Sunrise in the East - Smile Allure

word.

This is the second time Dongfang Bubai saw He Qicheng's words, and he couldn't help laughing secretly.On this seal is the city character in vermilion seal script, which is barely on the table. I don't know who asked He Qicheng to engrave the seal. The calligraphy skills are much better than him.

Dongfang Bubai used his lightness kung fu all the way to chase down the mountain, and he caught up with He Qicheng's caravan after walking for a long time.At this time, he already knew that He Qicheng was going to Henan Mansion after redeeming the medicinal materials, so he didn't stop right away, walked through the forest, and waited at the front.After following for two days in a row, Dongfang Bubai had already figured out He Qicheng's habit of staying in the hotel, and he was often able to book a room adjacent to He Qicheng first, and after waiting in it for half a day, He Qicheng would come.

When the seven days of taking the medicine expired, Dongfang Bubai sat cross-legged on the bed as soon as he arrived.As soon as he practiced Xuan Gong, he found that the blockage in the meridians of the previous few days really disappeared.Not only that, but the original skills also flowed back from the limbs and bones.When the twelve small Zhoutians and one big Zhoutian have completed their work, the internal force in the dantian has recovered to [-]%.At this moment, Fang Fang felt happy in his heart, if he hadn't worried that He Qicheng was still next door, he would have wished to raise his head to the sky and howl.

After practicing, there is still more than an hour before dawn.He took out the method of improvement written by He Qicheng that day from his bosom, tried it carefully, and found that when he was practicing, he was not as easily disturbed by foreign objects as he used to be.After practicing for an hour, I found that the zhenqi in the dantian had increased again, and I couldn't help but feel secretly happy.At this rate of practice, it will only take a few months to fully recover martial arts.Thinking that although He Qicheng is mean and sharp-tongued, the things he reformed are good, so it's better to let him suffer less bit by bit.

Seeing that it was already dawn, the porters brought by He Qicheng outside were already preparing to leave, and Dongfang Bubai was not in a hurry to keep up, so he collected his exercises and carried his lightness skills to the center of the town.Since it is feasible to practice in this way, the next step is to make alchemy and prepare medicine, so as to assist in cultivation.

He thought to himself that his martial arts were better than Ren Wo's, if Ren Yingying hadn't been cunning and threatened Yang Lianting that day, he would never have been defeated.After recovering his martial arts, it's only a matter of time before he goes back to regain the position of leader.Thinking of this episode, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help being slightly startled.

Last time, when I thought about Brother Lian's life and death, I still felt a little distressed. How come it's only been a few days, and my heart doesn't hurt so much when I think of him?On the contrary, is he full of resentment towards Ren Yingying's revenge, cunning and cunning?

You must know that Dongfang Bubai had complicated feelings for Ren Yingying in the past, even he himself could not explain it all.He was both envious and yearning for this Holy Sister, and he felt guilty towards Ren Yingying for what he did, as if he had regarded Ren Yingying as his incarnation.He used to think how wonderful it would be if he was also such a young woman in such a youthful age.Will it be possible to wander among the mountains and rivers like Ren Yingying, and let the heroes of the world rush around for her marriage?

So Ren Yingying stabbed Yang Lianting and chopped off a finger of Yang Lianting while he was fighting with the four of them that day. When he saw this, he was shocked and angry, and attacked Ren Yingying, but in the end he only scratched Ren Yingying's cheek.Although he was hit twice in the back and his skill was slightly damaged, the more reason was that he couldn't do anything to his former incarnation.Otherwise, with Ren Yingying's martial arts, how could she avoid his lightning strike?But now somehow, Dongfang Bubai was startled to realize that his admiration for Ren Yingying had been diluted a lot after the serious injury, and even his admiration for Yang Lianting in the past was like the clouds in the past, how could he not be startled?

Could it be that he was really lost in his mind by the Sunflower Book in the past.As the skill dissipated, my past personality and temper returned?

Dongfang Bubai was puzzled, but he didn't want to delve into it.After this time, he got a blessing in disguise, and the shortcomings of the Sunflower Book were eliminated, and it was a matter of time before he regained the position of the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect.It's just that you have to be extra careful when you reconstitute the elixir that assists in practicing.He found eight herbal medicine shops in the neighboring towns, bought several herbal medicines separately, and mixed many other medicinal herbs so that it was hard to tell the real from the fake. Then he found a secluded place and refined the medicine. Make it into a jelly form, seal it with wax pellets and put it away.

