First Sword Cultivator Observation Report

The black river flows from a distance, floods the dense limestone, rushes over the steep cliffs, and roars to cover the sky and the sun.The sun also dimmed, and the fireworks turned into a dark golden lava, sinking into the bottom of the river, burning out the last handful of sparks.

It's dark.

The feeling of oppression was so thick that almost all the air was taken away.The body keeps sinking, drowning, trembling in the endless center of weightlessness.

His throat seemed to be blocked by something dead, and the throat and tongue were so painful that he couldn't make any sound.

Just when he was about to lose his sanity, someone grabbed his finger suddenly, and a crisp voice pierced through layers of black water and penetrated the sea of ​​consciousness: "Brother, brother?"

Yan Chongcan suddenly opened his eyes, and the dazzling flames poured into his pupils, almost causing him to fall into temporary blindness, and it took him a while to react from the dream.

His voice was hoarse: "Tian Ni, what time is it?"

Tian Ni squatted opposite him, holding two lamps that illuminated his eyes, and replied with a frown: "Tian Ni has been up for a long time, and I am hungry."

Knowing that she couldn't tell the time, Yan Chongcan rubbed his eyes, calculated with his fingers, and found that it was almost noon, so he couldn't help being a little anxious: "Have you seen Senior Brother?"

"No," Tian Ni paused, and added, "I haven't."

Where did Si Jue go?

Putting on his clothes in a hurry, Yan Chongcan took Tian Ni and ran downstairs. When he ran under the pontoon bridge, he saw a familiar figure leisurely admiring the flowers.

"Are you up?" Gu Yushu held up a flower and smiled, "Come here, your boss will let me take care of you."

"...?" Yan Chongcan walked over slowly, not quite understanding the situation.

Gu Yushu tucked his hair behind his ears, and rolled his eyes at him with a smile: "He went to the secret realm by himself, and asked me to take care of you these few days, are you happy?"

"He... went by himself?"

Yan Chongcan paused every word, and could hardly believe his ears.

"The Hunting Secret Realm is not a place for a little honey like you to go," Gu Yushu pinned a flower to Yan Chongcan's ear, and admired the beauty Dai Hua for a moment with satisfaction, "not to mention there is another flower here." Little oil bottle, tsk tsk tsk, isn't it courting death if you go there?"

Tian Ni grabbed two petals and stuffed them into his mouth. He didn't realize that the "little oil bottle" was referring to himself. He just chewed it a few times before he turned into a bitter face and spit it out with tears in his eyes.

Yan Chongcan patted her on the back perfunctorily as comfort, and looked at Gu Yushu with a bit of disbelief in his eyes: "But senior brother is alone... By the way, he still holds the Merchant Card!"

"Don't worry, the secret realm is not under the jurisdiction of Yintai City. Anyone can enter, life and death are up to you," Gu Yushu licked his lower lip, and laughed as if smelling blood. A bloodthirsty person like Si Jue."

Yan Chongcan's hair almost stood on end: "Brother, that's not it!"

"Not what? Not bloodthirsty?" Gu Yushu snorted and pinched his face. "Look at you, you don't know how he was raised, so you help him talk."

"He said you were an old friend." Yan Zhongcan's eyes were heavy, and he broke away from his hand, his hoarse voice was much lower than before, "The past is the past. You will not have any results if you provoke me and the senior brother."

"Then guess...are we friends...or enemies?" Gu Yushu's face was a little distorted, and the ending sound was almost out of breath.

Yan Chongcan pulled Tian Ni behind him, and solemnly cupped his hands: "Although Your Excellency is willing to take care of you, you really don't dare to be a junior, so I will leave here, thank you."

"Hey..." Before Gu Yushu opened his mouth to finish speaking, the person in front of him quickly walked away, as if he was avoiding some scourge.

Yan Chongcan breathed out until he came out of Zilailou, found a hidden place and squatted side by side with Tian Ni, and muttered to himself with his chin propped up: "It's just to catch a flame fox, no matter how dangerous it is, I won't leave without saying goodbye." There must be something hidden about this matter."

