In the early morning, the village at the foot of the mountain ushered in the first rays of the morning sun, and the thick white mist was like a thin veil over the mountain and the village. The crimson sun pierced through the white mist, shining like a ruby.

The rooster crows had been heard many times, and the village began to be noisy in the early morning.

Li Xiaoyao rubbed his eyes that had not yet woken up, and sat up from the bed very reluctantly, as if the disturbing rooster crow did not wake up the people here and swore not to stop. Ye Yinfeng was sitting on the wooden bench next to the bed. He did not fall asleep, but sat on a dilapidated wooden bench and exercised his breathing for more than an hour.

Although martial cultivators have internal support, they must also sleep and cultivate properly. No, Li Xiaoyao didn't know what to talk about with Li Erniu last night, his face was excited, the rooster crowed several times and was not woken up, and finally coupled with the noise outside the window, he woke up slowly and reluctantly.

And beside him was Li Erniu, who was snoring like a cow, sleeping soundly, without the slightest sign of waking up, with a thick and strong muscles exposed, and only a pony hexagram on his body. Bursts of cold air penetrated through the broken wooden window, and the cold wind rushed straight in, and Li Xiaoyao no longer had the feeling of sleep, so he had to climb down from the broken bed.

As soon as the little fat man got off the bed, he found that Ye Yinfeng had opened his eyes, and he found that there was something in the other party's eyes that he was not familiar with, like starlight, and like deep and deep, but there were still some temperaments that he couldn't say contained in them. He couldn't help but walk in front of Ye Yinfeng again, look at the other party a few more times, and circle around him a few more times.

"Why, I have flowers on my face." Seeing the other party's strange behavior, Ye Yinfeng couldn't help but roll his eyes and said unhappily. Because he always felt that there were always some strange looks in the other party's eyes, and those eyes seemed to look at the little daughter-in-law. It made Ye Yinfeng feel a chill in his heart, and he quickly jumped down from the wooden bench and rushed out of the door like a frightened rabbit.

Li Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the other party to be so unkind to see him, his face suddenly became angry, and he chased him out with a roar.

That Li Erniu didn't wake up from the bed in the end, he took the old man's words last night as wind in his ears, so he didn't get up to send the two of them out of the village.

Ye Yinfeng and Li Xiaoyao washed up on their own, and then decided to leave the village, which should be a farming village, would be very quiet, and at this time, there were groups of men and women of all ages, young and old, standing in front of the doors of the houses. They didn't come forward to speak to the two men, but watched in silence as the young men left the village quietly.

At the entrance of the village, the old man suddenly appeared in front of him, and there were several young strong men they didn't know. The old man's frosty hair and silver beard were like a thin layer of frost on the ground, and his rickety body was even more bent. The old man and the young men of the village came to see them off, and the lonely old man stood in the cold wind, and the silver frost like the first snow tore the vicissitudes of the ground.

Li Xiaoyao noticed that the waists of these young strong men were covered with cold and glittering flying knives, like the silver frost on the ground shining brightly in the red sunlight.

"Everything about this village is expected to be kept secret by the two little friends, as for the matter of this hidden family, the two will meet again at a certain time, the two little friends, take care all the way."

Before leaving, the old man did not say much, and repeatedly told them to keep the secret of this village.

Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng saluted the old man and several young strong men, they felt the shining cold flying knives on the waists of those young strong men, and they couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, if these flying knives were fed to them, then how miserable they would die.

I don't know what this old man meant by bringing so many strong men with flying knives around his waist to see him off, threat or warning, Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng had the same idea in their hearts. They couldn't help but feel that the second trip was really a big loss, and instead of getting a little benefit, they inexplicably offended a killer.

On the mountain trail, at a glance, the vast frost paved the ground, as if paved with a thin layer of sea salt. The cold wind like a knife blows directly on the root of the ear, blowing the root of the ear to the point of pain.

The two of them stepped on the frost above the ruined grass, like two small insects moving on the white vastness.

