Seeing that Duan Yu had been rescued, Duan Yanqing, Zhong Wanqiu and others who were against the enemy had also left, and the Duan family didn't stay any longer.

Everyone returned to Dali City, first to the Zhennan Palace, only to see the three princes of Dali, Hua Hegen, Fan Hua, and Ba Tianshi greeted them from the mansion. Fan Hua reported to Emperor Baoding that Hua Hegen dug a tunnel and took Zhong Ling into the tunnel, and then stole the beams and pillars to send him to the stone house.

But then he saw Duan Yu's expression gloomy, and then he remembered the deep-rooted love between the two, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little low. The three dukes of Dali were puzzled, and Gao Shengtai, who was good at explaining, explained the relationship between Zhong Ling and Duan Yu to the three of them, and the three of them couldn't help but be annoyed when they heard this.

When Zhong Ling went home with Duan Yu the previous time, the three of them did not come to Zhennan Wangfu because they were busy with government affairs, so they didn't know the relationship between Zhong Ling and Duan Yu, so after capturing Zhong Ling, in order to take revenge on Zhong Wanqiu, they implemented the plan of stealing beams and replacing pillars. didn't expect that this would certainly make Zhong Wanqiu lose face, but it would also pit Zhong Ling, a possible future prince and concubine.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Duan Zhengchun hurriedly persuaded him, after all, the three dukes of Dali were not to blame, and besides, they spent a lot of effort to save his son and save Duan's reputation, and this alone was a great achievement. Not to mention that Zhong Ling is not necessarily Duan Yu's future wife, even if she is Duan Yu's wife, the prince and concubine of Dali, she can't make a country's important minister like the Third Duke of Dali chill because of her.

With the deliberate easing of the Duan family, the originally somewhat dull atmosphere quickly recovered. Duan Yu still has the medicinal properties of "Yin and Yang and Hesan" remaining in his body. However, although the medicinal properties of "Yin and Yang and Hesan" were violent, they were not poisonous, so he gave Duan Yu some laxatives and drank a few large bowls of cold water, and it was dissolved.

At noon, the palace held a banquet, and everyone happily talked about the matter of the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations at the banquet, and they all said that the battle was the greatest credit to the Huangmei monk and Hua Hegen, if it were not for Hua Hegen's mastery of digging tunnels, this time not only Duan's reputation would be ruined, but the Duan family would also be humiliated. And if it weren't for the Huangmei monk competing with Duan Yanqing in front of the house, it involved his mental strength. Then Hua Hegong and others dug tunnels, and they didn't want to hide it from Duan Yanqing.

Dao Baifeng suddenly said: "Brother Hua." I'd like to ask you to do it again. ”

Hua Hegen said: "I don't know what the princess commands, Weichen must obey the order." ”

Dao Baifeng glared at Duan Zhengchun and said, "I have to ask you to send someone to block that tunnel." That tunnel can lead to Mrs. Zhong's apartment, if it is not blocked. I'm afraid we have a benevolent brother here. From now on, I'm going to drill tunnels every night. ”

Everyone knows that Dao Baifeng is satirizing Duan Zhengchun's amorous nature. may use the tunnel to have an affair with Gan Baobao, and he can't help but laugh secretly.

At this moment, a family will come in to give a report. said that Henan Wulin heroes came to see Guo Yan before. Duan Zhengming and others don't know who this Guo Yanzhi is, Duan Zhengchun introduced the origin of this Guo Yanzhi to everyone because he walked the rivers and lakes more diligently. This Guo Yanzhi is the hundred-year-old disciple of Ke, the head of the Henan Funiu faction, nicknamed the "Soul Chasing Whip", it is said that the martial arts are quite successful, but he has no contact with the Duan family, and he doesn't know what happened to him all the way.

However, the Duan family originated from the Central Plains martial arts, although he later became the emperor in Dali, but he did not forget his roots, and treated his fellow martial artists with courtesy, so although he didn't know why he came, he still invited him in.

When Guo Yanzhi was invited in to take a look, he saw Yan Yi in mourning clothes, his face was full of dust, and his eyes were red and swollen, showing that there was a funeral at home and a dead relative. After seeing the ceremony, he inquired, but he heard that it turned out to be the head of the Barberry faction, Ke Baisui, who was victimized, and he came this time to ask his uncle Cui Baiquan, who was sheltered in the palace of Zhennan Wangfu, to go back to the funeral and avenge the master.

