Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 230 Invisible Sword Qi
Huang Sixi smiled and said, "This is what I wish for."

He stole a half day's leisure from his busy life.

After a long time of lingering.

Yin Ruiji mentioned the problem to him: "I have memorized the Diamond Sutra by heart. It is a Buddhist scripture and seems to have nothing to do with medicine. My husband asked me to study it for several months. Is there any other reason?"

Huang Sixi nodded: "I have a copy of the Rama Medical Sutra. You must read the Diamond Sutra before practicing. Memorizing it by rote is not enough. You also need to comprehend the Buddhist Dharma and Zen principles. Only when you combine them together can you unleash the power of medical skills."

Yin Ruiji was willing to endorse and gain insights, but these things were really dispensable to her.

Her mind is now full of Huang Sixi. In order not to disappoint Huang Sixi, she is determined to do everything she can.

She also assured Huang Sixi: "Don't worry, my dear. I will definitely learn your medical classics thoroughly. When I go to treat the nobles in the capital in the future, I won't need you to give me any more advice or worry!"

"I didn't ask you to learn medicine just to let you serve the nobles!" Huang Sixi patted her cheek gently: "After you learn the Rama Medical Sutra, you can keep this pretty face and prevent aging. Don't you want to be beautiful forever?"

"I like it most when my husband praises my beauty." Yin Ruiji tilted her neck, rested her head on Huang Sixi's shoulder, and expressed her true feelings: "In fact, I don't want to treat the wives of those high-ranking officials, and I don't want to be a female official in the Imperial Medical Bureau. I just want to stay at home and dance for my husband."

"Dancing in Fuqu music is also great!" Huang Sixi told her, "Wait a little while, I will close the Sixi Pharmacy in Shendu in a few days, and we will go to travel around the world to treat medicine, and enjoy the mountains and rivers! It's just the two of us, so we can just treat it as a honeymoon!"

"Ah! Really, my dear?"

Yin Ruiji suddenly looked up, staring at Huang Sixi with joy, and started chattering: "I will definitely be very happy to accompany my husband to travel around the mountains and rivers. My husband, what does honeymoon mean? Are we going to drink honey for the next month? When you said some time, how long is it?"

She knew that Huang Sixi was good at making honey, which could detoxify and beautify the skin, so she took it every day.

Huang Sixi picked up the embryo of the Dragon Sword from the coffee table next to him and said, "Let's set off after I forge this sword."

Yin Ruiji really wanted to know when the Dragon Sword would be ready, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just smiled sweetly and said, "Yes, Nunu will wait!"

In fact, the casting of the Dragon Subduing Sword has reached the final stage and will be completed in a few days.

However, after the Dragon Subduing Sword is produced, Huang Sixi will not leave immediately, because he has not gathered all the elixirs he needs.

More than three months ago, he gave the recipes of 'Black Jade Paste', 'Nine Flowers Jade Dew Pills', 'Tianxiang Paste Glue' and 'Baiyun Bear Bile Pills' to Yuchi Zhenjin and asked him to collect the medicinal materials.

Yuchi Zhenjin obtained the imperial edict for medicine preparation from Wu Zetian, and directly ordered the medicine from the Imperial Medical Bureau. All kinds of precious medicinal materials were continuously delivered to Sixi Pharmacy.

Seeing that Yuchi Zhenjin was so efficient, Huang Sixi provided him with two more prescriptions.

One of them is 'Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pills'.

This is the life-saving elixir that Huang Sixi obtained from the Qing imperial palace when he returned to the world of martial arts. The only ingredients required to make it are snow ginseng and jade toad.

Snow ginseng and jade toad are both holy medicines for healing and replenishing the body. Once refined into pills, they can almost bring the dead back to life and are most suitable for use in prolonging life.

The second one is the 'Eight Pills for Prolonging Life'.

This was the life-saving recipe that the genius doctor Ping Yizhi prescribed for the old man in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. The required medicinal materials include thousand-year-old ginseng, Poria cocos, Ganoderma lucidum, deer antler, Polygonum multiflorum, Lingzhi, bear gall, Panax notoginseng, musk, and more than ten kinds of precious medicines. If Huang Sixi were asked to collect them personally, he might not be able to get them all, because they are not sold in the Shendu market.

Even if Yuchi Zhenjin asked the Imperial Medical Bureau to send medical workers to various parts of the Tang Dynasty to search for him, it would still take some time.

