I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Chapter 40 The scent of cloud sleeves
This valley is not big, covering only about four or five acres. There is a gurgling stream in the valley, not many trees, but wild flowers everywhere.

The red fire bee chooses to build its nest in this place, probably because the wildflowers are the densest here.

The cliffs on the east side of the valley are covered with vines, and there are several pines and cypresses growing out from between the cracks in the rocks. The trunks and branches of the trees appear to be greener and more powerful than the trees growing on the flat ground.

The hive is between those pines and cypresses, about three feet above the ground.

Liu Qifeng and others have been guarding the entrance to the west of the valley for several hours, hiding under the cliffs on both sides of the entrance.

Firstly, it was to prevent outsiders from breaking into this place, and secondly, it was also to avoid disturbing the Red Fire Venomous Bees too early.

"Has the midnight hour arrived?" "How long will it take?" "Don't worry, Senior Brother Qifeng should know what's going on."

The Liu family were bored waiting, whispering to each other and talking in low voices from time to time.

"Hmph, those people from the Huang family asked us to come over as thugs with their noses in the sky, but they never thought that such a good thing would happen to us."

"That's right, if we stay in our own territory, we really won't encounter this red fire poisonous bee. I really want to see what their faces are like when they show off their results after the autumn hunt?"

Several people looked at each other with relieved expressions on their faces.

Liu Qifeng brought a total of nine people with him.

Huang Liuhe guessed that after Fenglei Martial Arts School and Fei Wang Martial Arts School joined forces, he immediately notified the people at Liu Family Martial Arts School and asked them to also regroup and divide everyone into five groups.

So there were ten people in each group from the Liu Family Martial Arts School.

Wang Tonghui thought that the Huang family was acting in a group of ten, but he actually inferred this from the changes in the Liu family.

What he didn't know was that five people from the Huang family had already died, and the remaining people were divided into five groups, with each group consisting of only nine people.

Originally, the Huang family and the Liu family were still allies, and it was not unusual for them to advance and retreat together during the autumn hunting.

However, Huang Liuhe directly sent people to summon the Liu family members from Tianqin Peak to the area of ​​Tunxiang and Feiwang Peak to carry out activities, which was somewhat of an order, which inevitably made the Liu family feel dissatisfied.

Liu Qifeng folded his hands in his big sleeves, sat cross-legged on one side and closed his eyes to meditate. He seemed to be as stable as a mountain, but when he heard the words of the junior disciples, the corners of his mouth curled up a little.

Obviously, he was quite indignant towards the Huang family's condescending attitude during the day.

If it had been two years ago, the disciples of the Liu family would most likely have directly refused Huang Liuhe's order and continued to stay on their own territory. At most, they would have looked out for each other when they met the disciples of the Huang family.

Unfortunately, the Liu family no longer has that confidence.

In the past, when they jointly attacked the Songhe Martial Arts School, the Liu Family Martial Arts School not only contributed in the autumn hunting, but was also the first to think of poaching several instructors from the Songhe Martial Arts School.

In order to make those instructors leave Songhe Martial Arts School, they secretly tried their best, using both open and covert means, coercion and inducement, and many underhanded methods.

For example, on one occasion, the Liu family bribed a direct disciple of a teacher to poison Su Hanshan's decoction.

Of course the poisoning was unsuccessful, but after this incident, the instructor could not help but be suspicious, wondering whether Su Chaodong would have any suspicion towards him in the future.

In addition, the decline of Songhe Martial Arts School was obvious, and it didn't take long for the instructor to be poached by the Liu family.

Regarding the methods used by the other coaches, that is absolutely unacceptable to outsiders.

These calculations of the Liu family have indeed brought great growth to their martial arts gym in all aspects from the momentum of the martial arts gym to actual profits in those years.

But it also allowed the people in their family to develop a arrogant and arrogant character.

In the first half of last year, the Liu Family Martial Arts School encountered a desperate employer who wanted to profit from chaos. They wanted to hire forty disciples from their martial arts school to protect the caravan's business route in Shanyang County.

Because the reward was so generous, the Liu family actually dared to take it.

In a land of long drought and in years of great calamity, it was normal for someone to target their caravan. Before and after, they didn't know how many times they encountered people who wanted to rob goods.

After all, the saying goes, "Man perishes for money, birds perish for food."

Grandpa Liu's biological son and grandson, as well as several instructors hired with huge sums of money, all died during that trip, and the strength of the martial arts school was severely damaged.

Last year in Autumn Hunting, although they were ranked fourth, their record was still much better than that of Songhe Martial Arts School, but compared to the first three martial arts schools, there was already a clear gap.

This year's autumn hunting, Liu Qifeng actually didn't have much confidence.

Unexpectedly, a blessing in disguise.

During the day, I was angry with the Huang family, and in the evening, I found the red fire poisonous bee on the territory where the Huang and Wang families met.

If this swarm of Red Fire Venomous Bees were obtained, the Liu family would most likely take the opportunity to curb their decline and regain their strength.

