There was thunder outside and the rain was still falling.
The strong wind blew through the gaps in the house and entered the house, bringing a whining sound.
There are ghosts and gods who have been watching over the fire, adding a few handfuls of firewood from time to time. It is still burning vigorously, but the flame is blown by the wind and changes directions from time to time.
If ordinary people stayed in a deserted village at night and encountered such a thunderstorm scene, they would probably be frightened to death.
But everyone in the room is not a mortal.
Lu Li was lying on the bed, taking a nap. Shen Yan and the other ghosts and gods either closed their eyes and rested their minds, or just looked at the firelight and remained silent.
Nothing outside the house seemed to be able to sway them.
I don¡¯t know how long it¡¯s been like this.
The silent atmosphere continued until Lu Li suddenly opened his eyes.
Shen Yan had been watching the flames change directions, but the corner of his eyes had been fixed on Lu Li. At this moment, he realized that he was no longer asleep, and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Lu, what's wrong?"
Lu Li did not answer immediately. He looked at the door directly opposite, as if his eyes were looking behind the door, outside the courtyard, and outside the village.
After a while he said.
"Someone is here. He is outside the village now and is coming into the village."
Shen Yan frowned: "Is there anyone?"
Lu Li nodded: "Yes, he is alone, but judging from the aura he sensed, he should be a mortal. But after practicing some martial arts, he is considered very good among mortals."
"A mortal warrior?"
Shen Yan said thoughtfully: "This is possible."
¡°At nights like this, if you dare to walk alone in the wilderness, you probably have something to rely on.
And for a mortal.
His own martial arts is his greatest reliance.
"But in a place like Yan State, even a mortal warrior dares to travel alone late at night, which is interesting"
Suddenly, Lu Li became interested in the warrior coming outside.
Outside the village.
Heavy raindrops fell from the sky, thunder rumbled, the wind howled, and the trees swayed under the pressure. From time to time, a flash of lightning lit up, stretching the shadows of these trees to eerie lengths.
A figure walked among the weeds with steady steps, as if nothing terrible around him could shake his determination.
"Village?"
Reaching the entrance of the village, this figure looked at the abandoned village in front of him and stopped.
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning fell, directly igniting a giant tree in the distance, but it was quickly extinguished by rain.
With the illumination of the electric light, the face of this figure can finally be seen clearly.
This is a man with a resolute appearance and a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows. He is about thirty years old. He is wearing a strong cotton robe with a sword wrapped around his back. He is dressed in a standard swordsman style.
¡°It¡¯s too windy and rainy, let¡¯s go in and take shelter for the night.¡±
Feeling the wetness on his body, the swordsman reached out to wipe the rain off his head and stepped into the village.
Not long after walking, he saw the fire in the courtyard in front of him in the dim rainy night.
"someone here?"
The swordsman frowned, but then relaxed again.
Demons don¡¯t need to light fires to keep warm.
There is fire, which proves that someone is lighting a fire to keep warm.
As long as he is a human being.
After hesitating for a moment, maybe it was the coldness of his body that made him yearn for the warmth of the flames, he still walked into the courtyard.
"Friends inside, it's raining heavily late at night. I'm a pedestrian on the road. I wonder if you can let me go inside to keep warm and shelter from the rain."
The swordsman shouted into the house, thought for a moment, and then added: "I am a swordsman, not a monster."
His shouts carried into the house.
"Swordsman? Not a demon?"
Lu Li felt more and more interesting as he listened to the shouts of the swordsman outside the door.
This land of Yan is really in chaos, so chaotic that if a mortal wants to take shelter from the rain, he has to prove that he is a human being and not a monster.
The swordsman waited outside the door for a while.
I didn¡¯t wait for a response from the people in the room, so I couldn¡¯t help but feel a little disappointed.
"I think so. In the wilderness, if someone suddenly comes and asks to borrow a fire to take shelter from the rain, no one will agree."
Shaking his head, the swordsman prepared to leave. The deserted village was big anyway, so it would be best to spend some time finding a broken house and regenerate some fire.
There is no need to insist on being here.
"Friends outsidePlease come in. It's raining heavily on a cold night. If you stay wet for too long, you'll easily catch wind and cold. It's not good to get sick in this wilderness. "
The swordsman had just turned around and before he even took a step, a clear voice came from inside the room.
¡°Then thank you very much, Master.¡±
Hearing the invitation, the swordsman looked happy and quickly stepped forward to open the door and enter the house.
When he saw the situation inside the house clearly, the swordsman couldn't help but be shocked.
"so many people?"
Looking at the ghosts and gods dressed as mortals, especially when he noticed that these ghosts and gods clearly did not have the aura of ordinary people, the swordsman instantly became vigilant.
If it weren¡¯t for his rationality, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to help but draw his sword.
"Brother, don't be nervous."
Lu Li saw the swordsman's mentality and couldn't help but smile and said, "We are humans, not monsters."
With the same words, he sent back the swordsman in front of him again.
Hearing Lu Li's teasing, the swordsman carefully looked at the people around him again, but he didn't feel any evil aura. On the contrary, the young man speaking in front of me was very popular, and there was no doubt that he was indeed a human being, so I couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
"I, Xia Hou Qingyi, have met this gentleman."
The swordsman looked at Lu Li and saw that he didn't look like a martial artist, but more like a scholar, so he called him sir and handed him over.
"I'm Lu Li, these are my followers."
Lu Li smiled and pointed to the Yinsi ghost next to him to introduce him.
"Mr. Lu."
Xiahou Qingyi bowed his hand again.
Lu Li nodded lightly, and then asked curiously: "Brother Xiahou is alone and traveling late at night, isn't he afraid of monsters?"
Lu Li has a deep understanding of how chaotic Yan Land is, after seeing how powerful and rampant the demons under Black Mountain are during the ancient pass.
In such a dangerous place, for a mortal to dare to be alone, even a warrior, seems a bit too unique.
Hear this.
Xiahou Qingyi couldn't help but straighten his back, subconsciously touched the wrapped sword, and said proudly: "With the sword in my hand, even monsters can be killed with one sword."
He said this with full confidence and was not talking nonsense.
Lu Li couldn't help but look at him intently, and then he realized that Xia Hou Qingyi had a special aura about him.
This aura is very familiar to Luli.
It is the sword energy that will be produced after practicing swordsmanship to a certain level.
The Xiahou Qingyi in front of him turned out not to be an ordinary mortal warrior, but had already introduced spiritual energy into his body and half-stepped into the door of cultivation.
"With such a level of cultivation, it is not impossible to defeat a demon that only condenses one's energy when encountering it."
Lu Li nodded secretly in his heart. This Xiahou Qingyi was the most powerful martial arts practitioner among mortals since he came to this world. He couldn't help but take a high look and said with approval: "With Brother Xiahou's strength, he is indeed not afraid of ordinary monsters."
With a mortal body, it is indeed worthy of admiration to be able to achieve this level.
