Chapter 77 - Wake Up
Zhao Chen felt like he had dreamt for a very long time! He was lost in his dreams, and could not see anything clearly! He felt like he was in a fog, and his body was warm. The coldness in his body was gradually dispelled, and the pain in his body was also gradually relieved! Originally, his meridians and organs were all damaged, but now the damage was slowly being healed!
Finally, after an unknown period of time, Zhao Chen opened his eyes!
When he opened his eyes, he discovered that he was indeed in a "white fog". He couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his eyes. Only then did he realize that this "white fog" was actually formed from water vapor!
He was in a huge and spacious palace. Countless wooden basins were placed in the palace and there were countless hot water in them. It was the steam emitted by the hot water that made the place seem like it was in the fog!
"Hey!" My body seems to have really recovered! " Suddenly, Zhao Chen let out a soft cry!
Just now in the 'dream', his body no longer felt cold, and he no longer felt pain! When he woke up now, he realized that all of this was real! His body was no longer ice-cold and in pain!
"Your Highness, are you feeling better?" Suddenly, a voice rang out!
Zhao Chen was startled, he anxiously looked forward, only then did he see a cultivator sitting cross-legged not far from him!
This Daoist Priest was very young, around 20 years old. The Daoist Priest's face gave off a very "peaceful" feeling. One could tell from his face that he was a person with a gentle temperament! The Daoist Priest's appearance was not bad, but his face was extremely pale, as if he was abnormally tired.
"Who are you?" Zhao Chen said.
"This humble one, Wang Zhe, pays his respects to Your Highness!" The Daoist Priest smiled and said.
"Did you save me?" After a moment, Zhao Chen reacted and said suddenly.
The Taoist called Wang Zhe nodded! However, he seemed to be too tired. At this moment, his body was on the verge of collapse!
Zhao Chen jumped in shock. He stood up, walked to Wang Zhe's side and supported him. Then he said: "What happened to you?"
"I've washed His Highness' bones and shaved your hair, and exhausted all of your energy. You only need to recuperate for a short period of time!" Wang Zhe said.
"Where is this place? Still in the Han Palace? " Zhao Chen said.
"That's right!" Li Gang, Zhe Keqiu, Wang De and the rest are right outside! Wang Zhe said.
"Thank you, Taoist!" A few days ago, when Li Gang came to see me, he said that it was Wang De and Yue Fei who went to invite a Daoist, and it seems to be you! " Zhao Chen said.
"This Penniless Priest!" Wang Zhe laughed.
At this moment, Zhao Chen had an exceptionally strange feeling. He felt that he no longer felt like he was before, as if he had been reborn and changed into another person! Now, his whole body felt incredibly light. He raised his hand and discovered that it was abnormally white, like a baby's hand. This startled him! He discovered that his eyes had once again become very bright, much brighter than before! He had just heard the Daoist priest say 'Purification of one's quills', and now he thought to himself that this must be the effect of the so-called 'Purification of one's quills'!
"This Penniless Priest descended the mountain for the sake of cultivation! Rebirth was cultivation, and entering society was also cultivation! Since I have come into this world, I shall rest in it! Your Highness' fate is weird. I want to follow you and observe you! " Wang Zhe said.
"That's easy!" Zhao Chen laughed, he did not expect Wang Zhe to propose such a strange request!
"Your Highness, in order to wash your marrows and cut your feathers, I will first dissolve all of your power!" All the internal energy that you worked hard to cultivate in the past has completely disappeared! " Wang Zhe said.
"This is nothing!" Zhao Chen was startled at first, but then laughed.
He had experienced it from the moment he died until now, and he no longer cared about internal energy! As long as he could live well, it was better than anything else!
"His Highness the Crown Prince is open-minded and open-minded. I didn't even finish what I was saying just now, and the inner strength that you used to cultivate has been completely melted. However, now you have the inner strength that I've painstakingly cultivated for many years! " Wang Zhe said.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Zhao Chen was shocked, he used his mind to feel the condition of his body, and sure enough, he discovered that the Emperor's Heavenly Arts in his body had disappeared, adding an extremely long burst of Inner Qi! This internal force was vastly different from the Emperor's Heavenly Arts, and the meridians that they walked in were also vastly different! Moreover, this internal force seemed to be much stronger than the internal force he had previously cultivated!
"First, this Penniless Priest cleansed you of your impurities. Now, you have this Penniless Priest's internal energy! Come to think of it, you are already this poor man's disciple! Therefore, my second request is that you take me as your master! Learn my martial arts! " Wang Zhe said.
"This..." Zhao Chen was startled for a moment, he then knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "Greetings, teacher!"
Since someone had saved his life and transferred his internal energy into his body, then he might as well take someone else as his master! Only, Zhao Chen did not know the cultivation level of this Spirit Dao cultivator! However, he couldn't care less now!
"For the sake of helping you cleanse your marrow and shed feathers, all the internal energy I've cultivated since I was young has already been crippled!" However, to be able to accept a crown prince as his disciple! That's worth it! " Wang Zhe sighed softly and said.
