500 Terrible misfortune (1)

Something happened to one of his friends … Was it number five, or was it some other junior that Daoist priest Golden Lotus knew?

Xu Qi ‘an made an appropriate puzzled expression. “Where is your little friend? do you need me to mobilize the Imperial court’s troops?”

“She’s in Xiang Prefecture,” Daoist priest Golden Lotus said, shaking his head.

Xiangzhou was to the South of the capital city, about 400 kilometers away … It was neither close nor far. Xu Qi ‘an frowned. I’m not responsible for anything, but I have to apply for leave from the government office. After all, it’s a long journey.

yes. Taoist master Jin Lian nodded. ask the servants in the residence to take leave tomorrow. We’ll leave tonight. We need to hurry … Right, where’s the Prophet?

“If you want to find someone, you must have the help of the Qi observation technique.”

“She’s in the Directorate of Celestials …” Xu Qi ‘an let out a breath and said in a joking tone, “”Alright, I’ll go to her mother’s house and get her here.”

The Prophet must be a woman … No. 6, Heng Yuan, and No. 4, Chu Yuanqi, made their guesses at the same time.

The three of them entered the house and waited. Xu Qi ‘an brought the young mare from the backyard and rode it to the Directorate of Celestials.

The lights in the Directorate of Celestials were on all night. Xu Qi ‘an entered the lobby on the first floor and asked the pharmacists who were working hard on their research, “”Which senior brother can pass the message that I’m looking for Senior Sister Zhong Li?”

The atmosphere suddenly became stiff. The pharmacists exchanged looks and said, “”Senior Sister Zhong Li is in the first underground level, please wait …”

A white-robed man entered. A few seconds later, he shouted, “”Senior Sister Zhong Li, young master Xu is here for you.”

With that, the Warlock ran out in a hurry. He was so fast that it was as if there was a big worm chasing after him.

In the lobby, the other white-robed men dropped their work and rushed to the stairs. In an instant, the hall was quiet. Other than Xu Qi ‘an, there was no one else in the hall.

A few minutes later, Zhong Li came out with her hair down, wearing a coarse robe and her head slightly lowered.

It was a standard mourning dress.

“I need to leave the capital to do something. I’ll be back soon, and I need your strength.” Xu Qi ‘an did not stand on ceremony and spoke directly.

“Oh,”

Zhong Li nodded her head in a concise manner. She was very obedient as a tool.

The two of them left the Directorate of Celestials side by side. Xu Qi ‘an rode on a horse while Zhong Li walked on foot. Their speed was not any slower than the little mare.

Soon, he returned to the Xu residence and met up with the three members of the Heaven and Earth Society led by the Golden Lotus Daoist.

it’s not suitable to fly in the inner city, ” Chu Yuanxi said. we’ll go to the outer city. Brother Xu, please take us out of the city.

If he was alone, flying in the sky and burrowing underground in the inner city would not be a problem. For the sake of the human sect, the experts in the city would not stop him or attack him.

However, if there were too many of them, they would not be able to turn a blind eye to it and it would only cause more trouble.

Xu Qi ‘an led the three men out of the mansion. With Xu Qi’ an leading the way, no matter if it was the night watchman or the Royal sword guards, they only did routine questioning and did not stop them.

On the way, Golden Lotus Taoist looked at Xu Qi ‘an and said in a deep voice, “”Number five is missing.”

Chu Yuanxi immediately looked at Xu Qi ‘an.

Xu Qi ‘an was confused,”what are you talking about?” Hmm, why didn’t Daoist priest possess the cat today?”

“Number five is the number of the holder of the fragment of the Book of the Earth. You should know this. It’s all thanks to you that Hengyuan was saved that day.” Yes, what do you mean by cats?”

Oh, ” Xu Qi ‘an replied. nothing. I remembered it wrong.

Daoist priest Golden Lotus nodded in satisfaction.

Xu Qi ‘an nodded in satisfaction.

Chu Yuanqian looked at the two of them, then at Hengyuan. She smiled and said, “”Is it master Hengyuan who was saved during the Sang Bo case?”

“It’s all thanks to Lord Xu back then,” Daoist priest Hengyuan pressed his palms together and said.

Hengyuan was indeed involved in the Sang Bo case. He had said in the fragment of the book of the nether world that it was all Xu Qi. an’s credit that he could get away from the night watchman’s Yamen … Now, it seemed that there was more to this matter. The Golden Lotus Daoist priest had contacted Xu Qi ‘an through number three, which meant that Xu Qi’ an knew about the existence of the Heaven and Earth Society and the fragment of the book of the nether world.

