Exorcism

Chapter 57: A Flash of Inspiration

"You shouldn't agree to the martial arts competition. None of us can beat Zhou Ping. Daliang Shen Xiuming was really worried for Xiaoqiu. He took his good friend's arm with worry on his face, "Don't let anything happen to you. "

"He's just two or three years older than us, and he can't cast spells at Yangshen Peak, so he doesn't have much of an advantage." Xiaoqiu agreed that the martial arts competition was not just an impulse, and he had already made a preliminary judgment.

"He's at least twice as big as you!" Shen Hao also felt that Xiaoqiu was too reckless. "And he has already opened his seven orifices and passed through three tribulations. He only has the mouth orifice mountain tribulation yet to come - no, Xiaoqiu. Brother, you can't compete with him, let me do it, at least I survived the thunderstorm."

Xiaoqiu thanked his friends for their kindness, but he would never let others stand up for him. "As long as he can't cast spells, it doesn't matter how many orifices Zhou Ping has opened. He is big and his movements will definitely be slower. I will use this to defeat him." he."

Everyone was speechless for a moment. They have all competed with Xiao Qiu before, especially Shen Hao. When they were in Yelin Town, they had conflicts with Xiao Qiu every three days. Although he was taller and stronger, he lost more than he won. "Brother Xiao Qiu is like "It's as slippery as a loach," Shen Hao said angrily, still brooding over his previous defeat.

"And Brother Xiaoqiu knows spells." Mu Feihuang, the idiot, stretched out his right arm and imitated Xiaoqiu's way of casting spells, but did not dare to pronounce a word. "Isn't this how Shen Geng was defeated? Brother Xiaoqiu only needs to Use it again and defeat Zhou Ping."

"Can I still use spells at Yangshen Peak?" Daliang asked.

"Hmm..." Xiaoqiu originally wanted to say no, but when he looked at his friends around him, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. He didn't want to doubt anyone for no reason, but if there was evidence, he didn't want to be fooled either.

"Yes, I tried it last night. Although the effect is limited, it still works." Xiaoqiu decided to tell a little lie. In fact, without Fangfang's help, his spell could not be separated from his fingers and was completely ineffective. .

Now no one doubted it anymore. Shen Geng had a clear vision of the three fields, and his spiritual cultivation was one level higher than Zhou Ping's. He couldn't block the spell, and Zhou Ping couldn't block it.

"Do you want to learn spells?" Xiaoqiu had a sudden idea. If several people joined hands and cast spells at the same time, the power might be greater, enough to break the restrictions of Yangshen Peak.

This sentence itself is like a mantra. The friends who were enthusiastic just now suddenly changed their expressions and backed away. Daliang even wanted to hide under the table, "Brother Xiaoqiu, please don't talk nonsense. I don't want to hear it again." I have completely forgotten Madman Mei’s spell. If you recite it later, I won’t watch you compete.

"Then I'll recite it silently during the martial arts competition." Xiaoqiu was very helpless. "The masters have said that this mantra is fine. It is a mind-reading technique from a long time ago, but no one has passed it down. What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid of being distracted!" Shen Hao looked at Xiaoqiu in surprise, thinking that this was a very simple truth, "The teachers all said that the mind has no dual purpose, and the Tao has no dual purpose. Whether it's a spell or a mind, it's all The fruits of past exploration are now clear, and those irrelevant and useless things should be thrown aside without even looking at them. If it weren't for defeating Zhou Ping, I really don't want you to use spells again."

Just when Xiao Qiu was about to defend herself, Shen Hao added, "And you also dragged Fangfang into the water. Did you two practice spells together last night?"

"Both of us... how did you know?" Xiao Qiu clearly remembered that she didn't disclose this matter to anyone, not even Daliang knew about it.

"Well, Xiao Qingtao told me, I just wanted to say..."

"You don't have to worry about Xiaoqiu and Fangfang's affairs.

At this time, Daliang was completely on the side of his good friend, and whispered to Xiaoqiu: "Look, I knew that Xiao Qingtao was not strict with her mouth. She must have leaked the secret before." "

"That's right, Xiao Qingtao sends messages to her two younger brothers every day. In order to make us as isolated as they are, the Pei brothers love to sow discord." Mu Feihuang said bitterly.

Before leaving the dining room, the Pei siblings had been identified as the leakers.

The corridor outside the house was full of people standing on both sides, gathering in twos and threes, not lining up as usual.

The teenagers from Yelin Town escorted Xiao Qiu like bodyguards. A retained disciple who looked older than Zhou Ping stopped on the road. He bowed first and said, "You can't beat Zhou Ping. He has been at Yangshen Peak for three years." Although he is still one calamity away, his physique is extraordinary and you cannot be his opponent.

"I haven't fought yet." Xiaoqiu said calmly. This was the standard tone of Yangshen Peak. Otherwise, it would not be enough to show that he was calm.

"Why waste time and everyone's energy."

Shen Hao walked up to Xiao Qiu and said, "Your energy is yours to use. You can use it however you want. No one invited you to watch the competition!"

The retained disciple shook his head, "Only Taoist priests who condense Qi into elixirs can not be affected by external objects. We are all ordinary disciples and are in the initial stage of practice. It is inevitable that there will be times when we are impetuous. We should support each other and work together to create The atmosphere is peaceful and no one wants to cause trouble.”

"Then the fight will be over as soon as possible, and the trouble will be over." Xiao Qiu walked around Shen Hao and said loudly, "After sunset, in front of Qiyao Hall, everyone is welcome to come and watch. Once you know the result, you no longer have to worry about it."

