Chapter 109 The Hidden Matters
Li Lianhua quickly wrote down the entire "Yangzhou Slow" poem. Wu You hurriedly stacked the dried ink sheets and placed the newly written ones on the table to dry.
"That's all, Fang Xiaobao. Practice hard."
Fang Duobing raised his head from the meditation, his face full of shock.
"This Suzhou style is quite obscure and difficult to understand, but I can also see its infinite mysteries. It truly deserves to be called a mental cultivation method that can be compared with my master Li Xiangyi's Yangzhou style."
"Li Lianhua, where did you get this set of techniques from? I just tried practicing it and I actually felt much better in my chest, and it wasn't so stuffy anymore."
"Didn't I tell you? It's a family heirloom."
"Impossible. This technique is so incredibly useful that even our Heavenly Mystery Hall's Mind-Reading Technique cannot match it."
"If it is truly an ancestral technique, then your family must have produced many peerless masters. Tell me, how did you acquire it? Don't lie to me anymore."
Wu You covered her mouth and chuckled, "Why doesn't Li Xiangyi count?"
"Since you have asked so sincerely, I will mercifully tell you. One year, I went up the mountain to collect herbs, and unfortunately, I fell off a cliff. Suddenly, a fairy old woman appeared at the entrance of this cave."
"After she made me kowtow three times, she passed on this set of skills to me. Later, I thought about it and realized that this was the legendary predestined affinity with the immortals."
Li Lianhua remained calm and composed, speaking fluently and eloquently, as if this was simply how things were.
People who don't know the situation or Li Lianhua's personality might actually believe what Li Lianhua said is true.
Hua Hua, whose family's ancestral martial arts techniques were passed down from your generation? Who passed them down to you by word of mouth, and to whom will you pass them down?
Hopefully, Fang Duobing didn't notice the flaw in Li Lianhua's words.
"I bother."
Fang Duobing didn't believe it at all.
"There's no such thing as a free lunch."
"Didn't I tell you? This is a destiny with the gods."
Li Lianhua's indifferent attitude infuriated Fang Duobing, but he couldn't do anything about it.
"You're kidding me."
Wu You realized she was overthinking things; how could Fang Duobing possibly discover such a thing?
"I'm telling you, you insist on me telling you, but you won't believe me even after I tell you. So explain to me, a wandering doctor suffering from a heart ailment, where did I find this martial arts manual?"
Li Lianhua was getting annoyed by Fang Duobing's words. "When will this kid ever stop?"
"If I weren't naturally bad at martial arts, I would have become a great hero long ago. It's just a pity that different people have different fates. Now I can only be a wandering doctor. Unlike someone else, who is about to become a peerless martial artist."
After Li Lianhua finished speaking, she sighed twice.
"Alright, alright, consider this a favor I owe you. It doesn't matter if you don't know martial arts, I do. After we get out of here, I'll protect you. Just mention my name if you need anything."
Fang Duobing felt a little embarrassed by what Li Lianhua said, and quickly replied.
Wu You watched as Fang Duobing patted his chest and then started coughing.
After Fang Duobing caught his breath, Li Lianhua continued to deceive him.
"Most importantly, I kowtowed three times when I received this manual. Fang Duobing, you have to kowtow three times for me too, so that I can feel a little more at ease."
"Dream on! Aside from my parents, I only kowtow to my master, Li Xiangyi. Who do you think you are, talking about how fast Suzhou is? You can't possibly compare to how slow my master, Li Xiangyi, is in Yangzhou."
Wu You: Fang is sickly. Aren't your words contradictory?
"You can practice on your own."
Li Lianhua piled up the Yangzhou Slow Heart Sutra, whose ink had completely dried, in front of Fang Duobing, then got up to leave.

"but......"
Wu You: Fang Duobing is nothing, is he going to kowtow to Li Lianhua? He was so confident just now, how could he change his mind so quickly?
Wu You pulled a handful of sunflower seeds from his pocket and started cracking them open with relish. They were spiced and smelled delicious!
Li Lianhua simply stood up and didn't leave, wanting to hear what Fang Duobing had to say.
"However, when I went to Miss Qiao's courtyard before, she said that my master, Li Xiangyi, is still alive, and that Jiao Liqiao sensed her. Although the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance did some inhuman things before, their information is probably true, so I think my master must still be alive, so..."
Fang Duobing stopped talking.
Wu You: Did Fang Duobing guess it? When did Fang Duobing start to grow a brain? Didn't we just confirm that he didn't have much of a brain? How did he suddenly grow one?
Li Lianhua's identity is about to be exposed, oh no, what about Li Lianhua?
Wu You looked at Li Lianhua, whose expression remained unchanged, but her eyes held a complex mix of emotions as she looked at Fang Duobing. Her hand gripped the tassel belt at her waist, slowly sliding it down.
Fang Duobing seemed to have made a big decision, and slowly began to speak.
"Li Lianhua, I know you've traveled all over the country and visited many places over the years, but... have you ever met my master, Li Xiangyi? He was handsome and dashing..."
Several thousand words are omitted here.
"If you know anything about my master, please let me know. I am willing to kowtow three times to you to express my gratitude."
Sigh, all that excitement for nothing. A brain eaten by zombies doesn't have a chance to grow back.
Li Lianhua: I was a little flustered just now, it seems I need to keep practicing.
"No," Li Lianhua said before walking into the Lotus Pavilion.
"Really nothing? Even a little bit of news is good."
Fang Duobing continued speaking from the back.
"No." Li Lianhua walked into the Lotus Pavilion without turning her head.
