Chapter Thirty-ninth Eight Meridians Rejuvenating Needle

He was not sure whether the so-called assassin in Liu Gongwen's mouth was coming to assassinate him. When he just returned to the inn, Liu Gong Wenyan said that someone was following him, so he took two guards out of the backyard. However, after half an hour, he returned to the hall and said that he had discovered the assassin of the Great Zhou court.

Half-believing and half-doubted, he heard the assassin escaped to Liu Jiye's mansion again, and he became scheming in his heart. He wanted to take the opportunity to take the opportunity to besides this border guard who made the Liao people afraid. He heard what Liu Chengjun meant, and said, "Can the prince think that this four-meter-high Taiyuan wall can stop the general of the Zhe family?"

The Northern Han Emperor loved and hated the Northern Han Emperor. The Zhe family army, who was stationed in the prefectures, served in the Northern Han court. Later, the Northern Han Emperor surrendered to the Liao Dynasty to borrow troops to attack the Later Zhou Dynasty, which aroused the resentment of the Zhe family army and thus escaped from the Northern Han and surrendered to the Later Zhou Dynasty.

The Zhe family army guarded the prefectures and blocked the Liao Kingdom's route from the Yellow River to the Central Plains. Although the Northern Han officials were in charge of the Liao Dynasty, they did not want the Liao people to enter the Central Plains. Therefore, they also wanted to turn a blind eye to the existence of the Zhe family army. However, when the Northern Han attacked the Later Zhou Dynasty, the Zhe family army invaded the Northern Han in the west, which distracted the Northern Han and had to take action against the Zhe family army.

But when Yelu Zongwu mentioned the general of the Zhe family, Liu Chengjun was shocked. He was very knowledgeable about power and strategy. Yelu Zongwu wanted to use a knife to kill someone, but he could not hide it from him. He thought to himself that if the assassin was a member of the Zhe family, he would never escape to the Liu Mansion to implicate Liu Jiye. This assassin may come from the Central Plains. After the assassin failed to assassination, he accidentally fled to the Liu Mansion.

Liu Chengjun was very trusting about Liu Jiye's loyalty, and thought that if the assassin really had to escape into the Liu Mansion, he would ask for an order to find it. Even if it had nothing to do with Liu Jiye, it would be difficult to protect Liu Jiye's completeness when the court's pro-Liao ministers were swearing. If anyone was not found, it would have been disappointed. Thinking of this, he said, "Why would General Yelu think that this assassin is from the Zhe family?"

"General Liu's wife is the descendant of the Zhe family. If this assassin fled into the Liu family, if it were not the members of the Zhe family, could it be General Liu Jiye's subordinate?"

This statement naturally determined that Liu Jiye was related to the assassin. Liu Chengjun chuckled when he heard this: "Hehe, can't it be the Guo family in the Central Plains who sent someone to frame the blame? The general's words are too early."

He turned to Liu Gongwen, "Mr. Liu's guards did see the assassin escape into Liu's mansion with his own eyes?"

Liu Gongwen naturally would not change his words, so he nodded and said, "It was indeed seen by Qian Guard..."

"Where is the guard of money?" Liu Chengjun asked.

"Liu is afraid that the assassin will escape from the Liu Mansion, so he leaves money to guard secretly."

Seeing him say this, Liu Chengjun frowned and pondered for a moment: "It's late at night now, so it's not advisable to go to the palace to disturb the emperor's rest... The two of you will go to the Liu Mansion with me to inquire."

He turned around and said to the guards beside him, "Prepare horses." After saying that, he walked out of the way. Yelu Zongwu and Liu Gongwen looked at each other and had to follow Liu Chengjun and head for Liu's mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Liu's mansion, the guard Qian came up to him. After saluting, he shook his head at Liu Gongwen and whispered: "The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes from behind has left a follower, but no one else has ever seen anyone else."

It turned out that Liu Jiye was afraid that someone would pay attention to it, so he let Zhe Deshou and Zhe Xiexun come out from the front door, while Yang Zhong left in a carriage with the injured Luo Xiaoyao and Mo Bushan.

