Gu Shengchao was hit in the back by the mace and fell down, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Shui Linglong shed tears in self-blame, hugged him into her arms and said fearfully: "I'm sorry, it's my fault, you got hurt, are you okay?"
Gu Shengchao knew in his heart that his true energy was about to be condensed into armor, and the mace hit him before it was formed. He first shattered the true energy and then hit his back. The internal organs and meridians were not substantially damaged and could return to normal with a little conditioning.
He looked at the pear blossoms covered with rain and felt a little regretful. He smiled and said, "I'm fine, so you can rest assured."
"Really?" Shui Linglong wiped away the tears on her cheeks and stared at him suspiciously.
"I'm really fine. I just need time to calm down and recuperate." Gu Shengchao straightened up and paid attention to the chaotic situation. "As long as the rebels are calmed down, I can find a place to heal my wounds in peace."
"You wait." Shui Linglong ordered two Yunqi Palace disciples to guard Gu Shengchao's side. She picked up her sword and went back to the battlefield.
This time, she seemed to be possessed by death and turned into a killing machine.
There was only one thought in her mind: kill all these people and find a place to help Gu Shengchao heal.
Shui Linglong's cold face was expressionless, she just mechanically harvested the lives of rebel officers and soldiers, and no one was spared wherever she went.
Even Wanyan Xi, who was furious, couldn't help but be surprised. The amiable sister Shui suddenly changed into a different person, with a fierce look that made people afraid to look directly at her.
King Baocheng had been captured, and the remaining rebels dispersed. Those who could not escape dropped their weapons and surrendered.
When several people saw Shui Linglong coming to kill him, they threw away their swords and guns and knelt down to beg for mercy: "I won't fight. We were also forced. I surrender."
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff……"
Shui Linglong killed them all without giving them any chance to explain.
Gu Shengchao wanted to stop him, but after standing up and walking for a few steps, his back hurt so much that he couldn't hold on, so he had to sit down again with a grin on his face.
BMW Zhui Feng bypassed the crowd and came to Gu Shengchao, nudging his body with his big head to show affection.
"Help me." Gu Shengchao grabbed the long mane behind Zhui Feng's neck and stood up, trying to get on the horse, but he couldn't.
Zhui Feng was very knowledgeable about human nature. When he saw that his master was having difficulty getting on the horse, he took the initiative to lie down with his limbs curled up. He waited for the Ancient Sage Chao to sit firmly on the saddle, then he slowly stood up and snorted to wait for instructions.
The ancient sage patted Zhui Feng lovingly and drove slowly towards Shui Linglong.
More than twenty rebels had abandoned their armor and prepared to surrender. Seeing Shui Linglong approaching, they knew that surrendering to her would be a dead end, so they turned and ran towards the officers and soldiers of the King of Zhennan.
They crawled and begged: "We won't fight, we surrender, as long as we don't fall into her hands. Please tie us up and take us away from here."
Shui Linglong was approaching step by step, and the officers and soldiers of King Zhennan were also in trouble.
No one can beat her, and provoke the female devil for a few strangers' rebels, unless she gets kicked in the head by a donkey. I don't care, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to explain to me because of the blame from my superiors.
The sound of horse hooves came, and Gu Shengchao lay on Zhui Feng's back and stopped in front of Shui Linglong.
"Get out of the way!" Shui Linglong stared at him sadly and finally stopped.
The ancient sage said weakly: "Stop killing people, they are all innocent."
After saying that, he fell off his horse and curled up motionless on the river bank.
"Shengchao!"
Shui Linglong put away her sword and stepped forward to help him up, and asked anxiously: "Wake up, don't scare me."
"I can't die, I just want to find a place to be quiet." Gu Shengchao really needed timely treatment.
"I'll help you."
Shui Linglong picked up Gu Shengchao and ran quickly towards the mountainside.
There was a temporary tent they had set up during the ambush, which was sufficient for their use.
After finding a random tent and entering it, Shui Linglong let Gu Shengchao sit down and asked with concern: "What do you need me to do?"
Gu Shengchao couldn't help but laugh at this moment. The dignified man was carried into the camp by a woman. Others didn't believe him when he told him.
"I can heal my wounds by myself, just don't be disturbed by others, lest I go crazy."
"I understand, don't worry, I will protect you outside." Shui Linglong did her job neatly and immediately left the tent to wait outside.
At this point, Gu Shengchao had no choice but to accept the situation and calm down to use his luck to heal his wounds.
The true energy moves forward slowly in the meridians, everything is normal and there is no blockage or stagnation.
Gu Shengchao was relieved now. It just took time to repair the damaged parts of the body. There was no other way but to wait patiently.
Time passed little by little, and when he felt that his whole body was back to normal, he realized that it was already night and the tent was completely dark.
The senses were released, and through the corner of the tent curtain blown by the breeze, there were at least a dozen scents outside the tent.
"Um."
Gu Shengchao deliberately coughed, making so many people worry about him, he felt really bad about it.
"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?" Shui Linglong lifted the curtain and asked.
Gu Shengchao walked out and saluted: "Thank you Elder Shui for your help, and thank you all for your enthusiastic help."
In the hazy night, he noticed that the entire camp had been cleaned up, leaving only his tent. Except for more than ten of them, there was no one there.
Wan Yanxi sat alone on the outermost edge, looking from the back as if she was admiring the night view in the distance. Only Gu Shengchao understood that as a blind person, her perception was far richer and clearer than that of a normal person.
