Just a moment ago, the people of the Xu Clan were still lamenting Dalang's untimely death, lamenting that the Xu Clan's dream of becoming a great clan had been shattered.
But when they saw Xu Dalang really sitting up in the coffin, his legs moving faster than his brain, they all rushed to the side and watched with trepidation.
"The corpse has come back to life, your excellency Xu has really come back to life. Report it to the officials, report it to the officials …"
"What officials? Every official here is more powerful than the County Magistrate."
Noisy voices rose and fell. The people of the Xu Clan were shocked and afraid, but because of the princess and a few prominent officials in the courtyard, they were confident and did not run away.
Some people retreated in fear, while others subconsciously leaned forward, but they were afraid and confused, not knowing what was going on. For example, Xu Erlang, Xu Lingyue, Chu Caiwei, Huaiqing and others.
So itchy … Xu Qi'an felt his scalp itch, as if there were lice crawling on it.
He reached out and scratched a few times, pulling out a large piece of scalp with hair.
"Ah!!!"
The timid aunt screamed in fear and pushed Xu Lingyue, who was beside her, out as a shield.
Xu Lingyue was also scared to death. Even if it was her favorite big brother, when the coffin was suddenly opened, Lingyue's scalp tingled. She instinctively wanted to scream and run away.
But she didn't. Her face was full of tears, and her voice trembled as she cried, "Big brother, big brother, do you have any last words that you didn't say? Are you not satisfied …"
Her sister was sad and cried like a pear blossom in the rain.
After a short moment of shock and confusion, a few people in the courtyard quickly reacted and realized the real state of Xu Qi'an.
They were Princess Huaiqing, Celestial Commissioner Chu Caiwei, high-ranked Warrior Nangong Qianrou and Zhang Kaitai, and Second Uncle Xu Pingzhi.
Chu Caiwei could use Qi magic and could distinguish between the living and the dead. Thinking about what the Supervisor had said, even if she was not very smart, she understood some things.
… Is this the effect of the Reborn Body Pill? No wonder Sensei said that she gave the Rebirth Pill to Xu Qi'an, but how did Sensei know that Xu Qi'an would come back to life … And how did Xu Qi'an take the Rebirth Pill … Chu Caiwei couldn't understand.
As for Xu Pingzhi and the others, they could hear Xu Qi'an's heartbeat purely because of the Warrior's sharp hearing and sharp eyesight. They could see the slight rise and fall of Xu Qi'an's chest when he breathed.
Their expressions were different, but they had something in common — surprise and delight.
Xu Pingzhi slowly widened his eyes. His ordinary face was intertwined with ecstasy and sorrow. A man like him actually burst into tears in front of everyone.
Zhang Kaitai was excited and happy. His emotions were written all over his face. Xu Ningyan had come back to life? He came back to life?
Huaiqing, who had maintained a cold and reserved demeanor ever since she stepped into the Xu Mansion, suddenly had her plain white face soften. The joy hidden in the corners of her eyes and the tips of her eyebrows would definitely shock anyone who was familiar with her.
Nangong Qianrou had a suspicious look on his face.
Last words … Xu Qi'an's heart stirred. He remembered his aunt crying last night and saying that he was the ugliest. Thus, he said in a low, mournful, and trembling voice,
"Aunt wasn't good to me. I want her to apologize …"
His aunt burst into tears.
"Zi Buyu, Supernatural Confusion!"
Without the Warrior's sharp hearing or the Warlock's Qi Observation Technique, Xu Erlang, who was only at the Eighth Stage Body Cultivation Realm of the Confucian School, thought that his big brother had really been reborn. He took a step forward and mumbled something.
He wanted to use the embryonic power of the Confucian School's "Words Come True" to make his big brother lie down again.
"Go!"
But his father suddenly slapped him. Xu Pingzhi threw himself at the side of the coffin with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow. It was as if he was welcoming a rare treasure in the world.
