Xuanyuan Hill was not called this name when the earth was in chaos in ancient times. At that time, Xuanyuan Hill was called Qingqiu. Legend has it that Xuanyuan's mother lived by the Qingqiu. One night, the moon was high and the wind was blowing, and the Big Dipper was hidden. Everyone thought it was ominous, but late at night, stars fell from the sky and fell on Qingqiu. In an instant, fire broke out everywhere, the earth cracked and mountains collapsed, the stars and moon became dim, and the sky lost its color. That was the night Xuanyuan was born. The historical trajectory made people more convinced of the extraordinaryness of the Xuanyuan family, and later the place was renamed Xuanyuan Hill.
However, the legend about Xuanyuan Hill is just the beginning. Since the beginning of the Human Emperor era, almost all the ancient great powers, even the previous human emperors, have been very interested in this mysterious place. Their names are intertwined with each other and passed down to later generations. Some people say that they left their own orthodoxy there in a tacit understanding. The reason is unknown.
It is true that in history, it is not uncommon for visions to appear in Xuanyuan Hill. Not to mention the distant past, the old Yan Emperor wandered into Yunchuan when he was young, and he has a close relationship with the five tribes and the Holy Land today. The grievances and grievances between them are really hard to describe.
At that time, he had not yet developed his magical powers, so he suffered a horrific siege. He was forced into Xuanyuan Hill and disappeared from sight. Three years later, his virtual magical powers appeared in front of the world with unparalleled talents. He was like a god of death, unstoppable, and countless masters drank in hatred. After his death, the Battle of Shuangji Gorge made the old Yan Emperor famous in his youth. It is said that he obtained the orthodoxy of the ancient Holy Emperor of Heartflow in Xuanyuan Hill, and some people also said that he found the legacy of the dragon beside Xuanyuan clan. slough.
There are different opinions. The historical truth may have been lost with the death of the old Yan Emperor, but the only thing that is certain is that Xuanyuan Hill is mysterious and unpredictable, and there are various opportunities in it. Therefore, people from Yunchuan can often be seen entering it, wanting to explore the secrets, and there are many Luck. This is commonly known as "hitting the fate of immortality". Once you succeed, you will be different from the immortals.
Now Lu Yu's strength has reached its bottleneck. In the secular world, martial arts masters like Lu Yu are called Qi Practitioners. Now he is a ninth-grade master, and he can officially enter the world of monks in the next step. It should be noted that real monks have the ability to move mountains and reclaim seas. Dealing with Qi practitioners like Lu Yu is as easy as crushing an ant. In today's world, the four holy places are regarded as the immortal mansions of monks, hidden in the mountains and rivers, and legendary among the secular people. The royal courts of the five clans are scattered all over the world, and they also control the lifeline of a large number of monks, but they are not known to everyone, and only Cultivate direct descendants, so it is simply a luxury for Lu Yu to be cultivated and enter the ranks of monks. In Lu Yu's current situation, it is useless to stay in Liuyuan. The existence of Wu Cangming makes Lu Yu's vision broader and his ambitions higher.
Now that he had made his decision, Lu Yu made some preparations and planned to leave the next day. Although when saying goodbye to Yin Xue and Zi Yuegui, Yin Xue expressed strong opposition on the grounds that he was injured, but Lu Yu would not change what he decided once. In desperation, Yin Xue had to remind her again and again that when she was away from home, she should fight less and don't show off her strength.
As evening approached on the second day, I watched the sun set in the west, and the hills and rivers in the distance were faintly visible.
"We're finally here. Fortunately, we have the Split Wind Chihao presented by Biji, otherwise we might have to wait two or three days to arrive." Lu Yu sighed with the Split Wind Chihao under his crotch, looking at the endless Xuanyuan Hills not far away.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of thousands of miles, Lu Yu had reached the border of Xuanyuan Hill in only half a day's journey. Lu Yu was about to stop and rest for a while to reorganize and enter Xuanyuan Hill. He saw a teahouse not far ahead and passed by. Although wild beasts often appear in Xuanyuan Hill, they usually move in specific areas. Xuanyuan Hill is vast. Endless, hills and mountains are connected together, and it is not easy to reach them.
