The scenery of Hebei Road is completely different from other places. The mountains are rolling and the forests are dense, like a beauty covered by a veil. The soil here is black, the kind that has been decomposed by dead leaves for millions of years and is extremely fertile. Even

It is more fertile than the grassland on the other side of Yinshan Mountain.

During the Tang Dynasty, Hebei Province was roughly the three northeastern provinces and Shandong area, including Songmo Dudu's Mansion, Bohai Dudu's Mansion, Raole Dudu's Mansion, and Heishui Dudu's Mansion.

The Songmo Governor's Mansion has nine prefectures under its jurisdiction, with Kuge as the governor; its Bieshuai Daji tribe is Qiaoluo Prefecture, Hebian tribe is Tanhan Prefecture, Duhuo tribe is Wufeng Prefecture, and Fenwen tribe is Yuling Prefecture.

, the Tuben tribe is Rilian Prefecture, the Ruixi tribe is Tuhe Prefecture, the Shuijin tribe is Wandan Prefecture, the Fu tribe is Pili, and the two Chishan prefectures are Jiuzhou in total. Each of them is the governor of the humiliating He lord. This area is named after

The main residents are the Khitans. The Khitans also farm, farm, and hunt.

Chen Zi'ang and Zhou Mei'er were walking into a gently sloping mountainous area when they saw an old man and a young man carrying a hare for a barbecue in the woods. The old man's face was full of vicissitudes of life, and he sighed: "Grandpa is old, so I can only hunt a rabbit for you to eat."

The young man said: "My child will grow up soon. When he grows up, he will hunt wild boars and feed his bear paws to grandpa!" Grandpa looked at him lovingly and said with a smile: "If your father were here, you wouldn't need my old bones."

Running around."

The young man blinked and asked, "Grandpa, why does Governor Li want all the men in our tribe to serve as soldiers?" Grandpa said, "Grandpa doesn't know either. I just hope your father can come back safely and never start a war."

Chen Ziang galloped out of the path, came to his grandfather and grandson, and asked: "Old man, did you just say that all the strong men were taken by Captain Li to serve as soldiers?" Grandpa nodded and said, "Well, it is said that they are all gathered in the mountains for training.

Well, no one knows their whereabouts."

Chen Ziang said: "Don't worry, sir, the imperial court is committed to peace and will never let the war break out." He said goodbye.

Zhou Meier asked: "Is it true that Governor Li is recruiting troops on a large scale?" Chen Zi'ang nodded and said, "It seems that the news received by the court is true. What does Governor Li want to do when he is recruiting troops on a large scale?"

Zhou Mei'er said: "No wonder there are very few young and strong men in these hundreds of miles. They are probably all drafted into the army." Chen Zi'ang nodded again, admiring Zhou Mei'er's observation skills.

That night, the two set up a small tent by the roadside to sleep. The starry sky was bright and open, and the forest was silent and full of sounds. Chen Ziang took out the dragon ball, meditated in front of the stream, and held the dragon ball under his Dantian.

He practiced the inner scene skills, and within a moment, his internal energy was abundant all over his body. He felt a little excited, and it seemed that his skills had increased. He recited silently: "The people in the Huangting are dressed in brocade clothes, and the purple flowers are flying in the skirts. The clouds are like clouds. Paintings

There are green strips and emeralds, and seven jade shields with two closed doors."

As he continued to exercise, the aura in the Three Palaces became stronger and stronger. Chen Ziang had never felt this way since he started practicing. The strong internal force did not make him feel uncomfortable. It was extremely soft and abundant, filling his blood with internal force.

This internal force blended at the junction of darkness and day. For the first time, he clearly felt the difference between darkness and day in his body. The power in darkness seemed to be stronger. Day was just the space where his internal force condensed, while darkness was the source of internal force.

location.

He has never felt the existence of darkness so clearly. Between the darkness and the day, he can easily draw a steady stream of internal power from the darkness while exercising his skills!

What a strange phenomenon, why is the power of darkness so strong tonight?! It is so strong that it is inexhaustible, and it is so pure!

He raised his right palm and struck forward - after a "pop" sound, the sound of trees breaking in the forest ahead could be heard. Zhou Meier, who was practicing kung fu, turned around and exclaimed: "Brother, this

The sound is so scary!”

Chen Ziang pulled out the big sword again, and in just a moment, the big sword glowed with green light! Zhou Meier covered her mouth and shouted: "Ah!?" She had never seen Chen Ziang emit green internal energy. In this way, his inner scene skill

It’s gone up another level!

The green light on the big sword in Chen Ziang's hand can already illuminate several feet of surrounding forest trees. The big tree he just chopped down was actually as thick as two people holding it together! What kind of powerful internal force is this?

And the dragon ball he was holding in his dantian was also glowing with green light at this time. Could it be that the dragon ball gave Chen Ziang strong internal power?

Chen Ziang raised his sword, rounded his arm and drew a circle in the air. He heard a click, click in the air, and the night sky above Zhou Meier's head suddenly turned round.

She used the light of the big sword to look carefully, and realized that Chen Ziang had drawn a circle in the air when he swung his sword, and had cut off all the branches on the surrounding tree crowns! So when Zhou Meier looked up at the sky again, the night sky that had been blocked by the branches was exposed.

Come on, the night sky naturally looks round.

Chen Zi'ang slowly put down the sword and exhaled a long breath. The light on the sword and the dragon ball slowly disappeared...

When Chen Ziang finished collecting his skills, Zhou Meier couldn't help but praise: "Congratulations, brother, your skills have improved again!" Chen Ziang shook his head and said: "I'm not sure whether it's because of the improvement in skills. It was very strange tonight. The process of concentrating Qi was so easy.

It’s done. I can continue to absorb the power from the underworld! I’ve never been in such a state before.”

Zhou Meier said: "This dragon ball also lights up green tonight." Chen Ziang said: "Well, my skill may have really improved to the intermediate level. This dragon plant helps people absorb the essence of the surroundings, so it will radiate light."

Speaking of this, he suddenly slapped himself on the forehead and said suddenly: "So, there may be a source of supernatural power nearby!" Zhou Meier said doubtfully: "Is that really the case?"

"It's not wrong. Master Cheng said that this dragon ball is the crystallization of dragon cultivation. It can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so it can help people practice martial arts and enhance their internal strength." Chen Ziang said with certainty. He looked around at the dark surroundings.

Forest, said: "It's a pity that we can't stay here for a long time."

Zhou Meier also looked up at the starry sky, leaned on Chen Ziang's shoulder, and said: "If eldest brother becomes a god, wouldn't he leave me alone in this world..."

Chen Ziang looked at her shining eyes in the dark and felt a surge of tenderness. He took her into his arms and said, "Mei'er, you should also practice harder. I will tell you the essentials of practice."

The night was quiet, with only the chirping of insects in the quiet darkness, as if dancing gently, humming from time to time...
