84 Grandpa's New Actions
After a few more days, Grandpa Jun's interest in building a tall tower was piqued again. The garden in the center of the Jun residence became bustling with activity. Countless famous flowers were dug out from the roots. A tall and straight tower standing at seven floors was erected. A sentry post was placed at the top of the building to monitor the surroundings.
When there was nothing to do, Grandpa Jun would often bring his men to stroll around the residences of the officials situated near the Jun family's residence. In the middle of the night, the sound of trampling hooves could be heard. The battle cries were deafening—Grandpa was doing his best to train them!
However, the training didn't matter much to Grandpa Jun. Over the past few days, the officials around the Jun family were getting more and more frightened. Finally, they didn't hesitate to spend a large sum of money to buy another house and move out. Before anyone could even move in, Grandpa Jun gave the order and the entire residence was razed to the ground!
When he had nothing better to do, Grandpa Jun treated the guards in the residence as regular soldiers and trained them hard! Then, the information from the staff outside the Jun family was revealed that Grandpa Jun would often drown himself in alcohol when he was free…
Everyone understood this point. No matter who saw hope previously, they would feel despair and would not be able to take it. Luckily, the old master's alcohol tolerance wasn't bad and he didn't go crazy with alcohol. It was a blessing in disguise.
Actually, everyone knew…
In his disappointment towards his grandson, he suddenly saw hope for his grandson to turn over a new leaf.
But just as he saw this hope, he received news that his grandson had been killed.
He had just lost hope when he received news that her grandson was still alive.
Just as he received news that his grandson was still alive and was on the precipice of rejoicing, he was told that his grandson had become a cripple…
… Wasn't fate just toying with him? With such a violent series of events, no matter how tough a person's nerves were, it would be impressive if they were able to keep themselves sane! Everyone put their hearts into it. If they were to encounter such a situation, they would probably have already broken down and their performance would not be as good as Grandpa Jun's. Hence, they were all relieved of Grandpa Jun's strange behavior and were used to it.
Poor old man. It's already good that he didn't go crazy after being toyed by the heavens like this. It's fine as long as he doesn't torment me. Almost everyone had the same thought. Even His Majesty, the Emperor, who had always been wise, had such thoughts.
In the Jun family's courtyard, in the forbidden zone that everyone recognized, Jun Moxie smiled happily and poured a glass of wine for Jun Wuyi. The wine was fresh and fragrant, so clear that the bottom of the cup could be seen. One could get intoxicated before even drinking it.
"Moxie, I didn't expect you to have such capabilities. This wine is really… a peerless wine! The ones that I drank before are really trash!" Jun Wuyi unintentionally took a sip and squinted his eyes in an intoxicated manner. In another corner, four burly warriors were waving their hammers and pulling the windboxes as they smithed. The scorching flames were almost silver in color, burning a large piece of iron within until it was red. After that, they picked it up and took a deep breath of the fragrance of the wine in the air. At the same time, they raised their hammers and hammered down. Their bodies were drenched in sweat, but the iron chunks under the hammer did not seem to have much changes. It could be seen that the iron block's toughness had already reached an unimaginable level…
Young Master had said that as long as he could smash this iron to a satisfactory level every day, he would reward everyone with a pot of fine wine! Heavens, even the emperor himself might not be able to drink such good wine! This was the greatest enticement for the four warriors who were addicted to alcohol!
"Brewing wine is just a small bait among all the other miscellaneous techniques. To prevent us from not having the chance to drink it ourselves, we should drink daily. It's really unbearable to drink that kind of crappy wine every day!" Jun Moxie took a sip elegantly, narrowed his eyes, and asked with interest, "Uncle, I heard that Grandpa was drunk the first time he drank this wine?"
"I heard that he got… drunk." Jun Wuyi unintentionally frowned, and his face darkened as he lectured, "Don't talk about your elders behind your back!"
"Er…" Jun Moxie scratched his nose, still in high spirits. He didn't give up and asked, "I heard that Grandpa was drunk and even sang? He even stuck his head in a pig's head and fell asleep?"
"You brat! Are you asking for a beating?! Why are you revealing the truth? Can't you mince your words a little?" Jun Wuyi was both distressed and amused. "Why didn't you explain that the wine is strong? It's already fortunate for you that your grandfather didn't come to settle scores with you. He washed his beard for an entire morning before clearing the filth…"
"Oh…" Jun Moxie gave a sly smile. "Grandpa doesn't seem to have much tolerance for alcohol."
"Let's not talk about this anymore!" Jun Wuyi didn't feel comfortable at all. He wasn't interested in discussing Grandpa Jun at all. "You should be the one preparing."
Qinghan, who had been cultivating Mystic Qi since she was young? Guan Qinghan's family had a long 21:22
history, and now he was about to break through the Silver Mystic Qi realm!
Jun Moxie's face turned bitter. He raised his wine glass and downed it in one gulp, sighing.
Grandpa Jun suddenly had a wild imagination a few days ago. Because of Jun Moxie's low cultivation, Grandpa Jun couldn't find any sparring partner for him. Moreover, he was also worried about leaking the secret. A few days ago, he suddenly had an idea and asked Guan Qinghan to spar with Jun Moxie! This began Jun Moxie's hellish journey.
In reality, this was Grandpa's intentional prank on his precious grandson. Blame it on him for hiding it from him for so many years! He deserved a beating!
Jun Moxie was helpless.
He couldn't kill his potential sister-in-law in one strike, right? However, if he didn't subdue her in one go, he would begin to suffer. After all, although his Art of Unlocking Heaven's Fortune was amazing, he had only cultivated it for less than two months. How could he be a match for Guan Qinghan, who had been cultivating Mystic Qi since she was young? Guan Qinghan's family had a long history, and now he was about to break through the Silver Mystic Qi realm!
Jun Moxie no longer had that lecherous look in his eyes. This made Guan Qinghan feel less uncomfortable as she raised her guard. Moreover, there was another reason: Jun Moxie's newly brewed wine was brewed with fruits. It was sweet and especially delicious. Other than the slightly stronger aftertaste, it was simply a heavenly wine that could not be found anywhere else! Guan Qinghan liked it the moment she drank it, so Guan Qinghan had been unwilling to drink it until now. Now, she came without fail daily. Things had changed very quickly!
She came to give her brother-in-law a beating and vent her anger. She could even get two flasks of fine wine as a reward. It was such a good thing to do, and she had been commissioned by Grandpa Jun to do whatever she wanted. It wouldn't be too much even if she did it ten times a day. It would be unacceptable if she didn't do it!
"Sigh!" Jun Moxie let out a long sigh. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Uncle, how is the medicine that you asked someone to collect? After such a long time, it should be about done, right?"
Jun Wuyi sighed and said, "The Intestinal Cracker Flower, Common Heart Grass, and Persistent Severing Root already exist, and there are quite a number of them. However, there is no news about the Blazing Heart Meridian. As for the Nine Leaf Grass, this herb is rather rare, and few people use it, so it's not easy to find it. A few days ago, I finally heard that the Jin Xiang Trading Company had discovered three stalks of the herb and are currently shipping them to the capital. I hurriedly got someone to buy them, but I didn't expect that someone had already bought them…"
"They've been bought?" Jun Moxie instantly became alert and straightened his back. "If it wasn't for the fact that someone's meridians are blocked or seriously injured, no one would use that medicine! Why did someone buy it at such a crucial time? Could it be that someone leaked the news and is plotting against our family?"
