To explain what happened, we naturally have to go back in time.
Lei Xian took the book that Bu Yannuo asked him to give to Qian Chao, and walked all the way to Song Feng Tower, which was brightly lit and full of guests.
As a casual cultivator who once lived at the lowest level of Ruixuan Town, Lei Xian is still full of awe of Song Feng Tower. Just tonight, Bu Yannong paid him his first month's salary, which was a total of seven spiritual stones. This was much more than he had thought before, so he was naturally happy. But with the seven spiritual stones he just got, he couldn't even afford a decent meal in the Song Feng Tower. Therefore, looking at the brilliant lights of the Song Feng Tower, he always felt a little shabby in his heart. . In fact, let alone him now, even if nothing happens to his Lei family, his elders are still alive. If he came to Ruixuan Town, they would be reluctant to rest in Songfeng Tower, if for no other reason than Because it's so expensive there.
He had also observed the man named Qian carefully today. He was easy-going, gentle and had no airs at all. Except for his pair of dark eyes that surprised Lei Xian, he was not at all like the master of weapon refining that Bu Yannong said. look. But Bu Yannong has always been respectful to the man named Qian, and his words are quite complimentary. This is the first time that he has seen his somewhat arrogant boss behave like this, and this cannot be faked; Then, the man surnamed Qian took out many more spiritual weapons on the spot. Lei Xian also had some discernment. After watching coldly, he recognized that those were indeed rare and exquisite products. It seemed that the spiritual weapons "made by Qian" were indeed From this person's hand.
It seems that there are always great benefits to specializing in one art. Lei Xian couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. The Lei family's success in the Bianzhou cultivation world relied on the art of alchemy. It is said that the Lei family's elixirs were made At that time, he was very popular, and there were many noble friends in the Lei family, so it was very lively. It is a pity that the ancestors created such a great reputation but the descendants of the Lei family could not maintain it. After the glory of the family, it began to gradually decline. Each generation was not as good as the last, and finally it was ridiculous that it was reduced to the great alchemy family that it was. Now, Later generations of the family and nephews had to go out to buy elixirs to maintain their practice. In the end, the name of the Lei family was only found in a book called "Alchemy Cleansing Record". That book was compiled by the ancestors of the Lei family with all their efforts. Among them, There are some exquisite elixir recipes, and what's more, there are also refining methods for different cauldrons used to refine different elixirs. They are really precious. Unfortunately, the family is not strong enough and has hidden treasures, which will naturally attract people to covet them. , and because of this, the Lei family eventually ended up being wiped out.
This is why their conversation after Bu Yannong found the "spiritual earthworm mud" for the man named Qian attracted Lei Xian's special attention.
When it comes to alchemy cauldrons, those recorded in the "Alchemy Cleansing Record" are the best. Although Lei Xian himself does not know how to make alchemy, let alone refine weapons, he firmly believes in this based on his trust in the family inheritance.
But what's the use? The luck of the Lei family seems to have been completely predicted in advance by the ancestors who founded the Lei family. After that, the attainments of the people of the Lei family in alchemy plummeted, especially Lei Xian. He knew nothing about the art of alchemy. The reason why he escaped from the Lei family where the fire was raging and corpses were lying on the bed with the "Alchemy Cleansing Record" in his arms was because it was the inheritance of the Lei family and could not be left behind by those closest relatives who would kill him. Kill them all in the hands of the evildoers!
But what to do next?
You can't really hide in Ruixuan Town like this for the rest of your life.
But since meeting Dai Xiao here, Lei Xian really thought that there was a trap set by those people outside Ruixuan Town waiting for him to get into, which made him dare not leave Ruixuan Town.
Take it one step at a time, stay here for a while, and save some spiritual stones. When those evil people relax and the wind is not so tight, you can find a chance to escape. By then, the world of cultivation will be vast. Where can't I hide myself? Really desperate, Lei Xian thought, then find a well-known family with a good reputation, go to the house to present books, and just ask for a place to stay. I think it should be no problem to have a good life for the rest of my life.
I was thinking about my own thoughts randomly, and when I looked up again, I saw the brightly lit Song Feng Tower in front of me. Many people dressed as waiters were smiling at the door, and the lively sounds of people drinking and drinking in the hall were mixed with the charming aroma of wine and coriander. Floated out together.
The Song Feng Building is busy until midnight almost every day, so the first and second floors are basically full even though it is almost midnight.
Lei Xian asked a clerk at the door where Qian Chao from the Wuling Sect lived. The clerk at the door didn't know for a while, but after Lei Xian explained his intention, he found another clerk for him to find out.
"You're talking about Senior Brother Qian Chao, right here. They just went upstairs not long ago. Come, I'll accompany you. They do stay here every time..."
The waiter enthusiastically led Lei Xian upstairs.
