Chapter 627: Teaching
It turned out that Baoyu heard that Daiyu was to be promised to that muddy man, the Tianshui Earl Bai Lang, and made a scene. Now, hearing that Bai Lang had come to the house, this Master Bao rushed straight to the old lady's place, wanting to make a scene and oppose it—anyway, his father wasn't there, and he thought the old lady liked him, so he could persuade Bai Lang to decline this marriage. The women and maids present, seeing Bai Lang directly explode his upper body clothing, all screamed in surprise.
In terms of age, Bai Lang was stuck on the borderline of suspicion; any older and he shouldn't be with the women—Baoyu didn't have this concept; he still hung out with his sisters. And in terms of appearance, Bai Lang was almost a head taller than Baoyu, and his physique was like a bear or tiger. Those women had never seen such a fierce man—even the late old Duke, the old lady's husband, who was a great general of the imperial court, had never been so heroic.
Many maids and Daiyu—the other sisters weren't there—had flushed faces, and the younger women like Feng Jie were even greedily looking at the snow-white good flesh—Bai Lang's blood was flowing at this moment, and a White Tiger tattoo appeared on his body, ferocious and evil. Baoyu was also stimulated by the blood energy, stepping back a few steps, sitting on the ground with his legs soft, unable to get up, and his eyes just looked at Bai Lang's good flesh.
Daiyu wanted to run, but Bai Lang took a step, and that heroic face magnified in Daiyu's eyes. The next moment, she was hit in the chest and abdomen by a great force, and her whole body was knocked into the air. What others saw was Bai Lang using a shovel hook punch to hit Daiyu into mid-air. That fierce man actually hit a thin young girl into the air; this visual effect was too terrifying. Before everyone could make a sound to stop it, the old lady was almost scared to the point of fainting.
Bai Lang picked Daiyu up, and before she flew out, he slapped her back with his backhand, taking advantage of the situation to move back and forth like lightning, pointing at the old lady's philtrum to soothe all the blood energy that had been shocked by the fright. "Don't worry, it's just to remove the cold energy from birth." Bai Lang said, while driving away like lightning, circling around Daiyu, and Daiyu didn't land. "Congenital deficiency from birth, so she has been sickly since childhood, with a personality of too much thought and worry, leading to depression in her heart, so the root of this disease couldn't be removed."
Bai Lang's strike made Daiyu's whole face turn blue. Everyone watched as the girl's face turned indigo like the Heavenly King in the temple, and they all felt it was terrible, and they all understood what Bai Lang meant by saying she wouldn't live past eighteen if this continued. In fact, Bai Lang felt that Daiyu probably had a kind of congenital heart disease. This thing was unsolvable in ancient times, and although it was dangerous in modern times, at least surgery could be done. Bai Lang's martial arts were divine, and he should be able to do this just by relying on his own strength.
For the final blow, Bai Lang brought his hands together and hit Daiyu's back with a heavy hammer, making her stand firmly on the ground. Daiyu's clothes were slightly messy, and she opened her mouth to spit out a large mouthful of dark blood, and then her complexion visibly improved. The blue color on her face dissipated, replaced by the color of peach blossoms. "Blood energy is cleared, the disease is half cured, the rest depends on yourself. In a few days, I will write a set of boxing manuals and breathing methods, paired with daily meals with more eggs and meat, and you will naturally get better."
When Bai Lang said this, Baoyu was already stunned looking at Daiyu's complexion. Bai Lang had no feelings for this idiot—the family that this fool would squander in the future was already a rotten thing that couldn't be saved, so it didn't matter what he did. Even if he had prospects, so what? His grandmother and mother shouted so that the whole capital knew he was born with jade and had strange signs. If it were an Emperor with a small mind, it would have been a taboo—the current Emperor didn't seem to have a big mind...
Bai Lang pulled up his clothes and put them back on, while Baoyu jumped directly in front of Daiyu to ask about her well-being. Bai Lang just smiled, cupped his hands to everyone present, and walked away with dragon-like strides. His display of such skills spread throughout the noble circle of the capital in a few days. Even the palace had heard of it—those eunuchs and secret guards in the palace were originally meant for this. So there was an audience with the Emperor—after the morning court.
The current Emperor had seen Bai Lang early in the morning, and seeing him again now, he said, "How heroic and strong." The Emperor ordered Bai Lang to explain, "I heard that you have a miraculous hand? You cured the congenital illness of the late Salt Inspector's only daughter?" Bai Lang looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, "Nothing else, just that martial arts are divine." Bai Lang said lightly, and the old eunuch on the side also shouted, "Rude!"
The Emperor waved his hand, "Oh? Is it really divine martial arts?" The Emperor sat back in his seat. Bai Lang, of course, knew that there were at least six or seven people in the palace watching in the dark, and even this old eunuch had a steady breath and could be considered a strong man, and the Emperor in front of him... Bai Lang could also see that he had martial arts, as for how high, it was hard to say. He waved his hand, it seemed he was not interested and let Bai Lang retreat.
"I really don't know what he's talking about." Bai Lang thought to himself. He turned and went to the Rongguo Mansion again. He held a boxing manual in his hand, which was for Lin Daiyu to practice well. As for the breathing method, he still had to teach it personally. "Breathing and visualization, since it's a woman, then Taiyin visualization is fine. While breathing, imagine a cold full moon shining on your heart, don't think about the coldness in it, just think about the relief of people often being together and sharing the moon from afar."
This time when Bai Lang came, the Rongguo Mansion was quite grand—they directly invited him to the old lady's place. Anyway, Lin Daiyu, Jia Baoyu, and the three springs would all be there, and even Lady Wang and Wang Xifeng were often there. Seeing Bai Lang arrive, the older sisters left first, but the youngest little girl, whose name Bai Lang didn't know, stayed behind and looked curiously—she was still young, so there was no need to worry about underage men from outside.
As soon as Jia Baoyu saw Bai Lang, he wanted to say all kinds of silly things, and the first sentence was, "Brother Bai, how can Sister Lin marry you." Bai Lang also smiled, "Oh, oh." Then he directly acted as if Baoyu didn't exist and gave the book in his hand to Lin Daiyu, "Miss Lin, let's go to the hall to practice the first style, and I will also teach you the breathing visualization method—for the sake of your own life, and for the sake of your Lin family descendants, take good care of your body."
"Anyone who wants to learn can learn, but it's just for strengthening the body with the Five Animals Play." Bai Lang also said when he turned around. He let out a long breath. The Rongguo Mansion was full of decay. The men in this mansion were indeed as Baoyu said, all things in the mud, and as for the women—the young girls might be saved, but people like Lady Wang were just hypocrites.
Lin Daiyu learning this was completely different from her learning literature; it was the kind that truly belonged to the white. Bai Lang sighed while helping her correct her movements, but the youngest one learned it well. This reminded Bai Lang of his few cheap younger siblings, "Forget it, forget it, you should come to my Tianshui Earl Mansion in the future and practice with my two younger sisters." ===== CHAPTER 628 =====
