Chapter 53

"Hey, Master of the House, your hair, your hair?" When the first ray of sunlight leaped from the horizon, a sudden exclamation came from the parents' room, from Mother Mi Jiangxue.

"What's wrong with my hair?"

"It's black, it's turned black! The white hair at your temples has all turned black overnight." Mi Jiangxue's voice was filled with surprise and joy.

Feeling his temples, Ye Tiancheng was suddenly stunned, staring blankly at his wife Mi Jiangxue, and couldn't help but rub his eyes several times. "Am I dreaming?" After saying that, Ye Tiancheng pinched his thigh hard.

"What's wrong, what's wrong, what's really wrong?" Mi Jiangxue asked with a tense face.

"At eighteen, your skin, it's changed... it's like when you first married me at eighteen." Ye Tiancheng stared at his wife, his heart pounding wildly.

"What, really?" Mi Jiangxue exclaimed, jumping out of bed barefoot and rushing to the mirror, where she immediately froze.

Is the person in the mirror, with skin as smooth and lustrous as a young girl, really me?

Staring at the mirror for a while, Mi Jiangxue asked in a daze, "Master of the House, is this real? Am I not dreaming?"

"Of course it's real, have you forgotten the miraculous pills our son gave us?" After answering, Ye Tiancheng became puzzled. He had also stayed at Qiyun Sect, and the Bone Washing Pill was precious, but it wasn't precious enough to make someone ten years younger overnight, right?

Getting out of bed, Ye Tiancheng stretched lazily as usual, his muscles bulging. With a slight effort, the blood qi, like pearls, suddenly surged from his dantian, flowing out from his palms, making a slapping sound as it hit the air.

Ye Tiancheng was instantly stunned!

Cultivation!

Third stage Blood Cultivation!

Previously, his original fourth stage Blood Cultivation had fallen to the second stage due to the decline of blood qi and lack of nourishment. Now, overnight, it had recovered to the third stage!

In the courtyard, Ye Zhen, who was practicing boxing, smiled at his parents' shouts and calls.

Last night, he had each of his parents take a Bone Washing Pill and helped them absorb the medicine. Before going to bed, he added a drop of stone marrow spirit liquid to the tea he gave them.

Unexpectedly, it took effect overnight, and the results were extremely astonishing!

"Come, son, spar with your father!" As he spoke, Father Ye Tiancheng rushed out of the room, shouting, and pounced on Ye Zhen.

Seeing this, Ye Zhen smiled slightly, suppressed his strength, and with a flick of his palms, moved forward to meet him.

For the next four or five days, Ye Zhen did not go out, staying at home to help his parents recover. Each day, he gave them a drop of stone marrow spirit liquid and a Bone Washing Pill. Father Ye Tiancheng also took a large number of Blood Essence Pills.

Ye Zhen had obtained many Blood Pills, and now, the Blood Essence Pills were of no use to him, so he gave them all to his father.

In just five short days, Ye Tiancheng's cultivation not only fully recovered to the fourth stage of Blood Cultivation but also improved.

Of course, Ye Zhen did not slack off in his own cultivation. Apart from spending time with his parents, he spent most of his time practicing the Lightning Leopard Fist and the Inch Step Collapse Fist.

Even with the detailed guidance left by Tu Fangye, and following the experience and insights left by Tu Fangye step by step, Ye Zhen had practiced for many days before he found the common point of force for the Lightning Leopard Fist and the Inch Step Collapse Fist,勉强地将雷豹电光拳与寸步崩拳的崩劲融合到一起。

但是，这种融合并不是每次都能成功，打出十几拳，也许只有两三拳能打出崩劲。

院子里，二十根木桩随意地立在叶真的周围，叶真微闭着双眸，全身似松未松，脑海中，雷豹崩拳一次又一次地演练着，体悟着两种不同拳法之间的共同发力点。

脑海中的雷豹崩拳结束的刹那，叶真的眼睛陡地一睁，突地动了。

哗哗哗哗哗！

雷豹崩拳施展开来，出拳速度有若闪电一般，院中立时幻出了几十条臂膀，仿佛几十条手臂在同时出拳一般。

拳影在击出的刹那，就倏地轰至，仿佛给人一种有若电光的错觉。

一刹那间，叶真身形如电，叶真击出了二十拳，每一拳，都击中院中立着的一根木桩，击中的刹那，有的拳影诡异的涨大了一圈，有的，却是没有任何变化。

砰砰砰砰！

爆裂声响成一片，二十根木桩几乎根根被打爆，但是爆开的情形却是不同的。有的木桩，直接爆碎成一地，有的，却只是断成了两截。

扫了一眼，叶真满意的点了点头，二十根木桩中，十一根木桩直接爆成两截，有九根，却是碎成了无数碎片，这就是雷豹崩拳成功的标志。

“接近五成的成功率，看来，这些天的苦修还是有结果的。”叶真满意的点了点头，所谓熟能生巧，只要他坚持下去，用不了多久，这雷豹电光拳与寸步崩拳融合之后的雷豹崩拳的成功率，就能达到十成十。

