Chapter 44: Go to the door
Three days passed in a flash.
In the morning, the old man's shop was still hidden deep in the alley. For the past three days, he had hung a sign in front of his shop saying "No visitors allowed". Of course, no one took it seriously. Most people living in the west of the city knew him. The old man had a strange temper and was quite lonely. Instead, people thought that he had suffered some misfortune in the past and felt very pitiful.
However, his carving skills are indeed very exquisite.
The old man has not rested for three days, and even Lu Yan has been watching him for three days.
"Such a vigorous and profound truth is rarely seen in the world... I, Gu Yin, am truly blessed..."
In the small house, the old man was working at the desk. His carving knife was slowly moving across the entire sandalwood plaque. Every stroke of the knife seemed to carry his deepest understanding of the meaning of calligraphy. The calligraphy scroll that Gu Heng gave him had been put into his space ring.
The old man knew that his understanding of calligraphy was far inferior to Gu Heng's.
Therefore, he could never truly understand the great principles and ideas contained in the scroll. Therefore, carving a plaque was just a piece of cake for the old man. He could make a plaque with a simple sweep of his true energy.
But not this time.
In order to firmly imprint his insights from the scroll in his mind, the old man chose the most old-fashioned way - carving slowly.
The very slow kind.
"...Master has entered the state of enlightenment."
Lu Yan sat aside, watching the old man's carving nervously. With every stroke of the knife, his eyes seemed to flash with a faint light, and his understanding of calligraphy became deeper. His eyes were dry and bloodshot.
The same is true for the old man.
In the past three days, he has almost neglected sleep and food, and his only goal is to comprehend the great doctrine contained in the book. This is also the key to his breakthrough. If he does not cherish this opportunity, he may never reach a higher level in this life.
He didn't want to miss it.
In a flash, another two or three hours passed.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and put down the carving knife.
In the end, he completed what Mr. Gu asked him to do.
"Huh...finally done!"
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, then looked down at his work.
On the plaque, there are four powerful carved characters "Gu's Medical Clinic". Although they are just carved words, they are full of true meaning, outlining the mountains and rivers, dragons and phoenixes flying, and are lifelike, just like living things. If a cultivator looks carefully, he can feel the majestic meaning of embracing all rivers and seas contained in them.
"Alas, it's still a little bit off after all..."
The old man sighed.
"But, Master's handwriting is obviously quite good. I can only see one or two points of its charm..." Lu Yan couldn't help but feel sorry for the old man.
"What do you know?"
The old man stared: "It only has the form, but not the meaning. It's just my poor imitation."
He wasn't even sure whether this plaque could satisfy Gu Heng.
The old man said to Lu Yan with a serious face: "Remember, that being is much better than me. If you want to reach this level, you need to study hard. Only then will you have hope. Don't slack off."
"Yes, yes, I remember it."
Lu Yan quickly agreed.
The level of this old senior is unmatched in the entire Riyan Dynasty. Lu Yan's family is not that strong, and his vision is not high. He originally had an attitude of seeking advice, so now he is naturally unusually respectful.
Whatever the Master says, that's what it is.
"You should comprehend it carefully. I think your Qi is about to break through. Please wait here. I will take this plaque to Master Gu."After the old man finished giving his instructions, he carried the large plaque out.
...
...
In the clinic in the south of Yunling City.
"Master, I need to go out for a while."
Qin Yiyao fastened her belt, looked at the Yunxiu boots on her feet and the "Lengyue" sword at her waist, and shouted towards the back hall.
"Go ahead, go ahead. The sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back."
Gu Heng's voice came out.
Hearing this, Qin Yiyao paused, then walked out the door.
Today is the day to make the Heilin Gang pay the price!
She practiced hard for three days and took Gu Heng's tonic pills. Now she has reached the second level of the foundation-building stage.
Only four days had passed since Qin Yiyao was picked up by Gu Heng.
Qin Yiyao has the blood of the descendants of the ascended immortals and has the peerless skills from the Taixu period to assist her. Although she looks very weak now, if she really fights with others, no matter who her opponent is, he will definitely be shocked by her strength!
Qin Yiyao looked at her skirt. It was bluish-white in color. It would not be good if it was stained with blood. But at least this skirt was a gift from her master.
Can't get dirty.
If she, who was only at the second level of foundation building, wanted to destroy the entire Black Forest Gang, it would be a fantasy in the eyes of others. However, what she was thinking about was how to prevent her skirt from being stained by the blood of those ants.
Qin Yiyao pondered all the way as she walked out of the south of Yunling City and headed towards the edge of Yunling Forest.
There are many poisonous insects and beasts in the Yunling Forest, and there are also many demon beasts. Not to mention mortals, even weaker monks often die in it. Qin Yiyao, wearing a thin skirt like the cold snow in early spring, stood here and was particularly eye-catching. She was beautiful and had a superior temperament. Even in such an environment, she was still as eye-catching as a crane standing out among chickens.
