Records of Mysterious Things in the Southern Dynasties

Chapter 159: Nowhere to be found after wearing iron shoes

With the level of the Fifth Dimension and Nangong, they could naturally feel Ren Yuan's investigation.

The latter waved his hand gently, and Ren Yuan could no longer see or hear what was happening between them.

"The Shangqing Sect's skills are indeed mysterious. When I opened my main orifice, it took me seven days and seven nights to find the way." Nangong exclaimed: "I didn't expect this kid to master it in less than a day."

"Yeah, that's amazing." The Fifth Dimension also nodded and said, "How long have I been here? I don't remember, but it seems to be quite a while."

"You only took one day..." Nangong glanced at him charmingly. "If I didn't know you have a bad memory, I would have thought you were showing off."

"That's still longer than his. What do I have to brag about?" The Fifth Dimension said with a faint smile.

"Whose martial arts is he practicing? How could you have the conditions to do it?" Although Nangong admired Ren Yuan very much, in her heart, the fifth dimension was the unique one.

"I like to hear that." Diwuwei smiled and asked, "Why don't you hand the Nine True Powder to him personally?"

"Of course you are the one who should do this favor. I don't need him to be grateful to me for anything." Nangong said as a matter of course.

"Alas." The Fifth Dimension sighed and said, "You suffer a lot from this character."

Nangong rolled his eyes and thought to himself, is it okay to do this only for you?

"What about the other one?" the fifth dimension asked again.

"Give it to Yang Zhong. He has been out for so long, and even if he has no credit, he has worked hard." Nangong said.

"Okay. I think the same as you. He needs it right now." The Fifth Dimension nodded.

Thousand miles on the ship.

When Chen Baxian and Yang Zhong boarded the boat at the same time, they saw that the other three passengers had already arrived.

"Yeah, you two are here."

"how is it going?"

"Why didn't the captain come on board with you?" the three asked hurriedly. They couldn't wait to know the result of the battle in Peach Blossom Spring.

"The ship owner cannot board the ship for the time being." Chen Baxian answered deliberately.

"What's wrong? Is he hurt?" the little monk asked hurriedly with concern.

"Or was he captured by the people from the Ghost Country?" the little girl Huan'er also asked.

"Can you two think of something better?" Chen Lingzhi said speechlessly: "Do they look like they are in trouble?"

"Hehe, nothing can be hidden from Miss Lingzhi." Chen Baxian finally told the truth: "We are now being escorted to the capital by the fifth owner. We are all on the same boat. How dare Yuan rashly use the Youxian Pillow? If someone finds out that he disappeared at night, wouldn't that be a mess?"

"We are different. Our physical bodies are still sleeping soundly there. We have no choice but to get on the boat." Yang Zhong also laughed.

Chen Baxian then told the three of them the story of that great battle. He had a good eloquence, and the battle was exciting enough, so he gave a very exaggerated account!

What about the fifth main illusion array trapping the enemy, Tianliangzi flooding the seven armies, Taoist Bao and Ren Yuan fighting against the ghost general Qiang Liang, and of course he did not forget to brag about his peerless heroic figure charging into the battle on horseback!

"Of course, the second brother was also very brave and supported my attack very well..." As for Yang Zhong's performance, he just mentioned it briefly.

Yang Zhong curled his lips, too lazy to argue with him.

Faxiu and Huan'er were fascinated by what they heard and kept asking, "And then, what then?"

"Then we worked together to wipe them out in one fell swoop, and only two ghost generals with great magical powers escaped." Although Yang Zhong did not argue with him, he directly gave him a spoiler.

"Second brother, why are you so mean?" Chen Baxian immediately lost interest. "Oh, what a bummer..." Faxiu and Huan'er also lost interest in listening. Knowing the result, they no longer worried about the fate of the characters...

"Did Master Bao cure the ship owner's sister's illness?" Chen Lingzhi, who had been listening with a smile on her face, finally opened her red lips.

"No." Chen Baxian shook his head and said, "The Taoist priest can indeed cure the elder sister's illness. But after the cure, the elder sister will return to her mortal body and will not be able to fight as well."

"Why does a girl need to be so good at fighting?" Huan'er asked puzzledly.

"She said she wanted to protect Yuan." Chen Baxian sighed, "It's worth it that Yuan treated her so well."

"Is that so? Then just give her the detoxification and let her continue to be able to fight well, isn't that the end of it?" Huan'er had an expression that said 'is this that difficult?'

"Hey, little girl, you're saying something like 'Why don't you eat meat?'" Chen Baxian said unhappily, "Don't talk without any hesitation."

"I don't feel any pain in my waist when I sit and talk." Huan'er snorted and said, "A frog in a well doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."

"Have you ever been out of your home? Why do you say others are frogs in a well?" Chen Baxian said with a smile.

"There are many talented people in this world, you just don't know them." Huan'er raised her head proudly, pointed at Chen Baxian with her chin and said, "How can the art of incantation be so inconvenient?"

"Hey, you little bitch are so arrogant." Chen Baxian was not annoyed, and asked with a smile: "You said I don't know, then do you know?"

"Of course I know." Huan'er said with increasing pride, "I know a great doctor in Beijing who can definitely do it."

Chen Lingzhi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he agreed: "If your... friend is willing to help, it would definitely be great."

"Ah, really?!" Huan'er said that Chen Baxian might not believe it, but after Chen Lingzhi said so, Chen Baxian had to believe it.

He bowed excitedly and said, "My dear sister, I was blind and didn't recognize the great man. Please don't take my nonsense to heart. Can you please introduce a famous doctor to Ayao? I will be grateful to you forever."

"Rare." Huan'er snorted and said, "She's not your senior sister, why are you in such a hurry?"

"The sooner she recovers, the sooner I'll be safe." Chen Baxian deliberately smiled bitterly, "Otherwise, I'd be nervous even when I make a joke, for fear that she'd poke a hole in my eye one day."

"You deserve it." Huan'er was amused and giggled. Her cuteness and naivety carried a hint of charm that didn't match her age.

"But the problem is, that...famous doctor is hard for ordinary people to see." Chen Lingzhi said worriedly, "What's more, the three of them are imperial prisoners. Once they enter the capital, they will be taken to the Gouchen Prison, and it will be even more impossible for them to see her."

"Oh, this is a problem." Huan'er stroked her round chin, thought for a while, and said to Chen Lingzhi: "Please tell me a fortune."

"Okay." Chen Lingzhi smiled helplessly, gathered his sleeves and calculated for a moment, and said, "I got four words, 'Hejian Bird Island'."

"What does that mean?" Everyone was puzzled when they heard the strange laughter of the Three Lives Beast above their heads:

"Haha, come to us for the guessing game."

"You can't even guess something so simple, you're too lame!"

"Shiratsu, you idiot."

"Bai Luzhou, isn't it outside the Shuixi Gate in the capital?" Yang Zhong slapped his thigh and said, "We are going back to Jiankang by water this time, and we are entering the city from the Shuixi Gate."

"That's great." Huan'er also patted her head and said, "I remember now. My...brother said that the Crown Prince invited great scholars from the capital to give lectures at Bailuzhou Academy these days. It seems that the place where the ship owner's sister is treated has to be here."

Her lively big eyes rolled around a few times, and she whispered to Chen Lingzhi for a while. Chen Lingzhi shook his head subconsciously at first, but was finally convinced by her.

Chen Lingzhi coughed lightly and said, "I'll do some calculations for you guys in the next few days to see how we can meet when the time comes."

"That's great!" Chen Baxian imitated Huan'er's tone and said happily, "It seems that we have to go to the capital!"
