Fighter of the Destiny

The faint morning light shines on the water at the edge of the grassland, reflecting a faint luster. Nan Ke stood by the water, looking ahead with an indifferent expression. He raised his right hand, water came to him, and he put the medicine into his lips. After the two maids took the medicine, they handed her a wet hand towel to wash her face. After a while, she regained her energy a little and waved her hand gently in front of her face.

Although there are water plants everywhere, there are not many mosquitoes and flies in Zhou Garden. Her movements are not to drive away anything, but to wipe out a black curtain. On that black curtain, there is a rough map outline of Zhou Garden. There were also a few flickering lights, which were life lamps lit by black robes, pointing them to the location of the enemy.

There are two life lanterns in the grassland, moving east and west, and they are dozens of miles away in an instant. It seems that they are disturbed by some kind of force and cannot determine their location. They should be Zhexiu and Qijian. They are already deep in the grassland. Logically speaking, there is no possibility of survival in the grassland, so Nan Ke is not worried, and his eyes fall more on the other two life lamps.

The two life lamps belong to Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng. They are very eye-catching on the black curtain. They are located on the edge of the grassland, far away from the gardens where human practitioners gather. They have not been moved for a long time. It seemed to indicate that the two of them were no longer able to escape, and it would be soon before she could complete the task assigned by the black-robed teacher.

The old man who played the piano came here from the top of Muyu Peak at some unknown time, and met Nan Ke's master and servant. Seeing the life light on the black curtain, he was not as confident and calm as Nan Ke, but a little worried: Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng were seriously injured, and they should not be able to walk back to those gardens, but... there are still some human practitioners hiding in the mountains of Zhou Garden, and most of those human practitioners are at the peak of Tongyou Realm. If Xu Yourong and What should we do if Chen Changsheng meets these human practitioners during his escape?

This conspiracy formulated by Heipao himself made full use of the special conditions and geographical environment of Zhou Garden. He had a thorough understanding of the greed of human practitioners before wealth cultivation, and had a perfect grasp of people's hearts, so he sneaked into Zhou Garden. There are only a few masters of the demon clan, which is enough to cause chaos and turmoil in the entire Zhou Garden. If it weren't for Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng, Zhou Garden might have turned into a real Shura field at this time. The problem is that the current human practitioners have noticed Seeing the demon's conspiracy, most people gathered together. If they entered into a frontal battle, no matter how strong the demon master was, he could not be the opponent of hundreds of human practitioners.

Nan Ke's expression remained indifferent and he did not explain anything. He just said, If Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng meet other human masters in this situation, they may die earlier.

…

…

The water between the reeds and the shore gradually calmed down, and then was covered with a thin layer of ice.

Chen Changsheng's body was wet, and the water stains quickly condensed into frost. His eyebrows and temples were stained with snow, as if he had premature hair. He, who was already a bit precocious, looked even more vicissitudes of life.

Xu Yourong naturally noticed the abnormality in his body, raised his eyebrows slightly, and took his pulse again. He found that this man's true energy was as thin as before, but the injuries on his internal organs had stabilized, but his heartbeat and breathing were slower than normal. They were all much slower, but they didn’t know whether it was because of the special skills this person practiced or whether it was a sign of death.

Because of the toxin, her vision was still blurry, and she could only vaguely see the man's face, which was covered with snow and frost. He looked a bit mature. She was quiet for a while, and suddenly reached out to wipe off the snow and frost on his face. , and then she was stunned, not understanding why she did this.

Walking into the woods shrouded in morning light, she stepped on the soft fallen leaves and walked quietly for dozens of feet. She stopped again and looked at a cliff in the distance ahead.

In the woods, there are roads trod by predecessors. Although they are covered by fallen leaves, you can still vaguely see the traces of the past. They stretch forward and then turn around the cliff to form a zigzag shape.

She gently placed Chen Changsheng in her hand on the fallen leaves, took out the tung bow, pulled the bow string to a semicircle, and aimed there, without saying a word.

The morning breeze accompanied the morning light into the woods. The morning light was obscured by the leaves, and the forest was very quiet. However, the morning breeze was not cut into pieces by the branches. It gently blew the hair around her face. Those hair occasionally touched the bowstring, but did not make any sound. The sound is like the gentlest fingertips gently pressing the bow string, ready to burst into strong sounds at the next moment.

Some leaves were carried off the branches by the wind, slowly falling in the blurry and dim world before her eyes, until they fell at her feet.

The long bow remained motionless, her eyelashes did not blink, her expression was calm and focused, she only looked at the cliff and the empty place.

The moment the leaf fell in front of her feet, an old voice sounded from the cliff: Is this a friend?

Following this voice, the first thing that appeared outside the cliff was a hand. The wrist was tied with a gray thread. It was holding a wooden sign. The wooden sign was painted with vermilion paint to form an extremely complicated figure. The sect's emblem, I don't know what's weird about the paint, but from such a distance, I can feel a clear sense of dryness and heat.

