"Why thirty-eight? Huh? Why thirty-eight?"
In Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Zhao Changhe, who was so arrogant just now, sat there and complained: "Does this crappy book have a grudge against me? Although the eighty-eight I gave it before had a bit of the meaning of goodbye, I can also understand it as getting rich, isn't that good? What is this now, a friend of women? This is too much!"
Yue Hongling sat beside him expressionlessly and helped him apply medicine on the wound in the Dan Zhong area. Seeing that he was chattering endlessly, she couldn't help but hit him.
Zhao Changhe held his head and said, "I'm injured, and you still hit me."
"What a coincidence, I'm also injured." Yue Hongling said expressionlessly: "Tell me how you got this trick of being stabbed in a vital point but looking like being stabbed in an ordinary place? Is it the same trick that the Flower-Picking Goddess used to help me with my acupuncture?"
Zhao Changhe's eyes rolled around and he stopped talking.
"It turns out that they have been hooking up for a long time. Go to hell!" Yue Hongling increased the force of bandage, strangling Zhao Changhe so that he screamed.
"I really have nothing to do with her! This is a misunderstanding..."
"Then who are you related to? Tang Buqi's aunt? You call me nephew all the time, so affectionate!"
Zhao Changhe: “???”
Yue Hongling seemed to feel that she had said something wrong. How could she have said such a thing
She tilted her head in anger: "What was that sentence you said in a low voice? I couldn't hear it clearly because I was far away. Tell me now."
Zhao Changhe looked around and lowered his voice again: "He should be a member of the Four Symbols Sect, and a high-ranking one. He is one of the Seven Southern Stars of the Twenty-Eight Stars. I wonder if his father knows about this..."
Yue Hongling was stunned, eyes widened: "In other words, he is not a member of the Maitreya Sect, but a high-ranking member of the Four Symbols Sect. In the end, he is still a demon sect member who wants to rebel? Then the Cao Gang..."
"Yes... The layout of the Four Symbols Sect is much deeper than that of the Maitreya Sect. For the Maitreya Sect, even if they are allowed to make a big splash first, it feels like they are just the vanguard of the king."
"Then why don't you expose it?"
Zhao Changhe coughed twice and stopped talking.
Yue Hongling understood and glanced at him: "Xia Chichi wants to rebel, you support it, right? Are you going to ask for a mask to play with tomorrow?"
Zhao Changhe smiled apologetically and said, "That's not necessary."
It's okay to let Chi Chi wear a mask and play games with me...
Yue Hongling sneered, "No wonder Wan Dongliu framed the Hu people. There were so many targets to kill, but he chose you who was more difficult to deal with... He thought you were a traitor and had an unclear relationship with the Saint. Killing you is a good thing, right?"
"Ahem..."
"So you think it was a mistake and you can't bring yourself to kill him in revenge?"
"Well, it should be said that it was indeed a misunderstanding. After all, I am fine. And..." Zhao Changhe sighed, "If we really kill him, we can't leave Yangzhou. He will have to lie in bed for at least a few months if his stomach is ripped open. It's enough to vent our anger."
Yue Hongling was lost in thought for a while, and some of the details just now came together.
Wan Dongliu clearly wanted to kill Zhao Changhe before, but he held back when he stabbed him in the Danzhong point just now. This was because Zhao Changhe deliberately kept his secret to himself when he told him his secret, which made Wan Dongliu realize that he might have misunderstood the relationship between Zhao Changhe and the Four Symbols Sect. So he held back and stopped others from attacking him afterwards, as he knew he had stabbed the wrong person and he deserved to be stabbed.
The two seemingly rough and rude men of the underworld were quick-witted, sharper than many scholars. The two parties who had just been chopped open might have a better understanding of each other than Wan Dongliu's close subordinates, and they were truly "insiders".
I originally wondered if staying in Xiaoxiang Pavilion would be dangerous, but now I can be sure that it is as safe as Mount Tai.
The world is really going to be in chaos, and heroes are emerging in large numbers.
She thought absentmindedly for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
Isn’t that great
This is the exciting world of Jianghu.
Yue Hongling no longer spoke with sarcasm, and said seriously: "Changhe, you secretly learned our sword and knife skills. I don't know why you can learn so quickly. This is not something that can be learned by just watching. Someone needs to demonstrate it to you in detail, and you need to be talented and insightful. Both are indispensable. I believe you are extremely talented, but where can someone teach you?"
Zhao Changhe could tell Yue Hongling anything, but he subconsciously felt that he couldn't talk about the matter of the Heavenly Book, so he could only say: "Just think of me as a genius."
Yue Hongling did not argue, but just said: "No matter how you learn, I don't recommend you to learn everything. It is better to study a few things in depth than to bite off more than you can chew. Also, some methods may not be suitable for you. At most, you can take their advantages and integrate them into your own swordsmanship. Don't put the cart before the horse."
