Mei Yuanchen woke up from hunger.
"Are you awake? I brought you porridge and pancakes." Yun Xiaoyang heard the noise on the bed and came to help him with a smile, "You must be very hungry."
More than half an hour ago, she heard a rumbling sound coming from his belly, and hurriedly asked the old man in charge to heat up the porridge.
"Yun'er, I'm not in the way. You can walk on your own." Seeing Yun Xiaoyang coming to fight him, Mei Yuanchen said with a smile, "I'm just a little hungry."
Yun Xiaoyang ignored him, but still reached out to help him, and said coquettishly: "How can you know the importance of this person? I don't know how scary it was last night!"
After hearing the beautiful lady talking about his scandal, Mei Yuanchen closed his eyes and smiled wryly.
For the past six or seven consecutive days, he had been practicing the Immortality Gong to circulate Qi in his room all night long. Not only did his internal injuries heal without treatment, but the true Qi in his body even appeared out of nowhere, pouring into the Qi paths and acupuncture points from the body like spring water.
His confusion and bleeding from his mouth and nose last night were caused by the surge of Qi and blood in his body. If Yun Xiaoyang hadn't performed acupuncture on more than a dozen of his large acupuncture points in time to expel the residual energy, Mei Yuanchen would have gone crazy and either died or become disabled.
"Sit down and I'll scoop the porridge for you." Yun Xiaoyang said softly.
Mei Yuanchen's stomach was empty, but her heart was full. The less you have, the more you realize how precious it is.
"Even if I betray everyone in the world, I will never betray Sister Yun."
The porridge is not cooked thickly. It's not that the old man in charge is stingy, but that Yun Xiaoyang deliberately asked him to cook it thinner. Mei Yuanchen has nothing in his abdomen at this time, so it is best to eat some soup.
"Bring the bowl, I'll serve you another bowl." Yun Xiaoyang smiled and stretched out her hand.
She was also genuinely happy to see that her husband was not only unharmed but also had a strong appetite and drank six bowls of porridge in succession.
"I'm full! I'm full!" Mei Yuanchen waved her hands hurriedly, "I can't hold it in my stomach anymore."
Yun Xiaoyang knew what he said was true and put the bowls and chopsticks into the food basket with a smile.
Mei Yuanchen took advantage of her back to him, reached out and hugged her from behind, and said softly: "Yun'er, you saved me again."
He didn't know much about it at the time, but when he thought about it afterwards, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
Qingxuan once told him that the most taboo thing in practicing internal martial arts is for the Qi to get out of control and wander around the body. Once it hits key points and organs of the body, the consequences will be disastrous. His state last night was that he was wandering with anger and was on the verge of life and death.
"Good brother, I was just going to talk to you about this. Can you please let me go first?" Yun Xiaoyang gently grabbed his hand and whispered to him.
Yesterday, when it was not yet You hour, Xu Sugong discussed with Duanmuyu and stayed nearby. At this time, the group of people could not reach more than fifty miles from Ruozhou City Pass.
Duanmuyu knew that he was going to send people back first, and he had repeatedly confirmed that everything was done properly before he dared to lead him into the city gate. He only said "very good" and said nothing more.
Early in the morning, Xu Xigong came to Duanmuyu with a scroll, and when he saw it, it was a map of Ruozhou City.
"My father has prepared five places for the Lord to stay, which are here and here in the picture." Xu Xigong said while pointing to the red circle in the scroll.
After listening to him talking about half a cup of tea, Duanmu Yunai asked with a smile: "Which of these five places does Mr. Xu think is the most appropriate?"
He has carefully inspected the five terrains and found that they are all first-class hiding places, and secret passages have been built in each place several months in advance, so that he can easily escape in case of emergency. However, since there are five places listed, there are naturally some advantages and disadvantages in comparison.
Xu Xigong had already thought that he would ask this question to himself, so he replied with a smile: "Juheyuan is the first choice, followed by Tiansezhai."
"Oh?" Duanmuyu smiled.
Sure enough, knowledgeable people see the same thing, and what he thinks is no different from what Xu Xigong said.
"The Juheyuan is adjacent to Puhua Street to the south, with many people; to the north is Xiaochun Lane, with many forked roads; to the west is Guanmen Street, with a forest a few miles away; to the east is the residence of our Xu family. And there are two roads in the courtyard One of the secret paths leads to my uncle's study. No one dares to take a step without his permission. The other secret path leads to Xuankou Street, through which you can go to Tianse Zhai." Xu Su Gong is right.
"Very good. Mr. Yu and I will stay in Juheyuan, while the other team will hide in Tiansezhai." Duanmuyu nodded in approval.
Another team?
Xu Xigong was shocked, but in the end he didn't ask, and answered softly: "Yes."
"Who are all in the city?" Duanmuyu asked curiously.
"The only remaining members of the twelve sects are the Yan Gang. They have a branch in Hanzhou. I think they will rest there. It only takes a day to come to Ruozhou." Xu Xigong frowned slightly and chuckled, "Yan Although the alliance between the Gang and Lingyan Pavilion is secret, it cannot be hidden from our Xu family. What Zhang Suiguang did is a bit of a cover-up."
"Haha!" Duan Muyu couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Xu Sugong's expression was expressionless after knowing that the Yan Gang had formed an alliance with Lingyan Pavilion. Obviously, in his opinion, even if Zhang Suiguang brought allies, it would not be enough to shake the Xu family.
He is the young master of the Xu family, so he naturally knows more than other Xu family members.
"My Xu family has been the number one martial arts family for a year or two, so how can it be compared to the alliance between your factions?"
Xu Xigong paused, and then said: "There is something unexpected. The head of Zhenwu Temple, Taoist Zhan Ming, also brought people here."
When he spoke about Zhenwu Temple, he clearly felt Duanmuyu's aura surge and his whole body became fierce.
"Zhenwu Temple?" Duanmuyu clenched his fists and asked coldly, "Is there an old Taoist named Qingxuan among them?"
Very few people in the world knew about Qingxuan's murder of Duanmulan, but coincidentally, a few people in the Xu family knew about it.
"Your Majesty, we have made inquiries and found out that Qingxuan did not come with him, but it is still unclear whether he has come to Ruozhou or not. The Xu family will do their best to investigate!" Xu Xigong replied seriously.
"Okay." Duanmuyu suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "If we find him, might the Xu family kill him?"
Previously in Yin Yang Imperial City, the top ten guest officials had not been able to stop him, and Duanmu Yu had no confidence in killing him. Xu Xigong didn't want to think about it, but he replied seriously: "If Qingxuan is found in the city, my Xu family will definitely kill him!"
What he said was so solemn and sure that Duan Muyu couldn't help but believe it.
After listening to Mei Yuanchen's many details, Yun Xiaoyang's face showed confusion.
"What's the matter?" Mei Yuanchen smiled and shook her shoulders, and said softly, "My master said that Taoism's pursuit of immortality is to go against heaven. He created this immortality skill with the intention of spying on the way of heaven. Many of the things in it are contrary to common sense. I practiced it for two years before, and I didn't see anything wrong with it. I guess it's just that I've been practicing too hastily recently, and I will pay more attention in the future."
Yun Xiaoyang vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know what was wrong, so she could only whisper: "How can you expect quick results in practicing? You can't be in a hurry. From now on, after you finish practicing, I will take your pulse. , if I see you are angry, I might as well give you acupuncture in time."
