Looking back

When Xiaoyi heard his words, her eyes widened instantly.

Yang Kang was puzzled at first, but later he understood where his panic came from.A few days ago, Xiaoyi disobeyed Huang Yaoshi and took Huazheng to leave Peach Blossom Island. When Xiaoyi and Huazheng escaped by boat, Huang Rong and Guo Jing were still on the island.Therefore, Xiaoyi thought that if he went to the two of them to ask for scriptures, he could only go back to the island first, which meant that he would face Huang Yaoshi's wrath when he returned to the island.

On the same day, Xiaoyi said that breaking his legs and kicking him out of the island was not a threat of anger, but a desperate one. With Huang Yaoshi's temperament, the punishment would only be more severe.Yang Kang said to him, "Your senior sister and Guo Jing have already left the island, you just need to inquire and wait on the shore, they may go to Jiaxing, or they may come to Lin'an."

Xiao Yi looked a little disbelieving, "How do you know they are not on the island? Didn't they all leave when you left the island?" Yang Kang said, "Your master misunderstood Guo Jing, rejected him as a son-in-law and drove him away, your senior sister Will you be obedient?"

"I'm not afraid to see Master. I've turned my back on the teacher, so I can't hide forever." Xiaoyi only thought that Yang Kang thought he didn't dare to go back to the island. Seeing his misunderstanding, Yang Kang shook his head and said, "You really went to the island to find them, but instead Missed the delay."

After Xiaoyi left, Yang Kang stayed by Huazheng's side all the time. Fortunately, he was able to pay someone to take care of chores, wash and change clothes.He mainly does three things, Yungong helps Huazheng adjust her inner breath, meditates to recover her inner strength, and takes a small spoon to pour the ginseng soup into her mouth bit by bit so that she can swallow it with the body fluid.

During this period, Huazheng often fell asleep, and when he woke up in the middle, he just stared at Yang Kang's lips moving, but his voice seemed hoarse and he couldn't make a sound, and he passed out again after a short time.After more than ten days like this, Xiaoyi came back a few times in the middle, and there was no news of Guo Jing and Huang Rong. He also said that he had seen the mute servant who came to the shore to buy, and learned that Guo and Huang had eloped off the island, and Huang Yaoshi also left the island to look for them. daughter.

These news made Yang Kang feel mixed. As long as the two of them leave the island, there is a [-]% chance that they will meet on the shore. The only thing that is uncertain is whether they will still live on the deserted island. Will the drama happen.If everything remains the same, then they will have to wait for ten days and a half months before they come ashore.

The weather is getting hotter and the flowers and trees are more and more prosperous, but the time of the two of them is passing away day after day due to illness. Although Yang Kang seizes the opportunity of waking up every time Huazheng tries his best to feed some sugar water rice porridge, but she still Thin out.Yang Kang was also restless in worry and anxiety. What he was most worried about was that if the healing methods in the Nine Yin Manual were useless to her injuries, what would happen?

He was burning with worry, and continued to think about other solutions. Perhaps it would be safer to find Yideng at this time, but where is the practice place of Master Yideng?Before Yideng became a monk, he was the king of Dali. If his practice was in Yunnan, would it be too late for him to rush to him with his zither on his back?

Yang Kang saw her pained expression still showing in a coma, and his heart was pierced.Did Huang Yaoshi also feel this way when he watched Feng Heng's life slowly passing away, with all his kung fu but powerless?

It is still rainy in early summer, and tick-tock adds to people's irritability. Only the swaying candlelight through the red gauze lampshade brings half a foot of warmth. A piece of candle in the lamp burns to only half an inch, and the candle tears overflow, and the wick Limp down.Seeing that the sky was about to dawn at this time, Yang Kang wanted to pull away his hand to extinguish the candles. At this moment, there was a noisy voice from the gate far away, and someone in the middle shouted loudly, "Those with knives and swords, those with wounds!" , take them all away!"

A person in charge of Wazi stepped forward to flatter him, "Governor, why is this?" Then one person replied, sounding like an officer and soldier in the lead, "The assassination of Shi Cheng the month before yesterday has not yet ended, and there is another bold assassin The idea has been brought to the palace. The whole city will be searched! Anyone with weapons will be taken for interrogation, and anyone with injuries must not be missed. The pharmacy is also guarded and people are not allowed to grab medicine until the assassin is caught and questioned. !"

