Chapter 11 Chapter 8: Accidental Encounter

Liu Yuanteng's pursuit of power may be to break free from the shackles imposed on him by his family, or to prove something to others. In short, no one is truly desireless. I said to the two uncles: "Even if it is inferred from this that Duguqi is not completely controlled by the fire crow, the strength he has shown has greatly surpassed mine. If I can break through the 'Nine Curves and Eighteen Bends' exercise The eighth song realm, if you practice this technique to the peak, I will win the battle with the fire crow between five and five, otherwise, I'm afraid I will be more negative."

Uncle Song smiled and said, "Let's tell the two of us the 'Nine Curves and Eighteen Bends' exercise. Perhaps some opinions from your Uncle Bei and I will move you." I helped Feng Rou sit on the chair, and then explained the "Nine Curves and Eighteen Bends" exercise to the two masters in detail. The two uncles listened carefully to what I said, and fell into deep thought.After a while, Uncle Bei said with joy and emotion: "This exercise is rigorous and extensive. No wonder you are praised as the number one master of the younger generation. I used to feel that I am not old, but now I really feel that I am not old. You are old, the world is yours now."

Uncle Song looked at me with admiration in his eyes, and he said leisurely: "After I pass away, I am relieved that there are excellent young people like you in Taohuayuan. , is already very mature, and you can create it, which means that you are a generation of masters, and you have your own unique understanding of yourself and the world, and I can't give you any pointers. If you want to cultivate to the last level of this exercise, you have to Rely on yourself, you can’t borrow someone else’s hands.” I was full of hope at first, because both of them are masters of a generation, with rich experience, maybe they can guide me to break through to the last level of the "Nine Curves and Eighteen Bends" exercise. Had to give up this idea.

Seeing my disappointment, Uncle Song couldn't help but smiled and said: "You don't have to be depressed, the reason why I came out of Peach Blossom Spring was because I really wanted to have a look at the outside world before I died; secondly, I received the tripod God sent me the news, so I came here specially to find you." I cheered up and said, "Does Cauldron God have any good ways to deal with Huo Ya?" Uncle Bei said: "The beast of Greedy Wolf told us that you and your little beast king are no longer the opponents of Fire Crow, so you still need some helpers."

I said, "Will the Greedy Wolf Divine Beast help me? Or will it appear to help me the day I fight the Fire Crow?" Master Song said: "The Greedy Wolf Divine Beast has been consuming its own power to maintain the existence of the Cauldron God World for ten thousand years, and the power of the stars it absorbs every day cannot make up for this consumption, so it is now much weaker than the Fire Crow. It’s hard to come and help you.” I said dejectedly: "Since the greedy wolf beast can't come, I'm afraid other people can't help." Master Bei said solemnly: "Don't underestimate the heroes of the world. Although few people can match your current cultivation level, there are so many heroes in the world, there will always be someone who can help you."

Uncle Bei's words made me realize that I was indeed a little arrogant, and I said awkwardly: "I didn't mean that. As one of the four ancient beasts, the fire crow is one of the four ancient beasts, and others will avoid it. Who else is willing to help me deal with the fire crow?" Crow? And my own friends, I can't bear to see them die at the hands of Fire Crow just to help me." Uncle Song said: "The fire crow is one of the four great beasts of the ancient times. It is good at manipulating the fire energy. If you want to restrain it, you must find five people who control the five energies of earth, water, wind, fire, and ice to form an array. , seal it in this tripod."

Uncle Song took out a small tripod from his pocket, its shape was like an oil lamp, the whole exuded a misty jade-like oily light, the body of the tripod was dark green, and there were various wonders outlined by simple lines on it. , I can't help but marvel that there are such uncanny craftsmanship in the world. Uncle Song continued: "The greedy wolf god beast used most of the remaining power to create this spirit cauldron. The fire crow must be completely damaged before this spirit cauldron can function and seal it inside, otherwise the power of the spirit cauldron cannot be suppressed. Fire Crow’s. You put away the spirit cauldron. When you use it, you only need to input the power of the stars in your body to activate the spirit cauldron. It is said that when the world first opened, there were the five most primitive energies—earth, water , wind, fire, and ice, if these five energies are combined, they will explode with unimaginable power."

I took the lamp-shaped spirit tripod and solemnly put it in my arms.I said, "I don't know if there are any suitable candidates for the two uncles." Master Song said: "There are many young masters in Taohuayuan, but each of them is a disciple of our three sects. They have refined their flower heart, wine heart, and loyalty heart, and they do not meet the requirements of a single pure energy such as earth, water, wind, fire, and ice. It is most suitable for these people to be found among the New Humans. I know that you have a lot of friends among the New Humans, so I will leave it to you to find suitable candidates."

