After the Ming Dynasty, the flames shine on the fleeting years

He once vowed not to enter the valley of never giving up half a step, and hoped that this trip would not make him break his vow.

Liu Nian's worried face made Wenying curious, and he kept quiet and bored, so he stretched out his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and after a while, he yelled, "Look! Do not abandon the valley!"

Liu Nian lifted the curtain and looked, only seeing a few acres of barren fields.

Seeing that he was fooled, Wenying laughed loudly.

Liu Nian was speechless.

Wenying restrained her face and muttered: "It's just a joke, why take it seriously?"

Liu Nian looked at the towering peak in the sky: "It's almost there."

The peaks are like knives, piercing straight into the mountains.The top of the peak is shrouded in clouds and mist, faintly flickering with red light.

Wenying admired: "It's so beautiful, such a mountain is the most beautiful in the world, right?"

Liu Nian said softly, "Not enough."

Tongtian Palace and Tianti Mountain are more than [-] ren high, flying obliquely into the sky, surrounded by clouds and mists, the morning is like a golden veil, the night is like a moon, and it never disperses all day long, and there is no rain in four seasons. Forget all the humiliation, linger and forget to return, throw away the world of mortals.

The carriage stepped into the foot of the mountain and stopped quickly, the door opened spontaneously, and Liu Nian came down with the burden on his back.The horse raised its hooves and neighed, and not long after, an eight or nine-year-old boy in coarse cloth rushed to the intersection and waved his hands angrily: "If you don't come early or late, it's really bad luck to come at this time! Follow me Come!"

He came faster and went back faster, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, there was only one way up the mountain. Liu Nian used a little Jindan vitality to catch up at the mountainside.

The boy turned his head and saw, he let out a "huh" and quickened his pace even more.

Liu Nian followed unhurriedly.

Approaching the mountain peak, buildings with emerald tiles and vermilion walls appeared in sight, and the red light among the clouds became more and more clear, like a layer of depression in the heart, making Liu Nian's chest a little suffocated.

"Why are you in a daze?" The boy looked at him and followed his gaze to look at the building, and sneered, "You fool, you want to enter Moyunya too?"

Liu Nianqiang suppressed the discomfort in his chest and asked, "Aren't we going to Moyunya?"

"Inner sect disciples are qualified to enter Moyun Cliff, what are you!" The boy looked at him with a hint of jealousy, turned his feet, jumped into the bushes, and walked around along the path stepped on by people. On the back of the mountain, there are two factions of earthen houses standing side by side, and in front of them are several medicine fields, where five or six people are farming.

"Where do you live?" The boy pointed casually, "Starting tomorrow, follow those people to work hard here, you are not allowed to wander around, let alone go to Moyun Cliff, if you disobey, you will be thrown into the stove as refining material !” His eyes were fierce, with killing intent.

Liu Nian responded with a no-nonsense response.

Only then did the boy leave contentedly.

As soon as he left, five or six people from the medicine field immediately gathered around.

"Are you new here?" The person who asked looked like an old man in his sixties.

Liu Niandao: "I'm...Wenying." Several people kept looking at him, which made him very uncomfortable. "I will ask you to give me more advice in the future."

The old man said: "There is no future. With your appearance, I am afraid that you will be able to enter Moyun Cliff in a few days."

Others are jealous and bitter.

Liu Nian was puzzled and said, "Please explain clearly."

The old man said: "This Moyunya is divided into the inner door and the outer door. The inner door is the place to practice, and the outer door is just the servants who take care of the medicine fields. They all learn the skills of taking care of the medicine fields. To enter the inner door, you need Recommended by inner disciples. The one who brought you here just now came two months ago, and was picked in by inner disciples in just two days."

Liu Niandao: "What's the point of this choice?"

The old man said with deep meaning: "It's just like you."

Liu Nian was at a loss, and the others looked ambiguous. They wanted to hear Wenying's opinion, but when they turned around, they couldn't see him. They thought he was admiring the wonders of Moyun Cliff, traveling around, and didn't care. Only then did I feel something was wrong.

The others were sleeping soundly, and he went out quietly. The red light hidden in the clouds was very obvious at night.

Liu Nian's chest felt tight, and he couldn't breathe. He worked hard to adjust his breath, and he got better just now.He walked around the low house and the medicine field, but Wenying was still nowhere to be seen. Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, he had no choice but to go back to the house and not talk about it.

On the second day, the boy came again, and one of them handed out steamed buns. Seeing them gobble it up, they showed disdain: "A bunch of trash! I can't stand such a little hunger, when will I succeed in fasting?"

A man said: "Li Shuang! We treated you well when you first came here. Why do you make things difficult for us?"

Li Shuang sneered and said: "If you treat me well, I can't make things difficult for you? What's the reason? I can treat you as I like!"

The man trembled with anger: "Mou Tianqi is only the fourth senior brother! Don't think that if you climb up to him, you will fly to the sky!"

