Chapter 98: The Theory of Luck: The Road to Immortality No longer Walks Alone
Wait for the group to return to the boat.
The guys are also returning one after another.
Amizhou is really too small. There are only two streets in the town, and you can visit it in half an hour.
Moreover, most of the people living here are Shengyi and Lao Miao people. They were called Aning Man in ancient times and have many taboos.
Except for passing boatmen who stop to replenish supplies, you rarely see many outsiders on weekdays.
They still maintain the custom of slash-and-burn farming and living by water.
Coupled with the language barrier, I simply ate something and wandered around casually before losing interest.
“Someone, please help Apu into the house to rest.”
Bamo could barely stay awake when he left the tavern, but when he arrived at the pier, he was blown away by the fishy smell of water and his mind was instantly confused.
The whole person was swaying and it was difficult to speak.
Chen Yulou could only help him back all the way.
The ship's light has been raised on the mast.
With the dim light, I summoned a familiar boatman, watched him carry Ba Mo all the way and disappeared around the corner of the escalator, and then I breathed a sigh of relief.
“Shopkeeper, let’s go back and rest first.”
Hong girl raised her little face and wore a hollow silver carved collar around her fair neck.
Her brows are picturesque and her appearance is radiant, giving people an indescribable sense of mystery.
It’s hard to imagine her not wearing makeup when she is in the mountains.
Now I like these little ornaments.
The flower spirit on the side has two long earrings hanging from her earlobes, shining brightly under the light of the lights, making her pair of water-cut eyes even brighter.
Two little girls holding hands.
Standing in the night, smiling.
There seems to be a bit more exciting atmosphere in the air.
“Go.”
Chen Yulou's heart moved slightly, and he nodded with a smile.
No need to think about it.
I must have bought a lot of things and went back to my room to dress up.
“Brother Dao, why don’t you go back and rest early?”
He looked back at the partridge whistle next to him.
His stern face was obviously a little drunker.
“I am too drunk to make myself laugh.”
Partridge Whistle cupped his hands and smiled helplessly.
The stamina of the fermented glutinous rice wine is truly astonishing. At this moment, he could only feel the drunkenness rising, and he could no longer suppress it.
I plan to go back and rest for a while.
When it gets later, I still have to meditate and practice. I don’t dare to waste a single second.
Immediately led the old foreigner to the bottom of the cabin.
Wait for their brothers and sisters to leave.
The boat suddenly became quite empty.
He and Kunlun were the only two left.
Standing on the side of the ship with his hands behind his hands, Chen Yulou looked far away.
In the small town of Amizhou, except for a few scattered lights, most of them have been extinguished, and the small town gradually fell into sleep.
“What time is it?”
“It should be that the time of Xu Zheng has passed and the time of Hai has not yet arrived.”
Kunlun glanced at the silver moon above his head and said with some uncertainty.
Although desk clocks and pocket watches have long been available, most people are still accustomed to using the sky stem to tell time.
Xuzheng is eight o'clock in the evening.
If we put it in later generations, this point would still be the time when the crowds were bustling and the nightlife had just begun.
But these days, except for those bustling metropolises, rural entertainment is too barren.
How can you have leisure and excitement if you can’t even fill your stomach?
“Here, the shopkeeper.”
While he was still sighing, Kunlun suddenly turned to magic and took out an oil paper bag from nowhere.
"What?"
"Just look at it and you'll find out."
Hearing this, he reached out to take it, took it in his hand and opened it.
It is clearly a candied haws.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This guy was so mysterious that he thought it was something good.
However, looking at his shy and expectant face, he did not refuse and put one to his mouth and bit it.
A long-lost sour and sweet taste suddenly spreads on the tip of the tongue.
"tasty."
Chen Yulou couldn’t remember how long it had been since he had eaten this kind of snack.
Slightly different from that of later generations.
But it’s pretty much the same.
Hearing this, Kunlun scratched his head and finally smiled on his face.
Seeing this situation, Chen Yulou suddenly came to his senses. After the awakening, Kunlun's temperament seemed to have become much colder and more steady.
But now it seems that he is still the same person.
It’s just a matter of thought.
“How have you been learning marksmanship recently?”
While biting the candied haws, Chen Yulou asked with a smile.
Start learning gunnery from Zhang Yunqiao.
In the blink of an eye, it has been almost two months.
Kunlun Gengu has a good understanding and is extremely diligent. You can see him practicing his gun on the deck almost every morning.
but.
The halberd was not used, but an ordinary spear.
There are many people on the boat, and the big halberd is too shocking.
But even so, it can attract countless cheers every time.
“Master Zhang said that I have reached the level where the strength of the spear is combined and the movement is subtle.”
Hearing the shopkeeper’s question, Kunlun didn’t dare to hide it and replied seriously.
Coherent and nuanced?
Although Chen Yulou doesn’t know how to shoot.
