Chapter 536: Regain cultivation

The woman could not understand Chinese and had no idea what she was saying. She heard the villagers outside the house screaming and running, becoming more and more anxious. She raised her hand and pointed eastward while speaking quickly, which basically meant that the bad guys were here again and it would be too late if they didn't leave.

He waved his hands and shook his head. His original intention was to tell the woman not to panic, but the woman misunderstood his meaning and just wanted her to escape alone. Regardless of her objections, she eagerly stretched out her hand to carry him on her back.

This young woman had carried it on her back many times before, and she had already become as skinny as a stick after being in bed for many days. She thought she could easily carry it on her back, but she never thought that after several times of exertion, it would not move as if it were taking root.

Seeing this, the woman turned around and looked at him suspiciously.

He didn't speak, but leaned down and walked towards the door.

The woman looked at him in surprise, seeing that he was swaying, knowing that he was weak and secretly worried. Then he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Seeing this, the woman felt worried and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

He waved his hand at him, then frowned and looked around. It was noon, and the light outside was very dazzling. After staying in a dark environment for a long time, suddenly coming to a bright outdoor place made his eyes feel uncomfortable.

At this time, the villagers were running away in panic to the west, and several thieves on horseback not far away to the east were chasing after them. Although the spiritual energy had begun to circulate on its own, the eyesight had not fully recovered, and the vision was still a little blurry. Until those few When the thieves came closer on horseback, they discovered that they were actually wearing military uniforms. It turned out that these people were not bandits, but Silla soldiers.

Seeing that he was standing at the door, he did not run away in panic. The soldiers riding in front suddenly showed a fierce look on their faces, drew their swords in their hands, and were ready to kill.

Before the woman could rush out and pull him, the war horse had already rushed over. He calmly struck out and killed the galloping horse with just one punch.

The horse suddenly stopped and fell to the ground. The soldier on the horse immediately screamed and flew out. Before it fell to the ground, he raised his hand to catch it, slammed it to the ground, and kicked it again.

Seeing that a soldier was killed in an understatement, the woman stared in horror, and then cried with joy.

At this time, other soldiers who broke into the village were chasing the villagers around. After trampling the soldier to death, they walked straight towards several nearby soldiers.

Seeing that the dead soldier's saber was not picked up, the woman hurriedly picked up the long knife, quickly caught up with him, and thrust the long knife into his hand.

He looked back at the woman. Because the light was very bright, he could vaguely see the woman's appearance. She must be about twenty-seven or eighty years old. Her facial features are quite handsome. Judging from her figure, she must have given birth. She is a young woman. people.

When turning around, near

One of the soldiers thought he had an opportunity, hurriedly shook his reins and spurred his horse, and rushed over.

As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although it is as skinny as a stick and its poison has not been eliminated, it is more than enough to deal with these evil soldiers and bandits. With a backhand knife, it will kill them directly.

There was also a Silla soldier nearby. He saw two of his accomplices killed in the blink of an eye. He was horrified and hurriedly shouted loudly, calling for the soldiers who came with him to come for reinforcements.

Although the soldier yelled, he did not dare to step forward, and he was not in a hurry to take action. He had just recovered his cultivation and needed time to recover and react, as well as time to use his energy to force out the remaining poison that had invaded his organs.

Not long after, the soldiers scattered throughout the village heard the sound and rushed over. They roughly counted them and found that there were sixteen people in total. Together with the two people who had been killed by themselves, there were eighteen people in total. This was exactly the formation of a team.

The woman never escaped. Seeing the soldiers surrounding them, she couldn't help but feel nervous and frightened. However, before her nervousness could spread throughout her body, she took action. After a moment of dizziness, all the cavalrymen fell to the ground and died, without exception, their heads missing.

.

After being stunned for a long time, the woman finally came back to her senses, ran forward and said something quickly.

Throwing away the long knife, he smiled at the woman, returned to the door, and sat down on the stone that served as a step in front of the door.

The woman was so excited that she forgot that she couldn't understand her own language. When she realized what she was saying, she walked up to him and bowed repeatedly.

She waved her hand at him and made a gesture of drinking water. The woman understood and hurried into the house, and soon brought a ladle of cold water.

He took the water ladle and rinsed his mouth first, then drank the remaining cold water in one gulp.

After drinking a gourd, he handed the gourd back, indicating that he wanted more, and the woman took it again and drank again.

After drinking water, he asked the woman for the acupuncture bag left by the old doctor, and performed acupuncture and bloodletting. This time, his spiritual energy had begun to move on its own. With the stimulation of the spiritual energy, the poisonous blood no longer dripped slowly from the needle holes, but

Quick squirt.

I knew I was very thin, but I didn't expect that I would be so thin. I was really as skinny as a stick, and looked like a withered body. If it weren't for the physique of Qi practitioners who are different from ordinary people, and to be so thin, my vitality would have been cut off long ago.

At this time, he was very hungry. He saw bundles hanging on the saddles of some of the horses, so he went forward to rummage around. He found a few pieces of bread and immediately chewed them. Seeing that the woman was nearby, he handed two pieces of bread to her.

