Chapter 813 Skyfire Gang
Chapter 813 Skyfire Gang
When Gui Qi spoke of the second half, his tone was indignant and his fists clenched. He thought of how he boasted about his martial arts prowess, but after he encountered difficulties in martial arts, he gradually became alienated from martial arts, and as a result, he had made no progress in decades and could hardly protect himself, let alone help his master Zhang Mo.
The bonfire was bright. It was a hot summer day, but in the mountains and forests, once night fell, the air was filled with moisture, making it very cool and chilly. Li Changxiao broke off a branch and threw it into the fire to keep it burning.
Li Changxiao continued to ask about Guimen Qi. Guiqi told Li Changxiao that Guimen Liuzi had invited Guiqi to their mansion for a banquet on the pretext of celebrating his birthday some time ago.
Gui Qi did not suspect anything and went there as he said. As a result, he was secretly attacked by others and poisoned. Perhaps thinking that Gui Qi would not live long, the six ghosts talked about everything and revealed a corner of the secret. Gui Qi then learned that in two months, countless heroes would gather in a big city in a hundred continents to hold a grand demon-chasing meeting. After drinking and eating meat, the heroes would go to fight the demon.
Because the Demon Fighting Conference was quite grand, people from all over the world came. This situation was secretly led by Zhang Mo's disciples. However, most of the attendees did not know the details.
At that time, the six ghosts will list Zhang Mo's crimes in front of all the heroes in the world to strengthen their determination to fight against the devil. Therefore, Wu Dao Gui Qi scolded the six people for "disrespecting their teacher and destroying their ancestors" and said they were unworthy of being human.
The Demon Fighting Conference was getting bigger and bigger, and it was getting closer. Li Changxiao planned to join in the fun.
……
The next morning.
Li Changxiao woke up, thanked Night Ghost Seven, and left at night. He did not dare to stay with Li Changxiao for long, as being with a king is like being with a tiger. It was not because he was afraid that Li Changxiao would kill him in his sleep, but because he was afraid that Li Changxiao's breath would take away his lifelong martial arts cultivation, and he would end up like the Six Ghosts.
Li Changxiao covered the bonfire with mud, stomped it down, and rushed to a nearby city to buy a geographical map. As he was short of money, he had no money to buy wine after buying the map. Li Changxiao was entangled for a while, but he still felt that business was more important, so he reluctantly gave up and drank less.
I bought a map and took a quick look. I found that if I could catch a caravan, I could reach the "Hundred Continents City" in half a month at the fastest. There were still several months before the Demon Fighting Conference, so why rush?
As the saying goes, people get tired of the old and love the new. After looking at this geographical map once, it was like a pretty girl after a love affair. No matter how pretty she is, she will always feel boring in a short time, and she will regret it. But the money has been spent, and it is difficult to return it. Li Changxiao thought about it and decided to find some work first, earn a few taels of money, and then travel leisurely.
The demon-fighting conference was huge, and except for feeling sad for Zhang Mo at the beginning, Li Changxiao soon returned to normal. In fact, he had expected this day to come when he met Zhang Mo's disciple "Qing Chunhua" at the inn.
Humans are the most complex creatures, and the road to martial arts is doomed to be bumpy. On the contrary, because of this incident, I learned about Zhang Mo's news and there is a high probability that I will be able to meet her again. I feel very excited and happy.
I just wonder if Zhang Mo will fall into the hands of those disciples again. Li Changxiao thought, Zhang Mo's fate is full of great disasters and great fortunes. Great disasters and great fortunes go hand in hand. Some things cannot be avoided by being cautious and alert. No matter how strong a warrior is, he cannot break free from the vortex between fortune and disaster. Not to mention warriors, even cultivators cannot do it.
It is said that people become smarter as they get older. A hundred years old is considered old for ordinary people, and two or three hundred years old is considered old for warriors. In terms of age alone, Li Changxiao is very old. But he spends half of his life sleeping. He thinks that his age should be reduced by half, so that he can no longer be considered old. Although he is not old, he has become smart and has many ways to make money. But they all require thinking. In comparison, guarding the house for others, standing outside the door, slowly killing time, and when the time is up, there will be money, which is what Li Changxiao prefers.
But this place is not like Dayu City. After guarding the house for more than a month, he earned less than one tael of money. Li Changxiao bought a few taels of good wine, filled the wine gourd hanging from his waist, and rushed to Baizhou City.
The noise of the demon-chasing meeting was much louder than expected. When Li Changxiao was on the road, he heard many warriors discussing it. The name of the great demon Zhang Mo had spread all over the world. Li Changxiao never paid attention to rumors. Hearing the warriors on the road cursing Zhang Mo, no matter how bad the curse was, he did not defend his old friend, nor did he get angry for his old friend. Instead, he listened with interest to how they framed Zhang Mo.
After walking four or five miles, a carriage passed by. Seeing that Li Changxiao was traveling alone and heading east, the carriage owner guessed that Li Changxiao was going to fight the devil, so he stopped the carriage and talked to him for a few words.
Unexpectedly, they got along quite well, and the carriage owner suddenly felt that "it was a pity that we had met too late", so he invited Li Changxiao to go with him and give him a ride. In this way, the rest of the journey became easier.
On the eighth day, the carriage drove into Baizhou City. The magnificence of this city could be compared with that of Dayu Xingbang City. Xingbang City was prosperous in Tianji Dao, while Baizhou City was prosperous in Wudao. There were martial arts schools and sects everywhere, and martial artists and other practitioners who wanted to prolong their lives could be seen everywhere. People in their twenties, thirties, and even two hundred years old were everywhere.
The owner of the carriage was a "Guest of the Skyfire Gang" named "Zhou Baizheng". He was very decent and he introduced Li Changxiao to the Skyfire Gang, arranged a place for him to stay, and arranged food for him. His hospitality was impeccable. Li Changxiao thought that he had just met someone by chance, but he had met a famous martial arts master.
On the second day, Zhou Baizheng introduced Li Changxiao to the leader of the Skyfire Gang. The leader was about 200 years old, looked middle-aged, with piercing eyes that seemed to be spitting fire. His attainments in martial arts were so profound that others were astonished.
Li Changxiao was flattering and eloquent. He was born with a handsome face and a good mouth. He said different things to different people. If you didn't naturally dislike him and look down on him, it would be difficult to be hostile to him.
The leader of the Skyfire Gang is named "Qiu Lie". He just looks down on handsome young men, so he dislikes Li Changxiao. However, due to Zhou Baizheng's face, he did not show it and instead greeted him with a smile.
Li Changxiao saw it himself. Zhihao didn't care. He was broad-minded. Apart from revenge, he never took many things to heart, whether others respected him, hated him, or were angry with him. He had been cultivating the Tao for a long time, and his "mortal heart" had never changed. The many rules of "the fusion body cannot be insulted", "the refining void cannot be insulted", "the Yuanying cannot be insulted"... did not work for him at all.
In his eyes, cultivation is cultivation, and mortals are mortals. He is just a mortal with tremendous cultivation. He is no different from a mortal who has studied a great knowledge.