After being busy for half a day, Dongfang Bubai took another pill and practiced kung fu refining, and then started his light kung fu and continued on his way.He thought he could arrive a little earlier than He Qicheng, but unexpectedly, after waiting and waiting in the inn, He Qicheng's caravan still didn't come.

Could it be that he encountered some trouble on the road?

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help feeling anxious.He Qicheng was the first person he wanted to kill after recovering his skills, how could he allow others to get involved?So as soon as he changed his mind, he immediately left the inn and ran back the way he came.

He walked all the way to search, and after half an hour, he finally saw He Qicheng's chariots and horses in a town along the way.It turned out that today He Qicheng had just walked for half a day and had already checked in at the hotel. He calculated according to He Qicheng's original footsteps and waited so far ahead that he would naturally not be able to wait for anyone.

Seeing that the caravan seemed to be in good shape, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and found an empty room next door and got in.He listened for a while, and found that there was no sound of breathing in He Qicheng's house, so he couldn't help but feel puzzled.At this time, I heard Lu Fei talking in the courtyard outside the window.

Dongfang Bubai opened the window a crack and looked down.

It was still the end of winter, and the four corners of the courtyard were covered with snow, and a large piece of bluestone ground was cleared in the middle.I saw that He Qicheng was sitting under a plum tree in the southeast corner, with a charcoal stove burning in front of him, and a small pot was set up on it. It seemed that he was enjoying the snow scene while pouring himself a drink, which was quite interesting.

The entire courtyard was taken over by He Qicheng, and his porters were either resting or going out in twos and threes, but no one came to have fun with He Qicheng in the backyard.

Lu Fei put a white porcelain jug at He Qicheng's feet, looked at He Qicheng hesitantly, but did not leave.

"Go! Tell them not to disturb me if they have nothing to do." With a wave of his hand, He Qicheng picked up the jug and filled a glass, then drank it with his head raised.He was already good-looking, but at this time he raised his glass and drank in such an unrestrained and unrestrained manner that people could hardly take their eyes off him.

Lu Fei nodded, and whispered: "Lu Fei understands. Eldest young master, you, you have to take care of yourself."

"I know the seriousness." He Qicheng drank another glass of wine, but did not look at her.

"The seller said that those snakes are very poisonous." Lu Fei bit her lower lip tightly, with a disturbed expression on her face.

He Qicheng raised his eyebrows: "Are you going? Could it be that you don't even listen to me?"

Lu Fei shook her head quickly: "Lu Fei dare not." After saying that, she turned around and left.

Dongfang Bubai heard it clearly in the room, and couldn't help frowning secretly.He had seen a basket placed at He Qicheng's feet earlier, it was very densely woven, indeed it looked a bit like a basket commonly used by snake catchers.Lu Fei is so hesitant, could it be that He Qicheng bought a few poisonous snakes and wants to poison people with snakes?

After Lu Fei left, He Qicheng raised his head and drank the third glass of wine before putting down the glass.He lifted the lid of the basket at his feet with his left hand, reached in with his right hand and quickly grabbed it, and immediately pressed the lid back on with his left hand.At this time, there was already a colorful poisonous snake on his right hand!

The snake was more than three feet long, black and red, and the color was really bright.At this time, He Qicheng grabbed him seven inches, but he was still struggling, shaking his head and tail, trying to wrap the snake tail around He Qicheng's arm.

Dongfang Bubai only said that He Qicheng wanted to eat snake meat, and secretly scolded Lu Fei for his shallow knowledge.The snake's venom is all in the cheeks and fangs. The more poisonous the snake, the more delicious the meat. How can there be any danger in eating a few poisonous snakes?It's just that it's the twelfth lunar month of winter, and it's extremely difficult to catch poisonous snakes, and the meat of snakes is cold, so it's really rare to eat them like He Qicheng.

He Qicheng held a big colorful snake in his right hand, raised his left hand to his mouth, bit it with his teeth, and pulled out a thin-edged dagger from his sleeve.Then he turned his head sideways, pointed at the palm of his left hand, and drew a straight stroke.Dongfang Bubai couldn't help being surprised.He Qicheng saw a lot of blood gushing out from the heart of his left hand, but he didn't seem to notice it at all, he didn't even frown, instead he moved the poisonous snake on his right hand towards his left hand.

