Chapter 1 Cultivation Strange Price

The morning market is bustling with people crowding each other, and even the dense rain cannot stop the vendors Shout out with a unique singing voice.

Suddenly, the crowd fell silent, their eyes filled with fear looking towards somewhere.

Two gloomy yamen carried the corpse wrapped in linen on a wooden board and walked out of the alley, blood dripping along the wooden board on the bluestone bricks.

The crowd whispered.

“He died again?”

“It’s too bad.”

“I’m afraid this is the third time this month…”

“Don’t look, don’t look.”

Seeing this, the people scattered and left, and even the stalls hurriedly packed their things, as if they were avoiding the god of plague.

The two yamen moved the corpse to a more open place as if no one was there.

The older yamen was wearing black clothed, with a thin body and slightly sunken eyes, giving people a feeling of being overworked.

His cuffs are embroidered with “Prefecture Servant”, and a two-foot water and fire stick is tied around his waist.

Although the yamen is in the government, they are only the servants who drive the yamen to run. The fire and water sticks are only used for body protection.

Another young yamen, thirteen-fourteen years old, was wearing black clothed that did not fit well and did not have the words “Prefecture Servant”.

This is the White Cloth Servant, who often works under the official yamen and takes several years to be promoted.

They put down the body.

The leading yamen could not help coughing because he was carrying heavy objects, and it took a few breaths to stop.

White Cloth Servant asked with concern: “Brother Qing, are you alright?”

The yamen replied in a hoarse and low voice: “It’s okay if you’re sick, Little Wu, you are here. Look, I’m going to the store.”

“Brother Qing…”

Little Wu looked very frightened, his legs were shaking a little, and his voice was even more delicate like a mosquito gnats.

“Don’t worry, go and come back.”

The yamen named Ren Qing patted Little Wu’s shoulder and walked quickly towards the alley.

His footsteps were slightly vain, and his breathing became heavier, showing that his heart was by no means as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Ren Qing walked into the depths of the alley, and the smell of blood came out, so strong that it made people sick to the stomach.

The dilapidated bookstore came into view, and there were two White Cloth Servants in their twenties standing at the door. They couldn’t help but relax when they saw Ren Qing.

“officer.”

Ren Qing ordered nodded to the two of them, and then said: “If you want to vomit, then go into the house and pack up, you must finish it as soon as possible, you always Don’t want to stay here, do you?”

“Okay, officer…”

Li Mian and Li Heng are biological brothers. There was nothing to follow, so it was transferred to Ren Qing.

Little Wu took the initiative to defect from other places. He and Ren Qing’s parents are from the same hometown.

Li Family brother came to the corner of the alley, leaned against the wall and retched.

Ren Qing resisted his nausea, on the one hand, he didn’t want his White Cloth Servant to look down on him, on the other hand, he was afraid that physique would be too weak to faint.

He took a deep breath and opened the wooden door of the bookstore.

I saw that the room was covered with pieces of flesh and blood, and the bookshelves were crooked. There were no books on them, and it looked unusually empty.

The corpse of the shopkeeper who was moved out before was originally kneeling behind the door.

Hands are spread out, palms with forcibly gouged eyes.

This is still handled by the yamen, and it is hard to imagine what the scene was before.

Ren Qing is in charge of Tan Street in the Western District of Sanxiang, and belongs to the fireman in the yamen.

His duty is to burn the corpse and the accessories of the deceased, so it stands to reason that he will not encounter any danger.

But like the shopkeeper in the bookstore, everyone with discernment knows violent death.

A few days ago, there were eight other fireman in charge of Tan Street, just smelled an inexplicable smell when burning a dead body, and something went wrong.

All the fireman fell to the ground, with weird smiles on their faces before they died.

Ren Qing seems to be the only one who survived, but his body has already changed his soul, and he was just an ordinary office worker in his previous life.

The days after he crossed over were muddheaded, but fortunately, he didn’t have much contact with people, so he wouldn’t be found out.

It’s a pity that time did not give him a further adaptation process.

Ren Qing has a large number of lines surging in front of him, outlining a messy pattern, and finally forming a few paragraphs of text.

【Ren Qing 】

【Age: 17】

【life essence: 13 days in five years】

This is the Divine Ability that Ren Qing was born with. As long as you touch others, you can check its life essence, but it is limited to this.

The reason why he has five years left in his life essence is due to the severe failure of his internal organs after he was resurrected from the dead.

And it is strange to say that the people of this world, the upper limit of life essence is generally only about fifty years old, and when they reach the age of forty, they are already dying.

It’s not like any dynasty in the previous life.

Although Ren Qing has not yet found a way to prolong his life, after inquiring about the news, he can see clues from the yamen of different ranks.

Generally speaking, if there is a violent death, the jailer will come to check first, and after confirming that nothing has happened, it will be Ren Qing and these fireman, and finally the Dark Scribe who cleans up blood and filth.

Ren Qing has never had contact with the jailer, but he suspects that the jailer is a cultivator who has mastered spell, otherwise Sanxiang City would not be able to maintain its apparent stability.

That’s why he was brave oneself and three inexperienced White Cloth Servants to deal with the weird and inexplicable mess.

Ren Qing cautiously cleans up the house.

A moment later, Li Mian and the two bravely walked in.

They wrapped the meat in the sackcloth they carried with them, and even took the wooden furniture into pieces and carried it away without missing anything.

“officer, there is a book between the shelves.”

Li Mian took the book and handed it to Ren Qing.

He didn’t dare to look at it at all. Any actions of the White Cloth Servant must be approved by the yamen, so as to ensure that there will be no accidents.

Ren Qing took the book and suddenly felt a tingling pain in his mind.

He fell to the ground, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

“officer!!!”

Li Heng and Li Mian tried to get close, but were stopped by Ren Qing.

“It’s fine, I’m fine.”

Ren Qing let the two continue to clean up, while he sat at the door of the bookstore to rest for a while, while the book was tightly held by him .

At the moment of touching the book, Ren Qing’s Divine Ability was triggered for the first time, and the information flow gathered in front of him.

【Eyeless Art】

【It was learned by the old monk with a hundred eyes from the Sectarian Sutra, Cultivation This method must dig out the eyes, and take the eyeballs together with the medicine. It was able to grow back after 749 Days. ]

Ren Qing’s arm was holding the book in his arms, and after a cup of tea, some information appeared.

[After digging out the eyes, they will sink into the boundless darkness and see things that ordinary people cannot see. Those who have completed the cultivation can swallow the eyeballs alive to recover from their injuries and prolong their lives. The human eye is the best. ]

A moment later, new information about Eyeless Art reappears.

【One-Eyed Person: see through illusions】

【Hundred-Eyed Person: create illusions】

【Dual-Pupil Person: predict enemies first】

Ren Qing couldn’t help swallowing his saliva, his heart could not help beating wildly, and there was a morbid flush on his face.

[It can consume 30 days of life essence, and the price of immunity can be mastered]

Does the so-called price refer to the forty-nine days after gouging out the eyes and blindness, or is it a deeper secret?

Ren Qing doesn’t want to change because of hesitation.

Cultivation’s method is right in front of you, and it can continue the life essence, even if it’s a little weird, but it’s better than muddleheaded waiting for death.

His thoughts move, the life essence of 30 days is fleeting.

Besides, the residents in this alley have all been evacuated, which is far less noticeable than the crowded yamen.

New book set sail, ask for everything! ! !