.

The woman waved her hand but did not take it,

I looked at him and then at the soldier's corpse on the ground. His eyes were very complicated, with endless resentment and strong worry.

Guessing what she was thinking, since she couldn't communicate with words, she could only point to the corpses of the soldiers, and patted her chest, indicating that she was there and she had nothing to fear.

The woman understood what he meant, her face softened slightly, and then she looked around to make sure there was no villager nearby, then she stepped forward and turned over the soldiers' corpses, searching them one by one for silver coins.

While eating the bread, he watched the woman looking for money from the corpse. The woman's clothes were shabby and her face was disheveled. It was obvious that she lived in embarrassment in her daily life. He couldn't imagine where such a poor woman could get so much money.

Ginseng killed him.

The villagers were so afraid of these soldiers that they never came back after escaping. The woman put the silver and copper coins she found into a money bag, then walked over and stuffed the money bag into her hands.

Of course he didn't want it, but the woman insisted on giving it to him. When he gave it, he suddenly remembered something. He must have been in bed for a long time because he was so thin. He wanted to determine how long he had been in bed.

Thinking of this, he pointed to the sun in the sky, then made a gesture of rising and setting sun, then took out a copper coin from his money bag and put it into the water ladle beside him.

The woman was very smart and immediately guessed what he wanted to ask, so she took the money bag, took out the copper coins and put them into the water ladle. ??

The woman put and counted until the woman put thirty copper coins into the water ladle, then she stretched out her hand to stop her. Then she took the thirty copper coins out of the water ladle and put them back into the purse, and put a piece of broken silver into the water instead.

ladle.

The woman understood, took out a few broken pieces of silver from her purse and put them into the water ladle one by one.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces, a total of three pieces, and then the copper coins were put in, and there were five more.

Seeing this situation, he frowned instantly. He knew that he had been bedridden for a long time, but he didn't expect that he had been bedridden for more than three months.

He was recovering from a serious injury. Although he had spiritual energy to support him, his body was still too weak. He sat outside for a while and then returned to the room to lie down and rest.

He was in bed before and was in a coma, but this time he was asleep. When he woke up, it was already evening. At this time, there were already people outside the house, and he could hear the breathing of people outside the house.

When he saw that the woman who was sitting up and lighting a fire in front of the stove came over hurriedly, she pointed to the outside of the house, indicating that there was someone outside.

He nodded, put on his shoes and went to the ground. His previous clothes were already riddled with holes. He was now wearing a gray cloth gown. He didn't know where the woman found it.

After going out, I found a group of villagers gathered outside the house. Most of them were old and weak, women and children, but few were able-bodied. They might have been waiting for a long time. They were all sitting on the ground. When they saw him appear, everyone hurriedly stood up and thanked him in all directions.

Based on the tone and demeanor of everyone, he guessed that everyone was thanking him, rather than understanding everyone's language. He tried to speak a few words in Chinese, but everyone looked at each other, obviously not understanding.

The woman walked out of the house, walked into the crowd, pulled out an old man with gray hair, and then made a gesture of writing.

Upon seeing this, she immediately understood that the old man could not read. The woman pulled the old man into the house, took out the medicine box left by the old doctor, found some pen and ink, and then gestured to indicate that the two of them could write and talk.

Only then did she remember her talisman-drawing implement, but when she pointed to her left arm, the woman looked confused. Seeing this situation, she did not continue to explore. The talisman-drawing implement stuck on her left arm was probably lost in the previous melee.

.

He wrote first and asked about the location. The old man wrote an answer, saying that the village was called Pingshan and it belonged to Gaoling County and Xiongchuan Prefecture.

We know that the location of Xiongchuan is located in the southeastern area of ​​Taibai Mountain. It is not far from the area where Yinhu is located, no more than five hundred miles away.

Kirigakure Shinichi opened the Purple Qi Xuanmen very hastily that day. The group of Japanese pirates might have come to this village before, and Kirigakure Shinichi subconsciously thought of this place at the critical moment.

Then he asked what was going on with those soldiers, and the old man wrote a reply. It turned out that those soldiers were sent by the Silla royal court to the coast to resist Japanese pirates. There were two reasons why they broke into the village. First, Pingshan was located at the southern foot of Taebaek Mountain.

It is very suitable for the growth of ginseng, and most of the villagers are good at finding ginseng. The soldiers came here for ginseng.

Another reason is that Japanese pirates always invaded the border. The Silla court always blamed the border soldiers for being timid and incompetent. If these border soldiers couldn't defeat the Japanese pirates, they would massacre the people and use the people's heads to claim credit.

He deeply sympathized with the villagers' plight, but this was Silla and he was wary of meddling in foreign affairs.

Seeing that Wu had expressed his position, the woman beside him spoke eagerly, and the old man wrote and translated. He only said that the woman's husband and children had died at the hands of the soldiers, and the woman hoped that he could avenge her husband and children.

When the woman said this, he couldn't refuse. In fact, he had already guessed that the woman was not asking for anything to save him. The woman should have known that she knew martial arts, because if she didn't know martial arts, she wouldn't have so many scars on her body.