I said in embarrassment: "This matter is important, and I don't know which talents meet the requirements at the moment." Uncle Bei said: "These five people are indeed very important, and it is best that the strength of the five people is similar, so that the power of such a combination will be greater. I know you have a divine sword, and there is a water element sealed in the divine sword. In this way, you can act as the water in the formation of five people. Of course, the magic sword "Water of Water" in Xiao Tie's hand is more effective, and the seal in the magic sword is Jiuxuan Guizhu. Yu Xuangui is the avatar of the divine beast. I heard that there are several similar divine swords in the new human world, if you can invite the holders of these divine swords to help you, I think the chances of success will be greater."

I said happily: "Li Qiuyu won the divine sword 'Intangible Wind' in the Pet Beast Contest, which can be used as the wind in the formation. Liu Rushi has the divine sword 'Frostmourne', which can be used as the ice in the formation. Lizhu Chi There is a divine sword 'Passion of Fire', which seals a powerful ancient fierce beast called the 'Fifth Divine Beast'. Excalibur." Uncle Bei said: "As long as you can find a divine sword-level weapon with an earth attribute, you will be more confident in sealing the Fire Crow. You don't have to worry, the Fire Crow will not come to look for you until it can completely control Duguqi Bad luck. Since it escaped from the world of the Tripod God, it has fought against you several times. It hates you deeply, but it also has deep scruples about you. In addition, you are the person chosen by the greedy wolf beast. I'm sure I won't come to you on my own initiative."

