Chapter 359 Defeat
Wang Cong struggled to get up from the bed, put on his clothes and went out, just in time to see Tao Yanbai opening the door with his eyes half closed.

When the brothers saw each other, they couldn't help but sigh, knowing that they had been deceived by their father (the master uncle) again.

But since they had already gotten up and put on their clothes, it was not realistic to go back to bed, so they could only go to the kitchen to get hot water to wash their faces.

Tao Yanbai rubbed his stomach and said, "I ate too many snacks last night. I'm not hungry at all this morning."

Wang Cong: “Me too.”

Because I'm not hungry, I don't want to get up.

The two of them fetched some water and washed their faces at the edge of the cliff. When they poured the water down the cliff, Pan Yun and the other two came over with messy hair and a wooden basin in their arms.

Wang Cong asked quietly, "Little Master, are you guys just getting up too?"

Pan Jun nodded dully, "My senior brother woke me up. Why do we have to get up early during the New Year? Shouldn't we sleep as long as we want during the New Year?"

"Why are you sleeping? Isn't it enough that you slept in the cave for twenty days?" Wang Feiyin pinched his waist and said, "Hurry up and wash up and go to the pharmacy. I have figured out a new recipe for a pill that is very effective in healing internal injuries. You all go there later and I will teach you how to make the pill."

Pan Yun pointed at his nose and asked, "I want to learn too?"

Wang Feiyin glanced at her and said, "Why don't you want to learn? Cultivating Taoism is to cultivate the mind, and cultivating truth is to cultivate the body. If you know nothing about the human body, how can you cultivate to the great way?"

"You are a disciple from Mount Sanqing after all, you can't be incapable of not being able to make a single elixir, right?" Wang Feiyin said, "From today on, you will also learn medicine and alchemy from Miao and Miaozhen."

"Miao and Yanbai need to learn 10 points, and you and Miaozhen need to learn at least 6 points. I don't expect you to master it, but at least you can find the answer yourself when you have doubts."

"When you are out there, you can save yourself and help others," Wang Feiyin pointed at Wang Cong and said, "Even this ignorant man knows medicine, you can't be worse than him."

Pan Jun turned his head and glanced at the master's nephew. His desire to win was aroused. He nodded seriously, "Don't worry, senior brother. I will never let you worry about my studies. I will wash up and wait in the pharmacy now."

Wang Cong: …

Wang Feiyin said in a friendly tone: "There's no need to be so anxious. Wash up and have breakfast later."

Wang Feiyin looked at the three people with a warm face as they left with the water. When he turned to look at Wang Cong, his eyes were not eyes and his nose was not a nose. "Why are you still standing there? Time has passed by like a mad horse. You even made a great vow to keep your magic weapon. With your lazy attitude, are you planning to die of old age in the mountains?"

Wang Cong silently carried the basin back, combed his hair, took his sword and went out.

He decided to practice sword skills before having breakfast.

Pan Jun followed closely behind, also coming out with a sword, and Pan Xiaohei followed slowly behind her.

Wang Cong couldn't help but pause, "Master Junior, are you so fast?"

Pan Yun: "How long does it take to wipe your face and put on a hat?"

Wang Cong glanced at her head and almost forgot that Junior Master Uncle had no hair, so she didn't have to worry about combing her hair or styling her hair.

The master and his nephew went to the square in front together, each of them occupied a corner and began to practice sword skills.

After Pan Yun finished practicing a set of sword techniques, he felt that it was not enough, so he looked at Wang Cong and said, "Master nephew, come, let's practice together."

Wang Cong: "... Junior Master, if you want to kill me, you can just tell me directly."

Pan Yun: "I will fight you with my strength, only the moves will be compared, not the internal strength."

Wang Cong was willing to do so, "Little Master, I am sorry for that."

After saying that, he stabbed at Pan Yun with his sword. Pan Yun raised his sword to block it, and the two of them started fighting instantly.

When Miaohe was cracking eggs to call the two back to have breakfast, they saw them fighting from the north to the south of the square, and then into the bamboo forest...

Miaohe immediately threw away the eggshell and ran after him while holding the egg in her mouth. The eldest senior brother and the young master started fighting, and their sword skills were really impressive.

Pan Yun and Wang Cong fought and advanced, and the remaining snow on the bamboo leaves was shaken by the force of their energy and fell down.

Pan Yun spun around in the snow and stabbed. Wang Cong quickly retreated, blocked her attack with two clangs, and then spun around to avoid it. Pan Yun's sword stabbed into the bamboo behind him...

Wang Cong had already turned over and flew up on the bamboo. Pan Yun's sword did not stop, and his Qi force slashed upwards along the bamboo joints...

Unfortunately, she suppressed her cultivation level, and her fourth-level internal strength was not enough for her to split the entire bamboo in half.

In this delay, a sharp sword energy stabbed down from above.

Pan Yun suddenly pulled the sword out of the bamboo and just managed to block the sword as it was falling.

Wang Cong hooked his foot on the top of the bamboo and struck downwards, but was blocked by Pan Yun. He then made a quick decision and followed the pulling force of the bamboo upwards. The moment he stood up, he slashed with his sword, causing Pan Yun to pause slightly.

When Wang Cong saw that Pan Yun hadn't caught up with him, he leaned on the bamboo and looked down, and asked loudly, "Little Master, we are competing in swordsmanship, do we also have to compete in military tactics?"

