Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 14: Lin Chaoying is Obsessed
Facing the sword thrust at him by the girl, Qiu Chuji flicked his fingers, using only less than 30% of his strength. The girl had to deflect the sword and passed by Qiu Chuji's side, staggering a little.

In order to stop the drift, the girl kicked the nearest tree trunk with her feet, turned the sword, and used the "Wandering Around the World" move again, slashing straight at Qiu Chuji's forehead.

Since she knew that Qiu Chuji's skills were much better than hers, she naturally stopped.

"It's just an excuse to disturb you, there's no need to risk your life!" Qiu Chuji had verified the girl's skill with one finger before, and thought to himself that there was no problem. Now he wanted to use his Vajra Indestructible Skill to block the sword and try how strong this low-level defensive skill was.

The girl saw Qiu Chuji actually standing there and talking, his body not shaking at all. The sword was about to hit Qiu Chuji's forehead, so she could only forcibly retract her internal force, flip in the air and swing the sword in her hand.

The force backfired, and the sword slipped out of his hand, flew into the forest and got stuck in a big tree.

Cough...cough cough!
The girl coughed up two mouthfuls of blood and looked at Qiu Chuji with an expression as if he was a lunatic.

At this moment, her face was covered with tears, snot and blood stains, just like a beauty shop. It looked particularly funny under the moonlight. Her round, cute little face looked like a cat with a jar of seasoning knocked over.

"You... cough cough! Do you want to live?" The girl stared at Qiu Chuji, feeling that her luck today was particularly bad.

If her master had not told her not to mess with the stinky Quanzhen Taoist priest, she would have just swung her sword and landed directly at him, and she wouldn't have had to force her internal energy to injure herself.

"Why are you putting away your sword? I still want to try and see if you are strong enough!" Qiu Chuji slapped his forehead, then suddenly appeared beside the girl and grabbed her pulse before she could react.

"It's okay! It's just that the Taiyin lung meridian of your hand is slightly damaged. I will use my internal energy to help you circulate the blood, and you will be almost fully recovered. You just need to recuperate for a few more days and don't use your internal energy, and you will be fully recovered." Qiu Chuji said as he put down the girl's wrist.

The girl was stunned at first, then angry and ashamed.

Although people in society are not particular about trivial matters, it was the first time that a man pinched her wrist.

"What? Not happy?"

"Then you can go back and recuperate on your own. It will only take a few more days."

Qiu Chuji didn't care about the girl's shame and anger at all, and his tone remained calm.

The girl didn't want Qiu Chuji to heal her at first, but after hearing what Qiu Chuji said, she became stubborn and said, "Okay! Since you want to heal me, then come on! It's your own Qi that will be wasted anyway."

As he spoke, he looked around, obviously trying to find a place where they could sit cross-legged.

Qiu Chuji grabbed the girl's wrist again and transferred his powerful internal force directly to her.

Although the internal force cultivated by the Quanzhen Dao Song does not have any additional attributes, it is moderate and peaceful. It is suitable for using it to help others increase their power and blood flow, and to heal internal injuries.

After a few breaths, the girl's originally slightly rapid breathing calmed down, and the meridians that had been damaged by the forced withdrawal of internal energy were also nourished and no longer uncomfortable.

"I am Lin Xiaolan from the Ancient Tomb Sect. Thank you for your help, Brother Dao!" The girl took two steps back as soon as the enemy was freed, then bowed to Qiu Chuji across the stream.

Qiu Chuji looked at the girl who was rude at first but respectful later and saw that she had other intentions.

"Is there something wrong?" Qiu Chuji asked.

The girl nodded: "My master...my master was seriously injured and is now dying. I went to your Chongyang Palace during the day to ask for help from your master, but I heard from the Taoists that he was not on the mountain."

He said with obvious resentment: "Don't let me know if you are just being perfunctory."

"Master is indeed not on the mountain. He has gone down the mountain to collect military funds."

"If you think my skills are acceptable, take me to see your master." At this moment, Qiu Chuji remembered that Lin Chaoying died young.

