In that distant little black house

Zhang Jingmo's temper is actually not very good.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have held grudges for several lifetimes because of what Lu Guijiu did to him.And because of Lu Guijiu, Zhang Jingmo also doesn't like others to touch him, so when facing Gu Niancang's malicious teasing, he didn't save Gu Niancang any face.

In the auction house before, Zhang Jingmo felt a very oppressive gaze, but Gu Niancang in front of him was only at the foundation establishment stage, so he was obviously not the master of that gaze.

A mouthful of Zhu Yan's Zhiyang spiritual fire quickly set the whole room on fire.

Standing in the flames, Gu Niancang looked at Zhang Jingmo with an unusually indifferent expression, and said, "My father would put all his hopes on a person like you. I heard that you have been to the top of the Kunlun Mountains. I don't know which sect you are from." little master."

Zhang Jingmo didn't know what Gu Niancang meant, and he didn't care. With a wave of his hand, the spiritual fire in the house became more vigorous, and the whole room was about to be burned in an instant.

Gu Niancang said coldly: "You're looking for death." As he spoke, he shook out a long silk that was as black as ink and exuded a strange fragrance. Zhang Jingmo only took a sip before he realized something was wrong. , quickly sealed the five orifices with spiritual energy.

Gu Niancang immediately attacked with Chang Ling, Zhang Jingmo moved left and right, and the two fought from inside to outside.

The auction place of Ju Tao was near the sea, and it was already dark at this time, and there was no one around. The two people who were fighting were not noticed by others for a while.

Zhang Jingmo didn't want to fight.After all, Kunhai, where the giant gluttons are located, is their sphere of influence. As an outsider, Zhang Jingmo will suffer no matter how he fights.

With a low drink in his mouth, the aura in his body soared.

Gu Niancang didn't notice for a while, and was hurt by Zhang Jingmo's sword energy. He looked at Zhang Jingmo for a few times, and then smiled: "You are already a Jindan cultivator."

Zhang Jingmo didn't reply a word, but the offensive was even more fierce.

Gu Niancang's cultivation was in the late stage of foundation establishment, and he originally thought that bullying Chen Baicang, who was in the middle stage of foundation establishment, would be enough.But I didn't expect the person in front of me to hide his strength. In addition to Zhang Jingmo's rich experience in actual combat, Gu Niancang was defeated steadily under Zhang Jingmo's offensive.

Zhang Jingmo's subordinates showed no mercy, and only wanted a quick decision.

However, the more wounds Gu Niancang suffered, the brighter his smile became. However, there was a vicious taste in this smile, and he said: "Chen Baicang——I remember you."

After his words fell, Zhang Jingmo's sword was about to pass through his chest.The black silk in Gu Niancang's hand blocked Zhang Jingmo's sword, but was cut off directly. He took a few steps back, and said in a dark voice: "You are so ruthless."

Zhang Jingmo really wanted to say something bluntly to the person in front of him: Are you sick?There are many people who Zhang Jingmo is sorry for, but Gu Chenshan and Gu Chenjiang will never be included in it.

Not to mention, this Gu Niancang, who has never met before him, always troubles Zhang Jingmo whenever he shows up—and this inexplicable name, Gu Niancang?Zhang Jingmo was very glad that he didn't tell Gu Chenjiang his real name, otherwise he would probably be disgusted to death.

Zhang Jingmo didn't want to respond to Gu Niancang's words, he just wanted to hurry up and chop the person in front of him with a sword.But this kind of thinking is obviously not in line with reality, because Zhang Jingmo felt the strong gaze that Zhang Jingmo felt at the auction before, and Zhang Jingmo felt it again.And this time, this gaze looked at Zhang Jingmo as if looking at a dead person.

Zhang Jingmo's eyes sank slightly, but the movements in his hands stopped, and he said coldly: "Come out." As soon as these three words were uttered, Zhang Jingmo suddenly raised his figure, and saw that where he was originally, was unexpectedly There was a row of densely packed spirit swords piercing, these spirit swords were no more than a finger laughing, but counting roughly, there were as many as a hundred.

