A Beginner's Guide to Magic

"Open your mouth and drink the medicine."

Shen Yunkai shook Lu Yang worriedly.

Lu Yang was forcibly woken up by him. In astonishment, he coughed so much that he almost vomited blood. After a while, he looked at the second junior brother very helplessly: "I am your brother anyway, can you be gentle? Like a filial person?"

Seeing that he was awake, Shen Yunkai immediately put on an impatient expression, and said with a smirk: "Oh, I'm not your brother, and I'm not filial. Those who want to be filial, go out and turn left to the room of the Sixteenth Junior Brother. I miss you."

Lu Yang avoided the soup spoon he extended and glanced at the door, just in time to see a few juniors and juniors poking their heads. When they saw the senior brother's face, they all danced quietly, probably saying hello.

One of the dancers who danced the happiest was Junior Brother Sixteen.When he saw Lu Yang, his eyes shone like gold, as if he saw some treasure, he was bouncing around, full of vigor.

Lu Yang thought to himself, it's over, I haven't come back for a few days, my Wanzhang Peak is going to become a monkey mountain.

Sensing his dodging gaze, Shen Yunkai took a deep breath, turned his head suddenly, and did not know what kind of ferocious expression he showed. Seeing this, the hesitant children at the door scattered like wild beasts, and ran away without a trace.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "Look, none of them are willing to serve you, but I am the only one who will work hard without any complaints, so please be content."

Lu Yang bared his teeth in pain, and dared not speak.

Shen Yunkai filled him with medicine, and took out a small white bottle from his arms. When he opened it, a strong and pungent herbal smell came out. He pressed Lu Yang who was about to get out of bed and escape, and pushed him away The thin clothes on his chest, lightly poured a little medicine in the palm of his hand, and lowered his eyes to apply the medicine to his wound.

Lu Yang only felt a warmth attached to the wound, probably the wound medicine newly developed by the second junior brother. The way the other party applied the medicine was extremely gentle, and there was hardly any discomfort.

There was only a slight breathing sound in the room, and they were so close that Lu Yang could almost hear the violent heartbeat of the other party.

He felt that the atmosphere was a bit subtle, so he had nothing to say: "Why can't you do this kind of thing while I'm unconscious, hiss..."

Shen Yunkai suddenly increased his strength, and the pain made him regain his energy immediately.

The second junior brother looked as usual, and even gave him a blank look: "I'm afraid of pain and don't pay attention. I always come back with injuries, and I don't know how to cherish myself at all. What do you do at the bottom of the mountain?"

Lu Yang blinked: "Next time."

"Don't play around." Shen Yunkai stared at him: "What kind of business are you doing to earn so much money?"

Lu Yang stared at the bed curtain, seeming to find the pattern on it very novel.

I remember that this was the beautiful picture of rivers and mountains embroidered for him by several junior sisters on his birthday last year, it seems that Shen Yunkai also mixed it in.I asked myself later, he said he embroidered a tree, and six holes were pierced in his hand, which tree was it?

Seeing his appearance, Shen Yunkai suddenly put down the medicine bottle, pointed at him with wide eyes, and said, "Lord Lu Dafeng, you have never dared to say that you won't... Are you really going to sell yourself?"

Lu Yang punched him.

Shen Yunkai put down the medicine bottle with a pale face, pinched his chin with his hands, his eyes were empty and his voice trembled: "Master said before that some powerful people have some special habits when it comes to the bed, so you hurt... "

Lu Yang punched him again, trying to break up the image in his mind: "Don't think about it."

After dinner, Shen Yunkai found another reason to sneak into Lu Yang's room.

At that time, the Sixteenth Junior Brother and the Seventeenth Junior Junior Sister were lying beside Lu Yang's bed. The three of them each held a handful of bamboo slices, gesticulating something enthusiastically.

Lu Yang: "To seven."

Junior Seventeen: "Yes, ten."

Junior Brother Sixteen: "Yes."

Junior Sister Shiqi became angry: "How many times have you said Shiliu? We are farmers!"

The sixteenth junior glanced at Lu Yang shyly, and then apologized to his junior sister with red ears: "I was wrong, I was wrong."

But looking at his appearance, he looks like a person who will never change his nature.

Shen Yunkai coughed twice behind his back, and the two juniors turned their heads to see him, as if seeing the King of Hades, and rushed out of Lu Yang's room.

Lu Yang: ...

He had no choice but to pack up a pile of bamboo pieces and make room for Manager Shen to sit: "What's wrong?"

Shen Yunkai sat unceremoniously, did not speak for a long time, and finally said with some embarrassment: "The money on the mountain is not enough."

Lu Yang was a little surprised: "Why is it consumed so quickly?"

