Chapter 143
"I didn't expect to encounter a creature like the Blood Demon. Fortunately, my strength is not weak. If I were an ordinary Taoist, I would probably be dead today."

Qin Jian sighed and closed his fist.

The blood demon's strength is even more powerful and weird than rumored.

Especially the sword-handling technique is even more unpredictable.

If it were not me today, but an ordinary Taoist practitioner, I would probably not know how to resist it at all.

"With the appearance of the Blood Demon, the future of Huangliang County will inevitably become even more unstable."

Qin Jian sighed again.

As a Taoist practitioner in Huangliang County, he had to care about the environment of Huangliang County, but now that the Blood Demon appears, the security situation in Huangliang County will be greatly affected.

It's okay for Taoist people like him, but it's very difficult for ordinary people.

He knelt down and searched for the blood demon's body.

Not long after, Qin Jian straightened up with a strange look on his face, and there was another item in his hand.

It was a small leather bag, which functioned as a wallet in later generations.

Qin Jian's eyes suddenly lit up as he opened the leather bag casually.

There were actually two underworld treasures in the leather bag.

One is a command arrow, the other is a corner of the official seal.

There was nothing unusual about the arrow, but the official seal was obviously different from what Qin Jian had seen before. The brilliance inside it was obviously deeper and the color was more crystal clear.

"Is it new energy?"

Staring at the corner of the official seal, Qin Jian looked thoughtful.

This official seal was so unusual that he felt that it was fundamentally different from the underworld treasures he had come into contact with before.

Especially the energy inside it may be different from what I have absorbed before.

"Try to absorb it first."

Qin Jian made a decision and began to try to absorb it in order to distinguish the difference between the energy in the official seal and what he had absorbed before.

Pick up the command arrow and absorb it first.

The energy was absorbed into the body, and the value of the energy points on the training panel immediately became nine points.

Nine points is a little more than eight points, which means that there are enough energy points to improve the realm.

But Qin Jian did not improve immediately. Instead, he picked up the official seal and continued to absorb it.

Energy enters the body.

On the training panel, energy poured in again.

However, the next moment, Qin Jian couldn't help but look at the cultivation panel with a strange expression.

On the training panel, the value of energy points has not increased, it is still nine points.

However, next to these nine points, another kind of energy suddenly appeared.

This new energy is obviously different from the original energy, and is darker in color.

The original nine-point energy was pure white, but now this new energy is white with gray, giving it a more concentrated look.

In addition, the amount of energy is less than a little bit. In Qin Jian's opinion, it is only about one-tenth of a point at most.

"Another energy? Or a different advanced level of the same energy?"

Qin Jian's thoughts turned.

He kept observing the new energy in the training panel.

"This new energy should also be used for upgrading, right? It's a pity that there are too few, otherwise we can do some experiments."

Qin Jian sighed.

Although he gained new energy, the amount of this new energy was too small for him to conduct experiments.

Otherwise, Qin Jian would test it immediately.

"Could it be the energy used in the body-forging period? The cultivation panel, the energy required for upgrading in the awakening period and the body-forging period is different? Is this new energy suitable for use in the body-forging period?"

"After reaching the body-forging stage, if you want to improve your realm, do you have to use this new energy?"

With a flash of inspiration, Qin Jian thought of another possibility.

But he's not sure how likely that is.

"Perhaps this new energy is some kind of super energy that can be used to improve certain special skills."

"Or can we upgrade on the original basis to reach a transcendent level and break through the height of the technique itself?"

Ideas kept popping up, and Qin Jian speculated on various possibilities.

But eventually, after a while, he shook his head slightly.

It is too early to speculate on these now. After all, the new energy is not enough. Even if he wants to test it, he cannot do it.

Therefore, there is no point in guessing these things now. When you get enough new energy in the future and test it, you will naturally know the function of this new energy.

Focusing his spirit on the old energy, Qin Jian chose to improve his realm.

The energy points decreased, and a surge of energy instantly rushed into Qin Jian's body.

At the same time, in his body, the mana began to rise rapidly, a strange feeling appeared, and countless memories poured into his brain...

Huangliang County, which had been cloudy for nearly half a month, suddenly had a sunny day, but the morning air was still a bit cold.

