I'm just a swineherd, not a beastmaster.

Two figures were speeding on the weed-covered mountain road.

Yuan Feng is in front and Tie Man is behind.

He runs away, he chases, he can't fly.

"Damn it, why do you have to chase me so closely? I didn't kill your whole family!"

Yuan Feng ran and cursed, and the iron man behind him was chasing him closer and closer.

Faced with the relentless pursuit, Yuan Feng could only muster all his strength to escape, as he would definitely not be able to win in a head-on confrontation.

With two whoosh sounds, the two men flew past halfway.

Wang Er opened his eyes half asleep under the tree.

"Eh? Something flew over there, probably a bird. Oh, never mind. I'll wait another hour. If the pig farmer doesn't come down, I won't wait any longer."

After talking to himself, Wang Er closed his eyes again and continued to dream about Zhou Gong in the shade of the tree.

Compared to Wang Er's leisure, Yuan Feng suffered much more.

Yuan Feng was chased by the Iron Man all the way from the mountainside to the ravine.

"Still chasing, eh? Don't blame me for being rude. When a dog is cornered, it will jump over the wall; when a rabbit is cornered, it will bite!"

He is neither a dog nor a rabbit, he is a man with a temper.

Realizing that he couldn't just run away anymore, Yuan Feng turned around and cast a spell.

"Take my fireball!"

Dazzling flames spurted out from his hands, and the scorching flames instantly engulfed the iron man.

The iron man paused, but only for a moment, and continued to run wildly under the flames.

Seeing that it had no effect, Yuan Feng did not dare to disperse the spell, and released small fireballs while running.

"You...ka...are too weak." The Iron Man taunted, obviously having already defined Yuan Feng as a loser.

"Too weak? I'm just saying that because you're so beautiful! I don't believe I can't roast you to death!"

Yuan Feng was irritated and was using his spiritual power like it was free.

Fortunately, his spiritual power far exceeded that of the cultivators of the same level, otherwise if he used his strength without restraint, he would have died in a short while.

But then again, although he has a lot of spiritual energy, this fireball spell is a low-level spell after all, and his own realm is not very high. Although the flame formed by the spell looks terrifying, it is ultimately an ordinary flame.

This fireball technique is fine for burning living people, but it is not good enough for smelting iron.

One was chasing and the other was fleeing. Yuan Feng's fireball technique was unprecedented at the beginning. It lasted for half an incense stick of time and only burned the iron man's body red, without causing any substantial impact.

"I...told you...you're too weak!"

The Iron Man taunted him once more, after Yuan Feng's spiritual power was exhausted and he stopped casting the spell.

"You are strong, come on, I can't afford to offend you!"

Yuan Feng didn't run around aimlessly, he ran to the lake on purpose. The lake here was sandwiched between ravines, and the rain water from the mountains accumulated over time, so the lake was wide enough.

No matter how great his iron man defense is, he is still a lump of iron and can't swim.

Yuan Feng weighed himself up and realized that in his previous life, he was the swimming champion of the children's group in Xingfu Garden Community. After traveling through time, he has firmly established himself as the swimming champion in the mountain village.

I can’t run faster than an iron man, but at least I can swim better than him.

With a "splash", Yuan Feng dived into the water and swam away like a nimble fish.

After becoming a monk, his physique became stronger and his swimming speed also increased. Now he was more confident that he could get rid of the iron man.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is very ugly.

The Iron Man cannot swim, but he is heavy enough to run on the bottom of the lake using his own weight.

There was a louder "plop" and the iron man hit the water, splashing water three meters high. He quickly sank to the bottom and ran with his iron legs. His speed was not much slower than on land.

Yuan Feng turned around and was stunned.

"Oh my god, you can run underwater?"

This was something he never expected.

But no matter what, if this were a diving competition, I would be the winner in terms of splash marks.

He was at a disadvantage, and this was the only way he could comfort himself.

Since there was no advantage in the water, Yuan Feng could only get ashore as soon as possible.

He kicked his legs and stepped on the water, then jumped onto the land like a penguin.

Agile and fast, but ultimately no match for the speed of an iron man.

The iron man squatted deeply, exerted force with his iron legs, and his whole body rushed to the shore like a launched rocket.

A dark shadow covered his head, and Yuan Feng drew his sword in panic and held it to his chest to block it.

Now he only hated that he couldn't use the sword. If he knew how to use the sword, with the sharpness of the flying sword that could cut through iron like mud, it would be a piece of cake for him to chop down this iron man.

Unfortunately, Yuan Feng just doesn’t know how to use a sword.

The flying sword in his hand has a double-sided blade. If it is wielded by someone who does not know how to use a sword, he will hurt himself before killing the enemy.

In this critical moment, Yuan Feng had no choice but to pick it up and hold it in front of him since he didn't know how to use it.

"Ding!"

There was a crisp sound of metal colliding, and the iron man was unable to adjust his body in the air and hit himself on the sword.

