Chapter 2: The Quicksand River ()

More than two years passed quickly, and Fu Lou was almost nine years old. Because he insisted on practicing Shaoyang Gong, Fu Lou looked like a twelve or thirteen-year-old child at this moment, and he didn't look like a little baby who was only nine years old at all.

Over the past two years, Fu Lou has made great progress in both physical fitness, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially in the guqin, and has extraordinary understanding. In many aspects, even Fu Lou's grandfather sighed. Therefore, his grandfather often sighed secretly: "It's really awesome for the younger generation, just like the quicksand river water, pushing waves one wave after another, and pushing waves the previous waves..."

Early this morning, Fu Lou practiced Shaoyang Gong in the woods by the river as usual. However, at this time, it was a little different from the practices he practiced two years ago. Now, when Fu Lou practiced Shaoyang Gong, he always wore a mail vest weighing ten kilograms, and even his arms and calves were tied with iron tiles, which combined with a load of thirty kilograms. These were specially added to him by Fu Lou's father, and it was also a necessary requirement for the second stage of practicing Shaoyang Gong.

After Fu Lou finished practicing the necessary homework every day, just as he turned around and was about to go home, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of "Dingdang, Dingdang" from the river, and a shout of gold and iron fighting, as if someone was fighting by the river.

Fu Lou was young and curious. He couldn't help but want to run over and take a look, but he was a little scared.

He thought about it, gently took off his mail vest and iron tiles and placed it on the ground, then tiptoed on the back of the roots, stepped on the grass with a slight fragrance and covered with morning dew, and tiptoed over from the woods to the riverside. Along the way, he cleverly avoided all kinds of branches growing everywhere, and made almost no sound. Fulou was able to be so light, which was closely related to his diligent practice of Shaoyang skills in recent years.

Just as he was about to pass through the woods, Fu Lou suddenly stopped, his mouth wide and round, as if he could swallow an egg. His eyes were also round, staring at the riverside, and his face was full of surprise. At this time, he had completely forgotten his fear.

It turned out that in the faint morning light, he saw a golden sword and a black stick rolling in the air and fighting continuously from the gaps of the trees, making a rapid "jingle" sound, like a rain falling on the plate. He also saw a man and a woman standing in front of the river, each of whom was holding hands like a tall stone statue worshipped at the entrance of the village.

Fu Lou didn't know why the golden sword and the black stick always floated in the air and hit each other without falling down. Such a strange thing is one of the most strange things that Fu Lou has seen so far.

From the attack directions of the golden sword and the black stick in the air, it can be seen that the golden sword belongs to the woman, while the black stick belongs to the man.

The one who manipulated the golden sword was a beautiful girl in green dress with a goose face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and cherry mouth. She was very handsome. But at this moment, her pretty face was tightened and pointed to a fishy red color, obviously because of the extreme anger in her heart. Her pretty face frowned and turned pale white, and the muscles on her face were whispering slightly, which looked a little scary. It was probably caused by the pain.

At first glance, Fu Lou saw that the girl in green had changed her expression and couldn't help but feel a little scared inside. He hurriedly looked away and looked at the man. When Fu Lou looked at him, he felt as if he had encountered cold ice. He couldn't help but shivered, and he had goose bumps all over his body, feeling cold.

I saw that the black stick was a middle-aged man wearing a black robe. He looked very handsome, but his eyes were filled with cold light and his lips were slightly tilted, making his whole face look so sinister and cold.

The man and the woman fought each other fiercely for about half an hour. For a while, in the air, the green light was sometimes bright and the black light was sometimes radiant, intertwining into a gorgeous picture.

Suddenly, the girl in green trembled, and even the golden sword in the air shook for a while. Fu Lou couldn't understand for a moment.

"Evil thief, you!..." The girl in green said in surprise. It was obvious that she accidentally fell into the plot of the middle-aged man in black.

"Hehe... girl, you have been hit by the ice sha. If you move your true qi arbitrarily, the loss of the true qi will be accelerated. As long as you hand over the five pearls to the pearl, you will drive out the ice sha for you. Otherwise, if you delay for a while, you may lose your body and lose your jade. The pearl will not be the same at that time. Tsk tsk... What a pity! It's such a beautiful beauty." The middle-aged man in black laughed coldly, his laughter as if the night owls were screaming, which made the listener feel a chill again.

"Evil thief, don't be too proud too early! Do you think this little cold can do anything to me? You dream!" The girl in green said, taking out a pill from her waist with her left hand and quickly stuffing the pill into Cherry's mouth. After a while, the girl in green's miserable white face immediately turned white and red, and it was obvious that the cold had completely resolved.

"The elixirs of noble schools are really extraordinary, and they are worthy of being the alchemy sect." Seeing this, the middle-aged man in black knew that Han Bing Sha could not do anything to the other party, so he took his right hand and touched it on his waist, and a jade box appeared in his hand. Then he whispered, muttering something, saying something that Fu Lou couldn't understand.

