Chapter 228 It’s a Deed

On the turbulent lake, the atmosphere was still lively. Whether it was top experts or low-level warriors, they were all chatting away:

"Awesome, the boat ticket is really worth it..."

"After more than forty years, this sword leader has finally been replaced... Why are you looking so sad?"

"Why are you so happy? In the past, old Xuanyuan was the leader of swordsmen. Maybe we can seize the opportunity to take over when old Xuanyuan is old. What kind of hero is he today? He is around 20 years old and has not yet reached his peak. The swordsman The law is so outrageous, and it will definitely become more powerful in the future. We have no chance at all in this life..."

"Uh... It seems so. How about we practice gun training instead? Guns are more powerful than knives..."

"It has only been a few years since Duan Shengji took over as the spearhead, and now he is only in his thirties. How can you risk your life? The oldest among the eight spearheads seems to be Lu Jieyun..."

…

The noisy words echoed among Qianfan.

On a large ferry between the shipyards, the windows on the second floor of the ship building were open and bead curtains were hung on the windows.

Behind the bead curtain, a tall figure in a brocade robe stood quietly in front of the window, his eyes under the bamboo hat watching the new swordsman and the woman in white on the Junshan stage as they stepped onto the boat.

In the room, a girl dressed as a maid was beating her chest and not knowing what she was happy about, just like the charlatan outside.

After being silly and happy for a long time, I noticed that the figure in front of the window was silent. The maid came to the door again and asked curiously:

"Leader, this Ye Da Xia is so handsome. He has great martial arts skills and a strong chivalrous spirit. He is also young. He looks like a good candidate for rebellion. Do we have to find a way to win him over..."

Leader Pingtian held his hands with one hand and thought for a moment:

"According to the rumors in Wuzhou, Xuanyuan Hongzhi was killed by the Hei Yamen, and Zhou Huaili was also killed by the Hei Yamen's sword master. The person who handled the matter must be Ye Jingtang. He has been reused by the imperial court and is not in the same boat as us."

"Oh... Ye Daxia seems to have a good relationship with Qiu Daxia. How about we let Qiu Daxia make the connection, take Ye Daxia back to Nanxiao Mountain, and persuade him to abandon the secret and surrender to Dayan..."

"The woman in white next to her is Master Xuanji. It's so easy to kidnap someone."

Leader Pingtian came here because he heard the news that Qiu Tianhe came to give him a free gift. He came from Chongzhou, which borders Zezhou, to take a look, in order to prevent half of Yunli's division commander from being chopped down by Mr. Xuanyuan.

Seeing Ye Jingtang coming out of nowhere, Leader Pingtian seemed to see his former self, and he really had the intention of using him for his own purposes.

But Xuanji, the real person, was still here and seemed to be protecting his little lover. It was indeed a bit troublesome to snatch the man in front of him. After thinking about it for a while, the leader of Pingtian looked back from the boat going away, looked at Junshan Terrace, and said doubtfully:

"Ning'er has been in the capital for half a year, claiming that she has planted a secret stake in the black office. The court has such a powerful master, but no news has been sent back..."

The little maid thought for a while and said: "For such a young and promising master, the court will definitely keep it a secret. It's normal that Madam didn't notice."

"I took Yunli to the capital on my own initiative. I couldn't even figure out who the experts in the imperial court were. I really... sent a letter to the capital so that she wouldn't have the chance to sneak into the palace and come back immediately..."

"Good leader."

The little maid nodded quickly...

——

Yunmengze has a radius of nearly a thousand miles. Once you get away from the islands and lake shores, it feels like you are sailing into an endless ocean. The visibility is limited to a few feet due to heavy rain, and the rainwater hits the boat awning with a crackling sound.

"Chi chi chi..."

Niaoniao stood outside the cabin, keeping watch and taking shelter from the rain. He was still mumbling and complaining about how many chivalrous girls wanted to feed them just now, but the Night Terror Hall wouldn't let them pass.

The rain was so heavy that the cabin doors and windows were closed.

There is not much space in the cabin, because it has been idle in Huangquan Town all year round. There is no furniture in it, only a mat spread on the ground.

