People are always forgetful. Especially in the constant erosion of time, even if you have suffered great pain in the past, you can forget everything after the passage of time.
The Demon Locking Tower, the most important building of the Shushan Sect, can be said to have contributed to the Shushan Sect's prestige, and at the same time, it has also caused the Shushan Sect to face the threat of annihilation several times.
18 years ago, the Demon Locking Tower collapsed and thousands of demons escaped from the Demon Locking Tower. The entire Shushan Sect fell into an unprecedented period of decline. If it hadn't been for Jingtian, the legendary hero of that time, who helped the Shushan sect survive the catastrophe, I'm afraid the entire Shushan sect would have been completely destroyed at that time.
However, 18 years later, the Shushan Sect has recruited several more generations of disciples, and its momentum has surpassed the scale before the Battle of the Demon Locking Tower. Not only has it become famous throughout the Central Plains, it has even become known to everyone in the overseas cultivation circles. I don’t know.
Xu Changqing, the 23rd generation head of Shushan Sect, was canonized by the Mysterious Lady of the God Realm and became a rare living immortal in the world. He has been in charge of Shushan for 18 years, and his reputation has spread all over the world, and he has become the leader of contemporary monks.
In the city of Yuzhou near the Shushan sect, 18 years later, another figure who stirred up the situation in Shushan came here, the richest city in Shu.
"Haha, is this Yuzhou? Master, he really doesn't understand the ways of the world. He sent me down the mountain for only a small amount of money. If it weren't for my cleverness, wouldn't the future generation of heroes be beggars?"
I saw a man under 18 years old with slightly reddish-brown hair standing in front of the pier in Yuzhou City. He looked excited but pretended to be calm, which made people laugh and cry.
This young man is none other than Zhou Chiyan, the second son of the wolf demon Zhou Chiyan and his former Shushan disciple Si Dang, that is, Zhou Huang (Nangong Huang). His master was Yun Tianhe who Le Yuan chose from thousands of people and made the decision to hire him after careful consideration.
"I'm so hungry. I'd better fill my stomach before going to visit. If my stomach growls by then, I'll be really embarrassed."
Zhou Huang walked toward the Yuzhou Tangjiabao Market while stroking his stomach, which moaned twice from time to time. Due to the decline of Tangjiabao, Tangjiabao, which was once considered the most dominant city in Sichuan, was completely sold out and transformed into a market. Before Zhou Huang arrived in Yuzhou, he heard the escorts often talking about the past events of Tangjia Fort, and naturally he had some idea of the Tangjia Fort that he had never seen before.
When he walked under a big tree in Tangjiabao, Zhou Huang, who had sharp eyes, was attracted by a notice board next to him.
"Master, let me take a look, um - there have been monsters nuisance the shop recently, please help me with the help of the monster catching mage, I will thank you very much! Tangtang Inn."
Zhou Huang touched his chin, which had no beard at all, with a smile on his face. The notice in front of him was like a divine help, resolving his urgent need. Although he wanted to have a good meal before, the money he earned along the way could only be a "full meal". It was simply impossible to eat well.
"Hehe... It's true that someone will give you a pillow when you feel sleepy. It seems that not only can you have a full meal, but you may even be able to get the expenses for a period of time in the future... "
Just as Zhou Huang was about to step forward and take off the notice, a high-pitched female shout came from behind him.
"Give me a moment, let me be quiet..."
Before Zhou Huang could react, his body had been hit by someone. As he was shaking, Zhou Huang saw clearly who had hit him. Wearing an orange-red cloud brocade dress, a scorpion tail braid, and a strange Bagua mirror on the back of his right hand, there was an occasional flash of divine light for a moment, and the person who knocked him away turned out to be a young woman not much older than him.
"Hiss—when I was with the master, I never encountered such a powerful person hunting wild boar or black bear. Isn't this really a monster?"
Although the woman in front of her was petite and lovely, she was half a head smaller than Zhou Huang. But this strength really surprised Zhou Huang. Under Yun Tianhe's training, he had polished his body quite well. As a half-demon, his physique is not comparable to the juvenile body of ancient giant beasts, but it definitely has a huge advantage over humans. However, he was inadvertently knocked away by a little girl just now. Even if there is no It was because of the exertion, but it also showed that the woman's strength was definitely worthy of natural divine power.
"Hey, hey, I want this. Do you know what first-come, first-served means?"
Zhou Huang saw that after the woman studied the notice for a while, she stretched out her right hand to take off the notice, and immediately grabbed her wrist with her right hand.
The girl's name was Wen Hui, and she had joined the army with her father since she was a child. Due to her extraordinary talent and magical power, she had few opponents in the army. She had always been the one to bully others. Who would have thought that an unknown man could grab her wrist before she could react.
Even though Wen Hui didn't care about the protection between men and women in the army, her mother always reminded her that the girl's hands should not be touched easily. But as soon as Zhou Huang grabbed her wrist, Wen Hui hit her with a backhand as if to condition her. , the other hand grabbed Zhou Huang's collar, and used the opportunity to throw him over the shoulder.
"No way! You can't tell the truth, but you want to take action. Why don't you tell the truth?" Zhou Huang, who had suffered a loss once, could not let Wen Hui succeed again. The strength of his body, which had been developed for more than ten years, immediately gathered in his limbs. Zhou Huang stood firm like a mountain. No matter how hard Wen Hui tried, he could not make Zhou Huang waver even half a step.
"Hmph! A grown man has the nerve to bully a girl. I've been hungry for a long time. Can you bear to watch me starve to death?"
