Chapter 46 Returning (1)

Three days later, the long swords of Zhonglixiu, Ouyang Fei, Duanmu Nan and others were all released. They found that the feeling of these weapons after inscriptions was even more magical than what Zhou Fang said. Their long swords were not refined in the end, and there were many reasons, but the most important one was Zhuoran. Although they felt that the old man was too enthusiastic, they still followed his advice.

Zhuoran seemed to have a special liking for Zhu Zhu and always extended his olive branch to the young man. In the envious eyes of several people, Zhu Zhu became the old man's registered disciple and obtained a bronze waist card inlaid with emeralds. Although the emerald is not big, it looks extremely honorable. As far as they know, the old man has never accepted disciples, and Zhu Zhu became the only one. However, they thought carefully that this identity had no effect. They had no possibility of refining weapons with the star pattern as the water system. In other words, even if Zhu Zhu became a registered disciple, he could not accept the old man's mantle. Perhaps this was just the old man expressing his favor to Zhu Zhu, at least in Zhonglixiu's heart.

Before leaving, the old man gave Zhu Zhu a silver key and said, "Remember to come and see me often in the future. Don't forget to bring some top-quality refining spirit materials back, just treat it as a gift to honor me. If I don't put the things down, remember to lock the door and don't lose it." Although the old man said casually and had a smile on his face, Zhu Zhu could feel a slight sadness. They had not been together for a long time, but the old man gave him a lot of teachings, which is something that will benefit for life. He didn't know if he would come here again in the future, but he would not forget this master. "I can, Master!" The voice of Master Zhu Zhu shouted very sincerely.

The conversation in the Fire Cave was the last farewell for the old man. After Zhu Zhu and his men left, he smashed into the refining room again. He always felt something was missing when he refining the weapon. Later, he finally found that he felt lonely since Zhu Zhu left, which was a feeling he had never felt before. However, his refining weapon speed was obviously much faster than before, and he could refine five or six pieces every day, which was twice as much as before.

Zhu Zhu and his men had already left the heat basin, standing on a low hill, looking up at the sunset. The tall figures were pulled long by the dim light. The sunlight gave a metallic color on their faces, and their still tender faces had a hint of maturity. The mood of the six people was completely different from when they came. Perhaps because they got the star patterned weapons, they were full of longing and yearning. Zhonglixiu, Ouyang Fei, Duanmu Nan, Tuoba Meng, and Dongfang Yue were all holding long swords. Although the exquisite and gorgeous scabbards were not inlaid with gems, they still shone in the sunset.

It was a gift from Zhuoran when he was leaving. Obviously, the old man spent a lot of effort on it. They knew that most of it was because of Zhu Zhu, but they were still grateful to the old man. Because the cost of this scabbard is almost the same as refining an ordinary star-patterned long sword. Only Zhu Zhu seemed to be different, holding not a sword but an umbrella. He looked like a scholar who was studying, and he always kept carrying rain gear. Speaking of which, this weapon refining was entirely due to Zhu Zhu, otherwise it would not have been so smooth. Looking at the long sword in his hand, they thought this junior brother was even more cute.

As night slowly descended, the earth blurred outlines, and the hustle and bustle of the day also returned to silence. A bonfire was lit at the trough under the hills, and several pheasants on the grill had already started to drip oil, and the strong aroma of meat spread. Zhongli Xiu and others sat around the bonfire, talking excitedly about the scene of catching pheasants. Zhongli Xiu was dancing with his eyebrows. When he talked about how to show his power, he couldn't help laughing when he cut down a giant tree with one sword, "You don't know, I waved it suddenly, but I knew that before I cut down a tree next to the tree in front, I fell down first. I was wondering what was going on, the two pheasants jumped out and leaped into my arms..."

Dongfang Yue teased, "Senior Brother Zhongli, are you going to catch pheasants or cut trees?" Everyone burst into laughter. Before the laughter fell, Tuoba Meng said, "I saw a giant wolf in that forest just now. I wanted to try what my sword is like, but who knew it ran away before I could take action!" Zhongli Xiu pointed at Tuoba Meng and teased, "Nonsense! It's simply nonsense! Where did the giant wolf come from here? You're not dreaming!" Everyone started to laugh again.

