"Since Third Senior Brother is here, I will first go to the outer courtyard to guide the registered disciples in their practice."
Wei Tao didn't say anything and turned to leave.
Suddenly Bai Youyou stretched out his hand.
There are still a few blood jade pills on the palm of my hand.
"If Mr. Wei doesn't take these pills, I will feel uneasy."
Zheng Hao on the side frowned, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.
But it only took him a moment to adjust.
He smiled gently and said, "Since it's Miss Bai's gift, why is Xiaoqi so dumbfounded? Why don't you quickly say thank you?"
Wei Tao was silent for a moment, bowed and took the Blood Jade Pill from Bai Youyou's hand.
Fingers and palms touch.
He suddenly became excited.
I just felt as if I had touched a piece of ten-thousand-year-old ice.
Qi and blood in the body start to circulate spontaneously, and the arms and fingertips quickly turn red.
Fortunately, it is a cold winter now, and with the protection of my sleeves, it is not too obvious.
"Miss Bai, the teacher is in the inner courtyard right now. Let's go over there."
After Zheng Ju finished his sentence, he found that Bai Youyou was still standing there.
He turned around and found that she was watching Wei Tao's leaving figure, her expression half-smiling but not smiling, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
With a slight cough, Zheng Zhi suppressed the inexplicable anger that suddenly rose in his heart, and spoke again in a gentle tone, "Miss Bai..."
Bai Youyou turned her head and glanced at him, her eyes filled with light and sparkle.
He was stunned for a moment, unable to continue talking for a while.
She withdrew her gaze and suddenly said to Wei Tao, who had already walked out of the door, "Mr. Wei, the leaf I gave you last time is a bookmark commonly used by little girls' teachers. What did you do with it?"
What did you do?
Of course it's over.
This woman wouldn't want to go back again.
Wei Tao's thoughts swirled in his mind.
There was a sad look on his face.
"This... Miss Bai, please forgive me, but I have been wearing that piece of gold leaf as an amulet.
Who knows that there was a gathering outside the city that day, but some goddamn thief stole it."
Bai Youyou was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then laughed regardless of her appearance, looking extremely happy.
Zheng Ha, who was waiting next to him, was so lost in his thoughts that he almost stared straight in his eyes.
"Is this really the case?"
"But it's not a gold leaf at all, but it makes Mr. Wei feel wronged."
She smiled so much that she bent down, showing off her graceful curves.
When Bai Youyou finally got up, four more identical yellow leaves suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Since you like the teacher's bookmarks so much, I have four more here, so I'll give them all to you."
She paused at this point and continued with some emotion.
"A few years ago, I vaguely remember that the teacher often played with these leaves, and then discarded them like old shoes and used them as bookmarks to throw around.
Now that it's in your hands, being able to cherish it as a talisman can be regarded as giving these gadgets a good home."
Whoosh!
Wei Tao raised his hand and took four slightly cold leaves.
He bowed again and said, "I would like to thank Miss Bai for the gift."
When he straightened up, he tried to show a shy and embarrassed smile on his face.
"If Miss Bai still has this kind of protective talisman, I wonder if I can spend money to buy it.
You might as well make yourself a necklace and wear it every day to protect yourself from illness and disaster."
"I only have this much. I don't know if the teacher has any more. Since you like it so much, just go and ask for it yourself from my teacher."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Youyou turned around and left.
She drifted away and soon disappeared from sight.
……………………
The outer courtyard of the martial arts hall.
More than thirty registered disciples were divided into several groups, each surrounding an iron pot, sanding and forging leather.
Wei Tao was sitting on the sidelines, playing with the Blood Jade Pill and the yellow leaves, slightly lost in thought.
He thought for a long time.
I still don't know what this Miss Bai is going to do.
In his perception, this incident itself revealed an abnormal feeling.
Regardless of whether it was in his previous life or now, he knew that he would not be rewarded if he had no merit, he would not be favored if he was not virtuous, and he would be diligent if he had nothing to do. He would be either a traitor or a thief.
Especially Wei Rongxing, who had spent half his life in the outer city of Cangyuan and was accustomed to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, reminded him more than once,
No matter how much ability you have, you can just eat a few bowls of rice. If you don't have that much ability, if you insist on eating too many meals, you might end up eating a meal that will end your life.
Although I still don’t know what Bai Youyou’s identity is, since I can chat and laugh with the eldest son of the Huang family, it’s natural that she is not an ordinary person.
So, why does she put so much color on a "little character" like him?
There may be reasons for this that he doesn't know yet.
Or is it that Miss Bai is a disciple of a famous sect and a disciple of a master, so she is naturally generous and generous and does not regard bean bags as solid food?
Gudong!
Unknowingly.
A blood jade pill has been put into Wei Tao's mouth.
Swallowed it like jelly beans.
No matter what, the benefits you get should be kept in your pocket to avoid mistakes happening later.
Qi and blood surged rapidly.
He sat still.
Follow the internal training route of Red Line Boxing and run it silently over and over again.
Time passed quickly.
The effect of a blood jade pill has been fully exerted.
Wei Tao closed his eyes and felt carefully.
I found that there was no change in the energy and blood in both arms and hands, unlike before when there was such an undetectable increase before reaching the final stage of breaking the limit.
He couldn't help but frown.
If there is no change, it means that the effectiveness of this Blood Jade Pill has been almost completely wasted.
