He says he doesn't like false reputation, but in fact he cares about it.
Xu Mo was not disgusted with this.
Chasing fame and fortune is human nature.
To be able to slay demons with a sword at such a time is already impressive. Xu Mo quite admired these martial arts people.
At least, they are risking their lives and fighting for the right path in their hearts and the world.
The strength is not good, but the spirit is commendable.
So Xu Mo and Lu Changqing were chatting quite speculatively. The others were enjoying watching Lu Changqing's conversation, so they didn't want to disturb them. They repaired separately and waited for the rain to stop.
At this time, Xu Mo already knew that Lu Changqing and other martial arts masters had rushed to the Tianwu Alliance to discuss the matter of slaying evil spirits.
As they say, the world is in chaos and the people are in dire straits. Those who practice martial arts should step forward and do what they can.
The two have never met before, but now they can chat together and belong to the way of sword.
Although Xu Mo has a high level of cultivation and strong strength, he does not look down on others. Lu Changqing does not know Xu Mo's strength and only thinks that the other person is an ordinary warrior. However, he does not look down on him and can humbly ask each other for advice, so that we can chat together.
At this moment, the two of them were talking about whether the ultimate in swordsmanship lies in 'intent' or 'momentum', or in 'moves' or pure 'force'.
Everyone's view of the same thing is different.
"I believe that the moves can be changed and the strength can be weak, but the 'power' cannot be used in vain. The power is in front and the intention is in the back." Lu Changqing was talking about his swordsmanship.
Xu Mo listened very carefully.
Lu Changqing said that he had not practiced swordsmanship for a long time, but he had only practiced for nine years.
"The martial arts of fists and kicks need time to be polished, but the emphasis on swords is spirituality and understanding. A village woman holding a sword can also kill people. This is the power of a sharp weapon. Therefore, the sword has a scabbard to hide its edge. This is the sword in the hand. If you practice
The power of a sword requires a sword in the heart, but the sword in the heart is also sharp and can hurt people. Naturally, it must also have a sheath, which I call the 'heart sheath'."
Seeing that Xu Mo was studying very seriously, Lu Changqing said more.
His 'Heart Sheath' theory is quite unique and novel. Xu Mo has been exposed to many sword techniques in the past, each of which has its own meaning of swordsmanship. There are also some clever ones among them, and Lu Changqing is considered a clever one.
"The heart sheath hides the power, and it can also be used to accumulate power. This is the key. Therefore, the sword cannot be easily pulled out. Once it is pulled out, it will kill people and be stained with blood. Only in this way can the sword have the power to match all, be indestructible, and fight
Nothing is invincible."
Xu Mo asked at this time: "What if the momentum emerges but the enemy is not dead?"
"The enemy is not dead even though the momentum is strong? Then, I might be the one who dies." Lu Changqing said with a smile.
Xu Mo also laughed.
The opponent's swordsmanship is very fierce.
It has the same effect as the "One Sword that Cuts the Sky" that I realized.
Xu Mo even felt that the opponent's swordsmanship was very similar to his own.
The two chatted without realizing the time.
It was already late in the night, and the rain had slowed down a bit. Some people felt sleepy and sat next to the fire and dozed off. Others were hungry and took out dry food to eat.
At this time, there was a smell of meat coming from outside.
Xu Mo raised his eyes and looked.
There were footsteps outside, and after a while, an elderly couple came in pushing a wooden cart. It seemed that they were also on their way to take shelter from the rain.
One person held an umbrella, but their clothes were a little wet. There was a wooden barrel on the one-wheeled wooden cart, and there was an iron pot inside, smoldering with charcoal, and there was meat in the pot.
Very fragrant.
Selling stewed meat along the road is also a business.
They are usually villagers, and the source of meat is hunters.
"I'm sorry, it's raining outside. We, a couple, are here to take shelter from the rain!" The old man pushing the cart was obedient. After he came in, he bowed to everyone and didn't dare to go too far in. He just put the wooden cart next to the door and rested.
Gululu!
Some people's stomachs are not up to par, and there is nothing they can do. People who practice martial arts consume a lot of food. They have been on the road and haven't eaten much. Although they carry some dry food with them, there is no meat in the dry food.
Especially since this place is already full of meaty aroma.
Too greedy.
But people in the world are very careful. After all, the situation is chaotic, the people are in dire straits, and this place is located in a remote place. Anyone traveling here on a rainy night will be suspected, let alone the two old butcher-selling couples who appeared in the middle of the night.
There is obviously a problem with this.
So everyone cheered up, and those who were still awake gently nudged those who were dozing off. Everyone pretended as if nothing had happened, but in fact they were all ready.
Someone has secretly taken out the 'Ling Chan' to investigate.
The cicada did not scream.
But that doesn't mean it's safe.
Even though this old couple looks very normal.
They are the most ordinary mountain villagers.
The old couple did not talk to the people inside, but just stayed there. They seemed to be very afraid of these martial arts people.
After all, people who practice martial arts are not only physically strong, but also basically all carry weapons.
Both sides were wary of each other, but no one spoke. It was extremely quiet in the dilapidated inn.
