Chapter 141 Ate her internal force
Seeing that she became silent again, Meng Xuan hesitated and then explained, “I felt chilly just now. I saw your quilt which looks soft and warm, so I couldn’t control myself… Of course, I could find a bed and quilt next door. But... I just want to seek a company suddenly. Miss He, you will forgive my abruptness of influencing your reputation, won’t you?”
He Danggui felt that it was like her heart being flicked by a feather. The kid’s soul was as lonely as hers. He just wanted to seek a company. Well, they ought to accompany each other. So, she said softly, “I lend you half of quilt, and you lend me your arm to sleep on it. Let’s accompany each other to spend the night.”
Meng Xuan stunned a little while, and then he nodded, “Okay, I’ll give you my leg additionally.” Then, he held this cold girl with his left arm, and he put his left leg on her side, trying to clasp her with left hand on her belly. And his chest was tightly attached her slim back. In his arms, He Danggui refused lazily, “Get off. You are too heavy.”
“Hush, girl, I have something to tell you,” Meng Xuan suddenly whispered in her ear, “Don’t be sacred and don’t talk. Just listen to me. When I played Go with you, I had known you were not an ordinary people. Later, the assassin came, and you rushed forward to save Madam Luo. When I stopped you, I found that you had internal force in your channel, but your internal force was not stable. Sometimes it was strong, while sometimes it was not. I was confused that why a lady had such a strong internal force, but I didn’t talk about it, which was hidden in my heart.”
Before he finished, He Danggui stiffened in his arms. So, he patted her shoulder and comforted her, “Relax, I have no bad intention. Could you please listen to me first, okay? When you returned to your room, I saw your eyes dim, and your nose close and open incessantly, but you had no serious injuries. That’s the reason why I insisted to lift your quilt to check on you.”
Then he picked up her delicate wrist. After he examined a little while, he said, “Just now, I heard your pulse of your heart and your Dantian, when I sniffed your fragrance. You didn’t have internal injury, instead, your Zhenqi have broken forth, which we called “Qizhou”. So, I’m more curious. In fact, as for a general who has practiced kung fu day and night and been through a lot at wars, like me, only when his kung fu raises up to another levels, can his force raise up suddenly. If the situation has happened on a person twice a year, you can say that person is diligent. For me, in the few past years, kung fu was my life, besides eating. Even though, I can only encounter 5 times of “Qizhou”, which added up less than 5 days. But yours, it seems that it occurred at least half a month or more. So, girl, I want to ask you a question. Did you get your Zhenqi from others?”
Hearing that he talked her secret confidently, He Danggui was rattled and asked angrily, “How do you know that I did not practice by myself? Maybe I’m a kung fu genius?”
“Well, in fact, although you are gifted, your talent is less than half of mine. And touch it.” Meng Xuan put his rough fingers on her soft palm to let her feel. He said, “Geniuses and wizards in the world all need to practice. Your hands have no sword scars, while your internal force can compare to a martial arts expert. Isn’t it too strange?”
“What do you want to say?” He Danggui pulled her hands back to quilt and touched the needle case on her wrist. She asked coldly, “There are so many strange things in the world. Why are you curious about my secret?” He Danggui thought that she needn’t to be panic, because she also knew his secrets. And also, she had saved his life. She could use these two things to threaten him!
Meng Xuan smiled and said, “Girl, don’t be so panic. I have said that I have no bad intention. I can tell that you can’t control these streams of Zhenqi which don’t belong to you, and you can’t use your internal energy. So, your Zhenqi are useless. Besides, it is so dangerous that these Zhenqi spread inside of your body every day. So, I’d like to make a deal with you. Could you please lend me your Zhenqi?”
“Lend you?! How? No! It’s not lending money, which just needs to pass it. Of course, I won’t lend you my money!” He Danggui pouted and tried to get rid of his arms. Humph, at first, she thought that he was a playboy who sneaked into young ladies’ bedrooms in the night. Then, she thought he was a lonely boy who sought for mom’s love. She didn’t expect that he was a bean counter who borrowed money from her.
Struggling for a while, He Danggui suddenly found that her body could move but her back was stuck tightly on his chest. His arms and legs locked her between the bed and him. He didn’t allow her to leave!
“What have you done to me?!” He Danggui screamed, “Let me go! I will call someone!”
“I heard that Peng Shi, Peng Jian and these servants had left for a while. And your maid had also run away because of you. Who are you going to call?” Meng Xuan just used one hand and one leg to control her limbs properly. He didn’t hurt her but also made her be unable to escape. He chuckled in her ear, “Pardon me. When I held you, I have already been ‘borrowing’ it. My arts have a trait. Once I stick with an unprepared person, unless I let go, it won’t pause.”
