Chapter 22 A Poison Named Xiaoqi Recites My Pseudonym
It's still the sword training ground at the top of Tianjian Peak, it's still the same stone table, and it's still Xiao Qi, but the person sitting opposite the stone table has been replaced by Master Xu Ran from Sixth Senior Sister Luoxing.
At this time, Xu Ran stared expressionlessly at Xiao Qi, who was immersed in copying. The six apprentices could no longer count on them, and they all helped Xiao Qi cheat.
If this continues, Xiaoqi will be completely crooked in a few years. This is absolutely not possible. For this reason, he can only come forward in person.
But as time went by, Xu Ran's face became more and more ugly, and the veins on his forehead popped out. In the end, he couldn't hold it back anymore, glared at Xiao Qi, and said in a stiff tone:
"Xiao Qi, from now on, you are not allowed to write a word. Just look up at my teacher and copy it carefully."
"Oh." Xiaoqi responded feebly, with an unspeakable grievance on her face.
He lowered his head and finished writing two words on the paper, then slowly raised his head, staring directly at the master sitting opposite, then lowered his head again, finished writing two words, and continued to raise his head...
Xu Ran's eyes widened and he said, "What did Master just say?"
Xiaoqi stared back unconvinced, stretched out two fingers and said: "Two."
Xu Ran's tone was stagnant, and he said angrily: "From now on, until you have copied it three hundred times, you are not allowed to raise your head and look at me as a teacher."
Xiaoqi's face changed and she said angrily: "No, I'll just read it. Since master asked me to copy these, why don't you let me read them!"
When Xu Ran heard this, he stood up and said:
"You see, it's useless to be a teacher. Anyway, if you don't finish copying it three hundred times, the teacher won't let you go down. If you really want to go down, just jump out from here."
When Xiao Qi heard Xu Ran's words, her face lit up, she immediately stood up, put down the brush in her hand, walked to the edge of the cliff, jumped directly...
When Xu Ran saw Xiao Qi's movements, his face turned pale, and he quickly teleported to catch Xiao Qi.
This is a cliff of 9,000 feet. Xiaoqi is now at the peak of Qi training and cannot even fly with a weapon. If he really falls like this, the scene will be...
Looking at Xiao Qi with her head lowered in front of her, Xu Ran's face turned dark and she fell silent.
How come other people's female apprentices are all the master's little cotton-padded jackets, cute and cute little birds?
When Xiao Qi arrived at his place, he would chop at anyone with a knife, regardless of whether he could beat him or not.
This would be fine if he were extremely strong. Even if she did this, he could still protect her.
The key is that he is not, he is just a weakling with cultivation level in the transformation stage. In this world, he is only as strong as some outer disciples of large sects.
How scary is this world? Even the system makes him cling to it, not daring to let him out for fear of not being able to protect him. So where does he get the confidence to protect Xiao Qi?
So he could only hope that Xiaoqi could learn some life-saving skills and not just rush into trouble without thinking about anything.
But Xiao Qi's appearance now really gave him a headache. He didn't know where to start for a moment, and finally he had to sigh helplessly and said:
"Forget it, that's it for today."
Xiaoqi's face lit up and she looked at the master with a sweet smile.
Xu Ran's face was stern and he said stiffly:
"Continue tomorrow!"
Xiaoqi's face suddenly darkened.
Not happy!
…………
Among the twelve main peaks in the System Sect, there is a main peak that looks eerie and terrifying. There are gusts of sinister wind all year round, making people who come near it subconsciously feel scared.
At the foot of the main peak, there is a huge stone tablet, with several large characters carved on it with a killing sword edge - Zongmen forbidden area.
In fact, there is nothing special about the so-called sect's forbidden area, it is just a magic array arranged outside.
This was also created after Xu Ran discussed with the system. How come there is so little restricted area in the sect with a fairy-like style?
At first, this place was abandoned. After it was renovated, I didn't think about its use. It was just for leisure and a sense of ritual.
Later, Xu Ran accepted a disciple, and this place became the sect's logistics supply place. The talisman array disks used by Lin Qianqian and the others would be sent from here to the sect's treasury at regular intervals.
After Xu Ran and Xiao Qi came down from Tianjian Peak, they hurried to the sect's restricted area.
There was a cave entrance on the mountainside of the sect's forbidden area. Xu Ran entered through it. After passing through a long tunnel, there was an open cave inside.
There are various elixirs and minerals piled inside the cave, as well as many newly refined talismans, elixirs, magic weapons, formation disks and the like.
After Xu Ran entered the cave, three people who looked exactly like him came out and greeted him.
The three of them have exactly the same appearance and temperament, expressionless faces, and are all wearing Taoist robes. Only the colors of the Taoist robes are different, one is black, one is white, and one is green. This seems to be done to facilitate identification.
After seeing the three people, Xu Ran did not show any surprise and said directly: "What are you so anxious about?"
After the three people heard Xu Ran's words, they looked at each other and nodded. Then Xu Ran, who was wearing a black robe, said:
"The main body, kill us all quickly."
Xu Ran looked confused and asked: "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly. Was it too windy?"
Xu Ran, the black-robed man, continued: "We are saying, let the main body kill us."
After Xu Ran confirmed that he heard correctly, he looked at them blankly, and after a while he said:
"Okay, I heard it clearly this time, but what's the reason?"
The black-robed Xu Ran did not answer directly, but asked a question and said:
"Do you still remember the original purpose of dividing us into three parts?"
Xu Ran nodded and said:
"Remember, when we separated the three of you, wasn't it just to make you tool men?
I usually refine magic weapons and elixirs for the sect and do hard labor for the sect. If I am killed one day, I will use your resurrection."
When the three of them heard Xu Ran say that they were tool men, they did not show any unpleasant expressions. Instead, they nodded affirmatively and said:
"Yes, we are just tools for your resurrection and hard work.
Tool people do not need emotions, so when you differentiated us from the original body, you also set up tool people without emotions.
But recently, we feel that there are emotional fluctuations deep in our hearts.
This is a dangerous sign. After the tool person has feelings, it may destroy your plan.
If you are really killed one day, you may not be able to use us to resurrect you.
The worst-case scenario is that suddenly one day we tool people will come out and snatch the sovereignty of the identity of "Xu Ran" from you.
So before the situation gets worse, you, main body, kill us quickly to avoid future troubles."
After Xu Ran heard this, the expression on his face suddenly changed. He looked at his three clones and asked with some uncertainty:
"What emotions are you feeling? Could it be that you have been working hard all these years and want to go on strike?"
The three clones shook their heads, looked at each other, hesitated for a while, and said with some uncertainty:
"We felt like we were being poisoned."
Xu Ran was stunned and quickly asked: "Poisoned? Is there any medicine to cure it?"
The clone continued to say uncertainly: "We don't know whether there is an antidote for this."
Xu Ran hesitated for a while and said:
"This... you don't even know if it can be cured now? Do you have any clues about what kind of poison it is?"
The clone continued to reply in an uncertain tone: "We suspect that we have been poisoned by a poison called "Xiaoqi"."
