The waiting period was a long time for everyone on and under the tree. Liu Duo was eager to wait for good news to snatch the Nine Dragon Pillar, while Shao Xi was squatting on the tree anxiously and could only watch them go. There was nothing he could do about setting fire in the temple, because if he came down from the tree at this time, his plan would be ruined.
Shao Xi had some selfish motives. If he had prevented the Tongshan Five Ghosts' plan from the beginning and warned Taichang Sect in time, he could have effectively prevented the Nine Dragon Pillars from being taken away. However, he was also exposed to Taichang Sect. Now he wants to It’s too late to hide from them! How could he jump out on his own?
Human nature is like this. When they have not suffered any losses, they may not appreciate your help. Only in times of crisis will your timely action reflect its due value.
Since ancient times, people's hearts have been unpredictable. You can't just be a good person in everything, you must have good standards.
Although Shao Xi considers himself not a bad person and is willing to do some heroic deeds, he also thinks that people should be treated in the same way.
Just like this time, if he had taken action in time to stop the actions of the Five Ghosts of Tongshan, Taichangjiao would naturally be more or less grateful to him, but it would not be enough to cover up the hatred for him due to the theft. Only when there is a certain loss, Shao Xi's help can make the group of Taoist priests taught by Taichang seriously weigh the choice between grudges and grudges.
Don't place your wealth and life on other people's conscience, because not everyone has that thing, so when Shao Xi squatted on the tree and saw the fire in the Four Palaces in Taiqing Temple from a distance, he didn't have much in his heart. Feelings of guilt.
As the fire grew larger and larger, the sky in the direction of the Four Palaces was illuminated by fire from a distance, and you could even see groups of flames rising up. At this time, warning bells and noisy shouts could be vaguely heard in Taiqing Temple.
Not long after the fire broke out in Taiqing Temple, Shao Xi saw Liu Hai, the third of the Tongshan Five Ghosts, flying back from a distance.
Liu Hai came under the tree and said to Liu Duo excitedly: "Brother, I have found out the resting place of the disciples in the temple. It is in the northwest corner of Taiqing Temple. At this time, many disciples are rushing to the east where the fire broke out. If brother rushes now, it will be a good time to find Li Qingxuan to seize the Nine Dragon Pillar."
"Third brother, are you sure? We only have this one chance to make a move."
"Don't worry! Brother, I looked very carefully, and I can't be wrong. After a while, you will go towards the northwest corner of Taiqing Temple, and you will see a large courtyard, where the disciples of Taichang Sect are A place to rest.”
"Okay! I'll go right away. You stay here and wait for your second brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother. After meeting, we will rush over together. Today we must get the Nine Dragon Pillar."
Liu Hai slapped his chest and said, "I understand, brother, go ahead! Leave the rest to us, and nothing will go wrong."
"I'm going."
After saying that, Liu Duo rushed towards the northwest corner of Taiqing Temple, leaving Liu Hai alone under the big poplar tree.
Shao Xi squatted on the tree and smiled to himself, "Nothing can go wrong yet, and I am the one you are going to make trouble with. No matter how loud the cowhide blow was just now, your faces will be beaten in pain soon."
Seeing Liu Duo's figure disappear into the night, Shao Xi felt that the time was almost up. If he didn't take action, he would not have a chance to do it until Liu Song came back with Liu Ju and Liu Tang.
Shao Xi glanced at his bangs under the tree with the faint light from the fire in the distance, and saw that he was sitting on the ground and resting against the big poplar tree. Maybe it was because he had been running a little hastily just now. At this moment, he Slightly out of breath.
This was a good opportunity. Shao Xi patted the back of Lao Wu's hand, signaling that he was about to take action. Old Wu also understood what Shao Xi meant and squatted on the tree without moving. He only waited for Shao Xi to succeed before discussing how to deal with the man under the tree.
Shao Xi faced the right position on the tree, and then jumped towards the bangs under the tree.
The Five Ghosts of Tongshan had not noticed anyone on the tree from the beginning, and they had already begun to take action at this time. Not only did Liu Hai not expect that there was anyone in the tree, it was even less likely that the target of the person in the tree was himself.
Shao Xi fell from the tree very quickly and with very little movement. At this time, Liu Hai was raising his hand to wipe his sweat. For a moment, he didn't even notice that someone had fallen beside him. When he realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
When he noticed someone falling beside him, he just heard the sound of wind and the rustling of clothes brought out by Shao Xi from the tree. He was about to raise his head to see who it was, but before he could see clearly, he was stopped by Shao Xi. Xi pressed his forehead and pushed his head hard against the tree.
With just a "thud" sound, he lost consciousness and collapsed. From beginning to end, he didn't even see Shao Xi.
The whole action was quick and agile, without any sloppiness. Lao Wu squatted on the tree and felt the tree shaking, and thought to himself: "This kid is very ruthless."
One of them jumped down from the tree, stood next to Shao Xi and asked, "What are you going to do next? Those three will be back soon."
"What else can we do? The Nine Dragon Holding Pillar must not be taken away by them under any circumstances, and this guy cannot leave him here. Otherwise, when the three come back, they will know that something is wrong, and it will be troublesome after waking him up. How about you? Tie him up and find a place to hide him first!"
