Chapter 229: Rain in Wuchang
Back to the end of March, a disciple of the Beggar Gang came to the Huashan Villa on Lion Mountain in Yingtian Prefecture and conveyed Ou Zanghua's words to Yue Buqun.
Yue Buqun immediately found Ning Zhongze to discuss who should take Lingsong to Wuchang. Master Dingyi happened to be there, so she joined in.
"Senior Brother Yue, Mrs. Yue is about to give birth, so it would be better for you not to travel far away at this moment." Master Dingyi turned the Buddhist beads and gave her opinion calmly.
Yue Buqun looked at his wife. He knew that as long as he asked, his junior sister would definitely agree.
“Master Dingyi is right,” Yue Buqun retracted his gaze and said seriously, “Then let our second disciple Lao Denuo, third disciple Liang Fa and Ling Shan take the six Huashan disciples to Wuchang together!”
When Ning Zhongze heard this, he couldn't help but hold Yue Buqun's hand, his face full of happiness.
"That's great," Master Dingyi nodded and said with a smile, "I plan to let Yihe and Yiqing go with the team. They can take care of Lingsong on the way. After we get there, we can also explain Lingsong's condition to Master Ou."
"Thank you, Master Dingyi."
So on the next day, the Huashan disciples carried the little Lingsong on a stretcher onto the boat and headed west from Yingtian Prefecture. In less than ten days, they arrived at Wuchang Prefecture.
Laudenuo immediately rented a yard in the city, and everyone lived there temporarily, quietly waiting for Ou Zanghua's arrival.
A few days later, the Wuchang City was covered with a drizzle that looked like a veil, dyeing the entire Jiangxia city in the mist.
The river water ripples in the mist and rain. The boat is looming in the water, like a flowing ink painting. The willows on the river bank are green and swaying, as if greeting the pedestrians in the mist and rain.
Yue Lingshan was holding an oil-paper umbrella, walking alone in the long and lonely rain alley. In her other hand she carried a bamboo basket containing several medicinal herbs wrapped in oil paper.
After turning the corner, you will arrive at the rented yard.
She looked up and saw several people standing quietly at the door.
Yue Lingshan's eyes were almost instantly attracted to Ou Zanghua, who was dressed in a blue shirt. His figure was looming in the mist and rain, and his sleeves fluttered gently in the breeze. The fabric seemed to absorb all the light around him, making him look even deeper and more mysterious in the rain.
Its figure is as tall and straight as a pine tree, as if unaffected by wind and rain, quietly guarding this peaceful courtyard.
The shoulders are broad and solid, giving people a sense of reliability and security.
Her fingers are long and strong, gently holding the umbrella handle, appearing calm, elegant and powerful.
The air around is filled with the fragrance of soil and flowers, a fresh and natural smell that makes people feel relaxed and happy.
The drizzle wet the ground, creating ripples that echoed with the water surface in the distance, creating a poetic and picturesque scene.
Ou Zanghua seemed to have noticed something, turned his head and smiled warmly: "Junior Sister Yue, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing recently?"
"Brother Ou"
Yue Lingshan laughed out loud, and her whole person became lively again: "I, I'm fine, not really, but I'm not fine either."
"That's fine," Ou Zanghua nodded, and then introduced: "This is Brother Jie Bai, the White Lotus Envoy of the Beggars' Sect. It's thanks to him that we were able to find this place this time."
"Young Master Xie," Yue Lingshan greeted Xie Bai, and then looked at the other three: "Uncle Zuo, Uncle Ding, Uncle Lu"
Zuo Lengchan smiled but didn't care.
Ding Mian and Lu Bai also nodded in response.
The two looked at each other and felt a little emotional. Lord Ou was indeed extremely charming. It was obvious that Yue Buqun's beloved daughter had fallen in love with him!
At this time, the wooden door of the courtyard opened. When Master Yihe saw the visitors, she clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha. It is a great honor to trouble Senior Brother Ou and Senior Uncle Zuo to come from afar."
"Junior Sister Yihe."
Ou Zanghua bowed in return, and they all walked into the yard together. Everyone from the Huashan Sect came out to pay their respects.
After a round of greetings, Ou Zanghua and Zuo Lengchan, led by Yue Lingshan and Yihe, walked into the room on the left.
The disciples of Huashan Sect also gathered around, wanting to see if the number one of the older generation and the number one of the new generation had any solution.
Lingsong was half lying on the bed. When he saw the two people coming in, he shrank back in fear. The child's face was as pale as paper, without the rosy and shiny color that a child should have. His eyes were deeply sunken in his eye sockets, like two dried-up lakes.
