Evergreen Immortal.

The next morning.

A ray of sunlight shined on Li Rui's face through the window paper.

"Hmm"

His fingers shook slightly and his eyes slowly opened.

"What happened last night?"

Li Rui looked at the bright sky.

It's already three poles high in the sun.

"I slept for so long."

He shook his head.

I haven't slept for such a long time since I turned fifty. According to rough calculation, it was at least six hours.

He sat up from the bed, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

My mind that was a little groggy due to the wind and cold became clearer, the feeling of shortness of breath disappeared, and my body and mind felt relaxed.

"alright?"

In just one night, the cold was cured.

Li Rui frowned slightly.

"Something's wrong."

According to his previous assumptions, it would take at least three days to recover, but now only one day has passed.

There were no special medicines in ancient times, and the medicinal soup Wang Zhao cooked yesterday was not a magic medicine. How could it have such magical effects?

"It's a dream!"

Li Rui quickly found out the key to the problem.

Dreams cannot be pursued, and most of the content of last night's dream cannot be remembered clearly, but he can vaguely recall that he seemed to have listened to a sermon all night in a fairyland.

"Sleepwalker!"

He remembered the records in an ancient book.

Epiphanies come in many forms.

Some people have an epiphany between life and death, and their strength greatly increases. Some people have an epiphany while practicing. One day is a year, and falling into a dream is a form of epiphany.

As the saying goes, what you think about every day is what you dream about at night.

Only by reading books every day and improving his understanding can he enter this mysterious and mysterious state.

Listening to Taoism in the immortal world is a rare existence in enlightenment.

Known as the Sleepwalker by the world.

Plus that epiphany before.

I had two epiphanies in a row within a year.

Some people never get to see him once in his life, but he sees him twice a year. If word of this spreads out, it will make many geniuses jealous.

Li Rui closed his eyes and felt the changes carefully.

In the chaos-like darkness, a wisp of cyan air was lively and incompatible with the surrounding gray and black.

Eyes shot open.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

"Xuan Qing Qi!!"

Li Rui seemed unsure, so he closed his eyes suddenly and opened them again after about three breaths.

murmured:

"I actually realized Xuanqing Qi at the eighth level?!"

He compared the description of the Xuanqing Qi in the White Ape's Breathing with a Knife in his mind, and found that it was the same as the gossamer-like green Qi in his body now. However, according to the records in the White Ape's Breathing with a Knife, the Xuanqing Qi was clearly of the sixth grade. Exclusive above.

Simply outrageous.

Ecstasy surged.

What is Tianjiao?

The martial bones and understanding are outstanding, which is really extraordinary.

He actually developed a ray of Xuanqing Qi at the eighth level.

Li Rui glanced at the wooden table beside him from the corner of his eye, and then slapped it with his palm.

Bang!

The teapot on the wooden table exploded, and the broken porcelain pieces clattered to the ground.

Hitting objects from a distance.

Different from the previous sword energy, now Li Rui can use his energy to injure the enemy with just his palms. With the support of weapons, it will only be stronger.

His strength increased by more than 50% overnight.

"Very good."

Li Rui felt extremely happy.

The next moment.

The door was pushed open with a creak.

I saw Yang Yong and Wang Zhao rushing in with nervous expressions.

The two looked at the tea spilled on the table and the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.

Yang Yong quickly asked: "Old Li Tou, what's going on?"

Li Rui: "I wanted to drink tea, but I accidentally knocked it over."

He couldn't say that he smashed the teapot eight feet away with one air palm.

Don't forget, he is a sick old man now.

After hearing this, Wang Zhao blamed himself: "I was careless. I didn't realize that the master was awake and even had to pour tea by himself."

In contrast, Yang Yong is much calmer.

He looked at Li Rui suspiciously.

Li Rui's quilt was still the same as last night, and his shoes were far apart. It looked like he had never gotten out of bed.

But if I never got out of bed, how could this teapot be broken?

Yang Yong secretly shook his head:

"It's really mind-consuming."

Since Li Rui didn't say anything, he didn't bother to continue asking.

Wang Zhao brought another pot of warm tea, and Li Rui rinsed his mouth with the tea and washed his face with water before getting up.

When walking out of the room.

It was already noon.

The blazing sunlight makes it difficult to open one's eyes.

After Li Rui simply ate some food prepared by Wang Zhao, he went to Tianyi Hall next door.

Everyone from the Qinghe helm branch went out.

Tianyi Hall, which was originally deserted, now saw no one. Liang He went to the black market during the day, and Zhou Shulin was the only one squatting on the threshold, bored.

"Hall Master."

When Zhou Shulin saw Li Rui, he jumped up and stood at attention on the spot.

"Sit down, sit down."

Li Rui waved his hand, signaling Zhou Shulin to relax.

Zhou Shulin scratched his head.

He clearly remembered that his hall master was sick, but he didn't expect that he would go to work even though he was sick.

"You are so dedicated, no wonder you can become the hall master!"

If this idea were known to Li Rui, he would definitely roll his eyes.

Generally speaking, there is little correlation between engagement and promotion.

Of course, he won't point it out.

His subordinates thought so, and he, as a boss, was very pleased.

As Li Rui walked toward Tianyi Hall, he asked, "In the woods, have you heard anything lately?"

Zhou Shulin blinked his eyes: "I happened to run into Liu Tong this morning and invited him to have breakfast. Last night, our Tiandi League, the county government, and several gangs in the city surrounded the Ghost Sect in Xiaohegou."

"After fighting all night, I heard that most of the people in the Ghost Sect were killed. Some people escaped and are now being arrested."

Li Rui raised his eyebrows.

He patted Zhou Shulin's shoulder in appreciation: "Not bad, keep up the good work."

Compared with Liu Tong, who is also a relative, Zhou Shulin's relationship is actually stronger, but his roots are not good and he is not flexible enough.

He also gave some advice.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shulin is smart and listened to everything.

What's more commendable is that he put it into practice.

This is very good.

If you want to get along well in the Qinghe branch, martial arts is of course very important, but if martial arts are not available, the next best thing is information.

Making friends is often to obtain information.

Then make the most favorable judgment for yourself.

"Xiaohegou"

The successful encirclement and suppression last night was within Li Rui's expectations.

The county government, Huaqing Sect, Tiandi League, and Xuehu Gang were all dispatched. If such a large-scale battle cannot deal with the Ghost Sect, then I am afraid that the army can only be asked to take action.

Understand the situation.

Li Rui returned to his long-missed office.

Now that the black market has gradually stabilized, he has more time to stay in the branch.

It's not that I think Tianyi Hall is more important than the black market.

It's just that there are more masters in the branch, and I feel more secure.

Picking up a Taoist scripture that has been covered with dust, Li Rui began to read it with relish again.

Turning the book and practicing.

It's just like this every day.

"Fighting and killing, it's better to stay away from me, an old man."
