Chapter Eighteen: Serpent God
Ning Xiu took Lu Jingzhi to the reception location.
Seeing Lu Jingzhi, Wang Yu and his friends were happy and hurriedly met.
"The Lord!"
"That's great, helm leader, are you okay?"
Wang Yu and his friends came up to ask about their well-being.
"Let's go back first." Lu Jingzhi said.
Several people returned to their hiding place, Ning Xiu made some trouble and restored his original face, and Lu Jingzhi was surprised when he saw the original appearance.
He had guessed that the person who saved him was not Li Qingzhi.
But he was so young that he was extremely surprised.
"I am so young and promising. I'm going to Lu Jingzhi, thank you for your kindness in saving you." Lu Jingzhi half-kneeled in front of Ning Xiu.
"You don't have to be polite to the Lord Lu."
Ning Xiu helped the other party up, "Lord Lu must have suffered a lot in the dungeon these days, so please take care of yourself."
"Now, Lord Lu has been rescued. I believe Liu Qingyi and others will not give up. They will search the city. We have to leave Jinfeng City as soon as possible." Zhang Qing reminded.
"It's not difficult to leave, just ask Brother Ning to make a few more masks."
Li Yunpeng smiled beside him.
Ning Xiu nodded, "This is nothing wrong."
"By the way, Wang Yu, the treasure key of the Golden Wind Thief, you have it with you." At this time, Lu Jingzhi looked at Wang Yu and asked.
Wang Yu took out the key and said, "It's here."
"good."
Lu Jingzhi's eyes lit up, "Since that's the case, we will go directly to get the treasure after we leave the city and then take it back to the headquarter."
"Well, just as the helm leader said."
"No further ado, leave tomorrow."
"Master Lu, isn't your injury important?" Ning Xiu said. When he went to save the other party, he saw that the other party was covered in wounds.
"You can just take a rest on the road." Lu Jingzhi said.
The next day.
Ning Xiu made masks for everyone, put them on, and then walked towards the city gate. At the city gate, there were disciples from the Fire Sect patrol.
But after disguising, Ning Xiu and his friends left the city easily.
This made him feel a little incongruous.
“It went very smoothly.”
"Is it an illusion? Although there were a little twists and turns between rescuing Lu Jingzhi to leaving the city, it was still very smooth."
Ning Xiu was thinking secretly.
When Lu Jingzhi escaped, even if the people from the Liehuo Sect did not immediately block the city and were prohibited from entering and leaving, the disciples who guarded the city should have increased a little.
But when he left the city, Ning Xiu clearly noticed that there were only two or three disciples guarding the city. They stood at the city gate and patrolled the people. They seemed serious and responsible, but in fact they were very loose. They did not investigate them very strictly when they met some merchants who were picking up goods.
After leaving the city, Lu Jingzhi took everyone to look for the treasure.
It is located in a mountain range dozens of miles away from Jinfeng City.
In order to take care of the injured Lu Jingzhi, Ning Xiu and his men recovered the carriage that had been settled before entering the city and hired another one.
The carriage was bumpy, afraid of affecting Lu Jingzhi's injuries, so everyone dared not rush to the road.
It took dozens of miles to walk for nearly a day and a night, and the next night, I came to a town outside the mountains.
Lu Jingzhi suggested taking a break here, "It's getting late and the road conditions in the mountains are complicated. We'd better wait for dawn before going in."
"good."
Wang Yu and others had no objection.
night.
Ning Xiu sat cross-legged and took out a handful of wolfberry from his arms and ate it.
A huge heat flowed through his body.
He immediately used the Nine Yang Divine Power to refine medicine and enhance true qi.
His cultivation level is still at the sixth level, but he has reached its peak, and he is only one layer of window paper away from the fifth level. However, as his cultivation level improves, he feels that wolfberry has become weaker and weaker, and his body seems to gradually develop resistance.
This was not too unexpected to him.
In addition, as his cultivation level improves, the power of the Nine Yang Divine Art gradually appears, just like before he fought with Liu Qingyi. The other party was a fourth-grade warrior, but he could face him head-on for more than a dozen moves.