Only then did the Duan family know that Mr. Huo, the accountant in the house who had been awake and not drunk, turned out to be Cui Baiquan, the master of the barberry faction "Golden Abacus". After Cui Baiquan confessed the crime of deception to Duan Zhengchun, he asked his nephew about the cause of his brother's death, only to know that his senior brother actually died under his best move, the barberry faction's trick "Heavenly Spirit Thousand Splits", which suddenly made people suspect that Gusu Murong, who was known as "returning the other way to the other" in the martial arts.

At this time, it happened that the two monks of Shaolin Temple, Hui Zhenhuiguan, came to write a book, and when they were introduced, they learned that the two monks also came to report the funeral.

After careful questioning, I learned the reason, it turned out that Shaolin Temple learned that the four wicked people were going to come to Dali and Dali Duan to make it difficult, so the master of the special temple, the senior monk Xuanbei led four disciples to Dali to warn and help. Unexpectedly, before they arrived in Dali City, when they were boarding in the Luliang Prefecture Body Ring Temple in Dali Kingdom, Xuan Bei was plotted and died under his own special skill "Great Wei Tuo Pestle"!

In one day, two groups of people came to report the funeral, and the deceased all died under their own famous skills, and the suspicions all pointed to the Gusu Murong clan, who was famous all over the world for "returning the way of the other", Rao is a member of the Duan clan and a temple and a river, and the city is deep, and he can't help but be moved.

After all, Gusu Murong is not an ordinary family, the Central Plains martial arts in recent years known as "North Qiao Feng, South Murong" said, which means that the Central Plains martial arts are the most outstanding figures, the northern martial arts first recommended the beggar gang leader Qiao Feng, and the southern martial arts will be headed by Gusu Murong. Don't look at Dali Duan's Tiannan as the king, dominating one side, and he is also famous in the martial arts, but if he only looks at the name in the martial arts, he is inferior to the Gusu Murong clan.

Then the Huangmei monk was touched and moved, and also told the past story of suffering a loss and almost killing in the hands of the Gusu Murong family, which made everyone more and more jealous of the Gusu Murong family, and began to speculate about who in the Gusu Murong family did it, whether it was the previous generation of family head Murong Bo, or the new generation of Murong family master, and why he killed Xuan Bei and Ke Baisui.

Only Ling Muyun, who was a traverser, knew in his heart that Xuan Bei and Ke Baisui were actually dead at the hands of Murong Bo, who faked his death and concealed his life. Xuan Bei was because when he was ordered to go to mourn Murong Bo, he found clues that Murong Bo faked his death, and Murong Bo would kill him. And Ke Baisui is purely because of his family's wealth. was regarded as a fat sheep to raise military funds by Murong Bo, who was bent on planning to raise troops to restore the country, so he died in the hands of Murong Bo.

However, these are extremely secret things, although Ling Muyun knows it, he can't say it, otherwise he can't explain how he knows, so he just pretends not to know anything, and listens to the random speculation of the audience.

Everyone speculated for a while, and Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi decided to go to Gusu to find the Murong family to take revenge. Duan Zhengchun was sent by the imperial brother to Luliangzhou Body Ring Temple to help deal with the aftermath of Master Xuanbei, and by the way, he sacrificed to Master Xuanbei on behalf of the Duan family. After all, Master Xuanbei was sent by Shaolin Temple to warn and help their Duan family, and he died under the rule of their Dali, which is reasonable. None of them can afford to sit idly by.

It's just that considering that it's not early today. In Baoding Emperor Duan Zhengming's stay, everyone was not busy setting off, and decided to rest in Zhennan Wangfu for another night, and waited until the next day when it was not too late to leave at dawn.

After lunch. Ling Muyun returned to the room. He began to refine and absorb the powerful innate true qi absorbed from Duan Yanqing and the Huangmei monk in his body.

After integrating the Northern Spiritual Skill into the Outer Heaven Divine Skill. Ling Muyun's efficiency in refining true qi has been greatly improved, if the internal force absorbed does not exceed his own internal force too much, he will be able to refine and absorb it at that time. This time, the amount of internal force absorbed from Duan Yanqing and Huangmei Monk not only exceeded his own internal force by several times. Moreover, they are all innate true qi, and the level is also one layer higher than Ling Muyun's own internal force, so it cannot be refined and absorbed immediately.

Even so, after spending half a day's effort, Ling Muyun still refined and absorbed all the innate true qi in his body.

And after absorbing these true qi cleanly, his internal cultivation has also been greatly improved, although he failed to meet the best expectations before and broke into the innate realm in one fell swoop, but he has also been promoted to the peak level of the acquired realm of great success, and he is only half a step away from the innate realm.

