It is the twelfth lunar month, withering trees, biting cold wind, and the earth is covered with silver.

There are sycamore trees standing and new buds bloom in the cold winter. They carry the falling snowflakes and look beautiful in an instant.

The New Year is approaching quietly. After the coldest month, spring will be revived.

The closer you get to the southwest border, the less people are.

The sound of the creaking boots on the snow on the bottom of the snow seemed very clear in the quiet mountains.

The Tianhe River has been frozen, but the flowing river water can still be seen under the thick ice surface. Li Mengzhou and Xiao Zhinan walked along the coast and stopped at a certain place. Li Mengzhou drew his sword to slash the ice surface, and instantly formed a sword mark that was more than ten inches deep.

He stepped on the frozen river surface, staring at the river water flowing under the ice surface, waiting patiently, being stimulated by the sword energy, and fortunately, the fish belly turned white and appeared in front of him in just a moment.

Li Mengzhou took the fish, swept away the snow somewhere on the shore, and found a way to set the fire and prepare to grill the fish.

Xiao Zhinan stood quietly beside him, staring at the location of the Tianqi Wasteland on the southwest border. This place was not far apart, and she could vaguely sense the terrifying aura coming from that direction.

Li Mengzhou moved a stone and grilled fish on it. The conditions were a bit difficult, but fortunately he had encountered even more difficult situations, not to mention Xiao Zhinan. Beiyan is covered with ice and snow all year round. That is the real thing I can’t find anything to eat. Compared to them, they still have fish to eat at this moment, I don’t know how many times happier they are.

Xiao Zhinan's gaze moved away from the direction of the Tianqi Wasteland. He looked at Li Mengzhou who was grilling fish, as if he was seeing Jing Siren. She whispered: "There is a snow-capped mountain range in Beiyan, which stretches for countless miles. Although Tianqi Snow Mountain also blocked the powerful people outside the mountain from the Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon-Demon

"The people living near the capital of Beiyan are not that hard, but the snow-capped mountains are very wide, covering most of the Northern Yan. Most people live in the cold winter all year round, and it is many times colder than now."

"I grew up in Jianlu, and I have no worries about food and clothing since I was a child. I can't remember the memories of my very young age, but my parents were frozen to death in the snow and ice. Even though I lived a life that was countless times happier than the people of Northern Yan in Jianlu, the deepest memories that were once hard to forget."

After hearing Xiao Zhinan's words, Li Mengzhou was silent for a little. Although he had never been to Beiyan, he could not understand what kind of environment the people of Beiyan lived in. It was absolutely unreal to rely solely on imagination. However, his life since childhood was actually very bad, which could resonate with him.

His understanding of Xiao Zhinan was only superficial. At this time, Xiao Zhinan was inspired and Li Mengzhou also said seriously: "I survived in the border towns of Jiang Kingdom when I was five years old. Wars are very common there, and people die every day. The people living there are either very simple or very fierce, but it is due to the environment that can do anything to survive."

"I had begged along the street, almost freezing and starving to death, stealing things, robbing things, being chased and beaten, and even robbing food from wild dogs. But I was very brave at that time, and now I can't remember how I muster up the courage to do those things."

"Fortunately, after only one year of experience, I met the noble man in my life and the teacher who taught me to embark on the path of martial arts. He is the famous grandmaster Zhao Wuji in the world, and the founder of the Fengjiang Grandmaster Alliance, and the first leader in the world."

In the secular world, there was no existence of the Grandmaster Alliance. All the gangs and sects occupied their own territory and fought against each other. Although they were afraid of the existence of the Grandmaster, it was actually relatively chaotic because the Grandmaster was not controlled and was an invincible existence in the world. It was because of the appearance of Zhao Wuji and the existence of the Grandmaster Alliance, the Grandmaster was controlled, and the Jianghu was considered to have rules.

Even in the world of cultivators, Zhao Wuji is still famous. After all, he is a martial arts master who can kill peak cultivators of the second level with just one knife through ancient times, and even has the ability to fight against cultivators of the third level. This is something that no martial arts master has ever been able to do.

Xiao Zhinan looked at Li Mengzhou who was grilling fish seriously. Under the reflection of the snow, Li Mengzhou's skin seemed to be darker, but that look a bit beautiful.

Li Mengzhou did not look up and continued, "I have followed Zhao Wuji to practice martial arts for three years. It should be considered a bit of qualification. In three years, I went from being a silly boy who was very brave and had been poisoned for a year in a chaotic place on the border and became a fool who didn't know how to speak, and turned into a fourth-level warrior."

"Zhao Wuji wanted to pursue the great path of cultivation, so I re-entered the chaotic place that once made me have nightmares every day. Although I barely had the ability to protect myself, I was still a little naive after all. I didn't understand the world at all. I was deceived. I went to a base for cultivating assassins and continued to survive there. I killed too many people and saw too many dead people, and finally became a little crazy."

"Although that place brought me endless pain, it also made me stronger. I found the best opportunity to kill all the people there, and followed the clues and uprooted the entire assassin organization and corpses were everywhere."

