In a dense forest near the mountain road.
Su Mo stepped on a branch.
Through the trivial gaps cut out by the leaves.
He stared calmly at the scene not far below.
Su Mo admired himself for being able to find this place in time.
I thought that Zhang Rulong would be severely injured at the hands of Luo Xinhu, leaving indelible wounds.
Or maybe Zhang Rulong had some kind of trump card, which severely injured Huoxinhu and made him unable to kill him, and then made him escape.
All regrets are nothing more than these two.
But what he never expected was that a third party would break into this battlefield.
Looking at the free and uninhibited green-robed Taoist not far away, especially the slightly familiar young face.
Su Mo recognized it immediately. This was the most amazing mage in history, Zhang Qinghu!
He never expected that he would see each other here and in this way.
This kind of encounter that spanned thousands of years always gave Su Mo a feeling of a world gone through.
But soon, this feeling disappeared quickly.
Because he found that Zhang Qinghu is still too young now.
He looked to be in his early thirties, a good age to be ambitious and embark on a big career.
And his strength has not reached its peak, and he has not even reached the mage level. He is only at level 8 now.
But even at level 8, they can still suppress the demon slayers and guards sent by the county guard.
Not to mention that there is only level 6 in front of me, but in fact, the combat power is far inferior to the level 6 Luo Xinhu.
With an attitude of watching a drama, Su Mo was ready to watch the subsequent developments of the incident.
At this moment, something happened on the field.
The confused fox was stunned for a moment after the arrow was struck down by lightning.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up a few crushed iron pieces from the carriage without hesitation, and shot them towards Zhang Rulong like rain.
At the same time, the whole person quickly transformed into a gray fox with shiny hair, and suddenly jumped towards the dense forest on the side.
This operation was extremely smooth and slippery, as if it had been practiced thousands of times.
Before Zhang Rulong could react, the pieces of broken iron carrying the strong wind had already shot towards him, trying to sieve him through.
"As expected of the cunning Confused Heart Fox, it seems that all his strength is focused on his head."
With a sigh, more than a dozen stones suddenly shot out from Zhang Rulong's back, hitting the iron pieces one by one.
Three of them even made a special turn and went around him, smashing the pieces of iron that came towards him.
This scene almost made Zhang Rulong lose his mind.
But soon, he understood -
"Practitioner!"
"This is a practitioner!!"
Before he could recover from the shock, a scream suddenly came from the forest.
Immediately afterwards, the green-robed Taoist walked out from inside carrying the dead fox.
"A sixth-grade Confused Heart Fox, plus some other precious materials, can barely make a high-grade magic weapon.
Hiss, when you think about it, there is no difference between us humans and monsters.
Monsters eat people, and humans get rid of the monsters. Whoever is stronger is justice. "
Listening to this narration, Zhang Rulong was slightly stunned, and then quickly thanked:
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for getting rid of this monster and seeking justice for the many people who died tragically!"
Zhang Qinghu held the demon fox in his arms and didn't take it seriously:
"There's no need to thank you. I just want to use it as a weapon refining material."
With that said, he walked straight towards the county seat.
Zhang Qinghu thought for a while and quickly caught up.
After that, the two of them walked and talked, mostly Zhang Rulong talking and Zhang Qinghu listening.
During this period, Zhang Rulong proposed to become a disciple for the first time, but Zhang Qinghu refused without hesitation.
The reason is that I am alone, I feel at home all over the world, and I hate burdensomeness.
Zhang Rulong doesn’t have much
Disappointed, but not discouraged, obviously he plans to continue looking for opportunities to become a disciple.
But when the two were about to reach the county seat, what happened in front of them shocked them.
Because there are a large number of monsters attacking the city crazily.
Looking around, there were dark figures everywhere.
The number of monsters is simply beyond imagination.
Except for a very few monsters who were born with intelligence.
Most of them are mutated giant ants with little intelligence.
Many monsters swarmed to attack the city. If it were normal times, the small Dajue County would have been bulldozed long ago.
Fortunately, the county guard's soldiers and demon exterminators just arrived in the city.
At this moment, the two sides were fighting fiercely near the city wall.
Although the demon slayers were barely able to hold on.
But the number of monsters is too many.
Over time, loopholes will inevitably appear in the defense line.
And once the monsters invade the city, the people in the city have almost no power to fight back against these ferocious monsters.
Zhang Rulong seemed to be able to see the horrific scene of the city being destroyed and corpses strewn everywhere.
The next second, Zhang Qinghu rushed out beside him.
Seeing this, Zhang Rulong gritted his teeth, took out his few arrows, and shot the giant ants nearby.
