In the dead of night, most of the lights in the escort office have been extinguished, and only a few guards are left, strolling around and patrolling outside the fence.
There are many rooms in the backyard of the escort agency, and there is also a place for the wife and aunt to live. However, Ye Jingtang has lived here with his adoptive father since he was a child, so naturally it has not been used. It was only cleaned up after Dongfang Liren came over.
The Queen Mother had just come back and went to bed early. Hongyu was living in the side room and had already fallen asleep.
But in the middle of the night, the Queen Mother, who was already asleep, turned over on the bed, opened her almond-shaped eyes and looked at the moonlight on the window paper. There were all kinds of emotions in her eyes, except that she was not sleepy.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. The same is true when it comes to security.
These days, the Queen Mother basically sits on the horse and sleeps surrounded by the night terror hall; if she rests and makes camp, she wraps herself in a blanket and rests in her arms.
It's really uncomfortable to sleep like that, but I feel safe and don't have to worry about anything except being a little shy.
At this time, I was sleeping in a large room with soft quilts. It was comfortable, but my heart was empty and panicked, and I always felt that there was something missing.
The Queen Mother stared at the window paper, knowing that she was not in the right state of mind and should not think about these things, but she couldn't help being upset and muttered secretly:
"He also said that he cared about me as much as he cared about his beloved, and then he left me alone when he came back. He didn't even know how to say hello..."
After the Queen Mother tossed and turned for a while, she finally could not suppress the irritability in her heart. She quietly stood up and put on her skirt, and then walked out of the room.
Squeak~~
The lights in the backyard were all out, and when I looked up, I could vaguely see the bird that hadn't slept in the middle of the night, squatting on the porch outside the escort agency's compound, its fur moving in the wind, thinking about something.
The Queen Mother quietly avoided sight, walked around the backyard from under the eaves, and came to the outside of the east wing.
The east chamber is a small courtyard with nothing in it. Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, you can see that there is no movement in the bedroom.
are you asleep……
The Queen Mother poked her head at the entrance of the courtyard. After hesitating for a moment, she quietly came outside the bedroom. She listened attentively first, then raised her hand, wanting to knock on the door but hesitated.
At the same time, in the room.
There was no sound in the room, and a few clothes were hung on the bedside.
Ye Jingtang's left shoulder was bandaged, and he was still half leaning on the head of the bed, with the full and full moon in front of him.
Pei Xiangjun changed his position and knelt down with his back facing the enemy, holding the quilt with his hands. There was also a white jade radish on the moon. The top of the radish could not be seen, but the small micro-engraved characters on the base could be seen.
Pei Xiangjun was slowly rising and falling, but when he heard movement coming from outside, he naturally didn't dare to move. He covered his chest with one hand and looked outside.
The Night Terror Hall did not expect anyone to come so late at night, so it was a bit inconvenient at the moment, so we turned off the lights and prepared to pretend to be asleep.
But after waiting for less than a moment, I saw light steps coming to the door, looking like he was hesitating whether to open the door and come in.
!
Pei Xiangjun was blocked in front and back, and he looked so embarrassed that he didn't dare to be caught by anyone. His mature and beautiful face suddenly became anxious, and he turned around to look at the Night Jing Hall.
Ye Jingtang immediately coughed lightly:
"Ahem——"
The Queen Mother was about to open the door and take a look. When she heard the sound, she quickly held her breath, turned around and wanted to leave, but hesitated a little. Then she suddenly heard a soft sound of "pop~" coming from the room. It seemed that she had woken up in the night and opened the cork of the water bottle to drink.
Got it.
Ta Ta ~
Soon, footsteps sounded from the house.
The Queen Mother's apricot eyes flashed, she hesitated for a moment, then she folded her hands on her waist, assuming the dignified appearance of a mother who cares about the world, and waited for the door to open before turning around:
"You fell asleep?"
Ye Jingtang walked out of the house in his outer robe, looked around first, then pulled the daring Queen Mother to the corner of the wall, and whispered:
"I just went to bed, and I haven't fallen asleep yet. Can't you sleep?"
The Queen Mother was about to speak, but felt something was wrong. She looked at Ye Jingtang's cheek under the moonlight:
"What's wrong with your face?"
"Um?"
Ye Jingtang touched his cheek: "What's wrong?"
The Queen Mother thought her face was a scar at first, but when she looked closer, she discovered that it was a red rouge mark. Her face suddenly looked a little strange. She glanced at the bedroom not far away and whispered:
"Is there anyone else in your house?"
