Chapter 31 Refusal of Invitation
Qingshui Inn, Xu Hao smiled, drew talismans with one hand, and his fingertips danced, like a dragonfly dotting water, smart and clear.
Then with a flick of his fingers, a cloud of light and shadow staggered to the window, and after a while, two men outside the door were on fire in their clothes, running and shouting: "Help, it's on fire......"
There were people in the inn who ate and watched in amazement, but they did not help, and sighed: "What a miserable two." ”
"Two bullies and hooligans, working for corrupt officials in the government, do not deserve sympathy." Someone explained.
Gu Qi lay on the table and said lazily: "Your fire talisman is still almost true, when my skills are restored, I will take you to collect a spiritual flame in the future and contemplate it, so that you can not only nourish the soul, but also understand the true meaning of fire." ”
"Brother Gu Dao is hot, I thank you first, but I don't know when you will be able to recover your strength?" Xu Hao asked curiously when he heard this.
Any true meaning requires a deep understanding, and with the vivid display of actual objects, it is easier to comprehend the true meaning.
Gu Qi smiled: "This is simple, you can get me five or six spiritual treasures full of qi and blood, this is not difficult for you." ”
Xu Hao's face darkened, thinking of the fruit of his storage bag, he said in his heart that this guy always wanted to blackmail himself, and then turned his head and ignored it.
Seeing this, Gu Qi hurriedly leaned around and said, "Three or four pieces are also fine." ”
"It's really not good, one or two things don't hurt, you won't lose this investment......"
Xu Hao ignored it, sat on the bed by himself, and said secretly in his heart: "What Gu Qi said is true, it's just that this guy's mind is not pure, and there is no need to trade with him unless he has to." ”
He had already sensed that the other party's strength had recovered a little, and now he was probably in the realm of the Void Valley, although Gu Qi was hidden very deeply, his divine sense was strong, and he could still see through it.
It's just that it didn't break it.
"I wonder what about that green flame in my Chaos Sea?"
Xu Hao couldn't help but remember that he still had such a treasure, and immediately his divine sense was dispersed, and after making sure that no one was snooping around, his divine mind entered the Chaos Sea and comprehended the green flame.
The cyan flame grew every day, illuminating the Yuan Sedum Tianshu.
Xu Hao's divine sense is now more and more powerful, and he is no longer so ignorant when he looks at the Chaos Sea, and the Evergreen Heavenly Hub not far away is like a whirlpool, and occasionally there are swimming fish and shrimp gushing out, but it is not complete.
"If the Monk Chaos Sea can give birth to creatures, then can it become a world of its own?"
Xu Hao couldn't help but make a bold guess that the Chaos Sea could give birth to a series of lifeforms, but he immediately denied his idea: "No, a few remnant fish and shrimp tails should just be illusory things, not real lives." ”
Then he put his consciousness on the green flame again, and he was engrossed in visualizing the slowly beating flame, which seemed to be breathing regularly.
Xu Hao's divine consciousness was close, and he could feel the mysterious power in it, like a heart with life.
Gu Qi didn't know that Xu Hao had entered the battle, so he just closed his eyes and practiced, secretly saying that this kid was cautious, pretending not to care, and said with a smile: "Diligence can make up for clumsiness." ”
A moment later, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Hao stopped practicing and opened the door, and the person who came was the junior who had entertained him at the beginning.
Xiao Er apologized and said, "Excuse me, Prince Bai Yu invites you to go to the Peach Blossom Forest tomorrow, and he ordered you to stay for free, this is the money returned." ”
Xu Hao looked puzzled, and did not take the silver handed by Xiao Er, he did not know the Bai Yu son in the other party's mouth.
"This guest officer doesn't even know Bai Yu's son, it seems that he is a foreigner." Seeing this, Xiao Er hurriedly explained:
"The guest officer doesn't know, Bai Yu Gongzi is a big family in the city, the eldest son of the Bai family, his temperament is gentle, generous, likes to make good friends, recruits talents, is the head of the young talents of Lingtai, and his reputation is almost unknown in Lingtai City."
Xu Hao was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart What does this have to do with him, he passed by Lingtai just to stay temporarily, and he will have to rush to Jiangning in a few days, and he has no leisure time to make friends with irrelevant people.
So he patiently said: "I have something important to do, can I not go?" ”
"Forehead ......"
Xiao Er was stunned, then looked left and right, saw that there was no one, and then leaned forward and whispered:
"Childe, the Bai family is the first family in Lingtai, and this restaurant is also the Bai family, their power is more than that, I'm afraid it's not good if you don't go......"
