Nine idlers

Chapter 87 Human Heart

At the same time as the small western-style building in the Japanese Concession collapsed, in the courtyard of the dark alley, the statue that Xu Changqing lived with the dead bamboo suddenly shattered, and at the same time a pure demonic energy rushed out of the statue, turning into a one-horned ghost, He rushed towards Xu Changqing.However, Xu Changqing had been prepared for a long time. At the moment when the statue shattered, he had already sacrificed the World-Walking Spirit Orb. When the ghost rushed over, Jiuliu Dao simulated a white lotus Buddha element, poured it into the World-Walking Spirit Orb, and turned it into a flower. The Taiji White Lotus enveloped the Li Gui, and with the Li Gui's impact, it rolled twice in the air, and landed firmly next to Luo Yun.

"Receive!" After landing, Xu Changqing easily raised his hand and pulled towards the void of the Tai Chi white lotus that enveloped the evil spirit, and saw pieces of lotus leaves transformed from white lotus Buddha elements crushing the evil spirit like a sharp-edged reamer, turning it into a A puff of fresh air was released, scattered between the heaven and the earth, while the Shidu Lingzhu returned to its original source and was absorbed into Xu Changqing's body.

"Peking is in such a fierce turmoil, and the Xuangang Heavenly Demon even sent the Four Demon Kings to Tianjin. Does he want to have a fight in Tianjin now?" Xu Changqing learned about the opponent's strength in Tianjin through this fight, and his expression was pale. 'A little dignified.

Although in terms of the individual strength of the Four Demon Lords, Xu Changqing is fully capable of capturing them, but if the Four Demon Lords are together, even with Huang Quanban in his hand, he has no certainty that he can defeat them.At that time, the Four Demon Lords relied on a set of thaumaturgy to escape calmly in front of nearly ten authentic masters of the Immortal Buddha. Those authentic masters of the Immortal Buddha also had Yan Feng, and each of them was not weaker than Xu Changqing.

At this time, Luo Yun, who was on the side, seemed to have calmed down when she saw the situation. The strange scenes just now made her understand that the person in front of her must be a person with sexual power, and a burst of excitement suddenly arose in her heart.She wanted to stand up, but her legs were weak. She was not careful and fell to the ground, but she didn't groan, she knelt down in front of Xu Changqing, kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "Please help the immortal! Please help the immortal!" Help!"

Luo Yun's voice woke up Xu Changqing from his contemplation, looked down at her, gently lifted her up with his hands, and then injected a burst of real energy to restore her body to normal, then said: "This dark alley prostitution There is no selfish 'prostitute', all the ladies should come and go as they please, is it possible that the old bustard here is breaking the rules and 'force' you to sign a contract of prostitution?"

"No, no! The bustard here treats me very well, and the little girl knows her status is low, so she doesn't dare to bother the fairy elder. The little girl is begging for my younger brother." Luo Yun felt that there was something in Xu Changqing's tone, and said bluntly : "My old father had a son in his later years, but he was sick since childhood, and his health has been bad. He has seen a lot of prescriptions and folk remedies, but he didn't get better at all. The old father died a few years ago because of his impatient younger brother, and the old mother also died. Because of this heart disease, I am depressed and unhappy, and I hope that the elders will take pity on me, and my young brother will be able to die."

After speaking, he immediately knelt down in front of Xu Changqing and kowtowed again and again.

"Get up now. You said that your status is low, and I am about the same as you. I am also a low-ranking person, and my status will not be higher than yours!" Xu Changqing sighed, helped him up again, and said: "You and I It can be considered predestined relationship, and seeing that you love your younger brother so much, it won’t make sense if you don’t help, so tell me your younger brother’s birth date, and I’ll calculate his innate destiny first, then talk about it?”

"Thank you, Immortal! Thank you, Immortal!" As soon as Luo Yun heard that Xu Changqing was willing to help, he quickly saluted and thanked him, and proficiently said his younger brother's birth date. It seems that he must have asked many people.

Xu Changqing calculated casually, and said: "You must have asked many fortune tellers, right? You should have heard that your younger brother's life is short of wood, and he lives in the middle palace with his life, which belongs to fire and fire. If there is no wood to burn, we have to burn our lives."