"You don't want me to carry him away, do you? How old am I and you still use me as a coolie?"
"What else? You go and stop that guy from seizing the Nine Dragon Pillars, and I carry him?"
When Lao Wu heard this, he immediately shrank back. joke! It would be better to let him fight than to just let him die.
"Oh -! Okay! You should be careful yourself, that guy doesn't seem to be that easy to deal with. Don't beat a dog like a meat bun, there will be no return."
"I know, you talk a lot!"
After saying that, without waiting for Old Wu to say anything else, Shao Xi turned around and chased after Liu Duo in the direction where he disappeared, leaving only Old Wu and Liu Hai paralyzed on the ground.
"This brat always gives me this tiring job every time. Is he doomed to do hard work because he doesn't know how to fight?"
He muttered in his mouth, but Lao Wu's hands were not idle at all. He took off a cloth belt from his waist and tied Liu Hai's hands and feet tightly. He bent down and put the person on his shoulders, and walked deep into the woods. Go everywhere.
Because he had heard the location of the courtyard where the Taichang disciples were in the tree before, Shao Xi did not deliberately look for Liu Duo along the way, but went straight to the destination, which was where he was going anyway.
Arriving at the courtyard, Shao Xi jumped into the courtyard and saw that the courtyard was really not small! I think there should be quite a few disciples living in this courtyard.
However, the entire courtyard seemed quiet at this time, which was in sharp contrast to the noisy and chaotic sounds in the place where the fire broke out. It seems that all the disciples in the courtyard rushed to put out the fire, which was indeed the perfect opportunity to steal the Nine Dragon Holding Pillar. Chance.
Shao Xi didn't take two steps forward when he heard the sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping. Zhao was knocked down, but I didn’t know who it was.
Liu Duo was almost in the room. Shao Xi rushed towards the room without even having time to think. As soon as he got outside the door, he heard someone talking inside the room. When he heard that the voice was Li Qingxuan.
"What a bold maniac. He actually entered Taiqing Temple at night, set fire to others, and snatched the Nine Dragon Pillars. Do you really think that Taichangjiao is easy to bully?"
I heard that his strength was weak. Li Qingxuan must have been seriously injured at this moment?
At this time, Liu Duo's voice came again.
"Hahaha! I didn't expect it to be so successful. I thought I would have to search for a while, but I didn't expect you, a little Taoist priest, to even save the fire for this thing. It really saved me a lot of trouble. With this Nine Dragon Holding Pillar I will hopefully advance to the 'Qi Transformation Realm', and when that time comes, let alone you guys, there are not many people in the world of martial arts that I can take seriously."
"Hmph! Dream about your Spring and Autumn Dream! This Nine Dragon Holding Pillar is the most prosperous thing in the world. Without the water of Wulong Pond in my Wulong Mountain, anyone who takes this thing will definitely die of heart and lung burning. Even if you take it away, you will only bring about your own destruction."
"It's just water. The world is so big. Where can I find water that is the same as the water in Wulongtan? Don't use your Wulongtan as a magical place to deceive the world. It's just wishful thinking to deceive me. I will kill you first and take the Nine Dragon Holding Pillar first."
When Shao Xi heard this outside the door, he was heartbroken! This Liu Duo is going to kill Li Qingxuan! Things are still secondary. Li Qingxuan is the direct disciple of Tai Changjiao's Sun Yat-sen. Seeing that his attitude is trained according to the future successor of the teacher, what if he kills him?
Then I thought about it, if I could save Li Qingxuan at this moment, wouldn't it be equivalent to saving the future headmaster of Taichang Sect? In this way, the grudge between myself and Wulongshan should be resolved, right?
Thinking of this, Shao Xi jumped into the room without much thought, unsheathed the Liuyun Sword on his waist, and pushed away the weird-shaped knife that Liu Duo was holding in his hand and was about to slash at Li Qingxuan.
At this time, Li Qingxuan was sitting on the ground, with blood hanging from the corners of his mouth. He was holding a package tightly in his right hand. He knew what was inside without even thinking. While Liu Duo was raising his knife to slash at Li Qingxuan, his left hand was grabbing the package and pulling it into his arms, trying to snatch it away.
Neither of the two people in the room expected that there was a third person present. Shao Xi's appearance was sudden to both of them, and they were completely unprepared.
After Shao Xi pushed Liu Duo's knife away with a sword, he took advantage of the situation and moved the sword towards the package.
Because the two of them were snatching the package, the cloth had already been stretched tightly. When Shao Xi picked it up with his sword, the entire package was split into two halves, and the nine-dragon holding pillar in the cloth was lifted into the air.
While the two of them were in a daze due to shock, Shao Xi used the "Flower Dance" to instantly flash in front of Li Qingxuan, and immediately hugged the nine dragons in his hands.
Because the incident happened suddenly, and Shao Xi's back was turned to Li Qingxuan, so Li Qingxuan didn't know who suddenly appeared at this time.
Liu Duo, who was facing Shao Xi, was shocked. He never expected that someone would play the trick with him.
"Who are you, how dare you ruin my good deeds?"
"I'm daddy! Call daddy!"
