Xiaoyaoshanjun

Chapter 170 Mei Xiuzhu

With Tian Buli's supernatural power, the few black-clad men who were still alive nearby quickly fled in all directions.

Tian Buli quickly landed on the ground and turned to walk backwards.

Mei Zhongao was seriously injured and was leaning against the wheel of the carriage watching Tian Buli's departing back.

"Master! Save me..."

Tian Buli turned around and looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the puddle on the ground, then at the girl and woman who got off the car.

"Dad! Dad! Are you okay?" the girl asked anxiously.

Tian Buli watched quietly, not having time to care about what was in the girl's mind, but quickly glanced around.

There were many puddles on the ground because of the flood.

Although many criminals were crushed to pieces by the flood, there were a few who were lucky enough to keep their bodies intact, or were directly washed into nearby farmland puddles.

Tian Buli wanted to give it one more blow and stab everyone on the ground, whether dead or alive.

Since you are going to kill him, it is best to kill him.

As for why these people took action, Tian Buli didn't care at all.

No matter how many come, we will kill them all. I don’t believe he can send a thousand people to continue causing trouble.

However, most of his magic power was spent on flood control and flying today, and spitting water also used up the magic power he had just cultivated. Now he doesn't have much magic power to use.

The servants who had run away from nearby came back one after another, and soon they gathered together to support the wounded who had just been beaten.

Tian Buli did not trust these people. After resting for half a minute to catch his breath, he jumped into the air again and returned to his own convoy.

Not long after, the two convoys met.

Mei Xiuzhu quickly led her people over.

"Our caravan encountered some bad guys, and we were lucky enough to get help from a Taoist priest. Could you please let us follow you into the city?"

After hearing this, Tian Buli said in the carriage, "Just follow behind."

Mei Xiuzhu heard the Taoist priest's voice and said gratefully, "Thank you, Taoist priest!"

Tian Buli didn't say anything and took the time to practice and recover his magic power.

Excessive spellcasting will cause loss of Taoism skills. In the past, fighting relied on physical strength and internal energy was rarely used.

After this time of excessive consumption, he discovered that not only had sixty years of internal energy been consumed to thirty years, but even his Taoism skills had regressed.

Taoism is a level, but it is not only a level, it is also a mixture of mana and many complex attributes.

Lan He quickly sent someone to deliver healing medicine, while Tian Buli seriously considered the consequences of overuse of various attributes.

It’s okay to use some strength, but it definitely doesn’t mean you will gain strength after using it all.

Just like working overtime, there is no saying that working overtime for seven consecutive days will make the body more adapted to overtime. It will only make the warning line for sudden death lower and lower, and it will drop directly.

If you want to improve your physical fitness, you should rely on exercise and self-cultivation, not overtime work.

If you always overexert your strength once or twice, your body will send out an alarm and you will feel constant pain. If you do this too often, you will definitely die quickly.

Tian Buli had experienced this kind of thing before. Exerting too much force can really shorten your life.

Using too much internal energy will cause vomiting blood. Tian Buli himself has not had this experience, but he has heard about it when chatting with a group of martial arts friends.

When competing with others in internal strength, he often vomits blood when the palms are facing each other.

The practice of Taoism itself is about living in harmony with the world, and fighting and killing will indeed damage one's Taoism.

After Tian Buli realized what he had overlooked, he quickly made a decision.

Next time you act, you must be quick, accurate, and ruthless!
The more decisive you are, the easier it will be to solve the problem, and hesitation will only lead to failure.

Also, don't interfere in the affairs of the people. In all dynasties, it was the officials who managed the people, not Taoist priests and powerful people.

Once you take care of one case, there will be a second and a third one. You can't just kneel down and be surrounded by a group of villagers every day and listen to their complaints, right?
Tian Buli had also been in the city for several years. Considering his experience of hooking up with women in the cornfields in the countryside in his previous life, he was actually annoyed with this kind of trivial matter.

After determining the future route, Tian Buli continued with his current plan and spent most of his time in meditation in Yanxia Mountain.

Don’t meddle in things at home and don’t worry about things outside.

Things like today's attacks by criminals are easy to solve. All you have to do is show your strong strength.

The officials of Qitianfu are also responsible for investigations and other matters. They have encountered this kind of thing twice in a row. If they don't give an explanation now, they will give one next time. Tian Buli began to practice after determining the approximate time arrangement. This time he brought his wife and children back to visit relatives, and also strengthened the influence of these people at home.

