Chapter 1 Murder and Goods
Modern city, in an old-fashioned apartment. Zhou Qing held a short sword with a long ruler, two fingers wide, crystal yellow all over, and a few black spots on it. "Last month, I finally cultivated to the realm of "Introducing Qi into the Body", it is not easy, I can drive the flying sword, but this flying sword is too difficult to get! The best red copper is about 500 catties, the red hair steel is 300 catties, gold, silver, and jade shavings have used me hundreds of thousands, and the result is a handful, and the quality is too impure. "Zhou Qing is a cultivator, and he studied under the "Practicing Instrument Sect", which as the name suggests, is mainly based on practicing magic weapons. In the monastic world, it is a very small sect, so small that other monastic sects do not even know that there is such a sect. Zhou Qing is also lucky, he just entered the university, and he is enthusiastic and dedicated to doing good deeds and learning from Lei Feng. After saving a beggar on the side of the road with a bottle of mineral water, he became the successor of the "Lianqi Sect". was accepted as an apprentice by the beggar who claimed to be from Lingyun Dao, and knowing that he had studied cultivation with Lingyun for a month, Lingyun threw down a copy of the "General Outline of Exercises" and hung up. It turned out that a disciple of Lingyun and the Shushan Sword Sect in Changbai Mountain had a dispute over a piece of Huang Yunjing, but was seriously injured by several disciples, and was rescued by Zhou Qing and thought he was dying. In this way, Zhou Qing justifiably became the sect master of the "Instrument Cultivation Sect". Although he is a bare-bones commander.
I thought that I had an adventure like the protagonist in countless YY novels, and from then on, I was the only one in heaven and earth, and I still had to be a man with my tail between my legs.
The night was as cool as water, and a bright moon hung high in the sky, emitting a pale green and soft light. But it was midnight. On the balcony, Zhou Qing took out a few pieces of crystal jade. I pinched a few tricks and arranged a small hidden array to prevent the breath from leaking out during cultivation. Since he began to cultivate, Zhou Qing has made up his mind that his strength is not strong, and he will not expose himself. Lest you be like that old ghost in Lingyun
Zhou Qing sat cross-legged in the middle of the formation, his heart was facing the sky, and a stream of moonlight shone on his head, and then disappeared. A trace of cool breath flowed along the meridians to the dantian, and Zhou Qing was immersed in this watery moonlight, using the aura of the moon to temper the body, expand the meridians, and increase his true power.
"Introducing Qi into the Body", a person who cultivates the Tao first cultivates his own true qi, ordinary people practice qi, cultivate for five years to have a sense of qi, and ten years through the body of a hundred remains. However, it takes decades of hard work to attract the aura of heaven and earth into the body and refine the physical body.
Zhou Qing is also a genius, in just five years, with the second-rate exercises of the "Cultivation Instrument Sect" in the cultivation world, he has broken through the hundred veins around his body and reached the realm of inducing qi into the body. The exercises of this Qi Cultivator Sect are second-rate, but the formation is first-class, and the training equipment is based on the formation. However, the methods, formations, pills, talismans, and sword practices recorded in the "General Outline of Practicing Instruments" are extremely clever methods of practicing magic weapons, but it is difficult for the skillful daughter-in-law to cook without rice, and the steel, iron, and copper used to practice a slightly better flying sword are only afraid to be counted in tons.
