Father's love is like a mountain

Chapter 163 Temporary Allies

Just like literati like to make friends with literature, and when they get together, they have to dance with literature and ink, and recite poems to match each other.

When warriors meet each other, even if they don't know how to compete, it's naturally normal for them to discuss each other secretly and weigh each other.

Therefore, Xia Zhongzhong and the few people in the temporary alliance had separated their hands in a few days.

Although it is not a formal fight, it can roughly measure the strength of the opponent.

Xia Qizhong actually knows his own strength.

Although his immortal practice has reached the peak of Qi training and his physical fitness is strong, he has not had enough time to temper his spells; although he has also opened his pulse in martial arts, and the moves he has learned are also very exquisite, he does not have much time to polish and comprehend them. After all, he is too The wife is young.

Although the adoptive father had arranged for the masters who opened the veins near Linqiong Mansion to abuse them, suppress their arrogance, and prevent them from being proud.

But that was when they had just established the foundation of the immortal way, and when they were in the state of being strong and powerful in the martial way.

And after they practiced qi in the immortal way and opened their veins in the martial arts, they haven't fought against real masters yet.

So although Xia Zhongzhong knew his strength well, he didn't know how to position himself.

But after fighting with these five people, he understood.

In terms of one-on-one, none of these five people is his opponent.

Even if all five of them went together, he still had a certain degree of confidence to win them all.

And if he uses the talisman given by his adoptive father, and they gather together stupidly, he can easily kill them instantly.

But, on the other hand, if he was attacked by two or more of them, he would be very embarrassed and even risk falling due to lack of protective energy.

Xia Zhongzhi knew their strength, but they didn't know anything about Xia Zhongzhong's strength, Xia Zhongzhong hid it very well.

He is planning ahead, maybe he will turn against them soon, so he naturally wants to hide his strength now.

For Wei Jiang's doubts and contempt, Xia Qizhong did not explain.

Under the teaching of his adoptive father, he didn't pay much attention to face and the like.

How much is face worth?

Do not dispute the short and long of the moment.

Arguing with others, arguing fiercely, winning the quarrel is also losing.

At the critical moment, the one who takes decisive action and takes what you want is the winner.

In this way, this temporary alliance continued to wait. They rented a small courtyard in the county town and lived in seclusion.

On the surface, Xia Zhongzhong was joking and joking all day long, but at night, he was turned into a red wave with his arms around Wei Jiang.

In fact, he observes carefully every day, pays attention to the characteristics of everyone in this fragile alliance, and thinks about how to win as soon as possible if he really wants to do something.

A few days later, Tang Shilu called everyone together: "In the past few days, everyone has thought of a lot of methods, but after much deliberation, Han Xiaoyou's method may be the most reliable. If there is no other objection, we will prepare this way Let's do it."

Another senior Kaimai, named Deng Xiang, has a wide forehead, narrow chin, drooping eyebrows, and deep forehead lines. He looks like "always sad", "as if someone in the family just died", "or doesn't know what he owes" Who has paid millions of dollars” feeling.

Deng Xiang said with a sad face: "Now the outsiders are the Quicksand Sect, the Qinghu Sect and the Tongcheng Mountain Sword Sect. Xiao Qi, go talk to them and tell them that we have the entrance to the real ruins, and we can cooperate with them to explore and explore with them." Let's talk about distribution."

Zhang Ziqi is a newcomer, and has gained quite a bit of reputation in the world in recent years.

Someone expressed puzzlement: "Why are we talking about distribution? Aren't we going to find an opportunity to monopolize those hidden treasures?"

It can only be said that those with high martial arts skills do not necessarily have good brains.

Zhang Ziqi smiled and explained for Deng Xiang: "If we don't talk about the distribution, others will not be at ease with us, and they will be on guard everywhere. After discussing the distribution, it is to paralyze them and create opportunities for us to fish in troubled waters."

Zhang Ziqi is very confident about the task entrusted to him: "Don't worry, everyone, this matter is also urgent. I don't think it will take long, and a cooperation agreement will be reached soon."

"Then I wish you a smooth trip."

Zhang Ziqi came back at night, with a smile on his face, apparently in a good mood.

"It's all settled," he said after everyone gathered in the main hall, "No one is likely to be interested in what the distribution conditions are, so I'll just talk about the key points. Tomorrow morning, Senior Tang and I will bring a few more people to the Cooperate with them on the surface. But Senior Deng, Senior He, Brother Yang, Xiaoyou Han, you guys scattered with other people, each trying to find a way to enter the ruins."

