Qi Ning smiled and said: "Mr. Miao is quite aware of this matter at his age." He said helplessly: "I might as well say it directly. I want to get the matter settled, but Chi Danmei is in awe of Baiyun Island Master. , she told me that if the owner of Baiyun Island does not agree to the marriage, she will not be able to consummate the marriage with me, and I have no choice."
Mr. Miao was doubtful, but at this moment, he saw the strong man hurriedly came in and said, "Sir, someone is coming to the bamboo forest."
Mr. Miao and Mr. Duanmu both changed their colors slightly. Mr. Duanmu had already asked: "Is it really the White Feathered Crane that has arrived?" He asked: "How many people are there?"
The strong man said: "There are two figures coming this way."
Duanmu Lao immediately blew out the oil lamp, took something and stuffed it into Qining's mouth, and whispered: "Little Marquis, if you want to live longer, just be obedient." Thinking of something, he said to the strong man: "Chi Danmei was in that room. Clean took Chi Danmei away from the back door."
Mr. Miao warned in a cold voice: "If you touch Chi Danmei, don't blame me for being rude."
The strong man hurriedly said: "Don't dare." He went out of the door like a ghost. Duanmu Lao also followed and closed the wooden door. Mr. Miao went over and locked it from the inside. The room was dark and Qining was blocked. His mouth was speechless. When he saw Mr. Miao standing by the window, the window was sealed with wooden bars, but there were some gaps between the wooden bars. From the gaps, Qining could see outside. Qining thought to himself: When he came here before, Duanmu always hid here.
It was a quiet night, and after a while, he heard a clear voice coming from outside: "I wonder if Mr. Miao Wuji Miao is at home?" It was a young man's voice. When Qi Ning heard the voice, his body was slightly shaken.
Duanmu Lao coughed twice and said, "Who are you two? What advice can you ask Mr. Miao for?"
The young man said: "Is the old gentleman Mr. Miao? Dong Miao and Xili, two great doctors in the world, I would like to pay my respects...!"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Old Duanmu said: "This young master, I am not Mr. Miao. Mr. Miao just left a few days ago and will not be back for two days. I am just an old servant who helps him bring tea and water."
Qining thought to himself that it was no wonder that Mr. Duanmu was misunderstood as Mr. Miao. This Mr. Miao was called Miao Wuji. From his real name and title, everyone thought he was a man. Since he had never seen him before, they naturally did not expect that Mr. Miao would be an extremely ugly old woman. , but this Dong Miao Xili, it sounds like Miao Wuji's medical skills are comparable to those of the Immortal Saint Li Xigong, but when it comes to character, the two are worlds apart.
The young man smiled and said: "That's it. Old gentleman, this is the family teacher and is suffering from a minor illness. I heard that Mr. Miao has great medical skills, so I came here to visit Mr. Miao and asked Mr. Miao to help take a look."
"How did you know this place?" asked Duanmu Lao.
The young man said: "There is really no one the master wants to find. Old sir, will Mr. Miao come back in two days?"
Duanmu Lao said: "Yes, if you two want to see a doctor, I'm afraid you have to wait a few days. But if it is just a minor illness, I would advise you to find another doctor to avoid delaying the condition. The gentleman said that he will come back in the next two days. , I just left it casually, I don’t dare to guarantee whether it will come back as scheduled.”
"Stop talking nonsense." A rough and cold voice said: "Where did Miao Wuji go? Now that I'm here, I have to find him."
Old Duanmu said: "This old gentleman is quite impatient. If the old gentleman is ill, it is better to calm down so as not to aggravate the condition." After a pause, he said: "Mr. Miao is not here. You two came from afar. It is getting late. There are no inns within a few dozen miles of this place. If you don't mind, you can stay here tonight. There is an empty room over there, so you two can stay there."
"In this way, we have Mr. Lao." The young man thanked him and said, "Master, shall we stay here?"
"We will wait until when Miao Wuji comes back." The rough and cold voice said: "There is food here, prepare some food for us." Although he came to Ghost Bamboo Forest to ask for something, his tone was arrogant. , without the slightest courtesy.
Old Duanmu said: "Young master, you are a monk, so you naturally eat non-vegetarian food. I wonder if your master can eat non-vegetarian food? If not, I will prepare a vegetarian meal for you."
The rough and cold voice said: "I don't eat vegetarian food, and I am not a monk. If you have any fish and meat, just bring it to me. I will give you money later."
The young man said: "Old sir, my master is not a monk, and I have already returned to secular life. I am not a disciple of Buddhism, so I have no taboos."
Old Duanmu said: "This is better, please come with me." Hearing the footsteps outside, he went to the house where Chi Danmei was previously.
Qi Ning heard clearly in the wooden house. He was very familiar with the voices of the two people. He didn't dare to make a conclusion at first. After hearing the last few words, he had no doubts. He was surprised and thought to himself about these two people. How did a man become a master and a disciple, and why did he come here from Chu
Judging from the voices, the two people were actually King Mu Ye and Qi Yu.
