Chapter 9: Frightened Birds

In a daze, I don't know how much time passed, Luo Qing's brain made a "bang", as if the handle of the "little hammer" knocked again, pushing him out of the trance. When I opened my eyes, I saw that the sky was already bright, and the vast vision of looking at the stars seemed to be still in front of me. The more I remember, the more vague it became. It's like a dream.

When a person looks inside, the qi, blood, muscles, and bones of his whole body are clean and flawless, and his organs are flexible and powerful. When a person's heart is moved, his true qi will be surging like a tide, and his heart will move again. That is, a person's body will become clear and soft, and his organs will be like a spring breeze.

There is no doubt that Luo Qing's achievements have improved, his physical condition has never been as good as it is now, and his control of his true qi has never been as arbitrary as it is today.

However, is there anything missing?

In Luo Qing's view, the leap to the realm of communion with God should be a crucial step in spiritual practice. This should be an incomparable evolution from the inside out, from the body to the spirit. Otherwise, how can we distinguish between monks and ordinary people?

So far, apart from the split in his mind, Luo Qing has not noticed the earth-shaking change he was expecting. Maybe it was a moonwalk last night, but it was too mysterious for him to feel unreal.

In addition, more serious problems await him.

Spiritual practice in the realm of communion with God is very different from spiritual practice in the "three levels of the common man." I remember when the Red Yin Goddess said that all spiritual practices were acquired with divine intervention. In order to continue to ascend in the realm of divine intervention, one must have a unique way of moving from acquired to innate, or abandon the previous method and practice the innate method directly.

The so-called innate method is also the "longevity method" controlled by the monks. However, Luo Qing couldn't find the legendary "longevity method", and he didn't know the magic method of "the bright moon of the nine palaces is really a wonderful method" the day after tomorrow. He still doesn't know how to go down the next path.

Of course, he was not discouraged, something like that, practiced independently for 12 years, and he encountered it I don't know how many times. This is the case with dispersed exercises. There are no teachers to teach, no experts to point out, and naturally no theoretical concepts. It's only when you're groping ahead until you're hit with a bloody head that you know there's no road ahead. Please stand back...

Get used to it.

Luo Qing was thinking and wanted to continue thinking, but in the surrounding pine forest, a voice came, and the sound became louder and louder.

He looked up impatiently, but there was a sudden jolt under his feet, as if the mountain was shaking. From his position, the birds of the forest could be seen flying in amazement, not confined to one corner, but the birds in this half of the forest suddenly appeared, like a dark cloud hanging over the pine forest, and the buzzing sound could even burst the eardrums.

What causes this effect?

Luo Qing concentrated, carefully lowered his body, and looked down from the edge of the depression.

I couldn't see the details in the woods from this angle, but when the mountain wind blew, Luo Qing faintly smelled a strange fishy smell. The strange reason is that the smell is not in harmony with the common smells of trees, grasses, birds, and animals in mountain forests, and is extremely pungent. It was only when it seeped into his nose that Luo Qing's heart rose uneasily, feeling that the dissidents who emitted such a smell were not like good people in any way.

The birds that can't hover over the forest seem to prove it.

Just as I was thinking, another scream came from below. A shrill voice echoed in the mountains. At that time, even the buzzing of birds was suppressed. Luo Qing felt intense fear and death in the screams, knowing that someone was finished.

Maybe the screaming was too loud. After the screams, there was an eerily silence in the forest. Of course, that is more likely to be Luo Qing's hallucination. However, he also felt that although the buzzing and chirping of the birds had not stopped, it seemed as if someone had died in the woods, and the guy waving the fishy smell was far away.

The birds and sparrows of the mountain came down in less than half an hour. Luo Qing didn't delay, turned over, and jumped from his hiding place.

The mountain breeze was filled with a faint smell of blood and a strong smell of burning. Luo Qing walked through the branches and leaves under its guidance. Soon he came to the vicinity of the accident site. To his surprise, there were already seven or eight people there.

However, these people are clearly absent-minded.

Luo Qing walked straight over and deliberately quickened his pace, but he didn't attract the other party's attention. It wasn't until he coughed softly that someone turned around and made a defensive gesture. Then, one by one, the group turned around and stood guard. This reaction was rather excessive.

However, judging by the speed with which they mobilized qi and blood, these people were at best long-term achievements and not dangerous. They look like ordinary herbalists.

A handful of herbalists found that Luo Qing was single and had burn marks on his body. He was a little embarrassed, and his vigilance naturally dropped. Luo Qing just walked up to him and introduced himself to the scattered people who had come to get the medicine. When he heard the sound, he came to check.

"It's a monster!"

This is the answer of the herbalist. When they said this, they were still worried, their eyes unconsciously glancing into the depths of the forest, trying to distance themselves from it.

Thinking of the pungent smell of fishy, Luo felt a little convinced.

