"He, what happened outside the city, there are such strange clouds?"

Chen Qi jumped off the ground, and his heart couldn't stop churning. He didn't believe that those black clouds that looked like giant beasts and fluttered were serious celestial phenomena.

Chen Qi thought to himself: "This kind of strange thing, what kind of evil magic is the ** of the Ten, I just don't know what kind of characters are coming to Poyang Mansion City." But why did I suddenly have the feeling of wanting to swallow those clouds in one go? The Taishang Transformation Dragon Technique looks quite above board, but when it is transported to the Five Yin Bags, it can devour the essence and blood, and it can be used between the beds to replenish it, and now there are such signs, I am afraid that this method is not a good way. ”

Chen Qi thought for a while, suddenly became ruthless, and said to himself in his heart: "I am not a righteous person in my own family, and the Taishang Dragon Technique is an evil sect, so there are unpredictable consequences, that is, I just practice all the way...... Without this method, I am just a thief, and I don't know when I will be punished for evil and good, and I will die. Even if this method will cause me something bad to do, it will always make me happy now, living and dying, worrying about so many things, and not thinking about it anymore. Who knows if you have lived today, and you will not be able to live in this world tomorrow. For example, when I went out, I ran into Wang Changsheng, the elder of Heshan Road, but I was afraid that I would die on the spot, and I was thinking about the future, not too stupid. ”

Chen Qi thought to himself that being a thief was originally a business that has no tomorrow, and he calculated so far away, it was purely mediocre self-disturbance, so he immediately went back to the room, closed the door and practiced penance, and never bothered anymore......

He didn't know that his thoughts were secretly in line with the state of mind of Taishang Hualong and the Nine Heavens, and he unconsciously made slight progress in Taoism.

Like Chen Qi and others, they are full of blood, unscrupulous, and not jealous of wealth, and they are not the embryos of cultivation. However, although this Taishang Dragon Recipe seems to be authentic, it is actually an extremely strange method, plundering the vitality of heaven and earth, the essence of all things, and returning to itself, which is extremely domineering in nature. Therefore, people like Chen Qi are more in line with this method.

From this moment on, Chen Qi could be regarded as stepping into the true threshold of the Taishang Dragon Technique.

Six black ropes, Xuanyin ghost slashing talismans, mixed sky flags, five yin bags, and soul fixing talismans, slowly flying around Chen Qi's body...... After many days of hard cultivation, Chen Qi not only greatly improved his mana, but also became more and more proficient in manipulating magic weapons. Originally, he could only use one or two magic weapons of Heshan Dao, but now he could use five magic weapons together.

Lu Haozhi sat on the side with a complicated expression, looking at the former "Seventh Brother" with all kinds of methods, he was really envious, jealous and hateful, and had a mixture of tastes. Chen Qi was impatient to serve him, after all, it was quite troublesome to eat and drink Lazar every day, since he refined the magic weapon of Heshan Dao, he gradually relaxed his control over Lu Haozhi, and did not bind him anymore, but did not allow Lu Haozhi to leave.

Lu Haozhi saw that Chen Qi suddenly stopped practicing spells, and put away a few magic weapons together, so he hurriedly brought a basin of hot water, sent a wrung towel, and asked Chen Qi to wipe his face and hands, with a loyal posture...... It only took half a day for Chen Qi to get used to the days when this "second brother" served, and he enjoyed it with peace of mind.

Chen Qi saw Lu Haozhi's expression, and suddenly smiled: "Lu Haozhi, do you know why I didn't kill you?"

Lu Hao's heart sighed, now that his status has changed, he has no choice but to call him by his name in Chen Qi's mouth, but his face is very respectful, and he said with a smile: "Presumably the villain still has some use, so the seventh brother left me a cheap life." ”

Chen Qi smiled and said, "That's right. ”

However, Chen Qi only said this, so he didn't say anything, and he didn't say the reason, but it made Lu Haozhi scratch his heart like a hundred claws, the river and the sea were churning, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and he didn't know what Chen Qi thought in his heart......

Chen Qi didn't care about Lu Haozhi, thought about it and said, "We've stayed in Poyang Mansion City for a long time, so let's go back to Tianma Mountain Dazhai quickly!"

Lu Haozhi didn't know why Chen Qi thought so, but he could only make friends with him. Chen Qi smiled, but thought in his heart: "It seems that this Poyang Mansion City is changing more and more, I don't know how many capable people come here, although I have had an adventure, but I may not be the protagonist in this major event." It's time to go back to Tianma Mountain to cultivate with peace of mind. Tianma Mountain is a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a good place to relax. It turns out that I'm just a small fish and shrimp, this time I go back, but I'm going to become the master of a village, although the black whirlwind is powerful in martial arts, but how can I resist my spells?"

Chen Qi glanced at Lu Hao, and said in his heart: "It's just that I'm too young after all, and I have no foundation in the cottage, even if I kill the Black Whirlwind, the rest of the people won't obey me, maybe they want to think about how to betray me...... Lu Haozhi is the owner of the second village, he usually has a lot of scheming, and he also has many cronies, and if he kills the black whirlwind, he can take over the cottage. With him in front, I don't have to worry about the livelihood of the cottage, and I have a lot of cultivation skills. Otherwise, if you worry about hundreds of people eating horses and chewing in Tianma Mountain Village all day long, where will you have the leisure to cultivate?"