Ye Jingtang nodded with a slightly embarrassed smile.
"..."
The Queen Mother pursed her lips, her heart suddenly filled with mixed feelings, she turned around and wanted to leave the place of right and wrong.
But Ye Jingtang sensed that the Queen Mother was not in the right mood, and was afraid that she would be tossing and turning after returning to her room, so she raised her hand to block the way and said softly:
"It's Sanniang, it's okay. If I can't sleep at night, can I take you out for a walk?"
The Queen Mother actually came over to take a look at Ye Jingtang, and most of her upset mood disappeared. Now she is afraid of being discovered and just wants to go back quickly.
When she saw that Ye Jingtang was blocking her from leaving, she pretended to be calm:
"It's not that I can't sleep. I'm just worried about your injury. Come and take a look. You've been injured so badly and you should rest more. Medical books say 'one drop of sperm and ten drops of blood'..."
Ye Jingtang nodded and said: "I know what's appropriate. Don't think too much at night, Madam. In the coming days, you should eat and sleep, and I won't run away."
The Queen Mother bit her lower lip lightly, nodded Ruoyouruowu, glanced at Ye Jingtang, waved her hand and said:
"Okay, please get out of the way, I'm going back."
The Night Terror Hall hesitated for a moment, feeling that the Queen Mother, who was tossing and turning, could not make her trip in vain, so she looked around a few times, then took a half step forward, pushed the Queen Mother against the wall, and started talking like they were on the road.
Warm your hands.
?!
The Queen Mother was caught off guard, and her eyes suddenly panicked. She wanted to scold Ye Jingtang, but was afraid that outsiders would hear it, so she could only cover her red lips with her hands, staring at Ye Jingtang with her crystal eyes, probably meaning - how could you do this?
!I can’t come back if I promise...
But this look is harmless.
Ye Jingtang was not stupid. He knew that the Queen Mother had been awake all night and secretly came over to say hello. He lowered his head and stared into those watery eyes. He put his hands into his arms to warm them. He also opened the thin fabric and attached it to
On the skin, twist.
"!!"
In the past few days, the Queen Mother had been separated by clothes. She had never been humiliated. She hid here and there, covering her lips with strength, arching her insteps, and silently stamping her feet until she couldn't bear it anymore and almost burst into tears. She was so lawless in front of her.
Only when you become a disciple will you give up.
The Queen Mother broke free from the sea of suffering, with obvious shame, anger and grievance in her eyes. She glared at Ye Jingtang, then hugged her clothes, lowered her head and walked out, as if the palace would never pay attention to you again.
Seeing this, Ye Jingtang felt that even if the Queen Mother lay awake all night, she would probably not be depressed, so she felt more relieved. After watching the Queen Mother trot away, she shook her head and smiled, then turned around and returned to the house.
Pei Xiangjun huddled in the cup and heard that it was the Queen Mother who came, but she didn't hear what happened next. Of course, she didn't have the heart to listen. After all, the torture tools that Ning'er prepared for her were really torturous.
Seeing Ye Jingtang come in, she opened her mouth and said:
"What's the Queen Mother doing?"
"I couldn't sleep at night, so I wanted to check on my injury."
Visit the injured...
Seeing that it was almost midnight, Pei Xiangjun was naturally dubious about this statement, but he didn't bother to ask any more questions and stood up to continue serving.
But Ye Jingtang felt that Sanniang was really working hard, and it was obviously inappropriate for him to keep leaning against him like an uncle, so he asked Sanniang Maomao to stretch her body while he helped to unblock her muscles and bones...
——
The stars passed by, and the time came before dawn without realizing it.
The birds that had been playing outside for half the night flew back to the backyard when it was time to go to bed, fell asleep and fell asleep without any sound.
After a night's rest, Ye Jingtang got up at almost the same time, covered Sanniang with a quilt, and got up and went to the courtyard of the escort agency.
Each courtyard is ten feet wide. It is usually used to park carriages and horses. Bodyguards also practice martial arts here. Indentations left by martial arts practice can be seen everywhere over the decades. There are two indentations in front of the wooden figure in the northeast corner.
The pit is where he walked when he was young.
Ye Jingtang held the dragon-crying gun in his hand and placed it horizontally on the wooden stake. He faced the east and took a gentle breath before sliding his feet into a horse stance.
But the distance between the pits on the ground was obviously too small, and he felt a bit effeminate when he stepped on it, so he forgot about it and took out a book from his arms to look at it.