Only when Huang Sixi has refined a sufficient number of pills and ointments will he accompany Yin Ruiji to leave the capital.

He was currently staying in the backyard of Sixi Pharmacy with Yin Ruiji, when he suddenly heard shouting coming from the courtyard.

He recognized the voices of Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian, officials from the Dali Temple, so he stood up and went out to meet them, while telling Yin Ruiji: "These two people came to the pharmacy while on duty, they must have brought patients with them, you should come with them!"

There are only him and Yin Ruiji in Sixi Pharmacy, and he often needs Yin Ruiji as his assistant.

However, Yin Ruiji has always been reluctant to diagnose male patients, but she couldn't bear to see Huang Sixi suffer, so she made herself a special set of medical equipment.

When she heard Huang Sixi asking her to accompany him, she put on silver gloves and a veil as usual, then carried her medicine box and followed Huang Sixi to the front yard lobby.

She originally thought that there were not many patients, but when she arrived at the lobby, she was shocked to see dozens of injured patients crowded in the hall.

She looked out through the hall door again and found that there were about a hundred people outside. All of them were wearing Tang Dynasty military uniforms and were obviously soldiers.

She was just curious about how these soldiers got injured, but she heard Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian beside her already explaining the situation to Huang Sixi: "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother sent the navy to conquer the Fuyu Kingdom, but they encountered the Dragon King on the way, and the warships were unfortunately destroyed. The navy suffered heavy casualties and returned in defeat! Doctor Huang, most of these navy brothers were injured by the sails!"

More than three months ago, Huang Sixi was introduced by Master Kuiji and on his first day into the Divine Capital, he encountered a group of Tang Dynasty officers and soldiers parading through the city.

At that time, Yuchi Zhenjin had explained that the Buyeo Kingdom had invaded the border, and His Majesty and the Queen Mother were furious, and were mobilizing troops and summoning warships to prepare to suppress the enemy.

After days of preparation, the army finally set out, but unexpectedly the battle was unsuccessful.

After hearing the situation, Huang Sixi said to Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian, "The Tang soldiers who were injured have their own doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to treat them. It's not in accordance with the rules to have them come here!"

Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian both smiled apologetically: "The Imperial Medical Bureau has thousands of injured people who need to be treated, and they are simply too busy to handle it all. So they picked out these hundreds of seriously ill patients and sent them to the pharmacy for you, Doctor Huang, to treat. This mission was entrusted to us by the Imperial Medical Bureau!"

The Imperial Medical Bureau knew that the officials of the Dali Temple had a close relationship with Huang Sixi, so they asked Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian to escort the soldiers to the pharmacy.

Huang Sixi said, "Since the Imperial Medical Bureau has entrusted you with this, there's no harm in giving him a treatment."

He gestured to Yin Ruiji: "Take out the 'Black Jade Intermittent Paste' and the 'Heavenly Fragrance Intermittent Glue'!"

The injuries of the soldiers present were mainly severe bone fractures or large external wounds. "Black Jade Fracture Paste" and "Tianxiang Fragrant Fracture Glue" are the most effective.

Every time Huang Sixi examined a wounded patient, he asked Yin Ruiji to apply medicine.

The soldiers had heard of Huang Sixi's name and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Dr. Huang, for saving our lives. Thank you, Miss, for the medicine!"

Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian had been accompanying Huang Sixi, watching him treat his injuries. When they heard the soldiers say this, they quickly corrected them, "What do you mean by girl? This is my sister-in-law, an eighth-rank medical officer from the Imperial Medical Bureau!"

When the injured heard this, they quickly changed their words: "Thank you, sister-in-law, for the medicine!"

Kuang Zhao and Zhou Qian cursed at the same time: "Bah, what kind of shitty identities do you have! Only brothers in the Dali Temple can call her sister-in-law, you should call her Miss!"

The injured were stunned by the scolding, and then they said, "Thank you for the medicine, young lady!"

When Yin Ruiji heard these words, she felt really happy.

More than three months ago, Huang Sixi solved the Yanzilou murder case, helped Yin Ruiji get rid of her music label, and soon proposed to Yin Ruiji.

When Yin Ruiji learned that Huang Sixi was going to marry her in a formal ceremony, she was so happy that she couldn't sleep all night. However, Yin Ruiji had no parents and no relatives, so the wedding would be very difficult to hold.

