Chapter 176: A Strange Study
Chapter 176: A Strange Study
"Once you are in the arena, you really have no choice."
Looking at the system interface in front of him, Chu Qing sighed softly.
After killing Master Mei, he went to interrogate Die Wu, and then the Evil Mirror came to his door, and Cao Qiupu was poisoned... and finally came to the Yin-Yang Forest.
Things keep happening one after another, leaving no room for respite.
Only at this point did I have the chance to unbox it.
"I just don't know what kind of martial arts will be revealed after killing Master Mei..."
Thinking about it in my mind, I chose to open it.
But the next moment, Chu Qing felt a little regretful:
"Oh no...I forgot to wash my hands!"
[Open successfully, obtain the rare knowledge: Heaven and earth are eclipsed! ]
Chu Qing was stunned for a moment. A strange learning? The world was eclipsed?
He still remembered that when he completed the Killing Order mission in Tianji Valley, he had the opportunity to choose a "Strange Learning" treasure chest.
At that time, he had hesitated, not knowing what would come out of the 'Strange Treasure Box'.
But I didn't expect that I would learn such a rare knowledge from Master Mei.
When I was wondering what kind of unique knowledge this [Heaven and Earth Lost Color] was, information as thin as clouds and smoke flooded into my mind.
This piece of information is not much, covering a method of releasing the inner form outwardly, which makes the world pale in comparison.
Qi flows inside and strength is exerted outside!
You can use your inner strength to influence the surrounding environment!
"It turned out to be it!"
After Chu Qing comprehended this unique knowledge, he suddenly felt enlightened.
Suddenly opened his eyes:
"Which Taoist skill is this?"
Once this power is activated, the surrounding heaven and earth lose their original colors, and the five senses of people within the range become paralyzed and weakened, and their thinking becomes sluggish.
Everything around became extremely slow, almost still!
“For an assassin, this is definitely a magical skill!
“Although we may not be able to trap a top expert, if the target is surrounded by heavy protection, it will not be difficult to take his head from a crowd of thousands. Even if he flies away, these people will have a hard time doing anything!”
Chu Qing's expression was a little strange for a moment.
This martial art is not a timely help to him, but it is also a good icing on the cake.
"Perhaps, I can use this to create another vest?"
Trina blinked.
The standard equipment of the Night Emperor is black clothes, white mask, fast sword and flying knives.
The Third Young Master's standard equipment is swordsmanship, body skills, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and the Sky Frost Fist.
Han San has the Dragon Claw Hand, Tai Chi Swordsmanship and the Immortal Golden Body.
Although during these changes in vests, Chu Qing couldn't help but use some martial arts that the vests themselves shouldn't use.
For example, when he used Han San's alias, he used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms in Dingxing City and Niejingtai Branch.
But no one saw that.
Afterwards even the bodies were destroyed, so there was no way to investigate and there was no need to worry about being exposed.
Now I have acquired a very interesting "strange knowledge".
"Are you just using this as an excuse to create another account?
"Or should we add something to a certain vest?"
Chu Qing touched his chin, a little hesitant, but this itself was not an important matter.
This system of his will eventually allow him to come up with a variety of new tricks, so he doesn't have to worry about running out of new tricks.
The only thing that made him feel a little regretful was that this Tiandi Fascination technique only had the method of 'inner and outer', and did not include the key points of practice and the original inner strength.
Otherwise, his internal strength would surely take a big step forward.
"If you want to improve your inner strength, you have to take on new tasks... Whether it's a killing order or an unnamed one, the chances of obtaining one are higher than ordinary tasks.
"It's really unreliable to rely on these random martial arts treasure chests to open internal skills."
Chu Qing stood up and felt that his copycat system was a huge treasure trove of all kinds of martial arts.
Every time a random martial art is unlocked, you get to choose one from these treasures.
Its size is too large, and the probability of drawing the martial arts you want is really too small.
Only those commissions that allow him to choose multiple options can give him the highest probability of getting the martial arts he wants.
“But after Mingyu Gong, I haven’t opened a pure inner power treasure chest for a long time.
"This thing is really too rare."
Thinking of this, Chu Qing glanced at Tie Chuqing who was lying on the side.
With a flick of his fingers, he untied her acupoints.
Tie Chuqing opened his eyes dazedly and looked around:
"What is this place?"
"In a remote place in the mountains, there was a farmer who was not good-looking and no one wanted him. I spent ten taels of silver to sell you to him as his wife.
"Pack up your things and go out to meet your parents-in-law."
Chu Qing opened his mouth and spoke.
Tie Chuqing widened her eyes and almost believed it.
