Liao Zhai's Refining God

"Flying sword!" The two women were stunned when they saw it. This kind of flying sword that only existed in legends appeared in front of them. How could they not be frightened.
"Shangxian, please forgive me. My sister and I have always practiced peacefully in the mountains. We have never harmed anyone, so we beg for mercy." The two women fell to their knees and wept.Obviously, they knew that it would be foolish to pretend to be human again at this time.
"If you are so proficient in using poison, you must be a habitual offender. I'm afraid there are quite a few people who have eaten it!" Wang Lin said coldly.
"Shangxian, our sisters have eaten a few, but they are all lustful with evil intentions. If they hadn't had evil intentions, our sisters' poison would not have fascinated them. This is their own fault." The older woman Seeing that he couldn't hide it, he immediately quibbled.
"What my sister said is that our poison is only effective for those who have a lustful heart and accelerated blood flow, and it is useless for noble monks like Shangxian." The smaller woman also said softly.
"As the saying goes, everyone has a love of beauty, and being impulsive does not necessarily mean a bad person. For example, this lord, he just has the instinctive impulse of a man, but his identity, status, knowledge, and etiquette education make him very rational. You won't do anything outrageous, but you still fascinated him. If I wasn't here, you might have eaten him raw." Wang Lin pointed at the middle-aged man.
"He's just a hypocrite. If we sisters go any further, he might have already undressed. Young Master An knows what he's thinking in his heart." The woman quibbled.
"In this way, I should die too. I'm actually moved, but you poisons are too low-level to enter my body. Haha." Wang Lin smiled.
"If the young master is willing, our sisters are willing to serve. Our sisters are good at this. I will ensure that the young master is satisfied." The woman said.
"Hehe, I don't have the appetite for a monstrosity that has not yet fully transformed. Well, the long night is just boring. I just teased you just now. I won't tease you now. You can go on the road." Wang Lin said.
"Chi Chi!" The two demons turned around and ran away as soon as they heard it, not too slow.Wang Lin's flying sword chased after them. When the two monsters fled to the mountain road, Chuyang's little sword turned into a stream of light and pierced the two monsters back and forth in an instant. True Spirit took it back.
The two demons showed their original shape and fell into the snow. They were two foxes as big as calves, with fluffy and soft gray fur.Wang Lin put it in the storage bag. Every monster is very valuable. Although the two foxes' cultivation base is really not high, and their combat power is estimated to be extremely low, their fur is indeed very good.
In fact, if the 30-year-old man was vigilant based on the cultivation of these two demon foxes, if they were not allowed to enter the house, they might not be the man's opponent at all.Even Wang Lin suspected that the group of wolves were also controlled by these two fox demons earlier, and they were skilled in doing evil, and they probably did it a lot.
Wang Lin inspected the middle-aged man who had passed out, and found that there was no major problem, but the blood flow was too fast, and it was just a kind of drug.Therefore, Wang Lin continued to sleep on the blanket she had spread, with Chu Yang Xiaojian guarding her side, Wang Lin was not worried at all that evil spirits could approach her, unless her cultivation was much higher than her own.
"My lord, my lord!" Early the next morning, the 30-year-old man was the first to wake up, and hurried to help the fainted middle-aged man. He felt the pulse of the middle-aged man and found that the pulse was stable and there was no serious problem. Breathe a sigh of relief.
"Those two women!" The 30-year-old man looked around and found that the two women were no longer there. Other than that, everything was normal. His subordinates were lying on the ground one by one, in the same position as when they fell down.Only the scholar was still huddled in a corner and sleeping soundly, as if he hadn't noticed what happened last night at all.
"Stupid people have stupid blessings!" The young man in his thirties who survived the catastrophe couldn't help being jealous of Wang Lin, and muttered.Recalling what happened last night, it seemed unreal like a dream, but he knew that it happened for real.
