Underworld entries, starting with ghost stories.

Wu Qing looked around.

A magnificent room with a square table made of rosewood, beautiful window lattices, a copper lamp on the table, and carved stools beside it.

Then look at the little girl next to me.

He activated the "I want to check the cards" skill.

—"A little girl."

He looked at the little girl's face.

—"The little girl's face."

— "The little girl's chest."

— "The little girl's waist."

Continuing to read, I found a very long line of text.

—Are you also a State Grid contracted customer?

Wu Qing: "..." What the hell?

The young maid in green turned her head and looked over, meeting his innocent gaze.

A scream followed, and someone rushed outside: "He's awake! He's awake... Master, he's awake!"

Not long after, an elderly man in a long robe strolled in slowly: "You're awake? Come, let me see you."

The old man sat by the couch, took his hand, and placed two fingers on his wrist pulse.

A cool sensation traveled along Wu Qing's meridians, circulating within his body for a few moments.

"Not bad, not bad. After all, you're young, and you've recovered very quickly." The old man nodded in satisfaction. "It wasn't for nothing that the young lady risked exhausting her inner energy and falling seriously ill to bring you back."

Wu Qing moved a few times and found that everything was fine.

He was secretly surprised; it turned out that the idea of ​​using internal energy to quickly heal injuries, as depicted in martial arts films, was actually real.

"Old sir, who are you? Where is this place?" he asked.

"This is Dou Family Village! I am Cen Hao, and everyone here calls me Master Cen," Master Cen said. "Little Sparrow, bring this Young Master Wu a bowl of meat soup; he must be hungry too."

The little maid answered crisply and ran outside.

After drinking the meat soup, Wu Qing felt much more energetic.

Master Cen placed his hand on his wrist again, and his true energy flowed through his body, making him feel refreshed.

Wu Qing saw that the words were hanging from his fingers.

—"Qingxu Skill (Seventh-Rank Internal Skill)!"

Wu Qing got out of bed, went to the window, and looked out.

He saw everyone busily loading carts, and in the distance, there were many soldiers, and under the command of the martial artist, groups of strong men were training in formation.

"Are they moving?" Wu Qing pointed outside, looking at Master Cen.

"We're preparing to move to Wuji Mountain," Master Cen said, stroking his beard. "The young lady said you were the advisor of Wuji Village. The entire Wuji Village was wiped out, and you were the only lucky one who survived. You even helped the young lady avoid the sneak attacks and ambushes by the imperial court's lackeys."

"What a pity. If we had gotten there sooner, perhaps Wuji Village wouldn't have been destroyed."

Looking into the distance, Wu Qing saw fields stretching across the mountains, and many farmers were busy harvesting, even cutting down the wheat ears that were not yet ripe.

It seems like the entire operation will be relocated.

He couldn't help but say, "Giving up such a good place to go to Wuji Village? Isn't that like joining a rebellion?"

Master Cen laughed and said, "Isn't it just about rebelling? But there's nothing we can do about it. The court has found out that the young lady's father, the Duke of Jiande, secretly funded Sun Anzu's uprising."

"The imperial court sent its lackeys to capture the young lady, but they failed. Soon they will send troops to attack. This place is good, but it is indefensible. The young lady is prepared to take your advice and move to Wuji Village."

Wu Qingdao: "Would you like to take my advice?"

No wonder Dou Xianniang asked him what the benefits were of being stationed at Wuji Village back then.

Then a jolt ran through him: "Dou Family Village...Lord Jiande...Dou Jiande?" He was completely stunned.

Master Cen laughed and said, "You've heard of the patriarch's great name? That's quite normal."

"Lord Jiande was a famous hero in Hebei, and his Zhen Shen Blade was renowned throughout the martial arts world. Every hero in Hebei knew of him."

Wu Qing murmured, "Hebei... Dou Jiande... But I've heard that the current emperor isn't named Yang Guang?"

"Yang Guang? Who is that? That tyrannical emperor's surname is Yang and his given name is Ying."

"Right, right?" Wu Qing hurriedly said, "His name isn't Yang Guang at all."

So this Dou Jiande from Hebei is just someone with the same name?

After Wu Qing traveled through time, he did try to figure out which dynasty this was.

But he was surrounded by illiterate refugees, and he himself was poorly clothed and starving. When asked, they said that the current emperor was named Yang Ying, and that was all they knew.

Wu Qing thought and thought, but there was no emperor named Yang Ying in the history books he had read.

Furthermore, since martial arts existed in this world, he was certain that he had not traveled to the ancient times he knew.

During that period, he couldn't even survive, let alone clarify these things.

Upon hearing the name Dou Jiande, he had a strange feeling, almost thinking he had traveled back to the end of the Sui Dynasty.

He chuckled, "There probably isn't another Duke of Tang named Li Yuan, is there?"

Master Cen glanced at him: "Yes!"

"The head of the family has a close friend named Shan Xiongxin, who has a blood feud with the Duke of Tang, Li Yuan, for killing his father. If anyone from the Shan family is here, you must never mention the name of the Duke of Tang, Li Yuan."

Wu Qing was completely devastated.

He murmured, "Does the Duke of Tang have another son named Li Shimin?"

"I've never heard of this name," Master Cen said. "I've only heard that his eldest son is called Li Dafeng and his second son is called Li Erfeng."

"But the most famous is his third son, Li Yuanba. Although he was young, he was incredibly strong and his name shook the martial arts world within the pass. Everyone who heard of him turned pale."

Wu Qing looked up at the sky outside the window, his whole body frozen in place.

Brother Erfeng, can I go and hug your leg right now and write three "misery" on your leg... no, no, I mean I'll be an accessory on your leg?

As they spoke, a fragrant breeze wafted over.

But then Dou Xianniang floated in, looked at Wu Qing, and smiled, "You're finally awake."

She had changed into a bright red, round-necked long dress with arrow-sleeved sleeves, a battle sash around her waist, and a golden bow at her side. She looked like she was returning from outside, and was quite travel-worn.

She tied her hair up with a crown, dressed almost like a man, but her chest was alluring, just like her whole person, making her look exceptionally spirited.

Wu Qing glanced over and saw small words floating on her chest.

— "A woman's breasts".

Wait a minute, last time when I was nestled in her arms, all I saw was "a beautiful woman's breasts that I was willing to let you rub against," how come it's changed back now?

When she's willing to let me rub against her breasts, they're like a beautiful woman's breasts; when she's not, they're like a woman's breasts.

This skill is quite realistic.

"Thank you so much, young lady, for saving me!" Wu Qing bowed respectfully, mimicking the manner of scholars of this era.

Although he still felt that it was unnecessary to go through all that trouble, he could just let me die and then write a few words on your leg.

"You don't need to thank me!" Dou Xianniang said with a heroic air, her laughter as melodious as silver bells, yet powerful in tone. "If you hadn't reminded me in time, I would have already fallen into the trap of those court lackeys."

"I don't care if I die, I'm just afraid they'll use me to threaten my father and put him in a difficult position."

Master Cen asked, "Young Miss, when shall we depart?"

Dou Xianniang said, "I originally thought we could hold out for another ten days or so, but now the situation is urgent."

"There might be spies around Father. The authorities have already confirmed that he secretly funded Gao Jibo. Now he has no choice but to rebel. We'll leave tonight for Wuji Village."

"We can attack or retreat from Wuji Village, and once Father rebels, Hebei will be in chaos, and the government will have no time to care about us."
