Chapter Eighty-Six: Snake Island's Mental Method
Early the next morning, Wan was busy dealing with the official affairs of the Four Kings Valley, and Gu Shengchao went to visit Fan Lixin alone.
Fan Lixin's breath was still weak, but it stabilized, he vaguely reacted under Gu Shengchao's soft call, his lips opened and turned as if he was talking, but unfortunately his voice was too weak and no one could hear it clearly.
According to what he thought last night, the five swords in the dantian where Gu Shengchao's mind went were all around Fan Lixin, and he slowly urged the five soul arrays, the five soul arrays in the dantian in the body and the five souls arrays composed of the sword arrays outside the body were integrated, and Fan Lixin's whole body in the formation was moisturized in the dense true qi, and the whole person was immersed in the purest formation, and every pore on his body was fully nourished.
In the formation, Fan Lixin's pale face began to have blood and slowly ruddy, he turned his face and saw Gu Shengchao, shocked and noticed something strange, because he wanted to move his body to pull the wound caused severe pain, he finally knew Gu Shengchao's intentions, stretched out his thumb to him to express his gratitude and approval, and lay down to heal his injuries.
Half an hour later, Gu Shengchao withdrew the Five Souls Array, and he pondered it for the first time, and he didn't know if it was effective if it was effective.
"Thank you, Brother Shengchao, why am I here?" Fan Lixin turned his head and asked, he spoke with confidence, and his gratitude was overflowing.
Gu Shengchao said with a smile: "I still want to ask Brother Fan, I didn't stay in the capital, I ran to this wilderness, and I was captured by the Martial King Palace, and I was seriously injured and almost died." ”
Recovering his memory, Fan Lixin was a little uneasy and said, "What's wrong with Mi Gang, the envoy of the Martial King Palace, did he run away?" If he escapes back to the capital, he is afraid that he will have a sword and a sword here, and even his brother and brother will have trouble sleeping! ”
Gu Shengchao said with relief: "It's okay, Mi Gang and his gang have been wiped out, and not a single one of them has escaped, so don't worry, big brother." ”
Fan Lixin was relieved and told the reason why he came here.
The prince is the emperor, the year name is Tongyang, he is a proton in the Xileng country all the year round, and his foundation in the Dawu Dynasty is shallow, and he naturally has fewer henchmen. Outside, there is the palace of King Wu, and the three provinces and six departments in the imperial court are fighting each other, and no one is obeying anyone, and it is difficult to issue government decrees.
Especially in the Wuwang Palace, half of the good land in the Dawu Dynasty is owned by the Wuwang Palace, and the imperial court pays taxes less than one sect, which is really rare. As we all know, the farmland actually registered in the Wuwang Palace only accounts for 20% of the Dawu Dynasty, of which the majority is forcible and concealed and not reported.
The emperor ordered the household department to count the real land of the Wuwang Palace, the first household department Shangshu died unexpectedly, and the second one resigned directly after a few days and went home, and the household department Shangshu actually became a hot potato and no one dared to do it.
Fan Lixin thought of his junior brother Cui Zhu who was idle at home, and wanted to invite him to go out of the mountain to serve the emperor together. When Fan Lixin saw his junior brother and was warmly welcomed by Cui Zhu's family, when he was drunk and drunk, Fan Lixin was tied up by Cui Zhu, and the flying pigeon passed a letter to inform the Wuwang Palace.
After the western envoy Mi Gang arrived, he threatened and lured Fan Lixin, and when he saw that he was unmoved, he became angry and angry, and tortured him all day long, almost torturing him to death.
Wuwang Hall and his party waited for Fan Lixin to pass by here and found a good coffin, originally just passing by, who would have thought that Mi Gang and others would rely on the prestige of Wuwang Hall to cause trouble everywhere, but lost their lives.
Fan Lixin saw that there were only two of them in the house, and said in a low voice: "Brother Shengchao has not heard from him since he left the capital, and the emperor can't find a reward for you, where are we now?" ”
"In the Valley of the Four Kings." Gu Shengchao didn't hide it.
