Chapter 54, Set up a trap
Dongfang Saitama opened his eyes, looked at the roof, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he wanted to sit up, but a piercing pain made him fall on the bed again.
Looking at the pull in the room, Dongfang Saitama opened his mouth and called, "Is there anyone?"
As soon as the voice fell, Ji Fengtian and a few people walked in, Dongfang Yue took a bowl of medicine, sat in front of the bed and fed Dongfang Saitama.
"How do you feel?" said Zhuge Qingming.
Dongfang Saiyu didn't speak, rolled his eyes, and shifted his gaze to Ji Fengtian.
Ji Fengtian looked at Dongfang Saiyu and said, "I think it's best for you to quickly absorb the power of the elements, there will always be a big breakthrough between life and death." ”
Dongfang Saiyu endured the pain and sat up, trying to run the basic technique, and instantly a feeling of hunger and thirst came from the veins, and Zhuge Qingming felt that the speed of absorbing the power of the elements in the meridians had been greatly improved compared to before. Without opening his eyes to see everyone, Dongfang Saiyu liked this cultivation speed, and even became obsessed with it.
Everyone saw that there was nothing wrong with Dongfang Saitama's spirit, and they left the room.
Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming and said, "Qingming, I think you also have to refine your body." ”
When Zhuge Qingming heard Ji Fengtian say this, he instantly remembered Ji Fengtian's soaked liquid before, his body trembled, and he hurriedly said, "No, I have elemental power." ”
Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming's expression, and knew what he remembered, shook his head and smiled, and said, "I let you practice the alchemy technique for your own good." ”
Zhuge Qingming looked at Ji Fengtian puzzled, waiting for Ji Fengtian's words.
"The human body is like a container, after you absorb the power of the elements into the human body, it will run along the pipes of the container, if the pipes are too thin, the capacity of the container will be small, and this pipe is the meridians. Just imagine, when you fight the enemy, if you are wider than the enemy's meridians, you can release energy beyond your personal realm, and even fight beyond the level. Similarly, if your body is damaged by someone, the liquid inside will not circulate smoothly, and even the true element will leak. ”
"Can you still absorb the power of the elements now?" asked Zhuge Qingming.
"Yes, I can absorb the elements at several times faster than yours now, you can sense it carefully. After speaking, Ji Fengtian sat down cross-legged, running the basic magic technique, absorbing the elemental energy in the air.
Zhuge Qingming closed his eyes and felt the flow of elemental power around Ji Fengtian's body, and after a while, Zhuge Qingming's face was full of surprise.
Ji Fengtian stopped running the exercises, slowly stood up, looked at Zhuge Qingming and said, "Do you feel it?"
"I feel it, but I can't stop practicing your exercises. Zhuge Qingming said weakly.
"Yes, in fact, you don't need to cultivate all of them, but I suggest that you practice some exercises that can exercise the meridians, so that whether you use the power of the elements to condense the protective shield or perform some defensive martial arts, you can improve your ability to sign up. ”
Hearing Ji Fengtian say that there was no need to practice the "King Kong Jue", a big stone in Zhuge Qingming's heart fell to the ground, but Ji Fengtian's next words made Zhuge Qingming's face turn green.
"But which green potion brocade robe you need to use, that will be more effective. Ji Fengtian said.
"Big brother, you are my own brother, is there any other choice" Zhuge Qingming pleaded.
"No, you go to the library of the academy to find out, can you find an alchemy technique that specializes in cultivating meridians, after all, this thing will not be used by ordinary people. Ji Fengtian said.
"Okay, I'll take a look. Zhuge Qingming sat on the stool next to him like a frosted eggplant.
Just when the room became silent, a surprised voice came from inside the room: "Hahahaha, I break through, I am now the seventh layer of martial arts, hahahaha." ”
Dongfang Saitama ran out of the room like crazy, looked at Ji Fengtian and said excitedly.
"What's there to be happy about, don't you have to be at the bottom. Zhuge Qingming stimulated Dongfang Saiyu and said.
"At least I'm getting closer to you. Dongfang Saitama said indifferently.
