Volume 1 Volume 1 024 Nanli Country
In the sweat and green door, in the quiet room.
Two old men were meditating. Suddenly, the face of one of the black-robed old men changed sharply, and he stood up from his calm inner cultivation.
"Elder Han, what's going on?"
Han Li looked into the distance, as if he could see hundreds of miles away through layers of walls.
"Someone used the disc, in the early years, Han's successor was once integrated into some divine consciousness, and now although it has been erased, the remaining little divine consciousness is still awakened by this impact!"
The gray-robed old man stood up, walked to Han Li's side, looked in the same direction with him, and asked uneasily, "Can Elder Han feel the specific attack, does it have any effect on you!"
The black-robed Han Li looked at the void again, then shook his head and smiled bitterly?
"Elder Mo was too worried. Now that Han has cleared his divine sense, he can't accurately sense too many details. If it weren't for the power of the disc this time, Han probably wouldn't have been able to detect it. This should be the strongest outbreak since my nephew took over. ”
"Is there something dangerous going on? Shall we rush over and take a look?" Elder Mo asked nervously.
"Elder Mo doesn't need to panic. There shouldn't be any danger to this kid. Han Li took out a red orb, immersed in it, and a knowing smile appeared on his face.
Master Liu slowly fell to the ground, and with his powerful divine sense, he spread all over the wreckage on the surface, quietly watching the flying boat be burned by the firelight.
"When did this thief escape, how could there not be a trace of his breath within a few miles?"
Master Liu came to the front and searched carefully for two hours, but still did not find any trace of Xiao Yi, and finally could only return in a huff.
Yubo City, in the backyard of Ho Ji.
"That kid's sense suddenly disappeared!"
Jingxi suddenly got up from meditation, and the sword heart beside her was also nervous.
"Master, will something happen to the son? Shall we hurry over and take a look?"
Jingxi lowered her head and paced, and finally resisted the urge to go out to look for it, and said suspiciously: "This kid also disappeared for a while before. Two disappearances that are very close to each other, to be exact. Earlier, he had passed the news and said that it would take some time, but now that it had passed, it was a little too hasty. It's better to wait, after all, his Yuan Soul Lamp hasn't been extinguished yet. ”
Jingxi took out a bronze lamp from her storage bag, and the flames on it kept jumping.
"If something happens to this kid, the flame of this Yuan Soul Lantern will also fluctuate. Now, it looks like he's fine?"
Jingxi looked at the blue flame on the lamp, and said to herself in confusion: "So calm, how can it seem like you are cultivating?"
Khan Qing Gate, in a secret room.
"The head, the person responsible for secretly escorting Xiao Daoyou sent a message back, and on the way back, Xiao Daoyou recruited a monk to plot against him, but no trace of Xiao Daoyou was found. I think it should be Xiao Daoyou who got out of trouble with the help of some kind of magical power. They said that they would secretly observe the sneak attackers and report back to the sect. ”
A green-robed middle-aged monk bowed down and said.
Sure enough, Xiao Daoyou was plotted on his way home. Go back and determine which one attacked Xiao Daoyou, and directly bring the past of the torture hall to strangle him. There is no need to come back to report it, and the fewer people you contact with it, the more secretive it is. I'll come back and let me know when I'm done. Even if Lu's family is involved, there is no need to worry about killing him. ”
"Yes!
Lu Zhenhuan took a deep breath, this time he couldn't make another mistake. If Xiao Yi was the only opportunity for his sect to communicate with the Ice Fairy, then he felt that he would not allow any more twists and turns.
The wind outside the hall whimpered, making people involuntarily sigh with a trace of sadness. For hundreds of thousands of years, Khan Qingmen was finally able to get ahead in his generation. He felt that it was a great matter of his heart, and finally let go.
Time passes, and five years pass.
Seventy miles north of Shouyin City, Shoulin Town, Yaofu.
"Madam, something is wrong! The master just took the young master to the river to fish, but the young master fell into the water and was washed away!"
Mrs. Yao was shocked that her only son drowned, and when she landed, she was so shocked that the teacup fell and fell into pieces.
"Hurry up and take people to the rescue as soon as possible! Let all the ships of the caravan stop loading, and let me save my son! Whoever saved the young master today, the bounty is 100 pieces, if anything happens to the young master, then no one in the entire caravan will want to go to my Yao family's shop again!"