"Yes, yes!" Luo Yun nodded again and again, and said: "Indeed, many life masters have said this, and our family also followed what they said, arranging household utensils and changing the feng shui of the mansion, but it was useless. "

"A charlatan is a warlock! He can be tricked and deceived, and he can do anything!" Xu Changqing sneered disdainfully, "Your brother's lack of wood in his life can be supplemented by changing the feng shui of the mansion." As he spoke, he raised his hand and turned it around The five-element dao technique arouses the energy of the five-element wood spirit in the four surrounding areas and gathers it in the palm of your hand. The spiritual energy gradually changes from empty to real, and turns into a green transparent bead. Then he handed the bead to Luo Yun and said, "This is Transformed by the energy of the wood spirit of the five elements, you put it on your brother's chest for an hour every day, when will this bead disappear, and when will your brother recover from his illness?"

Luo Yun quickly took the beads, carefully put them in the purse next to him, and was about to thank him, but Xu Changqing suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Luo Yun's forehead, and said "clumsy!" in a deep voice.Then Luo Yun felt that there seemed to be something more in her mind, which seemed to be a set of boxing techniques and a set of internal breathing techniques. She involuntarily closed her eyes and followed the images and words in her mind. Things are working out.When she fully memorized the set of things that appeared in her mind, she opened her eyes and felt her body relaxed like never before, and the sky began to turn pale. It seemed that she had practiced all night.What made her rush to the place was that Xu Changqing was nowhere to be seen at the moment, and he didn't leave his name, only some words spelled out of bamboo leaves were left on the ground.

Xu Changqing wrote on it: I received two worships from you, and passed on two things to you, one is the wood spirit beads, and the other is the ancient guiding health-preserving boxing you just practiced.Although this boxing method is not great, it can strengthen the body, and you must have felt it.In this way, the opportunity for the two of us is over, and we owe nothing to each other, and you don't need to worry about it. In addition, you can't speak to others about what happened last night, or you will bear the consequences.

Just after Luo Yun read the entire message, a gust of wind suddenly blew up out of thin air, sweeping away all the leaves on the ground and rolling them into the corner.Luo Yun was immediately surprised by this vision, and quickly knelt down at the place where the writing was left, kowtowed three times respectfully, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would find a chance to repay Xu Changqing's kindness.

The night before yesterday, Xu Changqing saw that Luo Yun had entered the state of self-enlightenment so quickly, and couldn't help being a little surprised by his understanding, and then he returned to his normal color, using the five elements to attract bamboo leaves, and left a paragraph on the ground After that, he used the ghostly spirit to walk away from the small courtyard quickly from the roof.After passing through the Japanese-French Concession, Xu Changqing entered the British Concession. Although he was speeding in such a shocking way in front of the public, he was so fast that even if someone casually looked up, he could not catch him. A trace of him.

In a relatively hidden alley, Xu Changqing jumped from the roof and stepped on the ground lightly like a feather without a sound.In the alley, he tidied up his clothes, and after seeing that there was nothing missing or inappropriate, he walked out of the alley and walked on the street like an ordinary person.

The streets of the British Concession are completely different from the streets of Tianjin just now. Without the hustle and bustle of the world and the filth of the market, it looks extraordinarily quiet. Various flowers are planted on both sides of the street, and there are very Western-style lamps at intervals on the road. Although the modernized street lamps are a bit dim, walking under the lamps has a special atmosphere.All the buildings in the British Concession were built by the British by their own domestic architects. They are completely British, allowing the Chinese to walk on this street, feel the exotic atmosphere, and at the same time feel a kind of inexplicable sadness. humiliation.In particular, the words that Chinese and dogs are not allowed to enter some public gardens and the doors of the clubs inside the concession made people feel an anger that wanted to tear everything apart from the bottom of their hearts.

Although Xu Changqing is a cultivator, he has not forgotten his own blood. When he saw these signs, he felt a kind of helplessness and powerlessness besides being angry.It is not difficult to kill all the people in the entire British Concession with his ability, but what happens after killing these people?Leave by yourself, let the innocent common people bear the consequences, or bear the consequences yourself, and die under the siege of foreign artillery warships like the 38 heroes of the Guan family.Xu Changqing is like many people, even more selfish than most people, otherwise he would not be able to practice the golden elixir path that only selfish people would practice. Before changing this situation, he will not rush to get involved in the grievances and grievances of the secular world.

From the alley where Xu Changqing came out to the Victoria Garden, a total of seven British Indian policemen came to ask Xu Changqing for his identity documents, but each policeman was overwhelmed by Xu Changqing's proficient British English. up.There are many rich Chinese businessmen living in the British Concession, their identities are either rich or expensive, not only Indian patrolmen like them can’t be provoked, even pure British patrolmen dare not offend these wealthy businessmen rashly, so when Xu Changqing opened his mouth, these All the Indian patrol officers respectfully told Xu Changqing the way to Wansheng Commercial Bank, and then watched him leave.

