Chapter 24—The Heart-Stealing Thief (3)
When Qing Ning and Senior Brother hurried to the Immortal Gate, they felt a hint of probing the Yuan Shen, and Wang Hui's merciless counterattack seriously injured the other party.
"It's pretty fast. Wang Hui pulled Qingning and hurriedly entered the Hafnium Immortal Gate, "You are in big trouble, don't go out for thirty years, you go to the mission hall to hand over the unfinished task of going out, and leave the task in the door." Don't go to your dog, it's not the time yet, it's safer for her to practice the body. Wang Yi left a message and left.
Qing Ning walked lonely on the overcrowded Xianmen righteous path, attracting a lot of attention.
"Look, she's back, what's wrong with Master Wang Zhi?" said a delicate female disciple.
"It's only been a few days since you've been out, can't you stand coming back?" said another beautiful female disciple.
Qing Ning went to the mission hall in the face of this group of criticism: "Elder Zhang, Master Zhang, Senior Brother Zhang." Qing Ning tentatively shouted for a while, and he didn't know what to call it, after all, whose hand did the task take, and who would be in charge of the handover.
"Ahem, what are you shouting, isn't the old man here?" Zhang Tian raised his eyes and looked at Qing Ning.
"Elder Zhang, this is the case, I will hand over the tasks, I have been confined to the Immortal Gate by my senior brother for thirty years, and I am afraid that these tasks will not be completed. Qing Ning said and took out five or six task cards and handed them over to Zhang Tian, the senior brothers and sisters in the hall looked sideways, and heard that the task cards were returned for the first time, this girl was too self-conscious, and even the simple ones that his senior brother picked for her couldn't be completed, and it was a complete waste.
Zhang Tian is also the first time to have such an operation, and after checking Qingning's task card, he found that there was one missing: "There is still one Hafnium Kyoto mission card missing, I'm afraid you lost it." "Zhang Tian is extremely embarrassed, this is really an ancestor.
"That, I'm done. Qing Ning then took out the task card and handed over the blood refining ant wrapped in rune paper.
Zhang Tian looked at the blood in the rune paper, and looked at it internally, three thousand years of blood refining ants, and was suddenly shocked, this girl is really lucky, Zhang Tian just received the task book, Elder Ouyang is looking for a thousand years of blood refining ants, and the demand is still relatively urgent, it is well known that Elder Ouyang wants to cultivate a strong bone pill for the geniuses in the clan, I am afraid it has something to do with it.
"It's such a thing? This thing is a bit special, you can remove the demon hall with me and hand it over. Zhang Tian left with Qing Ning, and there was a whisper behind him.
"What kind of task, can't the elders discern it? A mission hall disciple said.
"No, don't forget how they fooled the top-grade sword on the school ceremony last time. A disciple who had just completed the task said that this matter spread very quickly, and the Xianmen disciple was even more ashamed of Qing Ning's shamelessness.
"According to the rules of the Demon Eradication Hall, this blood refining ant you caught is to destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, and the body will be eliminated, but it just so happened that Elder Ouyang has just released the task of the thousand-year blood refining ant, and it is very difficult to find this, but this one in your hand is extremely suitable, you might as well discuss it with the Demon Eradication Hall." Zhang Tian was complacent.
"Can you still do this?" Qing Ning was a little confused, what kind of luck is this, to complete two tasks without much effort?
Zhang Tian told Qing Ning along the way, and suddenly felt a little worried about the old horseman in the Demon Hall, Zhang Sheng was stubborn and abnormal, but fortunately he stopped suddenly, stretched out his hand and twisted a thousand paper cranes out: "Go, find Old Man Ouyang, come to the Demon Elimination Hall, tell him about the three thousand years of blood refining ants, come as soon as you want." ”
Qing Ning is not uncommon to see this kind of trick, and he also understands that this matter is a bit difficult to handle today, otherwise Old Man Zhang would not have brought out another elder to cheer him on. Zhang Tian deliberately slowed down his pace and took Qing Ning around in a big circle in the Xianmen, for fear that Ouyang Lao'er would not be able to catch up, and when he and Qing Ning arrived at the Demon Elimination Hall, Ouyang Lao'er was fighting with Zhang Lao'er.
"Give me, three thousand years of blood refining ants. Ouyang Lao'er shouted.
"No, my Demon Slayer Hall has never received any low-grade beasts such as blood refining ants. Zhang Sheng shouted, "Even if there is, you can't take it away, what do you think of my demon exterminator." ”
"You give it to me, and you can open it as you like. Ouyang Lao'er said.
"yes, when I have it, I'll drive. Zhang Sheng pulled his throat.
The two of them are particularly interesting, they can feel the mutual dislike of these two people from the heart, and the legend is not that they don't get together?
"Ahem, that Senior Brother Zhang, the demon of Hafnium Kyoto that you sent has been caught. Zhang Tian shouted from afar.
"Really, what's it?" Zhang Sheng turned around and ignored Ouyang Lao'er, who was making trouble.
