It was daybreak, and Zhang Zhiyue had lost all energy from crying, and fell asleep leaning on the bed in a daze. Zhang Shennong and Du Heng sat at the table, sighing.
Come to think of it, three people and one snake went to Fei Snake Cave, but now only two people came back. Although the ambergris was brought back, the person who used the ambergris could not come back.
Zhang Shennong and Du Heng looked sad and their eyes were red, probably because they had not slept all night.
Zhang Zhiyue still clutched the ambergris tightly in her hand, refusing to give it to anyone who asked for it, and just fell asleep like that.
"Squeak--" The door of the bamboo house slowly opened, and Su Ling, who had become a green man, walked in from the outside.
For a moment, Du Heng and Zhang Shennong didn't recognize it. Du Heng thought it was a green-haired monster from somewhere, so he picked up a knife and protected Zhang Shennong behind him, and was about to chop him down.
Su Ling panted and waved his hands, feebly saying: "It's me... Su Ling!"
"Cang--" There was a sound of the knife falling to the ground. Du Heng ran over and picked up Su Ling. He looked left and right and confirmed that it was indeed Su Ling. Then he grinned and said, "Haha, I knew you."
The boy is blessed with great fortune, how could he feed the snake? This time it’s good, this time it’s good!” As he spoke, he patted Su Ling hard on the back a few times with his thick hand.
Su Ling grinned when he slapped me, and kept saying: "Pat me lightly, pat me lightly, and I won't turn into snake dung. If you pat me a few more times, I will turn into a pancake."
Zhang Zhiyue, who had fallen asleep, suddenly sat up, looked into the room, and saw Su Ling covered in green snake blood at a glance. She jumped out of bed desperately, without even putting on her shoes, and hugged Su Ling.
Stop and burst into tears.
Su Lingru was shocked by the electric shock and smelled the delicate fragrance coming from the girl in green. She didn't know what to do for a moment, so she could only pat her back gently and said: "Sister Zhiyue, don't cry, I didn't come back well."
What?"
Zhang Shennong saw that his granddaughter lost all her reserve. She blushed and coughed a few times. Only then did Zhang Zhiyue realize that she had lost her composure. She hurriedly stepped away from Su Ling's arms, wiped her tears, and said with a blush on her face: "I was watching.
He came back and didn't die trying to save me, so I don't owe him anything. I'm most afraid of owing favors to others..."
Zhang Shennong twisted his beard and laughed.
Just as Su Ling was about to speak, she suddenly felt cold sweat pouring from her heart and all over her body. Her eyesight turned black, her breathing was not smooth, and she fell straight down.
Zhang Zhiyue was originally happy, but seeing Su Ling like this, she panicked and hugged Su Ling again, shouting sadly: "Su Ling, what's wrong with you?"
Su Ling used her last bit of strength to say, "I feel so uncomfortable..." After saying that, she passed out.
Zhang Shennong's face changed slightly and he said loudly: "No, the power of Huitian Wan is about to wear off, Ah Yue, Ambergris!"
............
The sunlight was warm and shining in the room through the window of the bamboo house. Su Ling was half-leaning in front of the bed, squinting her eyes slightly, listening to the tinkling spring water and the sweet chirping of birds in the valley, and suddenly felt that time was being swept away.
The time lasted for a long time, and I was so carefree, and the troubled times seemed far away from me.
Since returning from the Snake Cave that day, ten days have passed in a flash. During these ten days, Su Ling has never been more relaxed and calm. In addition to drinking medicine to recuperate his body, with the help of Zhang Zhiyue, he sat on the grass outside and watched Du
Keep punching and kicking, or simply watching the swaying flowers and butterflies flying all over the mountain.
Except when Zhang Zhiyue went back to her room at night, she stayed with Su Ling almost the whole day, feeding him medicine. She was afraid that the medicine would be bitter, so she gave Su Ling some candied fruit made by herself. She looked at how Su Ling liked it.
Smiling sweetly.
Sometimes, when the moon is shining brightly, Su Ling, Du Heng and Zhang Shennong will sit on the grass, make tea and fruits, and watch Zhang Zhiyue playing the flute and dancing under the moonlight.
The sound of the flute was melodious and sweet, just like the sounds of nature. The beautiful dancing posture of the girl in green, under the full moon, was full of green and dreamlike. Su Ling was fascinated by it.
Su Ling understood in her heart that the fate of the woman in front of her seemed to be really connected to hers, and they were no longer separated.
The woman who risked her life in the snake cave, the woman who hugged Su Ling and cried desperately for the rest of her life after seeing him, the woman who grinded the medicine into powder every day and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead without stopping.
The woman, the woman who looked at him eating the candied fruits she made with her own hands and smiled sweetly every day.
