It was dusk, and a ray of setting sun hung on the western horizon as if it couldn't bear to leave. Under the burning sunset, smoke from every household was rising.
As soon as Xiaoyu returned to her dormitory after dinner, a tall girl approached her.
"Are you Ling Xiaoyu? A fellow countryman is looking for you at the gate of the martial arts academy."
"Looking for me? Didn't you say you were looking for Brother Changsheng?"
"I didn't mention anyone else, let's go, senior sister will take you out."
There were quite a few students coming and going outside the Wuyuan Gate, but no acquaintances from Tianqing County were seen. Xiaoyu felt something was wrong and turned around to walk back to the martial arts academy.
"If you don't want that handyman to die, just follow me." A tall girl's voice came from behind, and Xiaoyu stopped without hesitation.
After a cup of tea, Changsheng had just finished his work and returned to the handyman's room.
"Hey, who is that? Someone asked you to go to the red bamboo forest, and you said you would regret it if you didn't go." Old Chen, the concierge, stopped him.
regret? Changsheng first thought of Xiaoyu, and hurriedly found a bamboo cutting knife and rushed out of the side gate of the martial arts academy without saying a word and rushed into the red bamboo forest.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu." Changsheng shouted loudly while running in the red bamboo forest.
"Are you the handyman?"
A thin young man in a gray shirt appeared in front of him. Changsheng held the bamboo chopping knife tightly, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated: "Where is Xiaoyu? What did you do to her?"
"Follow me obediently, and you will see me later."
After about half a cup of tea, Changsheng finally saw Xiaoyu tied to a red bamboo.
Xiaoyu had a ball of cotton stuffed in her mouth and struggled to make a sound of "um" after seeing Chang Sheng. Standing next to him was a buck-toothed young man.
Looking at the buck teeth, a layer of cold sweat seeped out of Changsheng's forehead.
Compared with the tension of Changsheng, the buck-toothed young man was extremely calm and calm: "One has just entered the stage of Qi refining, and the other is still a mortal? What kind of shameful deeds have you two done? People insist on asking for it." Your lives?"
"Two seniors, we are really insignificant in your eyes. There are more than 400 spiritual jade here. Please let us live. We will fly far away and never come back to Mingque. You just need to tell your employer that he has killed us. That’s it.”
Changsheng said as he took out a storage bag. Naturally, these spiritual jades were obtained from Yuan Zheng and others a few days ago. He knew that he and Xiaoyu had no chance of escaping in front of these two people, and he only hoped that the two of them would let them live for Lingyu's sake.
"Haha, a mortal can actually have more than 400 spiritual jade? Okay, we want the spiritual jade, but we also need your lives. And."
Buck Teeth smiled evilly: "And we received two payments, one for killing you, and the other for letting you watch us torture this girl to death before killing you. What do you think we should do? Torture her?"
After saying that, both the buck-toothed and gray-shirted young man laughed.
The harsh laughter made Chang Sheng's eyes turn red all of a sudden.
"I created your ancestors!" With a roar, Chang Sheng raised his bamboo cutting knife and rushed towards Buck Tooth.
Bucktooth didn't expect that this mortal with no cultivation would actually take action. He laughed loudly again in surprise and didn't even move.
However, Changsheng's knife did not cut down on him. Instead, the blade turned and chopped the red bamboo binding Xiaoyu with a click.
"Xiaoyu, run." Changsheng yelled, and at the same time, he slashed at Bucktooth with the rotating knife.
Even if a soul is produced, even if the soul is special. But his body has no cultivation, how can the sword of immortality be so fast as to go through the buck teeth?
Before the knife fell, Bucktooth slapped Changsheng's left shoulder with his palm. While Changsheng twisted to dodge, he turned his hand and slashed the back of the young man in gray shirt with his knife.
The young man in gray shirt was caught off guard. A moderately deep knife mark appeared on his right shoulder, and a few drops of blood slowly spilled out.
At this moment, Bucktooth froze on the spot. How could a mortal with no cultivation avoid his attack?
At the same time, the eyes of the young man in gray shirt were filled with fear.
Not only was a mortal capable of breaking through his true energy protection and slashing him, but what was even more incredible was that all the true energy in his body drained away the moment he was slashed, and not even a trace of the sea of qi in his dantian was left.
Changsheng was also stunned for a moment, because he clearly felt a flow of air beginning to slowly circulate in his dantian.
The young man in gray shirt stood there blankly, somewhat at a loss, and his face began to age visibly to the naked eye. Within a few breaths, he became very old and collapsed limply on the ground.
At this time, Bucktooth had already passed through immortality like lightning. He grabbed Xiaoyu and said in shock: "Ageing instantly? What did you~~~~did you do to him?"
"Let Xiaoyu go, I'll let you go."
Changsheng pretended to be calm, but before he finished speaking, the bucktooth suddenly slapped Xiaoyu on the back, and then swept back quickly.
"Xiaoyu."
Changsheng shouted, ran over and hugged the dying Xiaoyu tightly. At the same time, he quickly pulled down the storage bag on the waist of the young man in gray shirt, found a pill bottle from it, and poured two or three drops of pill liquid into Xiaoyu's mouth.
"Hold on, you must hold on, I will take you to the hospital right away."
