After an unknown amount of time, Ye Fan slowly opened his eyes.
At this time, it was already noon, and the bright sunlight pierced his eyes painfully. He raised his head slightly and used his hand to block the sunlight. Then he blinked his eyes and tried his best to adjust to the light. When he saw his surroundings, he suddenly remembered everything that had happened last night.
"Chiko!" Ye Fan ignored the intense pain in the back of his head and struggled to get up from the ground. He pulled out the Snake Shadow Sword from his waist and staggered into the room.
The room was very messy and a complete mess. Ye Fan did not care about this. He was most worried about where Chiko was and how she was doing. However, the sword case on the ground and Chiko's sword on the side told him that something had happened to Fujiwara No Chiko!
The pool of blood on the ground made him even more shocked!
"Chiko! Chiko! " Ye Fan screamed Fujiwara No Chiko's name as he crazily searched for Fujiwara No Chiko's shadow.
But he searched everywhere and did not find Fujiwara No Chiko's shadow.
"Chiko, Chiko." Ye Fan muttered as he searched the room again. "Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss." Ye Fan's mind was on the verge of collapse and he was even a little delirious, "Wife, wife, come out quickly. Don't make a fuss."
But no matter how he shouted or said, Fujiwara No Chiko still did not appear in front of him.
"Chiko … Chiko …" Ye Fan's lips trembled as he muttered to himself. With a plop, he fell to the ground. The wound on the back of his head was torn open again and blood slowly seeped out. Ye Fan fainted again in the courtyard.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already evening. He slowly sat up and sat there with a dull gaze. After a long time, Ye Fan let out a heart-wrenching cry.
"Ahhh …" Ye Fan screamed at the sky!
After shouting, he began to cry like a child.
Ever since he was young, he had never been as sad as he was now, nor had he ever cried like this. He felt like he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead. His mind kept replaying Fujiwara No Chiko's voice and smile, and there was still the scent of Fujiwara No Chiko on his body. He hoped that this was just a dream, and that when he woke up, Fujiwara No Chiko would still be by his side, pestering him and sticking to him. However, the piercing pain in the back of his head told him that this was not a dream, but a reality that could not be real.
Ye Fan cried for four whole hours. He cried until tears of blood began to seep out of his eyes. He cried until his throat could no longer make any sound.
At this time, it was already late at night. He stopped crying and sat there in a daze, like a stone statue.
After another two hours passed, Ye Caifan slowly got up from the ground. He patted the dust off his body, picked up the Snake Shadow Sword on the ground, and put it back on his waist. Then, he walked into the room.
After entering the room, he picked up Fujiwara No Chiko's scabbard and put the Chihō Blade back into the scabbard. Then, he picked up a deformed and dirty pastry from the ground and began to eat it. After eating, he grabbed the half-broken teapot on the ground and poured the remaining tea into his mouth. Then, he tore a piece of cloth from the bed and wrapped the wound on the back of his head.
After wrapping the wound, Ye Fan began to carefully examine the room. He first looked at the wall that was completely cut through. Touching it with his hand, he found that the wall was completely penetrated. This scar was clearly caused by Fujiwara No Chiko's Chihō Blade.
After looking at the scar, he began to examine the other traces of a fight in the room.
There was only one trace of a fight in the room. It seemed that Fujiwara No Chiko had already seen through the fake Ye Kong and attacked him. However, she was restrained by the fake Ye Kong in one move and was heavily injured. Because the blood was in a circle, it was obvious that it came from her mouth. If the blood was caused by a weapon, it would be in a line shape.
After examining all of this, Ye Fan came to three conclusions. First, the fake Fujiwara No Chiko obviously didn't kill her, because it wouldn't take much effort to take away her corpse. Second, the fake Fujiwara No Chiko's cultivation was very high. Even he couldn't do that. Moreover, the fake Fujiwara No Chiko's target was Fujiwara No Chiko, nothing else. The Snake Shadow Sword on his body, Fujiwara No Chiko's Chihō Blade, and the Blood Phoenix on his neck were all divine weapons and cultivation treasures. The fake Chihō ignored them. From this, it was clear that the fake Fujiwara No Chiko's purpose was to kidnap Fujiwara No Chiko.
