Chapter 25 The Heart of Defense

In the next few days, Yang Ji's time outside became irregular.

He sometimes stayed in the room all day, reading and practicing calligraphy alone to prepare for the scientific examination, or burying his head in the "White Snake Martial Arts" moves.

Then, at other times, he would go into the mountains from time to time to practice.

In this way, he avoided exposing his whereabouts to the greatest extent, so as not to be tracked and dealt with by the eldest lady.

Sou!

In the early morning, there was a foggy fog, and a small black shadow came out of Yang Ji's firewood room, and after quietly and quickly wandering around, it made a "sizzling" sound at Yang Ji's door.

"Xiao Ji, thank you for your hard work. ”

The door opened, Yang Ji quietly walked out of the firewood room, patted Xiao Ji's head, and then took it in with a cuff.

During the time that Yang Ji lived in seclusion, he was surrounded by shadows, and Yang Ji obviously felt that there were many people watching him. This caused great inconvenience to Yang Ji's practice.

"It's finally time to come out. Xiao Ji, you're still amazing. ”

Yang Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and then bowed his head and said. There was a sizzling sound of smugness in the sleeve.

The perception of the crown king snake is obviously much more sensitive than Yang Ji, and during this time, Yang Ji relied on it to stand guard outside the house. Only when Xiao Ji confirmed that there was no one watching outside, did Yang Ji dare to go out with peace of mind.

"Let's go!"

Yang Ji carried his bow and arrows and left the firewood room in a hurry.

Entering the deep mountains, Yang Ji did not go to the place he frequented, but changed places, his eyes were slightly closed, his legs were crossed, and his body was relaxed, and then he began to practice the "Divine Dragon Refining Pile Method".

Strands of tree essence gathered from all directions, constantly integrating into Yang Ji's body. Feeling this cool liliang again, Yang Ji let out a long sigh of relief, and then melted into the void of Gujing Bubo.

"It's been a long time, this comfortable feeling. ”

Yang Ji breathed a sigh of relief.

After this practice, Yang Ji felt that his strength had increased a lot, and he was a little closer to the ninth stage of breathing.

The ninth stage of breathing is as fast as a fox, which is Yang Ji's cultivation goal in the next stage.

In the competition field, Yang Ji just relied on his comprehension and mastery of the "White Snake Martial Arts", as well as the skills he learned from "Xiao Ji", and reached the speed of "fast as a fox" in disguise, and the actual running speed was not as fast as Yang Xu.

The nine stages of breathing are as fast as a fox, and "catching rabbits with bare hands" is just a gesture, and some powerful geniuses can even reach the point of catching up with a crazy galloping horse.

And all of this requires a pair of bones with strong keys.

Animals in nature that run faster than people, whether they are galloping horses, cheetahs, lions, or fierce beasts, can leap far away with a single pounce, and all of them have strong bones.

Yang Ji is still only at the point of absorbing the essence of trees and strengthening the lungs, and he is far from the point of absorbing the essence and nourishing the bones.

"It's a pity that I have too little time to practice. ”

Thinking that someone often monitored him during this time, Yang Ji couldn't help but sigh and frowned.

Although this situation had been expected for a long time, it still made Yang Ji can't help but feel irritable in his heart.

It's getting closer and closer to my sixteenth birthday.

This thing is like an invisible shackle firmly on himself.

If you follow this kind of cultivation progress, you don't know when you will be able to reach the ninth stage of breathing, let alone the "martial arts realm" that the eldest lady uses to blackmail herself.

"We have to find a way out of the current situation!"

Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.

Suddenly, Yang Ji remembered something.

"It won't be long before it's the Qingming Festival. Every year at this time, I have to go up the mountain to sweep the graves of my parents. Why don't I take the opportunity to leave the clan and practice alone in peace and prepare for the scientific examination!"

Qingming is a major event, the so-called "hundred virtues and filial piety first", especially in the big clans.