Chapter 271 On the Road
Afterwards, the 30-year-old man infused some qi into the middle-aged man to help him regulate his qi and blood. Originally, the poison had almost dissipated, but the middle-aged man woke up soon after the conditioning.
"Keep in mind. You saved me last night?" the middle-aged man said calmly.
When the 30-year-old man heard this, a gleam of joy appeared on his face. The middle-aged people used to call him by his official title, but now he directly calls him by his name, which shows that after what happened last night, the relationship between the two has taken a step further.This is a good thing, after all, this middle-aged man is someone he admires.In the future, they will be together as officials for many years, and they will also be his immediate superiors. A close relationship is naturally a good thing.
"I'm ashamed, I just woke up, I don't know where the two female assassins went last night. Someone must have saved us." Li Jicheng did not pretend to claim credit, but said sincerely.
"Who could it be? People from the capital or from Xiyuan Prefecture!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but shook his head after thinking for a moment, feeling a little disappointed. It seemed that some people didn't want to see themselves become princes outside the Great Wall, and didn't want themselves to go to the post alive.
"The pond in Xiyuan Mansion is very deep!" Then he said softly.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely help you stabilize the situation in Xiyuan Mansion." Li Jicheng said in a deep voice.
"Naturally, you and I have to unite with sincerity and go to meet the gangsters in Xiyuan Mansion. We also need to find out why the previous mansion died." The middle-aged man said.Li Jicheng nodded silently, feeling a lot of pressure.
Soon, the guards and followers who fell on the ground woke up one by one. The horses outside were intact, which was a blessing in misfortune.
"Let that scholar go on the road together. It's not safe to let him study in the Jiangbei Corridor alone." Soon, everyone simply ate some dry food and prepared to go on the road. After all, we have to rush to Heishi County today, otherwise we will have to sleep in the wilderness again. .Looking at the situation outside, the heavy snow doesn't seem to be stopping. If it weren't for this stone house, sleeping on the barren mountain would probably be frozen to death.The middle-aged man ordered.
"My lord, after passing this mountain ridge, you can ride ahead. It happens that each person has a horse. If there are not too many horses, we will give this scholar. If we take him with us, our trip will be delayed. If we can't make it at night When I arrived in Heishi County, I was worried that my lord would be in danger, so I better not take this scholar with me, your lord's safety is important." Li Jicheng said.
"The first snow and the full moon, this heavy snow will continue to fall for a while. After this mountain ridge, the snow should be knee-deep. We can't just watch this frail scholar trapped to death in this barren mountain. Let them Give this scholar a horse, you are all masters in martial arts, walking in the knee-less snow nest should not be a problem." The middle-aged man looked at the vast snow mountain and said.
"Yes, I understand!" the 30-year-old man hurriedly said.Immediately, he asked one of his men to wake Wang Lin up.
"The scholar, what's your name, where are you a scholar?" After eating some dry food, the group was about to go on the road, and the middle-aged man asked Wang Lin with interest.
"The student is Wang Lin, a scholar from Guobei County, Jinhua Prefecture!" Wang Lin said.
"Oh!" The middle-aged man's eyes lit up as soon as he heard it and said, "But Wang Lin, the scholar who did "Song of Righteous Qi" and "When Will the Moon Come?"?"
"It's Xiaosheng!" Wang Lin said.
"Hahaha. Only people with your temperament can write such good poems. It's very lucky to meet you!" The middle-aged man laughed loudly.
"Your Excellency is ridiculous!" Wang Lin said hastily.The middle-aged man smiled slightly and followed the guards out the door without answering.
"You scholar didn't understand what your lord meant at all. You are lucky to have met us. If not, you would have been devoured by wolves last night. Looking at the snow conditions today, after passing this mountain road, there is snow up to your knees. If you don’t make it to Heishi County tonight, you’re going to freeze to death in the wilderness.” The 30-year-old man couldn’t see it, and when the middle-aged man walked away, he deliberately fell behind Wang Lin and said in a low voice.
