Chapter 44: Things Change
When Chen Man returned to the central square of the Refining Weapon Sect with the little wolf cub in his arms, the shadow of the pillar that was already due south was cast in the center of the square, and the night was already approaching evening.
"Yo, isn't this Senior Brother Chen Man, I didn't expect you to be able to rush back to the central square in one day, I thought you would give up. ”
Just stepping into the central square, Chen Man heard Wang Yuan's annoying voice, his brows were tightly knit and he was a little impatient, but he also saw Yuwen Haoran's figure.
Now the first three disciples of the outer sect in the square all live in the same place, and when Chen Man stepped into the stone platform of the square, the three of them all looked at Chen Man at the same time with great tacit understanding.
The eyes they looked at Chen Man were different, and Xia Cheng had a touch of appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Chen Man, and he did not hide his intention to show favor at all.
And Yuwen Haoran's gaze at Chen Man was like a big lake, deep but clear, and the joy, anger, sorrow and joy were invisible.
As for Wang Yong, there was a thick murderous intent in his gaze towards Chen Man, and his body involuntarily exuded a burst of aura, and even Wang Yuan next to him had a trace of fear.
Everyone present at this moment noticed that the first three people of the outer sect were all very interested in Chen Man's son, and some of them were even jealous, and they also cast unfriendly eyes on Chen Man.
Li Haotian, who was standing in a high position, saw this situation, and said to the three elders with a little smile: "I didn't expect that Chen Man, this kid has only recently entered the outer sect, and he is quite popular. ”
Xu Dongqing, the elder of the East Dean, was very unaccustomed to Chen Man because of the incident in the dining room last time, so he just snorted coldly and dealt with Li Haotian.
Nangong Liuyun didn't want to go along with the words of the head of the house and put gold on his face, and in the end, there was only one West Dean Liu Xi left, because Xia Cheng's relationship also had a good impression of Chen Man.
"After all, it is a disciple who was personally brought back by the head of the sect half a year ago, and the magic eye that can enter the head of the sect is not far behind. Liu Xi smiled lightly and replied without being salty.
Chen Man had no scruples about becoming the target of the public, and walked all the way to Xia Cheng's camp with the sleeping wolf cub in his arms, where Chen Bei and the others were there.
There are more or less followers around the three strong men of the Outer Sect, but Yuwen Haoran is like a Qing Gao scribe who does not touch fireworks wherever he goes, and there is no half of a figure around him.
At this time, seeing that Chen Man was talking to Xia Cheng as if no one was around, Yuwen Haoran hesitated for a moment, but still did not pass.
Time passed another hour, and now the sky has been shrouded in night, and a bright moon is hanging above everyone's heads, and Chen Man has already mingled with the brothers and sisters of Xia Cheng's lineage.
Under Chenbei's intentional or unintentional killing, everyone around him regarded Chen Man as the third person in Xia Cheng's family, and the first two were naturally Xia Cheng and Chenbei's best friends.
After this period of time, the disciples of the outer sect came back one after another, and they did not know the introductory acupoint technique in alchemy, so it was also by luck that they could find a piece of purple marble.
Or snatching・・・・・・
Seeing the same door returning to the central square one after another, Wang Yong frowned silently, "What about Li Qing, why hasn't he come back yet, didn't I teach him some superficial acupoint techniques?"
At this point, he asked Wang Yuan, who was closest to him, and although Wang Yuan was also a little puzzled at the moment, it stands to reason that although the acupoint technique that his brother taught Li Qing was only a skin, it should be enough to find a piece of purple marble.
"I don't know, I heard that he was with Yuwen Haoran after entering the mountain, but I went to inquire with Yuwen Haoran just now, and he said he didn't know. Wang Yuan said helplessly.
"There's something strange about this. Wang Yong said lightly, and then looked at Yuwen Haoran with unkind eyes, but somehow, the next moment it was uncontrollably transferred to Chen Man.
Could it be related to him? Wang Yong now did not know that Li Qing had died in the mountains, and it was difficult to conclude whether the reason for his delay in returning was really related to Chen Man.
Wang Yong only had an idea in his heart, but when his younger brother Wang Yuan saw him looking at Chen Man's gaze, he took the two of them amorous and walked towards Xia Cheng's camp.
"Hey, Chen Man, where is Li Qing?"
At this moment, it was too late for Wang Yong to stop him, so he could only secretly curse his stupid brother in his heart, and always observed the subtle changes in Chen Man's facial expression, and he was unwilling to let go of it bit by bit.
Before Chen Man could speak, Chen Bei couldn't help but take a step forward, the three-yuan fan in his hand seemed to be able to fan out the wind beast fire ghost at any time, although the two people behind Wang Yuan knew that they were invincible to Chen Bei, but now they had to take a step forward.
Xia Cheng stood aside and remained silent, looking at Wang Yuan who came to find fault with a playful look.
At this moment, Chen Man stepped forward, stretched out his hand to cover Chenbei's three-yuan fan, and after giving it a reassuring look, he turned his head and smiled at Wang Yuan: "Where did Li Qing go, you ask me? I don't know." ”
At this moment, Chen Man's every move seemed to Wang Yuan to be a cover-up, and just as Wang Yuan was about to open his mouth to ask, a panicked voice suddenly sounded on the periphery of the central square.
"Master, three elders, something is wrong!"
