Chapter Ninety-Nine
In late April, everything in the world is prosperous again, except for some mountain temples on the peach blossoms, most of them are already blooming and thanking.
Chu Xiqing found that the closer he got to the capital, the more common the figure of the qi practitioner became, and even shops selling magic weapons, magic weapons, and elixirs appeared, of course, they were all traded with spiritual money. He regretted that he didn't ask Chen Xueyue for more spiritual money at the beginning, so he only dared to be moved when he saw a white jade spirit sword when he passed by the magic weapon shop. Some of the mortals are accustomed to it, while others are unheard of, and the difference is great.
After separating from the caravan, he had been walking on the official road, on the road there were many county seats, densely populated, and the road was smooth, so he walked for five or six days in a row, and on this day he came to the outskirts not far from a county seat, and he was surprised to find that there were many mortals who dragged their families and mouths, most of them were in tatters, and their faces were thin from famine, and they seemed to be refugees who had fled.
Chu Xiqing was dressed in green clothes, and there were many sets of clothes hanging from Taiqing around his waist, although he had traveled for many days and had dust on his body, he still looked out of place among these refugees.
From the elderly in their seventies and eighties to the young children of two or three years old, these refugees gather in the suburbs, waiting to enter the county seat. Chu Xiqing passed between them, naturally attracting a lot of attention, the lack of brilliance in their eyes was a complex emotion that Chu Xiqing couldn't understand at the moment. This made him feel overwhelmed, and he only felt that his heart was in turmoil, and he looked down from the refugees, and quickened his pace to pass between them.
"Do you want to die? Bring it to the uncle!" Someone in front of me shouted.
Chu Xiqing looked up, and a brightly dressed young man kicked a tattered young man to the ground, and the young man was protecting something in his arms. The little girl on the side was startled and exclaimed, "Brother!" Then he stopped in front of the young man, and with a crying voice, shouted at the young man, "Don't bully my brother!"
"Hehe, what are you?" The young man smiled cruelly, "I didn't listen to you as a pariax earlier, the things that my uncle can fancy you are a blessing that you cultivated in your previous life, so don't bring them quickly!"
The young man had blood in his mouth, endured the pain and got up to pull his sister behind him, glared at the young man angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't give it." He clutched a jade bracelet in his hand, the only relic of his mother.
"Uncle is an immortal master, you are looking for death for untouchables!" After saying that, he slapped the young man, and the palm was cold.
Since Chu Xiqing's "teaching" by Chen Xueyue and Ji Lingze's betrayal, his eyes have crossed the surface of things and began to think at a deeper level, he will weigh the consequences of doing one thing and not doing it, and the benefits and losses he gets.
He hurried for twenty days to act cautiously and restrained, and occasionally shot to ensure safety, when following the caravan, once on the mountain road, he met an old wolf with a group of wolves blocking the road, the three qi practitioners who were sitting in the caravan at the beginning were not present, under the leadership of the old wolf, the defense built by the caravan guards was quickly breached, Chu Xiqing tried not to use the aura to save people from the wolf's mouth, although many people died in front of him, he was still indifferent, wanted to drag the three of them to come, and finally had to perform a swordsmanship, The sword qi sliced through the old wolf's skin and frightened it back. Afterwards, Chu Xiqing performed a Taoist method called "Qi Cleansing Technique" to "wash away" the traces of his shot.
I have known for a long time that many qi practitioners look down on mortals, but today when he saw a person relying on the identity of a qi practitioner and treating mortals with such a lofty attitude, and not taking mortal lives as his life, he inexplicably ignited a cloud of anger in his heart.
The boy was knocked to the ground, vomiting blood from his mouth, and felt a layer of frost forming in the middle of his palm, and spreading to his body, and suddenly his whole body was cold. But he stubbornly usurped the bracelet and didn't let go, his face was full of anger, there had never been a moment when the killing intent was so strong, and the little girl behind him cried out at once.
A feeling of powerlessness suddenly rose in his heart, and he looked at his sister with tears on her face, she was the only concern, and she had promised to let her live a good life, but it was impossible to think about it.
"If you don't die, I, Meng Zhen, will definitely kill all this kind of people in the future." The young man swore secretly, and glanced at the hateful young qi practitioner with resentment, and he reached out and handed out the bracelet with a trembling hand.
The young man smiled disdainfully, and was just about to take it, when suddenly there was a sound of wind in his ears, and then a punch smashed into his right face with a golden light.
The punch was so powerful that the young man was knocked out and fell to the ground, his teeth shattered a lot, he was beaten, and he fell to the ground for a while, but the sharp pain came, and turned into anger, he spat out the blood in his mouth, and roared: "Dog mongrel, I'm going to kill you!"
Chu Xiqing squatted on the ground to check the young man's injuries, the young man Meng Zhen's face was gloomy, don't look over, don't look at this god-like young man who is about the same age as him but can beat away his enemies.
The young qi practitioner pinched the trick, and the temperature around him dropped rapidly, and ice picks condensed in the air, shooting towards Chu Xiqing and Meng Zhen!
Chu Xiqing turned around, his expression was indifferent, and the index finger and middle finger of his right hand were brought together, and a sword qi swept out, shattering all the ice picks.
