Chapter 12 The road is rough
As soon as he finished speaking, three poison needles were thrown at him at the same time. Pei Cangli dodged two of his poison needles by moving sideways. Seeing the third poison needle going straight towards the boy's back, Hongyu flew over quickly.
Suddenly, two screams were heard from behind. It turned out that the two poison needles had pierced his accomplice. The man in front of Pei Cangli saw it and wanted to rush over to save his accomplice, but unfortunately the poison took effect too quickly. Before he could rush over, his accomplice had fallen to the ground and died.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pei Cangli quickly threw out eight water arrows, nailing his limbs to the tree, and then ran towards Hongyu, who had just received a poison needle.
Pei Cangli asked in his sea of consciousness, "Hongyu, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?" Then he picked it up and checked it everywhere.
"Sister, don't worry, I'm fine. I'll use my fire to burn the poison needle."
"Daoyou, be careful!"
Hearing the boy's cry, I hugged Hongyu and rolled on the ground to avoid a flying knife.
"I originally wanted to give you a chance to live, but it's a pity that after all your limbs were nailed to the tree, you still wanted to kill people." As I said this, I threw a water arrow and shot it at his heart.
Watching the vitality in his eyes disappear bit by bit, Pei Cangli suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, both fearful and excited. After all, in the past thirty years, socialist civilization and harmonious education had been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
It was the first time Pei Cangli killed someone, and he felt a little scared. But when he thought that if he didn't kill him, he would have to kill himself, he felt excited that he had the ability to protect himself and kill him.
Since I have chosen the path of cultivating immortals, I am afraid that I will encounter more such situations in the future. As long as I stick to my original intention and do not kill innocent people, I think the laws of nature will allow it.
Pei Cangli picked up the storage bag of the gray-robed man I killed, walked up to the young man and said, "This man's storage bag belongs to me, and that man's storage bag belongs to you."
"I haven't thanked you for saving my life yet. Thank you for your help. I am Lin Yi from the Suzhu Sect. These two storage bags naturally belong to you. Without your help, I am afraid I would be the one who died."
"But you'd better take out your things and put them into your own storage bags. These two people are obviously from the Demon Gang. Their storage bags have the marks of their sects. If you keep them, you may get into trouble in the future. I haven't asked for your name yet? How old are you to have such strength?"
"You can just call me Pei Cangli. I'll be sixteen in two months. Fellow Daoist Lin, do you know where in Lintian City I can buy storage bags at the cheapest?"
Lin Yi understood what he meant, took out his storage bag, and said, "If you don't mind, Brother Pei, you can accept my storage bag first. The things inside are just a token of my appreciation. When my senior brother comes, I will repay you for saving my life."
Pei Cangli's face flushed, and he hurriedly explained, "Fellow Daoist Lin, I don't want your reward. I really don't have a storage bag to store my things, and I already have two storage bags. How can I have the nerve to ask for your reward again?"
After some explanation, Lin Yi finally understood that Pei Cangli really didn't have a storage bag, so he insisted on giving his storage bag to Pei Cangli, which also contained three bottles of pills, five mid-grade spirit stones and four hundred low-grade spirit stones.
Pei Cangli also learned that the Suzhu Sect where Lin Yi was located was currently ranked third in the entire cultivation world. He and his senior brother who was in the foundation-building stage went out to train together. After they finally finished the training, they walked near here.
When his senior brother received an urgent call from his junior sister in Lintian City, he asked his senior brother to fly over on a sword first. He had not reached the foundation-building stage and could not fly a sword, and he did not want to pay attention to his junior sister. There happened to be a second-level monster nearby, so he wanted to practice, but he ran into people from the Evil Demon Gang.
As for his junior sister, who was about to turn seventeen, she only had the cultivation level of the middle stage of Qi Refining, but unfortunately, it was all due to pills. Whenever she encountered problems, she would ask the master for help. But the sect master doted on this junior sister and ordered that whenever the junior sister was in danger, fellow disciples nearby must rush to rescue her.
