In a state of confusion, Gu Shengchao's internal organs were in unbearable pain, as if many people were pricking him with sharp knives.
After a while, those people left him, as if someone had covered him with a silky blanket, which was warm and very comfortable.
There was breath wrapped around him, the true energy was flowing through his body, and the pain slowly disappeared.
He was a little tired and fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up, he felt like he was wrapped in quilt and leaning against the wall.
However, it seemed like there was a warm fleshy pad under her body, close to her chest.
Gu Shengchao opened his misty eyes.
A pair of charming eyes were looking at him, their eyes were full of charm, and their rosy face was full of spring breeze, which made people's hearts tremble.
"I must be dreaming." Gu Shengchao pinched his thigh.
It hurts, very much.
"Amei, is that you? Why are you here?" Gu Shengchao seemed to be in a dream, still doubtful.
Gently hugging him to her chest, Liu Ximei shed tears and said lovingly: "You almost lost your life, can I not come?"
Yes, Gu Shengchao recalled the scene before he fell into coma. He was hit by a double hook on the back and received another slap on the chest. The meridians must have been damaged. He tried his luck, and his breath was stable without any feeling of stagnation.
Strange, what's going on?
He suddenly realized that both of them were naked, and their bodies were still blended together. When he touched it with his hands, Liu Ximei's delicate skin was covered with dense beads of sweat.
Obviously, it was not easy for her during the time when Gu Shengchao was in coma.
Surprised, Gu Shengchao finally realized: "So, you just healed me?"
"You just know that I have worked hard for a long time." Liu Ximei was not angry. She leaned in front of his generous chest and whispered: "You were injured. Sister Wanruo was frightened. I remembered that you gave me so much help in the cave. After the healing process, I learned to give it a try, but I didn’t expect this method to be really effective. I can feel your meridians repairing bit by bit.”
Wiping away the tears on her cheeks, Gu Shengchao said in shock: "I haven't told you the method of healing, how do you know?"
Liu Ximei said shyly: "You are stupid. I learned to act as a cauldron when I was in Miaochun Pavilion. All methods are unified. You are not poisoned. I am just helping you clear your meridians. This is not difficult to do."
"Thank you for your hard work, ma'am." Gu Shengchao held up her handsome face, feeling extremely grateful.
Someone came to the door and knocked gently, asking in a low voice: "Miss Liu, is Shengchao feeling better?"
"He has woken up and is basically fine. Sister Wan, don't worry about him. I will open the door right now." Liu Ximei said, and the two of them quickly separated and put on their clothes.
Liu Ximei opened the door, and Wan Ruo couldn't wait to enter the house and went straight to Gu Shengchao.
Gu Shengchao was about to stand up, but she stopped him: "Lie down quickly, let me see if you feel better."
Helping Gu Shengchao to lie down, Wanruo sat on the edge of the bed and placed her fingers on his wrist to check for his pulse. After closing her eyes and feeling it for a moment, she said happily: "Sister Liu's double cultivation skills are amazing. She made this kid return to normal in one afternoon."
"You know everything?" Gu Shengchao's face was a little hot. Wan Ruo didn't see it with his own eyes, but he also knew what they did.
Liu Ximei admitted truthfully: "I told my sister that this can heal her wounds."
"Oops, where are the people from King Wu Palace?" Gu Shengchao was so happy to see Liu Ximei that he almost forgot the most important thing.
"Don't move, just lie down and rest in peace." Wan Ruo held him down, glanced at Liu Ximei and praised, "I heard Sheng Chao mention Sister Liu many times, and I always thought she was a frail and beautiful woman. I just saw her today. I know I am superficial, but Sister Liu, a stunning woman who is shy of her beauty, actually used a pair of fists to smash the North Heavenly King of Wuwang Palace to death, which made me amazed."
"Sister, it's a joke. I wasn't in a hurry, I was too reckless." Liu Ximei lowered her head shyly.
Wan Ruo stood up: "You guys chat, I'll be right back." She hurried out.
"What, you killed that Northern King. I don't believe that our Iron Arm Magic is from the same origin." Ancient Sage Chao was surprised.
Standing on the spot, Liu Ximei did not say anything. With some luck, a layer of metal-like material appeared on her warm and jade-like skin. It was the color of iron at first, then immediately changed to the color of copper, and then turned into silver white, and her whole body seemed to be covered with a veil. Put on a set of silver armor, shining brightly.
"You touch it and see." Liu Ximei walked to the bed.
Reaching out to touch it, the layer of silver armor on her skin was extremely weird. It felt hard and unbreakable, but it did not affect her ability to make any movements. Her body could bend at will, just like normal.
"I left for a while and you guys started making love to each other. There is plenty of time in the evening." Wan Ruo came in with a night of hot noodles and joked.
"We are discussing kung fu." Gu Shengchao defended with his lips pouted like a child.
Wan Ruo took a glance and was surprised: "Sister Liu's ability is really weird. I have never seen such skill in many years of walking around the world. It's admirable."
"With such ability, no wonder Beitian Wang can't beat you." Gu Shengchao also admired.
Liu Ximei smiled and said, "This skill was given to me by you."
"Impossible, we just learned the Iron Arm Magic Skill." Gu Shengchao thought of something, "Did you go to that cave again and find something?"
"No." Liu Ximei calmed down, and the layer of silver armor on her skin disappeared. She took out the book "Iron Arm Magic" from her lapel, raised her lips and said, "All the secrets are in this book."
