The Yunxu vines twisted into a huge wooden rope, and slammed down towards the crowd. The spiritual power wrapped in the pale golden vines surged in, dazzling in the smoke and dust.

This accident happened unexpectedly, the people below had no time to escape, and they were hit hard.

"Damn!"

After a brief silence, the people from the nearby auction house came to their senses and manipulated the bloodline vines to roll towards Qi Zhao.At the same time, the surrounding spirit planters raised their hands together, and the vines formed a net above it, which was majestic.

But this is not enough.

Qi Zhao moved his fingers slightly, and the light spots in the sea of ​​consciousness flowed into the blood vessels, gathered to form a warmer light, and then slowly entered the spiritual plant behind him.

The veins were nourished, and the sleeping spiritual plant was awakened. Immediately, he realized that his master was in trouble. The branches and leaves trembled, and the luster of the wood body suddenly brightened, and the spiritual power was transferred back to the blood of the Lingzhi master.

The shopkeeper who came over after hearing the news shrank his pupils suddenly when he saw this scene. He couldn't figure it out, these plants and spiritual planters had clearly dissociated themselves from recognizing their masters, how could it be so?

Seeing the astonishment on his face, Qi Zhao lowered his eyes, thinking that some people are often really ignorant and ridiculous.

Lingzhi master and Lingzhi, especially those who have a relationship with the Lord, have a long relationship with each other. Their blood and life have been involved with each other, and they have traveled thousands of mountains and rivers together. How can they recognize the Lord together? Can it be determined by the contract?

Thinking of this, Qi Zhao smiled mockingly: "Come on, let's force him out."

The spiritual planters understood, and the spiritual power continued to flow out of the palms, and the light on the blood vines became more dazzling, and they pressed down invincibly.

Spirit plant masters have always been inferior to cultivators, but that was when there were no spirit plants around them, and now, behind them are dozens of plants, even if most of them are not high-ranking, it is not something ordinary people can stop.

What's more, there is Qi Zhao.

Lights were shining all around, and the originally magnificent auction hall was about to become ruins under the ravages of vegetation. Qi Zhao stood on the booth and watched, and soon, he heard Xie Shen speak heavily.

"coming."

At the same time as the ending sound fell, a black figure appeared from a distance. It was the old man. He walked slowly, covered in black smoke, and looked like a ghost who had just struggled out of hell.

The people below unconsciously made way for him, the old man took a few steps forward and then stood still, his eyes were cloudy and he looked up, his voice hoarse: "Mr.

Qi Zhao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It's your greed."

If it weren't for his lack of greed, he wouldn't be so easy to fall into the trap.

The old man understood the meaning of his words, squinted his eyes, and said with a sneer: "But this is still interesting. At the beginning, you were so easily hypnotized, and the old man was a little disappointed. It's so good."

Qi Zhao smiled noncommittally, obviously not taking his words seriously.

The old man's eyes darkened slightly, and he didn't speak any more. His dry hands stuck out from under the cloak, and a black mist gradually formed under his hands, filling the entire hall.

As the black mist spread, a translucent barrier appeared in the midair of the booth, becoming clearer and clearer, with a faint skull appearing on it.

Qi Zhao knew that this should be the enchantment that the old man said before.

Looking at the old man's appearance, he was not easy to deal with. Qi Zhao knew that he was too heavy, so naturally he would not try his best, so he stroked the leaves of the dragon's tooth grass in his arms.

Glancing at his movements, the old man's eyes showed a bit of disdain: "Mr. Qi is a young man who is arrogant after all. Is it possible that you think you and a plant of nine-story dragon tooth grass can stop me?"

Qi Zhao gave him a disdainful look: "Why don't you try?"

The old man has been respected by others for so many years, but now he is ridiculed by a kid, and there is no joy or anger on his face, but it is obvious that he can't maintain his indifference before.

At this time, the surrounding enchantment has been formed, and the skull printed on the top is black in color, ferocious and cold.And at the same time it was completed, the black mist gradually permeated deeper, and Qi Zhao felt that his spiritual power was continuously being sucked by the skull.

The same was true for the spiritual planters beside him, they couldn't help turning their heads to look at him, Qi Zhao took a step back unhurriedly, and then smiled at the old man.

The old man couldn't bear it any longer, his hands were hooked into claws, his skin was as dry as bark, covered with veins, his nails were also wrapped in thick mist, and he stabbed towards Qi Zhao.

