Cultivation from the top

Chapter 73
After a whole day of publicity in the city yesterday, there were no people walking around at will last night, and everything was safe and sound.During the daytime of the second day, everyone continued to work and live, although the police car still advertised not to walk around at night.

"Nothing happened yesterday. It can be considered lucky. If we persist for another two days, the special police force will be able to come to Kunlun Mountain City to conduct a thorough investigation."

The director was holding a thermos at the door and told the deputy director beside him.However, this kind of words are more like speaking to the director himself, like a way to comfort his nervous nerves, with affirmation and conviction in his tone.Only in this way can the director feel a little more at ease.

"Did the SWAT team take this long to come?"

The deputy director took a sip of tea and asked a question.

The closest city to the special police stationed in Kunlun Mountain City is only [-] hours away, even if a car is used as a means of transportation.However, it can be inferred from the director's tone that at least he will not be able to arrive at Kunlun Mountain City until the night of the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.It would be understandable if it was delayed by something. There is no question why it was delayed until this time.This is the problem that the deputy director does not understand.

"The special police force can easily come here, but when they heard what happened here, they said that they need to send more manpower and firepower, and it will take some time to prepare."

Not only did the deputy chief have doubts about the time, but even the chief had procedural problems regarding the arrival of the special police force in the past three days.Since the officers in charge of dispatching the manpower answered him in a very positive tone, the director also knew that there was no point in asking further, so he said hello and hung up the phone.

Listening to the director's answer, the deputy director also understood that the director is now in a very awkward position. On the one hand, there are expectations from ordinary people and entrustment from subordinates, and on the other hand, there are vague promises and belated support from the chief.If the director chooses to evade at this time, it is not impossible to avoid everyone's questioning these days, turn off the phone, and hide far away. At most, he will be held accountable for one malfeasance.But the director did not do this, but chose to use the resources that can be mobilized now to prevent the masses from going out at night, strengthen patrols and propaganda during the day, and try their best to last until the arrival of support.Even last night, he slept on the sofa in the police station.This may be the persistence of a man who has understood his responsibilities in middle age and worked hard for it.

"After this is over, go get a drink. I know a place that buys three beers and gets one free."

"It's okay to relax sometimes."

The director is looking forward to the next arrangement.

……

At the foot of Kunlun Mountains.

At this time, there is no water on the ground, and the sun has climbed up.at a woman's feet.

Because in the publicity of the police car all day, one of them is to avoid going out at night, and the other is to avoid going to Kunlun Mountain.The reason is that because of heavy rain, climbing may cause unnecessary accidents.So today, no one comes to visit Kunlun Mountain.

However, this woman standing at the foot of Kunlun Mountain is obviously not here for fun.Wearing brightly colored clothes with large jewels, holding a bamboo basket covered with a black cloth, he looked at the top of the mountain with concern.

"A little late? I was preempted just to buy something?"

When the woman said this, her whole body trembled, as if she was angry that her beloved had been taken away.I just went to take a look at the new jewelry for a while, but when I came back, I found that the cake had been eaten by someone, and the whipped cream around the cake was licked off by the way.If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't just rush forward to ask for an explanation.Being able to be as calm as a woman is also an attitude that she has gradually understood after living for so long.It's called "Peaceless".However, it was just talking quietly, and the woman's whole body was "shaking all over" because of anger.Pushing forward a few hundred years may still be "tears can't stop flowing".

With such anger, the woman walked up the stone steps of Kunlun Mountain.

……

Today is the second day of Immortal Thousand Hands in Kunlun Mountain. The first day is just to study how to cultivate immortals, but today is the first day to try.Because Immortal Thousand Hands has no books to read, and no other helpers or teachers, everything can only be repeated in trials and failures until he is familiar with the various processes before proceeding to the next step.

Even so, Immortal Thousand Hands didn't move around like a headless chicken today, but meditated next to the earth veins.

Yesterday, I tried to forcibly tear open the cracks in the leylines, but the leylines directly bounced them out.Subsequent attempts also failed.The Thousand Hands Immortal, who was exhausted from tossing, had no choice but to use the relatively inefficient way of meditation to recover the lost spiritual power.It is always faster to meditate at the entrance of the ley line than in other places.However, the time it took for the Immortal Thousand Hands to break through the realm and reach the realm of alchemy was too short, and his physical strength and spiritual power were not stable enough, so he wasted a lot. It was not until the sun was three poles high on the next day that the Taoist Thousand Hands slowly opened his eyes and spit out a cloudy mouthful. air.

Daoist Qianshou patted the dust and fallen leaves on his body, feeling something was wrong.

It stands to reason that the earth veins are the place with the strongest aura within a fixed range. It can even be said that there is aura in a certain place because the aura gushing out of the earth veins spreads to that place.Calculating in this way, the aura of the earth veins cannot be said to be abundant, at least it can be said to be moderate.But now the hole of the earth vein beside Immortal Thousand Hands is far from the level imagined.Entering the leylines yesterday and forcibly breaking through the realm, although a part of the aura of the leylines was consumed, but the leylines have the ability to self-recover, this part of the aura should recover soon.But the earth veins here have not recovered, and the overall level of spiritual energy has even dropped a little.This quality of aura can be cultivated if it is in the state of Qi training or foundation building, and even because low-quality aura is a benign supplement for low-level cultivators, the speed of cultivation will be much faster than usual.But Immortal Thousand Hands has already stepped into the realm of alchemy, and needs a lot of spiritual energy to break through the current realm.The leylines cannot fill this role.This made Immortal Thousand Hands feel that something was wrong, and it was very wrong.

However, Immortal Thousand Hands has only seen this ground vein, and has no way to use past experience to infer the current situation, so he can only engage in some groundless wild thoughts.

Just when Immortal Thousand Hands pushed his thinking to a dead end, he felt a strong aura coming up from the foot of the mountain, and it was the kind of aura with malice and hostility, as if he wanted to tear himself apart.

"Good time! I'm so worried that I have nowhere to vent my anger!"

Immortal Thousand Hands took three steps in parallel and rushed down the mountain.