"Where are the others?" Ancient Sage Chao was surprised.
Shui Linglong saw that the ancient sage Chao was fine, and her hanging heart finally fell to the ground. She smiled and said: "They all went to camp outside the town ahead. The king of Zhennan set out early tomorrow, saying that he would personally escort King Baocheng to meet the sage to forgive his sins. "
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not an apology, but a request for credit and reward.
"What are Elder Shui's plans?" Gu Shengchao asked.
Shui Linglong looked at the big river flowing at the foot of the mountain. The water was sparkling at night, flickering in and out like fish swimming in it.
"Of course we're going back to the capital, Yunshang City. Why don't you come with us?" Shui Linglong seemed to be sending an invitation.
Ancient Sage Chao saluted: "I would like to go with Elder Shui."
While they were talking, the Yunqigong disciples quickly dismantled the tents, and everyone rode back to the Zhennan King's army station.
Shui Linglonggui is the elder of Yunqi Palace. He has made great contributions in wiping out the rebels and can enter and exit the camp freely.
Someone had already prepared a tent for them, and they were about to arrange who would live with whom, when two people came running from a distance.
"Elder Shui!"
"Brother Gu!"
Everyone looked intently and saw that it was Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju.
"Why are you here?" Shui Linglong was stunned.
Yang Qianhui took Shui Linglong's hand and jumped excitedly: "My father said, thanks to you this time, if I hadn't been studying in Yunqigong, I wouldn't have had the great help of our Yunqigong. So, He agreed that I would continue to study with Elder Shui in the future and would never force me to get married again."
Fang Ju also said quickly: "Our prince also praised Brother Gu and asked us to make many friends in the world of martial arts in Yunshang City. He learned that I ran a noodle shop and said that if Miss and I don't want to practice kung fu, we can Open a big restaurant and make friends with customers all over the world."
Shui Linglong took the two of them and saw that candles had been lit in the tent next to them, so she said, "Let's stay here tonight and chat all night long."
"Okay!" Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju said in unison.
Wan Yanxi reluctantly said: "Then I will sleep with you too!"
However, Shui Linglong pushed her to Gu Shengchao's side, saying unintentionally: "I, as an adult, will allow you to accompany your beloved brother in an upright manner from now on."
Wan Yanxi said embarrassedly: "Sister Shui, please stop teasing me. What's the matter?"
After speaking, she lowered her head and her face turned red. Even if you don't admit it, others can see that it is acquiescence.
Shui Linglong joked: "That day you two went to explore the cave, and it took a day and a night. I went there later, and it didn't take that long at all. I can guess what you two secretly did. From then on, at night you He often talks in his sleep, "Brother Gu, give me a hug," which makes me feel numb. Also that night I asked Brother Shengchao how many wives he had, and he first said three. Then he glanced at you secretly and immediately changed his words to There are four of them, so no need to guess, you must be included in them. Do you need me to say more after all this?"
"Sister Shui, stop talking." Wanyanxi was so ashamed that she almost buried herself in the ground.
Only then did Gu Shengchao realize that Shui Linglong had already guessed his relationship with Wan Yanxi, but why did he mention it tonight in front of so many friends?
He understood immediately and bowed deeply to Shui Linglong: "Thank you, Elder Shui, for your help."
After all, being sneaky is not the answer. Rather than that, it's better to find a suitable opportunity to make it clear.
Tonight is the most appropriate time.
Shui Linglong seemed to be exposing their shortcomings, but actually she was helping them to avoid more embarrassment in the future.
Now that things are clear, accommodation for the night can be easily arranged.
Shui Linglong shared a room with Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju, Gu Shengchao and Wan Yanxi shared a room, Ma Guanshan and the male disciples of Yunqi Palace shared a room, and the remaining female disciples shared a room.
The journey went smoothly, and soon we arrived at Yunshang City, the capital city.
King Zhennan wanted to escort King Baocheng to meet the Holy Sage. The ancient sage reversed the meridian to unblock the closed acupuncture points of King Baocheng, and replaced the shackles on his hands and feet with thick iron chains. Only then did he feel relieved.
With the support of King Zhennan, Yang Qianhui could have bought a spacious house to live in, but after thinking about it, she decided to live in the original yard.
Although Wan Yanxi is their landlord, she also speaks her mind: "I will not charge rent from anyone. We are all like brothers and sisters. It is fate that we can live here. I can't ask for more."
Ma Guanshan naturally followed Gu Shengchao, and Fang Ju wanted to stay, so of course he was even more reluctant to leave.
The five of them returned to the yard, and happened to meet Jiang Wan coming back to get something. Seeing that everyone was reunited, they ran to tell Ran Dengjia to temporarily close the noodle shop, and the east wing opened up and cooked a sumptuous meal for everyone.
During the dinner, Yang Qianhui said that she wanted to live in the original back room, and everyone had no objection.
Gu Shengchao persuaded Ran Dengjia and the others to go back to the compound and live together. Jiang Wan waved her hand and said, "It's good for me and Brother Ran to live in the front yard. It just so happens that Sister Fang Ju comes back. I also want to ask for more cooking skills!"
Wan Yanxi is the landlord, and the main house is empty. She and Gu Shengchao live there legitimately.
Ma Guanshan chose the room and settled on the west wing, where he wanted to sleep.
All arrangements were made, and everyone drank happily until midnight before everyone went back to their houses to rest drunk.
