35. Confused face
"Have you been lying down enough for so long?" the minister moved his legs and turned him off from above. With his sudden jolting, Tan Li subconsciously turned over to prevent himself from hitting his head directly to the ground. Then he supported the ground with his hands face down, and slowly raised his head towards the minister, his eyes were slightly complaining.
"Okay, you, there is a limit to being coquettish, and if I lie down again, my legs will be numb and I can't walk. โ
"Then I'll carry you. Chen Qian was sitting there rubbing his legs, but Tan Li sat over, stretched out his hand and kneaded him very skillfully.
"Yo, the technique is not bad, where did you learn it?" Chen Qian looked at it, and simply didn't rub it himself, just let Tan Li move there.
"Use spiritual power to channel the meridians and promote dredging. Tan Li lifted his thighs to his own legs and stabilized them, his expression was rarely soft. "You taught me the exercises. โ
โโฆโฆ Spiritual power?" Chen Qian suddenly realized a question, "Aren't you a demon cultivator, how can you still use spiritual power?"
The strength in Tan Li's hand was still the same, but he paused for a while before saying, "That's not a demon cultivation technique." โ
"Oh," Chen Qian nodded.
โโฆโฆ Huh!?"
"Why are you so surprised?" Tan Li was a little puzzled, "Didn't you give me the exercises?" โ
"yes. โ
"You don't know it's a Dao cultivation method?"
"It's written on it. โ
"It's about how to disguise demonic energy. โ
โโฆโฆโ
โโฆโฆโ
The two looked at each other speechlessly.
"So over the years, you've actually cultivated the Dao Fa?"
Tan Li looked at him, also a little confused, and then nodded.
"Then you, you are practicing the Dao method in the Demon Sect, and you haven't been discovered yet...... What?"
Tan Li nodded again.
At this time, Zichen Qian was also a little confused.
"When you gave me that exercise, I thought it was your intention, so I practiced it......"
โโฆโฆโ
"Actually, the quality of that exercise book is very good, better than the one that the sect master gave me. โ
โโฆโฆโ
"Although I am a natural demon body, the speed of cultivating the Dao method will not be too slow. โ
Chen Qian still looked confused.
After a long time, he relieved himself and called.
"Tan Li. โ
"Huh?"
"How I feel, I feel like I've done something amazing from the beginning. โ
"Something awesome?"
Before Tan Li could react, he suddenly seriously stretched out his hand to hold Tan Li's beautiful face, his eyes were like torches, and his tone was firm.
"Very good, just keep it up, the day when you will unify the cultivation realm is just around the corner!"
Tan Li looked at him silently for a while, his face suddenly turned red again, and he hurriedly pulled the two hands off his face and pressed them back on the minister's legs, and lowered his head to continue the action of rubbing his legs.
"I will do what you wish for. He said this like a solemn promise.
"Alright. Chen Qian took his leg back, "My leg is no longer sore, let's go find a place to live." โ
Tan Li put down his hands that had become empty again, stepped forward and took his hand again, and said, "I have a cave." โ
"No, come with me there tonight. Chen Qian pointed to the riverbank pavilion in the distance where the bustle gradually dissipated, "I have something to do." โ
"Okay. Tan Li (self-thought) smiled dotingly and said gently, "I'll go wherever you go." โ
However, from the perspective of the ministers, the arrogant little beauty Tan Li first glanced at him aggrievedly, and then reluctantly compromised.
Chen Qian's heart was tight, and he was ready to apologize and coax people, but he didn't expect Tan Li to do it this time, and held his hand very well-behaved.
Well, he tried to pull his hand out, but he was held so tightly that he couldn't pull it out at all.
Looking back again, Tan Li smiled shyly.
Chen Qian silently turned his head and continued to lead the way in front.
It's all to blame Tan Li, it's too foul to look like this, and even his belt wants to bend into a spring every minute. _(:ะทใโ )_
After settling down, Chen Qian pulled Tan Li towards the place that had been marked before, the place where Fang had just had an argument with the woman in the yellow dress, the corridor full of lanterns.
At this time, it was getting late, and the streets that had been filled with tourists were empty, and there was no shadow of a living person to be seen.
Naturally, there is a curfew at night in the imperial city, but because of the festival, it is allowed to delay the curfew for a few hours on this special day, but at this time, it is already the time of curfew, and naturally there are no people on the street. Only a few dirty wild cats crouched on the walls and rooftops, as if waiting for something to arrive.
The lanterns in the corridor were taken away along with the decorations, and there was no sign of the lively scene not long ago, only the black and red blood that the woman in the yellow dress had spit out at the beginning still showed traces of potholes on the corroded ground.