The rest of the words were not said by the other party, and the meaning was self-evident.
Xu Hao frowned, he didn't want to cause trouble, but he wasn't afraid of trouble, watching Xiao Er leave, he fell into thought.
Gu Qi said from afar: "When you go out, you can't help it, it's not wise to provoke the enemy for no reason, and it's okay to go." ”
Xu Hao smiled in his heart, and a "Fire Separation Talisman" flew out in his hand, dancing forward quickly, surrounding Guqi in an instant, and the fire was like a snake, winding and flying.
Gu Qi hurriedly jumped to dodge, but still left a black scar.
Seeing this, Xu Hao took back the "Fire Separation Talisman" and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I just felt something, and I drew another train talisman, and I wanted to ask Brother Bone to try the results, but I accidentally hurt you." ”
Gu Qi was furious when he heard this: "Such a child's play? I'm still worried about you, and it really hurts my heart to solve your problems for you. ”
With that, he walked towards the door, his steps firm.
"Is this guy really not being bought?"
Gu Qi opened his mouth and closed his mouth to make a deal, and at this time he persuaded him to invite, and he couldn't help but suspect that the other party was secretly bought by him.
Seeing that he wanted to leave, Xu Hao felt Gu Qi's "disheartenedness", and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Brother Gu, look at what this is?" ”
He spread out his palm, and a red fruit emerged, which he had obtained in Di Huan's storage bag, and he could feel that the fruit was full of aura and abundant qi and blood.
Gu Qi stopped when he heard this, and snorted coldly: "The food that comes is disdainful of beggars, but you and I have shared weal and woe and dealt with Di Huan together, this time I will forgive you, and I will not take it as an example." ”
Immediately, he quietly lay on the fruit, his small eyes glowing, and he absorbed the qi and blood contained in the fruit on the spot.
"When did he contribute to dealing with Di Huan?"
Xu Hao was stunned for a moment, and when he saw this, Gu Qi refined the fruit on the spot, so he put the fruit on the table, watching this guy die of drunken dreams, and moaned shallowly.
After a few moments, the fruit was huge, and only the pits the size of grapes remained.
Gu Qi lay lazily on the table, and it was shocking that this guy had grown a short white arm bone, which creaked and was extremely weird.
"Guki?"
Xu Hao looked surprised, only to see that the other party squeaked and grew an arm bone, staggered up, bent his arms, and said loudly: "That...... Do you still have any of this fruit? ”
“?”
"Are you in the hallway?"
Xu Hao sensed the other party's aura, but he didn't hide it at this time, and the thick aura emanated out, not much weaker than himself.
Hearing this, Gu Qi secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he hurriedly withdrew his qi and said with a smile: "Accidental breakthrough, just accidental, don't worry, since I follow you, I will definitely die to the ground." ”
Gu Qi leaked a flaw, Xu Hao was a little surprised: "This family has definitely noticed the spirit fruit in the storage bag, otherwise they wouldn't have mentioned this topic, and it was also intentional to avoid the fire separation talisman at the right time." ”
Xu Hao sneered and said, "In that case, if Bai Yu Gongzi retaliates against me, Brother Gu will also stand in front of me?" ”
Gu Qi got cheap, knew that he was at a loss, patted his chest and said:
"This is natural, Brother Xu can rest assured, but my strength has only recovered one-ten-thousandth, and my qi and blood are unstable, so I can only assist you one or two, just don't dislike it."
After saying that, the qi of the whole body became sluggish and sluggish, and it seemed that the qi and blood were really unstable and a little withered, Xu Hao sneered in his heart when he saw this, and did not pierce it, and said with a smile:
"It's okay, you can make one or two shots at the critical moment, I don't hide it, I still have a few fruits here, but I'm afraid that you will eat too much for a while and have indigestion, so put it here with me first."
Gu Qi smiled dryly: "Actually, my gastrointestinal ability is still good, or ......"
Xu Hao pretended not to hear it, and said solemnly: "I suddenly have a feeling for the way of Fu Zheng, I don't know if Brother Gu can give me some advice?" ”
"Of course, it can."
Seeing this, Guqi retreated and no longer entangled.
The two had a long talk.
Xu Hao benefited a lot overnight, and his understanding of the art of talisman was much deeper, and it turned out that in addition to the basic eight kinds of "Qian, Kun, Zhen, Shan, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui", there were many profound and mysterious runes.
For example, the "seal" forbidden rune, there is this kind of rune on the nameless sword, Gu Qi is rare and not stingy, and teaches it to Xu Hao, but he faintly feels that it is not complete, he does not ask much, but thinks:
"Since the runes don't know the basic eight types, are there any runes similar to master-servant induction?"
