Chapter 11 Close Combat
After seeking help to no avail, Ji Qingling decided to change his tactics.
It is really hard to describe the magical attacks of her level of cultivation.
She abandoned the long knife and stepped forward with a dagger, deciding to engage the rabbit in hand-to-hand combat.
When the Wind Rabbit saw Ji Qingling approaching, it immediately tried to escape the encirclement from her side.
Ji Linhai raised his hand and threw a fireball, scaring it back to its original position.
Ji Qingling took the opportunity to stab it with the dagger, leaving another knife mark on its back.
The Wind-Armored Rabbit seemed to know that it had no way to retreat, and it stood up to bite Ji Qingling, but was blocked by her arm that had already been enchanted with the Golden Armor Technique.
There was a man and a beast, you stabbed me and I retreated, I bit you and you dodged, and neither of us gained any advantage.
When Ji Qingling dodged the Wind-Armored Rabbit's attack again, she discovered that the gray area under the rabbit's throat was somewhat different from other parts.
Could it be here? If so, when the other side jumped up and grabbed her again, Ji Qingling found the right opportunity and stabbed the dagger into its throat...
The next moment, on the grass in the woods.
The little girl held a dagger in her hand, and a wind-armored rabbit on the dagger had stopped twitching.
"Yeah~" Ji Qingling was also wondering why he was so excited?
Ji Qingyuan looked at Ji Xiaomei holding a dead wind-armored rabbit in her hand and screaming foolishly. Was this a demon?
"Put it down quickly, put it down, it's covered in blood and it's very dirty."
He took the rabbit away and used a cleaning technique to clean the blood off Ji Xiaomei's face and hands.
"How is it?" Ji Qingling raised his eyebrows.
"Very good, amazing." Ji Qingyuan gave a thumbs up. The claws of the wind-armored rabbit are very sharp.
Glancing at Ji Qingling's sleeves that were stained red again, he said, "Little sister Ji, you're hurt!"
"ah?"
"Where is the injury?" Ji Linhai and his wife came over and grabbed Ji Qingling's arm to check.
The three bloodstains were particularly eye-catching on the white and tender arms.
Mo Sanniang hurriedly took out medicine powder and white cloth to bandage her wound.
"Hiss——" I was too excited just now and didn't feel anything. Now I feel it's quite painful.
"It's okay, the wound is not deep, it will heal in two days."
Mo Sanniang comforted her.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
"You girl."
The family took out some food and rested on the spot. By the time they returned to the village, it was almost dark.
Just like that, three months passed quickly.
Because there has been no news from the Ji family in Tongcheng, we cannot stop obtaining supplies for cultivation.
The village chief and Ji Qingshan had to take turns leading people to other mountains to hunt animals and collect herbs.
Ji Linhai and his wife naturally had to follow them out.
Occasionally when he has free time, he would take the brother and sister to the mountains to kill monsters.
Usually, Ji Qingyuan would stay at home with Ji Qingling.
Fortunately, Ji Qingyuan, who was at the second level of Qi Refining, was able to teach Ji Qingling some simple basic spells.
Gradually, Ji Qingling learned more and more small spells.
Cleaning skills: Very useful for cleaning your home and yourself.
Light Body Technique: One jump can take you about ten feet away and you can even float in the air. Ji Qingling likes this the most, but it consumes too much spiritual energy and he can't keep it up for a while.
Object Controlling Technique: Good news for lazy people. Just move your fingers and whatever you want will fly in front of you.
On this day, the village chief gathered everyone together.
"This is a matter that concerns everyone. I have discussed it with Qingshan and I still need to inform you."
"What's the matter?" People below began to talk.
"Qingshan and I went to Tongcheng."
"What, you went to Tongcheng? Then, village chief, did you bring back our supplies?"
"Yes, what's the difference between us and independent cultivators now? The clan doesn't give out anything anymore."
"If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to build a foundation in this lifetime."
Ji Qingshan stood up and said, "Everyone, please stop interrupting and listen to the village chief. Today we are here to discuss this matter with you."
Ji Qingshan has the highest cultivation level in the village, and he is still young, with the best qualifications among these people.
In everyone's mind, he was already the candidate for the next village chief, and after hearing him say that, everyone who was talking shut up.
The village chief continued with a gloomy tone, “We went to Tongcheng, but we didn’t see the clan leader. He said he was in seclusion.
Furthermore, none of the elders came out to meet us, and they only sent a Foundation Establishment Stage steward out.”
At this point the village chief sighed, clearly not wanting to see them.
“The implication of that steward’s words is that the Ji family has been severely damaged this time and their situation is no longer as good as before.
I’m afraid we’ll have to figure out how to get supplies ourselves in the future.”
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"What, what does the patriarch mean? He doesn't care whether we live or die?" A strong man stood up, looking a little excited.
Ji Qingling took a look and saw that this was Susu's father, who was also at the foundation-building stage. He looked strong but was henpecked.
"Alas, from what the manager said, I'm afraid he's blaming us for not protecting the trees well."
"But the opponent is in the late Jindan stage. The five elders were beaten by him and couldn't move. If we rush in, we will die."
Some people in the crowd continued to speak indignantly.
The village chief raised his hand to stop the man from continuing, "No matter what the reason is, Tongcheng will not distribute supplies to us anymore. Next we need to discuss what to do next."
"Why? My family has been guarding this tree for generations. My father was bitten to death by a monster when it broke into the tree."
A young man clenched his fists and waved them in the air twice, as if this could vent his dissatisfaction.
Ji Qingshan glanced at him and said, "That manager meant that we don't need to guard Xiaowang Mountain anymore.
You can take this opportunity to go to other places in the mainland and maybe you can encounter opportunities. "
Ji Qingling whispered in her brother's ear: "It means that the world is so big, you have to go and see it."
Ji Qingyuan covered her mouth with a slap: "Don't talk."
The village chief added: "Yes, and the clan is not ignoring everyone, but the family is in trouble now. When the Ji family recovers in the future, we will notify everyone to return to Tongcheng."
"What I mean is that when you are needed, you come here, and when you are not needed, you stay aside." Ji Qingling did not give up and continued to translate for Ji Qingyuan wholeheartedly.
"Shut up!" Ji Qingyuan pushed her head away. Ji Xiaomei was really annoying.
Mo Sanniang turned around and said, "Be quiet."
"oh"
In fact, Ji Qingling was not worried at all. Aren't those independent cultivators living well? Why do they have to join a family and obey others?
"Village chief, I want to hear what you mean. Many people in the village grew up under your care. I want to hear your opinion on this matter."
"I……"
The village chief hesitated to speak.
The village chief didn't say anything, but someone else spoke up: "I think this is good. I've lived in Xiaowang Mountain since I was born, and the farthest place I've been is the nearest market. It would be nice to go out and try my luck."
"Ah, you know nothing, kid. Do you think it's so easy to be a casual cultivator? How many people went out alive but came back dead?"
An old man stood up to refute.
“Back then, I was unable to break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining, so I went out with two other tribesmen from the village to look for opportunities.
Who knew that instead of finding the opportunity, they both lost their lives.
The world is too difficult for independent cultivators. Without a family behind you, those murderers and robbers will look for you first."
The old man continued to sigh.
"Third uncle, your life is almost over and you have only reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. It is better for you to go out and fight for your life than to stay in the village and die of old age."
"you……"