Tian Ni imitated his expression and nodded in a way of saving face.

Yan Chongcan didn't notice that she was cheering, and continued to mutter: "We don't know each other well, if I find someone by myself, that's all. I'll bring you... well, it's really difficult."

"Take me, take me!" Tian Ni hurriedly stated.

"...Do you think it's fun?" Yan Zhongcan nodded her forehead, "Senior brother obviously doesn't want us to go, but I really don't feel at ease letting him go into danger alone. Although my cultivation is not good, I still have something to save my life... ...how on earth should this be done?"

Tian Ni was not in the mood to listen to his long speeches, and kept his eyes on the people coming and going on the street, and suddenly tugged on his sleeves: "Brother, look!"

"What's the matter?" Yan Chongcan turned his head to look, and it turned out that a convoy was passing by in a mighty manner, which disturbed people so much that they scattered to make way for it.There is also a huge black flag on each carriage, and on the flag is a sun that is about to be swallowed by the black waves.

In an instant, the reality and the dream merged, and the suffocation of drowning swept over again. He shook a few times before barely standing still. When he recovered, the convoy had already gone far.

After chasing on the road, all he saw was a shadow of a flag. Yan Chongcan stood there for a while, and resolutely found a kind-hearted passerby to ask about the origin of the convoy.

"You said that, it is a person who directly belongs to the city lord. He usually works for the city lord, and usually travels in such a ostentatious way."

The people at the side heard it, and also interjected: "It seems to be called Fenyingtang. The hall master is very beautiful, but we have never seen the real deity. According to my brother in Fenyingtang, he I like to wear blue shirts, and for a while, the prices of blue shirts in our city rose sharply, just following his style."

Gu Yushu's face flashed across Yan Chongcan's mind for an instant, and he couldn't help feeling chills.

Keeping the speculation in his heart, he struck while the iron was hot and continued to ask: "Do the two big brothers know how to enter the hunting secret realm?"

The two enthusiastic people looked at each other and persuaded him together: "It is best not to advise you, except for those who are highly cultivated and powerful, that is, some desperadoes are willing to go in and fight, and those of us who are here have never been here. "

"Aren't there only some rare and strange beasts in it? Why is it so dangerous?"

"...Because most of the monks who risked their lives to go," the man lowered his voice, whispering mysteriously in his ear, "are actually 'waiting for the dead' exiled from Yintai City, and they have to go to the secret realm to hunt. Go to the top-rank monsters to redeem your life. If ordinary people kill them, you can go to the Fenying Hall to get a reward. This is an old rule that we all know in the city."

Yan Chongcan frowned slightly incomprehensibly: "Since that's the case, how can anyone other than the deceased dare to go in and kill people?"

"This is the danger of it. How do you know who is waiting for the dead and who is not? Will others believe your identity?" He sighed, "You also saw the car of Fenyingtang. It was swallowed by themselves. They have the list, their own clothing and certificates, and no one will touch them without looking. Every day, they can earn a lot of money just by hunting the dead. "

"You mean..." Yan Chongcan felt as if his heart stopped for a breath, "Will people from Fenying Hall go in and hunt monks?"

"The Hunting Secret Realm also has a nickname of a slaughterhouse, you never knew it?"

Every word hit Yan Zhongcan dizzily like a heavy hammer, all of this was much more terrifying than he imagined, he finally understood why Si Jue wanted to go by himself, and felt the coldness of the conspiracy more deeply.However, he still couldn't let Si Jue go deep into the tiger's mouth, and even suspected that he didn't know the relationship between Gu Yushu and Fenyingtang at all.Although this is only a guess at the moment, he has already vaguely confirmed this idea in his heart.

They saw that the handsome young man still wanted to enter the secret realm, so they could only sigh: "If you have to go, I suggest you go in the direction of the convoy first. There is a shop on the other side of the stone bridge. If you are lucky, you may be able to join some other shops in it." A hunting team is better than being alone."

Yan Chongcan nodded gratefully, thanked him earnestly, and took Tian Ni to look for Shiqiao.