"During the process of exploring the ruins, Senior Tang and I will definitely be closely watched or even monitored by them, but you can move freely. At that time, if you need to turn your back on you, you should cooperate with the outside. Of course, if you can not turn your back, follow the notes Records, get all those precious enough items without anyone noticing, it's better for us not to turn our faces."

Deng Xiang frowned: "Think of a way? It's not so easy to think about, I can't think of any way to get into the ruins, I'm not good at movement."

A senior Kaimai said that his physical skills are not good, just to tease you.

Even for a senior Kaimai who is not particularly good at physical skills, if he really goes all out, his movements will be difficult to see clearly if he is in the state of ordinary strength and acuity, and his shadow will not be able to be caught by those with strong viscera and bones.

Zhang Ziqi said with a smile: "Don't worry, senior Deng, there are many heroes from all walks of life gathered in Jiuji Mountain. Although the Liusha faction, Qinghu faction and Tongcheng Mountain Sword faction are in control of the situation, they dare not risk the world's displeasure. A large number of heroes are turned away. I guess, they may want to prevent other people from entering at first, but they will definitely not be able to stop them. When everyone makes a fuss, they will not be able to control them. For this kind of thing, it is not worth opening Killing ring, so, in the future, I guess they will definitely compromise and let go."

Tang Shilu twitched his beard: "Brother Zhang is right. Then assign tasks like this!"

Everyone has nothing to do, and Xia Zhong has no objections.

The next day, according to the plan, Tang Shilu took Zhang Ziqi to join the Qinghu Sect, Liusha Sect, and Tongcheng Mountain Sword Sect.

Some people pulled up a small team by themselves, and some became lone rangers.

There are already nearly a thousand people from the Jianghu who gathered in Jiuzuo Mountain, and their strengths are uneven.

Kaimai who surfaced had more than [-] people. It can be said that Kaimai from the nearby state capitals, as long as they had a little ambition, came.

And there are more than a hundred masters in the state of strength and strength.

Of course, just like in the population structure of a society, the nobles and the rich at the top of the pyramid are always a minority, and the common people and even the poor are the vast majority.

Among the thousands of rivers and lakes people, the most are those with strong bones and blood or even lower realms.

In normal times, these Jianghu people with low cultivation bases would not even dare to show their spirits and their waists would not be straight in front of the masters who opened the pulse.

In the arena, force is the most respected, so there is no such thing as cooking, and whoever has the biggest fist has the final say.

Even if he was wronged and his cultivation base was low, he could only knock out his front teeth and swallow blood.

But the Jianghu people here all come to compete for opportunities with a certain amount of determination and dreams of soaring to the sky.

Naturally, he would not swallow his anger when he was suppressed as usual.

As Zhang Ziqi expected, when the Liusha faction, Qinghu faction and Tongcheng Mountain Sword faction alliance found the entrance to the ruins under the leadership of Tang Shilu, the first thing they wanted to do was to "clear the place".

But other loose cultivators or lone ranger masters would not follow.

After comparing their strengths, the alliance of the three factions decisively chose to back down—not that they could not fight, but that there would be serious casualties, which would be unbearable.

As soon as this opening was opened, other people with lower cultivation bases knew that the alliance of the three factions did not have the determination to hold back an inch.

So the crowd started booing.

Under such a stalemate, the casual cultivators and the lone rangers discovered the sternness of the three factions alliance, and some of them boldly rushed in directly.

The alliance of the three factions did not dare to kill, but they just intercepted it hastily, and when they couldn't stop it, they gave up.

It's like when a big girl faces a man, she has to resist symbolically.

If you don't resist, you will be gossiped about.

But how effective resistance can be, in fact, everyone knows it well.

Xia Qizhong took Wei Jiang by the hand, and squeezed into the ruins with most of the people without showing any signs of the mountains.

The entrance of the ruins is in a relatively wide cave. After entering, they stepped on a corridor for four people to walk side by side. Come to the wide underground square.

The air quality inside is not bad, and the ventilation is better.

Xia Zhong looked east and west, looking for members of the temporary alliance, and also looking for various signs recorded in the notes, comparing the terrain and buildings here, and building a map in his mind.

