Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 166 Be naked face to face in the dark

“Oh, they are coming!” Bai Yangbai opened his eyes widely and exclaimed, “Let’s go! Otherwise, we will not be able to look on their troubles with indifference! And neither of you can be naked in the dark or express feelings to each other! I see Seventh Childe has been ready, ho-ho!”

Hearing it, He Danggui used kung fu called “Shaolin Long Zhua Shou” angrily and directly pinched Bai Yangbai’s neck. Bah, he was known as the sage who could summon wind and rain, or “the Dragon King on the earth”. Actually, he was so disrespectful of himself and was full of nasty ideas.

But Meng Xuan suddenly realized that Bai Yangbai was the most honorable and lovable Taoist priest in the world. Meng Xuan had seen that Xiaoyi looked for Bai Yangbai all the time and could always find ways to let him appear, no matter how Bai Yangbai hid. And she thought of Bai Yangbai first after the accident happened, which made Meng Xuan be so jealous that he secretly thought of Bai Yangbai as his enemy. But now, it seemed that Bai Yangbai really didn’t like her at all. Ho-ho, what a saint he was. Such a beauty often went to his room to take a bath, but he was not tempted...

Suddenly, Meng Xuan was angry. Then he pinched Bai Yangbai’s shoulder by “Shaolin Long Zhua Shou” and asked Bai Yangbai angrily, “Bai Yangbai! Why did Xiaoyi come so often to your room to take a bath? And once she stayed in your room for the night. What did you do to her?”

Bai Yangbai immediately cried in pain. Whoops, He Danggui didn’t really want to scratch him, but Meng Xuan did. Bai Yangbai felt as if 1 or 3 bones of his shoulder had been crumbed off. Whine. It was an obvious revenge. He had taught the Zhou Yi Can Tong Qi loudly three years ago and often disturbed Meng Xuan’s sleep. Now, Meng Xuan was looking for an opportunity to revenge!

He Danggui also vaguely heard a sound of crack, and it seemed to come out of Bai Yangbai’s body. So, she turned hastily to step Meng Xuan’s feet and said angrily, “Meng Xuan, stop. Don’t hurt him. Just ask him what you want. Why did you hit him!”

“You hit first.” Two men said in their hearts at the same time.

At this moment, they saw a group of people headed by President Bai coming here. They had no time to tangle. Meng Xuan took He Danggui’s hand and ran to the bamboo grove, but He Danggui shook off his hand. Meanwhile, He Danggui grabbed Bai Yangbai’s collar and ran to the bamboo grove, but Bai Yangbai snatched his collar and ran to the bamboo grove with his injured shoulder. Finally, they hid in the bamboo grove where the moon didn’t shine before they were discovered.

As they came in, He Danggui wanted to look Bai Yangbai’s wound. She took off his tattered robe, one of whose sleeves was missing, as she asked anxiously, “Are you OK, geezer? How many bones are broken? Does it hurt? Where? Let me see.”

Bai Yangbai tried to protect his collar and politely refused He Danggui, “Thanks, I’m fine. You undress the man behind you. He likes it best!”

He Danggui didn’t believe, “I heard your bones were broken. How could it not be hurt? Don’t be afraid. Take off your clothes and let me have a look, OK?” She thought Bai Yangbai was afraid that Meng Xuan would see his “real chest”, which was fair-complexioned and elastic, instead of a middle-aged man’s skin. So, she commanded Meng Xuan, “I’m hungry. You go to the canteen and fetch me 2 buns.”

Meng Xuan didn’t be fooled. He folded his arms around his chest and stared at her. He condescendingly said, “Let’s go together if you are hungry. I’m not going anywhere. You can treat him if you want, but I will be here.” He also felt sorry that he had broken Bai Yangbai’s bones. After all, Bai Yangbai had just put in a good word for him. But Meng Xuan didn’t expect that the Taoist Sage, Bai Yangbai, was so vulnerable that he only used less than 10 percent internal force to hurt Bai Yangbai badly. He was almost as fragile as a pottery figurine. Bai Yangbai had been in Jianghu for many years. How could he still be alive?

Meng Xuan wouldn’t listen to He Danggui, so He Danggui only had to persuade Bai Yangbai to take off his clothes. Bai Yangbai knew he could not deceive her, so he had to tell the truth, “Girl, I’m really fine. The shoulder pads I just broken were made of clay. Alas, I want to get an apology from Meng Xuan and ask him to be respectful to me in the future. But I failed.”

