Chapter 130: Entering the Ying Family Again
Although I was extremely reluctant to see that ugly thing again.
In order to figure out the usage of the Qianyuan Pen, Li Shiqian agreed.
Xu Qiuqian is full of confidence.
She had successfully drawn the talisman, so how could she fail in drawing the Zhizhi? With the experience from last time, she was obviously more successful in drawing the Zhizhi this time.
The sound that came out was still a khaki-colored "squeak".
Li Shiqian endured the eye-catching appearance, took it in her hands and studied it carefully, exploring the spiritual power in "Zhizhi"'s body, and finally came to a conclusion.
"There is no spiritual power fluctuation, it is just an ordinary little beast."
"No, it's not even an ordinary little beast, and it shows no signs of vitality." Without vitality and spiritual fluctuations, it is at most a decoration.
It's the kind of ornament that disappears after a while.
Xu Qiuqian looked at the description of the Qianyuan Pen, thoughtfully.
"Paint with a brush."
Not knowing what she was thinking of, she sat down cross-legged and began to recover her spiritual power. After recovery, she picked up the Qianyuan pen and started again.
Li Shiqian and Yun Yi were both curious about what she would draw next.
Xu Qiuqian was seen drawing while looking at the broom in the corner of the yard.
The broom is simple and only requires a few strokes.
So it was painted quickly.
The broom is naturally khaki in color. Although it is a little different from the broom in the corner, it can indeed be used as a broom.
Hold it in your hand.
"Okay, let's see when the broom disappears. Shiqian and Xiaoyi, you guys practice. I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, he went back to the second floor.
After returning, Xu Qiuqian did not sleep, but started to exercise.
Fighting in the Qi Refining Stage is mostly done with hand-to-hand combat, so body training is very important.
The next day, Xu Qiuqian did not sign up for the competition.
The ring competition is already on track, and there is no need for her to participate every day.
It just so happened that she didn't like today's restrictive magic weapon very much.
When the monks who were waiting for her saw that she did not come, they went to do their own things.
Xu Qiuqian found Ying Liangzhi and asked him to take her to Ying's house again. She wanted to meet Ying Zhen's mother.
"By the way, it's best not to be discovered."
"Then please trouble Manager Xu to change your appearance and put on the clothes of my Ying family disciples."
Xu Qiuqian responded.
After entering the Ying family, under the guidance of Ying Liangzhi, they arrived at the residence of Ying Zhen's mother.
On the way, Ying Liangzhi said, "Yesterday I inquired about the situation of Ying Zhen's mother after Ying Zhen left."
"how?"
Ying Liangzhi shook his head: "There is nothing wrong. After Ying Zhen went to train, the clan still distributed resources on time every month, and Xu collected them for Ying Zhen. The only thing wrong is that other inner disciples had tried to get the storage bag, but after they took it, the storage bag was empty, so I guess it must have been used by Xu."
"Then Xu's cultivation..."
"No change. This is the only thing that seems wrong to me. If Xu really used the resources given to Ying Zhen, why hasn't her cultivation level increased at all in the past two years?"
Xu Qiuqian paused.
A guess arose in my heart, but I felt that this guess was too ridiculous, so I suppressed it temporarily.
Soon, the two arrived at the small courtyard where Xu lived.
"Since Ying Zhen's training, the Xu family has also moved to this remote and dilapidated little courtyard."
It can be seen that there are indeed not many people living around.
I didn't expect that the Ying family had such a remote and dilapidated place.
Xu Qiuqian walked forward and knocked on the door.
There was no movement for a long while.
As her spiritual sense spread out, she saw a woman in plain clothes walking towards the door. Her hair was a little messy and her expression was full of panic.
It's like... the feeling of being paranoid after being frightened for a long time.
Soon, the door opened.
Seeing Ying Liangzhi, Xu bowed and whispered, "I wonder what the clan leader wants to do?"
"I came here to inquire about Ying Zhen."
"If you're asking about Zhen'er's whereabouts, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. Zhen'er went out for training two years ago, and I don't know where he went."
"If we don't ask about his whereabouts, can you let us go in first?" Xu Qiuqian said.
Xu looked over.
"This is..."
"Oh, I am a foreign disciple of the Ying family. When I was young, I was helped by Senior Brother Ying Zhen."
Xu Qiuqian noticed that when she said this, there was a strange expression on Xu's face, which disappeared in a flash, but Xu's expression had been extremely strange since then.
"It's not that I don't want to entertain you, it's just that my humble abode is so simple, there's really no place to entertain you."
"No problem."
"Why do you two insist on coming into my little courtyard?" Xu looked puzzled.
Ying Liangzhi was speechless.
It was Xu Qiuqian who asked back, "Then why don't you let us in?"
Xu fell silent.
After a moment, he said helplessly: "Since you two don't mind, then come in."
The two entered the yard, Xu looked around, and then closed the door.
Seeing this, Xu Qiuqian asked curiously, "Why is my aunt so cautious?"
Xu smiled awkwardly.
"It's mainly because after Zhen'er left, a lot of people came to look for me."
"Oh? What are they?"
The smile on Xu's face became even more awkward: "They are the families of those foreign disciples two years ago."
As she spoke, she smiled bitterly, "I didn't know about that either. It was only before Zhen'er went out for training that he briefly told me about it and asked me to move here and have less contact with others. I didn't know why Zhen'er would suggest his fellow apprentices to go hunting deep in the Fierce Wind Forest, but they actually went."
"If I had known then, I would have stopped it! Oh, by the way, I'll go get you some tea."
After Xu said this, she turned around and hurried into the hall.
Xu Qiuqian nodded and looked around.
The courtyard is very shabby and visible. There is a small kitchen next to it where you can cook.
There are three rooms in total except the living room.
Two rooms were closed and one was open. The open one should be Xu's room.
As for the two closed rooms, Xu Qiuqian tried to spread out his spiritual sense to investigate, but found that his spiritual sense was unable to detect anything.
"What are you looking at?" Ying Liangzhi asked her.
"Those two closed doors cannot be detected by spiritual sense."
It’s very strange, why would there be restrictions in such a dilapidated courtyard?
Ying Liangzhi understood, and when Xu came up with the tea, he said, "You live in this remote place, but you don't know that a big thing happened in Youling City recently."
"What's the big deal?" Xu asked subconsciously.
"There are monsters in Youling City."
Xu was surprised: "How could a monster appear in Youling City?"
"I was curious, too. Later, I heard someone say that the monster escaped from the Ying family and that the Ying family was raising monsters."
"This... I don't know either."
Xu looked even more embarrassed, and even blamed Ying Liangzhi in her heart.
Why did he tell her about this? It had nothing to do with her, and it was his family's business. Even if Xu knew about it, she would definitely not tell anyone.
But it’s in the sentence that comes after.
"Some people wonder how the monster could escape from the Ying family. A disciple of the Xiao family said that the monster was caught by Ying Zhen from the Fierce Wind Forest for the fourth brother. Xu, what do you think?"
"How is this possible! How can Zhen'er be that powerful! That monster is at least level three, and Zhen'er is only at level ten..."
