Chapter 25: Mountain climbing, paper figurines?

According to She Quanyi's reminder, Zhou Qing bought a mask and a face shield, but he did not buy drugs to avoid poison.

Because the effect of Qingsi Gu in avoiding poison is better than most drugs.

Even if the drug can be used to cure the poison that Qingsi Gu cannot cure, he cannot afford it.

After buying the mask and face shield, Zhou Qing did not go home immediately, but went to a blacksmith shop west of Changle Lane.

Before entering the shop, he heard the sound of tinsel coming from inside.

Entering the door of Heji Blacksmith Shop, a wave of hot air hit his face.

Two men, one old and one young, were standing in front of the furnace with bare chests, hammering a knife blank.

When the young man saw Zhou Qing coming in, he nodded to him and continued to focus on the work in his hands.

Zhou Qing was not in a hurry, so he stood aside and waited.

After a long time, the knife blank was forged. The young man wiped his sweaty head and face with a towel, took out a small cloth bag from behind the counter and handed it to Zhou Qing.

"Ah Qing, I made this according to your request. After repeated tests, the effective range is about 20 steps. If it is not done well, please bear with me."

"Thank you, Brother He." Zhou Qing clasped his fists and saluted, then took out a small piece of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the man's hand.

The man shook it gently and showed a bright smile on his face.

"Ah Qing, you can still find me for similar work in the future. I won't charge you if it is not done well."

"Of course. Brother He, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Zhou Qing put away the cloth bag.

"Goodbye." The man sent Zhou Qing out.

Zhou Qing returned home and just entered the yard, he heard the sound of a loom coming from the main house.

It was the old lady reeling silk.

Zhou Qing opened the silkworm room and took out the cloth bag from his arms.

In the cloth bag, there was a copper tube about seven or eight inches long, a small piece of copper, and three iron clusters of similar length, with a small groove under the arrowhead.

Zhou Qing put the iron arrow into the copper tube, compressed the spring inside the copper tube, and blocked the slot with a copper sheet.

Then, he tied the copper tube to his left wrist, let his arm hang naturally, and his sleeve immediately covered the copper tube completely.

Whoosh!

Zhou Qing suddenly stretched out his left hand, pinched the copper sheet with his middle finger, and an iron arrow shot out.

Duh!

The iron arrow hit the wooden window seven or eight meters away, and a small part of the arrowhead pierced into the wood.

Zhou Qing walked forward, reinstalled the iron arrow, and shot several more times.

"The speed is OK, the power is average, but it's enough."

Zhou Qing nodded secretly.

This is a simple sleeve arrow that he spent one penny to ask He Ji Blacksmith Shop to make.

Speaking of which, Zhou Qing knew the man in the martial arts hall, but he didn't break through after practicing for three months, so he gave up and went home to inherit the blacksmith shop.

Since Zhou Qing had a good reputation, the two of them were acquaintances, so Zhou Qing accepted Zhou Qing's commission and made this sleeve arrow.

In fact, there is a magic weapon shop in the town that can forge various sophisticated weapons, including this sleeve arrow.

But Zhou Qing didn't have that much money.

The sleeve arrow made by He Ji's blacksmith shop was good quality and cheap.

Zhou Qing didn't need this sleeve arrow to cause much damage to the enemy, as long as it could scratch the skin.

Unless it reaches the stage of tendon training, the defense of other parts of the body of a warrior is not much stronger than that of a normal person except for the parts of the body that are specially trained.

Zhou Qing put away the sleeve arrow, came to the corner against the wall, took out a clay jar from the bottom of a wooden cabinet, and soaked three iron clusters in the poison in the clay jar.

After all, spreading lime is a low-level trick, and the attack range is limited. Unless the eyes are blinded, the lethality is very weak.

As for spreading poison powder, Zhou Qing doesn't have the capital.

After Zhou Qing broke through the Leather Refining Realm, in addition to his greatly increased strength, his reaction speed also improved a lot.

Unless he was careless, even if someone threw lime at close range, he would most likely be able to react.

He didn't think other Leather Refining Realm warriors would be worse than him.

Before the White Cloud Palm Method was poisoned, it was not strong in the same level of martial arts.

The sleeve arrows were much more advanced than lime to sneak attack.

After all, warriors are mortals. If they were poisoned, they would not only be knocked down directly, but also paralyzed and their reactions would be slowed down.

Of course, everything was just an extra insurance.

If he could practice peacefully, he didn't want to conflict with anyone.

Time quickly came to the evening of the next day.

Zhou Qing walked to the foot of the Black Wind Mountain with a basket on his back and entered the Mulberry Picking Village.

She Quanyi, carrying a longbow and a cloth bag on his waist, stood at the entrance of the village waiting for Zhou Qing.

The two saw each other from a distance, just nodded at each other, and then went up the mountain one after another.

