Volume 5: The First Song 24: The Mountains and the Rain
Just before Bu Yanqi inadvertently met Qian Chao, the five of Qian Chao had just solved a trouble.
As mentioned earlier, after Qian Chao's five people watched a not-so-lively scene from Shangguan Hong and Luo Ying, they found out that they were being targeted shortly after leaving there, during which the five of them also managed to lure the stalking guys to appear, but those people didn't matter, even if they were discovered, they still pretended to be nothing, and then they simply stopped hiding their figures, and they clearly followed behind the five people, neither far nor close, even if Lu Pingchuan was angry and caught up, those guys actually turned around and left, and they didn't entangle with him, was so angry that Lu Pingchuan jumped to his feet and scolded.
Later, the five of them found out why these guys were like this, and they were worried that there would not be enough people to deal with the five of them, so they sent people to follow them on one side and went back to find someone on the other side.
Two or three days later, Qian Chao and the five people were annoyed by these stalking guys, so they simply went straight to the remote place, hoping to lure those guys to make a move. There are always a few tails behind them, and the five of them naturally don't have the heart to find any relics.
Then the five people found that there were more guys following behind, but even if the other party already looked like seven or eight people, they were still not in a hurry to make a move, so they hung behind the five people and talked and laughed, which seemed to be very relaxed and seemed to be ...... The people have not yet arrived.
It took another day, Lu Pingchuan went to provoke several times, those guys hid when they saw Lu Pingchuan coming far away, and the hated Lu Pingchuan was itchy but helpless.
Finally, the other party seems to have gathered manpower.
After these guys stopped dodging, Qian Chao counted five people, well, it was indeed a lot, there were as many as twenty people.
According to Li Jian's words, there were actually more people, but a few of them hid behind these people and did not show up, as if they were just watching the battle.
"I'm here to take revenge," Li Jian smiled lightly, "Among those who didn't show up were the three Hou Bao who were defeated by Brother Qian, and Jia Yu, who was beaten by Brother Lu a few days ago, well, and the guy who was stabbed by me, it seems that these guys are entangled together, and they want to settle accounts with us outside." ”
"Hey, hey!" Lu Pingchuan rubbed his two big hands together excitedly, "It depends on how many catties and taels they have!" ”
By the time Bu Yanqi was chased all the way by the three guys behind him and inadvertently found Qian Chao, Qian Chao had already finished fighting here.
There were more than a dozen people lying on the ground, some of their heads, faces, and robes were scorched black by the fire, some were groaning with multiple sword wounds on their bodies, some were wrapped in a thick layer of cobwebs and were still struggling, and more were beaten on their faces into a blur and miserable, and their arms and legs were broken, and they were lying on the ground humming.
And Lu Pingchuan was on the outermost side at the time, although the robe on his body was ruined again, but at this time, he was energetically pointing in one direction and scolding, and he was still holding a guy's hair in his hand and carrying one, that person was also beaten beyond recognition, it should be that his hair was really painful, and he was struggling to stretch out his two arms to grab Lu Pingchuan's wrist.
Tang Ping was touching the storage bags on the waists of those guys one by one, and when she encountered someone who was dishonest and wanted to struggle, she kicked the tip of her boot with the tip of her boot, and then scolded twice.
Qian Chao and Li Jian both seemed to have suffered some minor injuries in the fight, this is normal, after all, they are facing more than two dozen high-level qi refining guys this time, Li Jian has already bandaged and sat aside to rest, while Qian Chao is covering his shoulders and treating him by Yan Xuan.
At this time, a voice like a broken gong came from afar:
"Help...... Brother Qian! ”
……
Just when Bu Yanqi was looking for his savior, somewhere outside the sect, there was also a person who stopped, probably aware of the danger lurking around him, and looked around vigilantly.
Entering the Five Spirits Sect from the outside, in addition to Ruixuan Town, there are three places, namely Fuxuan Town, Xiangxuan Town and Jixuan Town, plus Ruixuan Town, a total of four, which is the gateway of the Five Spirits Sect to the outside world, and Fuxuan Town is in the westernmost place, this person looks at its direction, it seems that it is from Fuxuan Town.