Suddenly he felt that Wei Jiang's hand was a little stiff, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. For some reason, she was nervous.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked strangely.

"It's nothing," Wei Jiang said unnaturally, "I'm just a little guilty. You said that if someone finds out my identity, will I be mobbed and attacked?"

Xia Zhong laughed and said: "You think too much, although your reputation is bad, but now who has the time to talk to you."

He felt that Wei Jiang was lying.

But that's okay, who doesn't lie?He also told countless lies to Wei Jiang.

What he was interested in was, why did Wei Jiang lie?What did she see, so nervous?

He followed Wei Jiang's gaze just now, and found nothing unusual.

what!
Xia Qiqi's gaze swept half a circle, and then moved back.

The one wearing the hat... looked inexplicably familiar.

Moreover, although he couldn't feel the specific cultivation of the other party, his intuition was telling him, don't provoke this person!
Could it be that he is a hidden master?

~~~~~
Xia Yongchu walked among the crowd as if nothing had happened, playing the role of a lone ranger who prides himself on his skills.

Seven or eight hundred Jianghu people have already poured into this place, but it doesn't seem crowded, and this is only a small part of the ruins.The underground ruins are quite huge.

If only relying on Wu Fu's strength, it would be difficult to build it.

So yes, the construction of this place involved the participation of immortal monks.

Xia Yongchu was very sure of this, he didn't need to read the notes to know it, because he sensed that several formations were operating nearby, and there were at least two spirit veins above middle grade.

This is a big deal!
Xia Yongchu never believed it at this time, only the treasure of Zhong Chusheng, the "Sword of the South", was in this ruins.

Although he was a martial artist in the subtle realm, he probably didn't have enough financial resources and influence to build such a ruin.

To build such a grand building underground requires at least one powerful cultivating sect.

Even the strength of the Huaming faction is probably not enough.

Xia Yongchu guessed that there must be another mystery here!

It is a pity for Xia Yongchu that the time for him to raise these sons and daughters is too short.

Xia Qi and others have not followed him to learn the skills of cultivating immortals such as formations and alchemy.

When encountering formations, Xia Zhongzhi could only catch them blind.

And Xia Zhongzhong is the protagonist of this adventure. If there are any great secrets in this ruins, or rare treasures that are more precious than the skills of martial artists in the subtle realm, then Xia Zhongzhong is the most qualified , most likely to obtain.

However, if he doesn't know the formation, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the benefits he may obtain.

Especially - Xia Yongchu calmly glanced at several people.

Who would have thought that among the seven or eight hundred people from the Jianghu, there would be a few immortal monks mixed in!

Who said that immortal monks are extremely arrogant and usually do not associate with ordinary people.

These immortal cultivators were obviously in the same group, and they dressed up like ordinary Jianghu people.

Even though they didn't wear uniform school uniforms, Xia Yongchu reckoned that they were definitely not casual cultivators or small sects.

Because each of them has breath-holding spells, Xia Yongchu couldn't judge their cultivation.

It is estimated that their cultivation base will not be low, and there will be no fewer magic weapons. Even if they fight with them, they may take out a magic weapon, or a handful of powerful talismans, or even a life-saving weapon bestowed by the elders at any time. things.

The appearance of these immortal monks added many variables to this adventure.

Xia Yongchu wasn't sure that he would be able to deal with them. Immortal cultivators had many methods. As long as they were not overwhelmed by realms, even if they were strong or weak, it didn't mean that the strong would definitely win.

Xia Yongchu's challenge to Jing Dongpeng back then was the best example. In fact, judging from the strength on paper, Jing Dongpeng undoubtedly had the absolute upper hand.

So when he saw these immortal monks, Xia Yongchu felt very vigilant in his heart, feeling that he was about to encounter a great risk.

But if you think about it carefully, the adventures arranged by the system may have some twists and turns and trials, and you won't just throw the skills and treasures on the ground and let him pick them up.

Just like Xia Qixiong's adventure last time, several powerful enemies appeared at the end that Xia Qixiong couldn't deal with.

But the difficulty should not be too outrageous. Although it is a strong enemy, Xia Yongchu should be able to handle it if he tries his best.

Xia Yongchu couldn't help but speculate that if it was exchanged for "Legend" and "Myth" level random events, maybe he could get more high-end and rare treasures, but he would also face stronger enemies!

It is even possible for him, a little gangsha monk, to face Jindan directly.