"Wait."
Nangong Qianrou stopped Xu Pingzhi. He narrowed his eyes and examined Xu Qi'an, who was constantly scratching his ears and cheeks, tearing off pieces of flesh.
"His body has come back to life, but it's hard to say if he's still the same person," Nangong Qianrou sneered.
Everyone was shocked. When they thought of that strange orange cat, they immediately realized that something was wrong.
The orange cat had leaped over his body, and Xu Dalang had really come back to life. It was hard not to think that the one who had come back to life wasn't Xu Dalang, but someone else.
Nangong Qianrou, Princess Huaiqing, and the others were all experienced and knowledgeable people. Even if they hadn't seen or heard of something like a soul taking over someone else's body, they had at least heard of it.
"No, he's definitely Dalang," Xu Pingzhi's tone was firm.
There was no reason. He could only accept the fact that Dalang had come back to life. He couldn't face any other reason, nor could he bear it.
He had already been stabbed once in his heart.
"Second Uncle, it's me. I'm not dead, "Xu Qi 'an said.
Huh … why did his voice change? Xu Pingzhi's expression changed slightly.
This "Second Uncle" was spoken in a clear and masculine voice. It was much better than Dalang's voice in the past.
Second Uncle Xu's heart immediately sank. He clenched his fist and stared at his nephew who had come back to life, "How are you going to prove that you're Xu Qi 'an?"
Xu Pingzhi's questioning tone made the already doubtful crowd even more vigilant.
Luckily I don't have a mother, otherwise I'd have to prove that my mother is my mother … He complained in his heart. After a moment of silence, he said, "Green oranges are sour and astringent, but Second Uncle thinks that the skin juice has other uses."
Xu Pingzhi's face froze.
Xu Erlang still couldn't believe that his big brother had come back to life. He looked at his father, who had a strange expression, took a deep breath to calm himself down, and asked,
"Are you really my big brother?"
At this moment, Xu Qi 'an's face was a mix of tender flesh and old flesh. It was terrifying, but his eyes were deep and meaningful as he looked at his little brother. He said with emotion,
"If the heavens hadn't given birth to me, Xu Xinnian, Daibun would be like a long night."
He added in his heart, "When the women are not at home, the three of us in the Mei Pavilion."
"If the heavens hadn't given birth to me, Xu Xinnian, Daibun would be like a long night …" Hearing this, Second Uncle and Aunt were even more certain that the one who had come back to life was Xu Dalang. Because these trivial things in life were impossible to know unless one experienced it personally.
In the mourning hall, everyone's attention suddenly turned to Xu Xinnian.
In Chu Caiwei's mind, these words must not be heard by Senior Brother Yang. Otherwise, she and her fellow Celestial Commissioner's senior and junior brothers would probably have to go through a cycle of brainwashing every day.
"This is comparable to that idiot Yang Qianhuan's idiosyncrasy …" Nangong Qianrou and Zhang Kaitai frowned. They felt that this scholar's tone was too arrogant. Warrior couldn't stand to hear arrogant and despotic propaganda.
Princess Huaiqing didn't say anything, but she looked at Xu Xinnian with a meaningful gaze.
"…"
Xu Erlang's handsome face turned red, and even the tips of his ears turned red. These words were heard by his family members, and they were shameful and embarrassed. His big brother recited them in front of so many outsiders. This sense of shame had exceeded the limit of what he could bear at his age.
He couldn't wait to push his big brother away, lie in the coffin, and end it all.
"Phew …"
Seeing that his son had become the focus of everyone's attention, Second Uncle Xu heaved a sigh of relief and was somewhat happy.
"It's really big brother!" Xu Lingyue cheered and threw herself at him. She hugged her brother's neck and sobbed.
"Big pot, big pot …" Xu Lingyin was overjoyed. He stood by the coffin and jumped up and down, opening his arms, hoping that his big brother could hug him.