After analyzing all of this, Ye Fan began to sit cross-legged on the bed, preparing to circulate his spiritual power to the back of his head to heal his injuries. Chiko was still alive, which calmed him down immediately.
He made up his mind to heal his injuries first, and then go find Chiko. However, when he began to circulate his spiritual power, he was shocked to find that the spiritual power in his Sea of Qi was less than ten percent. Because the Yuzhen acupoint on the back of his head was injured, all the meridians in his body were damaged. The direct result was that the spiritual power in his Sea of Qi collapsed and dispersed into the air with his breathing. If he had woken up a little later, his Sea of Qi would have been empty.
Helpless, Ye Fan could only open all the pores in his body again to absorb the spiritual power from the outside world and began to breathe in and out, gathering his Qi again.
However, when he closed his eyes, all he could see was Fujiwara No Chiko's shadow.
He couldn't calm down at all.
However, when he thought of Fujiwara No Chiko being seriously injured and in prison, waiting for him to rescue her, he clenched his teeth and forced himself to calm down.
The most important thing for him now was to recover his spiritual power, then find Fujiwara No Chiko and cut the person who was pretending to be his father who injured him and Fujiwara No Chiko into pieces!
He used three days to recover fifty percent of his spiritual power. He didn't absorb the spiritual power from the Blood Phoenix because he wanted to leave the spiritual power on it for Fujiwara No Chiko. Fujiwara No Chiko was seriously injured and needed spiritual power more than him.
In these three days, other than eating and going to the bathroom, he only did one thing, which was to gather his Qi. Fortunately, this house had been sealed by the imperial court, so no one came to disturb him.
At first, he rested for two hours every day, but later, he didn't rest anymore. This was because when he fell asleep, he would dream of Fujiwara No Chiko. Every time, he would wake up from his dream. Later, he simply stopped sleeping.
After three days, he had lost a lot of weight. His face was full of stubble, and he was a completely different person from before.
On the morning of the fourth day, Ye Fan who was sitting cross-legged opened his eyes. He got up and went to the kitchen.
Compared to the other places, the kitchen was not messed up. Ye Fan found a cold braised chicken and started to eat it in big bites.
No matter what, he had to recover his physical strength first. After eating, Ye Fan felt tired. He hadn't slept for three days. If he wanted to recover his physical strength, he had to sleep. However, he was thinking about Fujiwara No Chiko, so he couldn't fall asleep. Helplessly, he stretched out his right hand and suddenly hit the sleeping acupuncture point on his neck. Then his body fell down and he fell into a deep sleep.
He slept for a whole day until it was dark. Then he slowly woke up. He got up and moved his body. He felt that he had recovered eighty percent of his physical strength.
Seeing that he had more or less recovered, Ye Fan returned to the main room. He carried Fujiwara No Chiko's saber sheath and went to the courtyard. Using his Imperial Spirit Power, he soared into the air and went straight to his cave — — Feng Ming Mountain's Ling Yun Cave.
He had already thought about it, his father and grandfather were definitely wanted by the Imperial Court at this time, and under such circumstances, their first choice of hiding place should be his own cave. The two of them had been to his cave before, so they were familiar with the route there. If he guessed correctly, they were already on their way to Feng Ming Mountain.
The person who had disguised himself as his father and injured him. Since the person who kidnapped Chiko could transform into Ye Kong's appearance, he could definitely transform into his own appearance. If he transformed into his appearance and attacked them, they would be caught off guard! Chiko had already been kidnapped by him. He could not let his father and grandfather be deceived again.
On the other hand, Jinchan had given them a pair of Qing Fu Insects at his and Chiko's wedding banquet. These Qing Fu Insects were in pairs. Even if they were thousands of miles apart, they could still find each other. One of them was with Fujiwara No Chiko, but the other was not with Ye Fan. It was placed in the cave. Now that Chiko's whereabouts were unknown, if he wanted to find her, he would have to rely on this Qing Fu Insect.