The reason why it was determined that this person came in from the outside was because he was not far from Nafuxuan Town and was walking in the direction of the sect, and secondly, because he was not wearing the standard robe of the Five Spirit disciples, and his robe was more elaborate in materials and more luxurious, but this person was clearly wearing a Shimen jade pendant that only the Five Spirit disciples had on his waist.
This person looks to be about twenty years old, tall and healthy, extraordinary bearing, although his appearance is not outstanding, but he also has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but this person seems to have such a fierce anger between his eyebrows at a glance, and it seems that there is something hateful that has been stagnant in his chest.
The surroundings were quiet, and there was nothing unusual, but the man gradually frowned, and drank:
"What the hell is sneaking around, come out!"
Then several figures appeared above the nearby forest, and surrounded him in the middle, not speaking, only looking at him coldly.
"Humph! What's the matter, why do you dare to enter my Five Spirits Sect so swaggeringly now? ”
The people who surrounded him were dressed in different clothes, and at a glance he knew that they were not disciples of the Five Spirits, so he judged that these people were those sneaky loose cultivators in the cultivation world.
But the men didn't speak to him, but looked at him, and one of them, who was supposed to be the leader, nodded and said, "Kill it." ”
……
"Hmmm! Who is it? ”
Because he didn't catch all the guys, Lu Pingchuan was very angry, and he was scolding, so he heard the very ugly cry for help, and the other party also shouted out the three words of Senior Brother Qian, thinking that it should be someone he knew, Lu Pingchuan turned his face and looked, and saw four people flying in a hurry in the distance.
The kid at the front seemed familiar, and there were three people behind him who seemed to be chasing him.
However, these four people were all dressed as disciples of the Five Spirits, and Lu Pingchuan didn't recognize who they were for a while.
"It's Bu Yanqi," Qian Chao recognized it, and said in surprise, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Help...... Senior Brother Qian...... Back ......"
Screaming here, Bu Yan's body suddenly tilted, narrowly dodging a flying spirit sword.
"The ...... who chased me from behind It's a casual practice! ”
Bu Yan finally shouted!
"Hey, hey! Loose practice! ”
Lu Pingchuan was immediately happy when he heard this, loose cultivation, entering the realm of the Five Spirits Sect can be punished without asking the reason, especially this kind of casual cultivation that chases and kills the disciples of the Five Spirits, it is even more unrelenting, just now he was still annoyed by running a few guys, and now there is a loose cultivation sent to the door, of course, it is necessary to accept it in full.
Thinking of this, Lu Pingchuan first slammed down hard, knocked the guy in his hand on the ground, and then walked away towards Bu Yan.
Li Jian also got up to greet him, and when Qian Chao wanted to get up, Tang Ping said "I'll go", and then flew over with Li Jian.
The three guys who chased Bu Yan all the way didn't expect to meet other five spirit disciples here, their matter this time was an extreme failure, originally five people dealt with a Bu Yan Li, I thought that I could eat the kid who could only do business, but I didn't know that as soon as I came up, I was killed by Bu Yan, chased for a few days and died, and now I finally dragged this kid to exhaustion, and when I was about to succeed, five people suddenly appeared here.
If the ordinary casual cultivators saw this kind of scene, they would immediately turn around and flee, but these three people have been teased by Bu Yan in the past few days, and they are determined to kill him, and now they see someone helping, although they are surprised, but when they look at it, they put it at ease, they are just five mid-level guys who are refining qi, so they don't take it to heart, and they are ready to take risks, if these five get in the way, they will simply kill them together!
Bu Yan fell in front of Qian Chao, staggered a few steps, and fell to the ground at once, the toss of the past few days was too tired, Yan Xuan hurried over to heal him.
"Be nosy!" The leader of the three said in a gloomy voice.
"Phew!" Lu Pingchuan snorted and passed by Bu Yan, picked up his big fist and hit it!
However, it was Li Jian who was the first to fight with these people, a white light was in front, and Li Jian's figure was behind, and he swept past Lu Pingchuan's side at once.
