Shui Congyue carried Wu Gen on his back and slowly walked down the mountain. The mountain road was winding, the stars were sparse, and fireflies danced lightly at night.

Wu Gen had fainted, and clenched one hand into a fist, still standing straight in front of Shui Congyue. Looking sideways at Wu Gen, who was gritting his teeth, Shui Congyue lifted his slightly disheveled hair, with a smile on his lips.

In the battle under the moon, Shui Congyue forced Wu Gen to use his inner potential, and finally made a breakthrough. In the second move, Wu Gen had already been able to use the triple slash, but Shui Congyue felt that he still had some strength left.

He didn't make a move, so he kept stimulating with words. Under the heavy pressure, the three slashes turned into one slash, and then he became a life-threatening move.

Shui Congyue knew that with Wu Gen's qualifications, he was far more powerful than before. However, he always cherished his life, spent more time on Qiqiao, and was accustomed to using tricks. When encountering problems, he first thought about how to borrow strength. Little did he know that the biggest

The borrowing force is oneself.

At first, Shui Congyue thought that Wu Gen was just a scoundrel who ran rampant in the countryside. After getting along with him for a long time, he realized that underneath his cynical and bohemian appearance, he was also loyal, brave and arrogant, and he also had the courage to drink blood.

The water from the moon has created a sense of closeness.

Say goodbye in a hurry, but it will take years to see each other again. Things are unpredictable, so I just hope that my new friend can have more capital to save his life and live up to the promise of seeing each other again. Therefore, I use some tricks when saying goodbye, hoping that he can reach a higher level.

.

This gift is by no means unimportant, and should not be given to anyone other than a relative or brother.

Returning to the courtyard at the foot of the mountain, he awkwardly wiped away the blood and dirt on Wu Gen's face, took out the Jade Flower Pill that Wu Gen had given him, cut one in half and fed it to him. Shui Congyue walked outside the house and sat cross-legged.

Sit quietly in front of the door with your eyes closed, not only to protect you, but also to prevent Wu Gen from being able to call you at any time if anything happens.

"Water comes from the moon." Wu Gen's murmur came from the room.

"Yes, you're awake." He stood up and entered the room, only to find that Wu Gen was just mumbling in a coma.

"I'm going to kill you." Wu Gen muttered.

"..."

"You brat, I asked you to be the deputy village leader, don't leave. Baoxiang, Mo Xin, Sun Hong are all here."

"Sigh." Shui Congyue sighed and looked at Wu Gen, whose face was a little distorted by the pain. "I hope I can fight side by side with you someday."

The next day, Wu Gen woke up leisurely, and his whole body felt like it was falling apart. He struggled to get up, and was stunned for a long time before he remembered what happened last night.

"Shui Congyue, where did he go? He was so cruel." Wu Gen shouted outside the house.

A gentle breeze blew outside the window, but no one responded.

"I can tell you, you hurt me so badly, you are not allowed to leave unless you take good care of me." There was silence outside the window.

Slowly climbing out of bed, Wu Gen held on to the wall and walked to the door. He looked around and saw that there was no one in the yard. Even the white horse tied under the locust tree was gone. When he looked down, he saw four words written on the ground in front of the house:

"Saving life from death".

"Shui Congyue, Shui Congyue." Wu Gen hurried out of the door, shouted loudly, and looked around for Shui Congyue.

There is no one in the house. There is no one in the mountain behind. Not even the beacon where it usually stays is no one.

"They are all a bunch of unloyal people. It's best if they all get out of here." Wu Gen yelled and cursed loudly, finally convinced that Shui Congyue had left without saying goodbye. "I can live a good life without you guys."

Wu Gen sat under the locust tree, looking at the sunlight filtering through the leaves, silently in a daze.

The following days were uneventful, including recuperating from injuries, boxing, and sword practice. During this period, I was once again attacked by a ghost.

In the midst of the ghosts, Wu Gen was no longer able to hide or run when he could. He fought bravely every time without fear of death.

