Chapter 39 The Road is Narrow, Debts Are Eliminated
Chapter 39 The Road is Narrow, Debts Are Eliminated
To outsiders, this battle may not be heroic or exciting enough.
Mortals can only see.
The dragon, which was obviously extremely ferocious, became a sitting duck and was wantonly ravaged by the swordsman.
Um...
It can't be said to be ravaged.
The dragon's counterattack was still very terrifying.
But it always goes astray.
Moreover, as the battle progressed, it seemed that the dragon didn't have much spiritual energy left.
Inside the pagoda, everyone was very excited.
Finally saved.
He murmured, "May God bless you, thank you for your blessing."
A middle-aged man in brocade clothes burst into tears. After learning that the dragon was dead, he admired the dragon-slaying swordsman to the extreme. He proposed on the spot that after the flood receded, he would fund the construction of a statue for the immortal.
The people echoed one after another.
However, they all said that they could not remember the swordsman's appearance at all.
Just like some dreams, after waking up, you can’t remember the content of the dream at all.
Li Changxiao came to the body of the dragon.
The evil dragon's head fell to the ground, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
I can't help but sigh that he is worthy of being a genius at the great star level.
Desperately powerful.
If it weren't for the depletion of spiritual energy, I'm afraid I would never be qualified to fight with a genius of this level in my entire life.
"Another star has fallen."
Li Changxiao looked up at the sky.
The brilliance of a star gradually dims.
Li Changxiao crossed a higher realm and challenged the dragon alone, which was actually a lot of trickery.
The most important point.
That's because the dragon had no spiritual energy supply, and as the fight went on, many of its powerful moves could no longer be used.
And Li Changxiao has a dream space.
It can replenish spiritual energy continuously.
In addition, he had just eaten a dream fruit, and the spiritual energy in his body was so full that it was about to overflow.
This is a long time.
Many factors come into play.
The river was filled with a strong smell of blood, and Li Changxiao had to drink a few sips of strong liquor to cover up the smell.
The dragon died.
The flood diversion channels dug by tens of thousands of people at the cost of their lives worked.
The flood water is receding at a slow pace.
"Dragon blood, dragon blood..."
"In the heyday of prosperity, a fortune was worth a fortune, but nowadays... it's too fishy to even soak in wine."
Li Changxiao poured the rest of his drunkenness and dreams into the river, his clothes fluttering in the wind.
……
"Master...are we really worthy of all the incense if we do this?"
The top of a mountain.
Si Nian murmured.
The breeze blew through her sleeves, mixed with an lingering chill.
She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, feeling a little chilly.
"Disciple, do you remember what I said to you when we first started?" Mu Qin's expression was calm, without any emotional fluctuations. "There is gain and loss. The road is very narrow and cannot hold too many things."
"Yes." Si Nian looked complicated, "But where is the avenue?"
Her eyes showed a confusion she had never seen before.
She had wanted to ask this question three hundred years ago.
"The Great Way..." Mu Qin paused, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally remained silent.
"It was he who took action." Si Nian said suddenly.
Mu Qin nodded indifferently, knowing who Si Nian was referring to.
"Master, you are wrong." Si Nian said with a smile.
"Yes." Mu Qin admitted generously, "I did underestimate him."
"He is no worse than any other genius. With his spiritual roots, mortal body, and comprehension, he has come this far and even killed the evil dragon above his level..."
"Master...I was indeed wrong at the beginning."
After receiving the master's recognition, Si Nian's eyes brightened and he added, "But he is still so stupid."
After saying this, he seemed to recall the days when he first joined the Panlong Sect.
When the two first met, it was like the scene in a novel where a hero saves a beauty.
At that time, Si Nian felt that this senior brother who had average talent, average comprehension, and was not favored by the elders was really handsome.
Indescribably handsome.
Later, she met Mu Qin and hurriedly became his disciple. The master told her that in the wider world of cultivation, there were countless people with better talents and better character than Li Changxiaoshuai!
However, none of them are worthy of you, because you are my disciple, Mu Qin...
Mu Qin also said that it would be difficult for Li Changxiao to leave Panlong Sect in his lifetime, and the reason you like him is just because you are young and ignorant and have too little experience.
When you have seen all the flowers and look back, then you will know whether you like them or not.
after that……
Si Nian was fooled away. No, it wasn't really fooled. At that time, Si Nian also yearned for a broader world and wanted to pursue the great path. He was unwilling to be trapped by feelings.
Meet again now.
Still so handsome.
She thought to herself that it wasn't because she was too ignorant, but because she really liked him. However, after seeing hundreds of flowers, the one she loved most had already been picked.
……
Longcheng has a new prefect.
Transferred from the neighboring Qingcheng, he took drastic measures as soon as he arrived, leading the survivors to clean up the streets, plan the fields, and build houses.
Dragon City Market.
Tens of thousands of corpses were lined up, waiting to be claimed.
The officials transferred from Qingcheng thought it was too troublesome and suggested burying them all together, otherwise they would start to stink in a few days.
If there is a major disaster or epidemic, more people will die.
It took only a few minutes for the words to come out of his mouth.
A large group of people went to the government angrily.
The incident was not settled until the new city lord went door to door to apologize.
A woman wrapped in coarse linen came to claim the body.
She was the woman who had once confided in Li Changxiao.
The flood was raging.
The brothel collapsed, the old maid was washed away, the debt did not have to be repaid, and her husband was dead.
The woman dragged the corpse out of the city and never appeared in Longcheng again.
Months passed.
The people of Longcheng are coming out of their grief.
Those who farm farm, and those who do business do business.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to pay taxes this year.
The dynasty suffered many disasters.
There was also a locust plague in the northwest, and there was a food shortage.
Taxes have gone up again.
This day.
With the help of neighbors, Long Laixiang Restaurant reopened.
The proprietress took out her remaining silver and bought two long firecrackers.
Place it at the door of the store and light it with incense, and suddenly the streets will be filled with crackling sounds.
Children love to be in a lively atmosphere, and they immediately gathered around.
The neighbors give me face.
As soon as Long Lai Xiang Canteen opened, it became extremely lively. Business was booming every day and the restaurant was so busy that it was almost impossible to cope with the situation.
Just when the proprietress was worried that she was too busy to handle sweeping, mopping, cooking and cooking by herself.
A swordsman in white slowly walked into the store, skillfully picked up the dishes and took them to the back to wash.
The two looked at each other, smiled knowingly at the same time, said nothing, and lowered their heads to continue working on the work at hand.
The new waiter was nimble, had a faint smile on his face, and a long sword hanging from his waist, looking like a wanderer.
Whenever customers asked where they hired such a handsome waiter, the proprietress would always curl her lips and tell them that he was just a dine-and-dine scoundrel who would leave after paying off his debt.
Three days later.
Li Changxiao drew the last line in his room, no more, no less, exactly thirty lines.
He took a sip of the strong liquor.
While the night is thick.
Push door.
Leave.
One man and one sword, walking in the not-so-strong snowstorm.
the next day.
Long Lai Xiang, which had always been doing a booming business, suddenly closed for one day.
