Chapter 206 Gone with the Wind · Chapter 9 Raising Mortals in Captivity

The person sitting upright turned out to be Qian Jiexing's Lei Tianxiao. He opened his eyes suddenly, only to see Li Qiang standing in front of him with a smile, and the folding fan in his hand was beating on his palm.Since being defeated by Li Qiang, Lei Tianxiao has racked his brains to cultivate in crooked ways, and now he is at the early stage of distraction. Seeing Li Qiang appear, Lei Tianxiao couldn't help being both surprised and happy, he thought his chance for revenge had come.He said lightly: "Yes, it's very rare to see you again, please sit down! Haha! Please sit down!" His face showed an expression of excitement and anticipation.The two cultivators behind him stood quietly.

Li Qiang sat on the opposite side of Lei Tianxiao generously, and said with a smile: "Old Lei, what are those people doing in such a big scene downstairs? Could it be that they cheated a lot of hard workers again?" Situ Yong from Jiexing was sent to do hard labor in the black prison of Tanbangxing. He was deeply impressed by this experience. Both Nashan and Zhao Zhi's faces turned cold, and Nashan asked, "Who are they?" Jiang Weiguang, the magistrate of Hanlin City, wiped his sweat and said: "My lord, they are... are..." He suddenly realized that what these people said earlier must be lies, because the prince from the capital seems to know these people very well.

Nashan asked impatiently: "What is it? Tell me! Don't hesitate... Oh, did you do something wrong?" Li Qiang knocked on the table with his folding fan, and said, "Nashan, don't ask him, he won't know. With Lao Lei's methods, Jiang Zhifu is just a decoration. Lao Lei, am I right?" Lei Tianxiao grinned, his usual practice is that as long as he smiles, it means he wants to kill someone. Lei Tian smiled and said slowly: "Originally, I just wanted to take him away quietly, and I can come back later. Since you have seen through it, I will silence it if I can't say it. Oh, it's so strange, boy, why are you always in the dark?" Show up at the right time?"

Na Shan grinned, and said to Zhao Zhi: "Good guy, is he very powerful? How dare he talk to the boss like this...I really admire his grandma." Li Qiang also smiled: "Lao Lei, the first time I saw you was also in the Song Dynasty, and I was chased by you very badly. Well, when I saw you in the Gobi Desert, you ran away very quickly. , As for this time...hehe, you are very unlucky, not only do you have no chance to make a move, but even escape is impossible." Lei Tian laughed loudly: "Haha, do you think I'm still that bad? Boy, let me show you my strength!" He was extremely angry, and a sword light suddenly flew out.

Li Qiang raised the folding fan in his hand, and slapped it lightly like a fly, and Lei Tianxiao's flying sword fell down. Li Qiang said lightly: "You still haven't made any progress! Don't show this little thing out to shame people, change it to something else." The flying sword fell on the table, and the whole wine table collapsed without a sound, and the flying sword jumped on the ground like a live fish. Lei Tianxiao was frightened out of his wits, and cold sweat flowed down involuntarily.This flying sword was hit by Li Qiang's folding fan, and he couldn't drive it.He stared helplessly at the flying sword on the ground, but he couldn't take it back. Not to mention he had never seen this kind of strength, he had never even heard of it.

Li Qiang waved his folding fan leisurely, and said with a smile: "Old Lei, you are about to go mad, well, it's the result of your forced cultivation. Old Lei, what are you going to do by tricking these people?" Lei Tianxiao couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up abruptly, only to see Li Qiang folded his fan and said, "What are you in a hurry for? Sit down!" Lei Tianxiao felt a huge force pressing down on him, and his legs softened and sat down. He went back to the chair, but the seat couldn't bear the huge force, it shattered with a "click", Lei Tian sat down on the ground with a smile, his face flushed in embarrassment, and his whole body trembled with anger.

Li Qiang smiled and said, "Oh, Lao Lei, you are too modest, why are you sitting on the ground? By the way, you haven't answered my question yet." The two practitioners behind Lei Tianxiao were stunned, they took a step back without saying a word, they looked at each other, and suddenly flew upwards, trying to escape.Li Qiang had been guarding against them for a long time, he said in a leisurely manner: "I haven't finished my words, why are you running?" A faint golden light flashed, and the two of them fell down with a "bang" as if they had bumped into an iron wall.

