple bought this clothes and I only wear them during the Chinese New Year."
"It seems that the disciple you came here is indeed a good one, and he knows how to respect his master." The man in black replied.
Li Xiuyuan took a step forward, walked out from under the eaves of the courtyard gate, and walked towards the living room step by step, as if there was no killer who wanted to kill him.
After thinking for a while, he asked: "I don't seem to have offended you, why do you want to kill me?"
The man in black smiled coldly, looked at him and replied: "Of course you need a reason to kill, otherwise I would not have come all the way from Yinchuan City. I will not do anything that is not beneficial."
Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand, caught a few snowflakes from the wind, and asked calmly: "I still want to know who the person behind you is."
The man in black looked at the young man trembling slightly in the cold wind, and felt a little proud in his heart. This was the lamb under his sword.
After thinking for a while, he replied: "You are going to die anyway, so I'm not afraid to tell you that I have a brother in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, his name is Dongfang Yumin."
