Chapter 149: What Did You Open?
The First Peak youth was stunned for a moment.
He thought his literary attainments were quite good, and he usually spoke in poetry, but he was still a bit confused by the content of the jade slip, so he studied it word by word. But he was still a bit lost, so after analyzing it carefully again, he stayed there. "To descendants, give it? How to give? Why must it be a 'Qing'e'? 'Qing'e' is a description for a woman, right?" After a long while, he looked down at the small bottle and suddenly thought of something, his eyes widening.
"It wouldn't be..." Recalling that he had even smelled it before, he felt a bit unwell, gritting his teeth and muttering. "Too much!!" Then he instinctively wanted to throw it away, but he was a bit reluctant, thinking to himself that this might count as half an Ancient Emperor bloodline, so he held it in his hand, very conflicted, wondering if it couldn't be a man.
At the same time, Xu Qing opened his eyes on the magic boat in the distance, looked at the First Peak youth on the large sword behind him, and guessed that the other party should be opening that so-called Wish Box, feeling curious in his heart. "What did you open?" Xu Qing transmitted his voice.
The cover on the large sword dissipated, and the First Peak youth sat there in a daze, his face a bit ugly, then he kept spitting air, seemingly cleaning his nasal cavity.
He even poured magic power into his nostrils, and only after a long while did his expression improve a little. He looked at the sky without speaking, as for the Wish Box, it had already been put away by him.
Seeing this, Xu Qing had a guess in his heart and withdrew his gaze without paying attention.
Just like that, time passed again, and the two of them got closer and closer to the Seven Blood Eyes, and Xu Qing also had an understanding of that feather magic tool. The effect of this item was speed.
Once activated, it could allow one's own speed to instantly erupt, reaching several times one's own, but it had high requirements for the physical body. Because there were outsiders, Xu Qing didn't try it, but after feeling it, he had already determined that once this magic tool was activated, his own speed would be extremely astonishing.
"Need to find a place to try it out and get familiar with the use of this magic tool after activation." Xu Qing pondered, noticing the appearance of a Seventh Blood Eyes magic boat in the distance.
Almost the instant the Seventh Blood Eyes magic boat appeared, the First Peak youth, who had become bored since opening the Wish Box along the way, instantly raised his head and snapped his fingers, and a new Daoist robe appeared on his body.
The movement was very skillful, as if he had practiced it many times, and his expression revealed coldness, as if he had turned into cold ice. Sword Qi was also vaguely lingering on his body, moving to connect the dead horse, looking both vigilant and deliberate, especially the lingering Sword Qi, which made his long hair float. Outsiders would think it was extraordinary at first glance. Until the Seventh Blood Eyes magic boat went far away, the First Peak youth became listless again. Such actions, especially the way and speed of changing clothes, made Xu Qing feel a bit strange.
However, as time passed, the number of Seven Blood Eyes disciples encountered along the way increased, and every time the other party did this, Xu Qing gradually got used to it, while the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor seized the opportunity and whispered to Xu Qing.
"Master, this kid is obviously someone who pays special attention to his image. I think we don't have to kill such people. We can use his personality to make him work for us."
"For example, at a critical moment, Master, you can praise him a little. According to the descriptions in the ancient books I've seen, this type of person in ancient books is often the kind who can bleed for the sake of face."
"In addition, I guessed before that he values face extremely highly, so I have already cast a spell to imprint all his miserable appearances along the way. I also saved the scene of him stealing the dead horse and him speaking like a human. Whether it's useful or not, at least this is a check and balance method for his personality."
"In addition, if there is a chance in the future, Master, you can create some situations that make this person even more embarrassed, such as making him beg for mercy, such as putting him in filth, etc. I will keep the images for future use."
The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor spoke rapidly, not saying a word about how useful he was, but when heard together, it revealed his expression of his own value.
"Please punish me, Master, because my reaction is too slow. For Master, these small things can be thought of in a flash, but I thought for a long, long time before thinking of these. Please punish me, Master, I am too stupid, and my talent is as different from Master's as heaven and earth."
"Master, please give me another chance. I will definitely work hard. I implore you to leave these small things, these dirty and tiring jobs, to me in the future. You Lingzi will definitely do his best to live up to Master's trust." Xu Qing swept a glance at the black iron slip beside him and said faintly. "Three months are almost up. I will allow you an extra month here, and the shadow remains the same."
The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor was instantly excited, then pretended to glance at the shadow casually, while the shadow trembled, dispersed rapidly, and plunged into the sea, frantically absorbing impurities. Xu Qing swept a glance at them, ignored them, closed his eyes, and meditated to practice the Health Preservation Technique.
Until time passed, the Seven Blood Eyes port was in sight in the distance. As the number of boats encountered increased, the First Peak youth seemed to have let go of his worries, stood up with a firm expression in his eyes, and maintained his transcendent posture at all times. Regarding Xu Qing's cold gaze, he seemed not as depressed as before, but instead turned his head to look Xu Qing up and down a few times and said faintly.
"A cloud in front of the City God Temple, the cultivators coming and going die fast."
Xu Qing touched the black iron slip beside him upon hearing this, and the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor was also sensible, releasing fierce intent to lock onto the First Peak youth.
The First Peak youth coughed, knowing that the other party didn't understand what he was saying, and he didn't seem willing to explain, so he took out a jade slip, imprinted it, and then threw it to Xu Qing, looking as if everything was in it. Xu Qing frowned, and after catching the jade slip, the information the other party imprinted in it appeared in his mind.