Nashan laughed complacently: "You guys should be more honest, even our elders dare to fight the immortals, you are far behind." Lei Tianxiao and the three of them looked ashen. They didn't care what Nashan said, but Li Qiang's strength was too strong. Lei Tianxiao found sadly that the gap between himself and Li Qiang was vast, and he couldn't struggle at all.He still has a vicious magic weapon in his hand, but he dare not take it out to fight at all now.His eyes kept rolling, and after a while, he said: "These people are going to be sent to Qianjie Star, we lack mortals there."

Li Qiang asked: "Which group of people is this? Are they all from the Song Dynasty?" He was very surprised that the Song Dynasty didn't notice such a big thing, and these officials were too incompetent. Lei Tianxiao looked down at the messy fragments of the wine table in front of him, his flying sword was quietly inserted on the ground, shining with a faint green brilliance.He whispered: "Only this group of people, we just started... this..." He suddenly found that his surroundings were restricted, and he couldn't even move his fingers, and the fear in his heart surged like a tide.

After restraining the three of them, Li Qiang said, "Prefect Jiang..." Turning his head, Jiang Weiguang was already limp on the ground.When he heard Li Qiang calling himself, he hurriedly crawled forward, and stammered, "Big...big... my lord, I'm here." His fat face was covered with beads of sweat, The fat all over his body was trembling, and he was terrified. There are also some accompanying guests, masters, yamen servants and others kneeling on the ground, all of them look uneasy, and everyone's heart trembles.Li Qiang shook his head slightly, and asked: "Prefect Jiang, how many times has Lei Tianxiao been here? How many people have they taken away?"

