Wandao long distance

Chapter 169

The two parties finally let go and introduced themselves.

Li Qi's introduction is very simple. He claims to be a sorcerer. He came across a chance encounter and was born in the Great Deer Kingdom. The Taoist cultivator beside him is Shen Shuibi, who is Li Qi's good friend. To behead two demon heads.

As for the master's inheritance, he directly skipped it, and didn't say whether he had it, as long as he didn't say it, it wouldn't be a lie.

And Zhang Lan also began to introduce herself.

Only then did Li Qi know what Zhang Lan was going through.

The name of this unremarkable old man is Zhang Lan, and he is a sword master in Zhengjian Palace.

The so-called sword master is a branch of Zhengjian Palace.

At the beginning, the Lord of Zhengjian Palace spent a lot of money to hire a refiner to forge 360 ​​five Zhoutian and Xingxing swords, all of which were eighth rank according to the number of Zhoutian, and then set up the post of sword master.

Any disciple who has cultivated to the eighth rank and is unwilling to stay in the sect to take up a management position can apply for the position of a sword master by himself. After passing many assessments, he will be able to get one of the swords and learn a formation technique.

The sword master usually travels abroad, acts chivalrously, spreads the deeds of Zhengjian Palace, and is also responsible for collecting some talented disciples to return to the mountain. He is mainly responsible for the face of Zhengjian Palace outside and handles some external affairs.

After all, many foreign affairs are not that simple.

Although the disciples also talked about traveling in the mountains, after all, their cultivation base is still shallow and they cannot handle many important matters.

And the other eight ranks have their own responsibilities, and they all take on some positions in the sect, so it is not easy to leave their posts to handle affairs.

It is even more difficult to move at the upper level.

Therefore, there is a job as a sword master, who can receive the sword in the door to prove his identity, and can also communicate with each other, and travel full-time outside, with a lot of freedom.

As a sword master, Zhang Lan has always been a man of urgency and righteousness. This time, he also went to Tuntian Demon's Nest to slay demons, but he also encountered many strange things on the way. But they are still in place, and only a few troops are honestly helping to evacuate.

So he temporarily stopped going to the Demon's Nest to help these people evacuate, and the White Rhinoceros Army was already the third army he helped.

Hearing this, Li Qi was full of doubts, he asked: "Brother Zhang, is this a common phenomenon?"

"What? Oh, you mean these relocated people? Yes, that's right. As far as I know, the entire Bailin Kingdom, near the Tuntian Demon's Nest, seems to be like this. I'm also very surprised." Zhang Lan replied .

"Something's wrong, what about their chief general? I just read that the generals of an army should have rank eight, but I haven't seen the chief general here. An army without a general is like a group of dragons without a leader. How can this be possible?" Li Qi wondered asked.

Zhang Lan explained to Li Qi: "As far as I know, the chief general of the White Rhinoceros Army is temporarily leaving to go to the capital to report on his duties. He just ordered these soldiers to assist in the evacuation of the people before he left. I see that they are no more than 6000 people and they want to move. It is too difficult for more than [-] people, so they come to help, alas, it is a pity that so many good men died in this battle, and now there are only more than [-] people left."

"It's weird, it's really weird, the general's debriefing will arrange this kind of thing in advance?" Li Qi frowned, all of this is too unreasonable, but now there are not enough clues, and he can't tell the reason.

"I also know it's weird, but no matter what the reason is, you can't leave the people alone. Brother Li, why don't we join forces for a while, and the three of us will escort these more than [-] people back to a safe place, and then go to swallow the sky demon together Chao Tantan? Sister Shen, what do you think?" Zhang Lan looked at Shen Shuibi and asked.

From Zhang Lan's point of view, although Li Qi's strength is not weak, he seems to be agile and flexible, and what he does is even more admirable, but after all, he is a ninth rank. A woman who was in a daze from beginning to end.

After all, she is the eighth grade.

When Shen Shuibi was asked, she was at a loss for a while, she panicked for a moment, then pointed to Li Qi: "You ask him, I will follow him."

After speaking, she quickly hid behind Li Qi.

Shen Shuibi, her social fear is very serious.

Li Qi had already experienced this point.

Zhang Lan looked stunned and a little surprised.

This woman is a dignified eighth rank, she was thought to be equal to Li Qiping before, why now, she seems to be headed by Li Qiping?
This guy named Li Qi, what's his background?In his self-introduction, he didn't say that he was from a major sect.

Even if it is a big sect, the guardians sent down must be seniors, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be the leader.

It doesn't look like a husband and wife, this Li Qi has no intimacy with this Miss Shen, even his words and deeds are quite restrained, there is absolutely no misconduct, and he is very polite.

