Subduing Li Xiaojiang, He Miaomiao did not make a decision on a whim.

Now that she has offended Wei Changfeng, she still has He Yanxin, a big killer hanging on her head, and she is like a frightened bird in the Lingnan Mountains, and she doesn't dare to inquire about many things on her own.

Li Xiaojiang is clever and quick-witted, and he has a deep mind, and he swears a demon oath, which is a rare good helper.

Once there is a stir in Huaquan City, she can leave at any time, leaving Li Xiaojiang to find out the news, maybe she can still be of great use.

She pondered the demon oath in her heart over and over again, and when she saw that there was no flaw, she let him read it.

Li Xiaojiang was so angry that he stared at him, but his life was pinched in the hands of others, so he could only make an oath without love, and He Miaomiao was satisfied to take back the evil qi in his body.

He only felt relieved, after all, there was always a chance to save a life.

His thoughts are probably the same as those of all monks, as long as he lives, it is better than anything else!

Maybe one day He Miaomiao will be killed, and the demon oath will no longer exist! But if he refuses stubbornly, he will die in vain.

He Miaomiao also took advantage of this, coupled with the intimidation as an "evil cultivator", it was strange that it didn't happen.

Both of them had something in their hearts, and on the way back to the city, they were speechless, and returned to Miao Dan Pavilion in silence.

They collected more than forty Qinglu grasses, plus more than 20 plants that Zhao Er and Chen San picked up somewhere, which was enough for them to refine for more than a month.

Steward Liu saw that these two people looked strange, and they returned after only one day, and there were two big living people missing, so she had a guess in her heart, and she didn't plan to take the initiative to ask.

Li Xiaojiang saw that He Miaomiao looked meaningful, so he had no choice but to speak hard.

"Steward Liu... Zhao Er and Chen San didn't know what was crazy, they killed us in the forest, and He Daoyou and I had no choice but to fight back..."

As he spoke, he handed over the storage bags of the two people, of course, all the useful things in them were swallowed by He Miaomiao, and the rest were all worthless things.

"Hmm..."After Steward Liu took it, he was neither angry nor disappointed, as if he hadn't heard about it at all, "You guys go and rest, tomorrow He Miaomiao will continue to refine the Qinglu Grass, and Li Xiaojiang will no longer have to do chores in the lobby and go all out to refine the Blood Condensation Grass." ”

"Yes!"

The two agreed in unison, their faces calm, but they showed just the right amount of relaxation.

Seeing this, Steward Liu sighed helplessly, and said in his heart that he was going to waste time looking for an apprentice again, and seeing that the two had not dispersed, he was also a little upset. "What are you doing here, should you go home, you should go home, you should go into the backyard, you should go into the backyard!"

He Miaomiao turned around and left the lobby, Li Xiaojiang also stepped out of the store without saying a word, Steward Liu always felt that their atmosphere was a little delicate, and he thought of accepting disciples, but he felt relieved.

"Alas... I don't know if this move is good or bad..."Since half a year ago, Xu Qiuyang said that he would accept a mantle heir, and the apprentices of Miaodan Pavilion have become fewer and fewer day by day, either dying outside or running away.

She didn't know that Zhao Er and Chen San were to blame, but she could only control the affairs of the store, and she couldn't care about everything the apprentice did outside.

What's more, the alchemists didn't dislike their bad morals, so what did she care about.

Steward Liu sighed secretly, while taking out the notice that had been used for many years, and posted it in a conspicuous place outside the door with his spiritual power, looking forward to someone coming to the door tomorrow.

......

Li Xiaojiang walked in the sunset, and his surroundings were sometimes quiet and sometimes chaotic, but they couldn't affect him for half a minute.

He knew every nook and cranny of Fountain City, and he knew everyone who provoked foreign monks. On weekdays, he would greet them with a smile and make small talk.

Those people saw that he was clever and could speak, and the Li family was also famous for being poor in the dark alleys, so they had never attacked him, a little monk at the tenth level of qi refining.

But today, he doesn't have any close thoughts.

Li Xiaojiang was upset, about the demon oath in his heart, about He Miaomiao, he felt that he had suffered a big loss.

He has been begging for a living in the market since he was a child, living in the most chaotic dark alleys in Huaquan City, and he has long practiced the ability to see people and talk about people, and talk nonsense when he sees ghosts.

He is good at discovering the shortcomings and weaknesses of monks, and is good at analyzing what they want, and finally grasping and using them to achieve their own goals.

At first, he thought that He Miaomiao had entered the Miao Dan Pavilion to accept apprentices from Xu Qiuyang, but when he saw that she seemed to be unconscious, he realized that she was really just here to be an apprentice.

This made him aware of the possibilities.

Senior Xu has been accepting apprentices for half a year, and he is definitely not far from the official selection. As long as He Miaomiao, who doesn't know anything, is pulled into his own group, kills Zhao Er and Chen San, and then solves her by the way, he will become the final victor.

Half a year ago, as soon as he got the letter, he immediately entered the Miao Dan Pavilion, even if he knew that Zhao Er and Chen San were not good at getting along, he wanted to fight hard to resist all the plots.

I thought that finding He Miaomiao's helper would be a sure win, but I didn't expect her to be on guard.

What surprised him even more was that He Miaomiao turned out to be an evil cultivator!

The rumors about evil cultivation in Lingnan often made him shudder. Don't talk too far, just talk about the nearest He Yanxin, which is to suck the essence and blood of living people to strengthen himself.

It is said that all those monks are like dried corpses, all of them die without blinking their eyes, and not a single tragic word can describe the fear of being drained alive!

It was because he was already afraid when he felt the trace of pure evil qi in his body.

Li Xiaojiang hung his head, his steps heavy and slow, and returned to his dilapidated home.

He stood at the door and took a deep breath, squeezing out a smile that was no different from his usual before pushing open the creaking wooden door and shouting loudly to an old man on the fifth floor of qi refining in the courtyard:

"Grandfather, I'm back! Today we went out to pick spiritual plants, and when we went back to the store, the steward praised me!"

The old man's face was full of deep lines, his beard was white, his eyes were cloudy and dull, and he turned his head slowly when he heard Li Xiaojiang's shout.

"Oh... yes, yes. Dahe, let Xiaojiang also go with you to experience the experience. ”

Li Xiaojiang sighed helplessly, this situation is happening more and more frequently, and recently he can already feel the vitality of the old man's body gradually dissipating...

"Grandfather... I'm Xiao Jiang, didn't my dad go far away, you forgot again. ”

"Alas... What about your mother? Your mother is also out?" the old man pulled Li Xiaojiang's sleeve and asked him to sit next to him, touching his head while asking about the things that had been repeated a hundred times.

Li Xiaojiang was not impatient in the slightest, and explained softly. "My mother also chased after him, and I guess I will be back soon, so you have to take care of yourself and wait for them to come back and enjoy the blessings." ”

"Well... The old man closed his eyes, and a few words made him feel so tired that he couldn't say more.

Li Xiaojiang leaned beside the old man, thinking of his father who went out to practice a few years ago and had no news, and thought of his mother who went out to look for someone a year ago, but also did not return...

They've all fallen... Li Xiaojiang already knew it in his heart.

Looking at the old man whose situation is getting worse and worse, he suddenly feels unspeakably lonely, and his only relative may be about to leave...