Although Xuanyuan Hill is quite famous in Yunchuan, there are not many passers-by from the south to the north. After all, all the related things are legends, and not everyone will go to the wilderness for those illusory legends.
At this time, besides Lu Yu, there was only one other person in the tea house, an old man, a big man, and a little girl about the same age as him. The little girl's bright eyes were like a moon palace in the cold moon, touching people's hearts, and her skin was as white as winter. snow. The old man and the big man were both very tall and strong, and there was nothing special about them. Like a group of ordinary people
"Uncle Fan, look, the boy over there is about the same age as me, and he came out alone. If he had told me to come alone, there would be no problem." The little girl saw Lu Yu and suddenly said coquettishly to the big man next to her.
"Xian'er, stop making trouble. We're not out to play this time. Don't ask you to come alone. If you hadn't been clamoring to follow me, I wouldn't have taken you with you. You're not satisfied." Before the big man could speak, someone on the side said The old man said in a deep voice.
The little girl was annoyed, lowered her head, hummed softly, and muttered: "Grandpa Shui knows how to kill others."
The big man and the old man looked at each other and smiled. The little girl was very favored at home and was regarded as the apple of his eye. The old man in front of him loved her very much, otherwise he would not have brought her out this time. It¡¯s just that it¡¯s Xuan right nowZhiqiu, this time she came out not for fun, something went wrong, and the clan is hard to explain, so she can't be allowed to lose her temper at this time.
Lu Yu passed by without saying much. He just bought some dry food and water from the store, asked about the general situation here, took less rest, and turned around to hit the road.
After walking for about three or four hours, it was getting late, and the stars in the sky looked deep and charming against the vast Xuanyuan Hills. Lu Yu was sitting by the bonfire, adding firewood, holding a dark thing in his hand, and placed it. It's as if the food is burnt.
"about there."
Lu Yu looked at the black object in his hand, stood up, crushed the object into powder and sprinkled it around the bonfire. This is loose animal ink. It is said to be baked from the excrement of dragons and bears. It is suitable for use in the wilderness. Generally, small animals and mosquitoes will not dare to approach it if they smell the smell.
It is always better to be cautious when going out. As usual, Lu Yu just sits quietly and regulates his breathing. At his level of cultivation, sitting quietly and regulating his breathing can make up for sleep, and the effect is better.
There was no words for a while, until late at night, the extraordinarily cold night style in the wilderness was as painful as a knife, but Lu Yu remained unmoved. The bonfire had long been extinguished, but the severe cold could not bring him back to this dark night. , the harder the conditions, the more potential people can be stimulated. This is Lu Yu's creed.
¡°Accepting the baptism of nature can bring your heart closer to the great road.¡±
I don¡¯t know who said this, but it must have been an ancient power, so there are people like ascetics in Yunchuan, and Lu Yu seems to agree with this.
"Whoops"
In the dark night, murderous intent loomed, the sound of breaking through the air was faintly heard, the cold wind suddenly dispersed, and under the moonlight, a black line struck towards Lu Yu's door, right in front of him.
Suddenly, Lu Yu raised his eyes and shouted loudly. The energy in his body immediately rebounded, and the black shadow bounced back like a golden stone. When Lu Yu was attacked, he suddenly sensed that his true energy surged into his palms, and he slapped the ground with his backhand. Suddenly, the sand and rocks jumped, and the soil leaves flew.
"boom"
There was only a muffled sound, and the ground suddenly exploded not far away, with mud splashing and grass blades flying. Under the moonlight, a small beast jumped out, and a black line danced in front of it.
Lu Yu had such sharp eyesight that he could see through the moonlight that this was an earth-devouring lizard. This kind of beast lived underground all year round, feeding on carrion and leaves in the soil. Occasionally, the creatures on the ground that suddenly pounced from the soil could often be killed. Received miraculous results. The most troublesome thing about this beast is his tongue.
