Chapter 7: Out of the Village
Chapter 7: Out of the Village
In the room, while Qin Yi was packing things, the mace was leaning against the wall. Liu Su watched the busy Qin Yi and asked the question leisurely.
Qin Yi said casually, “Isn’t it just what you want? Didn’t you keep saying that this herb is not enough, and that the furnace is not good enough, all just to fool me to go out?”
“Hehe.” Liu Su sneered, “I want you to go out for a wider outlook and resources, not to get involved in battles, especially with the high-ranking State Preceptor. You really won’t know how you will die with your current state.”
“So?” Qin Yi stopped packing up and said coldly, “If Dong Huazi sends someone to bury the so-called beastkin transformation miasma again, what should we do by then? If there is a first time, there will be a second time. If the source is not eliminated, how can there be peace? In the past, I can’t get close to the State Preceptor, but this time, I can just take advantage of the Li Family’s siblings. It might be the best way once and for all.”
Liu Su said indifferently, “Since you’ve already left, why do you bother about this place? To be honest, it’s better for someone to destroy this village, then you’ll have nothing to worry about from now on.”
Qin Yi squinted at the mace, thinking about stuffing and rolling it into the gutter behind the house.
Liu Su immediately sensed his ill intentions, and it hurriedly said, “Okay, okay, even if you want to avenge the original owner of this body to have a clear mind, you have to kill the enemy. Otherwise, you will probably be possessed by a mind demon while cultivating to be an immortal.”
“Enemy? Then I think he might want to kill you even more.” Qin Yi glared at the mace.
Liu Su laughed awkwardly, “He was dying at that time. It didn’t count as me murdering him. It was you who ruined my good deed, so why are you angry at me?”
Then you still want to possess me? Qin Yi didn’t bother to deal with it, turned around and continued to pack things up.
There are a lot of miscellaneous medicines that I have refined these days to gain experience. I probably won’t refine them anymore. Although they seem useless, I should bring them with me. Maybe they can be useful sometimes…
Turning around, he opened the hidden compartment next to the bed, and there were some silver taels and a blue leather secret manual inside. The secret manual had no name. It was something that the original owner of the body had. Qin Yi called it ‘nameless secret manual’.
Originally, Qin Yi thought that the original owner of this body had practiced until he was in his teens, but he didn’t seem to have any reputation. So, it should be a low level secret manual? But he found that the texture of this book was very strange, just like the ‘indestructible by water, fire and knife’ written in many martial arts novels. Such material should not record low level skills. It could only be as Liu Su guessed, the original master did not gain success in practicing it or the foundation of this set of skills was difficult.
Martial arts also had a future in this world. Like Li Qinglin, even ordinary immortal cultivators might not be able to defeat him, let alone have opportunities to develop in other ways. Now that Qin Yi did not dare to learn from Liu Su to cultivate immortal for the time being, practicing martial arts was the best way to protect himself. Anyway, practicing martial arts while holding a mace feels a bit matching…
Liu Su also did not contempt other cultivation methods aside from cultivating immortal. In fact, it perhaps had the same idea by teaching him to prepare the medicinal materials needed for body training and the mace skills.
1 person had been in the same room with 1 mace for more than 2 months, and their respective secrets could not be known to outsiders. No matter what reservations and guards they had about each other, they could be regarded as the closest people in this world, although this kind of intimacy was a bit unusual.
…………
When they left, the Li Family’s siblings walked with their horses, and Qin Yi who had no horse walked beside them.
“I will buy a horse for Brother Qin as soon as we leave.” Li Qinglin apologized, “I didn’t think thoroughly before I came here.”
Qin Yi asked a little strangely, “I think you must be rich and powerful people. No ordinary people can fight against the State Preceptor. You 2 brothers go out just like this without even a guard. Aren’t you afraid if anything happens?”
Li Qinglin smiled, “My family is a little different. We always encourage children to train and face the storm.”
Qin Yi glanced at Li Qingjun, “What if your brother fell into my trap by mistake while trying to mess up with me last night ?”
Li Qingjun was furious and wanted to refute, but she remembered that if Qin Yi really wanted to kill her yesterday, she might really be dead. If he wanted to do something else, perhaps it would be even worse… So she was so aggrieved that her pretty face turned red.
