At the same time, on the other side, under a lush tree on the outskirts of Dashang Capital City, Bian Qing, an evil girl in black, finally caught up with the middle-aged man. But her brows were furrowed and she looked very unhappy.
Joy.
"Miss, you are out of breath. You were murdered and silenced. You didn't leave any clues. Moreover, the thing we were looking for is also missing."
A gorgeously dressed maid turned over the middle-aged man lying next to a big tree and kept rummaging around, trying to find clues left by the murderer.
"It's all that stinking scholar's fault. If he hadn't entangled the lady and rang the bell, this bastard wouldn't have been alert and suddenly ran away. Maybe they were in the same group and found the lady and bumped into you on purpose to make him escape.
It took us a year to finally track down the news about him hiding in Xiaxu, where will we find clues this time?"
The maid in gorgeous clothes became angrier as she spoke.
However, Bian Qing was even angrier than her:
"Bring me that boy from Xiaxu, I'm going to give him a good torture."
"yes!"
A sharp light flashed in the eyes of the gorgeously dressed maid, and she quickly followed the order and left. But she left just as quickly as she came, and came back only a moment later.
"Miss, I searched the entire Lower Market, and the scholar is missing."
"What?"
Hearing these words, Bian Qing's clothes trembled all over his body, and he finally showed an unexpected look, as well as more doubts:
"How is that possible? I have blocked all the acupuncture points in his body. He will not be able to move for at least three hours."
"Miss, let me tell you, there must be something weird about him!"
The maid in gorgeous clothes spoke plausibly.
"Xiao Wan, go check on that scholar and remember not to alert him. This time I find him, I will give him a lesson." Bian Qing said with an angry look on his face.
"Yes, miss."
…
Following the jingling of the bell, Bian Qing jumped up and quickly disappeared into the woods on the outskirts.
Chen Mansion.
Wow, when Chen Shaojun put the more than twenty taels of gold left over from shopping in his sleeves on the table together with the jade pendant that Uncle Jiang had pawned, in the room, Uncle Jiang and Honglian looked excited.
"Uncle Jiang, am I right? Can the young master make money?"
Honglian stared blankly at the gold piled in front of her eyes and pinched herself hard.
"Yeah, I'm not dreaming, am I?"
Uncle Jiang looked at the ancestral jade pendant with excitement on his face.
Chen Shaojun looked at this scene and smiled without saying a word:
"Uncle Jiang, Honglian, you don't have to worry about the expenses of the mansion from now on. In addition, I will definitely find a way to save my father and eldest brother."
Chen Shaojun said seriously. After saying this, Chen Shaojun quickly turned around and entered the room, leaving only Jiang Bo and Hong Lian in a daze, unable to recover.
…
Time passed slowly, in Chen's room.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, Chen Shaojun was shaken, billowing white steam burst out from his body, and there was hot sweat on his forehead.
"Finally it worked!"
Chen Shaojun's face turned red, and he took a long breath. His whole body instantly relaxed a lot. And with this breath, the fresh air in his body also flowed through the Qi veins throughout his body, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea.
It merged into the position three inches below the navel and leaked into a strange "small space".
The fifth level, Qi Yu Realm!
After several days of practice, and with the help of elixirs, Chen Shaojun finally broke through to the fifth level of martial arts. Chen Shaojun could clearly feel that the "small space" was like a vortex, sucking and pulling powerfully.
Clear Qi in the Qi channels and Qi points of the whole body.
In just a moment, all the fresh air in Chen Shaojun's body's energy veins and air pockets were completely emptied, but there was far from any feeling of fullness in that "small air space".
Qiyu, this is the name of that small space.
That is the real universe of qi, which can store the pure qi in the human body infinitely. When all the pure qi gathers here, it will continue to compress, change, and evolve into a higher level of energy, just like an endless universe of qi.
, can never be filled.
This is the origin of "Qiyu".
Reaching this level, the amount of Qing Qi that can be stored in the human body will be much larger, and the strength will be greatly enhanced.
"Buzz!"
Chen Shaojun closed his eyes again, but this time instead of attacking the acupuncture points, he absorbed the clean air from the Zhoutian world. Exhaling, as soon as the Qi Yu was completed, Chen Shaojun immediately felt a huge change, and endless turbid air entered the body.
The pure air inside was quickly absorbed. Not only that, the invisible and formless pure air in the void also seemed to be pulled by some invisible force and converged towards Chen Shaojun.
Chen Shaojun can feel that with every breath, he can extract more clean air from the turbid air. He is like a sponge, endlessly attracting the clean air from all the worlds around him, constantly strengthening himself and filling the air.
Qi points, Qi channels, and Qi Yu.
"boom!"
I don’t know how long it took, but Chen Shaojun suddenly punched out. Boom, there was only a roar, and a ball of pure air burst out from Chen Shaojun’s fist, and exploded violently. In an instant, the air was like water waves, shooting out violently.
Go out and radiate in all directions.
Centered on the place where Chen Shaojun's fist struck out, a strong wind blew up, and the ripples visible to the naked eye condensed into substance and spread obviously in all directions. Even the walls on the edge were affected by this vibration and trembled slightly.
.
Angry!
