Pawn Crossing the River
Chapter 86: See the poor dagger in the picture (2)
Qingbai Guanzhong.
Qi Xuansu sat upright in front of the square table, his expression slightly stiff.
Bai Yongguan was sitting opposite him, with a copper pot placed between them. White mist rose, blocking their sight and covering their faces.
This is a hot pot, with red soup boiling and thin slices of meat floating in it.
Bai Yongguan was like an old gourmet, and his voice came from behind the white mist: "When eating hot pot in winter, mutton should be the best. Unfortunately, the temple does not reserve mutton, so we can only serve Deacon Qi with pork. I hope Deacon Qi doesn't want it." mind."
"It doesn't matter." Qi Xuansu calmed down, "I'm not particular about food. When I went to the Western Regions a few days ago, there was no human habitation in the vast Gobi. Apart from the 'March Pills', there was only cold hard dry food. I have long been used to it. , as long as it can satisfy your hunger.”
Bai Yongguan laughed, stretched out his chopsticks, picked out a very thin piece of meat from the copper pot, put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
On the left of Bai Yongguan is Li Zhen'er, the wife of the temple master, and on the right is his disciple Bai Yue.
At this time, Li Zhen'er's face was pale and her whole body was trembling slightly.
Bai Yue's face was expressionless, and he also picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and placed it in the bowl in front of him.
Qi Xuansu made no move.
Bai Yongguan swallowed the meat in his mouth and asked, "Why doesn't Deacon Qi eat it?"
Qi Xuansu lowered his eyes and said, "To be honest, before I came to Qingbai Temple, I had eaten at a restaurant in the city and I was really not hungry."
"That's it." Bai Yongguan narrowed his eyes, "It's always okay to eat less. No matter what, it's my wish."
Qi Xuansu couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only pick up the chopsticks in front of him and reach into the pot.
Just when Qi Xuansu looked at the white pieces of meat, he suddenly felt nauseated.
From just now to now, he has been thinking about how to leave Qingbai Temple.
Since Bai Yongguan is a fourth-grade wine-sacrifice Taoist priest, his cultivation level is at the lowest stage of returning to the true state, but it is not yet clear what inheritance he has.
If Bai Yongguan was a martial artist, then at such a close distance, Qi Xuansu would have little power to fight back. He had already suffered a loss when he faced Zhuge Yongming.
However, in Qi Xuansu's view, this possibility is unlikely, because the external manifestations of different inheritances are slightly different. The most notable feature of a martial artist is his strong blood energy. Sitting next to a martial artist, you will feel a faint feeling of heat. The higher the realm of martial arts, the more intense this burning feeling will be. It will not be until the stage of heaven and human that it gradually becomes restrained and finally returns to its original nature completely.
Qi Xuansu did not feel a similar burning sensation from Bai Yongguan, so he was not a martial artist who preferred Bai Yongguan.
Among the remaining inheritance, San people and banished immortals can also be excluded. Considering that Bai Yongguan was able to turn his disciple Lu Yu into a pig, we can roughly rule out the Qi Refiner, who should be an alchemist or a witch who is proficient in magic.
Alchemists and Wu Zhu have one thing in common, that is, without any defense, their bodies are very fragile and they can easily be seriously injured.
This is the reason why Qi Xuansu did not escape immediately. If he rashly escaped from Qingbai Temple and aroused Bai Yongguan's alert, he would completely lose the opportunity to sneak attack Bai Yongguan, and the long mountain road was enough for Bai Yongguan to catch up with him. In a head-on fight, no matter what Bai Yongguan's heritage is, Qi Xuansu is no match due to the huge gap in realm, and there is only a dead end.
As for now, Bai Yongguan should still be in the testing stage. After all, Qi Xuansu is a Taoist priest of Tiangang Hall. If he kills him rashly, it will definitely trigger an investigation by Tiangang Hall. Bai Yongguan, as a fourth-grade Taoist priest who has lost his power, cannot hide it at all. If he couldn't suppress it any longer, his only end would be to betray the Taoist sect and be hunted by Tiangang Hall and Beichen Hall, and he would be in constant panic all day long.
To take a step back, even if Qi Xuansu knew the inside story, the two of them could negotiate terms.
Therefore, Bai Yongguan would not directly kill anyone unless absolutely necessary.
However, for Qi Xuansu, the world is big and life is the most important. If his life is threatened, he will naturally save his life first. At the worst, he will leave the Taoist sect and become a member of the Qingping Society. In other words, Qi Xuansu doesn't mind taking the lead and striking first.
Qi Xuansu put the meat slices in a bowl and flipped them gently with chopsticks.
Bai Yongguan's eyes fell on Qi Xuansu through the white heat rising between the two.
At this moment, Li Zhener finally couldn't bear the depressing atmosphere and began to sob softly.
Bai Yongguan's eyes immediately turned to Li Zhen'er and said coldly: "Why are you crying? I told you that if you don't feel well, go and rest early. Don't let the guests see the joke."
Li Zhen'er was speechless and just shook her head.
Qi Xuansu breathed a sigh of relief and took over the conversation: "Fellow Daoist Li is a sixth-grade Taoist priest. He should be an innate person and has no fear of human diseases. How can he be uncomfortable? Are you injured? You really haven't been feeling well recently. Taiping, you still have to be careful.”
Li Zhen'er said in a very low voice: "Thank you... Deacon Qi is concerned. It's an old problem for many years. It's nothing serious. It will get better after a while."
Qi Xuansu nodded slightly, and a palm silently touched the gun holster on his waist.
Long before coming to Qingbai Temple, Qi Xuansu had already loaded a shot of "Dragon Eyes Yi Er" in case of emergency. At this time, it was actually used.