Chen Qi can have these thoughts, and he has benefited from teaching him to read with his mother, and the other part is among the bandits, and he has seen a lot of things, much more than a young man of the same age......

Lu Haozhi's mind was brilliant, and he was worried that he would be killed by Chen Qishun all day long, otherwise with his wisdom, he might not be able to think of these keys. Now the status of the two is very different, Lu Haozhi looks at Chen Qi, there is always a bit of mystery, and he is blinded by a lot of wisdom, the two ends of the first rat, can not see through the mind of this Chen master.

Neither of them is a procrastinator, Chen Qi wants to move, Lu Haozhi doesn't dare to rub in, the two of them pack up a little way, each with a blade, and want to leave Poyang Mansion City. But when the two of them walked near the city gate, they saw that the gate of the city, which was supposed to be full of people, was pressing, and soldiers patrolled everywhere, and there were no ordinary people entering and leaving at all.

Chen Qi and Lu Haozhi both looked at each other, or Lu Haozhi was clever, casually pulled a pedestrian, handed over seven or eight copper coins, and then inquired, it turned out that the Poyang Mansion Order and the Duliang County Taishou issued a closure order together, saying that the imperial court had important matters and banned traffic inside and outside the city, and people outside the city were not allowed to come in, nor did they let people in the city go out......

Chen Qi hasn't gone out for the past few days, but he doesn't know about it, and Lu Haozhi can't figure out why there has been such a change. Of course, Chen Qi would not lose his brains and blatantly rush out of the city, even if he had some spells, it would inevitably provoke the Supreme Elder of Heshan Dao to come out.

Seeing Chen Qi's hesitation, Lu Haozhi couldn't help but say, "Since we can't get out, it's better to go to the Bamboo Branch Gang to find out the news and see what the reason is." ”

Chen Qi was a little embarrassed, but there was no good way, so Lu Haozhi led the way and went straight to the helm of the Bamboo Branch Gang in Poyang Mansion City...... The Bamboo Branch Gang is one of the three major forces in Duliang County, and it stands with the Flower Drum Hall and the Sanshan Faction. In Poyang City, it has a deep foundation, and the place where the helm is located is a freight yard in the east of the city.

This place is very active, and there are mule and horse gangs, and the merchants who come and go from Poyang Fucheng are unloading goods here, hiring mules and horses, and even selling large quantities of goods here.

The main business of the Bamboo Branch Gang is to run goods, but all the goods of the Bamboo Branch Gang have the symbol of bamboo branches. On the goods of the merchants, as long as there is the sign of the Bamboo Branch Gang, they will go south and north, and the heroes from all walks of life will give some face. This gang is different from the thieves who rob for a living in Tianma Mountain, they have their own serious business, so they can hook up with the government, and many things that are inconvenient for the government can be handed over to the Bamboo Branch Gang to do...... Therefore, the bamboo branch gang is powerful, and it is much stronger than Tianma Mountain Dazhai, and it is much easier to recruit people than Tianma Mountain.

If you are not an outlaw, or you can't live anymore, who wants to be a robber?

But the Bamboo Branch Gang, a gang with serious business, ordinary high-rollers, are also willing to defect when they are in distress, and the two have different reputations, and their futures are very different.

Lu Haozhi often comes and goes, and he is also a familiar face, he asked a few low-level members of the Bamboo Branch Gang, Li Meimei was in the camp outside the city, so he naturally couldn't inquire. At this time, the person who presided over the help in the general rudder was Luo Feng, the personal disciple of the great gang leader. When Lu Haozhi heard that this person was there, he was a little embarrassed.

Chen Qi also heard Luo Feng's name next to him, and remembered that Lu Haozhi had mentioned it on the road, Luo Feng was going to marry the female apprentice of the Great Elder Fenglin of the Three Mountains Sect, and the two families were colluding, and he was also a little curious in his heart. He saw that Lu Haozhi's face was quite ugly, so he asked, "Why is the second brother so expression, aren't you familiar with Luo Feng?"

Lu Haozhi saw that there was no one left and right, so he lowered his voice and said: "I only have some friendship with the third gang leader Li Meimei in the Zhuzhi Gang, and the other two gang leaders only know me as a person." That Luo Feng has been passed down by the big gang leader, and his martial arts are not under the three gang leaders, and he is very arrogant. ”

Chen Qi heard the clue and couldn't help laughing: "This person can't afford to look down on the second brother, right?"

Although Lu Haozhi's face was embarrassed, he had to nod and said: "Luo Feng has a very big temper, I'm not afraid of him, but if I go, I will either touch the head or be ridiculed, and the news may not come out, so let's not go." ”

Chen Qi groaned slightly, and was about to agree, when he suddenly heard a long laugh, and a rather heroic young man in a gray cloth shirt walked out from the side. When he saw Lu Haozhi, he said loudly: "It turned out to be Lu Haozhi, you didn't rob the house in Tianma Mountain, why did you come to the helm of our Bamboo Branch Gang? ”

Lu Haozhi didn't expect Luo Feng to be so easy to talk about today, but he didn't hide it, and told Li Meimei's whereabouts quickly. He thanked him, and Chen Qi next to him saw that Luo Feng's face was quite sarcastic, and suddenly understood, and said in his heart: "This kid knows that Poyang Mansion has been banned, cut off traffic, and deliberately said Li Meimei's whereabouts, but he is teasing Lu Haozhi." ”