The poisonous snake smelled the smell of blood, and became fierce. It opened its upper and lower jaws, and bit the wound in He Qicheng's palm fiercely.He Qicheng's expression remained unchanged. After waiting for a while, the snake finally spit out its venom, and its head drooped down.He Qicheng exhaled, threw the poisonous snake on the ground, picked up the dagger in his mouth with his left hand, and cut the snake from the tail, all the way up, peeled off the whole snake's skin, cleaned the snake's bones, and chopped the snake into sections. He scooped up a handful from the copper basin filled with water, and then casually threw it into the boiling pot.He is extremely proficient in doing this movement, I don't know how many times he has done it, even Dongfang Bubai couldn't help being secretly surprised when he saw it.

He Qicheng took poison to kill snakes, as if he was practicing some kind of evil kung fu.The martial arts in the Jianghu are all kinds of strange things. Dongfang Bubai knows that some of the Five Immortals use poison to practice martial arts, but they can't tell what kind of martial arts He Qicheng is practicing.What's more, He Qicheng's demeanor is completely different from those enchanting Miao girls. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Dongfang Bubai would never have imagined that he would use such a bewitching method to practice.It's just that this person doesn't have martial arts at all. Could it be that his martial arts will only be revealed after he has achieved great success?

Dongfang Bubai sneered in his heart, no matter what kind of evil kung fu He Qicheng practiced, he might not have the day to practice it.Once my martial arts recovers, I will definitely make this life worse than death!But he didn't want to think about it, with his current martial arts, it would be easy to rush into the courtyard and kill someone.Following him every day, and waiting until his kung fu is exhausted before making a move, is already very different from his previous style of doing things.

After absorbing the snake's venom with his palm, He Qicheng sat on the stool and closed his eyes for a while, drank three glasses of wine in a row, and then took out another poisonous snake from the basket in the same way, skinned it, deboned it, and stewed the meat.After killing the seven snakes, he picked up a small wooden box at his feet and pulled off the lid.The box is divided into dozens of compartments, and it is actually a box for dry goods and seasonings.He Qicheng picked out several kinds with the tip of his chopsticks and added them to the pot. After stirring for a while, a pot of snake soup immediately overflowed with aroma, making people salivate.

After He Qicheng finished making the snake soup, he put down his chopsticks and spread the palm of his left hand.The wound on the top has been closed, but the blood is splattered, which is quite frightening.He put his palms in front of him, first licked the blood on them with his tongue, then stood up, walked to a water tank in the corner of the yard, scooped up a ladle of water, and washed his hands again.

In winter, the water in the tank like this in the inn is sprinkled with salt in advance to prevent freezing.Because the price of salt is not low, only the first-class rooms will be available.He Qicheng directly poured salt water on the wound without even moving his brows, so stubborn that even Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but marvel at him.After cleaning his hands, He Qicheng walked back to the stove, took out a handkerchief and wiped his palms dry.Put the snake soup in a small bowl and drink it slowly.After drinking six or seven bowls, I finished the pot of fresh soup.

He Qicheng seemed a little tired, looked up at the sky, picked up the snake skin and bones with chopsticks and threw them back into the basket, extinguished the stove, took out a silver bell from his sleeve, shook it, got up and walked into the house.After a while, Lu Fei hurried back to the courtyard, packed up all the utensils, and cleaned the ground.

Seeing that Lu Fei intentionally kept her movements light while cleaning, Dongfang Bubai was slightly taken aback, and sure enough, she heard the sound of steady breathing from the next room.He Qicheng went to bed early.

Part7

After walking for another seven days, they finally approached the border of Henan Prefecture.It was early in the morning to cross the river by boat, and several boatmen heard that He Qicheng was transporting medicinal materials to rescue the disaster, so they didn't want to charge him for the boat.