"When I left there, I was twelve years old and seriously injured. I was struggling like a beggar, trying my best to survive. But bad luck seemed to be with me. I was sold to the fighting arena of Mangcheng and fought with the vicious beasts. Fortunately, I met my first friend from there, and it was his father who rescued me. I finally lived a normal life."

Li Mengzhou recalled the scenes of the past, and seemed to have become very dull and had no emotional fluctuations, as if he was describing other people's stories.

He talked a lot to Xiao Zhinan, including returning to the chaotic place on the border, transforming into an assassin Fusheng, killing many people, earning a lot of money, living in Shuning Town for three years, until he was seventeen years old, leaving Shuning Town for the capital, and eventually becoming the current Li Mengzhou.

Xiao Zhinan was a little moved. She didn't expect Li Mengzhou's past to be like this.

"You are now Mr. Qi from Ligong Sword Courtyard. You are no longer the stupid boy you used to be. You who hold your natal sword will definitely be bright in the future. That is just your experience in life. I think as long as you don't abandon the sword in your hand, the road to the sword immortal will always be in front of you, waiting for you to cross."

Li Mengzhou suddenly looked up at Xiao Zhinan and said with a smile: "This really doesn't look like what Miss Xiao said."

Xiao Zhinan frowned and said, "What do I say?"

Li Mengzhou quickly lowered his head and continued to grill the fish, muttering: "Of course Miss Xiao's words are all good words, which have benefited me a lot."

He was busy handing the grilled fish to Xiao Zhinan, and then roasting another fish. No one said anything. But for only a moment, Xiao Zhinan sat directly in the snow, facing the fire, holding the grilled fish in his hand, and whispered: "I am the disciple of Jianlu, but I am also the only one in Jianlu. Compared with Ligong Jianlu, the talents of Beiyan Langhuan Jianlu are even more withered. At least the wealthy country of Jiang is unavoidable. Although it is impossible to avoid poor people, it is something that Beiyan cannot compare with."

"The Jiang Kingdom is the most vast dynasty in the world. The only ones are Nanyu, Western Jin, Eastern Wei, and Northern Yan. Although the territory of the Eastern Wei and Northern Yan is basically not much different, and some of the northern borders of the Eastern Wei also come into contact with snow-capped mountains, relatively speaking, most of the Eastern Wei people are happy, and the people can be said to live and work in peace and contentment, and basically have no worries. This is a world of difference from Northern Yan."

"This also makes it difficult for Beiyan's cultivation genius to stand up. If he cannot bear the suffering in the early stage, he will freeze or starve to death. He rarely has the opportunity to enter the mountain gate of cultivation. Even if he survives, it will take a long time to recuperate his body. If he suffers from any disease, it will actually be difficult to go as far as the road to cultivation."

"Young people with high qualifications for cultivation are basically monopolized by the Taoist Palace. Five holy temples are located in the entire territory of Beiyan and are constantly transporting talents. It is difficult for the cultivation mountain gate of Beiyan to have a chance to make a name for themselves. This is why, except for the Taoist Palace, Beiyan only has a five-level sect, Jianlu."

"And if my teacher had not been a great sword cultivator, he had also made a great reputation in the world. The sword immortal king took the moon to destroy the West Tianmen Temple of the Taoist Palace with a sword, and strengthened the sword cultivator's momentum, it would be difficult for my teacher to gain a foothold in Beiyan."

"Faced with the provocation of the Sword Immortal King Chengyue, the Taoist Palace chose to calm down the situation, so it would not be able to blatantly oppress Jianlu. Although Jianlu and the Western Jin Jianlu are independent, they also belong to Jianmen. Because of the appearance of the Sword Immortal King Chengyue, the disciples of the Sword Gate can occupy a place in the world."

The re-rise of the Sword Sect is indeed the Sword Immortal King Chengyue played a key role. The Sword Sect, which is sunny and sunny, was suppressed very fiercely and was about to disappear from the world. It was Wang Chengyue who broke the barriers of the five realms and entered the realm of the Sword Immortal, which gave the Sword Sect a chance to breathe, thus entering the quiet mountains and seas, and truly had the right to speak in the world.

But Ligong Sword Courtyard and Langhuan Sword Lu are barely alive. They both represent their respective inheritances and have never had the idea of ​​integrating into one. It is also because the Jianmen needs to develop. It is difficult to accomplish only one Jianmen. With the help of Jiange, if Ligong Sword Courtyard and Langhuan Sword Lu can also rise in Jiangguo and Beiyan, Jianmen will be considered to have a real life to reappear.

It is bound to require at least one sword immortal to appear in Ligong Sword Courtyard and Langhuan Sword House.

There are still several gentlemen in the Palace Sword Courtyard, and fresh blood will be injected every year. On the contrary, the Langhuan Sword Lu in Beiyan is a little ruined. Apart from Xiao Zhinan, there is no second sword cultivator who can stand alone.

Xiao Zhinan also carries a heavy load of things.