Seeing Dongfang Saiyu's indifferent expression, Zhuge Qingming was also very speechless, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he looked at Ji Fengtian and asked, "Does Saitama still want to practice the alchemy of the meridians?"
"Yes!" Ji Fengtian answered Zhuge Qingming's question without thinking about it.
"What kind of alchemy technique to cultivate the meridians. Dongfang Saiyu was also a little confused by the second monk at this time.
"Ahem, I'll tell you about it. Zhuge Qingming suddenly looked at Dongfang Saiyu with a serious face, put his hands behind his back, and said with the look of an old master's lecture: "The human body is like a furnace, no, no, it is a container, the meridians are like pipes in the human body, the thickness of the pipe determines the amount of water, and the amount of water determines the strength of your attack and defense." So you have to practice alchemy, or do you want to specialize in strengthening the meridians. ”
Dongfang Saiyu turned his gaze to Ji Fengtian, who nodded slowly and did not speak.
"Okay, I'll cultivate!" Dongfang Saitama said without hesitation.
"Agreed so quickly, don't you resist it?" Zhuge Qingming was speechless for a moment.
"Why resist? Anyway, Feng Tian won't harm us. Dongfang Saitama said.
"You!" Zhuge Qingming suddenly became angry, and then pulled Dongfang Saiyu to a wooden barrel filled with dark green liquid and said, "You try this dark green liquid." ”
Dongfang Saiyu looked at Zhuge Qingming in surprise and said, "Cut, this water is not poison, what are you afraid of." ”
After saying that, Dongfang Saitama rolled up her sleeves. Under Zhuge Qingming's gloating gaze, he plunged his finger into the water and dipped it in a drop, and suddenly the feeling of pain came. Dongfang Saitama's face instantly turned white, the sweat of the bean was flowing down his forehead, and his mouth kept roaring.
Dongfang Yue saw her brother's situation and wanted to step forward to pull it, but was stopped by Ji Fengtian.
"Do you want to continue?" asked Ji Fengtian.
"Yes!" said Dongfang Saitama, gritting his teeth.
"Count you ruthless!" Zhuge Qingming said helplessly.
"I remember that there is a book in the treasure trove that can exercise the meridians, and it is a high-grade one. Dongfang Saitama thought for a while and said.
"High-grade people?" said Zhuge Qingming in surprise.
"Yes, but no one has touched that thing so far. Dongfang Saitama said.
"That's it, at the moment we can find the best one, which is the high-end one. Will you go get it now or tomorrow?" asked Ji Fengtian.
"Now, I'm going to stay here for a few days, you need food and lodging. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Okay, as long as you can get used to it, you can live here. Ji Fengtian said.
Dongfang Saiyu looked at Dongfang Yue and said: "Little sister, you just stay with your mother, after all, it is easy to be gossiped about with us, and if you are by your mother's side, I don't have to worry about my mother." ”
Dongfang Yuebei bit her lip lightly, thought for a while before nodding slowly, and the two hurriedly returned to the palace.
Ji Fengtian stripped naked and jumped into the wooden barrel, after a year of medicinal baths, Ji Fengtian was already immune to these pains, and with the improvement of cultivation, his body's endurance also became stronger.
Seeing Ji Fengtian's entire body soaked in dark green liquid, Zhuge Qingming trembled.
"I said you can be tough?" Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming angrily and said.
"It's a hard fart, if you don't get a small life, you have to hang up. Zhuge Qingming rolled his eyes and said.
"Grandpa Zhang, are these medicinal materials particularly precious?" Ji Fengtian asked.
"Precious? not precious, some of them are still weeds on the ground, if it weren't for the "King Kong Jue" record, I would have thought it was a lie. Zhang Fang said.
"Weeds?" Ji Fengtian said uncertainly.
"Yes, it's a mixture of several herbs that work, and other people know that there are these kinds of things, and if they are not mixed in proportion, they are useless at all. The most valuable ones are blood ginseng, golden lotus, heavenly black seed, black blue flower, and one of the rarest ice pith roots. But you haven't used up a copy of everything in a year. ”
"Well, these aren't cheap anymore, nearly a million taels. Ji Fengtian said.
