Mingyue was startled and said hurriedly: "Master, what's going on?"
Li Muchan said: "People in the imperial court are indeed different from people in the martial arts. They do things unscrupulously. You see him being upright and high-sounding. You don't think he would poison and plot, right?"
Sang Niang pointed to the sword in disbelief: "Sir, is this true? Is he really poisoned?"
The scabbard has a colorful antique color, showing a sense of gloom and vicissitudes of life. At first glance, you can tell that it is an ancient sword. The sword body is slender, two inches longer than an ordinary sword.
Xue Niang said: "Officials always pay attention to unscrupulous means, so martial arts figures often suffer losses when dealing with them, so they have to be careful."
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Xue Niang is still sensible."
Sang Niang rolled her eyes at him: "Sir, what should I do if I throw away this sword? What a pity. It looks like a good sword at first glance. He spent a lot of money on it!"
Xue Niang smiled: "Sir, if you can plot against someone, a sword is nothing."
Li Muchan laughed: "Xue Niang is amazing!"
Sang Niang rolled her eyes at Xue Niang again and said angrily: "Sir, tell me what you can do quickly."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "It's not difficult to do. Mingyue, give me the sword."
Mingyue handed it over carefully with both hands. After Li Muchan took it, he held the hilt of the sword with one hand and pressed the tip of the sword with the other. He gently stroked the sword body with his palm from top to bottom.
There was a stench, and the four women hurriedly covered their noses and took a step back. Li Muchan didn't seem to notice it. He looked at the sword with a smile and slowly pulled out the sheath.
"Zheng..." There was a soft cry, like a dragon's roar, and a clear light illuminated the small pavilion.
Li Muchan praised: "What a sword!"
The four girls also stared directly at the sword. The sword shone like a stream of autumn water, and the autumn water seemed to be swaying and alive.
"Sir, this is such a good sword!" Sang Niang praised.
Li Muchan flicked his finger, "Zheng..." The sword trembled like ripples in autumn water, and the soft chirping sound was endless, as if it wanted to wrap around the beam for three days.
"Here, take it!" Li Muchan threw it, and it fell like a silver dragon into Mingyue's hand.
Mingyue caught it steadily, looked at the sword in her hand in surprise, and swung it slightly, feeling it was a bit heavy, much heavier than she thought.
She looked at the blade of the sword carefully, turned it slightly, turned around after a while and said with a smile: "Master, this is called the Red Wave Sword."
Water was faintly flowing inside the sword body, and there were two characters faintly visible. She looked at them carefully for a long time, and finally recognized that these two characters were ancient characters. They were different from the current fonts, and few people could recognize them.
She is a scholarly child who has studied literature with her father since she was a child. She is quite knowledgeable and recognized these two words.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "This sword matches your mentality, which is God's will. Originally, I wanted the lady to get you a sword, but now it seems that she is not needed."
*************************************
"Sir, where are we?" Sang Niang called hurriedly.
Li Muchan looked at the three women and shook his head with a smile: "You don't have to wield swords or guns."
"Sir, please don't be biased, we also practice martial arts!" Sang Niang said coquettishly, holding Li Muchan's right arm and shaking it.
Li Muchan said: "You don't have to fight like the bright moon, practicing boxing and kicking is enough...how dare you kill people?"
Sang Niang hesitated for a moment and said angrily: "Well, it's best if you don't kill anyone. If you have to, if you don't kill people, they will kill me. I have no choice but to kill."
Xue Niang said: "It's better to run away."
Rou Niang nodded: "That's right, if they want to kill us, we can just run away and then complain to the husband. There is no need to kill them."
Li Muchan shook his head and laughed, and Mingyue rolled his eyes at her.
Sang Niang burst into laughter, then giggled non-stop, pointed at Rou Niang and said: "Giggle, it turns out you are the worst!"
Rou Niang's face turned red, and she stepped forward to tickle her. Sang Niang giggled and hid, then counterattacked, making a fuss, and soon her hair was messy, her face was crimson, and she was charming.