Changsheng carried Xiaoyu on his back and ran towards the Wuyuan Academy. After entering the Wuyuan Academy, he ran straight towards the Wuyuan Hospital. But before running a few steps, the Molong Ring in the sea of consciousness sent out a sense.
Changsheng didn't think much, he couldn't help but took three steps and two steps at a time, and rushed into a courtyard sensed by Molong Jie with a hurried cry.
In the courtyard, a strong man was lying on a deck chair, smoking a long pipe. He was stunned when he saw Chang Sheng suddenly entering.
"Senior, please save her. I beg you, senior, please save her."
"You don't have an obstacle-avoiding spiritual object on you, how did you get in?" The big man was a little stunned. When he looked at Changsheng with his spiritual consciousness, his jaw dropped: "You? You are still a mortal?".
At this time, Xiaoyu's originally pale face began to turn yellow gradually, and there were continuous retching sounds in her throat.
As soon as the big man stretched out his hand, a piece of bone from the corner flew into Xiaoyu's body, and Xiaoyu's complexion immediately changed from sallow to the original pale. Then the big man put his hand on Xiaoyu's heart. After three or four breaths, Xiaoyu's face slowly turned rosy.
"There is no need to worry about her life. You need to send her to the Wuyuan Hospital. She should be fine after two or three months of treatment. By the way." The big man looked at Changsheng in confusion: "How did you get in without any cultivation? of?"
"You, your door was unlocked and I came in." Changsheng replied with a blank look on his face.
"You feel no discomfort after coming in?"
"No? It's normal. Please do your best to save my sister!"
"I told you to just send him to the hospital. Why are you staying in my slaughterhouse?"
"Slaughterhouse?" Changsheng was stunned for a moment.
"The yard next to the kitchen is not a butchery, is it still a bathhouse?"
Changsheng was a little stunned. He was originally going to the Wuyuan Hospital, but he didn't know what kind of demon possessed him, so he came in by accident. When he came in, he didn't even know that this was a slaughterhouse.
"Please senior, please do your best to save my sister?" Changsheng was a little at a loss for a moment.
"I'm talking about you? Others are afraid to avoid my slaughterhouse, why are you still there..."
As soon as the word "Lai" came out of his mouth, the big man suddenly stared at Changsheng and looked him up and down for a few seconds, and then said: "You can let me save her, but you have to stay in the slaughterhouse."
"Stay in the slaughterhouse?" Changsheng looked dumbfounded again.
"That's right, stay in the slaughterhouse and help me chop meat, deliver meat to the kitchen and so on. Those bastards in the kitchen don't even want to come to the entrance of the courtyard now. They are shouting for meat from all the way, and I have to deliver it myself. .”
Seeing that Changsheng was still stunned, the big man said again: "I'm really too lazy to go out to the courtyard. Although you are a mortal, you should have innate soul power, so you can resist the vicious atmosphere in my courtyard. You have been in the miscellaneous room for thousands of times a month. A silver coin, and I will give you 30 spiritual jades every month."
30 spiritual jade? Chang Sheng's eyes suddenly glowed green. One spiritual jade is worth 10,000 silver coins, and 30 spiritual jade is worth 300,000 silver coins! He only earns 3,000 silver coins per month in the handyman's house, and 30 spiritual jade is enough for him to work in the handyman's house for ten years.
"Okay, as long as senior can save Xiaoyu, I am willing to stay here."
"Well, my surname is Zhang, and I'm known as Zhang Tu. You don't need to tell me about it in the handyman room. You are just a mortal. It makes no difference to them whether or not you are there." The Han Dynasty glanced at the handyman card on Changsheng's waist. Take a look.
Changsheng had a black line on his forehead, but he still respectfully saluted the big man with cupped fists: "Junior Changsheng has no surname. I have met Mr. Tu."
"Well, how many generations has Wu lasted?"
"My father said it has been thousands of years, at least a hundred generations."
"There are more and more mortals now! However, it is extremely rare for mortals to possess natural soul power."
Mr. Tu then looked at Xiaoyu on the stone table: "She should have taken the healing elixir just now, but some of her meridians are still damaged. I don't have the elixir or elixir she can take, so you have to buy it."
"The meridians are damaged? Yes, there is elixir." Changsheng said and rummaged through the storage bag again, took out an elixir bottle and poured two or three drops of elixir into Xiaoyu's mouth.
"You are just born with soul power, how do you know that this elixir can heal this girl's meridians? Do you know what elixir this is?" Old Tu asked doubtfully.
"Me? I don't know its name, but I know it can heal Xiaoyu's meridians."
Changsheng really didn't know the name of the elixir. When his consciousness explored the young man's storage bag, the properties and effects of all the elixirs inside couldn't help but appear in his mind.
It felt like he was born with this knowledge.
Changsheng understood that these sudden cognitions must be related to the memories left to him by the dragon.
While he was stunned, the big man spoke again: "Forget it, you, a mortal, can have natural soul power, what else is impossible? Let this girl rest here first, and feed her with Luo Jin Dan Liquid and Body Healing Pill every day Liquid. Coupled with my use of her true energy pulse, it should be fine in seven or eight days."
"Thank you, Mr. Tu." Changsheng clasped his fists again and saluted Mr. Tu solemnly.
