"You went out early this morning. What did you do that took you so long?"
Wan Qingqing asked softly while bringing over a plate of newly picked strawberries and placing it in front of Wei He.
"I went out to do some errands. I may have to practice in seclusion for a while." There were some things that Wei He didn't want Wan Qingqing to know.
The further he went, the more he felt that the so-called reality contained more dangers.
This is a paradox.
The further you go, the closer you get to the truth, and the more dangerous it becomes.
But if you don't move forward, if you don't have enough strength, you will drift with the crowd and be oppressed and persecuted by others.
Whether it is the Wushi Sect or other forces, they are just external manifestations.
The real inner problem is that Wei He is not strong enough.
If he could conquer the three main peaks of the Wushi Sect by himself, I'm afraid he wouldn't have had to move his family and just go up the mountain to exterminate the family.
But his strength hasn't reached that level yet.
"Don't worry...it'll be okay. As long as I'm here, you can rest assured." Wei He said with a smile.
"I feel really relieved. I just see you working day and night on your practice. When Uncle Jiu was still here, there were still people who could communicate with you.
Now that Uncle Jiu is gone, no one in the family can talk to you on an equal footing. You have almost reached the limit of your true skills..."
Wan Qingqing sighed.
"I understand that you want to go back for revenge, but the Wushi sect is so powerful that it can't last for just one day or two. You can't train your body to death just for the sake of temporary anger..."
"Of course I understand." Wei He reached out and held his wife's hand. "It's just that I'm at a critical moment recently and I can't relax..."
"You say that every time..." Wan Qingqing sighed.
"..." Wei He was speechless. Before, he was looking for the moon and whale picture, and now he is about to make a breakthrough.
He can now clearly feel every day that the qi and blood in his body are rapidly expanding and getting bigger. His strength is also slowly increasing.
As long as he waits until almost half a year later, when he reaches the critical point, and then breaks through with the Realm Breaking Pearl, by then, his blood sac will be 10%, and his strength will increase exponentially again.
By then, he will have some trump cards in the Minggan True Realm.
"Okay, I won't say much about you. I don't ask for anything else. I just ask that you don't be impatient or take risks when practicing." Wan Qingqing squeezed Wei He's hand tightly.
"I know." Wei He nodded. He looked at his wife's worried look. The various troubles and dangers he originally wanted to mention about Ming felt came to his lips and he took them back.
Wan Qingqing, who had just forged his bones, had heard that the realm of real people might be dangerous, but he only had a rough idea.
"Speaking of which, the day after tomorrow, I made an appointment with my second sister to watch the lantern festival together. Do you want to come with me?" Wan Qingqing asked.
"No, you go ahead and have fun." Wei He refused as always.
This has been rejected by him countless times.
Wan Qingqing is not surprised, she has long been used to it.
"All right..."

The small meeting has been agreed in advance.
Wei He only remembered the date and stayed at home practicing all day long.
It's just that he doesn't look for trouble, but trouble comes to him.
Wei He developed the habit of occasionally going to Baisong Trading Company to collect ancient paintings because he was looking for the picture of the bright moon and the whale.
Although the Mingyue Whale Picture has been found now, this habit still continues.
In order to identify authenticity, he has studied and studied the ability to identify ancient paintings for a long time.
And in many ancient paintings, they are not only painters, but also famous and powerful warriors.
The scroll is likely to contain special artistic conceptions, and the picture of the moon and whale is one of them.
Wei He practiced hard at home for several days, and occasionally relaxed, then went to Baisong Trading Company to see the newly arrived batch of new goods.
"Isn't this Mr. Lu? It's a coincidence that I met you again."
At a calligraphy and painting exhibition in a business store.
An old man with a long beard wearing an emerald round hat greeted Lu Weisheng with a smile.
"Zhang Guan is polite. I heard that the quality of this batch of goods is good. It comes from the far away country of Wu. The country of Wu has inherited a lot of the essence of the previous dynasty. During the war, many people took refuge there.
Now that we are back to support you, there will naturally be more good products to be found. So come and take a look."
Lu Weisheng held two iron bladders in his hand, turned them gently, and replied with a smile.
There were about a dozen people in the small hall of the trading company, but not many of them dared to say hello to him.
Lu Weisheng has a deep background, wide connections, and powerful methods. He is considered one of the well-known big businessmen in the city.
One of the people talking to him was a man from the Zhang family who had an official position.
The other is Ouyang Can, a martial arts master from Huifeng Quan Academy with a full beard and a strong body.
Wei He was also in the small hall at this time, standing in front of a picture of landscapes and birds, carefully studying the details.
Unlike the others, 80% of the others come here to make connections.
But he is different.
He doesn't care about connections, he is just purely interested in ancient paintings.
Compared with Lu Weisheng and others, he can only be regarded as an ordinary character in this circle.
After all, his superficial identity is not outstanding or eye-catching, he is just like an ordinary wealthy businessman.
And this time, the rest of the people in the small hall are all high-quality customers that the firm attaches great importance to.
While he was inspecting it carefully, he suddenly heard a loud noise.
The door opened with a click.
A group of people walked in quickly, and in front of them were three young men wearing brocade robes.
And the person walking at the front was clearly Wang Zui from the Wang family.
Wang Zui was at the head, followed by brothers Song Shixiong.
The three people strode into the door, glanced at them, and walked towards the wall.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, they immediately looked at the ancient paintings hanging on the wall.
They didn't even pay much attention to the introduction of the waiter who led them in.
