Cataclysm King - #363 - Chapter 363 Thief, Salesman, Gambler, Smoker

This Netherworld train called [Neon] stopped at the Rose Town platform, specifically to pick up Ji Xun and Qin Rushi.

As soon as they got in the car and the door closed, they seemed to have entered an isolated world that no living person should touch.

Before, my level was too low to understand.

Now that the level is higher, Ji Xun realizes that this is some kind of high-level barrier that he still doesn’t understand.

The thick fairy spirit in the carriage is of great benefit to the people of the Bai family, but to the card masters of other sequences, it is like the death breath of the underworld. Deep inside, it gives people a suffocating and oppressive feeling like drowning.

Ji Xun took a closer look and saw that there was vague hostility from all directions.

He also understood a little bit that Qin Ru’s lying down and riding to the Thieves City was not sneaking around, but more like “playing in a gym and fighting in an arena.”

The people of the Bai family have already set up their posture, waiting for her to face the difficulty.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, Qin Ruzhi, with her hair tied up high, had a cold look on her face.

Ji Xun had noticed before that Qin Rushi’s calm mood was a bit cold.

She went to the Bai family this time for the two sacred objects of the Immortal family.

But not entirely.

When the entire Qin family was wiped out, the Bai family’s methods behind the scenes were disgraceful.

Qin Ruzhi doesn’t have much blood kinship with the Bai family.

The current Bai family does not want her, an outsider, to go back and seize power.

Seemingly noticing Ji Xun’s gaze, Qin Ru turned her head and glanced at Ji Xun. When their eyes touched, she smiled calmly: “Let’s go, let’s go to the carriage.”

Ji Xun: “Yeah.”

As soon as I walked into the carriage, the noise was like firecrackers hitting my ears, making me feel trance-like for a moment.

“Hahaha, six six six, leopard! Give me money, give me money!”

“Selling blood flower ointment. Aged bone meal, incorruptible skin, raw soul fragments.”

“Uncle, please stop smoking. There is no ventilation in the carriage. I’m almost suffocated.”

“Hey, little girl, Tao Zi, is impatient. What’s the price?”

“Damn it, there’s a thief! My money bag was stolen! Conductor, conductor!”

“.”

Ji Xun looked at the crowded carriage and his expression was slightly startled.

He had already prepared for encountering a weird situation like last time.

Unexpectedly, there was such a scene in the carriage.

A promiscuous prostitute, a salesman carrying a cargo box, a gambler playing cards in full swing on the table, a smoker whose face is covered by smoke, a magician performing for children, and a sneaky pickpocket.

Ji Xun glanced over and took a look at the hundreds of people crammed into the carriage.

Just like a normal civilian carriage, there are passengers from various low-level professions here.

Ji Xunming knew that the people in this carriage were definitely not ordinary.

But it seems that there are no flaws at all.

There is absolutely no flaw in either his “qi” or his demeanor.

“Tsk, tsk, interesting.”

When Ji Xun saw this, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Precisely because I didn’t see any flaws, I found it even more interesting.

Too many people.

There were so many people that the carriage corridors were filled with people.

If you want to walk through the aisle, you have to squeeze through the crowd.

The air was filled with the strange smell of various foot odors, sweat, and cheap makeup.

Ji Xun didn’t care.

I am a circus clown, so seeing this noisy scene feels like I am going home.

But Qin Ru seemed a little embarrassed.

She was wearing a black cheongsam with gold patterns and exquisite makeup. Everything about her body was incompatible with the “turbidity” in the carriage.

It feels like someone is deliberately stepping on a proud and delicate rose in the mud to wear away its energy.

Regardless of whether she entered the carriage or not, if she hesitated, she would be disqualified.

There is no room for standing or sitting.

She, an “outsider”, was not welcome in the carriage.

If Qin Ru came alone, maybe this situation would really make her a little embarrassed.

Ji Xun keenly captured the subtle repulsive atmosphere in the carriage. Seeing this scene, he raised his arm in a gentlemanly manner and asked: “Aunt Qin, let’s go in and find a seat?”

“Um.”

Qin Ru smiled elegantly and reached out to hold his arm naturally.

This move immediately made the atmosphere of anxious confrontation dissipate.

Ji Xun, a third party, unexpectedly entered the situation, breaking a certain deadlock that was originally designed.

The two of them walked into the car with dirty air, and Ji Xun immediately noticed that many eyes were on him.