The subordinates hurriedly went out to arrange rescue, and Mrs. Yiping didn't care about packing up her clothes, and rushed out of the house with her skirt. Seeing that the lady rushed out in a hurry, the family members hurriedly put down their work and followed out. There were also two sedan chair drivers who wanted to go back and call their companions to carry the sedan chair to chase after Mrs., but they were also reprimanded by the nurse Tang.
"When is it? Who still has the heart to sit in a sedan chair? You two bring ropes and hurry after you! By the way, I'll go to the town and ask Doctor Xue to rush over later! Don't go quickly!"
Needless to say, there was a panic in the house, and when Yiping rushed to the shore, he saw two family members looking anxiously at the surface of the Shou River on the shore.
"What are you looking at, where is the young master, where is the master?"
Seeing that it was Mrs. herself, the two hurriedly said: "Mrs. Hui, just now the young master was dragged into the water by a big fish, and the master was worried about the young master, so he jumped into the water to save people." Yao Xin and Yao Yuan also jumped down, but it was a long time......"
Suddenly, a small figure on the opposite side was lifted up from the water, followed by a cyan figure half revealed from the water.
"It's the master! Madam! The master has rescued the young master!"
The distance is extremely far, but Yiping can confirm that it is her husband Yao Tai'an and her beloved son Yao Nianye.
Aiko had been drowning for too long, and at this point she was no longer breathing. After Yao Tai'an came ashore, he quickly pressed the river water out of Yao Nianye's abdomen, and beat him in the heart with reference to the fishermen's methods. After a while, Aiko spat out a mouthful of river water, and then let out a low groan. Yao Nianye woke up just now, and an exclamation pierced the sky. Although the Yao family said that they were separated by a wide river, they could still hear it clearly.
"Ye'er is fine! They are all fine! Great! Great!" Yi Ping cried with joy, and her body fell to the ground and passed out.
"Hurry up and call someone to pick up the old man! Here are a few people, send the lady back quickly! Send someone to invite the doctor to the house first!"
The Yao family was busy treating his wife, and Yao Tai'an on the other side of the river hugged his beloved son and comforted him in a loud voice.
At night, Yao Nianye's little hand clutched his mother's index finger tightly, and he had convulsions from time to time in his sleep. Yi Ping looked at her beloved son with pity, and said angrily without looking back: "Xianggong, I'm afraid Ye'er will have to toss for a while if she is frightened this time." I'm going to stay here tonight to take care of Ye'er, so you might as well go back and rest first. I'm going to go to Shouyin to deal with the shop early tomorrow morning, so don't waste it here. ”
"Madame, don't worry, I'll stay with you for a while, and when you go to sleep, I'll arrange for someone to drive over at night. I'll go back and sleep in the car and let them go slower so they won't be delayed. ”
Yao Tai'an tucked the quilt again, made sure that the child did not show his hands and feet, and then slowly sat on the edge of the bed.
"Xianggong, although several shops in Shouyin have been in business for seven or eight years, they still lack a lot compared to the family of Nanliguo. This time, don't compete with others, and don't worry about more or less in everything. As long as those stores can continue to operate, then we will not be able to grow big in the future. ”
Seeing that his wife had to bother with everything, Yao Taian could only smile helplessly. Why does the lady have to worry about getting into trouble every time?
In the early morning of the next day, the Shouyin army opened the city gate, and a team of carriages slowly marched in. A group of carriages and horses came to a lane on Xishi Street, and then slowly stopped.
"Master, we're here. ”
Hearing the low shouts of the family outside the car, Yao Taian slowly turned over from the carriage and sat up. He went on the road in the middle of the night, and this sleep was also half a day before he fell asleep in a daze, and he almost lost his beloved son yesterday, which made him palpitations when he didn't know how to water. Speaking of which, I am good at climbing trees and houses, but there is always no way to do it in this water. It always seems that it takes a lot of effort to swim out of the water.
Entering the backyard, Yao Taian first checked the accounts of the store under his name for half a month, and then arranged for someone to count and distribute the goods brought in, and he was busy for half a day, and then he felt a little hungry in his stomach.
"It seems that I didn't eat this morning!" Yao Tai'an shook his head and smiled bitterly, he didn't eat, and it is estimated that the people brought under his hands did not dare to eat. So he closed the book and walked to the kitchen.
"Let me tell you, the meal will start in half an hour, and today because Yao caused everyone to miss breakfast, then Yao will personally add a few dishes to everyone. If anyone is hungry and anxious, take some starch candy from the shop and turn back to Yao's account. ”
"Master Yao is in charge of the spoon himself, who still wants to eat dim sum? The little one will pass on the word, by the way, master, don't forget to add some spicy to the steamed pork today!"
