A Beginner's Guide to Magic

Lu Yang opened his eyes again, and found that his whole body was covered with gauze, and it was very difficult to move. Except for the severe pain in the abdomen, he was still beside the bed, and saw a young man who was dozing off with his head propped up.

In fact, it is not considered a youth.Lu Yang has watched so many TV dramas in which women disguise themselves as men in modern times. He has experienced many battles, and he can see the cheap glue on his beard at a glance, and his thick eyebrows that can't be more thickly drawn.

The "youth" has gentle eyes, and has a natural gentle temperament when he is sleeping, as if a Bodhisattva is alive. He is dressed in gray cloth, simple and clean, and there is a faint fragrance of medicine on his body.

Before Lu Yang could further analyze the identity of this person, she couldn't support herself, and unconsciously fell into Lu Yang's still-injured arms.

Lu Yang subconsciously wanted to open his arms to take him into his arms, but unfortunately the gauze was wrapped too tightly, as if he was tied to an animal, so he had to be hit on the head stiffly, almost bleeding out on the spot.

Fortunately, the "youth" also woke up, and found that he was buried in the arms of such a strong young man like Lu Yang. When his eyes met, his ears were a little red.

The young man got up in a hurry, his eyes flustered and he didn't know where to look, he hesitated and said: "That... Sijiu and I picked you up outside Baicheng, you... have been in a coma for three days , this is the inn."

Lu Yang looked around the furnishings in the house, and then scanned the young man. He wanted to thank him, but he couldn't lift his arms, so he said dryly, "Thank you...young hero for saving me."

The door of the house was kicked open.

A chivalrous man with the same level of disguise as the young man swaggered in, put a bowl of noodles on the table, didn't bother to look at Lu Yang's situation, and asked the young man carelessly, "Is the money-losing thing still awake?" ? It's been three days."

"I'm already awake, and I would like to thank this young hero for saving me."

The chivalrous man is dressed as an escort, his stature is slightly smaller than that of an ordinary man, and his appearance is slightly better than that of a young man. If he washes off the scars painted by hand on his face, he must be a full-fledged little beauty. "He" leaned over to the bed and glanced at Lu Yang, his mouth was still rude: "If it wasn't for your bookboy crying like a mourner, we wouldn't have rescued you."

Book boy?Lu Yang thought about the scene before he passed out, and the book boy in the other party's mouth probably was Li Qing.

Where's Li Qing?

Wait, Lu Yang thought to himself, Lao Tzu's finger... where's Feng Chan? ! !

The next moment, Li Qing abducted in with three packs of medicine in his arms, still looking stupid, he changed into a whiter and more gorgeous clothes, and the jade pendant around his waist was also changed. On his left hand, he was wearing Lu Yang Xin thought about Bai Yu's fingers.

Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't lose it, it doesn't matter who wears it.

Li Qing put down the medicine, panting almost to death, took out a white handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and said to the young man, "These two packs are the medicine on the paper, and this one was dictated by you. The shopkeeper of the pharmacy said he had never seen it Mix Tongxiang and Qiye flavor, are you sure it will work?"

The young man looked submissive, and faced his suspicion of the prescription, he seemed to be a different person, and said very firmly: "Go down and cook, there will be nothing wrong."

Li Qing didn't even have time to take a look at Lu Yang who was lying on the bed, and ran downstairs in a hurry, looking for the small kitchen to cook medicine.

The knight looked at Li Qing's back, and was amazed: "What a deep and touching master-servant relationship. Are you sure he is a book boy? Looking at your attire, I think you look like a cook."

Lu Yang looked at the little knight's intentional imitation of the man's posture, it was too much force, he saw a toothache: "Actually, I am his bodyguard."

"Bodyguard?" The knight squatted down and poked Lu Yang's arm, his face full of doubts.

"It's the bodyguard."