Night Terror Hall was lying on the mat wearing tattered trousers, his face was red, his breathing was unsteady, and he had closed his eyes.

After all, he was facing off against Dao Kui head-on, and Xuanyuan Chao was not a parallel import. His experience and reaction were so strong that he could deduce all the opponent's intentions in advance. To win, he could only squeeze his body to the point of self-mutilation in exchange for Xuanyuan Chao seeing whether he could handle it or not. Live the ultimate speed.

The mind was highly concentrated and the body was too exhausted. Night terrors entered the cabin and fell asleep without even realizing it.

Master Xuanji took off her curtain hat and sat softly beside her. She held the Jade Dragon Cream and massaged Ye Jingtang's chest with her hands. Her eyes were still quite stunning as she kept looking at Ye Jingtang's perfect chest and abdominal muscles.

Normal Fengchi reverses the blood flow, and after using it, the Du Vein will be damaged, and a red mark will appear on the ridge line.

The Night Terror Hall uses the principle of counter-blood in the wind pool to change the fate of the Eight-Step Crazy Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Order. You can see how complex and exquisite the overall structure is with the naked eye.

At this time, Ye Jingtang took off his shirt, and his chest, waist, abdomen, and left and right arms were all covered with light red marks like thunder streaks. Although it was terrible to look at, it did not damage the roots. This alone can reflect the terrifying nature of talent. .

Because the luck method is not something that can be changed casually. As long as you go the wrong way, your energy will go wrong, and your body may be injured or explode. And the reverse flow of energy and blood is a method of suicide. If you don't control it well, you will be seriously injured. You can play like this with your whole body, no matter how experienced you are. Any martial artist might get into trouble. If he wanted to accomplish this feat accurately, he could only rely on an indescribable 'feeling'. This cannot be achieved through practice and talent.

After Master Xuanji carefully admired it for a moment, he felt that if Ye Jingtang could deduce the fate of the Minglong Picture by itself, he might be able to navigate this path of no return.

However, this road is too risky, and even if it is successful, there is no way to teach it through words and deeds. Should something happen to the empress, it is safer to find a ready-made picture of the singing dragon.

Master Xuanji's distracting thoughts flashed away, and she continued to apply Jade Dragon Cream to treat internal injuries on the wounds on Ye Jingtang's body. After touching and touching, her hand touched under her belly button and stopped.

Legs are one of the most important points of strength for a martial artist. There are some red marks on the calves exposed by Ye Jingtang, and there must be some on the thighs. It stands to reason that they should be treated with medicine, but...

Master Xuanji glanced at Ye Jingtang, who had fallen asleep, trying to act normal and pretend that he was not afraid of medical treatment.

But isn’t this a lie? If you see it, you will never forget it for the rest of your life...

Master Xuanji thought about it for a moment, took out the handkerchief from her arms, covered her eyes just like she did when she had a night terror last time, then tore open her trouser legs with a little force, touched her hands with Jade Dragon Ointment, and continued to apply the medicine...

Tick ​​tick tick~~

The crisp sound of rain made the cabin feel extraordinarily quiet, and only the birds outside the door could be heard talking to themselves.

Night Terror Hall fell into a deep sleep, with no pressure or dreams, just letting the body repair various wounds after the fierce battle.

Originally, this baby-like sleep would last until night or early tomorrow morning.

But I don’t know how long it took, and my consciousness was suddenly awakened. Half asleep and half awake, I felt a warm hand as soft as gel, soothing the muscles of my lower abdomen and legs. It was very comfortable...

Ye Jingtang was not awake yet, and he didn't know where he was. He thought by default that Sanniang or Ning'er was treating his injuries, and his body instinctively reacted as it should under the comfort.

But soon, Night Terror Hall realized something was wrong...

! !

Ye Jingtang woke up suddenly. He opened his right eye and looked around. He saw the real Xuanji in a snow-colored dress, sitting sideways in front of him. He was holding a medicine bottle in his left hand and was applying medicine in his right hand. His expression was very peaceful, and his eyes were Blindfolded.

Because I can't see the cynical eyes, my long shawl hair and soft cheeks look a bit like a fairy. My shoulders and waist are just right, and my clothes are held high in front of me to draw a perfect arc...

