MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 152 Reunion in Fenghua State (8000)
Chapter 152 Reunion in Fenghua State (8000)
"Oh, you saw something related to me in the female Taoist priest, tell me what it is?" Xu Bai said.
That crazy female viewer, actually Xu Bai is also quite curious about her.
Although he was robbed and taken to a cave at the beginning, Xu Bai could feel that even though the other party had completely fallen into madness, he still wanted to finally find a trace of sobriety in this madness.
So he really wanted to know what state the hostess was in, and whether a short sobriety could really make her gradually recover.
It's a pity that Patriarch Ye didn't seem to be talking about this issue. After Xu Bai asked, she organized her language a little bit and said what she said.
"Ye Zi was taken away, and then she saw something, and she found that it was exactly the same as this wood carving."
As he spoke, Patriarch Ye pointed back at the wooden carving placed aside.
This wood carving was discovered by the unknown secretary in the wild, and he found that it looked exactly like Xu Bai. When he came to Fengling Mansion to investigate the government order, he brought it to Xu Bai.
At that time Xu Bai was also very curious. After seeing the progress bar on it, he stayed by his side and had no time to worry about it. Later, he went to the bottom of the river and entered the ghost city. at this place.
Now, Patriarch Ye told him that this wood carving had appeared in the female temple master, and Ye Zi had seen it before. Could it be carved by the female temple master?
Patriarch Ye continued: "That crazy female Taoist priest is still carving, and only carved a semi-finished product.
"So I suspect that this wood carving was carved by her, and it may be related to Mr. Xu."
"But I don't know what the connection is, so I can only tell Mr. Xu."
Xu Bai rubbed his chin, lost in thought.
Now it seems that it was really carved by the female viewer, but why the female viewer wants to carve the same wood carving as him, there is room for thinking.
It's impossible for the other party to admire him, so he carved it for him, right?
It is even more unlikely that the other party admired and loved him, so he carved out his appearance day and night, and when the night was quiet, he took out the wood carving and did some weird things.
There must be a deeper reason, but Xu Bai couldn't think of it.
But these are not important, what is important is that he now knows that Ye Zi is fine, so he should leave quickly and find Ye Zi as soon as possible.
It just so happens that this road is also on the way, so there is no need to delay, and we will start immediately.
"Patriarch Ye, I have to say goodbye first." Xu Bai said.
After he finished speaking, under the surge of true energy, the fourth-grade puppet sitting on the ground not far away moved and stood up again, like a tireless guard.
Patriarch Ye didn't expect Xu Bai to say goodbye when he first arrived, but he heard Xu Bai like this, saying it was hard to keep him, so he just gritted his teeth and said: "Master Xu, so many things happened this time when you came to Fengling Mansion, it is true that It's because my Ye family didn't take good care of it, if you need to make up for anything, you can tell me anytime."
Is it not just not thoughtful enough?
Xu Bai has been missing for several days in a row. If she hadn't come back this time, she wouldn't know what to do.
The person whom the emperor liked had an accident on the way to the capital to receive the reward, and even more so in the Fengling Mansion. It is absolutely impossible for the Ye family to erase this guilt.
What's more, they were not harmed, but something happened to Xu Bai, even if there were a hundred mouths, it would be difficult to argue, not to mention that once His Majesty the Emperor was furious, how would he give them a chance to argue?
Fortunately, nothing happened, everything was just a false alarm.
"I know what you are thinking, don't worry, if Ye Zi can merge with Yin Xianqu, he will definitely bring it back to you." Xu Bai said lightly.
This is a transaction, Xu Bai is considered a businessman at certain moments.
The head of the Ye family said in shame: "So I will be sorry for Mr. Xu. From now on, the Ye family will be Mr. Xu's pawns. If you have something to say, the Ye family will definitely do whatever it takes."
Xu Bai smiled, but turned his eyes away from Patriarch Ye, and turned to look at Kong Xu beside him.
Kong Xu didn't say a word, just stood beside him, silent.
Does he want to talk?
Of course I want to talk.
