Volume 1: Brothers, Brothers Chapter 14: A Warning, The Past Is Careless, The Future Will Be Blessed (Part 1)
"elder brother……"
Looking at Lin Xiaohu's appearance like a crazy tiger, Lin Xiaoqin's eyes were full of worry: "You used Soul Thorn again..."
Lin Xiaohu suddenly looked back, holding the iron fork that was still dripping with blood, his eyes were blood red and he stared fiercely - not at his younger sister Lin Xiaoqin who was speaking, but at his younger sister Lin Xiaoqin who was still standing by, with his whole body covered in fright like chaff.
Zhao Dazhong!.
Zhao Dazhong was startled and suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, holding his head in his hands: "Don't kill me, don't kill me... I can work for you and serve your brothers and sisters, but don't kill me, I... I don't want to die...
I don’t want to die…”
Lin Xiaohu suddenly took a step forward, with a murderous look on his face; Zhao Dazhong's whole body went limp and he fell down as if he was paralyzed in mud.
"elder brother……"
A small hand held Lin Xiaohu's arm, but Lin Xiaoqin begged with a pale face: "Don't kill him, okay? He has always taken care of us, and... he is soft-tempered, and he is not disrespectful to us. Why should you?"
Kill more people..."
Lin Xiaohu stood in silence for a while, then finally pursed his lips and dropped the iron fork in his hand with a clang.
Zhao Dazhong was breathing heavily and stretched out his hand to wipe the waterfall of cold sweat on his forehead, but his fingers were still trembling.
Lin Xiaohu sat back by the fire: "I won't kill you, and I won't be as harsh on you as Wang. Damn, he also came from a poor family, but he practiced for two more years and reached the third-level blood refining realm.
By chance, he met Wen Renlu in Qishulin, and tricked him with intrigues. He got the sword and the clothes. It was like a toad growing wings and thinking he was a swan? Damn it, you turned over.
Aren't you still a salted fish? You still want to take my sister. If I don't kill you, who will I kill?"
He spat fiercely and pulled Lin Xiaoqin over to lean against him: "Zhao Dazhong, you will follow me from now on, and we will fight out of this hellish place together. I know that everyone just wants to survive, and there are no other requirements.
. But you have to do the work. I know that the noble boy has a secret, and it was taken away by this man named Wang. I have to concentrate on practicing martial arts!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" When Zhao Dazhong heard that he didn't have to die, he was so excited that he said incoherently: "I'll cook now, I'll cook now!"
But before cooking, he first threw Wang Haibiao's body out of the cave. Wang Haibiao relied on himself to "ascend to heaven" and killed a noble boy. He kept saying he wanted to skin others, but he didn't expect that he would soon
The yellow beam dream was over, and even the body was thrown out of the cave, probably becoming the food of monsters.
Zhao Dazhong was very diligent and used the remaining boiling water to wash away the blood on the ground, then boiled the water again and cooked dinner.
Lin Xiaohu sat silently by the fire, but did not read the secret book, but was in a daze. The blazing firelight danced on his face, exuding an abnormal red color, which actually looked a bit like a high-ranking statue in the temple.
.
Lin Xiaoqin sat with her brother for a while, then stood up silently, went to Zhao Dazhong to help him cook, and whispered to him, as if to comfort him: She is a hard-working and kind-hearted farm girl, and she is very interested in this being.
The young man who was caught jacking up the tank felt very sympathetic.
Lin Xiaohu glanced sideways, but seemed to ignore it.
The outer cave finally returned to calm, and the two young men in the inner cave were tired of standing, so they all sat down against the wall of the cave. However, no one dared to speak or wanted to speak, so they all sat in silence until the end of the cave.
The last ray of light outside was extinguished.
Gradually, the night became darker, and deep snoring could be heard from the outer cave. The two teenagers could no longer hold on and slowly fell asleep.
The earth was vast, and inside and outside the cave, there was an unbearable silence...
After an unknown amount of time, the thin girl slowly opened her eyes.
