Chapter 672: The Unlucky Death Row Prisoner

The city lights corresponded to the stars, and there were people guarding the library lights.

At night, without the messy guests, Li Hongjiu also let go, sitting on the ground against the bookshelf, with a book in one hand and a wine jar in the other, occasionally taking a sip, feeling very comfortable.

Since the day he pointed out Dong Liangyu, the red-clothed woman had provided him with enough wine, of course, she hadn't lacked his before either.

Footsteps approached; it was Dong Liangying, holding a tray with a midnight snack made by her eldest sister.

It was also ordered by her father for his eldest daughter to cook, and for his younger daughter to send it to her master, and it was required to be sent every night.

Now that the second girl Dong Liangyu could cultivate was no longer a secret in this family, one could imagine how this family felt about Li Hongjiu, especially since even the red-clothed woman and Fu Que were surprised.

They discovered that this so-called first person among the new generation in the cultivation world was indeed extraordinary.

Such great kindness, naturally, they were more and more respectful.

Master Li lit a lamp to read at night, how could he lack their intentions.

Of course, it was impossible to send it only to Li Hongjiu; there was someone in the library with a greater reputation than Li Hongjiu.

Therefore, the Sword Saint Fu Que could also be considered to have benefited from Li Hongjiu's light, but Fu Que had a resilient mindset and had long since lost any desire for food, having grown accustomed to grain-fasting, so he declined every time.

Dong Liangying knelt on the ground, put down the tray, set the bowls and chopsticks for her master, and sat there waiting.

Li Hongjiu was not polite at all. Since they insisted on preparing it this way, he wouldn't be polite either. After taking a bite, he found that the first disciple of his life was pouting and unhappy.

He immediately asked curiously, "What's wrong? I didn't provoke you, did I?"

Dong Liangying changed to a pleading expression, "Master, please give me some guidance. Look, my second sister can cultivate, but I still haven't entered the door. This makes the disciple feel ashamed."

Li Hongjiu was not in a hurry, picked up the wine and took a gulp, saying slowly: "You think I am hiding secrets, but you don't know that if all truths could be explained to people, there would be no fools in this world. The truth is already written on paper, and everyone can see it, but if it can't be explained, it can't be explained. Even if I dry my mouth, it's useless."

Glancing at his disappointed disciple, he smiled and comforted: "Many cultivation techniques in the cultivation world are like this. Some people can practice them, but some people can't practice them no matter what. Don't worry, take your time, and it will naturally pass when it can."

He didn't want to talk about this anymore, having repeated similar topics countless times in the Yanbao Sect, so he drank wine and ate meat to change the subject: "Your father is a rigid person, I think the names of your four sisters and brothers are not random, is there any particular reason?"

Dong Liangying hummed, looking uninterested, and said simply: "Cultivating the external is 'Yi', cultivating the internal is 'Yu', nourishing a breath of noble spirit is 'Ying', only then can one 'Ze' people."

Li Hongjiu said oh, "So it means cultivating the body and establishing the person, it's family education."

While talking, footsteps came again. Both of them turned their heads and were surprised to see Dong Wenshu walking out from behind the bookshelf.

Dong Liangying stood up quickly, "Father, why are you here?"

"Go practice, I'll talk to your master."

After sending his daughter away, Dong Wenshu bowed to Li Hongjiu who was sitting on the ground, and then sat cross-legged.

He scanned the meal tray on the ground and saw no wine cups, and no extra bowls and chopsticks, so he couldn't find a place to toast.

Li Hongjiu smiled: "If the curator has anything to say, just say it."

"Well, since the master said so, I won't hide it." Although he said so, Dong Wenshu paused, and after brewing for a while, he tried to say: "The situation of that girl Yu'er recently, our whole family has seen it, it seems that even her body is much better, and she doesn't cough anymore."

Li Hongjiu nodded slightly, as if making a very casual response, "Refining the body with heaven and earth, making up for the lack with heaven and earth."

Dong Wenshu didn't understand and continued: "It can be seen that Yu'er is very suitable for cultivating the master's technique. Since the master is willing to guide her, I have discussed it with Yu'er, and it is not good to be nameless and unjustifiable. If the master doesn't abandon her, Yu'er is also willing to worship under the master's door, please fulfill it."

In his view, "name and justice" are very important.

In his view, since the other party is willing to teach, he thought that apprenticeship would not be a problem.

But he didn't know that he had met someone who didn't follow common sense.

Li Hongjiu, who was gulping wine, waved his hand and shook his head directly, "Apprenticeship is forget it, I have already entered the cage, and this body is difficult to settle. Why does the curator want to let his daughter follow in my footsteps?"

Dong Wenshu stared in surprise: "Why does the master say this? The master is talented. If the little girl can receive the master's mantle, it is a blessing she couldn't ask for."

Li Hongjiu waved his hand again, "I haven't taught her anything, and she doesn't need me to teach her anything. Her method of circulating Qi and practicing is also different from mine. I just led her out of the door, let her see the world outside the door. There are countless roads in front of her. Which road she is willing to take, which road she will choose, maybe..."

A finger swayed on the top of his head, pointing to the bookshelves around, "Maybe the answer has long been hidden in your family's history books."