The blue light flashed, and the surrounding space seemed to freeze, even though it was the end of April, but it was as cold as winter, and a layer of frost formed on the ground. The young man's palm was cold, and a broken rune appeared, and every movement would condense ice slag around his body, and he ran towards Chu Xiqing and punched out with one palm. Chu Xiqing had comprehended the complete Qilin Avenue imprint, the young man's mutilated runes were full of loopholes in his eyes, Chu Xiqing pointed out a finger, the red light condensed at his fingertips, and immediately exploded, and a line of red light hit the weak part of the rune, "Bang!" The power of the palm was gone, and the aftermath still shook the surrounding leaves.
The young man was frightened, raised his hand and pressed it, and his aura condensed into a big cold hand, and slapped it towards Chu Xiqing. Chu Xiqing's spiritual qi swirled, and he displayed a "Divine Walking Step" recorded in the Taiqing Li Jianshu, as if walking in the air, and the elusive footwork made it impossible for the big hand to attack.
Pulling away from him, Chu Xi snorted coldly: "Are you like this?" What is there to be arrogant about. ”
The young man was obviously angry, and said angrily: "You go to die!" Runes appeared in each of his palms, he closed his hands, the two runes merged into one, and a thick ice dragon slaughtered Chu Xiqing from his palm.
This scene surprised everyone present, and Chu Xiqing felt a burst of surprise.
There was darkness between his hands, there was a little light in the darkness, and there was a round of silver light in the middle of the darkness, like the stars and the moon in the night sky, the light was blazing, his arms were round, the darkness expanded, and the silver moon became bigger like a silver shield in front of him, the ice dragon hit the silver shield, and Chu Xiqing felt that his arms were numb from the shock.
"Boom!" As the night shattered, the momentum of the ice dragon also weakened a lot, Chu Xiqing's heart palpitated, and he had no choice but to mobilize the aura of his whole body, and split out a huge sword qi, the sword intent was directional, and he was indomitable, dividing the ice dragon into two, and the sword qi was undiminished, drawing a trace several meters long on the ground.
Chu Xiqing's whole body aura was almost squandered, which had never happened since he reached the peak of qi training.
The young man was taken aback, Chu Xiqing took this opportunity to quickly come to him and punch him in front of the door, "Knock!" The young man's eyes darkened, and he collapsed.
"Whew!" Chu Xiqing touched his face and said in his heart: "If I continue to fight like this, I will lose." I just don't know what kind of cultivation he is. ”
Chu Xiqing fumbled around the young man, and finally only found a bag with ten yuan of spiritual money and a few jade bottles containing pills.
He held a piece of spiritual money and pulled out the spiritual energy, and after the spiritual energy disappeared, the spiritual money became a waste stone. He found that the bag of spiritual money was light blue, but what Chen Xueyue gave him was dark cyan, he didn't know if there was anything special about it, he only knew that he had made a small profit.
After taking the loot, what to do with the young man became a problem, "Why don't you kill a hundred?" He looked around at the refugees around him, and suddenly had an idea, Chu Xiqing said loudly: "This person will be handed over to you to deal with at will."
Chu Xiqing walked to the young Meng Zhen's side, at this time Meng Zhen was trembling, his face was painful, and the little girl hugged him in fear, hoping to give him a little warmth. Chu Xiqing said in a gentle voice: "Little sister, can you let me take a look?" The little girl immediately got up, her face was full of tears, and she said in a trembling voice: "Please, you must save my brother." Chu Xiqing nodded, then leaned over and pressed one hand on the young man's chest, and a stream of spiritual energy mixed with the fire qi between heaven and earth crossed into the young man's body, slowly dispelling the cold and frost in the young man's meridians.
The young man's face gradually relaxed, he slowly opened his eyes, saw Chu Xiqing, and said astringently: "Thank you benefactor." Chu Xiqing shook his head and said, "There are some injuries in my brother's body that I can't heal completely, and I'm afraid that there will be dark diseases."
"Meng Zhen is fortunate to have survived, and he hasn't asked his benefactor for his name yet." Meng Zhen clutched his chest and said.
"My name is Chen Mo, do it casually, Brother Meng doesn't have to be my benefactor."
When Meng Zhen heard this, he was even more bitter, and said, "Little sister, come and meet Chen Enren." The little girl immediately came and was about to kneel, but Chu Xiqing hurriedly supported her, "Meng Rou greets her benefactor." ”
Chu Xiqing was still in a hurry, and after chatting for a few more words, he immediately left.
Just after Chu Xiqing left the young man, there were refugees who rushed up to pick up his clothes, and after someone took the lead, a group of refugees swarmed up, grabbing silver, and picking clothes.
Chu Xiqing walked for a short time, turned back again, and saw the young man who was almost naked, he squatted down and said softly: "Thinking about it, we are not going to die, I don't want someone to harm me in secret, so you have to die." A small wisp of sword qi cut through the young man's skin and flowed into the heart along the blood, and finally exploded in the heart, the young man's body twitched, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and he died quickly.
Chu Xiqing looked at the gradually cooler corpse on the ground, and was in a trance, he was so calm when he killed someone for the first time in the real sense.