But he has also practiced martial arts. Martial arts emphasizes the integration of strength and strength, so this should be the case.
“Where are the books? Are you still reading?”
When you first left the village.
In addition to a change of clothes, Kunlun only brought a spurge and two books.
It is said that it was a gift from Uncle Ming.
Chen Yulou has specially read a book with a thousand characters and a book with hundreds of family names, all of which are ancient Mongolian books.
"Here I am."
Speaking of reading, Kunlun's eyes lit up.
Mr. said that practicing martial arts is to strengthen the body, while studying is to understand reason.
His chest is full of ink and ink, and his belly is full of poetry and calligraphy.
He didn’t understand much, but when the shopkeeper told him to study, he would definitely do it.
“How many words can you recognize?”
The two of them seemed to have not talked like this for a long time.
There happened to be no one around.
Let the wind in the night wake you up.
“Seven hundred and nine.”
Speaking of this number, Kunlun's calm face couldn't help but show a bit of excitement.
Before, he couldn't even imagine it.
Others found traveling by boat boring, but he didn't think so at all.
Practice gunnery every morning and evening, and read and write in the afternoon.
Every day is lived to the fullest.
“Yes, yes, once you have thoroughly mastered Thousand Character Essay and Hundred Family Surnames, you will be considered a scholar.”
Feel the changes in his mood.
Chen Yulou was also a little touched and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Not long.
In the darkness, a shadow sneaked out from the gangway.
Seeing the two figures at the bow of the ship, he couldn't help but blinked.
“What are you doing sneakily?”
“Why don’t you come over quickly?”
How could the sound of a blow on the boat be hidden from Chen Yulou's night vision?
Seeing it tiptoeing around and peeking around, I couldn't help but laugh and curse.
Seeing that he was exposed, it was not surprised. It just grinned and swayed out of the darkness.
Who else could it be if it wasn’t Yuan Hong?
From the last time I bumped into that big river monster on the mast.
During this period, it has become much more honest.
Even if the ship just entered the harbor, he hid in the room alone and did not go out.
only…
Seeing people returning one after another.
But it could not help but feel anxious when it could not see its master or Kunlun.
Thinking about it, I still sneaked out.
As soon as we got on the boat, we heard two voices coming from a distance.
Eavesdropped for a while, and they happened to talk about studying. Yuan Hong couldn't help but feel guilty.
At first he studied at Zhuangzi.
With a teacher watching over him and a beginner, he can still maintain his enthusiasm.
But during this period of time, no one was looking after me, and my irritable personality reappeared, so how could I calm down to read and write.
I am afraid that the master will ask Yuan Hong about his head.
Only dare to sneak aside. Who knew, but the traces were discovered right away.
“How have you been reading lately?”
"I already know Kunlun for more than 700 years. You can learn from him in one day, so it shouldn't be too bad, right?"
Hands behind his back, Chen Yulou asked casually.
"ah…"
Whatever you are afraid of will come.
Yuan Hong’s face was full of helplessness.
Had I known this earlier, I would have just waited in the house.
"Master, there are not as many as Kunlun, but...but it's not much different."
“How much is the difference?”
At this moment, Chen Yulou felt angry and funny in his heart when he saw it standing there with its lowered head and eyes lowered, raising its head to glance at him secretly from time to time.
“Almost half.”
Yuan Hong gritted his teeth, thinking that extending his head would be the same as shrinking his head.
but.
After finishing speaking, the imaginary rebuke did not happen, but fell into silence for a while.
It felt as if something had scratched its heart.
He glanced up furtively.
Then he saw his master staring at him with a smile.
Yuan Hong's expression changed, and he subconsciously wanted to make a few excuses.
But how could he hide his thoughts from Chen Yulou? He just shook his head and asked Kunlun to hand him the long stick.
“Let’s talk about reading later.”
“Try it first.”
Yuan Hong was a little confused.
But he still took it.
Looked carefully through the ship's lantern overhead.
The long stick is three feet and three inches long, weighs about ten kilograms, and is made of wrought iron. The stick is also engraved with strange patterns.
No matter the length or style, Yuan Hong was very fond of it. He couldn't help but feel itchy for a while and subconsciously waved it a few times.
A sharp blast of wind suddenly sounded.
Moreover, the more he used it, the more proficient he became. The long stick was swung in his hand so that water could not splash in, and the whistling wind was blowing.
See this scene.
Chen Yulou was even more weird.
Before, when he was in Amizhou City, because Partridge Whistle, the old foreigner and Bamo were all there, he couldn't ask too many questions.
Now that there was no one around, he couldn't help but feel curious.
“Have you ever used a long stick before?”
"No ah…"
Yuan Hong was still secretly wondering whether this long stick would be carried on his shoulders like Kunlun in the future, or whether it would be hung on his waist like the master's sword.
Hearing this, he subconsciously shook his head.
“Then how do you know how to use it?”