It seems that in an instant, it is the most beautiful eternity.
He has her in his heart, and she also has him.
Su Ling was already well. If Zhang Shennong and Zhang Zhiyue hadn't insisted on letting him stay in bed for a while, Su Ling would have gotten up and started punching and kicking Du Heng. After all these things, Su Ling felt that he would be able to do it a few times
This formula may be useful at critical moments.
Unknowingly, he had already added Zhang Zhiyue and Zhang Shennong to the people he wanted to protect. Perhaps, they, his parents and the Du Heng family were his entire world.
On this day, after Zhang Shennong checked Su Ling's body, he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes and said with a smile: "You are really blessed. The blood stasis on your chest has been eliminated. Now your qi and blood are unobstructed. It's really
It’s healed.”
Su Ling hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you Mr. Zhang and Sister Zhiyue for your careful care, otherwise I would have been dead in the grave."
Su Ling and Zhang Zhiyue looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.
Du Heng was happy, took the knife and said: "Since you are well, I will go out to hunt some game and come back. Let's have a good time in the evening!" Then he went out.
night.
Zhang Zhiyue was holding a large basin, with most of the wild venison in the basin, which was full of fragrant aroma. Zhang Zhiyue placed the meat on the table. Su Ling, Zhang Shennong, and Du Heng then sat around and the four of them pushed cups and changed cups.
, while drinking and tasting venison.
The venison was extremely fragrant. Du Heng took a big bite of it and couldn't help but praise: "Mess Zhiyue is so good at her craftsmanship. If anyone marries Sister Zhiyue in the future, I'm afraid they will be blessed with such a good taste!"
As he spoke, he looked at Su Ling teasingly. Su Ling put his head in the rice bowl.

Bury, just do not know.
Zhang Zhiyue tore off a piece of deer leg, threw it into Du Heng's bowl with a loud thump, and said shyly: "I can't keep your mouth occupied even if I eat meat!"
Everyone laughed.
Everyone was eating happily, when Zhang Zhiyue suddenly stopped her chopsticks, with tears in her eyes, and murmured: "It would be great if Xiao Qing was here. Besides the brown mink, his favorite food is venison."
.....”
Su Ling heard this and said hurriedly: "Xiao Qing should be rescued by that heroine. I think she is eating happily somewhere now."
Zhang Zhiyue nodded, and Su Ling patted her shoulder gently to comfort her.
Zhang Zhiyue then sighed and said: "I hope, Xiaoqing, like me, has no parents. I hope it won't suffer too much."
When Zhang Shennong heard this, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes dimmed slightly.
Su Ling changed the topic, suddenly remembered something, then turned to the bedside, turned over it, found the crystal clear viper gallbladder, held it in his hand, and walked towards everyone.
Zhang Shennong glanced at it and said in disbelief: "This... this is the gallbladder of an adder!"
Su Ling nodded and said, "Mr., you have good eyesight! That day, the heroine gave this thing to me and said that you would know how to use it at a glance. I just remembered it today. Mr., please take a look at it."
Zhang Shennong nodded and took the adder gallbladder. After looking at it for a long time, he exclaimed: "What a treasure, what a treasure. The world is going crazy for this thing. How many people dream of it. Even getting one or two layers of adder gallbladder is a great blessing.
And Su Ling, you got this complete viper's gallbladder in one go!"
Su Ling smiled and said: "This thing is useless in my hand. Since the old gentleman likes it, I will give it to the old gentleman."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhiyue hurriedly said: "Su Ling, you have too many treasures, and so does I. You really took them all."
Zhang Shennong stroked his beard and laughed. He glanced at Zhang Zhiyue and Su Ling and said, "Ah Yue, it's nothing, why don't you start telling others about me?"
When Zhang Zhiyue heard this, her pretty face flushed, and she hesitated: "I'm just looking for reason..."
Zhang Shennong held the crystal clear viper gallbladder in his palm and asked tentatively: "Su Ling, are you serious about giving me the entire viper gallbladder?"
Su Ling nodded and said without any hesitation: "The old man is the Holy Hand of the Apricot Altar. This thing can only be used with you. It would be good for the old man to save one more poor person!"
Zhang Shennong nodded and said approvingly: "Su Ling, at such a young age, you pretend to care about the common people in your heart. I really saw you right, and it's not in vain that I spent so much effort to save you from death."
Su Ling blushed and said: "How can I have such a big heart? I am just a common people in distress. Along the way from Wanyang to Nanzhang, I have seen too many suffering people, and I feel really sad."
Zhang Shennong nodded, as if he had made a decision, stood up, and walked out. When he returned a short while later, he already had a sharp dagger in his hand.
Zhang Shennong didn't hesitate anymore, he slashed the dagger towards the viper's gall on the table, and with three swipes, the viper's gall was divided into three pieces.
