Chapter 86: Key to the Sword God's Tomb

Evening.

On the Dihuzhai Square, three blazing fires shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire square.

More than a hundred people sat on the ground around the bonfire, with laughter, scolding, finger-guessing... all kinds of sounds mixed together, it was so lively.

Lu Li and Li Chenghu sat around a bonfire in the middle, with several wine jars and dishes of side dishes in front of each of them. The firelight reflected Lu Li's face red, and with laughter, he seemed to have returned to the harvest season of Dashi Village.

Every year during the harvest, the villagers of Dashi Village would sit around a bonfire on the village field, the adults would drink and chat, and the children would laugh and play games on the side.

"Nihou, what did you throw on my back that stinks!" Qin Shouren, who was running desperately, suddenly turned back and looked at Lu Li.

"Hahaha, it's shit, it's shit, hahaha..."

"Ah? I'll beat you to death..."

"..."

Lu Li seemed to see Qin Shouren rushing towards him with his fists raised. He smiled, and two lines of tears burst out of his eyes...

"Brother Lu, what's wrong with you?"

The girl in a skirt next to him raised her head and looked at Lu Li, asking softly.

"Ah, no, nothing." Lu Li wiped his face in panic.

"Are you...thinking of sad things?" Lei Xiaoman looked at Lu Li in a daze, "Are you missing your mother? I feel very sad when I think of my mother..."

Lei Xiaoman said, took out a light blue embroidered handkerchief and handed it to Lu Li: "Here."

"Just remembered some past events." Lu Li took the handkerchief, wiped it, and handed it back, "Thank you."

Lei Xiaoman shook her head and smiled sweetly, "Give it to you."

Lu Li was slightly startled by the other party's smile, nodded and put it away.

Next to them, Li Chenghu and Lei Ming were already drunk, holding their jars. They were staggering with their shoulders linked, mumbling something intermittently.

Chu Fankong was still sober, but seeing Lu Li and Lei Xiaoman sitting together, he did not come to disturb them.

Lu Li apologized to Lei Xiaoman, then moved to Chu Fankong, picked up the wine bowl and said, "Brother, I toast you a bowl."

"Okay, drink!" Chu Fankong seemed to have something on his mind, and drank it all in one gulp with blurred eyes.

Lu Li endured the discomfort and drank it all in one gulp with his nose blocked. Then he reached into the bowl and dish without caring about his image, grabbed a handful of cold dishes and stuffed them into his mouth, trying to cover up the discomfort in his mouth.

"Brother, don't force yourself in everything, drink as much as you can." Chu Fankong sighed.

"That's right, brother."

"Well, you are a smart man, much smarter than me, but I still have to tell you a few words, when you go out, keep a low profile... There is no point in fighting for face."

As he said that, he took out a gray square jade plate from his arms and looked at it reluctantly, then handed it to Lu Li: "I am old and don't want to take risks anymore. This thing... I will give it to you. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

The front of the jade plate is engraved with a small sword, and the back is engraved with the word "Huang".

Lu Li was stunned, "What is this?"

Chu Fankong sighed and said, "I heard that this is the key to the Sword God's Tomb. There are eight pieces in total, and each piece is engraved with one of the eight characters of 'Heaven and Earth are Dark and Yellow, and the Universe is Wild'."

"The Sword God's Tomb appears once every fifty years, and eight pieces need to be gathered together to open the tomb door and obtain the Sword God's inheritance... When I got it, I was still young and my cultivation was very low, so I didn't dare to go to the Sword God's Tomb the last time it appeared. Now... Although I have some cultivation, I have lost the desire to dominate... What a pity, it's a pity..."

Sword God's Tomb.

It sounds very powerful, right?

Lu Li quickly took the jade token, "Brother, you treat me so well. If I can really get the inheritance from it one day, I will definitely not forget you."

"Oh, good, good."

Chu Fankong nodded with satisfaction, drank another bowl of wine, and said:

"According to the time, the next time the Sword God's Tomb appears in the world should be ten years later. Judging from your current growth rate, there is still some chance. But brother, I still say that, don't force anything... Otherwise, I will be harming you."

Lu Li nodded and said seriously: "I remember it."

Carefully putting the jade token into the Space Hall, Lu Li asked some more information about the Sword God's Tomb.

But unfortunately, Chu Fankong didn't know much about the Sword God's Tomb.

I only knew that the Sword God's Tomb would appear in the Yunzhou Wanjian Valley once every fifty years, and each time it would last for three months, and then it would disappear again after three months.

In addition, it is said that there is a heaven-defying sword inheritance in the Sword God's Tomb, and if you get it, you can open mountains and cut off seas. It sounds very amazing, but it is just a rumor. Chu Fankong even thought that someone did this on purpose, just to attract the key owner to open the secret realm.

When Chu Fankong got this key forty years ago, he was only twenty-five years old at that time, and his cultivation was at the third level of Qi training. Because his cultivation was too low, he was cautious and just looked at the Sword God Tomb from a distance and left.

He thought about trying again in the next fifty years.

But now, he didn't have the courage. The older people get, the more afraid they are of death.

He just wanted to make steady progress in the Dihu Village, or just spend the rest of his life in peace.

At this time, a large number of people were drunk in the square.

Even a few sober people had red cheeks.

Lu Li shook his head, chatted with Chu Fankong for a while, then stood up and prepared to return to Bihu Garden.

Seeing this, Lei Xiaoman also stood up and walked towards Lu Li: "Brother Lu, are you going back to rest?"

"Well, it's too late, I don't want to sleep in the square."

"Oh." Lei Xiaoman hesitated for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to take a storage bag from her waist and handed it to Lu Li, saying expectantly: "Brother Lu, you said that if I give you 10,000 Ningzhen Pills, you will protect me... Take a look."

"Ah?"

Lu Li stared at Lei Xiaoman strangely. At the beginning, he was just fooling around, but he didn't expect that the other party took it seriously. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "Little girl, I'm kidding you, where did you get so many Ningzhen Pills?"

"I, I borrowed them from Uncle Li."

"Borrowed?" Lu Li glared and pushed it back directly, "Go back quickly, I was joking with you, but you took it seriously."

"Just joking..." Lei Xiaoman's smile disappeared instantly, and she clasped her storage bag with both hands, looking disappointed, and said, "I understand. "Without waiting for Lu Li to speak, she suddenly turned around and ran away.

She ran all the way home, then squatted in the yard and cried loudly.

Although Lu Li didn't drink many bowls of wine, he felt a little dizzy. Seeing Lei Xiaoman leave, he didn't think much and went straight back to Bihuyuan.

Xiao He was still guarding the gate of the courtyard. When she saw Lu Li coming back, she immediately ran over to support him, "Sir, did you drink a lot of wine? Why are you staggering when you walk?"

"Really?" Lu Li was stunned, thinking that he didn't feel anything.

Xiao He chuckled, "Anything else, sir, please slow down, or you will hit the wall."
