I have a role in the heavens

Baoxiang Kingdom is not included in the territories of dozens of countries such as Yinping and Huaihuang. The common people and martial artists have long been accustomed to ghosts and spirits. In the southeast of Beijuluzhou, ghosts and spirits have been mixed with people for countless years, so when it comes to dealing with ghosts and evil spirits, the government and the people of Baoxiang Kingdom have their own countermeasures.

The world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit. Merchants seek profit, and ghosts and spirits will instinctively pursue spiritual energy. Many ghosts will jump from Baoxiang Kingdom to the southern Huaihuang Kingdom Buyao and Yuhu counties, which has also led to the recent unrest in Baoxiang Kingdom.

As the sun sets, the orange light dyes half of the sky, and the fire clouds are gorgeous and magnificent, with various shapes and ever-changing, which is very eye-catching.

Zhou Jue walked out of the Yellow Wind Valley, which was full of yellow sand. He was dressed in a blue shirt, dust-free, clean and pure. He had a sword on his waist, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and he was in high spirits. He exuded a strong bookish air, like a scholar who traveled all over the world, which made people like him more.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Zhou Jue walked slowly to the green lake, which was called the Dumb Lake by the local people for some reason. This bottomless Dumb Lake has never dried up for thousands of years. No matter how severe the drought is for several years, the lake level will not drop by one foot, and no matter how heavy the rain is, the lake water will not rise by one inch.

There were already several groups of people gathered here, burning several bonfires, and the atmosphere was noisy. Most of these people were caravans that traveled all over the country, with many guards responsible for safety. They were very experienced. They looked at Zhou Jue's arrival, and saw that the visitor was just a young man of his youth, who was not a big threat. Then they relaxed their vigilance a little, picked up the wine bowl in their hands again, and drank a lot.

Zhou Jue did not get close to these people. He chose a place to rest alone. He picked up some dry branches around and lit a bonfire. The fire flickered, and the mottled light and shadow swayed on his face. The light and shadow alternated, which seemed particularly mysterious.

At night, the silver moon was high in the sky, and the cold air gradually became thicker, so many people put on thick clothes. Only Zhou Jue was wearing a blue shirt, which looked very thin, which attracted the attention of many guards of the caravan. They knew that this young man was not as simple as he seemed.

Several sword lights lit up in the west, sweeping towards the Yellow Wind Valley with great momentum, and fell on the land dozens of miles away from the Dumb Lake. The sword lights were crisscrossed, accompanied by the wailing and roaring of ghosts. About an incense stick later, the bright sword lights left the ground. During this period, whether it was the escorts who knew some boxing postures or the passing merchants, everyone was calm and just drank, lively and discussed which mountain sword cultivator came here to practice sword.

The sword lights had long gone away, the night was deep, and few people rested by the lake. Even those naughty children were very energetic, holding wooden swords and bamboo swords, constantly waving, competing with each other, laughing and chasing each other.

Zhou Jue caught a fat wild rabbit from somewhere, skinned it and bled it, and processed it with extremely skillful techniques. He inserted branches and roasted it on the campfire. The pink rabbit meat soon turned golden yellow, and the sizzling fat dripped on the ground. The rich aroma spread, causing many people to drool.

Zhou Jue's movements were neither hurried nor slow, and were well-organized. From time to time, he took out some bottles and jars from his arms and sprinkled some powder on the golden rabbit meat. The aroma became more and more intense, and you could clearly hear the swallowing sounds of many people around him, salivating.

Zhou Jue turned a blind eye to this. When he was out, there was no need to have too much contact with people he met by chance. He turned the barbecue in his hand and concentrated on it.

At this moment, a woman in white wearing a bamboo hat, with a graceful and beautiful figure, slowly walked to the edge of the Dumb Lake, squatted down, stretched out a pair of soft hands, with slender fingers, soft as if boneless, and scooped up a handful of lake water to wash her cheeks. As she raised her hands, she revealed a white wrist, on which she wore a string of snow-white bells, which made a tinkling sound, which was very pleasant to the ear.

Zhou Jue paused slightly, looked up at the woman by the lake, and a trace of fluctuation flashed in his sword eyes. He observed a ripple in the center of the lake, and a black head emerged a little from the water, cautiously poking his head out, as if observing the surrounding environment, and then sank into the water again, as if he had never appeared.

