Text Chapter 18 Regeneration and Change
In the evening, Ye Yurou's body had fully recovered, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the clouds shrouded in Suokou Village finally dispersed, the village was full of relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and the villagers of Suokou prepared a banquet in order to express their gratitude. Lan Jiuming saw that everyone was busy, so he walked away alone, he didn't like to be lively, he looked around, and walked towards the entrance of the village. Different from the noise of the village, there are warblers singing and dancing everywhere here, as far as the eye can see, the green mountains and green waters, the scenery is infinite: the two rivers flow straight and parallel to the distance, looking at each other but never intersecting, the banks are full of wild grasses and wild flowers, where there is water, there will be aura, this place is full of life because of the surrounding of the two rivers.
He let out a sigh of relief, trying to spit out the depression in his heart, but as soon as he remembered that there was no innocence, the floodgates of memory would open, and messy emotions poured out like a flood. He tried his best to suppress his uneasiness, because he knew that if he wanted to find out the truth, he had to stay calm, and the next thing he had to face was not only the sinister rivers and lakes, but also the inner struggle!
Lan Jiuming was pondering when he heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Ye Yurou. At this time, she has changed a set of clothes, the light green long skirt is draped with a white gauze, with the breeze skirt gently fluttering, the figure is graceful and moving! The land of arching is not like the outside society, invaded and integrated by various cultures, but it has preserved the national characteristics very well, since the beginning of the Qin period, the costumes of the land of arching have undergone thousands of years of changes, which not only retains the national cultural temperament, but also abandons the bloated appearance, Lan Jiuming feels that it is more fashionable than the clothing of modern society, and the unique temperament of Ye Yurou is even more beautiful to a new height!
Lan Jiuming found that this girl was very special, her eyes were very pure, which made people be able to let go of the haze mood, and after a few seconds of looking at each other, Lan Jiuming's tumbling emotions had quieted down a lot, and he even looked forward to being able to look at her more, Ye Yurou did not avoid his gaze, and looked straight at him.
"Brother Lan, it's about to start, and everyone can't find you. Ye Yurou was the first to speak.
"Well, let's go back!"
The two walked side by side, and at sunset, the country road had a unique view. Ye Yurou looked up at Lan Jiuming: "Brother Lan, you risked your life to save my life, I haven't thanked you properly!"
"You don't have to worry about it, I just did what I could, and I wouldn't let it go if I was someone else. ”
"Brother Lan, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been caught in a robber, I don't know how to repay the life-saving grace, if you don't dislike it......"
Lan Jiuming interrupted her: "Miss Arou, it can be regarded as a coincidence that I can save you, if it weren't for Brother Hu's kindness to take us in, I wouldn't have a chance to help, you can survive, it's not my credit alone, but also thanks to Aunt Ye and Brother Hu's hard work, so if you want to repay me, take care of yourself, don't let Aunt Ye worry about them." ”
Ye Yurou answered softly, lowered her head and stopped talking. Lan Jiuming looked at her and thought of Yu'er, and there was an inexplicable sour feeling in his heart, he stopped and said: "Miss Arou, I heard Xiaoyue say that after you got rid of the poisonous Gu, some changes have occurred in the muscles and veins of your body, and now there are two true qi in your body, me and Xiaoyue, and ordinary people can't easily hurt you, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, but you don't know how to use it, I'll help you reconcile it, and give you a gift by the way!"
Ye Yurou's cheeks suddenly turned crimson, she closed her eyes, and she felt a warm current spread from her palm to her whole body, and finally converged in the dantian. According to Lan Jiuming's instructions, every time she breathed, the qi in the dantian would spread all over her body, and it would flow back into the dantian, and after a while, she felt that her lower abdomen was warm and her whole body was light.
Soon she was able to control the flow of True Qi in her body on her own, "Now, you raise the True Qi to your whole body, and then take a step forward to try!" Lan Jiuming said softly.
Ye Yurou followed Lan Jiuming's method, and her true qi spread all over her body, all the way to her fingertips, and she suddenly felt that her body was fluttering, and with a slight jump, she flew out two or three feet away. She couldn't believe her eyes.
"Brother Lan, this ....."
Lan Jiuming smiled and said: "This is the ultimate light skill of Taoism, you have to practice more, don't slack off, if you encounter danger in the future, don't entangle and just escape, no one can catch up with you!"
Ye Yurou was very moved, "Brother Lan, you are so good to me, how can I repay you?"
Lan Jiuming saw that there were too many things in her eyes, so she quickly avoided them and said, "You get rid of the poisonous Gu and start a new life, this is a gift of rebirth from me, our acquaintance is also a kind of fate, in my heart I already regard you as a friend, don't talk about repaying or not repaying between us!"
