In that distant little black house

Not long after Zhang Jingmo left Lingxu Sect, a major event happened in Kuchan Valley.

Tianfeng, the younger brother of the Shaogu master of Dry Chan Valley, suddenly died a year after he was resurrected.

The suddenness of Tian Feng's death—at least from the perspective of outsiders.And because of this incident, Tianlu, the Shaogu master of Kuchan Valley, directly threatened to catch Zhang Jingmo of the Lingxu sect and skin him alive.

From the outsiders' point of view, Ku Chan Valley should be unanimous to the outside world after this incident, but Tian Wan knew in her heart that this matter was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

When approaching the one-year period, Tian Feng also had a feeling that his time was approaching, but there was no problem with his body, but he felt something in his heart, and he was anxious all day long.

Tian Wan didn't care about it at the time, but took Tian Feng's feeling as sentimentality, and comforted her: "Tian Feng, since you have already taken Tian Shu Huang Quan Dan, naturally there will be no more mistakes."

Tianfeng couldn't suppress the anxiety in his heart, he said: "Sister, don't you ever suspect that there is something wrong with Tianshu Huangquan Dan?"

Tian Wan said: "Is there a problem? What's the problem? The alchemist who made alchemy ate the elixir himself..."

Tian Feng said: "The one with the problem is naturally not the alchemist."

Tian Wan frowned upon hearing this: "Tian Feng, what nonsense are you talking about, your brother has put in so much effort into this Tian Shu Huang Quan Pill recipe, how can you doubt him."

Tian Feng was panicked, already irritable, when he heard Tian Wan's words, he said bluntly: "Sister, let me tell you something, don't say it."

Tian Wan nodded.

Then, Tianfeng slowly narrated the incident when he met Zhu Yan and Zhang Jingmo, but in his dictation, Zhang Jingmo became an evil dao wearing a mask.

Tian Wan's face became paler the more she heard it, and she said sadly: "Did that Taoist really mention your brother's name?"

Tian Feng said gloomyly: "That's right."

Tian Wan gritted her teeth, but she didn't believe it, she said: "Then why did Tian Lu go out of his way to heal you?"

Tianfeng smiled wryly: "Tianlu didn't know before that I also had the same natal Lingzhu as my sister. After I died, my sister must have begged him hard, so he managed to find the alchemy... but it was just a change. It's just a way to take my life."

Tian Wan said: "Brother, you really..."

Tianfeng said coldly: "I'm not going to joke about my life yet." When he first came back to life, he really felt full of vitality, but before a year had passed, although his body hadn't decayed, somehow, But it feels like the end is approaching.Although monks like them can't tell exactly when they will die, they can already know the approximate time.

Tian Wan wanted to cry, she said: "I don't believe your brother would do such a thing."

Tianfeng sighed: "I don't believe it either..." When he was resurrected, he also felt that he had misunderstood his brother, but within a year, this luck was shattered by cruel facts.

He is indeed dying, and there is no chance of resurrection.

Tian Wan tremblingly said: "Tianfeng, don't scare my sister, my sister has lived with you for so many years, and you are the only younger brother..." Tianlu never lived with them since he was a child. It is more of a kind of reverence and fear. If there is only one person in this world who can trade Tian Wan's life, then Tian Feng is probably the only one.

Tianfeng didn't speak, he knew that it was difficult for Tianwan to accept this reality for a while, but facts are facts, and the fact that his time is approaching is definitely not an illusion.

Tianlu didn't know about Tianfeng's situation. If he knew, he would go to Lingxu Sect to arrest Zhang Jingmo and bring him back to Kuchan Valley.

But Zhang Jingmo had already avoided it, so even if he went, he would have nothing to do.

But there is already a gap between Tianfeng and Tianlu, and this life-and-death matter will naturally not be reported to the former side without any grudges.

Afterwards, Tianwan pretended to ask Tianlu about Tianshu Huangquan Pill. Tianlu was very confident in the pill, so he bluntly said that he got it in a secret realm and it should be genuine.

His words were indifferent, which made Tian Wan's heart a little cold.

A year ago came in a blink of an eye, Tian Wan had been guarding Tian Feng for the last time, and then looked at Tian Feng, from a living person to a pile of dead bones.