Suddenly, a pointed-headed snake with ink and pointed tongue, and a "huh" sound shot out from the box on the palm of the middle-aged man in black, and flew quickly towards the girl in green, as fast as lightning, making people unable to dodge. The little snake instantly bit the left calf of the girl in green, and then quickly bounced back into the box in the hand of the middle-aged man in black. All this happened in just a few blinks.

The girl in green was startled after being bitten and said sternly: "Evil thief! You... you actually raise a vicious thing like the Mo Bing Snake. If your sect knows, you will definitely spare you."

The middle-aged man in black did not comment, his expression remained unchanged, and he still smiled sinisterly.

After saying that, the girl in green took out a pill from her waist, stuffed it into her mouth, and swallowed it. However, the snake venom still seemed to have not been relieved, and the green energy began to spread along her left calf to her whole body. Soon, the girl in green began to stiffen her lower body, and she sat on the ground with a "thump".

The middle-aged man in black carefully took back the jade box containing the Mo Bing Snake, then took out a bottle of pills and held it in his right palm, and said with a righteous look: "This is the antidote for Mo Bing Snake. As long as you hand over the five pearls to him, he swears that he will detoxify you and will never break his promise, otherwise he will be struck by lightning."

Of course, the girl in green didn't know that the middle-aged man in black had another idea in his mind: "I sacrificed this snake, of course I won't let you go back. The snake venom of this black ice snake is so jealous that I have nothing to solve. Where can I get the antidote? Hehe, let's see if you die."

The girl in green stared at the middle-aged man in black with a look, and the anger in her eyes seemed to burn the other person. Then she gritted her silver teeth and said unwillingly: "Okay! I believe you this time. If you break your promise, I will not spare you even if I become a ghost. Take it." After saying that, she took out a black box from her waist with a look of reluctance, then hesitated for a moment and threw it at the middle-aged man in black with a throw.

The middle-aged man in black reached out to take the black box flying over, looked carefully, and looked at the girl in green with some confusion, and was puzzled. He just thought about testing her and stabilizing her, afraid that she would jump over the wall if she was anxious, but he didn't expect that she would change her mind so quickly and wanted to hand over the Five Spirits Beads to himself for the antidote. But he looked left and right, but he could not see anything unusual about the girl in green. Could it be that she was really willing to give up the beads because she was facing a life crisis?

The middle-aged man in black then thought again, anyway, she was infected with her own snake venom and needed her own antidote to eliminate the snake venom. I wonder if she couldn't play any tricks. Let's first see if there were five pearls in this box. The greed in his heart made him eager to determine immediately whether there were pearls in this box.

So the middle-aged man in black carefully opened the lid, and at this moment, he did not see a mysterious smile on the corner of the girl in green.

Suddenly, the black box made a sharp "whoosh" sound, and there was a slight sound of a spring. Almost at the same time, a "bang" sound came, and a bloody flower splashed on the left chest of the middle-aged man in black. The middle-aged man in black also screamed at this time: "The God-Destroying Crossbow! I am the dead of heaven! The evil woman... I hate it so much..." Then he fell to the ground with a loud bang, raised a wave of dust, and his blood-stained body twitched on the ground for a while and stopped moving. A pool of scarlet blood appeared on the ground for a while.

With a "bang", the black box also came out of his hand and fell to the ground.

Fu Lou looked closely and saw a bloody hole in the middle-aged man in black showing his left chest. His heart was broken through his front chest and his heart seemed to be unable to survive. His black stick also fell from the air because he lost control and fell into a pile of rocks and weeds.

The girl in green smiled in her heart, and her laughter was a little strange. She proudly said to the middle-aged man in black who was hiding on the ground: "No matter how cunning you are, you are no match for me, hehe! In the end, I drank my foot wash water." Then she burst into sharp laughter.

Then, the girl in green made a move in the air with her left hand, and the flying sword floating in the air slowly flew into the small bag around her waist, flashing and disappearing, which was very magical. Then, the girl in green made her support to stand up with her hands, but because she was deeply poisoned and her lower body was already stiff. She tried several times but didn't stand up, so she had to do it.

In desperation, the girl in green reached out to the air and grabbed the middle-aged man in black several times. Suddenly her face changed. Her struggle just now, she had to get up and consume a lot of true energy. It was extremely bad for her at this moment. At this moment, her true energy was running difficult, and it was difficult to get the antidote back.

At this moment, Fu Lou, who was hiding behind a big tree beside the woods, saw the tragic situation of the man in black before his death, held back the fear in his heart for a while. Finally, he couldn't help but scream: "Oh!" Then he immediately woke up, hurriedly stretched out his left hand to cover his mouth, his eyes were filled with fear, and he said in his heart: "This is bad..."
