Seeing that the man was about to die after being beaten, Fu Xueman suddenly bit off one of Feng Chen's toes, biting off a large piece of his shoe, and immediately blood was dripping. I saw Feng Chen's footsteps were getting slower and slower, and he was about to stop. Now that he was caught off guard and his toe was bitten off, it was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire, and he stepped on Fu Xueman's head.
The bitch suddenly flew out and ran along a hillside. Feng Chen shouted and chased after them, and the two dogs and bitches disappeared into the night one after the other.
The Shar Pei was completely frightened, looking at the direction where the two of them disappeared with his mouth wide open. I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. Have you ever seen ghosts fighting?"
“This… this… this is a fight between ghost officials…” The Shar Pei turned around, still shaking all over.
I laughed heartily and walked towards Miao Fengyi's house. This time I finally vented my anger. Without firing a single shot, I let the enemy collapse and disintegrate. With my eloquence, I instigated internal struggles among the people. It would be best if Fu Xueman was killed, so that I could get rid of the anger in my buddy's heart.
"They're done fighting, so they're going to come back, right? How can you be so happy?" The Shar-Pei kept looking back as he walked.
"Brother, why don't you use your brain? If the ghost officials fight, they will definitely be discovered by Yeyou, and Yeyou will definitely go back to the underworld to report. The underworld has strict rules, and ghost officials who fight will be severely punished. Even if neither of them dies, they will probably be thrown into the Niliwan Water Prison in a while. Why would they come to find us?" I said happily to the Shar Pei dog.
"Well, I don't know much about the underworld. What is the Niliwan Water Prison?"
I then explained the structure of the underworld to the Shar Pei dog, and soon arrived at the door of Miao Fengyi's house. The door was ajar, and it seemed that after I came out, Miao Fengyi and Shen Bing fell asleep and did not come out to visit. I hushed the Shar Pei dog and asked him to enter the door quietly so as not to wake up Miao Fengyi's father.
When I gently pushed the door open, I suddenly found that the oil lamp was on. Miao Fengyi's father leaned against the wall, tilting his head and looking at the two of us and the blood-stained girl in my arms. I thought to myself, how can I explain this to the old man? But the old man Miao blew out the oil lamp in a dull manner and lay down to sleep again.
I felt very strange. This was his home. Why didn't he even ask me a question when he saw me, his guest, coming back so late from outside, bringing two strangers with me, one of whom was injured
With this doubt, I quietly went upstairs. There was a washbasin in the room, half filled with water. I washed my hands and face first, then used a tissue to wipe the blood off Gu Xiaoning's face, and then put her on the bed. The Shar Pei and I sat on the floor, leaning against the wall, and slept for three hours in a daze, and then it was dawn.
Shen Bing knocked on the door in the morning. The Shar Pei and I stood up sleepily. She was stunned when she entered the room. She saw Gu Xiaoning covered in blood on the bed and rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things. After making sure she was not mistaken, she quietly pulled me out of the door and asked in a low voice: "What's going on? I feel more at ease if you bring a man back. Where did you bring Gu Xiaoning back?"
So I whispered to her what happened last night. She curled her lips and said, "You are disloyal. You left without telling me last night, and I missed a lot of things. The most infuriating thing is that you carried the girl around. Have you taken advantage of her enough?"
"well enough… "
"You dead head!" Shen Bing cursed in a low voice angrily and twisted my ear hard.
"I'm not saying that it's a good thing. I successfully used a strategy of sowing discord last night, causing Fu Xueman and Feng Chen to fight among themselves." I opened her hand unhappily.
At this time, Gu Xiaoning's weak voice came from the room: "Where am I? Who saved me?"
"It was Xifeng who saved you." The Shar-Pei dog answered from inside.
"Ah, is he here too?" the girl's voice sounded excited.
Shen Bing glared at me immediately, and I felt uneasy, muttering to myself, "Don't fall for me, I can't afford this trouble."
"Yes, he is just outside the door." said the Shar Pei.
"That's great. With Brother Xi here, I'm not afraid of anything." Gu Xiaoning said happily.
Shen Bing gently twisted my arm and whispered in my ear, "Did you have sex with her in the Northeast without telling me?"
"What happened?" I pretended not to know what she meant.
"Eye-to-eye contact, or flirting or something?"
"You were so angry that you wanted to fly away. How could I be in that mood?" I shook my head like a rattle and said firmly.
"That's true. But why does the girl sound so trustful of you?" Shen Bing was still worried, and her beautiful eyes turned around.
"You're making a fuss about this. We had only known each other for two days at that time, and you were like this, weren't you? Any girl would feel safe when she sees me." I boasted without any hesitation.
Shen Bing's face turned slightly red: "Bah, I lied to you at that time, otherwise what should I do if you refused to help me?" Then she wrinkled her nose at me and walked into the house.
I couldn't help but laugh behind her. This girl was being stubborn. In fact, she had already started to like me at that time, but she just refused to admit it.
Gu Xiaoning was very happy to see us, but when I mentioned the incident with Yazi last night, she started crying again. Among her relatives, only her younger brother and this cousin were left. Her younger brother was working in the south and hooking up with a woman. He didn't come back even after his parents died. Gu Xiaoning hated him to death. In her heart, there was only this one and only relative, Yazi. Last night, in order to protect her, his soul was dispersed by Old Yan and Old Qian, and she will never see him again.
She cried and told us that now all her relatives were gone, and seeing us here was no different from seeing her relatives. Shen Bing hated this kind of thing the most, and she hugged her head and cried with Gu Xiaoning. Damn, you are not telling people not to be sad, but you are also making trouble. I and Shar Pei said a few words to persuade them, and they stopped crying.
When Gu Xiaoning told me the purpose of this visit, I said I heard everything last night and asked her where her uncle was now. Gu Xiaoning said that he was hiding from the Death Valley and didn't know where he was. He just came to her in her dreams and she couldn't see him normally.
My father and Boss Gu are close friends, and since we got to know each other during our trip to the Northeast, Gu Xiaoning can't be considered an outsider. So I told her the purpose of our visit and promised to help her get the jade refining technique, but I asked her to help us glue the broken blood jade together. Gu Xiaoning agreed without hesitation.
I asked her curiously, what exactly is the jade refining technique that makes so many people covet it
Gu Xiaoning pondered for a long time and said, "Originally, this is the secret of the Gu family's jade refining, which cannot be told to outsiders. But Brother Xi, you are not an outsider, so I will tell you. The real method of jade refining is to refine the mind!"
"Refine the mind?" We three asked in surprise.
Gu Xiaoning nodded and said, "Because the Heart Refining Technique was too ostentatious, our ancestors changed it to Jade Refining Technique based on the idiom 'Golden outside, rotten inside'. But this also touched the way of heaven, causing the descendants of Jade Refining to suffer from five disadvantages and three deficiencies. Since my grandfather's generation stopped practicing Jade Refining Technique, the descendants have been spared from suffering. But Third Uncle didn't listen and secretly practiced Jade Refining Technique. Although he didn't commit any deficiencies, he couldn't even get a wife in the end and was destined to be lonely for the rest of his life."
"What exactly does the art of refining the mind mean?" Shen Bing asked impatiently.
