Chapter 367 Benefited a lot
Wu Xingyun couldn't help laughing after hearing what Zhang Yuan said.
That smile was like the warm spring sunshine, full of comfort and trust.
She stared at Zhang Yuan with a sincere look and a firm tone.
"My dear disciple, you have devoted yourself to me and considered everything so carefully, how could I be dissatisfied?
Just do as you say. From now on, I agree to all your arrangements.
I’m sure you’ll surprise me.”
Seeing Wu Xingyun being so open-minded, Zhang Yuan's slight worry instantly dissipated like light smoke.
He responded with a smile.
"Okay, Master, since you can accept it, I will explain it in more detail.
This time, the medicinal bath won't just be for you to soak in the tub alone, but for the two of us to bathe together. Is that acceptable to you?"
Wu Xingyun frowned slightly, and that frown disappeared in an instant, like the surface of a lake rippling with a breeze.
Immediately, he looked at Zhang Yuan with relief, his eyes clear and his tone calm:
"I know and I can accept it, so don't think about it anymore, my disciple.
Your master is not the kind of shy little girl who takes everything seriously. Don't worry, you and I don't have to worry about this."
When Zhang Yuan heard this, he felt relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
He said quickly, speaking a little faster and with a hint of urgency:
“Okay then, Master.
Next, let’s prepare the medicinal bath.
I believe you will benefit greatly from the medicinal bath."
Wu Xingyun nodded, his movements gentle and his tone as soft as a spring breeze:
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you, my good disciple."
Zhang Yuan smiled and waved his hands, his movements casual and effortless:
"This is what I should do."
Soon, more than ten minutes later.
Wu Xingyun took off her clothes with graceful and calm movements.
The smooth jade-like back is fully exposed, the skin is like mutton-fat jade, delicate and warm, and under the mist of water vapor, it is even more moist, just like covered with a layer of gauze, hazy and charming.
Zhang Yuan also took off his clothes, stepped into the bathtub with a nimble posture, and came to the position behind Wu Xingyun.
Next, the two of them sat cross-legged in the bathtub together.
They closed their eyes and concentrated, like monks in meditation. The surroundings were quiet and silent, with only the steam rising from the bathtub, the aroma of medicine rising, and the wisps of smoke.
Occasionally, there is a slight sound of water splashing.
During the practice, Zhang Yuan slowly placed his hand on Wu Xingyun's back.
The fingertips touch the skin, which is delicate and warm, as if touching the most precious silk in the world.
He was concentrating, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes focused, constantly monitoring the flow of Wu Xingyun's spiritual power, not missing even the slightest fluctuation.
In less than two minutes, Zhang Yuan found the right opportunity.
His eyes suddenly lit up, like stars in the dark night, and he pointed his finger precisely at the Dazhui point on Wu Xingyun's back.
Here, he slowly channeled the true energy in his body into it. His movements were gentle, like a breeze blowing over a willow, yet revealed a steady strength, like an old tree with deep roots in the soil.
Wu Xingyun suddenly felt a warm current flowing into his body from the acupuncture points on his back, as if the warm spring sun penetrated the haze. At first, the comfortable feeling was like being in the clouds, floating and comfortable.
But soon, the originally comfortable feeling gradually turned into unbearable pain, as if there were fine steel needles moving around in the body, and the tingling sensation spread from the acupuncture points to every part of the body.
As expected, the pain that Zhang Yuan had mentioned before finally came flooding back.
However, Wu Xingyun was not afraid at all at this moment. Instead, his eyes were sparkling and full of anticipation.
If this was the first time Zhang Yuan treated his injuries and the first time his body experienced such pain, he might be nervous and his heart would beat like a drum.
But now, Wu Xingyun knows that behind this pain lies a new life. This pain is undoubtedly telling him that as long as he grits his teeth and endures the pain, he will reap considerable rewards, and this reward will surely be extraordinary, like a treasure hidden in the mountains, waiting to be unearthed.
Therefore, Wu Xingyun's mood at this moment was that joy far outweighed the pain.
Even though his teeth were clenched and cold sweat oozed from his forehead and slid down his cheeks, he was still full of anticipation for everything that was to come, just like a child looking forward to a New Year's present.
Time passed slowly, half an hour later.