But he knew that now is not the time to talk, after all, these two are still discussing important matters, if he interrupts rashly, it will cause Xu Bai's displeasure, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Seeing Xu Bai's gaze now, he hurried forward two steps, cupped his hands and said, "Master Xu, can I...can I find a secluded place? I have something important to discuss with Master Xu."
Patriarch Ye is a discerning person, he can tell at a glance, and smiled: "Since the two of you have something to discuss, I will take my leave first."
Saying that, Patriarch Ye left the room directly.
After Patriarch Ye left, only Xu Bai, Kong Xu, and Old Sun beside Kong Xu were left.
Xu Bairao looked at Kong Xu with interest, and said, "Let's talk."
The second young master of the Kong family, his father is an official in the capital, and his official position is equivalent to a state order.
A person like this should enjoy a luxurious life, but it is a word.
Brilliant clothes and jade food are indeed enjoyed, but at the same time, it also means that there is no improvement in a lifetime.
There is a big brother on the head, if you want to get rid of him quickly, as long as you become the head of the family, then the next step is to deal with him without any scruples.
His father, that is, the head of the Kong family, is also an extremely old-fashioned person. He regards ethics as more important than life, so he will never be allowed to usurp the throne.
Even if Kong Xu is better than his elder brother in all aspects, it is impossible.
In Xu Bai's view, Kong Xu is also a genius.
Although it is said that he is only in the realm of the fifth rank, don't forget that Kong Xu is both a scholar and a hexagram master.
Double cultivation is an extremely terrifying thing. As I said before, the more you cultivate, the slower your speed will be. This cannot be reflected in Xu Bai, but it is vividly reflected in other people.
As for why Kong Xu wanted to double cultivate, it can be seen from the fact that he cultivated as a hexagram master. This guy also wanted to know some opportunities for his own safety.
Kong Xu gritted his teeth and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Xu to introduce me to cooperate with the Ninth Princess."
Xu Bai frowned, this answer was indeed unexpected.
He thought that the other party wanted to cooperate with him, but he didn't expect to be recommended by him, and the target of the recommendation was Princess Nine.
Xu Bai had only heard of the Ninth Princess, but had never had any contact with him. The only person he had contact with was the Ninth Princess' personal maid, Qingxue.
Xu Bai also understood, and finally knew what Kong Xu's purpose was.
This guy is very dangerous now. To be honest, if he relies on his own ability alone, no matter how strong he is, he will not be able to resist the family's arrangement, and he will definitely lose his family's position. dangerous situation.
Then, the current plan is not to rely on his own strength, but to seek help from others. The royal family is an excellent choice for him.
The Kong family is indeed a flourishing family, but compared with the royal family, it is still far behind. If Kong Xu can enter the line of the royal family, even his father will be in awe.
"I don't actually have much contact with Princess Nine. If you want to expect something in this regard, you may be in vain." Xu Bai said.
"I understand your thoughts now, but there are still many unrealistic aspects in your thoughts. Even if I can recommend it for you, what ability do you have to make the nine princesses agree?"
"More importantly, are you absolutely sure that Princess Nine will be interested in you?"
Whether it was recommended by him or not, if Kong Xu is not strong enough, even if he is introduced, he will be mediocre and mediocre. At that time, Patriarch Kong will still not regard him as a garlic.
Kong Xu took a deep breath and said: "Master Xu, you may not take your own face very seriously, but your face is actually very important."
"Don't worry, I also have the ability to make the nine princesses agree, but what I lack now is a referral."
"As long as Master Xu can say a few words in front of the Ninth Princess, I will have a stepping stone. If it doesn't work then, I will only blame myself, not Master Xu."
While speaking, he looked at Elder Sun who was beside him.
Now, Elder Sun has only one arm left. When Kong Xu's gaze came over, he took out a book very sensiblely and handed it to Kong Xu.
Holding the book in his hand, Kong Xu slowly brought it in front of Xu Bai, and said, "Master Xu, please read, this is my fortune-telling book."
"I know, Mr. Xu likes to dabble in other books, so I think no matter what kind of gift it is, it's not as good as this gift."