Wen Hui saw that her invincible power was of no use to the man in front of her. He looked like he would not resist despite her own strength. She didn't know that she had met a master, so she waved her hand and teased him.
"Girl? Your magical power can put ninety-nine percent of the men in the world to shame. I don't know which unlucky guy would marry a girl like you!" Zhou Huang shook his head, obviously not accepting this trick, but after hearing The woman in front of her was also preparing to take the reward money to eat, and then added: "Seeing how pitiful you are, why don't we go there to catch the monster together? The worst we can do is split it in half. I think the money to get rid of the monster should be quite a lot..."
"Okay! If you really get the reward, you and I will share half of it!"
Wen Hui patted Zhou Huang's shoulder with her hand, then showed her little tiger teeth and said with a smile: "My name is Wen Hui, gentle Wen, wise Hui, what is your name?"
Zhou Huang grinned, touched the shoulder that Wen Hui had just patted, and said: "Zhou Huang, Zhou of the Book of Changes, brilliant Huang. Your name is really unworthy of it. Your strength is so indifferent, how can you be a girl?" So gentle? Instead, he looks like a reckless man... "
"What are you talking about? If you don't leave quickly, if the mission of catching monsters in the inn is preempted, you will be hungry again..."
Wen Hui turned a blind eye to what Zhou Huang just said, tore off the notice and pulled Zhou Huang towards Tangtang Inn.
The two of them arrived at the inn one after another, but before they could find the innkeeper and tell them their purpose, they were attracted by a group of onlookers. In the small courtyard in front of the inn, a man and a woman were standing on a tree with few leaves.
The man is somewhat similar to Zhou Huang, but his hair is silver and his face is not frivolous like Zhou Huang. On the contrary, he is very calm and steady. The woman looks younger than Wen Hui, and her hair color is brown and red, making her look youthful and beautiful.
"Oh, it's all your fault. It's too late. This reward is wasted. I'm so hungry..."
When Wen Hui saw a man and a woman not far away, as well as the comments and admirations from the surrounding onlookers, she didn't realize that they were already late.
However, Zhou Huang did not show any unwillingness when his business was robbed. On the contrary, he completely relaxed after seeing the silver-haired man, as if he was just watching a show.
The silver-haired man looked at the shop owner Tang Tang and said: "Boss Tang, water vapor gathers here, and the attribute of this demon is water. Therefore, it affects the survival of this tree. You often hear the sound of running water. Please spread out. It’s up to me to force this monster out!”
Following the silver-haired man's words, he and the girl beside him were the only ones left in the front yard of the inn.
But I saw the silver-haired man stepping on the Seven Stars, and suddenly the spiritual power of earth gathered in his hands and tapped lightly on the seven doors around the tree: Du, Shang, Sheng, Xiu, Kai, Jing, and Death, leaving only the Jing door.
With the eight gates blocked, the little demon surrounded by the power of earth has nowhere to escape. It is worth showing up along the scene gate, otherwise he may not even have room to resist under the influence of the power of earth.
The monster suddenly appeared, and it turned out to be a wine jar monster with wings. But they saw that the brown-red haired girl didn't panic after seeing the monster, gently raised her right hand, and the next second a small tornado appeared in the front yard, and the wine jar monster was killed without any resistance. The tornado composed of wind gang cut into pieces.
The monster in the wine jar where the evil spirit condensed disappeared, and his true body appeared in the middle of the chopped wine jar monster. It was a simple wine jar, and the fragrance of the wine inside was still there, even though they were far apart, Zhou Huang and Wen Hui both felt... Can smell it clearly.
Good wine!
Zhou Huang has been practicing under Yuntianhe for more than ten years. He also knows a lot about his master's good rice wine and has tasted many good wines. But there are few such fine wines bred by this wine altar demon. After all, it can be nourished by spiritual energy for hundreds of years, and even a jar of ordinary wine will become a peerless wine.
"Brother Xuan, is this wine good?"
When the monster revealed its true form, the red-brown girl looked at the silver-haired man expectantly.
"Of course, I will make you a bear paw made with honey and wine when I get back. It will definitely be your favorite...Xu'er!"
The silver-haired man rubbed the head of the girl next to him affectionately, then raised his head and looked at Zhou Huang, who was among the crowd not far away, and showed a smile.
"Hey, Brother Xuan, long time no see!"
The crowd dispersed, and Zhou Huang greeted the silver-haired man who had just forced out the monster.
The person who can be called Xuan brother by Zhou Huang is naturally his compatriot brother Zhou Xuan (Xingxuan). As for the woman beside Zhou Xuan, you don't need to guess to know that it is the peach monster Wang Pengxu who is the incarnation of the Five Poison Beast.
"Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for half a year. Have you made any progress in your cultivation? Are you, Uncle Tianhe, allowing you to go down the mountain?"
"That's natural. Otherwise, master, why would he send me out? I'm going to do something big!"
Zhou Huang seemed extremely happy to see his brother.
"Hey, where's the reward you promised me?"
Seeing that Zhou Huang actually left her behind to talk to the man and woman who had robbed her of her reward, Wen Hui's face suddenly showed a look of dissatisfaction.
"Haha, if you don't mind, girl, let me be the host and prepare a feast for everyone, and please give me a favor, girl!"
But Zhou Xuan's eyes looked between Zhou Huang and Wen Hui again and again, and then she hurriedly spoke.
Someone was treating someone, and Wen Hui's unhappiness immediately dissipated from her face. The speed of her face change made Zhou Huang almost think he was dazzled.
Under a tree outside the inn, Le Yuan, who was in black robe, looked at the four people who were implicated in fate and sighed: "The actors are together, Shushan, you deserve to be robbed!"
