Volume 1 The First Awakening of Nangong City Chapter 39 City Lord's Mansion
Walking on the road, Bai Qianchen's long sword was still on Xiu Yu's shoulder, as if he was afraid that Xiu Yu would suddenly escape.
The Crane Hand Capture Dragon is a lost mastery, and there are some records about the Crane Hand Capturing the Dragon in the surviving ancient books. This is a rare technique that condenses the technique and the body method, the trick is strange and can grab the soldier with the bare hands, and capture the person invisibly; the body is like a swimming dragon, fluttering swift shadows, and the legend is that it can fight with the dragon with the technique, and even the dragon can be captured empty-handed.
At present, the cultivation of Yu is still low, so he can only use simple techniques and body techniques, and only when he reaches the advanced realm will the power of this peerless study gradually be revealed. But even so, for now, it's just an introductory masterpiece, and it still has extraordinary abilities.
Even if he is besieged, he can easily wander through the crowd and easily take other people's weapons.
The three of them walked very slowly, and Bai Qianchen and Nangong Xiaomo, two women, were not worried about letting Xiuyu ride a horse alone, so they kept walking on foot.
Walking through the bushes and woods, walking on a road, Bai Qianchen did not relax his vigilance from beginning to end, Xiuyu endured it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Hey, I said White Girl, aren't you tired of holding me like this?"
Bai Qianchen said calmly: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up." She glanced at the impatient Xiuyu, "If you tell the secret of the Absolute Learning now, I will release you now." If you don't say it, I can only take you back to Nangong City first. ”
Xiu Yu replied helplessly: "I really don't know what you are talking about, it's just an ordinary move and body technique, maybe you are wrong......
"Admit your mistake?" Bai Qianchen snorted coldly, with a dusty temperament on his beautiful face, "A soldier who snatches people with his bare hands, in the siege of more than a dozen people, in addition to being unlearned, is there any other body and technique in this world that can be compared?"
"That's because their cultivation is too low...... I'm a fourth-order qi refiner, can I still have pressure to deal with some second-order and third-order strength cultivators? This is too embarrassing for a qi refiner!" Xiu Yu shook his head.
On the side, Nangong Xiaomo pursed her lips and interjected: "Sister Bai, I think maybe you admit your mistake." She glanced at Xiu Yu and said disdainfully: "Do you look at his dead appearance, like a scourge to a woman, like a legendary peerless person?"
"I think I can kill him with a sword. He killed so many people in the City Lord's Mansion, he deserved to die, not to mention that this guy was not a good person in the first place, and staying in the world would only harm countless innocent women!"
Xiuyu: "......"
Xiu Yu rolled his eyes speechlessly, Nangong Xiaomo looked like he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic. In her eyes, he is a heinous murderer, a perverted death, if Bai Qianchen hadn't told her in advance, she would have immediately raised her sword and pierced Xiuyu's heart with a sword.
Bai Qianchen glanced at Nangong Xiaomo sideways and said, "I won't admit my mistake!"
"Absolute learning is absolute learning, if you don't say it now, when you get to Nangong City, I have a way for you to say it. ”
She urged Xiu Yu to stop talking nonsense and hurry up.
Helpless, Xiu Yu could only continue to walk under the threat of Bai Qianchen's long sword.
Along the way, he began to secretly run Xuangong and restore his spiritual power.
The spiritual power of a qi refiner can only rely on the first wisp of innate spiritual energy in the body, which can be derived through the operation and condensation of exercises. Qi refiners are not like other cultivators, they can replenish and restore the lost spiritual power by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the essence of heaven and earth.
And there is a very serious drawback, once the spiritual power is in a state of deficit for a long time, then the realm will decline, and if you want to restore the original realm cultivation, it will take more time than before to accumulate. Therefore, Qi Refiner is the most difficult path in the world to cultivate, in the early stage, it is necessary to focus most of your energy on Qi refining, only by constantly accumulating spiritual power and breaking through the shackles of the body, will you have the opportunity to contact the power of heaven and earth.
However, fortunately, Xiuyu's family heirloom Xuan Gong was extraordinary, and the speed of recovering spiritual power far exceeded that of most Qi Refiners.
With the operation of Xuan Gong, the wisp of golden innate aura that swam in the meridians in his body began to derive spiritual power.
