Chapter 56 I will take care of your wife.
The sun shone brightly, and the sky was cloudless.
Western Xia.
It is about ten miles outside Lingzhou City.
A long line of people, not yet allowed to enter the city, set up camp here to rest.
The people were of course Western Xia people, and the horses were naturally Western Xia horses as well.
As for the hundreds of Song men and women strung together with ropes, the Western Xia people clearly did not consider them human beings, but rather slaves, goods, and spoils of war.
Qi Ming was also a spoil of war, his hands were also bound, and he looked "dejected".
That's obviously an act.
As for the purpose, it was to sneak into the Western Xia palace and peep at the Western Xia imperial concubine taking a bath...
Weird.
This might be the 97 version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.
Li Qiushui, the Western Xia princess consort and one of the successors of the Xiaoyao Sect, should be an old woman, which is completely inconsistent with the original work.
Qi Ming is very respectful of his elders and would never have any romantic feelings for her.
But I was quite curious about her martial arts skills.
So they were captured, and along the way they explored the route and familiarized themselves with the road conditions, which would make it easier for them to act later.
As for why they didn't go to the Wuliang Mountain Cave to find the Northern Darkness Divine Skill...
the reason is simple.
Qi Ming is relatively close to this area.
You can go check it out first, and then head to Dali after confirming it's the 97 version.
After all, in this version of the story, many of the important scenes that originally belonged to Li Qiushui were given to a woman named "Qi Yufeng".
Qi Yufeng and Wu Yazi went into seclusion, where they had a daughter named Li Qingluo and left behind a secret manual...
Night fell.
The slaves were given only one meal a day, and it was thin gruel. They all looked listless and went to sleep early.
The Western Xia soldiers on guard relaxed their vigilance and drank and gambled nearby.
Looking at the silver disc in the sky, Qi Ming couldn't help but recite a poem:
"Who polished this flying mirror? It illuminates the universe, reflecting mountains and rivers... Laozi sings aloud, asking Chang'e, 'On this languid night, how can one not get drunk?'"
Upon hearing this, a tall, muscular young man with thick eyebrows and large eyes revealed a fascinating expression on his dark face!
He hesitated for a long time before whispering in Qi Ming's ear:
"Brother, you've recited this poem. What should Zhang Yanghao of the Yuan Dynasty recite?"
Qi Ming was also taken aback and looked at the young man, saying:
"If Heaven had feelings, it would easily grow old?"
The young man exclaimed excitedly, "The vicissitudes of life are the true path of humanity! I am Han... He Fang, and I was transported here after a plane crash!"
Qi Ming looked even more bewildered: "Did you transmigrate from another world?"
The young man hummed in agreement, his voice becoming steady:
"The unfortunate soul I transmigrated into is named Han Gang, courtesy name Yu Kun. He's a disciple of Hengqu, and a scholar at that! Who are you, and how did you end up here?"
Han Dachui, you're dressed awfully!
Qi Ming sighed feigning surprise: "You definitely won't believe me if I told you."
"What's there to disbelieve!"
He Fang lowered his voice and said, "We've all transmigrated here, and by sheer coincidence, we've all been captured by these Western Xia soldiers. What a twist of fate! Even if we don't die now, we'll be living in darkness from now on. Are we really going to scheme against each other?"
He encouraged him further, saying, "Brother, we are all modern people with the advantage of foresight. As long as we can escape back to the Song Dynasty, there is much we can achieve!"
Is there much to be accomplished? Using so-called "Qi philosophy" transformed by materialism to seize control of Confucianism and promote industrialization?
Yelü Hongji, whom Xiao Feng painstakingly rescued, fell in love with hot air balloons and then crashed into a bloody pulp.
It is suspected that he spent the night in the emperor's bed and had sex with the empress.
Qi Ming shook his head and sighed, "There's something fishy going on! Have you ever heard of the names 'Southern Murong' and 'Northern Qiao Feng'?"
"ah?!!"
He Fang's eyes widened: "Is this the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils?"
Then, excitedly, he exclaimed, "Isn't that even better? We can learn martial arts too!"
Qi Ming chuckled: "Before I transmigrated, I was a PhD in biology and pharmacology from Peking University. I'll test you on solving a partial differential equation."
He Fang exclaimed in a low voice, "Dude, you're amazing! I don't need to take the exam anymore. I'm not very good at advanced mathematics."
"Then what makes you think you can learn martial arts?"
"If you can't learn martial arts, you can always work in technology!"
"You're into technology, he's got superhuman skills! I've seen masters fight, and the spectacle was beyond what's depicted in the original story! I even suspect this is the 97 version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, have you seen it? The power of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms is comparable to a mortar platoon."
"Holy crap?!"
He Fang was stunned for a while before reluctantly saying:
"What about Wu Yazi? We all know his approach to solving the Zhenlong Chess Game. We can study it first! There's always a way out."
Qi Ming shook his head.
He Fang said with exasperation, "With such a high level of education, how can you be so timid?"
Qi Ming took out two Blood Orchid Eggplants from his pocket, handed one to him, rubbed his fingers together a few times, and easily lit it for him.
He Fang's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as he exclaimed incredulously:
"A cigar? Where did it come from? You lit it by rubbing your fingers together? That's martial arts!"
Qi Ming took a puff and said, "I don't want to cause trouble because I'm not interested. In the last world, I was an emperor, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Eighth Prince, was my little brother."
"The...the previous world?"
"Have you seen Anaconda? These two cigars of mine are made from fermented blood orchid leaves. Not only will they not harm your lungs, but they can also prolong your life."
"..."
"Don't be so surprised! Nowadays, time travelers can travel multiple times. You can too. Once this eggplant is finished, I'll send you on your way."
"Can you travel through time again after you die?"
"Why would I lie to you? If I really had ill intentions towards you, I would have killed you with one blow. Why would I give you cigars? I've studied the Blood Orchid for many years, spending a billion US dollars, and only obtained three hundred. If you spread out the cost, each one is over twenty million. That's enough to buy several of your lives!"
"Could I... wear it after I've finished learning martial arts?"
Which of Jin Yong's martial arts styles do you like best?
"Uh... Nine Yin Nine Yang?"
"I've learned all of that, and it's the movie version, so it's much more powerful. How's your memory?"
"I feel that my memory is better after time travel than before."
"That's good."
Qi Ming didn't lie to Han Dachui.
He genuinely wanted to know if the other party could time travel again.
Unfortunately, I'm afraid this answer will not be accepted.
A cigar is finished.
Qi Ming tore the ropes, killed all the soldiers, and left with Han Dachui.
Three days later.
Han Dachui has memorized the Nine Yang Manual perfectly and is preparing to time travel again.
He said gratefully, "Brother, you've helped me so much, I have no way to thank you, and I need your help again."
Qi Ming nodded and asked, "What is it?"
"I understand now! My home is on Qinfeng Road, which is quite far from here, and I suddenly fainted one day. When I woke up, I was a slave. This is very strange..."
Han Dachui said angrily, "It must be some kind of expert who kidnapped my Yunniang and dumped me on this bandit army... I beg you, brother, to investigate this matter in the future and rescue her. If we ever meet again, I will repay you handsomely."
Yunniang?
A foreign girl, with exotic charm?
Qi Mengde nodded and said, "I will take care of your wife and children, so don't worry!"
Han Dachui was having a hard time keeping his composure, but he still wrote another letter, telling Yunniang to rest assured and follow Brother Ming from now on.
Then, with a single palm strike, he was reborn into a new world.