The Wanli Yellow River is in the shape of "Ji", which happened to turn a big bend between Pingyang Prefecture and Henan Prefecture.The turbulent river comes rushing with the sediment rolled up from the high slope of the loess, where the river channel suddenly widens suddenly, the water flow suddenly slows down, and the sediment gradually accumulates. Over the years, it has become a spectacle of "hanging river on the ground".Pingyang Mansion on the north bank is fine, it only takes three or four years for floods, but Henan Mansion on the south bank suffers from minor disasters once a year and major disasters once every three years.

At this time, the flood had just gone, and there was a mess everywhere, and the river was even more turbid.Sitting on the big boat, you can see from a distance the three stone islands of "Human Gate", "Shenmen Gate" and "Ghost Gate" standing in the middle of the rolling Yellow River in the Sanmen Gorge.According to legend, these three stone islands are the remnants of a mountain that blocked the Yellow River in ancient times.When Dayu was ordered to control the water, he borrowed a magic ax from the goddess, and the three axes split the mountain into pieces, leaving only three islands in the water, which have been washed by the river for millions of years but remained unchanged.

It took about half an hour for the ferry to arrive at the south bank.Because the entire county town of Yongning County on the opposite bank was completely flooded by the river this time, and there was an epidemic after the disaster, no one cleaned up the river bank, and there was no clean ground in the long beach where the boat docked.He Qicheng didn't feel annoyed when he saw it, he tied his clothes around his waist, rolled up his trousers, revealing two white jade-like calves, and walked forward stepping on the mud with a group of porters.

Dongfang Bubai leaped down from the roof of the cabin, only felt that the two muddy legs in front of him were dazzlingly white, cursed evildoers in his heart, and performed the lightness kung fu of "crossing the river with a reed", and his feet did not move. The ground is attached to the back.

The group arrived at Yongning County not long after they left.There are almost no pedestrians in the county town, and puddles of stagnant water are everywhere.He Qicheng walked directly into a medicine shop with a group of porters.Dongfang Bubai saw a gourd and a huge copper coin hanging outside the pharmacy. The copper coin was engraved with the words "Jia Erhao Confucianism", which must belong to the He family's property, so he followed in with his toes.

He Qicheng entered the pharmacy, ordered the people to move the medicinal materials into the warehouse, and discussed with the shopkeeper and several doctors how to distribute the medicine for disaster relief tomorrow. After working for more than an hour, he went into the backyard to rest.Not long after, Lu Fei set up a small fire pot in a corner of the backyard, set up the bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses, and carefully placed a few bamboo tubes on the ground, then turned around and called He Qicheng to come out.

Dongfang Bubai could see clearly from the roof, knew that this was He Qicheng and wanted to use poison to practice.Counting the days, this person should practice once every seven days, which is really not hard work.It's just that he didn't know what kind of poison these bamboo tubes contained. He could vaguely hear the subtle wandering sound of Xixi Suso, but he wasn't quite sure.

Like last time, He Qicheng drank alcohol first, and then cut his palm with a dagger.He picked up a bamboo tube from the ground, aimed it at the palm of his left hand, and opened the plug.When Hong Ying moved, a fiery red centipede actually swam out of it.The centipede was half a foot long, red all over, and there was a golden thread on its back, all its feet were golden, and a pair of dark golden poisonous hooks in front of its head had pierced He Qicheng's palm firmly.

He Qicheng's face remained unchanged, allowing this alien centipede to release toxins.After a while, when the centipede gradually died, he used a dagger to pry open the centipede's carapace, picked out the tender meat and threw it into the boiling water.He cooked more than ten poisonous centipedes in a row, and then he licked off the blood in his palms, washed his hands with clean water, opened the long box and added ingredients into the small pot.He first grabbed a handful of blue rice grains from the box and threw them into the pot, then added some dried scallops, dried whitebait, etc., and finally added a few seasonings.

He Qicheng put down the long box and poured himself a drink in the ice and snow, quite contentedly.After a while, a fragrance wafted from the pot.The rice grains were clearly blue before they were cooked, but now they were as white as snow. If Dongfang Bubai didn't know that there were twelve centipedes in the pot, this pot of porridge looked really exciting.He Qicheng extinguished the fire, put the porridge in a celadon bowl, and even took out some pickles to accompany the porridge from the long box, and ate them together.After the pot of porridge was finished, tiredness appeared on his face again, he took out the silver bell and shook it, raised his hand to press his temple, turned and walked into the house.

