Chapter 161: Stealing a Chicken but Losing the Rice
Zhang Yi's feelings were completely different from hers. He was originally exhausted and there was no movement in his dantian.
But at this moment, the cultivation that originally belonged to him was slowly returning to his body through the back of his hand.
His heart was extremely excited, and he even began to activate the cultivation that had returned to him.
"If you want the rest back, don't move."
Qing Yanrou looked at his impatient expression and spoke from the side.
When Zhao Yi heard her say that, he quickly stopped moving, sat up straight and stared at Yamaguchi Riko's hand on the back of his hand without blinking.
The whole process lasted for more than half an hour. At the end, Yamaguchi Riko was sweating profusely and extremely weak. Without Qing Yanrou's control, she fell to the ground.
Zhao Yize was completely different. His face was flushed and he looked energetic. He realized that his cultivation had completely returned to his body, and he stood up from his chair excitedly.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qing."
He first circulated the mysterious power in his body and threw a punch without any hindrance. He quickly thanked Qing Yanrou.
"Are you all back?"
“I’m back, I’m back!”
At this moment, Zhao Yi no longer looked depressed. He looked so happy that those who didn't know him well might think that he was learning to practice for the first time.
"Master Mingyi, Taoist Master Jieyun, we are late."
The people in the wooden house heard the noise and went out, and found that the Taoist priests who came on a special plane had arrived.
Mingyi didn't say anything, just waved his hand to them and signaled them to take away Takuma Uemoto and Shuugo who were sitting on the snow.
At this moment, he was recalling the appearance of the dragon vein he had just seen below. He never expected that he would actually see a real dragon in his lifetime.
When Qing Yanrou went to help Zhao Yi, Taoist Mingyi was a little anxious as he saw that the dragon vein was motionless.
Although Qing Yanrou said it was fine, he still couldn't stop worrying, so he began to tentatively use his spiritual sense to check the condition of the dragon vein.
But he encountered a formation below, which was slightly damaged, but still running.
At this time, the newly born dragon vein was sitting in the formation with its eyes closed and practicing.
This was the first time that Taoist Mingyi saw a dragon. He couldn't help but stay there for a while. The dragon vein noticed his gaze and slowly opened its eyes.
"Who are you?"
Although the voice of the dragon vein is a little childish, it also contains the majesty of a real dragon.
It is no longer the newborn dragon vein that was at the mercy of others. In recent months, it has been practicing hard, and its body has become larger and larger. Several times, it wanted to use its body to turn over, but it held back.
Because the entire Province C is related to it. If it turns over, the entire Province C will be shaken by an earthquake.
It had no choice but to shrink its body, and finally had fun in the formation that Qing Yanrou left for it.
But it just felt the threat from the ground. The threat was gradually approaching, and even the formation was shaking.
This made it feel a little uneasy.
Fortunately, the energy disappeared in the end, but today's experience also made it clearly realize that it is still very weak and must concentrate on practicing.
It had just focused for a short while when another spiritual consciousness came down from outside.
Although he did not have the power that could threaten him, Longmai was still very cautious.
"I'm Mingyi from Baiyun Temple. I just came down to see if you were injured."
This is a century-old dragon vein, and it concerns the entire Province C, so Mingyi unconsciously used the honorific.
"I'm fine, go up."
As soon as he finished speaking, Taoist Mingyi's consciousness had already returned to his body on the snow.
At this time, he saw Qing Yanrou coming out, and thought of the formation below, thinking that it was her work.
"Fellow Daoist Qing, did you set up the formation below in advance?"
Although he had the answer in his heart, he still wanted to get a positive answer from her.
"Well, at first I just thought it was too weak and that adding an extra layer of protection would be more appropriate. I didn't expect it to be so useful."
She hadn't thought too much about it when she set up the formation, but she hadn't expected it to be of such great use.
"Since the other Taoist priests are here, let's take them back."
"The formation below is damaged. Do you need to repair it?"
Ming couldn't help but ask when he saw her leaving like this.
"No, its training will improve quickly. It will learn to repair itself."
It is a dragon after all, and it cannot always hide under protection, as that would slow its growth.
…
The master of Qingyun Temple originally wanted to invite them to Qingyun Temple for a rest, but in order to hand over the three people from Country R to the special department as soon as possible, they refused to fly back to Beijing on the special plane again.
When they arrived at Beijing Airport, people from the special department were already waiting for them there.
"Tingbai, Yanrou."
When Gu Yuan saw them, he first greeted Taoist Master Mingyi, and asked his team members to take Yamamoto Takuma and the others over, while he went to Qing Yanrou and the others.
"Uncle Gu." The two of them called him in unison.
"Let's talk about it some other time."
Gu Yuan said this to Qing Yanrou, then turned around and followed the team members to take the people from Country R away.
"What does he want to talk about?"
Chu Tingbai looked at Qing Yanrou with some confusion. In his impression, Gu Yuan didn't seem to have much interaction with his girlfriend.
"Maybe it has something to do with my mother."
She remembered the way Gu Yuan looked at her before, as if he was looking at another person through her.
She also wanted to hear about her mother from different people.
——
They handed the people over to special departments, and Country R's attempt to steal the dragon veins was no longer within their management scope. The rest could be left to the country.
However, this incident exposed many problems. The Dragon Vein incident happened not long ago, but that group of people decided to come to China for the competition in April.
Then they must have received the news earlier and used this time to set up such a plan.
Although they all knew that this could not be a conspiracy of just these three people, they could not provide any evidence to prove that it was a conspiracy of the Yin-Yang Taoist priests or even the evil ambitions of Country R.
There was no clear evidence, but they didn't want to suffer the loss, so they directly put the Yin-Yang Taoist people on the blacklist.
Although they were only blacklisted, which seemed to have little impact on them, this time not only did they fail to steal the dragon vein, they even lost three people, which made them cry.
Among these three people, one is an elder of Onmyoji, and one is one of the strongest of their new generation. Among them, Yamaguchi Riko's martial arts is so special that it is considered a treasure in Country R.
But this time they all failed here, and they couldn't come to rescue them. This is a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.
Although this matter seems to be over, it has also made the people of Xuanmen alert to the fact that external forces are eyeing them covetously, and it is urgent for them to train a new generation of Xuanmen heirs.
