twenty-two

She looked at me for a moment and said to me: "In my later years, I learned a set of exercises for rejuvenation, but I have to use the internal strength accumulated in the past as the price, because I don't have to fight with others after becoming the lord, and there are often people around me to support me, so I feel that it is useless to keep the internal strength, and from time to time I transform some into the true element of repair, which is used to restore youth." After every transformation, I have to re-cultivate, this time in order to reunite with the master, I have turned away from the entire forty years of cultivation, although I have also practiced diligently in the past two months, and now I only have fifty years of strength in my body, and there are still four days left to break through the entrance and restore the original strength. I'm no match for that guy at the moment, so I'm going to pull you as a helper. ”

I continued to nod.

Yuan Yunqi continued: "That person was originally a talented martial arts practitioner, but her feet had suffered severe frostbite, and it was not easy to keep it, so she was destined to not be able to practice kung fu, which also limited her from becoming a generation of masters. It is also her strong nature, open-mindedness, dare to think and do, and even came up with a set of unrestricted practice methods from the puppeteer, that is, to control the brain with silver needles, bind the limbs of the human body with silk threads, inject her own internal force, and turn the living into puppets to help them fight. ”

When I heard this, I was stunned and incredulous.

Yuan Yunqi said: "She trained a four-person group called 'Crazy', and they practiced separately under her guidance on weekdays, and when they wanted to use force with others, they were topped by these four people, in fact, they trained for a long time, whether they were their own cultivation or cooperation in battle, they could be regarded as seamless, only when they met an opponent with real profound internal strength or strong moves, she would make the move of 'puppet binding', and these four people were also willing to be used by her, and they didn't need her to use the silver needle at all." However, she told me earlier this year that she had discovered that the silver needle piercing the brain could not only facilitate the control of the puppet, but also if a charm was added, it could also stimulate the puppet's maximum physical potential in an instant, and move forward bravely without fear of pain, completely reduced to a fighting machine. Oh! I forgot to tell you, I, a proud disciple, have found a different way on the basis of the little Taoism I have only taught, and I am better than my teacher. Ashamed! Ashamed! ”

I laughed in my heart: "I'm afraid that the Dao you learned from your master is just a little bit!" ”

Yuan Yunqi coughed deliberately, and said with a straight face: "So far, I don't know if she has invented the spell that can stimulate her potential, and whether she has put it into practice." There will definitely be a fierce battle with her for a while, and you two will have to help me survive at least two rounds, the first round of your free battle with 'Madness', the second round of her 'puppet bondage' control battle, and the third round...... I hope there is no third round, if there is, it should be a spell, you also try your best to help me entangle the four evils, I will do my best to compete with her internal strength, so that she has to free up one hand to fight with me, and the remaining hand to control the puppet will inevitably be greatly reduced, not to mention that she also wants to control the spell, no matter which side of the omission is our opportunity. ”

Although I was very convinced by this combat strategy, I also felt more and more that the opponent was unfathomable and overwhelming, and I couldn't help but wonder if it was worth working so hard for someone who had nothing to do with me. Turning his head to look at Zhu Xieyu beside him, he was eager to rush to the front of the two of us, it seems that this person is not confessing again, obviously worried about Situ Jin's safety, and he has to pretend to be so indifferent in front of him, and he has become more and more interested in the grievances and hatred between the two.

Halfway up the mountainside, you can vaguely see the melting lights of the Futu Inn, and the spring is full of water. Yuan Yunqi stopped on a cliff and said to the two of me: "It's still too late to regret at this moment, you two can go around the fork in the road on the other side, go uphill gently, and go back to your vault to wash and sleep." ”

Zhu Xieyu ignored it and went straight up the rock.

I gazed at her, saying, "Not for him, but for you." ”

Yuan Yunqi laughed and said: "Alas-it's a pity that the luck is not good, if the old body met you earlier, how good it would be to accept you as a closed disciple, you have talent, heart, conduct, and courage." ”

I shook my head at her and gestured in the palm of her hand, "It's okay, let's make a year-old acquaintance." ”

Yuan Yunqi is also a very emotional person, and his eyes flickered faintly: "Okay - listen, I will teach you eight mantras now, which is the operation method of my 'Xuandao Scarlet Sword', and remember first, there is just a very clever fight, give you a reference and confirmation, and afterwards your martial arts cultivation will definitely go to the next level, not to mention anything else, it will definitely be no problem to surpass that white-faced boy, and I am not afraid that he will bully you with his high martial arts in the future." ”

She didn't wait for me to shake her head and refuse, so she recited the eight mantras by herself, and quickly explained them, I have always remembered them very well, not to mention that although these eight mantras have profound meanings, the words are simple and easy to understand, and after her explanation, I not only remember, but also have some movement in my heart.

To the top of the mountain, see a bright moon hanging high, as if stopping on the top of the mountain, live in this mountain for a long time, today to know what the name of this mountain is.

The mountains and rocks are all white, the moonlight is scattered, the silver glow is everywhere, and the white expanse seems to have left the world.

On top of a raised cliff, there is an old pine, verdant and very strong and straight, and there is a branch that slopes out and is in the air. I looked at it, there was a person hanging naked below, a sturdy and slender physique only wrapped a bath towel around the waist to cover his shame, but he didn't care about the uninhibited and uninhibited people who were outside the degree, and he was scolding and scolding in his mouth, not who Situ Jin was.

There was a tall and thin purple-robed woman sitting on a stone pier beside him, meditating and recuperating, her skin was pale and her eyes were blue, her cheekbones were high, and her lips were a little purple, and she didn't know if her original lip color or lip grease was used inappropriately, giving this moonlight a dozen, like a female zombie who had just crawled out of the cemetery.

"Why does it look familiar? Where have you seen it? "I tried to scavenge through the various portraits stored in my mind, and I was sure that I had seen them, but I was not impressed by them.

That's right, Xu Yinghua.

Also a tenant of the Futu Inn, checked out two months ago.

It happened to be when Ah Qi was about to move in.

It turned out that she had already made up Yuan Yunqi's idea two months ago.

However, in my impression, Xu Yinghua is a plump and amiable young woman, no more than thirty years old, but now in front of her, although her facial features are still vaguely recognizable, and her skin is smooth and flat, the corners of her drooping eyes and mouth are clearly the hesitation of a dying old man, and this gray long hair that drags the ground, no matter how you look at it, she is not young.

Could it be that in just two months, this Xu Yinghua has aged by twenty years?

"How did you become like this?"

Xu Yinghua opened her eyes and looked at me, as if she remembered me, and said, "Why did you come?" For things that have nothing to do with you, it is better not to interfere. ”

Yuan Yunqi raised her eyebrows and asked me, "Do you know her?" ”

I shook my head: "I don't know each other, it's just that after all, I live on the same floor and have met twice, but I still remember when you asked to stay in the Futu Inn two months ago, I said that there was no room when it was full, and then Luo Xin said that Xu Yinghua of Youlan Xiang had checked out." ”

Yuan Yunqi smiled: "I see, Xu Yinghua? Hua Yinxu, I mean, it sounded a little wrong at the time, it turns out that you have been secretly taking care of everything since I came out of the valley. ”

Hua Yinxu said: "Actually, it's not everything, I originally thought that what kind of dream you had to find the master to reincarnate or something was just a remorse and obsession when you were young, but it was just an excuse to come out and play for a while, but you spent forty years of energy in order to pretend to be tender, if I don't come out to protect you secretly, what if you are killed?" How can I have no owner? ”
