The evil thief sat down with a smile on his face and gave his wrist to Yamazaki.
Yamazaki took his pulse and found that his skills had indeed improved greatly, and the five elements were fully developed, which obviously benefited him a lot.
And the effect can be seen so quickly, thanks to the unique innate energy here.
"Very good, keep practicing."
"I can't continue practicing for the time being, so I'll help you find beauty-preserving medicine."
"I'm not in a hurry, just be careful."
"I know this. Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention it last time. The reason why everyone pays attention to Master Cangsong is because he has lived a long time and knows a secret."
"What?"
"It's about cultivating immortality. It is said that every thousand years or so, there will be some kind of door or other passage where you can go to cultivate immortality."
"Ah?" Yamazaki was stunned, because that's how he and Shandai came.
"I don't know the specifics. Despite the big beard on my face, I'm actually not even forty years old."
"The Wulin Alliance believes that Master Cangsong should have experienced it once, but it is hard to say whether there are any clues left and who holds the clues."
"I see," Yamazaki thought, "but if there is such a thing, as long as someone comes back and tells it, wouldn't everyone know about it?"
"That's the problem, no one has come back!"
"Ah!" Yamazaki was stunned. Doesn't this mean they can't go back?
The evil thief naturally didn't expect this. He thought to the other person, "Isn't it strange why no one comes back but knows what happened?"
"Well, it's indeed strange." Yamazaki agreed.
The evil thief said with a smile: "Because some people are afraid of not getting over it, so they just spread the story and tell it as a story to future generations."
"Time has passed for many years, some inheritances have been discontinued, and some are still there, but the stories have changed beyond recognition."
"However, some of the people mentioned in the story have their names traced in the history of martial arts."
"Although Master Cangsong has not been mentioned, some people in the Wulin League who like to read confirmed that in those people's era, Master Cangsong was already a famous master."
Yamazaki frowned and thought, "How did you know it was Cansong Zhenren in the first place? I mean, the first discoverer obviously didn't know Cansong Zhenren, otherwise he would definitely not have publicized it."
The evil thief nodded, "This time, some herbal collectors accidentally discovered a cave in the mountains in the south. They brought back some gold and silver jewelry, including some hundreds of thousands of years old relics, including calligraphy and paintings, for auction."
"Some people like to collect these, and those connoisseurs quickly identified them as thousand-year-old artifacts, which then attracted more people to pass them on."
"After the people in the Wulin League found out, they still wanted to keep it a secret, but there are people all over the world who like to read books, and some people also discovered the problem with Master Cangsong."
"The story spread, the secret was no longer a secret, and everyone acted together."
"The Wulin Alliance is useless at the critical moment, so we can only let everyone fight."
"The first one was at the auction venue, and the person who wanted to know the secret of cultivating immortals the most was the Xiantian Grandmaster. While they were fighting, they didn't show mercy to their subordinates. There were killings everywhere in the city.
"But at the end of the fight, I found out that there were no martial arts secrets or anything like that, so I concluded that it was just a cave, just a part of the cave, and there were places like retreat rooms."
"So I went back to Master Cangsong's cave. At that time, the innate masters, although they didn't try their best, were all angry."
"The situation was chaotic, and I dug a hole in from the other side, but I was eventually discovered."
Yamazaki nodded, "So that's it."
"Okay, I've said it all and I'm leaving. I'll try to come back before the New Year so that you can propose marriage."
"Ha, after listening to your talk about cultivating immortals, I'm not in a hurry anymore. It doesn't matter if I can't marry that one. I'll marry a fairy in the future."
The evil thief laughed and said, "You kid, I can't tell you are this kind of person. Before you even eat in the bowl, you are already thinking about what's in the pot. Do you want it or not?"
Yamazaki shook his head, "No more for now."
"Okay, I'll take a rest then." The evil thief handed over his hand and slipped away.
Shandai appeared, "Brother, we won't be able to go back, right?"
"You have thought of it too."
"Well, how about I go take a look?"
"We'll go there in two days and just treat it as a stroll."
"knew."
…
Having said that, Shan Dai prepared all night and left on horseback at dawn the next day.
I came back listlessly at noon. Needless to say, I knew that I couldn't go back.
But Yamazaki still listened to what she said. The fire was still the same, and things could get through, but they couldn't get through.
"How should I put it? I just block you in the big iron door and you can't get it open no matter how hard you hit it."
Yamazaki sighed, "I probably understand. It should be related to the innate energy in our bodies. With that, we can't go back."
Shan Dai thought about it, "So that's it, so on the side of cultivating immortals, once you have the immortal energy, you can't come back."
"right."
"What a pity, I still have money to spend!"
"Money is something external to oneself and does not matter. Fortunately, we have repaid Shanjiabao's kindness and have nothing to worry about."
"I don't care about that. It doesn't matter if I'm callous or ungrateful. Anyway, I don't think I owe them anything. It makes no sense for them to pick us up and throw us over there. It's a huge kindness.
"
"Everyone is his own person. We won't argue about this. Just think about what you think is good."
"That's right, I'm going to practice."
…
Shan Dai left, Yama Qi missed the beauty at home, and could only say no more after thinking about it.
Yamazaki thought about having a beauty here, which would at least be eye-catching.
I just looked around the city and saw that there was no one who was interested in me, let alone getting a wife, I didn't even think about taking a concubine.
However, Yamazaki was not tempted. Many people who had similar thoughts to him were tempted.
Rich or not, marry a wife and go home to celebrate the New Year.
In the second half of the twelfth lunar month, the city was full of people getting married.
To put it bluntly, most people in the city today live a similar life, guarding a few houses and acres of land, raising one or two cages of chickens, and there are ducks by the water.
Those who raise pigs and sheep are all wealthy, and thanks to the affordable exchange prices at Yamazaki, everyone can afford to eat bacon.
Some were not satisfied and went outside the city to dig wild vegetables, pick mushrooms, and hunt game in exchange for things.
Many people even make wine. Although it’s not good, it’s still wine.
In short, most of the people in the city are well-matched, so naturally the marriage talks will be quick.
Yamazaki received many invitations, but none of them went.
Is it fun to watch other people marry their wives every day?
…
On the other side, Hancheng.
As the New Year approaches, the Southeast King's army withdraws.
Although the Southeast King's navy did not capture the imperial navy, it still caused considerable casualties to the imperial navy.
Although the war between the two sides did not affect Hancheng, it was already a common thing for spies to fight in Hancheng.
Everyone in Hancheng was on tenterhooks. Seeing that this situation had subsided, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Large families with spare capacity have also begun preparing for New Year dinners.
Jiang Feiping from Shanfu also got the menu and the list of attendees.
Jiang Feiping didn't look much and left Chang Xiu and Madam Dong to worry about it.
Now she practices Qigong every day, and the more she practices, the more insignificant she feels that people in the world are small, because she can kill them by flipping her palms.