When Lei Xian stepped onto the stairs, he looked around very unintentionally and casually. After all, it was his first time to enter the Song Feng Building. He was very envious of all the luxurious furnishings in the building, and even wanted to take the opportunity to take a peek. Take a look at the delicacies on the table of those who are toasting happily.
It was that casual glance that glanced at the main entrance downstairs. Naturally, there were still the few waiters standing there, but there was one more person looking up at him...
At this glance, Lei Xian recognized the man's face clearly, and immediately felt that his whole body was frosty and cold, and his back felt like he was carrying a heavy bag full of ice cubes on his bare spine. In general, not only is it difficult to walk, but also the whole body is cold!
"Brother, let's go, they are on the third floor." The guy leading the way reminded Lei Xian when he saw that he had almost stopped walking.
"Oh, okay..." Lei Xian responded dryly, and then walked up with heavy steps.
The owner of that face naturally noticed that Lei Xian had discovered him, and seemed a little annoyed, as if he was angry with himself for being careless, but the look he met Lei Xian was full of vicious threats.
They... actually chased them here!
Could it be that he has been hiding in Ruixuan Town, making those people impatient, and now they are finally going to attack him?
Lei Xian naturally recognized that face. As early as when the Lei family was still there, that face and several other people were considered his father's friends. From time to time, they would get together at home and have drinks and talk. At that time, the face was still smiling, and he was always called "good nephew", and he also wanted to be addressed as "Uncle Dai". But it was also that face, and of course there were several other faces that Lei Xian could not forget until he died. Those people originally had gentle smiles on their faces, but in the blink of an eye, their ferocious true faces were revealed, swords and blood... In the blink of an eye, the Lei family was gone and destroyed in the hands of those people. Lei Xian still remembered that he was lucky enough to be hiding in a secret place, listening to those people outside asking him about the whereabouts of "Xi Dan Lu" and his My parents actually preferred to die rather than tell them, probably because they knew that even if they told them, they would die. Later, after those people left angrily, Lei Xian emerged from the ruins, ran to the family secret room, took out the "Alchemy Cleansing Record", and then escaped from Bianzhou. From then on, he became a casual cultivator until today.
And tonight, that face appeared again. Needless to say, it was Dai Xiao who sent the news back, so these guys came here. I guess they must be dead, right?
snort!
Even if you die, you can't let those guys succeed.
As mentioned before, Lei Xian worked in Bu Yannong's shop. Since he was a casual cultivator, when writing the contract, he had to take some of his valuables to Chengming Building as pledge. If Lei Xian secretly Bu Yannong's things escaped, and the pledged things were returned to Bu Yannong to make up for his losses. Even though Lei Xian had become a casual cultivator, as a son of a former aristocratic family, he always had a few things on him, no matter how difficult it was. He couldn't bear to take out the good things for sale. After all, it was his inseparable thoughts about the Lei family, but it was okay to use them as pledges in Chengming Building. After all, he could take them out when he left. Therefore, Lei Xian's most important thing was The important object...the "Alchemy Cleansing Record"...is still hidden by him.
"Dong dong dong" the guy knocked on a door.
The door was opened by a pretty woman, whom Lei Xian had seen in the shop. He knew her surname was Tang. The waiter said a few words, and the woman surnamed Tang looked at Lei Xian curiously and let him into the room. .
All five people were there, but Lei Xian didn't have much time to think about it at this time, so he bowed his head and saluted to cover up the change in his expression, and said:
"Brother Qian, Boss Bu asked me to come here. He said that he forgot to give you two books during the day. He just found them after searching, so he asked me to send them over."
Qian Chao naturally remembered that the guy in front of him was Bu Yan'an's new recruit. Unexpectedly, he was not there, so he said:
"Thank you very much."
Then Lei Xian handed over the two books in his hands. The one on top was his own "Alchemy Cleansing Record". At this time, he felt three points of reluctance and seven points of desolation in his heart.
…
Just when Lei Xian entered Qian Chao's room, there were several people standing on the roof of a house outside Song Feng Tower, coldly staring at every move in Qian Chao's house.
As mentioned before, the Tian family has made a decision. The first is not to let Qian Chao go, and the second is still not to cooperate with Wen Liang.
Because of this, the Tian family spent a lot of thought and laid out many complicated situations. They used people to trust people and then trusted people again. They turned many corners and found many shady people in the process. They only started at the beginning. After showing his face, he finally found a few foundation-building casual cultivators from the cultivation world who were accustomed to doing that kind of business without any business to help him.
The reason for such a huge effort was that the Tian family's original intention was naturally not to involve themselves. After the Lingshihua went out, many links were naturally broken in the relationship chain between the loose cultivators they were looking for. In the future, even if the Five Spirit Sect After tracing it, we can't trace the Tian family anyway. After all, dead people don't speak.