"Otherwise, do you think "King Kong Jue" will have such a big effect?" Zhang Fang rolled his eyes angrily.
"Grandpa Zhang, let me tell you something, Xiao Mingzi, you go out first and wait. Ji Fengtian said.
"Cut, you actually keep it a secret from me, is it possible that you want to harm me, little genius?" Zhuge Qingming looked at Ji Fengtian and had no intention of leaving.
"Not leaving?" Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming, holding the green liquid in his hand, ready to splash it towards Zhuge Qingming.
"I'll go!" Seeing Ji Fengtian's movements, Zhuge Qingming escaped like a gust of wind.
Closing the door of the room, Zhang sat down on the stool in front of Ji Fengtian's wooden barrel and asked, "Do you want me to put the remaining five medicinal liquids in their medicine barrel?"
"Yes, but don't do that much, just a little bit and let them absorb some slowly. Ji Fengtian said.
"Okay, I promise not to let the two boys see it, but your trick is quite bad. Zhang Fang said.
"I'm doing this for their good~" Seeing Zhang Fangwei's disrespectful smile, Ji Fengtian was speechless.
An hour later, Dongfang Saitama came to Zhang Fang's courtyard and handed Zhang Fang the booklet in his hand.
""Hundred Veins Forging Body"!" Zhang Fang read a sentence, and then opened the booklet and read it carefully, although he did not touch the body refining exercises, but after Zhang Fang saw this body refining exercises, he still felt that the auxiliary drugs in it were too rubbish, and compared with Ji Fengtian's, it was simply different from the mud.
Handing the booklet to Dongfang Saitama, Zhang Fang decided to use Ji Fengtian's forging liquid to strengthen the meridians according to what he had discussed with Ji Fengtian.
"You first run this law decision today, get ready to cultivate, officially start the medicinal bath tomorrow night, fight with Brother Bai Yu's men during the day, and when the elemental power is exhausted, hurry up and meditate and cultivate, we don't have much time. Ji Fengtian said.
Zhuge Qingming wrote down the content recorded in the "Hundred Veins Forging Body" in his mind with a bitter face, and sat down to carefully sense the changes in the meridians in his body.
The time of the night passed quickly, and during the day, the three of them were fighting with the demon beasts in the martial arts arena, and sometimes all the demon beasts and soldiers joined in, and everyone had a scuffle, and whoever felt physically exhausted went to the side to rest and meditate.
At the beginning, Zhuge Qingming and Dongfang Saiyu were still a little uncomfortable, but after being attacked by demon beasts or soldiers a few times, the two of them also began to adapt to this cultivation method.
This is also thanks to the unusually high walls around the Ji family's martial arts arena, otherwise, the surrounding streets would be full of dust. But the sound caused by the fight is still very curious, especially Liu Xiang's father and son.
"Father, what happened in the Ji Mansion?" asked Liu Daoxing, sitting below.
"Hmph! The information of the Ji family is so tightly blocked, so far not a single spy can enter, and it is estimated that even the royal family does not know what they are doing. Liu Xiang said with a frown.
"The royal family doesn't know either?" Liu Daoxing asked curiously.
"Yes, the Ji family will not allow the royal family to enter and search, and the royal family will not enter the Ji family to search for no reason. Liu Daoxing said.
"Father, we can find an excuse to rush in and have a look. Liu Daoxing said.
"What excuse?" asked Liu Xiang, looking at his son.
"We can find someone to enter the Ji Mansion to check under the pretext of searching for the murderer. Liu Daoxing said.
"None of my men have the right to search for them, and searching the General's Mansion is not an ordinary excuse. Liu Xiang said.
"We can send someone to sneak attack His Royal Highness, and then let His Royal Highness enter the Ji family with the Praetorian Guards to search, so that we will know?" Liu Daoxing said.
Hearing Liu Daoxing's voice, Liu Xiang's eyes lit up, and then he thought of which prince he needed to find.
"Father, we can let my cousin pretend to be assassinated, and the person who assassinated my cousin will be out of our way, find a martial artist who cultivates as an innate martial artist, and after missing a blow, flee in the direction of the Ji family, change his outfit along the way, and blend into his cousin's team, taking advantage of Ji Lingyun and the others being attracted to the front, and enter the Ji family from behind. Liu Daoxing said.
