Work hard for the shadow guard

Ji Yuheng arranged Yingjiu to sit down in the room, and went to pick some ripe fruits and put them in front of Xu Bo's spiritual tablet.

"Uncle Xu, I picked fresh fruit for you, do you remember? I cried and cried when I was a child, and you gave me this, and I stopped crying when I tasted the sweet and sour taste. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed , Mother hasn't come back for two years, and you are not around. Today I met a shadow guard named Ying Jiu. Although he was sent by my father, I want to keep him. He should be with me for a long time. Now you don't have to worry about me being alone."

When Ji Yuheng came back, there were already a few things on the table, a whip, a booklet, and a pitch-black porcelain bottle.

"What is this?" Ji Yuheng put the fruit plate in his hand aside.

"Master, do you agree to keep me? You can ask your subordinates to do anything, and your subordinates will definitely serve the master well."

With Yingjiu's cultivation, he has actually heard what his master said in front of Xu Boling, but he needs his master's personal consent to keep him.

"Huh? The answer is not what you asked?" Mingming had already called "Master" one after another, but he insisted on admitting it himself.

Ji Yuheng picked up the whip on the table and shook it in his hand. The top-quality cowhide soft whip looks unremarkable, and it won't make people's skin bruised immediately when it hits a person, but it can beat the flesh and blood under the skin. Fragmentation is a whip that can beat people to death without seeing blood.

Seeing that Yingjiu was about to apologize again, Ji Yuheng quickly said, "Okay, I agree with you staying as my shadow guard."

Ji Yuheng didn't expect Yingjiu to kneel down without being particularly happy after hearing his words.

"Please master give me twenty whips."

"Use this whip?" Ji Yuheng looked at the short whip in his hand, "What kind of rule is this, you have done nothing wrong, why should I beat you?"

Besides, even if he really did something wrong, it is impossible for Ji Yuheng to beat Yingjiu with a whip.

Yingjiu looked up at Ji Yuheng, then bowed her head and said, "This is the rule of Qiwu Villa. When a shadow guard recognizes his master, he needs to be rewarded with twenty whips by the master, which represents the master's recognition of his subordinates."

Ji Yuheng didn't want to abide by the rules of Qiwu Villa, what kind of approval was just to show his prestige, "What if I refuse?"

Yingjiu didn't speak, and the master refused to give him the whip, which meant that the master still didn't want to accept him.

Ji Yuheng saw Yingjiu kneeling there without saying a word, as if he would not get up unless you hit me. What kind of means does Qiwu Villa have to train people to be so tame? In fact, Yingjiu didn't tell him these rules. , he wouldn't know, and he could escape a whipping.

"Stretch out your two hands, fingers straight, palms up." Ji Yuheng had his own way to deal with it.

Yingjiu didn't know what Ji Yuheng was going to do, but she obediently obeyed the order and stretched her hands above her head like a child doing something wrong.

Ji Yuheng looked at the hands in front of him, the fingers were well-proportioned, slender and strong, and there were beautifully shaped lines in the white palms. He sighed softly, but he couldn't even part with the thugs.

Ji Yuheng rolled up the whip, and lightly greeted Yingjiu's palm a few times, the strength was no different from hitting with dogtail grass.

Yingjiu looked at Ji Yuheng in shock. The master had come up with such a way, and he suddenly felt extremely sour in the sockets of his eyes.

When in Qiwu Mountain Villa, Yingjiu heard that even His Highness, who has always been known for his gentleness, rewarded Ying Qi with twenty heavy lashes when he accepted Yingqi, but His Highness did it himself and did not fake it. This is already a great recognition of Yingqi.

If the master does this, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to establish his prestige in front of the shadow guards?

The twenty strokes ended quickly, and Ji Yuheng threw the whip on the table without looking at it again.

"You can get up now, it's quite a lot under twenty, I haven't violated the rules."

"Thank you master for giving the whip." Yingjiu stood up silently. There was no soreness on the palm of his hand, but it was a little itchy. He put his hands back to his side and lightly clenched his fists. Owner!

Ji Yuheng saw that Yingjiu's eyes were reddened, his strength just now was definitely not heavy, why did he make people cry.

Realizing that her master was looking at him, Ying Jiu blinked quickly, suppressing the soreness in her eyes.

Ji Yuheng looked at his new shadow guard, his dark eyes like a deer were covered with a thin layer of water mist, which made people feel affectionate, but unfortunately, after blinking a few times, the layer of water mist disappeared.

Ji Yuheng picked up the beautifully framed booklet on the table again. There were some light blue cloud patterns printed on the cover. After opening it, a line of elegant characters appeared in front of his eyes.

"What does this mean? Want me to go to apprentice?"

Although Ji Yuheng grew up in the mountains, the world-renowned Immortal Sword Sect still knows that it is the head of the four great sects in the cultivation world, and it is the place that all cultivators dream of.

"Yes, His Majesty specially prepared this for Master." Yingjiu replied, perhaps because Master grew up in the human world, His Majesty specially prepared a teacher apprentice post from Immortal Sword Sect for Master.

"But I'm not interested in cultivating to become a fairy. I've lived at the foot of Yunxing Mountain for 18 years, and I still want to find someone to go sightseeing with when I grow up." He originally wanted to kidnap the newly acquired shadow guard and go out.

Cultivators are existences like folklore. They have superb mana and can ride clouds and fog. The only person Ji Yuheng has ever seen is his own mother, because she always appears at home out of nowhere, or flies down from the sky, but she doesn't go away. After passing the main gate, the cultivation should be very good.

