Chapter 257 Free is the most expensive!after a while. Yue Buqun returned to the villa next door with a heavy heart. After entering the room, Ning Zhongze frowned and said, "Brother, you are still thinking about the deal! The conditions set by Young Master Cheng are so harsh. Bandits are not easy to catch, and they must be caught alive. We only have so few people in Huashan, it is too difficult to complete it." "That's true. If Huashan was as prosperous as Songshan, with hundreds of disciples, capturing a thousand bandits alive could be accomplished in three to five months..." Yue Buqun sighed. After the sword energy dispute, the huge Huashan Sect was left with only the two old people, the couple, and all the rest were young disciples. Except for a few famous disciples, the rest were all outer disciples who were not worth using. "Brother, Huashan experienced a battle of sword energy and was seriously injured. It is already very good to be able to maintain the current scale." Ning Zhongze felt bad looking at his senior brother with a sad face. Huashan originally had many masters, and any one of the two sects of sword and qi could surpass the Songshan sect. Before the sword energy dispute, Huashan was not only the leader of the Five Great Mountains, but also a major righteous sect that was comparable to Shaolin and Wudang. However, it was also because of this that Huashan would be triggered by internal conflicts within the sect because of the Book of the Golden Flower. It has to be said that Shaolin was a very steady mastermind behind the scenes, triggering internal conflicts in Huashan without anyone noticing.
"Hey~~" Yue Buqun sighed quietly, with a myriad of worries in his heart. If one or two of his direct disciples such as Linghu Chong and Lu Dayou performed better, he would not be so entangled. If this generation is not good, then he will wait for the next generation. As long as there is hope, he can wait. But the problem is that he can't see any signs of Huashan's development and growth. The original expectation was that Linghu Chong had the guts to plead for the flower thief Tian Boguang in front of the heroes of the martial arts world, causing damage to the reputation of the entire Huashan. He was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. Of course, if it is only a temporary damage to one's reputation, it is not a big problem. What really annoyed him was that Linghu Chong had not come to his senses until now, and always believed that he had done nothing wrong in speaking for Tian Boguang. …… midnight. Yue Buqun, who was sleeping in his clothes, quietly got out of bed and tiptoed out of the room. Ning Zhongze, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, then opened his eyes, quickly got out of bed, put on his coat, and followed out quietly. The couple went to the next door courtyard one after another, but Yue Buqun went through the main gate, while Ning Zhongze climbed over the wall and eavesdropped outside the window. She thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't know that Cheng Long was watching her every move... "Master Yue, it seems that you have a deep obsession with becoming stronger!" Inside the room, Cheng Long, who knew that Yue Buqun could not resist the temptation and would definitely come as promised at midnight, took out the Sunflower Manual that he had prepared long ago and said with a smile: "This is the Sunflower Manual, which I got from Dongfang Bubai. It can increase your strength several times within two years, but I don't recommend you to practice it." "Why?" Yue Buqun asked puzzledly. "Because this is a technique that came from the palace..." Cheng Long said with a smile, "If you want to practice this technique, you must castrate yourself first... Back then, the founder of Fuwei Escort Agency, Lin Yuantu, created the Seventy-Two Sword Techniques to Exorcise Evils because he had read the Sunflower Manual, and he became famous in the martial arts world. If you have the courage to castrate yourself and practice the Sunflower Manual, you will definitely be able to leave a name in the martial arts world and overwhelm the heroes." "..."
Yue Buqun looked conflicted. The Sunflower Manual that he had been longing for was right in front of him, but he no longer had the confidence to practice. This martial arts secret book that caused the decline of Mount Hua is indeed poisonous. At that time, two seniors from Huashan, Yue Su and Cai Zifeng, visited Putian Shaolin Temple and secretly read the "Sunflower Manual". In a hurry, they could not read the whole book at the same time, so they could only read half of it. After returning to Huashan, they wrote down what they read from memory and comprehended it together. Unexpectedly, when the two of them verified what they had remembered, they found that they were completely irrelevant and could not reconcile at all. Both of them firmly believed that the other was wrong and that what they remembered was correct. The conflict between Huashan's "sword" and "qi" that had accumulated for many years was ignited. From the moment he took over the position of the head, he had the idea of obtaining the Sunflower Manual one day and seeing its true appearance. But at this moment, when Yue Buqun saw the few lines of large characters marked on the first page of the Sunflower Manual, he felt numb all over. Huashan has lost many disciples because of a martial art practiced by a eunuch. If Hao Datong, the founder of Huashan Sect, knew that his descendants were so absurd, he would be so angry that he would crawl out of his coffin. "To practice the Sunflower Manual, one needs to castrate oneself. Senior brother hesitated. Could it be that he really wants to castrate himself?" Ning Zhongze, whose cat was outside the window, felt his heart tighten. He subconsciously blocked his breathing and listened nervously with his ears pricked up. "Young Master Cheng, if, I mean if, if I castrate myself and suddenly want to regret it later, I wonder if you can let the thing I cut off grow back?" Yue Buqun needs to practice the Sunflower Manual to increase his strength in order to fight against the evil cult monsters, including the righteous masters who may appear in Shaolin, Songshan, Wudang, etc. But he also didn't want to give up on becoming a complete man. After his merits were fulfilled and Huashan returned to its heyday, what he had lost must grow back, even if he might already be gray-haired by then. "Okay, but I like to travel around, and by then I may have left the Central Plains, and I can't tell when I will come back." Cheng Long is an honest man and says what he thinks. It has been verified that he can indeed regenerate severed limbs. Hands, feet, and internal organs can all grow back, and the treasure in the crotch can naturally do the same. The problem is that after leaving, he may not be able to come back. If Lao Yue really bears the pain of having it cut off, he will have to wait a long time before he wants it to grow back! "Hu~~" Yue Buqun let out a long sigh of relief. If it can grow back, there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just a few years or even more than ten years of being a eunuch! It's done. For the revival of the sect and for the sake of being the best in the world, it's no big deal to castrate oneself. He has mastered the Sunflower Manual. After a moment of silence. Yue Buqun took a deep breath and asked again: "Young Master Cheng, if I want to regenerate my limbs and become a healthy man someday, what will it take?" "I need a maid to serve tea and water, wash clothes and fold quilts. If you agree to..." "I agree." Before Cheng Long finished speaking, Yue Buqun interrupted him cheerfully, "Young Master Cheng, it is her blessing that Shan'er can be with you. Even if she is only a maid serving tea and water, she is marrying up. Don't worry, I will persuade Shan'er to serve you well later." Ning Zhongze, who was outside the window, heard this and nodded, thinking to himself, "It is indeed a blessing for Shan'er that Young Master Cheng likes her." "Uh~~" Cheng Long interrupted awkwardly, "Master Yue, you may have misunderstood. The maid I want is not your daughter, but your wife, Lady Ning Zhongze Ning..."
