Chapter 15: Deadwood Hands
Yang Ning carried Mu Lao on his back and shuttled through the mountains and forests, Mu Lao lay on Yang Ning's back, pointing the way from time to time, pointing in the direction, but it was extremely dark and difficult to walk, Yang Ning knew that this old guy was just to avoid the enemy, so he deliberately went deep into the messy and dark places, and wanted to throw this old thing down from behind him several times, but thinking that this guy had killed more than a dozen big men of the Five Poison Palace alone, he was still very jealous in his heart and did not dare to act rashly.

Although the old man was not heavy, he coughed for a while every once in a while, and every time he coughed, the fishy smell with the smell of blood came to his nose, making Yang Ning extremely uncomfortable.
The mountain road is rugged, the higher and higher the walk, this time it is actually two hours, Yang Ning is already tired and a little unbearable, at this time has entered the deep mountains, Yang Ning was about to stop to rest, suddenly heard Mu Lao said: "Is there a cave over there?" He raised his hand and pointed not far away.
Yang Ning looked over, and saw a pile of thorns and withered vines in front of him, but it seemed that there was really a black cave, and when he approached it, Mu Lao said, "Let's rest here first." ”
Yang Ning was so tired that he opened the dead vines, and there was a rather spacious cave behind him, and when he entered it, it was so dark that he could hardly see anything, so he put Mu Lao down first, and then sat down.
Mu Lao said: "You are guarding the entrance of the cave, and if you find any movement, tell the old man immediately." ”
Yang Ning sneered in his heart: "Lao Tzu carried you here, tired, and now let me be the janitor?" Wait for your injuries to attack, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you. "Sitting in front of the cave, my mouth is dry at this time, but there is nothing I can do.
After a while, I only heard Mu Lao's breathing extremely light, and he turned around and called softly, "Old man, how do you feel now?" The injury is fine, right? ”
Mu Lao did not answer, and seemed to be asleep.
Yang Ning shouted again, Mu Lao was still silent, Yang Ning sneered, at this time he also adapted to the light in the dim, saw Mu Lao curled up in the hole, stood up, slowly approached the past, clenched his fists, hesitated, and finally shook his head, secretly thinking that this old guy was seriously injured, although he suffered a little, but after all, he didn't really hurt himself, and there was really no need to take advantage of others.
However, this gloomy old guy is really disgusting, and the ghost doesn't believe that he will take him out of the mountains and forests, but once this old guy recovers, he will bring himself big trouble, Yang Ning naturally doesn't want to be controlled by this old guy, seeing that he is motionless and already asleep, it is a good time to take the opportunity to leave.
Niutouling is undulating, Mu Lao is injured again, and now if he leaves, it is impossible for Mu Lao to find himself again.
And Yang Ning always has Fluttershy's safety in mind, so naturally he can't delay here.
He turned around and walked lightly out of the cave, and as soon as he stepped out of the hole, he felt something hit his knee, and his whole leg was numb, and he instantly stiffened, and he could no longer move.
He was taken aback, but he heard Mu Lao's eerie voice behind him: "Do you want to leave?" ”
"Mu Lao, you really misunderstood." Yang Ning reacted very quickly, and already smiled: "I saw that you were always injured, and I wanted to find some water for you to drink, and by the way, I would like to see if there are any wild fruits to pick, and give you a little nutrition, you are now an injured person, and you can't do it without nutrition." ”
This old guy was obviously pretending to sleep just now, the purpose was to test whether he would leave him alone, Yang Ning was afraid for a while, if he really took advantage of the situation, he was afraid that his little life would have been rewarded.
Although Mu Lao was injured, with his efforts just now, it was still easy to take his own life.
"So you're thinking about the old man?" Mu Laohei smiled and said: "You kid is very filial, the old man thought that you were going to leave the old man alone and run away at night." ”
Yang Ning smiled: "I can meet your old man in such a remote place, that's fate, you are injured now, if I leave you, it will be too unrighteous." Sir, you're thinking too badly. ”
Mu Lao smiled: "It seems that your kid is still very righteous? The arm was raised slightly, and another thing hit the crook of Yang Ning's leg, Yang Ning felt that the stiffness on his leg disappeared immediately, and his right leg, which was originally unable to move, was able to move again, Mu Lao had already said: "Come here!" ”
Yang Ning couldn't wait to pick up a stone and smash this old thing to pieces at this time, but he still smiled and said: "Mu Lao, your kung fu is really amazing, and the younger generation admires it so much." When he arrived in front of Mu Lao, he squatted down and asked, "What do Mu Lao command?" ”
Mu Lao stared at Yang Ning with a pair of eyes, Yang Ning was originally an extremely bold person, but being stared at by these eyes, he was very uncomfortable all over his body, and his back was even a little cold.
"The old man saw that you kid was so righteous, so he told you the truth, the old man was injured by the five poisonous needles of those guys before, and now he is poisoned." Mu Lao said slowly: "However, this amount of toxicity does not pose any threat to the old man, and the old man will not be able to eliminate the poison in his body in no three days." ”
It turned out that the old guy had been poisoned, no wonder the blood he spit out had that fishy smell.