"If this book can be fully understood, it is equivalent to the ability of a second-grade profession. It is a pity that there is no supporting method."
"If Mr. Xu doesn't dislike it, he can be used as an item for this transaction."
The fortune-telling book is a bit worn out, and even the words on the cover are blurred, but in front of Xu Bai, there is a golden progress bar floating on the book.
Second grade fortune telling book?
Xu Bai's eyes revealed an imperceptible eagerness.
The ability of fortune-telling, in fact, he has long coveted, but he has no chance to obtain this ability. Fortunately, he can predict the future and even find a lot of clues.
Xu Bai still has a long way to go. If he possesses this ability, it will be even more powerful for him, and it can play a pivotal role.
"Okay, I have done this business, but you also said at the beginning, I am only responsible for the introduction, and the rest depends entirely on you."
I have to say, this Kong Xu is still courageous, and he will give away the fortune-telling book of the second grade.
"Master Xu, you can rest assured, I keep my word." Kong Xu said.
Xu Bai took the book in his hand, handed it to the fourth-grade puppet beside him, and said, "I'm going to leave immediately, do you want to come with me?"
Kong Xu shook his head and said: "My injury is not completely healed. Even Old Sun needs to rest for a few days, so I won't cause trouble to Mr. Xu."
Although Ye Jia took a lot of medicine, and the injuries of the two of them have healed, but some of them still haven't recovered, so they plan to rest here for a few more days.
There is a good saying, which is to see through but not to point out.
These two guys didn't want to rest for a few days, they were afraid of being assassinated by following Xu Bai along the way, after all, these two guys had achieved their goal.
This is a transaction, and the item to be traded is the second-grade divination book in this hand. Xu Bai has to hurry up to find Ye Zi along the way, and of course he won't let them follow and slow down his progress.
Beside, the fourth-rank puppet followed Xu Bai, carrying the burden and hugging the wooden carving.
"gone."
Xu Bai didn't stay any longer, and after talking to Patriarch Ye, he rode a fast horse and traveled towards the wilderness outside, walking extremely neatly.
Patriarch Ye and Kong Xu saw each other off at the door, and they didn't look at each other until Xu Bai's figure disappeared.
"There will be more contacts in the future."
"Of course, of course."
While complimenting each other, the two returned to the Ye family...
…
Xu Bai didn't care about the communication between the two, he had already arrived in the wilderness.
While hurrying, he was thinking in his mind.
Fengling Mansion and his party have gained a lot.
Not only did he get supplements about the soul, but he also got supplements about the indestructible body.
These two things are his shortcomings, but now he has made up for a large part.
The only regret is that the indestructible body still cannot protect the soul, which is one of his regrets.
"In the future, if there is an opportunity, we must make special efforts in this area, and make up for the defect of soul protection as soon as possible."
His current physical body recovery speed has reached a terrifying level, but only the soul is a shortcoming.
If he can supplement the recovery speed of the soul, he can truly perfect this technique.
"But there is no rush right now, think about where to start next."
How should the next progress bar be, Xu Bai now has three paths.
The first way is to continue to practice the Wuming Dao Jing. If this thing is finished, it will definitely be more than one grade. After all, he has already integrated many other skills.
The second way is the liver fortune-telling book. I already know clearly that this fortune-telling book is at the second-rank level. Although it is not a mental method and cannot improve strength, second-rank skills also have great advantages.
The third way is wood carving.
In the past, he would temporarily rule out the wood carvings, but now, after learning that the wood carvings are related to the female temple master, Xu Bai started to think about it.
Could it be related to the skill of Dou Zhuan Xing Yi?
To be honest, the skill of Turning the Stars and Moving the Stars has a particularly perfect mechanism, and it can return the same way to the other.
However, there is a serious shortcoming. This shortcoming is that the grade is too low. At Xu Bai's current level, the current grade of the star shift can no longer meet his daily needs.
This skill itself, thanks to the female viewer, combined with other skills, it became what it is now.
The mechanism is so perfect that even if the female viewer met him that day, she would forcefully kidnap him.
