Chapter 81: Healing
Shi Ziling hurriedly came to the city guard's mansion, Su Bairen saw Shi Ziling coming, and hurriedly pulled him outside a room in the backyard, and said: "Nangong Xia is inside at the moment, his injuries seem to be very serious, I have sent the best doctor to treat him, now it is difficult to say whether there is help." Ziling, your true yuan is profound, can you help me see his internal injuries?"
Shi Ziling nodded and entered the house, only to see Nangong Xia's round body lying flat on the bed, with a lot of blood stains on his body.
A doctor stepped forward and said, "The head of the Nangong family was shot in the thigh and buttocks by a crossbow arrow, and we have pulled out the arrow for him, and there is a serious sword wound under the rib that has bled a lot, and now it has basically stopped." It's just that there is a deep palm print on his chest, which is estimated to have been hit by a master with a strong True Yuan. ”
"Now that the pulse of the head of the Nangong family is getting weaker and weaker, it seems that all the internal organs have been violently shaken, and it is obvious that the internal injuries are extremely serious. The true cultivation of several of our doctors is not enough, so we dare not rush to push the palace for him. ”
Shi Ziling nodded after listening, and stepped forward to hold Nangong Xia's wrist vein, although he didn't know the way of medicine, but he knew the meridian operation and qi and blood flow in the human body well, and in a moment he had already detected the blockage of Nangong Xia's meridians.
At this time, Nangong Xia's true yuan was no longer able to circulate, and if the meridians were allowed to be blocked, he would soon be weakened to death. The only way to save him is for Shi Ziling to spend True Yuan to open up the blocked meridians for him.
Although Shi Ziling and Nangong Xia did not have a deep friendship, considering that Songhu City had just formed an alliance with the Nangong family, his life and death would have a great impact on the future situation in Songhu City and even the east, so he immediately decided to save him first.
Shi Ziling asked several doctors to help Nangong Xia's body to sit up, and he sat cross-legged behind Nangong Xia, and put his palm against his vest acupoint.
Shi Ziling Xuangong was silent, and slowly forced his true yuan into the meridians of Nangong Xia. Nangong Xia's own true yuan is profound, and it is not under Shiziling, but it is difficult to circulate after being seriously injured, at this moment, under the urging of Shiziling's powerful true yuan, the true yuan in Nangong Xia's body was stimulated, and slowly began to condense and circulate.
In the process of healing, Shi Ziling found that Nangong Xia's True Yuan operation method was very different from his own path, and there were many subtleties beyond his imagination.
While dredging the blocked meridians for Nangong Xia, Shi Ziling silently observed Nangong Xia's own true yuan circulation method, and when he saw a diagram of the operation of a living true yuan, he couldn't help but admire in his heart, Nangong Xia was ranked eighth on the top 100 list, and he really had extraordinary attainments in Zhenyuan cultivation.
Due to the very slow circulation of the true yuan after Nangong Xia was seriously injured, it just gave Shi Ziling a chance to learn, and when there were meridians blocked by blood that could not be passed, Nangong Xia's true yuan would stagnate, and at this time, Shi Ziling would use his own powerful true yuan to take Nangong Xia's true yuan to break through the blockage.
After the true yuan of the two of them successfully passed through the blocked meridians, Shi Ziling would gradually weaken his true yuan power and slowly circulate with Nangong Xia's own true yuan.
After such a few weeks of circulation, the meridians in Nangong Xia's body were gradually dredged, and Shi Ziling also had the most intuitive understanding of Nangong Xia's true yuan operation method, which was equivalent to learning a new set of "true yuan operation method".
When he competed with Ye Zhenzhen a few days ago, Ye Zhenzhen's "Sword of True Yuan" left a deep impression on Shi Ziling, making him understand that there was such a wonderful method of using True Yuan in the original world. Although he relied on his deep True Yuan foundation to barely block the "True Yuan Sword" at that time, he didn't really understand what kind of condensation and transformation it took to transform the True Yuan from intangible to tangible.
At this moment, because of the treatment of Nangong Xia's injuries, he directly learned Nangong Xia's true yuan operation method, which greatly inspired Shi Ziling, and thought that if he could combine Nangong Xia's method with the "true yuan operation method" that he originally obtained from the Sanqing Sect, he might be able to find a magic way to condense the invisible true yuan into a tangible big killing weapon.
Finally, after spitting out a large mouthful of blood, Nangong Xia slowly woke up, although he was still very weak, his true yuan was already able to circulate in the meridians normally.
When Shi Ziling withdrew his hands pressed on the big hole of Nangong Xia's vest, he was already soaked and exhausted. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, although this healing cost him a lot of True Yuan, but it also unexpectedly let him learn Nangong Xia's method of running True Yuan, and he still felt very relieved to think about it.
Nangong Xia opened his eyes, glanced at the situation around him, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "It turned out that you kid saved me, and finally the old man, I shouldn't die, hehe." ”
Su Bairen was overjoyed when he saw Nangong Xia wake up, and hurriedly asked, "Nangong Family Master, what do you think?"