At this time, the guards in the prince's mansion had knocked on the door. Liu Jiye came out, but he was not surprised to see Liu Chengjun coming, and bowed and said, "Jiye has met Your Highness."

Liu Chengjun smiled and said, "I was busy with political affairs yesterday and could not come in person to congratulate the young master Miyue's happiness. Don't be surprised by Jiye, ah, haha..."

"How dare Jiye?" Liu Jiye turned to Yelu Zongwu, bowed and smiled, "I have met the envoy."

While guarding the northern Han territory, he had fought with Yelu Zongwu, who was the commander of the Shuozhou cavalry, but he also knew him. Yelu Zongwu smiled slightly and bowed his hand to return the gift.

Liu Jiye smiled at Liu Gongwen and said, "I guess Liu Gongfeng didn't chase the assassin, so he asked His Highness the Prince to help chase him, haha..."

After laughing, he invited Liu Chengjun and the other two into the hall of the mansion to sit. Liu Chengjun looked at the arrangements in the hall and smiled and said, "Why haven't Jiye rested yet in the middle of the night?"

"The child is happy, and many colleagues from the court come to congratulate him. Jiye has not seen him for a long time, so he has a lot of nagging words. After seeing the guests away, he wanted to rest, but unexpectedly, Liu Gongfeng's guards wanted to break into the mansion. They were stopped by Jiye, saying that some assassin escaped into the mansion..." Liu Jiye paused and looked at Liu Gongwen, "Seeing Liu Gongfeng's expression, Jiye thought that he might come again, so he did not think of rest again."

"When will the guard break in?"

"It should be just after the hour of Hai. The servants in the mansion had a lot of chores to organize their children's joy because of the joy of the moon. They had not yet had a rest at that time." Liu Jiye responded.

Liu Chengjun nodded and looked at Yelu Zongwu, "General Yelu, can you let the guards who found the assassin breaking in? I have something to ask."

Yelu Zongwu also realized that it was reasonable and nodded in agreement. Liu Chengjun ordered his followers to invite the guards surnamed Qian into the mansion.

Liu Gongwen became nervous. The reason why he lied to Yelu Zongwu that Luo Xiaoyao was an assassin was his own reason. He was worried that Yelu Zongwu would not want to help him deal with Luo Xiaoyao. After all, this was his personal grudge. After Chu Nanfeng broke into the guard house to kill him, the people in the guard house had already complained.

Second, when Luo Xiaoyao and others were injured, if they did not take the opportunity to get rid of it, Chu Nanfeng and Weng Mu rushed over after hearing the news, Yan Zhongchang was recovering from the injury, and then no one would be willing to protect himself.

As for Luo and Mo, they were speculating whether they broke into the Liu Mansion. They thought that Liu Chengjun would search the Liu Mansion regardless of the circumstances because of Yelu Zongwu's envoy. After all, assassinating the envoy of the state is a serious matter, but they never thought it would be like a trial in court. But when he saw the Qian guard coming in, he suddenly changed his mind and said first: "Guardian Qian, you will see the two assassins escaping into the mansion and tell the leader Yelu..."

Qian Guard was stunned, but when he saw Liu Gongwen squinting his eyes at him, he immediately realized that he might be a scapegoat. Observing the face in the officialdom is a compulsory course for everyone as his subordinates. He heard this and hesitated for a moment, saying, "Reported to the commander, my subordinates were on the roof at that time... were more than ten feet away from the two injured assassins. After the two jumped off the roof, they turned into the alley on the left side of the Liu Mansion. When the subordinates rushed to the entrance of the alley, they could not see them, but they heard the sound of rapid steps in the Liu Mansion courtyard. I thought it was the two who escaped..."

"Wait, Guard Qian, you didn't see this with your own eyes?" Liu Chengjun frowned and looked at Yelu Zongwu in a blink of an eye: "Jieye just said that because Jiye's son Miyue held a banquet, many servants still had chores, but by hearing footsteps in the courtyard, he concluded that the two assassins broke into Liu's mansion. General Yelu might have been hasty, right?"