Malice, suspicion, suspicion, sarcasm, coldness, many emotions.

Ji Xun didn’t care at all.

With Qin Ru’s current strength, not everyone can plot against him.

Ji Xun estimated that all the weird guys in this carriage might not be able to do anything to the two of them.

But this train will travel for a long time, and it is difficult to predict any changes.

The later Qin Ru leaks his trump card, the more favorable the situation will be for the two of them.

There will even be some big surprises for the Bai family behind the scenes.

What Ji Xun found strange was that he clearly felt someone was watching him, but the source was not just the passengers in the carriage.

There seems to be some invisible existence in the dark.

“Xianjia?”

Ji Xun deduced it, and it seemed that this was the only possibility.

Qin Ru didn’t elaborate, so there must be some unexplained “rules” on this train.

This sense of exploration in the face of the unknown made Ji Xun more and more interesting.

If he were to board this Netherworld train alone, of course he should be more cautious.

But not now.

If you want to catch a big fish in a puddle of muddy water, the best way is to put your hand in it.

I’m not afraid of being bitten, and I have a golden thigh to support me.

Ji Xun led Qin Rushi into the carriage without any scruples.

He leaned forward slightly, blocking most of the malicious intent.

After taking only two steps, he was blocked by a crowd of people.

Ji Xun wanted to squeeze out a way.

But I just tried it, and after taking a few steps, I suddenly found that I seemed to have hit a big mountain and couldn’t move?

I turned my head and saw an old man with gray hair, a woman wearing a flowered jacket, and a Lifu wearing a short coat with shiny muscles.

Ji Xun also sighed secretly: “This guy is so powerful!”

My current strength is comparable to that of a sixth-level pure strength card master, but now I can’t even move a carrying force?

Faintly perceiving with focused eyes, at the level of “mind”, it seems as if I see a strong giant bear blocking it.

And when I looked at it again, the passengers around me didn’t feel normal either.

The old woman has a fox face with sharp horns, the woman in the flowered coat has a snake waist, and the boy in the felt hat has a hedgehog nose.

They look like ordinary people, but if you look closely, none of them look normal.

A dilemma.

Upon closer inspection, Ji Xun realized that all the passengers in the carriage seemed to have a fairy close to them.

But this was a special train for the Bai family, so he wasn’t too surprised.

Qin Ruzhi saw that those “people” didn’t want them to leave the carriage, and said calmly: “Just stand for a while. It’s okay.”

Ji Xun nodded as he listened.

“Kangcha~”

“Kangcha~”

“.”

The sound of wheels rubbing against the rails was mixed with the din in the carriage, constantly tormenting one’s mental hearing.

The people listening gradually became agitated.

Ji Xun has never found “standing tickets” so difficult since he became a card master.

It’s not just a physical stiffness, it seems to be restricted by some mysterious power.

It feels like the chess pieces of destiny are fixed on the chessboard, and you are in the middle of the game, unable to act independently.

Ji Xun was like this, but Qin Rushi, who was wearing high heels next to him, was afraid that he would have to endure even more.

It’s not that I can’t bear the pressure of the mysterious level, it’s more likely that I feel uncomfortable being incompatible with the environment.

Qin Ru was too eye-catching.

Even with Ji Xun taking cover to share the firepower, she was like a delicate rose at the moment, shining brightly in the muddy carriage.

It is difficult for others to deal with the God Thief sequence card master, and the Bai family has many ways to deal with their own exclusive sequence.

It is not easy for Qin Ru to maintain that fairy spirit.

At this moment, there was a “clang” and the train jolted for a moment as if something had crushed it.

The crowd of people standing in the carriage came over like a wave. Ji Xun was pushed by the crowd behind him, staggering and almost falling.

He happened to bump into Qin Rushi in front of him.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Ji Xun hugged her waist, and then the two of them steadied themselves.

I wanted to put it down, but the people behind me had already squeezed in.

Ji Xun simply continued to put his hands on her waist, protecting others from getting close.

There was almost no room in the aisle, and now those people were crowding in, and the two of them were very close to each other.

They were slightly sideways just now, but now they are facing each other, and there is a subtle feeling of intimacy.

Looking up, I saw a pretty face close at hand.

Qin Rushi had a smile between his brows, but his expression remained indifferent.

Ji Xun was focused on nothing else, and Qin Rushi didn’t mind at all.

By now Ji Xun could vaguely understand what was going on with this train. It was a bunch of immortals who wanted to break Qin Rushi’s spirit first.