The tongue of the earth-devouring lizard can be tens of inches long. It is made of soft silk but as tough as a bow string. When swung around, it can urge gold and break jade. It was hard to guard against. Lu Yu knew that the one who had just attacked him was the tongue of the earth-devouring lizard.
This kind of savage beast is extremely cunning. The attack just now failed, and he wanted to run away immediately, but Lu Yu was not willing to let him go, so he sensed it and slapped him with both palms, shaking him out of the ground.
"If you want to eat me, I have to see if you have such a big appetite."
Seeing that the situation was not good, the Earth-devouring Lizard turned around and wanted to retreat, its long tongue flying. Suddenly, dust and dirt flew up on the ground, and it was about to burrow into the ground.
"Want to run?" When Lu Yu saw this, his whole body was shocked. Sand and stones stood up on the ground and swam around him. He held up his sleeves for a moment, and a few stones seemed to fall out of the sky, covering the earth-devouring lizard.
"Pfft"
The earth-devouring lizard was the first to be hit, so how could it stop Lu Yu's methods? The stone sank into the earth-devouring lizard's body like a piece of stone, cutting off its vitality. In an instant, blood flew everywhere, and all that could be seen was the black shadow standing upright under the moonlight. , and fell down.
Lu Yu didn't come forward, he just refilled the firewood and lit the bonfire. It was windy and cold at night, and it was difficult to light the fire. After several attempts, it still didn't work. Lu Yu opened the package, took out a small bottle, opened the lid, and felt a pungent smell. The smell coming from the ground is unbearable. This is fire vulture oil. There is a kind of bird in the Southern Wilderness called the fire vulture. It lives next to the volcano all year round and feeds on volcanic ash. Its body is extremely heat-resistant. This oil is what we kill for The fat on this bird is refined and added to firewood. The fire is not extinguished easily, but the water cannot be extinguished.
Sure enough, Lu Yu dropped two drops and lit the firewood, and the flames arose, burning brightly and steaming. In this dry night, a strange color lit up.
After lighting the bonfire, Lu Yu stood up and walked towards the trophy. Although the earth-eating lizard is a common beast, it is not easy to catch. The reason is very simple. First, this beast lives underground all year round and cannot easily come out of the ground. , the Earth-eating Lizard is extremely cunning. Even if it crawls out of the ground, it will run away as soon as it senses any disturbance.
However, the Earth-Eating Lizard has two treasures. One is its tongue. The Earth-Eating Lizard's tongue can be tens of inches long. It is as soft as silk and as tough as a bow string. When swung around, it can urge gold and break jade. The tongue of the earth-eating lizard is made ofExcellent materials for bows and whips, especially nobles who are very willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.
Another treasure is the salivary glands of the earth-eating lizard. The saliva secreted by the earth-eating lizard's salivary glands is a good medicine for treating trauma. Even for a body like Lu Yu, the effect can be seen with the naked eye after being applied on it. Therefore, General drug stores love this rare product very much, and of course the price will definitely satisfy you.
Lu Yu grew up in poverty, so naturally he would not mind having a lot of money, let alone this kind of money that comes to his door. He immediately took out his dagger and began to dispose of the earth-devouring lizard's body.
Lu Yu took out the salivary glands and tongue of the earth-devouring lizard, put them in bottles and oil paper, and put them into the clothes bag. Yin Xue helped sew the bag. It was attached to the underwear and could store valuables.
After disposing of the body, Lu Yu leaned against the campfire to rest. Looking out of the corner of his eye, the body of the earth-devouring lizard had a faintly flashing five-color halo, which was blurry and scattered, making people obsessed.
Lu Yu was very surprised. He stepped forward to look around and saw a round particle the size of a fingernail in the stomach pouch of the earth-devouring lizard. It was made of a special material, like gold or jade, and the five colors shone in it, giving off a moving luster.
"This is five-color soil?" Lu Yu murmured with some uncertainty, and the horrified light in his eyes suddenly grew.