Occasionally, people passed by and saw such a pretty girl. Most of them admired her beauty, but there were still some guys with greedy or covetous faces...
"This girl is so beautiful..."
"What a pity. Looking at her like this, I don't know which family this lady is from. We won't be able to enjoy her..."
"Humph, what are you afraid of? No matter how beautiful she is, she is just a little girl..."
Qin Yiyao had sharp ears and eyes, and when she heard the thieves' unscrupulous discussion, she frowned and looked over there sharply. The scabbard at her waist trembled slightly, and a chill fell on her!
When those people saw that she was staring at them, they quickly dodged and fled in panic.
"waste."
Qin Yiyao sneered and continued walking forward.
She has lived in the south of Yunling City for ten years. Qin Yiyao is very clear about what forces are entrenched outside the city. The Black Forest Gang is hidden in the Black Forest Mountain four miles away. The terrain of the Black Forest Mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is said that the leader of the Black Forest Gang has the cultivation level of the tenth level of Jindan, and ordinary cultivators can do nothing about him. Therefore, it is regarded as the bully of the vicinity.
Using her true Qi to speed up her journey, Qin Yiyao soon arrived at the foot of the Black Forest Mountain.
She raised her head, looking at the dense forest on the steep mountain, touched the top-grade long sword at her waist, her eyes determined, and she raised the sword to the top.
...
In the headquarters of the Black Wind Gang.
Gang leader Huang Su has been feeling his eyelids twitching these past few days.
That day, he sent Chongjiu, the second most capable fighter among his men, to take people to the south of Yunling City to gather information.
And then nothing happened.He hasn't returned for three days. Either Chongjiu stole the treasure and set up his own sect, or all his men were killed by the young cultivator in the Jindan stage.
Huang Su felt that the latter possibility was most likely, but the latter one was more terrifying.
The Black Forest Gang had already made enemies with the other side, and none of the people they sent came back alive, so no matter how clearly he thought about it, he didn't dare to send any more people over.
But if they just swallow this loss in silence, will the Black Forest Gang be able to survive in the future?
Just when Huang Su was feeling conflicted, the voices of his men came from outside the stone fort!
"Report——!"
"Report to the gang leader, a woman has come up the mountain at the foot of Black Forest Mountain!"
"oh?"
Huang Su raised his eyes and asked, "Female? Do you know her identity?"
"I don't know, but his cultivation is only at the second level of foundation building. We have set up an interception on the mountain road. Please make the decision, leader!"
Huang Su narrowed his eyes, revealing a ferocious look.
"Who cares who she is? She's only at the second level of foundation building and dares to break into the mountain pass of my Black Forest Gang. Tie her up and bring her here!"
He didn't know who brought him to his door, but Huang Su was not afraid.
The second level of foundation building?
What kind of waves can this cause?
On the mountain road of Heilin Mountain, all the members of the Heilin Gang have gathered here. They look at the pretty figure approaching from afar, all with greed in their eyes.
Her complexion was as white as jade, and although her figure was thin, she already had some graceful and exquisite features. Her thin skirt fitted her well, and she still looked a little immature now, but in time, she would surely become a stunningly beautiful woman.
But at this moment, her expression was extremely cold and her whole body was full of vigor.
Qin Yiyao took light steps and stopped on the mountain road, looking coldly at the people from the Heilin Gang.
The deputy gang leader held a sledgehammer in his hand, his face full of contempt and a lewd smile, as if he didn't feel any threat from this little girl who was at the second level of foundation building.
They were not afraid at all.
Qin Yiyao silently grasped the hilt of the sword, and her voice came over: "Where is the leader of the Black Forest Gang?"
"Little girl, have you thought it through? This is Black Forest Mountain, the territory of our Black Forest Gang!"
"If you want to come and find the gang leader, you have to pass the road guarded by us brothers first. Be honest, and maybe we can take you back to the mountain to have fun, hahahaha!"
The members of the Heilin Gang laughed.
There was a hint of anger burning in her eyes. How could she bear being humiliated by these guys?
Of course, even if it's not insulting, it makes no difference.
They will be killed anyway.
"Then I will kill you all, and then I will take down your gang leader."
The tone was as cold as frost, as if there were gusts of cold wind blowing past.
The deputy gang leader seemed to be shocked by Qin Yiyao's arrogant attitude, but then he smashed the ground with the handle of the hammer and shouted angrily: "Humph! You are just a yellow-haired girl in the second stage of foundation building, and you dare to speak nonsense here! Come on! Catch her, I will reward you handsomely!"
At that command, the gang members became excited instantly, and more than a dozen of them rushed towards Qin Yiyao, howling.
"court death."
Qin Yiyao shouted coldly, turned her wrist, and the Lengyue Sword came out of its sheath, as if it had turned into a gleam of silver moonlight!