When the voice came into the square, everyone's eyes looked in one direction, and they saw a disciple of the outer sect who had just returned from the experience rushing towards the square sweating profusely.
What shocked everyone even more was that the disciple of the outer sect was still carrying a corpse covered in blood, Li Haotian frowned when he saw this, and the three elders also had heavy expressions.
"Master, on the way back from my training, I found Senior Brother Li Qing lying in the corpse of a group of wild wolves, covered with scratches and bites, and he was already out of breath when I found him. ”
What the outer sect disciple was carrying was Li Qing's corpse, but when Chen Man heard his words, his eyes were a little puzzled.
Now on the square, the eyes of the two brothers Wang Yong and Wang Yuan had taken their eyes away from Chen Man, and turned to the outer sect disciple who came back with the corpse on his back.
Wang Yong frowned and slid to the side of the corpse, and Chen Man also greeted Xia Chengchenbei and walked to the corpse at the edge of the square with the little wolf cub in his arms.
"Jin Mu, Wang Shou, you two go and see what's going on. Li Haotian's face turned pale and instructed the two inner sects behind him.
Since the disappearance of the craftsman god three hundred years ago for no reason, the development of the Refining Sect can be said to be declining day by day, and now even a miscellaneous servant is a rare resource, not to mention the death of a disciple of the outer sect for no reason.
This incident made Li Haotian extremely angry, and the three elders also had unkind faces.
Jin Mu and Wang Shou clasped their fists and saluted, and their bodies jumped, and their speed was far faster than that of gliding on the edge of the square, which made everyone around them smack their tongues.
This is the real monk, the Gathering Soul Period can only glide, depending on the capacity of his own dantian qi sea, every time he flies a distance, he has to land on the ground for ventilation, and what these two people have just used is an authentic flying technique!
In other words, this Jin Mu and Wang Shou both have a minimum of one grade of qi induction cultivation!
Seeing the two senior brothers' dojo, Chen Man and Wang Yong both took a step back and gave way to their seats, Wang Yong just saw that Li Qing was scarred, while Chen Man was secretly happy in his heart.
What Chen Man was puzzled about just now was that the senior brother who had told Li Qing on his back said that Li Qing's body was full of scratches and bites left by wild wolves, and as far as he knew, Li Qing was only stabbed in the heart by himself and died.
Chen Man, who was standing behind Jin Mu, seemed to glance at Yuwen Haoran inadvertently, and happened to find that Yuwen Haoran handed him a meaningful smile.
Thinking about it, those scars on Li Qing's corpse were from Yuwen Haoran's hand, but why did Yuwen Haoran help him cover it up? Could it be that it was for the phantom flute?
At this moment, the little wolf cub curled up in Chen Man's arms suddenly let out a whimper when he saw the corpse lying on the ground, as if he smelled the breath of his relatives from the corpse.
This whimper was extremely subtle, and even Chen Man couldn't hear it very clearly, but Wang Yong keenly caught this sound for a moment, and looked at Chen Man with an unkind gaze.
After Jin Mu and Wang Shou arrived, Jin Mu frowned and squatted down, carefully conducting an autopsy on Li Qing, but Wang Shou just glanced at it impatiently, and then turned his head as if he was disgusted with his eyes.
A moment later, the two of them jumped back behind Li Haotian as they had come.
Feeling the anger on Li Haotian's body, Jin Mu hurriedly clenched his fists and replied, "Master, Senior Brother Li Qing does have traces of wild wolf bites on his body, it should be true that he died under the siege of wolves." ”
Wang Shou stood aside and did not nod his head in agreement, nor did he disagree with Kaneki's words, allowing Kaneki to report his autopsy results to the head and the three elders.
After listening to Jin Mu's words, Li Haotian's body suddenly exuded a burst of aura, and the divine consciousness that belonged to the Xuanmen realm was actually unleashed by Li Haotian with the realm of the peak of qi induction.
As soon as his mind unfolded, he spread out around with himself as the center, covering four or five surrounding hills.
"All the disciples listen to the order, the purple cloud stone experience is over here, whether you find the treasure or not, now go back to the central square to gather!"
The disciples of the outer sect who were looking down in the dense forest in the mountains, whether they had gained anything or not, at the same moment, Li Haotian's deep voice sounded in their minds.
Didn't you say that there was no limit to the time of this training, why did you suddenly summon us again now? This is the doubt in the hearts of almost all the disciples of the outer sect.
Doubts are doubts, but they don't dare to disobey the words of the master, and at this time, all the disciples of the outer sect who are still in the mountains have launched their sliding techniques one by one and flew towards the central square from all directions.
"The master, since the person has died and has no skills, he still hopes that the head of the family will focus on major technical matters. Xu Dongqing stepped forward and didn't care about Li Qing's accidental death.
After all, Li Qing is not from his Eastern Academy, and in Xu Dongqing's opinion, it has become an indisputable fact that Wang Yong, who is under his disciple, won the championship in this competition, so he naturally does not want to waste time.
But as soon as his words fell, Wang Yong below suddenly spoke.
"Head, Chen Man can't get rid of Li Qing's death, Chen Man must be present when his junior brother is besieged by wolves!"
Hearing Wang Yong's nonsensical aggressiveness, Chen Man frowned and was slightly dissatisfied, and among the three elders, Xu Dongqing and Nangong Liuyun also frowned.