Although this is safer, it also has a disadvantage, that is, the few foundation-building casual cultivators who were hired to assassinate Qian Chao didn't know who they were working for. Anyway, they just took a large deposit first, so naturally It was a large sum of spirit stones. At the same time, I also got a portrait. The picture on it was the target. Naturally, it was the money rush. The next step was to look for opportunities to sneak into the Five Spirits Sect and find the boy in the painting. , kill it, and then go get the remaining spirit stones.
These casual cultivators have actually been in Ruixuan Town for more than ten days. As a foundation-building monk...even a casual cultivator...it is too easy to deal with a Qi-refining monk. Speaking of which, there are many foundation-building monks. They all disdain to fight against Qi Refining cultivators, but because they are casual cultivators, they don't have this taboo. As long as the spiritual stones given to them can make them tempted, it doesn't matter what they are asked to do.
But the most difficult thing about this matter is definitely not to attack that boy. The most difficult thing is how to enter the Five Spirit Sect and find the boy.
These foundation-building casual cultivators tried several times to sneak into the Wuling Sect in Ruixuan Town, but they all failed. Qian Chao and the five others also broke into the Wuling Sect and killed people. Zuo You, who I met by chance, had almost no difficulty chasing seven casual cultivators into the Five Spirits Sect with his Qi refining skills. The Five Spirits cultivators on duty in Ruixuan Town ignored this at all. But these casual cultivators who built the foundation were very different. Several of them also broke in, but they were immediately noticed by the monks in Ruixuan Town and followed them all the way. The Five Spirit Builders on duty in Ruixuan Town The foundation cultivators are all good players with their own cultivation and means. What's more, they are not searching alone, but with many people. As a last resort, these foundation-building casual cultivators have gone around in circles with them, and it's not easy. They managed to keep their tracks and managed to escape back to Ruixuan Town with great reluctance. After several failed infiltrations, these foundation-building casual cultivators did not dare to try again, because every time they did so, the situation became more and more dangerous, and those five The footsteps of the spiritual cultivator are also getting faster and faster, and if you are not careful, you will be blocked and intercepted by others.
And this is the main reason why Xu Sheng has been worried and busy these days. There are unidentified foundation-building monks in the town trying to break in. If they really do it, no matter what those people did in the sect, it will be He was derelict in his duty, but those guys were very cunning. Firstly, they could not be caught, and secondly, their identity was always unknown, which made Xu Sheng feel angry!
Also annoyed were these casual cultivators of foundation building, but things changed so suddenly. Just when these guys were at their wits' end, they accidentally met Qian who was coming out of Yiming Pavilion on the street. Chao, some people thought at that time why that thin guy looked so familiar?
Suddenly I woke up, wasn't that the qi-refining boy in the portrait that I wanted to get rid of!
It really took no effort at all. I was worried that I couldn't find him, but I didn't expect him to appear in Ruixuan Town.
Then they stared secretly all the way, watching Qian Chao enter Song Feng Tower, have dinner there, and then go upstairs to rest. So these guys found a place to hide outside on the roof facing Qian Chao's room. , continued to stare at the movement in the room, until later he saw someone entering the boy's room.
At this time, several people suddenly appeared on the roof where they were monitoring Qian Chao, and this shocked the casual foundation-building cultivators.
Exposed?
This must be the case. In the past few days, the Five Spirits Foundation-Building monks in Ruixuan Town are secretly looking for a few of them. Many Five Spirits Sect Foundation-Building monks are wandering around the town openly and covertly. This is why these few The casual cultivators were sure, but they didn't expect that just when they discovered their target, they themselves would also be discovered!
What they didn't even expect was that these people who suddenly jumped up were not the foundation-building monks of the Five Spirit Sect they thought at all!
Those people were the foundation-building monks from four aristocratic families in Bianzhou, and they came to keep an eye on Lei Xian.
But those foundation-building monks didn't know it. They just thought that they were exposed, so they could only seize the time and escape quickly. But even if they were exposed, they had to try everything before leaving. It was a big deal. Where is the spirit stone, and the one in the room is just a little guy who is refining his energy. In one blow, that kid will definitely die without a whole body!
The few people in Bianzhou didn't expect that there were people on the roof staring at it. They were also extremely guilty now. Within a few breaths after getting on the roof, they became extremely wary of each other, but right after In that room, with the light inside and the eyesight of the foundation-building monks, they could clearly see that Lei Xian was holding two books in both hands and respectfully handed them to a boy. The one on top... seemed... not , no, it seems, that is exactly the "Cleaning Alchemy Record" they dream of!
The unidentified foundation-building monk next to him had already taken action, and he rushed over aggressively!
Do you want to snatch the "Cleaning Alchemy Record"?
Never allow it!
So some of the foundation-building monks in Bianzhou also took action, trying to grab the "Alchemy Cleansing Record" before the person in front, and then immediately escape from Ruixuan Town!
This is why the chaos in the night began!
