step on mountains and rivers

While Liu Ruxue and Wu Xing'er were fighting fiercely with the enemy, Li Zhenwu, Tang Qingfeng, and Jiang Ling were closely chasing Wu Yue. On the way, the three found that the young priest at the Phoenix Festival was following them closely.

Seeing that the crowd was about to catch up with Wu Yue, swish, swish, several hidden weapons flew out from the bushes, approaching Jiang Ling, and stopped Jiang Ling and the young priest behind him who were advancing at high speed.

Li Zhenwu and Tang Qingfeng looked back and saw two people suddenly appearing from the bushes, blocking Jiangling's way, and the moment they wanted to turn around to support, Wu Yue took the opportunity to distance themselves from them.Seeing this, Jiang Ling hurriedly shouted at them:

"Don't worry about me, go after Wu Yue!"

The two of them took a look at Jiang Ling and saw that the young priest had also stopped beside Jiang Ling, so they were relieved and continued to chase Wu Yue.Before leaving, Tang Qingfeng said to Jiang Ling:

"Don't force it, run away if you can't beat it."

As he spoke, he and Li Zhenwu disappeared in front of him.Jiang Ling looked at the backs of the two leaving, and said dissatisfied:

"Why are you running, old Tang, who do you look down on!"

Then he looked at the two people in front of him and said: "It's you again, last time it was the Immortal Medicine Valley, this time it was the Wuxian Village, it seems that you are inseparable from the Four Sacred Palace.

Coincidentally, we also want to ask you something, I think you don't have to go back, if you go back to Wuxian Village with me honestly, you can save yourself a beating. "

"Fart, you're defeated." Among the two people in front of him, a slightly shorter boy looked at him and cursed.

"Little Xing, don't be affected by his words." The young man beside Xingchen stopped him from saying.

"Okay, big brother." Xingchen returned.

The young man looked at Jiang Ling and said, "You don't need to talk nonsense. The last time you fought, if it weren't for someone else, you would have died. As for this time, I don't think anyone will be able to save you."

"Oh, really? I don't think so." Jiang Ling looked at the two and said relaxedly.Then he looked at the priest behind him and asked, "Hey, are you here to watch the excitement?"

After hearing his words, the priest came forward from behind, looked at him and said:

"My name is Lan Mo, if you can do it, I don't mind."

"Hey, don't say that, Brother Lan, my name is Jiang Ling. Wouldn't it be better for the two of us to work together to quickly deal with them and rush to support them?" Jiang Ling looked at Lan Mo and said with a smile:

"Besides, you came after Wu Yue, didn't you?"

Lan Mo listened to his words, thoughtfully, and then nodded.

"You two have finished talking, can we start?" the young man said.

"Heh, you guys are really moral, you didn't sneak up on us while we were talking," Jiang Ling said.

"It's not necessary," said the man.

"Okay, have a personality, report your name, and we will have a good fight." Jiang Ling said.

"Zhang Tian." The man turned around and stabbed at Jiangling with a short knife. Seeing Zhang Tian making a move, Xing Chen immediately followed with a machete and rushed up.

Immediately, two figures rushed towards Jiang Ling. When Jiang Ling saw it, he grabbed the gourd from his waist and threw it at the two of them. Glancing at the stars, he rushed towards Zhang Tian.

Seeing Jiangling rushing towards him, Xingchen was about to catch up, but saw a few black glazed beads flying towards him quickly. He raised his scimitar to block it, and sent the glazed beads flying, hitting the tree trunk beside him. A scorched black hole was corroded.

"It's so vicious!" Xing Chen said looking at Lan Mo in the distance.

Lan Mo glanced at him, and approached from a distance with a whoosh sound, a sharp short cyan blade with a slight curvature, with a blue cold light, quickly pierced towards Xingchen's heart.

Seeing Lan Mo rushing towards him, Xing Chen immediately picked up the scimitar to meet him. There was a sound of clashing iron and steel, and the short knives collided quickly in the air. In just a few seconds, the two had fought more than ten times. With a crisp sound, the two stopped their movements at the same time, and jumped back.