The woman in white seemed to be completely unaware, and was only carefully grooming her forehead and temples. Every time she raised her hand and wrist, a bell sounded softly, but it was covered by the noise of people drinking and having fun by the lake.

A huge whirlpool appeared silently on the lake, and then suddenly jumped out a strange fish that was more than ten feet long. Its body was as black as ink, and it opened its bloody mouth, revealing teeth as sharp as swords, and pounced on the woman in white.

Seeing this, Zhou Jue stopped turning the barbecue in his hands and looked up at the eight directions around the Dumb Lake. Eight men appeared at the same time, holding compasses, which smashed into the sand surface and laid a formation restriction.

The eight people pinched the seals in their hands and stepped on the Gang step. In an instant, a bright silver Bagua diagram formation appeared on the lake, which could compete with the moonlight.

The eight people cooperated tacitly. They each stretched out their hand and pulled out a silver line from the compass on the ground. Then they put their fingers together and pointed to the sky above the center of the lake. The eight silver lines intertwined with each other to form a fishing net, which covered the space around the leaping black fish monster, blocking all escape routes and trapping it firmly inside.

The fish monster had already sensed something was wrong when the compass hit the ground, and quickly closed her mouth. However, the strong inertia prevented her from immediately returning to the lake surface, and still rushed towards the woman in a white hat who stood up suddenly. .

When the woman in white saw this, she did not retreat but advanced. She was very calm, took a step forward, jumped up high, made a fist with her white and tender right hand, and punched out with amazing force, directly knocking down the huge fish monster. He fell into the Bagua formation on the lake.

The Gen Gua of the Bagua Array lit up, and a small mountain condensed out of thin air, hitting the fish monster's head and smashing it towards Zhen Gua. Several electric lights flashed and struck the fish monster's huge body, crackling, the fish monster The pain is unbearable, Continuously struggling, it fell into the Li hexagram again. Flames were burning across the sky. The poor fish monster was struggling endlessly and fell into other hexagram positions. It was shot by ice picks and finally turned into a little black-clothed little creature. girl.

The little girl looked aggrieved. She kept running away and wailing, her chubby little hands kept wiping her tears. She looked pitiful and made people feel distressed. She kept dodging various attacks in the Bagua array.

At this time, everyone by the lake was drinking heavily and cheering constantly. They were watching the excitement without a trace of fear or panic. In Baoxiang Kingdom, the biggest excitement was the immortal master catching monsters, which was more lively and festive than the Chinese New Year.

The little girl in black plunged into the Xun Gua, and a log as thick as the head of a well fell down. She had no time to avoid it. She suppressed her fear, took a deep breath, raised her hands above her head, and held up the tree tightly. A log, with snot and tears on his face, he expressed his grievances with a cry.

"That string of bells belongs to me. I gave it to a passing scholar who almost died. He said he was going to Beijing to take the exam and he didn't have any money, so I gave it to him and promised to return it to me. It’s been over a hundred years and he still hasn’t paid me back, oh oh oh, big liar!”

The little girl in black kept sniffling, and her face was full of grievances. They were all lies. Back then, the scholar said that his greatest interest in life was not to be an official, but to write a popular fantasy novel. He would definitely write one. articles about her, and It must have been extremely long, rich in color, and even had a name, which was called the Great Water Monster of Dumb Lake. At that time, she was so envious that she was drooling with admiration. She also specifically reminded the scholar to portray himself as more sinister and more morally virtuous. The scholar agreed readily.

Now the little girl in black has seen the string of bells again, but she still hasn’t seen the article she has been waiting for for a hundred years. Even if there are fewer words, it doesn’t matter!

During this period of time, Zhou Jue traveled around the world and traveled more than ten thousand miles. He saw countless ghosts and monsters, most of which were filled with evil spirits, ferocious and cruel. He often drew his sword to kill monsters. There is enough blood to fill this mute lake.

But Zhou Jue has never seen a monster like this little girl in black. There is no evil aura around her body, but a strong aura of merit. The reason why the water level of the Dumb Lake has not increased or decreased should be attributed to this little girl. Girl.

For hundreds of years, merchants and travelers have stayed here overnight, and there have never been any casualties. We should be grateful to the little girl for her protection.

Although it is natural for immortal masters to subjugate monsters and catch monsters, they must also pay attention to good and evil, right and wrong, and cannot confuse right and wrong. They do not talk about karma and retribution, and just generalize everything.

