Chapter 138
"Father, my daughter is against it!"

"you……"

The dinner was originally harmonious, but now the atmosphere became tense.As one of the parties involved, Jiang Xu is really confused now.

After a brief moment of surprise, Jiang Xu hurriedly opened his mouth to smooth things over: "Uncle Yue, this matter was just a joke back then, but now it has changed after such a long time, I think let's forget about it."

"What uncle-in-law, you should be father-in-law!"

Yue Chunqiu on the side is whoever the pot is, which pot is not opened, and which pot is not opened, and he is still fueling and talking nonsense at critical moments.

But Yue Qishang, who always disagreed with his son's point of view, now agrees surprisingly: "Chunqiu is right, you should be called father-in-law!"

"Uh……"

"Humph!"

Seeing his father and elder brother singing together, Yue Xinci couldn't stay any longer, got up and left the living room in anger.

"This child is really spoiled by the old man!"

"Uncle, I'm going to persuade you."

Wei Tan then also got up, bowed to Yue Qishang and left.

A dinner party ended up being unhappy.

Jiang Xu didn't care about what happened at the dinner party, because it shouldn't belong to his life trajectory.

The City Lord's Mansion arranged for Jiang Xu to stay in a noble guest room. Although Jiang Xu agreed on the surface, he had no intention of resting in the mansion.

After Jiang Xu left the City Lord's Mansion, he came to Yueyang Restaurant, because the follow-up matters still needed to be done.

In the restaurant, except for the original shopkeeper and the vicious guy who left, the rest of the guys and chefs are still waiting for Jiang Xu, because Jiang Xu left a message when he left.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, he saw a handsome young man greet him, and then he knelt down on the ground: "Grandfather!"

"You...are that little beggar?"

"It's the villain, the villain's name is Wang Lang!"

Jiang Xu said in his heart that clothes really depend on clothes, the little beggar has become a handsome young man after some grooming.

"Get up, a man has gold under his knees, so don't kneel down easily!" Jiang Xu bent over to help the young man, but unexpectedly the young man kowtowed heavily three times.

Jiang Xu sighed: "Okay, okay, get up!"

"Master!"

At this time, a group of guys and chefs also came to salute.

Jiang Xu's face sank, and he said seriously: "You are wrong, he is your boss!"

"Uh, yes!"

After Jiang Xu ordered everyone, he let Wang Lang stay alone.

"Swallow this!"

There was a flash of inspiration between Jiang Xu's fingers, and a pill appeared in his hand.

Without any hesitation, the young man Wang Lang directly took the pill and swallowed it into his stomach. In an instant, his stomach felt as if it was being scorched by a raging fire, and immediately after that, his internal organs seemed to be torn apart.

"Grandpa, I..."

Jiang Xu didn't show too much pity, but ordered in a cold voice: "Keep clear, hold back!"

According to what Jiang Xu said, Wang Lang has been enduring the pain in his body, and he didn't even utter a cry from the beginning to the end.

On the veined skin, muddy sweat kept secreting, so that as time went by, Wang Lang, who had just been clean for a while, became a dirty little beggar again.

An entire hour passed, and the pain in Wang Lang's body gradually eased, and his twisted and struggling expression gradually returned to its original appearance.

"Huh..." Wang Lang opened his eyes, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the filth all over his body, and suddenly became surprised, "Grandfather, how could this happen?"

"The elixir just now has helped you wash your marrow and cut your tendons, help you rebuild your muscles and bones, and transform your physique. Although there is still a gap between you and a real genius, this qualification is not bad!"

Jiang Xu said, and the palm of his hand flashed again: "I will give you exercises and martial arts again. Although they are not high-end goods, they are enough to keep you from being bullied!"

Immediately, two flashes of aura fell directly into Wang Lang's mind, forming a unique memory rubbing.

"Engong, so I can also practice?"

Wang Lang felt the changes in his body, and felt that he was in a dream, which was so unreal.

Jiang Xu nodded: "Of course, with your current aptitude, I think it won't be long before you can go after those imperial guards!"

Seeing Wang Lang's excited face, Jiang Xu just smiled very calmly.

With Wang Lang's original physique, he couldn't cultivate at all, and it was almost the same as he was back then, but now that he has been trained with pills, it is completely different.

After Babufutu refined the dragon-raising elixir, Jiang Xu used the remaining materials to refine some elixir for improving physical fitness. Although the effect of this elixir is not as good as the dragon-raising elixir, it is far more effective than the body-quenching elixir used in the world. it is good!

In fact, after Jiang Xu took one dragon-raising pill himself, he still had three dragon-raising pills as reserves.

The reason why Wang Lang was not given Yanglong Pill was because Yanglong Pill was very precious and difficult to refine, and the second was because of Wang Lang's carrying capacity.

Yanglong Pill has extremely strong energy, and only those who can bear this energy can transform their physique, and the physique of ordinary people can't bear it at all, so not only can't achieve the expected effect, but they will explode and die because they can't bear it!
At the beginning, Jiang Xu was able to let Wang Tao, Situ Le and Hu Qing'er take it with confidence because although their foundations were damaged to varying degrees, their own physiques were spiritual cultivation physiques, so they could naturally carry and transform them.