Zhou Qing can't, after graduating from college, with his knowledge of practicing weapons, he started a business like antique jade, one is to make money, these days, without money, he can't do anything. Second, let's see if you can find a few treasures handed down by the ancestors in the antique pile, you must know that the strength of each generation of the Lianqi Sect is pitifully weak, but the kung fu of appreciating the treasure is not something that other sects can catch up
After a few years of hard work, Zhou Qing is also worth millions, although he is not a rich man in modern times, he has no worries about food and clothing. But to practice a good magic weapon, in addition to the genius treasure, jade is a good material for storing true yuan and carving formations, and I am afraid that it will cost more than tens of millions of good jade soon. In the past few years, Zhou Qing has only collected a few small pieces of Lantian jade, and he can arrange a few less powerful arrays
Waking up from the meditation, Zhou Qing felt that the true yuan was a little thicker again, "Well, the way of heaven is long, there is no hurry or dryness, one day it will become a great road!" Ten fingers were entangled, "Hurry!" The flying sword rushed out from the heavenly spirit above his head and turned into a yellow light, circling around his body. "The material is not good, it can be practiced like this, the skill is not enough, if you can send out the three flavors of real fire to refine the impurities, you must be able to carry people!" Zhou Qing said secretly. Think of the white clouds fluttering, stepping on the flying sword to swim all over the famous mountains and rivers. Zhou Qing yearns for it.
"Hey! There is a trace of fluctuation in the vitality, someone is using a spell!" can attract the vitality of heaven and earth into the body, and naturally knows more about the vitality, although it is only a slight fluctuation, Zhou Qing still feels it.
In modern society, whether it is a cultivator, or a demon or a monster, they are all dissolved into the city, containing each other, and there are several larger sects that have their own industries in the world, after all, the current resources are not as good as in ancient times, ancient cultivators refining a flying sword can find iron ore by themselves, collect hardware Ying, jade and other raw materials. Modern minerals belong to the state, want, well, take money to buy them. There is really no money, and even the gods can't be deserved. And the best genius earth treasure has been scraped clean by the major sects for thousands of years. The price ratio of this thing is extremely low, and it is often an elixir that has been grown for thousands of years, and it can be eaten clean after a few bites of the cultivator. There are many monks and few porridges! If there is an occasional case, it is inevitable to fight for robbery, and Ling Yun died because of it.
After adjusting the cinnabar, he drew a hidden talisman on his chest to hide his breath, and a divine talisman was attached to his leg, and Zhou Qing quietly rushed towards the fluctuating location.
"Junior, it's too much to deceive people!" Python Jīng was furious, and was chased thousands of miles by the four generations of the two Shushan Sword Sect for a five-hundred-year-old ginseng. He was originally a white python in the deep mountains, absorbing rìyue jīng hua, practicing for more than 200 years, and finally shedding his body and turning into a human form. Found this formed ginseng in the Tianshan Mountains, just picked and prepared to take it, when he met two disciples of Wei Shu Mountain to snatch it, although the Dao Xing was more than twice as deep as them, but the other party's magic weapon flying sword was too powerful. A man and a woman are about twenty, the man makes a green sè flying sword, between the blue light, it is up to a few zhang long, and the same is true for the woman, but the sword light becomes a purple sè. The two rays of purple and blue light entwined and shattered the demonic qi.
"Innate elixir, how can it fall into the hands of evil demons!" "The girl has a slender figure, willow eyebrows, and a very fashionable outfit, and she is a beautiful girl in the city!
"Senior sister, what is it to talk to him, if you kill it, it can be regarded as killing demons. The young man's face was full of arrogance and said impatiently.
"Ha! Ha! What a decent person, even killing people and robbing treasures is high-sounding!" Python Jīng laughed angrily.
"Look for death!" the young man roared, "Two swords together!" shouted both men and women at the same time. Suddenly, the power of the two rays of purple and green light increased greatly, and they twisted towards the python. There was a piercing screech in the air, rippling as if space had been sliced. The python's face was unusually dignified, and with a strange sound, he spit out a round ball the size of an egg and a green sè from his mouth, which was the demon pill he had practiced hard!
Boom! The sword and the pill collided! The huge vitality burst out, and three figures flew upside down ten long distances, and the python's face was like white paper, and its lower body was originally two human legs, but now it turned into a huge white snake tail! Dao Xing retreated at least half! The python smiled bitterly! Looking at the unconscious girl over there, and the young man who was holding the ground with his sword and a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. The two defeats were afraid of injury, the tail wagged, and a demon wind python jīng set up a wind flying shield! The python jīng was not a kind person, he wanted to step forward to kill people, but he was afraid of the young man's dying counterattack, plus fighting in the city, although it was a suburb, he was afraid that he was not a cultivator, and after thinking about it a little, it was not worth it!