After the Qian Guard came in, Yelu Zongwu knew that Liu Gongwen was hiding the truth when he saw Liu Gongwen's words and deeds. Moreover, how could Liu Gongwen's cultivation be behind the Qian Guard? He secretly cursed Liu Gongwen's ancestor in his heart. However, after all, he wanted to protect the face of his envoy of the Great Liao Dynasty. He did not answer Liu Chengjun's question, and asked the Qian Guard: "What?"

"At that time, my subordinates jumped onto the courtyard wall, but were discovered by General Liu."

Yelu Zongwu turned around and smiled at Liu Jiye: "Why is General Liu so alert?"

But when Liu Jiye laughed, "Guard Qian was chasing him for a moment, he felt that the assassin broke into the courtyard wall next to the alley. Why didn't he chase him immediately, but instead broke into the courtyard wall of the main entrance?"

He paused and looked at Yelu Zongwu: "I just happened to send a colleague from the court out of the palace. When someone broke into the courtyard wall, he shot him down with one punch."

The Qian Guard's face turned red when he heard this. Yelu Zongwu naturally would not retreat at this time. Although there was no evidence that the assassin fled to Liu's mansion, someone should be determined as a fact. After glaring at the Qian Guard, he turned to laugh and said, "The assassin cannot assassinate him. If he escapes to this nearby, General Liu's mansion is very large. Even if he was invaded and hidden, he may not notice it for a while. I hope General Liu will ask General Liu to investigate to prevent the assassin from shocking the general's family."

"The envoy of the Great Liao Dynasty was assassinated in our Han area. This general has the position of co-inspection. When Liu Chongfeng retired, I was afraid that a villain had really broke into the house and disturbed the child. I also checked the mansion carefully, but I did not find anything. I said this... I am the envoy, do you believe it?"

Yelu Zongwu was stunned when he heard this. As an official of the Liao Dynasty, he knew that his official power was very powerful. With Liu Jiye's identity, no one dared to force a search if it was not for the emperor's will. Liu Jiye said this and quietly lowered him the steps and walked, and said with a smile: "As the commander of the defense, General Liu will never let the assassination of the envoy. The general has investigated it. How could he not believe it? But the surrounding house..."

But Liu Chengjun said in a silence: "The house on the right side is the residence of Lord Li of the Ministry of Revenue, the house on the Zhongshushe, the house on the street on the left, and most of the houses behind are the residences of officials in the court... In my opinion, if you make a decision after the morning court reports to the emperor, what will the envoy agree with me?"

At this time, Yelu Zongwu was called an envoy, and he was less close to him and wanted to act according to the rules. Yelu Zongwu knew that this was the only way at the moment. Moreover, the real situation was not what Liu Gongwen said, so he politely asked Liu Jiye, said goodbye and left.

One by one by one

Those who have been hit by "Shenfeng San" will gradually recover after twelve hours. Unfortunately, Luo Xiaoyao's qi was injured by Liu Gongwen's palm qi when his qi was gradually weakened, and he was hit by the Qihu acupoint by "Zhoutian Finger". His injuries were not light. Fortunately, he was accustomed to the "Taichu Heart Method" and the Tian Si Silkworm body, so he did not feel unconscious. He said to Zhe Deshou, who transported true qi into his body in the carriage: "I think I am hit by poisons like San Gong, cough, cough... the true qi cannot be condensed, and it is difficult to... induced qi to heal the wound, but my life is not hindered. My benefactor does not have to waste his true qi at this time."

Zhe Deshou withdrew his right palm and moved Luo Xiaoyao to the wall of the carriage. "Then you should take good care of yourself and rest for the time being. When you arrive in the prefecture, find a good doctor to treat it."

He turned to Mo Bushan, who was swaying the qi and sucked the poison, and said, "Mr. Mo needs help?"

