Chapter 68: Clues
Rongcheng was originally the junction of the Sui State and the Sanzhou Kingdom, and it was originally a transaction that communicated with each other, and the treasures of the Sui State and the exotic treasures of the Sanzhou Kingdom were common. There are more than ten darts on the water, and there are three or two places on the land, which can be said to have their own way. Until the accident four years ago, the merchants and shops did not die in the fairy fight and basically ran out, which almost cut off the way out of several big dart game families, and several dart numbers, including the Qu family, had to flee away from the limelight first, so now the only few dart games, although there are still some livelihoods, are also worried that the old immortals of the Title Sect will go and return, and toss again, this day will be completely impossible.
However, as the first dart number to return, the Qu family worked hard to recruit many good players, and on the third day of the fight, it was opened.
The sound of gongs and drums was so lively, under the tossing and turning of Bai Jingze, Yu Wu finally agreed to let him take a sneak look, not only did Yu Wu give him a little disguise, but also Huang Ming, who was dressed in a man's costume, accompanied him.
After seeing Qin Cheng speak aloud as the head of the dart, Bai Jingze's heart that had been in his throat finally fell, and the smiling man beside him was not so eye-catching.
It's like a god.
Commander Zuo has been imprisoned for more than ten years, and Yu Wu also feels that the time is ripe enough, since he can't ask anything, he simply let it go.
Of course, these are all "beautiful words" said in front of Commander Zuo, Commander Zuo is loyal, and he will definitely not say anything about the situation after saying it, let alone dare to go against the two heroes again. It's a pity that the hands and feet are tied, otherwise it would be better to pat your chest and say this kind of thing.
Huang Ming, who brought back Liu Yun's skin, said that since he wanted to go out, he had to be how to get in and how to get out, Commander Zuo knew this, so he said that it should be so, please take the strength well, you can't faint if it's too light, and if it's too heavy, you may beat yourself to death, and you can't bear it if you have thin arms and legs.
In the middle of the night, the stunned Commander Zuo was put into a cloth bag and thrown on the street elsewhere, seemingly casually. Although the mouth of the cloth bag is sealed, the inside is loosely tied, but the mouth is wrapped in cloth, and it can't be shouted.
Huang Ming watched through the crack in the door in a courtyard far away from the street, and still did not remove Liu Yun's skin.
The location here was carefully selected by Yu Wu, and Huang Ming deliberated it again. The two deduced various situations that they might encounter, such as seeing Bi Dong, killing or not killing.
Or whether to go back to the mountain gate to report the news after finding the nest, and when the time comes, a few uncles and uncles will come over to kill the ghost monks of Erguanling, will they pull out the radish and bring out the mud. If he finds the thousand-petal lotus secret book, will he be charged with Huang Ming knowing but not reporting it?
Or did the merits and demerits offset each other, and the master maneuvered around and let Huang Ming escape?
Mess.
Yu Wu tried to let Huang Ming secretly step into the air, and followed him thirty steps behind him.
Almost silent, breathless.
Then Yu Wu could conclude that a thousand steps away, that ghost path monk, as long as he was not in an open place, it was unlikely that he would find Huang Ming.
This is the agreement with Yu Wu, and the one with the surname left is about a thousand steps, don't take more risks.
Huang Ming put away his thoughts and watched a watchman pass by the sack. The dark clouds covered the moon, and the watchman couldn't see it really, so he kicked the sack in the center of the road with his foot.
After making sure that someone was in the sack, he was so frightened that the gong and drum and the lantern in his hand fell to the ground together, and after he was able to take a few big steps back, the watchman reached out and touched the lantern, and the lantern was also burned after it fell.
Huang Ming put himself in his shoes, naturally he would choose to report to the official, after opening the burlap bag, there is a high probability that he will be a dead man, the official family is here, even if he can't get into a lawsuit, he will often be summoned to the yamen during the day, and he has to go around the house and the lobby after getting off the clock, isn't it in vain?
But the watchman still couldn't help but be curious, and chose to open the cloth bag.