On the other hand, Miss Shen, often has some natural intimacy with Li Qi, such as helping him brush his clothes, supporting him without avoiding physical contact, or occasionally glancing at him, it's very natural, as if she's used to it Same.

Shouldn't this be...

Is it Miss Shen who is going after her backwards?

This Li Qi has two brushes.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lan's eyes towards Li Qi suddenly changed.

Previously, he was awed by Li Qi's ability to preside over the sacrificial ceremony and his righteous deeds, so he was willing to be called a brother of the same generation.

But now, the way he looked at Li Qi was even more respectful.

Li Qi felt a chill behind his back, how did Zhang Lan's eyes become so... Uh, how should I describe it?
If I had to find an adjective, it would probably be called reverence?
What do you have to respect yourself?

Li Qi couldn't figure it out, so he coughed dryly and changed the subject: "Ahem, brother Zhang's words are justified, then I will hold another sacrifice to drive away the sickness here, and make these people's health better, and we will set off tomorrow. "

Anyway, there was a lot of time, Li Qi didn't care about delaying the time, at most half a month.

He has been running here from Green Mountain Country for half a year, half a month, and there is no problem.

He is already a practitioner, his life expectancy is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and the concept of time has to be gradually developed step by step.

"You can still offer sacrifices to get rid of sickness? It's amazing. I can't compare to someone who can only fight like this." Zhang Lan praised.

Zhengjian Palace is a school of martial arts, and those who practice are all martial arts. Naturally, Zhang Lan is also the eighth grade of martial arts, but he seems to have also practiced some other methods.

After hearing this, Li Qi expressed the doubts in his heart: "By the way, speaking of this, Brother Zhang, I think you seem to be practicing martial arts, and there are really not many fancy methods, but I think the ones you used earlier But it is Taiyang Lung Meridian Gengjin Sword Qi, which is clearly a Taoist method, the sword in your sword box should be the Zhoutian Xingchen sword, why didn't you use it in the battle before?"

If Zhang Lan is in martial arts, it means that he has never shown his strength before, and he still has reservations, and he didn't even draw a sword. What's the meaning of this?
Zhang Lan laughed loudly when he heard this, and explained to Li Qi: "Haha! Brother Li, you don't understand this, right? From the very beginning, I tried my best. Those monsters will definitely not fall into the trap, and they will definitely take good precautions."

"I use my concurrent Taoism methods to make them misjudge my strength. At the critical moment, I use martial arts cultivation as my close body and use my sword. This is my chance of survival. I kill one first, and then fight off the other. , According to my estimation, I have a [-]% chance of counter-killing and saving more than [-] people, and I am [-]% sure that I will die with them both." Zhang Lan raised his head confidently, and said so.

Li Qi suddenly realized.

Although the other party is reckless, it is impossible for him to be completely brainless if he can cultivate to the eighth rank. It turned out that he had already thought about it before making the move.

However, Zhang Lan immediately added: "But this time I still rely on Brother Li. Alas, my martial arts spirit is not enough, and I didn't realize that there were still people sweeping back. If it wasn't for my brother, you would have discovered it in advance. There is a third one." Well, I'm afraid it will really fall this time."

Speaking of this, Zhang Lan also asked curiously: "What's the matter with you, brother? Ninth-rank can detect the concealment method of eight-rank monsters. How did you do it?"

"Little brother, I have a dao charm in my body, and I am good at observing. As long as there is a trace, it will definitely not escape my eyes." Li Qize replied truthfully.

"I see." Zhang Lan received a satisfactory answer, so she stopped asking questions, but stepped back a little, preparing to end the conversation, and began to meditate.

However, Li Qi didn't ask a question, so he finally asked: "Brother, before you rest, can you answer one more question for me, you sword masters have been walking outside all year round, and you still hold treasures in your hands, in case you lose them The sword, for example, if it is stolen, or if you simply die, what should you do with the sword?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lan laughed as if he had heard some joke: "There is nothing to worry about. If there is an accident with the sword master outside, the sword will naturally fly back to the mountain gate."

"Not only will I fly back, but I will also record the surrounding situation before I leave. After returning, the mountain gate will take care of it myself. It is very convenient, and I am not afraid of death. Someone must have revenge!"

His tone was very bachelor, Li Qi was at a loss for words when he heard it, he was speechless.

"No one can stop it?" Li Qi asked again.

Zhang Lan replied: "If you want to stop the self-return of the Zhou Tian Xingchen sword, you need at least the sixth rank. If the sixth rank is able to attack me with an eighth rank, isn't that a big profit? Besides, with a radius of [-] miles, each six There are a lot of products, and when the time comes, we will come to each door and ask them one by one, and we can always find them.”

Well, Li Qi understood the way of Zhengjian Palace.

This is indeed a martial arts sect...

How much is a little mental illness.

The two ended their conversation temporarily, Zhang Lan went to heal his wounds, while Li Qi set up the altar all night.