Mo Bushan looked at the black blood that had a slightly fishy smell from his palm, shook his head and said, "Fortunately, this poison has not invaded the internal organs, otherwise it would be a god who could not save it..."

After hearing this, Zhe Deshou knew that he was fine, he reached out and lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, "It's dawn, and this place is more than 500 miles away from the prefecture. Two of you are injured and it's inconvenient to hurry up. I think it's time to arrive tomorrow. If you need it, please speak out."

The journey went smoothly. Finally, on the morning of the next day, the Zhe family army also had a ship that was hiding in the Han territory. So the crowd abandoned the carriage, boarded the ferry and crossed the Yellow River, and set foot on the territory of the Prefecture.

Luo Xiaoyao and Mo Bushan were placed in the first battalion of soldiers. Not long after, they saw Zhe Deshou smiling and said, "What a great blessing. I didn't expect that Zhe had been to Taiyuan for seven days. A miracle doctor was invited to the army... After a while, Master Miao Gu would come."

At this time, the medicinal properties of "Shenfeng San" had passed in twelve hours. Although Luo Xiaoyao's true qi gradually recovered, it was injured by the palm power of Liu Gongwen's "Zhoutian Xin Method". Zhou Tian Finger also specifically injured the acupoints of people's meridians and ducts. The circulation of qi and unblocking the meridians was slow, but he felt chest pain and could not get out of bed. After hearing Zhe Deshou's words, he said, "Thank you, Brother Zhe..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw two people coming in outside the door and looked up, but he couldn't help but say happily: "Uncle Master, you..."

It turned out that the person came was Jiang Qiubai and Miao Changning. A few days ago, Miao Changning produced an antidote and removed the poison of "Danxixi" and saw that the soldiers had recovered, so he wanted to say goodbye to Jiang Qiubai and leave, but he heard from the defense envoy Zhe De's words that two knights were poisoned and injured in the assassination of Liao envoy in the Northern Han Dynasty, and asked him to go to treat the wound.

Miao Changning thought of doing the best, so he agreed. Jiang Qiubai, who was accompanying him, did not expect that the injured person was Luo Xiaoyao. He was shocked when he saw this, "Xiaoyao, what's going on?"

Immediately turned around and said to Miao Changning: "This is Luo Xiaoyao, the beloved disciple of the mountain captain. Please ask Master Miao Gu to worry."

Miao Changning was shocked when he heard that it was Chu Nanfeng's apprentice. He hurriedly stepped forward to take his pulse and snore. His face changed drastically. It turned out that he found out that Luo Xiaoyao was not only injured by his Miao family's "Zhoutian Xin Method", but also suffered from "Shenfeng San".

In amazement, he took out a cloth bag from his arms. After opening it, everyone saw more than ten silver needles stored side by side. After Miao Changning disinfected the silver needles, he then applied needles in the eight extraordinary meridians of Luo Xiaoyao's body, and after half a stick of incense, he took out the needle and handed it out a "Guiyuan Dan" with Luo Xiaoyao, saying: "Take it down and induced the qi and regulate breathing."

He turned around and walked towards Mo Bushan, looked at Mo Bushan's black palm, sighed, took out the 'Hundred Grass Pill' and said, "This pill can relieve the remaining venom of this silver dragon and snake."

Everyone is not good at skepticism, and they hurriedly take it and swallow it, and luck turns into medicine and promotes the whole body.

Looking at Jiang Qiubai, who looked concerned, Miao Changning said, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, Young Master Luo is fine, and he will be cured in one or two days. This "Zhoutian Heart Method" true qi not only hurts people's internal organs, but also has great harm to the various qi meridians. Fortunately, Young Master Luo's veins are different from ordinary people, otherwise even if he used these eight qi needles, he would have to lie on the bed for ten or eight days."

Luo Xiaoyao took the silver needle from Miao Changning and felt refreshed. After taking the "Guiyuan Dan" to promote Qi and operate the medicine, he suddenly felt that the qi in his body was unobstructed. He was very impressed by Miao Changning's wonderful hand technique of rejuvenating the spring, so he hurriedly got out of bed and bowed and bowed: "Thank you for helping me."