Their eyes met, feeling a little awkward.

This sword did not hurt the Iron Man at all. The flying sword that could cut through iron like mud seemed to have become scrap iron at this moment, and did not even leave any trace on the Iron Man's body.

"I...ka...become stronger again?" Iron Man was also surprised.

The sunlight shines on the iron man, flashing colorful light, which is extremely beautiful.

Yuan Feng suddenly thought of something: "It's fire! I just sprayed fire on you, and then you fell into the water. The black iron first encountered high temperature, and then encountered cold. The term is called... quenching, which will make the black iron stronger!"

"Thank you... for your explanation. To repay you... I will leave your body intact!"

"Then thank you very much."

Yuan Feng dodged as he spoke, but unfortunately the two were too close and the fist was already in front of him.

The next moment, Yuan Feng was about to die on the spot.

But the iron man's movements suddenly stopped, and time seemed to stop at this moment.

The shimmering lake nearby tells us that time has not stopped, but the iron man has frozen.

Hiding in a secret place, Da Ya, who was about to take action, was stunned, and Lei Niang next to him was also stunned.

"Mother Lei, why doesn't that iron lump take action?"

"I don't know. If he doesn't do anything, then you shouldn't do anything either."

The Iron Man was also stunned at this moment.

"You...what did you do! Why can't I move...?"

The iron man spoke slower and slower, and his lips became increasingly stiffer.

"Oh, I remember now!" Yuan Feng was also a little shocked, but soon he realized, "It's still a problem with quenching. Although quenching can make black iron harder, it will also make it lose its flexibility. After quenching, your joints have hardened, so you can't punch."

As he spoke, Yuan Feng grinned.

"Since you can't move, hehe!"

"You...what are you doing? If you are a hero, fight me head-on instead of taking advantage of others!"

Yuan Feng didn't listen to what the other party said.

I am not really a hero, just a pig farmer. It would be wishful thinking for me to fight head-on like an iron man.

Why didn't he say anything before? Now that he's at a disadvantage, he's still seeking justice.

What a hypocrite.

Yuan Feng despises such hypocrites the most.

With a "puff", Yuan Feng drew his sword and stabbed it into the weakest part of the iron man's neck.

The bright red blood immediately splashed into the air.

"what--"

The Iron Man let out a final wail and then fell silent.

“It turns out that the inside is also made of meat.”

Yuan Feng was a little disappointed. He thought that what was flowing out would be molten iron, but it turned out to be just ordinary blood.

The sword rubbed against the grass beside him to wipe off the blood, and then he put the sword away again.

When I went up the mountain to suppress bandits, I unexpectedly met such a crazy iron man who started chasing me without saying a word.

Yuan Feng just felt unlucky and decided to leave as soon as possible.

You should check the almanac before going out. No doubt, the almanac says it is not advisable to go out today.

I looked up at the low hill in front of me and saw that the way home was at the other end.

Just now, in order to escape, I ran farther and farther away from home, and it’s a long way to go back.

It is indeed not advisable to go out.

After dusting off his body, Yuan Feng took a few steps forward when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The speed was extremely fast, and it slowly grew from a black dot to a larger one.

Only when Yuan Feng got closer could he see clearly that it was a haggard old man.

The old man was walking at a pace that was inconsistent with his age, quickly closing the distance between him and Yuan Feng.

Seeing this, Yuan Feng was suddenly startled.

"Bad news. Isn't this the old saying that when the younger one is beaten, the older one comes?"

This is how it is played out in novels, but after the protagonist defeats the smaller ones, his strength will greatly increase, but my current strength has not changed at all.

The younger ones all won by luck, and if an older one comes along, it will be a disaster.

"Good grandson!"

The more you fear something, the more likely it is to come true. The old man let out a wail, his eyes fixed on the iron man's corpse.

Well, this wailing is so heartbreaking... Yuan Feng can no longer be lucky, he is sure that it is the Iron Man Grandpa.

The old one is here, and since he can’t beat him, there’s no need for him to wait any longer.

run!

Yuan Feng rushed in the opposite direction from where the old man came.

"You brat! If you destroy the bloodline of my Xiao family, I will slay you! Don't run!"

Xiao family?

Yuan Feng doesn’t care whether you are from the Wang family or the Li family now, just run away.

And tell yourself not to run.

Your whole family is crazy, but Yuan Feng is not. He knows the interests involved very well.

From the spiritual energy surrounding the old man as he ran, Yuan Feng could tell that his strength was definitely above the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Although it is not much higher, it is still high.

Yuan Feng is a rookie cultivator who is at a disadvantage in terms of cultivation realm and the magic he knows is of the most inferior level.

Since you definitely cannot compare to your opponent in terms of combat experience, running away is the best option.

"stop!"

The old man shouted from behind.

Yuan Feng just turned a deaf ear to his words.