"What? Shi-Junior sister?" Yue Buqun was dumbfounded and stared at Cheng Long with dull eyes. "..." Ning Zhongze outside the window was even more stunned and dumbfounded. I am so old, why does Young Master Cheng like me? This is really... so embarrassing! "How can Young Master Cheng be so absurd?" Ning Zhongze was furious and annoyed. He wanted to rush out and slap Cheng Long in the face to calm him down. He also asked, "What's wrong with Shan'er? How could you look down on her?" "Young Master Cheng, you must be kidding me, right?" Yue Buqun came to his senses and didn't dare to get angry. He could only find a way to save face. "I'm not kidding, I'm serious." Cheng Long said sternly: "Master Yue, the Sunflower Manual is given as a gift, but the after-sales service is charged. Of course, you can choose not to have after-sales service and be a eunuch for the rest of your life." "..." Yue Buqun twitched his lips. There is no after-sales service for the Sunflower Manual, so who would dare to practice it? But if he wants after-sales service, he will have to give up his beautiful wife. For a while, Lao Yue is in a dilemma. "Master Yue, you may have made a mistake. I just want Lady Ning to take care of me, wash my clothes, fold my quilts, and serve me tea and water. I will not force her to do anything. After five years, I will let her return to Huashan." Zhou Shuren once said that if you want to open a window, you have to propose to lift the roof before others will agree. Therefore, Cheng Long did not put forward the real conditions, but let Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze outside the window misunderstand, and then slowly stated his real demands. If he couldn't make Lady Ning return to her heart in five years, then there was no need for him to keep pestering her. "If I just want you to be a maid for five years, I think I can accept it." Yue Buqun's idea was simple. He would have to castrate himself to practice the Sunflower Manual when he returned anyway. If his junior sister stayed by his side, she would be of no use and would cause trouble. It would be better for her to leave so that he could grow stronger in peace and plan for the revival of Huashan. He was confident that within five years, he could resolve all potential dangers that hindered Huashan's revival and bring his junior sister back in style. "Brother, did you agree so quickly?" "Am I not as good as a book of Sunflower Manual in his heart?" Ning Zhongze's face outside the window suddenly turned ugly. Her senior brother, who had been through thick and thin with her for eighteen years, actually gave her away because of a copy of the Sunflower Manual. Even though I was only sent away for five years, I was still serving a hero who fought against the Japanese invaders, so I didn't feel that bad. However, Ning Zhongze still felt somewhat uncomfortable when he thought about how he was sent out by his senior brother because of a eunuch's martial arts technique. Therefore, when she returned to the room in a daze and faced her senior brother who was hesitant to speak, she was very angry in her heart. “Junior sister, there’s something I don’t know how to start with, but it concerns the rise and fall of Huashan, so I have to tell you…” Yue Buqun had actually guessed that his junior sister had overheard the conversation between him and Young Xia Cheng, but some things had to be said in person to show respect. "Brother, the Songshan Sect, which poses the greatest threat to us, will not be able to run rampant for long if it offends the Demon Doctor. Why would you bear the pain of castrating yourself to learn the Sunflower Manual?"
The thing that Ning Zhongze couldn't understand the most was this. In the past, the Songshan Sect was suppressing them. In order to prevent the Huashan Sect from being annexed by the Songshan Sect, he and his wife were walking on thin ice. Even though they knew that the second disciple of Huashan was a spy of the Songshan Sect, they still pretended to be ignorant. Now that a demon doctor who hates evil has appeared, even if the Chongshan Sect has not offended him, it will still be cautious. Brother, there is really no need for you to endure the pain of castration in order to become stronger! "Junior sister, you think things are too simple. Songshan Sect is only an open threat. The hidden threat is actually the most deadly. If you don't have the strength to suppress all powerful enemies, Huashan will be defeated by you and me sooner or later. You have no choice." As he spoke, Yue Buqun held Ning Zhongze's shoulders and said affectionately: "Junior sister, five years will pass quickly. When the time is up, I will go and pick you up." "..." Ning Zhongze wanted to speak but hesitated. She actually had a lot of things she wanted to say, but in the end...it all turned into a light sigh. My brother has shouldered too much. Just be a maid! It's not shameful to serve the anti-Japanese heroes! (End of this chapter)
