Chapter 96 Earth Magnetic Light, Ying Bing's Death (Asking for Monthly Votes)
That alone.
It would be impossible for Wei Tu to marry Liu Yun.
"If you don't want to, just don't want to. Why are you making such a big fuss?" Liu Yun curled her lips.
She was startled by the evil aura behind Wei Tu's cold face just now.
After sending Wei Tu out, Liu Yun glanced at Wei Tu's back and maliciously speculated: "Isn't it good for someone named Wei? I have been a widower for so long and I haven't found a woman to vent my anger."
She has sufficient confidence in her appearance.
…
A few days later.
Liu Yun moved away.
After learning the news, Tong Peipei completed the leasing procedures the next day, moved into the small courtyard on Yunque Street, and became neighbors with Wei Tu.
Although Wei Tuming had a cold expression on Tong Peipei's arrival and seemed to still resent Tong Peipei's trick on him a few years ago, in fact, he welcomed Tong Peipei in his heart.
Compared to the fights between Wang Danshi and his wife, and the probing murderous intentions of "Yu Chiyu"... this little conflict between him and Tong Peipei was nothing.
"Yesterday, the law enforcement team punished Gong Shulan for murdering Danshi Wang. According to the autopsy done by his wife, Danshi Wang did not die from a windstorm, but his death was also inextricably related to Gong Shulan..."
"Gong Shulan said that Master Wang's injury was related to Zhao Qingluo."
In the courtyard of Yunque Street, Tong Peipei and Hu Yao were sitting at the stone table where Wei Tu and Wu Xianshi used to sit. The two discussed Dan Qiu Shan's punishment of Gong Shulan for killing Master Wang Dan.
"Zhao Qingluo is such a big shot, how could he be related to Master Wang?"
Tong Peipei was suspicious.
Hu Yao pondered and looked at the room where Wei Tu was, "Listening to Gong Shulan's confession, it seems to be related to Fellow Daoist Wei."
Then, she explained, "The Chisong Jia family and the Qiyue Zhao family are at war with each other. Zhao Qingluo came to Danqiu Mountain a few days ago and purchased a batch of talismans, elixirs, and magical instruments."
"Now, Fellow Daoist Wei has been pushed to the forefront. It is estimated that within a few days, the law enforcement team will ask Fellow Daoist Wei for questioning."
Hu Yao said.
…
Close the doors and windows again.
The conversation between Hu Yao and Tong Peipei outside the house became quieter.
"Fellow Daoist Hu is reminding me to make some preparations as soon as possible in case I am at a loss after going to the law enforcement team..."
Wei Tu thought.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
A few years ago, because he deliberately distanced himself from Hu Yao, Hu Yao basically stopped visiting him now.
Today's reminder was that Hu Yao deliberately used her conversation with Tong Peipei to inform him.
"Fellow Daoist Hu is a good man."
Wei Tu sent Hu Yao a good person card.
But after issuing the good person card, Wei Tu had no intention of running to "repair the relationship" with Hu Yao.
The fact that he had less contact with Hu Yao didn't mean that he didn't want to see Hu Yao anymore. The bigger reason... was to avoid suspicion.
Prevent Hu Yao's "financier",
Notice him.
"The spiritual stone that I just got is about to be sent away to make some connections."
Wei Tu pried open the floorboard under the bed and took a look at the more than 130 spiritual stones neatly arranged, feeling quite reluctant to part with them.
These spirit stones were accumulated over four years of drawing talismans, including the deposit of twenty spirit stones given by Zhao Qingluo.
After sighing a few times, Wei Tu took more than ten spiritual stones, carried them with him, and took the initiative to go out to find the law enforcement team in Danqiu Mountain.
…
evening.
When Wei Tu came back, most of his spiritual stones were missing, and his body also smelled of wine.
He fetched a bucket of well water, washed his face, and when he sobered up, he continued to draw symbols.
But after painting for a while.
He felt that the anger in his chest was getting stronger and stronger, so he dug out the blank book where he had held grudges before, and added the word "Geng Wen" under the name "Tong Peipei".
Although he did not investigate clearly whether Geng Wen was responsible for this account, it did not affect him from recording this hatred on Geng Wen's head.
"As the saying goes."
"Unjust is doomed to destruction."
"Geng Wen is only at the ninth level of Qi training, a mere first-level mid-level alchemist. If he dances so happily, he will die sooner or later."
Wei Tu put down his pen and sneered.
I often walk on the roadside without getting my shoes wet.
Hu Yao had originally told him about Geng Wen, but he didn't believe it. The other monks in Danqiu Shanfang City didn't notice Geng Wen's "abnormality".
These people were probably just like him, hiding and waiting to kill Geng Wen with one blow.
"Practice first."
After taking revenge, Wei Tu's mind gradually calmed down. He sat cross-legged, holding two spiritual stones in his hands, and slowly absorbed the spiritual energy inside.
"Has the geomagnetic wood spirit species changed?"
