Chapter 74
Chapter 74 Greedy
Zou Heng has listened to a large section of what Old Man Liu said, and of course he has clearly heard what he wants to express. At the same time, he also has hidden dangers for the god-breathing method he has cultivated. A general understanding.
As he thought in his heart, there really is no easy benefit in this world, but fortunately, things are not the worst kind of situation. On the contrary, the facts are actually better.
“In other words, this fundamental method itself does not have too many hidden dangers. If you don’t use the method that absorbs the essence of food, you won’t even have the fragrance on the body, right!” Zou Heng faced it again. Old man Liu said.
This is actually what he really cares about. What is the purpose of this fundamental law in the first place? Zou Heng now understands it, but today is different from the past. The relationship between the magician and the gods and spirits he worships nowadays, It’s not the relationship between wizards, priests, gods, and spirits in ancient times.
There are indeed some hidden dangers in cultivating the Fundamental Method, but this hidden danger does not seem to be a particularly serious matter. Therefore, it should be no problem if you continue to practice. As long as you control yourself, don’t use the method that absorbs the essence of food lightly. It shouldn’t be a big deal to see that scent on my body.
Zou Heng thought so in his heart, but for the sake of safety, he still opened his mouth and prepared to reconfirm.
Hearing the words, Old Man Liu nodded, and then shook his head, “You are right. As long as you don’t use the method of absorbing the essence of food easily, there will be no hidden dangers in this fundamental method, and it will be a very good one. However, you also think it’s too simple. There are some things that you can’t control if you want to.”
“The true subtlety of this method of breathing energy from the gods lies in absorbing the essence of food. This is a way to prolong life and prolong your life and make you live longer. Over time, you will feel the benefits. And after you feel the benefits, slowly and imperceptibly, it is difficult for you to control yourself not to use it.”
“Even if you can control it, when you practice for a long time, your body will become more pure due to the cultivation of the gods’ breath-eating method, and it will still be easy to attract evil and strange things. If you don’t pay attention at that time, you will lose your life. .”
Hearing his words, Zou Heng nodded silently in his heart. In many things, whether he can underestimate himself too much, but he must never overestimate himself. Maintaining a vigilant heart at all times is definitely a good quality.
Just as Zou Heng was thinking this way, Old Man Liu took a sip of wine and continued to speak.
“Well, your kid is not bad. Your body is stronger than the usual warlock. In a short time, you can continue to practice this fundamental method. When you have the opportunity in the future, you can find a better fundamental method and replace it. That is, or you can find a way to restrain those shortcomings.”
Hearing what the other party said, Zou Heng moved in his heart and asked him, “How can Mr. Liu enlighten me?”
“I can’t tell you, if you can save me from here, I will tell you some ways to restrain my shortcomings. In addition, your kid is very good. I can also consider accepting you as a disciple and teach you some magic techniques!” Zou Heng asked. After this sentence, Old Man Liu said to him clearly.
His purpose is very simple. He wants to see if he has a chance to live. After all, if he can survive, there is no need to seek death with all his heart.
Don’t look at his age now, but his cultivation has reached the peak of the alchemist realm. In his lifetime, it is entirely possible to reach the Profound Profound Realm. If he can reach the Profound Profound Realm, his life span will definitely be extended, so he is now Must seize the opportunity to live.
As a sorcerer in the realm of practice, Old Man Liu did not expect him to save himself in his heart. The reason why he offered Zou Heng a condition to save himself was not Zou Heng himself, but the King of Ren behind him. .
In the eyes of Old Man Liu, the most likely thing to save himself now is Nioh, the target he previously attacked and killed. Apart from him, no one would extend a helping hand to save his life at this sensitive time, so he wanted If he survives, Nioh’s side may be his opportunity.
Zou Heng soon understood a little bit about the old man Liu’s thoughts, and standing still, he was really moved.
Don’t think that the other party is now a prisoner, but the power of the spells that the other party has mastered has reached a level that can be called terrifying.
The sharp gust of wind and the flame that burned the side of the mountain, the power of which still remains fresh in his memory, and most of the injuries he suffered along the way were in the hands of the opponent.
If you can learn the opponent’s spells, Zou Heng’s shortcomings of inadequate attack methods will be compensated instantly, and the strength will also usher in a leap-forward growth in a short time.
Zou Heng had to admit that he was really heartbroken at this moment, and it could even be said that he was a little bit greedy in his heart. If he could, he wanted Li Sheng to force a confession on the spot and let the other party hand over those techniques, but it was rational. Tell him there is no use doing this.
