Chapter 187 Old Friend

After the bodies of these people were burned to death in a big fire, the man in the bamboo hat put away the storage bags of the three people and returned to the original place to the casual cultivators.

The middle-aged scholar who led the group saw the man in the bamboo hat helping so generously, and hurriedly took the people around him to bow and said: "I am Shi Chun, thank you for saving us."

"Brother Shi, I haven't seen you for many years. Are you all well?" As the voice fell, the man took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a somewhat handsome face.

Shi Chun looked at this familiar face in his mind and asked excitedly: "Are you, Fellow Daoist Song?"

Several fellow casual cultivators on the side were surprised to see that Shi Chun actually knew the foundation-building senior in front of him.

Song Qingming nodded and smiled, "It's fate. We haven't seen each other for more than ten years. I didn't expect to meet Brother Shi again here."

"Fellow Daoist Song, no, I should call you Senior Song. Thank you for your help this time. Otherwise, the prey we killed with great difficulty would be smashed by the Fire Wolf Gang again."

Shi Chun's words were obviously full of envy. Compared with Song Qingming, who had become a high-level foundation-building cultivator, more than ten years had passed, and Shi Chun's cultivation had only improved by one level.

It was really hard for him to imagine that Song Qingming, whose cultivation was not particularly outstanding in the past, had successfully built a foundation so quickly.

Back then, the two of them could still drink and talk happily, but today, his status and Song Qingming's were very different, and he couldn't help but be more careful in his words.

"We have known each other for many years, and Brother Shi has helped me before. Don't be too concerned about these empty formalities. You can't stay in a place of trouble for long. Fellow Taoists, please leave here quickly with me and talk somewhere else!"

"Then I'll listen to you!" Shi Chun nodded, and without further courtesy, he quickly ordered the others to go and collect the materials of the blue ox beast on the ground.

Fearing that he had just killed the members of the Fire Wolf Gang and would bring revenge to Shi Chun and the others, Song Qingming simply gave up flying alone on the sword and disguised himself as a Qi Refining cultivator. He spent an extra day to send Shi Chun and the others back to Guiyunfang.

Since leaving here that year, Song Qingming has not been to Guiyunfang for many years. He didn't expect that the tragic monster riots that year had no impact on this market. The crowds coming and going on the streets were very dense. Compared with those years, Guiyunfang now seems to be more prosperous.

After Shi Chun and his team went to the market square to hand in the task, Song Qingming took the initiative to invite Shi Chun to the Tianfeng Tower for a drink. However, when they arrived at the door, they found that although it was still a restaurant, it was no longer called Tianfeng Tower.

After asking inside, they found that the owner of Tianfeng Tower had changed a long time ago, and the spiritual chef Hu Daozhen, who he knew back then, had also left Guiyunfang.

"More than a decade has passed in a flash. I didn't expect that things have changed a lot now. I'm afraid that you, Brother Shi, are the only one who still knows me in Guiyunfang." Song Qingming picked up a glass of spiritual wine and drank it all.

Shi Chun also said with some emotion: "Since Brother Zhang and his junior sister went to Zheng State, I am now like a lonely person. Now I have completely offended the people of the Fire Wolf Gang. I don't want to stay in Guiyunfang anymore. Brother Song, next time I come, maybe I won't be here anymore."

On the way back, Shi Chun had already told Song Qingming about what happened to him in the past few years, which naturally included the fact that Zhang Tieshan and Qin Yu Niang went to Zheng State.

Zhang Tieshan was originally a cultivator from Zheng State. After the monster turmoil, it had a great impact on Zheng State. Many local forces were reshuffled. Many cultivators from Zheng State who had fled abroad in the past have returned to their homeland in recent years, including Zhang Tieshan, who had been wandering abroad for many years and was homesick.

And Qin Yu Niang, Shi Chun's junior sister, had already developed feelings for Zhang Tieshan a few years ago. They had become Taoist couples under the witness of Shi Chun. This time, she simply followed Zhang Tieshan to Zheng State.

It took Shi Chun more than ten years to reach the seventh level of Qi Refining. It can be seen that it is not easy for these casual cultivators without foundation to practice. It is no wonder that Zhang Tieshan, a former family cultivator, is determined to return to Zheng State.

"Brother Shi, if you really don't want to stay in Guiyunfang and don't know where to go, you can also consider coming to Funiushan in Qinghe County to find me. Although my Song family is not a powerful immortal cultivation family, it is still influential in Qinghe County. It is not difficult to help you find a place to stay."

Hearing Song Qingming's words, Shi Chun was stunned for a while, and then he said: "Thank you for your concern, Brother Song. I haven't made up my mind about this matter yet. If I really decide to leave Guiyunfang, I will consider your proposal carefully."

The two have not seen each other for many years, so naturally there are many topics to talk about. It was not until they were full of wine and food that Song Qingming said goodbye to Shi Chun reluctantly and left Guiyunfang alone.

Strangely enough, he met Shi Chun twice in the Floating Cloud Mountains, both times after he had survived a disaster. He always felt that this guy was like his destined benefactor.

Meeting Shi Chun this time was also a very coincidental thing for Song Qingming. Seeing a friend in danger, Song Qingming would naturally not refuse to help.

In addition, he had been in the hands of several demon kings for the past few months, and was ordered around by them. He lived in fear. The guys from the Fire Wolf Gang who liked to bully the weak were unlucky to meet Song Qingming who had been frustrated for so long.

After leaving Guiyunfang, Song Qingming found a secluded place and turned out the storage bags of the guys from the Fire Wolf Gang.

Now that his cultivation has reached the foundation-building stage, and he is also a cultivator who is proficient in formations, it is naturally easy for him to crack the restrictions of these storage bags. It didn't take him much time to open these storage bags.

"Are they all so poor? I really don't know how they cultivate."

Looking at the pile of low-level spiritual objects in front of him, which could not be sold for a hundred spiritual stones in total, Song Qingming shook his head in disappointment. He thought that these people who liked to rob and loot would have some good things on them.

After sighing, he quickly put away these things, and then Song Qingming directly released the flying sword, which turned into a green light and disappeared on the spot.

This time, there was no news sent back after such a long time. Song Qingming estimated that those people on Funiu Mountain must have been very anxious.

How come these Qi Refining cultivators don't have any good things on them?"
