Chapter 479: Map
"The recovery is pretty good." Huang Yuchen replied with a smile: "Except for the accident that I feel heavy and still cannot recover from Dou Qi, everything else has returned to normal."
Liu Xingan heard this and nodded gently and said, "My junior brother and I have been recuperating recently and pay less attention to you. The main reason is that you are awake and it is only a matter of time to recover. After the last battle, we both suffered some minor injuries and needed time to condition and slowly eliminated the Douqi that invaded the meridians, so it took a long time."
"Senior Brother Liu doesn't need to explain to me. Thanks to the careful care of the two senior brothers, I can avoid external interference. When I am unconscious, I rely on the care of the two senior brothers." As he said that, Huang Yuchen stood up and bowed deeply to the two, saying, "Yuchen is here, thank you for your two senior brothers."
Since Huang Yuchen woke up, Qi Zhengye and Liu Xing'an have been in meditation most of the time and rarely have time to talk to Huang Yuchen, so they have only done the things they expressed their gratitude to them until today.
"The words are so serious." Qi Zhengye immediately stood up and helped Huang Yuchen up, and said with a smile: "We are the same family, so where did we get so many etiquettes? My brothers have nowhere to go, and they still exist in the Eastern Prince's Mansion. Thanks to the care of the little prince Yuanwu, the matter of protecting you is just a simple task, not to mention that we didn't do anything."
"Have the injuries of the two senior brothers recovered?" Today's two senior brothers were very talkative. Huang Yuchen was in a good mood. He sat down on the chair behind him and asked them with a smile.
"Basically restored." Liu Xingan smiled and said, "I have already reached a bottleneck since I practiced to the bottleneck, and thanks to this battle, the bottleneck has been loosened. I believe that I will be able to break through soon."
"Are the two senior brothers going to break through the martial arts master?" Huang Yuchen said in shock: "This is a great thing. Congratulations to the two senior brothers! The two senior brothers can break through the martial arts master in this grade. It's really a talent."
Liu Xingan smiled and shook his head, Qi Zhengye, who was standing beside him, whispered: "Actually, this bottleneck has been around for a long time and has reached the verge of loosening. The last time I blocked the assassin for you is also an opportunity."
"Thanks to the guidance of the master, we can reach the threshold of the martial artist in such a quick time." Liu Xing'an echoed.
When talking about Xu Xiuping, Huang Yuchen felt a little strange. He felt that the master Xu Xiuping he saw this time was a little different from what he saw last time, but he couldn't say what the specifics were different. Huang Yuchen couldn't tell me a lot about Xu Xiuping, but he had seen him once before. This time he suddenly appeared in Pingjin City and said some irrelevant words to himself, and then disappeared again. However, he and a few of them appeared in Pingjin City on the same day, which still made Huang Yuchen feel a little confused.
"Talk about the master." Huang Yuchen looked at the two of them and said, "Do you two senior brothers know where he went?"
The two of them shook their heads almost at the same time, and Liu Xingan whispered: "My master didn't say anything when he left, nor did he tell me where he went before, but there is something about you, it should be time to tell you now."
"What's going on about me?" Huang Yuchen was stunned when he heard this. Last time Xu Xiuping came to see him, didn't he say everything he should say? Is there anything that needs to be conveyed by someone else?
"Before your master left, I specifically told me that you must talk to you after you have recovered almost the same thing." Qi Zhengye explained.
"What's the matter?"
"Master said that after you recover this time, you should go to a place. He asked me to follow you and protect your safety in the process." Liu Xing'an said,
Take out something from your arms and slowly spread it on the ground. Huang Yuchen looked carefully and found that this was a map.
"Master said, the place you are going to is here." Liu Xing'an pointed to a location on the map and continued: "This is a detailed map of Fuyang Province, the Qitian Empire. This place is located on the edge of the imperial capital, but it covers a very large area. Without this map, you will definitely not be able to find a location."
Huang Yuchen carefully checked the map on the ground. The map was made very precisely, with mountains, rivers and rivers on it, and even scattered villages and towns and small mountain roads on it. The place Liu Xing'an pointed at was at the edge of the map, in a deep mountain.
Huang Yuchen couldn't help but frowned. He immediately guessed what Xu Xiuping meant. The place in the deep mountains was definitely not the Chihong Sect. The Chihong Sect was located in the Shanggu Province of Qitian Empire, located on the west side of Qitian Empire, and was not close to the imperial capital. Huang Yuchen wanted to go to only two places, one was the Chihong Sect. In order to find out why they were looking for him repeatedly, the other was the mysterious cave that his father had visited back then. Huang Yuchen believed that there could help him figure out some secrets of the Eastern Palace, thus explaining many things that cannot be explained now.
However, the two places he wanted to go to had never told anyone. The only one who knew that he was going to the cave was Ye Guan, who had disappeared. And he was determined to go to the cave because of what Ye Guan said to him at that time.
But how did Xu Xiuping know?