Zhao Changhe nodded: "Indeed, for example, I feel that Chi Li's sword intent is not suitable for me. It feels awkward no matter how I use it. Chunshui sword intent is also scratching the itch without the cooperation of related skills. I plan to give it up slowly and take its soft meaning at most. The most suitable one to integrate into my swordsmanship is still yours, and I have mastered it most. Back then in the mountain village, you taught me a lot..." Yue Hongling tilted her head slightly: "Now I can teach you thoroughly."
"don't want."
"Um?"
"Even if it's yours, I only want to refer to a little bit of the sword spirit. My path is the most crazy sword after all. If I learn too much, it will affect my own path."
Yue Hongling looked at him steadily and smiled slightly: "I'll wait for your knife."
He has his own firm will and does not need to be taught like a young child.
Yue Hongling stretched and wanted to leave: "Okay, take good care of your injuries. I'm next door. Call me if you need anything."
"Sister Yue." Zhao Changhe called her hesitantly.
Yue Hongling looked back, only to see Zhao Changhe stammering for a long time before saying, "If you practice dual cultivation, you can recover quickly, including the minor injury on your shoulder. If you also know how to practice dual cultivation, and use them together, it won't take long for you to recover."
Yue Hongling's eyes widened: "Isn't that the operation of internal force? External injuries can also be used?"
"It should be possible. At least it is effective for the human body's mechanisms of healing and hematopoiesis."
Yue Hongling was a little hesitant.
According to my previous experience, that kind of dual cultivation is really nothing... But it is still dual cultivation, especially when you are also working together and going back and forth. Is it really something that normal friends can do continuously
"I see you've been stuck at the eighth level of the Mysterious Gate for more than half a year. I don't know why the ninth level is so difficult, but from feeling your true energy before, I know that the solitary yin must be one of the obstacles. It may not be the main one, after all, Tang Wanzhuang and the others were able to break through. Some sects still have to retain pure yin and pure yang, but they may have other secret methods. You are just an ordinary warrior, and in my opinion, it should be an influencing factor. Why not try to solve it?"
Yue Hongling was a little amused: "Can you give me some advice?"
"Does that make sense?"
"… have."
"It's fine as long as it makes sense." Zhao Changhe said seriously, "How can people in the martial arts world have so many rules and regulations? Knowing that it's normal to practice martial arts, the valiant and upright Yue Hongling is really afraid of a name?"
Yue Hongling slammed the table and said, "What are you afraid of? Tell me the formula!"
“…” You are the older sister, but sometimes you are clearly the younger sister.
After all, she was a girl younger than herself.
… …
Tang Buqi is "visiting" Wan Dongliu's room.
It was called a visit, but in fact his face looked as stinky as if he had swallowed a dozen rotten duck eggs: "Brother Wan, don't say that I am inhumane and I have to question you at this time... Was what Zhao Changhe said just now true or false?"
"It's true." Wan Dongliu lay there wrapped up like a zombie, but his expression was very calm. As long as the fact that he was a member of the Four Symbols Sect was not leaked out, what Zhao Changhe had revealed before was nothing.
Tang Buqi said angrily: "If you really have us all in this plan, it is not a bad thing for you to deal with Maitreya and the Hu people. Why can't you just say it openly?"
"… I want to assassinate the prefect, and the Cao Gang wants to dominate Yangzhou. I also told you?" Wan Dongliu smiled: "Well, it's not impossible to tell you. Maybe I can collude with Master Tang, but your aunt will not like these things, and Master Tang will not agree. Why waste your energy? In the end, you will leak your plan and fail to accomplish anything."
Tang Buqi said with a straight face: "I really wouldn't agree... and now I know."
"Then you know." Wan Dongliu smiled calmly, "The situation is already like this. Yangzhou can't afford to make any more damage. If the Cao Gang moves, even the superficial prosperity will be gone... Why do you think Zhao Changhe spared my life? What's the reason for Master Tang to deal with me? The real murderer who tried to assassinate the prefect? I'm afraid that if the people knew about it, they would praise me as a righteous man, and Master Tang would become a villain. What's the point?"
Tang Buqi's face looked very ugly. He always felt that he was not the villain on the stage, but a clown.
Wan Dongliu said slowly, "What surprised me most about this matter is that Zhao Changhe's relationship with your Tang family and the Demon Suppression Division actually seemed very close... Maybe Young Master Tang didn't have much suspicion and thought he was a companion so he acted together, but why did Gong Chaoqun do that? Was it because Young Master Tang had a big reputation? I don't think it was that big of a deal."
Tang Buqi: “…”
Wan Dongliu thought this guy was really cute and couldn't help but laugh, "I think Mr. Tang wants to question me here. It would be better for him to find Zhao Changhe and find out the truth. That seems to be more important."
