Chapter 51: Making a fuss about the dead
Gu Xiaowu was sitting on a stone, and in one hand was condensing a complicated pattern and text, this character was the one he had condensed once. Even if it has been condensed once, it is still very difficult to condense it the second time, and the strokes on it are actually more than a dozen twists and turns, but it is very difficult to control the mana condensation and twists every time. Xiao Wu finally came to the conclusion that his current realm cultivation was not enough, and he could not skillfully use the control mana, but now he had no exercises to improve his cultivation, so he could only try to cultivate spells and this condensation character, so that he could also improve his strength. Ten days of hard work was not in vain, he had already condensed this character once, and as soon as the condensation was successful, the character was sucked into it by the spirit cave to merge with the first time. In the end, Xiao Wu found that the rune in the bubble of the spirit cave became a little more stable and clear, if he condensed it a few times, it should be completely stable, and Xiao Wu never gave up condensing the characters with this idea.
He hadn't been back to the cave for ten days, and since that time he made Kou Yuhuan angry, the two had never talked to each other again, of course, the other party had been ignoring him, and finally Xiao Wu had to hide outside to cultivate. Of course, it's not that he's afraid of seeing each other, but the month period is approaching, he doesn't know if there will be a monk from the Liu family who will come here to investigate, it stands to reason that the Liu family should notify the other Guji elders who are outside, but Xiao Wu is not at ease, for him, the Liu family is really not a reliable family. He also asked Kou Yuhuan about the hostile characters who were fighting with her, it turned out to be Liu Sifeng and the two fourth elders and six elders who were guarding the fortress outside, and there were even more elders who secretly supported them, among which Liu Yuanjie, who was known as the first core disciple of the Liu family, was the one who helped Liu Sifeng capture Kou Yuhuan, and even abolished her hands and feet meridians on the spot, and now the scar on her face is also the person's masterpiece. Xiao Wu naturally didn't want to avenge Kou Yuhuan, he still had self-knowledge, and with his own cultivation powers, he couldn't fight against any of them at all. He also asked Kou Yuhuan several times if he wanted revenge, but he got a few big eyes, "Why do you want to take revenge if I can't even save my life?"
Bang, the characters in his hand were scattered again, and as soon as distracting thoughts rose in Xiao Wu's heart, he couldn't condense it successfully, he simply stood up and looked at the village in the distance, where people were packing up the day's harvest and rushing home, because it was already dark. I looked at the cave on the nearby stone wall again, and the outside of the cave at this time had been made of wooden planks by Xiao Wu, which was considered a complete stone house.
He walked towards the village, and it was time to harvest the day's output, but he didn't go far before he noticed a little flash of light at the mouth of the valley in the south. After a while, a brilliant white light floated to the front of the medicine garden, and it turned out to be a white veil-shaped wind magic weapon, similar to the one he had seen used by the two people in Mingya Valley, and there was a big man about forty years old standing on it.
When the big man got closer, he also saw Gu Xiaowu standing in front of the wooden building, so he put away the magic weapon and hugged his fist at Xiao Wuyi.
"Haha, this should be Elder Gu, disrespectful and disrespectful, Liu Shifeng from Qingmu Village is below, passing by Lingshi Valley today, so I came to visit. ”
"It turned out to be the Sixth Elder, and he was disappointed below. ”
"I don't know if I can ask for a cup of tea here with Taoist friends? You and I will help each other, and we will have to communicate often in the future. ”
"This --, fellow Daoist, please come with me. ”
Xiao Wu took the elder to a thatched hut and stopped, and invited the big man to sit down at the low table under the straw hut, and with a wave of his hand, two teacups and a wine jug appeared on the table.
"Fellow Daoist, this place is simple, and I don't know how to use this sake to invite Fellow Daoist to take a sip?" Xiao Wu said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter, it turns out that Taoist friends are also wine lovers, I have two jars of spiritual wine in the village, if Taoist friends are interested, then send Taoist friends an altar. ”
"Then thank you Daoyou for your kindness, my wine is just ordinary water wine, don't be surprised by Daoyou. ”
"I look at the scene here, could it be that Daoist friends usually cultivate in this thatched hut?"
"That's right, alas, Daoyou should have heard that not long after his wife died, I just could accompany him more. Xiao Wu's eyes fell on the side of the thatched hut, where there was a small tomb, and the tombstone erected in front of it was engraved with "Beloved Wife-Kou Yuhuan".
Liu Shifeng naturally saw this tomb a long time ago, not to mention how uncomfortable he was, he didn't expect this ancient elder to be so infatuated, this is what it looks like to guard the tomb for three years.