"Master, he..." Huang Yuchen frowned slightly. The appearance of this map showed that Xu Xiuping had long known that Huang Yuchen wanted to go to the cave alone, and asked his two apprentices to accompany him in advance, and even prepared the detailed map needed. Why... what?
"I don't know more about the meaning of it, either." Qi Zhengye said, "If we ask what Master doesn't want to say several times, it's futile."
"This place looks like a deep mountain, Junior Brother Yuchen." Liu Xingan looked at Huang Yuchen and asked, "Where is the place you are going to?"
Huang Yuchen frowned at this moment, and he did not answer Liu Xing'an's question. It seems that Liu Xing'an and Qi Zhengye didn't know what they thought, and they didn't even figure out where they wanted to go. This is also natural. Few people in the Eastern Palace knew about the father's trip to this cave. Only the core four city lords and several of his brothers knew about it, but they didn't know the detailed location of the cave.
How did Xu Xiuping know? What role did he play in this?
Seeing that Huang Yuchen did not speak, Qi Zhengye and Liu Xing'an looked at each other, and then Qi Zhengye whispered: "The picture is here for you." As he said that, he folded the map on the ground and handed it to Huang Yuchen, and said: "Master has given him instructions. When you are ready, please notify us at any time and we will go with you. This is in the deep mountains, not as good as in the Eastern Palace. If you are asked to go alone, we are both worried."
"I'm not worried, it's not just the two of you." Huang Yuchen took the map, put it in his arms, and said, "I will never agree to let me go out alone first. Now there are a lot of people staring at me outside."
Liu Xingan smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "You don't need to worry about this matter. As long as you want to go out, we have a way to keep you from everyone in the royal palace. But if you don't leave, you will have the final say. This is also what the master means."
Huang Yuchen nodded slightly and stopped talking. Liu Xing'an and Qi were both in charge.
People looked at each other and stood up and left.
In the bedroom, Huang Yuchen was the only one left. He took out the map in his arms again and placed it on the table to check it carefully. At the same time, he kept thinking about Xu Xiuping.
He was the senior brother of his father when he was practicing in the sect. He had a profound cultivation level and was practicing a very rare fire-attribute fighting spirit and excellent combat power. It is rumored that he could fight against top-level powerhouses at the Venerable level without losing his advantage. Such a person with excellent combat power has such a connection with his father, but what this person is doing now makes Huang Yuchen really unable to figure it out.
How did he know about the cave?
According to the facts Huang Yuchen knew, this incident was born before he was born. At that time, the Eastern Prince's Mansion had been established for more than ten years. Logically speaking, the actions of the father at that time were absolutely impossible to notify the sects more than ten years ago, and it was even more impossible to tell his senior brother specifically. Later, the father got a treasure in the cave, which was now in the Qitian Emperor Capital. This matter was secret for the Qitian Empire, and it was even more impossible for people to know it easily.
At that time, the father went to the cave and only brought Ye Guan with him. In other words, only two people knew the detailed location of the cave. One was his father, who had already fallen in the imperial capital. The other was Ye Guan, who was missing at this moment. It was logically still in Tianqing City.
Could it be... Ye Guan told Xu Xiuping about this cave? During the period when Xu Xiuping disappeared, he had been to the enclave and met Ye Guan?
Huang Yuchen scratched his head gently, unable to figure out the whole story of the matter. However, Xu Xiuping could guess that he was going to the cave and provided a detailed map. Judging from this matter, Xu Xiuping himself may have been to this cave, otherwise he would not have known such a detailed location, let alone preparing for himself in advance.
Could it be that his recent changes are related to this cave?
Huang Yuchen looked at the red dots on the map and frowned involuntarily.
Originally, he planned to go to this place alone after his body recovered, but now that Xu Xiuping has investigated this matter in advance, it will be almost impossible for him to go there. However, he felt good about Qi Zhengye and Liu Xing'an, and these two people saved their lives. It would be no problem to let these two people go with him.
However, it is obvious that Xu Xiuping did not tell Yu Sheng and Xiao Yibo about this matter, otherwise he would have come to him with his temper, and would definitely strengthen the defense of the city lord's mansion to prevent him from actually running out secretly.
The relationship here seemed a bit complicated, so Huang Yuchen simply folded the map, took it back again, stood up, and walked out of the door.
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it first. This is not something you have to face immediately now. Before your body recovers to its best state, Huang Yuchen did not plan to go to this cave just like this. Because judging from the injuries Ye Guan was injured at that time, this cave was not safe, and it could even be said to be very dangerous. With Huang Yuchen's current state, it was almost no different from dying. He was not so stupid that he had to pay his life to explore the secret.
When he arrived in the backyard, Huang Yuchen started a daily necessity for running around the circle again. This was a compulsory course for him to recover his physical strength. Such exercise has lasted for a long time.
The sky is still gray, and after a heavy snowfall, there are still scattered snowflakes flying down.
Huang Yuchen stepped on the snow in the yard and started to resume exercise again.
