Chapter 18: A Homicide

In the courtyard, Qi Zixiao stood on the ground, holding a wooden knife in his hand, his eyes were level ahead, and suddenly, with a movement of his palm, a looming knife light appeared, and the air was torn.

With a "click", the wooden knife in Qi Zixiao's hand broke, Qi Zixiao casually threw the wooden knife aside, and a lot of broken wooden knives had piled up on the ground.

It had been almost seven days since he was injured, and after swallowing three Luhua Dan, Qi Zixiao felt that his injuries had basically recovered.

Now he has not the slightest difference from usual, except for the fact that he can't fight too fiercely.

The injury was slightly better, Qi Zixiao couldn't help but start practicing the sword technique, and was taught by the man who was perfect to the extreme for a long time in the golden palace, and his perception of the "Thunder Knife Technique" skyrocketed.

It's a pity that this knife technique pursues the ultimate speed, and Qi Zixiao doesn't dare to use sharp weapons at home, so he can only use a wooden knife instead of a real knife.

However, the wooden knife itself cannot withstand this extreme speed, and after a single knife, it often collapses.

The pothos walked over from the side, holding the pile of wooden knives and walking towards the firewood room, intending to use it to light the fire.

The aunt sat in a gazebo in the distance, gently playing a guqin, and the melodious sound sounded far away.

As a former rich lady, her aunt is naturally proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The aunt also wanted to pass on the advantages of her body to the little girl, but unfortunately, the latter was stunned and didn't learn a single thing.

After practicing the knife technique for a while, Qi Zixiao glanced at his aunt in the distance, he quietly walked out of the house, came outside, and left the house for a distance, he took a deep breath and felt this long-lost freedom.

"Madam, the young master is out!"

At this time, Luluo poked out her little head, glanced at the direction where Qi Zixiao was, and reported to her aunt.

"I know, after staying at home for so many days, it is estimated that he is also stuffy, so let him go out for a walk."

The aunt pouted, the movements in her hands kept stopping, the melodious and tactful melody continued, and the pothos couldn't help but close her eyes, a little intoxicated, although she didn't understand it, but she just liked to listen to it.

……

At this time, Qi Zixiao came to the restaurant, bought a pot of wine, a few side dishes, packed them in a food box, and then came to Yizhuang and saw Li Shenzhou who was basking in the sun in the yard.

"Uncle Li, I've come to see you."

Qi Zixiao opened his mouth with a smile, took a wooden board and put it underneath, and put the food box on it to open it.

Looking at the wine and food, Li Shenzhou glanced at Qi Zixiao and snorted, "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, what do you kid think about me?" ”

"Look at what you said, do I have to try to bring you delicious food, Uncle Li, you underestimate me too much......"

Qi Zixiao opened his mouth with a grin.

Li Shenzhou picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of meat, Qi Zixiao poured a glass of wine for the other party, the wine and meat were down, Li Shenzhou nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, it seems that your kid is really attentive." ”

"Hehe, Uncle Li, it's good if you're satisfied."

Qi Zixiao opened his mouth and said.

"I haven't come to see you because of my injuries in the past few days, so I've been staying at home to recuperate."

"I know."

Li Shenzhou said with a smile on his face, "I wanted to make a move at the time, who knew that your kid suddenly became extremely violent, and even I was shocked." ”

"Ah, Uncle Li, you were there at the time!"

Qi Zixiao was a little surprised.

"Hehe, I don't know what's going on in Qingxian, but I'm also a former night watchman."

Li Shenzhou pouted.

"Boy, if you want me to say, although you have become a spirit master now, don't let go of the martial arts, the way to control the spirit is still immature, there are bumps everywhere, there are all kinds of restrictions, unless it is a critical moment, otherwise, it is best not to use spiritual power in ordinary times."

"As far as I know, many top spirit masters, they are also top martial arts powerhouses, even if they lose their spiritual power, martial arts cultivation is extremely terrifying."