"Brother Li, leave me one!" Lu Pingchuan shouted.
"Brother Li, stay alive and ask." Tang Ping also shouted.
"Good!"
"Ding"
"When"
And then there was a scream of "Ahh
The leader of the three people who chased and killed Bu Yanqi was terrified to see one of his companions flying in front of him, heading towards the fastest boy, and then he saw that as soon as the two of them looked at each other, a white sword light came out from behind the shoulders and behind the arms!
Be...... It's sword cultivation!
Then came a sharp whistling!
What is it!
The man was startled, and then realized that there was no way to hide from a big fist in front of him!
With a "bang", the punch made him roll in the air, and as soon as he stabilized his body, he found that the body of another companion was somehow curled up in a ball, and he kept screaming loudly!
This...... Is this the strength of a mid-level Qi refining disciple of the Five Spirits?
That's not right!
That kid who can only do business is so cowardly in the high-level of qi refining, he only dares to escape all the way, of course, that kid has a lot of ghost eyes, otherwise his two companions will not die in his hands, but the three mid-level qi refining ...... in front of him Why is it so powerful?
Yes, a few of my people have been chasing that kid for several days, and now I'm exhausted, so naturally I'm not able to defeat these little guys, it's not good, I can't fight, if I get caught, it's a dead end!
Escape!
"Hey, hey! Eat me one more punch ......"
But...... If you are the only one who escapes, leaving these two people to be interrogated by them, in case the news leaks out......
This time Lu Pingchuan's fist was empty, and the man didn't entangle with him, his body suddenly fell downward, dodging Lu Pingchuan's fist, and then rushed forward.
"He's going to save people!" Li Jian shouted.
"Think beautifully!" Lu Pingchuan shouted.
Save...... Alas...... I'm sorry!
As the man rushed forward, his arms shook in unison, and then his arms suddenly became soft and slender, and he roared out, and the arms were black and shiny, and the palms of his hands became two sharp hooks that were slightly curved, towards the two injured companions......
"He's going to kill him!" Tang Ping saw it.
But it was also a step too late.
"Puff" twice, and the hooks made by the man's two hands had already hooked into the back of the heads of his two companions, and they were killed in an instant!
Lu Pingchuan was furious: "Grandma, you dare to kill!" ”
After the man succeeded, he knew that he should flee quickly, otherwise he had only one way to commit suicide!
"Brother Lu, be careful, it's poisonous!" Tang Ping was horrified after noticing the faces of the two unlucky dead ghosts, and immediately reminded them.
"Click" twice, the two hooks have been hooked on Lu Pingchuan's chest, but fortunately, he is wearing the armor newly refined by Qian Chao, and he only feels a shock in his chest, but there is no pain.
Li Jian had already chased after him with a gloomy face.
The man's arms were raised again, and two sharp hooks hooked at the faces of Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan respectively!
Li Jian's extremely fast side dodged, and then with a white light, the green bamboo spirit sword slashed at the man's black and bright long arm!
And Lu Pingchuan tilted his head and dodged the hook, and at the same time, before he grabbed the sharp hook of the person with his big hand, he almost grabbed the person's wrist, and then suddenly exerted force!
"Ahh
And Lu Pingchuan's force almost pinched off the man's hand, and the black and bright color of the long arm and the normal skin color changed instantly, and the man desperately wanted to retract his arm, but compared to the strength, he was too far away from Lu Pingchuan, and that arm couldn't be retracted at all.
Li Jian straightened his sword and moved forward!
I think this time I will be able to seriously injure him first, and then take him down.
Finally, the guy's eyes were red, the injured arm was raised, the sword light in his hand flashed, and he actually cut off an arm, he snorted in pain, his face turned pale, and he had already turned around and fled when blood was spilling on his shoulder!
Lu Pingchuan has never seen such a ruthless person, and he actually cut off his arm in order to escape for his life!
And Li Jian had already chased behind the man at this time, raised his sword and was about to stab, almost at the same time, he saw that the man turned his head sharply and aimed at the sword blade that was about to stab, and spewed out a mouthful of black mist!