"Then you are really dedicated, and you are almost putting your own life in it," the young man continued. She took out a small purple bottle from her bag, poured out two pills, fed them to Lu Yang, and turned to the little knight. : "Sijiu, you go out first."

The little chivalrous man named Sijiu poked his neck and said, "Is there anything I can't listen to? I'm also your bodyguard."

The young man said helplessly: "Change his medicine, do you want to see it too?"

As soon as the words fell, Sijiu ran away without a trace. Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a sentence: "I will supervise the stew of the little boy!"

When the room was completely quiet, the young man did not forget to close the doors and windows. The two looked at each other, and the young man spoke first: "No matter who you are or what you want to do, as your doctor, I still want to persuade you to cherish yourself." bones of the body."

Lu Yang only heard the sentence "who" throughout the article, and immediately became vigilant: "What do you mean?"

"You understand it yourself." The young man sighed: "I've never seen your pulse for the first time in this life. I won't reveal your identity, and I beg you not to hurt Sijiu and me. We are just ordinary passers-by traveling the world. He has a pure heart and speaks freely, so you must not be as knowledgeable as him."

Lu Yang's heart sank to the bottom of the abyss.He wanted to laugh a little, but sure enough, the people of Wanzhang Peak would end up in the same place wherever they went, they were full of poisonous blood, and they would be feared for a lifetime.

Seeing that Lu Yang's expression was wrong, the young man said again: "The young man in white regards you as the most important thing. He has been guarding you for three nights. He is smart and quick-witted. You two have more than just a superficial relationship, right?"

There is another sentence, the young man held back and did not say, Li Qing stared at Lu Yang these three nights with affectionate and nostalgic eyes, as if he was looking at his own wife.

Lu Yang: "Li Qing, smart? You misread the person."

The young man smiled and said, "Don't just look at the surface of everything."

After the young man changed his medicine for him, and then he was fed two sips of water, and the soft pillow and quilt were all available, Lu Yang was a little moved. In the past, he basically treated his wounds in the wild, even in Wanzhang Peak. Being scolded and bandaged at the same time, this kind of treatment is not what it used to be, he said casually: "How can a doctor be an ordinary person with such a high skill."

The young man smiled again: "It's just that I saved too many people. My first patient was worse than you. He lay on the bed for three months and didn't get off the ground. When he picked it up, there was almost no good place on his body. I have to treat it like this." gone."

When the young man said this, Lu Yang roughly understood who she was.There are not many sects in Jianghu who only study medical skills. Hongxiu Valley, which has the reputation of Xinglin Sacred Hand, is listed among the twelve schools in Jianghu. This "young man" has a high probability of being one of its disciples.

Speaking of it, Wanzhang Peak and Hongxiu Valley also have some connections. Decades ago, the two sects were close friends, and the concept that medicine and poison should not be separated was also proposed by the owner of Hongxiu Valley at that time.

But later, the master of Wanzhang Peak insisted on going his own way and threw himself into the chaos of the demon sect, and the master of Hongxiu Valley persuaded his old friends. In order not to be affected by the flames of war, he had no choice but to hide from the world. This concealment lasted for decades.

Out of affection for the savior, Lu Yang said: "Next time you change your face, remember to glue the beard and eyebrows on. You can just follow my drawing."

The young man was taken aback for a moment, his ears turned red again after being exposed, "You...I...I will pay attention next time."

The two of them hadn't said a few more words before a furtive head poked into the door. It turned out to be Li Qing. He stared at the position of the bed for a long while to make sure there was nothing he couldn't see before pushing the doorknob. The medicine goes in.

The young man stopped talking, and Lu Yang said goodbye. The two looked at Li Qing in a very tacit understanding. The two parents, who knew each other's identities, had things in their hearts, and had people to worry about, smiled at the same time.Lu Yang asked Li Qing, "Is this medicine hot?"

Li Qing blew on the medicine: "Why don't you ask if it's suffering or not?"

Medicines are bitter.There are two people talking in their hearts.

