When the ship docked, Bai Xiaowen and his two men, surrounded by a group of soldiers, soon saw Yu Dayou who was unconscious, and Sun Xuanqing, a Quanzhen Taoist priest who was meditating next to him.
Someone had already gone to report to Governor Hu Zongxian.
Sun Xuanqing opened his eyes and glanced at Bai Xiaowen: "My little fellow Taoist has a bit of yin energy. It seems that the trip to Ghost Reef will not be easy."
Bai Xiaowen smiled, took out the few pale white flowers, and handed them to Sun Xuanqing: "Fortunately, it fulfilled its mission."
Sun Xuanqing nodded and took the ghost wormwood.
"Taoist Priest, in order to get this ghost reef, I killed many demons, including two demon leaders who were well-established." Bai Xiaowen blinked, "They all say that slaying demons has merit. I don't know whether it is true or not.
?”
Sun Xuanqing squinted his eyes slightly: "Of course there is merit."
"But doesn't this mean that I have robbed the Taoist priest of his merits? Isn't that right? Although I am a Taoist cultivator, I am also a lay disciple. If I don't practice immortality, what is the use of this merit? Why don't I sell this merit to the Taoist priest?
." Bai Xiaowen said.
Sun Xuanqing understood what Bai Xiaowen meant, and he laughed and said: "I have nothing but good things, so how can I buy your merits? Besides, it's not my turn to buy. If you want to sell, just go to the owner to sell."
Bai Xiaowen curled his lips.
Li Shuyi asked through the team channel: "What riddles are you playing with this Taoist priest?"
"It's nothing, I just want to ask for some extra rewards. This old Taoist priest is so stingy that he pushed me to Hu Zongxian and Yu Dayou. Forget it, I can only ask these two people for the reward for the A-level elite mission."
In the spirit world, especially in the ancient Chinese plane where the gentleman is respected, a thick skin is a must. Anyway, if you don’t get a reward, you won’t suffer, but if you get it, you will earn it. This Quanzhen Taoist priest Sun Xuanqing even gave it
For rewards, Bai Xiaowen will still look for Hu Zongxian, and Yu Dayou wants rewards. For sheep, if you catch one more, you will get one.
In the world of the Three Kingdoms, Bai Xiaowen implemented this point. If he hadn't been so shameless, how could Guan Yu have given guidance to him and Li Shuyi twice?
Of course, being thick-skinned requires a certain degree of control without affecting interpersonal relationships. If the favorability level is greatly reduced because of temporary benefits, then the gains outweigh the losses.
Sun Xuanqing then said: "I am now going to do something to drive away the evil spirits for General Yu. All other people should retreat. Brother Bai, come and protect me."
Bai Xiaowen happily agreed.
This miscellaneous group of people included Li Shuyi. She quietly curled her lips and left Yu Dayou's quiet room with a group of soldiers who were watching eagerly.
"Daozhang Sun, let's get started."
"Okay, please little fellow Taoist, please lift General Yu's quilt and change his clothes." Sun Xuanqing held the ghost wormwood in his hand and looked intently.
Bai Xiaowen: "..." Ganqing's job of protecting the law sounds high-end, but it's actually just a casual job?
Lifting Yu Dayou's quilt and removing Yu Dayou's underwear, Bai Xiaowen could see a dark red wound on the other party's strong chest. It was swollen to the height of two fingers and was about the size of a bowl. If he touched it slightly
, hard and hot.
Sun Xuanqing sighed: "Japanese magic weapons are blindly pursuing the power and cruelty, but in fact they are greedy for merit and rush forward, and they fall into the inferior category."
Sun Xuanqing picked up a stick of ghost wormwood and handed it to Bai Xiaowen: "Little fellow Taoist, hold this ghost wormwood and stand beside General Yu. Don't move at all."
Bai Xiaowen nodded.
Sun Xuanqing took a breath, put his fingers together, and patted Yu Dayou's body wildly.
With the rain of fingertips, the wound on Yu Dayou's chest became more and more swollen, and there was a faint red mist steaming, like a volcano about to erupt.
However, the red mist curled up as if it was attracted. At the same time, the ghost wormwood also emitted white mist, which intersected with the red mist and became dense and dense.
There was a loud sound in Bai Xiaowen's ears, and visions grew in front of his eyes. In a trance, he saw a dark red sword coming towards his face! He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he remembered Sun Xuanqing's instructions, stopped abruptly, and stood on the spot.
With a bang, the dark red sword struck Bai Xiaowen. Bai Xiaowen's 44 points of mental power took effect without being affected at all, and the illusion dissipated.
Sun Xuanqing nodded approvingly: "Young Taoist Daoist's foundation is not shallow." He grabbed Yu Dayou's shoulder with one hand and lifted it hard. Yu Dayou, who was in a coma, was forced from lying on his back to sitting down.
Sun Xuanqing stepped on the pole, stepped behind Yu Dayou, and another round of raindrop-like fingering clicked across Yu Dayou's back.
