Qianshan

Among the twelve peaks of Wudao Mountain, there are Xuanji Peak that specializes in talismans, Divine Comedy Peak that specializes in elixir, Qingjing Peak that specializes in swordsmanship, Wuchang Peak that specializes in formations, and Cardinal Peak that is in charge of logistics... No matter which peak or branch, All of them have great families and careers and many disciples, except for Taichangfeng.

Taichangfeng is the head of the line, passed down from generation to generation, and does not accept outside disciples. Most of the time, Taichangfeng is the head of a lonely family. The leader is very simple. The heads of the past generations are all Mahayana venerables, and among the ascetics, there are only three venerables in the world, and at most there are no more than five.

Wei Wusheng has been the head of the school for 200 years, and in the 190th year of his tenure as the head, he finally accepted his disciple, Lin Shu.

Lin Shu was only seven years old at the time.

The old man had a beard, not a white beard, but a layer of black and green stubble, and he usually kept a straight face: "Shu'er, how is your homework today?"

The child saluted respectfully: "Return to Master, I have practiced swordsmanship for two hours, and I have finished reading the book."

"Okay. Let me ask you, what are demons?"

The child Lin Shu shook his head and shook his head: "The demons live in the [-] mountains in the north, and there are many kinds; they are born strong, can use demonic energy, and are warlike and murderous; they often invade our borders, kill my own people, and eat their flesh raw. Take the lead and follow his orders."

"Why cultivate the Tao?"

"Cultivation of the Tao means that those who are talented and rooted can temper themselves with the aura of heaven and earth, increase their cultivation, break through realms, and pass through heaven and earth."

"Why do you practice Taoism?"

Lin Shu thought: I heard people say that those who practice Taoism have a high status and can live forever. So this is not the reason for practicing Taoism. It is clearly stated in the book that Master gave me.

The child was serious, but he seemed nondescript. He said: "For the sake of the world, eliminate demons and defend the way."

After Lin Shu finished answering, he said, "I have doubts."

"What doubt."

Lin Shu took out a book from a stack of books.

"Why do you want to learn how to govern the demons?"

The demons are vicious, they are not Demon Lords, and the demons will not listen to them.

Wei Wusheng frowned, looking even more ferocious: "This is the lesson that Taichang Peak has learned in the past dynasties, so don't talk about your predecessors."

Lin Shu curled his lips secretly: "That apprentice retreated first."

"Ah."

As the sun set in the west, Lin Shu stretched his waist, moved his fingers, and ran towards Qingjing Peak.

Suddenly, with a bang, a date fell on the ground.

He looked up, and saw the young man leaning on a branch, wearing a black school uniform with gold trim, holding a sword, with a rather cold look on his face, he could tell at a glance that he was an inner sect disciple of Qingjing Peak.

Nie Chen was still holding two dates in his hand. He jumped down from the tree neatly and hooked Lin Shu's shoulder: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, let's go and eat."

Wei Wusheng has been bigu for many years, and the small kitchen in Taixu Peak has long since been disused, so he notified Cardinal Peak and assigned Lin Shu's meals to the adjacent Qingjing Peak.

Taixu Peak is really pure, and Qingjing Peak occupies this name in vain, but the situation is just the opposite.

As soon as they entered Qingjing Peak, two disciples flew past Lin Shu, all dressed in black and gold-edged school uniforms, neat and unrestrained.

The sound of swords colliding rang in the ears of the two of them, and one of the disciples obviously still had some strength left, so he greeted the two of them while beating: "Hello, two senior brothers!"

He was older than the two of them, and he entered Wudao Mountain earlier than the two of them, but Lin Shu studied under the head of the sect, and Nie Chen was the closed disciple of the master of Qingjing Peak, so calling him a senior was just to show respect.

In Qingjing Peak, disciples fighting like this can be seen everywhere.

Qingjing Peak loves to fight and is good at fighting. He encourages his disciples to fight. They can fight for any reason, and they can fight for no reason. It is also good for young people to vent their energy.In order to prevent the Qingjing Peak from being blown up, there are some restrictions on the disciples fighting. For example, the tables, chairs, plants and trees of the Qingjing Peak cannot be damaged. If they are damaged, they will be punished with spirit stones.

However, pedestrians are not included in the indestructible range, so rookie chickens with extremely low force values ​​on Shenqu Peak especially don't like to come to Qingjing Peak.

The two walked shoulder to shoulder and came to the cafeteria, took a meal and sat down, Nie Chen smiled and said, "How is Xiaoshu's sword practice?"

Lin Shu said while eating: "It's okay, it's okay, why is my nephew so polite?"

Nie Chen rolled his eyes, and stopped Lin Shu from picking up vegetables with his chopsticks. Lin Shu picked up food again, and Nie Chen stopped him again. The two of them used their chopsticks as swords, and started back and forth in a haphazard manner, refusing to give in to each other.

The plate holding the dishes remained motionless under the spiritual force in the two hands, maintaining a delicate balance. At this moment, Lin Shu withdrew his force suddenly, and the plate flew out of the table with lightning speed. With a bang, a plate of small rapeseed landed on the head of the diner at the next table without prejudice.

Luo Lin is the only female disciple of Qingjing Peak, the daughter of the peak master, and the little junior sister who everyone protects.She was sitting at the table, Xiao Caicai came from the sky, and was about to fight back angrily, but in a blink of an eye, she saw two culprits, one was the head disciple, and the other was Senior Brother Nie whom she had always missed.

A cavity of anger was forcefully suppressed, and the tears in the eyes were pressed out, and she cried out with a wow.

