I am a professional at killing time travelers
Chapter 86: Heart Trial
Long Chuang left, but not completely, because Long Quan'er stayed. It was not that Zheng Qiu wanted to keep her, but Long Chuang forced her to come, under the pretext of training, but in fact she stayed to monitor Zheng Qiu and see if Zhao Yiban would come back.
It was only after Zheng Qiu asked this question that he realized that Zhao Yiban had actually shouted out the phrase, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west; don't look down on the young and poor."
The Long family felt humiliated and wanted to kill him before the fight agreed upon by the two. There was another more important reason. The upper realm had already sent an invitation to the Long family. The main participant was Long Linger from the Long family who had broken off the engagement. The Long family did not want the big figures in the upper realm to know that Long Linger had a flawed reputation, so they launched a strong siege against Zhao Yiban.
And because of that old soul, Zhao Yiban escaped capture time and time again.
Of course, the Long family only just found out about this old soul, because Zhao Yiban was extremely ruthless and left no one alive every time. Although he managed to keep the secret, he and the Long family were already in a situation of life and death.
Zheng Qiu seemed a little lazy these days. He just sat in the square to bask in the sun every day. The main reason was the Tiandao Ruins. Every time he entered the Tiandao Ruins, his cultivation would grow rapidly. In reality, accumulating spiritual energy and forging flesh and bones was very boring. He was used to being a bird, so how could he be willing to move forward step by step with a heavy burden?
At this moment, the sky and the earth suddenly changed color, and a dim yellow light fell from the sky and enveloped everyone in the sect.
Zheng Qiu waved his hand, and the Wuxian Palace shrank and appeared in his dantian.
Looking at the outer disciples kneeling on the ground, Zheng Qiu just smiled and said, "Practice well and wait for us to come back!"
"Farewell, Master! Farewell, Saint! Farewell, all the Heavenly Officials!"
What surprised Zheng Qiu was that a dim beam of light also enveloped Long Quan'er. The Long family was involved with the State of Zhao, which was tantamount to aiding the enemy.
Then a huge black hole appeared in the sky and sucked everyone into the hole.
Zheng Qiu looked at the boundless world and fell into deep thought again. This world is huge! It is so huge that even if it is thousands of feet high in the air, you can't even see a trace of arc.
The whole world was exceptionally quiet, so quiet that Zheng Qiu was the only one there.
Zheng Qiu thought secretly: "Is this trial just for me?"
Suddenly a golden light penetrated into Zheng Qiu's mind.
"Refine your state of mind! My child, your strength has increased too quickly, and your Dao heart is unstable. What you need to do this time is to calm down and recall your own path of cultivation. If you want to go far, a calm Dao heart is a must. From now on, this is a test I have arranged for you!"
Zheng Qiu looked at the endless plain. The grass was growing wildly. Soon, big trees suddenly grew out. Then there were human figures. Those human figures gradually became solid from illusory. Village houses with thatched huts slowly appeared.
Soon Zheng Qiu stood in the crowd. Some of these people were carrying baskets of vegetables, some were drinking and joking on the street, and there were endless shouts of hawking. At this time, the flag on a wine shop was shaking.
A voice appeared in his mind: "You are now a mortal! And you are the child of the boss of this tavern!"
Zheng Qiu thought for a moment and said, "Then can I practice cultivation?"
"It's up to you! This is a different life!"
Suddenly, Zheng Qiu turned into a blue light, running up and down the street, and then entered a tavern. There was a woman among them, whose belly was obviously about to give birth. The woman's body shook for a while, and then she began to moan.
"Oh my! Boss, I'm giving birth!"
A man in his thirties or forties was calculating on an abacus at the counter. He rushed out of the counter when he heard the woman's scream. Seeing the woman collapsed on the ground, he became panicked: "What should I do... What should I do... Right, right, right! All the guys go get the midwife!"
The shop assistants rushed out of the tavern to look for the midwife.
The town was not big, and almost all the visitors passing by were acquaintances. With the shopkeeper's shouts, several young and strong men escorted the beautiful woman into the side room.
The beautiful woman's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Just as she was put on the bed, an old woman in plain clothes rushed into the room.
"What are you guys still doing here? Get out! Shopkeeper Li, go ask the fireman to boil some water, and have the men I brought bring it in later, and then get busy!"
After the old woman finished speaking, she began to comfort the beautiful woman. She had seen this scene many times and believed that this time it would be easy as well.
Shopkeeper Li was wandering around the door. After an incense stick of time, a scream broke the tense atmosphere.
Zheng Qiu was born. At this time, he stared with big eyes at the beautiful woman who was holding him in her arms.
The old woman was still screaming, and then she looked at the shopkeeper Li who ran in: "Strange! Strange! I have been delivering babies for more than 30 years, but this is the first time I have seen a baby with its eyes open at birth!"
Li Jian laughed so hard that he couldn't stop. Then he said to the old woman, "This child has black and bright eyes. Let's call him Li Tong!"
Li Tong began her fast-forward life.
In a blink of an eye, Li Tong was five years old. He was holding a neat book in the tavern, reading it and reciting it. The guests in the tavern seemed to be accustomed to this scene, and some of them even teased Li Tong.
Li Tong was not affected by the crowd and just quietly read a book in the corner.
Three years passed after sunrise and sunset. This year Li Tong was eight years old. Zheng Qiu wanted to practice Qigong, but no matter how hard he tried, it seemed that there was no spiritual energy in this world.
After a long time, Li Tong gave up, until one day an old man in a black Taoist robe came to the tavern.
The old man looked at everyone in the tavern with a sharp gaze, and then stared at Li Tong. He did not react even when the waiter came to serve him.
Li Tong felt the hairs on his back stand up, and he quickly turned around, and at this moment his eyes met with the old Taoist.
Zheng Qiu had never felt fear in reality, but from this old Taoist priest, he felt an unprecedented tremor in his soul.
Li Jian, who was standing at the counter at this time, also raised his head and shouted, "Tong'er, run!"
Before Li Jian walked out of the counter, the old Taoist waved his hand, and scarlet blood splattered everywhere.
Li Tong was so scared that her hands kept shaking in front of her. At this time, Li Tong's mother also came out and was stunned when she saw the Taoist priest.
"Li Lang! Second Uncle, do you really want to kill us all?" The beautiful woman stepped forward and stood in front of Li Tong, then looked at the old Taoist with a cold face.
The old Taoist ignored the people who escaped from the tavern and just looked at Li Tong coldly.
"Are you doing this to the Zhang family? We raised you, educated you, invested countless resources, and let you live a life of ease and comfort, but you only enjoy yourself? You even had a child in the past ten years? Are you doing this to us?"
The beautiful woman's tears flowed like a waterfall, and then she said with a trembling voice, "Second Uncle, is it wrong for me to just want to find someone who loves me? Do you really want to sacrifice me for the sake of the family? You are too selfish!"
The old Taoist shook his head: "If you don't agree, the Zhang family will be wiped out. Since you promised me, the Zhang family must do it. Do you want your parents to die in front of you? So who is selfish?"
The old Taoist stopped talking nonsense, a rope flew out from his sleeve, and he tied up Zhang Yue. Then he picked up Li Tong with one hand and disappeared in the town.
