The strongest upgrade

Chapter 2 Adventure
Chapter 002 Adventure

As night fell, the world was shrouded in darkness, and the sky seemed very quiet.

There are many mountains below, and the night is not quiet, and the roar of monsters is often heard.

At night, Lin Niu didn't have much time to sleep, because Xiao Heng had to sleep even more at night, and fell asleep as soon as he fell asleep, and slept deeply.

Lin Niu sat vigilantly in front of the fire, looking around from time to time, for fear of encountering the monster again.

Whizzing
Suddenly, I heard a noise in the woods on the left. I stared and found that it was two wild dogs. Their faint green eyes were looking at this side, revealing a fierce light. However, the flashing flame made them feel uneasy. After a while, he quietly got into the woods and went away.

"Lighting a fire is still helpful." In the second half of the night, Lin Niu was still burning a raging fire. This fire did have a deterrent effect on monsters, but Lin Niu also knew that the animals that came that night were all ordinary animals, so they were afraid of fire. If it is a spirit beast, it will be very dangerous. A spirit beast will never be afraid of this kind of ordinary fire.

It was estimated that at two o'clock in the middle of the night, Xiao Heng finally woke up once, opened his eyes, and looked at Lin Niu.

As soon as Lin Niu found Xiao Heng woke up, he also looked at him, hoping that this guy would stop sleeping and let himself sleep for a while, but more, he hoped that this guy would help keep watch at night and deal with monsters. Come this night, come I pulled out monsters several times, and I was scared several times, and my nerves were always tense. If Xiao Heng helped to watch the night, I would feel more confident. powerful people.

"You don't look right, are you scared?" Xiao Heng smiled slightly.

Being despised by a child, Lin Niu hurriedly said, "It's windy, it's a bit cold at night."

"It doesn't seem to be windy." Xiao Heng waved his hand to feel the air.

This guy deliberately laughed at me, Lin Niu decided not to care about a child, and smiled, "It's not windy."

Xiao Heng stood up, walked over to add two sticks to the fire, didn't look at Lin Niu, only looked at Huo and said, "Jujian Sect is a big sect with strict hierarchy, from bottom to top, it is divided into Handyman Disciple, Inferior disciples, middle class, upper class, golden sword disciples, and then the high level of the sect, including the elders, sect masters, and founding elders. People without martial souls, entering this kind of big sect, ninety-nine out of ten can only become the lowest A level handyman, are you willing to be a handyman?"

"You know Jujianmen so well?" Lin Niu was really surprised.

I don't know anything about Jujianmen, and I asked about it in the town before I came, but no one in the town knows about Jujianmen like that, only two old men said that Jujianmen is in the deep mountains three hundred miles away .

As for where in the mountains, they don't know.

Lin Niu said happily: "Then do you know where the Giant Sword Gate is?"

Xiaoheng looked at Lin Niu seriously, and couldn't help but smile, "I see you are happy. It seems that you are willing to work as a handyman at Jujianmen."

Lin Niu nodded, with a sad look in his eyes, and said: "I have difficulties, and I must join Jujianmen. I will be satisfied if I can be a handyman."

"Yes, I also found that you seem to have something on your mind all the way. If you have any difficulties, can you tell me brother?" Xiaoheng asked with concern.

Tell you?You can't help me.Lin Niu said in his heart.Along the way, Lin Niu didn't intend to tell this unknown Xiao Heng about his affairs. As the saying goes, you can't have the heart of harming others, and you can't have the heart of defense.

Seeing that Lin Niu didn't speak, Xiao Heng was actually a little angry, pouted his lips and said, "Don't talk about falling down. I already treat you as a brother, and you still refuse to say it."

Seeing this guy's expression, Lin Niu felt that Xiao Heng was similar to his young age. Before, this guy had always been decisive, calm and mature, not like a child at all.

