Chapter 23: Bull Demon’s Sudden Enlightenment, Spirit Infant’s Divinity
Puff, puff, puff! Densely packed, thin as cow hair, yet extremely sharp, wooden needles suddenly rained down like rain, covering the sky and the earth! Zhao Chuanxiong's long sword was stained with blood, and he swung it up suddenly. Seeing this, his hair stood on end, his pupils shrank, and he had to use his long sword to roll up a gust of wind to block the densely packed hidden weapon attack!
But there were too many of them, and the blood lotus exploded, and the dense numb needles washed away like a rainstorm, and finally pierced into his body!
A blood mist rose up, and Zhao Chuanxiong's leaping body fell heavily back into the snow-covered yard. Fine beads of blood flowed out of his pores, instantly dyeing a large area of the white snow red.
"ah!"
Zhao Chuanxiong roared in a low voice, his hair and beard stood up, and he quickly circulated his internal energy to resist the blood flowing in his meridians, his face red with anger! "How insidious, how vicious! What a vicious bull demon!"
Zhao Chuanxiong kept shouting angrily.
The Bagua stick warrior wearing a girl's mask jumped onto the wall, but due to the delay, the Bull Demon was nowhere to be seen.
He had disappeared in the misty wind and snow.
Looking back, the Bagua Stick warrior could not help but shiver when he saw the dense wooden needles that had pierced holes in the snow.
"Protect me for a moment. This Bull Demon is really vicious. The wooden needles are extremely thin. Even my skin membrane at the Tempered Body Realm cannot block them. They have penetrated into my body and are now flowing along my meridians. They are trying to pierce my heart. I have to use my internal energy to protect myself and force out these wooden needles!"
Zhao Chuanxiong gasped for breath, immediately sat cross-legged in the snow, said something to the Bagua stick warrior, and began to circulate his internal energy seriously.
Scorching heat spread from every inch of his skin.
After about a cup of tea, Zhao Chuanxiong trembled violently, opened his mouth wide, and spat out a large mouthful of blood with a "puff".
The blood clots were filled with tiny red-stained wooden needles.
"how?"
The warrior carrying the Bagua stick looked at Zhao Chuanxiong and asked in a deep voice.
"It's okay, it's just that my meridians were injured. I need to recuperate for a while. This Bull Demon... is really vicious."
Zhao Chuanxiong looked unhappy. He had set a trap and wanted to capture and kill the Bull Demon.
But I never expected that I would suffer a great loss.
"At least, he didn't poison the wooden needle..." The Bagua Stick warrior glanced at it and smiled.
The corner of Zhao Chuanxiong's mouth twitched, and he was too lazy to respond, but he was secretly glad in his heart.
This Bull Demon is vicious but not vicious enough...
"He is wearing a Bull Demon mask, has a burly and tall body, and has the ability to temper bones... Such a conspicuous figure cannot be hidden in the outer city."
Zhao Chuanxiong exhaled: "Could it be that he is from the inner city?"
"That's probably true. The wealthy families in the inner city have a superior heritage, and the martial arts they practice are extremely advanced. They also eat nutritious food, have strong blood and energy, and are sturdy. Look at the Yang family, each of them is as strong as an ox. Almost every wealthy family has martial artists with such stamina."
"Moreover, the Bull Demon's strength is stronger than that of a martial artist who has just completed the Bone Tempering Stage. I think the martial arts he has practiced are very good, and he must be from a wealthy family."
"And those wooden needles... probably have something to do with the woodcarvers under the command of those aristocratic families. Such skills may be the work of a woodcarving master."
The warrior holding the Bagua stick nodded and said.
"The Master went to the inner city and dealt with the aristocratic families in the inner city, and took away a lot of their interests... These aristocratic families are not vegetarians, so it is normal for them to fight back."
"The Yang family? The Xu family, the An family... or the Si family?" Zhao Chuanxiong slowly stood up and slowly picked out wooden needles as thin as cow hair from the snow.
His rough fingers rolled over the wooden needle, and there was an extremely strong murderous intent in his eyes.
"No matter what, this Bull Demon... must be killed sooner or later!"
…
…
Li Che, wearing a bamboo hat and a padded coat, returned to the rented courtyard.
His body suddenly returned to its normal shape like a deflated balloon.