His senior brother always felt that he was older and should take good care of his fellow junior brothers and sisters. He also treated the sect leader's orders as if they were imperial decrees. Whenever Liu You got into trouble, as long as his senior brother was nearby, he would always be the first to run over.
After hearing about their sect's affairs, Pei Cangli asked Lin Yi about some things in the cultivation world. Lin Yi said that if one wanted to quickly understand what had happened recently in the cultivation world, one could apply for a jade slip from the Liuli Pavilion in Lintian City.
If there are any major events happening in the world of cultivation every month, Liuli Pavilion will publish them on the jade slips, which are released once a month. The news is authentic and reliable. One only needs to pay one low-grade spirit stone each time to get the news of that month. One can also choose to pay two medium-grade spirit stones in one lump sum and receive a communication jade slip as a gift.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Lin, if I want to exchange things for money, where can I go to avoid being ripped off?"
"There are too many options. Yibao Pavilion, Zhenwufang, and Liuli Pavilion are all good. With your current strength, I suggest you go to Liuli Pavilion. First, you just happen to want to buy information. Second, Liuli Pavilion will do business with anyone, regardless of strength or business size."
This Liuli Pavilion is really good at doing business. It makes money from both the rich and the poor, and does not abandon any customer. I think the person behind this Liuli Pavilion must be very powerful and have a good background.
As they talked, they hurried on their way. Soon they walked out of the forest. From a distance, they saw someone flying towards them on a sword. Lin Yi took a step forward and waved, "Brother, I'm here."
Two people jumped down from the sword. The leader was Lin Yi's senior brother, dressed like a scholar with a long sword in his hand. Behind him followed a woman wearing a light pink dress and with pearls and jade on her head. The long sword in her hand was also inlaid with various gems, which made jingling sounds as she walked.
"Lin Yi, how can you get along with everyone? Where did this bumpkin come from? He is wearing a cassock skirt that was popular three years ago. Who wears that now?"
"Junior Sister Liu, do you think everyone is like you? You're almost seventeen, but you still only care about your clothes and appearance, acting like a butterfly all day long."
"Lin Yi, I am obviously older than you, you should call me Senior Sister."
"Didn't you ask the sect master to be the younger sister of this generation of disciples? I am fulfilling your wish."
"Brother, look at him. When we meet, he doesn't care about me, but speaks to outsiders instead."
"Pei Cangli is not an outsider, she is my savior."
"Lin Yi, what happened? Are you okay?" the senior brother asked with concern.
Lin Yi briefly recounted the process of rescuing him, and then talked about Pei Cangli's situation. Before he finished speaking, his junior sister started again.
"He is not only a bumpkin, but also a poor fellow. He doesn't even have a storage bag and has to rely on others for charity. There must be something hateful about a pitiful person."
"Liu You, you're going too far." Lin Yi and his senior brother said at the same time.
After hearing her words, Hongyu was about to jump up and spit fire, but Pei Cangli stopped her and held her in his arms to comfort her.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's just a few words from others, it's nothing, let her say whatever she wants, Cangcang, Hongyu, don't forget what I said, keep a low profile and keep calm."
"Brother, you take her away first. I will take Fellow Daoist Pei to visit Lintian City and will meet up with you later."
"I'm sorry, Brother Pei, my junior sister has been spoiled. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please accept my little gift." After saying that, his senior brother handed me a storage bag and left with his junior sister.
"Friend Lin, please help your brother put away the storage bag first. It's just a small matter. I don't mind."
"Friend Pei, it's your business if you don't mind, but Junior Sister was at fault in the first place, so just accept it. Otherwise, I won't have the face to associate with you anymore."
"Friend Lin, you also said that this is your sister's fault, not your brother's, so I won't accept this storage bag. If you insist on giving it to me, then we will be strangers from now on."
