It’s too difficult to cultivate immortality, so I used a strange beast to clone myself into a Taoist

Chapter 70 Can you survive?
  Soldiers are valuable and quick.

Now that Li Qinglin had made up his mind to completely leave the palace, he didn't hesitate at all.

He simply rented a fast horse. Although it was his first time riding a horse, he had already mastered the herb-collecting stance. He had a strong waist and hips and stable legs, and he quickly found the trick to riding a horse.

Then he rode Juechen and headed towards the royal residence.

Half a day later,
  The clear sound of the horse's hoof bit came. In front of the palace gate, several gatekeepers watched as a strong man jumped out from the horseback, full of evil aura and eyes like copper bells.

Their hearts jumped with fear, and they all felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Huh? Li Qinglin, a tenant servant?"

After verifying the identity token, several people looked solemnly at the snake meat packed in a sack on Li Qinglin's back, and faintly noticed an oppressive feeling that was hard to breathe and a strong smell of blood.

Did he really succeed in slaying the demon?

When several people learned the inside story, they had an unbelievable thought in their hearts.

Li Qinglin crossed the threshold and strode towards the outer courtyard.

First, he went back to the yard and took off his wrappings and weapons, leaving only the pair of countermeasure wristbands. Then, without even changing his clothes, he found Guan Wang Chang with a faint smell of blood and an aura of bravery.

Wang Chang had already learned the news about Li Qinglin and others slaying the demon. He looked neither angry nor happy. He was about to say something decent like "It's been hard work" and "But we still need to work hard".

Suddenly hearing that Li Qinglin wanted to redeem his life contract and break away from the palace, his expression changed and his tone involuntarily became stern.
  "You are so brave..."

The words stopped suddenly, and Wang Chang suddenly realized that the young man in front of him had become a martial artist.

Then the voice became slightly quieter.

"Have you thought clearly? Once this matter is reported to grandpa and eldest lady, there will be no room for change!"

"Please also ask the Wang Guanshi to report this."

Li Qinglin stood upright, neither shy nor impatient.

Wang Chang looked a little gloomy, but he still took Li Qinglin to the inner house and asked him to wait in a side room.

After a while, Grandpa Wang and Madam Jia walked into the side room one after the other.

Finally, there followed a middle-aged man with an unattractive appearance, dressed in black and brocade. He was tall and upright. Standing there quietly, one could feel a cold and chilling aura.

But the tense atmosphere that Li Qinglin expected did not appear.

Instead, Grandpa Wang held Li Qinglin's hand with a smile, expressed concern and condolences, and talked about everyday things.

With a smile on her face, Mrs. Jia called the maid to serve tea, and then brought a wooden tray.

On the wooden plate, twelve taels of silver and a book of inferior martial arts were quietly placed.

"You are truly a young hero, a dragon and a phoenix among men. Qinglin, right? I once heard Meng'er talk about you, praising you for your firm mind and your success in the future."

Grandpa Wang waved, and a maid came over with a tray in both hands.

"This is a gift from my Wang family to congratulate Qinglin on his breakthrough as a martial artist. From now on, we will be a family."

"Grandpa, I heard that you and the maid next to the third lady, Miao Miao, are very close. As long as you open the mouth, I will be your matchmaker!"

Grandpa Wang’s face was filled with a warm smile.

"Grandpa Wang, I think you misunderstood."

Li Qinglin chose to ignore these sugar-coated bullets and said directly,

"I, Li, am here today to redeem my life contract and bid farewell to the palace. Please ask Grandpa Wang... to give me a price."

The smile on Grandpa Wang's face melted away bit by bit, and he stared at Li Qinglin expressionlessly for a long time.

But Li Qinglin's expression remained unchanged, calm and calm.

Finally, Grandpa Wang slowly sat up straight, leaned forward, and his tone became calmer,

"In that case, let's open the sky and speak openly. You have been in my royal residence for many years, and your daily food and clothing expenses, Master Ma also taught you the art of raising autumn insects, and you get a discount for attending the school to learn martial arts...

Adding up these expenses and doubling the redemption value will cost at least seventy taels of silver.

Moreover, I promise you a reward for this demon slaying. I'm sorry that I can't give out the full amount. The specific amount will be discussed in the future and we will inform you separately. "

Seventy taels?
  Even though Li Qinglin had expected it, his heart suddenly sank when he heard the price.

Seventy taels of silver can buy an ordinary house in the outer city.

If you add some more silver taels, you can buy a two-entry courtyard with more than 100 taels.

Double the redemption value, Grandpa Wang really topped it up!
  Li Qinglin was not surprised that the reward for slaying the demon this time was withheld.

Just because the moment he offered to redeem himself and leave the house, he became a complete outsider.

Not even as good as an external martial artist.

Grandpa Wang naturally had no idea of ​​mercy.

In business, every penny has to be broken.

Li Qinglin took out a fifty-tael silver note and twelve taels of broken silver from his body.

