Volume 8: Seven Weapons: Peacock Feather Chapter 243 Half a Year
Peacock Villa.
Qiu Fengwu practiced sword skills diligently every day, practicing sword skills, and practicing sword skills again.
From morning to night, Su Weiyun could see Qiu Fengwu . Sometimes he would call on the twelve bandits to fight with him, and sometimes he would practice sword moves on his own.
Sometimes, he would take up his sword and sneak out of the village alone at night.
Every time he went out and came back, he was almost always covered in blood and wounds, but every time he returned to the village, his eyes would become brighter and his sword would become sharper.
The only thing Qiu Fengwu never mentioned was letting Su Weiyun fight with him.
——The reason behind this is very subtle, Su Weiyun knows it very well but just smiles and doesn't mention it.
However, it must be said that he indeed worked much harder than anyone Su Weiyun had ever seen, including Mei Rujia. He could even be said to be working his ass off!
This made Su Weiyun more certain of the contents of the secret letter left by the old master Qiu.
Su Weiyun, on the other hand, was quite relaxed. He just spent enough time every day to comprehend the "Withering and Flourishing Zen Technique" in an effort to restore his inner strength, but he didn't make much progress.
This kind of "Zen practice" requires a sudden enlightenment one day, and then rapid progress. If you can realize that little bit of inspiration, everything will go smoothly. If you don't realize it, you will know nothing.
Just as the Great Thunder God Jin Kaijia said, everything in the world is martial arts, and the martial arts in "Zen" are particularly profound, complex, and difficult to comprehend.
Instead, he learned a lot of new knowledge with the help of various hidden weapon illustrations and elixir secret recipes that had been stored in Peacock Villa for three hundred years.
It was after these experiences that he stopped collecting elixirs in large quantities and became more and more cautious about taking elixirs, no longer taking them indiscriminately as he did in the past.
Because some inferior elixirs actually contain a lot of impurities, although they can temporarily enhance a person's internal strength, they will secretly damage the body. Only high-quality elixirs like "Xiao Huan Dan" and "Da Huan Dan" which are mild in nature and have a nourishing effect can be used more often.
Time is like water.
Six months passed quickly, from autumn to winter, and from winter to spring.
The sun is shining, the spring breeze is blowing, and all things come back to life.
The window opened and the gentle sunlight poured in.
There was a desk inside and a man was sitting in front of it.
"Wood grows with spring energy. Spring is good for nourishing the liver, getting up early and going to bed early, and keeping a relaxed mood and limbs open..."
Su Weiyun was reading in the house.
Qiu Fengwu walked over slowly, with a rare smile on his face, and his Peacock Sword was also rarely placed in its sheath.
"Last time you asked me to help you find the 'Three Trouble Grass', 'Lifeless Fruit', 'Death Scorpion', 'Colorful Snake' and other things, were you trying to make some kind of deadly poison that would kill you instantly?"
Su Weiyun laughed and said, "Hahaha, I have nothing to do, so I just spent some time to mix half a bottle of 'Five Poison Divine Water'. After all, I am unarmed and my martial arts skills are low, so I always need something to defend myself."
Qiu Fengwu asked, "You are unarmed? Have you never used a weapon?"
In the martial arts world, those who dare to conquer the world with bare hands are either masters with strong external skills or profound internal skills.
Su Weiyun looked thoughtful, holding up his hand and said, "I originally used a sword, but it was later taken away by Ximen Yu."
Qiu Fengwu asked, "Is Ximen Yu already dead? You even destroyed his lair, and you haven't got your sword back yet?"
Su Weiyun's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he frowned and said, "I didn't find it. I remember he once said: He gave my sword to a person who was in charge of the Qinglong Society."
"The people above..."
Qiu Fengwu nodded gently: "Yes."
He suddenly said, "I came to you to tell you something."
Su Weiyun asked: "What's the matter?"
Qiu Fengwu said: "It's been six months, and my martial arts have improved faster than I thought."
Su Weiyun asked: "Do you mean I can leave?"
Qiu Fengwu hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, if you want to leave, you can leave at any time. My swordsmanship has already reached perfection."
Su Weiyun shook his head and said , "It's not that your swordsmanship has reached perfection, it's just that you have regained your confidence as 'Killer Xiao Wu'."
Between a manor owner and a killer, everyone would naturally think that the manor owner's identity would give people more confidence.
But in fact, it is not necessarily the case. As a killer, he only needs to kill people. All he thinks about is killing people, so his courage and efficiency in killing are naturally extremely high.
But when he became the owner of a manor, there were too many things he needed to take into consideration, the big and small, old and young, maids and servants in the manor, as well as the glory of Peacock Villa for three hundred years... Every battle and every move he made was very likely to determine the fate of these things.
This huge responsibility inevitably makes people cautious, careful, and even timid, because they really cannot afford to make any mistakes.
But Su Weiyun knew that there was a strange rule among many people - the more you didn't want to fail, the more you reminded yourself not to make mistakes, and the more likely you were to make mistakes.
Qiu Fengwu was shocked when he heard this, and seemed to be thinking: "Is that so..."
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "I think you didn't come here just to tell me this."
Qiu Fengwu smiled faintly and said, "I haven't known you for a long time, but you seem to know me very well."
He took out an ordinary invitation from his arms, on which was simply written the word "marriage".
Su Weiyun took the invitation, opened it and saw that it was the wedding invitation of Gao Li and Shuangshuang.
Half a year has passed, but they still haven't forgotten Qiu Fengwu, their only friend, and Su Weiyun, their half-acquaintance.
Just at this moment, a voice sounded in Su Weiyun's ears.
"Order 2: Defeat Gao Li, the assassin from the Qinglong Society on July 15th."
"Reward: One Nine Flower Jade Dew Pill."
"Gao Li..."
Qiu Fengwu continued, "In the past six months, Gao Li and Shuangshuang have found a quiet and peaceful village and are living quietly there. They are living a happy life."
Su Weiyun said: "I hope the Qinglong Society will never find them."
Qiu Fengwu's expression changed, and he sighed again: "This wish... must not be easy to achieve."
Su Weiyun said: "Most of the people who died on July 15th are dead now. No one should know Gao Li anymore. Besides, there will always be places they can't find anywhere in the world."
Qiu Fengwu said slowly: "Don't forget, there is still one person who is not dead."
Su Weiyun asked, " Are you talking about Ma Feng?"
Qiu Fengwu said: "Yes! This person will never give up and will never let go!"
Su Weiyun responded calmly: "Okay, then he will die in my hands."
Qiu Fengwu was surprised and asked, "You want to go out and kill him?"
Su Weiyun said: "By the way, we're going to attend Gao Li and Shuang Shuang's wedding. Aren't you going?"
Qiu Fengwu said silently: "Gao Li did not invite me on the invitation, he invited you."
Su Weiyun and Gao Li don't have a good relationship. Why would Gao Li not invite Qiu Fengwu but Su Weiyun instead?
Su Weiyun said: "He doesn't want you to have any contact with him again and get involved in the troubles of the Qinglong Society. But I'm different. I'm the leader of the Qinglong Society, so I can go, and I can go in your place."
"Because I can never escape."
