    Before I knew it, morning had quietly arrived.  ¡° Half asleep and half awake, Li Mu had many inexplicable nightmares and spent the most difficult night in his life.  The early morning sunshine squeezed in through the cracks in the window playfully, and its faint halo reflected the flying dust, forming the most beautiful picture, which made Li Mu's bad mood slightly better.  After two days of raging cold waves, I may have felt a little tired and had to calm down a little, letting the sun hiding in the clouds breathe a sigh of relief and shine its light on the land of Lianshan Town again.  Although the weather is still cold, at least it is not as wet as the previous two days, making people just want to shiver.  Li Mu rubbed his panda eyes, reluctantly got up from the bed, opened the window, stretched his aching back in the sunshine, and then silently started to pack his luggage.  In fact, there was nothing to pack, just a few changes of clothes and dozens of copper coins saved over the past few months. They were originally intended to buy gifts for my parents and sister, but now I can only take them back directly.  Of course, the most important thing is the wooden sign, which was carefully hidden in Li Muchen's arms.  After the three of them finished breakfast, the third uncle took the dry food prepared for Li Mu and said, "Ah Mu, be careful on the road. You must walk through the Lianyun Valley Road before dark, otherwise there will be danger after dark.  "Yes, third uncle, I understand. You should go back first. It's a bit windy outside." Li Mu forced a smile, then turned to his cousin and said, "Second brother, please take care of me."  "Li Qing nodded, but didn't know what to say, and the three of them were silent for a while.  The sun gradually climbed up the mountain, and there were more and more pedestrians on the street. The third uncle frowned, maybe because he felt that the atmosphere was a little sad. It was unlucky for Li Mu to go out like that, so he touched his beard and said with a smile: "Okay, okay.  , you are just going home, it¡¯s not like you won¡¯t come back if you leave, go quickly, don¡¯t delay the journey.¡± Li Mu nodded, took another look at the Storytelling Library next door, and found that it was quiet inside.  The mouse in Xilou's Old Dream hasn't come out of his hole yet. I originally wanted to go over and say goodbye to him, but I can only give up now.  "Then I'm leaving. Third uncle and second brother, you should take care of yourself." Li Mu shook his head, tried to cheer up, and walked forward along North Street.  After walking a certain distance, Li Mu turned around and looked at the two people at the door of the teahouse. He waved vigorously, gradually blending into the sparse crowds in the early morning, and disappeared at the exit of the town.  "A Mu, this kid, is smart and obedient. Although he always likes to dream of becoming a hero and being disciplined by the old man, the old man is really reluctant to leave." After watching Li Mu's back disappear, the third uncle wiped his eyes and said, "No.  I don¡¯t know when I can come back to see this old man, but I always feel like I¡¯ll never see him again once he leaves.¡± Looking at the sad look on his third uncle¡¯s face, Li Qing could only comfort him: ¡°I¡¯ll be back soon, wait.  The second uncle is in good health and will definitely come back. Amu has been smart since he was a child. It would be a waste to stay in our small village. " "Oh, I hope. It seems that he is really old and thinks too much.  "The third uncle shook his head, as if to shake off the sadness in his heart, turned around and entered the door.  Li Qing was about to follow his third uncle in, but he seemed to suddenly remember something, with a look of annoyance on his face, and whispered in a low voice: "Oops, I forgot to tell A Mu when I was in a hurry, be careful when walking along the Lianyun Valley Road.  , I don¡¯t know who was unscrupulous, but he built a huge tree to block the road. I thought someone was robbing him.¡± Then I glanced at the end of North Street, and Li Mu was no longer there.  "It should be fine, right?" Li Qing thought helplessly. ?¡­ ?Although the sun has come out, the rugged mountain road is still a bit muddy and not easy to walk on.  ¡°I don¡¯t know if it was because the road was difficult to walk, or because he had become lazy after staying in Lianshan Town for more than half a year, or because he hadn¡¯t slept well for several days, but Li Mu felt that he was about to expire.  He no longer had the energy he had when he came out of the town. He was lying on a huge rock with his tongue outstretched like a puppy, gasping for air.  Li Mu still remembers that when he left the mountain village and came to Lianshan Town alone six months ago, it only took him more than half a day to walk the entire Lianyun Mountain Road.  Of course, the mountain trail was very dry at that time, and it was not as muddy and difficult to walk on as it is now.  "I can't, I can't, why can't I walk? Is this young master getting lazy, or is it because the mountain road has become longer?" Li Mu murmured in a low voice while wandering. In the end, he probably still had his conscience in his heart.?I am still reluctantly sure that it must be the reason why I have become lazy.  Li Mu looked at the sun that was rising higher and higher, took out a water bag from his back and drank some water, and decided to continue on his way, otherwise he would not be able to walk out of this steep mountain road when the sun went down, and there would be no place to spend the night.  