The guy Yao Yuan smiled and went out to clean the dishes and chopsticks, and only Yao Tai'an and two cooks who steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables were left in the huge kitchen.
After a while, a long table in the dining hall was full of dishes and drinks, and everyone was not polite, anyway, they had long been accustomed to the unrestrained atmosphere of Master Yao and his subordinates.
Near the end of eating and drinking, a person walked in outside the door and whispered a few words in Yao Tai'an's ear.
"What, how can this be?" asked Yao Tai'an, stunned and incredulous.
"Sir, there are indeed monsters. Because the Li family raised this monster, the surrounding villagers did not dare to resist it, so no one sold us silk. Moreover, the Li family said that in the future, the silk of those villagers could only be purchased from the Li family, and the price would be tripled. ”
Yao Tai'an put down the dishes and chopsticks, beckoned everyone to continue eating, and went out of the store with the visitors.
The two fast horses kicked dust all the way, and arrived at Lijiaao in the south of the city an hour later. Seeing that the caravan he was responsible for the acquisition was gathered at the entrance of the village, Yao Tai'an hurriedly dismounted to appease everyone.
"Master, this Li family doesn't know where to get a strange beast, as long as it passes through the mulberry forest, the silkworms will explode and die. Now all the sericulture households in the surrounding villages dare not resist it, and they all hand over the right to sell to the Li family. And not to mention that they halved the purchase price, it was ......"
Seeing that the leader of the caravan was struggling, Yao Tai'an asked with a displeased face: "Say it quickly, what else do they dare to do?"
"Whoever dares to trade privately, they will destroy houses and rob people, and set fire to forests. ”
Yao Tai'an gritted his teeth angrily when he heard this, and said indignantly: "Isn't that like a robber and bandit?"
"Master, they are not as good as bandits and bandits! People rob at night, and the government will come forward to clean them up. However, these people are fighting with open fire, and they are simply robbing them openly! The government and them are all out of the nostrils, and you report to the officials, but before the people come back, the family will be completely bulldozed. ”
Yao Tai'an pulled out his long sword and was about to smash the Li family in anger, but then slowly inserted it back into the scabbard.
"Alright, that's the end of this business. Go back to the store and wait for the Beiji silk to arrive before selling. Let's all go back, and bring my horses back by the way. ”
Seeing that Yao Tai'an was going to stay by himself, everyone turned around silently and returned to Shouyin City.
On the way back, although the speed of the crowd was not slow, several newcomers were still puzzled by the behavior of leaving the host.
"Third Brother Yao, it won't be okay for the master to stay in Lijiaao by himself, right?
"You're new here, I don't know. Although the business has always been taken care of by the lady, as long as our lord comes out, no matter how difficult the problem is, it can be solved. Go back and wait in peace!"
Since the third brother said so, the younger brother also followed the long experience this time. ”
At night, dark clouds overhead and the north wind grows stronger.
Yao Tai'an jumped over the wall into Li's house and quietly touched the backyard.
This Li family's back house has a big house three zhang wide, about two zhang high. The constant roar of the beast from it sent chills down the spine, a murderous thing that Yao Tai'an had never seen before.
After listening to the door for a long time, he made sure that there was no one inside. I had the heart to spy on the movements inside, but there was no light in this big house, and Yao Tai'an was also quite troublesome.
The little finger nails soaked in his mouth, and he gently snapped a crescent on the window paper, and Yao Tai'an flicked a fire phosphorus pellet into it.
Although this fire phosphorus pill can only burn a few puffs, it is not hot enough to ignite anything. But it can illuminate the surroundings in the dark, and eventually incinerate and dissipate. Except for a short period of time, there will be a slight breath of fire phosphorus, and the rest will not leave any clues at all.
The phosphorus fire ignited, and in a green light, Yao Tai'an saw that there was a fierce beast in the room that was bound by seven iron chains. In front of it was a hill of minced meat. Although the phosphorus fire was quickly extinguished, Yao Tai'an still saw an arm.
"They actually raise fierce beasts to eat people? It seems that even if there is no reason to hurt silkworms, this family should die!"
Yao Tai'an went around to the back wall, inserted his sword into the crack in the window, and cut off the wooden bolt in three or two clicks. Lightly overturned, although it alarmed the locked beast, but because it kept roaring, Yao Tai'an didn't particularly care.