Seeing this scene, Tian Wan burst into tears and burst into tears. This wicked girl who could stop a child from crying in Dry Zen Valley now cries like a child who has been greatly wronged. She holds Tian Feng's dead bones and dies He refused to let go, Tianlu's face was livid when he saw this situation, and he immediately realized that he was overwhelmed by Zhang Jingmo.

So he went directly to the Lingxu faction, this time the head didn't dodge like before, but received Tian Feng with a bad face.

Tian Feng opened his mouth to ask for Zhang Jingmo's whereabouts, and the headmaster sneered a few times, and said, "Ask him about his whereabouts. You are an outsider in Dry Zen Valley, what right do you have to ask about the whereabouts of our disciples?"

Tianfeng almost had a fit, but he held back in the end, and walked away. Since then, the relationship between Lingxu Sect and Kuchangu has deteriorated to the extreme.

Tian Wan was dubious about what Tian Feng said, but Tian Lu firmly insisted that it was the alchemist who caused the trouble, Tian Wan still had some expectations in his heart.

But this expectation quickly disappeared, because Tian Wan accidentally discovered that Luo Erdan in Zhang Jingmo's body was no longer effective.

Each Luoer Dan corresponds to a lotus flower in Jinze, and Zhang Jingmo's is a elixir that Tianlu personally selected, collected petals, and refined.

The stronger Zhang Jingmo is, the more luxuriant the lotus will bloom, and when the lotus withers, it means that Luo Hedan is no longer effective.There is no elixir in this world that can unlock the nature of Roe's elixir. Since the lotus has withered, it only means one thing - Zhang Jingmo is dead.

Tianlu was also very shocked when he saw the lotus withered. He didn't understand whether Zhang Jingmo did something wrong when he was refining alchemy, or there was something wrong with his alchemy.

Although Tianlu didn't know, this incident confirmed Tianfeng's conjecture. Even if Tianwan didn't want to believe it, the answer closest to the truth was still in front of her.

There was a problem with the prescription of Tianshu Huangquan Dan, and it was this prescription that completely ruined Tianfeng's hope of resurrection.

Zhang Jingmo, who was deep in the ground, didn't know that in this short period of one year, one of the three Kuchangu Yuanying old monsters who could have frightened the cultivation world in the future went away, and a deep line appeared between the remaining two. deep gap.

Time has lost its meaning to Zhang Jingmo. He is soaked in the spiritual liquid, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy in it.The original heart restored Zhang Jingmo's body to its peak state, and all the old injuries were repaired, and the soaked spiritual liquid improved his body all the time.

The dantian, which had been stagnant for a long time, finally showed signs of loosening. Zhang Jingmo also knew that he was about to break through, so he became more calm, and even completely forgot about the existence of Lu Guijiu.

Time flies, the spiritual energy in Zhang Jingmo's dantian is continuously concentrated and gathered, and then there is a crisp sound like jade hitting each other, Zhang Jingmo feels a light blue mist rising above his spiritual platform, and the fog surrounds the houses of the spiritual platform After a while, the walls of the house changed from stone to jade.

Zhang Jingmo's Lingtai is very ordinary, just a medium-sized town, and because of this, his teacher concluded that his future on the road to cultivating immortals is bleak, and if he doesn't encounter any miracles, he will stop no matter what On Jindan Avenue.

What Zhang Jingmo's teacher said was indeed correct. If there were no adventures, Zhang Jingmo would never break through to the reason in his life.

But this is only if, now Zhang Jingmo not only has an adventure, but also a very heaven-defying adventure, if he stops at Jindan cultivation base, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to forgive himself.

The house was replaced with a jade wall, and Zhang Jingmo was relieved. He had stayed in the early stage of Jindan for hundreds of years. Without the help of this psychic liquid, it would be foolish to break through.

This spiritual liquid not only provided rich and mellow aura, but also strengthened every meridian of Zhang Jingmo. Naturally, no one could refuse this feeling of growing strength. Zhang Jingmo was addicted to it for a while, completely forgetting the time.

There are only a few months in the cave, and a thousand years have passed in the world.

Zhang Jingmo thought he had just slept for a short nap, but when he woke up in the spiritual liquid, he realized that decades had passed.After careful calculation, he found out that he had been in the cave for 86 years.

