Chapter 27: Steady and Timid, the Bullhead of Hell
Li Che never thought of letting Lei Chunlan go. It was a rare encounter and he would feel uneasy unless he killed her.
He twisted his neck and felt the muscles in his back tense up.
Xu's nine tendons, Li Che opened nine big tendons in a row. Now his single cultivation has reached the perfection of tendon opening, and he is only one step away from bone tempering.
In one month, Li Che's transformation was huge. Now that he has activated the Diamond Transformation of [Dragon Elephant Dao Fruit], he is absolutely sure to kill Zhao Chuanxiong and his Bagua Stick accomplice!
I originally planned to go find Zhao Chuanxiong and kill this threat after this incident was over.
But I never thought that during my trip to the inner city... I would meet Lei Chunlan.
Hiding in the inner city, no wonder Li Che disguised his identity to look for Lei Chunlan, but to no avail.
He shook his sleeves, and the hidden sleeve crossbow and thousand spider silks were ready. The eyes under the mask flashed with coldness and murderous intent.
With a stomp of his feet, his body suddenly jumped out of the alley.
…
…
The curtains fluttered gently.
It rises and falls, as if it moves with every breath of a person.
Xu Beihu sat on a chair, the water stove was boiling, the heat was surging, and the gurgling sound was endless. He was making tea by himself, and the aroma was fragrant.
Si Mubai was standing in front of the "Nine Songs of Guanyin Weeping to Suppress Ghosts" carved by Li Che. At this moment, the wooden sculpture had lost its original appearance, as if it had been eroded by years of wind and frost, and had changed beyond recognition.
If you look carefully, you can see that there are countless fine holes underneath the wood carving, just like the remains left behind after being corroded and devoured by woodworms.
For a long time, Si Mubai trembled all over, took a step back, shed two lines of hot tears, seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time, and slapped the statue that was reduced to rotten wood. In an instant, the entire statue was reduced to debris with a "boom".
"Yes, it tastes really good."
Si Mubai stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
"Although it does not contain divinity like the master's wood carving, and it cannot capture the divinity wandering between heaven and earth... it is already very good. If I accumulate this meaning three or four times more, I can make it into a ray of divinity. For me, [Crying to suppress ghosts] is of great help.”
Si Mubai sat back on the rosewood Taishi chair and took the fine Pu'er tea from Xu Beihu.
"You Xu Ji, you have found a treasure. This is a perfect master's seedling. As long as you are willing to cultivate it, you will be the next wood carving master."
Si Mubai said with some envy.
A smile bloomed on Xu Beihu's rugged face: "You haven't even written your horoscope yet. How can it be so easy to become a wood carving master, and you have to be loyal... I, Xu Ji, have trained so many wood carving masters for more than two hundred years. Maybe There are only a few masters of wood carving."
"If you don't want it, let me give it to the Si family." Si Mubai took a sip of tea and smiled half-heartedly.
"The old woman is the work of the Si family? She seems to be someone from the Lingying Cult. If you are related to the Lingying Cult, the Si family doesn't care about you?" Xu Beihu's smile instantly faded and he said lightly.
Simu Bai put down the teacup: "Don't be so against the Lingying Cult. Things coming out of the weird temple are not all bad and evil. The imperial court used force to suppress the temple, and Shenzong cut down the mountains and destroyed the temple. It's not all because of the weird temple. Is there anything good in it?”
"Divinity, divine magic, martial arts, martial arts... all kinds of inheritance... all come from the weird temple, so why are you resisting?"
Simubai said with a smile while drinking tea.
"The imperial court asked us to recruit divine soul boys and train them to become talents, so that we can explore those weird temples that they cannot spare their time to explore. I heard from friends in Kyoto that the great gods in the imperial court are all exploring with all their strength. That new weird temple called Sanqing outside Kyoto.”
"The imperial court is exploring, accepting and integrating, so why should we resist?"
Si Mubai shook his head.
Xu Beihu said solemnly: "The Weird Temple is the Weird Temple, and the Lingying Sect is the Lingying Sect. Don't confuse them together."
"If you don't say this, I have my own sense of caution. Feilei City is governed by aristocratic families like us, how can I not take it to heart?"
Si Mubai waved his hand and didn't take it seriously.
"On the other hand, speaking of Li Che, he is well aware of current affairs and very steady. When he heard that Lei Chunlan was eyeing his daughter, he could not bear to do anything... He is really timid."