Chen Qian remembered that the moment she broke the woman's long whip, something like a soul seemed to take the opportunity to burrow into her body. This soul gave him a very familiar feeling, judging by this situation, the woman in the yellow dress was afraid that she would soon be taken away by that soul.
Chen Qian didn't have the kindness to save her, after all, it was none of his business, he came for another thing.
To be precise, he came for that spirit.
Chen Qian could see the luck of other people, and the luck of the woman in the yellow dress was clearly so faint that it was about to disappear, which was a precursor to imminent death. After the wisp of soul penetrated into it, it immediately became extremely full, and the originally lifeless body suddenly revealed a burst of vitality.
No matter how powerful an ordinary soul is, it definitely doesn't have this effect of resurrecting the dead, not to mention, that soul seems to have an abrupt feeling that is incompatible with the whole world, which deepens the certain prediction in his heart.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for ......," Chen Qian looked at the wild cat that was still crouching on the wall and had never left, "a very unusual thing." โ
The wild cat meowed lazily, and it was a little scary to rest in the silence of the night.
Chen Qian took out the piece of soul-calming incense.
Then he took out the red lotus lantern again, carefully cut off a piece of the soul calming incense and placed it in the small tray inside.
With a slight fingertip in the air, the fire spiritual power gathered at one point in large density, and the incense was ignited, and after a few sparks appeared, the ethereal white smoke emitted from the lantern, and soon the entire corridor was swept in, but under the intentional control of the ministers, it did not spread outward.
"Is this the soul suppression incense?" Tan Li looked at the middle of the lantern, and a snow-white paste was burning slowly.
"It's soul incense. "Chen Qiandao," when I guessed the lantern riddle, an old man gave me this soul incense along with the lantern. โ
"How can a mortal have such a thing? Besides, looking at the color, this should be a piece that was just made, and the birth time is probably ......."
The small piece of soul-calming incense cut off was extremely pure milky white, and when it burned, it dissipated into the air little by little, and an extraordinarily quiet and elegant aroma lingered on the tip of the nose, refusing to disperse for a long time.
He looked at each other with the minister's eyes and said a sentence together.
"But twelve hours. โ
Natural soul-calming incense has a characteristic that when it is first condensed, the color is pure milky white. After twelve hours, its color changes, beginning to turn red, and finally to coagulated blood.
The old man said that he had won a bet with a rich man.
Chen Qian was already suspicious at that time, but seeing that the old man's expression did not seem to be fake, the strange thing was that the rich boy who lost the piece of incense in the bet.
On the contrary, it seems that the incense is deliberately left here, knowing that the old man does not understand the value of this incense, he will definitely give this as a prize and send it out with the lantern, the purpose may be to give the soul incense to the person who solves the puzzle.
Chen Qian pinched his chin and thought for a while.
"This incense has helped a lot. โ
He and Tan Li came here to guess the lantern riddle on a whim, and if he didn't intervene, the riddle would probably have to be solved by another person, and then get the piece of soul incense.
Chen Qian was able to guess the answer, not because of how smart he was.
To be honest, there is no answer to this riddle at all, otherwise so many smart people here would not have been able to come up with an answer for three years.
The reason why he can solve it is because the person who came up with this problem is himself.
When the old cucumber wrote a plot of the male protagonist in the world, he once asked for a tall riddle in the group of friends that was tall and difficult to think of an answer to set off the male protagonist's IQ. However, all kinds of strange riddles that everyone provided him were all passed, on the grounds that they were not forced enough.
Chen Qian replied slowly in the group at that time.
[This world: There is a riddle that is difficult to think of an answer to? What riddle has an answer, otherwise you just make a riddle without an answer, anyway, everyone doesn't know what the answer is, wouldn't it be good for you to let the protagonist talk nonsense for two reasons, so that it doesn't seem that the protagonist is very intelligent?
A small, fresh cucumber that is thick, long, and big: yes, it's really beautiful! That's it! But there is no answer to the riddle, so how to start?
This world: Simple, the riddle is the most difficult in this riddle, and the answer is that this riddle is unsolvable, so it will be.
A small, fresh cucumber that is thick, long and big: See! I'll write it!]
If he didn't guess wrong, this riddle should only be solved by his apprentice Zhong Mingming, but the book he saw did not mention this detail, and even the plot about the world was pitiful.
Now it seems that something is deliberately hidden, and it happens that the system does not want him to know.
Chen Qian watched as the smoke of the soul suppression incense gradually gathered, and finally turned into a snow-white human form, and then slowly condensed into the appearance of a woman.
"Probably, now, I found it. โ
The woman opened her eyes.
