Volume 2: A sudden change in the prison, a red-clothed man goes out to find a thief Chapter 172: Wanderers Will Always Have a Home
In the next few days, Bai Yaoer seemed to be very busy. Because under the interrogation of the Jianghu people, a total of 1,600 demon sect disciples were taken away from the Eight Bitter Sect. Suddenly, most of the sect members were missing, and most of them were people in important positions. Naturally, the affairs of the sect became complicated. Not only did he have to appoint new candidates for positions and take care of the daily affairs of the sect, but he also had to calm people's hearts and prepare for future matters.
It can be said that although her act of cutting off her arm temporarily made the people in the martial arts world let her and the remaining disciples of the Eight Bitterness Sect go, it also put the sect into a difficult situation. Whether she can reverse this situation in the future depends on her own methods.
Li Si did not stay in the Eight Bitterness Gate for too long. After he recovered, he asked someone to tell Bai Yaoer to take care, and then he left alone.
The thin figure outside the mountain gate gradually walked away, and a woman in red watched them go with a sword in her arms. Neither of them looked back, nor did they say anything, and neither of them said goodbye.
The road ahead is long, but there is no need to say goodbye.
The news that the Eight Bitter Sect had reappeared in the martial arts world soon spread all over the martial arts world. The faction's siege of the Demon Sect immediately became a hot topic among the people in the streets.
"Well, according to what you said, the various factions in the martial arts world have all the advantages, so why don't they completely destroy the Eight Bitter Sect to prevent future troubles?"
In the Border Town Restaurant, a place full of noise and bustle, several people were sitting around the table, discussing the battle of Guijiang Mountain that day.
"Pah." A big man with a black beard grinned with a mouthful of white teeth, spitting out a piece of melon seed shell from his mouth.
"I'm just about to say this, don't be impatient, just listen to me slowly. Just when Li Si was about to lose, a long sword suddenly fell from the sky, with a beam of sword light slashing to the ground. Wow, that scene, in an instant, sand flew everywhere, the sky was dark, and the wind was blowing so hard that people couldn't even open their eyes. The people who were about to step forward retreated, and when the smoke and dust cleared, they could see clearly who slashed the sword."
"Dugu Bufu?" A younger boy asked with a frown. He heard that Dugu Bufu had a good relationship with Li Si, so he wondered if he could help him at this time.
"What? Why would Dugu Bufu help Li Si? They are sworn enemies." The big man with black beard sneered, then lowered his body and spoke word by word while looking at the people at the table.
"It's the leader of the Eight Bitter Sect, Bai Yaoer."
The eyes of the people at the table suddenly widened: "Bai Yaoer, so this is her name, is she that powerful?"
"I also learned her name from a disciple of the Demon Sect. As for how powerful she is, that is something that ordinary people cannot imagine. Not to mention us, even the leaders of the various sects did not expect it."
Looking at the surprised expressions of the people around him, the big man with black beard narrowed his eyes, and seemed very satisfied to keep the secret for another day.
"Guess what level Bai Yao'er has cultivated the Nine Transformations to?"
"have no idea."
“How many floors?”
"Just tell me now."
At this time, even the people sitting next to him started to urge him forward. It seemed that they had heard something and couldn't help but become interested.
"Hehe." The black-bearded man clasped his fists towards the people around him, leaned over the table, looked around at everyone, and held up two fingers: "From what I understand, she has at least cultivated to the eighth level, or even the ninth level."
"Hiss!" There were sounds of people sucking in cold air all around. The ninth level was the realm of He Lang back then. What a joke, a second He Lang appeared in the martial arts world?
"Yes, all the people in the martial arts world at that time had the same reaction as you." The big man with black beard shook his head and said seriously.
"The ninth level of the Nine Transformations is a martial art that is invincible in the world. At that time, the martial artists present had no chance of defeating her, so after several discussions, the martial artists finally compromised. Bai Yaoer handed over all the disciples of the Demon Sect and promised never to do anything for the Demon Sect again. The martial artists let her and the remaining disciples of the Eight Bitter Sect who had nothing to do with the matter go, and stopped bothering her. In this way, the matter was settled."
People on both sides fell silent, probably because they had not yet recovered from this rather tortuous story.
But at this moment, someone suddenly sighed.
"Alas, what a pity for Li Si, a great thief, but now he is seriously ill and can't even use his Qinggong skills."