The woman in white was a martial artist of the Five Realms. She went to the lake to wash her face on purpose, in order to lure the big water monster of the mute lake.

"Don't worry, we are just taking you back under the orders of the National Preceptor of Liangou State, not to kill you. There is a missing river woman over there. The National Preceptor has taken a liking to you and needs you to take charge of the water transportation. I will treat you It’s not a bad thing!”

A smile appeared on the face of the woman in white. She looked up at the trapped little girl in black and explained a few words. Her expression was arrogant and a bit condescending, as if this little girl in black was a great honor.

"I'm not going to lie to you either. The scholar from the Qiangou Kingdom who gave you the bell was very unkind and had no intention of returning the bell to you. He kept it as a family heirloom, and his descendants even gave it to the Qiangou Kingdom. Imperial Master, I was promoted to the first rank, and by the way, I helped the scholar get a posthumous title. If you want to scold me, you can scold him harder until you become He Po."

"Now you'd better be obedient and surrender, so as not to continue to suffer!"

The little girl in black's arms were trembling slightly, and the log above her head was falling continuously, and she was about to lose her support. She still refused to surrender, and said very aggrievedly.

"I'm almost turning into a boiled fish. You big bad guys who like to fight and kill me. I don't want to go with you. I just like here. This is my home. I won't go anywhere! I don't want to move. What kind of mother-in-law I am, what kind of mother-in-law is this?”

The woman in white was also very fond of the innocence of the little girl in black. She did not rush to ask her brothers to close the magic circle and capture the little girl by force, but followed the good guidance.

"Then I'll take a step back and not hand you over to the Imperial Master of the Liangou Kingdom. I'll let you do whatever the hell you are doing!"

"But you must follow me back to the master's gate and move to a new home. I can't make this trip in vain. If I come back empty-handed, the master will blame me. There is a river near my master's gate, and now there is a water god sitting there. Take a look first. What's it like to be a water god? If you think it's good to be a river goddess, how about I take you to the Imperial Master's Mansion?"

Hearing this, the little girl in black nodded hesitantly, agreeing to the woman in white's proposal, and said playfully.

"good!"

The woman in white made a secret with her hands, muttered words, and controlled the spiritual energy to remove the column above the Xun Gua. The little girl in black jumped on the spot a few times, lowered her arms, swayed back and forth a few times, and her big eyes rolled around. , showing a bit of cunning.

"Don't even think about running away, otherwise you may become braised fish or steamed fish."

The little girl in black's mouth tightened, her eyes turned red and shimmering again, her little nose kept twitching, and she said with a hint of crying.

"Then you'd better beat me to death. If I leave here, I might as well just die."

The woman in white and her senior brothers felt a little helpless. This little fish monster was simple-minded and innocent, and it was not easy for them to bully each other.

Just at this moment, a bright sword light flew from the west, arriving in an instant. A young sword cultivator wearing a light purple robe, with a golden hairpin on his head, faintly flashing with lightning, hovered over the crowd. From above, looking down at the little girl in black, she spoke arrogantly.

"This little mute lake demon is extremely difficult to catch, but you guys are good at it. How much did it cost, I bought it!"

"Master Jin, I'm sorry, but I can't sell this little monster to you!"

This young swordsman was born in the Golden Crow Palace of Baoxiang Kingdom, and was the Young Palace Master of the Golden Crow Palace. His mother had a cruel temperament, and his natal weapon was a ghost-fighting whip made from the green bamboo of Qingshen Mountain. His biggest hobby was whipping maids to death. Except for one person who was lucky enough to survive and become the old nun, the rest of the maids died and were thrown into the thunder clouds on the top of the Golden Crow Palace, unable to survive.

Of course, the Golden Crow Palace is not considered an evil cultivator. It goes down the mountain to kill demons and eliminate demons without sparing any effort, and it also likes to choose difficult ghost kings and evil demons. It's just that the palace lord of the Golden Crow Palace is afraid of his wife, who is the daughter of Lord Dayue, so that all the female nuns and maids in the Golden Crow Palace don't dare to say a word to the palace lord.

The woman in white had a good impression of the little girl in black and liked her very much. She didn't want to let this innocent little girl suffer, so she refused Mr. Jin's request without hesitation.

