"That's a good relationship!" Xu Ling agreed immediately and curiously asked Chai Yanjun: "Doctor Chai, do you have other skills?"
Chai Yanjun chuckled and took out a pair of silver needles: "I know how to do this. Do you want to give it a try?"
Forget it!
Late at night, Xu Ling left Yongchun Hall with You Daozi Nie Peng and other fifteen people. Chai Yanjun and Hetong locked the door of the medicine hall and sent them to the dock.
Before leaving, Chai Yanjun handed Nie Peng a baggage, "You are going to Yazhou. I heard that the poisonous miasma there is very powerful. I don't know if you can use these medicines. It would be best if you can't."
He kept talking for a long time, Xu Ling kept nodding in response, but finally You Daozi couldn't stand it anymore: "Junior brother, why are you still such a nagging person?"
Chai Yanjun: "..."
Xu Ling hurriedly led everyone to board the ship.
The bags they carried contained the clothes, food and water they had prepared during the day. They were much more comprehensive than Xu Ling going out alone.
Xu Ling asked for six cabins. He and You Daozi Chunmei each had one cabin, and the others barely squeezed into the Datong shop.
The river was flowing and the scenery of Lingbao Town was getting further and further away. Chunmei could no longer hold back her tears.
She grew up on a boat in the land of fireworks in Lingbao Town, and was married to the Lin family for eight years. She has never left this familiar land, but now she has to stay far away, and she doesn't know where the future will be.
The reluctance in my heart reached its peak, turning into tears and flowing into the river.
But on the second day, when I woke up and stood on the open deck, the scenery on both sides of the river was already very different from that of Lingbao Town, and everyone's mood changed again.
The mountains follow the plains, and the river flows into the wilderness. Until the river bank can no longer be seen, there is a vast expanse of water, and only merchant ships can be seen around it.
Xu Ling told them not to run around or cause trouble, and he did not restrain them at all times. He divided the fourteen men into two teams, one team was managed by Nie Peng, and the other team was temporarily managed by the old beggar Kong Yi.
As for Chunmei, she was the only woman on the ship. She attracted a lot of criticism when she first boarded the ship. They said that women could not be carried on the ship. Xu Ling used money to fool her and could only let her come out of the room as little as possible. Even if she went out, she would not be allowed to go out. Someone needs to be with you.
Xu Ling learned boxing and kicking skills from You Daozi during the day, and You Daozi threw him a book called "Health Sutra".
The book talks about breathing and breathing methods, and ways to maintain health, including how to stand up to save energy, how to sleep most efficiently, how to turn the food you eat into body energy...
How should I put it? Xu Ling looked through it and had a very mysterious feeling.
"Taoist Priest, can you live forever after learning this book?"
"Do you think Pindao will live forever?"
"Taoist Priest, do you value Geng?"
"A quick calculation shows that Pindao lived for about sixty-five years."
"That's quite a lot." Xu Ling didn't lie. At this time, people were generally short-lived. Old people in their sixties were very rare, and those in their seventies or eighties were even rarer.
But You Daozi is sixty-five years old, looks very lively, and can break the bench with one punch, which is really terrifying.
Xu Ling was very interested, "Did you learn this because of this?"
You Daozi was honest: "No, no, Pindao visited Mingchuan Mountains when he was young. He worked under the names of many sects and learned exquisite foreign martial arts. It was not until he grew older that the root causes of his previous illness gradually emerged. This is the junior disciple. Written for poor people to cure their illnesses."
"You are not young at all. It will take you a long time to learn those skills that can bring blood. It is better to learn health-preserving Kung Fu with Pindao, so as to avoid making some detours."
There was so much ridicule in these words that Xu Ling didn't know what to say.
"But I also want to protect myself..." If he had Yu Daozi's tough skills, how could he be afraid of scalding the man?
Maybe even Wei Wuxia can take care of it together.
You Daozi said: "The young are afraid of the strong, the old are afraid of the young, practice boxing and beat the old master to death. Even if Pindao didn't teach you anything, you managed to escape last night, doesn't it prove that you are smart and courageous? If you rely on yourself Having learned two tricks of boxing and kicking, acting rashly will only affect your judgment and lead to greater disaster."
He pushed back the health-preserving scripture that Xu Ling had placed on the table and said seriously: "If you want to protect yourself, it is not a question of your martial arts level. The road you want to take is a dangerous and difficult road. How many people have taken this road throughout the ages? But how many are successful? It is destined to be a road paved with corpses and blood."
"King Xiang was able to carry the cauldron, but he was still defeated. Even if you have been practicing martial arts for a hundred years, you are still not as good as a finger of King Xiang. Why bother to persist in the wrong path?"
Xu Ling seemed to have some realization, "Taoist Priest, have you deduced something else?"
You Daozi felt as if he had eaten a chicken bone. He couldn't tell the pain. He suddenly got stuck and said angrily: "The secret of heaven must not be leaked! Can't say it, can't say it!"
Xu Ling understood when he reacted like this.
He stood up and bowed his head in thanks, "Thank you very much, Dr. Chai and Taoist Priest, for their trouble. Xu Ling understands that he will be more careful in the future to live up to your expectations."
Only at this moment did You Daozi understand what his junior brother had said to him in private before leaving.
Xu Ling is different from others.
"Brother, you can't judge Xu Ling based on the deduction results. He is different from others. He has a kind heart but is not reckless. He is meticulous and cautious, and he dares to admit his mistakes. You always say that destiny cannot be violated and secrets cannot be leaked, but you There is no need to divulge it, if what you say makes sense, Xu Ling will definitely listen and accept it!"
You Daozi sneered at this. He loved deduction since he was a child and was quite talented in this field. When he was young, he was very ambitious and felt that he could change people's fate.
But when he reached the age of hearing, he finally realized that destiny is not unbreakable. What people can't go against is their own deep-rooted understanding.
You Daozi is used to seeing all living beings, and he always feels that human destiny is like a strange circle, going around and around, and always coming back to that circle.
Is it destiny? Or is it a habit?
But he saw something different in Xu Ling. Maybe his junior brother was right about this, and maybe he could really try to take a gamble.
Xu Ling picked up the "Health Sutra" again and read it, not knowing what You Daozi was thinking.
If he knew it, he would definitely be embarrassed. This is all out of the question. He just thinks that what You Daozi said makes sense. Those who drown are those who know how to swim.
What he wants to do is not to rush into the enemy pile and defeat them alone.
But a single spark can start a prairie fire.
Xu Ling read it carefully for a while and suddenly said: "Taoist Priest, can this book be shown to others?"
You Daozi suddenly woke up, "Who do you want to show it to?"
"I think there is also a method of massaging the meridians to keep me healthy. To tell you the truth, my mother suffered from the disease when she was young. Cold wind and cold water tend to cause joint pain."
"I also have an old master at home, and it's the same."
You Daozi twirled his beard and secretly praised Xu Ling for his purity and filial piety, and he appreciated it even more.
"The Hidden Sect doesn't have so many rules, you can do whatever you want."
