Chapter 717
Chapter 717
Chen Chen accidentally revealed his true face and was regretting it. However, when he saw Zhang Xiaohua almost falling off the horse, he couldn't help but feel happy. After lying for a long time, wasn't this a happy moment?
Chen Chen was so happy that he swayed back and forth and laughed heartily. There was no trace of the majesty of the inner disciple just now.
Not only Aunt Qin and Zhong Pei, but even the few inner sect disciples accompanying them had faces full of astonishment.
After Chen Chen finished laughing, he sat up straight again and coughed twice. His voice was as calm as usual as he said, "Well, Ren Xiaoyao, you're very good. Your martial arts are good and you get along well with the disciples of the Pill-Toppling Hall. You can be considered an excellent talent. If there's a chance in the future, I'll put in a good word for you in front of the Sect Master."
As soon as he said that, everyone around him was filled with admiration. Zhong Pei was even more jealous. What kind of relationship was this? Just fooling a few burly men from Tian Mu Peak and exchanging a few stalks of herbs for their pills, and that was it?
Then … then what had they done all these years? Wasn't it better than what they had done in the past few days? Was this the legendary "having connections in the court makes it easier to be an official"?
Zhang Xiaohua looked "surprised" and repeatedly cupped her hands at Chen Chen. She said, "So it's Chen … Lord. I was wondering which inner disciple was so approachable and amiable as usual, making me feel like bathing in the spring breeze. Since it's Lord Chen, it's really not strange. Oh, by the way, Lord Kong, Lord Xia, how are they?"
Chen Chen beamed with joy. "Good, good, very good.
It's just that you can't go to Lingxiang Peak. Otherwise, I'll take you to see them. "
Aunt Qin, Zhong Pei, and the other disciples' jaws dropped to the ground. This inconspicuous little medicine boy of the Pill-Toppling Hall even knew Peacock and Xia Qing. Could this guy be a relative of the Sect Master?
Then, Chen Chen felt a little strange and asked, "But according to what you said, you went to Tianmu Peak as soon as you arrived at the Pill-Toppling Hall. You didn't even see Elder Zi Shen. How could he know you?
And he even let you be a disciple on duty at Shixin Peak? "
Then he looked at Aunt Qin and smiled, "The Misty Hall is famous for its unity. The disciples on duty in the other halls have suffered a lot in their hands. Your martial arts might be good, but you've only been in the Fragrant Cult for a few months. You don't know anything. How can you succeed?"
Zhang Xiaohua pondered for a moment. It was not a secret that she had participated in the Youlan Dusk Refinement. That day at the exit of the Youlan Grand Canyon, Chen Chen only cared about running away and did not see her. Otherwise, he would not be here listening to her. She just had to talk about the unimportant things.
Thus, he cleared his throat and said, "About this, it is because this little one participated in the 'Orchid Evening Refinement' and accumulated a little merit!"
"Twilight Orchid Refinement" Chen Chen was shocked and pointed at Zhang Xiaohua. "You … You also participated?
I … Why didn't I see you?
And … you actually made it out alive! "
Then she realized, "Are you the disciple of the Tuodan Hall saved by the disciple of the Misty Hall?"
Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and said with a wry smile, "Replying to Lord Chen, it is this little one. This little one relied on Senior Zhang Xiaohu of the Misty Hall to escape from the Youlan Grand Canyon."
Zhong Pei's face was extremely ugly and he wanted to say something but stopped.
Chen Chen's interest was piqued and she quickly said, "Quick, tell me about it."
Zhong Pei quickly stepped forward and said, "Reporting to Envoy Chen, it's getting late. Let's hurry up. Hall Master Yang is still waiting for Envoy Chen on the mountain."
Chen Chen casually looked at the mountain path and said, "Am I not going up the mountain?
You don't have to say more! "
Zhong Pei was rebuffed and had to follow behind.
Beside him, Aunt Qin was happy and also slowed down her pace, thinking that the mountain path was getting longer and longer.
Zhang Xiaohua was well aware of Chen Chen's character, so he told him about the thrilling experience he had in the Valley Orchid Dusk. Of course, he did not mention anything about Deputy Hall Master Xu and Lu Lihong. He only said that he had made a mistake and the Hall Master wanted him to pick the Ice Soul Grass.
When he heard that Zhang Xiaohua saw him at the exit of the Youlan Grand Canyon and that he was running in the front and that Zhang Xiaohua sacrificed herself to lead the "yellow wind" to Lu Chaoxian and the other disciples out of danger, he could not help but be silent. After a long while, he stretched out his jade-like hand and patted Zhang Xiaohua's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Ren Xiaoyao, you … You are really good. I … I didn't expect you to be so benevolent!"
Zhang Xiaohua was sweating profusely. That jade-like hand patting his shoulder was a little mushy.
He could only smile apologetically and say, "I don't know why I was so hot-blooded that day. Maybe it's because the feelings between men are different. I couldn't bear to see them lose their lives. Now that I think about it, I'm scared.
