At the fourth watch, Qiao Xuan was awakened by the sound of the night watch. He rubbed his face in a daze, trying to wake himself up.
He suddenly rubbed the mud off his hands and sniffed it. The smell was really sour. He suddenly shouted in disgust,"What is this? Didn't I just wash it yesterday? Sigh! I have to wash it again."
Qiao Xuan quickly got up and lit the lamp. He then took off his clothes and wiped his body with cold water, wiping off a lot of mud.
However, he felt that he seemed to be different. He quickly sensed it carefully, but he couldn't tell what was different. He shook his still dizzy head and stopped thinking about it.
Looking at the sky through the window, Qiao Xuan hurriedly packed up, put away his things, blew out the candle, locked the door, and rushed to the north gate of the Martial Emperor Zhao's Mansion.
Today, as soon as Qiao Xuan arrived at the door of the emergency room, Niu Meng came over.
Niu Meng was about to say something when Qiao Xuan greeted him, but the door opened.
Niu Meng quickly gave Qiao Xuan a look and led him into the room.
Not long after, the two of them left the room again.
Then, he went to the martial arts practice field and began to work as busy as yesterday.
When it was close to the fifth watch, the disciples entered the martial arts field one after another, and then the sound of training could be heard.
The two of them peeked and chatted.
Not long after, Old Yang also came over.
The two of them quickly kept quiet and stood solemnly. Seeing Old Yang enter the arena, Niu Meng snickered and asked,"Xuan 'zi, did you feel good yesterday?”
"Ah!" Qiao Xuan cried out in surprise. Seeing that Niu Meng seemed to know something, he still pretended to be confused and asked,""What?"
Niu Meng smiled evilly and pointed at Qiao Xuan, shouting,""Don't pretend, Uncle Yang. He stabbed me in the past and told me to keep it a secret. However, he thought I was stupid so he didn't stab me anymore. Now that you're here, I'm more at ease.”
Only then did Qiao Xuan confirm that Niu Meng really knew, but he promised to keep it a secret, so he picked up the things that both of them knew.
Qiao Xuan still wanted to know what happened after that, so he asked a few questions.
Niu Meng recounted everything that he had gone through. In the end, he patted Qiao Xuan's shoulder and said,""Brother, you have to hold on! I don't want to be stabbed again."
Qiao Xuan saw his fear and asked,""Why are you still hiding from these young masters?”
Niu Meng replied with lingering fear," How can I compare to those young masters? Besides, this Old Yang is too ruthless. He only practices new techniques on us. We suffer all the hardships, but those young masters suffer all the blessings. Understand?"”
Qiao Xuan didn't comment on his words and responded casually. Feeling a little hungry, he called out to Niu Meng and took out a steamed bun to eat.
Seeing that Qiao Xuan had already started eating, Niu Meng took out two pancakes and started chewing.
The two of them continued to peek as they ate.
Qiao Xuan realized that he had only seen these people's moves once or twice before he remembered them all. He wondered,""How did my memory become so good?”
He then stole a glance at Niu Meng. Seeing that he did not notice anything unusual about him, he was slightly relieved. He quickly memorized these people's moves. It was really dazzling.
Unknowingly, the two of them were immersed in it.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was noon. It was only when the disciples had dispersed and arrived at the door in a mess that the two suddenly woke up.
The disciples glanced at him arrogantly and said contemptuously,""I really didn't expect that these two dog slaves also wanted to practice martial arts.”
Qiao Xuan saw that these people were so vile and was about to refute them when he saw Niu Meng anxiously give him a look. He could only lower his head and grit his teeth without saying a word.
These disciples snorted coldly and walked over arrogantly.
After these disciples had walked far away, Niu Meng jumped to Qiao Xuan's side and patted his chest, saying,""That was close! I'm afraid that you've just arrived and don't understand the rules here. If you really offend these young masters and young ladies, not only you, but even I might be beaten to death.”
Qiao Xuan heard Niu Meng's words and said sadly,""I'm really sorry! I almost implicated you."
Niu Meng quickly waved his hand and said with a smile," That's not what I meant. Right now, you and I don't have much ability, so we have to be slaves with our tails between our legs. When our fists become stronger in the future, I'll see who's the dog. Ptui!"”Then, he spat.
Qiao Xuan sighed and said helplessly,""Forget it, let's go in and clean up!”
Then, he walked into the training field with Niu Meng. One of them put away the equipment, the other turned off the fire and refilled the oil. Then, they swept the field together.
As Qiao Xuan worked, he thought,""I almost harmed Meng Zi just now. I must not be rash in the future, especially not to implicate others.”He suddenly remembered the faces of those disciples and could only work hard in anger.
Niu Meng took a few glances and could only shake his head with a smile. After about half a day, the two of them finally finished their work, sweating profusely. Then, they locked the door of the martial arts field and went to the room to hand over the keys.
Old Yang still let Niu Meng leave first. Niu Meng smiled and glanced at Qiao Xuan before running away. Then, Old Yang pointed at the pancakes and soup on the table.
Qiao Xuan sat down silently and started eating. Suddenly, he asked in confusion,""Uncle Yang, I didn't see you leave the Martial Arts Practice Field. Where did this meal come from?”
Old Yang drank a few mouthfuls of wine and smiled."This room has a back door, it's convenient to enter and exit the training field.”
Qiao Xuan finally understood and looked at him strangely. Old Yang saw Qiao Xuan's strange expression.
"I know what you're thinking. I entered the training grounds from the main entrance to see if you two were slacking off.”Old Yang said with a smile.
Qiao Xuan thought to himself that Old Yang was really something. He could only roll his eyes at Old Yang, only to see Old Yang say,""You have a good character. Not only did you keep your mouth shut, but you also didn't badmouth me with Little Meng.”