Finally, someone broke the silence.
"Brother, what kind of meat is stewed in the pot?"
The one who spoke was Xu Mo.
He is also a little hungry.
I have been in seclusion at the bottom of the lake for two months. Since I came out, although I have eaten a few monsters and weird things with the "Wild Hand", I have never eaten anything serious.
When the old man heard this, he stood up and said with a smile: "Wild boar!"
"Where did it come from?"
"My husband and I caught the food during the day and stewed it in a pot. They ate a lot, but they couldn't eat it anymore. Everyone in the village dispersed. They just went out to make a living. They bought some meat and wanted to exchange it for some silver coins.
"
"Give me a bowl!"
Xu Mo walked over.
At this time, Lu Changqing pulled Xu Mo and whispered: "Brother Xu, the world is dangerous, be careful of fraud!"
This is a friendly reminder.
Xu Mo smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood.
The other warriors were also puzzled. This obviously looked abnormal. Who knew what kind of meat was in the pot and whether it was poisoned? How dare this person eat it?
"At first glance, it seems that he has no experience in the world of martial arts!"
"Or I'm just too greedy."
"Don't tell me, I'm also very greedy. That meat smells so delicious."
Here Xu Mo approached, took some broken silver and handed it over. The old man quickly wiped his hands on his body and took it, saying that there was too much and there was no money to find.
"Then bring more meat!"
Xu Mo was generous and forthright.
Everyone watched as the old man opened the wooden lid and opened the iron pot from the inside. Suddenly, the smell of meat became stronger. The old woman over there also took the bowl and chopsticks, very quickly, sandwiched the meat and filled the soup.
Xu Mo took it, smelled it, picked up a piece and ate it.
"fragrant!"
The old couple are human beings, and the meat in the pot is really wild boar.
Life is not easy, but there are always people who persevere.
At this time, Xu Mo asked Lu Changqing to come and taste it.
The latter was also a free and easy person. Seeing that Xu Mo was fine after eating, he also came over, took a piece of meat and ate it.
Everyone had different thoughts and some were suspicious, wondering if this Xu Mo was working with the old couple and deliberately set a trap for them.
According to their Jianghu character, they had just planned to take the first step and kill the old couple.
In this way, no matter whether there are problems or not, hidden dangers can be nipped in the cradle.
The most secure.
But now, it’s hard to start.
"Master Lu, he seems to trust that person very much."
"Hush, wait and see what happens!"
Over there, Xu Mo and Lu Changqing had already eaten a bowl.
Both of them said it smells good.
"It would be nice if I had some wine, but it's a pity that I forgot to bring it when I came out this time." Lu Changqing was very sorry about this.
After a while, the others saw that Xu Mo and Lu Changqing were fine after eating the meat, and they couldn't help it anymore. They didn't know who was the first to come over, but after a while, the pot of meat was sold out.
To be honest, wild boar meat is not delicious and not that fragrant.
Can you evaluate the food and when will it be scored?
At this time, the meat is very fragrant.
At this time, Xu Mo wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "I've eaten the meat and my stomach is full. It's time to get down to business."
Lu Changqing was puzzled and asked what the serious matter was.
Xu Mo drew his sword and swept it away before sheathing it.
The process is like swatting a mosquito to death.
No one could react at all, mainly because Xu Mo drew his sword so suddenly and fast that they couldn't react at all.
The next moment, a human head rolled down.
"ah!"
"Senior Brother Zhou!"
"You, how dare you kill someone!"
The one who died was a member of the Fugu Gang. Xu Mo's sword was very sharp and he could kill people without drawing blood.
Of course, it's also because there is no blood in this person's body.
It was Lu Changqing who noticed the abnormality. He lowered his head and looked at the heads on the ground and the headless bodies. There was no blood.
The flesh of the wound was ashes, as if all the blood in this man's body had long been drained.
This is obviously not normal.
At this moment, the cicada sounded.
The headless corpse on the ground twitched, then suddenly bounced up.
This frightened the members of the Pufferfish Gang who were furious and were about to ask Xu Mo for an explanation.
Suddenly everyone took a few steps away and stared at the headless body in horror.
The next moment, a strange laugh came from the mouth of the human head on the ground.
"Giggle, giggle, how did you tell?"
Pfft, pfft!
Many strange bones emerged from the human head. They were sharp and jointed. These limb-like bones held up the human head. It looked like a crab or a spider.
Human head spider.
This scene has never been seen by ordinary people. Let alone the martial arts masters, at least they can still stand. The old couple selling meat are already frightened.
The two of them collapsed on the ground with their hands and feet weak.
The chirping of cicadas is more urgent and harsh.
"I have a better nose when it comes to smelling it." Xu Mo looked around and said, "There's another one who can come out too. He can't be hidden. He's hiding in the body. He can deceive the cicada, but he can't deceive me!
"
Another pufferfish gang member over there suddenly rushed towards Xu Mo.
The same goes for the human-headed spider and the headless corpse.
There was a sudden siege from three parties.
