Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 121 Hong Fan

"you you..."

The boy was so anxious that his face turned red.

Li Zhi said as if it was a matter of course: "It's just that I hunted it with my friend, so it's naturally mine!"

The boy was stunned, his mind seemed to be unable to process for a moment, he murmured: "Hunting?"

Li Zhi stopped teasing him and told him directly, "I hunted that water dragon. I don't know what deep hatred you have with it, but it has nothing to do with me. I am in a good mood now. Since you are just an ordinary person, I will not bother with you. Be more cautious in the future."

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he turned back to the body of the water dragon.

He originally planned to command the five little ghosts to continue carrying the child forward, but he found that the young man was still blocking the road and refused to move away.

Li Zhi frowned, a look of displeasure appeared on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Why? If you want to pester me again and again, don't blame me for being rude."

The young man's face was no longer filled with hatred, but with fear. He knelt on the ground and said, "Please teach me magic, Immortal. I am willing to serve you like a slave for the rest of my life!"

Li Zhi's eyes widened in astonishment, and he immediately said, "Why would I want you to work like a cow or a horse? If I need a cow or a horse, can't I just go buy one? Why would I bother to teach you magic?"

This kid is really wishful thinking. He thinks he can learn magic by working like a slave?

How could it be such a good thing? A pretty young maid in her teens only cost ten taels of silver!

And Li Zhi naturally knew that he would definitely seek revenge after he had mastered the magic.

Just based on this point, it is impossible for him to learn magic from Li Zhi. The person who can release the water dragon is definitely not a simple person, that is a heavenly demon! Not a small loach!

Li Zhi didn't want to get himself involved.

When Lu Sheng heard Li Zhi's refusal, he looked anxious, but he was not very good at speaking, and he knew that he had nothing that could impress this expert who could hunt water dragons.

After being stunned for a while, Lu Sheng seemed to have been drained of all his strength and sat down on the ground in despair.

Li Zhi ignored Lu Sheng and instructed the five ghosts to move forward.

He didn't want to offend an unknown cultivator for the sake of a mortal who was of no benefit to him. Even if it was just a possibility, Li Zhi was not willing to take the risk.

Lu Sheng stared blankly at Li Zhi's gradually receding back, his eyes full of unwillingness. When Li Zhi's figure had completely disappeared from his sight, he could not help but let out a low growl.

The unwillingness in his eyes finally turned into determination at this moment. He suddenly got up from the ground and chased in the direction Li Zhi left.

Faith will move mountains to open!

This is what he heard from an old teacher in a private school when he was a child.

He remembered what the old man said, which meant that as long as there was enough sincerity and effort, difficulties would be overcome!

So he planned to use his sincerity to impress the master!

Lu Sheng made up his mind. No matter what happened, even if Li Zhi wanted to beat him, drive him away or even kill him, he would stick to Li Zhi and beg him to teach him magic!

Fortunately, Li Zhi left first, otherwise if he knew that this man was mentally ill, he might have stabbed him to death here with just one finger.

However, just when Lu Sheng had run a few steps, a dog barking suddenly sounded beside him.

Lu Sheng subconsciously turned his head to look.

He saw a black shadow passing over his head, and then Lu Sheng's headless body fell to the ground.

 …

Li Zhi traveled quickly all the way without any delay and finally arrived at the small temple where he and Master Liu were temporarily staying.

This small temple has been abandoned for some years. It is surrounded by weeds and the walls look dilapidated.

But at least the roof was still very solid and after Li Zhi repaired the few leaks, it was still a good temporary residence.

After Li Zhi got off the water dragon, he asked the five little ghosts to throw the water dragon's body aside.

When he was about to enter the small temple, he suddenly thought of something, then stopped and began to regulate his breathing. As the energy in his body surged, his originally pale face gradually turned the same color as that of an ordinary person, and the few strands of silver hair on his temples gradually turned black.

Li Zhi sighed quietly. He knew that these were just illusions he created with the Qi in his body. In fact, his vitality was damaged to the root. There was no way it could be healed so easily.

He did this simply because he didn't want to be noticed by Master Liu.

After doing all this, Li Zhicai slowly stood up and walked towards the small temple.

"Master! I'm back."

Li Zhi looked around but did not see Master Liu.

"Where are the people? Where did they go?"

Li Zhi muttered to himself as he slowly walked out of the small temple.

He secretly thought that if Master Liu was not here, he would have to deal with the water dragon himself. After all, there were many treasures hidden in the water dragon! If he didn't deal with it as soon as possible, he was afraid that these good things would be lost in vain.

This water dragon is no ordinary monster. Apart from its most valuable heart, its other scales, bone marrow, blood, etc. are also treasures. It's a pity that all of the water dragon's blood had drained away while it was lying in the lake.

I just don't know how many small fish and shrimps in that small lake will have the chance to grow into monsters after absorbing the water dragon's blood.

While thinking about things, Li Zhi called out five ghosts and instructed the five little ghosts to help him. Li Zhi quickly started to dismember the water dragon.

As time went by, Li Zhi finally completed the dismemberment of the water dragon.

He looked at the bloody scene in front of him with satisfaction. This was the result of his labor. He put the water dragon's heart into a jar he had prepared in advance.

Li Zhi gave some of the less valuable meat and internal organs to the five hard-working kids to eat.

It can also be regarded as compensation for their hard work.

He put away the remaining rare and valuable items separately.

Li Zhi also intercepted a portion of it and used it in combination with other herbs to refine pills to replenish his damaged foundation.

 …

"Are you stopping me here on purpose?"

A man wearing the uniform of the Night Patrol looked at Master Liu in front of him and said in a deep voice.

Master Liu seemed to recognize the person in front of him. He laughed and said to the man, "I want to ask you, Master Hong, something."

Hong Fan frowned and said, "I'm hunting down a wanted criminal. What you're doing is obstruction of justice. If you really want to make a fuss, I can arrest you and put you in the Night Tour Prison for a while."

Immortal Master Liu didn't care at all. He said, "It's inappropriate for old friends to say this."

Hong Fan frowned and looked at Master Liu, then said, "Did you steal the peaches? How come you still look like a ghost when you were young after not seeing you for so many years?"

Master Liu waved his hand without saying anything more. He just took out a small bottle from his arms and threw it to Hong Fan.

Hong Fan took it and opened the small bottle without any doubt.

A surge of demonic energy rushed towards him, Hong Fan's pupils shrank, and he quickly covered the small bottle.

He looked at Master Liu with a look of surprise and doubt and said, "What are you doing? Have you committed any crime to bribe me with such a big gift?"

He seemed a little bit unbelieving as he spoke. He carefully opened the bottle a little, then put his nose close to it and smelled it.

He nodded secretly. This was obviously the essence and blood of a great monster whose Taoism was so profound that he could become a monster king at any time.

Although Hong Fan didn't know how Master Liu got this thing, it was extremely precious and he was ready to default on his debt. Even if he couldn't do what Master Liu asked him to do, he would never return this bottle of essence and blood to him.

Naturally, Master Liu also knew how precious this essence and blood was, and he had prepared it specially for Li Zhi, because he had long known that his fellow practitioners' magic would overwhelm Li Zhi, so he specially prepared this amount of essence and blood for Li Zhi, which was enough to make up for Li Zhi's loss.

However, he did not expect that Li Zhi would practice the Five Internal Organs Meridian by accident, which made the bottle of Demon King's blood that he prepared unusable.

But it's worth exchanging it with Hong Fan now.

Master Liu looked at Hong Fan and said, "I will use this bottle of the demon king's blood to make a promise to you..."