Li Jian's figure shot back at once, and the black concealed a corrupt aura, which was obviously highly poisonous, Li Jian didn't dare to take it hard, so he could only retreat.
Then, when the black fog cleared, I saw that the figure of the person in the air in the distance could only see a small black dot, and it was too late to chase after it!
"Loose Practice...... Is there still such a ruthless character? Lu Pingchuan said and raised the broken arm in his hand.
"It's not like a casual practice!" Tang Ping said.
"It's not like a casual practice, it's like a ...... Dead in general. Li Jian also felt that that person was not like the loose cultivation he had seen before.
"It's probably a family member, but I don't know which family it is," Tang Ping said, and then saw the broken arm in Lu Pingchuan's hand, which had lost its blood color, and a large scorpion tail that had been drawn in black ink could still be seen on the pale arm, and the tail needle was on the back of that hand.
……
Lu Pingchuan's side ended the fight, and at the same time, not far from Fuxuan Town, the young man who was ambushed also ended.
It should be even more intense, the nearby trees are lodging and broken, the ground is either blasted out of the big pit or criss-crossing ravines, there are also Dao sword marks on the left near the mountain wall, and there are a few spirit swords inserted into it irregularly, the strange thing is that in addition to the fire everywhere here, there are also a few trees that are almost sealed in a whole large piece of crystal ice, of course, there are also monks with panic or despair on their faces, and the fire on the ground is also scorched, Under the black smoke, you can see that the burning corpse is actually a charred corpse.
And the young man was holding a guy by the neck with one hand and asking.
"You don't look like you're a casual cultivator, but like someone else's clerk who was ordered to kill me, right?"
The restrained guy didn't speak, just stared at each other coldly.
"Hmph, generally you should have begged for mercy when you reached this point, you have a bit of backbone, let's say, as long as you tell who sent you out, I will let you live, how about it?"
"Phew......"
"Okay, since you don't say it, then forget it, in fact, I don't really want to know, there are still your people secretly watching over there, anyway, they can bring the news back, and you are useless."
As he spoke, a cold breath appeared on the young man's hand, and the man he had caught struggled a few times, and soon the expression of despair on his face froze.
As soon as he let go, the cold, stiff man fell to the ground and split apart with a clatter.
The young man smiled, turned and walked away.
It was a while before someone flew straight away from a nearby hideout.
……
Somewhere unknown.
A man with a broken arm was kneeling on the ground, as if pleading, and the man sitting across from him had a gloomy face.
Then someone hurried in and whispered in his ear.
"What! You can't do such a little thing, what use do you want! The man said angrily, looked at the kneeling man again, raised his foot and kicked him to the ground, "One will not work, and the other will not work!" It's a shame that you usually say all the big words, but when it comes to the end, none of them will be used! ”
"Childe ......" The person who came in behind glanced at the one-armed man who fell to the ground, and said cautiously, "There is a reason why things are not going well today, the one we dealt with today is very strange, not like Jiuxuan, but the means of using fire and ice are too amazing, far beyond what is commonly seen, so ......"
"Oh? What is so unusual about using fire and ice? ”
"I can see clearly from the side, seeing that person uses fire, it should be the true legend of Qixia Mountain, and that person uses ice, it seems to be the authentic means of Bibotan, such a character, we have never seen it!"
"Could it be...... Song Zhen...... How did he get back? ”
After a few words, the man glared at the man with the broken arm on the ground again, and shouted:
"What about you? How can the five of you deal with one, and you can make such a mess, and you will escape back to you? ”
"Childe...... We could have done it...... But I didn't expect to meet five guys, one sword cultivator, one big man body cultivator, and one ...... It should be a girl from the Imperial Spirit, and their methods are indeed extremely clever, so ......"
"It's them again...... What an event! ”
"That'...... Childe, let's ...... next."
"Alas, you go back once, don't make a noise, and quietly bring Shuhai to see me."
The faces of the two people who heard this changed, raised their eyes and looked at the son, and they didn't dare to say anything more, but bowed their heads and answered:
"Yes."