"The younger brothers and younger sisters are all grown up, I just dismissed some outrageous demands, but the sword and armor... It's a little difficult to deal with. Although our sect is for refining poison, after all, you and I can also I used a little sword, I practiced it occasionally, they saw... In the end it was my fault."

Shen Yunkai clenched his fists in self-blame, almost bleeding.

Lu Yang couldn't bear to see him like this, so he pulled his hand away weakly, and squeezed the soft flesh of his palm: "If they want it, they will give it to them. The children on the mountain are all grown up by us, and they are the most obedient and sensible. .”

The second junior brother let out a muffled "hmm".

Lu Yang suddenly remembered something, and asked him with a smile, "Do you still remember when we were young, we asked Master what we wanted?"

Shen Yunkai also smiled slightly: "How can I forget. I want the most famous sword in the world, and you want a time-traveling machine. Oh, yes, I never asked you, what is time-traveling?"

"It's just some things that don't conform to your three views, and you don't understand even if you tell them."

Shen Yunkai simply lay down next to him, and the two shared the same soft pillow.

"Brother, I can't understand what you are talking about. What is your world like?"

"Actually, that world was not good at all. I got a very serious illness there and almost died. I somehow transmigrated to this place. Although I suffered a little when I was a child, I survived."

A sigh came lightly.

Shen Yun opened the corners of his mouth: "Master, that old thing is really deadly. Now he has been down the mountain for two years. It is a heavy burden to hand over the Wanzhang Peak to us, but the days are considered passable."

Lu Yang sighed heavily, it was okay, as the head of the family, he would not even be willing to eat a steamed stuffed bun with bean paste at the foot of the mountain.

This situation is quite life-like.The virtuous and irritable second junior brother took care of the children on the mountain, and he licked blood on the tip of the knife and did hard work at the foot of the mountain. Thinking about it carefully, it was still reasonable.

But if Shen Yunkai knew that he was doing such a dangerous thing down the mountain, he might tie him up and put him in a dungeon.

Tonight he has been sighing, sighing and sighing, his heart is full of bad things.

Shen Yunkai couldn't stand it anymore: "I'm considered the second in charge now, so can't I take on those big things with you? No matter what work you do at the foot of the mountain, if you bring me along, I will also contribute."

Lu Yang glanced at him, then lowered his head to look at his unscarred arm, and said decisively: "You are already tired enough to cook and teach on the mountain every day, so why bother to wade into this muddy water with me? , it’s not a glamorous job, I don’t want your hands to get dirty too.”

"Lu Yang!"

"Don't think about it, the money is almost there, right? I'll go down the mountain again tomorrow."

Being so aroused by him, Shen Yunkai became a little impulsive, and said unrestrainedly: "The injury is not healed yet, you dare to walk and try! I sleep on your bed today, I don't believe you can run away!"

Someone outside the house suddenly let out an ambiguous scream, and someone whispered to others: "The two brothers really have an affair!"

Shen Yunkai was furious, his face flushed with anger, he grabbed the medicine bowl on the table and threw it out.

Lu Yang raised his eyebrows, and put on a leisurely pose on the bed: "Yunkai, so you still have such thoughts, why didn't you tell brother before?"

As he spoke, he tugged down the collar very actively.

Know yourself, know your enemy, and win every battle, this trick is especially effective against Shen Yunkai.

Shen Yunkai quickly blocked his eyes, even though he did not know how many times he had soaked in the "Mandarin Duck" poison bath with his senior brother before, he still put on an attitude of seeing no evil, and slowly moved out of the room: "You are dead. Let’s figure out a solution together, don’t take any more risks.”

"I know, I know."

In the early morning of the second day, Shen Yun kicked open the door of his respected senior brother's room, angrily grabbed a piece of paper on the pillow, the handwriting was chaotic, and he could vaguely analyze that the person who wrote it was probably in a hurry.

My brother slipped away.Black and white.

Shen Yun was so angry that he crumpled the paper into a ball and tore it up on the bed. Looking at his expression, it seemed that he wanted to eat the paper.

"You know what you are! Lu, you have the guts not to come back!"

The head of the Wanzhang Peak House of Internal Affairs roared, startling the birds in the forest.

In Baicheng, which is the closest to Wanzhang Peak, at the entrance of the black market that no one pays attention to, there are two young men who are wearing veils in broad daylight, for fear that people will see their true colors, leaning against the wall and talking.

Zhao Sui looked in a particularly good mood today, this man always had a fake smile on his face, Zheng Daqian was used to it, so he had no objection.

