Longevity begins with Orion

Seven days later.

Afternoon.

Huh~~huh~~huh~~~

Li Yuan wore heavy armor that was deliberately made heavy to increase the load. He was standing on tiptoes on the black stone floor of the martial arts stage as if he were paying homage to the Buddha. His body sank and curled up, like a giant toad crawling on the ground but about to leap. .

Heavy breathing came from his nose, and there was a faint "rumbling" sound in his belly, like a beast making a low roar.

He felt the increasingly compressed breath in his abdomen, and his whole body felt anxious and boiling.

Time passed by minute by minute.

It was almost evening before Li Yuan stopped practicing, took off his heavy armor, handed the technique back to Master Li, and hurried towards the boat parking area of ​​Nanshi.

He walked quickly in the slightly cold wind, with his fists clenched and his eyes filled with joy. He had already grasped a hint of the trick and felt like he was about to get started.

In the docking area, he was about to board a awning boat when he saw a boat docking on the other side, with a familiar figure still standing on the bow.

Li Yuan hurriedly walked over and shouted: "Brother Cai!"

Cai Ze didn't respond. He was a little dazed compared to a few days ago, as if he hadn't slept well, so he didn't seem to hear Li Yuan's cry.

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then came closer and shouted in a louder voice: "Brother Cai, what a coincidence."

Only then did Cai Ze hear the sound. He turned his head somewhat mechanically. The pupils in his eyes were slightly convex and covered with bloodshot eyes, like twisted red worms crawling on the eyelids. It was extremely uncomfortable.

The pupils finally focused on Li Yuan.

Cai Ze said: "It's Brother Li."

"Brother Cai doesn't seem to be in good spirits. Why don't you take a rest first?" Li Yuandao said, "It won't take more than a day and a half."

"Come on, come on," Cai Ze murmured, "This matter will soon come to light. When it is done, I can rest."

His voice was hoarse.

Li Yuan thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Are they from the Wei family and the Sun family?"

Cai Ze's pupils were wide open and he hissed: "Maybe, maybe not. Hey, they're about to take the bait, they're about to take the bait."

Li Yuan saw that something was wrong with him and was thinking about whether to continue persuading him. Suddenly, Cai Ze stepped on the deck and jumped from the bow of the ship to the shore.

Then a man and a woman emerged from the awning on the ship. Both men and women were wearing bloody black clothes. Their combined strength was around 20. It was obvious that these were two ninth-level warriors who were here to assist Cai Ze.

The man glanced at Li Yuan coldly, but the woman glanced at Li Yuan with interest.

Cai Ze didn't introduce him, and the two people didn't say much and walked straight away.

Li Yuan looked at their backs, feeling a little inexplicably heavy and depressed in his heart.

A gust of cold and sad evening wind blew by. He came back to his senses, looked at the captain of the awning boat, and said from a distance: "Are you going back?"

The boatman said: "I want to wait for Mr. Cai."

Li Yuan didn't mind and got on another boat.

The boat broke through the water and traced its trajectory for about ten feet. The clouds on the horizon were already pale, revealing a somewhat sickly cinnabar red.

After returning home, Li Yuan took a shower and changed clothes. After the meal, he felt a lot more relaxed.

He did not go to bed, but took Madam Yan's hand and said with a smile: "Sister Yan, let's go shopping on the street."

"What are you shopping for? It's a waste of money."

"Buying clothes for you."

"Don't my clothes look good?" Madam Yan turned around slightly. Her blue-and-white-flowered coat wrapped her attractive body, and her black tight pants outlined her long legs. Overall, she looked like a graceful Qiao Cun. Girl, she looks very attractive.

After eating well, getting enough rest, and a safe environment, Yan Yu's good looks are slowly being unsealed.

"Then buy me clothes." Li Yuan grabbed Lady Yan's hand and said, "Let's go."

Lady Yan blushed. It was one thing to do that thing on the couch in the dark, but she felt a little embarrassed to be so affectionate outside.

"Aunt Wang is still here," she whispered, her tone a bit shy.

Li Yuandao: "Aunt Wang, she can't see it."

Sure enough, Aunt Wang was washing the dishes in the corner of the yard with the dinner plate at this time. The two little cats were very sensible and helped her beside her.

As the two passed by, Yan Yu called out: "Aunt Wang, my husband and I will go out for a while."

Aunt Wang hurriedly put down the dishes, wiped her hands on her apron, stood up and lowered her head, saying respectfully: "Master, Madam, you are busy with your business."

Li Yuan and Yan Yu were walking on the street. Compared with Xiaomofang, the night market in Yinxi was much better.

The flaming red lanterns are connected in a string, illuminating the pedestrians walking on the long street.

The crowds of people are all different, and they are constantly going in and out of the shops.

The vendors pushing carts and the salesmen carrying goods were all shouting hard.

Li Yuan saw a cloth shop with the inscription "Splendid Cloth Shop" written on it. There were quite a few guests coming and going, and it looked quite busy.