The monks of the Golden Crow Palace have a clear distinction between love and hate, are moody, unreasonable, and extremely difficult to deal with. The refusal of the woman in white irritated the Young Palace Master of the Golden Crow Palace. He raised his eyebrows, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said in a cold voice with shocking aura.

"You don't have to drink wine as a penalty, but you have to make me draw my sword in order to obey? You are just a fifth-level martial artist in Qingqing Mansion. Although you still know some talismans, you are still not worth mentioning in front of me!"

"Do you believe that after I destroyed your face with my sword, I can still buy this little monster?!"

"Don't worry, I will still pay the money, but I will also keep your Qingqing Mansion in mind!"

The woman in white sighed. She couldn't afford to offend the young palace master of the Golden Crow Palace, and she didn't want to implicate her master. She glanced at the little girl in black with regret and nodded in agreement.

When the little girl in black saw this, she also understood her situation. Her little body kept trembling, and she held her head in her hands, looking very scared. Her big black and white eyes were filled with tears, and the pear blossoms were raining, which was pitiful.

Zhou Jue put down the barbecue in his hand, stood up, walked slowly to the edge of the lake, stopped in front of the woman in white, looked up at the young swordsman, and spoke slowly.

"Forcible buying and selling can be considered reasonable. It's really unnecessary to take off your pants and fart! You might as well just grab it and let me look at you."

Hearing Zhou Jue's words, before the young swordsman and the woman in white could speak, the little girl in black spoke first, lowered her hands holding her head, looked at Zhou Jue curiously, and said innocently.

"It's wrong to take off your pants and fart. It's a cold night in the Yellow Wind Valley, and your buttocks are so cold that you might freeze! Anyone who does this is a big fool!"

Zhou Jue turned to look at the innocent little girl in black, with a smile on his lips, nodded in agreement and said.

"You're right, anyone who takes off his pants and farts is a fool!"

When the little girl in black saw Zhou Jue agreeing with her words, she smiled happily, hovering in the air, sitting cross-legged, with her hands folded across her chest, looking proud and proud, completely forgetting her current miserable situation.

Mr. Jin's face darkened, and the evil aura in his eyes became even stronger. He raised his sword eyebrows, quietly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, stared at Zhou Jue with fierce eyes, and said sternly.

"Oh! You are so brave, how dare you meddle in my business?"

"If the road is not level, someone will plow it, and if it is not level, someone will take care of it. I have decided to take care of today's affairs, you can just draw the line, why bother talking nonsense!"

Zhou Jue curled his lips, his eyes were indifferent, and he raised his head to stare at Mr. Jin. Although he was standing below, he seemed to be living in the nine heavens, overlooking the ups and downs of all living beings in the world, like an ancient god.

Although Mr. Jin has a domineering and arrogant personality, he has the cultivation level of Guanhai Realm at a young age. He is by no means a brainless idiot. He frowns slightly and looks at the calm and confident Zhou Jue suspiciously, unable to tell the details of his cultivation level. , said in a deep voice.

"If you want to stand out, shouldn't you name yourself so that I can know your origins?"

When Zhou Jue heard this, his eyes were slightly surprised. This guy was not as reckless as he seemed on the surface. He also knew that he would first inquire about his origin and identity before deciding whether to take action, which was considered wise. No wonder he could practice to such a level.

"Zhou Jue!"

Zhou Jue did not hide his identity, his voice was not loud, but it was like a thunder, which made the overbearing and arrogant Master Jin break into cold sweat, his body fell directly from the air, he bent down and cupped his fists, and said with a trembling voice.

"Please calm down Zhou Jianxian, I don't know that Jin Le is rude!"

Although Zhou Jue came to Baoxiang Country for the first time, his reputation had already spread throughout the world. The sword cultivators in Beijuluzhou admired this great sword immortal who asked for the sword and fought against the Great Ancestor of the Wilderness alone.

Jin Le, as a sword cultivator, was also like this. He was secretly angry that he was rude in front of Zhou Jue and regretted his actions just now.

Zhou Jue raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this. He didn't expect that he would be recognized. He hesitated for a while before speaking.

"This girl is innocent and cute. I like her very much. I don't want anyone to embarrass her!"

Jin Le nodded hurriedly after hearing this and assured his idol.

"Please rest assured, Sword Immortal Zhou. I will spread the word in Jinwu Palace that no one in Baoxiang Country is allowed to embarrass this dumb little demon!"
