Chapter 154 Sisi is injured
Xuan Ying had no choice but to extend his right pinky finger and pinky-pink her finger. He remembered that the last time he pinky-pinched was on Lixuan Island, and it was with his sister.
Sisi giggled and said, "You can't go back on your word. I heard from them that if you go back on your word after you've made the promise, the nightmare spirit will eat your spirit in the middle of the night."
Xuanying laughed and said, "They are just trying to trick children. There is no such thing as a nightmare spirit in the world."
Sisi was even happier when she saw Xuanying actually smile, and said, "You should smile more often. You look much better when you smile than when you keep a straight face."
Xuanying realized that he had lost his composure and returned to his previous cold expression.
The two chatted for a long time, and it was estimated that it was almost the end of the afternoon. Sisi walked to the basin of water, adjusted her makeup, and said, "I have to go. I can't accompany you anymore."
Xuanying spent two days with Sisi and saw that she was sometimes very gentle and sometimes very perverse, which was quite different from ordinary women. Although she didn't like it most of the time, she felt a sense of peace and tranquility that she could not experience at any other time.
When he saw Sisi was about to leave, he felt a little reluctant, but he had an indifferent expression on his face and didn't say a word.
Sisi walked to the terrace outside the door, observed carefully for a while, and made sure that no one nearby noticed her. Then she shot out a crystal thread and swung away.
The small stone house suddenly became deserted again.
Xuanying ate something casually and lay on the felt thinking about the techniques to improve his force.
He had only been taught the techniques of opening the Force and all six styles of the Arc Blade Spear by his father since he was a child. He had never been taught the techniques of improving the Force by anyone. He had only heard brief oral instructions from his parents or elders, which were nothing more than a few words like "opening the tendons", "refining the bones", and "finding the intention". He wanted to use these fragmentary information to think of a way to quickly improve his Force realm.
However, the previous techniques were the result of decades or even hundreds of years of experience by predecessors, and countless people with extraordinary talents and great perseverance contributed to them. It was really a pipe dream for him to comprehend a more advanced technique to enhance the Force through his own efforts.
Xuanying recalled that he had fought with Zhao Xiantong the morning before yesterday and still couldn't beat him. Not only was he inferior in martial arts, but also in force. The next day, after Granny Ma helped him to reach a higher level, he was able to fight two people alone. It seemed that his force had increased significantly in an instant. Thinking about it, the three iron needles Granny Ma had inserted into him and the strange energy transmitted into his body seemed to be very important, but he still couldn't figure out the real key point.
He thought that if he could find the key, he could improve his power by one realm a day, and in a few days he could return to Xuan Island to seek revenge on the Hoof Tribe. What was there to fear about the Spirit King Blood Hoof? He couldn't help but laugh at the thought. If he was really that powerful, and could improve his power by one realm a day, wouldn't he be able to catch up with the seventh realm of Xuan Nanwu's ancestor in four or five days? Would he really become a god in the future? This was absolutely impossible.
However, it is an indisputable fact that my Force increased greatly in a very short period of time. I guess the reason is probably because of the unique method that Granny Ma used to help me open the Force, not because I have any special physique or extraordinary talent.
Xuanying thought and thought until late at night, but he really couldn't figure it out, so he lay down on the felt and fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day and opened the curtain on the door next to the terrace, it was already bright.
His senses were extremely sensitive. Although he could not hear many sounds outside the house, he could clearly hear that occasionally there were groups of soldiers passing by the corners of the castle wall, as if he saw them with his own eyes.
I thought that the inspections in Jinyang City have been very strict in the past two days. This place is already the area of Jin Huapeng's Tiankun Castle, and there are often soldiers patrolling. The inspections in Jinyang City must be eight or ten times stricter.
Suddenly I thought of Sisi again. I wondered how she found this remote cottage. No one could have guessed that the murderer who had killed several people was now hiding safely in Tiankun Castle, a seemingly very dangerous place.
After eating something, I started to feel bored again, so I continued to practice the Force according to the previous method, thinking that every bit of improvement would be a gain. If there was no effect, I would just use it as a way to kill time.
When I came back from my trance and looked outside the house, it should have been past noon.
I thought Sisi probably wouldn't come today, which was a good thing, as I would feel more comfortable being alone.
He picked up a four-foot-long stick from the small pile of firewood and practiced using it as a curved-blade spear for a while. When he was tired, he practiced the Force again.
Before he knew it, it was getting dark, and Sisi didn't show up. He didn't take it seriously and went to bed early.
Three more days passed like this and Sisi didn't show up again.
The food she brought a few days ago had been eaten up by Xuanying. She thought that if Sisi still didn't come in another day, she would have to go out and find something to eat. Although this place was safe, she couldn't stay here forever. Even if she didn't starve to death, she would suffocate to death.
I have been cultivating the Force diligently for the past three or four days, but there seems to be no progress. The method of strengthening the tendons and bones is too slow. Could it be that I will be like Zhao Xiantong and Chang Lun, who are only at the third or fourth level at the age of forty or fifty? Then when will I be able to take revenge?
Thinking of this, he made up his mind to leave here after dark, and then find a way to escape from Jinyang City and never come back.
Xuanying ate the last remaining biscuit and began to practice the Force again.
I don't know how long it had been, but suddenly I felt a person approaching the stone house where I was quickly, and when he reached the wall, he flew straight up.
The door curtain was lifted, and the person was Sisi.
Xuanying was very surprised that Sisi would come again today.
After Sisi entered the room, she held her chest and gasped for breath, her brows furrowed, and she seemed to be in some discomfort.
Xuanying saw that his face was a little pale and his expression was a little different from a few days ago. He frowned and asked, "Are you injured?"
Sisi nodded and said, "He was hit by Zhong Zhaokui. This guy is indeed much more powerful than Zhao Xiantong."
"I can help you kill him before I leave the city." Xuanying said.
"Why are you willing to help me kill him?" Sisi asked.
"You helped me, so I should help you."
Sisi shook her head and said, "No, the two of us might be able to fight him to a draw, but there are too many people around him. If there is one more person, we won't be able to defeat him."
"Whether you can beat him or not, won't you know after trying?"
"Do you know why I fought with Zhong Zhaokui?"
"why?"
"After I left here that day, I had planned to come back the next day. But halfway through, I found someone secretly following me, so I didn't dare to come again. I took that person and circled around in the city. After circling a few times, I was discovered by that person, so he called many people to catch me."