Li Yuan looked at the cloth in the house from a distance and thought it was good, so he said: "Sister Yan, buy a piece of silk and satin to make clothes for you. The weather is getting warm."

"don't want!"

"bring it on."

"Oh, no, there are so many people."

Lady Yan called softly, but was still pulled into the cloth village.

The cloth shop clerk glanced at the two people. One was wearing civilian clothes and the other was wearing a village girl's coat. He pretended not to see the two of them and went to meet the other person wearing brocade clothes.

As soon as Mrs. Yan entered this cloth village, she felt something was wrong all over. The men and women walking around seemed to be those unattainable young ladies in the past. Even though she was standing here, she was incompatible with these people, like two different people. world.

Some nervousness and embarrassment flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she just wanted to escape, so she twisted and whispered: "Mr. sir, let's go back."

Li Yuan glanced at the guy, who acted as if they didn't exist.

Li Yuan was really speechless

At this moment, a voice suddenly came.

"Isn't this Brother Li?"

Li Yuan looked around at the sound, but a thin young man with brocade clothes and tied hair walked out of the crowd.

With a smile on his face, the young man was squeezing his way out of the crowd and walked to him.

Li Yuan identified him and recognized that the person was Yu Mao, the senior who had given him the uniform and sword of the Blood Knife Sect that day. He cupped his fists and smiled and said, "Senior Brother Yu, what a coincidence!"

Yu Mao approached, patted his shoulder affectionately, and said with a smile: "What senior brother? I'm afraid I will call you senior brother from now on."

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

Yu Mao said: "Master Li's direct disciple can directly be promoted to the inner sect. I am the outer sect, you are the inner sect, and you are the senior brother."

Li Yuan nodded and murmured "I see."

Before he could speak, Yu Mao glanced around and saw that Li Yuan and the woman beside him were isolated. He immediately understood and snorted coldly: "Your Jinxiu Cloth Shop is getting bigger and bigger. ! I, Senior Brother Li, am here, but no one from you comes to ask?"

Yu Mao is a regular customer here. When he spoke like this, the waiter immediately panicked. The landlady who was introducing this year's "new" products to the guests in the distance also immediately cast her gaze, and then hurried over again. After learning about Li Yuan After learning about his identity and what had just happened, the proprietress apologized profusely, called the waiter over, scolded him severely, and then personally led the two of them to select silk and satin.

She chose a beige peach blossom brocade for Lady Yan and a black silk satin for Li Yuan. She also asked a tailor to measure their sizes and agreed to make two pairs of beautiful clothes, but the money was too high. Refuse to accept.

Li Yuan paid attention to the prices of the people around him and put seven taels of silver on the counter before leaving. When the proprietress of the "Splendid Cloth Shop" found out, she had already walked away.

Yu Mao followed from a distance.

Lady Yan was holding her man's arm on the left, while Yu Mao was chatting with him casually on the right, and then left with a smile after a while.

When the surroundings were quiet, Madam Yan looked at him with admiration and said, "Ms. sir, you have a very high status in the Blood Knife Sect. Everyone is fawning over you."

Li Yuan shook his head and said nothing.

Madam Yan held his arm and walked on the streets of this troubled pure land, murmuring softly: "It feels a bit like a dream."

The next day, Li Yuan landed on the island as usual.

The island was a bit noisy, with handymen running around, but in the distance a large ship with four teeth was coming through the waves and docked at the docking area. The man in white-trimmed black clothes on the bow of the ship had his hands behind his chest and his chest was raised. He had strong muscles and was very impressive.

Behind that man were some Blood Blade Sect disciples in Xuanbianxuanyi. Just by looking at the clothes and position, one could tell that this man was obviously a big shot in the Blood Sword Sect.

Li Yuan grabbed a running handyman and asked, "What happened?"

The handyman wanted to break free, but when he saw it was Li Yuan, he bowed respectfully and said: "Master Li, the three Blood Knife Sect masters who came to the island last night are all missing! Everyone is looking for them in the black market.

For this moment, the black-faced elder in the door even came in person. "

"The black-faced elder." Li Yuan's pupils shrank and he subconsciously asked, "Is Cai Ze among the missing people?"

The handyman nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, there is Mr. Cai. He is also missing. Mr. Li, if there is nothing else, I will go and get busy first."

"Um"

Li Yuan let go of his hand and let the handyman run away.

He stood there, a little dazed, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

At this moment, he felt waves of coldness rising on his skin, as if he had been scraped by a sharp knife, and his heart fell to the bottom of the ice abyss.

Before, he and Cai Ze were talking about drinking together and chatting about romance, liquor and passion, but before he could drink the wine, the person was gone.

This shouldn't be a corpse burial case at all, but

"Hoo, hoo, hoo"

He took a few deep breaths, suppressing the sense of depression and horror deeply into his heart, and then walked towards the north gate of the black market.

He must hurry up and become stronger and break through as soon as possible in order to protect himself.
