This sentence was spoken, and it was loud and clear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A fleeting bright color flashed in his restrained eyes, and he used his eyes that had carefully distinguished countless good and evil meanings over the years, looking at the wind in front of him, grateful for her righteousness, and at the same time he couldn't believe that such words came from the mouth of such a little girl who met in Pingshui.
Since the sect has suffered a huge accident, he has been on the verge of life and death countless times, bloodshed, healing, it is probably an ordinary thing, and he has long been accustomed to the feeling of dying, the mainland world, the rivers and lakes are vast, mortals are tired of self-preservation, even when he was chased to the point of almost despair, he never had the luxury of hoping that anyone could take the initiative to help him.
This time, he went down the mountain to look for medicine, and on the way back encountered the "Pillow Pavilion" of the investigation and pursuit, he was forced to helpless, chose the way to flee to the vicinity of this town, thinking that there is a well-known dance shopkeeper in the rivers and lakes, or can get her to help cover it, hide here for half a morning, heal and change clothes, so as to get back on the road.
Unexpectedly, before he stepped into the town, he smelled the bloody wind floating in the air, and he didn't expect that when he saw a place across the city, he didn't have much hope, just wanted to hide for a moment, but met this girl who was as bright as a child's heart.
His chest rose and fell slightly with a subtle but slightly stronger than normal breathing, and he was grateful in his heart, but he didn't say thank you directly. I don't say thank you for my kindness, and that's probably how I feel.
He just looked at the girl in front of him.
After removing the dusty wind and leaning, it suddenly became extraordinarily bright and moving.
She was already very beautiful, and at this time there was even more of a look, which touched Ji Li, and touched the place where he had already abandoned.
Feng Yiluan saw that he didn't speak, but only looked at himself, so he stretched out his palm and shook it twice in front of his eyes, laughed, his eyes were like stars, and said: "Jili, you didn't let me call your brother, the few tricks you just beat people, swish like that, teach me okay?"
Ji Li came back to his senses from his gratefulness, and instantly changed to a solemn complexion, and refused: "No." ā
"Why?" Feng Yiluan was rejected so directly, but he was not angry.
Ji Li looked at her with gloomy eyes, and said: "Because it is very dangerous to learn, even if you only learn a little bit, even if you just practice qi, just to strengthen your body, once you are found and noticed by those 'sweeping envoys', you will be arrested and imprisoned in the prison of 'Pillow Pavilion'." Second, the exercises of this sect cannot be passed on casually. ā
"Oh, Master always refuses to teach me, for the same reason as your first one, saying that if you learn it, you will be arrested and killed, but he has never said why, nor has he said what kind of people will be arrested. ā
"Do you have a master?" said Jili was surprised again.
Feng Yiluan said: "Yes, my master also knows some spells that seem to me to be very harmful, and yours seems to be different, I have seen it a few times, but he never refused to teach me, and he never recognized him as a monk, master always said that he was just a painter." Feng Yiluan said, and changed to an expression of sudden realization: "Speaking of which, it turns out that you were hunted down for this reason?"
"Yes. He nodded.
"Then do you often kill people like this, destroy corpses, and destroy traces?" Feng Yiluan may have just asked casually.
Ji Li explained seriously: "No, this is the first time, and today is a last resort." Every time I used to go down the mountain, I would restrain my breath and avoid these 'sweepers' as much as I could, and if I couldn't dodge, I would pretend to resist with the clumsy means of mortals, and deliberately let them cut me and pretend to be seriously injured and die, and when they left, I would get up and run away, or try my best to escape with injuries, so that they would no longer suspect that I was a monk. Therefore, I always have enough medicine to stop bleeding and wounds, as long as I don't get hacked to death, I can save myself and restore my body to its original state. ā
Feng Yiluan heard these things that should have been painful, but said: "Oh, as the saying goes, professionally pretending to be dead and healing for thirty years? No wonder your hemostatic and muscle-building medicine is so magical! But since you have experienced so much harm, you can kill people with one blow, and those people are not your opponents at all, why do you always have to hide?"
He looked at the man in front of him who was sometimes awe-inspiring, sometimes acting righteous and proud, sometimes lively and lovely, and said in his heart, she is still a little girl after all.
He gently continued: "The original intention and purpose of Xiuzhen is not to kill people, of course, this is a moral statement. Actually, it's because every time I go down the mountain to do something important, I can't break the right thing to resist, just hide for a while, as long as I can get out. Therefore, I can't use any magic techniques, I have to behave very weakly, and I can't admit and expose that I am a cultivator, otherwise, there will be a higher 'Feiyi' to arrest me, and when the time comes, I will have to deal with the bigger troubles that will follow......"
Ji Li said this, but there was a faint worry lingering in his heart.
Early this morning, he got up early and hurried to the road, and on the way he encountered eight sweeping envoys who set up a card check on the way, but he still used the usual method, first running away half a mile, and then being injured and pretending to be dead. After pretending to be dead, the sweepers just refused to leave, standing beside him and chatting, he saw that he had lost too much blood, so he could only get up and run away again, so he was chased all the way for more than ten miles.
In fact, he was already exposed, because ordinary people were injured like this, and it was impossible for them to run such a long distance again.
It's just that he has a good way of reining his breath, so these eight pursuers don't know what kind of monk he is, hopefully, before they are destroyed, they haven't had time to report to their superiors, otherwise, I don't know how many dangers will be in the future......
Feng Yiluan listened to him explain a lot, thought about it, but asked, "Their superiors, should be called 'wipe the table, right?'"
Ji Li was originally gloomy, but he was amused by this sentence, and laughed out loud: "No, in the Pillow Pavilion, the lowest level is called the sweeping envoy, and the highest rank is called the long envoy, and four 'dustless clothes' are set up under the long envoy, who are in charge of the Quartet, and the rest, between the 'dustless clothes' and the 'sweeping messenger', regardless of the official rank and cultivation level, are collectively called 'jade', which is characterized by purple finches sewn on the left sleeve, the more finches they have, the higher their official rank, or the more monks they have caught." ā
"Oh, it sounds complicated, and it's strange, it's not the same as the local rank you're usually hearing about. Why would they do this? They all wore emerald clothes, with purple feathers on their sleeves? It's ugly when you put the two colors together. Feng Yiluan asked and commented.
Master should have known these things, but he never told her.
Ji Li did not answer the question about the style of clothes, only said: "Because the spirit stone resources on the continent are limited, and the resources of heaven and earth treasures required for all kinds of cultivation are also limited, so the dynasty has gradually restricted the cultivation of mortals other than the royal family and nobles since more than 900 years ago, in order to collect all the resources in the hands of the royal family and the royal family.
So the dynasty set up the Pillow Pavilion, which means that the Holy Emperor can rest easy, and the mission of the Pillow Pavilion is to set up checkpoints everywhere to investigate and arrest the so-called wild cultivators, and every few decades, it will be fully dispatched and hunted down on a large scale.
"So I am the so-called Ye Xiu, and your master should be the same. Your master is right, the path of cultivation is not only long and obstructive, but once you set foot on this road, you will always become the target of the dynasty's arrest, and you will always face countless life and death tests and hardships. ā
