Looking at the embarrassed Hei Dan, Li Yan felt mixed.
After his grandfather passed away, he left Li Family Fortress at night, perhaps in order to avoid the sad place and settle matters at home.
Wandering around the world, half a year has passed before I knew it.
After all, I have lived there for many years, so it would be a lie to say that I don't miss it.
Occasionally, he would dream about the old man roaring Qin opera under the sunset, waiting for his return.
When I woke up, I was full of tears.
Hei Dan, his playmate, may be the only person he is close to in Li Family Fortress.
When I left, I didn't bother to say goodbye, and I never thought I'd see you again like this.
"Yan...Yan-ge, wuwu..."
This kid was obviously frightened. It took him a long time to recognize Li Yan and he couldn't even speak clearly.
"Don't be afraid, we'll talk about it later."
Li Yan has a murderous look in his eyes.
While he was talking, three men were chasing him angrily. They had dragons and tigers tattooed on their chests and daggers on their waists. The people along the way were so frightened that they scattered.
"Hey, you are such a coward, get out of here!"
The man in the lead cursed, jumped up quickly, raised his right foot, and was about to kick Li Yan in the back.
Li Yan pulled Hei Dan, then turned sideways and swept his legs.
Be merciless and use Hidden Strength directly.
Click!
With a scream, the man fell directly to the ground, his face covered with blood, but he ignored it, and instead hugged his legs and screamed and cursed, "I'm such a stinky turtle grandson..."
His left calf had been directly broken, the bone stubble was exposed, and the blood stained the surrounding snow red.
"Kill him!"
The few remaining men were all desperadoes. They were not afraid when they saw this, but instead drew their daggers and rushed towards them one by one.
They saw Li Yan taking action and it was known that he was a member of the Jianghu.
The two of them were luring the enemy in front, and when they were approaching Li Yan, they suddenly rolled sideways at the same time, went around to the side, and rushed from both sides with daggers in their hands.
At the same time, the person following behind had taken off the cloth bag from his waist, opened it and shook it suddenly.
Poof!
White lime was sprinkled all over his head and face.
The tacit understanding of cooperation is obvious, and it is obvious that he often deceives people.
But Li Yan had Divine Ability, so naturally he had already noticed it. He used Red Fist to hit Silk Winding Hand on one side of his body, grabbed the wrist of the person holding the blade, and twisted it with his backhand.
This is how to take Red Fist Golden Thread Entangling Wrist.
Red Fist is good at tricky attacks, and his grappling skills are naturally good.
Li Yan just twisted it slightly, and the man's joints felt painful. Not only did he drop the dagger, but he also screamed and turned sideways, blocking Li Yan.
Poof!
Li Yan moved so fast that the person attacking from the other side didn't even have time to stop, and stabbed his companion in the back with a single knife.
He panicked, and just as he was about to pull out the dagger, white lime powder fell down, turning his and his companion's backs white.
And Li Yan is another kick into the wind.
Bang!
The two men were kicked away, and together with their companions who were sprinkling lime behind them, they fell to the ground, screaming in agony.
"Be careful, it's a tough idea!"
Four or five more people were chasing him on the street.
This group of people is usually used to being violent. When they see their companions being beaten, they will curse and rush over, hoping to win by relying on their large number of people.
"Everyone stop it!"
At this moment, a cold sound came from behind.
The men all stopped, but their faces were full of fierceness. They held daggers and hatchets and surrounded Li Yan and Hei Dan.
"Brother Guo, he is a practicing master!"
"Xiao Liu They were destroyed, Brother Guo destroyed him!"
The men yelled and cursed angrily, and the people on the street immediately dispersed.
Of course, Divine Land people have enjoyed watching the excitement since ancient times. Some people don't even bother to eat just to watch the excitement, let alone a scene like this.
Tens of meters away, people on three floors inside and three floors outside were immediately surrounded.
"Yo, the fight started!"
"It's the person from Fire Bear Gang..."
"Hero, take action quickly. Killing one of them is enough!"
There is a meddler who stands in the crowd and makes noise.
Li Yan didn't pay attention, but narrowed his eyes slightly and looked to the opposite side.
It's the person from Fire Bear Gang...
He had a guess in his mind, but hearing the noise from people outside made him more certain.
The other men have at most practiced boxing and kicking for a few days. They are better than the Xianyang City gang, but they are not much better. They can do it with one hand.
Only the leader in the center is a difficult character.
The other party is tall and thin. No matter how you look at it, he is not on the same level as the fat or strong men around him.
But in the world of martial arts, we are afraid of this kind of anomaly.
The elderly, children, and women may seem weak, but as long as they can hang out in the world, they must have one or two unique skills.
The same goes for this guy.
Hanging Mandarin Duck Blades around his waist, he stood casually, his body slightly bent, his feet uneven, his arms raised, and his palms hanging above the handle of the knife.
This is a posture only seen by a veteran swordsman.