Song Laoshi rolled over and got up from the bed, rubbing his eyes with both hands.

When he saw the light through the window, his mood suddenly improved a lot. Even though he was over 40 years old, he jumped out of bed excitedly.

It's finally a good day, business must be very good today.

Shouting on his shoes, he went to open the door and get ready for business while shouting loudly to his son who was sleeping next door, "Xiao Rou, wake up."

"Got it, Dad."

The energetic voice of his son Song Xiaorou came from next door.

Soon, a strong young man of sixteen or seventeen years old came out from next door and helped Song Laoshi open the door of the store while getting dressed.

The father and son opened a grocery store. Due to the convenient location, they could still earn enough food and clothing for them.

However, these days, there is a war and chaos, and every family is short of food and clothing, so the business of the grocery store is naturally not much better.

The Song family and his son relied on this business to make ends meet.

"father!"

Song Xiaorou's voice suddenly changed and he stared straight at the street.

Song Laoshi realized something when he heard the sound, and quickly turned his head to look towards the street.

Liu Changping from the Jingxie Society was walking slowly with two of his men, and the target was clearly his grocery store, Song Laoshi.

"We're here to collect protection money as soon as we open the door. Dad, let's close it. We don't make enough money to pay tribute to them."

Song Xiaorou complained softly and glanced at the tall Liu Changping with hatred.

The Jingxie Society's exploitation was so ruthless. Not only did they collect protection fees every day, but from time to time people came to eat and take away the autumn wind, which made it impossible for their grocery store to make any money.

But due to the power of the Jingxie Society, the father and son dared not speak out in anger.

After hearing this, Song Laoshi glanced at his son with a wry smile, his face full of helplessness for a moment.

My son is still too young and not deeply involved in the world. "Say something negative!"

After giving his son a lesson, Song Laoshi hurriedly walked out the door.

"Good morning, Mr. Liu!"

On the street at the door, Song Laoshi's waist almost bent to ninety degrees, facing Liu Changping with a smile.

"Old Song, do you know why I came?"

Liu Changping's chin was facing Song Laoshi, without even glancing at him from the corner of his eyes, looking completely domineering.

"I know, hehe, I know, I have already prepared it for Mr. Liu."

Song Laoshi was angry but did not dare to say anything about Liu Changping's arrogance. He continued to smile and took out a stack of cents from his pocket and respectfully presented it to Liu Changping with both hands.

Liu Changping raised his chin at the man next to him, and the man reached out and took the money from Song Laoshi's hand.

However, Liu Changping, who received the protection money, did not leave immediately. Instead, after turning his head to look at the shelves in Song Laoshi's grocery store, he walked directly into the grocery store.

Seeing this scene, Song Laoshi secretly complained and could only follow Liu Changping in.

Liu Changping walked into the grocery store, scanned the shelves, and finally brought down a box of foreign cigarettes and a box of matches.

He lit a cigarette with a match and smoked it, then put the remaining matches and cigarettes into his pocket.

Seeing this, Song Laoshi's mouth twitched.

Just this box of foreign cigarettes and a box of matches are worth more than one yuan.

However, he still dared not speak out in anger, and he was content to be able to send Liu Changping away with this box of foreign cigarettes and matches.

Liu Changping, who put away his cigarettes and matches, was indeed planning to leave.

But before leaving, his eyes suddenly glanced at the shelves of the grocery store, as if he wanted to see if Song Laoshi had any new goods.

However, his gaze soon stopped on a half-meter-high vase with lotus prints on its belly.

Liu Changping's eyes shone.

This vase, with a faint glow of treasure, is obviously a Taoist treasure.

"Oops!"

Seeing the other person's eyes resting on the vase, Song Laoshi's heart sank suddenly.

Based on his understanding of Liu Changping, he naturally knew that Liu Changping was interested in this vase of his own.

If this vase was just an ordinary vase, that would be fine. In order to settle the matter, he would definitely give the vase to Liu Changping.

But this vase is a relic left by his ancestors, and it is said that it involves the fate of the Song family.

Once you give it away, the Song family will be ruined.

So how could Song Laoshi be willing to give the vase to Liu Changping?
"Old Song, hehe, your vase is pretty good!"

