Chapter 27: Steady and Timid, the Bullhead of Hell
Li Che never thought of letting Lei Chunlan go. It was a rare opportunity for him to meet her, and he would feel uneasy if he didn't beat her to death.
Twisting the neck, the muscles in the back tense and creak.
Li Che opened nine of Xu's nine tendons. Now his cultivation has reached perfection in opening the tendons, and he is only one step away from tempering the bones.
In a month, Li Che's transformation was huge. Now, he activated the Vajra Transformation of [Dragon Elephant Dao Fruit], and was absolutely sure to kill Zhao Chuanxiong and his accomplice who played with the Bagua stick! He had planned to find Zhao Chuanxiong after this matter was over and kill this threat.
But I never thought that during my trip to the inner city... I would meet Lei Chunlan.
Hiding in the inner city, it is no wonder that Li Che has been trying to find Lei Chunlan in disguise for some time but to no avail.
He shook his sleeves, and the hidden crossbow and thousand spider silk were ready. The eyes under the mask flashed with coldness and murderous intent.
With a stomping of his footsteps, his body suddenly rushed out of the alley.
…
…
The curtains fluttered gently.
It rises and falls, as if moving with a person's breathing.
Xu Beihu sat on a chair, the water in the stove was boiling, the heat was surging, and the gurgling sound was endless. He was making tea by himself, and the rich aroma was everywhere.
Si Mubai was standing in front of the "Nine-Headed Guanyin Weeping and Suppressing Ghosts" carved by Li Che. At this moment, the original appearance of the wooden sculpture was no longer recognizable, as if it had been eroded by the wind and frost of time and was completely unrecognizable.
If you look closely, you can find that there are countless tiny holes underneath the wood carving, just like the remains left after being corroded and devoured by woodworms.
After a long time, Si Mubai shuddered all over, took a step back, and shed two lines of hot tears. He seemed to be crying and laughing, and slapped the statue that had become rotten wood. In an instant, the whole statue "boomed" and turned into debris.
“Yes, it tastes really good.”
Si Mubai stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
“Although it doesn’t contain the divinity like the master’s wood carvings, and fails to capture the free divinity between heaven and earth… it’s already pretty good. If this meaning is accumulated three or four times, it can also be put together into a ray of divinity, which will be of great help to my [Angry Crying Ghost Suppression].”
Si Mubai sat back on the rosewood armchair and took the cup of fine Pu'er tea handed to him by Xu Beihu.
"Xu Ji, you have found a treasure. This is a perfect seedling for a master. As long as you are willing to cultivate him, he will be the next master of wood carving."
Si Mubai said with some envy.
A smile bloomed on Xu Beihu's rough face. "You haven't even started yet. It's not that easy to become a woodcarving master. And you have to be loyal... My Xu family has trained so many woodcarvers over the past 200 years, but there are probably only a few who have become woodcarving masters."
"If you don't want it, let me give it to the Si family." Si Mubai took a sip of tea, smiling.
"Is that old woman the work of your Si family? She seems to be a member of the Lingying Sect. If you are related to the Lingying Sect, the Si family will not care about you?" The smile on Xu Beihu's face disappeared instantly, and he said lightly.
Si Mubai put down his teacup and said, "Don't be so against the Lingying Sect. Not all things that come out of the strange temple are bad. The court used martial arts to suppress the temple, and the Shenzong cut down mountains and destroyed temples. Aren't they all because there are good things in the strange temple?"
"Divinity, divine laws, martial arts, martial arts...all kinds of inheritance...all came from the strange temple, so why resist?"
Si Mubai said with a smile while drinking his tea.
"The court asked us to recruit divine children and train them to be talents, so that we can explore those strange temples that they don't have time to explore. I heard from my friends in Kyoto that the great gods in the court are all focusing on exploring the new strange temple of 'Sanqing' that appeared outside Kyoto."
"The court is exploring, accepting and integrating, so why should we resist?"
Si Mubai shook his head.
Xu Beihu said sullenly: "The Weird Temple is the Weird Temple, and the Lingying Sect is the Lingying Sect. Don't confuse them."
"Let's not talk about this. I know my limits. Feilei City is governed by our noble families. How can I not take it to heart?"
Si Mubai shook his hands and didn't care.
"Speaking of Li Che, he is quite sensible and steady. Hearing that Lei Chunlan targeted his daughter, he was able to resist taking action... He is really timid."
