evening.
Above the Dihu Village Square, three blazing fires shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire square.
More than a hundred people were sitting on the ground around the bonfire, laughing, scolding, punching... all kinds of sounds mixed together, it was very lively.
Lu Li and Li Chenghu were sitting around a bonfire in the middle. In front of each of them were several wine jars and plates of side dishes to go with the wine. Lu Li's face turned red in the light of the fire. Under the laughter and laughter, he seemed to have returned to Dashi Village. Harvest season.
Every year during the harvest, the villagers of Dashi Village would sit around the village dam and light a bonfire. The adults would drink and chat, while the children would laugh and play games.
"Mud monkey, what did you throw on my back? It stinks so much!" Qin Shouren, who was running desperately, suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Li.
"Hahaha, it's shit, it's shit, hahaha..."
"Ah? See if I don't beat you to death..."
"..."
Lu Li seemed to see Qin Shouren rushing towards him with his fists waving. He smiled and burst into tears...
"Brother Lu, what's wrong with you?"
The girl in a skirt next to her raised her head to look at Lu Li and asked softly.
"Ah, no, it's okay." Lu Li wiped his face in panic.
"Have you...remembered the sad thing?" Lei Xiaoman looked at Lu Li blankly, "Do you miss your mother? When I think of my mother, I will be very sad..."
Lei Xiaoman said, took out a light blue embroidered handkerchief and handed it to Lu Li: "Here."
"I just remembered some past events." Lu Li took the handkerchief and wiped it before handing it back, "Thank you."
Lei Xiaoman shook his head and smiled sweetly, "It's for you."
Lu Li was slightly startled when he saw the other person's smile, then nodded and put it away.
Next to them, Li Chenghu and Lei Ming were already drunk, holding the jar, shaking their shoulders and muttering intermittently.
Chu Fankong was still awake, but when he saw Lu Li and Lei Xiaoman sitting together, he didn't come to disturb them.
Lu Li apologized to Lei Xiaoman, then moved to Chu Fankong's side, picked up the wine bowl and said, "Brother, I'll give you a toast."
"Okay, do it!" Chu Fankong seemed to have something on his mind, his eyes blurred and he drank it all in one gulp.
Lu Li endured the discomfort, stuffed his nose and drank it all in one gulp. Then, regardless of appearance, he directly reached into the dishes, grabbed a handful of cold dishes and stuffed them into his mouth, trying to cover up the discomfort in his mouth.
"Brother, don't force yourself in everything. Just drink as much wine as you want." Chu Fankong sighed.
"That's what my brother said."
"Well, you are a smart person, much smarter than me, brother. However, brother, I still have to tell you a few words. It is better to keep a low profile when you are away from home... There is no point in fighting over face."
As he said that, he took out a dusty square jade plaque from his arms and looked at it reluctantly before handing it to Lu Li: "I'm old and don't want to take risks anymore. This thing... I'll give it to you. If you If you are interested, you can go and have a look.”
The jade plate was engraved with a small sword on the front, and the word "Huang" was engraved on the back.
Lu Li was stunned, "What is this?"
Chu Fankong sighed and said: "I heard that this is the key to the Sword God's Tomb. There are eight pieces in total, and each piece is engraved with one of the eight characters 'Heaven and Earth are black and yellow, the universe is primitive'."
"The Tomb of the Sword God appears once every fifty years. It takes eight pieces to come together to open the tomb door and obtain the inheritance of the Sword God... I was young when I got it and my cultivation level was very low, so the last time the Tomb of the Sword God appeared, I didn't dare to go. Now...although I have gained some cultivation, I have lost my heart for hegemony...It's a pity, it's a pity..."
Tomb of the Sword God.
Sounds awesome?
Lu Li quickly took the jade token and said, "Brother treats me like this. If I can really get the inheritance from it in the future, I will definitely not forget him."
"Hey, okay, okay."
Chu Fankong nodded happily, drank another bowl by himself, and said:
"Calculate the time, the next time the Tomb of the Sword God appears will be ten years from now. Judging from your current growth rate, there is still some chance. But I still say the same thing, don't force everything...otherwise, I have harmed you."
Lu Li nodded and said seriously: "I remember."
After carefully putting the jade token into the Space Palace, Lu Li asked some more information about the Sword God's Tomb.
But unfortunately, Chu Fankong didn't know much about the Tomb of the Sword God.
I only know that the Tomb of the Sword God will appear in Yunzhou Wanjian Valley once every fifty years, each time lasting three months, and then disappear again after three months.
Furthermore, it is said that the tomb of the Sword God contains the inheritance of the heaven-defying swordsmanship, and if you obtain it, you can break mountains and seas. It sounds very impressive, but they are just rumors. Chu Fankong even thought that this was done deliberately to attract the key owner to open the secret realm.
When Chu Fankong got this key forty years ago, he was only twenty-five years old at the time, and his cultivation was at the third level of qi training. Because his cultivation was too low, he was cautious and just glanced at the Sword God's Tomb from a distance. left.
I thought I would give it another try in the next fifty years.
But now, he doesn't have that courage. The older a person gets, the more afraid of death he becomes.
He just wants to make progress in Dihu Village in a stable manner, or to spend the rest of his life peacefully like this.
At this time, a large number of people in the square were drunk.
Even the few who were awake had red cheeks.
Lu Li shook his head and chatted with Chu Fan for a while before standing up and preparing to return to Bihu Garden.
Upon seeing this, Lei Xiaoman quickly stood up and walked towards Lu Li: "Brother Lu, are you going back to rest?"
"Well, it's too late. I don't want to sleep in the square."
"Oh." Lei Xiaoman struggled for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to take out a storage bag from his waist and handed it to Lu Li, and said expectantly: "Brother Lu, you said that I will give you 10,000 Condensation Pills. He will protect me...just look at it."
"ah?"
Lu Li stared at Lei Xiaoman strangely. He was just fooling around at first, but he didn't expect that the other party would take him seriously. He smiled and shook his head and said, "Little girl, I'm kidding you. Where did you get such a thing?" How many congeals are there?"
"I, I borrowed it from Uncle Li."
"Borrowed it?" Lu Li glared and pushed it back, "Hurry up and give it back. I'm just kidding you, but you still take it seriously."
"Are you talking about it for fun..." Lei Xiaoman's smile disappeared in an instant. He clasped his storage bag with both hands and said with a disappointed look on his face, "I understand." Without waiting for Lu Li to say anything, he suddenly turned around and ran away.
After running home, she squatted in the yard and started crying.
Although Lu Li didn't drink a few bowls of wine, he still felt a little dizzy. When he saw Lei Xiaoman leaving, he didn't think much and went straight back to Bihu Garden.
Xiao He was still guarding the door of the courtyard. When he saw Lu Li coming back, he immediately ran over to support him, "Sir, have you drank a lot? Why do you stagger when you walk?"
"Really?" Lu Li was stunned, thinking that he didn't feel anything.
Xiao He chuckled and said, "Is there anything else? Sir, please be slow, we will hit the wall later."