Nangong Xia said: "Thank you Lord Su for your concern, I don't think I can die." ”
Shi Ziling said: "I have opened all the blockages in your meridians, and I don't think I have to worry about my life." Although your external injuries are serious, they are not fatal, and although your internal organs are somewhat damaged, with your true foundation, after some recuperation, it should be fine. ”
Everyone helped Nangong Xia to lie down, and the doctor said with relief after checking his pulse again: "General Shi really rejuvenated, the blocked meridians of the Nangong family master have all been unblocked, and the blood has been vomited, although the pulse is still weak, as long as it is well recuperated, it is estimated that it will be cured in a month or two." ”
Nangong Xia said to Shi Ziling: "Brother Shi, don't thank you for your kindness, in the future, you can get the place of our Nangong family, just open your mouth." ”
Shi Ziling smiled: "Senior, you are polite, we are all allies now, and it is also our duty to save you." By the way, what assassin is so powerful that he actually injured you like this?"
Nangong Xia thought for a moment and said, "There are eleven people in total, and eight of them are crossbow archers. The chain crossbows in their hands were very powerful, they could fire multiple arrows in succession, and the arrows were powerful, all of them were fired at me alone, and by the time I realized it, a net of arrows had formed. Alas, the old man, I may have been too fat, and I didn't have a blade with me, so I was caught off guard, and as soon as I came up, I was hit by two arrows. ”
"The next to kill are the two long swordsmen, who are also very strong, and at first glance they are the masters of Iga-ryu. I was furious and hit hard, but Iga-ryu's killer was very fierce, and he almost hurt me with a desperate blow before he died, cough cough cough cough ......"
"Although I dodged the desperate blow that they all died, I was stabbed by another masked swordsman hiding in the shadows......"
"Alas, old man, I haven't done anything with anyone for many years, I didn't expect to encounter such a powerful assassin group, cough cough cough ......"
Nangong Xia coughed a few times in pain and then said, "After this masked assassin stabbed me with a sword, he thought that I was powerless to fight back, and wanted to kill me quickly, but he was slapped by my counterattack. It's a pity that I was slow to move after the injury, and he also slapped me on the chest, so we can be considered a lose-loser......"
"I endured the pain and returned to the castle guard mansion the same way, but I also encountered another man in black on the way to intercept him, although this person's strength was not as strong as the masked swordsman just now, but it was also very strong. ”
"Hmm...... His martial arts path is very similar to that of the previous Three Puritans, and I don't know if it is the same as those killers in front of him. I fought and retreated, and thanks to the desperate protection of several of my men, I was able to retreat to the city guard's mansion, and finally picked up an old life. ”
Su Bairen said: "Nangong family master, rest assured, I have sent people to search the whole city under martial law, and I must arrest these assassins to avenge you." ”
Nangong Xia said: "This group of assassins has a tacit understanding, except for those crossbow archers, the other few people are masters in the rivers and lakes, especially the strength of the masked assassin who was hit by my palm is quite good, and his swordsmanship and the strength of the true yuan power are all temporary choices." ”
"In my estimation, even if I hadn't been injured, it would have been a long time since I had won against him. Fortunately, he was also slapped by me, and the injuries were only worse than mine, and I don't think he would have escaped far. ”
The more Shi Ziling listened, the more surprised he became, according to Nangong Xia's description, this group of assassins was almost the same as the group of people who ambushed him last time, except that they did not use the "Shadowless Rainstorm Needle", it was almost a repetition of the last time they attacked him.
But last time, all the people were killed by themselves, except for the white-bearded old Taoist priest Kong Mingzi, why did another batch come so quickly, could it be that this group of people was also sent by Chen Gongzhao? What did Chen Gongzhao want to kill Nangong Xia for?
Nangong Xia saw that Shi Ziling was silent and asked, "Brother Shi, have you thought of something?"
Shi Ziling said: "To tell you the truth, I was also ambushed a few days ago, and the group of people who dealt with me were very similar to your description, so I think it's a little strange. ”
Su Bairen said: "By the way, I heard Chen Gongzhao talk about your plot, saying that the people from the 'Jiangdong Thirteen Villages' have a grudge against you and came to you to take revenge." Fortunately, you killed them all, and you weren't hurt, so I didn't pay much attention to them. Why do you say that this group of people is the same group of people who ambushed the head of the Nangong family?"
Nangong Xia frowned and said: "Jiangdong Thirteen Villages? impossible, I have heard of the 'Jiangdong Thirteen Villages', they are just some thieves, except for their leader Shen Tugang, there are no decent masters, it will definitely not be them." ”
"The group of people who attacked me must be well-trained killers, and among them are kendo masters from Higashi-sakishima Iga-ryu. I've been to Higashirishima and I can't be mistaken. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, such a powerful killer is likely to be a subordinate of the famous 'Dark Path', and the masked swordsman is so strong that it is likely to be the so-called 'Dark Messenger'. ”
Su Bairen said angrily: "No matter who they are, they dare to assassinate the Nangong family master in Songhu City so boldly, they simply don't take us seriously. Nangong family master, rest well, we will definitely capture the assassin back......"
