Xu Tong had a dream. In the dream, he saw his master and his master. They were sitting at the head of Naihe Bridge, waiting for him. The master was wearing a red mandarin jacket and holding a small flag in his hand. The master was wearing a black brocade robe and his hair.
Wearing a crown.
"Boy, just go home."
The master always had a kind smile on his face, and the master at the side held a small flag: "Go this way, go this way, look at that mountain over there."
Xu Tong looked around and saw that it was a mountain of bones with no end in sight. The mountain was full of blue flowers, and the fat petals actually showed patterns of human faces, and each face was different.
Master patted him on the shoulder: "He belongs to our family."
Then he pointed to the river on the side. The river was rolling like a river, but it was crystal clear. However, there were no fish in it, only water floats.
"Our family!"
The master looked proud, and pointed to the sea of flowers and jungle in the distance, and said the same thing: "Ours!"
Finally, he pointed behind him with his hand.
Xu Tong looked back and saw Lilith, wearing a neat kitchen skirt, standing in front of the stove with a knife and fork, playing with a plate of beef.
"This belongs to our family too!"
Xu Tong answered with gleaming eyes.
However, when the voice fell, the master and master smiled coldly and said in unison: "No, that's yours!"
I saw Lilith raising the rolling pin in her hand as if feeling something, staring at Xu Tong with her charming eyes, and licking the rolling pin with her enchanting tongue.
"Oh!!"
Xu Tong was so excited that he suddenly woke up from his dream.
He opened his eyelids and didn't have time to focus his sight. He only saw a blurry black shadow in front of him. Xu Tong punched it without thinking: "They are all from my family!"
"Ouch!"
After this punch, there was a burst of screams, and then Li Xi's sharp voice was heard shouting aggrievedly: "Brother Ma, what are you from my family? I belong to the royal family."
Xu Tong took a closer look and realized that he was lying on the bed, and the person standing next to him was actually Li Xi.
"Eh??? Why is it you??"
After Xu Tong finished speaking, he felt a splitting headache in his head and quickly lay down again, unable to remember what happened.
Li Xi covered his face and got up from the ground. Seeing that he woke up, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, you finally woke up. If you don't wake up, I don't know what to do."
No matter whether Li Xi is sincere or fake at this moment, he does not want Master Ma to die in this place. If Ma Hongwen dies, he will lose a big supporter.
Secondly, Ma Hongwen died here. Even if Ma Qi was worried about going to Qintian Prison and would not do anything to Yang Gongjing, if his anger were turned on him, he would not be able to stay in the palace any longer.
Without the protection of the palace, he could only live in exile, so wouldn't his sword be in vain? He didn't even have time to use it.
So seeing Ma Hongwen wake up at this moment, Li Xi naturally breathed a long sigh of relief.
In fact, when he and Yang Gongjing woke up, they were also shocked when they found Xu Tong lying on the ground, black and charred. If it weren't for the fact that there were still some pieces of clothes on his body, they wouldn't have done it.
I dare to believe that this is Ma Hongwen.
At that time, Yang Gongjing only said, "It depends on fate." The underlying meaning was that there was no need to save her.
Not to mention Yang Gongjing, even Li Xi himself felt that Master Ma was going to die in a foreign land. Who knew that after one night, Li Xi was shocked to find that Xu Tong's injuries had actually healed a lot.
Even his vital signs began to stabilize, so naturally Yang Gongjing could no longer let him go. She took him back to Lianshan County and found a crappy local doctor to treat his injuries.
In this way, Xu Tong fell into a coma for three whole days, and it was only at this moment that he finally woke up.
"So, when you found me, I was already fainting on the ground, but you didn't see Zhao Xusen?"
Xu Tong closed his eyes and finally recalled the scene after he gave up in his head that was about to turn into paste.
However, it was obvious that besides himself and Zhao Xusen, there was a mysterious person who saved them, but when Li Xi and the others woke up, they said they had never seen the other person.
Could it be that the other party is a good person who is brave enough to do what is right?
He tried to recall the other person's appearance, but his mind was so dizzy that he couldn't recall a single memory. The only impression in his mind seemed to be a strong smell of alcohol.
"Brother Ma, you must be hungry. You need to rest first and I'll find you something to eat."
When Li Xi saw that Xu Tong was silent, he thought he must be hungry, so he hurried out to find some food for Xu Tong.
After Li Xi left, Xu Tong called out the props book and took a look.
Only then did I realize how bad my condition was.
In addition to being deprived of 10 years of life, he now has extensive wounds and is in a semi-paralyzed state. Moreover, because he maximized the power of the Dark Lord, his demonic power card has become
Gray, suspended status.
Coupled with the script points consumed, it can definitely be considered a heavy loss.
However, Xu Tong felt that it was worth paying such a high price, not only because he was able to save his life from the hands of a great master, but also because he really knocked on the door of the King of Hell's family this time.
Even with the help of the Demon King's power, since he can knock it open once, it means that he can knock it open a second time, a third time, or even open it at any time. As for whether the King of Hell bothers him or not, will he ask himself?
Once you have a meal, you won't have to worry about so much anymore.
After a while, Yang Gongjing walked in.
