Silence, pitch black...

There was no sound, no light, and he didn't even feel his own body, only a wisp of consciousness wandering aimlessly.

There were no five fingers around, there was no edge, Lin Xiuyuan only felt that he had been wandering away in this dark place for a long time, so long that he almost forgot the time.

Finally, for a moment, he saw a faint light on his way, and he rushed desperately towards that glimmer of light, and then crashed into a white expanse of light.

"Your Highness..."

A very familiar voice suddenly appeared, the sound seemed to come from a far border, but it seemed to be just in front of it, far and near, with the direction of the sound, the white light finally began to gradually become clear.

"Your Highness... Your Highness. ”

Under the soft shouts of voices, Lin Xiuyuan finally opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was the pool of clear water, staring at him with a hint of sorrow at the moment.

"Sister Jin'er?"

Lin Xiuyuan finally saw the appearance of the person in front of him clearly, and subconsciously whispered, Jin'er saw that His Royal Highness had finally woken up, and a smile immediately bloomed on his face, like a lotus blooming.

"Your Highness is awake, Your Highness is awake."

Jin'er shouted happily, and the door was immediately opened from the outside, and the young Taoist priest Xu Yuanyou and the old housekeeper in Taoist robes walked into the room one after another.

Xu Yuanyou came to the bed, looked Lin Xiuyuan up and down for a moment, then stretched out a finger and pointed at the center of his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and a cool and gentle power of true yuan, like a stream flowing into a river, trickled into Lin Xiuyuan's limbs and hundreds of remains.

After a while, this true yuan was taken back, Xu Yuanyou opened his eyes, and said with a smile:

"Fortunately, fortunately, the flow of qi in the body has returned to normal, and it is finally fine."

Lin Xiuyuan was slightly stunned, and some scattered memories in his brain finally began to gradually recover.

Aren't you fighting with the people of the Demon Sect? How can you be in your own bedroom? What happened?

His consciousness stayed at the moment when the knife was finally struck, and then he fell into a deep coma.

"What's going on in Kyoto? What's going on now? ”

Lin Xiuyuan asked his own question, Xu Yuanyou smiled, and then briefly explained to him everything that happened later.

When Lin Xiuyuan heard that the people of the Demon Sect were killed in one fell swoop, and he actually won the battle of life and death, even he was surprised, and when he looked at Xu Yuanyou's eyes, he was even more puzzled.

Xu Yuanyou motioned to Jin'er and the old housekeeper to prepare some food, the two understood that they had something to say, so they left with interest, and when the two left, Xu Yuanyou immediately cast a barrier to block the house, and then said:

"It's not that you won, to be precise, it should be some of the backhands left by your master on you that helped you win the other party."

Lin Xiuyuan was even more stunned, and then under Xu Yuanyou's explanation, he realized that at the moment when he was about to die, he touched his master's hidden back hand on him, and that phantom appeared.

He subconsciously touched his chest, which was where the fate word was, and it turned out that there was still a means of protection left for me by the master.

At the thought of this, a trace of warmth crossed his heart, but then it became a little silent, this may be the last chance he could see his master, but he was unconscious at that moment.

After Lin Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, he let go of the thoughts in his heart, and then asked:

"In other words, the reason why Chen Wushuang chose me as his backhand is because he has long known that my master will be the backhand, and his real backhand is not me from the beginning, but my master, right?"

Xu Yuanyou did not hide it, nodded and said:

"Actually, he didn't know it early on, but with his understanding of your master, so... Take a gamble. ”

Lin Xiuyuan suddenly sneered:

"Gambling with my life?"

Xu Yuanyou was silent, in this matter, he and Chen Wushuang were not a united front, but they could understand the other party's approach, so it was not easy for him to say anything.

But after a moment of hesitation, he said:

"Actually, he knows that I am right there for you, and even if he makes a mistake at the last moment, he knows very well that I will save you. It's just that in that case, he will lose this chess game in Kyoto. ”

Lin Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, then continued:

"In Chen Wushuang's eyes, all living beings are just chess pieces, whether it is Liu Chuandong of the Imperial Tomb, or me, or even the people and subjects of Kyoto, it is the same."

Xu Yuanyou's eyes were complicated, and he said softly:

"What he is trying to do is too big, so it is destined to be impossible to take care of it all."

Lin Xiuyuan didn't talk about this question, but asked:

"How long have I been unconscious?"

Xu Yuanyou said lightly:

"About seven or eight days?"

Lin Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, and when he raised his eyes, he had been in a coma for so long?