Simu Bai said.
"This is stability. Although he relies on my Xu family, he can't be sure that the Xu family will support him. He must hate Lei Chunlan, but he is very sensible and knows that your Si family is protecting Lei Chunlan, and his own strength is not strong. , once the quarrel breaks out, there is no way to end it, the two families will look bad, and they have no choice but to take a step back and seek stability. "
Xu Beihu said calmly.
"To sum it up, this person is... stable, cowardly, and not something to be afraid of."
…
…
Jinhuang Pavilion.
Li Che turned into a black shadow and approached quietly. Now that he has activated [Dragon Elephant King Kong], he can probably display his perfect bone-tempering strength. He can open nine big tendons and the explosive force can reach ten thousand kilograms.
But in fact, he was just opening up his muscles and perfecting his strength.
Dragon Elephant King Kong allows him to gain a burst of power across a large realm.
The big tendons on his back tensed up, and the released force bounced onto the ground, raising snow silently, and Li Che's body floated out.
He leaned against the wall and rushed into Jinhuang Pavilion. He had entered once before, so he was familiar with the road.
Jinhuang Pavilion is very large and spacious, like a courtyard of aristocratic family, with crisscrossed alleys and criss-crossing streets.
There are even guards patrolling the area. These guards are not weak in strength and have the ability to open tendons.
Li Che hid in the darkness and watched indifferently.
There are several aristocratic families behind the Jinhuang Pavilion, which is a common industry, so few people dare to come to the Jinhuang Pavilion to cause trouble. Therefore, although there are guards, they seem a bit lazy.
Li Che easily avoided the guards and recalled the direction that Lei Chunlan went after she went down.
His body rose and fell, and the power that could be exerted by the perfect bone tempering made him extremely fast. Ordinary people couldn't even see his shadow clearly.
Li Che didn't know what the relationship between Si Mubai and Lei Chunlan was, nor did he know what deal the Si family had with the Lingying Sect...
He didn't care about these?
This Lei Chunlan wanted to harm his daughter Xixi, and Li Che had only one goal.
Beat her to death!
...
...
In a luxurious courtyard.
There were many rockery and the shade of the trees was hazy.
Lei Chunlan changed into a clean brocade dress, leaned against the railing, looked at the Si family guard who was guarding her yard, and looked at the scenery in the yard. A smile appeared on her wrinkled old face.
"It is worthy of being the most luxurious and extravagant Jinhuang Pavilion in the inner city. It is really a good place to enjoy. I, an old woman, have suffered all my life, and now I can finally live such a life."
"This is the life of a human being."
Lei Chunlan smiled brightly like an old chrysanthemum blooming.
The Lingying Sect gave her something she had never enjoyed before.
"As long as the Si family agrees to the deal with the master of the law, I, an old woman, can become a guest of honor of the Si family... and enjoy endless wealth and glory."
Lei Chunlan's body trembled slightly with excitement.
She brought those babies to this world and let these babies exchange for her wealth and glory... It's reasonable, right?
"Unfortunately, Li Che is really steady. He knew that I was related to the Lingying Sect, so he moved into Xuji Woodcarving Shop... I was so lucky that a mere porter could become a woodcarver of Xuji."
"It's a pity for the Lingying, it's full of divinity... If I could offer it to the Master of the Law, I could even inherit the Master's divine law! From then on, I would be a superior person!"
Lei Chunlan clenched her fists, her old eyes widened, a little unwilling.
"It doesn't matter. I'm now connected with the Si family, and sooner or later I can get the Lingying..."
"A woodcarver from Xuji Woodcarving Shop is just an ant in front of such a behemoth like the Si family."
Hu——
The sky, which had stopped for a while, seemed to feel the coldness of the world and sent down heavy snow.
The snowflakes blurred her vision.
Lei Chunlan rubbed her hands and exhaled a breath of hot air: "What a damn weather."
She turned around and began to operate the hot stove and add charcoal to it.
Suddenly, her movements froze slightly, and her neck stiffly raised.
Then she saw a cluster of rockery in the courtyard.
A burly figure as big as a hill, wearing a bamboo hat and a cute cow mask, stood in the raging snow like a halberd that was about to pierce through the sky.
His eyes were piercing, like the devil with a bull's head in hell.
He looked at her with coldness and murderous intent.