But something unexpected happened to Huang Ming, the man didn't say a word after seeing the face of the Commander Zuo, but ran away with a sack on his back.
Boy! Huang Ming resisted the urge to scold his mother, and quietly jumped over the blue brick wall to chase the beater who was not in the extension at all.
Huang Ming's mind turned sharply, only to realize that since the watchman appeared, he lowered his head and covered his face and yawned, and he had never shown his true face at all. And that person's body method is really good, carrying a person who is a hundred or dozens of pounds on his back, he can also run up and have wind under his feet, which is no worse than sticking a magic talisman.
Wait, the man seemed to pick up the lantern just now, but it was just a talisman, Huang Ming smiled bitterly that his experience was still not sophisticated enough, if it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to avoid startling the snake, he really wanted to rush forward, give a thumbs up to the watchman, and praise the old Jianghu again.
Huang Ming put himself in the shoes of the watchman and thought, even if there is no one behind him, there should be someone, fortunately, there is a mystery in the cloth bag, a corner is slightly torn, there is a drop of fluorescent powder, produced in the four miles where Bai Shoujin is located, just before the five rushed to Rongcheng, it is a disciple of the outer sect over there, so there are some in the hand, the fluorescence of this thing is almost moonlight, if you don't look closely, it is extremely difficult to show traces. But Huang Ming has a back hand, isn't there a thoughtful watchman? Sure enough, at a turning intersection, two three-zhang green smoke charms that were not torn through were ignited in the wind, and the watchman walked faster after confirming that there was someone behind him, and when Huang Ming walked out of the smoke, the person was already gone.
Although Huang Ming followed the lost watchman, he still found the location of the cloth bag with the traces of powder, and entered a dilapidated courtyard in the west of the city.
Huang Ming was sure that the left commander went inside, and it was hard to say whether the person was temporarily resting or waiting for himself to fall into the net. As for whether there is a secret passage in the dark Chen Cang, Huang Ming doesn't have a score, but it's not a matter of standing at the root of a wall and staring at it from a distance, it is very easy to be exposed after a long time, if it is the ghost cultivator of the pulse stage who personally arranges it to slaughter a junior like himself in the enlightenment period, then he can't run away from anything tonight.
Thinking about this, Huang Ming had to retreat first, and after walking around most of Rongcheng to make sure that no one was following him, the sky became white, and he walked into Lu Yaodian.
Yu Wu was still waiting for Huang Ming's news, and after seeing Huang Ming enter with a wry smile, he knew the result.
However, I generally knew the depth of the other party, and deduced that the watchman should be one of the left and right protectors mentioned by the Commander Zuo. Since it's not easy to mess with, let's put away the skin and be a man with my tail between my legs... As for Taiqing's side, in the absence of any clues, and because of the possible exposure of the foot, he couldn't rush forward.
After chatting over there, Yu Wucai remembered something, "At Jing Ze's feet, there is a qi aperture." ”
Huang Ming was a little happy, "Then Grandma Yu, how did his kid hide from the world in these years?" ”
Yu Wu shook his head and said: "It's an accident here, I went to Lao Jiang's side until this year, although I didn't ask him personally, but according to Lao Jiang, Jing Ze, who already has a foundation of qi, has been practicing martial arts over there, and he really let him practice a body, but what makes people feel unbelievable is that the body has not been consolidated and consolidated, this foot qi trick is inexplicably revealed." At present, Jingze, you and I and Lao Jiang know that they haven't come up with a way to cover it up, which is why I am in a hurry to let him go back to Rongcheng, but there is a secret room here for him to practice, which is better than being outside in the wind and rain, so it is not reassuring. ”
Huang Ming thought for a while, "There is only one pair of tiger head shoes, if you can't go out, whoever wears it." ”
Yu Wu shook his head again, "There is no reason to fight with the young master, besides, this Rongcheng is not too green, there are not so many powers to see the heels, and he is usually rarely allowed to go out, that is." ”
"It's not a long-term solution," Huang Ming sighed, "Grandma Yu, if you can trust me, hand over this side of Rongcheng to me, originally stationed in Rongcheng, it is Taiqing's duty to give me, you work harder, go to Huwang Town, go to Huwang and his old man's house to sum up, see if there is a way to cover your breath without taking Longyan Pills, if you really can't help it, go to Jingpo and try to take a pill, and let Jingze's kid take it when you need it." ”
Yu Wu smiled, "The young master said everything the old slave wanted to say, I originally had this idea, I have to wait for something in Rongcheng, I will leave within two days, at least two months, at most half a year I will come back, there is a shop with a green bamboo mark at the door in the west of the city, you as a disciple stationed this time, you should have gone to order a mao, but the people over there are all dead, so it is better to stay away from there, in case you are accidentally caught by the Erguanling forces Some clues, looking for you trouble, young master remember." ”
Huang Ming nodded secretly, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Does Bai Jingze have a suitable cultivation method?" Huang Ming asked.