"Shut up, everyone!"
He roared angrily, stopping the men around him from shouting.
There was a young boy behind him who quickly stepped forward and whispered:
"Brother Guo, this is Li Yan."
Guo Ai narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a fierce look, and hummed four words between his teeth, "Hey, 'Young Hero'..."
When people in the world of martial arts encounter this kind of situation, they have to secretly say harsh words to each other, and then weigh each other.
But Li Yan was too lazy to talk, and patted Hei Dan on the shoulder, "Hei Dan, don't be afraid, who hit you?"
However, at this time, Hei Dan didn't care about venting his anger at all. Instead, he directly pulled Li Yan's sleeves and begged, "Yan-ge, Yan-ge, I'm fine, please save my uncle!"
"Uncle?"
Li Yan frowned, then looked to the other side, "Where is he? Let him go first, and I will argue with you later."
"Oh, what a loud tone!"
The tall and thin man Guo Ai originally wanted to say to mind his own business, but before he could say anything, he was annoyed by Li Yan's words, "Boy, tell me, what if we don't let you go?"
Li Yan glanced lightly, "Simple."
"I am alive and well, and I am not missing any arms or legs. I can calm down and talk to you about compensation."
"If something happens to a person, he can no longer be kind!"
Guo Ai also had a tough temper, and sneered, "Male Gobi, people have already been killed, I want to see how you want to play!"
"Ah?!"
Hei Dan fell to the ground as if struck by lightning.
And Li Yan also had a murderous aura on his body, "Want to see it? It's easy to tell!"
"Brother Guo, don't do it!"
At this moment, another man rushed in from outside, came to the side and whispered, "Brother Guo, the gang leader asked you not to cause trouble, find someone else, let them go, and wait until the matter is over before worrying about it."
Guo Ai took a deep breath.
He also regained his composure at this time, remembering that there were important matters in the gang, looked at Li Yan, pointed with a sneer, turned around and left.
"Stop!"
Li Yan said coldly, "The matter is not over yet. You are not going up or down. Who the hell let you go?"
When Guo Ai heard this, he turned around slowly and stared at Li Yan in disbelief, "Boy, I won't care about you today. Do you really want to die?"
"Seeking death?"
Li Yan smiled, his eyes getting colder and colder, "It seems that not enough of you died that night."
"Eight Road Plum Blossom Saber is quite famous, but I don't know who's knife is faster compared to you or Yao San?"
He looked at the opponent's posture, and now he remembered that it was a niche sharp knife on Guanzhong Road. He heard that it originated from Ezhou, and the people who used it were all masters.
Guo Ai Upon hearing this, his eyes gradually became solemn.
On the night of the fight, he had other important matters and didn't go there, but he knew exactly how many people in the gang had died.
The funeral expenses alone cost a lot.
The funeral process lasted for half a month.
But according to people in the gang, the person who took action at that time was a master of Daoism. He was extremely cruel and vicious, and no one noticed him even when he was lurking next to the gang leader.
Xiong BaoDong is arrogant by nature, so he endured this tone of voice, firstly because of the rules agreed before the fight, and secondly because he was afraid of this elusive master.
As for Yao San, he is the guard of the gang leader, and he works alone in private to do some unflattering things.
His skills are only a little bit worse than his.
Rumor has it that he died at the hands of this kid Sleeve Blade.
Sleeve Blade?
He just wanted to laugh.
This kind of shady thing can only fool a layman.
The boy in front of him relied on nothing more than those two Xuanmen masters.
But he didn't dare not listen to what Xiong BaoDong said.
If something really goes wrong, I'm afraid my life will be in danger...
"Okay, okay!"
Thinking of this, Guo Ai gave a thumbs up, "You are so tough, I hope you can be so tough when we meet again!"
After that, he took off a bag from his waist and threw it out, "It's okay, it's just a scratch on the skin, two hundred taels is enough!"
"Let's go!"
Although he was holding back his anger, he quickly turned around and left.
"Fire Bear Gang actually shrunk?"
"We've encountered a tough situation, but you don't know that this Young Hero Li in front of you just made them suffer..."
"Hey, you are so powerful, you don't look like you at such a young age."
"If you are able, I will go and get the head of Xiong BaoDong tonight!"
The good-hearted people in the crowd started to make noise again.
With Fire Bear Gang's vicious reputation, ordinary people couldn't even hide. They could only stand aside and watch the excitement, and they wouldn't talk too much.
These hecklers are all second-rate people on the street, stealing chickens and dogs, kicking in widows' doors, bad and pus-producing ones.
Li Yan glanced coldly, grabbed two stones from the ground, flicked his wrist, and whizzed out.
"Ouch!"
"Ouch!"
In the crowd, two people fell to the ground with their mouths full of blood.
When people around saw it, they burst into laughter.
They dare not make fun of Fire Bear Gang.
But this kind of second-rate guy will be fine even if he is caught and beaten.