If we really stand like this all the way to the Thieves City, I’m afraid all the immortal energy will be polluted.

The atmosphere in the carriage was a bit strange.

The two of them seemed like isolated outsiders.

I don’t know how long the train will run, and I can’t talk about business.

Ji Xun would not let the atmosphere get cold. He felt a delicate touch on his hand protecting Qin Rushi’s lower back, and he said casually: “It’s been a long time since I saw Aunt Qin wearing a cheongsam.”

Qin Ru’s beautiful eyes turned: “Oh, really?”

At the same time, she also asked: “I designed it myself, how about it?”

She was wearing a black gold cheongsam that hugged her curves, gently wrapping her graceful figure and outlining her wonderful curves.

The high-slit design exposes the fair legs just right, and the subtle yet charming sexiness is looming.

Ji Xun’s hand caressed the satin material and commented: “Yeah. It looks good.”

Qin Ru listened to the compliment, with a slight smile in her soft eyes, and sneered: “Thank you~”

There was flowing darkness outside the car window, and I didn’t know where I was going, it was quite bumpy.

The passengers in the carriage would always come in waves.

There were also a few men who looked at Qin Rushi with obviously evil intentions and wanted to take the opportunity to touch him.

Ji Xun simply blocked Qin Rushi in front of him, holding his slender waist with one hand and protecting it with the other.

This kind of protection seemed to isolate the tackiness, and Qin Rushi’s embarrassing situation was quietly resolved.

Even if there was relatively close physical contact, Qin Rushi’s face showed no trace of her little daughter’s shyness, and she always looked calm and elegant.

The other party was open-minded, and Ji Xun certainly didn’t notice.

Although the two had known each other for a long time, he realized that this was the first time he had observed Aunt Qin so closely.

It’s really a pair of exquisite facial features that the more you look at it, the more impeccable you feel.

Especially the intellectual and dignified charm between the eyebrows makes people feel more and more profound the more they look at it.

Qin Ru looked at Ji Xun as he looked at himself. There was no grudge in his heart at all. Instead, his eyes were as warm as the spring breeze and asked, “What? What’s wrong with your makeup today?”

Ji Xun said seriously, but in a joking tone: “I think Aunt Qin is getting more and more beautiful.”

Qin Ru smiled and did not deny it. He responded generously: “Yes. Thank you for the compliment.”

The neckline of the cheongsam is slightly low, perfectly revealing the slender arc of the neck and the soft outline between the collarbones. From Ji Xun’s perspective, he can just see the majestic white flowers and the deep career line.

Just as their chests were touching, both of them could clearly feel each other’s heartbeat, and the posture was inevitably intimate.

Strangely enough, Ji Xun had clearly seen Qin Rushi naked more than once, but at this moment he always felt that this occasional glance made some thoughts in his heart slightly agitated.

Probably because of some tacit approval, this idea became stronger and stronger.

I don’t know how long it took, but there was another bump in the car. Ji Xun’s hand unconsciously slipped from Qin Rushi’s waist to her straight buttocks.

He didn’t take it away either, and put it there by some strange coincidence.

It has a more delicate touch than cheongsam satin, and is soft to the touch.

Qin Rushi glanced at him and said nothing.

After waiting for a few seconds, she glanced at Ji Xun again, and then reminded her: “You are fascinated by the [Fox Fairy] lady behind you.”

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had realized it in hindsight: “Oh?”

Hearing this, he was actually not too surprised.

Only then did he confirm that he was really under a spell.

After all, he had just experienced the happy dream of the Moon God. Ji Xun was actually on guard when his heart was agitated just now.

The inexplicable restlessness can be said to be a whim at first, but later it becomes unnatural.

Qin Rushi’s tone rose slightly and she repeated: “Oh?”

The tone seemed to imply: So, hands?

Seeing Ji Xun’s confused expression, Qin Ru was surprised for a moment.

Then he smiled helplessly.

She said nothing more, as if she acquiesced to this behavior.

Ji Xun was not entirely greedy for the gentle touch, but was in a state of enlightenment.

At that moment, enlightenment appeared: “You have gained insights in the crisis, your knowledge of ‘Spell·Fox Fairy’s Charm’ has been improved, and your illusion proficiency is +312.”

Ji Xun understood the essence of this spell.

This ride is special.

Qin Rushi also saw it.

This kind of relationship is very subtle.

