When Lei Xingkong led the little girl back to the inn, everyone in the caravan had finished their work and most of them were asleep.
The little girl kept yawning on the way back, and soon fell asleep after climbing onto the bunk.
On the contrary, Lei Xingkong was not sleepy, so he found a large bathtub, heated up hot water, and took a hot bath alone in the bathroom.
After staying in Lianyun Mountain for many days, it was not that I didn't go without bathing. It was just that the water in the mountain stream was cold. Even though Lei Xingkong was not afraid of freezing cold, there was still no hot water for bathing.
Sitting in the bathtub, Lei Xingkong let his body soak in the hot water. All the pores in his body opened and began to absorb the earth's energy.
The Canglong energy inside the body circulates slowly...
One day a week!
"Huh?"
Lei Xingkong's heart moved and he couldn't help but be startled.
For some reason, he just felt that when he absorbed the earth energy this time, he got more earth energy than usual.
"There is no reason for this. This is Qingtian City. There are many people and mixed atmosphere. The earth energy that can be absorbed should be less than in the mountains. How come the earth energy absorbed today is actually higher than that in Lianyun Mountain a few days ago?"
How long does it take?" Lei Xingkong was puzzled.
After thinking about it, he tried to use the Canglong energy to absorb the earth energy again... Sure enough, he got the same result as before, and he really got more earth energy.
How could this happen?
Lei Xingkong couldn't understand, so he could only ask the little god for advice.
After listening to Lei Xingkong's story, Xiao Shen was silent for a while and then said: "This should not be the result of your improvement in cultivation. I can't figure out why."
"Ah?" Lei Xingkong was surprised.
This is the first time a question has appeared, and even the little gods cannot answer it.
The little god demanded: "Try to absorb the earth energy again and let me see."
"good!"
Lei Xingkong followed his words and got lucky again, absorbing the earth's energy.
A week later, I still got the same result.
The little god thought for a while and said: "I just took a closer look. When you are lucky, your mind is clear and the inner energy circulates more smoothly without any obstruction... Well, this situation seems to be because of your heart.
It’s a strange situation that only occurs when certain obsessions are broken, and I can’t explain it clearly..."
"What? Get rid of obsession?"
Lei Xingkong was immediately startled, his mind racing.
The words of the little god made him recall that when he came out of the Treasure Pavilion, he decided not to think about the hot things anymore because he put aside the greed in his heart... At that time, he made this decision.
For a moment, he just felt like he was relieved, and he didn't think about it too much...
Xiao Shen explained: "Ordinary people always have seven emotions and six desires. If you want to achieve a clear mind, you must cut off these seven emotions and six desires one by one. This cutting off does not mean that you must have no seven emotions and six desires at all, but that you must control them and not
Be controlled by this passion, otherwise if you are deceived by inner demons at an important moment in your cultivation, and your mind is trapped in the seven emotions and six desires, you may go astray, or at least it will be difficult to improve your cultivation throughout your life."
Listening to the little god's words, Lei Xingkong vaguely felt that his so-called getting rid of his obsession seemed to be the "decision" he made in his heart when he left the Treasure Collection Pavilion.
"Is that what the little god said about getting rid of obsession? How could it be? This is considered as getting rid of obsession? This can also enhance the cultivation level? Is it too mysterious?" Lei Xingkong was in a trance and couldn't be sure for a moment.
Sensing Lei Xingkong's thoughts, the little god said with certainty: "It should be that one. The improvement of this state of mind is very different from the improvement of cultivation realm. Cultivation realm has form and quality, and the changes in the energy in the body are yours."
It can be felt, but the changes in the state of mind are so subtle that sometimes there is no way to know at all. It can only be felt from the slight differences in the changes in the mind orifices and the movement of energy during cultivation."
Lei Xingkong secretly memorized the little god's words while absorbing the earth's energy...
No matter what, it is always a good thing, not a bad thing, for the mind to become clearer and able to absorb more earth energy.
Therefore, he no longer thought about it.
…
After taking a bath, Lei Xingkong walked out of the bathroom.
Outside the bathroom, it was already midnight.
Inside the inn, except for a few high-hanging wind lanterns in the four corners, there was no extra light.
The courtyard where Lei Xingkong lived was completely dark, with no light at all.