When Zhang Jingmo saw the sword array, his heart moved, and he guessed the identity of the person who came.

He guessed the identity of the visitor, the originally nervous expression on his face calmed down, and said in his mouth: "Da Yan Mansion?"

After a while, a woman appeared in front of Zhang Jingmo. This woman's appearance was somewhat similar to Gu Niancang's, and she was obviously related by blood.

She didn't expect Zhang Jingmo to call out her identity in one breath, with an ugly expression.

Zhang Jingmo put a fake smile on his face, bowed to the woman in front of him, and said: "Bai Cang didn't know that the seniors of Dayan Mansion were here, but Bai Cang was a little curious. The majestic Dayan Mansion also came out." Moxiu?"

The woman said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about, who is the demon cultivator? Boy, be careful when you speak, or you will be careful with your tongue."

Zhang Jingmo said expressionlessly, "Oh, maybe Bai Cang misread it."

Gu Niancang was covered in wounds from Zhang Jing's ink, and he didn't cry at this moment, but smiled all over his face, he said: "Zuzu, you chopped off his limbs, how about sending them to me?"

Hearing this sentence, Zhang Jingmo's eyes became colder.

The woman who Gu Niancang called Zuzu in the cup looked at Gu Niancang with an extra loving look, and she said: "Not this time, how about next time?"

Gu Niancang seemed a little dissatisfied: "Zuzu, you promised me before."

The woman said: "Be obedient." In her eyes, Zhang Jingmo's cultivation level was no more than Foundation Establishment, and with her late Golden Core cultivation level, crushing a Foundation Establishment cultivator to death is not as good as crushing a bug, so she agreed immediately. .But now Zhang Jingmo has exposed the mid-term cultivation of the Golden Core. Although she is still not afraid, for some reasons, she does not want to cause a war on the Kunhai Sea at this time.

Zhang Jingmo's expression was a bit of a smile but not a smile, but the eyes he looked at Gu Niancang were icy cold.

Gu Niancang said: "Zu Cur, do you want to let him go? He already knows me..."

The woman interrupted Gu Niancang: "He doesn't know anything." Then she turned her head and said to Zhang Jingmo expressionlessly, "Is that right?"

In normal times, Zhang Jingmo would definitely taunt women.With his current cultivation base, unless Nascent Soul is an old monster, he is capable of a battle.After he guessed the girl's sect, he reckoned that he was [-]% sure of winning it.

But now he has more important things to do, so it's okay to hold back for the time being.

So Zhang Jingmo pretended to be annoyed and said, "You said I didn't see it, so you didn't see it?"

The woman seemed to disdain Zhang Jingmo very much, she said, "Otherwise, what do you think?"

Zhang Jingmo muttered for a while, but couldn't say a word, perfectly showing an image of wanting to save face, but afraid that Haikou would not be able to clean up after boasting.

When the woman saw this, the disdain in her eyes deepened: "Say it."

Zhang Jingmo hesitated for a moment, but suddenly remembered something. He said deliberately: "I came here to buy things! You haven't given me the Dunhuang lantern I took before. If you Give it to me, I, I will pretend that this never happened."

The woman said coldly: "I can give you things, but you have to make an oath of cause and effect. What you saw today must not be spread outside."

Zhang Jingmo nodded dissatisfied.

The woman said, "Give him the lamp."

Gu Niancang was injured, and his face was slightly pale, but he also had a wink, and he could see that his ancestor was in a bad mood.So although he felt dissatisfied in his heart, he still called someone to fetch the Dunhuang lantern.

Zhang Jingmo took the lamp from the servant, made another karmic oath, then turned and left without hesitation.

Gu Niancang stared at Zhang Jingmo's back with extremely gloomy eyes.

The woman reassured: "During this period of time, the sect has detected signs of a secret realm on the shore of the Kunhai Sea. It is not suitable to use force here for the time being. Besides, if he spreads your demon cultivation, although it is not a serious problem, it is still a good idea." There will be some impact."