I said: "Uncle Bei's analysis is indeed reasonable, but now there are two individual consciousnesses in Duguqi's body, which is equivalent to schizophrenia. If he goes crazy, no one can say what he can do." Uncle Bei didn't worry about my situation, instead he laughed and said: "Life is full of uncertain factors, that's why people's life is colorful, if everything can be predicted accurately, then what's the fun? " Uncle Song also burst out laughing, looking very happy, I followed with a wry smile. Uncle Song laughed, and said to me: "You don't have to worry, the road to banishing the demon is long, how can you walk it alone? When you are in a decisive battle with the fire crow, there will be a master to help you!" I was surprised, Master Song's words seemed to tell me that they had already made other preparations to ensure everything would be safe.Jiang is still old and spicy, I asked: "Who will help me in a big battle?" Uncle Song and Uncle Bei looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled without saying a word. Master Song said: "You know this person, you don't need to ask more questions now, you will know when the time comes." Seeing the two pretending to be mysterious, I also suppressed my curiosity. Since they said that there will be experts to help me when the time comes, they will definitely not lie to me. I just need to prepare with peace of mind. At night, when the lights of all houses were turned on, Fengrou woke up leisurely.In an environment as cold as water at night, I accompanied her to find a coffee shop with lights still on, ordered two cups of hot and strong coffee and drank it. Feng Rou quietly held the cup and looked at the night under the dim light outside the window, the autumn wind rolled up a fallen leaf from time to time, her pretty face looked particularly pale because she had just sobered up. I know she is still thinking about what Uncle Song said during the day, the youngest daughter's family always has special feelings about life and death.I said: "Everything in the world will have a day of death and parting. Master Song has seen through life and death, so we don't need to worry about him anymore. He is over two hundred years old, and he has an extremely long lifespan among new humans. What's there to be sad about? He's luckier than most, after all." Fengrou looked at me with her deep eyes, then took a sip of the coffee in the cup and said, "I understand these principles naturally, but there is always some sadness in my heart that I can't bear to part with." In order to distract her attention, I smiled wryly on purpose: "I'm probably the one who has to worry more now. When you were so drunk that you fell asleep before, I discussed with the two seniors how to deal with the fire crow." Speaking of which, I stopped to take a sip of coffee, and said with a bitter face: "After drinking so many times, I'm still not used to the taste of coffee, especially the one without sugar." Feng Rou pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "What method is it?" I said: "According to the two masters, when the heaven and the earth were formed, there were five kinds of the most primitive energies - earth, water, wind, fire, and ice. After that, these five energies merged with each other and derived various kinds of energies. The type of energy. If these five most primitive energies can be combined in one place, unimaginable power will erupt, and this power is hard to resist even the fire crow, one of the four great beasts." Fengrou said pleasantly: "Then we are now looking for someone with these five kinds of energy? It's a pity that I have practiced alchemy now, and the energy is not pure, so I can't help you." I laughed and said, "Just having five people with these five energies is not enough to pose a threat to the Fire Crow. Five weapons of the Excalibur level with these five attributes are needed to completely defeat the Fire Crow. seal." Feng Rou said with a look of embarrassment: "It's too difficult to find five weapons of the Excalibur level and also meet these five attributes." I said: "It's very difficult, but I don't know if it's God's will. Now I can find five divine swords that match the four attributes, namely my 'Fish Sealing Sword', Xiaotie's 'Water Drifting', Li Qiuyu's "The Formless Wind", Liu Rushi's "Frostmourne", and Lizhu China's "Fire Passion". Now there is only one earth-attribute Excalibur-level weapon that has no clue." Fengrou said happily: "These four, sister Li Qiuyu and sister Lizhu China are all your good friends, and they have a sense of justice, so they should not refuse. Xiaotie and Liu Rushi are both your apprentices, let alone Rejecting you is just that Xiao Tie is still a child, and his cultivation level is also very low, so he only needs to borrow the Excalibur to use it." I nodded and said: "The most urgent thing is to contact Li Qiuyu, Lizhu China, and Liu Rushi first, so that they can make preparations. At the same time, I need to trouble the bounty hunter organization to help me find an earth-attribute sword-level weapon." Feng Judao: "This can be wrapped on my body, Dad will definitely help." I smiled and nodded and said: "I still need to contact some seniors among the new humans. Maybe some seniors of the new humans have forged the divine sword of earth attribute before." The next day, Fengrou went to look for Song Tianyue and Bei Qianshan's two uncles, but they left early in the morning. A few days later, the grand event initiated by the Bounty Hunter Organization has been successfully concluded, and twelve convincing representatives from all over the world have also been elected. During this period, although some underworld forces were dissatisfied with the grand event, they only made some tentative actions in the coffee city. This situation surprised the bounty hunter organization on high alert.What's even more strange is that, as the "sufferers" of this event, Du Mugan and his gang didn't even show their faces, let alone take any action.But no matter what, the grand event ended successfully without any surprises, which made everyone very satisfied. After the event, families, organizations, gangs and twelve representatives from all over the world began to leave the coffee city one after another. During these two days, I first contacted Li Qiuyu. As the next successor of the Patriarch, Li Qiuyu was undergoing rigorous training from the family, but she also promised me that she would come to me as soon as the training was over.In fact, for this event, Li Qiuyu's family also sent several senior members of the family to attend, including representatives from the Liu family and Leo's family. Representatives from Fang Bing's family also came. Since several experts in their family have been serving as instructors in different departments of the army, their support can be regarded as semi-official. Afterwards, I contacted Liu Rushi. Liu Rushi's cultivation base has improved greatly, and he is quite proficient in using the divine sword "Frostmourne". Can let Liu Rushi calmly drive. Afterwards, I asked Yan Chengyu to send someone back to Taohuayuan to borrow Xiaotie's divine sword "Waterfall". It's not easy to get in touch with Lizhu China, so I have to go to Yunyan City in person to find Lizhu China and tell the whole story. With Lizhu China's personality, she must not refuse to help me. On the second day after the event, Feng Rou and I bid farewell to Granny Dan and Dad, and flew directly to Yunyan City by spaceship. When I came to Yunyan City again, I