Jiang Weiguang's plump body twisted uncomfortably, and said: "He...he has been here four times, except for the first time he didn't take anyone with him, and then he took seventy or eighty people away every time, saying that he was building some palace... ...they are all young and middle-aged men...he gave a lot of housing expenses..." He glanced at Li Qiang quietly, seeing Li Qiang's eyes were like knives, he panicked even more, his heart almost jumped out. Li Qiang said: "Family settlement fee? Prefect Jiang, ask your people to invite the two people below to come up. Na Shan and Zhao Zhi, you also go with them. Those two cultivators are not high-level. In addition, ask some laborers to come up." .” Nashan said enthusiastically: "Fatty, hurry up." Jiang Weiguang shook his hands and said: "Master Zhou, you go...you go." A guy who was about as fat as Jiang Zhifu took Nashan and Zhao Zhi downstairs.If Nashan hadn't grabbed his neck, Mr. Zhou might have rolled downstairs, his legs were limp. After a while, there was a commotion downstairs, and the sound of ping-pong-pong came up. Li Qiang asked indifferently: "How much did they pay for the settlement?" Jiang Zhifu knew that he couldn't hide it from Li Qiang, so he said tremblingly: "About five hundred taels of silver per person, this..." He couldn't continue because he had deducted from it. the vast majority. There was a sound on the stairs, and Nashan pushed the two cultivators who were sitting downstairs came up, Zhao Zhi and Master Zhou followed behind with a few laborers.Nashan said triumphantly: "These two boys dare to fight with me, hehe, it's a pity that they missed it." Li Qiang discovered that Nashan had used a strange magic weapon to completely seal the skills of the two cultivators.How did he know that when Nashan was in the Ancient Sword Academy, he often went to Fu Shan. Although this guy was a rough man, he was very good at flattering. Later, he became very familiar with Mr. Fu. The old man has many magic weapons and is generous. Dafang, Nashan really got a lot of good magic weapons, this forbidden invisible spell - Cankun set, was obtained from Fu Shan. Li Qiang's mentality now is very different from before. He actually doesn't care much about Lei Tianxiao's actions, but he always remembers Hou Pijing's words - to help the Song Dynasty, so he stretched out his hand to take care of this matter. matter.Li Qiang has not realized his current indifference. If he encountered this kind of thing when he first entered Tiantingxing, his thoughts would be completely different. Li Qiang asked the workers, "How much resettlement allowance have you received in total?" The workers knelt down and replied, "There are one hundred taels of silver." With a sound of "plop", Prefect Jiang fell to the ground and fainted from fright. Li Qiang signaled Zhao Zhi to go for treatment, and then asked, "What are you told to do? Do you know?" "My lord, he said that we are going to work as long-term workers. We have the opportunity to visit our house once a year and have a good income." Several workers said with satisfaction, this is a good opportunity for them. Li Qiang nodded and waved them away. After a moment of silence, Li Qiang looked at Jiang Weiguang who had woken up, and said: "Prefect Jiang, I have paid them back the settlement allowance, and sent them home immediately. Do you understand?" Prefect Jiang nodded repeatedly, still kneeling blankly Do not move.Li Qiang said: "Hurry up, what are you doing on the ground?" Jiang Zhifu walked downstairs with his men as if he was receiving an amnesty. Lei Tianxiao suddenly felt light on his body, he could finally move, but he didn't dare to move.He gritted his teeth and said, "What do you want?" He was not only angry, but also sad. Cold sweat ran down his forehead, and he felt that he had completely lost the determination to resist. Li Qiang said: "Tell me honestly, what will happen to these people from the old Song Dynasty after they are transferred to Qianjie Star?" Nashan murmured in his heart, he felt that the boss seemed to be different from before, and he couldn't tell what was different.He couldn't help but whispered: "Forget it, just destroy him, why tell him so much." Lei Tian smiled and said: "We just want to create another Fengyuan star, but we lack mortals as the foundation, so the Purple Immortal King ordered us to find people from various planets and move to Qianjie star. If you don't believe me, you can go to Qianjie star to see Look." This was beyond Li Qiang's expectation. He stared at Lei Tian and smiled, his voice suddenly filled with trembling fluctuations. He used a trick to deceive his mind: "Purple Immortal King? Is she the successor of the old man Baihuang? Then Situ What is Yong's status now?" Lei Tianxiao's eyes suddenly became dizzy, and he subconsciously said: "The old man Baihuang is gone... He, he handed over the leadership of Qianjiexing to the Purple Immortal King... Later, Situ Yong refused to accept it and brought a group of The subordinates have arrived in Tianhe, and now Qianjie Star has been divided into two parts, and the cultivators are attached to each other..." Li Qiang asked: "Who are you attached to?" Lei Tianxiao replied mechanically: "Purple Immortal King, she is better at talking than Situ Yong." There was a louder noise downstairs, Master Zhou ran upstairs in a panic, knelt down in front of Li Qiang and said, "The people downstairs don't want to go home, they have to follow...they go..." Li Qiang ignored him, and continued to ask Lei Tian with a smile: "How many people will die when these laborers pass by?" Lei Tian said with a blank smile: "This time it's different, we didn't intend to hurt anyone, they are mortals raised by Qianjie star ...So, nothing will happen