One piece is very large, one piece is smaller, and the other piece is very small.
Su Ling asked in confusion: "Did the old gentleman cut up the viper's gallbladder to make it easier to seal it?"
Zhang Shennong smiled and said: "Of course not. This viper's gallbladder is your opportunity. How can I take it all by myself? Isn't it greedy?"
After that, he picked up the smallest piece and put it in his hand and said: "This is an old piece..."
"This is too little..." Su Ling said.
Zhang Shennong waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, that's enough!" After that, he put the medium-sized piece in Zhang Zhiyue's hand and said, "This belongs to Ah Yue!"
Zhang Zhiyue giggled and said, "There's still mine."
Zhang Shennong picked up the large piece and said, "Su Ling, this belongs to you and your brother Du Heng." As he said this, he pushed the large piece to Su Ling.
Su Ling hurriedly shook his head and said: "Old sir, I can't help but use it. I also sold this thing for money. Wouldn't it be a waste if you give it to me?"
Zhang Shennong seemed to have heard a joke, and laughed loudly: "What did you say? You took the gallbladder of an adder and sold it for money? You can't imagine that this thing is priceless, and those people in the world are willing to kill people and buy it for this thing, and fight to the death? You
If you go out with such a big piece, I'm afraid you won't know how you died before you even get to the pawn shop."
When Su Ling and Du Heng heard this, they were shocked. Su Ling hurriedly said: "Then I'm even more worried. It's better for the old gentleman to keep it."
Zhang Shennong looked at Su Ling with burning eyes and said after a while: "Su Ling, this thing will be of great benefit to you if you use it. This is a great blessing for you!"
Su Ling was a little puzzled and said: "Good fortune? Please tell me clearly, sir."
Zhang Shennong looked at Su Ling again and said, "Su Ling, how old are you this year?"
Su Ling said: "Sixteen years have passed. After this summer, we will be seventeen."
Zhang Shennong then nodded and said, "It's just as I expected, Su Ling, you must have had a hard life before."
Su Ling said with a helpless smile: "That's natural. My home is remote and it's not easy to get into the city. I just catch some fish and shrimps to feed my belly. As you know, you always have to rely on the weather for food. Sometimes it's better to have three meals a day. If it's not good,
, I also have one meal every three days. In addition, I have been weak since I was a child and always get sick, so..."
Zhang Shennong took over and said: "So your congenital deficiencies have caused you to suffer from acquired deficiencies, insufficient Qi, and turbid impurities in your body, so you have a sallow complexion and thin skin. Although you are almost seventeen years old, your figure looks like you are fifteen."
Su Ling blushed and said, "It is indeed as the old gentleman said."
Zhang Shennong nodded and said: "These days, I always hear you say that you want to learn some moves from Du Heng?"
Su Ling nodded and said, "In these troubled times, it's always good to learn something to defend yourself."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Zhang Shennong nodded and said: "But you are born with deficiencies. To put it bluntly, it is not easy to survive until now. How can your body withstand the load caused by punching and kicking? Du Heng's moves, although useful, are also
The most basic fighting skills, if you meet those masters, you may not be able to pass them on. You have to learn his moves. With your current muscles and bones, you simply can't bear it. You can't even learn this. If in the future, you
If you have the opportunity to get advice from an expert, given your basic skills, you are simply asking for your own death. Not to mention learning it, even the method of breathing in and out will be unbearable for you!"
When Su Ling heard this, she couldn't help being startled. Zhang Zhiyue was afraid that Su Ling would be discouraged, so she hurriedly said: "Master, what you said is that Su Ling wants to learn from that? We are not surprised!"
Zhang Shennong smiled and said: "Su Ling, do you know that there are high and low levels of warriors in this world?"
Su Ling shook his head, and Zhang Shennong said: "People like Du Heng are only physically strong and know a few moves. They can only be used for self-defense. They are not a warrior at all. As for the classification of warrior levels, I am in Xingtan. The specifics are
I don’t know much about it, but I just know that today’s real martial arts, in addition to one’s own roots, also emphasizes the use of one’s own breath and the breath of heaven and earth, only then can one truly enter the martial arts path. Su Ling, do you know the Wushuang Tianji Duan Bai
Floor?"
Su Ling nodded and said, "I heard from an old friend that the White House was once invincible in the world and almost became a god."
Zhang Shennong said: "Yes, Duan Bailou once was rampant in the world, and one person could defeat ten thousand people. Why? He was actually the pinnacle of martial arts! He absorbed the energy of his own body and the world of heaven and earth into each other, so he achieved such achievements.