"Yes, if the Dongfang family knew that the Ji family had done some shady things, or knew that they were training in secret, what would the royal family think at that time?
"We can even tell our cousin about this and let him complain in front of His Majesty, and if my cousin inherits the throne, our plan will be better implemented. Liu Daoxing said.
"Hahahaha, okay! If this matter is done, my father will definitely reward you well!" Liu Xiang listened to Liu Daoxing's words, his heart was overjoyed, and he decided to arrange someone to do it.
"Father, don't worry, I'll wait until I've met my cousin and aunt. Liu Daoxing said.
"Okay, let's enter the palace now!" Liu Xiang said.
Then the father and son got into a carriage and galloped away in the direction of the palace.
"Concubine Niangniang, General Liu asks to see you. In the deep palace, the voice of a eunuch sounded in a side hall.
"What, why is he here now?" Hearing the eunuch's report, the woman called Niangniang got up in a panic, pushed away the naked man lying on top of her, grabbed the clothes that had fallen on the ground and quickly put them on. Then he said to the eunuch, "Let him in." ”
"I've seen the concubine Niangniang!" Liu Xiang and Liu Daoxing entered the room and saw the concubine Niangniang, that is, Liu Daoxing's aunt Liu Yu'er was sitting in front of the dresser combing her hair, and the bed had been cleaned up, where was there still a man.
"Dao Xing hurry up, I haven't come to see my aunt for so long, do you want to be my aunt. Liu Yuer pulled Liu Daoxing to sit aside and said.
"Dao Xing misses my aunt very much, isn't this going to come and see you with my father? Liu Daoxing said with a smile.
"It's good to come, our Liu family, you are the only one in your generation, you are the hope of our Liu family, you have to redouble your efforts and strive to surpass your father as soon as possible." Liu Yuer said.
"Hehe, no need for later, I feel like I'm going to surpass me now. Liu Xiang said with a smile.
"Oh?" Liu Yu'er looked at Liu Xiang puzzled.
"Sister, I have something I want to discuss with you. Liu Daoxing glanced at the people around him and said.
"You all go down first!" Liu Yu'er motioned for the maid and eunuch to retreat.
When everyone was done, Liu Xiang said: "We now have a way to make Prince Qin the crown prince, and even if he can't, he will have a high chance of becoming a candidate for the crown prince." ”
"Oh?" Liu Guifei stood up, walked outside the door, looked at no one around, closed the door and asked, "How to do it?"
"Here's the way it is ... Then Liu Xiang told Liu Yuer what he had talked about with Liu Daoxing, and Liu Yuer felt that this matter was feasible after listening to it, so he agreed to Liu Daoxing and Liu Xiang's proposal.
"Then we'll go first. After the father and son received a clear answer, they happily left Liu Guifei's bedroom.
Seeing the back of Liu Xiang's father and son leaving, Liu Yuer said to the maid next to her: "Go and ask Prince Qin to come over." ”
After a while, the maid came over with a boy about ten years old. When the young man saw Liu Yu'er, he bowed and saluted, "I've seen my mother." ”
"Get up, and come and sit beside the concubine. Liu Yuer patted the stool next to her and said.
Dongfang Qin walked up to Liu Yu'er and sat down and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the concubine calling her sons over?"
Liu Yu'er didn't speak, but looked at her son, and asked for a long time, "Do you want to be the emperor?"
"Of course I think about it, Erchen is dreaming about it!" Dongfang Qin said without thinking.
"Now there's a chance, I need you to do something, and when it's done, I'll help you. Liu Yuer said.
"Mother, please speak. Dongfang Qin said eagerly.
Liu Yuer told him about the matter he discussed with Liu Xiang's father and son, and after Dongfang Qin heard what Liu Yu'er said, his eyes lit up, so he agreed to Liu Yuer's proposal.
"In order to make this scene more real, the mother concubine asked Uncle Jin to go with you. Liu Yuer said.
Then a man walked out from behind the screen, it was the man who was lying on Liu Yu'er when the eunuch came to report before.