Li Qinglin looked at her younger sister’s expression in surprise. At first, he thought that Qin Yi was definitely taught a lesson by her younger sister. Now, looking at her appearance, it turned out that her younger sister really suffered a disadvantage last night. Qin Yi seems to be just training his physique. How did he do it?
Maybe the taoist really has some ways.
As thoughts turned in Li Qinglin’s mind, he just smiled and said, “Even if Qingjun was killed by Brother Qin last night, I can only blame my poor skills. Of course, I will kill Brother Qin to avenge my sister.” After a pause, he added, “Also, Qingjun is a woman. There is no need to hide it from Brother Qin now… Maybe Brother Qin has already known it.”
Li Qingjun snorted and turned her head away.
Qin Yi shook his head, “Your family is really… weird.”
While talking, some villagers greeted Qin Yi when they saw him going out, “Little Qin, are you going out to play? When will you be back?”
Qin Yi pointed to the luggage on the horse’s back, “I plan to explore outside.”
As soon as he said these words, a group of villagers put down what they were doing and surrounded them.
“Do you really want to leave the village?”
“It’s a pity. I even plan to betroth my Little Peach Blossom to you…”
“What’s good out there…”
“It’s good to leave the village, it’s good to leave the village. So, do I still have to pay back the 4 copper coins I owe you?”
Qin Yi burst into a cold sweat.
“Move move!” An old man squeezed into the crowd, knocking the everyone’s head with a pipe, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
As he spoke, his old eyes scrutinized the Li Family’s brother and sister with a look of distrust, “Have you thought about it? The people in the city are wicked and ruthless. Don’t be sold by them and even count the money for them.”
Li Qinglin smiled and did not refute. Qin Yi could only say, “Don’t worry, Uncle Xu. I know what I’m doing.”
The old man smoked the pipe a few puffs and heaved a sigh of relief, “It’s fine if you have thought about it. You’re so young and educated. There is… there is no one to take care of at home. What’s the point of huddling in the mountains all day long? Go out and explore the world.”
So there was a lot of chatter, “That’s right, I said a long time ago that Little Qin shouldn’t live in a ravine…”
“If you’re tired after going out for some time, come back anytime. My Little Peach Blossom will be waiting for you for a few years…”
“We will keep your yard for you. We will break whoever’s leg who dares to occupy it!”
Li Qinglin’s smile became a little meaningful. From what they saw and heard along the way, almost everyone intentionally brought clues to Qin Yi. It was obvious that some people deliberately wanted to let outsiders discover Qin Yi’s extraordinariness, so as to lead him out of the mountain.
This place is very interesting. Qin Yi, who deliberately attracts outsiders to look for immortals, and the villagers who deliberately attract outsiders to pay attention to Qin Yi, have different thinking angles, but they both have their own plans.
Is it because Qin Yi has a bad social relationship in the village that people want to drive him away? Li Qinglin didn’t think so. Maybe there are other reasons.
Qin Yi also felt that it was very strange. The original owner of this body obviously had different temperament than me, but the villagers almost didn’t see the difference at all. Aren’t they too innocent that it’s unreal?
He didn’t think much. He folded his hands and bowed, “Thank you for taking care of me for many years. Immortal Track Village is my home. If Qin Yi is free, I will come back to visit you. After Little Peach Blossom is married, keep Little Little Peach Blossom for me in the future.”
The crowd was furious, “Get out! Shame on you!?”
In the turmoil, Uncle Xu said again, “Why do you still come back? If you do well, don’t come back. If you don’t do well, you will always have a bite to eat when you come back.”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and brought an old horse from the side, “This horse will not be alive for long. You ride it out. I hope you don’t ride it back again. Go go go!”
A horse was still a horse even if it was not going to live for a long time. Uncle Xu usually treasured it, but now he gave it away easily.
Qin Yi took a deep breath and didn’t say any more. He bowed and knelt to the ground, then he got on the horse.
Li Qinglin took a last meaningful look at the little village, and he also got on the horse with his sister. The 3 horses walked out of the village slowly facing the rising sun.
.
“I haven’t asked Brother Li yet, where is our destination?”
“South Li Kingdom, Li Fire City.”
A person who had a destiny of immortality but refused to be immortal. A person who wanted to seek immortality, and a person who did not believe in immortality at all. They all left the mountain village where there was a legend that there might be immortals and stepped into the world of mortals.