Chen Yulou is even more strange.
Had it been used, when it stole the corpse's energy from the coffin in the underworld, it wouldn't have been so overwhelmed by the corpse king that it couldn't lift its head. It would have had to humble itself and join forces with the mountain scorpion.
Hearing this, Yuan Hong was also stunned.
It doesn’t even understand why.
The reason why you want it.
Just during this period, I watched Kunlun practicing spears, Chen Yulou practicing swords, and old foreigners stretching their bows and strings every day, which made me feel very itchy.
I always feel that it must have a weapon of its own.
But I looked around.
No matter whether it was swords, guns, swords or halberds, Yuan Hong was not satisfied.
The same day, I was wandering around the side of the ship and saw a wooden stick used by the crew on the ship to hold the door. I picked it up and tried it. The more I used it, the more useful it became.
That’s why I thought about asking Kunlun to take a look at it when he got off the ship.
As for why he is so skilled.
Perhaps...it was born to use an iron rod?
“Yes, the blood-melting iron rod, the water-fire rod, and the name Yuan Hong the gibbon monkey, the buff stack is full..."
See it's confused look.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He had been thinking before that whether the old ape had some kind of bloodline, but now it seems that there may be some luck and cause and effect.
But he swore.
The name Yuan Hong was originally given to it.
It was just a spur of the moment idea and I didn’t think too much about it.
But now...
Since it is destiny, this old ape may have achieved far more than his upper limit.
Yuan Hong was still grinning when he suddenly heard his master's muttering and his eyes couldn't help but shine.
Subconsciously, he weighed the iron rod in his hand.
Yi Qi Water Fire Stick, this is a good name.
“䱱…forget it.”
One look at its expression, Chen Yulou could roughly guess what it was thinking.
Originally I wanted to stop it.
But now the buffs are all full, what’s left?
"There is still some time before the destination of this trip. Please study hard for me in the past few days. Not only can I master the Thousand-Character Classic and Hundreds of Family Surnames, but I must learn at least a thousand characters."
“Then, I will teach you the Qi refining method.”
“Qi refining method?!”
Yuan Hong’s heart skipped a beat.
I would rather leave my hometown that day and leave from Pingshan Baiyuan Cave.
On the one hand, people are strong and we are weak, so we have no choice but to do so.
On the other hand, it also hopes to enter human society and perhaps have the opportunity to learn the authentic Taoist Qi refining technique.
Rather than making dangerous moves and swallowing corpse energy.
only.
It’s been so long since I entered Chenjiazhuang.
Yuan Hong actually understood it.
Although the world is huge, with hundreds of millions of people, most of them are just ordinary beings, and it is extremely difficult to survive.
Let alone practicing Taoism.
At least so far, it has only seen its master and the Taoist cross the dragon gate.
Others are still struggling.
So, Yuan Hong had already gradually given up on cultivating Taoism.
did not expect…
Today the master actually took the initiative to commit himself.
He will teach him the method of refining qi.
“Thank you so much, master!”
Almost instantly, Yuan Hong bowed and fell to the ground.
“Okay, I’ll thank you after you meet the requirements.”
Chen Yulou shook his head.
He had reminded him before that he could just call him shopkeeper like Kunlun and the others.
However, Yuan Hong felt that he was different from them.
After a few times, he let him go.
“Yes, Yuan Hong will definitely read by candlelight at night, forgetting to eat and sleep, and will never let down his master’s great kindness.”
At this moment, his mind is filled with annoyance.
Had I known this earlier and studied hard during this period, I could have reached the thousand-word goal a few days earlier.
However, it is not too late to remedy the situation.
Hands on from the start of tonight.
"good."
“When you finish reading it, just go find me.”
Chen Yulou is quite satisfied with his attitude towards it.
"yes."
With such a promise, how could Yuan Hong hold back and wish he could sleep endlessly?
“Get busy.”
See its anxiety.
Chen Yulou didn’t stay long and let him leave on his own.
Looking at the moonlight reflected on the water, the scene of it holding an iron rod and moving mountains appeared in my mind.
“Shopkeeper, then I too...”
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Kunlun cupped his hands and prepared to go back to study.
"the same as you."
"However, the shopkeeper has higher expectations for you. If you can thoroughly understand the Thousand-Character Essay, you will also follow me and practice the Xuan Dao, Convince Qi and Build the Foundation."
Facing Chen Yulou’s eyes as deep as the stars.
Kunlun couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.
He knew it.
The shopkeeper will not leave himself alone.
“Go back, I’ll go back after watching the moonlight for a while.”
“Yes, from the shopkeeper.”
Kunlun nodded, turned around and strode away.
Wait until the boat is empty.
Looking at the silver moon in the night sky, the fleeting lights in the water, and the ship lights swaying in the wind.
Chen Yulou breathed a long sigh of relief.
On the road to eternal life, it seems that you are not so lonely!
