Chapter 30: Discovery
"Questions?"
Qing Yunzi couldn't help but feel a little displeased when he heard this, and his tone became stiff.
Feeling the coldness in Qingyunzi's tone, Bai Kongshan was frightened, and suddenly knelt on the ground, don't look at Qingyunzi's kindness to his disciples on weekdays, but Bai Kongshan knows how terrifying Qingyunzi is once he starts a fire, don't look at himself as a big disciple, and now he is still the acting head, and he will also die very miserably, there were two senior brothers in front of him.
"The master spares his life! The master spares his life! The disciple is unintentional. ”
Hearing Bai Kongshan's words, Qing Yunzi couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Shut up, what's going on, you explain it to me. ”
"Master, that Yu Chengwen is a student of the former city chairman of Yecheng, and the method of earth fire refining is also passed down from his hands......"
After Bai Kongshan told Qingyunzi the information he found about Yu Chengwen at this time, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Qingyunzi has been cultivating for more than sixty years, and he is thoughtful, and after listening to Bai Kongshan's words, he just thought about it for a while, and then he figured out the cause and effect.
For a while, his face became even colder, and three months ago, it was rumored that Yecheng had a cultivation technique in his hand that could make people go directly to the immortal realm.
Because of this incident, Baikong Mountain went down the mountain to investigate, because of some quarrels, Bai Kongshan killed the former city chairman of Yecheng in a fit of anger, and hung his head on the city gate, but in the end, Baikong Mountain dug three feet into the ground and did not find the exercise, and finally returned to Qingyun Sect empty-handed.
Qing Yunzi knew about this, but he didn't care about it at the time.
Qingyun Sect has been rooted in the vicinity of Yecheng for more than three hundred years, and it is a hegemon-level force near Yecheng, even the Zhao Imperial Court does not dare to conflict with Qingyun Sect, it is just to kill a city lord.
And since Qingyunzi took over as the head of Qingyun Sect, the influence of Qingyun Sect has been declining day by day, and the originally strong Qingyun Sect has a tendency to decline, all because Qingyunzi has not broken through to enter the upper three realms, although he is still the first person in the Yecheng region and even the Zhao Kingdom, but he has not distanced himself too much from others, his strength is not enough to deter the large and small sects near Yecheng, and in recent years, with the longevity of Qingyunzi, it is even more so, and many small forces attached to Qingyun Sect have become wavering.
So after Bai Kongshan killed Xi Chen at that time, in fact, Qing Yunzi had some praise in his heart, and Qing Yunzi needed to kill chickens and monkeys to warn other people with bad intentions.
And the result was as Qingyunzi expected, the Zhao court didn't say anything, and a new city lord was sent a month ago, Yu Chengwen.
Qingyunzi hadn't seen Yu Chengwen, but he had heard Bai Kongshan say that Yu Chengwen was very "acquainted" and took the initiative to come to Qingyunzong to worship the mountain, but Qingyunzi didn't see him, and at that time he had just found a way to help him break through the realm.
Qingyunzi has not asked much about the affairs of Qingyun Sect in the past few years, most of them have been handed over to his disciples, and he has concentrated on cultivation and seeking to break through the realm, but there has been no result.
A month ago, almost a few days before Yu Chengwen arrived, Bai Kongshan accidentally got a technique of absorbing the qi of earth fire to quench the true yuan, and handed it to Qing Yunzi.
Qingyunzi was overjoyed, so he appointed Baikong Mountain as the acting head, designated Kongming Cave as a forbidden land, and began to concentrate on cultivation in order to make a breakthrough, and at the same time ordered to go down and buy a large number of Huoyun Grass.
"I see!"
Qing Yunzi couldn't help but have a trace of murderous intent flashing in his eyes when he thought of the disciple he had used to try to cultivate the Earth Fire Quenching Method before, who had been burned to ashes by the Earth Fire seven days ago.
"Originally, I thought that Song Ming's cultivation was too weak to withstand the entry of the earth fire qi into the body, but I didn't expect that the earth fire refining method itself was problematic. ”
At this time, with Qingyunzi's heart, he couldn't help but feel a little afraid.
The method of earth fire quenching is to use the qi of earth fire to quench the true element and the impurities in the body, and Qingyunzi has not been able to break through to the upper three realms for a long time, because the true yuan is mixed.
After getting the method of earth fire quenching, Qing Yunzi did not try, but first let his disciple Song Ming cultivate, and only after it was really effective, he began to cultivate, but he did not expect that Song Ming, who had cultivated well, suddenly spontaneously combusted, and then Qing Yunzi discovered the hidden danger of this exercise, which would accumulate a large amount of earth fire qi in his body.
But his cultivation is faster than Song Ming, and his true yuan has been nearly half quenched, and the earth fire qi has already filled his body, but he was suppressed by his strong strength, so he did not ignite his physical body, but the more he backlogged, the more it explodes, and once it explodes, then Qingyunzi will be wiped out, and as his progress accelerates, he can't stop if he wants to, if he hadn't found that the thousand-year-old cold ice sealed in the Kongming Cave can remove the excess earth fire qi in his body, he will probably end up with the same fate now.