"Senior Brother Qifeng."

Someone came close to Liu Qifeng’s ear and said, “The bee swarms are starting to come out.”

Liu Qifeng opened his eyes and saw swarms of dark red light spots flying out of the poisonous bee hive.Red Fire Venomous Bees will enter the hive to rest after nightfall.

When the bee enters the nest, the queen falls asleep, and the bee swarm comes out again and patrols nearby to protect her.

Now that the bee swarm has left the nest, it means that the queen bee, who poses the greatest threat, has fallen asleep.

"it is good!"

Liu Qifeng stood up, took two steps, and then said, "Wait a little longer. It should be midnight now, and maybe the queen bee is not sleeping well yet. It will be safer to wait a little longer."

Even so, he could no longer calm down and close his eyes, so he simply stood there and stared in the direction of the hive.

Estimating that more than a quarter of an hour had passed, he took off the sachet from his waist, poured out some powder from it, and applied it to his two sleeves.

The Liu family is arty and their clothes are often scented, and sachets are a daily must-have.

But after entering the mountains, the mountain wind blew and they hunted wild beasts, and the fragrance on their bodies had basically been assimilated by the smell of the mountains.

Now he poured out the powder from the sachet and applied it directly, making the fragrance strong again.

"Ordinary red fire poisonous bees are also a big threat to you. You guard the entrance, and I will go and deal with this swarm first."

Liu Qifeng gave a few instructions and stepped towards the east. Although he did not jump, he took long strides. His feet were filled with internal energy. His sleeves were fluttering. In a few breaths, he was close to the east cliff.

He did not attack the poisonous bees directly, but kept a certain distance, then opened his arms and gently shook his sleeves to let the strong fragrance from the sleeves float up.

Four or five of the nine Liu family disciples who stayed behind thought they were too far away to see clearly, so they followed him for a distance without knowing it, basically reaching the middle of the valley.

The Red Fire Venomous Bees surrounding the beehive soon smelled a floral fragrance that was completely different from the wild flowers in the valley. It was both strong and sweet.

Their natural instinct to collect flowers and make honey makes them gradually fly downward.

These Red Fire Venomous Bees, even if they are not queens, are often more than two inches long, and their bodies are so tough that steel needles cannot penetrate them. They are very different from ordinary bees and wasps.

Moreover, their mouthparts, tail stingers, and wings are all poisonous, and their lethality cannot be underestimated.

But those twenty or thirty poisonous bees took the lead and flew in front of him.

Liu Qifeng was calm and composed, he just stopped shaking his arms and remained as quiet as a rock, without any sign of taking action.

His eyes were deep and deep, and he moved his eyes slightly, not only observing the poisonous bees flying just in front of his nose, but also paying attention to the large swarm of bees surrounding the hive.

After a while, it seemed that the twenty or thirty poisonous bees had found out the safety of this place. Finally, all the bees on the cliff flew towards Liu Qifeng's direction.

The buzzing sound, coupled with the natural light emitted by the red fire poisonous bees, was like hundreds of red-hot irons, vibrating down.

At this moment, Liu Qifeng's sleeves suddenly swelled and his arms danced.

The big sleeves were like clouds, circling up and down, and the fragrant powder on the sleeves was blown into the air, mixing with the red shadows of those red fire poisonous bees.

Liu Qifeng's steps were nimble. In the blink of an eye, he twisted and turned twice, then stopped suddenly, with his sleeves hanging down.

All the poisonous bees, whose flight trajectories were originally disrupted by Xiu Feng, fell to the ground following his movements.

It was as if the bees that were good at making honey had died of intoxication in the fragrance of that pair of sleeves.

However, if you look closely, you will find that all the poisonous wasps have been punctured with a hole, and after landing on the ground, sticky slurry is oozing out.

The Liu family's Cloud Sleeve Sword Technique is known as "the cloud sleeves are fragrant and the sword is invisible"!
When Liu Qifeng turned around, the pair of daggers in his sleeves had been thrust out more than [-] times, killing all the poisonous bees that were as tough as iron, and not a single sword failed.

The other disciples of the Liu family didn't even see him draw the sword.

"Red spirit paste!"

Liu Qifeng took a breath, looked up at the hive, and was about to jump to take it off when he suddenly heard several short screams of pain and the collision of weapons behind him.

He looked back and saw someone seemed to be fighting at the entrance to the valley.

The Liu family disciples who were closer to him, in the center of the valley, received heavy blows almost indiscriminately at the moment he turned around, and flew out to both sides involuntarily.

A figure in white passed between those people, and the strong air current caused the roots of surrounding flowers and plants to break and float into the air.

The moonlight shines like a beam in the valley.

Liu Qifeng's eyes reflected a face that he couldn't believe.

Su Hanshan looked like a smile, but his murderous intent was clear. He was approaching rapidly, with thousands of wild flowers rising behind him, floating in the sky.
