Chapter 40 Idiot
"Thank you, Senior Jin, for escorting me all the way. This is a little thought from this junior, please be sure to accept it. With Senior Jin's cultivation level, it is naturally not of use, but the juniors in the family can always It’s useful.”
At the door of his residence on Xinming Street, Wu Tao held a small spiritual light-covering robe and handed it to Jin Ke.
Jin Ke looked at Wu Tao and felt that Master Li was different from other weapon refiners in that he was well-mannered and well-mannered. Although he was sent to assist Shopkeeper Yu, Shopkeeper Yu asked him to occasionally protect others. There is nothing wrong with it, but protecting is a matter of affection and not protecting is a duty. Many people cannot figure this out.
The weapon master named Li Mo in front of him could carry it clearly, which made Jin Ke feel very comfortable, and he was very willing to escort Li Mo all the way. He took the robe and said with a smile: "A little bit It’s a small matter, so I’ll leave first. Take care, Master Li, I’ll send it to you next time you deliver it to the spiritual materials shop.”
"Senior Jin, walk slowly."
After watching Jin Ke leave, Wu Tao returned to the house, turned on the soundproof anti-peep formation, poured a cup of tea, sat on the Taishi chair he made, and drank tea. While thinking about what just happened.
Actually, when he declined the Tongzhusan Artifact Masters Association, he thought that the other party might cause trouble, so he was cautious during this period.
Unexpectedly, I really came to intercept and kill him today.
The aura fluctuations of the two casual cultivators were clearly at the fifth level of Qi refining.
Without Jin Ke's escort, he might have really run away.
With one person at the fifth level of Qi Refining, he thought he could still give it a try, but with two, it was not very safe, so it would be better to use the magic talisman to escape.
Be cautious and you will live longer.
Thinking of Fang Ming’s attitude in Yuexian Tower, I knew that these so-called Weapon Refiner Associations were definitely not good. Also, any organization could be kind. If it was kind, it would not be possible here. stand in this environment.
“The other party who dares to attack in the outer city must be trying to take advantage of this chaotic situation.”
"Also, Wu Zhongxing..."
Wu Tao has been in contact with Wu Zhongxing for a month, and he also has a general understanding of Wu Zhongxing, who is very naive. However, he is also a good person. He thought that to persuade him to join, he just used his emotions and reason, and his words were not overly aggressive.
Furthermore, from a month of verbal conversations, Wu Zhongxing also told him that the original intention of their association was to allow casual cultivators to advance and retreat together, watch and help each other, and live more calmly in this world. .
“Advance together, retreat together, and help each other. If an organization can maintain this original intention when it is established, I believe it. But any original intention, once the president, vice president, and members are established, level, it is impossible to advance and retreat at the same time."
Wu Tao has already seen through this.
It's not that he thinks something is wrong. Class is something inherent in a group, regardless of any living group. It is inevitable and cannot be eliminated. However, joining the association is indeed not in his interest.
"This month, Wu Zhongxing is indeed a good person. He came to inform me that Fang Ming wanted to take action against me. This seems like something he can do."
Wu Tao couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought of Wu Zhongxing's arrival. Of course, he was not worried about Wu Zhongxing, but worried: "Xie Tao, Fang Ming, if these two people are not dead, they are indeed a threat to me."
< br>"During this period, in addition to delivering goods, we will practice and improve our strength. After the meat refining stage is completed, we will settle the score later."
Although Wu Tao wants to keep a low profile, people are going to kill him. , he could not remain indifferent.
Burying this matter deeply in his heart, Wu Tao began to practice.
It was past noon the next day.
As soon as Wu Tao was about to practice the dragon spear technique, the soundproof and anti-peep formation sounded a beep. He hurried over and thought to himself: "Is it someone from the Demon Killing Hall and the patrol team coming to check again?"
He looked out of habit and saw that it was Wu Zhongxing.
Wu Zhongxing has known his address for a long time, but he has never bothered him at home once. Even if he persuaded him to join the association, he only showed up to persuade him when he went out to set up a stall.
It can be seen that he is a very principled person.
This visit must be about what happened yesterday.
Wu Tao had a clear mind, opened the door, and said with cupped hands: "Fellow Daoist Wu!"
"Fellow Daoist Li, I came here because of what happened yesterday..." When Wu Zhongxing said this, his expression changed. He was quite embarrassed and felt guilty.
"Wu Daoyou, please come in and talk!" "Thank you!"