Yang Gongjing was also surprised when he learned that Ma Hongwen had woken up. From what he knew, an ordinary person would have died long ago from such a serious injury.
Even those martial arts masters who have struggled in martial arts schools for more than ten years may not survive.
But Ma Hongwen actually survived, which had to impress him.
"When I entered the palace, my father was worried about such a day, so he gave me a life-saving elixir. It must be the effect of this elixir."
Seeing the confusion on Yang Gongjing's face, Xu Tong took the initiative to explain.
This is half true and half false. The fact that he was able to survive and recover so quickly was naturally due to Ling Yan’s blood-activating pill, but a larger part of the reason was due to the effects of his dark physique on him at night.
Powerful recovery effect.
"So that's it!"
Yang Gongjing nodded thoughtfully, and he could accept this explanation, because Ma Qi's official position and authority were real. Even though he abided by the specifications and always maintained the treatment of the third grade, privately, those who saw it were
Wherever you go, there is a lot of profit.
And Ma Hongwen was Ma Qi's only son, so it wouldn't be too much to give him some means to save his life.
It's just that such a magical elixir must be extremely valuable. It would be a waste to give it to a guy like Ma Hongwen.
Yang Gongjing could never change her bad impression of Ma Hongwen.
You can't blame him, after all, Ma Hongwen's reputation in the capital is really...
Immediately, Yang Gongjing asked about what happened at Lianshan Temple. Xu Tong covered his head and thought for a moment before explaining to Yang Gongjing.
But he hid things about Zhao Xusen.
It wasn't that he meant to protect Zhao Xusen, but he told it himself because Yang Gongjing wouldn't believe it.
Not to mention how a student who advocated new learning transformed into a great master. He only saved his life under the hands of a great master. Even if he said this, no one would believe it.
.
A great grandmaster, a figure who is like a land god, crushing a half-step master to death is the same as crushing an ant to death. Xu Tong did not even meet the standard of a half-step master, and was at best an ant's leg.
When the opponent sneezes, he flies away, and he fights with the opponent and successfully repels the opponent??
This is either a joke or crazy talk. Yang Gongjing is afraid that if he says it, he will wonder if his brain has been damaged. He can even say such a thing.
Since it was a thankless task, why should Xu Tong take the credit for himself?
So he simply explained that as for the injuries on his body, he was injured by those crazy guys just to save them from the illusion.
After hearing Xu Tong's words, the expression on Yang Gongjing's face couldn't help but improve a lot, at least the look in her eyes when she looked at Xu Tong was no longer as disdainful as before.
After all, whether it is true or not, their lives were saved by Ma Hongwen. This alone is a huge credit.
"So, there is no Holy Son of White Lotus, no Yin soldiers, everything is made up by others??"
Yang Gongjing still couldn't believe it.
He said that he should have a good rest in the Yamen and he would investigate the rest.
After Yang Gongjing left, Li Xi sent the matter about Lianshan Temple to the governor's desk that night, and the governor immediately sent his people to the capital at high speed.
But this time, no matter how fast the speed is, it is not possible to get news in a day or two.
Xu Tong naturally started to slack off with peace of mind.
Daya brings a chicken back from outside every day and throws it in the kitchen. Although Li Xi doesn't know where the chicken comes from, he cooks food for Xu Tong in different ways every day. Not to mention Li Xi's craftsmanship is not bad.
In such a barren era, Li Xi actually showed amazing talent in making chickens.
After eating for several days, Xu Tong didn't feel tired. Instead, he enjoyed this time very much. After all, there is nothing more comfortable than having your enemy serve you meticulously every day.
Although he couldn't move physically, he didn't just lie on the bed. With a stick of yellow incense, he mentally retreated into the hall, read a book, and calmed himself down. It was also a pleasure to take a break from the busy work.
In this way, the group of people rested in Lianshan County for half a month. Xu Tong started walking around early. After all, the main task was not over yet. He was also worried that Zhao Xusen would come back again. If Yang Gongjing was killed, he would
But all the work was in vain.
“Brother Marco!!”
Xu Tong had just walked out of the room that day when he heard Li Xi's shout. Looking back, he saw Li Xi walking into the yard with three people with a happy face.
Li Xi walked forward and introduced to Xu Tong: "These three are my friends, Huo Wuji, Qianjibian, and Know-it-all." After speaking, he hurriedly said to the three of them: "Quick, this is the one I told you about.
Mr. Ma, who understands justice well."
When the three of them heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, and uniformly raised their hands towards Xu Tongyi: "Greetings, Mr. Ma!"
Xu Tong looked over the three of them. When he saw the familiar face of Qian Shou, the corners of his mouth could not help but raise slightly. He grinned and said: "You are welcome, Li Xi and I are as close as brothers. Since you three
He is the brother of Li Xi, and he is also the sibling of my Ma. From now on, just call me Brother Ma!"
The three of them had already learned about Ma Hongwen's background from Li Xi. They thought that because of his high status, he would look down on people like them, but they didn't expect that he would be so cordial when he opened his mouth. They looked at each other and said again: "Brother Ma!"
"Hey~~~"
Xu Tong smiled brightly, and suddenly felt that happiness is always so simple.
