Chapter 157: Knowing the Cultivation Realm Temporarily as a bodyguard
Qian Jin asked in surprise, "Brother Jin, isn't this the Immortal Realm, why is it the Cultivation Realm again?"
Jin Ping laughed, "Brother, what are you talking about? Two thousand years ago, the Immortal Realm and the Cultivation Realm were separated, you don't know this, right?"
Qian Jin scratched the back of his head, "I really don't know, hehe." How can they be separated?"
"Think about it, Yuanying can split the ground with a sword of fifteen zhang, and Mahayana can split a thousand zhang, and the immortals are even more powerful. If the immortals fight, then it won't be a battle. ”
"Is the environment of the fairy world better than here?"
"Of course, why don't everyone want to become immortals? I heard that the aura there can be condensed into water. However, without such a strong aura, the skill of those immortals will also decline. ”
"Brother Jin, does that immortal still care about this cultivation realm now?"
"No matter. As long as it is not a devastating disaster, they will not reach out. ”
"And who is in charge of the Nether?"
"Of course, it is the cultivation alliance that manages it, or the previous model, and it is also the model of the immortal realm managing the cultivation realm. ”
"There is only one cultivation realm, but isn't there many in the lower realm?"
"Although there is only one cultivation realm, the cultivation realm is more than ten times that of the lower realm combined, there are more types, and the management is more complicated. ”
"Brother Jin, what do you think of the role of Bao?"
"Everyone looks at the role of magic weapons differently. I don't like to use magic weapons, but I like to fight hard, and I always feel that relying on magic weapons is not conducive to the improvement of my skills. However, if there is a magic weapon that you are very satisfied with, it will still be of great help to improve your combat ability. ”
The two chatted while eating meat and drinking, mainly Qian Jin asked and Jin Ping answered, Jin Ping didn't expect that Qian Jin was from the Nether Realm, just a rookie who came out of the deep mountains and old forests, and took the trouble to answer his questions. Qian Jin learned a lot of things in the cultivation realm from him, had an understanding of the first-class forces and super-first-class forces, and had a preliminary understanding of the general cultivation system and level division.
After the two separated, Qian Jin realized the huge cultivation of the truth and the survival rules of the jungle, but it also made him more determined to continue to go east;
Looking at the back of Brother Jinping going north, Qian Jin said silently in his heart, "Brother Jin, take care all the way, I also want to go to Beizhou with you to see your family, but unfortunately my relatives are rushing to Dongzhou, and I look forward to meeting in Dongzhou in the future." Pack up your mood, pack your bags, and continue to go southeast.
When he walked to a small city at the foot of the mountain on the north side of Yishan, it was getting late, so Qian Jin decided to rest here for one night and leave again the next day.
After tasting the famous animal meat in the small town, Qian Jin walked slowly along the street, looking at the bustling crowd from east to west, and feeling the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the cultivation realm. Suddenly, Qian Jin felt that someone was spying on his storage ring, and immediately increased his mental power to rush, and a lean child next to him "sighs", turned around and ran;
Qian Jin was also as smooth as a swimming dragon, following the thief unhurriedly in the crowd, keeping a distance of one zhang. After the child ran to the end of the street, he saw that Qian Jin was still following him unhurriedly, and immediately turned to Qian Jin and knelt down, shouting, "Master." He kowtowed three times to Qian Jin.
Seeing this scene, Qian Jin was a little stunned, "I'm not your master, you shouted wrong." ”
The child stood up and said to Qian Jin, "I already regard you as a master." ”
"Just because I'm going to arrest you?"
"It's not. My father said that whoever can catch up with me on the street will be my master. I have walked seventeen cities, and you are the first to catch up with me. ”
"Who is your father, and where is he?"
"My father is a cultivator, his skills are not high, and he is only in the middle of the Yuan Infant. He was seriously wounded in a human battle and died shortly after returning home. ”
"What's your name, how old are you, and what's your mother?"
"My name is Qiu Zhen, I am eleven years old this year, and my mother was killed by the enemy when I was seven years old. ”
"I'm just a mid-stage Jindan, my skills are too low, and I have to travel all the way east, so I can't be your master. ”
Qiu Zhen knelt down again and looked at Qian Jin firmly, "I already worship you as a teacher, no matter how high or low your skills are, where you want to go, I will follow you." ”
Seeing that he insisted, and that he felt a little pity for his background, Qian Jin agreed to accept him as an apprentice; Qiu Zhen saw that Qian Jin agreed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three more times.
When he returned to the door of the inn, Qian Jin saw a sign recruiting temporary mercenaries, saying that there was a task to escort goods over Yishan tomorrow, requiring Jin Dan to have more than one skill in the early stage.
Qian Jin asked the burly Yuan Infant who was sitting behind the sign, "Do you think I'm suitable?"
"Yes, it fits perfectly. You are in the middle stage of Jindan, twenty medium-sized spirit stones. ”
"What are the early and late stages of Jindan?"
"Ten and thirty. ”
"Is there any danger in this mission? what is worth the price?"
"We don't know what it is, it's the price from the employer. As for the danger, it is not much, mainly fierce beasts, and there is also a gang. But don't worry, the leader of that gang is only in the late Yuan Infant, and our captain is also in the late Yuan Infant. The man said a word to Qian Jin and explained again, for fear that he would worry about the bandit leader in the late Yuan Infant period.
"Okay, I'm participating, how do I go?"
"Tomorrow we will gather here and set off, and our employer and goods will be in this inn. ”
After Qian Jin registered his identity information, he took Qiu Zhen into his room.
Qiu Zhen asked with some doubts, "Master, you don't lack spirit stones, why do you want to be a temporary mercenary?"
