Chapter 148: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
Li Qiyue barely stopped at all, and flew straight south for three months, without encountering any obstacles along the way. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoOn this day, he landed in a border town called Dongning, wanted to recuperate here for a while, and then walked through the desert and looked for an opportunity to sneak back to Jiugu Mountain.
At this time, not long after nightfall, the shops on both sides of the street were sparsely lit, because it had just rained, the street was wet, and pedestrians were scarce, he walked through the street, and saw that there was only one inn in the whole street, and it was full, so he turned into an alley, and sure enough, he saw an empty courtyard, so he climbed over the wall and entered the house, and there was a dry well in the courtyard, he simply jumped into the dry well, and arranged a magic circle, and hid his traces in it. Ten days later, his body recovered seventy-seven eighty-eight, and he was about to leave the dry well where he was, when he heard two living people suddenly break into the courtyard, so he held his breath and listened carefully to the people outside.
"Boss, we tracked all the way to this place, don't steal chickens and rice, this place is the ...... of the Demon Dao."
"That little beauty is a big ghost, although she is in the Qi training period, her escape speed is not ordinary, which reminds me of a kid in the same Qi training period I met more than a hundred years ago......"
"Boss, are you talking about the kid who asked for your lancet?"
"Who is it if it's not him? When I think of it afterwards, I feel like a stone is in my heart, and we were both bluffed by him at the time. β
"After all these years, you can rest assured - but let me meet that stupid boy again, I must break it into thousands of pieces, and relieve your hatred for you, bossβand for me. β
"Don't mention that kid yet, this little beauty must be nearby, let's look for it again, before dawn, whether we find it or not, we must leave this place. β
After saying that, the two groped around for a while before leaving the courtyard.
Li Qiyue seemed very familiar when he first heard this voice, but he couldn't remember who this person was for a while, but when he heard about the Lancet, he remembered the two robbers he had met on the way back to Taixumen after trading in Xiaogushan, the eldest surnamed Tan, with particularly obvious facial features, was a big red face, and the second brother was surnamed Zheng. Although a hundred years have passed, his cultivation has risen more than one level, but when he thinks of this, like the boss, he has been haunted by it, wanting to get rid of these two people as soon as possible. Of course, he will not act rashly, after all, the Mobei Bai family and the family behind Xue Qingshan are searching for him everywhere, as long as there is a slight movement, it will inevitably alarm these forces, and it will be difficult for him to get out at that time.
Since these two people had been locked by him, it was already difficult to escape from his palm, so he was not worried that they would escape.
After they left, Li Qiyue came out of the dry well and sat cross-legged on the roof. At this time, the starry sky in the sky is vague, the bright moon is in the sky, the silver-white moonlight is spread all over the cold sleeping town, and occasionally two crickets are singing on the wall...... In the distance, two dark shadows flickered around the town...... An hour later, another petite black figure burst out of the darkness and fled in a hasty southwestward direction, followed by the two figures from earlier.
Li Qiyue took a long breath and followed the three figures from a distance, and at the moment when Li Qiyue left, a delicate figure appeared not far away, snorted coldly, and said: In order to take you down in one fell swoop, I used most of the spies to find you, but I didn't expect that you, a kid in the Qi cultivation period with extremely poor qualifications, would advance to the middle stage of foundation building cultivation in just one hundred years, which was far beyond my expectations, and he also had the ability to change his body, no wonder I couldn't find you for so many years...... It seems that most of my efforts have been in vain. I knew that I would find one or two more helpersβbut with my cultivation in the Dan period, it should still be more than enough to take down a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building...... Why am I losing confidence in myself?
This is probably the so-called praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind!
Li Qiyue followed the three figures unhurriedly, he didn't expect this tracking to follow for three days and three nights, he couldn't help but admire the little girl who ran away in front, according to him, the little girl was only fourteen or five years old, but her cultivation was the thirteenth level of the Qi training period, and she practiced to the thirteenth level of the Qi training period at such an age, even if she started to practice in her mother's womb, it was also a sigh to ordinary people. Of course, the little girl's congenital fire spirit root and wind spirit root were indeed a fact, if it weren't for this advantage, coupled with the family's supply of a large number of elixirs, otherwise there would be no such cultivation. And what surprised him even more was that when the little girl volleyed into the void, her pace was not the same as him and others, as for how it was different, but he couldn't see it for a while, and it was similar to his lost step, perhaps because this little girl who was a thirteenth-level cultivator in the Qi cultivation period was no less than the two people who were chasing after him in the middle stage of foundation building and the late stage of foundation building.
Because the little girl turned to the northwest again, and this time the two people chasing behind her seemed to be determined to catch up with her, Li Qiyue didn't want to continue tossing, so he went around a direction and chose a wilderness to stop the little girl.