"I heard that Daoyou was once a disciple of the Red-clothed Ancestor, so he should be very proficient in Dan Dao. ”
"Fellow Daoist, this would be wrong, I have only practiced under the red-clothed ancestor for a period of time, and I am only a registered disciple, and I have never been involved in the way of alchemy, just watching other people's alchemy on the side. ”
"Alas, it's a pity, the red-clothed ancestor is also a famous alchemy master in the immortal cultivation world today, but he didn't expect to have an accident and fall, he really lost the way of alchemy! ”
"Daoist friends can't say that, there is still one person under the red-clothed ancestor, and the way of alchemy has also been truly transmitted. ”
"Oh, Daoyou refers to Xin but Daoyou, didn't he also fall with the Ancestor?"
"It's not either, it's just a legend, and you can see its corpse?"
"No one has seen the bodies of the two men, it's all news from the north. How did I forget, Daoist friends should know better than anyone else, right?"
"Alas, I also just entered back then, the details are not clear, and in the end, I only escaped by relying on my cleverness, the red-clothed ancestor was chased and killed by the enemy at Yizhi Peak, and Xin was nowhere to be seen, and the treasure of the red-clothed ancestor was missing, I just luckily picked up the ancestor's storage bag. ”
"What? That's the case, then why didn't Kou Yuhuan dare to say it directly?-- uh, don't blame Daoyou, it's a gaffe." ”
Huan'er didn't know the specifics, she was banned at the time. Besides, she should also be trying not to implicate me!" Xiao Wu specifically asked Kou Yuhuan how she explained the matter between herself and him at Yizhifeng, Kou Yuhuan only explained the matter of her cooperation with herself, and did not say that Hongyi and Xin Ke died, after all, the cause of death is now a mystery, and no one will believe it if it is said that they will die together. And Xiao Wu considered that the Liu family would still test himself, so he prepared an explanation and put Xin up for them to find out.
"It's really an honor for Daoist friends to be able to tell you about such secrets, Elder Gu rest assured, I won't reveal this news to other clans. ”
"It's nothing, since I have become a member of the Liu family, I naturally have to consider the family, my identity will be found out sooner or later, and the people of Mingya Valley should also know the existence of Xin Ke and me, they may have found Xin Ke. "It's best to be able to divert the attention of the Liu family to other places, at least next, the Liu family should go back to investigate the Mingya Valley, this trick to make a fuss about the dead was proposed by Kou Yuhuan.
Next, Liu Shifeng changed the topic and laughed with Xiao Wu for a while, and then saw that it was dark before he woke up and left in a hurry. Xiao Wu watched a piece of white light go away before releasing the treasure inkstone to fly to the village to collect the ore, and instructed the chief to order that from tomorrow, all the laborers who could open the mine could go to the mine and take revenge.
Xiao Wu flew to the front of the stone cave, knocked on the wooden door a few times before opening the door and jumped in, everything in the stone house was still the same as a few days ago, Kou Yuhuan's cultivation at this time had recovered to the fourth layer of qi induction, and the speed was also very fast. He sat on the bed across from him and looked at each other, but he didn't speak directly.
"Say anything, really. ”
"You're not angry?"
"I'm going to be so angry, I was angry with you as early as when I was your master at Yizhifeng. ”
"Aren't you and I worried that the Liu family will come to tempt you? I just sent one away. ”
"Who?"
"Sixth Elder Liu Shifeng"
"Don't underestimate him, although he is only in the early stage of consolidating the foundation, he has great magical powers in cultivation, and he is also very shrewd. ”
"I know, I don't want to fight with him, but I just took him to the thatched hut to drink a glass of water and wine as you said before, and said what was ready. ”
"I haven't seen you practice the Fa, what's going on?
"Oh, well, I haven't been able to comprehend the second layer of Rong Yuandue, and the operation of the exercises has not been effective. ”
"Show me again, I only studied the first layer at the time. ”
"Here, I wanted to give it to you when you're better. ”
Kou Yuhuan took the bamboo slip and looked at it for a long time, asked a few more questions, and finally shook his head and said: "No, I can't answer your questions for a while now, and there are a few things I don't understand, so let's talk about it when I go back and think about it." ”
"Don't worry, I'm practicing a few spells now, and I'm going to improve my strength first, and now I can only fight with ordinary Guji Dou in the early stage to ensure that I am undefeated. Next, I am going to open another hole next to it, so that the two of us can cultivate with peace of mind and not interfere with each other, here I have prepared food, water and other daily necessities, and I also have cultivation skills, if there is anything else, you can call me directly. ”
"Okay, you can do it. ”