And the reason why he imprinted the exercises and martial arts on Wang Lang's mind in the form of light books is also because he was worried that the other party would not have the ability to protect him.

If he conceived a crime because of his innocence in the future, that would not be the result he wanted to see.

After dealing with the follow-up matter, Jiang Xu left Yueyang Restaurant with peace of mind.

As soon as he returned to the guest residence of the City Lord's Mansion, he saw Yue Chunqiu sitting alone in the yard.

Seeing Jiang Xu coming back, Yue Chunqiu immediately stood up: "Ji Wu, where have you been?"

"I'm going out for a walk, why, Brother Yue wants to ask me for something?"

"It's nothing, just looking for you for a drink and you're not here, it's just a little bit of embarrassment!" Yue Chunqiu is a straightforward person, and then waved his hand, and two jars of fine wine appeared in his hands, one of which was thrown at Jiang Xu, "Go on, drink! "

"Well, what a mellow wine aroma!"

Before Jiang Xu drank it, he sniffed it with his nose and felt refreshingly relieved.

"Hahaha, you're a smart kid. This is a good wine that my Yue family has treasured for a hundred years. Most people can't drink it if they want to drink it!" Yue Chunqiu smiled heartily, then opened the seal and lifted his neck, and the clear wine entered his mouth like a waterfall.

Jiang Xu has always been a drinker of tea, and he is not very good at drinking, but seeing the other party's boldness, he also tilted his neck and poured in a sip of fine wine.

"Good wine! Come, I respect you!"

"Okay, let's drink together!"

Under the gazebo in the courtyard, the two each picked up jars and drank booze, and they both tacitly did not catalyze the alcohol with their true energy, and they both drank according to their respective drinking capacity.

Therefore, after a lot of drinking, everyone was a little tipsy.

"I can see that you have something on your mind." Among the two in silence, Jiang Xu was the first to break the silence.

Yue Chunqiu smiled bitterly, then shook his head: "I have always felt guilty about my father's serious injury, and I am so useless as a son of man!"

"What is going on, you might as well tell me!"

Jiang Xu was also a little puzzled about this matter, and since the topic had come to this point, he simply asked a question.

Yue Chunqiu didn't seem to be upset: "This matter started three years ago..."

Thousands of miles away from the north of Yueyang City, there is a barren and barren land, surrounded by mountains and forests that spread for thousands of miles. Although it is an inaccessible area, it is called the Forest of Agelessness.

In recent years, the Forest of Immortality has been relatively peaceful, but three years ago, a Jinkui Yuanjun appeared.This Jinkui Yuanjun slaughtered the living beings, so that he extended his claws to Yueyang City. Since then, the people in Yueyang City have disappeared inexplicably.

The people in Yueyang City are getting fewer and fewer, but the bones in the old forest are piled up higher and higher, which makes the people in the whole Yueyang City panic all day long.

As the lord of Yueyang City, Yue Qishang naturally couldn't turn a blind eye to the safety of the people, so he led the imperial guards to kill the harm in the old forest!

But the result was extremely tragic, all the imperial guards led by Yue Qishang died in battle, and Yue Qishang himself was also seriously injured and fled back to Yueyang City, which was regarded as saving his life.

Life has been recovered, but the root of the disease has also fallen since then. Not only the foundation has been damaged and cannot be recovered, but the person is also aging rapidly day by day.

In the past three years, Yue Qishang tried many methods, but they were unable to cure the hidden old diseases in his body, so that in the end, he gave up any hope.

Listening to Yue Chunqiu telling the story, Jiang Xu has been listening silently as an audience.

After Yue Chunqiu had finished all the words, Jiang Xu said: "With my uncle's ninth level of cultivation, even if the foundation was seriously injured that year, it will not be impossible to repair it in three years!"

"Yeah, I've always wondered about this. Seeing my father's aging day by day, being a son of man really hurts my heart!" Yue Chunqiu said, taking another sip of wine.

Jiang Xu was silent for a moment, then asked again: "In the past three years, has that so-called Jinkui Yuanjun still caused trouble, and has the number of people in the city decreased?"

"Although my father was defeated in the battle with Jinkui Yuanjun back then, the opponent also suffered serious injuries. In recent years, he has not come to Yueyang City to fight against the wind. It's just that the population of this city is still decreasing, and most of them have disappeared in recent years. It's children!"

"Children?"

When Jiang Xu heard this answer, he frowned immediately, and a thought flashed by.

"That's right, there are quite a few children missing, but there are no clues in the investigation, so we have to let it go. It is for this reason that we are wary and reject people with faces..."

Yue Chunqiu's words answered Jiang Xu's doubts before and after he entered the city, so it can be understood that Wu Tang, the commander of the imperial guards, regarded him as a bad person as soon as he came up.

Obviously, the disappearance of people in these years has made them tense and have the idea of ​​​​expelling foreign countries.

Jiang Xu drank silently, raised the corners of his eyebrows slightly, looked at the bright moon in the night, and seemed to see through a trace of mist in it: "It seems that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface!"

"Hmph, I think you're really not innocent. It's okay for my ignorant girl to refuse the marriage at the family banquet. Why do you say you refused the marriage? If I look at it, you must have something in private. I have a new love!"