However, He Danggui didn’t believe what he said. She still struggled like a lively shrimp. Meng Xuan wanted to change a posture to control her, but he let her hands off accidentally. Then, her hands specifically attacked his acupoints and vulnerable parts. Consequently, Meng Xuan felt his left eye got punched. Next, he felt his armpit got poked. Fine, it didn’t matter... Then... He felt the most vulnerable part of him got hardly pinched and wrenched!
“Howl!” Meng Xuan howled like a wolf. He forced her to grovel on the bed and then pressed her back strongly. He said unbelievably, “Hey, chick, are you a woman? How could you do that?”
He Danggui regretted. She knew that she put herself in dangerous. But she just struggled as possible as she can, at the same time she yelled, “Xiaoyou, help me! Chan Yi, Huai Hua, help me! Bo He, Dou Jiang, Qian Shi, help me!” Of course, that “yell” was based on her posture. Because her head was embedded on this soft pillow within Juncus. So, her tears and shout were all towards her pillow which was specially made for her by Huai Hua.
Meng Xuan whispered threateningly in her ear, “Miss He, do you really think I won’t kill you? Do you want someone to die for you?” These two questions stopped He Danggui’s restlessness successfully. Then, Meng Xuan put quilt on his shoulder. It also covered her because she was under him.
Meng Xuan looked at the calm girl who just acted like losing her soul. She looked like a silkworm, even if she was like a lioness just now. Not only she was motionless, but also her eyes were gazing at one direction without even blinking. Meng Xuan was touched and asked softly, “If you are obedient, I won’t hurt you or harm you. Okay?”
The girl under him didn’t make any sound. So, Meng Xuan continued, “Girl, actually I could have poked your acupoint and make you be dumb. But if I do that, it could harm your channel. So, I didn’t do that. Thus, it can be seen that I have no bad intention to you. When I just said I wanted to borrow your internal force, you were angry immediately and didn’t allow me to explain. First, I said ‘borrow’, it really means to ‘borrow’. And I will pay you back with ‘interests’; Second, I am actually saving your life. I’ve checked your channel. ‘Zhenqi’ inside of your body was a mess. Besides, your minds were messier than your ‘Zhenqi’. You need to know, the first rule of exercising internal force is ‘peace of mind’. It’s the most important than any excellent methods of internal force. Once you mind is in a mess, you will get Qi Deviation. At that time, even if I don’t tell you, you would know the consequence!”
This time, the girl under him finally raised her head slightly with crystal tears and turned her head to that handsome boy. But she just cared about one thing, “Are you really going to ‘pay me back’?”
Meng Xuan was stunned for a moment. And then he nodded, “Of course, if I lie to you, I will become a dog.”
Hearing that, He Danggui put her head into the pillow with tears dropping. Well, fine, just go ahead. She gave up fighting anymore. He had been absorbing her internal force without her agreement. How could he say that he had no bad intention! Furthermore, he was Earl Baoding’s son and worked for the army throughout the years. If he wanted to repudiate a debt and run away, where could she find him? And he said “If he lied to me, he was a dog”. It was clearly a lie to cheat kids.
Meng Xuan didn’t know her thoughts. He thought he successfully pacified that girl, so he was relieved and said with a smile, “Ho-ho, you only need to be obedient to me. I found your Zhenqi was coming from more than three people. That’s even more dangerous. Although these are the top and purest Zhenqi, each of them doesn’t blend to others, or even repels each other. Some are the icy Zhenqi of the land of snow. Some are blazing Zhenqi of Longhu Sect. I really don’t know your standard! Besides, you didn’t exercise at all after you got them. Instead, you let them run in your channel. We can’t see the harm now, but in a long while, your hands and your feet will be disabled!”
“Don’t scare me. Who knows if you are deceiving me? You want me to give my Zhenqi willingly when I’m sacred!” He Danggui finally couldn’t help but retort, “And even if you want to absorb it, you can ask politely for my permission! After I deliberate it and promise your request, you can do it! You are a general who will spend much time on the battlefield. If you go to war and anything untoward happens to you, who will pay back my Zhenqi?” She had worked hard to accumulate Zhenqi. Although it had not been refined into her own things, she insisted on using silver needles to guide the streams of Zhenqi. It was not that serious.
Meng Xuan was shocked by her roaring, and he said with a smile, “I am an adult, so why do I trick you? I’m twenty years older than you, and my kung fu, mind and intelligence are better than yours. If I want to do something bad to you, I will knock you down and do whatever I want. So that I won’t let you make me almost be sonless... Eh, in a word, I won’t lie to you. I swear to Heaven!”
“What are you talking about?” He Danggui used her elbow to hit back his waist. While Meng Xuan felt hurtful, she took the chance to make a snowball trick and made him under her body. She said coldly, “Stupid boy, you are twenty years older than me, aren’t you? Your mind and intelligence are better than me, aren’t they? I tell you the truth that in my previous life, I could step a thief like you under my feet, not to mention now!”
