Upon hearing this, Yao's eyes lit up in vain, and he couldn't help but admire Zheng Quchi: "You really made me think differently. For such a difficult thing, with you, I can easily know Qiu's location without any effort at all."
Zheng Quchi thought to himself, it was just a coincidence that a sesame fell into the eye of a needle.
If it was about other things, she really couldn't do anything about it, but she had seen the construction plan of the camp. Others might not remember carefully what "squares" and "dumplings" represented, but she understood and had seen it. You will be familiar with it.
She took a deep breath and did not answer his words: "Don't come to me randomly anymore. You don't know how powerful Yu Wensheng is in Ye Kingdom. He imprisoned Qiu and the others and never dealt with them. Do you think it's wrong?" For what purpose, just to catch you people, maybe your whereabouts have been monitored."
"Don't worry, I have killed all those who followed me. Don't forget what I do." Yao raised his eyebrows and said arrogantly.
killed?
Zheng Quchi pursed his lips and squeezed his palms.
She told herself that this was not the modern era, and it was not surprising that people like them would kill. Different stances, different political opinions, and even national disputes were all settled by killing.
Zheng Quchi, you should open your eyes and take a closer look. Now you no longer live in the modern legal society that emphasizes equality for everyone. No one in this feudal society will protect your safety.
Now you are just a small craftsman in Ye State, Zheng Quchi.
"Um."
You lowered your eyebrows coldly and glared at her: "Don't look at me like that, Zheng Quchi, there is not much difference between you and me."
The look she gave him now made him feel disgusted and irritated.
She is obviously a person in darkness, but her eyes are always bright and innocent, like a handful of clear water, which can reflect all the ugliness and embarrassment of the person looking into the water.
What look?
Zheng Quchi didn't know what he was talking about, but she still lowered her gaze and stopped looking at him to calm the storm.
"You, I will find a way to save Qiu, but I must do what you promised me. I just want to live a stable and free life without being disturbed by you or people like the Mo family."
"As long as you can do it, I will not break the contract."
——
As soon as Zheng Quchi returned to Guixuanling, she began to be busy with the fortifications. She had always been serious about her work and had enough construction site experience. She not only supervised the progress of the fortifications, but also had the time to pay attention to the personal safety of the craftsmen.
A capable leader can know how much she weighs just through the things she arranges.
Gradually, everyone was willing to listen to her and the city wall construction was carried out in an orderly manner.
Even the group of craftsmen who had been prejudiced and slanderous against her have all stopped talking and stopped making trouble after she rescued people.
On this day, after she finished instructing the moving work, she looked back and saw Muke looking for her, and she felt happy.
Mu Ke was entrusted by Wei Yao to send her a blue booklet with a cover but no title.
"What is this?" Zheng Quchi was confused.
Mu Ke smiled and said, "If you open it and take a look, won't you know?"
So, Zheng Quchi opened a page at random, and saw a little man drawn on the paper. The little man's movements were weird.
She had a vague guess in her mind, so she no longer opened and closed it at will, but directly opened the first page.
It's actually Jiu Jiu.
Various essentials are described in detail, and each action is decomposed and described clearly, just like a child's enlightenment.
At the end of the booklet, there is a bonus sentence: Ah Qing, this set of bone-flexing techniques is simple and easy to use. It is a way to avoid the disease of stiffness and restraint and make the muscles and bones sharp.
But every step needs to be precise, from basic to advanced, step by step, without being greedy or careless.
By repeating a set of exercises, you can achieve free contraction of bones and soft bones, agile movements, and a light body. In the later stage, you can even jump to high places and cling to objects.
Does the last sentence mean Qinggong?
Like, but not very similar.
Because Muke once said that she had long missed the best opportunity to practice martial arts, so there was a high probability that she would not be able to practice her internal skills and fly over walls.
However, the effects of strengthening the body and increasing agility were enough to amaze her.
After thanking Uncle Mu, Zheng Quchi couldn't help but follow the paintings in the book.
At the beginning, she tried every method, but none of them met the most basic requirements mentioned above. However, she kept in mind a "step-by-step" and a few "don't be greedy or careless".
Therefore, she slowly corrected the first pose until the posture was as shown in the picture. It also reminded that the best time to exercise every day is to do it before getting up and falling asleep, which can get twice the result with half the effort.