This made the originally painful car ride suddenly seem like a good time.

At least Ji Xun felt good about it.

It was obviously a game aimed at Qin Rushi, so the two of them ignored the exchanges with others and instead got involved in the game.

But if they don’t look for trouble, trouble will find them.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the time in the carriage was as noisy and chaotic as the sounds.

The card players are still playing cards loudly, the smokers are still smoking, and the vendors are still walking around

Gradually, a thick layer of smoke filled the air above the carriage.

Ji Xun choked from the smoke.

“You have gained some insights in the crisis, your knowledge of ‘Immortal Technique·Smoke and Miasma Realm’ is +124, and your poison resistance is +33.”

Looking at the prompts in the enlightenment, he understood that it was the middle-aged man smoking in the third row who took action.

And it’s been a long time coming.

However, he underestimated Ji Xun’s toxin resistance.

[Blood Plague] The modified body gave him super high resistance to toxins.

This smoke, which would cause ordinary fifth-level card masters to suffer heavy losses, had no effect on him.

Qin Ru had already understood it.

This method was not aimed at her, but to “teach” Ji Xun, an outsider who was meddling in the Bai family’s affairs.

She knew Ji Xun’s strength but didn’t remind him.

After all, Qin Ru knew that if the Xian family on this train took action and did not get any benefits, he would not let it go like this.

There will definitely be some compensation.

That is a big opportunity for card masters.

It is useless for others to use it, but Ji Xun’s career sequence is useful.

The two of them just watched quietly what these “people” were going to do.

However, something unexpected happened without warning.

Ji Xun suddenly shuddered.

Qin Ru looked at his expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ji Xun raised his right hand and looked at it. Looking at the five bare fingers, he said, “My ring was stolen.”

The train was shaking just now, and he was protecting Qin Rushi with his right hand, but without noticing, the ring disappeared.

What surprised him was that the other party allowed him to steal the ring on his finger without him noticing?

What method is this?

Qin Rushi looked at the people in the carriage with narrowed eyes and said: “It’s using immortal magic. I’m afraid it will be difficult to find. Did you lose anything important?”

She probably guessed what method the thief used.

Once you succeed, it will be troublesome to get it back.

When Ji Xun heard this, his expression changed slightly: “The storage ring doesn’t matter. I lost that [ring] too.”

Previously, some important things were placed in oil paintings, so losing two storage rings would not be a big problem.

The key is that the [God Thief Ring] is lost.

When Qin Ru heard this, he also frowned.

That ring is one of the three inherited treasures of the Bai family. It would be really troublesome to lose it.

It seemed that the Bai family came prepared and already knew that the ring was in Ji Xun’s hands.

But before Qin Ru wanted to find the thief himself, Ji Xun smiled calmly: “It’s okay. If I only steal the storage ring, there is nothing I can do. Unfortunately, that guy wants to steal the [ring].”

Qin Ru was confused and cast a questioning look: “???”

Ji Xundao: “The thief will take the initiative to send it back.”

If it is the [God Thief’s Ring] that belonged to the Bai family, then that’s it, everyone in the Bai family can get it.

It’s a pity that the ring has a weapon spirit that recognizes its owner.

It fell into the hands of others. Not only did Ji Xun know that the ring was in the hands of someone in the fifth row, the group playing cards.

He even knew that that guy was going to be in trouble.

as expected.

As soon as he finished speaking, a horrified scream sounded in the carriage: “Ah!”

The guy in the felt hat suddenly jumped up from his seat.

It was as if he had gotten a piece of red-hot iron, and he wanted to throw it away in panic.

Taking a closer look, it was an ancient ring that exuded a strange red light.

However, no matter how hard the guy tried, the ring seemed to be stuck on his finger and he couldn’t shake it off.

And visible to the naked eye, the guy’s entire arm shriveled up rapidly, and it spread to his body in an instant.

Even if a white rat from the Immortal Family appeared behind him, he couldn’t stop it at all. He was about to die on the spot.

Ji Xun raised the corner of his mouth slightly when he saw this scene.

Wangcai recognizes its owner, and it is a “little evil god”.

Its pollution is not harmful to Ji Xun, but to others, it is a fatal threat.

Upon seeing this, Qin Ru on the side instantly dissipated the worry that had appeared on his brows, revealing a relaxed expression as if he was just watching the show.

And the rat man’s scream seemed to press a pause button on the carriage.

Everyone in the carriage looked at Ji Xun and the two of them.