At the moment of retreating, Lan Mo quickly threw the glazed beads towards Xingchen, and Xingchen also just threw the scimitar in his hand towards him.After a few crashes, the scimitar shattered the glazed bead, and an explosion sounded between the two of them. A purple-black poisonous mist instantly covered the smoke and spread towards the two of them.

Seeing this, Xingchen quickly retracted his knife and backed away, but Lan Mo raised his short knife and rushed towards him through the smoke.

On Jiangling's side, he raised his fists, channeled his inner strength into the fists, jumped up, and punched Zhang Tian viciously with his fast fists.When Zhang Tian saw it, he backed up and dodged immediately. With a bang, Jiang Ling's fist hit the ground. Immediately, the ground shattered and sand and gravel flew everywhere.

Seeing Zhang Tian dodging, Jiang Ling immediately ran after him and punched him in the chest. Zhang Tian quickly raised his short knife to block it, and with a muffled bang, Jiang Ling sent him flying with his knife. out.

Zhang Tian stabilized his figure in the air, turned over and landed on the ground, looked at the distant river and ridge, and secretly thought:

"In just over a month, this person has made such rapid progress. In the past, it was difficult for the two of us to join forces to kill him. Now..." Thinking about it, he looked at the battle on Xingchen's side, Xingchen is struggling to cope with the opponent. "I'm afraid this task will be very difficult." Zhang Tian thought.

"Hey! Zhang Tian, ​​what are you thinking? Do you think I'm much better than before?" Jiang Ling looked at him and said proudly.

Zhang Tian came back to his senses, looked at Jiang Ling, saw Jiang Ling touched his fine iron glove, then looked at him and said:

"I don't like to owe favors. You didn't sneak up on me before, and I didn't sneak up on you this time. We're even. Next, I'm going to get real!"

As Jiang Ling said, he raised his fist and rushed over again. Zhang Tian watched Jiang Ling rushing towards him, and quickly distanced himself from him, thinking while running:

"His internal strength is too strong, you can't fight him in close quarters."

Thinking about it, he took out the hidden weapon and threw it towards Jiang Ling, and Jiang Ling, who was closely behind him, saw the hidden weapon flying towards him, raised his glove to block it, ding ding ding ding, the hidden weapon was blown away by the glove, and fell into the ground In the bushes in the distance.

After Zhang Tian saw it, he threw out more hidden weapons. Immediately, countless hidden weapons flew towards Jiang Ling. Jiang Ling took a look at Zhang Tian, ​​concentrated his body's internal force into his fist, and swung out with one punch, creating a huge fist energy formed by his internal force. With a bang, the hidden weapons in front of him were scattered away.

Just when Zhang Tian was amazed by Jiang Ling's internal strength, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind the hidden weapon, and the dark blue glove came with a strong wind, hitting his chest with a bang.With a click, the sound of ribs shattering resounded in his body.Zhang Tian was sent flying by the fist, and fell hard to the ground.

He stood up with difficulty, spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth.

The moment Lan Mo rushed over, Xing Chen shot at Lan Mo with two scimitars at the same time, Lan Mo quickly stopped to dodge, the scimitar quickly brushed past Lan Mo, and returned to Xing Chen's hand while spinning.

Xing Chen looked at Lan Mo, and Lan Mo also stared at Xing Chen, the two of them did not make a move, they just confronted each other like this, at this moment, Xing Chen saw Zhang Tian was sent flying, he immediately left the fight and flew towards Zhang Tian .

Seeing him coming, Zhang Tian immediately ran in his direction, and after a while, the two joined together.

Xingchen looked at Zhang Tian's injury and asked eagerly:

"Brother! Are you alright!"

"It's okay. Cough, cough, cough." Zhang Tian coughed a few times, and he could clearly feel that the ribs in his chest pierced the lung lobes, and it gradually became difficult to breathe.He looked at the stars and said:

"Xiao Xing, we can't beat him, I'll hold him back, you run away!"

"Brother! What are you talking about?! How could I run away without you!" Xing Chen said.

Zhang Tian looked at him and said, "Xiao Xing is obedient, if the fight continues like this, we will all die here."

"No, I don't want it." Xingchen roared.

"Little Xing, my lung lobe has been pierced by a rib, and it won't last long. Let's go, didn't we make an appointment, do we want to live?" Zhang Tian looked at Xing Chen and said slowly.