With that, I was even more convinced of a guess. Although Daoist priest Golden Lotus gave the fragment of the book of the nether world to the students of Yun Lu Academy to celebrate the new year, he actually wanted both.

Chu Yuan laughed but did not say anything.

When they reached the outer city, Chu Yuanxi patted her back, and the human sect’s magic weapon flew out together with the sword and scabbard, hanging in the air.

The Golden Lotus Daoist priest took out a paper crane from his chest and tossed it lightly. The paper crane instantly transformed into a seven-foot long bird, which flapped its wings and circled around.

“Daoist priest, I’ll follow you!” Xu Qi ‘an said quickly.

Even a fool would choose. Chu Yuanyou’s was a standing ticket, while Daoist priest Golden Lotus ‘was a sitting ticket.

Hengyuan and Chu Yuanxi jumped into their scabbards and flew away.

After Xu Qi ‘an and Golden Lotus Daoist priest got on the White Crane, they realized that there were not enough seats for Zhong Li.

“Can warlocks fly?” Xu Qi ‘an asked the’ deceased daughter’.

“No, teleportation formations can only be used by fourth stage cultivators.” Zhong Li shook her head.

Xu Qi ‘an looked around and then at his thigh.

“It’s fine!” Golden Lotus took off the wooden hairpin and threw it to Zhong Li.

Zhong Li held the wooden hairpin, and under its lead, she shot into the sky with a “Xiu” sound, following closely behind Chu Yuanyou’s flying sword.

Daoist priest, you’re walking on. narrow road … Xu Qian said,

The White Crane flapped its wings and flew.

………….

The flying swords, paper cranes, and wooden hairpins rose higher and higher. Slowly, the scenery on the ground began to blur.

Hu … The clouds and mist split apart as the sword and crane broke through the clouds.

The night sky was blue and a crescent moon hung in the sky. The sea of clouds under his feet was frozen and motionless.

The world instantly fell silent.

“We’ve entered the troposphere.” Xu Qi ‘an said telepathically.

The strong wind made it hard for him to open his eyes. Any sound that came out of his mouth would be immediately torn apart by the strong wind, so he could only communicate through voice transmission.

Daoist priest Golden Lotus also had her eyes closed, using her primordial spirit to replace her eyes. After receiving Xu Qi ‘an’s message, she asked in surprise,”Stratosphere?”

“I was just making it up. Taoist priest, tell me about number Five’s situation.” Xu Qi ‘an sent a message.

after the internal communication of the heaven and earth meet ended, number five didn’t respond. At that time, I could still sense that the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld was in Xiangzhou. The next day, I suddenly lost contact with the fragment. Daoist priest Golden Lotus said in a deep voice.

“Number five encountered the demonic priest of the earth sect?” Xu Qi ‘an’s expression changed slightly as he made a guess.

“It’s possible.” The Golden Lotus Taoist nodded.

That’s why you invited me, Hengyuan, and Chu Yuanxi to act together … The Taoist priest’s desire to live was quite strong. Xu Qi ‘an nodded and assessed the combat power of his side.

On the surface, she was a martial artist, but in reality, she was a cultivator of the human sect’s swordsmanship. Her true combat power should be at the fourth stage. Even if she had not reached it, she was not far from it.

On the surface, it was a Buddhist system, but in reality, it was the martial arts No. 6, Hengyuan. This was hard to judge, after all, they had never fought before. Hengyuan’s combat experience was also very little.

Then there was the Golden Lotus Daoist priest. He remembered that he had been chased by a level four Purple Lotus cultivator and had escaped all the way to the capital. The Golden Lotus Daoist priest’s ability level should not be any weaker than a level four.

The reason was that he had not been injured by zilian, but by the demonized Dao chief of the earth sect. Even so, he was still able to escape from the pursuit of a grade four Purple Lotus.

“If we encounter the demonic priest of the earth sect, then we’ll be as safe as an old dog for those below third-grade … Xu Qian thought.

Two hours later, Daoist priest Golden Lotus sent a message to everyone.”We’re here. The area within a hundred miles below us should be where number five disappeared. I still can’t sense the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld.”

Everyone descended from the clouds and dove towards the ground.

The surface of the ground became clear. Xu Qi ‘an saw the outline of a large city in the East. With the large city as the core, many villages and small towns were scattered.

The four of them landed in a forest. Daoist priest Golden Lotus and Chu Yuanyou sat cross-legged and meditated to recover their Qi.

