In the early morning of this day, the courtyard was full of dew, and a few birds were noisy on the branches, for fear that someone would be sleeping in the house.
In the yard, Banxue imitated the method taught by Ning Changge and was breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. She felt light and refreshed all over her body.
Standing beside them were Ning Changge and Ye Ling. Ning Changge said: "I didn't expect Banxue's talent to be so high. I only taught her once and now she can use it freely. I can't keep up with her."
Ye Lingyan said: "Everyone has different talents. People like Banxue who are in tune with the Tao will have an unlimited future. This time you walk with me, not only are you not unlucky, but you have found a good wife. Not bad, right?"
Ning Changge's face turned red and he quickly said: "Nonsense... nonsense, me, me, I didn't think that way."
"Okay! Okay!" Ye Ling hugged Ning Changge's shoulders and said with a smile: "If you have flowers, you have to break them. Don't wait until there are no flowers. Stop pretending to be reserved. You can't wait for others. Can the girl speak first?"
Ning Changge didn't answer, staring at Banxue, but found that Banxue's breath was suddenly confused, so he hurried forward, pressed Banxue's shoulders, and woke her up: "Banxue, what's wrong with you? ?”
Banxue's face turned slightly rosy. She was just shy and flustered because she overheard the conversation between the two people, and her luck was ruined. However, she did not dare to tell the truth, so she could only say: "Maybe I am not skilled enough, so I made a mistake."
"That's it," Ning Changge smiled and comforted: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, just practice a few more times and it will be fine."
Banxue nodded, glanced at Ye Ling, and saw that he was smiling but not smiling, as if he had seen through everything.
Banxue blushed and lowered her head. Ye Ling realized that he was a little bright and said, "I'm going to see my elder brother, and you guys can talk."
After Ye Ling left, Ning Changge said, "Let's do it again."
"Um!"
…………
In the small room, Xu Zheng was sitting on a chair, and the unconscious Song Zheng was lying on the bed next to him.
Not long after, Ye Ling knocked on the door and walked in, saying to Xu Zheng: "Brother, I've been watching all night. Why don't you go and have a rest? I'll take care of Mr. Song here."
Xu Zheng said without blinking: "If someone comes to kill people and silence them, can you stop them?"
Ye Ling was speechless after hearing this. With his current level of cultivation, it would be very difficult.
He sat down, looked at Song Zheng, and suddenly remembered something and said, "I remember before Mr. Song left the capital, the emperor gave him a purple gold whip, which can mobilize the fortune of the dynasty. Why don't you see this artifact?"
Xu Zheng opened his eyes slightly and said, "Everything will only become clear after he wakes up."
As he spoke, Song Zheng, who was lying on the ground, snorted softly. Xu Zheng immediately stepped forward, placed his hands on Song Zheng's meridians, and channeled some Tao power into it.
Song Zheng slowly opened his eyes, and Ye Ling said: "Master Song, Master Song, do you still remember me?"
Song Zheng looked at Ye Ling, nodded, opened his mouth slightly and said, "Master Ye, it seems that Song Zheng is not dead yet."
"Not dead, of course you are not dead," Ye Ling said, "Mr. Song, have a good rest, and we will talk about it when the injury is better."
Song Zheng nodded, closed his eyes again, and soon fell asleep.
Ye Ling asked Xu Zheng, "Brother, how is Master Song doing?"
"It's nothing serious anymore," Xu Zheng said: "It's just that his injuries are too serious and it will take some time to recover. Thanks to Changge's elixir, he can save his life."
Ye Ling smiled when he heard this. Sometimes luck is not so important.
…………
After leaving the yard where Song Zheng was, Ye Lingzheng met Lin Yuewei who was cleaning fallen leaves. Dressed in white, spotless. Holding the broom in his hand, his face is calm, but people can't help but stare.
Lin Yuewei noticed Ye Ling's gaze and said, "Is Mr. Song okay?"
Ye Ling nodded and replied: "It's nothing serious. I will be able to resume action in a few days."
He took a few steps closer, looked at Lin Yuewei, and said, "Why is Miss Lin sweeping the floor here?"
"I want to gather these fallen leaves together and make them return to their roots." Lin Yuewei didn't say much. This is actually her habit. Before autumn, she would personally clean the fallen leaves in her yard and quietly clean them. , without any distraction.
Ye Ling wanted to ask something else, but couldn't. But Lin Yuewei suddenly asked: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince you met recently, is he okay?"
"This..." Ye Ling didn't know where to start, so he could only say: "The prince and I have only met a few times. But every time I see him, I can see the melancholy on his eyebrows, which must be from working hard for the country. to."
"That's how he is. He concentrates on those inseparable political affairs." Lin Yue sighed slightly and said, "Even if I want to see him, I always get all kinds of excuses. I may have almost forgotten what he looks like. ”
Ye Ling was silent and then smiled bitterly: "Although we are far apart and cannot meet each other, we know where each other is and are safe. This is great happiness."
Lin Yue glanced at Ye Ling slightly, nodded, and whispered: "Thank you."
Ye Ling turned around and left, found a high-rise building and sat on the roof, patted the seal on the wine jar, drank heavily, and then let out a long roar, as if he wanted to vent something.
It's a pity that no matter how much he screams, he can't express the depression in his heart.
He stared blankly into the distant sky, wondering what shadow was coming out of the water vapor.