When martial arts reaches the fifth level of Qi Yujing, the warrior's strength and the amount of pure Qi stored in the body are greatly increased. The most obvious change is that it can produce "Qi explosion". The power is greatly increased during battle. But for Chen Shaojun, it is even more
The important thing is——
"When I reach the fifth level and have enough Qing Qi, I can initially control the magic weapon!"
Chen Shaojun stood up from the ground suddenly, his eyes bright and his face showing great confidence.
Ordinary warriors, even if they have reached a higher level of bone and blood, may find it difficult to control those powerful magic weapons.
But Chen Shaojun is different. As a former weapon master in the immortal world, Chen Shaojun has his own pride. Looking at the world, there are almost no magical weapons that he does not understand. He only needs the fifth level of martial arts to initially control those magical weapons at the lowest level.
, implement your own plan.
"But this alone is not enough. The Crown Prince's affairs are related to the fate of our entire Chen family, so we must act with caution."
Chen Shaojun said secretly, his expression extremely cautious.
You only have one chance, once you fail, you will be doomed!
He couldn't help but think about it!
Moreover, although he is a weapon master, he has never treated anyone. Even if he can control the magic weapon, he may not be able to cure the crown prince 100%.
"If you want to cure the crown prince, you must get one last thing!"
Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
Purple core dragon grass!
This is something that Chen Shaojun saw in an ancient fairy book when he was in the fairy world.
As long as you find that kind of material, your success rate in saving the crown prince will be greatly increased.
Although it is recorded in the scriptures of the fairy world, this herb grows in the human world, but few people know about it in the human world, and it is extremely rare. It can only be found with the help of a special treasure hunting instrument.
When it comes to the lives of his father and eldest brother, Chen Shaojun does not dare to be careless.
"Buzz!"
Chen Shaojun pondered for a moment and quickly took out a white jade from his arms.
Chen Shaojun bought this from the lower market. Ordinary jade only costs one tael of silver, but Chen Shaojun's one cost two taels of gold, which is more than ten times more expensive.
"Although the quality is still too poor, it cannot be positioned so accurately. However, if the requirements are lowered and a little rougher, it should be enough to make a one-time mortal treasure hunter."
Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
"Buzz!"
With a thought in his mind, Chen Shaojun took out a stylus and began to carve the magic circle on the surface of the white jade. His hand was very steady, without any trembling, and he soon entered a state of selflessness.
The "Treasure Hunting Instrument" is not very complicated, especially the one engraved by Chen Shaojun is a simple version.
Two days later, Chen Shaojun quickly made what he wanted, and then quickly left the Chen family with a baggage on his back.
…
At the same time, Dashang's prison was dark and groggy. Even the weak candlelight seemed unable to withstand the oppressive atmosphere in the prison. It swayed from side to side and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
…
The sound of whipping sounded from the depths of the prison, one after another, and it seemed that you could still hear the sound of flesh and blood being ripped apart.
"Humph! You are so stubborn! See if I don't pry your mouth open!"
A harsh voice resounded throughout the depths of the prison. A warder severely beat a man in front of him who was breathless, his hands were tied, and he was hanging in the air. The blood on his body flowed along His toes slightly touched the ground, and the water flowed onto the damp, black ground. Looking carefully, the black dirt on the ground was actually blood that had condensed together after an unknown amount of time.
Bang, the warder whipped the man again and hit him hard.
The man's lips were tightly closed and he didn't say a word. His eyes were lowered without any movement.
"Chen Zhengche, you still don't plead guilty? I advise you to think carefully, but I remember... you seem to have a younger brother."
Suddenly, a vicious voice came into Chen Zhengche's ears.
Suddenly, Chen Zhengche's body shook violently, a light flashed in his eyes, he slowly raised his blood-stained face, endured the bursts of pain from his body, and finally spoke: "Don't...touch me... …younger brother……"
Every time Chen Zhengche spoke a word, a trace of blood flowed out from the movements of his lips. His face, which was originally as pale as paper, suddenly became a little pale again.
"If you want him to live well, just sign it for me!"
Deep in the darkness, the voice snorted coldly. Then, a thin piece of paper was thrown out of the darkness and stayed in the void in front of Chen Zhengche, motionless, as if the paper was already there.
Although Chen Zhengche's eyes were blurry, he could clearly see the words on the piece of paper, the indictment!
"Snapped!"
A force suddenly wrapped around the rope that tied Chen Zhengche's hands, and the rope exploded.
"Chen Zhengche, you are dead anyway, do you want to drag your brother to die with you?"
A look of pain flashed in Chen Zhengche's eyes.
Chen Zhengche had no support and slid to sit on the wet ground. And the piece of paper followed Chen Zhengche's movements and fell in front of him. Chen Zhengche's hands kept shaking, and a smile that resembled that of Chen Shaojun flashed in his mind.
.Finally, I made up my mind, breathed a long sigh of relief, and murmured in a hoarse voice:
"Brother..., live well..."
He raised his weak right hand and without hesitation, he stretched out towards the sheet of charges.
I don't know how long it took, but the incriminating sheet, full of the smell of blood and stamped with bloody fingerprints, appeared on the desk of the Prime Minister of Dali Temple.
"Master Zhou, Chen Zhengche pleads guilty!"
"Very good. With this confession, this matter has been settled."
In front of the desk, a burly figure looked at the indictment in front of him, with a satisfied smile on his lips:
"When someone comes, I will write to the court immediately, and Chen Zhengche will be executed in five days!"