"Be careful. This is an exhibition hall. It's full of respectable people. It's not the outside of the city you're used to. Please keep your voice down." Wang Zui, who was the leader, warned in a low voice.
He and brother Song Shixiong had been on good terms with each other because of the previous incident, and their relationship was better than before.
Coming here this time is to get clues, and the whereabouts of the Xuantian Record are to be found from this calligraphy and painting exhibition.
Since that day, Wang Zui of the Wang family was ambushed and almost caught.
After he returned, he immediately went to his grandfather at home and asked about the book.
But just when the three of them were about to look for the book, a thief suddenly broke into the Wang family's house.
The Tianxuanlu was stolen.
I originally thought that the matter was over here. But I didn't expect that the thief who stole the book claimed that what he got was just a fake book.
The real book mysteriously disappeared.
A large number of experts tracked down the fake book and thought that the real book was still in the Wang family, causing a lot of trouble.
The Wang family's guards suffered many casualties, and Wang Zui and his grandfather were also in danger several times.
They explained that the real book had disappeared, but no one believed it. So in order to solve the problem, brothers Wang Zui and Song Shixiong took on the task of finding the real Tianxuanlu.
As long as we find out where the real Tian Xuan Lu is, we can prove that the Wang family didn't hide it secretly.
After a series of investigations, the three of them relied on a little tripod cat kung fu and a little luck to find a clue after a thrilling journey.
The clue was said to be at the calligraphy and painting exhibition here. Therefore, the three of them got the invitation and rushed in.
At this time, the three of them looked left and right, constantly scanning the paintings and calligraphy on the surrounding walls.
Wei He looked back and didn't expect that he and brother Song Shixiong could meet each other under such circumstances.
However, he and the Song brothers were already clear, so he did not intend to show up to recognize each other, but continued to look at the paintings and calligraphy on the wall.
It just didn't take long.
Suddenly there was noise again from behind.
For some reason, Wang Zui and the Song brothers were surrounded by a group of warriors wearing the same black attire.
Lu Weisheng held his iron gall and stared at the three of them with a smile.
"You found a clue and you want to run away? Who do you think gave you the clue?"
His eyes flickered, staring intently at Wang Zui and Song Shixiong.
"It really took no effort at all. Tell me, what does the puzzle on the painting mean? Where is the real book?"
The three people were surrounded in the middle, looking ugly.
They never imagined that they would meet Lu Weisheng here.
The gang members who were chasing them before were sent by the man in front of them.
There were two masters standing in front of Lu Weisheng, blocking him.
One is a strong woman wearing metal gloves, Iron Hands Chen Shou.
This woman appeared several times before in the hands of those who were tracking them, and led a team to surround them, injuring Song Shixiong's left hand with one palm at a time.
If he hadn't been smart enough to jump into the river and escape from the water, he might have been dead by now.
The other one has enlarged ears and lobes and kind eyes, like a great monk, but wears a string of metal beads on his right arm.
This man's name was Monk Tiezhu. He seemed gentle, but in fact he was ruthless. During the previous tracking, he was the one who took action and personally killed the chief of the Wang family's guard, Zhang Qingyuan, the master who had watched Wang Zui grow up.
At this time, the enemies were extremely jealous when they met.
But Wang Zui's eyes were red, and he knew something was wrong.
They never expected that they would bump into Lu Weisheng face to face under such circumstances.
"Mr. Lu, this is a trading company. For my sake, can you please refrain from doing anything here?" Xiao Jingyun, the boss of Baisong Trading Company, came forward.
This is a calligraphy and painting exhibition organized by him. If he does it directly here, the ancient paintings hanging around may be destroyed. There are so many distinguished guests present. If anyone is hurt, it will not be a good thing for him.
Lu Weisheng glanced at Xiao Jingyun.
Baisong Trading Company was able to hold an exclusive calligraphy and painting exhibition in Wei Fang City, obtain a lot of rare goods, and it also had experts at its disposal.
And to be able to organize such an exhibition in the city, there will naturally be a background behind it.
On normal days, he might give him some face.
But now, he is sure that the three people in front of him have found clues to the Tianxuanlu. In the scene just now, these three people must have discovered something.
so...
"I'm sorry, these three people stole a precious ancient book from me before, and now they finally encountered it, so they must take it." Lu Weisheng smiled slightly and replied casually without sincerity.
"You fart!" Song Shixiong was confused by the words of the person in front of him, and suddenly a burst of anger burst out of his chest and blurted out.
"It's obviously you...!"
"Take it!" Lu Weisheng said calmly.
Immediately, a group of black-clad warriors in front of him rushed towards Wang Zui and the others.
This group of people started to move one by one, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the leaders among them were two martial arts masters.
The iron bead monk and the iron sand hand Chen Shou are both powerful martial arts masters. They concentrate their strength in their attacks and rush forward, relying entirely on their protective strength as if they were wearing iron armor and charging hard.
The rest of them all also had three health points, and their shots were equally concentrated and extremely fast. They all seemed to be following a speedy and dexterous route.
Seeing a group of people surrounding them, everyone watching the show thought that Wang Zui and the others would definitely be caught.
But when the three of them moved, they were like strange swimming fish, dodging left and right under the siege of everyone, but not being caught.
The body movements of the three people are very strange, and many of them seem to violate the laws of the human body. However, such dancing-like movements can always avoid the siege of the people around them at critical moments.
Obviously their speed is not very fast and they don't have much strength, but they can get out of the way and be captured in time.