He was very fast, Qi Zhao only saw a black shadow passing by, and the old man's hand was already close to his eyes.

The spirit planters exclaimed, and the grass and trees became even more anxious: "Be careful!"

The vines overwhelmingly pressed down from mid-air, wanting to protect Qi Zhao, the old man's hand moved carelessly, and the light of the skull on the barrier lit up, and the vines instantly lost their strength, fell to the ground and became entangled in a ball.

The old man stopped suddenly.

Floating in mid-air, he squinted his eyes at Qi Zhao: "Mr. Qi, this old man has a heart of cherishing talent. If you are still willing to use it for me, how about forgetting the past for what happened today?"

Qi Zhao smiled slightly: "Return it, I've never wanted to."

The old man's eyes sank, a laugh came from his throat, his hands were clenched into claws again, and Qi Zhao came towards him with lightning speed, this time his speed was faster than before, the person had already become an afterimage, at such a close distance It was the result of a one-shot kill at all, and Qi Zhao couldn't dodge it at all.

The pupils of the spiritual planters on the side shrank, and some timid ones had already closed their eyes. After a while, there was a loud noise in front of them, but they didn't smell a trace of blood.

Thunderous coercion appeared all around, turbulent and majestic, making people almost out of breath. Everyone raised their eyes and saw a black figure appearing out of thin air in front of Qi Zhao, with an ice-blue sword in his hand. stern.

It's Xie Shen.

Soon someone recognized him, and his tone was full of surprise: "Shocking Blue Sword, Xie Shen, Lord of Wanjing City?!"

The old man was also taken aback, and after he realized it, he smiled coldly: "What a Mr. Qi, what a Wanjing city lord, such a scheming, but I have underestimated you."

Qi Zhao was willing to have a few words with him before, but Xie Shen didn't have such patience, he flicked the blue sword in his hand, and slashed across the air.

The old man didn't have time to hide, the nails on his hands grew to ten inches in an instant, his hair was pitch black, and he went straight to meet him.

"Thorn-"

A flame appeared where the sword met the nail. After the flame dissipated, the old man took a step back, and his figure was unstable for a moment.

Xie Shen didn't give him a chance to buffer, the sword in his hand slashed down for the second time, the thunder on the sword was even stronger, the old man was close to each other, his calf sank three inches into the ground.The enchantment around the booth made a crisp sound similar to broken ceramics, and it cracked instantly.

The luster on the bloodline vines of the spiritual planters surged again, ready to go.

The old man knew he was invincible, but it was too late to escape, Xie Shen turned his wrist, and the Jinglan Sword in his hand was divided into more than a dozen pieces, piercing straight into the soil around his body, forming a cage, holding him tightly stuck in it.

The people who came to participate in the bidding and the auction house had been watching with bated breath. Seeing that the old man could not escape, knowing that he would be involved if he stayed, he turned around and wanted to escape. Before he reached the door, there was a rustle of wind behind him. The person was rolled up by the vines and fell heavily on the ground in front of the booth.

At the same time, the door of the auction house was forcibly broken open from the outside, and at the same time as the light penetrated, Lu Jianshui and Lu Zuobing walked in, behind them were Qimu Eleven Guards, and the people outside had been controlled by them stand up.

The noisy hall just now suddenly fell silent. The old man looked back, thinking about what had happened in these days, his eyes were gloomy: "It turned out to be the intention of the Lord of Qimu City."

Xie Shen looked at the old man expressionlessly, pointing the startling blue sword at his throat.

The old man laughed hoarsely, the laughter seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, it was difficult and ferocious: "What is the old man, He De, who can alarm the city lords of the two cities of Qimu Wanjing, it is not wronged, but..."

He raised his eyes, and the fog wrapped around his body became thicker at this moment, and he said hoarsely: "The old man has lived so many years longer than you, are you underestimating me? Think this will trap me ? Oh, it's ridiculous."

Qi Zhao was startled, Yunxu Tengmu immediately bound towards him, Xie Shen even swung the Jinglan sword in Xie Shen's hand, but it missed.

The old man's figure turned into a puff of smoke the moment the blade approached him, floating loosely into the air.

"Qi Zhao, everything is not over yet, you and I will wait and see, it's all luck."

A hoarse voice resounded around, echoing with the echo, making it even more eerie. At the end of the sound, the cloud of mist dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving no trace in the end.

There was silence all around.

The people in the auction house seemed to have lost all confidence, and they lowered their heads in a slump, their fingers tightly clenched.