She was afraid that outsiders would laugh at Huang Sixi for marrying a musician, so she didn't want to hold a grand wedding banquet.

In fact, Huang Sixi was alone and couldn't do anything big even if he wanted to.

On the wedding day, only Master Kuiji, Yuchi Zhenjin and a group of friends from the Dali Temple were invited.

Yin Ruiji had been Huang Sixi's wife for a long time, but she never made it public. Even in Sixi Pharmacy, she never acted like a wife. She just regarded herself as Huang Sixi's assistant, silently giving medicine to patients and never speaking easily.

Her low-key attitude gave all the patients who came to Sixi Pharmacy for consultation the illusion that she was just a maidservant of Dr. Huang, not his wife.

In her heart, she valued her status as a lady more than anything else. After working for most of the day, she finally treated all the more than 100 soldiers.

By the time all the injured left Sixi Pharmacy, it was already dark.

Yin Ruiji asked: "My dear, shall we go to Sanzang Temple tonight, or stay at the Medicine Hall?"

After she married Huang Sixi, she always lived alternately between the Yuanlin and Yaotang of Sanzang Temple.

Huang Sixi wanted to forge the Dragon Subduing Sword as soon as possible, so he said, "Let's go to Sanzang Temple!"

Several days passed like this.

There was only one step left before the Dragon Subduing Sword could be forged, so Huang Sixi closed the Sixi Pharmacy for a day and stayed at the Yuanlin Sword Furnace.

It was ten o'clock in the afternoon.

There was a "squeak!" sound.

After the Dragon Subduing Sword was tempered, it was finally time for it to shine.

This is a dark golden long sword. There is a streak of strange color shaped like a line of fire hidden in the sword belly. It looks like there is a flame flying in the sword belly.

The entire sword was illuminated by the flame on the sword belly, emitting a strange sword halo and shining brightly.

Anyone who takes a look at it will be attracted by the appearance of the sword and praise it as a peerless divine weapon.

In order to create this magic weapon, Huang Sixi melted the original Dragon Subduing Sword, Black Iron Heavy Sword, Holy Fire Token and Ziwei Soft Sword.

The flame in the magic sword in Huang Sixi's hand at this moment was formed by the combination of the Holy Fire Order.

At first he thought that the flame on the sword's belly was just a decoration and had no other use except for looking good.

Unexpectedly, when he started to dance with the sword and poured his internal energy into the sword, he suddenly realized that his internal energy actually flowed into the sword's belly.

He swung the sword again, and his internal force instantly rushed out of the sword's belly, condensing into an invisible and tangible sword energy, which was quickly exhaled and shot into the air about ten feet away.

There was a peach tree standing about ten feet away from him. He saw the sword energy slashing at a branch of the peach tree. With a "snap!" sound, the branch broke without wind and fell to the ground, as if it had been chopped by a sword.

"what?"

Huang Sixi was greatly surprised. He immediately accumulated his internal energy and injected it into the belly of the Dragon Subduing Sword. He swung the sword and another invisible sword energy shot out, slashing towards a huge rock next to the peach tree.

'Squeak!'

The invisible sword energy cut a three-foot-long sword mark on the stone surface.

Next, as long as Huang Sixi's internal force is injected into the belly of the sword, every time the sword is swung, an invisible sword energy will be emitted. This sword energy can reach as far as ten feet away. Although its power cannot reach the level of cutting stone into mud, it can cut wood and break bones.

After Huang Sixi verified the power of the new Dragon Subduing Sword, he couldn't help but laugh.

When he first recast the Dragon Subduing Sword, he only wanted to obtain a magical weapon of extraordinary quality. However, he never expected that his new Dragon Subduing Sword would actually help him to cultivate invisible sword energy.

Huang Sixi has been practicing martial arts for so long that he can release his internal energy externally, but the most he can do is to use palm strikes and finger strikes in the air, but he has no way of releasing his internal energy into the shape of a sword.

The invisible air sword and invisible air knife are the supreme martial arts that can only be comprehended in the world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

The Tibetan state teacher, Mahavairocana Jiumozhi, practiced a 'flame sword'. When he released his internal energy, it could be condensed into an invisible sword, which could easily cut through branches.

The 'Six Meridians Divine Sword' of the Dali Duan family is the pinnacle of martial arts in the world. The internal force is condensed into an invisible sword of energy after being released, which can easily cut off human limbs from a distance of several meters.