Xu Hao looked at Gu Qi, his expression flickered, but he didn't say it, this Gu Qi is not pure, and it is difficult to control it if he stays by his side, what if he stabs him in the back?
If there is a rune like master-servant induction, it will be quietly displayed on the Guqi body, and if the other party has a bad motive, he can also find it in time.
Gu Qi was furious by Xu Hao, and said sincerely: "You really don't want to appreciate the face of Bai Yu's son?" Although your strength is not weak, there must be masters on this Lingtai, and there will be no fewer Lingqiao monks. ”
Xu Hao felt the concern in the other party's tone, and said with relief:
"How can a man in the world always cater to others, cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, my generation of monks should study diligently and practice hard, day and night, I accept useless invitations, waste time, what is the difference with the rotten wood and rotten grass?"
Gu Qi was shocked when he heard this, and said secretly: "There are great ambitions between this son's words, if he is sincere, he may not be able to become a great weapon in the future." ”
He looked at Xu Hao and said solemnly: "I just said casually, cultivators should have faith in their hearts, and they should not cater to others, it is great that you can think like this." ”
Xu Hao nodded and said with a smile: "I am very pleased that you can do this." ”
……
Meng Yong was not surprised when he heard that the two subordinates sent were discovered by Xu Hao, he received an invitation from Bai Yu's son, and said in his heart:
"Bai Yu is a well-known man, Xu Hao's battle in the city must have reached his ears, if Xu Hao climbs to the Bai family, what will happen to me?"
He and Xu Hao have formed a bond, but the Bai family is the overlord of Lingtai, even if it is Zhu County's order, he has to be courteous for three points, Meng Yong sighed.
"If he really appreciates Bai Yu, it's a big deal for me to apologize, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, not at a moment's notice."
Meng Yong's expression flickered, then he straightened his clothes and called out to his subordinates: "Prepare the horse." ”
The peach blossom forest is located in the south of Lingtai City, at this time in the middle of summer, the peach blossoms have passed the season of opening, but now here is still falling and colorful, the fragrant grass is delicious, the breeze blows, the pieces of peach blossoms fly in the air, handsome men and beautiful women stroll in it, it is beautiful in an instant, and it is moving.
The peach forest is equipped with stone tables and chairs, and there are already many young talents who have arrived, laughing and laughing, graceful, and some people have faces like stars, and said with a smile: "Yu Gongzi has clever means, and he can make this peach forest like spring all year round, which is really powerful." ”
Bai Yu's face was like a crown of jade, and he was handsome in white, and he smiled warmly when he heard this, and said: "Brother Wei Ying is humble, but it is just a little creation technique, which is unsightly. ”
Wei Ying looked around, there were already more than ten people present, and Meng Yong was among them, and said with a smile: "I don't know how many talented people Gongzi invited here today?" ”
Bai Yu smiled mysteriously: "There are still two people who have not arrived, wait first." ”
Meng Yong arrived, said hello to Bai Yu and sat aside, drinking with his friends, he looked into the distance from time to time, engraved the boredom on his face, and said in his heart: "Xu Hao has not yet arrived, I don't know what Bai Yu's attitude is towards him." ”
Seeing this, his friend Liu Wen on the side asked, "Brother Meng has something on his mind?" ”
Liu Wen is his friend, the second son of the Liu family in Lingtai, with a rich family background, Meng Yong did not hide it, drank a cup of it, and said truthfully:
"Brother Liu doesn't know, yesterday I offended a person outside the city, that person's name is Xu Hao, he is a foreigner, he has good strength at a young age, he is very powerful, and now he is on the Lingtai, Yu Gongzi will definitely get acquainted with this person, and I will be embarrassed at that time."
When Liu Wen heard this, he knew that Meng Yong had suffered a loss, pondered for a moment, and said: "Brother Meng don't have to worry, Bai Yu's son has always served a bowl of water evenly, besides, even if he appreciates Xu Hao in his heart, he will not embarrass you on the surface." ”
Meng Yong's face was still sad when he heard this.
Liu Wen couldn't bear his friend like this, so with your expression flickering, he attached his ear to Meng Yong's side, and whispered: "According to what you said, this person is just in the early stage of the entrance, let's find some masters, and do it behind our backs, then the person will be dead, and no one will care about a dead person." ”
Meng Yong raised his glass and hesitated, his expression was condensed, and after a few breaths, he returned to normal, and said, "Don't worry, let's take a look first, maybe I'm thinking too much." ”