"It's a three-thousand-year-old blood refining ant. Zhang Tian took it from Qing Ning's hand and wanted to hand it to Zhang Sheng, but when Ouyang Lao'er heard it, he grabbed it directly in his hand.
"You caught the little girl, and I'll give you this. Ouyang Lao'er took out a piece of jade pendant and gave it to Qing Ning.
Qing Ning thought to himself, how can it be a jade pendant again, it looks like the texture is not bad, okay, anyway, it is white, Qing Ning stretched out his hand to take it, so Zhang Sheng was very dissatisfied.
"Ouyang Lao'er, what are you doing, you still have to be shameless, how can you be like this, openly robbing my demon slaying hall in front of everyone's eyes. Zhang Sheng was furious and shouted, many disciples were so frightened that they fled directly from the hall, everyone in the Xianmen knew that these two elders had not dealt with each other for hundreds of years, as if the two of them were once rivals in love, so they didn't dare to think about it, and they slipped away, and there were four people left in the hall in an instant.
"I just issued a task a few days ago, I don't believe you ask Senior Brother Zhang. "Elder Ouyang knows that he is at a loss.
"Shameless child, bring me the blood refining ants. Zhang Sheng started his hand as he spoke, and Elder Ouyang seemed to have been prepared to do so as well.
"After so many years, Lao Tzu wanted to beat you up. Elder Ouyang's fist landed on Zhang Sheng's chest. Zhang Sheng spat blood from his mouth, and retreated step by step, Qing Ning couldn't bear to look directly at how this was fighting with the scoundrels in the market, it was too martial arts, did the immortals fight like this, and was there a difference between them and the heroes of the mortal world?
"You shameless thief, if you hadn't provoked Senior Sister Chu back then, would Senior Sister have died tragically?" Zhang Sheng was forced to retreat again and again, Ouyang Lao'er pressed step by step, his palm fist and spiritual source were attached, and he smashed into Zhang Sheng's heart, Zhang Sheng just stood there and let him smash it, without making any resistance.
"Senior Sister Chu, I'm sorry for her, if you want to feel uncomfortable, you can beat it. Zhang Sheng didn't even run the protective air shield around him, he just wanted to make the pain more intense, the feeling of self-blame, pain and sadness, overflowing with words, tears were left in the corners of his eyes, and slowly and impartially fell on the fist of Elder Ouyang.
As soon as he heard about the heart thief, Qing Ning instantly came to the spirit, what kind of heart thief is it, these days it is really linked to the heart thief, looked at the rune paper wrapped in blood refining ants in Elder Ouyang's arms, there is also a heart thief in it, Qing Ning thought to himself, it is another child love that cannot be shaken off, it is sad and sad, Zhang Tian noticed Qing Ning's compassionate expression and suddenly had a toothache, little ancestor, you have something to say, "squeezing your eyebrows" at Qing Ning for a while, Qing Ning felt that he could not escape, so he had to clear his throat and said.
"I'm here to hand over the task of eliminating the demon hall, this blood refining ant, committed more than 30 crimes before and after Hafnium Kyoto, the main means is to eat the heart, and the termites that followed the crime have been corrected by the monks on the spot, because they didn't collect the demon bag, they had to use rune paper to collect it, Elder Zhang is not strange. After Qingning finished speaking, Ouyang Lao'er noticed the talisman paper in his hand, and the temporary talisman was very powerful.
"You drew it?" Ouyang Lao'er didn't want to hear Qing Ning's affirmative answer.
"The little girl has studied the art of rune paper. Qing Ning tactfully avoided answering.
"Yes, yes, good to teach. Ouyang Lao'er stroked his beard.
"Well, that's good. Zhang Sheng agreed, but his eyes kept on the rune paper ball.
Zhang Sheng took advantage of Ouyang Lao'er's carelessness and snatched the rune paper ball, and used voyeurism to check what the blood refining ants had done in recent months.
"You are so shameless and despicable. After Zhang Sheng finished the investigation, he came to this conclusion about the blood refining ants.
"That's not as good as you. Ouyang Lao'er said that Zhang Sheng obviously didn't want to deal with this guy.
"You did a good job, if you didn't stop it, I'm afraid that the entire Hafnium Kingdom would not be enough for this monster to transform into a shape. Zhang Sheng looked terrifying, and reached out to wipe the blood stains on his mouth.
"This blood refining ant, the heart is not right, if you take medicine, there may be hidden dangers, but it is not impossible for you to let him suffer the sin of this Dan furnace. If I make an exception for you today, it will not be easy to deal with the monster in the future, you take your alchemy furnace and come to the Demon Removal Hall to refine him, this is my biggest concession, he must be severely punished by the Demon Elimination Hall and disappear from this world forever. Zhang Sheng said awe-inspiringly, as if there was an illusion of how generous he was.
In fact, in Qing Ning's opinion, this Elder Zhang Sheng wants to sell Elder Ouyang a face, the legal principle is nothing more than human favors, and it is true that he owes Ouyang something, and he should always make up for it. I think back then, if Senior Sister Chu hadn't received that palm for me, she wouldn't have died, and at most she would have survived by that palm, and it was I who caused Ouyang to lose her childhood sweetheart, Zhang Sheng regretted.