King Muye was imprisoned by Daguangming Temple for eighteen years, but suddenly broke out of prison, turning Daguangming upside down. The ten great monks of Daguangming Temple joined forces, but they were unable to do anything to King Muye. It was not until Master Kongzang, the abbot of Daguangming Temple, took action that Qi Ning was on par with King Muye and was in the temple at the time. He witnessed King Muye kidnapping Qi Yu and rushing into the Hall of Light, but there was no news about King Muye and Qi Yu since then.
Qi Ning has always wondered whether King Muye was put under house arrest by Daguangming Temple again, but Daguangming Temple is like a small kingdom. What happened in the temple is strictly sealed and no details are disclosed to the outside world. Qining has not gone up the mountain since then, and he does not know about this. How will the two of them end up
Recently, he suddenly heard the voices of two people, and he was naturally shocked. He thought that after Qi Yu was kidnapped by King Mu Ye, King Mu Ye would become more ferocious, and Qi Yu's life would have been ruined long ago at the hands of King Mu Ye. Here, Qi Yu came to the Ghost Bamboo Forest with Mu Ye Wang today, and even called Mu Ye Wang master, which was really unbelievable.
He was confused, but Mr. Miao stood by the window in silence. After a moment, there was only a "crack" sound, and the door was pushed open. Duanmu Lao stepped in and quickly closed the door. Mr. Miao whispered: " What's the origin?"
"I don't know." Duanmu Lao said softly: "The young man seems to be a monk. The incense scar on his head is still there, but he said he has returned to secular life. The old man has unkempt hair, like a beggar, but his skills are unfathomable. "
"A master?" Mr. Miao perked up.
Duanmu Lao said in a low voice: "The young monk's steps are frivolous. It seems that he is easy to deal with, but the old man is by no means an ordinary person. I'm afraid we are no match." After a pause, he said softly: "I took a look at his hand. The pulse is different from ordinary people, and it seems to be close to the heavenly pulse."
Mr. Miao was a little surprised: "Another person close to Tianmai?"
Old Duanmu said: "I paid special attention to the protruding meridians on his wrist. I can't be mistaken. Sir, we haven't found anyone close to the Tianmai in more than ten years. It's good now. Two came in one day. If the old one is Also, with two materials, there will be a big breakthrough this time."
"Has the oil lamp been lit?" Mr. Miao asked.
Old Duanmu said: "It's already been ordered. They didn't realize it, and they probably didn't notice it. Sir, I'm preparing food for them now. Do you want to do something with it?"
Mr. Miao hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "If the oil lamp can't subdue them, even if they tamper with the food, it will be useless. The origin of these two people is unknown and they can't figure out the details. If they find out that there are tampering in the food, , on the contrary, it’s not good." After thinking for a while, he said: "The poisonous scent of the oil lamp is something I spent several years practicing, so there will be no problem, won't our little Marquis be captured by us?"
Duanmu Lao said: "Then I will prepare meals for them. The poisonous scent of the oil lamp will be effective within half an hour. By then we will have another fat cow." Without saying much, he turned around and went out, and opened the house again. Close the door.
Qi Ning knew how powerful the poisonous incense was, and thought that King Muye seemed to be falling into the hands of these people, but he was very strange in his heart. He secretly wondered what the purpose of Mr. Miao's search for people with strange pulses was.
The bamboo forest was dark, and everything was quiet. Qining was tied up with a tendon rope and poisoned by poisonous incense. At this time, his whole body could not move. He thought to himself that tonight was really dangerous. Of course, Mr. Miao wanted to experiment on himself, but If he was discovered by Qi Yu, that boy would be incompatible with him and would never be polite to him. Even if Bai Yuhe really arrived here early, he would probably not be a match for Muye King.
Time passed, and after half a day, the door of the house was pushed open again. As soon as Duanmu came in, he said happily: "Sir, we succeeded. Although the old monster has deep internal strength, he still can't resist the poisonous fragrance. He and the little monk They have all been poisoned and are lying on the ground."
Mr. Miao laughed strangely, like a witch, and said: "No matter what his martial arts skills are, if you enter the old woman's ghost bamboo forest, your life and death will be in the hands of the old woman." When he walked to the door of the house, he was about to go out. Suddenly he thought of something and turned around. Turning around and walking to the wooden table, Guoguo said with a smile: "I almost forgot about the little Marquis. Little Marquis, the old woman was afraid that you would be lonely, so I found a companion for you. The old woman kept her word and promised to let you go." Look at what we are going to do, and we will cut the old monster first so that you can see clearly." Qi Ning suddenly raised his hand, and in the dimness, Qining couldn't see clearly what she was going to do, but suddenly I felt a tingling pain in my arms, and then I felt a tingling pain in my thighs. In the blink of an eye, my hands and feet felt numb and completely unconscious.
I was fascinated by the poisonous fragrance before, but I didn't have the strength, but the feeling was still there, but now it was better. I don't know what the old witch did to make Qining feel nothing in his body.
"Little Marquis, the old lady knows that you are also a very powerful master." Mr. Miao said softly: "The old lady doesn't know martial arts. If you wait for you to recover your skills, the old lady will have no choice but to be slaughtered by you, so I can only offend you." He laughed strangely. , led Duanmu Lao out of the door.