When they reached the middle of the mountain, fog and bright yellow miasma gradually appeared in front of them.

It was bright when they came here, but now the dense forest was getting darker and darker, as if the sun was about to set.

After the two met at the edge of the fog, She Quanyi took out a map made of unknown leather from his arms.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing looked up at the scenery at the treetops very consciously.

"Ah Qing, it's okay, let's look together. If you get lost later, you have to remember the way to get out."

She Quanyi was very impressed with Zhou Qing's approach and brought the map over.

"Thank you." Zhou Qing looked at it carefully.

In front of him was a relatively rough hand-painted map, in which seven locations were circled with bright red paint.

"Here, here! And here! They are all dangerous areas, absolutely can't get close, you must follow me closely later."

She Quanyi pointed to several places on the map with a solemn expression.

"I understand. After entering the mountain, everything will be at your discretion." Zhou Qing nodded.

As the green silk Gu continued to grow, his toxin resistance became stronger and stronger, and after breaking through the skin barrier, he went into the mountains to test it.

Before, he could only stay in the miasma for half a quarter of an hour, but now he can stay for two quarters of an hour without any obvious discomfort.

"Let's go." She Quanyi put away the map, put on the face mask and mask, and walked into the fog with only a pair of eyes exposed.

Zhou Qing followed closely behind.

She Quanyi swerved in the fog with low visibility. After a while, the fog quickly faded.

What caught Zhou Qing's eyes was a mass grave surrounded by large willow trees.

At this time, gusts of mountain wind blew by, and the grass and trees swayed in the wind, making a "swishing" sound like a wave. Zhou Qing felt chilled in his heart and got goosebumps all over his body.

"Uncle She, let's leave quickly." Zhou Qing felt that this place was a bit eerie.

"Wait a minute." She Quanyi untied the cloth bag around her waist and took out a large wad of paper money.

"Ah Qing, come and help me get out."

She Quanyi handed a wad of paper money to Zhou Qing, and then threw the paper money on the mass grave.

While he was throwing money away, he was mumbling: "No offense, don't be offended. No offense, don't be offended."

After scattering the paper money, She Quanyi took Zhou Qing's hand and ran towards the place where the fog gathered again ahead.

rustle

After the two left, the mountain wind in the mass grave became stronger and stronger, like an invisible hand rolling up the paper money scattered on the ground.

Passing through the fog, a bright yellow miasma gradually appeared nearby.

She Quanyi circled a few more times, and soon, steps leading up to the mountain appeared in front of the two of them.

"Found it! It should be here!"

She Quanyi breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the stone steps.

"Aqing, there should be the Jiuxian Temple up here. Let's go up quickly and try to get down as soon as possible."

With that said, She Quanyi quickly walked up the steps.

Zhou Qing also followed closely.

"Ahem!" A few wisps of thin miasma drifted over from time to time, and She Quanyi covered her mouth and nose and made an uncomfortable cough.

After climbing hundreds of steps, a dilapidated temple appeared in front of them.

On the plaque on the door, you can only vaguely see the word "wine".

"First go to the temple to offer incense." She Quanyi took out the incense sticks from the cloth bag, removed the broken incense sticks, took out three incense sticks of the same length, lit them and handed them to Zhou Qing.

"My great-grandfather told me that when I encounter ghosts and gods, I must stay away from them and never take offense."

With that said, She Quanyi lit three more incense sticks, held the incense sticks with both hands, raised them to the center of his eyebrows, and slowly walked into the temple.

Zhou Qing followed suit. Although he didn't believe it, his attitude was correct.

Entering the Jiuxian Temple, you can see that the doors and windows all around have long been decayed, the statues are broken and dusty, and the bronze incense burner has long been rusted.

"My descendant She Quanyi passed by here to pay homage to the Grand Marshal of the Jiu Xian and ask for his blessings." She Quanyi respectfully offered incense.

"The younger generation Zhou Qing passed by here to worship the Grand Marshal of the Jiu Immortal and ask for his blessings." Zhou Qing also learned from She Quanyi in offering incense.

At this time, the graceful smoke cloud slowly rose and floated towards the face of the statue.

Zhou Qing had just finished putting on the incense and took a few steps back when he suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing past him and felt a chill on the back of his neck.

"Pfft!!" Qingsi Gu warned, asking him to look behind him.

Zhou Qing turned around sharply.

On the window to the left of the door, a pale face was revealed, with strange blush on both cheeks.

When their eyes met, Zhou Qing's heart filled with laughter.

Suddenly, the man at the door ran to the right of the door, and his side as thin as a piece of paper was revealed.

paper man? !

Zhou Qing's pupils suddenly dilated, and his heart seemed to skip a beat.

The next second, the laughter ringing in his heart turned into a scream.

The paper man ignited spontaneously and disappeared in a flash.
