Chapter 35 Arrival
"call……"
After a night of practice, he slowly spent the night forgetting food and sleep. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Zhou Hanbei converted the last ray of spiritual energy into spiritual liquid, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and blinked his eyelashes slightly. After a moment, his dark eyes suddenly appeared.
Then open it.
The benefit this kind of practice brings to him is that through constant consumption and constant absorption and replenishment, he can not only become more familiar with the Great Heart Sutra, but also improve his cultivation level. In addition, his mental power has increased a lot due to his multitasking.
Looking at Niu Defa who was still sleeping soundly beside him, he shook his head with a smile and whispered in his ear, "Get up and eat."
"What, where?"
Niu De sat up immediately in shock. At such a speed, he couldn't stop eating when he heard that he was eating.
"Get up quickly, wash up, and get ready to go."
"oh!"
After Zhou Hanbei washed up, they went downstairs and saw Liu Ziyou and Ji Rufeng already waiting. Li Xinlan and Du Meng hadn't come down yet. The few of them were chatting boredly. After a while, Niu Defa's stomach began to growl again.
It growled to show that it was hungry.
"How long do we have to wait? Why haven't they come down yet?" Niu Defa looked depressed. Just after he finished speaking, two voices came from the stairs coming down the stairs.
"Why, are you so dissatisfied with the two ladies waiting for you?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison, joking, saying something to a woman. Li Xinlan and Du Meng looked at everyone's faces and covered their mouths with smiles. They did not dwell too much on this issue.
After the lesson learned last night, several people unanimously decided not to have breakfast here and planned to go out to buy something to eat on the road. Only Niu De was confused and kept asking why.
Outside the town, Niu Defa was holding a few large pancakes and a dozen steamed buns in his hands. He was eating with a silly smile, with a satisfied look on his face, as long as he was eating.
"Qiang..."
"bite……"
Everyone who walked to a hillside heard the clash of weapons in the distance. They thought it was someone fighting. They quickly climbed up the hillside and saw five or six people at the foot of the other side of the hill besieging a man and a woman. Three people had fallen on the ground.
I'm a human being, I don't know whether I'm dead or alive.
At this time, the man sacrificed a cauldron. The cauldron was bronze in color. There were two dragon heads at the mouth of the cauldron, emitting two kinds of spiritual energy, one blue and one red, intertwined with each other. The body of the cauldron was engraved with complex inscriptions.
Immediately after reciting the magic formula silently, the cauldron became as tall as a man, blocking an attack, and slapping it hard towards the man.
And another woman, dressed in fiery red, crackled with her long whip. Suddenly, the fire was bright, and the fiery long whip whipped towards the person who wanted to avoid Ding. She didn't even have time to react, and was turned into a long whip.
The whip was wrapped around his feet, pulled and pulled, and he fell to the ground and was covered in. He could only hear the man screaming inside.
"Huh? The melting cauldron of water and fire." Liu Ziyou muttered to himself at the side.
Everyone was watching the fight below, but they couldn't hear Liu Ziyou's voice clearly, "Do we want to go down and help?"
"Don't be impulsive. Let's see what happens first."
"Yes, I don't know why, but taking action rashly will cause misunderstanding."
Several people stood there, just watching.
At this time, the people below also noticed Zhou Hanbei and the others, and they all stopped and looked at each other coldly, on guard.
"You have killed so many of us. It will be useless to continue fighting. Why don't we forget it. We also promise that we will not retaliate against you again." Someone said from the side with more people. It happened that Zhou Hanbei and the others appeared.
, gave them an excuse, "so that the fishermen will not benefit."
"Hmph, you guys are teasing me and trying to steal our things. I..." Before the woman in red could finish her words, she was grabbed by the man on the side. He whispered to her, "So many of them died.
We have no losses and have been angry enough, so we should not cause trouble again."
After saying that, he looked at those people coldly and said, "Don't let me meet you next time, otherwise you won't know how to die, so get out!"
After seeing those people running away in despair, the man pulled the woman back slowly, stared at Zhou Hanbei and his group, and turned to leave. They didn't know who Zhou Hanbei was, and they were afraid that someone would take advantage of the situation, so they just
It can temporarily avoid the sharp edge, and there are also many people like Zhou Hanbei.
Zhou Hanbei and his group looked at the figures gradually leaving.
"Senior brother, I didn't hear clearly what you just said."
"I'm talking about the tripod he just used."
"What's that for?"
Liu Ziyou asked everyone to continue on their way and not stand there, and then slowly explained. It turned out that he had never seen the cauldron before, but had only heard about it and saw the man using it. It was similar to the characteristics described to him by others.
That cauldron is called the Water-Fire Melting Cauldron. It is used by alchemists to refine medicine. It can also be used as a weapon. It is said that water and fire are incompatible. Under the operation of this cauldron, they can be fused to achieve a better refining effect.
They should be people from the Alchemy Sect. Most of the alchemists on the mainland come from the Alchemy Sect. And the Alchemy Sect is not my sect, so they don’t know what they are doing here. They probably don’t want to cause trouble and are on guard against us, which is normal.
"Wow, it's such a big deal."