Liu Changping looked greedily at the vases on the shelf.

As a member of the Jingxie Society, he often comes into contact with various heretics. This person has some eyesight, so he can tell that this vase is extraordinary at a glance.

In particular, this vase actually exudes an auspicious light, with a faint auspicious energy coming out.

These all indicate that this vase is an auspicious thing.

If you can bring this vase to your home and place it in the living room, it will definitely bring blessings to your family.

Liu Changping was tempted.

"Haha, that's good. Mr. Liu, I almost forgot. I still have some filial piety on hand. Mr. Liu, please accept it."

Song Laoshi responded with a dry smile. As he spoke, he took out three cash coins and stuffed them into Liu Changping's hand.

Three coins appeared in the ocean, which was many days' income. This time it was considered a big loss for him.

But as long as Liu Changping can be dismissed and he doesn't have the idea of ​​​​his own vase, it will be worth it.

However, when Liu Changping received the message, his face sank on the spot.

Instead of giving me a vase, I would give you three coins and send them away to the beggar.

"Song Laoshi, how dare you steal treasures from the Jingxie Society!"

Now that Dayang had put it in his pocket, Liu Changping looked at Song Laoshi with a sullen face and an angry expression.

"It's unfair, Mr. Liu, how dare a villain steal treasures?"

Song Laoshi, who was frightened by Liu Changping's sudden change of face, was inexplicably surprised and hurriedly shouted that he was wronged.

"The physical evidence is here, Song Laoshi, you still dare to quibble, brothers, catch him and take him away."

Liu Changping reached out and took the vase off the shelf, while shouting orders to his subordinates.

So, the two followers worked together, quickly captured Song Laoshi and Song Xiaorou, and tied them up.

"It's unjust, Mr. Liu, the villain is unjust!"

Song Laoshi, who was arrested, shouted that he was wronged.

But Liu Changping didn't allow him to distinguish. He held the vase with one hand, waved the other hand, and ordered loudly, "Catch him back, and the younger one too, and interrogate him carefully. If you dare to steal anything from Jingxie Society, you will be alive." Impatient."

"No, Master Liu, the villain didn't steal, the villain was wronged."

Song Laoshi, who was frightened and anxious, kept complaining.

But the greedy Liu Changping didn't care about this. As long as he secretly killed both father and son, the vase would naturally be his.

Thinking of this, Liu Changping smiled proudly, and waved his hand, "Take them back, take them all back, and fight hard when you go back, fight slowly, and sooner or later you will get them. Those lowly mud-legged people dare to steal things from our Jingxie Association, You really don’t know how to live or die!”

The two men also laughed and escorted the Song family and his son towards Jingxie Club.

Based on their understanding of Liu Changping, they knew that Song Laoshi and his son would definitely not survive this time.

As his subordinates, Liu Changping ate meat, so they could at least drink soup.

Although they don't have a share of vases or anything like that, Song Laoshi still has a grocery store after all.

Some of the goods in the grocery store will always be distributed to them, right?

Liu Changping was in front, leading two of his men to escort the Song family and his son to Jingxiehui.

Suddenly, Liu Changping, who was walking at the front, seemed to feel something and turned his head uneasily to look behind him.

As a result, just as he turned his head, before he could turn his head, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, followed by a feeling of pain, and the feeling of burning mana.

Then, his vision suddenly began to change, and he felt that his eyes were looking towards the sky involuntarily.

He saw the blue sky.

Immediately afterwards, in his ears, he heard the screams of two men on the verge of death, and heard what sounded like the sound of corpses being thrown to the ground.

Finally, with a bang, his head fell to the ground and rolled several meters away.

At this time, Liu Changping's eyes were still open, so he could clearly see the scene nearby.

And just when his face was facing behind his body, his eyes happened to see a young man who was less than 20 years old but clean and tidy beside the Song family. His eyes were sharp and he was holding a mahogany sword in his hand. In his temperament, there is an indifference that would repel people thousands of miles away.

Beside him, at his feet, were three corpses lying in confusion, two of them were his men, and the other one looked like he was himself.

Liu Changping was full of fear, and his eyes finally focused on the strange young man.

Who is this person?
Full of confusion and fear, Liu Changping completely lost consciousness.