After inviting Wuzhong Xing in, Wu Tao made him a cup of tea. Of course it couldn't be spiritual tea, but ordinary tea: "Fellow Daoist Wu, please drink tea!"
Then it was quiet. Wait for Wu Zhongxing to explain what happened yesterday.
Wu Zhongxing did not drink tea, but took out two books, pushed them towards Wu Tao from the table, and said: "Fellow Daoist Li, these are the two most precious weapon refining secrets in our association. Please also ask Friend Li "Be sure to accept it."
Wu Tao looked at the titles of the books, "Secret Book of Refining the First-Level and Five-Level Soul Traveling Boots" and "Secret Book of Refining the First-Level and Sixth-Level Magical Weapon Splitting Light Sword", and was slightly surprised. , these two magic weapon refining books are extremely precious to casual cultivators.
Of course Wu Tao knew why Wu Zhong did this, but he gave such an important thing in the association to an outsider, and he was not afraid of punishment from Xie Tao and Fang Ming?
"Wu Daoyou, I know what you mean, but this is too valuable. Aren't you afraid that President Xie and Vice President Fang will punish you for this?"
Wu Zhongxing heard this, He sighed and said: "President Xie and Vice-President Fang died innocently at the hands of demon cultivators because they broke into the association."
Wu Tao was startled, these two enemies were dead? He was also planning to spend thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. However, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but... he still believed what Wu Zhongxing said.
"Please forgive me..." Hahaha.
Wu Zhongxing did not answer, but stood up, bowed at right angles, and said sincerely: "Friend Li, Mr. Wu would like to apologize to you. If I hadn't recommended you to the association, you wouldn't have suffered this disaster for nothing."
"These two artifact refining secrets are my apology for this apology. I also ask fellow Daoist Li to accept them, otherwise Wu will feel uneasy."
Wu Tao looked at Wu Zhongxing and pondered for a moment. , then said: "Okay, Fellow Daoist Wu, I accept it. Fellow Daoist Wu, can you tell me the details of Fang Ming's interception and killing of me?"
Wu Zhongxing slowly told the story, saying that in Yuexian Tower Xie Tao had murderous intentions when Wu Tao refused, and he also told what happened after that. However, he said that Xie Tao and Fang Ming were fine when he arrived, but they were dead after they returned.
After listening to Wu Zhongxing’s story, Wu Tao said expressionlessly: “If you don’t get it, destroy it, and spread rumors that I want to join the Jiu Ming Powder Cultivation Masters Association, making something out of nothing... This is the association founded by Xie Tao concept?”
"Advance together, retreat together, watch and help each other... Haha..."
Wu Zhongxing's face was sad. Obviously this incident had a big impact on him, but he always believed that what he did was right. He never expected that , was stabbed in the back by the person he trusted the most.
He said: "I have dissolved the association."
After finishing speaking, seeing that Wu Tao no longer expressed his opinions, he couldn't help asking: "Fellow Daoist Li, you said that we, the casual cultivators, originally It’s so hard, being squeezed out of living space by big cultivating sects like Wuquan Mountain, why do fellow cultivators persecute each other?”
“I’ve always thought that we casual cultivators should unite to resist the big cultivating sects. It’s a squeeze, but I seem to have made a mistake... Fellow Daoist Li, do you think people like me are stupid?”
Wu Tao looked at Wu Zhongxing, and his heart fluctuated. He thought for a while and then said seriously: "You are not stupid. In fact, Wu Daoyou, there are many people like you, but you just didn't find it."
" Really?”
Wu Zhongxing’s eyes lit up.
Then, he stood up, solemnly bowed his hand to Wu Tao, and said: "Fellow Daoist Li, don't bother me anymore, take care. I don't know if we will have another chance to meet in the future."
Wu Tao returned the favor: "Fellow Daoist Wu. Want to leave?”
Wu Zhongxing said: "After this incident, I also want to understand. This Wuquan Mountain is too powerful, and the casual cultivators have no chance. I want to go to other immortal cultivation cities that are not so powerful. Maybe we casual cultivators still have A chance to resist.”
“Fellow Daoist Li, I’m going to find fools like me!”
“Fellow Daoist Li, goodbye!”
Wu Tao looked at Wu Zhongxing. His face was no longer gloomy, but full of excitement. He walked out of the door. The snow outside was melting, and the sun was shining on the ground and on Wu Zhongxing's body. I don't know if it was an illusion. Wu Tao felt that at this time Wu Zhongxing is a bit dazzling.
“Wu Daoyou, I wish you success!”
Wu Tao gave his blessing to the brisk Wu Zhongxing from afar.