Gu Niancang said: "Zuzu, when will I be able to surpass him in cultivation?"

The woman smiled and said, "Don't worry, dear grandson, your way of practice, after 500 years, your cultivation base will be able to overwhelm this Chen Baicang."——The premise is that Chen Baicang will no longer break through.

But thinking about it, Chen Baicang is only at the middle stage of the golden core, and it is impossible for him to conceive a baby in 500 years.

Gu Niancang said: "500 years? It's too long..."

The woman said: "500 years is too short." After she finished speaking, she burst into laughter.

Gu Niancang silently looked at the direction Zhang Jingmo was leaving, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhang Jingmo escaped a fierce battle. He put the Dunhuang lamp in the Sumeru Ring. After leaving the sea and returning to the restaurant, with a little bit of luck, he searched for the location of his avatar.

However, almost as he expected, the avatars he stayed beside Gu Chenjiang and Gu Chenshan had no response—this was completely different from the previous 120-odd lives, in which only Zhang Jingmo stayed behind. After several decades, it will return to Zhang Jingmo's side and bring news about Gu Chenjiang and Gu Chenshan's death.

But in this life, not.

But Zhang Jingmo ignored a small detail because of Lu Guijiu.

It really moves the whole body.

After Zhang Jingmo single-mindedly wanted to train Lu Guijiu, many uncontrollable changes occurred in his life.

It's nothing more than being captured by Tianlu of Kuchan Valley, but a demon cultivator named Gu Niancang came out. Zhang Jingmo knew that this change in the matter must have something to do with him, but for a while, he couldn't grasp the context of the matter clearly.

I can't figure it out, so I simply don't think about it, anyway, sooner or later, those two people will come to the door.

Zhang Jingmo set up a formation in the room, and then took out the Dunhuang lamp in the Sumeru Ring.

The appearance of this Dunhuang lamp is very simple, with lifelike goddesses engraved on it. These goddesses are all holding musical instruments. Although they are the size of a thumb, their expressions and movements are lifelike, as if they are about to fly down from the lamp.

Seeing this lamp, Zhang Jingmo finally felt better when he thought that he had saved a thousand spirit stones.He asked Zhu Yan to spit out a ball of spiritual fire and lit the wick.

Dunhuang lamps do not need lamp oil, as long as there is aura, they will keep burning.

Zhang Jingmo held the Dunhuang lamp in his hand, and after its wick was ignited by Zhu Yan's fire, he began to exert force in his hand, intending to crush the lamp made of unknown material.

Accompanied by Zhang Jingmo's force, the wick of the Dunhuang Lamp flickered a few times, but Zhang Jingmo gave some strength when he saw this, and only after the flame on the wick stabilized again did he start to increase the force again.

As Zhang Jingmo's strength intensified, cracks began to appear on the Dunhuang lamp, and then there was a soft sound, and the lamp body was actually shattered.

However, after the lamp body was broken, the wick of the Dunhuang lamp was still burning. Zhang Jingmo gently took off the lamp body piece by piece, and soon got what he wanted.

It was a key, a thin, brass key.There is a wick wrapped around the key, and that wick is still burning slowly.

After the lamp body shattered, the burning speed of the wick became much faster, and it didn't take long for each wick to be completely burned to ashes, leaving only the small copper key that didn't look special.

Zhang Jingmo put the key into the Sumeru ring, and then lit the broken lamp body with Zhu Yan's fire.

Zhu Yan seemed to be very interested in the ashes of the burnt lamp body, standing directly on the ground and pecking at the ashes bit by bit.

Zhang Jingmo let it go, and began to think about other things in his mind.

Gu Niancang's woman called Zuzu is a disciple of Dayan Sect.Since she has the cultivation base of Jindan Late Stage, she thinks her status in Dayan Sect is not low.

Since her status is not low, she must also know about the upcoming secret realm on the shore of Kunhai.The reason why Zhang Jingmo knew that she would not attack him for the time being was that he knew very well how important a secret realm was to a monk, or even a sect.

And the key to open this secret realm has now fallen into his hands.