But Xu Dalang hugged his sister's soft body and comforted her, completely ignoring the little bean.
Xu Pingzhi also came forward excitedly and hugged his daughter and nephew. He hugged them tightly, afraid that once he relaxed, they would be gone again.
Xu Erlang raised his head to stop the tears from rolling down from his eyes. He would never do such a pretentious act in front of everyone.
"Hmph!"
Aunt's sharp white chin swung and turned her head away, her face full of disdain. But then, she covered her mouth and cried again.
Nangong Qianrou calmly looked at the dead flesh that had fallen off. It was not dead skin, but pieces of dead flesh. He frowned and asked:
"How did you come back to life?"
"I didn't die at all …" Xu Qi'an was just about to explain when he heard Chu Caiwei raise her hand. The beauty with an oval face and big eyes said crisply:
"Did you eat the Reborn Pill I gave you?"
Xu Qi'an was slightly stunned, but recovered in an instant. He cooperated and made a gesture of gratitude: "Miss Caiwei's great kindness, Xu Ningyan will never forget it. I can't wait to repay you with my body."
"Bah!"
Chu Caiwei blushed. In fact, she was a little ashamed. Cute foodies were not good at lying and had a strong moral bottom line.
Unlike Xu Qi'an, who was a liar and had poor skills in fish farming. He almost drowned in the small pond several times.
Xu Qi'an looked at the crowd, knowing that they needed an explanation. He pondered for a moment and said:
"On the day of the rebellion in Yunzhou, the rebels besieged the Administrative Commissioner. The governor and others were in danger. I knew that the battle was unpredictable. Thinking of the Reborn Pill given by Miss Caiwei, I took a gamble … Haha, the situation was critical at that time and I had no choice.
"The governor must have thought that I died in the battle and made such a big mistake."
Reborn Pill, so that's what it was … Nangong Qianrou and others nodded in understanding.
Huaiqing looked at Xu Pingzhi and others who were still confused and said lightly: "The Reborn Pill is an elixir refined by the Celestial Commissioner Supervisor. Taking this pill is like a cicada spinning a cocoon, shedding the old body and giving birth to a new one.
"Even if you are fatally injured, you can break the cocoon and become a butterfly, and get a new body."
The effect of the Reborn Pill is to use the old body as nourishment to breed a new body. Just like a cicada turning into a butterfly.
There are also many shortcomings, such as "expensive" and harsh conditions. The effect of the pill will take effect after an hour, and the person who takes the pill must die after an hour. If you don't die, it will force you to die.
It can easily lead to the tragedy of sending your head from a thousand miles away.
If your head is cut off or you die on the spot, the Reborn Pill can't save you.
In short, when your life is hanging by a thread, the effect of the pill will take effect.
Nangong Qianrou and others who knew the effect of the Reborn Pill could only sigh at Xu Qi 'an's luck.
From the Xu family's point of view, the reason why Dalang could come back from the dead was because Miss Caiwei, the Celestial Commissioner, gave him the elixir.
"Miss Caiwei, I can't thank you enough." Xu Pingzhi cupped his fists and said:
"Dalang owes you a life. In the future, you just need to tell him what to do. If he is not willing, as his second uncle, I will tie him up."
You didn't do anything and you earned my life. Damn, Chu Caiwei is the main character model … Xu Qi 'an cooperated and cupped his fists, thanking her profusely.
"Okay, Lingyue, help your brother out. A living person shouldn't lie in a coffin all the time. It's bad luck." Xu Pingzhi was in a good mood.
"Okay." Xu Lingyue responded, but she didn't help her brother immediately. Instead, she helped him peel off the dried flesh on his face.
After peeling off the skin on his face and head, Xu Qi 'an felt a coolness on his forehead. His heart suddenly thumped. It's over, the beautiful hair that I've grown for twenty years was destroyed.
Immediately, he found Xu Lingyue looking at him in a daze.