The old man and the others were shocked, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Li Shuang smiled instead of anger: "It won't be soon. To tell you the truth, he has collected nine hundred and ninety-nine innocent souls, and he will soon be able to refine them into a soul-devouring furnace. At that time, the ancestor will definitely look at him with admiration. , I can’t tell if it’s the senior brother or the second senior brother.”

When Liu Nian heard that all nine hundred and ninety-nine souls had been collected, his heart skipped a beat, and he didn't want to listen to the next words.

Li Shuang left proudly, leaving a few aggrieved outer disciples.

The man held Liu Nian back: "If you enter the inner sect, don't be like him. You are young, you don't care about cultivation, you just want to invite favors and flattery. When he is old enough to be a man, I see what good he can do. end!"

Liu Nian opened his eyes wide and said, "The human cauldron you're talking about refers to the cultivator whose vitality was absorbed through intercourse?"

"Such a person is worthy of being a monk, not even a child molester!" The man spat.

The old man waved at him: "Stop gossiping. Tomorrow is the eighth day of the lunar new year. If the ancestor loses again this time, none of us will have any good fruit to eat. Come and water the medicinal materials!"

Liu Nian stood beside him, watching him gently hold the leaves of a laver velvet with both hands, infuse vitality into the leaf surface little by little, and then send it down the stem to the roots.In a short while, the seaweed mushroom doubled in size, and the leaves slowly unfolded, revealing a little pink flower bud in the middle.

"Taking care of the medicine field is very particular. Like this laver antler, it needs to infuse vitality along the leaves, and that sunflower must instill energy from the root to the leaves." He was so absorbed in watching that the old man casually gave some pointers.

Liu Nian wrote down one by one.

The old man took out a book from his arms and handed it to him: "This is "Shu Yuan Jue", you can use it to practice, and ask me if you don't understand. It doesn't matter if you enter the inner sect or not in the future, learn one more skill It’s always good.” After a pause, he added, “After you finish your studies, you have to return the book!”

Liu Nian sat on the side with a book and flipped through it casually. They are the most basic foundation building skills. They cannot be compared with the "Heart Fire Sutra", one of the top mental methods of Tongtian Palace. It's very novel, and there is no special requirement for vitality, the Sanwei Xinhuo he cultivated can also be used, he secretly wrote it down.

One day passed, and the old man waited for people to return after dark, and fell down and fell asleep when he entered the room.

After Liu Nian waited for them to fall asleep, he tiptoed to Moyun Cliff.

The buildings on the cliff are far away from each other, Liu Nian turned around to find nothing, and was about to start looking again, when he saw Li Shuang being held in the arms of a middle-aged man, walking up happily, and he immediately followed behind, watching The middle-aged man kept rubbing his buttocks, and was still talking dirty words.

Li Shuang hugged his neck with a smile, and took two bites from time to time, one for Brother Mou.

Mou Tianqi was so hot from being shouted, he quickly got into a building, threw him on the bed, and said with a lewd smile: "My good brother, you are young, my brother can't touch you, so let you touch my brother, okay?"

It was obviously not the first time for Li Shuang to smile charmingly: "Good brother, I have been thinking about it all day, and I just want to eat my brother."

"Okay, brother will eat for you." Mou Tianqi couldn't wait to take off his clothes and pants, and threw himself on the bed. After a while, heavy and sharp breathing came out from the bed curtain.

Liu Nian bit her lip, secretly recited "Heart Fire Sutra" to divert her attention, and cautiously entered the room.According to his thinking, since the Soul Eater Furnace is so important, Mou Tianqi must keep it not far from him, so that he can always take care of it.But he searched everywhere except around the bed, but he still couldn't find the stove.

He looked at the bed in embarrassment.

The bed curtain shook, and two people could be vaguely seen "fighting" inside.

He gritted his teeth and slowly moved towards the bed.

Clothes were scattered on the floor in front of the bed, and a palm-sized stove was pressed under the clothes.

Liu Nian's eyes lit up, and he bent down to pick it up, when the door was kicked open vigorously!A gentle and handsome young man rushed to the bed unexpectedly, lifted the bed curtain, and before the two of them could react, he scattered a handful of medicine powder out.

The two people on the bed couldn't move at the moment.

The young man laughed loudly and said, "Fourth Junior Brother, what a blessing! With the help of my body powder, you will definitely be able to hold on for three days and three nights!"

Mou Tianqi was so angry that his cheeks trembled: "Second senior brother, what are you just doing?!"

The second senior brother said: "Good junior brother, I heard that you have refined it into a soul-eating furnace? Senior brother, I have never seen anything in the world, so I want to ask my senior brother to open my eyes!"

Liu Nian, who was hiding under the bed at the last minute, quietly hid the stove in his arms, not daring to breathe.

Mou Tianqi glanced at Li Shuang's pale face from the corner of his eye, and knew that he leaked secrets a lot and was angry in his heart, but he said: "Which nonsense are you listening to! Such a heaven-defying thing like the Soul Eater Stove is just talked about in the book, which one?" It can be refined!"

The second senior brother picked his toes in the pile of clothes, and said: "Senior brother, Ming people don't say dark words. In the past, you liked to go to the master's side the most. These days are so silent, must be hiding some treasure?"

