Chapter 207, The night is quiet, a man and a woman alone
Seeing that Tang Yuan was stunned and slightly angry, Lu Feng glanced at the bamboo slips in his hand, guessed the reason, reached for the notebook, and started to read it.
On the note, the handwriting is delicate and graceful, and the writing style should be written by Xu Jiaoer. What is recorded in this book is the large and small events of Fuxi Village since its establishment.
For example, how many people were killed on that day, who was responsible for the robbery, and how much property was intercepted.
Another example is where jade and spiritual herbs were found in the mountains.
Lu Feng flipped through the pages with a stern look on his face and a hint of anger between his brows. He then turned through a few pages. Judging from the records, more than a hundred people were robbed and killed in Fuxi Village, including children and the elderly.
Lu Feng couldn't bear to look down. Just when he was about to close the notebook, he discovered the words "Fuxi Ancient Tomb" and continued reading out of curiosity.
The Fuxi knife in Fu Maotian's hand and the long sword in Xu Jiao'er's hand were originally obtained from the Fuxi ancient tomb. No wonder Xu Jiao'er's long sword was not damaged at all when he fought with Jun Ziyi. Even if the quality is not at the level of the Five Elements Horcrux, it is still considered top-notch among the Horcruxes.
And Ling Tian cut Fu Maotian's Fuxi knife in half with one strike. Putting aside the way of shaking the knife, Ling Tian's own long knife must also be of extremely high quality.
This made Lu Feng even more curious. A swordsman from a remote place not only knew how to use a sword, but also owned a long sword of a quality that even he could not recognize.
"Fuxi Shuangjue?" Lu Feng looked at the words "Fuxi Shuangjue" and "Swords Together" written in the manuscript, and was a little confused. He took Fu Maotian's broken knife and Xu Jiaoer's long sword and looked at them carefully.
"Look at this handle," Junzi Yi pointed at the handle of the long sword in Lu Feng's hand with eyes wide open.
Lu Feng lowered his head and took a closer look, and found that the handle of the long sword was intricately engraved with densely packed text. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was an article of exquisite sword skills.
"The grade is good, not inferior to your Feiquan Mingyu sword technique," Lu Feng smiled at Jun Ziyi and handed the long sword over. This Fuxi sword technique also has the power of soul skills and is worth learning from Jun Ziyi. .
The broken hilt of the Fuxi Sword also had a set of soul skill-level sword skills, and there was actually a subtle connection between the swords. In a combined battle, they could exert a power that was no less powerful than the Five Elements Skills.
Seeing this, Lu Feng couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, Fu Maotian was entangled, otherwise it would have been difficult for him and Xu Jiaoer to resist with their swords combined.
In addition to the skills that came with the sword, a large amount of jade materials and elixir herbs were also unearthed in the Fuxi Ancient Tomb, but they were later sold by Fu Maotian into soul coins.
But this unknown poison, which was enough to threaten the powerful people in the Five Elements Realm, was detained by the Third Master.
Lu Feng put away the Fuxi Broken Knife and took another book, which recorded the financial transactions of Fuxi Village. From it, Lu Feng finally understood the flow of the 20% of the funds.
The distribution of Fuxi Village's property was in the hands of the bandits who died before. Lu Feng had learned that 40% of the property obtained from the robbery belonged to the plunderers, 40% was put into the Fuxi Village warehouse for business needs, and the remaining 20% was not available to Lu Feng until now. I don't know, but it is clear from this account book.
"It's actually a collusion between officials and gangsters!" Lu Feng sneered, and the remaining 20% of the wealth actually went to the prison in Tianyuan City. No wonder the prison has been turning a blind eye to Fuxi Village.
Lu Feng put away the ledger to prepare for emergencies. Once Fuxi Village was eliminated, the prison government's financial resources were cut off in disguise. If the prison officer secretly looked for trouble, this ledger was enough to withstand it for a while.
Tang Yuan put away the bamboo slips, looked down the mountain in the direction of Tianyuan City, and said: "This secret method of the blood clan came from Tianyuan City. I don't know what is the situation of Ma Qiufeng and the others."