"Fortunately, I'd be fine, otherwise I would have no face to face Mr. Chu... Alas." He had confirmed that the person who hurt Luo Xiaoyao was Liu Gongwen. When he thought of Ma Xilan, he naturally sighed, "How did Young Master Luo meet the evil man Liu Gongwen?"

Luo Xiaoyao and Miao Changning had never met him, but when Jiang Qiubai called him, he knew that the old man in front of him was the master of the Medicine King Valley. Of course, it is not to be mentioned to others about theft of "Feng Wuqin" in Taiyuan. After thinking for a moment, he bowed and said, "My father was accidentally injured. My younger brother went out to the rivers and lakes to seek medical treatment. He accidentally met Liu Gongwen, a villain at the Liaoren Inn in Taiyuan. He was ambushed by poisonous smoke. Fortunately, Mr. Mo saved him and escaped."

Luo Xiaoyao was originally annoyed by Mo Bushan's deceiving Shui Longyin, but he was a person with a clear distinction between gratitude and grudge. Although the injury this time was caused by Mo Bushan's sword, he saw that Mo Bushan gave up his life to save him, but when his hatred disappeared, he felt grateful.

When Jiang Qiubai heard Luo Xiaoyao's words, he looked grateful and bowed to Mo Bushan, "Thank you, Mr. Mo."

He didn't know whether the marriage between Mo Bushan and Luo Xiaoyao was between Mo Bushan and Luo Xiaoyao, and thought that Mo Bushan should be the one in Tongbao Pavilion. At this time, Miao and Zhe were present, but they were not convenient to ask about the origin, so as not to reveal the secrets of Tongbao Pavilion. But Mo Bushan felt ashamed in his heart, and hurriedly bowed back and said that he didn't dare to take it.

"So... this evil man thought he had entered the Guardian and became a guest minister, but how did he refine the "Shenfeng San"?"

Miao Changning for a moment did not expect that the "Shenfeng San" that was given to Weng Mu was captured by Liu Gongwen. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out the reason. He sighed, "The poison of this soldiers in the prefecture was also done by this evil man. He must have the idea of ​​killing this evil man, so he will be in endless troubles."

He paused for a moment, looked at Luo Xiaoyao with some feelings, and hesitated for a moment, "I just heard what Mr. Luo said... I seemed to say that Ling Zun was injured. I wonder what was injured? Can you tell me?"

Luo Xiaoyao felt that everyone in the room was trustworthy, so he did not avoid mentioning the injury of Luo Hanshui. It was unintentional, but Miao Changning was a doctor and asked instinctively.

Luo Xiaoyao was stunned and suddenly woke up and secretly scolded himself for being confused. In fact, it was no wonder that he was diagnosed by Master Jue, a master of Taoism, no one thought that only the "Sky Thunder Sound" of the Mingwu monk could resolve the hundred-kiocha Buddha boxing, and he forgot to seek treatment from someone with superb medical skills.

Now I personally experience Miao Changning's skill in rejuvenating the spring. Luo Xiaoyao felt hope and hurriedly expressed his symptoms of Luo Hanshui's injury.

Miao Changning stroked his long beard and pondered after hearing this. After a long time, he seemed to be talking to himself: "Is it the same injury as the senior Ling?"

After pausing, he looked at Luo Xiaoyao's earnest eyes, "If I judge that I am not bad, I may be able to treat my wounds..."

"Ah?" Luo Xiaoyao, who was overjoyed, hurriedly bowed and bowed: "I hope you can come out and save me."

"But if you want to save Mr. Luo's father, you must have someone in the Nascent Soul Realm to help me. Only when my Miao family's "Eight-Meridian Resurrection Needle" method can you succeed."

It turned out that Miao Changning knew that the higher the cultivation level of the injured person, the more difficult it was to heal him. He thought that Luo Xiaoyao's father's cultivation level should be not low, and he had this requirement in order to be fully qualified.