"The Bai family has a one-word recipe, which is neither good nor bad, but it does not delay that every generation can cultivate to the realm of talent."
"Grandma Yu, I happened to get a book of Qi Induction Strategy, from Bailu Mountain, although there is only the first volume, but it is a good heart that can be successfully opened, I have enough knowledge and still practice safely, then pass it on to Bai Jingze another day, it must be no worse than that one-word trick."
Yu Wu smiled and nodded, since Huang Ming had this thought, it would not be bad to treat the Bai family in Rongcheng.
Huang Ming continued to ask: "Shopkeeper Sun has been staying in Rongcheng all these years? ”
"That's right," Yu Wu replied: "Shopkeeper Sun is no better than Lao Jiang, he is just an ordinary person, he keeps accounts and counts, and he is a good hand, but it is just a matter of foot tricks, so it is not appropriate to talk about it clearly." ”
"The five people that Lao Jiang carried?"
"Lao Jiang has been a slave of the Bai family since his great-grandfather's generation, and since Lao Jiang's father's generation, he has been out of slavery since then, and those five people are all servants of their Jiang family."
Then Huang Ming has a rough number.
Bai Jingze, two qi knots, one knot, the pillar of the Bai family in Rongcheng in the future.
Bai Yu'er, the second qi knack, studied under Qi Ji, did not enter the room, only a named disciple, has a talent for formation, has given up the idea of marrying outside, and will assist his half-brother to revive the Bai family.
Lao Jiang, a martial artist with two body skills, an old servant who has left the Bai family and does not forget his roots, and his own family.
The shopkeeper Sun, the bookkeeper cultivated by the Bai family since childhood, is his own family.
There were also five servants brought out from the Jiang family.
There are nameless mansions everywhere, a top hotel to settle in, and the road is far away.
In addition, Yu Wu handed over all the resources used in his cultivation to Huang Ming, a total of two spirit coins and more than 200 spirit beads, and Yu Wu brought five spirit coins with him, planning to go to Jingpo to try his luck.
There is also Bai Jingze's sword and sword, the long sword is not enough, it is a rather sharp martial arts tool, and that knife can wrap the momentum and swallow the qi machine, it is definitely not a vulgar thing.
In the early morning two days later, Yu Wu changed his face and went out of the city at the West City Gate, after all, the left commander was gone, and Gao Xiaobin's face could not be brought for the time being.
Huang Ming sent out of the city gate, and in this doorway, he saw some clues.
It is a normal short pole with a corded lantern.
Do you want to warn yourself, the Taiqing disciple stationed there, to enter and leave the West Gate to weigh it yourself, or just throw it here at will, and don't care?
After cultivating, Huang Ming naturally preferred the former, because at the beginning of the cultivation, cultivators no longer have unintentional actions, as far as speaking is concerned, ordinary people may have hurtful unintentional words when they are emotional, and in the eyes of cultivators, that kind of words are "heartfelt words" like mustard seeds.
One thought of enlightenment.
Huang Ming only paused slightly, then returned to Lu Yao non-stop, "took leave" with Shopkeeper Sun for a few days, and then transferred to the mansion where the Zuo Commander was detained.
The enemy's unreasonable hand turned out to be an opportunity for Huang Ming to open his mind, and I have to say that he is really fated with the door.