Lu Jianshui frowned and pondered for a moment, and when he raised his head again, he turned to Qi Zhao and Xie Shen and cupped his hands: "Mr. Qi Xiao, Xie City Master, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

After finishing speaking, he smiled at the spiritual planters around Qi Zhao again: "Thank you for your hard work."

The spirit planters were flattered and hurriedly waved their hands: "No, no, it should be us thanking the city lord. If it weren't for you, we still don't know what would have happened."

The people on the side also nodded in agreement.

Lu Jianshui smiled, and gave instructions to the eleven guards behind him. The eleven guards understood, first escorted the people tied up in the corner to the dungeon of Qimu City, and then took Master Lingzhi to find a place to rest.

As soon as they left, there were only four people left in the same place.

Qi Zhao looked at Lu Jianshui: "The man ran away, this matter is still not settled, and he has been hiding his appearance, his identity is still a mystery, I am afraid there will be endless troubles."

"It's good enough. As for the rest, we can think about it at that point." Lu Jianshui is very free and easy, "I have sprinkled tracking wood powder on him just now, and the wood powder is ground from the leaves of my blood plants. His body will melt into his blood, and he cannot escape."

Qi Zhao nodded, according to the law, Lu Jianshui should also be of Shenmu blood, but since he entered Qimu City until now, he still doesn't know what his blood is.

But curiosity is curiosity, what is the blood of course, you can't ask, otherwise you will be cheating.

Qi Zhao withdrew his gaze, thinking about what Xia Lu Jianshui said just now. It was obvious that the lord of Qimu City wanted to eradicate the auction house for a long time, but at that time the auction house should have been fine.

Qi Zhao was a little puzzled: "Does the city lord have any dissatisfaction with the auction house?"

Lu Jianshui smiled and said nothing.

Lu Zuobing had no expression on his face: "I can't bear to keep doing secret deeds and not paying taxes."

Qi Zhao: "..."

Qi Zhao heard that the point should be not to pay taxes, and his mood suddenly became very complicated. He glanced at Lu Jianshui, who was standing there smiling, and raised his eyes after noticing Qi Zhao's gaze: "What's wrong?"

"……No."

The smile in Lu Jianshui's eyes was even bigger, he didn't continue to talk about it, and turned around: "Okay, this is not a place to talk, let's go back first, the Heavenly Capital Stone that I promised Mr. Qi before, I will give it to you when I go back. "

Lu Zuobing's eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his head.

Qi Zhao sighed in his heart that Lu Jianshui is really deep in the city, but he still responded on his face.

"Let's go."

……

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Jianshui got busy first. There were a lot of people in the dungeon. Some of them were indeed colluding secretly, but there were also some people who just got the green wood card and came to bid for it. They didn't know about the auction. What is the object has nothing to do with this matter.

How to distinguish is not an easy matter, so Xie Shen followed suit.

Qi Zhao originally planned to go for a walk with Xie Shen, but now he is alone and can only sit in the yard in a daze.Soon, footsteps sounded outside the yard, Qi Zhao habitually turned his head to look, it was Lu Zuobing.

Holding a rattan wooden box in his hand, he stepped forward and sat down beside Qi Zhao: "What are you thinking about?"

Qi Zhao sighed, and lay down on the stone table again.

Lu Zuobing obviously had something on his mind, he didn't care if he didn't get a reply after asking a question, he pursed his lips and put the rattan wooden box in his hand on the table: "This...is the Tiandu Stone."

Surprise flashed across Qi Zhao's eyes, and he straightened up instantly. Just as his fingers touched the edge of the box, Lu Zuobing suddenly reached out and pressed the box.

"What's wrong?" Qi Zhao looked over in doubt.

A bit of hesitation appeared in Lu Zuobing's eyes. After a moment of silence, he let go of his hand and said with lowered eyes, "...Forget it, you can take it."

Qi Zhao knew what he was thinking, put the box away and looked at him: "I will do what I promised you."

Lu Zuobing looked up.

Qi Zhao smiled: "What have you done with what I told you earlier?"

Lu Zuobing's usually calm face rarely showed emotion, he frowned: "During the half month when you were away, except for arranging the auction house, I would find an excuse to go to my brother's room at other times, what I could say and do I did everything I could, but my elder brother still treats me as usual."

Qi Zhao shook his head and picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

Lu Zuobing tilted his head, looked straight at Qi Zhao with black and white eyes, and said, "Qi Zhao, I can't wait, I want to try the last method."