The book has no name, it is just the martial arts concepts summarized by the third generation of King Tianlang for his successors to learn from. If he insists on naming it, it can probably be called "The Secret Book of the Ye Family".
There are hundreds of martial arts schools in Jianghu, and each martial arts school has its own characteristics. The body must be polished into a shape suitable for the martial arts learned, and they are not completely universal.
For example, if you don't practice bone-shrinking skills from a young age, you won't be able to learn them until you become a monk and die; and if you practice kung fu horizontally, normal people won't be able to use it even if they know the secrets of the moves.
There are also some martial arts that are created through personal strengths, such as those with slender limbs practicing Tongbei Quan, those with short stature practicing lying down swords, etc., turning the differences between oneself and ordinary people into one's own talents and transforming them into talents.
Absolute advantage.
And the physique tempered by Tianlang Pearl has flawless Qi veins, the speed of Qi lifting is far faster than that of ordinary people, and the Qi energy is transmitted with almost no loss. This is a foundation that normal people cannot have. Naturally, there is no supporting technique in the world to amplify this.
One advantage.
The Tianlang Kings of all generations, after their physical changes, through three generations of excavation and research, specially created a set of exercises to match these advantages.
The general idea is to take a slanted approach, use a speed that ordinary people cannot have, and instantly mobilize energy that ordinary people cannot bear, and push forward in a wave.
This theory is similar to Fengchi Blood Reverse, but Fengchi Reverse Blood uses self-mutilation to allow Qi and blood to flow backwards and take shortcuts, thereby mobilizing Qi and blood and increasing instantaneous explosive power.
But this method uses Qi meridians that ordinary people can't use at all, and its explosive power is more terrifying, and it does not cause self-injury.
However, a body that has not been tempered with Tianlang Beads will have difficulty supporting the Qi Veins and bones, and will self-destruct as soon as it is used.
Even if a person has good Qi and meridians, it will be difficult to use it if he cannot raise Qi quickly.
This method also has shortcomings - the instantaneous explosive power is too large, the battery life will definitely not be able to keep up, and it will soon lose its strength after being used for a long time.
But this doesn't matter to Ye Jingtang. After all, top masters compete with each other, and the outcome is only one move. You have to survive before you can be qualified to talk about battery life. If you don't survive, no matter how strong your physical strength is, it will still be a piece of rotten flesh.
After Ye Jingtang carefully scanned the book, he unhooked the holster, put his left hand behind his back, held the butt of the gun with one hand and raised the gun. He closed his eyes and began to deduce the complicated Qi pulses recorded in the book in his mind.
The autumn breeze is cool and the town is quiet.
For more than ten years, Ye Jingtang stood in front of a wooden stake every morning to practice martial arts. Every notch on the wooden stake recorded his height on New Year's Eve every year.
Ye Jingtang also complained when he was exhausted and asked how long he would practice like this.
My adoptive father once replied: "When you get to the point where you are taller than a wooden stake, you will leave the profession, and dad will be free for a few days without having to worry about you."
Now standing here again, the Night Terror Hall is already much higher than the wooden stakes, but I find that I am still on the road, with no end in sight at all.
But the guide who was very strict and would give him a stick if he made any mistakes really ignored him and he could only walk the rest of the way by himself.
Ye Jingtang closed his eyes and practiced the exercises, but he felt unusually restless and couldn't enter samadhi. His mind was filled with memories of his childhood.
After an unknown amount of time, footsteps suddenly came from the door of the main room.
Ta Ta ~
Ye Jingtang's heart was moved, and when he looked back, he saw the real Xuanji in a white dress walking out with a wine gourd, leaning on the pillar in front of the door in a casual manner:
"You are absent-minded when practicing martial arts, but you will get beaten by the master. Are you still thinking about girls?"
Ye Jingtang shook his head and smiled, put away his long spear and placed it horizontally on the wooden stake:
"It's just touching the scene. When I was a child, I practiced kung fu here and was often beaten by my adoptive father. When I returned to my hometown, I suddenly had no one to encourage me, so I felt a little uncomfortable."
Master Xuanji blinked her eyes, hung the wine bottle on her waist, came to the courtyard wall, took out a black riding crop, tapped it on her palm, and assumed the posture of a cool female teacher:
"I didn't see that you still like this kind of style. Come on, you practice, and I will push you."
?
Although Xuanji is very beautiful, Ye Jingtang has no masochistic tendencies and does not like this kind of fun. He shook his head and said:
"What's the use of fighting? You're not much better than me."