"Why did you grow a beard?" Li Xiaoyao looked at Ye Yinfeng with an exaggerated expression, and then said weirdly.

Ye Yinfeng was careless for a while, and subconsciously touched his chin, and really felt some hairy stubble that was prickly, and he felt that his chin began to become hard and rough, without the smoothness and softness of the past. He felt as if he had grown up overnight, his juvenile body was only fifteen years old, and after experiencing too many tribulations, his mind had begun to gradually mature, and he could no longer be the carefree young master of the Ye family before.

"This was taken by Miss Nangong, and even people began to become mature, not bad." Li Xiaoyao touched his smooth jade-like chin, but there was only smooth fat, and then nothing, he couldn't help but quip.

"Just you, a little kid, don't think about the things of adults, or think about how to unify your Dao Sect and become the supreme Dao Saint in the world, this is your top priority."

"Yes, this Daoist will be the supreme Dao Saint who will dominate the world in the future, how can he fall into this mundane matter in the red dust, in the future, after this Daoist Lord unifies the Daomen, he will divide a Dharma protector for you to do, how about it, enough to be righteous."

"Ghost genius Xihan, what kind of Dao Protector you are, I am still slowly sinking in my red world."

"You have such a great life goal as this Dao Master, and you are like this, you don't have any life goals, don't say that you are the junior disciple of this Dao Saint in the future, don't say that you know this Dao Saint."

"By the way, fat Taoist, if you unify the Daomen, then what should that person do, you are not a disguised deception to destroy the ancestors, you will be punished by God."

"Bah, bah, the crow's mouth is rarely to curse this Dao saint, where can the old man see the door of this mortal world, his old man's heart is not in this mortal world. Besides, this Dao saint is his successor, and unifying the Dao sect will not disgrace his reputation, how can it be said that he deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestor. ”

"Don't be proud, wait until you reach the day, if only you had a horse to ride."

"In this wilderness, where did the horses come from, it's early in the morning, and there is less daydreaming here."

After all, the two of them are still young people's hearts, although they have experienced a lot of things and matured a lot, but their simple nature has not changed much, and along the way, the two of them walked on the rustling silver frost and walked in this wilderness. Behind him was a majestic cloud-shrouded mountain, like a green mountain covered with a thin veil, quiet and quiet, like a pensive old man, watching the two teenagers leave.

The two of them didn't know how far they had walked, but they felt that the sun was gradually rising from the east to the sky like a big scone, and the white clouds were running around in the blue sky like sheep, which was very beautiful.

They crossed a mountain valley and walked on an official road. At this time, they didn't know where this place was, so they could only walk in the northeast direction by feeling.

Although the winter sun hung high, it was difficult to hide the thick bone-chilling coldness that wantonly ravaged the land. The cold wind was biting like a knife, blowing, and the solemn and solemn with nowhere to hide only went towards the hearts of the two of them.

Along the way, they also talked about the ancient and mysterious hermit, although the old man did not give them very satisfactory information, but the unhappiness in the hearts of the two gradually disappeared, after all, there can be no perfect answer to everything, and regrets are the real existence.

Ten miles of a long pavilion, five miles of a short pavilion, outside a long pavilion in front, a wine shop flag fluttering in the wind, under the winter sun sent out the sound of "Huohuo".

The wine shop was full of people, porters, peddlers, and officials in official uniforms, and several horses with bright and plump hair made a long neighing sound in the stable of the wine shop.

This is a small wine shop in a rural village, and because it is located next to this official road, it takes several hours to reach the castle in front of it. Therefore, the business here is very good, and the merchants, pawns, and officials who pass through the official road all choose to settle here, and go on the road again after they are full of food and wine.

Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng came to this wine shop with a tired state like dust and dust, and looked at this wine shop that was troubled by people and couldn't help but show a wry smile. At this time, they scolded the old man in their hearts, and did not even give them breakfast, so they hurriedly drove them away, as if they were driving out a plague god.

