On this day, Nie Fei counted his fingers, and it had been twenty-two days since he cultivated in the cave this time. In the past 20 days, more than a dozen bottles of Xie Ling herbal liquid have all been refined, and the level of spiritual energy is close to the fifth layer of qi refining, and the fire technique and the water thousand illusion technique in the palm of the hand have also made great progress, which can be said to have gained a lot.

"It's time to go back. Thinking of this, Nie Fei sorted out his things and put them back in the storage bag. The location of this cave is very hidden, it is an excellent place for cultivation, Nie Fei plans to go back to the trading place again after going back this time, buy a large number of Xie Ling grass, make it into medicinal liquid, and still come to this cave to cultivate.

He gathered up, got up, and was about to break the branches at the entrance of the cave and get out of the cave. Suddenly, he heard the rustling of footsteps in the distance, and walked from far and near towards the entrance of the cave. And listening to that voice, it's not one person, it should be two people. Since someone had come, Nie Fei stopped and waited for the two to pass in order to avoid exposing the cave.

In less than a moment, the two men were in front of the cave. Nie Fei only hoped that the two of them would come over quickly, but at this moment, he suddenly heard one of them say "Huh", as if something had caught his attention. Nie Fei's heart froze, "Could it be that the cover at the entrance of the cave was seen by this person?"

I only heard one person say: "Sister Ying, look, there are strange things here." Since the sound was not loud, and it was blocked before it entered the cave, it sounded a little blurry, but Nie Fei still heard a hint of familiarity from the tone of his voice, "This voice is so familiar, who is it?"

I heard a woman's voice softly reply, "I'll see, what's strange." This voice, Nie Fei is too familiar, the person who spoke is Zhao Ying, only she speaks in such a soft tone.

Nie Fei couldn't help but wonder, "Zhao Ying and this person, what are you doing in this barren mountain and wilderness?" At this time, he suddenly thought of who the familiar voice was before, it was Lu Qing. Nie Fei was even more puzzled by this recognition of the two, and he didn't know what strange the two had discovered, it was best not to find the hole. Nie Fei was a little apprehensive, in case he was found hiding in the cave, he would have to take a lot of time to explain.

After a long time, there was no movement outside, and I thought that the two of them were observing something. After another moment, Zhao Ying said, "This ...... This seems to be a handprint made by the palm fire technique, Brother Qing, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Nie Fei relieved himself, it turned out that the two of them had seen their palm prints on the stone wall, he had been worried for a long time, and thought that the two of them had discovered the entrance to the cave.

Thinking about it, Lu Qing nodded and said, "Sister Ying is right, I can conclude that this must be a handprint made by the palm fire technique." Look over there, there used to be a tree in that place, but now there is only ashes left in the ground, someone must have used the palm fire technique on that tree, so I dare to conclude that someone has practiced the palm fire technique here. ”

"Brother Qing, you are so smart. Zhao Ying clapped her hands and praised. Nie Fei, who was eavesdropping, also nodded again and again, this Lu Qing has a quick mind and is observant, and he is indeed a smart person.

I only heard Zhao Ying continue: "Brother Qing, in your opinion, how many layers of this person's exercises have you reached?

Lu Qing said: "I can't see how many layers he has reached, but judging from the depth of that palm print, he is much more powerful than me." Even if I used all my strength, I couldn't make a palm print two inches deep on this stone wall. ”

"You are at the third level of the Qi Refining Period, and you are about to reach the fourth layer. Could it be that this person is already above the fourth level of qi refining? This is strange, our entire Heavenly Spirit Castle, there are only a few people who are above the fourth level of qi refining, but we really can't think of anyone who would come here and practice the technique of fire in the palm of their hands. ”

Lu Qing smiled: "It doesn't have to be from our Heavenly Spirit Castle. ”

Zhao Ying also smiled, "Brother Qing is right, why didn't I expect it? Lu Qing laughed, obviously very satisfied with Zhao Ying's words.

Nie Fei was in the cave, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This Zhao Ying, why are you scolding me for no reason?"

Suddenly, Zhao Ying let out a "huh" again, probably discovering something strange. "Brother Qing, you see, these palm prints, combined, seem to be a flying word. ”

"Isn't it? ”

Zhao Ying said with a smile: "Brother Qing, I came into the mountains with you this time to find Nie Fei. But we have been looking for him for five days, and we still have not seen him. You say, are these palm prints left by him? Or why are they flying words?"

Nie Fei suddenly realized that the two of them were looking for him.

I only heard Lu Qing say: "It's impossible. That waste is only a layer in the Qi refining period, how could such a deep palm print come out? As for why it is a flying word, maybe it was taken by that person's hand and it has no meaning, or that person's name also has a flying word in it. Zhao Ying replied: "I don't think it can be him, that waste man, how can he have such a strong means." ”

Hearing this, Nie Fei faintly felt inappropriate in his heart, these two people didn't seem to have any kindness to him. This mouthful of "waste" is by no means a joke. At first, Nie Fei didn't deliberately hide his tracks, but after hearing these words, he couldn't help but be careful and didn't move.

Lu Qing sighed, "That waste Nie Fei, these days, I don't know where I went, I only sent someone to inform my father, saying that I want to go to the mountains to cultivate, but where to cultivate, I haven't said anything." It hurt the plan I had prepared, because he didn't show up, and he couldn't carry it out for a long time. Otherwise, the ginseng in his storage bag would have been in my bag long ago. ”

Zhao Ying said: "I hope he never shows up." ”

"Then how can it, if he doesn't show up, who is the spirit ginseng going to?"

"Hmph......" Zhao Ying snorted lightly, "You know the spirit ginseng, have you thought about me? When you implemented your plan, it was when I was slighted by that waste, and when I thought about it, I got goosebumps all over my body, and I couldn't help but want to vomit." Suddenly, Zhao Ying sobbed softly, "You...... You don't have me in your heart at all. ”

Lu Qing comforted him with kind words, "Sister Ying, how can I not have you in my heart? Look at what you said, you were slighted by that waste, and I feel good in my heart? You also know that my father spoils him very much, and ordinary things can't bring him down at all." My father has always hated it the most, and he has to seduce him and act according to the plan, and then I rush out again, and I am afraid that he will not obey him. Even if my father spoiled him again, he didn't dare to sue my father in front of him. Ying Mei ...... Ying Mei ...... Don't cry, I really have no other way, so I have to wronged you. Don't worry, I will show up in time, and you don't have to suffer too much at all. It's a big deal that you beat him up again and vent your anger. ”

Zhao Ying cried for a while, and after a while, she gradually stopped crying. The footsteps of the two sounded again, and they walked into the distance.

Hearing the words of the two, Nie Fei was shocked into a cold sweat. Only then did he know that as soon as he came to this world, he was seduced by Zhao Ying and was involved in this conspiracy, and Lu Qing wanted to steal his spiritual ginseng. Fortunately, I overheard it this time, otherwise I would inevitably fall into the calculations of the two.

He waited for the two of them to go away, opened the hole, got out of the hole, and after carefully demonstrating the hole, he chased them in the direction where they had left.