"..."

Ye Jingtang was still a little confused. After a quick glance, his eyes moved down again and looked at the source of the touch - the hand of Xuanji, who was applying Jade Dragon Cream to the thigh muscles. Not far from the white palm, there was the arrogant villain...

? !

Wow——

Ye Jingtang turned up and pulled up his torn pants to cover the inconvenient places, while holding Xuanji's hand down.

As a result, he exerted too much force and felt pain in the muscles all over his body, causing him to gasp:

"hiss--"

"Um?"

In order to keep her mind from wandering, Xuanji had been silently reciting Taoist classics. She really didn't notice that there was a villain who was eyeing her.

Realizing that Ye Jingtang had turned upside down and grabbed her hand, Master Xuanji frowned and said:

"What? Do you think I am plotting against you while you are sleeping?"

Ye Jingtang looked at Xuanji's innocent face and didn't understand what was going on. His old face was a little uneasy. After making sure that she didn't notice, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief:

"Uh...what...I thought I was in danger, so I woke up...my mind wasn't clear yet..."

Xuanji's right hand was tightly held, and she was a little dissatisfied when Ye Jingtang refused to let go. She tried to pull off the blindfold with her left hand, but as soon as she raised her hand, Ye Jingtang grabbed her left hand again!

? ?

Master Xuanji's hands were held, and she sat up straighter:

"Yejingtang, I am Commander Liren. Do you think I won't beat you if you are injured?"

The Night Terror Hall is now so tense that the villain can't be held down by his pants. If he lets go, he will be gone. How can he dare to let Master Xuanji pull down the blindfold? He explained awkwardly:

"My pants are torn..."

"Can't you just cover it? Are you afraid that I can lift it up and peek at you?"

"You should keep it covered. I'll finish applying the medicine myself first. It's inconvenient to cover it."

Master Xuanji thought about it, so he didn't say anything more. After Ye Jingtang let go of his hand, he didn't take off the blindfold. He just sat back a little, leaned against the wall, picked up a towel and wiped his hands.

Ye Jingtang actually wanted to let Xuanji go out, but it was raining so heavily outside, so it was not suitable. He thought about it and acted naturally, and continued to apply the medicine, while trying to stay calm and calm, trying to suppress the villain.

Master Xuanji picked up the wine gourd and took a sip. Suddenly there was a sound of night terror. Tang had just drank the wine in the gourd mouth to mouth, wiped the mouth of the gourd, and asked at the same time:

"When did you figure out those knives today?"

"You were drunk last night. When I was practicing swordsmanship alone, I had a sudden idea, and then I figured it out."

"Just last night?"

"It doesn't count as one night. I've been practicing swordsmanship since I was a child, and I've been thinking about ways to break the Dragon Slaying Order in the past few months. Last night I just thought about luck. Being able to win depends on the accumulated experience of the past ten years. And the unexpected encounter with the surge in skill during this period..."

"Of course I know this. Even so, if you can study a move thoroughly in one night, your understanding is amazing. But this move of yours is not good. Moves that hurt yourself before hurting the enemy can only be used as a life-threatening weapon. The first move is to risk your life. , I’m afraid you’ll have to stay in bed every day from now on.”

Ye Jingtang naturally knew the shortcomings of this move, so he chuckled and said:

"It's just one move between masters. It's better to be injured than to be killed. However, this move can only be used as a killing move. Today Xuanyuan Chao's eight-step mad sword attack started. Although there was a gap in explosive power, it was higher than the eight-step mad sword. The upper limit, but without paying any price, the attainment is really worthy of the reputation of the master of swordsman. I will just use that trick in the future."

Master Xuanji was slightly surprised: "Are you still planning to go back and let Xuanyuan Chao teach you?"

"I know how to play the knife with my back. I know there is a way to go. I just have to figure it out by myself. It won't waste much time."

"..."

Master Xuanji thought so, and said no more, leaning against the wall and drinking some wine, while Ye Jingtang finished applying the medicine.

But not long after the two of them were silent, their ears suddenly twitched slightly at the same time, and they heard the sound of breaking wind coming from very far away.

