The village had just been attacked by bandits, and the village was in shambles, with corpses everywhere. The young men cleaned up the mess and carried the corpses and wounded, while the women and the elderly did their best to treat the wounded.

In a dark corner, three young men were working and whispering.

"Brother Qiming, what should we do now, are we still going to join the bandits?"

"Those bandits have been killed, and they can't compare to the cultivators at all."

"After all, it's still the cultivator who is handsome." The two teenagers chattered to the leader Liu Qiming.

"Do you have the opportunity to practice? Or joining the bandits is the easiest way to improve our strength. Liu Qiming's tone was sarcastic, but he didn't want to dampen the enthusiasm of the two, and said: "I have inquired a long time ago, there is a reserve over there, and if you pass the training, you will not be an ordinary bandit, and you will have a good future in the future." ”

"Brother Qiming, these bandits are really murderous, I don't want to mix with them, let's not go."

"yes, yes, I don't want anything to happen to the village."

"Hmph, if you want to protect the village, you have to join the bandits, so that the family will be fine. Today, the monk ostensibly helped us, but in fact he harmed us, and sooner or later the bandits will come back to take revenge, and then no one will be able to help us except ourselves. ”

When the two heard Liu Qiming say this, they suddenly lost their voices.

"Damn, these bandits are really useless, but they killed that old guy." Liu Qiming muttered in a low voice.

"Qiming, what are you talking about, who do you want to kill?"

"You have to take care of it!" Liu Qiming saw that it was his uncle's cousin, and he was even more resentful in his heart.

Liu Ergou is not used to his cousin: "I can hear clearly, you want the bandits to kill, it won't be you who lure the bandits, I'll go tell my father." ”

Liu Qiming was furious when he heard this, and he picked up his fist and smashed it on Liu Ergou's nose. There were all Liu Ergou's friends nearby, and when they saw this, they surrounded him, and Liu Qiming hurriedly ran away in a panic.

There was a little commotion at the entrance of the village, and the nearby villagers hurried to see it, Liu Ergou's father happened to see his son fall to the ground, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Son, what's wrong, is there another bandit." When he said the word bandit, his voice trembled slightly, and he was obviously still apprehensive about what had just happened.

"No, no, Dad, it's Qiming...... He ran. ”

"What? Where did he go? This kid is really uncomfortable. ”

Liu Qiming's two followers stumbled and said, "Qi ...... Brother Qiming said that he wanted to ...... To join the bandits. ”

Before the middle-aged man could speak, an old man was so angry that he knocked on the wooden staff, "This brute, the bandits just killed our relatives, and he still wants to go to the bandits, what a white-eyed wolf." ”

This old man is none other than the younger brother of the dead village chief, who has just been elected to preside over the overall situation. "Gather a few people, get that little cub back, don't let him anger the bandits, and get into trouble when the time comes."

There are bandits nearby, and they don't know if You Ziji has killed all the bandits, if they say that they went to find Liu Qiming in the middle of the night, they naturally don't want to go. But hearing that this kid might anger the bandits, the villagers were indignant, but they didn't dare to let this kid cause trouble.

……

"That bandit still has a lair, and he will inevitably retaliate against the villagers here in the future, so let's stay in the village for a few more days." Lao Dao himself had been in the bandits' den, so he naturally knew that the bandits still had a large number of people, and he was uneasy.

You Ziji listened to what Lao Dao said reasonably, so he agreed.

The three of them returned to the village together, and saw that there were many wounded in the area, but they were simply bandaged and not treated. The old Taoist priest has traveled in the rivers and lakes for many years, and will have a lot of practical skills, such as seeing diseases and treating injuries, and being proficient in fortune-telling tricks.

The farmer did not have extra oil lamps, but fortunately, the sky was sunny and the moon was bright, and he did not delay the treatment, and he was not too tired, so he directly joined the team of rescuing the injured, connecting bones, stopping bleeding, and taking medicine. With the addition of Lao Dao, the treatment effect has become better and many lives have been saved. Both of them were monks, and they were not sleepy, and they were busy until midnight, and finally ended.

Early the next morning, the two had breakfast, there were no chores, and they discussed practice together, although the old Tao was not high, but he knew a lot of common sense of practice, and You Ziji had his own thinking in practice, and the realm was quite high. The two have different talents, and they are rarely able to discuss problems together in practice.

They were more like each other's teachers at this time, learning from each other, making up for what they were missing, chatting more and more speculatively, and the old Taoist priest felt that the bottleneck of his realm seemed to have loosened.

"Brother You, I'll show you what I'm best at." Lao Dao spoke, and he didn't delay pouring a mouthful of bad wine into his mouth.

"As the old saying goes, if I say that I am against others, I am a rookie." He stretched out his little finger and measured it, then changed it to a thumbs-up, "But the ability to escape, even the foundation monk can't compare to me." ”

"Old man, you're drunk and bragging there again." Xiao Huang on the side taunted disdainfully, and the old Taoist priest was full of unhappiness, picked up his big bowl, and poured all the wine in it into Xiao Huang's belly.