Yang Kang didn't have time to think about the reason, he flipped off the lampshade with two fingers, and knocked out the candle with another finger.He wrapped Huazheng tightly with a quilt, hugged it horizontally, and when he turned out the window, he hooked his feet on the eaves and landed on the roof.He was laying down on the roof when he heard someone kick the door open and rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

"Where are the people in this house?" the leading officer asked, and someone answered, "It looks like someone has slept on the quilt, but it is cold. It must have been away for a long time." The old lady of the meal stammered and replied, "I don't know, maybe...the guest brought the child...back...to take away."

But Yang Kang knew that he couldn't stay here any longer. The officers and soldiers knew about their decoction and grasping of medicine these few days, and they just fooled it for the time being.He turned back into the room, collected a few necessities, and left over the wall with Huazheng in his arms.At this time, the sky was not fully bright, and he walked along the alleys, and saw officers and soldiers wantonly hunting everywhere in the city, and many people were wearing shackles, shouting grievances and being driven away by the officers and soldiers.When they sneaked all the way to the city gate, they saw that the city gate was locked tightly. The merchant porters who got up early to leave the city complained loudly why they did not open the city gate.

Yang Kang was sure that the one who assassinated Shi Miyuan was his old cynical master Qiu Chuji, but the situation at this time made him a little puzzled. With such a big posture and the words of some officers and soldiers, it was a certainty that someone sneaked into the palace to assassinate last night. .Although Qiu Chuji often scolded Jun Song for being stupid, if someone wanted to overthrow the Zhao family, he would not hesitate to denounce it as treason, let alone assassinate the emperor, so the assassin last night must be someone else.

Yang Kang's heart sank, thinking that Wanyan Honglie had said that day that he came to the Southern Song Dynasty for another important matter, could it be that he meant to assassinate the emperor of the Song Dynasty?But the current emperor Song Ningzong Zhao Kuo's early ambitions have long been worn out, and he has surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, so what's the benefit of assassinating him?

Just as he was thinking about it, he felt a movement in his arms, and Hua Zheng's weak voice came, "Zhou Botong's disturbance in the palace...it's a plot...Guo Jing is also here..."

Yang Kang was overjoyed, "Then where can I find them?" Huazheng could barely perceive the outside world even in a coma, and she had woken up early in the toss of climbing over the wall, but she was still unable to speak, and it was difficult to speak at this time. With great reluctance, every single word had to be exhausted, she only uttered the words "Niujia Village", then stopped talking and closed her eyes tightly again.

After Guo Jing and Huang Rong left the palace, they went to the former residence of the Guo and Yang families in Niujia Village?When Yang Kang thought about it, he felt that it made sense, so he went to the south of the city, found a section of the city wall with few people, climbed out, and went straight to Niujia Village.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, it was already bright, the rain had stopped, and the sky was just right.Yang Kang carried Huazheng to the silly aunt's house, and was about to enter when he heard someone talking inside, in Mandarin with a strong local accent, "The watermelon in our Niujia Village is sweet and crisp, girl, you will know it once you taste it."

He was a little puzzled, but when he opened the door, he saw a farmer coming out of the shop with an empty load. The farmer looked up and saw him blocking the door with an unconscious girl in his arms. He was also very surprised, but he didn't want to cause trouble after all, so he nodded bypassed and left.

Yang Kang walked into the house and saw watermelons lying all over the store. The girl who bent over to carry the melons in the middle raised her head and called out, "You? Sister Huazheng?"

Huang Rong's pretty face was still stained with tears. Yang Kang remembered those officers and soldiers calling out the wounded, so he asked, "Where's Brother Guo?" Huang Rong's eyes turned red when he heard that, and he said, "Brother Jing is injured." Wan led Yang Kang into the back room, only to see Guo Jing's eyes closed tightly, his face white as paper, several spots of blood on his body were bright red, but he didn't know where the injury was.Guo Jing opened his eyes and saw that it was Yang Kang and Hua Zheng. He was very pleasantly surprised. When he wanted to get up, he groaned in pain and sat back down. Obviously, he was also seriously injured.