"Escaping from the hands of two bone-hardening warriors... is not bad, but I have used up all my trump cards."
"The three major mechanisms, the sleeve crossbow, the thousand spider silk and the Guanyin Blood Lotus, are all displayed... Tsk, what a pity, my internal energy is not yet complete, otherwise with the powerful internal energy, the explosion of the Guanyin Blood Lotus can be doubled, and Zhao Chuanxiong will be seriously injured if he doesn't die."
"Now, he can only suffer minor injuries that are not serious."
"Hmm...if we add some poison to the wooden needles, and form the Guanyin Blood Lotus, and insert it into the meridians, the poison will explode, and the lethality will double..."
Li Che exhaled, his eyes lit up, and he clashed his fists and palms together, feeling a sense of sudden enlightenment.
It was a mistake, otherwise Zhao Chuanxiong would have been killed this time.
"Not counting the Bagua stick warrior, in a one-on-one fight, even if I activate the [Dragon Elephant King Kong], I am no match for Zhao Chuanxiong. Zhao Chuanxiong's internal energy has reached the third level, which is higher than mine, and he has also cultivated martial arts..."
Li Che reviewed the brief encounter he had just had with Zhao Chuanxiong.
If he didn't rely on the magic mechanism, he would surely be defeated and suffer a great loss after a long battle.
"Martial arts... I need to get some martial arts. I have the Dao Fruit of [Dragon Elephant Vajra], and I can practice martial arts very quickly. I will definitely be able to learn horizontal martial arts even faster, and maybe there will be additional gains." Li Che had an idea in his mind.
"Will the second shopkeeper teach me martial arts? Well, even if he does, it's very Xu family style... It seems I have to look for it myself, or go to Old Chen to find it."
Li Che stretched, and his bones crackled.
This battle allowed him to estimate Zhao Chuanxiong's strength and he became more confident in killing Zhao Chuanxiong.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
He took off his clothes and straightened his attire.
Li Che went out leisurely and went to the braised meat shop in the west of the city to cut a pound of braised beef and half a pound of pig ears. He also poured a jar of old yellow rice wine and bought a box of osmanthus cake before strolling back to Xu's Woodcarving Shop.
“Daddy!”
As soon as she pushed open the door of the yard, Xixi stepped on the snow, her nose red from the cold, and staggered towards Li Che.
Li Che felt warm at heart when he heard this. He put down the braised meat and wine in his hands and picked up the chubby Xixi.
The little girl was delicate and pretty, with adorable red lips. As Li Che picked her up, she put her arms around his neck.
"Daddy...hug me."
The little girl is very smart. Although she is only one year old, she has already shown her uniqueness.
Now he can walk smoothly without even a walker.
Old Chen was sitting under the eaves, happily drinking a glass of wine. Seeing how close Li Che and Xixi were, he couldn't help but sneer, "This little stinky Xixi is incredible. She seemed to hear your footsteps coming back from a long distance away..."
"As expected of a spirit baby."
Zhang Ya walked out of the house and saw the things Li Che had placed on the ground, so she hurried over to pick them up and brought them into the house.
"Husband, there is osmanthus cake again today. Isn't this too luxurious?" Zhang Ya smiled sweetly. Since moving to Xuji, her life has really been getting better and better, and she has become more hopeful.
Li Che smiled and said, "If my wife wants to eat it, it's okay to eat it every day."
Their family can really afford it now.
Li Che's skills made the wood carvings extremely profitable. Basically, he could make at least fifty taels for each wood carving. It could be said that he had no worries about food and clothing.
Zhang Ya went into the house carrying her things.
Li Che held Xixi in his arms and sat next to Lao Chen with some old yellow wine.
"Old Chen, what do you think of this spirit baby?"
Li Che asked.
The Lingying Sect determined that Xixi was a Lingying... Li Che really had no idea what this Lingying said.
Old Chen put away the gourd and motioned to Li Che to pour the wine. Only after Li Che poured a full cup did Old Chen smile.
Take a sip of old yellow wine.
Old Chen became serious and looked at Xixi with a hint of pity in his eyes.
"Ache, do you know the Divine Law?"
"The so-called spiritual infant... is born with divinity, and is a top-notch seedling for practicing the divine law!"