Dong Wenshu listened to a half-understanding, so he bowed again to ask for advice: "How to solve?"

Li Hongjiu raised his hand and patted his forehead, then turned his head and stopped being elegant, simply and crudely said: "I mean, if you worship a master, you have to join the Yanbao Sect, and you have to accept the constraints of the sect. Don't look for trouble. I am neither willing nor will I accept your second child as a disciple, it's that simple."

"..." Dong Wenshu, who was speechless, was embarrassed there.

Sometimes words that are too straightforward are easy to understand, but they are indeed not easy to accept...

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang, who were gaining knowledge in Qiangyu City, relied on having money and finally hired a sedan chair that could lie flat, the kind with curtains hanging on all four sides, and let people carry them around the city. When they arrived at which street or location, the instructed sedan carriers would point it out.

The two only needed to look at the scenery and people, and remember the places on the map they bought.

On the way, Shi Chun received a message from Lao Changtai, saying that he had returned and asked where they were.

Shi Chun immediately greeted Wu Jinliang to get off the sedan and leave.

He didn't let the sedan carriers send them back, but walked back all the way.

Returning to the mansion, Lao Changtai, who was pacing in the courtyard, immediately led them into the house to see.

Inside the house, on the table, there were thirty or so black soul-detaining bags, each bag was marked with a number, and there was also a storage bag.

Lao Changtai pointed and explained: "A total of thirty-three souls, the corpses are all in the storage bag, complete corpses, each corpse corresponds to the number on the soul-detaining bag."

This far exceeded Shi Chun's expectations. It was done within half a day, and even the details that were not explained were handled properly. It is worthy of being an elite disciple selected by various sects. He has the ability to do things, and Shi Chun is very satisfied.

Wu Jinliang asked curiously: "It can't be that you just catch anyone on the street and kill them. Why did that guy Liao Xi do such wicked things?"

Lao Changtai smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Anyway, as soon as I said this, he patted his chest and took on the matter. I only knew after he came back to report,

he actually solved all the death row prisoners in the Yongcheng prison at once. I don't know how he did it, probably just the set of bribing officials.

Among the thirty-three, there are those who are treacherous and evil, but I can't be sure if all of them are people who deserve to die. In total, it cost one thousand quantity money each, and a total of thirty-three thousand was spent."

"..." Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang looked at each other. The two were curious, are the death row prisoners in the prison something that can be killed all at once?

Also a little worried, the Underworld also has order and rules, okay? Acting recklessly like this, don't cause trouble and implicate them.

"That guy Yuan Xi is quite regretful. It seems that he thinks there are too few prisoners among the death row prisoners, and asked me if I can give them more time, saying he can find a way to get more for us.

It can't be used as food anyway. The Great Master said it's for experiments, saying ten or more is enough. I think thirty-something is almost enough, so I stopped it. My meaning is, if the Great Master still wants it, he should have no problem on his side."

Wu Jinliang chuckled, "That guy Yuan Xi really dares to do anything for money. Have you observed carefully on the way back? You weren't followed, right?"

Shi Chun had already opened his right eye ability and looked around.

Lao Changtai said: "He killed thirty-something death row prisoners at once, I was also afraid, I regretted finding him, but things have already happened, and there is no way. I took a big circle before coming back, and observed repeatedly, shouldn't be followed, right?"

Wu Jinliang looked at Shi Chun. Whether he was followed, this Great Master's eyesight has more say.

After pacing in the room for a long time and observing the surroundings, Shi Chun said to Lao Changtai: "That guy Yuan Xi's efficiency is indeed a bit excessive, it is indeed a bit scary. Learn from your mistakes, next time you find him to do things, it is better to figure things out first."

"Hmm." Lao Changtai nodded, he was ready to do so without being told.

Shi Chun pointed to the bags on the table and said: "I will take all the corpses, leave half of the bags here, and see how the experiment goes. If underworld creatures can also open the passage to go back and forth, it would be best. If it really doesn't work, we can only abduct more living creatures from the outside. In short, we must master the corpses and souls entering and exiting, otherwise, like Langdangchuan, every time we enter, we will alarm the underworld messengers, which is too dangerous. If it lasts long, something will inevitably go wrong."

Lao Changtai agreed deeply: "That's right."

Saying do it, Shi Chun left all the soul-detaining bags from one to fifteen, and after a brief explanation, he left with Wu Jinliang.

The two went directly out of the city, in a remote place far from the city, escaped into the ground, and burned the incense of death again.

In a somewhat nervous expectation, the hole leading to the outside world opened again, and the two immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, there was another robbery. With the experience of appearing over Qiangyu City before, Wu Jinliang whispered a reminder: "I don't know where it will appear this time."

Shi Chun looked at the hole and said: "Young Master Nan's 'Wuyu Pavilion' is in a relatively quiet place."

Wu Jinliang: "But the exit position cannot be judged."

Shi Chun didn't dare to delay, and had already flashed into the hole. After landing, he was a little surprised to find that he was actually in a magnificent room, and the scale didn't look like an ordinary place. ===== CHAPTER 673 =====

Shi Chun dared not delay and had already flashed into the cave. After exiting the cave and landing, he was somewhat surprised to find himself in a magnificent room; judging by its scale, it did not look like an ordinary place.
