Chapter 54: A Farewell Feast
Human luck is like this, sometimes you will encounter bad news, bad things for the team, such as Chen Si's death, and sometimes, people will meet good luck, as it is now.
A few months after the end of the Battle of Wutai Mountain, Li Qing went to the vicinity of the capital and met with Zhu Hong and the others who stayed there—since they received the notice of detention, they knew that Li Qing and the others had completed their mission. The task was completed but no one could guess the reason, and after meeting at this moment, they naturally exchanged information that both sides knew.
No one knows the reason for the battle, probably because the dust in the sky obscured Ding Kun's figure and there were no witnesses, and the scene was too fierce because the battle was too fierce, it had turned into a cloud of dust, and there was no trace of the battle at all - in the end, Shushan could only characterize it as a fight after the birth of the big demon, and the death of the Sword Saint and the Wine Sword Immortal was also blamed on the "monster" who had never existed.
Then Shushan looked for Li Qing and others for a while, after all, the news of the big demon in Wutai Mountain came from Li Qing's side - although Shushan did not have the ability to find traces of a conspiracy after the war, but as one of the largest forces in this land, they could still trace the source of the matter.
Li Qing and the others disappeared for several months, avoiding their pursuit, and the Shushan side also firmly believed that Li Qing and the others were dead. After all, people of the level of Sword Saint and Wine Sword Immortal could not escape death, and it was even more impossible for others to survive, and finally after they found Zhu Hong to understand some of the situation, the matter here gradually stopped with the passage of time.
But for the sake of safety, Li Qing still doesn't plan to return to the capital, after all, after the big demon was born, after killing the Sword Saint and the Wine Sword Immortal, there is no movement, it's good to say that the time is short, after all, the monster also needs to heal from his injuries, but after a long time, some people will feel that they can't say it - the statement that they will end up together is too far-fetched, not everyone will completely believe in the small probability of the event, so it will be strange for the big demon to disappear inexplicably, if Li Qing and others rashly appear again, there will definitely be another wave of investigation.
Therefore, after Li Qing only understood the situation, he asked Zhu Hong to inform the "Lin Yueru" in the city that he was not dead, and then left the capital.
"What are your plans for the future?" In the night of farewell, there were three people, one was Zhu Hong, another was a man with a big sword on his back, and a woman with a dagger - they were all later trialists, and since they cooperated with Li Qing, there were no more deaths on their side.
"Well, let's go back and cultivate first." Li Qing thought for a while, "In the last few days, I'm going to go to the Lock Demon Tower to have a look." ”
"Do you want to go to the Demon Lock Tower?" After listening to Li Qing's words, Zhu Hong expressed surprise, "You are a smart person, I won't say some things around the corner, to put it bluntly, although you are very strong, I don't think you can even complete the third task." The battle in Wutai Mountain, although I haven't experienced it personally, but judging from the words that came over, the Sword Saint should be very, very powerful, and should be much more powerful than Qian Daoren, he is just a low-level demigod, and between the inferior demigods and the inferior demigods, the difference in strength can be 1o times, so if you jump a level, the middle demigods should not be something you can deal with. ”
"Yes, you're right, but we're still going in." Li Qing nodded, "But if you go in, you don't necessarily have to fight the King of Prison Ming, and even the Heavenly Ghost Emperor won't touch it, I'm going for the little goblin." Alas......"
Li Qing said this and sighed deeply.
"I was still a little conceited before, but I didn't expect that the difficulty jump between each task would be so big. 20,000 Red Ghost King, 30,000 Moon Worship Sect Master and Water Demon Beast, the difference is 150,000 points, the difficulty is several times greater, and the later 1o60,000, I should have to imagine, how high the difficulty is, I should have counted the Wine Sword Immortal, I miscalculated......"
A few months later, Li Qing still blames herself.
"Alas, no one is a god, forget it......" Zhu Hong patted Li Qing, "Did you really not notify Lin Yueru to let her come to you?" ”
"Well, it's not safe to follow us, and I'm going to leave in a few months, and I'm going to leave after all." Li Qing smiled, "Let's say goodbye to her directly when you really want to leave."
After saying this, on the edge of the wilderness dozens of miles outside the capital, Li Qing nodded goodbye to the other people, and left directly.
"It's really amazing, in the sixth mission, you can turn over the demigods, and you can fly." The trialist with the big sword looked at Li Qing, his face full of envy, "The next task, he can also spend it so easily." ”
"Space doesn't give anyone an easy task, otherwise it wouldn't be named death." Zhu Hong looked at the sky, "The space should give him other tasks, and if you want to be relaxed, you also think too much......"
Time flies.
After returning to the mountains, Li Qing and the others did not look for monsters in a big way in this year--in the previous year--more than a year ago, they had already seized all the clues that could be found, and there was a lot of noise outside, so it was better for everyone to be quiet. In the past year or so, Li Qing and the others have been cultivating, and unlike the last year or so, the fastest entry this time is Li Qing himself - after all, compared to Ding Kun and Zhang Qinliang's lack of cultivation skills, Li Qing has the most witchcraft and spells in his mind, and he himself is very smart and has a lot of stamina, and after touching the doorway, he is growing steadily.