Heng Yuan protected them while Xu Qi ‘an strolled around the forest alone. He caught two pheasants and a deer.

When they returned to their meditating spot, Xu Qi ‘an asked, “”Which one of you brought a wok?”

“I’ve brought it,”

Chu Yuanxi opened her eyes and was about to get up and walk into the nearby forest to take out the iron pot. On second thought, she realized that since Xu Qi ‘an knew about the existence of the fragments of the book of the nether world, there was no need to hide it.

Thus, they took out the fragments of the book of the nether world and the iron pot. The four of them started two bonfires, one for stewing meat soup and one for barbecuing.

No matter which system it was, after it was used up, it would have to be replenished with energy. The body could not generate power out of thin air.

“I still have some wine …”

Chu Yuanyang took out two jars of wine and ate them with the barbecue and broth. She explained, “”There are two things you must bring along when you travel. First, pots and pans. Two, toilet paper.”

Xu Qi ‘an raised the porcelain bottle and smiled. now, there’s a third one: chicken essence.

Chu Yuanqi immediately nodded in agreement.

Xu ningyan was an interesting person!

Chu Yuanyou has no flaws, but I can’t give up. I must find a way to kill him.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled.

After eating and drinking to their heart’s content, the Golden Lotus Daoist grabbed a dried branch and tied up his white hair. Then, his face suddenly froze.

“Where’s the Prophet?”

Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an’s face stiffened. What the hell, where’s Zhong Li?

I remember that she was still beside me when we landed, but I don’t know how I forgot about her … Xu Qi ‘an’s face turned pale.

it should be nearby. Let’s look for it together. We must be careful. Also, hurry up. Daoist priest Golden Lotus said in a deep voice, ”

this is more urgent than saving number five. Number five might be fine, but as for the Prophet, if we’re late, we might …

Hengyuan did not understand the Warlock system and asked, “”What?”

“It’ll be cold,” Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice.

Daoist priest Golden Lotus nodded silently.

The four of them quickly dispersed. After 15 minutes, Xu Qi ‘an found Zhong Li. When she descended, she fell into a deep pit. Then, the woman squatted in the deep pit and stopped moving.

It was only when Xu Qi ‘an came over and heard his voice that Zhong Li crawled out.

Beside the bonfire, Zhong Li’s back was facing the crowd. She hugged her knees and sat on the ground. Her shoulders were thin, and her back looked lonely.

“I really didn’t forget you on purpose. Don’t be angry, okay?”

Xu Qi. an apologized and explained,”I’m just, just …” I just forgot.”

Zhong Li hugged her knees and sat there, ignoring him.

Chu Yuanqian clicked her tongue and watched the show with a smile.

Master Hengyuan put his hands together and asked in confusion, “”There’s no danger in the surroundings. Why doesn’t almsgiver Zhong come out on his own?”

“It’s not dangerous for you.” Zhong Li whispered,”according to my past experience, staying where we are and waiting for help is the safest way to deal with such a situation.”

“If I come out, I’ll encounter all kinds of dangers. Maybe meteorites fall from the sky, maybe I’ll encounter great demons or evil cultivators passing by, and so on.

bad luck can’t be pried into or divined. It can happen at any time, such as …

Before she could finish her sentence, the bonfire suddenly crackled, and a string of sparks splashed out, lighting Zhong Li’s hair.

“Be careful!”

Heng Yuan’s expression changed slightly, he subconsciously picked up the hot meat soup and splashed it at Zhong Li.

At that moment, Xu Qi ‘an stood in front of Zhong Li and waved his Qi to sweep away the hot meat soup.

Zhong Li hugged Xu Qi ‘an’s leg and shivered.

Chu Yuanqi was dumbfounded.

The scene fell silent.

In the silent atmosphere, Hengyuan put his hands together and said pitifully, “”Almsgiver Zhong, even if there are tens of thousands of Buddhist lamps in the world, they can’t shine through the darkness around you. Amitabha.”

Daoist priest Golden Lotus and Chu Yuanyou also put their hands together and said pitifully, “”Amitabha.”

Daoist priest, you’re a Big Shot of Daoism, why are you chanting the name of Buddha … Even though Zhong Li was in a terrible state, I still felt like laughing … Xu Qian ridiculed in his heart.

He reached out his hand and patted Zhong Li’s head to comfort her.

when-when we landed just now, I found that there was a problem with the Feng Shui nearby. There was a large tomb under the mountains in the South. Zhong Li whispered.