Looking at the retreating figures of the young men in Yelin Town, the retained disciple shook his head gently, "He is not worthy of learning Taoism and practicing at all, not worthy."

Seven people squeezed into the small room and it was full. The friends took turns giving advice to Xiaoqiu. One said that Zhou Ping had a big hole in his back, and the other said that his ankles and lower body were weak. They couldn't argue, and Xiaoqiu heard it in his mind. There was a buzzing sound, so he simply jumped on the bed: "Let me be quiet for a while."

After just practicing a few moves, Daliang opened the door and poked his head in, "Zhou Ping has gone to Qiyao Hall, and Mu Feihuang has gone to inquire about the news."

"Zhou Ping lifted a stone weighing several hundred kilograms and threw it into the air several times."

"Zhou Ping practiced a set of boxing techniques in public. It is said that it is a close combat technique that we can only learn in five months."

"Zhou Ping asked several of his disciples to take turns punching him. He didn't move a step and bounced the person who punched him away. His foot was very stable."

"Zhou Ping is not afraid of being beaten from behind. Brother Xiaoqiu, you have to be careful."

Daliang cared about Xiaoqiu, and would push the door to tell him every time he got some news. As a result, Xiaoqiu didn't even finish a complete bone-forging fist. When the door opened again, Xiaoqiu jumped up and was about to ask Daliang to shut up. , but it was Shen Hao who leaned in, and he reminded calmly: "The sun is setting."

People gathered in front of Qiyao Hall, and almost all the disciples were there. There were even four or five disciples standing in the crowd, including Lin Sa. They were chatting casually, with no intention of stopping the competition, even in the air. An oil lamp floated up, illuminating the place as bright as day.

Zhou Ping had arrived early. He took off his blue robe, revealing the tight-fitting clothes underneath. He had just moved his hands and feet, and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead. It seemed that he felt very good. After all, he was a disciple who had been practicing for several years. Even if he won, Zai Zai did not show off, and his expression became calmer, as if he was forced to participate in the competition and just hoped it would end as soon as possible.

In the eyes of the onlookers, this was a competition without much suspense. They only wondered about one thing: What happened to the disciple named Mu Xingqiu, who entered Yangshen Peak a month late and only showed up a few days ago? Just causing trouble everywhere.

Lin Sa smiled and asked the tutor around him: "Who do you think will win? We can make a bet."

The tutor smiled and shook his head. Betting in front of his disciples was not a good example. "It's good to have a martial arts competition once in a while. It can release everyone's accumulated evil spirits. Winning or losing is not important."

For some people winning or losing is very important.

Shen Hao followed Xiao Qiu closely, patted him on the back and said, "Go around in circles and follow him. He is heavy and cannot afford to waste time with you."

Daliang was even more worried about the safety of his good friend, "If you can't beat me, just admit defeat. There's no need to fight forcefully. What we will be comparing in the future is the progress of our practice. No matter how powerful we fight, it's useless..."

Xiaoqiu hummed twice, took off her Taoist robe and handed it to Daliang, then stepped into the arena, and the crowd automatically made way for him.

This was an occasion where there was no need to abide by the rules, but the male and female disciples still stood separately. As soon as Xiaoqiu stopped opposite Zhou Ping, she heard a sharp and soft "Brother Xiaoqiu". Xiao Qingtao and Fangfang waved to him in the crowd, attracting many curious and reproachful looks.

Xiaoqiu smiled and waved to the two of them, turned around, and exchanged Taoist gifts with Zhou Ping.

"Friends seeking advice, I still want to advise you: you will find your way back when you have lost your way, and don't go further and further down the wrong path."

"Let's just fight, everyone has been waiting for so long."

Zhou Ping snorted and without further words, rushed towards Xiao Qiu. Xiao Qiu evaded flexibly, found an opportunity to turn behind his opponent, and punched Zhou Ping in the back.

The teenagers in Yelin Town cheered, but their voices soon died down, because Zhou Ping was not affected at all, his steps were not disturbed at all, and he turned around and continued to chase his opponent.

Xiaoqiu used dodge tactics, and occasionally fought back, but it didn't take long for him to find that this move was useless. Zhou Ping was obviously tall and fat, and he was attacking, but he always had plenty of physical strength. After several years of practice, it was indeed It was not wasted. Not only did he not show any signs of fatigue, but he hit harder and harder, and his speed was gradually increasing!

Everyone could see that if this continued, Xiaoqiu would be the first to be exhausted.

Xiaoqiu gave up dodging and instead engaged Zhou Ping directly.

Shen Hao sighed and whispered to his friends: "It seems that I still have to use that trick. Hey, I really don't want him to use it."

Sure enough, after only five or six moves, Xiaoqiu was already overwhelmed. He suddenly pulled away, stretched out his right arm, and moved his lips slightly, as if he was reciting something.

Just as Xiaoqiu stretched out his arm, Zhou Ping had already dodged and attacked in a detour, obviously well prepared.

He was fooled.

Xiaoqiu didn't recite the spell at all, and stretching out his arms was just a false move. As soon as Zhou Ping dodged, he had already rushed forward. Taking advantage of this short opening, he jumped on Zhou Ping's back and tightly strangled the thick neck with his right arm. , raised his left fist and smashed it down hard - he remembered the reminder from Meng Yuanhou: the enemy must be hit so that he does not dare to fight back or cannot fight back.

Xiaoqiu's "flash of inspiration" allowed him to seize Zhou Ping's flaw and turn defeat into victory, but this was not the only result he wanted in his heart!

Between the punches, Xiaoqiu raised his head and took a quick glance, and recognized who the informer was among the frightened faces. It was his partner and the traitor of Yelin Town.