Like the offices of other chambers of commerce, Wansheng Commercial Bank is a three-story commercial and residential building, with the commercial office in the front and a villa with a small garden in the back.Xu Changqing stood at the entrance of the firm and did not go in immediately. Instead, he turned around and walked to the bushes outside the Victoria Garden. Facing the dark bushes, a Chinese man in a suit sat on a horizontal chair and said, "You are from Xiajiuliu. Which branch of disciple?"

The person on the chair didn't answer at first, but when he felt that Xu Changqing's eyes were getting colder and the surrounding atmosphere seemed to freeze, he quickly got up, turned around and saluted Xu Changqing: "The little one is Zhaocaitang Jubaojin Don't know who is the senior who is the disciple of fourth master Qian Qianqian?"

"Could it be that your master sent you to monitor Wansheng Commercial Bank, because no one told you?" Xu Changqing looked at the man coldly and said.

Beads of sweat immediately appeared on the man's forehead, he swallowed dryly, and hurriedly bowed to Xu Changqing with the big gift of the low-level sect, and said: "The little one just obeys orders, and I hope the senior will forgive me!"

Xu Changqing looked at him coldly, and said: "Go back and tell your master, and by the way, let him tell Hu Yueniang that since I, Xu Changqing, said I would go to Peiping, I will definitely go. Get rid of her first! To avoid having to worry about her back when she gets it."

"The little one must bring the words!" The man nodded quickly.

Xu Changqing nodded, turned around to leave, but suddenly stopped, turned to the man and asked: "Let me ask you, has Hero Yan Fengyan arrived yet?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and immediately said truthfully: "Yan Feng, Hero Yan arrived at noon yesterday, and a female Bodhisattva came with him, and some masters from three mountains and five mountains that he invited by the old man also arrived together .Last night, I stayed in the Tianjin General Altar for one night, and I insisted on leaving this morning and went to Peiping."

"Insist on leaving? Hmph!" Xu Changqing snorted coldly, and said, "I'm afraid it was your plan to 'force' them to enter the capital ahead of time to take the lead for you. It's really a good plan!"

After finishing speaking, he ignored that person, turned around and walked into the main entrance of Wansheng Commercial Bank, and knocked on the door.After the door opened, an old man who rushed out from Chen's house came out, seeing Xu Changqing's surprise on his face, he immediately welcomed him in.

"Mr. Xu, are you finally here?" After seeing Xu Changqing, the old man who rushed out from Chen's house hurriedly welcomed him into the house, led him to the back room, and said, "The elders of Louguan Dao and some The elders who came with them have been waiting for you for several days!"

"The Immortal Elder of Lou Guan Dao?" Xu Changqing was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What is the Immortal Elder of Lou Guan Dao?"

"It's the old man's brother!" Seeing that Xu Changqing was puzzled, the old man said, "When they came, they said they wanted to go to Peiping with you."

"Oh! It turned out to be that one." Xu Changqing remembered the elder of the Louguan Dao Outer Hall in the Chen family who had attained Taoism through martial arts, and immediately showed a look of surprise, and then nodded, understanding how it happened Zi Shi, so he asked again: "Uncle Chen, has Elder Xiong come over?"

The old man shook his head and said, "The old man wants to sit in his hometown, how could he come here?"

"I think so." Xu Changqing nodded, then thought of the Huang family brothers and sisters, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, is there a pair of little brothers and sisters coming here these days, Uncle Chen, who say they are my disciples?"

The old man stood still, thought for a while and shook his head: "No! I have been in the business all the time, and I have never seen such a pair of little brothers and sisters." After speaking, he asked Xu Changqing in surprise and joy: "Mr. Is it a disciple? It's really a happy event!"

Now Xu Changqing was not in the slightest happy mood. When the old man said that the Huang brothers and sisters hadn't come, his heart sank. Then he frowned, closed his eyes slightly, and used numbers to deduce the current location of the brothers and sisters.However, because the Xuangang Heavenly Demon deliberately disturbed the luck in the north, Xu Changqing had no way to deduce the exact location of the brothers and sisters. He could only know that they were in the northwest of the capital, and they were safe and well, with food and shelter, and no harm. bitter.

"Mr. Xu, are you okay?" Seeing Xu Changqing's gloomy face, the old man also felt that something was wrong and asked quickly.

Xu Changqing shook his head and said, "It's okay! Don't be nervous!" As he spoke, he thought to himself that since he was fine, he would wait for the matter in Peiping to settle before looking for them, so he put aside the matter of the Huang family brothers and sisters, and said: " Lead the way ahead! Uncle Chen!"