Seeing Ye Jingtang being so crazy, Master Xuanji was naturally a little dissatisfied. She came behind and hooked her white shoes on Ye Jingtang's ankles, asking him to slide his legs apart:
"Whether you are good at martial arts and whether you can teach others are two different things. A person who can become a peerless master may not necessarily be a good master. Otherwise, martial arts would be hereditary and passed down from generation to generation. I can teach a sage, and I can also teach
Prince Chu Jing is recognized as the 'Emperor Master' by the world, do you think you are more powerful than the Holy One?"
When Ye Jingtang saw Master Xuanji, she directly hooked her legs without saying anything. She slid her legs apart and locked herself into a horse stance:
"Then you teach me."
Da, da~
Real Xuanji tapped her riding whip on her palm, walked around the Night Terror Hall, nodded slightly, and then asked:
"How did you feel when you hugged Qinghe last time?"
"Um?"
Ye Jingtang had just calmed down and was stunned when he heard these words, and his heart naturally lost its breath. Suddenly, for no reason, he saw Master Xuanji's eyes turned cold and he raised his small leather whip:
"Stand still!"
Her eyes are very fierce, and she really looks like a stern female master.
Ye Jingtang re-arranged his posture, looked ahead without moving, and asked:
"Miss Fan was too excited. She just expressed her gratitude. How could I feel? Besides, she hugged me, not me."
Master Xuanji continued to circle around: "Aren't they all the same? Qinghe's clothes are so big, and he took the initiative to throw himself into his arms. Did you really have no idea at the time?"
Ye Jingtang said helplessly: "Men and women are not close to each other. Miss Fan is agitated and behaves excessively. It's normal for me to notice something wrong, but there are definitely no evil thoughts."
"Then last time on the boat at Junshantai, I treated your injuries. Why did you have evil thoughts towards me?"
"I fell into a coma and mistakenly identified the wrong person."
"Then in Langxuan City, you knew clearly that it was me in front of you, but you still created many complications, and even lied to me, causing me to hold it with my hands..."
A lot of trouble?!
Ye Jingtang felt that this word was really original. Before he could speak, he was slapped on his leg. He turned around and said:
"Are you really fighting??
Master Xuanji said confidently: "A few words can disturb your mind and breath. Do you think you should fight?"
Ye Jingtang spread his hands and said: "I know my breath is messed up, but you said these things are not there, why am I so motionless?"
Master Xuanji frowned and said, "How dare you talk back to Master?"
Ye Jingtang opened his mouth, but stood up without refuting:
"Master has to teach by words and deeds. If you can do this without moving like a mountain, I will let you fight until you learn."
Seeing this, Master Xuanji didn't give up. He threw the small leather whip to Ye Jingtang, slid his feet away, put his hands on his waist, and made a standard horse stance:
"You talk about being serious, but in fact you have evil intentions. You talk a lot, but your heart is always calm. This is where I am better than you. Do you really think that I, the great Wei Laoliu, was promoted by people in the world because of my beauty?"
Ye Jingtang didn't believe it at all. He held a riding crop with his hands behind his back, looked around Master Xuanji for a few times, and then asked:
"Before, in Wushan, you took Chinese medicine and hugged me. How did it feel?"
Master Xuanji remained as still as a mountain and responded with clear eyes:
"My whole body feels hot, my breath is restless, and it feels very comfortable to rub against it. I think you look quite good-looking."
"..."
Ye Jingtang looked at Taoist Shui'er, whose breath and expression had not changed at all. His expression, which was originally chatting and laughing, showed a hint of solemnity.
After all, what Master Xuanji shows now from head to toe is - purity that has emerged from the mud but not stained, a thorough understanding of world affairs, and a clear conscience and honesty.
It felt to him as if he, a fool, was teasing a wise man in a vulgar taste.
The wise man understood the meaning and laughed too, but it was this smile that narrowed the gap between the two sides.
After Ye Jingtang observed for a while, he realized that Taoist Shui'er was really not an ordinary person. He stopped his joking attitude, re-gaited the horse's stance beside him, thought for a while and said:
"Why do I feel that King Zuo Xian, Li Maci, is not as advanced as Fairy Lu? King Zuo Xian is a mortal like me, and Fairy Lu is indeed a bit of a fairy."