In the four months he had been around the Dimoka Valley, he had learned that what Maude the Liar had said that night was not entirely unreliable. He often heard rumors that in the depths of the clouds and mist in the Dimoka Valley, there were some ferocious creatures that ordinary people could not imagine. They formed a world of their own. Despite their brutality and ferocity, they rarely set foot in the upper reaches of the Dimoka Valley. But as soon as someone provokes them, these ferocious things will catch up and vow not to stop until they kill.

However, compared to monsters, Luo Qing prefers to call them ferocious beasts, which is more in line with his cognition.

Luo Qing also asked about the appearance of the ferocious beast. The herbalists were vague and said that the ferocious beast was too fast to see clearly. All I know is that they are very big, they fly in the clouds, they drive in the fog. They command thunder and lightning. They are very rare.

Flying in the Clouds, Imperial Envoy Thunder Flame, Luo Qing had a hard time understanding this kind of thing, but he had already seen that all the herbalists behind him, holding the corpse sideways, glanced out through the wall, and felt that this person had died a miserable death, probably at the hands of the "devil".

"Your companion?"

Sudden questions, some nodded, some shook their heads.

Luo Qing smiled. He also saw two herbalists who had just risen from the corpses, still carrying something in their clothes. Maybe that's why.

He had no intention of robbing the deceased, but no matter what the herbalists thought, he said "I'm sorry" and continued to observe. Some herbalists get out of the way, others don't want to, and some even go straight to killing.

At this moment, Luo Qing glanced at the man moving next to him.

Catching the target so precisely, because at this time, he lit a lamp on the top door.

For Luo Qing, this feeling is very wonderful. Between moving and reading, the forehead suddenly heats up, and it seems that a light rises. A bean-sized lamp was lit overhead. It seemed as if the wind was blowing, but it still shone in the void. If the light is mentally placed on the target, the qi activity of the whole body will be adjusted to a state of readiness. If it doesn't move, it's going to be thunderous.

Everyone's faces on the other side changed.

The change in the herbalist's face was not due to the sudden change in Luo Qing's attitude, but the sudden feeling that the front of the little white face was more delicate than the woman's skin. After turning around, his height seemed to rise suddenly, and his body also expanded horizontally, as if it was completely inflated, so Wenxiu's face became hideous, so he stood high on the ground and stared at it.

However, if you look closely, the person is still the same person, not taller, not stronger, and there is no fierce expression on the face, but by this feeling, it is incomparably fierce.

In the middle of the herbalist, a man suddenly felt weakness in his hands and feet, so he sat down on the ground.

This person is the one who has just had bad thoughts. He's short and stiff, and he's good at hard work. He had just seized the opportunity to reap some benefits, but he was worried that the white-faced Taoist priest on the other side would spread it everywhere and bring disaster to his own family. Therefore, he secretly took out a knife and prepared to call his brother to go up and deal with the man.

Before Na Zhi could move, the white-faced Taoist priest suddenly turned around, his eyes were nailed directly to him, sharp as a knife, cutting out his heart, and his entire chest seemed to be hollowed out! The next breath didn't come up, and he was almost suffocated.

His companion fell to the ground, and the hearts of the herbalists were shaken. At this point, we can see everyone's thoughts. Some of them drew their swords, others moved backwards. Seven or eight of them look like seven or eight. The atmosphere in the forest suddenly became extreme, and chaos reached its extreme. Of course, that only applies to a handful of herbalists.

Luo Qing couldn't help but laugh at the reaction of this group of thugs.

He's in a good mood. This glimpse was not intentional, but spontaneous. The "lamp" that has just been lit was not found in the previous exercises, but it has a lot to do with the spirit. They are most likely unique changes after enlightenment. They need to be carefully studied in the future.

He left a heart, but he still had to solve the problem in front of him first. Needless to say, carrying the frightened and paralyzed evil spirit, in the direction of the body, walked forward, walked to the body, and squatted down to look.

No herbalist dared to act.

I saw the physical condition with my own eyes, and although Luo Qing thought he was brave, his neck was a little cold. This person's face has been smashed into pieces, not only the face, from the top of the head, there are not a few complete bones in the entire upper body, a little touch, plus the meat, it feels crispy, obviously pounded into this way by a strong external force.

From the posture of the corpse, he deduced that the person should have been blown away by the tremendous force, and quickly found the direction of the person's flight.

From his position, there was indeed a pine tree over there, broken from waist to waist. It won't fall down completely only if a nearby tree supports it. Looking deeper into the woods through the gaps between the broken trees, one can implicitly imagine how the people around him were beaten by ferocious beasts and crashed into the pine trees, and finally fell to this point and died.

At the same time, this also solves previous doubts. No wonder he found no trace of fierce fighting, and felt that there was only a small smell of ferocious beasts left in the forest. It turns out that this is not the first battlefield, and the real battlefield is still deep in the forest.

Luo Qing wrote down the location and looked down at the corpse. What caught his attention was that he gently took off his skirt, despite the fact that his clothes were messy after rummaging through the atria and the herbalist. Although he didn't know what the material was, he felt soft and tough, which was very valuable.

This kind of person does not like to collect medicines!