Zhang Yuan looked at Wu Xingyun and spoke softly, his voice gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquil atmosphere:
"Master, please turn around and take off all the clothes on your upper body.
Treating the injury is the most important thing, I really can't care about so much else. Please don't think too much about it, Master. I am doing this all to help you clear the meridians in your body.
Especially the meridians in front of the body, it may be a little offensive to clear them, at least in the eyes of ordinary people, this is unacceptable.
I wonder if you, Master, can accept my treatment?"
Wu Xingyun didn't even think about it, and moved quickly, as if he had expected it.
She turned around and looked at Zhang Yuan softly, her eyes as gentle as water:
"My dear disciple, your master believes in you.
Come on, it's okay."
After saying this, Wu Xingyun took off her only bellyband. Her action was not at all shy, but natural and generous.
Zhang Yuan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Beneath that snow-white skin, the lines are soft, like a winding stream, and the curves are exquisite. The peerless beauty contained in it is so heart-stirring that it is hard to ignore.
However, at this moment, helping Wu Xingyun heal his wounds was the top priority. Zhang Yuan calmed himself down and quickly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, as if dispelling the fog in front of his eyes.
He calmed down and began to treat Wu Xingyun's meridians with all his heart, his eyes focused and his expression solemn.
This time, a full hour passed in a flash.
Zhang Yuan's hands were like nimble fish, swimming back and forth in front of Wu Xingyun.
He kept touching one important acupuncture point after another on Wu Xingyun's body, his fingers moving nimbly as if he was playing a peerless piece of music.
Sometimes, in order to fully unblock these acupoints, Zhang Yuan would skillfully control the strength of his fingers, either gently kneading and twisting them, like a spring breeze blowing over flowers, or exerting slight force, like a dragonfly skimming the water, to achieve the best effect.
This naturally leads to some inevitable embarrassment.
If Wu Xingyun said she felt no emotion at all, she would be lying. However, she also knew that the distribution of acupuncture points on the human body was fixed and could not be changed due to worldly taboos. They were like stars hanging high in the sky, their positions fixed.
Therefore, even though Zhang Yuan's hands kept moving, Wu Xingyun gritted his teeth and cooperated. Even though the pain was unbearable, he could only let out cries of pain, which were particularly clear in the quiet space.
Although Zhang Yuan's face turned red, Wu Xingyun understood that this was a necessary process of treatment. His disciple Zhang Yuan was a gentleman and would never have any distracting thoughts in that regard. He was like a clear spring, pure and spotless.
Time passed quietly without them noticing, and Zhang Yuan and Wu Xingyun's training lasted for about six hours.
When the two of them stood up from the bathtub, Wu Xingyun seemed to have been reborn.
Her pretty face became extremely rosy, like the most beautiful flower on a spring branch, radiant and glorious;
Zhang Yuan's expression was also somewhat strange, with the blood surging in his body, as if he was enduring great torture. Fine beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, soaking the hair at his temples, as if he had just experienced a tough battle.
The two of them left the barrel and put on bathrobes.
Wu Xingyun's pretty face flushed red, like the clouds in the sky, gorgeous and dazzling.
She looked at Zhang Yuan and said in a soft voice with a hint of gratitude:
"Thank you for your hard work, my disciple. It's okay. I will definitely repay you in the future."
Zhang Yuan looked at Wu Xingyun, who looked ten years younger after this training. His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he smiled and said:
"It's okay, Master, it's not hard at all.
Look in the mirror right now, I think you'll be shocked by how you look right now."
Wu Xingyun's lips curled up slightly, his eyes filled with disbelief, as if he suspected that what he heard was just a fairy tale.
"Shocked by your own appearance? Is this really that exaggerated?"
As she spoke, Wu Xingyun took light steps and walked towards a mirror not far away, with a graceful figure and elegant manners.
When she saw her appearance in the mirror, she froze in place, an expression of disbelief on her face.
The self in the mirror is mature, charming, graceful, bright and attractive, and more than ten years younger than before.
The skin has been eroded by time and has lost a lot of collagen, making it look old and haggard, like a withered flower;
But now I seem to have returned to the most beautiful age of my life, probably around 40 years old, with charm between my eyebrows and eyes, like a blooming peony.
Wu Xingyun looked at his current appearance and immediately understood Zhang Yuan's previous series of slightly strange expressions.