What he is going to arrange this time is a sacrifice to get rid of the sickness, and one person is enough.

First place wine and food, then blow horns and gongs, and use colorful flowers and medicinal materials to form garlands.

Then order the sergeants, when the people form the camp, they also follow the ring to form the camp and rest, and use the garland to symbolize the human ring.

Then he sacrificed the golden energy, cut off his arm, and painted nine talismans with blood, eight of which were placed on all sides of the garland, and one in the center of the garland.

Bury the talismans on the ground and cover them with soil, each two feet five inches deep.

The ceremony is done.

Medicinal materials and the spirit of hundreds of flowers are clear.

The blood of a witch is also a god.

The two are complemented by spells, with a garland like a human ring, linked together by means of witchcraft, and resonated with the fresh air of flowers and the blood energy of witches. In the ring, drive away the original sickness.

The blood energy of the witch turned into Li Qi's phantom body, like a god general, guarding the eight directions and the center to prevent the recurrence of sickness.

In this way, the effect of group healing is achieved.

If the garland and the phantom body of blood energy in this process are replaced with other things, such as various types of highly poisonous medicinal materials, demon blood, then what is cast in this way is a curse that can be used to kill more than ten people. million people.

Of course, whether it is cursing or getting rid of sickness, Wu Ji himself needs to bear all the consumption and consequences, which is actually not easy.

After Li Qi finished, he was too tired, so he simply lay down on the ground and went to sleep.

Sleep is the best way to recover.

Of course it is okay to not sleep, but it is like a small world without night, which will only prevent the guard energy from entering the yin.

If Wei Qi cannot enter Yin, but stays in Yang, Yin Qi will be deficient, disturbed all day long, the seven emotions will be agitated, and the mind will be restless.

Therefore, it is very important to keep sleeping. The so-called "the spirit resides in the heart", because of this reason, anyone who does not sleep will definitely have side effects.

The higher the cultivation level, the stronger the small world of the human body, so it is natural to be able to last longer without sleeping, but it is still necessary to sleep, otherwise it will have a negative impact on the small world of the human body.

Deep sleep and waking up are the changes of yin and yang, which coincide with the transformation of the outside world. It is not impossible to forcibly reverse it, but it is not necessary.

Everyone went to rest. After the sergeants arranged for all the civilians to sleep, it was very late at night.

In the middle of the night, only Shen Shuibi didn't rest. She was holding a silver-haired mouse in her hand, which was the eighth-rank Luenzhen that she had killed.

Although it is the strongest of the three eighth ranks, it is really not enough in front of Shen Shuibi.

"Rat Soil Tomb..." Shen Shuibi tilted her head and recognized the thing's heels.

The so-called rat soil grave is a special kind of alien animal cluster.

There is a record in "Records of the Western Regions", which says: In the middle of the sand moraine, there is a pile of mounds. , then the group of rats will follow.

In the past, there were wars between two countries, and a large country led hundreds of thousands of people to conquer the border towns and stationed troops on the side of Shufen.

Another small country has only tens of thousands of soldiers, but it is invincible, but it has always known that there are strange rats in the sand and moraine, so it treats it with God.

Within a few days of the battle, the small country was completely destroyed by siege. There was no one to ask for help.

That night, the little king dreamed of a rat and said: "If you want to help each other, I wish you can control the army as soon as possible. Once we fight together, we will surely win."

The little king knew that there was spiritual protection, so he organized his army and horses, ordered the soldiers to act without knowing it, and drove to cover up the attack.

The big country also heard that it was only when the battle was overjoyed, Fang wanted to ride and be armored, but when he went out to fight, he suddenly found that the saddle, the clothes, the bowstring, the armor, and all the belts were eaten by rats.

The enemy soldiers came, but they were unarmed, so they had to be bound face to face and slaughtered, so the small country killed its generals and captured its soldiers.

The big country is shocked, thinking that it is blessed by the gods.

The little king was grateful for the kindness of the rat, built a shrine and set up a sacrifice, and obeyed the respect of the world, which is very rare. Therefore, in this country, from the king to the common people, they practice sacrifices in order to seek blessings. To pay homage, to pay homage, to pray for blessings, or to wear clothes, bows and arrows, or to eat food with fragrant flowers, is also a gesture of sincerity and benefits.If there is no sacrificial offering, there will be catastrophe.

"This swarm of alien beasts should be found in the western Buddhist kingdom. It's farther west than Wushen Mountain...how could it appear in the Baiyue area?" Shen Shuibi was a little puzzled.

Wushen Mountain is only in the southwest of the world, but the Buddhist country is due west, the extreme west of the world.

"Forget it, it might have migrated here... Never mind." She put the silver-haired mouse into the mustard bag.

This thing is still useful to Li Qi.