Although this is because I am extremely familiar with Sui Fengbu, the purest and most righteous and strong true qi of the Nine Yang Divine Art is also an indispensable contribution.
the next day.
It was just dawn, and after a night of practice, Ning Jing got up and washed up.
When I opened the door, I happened to see Lu Jingzhi who had just returned to the inn. I said curiously: "Master Lu got up so early, has his injury healed?"
Lu Jingzhi smiled and said, "I went out to inquire about some information about the mountains. As for my injuries, although I have not fully recovered, as long as I do not use force, there will be no big problem and will not affect today's actions."
"Is that so good?"
Ning Xiu looked at Lu Jingyi in surprise.
How long has it been since the other party's injuries been healed so hard that they could walk around at will? Is it fake that I saw the scarred appearance before?
Ning Xiu kept a secret.
Soon, Zhang Qing, Li Yunpeng and others also got up.
A few people took care of it and then went to the mountains.
Along the way, Li Yunpeng seemed very excited, "I heard that before Jinfeng City surrendered to the Xuanming Sect, the Jinfeng Thieves used their force to commit crimes in Jinfeng City and robbed a lot of wealth. There are rumors that the wealth he accumulated was even comparable to the expenses of a second- and third-rate sect for more than ten years."
In this world, the martial arts sect composed of warriors and cultivates martial arts has absolute dominance, but even the strongest martial arts sects still have to make a living.
Every martial arts sect has its own source of wealth.
Restaurants, inns, brothels, selling tea, refining elixirs, enclosing land...
Behind many industries, there are more or less shadows of martial arts sects.
A second- and third-rate martial arts sect spends tens of thousands of taels of silver every year, and the others are added up to at least one hundred thousand taels. If the rumors are true, the treasure of the Golden Wind Thief will be at least one million taels...
Ning Xiu roughly estimated the prices in this world.
A steamed bun costs one cent.
One tael of silver is equal to one thousand ci.
One million taels of silver equals one billion?!
In the previous life, there were ten small goals.
Ning Xiu swallowed his saliva, his eyes were about to be exhausted. Although he was not greedy for money, who in this world could not love money?
He is naturally no exception.
"By the way, Master Lu, you said you went to inquire about the news in the mountains today. I wonder what you have gained?" Ning Xiu looked at Lu Jingzhi and asked.
Lu Jingzhidao: "I was about to tell you about this. The mountain is called Heifeng Mountain. There are many giant pythons and poisonous snakes in the mountains. It is said that there is also an existence called the snake god by the local people. When traveling, hundreds of beasts crawled, and many passers-by had already died under the fangs of the snake god. Let's be careful."
"What kind of snake god, if I take this sword, I will die!" A man next to Wang Yu grinned with a nine-ring sword.
Others call it a sledge knife, and one hand knife is extremely powerful. With one knife, you can easily cut a cow into half, just like cutting tofu.
The worst cultivation level on the field is the seventh grade, and there are even fifth grade masters like Wang Yu and Zhang Qing. They do not take the snake god seriously.
Several people continued to move forward.
I did encounter some big snakes along the way. For ordinary people, these snakes are indeed difficult to deal with. Once they are entangled, they will basically die.
But it was no threat to Ning Xiu and others.
The man who was cutting the mountain knife was the most happy. He slashed out with one knife and cut a python with an adult's thigh in half. The whole process was extremely easy.
"Ha, it's better not to come out of the snake god, otherwise I will slash it with one knife. Please try the taste of this snake god." The big man looked at everyone with a smile.
But they found that everyone suddenly looked behind him, and their expressions gradually became solemn. Several people were swallowing saliva, their eyes were filled with horror.
"What's wrong with you?"
The big man was stunned.
Then, he noticed a rustling sound from behind him, and a shadow enveloped him. He turned around and looked, and was immediately shocked.
Giant Python!
A black python he had never seen before was behind him. It was twenty or thirty feet tall, four or five adults combined, with dark grayish-white patterns on the black scales, and a pair of dark yellow snake eyes that were cold.