The two looked at each other, at a loss what to do, so they had to be dragged to the sword hut obediently by the junior sister.

The little junior sister was made to cry, and was reported to the peak master by the junior junior sister-this was not a big deal at all.

The master of Qingjing Peak has a good temper, and he is not good at punishing Lin Shu, the head disciple. The two of them apologized to the junior sister in front of the master, and the matter was over.

But when they arrived at the peak master's sword hut, the peak master was talking happily with someone, and the person opposite him was drinking tea with a blank expression.

It was Wei Wusheng.

Lin Shu thumped in his heart, thinking that it was over, he bit the bullet and went up with the other two to salute as disciples.

"The disciple has met the master and the peak master."

Wei Wusheng looked at Luo Lin's eyes flushed with tears, then looked at Lin Shu and Nie Chen, frowned, and reprimanded him: "I've been making trouble all day long, if I'm really free, now all sects are going to fight against the demons." Clan invasion, you will follow me and Master Luo to the front line to practice in two days!"

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and this punishment came as they both wished.

Two days later, the two teenagers followed the crowd to Wanren Pass, the border between the human and devil races.

Ascetics are not everyone who can wield a sword. A group of people ride horses and find a place to repair at night.

It was night, and the moon was hanging high in the sky, reflecting two teenagers who didn't know how to feel sad on the branches of the big tree.

"How long will it take to reach Wanren Pass? Are the demons really as green-faced and fang-like as those pictured in the book?" Lin Shu swung his legs and poked Nie Chen beside him with his elbow.

"I haven't seen it either. Are you afraid of the demons?" Nie Chen threatened Lin Shu with a cold face, "I heard that the demons like to eat children with thin skin and tender flesh like you."

Not to be outdone, Lin Shu said, "You are only two years older than me, if the demons like to eat me, they must like to eat you too."

Just as Nie Chen was about to say something, Lin Shu suddenly put his hand between his lips: "Hush—listen, there seems to be some noise over there."

In a quiet night, amidst the faint chirping of insects, there was a little voice that seemed dull and hoarse, out of tune with the surroundings.

They are now approaching Wanren Pass, walking along the border all the way to Wanren Pass.It is now in a small town, and there are only a few ordinary houses on the other side of the sound.

Nie Chen shook the sword in his hand: "Go, let's go and have a look!"

Lin Shu didn't have an official sword yet, so he found a handy one from his treasure bag, and said, "Let's go."

The two teenagers stood up from the tree, flew over the eaves and walked over the wall very quickly.

Finally, the sound got closer and closer. They landed on a roof and looked into the courtyard.

This is the first time Lin Shu has seen the demons. The body is as big as a horse. Its body is dark black with six claws. On the upper half of its face is a huge single eye, and on the lower half of its face is a big bloody mouth. It grew a mouthful of fangs.

Under its hand is an uneaten leg, which appears to be a person.

Lin Shu almost vomited the food he ate just now. It was the first time the young man saw the cruel reality with his own eyes, and he realized that the descriptions of the demons in Taichangfeng's books were too plain and elegant.

Lin Shu's heart was agitated, he was really depressed, and he didn't know how to vent it, so he clenched the sword in his hand and rushed to kill the monster.

Although Lin Shu was young, he was selected as the person to inherit the sect, which shows his outstanding talent. This time, he used [-]% of the strength of a foundation-building spiritual practice, and the bonus of swordsmanship. The monster was defeated by him. He was shot to death, and dark green blood splashed all over him.

Lin Shu shot too quickly just now, and Nie Chen only realized now that he landed in the courtyard.The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, both of them were in shock.

Lin Shu pulled out his sword tremblingly, and tremblingly said: "The higher the level of the demons, the more intelligent they are, and the more human-like their appearance is. The demons who have cultivated the demon core will turn into fly ash after death. This should be just a bat. A low-level demonic beast that doesn't have a magic core. I don't know why it came here."

Nie Chen patted him on the shoulder with the hilt of his sword, and forced himself to be calm: "I know, it's not like I haven't recited the Baijie of the Demon Race. Let's see if anyone is still in the room."

"Well. Go into the house and have a look."

The rooms are simple and the tables and chairs are old, but there are not many places to hide people.

There was a quilt on the bed, and there was a slight bulge under the quilt. Although it didn't look like someone, Lin Shu still lifted the quilt smoothly.

Below is a baby sleeping peacefully.

The two buried the only remaining leg in the courtyard.

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Shu asked the neighbors. The baby's mother died young and was dragged by his father, and there were no other relatives.So he gave the baby to the senior sister of Divine Comedy Peak.

A group of people continued to go to Wanren Pass and arrived at Wanren Pass two days later.

The demons are ferocious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to resist, so the troops defending the city come from various sects of cultivating immortals, and the emperor only cares about appeasing and governing ordinary people.

The general who guarded the pass hurried forward to meet him, and his face was full of joy because of the reinforcements: "I have seen your lord, the demons have launched an attack on the city."

Lin Shu followed Wei Wusheng, looking at the ferocious monsters under the city wall, followed by the army of demons, they were not afraid of pain or death, they rushed up one after another, once they rushed up, they were like swarms of termites, The bones that were eaten by people were not left behind.Even if there is a Mahayana venerable like Wei Wusheng, he can only keep a section of the city wall safe and sound.

Every time the city is defended, it means that many soldiers will never return.

The isolated city is surrounded by mountains, and Lin Shu seems to understand what it means to eliminate demons and protect the way.