It can be seen from this that if this skill can be improved, it will definitely be a powerful combat force.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai has already prioritized the unnamed knife scriptures, and finally got entangled in wood carvings and second-grade fortune-telling books.
After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Bai finally decided to do woodcarving first.
There is no other reason. If the progress bar of the woodcarving is as he imagined, it will definitely be a huge improvement for him. Although the second-grade fortune-telling book can play an excellent auxiliary role for him, it is useless to combat power after all. Wood carving is strong.
Even if it can be calculated, if the strength is not enough, then everything is empty.
What's more, these two are not in sequence, and at most they add up to a longer time. Anyway, they will stay in other places later, so it doesn't matter. Putting the second-grade divination book at the back is just a little delay.
Thinking about this, Xu Bai thought.
The fourth-rank puppet who was acting as a **** in front of the horse moved, and tied the wooden carving behind his back with his backhand. While riding the horse, he pointed the wooden carving to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai followed behind on a horse, staring at the wood carving, slowly increasing the progress bar.
…
Time passed unknowingly. After this period of time, except for staying in Yinyi for a while, Xu Bai has been rushing non-stop.
Unfortunately, Ye Zi was still not found.
And now, he is getting closer and closer to his next goal...
…
Fenghua Prefecture, ranked second among Jingzhou prefectural roads.
As a state, this area is naturally extremely large, and there are too many government roads under its management.
At this moment, a woman with a veil on her face, holding a fast horse in her hand, is pacing slowly on the street.
Although the woman is covered with a veil, in the eyes of others, she cannot conceal her temperament.
Stunning and eye-catching.
Ye Zi didn't know how to ride a horse at first, and he didn't know how many times he fell down along the way, but he finally learned it gradually.
If she wants to follow the path that the young master took, she must let herself learn these things. Fortunately, she is talented in this regard.
"Stay here for a while, then leave." Ye Zi glanced at the surrounding streets and thought.
Ever since he knew that Xu Bai had disappeared, and thought that Xu Bai was dead, Ye Zi was heartbroken and grief-stricken. That night, the whole night she shed tears.
In this world, Xu Bai really treats him as a person, not as a commodity.
Especially when thinking of Xu Bai in that wilderness, protecting her behind, hugging her tightly, and using his back to withstand the boundless attacks, the grief in Ye Zi's heart became deeper and deeper.
That night, she wanted to follow Xu Bai countless times, but every time she had this thought, she remembered what Xu Bai hadn't done.
So, after crying all night, Ye Zi, who is soft on the inside and strong on the outside, finally made up his mind to complete the road that Xu Bai had not completed.
That day, she came to the riverside and played a tune.
"My son is alone at the bottom of the river, he must be very lonely."
Ye Zi has already made up her mind, as long as she completes this road, she will return to Fengling Mansion, return to that river, and throw herself into the river, so that Xu Bai will not be so lonely.
"This is the only person I've met in this world who treats her as a human being. Then follow the young master after death."
Ye Zi led the horse, thinking while walking.
Not long after, she came to the inn.
Opened an upper room, Ye Zi asked the shop waiter to bring the fast horse to feed, then left the inn alone, planning to find a place to eat.
Since he has been with Xu Bai for a long time, Ye Zi also tends to go to some small stalls to eat.
After simply eating something, Ye Zi was not in a high mood, and she returned to the room again, staying in it by herself.
Xu Bai was gone, Ye Zi suddenly felt that his life seemed to have lost its direction.
Just staying in the room like this, she didn't go out, and the time gradually passed.
In the blink of an eye, it was already late at night.
It's getting late, she plans to rest and prepare to leave tomorrow morning.
Originally planned to stay for a while longer, but Ye Zi found that the longer he stayed, the more anxious he became in his heart, to finish this road earlier, and then return to the riverside, and stay with Xu Bai for the rest of his life.
Blowing out the oil lamp in front of him, Ye Zi lay on the bed, ready to sleep.
Unexpectedly, just as she closed her eyes, a voice came from her ear.
Ye Zi suddenly turned over and came to the corner of the wall.
The voice just now came from the corner, and she could hear it clearly, as if there was a conversation.
