Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has been seven months since Xu Qingtong came to Houtang Town. At the end of the new year, the streets and alleys of Houtang Town are enveloped in a strong New Year atmosphere. Red lanterns are hung.

When they got up, the shouts of meat sellers, tofu sellers, and cloth sellers came one after another on the street. The children held strings of red candied haws in their hands and chased each other, and occasionally there was a sound of firecrackers.

Xu Qingtong looked out at the street with a smile on his face. He even had the impulse to think that since he was good at calligraphy, he could set up a stall on the street and sell Spring Festival couplets, and maybe he could earn a few taels of silver.

.But his idea was stopped by his uncle. The family did not lack his few taels of silver, so it was better to stay at home and practice martial arts.

On New Year's Eve, Chen Jialiang saw that no one came to see the doctor. He was about to close the door and help his wife buy New Year's goods. A man walked in outside the door. He was about thirty years old, with a long and thin face, a pointed chin, and wide eyes.

He is sunken and has big eyes. He has long hair, tied casually on the back of his head. He is wearing a moon-white robe with blue edges on the edge. The cuffs are tight and embroidered with a circular pattern.

Looking at this person, Chen Jialiang intuitively felt that the person coming was not kind and did not look like a doctor, so he asked: "What can I do for this distinguished guest?"

The man came to Chen Jialiang carelessly, looked him up and down, and asked with a sense of arrogance: "Are you Dr. Chen in this town?"

"Exactly, I wonder what your distinguished guest wants to do with me?"

"Is your nephew a boy from the Xu family in Yang Village, Qingshi Town? Go and call him quickly," the man said.

Chen Jialiang was stunned, wondering how this person knew that his nephew was here? Could it be that he was an enemy of his sister's family, coming to seek revenge? If so, he and his nephew might not be his match. Although Qingtong had practiced immortal magic,

But according to what he said, he has only cultivated magic power, but he still can't use it. What should he do?

While I was thinking about it, I heard the man say: "What are you waiting for! Call him over quickly. I have something to ask him. After asking him, I have to rush back!"

When Chen Jialiang heard that he was not seeking revenge, he felt relieved and said hurriedly: "Your distinguished guest, please wait a moment. I'll call him right away." After saying that, he hurried to the backyard.

Seeing Xu Qingtong, Chen Jialiang told him the situation of the visitor. After hearing this, Xu Qingtong's face tightened, and he had a guess in his heart. So he whispered to Chen Jialiang: "Uncle, you can't talk too much when we get to the front later.

, everything is up to me. If anything happens, you must not argue with that person. Also, if I don't come back, my uncle must hide the small bag under my pillow and the spiritual stone in my sister's hand.

It's best to bury it underground, the deeper the better." After saying that, he took Chen Jialiang to the front hall.

Seeing the man standing in the front hall, Xu Qingtong hurried over, cupped his hands and said, "Xu Qingtong, you are so polite."

"Are you that boy from the Xu family? Very good, I finally found you!" the man said. "Listen carefully, I have a few questions to ask you, and you must answer them truthfully. If you tell lies, I'm afraid you will die.

No guarantee.”

"First thing: did any strangers come to your house a few months ago?"

After hearing this, Xu Qingtong quickly replied: "Yes, that man was about twenty years old and dressed similarly to you. When he arrived at my house, he was seriously injured and covered in blood, as if he had just had a fight with someone. And his face was blue.

, was poisoned by a poison, and soon after arriving at my house, he died of the poison. When my father helped him, the poison also invaded his body, and he went with that person."

Speaking of his father, Xu Qingtong looked sad, his eyes were red, and he burst into tears again. The man saw that he was sad and crying, which did not seem to be a lie, and it was consistent with what he had inquired about in Shangyang Village, so he believed Qi Ba

He then asked: "Do you know how that man was poisoned? Where is his body now?"

Xu Qingtong said: "I don't know how he was poisoned. When he came to my house, he was so poisoned that he could no longer speak. He died of the poison within a few breaths. My father also died of poisoning because he helped him. I dare not touch him.

After touching their bodies, with the help of the villagers, my father and that man were cremated and buried next to the forest at the foot of the back mountain."

"What relics does that man have?" the visitor continued to ask.

"I haven't seen any relics. Even if there were any, I wouldn't dare to take them. They'd probably be burned by a fire!" Xu Qingtong said half-truthfully.

After hearing this, the man thought for a moment and was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, his eyes fell on Xu Qingtong, grabbed Xu Qingtong's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and began to explore.

After a while, he sneered and said: "You little brat, how dare you deceive me? Be careful with your life!"

Xu Qingtong's heart tightened and he said hurriedly: "Everything I said is true. I don't dare to deceive you. If you don't believe it, you can go to Shangyang Village and ask."

"Then let me ask you, where does the magic power in your body come from?" the visitor continued to ask.

Xu Qingtong felt relieved after hearing this, and asked pretending not to know: "Magic power? What magic power?"

The man said: "Magic power is cultivated by people who cultivate immortality. How can you, a mortal, have magic power? If you don't tell me honestly, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Xu Qingtong pretended to think for a moment and said: "My uncle's ancestors left a book on physical fitness. When I came here, I accidentally saw it and found it interesting, so I followed the instructions in the book and practiced diligently. Over the past six months,

I feel that my ears and eyes are clearer than before, my body is lighter and my strength is much stronger. Is it because of the magic power mentioned by the immortal master?"

"Oh, your ancestors actually have a method of cultivating immortals. Come and bring it to me."

Xu Qingtong turned around and told his uncle to go get the Five Pill Refining Secrets. Chen Jialiang had no choice but to turn around and go back to the back hall.

The man stared at Xu Qingtong again. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and said, "How did you know that I am an immortal master?"

Xu Qingtong said calmly: "I see that the immortal master has a full heaven, a square pavilion, a high-spirited spirit, and an extraordinary bearing. He is a very blessed and noble person. Just now, when the immortal master stretched out his hand, he knew that there was magic power in my body, but I didn't

You know it. So, I guess, you must be an immortal."

The flattery made the man dizzy and laughed loudly, "You boy, you are very articulate and smart. If what you say is not false, then you can follow me to become an immortal!"

At this time, Chen Jialiang took a book from the back hall, walked back, and handed it to the visitor. The visitor took the book, looked at the title, flipped through it, and laughed: "This is such a lousy thing."

, in the hands of mortals, it turned into a treasure. Forget it, you should keep it. Your nephew is also smart, and he has also developed magic power. Today I will take him to cultivate immortality, do you have any doubts?"

Chen Jialiang heard this. Although he was reluctant to give up, he did not dare to disobey him. He had to say: "It's too late for me to thank the immortal master for giving me some advice. How can I have any doubts? I only hope that the immortal master can cultivate my nephew well!"