Although there were many monsters, they were quickly suppressed when Zhang Rulong, an eighth-level master, entered the scene.
Some scattered monsters also fled towards the distance.
Su Mo stood nearby and watched.
I cooked a few unlucky guys who passed by.
Immediately afterwards, from the conversation between Zhang Rulong and Ji Chang, the commander of the city defense, Su Mo understood the causes and consequences of this demonic chaos.
It actually has something to do with the confused heart fox that has turned into a corpse.
In order to avoid being chased by the demon slayer, the other party released the demon inducing powder in the city, attracting many monsters and distracting the demon slayer and others.
It can be said that this guy is really impeccable in his work. Even if he is not strong, he is extremely harmful.
If he hadn't bumped into Zhang Qinghu accidentally, he would have probably let him escape.
Witnessing this scene before his eyes, Su Mo deeply understood the difficulties of the Dharma-ending era.
Not only because it is difficult for human beings to practice cultivation, but also because monsters and other disasters are far more frequent and terrifying than in later generations.
Adding and subtracting the two, it is really incredible that human beings can survive successfully.
Just as Su Mo was thinking, he saw Zhang Rulong becoming apprentice to Zhang Qinghu again.
Perhaps Zhang Rulong's performance in killing demons just now moved him, so Zhang Qinghu did not refuse.
Instead, he took out two paper balls from his body and said to Zhang Rulong:
"Among the two paper balls in my hand, one of them records a Qi training method.
Although there is nothing written on the other paper ball, if you catch it, you can become my registered disciple and accept my teachings. "
"Now, it's your choice."
Zhang Rulong looked at the two paper balls in his hand and hesitated for a moment.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and grabbed the paper ball on Zhang Qinghu's left hand.
However, before he could catch it, a gust of wind suddenly blew by, blowing the paper ball to the ground.
See this scene.
Zhang Rulong and Zhang Qinghu both looked at each other.
Zhang Rulong was surprised that the timing of this gust of wind was so clever.
Zhang Qinghu was surprised - how could a mere breeze blow the paper ball away from his hand?
But the scene that happened before him could not tolerate his disbelief.
He looked around suspiciously, but saw nothing.
At this time, Zhang Rulong had made up his mind and suddenly grabbed the paper ball on the right.
After catching it, he couldn't wait to unfold it.
There is a Qi training method clearly recorded inside.
Zhang Rulong's face was full of shock and disappointment.
Looking at the edge of the illusion that suddenly shattered not far away.
Su Mo suddenly understood.
It turns out that Zhang Rulong regretted that his choice was wrong.
He probably thought that if he had chosen another paper ball at that time, he would definitely become Zhang Qinghu's registered disciple.
But what he didn't know was that Zhang Qinghu's two pieces of paper recorded the same Qi training method.
He had no intention of taking on a disciple.
Shenglong twenty-seven years.
In an inn somewhere on the official road.
It seemed very lively inside.
Several shabby square tables were filled with guests.
"Boss, boil two pots of hot wine, cut five kilograms of beef, and serve some side dishes."
As the words fell, six people walked into the dusty outside.
Except for the handsome young man in the lead.
The five people behind him were all powerful men with burly bodies, but they were vaguely divided into two groups, and they were quite hostile to each other.
Zhang Rulong put down the long knife in his hand, looked at the people confronting him behind him, and greeted with a smile:
"Stop standing around. Sit down and have something to eat. We have to go on the road later."
After hearing this, everyone sat down in silence.
Although there were obviously a large number of people, the scene was extremely deserted.
Zhang Rulong seemed a little uncomfortable and tried to persuade a few people:
"As a bystander, it's a bit inappropriate from my perspective.
But you are also too persistent.
Isn't it just a horse?
As for shouting about beating and killing?
There is absolutely no need to get into a fight over something as trivial as stealing a horse.
In fact, that horse..."
Zhang Rulong sat at the table and persuaded.
In his opinion, although these five friends he met on the road are not practitioners, they can still be called strong men. Their strength is much stronger than ordinary people, and is not even weaker than low-level practitioners.
Unexpectedly, a fight broke out over a horse, and weapons were exchanged on the spot, which made Zhang Rulong feel extremely puzzled.
In the end, he relied on his level 4 strength to convince everyone, provided his own horses, and brought them here, preparing to resolve the conflict while they were eating.
But Zhang Rulong would never have imagined that the conflict between them had nothing to do with something like horses.
The five people on the field were Yu Hongfei, two people from the Civil Security Bureau, and He Shenggong, three people from the Guild of Guild.