"Thank you, Xiaosheng!" Wang Lin smiled slightly and bowed.
"If you want to thank you, you should thank your lord. If you hadn't met such a good person as my lord, you would not have such a good fortune to survive this disaster. I know that you scholars like to use your emotions, and you will never turn back for the so-called romance, but you must also take into account Danger around you. This world is not safe, don't act recklessly." Li Jicheng reminded cryptically.
"Haha." Wang Lin didn't care, and smiled lightly.Seeing Wang Lin's attitude, Li Jicheng didn't say any more, his body swayed forward and merged into the wind and snow, tightly protecting the middle-aged man and continuing to walk along the mountain road.The guards at the back greeted Wang Lin to follow according to his instructions.
Just as they analyzed, after passing this rugged mountain road, there is a valley in front of it. The road is much wider, and it seems to have stepped into a plateau. Difficulty walking.
"Get on the horse!" A guard gave Wang Lin his horse very unhappy.After all, which middle-aged man's order was this, and he had to follow it.
"Thank you!" Wang Lin bowed and nodded, and got on the horse.
"Come and ride my horse!" Li Jicheng waved to the guard who lost his horse.
"My lord, you can just walk!" the guard hurriedly refused nervously.
"Obey the order. Your cultivation level is not enough, and your walking is too slow. Don't affect our itinerary!" Li Jicheng said.
"Thank you, my lord!" The guard looked grateful, and carefully got on Li Jicheng's horse. Li Jicheng walked in front, walking on the snow with a sway of his body. His ankles, walking on the snow like flowing water, quite fast.
A group of people marched against the wind and snow. At noon, they took shelter in a mountain depression, ate some dry food, drank some wine and continued on their way. At dusk, they passed a mountain pass. Looking ahead, a plateau appeared among the mountains.
"Brothers, work harder, Heishi County will arrive soon. Tonight we can sleep on the kang, drink hot rice, and take a hot bath." Li Jicheng cheered.
"Ho Ho Ho!" The guards roared excitedly.They were originally the imperial guards of the capital, and they were pampered and pampered at ordinary times. They had never suffered such hardships. Li Jicheng said so, and his morale has improved a lot.
"It seems that the guess is correct, this Li Jicheng is a soldier!" Wang Lin thought.
"Be careful!" After walking forward for less than a hundred meters, two figures came quickly behind him.Li Jicheng quickly stopped the team and parked on the side of the road.The guards were nervously guarding the middle-aged man one by one.
At this time, Li Jicheng's heart was shocked. There were two young people who came. The man was dressed in white clothes like snow, with a piece of blue jade hanging on his belt, and a sword hanging from his waist; With a red cloak and a dagger in his hand, the two came side by side.
Chapter 272
The reason why Li Jicheng was shocked was not because the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful.Rather, they were shocked by the cultivation of the two. They seemed unhappy in the wind and snow, but their figures flew past the crowd; moreover, the snowflakes could not get close to the two of them when the wind moved them, and they were automatically bounced away, which seemed extremely strange.
Naturally, Wang Lin could tell that the two of them activated the innate zhenqi to form the body-protecting stellar qi to isolate the snowflakes, but they needed to continuously consume the innate zhenqi to turn it into a stellar qi cyclone, which required continuous consumption of energy.
After entering the Xiantian Realm, Wang Lin can naturally do it, and if Wang Lin condenses the Flowing Cloud Sword Qi, the effect will be even better.
But Wang Lin disdained it. Even though she was promoted to the Xiantian Realm, the acupoints in her body were opened, forming an energy field one by one. It can be said that now all the energy fields are gathered together. It is really as vast as a lake, and it takes some innate qi to shield it. Snowflake is just a drop in the bucket, and looks unusually chic, like a fairy.But at critical times, even if there is a little less energy, especially when two Xiantian realms are fighting, the slightest difference is death.