"Pack it up, let's go to Tianyuan City," Lu Feng walked towards the bodies of Fu Maotian and others, and took away the completion certificate required for the soul hunting mission. Ruoshui also roughly finished counting the belongings in Fu Maotina Ring, and found that there were more than eight million soul coins. One can imagine how many lives have been lost to the looting and mutilation of Fuxi Village over the years.
With the soul coin "picked up" from Fuxi Village, the bounty from this soul hunting mission was really not worth mentioning, so Lu Feng went to Junmanlou to get it with a little effort.
On the way back, Lu Feng and Jiang Ruoyun explained Ruoshui's origins. After the latter learned about Ruoshui's miserable life experience, he understood that Ruoshui's dependence on Lu Feng was not all about love, but was mixed with brother-sister love, and he also fell in love with the house. If the water begins to take care of it.
Calculating the time, it has been more than half a month since he came out of Black Ice Cliff. During this half month, Lu Feng has experienced too much, from killing Yang Wu in Ruoshui due to poisoning, to being investigated and interrogated by the spiritual prison, from assessing mentors, to suppressing the war. Due to changes in the environment, he went from Xiangjing to Qianfeng County, then to Tudao Island to skillfully kill the dry water beast, and finally took on the soul hunting mission to clear out Fuxi Village.
Along the way, everyone's temperament has become much stronger, and the strength of Tang Yuan and Ruoshui has also been greatly improved. The most joyful thing was the reunion with Jiang Ruoyun, which was completely unexpected.
The half-month appointment with Su Qing'er had arrived. Although Lu Feng was concerned about whether Shu Lao had arrived at the Spiritual Prison, since he would pass by Tianyuan City on his way back, he promised Su Qing'er to go to her house to see the formation, so he just happened to fulfill the agreement on the way.
After handing over the soul hunting mission, it was almost evening. Lu Feng and his party hurried to Songmu Town and stopped, looking for a store to rest.
In the evening, in order to celebrate Jun Ziyi's acquaintance and Jiang Ruoyun's return, everyone ordered a large table of wine and food, and everyone was tipsy before going back to their rooms to rest.
Late at night, everyone had gone to bed. Two figures sat quietly together in the courtyard of the inn. It was Lu Feng and Jiang Ruoyun who had been separated for many days.
During the day, Jiang Ruoyun was still calm, noble and elegant. Now when she was alone with Lu Feng, she had a hint of the playful, gentle and shy attitude of a young woman.
Because of the drink, Jiang Ruoyun's already fair and smooth cheeks had a hint of crimson. Under the moonlight, the white cheeks were flushed, making them look even more delicate and amiable.
In the quiet night, a lonely man and a widow reunited after a long separation. The two opened their hearts to each other through wine, and seemed to have endless words to say.
"What have you been through in the past few months?" Lu Feng didn't want to ask at first, but seeing the huge changes in Jiang Ruoyun's appearance, he was worried about the hidden dangers.
It would be fine if his temperament simply changed and he became more mature, but Jiang Ruoyun clearly seemed to have grown up a lot, which made people feel very surprised.
Jiang Ruoyun pursed her lips and smiled bitterly: "Although I was only missing for a few months in your world, in my world, three full years have passed."
Lu Feng looked at Jiang Ruoyun in surprise, a trace of thought flashed between his brows, and guessed: "Were you brought to the imitation realm by the expert who rescued you?"
Jiang Ruoyun nodded, then shook his head: "I was captured by the Blood Demon and was seriously injured and fell into a coma. Fortunately, the master passed by and rescued me." When he said this, Jiang Ruoyun's tone became more respectful, "The master put me in bed overnight to save me." I brought her back to her sect, and when I woke up three days later, although my injuries were mostly healed, the terrifying aura in my body returned, and the master even sacrificed his own cultivation in order to suppress it."
"In order to completely suppress the terrifying aura, the master used secret techniques and teamed up with several elders in the sect to set up a ban. However, the ban required enough time to arrange, so they had no choice but to place me in a simulated environment. Due to the time difference between inside and outside, it took many days to successfully deploy.”
"Later, although the ban was set up to suppress the terrifying aura, at that time I was too weak and my soul was not strong enough to leave rashly. Under the instructions of my master, I had to stay in the simulation to practice. This practice lasted two years. Many, it was not until recently that I broke through to the Dan Condensing Realm.”