He swung his sword and prepared to cut off its head, but he didn't want the beast to suddenly attack, and a huge claw slapped down on his head. Yao Tai'an hurriedly pulled out of the way, but he didn't want the beast to be bound by chains, and his claws couldn't pull halfway back.
"So you can't hurt Yao at all, then I'm sorry!" Yao Tai'an hurriedly swung his sword, and with a muffled sound, the giant beast slammed into the ground.
Yao Tai'an saw that he had succeeded, and hurriedly went out to escape over the wall. Although this monster was easily killed, its roar was easily discovered by the people of the Li family as soon as it was broken.
Yao Tai'an had only taken two steps when there was a commotion in the courtyard behind him, and then the entire Li Mansion was brightly lit.
"Oh no! The beast has been killed! Come on!"
"This thief must not have run far!
Yao Tai'an stepped on the body of the sword and reasoned with the slimy beast blood in the grass, then inserted the sword into the sheath and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
"I didn't expect this thing's blood to be green!
Yao Tai'an did not take the official road, but just hurried on the path. Halfway through a stream, he simply washed the blade of his sword on the bank and cleaned the bottom of his boots.
"Little thief, steal and kill Yu's divine beast at night, your guts are not small!"
A voice came from behind, which made Yao Tai'an hurriedly turn around with his sword and look at the person with cold eyes. This person came and went silently, and according to Yao Tai'an's keen intuition, it was not easy to be secretly approached.
Although Yao Tai'an said that he was unlucky, he had an amazing talent for mastering martial arts. Over the years, he has also made friends with many martial arts masters, and when they fight each other, three or five people can't get close at all. Seeing that the person who came came with a black robe and a brass whisk in his hand. He was looking at Yao Tai'an with pity, as if he were looking at a dead man.
"Divine beast? You said that the giant beast of the Li family just now was raised by you? With this harvest, you suppressed silkworm farmers, destroyed people and mulberry forests, killed people and sold them by force, and most importantly, this beast actually feeds on human flesh! What kind of divine beast do you keep talking about! Which divine beast would be so rampant in the world?"
Although Yao Tai'an knew that the other party was skilled, but he was so arrogant, no matter how good the other party was, he would not sit idly by.
"I, a pupal beast, can deal with all pupae insects. Don't say anything about silkworm bees and the like, even the fire butterflies that have become disasters can be absolutely crushed. Dao Ye finally caught one, and it only took half a month to let you kill it. Poor Dao is avenging the divine beast this time, if you are unwilling, then ask yourself more about the wrong things you did in life. ”
The Taoist priest held the dust in his right hand, and before he was about to make a move, he saw Yao Tai'an swinging his sword and rushing forward. A cloud of sword light came in front of him, and the Taoist priest waved his hand, and the sword light was swept away by the dust.
Yao Tai'an clearly felt that his peak had cut the white ponytail of the dust, but it wasn't until the long sword shot that he was surprised to find that the dust had just not cut off even a ponytail.
"I'm surprised, isn't it? You are a mere mortal who still wants to provoke a cultivator, it's really beyond your strength!"
Before Yao Tai'an came back to his senses, the Taoist priest's dust quickly swung down. Although he was still some distance away from him, he still heard a sharp sound of breaking the sky.
Seeing that the other party was dusty and strange, Yao Tai'an flew to dodge, but his body was not injured, but his robe sleeves were a little late. A sharp force cut through the air, cut through the sleeves of the robe, and finally cut through the water like a sharp blade.
"If you die obediently, then Dao Ye can still give you a good time. But if you resist to the death, you will end up with more torture. Are you sure you're still struggling?"
"Variety through the forest!"
Yao Tai'an exerted his strength under his feet, and this body method was passed on to him by a woodcutter. At this time, it can be used to dodge attacks well with the clumps of trees, and at the same time distance from the Taoist.
"Do you want to escape?"
The Taoist priest narrowed his eyes, and a small ball of light rose from the tip of his left finger. As he ejected the orb of light, it looked like substance, smashing through branches and weeds along the way. Yao Tai'an narrowly dodged an attack, and then seven or eight balls of light flew over.
"Poof!"
There were several soft sounds, and an old man in a gray cloth robe stopped in front of Yao Tai'an. The balls of light struck the old man, and then vanished.
"Yao Tai'an, thank you seniors for coming to the rescue!"
When the old man saw him bowing his hand, he nodded knowingly, and turned around to glance at the Taoist priest who was standing.
