Chapter 22 23. Separation, Snake Blood
Zhongdu was the most powerful city in the Kingdom of Jin. The city wall was about four feet high, but the south gate seemed extremely empty at this time. Only a few soldiers were carrying out Wanyan Honglie's order to open the gate.

As soon as he arrived outside the city, Wanyan Honglie asked Yang Chen, "Can you let me go now?"

Although his life was in the opponent's hands, he still looked domineering.

Yang Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "This place is too close to the city gate. If the prince escapes and sends someone to chase after him, we won't be able to run away from those cavalry. Please wait for the prince to walk a few more steps with me!"

Wanyan Honglie had no choice but to follow Yang Chen for another five miles.
Yang Chen looked back and saw that the tall city walls of Zhongdu had also become blurred, and there was no sign of troops being dispatched. Only Yang Kang followed behind, and then stopped.

He motioned for the others to go on, then turned his head to Wanyan Honglie and said, "We are mediocre people, and we have to ask Prince Zhao to go out of the city ten miles to see us off, we are really terrified!"

Wanyan Honglie snorted coldly, "Can I go?"

Yang Chen shrugged, "Naturally, my lord, please."

Wanyan Honglie flicked his sleeves and was about to leave, but Yang Kang in front hurried over to support him.At this time Wanyan Honglie had already walked for a long time, and was a little tired, so he reached out and grabbed Yang Kang's arm.

The two were about to go back together, when Yang Chen suddenly said, "Yang Kang, no, your name is Wanyan Kang now. Do you know that you are not Wanyan Honglie's biological son, you want to abandon your biological parents and recognize a golden man as your own?" Father?"

Yang Kang's eyes wandered, his mind was full of thoughts, in terms of feelings, he was naturally closest to his mother and concubine Bao Xiruo, followed by his father Wanyan Honglie.

For the past 18 years, Wanyan Honglie has treated Yang Kang like his own son, caring for everything, and Yang Kang has never been able to realize that he is not Wanyan Honglie's biological son.

If he was with his mother, he would have to leave behind the wealth and honor of King Zhao's Mansion and live an ordinary life with a commoner.If you follow the father, you have to abandon your mother, which is undoubtedly a dilemma.

At this moment, Yang Kang suddenly felt his arm tighten, and when he looked over, he realized that it was his father who was holding his hand and clenched it unconsciously.

"Yes, for more than ten years, my father has treated our mother and son with deep affection, and I am the only child under my knees. If I leave him, won't it make him miserable in his later years?"

In this way, Yang Kang successfully persuaded himself, he stretched out his hand to grab Wanyan Honglie's palm, and said, "Father, let's go back."

There was no abnormality on Wanyan Honglie's face at this time, but Yang Kang could feel that his heart was not so peaceful.

Seeing that Yang Kang had made his own choice, Yang Chen left directly, chasing after the others.As for the Enyou between Wanyan Honglie and Guo Yang's family, let's wait for Guo Jing to settle it later!

……

Yang Chen quickly caught up with the large team of more than a dozen people, and then said to everyone: "In order to prevent them from chasing people, we need to speed up and stay away from Zhongdu."

Bao Xiruo asked worriedly, "Isn't Kang'er here?"

Yang Chen replied: "No, he went back with Wanyan Honglie."

Qiu Chuji scolded angrily when he heard the words: "This bastard will definitely not be able to let go of the glory and wealth of the Kingdom of Jin."

Bao Xiruo wiped away tears, "It's all my fault. I haven't told Kang'er about his life experience, so he doesn't want to recognize you."

Yang Tiexin immediately comforted, "How could you be blamed? Back then when you were in the palace, if you had told Kang Erming, what would King Jin think of you mother and son?"

Qiu Chuji said to Yang Tiexin: "Brother Yang, I am sorry for you, if I had taken their mother and child away from the palace earlier, what happened today would not have happened."

Yang Tiexin waved his hands again and again, "Qiu Daoist is willing to find relatives for me, I am already very grateful, how dare you blame me?"

Hearing Yang Tiexin's words, Qiu Chuji heaved a long sigh, "Hey, who would have thought that such a thing would happen."

Beside them, the Jiangnan Seven Monsters were talking to Guo Jing about what had happened in the past few days, and asked Guo Jing how his affairs were going.

Guo Jing answered truthfully, and Zhu Cong said: "Wanyan Honglie has recruited many masters, it may not be easy for you to kill him, or you should think about it later!"

Although Guo Jing was very stubborn, he was still able to calmly analyze the problem at such a time. Under Zhu Cong's persuasion, Guo Jing decided to let go of Genghis Khan's order first, and go to find his enemy first and avenge his father.

