Chapter 85: The Livelihood of Liangzhou
Ji Xiaofan turned his head and looked at the two of them carefully, and saw that these two were young people in their twenties, and they seemed to be just ordinary sect disciples, but in these two people, they could clearly feel their peeping and ill intentions towards the people in Tsing Yi.
"Don't worry about these young people, they are all here for me, for this treasure qin in my hand, they must have heard the sound of the piano just now and found it, greedy people can be seen everywhere!"
In the process of several people talking, Elder Qi, Lord Jin Feng, Cheng Jianshan and the others sitting at the middle table did not make a sound to stop them, but just talked in a low voice while drinking tea and eating, and did not care about the situation here.
The man in Tsing Yi took a sip of tea from the teacup and asked Ji Xiaofan: "Little brother, your group looks all majestic and extraordinary, I think they should all be from the sect, I don't know if you can tell me who the sect is?"
Hearing this, Ji Xiaofan turned his head and looked at Elder Qi, the old man glanced at this side, nodded slightly, and Xiao Fan then told the people of Tsing Yi about his sect: "Sir, we are under the Muyun Sect, and I happened to pass by here to meet Mr. Xinghui when I went out to do business this time!"
The people in Tsing Yi lit up when they heard this, and they arched their hands and said, "Ao, no wonder, it turned out to be the famous super sect Muyun Sect in Kyushu, in Lanxuan, Xiaxia Prefecture, and he has been looking up for a long time!"
And after the two men who had been peeping heard the words of the man in Tsing Yi and Ji Xiaofan, their faces changed, they looked at each other, and walked out after a while.
Half an hour, everyone had already finished their meals, and they were almost resting, and their own disciples went to the counter to settle the bill, and then Elder Qi got up and beckoned everyone to continue their journey.
Qi Chang, Ji Xiaofan and others said goodbye to Lan Xuan, a man in Tsing Yi, and walked out of the restaurant to continue their journey.
Not long after Ji Xiaofan and the others left, Lan Xuan, who was sitting in the restaurant, shouted coldly: "Little people, cowering, it's really annoying, get out!"
The shopkeeper, Xiao Er and the others were startled, but when they looked out, they found that there were fifteen or sixteen people in different costumes, all holding weapons and looking around sneakily outside the inn.
"Something's going to happen!"
Lan Xuan stood up and kicked a stool to the door of the restaurant, walked over and sat on it with the 'phoenix blood', and then slowly slid his fingers and plucked them on the strings, "Ding, Ding, Ding, Dong, Dong......" The refreshing sound of the piano was slow and melodious, how could there be an atmosphere of imminent fighting, and those people outside hesitated to rub forward with their weapons.
"Listen to the man in Tsing Yi, our alliance leader of the Three Mountains and Six Caves has taken a fancy to your Baoqin, if you know each other, you will obediently hand over the Baoqin, and we will let you leave safely, otherwise, you will definitely die today!"
A sturdy middle-aged man stood outside the door and shouted at Lan Xuan.
Lan Xuan looked coldly at the people outside the door, sighed in a low voice, and suddenly the sound of the piano "Knock, knock, boom......" murderous aura suddenly erupted from the sound of the piano, and the entire inn was suddenly murderous inside and out!
"Kill ......," the outsiders shouted together, waving their weapons and rushing up.
"Troubled times are rampant, no one talks about morality, a song of grievances, forget each other and return to Huangquan......" Lan Xuan plucked the strings with his hands, chanted softly, lightly pressed the strings with his fingers, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, both hands ran the exercises, a pinch of the strings, the sound of the piano was as strong as the thunder of the nine heavens, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, like the sky falling apart, the seven strings on the wild waves rose instantly, wave after wave rushed to the door, the tangible sound of the piano roared for an instant and flooded the range of dozens of zhang outside the door.
The sound of the piano is like a knife, the sound of the piano is like a sword, harvesting the lives and limbs of a foolish and greedy beetle, before and after only half a cup of tea, the sound outside the inn gradually stops, and they return to calm together, only the melodious and melodious sound of the piano ripples and lingers.
On the ground were pieces of blood, flesh, and bones, and all those who were trying to snatch Lan Xuan's spiritual treasure were left behind, and all of them died under Lan Xuan's "Phoenix Blood" Baoqin.
The shopkeeper trembled, frightened, shrunk behind the counter and stared blankly at the mess outside the door, such a rush and cruel scene of death and injury, I couldn't accept it for a while, my face was pale, my chest was stuffy, my throat was surging, I wanted to vomit faintly, I couldn't bear it and didn't vomit it, and I was in pain.
