Chapter 12: Afraid of cats

When Qingshi looked at Liu Ao, Liu Ao happened to look over as well.

Looking at each other, the two frowned at the same time, both noticing that the other was unusual.

Liu Ao was surprised that Qingshi's body had an atmosphere of battlefield gunsmoke.

Qingshi naturally discovered this, he slowly walked over and hugged his fist at Liu Ao:

"The Eighth Army of the Demon Suppression Army, Squad Leader Qingshi!"

Liu Ao smiled back, but just hugged his fists, "My name is Jia Ming." ”

A flash of doubt flashed in Qingshi's eyes, Jia Ming?

"You're going to stand up for this little brat?"

Liu Ao pointed at Li Mad and said with a smile:

"Is it worth it?"

Qingshi's expression was complicated, and there was a hint of helplessness in the depths of his eyes:

"I don't want to, but I don't have a choice. ”

"I have to get my sister a place to join Jiuding Academy. ”

Liu Ao was surprised:

"If you want to join Jiuding Academy, you have to take the assessment, what does this have to do with you helping people to be thugs?"

Qingshi's face was full of bitterness, "The assessment of joining Jiuding Academy is very difficult, my sister's talent is not good, and several major families in Lanbo City have three places to directly join Jiuding Academy, so..."

Liu Ao nodded lightly, but there was anger in his heart.

Shooting at his comrades-in-arms is the most despised thing in the Demon Army.

"Hey, how about you two play with me?"

Li roared furiously and pushed a handful of bluestones, "Didn't you just break through the Great Martial Master, beat him up for me!"

A murderous aura flashed in Qingshi's eyes, which frightened Li Mad and took a few steps back.

"Do you still want your sister to join Jiuding Academy!"

Li Mad threatened:

"As long as you do it, my Li family will give you a place!"

Qingshi sighed and looked at Liu Ao with a guilty face:

"Shoot, I'll be careful. ”

Liu Ao chuckled, revealing a hint of indifference in his eyes, "Make a move, I won't keep your hand on you because of your sister." ”

"Good!"

Qingshi's eyes flickered, his body took a few steps back, and he had already pulled out the dagger at his waist.

Liu Ao was slightly surprised, most of the daggers in the Demon Suppression Army were scout squads, responsible for finding out news and assassinating the Demon Clan in the Demon Clan's territory, and the danger level was higher than that of ordinary Demon Suppression Army soldiers.

Liu Ao's body sank slightly, his hands on his chest, and he was ready.

"Look at the move!"

Qingshi let out a low snort, kicked the ground with his right leg, and his body burst out, his speed so fast that he only left a phantom.

Liu Ao's eyes narrowed, his right hand grabbed Qingshi's wrist holding the dagger, and his left hand clenched his fist and smashed into his chest.

There was a meager red spiritual power lingering around his fist, and a strong wind came to Qingshi's chest.

Seeing Qingshi's grim expression, he suddenly leaned back, raised his right leg, and kicked Liu Ao's chin.

Liu Ao hurriedly retreated, but he could avoid it.

Then, the two of them rushed up again, leaping high at the same time, kicking a whip leg in the air.

"Bang!"

Feeling the pain in his legs, Qingshi's pupils shrank, and his eyes began to be excited:

"You are also a great martial artist. ”

Liu Ao finally wrote the anger in his heart on his face, extracted the spiritual power in the vein, gathered it on his fist, and slammed it into Qingshi's shoulder.

Qingshi's eyes widened, and he hurriedly extracted spiritual power and gathered it in his arms, choosing to resist this punch.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, Qingshi was beaten upside down and flew out, and when he landed, he slid out several feet before he could stabilize his body.

Liu Ao angrily reprimanded:

"It's better to ask for others than for yourself, pin your hopes on others, you don't deserve to call me a comrade-in-arms!"

"Do you really think that others will give you the opportunity to join Jiuding Academy? Do you think they are brothers in your army?"

Qingshi's face turned pale, "They promised me, but they only asked me to do things for them in the next five years." ”

"Pig brains!"

Liu Ao roared, "Look back!"

Qingshi turned back suddenly, but saw that a black-robed old man in the distance had already raised his bow and arrows, and the two arrows that were ready to fire had already aimed at Liu Ao and Qingshi.

Qingshi knew that this old man was the chief butler of the Wu family in Lanbo City, a senior martial artist.

"Why!"

Qingshi roared angrily, his eyes red.

The old man sneered, the folds on his face were squeezed together, looking extremely sinister, "Qingshi, you are still a scout, is it possible that you can't see it, our purpose is your experience in joining the army?"

The old man looked back and saw a young man walking out behind him, with the same expressionless face, and the temperament on his body was the same as that of Qingshi, as if he had really been precipitated on the battlefield for several years.

The old man smiled jokingly, "In the future, Wu Yonggongzi will be called Qingshi, and he has the experience of joining the army, and after he joins Jiuding Academy, he will definitely be able to get more attention." ”

Qingshi's face was full of disbelief, and his eyes widened, "Wu Yong, you lied to me, you followed me during this time to imitate the aura on my body!"

Wu Yong said indifferently:

"If you want to blame you, you are too naΓ―ve, who do you think you are? Who is your sister?

"Shut up!" Qingshi roared angrily, and rushed directly towards the old man.

At this moment, the brave soldiers on the battlefield finally picked up the dignity they once had!

Liu Ao's eyes were cold, and he rushed forward after Qingshi, faster than him.

"Boom~"

Two arrows burst into their chests.

The bluestone dagger is held in reverse grip and slashes at the arrow.

With a "ding" sound, sparks shot out, and a huge force flew backwards with the bluestone, Liu Ao hurriedly reached out and grabbed him, and the sword of Ao picked it up backwards and smashed another arrow away.