Zhang Jingmo waited for Zhu Yan to peck away the ashes before leaving the house again.

As soon as he went out, he met Wu Curyao who was full of smiles. Seeing Zhang Jingmo's uneasy expression, Wu Curyao smiled and said, "Brother Chen, are you in a bad mood? Why is your face so ugly?"

Zhang Jingmo said lightly: "What? Are you in a good mood?"

Wu Curyao said: "Of course it's all right." He smiled, but his expression became lonely again, and he said, "My sister wants to travel abroad, but she refuses to take me with her."

Zhang Jingmo said: "What kind of travel is it with you?"

Wu Curyao sighed: "That's right, alas, this child has grown up..."

Zhang Jingmo smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.Wu Curiyao didn't know that it was the last time he met his sister at this time.

There is only one Vientiane flower, and the time limit is very short, so if Wu Curyao is coaxed this time, there will probably be no next time.

But in Wu Curao's eyes, at least his sister was still alive, and she was not sunk into the sea like a stone.People, as long as there is hope, there is hope.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingmo's eyes softened, and he said, "It's snowing again today, come have a drink with me?"

Wu cursed and said, "Okay! Let's drink together!"

The two drunkards left as soon as they said they would, went downstairs and ordered some side dishes.This time it was Zhang Jingmo's turn to take out the spiritual wine from the Sumeru Ring and put it on the table.

After drinking the wine, Zhang Jingmo asked seemingly unintentionally: "I heard that there are many sects on the Kunhai Sea?"

Wu cursed and said: "Yes, there are quite a few sects, big and small, and I have been looking for someone for a long time."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Have you heard of Dayan Sect?"

Wu Curao put a mouthful of vegetables in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Of course I know, what's wrong?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "It's okay, I'm just a little curious about this sect, so just ask."

Wu Curyao said: "Well... I don't know much, I just heard that their sect has produced a genius, and the Centenary Foundation Establishment and Lingxu Sect are quite a fight."

Zhang Jingmo smiled.

Wu Curao said again: "However, here I have some private news..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Oh? Is it worth talking about or not?"

Wu Curyao said: "In fact, many people know about this news, but no one has brought it to the surface. Do you know about the massacre of ten thousand people in Zhao State decades ago?"

Zhang Jingmo's face changed, and he vaguely caught something.

Wu Curyao just lowered his head to drink, and didn't notice the change of Zhang Jingmo's face, he said: "Those two lunatics in Kuchan Valley killed 10 people for alchemy, 10 people... Zhao Guo was ruined just like that. "

Zhang Jingmo: "..."

Wu cursed and said: "I heard that the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom was tortured and killed, and the last bequeathed son was rescued by the elder Gu of the Dayan Sect. The bereaved son is the current genius of the Dayan Sect."

Zhang Jingmo clenched the wine glass in his hand.

Wu Curao said again: "Well, their royal family has always had the blood of Xiantu, but because of the age, the relationship is getting weaker and weaker, but no matter how weak the relationship is, they are still their own descendants. This kind of thing, even if it were me, would never be the same as Ku Changu."

Zhang Jingmo's voice was a little dry. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it when it came to his lips.

Wu cursed and said: "Fortunately, the heavens have eyes. The Tianfeng of the Dry Chan Valley died before living for a year. In the past few days, news came that Tian Wan was also missing."

Hearing this, Zhang Jingmo said, "Brother Wu's news is quite well-informed."

Wu Curyao said: "I don't have any other hobbies. I just like to travel around and make a lot of friends. I know the news a little faster, but it's nothing important."

Zhang Jingmo drank the wine in his glass.

Wu cursed and said, "Brother Chen, why is your face so ugly?"

Zhang Jingmo said with a wry smile, "Probably too tired."

Wu cursed and said: "Go and rest when you're tired, I think you're not in good spirits, and you're going out alone, so be careful with your body."

After he finished speaking, he saw his young man walking in with a lot of things from outside the door. Seeing that Wu Curao was still drinking, he frowned and said, "Master, why are you drinking again? Miss, why are you drinking?" It’s been a few days, be careful what I tell her about you.”