"This cultivation can't move to the back, I'm afraid it's also a hidden danger of this exercise, Yu Chengwen's heart can be punished! But I'm afraid he wouldn't have thought that the old man had already understood his plan, and he had also found a remedy, and breaking through the Seven Realms was just around the corner. ”
Qing Yunzi's thoughts here kept changing, but he was kneeling in Baikong Mountain outside the Kongming Cave at this time, and he was extremely frightened at this time, not knowing what punishment he would receive.
"You immediately gather the disciples in the sect to strengthen vigilance now, it is impossible for Yu Chengwen to have no other backhand, don't let him hinder the old man's cultivation. ”
"Yes, Master, that Yu Chengwen he..."
"Don't worry about him for now, after the old man is out of the customs, I will go to Yecheng to thank him in person,"
"Master, I understand, the disciple has retired, and I wish the master a successful breakthrough as soon as possible. ”
Bai Kongshan, who had survived the catastrophe, left Kongming Cave with a happy face.
......
Walking out of the street where the Shuxiangyuan was located, Li Ku pretended to be ignorant of the situation behind him and wandered around Yecheng.
As early as when he first came out of the Shuxiang Garden, Li Ku found that someone was staring at him, and to put it more directly, they should be staring at the Shuxiang Garden and Yu Chengwen.
Thinking that Yu Chengwen hurriedly got himself out in the end, in combination with the current situation, Li Ku knew that Yu Chengwen might have encountered some trouble.
While walking, Li Ku was looking for a remote place and doing it on the street, it was too attention-grabbing, easy to startle, he was going to find a remote corner and ask well, Yu Chengwen didn't want to trouble himself when he was in trouble, Li Ku felt that he couldn't just leave.
As he walked, a remote alley came into Li Ku's eyes.
When people walked there, they all bypassed a little, and from a long distance, Li Ku could smell the rich smell coming from there.
"That's it!"
Li Ku suddenly quickened his pace and disappeared into the alley.
The alleys are littered with rubbish piles, the occasional busy rat stockpiling up food for the winter, and a few broken straw mats on the ground, which look like someone has made their home here.
Gao Ming and Liu Wei were a little annoyed when they followed Li Ku, but Lu Hui didn't give them other orders, just let them stare at Li Ku, so along the way, they could only walk slowly after following Li Ku's ass like an old man.
"What about people?"
After a stunned effort, Gao Ming suddenly found that the target was gone.
"Gone to Junk Alley!"
Liu Wei replied at this time, he had just seen Li Ku running into the alley.
"What is he doing there?"
"Maybe it's urgent! It's where a few beggars live in the city, and there's no one to do it. ”
As the two spoke, they waited on the side, the smell in the alley was strong, and Gao Ming and Liu Wei didn't want to stick to it.
But after a while, the two gradually felt that something was wrong.
"It took so long to pee?"
"Go over and have a look. ”
The two hurriedly ran towards the alley, and at this time they didn't care about the stench in the alley, if Lu Hui knew that they had lost their target, I was afraid that they would be stripped of a layer of skin when they went back.
"What about people?"
After rushing into the alley, the two found that there was no figure of Li Ku here.
"I saw him come in,"
The end of the alley was sealed, and the two of them easily checked the alley.
"Are you looking for me?"
After entering the alley, Li Ku hid in a tree on the edge of the alley, and when he saw the person who was following him appear, he jumped out.
Hearing Li Ku's voice, Gao Ming and Liu Wei didn't know that they were exposed, the two glanced at each other, and their hands secretly reached to their waists at the same time.
"Bang, bang......"
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!"
After discovering the intentions of the two, Li Ku kicked the two into the garbage heap......
Walking out of the alley, ignoring the strange eyes of the pedestrians on the road, Li thought hard about the information he had obtained from Gao Ming and Liu Wei.
The two are members of the Yecheng Black Tiger Gang, which is a gang composed of a group of loose cultivators in Yecheng, mainly doing some work to exploit other monks who have no support.
From the mouths of the two, Li Ku didn't ask anything useful, only knew that they were instructed by the gang leader Lu Hui to follow him, and Lu Hui was in the Shuxiang Garden at this time.
"How did Brother Yu get involved with the Black Tiger Gang?"
Li Ku's heart was full of puzzlement, he had an urge to rush to Yu Chengwen to question at this time, but then he endured it, feeling that there might be some hidden secrets, and he felt that he should investigate it carefully.
Quietly avoiding the few people watching outside the Shuxiang Garden, Li Ku hid aside.
Gao Ming and Liu Wei are just little minions, they don't know much, Li Ku didn't get anything useful from the two, and Lu Hui is different, he is the leader of the Black Tiger Gang, he must know a lot, as long as he catches him, Li Ku feels that he can know what is going on.
"Lu Hui should be the guy who hid in the shadows when I just came out of the Scholar Garden,"
At this time, hiding on the roof opposite the Shuxiang Garden, Li Ku, who was hiding his figure, couldn't help but secretly think that when he came out of the Shuxiang Garden just now, he felt two obscure breaths looking at him, and now Gao Ming and Liu Wei are excluded, and the one left is Lu Hui......