"Ah…!" Qiao Xuan's right hand trembled, and the flatbread almost fell off. He asked in disbelief,""You…you're not listening to us, are you?”
Old Yang nodded calmly and sneered,""I didn't just listen to the wall, I even saw what happened at the gate.”
Qiao Xuan stood up abruptly. Seeing Old Yang squinting at him, he could only sit down slowly and eat his pancakes and soup expressionlessly.
"Not bad!" Old Yang praised. He was even more tolerant than before. Little Xuan 'zi, you have to remember that fists are the absolute principle. In the future, when you become stronger, you can trample on these disciples as you wish and prevent others from eavesdropping. But now, you have to clamp your tail tightly.”
Qiao Xuan gritted his teeth and nodded, saying in a deep voice,""I've learned my lesson! I've really been taught a lesson!" He immediately wolfed down the soup.
Seeing that the food was gone, Old Yang got up and walked into the house.
Qiao Xuan wiped his mouth and quickly followed. This time, he didn't need Old Yang to say anything and immediately took off his pants.
Old Yang took a look and saw that Qiao Xuan was so self-aware, so he asked,""Do you still want to tie him up this time?"
Qiao Xuan didn't want to be tied up, but he still said,""You can tie it up! I'm afraid that I can't help but scratch and scratch. I'll really ruin the big deal.”
Old Yang chuckled a few times and tied Qiao Xuan up like yesterday, but it seemed to be tighter than yesterday.
"Uncle Yang, do you have to tie them up like this when you perform acupuncture and massage on those people?”Qiao Xuan asked with a frown.
Old Yang shook his head and said coldly,""They don't have the qualifications to enjoy my acupuncture technique.”
"This is called enjoyment!" Qiao Xuan smiled bitterly.
Old Yang laughed fiercely." You better endure it until you die. Remember that the pain you suffered is a great merit. Come, hold it in your mouth!"”
Qiao Xuan looked at the wooden block in front of him. He knew that Old Yang was teasing him about the " dog slave " incident, but he was no longer angry. He opened his mouth and bit down on the wooden block. Then, he saw Old Yang take out the Coiling Dragon Needle and quickly pricked himself into a porcupine.
Qiao Xuan didn't feel anything at the moment. He looked down at himself and couldn't help but reveal a funny expression. When he looked up, he saw Old Yang looking at him nervously.
Qiao Xuan bit on the wooden block and snorted." I'm fine. What are you nervous about?!"”He didn't care if Old Yang understood or not.
Old Yang waved his hand and said in a deep voice,"I know. This time, I changed the medicinal liquid. It will only act up in a while. You have to be prepared!”
Before she could finish her sentence, Qiao Xuan was already biting the wooden block. His eyes were bulging out, and his entire body was covered in sweat. His entire body was twisting and struggling. If it wasn't for the fact that he was tied up tightly, he would have rolled around the room.
Just now, after Qiao Xuan heard Old Yang's words, he understood that he would only flare up later and was just about to prepare himself.
He suddenly felt as if all the acupuncture points in his body were exploding. The intense pain was like a waterfall that covered the sky and covered the earth, continuously crushing him.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan was clenching the wooden block tightly. His teeth were about to shatter, his eyes were black, and his face was pale. Just as he was about to die from the pain, the pain suddenly subsided, and the blood qi in his body surged like a dragon.
Moreover, his eyes were as bright as the stars, and his face was as brilliant as purple clouds. It was as if he had taken a divine pill, and his entire body seemed to be shining.
Old Yang saw that the kid had gone through it, so he relaxed and asked,""Is this appetizer okay?" Then, he pulled out all the Coiling Dragon Needles.
Qiao Xuan spat out the piece of wood with difficulty and coughed violently a few times before saying with a bitter smile,""I'm about to lose my life, and you still want an appetizer? Forget it, I'm not afraid now. If you have any tricks, just call me!”
"Don't tell anyone about what I'm going to do.”Old Yang's expression was extremely serious, and he nodded solemnly when he saw Qiao Xuan.
" From now on, not only must you endure the pain, but you must also focus on the acupuncture point I pricked. Remember how many times the acupuncture point vibrated in that moment of thought. Do you understand?"”
Qiao Xuan shook his head dumbly and frowned.""I don't understand. What is willpower? What was a thought? And what is acupoint vibration?"
Old Yang knew that he was a novice in martial arts, so he could only explain helplessly,"" Mind guarding is your true consciousness. You have to think about a certain place at all times. For example, if you like a girl, you will think about her all the time. Understand…"
"Then what is true intent?" Qiao Xuan could not help but interrupt when he heard new words.
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Old Yang berated him roughly. He hated it when others interrupted him. There were so many questions. When would it end?
Then, seeing that the kid was a little resentful, he explained,"In a single thought, it refers to the birth and death of a thought. It's an extremely short period of time.”
Qiao Xuan seemed to understand and nodded silently.
Suddenly, Old Yang stopped talking. She quickly looked at him carefully and saw that he seemed to be pondering about something. He slowly revealed an indescribable…What was it?
Qiao Xuan thought for a moment. Oh, right, it was that indescribable charm. Back in the Cloud Locking Cave, the green-robed man had a similar charm.
"Are you alive?" Old Yang suddenly asked mysteriously.
Qiao Xuan was baffled. He thought to himself,'You look like a god just now. Why would you ask such a stupid question?' He really wanted to say,'Are you blind?' But he still replied,""Of course I'm alive. Why are you asking this?”
"How do you prove that you are alive?" Old Yang didn't answer and asked instead, as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Qiao Xuan was so annoyed that he thought to himself," Are you sick?" He really wanted to ignore him, but he didn't dare to say it. He helplessly replied,""I can eat, drink, and talk. All these can prove that I'm alive.”