Obviously they wanted to catch Xu Mo off guard, and the strange things also knew that Xu Mo was the greatest threat to them here.
Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas, the sword light flashed, and the sharp energy pierced the air.
The battle is over.
Xu Mo beheaded two of them, the human-headed spider and the hidden second weird, headless corpse, but they were beheaded by Lu Changqing.
Lu Changqing's sword is indeed as he said. It pays attention to the power of the sword, and once it is unsheathed, it must kill the enemy. It seems to have the power to destroy the cauldron and sink the boat.
"What a sword!"
Xu Mo sighed in praise.
In the terrifying scene just now, other warriors were at a loss and unable to react in time. Only Lu Changqing was able to overcome his fear and kill the enemy with his sword.
It is worthy of being rated as the third sword in the world.
Both weirdos were killed.
Afterwards, it was deduced that the two men got into trouble when they went out alone to relieve themselves.
Moreover, that weird thing can kill people, eat their internal organs, and hide inside the body. At this stage, even the cicada cannot detect it. Only when it is exposed can it sound a warning.
When Xu Mo captured the cicada, some people speculated that Xu Mo was extremely powerful.
It's now confirmed.
In fact, even Lu Changqing paled in front of the other party.
Now no one is saying that Xu Mo is overestimating his abilities, and now that he is commenting on the top three swordsmen in the world, no one thinks that he is arrogant.
"Xu Daxia, is there anything weird among us?"
Probably frightened by the situation just now, Gang Leader Liu stepped forward to ask for advice.
Sincere attitude.
"No, but the weird behavior is unpredictable. Try not to act alone. No matter what you do, make sure that three, even four or five people are present at the same time."
Xu Mo said something.
In fact, this is just to guard against some weak and weird ones. If you encounter a powerful one, it will be useless even if dozens or hundreds of people are together.
"Then what kind of monster is this?" Looking at the corpse wrapped in a straw mat over there, everyone looked shocked.
Just now, Xu Mo asked them to wrap the body in a straw mat and not let anyone get close to it.
"There are many weird things in the world. I have never seen anything like this. In short, don't act alone and wait for dawn."
Xu Mo looked outside at this time.
For him, the two parasitic demons that occupied his body and sucked blood just now were not enough evidence. Lu Changqing could kill one of them with his sword, which explained the problem.
The real threat is what's outside.
After all, there are different levels of weird and evil spirits. Those with a truly high level will not attack so rashly, because it's like Xu Mo can smell the smell of weird and evil spirits.
Those high-level weird things can also detect Xu Mo.
They are afraid, so they will not come close, and will only peek in a dark corner in the distance.
On the contrary, only those low-level weirdos would act foolishly.
When it was almost dawn, the rain that had been falling all night finally stopped.
At this time, a group of martial arts masters already regarded Xu Mo as the leader of the horse and saddle. There was no other way. Strength would determine the right to speak.
Everyone left the inn together and walked for more than ten miles. When they arrived at a small town, they were relieved when they saw a lot of people doing activities. Xu Mo also asked the old couple to leave. After all, they were not warriors and there was no need to participate.
A gathering of the Tianwu Alliance.
As for Xu Mo, he naturally wants to go.
Firstly, he was interested, secondly, he wanted to learn more, and thirdly, he felt that there was something wrong with this gathering of the Tianwu Alliance.
But it's just suspicion.
In addition, I heard that the Tianwu Alliance invited some of the best experts in the world, such as Dongling Zhijie, Lin Muchen, etc., who were also invited.
But whether it will come or not, I'm not sure.
"It's only a day's journey from where the Tianwu League is. If nothing unexpected happens, we can reach it before dark." Lu Changqing told Xu Mo that the Tianwu League is located in a small town.
Everyone in the town has a relationship with the Tianwu Alliance. It can be said that the Tianwu Alliance is extremely powerful.
"The main thing is that they know how to do business. Once they have money, they will have power. Once they have power, there will be experts attached to them, and it will snowball like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger."
March all the way.
The sky is still overcast and gray, even at noon when the sun is supposed to be at its strongest.
Xu Mo could feel that there were strange monsters secretly watching and following them along the way.
Naturally, he has no good intentions.
In the afternoon, while walking on the mountain road, Xu Mo suddenly looked to one side. There was a pavilion halfway up the mountain in the distance. There were seven or eight people in the pavilion, both young and old, men and women. They just stood there blankly, walking toward
Look here.
Xu Mo wanted to go over and ask, but when he thought about it, this might be a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
If he leaves, this group of people will probably be in trouble.
ignore!
Look at love however you want.
Next, similar situations happened from time to time.
The most outrageous thing was that when Xu Mo was passing by a fork in the road, he saw a man dressed as a woodcutter waiting there.
Seeing him coming, the woodcutter stood up and held his hands in his hands: "Fellow Taoist, can you step aside and say something?"
Xu Mo naturally saw that the other party was not a human being, and the distance was very close this time. He was not afraid of deception, so he walked over, keeping a maximum of ten feet away from the people behind him.
The woodcutter whispered at this moment: "Fellow Taoist, the habit of eating alone is not good!"