On the other side, Huang Rong stuffed a bamboo basket into Yang Chen's hands full of resentment, "I carry this bamboo basket with me everywhere I go, the snake inside is dead."

"Thank you, Rong'er!" Yang Chen quickly took the bamboo basket and said with a smile.

Huang Rong raised her head, "Hmph, you're smart."

Yang Chen asked again: "But Rong'er, do you know what's inside?"

Huang Rong wrinkled her nose, full of pride, "Hmph, of course I know."

"Oh, you know?"

Huang Rong smiled even wider, and took out a thin booklet from her pocket, "Of course, what do you think it is?"

"what?"

Huang Rong approached Yang Chen and said in a low voice, "Of course it's something to introduce this big snake. This big snake is a medicinal snake carefully cultivated by Liang Ziweng for 20 years. After eating its blood, it has the effect of enhancing one's power. It's unexpected, isn't it?" !"

Last night, Huang Rong flipped through the brochure she took from Liang Ziweng's room in her spare time, and only then did she know the effect of this vermilion viper, so she used it to show off to Yang Chen today.

Yang Chen pretended to be surprised, and said, "It's so powerful, you should eat it, Rong'er!"

Huang Rong asked back, "Why are you flattering me so much? What's the purpose?"

Yang Chen smiled wryly, "What purpose can I have? Besides, didn't you bring this snake here? In addition, you discovered the effect yourself."

"Don't you want to drink?" Huang Rong asked.

Yang Chen shook his head, "I don't need it, after all my martial arts are already very high."

Huang Rong said dissatisfiedly, "How can we do that? We found this snake together, so we should share it equally."

Yang Chen thought for a while, and then said: "Then...how about you teach me lightness kung fu, even if I transfer the share I deserve to you, how about it?"

"Qinggong? Yes, let's do it like this."

……

From the morning to the afternoon, several people had completely left Zhongdu City, and no one had caught up. It seemed that Wanyan Honglie gave up the pursuit.

Yang Chen walked up to Yang Tiexin and asked, "Uncle, what are your plans for the future?"

Yang Tiexin replied: "I plan to take your aunt back to Lin'an Niujia Village to live a normal life, but before that, I have to find the enemy who framed me and my brother-in-law back then."

"That's it!" Yang Chen nodded.

Yang Tiexin saw that Yang Chen didn't seem to be planning to be with him, so he asked, "Chen'er, what's the matter with you?"

Yang Chen replied: "There are some things. It will be my father's memorial day soon, and I want to go back to worship. But uncle, you are going to Lin'an, and I am going to Xiangyang. I guess we will part ways after a few days."

"Ah! Is elder brother's memorial day coming soon?" Yang Tiexin said with some regret, "It's a pity that I have to find my old enemy, otherwise I must go to Xiangyang to pay homage to elder brother."

This time, he was going back to Lin'an with Guo Jing and the Seven Monsters of the South of the Yangtze River. Naturally, it was inconvenient for him to detour to Xiangyang, so he could only temporarily separate from Yang Chen.

After walking for a few days since Zhongdu left, Qiu Chuji and Ma Yu left the team. The Quanzhen Sect had important matters to deal with, so the three had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving, the Seven Devils of Jiangnan said to Qiu Chuji, "Daoist Qiu, you and the seven of us made a contract in Jiaxing Zuixianlou 18 years ago. Should we continue now?"

Qiu Chuji thought for a moment, and then replied: "My villain's character is bad, and he is absolutely inferior to the sages. For those of us who learn martial arts, our morals and mind skills are the first, and martial arts are the last. The poor are so shameless to accept disciples." , the appointment of the martial arts competition at the Zuixian Tower in Jiaxing has come to an end today, and the poor are willing to bow down, and they should be rumored in the world, and when it comes to Qiu Chuji's defeat at the hands of the Jiangnan Seven Heroes, he is completely convinced."

Hearing what he said, the six monsters in the south of the Yangtze River were very proud, and felt that after spending 18 years in the desert, they finally had a satisfactory result.

Ke Zhen'e then said: "Qiu Taoist priest puts more emphasis on virtue than martial arts, and the seven of us admire him from the bottom of our hearts."

As soon as he said this, the six monsters suddenly thought of Zhang Asheng who died in the desert, and couldn't help feeling sad. It's a pity that he couldn't hear Qiu Chuji's words of conceding defeat with his own ears.

Qiu Chuji said to everyone, "Farewell!"

At this time, the six monsters came back to their senses, cupped their hands and said, "Good job, Taoist priests!"

A few days after the three of Qiu Chuji left, it was time for Yang Chen and Huang Rong to leave.

Reluctantly holding Yang Chen's hand, Yang Tiexin said, "After you finish worshiping, you can come to An to find me. I should settle down in Niujia Village."

