Chapter 11: The unlucky Ruan Tianxing
The next night, the moon was like water, and it was a good day. Si Yi went out again, but this time he didn't go to Liu's Mansion, but to the city guard camp in the east of the city.
During the day, Si Yi went to worship Grandpa Ma, and in front of Grandpa Ma's tomb, he finally figured it out.
If Liu Fu was under martial law because Si Yi stole Liu Chuang's treasure last time, then the strict defense of the city guards is a daily routine.
It took a lot of effort for Si Yi to successfully sneak into the camp from an inconspicuous corner, but after entering the camp, Si Yi was dumbfounded again, the camp was densely packed with tents, and there were teams patrolling back and forth, and the time between them was very short, which added difficulty to Si Yi's exploration.
Looking at the dense patrol soldiers in front, Si Yi covered his face and said, "Why should I listen to you and help Liu Chuang? ”
Ghost Hand smiled: "It's difficult to show your skills." ”
"Phew. ”
However, Si Yi's actions were not slow at all. Finding the gap between the soldiers' patrols, the latent step was launched, using the shadow of a camp tent, successfully entered this camp tent group, and looked at the surrounding camp tents, Si Yi did not go to investigate at all, but walked directly inside. The army was highly disciplined, and Nguyen Tien Hang was a captain of the city guards, and it was impossible for him to live in the same tent as ordinary soldiers.
As he walked, Si Yi finally found a different tent, which occupied a larger area and had a slightly different color than the ordinary tent.
Bypassing the patrol team, Si Yi secretly opened a corner of the tent.
Inside, a middle-aged man was looking at something. Looking at the surrounding furnishings, Si Yi finally determined that this style of camp tent should be used by the captain. Remembering the characteristics of this kind of tent, Si Yi continued to feel inside.
During this period, he found three more such tents, one of which was in a tent, where a captain was doing things with a charming woman, Si Yi was still a half-old child after all, and he was red-faced when he saw this scene, and his breathing technique was almost broken. Fortunately, the ghost hand hurriedly reminded him, and Si Yi quickly slipped away without revealing his feet. But despite this, Si Yi's breath was still a little unstable. Reluctantly found a hidden place, Si Yi calmed down for a while before forgetting the picture he had just seen, and his breath stabilized.
Ghost Hand sneered, "It's not promising. ”
Si Yi's face turned red, but he still argued: "How did I know that they were so bold to do such a thing in the camp tent." And I'm still a man with strong blood, isn't it normal to have this kind of reaction?"
Ghost Hand didn't speak, just smiled. Si Yi's face turned even redder, and remembering the picture just now, Si Yi couldn't help but squirm: "Scum." Then he continued to look for Ruan Tianxing's tent.
The hard work paid off, and when the sky was about to dawn, Si Yi finally found Ruan Tianxing's camp, briefly recorded the location of the camp, and left quickly.
Back in the small courtyard, Si Yi hurriedly took out a spirit stone and began to recover his spiritual power, tonight, he has been using the latent shadow step, and the spiritual power in his body has almost been exhausted.
During the day, Si Yi used it to study the "Thief Cultivation Manual" that the ghost hand recommended him to buy. I have to say that the vision of the ghost hand is really good, and he can always find Si Yi's shortcomings, and this book is simply tailored for Si Yi. As soon as he opened the book, Si Yi was immersed in it.
Seeing Si Yi's state, the ghost hand felt very satisfied.
It wasn't until the sun was about to set that Si Yi put away the book and went to bed, because he had to go to the city guard camp at night, which was the Longtan Tiger's Den, so Si Yi had to ensure that he was full of energy, which was written in the "Thief's Cultivation Manual", as a thief, before every shot, he had to adjust his state to the best, so as to avoid making fewer mistakes.
Different from last night's panic, today Si Yi already knew the location of Ruan Tianxing's camp, so he walked quickly, and in order to avoid being embarrassed again, he also deliberately avoided the camp last night.
Touching Ruan Tianxing's tent again, Si Yi cautiously opened a corner of the tent, inside, Ruan Tianxing was dealing with military affairs, his expression was extremely serious, and he looked like a superior person. It's just that he looks feminine and looks a little strange.
