"Wake up, Mr. Yi is awake! Cui Nuxia's medical skills are really superb!" Magistrate Ding and Xu Hong stayed by Yi Xiaodao's bed all night, and finally Yi Xiaodao woke up early the next morning. .
"What's going on?" Yi Xiaodao felt a little strange when he saw the two of them guarding his bed.
Xu Hong quickly stepped forward and said: "Master Yi, didn't we agree to fake death? How come you almost died? You scared me to death!"
Not to be outdone, Magistrate Ding stepped forward and said, "Master Yi has his own destiny. He happened to meet Cui Nvxia when he came to Yicheng, and he saved a life!"
Yi Xiaodao saw the two of them quarreling with each other and staying by his bedside. He understood in his heart: his plan was considered successful. Lingyue Pavilion should have been driven away, otherwise Magistrate Ding and Xu Hongduan would not be able to Stand together and talk to yourself. The two of them were afraid that the other party would take advantage of them and show their face in front of them, and they would lose the right to speak in the court, so they never left their side.
Yi Xiaodao briefly analyzed some of the situation and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the two of you for getting back together. What a joy to congratulate you. Who is the Cui Nvxia you two just mentioned?"
Before the two of them had time to answer, Cui Ying, the senior sister of Xiushanfang, walked in from outside the door and saluted Yi Xiaodao: "A commoner girl is a disciple of Xiushanfang, Cui Ying, and has met Master Yi. "
"Yes, yes, thank you to Cui Nvxia!" Magistrate Ding had just been overtaken by Xu Hong. At this time, he quickly said, "Fortunately, Cui Nvxia arrived in time, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
Yi Xiaodao got out of bed, raised his hands and said in return: "Thank you Cui Nuxia for saving my life."
Cui Ying pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "It's not a big deal. Master Yi and Ji Ren have their own destiny."
Yi Xiaodao couldn't care less about being polite. At this time, both Sui Gong and the mineral deposits had been settled, and it was time to return to Beijing. He turned around and said, "It's a happy event that the two have turned their feud into friendship. I will rush back to the capital immediately and report to Your Majesty that the mine belongs to you. Please make your decision. What do you think?"
"That's natural, that's natural!" Magistrate Ding and Xu Hong quickly agreed.
"Master Yi's injuries can't be touched lightly yet, and he still needs a lot of rest." Cui Ying reminded from the side.
Yi Xiaodao exercised for a while and felt his whole body. He already had demonic energy filling his body. After being calcined by the fire energy, his body was much stronger than ordinary people, and his self-healing ability was also good. The hand that was broken by Kong Bao could only be healed within a few days from Wucheng to the capital. What's more, today's mere sword injury, coupled with Xiu Shanfang's pharmacological treatment, was almost healed in just one night.
"It's okay, I feel almost better. Magistrate Ding, where is my girl? I have to return to Beijing as soon as possible." After saying that, Yi Xiaodao did not shy away and put on his coat in front of everyone.
"This..." County Magistrate Ding frowned in embarrassment when he heard Yi Xiaodao ask Xiang Lian'er.
"What's wrong with my sister?" Yi Xiaodao noticed something unusual, stopped dressing, turned around and asked.
Magistrate Ding said with a grimace: "She disappeared yesterday... The two girls from the Tang family said she went back to Beijing alone..."
Yi Xiaodao's heart skipped a beat and he said, "No way! When I came to Jiacheng, I told my sister not to run around and wait for me to come back. She won't leave easily." Yi Xiaodao shook his head. I don’t believe Shanlian’er returned to Beijing alone.
Magistrate Ding looked at everyone helplessly and said, "That's indeed what he said. I also searched for a whole day and couldn't find it..."
Yi Xiaodao felt so depressed that he couldn't even look at the person, but he was very energetic in grabbing the mountain. However, the situation between the two parties had just eased at this time, and Yi Xiaodao only dared to curse in his heart, but did not dare to say it out loud.
Yi Xiaodao tried hard to calm down. He speculated on Xiang Lian'er's whereabouts and paced back and forth in the room.
Cui Ying asked aloud: "Is she a girl who is capable and dressed in green clothes?"
Yi Xiaodao hurriedly walked up to Cui Ying, frightened Cui Ying and took two steps back. Only then did Yi Xiaodao realize the rudeness, took a step back and asked, "Has Cui Nvxia seen my sister?"
