From the Red Mansion, you can travel through the world of martial arts

Chapter 172 Eat Light Food
Figures flashed in the darkness, and an old figure suddenly stood at the entrance of the alley.

Jia Wei looked at the bright red eunuch robe on him, his eyes slightly fixed. The old servant that Lu Wenzhao mentioned was actually an old eunuch in the palace.

Jia Wei frowned. Now that he had been discovered while sneaking into the Prince's Mansion, things would not go as smoothly as he had imagined.

This old eunuch must be killed, otherwise he will go back and inform Prince Ningjing.

But once the old priest in the palace dies, Prince Ningjing will certainly become suspicious, and it is unknown how the situation will develop.

"Why are you following me, sir?" Jia Wei walked over.

When I got a little closer, I could see the old eunuch's face clearly. He was a little hunchbacked, his eyes were cloudy, his white eyebrows were drooping, and he had an old look on his face with a faint smile that looked a little kind.

The old eunuch smiled slowly and said, "I just want to appreciate the appearance of an old friend. Don't worry, sir, I have no ill intentions."

Jia Wei thought about it for a moment. The phrase "the appearance of an old friend" conveyed a lot of information. It seemed that the other party knew his identity.

This eunuch served in the palace. Considering his age, he must have met Jia Wei's biological father.

As for "no malicious intent", Jia Wei certainly didn't believe it.

The old eunuch followed him out of the Prince's Mansion. Who knows when the old eunuch discovered him?
Was it when he just entered the mansion, or when he eavesdropped on Prince Ningjing's conspiracy, or when he peeped at the princess taking a bath?
Maybe the old eunuch came just to silence him.

Jia Wei continued to approach and said, "I have been in the capital for half a year, but this is the first time I have met a master like you... I wonder who taught you martial arts? With such martial arts skills, why don't you enter the palace, but waste your time in a small prince's mansion?"

The old eunuch folded his sleeves in front of him, bowed slightly and said:

"The capital used to be full of experts, but in recent decades, Emperor Taizong disliked chivalrous warriors, so some of them died or fled, and the capital became a forbidden place for martial arts...

"I don't have any sect, I just learned a few moves from the people in the palace a few years ago, and practiced blindly for decades with an unknown book. Because I did the wrong job, I was driven out of the palace by my master, and I was taken in by the palace."

The old eunuch was extremely respectful and answered all his questions one by one, so Jia Wei did not suddenly attack him while he was talking.

Jia Wei nodded: "In that case, please take action, sir."

After saying that, he threw a punch forward, hitting the old eunuch in the face.

The old eunuch still looked calm and composed, and waved his hand to block the attack - but the moment the two men touched hands, the old eunuch's face suddenly darkened, and his smile disappeared, as if he was shocked by Jia Wei's strength.

Jia Wei was also a little surprised. He felt that the old eunuch had extremely strong internal strength. Even if he was not as strong as him, he was still stronger than the two Xuanming Elders, who were top martial arts masters.

Jia Wei has mastered the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing" and his palm strikes are mysterious, but the old eunuch's "one move and a half" should not be underestimated. After more than ten moves, the two are still evenly matched and neither can gain the upper hand.

After the blow separated them, Jia Wei immediately stood up, slightly bent his left leg, drew a circle with his right palm, and pushed it out horizontally. This was exactly the "Kang Long You Hui" move among the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

The old eunuch only felt a breeze blowing on his face, the wind was so strong that it made him breathless, and he knew how fierce Jia Wei's move was. But he smiled and pushed forward with both palms.

When the two men faced each other with their palms, their bodies shook. Jia Wei added another palm strike, and his internal force surged forward like a surging wave.

The old eunuch also rushed forward. The stronger Jia Wei's palm power was, the stronger his counterattack force became, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.

The two separated again. Jia Wei took a deep breath and immediately understood the old eunuch's intentions.

The internal strength cultivated by the old eunuch, as well as his every move, had some shadows of the "Bixie Sword Manual". Thinking of his identity as a palace servant, Jia Wei had a guess.

Could it be that the nameless book he mentioned is the "Sunflower Manual"?
Jia Wei thought that if the old eunuch had mastered this magical skill, it would not be surprising that he could fight with him.

The old eunuch put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Young Master, your martial arts are really amazing. I am no match for you. But everything I said is true. I have no ill intentions and will not tell anyone about what happened tonight. Please let me live."

Jia Wei thought about it for a while. He thought it would not be easy to kill the old eunuch. Even a rabbit will bite when it is angry. If the old eunuch has some hidden cards at such an old age, he may not end up well...

If there was a commotion and the patrol soldiers came, everyone would know. Then he said with a smile: "Look at what you said, we have no grudges against each other, why should I kill you? I just saw that you are very skilled in martial arts, and I wanted to learn from you."

At present, Jia Wei has a good impression of this old eunuch. Even if he is a pervert, he will have a better chance of winning in the future when he uses the Sword of Exorcism with the Sword of the Heavenly Sword in his hand.

Jia Wei continued, "Your master is the Prince of Ningjing, and you didn't tell him about what happened tonight?"

The old eunuch shook his head and said, "My master is Prince Yi Zhong." He bowed and said, "My lord, we will meet again later."

Suddenly the old eunuch's figure disappeared in the dark street. Jia Wei pondered for a moment, too lazy to think about it, and went straight back to the Bo's Mansion.

But he was extremely careful along the way, observing the movements around him to make sure that he was not being followed...

Inside the room, Zhou Zhiruo, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened her eyes. She immediately rolled off the bed, and when she stood up, she had already drawn half of the Sword of the Heavenly Sword.

"it's me."

Jia Wei pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand and pushed the sword into the sheath.

I didn't expect Zhou Zhiruo to be so alert. She wasn't completely at ease in this environment.

"Uncle?"

Jia Wei took the Yitian sword from her hand and threw it onto the table in the distance, "Go light the lamp."

After that, he began to take off his clothes and sat on the bed again.

Zhou Zhiruo was stunned, then went to light the oil lamp, and came over to help Jia Wei take off his clothes.

Under the light, Jia Wei could see her slightly red face and her loose, fluffy hair.

"Sorry to bother you so late."

Zhou Zhiruo shook her head and said nothing.

Jia Wei touched her smooth face and thought that although Zhou Zhiruo was a thoughtful person, her well-behaved appearance with lowered brows was really to his liking.

Simply put, it means knowing the times.

She picked up Jia Wei's black robe, turned around and hung it on the rack. Jia Wei looked at her graceful back and thought of the snow-white figure he saw in Ningjing County Prince's Mansion.

And that pink chrysanthemum...

When Zhou Zhiruo came over, Jia Wei hugged her, and after a while of affectionateness, they both fell on the couch again.

Jia Wei took off the hairpin on his head and handed it to him: "Put your hair up."

Zhou Zhiruo did as she was told and tied her hair into a loose bun.

When she put her hands behind her head, she straightened her body subconsciously, making the snow look even bigger.

Afterwards, Jia Wei kissed the white skin on the back of her neck.

"Eat light food these days, and don't eat spicy food, okay?"

"OK……"

Although Zhou Zhiruo didn't know the reason, she couldn't be distracted and think too much during this process, so she could only agree.