This sigh immediately attracted a lot of resonance.
"Yeah, I was wondering why he hadn't made any movement in all these years."
"It seems that he will hardly appear in the martial arts world again in the future."
"Well, the world is unpredictable and things change."
A group of people sighed, with a sense of grief over the death of a rabbit.
In this world, who dares to say that they can come and go in peace?
…
At the same time, in the Hundred Flowers Valley, Li Si was sitting on the edge of a cliff, looking at the sea of flowers below the mountain, lost in thought. The sea of flowers seemed to have no end, extending along the valley, connected to the blue sky, quiet and distant.
The wind blew the flowers, revealing a few scattered figures inside. They were probably the disciples who were returning to the mountain. The petals fluttered with their dresses, and were picked up by the wind, flying everywhere, some even flying over the mountainside. Li Si raised his hand to catch a petal, then let it go, letting it continue to float away.
Now, with the help of Hua Junjun, he has taken the root knot grass. Now his illness is almost cured, and there is no longer the dull pain in his chest. The sudden comfort makes him a little difficult to adapt. It should be said that humans are indeed good at adapting, and a little bit humble. At least Li Si has always felt that he is such a person.
At the same time, as his meridians became stronger, his internal strength and Qinggong also achieved a breakthrough and reached the highest level. But to be honest, considering that he practiced for three days and rested for two days, it was really a miracle that he could practice the skills to perfection. I don't know how many people in the martial arts world will be angry to death if I tell you about it.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from behind Li Si, followed by a woman's voice.
"Where are you going after that?"
Although he had already heard who this person was, Li Si still looked back, smiled at the Shuhu girl standing behind him, and spoke.
"I don't know, maybe I'll find a place to settle down."
"No longer wandering around?" There seemed to be some surprise in the eyes of the tiger girl.
"Well, I'm a little tired." Li Si said with a smile. Besides, he had already been to all the places he should go, so there was no need to wander any further.
"Then I'll go with you." The tiger girl replied indifferently. She seemed to have gotten used to it.
But this time, Li Si's eyes hesitated for a moment , and then he spoke slowly.
"No, let's just say goodbye this time."
"Do you find me annoying?" After a long silence, the tiger girl asked softly.
"No." Li Si turned around, looked at the sea of flowers at the foot of the mountain, and answered with a faint smile.
"It's just that you should go on your own way."
When he first rescued Shu Hu Nu, she had nowhere to go and had difficulty gaining a foothold in the world, so he let Shu Hu Nu follow him first.
And now, she is capable enough to make her own way in the world.
"I have been an object since I was young, and I have no way of my own." The tiger girl stood beside Li Si and said calmly.
"But you can't be an object all your life." Li Si sat on the ground, shaking his head with a faint smile.
"Everyone has his own path, and your path is not to follow me. Try to find it, you should live for yourself."
The tiger girl was stunned for a moment, and she glanced sideways at Li Si. After a long time, she turned around and looked at the valley with Li Si.
"Okay, I'll go look for it."
Neither of them spoke anymore. On the cliff, only the faint sound of the wind was still ringing. Flower petals were flying all over the sky, and no one knew where they were going.
After an unknown amount of time, the Tiger Girl asked again, "If I want to see you again in the future, where should I go to find you?"
Li Si raised his head and thought for a while, then answered.
"Every April, I go to Jinshan Temple to listen to Buddhist sutras."
…
Shu Hunu left, and half a month later, Li Si also left Baihua Valley.
In order to repay the life-saving grace, he promised Hua Junjun one thing. He could unconditionally help Baihua Valley with a favor, no matter what it was, even if it meant killing the leader of the martial arts world, he would help.
It was October, and it was raining in Mingzhou City.
The autumn rain was falling continuously, and tiny raindrops fell from the sky, wetting the clothes of passers-by and adding a bit of chill to this autumn.
Outside Qianjialou, a fair-faced young man wearing coarse cloth clothes walked over holding a paper umbrella.
Because it was raining, the business in the restaurant was not good that day.
Seeing the guests, the waiter hurried over to greet them and asked, "Sir, are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?"
"Ah, neither." The young man put away the paper umbrella in his hand, and the raindrops slid down the umbrella and fell on the ground.
The rain was falling outside the door. The young man raised his head with a smile and looked at the waiter and asked.
"Are you hiring long-term workers?"
