Chapter 265 Watching the Sword(1/2)

 When Ouyang Rong climbed out of the well, he found that it was almost dawn.

The moon sets across the sky, and the east becomes white.

He leaned against the mouth of the well, sat on the ground with his elbows on his knees, and took a deep breath.

His slightly dazed eyes reflected the small orange-red dots in the eastern sky.

I still remember that it was at this dawn that I climbed out of the well for the first time.

It's just that the current mentality is completely opposite to the mentality at that time.

There is also missing hair and other monks eagerly crowding around like ants in a hot pot.

The only thing that is the same is that he climbed out of the well alone with firm belief.

"What a coincidence. Do I have to start over again... No, this time, I am no longer alone."

Ouyang Rong admired the sunrise over the Yangtze River in the distance for a while.

When the warm early sun warmed his body, he stood up and left the Beitian Alms House where monks were gradually getting up early.

The first place Ouyang Rong went to was Sanhuiyuan.

This was also the Zen monastery where he recovered from his injuries the first two times, so he was quite familiar with the journey.

On the way, he deliberately took a detour and passed by the courtyard where Wei Shaoxuan had walked out with a bowl and smashed it. He found that there was no trace left and the monks nearby lived as before.

Speaking of which, after Bu Jian beheaded Wei Shaoxuan and Liu Fu, he and Li Guoer did a very clean job, destroying the corpses and eliminating traces of them.

Even if later generations guessed that a fierce battle had taken place here, it would probably be difficult to determine who the victim was based on clues.

Ouyang Rong also had an idea and saved a hand. He deliberately let go of a Persian businessman he was not familiar with, leaking a misleading tone.

I don’t know if his micro-management has had an effect at the moment and affected the Wei family’s power entrenched in Jiangnan Dao...

Ouyang Rong passed by the yard calmly.

After a while, he returned to Sanhui Courtyard, opened the door and walked into the house.

His eyes quickly swept over the tables, chairs, beds, etc.

Someone lived there.

Ouyang Rong's palm slowly withdrew from the messy and wrinkled sheets of the bed in the back room.

After checking around again, he slowly walked out of the back room filled with the aroma of medicine.

He took a long breath.

"It seems that I should have been recuperating here a few days ago, but...why is there no one to take care of me? Is there no one to care about me sleepwalking around at night after I recover?

"Where are the junior sisters and the others?"

Ouyang Rong frowned slightly.

It's not that he is overbearing and narcissistic, it's mainly because he is subconsciously worried about whether the junior sisters and the others will encounter any changes, so they have no time to take care of him.

"In this novel, after the protagonist recovers from illness and wakes up from a dream, he discovers that things have changed in the world..."

Ouyang Rong shook his head, but he glanced at the midsummer morning outside the window and wasn't too worried.

The coma was quite long, but it was still summer and there was no change of season.

"This is?"

Ouyang Rong's peripheral vision was suddenly attracted by a food box. He walked over, opened the lid of the food box, and took a look.

Food boxes and plates are cleaned cleanly.

"It looks familiar. The food box should be from Meiluyuan...is it three layers? There are quite a few plates, at least enough for two people."

He looked around the room and muttered analysis:

"There should be at least one person who has been guarding this house to take care of me for a long time. Is Wei Lai back? Or is my junior sister doing it for me?

"But... why is there a wine bottle in the food box and someone is drinking? Wei Lai probably doesn't drink. It's possible for junior sister, Miss Li, to mention casually that she secretly drank wine on the roof of Yilanxuan."

Ouyang Rong was as attentive as a hair. He walked forward and fiddled with the paper, ink, pen and inkstone on the table. He became more and more sure that the junior sister was permanently stationed in this room.

Someone has often used paper, ink, pen and inkstone. It should be the little junior sister who has such interest. As for the white-haired maid, it is better to kill her than to let her study and practice calligraphy...

Apart from this, there were no other unusual signs in the house.

In addition, the bronze mask, Mohist sword box, moonlight sword and other items are not in the house.

Was it hidden and kept by the junior sisters and the others?

"Junior sister is very cautious when doing things."

A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. Ouyang Rong shook his head and didn't think about it any more.

As for the specifics, I will know later when I meet the junior sisters and the others and ask them.

Right now, the person taking care of him is probably preparing breakfast.

Ouyang Rong turned around, first made the bed again, and then closed the window.

The sky faces the silent house,

He closed his eyes, breathed in and out, and slowly felt the state of his Dantian.

"Are you full of spiritual energy..."