Dongfang Bubai had already seen him practice kung fu once, and he knew that he would sleep until dawn next time.When he saw that there were no vacant rooms adjacent to He Qicheng's house, he changed his mind, and immediately opened the window gently and got in.In this room, He Qicheng was still taking off his robe and hair, Dongfang Bubai was a bold man, with a movement of his figure, he had already flashed behind a carved screen.

After a while, He Qicheng's breathing gradually became even, Dongfang Bubai walked slowly to the bed, raised the corners of his lips coldly to the person on the bed, lifted the gauze curtain, got in and sat cross-legged at the end of the bed, and started to practice kung fu.This bed is also big enough, and He Qicheng sleeps in a good position, lying flat on the inside and hardly moving.The two of them slept together and practiced without interfering with each other.Dongfang Bubai's martial arts are extraordinary, so he is not afraid of being discovered if he sets aside his mind to be vigilant to the outside world.

Dongfang Bubai has already noticed at this moment that his thoughts are a bit weird.Although he hated He Qicheng to the extreme in his heart, he still refused to kill him. This kind of thing would never have happened in the past.After thinking about it, I felt that my miraculous skills had not yet recovered, maybe there were some hidden dangers and disadvantages in He Qicheng's reform law, and this person would be used at that time, so when I thought about it, I suddenly felt that I had vaguely thought of this point and could not bear it all the time Moved, it became clear in my heart.

It's just that the closer he gets to He Qicheng, the more unbearable the anger in his heart becomes, and he always wants to give the other party some color first.At this time, he entered the tent through the window and practiced kung fu on He Qicheng's bed. Although he knew that the other party would not wake up, he felt a little relieved.Even Dongfang Bubai himself finds such complicated thoughts a little inconceivable.

He Qicheng slept very deeply.Dongfang Bubai was still looking at his sleeping appearance at first.After a while of luck, I started to concentrate on practicing, but I didn't feel that the enemy was waiting for me.He has recovered extremely quickly in the past few days, and at this time he has recovered six or seven success powers.Since taking the elixir adjusted by He Qicheng, he only feels that his heart is open and extremely comfortable, and he seems to have regained the high spirits he had when he was a teenager.After practicing Kungfu, all the limbs are smooth.

Dongfang Bubai only said that He Qicheng was indeed a unparalleled talent, but he didn't know that He Qicheng had caused such an effect by mistake.The person who created the Sunflower Collection was originally an eunuch in the former palace.After he practiced miraculous skills, in order to prevent the turbid qi from arousing the seven emotions and six desires during the practice, he made a rule that future generations must first leave the palace when they practice.He also used drugs to change people's physique, changing a man's body from the most yang to the most yin, so as to restrain his lust.But in this way, although the disaster of turbidity is avoided, it is inevitable that the practitioner will gradually fall into the state of a woman because of the imbalance of yin and yang, and even involuntarily use the world's standards for women and women to demand themselves. Gradually deviated from the wonderful meaning of the Sunflower Book that can be used both inside and outside.

Dongfang Bubai was pierced by Ren Woxing's sword at the important Qihai point on Heimu Cliff, and his skills were completely lost. If he hadn't met He Qicheng, he would definitely have died.But he was also a blessing in disguise.Not only was he lucky enough to take He Qicheng's unique elixir, it completely melted away the stale qi accumulated in his body.He Qicheng also managed to improve the Sunflower Book, so that the turbid qi can be discharged from the Yongquan point, and then used the elixir to change his constitution from yin to yin and yang, and finally he gradually recovered his original heart.

He Qicheng's actions just made the human body and the yin and yang of the outside world harmonize. It can be said that the Sunflower Book has entered a new level, but it was unexpected when he improved it.If Dongfang Bubai can break through again in the future, reach the unity of heaven and man, and even shatter the void, then he will really step into the realm of immortals.

After completing a big week of practice, Dongfang Bubai suddenly realized that the sky was already slightly bright.He had never practiced kung fu in such a situation before, so he couldn't help but feel a little scared.Before He Qicheng woke up, he turned over and jumped onto the beam.Lie on your back, rest your chin with one hand, and fall asleep.

He Qicheng slept until the third quarter of the hour before getting up.After a good night's sleep, he was in good spirits.Lu Fei came in at the right time to wait for him to tie his hair and dress him.After grooming and washing up, and after a few breakfasts, He Qicheng walked towards the front yard.