Warriors have strong bodies, and ordinary lesions can heal themselves in no time.

I'm afraid that most of them have gone wrong in their internal cultivation, just like Wang Chongyang later. The girl said, "Okay! Come with me!"

As he said this, he took Qiu Chuji towards the ancient tomb.

Several decades later, the Tomb Sect treated the Quanzhen Sect disciples coldly and acted as if they would never have anything to do with each other again. In fact, it was probably all because of the influence of the woman in front of them.

Lin Chaoying was a heroic woman of her generation. Even if she had disputes and entanglements with Wang Chongyang, it would never expand to the level of two sects.

What's more, the ancient tomb was where Wang Chongyang stored weapons, money and grain, and Lin Chaoying was essentially a warehouse manager for Wang Chongyang.

As to why there is ambiguity and uncertainty between the two, only they themselves can explain it clearly; it is probably difficult for others to see the full picture.

At least in Qiu Chuji's opinion, Wang Chongyang is now using the guise of the "Quanzhen Sect" to avoid achieving a happy ending with Lin Chaoying. The most likely reason is that he does not want Lin Chaoying to be too deeply implicated.

After all, Wang Chongyang is still fighting against the Jin people. Even if the Jin people do not send a large army to attack, they may search for some experts and go up the mountain to besiege the Quanzhen Taoist priests together.

The ancient tomb was buried deep in the mountains, but the entrance was quite obvious. The girl turned the mechanism in front of the tomb door and led Qiu Chuji into the tomb.

"Follow me closely and watch my steps. Your master has buried many traps in this ancient tomb. It would be a big joke if you are accidentally ambushed by them." The girl spoke without turning her head, and no one saw the blush on her face.

Not long ago, she swore in front of her former lady and current master that she would never let a man enter the ancient tomb again.

Unexpectedly, she broke her vow just half a day after making it.

After following Lin Xiaolan around in the ancient tomb for several circles, they finally opened a stone door and saw a bright light.

In a stone chamber with numerous air holes, a woman, about 27 or 28 years old, dressed in white, with stunning appearance and full of heroic spirit, was sitting cross-legged on a cold jade bed. Her face turned red and white, but her breath was constantly weakening, like a candle in the wind that could go out at any time.

Lin Xiaolan looked at her master with a worried look on her face, and whispered to Qiu Chuji: "Master has been like this for seven days. Not only has he not been able to break through, but his aura is getting weaker day by day. I'm worried that soon... soon..."

Qiu Chuji nodded. Although he had not practiced for a long time, his knowledge was quite extraordinary due to the impact of several magical skills.

Lin Chaoying must have had problems with her internal cultivation a long time ago, so she chose to sit in a state of death to solve the problem.

However, she obviously did not succeed. If she continues to waste her energy now, once her breath is exhausted, she will be exhausted.

In this situation, no matter how much noise the people outside make, it is difficult to wake her up. The only way to interrupt this self-consumption is to find an internal martial arts master who can forcibly interfere with her internal force, suppress the boiling true qi in her body, and force out her spiritual intelligence.

"In theory, we should wait for Master to come back before making plans, but looking at Senior Lin's current condition, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for too long."

"If you agree, I will give it a try." Qiu Chuji turned to Lin Xiaolan and said.

Qiu Chuji was still very confident in himself. His internal strength might not be as strong as Wang Chongyang's, but in terms of endurance, he had some confidence because he had the backup of the Qi body source and was operating the five cores.

What is needed to help others push their blood and reconnect their energy channels is endurance.

Of course, the basic strength of internal force cannot be bad. Before entering the Nameless Valley, Qiu Chuji was definitely not qualified. Now that his internal force is comparable to that of the first-rate ones, he can give it a try.

"Stop talking nonsense and go quickly!" Lin Xiaolan's heart was trembling, but she spoke harshly.

It is obvious that they have decided to give it a try.

After all, Lin Chaoying was on the verge of collapse. If Qiu Chuji hadn't intervened, she would have been able to survive for just one more night before she would have died completely.

No matter how worried and nervous she was, she had no choice but to let Qiu Chuji give it a try.
