Chapter 8 I Am the Only Immortal
Li's family, backyard.
There is only one lonely wooden house in the huge backyard.
There are all kinds of secret guards around to block anyone from entering.
Over the years, the deaths of two concubines and eight servants have made the people of the Li family understand that rules must not be broken.
When the two brothers came here, Li Qingshi solemnly held a jade box and walked into the house.
A bronze mirror was enshrined in the house.
This mirror is related to the rise and fall of the family and is the source of their wealth. Li Qingquan's bedroom is even not far away, guarding this thing day and night.
The two knelt down immediately and recited articles praising the gods.
Li Qingshi's heart was undoubtedly very uneasy.
When the gods gave the talisman, the two brothers spent five years to get started and ten years to practice six spells.
Another five years to develop the family.
In the next ten years, their tributes became less and less worthy of the gods' favor, and no new spells or treasures were taught for nearly ten years.
After the two brothers left the Fairy in the Mirror, they could not practice anything. "I hope you enjoy it!"
The two placed the box in front of the mirror.
Soon, the mirror glowed and the box disappeared.
Another world.
Xu Xuan slowly opened the box, and inside lay a thumb-sized light red round crystal stone and some pepper-sized crystal stones.
The light red light slowly flowed inside the crystal, extremely mysterious.
Xu Xuan could sense the energy that did not belong to this world.
"Low-grade spirit stones? And some inferior spirit crystals? Haha, God help me!!"
Xu Xuan could not suppress his excitement.
Three years! !
Finally, he had the opportunity to contact the legendary immortal way.
According to the novels of the previous life, cultivating immortals often requires one to be young, and it is not easy to break through later.
"Hey, why do others travel through higher worlds, but I travel through lower worlds!"
Xu Xuan wanted to roar to the sky.
However, there are also benefits in this world.
That is...
Xu Xuan's face became serious, and his eyes looked out the window.
"I am the only immortal in the world!"
There is no safer place than here.
Where there are many immortal cultivators, there are also many conflicts. Didn't you see that Li Qingshi has been trapped in the town and can't get out? Now their situation is even more critical.
If you are not careful, you will lose everything.
Just thinking about it, Xu Xuan reflected the last two corpse-driving talismans and corpse-fixing talismans on the mirror.
Giving them spells is also to let them experiment and see what detours need to be avoided.
Mirror world.
Li Qingshi and his brother were shocked when they saw the words on the mirror.
"The secret art of driving corpses! Haha, the family is prosperous!!"
Li Qingshi was ecstatic.
It's worth it, it's totally worth it.
Those fire-calling talismans and hemostasis talismans before were common spells in the cultivation world. They were not very powerful. Most of the beginners knew them.
The Li family was stuck in the town because of this.
The town is the safest. If you go up, you will have to face these wolf-like immortal cultivators.
It's different now.
The art of driving corpses is a secret method that ordinary immortal cultivators do not have. And this spell can also produce cannon fodder in batches.
A unique secret method is the key to the prosperity of the family.
The two brothers walked out of the door.
Li Qingquan said afterward: "Brother, I told you that we can only rely on the fairy in the mirror to revitalize the family."
With the secret method in hand, Li Qingshi's morale increased greatly, "After returning, we will first bow to Heihefang and give up the family's interests. We will study the secret method of driving corpses in private and kill them at the critical moment."
"Yes!"
...
Lizhuang.
In the secret room, Xu Xuan sat cross-legged.
He has been preparing all the time over the years. Although he has not officially started practicing by observing the two brothers' practice, he has already gained experience.
Keep a close eye on the spiritual platform and calm your mind.
Xu Xuan's consciousness began to become blurred, forgetting his body and integrating into the world.
To practice Chenzhou Talisman, you need to recite the mantra of tranquility. After learning the mantra of tranquility and having true qi in your body, you can draw the talisman.
The way of cultivation, from low to high, can be divided into: nourishing qi, practicing qi, building foundation, golden elixir, primordial infant, etc.
Days passed by one by one.
Li Hu lived a relatively leisurely life. Now even the task of selling private salt was given to Xu Xuan.
In addition to selling private salt, Xu Xuan also established good relations with the captains of Shanzhai, Yizhuang, and Yiyang.
Chenzhou City.
"Get out! We don't sell the shop!"
Xu Yong was kicked out. During this period, he bought two rice shops. The blacksmith shop in front of him had been grinding for half a month, but there was no result.
"Then we have to find another way." Xu Yong's eyes turned.
In the evening, Yihong Courtyard.
Xu Yong drank with another young man. The young man opposite looked honest and was estimated to be thirty years old. He was obviously not used to this occasion, but the desire in his eyes was obvious.
"You haven't enjoyed this place before, right?" Xu Yong said with a smile.
"No money."
"It is said that after three years of apprenticeship and two years of service, you can become a master. You have worked for Lao Guo for seven or eight years, earning an apprentice's salary. Haven't you ever thought about going out on your own?"
"I don't have money, and my master won't allow me. I proposed it several times before, but he scolded me for being a traitor." Wang Zhong lowered his head, with resentment and resentment in his eyes.