Originally, she would not do this kind of listening to the wall, but the content of the conversation just now made her eyes widen.
A thin voice came from the other side of the wall.
"Have you heard, Xu Bai is not dead, he has reappeared, and is on his way."
"Then our plan will continue, and we will inform our subordinates to intercept and kill Xu Bai on the way."
"Are you crazy? Many people intercepted and killed him on the road before, don't you know what happened in the end? Now you still want to go this old road?"
"Then what to do?"
"What else can I do? Give up this road for now."
"Give up, you mean not to kill him, don't forget, if he enters the capital, it will be like a fish entering the sea, and then he will rule the world."
"Hehe, there are so many people who want to kill him. I will take you to a place tomorrow, and you will know."
…
Voices came from the other side of the wall.
Ye Zi was in a daze, only one sentence came to her mind...
"Young master is not dead..."
She also figured out the identity on the other side of the wall, it must be the person who assassinated Xu Bai.
These are not important, the important thing is that the son is not dead!
An emotion called joy reverberated in Ye Zi's heart, Ye Zi's ashes-like emotion was rekindled, and those gray eyes also shone with brilliance.
Ye Zi tightly covered her mouth, not letting herself make a sound, and quietly went back to the bed, but the joy in her heart was like overwhelming.
Xu Bai is the light in her heart, illuminating her who was originally living in darkness, and now the light is on again, Ye Zi can't describe her mood at this moment.
Tears kept flowing, and I even forgot to wipe them off.
Young master is not dead...
Ye Zi's face was wet with tears, she only knew to repeat these four words in her heart.
After a while, the excitement gradually calmed down.
She didn't think of anything else until she calmed down.
"Young Master is not dead, he will definitely go this way, I just need to wait here, and I will definitely meet him again." Ye Zi thought to himself.
While she was overjoyed, she thought about what she had just heard.
"These people should be the ones who want to kill the young master. They won't do anything to the young master on the road. It sounds like they want to wait for the young master to come in before doing anything."
In his mind, what he just said kept reappearing, and Ye Zi was also thinking of countermeasures.
The people on the other side of the wall seemed to have no desire to talk anymore, and soon fell silent, and Ye Zi could not hear any other movement.
Just like that, the night passed.
The next morning, Ye Zi, who hadn't slept all night, got up early and came to the corner.
There was another movement on the other side of the wall, a sparse sound, as if washing up.
After a while, the people inside left the inn.
Ye Zi stood on the spot and thought for a while, but temporarily gave up the plan to follow.
Although she has entered the fourth rank, in fact, her combat power is not strong, and she is more inclined to support. She is not a stupid person, so don't follow up at this time, so as not to cause trouble to the young master.
"Everything... Let's wait until the son arrives."
Thinking of this, Ye Zi went out directly and came to the entrance of Fenghua Prefecture.
She wants to wait here. This is the only entrance from Fengling Mansion to Fenghua Prefecture. She wants to see him as soon as he arrives here.
People came and went around, Ye Zi found a tea stand, just sat there, staring at the city gate intently.
The people around are in an endless stream, and the crowds are full of prosperity and excitement. Compared with the mansion, the bustle of the state is simply a world of difference.
The clear tea bottomed out, and instead of waiting for Xu Bai, they waited for an irrelevant person.
"This girl, drinking tea here alone, seems to have something on her mind."
A young man in silk satin slowly sat across from Ye Zi, waving a folding fan in his hand.
The young man looks handsome, coupled with the expensive clothes on his body, the folding fan in his hand also looks expensive, giving him an extraordinary temperament.
Ye Zi took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, glanced at the young man indifferently, and continued to drink tea without saying a word.
She knows her beauty, and she also knows the thoughts of these prodigal sons.
But she doesn't even want to say a word now.
Compared with the young master, the young man in front of him...hehe.
Not even a hair of the young master.
"Girl, what do you mean?" The young man was slightly taken aback, and then said: "I just talk to the girl, why is the girl full of contempt for me?"
The young man's name is Jiang Tong, the eldest son of the Jiang family in Fenghua Prefecture.