Pan Yun: "What kind of military strategy is this? You win, come down now!"

Wang Cong couldn't believe it, "I won?"

He jumped down from the bamboo and stood in front of Pan Yun.

Both of them were covered in snow and water, looking completely white, so Wang Cong immediately saw a scratch on Pan Yun's shoulder, with red blood oozing out of it. Wang Cong stuttered, "Hey, hey, this is my injury? Am I that powerful?"

Pan Yun: "I sealed my cultivation, but you are so powerful now."

Pan Yun tapped on her dantian, and her cultivation was released. She then covered her shoulder, and the bleeding stopped after a while.

Wang Cong swallowed his saliva and said, "Uncle Junior, let me bandage you first. Can you not let my father know about this?"

Miao He, who was standing outside the bamboo forest listening to the noise, saw that there was no fighting sound for a long time, so he pinched his waist and shouted, "Little Master, Big Brother, come back for breakfast!"

Pan Yun responded casually and said to Wang Cong, "I took a look and it's just a layer of skin broken. It's not a big problem. I'll just sprinkle some medicine powder and change clothes when I go back."

Pan Yun put away his sword and walked out. "I've concluded that your sword can't kill me because your internal strength is too weak. What a good sword! If your internal strength is stronger, you can cut off half of my body from my shoulders down. You will win without a doubt."

Wang Cong: …

"My shortcomings are that I don't have enough experience, my sword moves are not fierce enough, and I don't have many countermeasures," Pan Yun said, "Before, I relied on my deep internal strength to kill the enemy, and I used brute force and speed to break the situation."

As long as her internal strength is strong enough, her power will be strong enough and her speed will be fast enough.

Pan Yun looked Wang Cong up and down, "I can't tell, do you fight often?"

You know, she had fought many times, not to mention her past life, because she was a research student and there were few times when she was needed to take action, so she lacked experience.

But after coming to this world, she has fought many fights and considers herself experienced.

Wang Cong seemed to know what she was thinking, and he swung his sword back behind him, "Little Master, I also went to the academy and traveled around every year. Moreover, after graduating from the academy, I also started a business and ventured into the world."

"I have experienced bandits, corrupt officials, powerful gentry, and the grudges and hatreds in the underworld."

Pan Yun's eyes lit up, and he leaned forward to ask, "So are you famous in the martial arts world?"

Wang Cong glanced at her shoulder and saw that the blood had really stopped seeping out. He relaxed and walked out of the bamboo forest while saying, "No, Sanqingshan Wang Cong, a name is enough, what other nicknames do you need?"

Pan Yun said: "I want to give myself a few more names, and use them separately when the time comes."

Wang Cong: "You must be the one who wants to do something bad, otherwise why would you change your name?"

People who feel justified in doing so will pat their chests and say that they will not change their names or surnames.

Pan Jun thought about it and realized that he was really going to do something bad, so he touched his nose and said nothing.

Miaohe is still eating eggs outside.

She took out a hot egg from her sleeve and was peeling it with her head down.

Hearing the footsteps, he looked up and asked, "Little Master, it takes you so long to beat the senior brother?"

Pan Yun said: "Don't wrongly accuse me, we were sparring with each other in swordsmanship, and the nephew won."

Miao He was stunned, "Big Brother is so powerful?"

Wang Cong gave her a slap on the head, "Am I that weak? Stop peeling it, and eat it when you get home."

Miaohe nimbly tore open a piece of eggshell with her fingers, and then peeled it out in a flash. She was about to put it in her mouth when she suddenly sniffed, "I seem to smell blood."

Pan Jun pulled her and walked quickly, "You smelled it right, I scratched my hand, I will go back to change clothes later, you help me serve the porridge and let it dry, I also want to eat two eggs..."

Miaohe put the egg in his mouth and asked vaguely, "Was it scratched by the bamboo leaves?"

Pan Yun responded.

Miao He said: "You shouldn't fight in a bamboo forest. Last year, Miao Zhen and I were practicing martial arts in a bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves were swept by the Qi force and were like blades. It was so painful when they cut people..."

Miaohe didn't take Pan Yun's injury seriously. It was just a scratch by bamboo leaves. They were often injured, so she skipped back to serve her porridge and peel eggs.

Wang Cong breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his fist towards Pan Yun, and went back to the house to change clothes.

The snow had melted when it fell on my body, and my clothes, shoes and socks were all wet.

Pan Yun went back to the house and took a look at the wound on his shoulder. It was not a serious problem, so he applied medicine, bandaged it and changed into new clothes.

Pan Xiaohei had returned to his nest at some point and was laughing at her, "You can't even beat Wang Cong, and you're still going out to venture into the martial arts world."

Pan Jun nodded thoughtfully, "You're right. If one day my Dantian is injured, or my Yuanli and internal force are no longer usable, and I only have moves and my body's instincts, won't I be bullied to death? So I still have to practice."

"After learning alchemy in the morning, I will go to Fourth Senior Sister to practice swordsmanship in the afternoon. She must have a lot of swordsmanship. I still have too few swordsmanship moves."

Pan Jun looked at Pan Xiaohei, his face darkened and he said, "You too, as a cat, and a cat who has already entered the ranks of spiritual practice, you also have to learn how to attack. If I get into trouble in the future, you have to take the opportunity to follow me."

Pan Xiaohei: ...