The notice of donating medicine has been posted early this morning.At this time, there was already a long queue at the door of the pharmacy.Plagues are often easy to break out after floods, and the people along the coast are always prepared.It's just that the epidemic this time is more severe than in previous years. In addition, there have been several heavy rains and the river water has not receded for half a month. After the flood season, the number of people infected with the disease is already [-] out of [-].There were two disasters in Yongning area in three years, and they were not rich at first. When the epidemic came, most of the people couldn't afford the decoction, so they had to lie at home stiff.In the past, if a village suffered from such a plague, at least half of its people would die.So when I heard that there were merchants from Huizhou who were giving me decoction for free, not to mention Yongning County, people from all over the world rushed to come here.

He Qicheng took a look at the situation outside, ordered the staff to build a shed, carried the seriously ill people inside to rest, and later sent a special doctor to diagnose and treat them, and discussed the situation of the epidemic with several doctors in turn in the pharmacy. He formulated several prescriptions and measures to prevent the plague, and finally diagnosed several patients himself.

Those few patients were also funny.At first they were clamoring to show it to the bearded old doctor, but after He Qicheng finished his diagnosis and treatment, they heard that the young man was actually the head shopkeeper of the He family, and that these medicinal materials were all funded by him, so they knelt down and kowtowed in apology .He Qicheng received several obeisances from them, asked them to go back to recuperate, and told them not to delay other people's consultation, so he sent him away.After that, the common people who came to consult him rushed to ask him to see a doctor, and he was very busy.After being busy until noon, when Lu Fei yelled three times and finally couldn't bear to drag him away, He Qicheng returned to the backyard.

Had a quick meal.Lu Fei swayed from the side and talked about him again, grabbed He Qicheng's sleeve and hesitated to speak.He Qicheng naturally understood what was on his girl's mind, so he sighed a long time, ordered to prepare a gift, got the two guys to hold it, and walked towards the center of the county.

Dongfang Bubai was confused when he heard that Lu Fei had just said, "It's all here, it's better to see you", and then said, "This is a matter set by the master. I think the other party is also a well-educated and reasonable family, and I will definitely not regret it." , vaguely felt that the previous generation of He Qicheng made an agreement with others, but now he was a little unhappy when it came time to practice it. Seeing him walking out with a gift, he couldn't help being a little curious, so he followed far behind.

Not long after He Qicheng walked, he stopped in front of a vermilion lacquer gate.There is a mighty and extraordinary stone lion on both sides of the gate, but the stone seat below is still stained with mud, and there are even a few rotten grasses on the steps in front of the gate, which does not look very majestic and quiet.When Dongfang Bubai looked up and saw the four characters "Yongning County Government" written on the plaque, he frowned.One must know that all Jianghu people disdain to deal with the government, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw that He Qicheng was still coming to the door with gifts.

He Qicheng sent a guy to come forward and pat the door open.The yamen servant who came out to open the door had an angry expression on his face, yelling loudly that the yamen was closed during the epidemic, and he didn't care about it, until he saw the silver in the clerk's hand, he put it in his arms with a smile, and took He Qicheng's greeting card inside.

Not long after, the yamen servant turned around and led He Qicheng to the flower hall of the Houfu, and then he took his leave respectfully.He Qicheng knew that this person was arrogant and respectful because he saw that the magistrate invited him into the inner house instead of the front hall, so he didn't say anything at the moment, sat on the chair and waited quietly.

Not long after, an official with a long beard came out from behind the flower hall.When he saw He Qicheng, he smiled all over his face: "Why is nephew He Xian so free to come here? I haven't seen you for many years, I really miss you!"

He Qicheng hurriedly stood up to greet him.The official held He Qicheng's hand and looked it up and down, with a look of admiration on his face, one "excellent talent" and another "young and promising" in his mouth kept praising.After exchanging pleasantries for a long time, the two sat down in the host and guest seats respectively.

The more Dongfang Bubai looked at it, the more awkward he felt, and he felt that He Qicheng's tendency to follow others was really annoying.

He Qicheng first thanked the official for his concern, and then mentioned that his father passed away three years ago, the two of them sighed again.He Qicheng paused for a moment, and then expressed his intentions to the official.