"Brother, you and I can be considered fated. I am Wu Jianwu, the Ninth Prince of the First Peak. We are not acquainted without fighting. We are in the same sect. I think your malevolent Qi is too heavy, and we don't have to fight to the death."
"And it's not good to have too much malevolent Qi outside. I heard that Brother Chen, the core disciple of the Third Peak, disappeared after going out because his malevolent Qi was too heavy after promotion. Now many years have passed, and the murderer has not been found." "There is also the only son of the Sixth Peak Master back then, who was also like you, with very heavy malevolent Qi, and he also disappeared." "So I advise you, take care of yourself."
The First Peak youth Wu Jianwu stood on the large sword, swept a glance at Xu Qing rapidly. The moment Xu Qing looked at the jade slip, he suddenly rushed out, his whole body was filled with blood light, and he turned into a long rainbow and rushed to the sky, and a large sword was transformed under his feet.
The whole person looked imposing, instantly pulling away from the magic boat where Xu Qing was, and rushed toward the First Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes in the whistling sound of the sword tip in the sky. "Transcending the world, I become an immortal by swallowing the clouds and the sea."
When flying away, his mouth made a loud sound, echoing in all directions, attracting many people's attention. In their eyes, this First Peak genius was in a red Daoist robe, his long hair dancing, looking like an immortal. Xu Qing looked coldly, he didn't care about the other party's little trick. In fact, the closer he was to the sect, the less he would take action like before.
At this moment, he withdrew his gaze, steered the magic boat toward the Seven Blood Eyes port. The moment he approached, the Life-Linking Talisman imprint permeating his body emitted a soft light and dissipated rapidly.
Until he completely stepped into the harbor of the Seven Blood Eyes, all the talismans on his body disappeared.
Xu Qing's body relaxed, looked at Wu Jianwu who had already flown to the First Peak, put away the magic boat, his body soared into the air, flew toward the Seventh Peak, and soon entered the Seventh Peak and returned to his cave dwelling.
After arriving outside the gate of the cave dwelling, Xu Qing sensed the surroundings, confirmed that his previous arrangements were all as usual, and then opened the gate of the cave dwelling. After walking in, as the gate closed, Xu Qing sat cross-legged.
"Returning this time, I need to see how many spirit stones are needed to open the port. Besides, living on the mountain is indeed inconvenient. It is more comfortable on the magic boat." After Xu Qing pondered, he looked at the purple Daoist robe on his body and thought of the gray Daoist robes of Zhang San and the Captain, and made some decisions in his heart.
Then he turned his head to look at the central jade plate in the cave dwelling. Since he entered the cave dwelling, it had always emitted a faint light. This central jade plate was the core of the cave dwelling array, and the replacement of spirit stones was also here, and it also had a recording function. Xu Qing swept a glance, walked over, raised his hand and pressed it on the central jade plate, and suddenly information appeared in his mind, which recorded the people who requested to visit during this period.
Among them, one was Huang Yan, one was Zhou Qingpeng, three were Ding Xue, and even two were Gu Muqing, but the most were two.
One was the Chief of the Criminal Capture Division, his record had twenty-three entries, and the other was a member of the Sixth Team of the Criminal Capture Division at the foot of the mountain, the reported name was Mute.
His visit record had a total of forty-one entries. This was basically coming every day. Xu Qing looked at these records and thought of the day he saved Mute casually. Obviously, the other party's life was very tenacious and he had already survived.
While Xu Qing was checking, suddenly the jade plate flashed again, and another record was added, still from Mute. For disciples on the mountain, visits from outsiders need their consent, and this is especially true for disciples at the foot of the mountain, so after Xu Qing thought about it, he agreed to the request for a visit.
It didn't take long for a thin figure to follow the array guidance all the way to the front of Xu Qing's cave dwelling. After approaching cautiously, as the cave dwelling gate opened, Xu Qing walked out.
"What's the matter?" Xu Qing looked at the little Mute standing there, not daring to continue approaching, very restrained, three feet away. The other party's clothing was as old as before, the injuries on his body had long since healed, and the whole person had a bit more coldness, obviously that narrow escape from death had made him grow a lot.
Under Xu Qing's gaze, Mute's body trembled, he took out a token from his arms, placed it respectfully to the side, then stepped back a few steps, raised his little face to look at Xu Qing, and suddenly knelt down and kowtowed a few times hard. His forehead was bleeding before he stood up and ran toward the foot of the mountain rapidly.
Xu Qing watched the other party go far away, raised his right hand and grabbed, and the token on the ground flew over. This object was not an identity mark, but a storage token.
For Xu Qing, who was very familiar with the port, he naturally knew what this was.
The port of the Seven Blood Eyes, half was used by the Seventh Peak disciples, and the other half was for the outside. On weekdays, there were many boats of various races coming and going, and pirates were also mixed in.
And these foreign boats could not be put away like the magic boats of the Seven Blood Eyes, so they needed to be docked and stored, and this token was the token.
For the Seven Blood Eyes, to pick up a boat, they only recognized the token.
Obviously, after little Mute experienced the incident of sending the wanted criminal's corpse last time, he thought Xu Qing didn't like wanted criminals, so this time he didn't know how many he killed, got such a token, and sent it to Xu Qing. This time, Xu Qing accepted it. ===== CHAPTER 150 =====
