Volume 1: Forsaken Land Chapter 153: The Old Man
As soon as Kong Laosan's words fell, in the shadows, a thin black shadow like a piece of paper seemed to slowly rise from the ground, and finally turned into an old man's appearance, the person in front of him was Li Lao, but at this moment, Li Lao's face still had a trace of surprise, and there was a trace of strange taste in his eyes when he looked at Kong Laosan.
"Hehe, the Taoist friend is strong, I'm afraid that there are few people below the middle stage of foundation building. I wonder if you've heard of the Western Regions Spirit Puppet Sect?"
Li Lao thought about it, his eyes flashed, and he seemed to ask casually.
"Oh, Elder Li has also heard of the Spirit Puppet Sect, and I have heard that the Spirit Puppet Sect of the Western Regions is based on the puppet technique, but I don't know much about the others!"
Kong Laosan's heart moved, and he opened his mouth without a trace.
"Alas, when the old man was young, he had a relationship with a Taoist friend of the Spirit Puppet Sect in the Western Regions, and that Taoist friend was a god with amazing thoughts, but with the collapse of the Spirit Puppet Sect, these remnant disciples are also missing, and now it is unknown whether that person is alive or dead, but the puppet technique that the Taoist friend just said is only one of the two great magical powers of the Spirit Puppet Sect, and there is no extraordinary divine thought, even if the puppet beast is strong, how can it be controlled freely? In addition to the puppet, the Western Regions Spirit Puppet Sect also has a inheritance called "Three Void Soul Condensation Technique", but few people know it! ”
Li Lao stroked his white beard, and said with a sigh, it seems that there is a lack of interest, for Li Lao now, I am afraid that there is nothing else that can arouse interest except for the Five Elements Evil Pill.
It's just that when Kong Laosan heard this, his heart moved, but he left the topic without a trace.
"Elder Li, can you tell me about your plan now? Now that the ancestor of the Jin family has a big birthday, then Jinling Ping will definitely come back to celebrate his birthday, when are you going to do it?"
"Hehe, don't worry, don't worry, all we ask for is the Five Elements Evil Pill, that Jinling Ping is talented, he reached the late stage of foundation building at a young age, and he was set by the ancestor of the Jin family as the head of the Jin family in the next generation, if he makes a rash move, I'm afraid that the two of us have ten lives and it is not enough to compensate, this matter will be handed over to me, these days Daoyou can go around the city at will, the ancestor of the Jin family has a big birthday, and now Jinling City is unprecedentedly lively!"
Li Laohe smiled, didn't say much, said a few more polite words, and immediately turned into a black shadow and disappeared without a trace, but Kong Laosan frowned slightly, thought about it, and went back to the house to meditate again.
The birthday of the ancestor of the Jin family is naturally indispensable to celebrate, and now the whole city is full of lights, and it is very lively.
The formation around the entire Jinling City is opened, in case the demonic creatures come to make trouble at this time, the mortal cultivators in Jinling City live together, most of the mortals here are the descendants of the family, some people who are born without spiritual roots and cannot cultivate, will settle down here, in addition to the children of these Jin families, there are also some people with foreign surnames, but there are not many of them, of course, as mortals in Jinling City, they are not allowed to step out of Jinling City for half a step in their lives.
Among cultivators, there are not many people who are generally willing to marry mortals, and there are many reasons, the most important of which is the gap in longevity, mortals live no more than 100 years, and birth, old age, sickness and death are common feelings, and for cultivators, even if they are just ordinary qi refining cultivators, it is easy to live over 100 years old, and watching their beloved slowly grow old with their own eyes is not something that everyone can bear, which also causes immortal cultivators to generally be unwilling to marry mortals in the world.
At this moment, Kong Laosan walked on the street, feeling the festive scene around him, and unconsciously thought of when he was young, on the night of the New Year, with his father's various experiences in the city, fireworks and firecrackers all over the ground, the whole city was lit up with lights, and the red couplets were all over the place, and the lively atmosphere unconsciously mobilized the emotions......
However, everything is already wrong!
Kong Laosan sighed lightly, feeling a little depressed in his heart, and was about to go home, but before he turned around, there was a sudden commotion from the corner of the street, accompanied by bursts of girls' cries and angry shouts and insults, and immediately, a figure was thrown out of the crowd, and the bluestone ground was instantly stained with a layer of blood.
"Phew, you're poor, you don't have money and still want to buy pills, don't get out, be careful that grandpa chops you, our shopkeeper of Jindan Pavilion is the second young master Jin's person!"
The little guy rolled up his sleeves and said angrily, seeing that the people around him were gathering more and more, the little guy seemed to be a little timid, and left in a hurry after leaving two cruel words.