Yang Chen nodded, and replied: "I will definitely go." After speaking, he carried the bamboo basket and left with Huang Rong.

Watching Yang Chen's uncle and nephew bid farewell, Han Baoju suddenly asked, "Little Brother Yang, what is he carrying in this bamboo basket?"

Little Brother Yang in Han Baoju's mouth naturally refers to Yang Chen, and Yang Tiexin is Brother Yang, the relationship is quite messy anyway.

Zhu Cong said, "It looks like a snake! I saw that little girl feed it with herbs before."

Han Baoju curled his lips, "What kind of snake grows from eating medicinal materials?"

Ke Zhen'e scolded, "What do you care what people feed?"

"Hey, what big brother said is true. But this little brother Yang is really good at martial arts, he seems to be only two years older than Jinger!"

Guo Jing hurried forward to admit his mistake, "It's my disciple who is stupid and let the masters down."

Han Xiaoying comforted Guo Jing, "Don't listen to what your third master said, but talk about you, he may not be able to beat little brother Yang after decades of practice!"

Han Baoju smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Seventh sister, save me some face in front of Jinger."

Han Baoju and Han Xiaoying are not only sworn brothers and sisters, but also actual cousins, so their relationship is considered the best among the seven monsters.

……

After Yang Chen and his party left Guo Jing and his party, they walked towards Xiangyang for a few days.

During this period, Huang Rong kept feeding the big snake with various medicinal materials according to the records in the brochure, and finally the time was ripe to kill the snake to get its blood.

The two came to a town and found an inn, Huang Rong borrowed the kitchen from the inn.

Yang Chen and Huang Rong stood in front of the bamboo basket with a knife, knocked out the big snake, and were about to kill the snake and let the blood out.

Huang Rong suddenly said, "I don't know if the snake blood will have any effect after being boiled?"

Yang Chen frowned, "You mean...don't waste this blood."

Huang Rong smiled, "It's okay, I'll try it first."

After speaking, he changed to a smaller knife and cut a hole in the big snake's body, and blood flowed out from the wound.The smell of fresh blood is not strong, but has a smell of medicine instead.

Huang Rong took the snake blood in a small bowl, took out half of the bowl, added water and salt, and then drank the half bowl.

Soon, she felt hot all over her body, as if standing by a fire, but she acted as usual.

So she asked Yang Chen, "I haven't changed much, have I?"

Yang Chen didn't answer, just kept laughing.

Huang Rong immediately became anxious, thinking that there was something abnormal about her body, "What are you laughing at? I'm asking you something!"

Yang Chen said with a smile: "No, no, there is no change on your body, but your face is particularly red. But it's okay, you still look good."

Although Huang Rong was very happy in her heart, she still deliberately said: "Glib, go boil the water."

Yang Chen immediately boiled a pot of hot water, while Huang Rong closed her eyes and adjusted her breath.Not long after, the blush on Huang Rong's face faded, and Yang Chen's hot water boiled.

Huang Rong opened her eyes, and said happily: "This snake blood really has the effect of increasing one's energy. I'll try the cooked snake blood again."

At this time, the snake blood had condensed into lumps. She divided the snake blood into several pieces, poured them into boiling water, and fished them out again after a while.

She divided Xuewang into two portions, gave one to Yang Chen, and ate the other by herself.

Yang Chen took a sip, the snake blood smelled like medicine, pungent and bitter, very unpalatable, but he still swallowed it.

Soon, he felt a surge of heat in his body, and his internal energy also became active, but soon returned to calm.

It seems that this snake blood does have the effect of improving one's skill, but it has little effect for Yang Chen.On the other hand, Huang Rong's face turned red again, obviously the snake blood had played a role.

Yang Chen sat quietly for a while, Huang Rong opened her eyes again, "It works, the effect of boiled snake blood is similar to that of uncooked one."

"Then you have to..." Yang Chen nodded, and was about to speak, but he was pushed out of the kitchen by Huang Rong before he finished speaking.

"You wait outside!" Huang Rong walked back after finishing speaking, and the sound of cutting vegetables was heard in the kitchen.

So Yang Chen sat down at the stone table outside the kitchen, about half an hour passed before Huang Rong came out with a big pot.

Huang Rong put the cauldron on the stone table, lifted the lid, a gust of hot air rose, and the fragrant smell filled Yang Chen's nose.

"Hurry up and eat!" Huang Rong said with a smile.

Yang Chen picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of snake blood from inside and put it in his mouth.

"Not bad, delicious."

The bitterness in the snake blood was completely eliminated, but the spiciness was retained, which reminded Yang Chen of the Maoxuewang he ate in his previous life. Of course, Huang Rong's cooking skills must have benefited a lot.