Li Yan ignored it, picked up Hei Dan and left...
"Right here!"
Following Hei Dan, the two turned into an alley, walked another ten meters, and entered the courtyard on the right.
This is a small, ordinary house.
The courtyard was in a mess and a mess.
As soon as Li Yan entered, he frowned and covered his nose.
Without him, this place really stinks!
On the walls, dried skins of various sizes were hung, including wolf skins, dog skins, donkey and horse skins, as well as weasel skins and mouse skins.
The courtyard is full of leatherworking tools, but they have all been knocked over.
"Uncle! Uncle!"
Hei Dan rushed into the hut with a worried face and saw an old man leaning against the wall with a bruised nose and swollen face, covering his mouth and sighing.
Seeing Hei Dan, he quickly struggled to get up and said anxiously, "What are you doing back here? Run quickly!"
"Master, don't worry..."
Hei Dan Seeing that the master was fine, he muttered and told what happened just now, which comforted him for a while.
Li Yan nodded secretly in his heart after seeing it.
He had asked Hei Dan the reason on the way.
It turned out that after he left, Hei Dan finally couldn't bear the loneliness and had a big quarrel with his father, complaining that he didn't want to farm and wanted to go out to learn a trade.
Hei Dan's father couldn't resist, so he had to agree.
It just so happened that his uncle was working as a cobbler at Chang'an City, so Hei Dan also left his hometown and even arrived at Chang'an earlier than Li Yan.
Learning a craft is not a leisurely activity.
Hei Dan wakes up early and stays late every day. In addition to learning the craft from his uncle, he also has to work with him every day to maintain the business of the small shop.
Going out early and coming back late, I was so busy that I didn't even touch the ground with my heels. Who would have known that Li Yan had also arrived at Chang'an.
"Young Hero Li, thank you."
Uncle Hei Dan stood up and held his hands tremblingly.
He is not like a silly kid like Hei Dan. He is not only Xuan Gate People, but also half a Jianghu person. He has naturally heard of Li Yan.
Unexpectedly, he and his stupid nephew actually have an old relationship.
"No need to be polite, let's find a place to talk first."
Li Yan was already so dizzy at this time that he pinched his nose and spoke loudly without any regard for etiquette.
There is a correspondence between yin and yang in the world.
As he built the building, Olfactory Mystical Power continued to grow stronger and became more and more sensitive to smells.
Stink is his current weakness.
The smell in this yard is really unbearable.
"It's also an unforeseen disaster..."
In the private room of the tavern, Uncle Hei Dan took a sip of wine and sighed, "Fire Bear Gang's people want to ask me to make leather."
Li Yan sneered, "If you ask a craftsman to take action, you have to force yourself to do it. Fire Bear Gang is really domineering!"
"No."
Uncle Hei Dan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The price offered by the other party is quite appropriate, but something happened to me and there is nothing I can do to make money."
Li Yan asked, "What happened?"
Uncle Hei Dan was silent, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid you won't believe it even if I tell you."
"I've offended Demon Immortal!"
"I learned this skill from the Hua County shadow puppet troupe. Then by chance, I got through Ear Mystical Power and could hear the words of ghosts and gods."
"Originally, the master taught me ordinary craftsmanship. That day, the team members went out to pick up work, and I was drunk alone. I vaguely heard a voice saying that they wanted to teach me how to make Spirit Hide."
Li Yan was curious, "What is Spirit Hide?"
The old man took a sip of wine and said, "The so-called Spirit Hide is an animal skin that has spirituality. These things will remain resentful after death and often cause trouble."
"The craftsmen who can make Spirit Hide will know how to suppress and slowly eliminate the resentment without damaging its spirituality. Only the leather produced can be used to refine magic weapons.
I was also brave at the time. Following the instructions of the voice, I caught a spiritual mouse. I also took advantage of the thunder from the sky to strike the temple and hacked to death a Old Python whose Daoism had been suppressed.
Under the guidance of that voice, I learned to make Spirit Hide step by step, and even made a Puppet Show Villain out of leather, but it ended up causing trouble.
That thing actually possessed the body of the shadow puppet, causing trouble every night and sucking the energy of the team members.
I was scared, so I took the opportunity to tell the class teacher secretly.
The leader of the class found a mysterious man, took the thing into custody, and suppressed it under a dry well in an old temple. However, I was kicked out because I caused trouble.
Later, I came to Chang'an, and with this craft, I could make a fortune..."
At this point, his eyes were full of fear, and he said in a trembling voice, "I didn't expect that after so many years, that thing would escape from its trap and possess someone. Come to Chang'an to find me."
"How dare this thing come Chang'an?"
Li Yan Listen, I feel something is wrong for no reason.
"Hmm."
The old man swallowed, "He knew everything about that time, and he even put a poisonous curse on me. Not only did he take away my property, he also made me swear an oath."
"From now on, you can no longer use the Spirit Hide technique!"