……
There was much more to this day than that.
Just outside the Five Spirit Sect, Luo Ying and Lu Shuang worked together to kill a powerful demon beast, at this time, several people had already put aside the anger when they confronted Shangguan Hong, the value of this demon beast was enough for a few people to make a small profit, especially Yan Shuang, when she was in the Nine Immortals, her status was precious, and she had never worried about the matter of spirit stones and pills, and naturally someone gave them when they were used, where is it like now, if you want to use spirit stones or pills, you have to earn it by yourself sword by sword, although it is a little hard, But it's also interesting to be around a few friends, she didn't take these foreign objects in her eyes before, but after arriving in the Five Spirits Sect, she experienced the taste of sweat and harvest. Now she has slowly adapted to the days in the Five Spirits Sect, and she has become more and more rare and dependent on a few partners around her.
The five of them packed up and flew away.
After they flew away, on the mountain wall not very far away, vine rose behind a pair of hands and played with the green pothos that was blocking the view, in order to see more realistically.
Behind the natural pothos is a hidden hideout.
"Those really aren't the people we're looking for?"
"No, what we are looking for are three men and two women, just now there were one man and four women, and the cultivation is not right, we are looking for the middle level of qi refining, and the one just now is the high level of qi refining. I said Lao Zhou, didn't the beauty of those four girls just now hook your heart? I see your eyeballs are going to fall out! ”
"Hehe, in the end, it's a big sect, there are many beautiful women, especially the white-haired one, it's really rare, it's just born and extremely beautiful, if it's ...... elsewhere"
"If you are elsewhere, you will also waste your efforts, that white-haired woman is a sword cultivator, what are you going to do, to send him to death?"
"Hehe, isn't it you, if we do it together, I'm afraid we won't be able to take those five people?"
"Phew! When will we start this hand-to-foot work for you! ”
"It's hard to say, those five people are not simple, even if we can take them down, we will not be comfortable, and someone will inevitably be killed or injured."
"Okay, let's stay honestly, it's almost over, more than a month will pass in the blink of an eye, and I will be practicing here for a while. This time the matter is very simple, just a mid-level kid, and if you get your hands on it, it's a lot of spirit stones, and it's not enough for you to be happy? ”
"Hehe, Wu Niang is right!"
And at this moment, in another place far away outside the sect, a thrilling battle had just taken place.
Yun Xi was panting and staring at a person dressed as a female disciple of the Five Spirits opposite, but she was sure that that woman must not be a disciple of the Five Spirits.
Today she went out with Bai Lin, and bumped into this woman outside, and felt strange when she saw Yun Xi, although the woman was also dressed as a disciple of the Five Spirits, but her temperament was completely different from that of the Five Spirits disciples, and she looked awkward, and then she stepped forward to ask, and then she found that this woman did not have the jade pendant of the disciples of the Five Spirits, so she was sure that the other party was a casual cultivator who mixed in, and then she took it.
However, Yun Xi tried her best, and it was a draw, this can be said to be her first battle after breaking through the small five levels, but she didn't expect to be able to maintain an undefeated situation with all her might!
That woman is also a sword cultivator, but Yun Xi asked herself that Mu Xiufeng had never seen such a person, among the same level, she only put one Li Jian in her eyes, where did this woman come from now?
"Who the hell are you?" Yunxi asked.
"You can see it, I'm a loose cultivator." The woman replied.
"Infiltrate the Five Spirits Sect, what are you going to do?"
"Unless you win against me, don't talk about it."
"I haven't seen such an excellent casual cultivator, it's still a sword cultivator."
"Well, Mu Xiufeng is really good, you are the second Mu Xiufeng disciple who impresses me, I used to think that Mu Xiufeng was just like this, it seems that I was wrong."
"Who's the first one?"
"The first one? Hmph, who of you Mu Xiufeng's disciples is above you, do you still have to ask me? ”
This sentence hurt Yun Xi's self-esteem a little, she has always regarded herself as Mu Xiufeng's rising star, but immediately she thought about it, and then gently put away the sword.
"I know who you are."
"Oh?"