From the perspective of cultivation, the man should be on the eighth floor of the Qi refining period, and the woman should be on the seventh floor of the Qi refining period.The two of them are about the same age as Wang Lin, so it's pretty good to reach this level of cultivation at such an age, obviously they come from a big cultivation sect.Reminiscent of the proximity of Xiyuan Mansion to Kunlun Mountain, I am afraid that the two of them have something to do with Kunlun Jianmen.
"Bang!" At this moment, the long sword on the man's waist was unsheathed in an instant, leaped out of the hilt and hit a guard's chest. .
"The next time you look at my junior sister like this again, it will kill you!" the man said awe-inspiringly.
"You!" Li Jicheng was furious, his palms covered the steel knife at his waist as if he was about to strike, but in the end he held back, only tightly protecting the middle-aged man, staring at the two of them coldly, thinking That is jealous and aggrieved.
"Senior brother, why do you need to know these mortals like ants? Let's go!" The woman smiled lightly, looking at Wang Lin and the others as if she were looking at a group of ants.
"Alas. A chivalrous man uses martial arts to break the ban, and the world will be in chaos soon!" The middle-aged man suddenly sighed.In his opinion, these two young men should be martial arts masters.Far stronger than Li Jicheng.
Wang Lin smiled lightly. Although the middle-aged man saw something, he didn't see it very clearly. If the two were just martial arts masters, the court might still control them.After all, the imperial court controls the talented common people, possesses wealth and connections.
But they are immortal cultivators. With the growth of their cultivation, they have far surpassed the power of the worldly martial arts. If they swell up at that time, I am afraid that the laws of the court will not be able to restrain them. With the display of spells, this country will eventually form a separate situation controlled by the forces of cultivators.Xia Guo's imperial power may soon be emptied.
Soon, Heishi County finally showed its outline in the wind and snow. Heishi County is not big, but the city walls are not short.
At this time, the sky had completely dimmed, and there were faint figures of guards swaying above the city gate.A group of people rode into the city, the streets were covered with snow, the shops and people's doors on both sides were closed, and there was no one in the snow.
"Hihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Wang Lin used the qi-watching technique to observe, and found nothing wrong.However, Chuyang Xiaojian was so warning, it was obvious that there was something strange, after all, Wang Lin's qi-watching technique was far behind Chuyang Xiaojian's detection of the surrounding qi.
"Maybe there are ghosts and demons in this city who are cultivating yin and ghost spirits." Wang Lin pondered, and only this kind of evil existence can cause Chuyang's small sword to vibrate, because its aura belongs to the most yang. Extremely repulsed by such evil things.
Nowadays, the heavens are chaotic, and it is normal for the city to be mixed with evil spirits. Some monks even practice this kind of evil skills.Wang Lin has been in contact with the Ancient Ming Sect, and knows that their true energy is very strange and evil.Therefore, Wang Lin comforted Chuyang Xiaojian and calmed him down.However, this also made Wang Lin more vigilant.
"My lord, where is the light!" A guard pointed forward joyfully.
In the middle of the street, a light flashed from the house, warming people's hearts.When I got closer, I saw that it was a hotel with the words "Black Stone Hotel" written on it.
The guards dismounted and tied the horses to the stable next to the hotel, and a group of people walked into the hotel.After all, along the way, it seemed that only this inn was open.
"Guest officer, it's cold outside. Please come in and look for your own location. I'll serve each of you a bowl of warm wine to warm up later." When he came to the door of the hotel, a 20-year-old waiter with a white towel on his shoulders wrapped the heavy The wooden door opened, and Dao came up to him at the same time. After everyone entered, he closed the door, and the wind and snow were blocked outside the door in an instant, and a warm air rushed towards his face.
There is a firepit right in the middle of the hotel, with raging flames burning inside, making the hotel look extremely warm.