"What's wrong with my face?" Xu Qi 'an's heart sank, and he quickly touched his face.
Xu Lingyue's beautiful little face was flushed, and she lowered her head in silence.
Xu Qi 'an had to step out of the coffin himself, and faced Huaiqing, Nangong Qianrou, and the others. Then, he clearly saw that they were all stunned.
The Xu Qi 'an in front of him could be said to have perfect facial lines. He had the masculinity of a man, thick eyebrows, a high nose, a pair of bright eyes, and the curve and shape of his lips were just right.
His facial features hadn't changed, but they were more exquisite and perfect.
This, this is the boy I raised? Aunt's rosy little mouth was slightly open, and she stared at Xu Qi 'an in disbelief.
Nangong Qianrou snorted.
Chu Caiwei, who hadn't yet awakened her love, couldn't help but look at him a few more times. She felt that the reborn Xu Ningyan had become even more good-looking.
Princess Huaiqing's gaze stopped on his face for a few seconds, and then she slightly turned her head, as if she was deceiving herself.
"Big brother is so good-looking." Xu Lingyin said happily. Although her big brother didn't hug her, her love for her big brother would never change.
"I was like this when I was young," the second uncle Xu said happily.
After saying that, seeing the whole family silently looking at him, the second uncle Xu suddenly felt a little awkward, and added, "Almost, almost …"
"Dalang didn't die?"
An old man from the Xu family shouted from afar.
The second uncle Xu immediately went over, and told the family the good news of Xu Dalang's resurrection, as well as the reason.
The Xu family then realized that it wasn't a zombie, and Xu Dalang didn't die at all. It was the miracle medicine of the Celestial Commissioner that saved him from the dead.
The commoners in Jing City were no strangers to the Celestial Commissioner. Many medicine shops and medical centers in the city were the Celestial Commissioner's businesses. In order to cultivate, ninth rank warlocks would go to the medical centers every few days, and their medical skills were superb and cheap.
After the explanation, the Celestial Commissioner pulled Xu Qi 'an along and bowed to the elders. The Xu family was also very happy. The resurrection of a member of the younger generation was a joyous event in itself. Moreover, after seeing Xu Qi 'an's potential and connections, the family naturally hoped that he would climb higher and higher.
In an instant, the funeral was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
After comforting the family, Xu Qi 'an saw off the two Jinluo, Chu Caiwei, and Princess Huaiqing, and then turned to go to the bathroom.
The Xu family stayed in Xu Manor, and helped with the funeral arrangements.
…
After filling the bathtub with water, Xu Qi 'an put his hands on the edge of the bathtub, and looked down at the face reflected in the water.
"Handsome, this is what it feels like, even if it's still a little different from my previous life." Xu Qi 'an slapped the table in praise.
At this point, his facial features were still the same as before, but much more refined and perfect, making him even more handsome.
Lying down in the cold water, Xu Qi 'an moaned in comfort, then rubbed his bald head in melancholy.
At this point, an orange cat pushed open the door, walked elegantly, and walked into the bathroom with its tail raised.
"Tsk, I've long heard that the Pill of Reincarnation was extraordinary, and now that I've seen it, it truly lives up to its reputation. To be able to turn the ordinary you into a valiant hero "
So in the Daoist priest's heart, I'm also nothing but an ordinary gong … Xu Qi 'an felt a bit sad, so he said:
"The Daoist priest has developed a bad habit of sleeping with cats"
"Don't mind such a small matter" the Jinlian Taoist priest raised his paw and tapped the ground.
The orange cat jumped onto the stool used to store clean clothes next to the bathtub, sat down, and spoke in human language:
"From the very beginning, I didn't believe that you would die in the line of duty, so when I heard about your funeral today, I came to take a look. As expected, although there is no vitality in your body, there is clearly a slight fluctuation of your Primordial Spirit. "
This slight fluctuation of Primordial Spirit could not be sensed by Warrior, only the Taoist disciples who cultivated the Yin Spirit could sense it.
