Chapter 21: Windfall
This kind of powerlessness of "people are swords, I am fish and meat", Xiang Qi felt it for the first time in his life, looking at the rapidly falling stones, Xiang Qi, who was already cold in his heart, silently recited "My life is over", and simply closed his eyes to welcome the arrival of death.

After the muffled sound of a stone hitting his head, Xiang Qi lost all his perception of the world.
......
I don't know how long it took, in the inexplicable cave where Xiang Qi fainted, there were two corpses, they were not far apart, lying opposite each other, one of the corpses was wide and fat, with a bulging belly, it was Senior Brother Hong, and the other was naturally Xiang Qi.
I saw Xiang Qi pillow with a pool of blood that had already coagulated, and his head also had a blood scab the size of an egg yolk. However, what was surprising was that the climbing rope that bound him was coiled several times at the moment, lying quietly on his side. And that blood-soaked Senior Brother Hong, there was an obvious crack between his head and his corpse - he was actually cut off by someone!
At this time, I saw one of Xiang Qi's fingers move slightly, he shook his head a few times from side to side, his eyes moved slightly, and he opened his eyes.
Xiang Qi, who had just opened his eyes, was stunned by the scene in front of him, looking at Senior Brother Hong who was in a different place, he couldn't help but exclaim "Ah", and his brain was also running at high speed: "It was Senior Brother Hong who died, I didn't even die! Who killed Senior Brother Hong? Who rescued me? Why did he do this?"
On the premise that there are no clues, even if Xiang Qi wants to break his mind, he will not get the answers to these questions. These confusions only disappeared after a moment in his mind, and the fear in his heart for the rest of his life had not subsided, so he was not in the mood to think about these questions.
Xiang Qi picked up the climbing rope on his side, the first spiritual weapon in his life. He knew in his heart that these spiritual artifacts with specific functions would be of great help to his future cultivation career. Naturally, he unceremoniously put it away.
Next, Xiang Qi searched on Senior Brother Hong's corpse, and took a bottle of ordinary healing pills, more than a dozen spirit stones, and a bamboo slip with a blackened surface into his arms.
It was a pity that Xiang Qi had not found pills such as Qi Condensing Pills that would help speed up his cultivation and break through bottlenecks.
Xiang Qi didn't take a second look at this bamboo slip, but put it away together with the elixir spirit stones. Although Senior Brother Hong is dead, he doesn't have the courage to stay here any longer.
Now, his mind was full of thoughts of escaping here and returning to the cave. As for the cave beside Senior Brother Hong, he didn't have the slightest idea of going down to explore.
Next, after Xiang Qi threw Senior Brother Hong's head and headless body into the cave one after another, he got up and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
When he came out of the cave, a cool breeze hit, Xiang Qi's whole body suddenly became excited, and his mind, which had been dizzy and noisy, was much clearer, he found several rattans, knotted them into a long enough rope, fixed one end on the mountain pine, and threw the other end into the cliff......
Half an hour later, the confused Xiang Qi finally returned to the cave.
After his breathing eased and his mood calmed down, Xiang Qicai recalled what happened today.
At the beginning, Senior Brother Hong didn't have any good intentions, and he didn't know what his purpose was, he invited himself to a secret cave in the back mountain, and after helping him move the boulder, the drama of "flying birds hiding with good bows" was also staged - killing himself and killing his mouth; although he also expected this, but his skills were not as good as others, he was tied up with a climbing rope, and his head was also injured by him, but a mysterious person who suddenly appeared stopped Senior Brother Hong's conspiracy to kill people and kill his mouth, and he was saved, and Senior Brother Hong died unexpectedly.
Senior Brother Hong kills himself to extinguish his mouth, which is very understandable, since ancient times, people have a sinister heart, have a strong sense of self, and selfishness is the normal state of bad people.
And that stranger used extremely cruel means to kill Senior Brother Hong, from this point of analysis, there should be an unknown great hatred between him and Senior Brother Hong. And judging from the fact that he left his own life, he is not a vicious person who kills innocents indiscriminately, who is this person?
In addition, Senior Brother Hong went to the back mountain, not simply to hunt for treasure, and I don't know what he was hiding.
Thinking of this, Xiang Qi couldn't help but feel a cool air on his back, and he was afraid. It seems that in the future, when you encounter something similar to being invited, you must think carefully and make a careful decision, and don't fall into the way of bad people again!
A large part of the reason why he will happily go is the bottle of Qi Condensing Pill promised by Senior Brother Hong, it seems that the sentence "people die for wealth and birds die for food" is very reasonable, if you want to cultivate for a long time in this deceitful immortal cultivation world and live longer, you must control your greed.
Thinking of Xiang Qi here, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his mood improved a lot.
However, there was another thing that bothered him, that is, although Senior Brother Hong was not killed by himself, after all, he witnessed this incident, if he was asked about it, how should he deal with it?
There is no impermeable wall in the world, this matter cannot be hidden forever, and one day this matter will be revealed, he must think of a perfect excuse to dissociate himself from this matter.
After closing his eyes and pondering the time of tea, Xiang Qi suddenly opened his eyes, reached out to his arms, and a black bamboo slip appeared in his hand, which was the bamboo slip he had obtained from Senior Brother Hong before.
This piece of bamboo is not large, the size of a palm, and it should have existed for some years from the degree of blackening on the surface.
Xiang Qi lifted the bamboo slip slightly, and thousands of small characters came into his eyes. He also read books for a few years when he was a child, and he still has the ability to read and hyphenate words.
After about a quarter of an hour, Xiang Qi finally read through the obscure text. This is a remnant of an alchemy book called "Dan Dao Evaluation".
The book gives the refining materials and refining methods of more than a dozen kinds of pills, as well as some precautions for alchemy. Among these more than a dozen kinds of pills, the Qi Condensing Pill that Xiang Qi urgently needed for cultivation at this stage was impressively listed. As for the refining methods of the other hundreds of pills listed by the author, there is no record on this bamboo slip.
Seeing Xiang Qi here, he couldn't hide the excitement on his face, if he could refine the pill, wouldn't it play a role in doubling the result with half the effort in his future cultivation? Thinking of this, Xiang Qi's heart felt a frenzy for alchemy, and he became ready to move.
At the same time, Xiang Qi also sighed with regret for only getting the remnants of the Dan Dao evaluation, although there are only one or two pills he uses now, but in the long run, he still wants to get the whole Dan Dao evaluation, everyone has an insatiable nature, and who dislikes things to tie their hands?
Xiang Qi read through the Dan Dao evaluation from beginning to end, and also had a preliminary understanding of this alchemy, alchemy is divided into two types: inner Dan and outer Dan, the alchemy method with the human body as the Dan furnace is the inner Danshu, and the alchemy method with the Ding furnace as the Dan furnace is the outer Danshu. The refining methods of these dozen kinds of pills given by the Dan Dao evaluation are all Wai Dan techniques.
