Chapter 18: Rejuvenation Tips

Now everyone in the valley has developed a habit of getting together every morning to discuss various matters. On this day, Qin Ming raised a question: the salt is gone.

Through these two months of understanding, Ma Yun knew the preciousness of salt in the Longyuan Continent, and every year the imperial court allocated a certain amount of salt to various states and cities, and the people cherished it with salt, and they saved it if they could. At that time, some people brought a little salt with them, and now they have been eating it together for two months, and that salt has run out.

In the end, Lei Lie came up with a possible solution: there was a small village thirty miles away from here, which was empty when the people had fled, and the villagers had fled, and there might be hidden salt.

If there is a way, it is another question of who will go. Ma Yun, a chivalrous man in the eyes of everyone, stood up undeservedly, he stayed in the valley for two months, and just wanted to go out to have a look. Qin Ming was not worried about Ma Yun and wanted to go with him.

Early the next morning, the two set out, armed with a simple map showing the location of the small village. It was agreed with everyone that the long would be three days, or the short would be two days, and the two would return.

At the same time, where Ma Yun buried the man in black two months ago, the body of the man in black had already been eaten by the beast, leaving only a scattered skeleton, and only the traces of the fire on the ground were faintly visible.

At this moment, a man wrapped in a black cloak, holding a red snake staff in his left hand and a skeletal skull in his right hand, seemed to be reading something in his mouth.

Around the black-robed man stood a dozen black-clothed people and a purple-robed man, the same group of people who appeared there two months ago shortly after Jack Ma left.

With a sudden snort from the black-robed man, the skull suddenly turned into powder and dissipated into the air. The black-robed man read out a strange sentence aloud, and then quickly grabbed it in the air with his hand, and when he spread out his palm, there was an extra red filament in his palm.

The black-robed man glanced at the filament, and suddenly threw the filament towards the purple-robed man, the filament was extremely fast, and as soon as the purple-robed man's body moved slightly, the filament flew in front of him, and it disappeared into the body. Seeing this, the black-clothed people around all pulled out their weapons and looked at the black-robed people nervously.

"Immortal, why is this?" the purple-robed man's voice was full of horror.

"Hmph, you can feel it now, can you already feel the direction of the object. Hearing this, the purple-robed man stood quietly in place and closed his eyes, and after a while, he opened his eyes with a look of surprise.

"The method of the immortals is really magical. ”

"Hmph, I'm done. Then he walked into the woods, without looking at the people. The movements of the black-robed man seemed to be slow, but each step was a distance of several zhang, and it disappeared after a few clicks.

The purple-robed man watched the black-robed man disappear into the forest with a complicated expression, shook his head, sighed heavily, and then turned in another direction, with a vicious look in his eyes: "It's taken so much, see where you go this time!" ”

Thirty miles of mountain road, Ma Yun and Qin Ming hurried cautiously, and finally arrived at the small village at the foot of the mountain before dark. The two of them observed the entrance of the village for a long time, and made sure that they did not see the slightest human habit, so they entered the village when it was dark. As soon as Fang entered the village, a wild dog was so frightened that he barked wildly. The courtyards of the houses in the village are all open, as if to tell of all the misfortunes that have happened here.

The two of them found a room and lit a fire, lit two more torches, and began to search along the houses that were long deserted. The entire village had long since been ransacked, and all the houses were in disarray, and some of the courtyards and houses even had bones. I don't know if it was the luck of the two or the people were in too much of a hurry when they fled, but after careful searching, the two really found something useful. They found a small bag of grain, some belongings, and even a jar of wine, but they had not found salt.

After collecting what he had found, he searched other houses, and finally found half a jar of salt on the beam of a dilapidated house, but the jar was too small and there was not much salt in it. The two searched the other houses side by side, and spent most of the night briefly searching the village, and found a few more places of salt, so that the total salt found was just enough to fill a palm-sized cloth bag.

"Save some food, enough to eat for a year, and the harvest is not bad. Qin Ming looked at the salt in the cloth bag with satisfaction. "Little brother, this wine is good, why don't you drink more. In order to return to the valley as soon as possible, they decided not to bring the jar of wine back, so Qin Ming, who was a good wine, drank it, and Ma Yun also drank a bowl with him. However, he didn't like to drink alcohol in the first place, and after drinking a bowl he stopped drinking.

"Brother Qin, you drink yours, I'll go out and have a look. Just now he heard the wild dogs outside barking and there was no sound, he felt a little strange, and at the same time suddenly felt a little restless, so he went out for a walk.

When I came to the courtyard and looked around, the moonlight was shining, the shadows of the trees were waving, and the insects were chirping, everything seemed normal. It's just that the next moment, Ma Yun's face changed greatly, and he instantly pulled out the short sword on his waist and shouted loudly, "What person!"

I saw that many figures suddenly appeared around the house, standing motionless, looking extremely eerie in the bright moonlight. Qin Ming heard Ma Yun's shouting, and walked out with a big knife, and when he saw the dark shadows around him, he suddenly became nervous, held the knife in front of his chest, and looked around vigilantly.

"Little brother, the other party is not good!" Qin Ming said in a deep voice.

"Brother Qin, you go and bring the grain and salt, the belongings are gone, and we will break out. "Okay!" After a while, Qin Ming packed up his things and walked out of the house again.

"Brother Qin, do you say they are humans or ghosts!"

"Ghost, you are big, they all say that there are ghosts in the world, but your brother Qin has never seen it. ”

Then I'll try it first: "Taishang Laojun, universal in all directions, the Tao should not be, within the Three Realms, among the Liuhe, those who follow it are auspicious, those who go against it are fierce, and the fate is one, the thunder is with you, and the disciples are in trouble, I wish you to be lucky, turn evil into auspiciousness, and be as urgent as the law!"