Also, did Lord Chen have other important matters to attend to that you couldn't care about other things? "
Chen Chen was stunned and then his voice became a little louder. He found a reason to be at ease and said, "Yes, you are right. If I didn't have to protect Junior Sister Zixia, how could I be in such a difficult situation …"
"Zixia?" Zhang Xiaohua nodded. She guessed that it was the woman in purple who was holding Chen Chen's hand that day!
Then Zhang Xiaohua cupped his hands and said, "That's right. I think with Lord Chen's chivalry, if it wasn't an urgent matter, he wouldn't have to be like this."
"That's right!" Chen Chen echoed unwillingly.
But then she felt strange and said, "But that 'Yellow Wind' was unusually brave. It was like the wind. How could you escape with your life?"
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua exerted his strength. His face suddenly turned pale and he looked frightened. He said in a trembling voice, "Lord Chen, please don't mention it. Speaking of this, I'm just scared. What on earth was that thing that was like the wind?
I still don't know … You don't know that when I ran in front, it chased after me. It disappeared for a while and then appeared again. At first, my neck was cut by it. You see … "
After that, he was about to show his neck. Chen Chen couldn't look at his neck. He waved his hand and said, "Then … what happened later?"
"Later, I don't know what happened. That thing slowed down a little. But then I didn't know where I ran to. I saw a very deep cliff and then I heard a cry that resounded through the sky. Then I felt a pain in the back of my head and fainted. I guess I was killed by that thing!"
"Ah?"
Chen Chen was also surprised. Knowing that Zhang Xiaohua was in front of him, he also shouted, "Why did the 'Yellow Wind' come from the back of your head?
Didn't it tear the throat? "
Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Chen, I don't know. At that time, I didn't care about anything and tried my best to run to a place with many trees. I was afraid that thing would catch up with me.
Hmm, now that I think about it, it was because I ran into the valley that the thing was afraid that someone would come out from the exit, so it hesitated. Or perhaps there was something wrong with that thing, so it slowed down the more it chased me. In the end, it knocked me out. Perhaps it thought that I was already dead.
Chen Chen was thoughtful, but Zhang Xiaohua was nervous. He didn't know if this lie could be deceived by Chen Chen.
After a long while, Chen Chen asked again, "Ren Xiaoyao, can you tell me what happened after you met Zhang Xiaohu?"
Zhong Pei, who was at the side, couldn't help but want to remind him. However, after patting his horse and taking two steps forward, he stopped. Nonsense, you've repeatedly disturbed the Inner Court Emissary's observation of the people's situation. Isn't it obvious that you have a guilty conscience?
Zhang Xiaohua was also stunned and secretly said, "What's there to say? Isn't it all a story made up with Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law?
Could it be that the people of Lingxiang Peak saw something wrong? "
After thinking for a while, he cleared his throat and told the story that he had discussed with Zhang Xiaohu one by one. Even the matter of saving the inner disciple was put on Zhang Xiaohu. Of course, in the middle of the story, Zhang Xiaohua did not forget to praise herself. "Lord Chen, the inner disciple's bones were all set by me. If there's any merit, don't forget me. I don't dare to share with Senior Brother Zhang Xiaohu. I'll just give a little reward."
As he said, he stretched out his little finger and gestured the size of a fingertip.
Chen Chen laughed out loud and said, "If you didn't tell me, I really wouldn't know. When I have the chance, I'll definitely report this matter to the Sect Master."
Then he asked, "Where did you learn the technique of setting bones?"
Zhang Xiaohua was surprised and said, "Lord Chen, don't you know?
I came from Rejuvenation Valley. The medical skills of Rejuvenation Valley are also famous in Jianghu. "
"Isn't that so?" Chen Chen patted his forehead and said, "I really forgot about this."
Then, Zhang Xiaohua followed up with a casual look, "Lord Chen, why have you come to the Ethereal Hall today?
Is it to reward Senior Brother Zhang for saving the inner disciple? "
The corners of Chen Chen's mouth under the veil curled up and he said with a smile, "How can you know the whereabouts of the inner disciple?"
Then, he looked at the disciples of Shixin Peak who were already in sight and said with a smile, "Let's go. You're just in time. Follow me and you'll know!"
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry and secretly complained, "Isn't it just an inner disciple?
What's so great about it?
I, Shaoxia, have been talking all the way and my mouth is dry. Can't I let you say a word?
Hehe, if it weren't for my second brother's reputation, I, Shaoxia, would be too lazy to talk to you! "
Although he thought so, his mouth was tight and he said modestly, "I'll listen to Lord Chen's orders. In front of Lord Chen, I'm willing to lead the horse and serve you faithfully."
"Pfft" Chen Chen laughed again and said, "Forget it. I don't need you to do this. Just watch from the side!"
On Shixin Peak, Yang Ruping and Hall Master Yang had been waiting anxiously for a long time. After several waves of disciples came up to report, there was no news, which made her very anxious. Although there would be no accidents on the mountain road of Shixin Peak, she was a little confused because she hadn't come up for a long time.
Yang Ruping was not relieved until she saw the figures of the crowd. But even so, Chen Chen and others still went up the mountain slowly, which made her frown and her heart moved for no reason, "Is this a show of strength from His Excellency?
I don't know which Junior Sister this messenger is. I only heard that her surname is Chen. I don't know if she is easy to get along with! "