Qi Zhao was caught off guard and choked on the tea: "What did you say?"

Lu Zuobing's eyes were serious: "Brother knows me too well. If I do it myself, he can easily find out, and others can't get close to him, but he believes you. I have prepared the medicine. You can give it to him at dinner." , the rest is my business.”

After speaking, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "You have already got what you want, and you don't think you will stay in Qimu City for long, if you hesitate... I'm afraid I will be too late."

It has to be said that Lu Jianshui knew Lu Zuobing very well, and his current thoughts coincided with the last step Lu Jianshui wrote on the rice paper.

"...Have you thought about it?"

"Think about it."

Lu Zuobing nodded, his eyes full of determination.

Seeing him walking step by step towards the gentle situation set up by Lu Jianshui, he didn't realize that the latter had sinister intentions. As an accomplice, while Qi Zhao felt ashamed of Lu Zuobing, he seemed to see his former self.

So he couldn't help but sighed again: "Okay, I'll help you."

Lu Zuobing's eyes lit up, and he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom: "This is the medicine, you use one... no, just two."

He raised his head, and his voice suddenly became serious: "Qi Zhao, please."

Qi Zhao smiled: "Don't worry."

Lu Jianshui's expression slowed down a little, he turned his head to look out of the courtyard, he didn't know what he thought of, for a long time, he lowered his eyes and smiled.

Especially nice.

……

In the evening, Lu Jianshui and Xie Shen returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Lu Jianshui still had some things to do, so he went back to the study first, and Lu Zuobing followed.

Qi Zhao tugged at Xie Shen's sleeve and went back to the room, and told him the whole thing that Lu Zuobing told him in the afternoon. After hearing what he said, Xie Shen nodded lightly: "It should have been like this a long time ago, there is no need to suffer."

Qi Zhao was very worried, and took out the small porcelain bottle given by Lu Zuobing from his arms, and asked, "Do I really want to decoct two medicines for Lu?"

"Lu Jianshui's cultivation base is not shallow, and he can bear it."

"I know." Qi Zhao became even more worried, "I'm afraid that Lu Zuobing won't be able to bear it."

He has already seen the ingredients of the medicine in the small porcelain bottle. Albizia Julibrissin and Chunxiaomu are made with Fengyue grass. Simply put, they are pure plants without water, and the effect will definitely be excellent.

It's no wonder that Lu Zuobing can bear it.

Xie Shen smiled softly: "It's nothing."

"How can there be nothing, it will hurt."

Hearing this, Xie Shen twitched his eyes: "Did I hurt you back then?"

"That's not true, it's quite comfortable—" Qi Zhao unconsciously followed his words, and realized after speaking half a sentence, the tips of his ears turned red immediately, and then said, "That's because I'm good at adapting, Lu Zuobing just saw it I'm afraid it won't work for someone who was spoiled and brought up."

Xie Shen's eyes were full of jokes, he didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile.

Qi Zhao looked at him very promisingly at first, but he was defeated within three seconds and said in a low voice, "Okay."

Xie Shen smiled, stretched out his hand and stroked the fluff on the top of his hair: "Everyone has his own destiny, don't worry."

Qi Zhao narrowed his eyes comfortably: "Okay."

He always looked very strange when he nodded in response, making people's hearts soften involuntarily when they saw him, especially Xie Shen, the tenderness in his eyes was about to overflow for a while.

Qi Zhao raised his head and took a look, then felt embarrassed, avoided his sight in embarrassment, and said in a panic: "Okay, it's time for dinner, Lu Jianshui and Lu Zuobing should already be in the front hall, let's go too."

The little fool with red ears was soft and lovable.

Xie Shen took a step forward, hooked his fingers lightly, and smiled slowly.

lobby.

When Qi Zhao and Xie Shen pushed the door and went in, Lu Jianshui and Lu Zuobing were already inside.

Seeing them coming in, Lu Jianshui smiled slightly: "Come on, sit down."

Qi Zhao nodded, and sat down with Xie Shen. Opposite him was Lu Zuobing, who was wearing a moon-white robe today, sitting there expressionlessly, with the corners of his lips tightly pursed, obviously nervous.

Compared with Lu Jianshui on the side, it is clear at a glance which is higher and which is lower.

