Chapter 19: Shadows in the Night
Arrow bamboo is an ornamental plant unique to the Tianyuan continent, and the wealthy families in the south of the continent generally like to plant this plant in their yards.
Arrow bamboo is born straight, there are not many branches, but the branches and leaves are evergreen all year round, and the mature plants are generally two to three meters high, if you plant a bush in the yard, it is quite ornamental. Moreover, the old arrow bamboo, the branches are very tough, and it is a good material for making arrow branches, which is also the origin of the name arrow bamboo.
However, the arrow bamboos planted by Kong Ming are all young plants less than one meter high, and he is chaotic to plant the entire yard full of arrow bamboos, if someone wants to walk from the gate to the wing where Kong Ming lives, they must go around in a crooked circle in the arrow bamboo bushes!
Why did Kong Ming plant arrow bamboo in such a way, no one knew the reason for it. Even Kong Jun was curious, and couldn't help but ask Kong Ming what was going on. But Kong Ming's answer was very strange, saying that he occasionally felt it when he was cultivating the Wood Burning Technique, and felt that planting plants in the yard could make him feel the wood system Yuan Power better, which would help improve his cultivation.
It doesn't matter if planting arrows and bamboos is really conducive to improving cultivation for the time being, since Kong Ming has such an idea, then Kong Jun can only express his support. However, in the eyes of outsiders, such a move will inevitably be muttered: Is this second young master not good yet, or why would he be stupid again?
However, in the past ten days, Kong Jun took Kong Ming to visit the rest of the major forces in Cuenca City, even the Chang family was no exception. In the process of visiting, Kong Ming properly showed his cultivation as a high-level elementary, which made the major forces really understand that the genius Kong Family Er Shao had really recovered.
As for Kong Ming's strange move of planting trees, for the time being, only the people within the Kong family know about it.
With Kong Ming's wisdom, of course he wouldn't do something meaningless, but no one knew Kong Ming's true intentions at the moment.
Now, apart from Kong Ming himself, there is no second person who knows that he is already a wood fire twin spirit body. It's not that Kong Ming deliberately concealed it, but that he had other plans.
For Kong Ming, if he didn't act with a bit of mystery, he wouldn't be the Wolong military master who was the best in the world!
After planting the arrow bamboo, Kong Ming officially announced to Kong Jun that he was going to retreat for a period of time to see if he could raise his cultivation to the peak of a high-level Yuanshi, so that he could attack the Yuanshi realm in the future!
In the rumors of the outside world, Kong Ming has retreated to the realm of the Yuan Master, and this statement is obviously an exaggeration. After all, Kong Ming had wasted three years, and now he hadn't even reached the peak level of a high-level Yuanshi, so how could he advance to the Yuanshi realm?
But for Kong Jun, he was naturally very happy to see Kong Ming working so hard, and immediately issued an order in the family: During the second young master's retreat, no one is allowed to disturb him, and he, Qin and Fu, the two elders, will take turns to protect the second young master!
With such a posture, it is natural to hope that Kong Ming will be able to gain something during the retreat to make up for the lost three years!
It can be said that the Kong family is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the entire family must serve Kong Ming!
Since Kong Ming announced the retreat, time has passed imperceptibly, and another three days and three nights have passed.
At this time, it was already late at night, and it was already the second half of the night.
In the night sky of the Tian Yuan Continent, there was no moon, and even the stars were only talking about dozens of them. Therefore, even if some starlight shines down from the sky, the night is extremely dark.
Suddenly, the gate of the courtyard where Kong Ming lived silently opened a thin crack inward, and then a pitch-black shadow slid in through the slightly open door!
The Black Shadow is obviously a person, but his body skills are extremely skillful, moving silently in the darkness, like a swimming fish merging into the sea. ...,
The black shadow sensed the breath in the chamber, and he could clearly feel that the extremely abundant wood Yuan Force was gathering in the chamber!
The black shadow couldn't help but secretly exclaim: this second young man of the Confucian family is just a high-level Yuan Shi's cultivation, and he can actually gather such an abundant wood system Yuan power, which is worthy of the name of genius. And this rare wood spirit body is indeed a great weapon to increase the speed of cultivation!
It's a pity that such a genius was actually born in the Kong family!
For the sake of the future, he must be strangled in the cradle, and he must not be allowed to really grow!
So, tonight must be successful!
It's a pity that a miracle medicine like Lost Mind Scatter can be encountered but not sought, and it is already a great opportunity to be able to get a dose occasionally. Alas, I don't know what kind of shit luck this second young man of the Kong family will recover after the lightning strike.
Such a miracle is simply unheard of!
Otherwise, why risk attacking him tonight? Even if he succeeds, he must immediately flee away, and there will be no way to lurk in the Kong family again!
The Black Shadow had always been cautious in his actions, and he would have disdained such a night attack. What's more, he has a big plan, and he will not take this step unless he has to.
The reason for everything is because Kong Ming is too demonic!
After this kid regained his senses this time, it was obviously even more unfathomable than before! Obviously he was only a twelve-year-old boy, but his eyes seemed to be able to see everything? When the black shadow usually met him, he always had a feeling of uneasiness, as if all his plans had been seen through by him!
Such a wicked boy must not stay!
It was this killing machine that made the Black Shadow decide to take action!
After entering the courtyard silently, what greeted the eyes of the black shadow was naturally the dense arrow bamboos planted. However, how can these arrowhead bamboo seedlings, which are less than a meter tall, stop the black shadow's progress?
The black shadow bypassed an arrow bamboo in front of him, and just took two steps forward, but saw the door of the wing room suddenly open, and the tall Kong Ming appeared at the door.
In the dark night, Kong Ming's eyes were as bright as stars, staring at the black shadow firmly, which made the black shadow suddenly have an uneasy feeling!
Obviously he is just a teenager, and he is obviously just a cultivator in the Yuanshi realm, why can he put so much pressure on himself?
The dark shadow secretly gritted his teeth, trying to calm his emotions down.
In any case, you can't be intimidated by this teenager! Even if he finds out, he will be killed here!!
The black shadow secretly encouraged himself, but Kong Ming sighed and said to the black shadow: "Old Fu, I can't imagine that it is really you! Our Kong family treats you well, and I respect you like a teacher in my younger generation, I ask myself if I have offended you somewhere, why can't you tolerate me?"
This dark shadow that sneaked into Kong Ming's courtyard was none other than Fu Sen, the second elder of the Kong family who was responsible for protecting Kong Ming's Dharma tonight!
Except for Kong Ming, I am afraid that no one would have imagined that the dignified family elder would actually attack Kong Ming. If you don't take precautions, with the strength of Fu Sen's middle-level Yuan Master, sneak attack Kong Ming, a junior of the Yuan Shi realm, how can it be unreasonable?