After Huang Sixi mastered the supreme defense of the 'one-foot air wall', he actually also comprehended the long-range attack method of the invisible air sword and invisible air knife, but he could not comprehend the main point for the time being.

However, his new Dragon Subduing Sword solved this problem for him.

From now on, relying on the 'one-foot air wall' and the 'dragon-subduing sword energy', he is confident that he can break out even if he is surrounded by thousands of troops.

He stroked the body of the Dragon Subduing Sword lovingly, thinking, "I wonder which is stronger, my Dragon Subduing Sword or the Six Meridians Divine Sword? There are many masters in the Tianlong Jianghu. How far is my current martial arts cultivation from that of the Sweeping Monk? If I were to fight against the three Xiaoyao Elders, Xiao Feng, Jiumozhi, Murong Bo, and Xiao Yuanshan, what would my chances of winning be?"

When Huang Sixi was daydreaming, Yin Ruiji's soft and tender voice suddenly reached his ears: "My dear, you have been busy for the whole morning. Are you hungry? Nunu made you your favorite crystal dragon and phoenix cake!"

Yin Ruiji spent the entire morning busying herself in Yuanlin's kitchen.

Huang Sixi regained his composure, put down the Dragon Subduing Sword, and waved to Yin Ruiji: "I'm hungry now, what did you do? Bring it all here!"

He thought to himself that the Dragon Subduing Sword had been recast and Yuchi Zhenjin had already collected most of the medicinal herbs, so it was time to prepare to leave the Divine Capital.

After leaving the capital, Huang Sixi would first go to Chang'an to collect a treasure, and then travel around the world practicing medicine.

This treasure is the Tang Dynasty dragon vein that Master Tripitaka personally pointed out to Huang Sixi.

At that time, Master Sanzang personally drew a map, but the location indicated on the map was not in the capital, but far away in Chang'an.

Huang Sixi and Yin Ruiji stayed in the ape forest for one night.

The next day we returned to Shendu Sixi Pharmacy.

Then, for more than a month, both of them lived in the medicine hall. Huang Sixi used the medicinal materials collected by Yuchi Zhenjin to refine the number of pills he needed.

Just when Huang Sixi was planning to close Sixi Pharmacy and travel far away, the newly appointed Dali Temple Minister Di Renjie suddenly came to visit with a humanoid monster covered with fish scales.

Huang Sixi took a glance at the humanoid monster and immediately guessed its identity. It was Yuan Zhen, the young owner of Qingxin Teahouse.

The "Queshe Tea" roasted by Qingxin Teahouse is a royal tribute, specially supplied to the royal family of the Tang Dynasty.

As the Tang Dynasty was conquering the Buyeo Kingdom, the Dongdao Kingdom, which was sandwiched between the Tang Dynasty and the Buyeo Kingdom, was affected. Huo Yi, a Dongdao native, resented the Tang Dynasty for starting the war, so he poisoned Yuan Zhen, the young owner of the Qingxin Tea House, and then took control of the Qingxin Tea House and controlled the supply of "Queshe Tea".

Huo Yi put a poison in the "Queshe Tea" in an attempt to assassinate the Tang Dynasty royal family and court officials. However, his plot was halfway through when he was discovered by Di Renjie, the Minister of the Dali Temple.

At present, all the royal family and ministers of the Tang Dynasty have been poisoned by drinking "Queshe Tea".

In order to remove the poison, Di Renjie visited Huang Sixi.

After listening to Di Renjie's explanation of the whole story, Huang Sixi asked, "Did you go to see Dr. Wang Pu from the Imperial Medical Bureau?"

In the original novel of "Detective Dee: The Mystery of the Phantom Flame", it was the imperial physician Wang Pu who removed the poison from the "Queshe Tea".

In theory, if Di Renjie could just find Wang Pu, the "Queshe Tea" case would be solved, and there would be no need to look for Huang Sixi again.

Di Renjie shook his head helplessly: "I have already visited Wang Pu, but he is helpless against the poison! Since I became the Minister of Dali Temple, I have repeatedly heard about the rejuvenation of Dr. Huang, so I came here to seek help!"

"At your wits' end?"

Huang Sixi stretched out his hand and pressed on Yuan Zhen's pulse, and began to examine him, thinking: "Could it be that something has happened to the poison? Even the imperial physician Wang Pu can't cure it!"