Ye Fan was in a hurry. Along the way, he absorbed spiritual energy to replenish the spiritual energy in his Sea of Qi. The person who kidnapped Fujiwara No Chiko had an extremely high cultivation level. He should be Matsumoto Takeyoshi's subordinate. With only 50% of the spiritual energy in his Sea of Qi, Ye Fan was not confident that he could defeat the opponent. Therefore, Ye Fan seized every opportunity to continuously absorb spiritual energy and circulate his Great Cycle of Qi to purify the spiritual energy and store it in his Sea of Qi.
He used less than six hours to reach Feng Ming Mountain. He slowly withdrew his spiritual energy and landed at the entrance of the Lingyun Cave. Thinking about how he and Fujiwara No Chiko had left happily, but now he was the only one who had returned here, Ye Fan's heart was torn apart again. He was now regretting it. If he had stayed with Fujiwara No Chiko in the Lingyun Cave, so many things would not have happened.
Ye Fan thought about it. With a wave of his hand, he opened the cave door and walked into the cave.
Everything in the cave was the same as before. There were exotic flowers and herbs, tall bamboo and tall pine trees, pavilions and terraces.
Ye Fan was not in the mood to appreciate it. He directly returned to the stone room and put down the knife case. Then, he took out the bamboo tube that Jinchan had given him from the stone box beside the bed.
Inside the bamboo tube was the Qing Fu Insect. Ye Fan put the bamboo tube into his arms and put Fujiwara No Chiko's knife case into the stone cabinet. Then, he directly walked out of the stone room and quickly came to the cave entrance.
There was no time to lose. Things would change if he delayed. He must immediately set off to find Fujiwara No Chiko.
Ye Fan went out of the cave entrance. After closing the cave door, he took out the bamboo tube and opened the stopper. A green flying insect the size of a fingernail immediately flew out of the tube. After it came out, it stopped in the air for a while and then immediately flew into the sky.
Ye Fan did not dare to be negligent. He immediately leaped into the air and followed closely behind this Qing Fu Insect. The Qing Fu Insect's speed was not slow. Fortunately, Ye Fan already had night vision. Otherwise, if it were someone else, they would have lost track of it. Just like that, the man and the insect flew straight towards the South at high speed.
In less than an hour, the Qing Fu Insect, which was flying at a constant speed, suddenly accelerated. Ye Fan's eyes lit up and he was happy. It seemed that at this time, they were not far from Fujiwara No Chiko. He immediately increased his speed and followed behind. He could not wait to see his beloved wife.
The Qing Fu Insect flew at high speed for 30 minutes. After that, it began to reduce its altitude and flew towards the ground. Ye Fan looked down and found that he had come to a small town in the south. Looking from the sky, this town was not big. At most, there were a few hundred families. Because it was late at night, the whole town was extremely quiet. Occasionally, a few wild dogs barked a few times.
The Green Beetle sped up its descent again and flew directly toward a large mansion. After Ye Fan saw it, he immediately increased his speed. He reached out and caught the Qing Fu Insect in his hand. Then, he took out the bamboo tube and put the Qing Fu Insect into the bamboo tube. He already knew the specific location of Fujiwara No Chiko, so he did not need the Qing Fu Insect to lead the way. If he let the Qing Fu Insect fly into the house, he was afraid that it would attract other people's attention.
After Ye Fan put the bamboo tube into his arms, he withdrew his spiritual power and gently landed on a big tree in the backyard of the house. He transferred his spiritual power to his eyes and carefully observed the house.
His beloved wife was in this house. Although she was close, it was difficult to see her. Because Ye Fan knew that since Fujiwara No Chiko was in this house, then the master who disguised himself as his father, injured him, and kidnapped his beloved wife must be here. He must be very careful. He could not be careless.
This house was very big. The inner and outer houses together covered an area of five or six acres. And there were many rooms. There were almost a dozen rooms in the east wing, west wing, front and back rooms.
After seeing the house clearly, Ye Fan transferred his spiritual power to his ears. Just like when he saved Xiao Zhao on the Great Snow Mountain, he wanted to directly use his hearing to find the location of Fujiwara No Chiko.