to them." "Retaining mortals" is the most absurd thing Li Qiang has ever heard. He pondered for a moment, thinking: "This is not a bad thing, it's just relying on the means of cultivators to let mortals go to other planets to survive and multiply. More means that the foundation of the cultivation world is stronger." He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are they all voluntary?" Lei Tian said with a smile: "We don't care if they want to or not, as long as they receive the relocation fee, we must go." Li Qiang couldn't help smiling wryly, he wanted to kill Lei Tianxiao very much now, but he remembered Qingdi's words again - be restrained.Enduring and enduring, he raised his hand to block Lei Tianxiao's skill. Lei Tianxiao woke up suddenly. He found that his power had been imprisoned. He screamed in horror: "You...you kill me..." He has many enemies. After his power is imprisoned, if the enemies know , then he is dead. Li Qiang flicked his fingers, and a golden light penetrated into his open mouth. Immediately, he couldn't utter a single word, but kept yelling "ah" and "ah". Li Qiang sneered and said: "Kill you? Didn't it dirty my hands! You don't have to scream, and I don't bother with your messy things. Send me a message and tell the Purple Immortal King that I don't care if she moves mortals, but Don't hurt people, or I will go to Qianjiexing to settle accounts with her, understand? Get out!" The four cultivators nodded repeatedly, and it seemed that they were also terrified.The four of them helped Lei Tianxiao hurriedly downstairs, and left with the mortals in a panic. After a while, a group of people from Jiang Zhifu timidly walked upstairs, knelt on the ground obediently, and waited for Li Qiang's punishment. In fact, Li Qiang escaped a catastrophe just now, if he couldn't help but kill Lei Tianxiao, he would no longer be able to control his killing heart.He has always been very cautious, because of a reminder from Emperor Qing, he restrained the impulse in his heart. If the state of killing heart is broken by killing, he will completely lose himself, immersed in the pleasure of killing and unable to extricate himself. So this realm is also a difficulty in cultivating the heavenly recommendation. Li Qiang looked at the officials of the old Song Kingdom who were kneeling on the ground, and suddenly felt that the secular world was boring. He waved his hands in a dull expression and said, "Go back." Prefect Jiang boldly asked: "Excuse me, my lord's name, sir... this... that..." Li Qiang shook his head and said, "You better not know it, go back." Prefect Jiang's fat face was distorted, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, he looked around for help, like a helpless child.Li Qiang was angry and funny, he raised his hand and threw out a jade tablet, saying: "Since you must know, you can see for yourself." Jiang Zhifu took a look at the jade tablet, and with a "gudong", he fell to the ground again and passed out. Li Qiang stretched out his hand to grab it falsely, and the jade token flew back.He said lightly: "No prospect! Well, send Jiang Zhifu back to the government office, it's a disgrace!" The group of yamen servants and masters hurriedly carried Jiang Zhifu away. Although they didn't know who Li Qiang was, they could guess after seeing Jiang Zhifu's reaction. Li Qiang must be a big shot. The restaurant that was very lively just now is now deserted, the whole restaurant is empty, only a dozen guys are left standing there like puppets in a daze.The shopkeeper of the restaurant wanted to cry, but he was busy for a long time without seeing any money, and all the people in the restaurant ran away.Seeing Li Qiang coming downstairs, the shopkeeper of the restaurant couldn't help shouting: "My lord..." Nashan shouted: "What?" The shopkeeper of the restaurant knelt down with a "plop", and said pitifully, "Master, please spare me!" Li Qiang wondered: "What are you doing? We won't harm you." It was Zhao Zhi who was the first to understand. He dropped an ingot of gold and said, "Don't kneel, we will pay the bill." After he finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing: "Boss, look, the meal is not finished, but the bill is We paid, so if I come here a few more times, I will have no money, haha." Only then did Li Qiang understand what was going on, he became even more annoyed, and said, "Let's go." A circle of golden light flashed, and he teleported away with the two of them. The shopkeeper of the restaurant held the gold and was so happy that he didn't know what to do. Suddenly he saw the golden light flashing and the three of them disappeared. He was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a "plop" and passed out. Li Qiang took Nashan and Zhao Zhi directly to the Holy King's Mansion, and just after the golden light of the protective body dissipated, guards watching the night found them, and only heard a loud shout: "Who is it?" followed by a rush of gongs It sounded, and countless lanterns and torches were suddenly lit up all around. Nashan was full of praise: "These boys are quite alert, not bad! Boss, the guards of the Holy Palace should be rewarded, haha." A dark crowd surrounded him, but no one could get ten steps closer to Li Qiang.The headed guard was in shock, and his voice softened: "Who are you?" Li Qiang smiled and said, "He came to find someone." The guard was stunned, joking, and ran to the Shengwang Mansion in the middle of the night to find someone, never heard of such a thing.He asked again: "Who are you looking for... who are you?" Li Qiang raised his hand and shot out a jade badge of identity. The guard suddenly felt that there was something extra in his hand, and he opened his palm to look, and couldn't help shivering.I just heard