At this time, everyone found that besides the waiter in the hotel, there was a shopkeeper in his 60s or [-]s standing in front of the counter.There are two other guests, a man and a woman whom we met earlier.Li Jicheng and others were afraid of these two people, so they avoided them and chose a seat. The guards all silently lowered their heads and did not dare to look at the woman.
And the two of them occupied the best positions, chatting as if no one else was there, the man would tell a joke to the woman from time to time, with a very flattering look, which made the woman laugh uncontrollably.
"Guest officer, the wine is here!" Not long after, the shop waiter brought up bowls of steaming wine, and a strong aroma of wine permeated the room, causing everyone to salivate.
"I didn't expect such good wine in this barren and small Heishi County." Even a man or a woman did not refuse, and turned their attention to the wine.Obviously also attracted by the aroma of the wine.The man even appreciated it.
"Don't drink!" The two guards accompanying Wang Lin and the others saw that the waiter brought the drink over, and reached out to take it regardless of appearance, and immediately poured it into their mouths.Their cultivation base is not high enough, the sky is cold, and their bodies are cold, so they naturally want to drink warm wine to warm up.But Wang Lin immediately stopped them with a shout.
This sound startled the two of them.And the man among the man and the woman also picked up the drink and was about to put it in his mouth. Hearing what Wang Lin said, he looked at Wang Lin with hesitation and said, "Your scholar, why don't you let him drink?"
"This wine is poisonous!" Wang Lin said.
Chapter 273
"Guest officer, we have been operating in Blackstone City for a hundred years. This wine is also our ancestral craft. It has never been exposed to outsiders. How can it be said to be poisonous? We are a small business. Once the word of the guest officer spreads, how can we still be in this Blackstone city?" The county has a foothold, this is going to destroy our small shop!" Before the waiter could leave the door, the shopkeeper on the counter hurried over and begged.His attitude is extremely sincere, and he looks at a loss.
After the man heard about it, he turned his palm over, took out a silver needle, dipped it into the wine, and took a closer look, but the silver needle didn't change in any way.
"This drink is not poisonous at all!" The man thought he was being played with, and immediately looked at Wang Lin with a cold expression.
"I've already reminded you, it's up to you whether to drink or not!" Wang Lin said bluntly.
"You scholar is really looking for death!" Seeing this, the man became more and more sure that his previous behavior had angered the scholar. The scholar deliberately frightened him and made him embarrass himself in front of his junior sister. .
"Don't say a few words, the silver needle has already been tried, so it won't be poisonous! These people are not something we can offend." Li Jicheng was afraid that the swordsman would violently kill people, so he hurriedly stood in front of Wang Lin and reminded.
This actually made Wang Lin look at Li Jicheng with admiration, knowing that she was invincible, she still stood in front of her.
"Yes, yes, you are a frail scholar, you are studying for the first time, and you don't know anything about Jianghu, you are just talking nonsense." A guard couldn't hold back for a long time, and muttered something and was going to drink.
"Tch!" Wang Lin moved her palm, and a cyclone shot out from her palm. The guard's drink was instantly taken into Wang Lin's hand, and a light red halo flashed on Wang Lin's fingertips. There was a puff of black air, which collided with Wang Lin's fingertips and turned into a puff of green smoke with an extremely unpleasant smell.
The reason why Wang Lin could feel that the wine was poisonous was also reminded by Chu Yang Xiaojian. The wine seemed warm, but contained a sinister aura in it. Probing the needle, it is clear that the toxin is not a pure substance.
"He's a master!" Li Jicheng was shocked when he saw Wang Lin's movements. He didn't expect that after walking together for so long, he didn't find that Wang Lin was also a natural master.
Because of the ability to take away the wine bowl out of thin air, Li Jicheng can't even do it. Although he is in the realm of true energy, he needs to rely on his skills. Genuine Qi emerges out of form and ingests objects at will, which is the ability of innate Zhen Qi.