Meng Xuan suddenly understood. He felt hard when he had touched Bai Yangbai’s body. He thought that Bai Yangbai had a more fragile but indestructible body. It turned out to be clay. Meng Xuan smiled and said, “If you tell the reason why ‘my wife’ went to your house to take a bath and the process in detail, I will make a solemn apology to you and be very respectful to you when we meet again.”

Meng Xuan was no longer like a free and easy horse, but now he looked like a stubborn ox with horns. He was so stubborn, which displeased He Danggui.

She said gravely, “Childe Meng, first of all, I don’t know you very well, and we don’t have any promise of marriage. I’m not worthy of being your wife, please know this common sense before you speak–I’m not your possession, and I have my own privacy. Second, if you don’t believe me at all, my words and actions will always be in doubt in your eyes, and they are always not correct behaviors, which are bad for reputation and integrity. I don’t think it is necessary to explain, and I don’t want everyone to understand my character temperament. Go and find your perfect wife. Don’t pester me all the time.”

After a short silence, Meng Xuan said, “Just I believe all of you, Xiaoyi, I ask you. Do you love me a little?” He thought a while, then added, “Love between men and women.”

After a short silence, He Danggui gritted her teeth and confessed to him, “Meng Xuan, I’m glad to have a friend like you, and I am lucky enough, too. Although I saved you once, I still owe you more when I think carefully. So, I don’t want to cheat you anymore.” As she said, she returned the dagger to Meng Xuan and sincerely said, “In fact, I have no feelings for you, and I can’t receive your dagger. Please take it back, or I’ll throw it on the ground.”

Meng Xuan wouldn’t take back the dagger, nor would he believe her. He smiled awkwardly and then said, “We are not familiar with each other, aren’t we? What about those we had in the bamboo grove? What about those we had in your room 3 years ago?” He demanded seriously, glancing at Bai Yangbai before she could answer, “I will whisper to her, Taoist priest, please go to the bamboo grove.”

Bai Yangbai didn’t move. He turned to He Danggui and said bitterly, “Whoops, the shoulder is too painful to move. Although the bones don’t break, I guess the wound are purple. I must rest for half a year to heal. Meng Xuan hurt me so badly for one thing that you insisted on taking your clothes off in my house, and the more I refused, the more you took off. And finally, you forced me to boil bath water. You should be responsible for me, an ordinary Taoist Sage, who works on boiling the bath water. And now, I am a seriously injured man!” Was Meng Xuan kidding him? He loved to hear whispers of others. Even if his shoulder hurt, he would like to see through the play.

Meng Xuan wanted to believe Xiaoyi very much, but he hesitated and finally asked, “Is that true? Are you really naked in front of Bai Yangbai?”

“Ah–” There was Qian Shuixian’s cry from the river bank, “Sister, what’s wrong with you? How could this be!”

He Danggui was attracted. Then she came back to earth and replied, “I didn’t.”

All 3 people in the bamboo grove had internal force. They all could improve the eyes, ears, mouth, nose and other senses of the 6-vision range. Even Bai Yangbai, the weakest among 3 people, could hear the conversations from hundreds zhang away by just using energy on his ears. And as long as he looked at the distance, the expression of those people seemed to be in front of him.

Now, they heard the Yi Tong’s voice, “My childe said, the only way he can do is to keep the poison in Miss Qian’s right hand but not get rid of it all. After cutting off Miss Qian’s right hand, she can live more than 20 years. He also said his silver needles, um, poking the acupoint could only last a short time. If you want to save Miss Qian, hurry up.” Everything Miss He said had been transferred to his childe as his childe had ordered.

Meng Xuan asked, “Now, it’s too late to save her. Shall we stop them from cutting hand? Leave her an intact body.”

“Anyway, she is going to die, whatever. Even if they really cut off, we can sew it with a needle and thread when they send out obituary. Aren’t you whispering? Mind your own business.” Bai Yangbai looked very bad and badly said, “Meng Xuan, He Danggui had lied to you. She took all her clothes off in my house that made me be very embarrassed. Ah, now, speaking of which, I am still very shy. One by one took off in front of my eyes.”

He Danggui nodded and concluded, “Let’s wait and see. If they really want to cut off her hand, we will do something else. Qian Mudan is really going to die unless the man who made the venomous insect is found and let him solve. The book says this venomous insect poison takes 3 times attacks to kill people, and occurs at month intervals. If this is the third time, she will die tonight. It’s useless to do anything. Unfortunately, I wasn’t careful enough to read, or I can distinguish how many times it happened. It is when you are using what you have learned from books that you wish you had read more books than you have.”

“Really?” Meng Xuan asked.