"What did you say?" Your internal energy has been completely destroyed? " Zhao Chen was stunned!
He originally thought that Wang Zhe would only exhaust his energy and would recover after a while. He never thought that Wang Zhe would actually completely cripple his cultivation! Although he did not know how profound Wang Zhe's cultivation had been in the past, but since he was young, he has always been working hard to cultivate! In order to save him, he had paid a huge price!
"Thank you, teacher!" Zhao Chen's expression turned solemn, he knelt down again!
"If you want to learn martial arts from me, I can teach you slowly in the future!" The court officials were still waiting outside. They must be feeling anxious! Open the door and let them in! " Wang Zhe said.
Zhao Chen nodded and headed towards the door!
Li Gang, Zhe Keqiu, Wang De, Li Ruoshui, Wang Gui, and the others had been waiting outside for a long time, and it was already dusk! It was at this moment that they finally heard the sound of footsteps!
A moment later, the doors to the palace were opened and a young man appeared before them!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Seeing the youth's face, Li Gang could not help but exclaim emotionally! The rest of the people also exclaimed in excitement!
"Teacher!" My lords! " Zhao Chen laughed.
His heart was also filled with excitement. He had originally thought that he would never see these people again! Who would have thought that after just a few days, his body would be completely healed! There was actually someone who healed their own body!
"Your Highness, are you really done?" Li Gang said in disbelief.
"Alright!" I feel very good right now! "It's much better than it used to be!" Zhao Chen laughed.
Li Gang carefully sized Zhao Chen up, and slowly, his eyes revealed surprise and joy! Originally, when Zhao Chen had been poisoned by the poison a few days ago, his face turned deathly gray, but now, Zhao Chen's face turned as white as jade! Zhao Chen's hair had originally turned gray, but now it was completely black! Zhao Chen's eyes also recovered their luster, becoming abnormally bright!
"That's great! That's great! God bless my Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and let the crown prince be safe and sound! " Li Gang could not hold back her tears!
, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, Li Ruoshui and the others were extremely excited, they even knelt down and kowtowed to the sky, thanking the heavens!
At the very end, Li Gang also kneeled down, and Zhe Keqiu had no choice but to kneel down! The guards outside also knelt down and kowtowed to the heavens!
After a long while, everyone finally stood up. Everyone had an excited expression on their faces!
In the past few days, they had been extremely worried. They were afraid that Zhao Chen would not be able to wake up, afraid that Zhao Chen would die! Now that Zhao Chen had woken up, how could they not be happy!
"We have to thank this Wang Zhenren! Without him, His Highness the Crown Prince would never be able to recover! " Li Gang was crying just now, but now he wiped away his tears and laughed.
"I have already taken the Wang Zhenren as my master!" Zhao Chen said.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Li Gang stood there blankly, after a moment, he hesitated and said: "Your Highness, this Wang Zhenren is a person of the martial arts world, you are a Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty, using your identity as a disciple of the martial arts world, I am afraid that it is inappropriate!"
"He saved my life! I asked him if he had any requests, and if he asked me to acknowledge him as my teacher, would I refuse? " Zhao Chen said indifferently.
Li Gang was quiet for a moment, and in the end, nodded his head!
As for Zhe Keqiu, he was looking down on him in his heart. In his eyes, that Taoist must be greedy for wealth! The Daoist Priest did not ask for gold or silver treasures, but only wanted to become the Crown Prince's master. When the Crown Prince ascended the throne in the future, this Daoist Priest would become the master of the Son of Heaven.
"This Daoist Priest does have some ability!" It was a pity that he was completely muddle-headed! What he doesn't know is that the crown prince is just a little brat that I, Zhe Keqiu, am holding in my hands! I wanted to seize the heavens and subdue the dukes, that's why I wanted to save him! This Taoist really treated him as a crown prince! Laughable! " Zhe Keqiu's mouth revealed a taunting expression!
Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, Wang De and the rest did not think much about it, in their view, this Taoist had saved Zhao Chen's life, and that was a great kindness to Zhao Chen! It was normal for the crown prince to acknowledge others as his master since they had done a great service to him!
As Zhao Chen was talking to these people, he suddenly felt light-headed, as if he was about to faint! Li Gang who was at the side saw that something was amiss, and anxiously helped Zhao Chen up!
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Li Gang said anxiously.
Just then, a voice came from the palace, "The crown prince has been ill for a long time and has just recovered. Even though his body was reborn and his bones have been washed away, he is still extremely weak! Prepare some porridge for the crown prince and let him rest for the night. Then, we can discuss other matters later! "
It turned out that the Taoist called Wang Zhe had already stood up and went outside! His face was still abnormally pale, and he did not sound angry! Wang De anxiously walked forward and helped Wang Zhe up!
Immediately, Li Gang, Zhe Keqiu and the rest ordered the guards to prepare porridge! After Zhao Chen finished eating, he indeed felt abnormally exhausted! As he lay on the bed, he actually fell asleep in a daze! Li Gang, Zhe Keqiu and the rest did not leave the Han Palace tonight, but waited outside the Dry Clear Palace!