"Don't you think that there are a lot of people walking with them? This is also the first time I have visited Yishan, and by the way, I also know about the situation. Besides, cultivation doesn't have to be just about practicing the Fa every day, you also need to understand the situation in this world. Reading 10,000 books and traveling 10,000 miles, we cultivators are to fight with different people and figure out different exercises, so that we can make progress and have a solid foundation. ”
Qiu Zhen is now in the late stage of Qi training, although his father used to be in the middle of the Yuan Infant period, but the exercises left behind are relatively low-level, only the mind is relatively strong, so he taught him "Divine Thoughts", "One Thought Becomes a God", "Flying Sword", "Overlord Sword" and "Ghost Steps", asking him to experience it himself. He was not short of spirit stones and pills, he stole seventeen cities in a row, and there were countless gold, silver and pills; he had to hand them over to Qian Jin, and as a master, it was naturally impossible for him to covet the things of his apprentices.
Early the next morning, Qian Jin took Qiu Zhen to join the escort team, there were three people on the employer's side, two women and one man, the male was in the middle of the Yuan Infant, and the two women were covered with their faces, and they were both in the middle of the Yuan Infant;
Seeing Qian Jin with a child, the male employer in his fifties was obviously a little unhappy, "Why are you still taking a child? This is not going to amusement, it may be dangerous." ”
Qian Jin, "My name last night, I didn't say that I can't take children, and I will be responsible for his safety." ”
The man frowned, and the middle of the Yuan Infant who recruited Qian Jin said, "It's not a big problem, we often take this road, and we are very familiar with it." ”
Since Qiu Zhen was brought by Qian Jin, the original plan was to have eleven flying horses, and Qian Jin and Qiu Zhen could only ride one horse together. Qian Jin let Qiu Zhen ride, and he walked leisurely behind, and his speed was naturally no worse than that of the team. In the process of marching, Qian Jin knew the names of the eight mercenaries, and learned that the person in charge of recruitment, Yuan Yingzhong, was called Zhong Yitao, who was a master of making swords, and the captain was called Sun Jingbo, who was a sword-wielder. Zhong Yitao has a hearty personality and is open-minded; Sun Jingbo has a steady personality, has been to many places, and has seen a wide range of the world.
The twelve stopped as they walked, Sun Jingbo and Zhong Yitao talked about the strange things they had seen, and occasionally someone interjected, but the three employers never said a word, just sat quietly on the flying horse. Qian Jin walked at the end of the line, and he didn't know what their expressions were.
After walking through a corner, there is a large forest in front of you, Zhong Yitao said, "Everyone be careful, there are often fierce beasts in the next hundred miles here, although the skill is not high, but also be careful." ”
Sure enough, the group was constantly harassed by all kinds of fierce beasts, vultures, monkeys, orangutans, and pythons in waves, and the highest level was the mid-stage grade of Jindan, but they sent some Neidan to everyone.
After walking this section of the road for less than fifty miles, Zhong Yitao reminded everyone, "The first three hundred miles here are places infested by bandits, and the bandits have a late infancy, so everyone should be careful." ”
Sun Jingbo adjusted the team, and he came to the end of the line, and the other two late Yuan Infant Wang Shengtang and Zhao Tongbin walked at the front of the team. With the adjustment of the team, everyone also began to be vigilant, no one spoke, just paid close attention to the dynamics on both sides of the road. Qian Jin turned clairvoyance and tailwind ears into operation, and on the surface, he was on guard like everyone else.
After walking less than thirty miles, Qian Jin suddenly shouted, "Be careful!" Dense arrows shot from both sides of the road, and the momentum sank. Qian Jin slapped it with a palm, slapping all the arrows on the left side, and cutting them all off with a sword. The group drove Pegasus forward quickly.
As soon as they ran to an open place, everyone saw a flash of white light, and they all entered a formation; Qian Jin took a closer look, it should be a nine-curved and eighteen-bend maze formation, and the opponent could carry out a sneak attack inside. The enemy is dark and I am clear, which is very unfavorable to Qian Jin and his party.
Sun Jingbo shouted, "Everyone be careful, we have entered a formation, who knows the formation?" After waiting for a few minutes, seeing that no one responded, Qian Jin said, "I'll try it, everyone come with me." ”
Qian Jin walked to the front of the team, took everyone around the formation, and was attacked from time to time, but there were four Yuanying who were in charge in the later stage, and the sneak attack was unsuccessful, but a lot of them were killed.
Stopped in one place, turned around and said to everyone, "Come over and attack the formation eye with me in the late Yuan Infant period, and the rest of the people pay attention to the sneak attack." "Sun Jingbo, "Wang Shengtang, you go and cooperate with Qian Jin's attack array, and the rest of the people are on guard." ”
Qian Jin said to Wang Shengtang, "You first attack three feet in front, then three feet forward, then three feet to the right, and continue to attack three feet in front." I'm going to attack in the other direction, and the two of us have to attack at the same time. ”
Qian Jin and Wang Shengtang attacked the first formation eye at the same time, and then attacked the second formation eye. The frequency and intensity of sneak attacks are also increasing, Qian Jin and Wang Jintang don't care about fighting, they are all carried out by the other nine people, and Qiu Zhen is also within their protection.
A slight "click" sound came out, and the formation was broken. The seventeen bandits who were sneaking up on the bandits with weapons and equipment didn't expect the formation to be suddenly broken, and all the attackers appeared in front of them, and they were a little stunned; Sun Jingbo and the others were always on guard against the sneak attack, so they rushed up and wiped out all the seventeen people at once.