When they had had enough trouble, Li Muchan said: "I am now going to teach you a set of light kung fu movements, which are best used to escape. If there is an enemy, depending on your ability, it is best to run away."
The three girls were refreshed. They liked this kind of light skill the most and had always wanted Li Muchan to teach it to them. However, Li Muchan would not let go, saying that their internal strength was too weak and teaching it would be useless. It would only confuse people's minds and distract their energy.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Your internal strength is still too weak. If you encounter an enemy, run as hard as you can. If you really can't run, don't worry. Send me a message."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pressed the tops of the four women's heads one by one. Through the method of initiation, he passed the mental method into it and used his inner power to guide it and circulate it for several rounds.
Half an hour later, all the girls had learned it, and then practiced in the small courtyard. They saw each one dancing gracefully, like flying fairies, which was really moving.
Li Muchan watched them practice vigorously with smiles on their faces. This was what he enjoyed. Although Concubine Xue was beautiful, she was a ruthless woman and so strong that most men couldn't stand it.
However, this kind of woman also has her own charm. If she can conquer her, it will be the ultimate enjoyment.
He was thinking about it, and his penis became hard unconsciously. He woke up after a while, shook his head and laughed. He didn't know what happened. Since he got the second black Buddha through practice, his desire was stronger than before, and his concentration was not enough.
It seems that this black Buddha is indeed weird and can strengthen the mind. The safest way now is to practice the Observation of Heaven and Human Spirits Zhao Sutra and practice concentration, like building a dam to block strong desires.
However, this is not a good time to retreat. Nowadays, practicing the Observation of Heaven, Humans and Gods, it often lasts three to five days, or seven or eight days, which can last from more than ten days to a month.
The most urgent thing now is to think of a foolproof way to scare Concubine Xue, lest she go too far.
General Hong returned to Concubine Xue, clasped his fists and bowed in salute.
Concubine Xue sat quietly in the pavilion, holding a bag of snacks in her hand, scattering a few pieces from time to time, and clusters of koi carps rolling under her feet.
The breeze blew slowly, and the surroundings were quiet. Dressed in a white white house, her face was as white as jade, as white and warm, and her pale pink lips seemed to be shining with luster, tempting you to taste them.
A pair of eyes stare into the distance, black as diamonds, white as mercury, clear and moving.
When she heard the footsteps, she tilted her head slightly and said with an indifferent expression: "How?"
"The sword has been sent out." General Hong said respectfully.
"Is he poisoned?" Xue Fei turned her head and looked at him with clear eyes.
General Hong was a little panicked and did not dare to look into her eyes, fearing that he would lose his composure, so he whispered: "He hadn't opened it when I came out."
"Are you afraid of arousing his alertness?" Xue Fei asked.
Logically speaking, he should lure the other party to draw the sword and watch the other party deal with the poison with his own eyes before returning to take his life. He has always done things safely. This time, there is an abnormality. There is a reason for it. She will understand it as soon as she thinks about it.
General Hong nodded: "Madam, I found that this person may seem reckless, but in fact he is very scheming. I was afraid of showing my weakness, so I left with an excuse as soon as I sent the sword."
"Yeah, that's fine." Concubine Xue gently chinned her head and raised the corners of her delicate mouth: "No matter who is poisoned, he will have to come and beg me. When the time comes, let's see how I treat him!"
"Your Majesty, you are so clever!" General Hong praised.
To subjugate an enemy's army without fighting is a method that even a man cannot think of, but the empress just took it at her fingertips. When it comes to resourcefulness, the empress is truly unique and unparalleled.
Xue Fei shook her head and said: "But this person is very powerful in martial arts, I don't know if he can be forced out... Master Ouyang once said that this poison is most effective on martial arts figures. The deeper the internal strength, the greater the power. I don't know if this is true."
"
General Hong said: "Master Ouyang will definitely not tell lies."
"That's good, just wait until he comes." Xue Fei smiled faintly: "Are you ready with the manpower?"
General Hong hesitated for a moment: "Mother, in such a hurry, we can't mobilize many experts. Only those nearby can come, and there can be ten."