Si Yi watched quietly like this. It was impossible to touch it directly, he could only wait for Ruan Tianxing to tell the location of the mother talisman himself, or find an opportunity to go in and find it when Ruan Tianxing went out.
But after waiting for two hours, Ruan Tianxing has been handling military affairs in his seat, without saying a word or moving his position at all. Si Yi couldn't help but jokingly say, "Why don't I go to the army's treasure house first." ”
The ghost hand swore that if he could show his body now, he would definitely give Si Yi a big white eye. "You're floating, this kind of place is guarded by formations, although they are all very rudimentary formations, but it's easy to find you, you'd better put away this idea of looking for death. ”
Si Yi touched his head a little embarrassed, to be honest, he really had this idea just now.
At this time, Ruan Tianxing in the camp finally made a move. As if he was too tired to deal with official business, he leaned back in his chair, stretched, and then took a small object from his bosom and played with it. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
Ghost Hand smiled: "Your luck is really invincible, do you see what he has in his hand? That's what you're looking for." ”
Looking at Ruan Tianxing's movements, Si Yi couldn't help but complain: "If that's the case, I might as well not find out? He keeps this thing on his body all day, how can I take it?"
"No matter how powerful the tiger is, there are times when it dozes off, wait carefully, and the opportunity will always appear. Ghost Hand patiently comforted.
"Let's hope soon. ”
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration moved in Si Yi's mind and asked, "Is there any drug or anything in the system mall?"
"Yes. Ghost Hand replied truthfully. "But the cheapest one also costs 30 points, and you only have 31 points left, are you sure you want to change?"
"Change," Si Yi said decisively: "Use 30 points to exchange for a loyal subordinate, this business, I think it's very profitable." ”
"Very well, as you wish. ”
After the ghost hand finished speaking, there was an extra jade bottle in Si Yi's hand, and the ghost hand said: "This is the magic powder, it is the cheapest drug in the system, correspondingly, its effect is not particularly significant, even if you use this bottle, it is estimated that it can only make him quiet for two hours, so you have to find the right time to start, there is only one chance." ”
"Damn. You don't say it sooner. ”
"You didn't ask?"
Looking at the confusion in his hand, Si Yi looked disgusted, such a big bottle, it was even more difficult for Ruan Tianxing to drink it like water.
"I regret it. ”
The ghost hand said solemnly: "I'm sorry, except for the spirit stone, all the things sold in this mall are not allowed to be returned." ”
"Alas. Si Yi looked at the bottle in his hand and became more and more angry, and finally simply stuffed it into his arms, out of sight and out of mind.
After resting for a while, Ruan Tianxing carefully put away the mother talisman and continued to deal with official business.
After observing for a while, Si Yi turned around and left, the thing had been found, and the next task was to find a way to get it.
Back in the small courtyard, Si Yi ate something, then took out the spirit stone to continue cultivating, today, he was going to break through to the fourth level of body refining.
In the morning, the sun was shining, Si Yi opened his eyes suddenly, and the spirit stones in his hands also turned into gray-white powder and scattered all over the ground. Spit out a mouthful of turbid air, Si Yi said happily: "The refining body is fourfold." ”
Bringing up the panel, the information on it has also changed.
Host: Si Yi
Cultivation is: Refining the body fourfold
Exercise: Divine product "Stealing Nerves"
Martial arts: Latent Walk, Breath Gathering Technique
Credits: 1
Comprehensive Evaluation: Waste Grade
Looking at the information on the panel, Si Yi analyzed: "Ghost Hand senior, I think I should learn some offensive martial arts, my frontal combat effectiveness is so low now." ”
"Earn points. Ghost Hand said casually.
This sentence directly hit Si Yi's soft underbelly, and he only has 1 point now. And the cheapest Huang Pin inferior martial arts in the system also cost hundreds of points, which is not something he can afford at all. In the end, Si Yi could only say in frustration: "Sleep." Then he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
In the evening, Si Yi went to the camp of the city guards as usual, found the place from yesterday and began to spy on Ruan Tianxing.