Fan Lixin was shocked: "The coffin of the Valley of the Four Kings is famous all over the world, and the brother didn't leave the worry-free dart game and went here again?" ”
Gu Shengchao nodded and acquiesced, "Brother fate, I married the woman here, and everything was kept." ”
"Okay, okay." Fan Lixin praised repeatedly.
The two were chatting, Wan Ruo walked in in a heroic manner, and Gu Shengchao introduced them to them: "This is the big brother Fan I often mention, and this is my lady, named Wan Ruo." ”
Fan Lixin couldn't get up, looked at Wan Ruo and praised: "My sister is naturally beautiful, no wonder that on the night in the capital, the Shengchao brothers gave up the emperor's reward, and they also had to desperately look for their sister everywhere." ”
Everyone killed the eunuch Wen Zhe in Luoxian Lake, Ding Ying followed his master Fang Xingdan away, Liu Ximei left alone in order to fulfill them, Gu Shengchao looked for Liu Ximei everywhere in the capital that night and met Fan Lixin.
It's also strange that Gu Shengchao didn't make it clear, Fan Lixin must have confused Liu Ximei and Wan Ruo.
"This, Brother Fan misunderstood, my lady was not in the capital that night, and the one I was looking for at the time was not here." Gu Shengchao had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down.
Fan Lixin was also embarrassed, and arched his hand: "It's my brother's clumsy eyes, and I blame me for having no beads, which makes you laugh." ”
Wan Ruo was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Brother Fan doesn't have to mind, I know everything about them, and if I have the opportunity to bring them over, I can't be stingy as a sister." Besides, I came to the capital that night, and I didn't leave behind your every move on Luoxian Lake. ”
"Really, you've never told it?" Gu Shengchao didn't believe it.
"Of course it's true, you didn't ask me!" Wan Ruo looked at him with a smile.
Gu Shengchao was dumbfounded, he was always talking about his past, and he never listened carefully to Wan Ruo's past. He settled down and let people take care of Fan Lixin carefully, and then left hand in hand with Wan Ruo.
That night, Gu Shengchao carefully studied the "Detailed Explanation of the Formula" under the lamp, and when he saw that Wan wanted to rest, he asked: "You said that we fought with the eunuch Wen Zhe in Luoxian Lake in the capital, you can see it clearly, but is it true?" ”
took off his coat and sat beside Gu Shengchao, Wan Ruo leaned on his body and said: "When did you hear me tell a lie, how can we people in the rivers and lakes miss the grand event in the capital, there are officers and soldiers guarding that night, I can only watch the battle from afar, and I can't get close." It's a pity that I only stared at Brother Lu Chuan at that time and didn't notice you, and I only remember some fragments about you. ”
The corners of Gu Shengchao's mouth twitched, and when Wan Ruo found out, she snorted coldly and turned her face and said, "Why, I was angry when I didn't pay too much attention to you, it turned out that I was also a cautious eye." ”
"Alas, I'm taking pity on myself, being tortured by the future lady on the way to the Valley of the Four Kings, and I can't have a little temper." Gu Shengchao pouted deliberately.
"Okay, it's me who is wrong, I shouldn't snub you on the road." Wan Ruo took the initiative to hug him and send him a fragrant kiss to show condolences, like a snake coiled around him.
Gu Shengchao was entangled, and he no longer had the intention of reading, and begged for mercy: "Grandma, I'm afraid of you, just let me read for a while!" ”
"I don't, I've already apologized, you have to show something." Wan Ruo stretched out his fingers and scratched the ancient saint super itching.
Gu Shengchao said repeatedly: "I also apologize, I shouldn't doubt you, it's time to do it." ”
"No, it's not sincere enough." Wan Ruo waved his hand and turned off the lights.
"Help!" Gu Shengchao begged, but was still dragged to the bed by Wan Ruo......
In the next few days, Gu Shengchao used the Five Soul Array to heal Fan Lixin's injuries every day, with this good method, Fan Lixin's injuries recovered quickly, and he was able to get out of bed and walk in more than ten days, and there was no major problem.