After the battle under the moon, Wu Gen also had a deep understanding. Survive in death, fight for a little bit of vitality on the thin line between life and death. Only in this way can you achieve something and break something in the martial arts. This is what Shui Congyue left behind.

Your greatest wealth.

The second page of the Yi Jing has begun to practice. If there is no triple slash, I am afraid it will not be known how long it will take for the blood energy to operate according to the diagram. Wu Gen discovered that since the breakthrough, the human world has gained a trace of true energy, and as it circulates, the martial arts has become more powerful.

What’s more, his body gradually gained more fist and sword intentions.

During this period, Baoxiang came once, and was deeply saddened by Shui Congyue's departure. Their identities were very different, and we didn't know when we would meet again, and perhaps we would never meet again in this life.

Days passed by, and just when Wu Gen felt that he was about to stink, a group of people came down from the mountain.

When these people arrived at the foot of the mountain, they did not dare to go up the mountain. They just shouted loudly, "Wu Gen, Qu Chang is here, why don't you hurry down the mountain to greet us?"

Wu Gen jumped up from the recliner, shook his head, and made sure he heard correctly. This was Jin Song's first time here, and it seemed a bit unusual. Could it be that something big had happened that warranted this person's personal visit?

.

He quickly put on his loose clothes. After being neatly dressed, Wu Gen hurried down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Jin Song, wearing armor and with a solemn expression, was stationed at the foot of the mountain. There were soldiers with seals and ribbons beside him. Zhang Yuan followed closely, winking at Wu Gen. Behind him were more than fifty riders, all of whom were

Wearing armor and sharp, neatly draped.

"Wu Gen, the commander of the Huangzhong Ridge Xiang Army, pays homage to Mr. Qu." Wu Gen drawled a long note and rushed to Jin Songma to bow deeply. His eyes kept wandering around. What was going on? The commander of the song actually came in person.

Therefore, it is possible that Daxia is about to go into full-scale war.

"Wu Gen, lead the way, Commander Qu wants to meet the noble man on the mountain." Zhang Yuan said immediately.

"Your Excellency? Oh, sir, that noble person has been gone for many days." Wu Gen instantly understood why Jin Song and his party were dressed so formally today. It turned out that they were here to visit Shui Congyue.

"The noble man has left. Seriously, how long have you been gone?" Jin Song asked in surprise on his horse.

"It's been more than half a month since he left. I wonder why you are looking for him." Wu Gen raised his head and blinked.

"Humph." Jin Song jumped off his horse and slapped his palms with his riding crop as he walked, "The noble man has passed such a big event, so he didn't report it to the army earlier." He glanced at Zhang Yuan with his eyes.

Zhang Yuan jumped off the horse in a hurry, with cold sweat on his forehead, "It's my fault for being humble, I hope you can forgive me, Chief Qu." When he passed by Wu Gen, who was staring at the golden pine riding whip with his head heaving up and down, he stepped on Wu Gen's head hard.

foot.

"Wuchang Wu, I heard that you have managed this Huangzhong Ridge with impregnable strength. Although the noble man has left, but since you are here today, you might as well take me up the mountain to have a look." Jin Song said as he walked up the mountain road by himself.

.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan and Wu Gen hurriedly shouted: "No, sir."

"What's wrong? You're making such a fuss. Could it be that there's a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire ahead of you? Zhang Yuan, you are also a village chief, why are you still so impetuous?" He said with an angry flick of the whip in his hand, and hit a thin stick hidden in the grass.

fishing line.

"Whoosh." There was a sharp sound breaking through the air above, and two arrows were shot from the trees on the roadside, heading straight for Jin Song's door. In desperation, Jin Song suddenly turned sideways and used the whip in his hand to push away the two arrows.

.The long arrow changed its direction and was shot in front of the soldier who was following closely beside him. The feathers of the arrow could not help but tremble.

At the foot of the mountain, there was silence. The cavalrymen who came together looked at each other. Wu Gen and Zhang Yuan still maintained the posture of blocking them just now, and looked at each other with a look of joy on their faces.