"To tell you the truth, my nephew took the liberty to come here this time because he had something to ask for."

Seeing that he was going to get to the point, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but listen intently.

The official's face suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment, and he said first: "If Nephew He Xian has any requests, it's okay to say so! Your father is the old man's life-saving benefactor, but wherever the old man can help in business, The old man is willing to do his best to help."

What he said was just and righteous, but Dongfang Bubai heard that he wanted to limit the scope of his willingness to help to business dealings, implying that He Qicheng would not intervene in anything other than business.

He Qicheng smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said in a loud voice: "My nephew wants to ask the adults for help this time, but it has nothing to do with business." He didn't wait for the official to speak, and immediately said: "My nephew is here to withdraw from the adults!"

Part8

When He Qicheng said this, not only the official was shocked, but even Dongfang Bubai couldn't help being startled.He originally thought that He Qicheng came to the yamen either to resolve the lawsuit, or to get through the joints, or at worst, to use the power of the county magistrate to bully his colleagues, but he didn't know that he wanted to quit the marriage when he opened his mouth!

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help thinking to himself, he didn't know if the lady of the county grandpa's family had buck teeth or one-eyed, but He Qicheng made He Qicheng travel so far to come and withdraw the marriage.In his heart, He Qicheng is his "Number One Enemy in Tianzi", so he is naturally extraordinary in every way, and in terms of appearance alone, he is definitely not worthy of the daughter of a small county magistrate.So when He Qicheng asked to withdraw from the marriage, he naturally felt that it was because of He Qicheng's fiancée's frightening appearance, and it was spread to He Qicheng's ears, which made him want to cancel the marriage regardless of the friendship of his father's generation.

In the other room, when the official heard that He Qicheng was going to withdraw from the marriage, he was also very entangled.Ordinarily, he was also planning to think of a way to reject this marriage, but at this time He Qicheng suddenly took the lead, and suddenly he became a little embarrassed, feeling that his face was very dull.After deliberating for a moment, he coughed dryly and said, "What do you mean by my nephew? You and my daughter are married with your fingertips. Now that the little girl is over twenty, she is still in her boudoir, just to wait for my nephew to come to propose marriage, so that it can be fulfilled." The two families have been close for generations. How can you withdraw the marriage just because you say it?"

He Qicheng seemed to have expected that the official would say this, and then rolled his eyes, bowed his hands to the official, and said sincerely: "Your Excellency is very true, it is true that my nephew has not thought carefully."

Seeing that He Qicheng was about to repent again, the official couldn't help but secretly became anxious.To say that his daughter was already twenty, but she was born with a shy face, dignified and beautiful, and the matchmaker who came to propose a marriage was simply stepping on the threshold.He wanted to choose an official family to marry his daughter, but three years ago, his daughter met a prince's son by chance.The two fell in love at first sight, and the son left a piece of jade pendant as a witness, and agreed that he would come to propose marriage when he went back and told the prince clearly.At that time, He Qicheng had been missing for more than ten years. He thought that this marriage was long gone, and the other party was a relative of the emperor.So after waiting for three years, it can be said that you stretch your neck every day just waiting for the prosperity to come.

Unexpectedly, not long ago, I suddenly heard that He Qicheng returned home safely after many years.From then on, the official wanted to regret the marriage with the He family, but couldn't find a chance.Hearing that He Qicheng was visiting today, on the one hand, he felt uneasy, fearing that people would say that he didn't know how to repay kindness, and on the other hand, he felt that this was an excellent opportunity.As long as he finds a way to make He Qicheng retreat in the face of difficulties, or postpone the marriage, when his daughter enters the palace, he, a businessman in He Qicheng, will have nothing to say.

For this reason, he didn't hesitate to say something to block He Qicheng's mouth, but he still didn't stop He Qicheng from speaking about the marriage contract.Fortunately, He Qicheng wanted to regret the marriage, not to fulfill the promise of the two previous generations.The accusation he made just now was just to put on airs, as long as He Qicheng insisted on a word, he could "reluctantly agree", but after hearing this, He Qicheng went downhill and wanted to go back on his word, how could he not be in a hurry?

He Qicheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the official's face changing from red to white.He didn't understand what the other party meant, but he deliberately didn't say anything. After a long pause, he smiled slightly and said, "Although that's the case, my nephew is determined to withdraw from this marriage. My nephew didn't think carefully just now, and just a few words made the decision." Of course, this matter cannot be counted. My nephew would like to leave a written statement, declaring that my nephew felt that he was not worthy of the daughter of Ling, so he regretted the marriage. I don’t know what the adults think?"

The official had no reason to disagree, his eyes lit up when he heard this, but he said in his mouth: "Nephew, this old man and your father are life-and-death friends, although your father is no longer here, this old man still belongs to you , I want to betroth my daughter to you. Er... Since you insist on withdrawing the marriage, the old man naturally has no choice but to agree. But, can you tell the old man why you want to withdraw the marriage?"

"Of course." He Qicheng nodded and said, "I wonder if my lord has heard that my nephew was lucky enough to meet an immortal in the mountains when he was seven years old and was taken back to be his disciple?"

The official nodded involuntarily.Back then when the young master of the He family disappeared when he was young, he actually met a god and came back after learning good medical skills. He had indeed heard about it for a long time.

He Qicheng said again: "My nephew studied art with Master, until he got permission from Master to go down the mountain. When I left, Master said that I am the most yang, and I must not get close to women before the age of 30, otherwise I will bleed to death from my seven orifices. I don't dare to delay Ling Qianjin's youth, that's why I have no choice but to withdraw from the engagement."

The official nodded while listening, and couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.Regardless of whether what He Qicheng said was true or not, since the immortal has a destiny, this marriage is a reasonable retreat. Not only no one can say anything wrong about him, but also his daughter's reputation will not be damaged in the slightest.After he figured it out, he couldn't help smiling, and sighed: "Oh...it's because you and I have no relationship. That's good! Let my nephew leave a written note, this marriage...have to be cancelled!"

Seeing that He Qicheng nodded in agreement, the official was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so he immediately ordered someone to fetch a pen and paper.He Qicheng's pen was like a dragon's snake, and he wrote a letter of resignation in a short time, took out the seal from his sleeve, stamped it, and handed it to the official.

Dongfang Bubai could see clearly from the beam of the house, and the county magistrate saw that He Qicheng's handwriting was neither horizontal nor vertical, and the corner of his mouth could not help but twitch slightly.Dongfang Bubai was also amazed when he saw He Qicheng's handwriting for the first time.Not to mention that compared with scholars and literati, even any martial artist who can read and write in the rivers and lakes can write much more decent characters than He Qicheng.What's more, he had heard that Huizhou merchants called themselves "Confucian merchants" and paid attention to the heirloom of poems and books. It was incredible to raise a child like He Qicheng.Dongfang Bubai didn't know that He Qicheng had been living in an extremely dangerous place since he was seven years old, and he didn't have the time to practice calligraphy at all.He started to learn to write after returning home, and he had to take charge of various shops during the period. At this time, it was extremely difficult to be able to write intelligible characters.

The official put away the letter of resignation, put away a worry, and sent He Qicheng to the entrance of the flower hall with a smile on his face. As if he suddenly remembered something, his face changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Nephew He Xian, I heard that you The next time you came to deliver medicine for disaster relief?"

He Qicheng nodded and said, "Exactly."

The official frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice: "But I don't know how much you charge the victims for a pair of medicine?"

He Qicheng shook his head: "Yongning County is not a rich place, and now it is suffering from a catastrophe, how can I ask the people for money again? To tell you the truth, all the medicinal materials and manpower used this time are counted on my private account .”

The official shook his head and sighed, "You shouldn't, you shouldn't..."

He Qicheng raised his eyebrows: "Why did your lord say that?"

The official shook his head again: "There is a mystery here, but it is inconvenient for the old man to explain it to Nephew Hexian. You go back and read it yourself! If you don't do it well, it will cause a catastrophe." Stopped talking, sent He Qicheng to the front yard, said goodbye, and ordered the servants to take him out, and then turned around humming a little song.

Now that the marriage was completed, He Qicheng took two assistants at the gate of the yamen, and they walked straight to the way they came from without stopping.Dongfang Bubai wanted to go straight back to the pharmacy, but a warning sign suddenly appeared in his heart.He frowned slightly, put his momentum back and forth, and found that on the side of the road in front of He Qicheng,