Seeing that the python was gone, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, put away the flying sword that was knocked down by the demon pill, and walked to the girl to check the injury, "Fortunately, I was just stunned, damn python jīng, it actually injured me and my junior sister, and when the injury is healed, invite a few more senior brothers, if you don't peel the skin of that beast, I Zhao Liang is not a human!" Zhao Liang turned his head with difficulty, and vaguely saw a black-clothed masked man, and then there was boundless darkness.
Originally, Zhou Qing's strength was far below Zhao Liang, but after Zhao Liang's fierce battle, he was injured a lot, and Zhou Qing deliberately hid his breath, and it was a sneak attack, and he succeeded in one fell swoop. quickly put away the two flying swords
Search, two wallets, a cheatbook, a few pieces of jade. It was searched in an instant, and the whole process didn't take a minute! Someone came! Two magic talismans hit his legs, and Zhou Qing successfully flashed.
Quickly used the formation to seal the aura of the two flying swords, Zhou Qing went around in a big circle, and went to the Internet café in the city for a while, but he believed that no one was following, and waited for the day to be bright, before he came out of the Internet café and returned home.
Killing people and grabbing treasures, you have to be careful when you do this kind of thing! Being known by the other party's master, it is estimated that he will be beaten to the bone! Returning to his residence, Zhou Qing was excited! The harvest is not small! After being excited, he calmed down. Zhou Qing began to think: he is now an ordinary person, he must not doubt himself, as for things, he is not in a hurry to move first, and he will talk about it when the limelight is over. Put away the talisman paper, cinnabar, that you usually practice.
In the next month, Zhou Qing didn't do anything, and he didn't practice anymore, he just ran the antique market every day and did business. Eat and sleep, and do what ordinary people do. Be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship, Zhou Qing thought to himself. Soon a month passed and nothing happened. In the second month, Zhou Qing practiced carefully at night, and practiced for a month, without incident. I was relieved.
Inside, Zhou Qing picked up a sword that was like autumn water, two feet long, and emitted blue light all over its body, and carefully examined it. "What a sword! The whole body is made of Taiyi gold, and even the hilt of the sword is a rosewood heart that is more than a hundred years old!" Zhou Qing sighed. You must know that this rosewood heart has a great restraint on ghosts and ghosts, and it is made of wooden swords and tokens, which are a few points better than peach wood that is more than a hundred years old. That's all, this Taiyi gold jīng is a rare thing, five hundred catties of fine steel, quenched with three flavors of true fire, it would be good to be able to refine one gram. Usually, as long as you add one or two to the practice of flying swords, the quality of the flying sword will be doubled. These two two-foot-long swords together are probably more than a dozen catties. How much steel does that take! Especially the three-flavor true fire can only be sent out by the master of "Practicing Qi and Transforming God".
Taoist Qi training is divided into four stages. "Introducing Qi into the Body", "Practicing Qi and Transforming God", "Practicing God and Returning to Void", "Practicing Void and Combining Dao". In the end, the Da Luo Jin Immortal is achieved, which is not bad for all calamities and is eternal and immortal.
The difference between each stage is huge, the cultivator of "Inducing Qi into the Body", refining the body with the vitality of heaven and earth, the body is as green as a swallow, and the stele is cracked and the stone is opened. In the later stage of cultivation, it is a flying sword, a thousand miles.
"Practicing Qi and Transforming God" is different from using one's own divine thoughts as a guide, the physical body is the medium, and it can drive various energies in the universe without the help of any magic weapons, and it can emit thunder and lightning with every move, and the three flavors of true fire
"Practicing God and Returning to Emptiness" can be immortal. Eliminate the six realms of reincarnation. "Lian Xuan Hedao" is even more to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and you can travel all over the five lakes and seas with a snap of your fingers, and the eight wildernesses**. The breakthrough at each stage is not much worse than jīngwei reclamation and Yugong moving mountains.