"You're kidding me again." Gu Shengchao carefully read every page of the book at that time, and he was sure that there would be no new content.
Liu Ximei slowly opened the book. The thick cover and back cover of the parchment book were folded several times, with illustrations and text descriptions.
"Thanks to my expertise in women's red, I discovered anomalies when I was reading through it alone. I used a needle and thread to open it up and there was indeed something hidden inside. These are the real secrets of the Iron Arm Magic." Liu Ximei explained.
Gu Shengchao stretched out his hand: "Let me take a look."
"Snapped!"
Wan Ruo raised his palm and knocked down Gu Shengchao's outstretched hand: "Eat first, then do whatever you like after eating."
"Unreasonable." Gu Shengchao muttered softly as he picked up his bowl and ate aggrievedly.
Wan Ruo and Liu Ximei looked at Gu Shengchao's pitiful appearance and smiled at each other.
"Mom." A little girl jumped into the house.
Gu Shengchao raised his head, put down the bowl and rushed out to protect Liu Ximei, saying coldly: "Why are you here?"
"I'm looking for my mother." The little girl said unconvinced.
Gu Shengchao recognized this person. She was the daughter of the former governor of Changqing County. She was the domineering girl who falsely accused the child of stealing things on the boat leaving Qixing Cliff. Later, she kidnapped Liu Ximei and was poisoned by herself, which scared her to death. Yuchiyao dared not sleep alone at night.
"Get out, your mother is not here." Gu Shengchao pointed outside and said sternly.
Yuchi Yao pouted, as if he was about to cry.
Liu Ximei quickly pulled her over and protected her in her arms, scolding Gu Shengchao: "Don't speak softly, or you might scare the child. I am her mother. You have the ability to get angry at me."
"you……"
Seeing that Liu Ximei didn't seem to be telling lies and was so protective of her, Gu Shengchao had no choice but to sit back on the bed and lower his head to eat.
"Okay, your brother Shengchao doesn't know what's going on with us. He has a dry mouth after eating. Can you go find a glass of water?" Liu Ximei coaxed.
After glaring at Gu Shengchao angrily, Yuchi Yao said stubbornly: "I won't go."
Liu Ximei stroked her head lovingly, "Mom is thirsty. You can always give her some water."
"That's okay." Yuchi Yao replied simply and ran out.
Gu Shengchao looked confused: "How, how did you consider this little girl to be your mother? She has kidnapped you before and almost hurt you when she kidnapped you from the inn."
"I'm happy." Liu Ximei was a little dissatisfied and disliked Gu Shengchao's ruthlessness towards Yuchi Yao.
Smiling, Wan Ruo comforted her: "Okay, don't be angry. Sister Liu can just explain what happened clearly."
Liu Ximei sat aside angrily and said, "I listen to my sister, I say."
"The death of Wen Zhe, the eunuch of the previous dynasty, caused a shock in the officialdom. The then Sheriff of Changqing County was eventually dismissed from office because he was attached to the Ministry of Punishment. He spent a lot of money to become an official, and in an instant he had nothing and became a pauper. He was very angry and depressed. In the end, my wife, who was originally frail and sick, died with him."
Gu Shengchao nodded and said: "We already knew this when we passed by Changqing County. This girl later sold herself to bury her father and was bought by a young man. Why did she get to know you again?"
Sighing softly, Liu Ximei said: "That young master is me disguised as a man. I passed by there when I came out of the capital. Seeing how pitiful she was, I spent money to send her parents' coffin back to her hometown for burial. I originally planned to put her in order and leave. Unexpectedly, all the relatives began to despise her when they saw her misfortune, and no one was willing to help her. In desperation, she followed me."
"We are all homeless. Anyway, I have a lot of money. I first bought a house to live in the capital. Then I missed my hometown, so I took Yao'er back to Lizhou. How could I find the past in the huge crowd? I had no choice but to return to the capital, and I happened to meet you when passing by." Liu Ximei said calmly.
"Then you can't just become a mother!" Gu Shengchao felt puzzled.
Liu Ximei was a little sad: "Yes, I initially treated her as a sister. After she lost her parents, she was afraid that she would have to recognize me as her mother, so she had to accommodate her. When I was in Miaochun Pavilion, the madam forced her to drink without knowing it. I took many medicines to prevent pregnancy, and had several abortions. My body had been damaged a long time ago, and I probably would not be able to have children in this life. Then I thought about it, wasn’t it a gift from God to have such a big girl as my daughter, and I felt at ease later. .”
Gu Shengchao and Wan Ruo also sighed after hearing this. Wan Ruo said thoughtfully: "That's fine. Your daughter is our daughter. Don't worry, I will take good care of her."
"I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Liu Ximei was a little embarrassed.
Wan Ruo asked, "What's wrong?"
Liu Ximei looked at Wan Ruo and said: "I didn't know my sister before. I just told Yao'er the story of Sheng Chao and Ding Ying. She said that she would only recognize me as my mother in this life, and everyone else would be my sister and brother. There would be no difference." title."
Gu Shengchao slapped his thigh and said, "That's right. I'm not happy with this girl calling me daddy. It's just right to call her brother."
Wan Ruo laughed at him: "Don't be so sentimental. I can see that I don't even want to recognize you as my father."
A few people were joking, but Gu Shengchao suddenly remembered something, stood up and said: "Oops, where did Gao Yuanwai and Cai Ji go? Did any of the ten people under me have any accidents or injuries?"