But it seems that his work is the same every day, just sitting in his chair to deal with military affairs, and when he is tired, he takes out the mother talisman and plays with it for a while, rests and continues to deal with military affairs.
Outside the door, Si Yi yawned, already a little impatient.
Suddenly, Si Yi heard footsteps from behind, and saw a sergeant walking over with a bowl of medicinal soup, looking at the direction, the direction he was going to was Ruan Tianxing's camp.
Si Yi's eyes lit up, the opportunity he was looking for was coming, didn't this come?
Seeing the sergeant getting closer and closer, Si Yi used his breathing technique with all his strength to ensure that his breath did not leak out at all, and at the same time hid his figure very deep to avoid being discovered.
It seemed that the sergeant's entire attention was focused on the medicinal soup in his hand, not paying any attention to his surroundings. This made Si Yi breathe a sigh of relief.
Lifting the tent, the sergeant said respectfully: "General, your medicinal soup for today is ready." ”
"Hmm. Ruan Tianxing raised his head and said, "Take it." ”
The sergeant cautiously presented the medicinal soup in his hand to Ruan Tianxing, and then respectfully stepped aside.
"Was there anything unusual when you decocted the medicine today?"
The sergeant immediately replied, "Report to the general, there is nothing unusual. ”
Ruan Tianxing looked at the medicinal soup carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he slowly drank it one bite at a time.
"Be careful. Si Yi said: "It seems that it is impossible to start halfway, so we can only start from the source." ”
"There is one last medicine in three days, so you must be very careful at that time, and at the last moment, don't go wrong. Ruan Tianxing handed over the finished medicine bowl to the sergeant and asked.
The sergeant carefully took the medicine bowl and said respectfully, "Yes, captain." ”
Seeing the sergeant withdraw from the camp, Si Yi hurriedly got up and followed.
I followed him all the way to a small kitchen, where the sergeant put the medicine bowl away before closing the door and leaving.
Looking at the surroundings, Si Yi had already memorized the location of this small kitchen, and then smiled and retreated.
Three days later, in the evening, Si Yi set off early, skillfully sneaked into the city guard camp, Si Yi walked towards the location of the small kitchen, because it was dinner time, most of the soldiers were busy eating, and the patrolling was also absent-minded, Si Yi simply slipped directly into the small kitchen, hid himself in a corner that was not easy to be discovered, and quietly waited for the sergeant to come over to boil medicine.
An hour later, the sergeant from three days ago walked in with a large package on his back. Judging from the sergeant's sweaty appearance, the contents of this package are probably not light. The sergeant carefully put the package on the ground, and then couldn't help muttering, "Really, what kind of aphrodisiac does a dead eunuch have to take? ”
Si Yi, who was hiding in the shadows, grew his eyes in surprise and almost laughed.
The sergeant opened the package, and inside it turned out to be a small Dan furnace, no wonder the sergeant had so much trouble carrying it. The sergeant set up the furnace, lit a fire to preheat it, and then took out the same elixir from the package and placed it on the ground.
"What are these?" Si Yi asked, he had never been in contact with the elixir, so he didn't recognize any of them.
"From left to right, in order, there are Suoyang Flowers, Lingyuan Grass, and Yan Demon Tiger Whip..." The ghost hand said the same, and finally concluded: "There are several things that are of great value, and this little guy is really willing to pay for it." ”
"Then is this medicine really as the sergeant said, is it that Ruan Tianxing wants to use to restore his body?"
Ghost Hand smiled: "Of course not, he must not be telling the truth, this medicine is indeed used for aphrodisiac, but Lingyuan grass and Wen Yuanguo are added to it, both of which are used for warming and supplementing, although it is a two-flavor small medicine, but it has changed the effect of this medicine, if I am not mistaken, it should be that Ruan Tianxing has cultivated some kind of yin and cold exercises, which causes the yin qi in the body to be too heavy, so it is necessary to neutralize the yin and cold qi in the body through this medicine." ”
"Oh. ”
Seeing that the sergeant had already begun to decoct the medicine, Si Yi quietly waited for the opportunity.