"puff!"
Yu Dayou opened his mouth and spat out dark red blood clots, and the swelling on his chest shot out wisps of fire energy, which was slowly absorbed by the ghost wormwood like a spiritual snake.
Seeing that the original pale white flowers of Artemisia vulgaris turned into crimson, Sun Xuanqing whispered: "Change the dressing."
Bai Xiaowen was well prepared and grabbed a second stick of wormwood to replace it.
Sun Xuanqing said: "The poison of fire is so strong that it needs to be defused with extremely yin substances. Otherwise, if the evil spirits are forcibly exorcised, even if General Yu saves his life, I am afraid that most of his martial arts will be destroyed..."
His explanation was naturally meant for Bai Xiaowen.
At this time, the fire energy in the chest experienced a general eruption, accompanied by the injection of blood. The fire energy was so fierce that it evaporated the blood and turned it into red mist, which was neutralized and resolved by the ghost wormwood.
Yu Dayou suddenly opened his eyes and roared: "Kill me!" He punched out subconsciously.
The target of this punch was exactly in the direction of Bai Xiaowen. Bai Xiaowen cursed secretly and could only summon a skeleton sword and shield hand to bear the blow.
Bang!
The skeleton sword and shield hand turned into broken bones and flew out. Yu Dayou's fist still had power and hit Bai Xiaowen's chest.
Bai Xiaowen felt as if he had been hit by a locomotive. If he had taken advantage of the situation and retreated, he would not have suffered too much damage. However, Sun Xuanqing had warned Gui Hao not to move at all. In desperation, Bai Xiaowen could only bear the residual power of this punch.
With a buzz, Bai Xiaowen felt his ears ringing, and he was almost beaten to the point of vomiting blood. Fortunately, he had life sharing. Although he suffered more than 80 points of damage, only 40 or 50 points were shared, so he could still withstand it.
Although Yu Dayou felt severe pain in his chest, the original swelling had subsided. After the initial punch, he looked around blankly.
Sun Xuanqing stopped and said with a smile: "General Yu has been sleeping for many days and finally woke up."
"Where am I?" Yu Dayou asked a very clichéd question.
"You're in bed." Bai Xiaowen rubbed his sore chest and said with a curl of his lips.
"..."
The soldiers who had been waiting outside the door heard Yu Dayou's voice and crowded in one after another.
"General!"
"Lord General!"
The room was full of soldiers kneeling on the floor. Yu Dayou looked around and finally reacted: "How long have I been asleep?"
I thought of a familiar voice outside the door: "Zhifu, you have been in a coma for more than half a month. If it weren't for Master Sun's help, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to wake up!"
The door opened, and Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang Province, strode in, followed by the talented Xu Wei. Hu Zongxian and Xu Wei had already arrived when Sun Xuanqing was exorcising evil spirits, but they were worried that they would rush in and disturb Sun Xuanqing, so they waited outside the door.
When Yu Dayou saw his immediate superiors coming to greet him, he quickly turned over to get out of bed.
Hu Zongxian quickly stopped him: "Zhifu's injury has not healed, so there is no need to be polite."
"The general's disheveled clothes made the governor laugh," Yu Dayou said.
On the other hand, Sun Xuan had called the doctor early in the morning to bandage Yu Dayou's wounds, and then Yu Dayou put on a close-fitting shorts. Finally, he no longer had to let the people in the room see those two strong chest muscles.
Soldier Zhang Ting and others came forward to wait on Yu Dayou to dress. At the same time, he briefly told Yu Dayou that after he fell into coma, Hu Zongxian invited Quanzhen Taoist Sun Xuanqing to come for diagnosis and treatment. At the same time, Bai Xiaozhenren returned from killing the Japanese and took the task of collecting medicine.
Then Sun Xuanqing exorcised evil spirits for him...
Yu Dayou sat on the bed and clasped his fists: "Thank you, Master Sun, for saving your life."
Sun Xuanqing waved his hand and said: "You don't have to thank me, just thank your family governor... Oh, and this little Daoist Bai. The punch you gave me when you just woke up really shocked me. Fortunately, Bai Xiaodao
You have a deep foundation as a friend, and even though I punched you hard, you didn't move at all, and the ritual of exorcising evil spirits was not broken."
Only then did Yu Dayou remember the scene when he woke up, with an apologetic expression on his face, and apologized to Bai Xiaowen.
Of course Bai Xiaowen stated that he would not care.
Spiritual world rules prompt information:
"The anti-Japanese Ming army general Yu Dayou's favorability towards you has increased. The current favorability level is: friend."
Bai Xiaowen secretly felt that the punch was worth it. Judging from the strength of the punch just now, Yu Dayou is stronger than the Black Zombie King and the White Ghost Queen. He is probably a "rare leader" level strongman. Such a strong person
It is not easy to increase the favorability of the person.
Everyone chatted for a few more words, and Hu Zongxian said: "This time Zhifu was able to wake up, the real person should be the main contributor. I will report to your majesty the meritorious service of the real person." In his words, he was quite polite to Sun Xuanqing.