"You're here for revenge, aren't you?"
The woman did not speak.
"Avenge the sword piercing the chest, yes, then let you go today, and see if you can get your wish."
The woman looked at Yunxi for a while, said "yes", and then flew away.
Bai Lin leaned over and asked:
"Sister Yun, who is that woman here for?"
"If my guess is correct, this woman is the second time to enter the Five Spirits Sect, she ...... It's here to kill Li Jian. ”
"Oh?"
……
"Hehe, I said Lao Bu, it must be that you have earned too much spirit stones, so it makes people worry about it, isn't it?"
After Lu Pingchuan fell, he made a joke about Bu Yan, and then saw that there were still many guys on the ground who had been knocked out or caught in front of him, and he felt that it was an eyesore, so he rolled his eyes and hurriedly drove those people away.
Anyway, the fight was fought, and the robbery was robbed, leaving these people useless, just send them away.
The previous high-level disciples who were captured, some sighed that they were unlucky and ran away, even if they had hatred in their hearts, they didn't dare to show it at this time, of course, there were also more hard-hearted ones, staring at the fierce Lu Pingchuan, this time it could make Lu Pingchuan angry, and no matter what he was holding in his hand, he knocked the man unconscious at once, and then called the two boys and asked them to carry the blind guy away.
He used a severed arm to beat people, which scared those people a lot, they were entrusted by Hou Bao and Jia Yu and others to come to find trouble with Qian Chao, but they hit a big nail, not to mention being beaten up, and the body was robbed clean and slippery, and now the scary guy is beating people with an arm that I don't know whose it is, and they have already scared them into two trembling, and the wind under their feet has fled.
"Eh, it almost broke, Sister Tang said to show you."
As he spoke, Lu Pingchuan handed an arm to Qian Chao.
Qian Chao was fine, but Yan Xuan was startled, and even his face turned pale with Bu Yan.
"This kid cut it off himself, but I didn't tear it off......," Lu Pingchuan also distinguished.
"These people...... It's not like a casual practice! Bu Yan said as he panted out.
"Well, indeed, Senior Brother Nabu, have you offended anyone recently?" Tang Ping asked on the side.
"No, I do business, I make money with anger, and I am most afraid of grudging with others, and it is impossible to offend people?"
"That's strange...... Tang Ping was holding two small bags in his hands, which were taken from the bodies of the two deceased, but there was nothing in them to prove their identity, "However, looking at their storage bags, they are not the shabby kind of casual cultivators, so who is going to deal with you?" ”
"This ......" Bu Yan was a little embarrassed, but in the end, he was in business, and he could be regarded as a well-informed person, "I have heard that some people have suffered accidents recently, and there are many people I know, eh...... Pregnant! ”
"What?"
"Those who have accidents, including me, have high and low cultivation, and their methods are deep and shallow, all of which are different, but one thing is the same...... Any idea what it is? ”
"Eh, don't sell it, say it quickly!" Lu Pingchuan Road.
"Those people can be regarded as people who go in and out of various towns, can communicate inside and outside the sect, and are relatively well-informed!"
"What is this?" Tang Ping was puzzled.
"Well, that's definitely the case, if it weren't for that, I wouldn't be able to find anything special about these people, Ruixuan Town is the most well-informed for me, but the people who have accidents in other towns seem to be similar to me, no matter how big or small the business is, but the accidents are some...... Well, the bag inquired about the same characters. ”
"I don't understand...... What happened to Sonai lately? ”
After hearing this, a few people naturally didn't understand what was going on.
"Hehe, Miss Yan, I have long heard that Miss Yan of Qixia Mountain is not under the 'Mei Min Shuangshu', and my small shop is lacking in business, so I don't know ......"
"Don't even think about it, Sister Yan's elixir is for our own use."
"Oh...... Good...... Miss Tang, the spirit wine you just gave is really a good product, it must be the true inheritance of Elder Tang, and I feel full of aura for a while, if such a good thing is put in my shop......
"Senior Brother Bu, you are really a businessman, you just escaped death and are worried about my wine again?"
"Hey......