found that it has changed a lot compared to a few years ago. Although the dilapidated and desolate city in the past is still not comparable to the first- and second-class big cities, it is also full of vitality .There are people coming and going in the city, most of them are locals, and some foreigners in different clothes can also be seen in the crowd.The dilapidated houses that were originally dilapidated are now being renovated, and fruit and vegetable shops, restaurants, and hotels can be seen everywhere. It was the first time for Feng Rou to come here, and the people, buildings, decorations, and clothes here were full of fresh mystery to her.We wandered around all the way. Now that we have come here, we are not in such a hurry to go to the underground city to find Lizhu China. Fengrou and I walked in the market with great interest.Since Xiangjiabao was razed to the ground in the great battle that day, many desert tribesmen also came out from the depths of the desert and settled down in Yunyan City again.After all, with the development of science and technology in today's era, Yunyan City has a 24-hour supply of electricity and clean water. In addition, Yunyan City is protected by an energy shield, which is not afraid of storms and sand. Living here is like living in a huge oasis. I don't know how many times better it is in the desert. However, due to the long-term struggle between Xiangjiabao and the native people in the desert, the local residents have no good impression of the new humans. Although Xiangjiabao no longer exists, they still have hostility to the new humans that appeared in Yunyan City. Because of the restless golden snub-nosed monkey pet animal Sisi on Fengrou's shoulder, we got a lot of stares. Although she had seen a lot and was tired from walking, Feng Rou still looked enthusiastic.I dragged Fengrou into a restaurant that serves meals. The reason why I entered this small shop was because the name of the shop moved me - Zizai Xiaodian.In a small shop, the owner of the shop is also a wonderful person. Who in this world doesn't want to live freely? As soon as Fengrou and I entered the store, some locals gave us cold eyes.We've had a lot of stares along the way, now Fengrou and I have developed immunity, we can walk through the crowd without blushing and heartbeat, and find an empty seat in a corner to sit down. As soon as we sat down, the clerk brought me a plate of local specialty melons and fruits, and then stood aside, waiting for our order. The tables and chairs in the store are very clean, which makes people quite satisfied at first sight.Fengrou grabbed the menu, studied it carefully, and asked again, and finally chose a few from a dozen dishes that she liked very much. While we patiently waited for the dishes to be delivered, we first ate some melons and fruits to satisfy our hunger. It should be said that although this place is a desert and the climate is arid, the melons and fruits are unique. Compared with the melons and fruits in places with sufficient water sources, they are sweeter and more delicious.The predecessor of Yunyan City was a small town in a basin. Groundwater flows into the basin, and there are surrounding rocks above the ground to block the hot wind and sand. The locals planted some melons and fruits. Because of their rare taste, they are famous in many cities.Later, minerals such as oil were discovered in the desert, and the federal government vigorously expanded the town, forming the scale of today's Yunyan City. Fengrou and Sisi ate each other as if they were sharing fruits, and at the same time listened to me talking about the past and present of Yunyan City with great interest. Not long after, the few dishes we asked for were delivered. Feng Rou nodded frequently after eating, it seems that the taste of this small shop's food is quite to her liking. When we were about to check out, the clerk told us that our money had been waived by the owner, and the owner kindly invited us to meet. Feng Rou and I looked at each other, we really couldn't think that there would be our acquaintances here. After pondering for a while, Fengrou and I followed the clerk to the backyard of the shop. In the backyard, there are a few Bactrian camels lazily hiding under the stables and eating grass. There is a well opposite the stables, and I can feel the strong water vapor coming out of the well five or six meters away.Five houses lined up at the bottom of the yard. The clerk led us to the yard and said: "Our master is waiting for you two inside." After speaking, he left directly. Feng Judao: "Could it be your former friend?" I was surprised and said: "Could it be that the clansman of Lizhu China opened the restaurant here? Anyway, no matter who it is, I hope it's not an enemy." Feng Judao: "How can there be enemies here?" I said, "People from Xiangjiabao." Before he finished speaking, the door of the room in the middle opened with a "squeak", and a black and thin man came out. The black and thin man grinned at us, his eyes full of sincerity, and said: "Lan Hu, I never expected to meet you here." I was surprised and unexpected: "Xiang Heishou! Why did you come back to Yunyan City?" Xiang Heishou smiled lightly and said, "Xiangjiabao has fallen, so where can we live in the world? Besides, we have lived here for so many years, and we have long regarded this place as our home, so we can live a solid life here." My surprise was not unreasonable. The enmity between the Xiangjiabao and the desert tribe has already developed to the point of incompatibility. Elimination, if someone finds Xiang Heishou here, how can he survive? I was surprised that Xiang Hei Shou appeared here, but I was even more surprised by Xiang Hei Shou's indifference.His eyes were full of peace, without the vicissitudes and depression when he first met him a few years ago.From his demeanor and expression, I deduced that his swordsmanship must have reached its peak, and Xiang Jiabao's great change has actually fulfilled his climb in martial arts. Feng Rou naturally knew the identity of Xiang Hei Shou, her apricot eyes revealed an unbelievable look, she looked at Xiang Hei Shou in shock and said: "Xiang...Teacher Xiang." Fengrou was probably thinking about how to address Xiang Heishou, after hesitating for a while, she respectfully called Teacher. When Xiang Heishou was a teacher at the Ancient Asia Beast School, neither Feng Rou nor I had entered the Beast School yet, but after all, he used to be a teacher at the Beast School, so he should be respected. Since we were acquaintances and obviously had no ill intentions towards us, we naturally followed Xiang Heshou into the house. As soon as I sat down, I said, "You live here, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the desert tribes, which will be bad for you?" Xiang Heishou smiled nonchalantly: "Firstly, the so-called most dangerous place is the safest place. Who would have thought that instead of traveling as far as we could, we would live under their noses? Secondly, I was in Xiangjia When I was in the fort, I lived in secluded places, and few people from the desert tribes had ever seen me, so as long as I pay more attention, no one will find out our identities." It turns out that Fengrou and I suddenly realized that, but we also admire him for his boldness.As an ordinary person, even if he knew this truth, he would not dare to bet his own life. I asked again: "Are Mrs. Zun and Shaba also in Yunyan City?" He nodded to Black Hand and said, "Of course they are with me."