Feeling the huge force coming, Liu Ao's heart sank, the strength of this old man should be a high-level martial artist.

What's even worse is that Qingshi suddenly vomited blood and said in horror:

"I was poisoned!"

Liu Ao's eyes narrowed, he remembered the faces of the old man and the young man in his mind, put the bluestone on his back, turned around and ran.

"Give me chase!"

The old man's face was gloomy, and with an order, two junior martial artists suddenly appeared from the crowd and followed him to pursue Liu Ao.

The city gate is closed, and it is not difficult for Liu Ao to escape, but with Qingshi, he will definitely be caught up.

So Liu Ao turned a corner and slammed into an inn.

The diners in the inn looked over one after another, only to see a figure hurrying through, smashing the window on the other side and running away.

Lanbo City is very large, and Liu Ao ran for half an hour before sneaking into a courtyard called 'Jiuding Pavilion' with bluestone on his back and hiding in an uninhabited room.

Liu Ao looked around and found that except for a few handymen, there was no one else living in this courtyard.

The room is lightly furnished, as if it has been uninhabited for a long time, but it is exceptionally clean.

Seeing that Qingshi's face was dark, his whole person's breath was disordered, and he was already at the end of his strong crossbow, Liu Ao couldn't help but feel anxious.

There are many people in the demon clan who are good at using poison, and detoxification is a skill that the soldiers of the demon suppression army have.

But Liu Ao knew very well that the bluestone was not any kind of toxin that he was familiar with.

Reaching out to hold the meridians of Qingshi's wrist, he found that his spiritual power was running around, and there were vague signs of loss of control.

"Oh no," Liu Ao frowned, "the meridians will be crushed by the out-of-control spiritual power." ”

The top priority is to suppress the spiritual power in Qingshi's body.

Liu Ao gritted his teeth, reached out to support the back of the bluestone, and injected his spiritual power into the bluestone meridians along the palm of his hand.

If this process is a little careless, Liu Ao and Qingshi will be seriously injured in their meridians.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ao's spiritual power had just entered the bluestone meridian, and the originally uncontrolled spiritual power was like a mouse seeing a cat, and it obediently contracted towards the dantian and began to return to the vein.

Liu Ao was also surprised by this, and immediately let out a sigh of relief.

An hour later, Qingshi coughed violently, spat out a few mouthfuls of black blood, and opened his eyes weakly.

His eyes were full of gratitude and self-blame, and as soon as he wanted to speak, he heard Liu Ao say in a deep voice:

"Without further ado, hurry up and recover, and leave Blue Wave City together at night. ”

Qingshi nodded and slowly closed his eyes.

Late at night, high in the moon.

The whole 'Jiuding Pavilion' is extremely quiet.

Only then did Liu Ao realize one thing, that is, this place was unusual.

From the time he hid here, Liu Ao found that there was no street around, but there were tall trees planted outside the courtyard wall, as if this was a very special place in Lanbo City.

"Jiuding Pavilion?"

Liu Ao immediately thought of Jiuding Academy, could it be that what else does this have to do with it?

Qingshi opened his eyes, walked to the door of the room and looked out, and said in a low voice:

"It's almost time, we're going out of the city through the secret passage now, after leaving the city, I'll pick up my sister, you leave first." ”

Liu Ao was not surprised that Qingshi knew about the secret passage, he was able to inquire about the news in the territory of the demon clan, if he didn't even have this ability, Qingshi would have died dozens of times.

Just as the two of them were about to push the door and leave, footsteps suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

Listening to the light footsteps, it must be a few women.

Liu Ao and Qingshi lowered their bodies and looked out through the crack in the door.

The moonlight was shining, and several women in white dresses carried long swords, moved lotus steps, and sat down at the stone table in the middle of the courtyard.

Except for the young woman who was holding a small white cat at the head, the others were slightly tired.

"Okay, let's go back to our rooms to rest, don't forget that we have other tasks," the woman at the head stood up and walked towards the room where Liu Ao and the others were hiding.

Liu Ao's face changed, and before he could react, he was pulled back by Qingshi and hid under the bed.

"Squeak~"

The door was pushed open, Liu Ao only saw the woman step in, and after closing the door, he put the little white cat on the table, took off the silver boots on his feet, and approached with his bare snow-white feet.

There was a burst of fragrance, and Liu Ao only saw a white dress falling in front of him.

Liu Ao's old face flushed, and he hurriedly closed his eyes.

After a while, there were spiritual power fluctuations in the room, and it was obvious that the woman had begun to cultivate.

Liu Ao didn't dare to move, for fear of alarming her, and even more afraid of being regarded as a thief.

But Liu Ao forgot about the little white cat!

"Meow~"

The little white cat twisted her body and walked under the bed, Liu Ao's body stiffened, and she couldn't help but tremble.

He tried his best to suppress the urge to jump out, closing his eyes and clenching his teeth.

"Meow Meow~"

The little white cat moved to the edge of the bed and looked at Liu Ao curiously, its fluffy tail brushing Liu Ao's face.

"Ahh

Liu Ao's body trembled, roared, and jumped out.

"Who!"

With a clear sound, the woman on the bed picked up her long skirt and blocked it in front of her, but saw a back figure slamming open the door and escaping.

"Whore!"

The woman scolded angrily, put on her skirt three or two, and rushed out of the room with her sword raised.

"Senior Sister Murong, where are the lewd thieves?"

A group of girls ran out of the room, swords in their hands.

Murong Yue's face was full of shame and indignation, and he gritted his teeth, "Sou, he must still be in the yard!"

In the room, bluestone quietly came out from under the bed, with a helpless face:

"Dare to go to the battlefield to kill demons, but you are afraid of a cat, what is this?"
