Chapter 64 A life
After selling all today’s pills, Song Jie immediately packed up the stall and then said goodbye to Li Caiwei.
After walking out of the central square, he did not go to the Spiritual Medicine Studio to buy medicinal materials as usual, but returned directly to his home.
After closing the courtyard door, Song Jie walked all the way into the room and closed the door again with his backhand.
As soon as he sat down on the bed, he stood up again and paced back and forth in the room.
The reward order in Black Wind Mountain really gave him a sense of crisis.
He is not worried about the robbery cultivators from Black Wind Mountain and the monks from Xinyuefang City going to the scene of the incident to investigate for clues.
He left no obvious traces at the scene of the incident, and almost no monks would suspect him.
Song Jie’s only worry was that someone secretly saw the fight that day.
“Assuming someone was peeping secretly that day, but I have been in peace for a while, that can only mean one thing.
“That is, the people who peeped in secret did not spread the news when there was no profit.
“Perhaps the man in the dark has been waiting for this opportunity, and now that the opportunity has arrived, he may be about to take action.
“Of course, it’s possible that there is no so-called person peeping in secret, and everything is just my imagination.
“No matter what the possibility is, you must take precautions!”
Song Jie’s eyes kept flickering, and his brain was spinning wildly, thinking about what to do next.
The safest way is definitely to run away with the bucket, change to a city far away from Black Wind Mountain, and start over.
But now it is possible that the best running period has been missed.
According to Li Caiwei, the reward order for Black Wind Mountain was issued two days ago.
If the secret peeping person issued a reward order in Black Wind Mountain, he would immediately identify himself as the murderer.
Then it is very likely that he has been targeted by the robbery cultivator of Black Wind Mountain and ran away at this time.
Once they leave Xinyuefang City, they are very likely to be ambushed and hunted by the Black Wind Mountain Jie Xiu.
On the contrary, it is safer to hide at home.
The house we are renting now is close to the center of Xinyuefang City. Once there is a fight, the monks from the three major families will immediately discover it.
Therefore, the robbery cultivators in Black Wind Mountain must not dare to take action directly here.
“If the possible peeping person hasn’t gone to Black Wind Mountain to identify me, then wouldn’t I have missed the opportunity to escape?”
For a time, Song Jie was in a dilemma.
Before the answer is revealed, this matter is like Schrödinger’s cat, making it difficult for Song Jie to make the right decision.
Moreover, it was not easy for him to achieve his current status and fame in Xinyuefang City.
My career is also starting to get on the right track, and I will soon open a store in partnership with Shi Lei.
It would be a bit unwilling to give up everything you have now.
“In the final analysis, I am still too weak, otherwise why would I be so worried.”
Song Jie sighed softly.
After thinking hard for a long time, he still couldn’t make up his mind.
On the one hand, he is reluctant to part with everything he has gained now, and on the other hand, he is also worried that the robbery in Black Wind Mountain is watching him secretly.
Once you leave Xinyuefang City or go to a remote place in Xinyuefang City, you will be attacked immediately.
“If I had known that I would encounter something like this, I would have chosen to join the Alchemy Sect.
“Although the handyman disciples have no status and need to work as cows and horses within the sect, at least they have the protection of the sect.”
Song Jie shook his head, knowing that there was no point in talking about it now.
Moreover, it may not always be a peaceful time in the sect, there may also be a lot of troubles.
Many sect scandals even spread to Xinyuefang City and became the topic of conversation among many monks after dinner.
After thinking for a long time, Song Jie felt that his thoughts were getting more and more confusing.
So I calmed down and ran through several possible development directions.
If there are no so-called peepers, then no matter whether you run away or stay in Xinyuefang City, you will be safe.
In this case, one must choose to stay in Xinyuefang City.
If there is a voyeur, there are two situations.
One is that the peeper has already reported himself to Black Wind Mountain. If he runs away at this time, he will almost die.
Staying in Xinyuefang City still has a glimmer of hope. After all, this is the territory of the three major families, and Black Wind Mountain does not dare to mess around.
Moreover, the place where I rent now is close to the center of Xinyuefang City. Any disturbance will be discovered immediately.
In another situation, the peeper has not reported himself to Black Wind Mountain, so this is the best time to run away.
If you miss this opportunity to run away, you will be back to the first situation, and you will have no choice but to fight for your chance of survival.
“According to these three possible development directions, if you stay in Xinyuefang City, you can find a way out.
“If you choose to run away immediately, you will face a road of death and a road of survival.
“Looking at it this way, when everything is uncertain, staying in Xinyuefang City is a relatively correct choice.”
Song Jie paced back and forth in the room for a while, pondering over his thoughts in his mind.
Finally, he stood still, his eyes full of determination.
“It’s decided! Stay in Xinyuefang City!”
After repeated deliberation just now, Song Jie felt that things might not be as bad as imagined.
Even if there is a voyeur, and the voyeur has reported himself to Black Wind Mountain, things will still turn around.
Although my current cultivation level is low and my strength is insufficient, it does not mean that I can only be at the mercy of others.
He is no match for Black Wind Mountain, but he can resist Black Wind Mountain’s invasion with the help of external forces.
With his current status and reputation in Xinyuefang City, if Heifengshan wants to attack him in Xinyuefang City, the three major families will definitely stop him.
After all, Xinyuefang City is an extremely important industry for the three major families, and it provides a large amount of resources to the three major families every day.
One can imagine the importance the three major families attach to Xinyuefang City.
In the territory of these three major families, and also in the area close to the center of Xinyuefang, if he, a well-known first-level alchemist, was killed by the calamity cultivators of Black Wind Mountain, he would be in trouble.
The face of those three major families will definitely be lost.
The most important thing is that many monks living in Xinyuefang City will question the safety of Xinyuefang City and lose confidence in the protection provided by the three major families.
There is only one result of this, and that is that a large number of monks will move to other cities to settle, and Xinyuefang City will gradually become depressed.
Song Jie believes that this is a result that none of the three major families want to see.
Therefore, whether it is to protect face or protect their own interests, the three major families will not let Heifengshan run amuck in Xinyuefang City.
As long as you make good use of this, you can find a way out of the invasion of Black Wind Mountain.
“However, I cannot place my hope of survival entirely on the three major families.
“More preparations must be made to prevent possible dangers.
“At least you must have some ability to protect yourself and escape when danger comes.”
Thinking of this, Song Jie immediately thought and opened the properties panel.