An hour later, the medicinal soup in the Dan furnace had shrunk by half, and the sergeant's head was also covered with sweat, although the medicinal soup was made with spiritual wood, and he didn't need to inject spiritual energy himself, but he needed to control the fire, so after an hour, he was already tired. Seeing that the medicinal soup had been formed, the sergeant breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly rushed outside, not forgetting to shout: "Ah, suffocate me." ”
"Opportunity. Seeing the sergeant running out, Si Yi hurriedly appeared, poured a bottle of Misty Powder into it, and saw that there was no obvious change in the medicinal soup in the pot, so he returned to his position and continued to hide.
Soon, the sergeant just now ran back and was relieved to see that there was nothing suspicious in the room. Seeing that there was only one bowl of medicinal soup left in the Dan furnace, the sergeant stretched and smiled with relief. After pouring out the medicinal soup, the sergeant hurriedly walked towards Ruan Tianxing's tent. Si Yi in the shadows also showed a relieved smile and cautiously followed behind the sergeant.
In Ruan Tianxing's tent, estimating that the time was almost up, Ruan Tianxing raised his head, played with the puppet talisman, and waited for the arrival of the sergeant who delivered the medicine.
"General, your medicine is cured. ”
Hearing the sergeant's voice, Ruan Tianxing stood up excitedly, stepped forward, carefully took the medicine bowl, and asked, "Is there anything abnormal today?"
"No, as usual. ”
Ruan Tianxing nodded and said, "Okay, you go down." ”
"Yes, General. The sergeant agreed, and respectfully withdrew.
Looking at the medicinal soup in his hand, Ruan Tianxing couldn't help laughing: "After drinking this last bowl of medicine, the cold qi in my body will be calmed down, if nothing else, within three days, I will definitely be able to break through to the eighth level of body refining, and when the time comes, I will see who can compete with me for the position of captain." As he spoke, he drank all the medicine in the bowl and turned into it.
"How long will it take for this medicine to take effect?" asked Si Yi.
"A stick of incense or so. ”
Si Yi said with his fists rubbed: "Then I'll wait for him to have a stick of incense." ”
Time passed quickly, and it was estimated that the time had exceeded a stick of incense, Si Yi looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, he opened a corner of the tent and slipped in.
Coming to the back, Si Yi cautiously poked his head out to take a look, the drug had really worked, Ruan Tianxing fell softly on the bed, already unconscious.
"Haha. Si Yi approached him with a smile, and then blatantly took out the mother talisman from Ruan Tianxing's arms, and turned around to leave.
At this time, the ghost hand reminded in a loud voice: "You use spiritual power to stimulate his left shoulder and left leg." ”
"Why?"
"Because this is where the yin qi in his body gathers, and it is extremely unstable, as long as you stimulate it a little, the aura in his body will riot, and there will be no more existence in this life. Ghost Hand explained, "I wanted you to kill him directly, but I'm sure you won't do that, so I'll have to settle for the next best thing." ”
"Of course I won't kill him, killing him is Liu Chuang's business. Si Yi simply stimulated Ruan Tianxing's left shoulder, and sure enough, as the ghost hand said, the aura in Ruan Tianxing's body began to be uncontrollable and rampage through his body.
The aura riot was very painful, and I believed that Ruan Tianxing would wake up soon, so Si Yi simply searched the room and left quickly.
"Ahh
Soon after Si Yi left, Ruan Tianxing woke up screaming, at this time, his face was pale, cold sweat was dripping down, and sweat stains quickly imprinted a human figure under him.
"Someone, someone. Ruan Tianxing roared hoarsely, the situation in his body was out of control, and if he couldn't find a strong person to help him suppress it now, I was afraid that his life would be in danger.
The soldiers patrolling outside heard Ruan Tianxing's shouts and hurriedly rushed into the camp.
"Go and call the captain and save me. After barely saying this, Ruan Tianxing fainted. The patrolling soldiers exchanged glances, leaving two people to take care of Captain Ruan, and the others hurriedly ran towards the most central military tent to inform the captain.
At this time, Si Yi was already walking on the streets of Qingyun City with the mother talisman of the puppet talisman, thinking about how to blackmail Liu Chuang for a while.