The Jiang family is a family that specializes in silk business, and has exchanges with many big families.
The job of the Jiang family is martial arts.
That's right, Wufu.
Warriors doing silk business sounds a little strange indeed, but they couldn't hold back their talent in shopping malls, and forcibly broke through in Fenghua State.
Today, Jiang Tong was wandering around when he suddenly saw a beautiful woman drinking tea here, so he hurried over with great interest.
I thought that with my looks and family background, I could have a chat and get closer to him, but I didn't expect this beautiful woman to ignore him at all.
"If that's the case, then don't bother me." Jiang Tong cupped his hands and was about to leave.
Not all the descendants of aristocratic families in this world are idiots.
On the contrary, because of their family background and origins, they have received a good education since childhood, and they also know how to keep a low profile.
In the Great Chu State, the laws are strict. Except for small places like Shengxian County, the bigger the city, the more cultivated these family children are, and they understand that there are people outside the world, and there are others in this world. Normally, they would Will not offend.
Ye Zi drank tea and didn't care about this person. She just kept looking at the gate of the city, expecting that figure to appear.
Jiang Tong walked a few steps and was about to leave, but before he could go far, he heard a joyful voice behind him.
"Sir!"
There was joy in this voice, and there was a hint of choking, as if after being wronged for a long time, I finally met someone who could vent.
Jiang Tong was taken aback for a moment. In Fenghua Prefecture, many people called him son, so he subconsciously turned his head.
Immediately afterwards, he saw the beautiful woman before, rushing towards the city gate like a gust of wind, and quickly threw herself into the arms of a young man.
The beauty's face was still covered with crystal clear tears.
"this…"
Jiang Tong subconsciously froze, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
The woman who was as cold as ice just now turned out to be so passionate and threw herself into the arms of a man. This scene made Jiang Tong doubt himself.
He looked the young man up and down, and then he found that the young man looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
The next moment, Jiang Tong finally knew where he had seen it before, and it was on a portrait.
His father, the head of the Jiang family, once showed this portrait to everyone in the Jiang family, and the scene in the picture was exactly the same as the young man in front of him.
This is... the Blood Butcher Swordsman!
Xu Bai!
Jiang Tong was greatly shocked.
Actually, when Ye Zi threw himself into Xu Bai's arms passionately, Jiang Tong was still thinking about where he lost. Looking at it now, he didn't feel wronged!
This is the Blood Butcher Swordsman. Now, there is an uproar in the whole Jianghu, and no one does not know the Blood Butcher Swordsman.
After Jiang Tong was surprised, he suddenly thought of something, and after thinking for a while, he raised his foot and walked towards Xu Bai.
Dad said, if this person wants to make friends, he must show his sincerity.
Many families now have this kind of thinking. If so, the first time I saw it, I wanted to grab the first move.
At this moment, Xu Bai put his arms around Ye Zi and patted her head.
He has been rushing so fast these days, he finally arrived, but unexpectedly, Ye Zi was already waiting for him at the gate of the city.
Thinking about the news that he was not dead, there must have been a lot of rumors, and Ye Zi should be waiting for him at the gate of the city.
He originally planned to find a place to rest and finish the woodcarving. After all, he was on the road during this period of time, and the progress bar of the woodcarving was not much worse, but he thought that Fenghua State was not far away, so he decided to go to Fenghua State.
Unexpectedly, he really met Ye Zi at first sight.
"My lord, as long as you are fine." Ye Zi choked up.
She had thousands of words to say, but they gathered on her lips, leaving only this sentence.
Yeah, it’s fine.
Ye Zi only hoped that Xu Bai was fine, and ignored everything else.
Thinking of this, she hugged her tighter.
Xu Bai sighed, and was about to say something.
Unexpectedly, there was a sound of footsteps, and he raised his head to look in the direction of the footsteps.
"In Jiangtong, Huazhou, downwind, I saw blood butcher swordsmen." Jiang Tong cupped his hands.
In his mind, if he can call out the other party's title in one breath, he will definitely be the first step to arouse the other party's favor.
Unexpectedly, he found that Xu Bai's face turned black.