Xue Fei frowned: "Only ten?"
General Hong nodded and sighed: "My dear, these people are not helpful to him."
Concubine Xue frowned and said, "Forget it, let the people from Shenzong Guard take action."
General Hong shook his head: "The people of Shenzongwei seem to have something to do with him. I heard Eunuch Bai said that when he saved them, he also saved the people of Shenzongwei."
Concubine Xue hummed: "This person named Li is very lucky!"
While we were talking, a maid suddenly came over and said, "Madam, there is a Mr. Li outside the door who wants to see you."
A smile flashed across Xue Fei's face: "Is it him? He's here!"
General Hong showed a smile: "You came so quickly. It seems you were poisoned. Congratulations, Madam!"
The corners of Xue Fei's mouth were slightly raised, but her face was stern: "Don't be too happy before you succeed. Many things often fail at the last minute. Alas..., now there is no one available!"
General Hong said: "Madam, I'll go find the uncle and ask him to send men over."
Concubine Xue shook her head: "Forget it, people from the Fang Mansion should not get involved, otherwise there will be no room for change..."
"It's really impossible to get the people from Shen Zongwei to come in. Mr. Li is too courageous and can do anything. We have to be on guard." General Hong said.
He was afraid that Li Muchan would make a sudden attack, which would be detrimental to the empress, so he had spoken out his words before, without any respect or fear, and he was just a desperado.
"Forget it, I don't want to spread this matter." Xue Fei shook her head.
"Empress!" General Hong said urgently.
Concubine Xue thought for a while: "I'm sorry he doesn't dare to do anything to me. This is Fang Mansion, and there is a relationship like the second brother, so he always has scruples."
General Hong said hurriedly: "He even dares to offend the empress, how can he be bound to the Fang Mansion?"
Concubine Xue frowned and thought for a moment: "Forget it, just take my sign and go and invite Mr. Hou."
General Hong was startled.
Concubine Xue said: "No need to ask any more questions, just go to the elder brother and he will take you there naturally."
"Yes." General Hong nodded and said hurriedly: "Before I come back, your Majesty must not meet him."
"I know." Concubine Xue waved her hands, which were as white and flawless as carved from mutton-fat white jade.
General Hong hurried away, and when he was far away, he looked back worriedly. Concubine Xue was looking at the lake in deep thought. Looking at her back, General Hong felt sad. The empress did not have a happy day, she was exhausted every day.
I feel depressed every day.
He quickly left the courtyard and found the eldest son Fang Huairen. He told him what he wanted and heard that he was going to invite Mr. Hou. Fang Huairen looked hesitant.
They were in Fang Huairen's yard. The two of them were in the main hall. The bright sunlight shone on the windows. The hall was bright, soft, quiet and quiet.
"My eldest son, my wife is waiting for Mr. Hou. No matter what, we must invite Mr. Hou over." General Hong said solemnly.
Although he was anxious, his face was extremely calm. He held the tea cup steadily and looked at Fang Huairen lightly.
Fang Huairen frowned and looked at him. He was quite dissatisfied with General Hong's support, but he suppressed it. After all, he was Concubine Xue's personal guard and her confidant.
Fang Huairen thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, I'll take you there!"
Li Muchan waited outside the courtyard for a long time, shaking his head and laughing. Every move of Concubine Xue was in front of his eyes. Under the eyes of the void, there was nothing to hide.
He saw an old man with a withered face walking slowly to Concubine Xue following General Hong. He nodded slightly, and Concubine Xue stood up to greet him.
The person who can be valued so highly by her is naturally not an ordinary person. Judging from his aura, which is as solid as a pillar, his cultivation level is no less than her own.
This is the person from the Fang Mansion who has finally appeared. He has only seen it with his eyes in the void, and this time he will actually meet him.
At this moment, a maid came out and said that the queen has an invitation.
Li Muchan nodded and smiled, entered the courtyard, then came to the small lake, passed the corridor, and walked into the small pavilion. He smiled and clasped his fists: "I have met the empress."
She was still stunningly beautiful, and her face illuminated the small pavilion brightly.