"This time I went to Zhuoguang Mountain to slay a demon, and the demon obtained fifty kilograms of snake meat. The flesh and blood of such demonic beasts are of great benefit to martial artists. I also ask Grandpa Wang to send someone to my yard to check the quality and estimate the price. .”

Li Qinglin said.

Grandpa Wang had no expression on his face and motioned for a servant to leave.

After a while, the man turned back and whispered a few words in Grandpa Wang's ear.

Grandpa Wang said,
  "The snake meat of the silver-patterned python is well preserved. I bought it at the market price of six pounds per catty. Do you want to sell it all, or just deduct the difference?"

"Just deduct the difference."

"Then take thirteen catties and three taels, and I'll erase the fraction." "Thank you, Grandpa Wang."

"Come here and get Li Qinglin's life deed and seal."

After a moment, Li Qinglin reached out to take the sealed life deed. His hands were trembling slightly, and he felt that this thin piece of paper was actually heavier than a decapitation knife.

He carefully collected the life contract close to his body, stood up, clasped his fists in his hands, and bowed to Grandpa Wang and Mrs. Jia,
  "Thank you very much for the royal family's care and training in recent years. Li will take his leave."

Speaking of which, except for Wang Bapi, the palace actually did not deliberately deduct the tenants from the outer courtyard to feel sorry for them.

Instead, work according to the rules. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished.

Therefore, Li Qinglin did not have much resentment towards the palace.

It's probably like leaving the crazy 007 Niu Ma Company where he worked overtime.

Seeing Li Qinglin's leaving figure at this time, Grandpa Wang suddenly said,

"I almost forgot, my little friend has just become a martial artist, so I think there will be a lot of confusion and confusion."

"It's better than this..."

Grandpa Wang turned his head and said to the black brocade man who had been standing quietly in front of the painting screen in the side room,
  "Let Master Zhao send it to you and help you clear up your doubts."

coming!

When Li Qinglin heard this, he felt a sense of relief as if his boots had landed.

In the past twenty years, there was no precedent for a tenant servant to leave the palace after becoming a martial artist, and I am afraid it happened here.

The feeling that martial artist Zhao gave Li Qinglin was even worse than that of Wen Tiexin, the bone-penetrating martial artist.

If we follow common sense, how can a warrior who has just started to tighten his membranes withstand the "sending" of a bone-penetrating warrior?
  He was scratched and bruised, and he was bedridden as soon as he was taken away.

But unexpectedly, I met Li Qinglin.

Li Qinglin and Zhao Wushi walked out of the side courtyard one after another.

After a few breaths,
  Outside the side room, a burly man with curly hair ran hurriedly.

"father!"

Wang Meng rushed into the house, but did not see Li Qinglin.

There is no sign of Master Zhao!

He suddenly understood something and his face became anxious.

"What are you doing here!"

When Grandpa Wang saw Wang Meng, his face darkened.
  "But your wings are hardened. Do you want to help that outsider?"

"Stand still, don't run around, wait for Master Zhao to come back!"

Facing the majesty of Mr. Wang, his stern eyes seemed to see through all of Wang Meng's thoughts.

Wang Meng clenched his fists, and his fingers seemed to be inserted into his palms. It hurt so much that he stood there without saying a word.

boom,
  boom,
  boom!
  Not far away, there seemed to be a dull sound of strong collision.

Accompanied by the sound of the bluestone floor cracking.

A ferocious, cruel and merciless aura spread faintly.

Seeing this, Grandpa Wang had a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

"Martial Master Zhao's skills have become superb again. In time, with the support of my palace, he will definitely become a master of marrow refining! I have never been unable to touch the roundness of the five internal organs."

When Jia heard this, she smiled obediently and said,
  "The phoenix tree has its own phoenix, and the sea can accommodate hundreds of rivers. With a big tree like my palace, why worry about not being able to recruit talents? Then Li Qinglin, after all, comes from a humble background and is short-sighted, so it is difficult to become a great person!"

As he spoke, Jia's eyes looked at Wang Meng with a hint of indifference, as if there was something in his words.

After half a cup of tea.

A figure walked slowly back to the side room.

Seeing Martial Master Zhao, Grandpa Wang flicked his beard, picked up the tea, took a sip, and asked easily,

"How much force did Master Zhao use? I heard that Li Qinglin is born with brute strength. I think he can stand it. Just let him lie down for a few months."

Martial Master Zhao did not speak, but moved step by step towards a bow chair.

"Wait until he is strong again, and then test his voice. If he is stubborn, he will have to lie down. Alas..."

Grandpa Wang sighed hypocritically, looked at Martial Master Zhao, and asked a little strangely,

"Huh? Why doesn't Master Zhao speak?"

Martial Master Zhao raised his head, his tightly pursed mouth squirming and trembling...

"Does Master Zhao have any unspeakable secrets?" Grandpa Wang continued to ask.

Martial Master Zhao closed his lips and opened them slightly, finally...

Pfft!

A large piece of blood mist was sprayed out and splashed onto the floor and table several feet away!

He stood up and fell down, rolling his eyes upwards, and finally said weakly,

"That boy is so energetic!"

"Don't touch me! Let me lie down..."