"Ah!" As soon as he woke up, he was shocked to find an arm hugging his thin shoulders, and he suddenly screamed.
But it also woke up Zhang Qi, and he quickly reached out to cover her mouth: "There is someone outside, do you want your life?"
But there was no movement at all outside the cave, only the low whistle of the wind could be heard.
When I got closer to the hole again, I saw that the outer hole was completely empty, and only ashes remained on the ground.
The two teenagers fell down beside the cave wall at the same time, wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads and letting out a sigh of relief.
But the thin girl suddenly stood up again and took a few steps back with a wary face, as if she was avoiding a ferocious monster.
Zhang Qi let out a long sigh: "I don't know how to kill people, why do you do this..."
"But, but you have three blood sacrifice tokens..."
Zhang Qi patted his forehead. The little girl said that in the fierce battle on the grassland that day, he got three blood sacrifice tokens and gave her one: If he hadn't killed two people, how could he have two more tokens?
Cards coming?
Zhang Qi smiled bitterly and hurriedly recounted yesterday's process briefly, focusing on telling her: He did not kill anyone, so there is no need to be afraid.
After finishing speaking, he asked again: "By the way, I heard you say Mo Chou Mo Chou that day. Is your name Mo Chou?"
He has been wandering since he was a child and has read little. He doesn't think about things before speaking. He asks straightforwardly what comes to mind.
The thin girl smiled brightly, even though her face was yellow and covered with mud, it was like clouds had cleared and mist had dispersed: "My name is Mochou!"
"Mo Chou!" Zhang Qi supported the stone wall with one hand and stood up: "This name is so nice. Your father must be a cultural person!"
Mochou pursed her lips and laughed self-deprecatingly: "What! I heard from my mother that my father gave me my name, but he never read a book for a day. He is just a woodcutter in the countryside. How can he be a noble and educated person?
!”
She laughed like a silver bell, revealing two rows of white teeth like braided shells: "My surname is Mo, you know this. My mother said that my father was very happy the day I was born. After all, I was his first
A child. Later I heard that it was a girl. He immediately squatted down, held his head in his hands, his face was full of bitterness, and did not speak for a long time. The midwife happened to ask him what name he would give me, and he was bitter.
I looked up at the sky and sighed for a long time before I uttered one word: Chou! That’s why I called him Mo Chou.”
She chuckled: "Actually, what dad meant was, why did my old Mo family give birth to a daughter? I was worried to death! With an extra mouth to eat, I will still be a loser when I grow up! So I gave birth to my younger brother later.
My parents were as happy as anything. However, after my younger brother was born, the family did not get better at all. On the contrary, it became much poorer. Every year, five or six kilograms of Lingmai and Linggu harvested from the fields had to be paid to Mr. Lin in the town. So.
, they asked me to take the place of Mr. Lin’s daughter and participate in this holy blood sacrifice.”
"You were also caught jacking up a cylinder?"
"Yes, yes!" Mochou pouted: "I originally went to the mountain to pick mushrooms, and my parents were waiting for me to go back. Unexpectedly, I met the man named Lin from the town on the mountain and was arrested.
I thought my father would come to rescue me, but unexpectedly, the Lin family told me that they had bought me from my parents for one tael of silver..."
She tilted her head and asked, "Brother, tell me, are you also being caught to jack up the vat?"
"I'm not, I just made a deal with someone!" Zhang Qi briefly told his experience, making Mochou giggle. The girl seemed to have lowered her guard against Zhang Qi, and there was a lot more smiles on her face.
I guess he also loves to laugh.
"By the way, Miss Mo, why were you hiding in a shallow pit yesterday? You still have the leisure to dig such a big hole!"
Zhang Qi has always been curious about this question. What kind of psychology does he have to bury himself like a turtle?
Mochou smiled sweetly: "Brother, you saved me, just call me by my name. You don't need to call me girl. I'm just a daughter from a poor family. How can I be called a girl?"