He Danggui wondered, “Of course, I have a photographic memory for reading. I can recite book that I read a few years ago. At that time, I didn’t believe there were ‘venomous insects’ in the world, so I thought the book was alarmist. Just few pages, I stopped reading.”

Bai Yangbai asked curiously, “Girl, where did you find such a book? I have read all books, including the pornographic books, which are from the night market in the capital, and the thick black books in the largest library of Central Secretariat, but I’ve never seen any books like what you said.”

He Danggui raised her eyebrows, “Haven’t you read that book? How can you recognize it as a venomous insect at a glance?” This book was in big study of the mansion. In those years, Bai Yangbai had chosen this book for her.

Bai Yangbai said persuasively, “Little girl, when you grow up, you will understand that it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books. When you read at a certain age, you will want to throw it, go out on the streets and visit ordinary people to experience life. When I was in Jianghu in those days, I saw that someone was attacked by a venomous insect. Tut, that was terrible, so I’m sure I know. Jianghu, is a big book that broadens your horizon. Only when you go in, you will get the feeling. Anyway, you have read that book, why can’t you diagnose it half of the day? Are your skills down, ‘the First Master’? And where did you learn the medical skills? I’ve been curious for a long time.”

“There is always someone who is better than us. There is no real the first in the world. Besides, ‘the First Master’ is not an Immortal.” He Danggui explained, “In order to expand my knowledge, I set a goal of ‘reading hundreds of books a day’. Then I forced myself to remember in those years.” In fact, the fast reading and shorthand methods were taught by you. He Danggui thought. Then she said, “I’m content with superficial understanding, instead of comprehensive understanding. So, although I know a lot, I’m not as flexible as you who are ignorant and incompetent when thinking of the problem. You have been in Jianghu. I’m so ashamed. Thus, I have a matter to bother you. Could you give me some advice?”

“Good attitude.” Bai Yangbai smiled and said, “But you are just a little girl, why do you always talk like me, ‘in those years’? Young but full of ideas. What’s up? Go ahead.”

He Danggui said cautiously, “Well, I have a friend who offended a great man. She was afraid that the man will propose a marriage to her...”

“Xiaoyi, is what Bai Yangbai said true?” Meng Xuan could not help interrupting the conversation between them. He wanted to ask the matter of bath directly, “Why did you go to his house to bathe? How many times? Have you ever undressed in front of him? Did you let him see your body? I’m sorry. I believe you, but I really want to know this thing clearly. You said no, but he said yes. I really want to trust you, but why would you, a lady, take the initiative to go to another man’s house to bathe? I saw these situations many times 3 years ago. Bai Yangbai kept avoiding you, and you kept trying to find him. He locked the door and you went in through the window. You liked him 3 years ago, right?”

He Danggui was amused and angry. Then she signed, “Seventh Childe, you watched carefully. But to tell the truth, you still don’t believe me, right? As I said just now, it doesn’t matter to me whether you believe it or not. And it’s true that he hasn’t seen. I’m not lying, but the old liar is lying.”

Bai Yangbai touched his nose guiltily and looked at Meng Xuan earnestly. He apologized, “I’m sorry. Because my shoulder hurt, which affects my memory sequence. I accidentally transferred what happened in my dream to reality. Ho-ho.”

“Ah–” Qian Shuixian’s cries came again from the bank of river, “Don’t cut my sister! Father, stop Guard Zhan quickly. Don’t let him cut my sister’s hand!”

Mr. Bao said helplessly, “Qian Shuixian, didn’t you agree to cut your sister’s arm afternoon? And you said to try as long as there was hope. Now only cutting one hand will let your sister live more than 20 years, why not?”

Headed by President Bai and Mr. Zheng, the teachers nodded in agreement. They said it worth cutting the hand. Song Qiao, Wen Han and other male students gently persuaded Qian Shuixian. They said her sister looked so miserable that they should cut off the hand quickly, and cutting the hand was right for her sister. Wu Yuying and Niu Wenbao began to doubt her caprice. They could not help satirizing her. They said whether she had ulterior motives, so she deliberately tried to stop her sister’s chance of survival. Childe Meng said, much later, and her sister had dead.

The ladies’ words let Qian Shuixian be pale and speechless, so she only could cry quietly. Finally, Guard Zhan with the guard’s special sword asked gruffly whether cut or not. He had other official business, so he couldn’t stay here all the time.

Mr. Bao looked at Qian Shuixian’s father anxiously, who named Qian Xi and was the parvenu Liao Qing’er said before. Mr. Bao said, “It’s up to you, Mr. Qian. Our academy is in favor of cutting off the hand totally.”