Li Muchan's eyes fell behind him, looking at the old man in Ge Yi with a withered face. He was so thin that he could not hold up his clothes, as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Standing behind Xue Fei, she was like a piece of wood, lifeless. She closed her eyes and could not sense his presence. She remained in the realm of unity between nature and man.
The old man remained motionless, as if he didn't feel his gaze.
Concubine Xue picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and asked calmly: "What do you want to do here?"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "It's nothing, I came here specifically to thank you for the sword."
Concubine Xue said: "That was a gift from General Hong."
Li Muchan shook his head: "Why do you have to deceive me, the sword? There is no evil aura on that sword, and it doesn't have the aura of General Hong. It was chosen by the queen, right?"
Xue Fei's jade face did not change and she said calmly: "Forget it."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Since I'm giving you a sword, why give me poison?... I wonder if your Majesty has an antidote?"
Concubine Xue showed a faint smile, and the whole pavilion suddenly shone with light. Li Muchan looked at her, secretly thinking that this woman was so beautiful.
His blood surged, and desire rushed out again. After a while, he restrained himself and returned to normal. He turned to look at the others. General Hong and the old man Ge Yi were standing behind her. Only he could see her smiling face.
She looked at herself with a half-smile, her eyes filled with disdain, as if she was laughing at herself for being a lecherous person.
Li Muchan touched his nose and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is truly a natural beauty and is blessed with a lot of blessings. However, as a woman, with her pink skull, if she is not accompanied by kindness and gentleness, her beauty will cease to exist."
Concubine Xue said: "Don't be nagging, do you want an antidote?"
Li Muchan nodded: "Let me tell you what conditions you have."
Concubine Xue said: "You will be my bodyguard."
Li Muchan smiled bitterly: "I don't want to be a eunuch."
Concubine Xue's jade face turned red with two blushes: "You don't have to enter the palace, you just need to wait outside the palace. I will give you orders if you need anything."
Li Muchan laughed: "It turns out that I am an assassin, which is not possible."
He reacted very quickly and understood her plan as soon as he heard it. He was waiting outside the palace and could not enter the palace. He was not a bodyguard, but an assassin. Once he wanted to kill someone, it would be best to send him to do it himself.
Naturally he would not agree to such a thing.
"You don't want the antidote anymore?" Xuefei snorted.
Li Muchan shook his head: "Life is precious. If you don't have freedom, don't give up. But your calculations are wrong. If Ming Yue is poisoned and dies, I don't know what I will do."
"What do you want?" Xue Fei sneered.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows: "Then I have to ask the empress what she wants!"
Concubine Xue said coldly: "Presumptuous!"
Li Muchan smiled and took a step forward: "So what if I'm presumptuous?"
Concubine Xue turned around and said: "Mr. Hou, please take action!"
"Alas... why bother?" The old man Ge Yi slowly opened his eyes, shook his head and sighed, then he flashed and suddenly appeared in front of Li Muchan.
Li Muchan smiled: "It turns out to be Mr. Hou, I'm disrespectful."
The old man Ge Yi slowly sighed: "Young man, you have profound cultivation and are really a rare genius in this world. However, no matter how strong you are, you will ultimately be alone and weak. You cannot compete with the entire court and the entire family. Why do you bother to fight with the empress?"
Do it right?”
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Hou made a mistake. It's not that I am against the empress, but the empress insists on being against me. How can I just sit back and wait for death?"
"Quia!" Xue Fei said calmly.
Li Muchan dodged, passed Mr. Hou, and reached out to touch Concubine Xue. General Hong was behind her, and he didn't even react. Just when his hand was about to touch her face that could be broken by a blow, a cold wind surged behind him.
He felt chills all over his body, and the warning signs suddenly appeared. He didn't care about the frivolous Xue Fei, so he took a step and barely avoided it. Then another wave of cold air came, and he stepped on his steps to avoid it.
His footwork is exquisite, but Hou Lao's palm moves are endless and endless. No matter how he dodges, he will always follow him, like a maggot attached to his bones.
