A month later.
The spring sun was just right, and it was warm.
Two deckchairs, a man, and a tortoise that was more dazzling than the sun.
He closed his eyes in front of the library, feeling the warmth.
It was comfortable.
As expected.
This was the life that a Big Shot should have.
The real big shots were not about fighting and killing.
It was to live happily and comfortably.
However, at this moment, a person came to the library Pavilion from afar.
It was an old man.
His hair and beard were all white, and the vicissitudes of life covered his cheeks.
His walking posture was slow and a little shaky, as if he was on the verge of death.
Chu he squinted his eyes and took a glance.
This old manâs cultivation level was barely acceptable.
The reason why he acted like an ordinary old man was because he was a young man.
He was not pretending.
It was just that he was in a really bad state at the moment, and his entire body was like a funnel.
Thus, he used a special method to seal himself to prevent his genuine Qi from leaking out.
Furthermore, the seal was very thorough. He didnât even use zhenqi to maintain the injuries on his body. He only used medicine to maintain them, causing the injuries on his body to worsen even more, and his lifespan was rapidly flowing away.
He was like a piece of rotten wood that had been severely corroded.
In fact, if he did not seal his genuine Qi and used it to protect himself, he could live for a few more decades even if he could not heal his injuries.
However, the price was that his strength would rapidly decline as his true Qi leaked out.
&Nbsp; so,
The old manâs method was to give up a few decades of his life to ensure that he could use his full strength at a critical moment.
Thatâs right.
In his current state, he could only attack once.
After the seal was removed, his genuine Qi returned to his body, but it was not something that his broken body could withstand.
When facing an enemy, no matter the outcome, he would not be able to hold on for long. Soon, he would explode.
There was no possibility of survival.
He was using his life as the price to maintain his deterrent force.
At the same time, in order to prevent any unnecessary trouble, he was forced to remove the seal in advance.
Chu he could feel that in the shadows of a corner not far away, there was a person who was not weak either. He was always following and protecting him in secret.
âLittle friend, youâre very relaxed!â
The old man walked to the front of the library Pavilion and swept a deep glance inside. Then, he lowered his head and greeted Chu he in a very friendly manner.
âNot bad. Old man, do you want to come with me?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu he opened his eyes and threw the bastard on the other chair aside. He made a gesture of invitation to the old man.
âRespecting the old and cherishing the young, you have to start from a young age, youâre not clever at all,â
Chu he glared at the little bastard who had crawled up from the ground and was shaking his head in dissatisfaction as he looked at the old man.
âLittle friend, youâre a good person.â
With a smile on his face, the old man sat down on the chair without any hesitation.
The two of them began to chat.
They talked about everything, including astronomy and geography.
Finally.
âLittle friend, youâre very knowledgeable.â
The old man cupped his fists at Chu he, showing his admiration.
âElder, you really are the great saint of this generation.â
Chu he returned the greeting!
He let out a long breath.
He hadnât bragged like this in a long time!
He had to maintain his image in front of the two little girls. He had to be careful with his words and not run around.
At the same time, he was sure that the old man had something to tell him.
Otherwise, it didnât make sense for the other party to keep flattering him even after he had bragged so much!
âLittle friend, are you Lin Xuelingâs senior brother?â
After building a relationship with Chu he for such a long time, the old man finally brought the topic back on track.
Senior brother?
Chu heâs eyes flashed.
It seemed that he was wrong. The other party did not know his true identity from Xue Ling.
That girlâs mouth is still very tight!
He didnât even say anything, but he took the initiative to keep it a secret.
The old man had the same suspicion as the Lin family.
They thought that there was an expert in the library Pavilion.
He had taken in three disciples.
He was the boss, Lin Xueling was the second, and Zhao Yuling was the third.
âIâm her brother little Chu.â
Chu he did not deny or admit it. He pretended to say both.
âLittle friend, is your master here?â
The old manâs expression was filled with anticipation.
Chu he shook his head!
He didnât have a master.
They all relied on their talent to cultivate.
The old man sighed with disappointment, and he seemed to have aged even more.
âLittle friend, do you know where your master is? can you help me pass on a message?â
The old man said unwillingly.
âWhatâs the matter?â
Chu heâs eyes flashed.
âI want to make a deal with him.â
The old man said solemnly.
âTell me!â
Chu he said.
The old manâs expression changed.
He looked at Chu he with an ugly expression.
âItâs a misunderstanding!â
Chu heâs expression changed.
He knew that the old man felt that he had overstepped his boundaries!
After all, the old man wanted to make a deal with his non-existent master.
In his eyes, he was only a disciple.
But now, he was demanding to know the details of the deal.
No matter what he said, it was inappropriate.
âOld man, I just want to know what you want to trade before I decide if Iâll agree or not,â
Chu he explained.
The old manâs face loosened and he looked relieved. He felt that Chu he was worried that his so-called deal was a small matter and would disturb his master, causing him to be punished.
After thinking about it, there was nothing to hide about this deal.
He moved his palm.
A magnificent ink painting with a wild aura slowly unfolded in front of Chu he.
The ink painting of mountains and rivers, the tide of people like a spring, the fireworks of the mortal world, all leaped onto the paper.
this is a treasure map of the king realm and above. It is the most precious treasure of the Xia clan.
The old man spoke with pride.
âI would like to use this map to make a deal with your honored master.â
300 years. He has protected the Xia clan for 300 years. This map will be his!
The old manâs voice was filled with reluctance, but his words were unusually firm.
Chu he took a glance at the mountain river Map.
The things drawn on it were very realistic and artistic.
The water was flowing, people were moving, and smoke was rising.
Hanging it on the wall did make it look a little cool.
However, it was not worth it to use her identity as a nanny for three hundred years in exchange!
After all, this painting only looked good to him.
As for its use ...
Iâm sorry.
It was not worthy of his current level.
Furthermore, he had many treasures on him, some of which were of a higher grade than this painting.
He looked at Chu he and shook his head.
The old man frowned.
You donât like it?
No, that was impossible.
It must be that this kid couldnât see the power of the mountain river State Painting.
He didnât know what a treasure above the king realm represented!
The old man cleared his throat and felt that he needed to explain.