Yang Kang signaled Guo Jing not to move, and asked Huang Rong, "You were in the palace last night? Who hurt Brother Guo? Is it the bodyguard?"

"It's Ouyang Feng!" Huang Rong said angrily, "I shouldn't have saved him when he was in the sea."

"Why did you go to the palace?" Although Yang Kang knew that the plot was destined, he didn't know how the two groups met on a narrow road. He only heard Huang Rong answer, "Qi Gong is greedy and wants to steal the mandarin ducks of the emperor's old man." We went with him because of the five treasures, but we met that scoundrel Ouyang Feng, he went to the palace to... don't know what evil he did!"

Yang Kang noticed her pause, and knew that Ouyang Feng must be helping Wanyan Honglie steal Yue Fei's art of war—Wu Mu's suicide note!But Huang Rong thought that he was raised by Wanyan Honglie, she was afraid that his heart would still be towards his adoptive father, so she kept the matter secret.Yang Kang smiled from the bottom of his heart, and didn't expose it. He asked Hong Qigong again, and learned that Hong Qigong was hit by Ouyang Feng's poisonous snake, and all his efforts were wasted in forcing the poison. Although Qigong was left in the forbidden palace, With Zhou Botong taking care of her, there must be no danger.

In the end, Huang Rong timidly asked, "What happened to Sister Huazheng?" It was her father who hurt Huazheng, but it was Guo Jing who exposed her, so there was a trace of guilt in her expression.

Yang Kang had already put Huazheng on the bed, and sighed, "The remaining poison is not cleared, and the internal force is washed away. I don't know how long it can last. I came to you to ask if there is a cure for injuries in the Nine Yin Manual." .”

Huang Rong looked at Hua Zheng with a worried expression on her face, "There is a method, I'm afraid she has missed the best time for treatment. Brother Jing said that there is a cure in the Nine Yin Manual, but you need to find a quiet place In this place, the two followed the scriptures and practiced luck at the same time. Each of the two counteracted with one palm, and used the other's skill to help the injured person heal. During this period, for seven days and seven nights, the two palms could not If you leave for a while, you must never say a word to a third person, let alone stand up and walk for half a step. If someone comes to disturb you, it will be dangerous."

After Huang Rong finished speaking, her face was very troubled, "I bought those melons to prepare Brother Jing and I to hide in that secret room, so that we don't have to leave when we are healing, and we don't have to worry about hunger and thirst. The secret room can accommodate four people, but each other Can't be disturbed..."

Yang Kang understands her concerns, if one party has a problem, the other couple will be affected if they are disturbed, at least all previous efforts will be wasted, and at worst it will hurt their lives.

Guo Jing heard from the side, "Ronger! Sister Huazheng was injured by your father because I dragged her down. How could you drive them away." Huang Rong's eyes turned red, "I didn't drive..." Yang Kang hurriedly smoothed things over, "Heal the wounds. If you want to arrange a good place, you must first think of a foolproof method. There is no rush, Brother Guo, tell us the method of healing first, and then think of a way."

Guo Jing nodded, and when he was about to recite, Hua Zheng suddenly said, "Wait a minute." Yang Kang knew that she was awake all the time, but he didn't have enough strength to intervene. Seeing her call, he hurried over, Hua Zheng said in a weak voice, " Needle."

Those silver needles as thin as a cow's awn can be fed poison to make jade bee needles, and can also be used for acupuncture. Knowing that Huazheng always puts needles in his purse, Yang Kangsu hurriedly took out a few and handed them over.To perform acupuncture, you need to hang your wrists in the air. Huazheng's hands are weak, so Yang Kang uses his arms to support him, letting Huazheng's fingers lean on them for strength. Several acupuncture points on both arms.

After the silver needle was pierced, it was gradually covered with a layer of black, which was caused by the residual poison in the body, but this acupuncture point was not for detoxification, but to use acupuncture to forcibly restrain the true energy, and forcibly stimulate the meridians so as to concentrate and refresh, so as not to miss listening I have learned the key to healing, although this move can improve the potential in a short period of time, it can't last for a long time, and this move is only done because of the emergency.After all the needles were inserted, Hua Zheng motioned to Guo Jing to start reciting the "Chapter of Healing the Wounds" in the first volume of "Nine Yin Manual".

