Chapter 14 The Long Night

Qin Jiang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the old doctor could see it directly.

"You have indeed reached the third level."

The old doctor smiled when he heard this and said, "Please stay here tonight. There is a secret method to Wu Qin Xi. You need to soak yourself in a medicinal bath at dawn to complete it."

Qin Jiang thought for a moment and agreed.

At night, in a room in the backyard, candlelight flickered, reflecting people's shadows on the wall.

In front of the table, Qin Jiang was writing quickly, writing "Five Qigong of Immortality", planning to hand it over to the old doctor tomorrow.

Late at night, he put down his pen, twisted his neck, and stretched his body slightly.

I stood up and walked to the window. The lonely moon was hanging high, and the bright white moonlight was shining down.

The night is extremely beautiful tonight, and it seems a bit quieter than before.

I walked to the table and blew out the candles. I had to learn Iron Arm Fist tomorrow, so I had to rest soon.

The next day, Qin Jiang sat up from the bed, his eyes slightly closed, still a little tired.

After the fierce battle with the two fox demons yesterday, even after sleeping all night, I was still a little tired.

Putting on his cloth, he followed his memory and walked to the door, intending to go out and wash his face.

"Squeak~"

The door opens, but it's not day, it's still night.

suck--!

Qin Jiang took a deep breath and woke up instantly.

Looking up, the moonlight is still there.

Immediately, he was sure that there was no problem with him, because the position of the moon had not changed at all from before going to bed.

Since he practiced the Five Qigongs of Changsheng, his physical body has developed some inexplicable connection with the heaven and earth, and his control over the subtleties of his body can almost be said to have reached a peak.

If it wasn't for deliberate control, there would never be any situation of waking up before dawn.

He quickly put on his clothes, returned to the house, picked up the black water knife, and jumped directly onto the roof.

Looking around, there was no light at all in the huge Black Mountain City. In the past, torches would be lit at each city gate.

Not only that, he listened carefully, not to mention human words, not even the chirping of insects and the sound of wind. This Black Mountain City seemed to have become an empty city overnight!

His heart felt slightly tense, and he walked slowly towards the other roof.

After walking past several rooftops, his eyes were attracted by a flash of light. It was a room on the second floor that was lit by candlelight, and a blurry figure was reflected in the window.

He approached gently, and before he could open a small hole in the window, a sound came from the room.

"Who's out there?"

The old doctor's voice came out.

Hearing that it was the old doctor, Qin Jiang felt slightly relaxed. He gently opened the window and walked into the room. The old doctor was sitting at the table, reading medical books.

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Qin Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "You said it's night now?"

The old doctor nodded when he heard this and looked out the window, "The moon is hanging, it's not night, could it be daytime?"

Qin Jiang glanced out the window and nodded suddenly, "Oh~ yes, I was asleep."

As he spoke, he walked to sit down next to the old doctor and put his palm on the handle of the black water knife.

"By the way, old doctor, do you still remember that when you handed me the Five Birds Pill that day, you said you would sell it to me for twenty taels of silver?"

The old doctor looked puzzled, "Two taels of silver? Am I really an old fool? I clearly remember what I said that day, it should be a hundred cents."

"Then why don't you take it out today?" Qin Jiang asked.

The old doctor suddenly laughed, "What? Do you have to give it to me?"

Hearing this, Qin Jiang felt relieved, smiled with satisfaction, and drew out the black water, "Tell me, who are you?"

The old doctor was stunned when he heard this, then tilted his head slightly, showed a strange smile, and his eyes became hollow.

"I'm curious, how did you find out?"

The 'old doctor' didn't open his mouth, but there was still a sound coming out, like the voices of dozens of men and women mixed and overlapping together.

Qin Jiang didn't answer and just slashed at him.

The 'old doctor' flashed and appeared outside the window. Qin Jiang quickly chased after him. As soon as he jumped out of the window, the 'old doctor' disappeared.

There was a noise below, and he looked down. Unexpectedly, the downstairs was filled with people, looking up at him with empty eyes.

Before he could react, the next moment, everyone rushed towards him like crazy.

The crowds of people were so crowded that it created a staircase-like effect. It only took half a breath to squeeze up!

Qin Jiang's eyes flashed, and he directly raised his knife to kill, causing a large amount of blood to spatter.

The crowds came one after another, like ocean waves.

In addition to the inside of the courtyard, the streets outside the courtyard were also full of people, almost filling all the gaps, and there was no end in sight.

Swish, swish, swish!

The light of the knife flickered in the night, like an island in the waves that appeared and disappeared.

I don't know how long he had been slashing, but Qin Jiang's physical strength was almost exhausted, but looking around, there was still no end in sight for the crowd.

When he was exhausted, an inexplicable anger rose in his heart, causing him to swing out a knife. The huge force carried by the knife directly cut off the crowd one meter in front of him.

Could it be that he is going to die again? !

While swiping the knife to draw a circle, a flash of light shone into his eyes from the side. When he looked sideways, he saw a half-burned candlestick.

‘Sir, the night is long and the fire is hard to light. ’

Suddenly, Xian'er's words when he disappeared rang in his mind.

He took a strong breath, exerted force on his feet, directly pushed away the crowd of people, and rushed into the room where the old doctor was just now.

He grabbed the candlestick and threw it directly onto the bed, and the flames suddenly burst into flames.

The blazing flames burned the room, but no temperature could be felt. What was even more strange was that the flames did not burn everything like ordinary flames, but spread everywhere with a liquid-like texture.

There was no trace of burning wherever it passed, but it was more like being melted and corroded.

An ominous premonition emerged in his heart. He realized that something was wrong and jumped out of the window.

A layer of pink light fell, and the crowd just now disappeared.

He looked up at the sky, and the bright moon turned pink. A charming female figure appeared in the moon, with ribbons dancing lightly, like a fairy.

Looking at the dancing figure, Qin Jiang's eyes became blurred.

Swish!

The knife light cut through his arm, and he woke up instantly. He no longer looked directly, but paid attention to the pink moon in the sky with the corner of his eyes.

Hmm~Hmm~

A charming voice came from below. He looked over and the crowd just now appeared again, all doing unspeakable things.

Looking back, the fire in the room was blazing, but it couldn't burn out of the room.

Xian'er's voice echoed in his mind. The night was long and the fire was hard to see. He was sure that he was trapped in an illusion.

Looking around, he felt carefully, but there was no abnormality except that he didn't feel connected to the world.

What a powerful illusion!

Step, step, step.

The crisp footsteps sounded, not hurried or slow, even a little careless.

An invisible pressure pressed on his shoulders, making him unable to move.

The 'old doctor' came in the air, and with his footsteps, his body gradually rose and turned into a young woman.

His bare feet were like jade, and his nails were dyed pink, slightly fluorescent.

Wearing a pink Luo skirt, his face was beautiful, like a combination of Xian'er and Yu'er, with two contradictory temperaments of charm and restraint at the same time.

"Sir, there are so many hardships in this world, why don't you stay here and enjoy the paradise illusion forever?"