The second is Zhizhi, she works harder than Li Qing, in addition to cultivation every day, she is cultivation, and she enters the realm very quickly.
Chen Si's corpse began to decompose in this year's time, after all, the years are ruthless, no matter how good you freeze, no matter how high your physique is, your body will still festered a little bit, the temperature on the top of the mountain here is not too low to be too outrageous, and Li Qing also advocated going into the ground for peace, and buried Chen Si's body a few months later, so that this companion can sleep in the ground.
The years in the mountains are calm, flowing like a stream, and only the sound of "trickling" is the response, which is not magnificent at all.
A year is about to pass, and within the deadline for the task reward, Li Qing packed up and traveled alone to the capital to find Lin Yueru to say his final goodbye.
For a year, the girl did not leave the capital and returned to her hometown of Suzhou, and still lived in that inn - the small courtyard rented out was still clean, and Li Qing was still the same when she left, and she was still the same when she returned.
It seems that the time of the year has not passed here. After Li Qing came back, Lin Yueru didn't ask anything, didn't ask him where he was going, and didn't ask where he was going in the future, she just quietly boiled him a pot of chicken soup, then copied two plates of side dishes, bought pastries, and had a quiet meal with Li Qing.
The two chatted about family life, Lin Yueru drank wine, her face was flushed, and she was as mellow as the moon.
Li Qing came and went quickly, and before leaving that night, Lin Yueru only left her two words.
The first sentence is - "Waiting for you." ”
The second sentence is - "No matter how long." ”
Then, he saw off with a smile, his lips white, but no tears.
After taking one last look at Lin Yueru, Li Qing knew that he didn't know if there would be a day to turn back, kissing and saying goodbye, Li Qing knew that if he didn't move forward and reached the end, he would never be able to turn back and come to the starting point of this journey. Cowards live in memories, but warriors have to break the waves.
So Li Qing's farewell words are only two sentences.
"I'll definitely come back"
"Do the best I can"
After bidding farewell to Lin Yueru, Li Qing and the team gathered together and set up, all the way to the south, and came to the Shushan boundary.
Their last journey was naturally the Lock Demon Tower.
The mountain where the Shushan Mountain Gate is located and the mountain where the Town Demon Tower is located face each other across the mountain, and there is only an iron chain in the middle as a "bridge" to pass through. After Li Qing and the others came here, they sneaked directly into the peak where the Lock Demon Tower was located. The ordinary Shushan disciples at the foot of the mountain are naturally not enough to show Li Qing and the others, the high-end and core forces of Shushan are all within the Shushan Mountain Gate, and there are very few disciples on the side of the Lock Demon Tower-except for the low-level patrol disciples at the foot of the mountain, there is almost no defensive power.
This is easy to understand, the Lock Demon Tower has a large array of guards that cannot be destroyed from the outside, and ordinary people - no one has the heart to enter the tower without a way to be a human or a goblin. This has created a situation where this place is important to say, but not well guarded.
This is the place of death.
No one wants to put their forces in charge of the entrance to hell.
Li Qing and the others came to the Lock Demon Tower very easily, and then stunned the two elders who were guarding the gate, touched a qiē thing on his body, and then entered the gate of the Lock Demon Tower.
The gate of the lock demon tower is a purple halo, and the plaque in front of the door has only one line of words: "Tube in, no matter out". Obviously, this door is a single passage, and if you want to get out after entering, you have to break the tower, these Li Qing and the others all understand, they are not ready to really break the tower, and now there is not much time before the end of the mission, and when they enter it, they will naturally pull them out when they wait for time and space - there is no need to break the seven dragon pillars, and they don't have the strength.
After searching the elders guarding the door, Li Qing and the others stepped into the purple gate, and after the familiar feeling of space replacement, there were two heavens outside the door and inside the door. Entering is a huge wide corridor, the corridor is mediocre crowded with all kinds of things, crowded Cheng Dù and even Li Qing just entered with his front feet, he stepped on a pig-headed donkey-faced goblin, the guy was looking back in a daze, and a ghost beside him was the first to smell blood.
"People are people, people are the smell of people" The ghost screamed with excitement the moment Li Qing entered-this scream was even more excited than a virgin who had been single for three hundred years suddenly saw a beautiful woman, he looked at Li Qing while screaming: "It's really a person, there are people in the lock demon tower, this time there is meat"
After saying this, he took the lead in pounced, and after Li Qing dodged away, the demon sword was inserted into his skull, and then he looked at the situation in the tower - there are really many demons and monsters here
Along with his first killing, Zhang Qinliang and the others also walked in one after another, and then raised their eyes to see the scene of thousands of troops rushing towards them - the feelings of grievances that had been suppressed for days finally had a breakthrough - for both the demons and the demons.
The monsters shouted "to open the meat" and rushed over, but the words shouted by the human side were the same, Zhang Qinliang carried an axe, scarlet eyes, and shouted "Let Ding Kun have a good time", and then an axe cut a goblin into two pieces, and after another axe smashed the head of a goblin, he felt unpleasant, so he simply turned into a werewolf and bit the neck of a wolf demon, and blood and flesh were scattered everywhere.
The tower becomes a bloody feast - this is not a game of fight and killing, but a real banquet - this is the relationship between eating and being eaten.
More brutal and bloody than killing.
