Jueqing Valley has beautiful scenery and is covered with many flowers and plants.
The same is naturally true for Gongsun Zhi's residence.
Chen Xuan followed Gongsun Lu'e all the way to the backyard, and when he encountered any guards in the valley, he would leave them to Gongsun Lu'e to deal with.
The two of them quickly arrived at the wing in the backyard.
This place is where Gongsun Zhi usually rests. Like other places in Jueqing Valley, it is quiet, elegant and unadorned.
After entering the house, there were no tables, chairs or benches. There was only a low table with incense burners, lampstands and other sundries. Behind the table was a futon for meditation.
Perhaps in order to welcome his new wife, Gongsun Zhi specially arranged a simple floor mat in the side room and some bright red wedding quilts.
Chen Xuan followed Gongsun Lu'e into the room. Looking at the bright red quilt, he couldn't help but frown and asked.
"I can't tell, your father is quite sentimental."
"..." Gongsun Lu'e blushed and did not respond. He just changed the subject and asked, "What should we do now?"
Chen Xuan asked, "What about the medicinal powder?"
Only then did Gongsun Lv'e react. He took out a packet of medicine powder from his sleeve pocket and whispered.
"This is the medicinal powder I told you before. This medicinal powder is originally used to aid sleep, but if it is added to the candlelight and roasted, the smoke will attack people and make people fall into coma in a short time.
"
"How long can I be fascinated?"
"About twenty-four hours."
"So long?!"
Although Chen Xuan had heard her talk about this thing when he and Gongsun Lu'e were discussing in the front hall just now, he really didn't expect that this medicinal powder was so powerful.
"Really or not? Have you tried it?"
"Why am I lying to you? My father is good at refining alchemy. There is even a special alchemy room in this valley, so he is naturally proficient in pharmacology."
Gongsun Lv'e explained this, but Chen Xuan had a new question.
"Your father actually knows a lot about pharmacology, so will this medicine powder be discovered by him?"
"No." Gongsun Lv'e shook his head, "The smoke emitted by this medicine is odorless. Although there is some black smoke, it is like mixed with the light. Unless you look carefully, there is no possibility of discovering it."
"Are you sure?"
Chen Xuan asked again and again, which made Gongsun Luhe frown slightly, and even lost his temper for a while.
"You can try it if you want. Why do you have to be so long-winded? If you don't believe me, why bother encouraging me to do these things?"
This girl has always had an elegant and quiet temperament, but now she unexpectedly lost her temper.
Chen Xuan knew that her heart might have turned into a mess.
After all, she has to deal with her father Gongsun Zhi now.
Chen Xuan was also an old man. When he saw her losing his temper, he quickly stepped forward and took her into his arms, speaking softly.
"Good girl, you are my little wife, how can I not trust you? Aren't I afraid of hurting you? If this medicine powder fails, it will harm you and me. This matter is not a trivial matter, and you and I must be careful.
.”
"..."
Gongsun Lv'e didn't know that this was a common saying for scumbags. Even though he felt vaguely uneasy, he never quarreled with him again.
Just when Chen Xuan was about to say a few more words, the sound of "cracking" firecrackers suddenly came from the front hall.
Chen Xuan's heart moved and he said quickly.
"Good girl, put the medicine on first."
Gongsun Lv'e gritted his teeth. After being urged by him, he didn't have time to think too much. He poured the medicine powder into the tea cup on the table, soaked it with water for a while, and then poured the medicine into the lamp oil.
Finally, use the corner of your clothes to dry the marks inside the cup.
Chen Xuan lowered his head and glanced at the lampstand on the table. He saw that the potion in the lampstand seemed to be integrated into the lamp oil, and there was no abnormality at all. He couldn't help but secretly marveled and said curiously.
"What's the name of this medicinal powder? Is there any more?"
"This thing is called Nanfeng Zui. It is made by drying the fruits of the love flower, grinding them into powder, and refining them with other medicinal materials. Although the materials are not uncommon, the production process is very cumbersome, and it took me a long time.
I did some before. Now this is all that’s left.”
While talking, Gongsun Lv'e took out another small porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
Chen Xuan took it and weighed it. The porcelain bottle was very light and there was not much powder inside.
He picked up the red cloth stopper of the porcelain bottle and was about to go over to smell if it was Nanfeng Zui. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Lu'e rolled his eyes at him and pushed him.
"How can you be so stupid? How can you smell this thing so easily?"
Chen Xuanhan smiled and said, "That's true."
This act of pretending to be honest made Gongsun Lv'e unable to hit or scold him for a while.
Although Chen Xuan deliberately acted stupid, he did not forget the business and reminded him quickly.
"Now that everything is set up here, let's go to the front hall first to avoid your father becoming suspicious."
Gongsun Lv'e nodded.