After she memorized the essentials, she exercised diligently every day. Supported by the powerful idea that she could grow taller, Zheng Quchi did not relax even a moment. She would even stretch her legs and bend over to do various difficult tasks in her spare time. challenge.
Perhaps it was because her body was still young, she had just turned sixteen, and her muscles and bones were still soft, so she started practicing Jiujijutsu, and the progress was encouraging. In a few days, she reached the basic requirements of the third form.
After recently practicing Jiu Jiu Jitsu, she found that her body was light and refreshing. She began to look forward to it. If she could practice this method, perhaps her tired body would be able to eliminate complaints and aches.
There are nine postures in one set of Jiu Gu Jiu, and one round of nine postures is one week. She still has six postures left to practice.
Just when she was immersed in her addiction to exercise, a few days had passed, and she suddenly remembered that she had not thanked Wei Yao in person, and there was also the matter of you, which had been delayed to ensure that he would come to see her again.
It's better to take this opportunity and go to the camp to explore the situation.
Wei Yao heard from the soldiers that Sang Xuanqing came to the camp to look for him. His expression was slightly condensed, but he put down his official duties and immediately came out to pick her up.
Seeing that Sang Xuanqing really came to see him, Wei Yao narrowed his eyes and smiled, crossing his arms: "Little Aqing, why do you have time to come to see your brother Wei?"
"I'm not free. I have to come here if I have time." She also raised her lips and smiled at him, and then handed him a large bag of glutinous rice cakes and cakes as souvenirs to express her gratitude.
Wei Yao stretched out his hand to take it and shook it: "Such a generous gift. It's food. How did you know that your elder brother Wei has been short of food and clothing recently, so this is the right time for you?"
Hearing this, Zheng Quchi knew that he was deliberately coaxing her, but he still couldn't help saying: "Brother Wei is a great general in the camp. He usually receives expensive gifts. It's rare that he would like Xuan Qing's shabby food."
"Other things just look good but don't fill my stomach. I just like others to give me food."
The two of them seemed to have forgotten their past grievances, and began to joke with each other and smile at each other as before.
Zheng Quchi cupped his fists and saluted: "Thank you, Brother Wei, for sending me the bone-flexing technique. Recently, I always feel that my whole body is much lighter, and I am less prone to fatigue than before."
Wei Yao was surprised: "What I promised you has not been fulfilled due to official duties. I can only draw a few postures in my spare time every day. Are you ready to get started now? How many postures have you practiced?"
"Three forms."
"It seems that this bone bending technique is quite suitable for you. It can be effective so quickly." Wei Yao nodded repeatedly.
Zheng Quchi said sincerely: "You are so busy on weekdays, but you still care about me...Brother Wei, you have taken the trouble. The album is very detailed, even a person like me who has never practiced Kung Fu can understand it. "
"That's good, it's not too much trouble. You have to practice more in the future and don't waste your talent. By the way, I'm afraid you didn't eat anything during this trip. If you want to join the camp, come and taste it with me. Is there lunch for the army?"
"Okay, Brother Wei, are you eating well in the camp? But Brother Wei is a guard, so he should be treated differently."
"Nonsense, I don't get special treatment. The only one who gets special treatment here is our general, but that's because he has a very bad appetite. He often forgets to eat or just doesn't want to eat. But this worries everyone in our camp. Cook."
"Yeah."
In fact, whether Yu Wensheng's appetite is good or not has nothing to do with Zheng Quchi. She didn't feel much after hearing this.
But she remembered that her husband was also the same. He was often picky about food and didn't eat enough. He was not even happy to eat the food cooked by her brother.
She didn't want to spoil him at first, but he looked so thin and sick, and he refused to eat and drink. She couldn't hold it in, so she had to cook him another meal at home to save him from the pain of stomach disease. No.
After lunch, Wei Yao was interested in taking her to visit the military camp.
"You left Changzongpo with the craftsmen after you finished repairing it. You probably didn't take a good stroll around. Look, this way is... that way is..."
Zheng Quchi thought to herself, why bother wandering around? Although the military camp is complex, she has a virtual map in her mind, so she won't get lost no matter what.
She interrupted Wei Yao and declined: "Brother Wei, there is no need to bother. I am neither a soldier nor a general. This important military place is not for idlers. Although you trust me, it is better to do less than to do more. Thank you for taking the time to take me for a walk, but I have something to do here, so I will go back today."