However, with a wave of Elder Ouyang's backhand, the Dan Furnace appeared in the hall, and Zhang Sheng thought to himself, "This shameless bastard has long been prepared to forcibly refine such a monster in my Demon Slaying Hall, so he is shameless." ”
"Hmph, it's less than one ten-thousandth of what you were back then. Elder Ouyang seemed to have seen through what Zhang Sheng was thinking.
Qingning is not easy to interject, the two elders quarreled, and it seemed to be revealed between the lines that these two people were best friends before, because the woman turned her face, Qingning seemed to find a new continent like surprise, this kind of small talk book in the world, was vividly interpreted by these two elders, Qingning even imagined that they had depended on each other for their lives, reading hard in the cold window, smelling the chickens and dancing, practicing in summer, practicing cold nine in winter, bosom friends, drinking and talking, until one day a young girl appeared, so the three of them staged "He loves her, she loves him, he loves her" The love triangle relationship, Qing Ning was still immersed in the story of the three of them, and was slapped on the head by Elder Zhang Tian with the booklet in his hand.
"This little Qingning is really terrible, you shouldn't listen to foul language, you don't learn well at a young age, you should be beaten. In Zhang Tian's heart, Qingning is a little doll, spoiled by the master and the senior brother, she should be innocent and innocent, and she shouldn't learn these inconsequential things. In his opinion, Elder Ouyang and Elder Zhang Sheng, the two of them are young and frivolous, prodigal fox friends and dog friends, two things that are not in tune when they are old, they are simply born with good qualifications, although the two of them are slack in cultivation, they can barely mix with elders to survive, but unfortunately their qualifications are generally reluctantly in charge of the task hall, which is really more popular than people.
Qing Ning originally wanted to leave, but later found that Elder Ouyang was refining the god speed, and he didn't drive himself away, so let's stay and see, anyway, it doesn't cost money to see, such an evil thing is indeed a waste of food to live in the world, and I am also curious about what kind of material this kind of thing can be cultivated. Looking at it, he was unconsciously a little fascinated, as if he could feel the flow of breath in the Dan furnace, not to be precise, Qing Ning could see it clearly.
Inside the Dan furnace, the smoke and fire are burning, and the inner tank in the center is placed with the blood refining ant wrapped in the rune paper, Qing Ning rubbed his eyes, and saw it more clearly, the rune paper was red, as if burning, but the shape was not hurt in the slightest, Qing Ning's eyes were hard to see that the blood refining ants inside were roasted all over the body without scorching, as if they were also using internal force to maintain the barrier around the body, Qing Ning was fascinated, Zhang Tian and Zhang Sheng were just surprised, "This little girl, have you never seen the Dan furnace?" Indeed, Ouyang Lao'er's Dan furnace was too luxurious, and it fascinated the little girl's eyes. The two of them had no idea that Qing Ning could see the grand scene inside the Dan furnace.
In this way, Elder Ouyang knew about carrying the Dan Furnace to the Demon Elimination Hall, and even the head of the family was glad that the two of them had finally reconciled as before, Qing Ning saw that Elder Ouyang had done nothing, so he didn't stare at the Dan Furnace, so he received the points of the Demon Elimination Hall, and went back to find Senior Brother with Elder Ouyang's jade pendant happily.
"Ah, don't refine me, I still have to live. "There was a roar from the Dan furnace of Elder Ouyang of the Demon Elimination Hall, the spiritual power of the blood refining ants was almost consumed at this time, and the protracted battle was only when the spiritual power was exhausted, and this kind of torture made him extremely uncomfortable, so he had to make this decision, surrender and beg for mercy, isn't the world like this to immortal cultivators.
"Live wool, what are you doing not stealing hearts, the old man hates stealing thieves the most in his life. Elder Ouyang shouted at the Dan furnace. Elder Ouyang took the opportunity to say this to Zhang Sheng, friends and wives can't be bullied, you Zhang Sheng don't honestly kidnap my fiancée.
"Ah, it's so painful, you can just kill me. The Blood Refining Ant shouted frantically.
"Killing you is not enough to make the people angry, and you can bear your own karma, after all, you are more effective in refining medicine like this. Ouyang Lao'er said and smiled. "Little, the thief who steals my heart falls into my hands, and I won't torture you to death. What you can't do, don't steal your heart, there are thousands of evil deeds in the world, you don't steal your heart, Lao Tzu hates stealing thieves the most in his life. Let you die well, I won't be your grandfather. ”
"The old man is angry, and the old man is angry. Blood refining ants, after saying two words, there was no movement, and Zhang Sheng curiously probed his divine sense.
"I was so angry that I was dead from menopause. "Zhang Sheng is incredible, Old Man Ouyang really has to stay away, he can kill an old monster for three thousand years with one mouth, if he lets himself kill this old monster, it will indeed take some energy.
