Volume 1 Getting Ahead Chapter 17 All the way
Weekday time.
Mo Xing rubbed his eyes and kept yawning.
"Why did you call me so early......" Mo Xing narrowed his eyes, "I slept late last night, and I have to get up now......"
"Get up, hurry up!" Mo Kongchen was not polite to his son at all, "It's almost dawn, don't forget that we are on our way outside!"
"Good good ......"
The father and son were carrying a large bag and a small bag on their backs, and hurried on their way.
"Why the hell did you leave so early?" Mo Xing was still puzzled.
"You'll understand in a moment by noon. Mo Kongchen didn't answer his son's question, and turned to another topic, "Stabilize your true qi, and prepare to learn how to force the sound into a line!"
A few yellow snakes with thread-like fins fell from the trees. Mo Kongchen grabbed one of them. Mo Xing watched his father observe and fiddle with the long worm.
"These are snakes, their scales are natural flint," Mo Kongchen said, "grinding the scales into powder, dripping water and ignition." - I knew it would be like this for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be more serious. β
"These snakes are of no use to us - don't forget the boys!
The two continued on their way.
Shortly after they left.
"These traces...... Yes, they passed through here. β
"Boss, that ......"
"Has the body been examined?"
"It's out, it's ...... First, he was restrained by a very thin thread, and then his throat was cut, and there was no trace of a fight at the scene, and he was killed with one blow. β
"One hit, so much extra action?"
"That...... It is...... In short, not an order of magnitude at all. β
"Alright, you go first. β
............
Ferry.
"It costs five big coins to cross the river alone. β
"Give. β
Mo Kongchen handed the boatman a big penny, and the father and son got into the cabin one after another.
"When we crossed the river, we walked along the shore, which was gentle and easier to walk. β
"Daddy, it's time for breakfast, right?"
"I guess you can't wait. Take it out, and I'll eat a little too. β
Outside the cabin, the boatman held the boat up for a while.
"Take advantage of this time to get some rest. Mo Kongchen said, "I won't be able to find a place to rest after a while." β
"Hmm......"
"Are you really stupid or fake stupid?" a voice suddenly exploded in Mo Xing's mind, "How much did I tell you kid to pay attention to safety, pay attention to safety, and if you pay attention to safety, are all the left ears in and out of the right ear?"
Mo Xing was frightened by his father's sudden lesson, but he immediately reacted, "This is ...... That's ......"
"That's right," Mo Kongchen's voice came directly into Mo Xing's ears, "This is the forced sound into a line." β
"Forcing the sound into a line, a little trick that people with a little cultivation will use. The principle is to wrap the sound in your throat through true qi and connect it to the ear of the recipient like a thin wire, which can effectively prevent ordinary people from eavesdropping. Of course, "Mo Kongchen said," this method is not very effective, and people with a little knowledge can solve it through other methods. β
"Then from now on, first refine the true qi. β
Mo Kongchen looked helplessly at Mo Xing's appearance that he was about to float again, "If you still can't control your ability to levitate, then let's not learn to force the sound into a line, let's consolidate and consolidate the Qi refining period first, and then talk about other complicated things." β
"Yes, yes, yes. β
Mo Xing seemed to understand that his father was indeed unhappy at this time, and hurriedly sat down steadily, but the cushion under his buttocks did not feel the slightest feeling of being pressed.
"Kou Ba-" Mo Kongchen sighed, "Imagine the silkworm spinning silk." β
"Silkworm - Spit - Silk ...... I haven't seen it. β
"Heyβokay. Mo Kongchen shook his head, he found that this kid was sometimes very smart, and sometimes he was very stupid, "You put your lips together, like whistling, blowing your true qi into a line-"
"Shhhh
"Yes, then, turn the true qi into a hollow tube, and rely on it to transmit sound-"
"Poof-" Mo Xing tinkered for a long time, and then blew a gas needle out of his mouth, drilling a small hole in the shed on the roof of the ship.
"Tsk, alas...... "Mo Kongchen hates iron and steel, this is just the simplest trick, how can you not teach it......
However, when the boat crossed the river and had reached the center of the river, Mo Xing had already learned some of the forced sound into linesβpartly because he had only learned to transmit sound in a straight line for the time being, and had not yet learned to use his spiritual power to remotely control the subtle changes in his true qi.
"Gooo......"
"What sound?" Mo Kongchen frowned and slipped out of the cabin.
Where is the shadow of the boatman.
Not only is the boatman gone, but even the penny is gone.
"Sure enough, it's a swarm of flies, endlessly entangled, it's really a pit. β
As soon as Mo Kongchen stepped on it, he knew the location of the leak at the bottom of the boat in the blink of an eye. He plugged the gap with his true qi, walked to the stern of the boat, touched the water with his palms, and the true qi turned into bursts of energy.
"Boy, come out. β
"Hey, Daddy, I'm here. β
"Fly into the sky and follow the boat," Mo Kongchen said, "The boatman is gone, I am going to drive the boat with my true qi now, and you will keep an eye on it for me in the sky." β
Mo Xing flew into the sky, looked around, and finally replied, "Daddy, there seems to be something black swimming under the water......
Mo Kongchen's nerves suddenly tensed, and as soon as Mo Xing's voice fell, several black shadows with knives instantly jumped from the surface of the water to the boat, and one of them stabbed Mo Kongchen directly at the door of the face, and was cut into two sections by Mo Kongchen with his backhand drawing his sword.
"Ghost guys. Mo Kongchen muttered to himself, "I don't have any cultivators' treasures on me, what do these fleas want to rob?"
While fighting with several assassins pretending to be fishermen, Mo Kongchen shouted at Mo Xing: "Boy, you go to the other side of the shore and wait for me first, and your father will arrive later!"
Hearing this, Mo Xing did not hesitate, and immediately turned around and left.
"Hehe, you're thinking too much...... Do you really think your son will be safe when he gets ashore?"
"I don't know if Ann is safe, but I can be sure that with the ability of a three-legged cat like you, you will definitely not be able to catch him. β
"We'll just wait and see, but do you think you can get away now?"
Mo Kongchen narrowed his eyes. As early as when he found the snake, he knew that it would inevitably be extremely hot and dry in the past two days, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. Although he could hide in the inkpool he had released, his main attribute was still biased towards fire, otherwise he wouldn't be able to forge iron with his true qi alone. Now this hot and humid environment is something he doesn't like very much.