Hearing this, Wei Yao smiled quietly and stared at her for a moment, his long and far-reaching eyes filled with warmth: "That's right, you are also a busy man now. We have to rely on our little brother Sang for all the city wall fortifications in the county." .”
Zheng Quchi smiled helplessly: "Brother Wei, stop teasing me. I'm leaving. I'll come and play with you when I'm free next time."
He pressed her little head and said with a smile: "You are welcome at any time, but in ten days the general is going to inspect the movements of the nomadic barbarians on the border. I am afraid that I will go with him. If you remember that period, don't come here to look for me. .”
Zheng Quchi raised his eyes to look at him, and saw that he was just smiling at her with a normal expression, and saw nothing unusual.
"We are patrolling the border. How many days will we have to go? Will there be any danger?"
"It should only take a few days. Your brother Wei is superior in strength and intelligence. Who do you think will be more in danger if we encounter a nomadic barbarian?"
She almost blurted out, what about Liu Fengmian?
He is a weak and sick young man who cannot take care of himself. Will he also follow Yu Wensheng to patrol the border?
"Okay, you guys...Brother Wei, please pay attention to your safety. We will meet again when you come back."
"good."
Standing on a high place, watching Sang Xuanqing go down the mountain and leave Changxunpo, Wang Zebang didn't know when he came behind Wei Yao.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was dissatisfied: "The general asked you to lure her into a trap, and this is what you did?"
"What do you mean by luring her into a trap? The general clearly just asked me to test her reaction. What did I do wrong?" Wei Yao crossed his arms and gave Wang Zebang a ruffian smile.
Wang Zebang looked coldly: "Just tell her directly. As long as she is not stupid, she will notice the problem."
"Really? What if she is stupid? So stupid that..." Wei Yao paused and smiled slightly: "What if she insists on jumping into the fire pit?"
Wang Zebang caught a glimpse of his expression and said sarcastically: "Then she has let down a person who sincerely treats her well."
Wei Yao smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes: "She is stained with some tracking powder."
This kind of tracking powder is quite special. It is invisible to the naked eye of ordinary people. Only by applying a special potion on the nose can you smell the special tracking powder smell emitted by the other person.
If you are tracking down a fugitive, you can put the potion in the dog's nose.
This tracking powder can last for half a month, especially for a month.
Wang Zebang was stunned.
This means that Sang Xuanqing had close contact with the Mohist disciple who escaped from the camp.
Wang Zebang frowned and patted Wei Yao on the shoulder, angrily saying, "I don't understand, why do you have to invest so much extra emotion in such a meticulous person?"
Wei Yao slapped him away and said angrily: "I didn't know, maybe this is called fate."
"Then if he finally makes an irreversible decision, what will you do?" Wang Zebang looked into his eyes.
Wei Yao's eyes were focused on the cold air, and his eyes gradually became cold and desolate.
"Dharma, no, tolerance, emotion."
——
After Zheng Quchi returned to the camp, she thought about it carefully and decided to pass on the news she had just received from Wei Yao according to the method of communication taught to her.
She had doubts in her mind, but the specific matter of this matter was only for him to determine for himself. As he said, she was only responsible for providing an "opportunity".
At the same time, she was distraught and wrote another letter, but she held it in her arms, uncertain.
The next day, Mu Ke came to see her again, carrying large and small bags.
Zheng Quchi caught a glimpse of the paper bag tied with a thin hemp rope. It was bulging. At first glance, it looked like a medicine bag?
"Uncle Mu, what is this?"
Muke smiled and said: "This is the tonic your aunt prepared for you after New Year's Day. It can be boiled with food or drank alone. It can be taken once a day and stopped every three days. I will come again after seven days." Take a look at the situation, your aunt asked you to inform her of the situation after drinking, and then make subsequent adjustments."
After Zheng Quchi heard this, she was stunned for a moment. Her eyes were sour and she said movedly: "Uncle Mu, you... are so considerate. Please thank my aunt for me. When I go to sleep, I will definitely go and visit my aunt. Thank you personally.”
After saying that, she added: "I have to pay this amount of money."
Muke made a stern face and pushed her hand back: "You kid, you don't know that this medicine doesn't work. You are so excited and want to pay money. Are you stupid? Put it away quickly, uncle. Auntie is not short of your little silver."
