In the poplar forest, the Taoist woman snorted, "Don't pretend to be dead. I know you are not seriously injured. You have deceived me and reaped the benefits. Why are you pretending to be here with me?"
The man lying down opened his eyes, put the treasure gourd into his arms, and said with a smile:
"It wasn't because of the fairy's advice. This person with major injuries and minor injuries was almost dismissed by them with a few broken pills. He should have shared the fortune with the fairy, but a man has a short ambition, a horse is thin, and the hair is long..."
The Taoist woman glared at him, "You have made a good relationship full of copper stench. If you just open your mouth, can they still refuse to give it?"
Hou Zi sighed, "That's different. There is no relationship now, and there will be no more entanglement in the future. If I really open my mouth, if the Bai family opens their mouth to me in the future if there is trouble, should I respond or not? The trivial matters of the merchant are too much. There’s so much, there’s no end.”
The Taoist lady was speechless, "Didn't you bring the trouble yourself? Originally, this rescue might not have to involve life and death, but now it's better, even I am trapped in it. It's just that you said you don't have the ability to fight, but you still want to I need to charge this iron!"
Hou Zi smiled bitterly, "Isn't there no way to do it? Maybe there are some things that people cannot compromise on, so they have to express their attitude, otherwise the fairy thinks they will retreat in spite of the difficulties?"
"You have only been in the realm for a year and you dare to attack three Tongxuan cultivators who have been in the realm for more than ten years. You need to be cured of this problem! Otherwise, you won't need me to save you in the future. You can put a coffin in your own gourd and you will need it sooner or later!"
Hou Zi frowned, "Are you careless when you don't choose a skill? I just chose the most difficult Earth Elemental Escape. After a year, I can only escape among the leaves of leaves. If I accidentally change the ground outside, I can still do it." Show your butt.
Fairy, you see, I’m finally in the upper realm now, and I should have fulfilled your original request of me. Isn’t it time to tell me something?”
The Taoist woman went back on her word without hesitation, "Did I say that at the time? Well, even if I said it, with your current ability, you still want to avenge Chong Ling? Don't be caught and confess me later."
Wait a little longer until you can beat me."
He turned around and left, "I'm warning you, don't stay in the poplar forest. It won't be long before monks from the Wu clan come here looking for traces. Don't blame me for not coming to save you."
Now that Taoist Yi is gone, she still has a lot to take care of in Liuyang City. As a Taoist stationed in a city, she is involved in many aspects. How can someone like Hou Zi kill someone without even burying his body in the capital?
There will be a lot of troubles like the Bai family in the future, and until both parties completely fall out, this is what she has to prepare for.
After she left, Hou Zi stood up unsteadily. It was time for him to leave. He would have left even if she didn't say anything. His current situation and strength did not allow him to stay here and pretend to be false.
The injuries were indeed serious, internal and external, and he was tortured to pieces by that Wu Sect monk; a young Tongxuan swordsman who had only been practicing for one year met an old practitioner who had been practicing for decades, and he had to rely on others to play if he could survive. It's a game of cat and mouse.
His hunch was correct. A swordsman with no special skills is a piece of shit; he has no guarantee of long-range, can't get close to him at short-range, can't keep up with his spiritual consciousness, can't withstand his magic power, and will be beaten throughout the whole process without even a chance to fight for his life. nothing.
If the Taoist had not arrived at the last moment, he would have capsized this time, without any suspense.
He has already been rescued once by a Taoist, so it doesn't matter if he does it again. According to his thoughts, everyone is a family, and no one should be polite to anyone.
Although the injury is serious, Zifu is fine and the Dantian is intact. As long as these two things are fine, creatures like monks will not lie on the ground like mortals, unable to move. They can barely move and fly. When I went out, I just flew a little low.
This was a lesson, a profound lesson. It was the first time since he started practicing Taoism that he was beaten to the point of being confused. It was also a good thing, at least it made him understand that he was not the proud man of heaven, but just one of thousands of ordinary practitioners. God has not given him the privilege to dominate all living beings.
He found a quiet mountaintop in the wilderness a hundred miles away from the poplar forest as a temporary healing place; the Wu sect monks might go to the poplar forest to look for clues, but they would never go deep into the country of Shan to pursue the murderer hundreds of miles away.
He has no shortage of elixirs. He has some, and the Taoist priest also gave him a lot. They are all really useful for the scene, not the so-called holy medicine. There are some changes in this woman now, which gives him a glimmer of hope, but he can't I am anxious and need to find a better time.
He began painful healing, first internally and then externally. Even with his body in the Tongxuan realm, it would take at least half a month to basically recover, and it would take more than a month to fully return to normal. The specific process depends on his natural Tao body. Coordination in nature.
The healing process is also a process of licking wounds and reflecting. When the close combat is not always unfavorable, he needs to find a correct direction for himself, otherwise this tragedy will happen again, and next time there will be no more fairies descending from the sky. .
Cultivation is a flaw. Before he improves his cultivation to the average level of Tongxuan, he should not confront others head-on. This has been explained in Quanzhen Taoist books, but he does not take it seriously and is still immersed in it. When I was doing minor cultivation, I had the mentality of God killing God when I was blocking it, and Buddha when I was blocking Buddha. Now that I have actually experienced it myself, my memory is even more profound.
When fighting reaches the stage of a real cultivator, it shows completely different characteristics from before. You can no longer look at fighting with the mentality between a mortal warrior and a monk when you were under Tongxuan.
What impressed him the most was that monks who specialize in combat must have special skills! They must have an overwhelming advantage in a certain aspect.
This is what a real battle is like. The opponent used his own advantages to suppress him. As a result, he couldn't use his abilities at all. His sword skills didn't even have a chance to swing a sword during the entire battle.
The sword control technique cannot keep up with the opponent's sophisticated positioning. The range of the flying sword is lower than the range of the anti-surgery technique. Frequent use of the following sword attachment will result in more severe beatings. This thing is very about timing, rather than being used as a main close-quarters method.
There were too many, and he found that he was completely useless now.
One year was originally the deadline he had set for himself. If he failed to achieve success in practice, he should decisively change his family. If not for this incident, he might have left and returned to Jincheng, but this accident added a little more variables to him.
The variable comes from those three earth treasures.
During this period of time when he was recuperating from his injuries, the only thing he did when he was extremely bored was to study these three treasures. Finally, he discovered that as the largest chain of shops in the southwest region, the three treasures presented by the Bai family were really not fools. He probably has never seen such a treasure in Jincheng?