[The acting skills of the female costume boss are not good, not to mention Lu Jianshui, even passers-by who don't know anything about it will find something is wrong when they watch it. 】

Qi Zhao nodded in agreement, and exchanged glances with Lu Jianshui, the corner of the latter's lips curled up, his eyes gleaming.

Soon, the people from the City Lord's Mansion brought in the food.

Qi Zhao glanced at the dishes, and found that the dishes were good. He picked up the chopsticks happily, but before he could eat them in the bowl, someone kicked his ankle suddenly.

He looked up, and Lu Zuobing was sitting opposite him, looking at him with urging eyes.

Qi Zhao knew that he would definitely not be able to finish this meal, so he sighed inwardly, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, Lu Jianshui's fingers paused, and then relieved his strength, the chopsticks on his fingertips fell to the ground in an instant.

He bent down to pick up the chopsticks, Qi Zhao quickly picked up two pills from the small porcelain bottle and threw them into his soup bowl, the pills melted instantly when heated, and Lu Jianshui happened to get up, Lu Zuobing glanced at him to see that his expression was normal, Only then did I feel relieved.

Lu Jianshui is also a superb actor, as if he didn't know anything, he picked up the bowl of soup while talking to them, it was very natural, and he didn't deliberately exaggerate at all.

At the end, he did not forget to smile and said, "It tastes good."

Seeing that there was only one bottom left in his soup bowl, the heat in Lu Zuobing's eyes flickered, and he lowered his head again, but the corner of his eyes remained motionless and only looked at Lu Jianshui.

Soon, Lu Jianshui's complexion gradually turned red, and his eyes became foggy. Lu Zuobing noticed it, and immediately raised his head, urging Qi Zhao with his eyes, you can go.

It would be hateful to stay any longer at such a time, Qi Zhao looked at the food in his bowl which he had hardly touched, and stood up helplessly.Before leaving the door, he looked back, Lu Zuobing had already hugged Lu Jianshui, his eyes were full of tenderness and joy, Lu Jianshui let him hold him, those glazed eyes were covered with fog, In the depths, it is sober.

Qi Zhao couldn't help but looked at Lu Zuobing sympathetically, then shook his head and turned around, closing the door by the way.

It was already dark outside, and the night was heavy.

Xie Shen's heart was full of guilt towards Lu Zuobing, the corners of his eyes drooped, seeing this, Xie Shen smiled: "Let's go."

"Ok?"

"Take you to eat."

It is also very considerate.

Qi Zhao smiled with his eyes bent, the little annoyances in his heart vanished in an instant, he stepped forward happily and grabbed Xie Shen's sleeve: "After eating, I still want to go to Lihua Street."

Xie Shen naturally wouldn't refuse, so he said yes in a low voice.

The two held hands together and walked out side by side.

There is a gentle breeze behind, and the bright moon is gentle.

……

Because they went out for a long time the night before, and they didn't have anything to worry about, Qi Zhao and Xie Shen slept until noon the next day, and then slowly got up.

The two talked for a while after washing, Qi Zhao took out the Tiandu Stone, intending to find a suitable place to reshape Qin Xiu's body, when the door was pushed open when passing by the front hall, Lu Jianshui walked out slowly, pregnant He was holding Lu Zuobing in his arms, and he was still asleep.

Afraid of disturbing Lu Zuobing, Qi Zhao lowered his voice: "The Great City Lord."

Lu Jianshui smiled satisfied, greeted them, and said: "He is tired, I will take him back first, and Mr. Qi will come along with me. I said earlier that after the auction house is over, there will be no one except Tiandu Stone. There is still something to give you, and now is the time to promise."

Qi Zhao nodded, followed him into the courtyard, and waited quietly.Soon, Lu Jianshui came out, holding a dark gray brocade box in his hand.

He handed it to Qi Zhao: "Mr. Qi, keep it."

Qi Zhao thanked him, opened the brocade box and took a look, inside was a small brown branch, which had never appeared in the illustrated book.

Qi Zhao couldn't tell what kind of grass or tree branch it was for a while, so he reached out his hand curiously to touch it, and it was cold for a while, and he habitually accumulated spiritual power to cover it, just as he probed, a mechanical sound suddenly rang in his ear.

After the voice fell, the Shenmu scroll slowly unfolded in front of him.After the 梼杌 Sacred Tree and the Phoenix Sacred Tree, the third totem gradually lights up. The vegetation on it is gray all over, the branches and leaves are segmented at the end, and the lower left corner is engraved with small gold characters of assassination.