It would be better to stay and let Shang Bian make a plan for him and use it in the practice of mountain legs.
I circulated the Qi and blood again and still found no change.
It was not until the fourth time that Wei Tao's heart suddenly moved, and he finally found something different from before.
The two whirlpools on the hands, which are called hand orifices in the "Human Anatomy Diagram", seem to have become thicker.
This change was really not obvious, so much so that it almost escaped his eyes.
In order to verify the result, he immediately took the second Blood Jade Pill.
Qi and blood surge and move according to the established route.
Until the effect of the medicine is complete.
"really……"
Wei Tao opened his eyes, thoughtfully.
The seemingly non-existent vortex in the orifice of the hand was a little bigger than before.
He stood up slowly and struck a set of ruby hammers at the edge of the martial arts training ground in the outer courtyard.
Although I didn't fully mobilize my energy and blood, I could still see some subtle effects, and I gained a lot of flavor from this practice.
Wei Tao stood still and quickly simulated in his mind the strongest power he could unleash.
If you explode with all your strength...
That is to stimulate the red line fist to the maximum extent to break the limit of Qi and blood, then explode the two vortexes in the hand orifices, and blast them out with both fists.
He cannot yet accurately estimate the destructive power it can achieve.
However, if we go back to that autumn night in the Cangmang Mountains.
Perhaps he has been able to compete head-on with Sun Xiyue's "Blooming Lotus" style and gain the upper hand.
"Senior Brother Wei, Senior Brother Wei."
A certain named disciple came closer and called softly.
Wei Tao woke up from his reverie, "What's wrong?"
"Senior Brother Zheng just asked me to inform Senior Brother Wei, saying that he wanted Senior Brother Wei to go to the inner court to discuss matters."
"Did Senior Brother Zheng say what happened?" Wei Tao asked.
The registered disciple was a little nervous and stammered, "No, no, Senior Brother Zheng only said this to me and turned around and returned to the inner courtyard."
"I see."
Wei Tao arranged his clothes, went to the well, washed his face with cold water, and walked quickly to the inner courtyard.
When he arrived at the small living room, it was already full of people.
Master Zhou sat at the front seat, and the person sitting next to him was Bai Youyou.
Next are Tan Pan, Zheng Ju, Suo Yunhai, Yan Shi and other direct disciples.
Seeing Wei Tao come in, Master Zhou put down the tea cup and cleared his throat, "Everyone is here, let's start."
"The day before yesterday, I went to the inner city for discussion. The heads of the three families of Huang Zhou and Xu were there. They were talking about the increasingly rampant banditry in recent times.
Not only is the situation outside the city grim, but even inside Cangyuan City, there have been many bloody murders.
Even the junior of the Zhao family, one of the five surnames in the inner city, disappeared inexplicably on a snowy night, and no trace has been found until now..."
"Now that the new year is approaching, the three families are determined to work together to wipe out the bandits that have wreaked havoc in the countryside in one fell swoop. This can be regarded as restoring a peaceful world hundreds of miles inside and outside Cangyuan City."
"As the martial arts school of the established sect in Cangyuan City, our sect is bound to do this good deed.
In the future, we will also join the bandit suppression team and cooperate with other gangs to clean up all the bandits in the divided areas."
"In addition to the direct disciples of the inner court, the registered disciples of the outer court must also be mobilized.
For those who go out with the team, the inner city will allocate three taels of salary to each person.
Our sect also pays a sum of money from the account, and it is also distributed according to three taels per person. After returning from victory, they can also receive key training support from the martial arts school..."
Wei Tao sat there and listened silently.
I kept rubbing those yellow leaves in my hand, thinking about how to use them to maximize the effect after getting new gold coins.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he tried his best to control himself and not to raise his head suddenly in response to stress.
Wei Tao picked up the tea cup and took a sip to calm down the sudden ups and downs of his emotions.
The waves in my heart could not calm down for a long time.
It turned out to be her.
From Yaoshi Alley in the outer city to Meiyuan in the inner city, there is that weird feeling of being spied on.
It’s actually Bai Youyou!?
She appears in Yaoshi Alley and can enter the inner city. As a disciple of a famous sect, she may also be related to the Red Lantern Society.
What other secrets does she hide?
Why, while she was giving him all kinds of things, she was letting the Red Lantern Club keep causing trouble for him.
He even wanted to take his life.
What on earth was she thinking?
What else to do?
So annoying.
Just find an opportunity to beat her to death.
If you solve her problem, you will solve all the problems.
One thought after another made Wei Tao restless.
Suddenly, he remembered the leader of the Red Lantern Club, Ding, whom he had beaten to death.
"Killing you, with your blood, will surely please her and make her contented and silent again."
"It can be considered as loosening the noose around my neck that is getting tighter and tighter."
What Altar Master Ding said echoed in Wei Tao's mind over and over again.
Could it be that it was she who was speaking, not him?
Altar Master Ding, who can transform Qi and blood, is so afraid. If it were really her, what kind of strength would she have?
Wei Tao lowered his head, stared at the rising and falling tea leaves in the porcelain cup in front of him, and slowly closed his eyes.
That strange and incomprehensible gaze still lingered on him, like a cold and venomous snake swimming slowly.
Threads of dangerous aura were gathering, and Wei Tao even felt a faint sense of murderous intent.
If the speculation is true, then no matter how powerful she is, he will definitely beat her to death.