After practicing for half an hour, Wei Tu looked at the geomagnetic wood spirit species in his dantian in shock.
I saw that outside this soybean-sized spiritual seed, as he breathed and breathed, a layer of gray light gradually grew.
"Could it be..."
Seeing this, Wei Tu remembered the words about the "transformation" of geomagnetic wood in "Little Spring and Autumn Gong", and his heart beat a few times.
According to the technique of "Little Spring and Autumn Gong", after he breaks through the foundation building stage, the geomagnetic wood spirit species will derive "geomagnetic Yuan Guang".
"Geomagnetic Yuanguang" possesses the power of geomagnetism. In addition to the "object control" effect of the monk's spiritual consciousness, it can also restrain all magical weapons containing metal objects.
If the geomagnetic primary light is extremely powerful, it can also restrain other five elements of spiritual beings.
"If you can master the magical powers of the foundation building stage during the Qi training stage, these fifteen years will not be in vain!"
Wei Tu looked happy.
He calmed down, used his spiritual sense, and carefully pulled the "geomagnetic primordial light" outside the spirit seed out of his body.
After a while.
Wei Tu's fingertips were stained with a layer of light gray. He focused his eyes and looked at the several earth-piercing talismans on the table.
"Get up!" Wei Tu pointed out with one finger, and the geomagnetic primordial light in his hand suddenly left his body and rushed to the talismans on the table.
Under the control of his mind, these earth-piercing talismans rushed towards him.
Then.
Wei Tu controlled the geomagnetic primordial light in his hand and tested other effects several times.
"Awesome!"
"The spiritual sense of the Qi training period can only be released to a ten-foot area at most, but my geomagnetic primordial light can be released to a three-foot area, and it is much easier to control objects than spiritual sense."
Wei Tu took out a pen and paper and wrote down the abilities of the "geomagnetic primordial light" he had tested on the paper one by one.
"It's just a pity."
"This little geomagnetic light is still too little. It can only lift three pounds of things at most. If it's more, it won't work."
Wei Tu sighed.
He also wanted to use the "geomagnetic light" to achieve long-term flight during the Qi training period.
In that case, no matter how strong the cultivators of the ninth level of Qi training are, they can't catch up with him or beat him.
"Don't be discouraged."
"Now this little geomagnetic light is just the beginning. After the spirit seed is truly transformed, maybe I can fly in the air."
Wei Tu observed the "geomagnetic wood" spirit seed with his consciousness and found that this spirit seed would produce some geomagnetic light every hour.
Although the number is limited, only the size of sesame seeds, but over time, the number is also considerable.
...
After noticing the transformation of the spirit seed.
Wei Tu's depression and irritability caused by Geng Wen's calculations all dissipated.
He began a peaceful life of drawing talismans and meditating in the small courtyard of Yunque Street every day.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye.
Another three years have passed.
This year, the Zhao family of Qiuyue fulfilled their promise and came to the courtyard of Yunque Street to purchase the talismans drawn by Wei Tu in the past three years according to the order.
However, the Zhao family cultivator who came this time was not Zhao Qingluo, but a royal prince named "Zhao Quan".
After Zhao Quan took the talismans, he did not sign a new order with Wei Tu.
Wei Tu guessed that the war between the two major immortal cultivation families might come to an end.
Or... the Zhao family of Qiuyue has found a new talisman master and does not need him anymore.
...
Excluding the cost of talisman paper and spiritual ink, Wei Tu made a net profit of 117 spiritual stones in the transaction with the Zhao family of Qiuyue.
However, these spiritual stones were soon consumed by Wei Tu.
He spent 163 spiritual stones in the Treasure Pavilion to buy a first-level mid-grade talisman pen.
Wei Tu still understood the principle of "If you want to do something well, you must first sharpen your tools".
The first-level mid-grade talisman pen is enough for him to use throughout the Qi training period.
It is much more cost-effective than buying a first-grade inferior talisman pen now.
Two months later.
Fu Zhizhou came to visit.
But compared with the past, this time Fu Zhizhou had one more thing in his hand.
A bundle the size of a human head, with blood flowing underneath, which looked extremely creepy.
"Third brother, I will help you avenge your hatred. This is the head of Ying Bing."
Fu Zhizhou sat on a stone bench in the courtyard. In front of Wei Tu, he opened the bundle and exposed the head inside.
"This guy finally couldn't hold it back a few days ago and left Danqiu Mountain. I caught the opportunity..."
Fu Zhizhou sneered.
He has always been brooding over this matter.
After all, the robbery of the cultivators was caused by his exposure of wealth back then. If Wei Tu hadn't been lucky, he would have become the murderer who killed Wei Tu.
"Ying Bing is dead?"
Although Wei Tu was happy to see Ying Bing's body, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Once Ying Bing dies, Geng Wen will definitely notice it."
"You and I brothers should be careful and don't let him have any chance..."
He warned.