The next moment, the birds outside also issued a warning:

"Gugu——"

Ye Jingtang's expression changed slightly, and he immediately stood up and picked up the saber from his side.

Master Xuanji also quickly pulled off her blindfold and held the Acacia Sword in front of Ye Jingtang. Her expression no longer had the cynicism of the past, only concentration and caution remained.

Tap tap tap——

But in a moment, the sound of breaking wind in the distance crossed the lake for several miles and came nearby. A familiar voice sounded from the wind and rain outside:

"Ye boy, how are your injuries?"

"..."

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the sound, and Ye Jingtang quickly responded:

"Master Qiu, I'm applying the medicine, put on your clothes right away..."

"No, no, no, I'm just here to ask. In the evening, the major sects in Zezhou are having a banquet in Nanhu City. They are probably inviting you to establish a sect in Zezhou. Will you go?"

"Please ask me to establish a sect?"

"It's just a matter of circumstance. Wu Kui all have their own territory. You took over from Mr. Xuanyuan, and you have no family or sect. According to the common practice in the world, the next step is to establish a sect to make money.

"The major sects in Zezhou say they are inviting you, but they are actually asking for information. If you stay in Zezhou, they will discuss privately and give up their industrial land to you, so that you don't have to come to teach them the rules. If you don't want to, they will also give you a copy. A generous gift and congratulations. This is the way of life in the world."

Ye Jingtang suddenly realized it, thought about it and said:

"I am the deputy commander of Heiya. There is no leader in the world of Yunzhou. I will have to develop in Yunzhou in the future."

"Being the overlord of Yunzhou...to be honest, you are the only one who dares to do this from ancient times to the present. Okay, I'll go back and talk to those leaders."

Tap tap tap...

The sound of treading water quickly became distant, and in the blink of an eye there was no movement.

Ye Jingtang shook his head and smiled. Just as he was thinking whether the title of 'Overlord of Yunzhou' would offend the empress, he suddenly noticed a chill in the cabin...

?

Ye Jingtang looked down and saw Xuanji, who was as tall as the tip of his nose, leaning in front of him while keeping his sword raised on guard.

At this moment, he turned to look behind him, his seductive peach blossom eyes twitched obviously, and a murderous look gradually appeared on his cheeks...

At the same time, he also felt that in order to protect him, Master Xuanji leaned directly against him with his back, and the full moon was pressed against his waist. Although he was distracted and said a few words, the villain had not returned to normal yet, and he must have pushed the girl. …

I go……

Ye Jingtang's expression froze, and he quickly pulled up the torn trouser legs, trying to cover it up, but it was obviously too late.

Master Xuanji turned around and saw the villain with a fierce look on his face. Even though he had an extraordinary mind, it was like being struck by lightning, and he felt that he was unclean.

It would be fine if the Night Terror Hall was in normal condition. There was nothing he could do if his pants were torn and exposed, but this brat actually...

He had such a big reaction to her!

Isn't this because he has evil intentions towards her?

Master Xuanji narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly pulled out the Acacia Sword.

Cha~~

Ye Jingtang's expression suddenly changed, and he transformed into a disciple of the Covering Crotch Sect:

"Hey, wait a minute, Heroine, don't be impulsive, I'm injured..."

"What do you mean?"

Xuanji's long sword pointed diagonally at the ground, with a very dangerous look in his eyes:

"For a teacher who is blatantly interested in the person he likes, do you think I will be like an ordinary woman and just accept it without saying a word?"

"No, no, misunderstanding. I passed out just now. Someone helped me apply medicine while I was half asleep. I subconsciously thought I was Ning'er, so..."

Xuanji's eyes narrowed slightly: "You're already awake, we've been chatting for a long time, and you've been holding up this dirty thing to talk to me?"

Ye Jingtang's old face was a little confused: "It's not like you can control your arms and legs at will. You can lift them up when you say it, and put them down when you say it. It takes time for the energy and blood to subside. I have absolutely no interest in you, and I have no interest at all..."

?

Master Xuanji felt that Ye Jingtang was telling the truth, but why was it so unpleasant? She took a breath:

"What I see is what I believe. Why should I believe what you say? You have already committed an offence. Tell yourself what to do!"