After a day and a night, the three of them finally walked under the gate of Nangong City.
At this time, many homeless people entered the city under the inspection of the guards.
Nangong Xiaomo paused and wondered, "How can there be so many refugees?"
From afar, groups of refugees staggered from afar.
Bai Qianchen frowned lightly and said, "This is related to the Phantom incident that happened in that area of the extreme east a few months ago, I heard that all the villages and towns in that area were slaughtered by Phantoms, and many people fled from the village in the disaster and rushed here. ”
Nangong Xiaomo showed a thoughtful look, she nodded slightly and said, "I have also heard about this matter in the city." ”
"It is rumored that there is a phantom in the far east, not only the people, but also many wild beasts in the mountains have been slaughtered, but I heard my sister say that the phantom seems to be dead, but how it died is unknown. ”
"The phantom thing is the reason why I came back this time......" The three of them saw two women and children walking by, and there was an unpleasant smell of blood and mud on their bodies, Bai Qianchen covered his mouth and nose, and then frowned slightly: "The people in the Dao Palace under Kunlun Mountain have released the news that the phantom that plagued the world has disappeared, but there is an amazing secret in Yanhuang City, which is far away in Nangong City, during this time, I am afraid that many children of the family who went out to practice and cultivate will come back, and they all want to find out what the phantom is about." ”
"And that amazing secret......"
Xiu Yu's eyes narrowed, and his face showed a look of indifference.
The Phantom is a murderous creature of ancient times, and each appearance will cause a bloody storm and cause misery. Wherever the Phantom passes, it turns into blood-colored dust. However, it is reassuring that the Phantom has been killed, and this ghostly demon who once caused a catastrophe in the world for a period of time died in the cradle without a sound.
As for the amazing secrets...... I'm afraid it's what the tomb keeper said, the only last demon in the world, two thousand years ago, the terrifying sword demon in the world!
The three of them didn't stay long, Bai Qianchen and Nangong Xiaomo looked at it for a while, and then entered the city at the signal of the guards.
It's still a quaint building, an old land. But it is not what it used to be, although it has experienced the baptism of the years, Nangong City still has not been able to retain the traces of the past.
Bai Qianchen drove Xiuyu and came to an ancient Chen's mansion.
At the intersection of the street, I looked up and saw a plaque above my head engraved with a few eye-catching big characters: 'City Lord's Mansion'.
Nangong City was originally in charge of the Nangong family, but a few years ago, something happened to the Nangong family, and the entire family migrated out, leaving only the two sisters Nangong Ruoxi and Nangong Xiaomo to rely on each other.
This is a household name for the people of Nangong City.
Entering the house, an elderly butler soon bent over.
The butler had white hair and a long beard, his face was wrinkled, and he looked very old and ordinary, as if he had lived in the City Lord's Mansion for many years.
"Miss Qianchen, Second Miss......" Fu Bo weiwei, "you are finally back." ”
Bai Qianchen stretched out his hand to straighten Fu Bo's body and said with a smile: "Grandpa Fu Bo, I have worked hard all these years. ”
Nangong Xiaomo grabbed Fu Bo's sleeve, changed her usual gloom, and muttered coquettishly: "Oh, Grandpa Fu, it's been a long time, Mo'er wants to kill you......"
"Ahem... Hehe" Fu Bo coughed and laughed, and scratched Nangong Xiaomo's nose dotingly, "You little girl, obviously you don't live far away, and you don't come to see me, an old man, for a year or two." ”
"Hey, hey, hey......" Nangong Xiaomo smiled awkwardly.
Fu Bo is not his name, but in Fu Bo in the City Lord's Mansion for many years, the people used to call him that, and then Fu Bo got old, people gradually forgot Fu Bo's name, and over time, the title of Fu Bo also accompanied him all his life.
A long time ago, when Nangong City was still the Nangong family, Fu Bo already existed. Therefore, compared with Bai Qianchen, Fu Bo has a deeper affection for Nangong's family.
After greeting the two girls, he turned his gaze to Xiu Yu on the side, and then asked, "Miss Qianchen... Who is this...?"