When he was standing up straight, Li Mu suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice, which came with the sound of wind on the cliff, but accompanied by the sound of pine waves, he could not quite hear the specific content.  Li Mu frowned and thought for a moment, thinking it was the voice of the old man who gave him the wooden sign. However, after turning his ears and listening for a while, he found that there was only the sound of wind and pine waves.  "I guess I heard wrong. The old man has been away for a day or two. Even if he climbs, he has almost climbed the mountain trail, right?" Li Mu made a climbing motion, and was a little unsure whether what he said was right.  After thinking for a moment, he was about to lean against the edge of the cliff to see if he could continue to hear the writing sound, but he suddenly staggered. Fortunately, he had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he immediately grabbed an old pine tree on the cliff.  Branches, barely able to stand still.  Li Mu looked at the unfathomable cliff with billowing clouds and mist below with a pale face. A cold air rushed straight from the soles of his feet to his forehead. After feeling dizzy in his head, he suddenly felt that he had better not care about these things, even if someone shouted on the mountain road ahead.  What, it doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with me, right?  Then Li Mu grabbed the branches tightly and slowly returned to the center of the mountain road. After resting for a while, he finally regained some energy and continued walking along the mountain road. As he walked, he muttered: "Book  It is said that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, so I stay away from the cliff, which can be regarded as following the ancient precepts." Although calling himself a "gentleman" is inevitably suspected of putting gold on his face, Li Mu soon discovered that,  There is nothing wrong with this kind of gilding, but the idea of ??"not standing behind a dangerous wall" is wrong.  If he could stand under the "dangerous wall" for a while longer, he might not be involved in a dangerous fight.  ¡­ ¡­ Li Mu wandered around a corner of the mountain, and his eyes suddenly opened up.  The fierce mountain wind blew from the cliff, making Li Mu's clothes rustle.  The vermilion hills in the distance shimmered in the sunlight, as if the mountains were covered with red colored glaze.  A figure suddenly came into Li Mu's eyes. At this time, his back was turned to Li Mu, and he was slowly walking forward along the mountain road.  Judging from the familiar figure and clothing, it was the old man who gave Li Mu the wooden sign in the teahouse a few days ago.  Due to the angle, Li Mu only saw the old man's silhouette, but did not see the giant tree in front of the old man, nor did he feel the surging momentum on the old man's body, nor did he see Mo Hanshan with a solemn look on the opposite side of the giant tree.  Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little happy, because when he was in the teahouse that day, he felt that the old man seemed to like him very much, and his demeanor and tone when he spoke were very similar to his third uncle.  "According to Mr. Xilou, many masters personally select their apprentices. Could it be that this old man is also a super master and thinks that this young master has extraordinary qualifications, so he is waiting on the mountain road to accept me as his disciple?" Li Mu couldn't help but think narcissistically.  With.  Although the sacred status of Xilou Old Dream in Li Mu's heart has been shaken after the Wang Da Shen Xian incident, at least so far, no one has been able to replace it.  As for why the old man did not accept a disciple directly a few days ago, but instead waited for him on the mountain road, Li Mu, who was already a little enthusiastic, insisted that the other party must be testing the fate of both parties.  Of course, this saying that "peerless masters value fate the most" also comes from Xilou's old dream. Only God knows how much of it is reliable.  "Extraordinary qualifications. This young master is absolutely talented. He is a martial arts genius that is rare in a century no, a rare one in a thousand years." Li Mu clenched his fists excitedly and strengthened his confidence.  The old man moved very slowly, as if he was waiting for something.  In Li Mu's opinion, he should be waiting for him, so after rolling his eyes a few times, Young Master Li told himself with great certainty: "As for fate, is there any need to talk about it? This young master and the one in front of me  The old man must have a good fate, otherwise how could he meet him again? Maybe the wild boar that hit dad was arranged by God. " After doing sufficient psychological mobilization, Li  The eldest young master walked forward out of the corner of the mountain, put on what he thought was the most unfavorable movement of Shu Lingfeng, and shouted loudly: "Old man, why are you here?" As for why you didn't ask the other party directly if you were here specifically.  He is waiting to accept him as his apprentice. Young Master Li has little experience in the world and is not thick-skinned enough, so he still has some words that he cannot express.?? At this time, the old man suddenly changed his claws into fists, and seemed to be preparing to leap into the air. However, after hearing Li Mu's shout, he did not turn around with a smile as Li Mu imagined, but instead trembled unnoticeably.  , as if hearing Li Mu's joyful voice was a terrifying and unusual thing.  A sharp whistle, accompanied by Li Mu's shout, appeared on the mountain road, and two rays of cold light appeared on the left side of Ye Qi's head. Then there was a loud bang, the whole mountain road trembled slightly, and a huge  The log suddenly appeared on the mountain road, and quickly rolled towards the old man along the slightly inclined mountain road.  