As soon as the village chief left, many young men and women gathered outside the house, leaning against the windows and pointing and talking.
Wang Tuo's face turned stern. "Have you finished practicing? Do you want me to call the instructor over to check you guys?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's color changed, and most of them ran away in the blink of an eye. Only a few brave ones were still hiding in the window corners, peeking inside silently.
The room fell silent. Wang Tuo didn't bother to care anymore. He turned around and smiled at Xiang Sheng, "Our village is pretty good, isn't it?"
Xiang Sheng looked out the window at the beautiful mountains and the gurgling water, and nodded slightly: "This is the paradise on earth, and it's just like this."
Wang Tuo chuckled and sighed, "This is a little secret place passed down from generation to generation. It's just a little out of the way. If the elders on patrol hadn't happened to see us, we would have frozen to death at our doorstep."
Xiang Sheng was stunned for a moment, frowning slightly, "You were sealed too?"
"No problem."
Wang Tuo waved out a wisp of fire essence, "The Four Extremes Restriction didn't erode deeply. I lay down for four or five days, and the restriction dissolved on its own, and my meridians are flowing smoothly now."
Xiang Sheng's brows relaxed slightly when he heard this, "That's good."
"Don't think too much about it for now."
Wang Tuo went on to comfort him, "The medicine Grandpa prepared for you is excellent. It won't cause a riot in the Four Extremes. You'll be able to get out of bed in a few days. Don't worry, I'll be watching over there. I'll come and tell you any news I have."
Xiang Sheng was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
The two chatted for a while, and when Wang Tuo saw that Xiang Sheng looked tired, he stood up and left, and drove away the remaining lively people.
The surroundings became completely quiet.
Seeing that there was no one around, Xiang Sheng thought about it, and a gourd filled with Yuanquan suddenly appeared.
Looking at the gourd in her hand, a glimmer flashed in her eyes.
Yuanquan is not like the elixir for cultivation. It is mild in nature and will not cause the Four Extremes to riot after drinking it. Its healing effect remains unchanged.
Although it will not cause a riot in the Four Extreme Bans, it will strengthen the effects of the Four Extreme Bans and increase the frequency of the Four Extreme Bans getting out of control.
Losing control and rioting are different, but the pain is real. No matter which one it is, she needs to seal her six senses to barely get through it.
So on the way to the glacier, in order to shorten the travel time, she didn't dare to drink a single sip.
Now that I'm in Wangjia Village, I don't have to worry about the dangers of painful sleepiness. This can actually speed up my recovery...
After pondering for a moment, Xiang Sheng closed his eyes and finally put the gourd away.
There are too many secrets in the "Deceiving Heaven" formation, and she doesn't want to bring disaster here.
…
"Grandpa, how is Xiang Sheng's injury? Please tell me something!"
In the study, Wang Tuo stuck behind the old village chief, looking as if he would not give up until he got the answer.
The old village chief took an ancient jade slip from the shelf, placed it between his eyebrows for a moment, then put it back and continued searching calmly, saying, "As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. You're so anxious, could it be that you've fallen for that girl?"
Wang Tuo glared at him, "How could you make up stories about your grandson like that? Xiang Sheng and I have a life-long brotherhood, and to hear you say that... is so vulgar!"
"That's good."
The old village chief chuckled, "If you intermarry with the human race, your ancestors will probably be so angry that they will come back to life and pull out your tendons and peel off your skin."
Wang Tuo's face changed slightly, and his relaxed and honest expression rarely appeared. He said coldly: "Why do you bring this up?"
The old village chief glanced at him lightly and shook his head slightly: "After going out for a while, how come your temper is still like this? You get angry at the slightest thing."
Wang Tuo pursed his lips and said, "It was you who broke your promise and brought up this matter first."
"Never mind, it's Grandpa's fault."
The old village chief waved his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "The injuries of your brother who passed away were so severe that I have never seen such a serious injury in my life."
Wang Tuo was shocked and immediately forgot the previous topic. He kept asking, "Even you can't do anything?"
"It's not that Grandpa's medical skills are not good enough."
The old village chief's expression was slightly solemn. "But Grandpa just can't understand why that girl...is still alive, even though her body is in such a state of exhaustion?"
Five days passed in a flash.
The person who came to serve meals and change dressings for the past five days was the girl Xiang Sheng had seen when he woke up before, named Wang Yue'er.
Every time Wang Yue'er came over, she never had a good word to say, but she took care of Xiang Sheng very carefully and nothing went wrong.
On the sixth day, Wang Yue'er removed the bandage for Xiang Sheng. Seeing the crisscrossing purple marks on his legs, she looked a little uneasy. She turned her head away and snorted, "Even though you're almost healed, you're still weak! Don't run around, or you'll cause me trouble."
Xiang Sheng found her insincere expression adorable and smiled gently, "I'll listen to Miss Yue'er."
"What girl?"
Wang Yueer stood up and snorted, "I asked Brother Tuo, you are younger than me, call me sister!"
Xiang Sheng followed suit and obediently called out, "Sister Yue'er."
Wang Yueer didn't expect Xiang Sheng to scream, and her face turned red instantly, "You...you..."
She muttered for a long time, stammering without saying a complete sentence. In anger, she picked up the medicine box and ran away.
Xiang Sheng burst out laughing, this was really funny.
The people in Wangjia Village are too simple and kind, no wonder they developed a character like Wang Tuo.
She picked up the crutches that Wang Yue'er had prepared by the bed and pushed open the door.
A breeze blew by, seemingly blowing away the depression of being bedridden for several days. A smile appeared on Xiang Sheng's face, and he walked out with a cane.
When the children playing not far away saw Xiang Sheng, they immediately rushed over.
"Are you the sister that Uncle Tuo brought back?"