The little girl saw that Li Qiyue suddenly stopped in front of her, and she couldn't stop for a while, so she crashed into Li Qiyue's arms.
"Are you the helper of those two bad guys?" the little girl's face was flushed, and her fists were clenched, because she had been running for several days in a row, and at this time she was out of breath, and there were dense beads of sweat oozing from her face.
"I'm a bad guy. β
"Then you're going to fight the bad guys, why are you holding my hand and not letting go?"
"After cleaning up these two bad guys, I will ask you a question by the way. Li Qiyue let go of his hands, and as he spoke, his long sleeves swung in a row, and he instantly arranged a magic circle, and said to the little girl, "You stay where you are, I can keep you safe and sound." β
"Boss, the little girl has hired a helping hand from nowhere, no wonder she suddenly made a big turn, it turns out that someone here answers. β
"Second brother, when you open your eyes, it's just that there is one more mid-stage foundation building cultivator, you and I will work together to take it down, and then chase after that little girl. β
"Listen to the boss's arrangement. β
Li Qiyue smiled and said, "This time, the two of you have discussed how to divide the spoils, right?"
The boss surnamed Tan saw that Li Qiyue said something inexplicable, and pointed out their origin of blocking the road and robbing, scratched his head and said: "This Taoist friend is your surname, we have met before?"
The second brother surnamed Zheng said impatiently: "What are you talking about with him? β
Li Qiyue showed the blood red of his left hand and said, "Two fellow Daoists, do you remember this thing?"
After he finished speaking, he slashed the blood-red volley in the air, and the sound of breaking the air beeped and exploded. The boss surnamed Tan exclaimed, "This is the lancet I used a hundred years ago." β
The second brother surnamed Zheng also exclaimed: "No wonder I think this person is so kind, it turns out that this person is our ...... that time."
The eldest surnamed Tan interrupted the words of the second brother surnamed Zheng, and said: "It turned out to be an old man, I said goodbye in a hurry, I didn't have time to inquire about the name of the Taoist, but I didn't expect that a hundred years had passed in a blink of an eye, and now I know that the person we offended at the beginning was actually the famous red-haired god Li Qiyue Li Daoyou in the Central Plains Kyushu and Jiugu Mountain. β
Li Qiyue sneered: "Tan Daoyou actually knows my Li's false name?"
"It's already thundering!"
Li Qiyue said with a smile: "Since the two Daoists know my false name, then what should I do next?"
"I didn't know that Miss Ping was your person before, so please forgive me for the offense. Say goodbye!"
Li Qiyue saw that the two surnamed Tan and Zheng were far away, but he didn't want to embarrass them, otherwise it would be a vicious battle, maybe he could kill the other party with many magic weapons and spells on his body, but it was difficult to protect himself from being seriously injured. After confirming that the surname Tan waited for the two of them to walk away, he turned around and returned to the circle where Miss Ping was.
"Miss Ping, those two scoundrels who chased you just now have been scared away by me, you can tell me why they chased you now. β
Miss Ping pouted and said, "You know that you call me Miss Ping, why do you ask me so much?"
"Hehe, I want to know if you're telling the truth, and more importantly, I want to know if you're an honest and trustworthy girl. β
"Well, looking at your skinny monkey appearance, I didn't expect you to be a good person. My name is Feng Ping, my family calls me Ping'er, in a declining family of cultivators in the southeast of Yuzhou, my parents were recruited to deal with the Northern Demon Dao not long after I was born, and later I heard that they were killed by the Demon Dao people during the mission, and the nearby cultivators heard the words, and they had long coveted my family wealth, so I heard that I packed up and escaped overnight, I wanted to find a quiet place to practice, I didn't want to care about those things in the cultivation world - I didn't expect to be targeted by those two bad guys just when I went out, they have been chasing me for almost half a year, if it weren't for the fact that I have a family secret and because there are a lot of pills supplemented, I have escaped from under them countless times. Woohoo......"
"Miss Ping, put away your tears, I still have a few words to ask you. Do you know that pies don't fall out of thin air, and there are no good things in the sky that are picked up in vain? I wonder if your footwork is one of the family secrets?"
Feng Ping hesitated and said, "What's the difference between you and those bad guys?"
"Actually, it doesn't make a difference. β
Feng Ping's face changed slightly, but she was not in a hurry to escape, but tilted her head and said, "Then why should I tell you?"
"If you tell me, I can promise to do one thing for you. β
"Is it okay to do anything?"
"Yes. β
"That- I want to marry you-"
When Li Qiyue heard this, he almost choked with anger. He smiled bitterly and said, "With my skinny monkey-like face, do you want to marry me?
"My mother said that only her own husband would be desperate to protect her woman, and since you can get rid of those two people, I think you will be able to protect me, and I can tell you all my family secrets as a matter of course. β