But when he looked around carefully, he could only smell the fragrance of medicine in the air. There were also bookshelves all around, filled with books and bamboo slips.
It can be seen that this is definitely not the residence of a farmer.
He immediately said angrily:
"You lied to me again!?"
"…What do you mean again?"
Chu Qing shook his head and opened the door.
Gentlely looked back at him:
"All right?"
Chu Qing nodded:
"How's it going over there?"
"No movement."
Gentle said:
"The person inside is performing acupuncture. It smells very complicated. I'm afraid it won't be over in a short time."
Chu Qing nodded, looked at the sky, and since it was still early before nightfall, he came and sat down next to Wenrou.
This fenced courtyard in the Yin-Yang Forest also has a name.
It is called 'Yin Yang Lu'.
It sounds a bit weird. If you replace the word "Lu" with "Lu", it will be a bit scary.
Tie Chuqing also came out, and the three of them sat in a row on the steps in front of the door.
However, the young lady's eyes were confused until she saw Miss Lingfei waiting anxiously not far away. Then she was startled and asked Chu Qing in a low voice:
"How did you get involved with this woman?
"Have you rebelled?"
“…What did you say?”
Chu Qing rolled his eyes when he heard this:
"Can't you tell? That's Cao Qiupu's mistress, right?"
"mistress!?"
Tie Chuqing's eyes lit up:
"Cao Qiupu, the White Horse and Golden Sword, is such a famous person, but he actually found a female assassin as his mistress?
"Is it so exciting?"
As soon as these words came out, Miss Lingfei turned around and looked at her.
Tie Chuqing's neck shrank... If there was any trauma this girl had, it was definitely the fact that she was almost killed outside Luochen Villa.
Then she watched Miss Lingfei walking towards her.
He immediately jumped up and hid behind Chu Qing:
“She’s coming, she’s coming!!”
Miss Lingfei stood three meters away from Chu Qing and clasped her fists slightly:
"I haven't thanked the Third Young Master for saving my life yet."
"It's not a life-saving grace."
Chu Qing waved his hand:
"It just happened to be the right time, and since I have an old relationship with him, there's no way I'd just stand by and watch him die.
"If we can really turn danger into safety this time, it is also Cao Qiupu's destiny."
In order to save people, Yin Yang Monk needed to use the [Thirteen Blood Spirit Needles]. However, one of the thirteen silver needles was lost, but it happened to be obtained by Chu Qing.
This is such a coincidence that even novels wouldn't dare to write about it.
But reality is often stranger than fiction, which is not a big deal.
Miss Lingfei had a complicated look on her face and said softly:
"Whether he lives or dies this time, the Third Young Master has done us a great favor. From now on, if he is ordered to do something, we will do our best."
"That's going too far."
Chu Qing glanced at her:
"Since when did you start being hunted by the Evil Mirror Platform?"
"…soon after we left Luochen Villa." We originally wanted to find a place to live in seclusion and never get involved in the gossip of the world again.
"It's just that the evil mirror is not going to let me go."
When Miss Lingfei said this, her eyes were quite calm, and it was obvious that she had expected this.
After all, it is reasonable that Nie Jingtai will not easily let go of a master who is on the list.
The look she gave Chu Qing was sometimes quite complicated.
The main reason was that Nie Jingtai had promised her at that time.
After investigating the person behind the fake Nie Jingtai, she was promised to leave Nie Jingtai.
But this matter was ruined by Chu Qing.
However, no matter how complicated it is, there is no resentment. After all, how credible are the words of Nie Jingtai?
Chu Qing nodded:
“The power of the Niejingtai is huge and extraordinary.
"You two, are you planning on running away like this?"
Miss Lingfei's eyes were slightly confused, and she said softly:
"Qiupu and I had planned to escape for as long as we could. If we could escape from the sight of the Evil Mirror Platform, we would find a place full of reeds to live in seclusion.
"But now it seems... it seems that I will never find it."
Because I don’t know when I can escape.
Whether it’s Miss Lingfei or Cao Qiupu.
They are all good players in the world.
But facing the endless and varied pursuit by the Mirror of Evil, it was okay at the beginning, but after a long time, it was inevitable that there would be omissions.
Not to mention that I was plotted against this time, even if this incident had not happened, who can guarantee that I would be safe and sound forever?
Experts are experts...but they are also human.
As a human being, you will have problems.
After living in the open air day and night, it is inevitable that there will be times when things are not going well.
Not to mention a cold, just eating an upset stomach, or not getting enough rest or being in a bad mental state...all these will make it difficult to exert the power of martial arts.
The people at Niejingtai can take turns to rest in three shifts, but there are always people chasing them.