"I've seen it," Cui Ying nodded. "On my way here, as soon as I entered the boundaries of Yicheng, I saw that girl fighting with Gao Cui, the senior sister of Lingyue Pavilion, and then... she was taken away by them."
Yi Xiaodao's eyelids twitched slightly and asked: "Why did they fight?"
Cui Ying replied: "It was to avenge Master Yi, so we started fighting. Although the little girl's fists and kicks are pretty good, she still lost to Senior Sister Gao from Lingyue Pavilion..."
Yi Xiaodao shook his head and fell down on the bench: "Of course she was defeated. How could I not have known about those two or three blows from her? I knew from the first fight yesterday that the senior sister was not easy, otherwise I wouldn't have suffered this. One strike. She could tell at a glance whether it was true or false, so I endured the pain and took the strike. It was good for her..."
"Then...Master Yi, what should we do now?" Magistrate Ding stepped forward and asked.
Xu Hong stood up and patted his chest: "This is a simple matter! Xu Hong just needs to pay to redeem her!"
Yi Xiaodao held his forehead with his hand. Although the atmosphere was that Xiang Lian'er had taken it upon himself to run off and cause trouble by herself, at this moment he couldn't feel angry with Xiang Lian'er at all. He thought of the conversation with Xiang Lian'er in Su City. .
"Xiao Dao, isn't it good if we leave Fang Long alone like this?"
"There is nothing we can do about it. Looking for someone in Su City is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Since the Nanhuai Palace agrees to help, it will definitely be much faster than us. Let's go to Yicheng first and say Maybe he will come back, so let’s leave Fang Long’s matter to them first.”
"If one day...I..."
"You are my sister, I will not let that day happen."
…
Yi Xiaodao stood up with a "no" sound: "I'm sorry, everyone. I'm going to Hangzhou to rescue my little sister."
Everyone was stunned and had not yet reacted. Yi Xiaodao did not expect any reaction from them, so he turned around and left.
County Magistrate Ding took two quick steps, came to the back of Yi Xiaodao and said, "Master Yi, Ding is willing to help! The person was lost on my side. Due to emotion and reason, lower officials also have responsibilities."
Yi Xiaodao glanced at Magistrate Ding. This burly civil servant was quite energetic: "Master Ding, the war between the two sides has just stopped. Now is the time to recuperate. If we start running around again..."
"Although Mr. Yi has the emperor's mandate, he has gone through life and death for our Yicheng. The soldiers and people of Yicheng will repay their kindness and there will never be any complaints!" Magistrate Ding said with a serious face.
When Xu Hong saw this scene, he cursed in his heart: "The old fox stole my hand again." Not to be outdone, he also stood up and said: "Xu is also willing to do his best!"
Yi Xiaodao raised his hands to the two of them and said, "Thank you both for your kindness, but..."
"That's it! As long as Mr. Yi has an order, Yicheng will never refuse!" With that said, Magistrate Ding handed over to Yi Xiaodao and left, not knowing what arrangements he made.
"Master Yi, please take your leave first and we can set off in the afternoon!" Xu Hong was about to leave as well. Yi Xiaodao quickly grabbed Xu Hong and said softly, "Only Yi Xiaodao and Cui Ying were left in the room."
"Nvxia Cui, may I ask what Ling Yue Pavilion's... strength is?" Yi Xiaodao asked the question that had been hidden in his heart all morning.
Cui Ying laughed: "Although Xiushanfang and Lingyue Pavilion are both known as Nanhuai Shuangxiu, except for the fact that they are all female disciples, each has its own unique skills. Xiushanfang's unique skill is medical skills, and Lingyue Pavilion's words... "
"But there's no harm in talking!"
"It's power... As far as I know, except for the master Liu Zhiyun and master Liu, the martial arts of Lingyue Pavilion's disciples are not very strong in the martial arts world. Even their senior sister Gao Cui met you, Master Yi. ...Not necessarily an opponent..." Cui Ying said, giving Yi Xiaodao a meaningful look. It was obvious that he discovered something unusual about Yi Xiaodao when he was treating the sword wound.
"Down here..."
