I Can’t Be a Sword God

Late at night, a lonely moon.

In the Nancheng Temple, candles were lit in the clean room.

Duranke looked at the dispirited apprentice, and sighed with resentment.

"Didn't go inside?" he asked.

"Go in." The apprentice murmured, "But the depth has not been tested..."

"What's the meaning?"

"He...he's too deep! I can't feel the edge at all..."

"I threw the Yin Gathering Pill into the well, and the strengthened ghost was beheaded by him with a sword before it appeared. Then my invisibility talisman couldn't hide from his eyes, so I was caught right away."

When the disciple mentioned it, he was still a little scared.

"You were caught?" Durant immediately looked at his apprentice worriedly, and asked with great concern, "Did you confess to being your teacher?"

"No." The apprentice shook his head resolutely.

Duranke patted his apprentice on the shoulder in relief, "I really deserve to be my teacher's beloved apprentice."

Seeing the master's praise, the apprentice silently swallowed the words "because he didn't ask".

After a while, Daoist Du asked again: "Then they let you come back like this?"

"It's not that simple." The apprentice said: "He took away a gourd of Yin Gathering Pill from me, and said... He also said that he would send two gourds over tomorrow, and this matter will be over..."

"A few gourds gathering yin pills..."

Du Daochang twitched his cheeks in pain.

Nancheng Guan Xiaojia has a small business, and it is not easy to refine a few batches of Juyin pills. That gourd has been used for many years, how many gourds can be promised this night?

"Since they didn't ask about your teacher's inheritance, it must be fine if you don't send it back."

Unexpectedly, the apprentice looked at him seriously, and said very seriously: "Master, how can you not keep your word when you are a human being?"

"Hey." Du Daochang looked surprised: "Why didn't I realize that your kid is so enlightened before."

The apprentice smiled embarrassingly, "Well... I swore a poisonous oath to them before I left."

"There are countless things to do." Du Daochang waved his hand: "As long as you are devout to the Taoist ancestor, he will stop any poisonous oath for you."

"I said that if I don't deliver it as scheduled tomorrow, my parents will die, my master will die suddenly, and my classmates will die, and I will die alone..."

"Open the furnace, alchemy."

Du Daochang stood up without saying a word.

"Hey." The head apprentice let out a sigh of relief, "Then this matter is over."

"It's over?" Du Daozhang's face was livid, "How can it be so easy!"

"Master..." The apprentice immediately became nervous again: "Although there are not many people in Deyun Temple, the little Taoist priest is really a stubble, let's not..."

"No need to say more." Du Daozhang raised his hand: "This time our method is too direct, probing... Actually, there is no need to do it yourself."

The apprentice looked at him silently, and said in his heart that it would be great if you had thought this way earlier.

Duranke was about to go out when he suddenly turned his head and glared at his apprentice.

"Remember to swear next time, don't involve others."

...

Deyun points of view.

Li Chu sat in the yard with his eyes closed, with a sword in front of his knee.

The fox girl walked by and asked, "Master, why didn't you ask who sent that person?"

"If you ask him, he may not tell the truth." Li Chudao: "Just let him pay some price."

"But... I don't know who the enemy in the dark is, it's always a little..." The fox girl was still a little worried.

"Who says I don't know?" Li Chu asked back.

"Huh? Just now you didn't..." The fox girl didn't understand what he meant.

"I didn't know it just now, but I'll know it after I let him go." Li Chu opened his eyes with clear light.

Just now he followed that disciple all the way back to Nancheng Temple with his mind, and confirmed where this person came from.

In fact, before he went back, Li Chu made a good guess. After all, they are newcomers, and those who have a reason to trip them up are nothing more than their peers.

There will be direct competition, which is this one.

Just as he was talking, the dark energy in the well in front of him surged, and the second ghost tonight came out.

"It hurts--"

A skinned ghost with a bright red body climbed up along the edge of the well, and every time it climbed, a bright red bloodstain was left on the ground.

Climbing out, it saw a man and a woman looking at it faintly.

There was a look of anticipation in their eyes.

Is there something wrong?

The Skinner was stunned, but no matter what, it continued to complete the task conscientiously, and roared sinisterly:

"Can you give me your skin—"

"Here, here you go."

Li Chu raised his hand, and threw out a cold green pill, which rolled to the skinning ghost.

Um?

The Skinner was stunned again.

Such a strong Yin Qi, I really want to...

but……

What does he mean by giving me this?

It really wanted to eat this elixir that would enhance its strength, but... felt very disrespectful.

Don't you hear that starving to death will not be eaten?

But……

Grandpa is already dead.

and……

It rolled over and looked at Li Chu with its terrifying protruding eyeballs, and felt that he was quite good-looking.

Maybe this little Taoist is trying to... bribe me?

Um.

After changing his mind a few times, the Skinning Ghost ate the elixir with strong yin energy without hesitation.

boom--

It's that simple to increase the strength of the ghost, its whole body's yin energy suddenly exploded, and its figure also skyrocketed instantly!

"Roar--"

Even the roar became full of air!

It looked at the little Taoist again with its huge eyeballs, and decided that if he could take out a few more pills like this, he could not eat him.

But just after making a decision, it saw the little Taoist slowly draw out his sword.

etc……

he...

Before it could think clearly, it saw a red dragon approaching. Oh, it's hot.

It never imagined that the moment it had just reached the peak of ghost life was the last moment of its ghost life, and there was only one thought in its mind at this moment.

Fuck.

It's all a trick.

...

To Li Chu's surprise, business came early the next morning.

As soon as the door opened in the morning, the fox girl welcomed people in happily.

It was a boy from the hospital.

The little guy looked around, his eyes hesitating, and he seemed to be a little uncertain about De Yun's divided view of strength.

But when he came to Li Chu, he still honestly told his troubles.

"I'm an apprentice at the Nancheng Medical Center, and there has been some evil in our medical center these two days."

When the boy mentioned this matter, there was still some fear on his face.

"My master is the famous Liu Yishou in Nancheng. He used to be a registered disciple in Xuanhu Villa. He is very good at treating trauma, especially proficient in limb replacement."

"My master is also very kind. Every winter, when the weather is cold, many beggars suffer from frostbite. My master will take them in for free and help them heal their wounds. So every time this time comes, there will be many people in the clinic."

"But a strange thing happened two days ago. That night, a patient in the hospital lost an arm inexplicably!"

"Ask him what's going on, and he doesn't know what happened."

"And... the next night, another person lost an arm!"

"My master arranged for a few of our senior brothers to watch the night, and as a result... my senior brother bumped into the person who took the arm away..."

"No, it's not a human, it's a ghost!"

"It also took away my brother's arm..."

"Now we don't dare to stay in the hospital at night, but this is not a long-term solution after all."

"I heard people say that there is a new Deyun temple here, and the Taoist priest there is very powerful...Little Taoist priest, can you help us solve this matter?"

"I will do my best." Li Chu nodded lightly, and then asked with some doubts: "The ghost you mentioned never kills people, but only takes people's arms?"

"Yes." The boy nodded and said, "And...there are a few patients with left hand injuries in the hospital, and they have been fine. It seems that it doesn't need the right hand, it only needs the left hand!"

"Just the left hand?"

Li Chu frowned, not understanding why.

Obviously...the right hand is better than the left.