Mou Tianqi laughed and said, "Didn't my precious brother see it?"

The second senior brother sneered, grabbed Li Shuang and dragged him to the front, grabbed his elbow and said: "If such a charming little person loses an arm, it would be a disgrace."

Mou Tianqi said: "In terms of beauty, how can you compare with the second senior brother?"

"Ah!" Li Shuang's elbow was crushed by him, and he broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

The second senior brother clung to Li Shuang's ear, and said softly: "Good man, tell you second senior brother, where did fourth senior brother hide his things?"

Li Shuang twisted his face and said: "Second, brother, what are you talking about, Li Shuang has never seen or heard of it!"

The second senior brother felt ruthless, raised his hand and broke his other arm, and threw him on the bed: "Tomorrow is the eighth day of the lunar new year. If you don't want to miss the medicine fight meeting, you'd better hand over your things obediently!"

Mou Tianqi said: "I don't know what the second senior brother is talking about! If you don't believe it, just complain to the master."

The second brother smiled: "Do you think I can't?"

He moved a chair and sat down in front of the bed: "Anyway, I can't sleep because of the heat these two days, so I will accompany my younger brother to appreciate your baby."

Li Shuang passed out from the pain, and was awakened by the second senior brother splashing cold water, and the cycle continued until dawn.

Mou Tianqi, who had stayed up all night, finally had some light in his eyes, and looked in the direction of the door expectantly.

The second senior brother said: "Do you think that the senior brother will come to summon you to the medicine fighting meeting at dawn?"

Mou Tianqi's face was a little unhappy when he said the central matter.

"Let's give up as soon as possible, senior brother also knows that you are not in a good mood after refining the Soul Eater Furnace. By the way, yesterday the master said that he has reached the critical moment of retreat, and the senior brother will fully preside over the medicine fighting meeting this time."

Mou Tianqi's heart sank.

"It seems that the performance that the fourth junior brother has painstakingly prepared is going to be in vain. Why don't you hand it over as soon as possible. If Moyunya really wins, you will have a bright face, won't you?"

Up to now, Mou Tianqi insisted that he did not.

The second senior brother said with a low face: "Since this is the case, I have no choice but to go to the medicine fighting meeting empty-handed."

Seeing that he was going to leave, Mou Tianqi was relieved a little, but after he went out, two disciples came in soon and came to carry the bed.Mou Tianqi was shocked: "What are you going to do?"

"Second Senior Brother invites Fourth Senior Brother to go down the mountain to participate in the medicine fight meeting." As he spoke, he lifted the bed.

Not only Mou Tianqi and Li Shuang turned pale with shock, but Liu Nian, who was hiding under the bed, was also complaining endlessly.Fortunately, there was a brown tie under the bed, he inserted his fingers, and his body was clinging to the mattress like a gecko, and he was carried down the mountain along with the bed.

There was a gentle breeze at the foot of the mountain, and the fragrance of flowers wafted through the nostrils. If the two parties were not at war, they would have been out for an outing together.

The bed was placed aside, Liu Nian saw that no one noticed, so he breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his fingers, and fell to the ground.The bed happened to be placed on the grass, and he hid in the grass, but no one thought about it.

"Where's Wei Xiaoren? Why did you only send you guys here?"

asked in a cold voice.

Liu Nian felt that the voice was a bit familiar, and couldn't help but move an inch away. He wanted to see the owner of the voice, but only saw pairs of boots.

"The teacher is retreating, this session is presided over by the younger generation, please ask the master Gu to come up with the topic." The voice was thick and thick, presumably it was the elder brother.

"Pa-ta", something was lost on the ground.

The cold voice said: "Whoever of you can recognize it will win."

"Hehehe," the second senior brother's voice suddenly came out from behind the bed, "I am afraid that only my fourth senior brother can solve the problem of the valley master."

"Second senior brother!" Mou Tianqi was ashamed and angry!

He and Li Shuang were inseparable in the bed curtain, if the people of Moyunya saw it, it would be fine, but this person in front of him is the number one enemy of Moyunya, in his eyes, he would become the laughing stock of both factions, master finally Afraid of losing face in front of this person, I will never reuse myself in the future!

The second senior brother laughed loudly and lifted the curtain of the bed.

"Where did the ugly thing come from?" The cold voice was full of anger, and with the loud noise, the bed was blown to pieces, Mou Tianqi and Li Shuang were blown out, fell to the ground, and Liu Nian took the first step He jumped out from under the bed, although he was not injured, he rushed to the crowd!

"Who are you? Why are you hiding in Moyunya?" The second senior brother looked at him suspiciously.

Liu Nian's eyes swept across the crowd, and landed on the person who was facing Moyunya.

Clean and dusty, just like a year ago.

The sarcastic remarks of the past are vividly remembered, but today things have changed.

Liu Nian took a deep breath, cupped his fists and said, "I am willing to fight."

The man's voice was cold, without any emotion: "Do you know who I am?"

Liu Niandao: "The Daoist Ximing is famous all over the world...it's like thunder, how can I not know."