She looked at the sunshine on the top of the cave and sighed: "I am so capable, how can I dig such a big hole? Yesterday, there was a very powerful person standing next to me. I don't know what kind of cultivation he is. Anyway, I just casually dug a hole.
Swing, there was a violent explosion, and a huge crater was blown up on the ground. But the man saw that we were a group of poor teenagers with basically no cultivation, and they were all similar to me. He seemed to think that killing us was not enough.
So he went to kill in the other direction. At that time, there were screams and blood all around me. I was scared to death, so I threw myself into the pit, thinking that I could hide for a while. It happened that the scene was very chaotic, and
No one noticed me, so I just hid. But later I discovered a problem. Even if I hid until the end, without two blood sacrifice orders, I would still be eliminated. But at that time, I didn’t dare to come out. Fortunately, you
It’s holding me down!”
She paused for a while and said quietly: "But when I came in, I realized that I have no cultivation, and I can't survive even if I come in..."
"You don't know how to practice?" Zhang Qi became interested and looked at her with a smile: "Don't you have the blood of God?"
"Yes! My bloodline is only weak, I only have one pitiful acupuncture point in my body, and my family is poor. I can't afford the secrets. How can I practice?" She lowered her head, but then suddenly raised it, with tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes, eagerly
He asked extremely: "I...I don't know how to practice, you don't know...you don't know..." He didn't know anything, but he didn't say it out loud.
Zhang Qi understood what she meant and couldn't help but laugh: "What if I told you that I don't know how to cultivate God?"
"Ah, you don't, you don't know how...that's okay, you are too pitiful..."
She didn't notice the difference between "cultivation" and "cultivation", and of course she probably wouldn't know if there was any difference.
This little girl didn't think anything of it because she didn't know how to practice. But when she heard that someone else didn't know how to practice, she immediately sympathized with her to the core.
Zhang Qi couldn't help but feel a little more fond of her. This little girl was different from Lu Xiaoyue. The latter was like a soaring eagle, lively, sunny, and full of vitality; but she was like a stubborn girl who grew up in the darkness.
A bean sprout is strong but deplorable.
But he didn't tell anyone about his ability to cultivate immortality. There are some things that cannot be said casually.
It is essential to be on guard against others.
Chapter 14: Warning, those who were careless will benefit future generations (Part 2)
While talking, the two of them passed through the two-foot-wide passage and returned from the inner cave to the outer cave.
Walking out of the cave, the two teenagers invariably took a long breath of fresh air, and invariably cast their eyes to the edge of the ash forest at their feet: on that path, the two aristocratic teenagers wearing only underwear and underpants were still silent.
Lying there quietly.
The clothes of the pair of master and servant were stripped off and were now put on Lin Xiaohu and Zhao Dazhong.
"Let's go bury him!" Zhang Qi sighed. Although death is like a light going out, it's better to be buried in peace.
But as he got closer, he regretted letting Mochou follow him, because this scene was too bloody.
Although the blood had coagulated and turned into a smelly dark brown, the corpse that had been chewed beyond recognition by the monsters, the severed hands, feet, fingers, and internal organs scattered everywhere, even Zhang Qi, who had always had a strong psychological quality, could not bear it.
Can't resist the urge to vomit.
Mochou's face turned pale even from afar, and her small chest was heaving violently, as if she had reached the limit of endurance.
But although she temporarily stopped at Zhang Qi's suggestion, she quickly shook her head and continued to move forward with him.
"Since I have been thrown into the purgatory of the Holy Blood Sacrifice, I think I will see scenes like this again in the future. By then, will anyone be able to let me hide behind like you? Instead of adapting to it until then, I
I’d rather get used to it now!”
Zhang Qi stared at her, a word came to his lips, and he had the urge to say it: "As long as I am here, I will let you hide behind me!" But he did not say it out loud, they met by chance and were strangers to each other, such words
It's better not to say anything.
So the two teenagers began to dig holes to bury people. In fact, the pits were easy to dig. The trap dug by Wang Haibiao and others yesterday was very suitable. All the hidden weapons inside had been released. After throwing the two corpses in, the two started
Buried in soil.