In the previous secret realm, Yu Hongfei traveled through time and became Wei Tianci, the leader of the Money Gang, fished out a member of the Secret Order and killed him on the spot.
I thought I could catch more members, and even directly wiped out the whole army of the Guild.
Who would have thought that the other party had gathered together a long time ago, and the three of them joined forces to kill Zhou Yang, who had just been promoted on his side.
Later, he sent his gang to hunt down the three people, but the three people found an opportunity to get rid of Zhang Rulong's regrets, causing the illusion to collapse.
Then they fell into this second illusion.
This time Yu Hongfei didn't have the bonus of his identity, but with the previously agreed contact code, he quickly found Wei Cang.
Immediately afterwards, the key figure was found, Zhang Rulong.
Now Zhang Rulong has become a fourth-level practitioner and has already left Dajue County. He is practicing outside and eliminating demons on the road.
They approached each other in time and made friends with each other.
After that, I joined a convoy, gathered together to go on the road, and made many friends.
Until that day, Yu Hongfei and Wei Cang were brushing the horses and accidentally said they wanted to buy a soft-bristled brush on Taobao.
The three people opposite suddenly changed their colors, realized each other's identities, and started fighting on the spot.
However, here they couldn't exert their external strength at all, and in the end, everyone was easily suppressed by Zhang Rulong, a level 4.
Yu Hongfei, He Shenggong and others looked at each other with angry eyes, but they couldn't fight.
And more importantly, they all know that to break the illusion, they must be tied to Zhang Rulong.
Both sides suppressed their hatred and made a tacit agreement not to move.
hand.
At this time, the waiter also brought the hot food and wine.
"Guests, your food and drinks are here, please use them with ease."
Looking at the pot of wine, Yu Hongfei suddenly asked:
"Little Wei, do you know why people in ancient times boiled wine before drinking it?"
Wei Cang did not hesitate and replied directly:
"In ancient times, most people drank rice wine. After boiling the rice wine, it tasted more mellow and sweet, and it was not easy to get drunk. Chinese website
In addition, drinking hot wine in winter can easily warm the body and help resist the wind and cold.
But the most important thing is the third point. The ancient wine-making technology was not perfect, and the detection technology was not very good. Wine often contained many impurities, especially methanol, acetaldehyde and other ingredients that are harmful to the body. Drinking it all year round can even cause injury. Life, heating before drinking can quickly evaporate these harmful substances and reduce harm to the body.
Ancient people may not understand these principles, but as long as they watch people who drink hot wine live longer, they will naturally learn it. "
"You're right."
Yu Hongfei opened the lid of a pot of wine and then asked:
"Then here's the question. It's obviously scalded wine, and all the harmful substances should have evaporated. Why is there poison in this wine?"
The waiter standing by the table suddenly stiffened.
Wei Cang raised his hand and struck at him.
The waiter suddenly changed color and staggered back.
A bit of silver light suddenly shot from the distance.
Zhang Rulong raised his hand and threw out the wine glass.
There was an explosion, the wine glass hit the dart and exploded into countless pieces.
And Wei Cang suddenly chopped off the waiter's head with one knife.
His headless corpse twitched and immediately transformed into a sturdy black-haired pig demon.
"If I had known, I would have tricked him into drinking."
Zhang Rulong looked regretful.
"This guy must have eaten people before. Are you able to do this?"
Yu Hongfei's face was full of disgust.
He Shenggong on the opposite side looked dismissively:
"Then there are still many people who like to eat nine-turn large intestine."
At this time, the old shopkeeper behind the counter said in a dull voice:
"It's rare to encounter so many meats. Don't let any of them escape today!"
As the words fell, the diners on several nearby tables transformed into their true bodies one after another.
Either a pig demon, a bull demon, or a fish demon, none of them have human form, and they are full of evil aura.
Seeing them gathering together in perfect harmony, Zhang Rulong's eyes were cold:
"Looking at your skillful cooperation, you must have eaten a lot of people, right? It's rare for me to come here today to seek justice for the countless innocent souls who died here!"
There were sounds of killing.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the gray wolf head of the old shopkeeper was cut off, but there was not much joy on Zhang Rulong's face.
"Any questions?"
Wei Cang was panting, glanced around, and asked rather strangely:
"Haven't all the monsters been killed?"
Zhang Rulong picked up someone's waist card.
Looking at the badge, he sighed and said:
"This is the ginseng plate for ginseng pickers in Santu Town."
"The ginseng collectors are considered the strongest group of people in Santu Town."
"Even if they are broken off, Santu Town must be gone."
"We are still a step too late after all."