"I will hold you for a while, so that your Sun Primordial Spirit can quickly return."
"Thank you, Daoist priest."
Xu Qi 'an thanked him sincerely. If it weren't for the Daoist priest who flew up and roared, it would be meaningless even if he came back from the dead.
Sure enough, the Heavens help the worthy, and the owner of the fish pond is blessed by the Heavens.
"But Miaozhen said that there is no fluctuation of Primordial Spirit in your body, so you died completely," the Jinlian Taoist priest said.
Is this how you use the word 'completely'? Xu Qi 'an pondered:
"On the way back from Yunzhou to the capital, I didn't feel anything, and only regained consciousness last night."
What he meant was that the slight fluctuation of Primordial Spirit only appeared recently, and it was a sign of recovery.
The Jinlian Taoist priest nodded, then lowered his head and pressed his paw on the fragment of the Book of the Earth. He clicked his tongue and said, "Wei Yuan didn't take back the fragment."
Was Wei Yuan fishing? Xu Qi 'an was stunned, and then he heard the Jinlian Taoist priest continue:
"However, letting you join the Heaven & Earth Society was just a casual move for him. A good strategist has a far-reaching plan. After you died, he might have been a little discouraged, and was unwilling to get involved in the affairs of the Heaven & Earth Society anymore. It doesn't matter whether the fragment of the Book of the Earth is buried with you or taken away by me. "
"Taoist priest, you and Wei Yuan really have a tacit understanding, but I'm still a little embarrassed to expose my identity as a two-faced snitch in front of me …" Xu Qi 'an laughed dryly.
"By the way, can you not tell Li Miaozhen about my resurrection?" Xu Qi 'an fiddled with the water.
The Jinlian Taoist priest stared at him with his amber cat eyes, "Be honest, young man."
Damn it, who hasn't bragged on the Internet before … When I was shopping, I liked to pretend to be a highly educated person. My catchphrase was: Thank you, I'm in America, and I just got off the plane.
Xu Qi 'an laughed dryly again, and remembered what happened in Yunzhou. He asked, "Taoist priest, there are traces of a warlock behind the Yunzhou case, and it's at least a Level 3 warlock. How much do you know about the Celestial Commissioner? "
He told the Jinlian Taoist priest about the mysterious warlock in the Yunzhou case.
The Jinlian Taoist priest quickly understood what Xu Qi 'an meant, and said, "The Celestial Commissioner only has a Level 3 warlock called Sun Xuanji.
"But I don't think he's the warlock in Yunzhou. It's someone else."
"Who?" Xu Qi 'an quickly asked.
The Jinlian Taoist priest glanced at him, "Do you think I'll know?"
What use do I have for you? Xu Qi 'an laughed, "In my heart, Taoist priest has always been a wise elder. You know everything in heaven and earth."
He's still an old silver coin.
The Jinlian Taoist priest shook his head, and corrected him, "It's the warlock who knows everything in heaven and earth, and it's the Confucian who knows everything.
"However, the Supervisor must know the background of that warlock, but no one can guess what that old thing is thinking."
After that, the Jinlian Taoist priest examined Xu Qi 'an, and said, "Your Qi and blood are several times more vigorous, and you're full of spirit. Compared to when you left the capital, you've improved a lot. The effect of the Pill of Regeneration is extraordinary. "
But it's too expensive … the Jinlian Taoist priest thought regretfully.
"I was just lucky to enter the Spirit Ascension realm in three months. My aptitude is stupid, my aptitude is stupid." Xu Qi 'an said modestly.
The orange cat turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence, "Go find Wei Yuan. You can't buy the resources of the Copper Skin and Iron Bone realm even if you go bankrupt, but he can give them to you."
After taking a bath and changing into dry clothes, Xu Qi 'an rode out of the mansion and went straight to the Night Watchman's office.