Bai Qianchen put away the long sword, and when she arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, she was not afraid that Xiuyu would run away, "He is the guy who sneaked into the Book Pavilion, and he is also the young man who cut off the Zhou family." ”
Fu Bo's old eyes looked at Xiu Yu, Xiu Yu had been looking at this old man before, originally he thought that Fu Bo was just an ordinary housekeeper, but after looking at each other at this moment, he found that Fu Bo's cloudy eyes had a faint essence.
This old man ...... And it's not easy!
The moment they looked at each other, this thought flashed through Xiuyu's mind.
Bai Qianchen said: "Fu Bo, then please take him down and lock him in the basement, and I'll deal with some things first." ”
"Yes. Fauber nodded.
Bai Qianchen pulled Nangong Xiaomo and said, "Let's go, take me to meet my sister first, we haven't seen each other for many years, and I still have to ask her about some things about the phantom." ”
Nangong Xiaomo glanced at Xiu Yu lightly, and a faint light flashed in her eyes.
The two girls quickly walked out of the house.
Well?
Aren't they afraid that I'll run away?
Doubts flashed in Xiu Yu's heart, and just as he was concentrating, Fu Bo's voice came.
"Let's go, young man. It seems that you have a lot of things in your young lady's feelings, so come with me to the underground prison. ”
Xiu Yu was about to speak, but found a huge force clamping his shoulder acupuncture point, making him unable to move, Fu Bo pinched Xiu Yu's shoulder and took him down.
Soon, behind the rockery cave in the back garden, Xiuyu was taken into a deep underground by Fubo.
"This is the underground prison of the City Lord's Mansion, and it is usually used to imprison some disobedient cultivators. ”
The underground prison was eerie and damp, with mossy walls and a green pool in the middle, the sound of the ticking water leaving ripples on the water.
Xiuyu tried to struggle twice, but found that his body was completely weak, and his shoulders seemed to be locked by a huge pincer, and it was difficult to break free. He asked, "Why did you bring me here, isn't this a place where prisoners are held?"
"You're a prisoner now. Fauber said calmly.
The underground prison was dimly lit, and it was gloomy everywhere, although it was a prison, but Xiu Yu looked all the way and didn't see a prison where prisoners were held.
Soon, Fu Bo took Xiuyu to a cage in the middle of the waterhole.
Fu Bo's old face didn't show half a bit of emotional fluctuations, and a pair of cloudy eyes didn't seem to be able to see people clearly, "This cage is made of hundred-year-old cold iron, and it is impossible to break it without the cultivation of the fifth order of qi refining." ”
"I just checked your body, and found that your spiritual power is being derived at an unreasonable speed, it seems that Miss caught you this time is not out of interest, maybe you really have something that Miss needs. ”
Fu Bo locked the chain and muttered, "Golden-colored innate aura, the purest qi refiner, the metallic spiritual power is flawless, it can be regarded as the superior spiritual power among the qi refiners, it is a good seedling, but the cultivation is still a little low, you just stay here now, and when Miss Qianchen comes, she will naturally dispose of you." ”
"This old man ......" Xiu Yu's eyes condensed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart.
This seemingly ordinary old man seems to be very simple.
Xiuyu tried to lift his breath and move the cage, but found that the cage did not move at all, and it was too hard to speak.
"Don't waste your strength, it's impossible to break through the cold iron cage before you reach the fifth-order cultivation. ”
Fauber spoke calmly again, and then left without saying a word.
In the dark and damp underground prison, only Xiuyu in the middle of the waterhole stood in the cage.
PS: Here's a word about it: It's so difficult! Mental avalanche! This period of time is estimated to be the darkest moment of my writing career, the computer crashed, let the master who repaired the computer take a look, but he didn't even reinstall the system for me without my consent, formatted all my computer data, all the hard work and accumulation were in vain, all the sweat and blood were ruthlessly emptied, hundreds of thousands of manuscripts, the outline all said goodbye with tears...... At the time of the opening of the new book, it seemed to be from planning, meditation, sorting, and trial writing, and it was interrupted for several days, and these changes felt that the state was not satisfactory, and the taste of writing was not as good as the manuscript, and the chapters updated in the past two days were very dissatisfied...... At one point, I wanted to give up, but in the end, reason prevailed over the disaster (yes, for me, it was like a disaster), regrouped, reorganized, and I will devote myself to the rest of the plot to complete this dream-carrying book............
I hope that if any of you see the chapters here, please don't give up and follow me all the way...... That's the biggest encouragement for me!