There was a hint of regret in Jiang Ruoyun's words. Although time in the imitation realm was infinitely faster than the outside world, the cultivation speed and environment were far inferior to the outside world.
Lu Feng looked around Jiang Ruoyun. She no longer looked like an eighteen-year-old girl at the moment. She was much more mature, less immature, and more delicate and sexy.
"I'm 21 years old like you now," Jiang Ruoyun smiled happily, with a little blush on his face.
Lu Feng heard this and joked: "Wouldn't that make it a better match?"
Jiang Ruoyun's already slightly red cheeks became even more rosy after hearing Lu Feng's words. His soul trembled for a moment, and then he asked seriously: "In front of my grandma's tomb, I proposed to dissolve the contract between us. Do you remember what happened? Can you solve it with your current strength?"
Lu Feng shook his head: "The drop of essence and blood you left in the contract formation is too overbearing and terrifying. I'm afraid I can't solve this contract formation." Recalling Jiang Ruoyun's original suggestion, Lu Feng did not dare to respond due to the injury of the seven souls. , now no longer worried about his life, he turned to say again: "If you are worried, why don't we change to a mandarin duck formation?"
Jiang Ruoyun's pretty face flushed, and a happy smile flashed across her eyes. Just when she was about to say yes, she suddenly remembered what her master said before leaving, and hesitated slightly between her brows: "Once the mandarin duck formation is set up, it is extremely difficult to dismantle it, and from now on it will be the same. Life and death, even if one party is seriously injured, the other party will be implicated, have you considered it?"
Lu Feng smiled gently and said: "I know more about formations than you do. Although the combined formation will be restrained by the other party, it also has advantages. If we practice together and resonate with each other, it can greatly improve our ability to absorb and circulate spiritual energy. speed."
"Okay, for the sake of cultivation speed, I'll let you take advantage," Jiang Ruoyun said with a smile, but he was filled with joy in his heart.
"Just for the speed of cultivation?" Lu Feng stepped forward and stared at Jiang Ruoyun mischievously.
Jiang Ruoyun's face turned red, she was extremely charming, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she murmured as lightly as a mosquito: "You hate it!"
Lu Feng looked at Jiang Ruoyun, their eyes met, and he promised seriously: "I am the only one who can take advantage of this. I will not let anyone hurt you again in the future."
"That's what you said," Jiang Ruoyun's heart was filled with sweetness. He smiled and spread his hands, waiting for Lu Feng to arrange the formation.
Lu Feng stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Ruoyun's hands, moved closer to him, and said softly: "There is a bond formation between us, and this combined formation does not need to be so complicated."
As he said that, Lu Feng pressed his forehead gently against hers.
Their foreheads were close to each other, their hands were gently clasped together, and their noses felt the heat from each other's breath.
Jiang Ruoyun was startled by this sudden scene, and subconsciously wanted to dodge out of shyness. Suddenly, he felt a chill coming from his forehead, and then the life soul in the soul sea began to be pulled.
A feeling of intimacy from the depths of the soul began to spread in the heart, and the life soul was transferred uncontrollably to the other party's soul sea. The soul seas of both parties met, the life souls blended, and their respective essences and blood mixed and condensed.
"Okay," Lu Feng breathed out and left Jiang Ruoyun's forehead with a hint of reluctance.
"So fast?" Jiang Ruoyun reached out and touched her still warm forehead. It took her a long time to set up the contract formation, but now the formation is so fast?
Lu Feng took out a bronze mirror and said with a smile, "Look at the mark on your forehead."
After the combined formation was deployed, Jiang Ruoyun's forehead had a touch of bright red. She gently stroked the mark on her forehead and looked at the picture in the bronze mirror. She couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Not bad, it's pretty good-looking."
Jiang Ruoyun's originally elegant and indifferent face had this touch of red. Not only was it not obtrusive, but it was like the finishing touch, giving her a different kind of beauty.
"I have improved the Hehe Formation. If you don't deliberately show it when using the spiritual energy, the mark will not appear," Lu Feng said.
Jiang Ruoyun glared at Lu Feng, pouting and teasing: "Are you worried that this mark will make people misunderstand that we are a young couple or friends?"