Lin Niu sighed softly, and said: "I have a younger sister who has always been weak and sickly. The disease is very strange. She took a lot of medicine, but she couldn't get better."

Xiao Heng next to him was no longer angry and listened carefully.

Lin Niu saw the figure and face of his younger sister, and was agitated for a moment, with tears in his eyes, "She is usually very good and likes to smile, but she is very painful when she is sick. Recently, she doesn't like to smile so much, and often cries sadly I know she is very desperate, maybe she feels that she won't live long, but I can only watch her suffer, I can't help her, I don't have gold coins, I can't buy better medicine, and I can't afford a better doctor to give her Heal the disease. But I can't give up, I heard that I can get a panacea if I join the Jujianmen, so I decided to try it."

Seeing that Xiaoheng next to him was still listening carefully, Lin Niu didn't know what this guy was thinking, and then ended the topic: "I heard that that kind of panacea is very powerful. Once a mortal takes it, all diseases will disappear."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Heng blinked his eyes to look at Lin Niu, and said in a crisp voice: "Is your sister beautiful?"

"I'll go..." Lin Niu was extremely depressed. It turned out that this guy had been thinking about this question all the time.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Xiao Heng asked again, as if he couldn't fall asleep without clarifying this question.

Lin Niu thought for a while, then nodded, "It's okay, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Heng smiled slightly, looking very happy, "I'll go to your house to meet her after that."

Hearing this, Lin Niu was not angry, and sighed, "In the future... I don't know if there will be a future. I have been away from home for eight days, I don't know how she is, and I don't know when I will reach the Jujian Gate. You Do you know the exact location of the giant sword gate?"

Xiao Heng didn't answer this question, but instead asked, "How many days do you think your sister can last? Have you heard from the doctor?"

Lin Niu hesitated, then nodded sadly, "Doctor Hu in the town said that it can only last for a month at most."

"It's only been a month? Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have a sister who is seriously ill, and I've used up all my pills, so I'd have saved one for you if I told you earlier." Xiaoheng searched his body for a while with both hands, as if looking for What is it, said angrily.

Lin Niu opened his mouth and didn't speak. When he rescued Xiao Heng yesterday, he saw Xiao Heng took out a handful of pills from his clothes and ate them. At that time, he wanted to ask Xiao Heng for a pill, but he didn't ask. Xiao Heng was seriously injured.

"There is no unparalleled road, I must join Jujianmen." Lin Niu clenched his fists.

Xiaoheng came over and looked at the box, "You want this gold because of your sister, right?"

Lin Niu didn't speak, but nodded.

It was late at night, and Xiao Heng fell asleep again.

Glancing at Xiao Heng who was already sleeping, Lin Niu suddenly remembered a question he wanted to ask him yesterday, why didn't this guy bury his dead third grandfather?And his mother?
The night was finally spent safely. At dawn, the two ate some dry food brought by the forest cattle, and started climbing again. The road was much narrower than the road behind.

As he walked, Xiao Heng glanced at the forest on the left, his brows slightly frowned.

Lin Niu strode forward, his eyes suddenly brightened, "Is there a post in front?"

The two rested for a while at the station, and Lin Niu spent a few gold coins to buy some food, then left the station and continued on.This post station is equivalent to a post station, responsible for sending letters and items.

Entering the deep mountain path again, Lin Niu originally wanted to take the main road, but this path is obviously closer and can save a lot of time.

Suddenly a figure flashed, and ten meters away, a man wearing a bamboo hat flashed out from the forest on the left, with a purple-black face and fierce eyes, holding a broad-back machete with a sharp blade in his right hand.

As soon as Lin Niu saw this man's expression, he knew that the man was not kind.

The man was followed by two tall and strong black dogs. At this time, they roared fiercely and jumped out.

It's a hunting dog, Lin Niu thought in his heart, this person is a hunter, Xiao Heng really guessed it, and indeed a hunter came to make trouble.