During this period, the valley lord Qiu Xiao came once, and Gu Shengchao took the initiative to leave and let them talk freely.
On this day, Qiu Xiao invited Gu Shengchao to travel together, and the two traveled for two days to Snake Island next to Chijin Mountain.
From a distance, the smoke screen over Snake Island was foggy, and it was only recently that Gu Shengchao noticed that the entire Snake Island was burned into ruins, the dense woods and grass were reduced to nothing, and the ashes covered every rock on the island. Snakes and insects like shade and fear fire, so they naturally have fled to other places, and it is impossible to survive on an island where there is no grass.
Qiu Xiao dismounted and jumped to the island, and Gu Shengchao followed, puzzled: "Valley Lord, what's going on?" Who burned this place like this? ”
"It's me, I ordered this place to be destroyed." Qiu Xiao's tone was full of helplessness, and he seemed to be reluctant. He stared at everything on the island and said sadly, "Perhaps, this is the last time I'll be here." ”
Gu Shengchao heard the meaning of Qiu Xiao's words, and asked tentatively, "Did the valley master come often before?" ”
Thoughtfully, Qiu Xiao said softly: "It's been many years, I wasn't the valley master at that time, and Lu Chuan was still a teenager, and we stayed on the island for nearly two months, and now I think about it as if it was just yesterday." ”
"What, Gu Lord and Senior Lu already knew about this?" Gu Shengchao was surprised, he thought that only Lu Chuan knew about it, and it turned out that Qiu Xiao was also involved early.
Qiu Xiao nodded and said, "That's true, Lu Chuan is thoughtful, without his help, I can't figure it out more clearly." Unlike you who are terrifying, you only need to make a few simple kites to see through the secrets of Snake Island. ”
I don't know if Qiu Xiao is praising him or being sarcastic, Gu Shengchao scratched his head and said, "It's us who is abrupt and makes everyone know about it." ”
Patting Gu Shengchao on the shoulder, Qiu Xiao said kindly: "The secret of Snake Island will be exposed one day, and the more you want to hide a fact, it is actually not far from the truth." Do you know what the requirements are to become the valley lord of the Valley of the Four Kings? ”
"Could it be related to Snake Island?" From Qiu Xiao's eyes, Gu Shengchao already faintly felt that there was an inevitable connection here.
Sure enough, Qiu Xiao glanced ahead: "The Nine Heavens Biluo Palm's heart method and mantra come from here, so whoever among the young talents of each generation can comprehend the uniqueness of this place first may become the next valley master." Lu Chuan has a higher understanding than me, and he was originally the best candidate for the valley master, but unfortunately he took the initiative to give up everything here and gave it to me. Lu Chuan's friendship will be remembered for the rest of my life. ”
Stunned, Gu Shengchao knew that there were such twists and turns, and he said with annoyance: "It's the subordinates who are ignorant and have exposed the secrets here prematurely, which has affected the inheritance of the Valley of the Four Kings." ”
Qiu Xiaolang laughed loudly: "It's none of your business, don't blame yourself, without you Gu Shengchao, as well as Liu Shengchao and Ma Shengchao, there will always be someone who will break the tranquility here." I'm guarding this place with trepidation, and I still hope that someone can stand out and break the routine and surpass those of us who have come before. ”
He pointed to the cave in the distance and said, "Look there, without your discovery, who would have known that everything on this snake island was related to the Phoenix Dance Sword Technique!" At first, we only thought that it was a clue deliberately left by a certain master outside the world to cultivate here, but we didn't expect to leave more clues than we imagined. ”
Waving his hand to continue walking, Qiu Xiao said enthusiastically: "Let's go, I will teach you all the heart methods and mantras of the Nine Heavens Biluo." ”
"Does the valley master teach me?" To the surprise of the ancient saint, Qiu Xiao actually wanted to teach him the most important exercises of the Valley of the Four Kings.
The Nine Heavens Blue Falling Palm is the mastery of the Valley of the Four Kings, only the valley master is qualified to master the true heart method and mantra, Qiu Xiao wants to teach the most important things to Gu Shengchao, so that he will be flattered.