If they get hurt once, all kinds of bad things will follow.
With constant wasting time, they will eventually end up in a situation where they are doomed to die.
This was almost an escape.
Chu Qing rubbed his palms:
"Have you ever thought of fighting back?"
Miss Lingfei was stunned:
"Fight back?"
“If you are constantly being hunted, you will die sooner or later.
"You are an expert, you should understand what it means to defend for too long and then lose.
“If you want to rest easy, you should solve the source of the problem…nip it in the bud and prevent it from happening.”
Chu Qing raised his eyes and looked at Miss Lingfei:
"You've been at the Evil Mirror for so many years, and you don't have any close friends? Are they useful?"
"This……"
Miss Lingfei was stunned, as if she had never thought about this question.
Chu Qing sighed. This woman and Cao Qiupu were obviously in love. They just wandered around the world in love every day and were constantly persecuted by the evil mirror.
I never thought about getting a revenge version with strong men and women.
I didn't even think about fighting back...
“As a master on the Zhuxie List, you have been in the Niejingtai for many years. Even if you have no intention of making friends, you should have some knowledge of some things in the Niejingtai.
"Have you ever thought about using what you have to turn the tables on the Evil Mirror?"
Chu Qing looked at this woman and felt a little disappointed with her.
They were all assassins, and they were thinking about how to kill Nie Jingtai every day.
How come this woman only knew how to date Cao Qiupu?
"But...if we fight back, there will definitely be a bigger counterattack, right?"
When Miss Lingfei said this, she didn't even realize that she was lacking in confidence.
Chu Qing became even angrier:
"What if they counterattack? If they don't counterattack, won't we just chase them down?
"At this point, is there still room for reconciliation between you and the Evil Mirror Platform?"
Miss Lingfei thought about it for a while and felt that what Chu Qing said made sense:
"There is really no room for maneuver... If the Evil Mirror wants to kill someone, they will hunt him down to the end.
"The two of us are already on the kill list of the Evil Mirror.
"It's a life-and-death struggle between us."
When Tie Chuqing heard this, he pricked up his ears and poked his head out:
"So you're not a killer anymore."
"I……"
Miss Lingfei looked at the little girl who almost died in her hands, with a complicated expression:
"I won't do it anymore..."
"Then you won't kill me?"
Tie Chuqing asked again.
Chu Qing waved his hand:
"Go away, we are educating people, don't make trouble."
Tie Chuqing huddled aside, feeling aggrieved, and muttered in a low voice:
"What's so great about that? I'm still the eldest daughter of the Iron Blood Hall. Please be polite when speaking to me."
"What did you say?"
Chu Qing looked back at her.
"The weather is really nice today."
Tie Chuqing looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and talked about something else.
Chu Qing was too lazy to argue with her, so he continued:
"You know yourself that the fight between you and Niejingtai is a life-and-death one, and it is absolutely impossible for the two sides to coexist peacefully.
"Under these circumstances, if you don't use the information you have as soon as possible to counter the Evil Mirror Platform.
"Inflict a little damage on them, and then the things you have won't be enough to hurt them."
"But...but Cao Qiupu and I are alone and powerless..."
Miss Lingfei was still a little hesitant.
"Take advantage of the situation!"
Chu Qing clapped his hands:
“Let’s not talk about you, a famous master on the list. After all, the title of killer doesn’t sound very good.
"Just talking about the famous name of White Horse and Golden Sword, as long as you join a force, you can use that force to fight against the Evil Mirror Platform.
“Although the Niejingtai is a huge force that covers the entire world.
“But they can’t invade a certain area on a large scale!
"If you have a powerful force to protect you, one day you will be able to strengthen yourself and even counterattack the Evil Mirror Platform!"
Miss Lingfei felt a little confused after listening to this.
These contents are gradually crowding out her love brain and forcing a revenge book into her mind.
She frowned:
"But, can this be done?"
"Why not?"
Chu Qing sneered:
"The Niejingtai is just a killer organization, do you really think they can run rampant?
"There are countless people in this world who wish day and night that everyone on the evil mirror stage would die.
"If you can find these people, they can all join you to fight against the evil mirror platform!"
“It seems to make sense!!”
Chu Qing's words completely opened a new door for Miss Lingfei.
But there is a difficulty:
"But which big tree should we look for?"
She looked at Chu Qing, her eyes full of seeking advice.
Chu Qing thought about it for a moment, and suddenly looked at Tie Chuqing who was squatting in the corner and drawing circles.
Miss Lingfei followed his gaze, looking thoughtful.
Tie Chuqing felt the burning gaze and raised her head in confusion:
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