Wherever the giant tree rolls, mud splashes and gravel flies, and the momentum is like overwhelming mountains and seas.  The old man moved his body, as if he wanted to leap up, but in the end he stopped for some unknown reason and was about to retreat. His clenched fists turned into claw shapes, and his arms slightly formed an arc, like  It's about hugging the giant rolling tree.  Li Mu stood there blankly, looking at the scene that suddenly became extremely dangerous. No matter how stupid or narcissistic he was, he understood that the old man was definitely not waiting for him, let alone performing martial arts for him.  On the contrary, it was me who seemed to have accidentally interfered with the old man, making him passive.  "Be careful" Li Mu finally came to his senses and shouted involuntarily.  In the flash of lightning, Li Mu suddenly understood that the old man's original movement was probably to leap up and avoid being crushed by the giant tree.  But the consequence of doing this is that the giant tree will roll towards you without any hindrance. With your own skills, there will be no other better ending than turning into a meat pie.  So the old man stopped to block the giant tree, actually to save his own life.  The roaring sound in the valley surged back and forth, like a boulder penetrating a calm lake. The ripples came one after another, impacting Li Mu's tense nerves.  After figuring out the relationship, Li Mu's face turned pale in an instant. With flashes of thought in his mind, he hesitantly asked himself: "What should I do? Do you want to rush up to help?" "You can't be stupid. What can I do if I go up? Apart from helping the elderly,  Adding chaos and risking one's own life, what else can it do?" This idea was immediately dismissed, after all, this was a helpless fact.  "Then just leave here. It's none of my business in the first place." The roar of the giant tree became louder and louder, and Li Mu's heartbeat became faster and faster. Unknowingly, Li Mu took a few steps back, but suddenly  He stopped, and the conflict in his heart became even worse, "But if I run away, wouldn't I be just like those villains who run away from battle?" Seeing that the giant tree was about to hit the old man, the huge air wave made the old man's clothes rustle.  Li Mu was heartbroken and his mind went blank. After all, he was just a boy from a mountain village who had never seen the world, and he was only fifteen or sixteen years old.  Although he heard about books every day in Lianshan Town and occasionally dreamed of becoming a hero, the truly bloody and cruel Jianghu vendetta was still too far away from him.  "No, no, I'm innocent. I just want to go home" Li Mu was so frightened that his whole body trembled, even his lips turned dark, and he was completely at a loss in his heart. "Although the old man seems to be doing it for me.  "Dang Zhai, but if he hadn't made enemies, how could I have fallen into such a dangerous situation? Isn't it right for him to do this?" Thinking of this, Li Mu took another step back, and there were only a few corners left when he came.  If you take a few steps, you just need to turn around the corner of the mountain and hide on the edge. You don't have to worry anymore.  At this time, the giant tree had rolled in front of the old man. The right end of the giant tree that was originally rolling sideways suddenly stopped for some reason, as if it was pulled by something.  However, due to inertia, the left end of the giant tree was like a huge hour hand, crossing half an arc, bringing up a violent wave of air, roaring and hitting the old man's side.  Li Mu's heart seemed to be lifted up by something. Although he didn't understand why one end of the giant tree stopped, he knew that if the old man couldn't avoid this blow, being thrown off the cliff would be the only outcome.  He suddenly felt that if he left, he would not be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.  "Human power is generally divided into two types, one is the power of the body, and the other is the power of the mind." Li Mu murmured to himself, seeming to be recalling something, "The power of the body is only the last part, the power of the heart is  Strength is the foundation. " This was still said by the unreliable Xilou Jiumeng. He just mentioned it casually at the time, but Li Mu remembered it clearly because he thought it made sense.  "The power of the body is limited, but the power of the mind is infinite." The panic on Li Mu's face gradually faded, as if he had found support, "Without the power of the body, you can still become a brave and kind person.  ,butWithout the power of the soul, even if you can destroy the world, you will still be a coward.  " Thinking of this, Li Mu suddenly clenched his fists and his face became a little ferocious, as if he was fighting someone: "Because without the power of the soul, even if you kill everyone in the world, it will only be because of fear and emptiness.  "After saying this, Li Mu breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead with trembling, stood up straight again, tried to calm himself down, and stopped moving against the ridge. "Father's injury  Li Mu suddenly smiled, "Father, mother, and sister will definitely understand me and support me. They definitely don't want their relative to be a weak person."  "Above the cliff, the cold wind howled, and in the valley, there was a loud roar. "In the mountain road where a life and death duel was going on, a young man smiled shiveringly