The power of "Dragon Eyes Yi Er" needs no introduction. Back in Fort Cimut, when faced with many criminals who were considered to be innate people, it was not necessary to make a sneak attack, but to fire from the front, and even kill them with one hit. You must know that the physical strength of these sinners is as strong as that of martial artists of the same level, but they are still unable to withstand them, which shows how powerful "Dragon Eye Yi Er" is.
In the case where Bai Yongguan did not use his protective powers or treasures, Qi Xuansu was very likely to use the "Dragon Eyes Yi Er" to severely injure Bai Yongguan, or even kill him with one blow.
But there is another variable, and that is Bai Yue, Bai Yongguan's disciple. Qi Xuansu doesn't know whether Bai Yue is Bai Yongguan's accomplice or an innocent person without knowing it.
Assuming that Bai Yue is Bai Yongguan's accomplice, although Bai Yue is only an eighth-grade Taoist priest, he should not be underestimated. Qi Xuansu can use various means to defeat the weak and the strong, so others can do the same.
Bai Yongguan seemed to be attracted by Li Zhen'er's attention, and ordered his disciple Bai Yue: "Yue'er, send your master wife back to her room."
"Yes, Master." Bai Yue stood up and came to Li Zhen'er's side, "Master, let's go."
Li Zhen'er glanced at Bai Yongguan, stood up slowly, and left the place with Bai Yue.
As a result, only Qi Xuansu and Bai Yongguan were left.
Qi Xuansu didn't have much expression on his face, but his whole body was tensed up, and he could pull out the "Dragon Hand Gun" from his waist at any time. This is a gun-drawing technique derived from the sword-drawing technique. It is not a sophisticated skill, but it is very practical.
Bai Yongguan didn't speak in a hurry, instead he put the side dishes into the pot slowly.
Qi Xuansu did not act rashly.
After Bai Yongguan finished placing the side dishes, he chuckled and was about to speak. At this moment, a loud noise came from the gate of the Taoist temple, making Bai Yongguan startled.
Qi Xuansu immediately seized this perfect opportunity and without hesitation kicked over the square table between the two of them. The copper pot, soup, dishes, side dishes, and the white meat in the pot flew up together, blocking the two of them. human sight.
When Qi Xuansu pulled out the "Dragon Hand Gun" from his waist, his thumb had already pressed down on the hammer. He didn't need to look for the target with his eyes, but directly moved towards the memory position and pulled the trigger.
A cloud of smoke and fire exploded from the magazine of the "Shenlong Hand Gun", and the "Dragon Eye Yi Er" rotated rapidly along the rifling in the gun tube and shot out.
Qi Xuansu did not go to see the results of this gun, but immediately left the position where he was standing, looked for a bunker, and loaded the second "Dragon Eyes Yi Er" at the same time.
The copper pot fell to the ground, and Bai Yongguan's figure was revealed. An expanding pool of blood appeared on his chest, but Bai Yongguan was far from dead, and it was not even seriously injured.
With a stern smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to hold the spot on his chest where he was shot, and said slowly: "As expected of an elite Taoist priest trained by Tiangang Hall, he is indeed different from ordinary Taoist priests."
Qi Xuansu hid behind a pillar outside the door, turned his head slightly and looked towards Bai Yongguan.
I saw faint golden light flowing all over Bai Yongguan Zhou's body. He happened to have seen this scene not long ago. In the battle at the ancient temple, the Wu Zhu woman who was severely injured by Zhang Yuelu had such magical powers, which was because of Wu Zhu's golden body.
Bai Yongguan turned out to be a shaman.
The strength of Wu Zhu is closely related to the amount of incense and wish power. Taoist temples in various places in Taoist sects reserve incense and wish power. The more incense the Taoist temple has, the more incense and wish power it has in reserve.
For Taoist sects, the power of incense and vows is similar to the royal court's tax money. Local Taoist temples will turn it over to the local Taoist government at the end of the year. In addition to reserving part of the power of incense and vows for spiritual officials, the local Taoist government will reserve all the rest. It is handed over to the ancestral court, and then distributed uniformly by the ancestral court, such as for the cultivation of witchcraft blessings inherited by some gods, or for training spiritual officials.
Although the incense in Qingbai Temple is very bleak, there should be some reserves of incense and will power. If Bai Yongguan directly uses this part of the incense and will power for his own use, then his combat power may be close to that of the banished immortal.
Bai Yongguan snorted coldly, and around him appeared a six-foot-tall Lei Bu Tianzun, wearing armor and holding two whips. Thunder light lingered around him, and the sound of thunder was faint.
Then I saw the Heavenly Master of the Thunder Department swiping the whip with his hands, and the pillar where Qi Xuansu was hiding was cut in half.
At the critical moment, Qi Xuansu rolled on the spot regardless of his appearance, and dodged the blow in embarrassment.
Bai Yongguan laughed: "Since Deacon Qi doesn't want to eat my pork, and presumably prefers mutton, how about I just turn you into a sheep?"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Yongguan stretched his finger towards Qi Xuansu.
This is the "Small Thirty-Six Tiangang Transformation Technique" of Wu Zhu's magical power, which can make the false appear real and use magical power to change reality. It is extremely mysterious. If you are an alchemist, you must become a heavenly being before you can practice. However, as long as the incense and wish power are sufficient, Wuzhu can also be used by innate people.
A very mysterious force fell on Qi Xuansu, trying to change Qi Xuansu's form.
At the same time, another force surged out of Qi Xuansu's body to resist this change. In the end, the two forces neutralized each other, causing Bai Yongguan to return without success.
Bai Yongguan was shocked at first, and then he looked happy: "Are you a person with a special physique? You really can't find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all!"
