At night, the moonlight is cold.
Amid the rumbling sound, the stone door slowly opened, and Lu Sheng slowly walked out of the quiet room with a tired expression.
Continuous hard training for several hours, and all his energy has been concentrated all the time, even if he is full of energy and strong body now, he still can't support it.
Walking into the courtyard, he let out a long breath, but Lu Sheng felt extremely relieved.
"After soaking the medicinal soup so many times in a row and absorbing so much medicinal power, it's almost time to get started." Even Lu Sheng couldn't have imagined that he could really get started with Jinsha Gong in such a short period of time.
Originally, it would take at least ten days and a half month for this kind of hard martial arts to be mastered. However, because of his solid foundation, coupled with the precious medicinal soup and golden ointment, it is understandable that his progress has been shortened so much.
"Tomorrow, I will retreat for another day, and I think I will be able to really get started with Jinsha Gong, and at the same time use the modifier to upgrade it to Dacheng!" In the dark night, Lu Sheng's eyes were shining brightly.
"I don't believe that you can't stop the weirdness! If you can't do one hard skill, you can do two! If you can't do two, you can do three! If it keeps piling up, I want to see how powerful the real weirdness is!"
There was a faint fire burning in his heart, and he had discovered long ago, his deepest desire.
That is the thirst for fighting, the ultimate pursuit of excitement.
Compared with a boring life, he prefers such an urgent life and death, but he wants a happy battle!
"After the retreat tomorrow, I will start collecting Yin Qi items. Special treatment during special times. Anyone who dares not to give them will be hacked to death!" Lu Sheng licked his lips, turned around, and continued to enter the quiet room to start a new round. Round and round sleepless retreat.
... ... ... ... ...
next morning.
Inside Dongshan College, Chen Yunxi was wearing a white dress, revealing her fair calves below the knees. Her delicate and firm skin glowed like white jade in the sunlight.
Around her waist was a jet-black ribbon. The long hair fluttered, and the crescent-shaped silver earrings passed through the hair from time to time. Coupled with a delicate face and a plump and protruding upper body, many students and students regretted it.
It would be nice if the legs were shorter.
This is the common aspiration of most people.
Chen Yunxi walked into the gate of the college, looked at the main school building where the students came in and out, and at the fan-shaped dining hall on the side, which was the place to eat.
"Xixi, why are you back? Didn't you say you're going to be a teacher at the township college?" A girl she knew well saw Chen Yunxi from a distance, and immediately stepped forward to greet her enthusiastically.
"Yan'er, do you know that Lu Sheng is here?" Chen Yunxi grabbed her friend's arm and asked softly.
"Lu Sheng? I didn't see it. I haven't heard of him coming to the academy for a long time. Since he was selected last time. He is a person who is going to take the government exam. How can he have time to hang out with us? Why? He didn't talk to you Contact?" Yan'er was a little surprised.
She was also one of the people who watched her friends Chen Yunxi and Lu Sheng approach slowly. Although Lu Sheng was not very active from the beginning to the end, it was Chen Yunxi who took the initiative to attack, but on the surface, the two were quite a match.
Although Chen Yunxi's legs are too long and her body is flawed, she has a good family background. If Lu Sheng really wants to get back with her, life will be much easier in the future.
This Yanshan City is not an ordinary small city. Like the Jiulian City in Lu Sheng's hometown, there are dozens of Yanshan City under its jurisdiction. How can the rich families in such a small town compare with this place? This is the core giant city comparable to Fucheng.
"Hasn't he come all this time?" Chen Yunxi's eyes darkened.
"Well, it's really been a long time since I saw him. Maybe he's studying hard at home and waiting for the exam?" Yan'er guessed, looking at her friend's expression, she probably thought of some bad situations.
"Why don't you go to another place to ask? Or go to his friend Song Zhenguo?"
"Really..." Chen Yunxi smiled wryly, and looked at the time again, it was getting late. The prince will come soon. She should go back too.
"Forget it, I'm just here to take a look."
"Would you like to go to Wanxianglou to have a good meal together?" Yan'er has a lively personality and always eats delicious food.
"Forget it, I have to go back, I still have something to do at home." Chen Yunxi forced a smile.
"Is that so... What a pity... The new dishes at Banxianglou are very good." Yan'er said regretfully.
Saying goodbye to her friends, Chen Yunxi couldn't bear it after all, and went to the classroom where Song Zhenguo used to be. Even after asking several people, she didn't see Lu Sheng and the other two. It must be because she really didn't come to the academy anymore.
As for Lu Sheng's house, she had been there before, the door was locked, and the maid Qiao'er had also moved away, so she didn't know where she was going.
In desperation, Chen Yunxi had no choice but to turn around the carriage, and with the last trace of regret, rushed towards home.
... ... ... ... ... .
"Welcome Prince Wang, it really makes the humble house luxuriant." Chen Daozao accompanied Wang Shunyong, sitting in the main hall, and the maids kept serving delicious food and wine.
"Chen Weng, hurry up. I have been waiting for a long time for the strange object you mentioned before, and now it has finally arrived. Take it out and have a look!" Wang Shunyong is young, only twenty years old. Apart from Qu Fu, what I am most interested in are all kinds of strange things.
He regards these things as strange things, but they are the most interesting things to pass the time.
Hearing that Chen Daozao and Chen Weng came here with a rare thing, it just so happened that the other party invited him to appreciate it, so he readily agreed to come, and rushed there after breakfast.