Even if the eldest lady was dissatisfied with Yang Ji, she couldn't find a reason to refuse Yang Ji's request. As long as he can practice with peace of mind for a few months, Yang Ji is absolutely confident that he will go to the next level.

"That's it!"

Yang Ji's thoughts were racing, and then his mind was settled.

"White Snake Swallows Letter......

Yang Ji's body scurried, and he threw himself out of the ground several feet, and his palm shook and broke a branch the thickness of an arm. Officially began to practice the moves behind the "White Snake Martial Arts".

......

It was already late when I came back from practice, and the night was dark. Yang Ji didn't alarm anyone, and quietly sneaked back to the room alone.

"A gentleman thinks about himself three times a day, and first writes down today's cultivation experience. ”

Yang Ji opened a piece of paper, took pen and ink, dipped it, thought about it for a while, and then walked on the paper, and began to record various experiences and experiences in today's practice.

Although Yang Ji confirmed his belief from the martial arts competition in the martial arts training field, he understood that he had chosen the right path. But the journey alone is destined to be bumpy, and there is no fluke to speak of.

Yang Ji can only use his diligence and wisdom to open his own path.

Rustling~

The firewood room gradually quieted down, and only the sound of Yang Ji writing silently remained.

I don't know the sun and moon in the book, and I don't know how long it took, Yang Ji finally raised his head.

"I'm so hungry. ”

Yang Ji felt hungry in his stomach, grunting, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

He hadn't eaten much, but he didn't realize it for a while because he was obsessed with martial arts. At this point, when I came back to my senses, my hunger suddenly intensified.

"Eat something. ”

Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.

There were a few small dishes on the table, all of which were prepared by Uncle Liang, covered with a clay bowl, and there was still heat.

Yang Ji took the rice, picked up the chopsticks, and prepared to eat quickly. But as soon as the chopsticks were stretched out, a mutation protruded.

Syllable!

There was a soft sound, and before Yang Ji could react, the chopsticks in his hand were knocked off.

"Xiao Ji?"

Yang Ji frowned, and was about to scold, when he suddenly remembered something and smiled:

"I forgot, you're hungry too. Let's eat together. ”

Yang Ji took the dishes, evened out some meat, and then pushed it in front of "Xiao Ji". The longer he lives with Xiao Ji, the more Yang Ji regards it as a relative by his side, and his diet is often similar to his own.

Syllable!

Yang Ji stretched out his chopsticks for the second time, but he was still slapped off by Xiao Ji.

It held its body high, ignoring the food that Yang Ji gave him, but wrapped the bowl around it with its body, sizzling as if to say something to Yang Ji.

"Xiao Ji, don't make trouble. ”

Yang Ji was stunned, and then shook his head:

"Let me finish my meal first, and then I'll play with you later, okay?"

"Phew!"

Xiao Ji straightened up, looked at Yang Ji with dark eyes, and shook his head resolutely and stubbornly.

Yang Ji was surprised, Xiao Ji rarely messed around like this. It's just that at this time, I was hungry, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I stretched out my chopsticks again.

Click!

The black shadow flashed, this time Liliang was bigger, not only the chopsticks were broken, but even Yang Ji's wrist was numb.

"Xiao Ji, what are you doing?!"

Yang Ji said unhappily, and was interrupted by Xiao Ji for no reason three times in a row, even if Yang Ji was patient, he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.

"Sizzle!"

Xiao Ji couldn't speak, just crossed over the table, holding his head high, and kept spitting out letters and shaking his head.

Yang Ji was about to get angry, his gaze swept over Xiao Ji's dark eyes, his heart moved, and he suddenly calmed down. In the eyes of "Xiao Ji", he suddenly saw a trace of anxiety.

This is not a fool's errand!

looked at the food on the table, and then glanced at the "Xiao Ji" in front of him, thinking of Xiao Ji's ordinary behavior, Yang Ji suddenly felt a trace of strangeness in his heart.

"Xiao Ji, do you mean to tell me that there is something wrong with these meals?

Yang Ji asked tentatively.