"Hand over the gold, and spare your lives!" The man with a dark purple face said in a gloomy voice.

"Gold?" Sure enough, he was staring at his box of gold, Lin Niu couldn't help but looked at Xiao Heng, and said in his heart, this time it's up to you, show off your martial soul soon.

Xiaoheng smiled slightly at Lin Niu, but said nothing.

Lin Niu quickly pointed out: "You come to deal with this person, use your martial soul."

"You should go first." Xiao Heng showed a nervous look, and took a step back, as if he couldn't beat the purple-black-faced hunter.

Lin Niu said anxiously: "How can I beat him? Don't you have a martial soul? Show it quickly, don't be afraid, I don't think this hunter is necessarily stronger than you."

Xiao Heng waved his hands and shook his head, "I really dare not go up, you go first."

The hunter had already approached five meters away, with an impatient expression on his face, he said sharply: "Why are you arguing, are you annoying? It doesn't matter whoever comes first, there is only one death word, do you know my strength? Have a look, have you seen this stone?"

The purple-black hunter held a knife in his right hand, as if he wanted to split the big rock.

The stone is a full two meters thick, growing in the mountain, and looks very hard.

Unexpectedly, the hunter held the knife in his left hand and clenched his right hand into a fist. Suddenly, a layer of purple-red brilliance appeared in that hand. With a bang punch, a big hole was opened, and stone fragments flew across.

Lin Niu and Xiao Heng were so surprised that they opened their mouths and couldn't speak.

The hunter held the knife in his right hand again, and proudly said: "How? I am so powerful, you still dare to resist? Hurry up and honestly hand over the gold, I don't have time to dawdle with you, I have followed you all day and night, my family still If something happens, hurry up."

He actually followed us for a day and a night. This hunter is really insidious. Lin Niu looked at the broken boulder and then at Xiao Heng. He felt that Xiao Heng couldn't beat the hunter, so he might as well hand over the gold, as the saying goes Well said, all the money will come back.

Before deciding to hand over the gold, Lin Niu still wanted to ask Xiao Heng if he dared to resist, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Heng, are you really not going to make a move?"

Xiao Heng hurriedly shook his head, "I can't beat him. His strength should be at the elementary level of a martial artist. Have you seen the purple-red light on his fist? I haven't even cultivated to that level."

Since this is the case, there is no need to resist, it is important to hand over the gold to save your life. Although Lin Niu is unwilling to hand over the gold, once the decision is made, he will act decisively and throw the box forward as he spoke.

嗖

The hunter swung his left hand, and an invisible force firmly caught the box.

Lin Niu thought that the box would fall on the ground. After all, he didn't throw it too far. The hunter caught it with one hand after two meters away. He has such great strength. Lin Niu thinks it should be a kind of spiritual power. Spiritual power.

The power of ordinary mortals is just the most instinctive physical power of the human body, which is too far behind spiritual power.

It is impossible to release physical strength, physical strength cannot be released outside the body, and even a few centimeters away cannot break a piece of paper, because physical strength cannot be released outside.

It must be the effect of spiritual power to be able to catch the box after a few meters away.

Lin Niu also wanted to have such strength in his heart.

"You guys are acquainted." The purple-black hunter smiled in satisfaction.

Seeing the hunter still standing still, Lin Niu and Xiao Heng looked at each other, feeling the danger. Could it be that the hunter still wants to kill someone?
The hunter chuckled, "Are you scared? According to the rules in the past, I was going to kill you. But you are a warrior. It's a bit troublesome for me to kill you. It's a waste of my time."

The latter sentence was addressed to Xiao Heng. After Lin Niu heard it, he immediately understood why the hunter didn't do anything. It turned out that he had something to do and didn't want to spend too much time here.

The hunter turned to look at Lin Niu, and smiled sarcastically, "You are not a martial artist, you don't even have a martial soul, you are still a child, you are so bold, you dare to go this way. I will let you go today Guy, if you are so bold in the future, I’m afraid you won’t know how to die. If you don’t follow the avenue, take the path, what is it if you don’t seek death?”