Simu Bai said.
"This is prudent. Although he has the support of my Xu family, he cannot be sure that the Xu family will support him. He certainly hates Lei Chunlan, but he is very rational. He knows that your Si family is protecting Lei Chunlan and your own strength is not strong. Once a quarrel breaks out, it will be difficult to end. Both families will lose face. There is nothing we can do. We can only choose to take a step back and seek stability."
Xu Beihu said lightly.
"To sum up, this person is... steady and timid, and not to be feared."
…
…
Jinhuang Pavilion.
Li Che turned into a black shadow and approached quietly. Now that he had activated the [Dragon Elephant King Kong], his strength could probably be exerted to the full extent of bone tempering. With nine major tendons opened, the explosive force could reach ten thousand pounds.
In fact, he only had his strength fully developed.
The Dragon Elephant King Kong can allow him to gain an outburst of power that spans a major realm.
The tendons on his back were tensed, and the released force bounced on the ground, silently raising the snow, and Li Che's body floated out.
He rushed into the Jinhuang Pavilion along the wall. He was familiar with the place because he had been there once before.
Jinhuang Pavilion is very large and spacious, just like a noble family compound, with crisscrossing alleys and paths.
There are also guards patrolling, and these guards are all very powerful, with some having reached the level of opening their muscles.
Li Che hid in the darkness, watching indifferently.
There are several aristocratic families behind Jinhuang Pavilion, and it is their common property, so few people dare to cause trouble in Jinhuang Pavilion. Therefore, although there are garrison forces, they seem a bit lazy.
Li Che easily avoided the defensive force and recalled the direction that Lei Chunlan took after she went down.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
His body rose and fell, and the power exerted by perfect bone tempering made him extremely fast. Ordinary people could not even see his shadow.
Li Che didn't know what the relationship between Si Mubai and Lei Chunlan was, nor did he know what deal the Si family had with the Lingying Cult...
Why would he care about that? Lei Chunlan wanted to harm his daughter Xixi, and Li Che had only one goal.
Beat her to death! ...
…
In a luxurious courtyard.
There are many rockery and the shade of the trees is hazy.
Lei Chunlan changed into a clean brocade dress, leaned against the railing, looked at the Si family guard who was guarding her yard, then looked at the scenery in the yard, and a smile appeared on her wrinkled old face.
"It is worthy of being the most luxurious and extravagant Jinhuang Pavilion in the inner city. It is really a great place to enjoy. I have suffered all my life, and now I can finally live a life like this."
“This is how people live.”
Lei Chunlan smiled as brightly as a blooming old chrysanthemum.
The Lingying Sect gave her something she had never enjoyed before.
"As long as the Si family agrees to the deal with the Master, I, an old woman, will be able to become a guest of honor of the Si family... and enjoy endless wealth and glory."
Lei Chunlan's body trembled slightly with excitement.
She brought those babies into this world, and let them exchange for her wealth and glory... It's reasonable, right? "Unfortunately, Li Che is really steady. He knew that I was related to the Lingying Sect, so he moved into Xu's woodcarving shop... I was so lucky that this mere porter could become a woodcarver at Xu's shop."
"What a pity for that spirit baby, it is full of divinity... If I could offer it to the Master of the Law, I could even inherit his divine power! From then on, I would become a superior person!"
Lei Chunlan clenched her fists, her old eyes widened, and she looked somewhat unwilling.
"That's fine. I'm now connected to the Si family, so I'll be able to get the spirit baby sooner or later..."
"A mere woodcarver from Xu's Woodcarving Shop is nothing more than an ant in front of a behemoth like the Si family."
call--
The sky, which had been resting for a while, seemed to feel the coldness of the world and started to snow heavily.
The snowflakes blurred my vision.
Lei Chunlan rubbed her hands and exhaled hot air: "What a horrible weather."
She turned around and began to operate the hot stove, adding charcoal.
Suddenly, her movements froze slightly and her neck raised stiffly.
Then you can see a cluster of rockery in the courtyard.
A burly figure as big as a mountain, wearing a conical hat and a cute cow mask on his face, stood in the raging snow and wind, like a painted halberd that was about to pierce through the sky.
His eyes were gleaming like the bull-headed ghost from hell.
He looked at her with coldness and murderous intent.