Xiao Huang's small body swayed, obviously drunk, and soon fell on the table with a round belly. It didn't dare to speak in front of the villagers just now, and as soon as it opened the chatterbox, it was stunned. You Ziji couldn't have imagined that a talker could be held back for so long, how uncomfortable it was.

"Brother You, look good."

The old Taoist priest supported the table with his palms, and was just about to get up but was stopped by You Ziji by the arm, "The Taoist must be drunk, this is all a housekeeping skill, it's better not to show it." ”

"What are you afraid of, I can't trust others, but your character must have nothing to say." The old Taoist priest said with a big grin: "I have two escape skills, one is to escape, and the other is to change bodies. ”

"Although this is not a powerful spell, it is not something that ordinary people can learn by looking at it."

"Look at this talisman."

After that, the old Taoist priest did not take out a talisman, but used a means to write a rune on the ground with a pen, and then wrote the same rune on the other side of the table, the old Taoist priest pinched the trick and recited the mantra, and then pierced his fingertips, dripping a drop of blood on each of the two runes.

The old Taoist priest pinched the trick in his hand, only to see the rune light around him flickering, the old Taoist turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already on the other side of the table, and you Ziji looked at it with interest, he had always fought empty-handed, and it was the first time he had touched the talisman.

"How about it, it's not bad, I just relied on this ability to escape my life several times, come on, wait for me to show you how to change your body." As he spoke, he walked around the courtyard and found a piece of wood, but when he came back, he found that You Ziji's attention was not on him, and he couldn't help but feel depressed, thinking that this juggling-like spell would not be able to enter the eyes of the young man. But this mood didn't last long, after all, he has no sect and is used to being looked down upon.

When I got closer, my heart was suddenly happy, but it was You Ziji on the ground who depicted his runes one stroke at a time, and it was exactly the same. But the way of the talisman is best done with one stroke, so that it can run smoothly and the talisman can be used.

You Ziji has described it again, and at this time, he is blessed to the soul, and he depicts it again, in one go, and the brushwork continues, and it actually attracts the aura of heaven and earth, and its runes are more perfect than those of the old way. This surprised the old Taoist priest, there is really such a genius in this world!

The old Taoist priest leaned over to take a look, and found that the penmanship of this rune was natural, the layout was evenly proportioned, and it was more powerful than his earth escape talisman, and he suddenly felt itchy and unbearable, and said to You Ziji: "Quickly excite it, let me see the power of this rune." ”

You Ziji said: "Then I'll draw another one." ”

"No, no, just one rune can test the power, you better save some energy, wait a minute, help me write a few runes to try."

You Zi Ji Yiyan activated the power in the rune, but there was no reaction, it seemed that after he painted the rune, he had no connection with the rune. Obviously there is no problem with the rune, the old Taoist priest is a little puzzled, he doesn't believe in evil, he tried it himself, and found that there is indeed no problem with this rune.

The old Taoist priest was a little confused, took a few talismans from his arms and handed them to You Ziji, "Brother You, you try this." ”

You Ziji took the talisman in his hand and stimulated them one by one, although there was some reaction, but You Ziji's ability to control the talisman was really not flattering, and he was not good at using anything outside his body. You Ziji's face was flushed and he didn't want to try again, the old Taoist priest was dumbfounded after knowing You Ziji's physique, although he was a genius, but he was also suppressed by the Heavenly Dao, so when he thought about it, his heart was much more balanced.

Lao Dao took out the yellow paper cinnabar and wanted You Ziji to write a few talismans for him to try, in case of emergency, although You Ziji couldn't use the talisman, but the talisman he wrote was still no problem. It's just that although this earth escape talisman is much stronger than the old Taoist's, it is very different from the one painted on the ground. Without the power of heaven and earth just now, it seems that this kind of superb rune still needs a chance.

As soon as they wrote a few sheets, there was a sudden commotion in the village, and the two hurriedly went out and saw a large number of villagers gathered at the gate of the village. It was the team that went out to look for Liu Qiming last night, but they still didn't catch up after all.

When the villagers saw that they couldn't find anyone, they felt that a catastrophe was coming, and You Ziji hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"Uncle, what's going on?"

"Young man didn't know that there was a little beast in my village who had gone to join the bandits." The acting village chief replied.

"What?" You Ziji was a little surprised, "Does he know the bandits' lair?" ”

"Naturally, I know, it's the eagle's beak peak in the southwest direction."

You Ziji suddenly had an idea, he said to Yi Lao Dao: "Dao Chief, it's not a matter if we wait here all the time, it's better to take the initiative and annihilate the bandits in one fell swoop." ”

"Brother You, this is too dangerous, let's think about it in the long run."

"There are other villages here, we are staying here, but we can't protect other places, so we might as well take the initiative to meet them. Dao Chief, I will ask you to guard it for a little longer. ”

After that, You Ziji saluted the old Taoist priest, then turned to the village chief and said, "Boss, I will definitely bring back the escaped villagers, please rest assured." ”
