Chapter 688: Thief
"I don't want to! How tiring it is to be an empress! I want to be a princess! Hee-hee! Li Fei'er ran forward, leaving behind a silver bell-like laughter.
The two of them watched many scenic spots in the capital for two days in a row, Li Fei'er finally had fun, tomorrow is the day when the martial arts conference begins, and the two finally put away their fun and decided to go to Jiufeng Mountain.
Speaking of Jiufeng Mountain, it was also a famous scenic spot in the capital, but unlike the place where the two of them walked these days, this scenic spot has only risen in recent years, not a legacy of history, when the two saw the nine peaks in front of them, they couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, they really couldn't imagine that this was actually built by man.
Yes, Jiufeng Mountain is nine peaks several hundred meters high, with green trees and flowers on it, all kinds of small animals, like a wild place, but it is such nine peaks, before, it was actually a flat land! In myths, immortals can move mountains and seas, and now, with technology, people can actually do it.
"This ...... Is it really a man-made mountain? Li Fei'er was dumbfounded.
Xi Bai nodded, he found that he was afraid that he was really a dirt bun. Jiufeng Mountain is a scenic spot, but it is not all, in fact, in the early stage of construction, it was originally intended to be built into a villa area, and then the environment was too good, attracting a large number of tourists, and it became a scenic spot.
But on top of this mountain, there is still land purchased by wealthy officials, which is considered a private place, so this Jiufeng Mountain is a place where attractions and private residences are mixed.
These nine peaks are about the same height, but the style is different, such as the leftmost peak, which has many glass buildings on it, revealing a sci-fi feel, and it is said that on that peak, a large area of land has been built into a science base, of course, a private science base.
On some peaks, there are villas of different styles, which is also the original intention of Jiufeng Mountain, there are five such peaks, but the villas are also different, but they have become different scenery.
And the middle of a mountain, there are also large buildings on it, but they are all ancient Chinese style, surrounded by green trees, quite the meaning of the pastoral villa, that mountain villa, is the four great families of martial arts, the Jiang family.
"Let's go, let's go up and have a look." Xi Bai let out a long breath and raised his feet and walked towards the peak in the middle.
In fact, there are still a lot of tourists here, many of them are ordinary people, occasionally Xi Bai seems to hear a few words of the martial arts conference, he was stunned for a moment, here, it seems that the martial arts conference is not a secret, but many people know, but think about it, this is not ancient, where is there any strict confidential news, and this does not seem to need to be kept secret.
Xi Bai and the two were mixed in the crowd, except for Li Fei'er's appearance was more attention-grabbing, but it was no different from other tourists, mountaineering was originally for fun, and there were beautiful scenery around, so it was not boring, but Xi Bai originally planned to listen to the news about the martial arts conference, but he found nothing, which made him a little disappointed, it seems that ordinary people, that is, they are limited to knowing that there is a martial arts conference.
Walking on the mountain trail, Xi Bai's mood was also very peaceful, but he suddenly felt that someone was approaching the two, originally he didn't care, after all, everyone was walking and climbing the mountain, but the reason why he noticed the person behind him was because the other party's footsteps were a little erratic, and at first glance, he was not weak, Xi Bai's eyes lit up, and he met someone in the martial arts!
It's just that he didn't wait for him to have other thoughts, the person behind him had already arrived behind them, because Xi Bai's spirit was very concentrated, under his mental perception, it was actually no different from seeing the other party, and the other party's every move was in his "eyes". Then he saw that when the other party passed by Li Fei'er's side, his right hand shook quickly, and as a result, a jade chain on Li Fei'er's wrist disappeared.
Xi Bai's face changed, there was a thief! The guy behind him is actually a thief, and his skills are quite clever, you must know that Li Fei'er is also a martial artist, and he is unaware, even if he doesn't happen to notice the other party, I'm afraid it will be difficult to detect the other party's actions.
Just when Xi Bai was stunned, the other party had already passed him and Li Fei'er, and continued to walk towards the mountain with a swagger, Xi Bai looked up and found that the other party was very slender, with broad shoulders, and a blue sportswear, which was not conspicuous at all.
"Friend, please wait a minute." Xi Bai naturally won't let the other party get away, although the jade chain is not valuable and has no commemorative value, but being stolen is an unpleasant thing.
The figure in front of him was stunned, and Xi Bai originally thought that the other party would run away immediately, but it turned out to be very unexpected, the other party actually stopped and turned around.
"Friends calling me? Is there something wrong? That person's eyes swept over Xi Bai and Li Fei'er, with a face that didn't know the truth, and his acting skills were quite good!
Xi Bai is also observing the other party, this person is not very old, should be less than thirty years old, his appearance is medium to upper, but the two eyebrows are a little exaggerated, obliquely into the sideburns, like outstretched wings.