In 86, if this was placed in the human world, it would have been a long time ago. Fortunately, Zhang Jingmo has long been used to this kind of retreat for hundreds of years, and he just let it go after a little surprise.

After he came out of the spiritual liquid, he was refreshed, and he felt that his whole body was completely new.After Zhang Jingmo sat on the bank for a while, he remembered that Lu Guijiu was still in the cave, but he didn't know what to do.

For more than 80 years, Zhang Jingmo was a little unsure whether Lu Guijiu had left here. He used the flying sword and began to look for Lu Guijiu in the cave.

Two days later, Zhang Jingmo found the trace of Lu Guijiu at the source of the spiritual vein.

There was an old flying sword stuck on the bank. After Zhang Jingmo went to investigate, he found that it was the one used by Lu Guijiu before. The broken marks on the sword were still new, so it was obviously just put on the bank.

Zhang Jingmo was bending down to check for traces of the broken sword, but suddenly felt something approaching behind him, he turned sideways, and a sword qi slashed down from his side, directly cutting the ground into a deep ravine.

With just one glance, Zhang Jingmo recognized his attacker. Isn't this indifferent man in front of him the apprentice Lu Guijiu who separated 80 years ago?

Zhang Jingmo was about to shout, but he saw Lu Guijiu raised the object in his hand again, and slashed at Zhang Jingmo heavily. This was ruthless and fast, obviously sparing no effort.

Although Zhang Jingmo dodged easily, there was still an inexplicable chill on his back. His intuition was telling him that it was dangerous, but his reason was telling him that the predecessors were only at the Qi refining stage. Where is it so strong?

Lu Guijiu didn't seem to recognize Zhang Jingmo, and he chopped down with one sword after another. Zhang Jingmo originally planned to call Lu Guijiu to stop him, but then he changed his mind and wanted to see how Lu Guijiu's cultivation achievements were.

Seeing that Lu Guijiu couldn't kill the person in front of him, the gloomy look on his face became more intense, and a purple flame instantly ignited between his hands, turning his whole body into an afterimage.

Zhang Jingmo's eyes showed a little astonishment. He vaguely saw a dragon in the shape of a dragon haunting Lu Guijiu's body. , full of oppression.

The two kept fighting in the cave, Zhang Jingmo didn't fight back, but kept dodging and moving, and Lu Guijiu's speed did get faster and faster as Zhang Jingmo dodged, and in the end both of them seemed to disappear , can only hear the slight sound of the friction of the sleeves from time to time.

The more Lu Guijiu got angry, he seemed to be going crazy. He didn't care that in this cave, the flames on his body became hotter, and he actually started to melt the surrounding rocks.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingmo also knew that there might be accidents if he continued, so he stopped dodging, simply stood where he was, and took Lu Guijiu's knife with one hand.

Lu Guijiu tried his best with this knife, but Zhang Jingmo only scratched a few inches of skin.It's just that although the skin was only broken, Zhang Jingmo felt that the purple flame burned his palm sorely. After he looked carefully, he found that the purple flame began to spread along his elbow and spread towards his body.

Zhang Jingmo restrained the purple flame with spiritual energy, and sighed in his mouth: "Puijiu, I haven't seen you for more than 80 years, and you gave me such a meeting gift?"

Lu Guijiu's face was full of irritability, he wondered why the fantasy hadn't disappeared this time, it usually disappeared completely after being slapped twice by him, but this time he still wanted to say a few words.

Seeing that Lu Guijiu didn't answer, Zhang Jingmo was stunned when he even showed boredom in his eyes: "Gujiu? Why don't you treat him as a teacher?"

Lu Guijiu glared at Zhang Jingmo fiercely, then lifted the long sword he got from somewhere in his hand, and it seemed that he planned to continue attacking again.

Zhang Jingmo did not expect such a scene at all, and Lu Guijiu's reaction was completely beyond his comprehension...

Lu Guijiu spat very disdainfully, and said, "What the hell, get lost."

Zhang Jingmo: "..."

Lu Guijiu said again: "If you don't get out, I'll beat you to death."

Zhang Jingmo: "...the ghost socket."