Several tables placed next to the official road were full of people, and the voices of people were boiling, and the visitors were chatting from all over the world, and they didn't pay much attention to these two young men who came from the dust. There was no one sitting at the only decent table, and the two of them walked towards the table without hesitation, touching their stomachs, which were already hungry and grumbling in resistance.

After the two of them were seated, the diligent shopkeeper immediately stepped forward to squeeze out a smile that satisfied the guests as much as possible, and then stepped forward and shouted: "Two guest officers, what do you want to eat, the shop will try to meet the requirements of the two." ”

The shopkeeper did not look down on them because they were young boys, but greeted them warmly as always, which shows that the shopkeeper's vision is unique, and he must be a person who has experienced human accidents for a long time.

"Let's have a few side dishes, this Dao Ye is starving to death." Li Xiaoyao waved his hand and said in an old-fashioned manner, still looking like an old man.

After the shopkeeper left, they sat around and looked at the guests here, and at the same time they were secretly surprised, they didn't expect that there was so much traffic here, not only there were hawkers and pawns, but also officials and officials, but there were fewer people in the rivers and lakes. Most of them were hawkers, and one or two officials in official uniforms were sitting at a table not far from them. They also carried a bag on their backs, and a pair of hands pulled the bags on their backs from time to time, which showed that there must be some important documents and the like in this bag.

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, from far to near, and appeared in front of everyone's eyes in a moment.

But I saw several sturdy men in strong clothes riding high-headed horses on the official road, hugging a man in a fresh robe with gorgeous clothes coming from north to south, a total of eight people, eight horses.

When the group approached the winestore, they couldn't help but lower their horses, and when they saw the people in the winestore, they couldn't help frowning, but they still restrained the horses moving forward, and swept their eyes towards the winestore. A pair of eyes shot a sharp light, and after looking at the wine shop for a moment. The group of talents jumped off the horseback with swift movements and went straight to the door of the wine shop.

The sharp-eyed shopkeeper had already seen this group of people who were dressed extraordinarily, especially the person who looked like a boy in a white robe, who was very imposing, and he was about to meet him, but in the end he hesitated and did not step forward. And the guests who dined in this wine shop also stopped talking, and raised their eyes to look at this group of people, and when their eyes met the sharp gaze of those strong men, their hearts sank, and they quickly withdrew their gazes.

At this moment, the table that belongs here is already full of people, and only Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng have only two empty people at this table, which is particularly prominent.

The white Qiu Gongzi swept his gaze and found that the place was already overcrowded, and the sword eyebrows above the starry eyes were frowning, and his face showed a look of displeasure. The seven men in strong suits behind him followed closely behind him, with a solemn look on their faces, and a pair of eyes looking around vigilantly.

"A few guest officers, do you want to be sharpened?" , The shopkeeper still greeted him, and he also knew the situation at this time, but the business at the door of the house must not be lost.

The look of displeasure on the boy's face became more and more intense, and he said lightly: "Are all the tables in your store here, there are no private rooms or anything like that." ”

"I'm sorry, guest officer, why don't you wait, there are a few tables that are running out, and there will be free tables soon." The shopkeeper tried his best to save the business with his courteous smile and flattering language, and secretly scolded those customers who only ordered a few cheap side dishes and occupied the place.

The white-robed boy swept his gaze and saw the empty and conspicuous table with only two people at the table, and when he saw clearly that there were only two young men sitting next to the table, his eyes couldn't help but flash.

Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng suddenly had a bad premonition in their hearts, the other party's intentions were obvious, although there were seven or eight people on the other side, they had no reason to be afraid, so they had to watch what this son would do next.

Sure enough, the boy arranged for four people to lead the horse to the stable, and then led three men in strong suits to ignore the shopkeeper, and walked towards the table of Ye Yinfeng and Li Xiaoyao.

The white-robed boy came to their table and did not speak, but took a piece of silver from his robe and threw it on the table. He didn't say anything, just looked at the young man sitting quietly with condescending eyes.