There are some broken limbs in the soft soil nearby, which can be buried together without being exposed on the trail.
Zhang Qi used his spear to pry up the soil, and after working for a while, his eyes suddenly caught sight of something, and he couldn't help but let out a "huh" sound.
It was a finger that had begun to turn black.
"Oh, brother, why are you so disgusting?" Seeing Zhang Qi holding the finger and looking at it, Mochou's face became even paler, and his stomach was turbulent. He couldn't help shouting in a hurry: "It's too disgusting, throw it away, throw it away.
!”
Zhang Qi did not throw it away, but happily took something from his finger that did not seem to exist.
It was a ring, deep in color and simple in shape: the Sumeru Ring!
This may be the happiest thing for the two teenagers since they entered Wanzhang Mountain.
Mochou did not come over, but was busy at a distance and asked: "What is this?"
"You don't know about Xumi Jie?" Zhang Qi was a little surprised: "Shouldn't you have seen it in a big auction house?"
"Are you talking about the auction on the road?" Mochou looked a little sad: "I heard it from the sisters in the same car later. But that day I was planning to go, and a rich lady from Windy City came to me.
I was forced not to leave the military camp. I heard that many sisters received such threats, so I was unable to attend the auction. I heard that they got a loan at the auction and bought many good things.
I don’t have any secrets on the exercises.”
Zhang Qi licked his lips, what a poor girl, no wonder her strength is so poor.
"This is called Sumeru Precepts!"
At this time, the two corpses were almost buried. They clapped their hands and finished their work, sitting on the stone by the roadside. Zhang Qi explained the function of the Sumeru Ring to Mochou. He held the ring in his hand and explained it in detail.
; Mochou is lying next to his legs. This scene is very warm.
"This Sumeru Ring is very extraordinary. It has a hidden formation engraved on it. People who are not very conscious cannot see its true appearance. So the teenagers yesterday didn't know that they actually missed such a good thing.
It’s a treasure. Judging from the formations carved on it, it’s at least a magic weapon, but I don’t know how much space there is inside.”
Mochou didn't look at the ring, but looked at Zhang Qi with stars in her eyes: "Brother, you know a lot!"
Zhang Qi felt a little ashamed for no reason.
One of his knowledge comes from his chat with Lu Xiaoyue. The little girl has read many books and can be said to be a little "hundred-year-old student"; the other comes from his ten-year wandering career; the third comes from his ten-year wandering career.
Even he himself has read some books, such as "Miscellaneous Interesting Stories" given to him by Chen Wuli from Chenjiazhuang. He is also knowledgeable and has a strong memory, and he will never forget the books he has read no matter how long it takes.
But he still felt that his knowledge was too lacking and he could only fool a kid like Mochou who didn't know anything.
Zhang Qi looked at this simple Sumeru ring, but secretly gathered his consciousness and launched a fierce attack on the ring. Any instrument above the spiritual weapon will be engraved with the mark of the owner's consciousness, so that even if it is lost, others cannot use it.
.But the premise is that the consciousness imprint will not be erased. And if you want to erase the consciousness imprint of others, the only way is to use consciousness to attack.
As for using consciousness to erase the marks of other people's consciousness and imprint your own, this method is included in "Consider the Country". Although Zhang Qi cannot practice "Consider the Country", he can still do it by using some of the techniques in it.
.
His consciousness was indeed very strong, and after staring at Xumijie for a quarter of an hour, the mark of the original owner Wen Renlu was erased.
"So big...so empty..."
"So big" means that the space is so big: the grade of this Xumi Ring must be higher than Zhang Qi's "Wu Qi Ring", at least it is a low-grade magic weapon, and the inner space is much larger than that of Wu Qi Ring: enough
It is ten feet square and two feet high!
This is no longer a hall, this is simply a palace!
"It's so empty", in such a huge space, there is only one corner with some things piled up: some white jade bottles, a few books, a few brocade silk clothes, both men and women, I don't know why.