"Friend, I don't think you're a beggar, and besides, the jade chain isn't worth much, so I think it's better to return it to us." Xi Bai's eyes narrowed and said.
The man's face changed, although he felt exposed when Xi Bai called him, but he still had some fantasies, but when he heard Xi Bai say this, he knew that Xi Bai really knew what he had just done.
Li Fei'er originally felt that Xi Bai was a little inexplicable when she stopped the other party, but when she heard the jade chain, she glanced down at her wrist, and immediately knew what was going on, and frowned and said, "Give me back the jade chain." ”
The man glanced at Xi Bai deeply, and suddenly smiled and said: "I didn't expect my friend to be a master, I really lost my eyes, if you want the jade chain, it's okay, as long as you can catch me up before you reach the halfway up the mountain, I will return the jade chain to you, otherwise you can borrow me to play for a few days." ”
After the man finished speaking, he waved at Xi Bai, but his body spun around, and he snorted forward, only to see the other party's body fluttering, ignoring the pedestrians on the road and running towards the mountain quickly.
Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, and he was a little angry in his heart, but when it came to competing for light skills, he was really not afraid of the other party! And he was also playful, he couldn't help sneering, said to Li Fei'er and waited for me, and chased after the other party.
Li Fei'er wanted to stop the other party, but it was too late, and the passers-by on the side didn't seem to expect that there would be people in the martial arts, but their eyes couldn't catch up with Xi Bai and the thief, but now that there are more people in the martial arts, everyone is not surprised, besides, this is Jiufeng Mountain, the martial arts conference is about to be held, and one or two people in the martial arts will appear, so what is it.
But it was said that Xi Bai transported the "getaway" to the extreme, and his eyes quickly searched for the figure of the thief in the crowd, and the other party's blue sportswear was still very recognizable, originally he thought that with his light skills, it should not be very difficult to catch up with the other party.
But what he didn't expect was that even if he used all his strength, he was just able to keep his original distance from the other party! You must know that he is now in the realm of an innate master, and when he is prompting internal force, his explosive power is extremely powerful, and although "Getaway" is not a light skill known for its speed, it is dexterous and agile, which is more suitable for walking through this crowd.
But even so, Xi Bai didn't catch up with the thief in front of him, which made Xi Bai's face a little ugly, originally he felt that his strength was already very good, maybe not as good as some old monsters, but in the younger generation, he was definitely the number one in the ranks, but he suddenly met someone who was about the same age as him, and he lost to the other party! Although this is only a light effort, although in fact he did not lose......
But Xi Bai was still a little unacceptable, he probably didn't expect that he would have such a strong competitive spirit.
Each peak of Jiufeng Mountain is not high, and it is only halfway up the mountain, and the speed of the two is fast, so in the blink of an eye, they are halfway up the mountain.
Xi Bai looked up and saw that there was a three-way intersection in front of him, which was the road leading to the top of the mountain and the left and right sides, which should be halfway up the mountain, and he was more than ten meters away from the thief in front of him, more than ten meters, in normal times, Xi Bai's body moved, and he almost arrived, but it was such a close distance, he couldn't catch up with the person in front.
Xi Bai gritted his teeth, he didn't want to lose! Just when he was in a hurry, the little point of light in his dantian suddenly moved, like a swimming fish, rushing towards the meridian pulses of his legs, it was the yuan force.
In the past few days, Xi Bai has not given up his cultivation of Yuan Li, and he has also tried to cultivate at noon, although the effect is slightly better, but it is far inferior to in that strange space, even in reality, and even the effect seems to be worse than in "Breaking the Void".
So these days, although the point of light in his dantian has become a little bigger, it is still not as big as the first point of light. Fortunately, it seems that it can be reluctantly used now.
Just when the light point Yuan Force reached Xi Bai's legs, Xi Bai suddenly had a feeling that as long as he took a step, he would be able to catch up with the thief in front of him, so he did the same, just like before, he still used the "getaway" to take a step forward.
As a result, his figure flashed, and in this flash, it was extremely fast, comparable to a bullet! At that speed, even Xi Bai himself didn't expect it, if he really wanted to describe it, I am afraid that only the four words of shrinking the ground into inches can describe it!
Xi Bai was overjoyed in his heart, he really caught up with the other party, he instantly got behind the other party, put his right hand forward, hooked the other party's shoulder, and said: "Friend, I didn't expect your speed to be so fast, I almost couldn't catch up, but now you can return the jade chain to me." ”
was hooked by Xi Bai's shoulder, the thief's body was also shocked, and he turned around in an instant, looking at Xi Bai with a shocked face, obviously he didn't expect that Xi Bai would be able to catch up with him.
