Volume 1: Wrath of the West Chapter 28: Tianxiang Soft Bone Powder
…
The days passed one by one, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In half a month, Xu Rui had controlled nine big dogs through puppet talismans.
Except for the red dog named "Lai Fu" who was always with Chen Laogou, and three other dogs, all the dogs in the martial arts training ground were under his control.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to control more, but nine big dogs are already the limit of what his soul can bear now. If there are more, they will easily break free.
It's another night.
As the night deepened, Xu Rui, lying in bed, suddenly felt that all the dogs had been called away.
I was about to activate my spiritual sense and use the dog's perspective to explore, but after thinking it over, I held back.
Old Dog Chen also has magical powers. If he notices me making a move, it will be bad.
"Um?"
He was keenly aware of a series of hurried footsteps coming towards his room.
really.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
"Xu Rui, are you there?"
The voice was so loud that people in the rooms to the left and right must have heard it.
"coming."
After secretly saying this in his heart, he stood up and hid dozens of puppet talismans close to his body. After checking to make sure there was nothing missing, he opened the door.
Standing outside was a yellow-faced man wearing a gray shorts, of medium build and strong physique.
After a year, everyone already knew each other.
"It's so late, what's wrong?"
"I just came back from Master Chen. He asked you to go over."
After dinner, everyone saw him go to Master Chen's room. So calling Xu Rui now would be a logical mistake.
"Let's go."
After closing the door, the two walked away and soon left the place where everyone was staying.
"Isn't it Master Chen who is looking for me? Why are you going to where Elder Chen lives?"
"Oh, Master Chen is visiting the elders to discuss the assessment."
Xu Rui nodded without asking any more questions.
The two walked in silence and soon arrived at the door.
The yellow-faced man came forward and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
An old voice came.
After pushing open the door, the yellow-faced man did not come in.
"Xu Rui, Master Chen is waiting for you inside."
Looking at the half-open door, a fierce look flashed in Xu Rui's eyes.
After half a month of preparation, this day finally came.
After taking a deep breath, he stepped inside.
The yellow-faced man showed joy on his face and quickly closed the door.
A strange force flashed by, and the sound outside the door disappeared instantly.
Xu Rui instantly noticed something unusual. As someone who also practiced Lingbao Puppetry, he understood that it was the power of magic, or the power of talismans.
At the same time, a hint of sweet fragrance rushed into the mouth and nose.
The golden finger appears.
"'Tian Xiang Rougu San' is a low-level poison. For cultivators below the ninth rank, their qi and blood will be scattered within three minutes, and their hands and feet will be unable to move, leaving them vulnerable to being slaughtered."
“The negative impact has been eliminated.”
Seeing this, Xu Rui felt relieved.
Everything happened as he expected. Anything that entered his body, whether it was a ghost, poison, or something else, would be cleaned up by the golden finger.
Look towards the hall.
Chen Laogou, whom I had seen several times, sat in the main seat with a big horse and a golden sword. At his left foot lay a big red-haired dog with bulging muscles that was as big as a calf.
The dog had a vicious aura and ferocious eyes, it was the vicious dog named "Laifu".
In addition, there are twelve large dogs of different colors but all with strong physiques around.
They were arranged on the left and right, surrounding Xu Rui in the middle.
He took two steps forward and bowed.
"Xu Rui has met Elder Chen, but where is the teacher?"
"Teacher? You mean Chen Laosi? He's not here."
He spoke casually after picking up the teacup and taking a sip.
"In that case, I won't bother you anymore."
"Walk?"
A mocking smile.
With a wave of his hand, two big dogs blocked his way.
"What do you mean, elder?" Xu Rui looked grim.
"Hehe, someone promised enough to let me take your life."
Old Dog Chen really enjoys playing with his prey.
"It's Bai Jiang!"
"Smart. The Bai family's best-kept 'Eagle Eye Technique', plus a nearly 200-year-old wild ginseng, such a generous gift, how could Fifth Master be willing to refuse it?"
"You... woo! "
Xu Rui's face turned pale, and then he fell to his knees, his face full of disbelief and fear.
“How could I…?”
He raised his finger and pointed, his tone filled with great anger.
"Did you poison me?"
"Hehe, you are indeed a young boy who has just started out. You don't know how treacherous people are. You've already been defeated before Master Wu's dog formation has even been used."
Feeling proud, Old Dog Chen walked over, wanting to admire the prey's final struggle from close range.
"You can't kill me, or the teacher won't let you go."
Fear and confusion appeared on Xu Rui's face .
"You mean Chen Laosi? Haha, since Fifth Master dared to get rid of you, he is not afraid of his revenge. Besides, you forgot that when the guy outside the door came to find you, it was his name that was used. If you die, he cannot escape the blame."
"You...you, despicable!"
Xu Rui said viciously.
"Despicable? Boy, you can't be a hero without being ruthless. You don't even understand this principle. No wonder you were killed by that kid from the Bai family."
At this moment, Xu Rui knelt on the ground, trembling all over, trying his best to stabilize his body to prevent himself from falling. His eyes were fixed on Chen Laogou, as if he wished to sleep on his skin and eat his flesh.
But out of the corner of his eye, he was looking at the big red dog named Laifu who followed Chen Laogou closely.
"Don't blame me. I didn't want to kill you, but that kid from the Bai family gave me too much." Old Dog Chen looked very proud.
"you you you……!"
Xu Rui slowly raised his arm and pointed at Chen Laogou with trembling hands.
When his hand was raised above his head, a fierce look flashed in his eyes and a murderous aura prevailed on his face.
The raised right hand slammed down suddenly.
All the strength of the body exploded at this moment, and the air was compressed instantly.
"boom"!
The iron palm was like a giant hammer that could split a mountain, hitting the red dog's forehead hard.
This vicious dog was really powerful. Although it realized it late, it still moved half of its head away.
However, Xu Rui, who had made some progress in bone strengthening, could exert the maximum force of one palm strike close to one thousand kilograms.
With such an explosion, even stones can be cracked, let alone a dog's head.
In an instant, blood spurted out, and the dog weighing more than 100 pounds was knocked three feet away, smashing the tables and chairs, and then rolled to the wall and stopped moving.
Old Dog Chen stepped back suddenly like a frightened grasshopper, with a look of great shock and a stern voice.
"Subduing Tiger Palm?!"
He shook off the blood on his hands and stood up leisurely.
"Yes, it is the teacher's unique skill, 'Subduing Tiger Palm'."
Old Dog Chen looked gloomy.
"Chen Lao Si is really good to you. He even passed on his most valuable possessions to you. But I'm curious, how did you avoid my 'Tian Xiang Soft Bone Powder'? No one has the antidote for this poison except me."
While delaying time, he quietly directed several dogs with gestures to stand in front of him.
Xu Rui seemed not to see it.