When I am not around, no one will look down on the orphans and widows at home.

On the contrary, killing a few people this time will make it easier to establish authority.

It was not only a deterrent to the bad guys, but also to the servants of the Tian family, letting these people know that the immortal could not only fly, but also kill people without mercy. Hundreds of people coming here would be courting death.

Tian Buli didn't care about the bad guys. Mei Xiuzhu, her injured father and several fellow brothers quickly found some bad guys who were pretending to be dead and some who were not dead.

Mei Xiuzhu placed the sword on the man's ear, and with a light slash of the sword in her hand, she cut off half of the man's ear.

The man's screams quickly rang out, shocking hundreds of people nearby.

"Tell me! Who sent you here?! Why do you want to harm our Shancheng Sect!!"

The masked man's face was covered in sweat, and his clothes were already soaked. He shouted, "Spare me! I didn't mean to offend you! This is for that Taoist priest!"

Mei Zhongao quickly realized the problem. He was also a martial artist and the leader of a famous and upright sect.

"Are you eaters who receive gold, or are you hunters?"

"To eat!" The masked man quickly responded to Mei Zhongao's cryptic words, "Master, spare my life! This matter has nothing to do with you. If you let me go, nothing will happen!"

Mei Zhongao was hesitant. The people who ate the food were hunters specially raised by some big forces, while the ordinary hunters were martial artists who temporarily took risks.

These people's targets are not ordinary people, but those who possess magic weapons, natural treasures, cultivation secrets and the like.

Taoists often have this kind of high-value items, so sometimes when they meet an expert who can fly, they will follow him.

Generally speaking, people will only take action when they have clues, such as knowing who takes which road and when, and where their home is.

Therefore, this kind of master who makes a living by eating gold must have the support of high-ranking officials and powerful people behind him.

When Mei Zhongao was thinking about what to do, Mei Xiuzhu next to him stabbed the man's throat with a sword!
The masked man opened his eyes wide and tried to grab the sword with both hands, but soon his hands and feet became weak and his body turned cold and he lost all consciousness.

"Dad, there's no need to waste time talking to this bad guy!"

Mei Zhongao was seriously injured. He nodded and said, "That's it. I'll go and rest. You and Qing'er should arrange the next things. Then bring some gold and silver and ten carts of things to thank the Taoist priest for his help."

Mei Xiuzhu also knew that there were fewer people now, so it was not suitable to carry so many things on the road.

"Yes!"

Li Qing said, "Master, isn't ten cars too many?"

Mei Xiuzhu said quickly, "Brother, don't be greedy for money at this critical moment. The Taoist priest has great magical powers and must know many noble people in Qitian Mansion. We are all in the martial arts world. Money won't work for anyone. We are also involved in a murder case. If the soldiers find out, we will be in big trouble."

"Give the gift to the Taoist priest, and the problem will be solved naturally. The Taoist priest will definitely have a say with the nobles in the city, and no villains or soldiers will embarrass us anymore."

Mei Zhongao said: "Xiu'er is right, you should listen to her arrangements carefully."

The other disciples had no objection after hearing this. After all, this was the master's biological daughter, and what he said was not wrong.

Now that most of the disciples in the sect have died, some people are indeed thinking about dividing the family property and leaving, but these are just ideas and have not been put into action.

Now that they can use the Master’s money to buy their own peace, these people don’t object.

Soon Mei Xiuzhu walked to Tian Buli's carriage.

"Master, thank you for your help this time. My father is willing to give you ten carts of gifts and specialties, including antique calligraphy and paintings, silk and satin, and medicinal supplements. Even the carts and horses are intact and will be given to you."

After Mei Xiuzhu finished speaking, she looked at the carriage. There was only a coachman there, and the curtain behind the driver did not move at all, so she could not see what was going on inside.

After a few seconds, Mei Xiuzhu was sweating profusely.

"Okay." Tian Buli said slowly, "Follow me. I'm going to stay at the Princess' Mansion in Qitian Mansion for two days. I will tell the people in the palace about your affairs and ensure your safety in and out."

Mei Xiuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, bowed her waist and said gratefully: "Thank you, Immortal!"

Tian Buli originally thought that these young girls were a bunch of useless women who could only scream, but he didn't expect that he was wrong this time. This woman was excellent in handling things.

Tian Buli still has a good impression of outstanding women.

"My name is Tian Buli. If anyone bothers you again, just tell me my name."

Mei Xiuzhu was even more grateful, "Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