Walking alone in the courtyard, the only sounds around me were the chirping of insects and the sound of big branches and leaves blowing in the night wind.
Sudden--
"careful!"
The little god screamed.
Lei Xingkong felt an inexplicable warning sign in his heart, causing him to stop suddenly.
"dangerous!"
At that moment, he felt as if an extremely sharp needle was piercing his back, making his hair stand on end and making him extremely uncomfortable.
next moment--
He was as fast as a wild beast in the forest. He turned sideways very quickly and rolled away from the ground.
"Whoosh!"
A ray of sword light passed through where he was standing just now.
Lei Xingkong was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. Before he could stand still, he immediately exerted force and rolled away again.
"Whoosh!"
The sword light followed him like a shadow, stabbing him continuously at the spot where he appeared a moment ago.
After turning over twice in a row, Lei Xingkong took a deep breath of air, quickly concentrated all his strength on his left fist, and blasted out...
"boom!"
The energy was so strong that it made an extremely dull sound.
The sword light that was about to stab him was blocked by his fist.
In an instant, Lei Xingkong saw clearly.
The owner of that sword light was a man dressed in black.
The man in black was extremely short, only as tall as an ordinary six- or seven-year-old boy, but the sinister look in his only exposed eyes was definitely not that of a boy.
What's even more peculiar is that the small sword in his hand has a short and slender blade, but is extremely sharp and bright.
"scare!"
A soft drink.
Lei Xing spat out his fists with his bare hands, and the Canglong energy burst out from his body again.
"snort……"
The man in black groaned and took a few steps back.
Lei Xingkong did not take advantage of the situation to attack. Instead, he took a step back and adjusted his breath slightly.
What happened just now happened suddenly. Although I could react very quickly and gather my energy to drive back the man in black, it was too hasty after all, and my inner breath could easily become disordered.
Therefore, taking a step back is helpful to continue fighting.
Of course, Lei Xingkong deliberately kept a short distance from the man in black and did not allow the other party to escape.
The man in black looked Lei Xingkong up and down, feeling extremely surprised at this moment.
He is Leng Er sent by Boss Qi to kill Lei Xingkong. The surprise move just now was his perfect strike. He originally thought that sword was enough to kill Lei Xingkong, but he didn't expect that Lei Xingkong would be like this.
He was so alert that he dodged the moment the sword tip pierced him, and was able to take the opportunity to fight back, which was beyond his expectation.
"This kid is really not simple, but this way we have to kill him tonight, otherwise he will definitely be a disaster when we rob the caravan!" Leng Er looked at Lei Xingkong calmly, and secretly calculated: "
Since the assassination fails, then use that trick!"
The dagger in his hand was slightly moved horizontally, Leng Er suddenly stepped forward, and at the same time, the dagger was thrust out with Lei Xingkong in mind.
"Whoosh!"
The sword thrust came very quickly, but in Lei Xingkong's eyes, it didn't matter.
He was so angry that his Dantian was as strong as Yue Zhen, and he immediately punched him in the head.
His punches were faster and stronger than the sword of the man in black.
At this moment——
Halfway through the sword, Leng Er flicked it, and two small holes were opened from the ears of the sword.
"Chi", "Chi"!
From those two holes, two clouds of black smoke spewed out, directly hitting Lei Xingkong's face.
"ah?"
Lei Xingkong was startled when he saw this, he had no time to dodge, he held his breath in a hurry, but he still smelled some strange fragrance emanating from the black smoke, which made people feel dizzy.
poisonous?!
Lei Xingkong's hair was fierce, he gritted his teeth, and regardless of the black smoke and poisonous gas, he stepped forward and hit the enemy hard with his fists.
"boom!"
With a muffled sound, Leng Er was punched by Lei Xingkong and fell away.
At the same time, Lei Xingkong flew forward and jumped far out of the black smoke.
"You are dead!"
Leng Er snorted coldly, quickly got up from the ground, ducked, quickly crossed the courtyard wall, and fled.
"We can't chase him, let's adjust his breath and detoxify him!" Lei Xingkong looked at the other person's fleeing figure, his thoughts changing rapidly.
After waiting for a while and making sure that no one was around, he sat down and used his luck to resolve the poisonous gas inhaled into his body.
