Volume 1 Scarlet Jade Pendant Chapter 11 Spiritual Root Qualities
Li Shangyun and Qu Xiaolu walked out of the inn slowly, and it was almost dusk at this time.
Passing through the street corner again, all the corpses displayed here in the morning were taken, and now only two remain.
At this time, there was a child kneeling in front of the two corpses, his eyes were red, and he must have been kneeling all day.
Qu Xiaolu suddenly stopped, and looked at the child with mixed eyes.
He seemed to see himself as he used to be, and his parents died at the hands of the devil.
"Stop, let's go." Li Shangyun urged, wanting to pull his hand.
I saw Qu Xiaolu shake it off and run towards the child quickly.
"Woo... Daddy..."The child was so grief-stricken that he almost lost his voice.
"Are you hungry?" Qu Xiaolu put the bun in front of his eyes.
He had wept bitterly all day, and he was already hungry.
"Thanks... Thank you..."He took the bun and replied with a crying voice.
Qu Xiaolu patted him on the back and comforted him gently.
"Eat slowly, by the way, what's your name?"
"Geng... Geng Yan. ā
"We'll help you bury them properly."
After speaking, Qu Xiaolu turned his head to look at Li Shangyun, his eyes were full of begging.
Li Shangyun pursed his lips helplessly, hesitated for a while, and walked to the two corpses.
Soon after, night fell, under the big dead trees at the entrance of the old town.
At this time, Li Shangyun put down the shovel and looked at the grave buried under the tree.
Geng Yan knelt in front of the grave, still crying.
He remembered everything about the previous night, and the expression on his face became more and more angry.
"Monster! I'm going to kill you! He roared with tears in his eyes.
Qu Xiaolu looked at him beating his chest and slumped, and whispered to Li Shangyun beside him.
"Senior brother, can you recruit him to the hospital?"
"Ahem, this isn't child's play." Li Shangyun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Geng Yan carefully, and said, "However, there is something I'm quite curious about. ā
"What's the matter?" Qu Xiaolu was a little puzzled.
Immediately, Li Shangyun walked up to Geng Yan and asked seriously.
"How did you survive from that monster last night?"
Geng Yan raised his face tremblingly, his face full of tears, and he sobbed.
"It's... Yes..."
"It's okay, speak slowly." He slowly crouched down and said calmly.
"It's a big brother with a black sword, and he saved me."
Li Shangyun's eyes widened slightly, and he asked him more and more curiously.
"And what happened after that?"
"He sent the monster flying with a sword, and then flew into the sky, and then disappeared." He carefully recalled.
As he spoke, he took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Li Shangyun.
"This is the big brother who dropped."
Li Shangyun took the token, only to see that the dirty blood almost covered the entire Xiao character.
"Hmph, a sword flew away, and it was a light achievement, and in the end I killed the wolf demon." The corners of his mouth went up, he raised the token to look at Qu Xiaolu, and chuckled: "Xiao Beichen, he is the person who should be recruited by our hospital." ā
"That! Then you can also look at Geng Yan! There are already few people in your vice hospital, so it's not a bad thing to have one more person. Qu Xiaolu said loudly.
"Well, but before that..."
Li Shangyun raised his right hand, and the aura in his palm gathered slightly, and placed it on Geng Yan's shoulder.
At this moment, Li Shangyun was concentrating on exploring the spiritual root of this child.
The spiritual root of the world is divided into seven grades, which are closely related to the improvement of cultivation talents.
Spiritual root quality: inferior, lower, medium, upper, special, extreme, heaven
As the saying goes, the higher the spiritual root, the faster the cultivation will be upgraded.
The talent of cultivation is determined according to the spiritual root, and the higher the spiritual root, the shorter the time required to learn the sect exercises.
Therefore, people with high-quality spiritual roots will rush to ask for them.
Li Shangyun was full of hope, feeling that this child's spiritual root should not be too bad.
But the next moment, Li Shangyun withdrew his hand, a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, and then he said seriously.
"Geng Yan, your blood feud... That brother has already reported it for you. ā
"What?! Really! Geng Yan was surprised.
"Yes, then, are you still willing to embark on the path of exterminating demons?"
"Iā" he was speechless for a moment.
At this time, Li Shangyun frowned and reminded him with a serious expression.
"Needless to say, you have seen the horror of the demon last night. But in this world, there are countless monsters that are even more terrifying and terrifying than that demon. ā
Geng Yan looked at the grave, and the scene of the demon slaughtering his parents was still vivid.
The next moment, he chewed through the blood on his gums and glared at Li Shangyun with tears in his eyes.
"I'm not afraid!! I'm going to slaughter them all! No more other people's parents like me! ā
"Huh."
Li Shangyun looked at his determined eyes, chuckled, and then nodded.
Half an hour later, it was late at night.
The three of them stood at the entrance of the town, as if waiting for something.
"How long will we wait?" Qu Xiaolu sighed and complained.
"Here we are." Li Shangyun responded immediately.
Suddenly, a carriage pierced through the mist and struck at a rapid pace!
"Boom!!" The wheels of the huge car crushed the mud and sand, and the dust was scattered everywhere!
The next moment, the carriage stopped in front of the three of them.
Geng Yan's eyes widened suddenly, he had never seen such a strange carriage.
The horse and the cart were all entangled in yellow fu, the two horses at the front of the carriage were very tall and strong, and the one next to Li Shangyun was only half of one of them.
And the groom was dressed in black, wearing a black scarf, the upper half of his face was full of scars, and his purple vertical pupils did not look like human eyes at all.
"What did it come from?" The groom glanced at Geng Yan and asked indifferently.
"Zhonglinggen, please, Seventh Uncle." Li Shangyun pleaded.
"Huh! You! Qige sneered, and the word garbage almost squirted out.
Suddenly, Qi Ge threw off the reins violently, looked at Li Shangyun and said angrily.
"Huh! Li Shangyun, do you think that Lao Tzu is usually very idle! I haven't shaved enough since I was a child, have you, but now your skin is itchy again?! ā
"Wait!" Li Shangyun raised his hand to stop, and hurriedly explained: "You don't know how many people we have lost recently. And the master also said that the threshold can be lowered at a critical moment. ā
"People have grown taller and fattered, and they dare to use their master to suppress me, right?" Qi Ge said with a disdainful face.
"You taught! You've said it's been like this before! Ha ha! Qu Xiaolu suddenly pointed at him and laughed loudly.
At this time, Qi Ge turned his head to look at Qu Xiaolu, and the expression on his face was very unhappy.
"Xiaolu! Hiss! Why mess around with this naughty guy. ā
"The master is called! Hee-hee!! He laughed happily.
"Ugh." Qige shook his head and motioned, "Let that kid get in the car." ā
After saying that, Li Shangyun quickly hugged Geng Yan into the carriage.
But the next moment, Li Shangyun grabbed Geng Yan by the collar when he was about to sit down!
"Say it yourself! Keep it in my mind! He glared at Geng Yan fiercely and roared angrily: "If I go back, I find that you are dead in the hospital trial!" I'll throw your carcass and feed it to the dogs!" Did you hear that!! ā
Geng Yan was frightened by him for a moment, but his eyes quickly became firm again.
"I know! I will never let you down! ā
"Let's go!" Li Shangyun let go of his hand.
At this moment, Qi Ge looked back at Geng Yan and shouted loudly.
"Boy, sit tight!"
"Huh? I haven't..."
Qige suddenly flicked the reins, and the horse's eyes immediately burst into flames, and the charm that entwined the carriage emitted a faint light.
The next moment, the whole carriage rose up, galloped away in the air, and soared into the sky!