Yue Lingshan quickly stepped forward to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, Lingsongzi. This is Brother Ou from the Nanyue Hengshan School, and Uncle Zuo from the Songshan School. They are here to help you."
After hearing this, Lingsong bowed slightly to Ou Zanghua and Zuo Lengchan and said, "Lingsong greets Senior Brother Ou and Senior Uncle Zuo."
"He is a polite boy." Upon seeing this, Zuo Lengchan's expression softened a little, no longer as stern as when he first entered the room.
Yihe on the side patiently explained Lingsong's situation to the two of them, "The treatment method my master proposed is to find an internal power master to suppress the seven internal forces in Junior Brother Lingsong's body at the same time, and then evenly draw out the seven internal forces like pulling out silk from a cocoon."
After listening to this, Zuo Lengchan walked to the bed and sat down, put one hand on Lingsong's wrist and took his pulse.
Ou Zanghua stood aside and asked casually, "Is there still no news about Junior Brother Linghu?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan said with a disappointed look, "Big Brother said he was going to Hangzhou to ask a master for help, but in fact..."
"In fact, I'm afraid he was having so much fun that he forgot everything else!" Seeing that Yue Lingshan was embarrassed to say it out loud, Lao Denuo supplemented it.
"Junior Brother Linghu is a carefree person, but he is not someone who doesn't know the difference between the important and the unimportant." Ou Zanghua said calmly, "Don't believe all rumors in the martial arts world. They may be false news spread by others."
Liang Fa said hesitantly: "But Master also said so."
"Uncle Yue is probably too anxious!" Ou Zanghua casually made up an excuse for Yue Buqun and said nothing more.
At this time, Zuo Lengchan released the boy's wrist and said solemnly, "The seven strange internal forces have cleverly formed a balance in his body. If you randomly mobilize any one of them, the balance will be broken, causing the internal force to flow backwards, and breaking tendons and veins will be the least of the problems."
"Uncle Zuo, are you sure you can suppress the seven internal forces at the same time?" Yihe asked immediately.
"Okay," Zuo Lengchan nodded, but before everyone could react with surprise, he continued, "But my internal energy contains icy energy, and Lingsong's body can't handle it."
"Alas" everyone couldn't help but sigh, and even Lingsong's eyes, which had just lit up, dimmed.
"Don't worry, let me take a look." Ou Zanghua smiled, took over Zuo Lengchan's position, and said to Yihe beside him: "Please ask Junior Sister Yihe to teach me."
"it is good."
Yihe responded, and after approaching, he instructed Ou Zanghua on how to use his internal energy to investigate, and warned him: "Lingsong is still young, Brother Ou should pay attention to controlling his internal energy."
"So that's how it is. I understand. Thank you!" Ou Zanghua nodded, pressed one hand on Lingsong's wrist, and introduced the internal force into the boy's body through the Yangchi acupoint.
Then he went up along the meridians, and with Yihe's guidance, he found the seven internal forces hidden in Lingsong's body.
After feeling it for a while, he let go of the boy's wrist and said, "Fortunately, my internal strength can suppress the seven internal forces, but it will probably take a lot of time to draw them out."
When Yue Lingshan heard this, her eyes lit up immediately and she said happily: "It doesn't matter how much time it takes, as long as Lingsong can be saved!"
The Huashan Sect disciples outside the door also laughed happily. They had known Lingsong for several months and liked this sensible boy very much.
"Mr. Ou"
Zuo Lengchan reminded him, "You are an important official of the imperial court. When you treat Lingsong, the internal energy you consumed is difficult to replenish in time. What should you do if you encounter danger at this moment?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the Huashan disciples darkened. They then remembered that the other person's identity was not something that they, the children of the underworld, could compare to.
Ou Zanghua smiled, gently touched Lingsong's head, and said casually: "It's okay, don't we still have Master Zuo and Tuotuo? Besides, Lingsong is a disciple of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, how can we just watch him die without helping him?"
Are you kidding? His "Five Dragons Divine Art" has reached maximum level and reached the realm of endless life.
If you want to use up all his internal energy, you have to use the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms with your left hand, the One Finger Zen with your right hand, and the Vajra Zen Lion's Roar. It would be impossible to use these three mana-consuming skills at the same time for several rounds.
But he himself knows it clearly, but others don’t understand!
At this moment Lingsong's heart trembled, he looked up at Senior Brother Ou, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.
Yue Lingshan also looked at Ou Zanghua with gratitude. This was the responsibility that a senior brother should have!