For a moment, her cheeks couldn't help but turn redder, as if the sunset glow was even darker.
Then he looked at Zhang Yuan and said:
"My disciple, you are truly a genius. Amazing, truly amazing! I never dreamed that you would have such a skill. It's not simple, it's really not simple!"
Zhang Yuan smiled and said:
"It's okay, Master, this is what I should do.
Okay, now I have completed the first meridian dredging for you. Now you can practice your set of exercises normally.
However, when you practice next time, don't practice according to your original method. It's best to practice according to the method I've modified. This way, the effect may be better. What do you think?"
Wu Xingyun nodded, his eyes full of approval, and said in a gentle voice:
"My dear disciple, you are right.
From now on, I will listen to you.
You've worked really hard today, and I've seen it all."
Zhang Yuan quickly waved his hands, a sincere smile on his face:
"It's not hard at all. It's my honor. I'm happy to be able to help you, Master, and solve your problems."
As he spoke, Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Wu Xingyun. A hint of curiosity and admiration flashed in his eyes, and he continued:
"But I have to say one thing: Master, your appearance is truly extraordinary. If you were 18 years old again, you would definitely be a stunning beauty who would outshine all the other beauties."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xingyun couldn't help but laugh out loud, his eyes gleaming as he jokingly said,
"Disciple, what are you planning? Do you want to see me when I was 18?"
Zhang Yuan didn't even think about it and blurted out:
"Of course I do. How could I not? If I could see my master when he was 18, I would be very excited."
Heroine Wu smiled and said:
"Actually, this isn't difficult. As long as I'm willing to change back, I can do so quickly. It just depends on whether I'm willing or not."
Zhang Yuan was startled at first, then smiled and said:
"That's true, but considering your current condition, it's obviously inappropriate to do so.
The meridians in your body have not been completely unblocked. If you want to officially unblock them, you will have to do at least 6 more such treatments, and the subsequent treatments may be even more in-depth.
Only in this way can I completely clear the meridians for you, my master. And only by clearing the meridians can you make your body truly adapt to the state of your youth.
At the current rate of progress, it's obviously impossible to do it without a year or two, but if I were five or six years younger, it shouldn't be a problem."
Heroine Wu smiled and said:
"My dear disciple, you are very thoughtful.
In fact, being younger is of no use; it will only bring more troubles.
It’s not good for a woman to be too beautiful, as it will attract a lot of attention.
Even when I'm walking down the street, people will inexplicably stop me and ask for my contact information or strike up a conversation. It's really annoying, and I'm fed up with that feeling.
It’s better to keep a low profile so that no one can disturb me and I can focus on doing what I like.”
Zhang Yuan smiled and praised:
"Master, you are truly a person with an open mind. You are not simple, really not simple.
By the way, I want to tell you something next."
Wu Xingyun asked:
"Oh? What's the matter? Tell me."
Zhang Yuan frowned slightly and said seriously:
"From now on, you don't need to come to see me so often. You need to wait at least half a month, or even longer before you can come to see me.
Because I am going to Qingyun Temple.
After I went to Qingyun Temple, I could no longer be as free as I am now. If I went there, it would take at least two weeks to get out. If I encountered problems that could not be solved, I might have to stay in Qingyun Temple even longer.
So, Master, during this period of time, you may not be able to see me."
Wu Xingyun couldn't help but laugh after hearing Zhang Yuan's words and said:
"So you're going to Qingyun Temple, okay, I get it.
In the future, I might also go to Qingyun Temple. Wouldn't it be the same if I went to Qingyun Temple to look for you then?"
Zhang Yuan looked at Wu Xingyun seriously, his eyes filled with surprise:
"Okay, is that so? Master, you are going to Qingyun Temple too."
Wu Xingyun nodded heavily and said firmly:
"Yes, the Dao Conference held by Qingyun Temple will start in more than a week. By then, everyone in the martial arts world who is interested in Qingyun Temple will come to participate, especially the disciples of the Dao Sect.
Besides, there is indeed a secret hidden inside Qingyun Temple, so you must be very careful."
Zhang Yuan smiled and replied:
"Okay, then let's meet at Qingyun Temple."
Wu Xingyun nodded and said:
"no problem.
By the way, my dear disciple, after you exorcised the poison from me this time, I feel completely clear-headed.
I wonder, how many times will I need to go through this treatment again?
