Sword rises in the storm

Dusty Sand Town, thousands of miles away from the capital of the Heavenly Wind Country, used to be a relatively prosperous area, but because of the spread of a wisp of sword qi in the sword ruins, the people in the town left here one after another.

The town is now rarely inhabited, and a young man in a black robe with a hidden face stands out as he walks through the streets of the town. Naturally, this person is Gu Hengsheng.

Gu Hengsheng was recognized by his old man, so naturally he didn't waste any more time, and then quietly left Kyoto.

After several days of hurrying, Gu Hengsheng came to the dust and sand town closest to the Three Thousand Miles Sword Ruins.

In order to hide his appearance and identity, Gu Hengsheng was wearing a loose black robe, and his whole person's aura looked extremely gloomy.

"It's just that in the dust and sand town close to the sword ruins, you can clearly feel the edge of the sword qi. Gu Hengsheng looked at the uninhabited streets around him vigilantly, and muttered to himself: "It is rumored that the sword cultivation can swing three thousand miles of sword qi with one sword, I'm afraid...... There is a high probability that he has not only touched the Heavenly Xuan Realm, but has even entered the Heavenly Xuan Realm. Rao

was based on Gu Heng's cultivation and temperament in his previous life, and in the face of this overwhelming suppressive sword qi, he couldn't help frowning.

After walking for a while, Gu Hengsheng stopped walking, because there was a restaurant in front of him that was rising with smoke. In this regard, Gu Hengsheng turned his eyes curiously: "In this rare and uninhabited place in Dusty Sand Town, there is actually a tavern, which is a bit strange.

Seeing that the sky was gradually sinking down, Gu Hengsheng was tired of rushing around, but he was a little tired.

So, Gu Hengsheng pondered vigilantly for a while, then stepped into the door of the restaurant and did not rush forward.

When Gu Hengsheng stepped into the restaurant, he was greeted by three or five sparse wooden tables and a gray-haired old man.

The old man was dressed in a coarse linen robe, his face was loose and wrinkled, his messy hair was already snow-white and black, and his slightly sunken pupils made people feel a little palpitation.

In the entire hall of the restaurant, there seems to be only this old man, which is a little desolate.

However, what surprised Gu Hengsheng was not that there was no one in the restaurant, but that the old man was doing a strange thing - he was holding a piece of black iron thirty centimeters wide and constantly polishing it.

The grinding sound of the second pull and pull came into Gu Hengsheng's ears one after another, making him tense his mind.

"Grandpa, it's a guest, why are you still stunned there?

At this moment, with a crisp voice, a girl rushed out of the backyard of the restaurant.

When the old man heard the sound, he was not moved at all, and continued to nest in the corner of the restaurant without raising his head, quietly polishing a piece of heavy iron in his hand. It's as if everything in this world has nothing to do with him, only the black iron in his hand.

The girl's face is slightly yellow, and her facial features are not exquisite, but she has an indescribable temperament that people dare not underestimate.

"Childe, what do you need?" The girl was wearing a pale white cloth dress, she hurriedly walked towards Gu Hengsheng and said with a slight smile.

Gu Hengsheng looked at the strange old man and the girl in front of him quietly, and said lightly with a cold face: "Just serve some wine and food, and I want to stay overnight, I don't know if it's okay?"

"Of course it's okay, son, you wait a while, I'll go and prepare some food and drinks for you, and by the way, I will help you clean a first-class guest room." The girl hurriedly responded with a chuckle, a pair of ethereal eyes narrowing slightly.

Gu Hengsheng nodded and slowly sat down next to a table and chair.

Sinking together, the old man seemed to have entered the realm of selflessness, and the rhythm of polishing the heavy iron in his hand carried an indescribable charm. Gu Hengsheng couldn't see through this, and just quietly watched the old man's every move.

After a while, the girl quickly took some wine and food, interrupting Gu Hengsheng's mood of watching the old man sharpen iron: "Son, you still have to take care of the wine and food in the vulgar place, you use it slowly." "

Thank you, girl. Gu Hengsheng still maintained a cold look and nodded slightly.

With Gu Hengsheng's vast knowledge, he naturally knew that this wine and food were clean, so he also ate it slowly with confidence.

Soon, the sky gradually darkened, and the restaurant girl had already vacated a clean room and invited Gu Hengsheng in.

Of course, Gu Hengsheng didn't know how to eat the overlord meal, and directly gave the girl ten taels of silver, which made the girl even happier, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was almost grinning to her eyebrows.

After taking the silver, the girl said a lot to Gu Hengsheng very enthusiastically.

Naturally, Gu Hengsheng also learned the girl's name. Wen Ruomei is the name of the girl in the restaurant, and the old man who grinds iron is Wen Ruomei's grandfather. According to Wen Ruomei, she and her grandfather depended on each other for their lives, and when they were exiled to Dusty Sand Town ten years ago, they cleaned up the restaurant to make a living.

Although there are few people living in Dusty Sand, there are people who frequent it. After all, Dusty Sand Town is the closest to the Sword Ruins, and many people are eager to get some opportunities from the Sword Ruins.

Therefore, Wen Ruomei opened this small restaurant in Dusty Sand, and the occasional income of silver was enough for her and her grandfather to fill their stomachs.

After chatting casually, Gu Hengsheng didn't have much interest, turned around and stepped into the guest room, closing the doors and windows.

"This place...... It's really funny. Gu Hengsheng sat cross-legged on the bed, a meaningful smile appeared slightly on the corner of his mouth, and then he began to draw qi into his pulse, ready to prepare well before stepping into the sword ruins.

With one exhale and one inhalation, the Xuan Qi slowly flowed to all parts of his body along Gu Hengsheng's meridians.

Slowly, Gu Hengsheng's momentum became stronger and stronger.

Boom!

A muffled snort that could only be heard by Gu Hengsheng himself, Gu Hengsheng's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and he took a long breath: "After precipitating for some days, I finally re-entered the middle stage of the human realm."

Gu Hengsheng clenched his fists, feeling that his strength had increased several times compared to before, and he was more confident to go to the land of Sword Ruins.

The night was silent and silent.

As he opened his eyes dimly, Gu Hengsheng came downstairs and said hello to Wen Ruomei: "Miss Wen, thank you for your hospitality yesterday."

Watching Gu Hengsheng walk towards the door step by step, Wen Ruomei blinked her ethereal eyes and chuckled: "Childe go slowly, if you have the chance, please come and take care of the business of the small shop."

Gu Hengsheng nodded slightly in response, and then stepped out of the door of the restaurant, leaving a black elongated arrogant and cold back.

When Gu Hengsheng just stepped out of the door, the old man who was still polishing the black iron in the corner of the wall with his head bowed silently raised his head slowly and glanced at Gu Hengsheng's back.

The old man's empty and dead eyes just glanced at Gu Hengsheng's back in a hurry, then lowered it again, and then continued to polish the black iron in his hand.