The two checked the signs in the house, and after making sure that nothing was revealed, they hurried to the front hall.
Although the firecrackers had gone off for a while just now, Gongsun Zhi and Xiao Longnu were still outside the hospital.
Gongsun Lv'e hurriedly walked to the hall. There were maids on both sides asking her to go and greet her.
She had just been half-coaxed and half-cheated by Chen Xuan to do something in Gongsun Zhi's room, and she felt a little guilty. But now that the maid was urging her to guide Xiao Longnu, she was so angry that she no longer felt guilty at all.
"Invite newcomers into the palace!"
While they were talking, Fan Yiweng, who had fought against the old naughty boy Zhou Botong before, became the master of ceremonies and announced the salute loudly.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Longnu, dressed in red and wearing a phoenix crown and harem, and Gongsun Zhi, dressed as a groom, walked in hand in hand.
Gongsun Lu'e stood behind Xiao Longnu, looking like an angry little maid. If the person next to Chen Xuan had secretly given him a look.
Chen Xuan secretly smiled bitterly and shook his head. He felt that this girl looked elegant and delicate, but she was actually a woman who was not afraid of trouble. She must have always disliked this marriage, but she just suffered from the fact that no one took the lead in opposing it.
Now that she has a good husband like him taking the lead in wreaking havoc, she is naturally willing to take action.
Gongsun Zhi didn't know that Chen Xuan and Gongsun Lu'e had already done something secretly, so he was just immersed in joy.
Chen Xuan had already made a plan, and naturally he would not stop it easily. He just watched with cold eyes, watching Gongsun Zhi and Xiao Longnu bowing one by one.
Gongsun Zhizao had secretly coveted Xiao Longnu, so the process of getting married was simplified as much as possible. A simple formality was enough to complete the ceremony.
Afterwards, he waved to everyone present and gave a cursory toast. The wedding banquet was considered complete, and he quickly led Xiao Longnu to the private room in the backyard.
Jin Lun Dharma King didn't care about this, but Xiao Xiangzi, Nimo Xing and others recruited by Kublai Khan were unruly gangsters.
Ma Guangzuo poured the wine glass on the table and curled his lips.
"What the hell are they? They really faded away like a bird."
"That's right, it's said to be a wedding wine, but it turns out there's not even wine in the valley. How can it be called a wedding wine?"
"By the way, since today is a wedding banquet, how about we just go to the noisy dormitory?"
Several people looked at each other, and except for Xiao Xiangzi, who had a cold expression, most of them were somewhat interested. However, before they could get up to watch the fun, Jin Lun Dharma King reminded him indifferently.
"This valley is not a place to stay for a long time, and it is best not to grow any branches outside of it."
Only then did everyone come back to their senses. Before, the old naughty boy Zhou Botong was afraid of the fishing net formation in the Jueqing Valley. Now several people have been recruited by Kublai Khan. The glory and wealth are right in front of them. Why bother here to fight with the owner of the Jueqing Valley?
Not interesting.
Thinking of this, Xiaoxiangzi and others ate something casually with Jinlun Dharma King, and planned to bid farewell after a while.
………………………………
The other side.
As soon as Gongsun Zhi and Xiao Longnu left, Chen Xuan quietly stood up and left the table, jumped onto the ridge of the roof, and reached the roof in a few ups and downs.
He gently took off a piece of blue tile from the roof, just enough to see what was going on inside the house.
At this time, Gongsun Zhi had already led Xiao Longnu into the room. He closed the door behind his back and called, "Liu Mei."
Xiao Longnu didn't say anything either.
However, Gongsun Zhi didn't seem to take it seriously. He turned around and lit the oil lamp on the table, rubbing his hands slightly greasyly.
"Mei Liu, let me take a good look at you."
Xiao Longnu finally reacted a little at this time. She suddenly seemed to feel something. She suddenly covered her heart and let out a muffled groan.
Seeing that the beauty was so haggard, Gongsun Zhi couldn't think too much for the moment and said hurriedly.
"Didn't you just take the medicine? Sister Liu, don't worry, I will give you the pill right now. It's a pity that the old naughty boy is really hateful. He actually took away a 400-year-old Ganoderma lucidum that I had collected in the valley, and even ruined it.
You dropped the heart-raising pills I made for Liu Mei, otherwise why would you let Liu Mei suffer so much?"
After that, he poured a pill from the porcelain bottle and handed it to Xiao Longnu's hand.
Although Xiao Longnu had lost her memory, she seemed to know that the pills were useful in relieving her injuries, so she lifted up her phoenix crown, lowered her head and took the pills.
This brief glimpse made Gongsun Zhi's eyes light up and he couldn't help but praise him.
"Mei Liu, you are so beautiful."