Yi Xiaodao was about to explain, but was interrupted by Cui Ying, "Don't worry, Mr. Yi, the little girl won't talk nonsense. Back to the subject, the disciples of Lingyue Pavilion can learn martial arts, unlike the Xiushanfang girls who only learn medical skills. So There are many young women who come here to worship me. In the land of Nanhuai, there are probably thousands of disciples of Lingyue Pavilion..."
"Thousands of people..." Yi Xiaodao swallowed. "Although Gao Cui's martial arts is indeed good, he can only be regarded as an average person. I thought that Ling Yue Pavilion's strength is just this... If there are thousands of people..." Yi The knife feels awkward.
The two of them had no more words to say. Cui Ying kept peeking at Yi Xiaodao, not knowing what she was planning in her heart.
Not long after, Magistrate Ding and Xu Hong came back and took Yi Xiaodao and Cui Ying out of the camp without any explanation.
Outside the camp, the rest of the soldiers' tents have been dismantled and packed up. The number of people in the Jiacheng camp has been reduced a lot. Many ruffians have been dismissed by Xu Hong. Now the remaining people are all capable people. It can be seen at a glance. It is known that it has been in battle for a long time and has about a thousand people.
Xu Hong said: "These are capable people brought by Xu from Jiacheng. The number is a bit small, but they are all trustworthy if they dare to fight and fight hard."
Yi Xiaodao looked at everyone, but before he could recover, County Magistrate Ding led the horse to Yi Xiaodao's side: "Master Yi, please get on your horse, Yicheng is ready!" With that, two people came over. The soldiers from Yicheng helped Yi Xiaodao onto his horse. Under the leadership of Xu Hong, the people from Jiacheng followed Yi Xiaodao and Magistrate Ding to Yicheng. Cui Ying and the young woman were also invited by Xu Hong, and the group marched toward Yicheng in a mighty manner.
After moving for more than ten miles, everyone saw the towering walls of Yicheng and the large number of soldiers lined up outside Yicheng.
As they got closer, everyone came to the outside of Yicheng. Magistrate Ding said: "Here are the five thousand soldiers of Yicheng, at the disposal of Master Yi!"
Yi Xiaodao was so surprised. He never imagined that half a month ago, he was living a life of one meal and one meal, but now there were five thousand troops at his disposal...
"Fellow fellow citizens of Yicheng! This is Mr. Yi, you know that, right?" County Magistrate Ding stepped forward and shouted to everyone. "Master Yi has mediated the dispute between Yicheng and Jiacheng. He went to Yicheng with great pains and almost died yesterday. But Master Yi's sister was lost in our camp in Yicheng. According to the news, Lingyue Pavilion took her away Yes. We in Yicheng repay our kindness and help Mr. Yi rescue his sister. Is there anyone who doesn’t want to?"
"We are willing to go together!" the five thousand soldiers shouted.
Magistrate Ding had just arranged for people to come back and asked Master Guo to give a speech to everyone early in the morning. Only then did everyone understand that in fact, Jiacheng had not wanted to fight for a long time. All he wanted was to get a share of the mine. This mine was originally owned by Jiacheng. If Cheng discovered it first, it wouldn't matter if he got a share of the pie. In fact, Jiacheng lost face after losing, so he went to the doctor because of a sudden illness and invited Lingyue Pavilion. Behind Lingyue Pavilion was the Nanhuai family, so Jiacheng was trapped in it and was in a dilemma.
Master Guo stopped talking at this point, just right. The hatred of everyone in Yicheng towards Lingyue Pavilion was already much higher than that in Jiacheng. Jiacheng was already no match for Yicheng, and everyone did not regard Jiacheng as their mortal enemy for a while. Every time when the victory was about to be won, Ling Yue Pavilion intervened, hurting the people of Yicheng and sucking the blood of Jiacheng. This behavior was naturally despised by both parties.
Yi Xiaodao saw that the crowd was angry and could not attack them, but he had to tell him bluntly: "Lingyue Pavilion is a martial arts sect with many disciples..."
"Hit!" Before Yi Xiaodao could finish speaking, a slightly immature voice in the array shouted.
A shout was like a prairie fire. In an instant, both sides of Yicheng Jiacheng shouted in unison: "Fight!"
…
Zhao Yizhi, who was slightly sleepy in the capital, suddenly opened his eyes, walked outside the palace and looked in the direction of Nanhuai, silent for a long time.