Ye Jingtang tentatively said: "Last time you had to touch me for a long time, how about we clear things up?"

Master Xuanji felt that Ye Jingtang was a bit thick-skinned:

"Liangqing? Do you think I am a three-year-old girl?"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"..."

Master Xuanji actually didn't know what to do. She couldn't let her apprentice's lover be responsible for her. After thinking about it for a moment, she removed the sword:

"I am a monk and do not get married. What happened just now can be treated as if it never happened. But you have to help me do something."

"What's up?"

"I am already in the realm of semi-immortal, only one step away from the three immortals on the mountain, but I am stuck in the bottleneck of my body, and it is difficult to make progress in this life. Only the Singing Dragon Picture in the world can make a person reborn. I have been searching for these years, but I have found nothing. …”

Ye Jingtang understands this statement. Once the body is finalized, it cannot be changed. Therefore, the physical foundation often determines the upper limit of a martial artist.

Just like the official jade armor, because the foundation was not laid well, it left flaws on the body. No matter how good the understanding is and how hard you work, you can't enter the realm of unity between nature and man.

Ninety percent of the martial arts warriors in history reached their peak before the age of thirty, and then failed to take another step forward until their death. Most of them were because they reached the maximum limit that their bodies could support.

Hearing that Master Xuanji was stuck in a bottleneck and needed a dragon drawing, Ye Jingtang thought for a while and asked:

"What are you stuck on? Which picture do you need?"

Real person Xuanji needs five pictures, but this is obviously a lion's mouth, and Ye Jingtang will look at it as a fool. For this reason, he only picked two who knew their approximate destination, and Ye Jingtang might get them:

"The only thing that can go wrong with a warrior's body is the muscles, bones and skin. I have already learned the Jade Bone Diagram. I also need two diagrams, the Golden Scale Diagram and the Dragon Elephant Diagram. The Golden Scale Diagram is in the hands of Jiang Zhahu, and the Dragon Elephant Diagram should be in the hands of a certain vassal king... …”

Because Ye Jingtang felt really uncomfortable, he sat on the mat again, thought for a while and frowned:

"The Singing Dragon Picture is not a piece of cake. I have one, and it can dominate as well as Jiang Zahu. Just because I accidentally bumped into you, I have to find the Singing Dragon Picture for you, and I have to find two more..."

Master Xuanji knew the importance of the Minglong Picture, and naturally understood that his request was a bit unreasonable. She slowly sat on the opposite side and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, you found it. I'm just borrowing it. Even if it is required to be handed over to the court according to the law, I will ask the Holy Father for instructions and let you be the custodian. You can learn from whomever you want, without asking the court for instructions. And the court You will not be short of any reward you deserve. I can also grant you an additional wish."

"..."

When Ye Jingtang heard this condition, his heart couldn't help but move.

Da BenBen unconditionally let him learn the Jade Bone Diagram, and he cared about him very much. He always wanted to reciprocate and let Da BenBen learn the Dragon Elephant Diagram.

But after taking it out, you have to hand it in according to the rules. Keeping it privately is taboo. If you want to teach others in the future, you have to say hello to the court and go to the palace to check it out.

It would be much easier to handle this matter if we could get the right to make decisions freely through the mouth of Master Xuanji...

Thinking of this, Ye Jingtang asked again:

"If I really find it, what wish can Fairy Lu fulfill for me?"

Master Xuanji came to Minglong Tu to extend his apprentice's life. He also knew that this task was very difficult. In order to encourage Ye Jingtang, he deliberately looked unserious and said with a smile:

"It's up to you. As long as you're not afraid of being sent to a purification room, I won't be able to consider some inappropriate requests that are immoral."

Ye Jingtang felt that these words were teasing him again, so he shook his head and said:

"I don't think anything wrong about you, so I won't make any unreasonable demands. Let's wait until we find it. If we really want something, just don't default on it."

"It's a deal."

When Ye Jingtang came out with Master Xuanji, he didn't bring the dragon elephant picture with him, and he couldn't take it out now. He had to find a reasonable source. He didn't say much at the moment and continued to apply the wound medicine.

"You go out first, don't look at anything inappropriate."

"Ah……"

…