Human practitioners who enter Zhou Garden will have gray lines to guide them. The sect's micronote on the wooden sign indicates their identity. It is just a simple action, but it represents multiple meanings. It can avoid unnecessary misunderstandings as much as possible. From this detail, you can It can be seen that the owner of that old voice is very cautious.

Xu Yourong could only vaguely see the blurry picture and could not see the details clearly, but judging from the calm expression on her face, she could not tell this. She heard strong alertness and vigilance from the person's voice, thinking Thinking about the bloody battles that were the norm after the opening of Zhou Garden, and thinking that he was covered in blood, it was indeed easy to misunderstand him, so he said: Not the enemy.

When they met for the first time, they were certainly not friends, but they were not rivals either. This was the explanation she gave.

After a while, a man walked out from the other side of the cliff. The man had white hair and an old face, at least over a hundred years old. His expression was very calm and steady, but he did not hide his vigilance. Although he walked out, The right hand hanging by his waist was holding a magic weapon, as if he might take action at any time, keeping a safe distance from Xu Yourong.

This distance is very important, it can make him feel safe, and it can also make the other person feel at ease. If you are not a senior practitioner who has experienced many years of wind, frost, snow and rain, you will never have such a wonderful sense of proportion.

Xu Yourong felt the aura that the other party did not conceal but did not deliberately exude. He confirmed that this old man was a strong man at the peak of Tongyou Realm. His mood was slightly tense, but the expression on his face relaxed.

She loosened the bow string, held the long bow and said, Senior, please give me your surname.

The rules in Zhou Garden have always been bloody and violent, and the human practitioners who are no longer in the three gardens and are still hiding in the mountains are often masters. They have great ideas about the treasures and inheritance in Zhou Garden. It is inconvenient to meet such people. It was a fierce battle, and you must know that the other party most likely did not know that the demons had sneaked into Zhou Garden.

So she continued calmly and directly: The demons have sneaked into Zhou Garden, and we were injured by the demons' sneak attack.

This is still an explanation, but some meaning is added to the explanation without leaving any trace. The demons who can sneak into Zhou Garden must be powerful, but if they need a sneak attack to hurt her, then she must also be powerful.

I don’t know if the old man drew the conclusion she wanted him to draw from her seemingly casual explanation, because it was obvious that, as she had guessed before, the old man had been there ever since he entered Zhou Garden. She has been hiding in the mountains and wilds where traces are rare, deliberately avoiding contact with other practitioners, so that until now she didn't know about the demons entering Zhou Garden. When she heard her words, she was very surprised.

How can the demons enter Zhou Garden?

The old man was shocked, but he had no fear. He looked at the gray thread on his wrist and said with a sneer: No wonder there are so many weird things.

Obviously, he had completed the treasure hunt in Zhou Garden and found what he needed, so he once tried to light the gray thread to lure him away, but failed.

Xu Yourong didn't explain because the demon clan's conspiracy was too complicated and unnecessary.

The old man looked at Chen Changsheng on the fallen leaves behind her. Seeing the frost covering his body, he felt slightly surprised and asked, Is this person your companion?

Xu Yourong shook his head and said, I don't know him. I just saw him being attacked by a powerful demon and happened to save him.

You don't forget to save people at such a moment. You are a good little girl.

The old man looked at her with admiration, and then said, But where are you going?

Xu Yourong said: Human cultivators are gathering in three gardens now. I was going to take this fellow there, but because of the injury, the speed is not fast. It will take at least half a day. I am worried about being caught up by the demons. I don't want to When I meet a senior, I would like to trouble him to inform other comrades to come over and help us.

The old man showed a look of disapproval and said: We are all going together. I will send you there, how can I let you stay here and take risks?

Xu Yourong said: The demon masters who sneaked into Zhou Garden are very powerful. Seniors have to take care of the two of us. I'm afraid...

The words are full of meaning, but they are well intentioned.

The old man laughed and said: If you are outside Zhou Garden, you might have to be more careful. But here in Zhou Garden, I would like to know those powerful demons you mentioned.

His smile was free and easy, his expression was calm and calm, and his eyes were gentle and bright. When he said this, he seemed extremely confident.

A strong man at the peak of Tongyou Realm should be invincible in Zhou Garden. The old man's self-confidence has its own reasons.

For some reason, Xu Yourong didn't tell the other party that the powerful demons who sneaked into Zhou Garden were more terrifying than ordinary people at the peak of Tongyou Realm, let alone a terrifying existence like Nan Ke.

She showed an expression of curiosity and admiration and asked, Senior, who are you?

The old man said: My surname is Bai Minghai. I have practiced in the Luoyang Sect for more than two hundred years. I rarely travel outside the sect. You don't even know about it.

Xu Yourong was slightly startled and seemed a little confused by the name.

In fact, she felt a little cold.