"The Shushan Sword Sect is indeed a rich country! Thousands of years of looting are not covered. Even the imitation purple and blue twin swords are extremely powerful. If it's really a Ziying Sword, a Qingsuo Sword. I'm afraid that the masters of "Practicing God and Returning to the Void" have to fight! No wonder even the 10,000-year-old blood demon had to hate under the double sword wall. Could it be that the disciples of Shushan use such a good flying sword in the world, and the old ghost of Lingyun also died unjustly. Hmph!!! I grabbed two excellent flying swords, as well as cheats, and my strength has increased greatly, which can be regarded as avenging the old ghost of Lingyun. "This Zhou Qing is wrong, although it is an imitation, there are only a few in the Shushan faction, after all, Taiyi Jin jīng is not so easy to get, and the savings of a thousand years are only a few dozen catties. Cultivation is extremely outstanding only for disciples, plus Zhao Liang and the parents of that senior sister have great power and financial resources in the world. The elders of Shushan also loved the two very much, so they were given two handfuls. Otherwise, with the cultivation of the two of them in the middle stage of qi induction into the body, how could they seriously injure the white python who had been practicing the Tao for two hundred years. Forming a demon pill is the strength of the late stage of qi induction. After one middle and one post, the difference in cultivation is more than three times.
"Sword Qi Volley Technique" opened this snatched old-fashioned thread-bound book, Rao is Zhou Qing is calm and excellent work, or taken aback, this is a profound sword immortal cultivation method! Using the sword as a medium to communicate with heaven and earth, absorbing energy, the better the sword, the faster the absorption speed, much faster than the physical body, no wonder the ancient sword immortal was rampant!"I said that those two boys have cultivated to the middle stage of qi induction in more than ten years?"
A surge of air flowed, and the Qingsuo Sword was put into the body, the Ziying Sword was for women, Zhou Qing was not stupid enough to accept it, although in line with the jīng god who would never be wasted, but with the current cultivation, there was no way to erase the above formation and re-practice, so he had to put it on hold.
In the next few days, Zhou Qing didn't go out an inch, hiding at home and using the Qingsuo sword to practice the "Sword Qi Volley", the material of the impure flying sword was also practiced into a four-inch square seal, the ancient treasures recorded in the general outline of the training weapon, Zhou Qing was most interested in the Kongtong Great Sage Guangchengzi's sky-turning seal, which can be big or small, covering a radius of thousands of miles when it is large, and the hour is like a mustard seed. This seal is called the small upside down, not to mention the material problem, with Zhou Qing's cultivation in the early stage of qi induction, a little bit of the true yuan of heaven and earth aura transformation quenching body used up more than half, and the other half reluctantly carved a Sumeru mustard seed array on it, so that the seal can be big or small, but Zhou Qing did it with all his might, and it was only from four inches square to one meter. It's thousands of miles away from that coverage, and it can't be touched. A few pieces of jade that were snatched were also good goods, and one of them from the junior sister was actually black jade, an excellent material for practicing invisibility talismans, of course Zhou Qing would not waste it.
The river breeze is blowing, and the afterglow of the falling rì flows a little golden light on the surface of the river. Zhou Qing was full of emotion, thinking back to his five years of cultivation, he was careful in everything, and he was really walking on thin ice. Zhou Qing knows very well that this world of cultivators is a world where strength is respected, and secular laws are not much stronger than waste paper in the eyes of cultivators.
From now on, I will plunder a qiē to improve my strength, to hell with any morality and righteousness, to hell with any avenue, as long as I am strong enough, I am the Tao. I am the sky, and the reason why heaven and earth are so strong is because it is unkind, and it regards all things as dogs! What gods, demons, immortals, and Buddhas. It's all illusory things, only the eternal power is more original!!" Zhou Qing's mind rolled and roared like a tsunami. God is very natural.
Walking along the river, walking and walking, you will arrive at the antique street, which is the largest antique, jade and porcelain trading center in C city is also well-known in H province. As the day gets late, the pedestrians on the street are also returning home one after another, and the owners of each shop have pulled down the iron doors, and the stallholders are also carefully packing up their goods. Zhou Qing walked briskly to a storefront facing the street. "He Zibo, when did you come back!