But he didn't expect this silence to be broken soon. Baili Taizao suddenly ran to the roof and stood in front of Ye Ling, showing a bright smile: "Ye boy, will you play with me?"
Ye Ling almost choked with a mouthful of wine. After a violent cough, he asked: "What have you been doing for so long, senior? It seems that I haven't seen senior for a long time."
Baili Taizao curled his lips, jumped back and forth on the roof, and said: "This is really a strange place. It is such a big city, but there are so few people. There are only some old people in the city. I went to inspect the outside of the city. It was so weird to find no one there."
Ye Ling knew something about this place, so he was not surprised. He just said, "If it weren't for Luzhou becoming like this, my eldest brother wouldn't have brought the Queen Mother here."
Baili Taizao didn't seem to hear Ye Ling's words. He stared straight at the north of the city and suddenly said: "I feel that there must be something interesting over there. Let's go and have a look?"
Ye Ling couldn't help being stunned and looked in the direction Baili Taizao was pointing, but he didn't feel anything. What's more, they are now in Liang Yuan's territory, so they must be more careful when doing things and cannot move around at will.
But Baili Taizao curled his lips and said: "Don't think that I don't know, even if you stay here, you will be lonely. That bear has been sleeping, and you can't get in that pair of people who are inseparable. . And Girl Lin, she already has a sweetheart, and you have no chance. Is it possible that you still have thoughts about the Queen Mother? "
Ye Ling was speechless and sighed helplessly. Unexpectedly, Baili Taizao pulled Ye Ling up and said with a smile: "Stop drinking alone here, come with me to have fun, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise!"
Baili Tai's body building technique was extremely fast, pulling Ye Ling into the clouds and breaking the sound barrier in just a few steps. Ye Ling hurriedly used his Dao power to protect his body, but Baili Taizao relied on his physical body to be strong and felt no discomfort.
Ye Ling said: "Senior's physique is so strong. I wonder what kind of skills he has practiced?"
Baili Taizao laughed and said: "If you want to learn, I can leave it to you! But you have to play with me well. I will remember it when I am happy. If I am unhappy, I will not remember anything. live."
Ye Ling shook his head helplessly and could only say: "I will obey your instructions in everything."
The two people soon went hundreds of miles away and came to an abandoned village.
Ye Ling suddenly realized that someone was here, but Baili Taizao noticed it earlier and took Ye Ling to a towering tree, hiding his figure with the branches and leaves.
There was a loud noise in the village road, and then a man covered in blood was thrown out and fell heavily to the ground.
The man's hair was disheveled, and his true appearance was almost unrecognizable. The long sword in his hand had cracked lines and was almost broken.
There was a long cloth bag behind him, and he didn't know what it was.
Opposite him, a soldier in armor came out of the air. He looked at him with a sneer and said, "Why seek death? Just hand over your things obediently, maybe I can spare your life."
The man gritted his teeth and straightened up slightly. He couldn't stand up, but he still resisted and said: "I will never give the things to you unless I die!"
"Good ambition!"
From behind several soldiers, a giant crocodile several feet long walked up on the clouds. The giant crocodile looks ferocious and has a lot of blood, but it is a rare monster beast.
On the giant crocodile sat a huge general. But I saw him: "he is tall and fat, with a waist that is ten times bigger; the armor is on his body, and he is black and cold; he has a beard, and his appearance is like a ghost; his eyes are dark, and his mouth is drooling; he kills people like hemp, with mountains of bones; he holds military and political affairs in his hands , Who dares to disobey? The evil generals will be stationed on horseback, and the three armies will retreat."
As soon as this person appeared, his sight was chilling. I really didn't expect there to be such a terrifying-looking person in this world.
Beside him, Baili Taizao covered his mouth and said with a smile: "I didn't expect this big meat ball to come here."
Ye Ling raised his eyebrows and asked, "Senior recognizes him, who is this?"
Baili Taizao said: "He is a general of the imperial court, a big meatball in the Liang Dynasty and Liang Dynasty!"
When Ye Ling heard this name, he couldn't laugh at all. He had heard a little bit about Liang Chen. He was the son of Grand Master Liang Jingyi and the younger brother of Liang Yuan. He worshiped the Zhu Kingdom and led troops to fight against the Dayan Dynasty, but he didn't know it. Why does it appear here.
Liang Chen looked at the man on the ground, smiled crookedly, and said: "On the battlefield, I like to catch tough people like you the most, because breaking your tough bones into pieces is really the greatest enjoyment in life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers on both sides raised their spears and stabbed the man on the ground.
At the critical moment, Ye Ling suddenly pulled out his wooden sword and slashed several sword energy towards the soldiers. The sword energy shot through the air, knocking these soldiers away, their armor shattered, and they were almost killed.
Liang Chen raised his head and looked at Ye Ling, who was standing in the air holding a sword. He couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "A young monk in the Lingxu realm dares to interfere in the affairs of the court. Who gives you such courage?"
Ye Ling didn't answer. The reason why he suddenly came to rescue that person was because he recognized his identity. He turned out to be Ji Changfeng, a bodyguard who had been missing for a long time and was accompanying Song Zheng!
Ye Ling looked at the ferocious-looking Liang Chen with a gloomy face and shouted: "Since he is a general of the imperial court, he is so indifferent to human life that everyone will kill him!"
"Okay, let me see how you kill me!"