Xu Yuanyou didn't have a good airway:

"How do you think you survived? Do you know how much effort I wasted in order to save you, and I used no less than seventeen or eighteen kinds of Taoist elixirs alone to be regarded as hanging your life, plus Chen Wushuang used the Confucian technique of gathering heaven and earth qi to forcibly absorb the aura of heaven and earth to help you recover, and finally barely saved your almost broken body. You can wake up in seven or eight days, you should be happy! ”

Lin Xiuyuan was slightly distracted, he knew how heavy his previous injuries were, and he also knew that in that situation, if he wanted to save him, how much price would he have to pay, he hesitated slightly, and said to Xu Yuanyou:

"Thanks!"

Xu Yuanyou waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, forget it, who made me your protector, if I really let you burp like this, wouldn't I be too much of a failure."

Lin Xiuyuan didn't say much, but at this moment, he had completely regarded Xu Yuanyou as a real friend, since he was a friend, it was meaningless to talk too much.

Xu Yuanyou suddenly said with some seriousness:

"But there are some things that I still need to tell you ahead, although we help you to maintain the physical foundation by forcibly fusing them, but it is the same as repairing and regluing the broken ceramics, on the surface there is no problem to see, but it is still broken fundamentally."

"Therefore, it is only a symptom but not a cure, and if you want to completely restore the previous return to the other side, I am afraid that you still need to find a way to re-forge and condense the cracked physique and eliminate the hidden danger, otherwise, it will be a great hidden danger to your future martial arts cultivation path, and even become a heavenly moat."

Lin Xiuyuan nodded solemnly, signaling that he understood, Xu Yuanyou suddenly smiled and said:

"Now that you have woken up, Poor Dao doesn't have to wait for you outside the door all day long, and you have to deal with the next troubles yourself."

Lin Xiuyuan was a little puzzled, he didn't understand what Xu Yuanyou was referring to, Xu Yuanyou smiled evilly and said:

"There is one thing, maybe you don't know it yet, when you fought with the mysterious throne that day, he showed it to all the subjects of Kyoto with the number of Confucian Tianyan, including the young emperor, so the last part where your mask fell off and Jin'er brought the forbidden army to protect you was also made public, that is to say, your identity that has been hidden has been exposed, these days, the Zhennan Royal Mansion is not lively, many princes and ministers have come here to watch, even the young emperor, His Majesty, has come twice in person, It's just to see if you wake up. ”

Xu Yuanyu said this, and suddenly said with interest:

"Now that you're awake, this matter naturally can't be hidden, so you'd better ask for more blessings."

Lin Xiuyuan opened his mouth, the reason why he didn't want to reveal his identity was that he was most afraid of this trouble, and now he still couldn't keep it, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Xu Yuanyou continued to say:

"I think the condolences of those princes and ministers, or princes and nobles, are not a big deal, after all, you are an immortal on the mountain, and you are the prince of Zhennan, even if you really don't want to deal with them, no one dares to say a word, but there are two people, you estimate that you can't escape."

When he said this, he suddenly looked at him a little strangely and said:

"Do you know who has come to see you the most in these seven days?"

Lin Xiuyuan frowned, and subconsciously shook his head, in Kyoto City, he doesn't have any good friends, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be anyone who cares too much, could it be that someone wants to use this to tie up the forces of Zhennan Wangfu?

Xu Yuanyou said leisurely:

"There are two people, and they come together every time, they are your cousin, Princess Changyang, and the talented girl of the Meng family, Meng Yiyao. It's just that I think the purpose of these two people should be different, Meng Yiyao just wants to see your physical condition, as for Princess Changyang, I always feel that she is more suspicious of asking for guilt. ”

Xu Yuanlobby said this, and couldn't help but be curious:

"When did you offend this eldest princess of Kyushu?"

Lin Xiuyuan didn't have a good airway:

"I don't have time to offend her, besides, she's my cousin, and I don't have a reason to offend her."

Xu Yuanyou waved his hand and said helplessly:

"Then I wonder why she always has a strange sense of resentment."

Lin Xiuyuan didn't speak, but he thought about it somewhat, and estimated that it was because of his previous concealment of his identity that this cousin complained a little, but it was not a big deal, so he naturally didn't take it to heart.

It's just that the thought of having to deal with those so-called powerful people hurts his brain, and he asks him to practice and practice, even if it is to fight and fight, but these mundane social exchanges, he is the most unwilling.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiuyuan not only began to think about whether he could be in a coma for a few more days, anyway, the injury this time was not clear, and it was not impossible.

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately made up his mind, ignored Xu Yuanyou, and hurriedly went out to find Jin'er, and asked her to go down with his request.