"In Zhao's house in the north of the city, there is a sick and weak man. He looks handsome and has a mole under his left eye. I want a pair of his eyes, can I do it?" Zhao Sui laughed, such a well-dressed young man can say Say such insidious words.

Zheng Daqian had nothing to say, nodded and said, "Within three days."

"Hey." Zhao Sui held up the opponent's chin with the handle of his fan, and there were some inexplicable emotions in his seemingly frivolous eyes: "Brother Zheng, you were reluctant in every possible way a few days ago, why did you think about it today?" ? It’s not your mother-in-law who asked you for a golden hairpin and jade fan.”

Out of interest considerations, Zheng Daqian couldn't turn his back on him face to face, so he gently turned his fan and said, "Sorry, I can't tell you."

Unexpectedly, Zhao Sui likes a hot face and a cold butt the most, so he chased him and said: "If you want natural materials and earthly treasures, I also have them in my warehouse. If you buy them in a store, you will always be tricked. I will never deceive my friends." Yes. Brother Zheng, you can think about it."

Zheng Dagan only wavered a little, jumped onto the roof and left without looking back.

Today is the last day of Zheng Daqian's promised period.

He has been lying quietly on the treetop for three hours, his eyes have been fixed on the patrolling soldiers in the courtyard of the Zhao Mansion, when will they go out on patrol, how many people are there, and what is the route, all of which are deeply etched in his mind.

Including the position of the secret sentry, how many people have high martial arts skills, he wrote them down one by one, not daring to make a mistake.

He still didn't understand the background of the owner of this mansion, he saw him go out to bask in the sun for a stick of incense in three days, and the rest stayed in the house, not afraid of getting sick.

Besides, what's even more weird is that Little White City has hidden so many masters in private, all of them are difficult to deal with.He was almost found yesterday.

Such a dangerous task was of a special nature, and he hadn't planned to complete it in such a hurry, but if the juniors and sisters on the mountain couldn't wait for what they wanted, they might be a little disappointed.

The second junior brother is not easy to coax, if he doesn't take the money back, how can he have the face to eat the food cooked by Shen Yunkai?

He held his breath, not even daring to sigh.

Finally, the moon is on the branch.

Zheng Daqian finally slipped into the inner courtyard, stuck to the wall, hid himself in the shadows, and watched a group of patrolling soldiers walk past his face.

As soon as he moved his wrist lightly, a master hidden in the dark spotted him: "There is an assassin!"

Several guns stabbed over quickly.

Zheng Daqian could finally sigh. While chanting "Amitabha", he took out the poison bottle from his arms and threw a few poison packets out. The effect of the medicine was fast and harsh. He covered his eyes and fell to the ground.

Lu Yang, as the applicator of the medicine, is also the senior brother of the Wanzhang Peak Poison Pool. He has been the champion of poison refinement for many years.

Several guns slid past his body, he dodged carefully, but still received a heavy blow, the barbed arrow tip pierced the soft armor, pierced straight into the flesh, piercing to the bone, causing him to stumble in pain Paused, still not daring to slip aside.

While running while sprinkling the powder, no one could catch up to him.

This is all thanks to the teaching of the master.The master told him and Shen Yunkai since they were young that if they wanted to survive, they could only run away, and they would personally chase after the two of them every day with red-hot charcoal in their hands.

His back, which was tightly wrapped in night clothes, was full of scars, all of which were bestowed by the cold-blooded and ruthless master.

Under such ravages, no matter who it is, Qinggong will be superior to others.

He rushed all the way into the target's bedroom, took off the poisoned clothes, and then simply dealt with the poisoned arrow. He was sweating from the pain, and after a while, he took his sword and approached the bedside.

The person on the bed seemed to be asleep, breathing evenly.

The next moment, the person said lightly as if talking in a dream: "Who sent you?"

Zheng Daqian is not surprised by this.

Everyone who was killed before asked this question, but he basically never answered it.

Sometimes he doesn't know who his employer is, and even if he knows, he won't mention it to the dying person.

The person on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, and with his paper-pale face, he didn't need to feel his pulse, he knew that he was terminally ill, and his life was not long. It is estimated that without his hands, this person would not survive the fall .

He stared closely at Zheng Dagan, his eyes glued to his sword, and it took him a long time to move away.

He intermittently said: "Aren't you afraid of retribution for killing me?"

Zheng Dagan licked his dry lips, turned around and took a cup from the table, poured some tea and drank it down.

I thought, if I had known that your yard was full of paper tigers, I should have exchanged your eyes for money yesterday.

As for retribution, I have no face and skin, and I don't care about retribution.

The pale person on the bed was stunned, he raised his arm tremblingly, pointed at Zheng Dagan, as if he had seen a ghost: "You...you drank that tea, why didn't you die?"