Huang Ming's mood became more and more stable, and he just waited to enter the house without a plaque and began to practice.
Huang Ming has already memorized the seven to nine pages of content on the Qi Extraction Collection, his mind is as constricted as a mustard seed, his body is not close to the dust, he inhales and tastes good, exhales to remove turbidity, and his feet are light, which is called the opportunity to break through the three-trick bottle.
Huang Ming took off the tiger head shoes and sat on the futon, twisted out a meditation incense that Yu Wu left here, and then put the bronze incense burner that he had found in front of the futon, took out the fire fold and then the fragrance of the blue musk deer came out.
There are dozens of spirit beads in front of him, which are all the family background.
Huang Ming took out one of them and gently buckled it to the ground, taking a deep breath.
Ten years later, most of the spirit beads on the ground were broken, showing a gray complexion.
Huang Ming looked at the palm of his right hand, mixed feelings and sorrows.
The good thing is that the acupuncture points of the four acupuncture points are opened, and it is the palm of the right hand, except for the big threshold of the pulse period, the rest of the prerequisites for practicing the Great Seal Technique have been achieved.
The worry is that since then, in addition to the eye, more cultivation resources need to be taken out to tilt towards the palm of the hand.
As soon as this trick is opened, the weather is clear, not only the trick of Zhou Tian has echoed the operation of the law, but what is even more rare is that there are traces of "rotation" inside this trick, and the speed of Zhou Tian is no different from the two tricks of the soles of the feet. The wisps of aura that were clearly visible in the spirit bead were like entering a deep pool when they entered this aperture, and they disappeared without a trace. Even if Huang Ming "fed" more than ten spirit beads, there was no sign of "fullness".
If it is really difficult to be an immortal, a four-trick monk has to "eat" so many spirit beads, no wonder everyone squeezes their heads and runs to these places full of spiritual energy in the three sects.
If nothing else, Yihu's aura of not wanting money, the more the merrier.
Huang Ming then turned the tenth page of the collection, and the pimple on his brow was even bigger.
What is written in the book is completely different from my current situation.
It is mentioned on page 10 that the four tricks will feed back and strengthen other tricks in a lifetime, not only will the qi increase greatly, but also take the fourth trick as the core, and according to the different personal cultivation qualifications, they will have the magical power of the Void Imperial Object.
The book also writes that the three orifices are only in the ground, but they are just like children who have just learned to walk, and the four orifices will completely change the small pattern of the three orifices when they fight separately, with the prototype of "the pulse", once the qi in the fourth orifices is exhausted, the remaining three orifices will rush to this place in an instant, and they will respond to a hundred calls, but it is clear that their right hand orifices are exhausted, and the remaining three orifices have no signs of wanting to help the new ones...
That's it, what's even worse is that when it is written later that if you practice according to this method, the position of the fourth trick will inevitably be in the dantian. If it is not the middle dantian or the lower dantian, if it appears in the upper dantian, there is still a method of practice, which will be mentioned in the next volume of the collection, if the four orifices appear in the lower dantian, there is a chance to impact the six orifices, and if the four orifices appear in the middle dantian and the upper dantian, unless there is a big opportunity, it will be stagnant in the five orifices for life, and then impact the pulse period by tricking.
And the specific method will still be mentioned in the next volume.
Huang Ming smiled bitterly, threw Jiluo aside, and slowly got up.
Paper can't contain the fire, not to mention that I didn't want to wrap it, just at the stall when Huang Ming went out, Lao Jiang happened to be drinking tea at Bai Jingze's place, so he truthfully told Bai Jingze, who was practicing, about going out on the fifth day, and said that at present, everything in the Bai family was in the hands of the Taiqing outer disciple.