"Little brother, what are you doing?" Ma Yun suddenly said something strange, which made Qin Ming confused.

It seems that they are not ghosts, or they are too profound. He used to learn that passage in movies, and he thought it was funny, so he wrote it down, and he used it here purely to try it blindly, and he didn't think of the effect at all, he just wanted to see the reaction of those figures, who knew that those figures still didn't move.

"I'll rub it, is it working again!" Because a blood-red filament suddenly appeared in front of him, and drilled into his chest, the filament appeared too suddenly, and the speed was extremely fast, he didn't have time to dodge at all, and Qin Ming beside him didn't even see all this clearly.

Just after the filament burrowed into Ma Yun's chest, a loud laugh came, and a dark shadow slowly walked towards them and stood three meters away.

"I couldn't believe it was so easy to find. Now that you've got the 'Rejuvenation Formula', why don't you run away after two months?"

"Little brother, it seems that I am looking for you. Qin Ming immediately understood the other party's intention, and said to Ma Yun in a low voice, while shouting loudly, "What are you talking about? What is the 'rejuvenation formula'? We are just ordinary people, you are mistaken!" As soon as the words fell, a fierce force came towards him, and it hit Qin Ming's chest at once, knocking him upside down and flying back into the house, and the door panel was knocked off.

"Brother Qin!" Ma Yun jumped into the room, only to see Qin Ming spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth and cover his chest with his hands. "It's so strong, it's a master. Run away... Escape... bar. After saying that, he tilted his head and fainted.

"Uncle, the air hurts people, this is a master, this is a super master. I also had to be ruined by the slap I just had, so how can I do it now? It seems that it must be referring to the painting hidden in the cake, and what can make such a master pursue it must be an extremely profound martial arts cheat. ”

After the man struck a blow, he stood outside and did not move. Ma Yun turned to look out of the door, but he was thinking about it repeatedly: If he handed over the cheats, could these people let them go. "No matter, let's give it a try first, it's a 1 in 10,000 chance. ”

"The hero outside the door, if I hand over that trick, I don't know if you can raise your noble hand and let us go?"

"Hahahaha!" Although it was a loud laugh, the coldness in it was very obvious.

"Let you go? Do you know how much it cost me to let you go so easily in order to find you, so what kind of face will I have in the future to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes?"

"Uncle, I know that I won't agree, what is the Shadowless Gate, it sounds very powerful. Ma Yun scolded in his heart.

"In that case, then I'll destroy it, and no one can think of it. ”

"Destroy it?hahahaha, you destroy it and show it to this seat! If you can destroy half a point, this seat will let you go. ”

"Is this true?" "I thank Yanke for 30 years of crisscrossing the rivers and lakes, and I have always made a promise.

"What, Xie Yanke, your name is Xie Yanke?" Ma Yun suddenly remembered that there was a very famous weird person named Xie Yanke in a book, who was moody, good and evil, and did things according to his preferences.

"Xie Yanke, do you know me?"

"I don't know, I recognized the wrong person, you can see clearly!" After speaking, he took out the paper from the clothes that were close to his chest and slashed lightly on the edge of the paper with his short sword.

"I rubbed it, and it was really strong, and the short sword was not broken. ”

"There is a sword in this world that can cut that piece of paper, but it is not the one in your hand. ”

"Don't talk too much. This time, Ma Yun used ten percent of his strength to draw up, and with a "bang", the paper was really cut a small opening.

"Stop!" The person who called himself Xie Yanke outside the door had already walked to the door at this time, and by the light of the fire in the house, he vaguely saw that Xie Yanke was dressed in a purple robe, with a clear appearance, and a fine light in his eyes. At this time, Xie Yanke looked at the short sword in Ma Yun's hand with a surprised face.

"You have such a divine weapon?"

"I'll rub it, this guy won't take a fancy to this short sword again, he's going to kill and grab the treasure!" "Does what you said before still count?" Xie Yanke lowered his head and was silent for a while.

"Hand over the 'Rejuvenation Formula' and you can leave with your friends. There was a hint of annoyance in his voice.

"It's that simple?"

"I thank Yanke for what I say, and I have never regretted what I said. ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will practice the above martial arts or write down the martial arts and tell others?"

"Hahahaha!" Xie Yanke laughed after hearing his words. "The mystery of this 'rejuvenation formula' is not known to many people in the world. Leave the 'Rejuvenation Formula' and leave quickly!"

"Are you really going to let us go?"

"Before I change my mind, leave quickly!"

"You don't lie to me because you're afraid that I'll ruin your things, so you'll be ruthless when I hand over your things, right? Ah, that's a turn..."

Before Ma Yun finished speaking, Xie Yanke was already furious, and slapped his palm on his chest, the speed of the action made him dodge, and he was about to raise his short sword to stab it, but the energy was already coming, making his whole body stagnate, and then he saw a palm on his chest.

"Killing you is like stepping on an ant, and it is a matter of effort for me to snatch your things!" Xie Yanke's eyes showed a cold killing intent.

"Hero, slow down, it's my villain's heart and the belly of a gentleman, you just take that trick away. As he spoke, he slowly handed over the paper.

"Hmph. Get out of here, another word of nonsense will kill you!"

So far, Ma Yun didn't dare to hesitate, lowered his body and picked up Qin Ming, and stepped out of the door with a complicated look at the purple-robed man.

As soon as he walked out of the gate, he was stopped by a group of black-clothed people, one of whom said to the big man, "Three door masters, let them go like this, if the two door masters know, you can't explain it!" "Let them go, I'll take care of everything!" The black-clothed man dispersed.