And because he has incorporated a large amount of innate true qi, although Ling Muyun's internal cultivation is still at the acquired level, the true qi in his body already contains the attributes of innate true qi, which can be regarded as semi-congenital, coupled with his miraculous skills, he is not inferior to a real innate master. Ling Muyun was confident that if he was allowed to fight Duan Yanqing again, he might not be able to win!

After the completion of the exercise, it was already evening, and the brothers Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun arranged a banquet to entertain the original Shaolin monks and Guo Yanzhi, and Ling Muyun was also invited to the banquet. It's just that the Shaolin monks, Cui Baiquan, Guo Yanzhi and others are all people close to them who have just died, where do they have the heart to eat a banquet? They all simply ate a bite, so the atmosphere of the banquet was not high, and it ended hastily.

After the banquet was over, Ling Muyun took advantage of the moonlight to come to the palace garden to stroll and enjoy. Suddenly, I saw a figure slip out of the room and walk towards the outside of the house, and his behavior was quite sneaky. His heart moved, and he hurriedly set off to follow quietly, and only when he got closer did he see that this person turned out to be Duan Zhengchun, the king of Zhennan.

Ling Muyun couldn't help but be a little strange, it was said that this palace was Duan Zhengchun's own mansion, he was out of his own house, could he use it like a thief to be so sneaky? And he will go to Luliangzhou Body Ring Temple with the two Shaolin monks tomorrow to treat the funeral of Xuan Bei, and he is not at home to accompany his wife and son at night, what are you going to do when you go out of the house?

But after thinking about it, Ling Muyun suddenly remembered that in the original history, Duan Zhengchun secretly ran out of the palace the night before leaving, ran to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and went to have a tryst with Zhong Wanqiu's wife Gan Baobao with the help of the tunnel dug by Hua Hegen and others, no wonder he would be so sneaky, if this was seen by Dao Baifeng, who was extremely jealous and resentful, he would not have to make a fuss?

After figuring out that Duan Zhengchun was going to have a tryst and cheating, Ling Muyun lost interest in tracking, and immediately stopped, just about to turn around and go back to his room, at this moment, Ling Muyun suddenly felt something strange in the corner of his eyes, turned his head to look, and saw a figure flashing above the ridge on the side, and someone sneaked into the house.

Seeing that there were no palace guards patrolling nearby, and no one found that someone had sneaked into the mansion, Ling Muyun's figure moved, and he immediately flew up to the house, and landed not far behind the figure. Because Ling Muyun did it lightly, he didn't make a sound when he landed on the roof tiles, so the person who sneaked into the mansion didn't notice it, and he was still lying behind the roof ridge, pouting his ass and probing his brain to check the situation.

Ling Muyun couldn't help but be happy when he saw the back of the person who came, because this person was dressed in a yellow shirt, had a big bald head, and was carrying a bulging long cloth bag on his back, who else would there be if it wasn't his apprentice who had just received the South China Sea Crocodile God? It seems that after the previous lesson, the South China Sea crocodile god has also become a little smarter. is no longer as arrogant and open-minded as before, and he knows how to keep a low profile.

Ling Muyun didn't know that the South China Sea Crocodile God had this change or because of him. It was precisely because the South China Sea Crocodile God came to break into the South China Prince's Mansion before, suffered a big loss in his hands, and was even forced to worship him as a teacher, the South China Sea Crocodile God kept the lesson in mind, and this time he sneaked in, wanting to do it quietly, for fear of alarming Ling Muyun and the Duan family's masters again.

Who thinks that the luck of the South China Sea crocodile god is really bad enough, obviously he has been careful and careful. But he was still bumped into by Ling Muyun, who came out for a stroll.

Ling Muyun's body moved. Quietly floated behind the South China Sea Crocodile God, and reached out and put it on the shoulder of the South China Sea Crocodile God.

The surprise of the South China Sea Crocodile God was not trivial, and he was so frightened that his cold hair stood up, and he struck out with a backhand palm. Just this palm out. But it missed. Immediately afterwards, I felt a tightness in my wrist. The veins were buckled, and then his neck was cold, and the hand that was originally on his shoulder had touched his neck. The South China Sea Crocodile God suddenly secretly screamed in his heart: "My life is over!" ”

"Yue Laosan, what's the matter, do you still want to kill the teacher?"