, there are several levels of martial arts people, but I don’t understand the specific details and subtleties. If you, Su Ling, have great luck, one day you can enter Lingwucheng Jian’an and meet the world’s number one martial arts master, Sword Master Jing Wuji, maybe
You can get a glimpse of it. You must know that Ling Wu is the world's martial arts master, and the leader of Ling Wu belongs to Jian'an. The children of Jian'an are all powerful in martial arts. Looking at the whole world, they are emperors, generals, and Lingwu City.
For the sake of fear, Lingwu City is independent of the various warlords. Jing Wuji, with one person and one sword, protects the safety of the entire Lingwu City. No one in the world can compete with him!"
"Sword Master? Wuji? Master Yi? Luaaaa?" Su Ling muttered softly.
Zhang Shennong asked in confusion: "Who is Master Yi? Is he also a master of swordsmanship?"
Su Ling concealed a smile and said: "The old gentleman told me this, I don't know if I have the luck to meet those legendary people..."
Zhang Shennong chuckled and said: "It's just that I know that Su Ling, you are a person with big dreams. In this troubled world, you want to make a breakthrough. But with your complex physique now, it's really time to fight and kill the enemy."
, I’m afraid it will be difficult to protect yourself!”
Before Su Ling could ask, Doctor Zhang said again: "But with this viper gallbladder, these are no longer problems!"
When Su Ling and Zhang Zhiyue heard this, they hurriedly blurted out: "Does this viper's gall have such an effect?"
Zhang Shennong rolled his eyes at his granddaughter, Zhang Zhiyue's face turned red again, and said: "I'm just getting older, and my words are so long-winded!"
Zhang Shennong chuckled and said: "This snake bile can cleanse the muscles and forge the marrow, remove all the messy qi in the body, and rebuild a strong body. When the time comes, you will be reborn, and all the martial arts in the world will be able to learn as much as you want."
.Of course, how much you comprehend, when you enter the Tao, and the opportunities all depend on your understanding!"
Su Ling heard the words and said: "This is true. If it is true, please ask the old gentleman to do something!"
Zhang Shennong sighed and said, "It's just..."
Zhang Zhiyue frowned and said: "It's just...just what? Master, please hurry up and say it, I'm so anxious!"
Zhang Shennong glanced at Zhang Zhiyue with some anger and said: "You girl, I usually ask you to read more medical books. It's better for you. You don't calm down all day long. After learning, one bottle is less than half the bottle. If you read more books,
, is there any reason why I don’t know?”
Su Ling hurriedly excused Zhang Zhiyue: "Old sir, Sister Zhiyue is a girl after all. Those ancient medical books are a bit boring..."
Zhang Shennong laughed and said: "You two are singing along, and you are trying to squeeze me out!"
Their faces suddenly turned red.
Zhang Shennong smiled and said: "It's just that this snake gallbladder is a product of the essence of the sun and the moon, and it is in the body of a snake, and its nature is extremely violent. If the snake gallbladder is used as medicine, the side effects are unbearable for ordinary people!"
Zhang Zhiyue and Su Ling said in unison: "What are the side effects?"
Zhang Shennong said: "The medicinal properties of adder gallbladder are inherently violent, and it is difficult for an ordinary human body to bear it. It also has the effect of relaxing the muscles and forging the bones. This pain is ten times more painful! If you take it, it will destroy the heart and dig out the internal organs."
Not to mention the pain, the main effect of the medicine is on the bones. For people who take the medicine, every bone in the body will be scratched like ten thousand steel knives. It is just like breaking bones and scattering ashes. Other than that, it is like tens of thousands of steel knives.
, this kind of pain will make people mentally collapse, and I am afraid that before they have fully worked, they will not be able to support themselves, and they will go crazy and commit suicide in the worst cases."
When Su Ling and Zhang Zhiyue heard this, they both remained silent.
Zhang Shennong looked at Su Ling calmly and said: "It's just that if you don't use the viper's gallbladder, you won't be in such inhuman pain, but you are not born with enough talent and may not live long. With your body, you will not be able to live long.
Maybe you can hope for more years."
After saying this, Zhang Shennong took a sip of wine and then said slowly: "You have to think about the pros and cons. Whether to use the viper's gall or not, this decision is yours to make!"
Su Ling and Zhang Zhiyue were both speechless for a while, and even Du Heng also became bored, looking quite struggling.
Suddenly, Su Ling and Zhang Zhiyue raised their heads at the same time and said at the same time,
"Yes!" "No need!"
Su Ling had already made up her mind, so she put aside all distracting thoughts and only spoke in words. However, Zhang Zhiyue's face was full of worry and pain, and she said categorically no.
But when Zhang Zhiyue heard Su Ling's words and saw his resolute face, her heart tightened and she said loudly: "Su Ling, are you crazy? How can you bear the pain of ten thousand knives gnawing at your bones?!"