"You have to get to the Nascent Soul Realm?" Jiang Qiubai asked.

Miao Changning nodded and said, "Yes, if you want to be foolproof, you must obtain the Nascent Soul Realm, even the Golden Body Realm with similar cultivation is not possible."

Seeing everyone's confusion, Miao Changning said, "My great-grandfather, Qingyuan, traveled all over the mountains to look for rare herbs more than a hundred years ago. He accidentally found a man lying in a cave. He was covered with energy within three feet of his body, but he couldn't wake up."

"Qingyuan Gong has achieved great spiritual enlightenment. Seeing that he is not like practicing martial arts and is in a state of being in a devilish state, but it is also abnormal. After careful observation, he found that his three souls and seven spirits were trapped..."

"Three souls and seven spirits are trapped?" Zhe Deshou said in surprise.

"The so-called soul is palpitations and souls move. If the person's soul is hit by a skill, the seven souls will naturally palpitations and move to rescue him. However, the technique that hurts people's souls is rare in the world. It actually leads to the loss of the energy and causes the human energy to be exhausted and die."

"And the person trapped in the soul is in the realm of the Nascent Soul. The natal fetal pill already has spiritual consciousness, so the strength of the mind is naturally extraordinary. I think that when I find that my soul is injured and the seven souls protect each other, the spiritual consciousness of the nascent fetal pill also gathers qi from outside the body to save it, so that the qi is everywhere in the body."

Everyone is a martial arts practitioner, and he knows that his cultivation has reached the state of Nascent Soul and nourished by the natal fetal pill in Tianguan cannot manifest itself as the Taoist practitioners say, but it can condense into a tangible and invisible spiritual consciousness of soul and fetal consciousness, killing people invisible. However, if people who practice such cultivation will be hurt, they will lose their compelling eyes when they hear this.

Luo Xiaoyao heard Master Jue talk about Ling Buyi. Although he was shocked, he guessed the origin of the injured person when he heard this.

"Mr. Qingyuan knew that he had insufficient cultivation and did not dare to help him. After staying by the man for three days, the qi around the man gradually weakened and disappeared, his face turned red and white, his breath was tight and slow. I knew something was wrong, Qingyuan gave the silver needle that had been prepared early, first applied the needle to the eight meridians intersection points, stabilized the qi of the twelve meridians, and then used the "Eight Meridians Resurrection Needle" method to select the acupoints to strengthen the soul and summon the soul. The man also woke up half an hour later."

Luo Xiaoyao heard "ah" and showed a happy expression on his face.

"The man called himself Ling Buyi. Although his great-grandfather Qingyuan Gong was devoted to medical treatment, he had heard of Ling Buyi. He knew that he was the number one master in martial arts world at that time, and he became more and more surprised. Ling Buyi knew that Qingyuan Gong was rescued by acupuncture, but when he thanked him, he also said that he should be like this."

"It turns out that Senior Ling had exhausted his energy and eliminated the energy that attacked his soul. It was already the time when the lamp was gone and the oil was dry. Qingyuan Gong triggered a little energy in his eight extraordinary meridians to awaken it, but his power was dissipated and he was like an ordinary person."

But when the injured person was the Ling Buyi guessed in his heart, he was really as expected by the monk from India. After being hit by a hundred kalpas, Luo Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"If Mr. Qingyuan gathers qi outside his body to save him, and causes the qi stored in the eight meridians to burst out, it will definitely be able to escape the restrained soul. At that time, Senior Ling will not have lost all his skills. Unfortunately, Mr. Qingyuan does not have enough cultivation and cannot apply needles in the qi that self-protection is the vast qi..."

Luo Xiaoyao, who looked nervous, asked, "What happened to you later? How about Senior Ling?"

Miao Changning sighed, "Senior Ling was grateful to the great-grandfather, Duke Qingyuan, who saved him. After teaching a few palm techniques and great-grandfather, he left alone. However, according to Duke Qingyuan's judgment, there should be no more time."