At this moment, a chuckle sounded in the ears of the South China Sea Crocodile God, hearing this familiar voice, the already desperate South China Sea Crocodile God suddenly saw a ray of light in the dark night without stars and moons, and immediately stopped struggling, and begged for mercy in a low voice: "Master...... Master, I ...... I didn't know it was you, you ...... Don't be angry, don't be impulsive. ”

"I'm impulsive, you think I'm a fool with you." Ling Muyun snorted angrily, looked around at no one, and immediately mentioned the South China Sea Crocodile God and said, "Go, follow me to the outside of the mansion, I have something to ask you." ”

The South China Sea Crocodile God didn't dare to resist at all, so he obediently followed Ling Muyun through the ridge of the house and flew away silently outside the palace.

Not to mention that his key point was in Ling Muyun's hands, just the identity of the other party, the South China Sea Crocodile God didn't dare to do it. Although the crocodile god of the South China Sea is vicious, he has an advantage, that is, his words count. Since he had already kowtowed to Ling Muyun to apprentice, whether he was willing or not, but this thing was not fake, let him kill the teacher, he really couldn't do it.

Not to mention that Ling Muyun's martial arts are much higher than him, that is, in the original history, he worshiped under Duan Yu, whose martial arts were much worse than him, although he was full of reluctance, he never thought of killing his master, and even died under the iron rod of his boss Duan Yanqing in order to save him, a cheap master.

Ling Muyun carried the South China Sea Crocodile God all the way out of the Zhennan Palace, came to a secluded alley outside the palace, threw the South China Sea Crocodile God into the ground, and asked, "Say, what are you doing in the palace again?" I asked you to save Little Auntie, did you rescue you? ”

The South China Sea crocodile god said: "During the day, I caught up with Yun Lao Si and had a big fight with him, and he was beating his farts and urine, and the little aunt's Lao Tzu also rushed over, and took the opportunity to save the little aunt." Later, I had a fight with my little aunt's Lao Tzu, but he refused to fight after a while, and my little aunt had already left by herself. ”

It turned out that during the day, the South China Sea Crocodile God was ordered by Ling Muyun to chase the crane in the clouds, although the crane in the clouds was much higher than the South China Sea Crocodile God, but after all, it suffered internal injuries, and its strength declined, especially not lasting, at the beginning, it failed to completely throw off the South China Sea Crocodile God, and then his strength was weak, so he was caught up by the South China Sea Crocodile God and fought.

The crane in the clouds' martial arts is not as good as the South China Sea Crocodile God, and if he was injured, he was naturally not the opponent of the South China Sea Crocodile God, and he was forced to be extremely embarrassed by the South China Sea Crocodile God. At this time, Zhong Wanqiu, who was then chasing, arrived and rescued his daughter, Zhong Ling took the opportunity to escape back to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, but the South China Sea Crocodile God and Zhong Wanqiu fought again without saying a word.

Later, Zhong Wanqiu didn't want to entangle with the crocodile god of the South China Sea anymore, so he stopped and left, returning to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations. The South China Sea Crocodile God was moved by the crane in the clouds again, and he wanted to go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations to kill Zhong Wanqiu, a guy who had shit luck and was two generations higher than him.

It's just that he was worried about Duan Yu, the apprentice of a martial arts wizard, so he was ready to come to the Zhennan Wangfu to arrest Duan Yu first, force him to worship under the boy's door, and then go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations to kill Zhong Wanqiu. Unexpectedly, he had just sneaked into the palace, and before he could find Duan Yu, he was bumped into by Ling Muyun first.

Looking at the bitter face of the South China Sea Crocodile God, Ling Muyun's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of concern, this South China Sea Crocodile God is actually quite good in character, how to say it to others, but not to say anything to others, but to respect his own master, there is a small matter, but a good candidate for errands, if you can accept his heart, it is still good.

At the turn of his mind, Ling Muyun said to the South China Sea Crocodile God: "Yue Laosan, look at your face, it's almost shrunk together, what's the matter, being my apprentice is still wronged by you?" What do you not want to do, do you still think that I am not worthy of being your master? ”

"No, it's ...... It's that your age is inevitably too young, so people can see it, and I can't help but laugh at my South China Sea crocodile god for not being promising, worshipping you like this...... Such a little white face is the master. ”

Ling Muyun's face sank, ", 'There is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher.'" Don't you understand this simple truth? Let me tell you, don't think that I am young, and what I have learned is as vast as smoke, if it wasn't for the whim of the bet contract at that time, I wouldn't have accepted it if you were such a fool, even if you kowtowed to me a thousand eight hundred rings. (To be continued......)