院门一响，叶真的母亲米江雪却急匆匆地回来了，而且脸色很不好看。

叶真有些纳闷，母亲米江雪这几天天天向外跑，神神秘秘的，不知道在做什么，前几天还一脸的喜色，今天这是怎么了？

“娘，你这是？”

“没什么？真儿，我去跟你爹商量点事……”

正说话间，门口就传来敲门声，不等叶真去开，来人就推开了大门，自行走了进来，走进来的，还不止一个人。

当先走进来的，是一个风韵犹存的妇人，身后，跟着四个家丁，每个家丁，都挑着一个担子。

“于夫人，你……你……这是干什么？”见到跟进来的那个妇人，米江雪的脸色骤地变得非常难看。

“叶家嫂子，刚才该说的都说了，今天，我们就把这事给办了。”那于夫人说道。

“你……你们怎么能这样呢？”米江雪急了，“彩礼都收了快半年了，你们怎么能说毁婚就毁婚呢？”

“毁婚？”叶真一愣，看向了米江雪：“娘，这是怎么回事？”

母亲米江雪连急带气地解释了一通，叶真总算明白了这件事的原委。

叶天成夫妇上次探视叶真回来之后，米江雪就一直再给儿子张罗媳妇，左瞅右挑的，总算挑了个合眼的，两家人谈了几次，就把这事给定了。

本着婚姻大事，父母做主的原则，米江雪和叶天成，直接就把彩礼都给了，就等叶真回来完婚了。

恰好这些日子叶真回来了，米江雪就想着操办这件事，因为叶真年龄大了。真玄大陆，十六七岁结婚的几乎是主流，超过这个岁数，就算耽搁了。

恰好儿子叶真又赚了一笔金子回来，米江雪就想着风风光光地给儿子娶媳妇过门，忙里忙外跑了几天，没成想，于家不干了。

他们要毁婚！

米江雪赶回来想与叶天成商量一下这件事，没成想，于家人直接衔尾追到家门口，退聘来了。

“娘，谁说我要娶媳妇了？这么大的事，你怎么也不跟我商量一下，害了人家姑娘终生怎么办？”娶亲这件事，叶真压根没想过。

叶真很明白，他要走的道路，注定不是普通人能够长久陪伴下去的。

“小伙子，看来你还有点自知之明啊！”

叶真说话的当口，那于夫人阴阳怪气的声音响了起来，“叶家嫂子，你送过来的彩礼，一分不少的我都给你搁这了，那婚书，你还是拿出来，我们当面撕了吧！”

“于夫人，你……你怎么能这样，我家真儿哪点配不上你家闺女了？当初你听说我儿子成为齐云宗外门弟子的时候，是怎么说的，怎么这转眼间就反悔了？”

“叶家嫂子，你这话可不对，环儿可是我亲生闺女，无论如何，我也不能将我家闺女往火坑里推啊。”

听着母亲米江雪怒喝起来，叶真的脸色骤地一沉，一种极度不爽的感觉油然而生，正欲发作的当口，一个打扮得花枝招展、鬓角还插着一朵小红花的媒婆子就抢进了院子。

“哎哟喂，你这妇人怎么说话呢，叶真叶公子，什么时候成火坑啦？叶真叶公子，可是别人抢都抢不到的金饽饽。”

那鬓角插红花的媒婆子指着于夫人的鼻子就是一通骂，骂完之后，疾步抢到米江雪身前就高呼起来：“叶夫人，叶夫人，我给你报喜来啦，大喜事上门了！”

“什么喜事？”米江雪愣了一下。

“还能是什么喜事啊，当然是提亲啊，郡城的何鸿昌何大老爷，特让我来给他唯一的宝贝闺女向叶真叶大公子提亲来了。”媒婆喜气连天地说道。

“何鸿昌？何鸿昌是谁？”米江雪有些茫然。

“哎哟喂，叶家大嫂子，你不知道啊？何半城，武安郡无人不知无人不晓的何半城啊，来向你家公子提亲了！”

“什么，你是说武安郡城的何半城？”别人先没惊，那于夫人先是倒吸了一口冷气！