Sun Xuanqing nodded: "It's so helpful, Lord Governor."
Hu Zongxian added: "Bai Xiaozhenren took the trouble to go to the Japanese pirates' lair and pick the elixir. His contribution is not small. If you were in our army, I would report it to the Ming court and get promoted to a noble rank. It's a pity that Xiaozhenren wanted to do it.
If not, then I can only give you gold and silver as reward."
Spiritual world rules prompt information:
"A-level elite side mission: looking for medicine has been completed."
"Your reputation in the anti-Japanese Ming army camp has been improved. Your current level is: respect."
"You earned 3,000 merit points."
"You have obtained 10 precision-cast gold ingots and 50 snow-white silver ingots."
The rewards for this A-level elite mission are really rich. The last gold and silver ingots can all be taken out of the spirit world. Compared with the boatload of wealth captured by Bai Xiaowen, they are two different concepts.
Of course, Hu Zongxian's willingness to benefit Bai Xiaowen so readily also had something to do with the ship of goods he handed over.
Bai Xiaowen said: "Duke, this is a reply, please read it."
Hu Zongxian took Wang Cuiqiao's reply and looked around at everyone in the room. Yu Dayou hadn't noticed yet, so Xu Wei could only point it out and said: "General Yu, the Governor will discuss confidential matters next, so please step aside."
Yu Dayou suddenly understood and quickly asked Zhang Ting and others to go out.
Sun Xuanqing said: "That poor Taoist also resigned."
"Why should Zhenren be in such a hurry to leave? I have no intention of hiding this kind of military affairs from you. There are still places where we need to rely on Zhenren." Hu Zongxian quickly persuaded him to stay.
Sun Xuanqing shook his head: "How can I, a monk, get involved in military affairs? This time I was invited to come here just to treat illnesses and save people. Now that General Yu has woken up and is being cared for by doctors, he will recover in just a few days, so there is no need for me to do it again."
Stayed."
After a pause, Sun Xuanqing looked at Bai Xiaowen and said, "Fellow Taoist, I am going to the capital to pray for rain. I wonder if you are willing to go with me?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was a little surprised.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "Master, you are really powerful. You can call the wind and rain. Aren't you just like a god? I don't have this ability, so I won't get involved."
Sun Xuanqing laughed and said: "What does it mean to call for wind and rain? If it is a very small-scale wind and rain, I can still do it, but what your majesty wants is heavy rain to alleviate the drought in Shandong and Henan. This is the movement of the glorious heaven. Except for those who have obtained the true secret of the immortal way, the legendary
Mighty, who has this ability?"
"Then you still go to pray for rain?" Bai Xiaowen said, "What if it doesn't work and you are condemned by your Majesty?"
Sun Xuanqing smiled and said: "Although I don't know how to pray for rain, I know how to look at the sky with both hands. I can roughly calculate when it will rain. As long as I build an altar to pray for blessings at that time, isn't the rain what I want?
?”
"Brilliant." Bai Xiaowen admired him.
As for Sun Xuanqing telling the truth in front of Xu Wei, Hu Zongxian and others, it is not surprising. As long as Sun Xuanqing is believed by the emperor, it does not matter whether others believe it or not.
In addition, Hu Zongxian would not have enough food and nothing to do to report it. Today, Emperor Jiajing believes in Taoism, so what is the use of exposing it? Sun Xuanqing himself has Taoism, and a small-scale artificial rainfall will be carried out. Will Emperor Jiajing believe it?
If you believe Sun Xuanqing, Hu Zongxian will be in trouble.
Therefore, a smart man like Governor Hu would never expose him in a memorial. On the contrary, he would praise Sun Xuanqing's contribution to the great cause of fighting the Japanese in the memorial - after all, he and Sun Xuanqing had a personal relationship. If Sun Xuanqing was favored by the emperor, he would also
There is one more way.
"It seems you don't want to follow me." Sun Xuanqing shook his head.
Bai Xiaowen felt a little regretful in his heart: "My dear, I came to help Governor Hu to pacify the Japanese out of righteous indignation. If the Japanese invaders are not vindicated for a day, I will not be able to overcome this hurdle in my heart. I hope you can forgive me." Can he not regret it?
Obviously, Sun Xuanqing's line can also be explored in depth.
However, if the main task is not completed, everything is in vain, so Bai Xiaowen can only reluctantly decline.
Sun Xuanqing nodded and said: "The most taboo thing for those who practice Taoism is to have obsessions. Since you have such ambitions, then do your best."
Hu Zongxian sent Sun Xuanqing to the door, and then sent him carriages, horses, and soldiers. However, Sun Xuanqing refused, took only 20 taels of consultation money, rode a mule, and leisurely went to Beijing alone.
Gradually, Sun Xuanqing's figure riding a mule disappeared at the end of the road, and only a "Good Song" echoed in the air, gradually becoming inaudible.