"He also chased away the two girls that night!" Li Jicheng immediately understood.At the same time, the sweat oozed from the forehead. If Wang Lin was the assassin who assassinated the Lord, they would have died long ago.Because there is nothing unusual about Wang Lin, she is just an ordinary scholar.
"Hey!" The man looked at Wang Lin's method and knew that the wine was indeed poisonous, but the toxin was weird and unpredictable, and his silver needle hadn't found it.So at this moment, embarrassment turned into anger, and the long sword was instantly unsheathed, turning into a stream of light, and the sword gang roared and shot towards the innkeeper.
"Boom!" At this time, when Wang Lin used her means to expose the poisonous wine, the shopkeeper had quietly backed away.At this time, the man's sword light shot towards him like a rainbow, his body shook suddenly, black aura shot out all over his body, and at the same time there was a staff in his hand, and a strange black shot shot out from the staff. The stellar energy of the man met the man's sword light in an instant. Under the blow, the stellar wind roared. The man drew his sword hastily, thinking that the shopkeeper was just an ordinary person. Of course he suffered a big loss at this time and was overturned When he went out, he bumped into the table he was sitting on in an instant, knocking the table apart and spilling the wine all over him, looking extremely embarrassed.
But at this time, everyone looked at the shopkeeper again, and immediately gasped.The top of his pure black staff was inlaid with the baby's skull, a layer of black air was covering the skull, and there were two soul fires jumping in his eyes.But at this time, the mouth, eyes, and nose of the skull started to spray out ghost mist as thick as ink, which was quite frightening.
And as the two fought, all the lights in the hotel were instantly extinguished, and even the flames in the fire pit were extinguished instantly as if they were being extinguished by water.A cold and strange atmosphere enveloped the entire hotel, and a large number of fog clusters swarmed in.
"Woooooo!" In the fog, miserable cries filled the entire room, which were the howls of ghosts; at the same time, a very strange and cold aura attacked everyone.
"Protect your lord!" Li Jicheng still did not forget his duty at this time, and quickly greeted him.But the guards under him were terrified. They had never seen such a scene before. Three of them howled and ran indiscriminately. They just ran near the side door and let out a scream. In the dark.
"The two of us are disciples of the Kunlun Sword Gate. Wait until Xie Xiu'an dares to be rampant, and don't retreat quickly." When it was unsheathed, the innate qi filled it, emitting a glowing light, illuminating a piece in the black mist.
"Kunlun Jianmen, it's okay to scare others, we are not afraid of you. I can only say that you two are unlucky. We are working on business today, and you broke in so desperately, so stay." A sullen The sound echoed in the house.It was the voice of the shopkeeper from before.
"Do you know who we two are!" the man roared.
"Brother, shut up!" the woman hurriedly stopped her.In this case, he was not as calm as his junior sister.
"Brother Wang, protect your lord and leave later, leave us alone." Li Jicheng stretched out his palm and held Wang Lin heavily.
"I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee it!" Wang Lin said.
"Brother Wang, Your Excellency is about to take office in Xiyuan Mansion, the chief official of the frontiers. The safety of the people of the whole prefecture depends entirely on your Lord, so there must be no loss!" Li Jicheng pleaded again.
"It doesn't make any sense for you to tell me these things. The reason why I made a move is because Master Futai and you treated me well before. That's all. If there is nothing I can do, I will leave decisively." Wang Lin said indifferently.
"Remember, little brother saved us once last night, just like what little brother said, if something cannot be done, there is no point in sacrificing for nothing." The middle-aged man said very calmly at this time.
"Hey!" At this moment, the long sword on Wang Lin's waist suddenly came out of its sheath and fell into her palm. A light red sword light pierced through the mist as quickly as lightning, and instantly blocked a dark light. The black mist covered the knife gang; it attacked and killed Li Jicheng from the side.
Wang Lin's Flowing Cloud Sword Qi sliced through his knife gang in an instant, and the momentum remained undiminished. The sword glow shot out, turned suddenly in the air, and instantly pierced the waiter's throat.