The two of them circled around Xue Fei and General Hong to start a fight. General Hong protected Xue Fei behind him, but he was a little at a loss. The two of them were suddenly in front and sometimes behind. They were unpredictable. He couldn't protect Xue Fei at all, or even react.
But come here, you look like a fool.
This feeling was extremely bad. The martial arts he was proud of were like a child's skills in front of the two of them. This sense of powerlessness and frustration made his expression dim. If it were not supported by the belief in protecting Xue Fei, he would have covered his face and run away.
Xue Fei's face was pale, her mouth was pursed tightly, and she felt a little regretful in her heart. If she had known that Li Feng was so powerful, she would have used another method. There were so many ways to subdue people's hearts, just like her second brother, why did she have to force him.
But the thought flickered for a moment, then disappeared immediately, and a vicious thought came back: "Since you have offended someone, you must subdue him. If you can't subdue him, you must kill him. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles!"
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and the two people separated quickly.
Li Muchan drew an arc with his feet and kept retreating until he reached the railing. He took a long breath and laughed and said: "Okay! Enjoy it!"
Mr. Hou's body was like floating catkins, he stepped back ten feet away and looked at Li Muchan with a frown.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Lao Hou practices the Yin-Cold Heart Technique, and I practice the Masculine Heart Technique. We are relatively the best. Come on, come on!"
His body flashed, and he suddenly arrived in front of Mr. Hou, and slapped him on the forehead with his palm.
Hou Lao dodged and punched him in the chest. Li Muchan's left palm met the fist, and his right palm remained unchanged. Hou Lao punched him in the lower abdomen.
It sounds slow, but in fact it is extremely fast, like two shadows. Their moves are simple, just the word "quick", which looks light and airy.
"Bang" the two of them stepped back, and the hot wind drifted in the pavilion.
With this palm, Li Muchan obviously had the upper hand. After eliminating Hou Lao's inner strength, General Hong still had some strength left. General Hong whispered: "My Lady, it's not a good time to stay here for a long time. Let's go."
Xue Fei shook her head and stared at the two of them stubbornly.
At this time, the two people's feet were not moving, only their hands were moving. You came and I went, each move often changed in the middle, and no move could be used to the end. Once it touched, it left, and once it changed, it changed again. However, the two people's hands were seen.
They are flying like four shadows, and the palms are invisible.
The two of them hit each other quickly, and after a hundred moves passed in the blink of an eye, Li Muchan's left hand suddenly turned into a fist, and with a fierce punch, it collided with Mr. Hou's fist.
There was a crisp "pop" sound, like pebbles falling into a well, and their fists stuck together, motionless.
Li Muchan punched again with his right hand, and the old man's left hand turned into a palm to catch it, but there was no sound.
In this way, the two people intertwined their hands and stuck together, with only their clothes undulating like waves.
General Hong's face changed slightly, and Concubine Xue frowned and said, "Are they using their internal strength?"
"Yes." General Hong frowned.
Xue Fei snorted: "Then he is looking for death. How many years has Hou Lao practiced, and how many years has he practiced!"
Although she comes from a martial arts family, she has little experience in this area. She has hated practicing martial arts since she was a child. As the daughter of the Fang family, she does not know any martial arts.
But as the saying goes, luck and misfortune depend on each other. Fortunately, she doesn't know martial arts. If she learned martial arts, she wouldn't be able to enter the palace, and she wouldn't have the indescribable status she has today.
General Hong frowned and stared at the two of them, looking at their situation and shaking his head.
In his opinion, the outcome of these two people is really difficult to predict. The number of 50 to 50 is unpredictable for Hou Lao, and the same is true for Li Feng. Only the two of them know who is strong and who is weak, and he is afraid that they will also
Not sure.
"Just in time, kill him while he can't move!" Xue Fei snorted.
"This..." General Hong hesitated: "I'm afraid I might offend Mr. Hou, is that okay?"
He is a member of the court and the army, and does not have to abide by the rules of the martial arts, but Mr. Hou is different. If he takes action at this time, it will be tantamount to helping Mr. Hou and looking down on him. This is what people in the martial arts think.