Don’t look at the fact that most warlocks are very knowledgeable about current affairs. When faced with the sufferings of flesh and blood, they seem to be quite spineless, but in fact, this is the wisdom of warlocks. Generally, the warlocks who fall into the hands of the enemy will think about what should be the first time. Said, what should not be said, and how to escape and so on.
Now that Old Man Liu is able to open up his apprentice as a condition, he has already considered these things. Even after a severe torture, don’t even want to ask him about the techniques he has mastered, even if it is possible to ask them. , There is also a high probability of problems.
Standing still thinking about it for a while, Old Man Liu was already full of food and drink at this time, sitting there patiently waiting for Zou Heng.
After some consideration, when Zou Heng finally raised his head, he looked at Old Man Liu and shook his head and said.
“Old Liu’s technique is very tempting to me, but it is a pity that with my ability, I am unable to rescue you from here, so there is no fate between you and me.”
After he said these words, Old Man Liu felt anguish immediately, but on the surface he remained calm, as if Zou Heng’s words had no effect on him.
At this time, I only heard Zou Heng’s conversation and continued to speak: “I can’t save Lao Liu. However, His Royal Highness doesn’t know if it can be saved. Lao Liu is willing to join His Royal Highness. If you want, I can talk to His Royal Highness Nioh about this, and things might turn around!”
“It’s not impossible for you to ask me to take refuge in King Niu, but this consideration of yours may be useless. After all, I attacked and killed Nioh before, and now I am now under his command. Nioh may not have this tolerant. The amount!” Old man Liu said with an embarrassed expression on his face after hearing Zou Heng’s words.
This time, the look on his face was not pretending, but really a little embarrassed. Not to mention the grudges he had before, he said that if everything really followed Zou Heng’s words, then the condition for him to go out was to take refuge in King Ren. This It’s not the same as his plan.
“I will talk about success or failure, let’s see if Lao Liu has this mind. If you are sure that you have this mind, then it is worth trying.” Zou Heng said again.
Hearing this, Old Man Liu looked at Zou Heng, and said to him: “If you can persuade King Ren to save me, then of course I can join King Ren. But then, I will be a colleague in the future. No more!”
“The fate of master and apprentice is fine, as long as Mr. Liu doesn’t let me run in vain.” Zou Heng said with a smile.
“What do you want?” Old man Liu asked, narrowing his eyes.
“I am a warlock, so naturally what I want is a magic technique. Since I don’t have a relationship with Old Master Liu, I dare not ask Old Liu to teach me too many magic techniques. I have seen the magic techniques you use before. , I would like to ask you to teach me one of them!” Zou Heng finally offered his own terms when he heard what the other party said.
After hearing his condition, Old Man Liu was silent for a while, then nodded, saying nothing more.
Seeing this, Zou Heng bowed slightly to him, then nodded to Li Sheng, the two got up and walked out of the cell, leaving the jail all the way.
After coming out of the jail, the two continued to walk together. At this time, Li Shengcai said: “This warlock is very powerful. If he can really put himself under the command of Nioh, it will indeed be a big help for the current Nioh. This matter You did a good job!”
Zou Heng glanced at Li Sheng, then shook his head slightly and said, “The fundamental starting point for me to do this is because I was greedy and greedy with other people’s techniques, and I was unable to save him, so I just If I can think of such a compromise, compared to pursuing power in the capital, my favorite is magic!”
When Li Sheng heard Zou Heng’s words, he suddenly glanced at Zou Heng. There seemed to be a vague expression in his words, and that was that he seemed to have a hint of carelessness.
“The mage can actually think about it. The scenery of the royal capital may not be as good as the outside. The danger in the court is also a kind of experience. Moreover, in the royal capital, the wizard can find a lot of sorcerers to exchange, and want to learn new things. There are actually a lot of opportunities in the royal capital for spells.”
After thinking about it, Li Sheng persuaded Zou Heng that he still hoped that a young and promising warlock like Zou Heng could continue to stay in the capital. In time, Zou Heng will definitely become a character and let him stay in the king. They also hope that Zou Heng can serve the country.
“The capital of the king is good, but the magic is more attractive to me. This prosperous and beautiful scenery did not make me feel greedy, but a magic technique has made me greedy. After all, it is a different kind of ambition, which is valued in my heart. Things are also different.” Zou Heng turned to look at Li Sheng and said.
While they were talking, the two reached a fork in the road. After Zou Heng smiled and saluted, he turned and walked towards the fork in the road, leaving Li Sheng to stop watching his back for a long time.
