A rare opportunity

The pride in their hearts finally overcame the hunger in their stomachs. Although Ma Ji and others were already starving, they finally did not bend down.

The three ghosts of Blind Mountain were furious when they saw the arrogant faces of Ma Ji and others. They had just had a sudden impulse and wanted to play a trick on them, but they lost their temper when they saw their expressions. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they took them back to their rooms.

Li Yu was somewhat puzzled by the malicious looks of Ma Ji and others. What he didn't know was that he had become the culprit for their starvation!

After making sure that the three Blind Mountain ghosts had entered their own rooms, Ma Ji immediately winked at the other three. The three understood and rushed towards Li Yu at the same time! He closed the door tightly with his backhand and turned around to pounce on Li Yu!

Before Li Yu could react, his neck felt numb again! He knew something was wrong, but it was too late to shout. He could only hold his head with both hands and face the violent beatings and kicks!

This time, Ma Ji and his men had learned from their last lesson, and although they were ruthless, they used just the right amount of force, causing Li Yu unbearable pain without leaving any scars.

When the four of them were fighting vigorously, they suddenly heard a creaking sound and the door was pushed open from the outside. Ma Ji and the other three were so frightened that they turned around and looked at the door!

The old woman was holding a plate of steamed buns and looking at them in astonishment! Seeing that it was not the three ghosts of Blind Mountain, Ma Ji and others breathed a sigh of relief, but they still looked at the old woman vigilantly.

The old woman frowned, walked into the room, put down the steamed bun in her hand, walked to Li Yu's side, and leaned over to check Li Yu's injuries in the dim candlelight. At this time, Li Yu had fainted from the pain and collapsed to the ground.

Ma Ji and the other four were too cruel! On the surface, there seemed to be no injuries. But they all hit the flesh and bones! Although the skin and flesh remained intact, the injuries were in the tendons and bones! Not to mention that Li Yu was a mortal, even if he was a cultivator, he would probably have to lie down for ten days or half a month to recover. If he was not treated in time, he might be disabled for life!

A trace of displeasure flashed across the old woman's eyes, and she immediately fumbled to take out a pill from her body and stuffed it into Li Yu's mouth. Then she straightened his body, sat cross-legged behind him, and put her hand on his back.

Although Ma Ji and the other three were not very skilled, they were very knowledgeable! They knew that the old woman was using her inner strength to heal Li Yu, and they were all a little surprised!

You must know that without a deep foundation, ordinary cultivators simply cannot use their internal energy to heal others! Besides, this kind of healing is time-consuming and laborious, and will consume a lot of the internal energy of the rescuer. If it is not a close friend, no one will easily help.

As soon as the old woman came in, she treated Li Yu's wounds without hesitation. Could it be that they had some kind of relationship? Could it be that Li Yu was also from Blind Mountain? Thinking of this, they couldn't help but break out in cold sweats!

They couldn't help but retreat quietly, leaning against the wall and trembling!

Ma Ji and the others saw the white mist coming out of the old woman's head and thought: This old woman didn't hesitate to spend a lot of her inner strength to heal Li Yu's wounds, it seems that their relationship must be unusual! Therefore, they were even more afraid!

It took a full stick of incense for the old woman to retract her arm. After taking a breath, she stood up, turned around and slowly walked out of the room without even looking at Ma Ji and the other three.

Watching the old woman slowly walk away, Ma Ji and the other three looked at each other in disbelief! Could there be such a good person in this blind mountain? Would she just let them go?

They couldn't help but believe it, because the old woman not only didn't punish them, she also left them a plate of snow-white steamed buns!

Looking at the plate of steamed buns, the four of them couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva. But they were afraid that the old woman would come back, so they didn't dare to get close, and just stared at the plate of steamed buns!

After a long while, one of them couldn't help but said to Ma Ji:

"Junior Brother Ma, look..."

Ma Ji couldn't resist the temptation of the steamed bun, so he bit his teeth and said:

"Never mind! Let's eat first!"

He immediately walked to the plate left by the old woman, reached out and took a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth! After taking a bite of the steamed bun, he felt that this was the most delicious food he had ever eaten in his life! He couldn't help but swallow the whole bun in two or three bites, and reached out to take another one.

The other three people saw how deliciously he was eating, and their throats moved up and down. But since Ma Ji didn't move his mouth, they didn't dare to do anything rash.

Ma Ji ate four steamed buns before he stopped. He burped and nodded to the other three. When the three saw him, they immediately reached out and grabbed two steamed buns each and wolfed them down!

In a flash, a whole plate of more than twenty rice bowl-sized buns was devoured by them! The three of them licked their lips, feeling like they wanted more!

After filling their stomachs, their brains began to work! Immediately, several people gathered together and discussed in whispers!

Who is this old woman? Is she related to Li Yu?

Finally, I came to the conclusion that no matter whether he had any relationship with the old woman, it would be better not to mess with him from now on!

Although the old woman helped Li Yu heal his wounds, she did not unblock his sealed acupuncture points. Firstly, she was probably afraid that Li Yu would scream and alarm the others on the blind mountain. Secondly, she also wanted to relieve him of some pain.

The old woman did not untie Li Yu's acupuncture points, and Ma Ji and others did not dare to untie them casually. Firstly, they were afraid that Li Yu would make a big noise and alarm the three ghosts of Blind Mountain. Secondly, they were afraid that the old woman would come back.

Besides, there would be no danger if the acupuncture points were sealed. Generally, they would be automatically unsealed after twelve hours. Even if it was less than twelve hours before dawn, unsealing them at that time would not affect his actions.

After a day of hard work, Ma Ji and the others were really tired. Although they were all cultivators, they would not feel tired after doing such a small amount of work. But they were not only physically exhausted, but most importantly, they were mentally exhausted! They were always looking forward to someone coming to rescue them, and they were always worried that the people in Blind Mountain would take action against them. Therefore, they all felt exhausted and fell asleep soon after lying down!

When Liu Lin's sharp and piercing voice rang out, Ma Ji and the other three were awakened from their sleep. They stood up in a hurry and ran quickly to the door.

Ma Ji ran halfway when he remembered what happened last night. He turned around hastily, but was surprised to find that Li Yu had also turned over and sat up, checking his body in confusion!

Li Yu remembered the beating he had suffered before he passed out, but now it seemed that not only did he not have any new wounds, but his old wounds also seemed to have healed a lot. It seemed like he had just had a dream last night!

When he looked up, he met Ma Ji's surprised gaze. He thought that he had helped him heal his wounds, so he smiled at him gratefully, stood up and wanted to bow to him.

Ma Ji, who was so frightened, shook his hands repeatedly and pointed outside the door.
