Mortal Mirror

Beneath the old locust tree, Chen Bajin, with his arm around Li Ergou's shoulders, said, "Ergou, brother, say no more. I acknowledge you as my brother. If you ever come to Fish City, look for me directly. Whatever the matter, your brother will handle it properly for you."

Hearing this, Li Ergou felt a little more comfortable and nodded, "Okay, don't worry. I'll definitely look for you when I go to Fish City."

Just kidding, you ate so much of my turtle jelly. If I don't go and fleece you, wouldn't I be at a loss?

Unexpectedly, Chen Bajin didn't seem ready to leave and actually said, "That, Ergou, brother, your turtle jelly is indeed good. If you have any to spare, give your brother two more bowls. Our line of work is too dangerous. Having turtle jelly is like having something to protect our lives, isn't it?"

"Get lost..."

Li Ergou's eyes turned red. He should have realized earlier that this guy was up to no good. He didn't expect this guy's skin to be comparable to his own, oh no, even thicker than his own, thicker than the city walls.

Without a tearful farewell, Li Ergou flew into the air, his heart full of gloom.

Chen Bajin left with his brothers, looking at the three bowls of turtle jelly in his arms, his eyes revealing unconcealed smugness.

He thought to himself, this Ergou brother is all bark and no bite. Three bowls, three bowls of turtle jelly! He's really generous. It seems that one should be a bit thick-skinned. Otherwise, how could one get this thing?

Say no more, Ergou brother is righteous. When he comes to Fish City next time, I must take him to Yangchun Brothel for some fun.

Li Ergou sped along, feeling somewhat anxious. It wasn't because he had lost more than a dozen bowls of turtle jelly, but because he was worried about where that corpse fiend had gone and where those green-scaled zombies had gone.

Wherever these guys go, it's all harm and no benefit. This matter is of great importance and must be reported to the County Sheriff immediately.

In less than a quarter of an hour, he returned to the Ku Mountain Courtyard and then hurried to the county office. To his dismay, the County Sheriff had gone to Fish City on business. Helpless, this matter had to be delayed. He only hoped that those zombies wouldn't come to Bitter Water County.

In the following days, he had Lu Yun and Zhang Long and the others pay attention to news in the county, especially about zombies. The others were puzzled and didn't know what was going on. Li Ergou was afraid of causing panic, so he didn't tell them the truth.

Who knew that after some time, nothing happened. Li Ergou thought he was probably overthinking it. Afterward, he put the matter behind him and began to let himself go again.

Every day, he diligently cultivated. This turtle jelly was powerful. He also bought some medicinal herbs and directly stewed all the remaining turtle meat, including the previous batch, making a total of six hundred and seventy-two teacups.

If all these things were sold, they would surely fetch a huge amount of wealth. However, not only were they precious, but he also didn't dare to take them out to sell, after all, you couldn't explain the source of this turtle meat.

One day, outside the Ku Mountain Courtyard, on an open space, Li Ergou moved his divine sense, and countless sword energies were released from the Fish Scale Sword. These sword energies transformed into one small sword after another, no more than three inches long. In just a moment, within ten meters of the Fish Scale Sword, hundreds of sword energy small swords had appeared.

As he moved his divine sense, the Fish Scale Sword, carrying hundreds of sword energy small swords, shot towards a huge locust tree in front. Only a series of booming sounds were heard, and the entire locust tree was blasted into a sky full of fragments and exploded.

Li Ergou was extremely excited. This was the first form of the Ancient Sword Manual he had been practicing diligently for many days, Flowing Clouds and Drifting Snow. The book said that if this sword was refined to the extreme, it could transform into thousands upon thousands of small swords with one strike. Even more, there might be hundreds of thousands. Li Ergou didn't dare to imagine such a scene.

Even so, he was shocked by the power of this Flowing Clouds and Drifting Snow. Just now, that giant tree, which three people could barely hug, had disappeared under a round of flying swords, only turning into a sky full of debris. The terrifying power of its sword moves can be imagined.

If it were to hit someone, it would probably be directly turned into blood foam.

He sighed in his heart, the Ancient Sword Sect was indeed well-deserved. He wondered what expression Yu Tailai would have when he saw that he had made such great progress.

At the Ancient Sword Sect's sundry shop, Yu Tailai leaned out and looked outside, finally curling his lips and saying, "Strange, why hasn't that stinky kid come these days? Sigh, stupid and clumsy, still wants to inherit my Ancient Sword Sect's mantle, keep dreaming. To be honest, shouldn't I find a decent disciple to continue the Ancient Sword Sect's legacy?

If the Ancient Sword Sect is cut off from me, wouldn't I be letting down my master's teachings and wouldn't I have the face to see those old guys in the future."

Thinking so, he became a little depressed again, tangled in his heart for a while, and still decided to go to the Hundred Flower Brothel to relax. When people have worries, the pressure will increase.

He thought to himself, not without reason, and had already pulled down the curtain, which read, "The shopkeeper is depressed today and is going out to drink. Closed for three days, please do not disturb."

Li Ergou sheathed his sword. Now that Flowing Clouds and Drifting Snow had been mastered, he was extremely happy. However, he immediately moved his divine sense and took out another item, which was the Dragon Slaying Blade, which in his opinion was just a pig-slaughtering knife.

He held the knife in his hand, sighing in his heart. He wanted to freeload it at the beginning, but he didn't expect to be tricked by those two guys in the end. Now his teeth itch with hatred.

He looked at the knife and suddenly found that the knife had been sharpened. The blade shone with a cold light, carrying a hint of unspeakable sharpness. Li Ergou was surprised. He clearly remembered that the knife was not sharpened when he threw it in.

Looking again at the originally ink-black blade, a blood-colored pattern had actually grown. The pattern had just extended on the blade, about two inches or so, and it seemed to be still growing. Li Ergou exclaimed, this copper mirror is too domineering.

However, he was a little puzzled. The Fish Scale Sword, which was also copied, had not changed at all. Why was this knife sharpened and grown patterns? Could it be that this meteorite iron is alive? This idea scared him a lot.

Fortunately, the weight of the knife had not changed, otherwise he would have really thought he had seen a ghost. He waved it a few times. The knife was extremely heavy and could not be used without martial arts true energy.

However, the knife was too short and was a mortal weapon. It could not be imbued with divine sense and could not be used as easily as the Fish Scale Sword.

Fortunately, with the gravitational pull technique, it could also be used in the air, but the effect was not comparable to a magic weapon flying sword. To give this knife the greatest power, it would still have to be used in close combat with brute force.

He smiled bitterly in his heart, but he wanted to see how powerful this knife was. So he came to the front of Ku Mountain and found a large tree that was about three people hugging. He moved his divine sense, and martial arts true energy was released.

Only a light buzzing sound was heard, and the pig-slaughtering knife, which had been infused with martial arts true energy, actually made a buzzing sound. As martial arts true energy was continuously infused, a trace of cold light was emitted from the blade, as if it had come alive.

Li Ergou was surprised in his heart, not knowing what was going on. He had not expected that this knife could carry the power of martial arts. At this moment, a faint black light flickered on the blade.

He didn't think much about it and slashed at the huge tree with a knife. A cold light flashed out, and the pig-slaughtering knife struck the trunk of the tree.