Li Qiang say: "Do you know who I am now?" With a "plop", the guard knelt down and said loudly: "Zhang Lu, the foreman and third-class guard, welcome the prince back to the mansion." When the guards who surrounded him heard it, they all knelt down with a "hula". Recently, people often kneel in front of them, and Li Qiang gradually got used to it.He said: "Everyone get up and talk, has the Holy King returned to the mansion?" Zhang Lu said: "The Holy King went to do something, and he is not in the mansion now." Li Qiang asked, "What are you doing?" Zhang Lu said: "I don't know very well, I only heard that the Holy King needs to find some kind of elixir, and he has been away for a long time." Li Qiang understood, he nodded and said, "Did the Holy King say where to find it?" Zhang Lu rubbed his hands uneasily, and said with a little embarrassment: "The Holy King didn't tell us." Na Shan touched his bald head: "Does Mr. Hou still need to find any elixir? Isn't he already a Mahayana, why do you still need to look for that thing? Boss, it will be difficult to find him now." All the guards glared at him.You must know that the holy king is like a god in their minds, and Nashan's words are really disrespectful. Li Qiang pondered for a while, and said, "The Holy King must have gone far away." Zhao Zhi asked: "Are we going to find him?" Nashan clapped his hands and applauded: "Boss, that's great. I have too few places to go, so I happened to go out for a stroll. Haha, it would be great to learn a lot. Maybe I can meet Mr. Hou, how about it?" A group of guards were dumbfounded when they heard this, wondering why this guy was so rude to the prince.But because of Li Qiang, they didn't dare to scold Nashan, but they felt very awkward in their hearts. A guard said: "The chief executive of the palace is here." The chief supervisor was an eunuch in fifth-grade attire, an old man in his sixties, he hurried over and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, I have a message from the Holy King." Li Qiang flashed in front of him: "What message?" The chief steward said: "Fei You, the chief steward of the servant's palace, pays his respects to the prince." He bowed solemnly. Li Qiang smiled bitterly in his heart, and he said impatiently: "Okay, okay, how can there be so many courtesy, tell me quickly, what message?" Chief Manager Fei You said in a sharp voice: "Yes, the Holy Prince told the servants to tell the prince not to look for him deliberately, and we will meet again if there is fate." Li Qiang couldn't help sighing: "My brother has cultivated to the Mahayana after all, good! Good! Good!" He has decided not to look for the old brother specifically. Li Qiang said to the crowd: "You all go away, Manager Fei, arrange a place for me to live, besides, I will leave tomorrow, don't alarm the emperor." He didn't want to delay in the old Song country, since he couldn't find Hou Pijing , he planned to leave. The three of them meditated in the room all night, and the next morning, Li Qiang took Nashan and Zhao Zhi and quietly left the Shengwang Mansion. Standing on the street, Nashan stroked his bald head and said, "Boss, are you going back now?" He felt that he hadn't had enough fun, and finally returned to the Heavenly Court Star, and it seemed a pity to go back like this. Li Qiang walked slowly along the street, the early winter sun was warm on his body, and the street was quite lively with people coming and going, but Li Qiang felt that all this seemed far away from him, and he felt a sense of disgust in his heart.He patted his head hard, wondering what was going on?He has always liked crowded places, and his current state of mind even feels a little strange to him. In fact, Wu Qingtian's state of killing heart is affecting him. Being insensitive to everything is just the first step. Once Li Qiang loses his sense of everything around him, as long as he kills more than one mortal life, he will It is very difficult to surpass this state of killing heart. With the further growth of skill, it will be a matter of self-destruction sooner or later. It was the first time for Nashan and Zhao Zhi to see Li Qiang so taciturn. Nashan grabbed Zhao Zhi and said in a low voice, "Boss, what's wrong? I always feel that something is wrong... Uh, is he..." Zhao Zhi asked in a low voice: "What is it?" Nashan touched his bald head, he couldn't find the right words, he held back for a long time before blurting out: "It's like the feeling of losing my wife... Weird..." Before he finished speaking , Li Qiang had already been slapped on the head. "Nashan, what nonsense are you talking about!" Nashan was so scared that he shrank his neck and hid behind Zhao Zhi, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw the boss lose his temper, hehe, I feel very kind." Zhao Zhi couldn't help laughing and said, "You bastard again, talk nonsense." Although Li Qiang slapped Nashan, he was awakened by his words. He suddenly realized that this was the result of cultivating to the state of killing heart.He couldn't help but be grateful to Nashan in his heart. If he didn't pay attention, he would have a big problem. The process of cultivation this time was too fast, and he couldn't control himself. Li Qiang took a long breath and said with a smile: "Shopping, shopping, let's relax." While talking, there was a burst of noise in front of him, and pedestrians quickly surrounded him.Nashan said: "Boss, I'll go and have a look." He also ran over with the crowd.Li Qiang said with a smile: "Nashan still likes to watch the excitement so much." Suddenly, Na Shan yelled, "Boss, come quickly!" The crowd was dispersed with a bang. Li Qiang swayed to Nashan's side, and when he saw the person lying on the ground, he couldn't help but turn pale with shock.