The next moment, in Yang Ji's shocked gaze, Xiao Ji spit out the letter and nodded slowly.

Sizzle!

Yang Ji gasped.

It's true!

Xiao Ji was really warning him that the food was poisonous!

At this moment, Yang Ji only felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, surging all over his body, looking at the "delicious" in front of him, his heart was numb, and he no longer had any desire.

How is this possible?

Yang Ji's meals have always been prepared by Liang Bo, and there has never been a problem for more than ten years. But Xiao Ji's reaction is in front of him, as the king of poisonous snakes that even fierce beasts are afraid of, "Xiao Ji's" sense of toxicity is absolutely undoubted.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Ji flipped his wrist and took out a bowl of broken silver the size of a bean from his arms.

This is the last time Yang Ji seized it from Zhou Mad .

Sizzle!

When the broken silver was soaked in the vegetable soup and instantly turned black, Yang Ji's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the water.

Poisonous!

The food is really poisonous!

Yang Ji was shocked and angry, and countless thoughts swept through his mind. Uncle Liang will never harm himself, and there is only one person in the Yang clan who has this motive to harm himself - "Big Lady"!

"Poisonous woman!"

Yang Ji gritted his teeth, and his eyes showed deep resentment. If he hadn't subdued "Xiao Ji" by himself, I'm afraid it would have been a dead end at this time.

"Oh no! Liang Bo!-"

Yang Ji's heart moved, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and his body rolled out of the window like a big python.

Liang Bo has always lived with himself, except for living, everything else he eats is the same. It was already late when he came back, and Uncle Liang ......

Yang Ji didn't dare to think about it, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead. If Liang Bo has any three strengths and two shortcomings, Yang Ji will not be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"Uncle Liang, Uncle Liang, you must not have anything to do......"

Yang Jiwu was like a burner, and he hurried away. For the first time in his life, he felt deep fear and palpitations.

"Whew!"

It was dark in the night, only the sound of the wind howling, Yang Ji gritted his teeth, and galloped wildly, a short distance of eight hundred meters, but it felt like it had never been longer.

I don't know how long it took, but a dark hut finally appeared in front of me, a small lamp was on, and a familiar figure was reflected in the window paper.

"It's okay! Uncle Liang is fine! Uncle Liang is still alive......"

Seeing that figure, Yang Ji was ecstatic in his heart, and almost roared excitedly. However, the next moment, seeing the shadow of the holding up of the dishes and chopsticks on the window paper, Yang Ji's face changed greatly.

"Don't!—"

Yang Ji shouted, and a "white snake fucao" pounced more than three feet away, and rushed into the room with a bang.

Bang Bang!

Yang Ji interrupted the dishes and chopsticks in the old housekeeper's hand with one palm, and looking at the food that was spilled all over the ground, Yang Ji was shocked into a cold sweat.

"Young Master?"

The old housekeeper looked at Yang Ji who broke in in surprise, and there was still a trace of sadness on his face after waking up......

......

Coming out of the old housekeeper's room, Yang Ji's vest was wet, and there was still a deep fear in his heart.

"Qingming's affairs can't be delayed any longer. ”

Yang Ji looked at the night sky and said secretly in his heart.

He originally thought that he was hiding in the clan, and the "eldest lady" did not dare to attack him openly because of various scruples, and he was safe. But this incident reminded him of a deep crisis!

"Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to prevent", this poisoning is the most haode lesson.

Liang Bo is old, and this time he was involved because of his relationship, and he only escaped by accident. At the time of the incident, he was too tired and slept in advance, so that he could arrive in time, but next time he was not so lucky.

"'If you can prevent it for a while, you can't prevent it for a lifetime', Uncle Liang was implicated because of me. He will only be safe if I get out of here. The 'eldest lady' has already moved on my killing intentions, the clan is no longer safe, and I can only protect myself by improving myself as soon as possible. ”

Yang Ji's eyes flashed with a lot of thoughts, and Zuihou slowly became firm.