"Young Master Wang, don't be in a hurry. The thing needs to be handled carefully before it can be demonstrated." Chen Daozao said with a smile.
Seeing his persuasion, Wang Shunyong couldn't be too brash and impatient, so he suppressed his temper.
After a while, a beautiful girl stepped forward, holding an exquisite silver plate in her hand, and on the plate was a square copper-colored mirror.
This mirror is a bit thick, as thick as a palm.
"Come here, Mr. Wang, this is the strange thing I called, the Universe Mirror!" Chen Daozao picked up the copper-colored mirror with a smile, and handed it to Wang Shunyong.
"The Mirror of Heaven and Earth?! What a name!" Wang Shunyong was taken aback, and immediately took it over, examining it carefully, "Does this mean that there is another meaning of universe in it?"
"Master Mingjian!" Chen Daozao said with a smile, "You just need to shake it lightly."
When Wang Shunyong heard the words, he shook immediately.
click.
There was only a crisp sound in the mirror, which seemed to be an organic spring sound. The original mirror actually slid to the right, and was replaced with a picture of landscape and cranes in the same color as the bronze mirror.
"Eh??" Wang Shunyong was surprised. Looking at the picture carefully, you can see that the details are vivid and detailed, as if a real crane is drinking water with its head bowed in the mirror.
He shook again, and suddenly there was another click.
The mirror rolled again, and unexpectedly changed another painting, this time it was a picture of a hundred flowers in full bloom, with countless densely packed flowers of all kinds clustered together, lifelike.
"This skill... is amazing, it must be painted by a famous artist!" Wang Shunyong is very talented in calligraphy and painting, so he can tell the level of the painting at a glance.
"Young master's eyes are as bright as a torch, and the old man admires it. But this thing is not just like this, you look here..." Chen Daozao carefully began to explain the mysterious gameplay to Wang Shunyong.
outside the door.
Chen Yunxi stood at the corner of the corridor, holding two glasses of clear green wine on a silver plate in her hand. This is a rare wine from a foreign country, one of which is specially prepared for Wang Shunyong.
She hid the medicine bag in her sleeve for the medicine, but at this moment, she felt sad and couldn't move her body no matter what.
"Hahahaha, Prince Wang, please move to the courtyard, I have one more good thing for you to appreciate."
"Anything else? I want to see, what is the second best thing Chen Weng prepared."
The voices of two people talking came from the corner in front, as if they had moved into the courtyard.
This is the main hall of the Chen Mansion. When they went out, the place they went to was the Linxiu Garden full of flowers and plants.
Chen Yunxi looked at the wine glass in front of her eyes, her eyes were moistened suddenly, and the grievance and distress in her heart were stuffed in her chest, which almost made her unable to breathe.
"Miss, it's your turn." The old butler stood aside, watching her helplessly and urged. He is also one of the insiders and a confidant of the Chen family. It's just that seeing such a young lady who grew up watching her grow up will end up like this in the end, he feels uncomfortable, but there is nothing he can do about it.
"Got it..." Gently covering her face with her sleeve, Chen Yunxi finally took out the medicine bag and shook it into two wine glasses. The fine white powder melted in water and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.
She tried her best to put on a smiling face, concealed the numbness in her eyes, and walked slowly towards the yard with a plate.
In the courtyard, Chen Daozao and Wang Shunyong were sitting opposite each other. On the stone table was the strange object of the universe mirror that they were playing with before, talking and laughing.
Chen Yunxi walked over with a silver tray.
"Come here, this is the purple jade wine that I personally sent someone to buy from Guoju Rongguo in the east. There is no such thing in other places. This wine is beautiful just by looking at it, and it is all top grade. Prince Wang Try it!"
Chen Daozao signaled to Wang Shunyong to choose first. Anyway, both cups were dosed with medicine. He had taken the antidote before and was not afraid of the power of the medicine, so any cup is fine.
When Wang Shunyong heard that it was from Dongguo, his face showed curiosity immediately.
"Since it's something from the Eastern Kingdom, I really want to see how it tastes!" He picked up a glass of wine with a smile,
Watching him pick up the wine glass and put it to his lips, Chen Daozao and the old housekeeper stared at him nervously.
Chen Yunxi, however, had Lu Sheng's face flashing in front of her eyes, and her vision gradually blurred.
Boom! !
at this time.
The courtyard door was slammed open with a burst of force.
A brawny man with disheveled hair rushed in with his bare upper body. He had a green dragon tattooed on his chest, his waist was thick and his arms were round, and he walked like a black bear clearing the way.
Behind the strong man, two rows of strong and strong men rushed in quickly, all of them were dressed in black and sported vigorous skills.
"It's him!" The brawny man pointed at Wang Shunyong, who was stupefied, and shouted loudly. "If you dare to steal my concubine, beat me hard! Beat me to death!!!"
Immediately, a group of strong men swarmed up, and ruthlessly pushed the frightened Wang Shunyong to the ground, and beat him severely, with fists as big as casserole raining down on him.
ah! ! !
Wang Shunyong was knocked to the ground on the spot, and was beaten violently by a group of strong men in turn.
Chen Daozao and Chen Yunxi from the Chen family looked dumbfounded. There were also a group of servants and nurses who wanted to fight, but the other party sent a few people to suppress the so-called masters of the Chen family.
Seeing this posture, the martial artists at the Tongli level didn't even dare to raise their heads, and kept silent.