The rules of Jinling City, mortals are protected by Jinling City, under normal circumstances, mortal cultivators have conflicts, as long as the law enforcement team of Jinling City is alarmed, they will determine that the cultivators are at fault, not only to apologize, but also to pay a lot of spirit stones, this provision is unique in Jinling City, after all, most of the mortals here are also descendants of the Jin family, and the little guy only practices the fourth layer of qi, and he is naturally a little timid to watch so many people.
Kong Laosan saw this scene from afar, and couldn't help but shake his head, it seems that it is the same everywhere, the rules are just rules, there is no strength, everything is in vain, just like in front of him, bullying mortals happens from time to time, and now the ancestor of the Jin family is on a big birthday, and those law enforcement teams are busy with their feet not touching the ground, how can they have time to pay attention to such trivial matters.
Just about to leave, but his consciousness was subconsciously swept away, and he was suddenly stunned on the spot, and his original mood suddenly fluctuated, and a hearty voice unconsciously appeared in his ears:
"If there is something in the future, you can go to the Jiang family in Bazhou to find me, don't worry, there is a sister covering, in the future, you will cause a lot of trouble on the rivers and lakes, and someone will carry it for you. ”
"Haha, don't worry, my sister will take you to the rivers and lakes in the future!"
......
The voice was still in my ears, but when my eyes swept over the man who was lying on the ground and rolling in pain, and a girl beside him who looked to be only five or six years old, my heart twitched. The man in front of him was the one who went to Muyafang City with Jiang Xiaodi.
Kong Laosan stepped on his feet, and the whole person disappeared without a trace in an instant, and reappeared again, and he had come to the man.
At this moment, the man's face was stained with blood, his body was as deeply hooked as a crouching prawn, lying on the ground and rolling constantly, his beard was unshaven, it seemed that he had not been repaired for a long time, he looked much older than when he first saw him, and there was already some gray hair on his head, and he looked extremely depressed.
"Qing Luodan...... I want Qing Luodan......"
"Third grandpa, are you okay, wake up, wake up, let's go home......"
The girl on the side comforted with a cry, a pair of small hands tightly grasped the corner of the man's clothes, as if she wanted to help him up, but the girl was only five or six years old, how much strength she could have, she couldn't drag it at all, and the man at this moment seemed to be a little confused, and kept shouting "Qing Luodan" in his mouth.
Seeing this scene, most of the people around showed a gloating look, and only a small number of people couldn't bear it and wanted to step forward to help, but they didn't dare to act.
Kong Laosan sighed in his heart, took out a pale yellow pill the size of a fingernail from his waist, and flicked it lightly, and the pill went directly into the other party's mouth.
However, in just half a cup of tea, the man who was constantly rolling on the ground, and the man who was in great pain finally quieted down, and opened his eyes with difficulty, and in his bloodshot eyes, it looked like he hadn't closed his eyes for several days and nights, and he looked extremely haggard.
"Thank you...... Thank you Immortal ......"
The man stumbled. Although Kong Laosan had countless questions in his heart, when he saw the man's appearance, he still beckoned, called the two servants, and asked the man to be carried to the inn.
When there were only three people left in the room, Kong Laosan didn't speak, and directly took out a ghost face from the storage bag, and gently applied it, and the whole person suddenly changed a lot.
Seeing Kong Laosan's actions, the man was a little puzzled at first, but after a while, he seemed to think of something, a pair of eyes instantly widened, and a touch of surprise flashed on his face.
"Where do you live......? Where's my sister? Why are you here? This girl ......."
Kong Laosan said, his eyes involuntarily looked at the girl beside him who was staring nervously at him, a pair of watery eyes seemed to be able to speak, Kong Laosan said halfway, and then couldn't say any more.
"Ahem......"
Hearing Kong Laosan's question, the man smiled bitterly, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a layer of dead ash flashed on his face, "Xiaodi, she...... I went two years ago, and this girl is called Yinrong, and she is her daughter......"
After saying this, the man couldn't say any more, he lay on the table and sobbed in a low voice, a handsome man, forced to such a point, even Kong Laosan couldn't help but sigh, and when he heard the news of his sister's misfortune, Kong Laosan's heart also seemed to be torn apart, and the pain was incomparable.
After a while, when the man calmed down, Kong Laosan ordered some wine and food, but he tasted the wine alone, looking at the little voice that was gobbling up, but there was a trace of warmth in his heart.
"How did my sister die?
After he was full of wine and food, Kong Laosan stared at the man and asked word by word, his tone was flat, but there was a cold and murderous intent invisibly.