Which "her" was Wen Renlu prepared for?
Zhang Qi casually put those things into his Wuqi Ring, but handed the ring to Mochou.
Mochou was stunned for a moment, his face full of confusion.
"It seems to me that you don't have a Sumeru Ring. It's a good thing. Put your own things in it, so that you, a small person like you, don't have to carry such a heavy burden." Zhang Qi explained with a smile: "It's just the things inside.
, I only left some clothes for you."
Mochou's face turned red, and he rolled his eyes, and he actually sounded a bit jealous: "What do you mean by 'such a little person'! But although this thing came cheap, you only got it because you recognized the concealment formation. It's all yours."
How can I take the credit?"
Zhang Qi was stunned, and then he remembered how he could see this ring at a glance?
But what she said made sense. Zhang Qi couldn't think of the reason why he gave the ring to her. After all, it was a low-grade magic weapon. If it were auctioned in a big auction house, it would have to sell for thousands of taels of gold.
?
He measured it based on the price of his Wuqi Ring, but he didn't expect that he had "picked up the leak" when he got the Wuqi Ring. If this high-grade spiritual weapon, the Sumeru Ring, was really auctioned, it would cost at least five or six thousand taels of gold.
It was just that the big auction house was forced to lower the price by some upper-level officials, and the blood sacrificers who participated in the auction at that time did not have much gold, so he got it at this price.
The price of low-grade magical weapons has at least doubled on the basis of high-grade spiritual weapons. It can no longer be measured in gold, but the more precious purple gold must be used: this Sumeru Ring is worth at least a thousand
Purple gold means one hundred thousand taels of gold!
Thinking about it, it seemed that he couldn't give away such a valuable thing rashly, so Zhang Qi put the hidden ring on his finger; he wanted to take off the Wuqi ring, but after thinking about it, he held back. The hidden ring is worth a lot of money.
, is it cheaper if you don’t give up?
In the end, he just asked Mochou to put the package she was carrying into the Wuqi Ring, and then the two teenagers returned to the cave.
Zhang Qi doesn't plan to leave here for the time being. The facts last night told him the cruelty in the Wanzhang Mountain. He wants to take advantage of the hiding place to practice for a few more days to improve his cultivation level. After all, he can't even reach the seventh level now.
Neither is the skin condition.
Along the way, Mochou walked much more briskly without the heavy burden. It was obvious that she was a smart and lively little girl, but the burden of life oppressed her so much that she could not be happy. She trotted all the way to the entrance of the cave.
, then she was busy looking for firewood everywhere and making a fire to cook. The eldest brother (Zhang Qi) helped her get the baggage. She learned that she could repay her kindness and cooked a meal for him.
Of course, Zhang Qi is also a "barbecue master", but he did not participate in the cooking. He has a more important thing: reading.
There are several books in the hidden ring, as well as a few jade pupils. Those books are all miscellaneous books, nothing precious; but there are two jade pupils, which successfully attracted Zhang Qi's attention: one of them is called "Cultivation"
"Common Sense" and another film called "The Complete Collection of Alchemy".
"Common Sense of Cultivation" has tens of millions of words, and it contains some common sense knowledge in the world of cultivation. Although Zhang Qi is a cultivator, cultivation leads to the same goal through different paths. He hastily read this book and found that many things in it were his own.
Useful knowledge.
"The Encyclopedia of Alchemy" is even longer, with rich pictures and texts, but it is an "encyclopedia" of alchemy: it not only contains a large number of alchemy recipes, but also the experience of alchemy, the methods of making alchemy furnaces and alchemy bottles, and even the above
Detailed introduction to thousands of medicinal materials.
Apparently, this Wen Renlu originally wanted to learn alchemy. But he "died before he left the army". Before he had time to read the book in detail, and he had not really learned how to make alchemy, he was on the path beside the Qishu Forest.
, turned into a withered skeleton!
This also made Zhang Qi think: It seems that alchemy is also a path he should consider? This chapter has been completed!
