Chapter 4289 4291 [Strike first to gain the upper hand]

Back at the ruined temple where he lived, Xiang Nan **** the "Double Dragon Cart" and was about to hit the road with Xu Ziling.

The so-called "Double Dragon Car" is actually a broken carriage, but it was used as a tiger skin to carry the banner, so it called itself "Double Dragon Car".

When they settled in this village, they made a living by doing day jobs for others, such as plowing fields, fertilizing, watering, building walls, grinding mills, etc., just like Ah Q in "The True Story of Ah Q".

They don’t want to make money, they just want a meal. Relying on their youth and strength, it is not a problem to support themselves. But now it was clear that they could no longer stay here, and they had no choice but to leave as soon as possible.

“Well, we have changed villages three times in the past six months.” Xu Ziling sighed, “Where should we go next, Mr. Zhong?”

"I heard that there is a Shilong Dojo in Yangzhou, and there is a Shilong Taoist priest who has great martial arts." Xiang Nan said, "Why don't we go and learn from his master?"

“You may not accept it even if you go there.” Xu Ziling shook his head.

“Hey, you may or may not accept it if you go, but there is always a chance.” Xiang Nan smiled and said, “But if you don’t go, there will be no chance at all.”

"That's right." Xu Ziling nodded after hearing this, "Okay, let's go to Yangzhou. Anyway, we are wandering around, and we have been used to being rejected by others when we were apprentices since we were young."

"Don't be so discouraged. I have a hunch that it will work this time." Xiang Nan smiled and said he urged the horse, "Drive~"

As soon as I left the ruined temple, I saw villagers standing at the entrance of the temple.

“Young Master Zhong, you see, the villagers are reluctant to leave us, so they must be here to comfort us.” Xu Ziling said happily when he saw them.

"Open your blind eyes and take a closer look. Didn't you see that they all have clods of earth and stones in their hands?" Xiang Nan asked, "Does this seem like they are leaving us behind?"

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the villagers threw clods of earth and stones over.

“Oops~” In an instant, Xiang Nan and Xu Ziling were hit several times.

Xiang Nan just responded, but Xu Ziling couldn't bear it anymore. He waved his hands to block it and shouted, "Stop smashing it, please spare your life~"

Their horses also received a few blows, and they suddenly rushed forward like crazy. The villagers were so frightened that they did not care about hitting people and fled in all directions. Xiang Nan and Xu Ziling also escaped.

The two of them immediately drove their carriage to Yangzhou.

“Oh, I can’t even go now.” Xu Ziling sighed.

"Master Ling, don't be so discouraged." Xiang Nan persuaded with a smile, "Haven't you heard that saying, the so-called 'actions bring one third of wealth'? What can you do if you stay in this village? The world is vast, and there is a lot to do. I always believe that you and I are not ordinary people, and we will definitely achieve great things."

“Master Zhong, I really admire you. You are always so optimistic.” Xu Ziling couldn’t help but admire him when he heard what he said.

"The most important thing in life is to be happy." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Oh, look, when Cao Cao arrived, he just said there was a treasure to pick up, and he picked it up immediately."

Xiang Nan suddenly jumped off the carriage and got into the woods beside the road.

“Hey, Mr. Zhong, where are you going? Come back quickly, I can’t see the road clearly without you driving.” Xu Ziling shouted quickly.

 It turns out that when Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were wandering, they mistakenly believed in the advice of a so-called hero, saying that the most important thing in practicing martial arts is to practice your eyesight. And if you want to practice your eyesight, you have to look at the sun.

As a result, Xu Ziling believed it and really stared at the sun. His eyes were burned by the sun's rays. Now he is almost half-blind and everything he sees is blurry.

Without Xiang Nan’s guidance, it would be really difficult for him to move forward.

“Wow, you are really good at it. What a fat rabbit~” Xu Ziling was very happy when he saw it.…

In the evening, Xiang Nan stopped the car and prepared to rest on the spot.

He bled the rabbit, skinned it, removed its internal organs, and then roasted it on the fire. With his skill, even if he only seasoned it with simple salt, the taste was quite good. At least Xu Ziling ate it so much that he almost swallowed it with his tongue.

“Wow, Mr. Zhong, when did you become so good at cooking? It’s really delicious.” Xu Ziling praised while eating.

“What’s better? We haven’t eaten meat for a long time, so you think it’s delicious.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.

 Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling made a living by doing part-time labor, and the most they ate were coarse grains such as sorghum, millet, and black beans. There were often times when they couldn't even find work or had enough food to eat.

“No, I really think it tastes good.” Xu Ziling waved his hand and said, although he was really hungry and had not eaten meat for a long time, this roast rabbit was really delicious. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, moderately salty and really delicious.

“If it’s delicious, eat more.” Xiang Nan smiled and handed a roasted rabbit leg to Xu Ziling’s hand.

After eating, the two of them rested in the car.

"I hope that after arriving in Yangzhou, Taoist Master Shilong will accept us as his disciples." Xiang Nan said to Xu Ziling.

“What, do you really want to become his teacher?” Xu Ziling asked curiously after hearing this.

"I heard that if you practice martial arts well, your eyes will be smarter. If your eyes can be cured, I will kowtow to Taoist Master Shilong and call him dad," Xiang Nan said.

“Young Master Zhong~” Xu Ziling was very moved when he heard what he said.

"It's all my fault. I mistakenly believed the words of a **** and asked you to look at the sun to practice your eyesight. As a result, your eyesight was damaged." Xiang Nan said again.

"Don't blame yourself, Mr. Zhong, it's just that I'm stupid. My eyesight is obviously bad, but I still practice stupidly..." Xu Ziling waved his hand and said, "If you are smart, you will stop practicing after two days."

“I just didn’t practice because I was lazy. The day is so dazzling that I’ll faint if I look at it one more time. It’s you who has the endurance to endure it.” Xiang Nan explained.

"Every gain must come with a loss." Xu Ziling comforted himself, "Although my eyes are much worse, my ears are smarter than yours. If gold falls to the ground, I guarantee that I will pick it up faster than you."

"That's right, go to sleep, we have to travel tomorrow." Xiang Nan laughed.

Xu Ziling nodded and soon fell asleep.

After Xiang Nan fell asleep, he jumped up from the car and cast a daydream spell on Xu Ziling to let him have a sweet dream.

Subsequently, he cast Muggle shielding spells, safe guarding spells, etc. on the surrounding area to prevent thieves and wild beasts from sneak attacks at night.

After finishing his work, he took out his flying sword and galloped all the way to Yangzhou.

He wanted to steal the "Secret of Immortality" first.

Because in the drama version of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", the process by which Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling obtained the "Secret of Immortality" was very coincidental.

When they went to Shilong Dojo, they happened to encounter Fu Junma fighting with Shilong. Just when they were both injured, Yu Wenhuaji came to **** it again.

Therefore, in order to get rid of Yu Wenji, Fu Junma hid the "Secret of Immortality" in the carriage of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, and therefore let them get the "Secret of Immortality".

It can be said that if there is any mistake in the process, the "Secret of Immortality" will not be in their hands.

Xiang Nan naturally didn’t want to miss this opportunity, so he decided to strike first.