Lin Niu breathed a sigh of relief, but being ridiculed by this enemy, he couldn't help bursting into anger, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Talking about the hunter hugging the box, he laughed wildly and left.

Xiao Heng spat at the back, and said angrily: "This guy is so arrogant, I almost couldn't help but strike."

Lin Niu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Then why don't you fight? Try a fight, maybe you can win."

Xiaoheng looked at Lin Niu in a blink of an eye, shook his head for a while, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and said: "I am the only one in my family. I can't take too many risks in anything. If I am not sure, the most important thing is to save my life."

Lin Niu suddenly understood, it turned out that Xiao Heng thought so in his heart.

He's the only one in his family?It's really pitiful when you think about it, but I still insist on urging him to help deal with the hunter.

Lin Niu came over and patted Xiao Heng on the shoulder, comforting him: "You are right, there will be danger in the future, don't take any risks, let me handle it."

Seeing a mortal without a martial spirit say this to him, Xiao Heng had a strange expression on his face, but then nodded and smiled, it was a very sincere smile, without a trace of irony.

The two started to move forward again.

Xiaoheng suddenly pointed to a direction on the right, and said, "The Jujian Gate is in this direction. If we go this way, we will have to walk for two months to get there. I know where the Jujian Gate is."

"You know? That's great. What? It will take two months to arrive?" Lin Niu was in mixed moods, happy at times, disappointed and anxious at other times.

Xiao Heng said: "If you get a carriage, you can get there in ten days."

Yes, walking on two feet is too slow. In this barren mountain, it is not bad to be able to walk to the Jujian Gate for two months. If you walk alone, you may not be able to find the Jujian Gate in a year. Lin Niu is in a mood It's complicated. Fortunately, I met this Xiaoheng, but my sister's illness can't wait so long, but where can I get a carriage?

Xiaoheng walked for a while and sat down on the grass, about to speak.

Lin Niu smiled and said, "You want to sleep again, don't you? You just sleep, and I will protect you."

Xiao Heng smiled slightly, closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

After sleeping for about half an hour, he woke up and said, "Are you all right?"

Lin Niu saw the panic on Xiao Heng's face, and quickly said, "It's all right, everything is safe."

"No monsters coming?" Xiao Heng looked around and smiled, "So it was a dream, I dreamed that we were surrounded by a group of monsters."

The two continued to move forward, passed the mountain, and came to a road. They saw a ruined temple. They went in and turned around, and found blood in the grass on the left.

After coming to the temple to sit and rest, Xiaoheng said: "The selection of newcomers by Jujianmen is very cruel. Each group of ten people will fight in a scuffle. Only the last one alive will be eligible to join Jujianmen."

It was the first time Lin Niu heard about it, and he felt shocked, ten people fighting in a melee?Is it a life and death battle?

Xiaoheng thought that Lin Niu didn't believe it, and explained: "Ten people fight in a melee. This is a battle of life and death. There is no choice. If you don't want to fight, you have to fight, because you only have two choices when you enter, or you will be the last one." A living person, or one of the nine dead."

"It's too cruel!" Lin Niu said in shock.

Seeing that Xiao Heng stopped talking, Lin Niu hurriedly said: "Tell me more specifically, why does Jujianmen have such regulations? If you don't fight anymore, why can't you quit? Isn't it too inhumane?"

Xiao Heng put his index finger on his mouth: "Shh." Then he pointed to the left.

"Ah..." There was a faint scream from the left.

Roar... Roar...

There was another roar of a beast, and Lin Niu could understand that it was the roar of a tiger. It seemed that someone was fighting with a tiger outside.

When there was no sound outside, the two hurriedly went out to check, and found a lot of blood in the grass, but there were no people or tigers.