Hearing the voice calling him, Lu Guijiu became more and more irritable. He said angrily, "Don't pretend to be my master. If you don't believe me, you have to come here once. Let me tell you, you are such a bastard, you can't prevent it." An inch of master's demeanor!"

Zhang Jingmo: "...Oh?"

Lu Guijiu sneered a few times: "I still thought you were amazing, but I didn't expect it to be more and more regressive. Before that, I was at least the same as my master, but now..."

Zhang Jingmo probably guessed that Lu Guijiu had encountered something, he couldn't laugh or cry: "What's the matter now?"

Lu Guijiu sneered, "My master has white hair, but you have black hair, it's ridiculous."

Zhang Jingmo looked at Lu Guijiu helplessly, and sighed again: "Gujiu, I didn't lie to you, my teacher is back."

Lu Guijiu stared at Zhang Jingmo coldly. After staring for a long time, the expression on his face gradually disappeared.

Zhang Jingmo couldn't figure out what Lu Guijiu was thinking, he could only say: "I didn't die as a teacher..."

Lu Guijiu didn't answer.

Zhang Jingmo said: "The ghost socket?"

Lu Guijiu's throat moved up and down, but his expression didn't change. He said indifferently, "You say you are my master, but what evidence do you have?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "What evidence is needed for this?"

Lu Guijiu immediately said: "Then you are lying to me." He said firmly, but after he finished speaking, he lightly pressed his chest and said softly, "My master has been with me all the time. "

Zhang Jingmo was horrified by Lu Guijiu's change of expression, he lost his patience and said bluntly, "Lu Guijiu, let me say it again, I'm not dead."

Lu Guijiu said, "Are you alive?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Indeed."

Lu Guijiu sneered, and said, "You're not dead, so what is this?" After he finished speaking, he took out a blood-red lump of meat from his bosom, and Zhang Jingmo took a closer look, only to realize that it was his Heart—he didn't expect that Lu Guijiu would keep this until now.

Zhang Jingmo saw that Lu Guijiu refused to believe it, so he had to tell him how to plan and how to resurrect him, but he found an excuse for him to deceive Lu Guijiu, saying that he was not sure whether he would survive, That's why I said such a thing to Lu Guijiu, fearing that Lu Guijiu's fighting spirit would disappear when he watched him die.

Lu Guijiu listened expressionlessly, but there was no emotion in his eyes. After he finished listening, he gave Zhang Jingmo a few cold glances.

Zhang Jingmo thought he didn't believe it, and wanted to explain again, but he didn't want Lu Guijiu to say indifferently: "I believe it."

Zhang Jingmo was stunned.

Lu Guijiu nodded. He walked to Zhang Jingmo's side, lowered his head and stared at Zhang Jingmo's face. After a while, he said again in a hoarse voice: "I believe it."

Without the ecstasy of reunion, without the anger after knowing that he was deceived, Lu Guijiu seemed to have lost his emotions, but just uttered three words with a blank face-I believe it.

Zhang Jingmo saw this, for some reason, he felt a rare anxiety in his heart, and he comforted him softly: "Gujiu, are you angry with Master?"

Lu Guijiu said indifferently: "Guijiu dare not."

Zhang Jingmo said: "As a teacher, this is also a helpless move. As a teacher, I can't be sure whether the medicine will work..."-this statement is naturally a lie. If there is no [-]% certainty, Zhang Jingmo will never take his own life joke.

Unexpectedly, Lu Guijiu laughed when he heard Zhang Jingmo's explanation, and said, "Then I want to ask, Master, have you ever thought about what if the medicine doesn't work?"

Zhang Jingmo was dumbfounded.

Lu Guijiu said: "You haven't even thought about me, if the medicine doesn't work, what will happen?"

Zhang Jingmo: "Puijiu, you are really angry."

Lu Guijiu smiled calmly, but there was a purple smooth flow in his eyes, he said: "Master, Guijiu, don't dare to be angry with Master." After he finished speaking, he turned the sword in his hand to the side The chopping actually cut out a gully several tens of feet wide.

Now Zhang Jingmo was more sure of his guess - Lu Guijiu was really angry, and it seemed that he was still very angry.

Zhang Jingmo, who had never coaxed people before, was troubled now. He was thinking about how to coax Lu Guijiu so that he would not be so angry...
