The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 83
In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and Li Yanran, who was unconscious, had already been placed in Tongqing Temple.

Although Pei Wende was curious about how the old monk would treat her next, he did not stay in Tongqing Temple because of this.

While it was still dark, Pei Wende rushed to Xinkang Town with his fastest speed, and bought some herbal medicines for typhoid fever at the pharmacy in Xinkang Town.

Thanks to the fact that medicine and martial arts have not been separated since ancient times, while Pei Wende practiced martial arts with Zen Master Lingyou and Monk Huiji, he also learned some knowledge about herbs and preparations, so he was able to purchase medicinal materials in a targeted manner.

Otherwise, Pei Wende would have to wait in line to see the doctor first.

Even so, by the time Pei Wende came out of the pharmacy, the sun had already set and it was around three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

According to Pei Wende's pace, he had enough time to rush back to Tongqing Temple before dusk.

"If you think about it carefully, it seems that I haven't gone down the mountain for a long time!"

Ever since the food and living of Tongqing Temple was contracted by the "noble man", Pei Wende had no excuse to run down the mountain every other day.

On the one hand, this made it easier for Pei Wende to practice, but on the other hand, it also made Pei Wende feel at a loss for a long time.

The 17-year living habits were broken once, and Pei Wende, while indulging in cultivation, inevitably also developed a faint sense that things are right and people are wrong.

Before I knew it, I had lived in this world for 17 years, and now I became a practitioner as I wished.

In a trance, Pei Wende even felt that his experience was so unreal, as if he was dreaming.

"I don't know how Gu Changfeng is doing? He should still be improving the design drawings I provided him, right?"

Thinking so, Pei Wende didn't choose to go back to the mountain immediately, but turned around and walked towards Gu Changfeng's blacksmith shop.

It just so happened that the dogleg knife and compound bow that Gu Changfeng gave him before were damaged, so this time he stopped by his place to replenish and upgrade the equipment.

After all, living in the mountains all year round, it is impossible to defend oneself without a good weapon at hand.

......................................................................................................

The Gu family blacksmith shop in Xinkang Town.

Since Gu Changfeng came back from the private school, Gu's blacksmith shop has changed from a purely handmade model of apprentices to a business model of semi-streamlined production.

This allowed Gu's blacksmith shop to build up a huge reputation in a short period of time, and it was already considered a relatively famous blacksmith shop in ten miles and eight towns.

After all, no one would hate ironware with good quality and fast manufacturing speed.

Especially in this quaint age, quality and speed mean everything.

However, as the source of all this, Gu Changfeng is not satisfied with his current business.

Because in this day and age, ironware is not a consumable.

Whether it is the plow, rake, hoe, pick, sickle as production tools.

They are still kitchen knives, spatulas, planers, and scissors as daily necessities.

Even small items such as door knockers, foam nails, and door plugs are semi-permanent items.

Unless it is really broken and unusable, people in this era seldom replace the iron in their hands frequently.

In other words, the market near Xinkang Town is already saturated. No matter how Gu Changfeng strengthens productivity, it will be useless if the demand remains unchanged.

It wasn't until this time that Gu Changfeng suddenly realized that his father had a long-term vision—Xinkang Town didn't need the best blacksmiths.

However, now that the matter has come to this point, Gu Changfeng can only change his way of thinking about solving problems, and start to improve and invent some more useful production tools, hoping to promote the transformation of productivity by then.

Of course, the above words are all Pei Wende's words.

In Gu Changfeng's view, he was only interested in creating some novel things under his influence.

It would be even better if this thing could replace some of the original tools and greatly increase the blacksmith's income.

Therefore, when Gu Changfeng heard that Pei Wende had gone down the mountain again after a long absence, he immediately arranged for the youngest who was at home on vacation to find him.

"Um, so that's why you're messing around here?"

Looking at the half-grown kid in front of him with a look of hatred, it was not the first time that Pei Wende saw the youngest son of the Gu family, but every time he saw him, his head was incomparably big.

He is obviously about the same age as Zhang Chusheng, but the kid in front of him is much worse than the mature and precocious Zhang Chusheng in terms of personality and trouble-making ability.

"Hey, am I looking for you?"

Stretching out his hand to scratch the back of his head, he never thought that he would be caught by Pei Wende near the gambling house, Gu Lao Yao had no choice but to explain like this.

"Do you think I will believe such a lie?"

In fact, Pei Wende just passed by the gambling house, but his senses became extremely sharp after practicing, so he noticed the existence of Gu Lao Yao next to him.

This is a very strange feeling, a change that Pei Wende would never feel when he was practicing alone in the deep mountains.

Both the sense of smell like a hound and the intuition after the synthesis of five senses make Wen Wende able to identify his acquaintances in the crowd at a glance, without even needing to see each other with his own eyes.

It was also through this time that Pei Wende finally understood why practitioners were called "practicers".

Because they are fundamentally different from human beings.

Just like spirits and monsters are to beasts, practitioners can also be said to be a new species beyond the concept of "human beings" in a sense.

This is only the change that Pei Wende has initially experienced, and he has not yet experienced more and more subtle changes.

"Brother Pei, I was just confused for a while, you must not tell my brother and my father about this!"

Seeing that there was no way to fool around, Gu Lao Yao resolutely begged for mercy, but he didn't dare to treat Pei Wende like everyone else.

The reputation of the other party, Pei Bold and Crazy Pei, is not fake. If there is a threat or a fight, it is not certain who will suffer.

"You'd better go talk to Gu Changfeng yourself!"

Not bothering to chat nonsense with such a gambler like Gu Lao Yao, Pei Wende directly stepped forward and grabbed the other party's collar, dragged him and walked towards Gu's blacksmith shop.

Pei Wende's past two years told him that anyone in this world can be trusted, except drug abusers and gambling addicts who can never be trusted.

Especially a young gambler like Gu Lao Yao who is full of lies, if he lets it go, even if Gu's blacksmith shop is made of gold, it won't be able to withstand his consumption.

"Brother Pei! Brother Pei! I know I was wrong, please let me go!"

Trying hard to break free from Pei Wende's hand, Gu Lao Yao realized that he seemed to be in a catastrophe.

If my elder brother really finds out that he has started gambling again, he will definitely cut off his hand first, and even if his father comes, he will not be able to persuade him.