"It seems that you are being used as a cheap apprentice." Xu Yong took out a gold bar and slapped it on the table. "Tomorrow you will leave the master's sect, and this little yellow croaker will be regarded as an investment in you."
Wang Zhong agreed without hesitation.
After that, Wang's Blacksmith opened.
With the support of Xu Yong, many junior brothers were poached, and coupled with low-price dumping, Guo's Blacksmith Shop quickly declined.
Xu Yong's conquest of the city in business attracted the attention of the shady forces in the city.
"Boss, this kid is stubborn and refuses to pay protection fees, but he also drove me out!"
A short man with a rat-like face reported to the scarred man sitting on the table.
"Hmph, if you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the wine for punishment. This Xu has been threatened to be killed by the Third Young Master Wu."
Speaking of the Wu family in Chenzhou, it is a household name.
The Wu family has ruled Chenzhou for more than 200 years and has always been the pacification envoy of Chenzhou. Its family power is deeply rooted like a big tree.
Yang Wu is one of the ants attached to this towering tree.
Although he controls hundreds of gangsters in the underground and keeps dozens of thugs, he is still not good enough to face the Wu family that controls the military, politics and finance.
Everyone thinks he is the master of the underground in Chenzhou, but in fact the Third Young Master is.
"Third Young Master? How did that kid offend the Third Young Master?"
"The shop that the Third Young Master liked was intercepted by him, and two other shops closed down due to competition. The Third Young Master vowed to kill this man." Yang Wu said, "Tomorrow night, the Third Young Master will gather with us and go to find trouble with Xu Yong again."
"Yes!"
The next day, at night.
The carriage stopped at the alley, where more than 20 people gathered. The leader, Yang Wu, covered his face and held a machete.
A nobleman got off the carriage. He was short, had a flat nose, and his eyes were fierce.
"Why are you wearing a mask? I'm killing people in Chenzhou!" Wu Xiong laughed cruelly.
"Yes, sir!"
The group went to Xu Yong's shop.
They burned the rice shop and beat the clerk half to death.
Yang Wu mentioned the clerk and said viciously, "Where is Xu Yong?"
"Mr. Xu... Xu Yong and his sister are in Wang's blacksmith shop..."
The clerk said with his dying breath.
"Let's go!"
That night, all the shops in Lizhuang were on fire.
Three hundred meters away was the royal blacksmith shop.
Xu Wang, the captain of the Lizhuang security team who was taking a nap, seemed to hear something. He went out to see what was going on and was scared to death on the spot.
He hurried inside to wake up Xu Yong.
"Sir, there is a group of people outside, and they seem to be coming for us."
Xu Yong seemed to think of someone, and said decisively: "Let's go!!"
He woke up his sister and others.
"Don't take anything, just climb over the wall and leave!!"
When Wu Xiong and his men arrived, the house was already empty.
"Burned, all burned!" Wu Xiong was furious.
"Sir, they can't go far, we still have time to chase them now!"
"They are there!!"
"Chase!"
Xu Yong and his five companions chased them from the city to the outside of the city.
Xu Wang carried Xu Ling'er on his back and ran with all his strength.
As long as they ran to Lizhuang, they would be safe.
The fire in the dark night attracted the attention of the guards of Lizhuang, who reported the situation to Xu Xuan and Li Hu.
"It seems to be Young Master Yong down the mountain..."
Li Hu looked at Xu Xuan and said, "It should be that he has offended the minions of the Wu family in the city. I will go to negotiate."
"No need, you take a good rest, I will go."
Xu Xuan went out with a longbow on his back.
As soon as he went out, his figure turned into a residual shadow like a cheetah and left.
Li Hu could not help but admire.
This boy's martial arts are getting better and better.
Wu Xiong and others are getting closer and closer.
"Haha, Xu Yong, look who I am? Today is your death anniversary!"
As soon as the voice fell.
Whoosh!
A dozen arrows were shot out from the bushes not far away, and the first three gangsters died on the spot.
"No! There is an ambush!" Yang Wu asked people to protect Wu Xiong.
The other party ambushed a group of archers.
When the people in the bushes came out, he almost jumped out of his eyes. There was only one person.
The bow and arrow in this person's hand was like a string of cannons, shooting arrows from a distance.
"Kill! He is the only one!"
Yang Wu and his men were so angry that they rushed forward without hesitation.
The ending is predictable.
Yang Wu died, and his men died.
The rest of the people dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender, only Wu Xiong was still holding on.
"Brother!" Xu Yong said excitedly.
"You go back first." Xu Xuan said without turning his head.
"Okay!" Xu Yong realized that staying here would only be a burden, so he led his men back.
After they walked away, Xu Xuan came to Wu Xiong.
"Raise your head!"
Everyone couldn't help but raise their heads, looking at this unusually young face, and they felt unspeakable in their hearts.
"Surrender, recognize me as your master, and I will spare your life!"
Xu Xuan said coldly.
"What a joke, I am from the Wu family of Chenzhou, with three thousand elite soldiers. If you kill me, none of you will survive!" Wu Xiong said stubbornly.
Xu Xuan took out a yellow talisman on the opposite side, and then, a scene that Wu Xiong would never forget happened.