"Well, I went to xīzàng, I went home yesterday, I received some gadgets, and I was about to call you at night to come and identify it, no, you came. Come in, I'm closed. ”
He Zibo is Zhou Qing's college classmate, and he has been determined to be a collector since he was a child, and after graduation, he and his girlfriend opened this plus antique store, unlike Zhou Qing who played guerrillas everywhere
"Where's Yang Jing?" Zhou Qing came into the room, looked at it, and asked. "She's gone out shopping with some of her sisters. I won't come back until nine o'clock in the evening, come and see, I have collected some good things this time. ”
A navy blue wheel of Dharma is densely engraved with Sanskrit scriptures. It is an artifact used by Tibetan Buddhist monks to pray for blessings. Among them, there are also people who have cultivated to the advanced level, and blessed them with Buddha power to make magic weapons to subdue demons and drive away evil spirits. Zhou Qing swept his mind, but did not find the fluctuation of mana, and knew that it was just an ordinary goods, the age was very old, and the production was also very fine, and it was also a high-quality folk handicraft. A few small jīng beautiful Tibetan knives, some ancient sè ancient incense with strong Tibetan sè color ornaments.
I picked a few pieces at random, along with the navy blue Falun. Zhou Qing pushed aside and said to He Zibo: "Give me these things, how much is it?"
"rì! it's like this every time, why don't you call Zhou Papi?" He Zibo scolded with a smile, "But you kid can get a good price every time, damn, it's much more expensive than what I sell, I really don't know how you found those wronged people, like this, the cost price, 2300." ”
"Okay! I'll take it, and the money will be given to you tomorrow!"
"Don't worry, let's have two drinks before leaving, I just have a few beers here. ”
When Zhou Qing heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, "I won't drink with you, Yang Jing won't pick your skin when he comes back." "He Zibo is a very poor drinker, but he treats wine as his life. I don't know how many times I have scolded my wife for this. Thinking about Yang Jing's horror, Zhou Qing couldn't help but shudder and grabbed something. grabbed the door and left, and left a sentence "Brother, you are committing a crime against the wind!" He Zibo was suddenly depressed.
After a few months of cultivation, the Sword Qi Volley Technique has achieved a small success. The true yuan in the dantian is strong, and the physical body is more than twice as strong. A few months was even better than five years of penance, and Zhou Qing sighed at the importance of the cultivation method. But Zhou Qing was not very satisfied.
"Old man Lingyun said, although the Shu Mountain Sword Sect is a big faction, its ranking is still under Kunlun, Heavenly Master, and Spear Mountain. Although this way of cultivating qi with a sword is progressing quickly, after all, it has fallen behind the side door, and the foundation is unstable. There's no way, if Lao Tzu cultivates according to himself, I'm afraid it will take decades to reach the middle stage of qi induction! En, I'm going to go out for a walk, and I meet a Kunlun disciple who cultivates for the land to grab some magic tricks, anyway, it's not the first time Lao Tzu has done this. They are a sect handed down from ancient Taoist families. There are definitely good things. ”
Ding, ding, ding! The Falun made a pleasant sound as Zhou Qing slowly rotated. A serene zen flows through the heart. Eccentric...... I found a treasure, Zhou Qing thought to himself.
"Calm your heart and calm your spirit, destroy your heart and demons, it's a treasure of the Buddha Sect! How can you not see the slightest fluctuation of mana? Especially since it seems to be engraved with a lost ancient Sanskrit! It is really strange to the extreme!"
If you don't understand it, don't think about it, Zhou Qing's life is weird, but he is not radical. Knowing that this Falun was not ordinary, he couldn't help but sigh when he continuously changed the techniques of thirty-six kinds of sacrificial magic weapons, but the Falun did not react at all. The mind was once again immersed in the "Sword Qi Volley Technique", and bit by bit the aura of heaven and earth dissolved into Zhou Qing's dantian