A wolf howl suddenly sounded in the distance, and everyone's smiles froze on their faces. Zhu Zhu asked in surprise: "Senior Brother, did you really see the giant wolf?" When Zhu Zhu heard the howl of the wolf suddenly thought of the wolf mastiff in Dongzhou City. He would never forget the sound of the wolf mastiff, if he wanted to tear apart the night sky. More importantly, Duan Yuhuang's disappearance was also related to it. According to Ye Zixiao, this wolf mastiff was extremely dangerous and had unimaginable abilities. He suddenly realized the danger he was facing at this time, and his face turned into a look of horror. "Of course it's true! So what's wrong?" Tuoba Meng asked curiously, wondering why this junior brother was so nervous.

Zhu Zhu said: "I have seen this giant wolf before. It is the guardian of the Star Pattern Array of Dongzhou City, the Ice and Snow Temple, but now it is not." "So what?" Tuoba Meng looked at Zhu Zhu with a strange look. Zhu Zhu hesitated, not knowing what to say. When he remembered Ye Zixiao's distracted appearance when he first appeared at Yuelai Inn, he was not sure whether Ye Zixiao was saying true. At this time, the howling of the wolf was getting closer and closer, as if he was coming to this side.

"Anyway, it's very dangerous, so we'd better avoid it." Zhu Zhu's decisive expression made Zhonglixiu and others half-doubted, but Zhu Zhu had no reason to deceive them, and his solemn expression already showed the seriousness of the matter. "Okay! But where should I hide?" Zhonglixiu looked around, his eyes looked confused. Zhu Zhu also found that there was no place to hide in the trough, and the nearest woods were separated by a hill. At this time, the moon had just climbed up, and the hills were clearly seen. Once climbing up the hill, it would be like to actively expose his whereabouts. He suddenly saw a pile of rocks more than ten feet away and said, "You can only hide there first. If you are discovered, you can fight hard."

Tuoba Meng asked, "What should I do if these pheasants are not eaten yet!" His eyes showed a look of drooling. If the pheasant had not yet been cooked, he had already taken action. "The giant wolf might have come over after smelling the pheasant. If we eat it, then it will only be..." Zhu Zhu did not finish it, but everyone understood what he meant. In a hurry, several people ran into the pile of rocks, but found that only lying in a low-lying place could cover their figure. Dongfang Yueji was unwilling, but he had to bear it in the face of danger. However, when she lay on the ground, she said to Zhu Zhu: "Little brother, if you dare to lie to me, I will make you look good!"

Dongfang Yue looked very funny when she was angry, but Zhu Zhu couldn't laugh, and just nodded silently.

The wolf howls tore the night sky and approached quickly, faster than expected. They just lay down, and Zhu Zhu was still wondering why the wolf mastiff was interested in cooked food? The huge figure appeared in sight. The wolf mastiff looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no danger, it looked at the already burnt pheasant on the grill. Although it was far away, Zhu Zhu could still see the wolf mastiff's green eyes, as if the dark fire in the night, cold and weird. At this time, the bonfire cast a light and shadow on the wolf mastiff's eyes, and you could see a faint excitement and greed.

Zhu Zhu found that he just blinked his eyes, and the bonfire under the grill was gone. The next moment, the hill suddenly lit up, and it was a fire, as if it was there, swaying violently with the mountain wind. At this time, everyone's eyes were filled with fear. This giant wolf was not just as fierce as it was. It had the power of star patterns that was beyond ordinary people, and it was the power of space.

Zhongli Xiu and others held the hilt tightly, and their hands were sweating unknowingly. This was a rare thing for them who received the inheritance of the water-based star pattern. It was only possible when the power of the star pattern was condensed to a certain point. At this time, all the strength of their bodies was condensed on the long sword, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

In a blink of an eye, the wolf mastiff had swallowed the pheasant on the grill, and suddenly turned its head to the pile of rocks. It seemed that it was still unsatisfied and looked here greedily. From its eyes, it could be seen that it had discovered delicious food again. The saliva kept dripping from the huge wolf's mouth, and it felt disgusting from a distance, and it also contained the pheasant's crumbs.

The huge wolf claws were raised and then stepped down. The wolf mastiff finally slowly walked towards the pile of rocks. Zhu Zhu knew that the wolf mastiff had discovered them. Just as he was about to call Zhong Li Xiu and others to attack together, he suddenly found a strange crushing force attacking in an instant, as if the entire ground was shaking. The rocks began to disappear strangely, and then they exposed from behind the stones.

In their eyes, there was a huge figure of a wolf mastiff.