"Aren't alchemists of high status? Why would anyone want to kill them?"
"If you have a high status, you must grow up. If you don't grow up, you will be killed. It's because you are young and easy to bully."
"Yes, there are many people who are secretly afraid that you will threaten their status and are looking for someone to mess with you."
Everyone was chattering, of course, this had nothing to do with them yet, so they didn't think much about it, and then they continued on their way towards Baihua Sect.
Four days later, Zhou Hanbei and others came to a small town near Baihua Sect. There was nothing here before. Since Baihua Sect often held some activities, a market was formed here. Gradually, there were more people and it developed.
, it can be regarded as a place of Baihua Sect to the outside world, and the management here is also owned by Baihua Sect.
A few people were walking on this bustling road. In less than two days, the treasure appraisal conference started, and forces from all parties arrived one after another.
"Are you here to participate in the treasure appraisal meeting?" At this time, a person wearing Baihua Sect clothes, who should be the deacon of Baihua Sect's outer sect, asked Zhou Hanbei and others.
"Not really, I just came to see you." Liu Ziyou clasped his fists and returned the greeting.
"That doesn't matter. I'm a guest from afar. It's a great honor to come." Seeing the sword logo on Liu Ziyou's clothes, the deacon stretched out his hand to invite, "It turns out you are a junior brother of the Shushan sect. Please come with me."
.”
In the past few days, for the safety and reception of the conference, Baihua Sect has sent many disciples out, and there are also some powerful elders hiding in the dark. And the place they went to was the restaurant where the conference was held in the end.
After the deacon arranged their accommodation with them and told them where the place to eat was, he left to entertain other guests.
"Oh, it's really luxurious. All food and accommodation are free."
Ji Rufeng smacked his lips and said.
"Don't sigh, this is a drop in the bucket to them."
While several people were still lamenting the Baihua Sect's wealth, Zhou Hanbei saw a man and a woman walking towards them, "Hey, it's them." It turned out to be the alchemist he saw before, and obviously the other party also saw them,
But there was no exchange of words, so he passed them by and walked upstairs.
"What are they doing here?"
"You care so much, stop meddling in other people's business."
"I'll just ask."
Zhou Hanbei interrupted Ji Rufeng and Liu Ziyou, "Let's go quickly. Mavericks must be hungry again. You guys should learn from Mavericks and just follow. There are so many problems."
Niu Defa thought to himself that he understands me so well, and nodded vigorously, causing Li Xinlan and Du Meng to laugh continuously.
Sitting in front of the table, looking at a large table full of dishes, although it was free, it attracted the attention of many people, which made them feel very embarrassed, but it didn't last long, everyone ate their own food.
"Be careful, people from the Tang Sect are coming."
At this time, Liu Ziyou spoke. Zhou Hanbei and others followed his gaze. The black robes were so impressive. They must have just arrived.
"Don't mess with them. Those people are very troublesome."
"Well, as long as he doesn't mess with us, I won't bother them either."
Zhou Hanbei thought to himself that they had killed so many people in the past, and they didn’t know how the investigation was going, but they hoped everything would be fine. Many people came one after another to this meal.
Liu Ziyou introduced the various forces to everyone. They were full of evil spirits and had an aura of keeping away from strangers, as if telling others that they were not easy to mess with. They were people from the Qisha Sect.
The women on the other side are from Qingyinfang, and they are also engaged in intelligence. They are not as famous as Jingulou, but they should not be underestimated.
Following the slow introduction, Hou San also walked in, and while he was talking to the people next to him, he saw Zhou Hanbei and others, and hurried over, "Oh, brother Zhou, you guys are also here to attend this meeting.
"
Zhou Hanbei saw this and said, "Third Master, you are here too."
After Hou San left, he also knew that Feng Yuan was dead. This must have something to do with Zhou Hanbei. After all, he had threatened Feng Yuan at that time. Now that Feng Yuan is dead, he cannot be traced.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, as if they had a tacit understanding and did not reveal their words.
He immediately said: "Brother, are you feeling better?"
"Thanks to Third Master, it's no longer a serious problem."
After saying that, he prepared to sit down without any courtesy and asked his subordinates to find a seat by themselves.
"Hou San, why don't you introduce it to me?" At this time, a man next to Hou San was wearing a rich man's hat. Under his two thick eyebrows, his eyes showed a hint of shrewdness. The most conspicuous thing was a black mole at the corner of his mouth.
The man spoke.
"Look at my memory, brother Zhou, this is the manager of Zhenbao Pavilion in Dahan, his name is Ma Fei." After saying that, he turned to Ma Fei and said, "This is my new brother, his name is Zhou Hanbei."
Then introduce it to everyone one by one.
Ma Fei felt something was wrong. You, Hou San, have always been unfaithful and unwilling to leave early. You are so concerned about a child in the Creation realm, and you only introduced me to a name. I came down to contact him myself.
Ignoring everyone else, he followed Hou San and sat down. Hou San looked at him and thought to himself, what's going on with this guy? I haven't figured out the treasure I found yet, but you still come to intervene. Ma Feiquan pretended not to see it. He had his own plans in mind.
Just as a few people were talking, there were bursts of exclamations all around...
