Volume Four, Three Counties in the South Chapter 455 Abandoning Confucianism and Cultivating Martial Arts
"Then Master Jiu, be careful."
Little Fatty Zhou Zheng said.
The border is not peaceful at the moment. Nanyun County is now divided into two, with the Yao clan occupying one part and Pei Yunzhang occupying another part.
But Lu Jiuzhang didn't understand. With Pei Yunzhang's strength, he could easily deal with those monsters, so why should he leave some passage for the monsters?
"Don't worry, I'll go there lightly. I'll go back quickly."
Lu Jiuzhang patted Zhou Zheng on the shoulder.
That night, Lu Jiuzhang packed the demon weapons and some treasures in the warehouse into twenty storage rings, took Heizi, and crossed to the border.
After leaving Shuizhou County, the two of them did not use their magical powers, fearing that the strong man would discover the fluctuations in spiritual energy.
Take advantage of the darkness and fly close to the ground.
After crossing Jiangshui County City, we headed forward.
After a night, when it was almost dawn, Lu Jiuzhang and Heizi came to an old castle.
When the trial ground existed before, it provided a place for warriors to rest and provide supplies.
Later, a series of changes occurred. The warriors in the trial field were taken out by Lu Jiuzhang, and the castle was abandoned.
After more than a year of exposure to wind and rain, with no one maintaining it, the entire castle looked a little desolate.
The castle is full of garbage and empty.
It was densely covered with cobwebs and extremely quiet.
One person and one monster walked on the street, and finally found a sheltered place to rest for a while.
"Things are different and people are different, Lord Jiu!"
The child sighed with emotion, "At that time, we first entered the castle, went to the trial field to kill monsters, and were finally forced into the monster realm, and then started the battle between heaven and earth. I didn't expect that more than a year has passed!"
"you do not say!"
Lu Jiuzhang also sighed with emotion, "Things have changed. There used to be tens of thousands of warriors stationed here. Third Senior Sister Zhou Yao was still the empress, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was not so chaotic!"
At this time, the Zhou Dynasty was in turmoil and falling into pieces.
The forces of all parties are divided!
Lu Jiuzhang built a bonfire and roasted monster meat.
I plan to replenish my energy a little before heading to Shiwanda Mountain.
The smell of monster meat was tantalizing, but Lu Jiuzhang and Heizi didn't have much appetite.
In the past few years, especially when they were in the Demon Realm, eating monster meat all day long made both of them a little tired.
But who can satisfy the demonic beast?
Moreover, monster meat contains a lot of energy and can also replenish spiritual power.
No matter how greasy it is and you don’t want to eat it, you still have to find a way to eat it.
Lu Jiuzhang cut off the monster's thigh and handed it to Heizi.
"Case, wipe, wipe..."
At this moment, Lu Jiuzhang heard a subtle voice.
As his consciousness spread, Lu Jiuzhang discovered that an old man in ragged clothes was walking over two streets away.
This unknown castle has been abandoned for more than a year. How did this old man appear?
"Go check out the situation!"
Lu Jiuzhang's figure instantly appeared two streets away.
Facing the old man with no cultivation, Lu Jiuzhang said warily, "Who is your Excellency?"
"What, sir? Are you speaking in human language? Do you have anything to eat? Give me something to eat."
The old man said cursingly.
"Hey, what did you say?"
Heizi was angry.
What kind of attitude does this person have!
"I asked you to speak as a human being, but you are not a human being. Why are you so excited?" the old man shouted.
It’s true when you think about it!
Heizi is a monster.
To be able to be so calm in the face of a man and a monster shows that this old man is somewhat unusual.
Lu Jiuzhang threw the thigh of monster meat that he wanted to give to Heizi to the ragged old man.
"I have something else to do, please do it yourself."
After that, Lu Jiuzhang took Heizi back to the place where they had barbecued meat.
After eating something casually, Lu Jiuzhang and Heizi planned to leave.
Not knowing the depth of the opponent, Lu Jiuzhang had no intention of taking action.
But just as the two stood up to leave, the ragged old man wandered into the abandoned house and sat across from the two.
"Why are you leaving in such a hurry? One of you is a warrior and the other is a monster, why are you afraid of me, an old man?" The old man smiled, "I am just an ordinary old man with no cultivation."
After that, the old man took out a gourd from his arms and filled it with wine.
The old man ate monster meat and drank fine wine, feeling very uncomfortable.
Lu Jiuzhang didn't believe in evil, so he once again probed out with his spiritual consciousness.
The consciousness is still like a mud cow entering the sea, without any response.
Either this old man is an ordinary person, or his cultivation is extraordinary and far surpasses Lu Jiuzhang.
"Master Jiu, what are you afraid of?"
Heizi said, "How can there be so many masters in the world?"
"That's right!" the old man agreed, "if they were all masters, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"
"Isn't this world already in chaos?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"this……"
The old man choked, "Have you always been so arrogant with your words? You've made it hard for people to eat."
"No, it's just something I feel."
Lu Jiuzhang cut off a piece of monster meat again and gave it to the old man.
For now, it seems that this old man is not a threat.
"I won't eat you for free. I'll give you a piece of advice."
The old man ate the monster meat in several mouthfuls, as if he had not eaten meat for more than ten years, and his mouth was full of oil, "Abandon Confucianism and practice martial arts, Confucianism and Taoism have no future!"
"Senior, can you tell me in detail?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"What are you talking about?" the old man asked.
"Why do you want to persuade me to abandon Confucianism and practice martial arts?" Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Because you will die if you practice Confucianism. Oh, I forgot, you will die if you practice martial arts!" the old man said.
This is a bit unpleasant to say.
"Master Jiu, don't argue with him."
Heizi said, "Let's get down to business."
Lu Jiuzhang nodded, and then said to the old man, "I'm leaving, please excuse me!"
After that, Lu Jiuzhang took Heizi across and left.
But where he was, the old man in ragged clothes changed his figure and turned into an old Confucian scholar in white.
There seemed to be a white light around him, and just standing here, he looked like an immortal.
The oil stains on my mouth also disappeared.
"The world is in chaos!"
The old Confucian scholar in white said, "That boy has an adventure, but I don't know if he can succeed."
After saying that, the old Confucian scholar in white stood up from the ground, turned around, and headed in the direction of Shuizhou County.
His speed was very fast, and he reached Shuizhou County in almost one step.
Such terrifying strength is really amazing.
The old Confucian scholar in white did not go to the Sheriff's Mansion in Shuizhou County, but stopped in a small mountain village.
He put away his white clothes and changed into a piece of coarse cloth. Then the white glory of the old Confucian scholar also dissipated and he became an ordinary old man.
The clothes were quite neat, but a little white from the washing.
Then, the old Confucian scholar walked towards the small mountain village.
This small mountain village is about tens of kilometers away from Shuizhou County.
The people in the village all moved here in the past two or three months, and there are about forty or fifty families living here together.