"Don't worry, third brother." Fu Zhizhou waved his hand and smiled, "Brother Helian has already broken through to the eighth level of Qi training a few days ago. With his strength, he is enough to protect you and me."
"Geng Wen? He is just an alchemist. How can his combat power compare to those of us who are ghostwriters?"
At this point, Fu Zhizhou also revealed his own cultivation.
"Sixth level of Qi training?"
Wei Tu was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Fu Zhizhou had broken through two small realms in just seven years.
The realm was ahead of him again.
"This is also thanks to the help of the talisman of the third brother. Without the talisman of the third brother, how could Brother Helian and I dare to set foot in the depths of the Demon Wolf Mountains..."
Fu Zhizhou explained.
Hearing this.
Wei Tu nodded.
The talismans he sold to Fu Zhizhou were almost at cost price, and the talismans he sold to Helian Xiong were also 30% lower than the market price.
With the help of the talismans, the two of them inevitably gained some courage in their hearts and dared to go to the Demon Wolf Mountains to hunt and make huge profits.
In this way, if the two of them did not improve their cultivation quickly, it would be suspicious.
"Don't worry, third brother."
"In a few days, Brother Helian will move to Yunque Street and live with you, third brother."
"Seeing that Brother Helian is here, Geng Wen dare not attack you, third brother."
Fu Zhizhou said again.
"Helian Xiong is moving here?" Wei Tu raised his eyebrows and captured this key information.
——There are many defensive talismans sewn on the inside of his robe, even if Geng Wen comes in person, he may not be able to hurt him.
Therefore, although he accepted Helian Xiong's favor, he didn't care much in his heart.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
"Third brother, you know that Helian is away from home all year round, and he thinks it's not worthwhile to rent a cave that's too expensive..."
"And living in a shantytown, the spiritual energy is insufficient."
"After thinking about it."
"It's still suitable here in Yunque Street."
Fu Zhizhou said.
"As long as you think it's suitable." Wei Tu shook his head and reminded.
There are now two people in the Yunque Street courtyard, him and Tong Peipei. If there is one more person, the cost performance will not be very high.
Helian Xiong and he are just casual friends. He sold Helian Xiong's talismans, and it was Fu Zhizhou who made the deal.
Now that Helian Xiong came to Yunque Street, Wei Tu thought about it for a while and guessed that Helian Xiong should have the idea of bypassing Fu Zhizhou and trading talismans with him directly.
"I believe in the character of Helian."
After knowing each other for many years, Fu Zhizhou quickly understood the meaning of Wei Tu's words. He smiled and replied.
...
On the other side
Deep in the Danqiu Mountain Market, in a beautifully built cave.
"What?"
"Is Ying Bing dead?"
In the alchemy room, an old man in feathered clothes sat cross-legged on a cushion in front of the alchemy furnace. After hearing Chu Yin's report, he frowned and was a little unsure.
Ying Bing was very powerful. If he used the "Blood Explosion Pill" he refined, he could be comparable to a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training in a short period of time.
How could it be possible that he died shortly after leaving Danqiu Mountain.
"Is it related to Wei Tu?"
Geng Wen searched his memory, his face sank slightly, and asked.
Seven years ago, he sent Zhuo Yan and Ying Bing to kill Wei Tu, wanting to find out the "opportunity" obtained by Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou.
He suspected that this opportunity might be related to the "legacy" of the Gong family.
Gong Shulan fell into the shantytown, and it happened that Fu Zhizhou had a lot of spirit stones of unknown origin on him at this time, and bought the Diyuan Pill...
But unexpectedly.
Zhuo Yan unfortunately died.
Later.
As Chu Yin's test was over.
Wei Tu stayed at home again.
He gradually forgot about Wei Tu, and put Wei Tu, a first-level low-grade talisman master, behind his mind.
It was not until now, after Ying Bing's death, that he remembered Wei Tu, a potential enemy.
"It's Fu Zhizhou."
Chu Yin looked respectful, took out a communication talisman, and handed it to Geng Wen.
On the blank talisman paper, the three words "Fu Zhizhou" were written.
"Fu Zhizhou?" Geng Wen's eyes showed murderous intent. He looked at Chu Yin, "Wait until Fu Zhizhou leaves Danqiu Mountain, and hire someone to kill him."
"And Wei Tu..."
Geng Wen's eyes were cold, "This person has a good heart. He must have noticed your test last time and deliberately concealed it."
He was talking.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Master, a ghostwriter who calls himself Helian Xiong sent you a visiting card."
"He said he has something to discuss with you."
The maid standing outside the door said.
"Helian Xiong?" Geng Wen raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Is it the cultivator who broke through the eighth level of Qi training some time ago?"
"It seems that he wants to ask me for something and wants to ask me for pills."
Geng Wen felt confident and told the maid outside the door to invite Helian Xiong in.
Chu Yin, who was standing by, saw this scene and wanted to warn him, but after thinking for a while, she suppressed the words in her throat.