After a long while, Jin Song finally said: "Ahem, I just discovered here today that the Barren Tomb Ridge actually has some beautiful scenery, so why not take this opportunity to enjoy it.

It's just that I'm not familiar with the road in the mountains. Wu Gen, lead the way. Zhang Yuan." When he said the word Zhang Yuan, Jin Song almost gritted his teeth and said, "You and the soldiers follow me, and the others rest on the spot.

"

Zhang Yuan had an innocent look on his face. It was not a trap set up by me, so why should he take it out on me? He glared at Wu Gen fiercely and motioned for him to lead the way.

"Sir, you must follow behind me." Wu Gen ran forward and warned Jin Song worriedly.

"Hey, hurry up and lead the way, I don't believe you are a trap every step of the way." Jin Song said angrily, but stood behind Wu Gen with a sincere body.

Along the way, Wu Gen turned left and right, stopping from time to time to give instructions. Sometimes he even had to avoid the main road and crawl through the bushes beside the road.

The further Jin Song walked, the more helpless he became, "Wu Gen, how many traps did you do on the mountain?"

Wu Gen turned his head and said nervously: "My lord, counting the other side of the pass, there are more than 520 large and small agencies and 131 traps."

"Hiss." Jin Song took a breath of air and pointed at Wu Gen with his hand, "Maybe you are born in the Year of the Rat and are timid by nature, so you have managed this place like this. From now on, there will probably be no one in this barren ridge except you.

If you can climb the mountain, no wonder it can block Daxia's sneak attack.

According to this design, hundreds of people can't attack it. I think it's better to call it Guanzhong Mountain instead of Huangzhong Ridge." He shook his head with some self-deprecation.

Wu Gen had a smile on his face, "Your Excellency, you have good eyesight, but there are always some uneasy things here. In order to suppress the evil spirits, I gave it the name of Fuming Pass. Your Excellency has been in a high position for a long time, and he speaks eloquently and follows the law."

, why not give it a formal name, then it will be clear and justified."

"Haha, I'm really interested. There is indeed some evil here. Okay, I'll let you do it. Let's call it Fuming Pass from now on." Jin Song felt quite comfortable being praised, and with a wave of his hand, Fuming Pass was officially named.

After bumping into each other until they reached the middle of the mountain, several people stopped to rest. Jin Song saw a huge stone standing under a big tree beside the road, with the words "Don't touch me, you have to pay me if you touch me" written on it. The words were written crookedly, and there was something underneath.

I drew a turtle pattern, as if mocking the people passing by.

What is this? Jin Song felt angry and slapped the boulder hard.

Wu Gen was whispering to Zhang Yuan at this time. He caught a glimpse of Jin Song's movements from the corner of his eye. He was shocked and shouted: "Lord Qu Chang, you must not do this."

Before he finished speaking, a bucket of lime fell from the top of the boulder, sprinkling Jin Song's head and face. Just as he was about to step back subconsciously, he heard two clicks, and a beast clamp under his feet clamped his left foot firmly. At the same time, two steel

The knife popped out from behind the tree and went straight to the waist and belly of the golden pine tree.

Wu Gen desperately stepped forward and pulled Jin Song away, barely avoiding the sudden attack of the steel knife.

He was about to die. Zhang Yuan's face was pale, and he was trembling as he wiped the lime off Jin Song's face. Wu Gen and his soldiers struggled to break open the iron clips on Jin Song's feet. Fortunately, Jin Song was dressed neatly today, wearing slings on his calves and feet.

He Naonilin only suffered some skin injuries, but his legs and feet were not pinched off.

"Wu Gen." Jin Song, who had regained consciousness, grabbed him by the collar, "Is this what happens if you don't give money? Why do you write such words?"

"Sir." Wu Gen said pitifully: "Everyone has some rebellious thoughts and wants to touch them even if they are not allowed to be touched. I just took advantage of people's bad nature, so I came up with this method. Although it seems simple,

, but it works quite well.”

"It worked, I was tricked into it." Jin Song said angrily and cursed, and all his previous self-cultivation was wiped out.