Hearing this advice, Qi Zixiao nodded with a serious face, "I understand, thank you Uncle Li for your guidance." ”

Next, Qi Zixiao asked the other party some things about the spirit master, the other party was well-informed, a lot of things he had seen and heard, and even some information about the spirit calamity made Qi Zixiao feel frightened.

In the next few days, Qi Zixiao practiced the knife technique at home for a while, and then ran out and came to Yizhuang with some wine and food, listening to Li Shenzhou boast about his glorious past, when the other party was happy, he would also guide Qi Zixiao to practice the knife, but compared with the figure in the palace, he felt that Li Shenzhou's guidance seemed to be at a primary level.

If you have to say it, one is simply the teaching of skills, and the other is to the essence, maybe the former is immediate, but if you want to reach the peak, it is basically impossible.

The latter is possessed of infinite possibilities, and mastering the essence is the mastery of the so-called 'Tao'.

However, Qi Zixiao didn't say it, every time the other party pointed out, he would appropriately show an expression of amazement, which greatly satisfied Li Shenzhou's vanity.

……

In the courtyard, Qi Zixiao's figure walked around, a straight knife in his hand kept waving, in the courtyard, the knife light flickered, it was almost to the extreme, every breath, Qi Zixiao cut out at least ten knives!

"Boom"

There was a dull sound, and a knife light slashed above the ground, and a large crater exploded in the ground, revealing wet dirt.

Qi Zixiao held the straight knife in his hand, his whole body was steaming hot, and his clothes were soaked.

Qi Zixiao looked at his body, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, now that he had recovered from all his injuries, not only that, but he could feel that his cultivation was at the peak of the first grade, and he was only one step away from the rebirth realm.

Under the slender and masculine body, a majestic qi and blood flowed.

"According to the previous progress of this body, it will take at least a year to reach the peak of the first grade, but I didn't expect this injury to let me go further."

Qi Zixiao muttered to himself.

He vaguely felt that it seemed to be related to the so-called divinity in Sansso's mouth.

"Now that the injuries have all recovered, it's time to go to the county government to report."

Qi Zixiao muttered to himself.

After staying at home for so long, he was really bored, and every day in addition to practicing knives, he went to Li Shenzhou to listen to stories.

At dinner, Qi Zixiao mentioned it to his uncle and aunt, Qi Zhen happily agreed, but the aunt was a little dissatisfied, thinking that Qi Zixiao should go home and be a rich second generation who eats and waits for death.

However, she only complained, and Qi Zixiao didn't take it to heart.

The next day, Qi Zixiao came to the county office, and everyone in the county government was a little excited to see him, and they called Brother Zixiao directly.

In the past, everyone was colleagues, and both sides were called casually, but now, Qi Zixiao obviously felt that his status in the county government had improved by leaps and bounds.

Qi Zixiao also greeted them with a smile.

Zheng Hu saw Qi Zixiao and stepped forward with a smile, "Have you recovered from your injuries?" It's still busy here, you can continue to cultivate at home, and you won't be missing a penny. ”

"Don't be, head, I'm not idle, you better find me something to do."

Qi Zixiao made a bitter face, and at the same time returned the cheats of the "Thunder Knife Method" he had obtained before to the other party, and asked Zheng Zhutou to help put it back.

"Haha, okay, but I'm not in a hurry today, in order to celebrate your return, I'll treat you to Chunfeng Lou tonight."

Zheng Hu took the cheats and put them away, and said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

When the others heard this, their eyes lit up and they laughed and spoke. Chunfeng Building, the largest Qinglou in Qingxian County, costs a penny of silver for a pot of wine in it.

Qi Zixiao smiled and nodded, not refusing.

However, they were talking to each other here, and suddenly, a servant outside hurriedly arrived, and said a little solemnly, "Head, no, there is a murder in the county!" ”