After these days of coma, the ninth-grade Dantian, which was originally lacking in spiritual energy, has slowly returned to fullness.

Ouyang Rong, who had one-third of the medicinal effect of Six-winged Summer Cicada, developed a ninth-grade dantian, but its capacity and recovery speed may not be outstanding.

But it is a real existence and something that truly belongs to him.

It is the solid foundation of one's own strength.

Especially when all the merit purple mist in the Merit Tower is temporarily used up.

These Dantian auras, coupled with the sword holder's Juemai, and a hidden tripod sword, are his greatest confidence in saving his life at the moment.

The man holding the sword is as fragile as glass, but his lethality is astonishing.

He had tested it himself when he killed Liu Fu before.

While taking Qi-tonifying elixirs.

Use the top secret skill of "Return to Come", spread the sword for fifteen breaths,

It can kill an ordinary seventh-grade Qi practitioner who falls into the trap.

Although Liu Fu had a broken arm and was injured at the time, looking at him with no power to fight back, he probably could have killed him even without the injury. At most, it would have taken a little effort to let him live a few more breaths.

However, this involves a new sword-wielding experience, which is also the lesson Ouyang Rong summed up when he killed Liu Fu wisely:

Next time, you should not get too close to the prey, and the sword holder should stay farther away.

If he hadn't used the Mirage Mask to impersonate Wei Shaoxuan at that time, Liu Fu would have been unprepared. When the Qi machine was locked, he was so frightened that the dead soul ran away as soon as possible.

Otherwise, given the gap between him and the tripod sword before he jumped into the air, it was not impossible for Liu Fu to use it to get close to Ouyang Rong and twist his neck.

It was also the fear when Ouyang Rong deployed his sword to kill people for the third time, so later, when Ouyang Rong deployed his sword for the fourth time and was about to kill Qiu Shenji, he stood far away and did not give the latter a chance to get close.

He continued to work hard until the sword was finally completed, which made this soldier who had narrowly escaped death countless times on the battlefield very miserable.

"This qi-boosting elixir is quite useful. It helps replenish the huge consumption of the 'Gui Gu Lai Xi' cloth sword. Unfortunately, it has been used up when killing Qiu Shenji. I don't know where to find it again. Ge Zao Mountain should

have it……"

Ouyang Rong walked around the house and murmured to himself:

"If there is no qi-replenishing elixir and the sword cannot be deployed for fifteen breaths, wouldn't it mean that it would be impossible to kill a seventh-level qi practitioner?

"But just using my Dantian spiritual energy reserve, which is usually below the seventh level, I should be invincible. As long as I keep a low profile, don't be discovered by the opponent first, just pick off the head first.

"As for ordinary seventh-level enemies, if there is really no qi-replenishing elixir, 'Jiangzuo' can also use my 'unjust qi' as fuel to forcefully kill beings like Liu Fu.

"As for seventh-grade Qi practitioners who are stronger than Liu Fu, such as Junior Sister, they are the seeds of cultivation who come from a well-known orthodox lineage.

"Or a seventh-level qi practitioner who practices strange and special qi training skills. I don't know how many breaths I need to draw the sword, how much more than fifteen breaths. I don't know if my 'unpleasant energy' is enough. Don't be like this time. He's quite handsome."

Handsome, but fell asleep afterwards."

Ouyang Rong sighed, rubbed his face hard, and muttered with emotion:

"Killing Qiu Shenji this time was indeed too risky. Fortunately, with the merit of Ziwu and a special 'craftsman', I was able to be so exaggerated and attack and kill a seriously injured sixth-level Qi practitioner.

"At that time, I only cared about the Shaqiu Divine Machine, and had a gluttonous need for this 'craftsman' that connected my mind. I felt that my whole spirit was about to be drained. At that time, I felt that I just wanted to put my head up and take a deep sleep.

It’s a bit scary to never wake up..."

He frowned: "By the way, how do you recover this severely overdrawn mental energy? I have to ask Master Shandao and my junior sister later, can they recover as long as they sleep and rest?"

Ouyang Rong lowered his head and glanced at his palms, a kind of palpitations lingering in his heart.

He always feels that the consequences of excessive consumption of "unpleasant energy" seem to be serious. It is best not to try it lightly until the critical moment...

But no matter what, whatever the price paid,

On that day, when he was in the hot-blooded state of bullfighting, he took a risk and succeeded in killing Qiu Shenji, but it made Ouyang Rong very happy. He is still vaguely recalling it at this moment, it was very happy!
To be continued...
