Mortal Chapter 16: Fifty-Seven Years to the Heart of the Dao
On the first floor, after the door of the white night room was closed, the originally sleepy thin shopkeeper raised his head and stared at the door that had just been closed on the second floor for a while, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he sneered: "It's another big fat sheep, and with five more ingots of gold, I can go to the black market to buy a volume of the Cultivation Method...... It is not in vain my fifty-seven years of hard work. ”
Recalling the past, when he was fifteen years old, he accidentally entered a black market of loose cultivation, and knew the existence of monks in heaven and earth, so he longed for it, but a volume of the lowest volume of incomplete monastic methods also required a thousand ingots of gold, and since then he robbed an official silver to establish this inconspicuous restaurant in the north of the city, and all those who came in to stay in and out of the house have accumulated a huge sum of nine hundred and ninety-five ingots of gold in fifty-seven years!
And there are very few people like Bai Ye who have a single ingot of gold, and usually carry no less than five ingots of gold like this, the thin shopkeeper panted, and could hardly suppress the excitement in his heart.
"You can't be in a hurry, you can't be in a hurry, you can't capsize at the last step. The shopkeeper slowly controlled his emotions, and repeatedly calculated every next step in his heart, and he decided to prepare all the means he had used over the years to ensure that nothing went wrong.
At night, Bai Ye tore off a piece of cloth from the corner of his clothes and covered his mouth and nose with wet tea, turned his head sideways against the wall and pretended to be asleep, pricking up his ears to listen to the movement, and he concluded that the shopkeeper would soon make a move.
Until the third watch in the second half of the night, Bai Ye was a little skeptical of his judgment, and at this time there was a very light footstep outside the house, and if you didn't pay attention, you couldn't detect it.
"It's coming!"
Bai Ye's heart was beating violently, this was a game of life and death, if he was not careful, he would be in danger of death, Bai Ye couldn't help but regret it a little, and it was only for a moment.
The next moment, he felt a little dizzy in his head, Bai Ye immediately realized that this was the ecstasy incense under the thin shopkeeper, his heart was alert, and he forcibly cheered up, fortunately he was prepared, even he covered his mouth and nose with a wet mouth towel would be dizzy, and the amount of medicine under the thin shopkeeper can be imagined.
Chirping~
The door sounded a slight to the extreme, and the next moment the wind suddenly rose, and the chill soaked the back of the neck, and in an instant, the white night rolled inside, and there was a loud sound in the place where he was lying, and it was the sound of an axe cutting through the head of the bed and hitting the bed board.
Bai Ye suddenly got up, he didn't want to jump to the end of the bed and broke the curtain of the bed and rolled out, his back was numb, and then a sharp pain hit, he touched his back, and the blood in his hand!
At this time, he had time to see the scene in the room clearly, and the thin shopkeeper quickly retreated to the door of the room with an axe, and sneered: "I have a poison on my axe that seals the throat with blood, and you will die in a minute at most, there is no antidote to this poison!"
Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, I didn't expect this kid to be so vigilant, but fortunately, things went well, and the shopkeeper quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
A strong dizziness accompanied by a sudden increase in the feeling of suffocation came to his mind, Bai Ye staggered against the wall, he propped up his eyelids and looked at the door, the thin shopkeeper walked towards him with an axe, and said with a cruel smile: "I have prepared you with four hands, you have dodged the ecstasy incense, the axe, but you have not escaped the poison of the crane top red, you are the second person I have seen in fifty-seven years with such high defense and can dodge my two-handed preparation, it's a pity......"
The thin shopkeeper slowly walked towards Bai Ye, and Bai Ye slowly sat down on the ground under his gaze.
Bai Ye's nerves slowly weakened, and his eyelids slowly closed, but no one noticed that the magic mark between his eyebrows emitted a faint black light, and the old eyes of the shopkeeper did not see this scene.
"Rest in peace!"
The thin shopkeeper raised the axe with difficulty and slashed at Bai Ye's head, even if it was a dead man, he had to make up for it, which was a habit he had cultivated for many years.
The axe fell, and the thin shopkeeper was already happy, such a close distance, even a first-class master in his heyday could not escape, and his path of cultivation had already stepped on one foot.
At this moment, the thin shopkeeper saw the pupils of the young man in front of him widen, and his heart suddenly burst and he accelerated the strength of the axe in his hand!
"Coffin forbidden-instant!"
"What?!"
An axe missed, the person in front of him disappeared, the thin shopkeeper was shocked, and the next moment a huge force hit from the abdomen, he fell out heavily, and he shouted: "Do it!"
Bang bang bang!
Four sturdy middle-aged men rushed into the door with steel knives in their hands, only to see a white-clothed figure jumping from the window and disappearing in a blink of an eye.
"Waste! Not a young man can be kept!" the thin shopkeeper scolded angrily, he lifted his coat, and inside he was wearing a gold silk soft armor, at this time the soft armor part of his abdomen had been sunken in, it was this soft armor that saved his life just now, otherwise he would be dead by now.
"Wei Lie, you go after that kid, and the others quickly pack up their things and leave here. The thin shopkeeper hatefully threw down the axe and gritted his teeth.
......
Three miles away, in a dense forest, Bai Ye lay in the middle of a bush, tearing a piece of cloth from his sleeve and tightly wrapping the wound on his back, the intense pain and the suffocation that had become slight burned his nerves.
"This old man is also too yin, he said that he was prepared with four hands, but in fact he was five-handed, and he also kept one hand for a dying person, and I don't know where he learned it. ”
The suffocation and dizziness in his mind gradually subsided, and suddenly, he heard a rush of footsteps, and when he looked at the source of the sound, he couldn't help but be alert, and he was suddenly alert, and he had chased here.
Although the suffocation and dizziness receded, and at the same time a wave of weakness hit, compared to the two, it was difficult for him to be the opponent of the other party, but this person was walking in the direction where he was......
Escape!
"Coffin forbidden - burning blood!"
Under the forbidden seal, the blood boiled, Bai Ye rose to the sky, running towards the north, the middle-aged man in the rear held the steel knife and chased after him, Bai Ye couldn't get rid of him!
The black dragon sea in the north, the waves are turbulent, a fish jumps up in the sea in the white night, trying to find the direction and swim along the shore, whether the middle-aged man is chasing him or not, the effect of burning blood fades, and the white night instantly faints and drifts in the black dragon sea.
A fierce and huge sea beast approached, and the magic mark between his eyebrows emitted a ghostly light, and the sea beasts slowly sank into the sea, and the white night followed the waves, and finally washed up on a beach.
I don't know how long it took, a crisp and soft voice woke him up, Bai Ye tried to open his eyes, and what caught his eye was a little Lori in red, carrying a bamboo basket on her back, holding a sickle tightly in her hand, her immature little face had a maturity that did not match her age, she looked at Bai Ye, poked with the sickle, and said weakly: "Are you okay?"
"Uh......!"
Bai Ye was weak, one hand slowly raised and fell, little Lori stared at Bai Ye, her eyes were complicated and embarrassed, and then she leaned down and hugged Bai Ye's arm, and helped him up, Bai Ye fainted and fainted again.
......
In an adobe house covered with thatch, the walls and roof were already in tatters, and when Bai Ye opened his eyes again, it was in such a room, the bed was densely covered with patches of large and small sizes, and it was very clean and washed, and there was a bamboo basket upside down next to the bed, on which was placed a thick bowl with yellow stains.
"Are you awake?" asked little Lori from outside the room, twelve or thirteen years old, three feet away from him, cautiously and concernedly.