Lu Yang was supported by others, and the three mouthfuls of medicine were finished. Seeing this, the Fourth and Nine Young Heroes who came back from a walk praised him again and again: "Lin Qiao's pack of medicine, how many capable people have wept bitterly, you are too good , is simply a ruthless person."

After all, he is also a person who has personally tried many poisons, and the medicines on Wanzhang Peak are not much better than the medicines from Hongxiu Valley. Lu Yang nodded and praised him tacitly.

There was a knock on the door.

Li Qing put the medicine bowl aside, took the initiative to open the door, looked at the person who came, put a fan against the door frame, and asked: "What is the meaning of the female hero?"

The visitor seemed to have malicious intentions. A tall female knight held Zhang Gongwen in her hand, followed by two tall and burly swordsmen. The three of them were equipped with knives and armor. Judging by their momentum, they should all have killed The masters of human beings, the three of them looked fiercely, and looked at Li Qing with a little wariness.

"In late autumn, the master of Xiajiudaomen came to this inn to investigate the suspects due to a sudden murder case in the city recently. All outsiders will be questioned. Please help me, my lord."

The female knight looks about 30 years old, well-maintained, and she also has the demeanor of a master in her words and deeds. The two behind her are probably the guardians.

Although Lu Yang and the others couldn't see the door, they could hear it. He thought for a while, and asked the young doctor named Lin Qiao in a low voice: "Jiu Dao Men, is it the one who joined the Demon Cult more than ten years ago and died later?" Join the sect of the sect master's family?"

Lin Qiao glanced at him and said, "Yes, this place is called Baile City, and it is indeed the address of Jiudaomen."

Among the twelve sects, the sect with the most proficient use of knives is also the most declining sect today, even worse than the Emerald Villa that lost its heirloom weapon, that is, the Nine Knife Gate.Because the head of the sect joined the Demon Cult more than ten years ago, the whole family was brutally retaliated by others. Since then, the Jiudaomen has been in a slump, and its reputation has never been better. It is hard to have the grand occasion.

However, the centipede is dead but not stiff. After all, Nine Knife Sect is one of the twelve sects. No matter how it declines, it is still a guardian sect. It is a treasure of a city. Even if its reputation falls to the extreme, it will still protect the safety of the people. .

"Nine Knife Gate?" Li Qing's voice came from afar: "What is that, why have I never heard of it before?"

Wanqiu looks fierce, but he is also patient: "Young master, you are not from the Jianghu, right? Jiudaomen is the largest gang in the local area. Protecting the safety of the common people is the meaning of our existence."

It's not that if you are a sect, you have to be a good person to protect the people.Lu Yang thought to himself, for example, Wanzhang Peak, other than going down the mountain to kill people and transporting food up the mountain, he, the senior brother Mao, has never done anything. Presumably his moody master has never done anything to accumulate virtue.

Lin Qiao couldn't help laughing. They have been living in Hongxiu Valley for decades, and the valley is full of doctors. Even if they want to protect the people, they only go out occasionally to ask a doctor and deliver babies.

Lu Yang complained in a low voice: "The Nine Knife Gate killed at least two to three thousand people more than ten years ago. My master said that it was a real river of blood."

Lin Qiao whispered back to him: "Shouldn't he be allowed to change his mind and start a new life?"

This is true, Lu Yang thought, isn't Wanzhang Peak going to change its mind soon?

Sijiu looked at this, and then at that, feeling a little unconvinced, and said in a low voice, "You two have only known each other for the first day, can you stop chatting like this, I'm still alive!"

Lin Qiao smiled, put Si Jiuquan into his arms and rubbed his face, Lu Yang simply turned his head to the side, pretending to be seriously ill, and coughed twice.

"I'm not from the rivers and lakes." Li Qing smiled over there: "I'm just a businessman. But even I can smell it out. The three knives have just been stained with blood, right?"