Master Xuanji stood up straight, her eyes filled with pride, and walked around the Night Terror Hall again:
"I am a Taoist first, and then a martial artist, so my state of mind is naturally higher than that of ordinary people below the mountain. I pay attention to Taoism and nature, and follow my heart. If you want to reach my state, you must first open your mind and face your heart honestly, and then you should
If you like what you like, you should like it openly, and if you should hate it, you should hate it by any means. If your goal is firm and will not be shaken by the outside world, you will naturally have a clear mind and be as immovable as a mountain."
Ye Jingtang nodded thoughtfully: "Am I not frank enough?"
Master Xuanji stood behind him with his arms folded and explained:
"It's not about being honest with me, it's about being honest with yourself. If you were openly lustful, and what I just said about you, how could you be unsettled? You would only tease me with a bad smile..."
After hearing this explanation, Ye Jingtang felt that it made sense, but it was impossible to admit that he was a pervert. After thinking about it, he tilted his head and asked:
"You mean, Fairy Lu is just talking nonsense and following the trend, but in reality her heart is calm and she doesn't feel anything about me in her heart?"
"..."
When Master Xuanji faced this question, his eyes moved slightly, showing a hint of hesitation. In the end, he just leaned into Ye Jingtang's ear and said in a demonic voice:
"How do you want me to feel?"
Ye Jingtang really couldn't answer this question, so he just said:
"If the saint is truly a ruthless person who follows the trend, likes the people he should like, and kills the enemies he should kill without any trouble in his heart, then I still think it is better to be an ordinary person.
"Love that remains silent for a lifetime is also an emotion that comes from the bottom of my heart; but if we get along day and night without any waves in our hearts, then even if we call each other husband and wife until death, we will still be strangers who have been together all our lives."
Xuanji’s eyes looked helpless:
"What nonsense are you talking about? I completely misunderstand you! What I mean is, 'Be honest with your heart and don't be confused by what you want in your heart.' It doesn't mean that you can't have a heart like a deer or a spring heart. On the contrary, you have to do what you want.
, don’t actively avoid what’s in your heart.”
"Really? Then I did understand it wrong, um... it means that Fairy Lu can also have feelings for the person she likes?"
?
Faced with this problem, Master Xuanji raised her eyebrows, thought for a moment, raised her hand to pick up a strand of Ye Jingtang's hair, and played with it on her fingertips:
"What do you mean? You want to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors? Have you forgotten that Li Ren is sleeping in the back?"
Ye Jingtang looked more serious and said helplessly:
"I'm just asking out of curiosity."
"Hmph~"
Only then was Master Xuanji satisfied. He let go of his hair and said, "Practice hard. Since you have spoken, I will definitely beat you until you learn." Then he slowly returned to the backyard.
Ye Jingtang was already in a state of uneasiness, but Master Xuanji taught him such a lesson. Well, he was immediately confused.
After Master Xuanji left, Ye Jingtang dug his feet into the ground and began to try to suppress his thoughts and calm down.
But before he could calm down for long, he heard footsteps coming from the side yard, and She Long and Shang Jianli walked out.
She Long was still playing Haqie when he entered the courtyard and found Master Ye getting up before dawn and starting to practice. A bit of admiration inevitably appeared in his eyes, but he immediately said strangely:
"Master Ye, you are already a martial arts master, but you still practice basic skills on horseback? You don't even have to bear weight. Is it really useful?"
Shang Jianli also felt that it was a waste of time for the majestic martial artist to step on the horse with his bare hands, but after a little thought, he explained on his behalf:
"What do you know? Going up from Wu Kui is the realm of returning to nature. Master Ye must have touched the threshold of the martial saint. Here, you can return to nature and step on horseback, which is different from the way children do."
"Yeah……"
Ye Jingtang was still thinking about how to explain it, but when he heard that Mr. Shang was so capable, he stopped talking and calmed down:
"Just practicing. You two haven't had breakfast yet? There's a good mutton shop in front..."
"The water basin mutton is authentic, go ahead..."
"Uncle Song and the others..."
"Song Chi and the others are working on a new temple at Heishiguan. They may be too busy in a short time. His Highness said that they should leave for Yazhou as soon as possible and return from Qingjiang when they are done. I don't know if Master Ye can bear it physically..."
"It's okay for me, just rest on the road...Old Li, here are three bowls of mutton..."
"Okay... Speaking of Jingtang, when did you get married? With so many nursing homes in your daughter-in-law's family, isn't it because she married into a wealthy family?"
"Well……"
"Hahaha……"
…
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty in the East, cocks crowing and dogs barked everywhere in the border town.
A new day also begins amidst the steaming boiler and men talking and laughing...