"..." After hearing this, Xiao Longnu seemed to raise her head and glance at him, but remained silent.
While the two were chatting, Chen Xuan had been hiding on the roof and watching for a long time. He secretly counted the time. He originally thought that the Nanfeng Zui that Gongsun Lu'e put in the lamp oil would attack soon, but he didn't expect that after waiting so long
For a long time, there was no reaction.
"Could it be that the medicinal powder was soaked in the lamp oil and lost its effectiveness?"
When Chen Xuan thought of this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. If the medicine powder failed, things would be in trouble.
This Gongsun Zhi's martial arts are not weak. The three techniques of closing acupuncture points, fishing net formation, and the Yin and Yang double edge of golden sword and black sword are all inherited from his ancestors. It's just because he has lived in this secluded Jueqing Valley deep in the mountains for hundreds of years.
Associating with outsiders, so although these three martial arts are powerful, they are not known to people in the world.
In addition, although these three martial arts are strange, they all have extremely obvious vital points. If detected by an expert, they can easily be counterattacked and even lead to death.
Gongsun once left his ancestral precepts to prevent future generations from seeking hegemony in the world, and this was also out of consideration for protecting future generations.
In addition to the fishing net formation, the self-locking pulse kung fu and the double blades of yin and yang, Gongsun Zhi married Qiu Qianren's sister Qiu Qianchi more than 20 years ago and learned the secret skills of the Iron Master.
Relying on Qiu Qianchi's relationship, Gongsun Zhide made up for many shortcomings in his family's martial arts, especially the Yin-Yang Double Blade moves.
Qiu Qianchi once said to him back then, "This martial art of using both swords and swords has reached the level of Mahayana. No matter how advanced your opponent's martial arts is, he may not be able to see the life gate of this sword move within fifty moves. But you
With both blades moving, how can it be that I can't kill him within fifty moves?"
Therefore, Gongsun Zhi's double blade of yin and yang can be said to be a unique skill that can kill within fifty moves.
Chen Xuan knew how powerful it was, so he didn't dare to fight Gongsun Zhi easily. However, now that Nanfeng Zui had not shown any effect, he still felt guilty after all.
"Isn't it Gongsun Lu'e who tricked me? If that girl used fake medicine, wouldn't Xiao Longnu have to be harmed by Gongsun Zhi?"
When he thought of this, Chen Xuan could no longer sit still. He secretly got angry and planned to jump down directly.
However, just when he was about to break in directly, Xiao Longnu, who was in the room, put her hand on her forehead and seemed a little dazed. She turned her head and leaned on the desk and fainted.
Gongsun Zhi shook his head, as if he felt something was wrong, and frowned.
"It's strange. I have never drank alcohol before, so why did I suddenly become drowsy today? Sister Liu, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Gongsun Zhi suddenly fell down on the table and fainted.
"It's done!" Chen Xuan had been waiting for a long time, and he didn't care about anything else at this time. He jumped directly, grabbed the eaves and beams with one hand, and rushed into the house.
"aunt!"
As he spoke, he quickly walked up to Gongsun Zhi, raised his hand and tapped several acupuncture points on his body, and then checked to confirm that he had indeed passed out. Then he picked up Xiao Longnu and wanted to take her with him.
Let her leave.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Longnu in his arms, and felt that a strange sweet fragrance from her body invaded his nostrils.
"This smell is indeed a scent that both of us know. It seems that she has indeed encountered a master from the Black Horn Society."
Chen Xuan was very familiar with the smell of this poison. After all, he had smelled it on Huang Rong countless times before. The more emotional he was, the more obvious the smell became.
Chen Xuan's heart moved, he looked at the porcelain bottle Gongsun Zhi had placed on the table, and thought to himself.
"No wonder Xiao Longnu agreed to marry him. It seems that Gongsun Zhi's so-called elixir and poison are in conflict with each other. Although there will be some relief, it will also bring out the medicinal properties of two minds."
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan secretly said it was a fluke. Fortunately, Gongsun Zhi was a hypocrite with a beastly face and insisted on playing the same trick as a matchmaker, so he didn't discover the mystery.
If this Gongsun Zhi was just like him, a vicious person who was not scrupulous about meat and vegetables and took advantage of others, I was afraid that Xiao Longnu would really be poisoned by him.
Being so frightened, Chen Xuan quickly picked up Xiao Longnu and took her out.
He had already arranged for Gongsun Lu'e to take over in the valley. As long as he took Xiao Longnu out, Gongsun Lu'e could take him out of the valley.
He just didn't want to, he had already made a plan here, but he didn't expect that footsteps suddenly came from outside the house, and then he heard someone shouting.
"Master Gongsun Valley! We are here to say goodbye!"
When Chen Xuan heard this voice, he frowned and said something bad to himself.