Guo Jing recited it slowly, and the other three listened carefully. This chapter on healing wounds was about how to use Qigong to rectify the true energy and heal internal injuries if you were injured by Qigong. Guo Jing was injured by Ouyang Feng's Toad Gong. The zheng was broken by Huang Yaoshi's palm force, which is the right way to treat the disease.After listening to Guo Jing recite it, and then discuss it together, they all have good foundations, after a while, they sorted out the healing method clearly.

Yang Kangxi couldn't help himself, waiting here for Guo Jing's Nine Yin Manual is indeed correct. According to this method, it is easy to treat Huazheng's internal injuries. After the internal injuries are cured, he will take medicine to detoxify, and his life will be safe. He only needs to take care of it in the future It is not impossible to recover martial arts.

He looked up at Huang Rong, and now the only question left was where to heal his wounds. Huang Rong had an idea when she rolled her eyes, "I'll go buy a bamboo curtain." When she came back with a bamboo curtain, she hung the curtain in the middle of the secret room to divide it into two places, and the rest of the people would understand, so that the two parties could not see each other, and as long as there was not too much noise, they would not disturb each other.Huazheng thought that he was inspired by the hope of survival, and his mood became brighter instantly. He whispered to Yang Kang with a smile, "If Rong'er goes into real estate, she will definitely make a fortune."

Seeing the smile on her face and the intimacy in her tone as before, Yang Kang couldn't help feeling flustered, but Huazheng's expression froze after he finished speaking, as if remembering the indiscriminate words when he was driving him away before, he became annoyed again, and turned his head go.Yang Kang laughed angrily, and said to her, "My aunt, please heal your injury quickly, and I will listen to you from now on, okay?"

The four of them entered the secret room, sat down according to their positions, stretched out one palm each, and pressed against each other, and worked hard according to the heart method and luck in the Nine Yin Manual.Yang Kang practiced according to the law.Isn't it just seven days and seven nights, they started and ended together with Guo Jing and Huang Rong, catching the light of the protagonist's halo, as long as Guo Jing can safely pass through the few days of retreat and healing without being disturbed, then Hua Zheng will definitely be able to survive!

The author has something to say: Chapter 23 "Uprising in the Forbidden Palace" When everyone makes such a fuss, everyone in the palace panics. In the dark night, it is not known whether the royal family is plotting to usurp the throne or the subjects are rebelling.The palace guards, imperial forest army, and forbidden army were all startled, but none of the generals in command knew where the chaos was coming from, so they harassed themselves all night until dawn, and then all the cavalry came out together, and the nine cities were seized. A lot of "rebels" and "assassins" were caught, but it was a pity that after the interrogation, they found out that they were either local hooligans or thieves, so they had to fabricate confessions and kill a group of them randomly, not only to repay the king's favor, but also to protect the position. up.

Guo Jing said: "I have to find a quiet place. We both follow the method in the scriptures and work hard at the same time. The two of you each strike a palm to counteract each other, and use your skill to help me heal my wound." When he said this, He closed his eyes and took a few breaths before continuing: "The difficulty lies in the seven days and seven nights. The two palms must not be separated for a moment. You and I share the same breath. Although we can talk, we must never say a word to a third person. Don't stand up and walk half a step. If someone comes to disturb you, then..."

Chapter 24 "Chamber Healing"

The "Healing Chapter" in the "Nine Yin Manual" talks about how to use qigong to regulate the true essence and treat internal injuries if you are a master and use qigong to injure yourself.As for the treatment of traumatic injuries such as broken bones and gold wounds, those who study the scriptures don't need to learn any more.

Huang Rong only listened to it once, and she remembered that there are a few places in the scriptures that are not very clear. The two of them worked together to deduce the details, one has a solid foundation in the internal skills of the Quanzhen School, and the other is extremely intelligent.At that moment, Huang Rong stretched out her right palm to touch Guo Jing's left palm, each of them practiced hard according to the law.