Bai Jingze was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Lao Jiang to take him to the Qujia Dart Bureau to mix up the head of the dart, Lao Jiang was naturally a hundred unwilling, and tried to dissuade him, but how could Bai Jingze have the heart to listen to this, and after carefully cleaning up, he remembered that Yu Wu wanted him to act cautiously, so he asked: "The dough left to me by Grandma Yu Wu, has it ever been in your hands?" ”
"Young master, both of them are on Lao Sun's side." Lao Jiang knew what he was going to do, and continued: "There is no suspense about the position of the head of the Qu family's dart, young master, it's better not to go over there to make trouble in the near future, and stay that too young..."
", can he control me? When I disguised myself as a down-and-out son, covered with the skin that only I had seven points of appearance and arrived at Qu's house, I couldn't delay lunch, her salted duck eggs, how many teenagers haven't eaten them? Just think about it... After eating and drinking, I have the strength to go and call the person surnamed Qin. The more Bai Jingze said, the more he felt that it should be like this, and after going out, he went straight to Lu Yao, took out the dough from the shopkeeper Sun and dressed it up a little, then laughed in high spirits and rushed out of the door. came and went in a hurry, saying that he wanted to catch up with the meal. Shopkeeper Sun was helpless, and quickly made a look, and let Zong Zi go out with Lao Jiang after going out, after everyone left, a small head poked out on the second floor, and smiled at Shopkeeper Sun downstairs, and then took one foot and moved out a bamboo box of luggage with difficulty, most of which were still heavy books, and they were already out of breath.
The shopkeeper Sun hurriedly went up to help, stepped on the stairs creaked, the old scholar with the little head thanked the shopkeeper Sun, and the two joined hands to move the bamboo box downstairs, and the shopkeeper Sun felt that the bamboo box was a little heavy, but it was okay.
They are all old yellow books, with different thicknesses, and there are eight copies of ten.
The old scholar thanked him, saying that he was bothered these days, and he was about to go out after paying the room fee, and the shopkeeper Sun collected the money and asked the old gentleman if he wanted to have lunch and leave?
The old scholar shook his head, asked Shopkeeper Sun to help him send the bookcase to his back, and staggered out of Lu Yao.
After all, Shopkeeper Sun was a little uneasy, and asked, "Old man, where are you going?" Do you want to call a carriage? ”
The old scholar smiled: "No, no, take advantage of the wind and clouds, I will go wherever the clouds go, the road is far away, and I will not feel confused, the heart of the world is my home." ”
The old man's so-called world is the real world.
Shopkeeper Sun watched the old man go away, and the old man passed by Huang Ming, who was rushing here.
There wasn't even eye contact between the two sides.
The old man who walked out of Rongcheng looked in the direction of Erguanling, pinched his fingers, felt a little bored, and muttered, "Then it ends like this?" How many fly in the ointment, but it can be regarded as a complete story, even so, it is enough to make the fairies of the Huagai Continent give a thumbs up, isn't it? ”
The old man's wrinkled face had a smile, and he gestured the words "the end of the whole play" in the air. Then the three words seemed to come to life and fell somewhere in the bamboo box.
Then the old man's sleeves gradually widened, and he rose to the sky on the ground, without shaking a speck of dust on the ground, and the bookcase seemed to be enlightened, and he followed the old man through the clouds and fog, so unhappy.
The old man who stopped in the air against the wind had changed his face in an instant, and his waist was no longer restrained, but became a middle-aged man with a radiant spirit, and the books in the bookcase also jumped out to recognize the master, and circled around the master, especially a new book, which was the old man's new work in Rongcheng, called the corpse.
The man looked at a certain place in Rongcheng and said with a smile: "The sun is good, why don't you come out to bask in the sun?" Every time it's like two little girls, do you want me to ask you two to come out? ”
In a house without a plaque, two solitary books were quickly swept out as if they had been pardoned, and the leather was written with "Rongcheng Jilu" and "Sanzhou Sui Biography" respectively.
In Rongcheng, Huang Ming, who had just stepped out of Lu Yao, the servants who were squatting at the door outside the Qufu Gate, the lazy man in the door of the West City Gate, and the Baijing scholar who was eating at the same table with Bai Jingze were all shocked.
Because the fourth book in the sky laughed and shouted: "Follow me into Ze!" ”
The sound that resounded throughout the city was heard by a total of four people.