"No, I won't go, I want to go with my brother!" Xingchen shouted.

Jiang Ling listened to Xingchen's words and said:

"You, none of you can leave!"

Xing Chen heard Jiang Ling's words, looked at him with anger on his face, raised his scimitar and quickly attacked him, Jiang Ling saw this, immediately fought back, wrapped his fist with his internal force and brought a strong wind to hit Xing Chen, with a bang, the fist It hit the scimitar and sent the stars flying.

Jiang Ling immediately chased after him, and punched the star again, he was about to hit the star,

Zhang Tian suddenly rushed out from the side and pushed Xing Chen away.

With a bang, his fist hit Zhang Tian's body, his body flew out instantly, and hit the ancient tree with a bang, smashing the trunk into pieces.

"Pfft!" A big mouthful of blood spewed out from Zhang Tian's mouth. He lay on the ground, looked at the fast-charging stars in the distance, and opened his mouth lightly:

"Xiao Xing, live on"

Before he died, scenes of the past floated in his mind.

At that time, they were still beggars, alone and dependent on each other.

That year there was a severe drought and no crops were harvested, and everyone had to change their children to eat. In order to avoid the fate of being eaten, the two fled with their hungry and emaciated bodies all the way to the distant capital.

When the two were about to starve to death, a son outside the member appeared in front of them, threw the steamed buns beside the hungry wild dogs, and told them that if they wanted to eat, they could grab it by themselves.

For that steamed bun, he fought with the wild dog, and the wild dog gnawed on his body. Regardless of the pain, he bit the wild dog's neck, and finally, the wild dog died in his hands.

He was so injured that he wanted to pick up the steamed bun, but the son of the member kicked him away, snatched the steamed bun, threw it on the ground, and trampled it to pieces.

Looking at the steamed buns on the ground and the dying stars, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were blood red, and suddenly jumped up from the ground, like a wild beast, he bit off the neck of Yuanwai's son with one bite, and blood spurted from the neck Out, he dragged the corpse to the front of Xingchen, and the two greedily sucked the warm blood.

Seeing this, the surrounding crowd fled one after another. A group of officers and soldiers came towards them. Before they moved forward, there was a sound of brushing, and the heads of the officers and soldiers fell from their necks and rolled in front of them.Blood fell from the sky like rain, dyeing the ground crimson.

The adult came from the blood rain, looked at them and asked:

"Want to live?"

"Master Suzaku." Zhang Tian looked at Suzaku's phantom and gently closed his eyes.

Xingchen rushed over quickly, and when he got close, he only saw a corpse covered in blood.

"Brother!!!!" Xing Chen shouted in despair, fell to his knees with a plop, picked up Zhang Tian's body with horror in his eyes, and said incoherently:

"Brother, wake up, take me away, we don't fight anymore, we don't fight anymore, let's run away, leave the Suzaku, leave the Four Sacred Palace, escape to a place that no one knows. We want to live , let's live together!"

As he spoke, he was about to grab Zhang Tian's body and run away, but saw Jiang Ling and Lan Mo standing in front of him.Jiang Ling looked at him and said:

"He's dead, and you can't leave yet."

"Shut up, he's not dead, he's not dead." Xing Chen looked at Jiang Ling and shouted hysterically.He picked up the scimitar and rushed towards Jiang Ling and the other two, but Jiang Ling punched him to the ground.

Pfft, Xingchen spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at Jiang Ling and the two, and said fiercely:

"He's not dead! He's not dead, you lied to me, hahahaha." He looked at Zhang Tian, ​​grabbed his cold hand, and said softly:

"What's wrong with us, we just want to live."

As he spoke, he picked up the machete and stabbed it into his stomach.Blood spurted out from the knife edge immediately, staining his body red.He spat out blood, looked at Jiang Ling and said word by word: "If you want to know the secrets of the Four Sacred Palaces, come to the Palace of Kings of Hell and ask!"

As he spoke, he fell towards Zhang Tian's body.

Everything in front of them happened so suddenly, Jiang Ling and the two didn't expect it at all, and before they could stop it, Xing Chen committed suicide.

Jiang Ling and Lan Mo looked at the bodies of the two, remained silent for a long time, then turned and left the place.