"Tian Ni," Yan Chongcan suddenly remembered something while walking on the road looking around at the little girl, and reminded him solemnly, "If there are outsiders around in the future, you must not talk or laugh, do you understand?"

"why?"

"Because there are bad people, if you don't speak up, they won't think you are easy to bully."

Tian Ni let out a half-comprehension sound.

"Come on, show me a straight face."

Hearing this, Tian Ni tried her best to lengthen her face, without showing any expression, and stared into the distance without squinting.In an instant, she changed from a simple and cute little girl to a cold monk who should not be entered by strangers. From this bluffing appearance alone, no one would have guessed that she was actually just a monster with low intelligence.

Yan Chongcan was full of praise: "Our Tian Ni is really amazing." Hearing this, she puffed out her chest proudly.

Practicing their bluffing expressions, they walked for a long time before they saw a small stone bridge.There are many restaurants on the side, but there is only a dusty shop in the corner, which says "No Silver Pawn Shop".The intuition is here, Yan Chongcan only hesitated for a while, then went straight in.

The inside is quite spacious, and there are not many people at this time, just an old man standing in front of the counter and a few people sitting beside it.As soon as he lifted the curtain and entered the door, several eyes focused on him, and they didn't leave for a long time.

"What do you want to be?" the old man asked with a drawn out voice.

"Enter the secret realm." Yan Chongcan cut to the chase.

"Oh..." The old man took out a booklet, "here, let's read it first."

There is no title on the booklet, and there are only a few sentences after opening, all of which are scary threats such as "death to those who break the oath".

After reading it quickly, Yan Chongcan gave him a fearless look: "Understood."

"There are still three teams that are not yet full, you can talk to them yourself, and just give me some spirit stones after the deal is settled."

Yan Chongcan took advantage of the situation to look inside, and there were really three people sitting who looked like the boss, one of them was a woman with a veil, a young man with the appearance of a frail scholar, and a boy who looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old. , with long braids wrapped around his neck, and a radiance called vitality would shoot out of his eyes.

The woman turned her head and snorted softly: "Go find someone else, the hair hasn't even grown yet, so it's useless at first glance."

Yan Chongcan, who had no hair yet, was calm, and even smiled at her, laughing until she doubted her life before turning her eyes away. She didn't expect the scholar to wave his hand immediately: "We are only short of one person, and you still have one. We can't control it."

The only ones left are the unreliable teenagers.

"Then follow me." The young man grinned, and his temper was very straightforward. "To tell you the truth, more than half of their team is waiting for the dead. If you really go in, you will feel better. As for me, I am alone. There are too many people." It's annoying, you and her are just right."

Yan Chongcan: "..."

Why would it be better for me to take the people with me? Why did the agreed team become one person?

As if he didn't see the rookie's slander, the young man lazily walked to the counter and pulled out two pieces of paper: "I will make a blood oath, and I swear that I will not betray or hurt the team members." Seeing Yan Chongcan's delay in writing, he clicked his tongue With a sound, he took the lead in writing: "I also want to write, this is the rule, hurry up and let's leave early."

The old man was also helping him.

Probably this is the reason why they accept people so easily, they don't even need to ask about their identities, after all, as long as they make an oath, there is no chance for them to do evil to the team.

Although there was a strong feeling of being on a pirate ship, Yan Chongcan really had no choice but to turn around now seemed too late, so he had to finish writing with him, and by the way helped Tian Ni to write a copy too.As soon as he finished writing, the old man flicked his fingertips and took a drop of blood from the three of them and dripped it on the paper in an instant: "Swear, let's go."

After paying the old man an agency fee, Yan Chongcan and Tian Ni followed the young man in a daze, suddenly feeling that the future seemed a bit bleak.

"You probably saw it too, my name is Cui Li, Cui Li who is known as the live fish in the secret realm."

The young man's unrestrained back bounced up and down in front of them, facing the vast expanse of starlight, an unmatched brilliance suddenly arose.

"Follow me, you may not be able to live, but you will definitely have a good time, go to the goddamn shadow of the dead! You just watch carefully."