Concubine Xue pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Kill the person first, and then I will naturally find a solution from Mr. Hou."
Previously, she wanted to subdue Li Feng and rely on him for help, but now she has changed her mind. Mr. Hou can't suppress him. If he really rebels, no one can control him. This man has a strong character and a proud character. Keep him.
It's useless, so it's better to destroy it to avoid future troubles.
"...Yes." General Hong nodded slowly.
He looked around and said, "My dear, please step back."
Concubine Xue took a few steps back and reached the westernmost pillar. Li Muchan and Mr. Hou were next to the eastern pillar, so they were the farthest apart.
General Hong took the tea cup from the table and threw it towards Li Muchan.
"Boom!" With a crisp sound, the tea cup suddenly exploded two inches away from Li Muchan's body, forming a cloud of powder that floated down and landed behind Li Muchan.
Li Muchan sighed: "Such behavior is really depressing!... General Hong, I salute you in vain. If you do this again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"It's only your fault for offending the empress!" General Hong sighed, and took out a dagger from his waist. It was dark and dull, as if it was made of burnt wood.
He stared at the dagger for a long time, then raised his head and sighed, then rushed towards him and stabbed his vest with the dagger silently.
Li Muchan snorted coldly, shook his hands, and immediately the two of them flew out at the same time, just avoiding the stab. He was in the air and tapped lightly with his index finger.
"Boo!" There was a crisp sound, and a blood flower bloomed from General Hong's chest.
He flew out and hit the pillar next to him hard. His body slid along the pillar and fell to the ground. He looked exhausted and clutched his chest with his right hand.
"General Hong!" Concubine Xue was shocked.
"Empress, Gui... Guiyuan Dan." General Hong said with great difficulty, a mouthful of blood gushing out from his mouth.
Concubine Xue looked pale and hurriedly clapped her jade palms: "Here comes someone!"
Eunuch Bai trotted into the small pavilion. Seeing this, he hurriedly said: "General Hong!"
Concubine Xue said: "Bai Jiu, stop talking nonsense and give him the Guiyuan Pill!"
Eunuch Bai hurriedly took out a jade porcelain from his arms, opened it carefully, poured out a wax-sealed Yinhong Dan Pill, crushed it and sent it to General Hong's mouth.
"What's going on? This is..." Eunuch Bai muttered while feeding the medicine.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang——!"
Li Muchan and the old man Ge Yi were separated and combined, fighting each other with every move, insisting on being the best. Elder Hou had always been calm and cultivated his mind to be as calm as water, but at this time, he actually had a competitive spirit.
"Bang!" Eunuch Bai hurriedly raised his head and exclaimed in surprise: "My dear, hurry up!"
Li Muchan and Mr. Hou collided and broke a pillar of the pavilion. Judging from the strength of the two of them, they didn't care and just wanted to knock each other down.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
The small pavilion shook, and the two people suddenly faced each other across a pillar. They competed with each other through the mountain. The two people pressed their palms against the pillar, motionless, looking calm, but their internal energy was like a river or sea, rushing and turbulent, and extremely dangerous.
"Mr. Li, what kind of trouble is this? Stop it quickly and don't tear down this pavilion." Eunuch Bai saw that his wife was standing proudly as before, with no intention of leaving, so he hurriedly walked to Li Muchan's side to persuade her.
Li Muchan remained motionless and opened his mouth: "Eunuch Bai, this is a long story. I will talk to you in detail later. You'd better go."
"My Mr. Li, you can't hit me any more, otherwise you will hurt your wife." Eunuch Bai said urgently.
Li Muchan smiled: "At this point, we can only decide the outcome. Your empress insists on putting me to death, so what can I do?"
Concubine Xue said coldly: "Li, do you want the antidote?"
Li Muchan laughed: "You can keep the antidote, and you can show off your little tricks in front of me. I have done all these tricks before I was ten years old!"
"Okay, Mr. Li, just wait!" Concubine Xue stamped her feet and sneered, and left the pavilion with great dignity.