But his mother never let him practice. Even if Ji Yuheng didn't know the number of ways to practice, he knew that it started from elementary school. It's better than never starting.

"Master, you can also visit the mountains and rivers on the way to apprenticeship, and this subordinate will always be with you," Ying Jiu paused, and continued, "If the master doesn't go, this subordinate..."

Before Yingjiu finished speaking, Ji Yuheng hurriedly replied: "Will he be punished? Or should he apologise with death?"

Why did the master rush to answer? Yingjiu secretly raised her head to look at Ji Yuheng, acquiescing to what he said.

"It seems that I have to go, but I'm already done, and I don't know anything about cultivation. I'm afraid I won't be able to step through the gate of Immortal Sword Sect."

Ji Yuheng doesn't mind going to Xianjianzong for Yingjiu, but whether he can succeed in his apprenticeship is still a problem.

"Master, you are very talented, and you will definitely be able to join the sect of the Immortal Sword Sect. Moreover, only if you have enough strength can you survive among the highnesses."

Ji Yuheng frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

"Master, you are the last adult Highness, which means that all His Highnesses can start to compete for the position of the heir, but there is only one heir. Even if the Master is unwilling to participate, I am afraid that other Highnesses will not let you go."

After Ji Yuheng silently digested Yingjiu's words, he came to the conclusion that his father was really useless and caused him a lot of trouble.

What a powerful person his father is, and he needs his heirs to kill each other to fight for his seat, which is comparable to the fight for the throne.Could it be a hidden big family or great sect?

Ji Yuheng rubbed his brows, smiled wryly at Yingjiu, "You, you brought me all 'good news'!"

Ying Jiu has already discovered that her master is indifferent to fame and fortune, not as scheming as His Royal Highness, nor as fierce and violent as His Second Highness.

Ying Jiu lowered her head guiltily, "Please punish me, master."

What is there to punish? Ji Yuheng knew that it was not Yingjiu's fault. If Yingjiu hadn't told him in time, if he was killed by a so-called competitor one day, he wouldn't even know how he died.

Ji Yuheng sighed, "I'll punish you for telling me what's in this little black bottle."

Ji Yuheng took the last thing on the table, a small pitch-black porcelain bottle. It was smooth and cool in the hand, and the texture was very good. After opening, there were many small white pills densely packed inside.

"This is the antidote to the poison. The shadow guards in Qiwu Villa have taken the juice of the flowers since childhood, which is very beneficial to their cultivation. At the same time, they will also suffer from the poison. It occurs once a month. The master can decide on the performance of his subordinates. Whether or not to give the antidote, if the antidote is not obtained for three consecutive months, the subordinate will be poisoned and die."

"Yes?"

Ji Yuheng felt a deep pity in his heart, what kind of inhuman treatment did the person in front of him receive in Qiwu Villa, so he didn't care about his body, as if he believed that he might not get the antidote at any time and die of poison.

"I don't need to rely on this to control my shadow guard, you can take this antidote yourself." Ji Yuheng put the porcelain bottle by Ying Jiu's hand.

"This is against the rules, please accept the antidote master." Ying Jiu quickly pushed back the antidote, stood up and wanted to beg.

Seeing that Yingjiu was about to kneel again, Ji Yuheng slammed the table.

"Don't kneel! I just accept this antidote, but if I forget to give it to you on time, you must remind me that at any time, I will not use it as a means of punishing or blackmailing you."

Ji Yuheng put away the antidote, which was related to the life of his shadow guard, so he couldn't lose it.

"Your subordinate obeys." Ying Jiu responded, a warm current ran through his chest, and at the same time, there was some unbearable sourness. He never thought that there would be someone who treated him as well as his master in the world.

"I think this antidote is only a few dozen pills. If you finish it, what will happen to your poison?" Just now Ji Yuheng opened the bottle cap and took a look inside. Although there are a lot of Xiaobai pills, if you take one a month, I'm afraid you won't be able to take it. several years.

"The antidote in the bottle is enough for my subordinates to take for four years, and if I save a little, I can take it for 12 years." As for 12 years later, Yingjiu felt that she would not live to that time.

Of course Ji Yuheng knew what Yingjiu meant by saving a little. He would die if he didn't take the antidote for three months. Giving the antidote once in three months was the most economical way, but how could he do that.

"Then there is no way to completely detoxify you? Do you want to take this antidote for the rest of your life?" Ji Yuheng asked. He actually has a lot of research on the world's exotic flowers and plants, but he has no idea about this flower. No impression.

Ji Yuheng had never heard of Qiwu Villa or Jihua, and he almost wondered if Yingjiu and him were from the same world.

"Only Your Majesty can completely detoxify the poison of the flowers." Ying Jiu said, among so many shadow guards in Qiwu Villa, only Cang Yin obtained the antidote to the poison of the flowers.

Therefore, in order to unravel Yingjiu's poison, the only way is to become a so-called venerable master or directly ask his father for the antidote. Ji Yuheng feels that neither of these two methods is easy to handle.

Ji Yuheng rubbed his brows together, "Okay, I see."

Immortal Sword Sect had to go, and he had to learn how to practice from scratch. Whether it was for himself or for Yingjiu, he had to work hard to practice.

Parents are both people with high cultivation bases, so my cultivation talent shouldn't be too bad, right?

"In addition, you are not allowed to kneel casually in the future. Men have gold under their knees, you know?" Ji Yuheng added.

"Your subordinates know." Ying Jiu responded, but what he thought in his heart was, master, you are my gold.