"Why didn't I poison you?" Yang Ning cursed in his heart, this old guy really didn't change color when he opened his mouth, even if the poison was no threat to him, it would take three days to remove the toxin, which was obviously inconsistent, and only this kind of cheekiness could be said openly.
It's just that the old guy claims to detox in three days, so is it possible for him to wait here for three days? If you delay in this mountain for three days and then try to catch up with the dart team, it will be impossible at all.
Yang Ning was anxious, but his face did not change.
"You're right, the old man can meet you, it's really fate." Mu Lao raised his hand and patted Yang Ning on the shoulder, revealing a strange smile, "You are righteous, so the old man will trouble you for the past few days, help the old man guard the door and watch the wind, and help the old man find water and food, once the three days pass, the old man will naturally take you out of the mountain." ”
Yang Ning's heart sank, but his face showed a slight embarrassment, and said: "Old Mu, don't say a few days, it's a few years, and the younger generations are willing to follow you to learn more." But I have something to do, and I am afraid that I will not be able to listen to your teachings, so tomorrow I will get you water and food, and prepare enough for three or five days, and then I will go to my companions. You leave me an address, and when I miss you, I'll go see you, what do you say? ”
Mu Lao immediately let out a strange laugh, and Yang Ning, who was laughing, had straight hairs on his body.
He withdrew his hand from Yang Ning's shoulder, but a pair of eyes looked at his right hand like a work of art, and asked slowly, "By the way, what's your name?" ”
"I'm a vagabond, and people call me the White Rabbit." Yang Ning said seriously.
Mu Lao still looked at his hand and said, "Little White Rabbit, do you know the name of my hand?" ”
Yang Ning was a little annoyed in his heart, secretly wondering if you are teasing me, Lao Tzu has never heard of a hand with a name, and couldn't help but say, "Could it be called the fifth girl?" ”
"What?" Mu Lao didn't hear clearly for a while.
Yang Ning reluctantly smiled: "The juniors don't know, and I still ask Mu Lao for advice." ”
Mu Lao said lightly: "Many people call this hand a dead wood hand. ”
"Deadwood hands?"
"When the wooden hand passes, everything withers." Mu Lao said slowly: "Just like the old man patted you on the shoulder just now, you have several tendons and veins that have been injured, from now on, those meridians will slowly shrink, and in a few days, they will completely wither, little white rabbit, do you know what will happen to people after the meridians wither?" ”
Yang Ning's face had changed greatly at this time, he never imagined that Mu Lao would pat him lightly on the shoulder a few times, and he would have already attacked himself, and he couldn't wait to rush forward to strangle this old thing, and said with a wry smile: "Mu Lao, what are you doing?" Is there anything offended about the younger generation? ”
"The meridians are withered, if they are ordinary meridians, they are just paralyzed, but the meridians touched by the old man are the eight strange meridians in your body, and once they are withered, they will ......!" He smiled, but Mu Lao didn't continue.
The Eight Veins of the Qi Sutra, as soon as he heard the name, Yang Ning sighed and said, "Mu Lao, you ..... You are a grace and will take revenge. Although he said this, he still had some doubts in his heart, and secretly thought that just a light pat twice would really hurt my meridians, this old guy has a habit of alarmist bragging, and if he doesn't do it, he is playing tricks.
"Don't worry, I'm just letting you know that the old man's deadwood hands are extremely powerful." Mu Lao coughed a few times before continuing: "The old man sees that you have outstanding qualifications, and after he is ready to recover from his injury, he will accept you as an apprentice, teach you world-class martial arts, and train you into a first-class master, as long as you practice top martial arts, there is nothing in this world that you can't get, little white rabbit, are you willing?" ”
Martial arts?
Yang Ning really wanted to squirt a mouthful of spit on this old liar's face, if you really have world-class martial arts, how could you be hit by the people of the Five Poison Palace with a hidden weapon?
"This ...... Naturally, yes. Yang Ning could only say: "But my meridian ......!" ”
"Don't worry, the old man will massage it for you once a day for the past three days, and after three days, you will be safe and sound." Mu Lao said: "But if there are other accidents in the past three days, or if you get lost in the mountains and can't see the old man, then it's no wonder the old man." As soon as the words fell, Mu Lao's body suddenly shook, his whole body trembled, and he raised his hand and said, "You..... You go to the entrance of the cave and guard the ......! ”
Yang Ning already knew at this time that the poison in Mu Lao's body was attacking one after another, and Mu Lao seemed to be safe and sound just now, but he didn't attack, and it was obviously a toxic attack at this time.
He knew that if he was not completely sure, he must not act lightly, otherwise not only would he not be able to kill this old liar, but he was only afraid that he would have to give his life away.
Mu Lao was already sitting cross-legged at this time, his palms facing up, facing each other between the two palms, and lying horizontally on his chest, Yang Ning returned to the entrance of the cave, leaning on the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, and scolded in his heart from the eighteen generations before Mu Lao, and until the eighteen generations later.
Maybe it was because of the continuous running around in the past few days, coupled with the tossing and turning for the night, he was really exhausted, leaning against the stone wall, Yang Ning actually fell asleep in a daze.
In her sleep, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl stood among the flowers, smiling at herself, pretty and beautiful, more delicate than flowers, her eyes flickering, as beautiful as the stars in the night sky.
