After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Ugh, the more I think about it, the more unlucky it gets.

I drank ginger soup, took a bath, and had a good sleep feeling relaxed. When I woke up the next day, I didn't have any after-effects, except that my face looked a little paler.

According to the doorman, Gongsun Wen has not returned since he went out last night.

Yingchun and her friends cleaned the carriage early in the morning and replaced all the things in the carriage, saying that they were afraid that I would feel disgusted.

I had breakfast and strolled around the yard. The house was not big, and it only took a few minutes to walk from the front to the back.

When I sneaked into the stable, I saw Wei Chang feeding the horse, and An Kang was helping him. But An Kang was too seriously injured, so Wei Chang didn't dare to let him do heavy work, and just let him brush the horse's hair with a brush.

When Wei Chang saw me, he just nodded as a greeting.

When Ankang saw me, he came over happily and said with a smile, "Second Young Master, the weather is nice today, do you want to go out for a walk?"

I smiled and shook my head, saying, "It seems things aren't very peaceful lately. I always run into trouble when I go out. Let's just be quiet for a few days."

Ankang looked at my face seriously and said, "The second young master doesn't look very well. Last time, His Majesty sent a lot of high-grade ginseng. I'll go make ginseng chicken soup for the second young master."

It seemed nice to have a bowl of warm ginseng chicken soup on such a cold day, so I nodded and said, "Then stew more, everyone can have a sip, and give some to my eldest brother as well."

When Ankang heard this, he immediately felt that he had a great responsibility. He nodded happily and said, "I know. I'll go right away."

Ankang put down the horse brush, turned around and ran to the kitchen.

Seeing him running so fast, I quickly shouted, "Your wound hasn't healed yet, walk slower, don't tear the wound apart."

Ankang's voice came from afar: "I know..."

After feeding the horse with hay, Wei Chang picked up the brush that Ankang had put down and started brushing the horse vigorously.

I looked at the shiny horse and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a good horse breeder."

Without even looking up, Wei Chang said, "Animals are more loyal than humans."

One of my colleagues said, “It’s true that people lie and stab people in the back, but animals don’t.”

Wei Chang then raised his head and looked at me, asking, "What do you want to say?"

I patted the horse's belly and said, "Who do you belong to?"

Wei Chang's eyes sank, and then he said, "Of course I am yours."

I laughed and said, "You're quite quick to react. You are His Majesty's secret guard, and secret guards should not be known to the public. But it seems that you have a close relationship with Lord Gongsun, which is really puzzling."

After hearing this, Wei Chang snorted coldly and said, "There are so many things that are puzzling, not just this one."

There are two tall pear trees planted next to the stable. Their leaves have fallen off and the branches are covered with thick snow. When the wind blows, the snow on the branches falls down with a rustling sound.

I looked at the two pear trees and said, "How beautiful it will be next spring when the pear trees bloom."

After brushing the horse's fur, Wei Chang grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed it on the horse's body, saying, "I don't like eating pears, so I don't care whether there are many flowers or not, or whether they are beautiful or not."

I said unhappily, "You are just a wooden man, how can you know whether it is beautiful or not."

Wei Chang didn't respond and concentrated on tending to his horse.

I glanced at the gate and said, "Lord Gongsun rode away with my horse last night and hasn't come back yet. I don't know where he went."

Wei Chang glanced at me and asked, "Are you worried about Lord Gongsun?"

I rolled my eyes at Wei Chang and said, "I'm worried about my horse."

Wei Chang twitched his lips but said nothing.

After a while, I saw that Wei Chang had almost finished, so I asked him, "How much do you know about internal energy training?"

Wei Chang paused, and while cleaning the stables, he asked, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

I said, "Because I have a book of internal energy skills, but I don't know how to guide the energy into the body. I have practiced for several nights, but I still can't find the key."

Wei Chang put down his work, looked at me seriously and said, "Internal strength cannot be practiced casually. You haven't even learned to walk yet, but you want to learn to fly. Be careful not to rush into things and go astray."

I kicked the snow on the ground and said, "Of course I know. If the person who gave me the inner strength method (oh, it was a ghost) was not unreliable, I would not have asked you."

"Who gave it to you?" Wei Chang asked with a frown.

I answered, "River God Li Yan."

Wei Chang looked like someone had pressed acupoints on him, staring at me blankly without moving.

I stretched out my hand and waved it in front of Wei Chang's eyes. Wei Chang opened my hand and asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that the river god Li Yan gave you a book on internal energy cultivation?"

I nodded.

Wei Chang took a deep breath and said, "Do you know who Li Yan was when he was alive?"

I shook my head. To be honest, I really don’t know.

Wei Chang said: "Before this continent was torn apart, there was only one country. The people of this country did not fight against others, but only against heaven. At that time, humans were very weak, natural disasters continued, and ferocious beasts were rampant. In order to survive, humans continued to learn training methods from gods and beasts, hoping to strengthen themselves. Li Yan is a person who has received the grace of God. Although he is thin, he is extremely powerful. He created a set of internal skills. After unremitting efforts, he actually opened up the eight extraordinary meridians in his body, strengthened his muscles and bones, and greatly increased his strength. He could easily kill a tiger with one punch, and finally became a god of war that shocked all directions."

I didn't expect that Li Yan was such a powerful person when he was alive.

I thought about it and said, "According to what you said, if I master Li Yan's inner strength, can I become a god of war like him?"

Wei Chang paused for a long time before saying, "I don't know if you can become a god of war, but if you really succeed, I'm afraid there will be no rivals in the world."

"Wow." My eyes lit up immediately when I heard it.

I said happily, "As long as I can beat Zhao Zhenyuan, I'll make him feel the pain of being beaten so hard that he can't get out of bed for half a month."

Wei Chang......

Wei Chang thought it was a bit unrealistic, and he didn't believe that Li Yan would teach me the inner skills. Li Yan had been dead for thousands of years, and he could come to teach me the inner skills, that was really weird.

So Wei Chang said to me earnestly: "Ah Man, you must be down-to-earth in everything you do, one step at a time. Thinking of reaching the sky in one step will only harm you. Now that I see that you are almost well, you can continue to practice tomorrow. As long as you practice the basic skills well, whether it is boxing, swordsmanship, or stick techniques, it will be easy to practice them."

Seeing that Wei Chang didn't believe me, I said angrily, "If you don't want to teach me, forget it. I'll figure it out on my own."

Seeing how angry I was, Wei Chang had no choice but to say, "It's not that I don't want to teach you, but everyone's internal skills are different. What I learned is the skills that my master has taught us since we were young. If I use the internal skills I have practiced to teach you to practice other people's skills, I'm afraid it will mislead you to practice and cause you to get into trouble. It will be terrible if you go astray."