Wu Curyao said: "Hey, don't, I won't drink it, so I won't drink it now." He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then smiled at Zhang Jingmo: "Brother Chen, where is your room?" Here, let me take you back to rest."

Zhang Jingmo smiled and said: "No need, I can go back by myself." After he finished speaking, he got up and went back to the room without giving Wu Curyao a chance to speak.

After returning to the room, Zhang Jingmo sat quietly for a long time before he sorted out the matter.

In the previous 120 lifetimes, Tian Wan and Tian Lu did not seek Zhang Jingmo to make alchemy, which also means that Tian Wan did not need to rush to find the yin beads refined by the souls of thousands of people.

Although Tian Wan still killed so many people in several lifetimes, because of the change of time, the location of her massacre also changed.

Among them, the country of Zhao where Gu Chenjiang and Gu Chenshan are located is not included.

10 people——[-] innocent souls, as soon as Zhang Jingmo closed his eyes, he remembered the screams of innocent souls in the opened Yin Demon Cave.

As I said before, Zhang Jingmo is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's business. He doesn't like Tian Wan, and he can bully her whenever he can, but he never thought of stopping Tian Wan from massacring civilians.Firstly, Zhang Jingmo knew that he could not stop it, and secondly, he knew that even if he did stop it, he would have to pay a very high price.

Zhang Jingmo sighed faintly, thinking that this is really retribution.Gu Niancang hated him, and it should be - this is indeed his fault.It's just that Gu Niancang didn't know the truth of this matter. He only knew that before his death, his father wanted to find Chen Baicang, the little Taoist priest who had brought him miracles, and wanted to be redeemed again. .

However, the ending disappointed the Gu brothers and sisters. They failed to find Chen Baicang, nor were they rescued.And the avatar left by Zhang Jingmo couldn't resist Tian Wan's methods, maybe it didn't even have a chance to come back, so it just disappeared.

At that time, Zhang Jingmo was trapped in the Valley of Dry Zen, and did not notice anything unusual.

Seeing that Zhang Jingmo was not very happy, Zhu Yan yelled again, jumped on Zhang Jingmo's head, and began to peck Zhang Jingmo's hair.

Zhang Jingmo didn't move. If someone else saw it at this time, they would find that Zhang Jingmo's face was full of tiredness.

"I'm tired," he said.

No one should.

He also said: "Lu Guijiu, if I don't succeed in this life, I don't know what to do."

After he finished speaking, he sighed again, and then took out the small key from the Sumeru ring.Zhang Jingmo touched the key lightly with his fingers, and sighed: "I'm going in again—this time, how many times is it?"

After he finished speaking, he squeezed the key tightly, and then slowly closed his eyes.

Ten days later, Zhang Jingmo invited Wu Curyao to go out to sea together.

Wu Curyao asked Zhang Jingmo what he was going to do when he went to sea.

Zhang Jingmo said that he wanted to find a kind of spirit beast near the sea, and wanted Wu Curao to do him a favor.

When Wu Curao heard this, he immediately agreed. He had a good impression of Zhang Jingmo. During this period of time, the two of them often drank together in a foreign land, which can be regarded as forming a friendship.

On the day Zhang Jingmo and Wu Curao went to sea, the snow stopped, and the sun in the sky looked a bit strange.

Wu Curyao wondered, "Why does the sun's light look fiery red?"

Zhang Jingmo looked up, then said lightly, "Isn't the light of the sun always fiery red?"

Wu cursed and said: "That's not what it means, the red one is a bit too strange." He said, then stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes heavily.

Zhang Jingmo smiled and said, "Did you drink again yesterday, and you haven't woken up today?"

Seeing that the people around him didn't respond to the sun, Wu Curyao muttered and didn't continue to struggle.

But Zhang Jingmo knew that the sun's light was indeed different from the past, it was red like a flame, and there were no more than five people who could see this scene on the entire coast of Kunhai.

Wu Curyao and him already accounted for two.