What he said was understated but very sincere, which made Ye Yurou feel very warm. She was moved in her heart and didn't mention it anymore, and told Lan Jiuming a lot of anecdotes about Suokou Village along the way, and the two of them slowly and leisurely shook until the sun completely set, and then walked back!
"Brother Ming, where have you been, everyone is waiting for you to start the banquet!" As soon as Lan Jiuming entered the hospital, Wei Xiaofeng pulled him over and said complainingly: "You won't come back for such a long time, I'm dying of hunger!"
"Brother Lan, come on, come on, sit here. Hu Yongsheng enthusiastically arranged for Lan Jiuming and the three of them to sit down, and the village chief picked up a bowl of wine and said excitedly: "Folks, we have been deceived by the Yin soldiers in the past few years, God has mercy on us, and three heroes have come, help us get rid of this gang of robbers, we will give the three heroes a cup!"
Everyone picked up the wine bowl in their hands and drank it all. The sweet rice wine is stored in the cold cellar, the taste of the wine is pure, refreshing, Lan Jiuming drank a few big bowls in a row, and he didn't feel a little drunk, Wei Xiaoyue sat beside him, "Brother Ming, I didn't expect you to be quite able to drink!"
"I rarely drink alcohol over there!" Lan Jiuming stared at the wine bowl in his hand and said, "The people here don't seem to know the technology of distilling liquor, they are all rice wine, the degree is not high, the taste is refreshing, not as spicy as the liquor in modern society!"
"There are beautiful people here, are you still willing to leave?" Wei Xiaoyue said with a smile.
Lan Jiuming smiled helplessly, saying that he didn't understand what she said, he didn't answer her words, lifted the wine jug and poured the wine to the full, and handed it to Wei Xiaoyue, "Take a sip, it tastes really good!"
Wei Xiaoyue took the wine bowl, took a sip, and nodded decently, "Good wine!"
Lan Jiuming laughed out loud, turned his head to look at Wei Xiaofeng, he had already drunk a piece with them, so happy! He drank all the remaining wine in the bowl, and said to Wei Xiaoyue: "Let's leave early tomorrow morning, I asked just now, beyond the mountain in the south, there will be a market town, and we will make plans when we get there!"
As soon as Lan Jiuming's words fell, he suddenly heard a miserable scream, he hurriedly looked for the sound, it turned out to be from the center of the village, everyone heard it, and they put down the dishes and chopsticks one after another, ready to get up to see what happened!
At this time, a villager ran into the courtyard in a panic, "Village chief, it's not good, what about it..... Those ..... Yin soldiers are ..... Dead!"
"What?" the village chief staggered to his feet, "you make it clear!"
The villager swallowed his saliva in a panic and said, "A few of us saw that they were tied strongly, so we went into the house to drink, and while we were drinking, we suddenly smelled the smell of burning, and when we went out to see, several people were all burning, rolling on the ground, we quickly extinguished the fire, but a few of them were out of gas!"
"Take me there. The village chief hurried to the central square with the group.
Lan Jiuming felt a little strange, and followed the village chief and his party to the square in the center of the village, the fire at the scene had been extinguished, but there was still smoke, several corpses had been burned to the shape of a human, and there was a smell of burnt meat everywhere!
"Brother Ming, did you find anything?" Wei Xiaoyue then rushed over and saw the scene in front of her.
"Do you think his corpse is strange?" Lan Jiuming asked.
Wei Xiaoyuezai looked at it carefully and said, "The way the fire started is very strange, look here!" Wei Xiaoyue pointed to the chest of the big boss, "There is a wound here, two fingers wide, as if it was caused by a blunt object, but judging from the traces of the spread of the flames, this opening is more like a source of fire!"
When everyone heard Wei Xiaoyue say this, they did find that there was a two-inch hole in his chest, and not only this corpse, all the Yin soldiers had such a hole, after being burned by the fire, the inside had been charred and pierced through the body!
"You're right, the mouth is highly charred, and the skin and flesh in the vicinity are the most seriously burned, and the farther away you are, the lighter the burn. Lan Jiuming paused, and then said, "This wound on the chest of the big boss also shows one thing, the fire started to burn from the inside!"
Hu Yongsheng couldn't believe it, "Brother Lan, do you mean that the fire in his stomach started first, and then he burned the outside?"
"That's right, I pierced my body with external force, but I didn't die, but when my chest was pierced, the fire had already begun to burn in my body, and the big boss had deep skills, although I was bound to the true qi in my body, I instinctively protected my body, but the other party was too strong, and I still gave my life, and the body was not burned through!"
"Will there be such a powerful person?" Hu Yongsheng They had just gotten rid of the shadow of the Yin soldiers, and now after Lan Jiuming said this, their uneasy hearts rose again, and everyone turned their heads to each other, and the fear spread rapidly.