In fact, he had seen similar scenes before, the world in Kyushu was not peaceful, the weak preyed on the strong, bullying the weak abounded, and there was no particularly abnormal scene seen today, but today's killing scene was too bloody.
"Alas!" continued with a long sigh as he slowly moved the piano back into the hall.
"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, I broke a lot of things in your store, this is a little compensation, please accept it, and these pickled things outside the door will definitely invite the government to come to inquire, and then you can report it according to the truth!"
After Lan Xuan threw some silver coins to the shopkeeper, he put away the Phoenix Blood Treasure Qin and tied it to his back, and went out to walk away, his back quickly disappeared into the distance.
Three or four miles away from the village and town, Ji Xiaofan and the others were turning around and looking in the direction of the town, and the sound of the killing piano came from afar, and everyone was surging to check the situation in the rear.
"Elder, what's going on over there in the restaurant?" Ouyang Lanhui walked up to Elder Qi and asked.
Elder Qi shook his head and sighed: "There are so many greedy people in the world, but her Phoenix Blood Treasure Qin is indeed a rare spiritual treasure, I am afraid it is still a spiritual treasure that can be upgraded in grade, and it is inevitable that it will be coveted, however, this Lan Xuan is not a simple woman, her cultivation fluctuates and fluctuates obscurely, even the old man has not investigated clearly, it is estimated that there should be a spiritual treasure to cover his true cultivation, and now the dozen or so people who snatched it have not left a single living mouth, this woman's methods are bloody enough!"
"Ah, no wonder I saw that her hands were delicate and slender when she played the piano, not at all like a man's palm, it turned out to be a woman!" Ouyang Lanhui blinked with big eyes and nodded, "Such a character, I don't know what kind of appearance it will be?"
"It has nothing to do with us at this time, don't bother with it, let's continue on our way!" Elder Qi waved his hand and motioned for everyone to continue on their way.
Liangzhou has many high mountains and hills, rugged mountain roads, sparse dwellings, rivers and lakes are even more scarce, the people cultivate less fields, the annual output is meager, and the people's livelihood is difficult.
"Elder Qi, Uncle Jin, we have already walked more than two hundred miles away from the sect, why is there such a scene outside, I didn't expect this Daliangzhou to be so miserable, how can this common people live so poor?" Ouyang Lanhui asked with a look of surprise.
"The land of Kyushu was originally rich, but in the past few hundred years, it has encountered several natural disasters, and experienced several wars, and the government is dark, official corruption, bandits are rampant, and at the same time, the sects are also fighting with each other, natural disasters and man-made disasters are parallel, this Kyushu has not been recuperated, and now only the major sects and families can be regarded as a peaceful holy land, Lan Hui girl, this is the first time you have gone down the mountain, and you are not used to the scene you see, and you will get used to it after a long time!"
Elder Qi sighed, shook his head and said to Ouyang Lanhui.
"Senior Sister Ouyang, we and other cultivators are pursuing the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, in order to be able to dominate the world and dominate Kyushu, and mundane affairs are not in the eyes of the law, why bother with those ordinary people, Senior Brother, I have just broken through the realm and have a little experience, let me tell you?" Qi Chang deliberately approached Ouyang Lanhui and took over the topic with a smile.
"Hmph, the sect master and the elders have said, we cultivate the Tao and cultivate the mind, we can't just practice the exercises, but also experience the state of mind, understand the world, and understand the human feelings, so that the state of mind can be pure, we were originally ordinary people, but we live in seclusion in the secret realm, and now our realm is low, and we can't jump out of the mundane, this time we go down the mountain to practice the state of mind, Senior Brother Qi, am I right?"
Elder Qi and Lord Jin Feng walked in front, although they did not speak, they had actually been paying attention to the words and deeds of the disciples, and when they heard Ouyang Lanhui's words, they couldn't help but nodded, and Lord Jin Feng whispered to Elder Qi: "Although Lan Hui's girl is a little more delicate, her talent and understanding are not bad, Ouyang Tai has given birth to a good daughter!"
"Hahaha, Lan Hui girl does have a good understanding, there should be a lot of gains from this downhill experience, but Qi Chang seems to have encountered a mood barrier at this time, young man, the situation is sad, I'm afraid it's a catastrophe, this time you and I pay more attention to mention one or two, I hope he can see through it in time this time, don't enter the magic barrier!"
