Chapter 671 Fish Soup
After finishing Wen Guying, Master Cang Ming looked at Li Chuan.

Li Chuan stood up straight involuntarily.

Hall Master Cang Ming didn't say anything, just sighed and looked away.

Li Chuan began to think about where to catch up on his sleep. The big tree that Lao Xiaokai found yesterday would be a good place. Oh, and there were seven small perch. After drinking the soup, he could sleep from noon to dusk and then get up...

"Dr. Li."

When Li Chuan heard Cang Ming Hall Master calling him, he quickly collected his thoughts and said, "Hall Master, what's wrong?"

The head of Cang Ming Hall said: "You have been the heir of the Tattoo Scripture for only three years, but you have already accomplished so many great things. You can indeed be called a genius, brave and resourceful. But after all, you are still inexperienced and have too little experience, so you can easily say the word 'try it'."

"I didn't..." Li Chuan wanted to explain.

"You think so too." Master Cang Ming said. He paused, then said, "I see you are not feeling well either. Go and rest first." He emphasized his tone and warned, "Don't act on your own. Those things in your mind are very important to us. Don't act rashly because of momentary unwillingness or stubbornness."

"Do you understand?" Master Cang Ming said this to Wen Guying.

"I understand." Li Chuan said.

"I understand." Wen Guying said with his head lowered.

"Let's heal our wounds here," Jiang Mei said.

"Okay, I will protect you." said the Master of Cang Ming Hall.

Then Jiang Mei sat down and began to heal her wounds.

Wen Guying sat down first, then lay down, and then Li Chuan saw his body slowly sinking into the ground until the soil and grass covered the ground again.

The head of the Cangming Hall sighed heavily. He glanced at Yao Shuang and said to the head of the Chu Sect with emotion: "Your Xuanyue Sect is still good at enforcing the rules."

Sect Leader Chu asked, "I heard that you have been looking for disciples. If you are not restricted by family background..."

The head of Cang Ming Hall shook his head and said, "I want to find someone who can support Jiuli Hall again. The only one who can do that is a demon cultivator."

After listening to a few words, Li Chuan said, "Then I'll go to rest."

"Go ahead." said Master Chu.

Then, Li Chuan took Gong Er and Pang San back to the big tree they were under.

As expected, Lao Xiaokai was still there. When he saw Li Chuan and the other two coming over, he said, "I told you, you're such a grown-up, you can't get lost."

Li Chuan placed the fish basket in front of Lao Xiaokai, took out the broken pot, and said, "Come on, let's make some fish soup."

Lao Xiaokai looked into the fish basket and asked, "Just a few small fish?"

"It was caught by an immortal." said Li Chuan.

Lao Xiaokai picked up a fish and looked at it. After such a long time, the fish was still alive. He asked, "Did you stew them all?"

"They're all stewed." Li Chuan said, "Leave one bowl for Master Wen and Master Jiang later. They're recovering from their injuries."

"What about the hall master and the head of the sect?" Lao asked with a smile.

"There are only seven, it's impossible to divide them all, so let's just leave it like this," said Li Chuan.

"Okay." Lao said with a smile and started to work.

Li Chuan lay against the tree, the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, and his whole body was enveloped in the warmth of the sun. When he was about to fall asleep, the aroma of fish soup wafted out. He looked towards where Lao Xiaokai was, and Lao Xiaokai, who had his back to him, probably heard the noise made by Li Chuan, said, "Wait a minute, I've cooked some porridge, you can have some later."

"Thank you." Li Chuan felt lazy from the sun. He said, "I'll go to bed after eating. I've been staring at the Luoxia Secret Realm all night and I'm too sleepy."

"What did you find out?" Lao asked with a smile.

"I don't know yet." Li Chuan said.

"Are you planning to go in?" Lao asked with a smile.

"I don't know either," Li Chuan thought about what Cang Mingtang master said, "I'll study it after I wake up." At this time, he found that Gong Er and Pang San were not around, so he asked, "Where are my second and third brothers?" "They went to practice swordplay." Lao Xiaokai said, he turned around, "Wait, I'll call them back when they're done."

"We really have to race against time and seize every opportunity," said Li Chuan.

"They seem to feel ashamed that they can't help you," Lao said with a smile.

"They have only been practicing for a few years." Li Chuan said.

"I think they will achieve a lot," Lao said with a smile.

"I think so too," said Li Chuan.

Soon, the fish soup is ready.

After eating porridge and drinking fish soup, Li Chuan returned to the tree, wrapped himself in a blanket, closed his eyes and fell asleep. He slept very deeply, without a single dream, and was completely immersed in darkness and peace. When he woke up, the red sun had sunk into the sunset, and the breeze blew the grass beside his face. Li Chuan felt his vision bright and clear, and his body felt more relaxed than ever before.

Is it the fish soup? Or is it the tea?
No matter, as long as I feel comfortable, Li Chuan sat up, put away the blanket, and brushed off the mud and dust on his head and body. Then, he sat back down and began to recall everything he remembered last night, the pieces of light and runes.

It was a bit messy, he shook his head, took out paper and pen from the Bishui Ring, intending to draw it first, and then analyze it slowly. After laying out the paper and pen, he had an idea and took out the Bodhi beads. After playing with the beads for a while, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked closely and found that there was only eleven beads on the bracelet, and at some point, an extra bead appeared.

"This……"

"What did you find?"

It was the voice of Master Wen.

Li Chuan looked in the direction where the voice came from, and sure enough, he saw Wen Guying sitting under another tree not far away, with his head resting on his crossed hands and a piece of grass in his mouth.

Li Chuan couldn't help but tease him and said, "You came out of the soil?"

"It's out." Wen Guying said.

"So fast? Buried in the soil, the effect is so good?" Li Chuan became curious.

"No, the old palace master arrived, so I came out," Wen Guying said.

"I originally threw away one of these Bodhi beads, but now that one is back." Li Chuan paused and added, "That one was on Prince Su's ship, used to deal with Cui Jushi."

"Throw it over here and let me see it." Wen Guying said.

Li Chuan threw the Bodhi beads over.

Wen Guying took it, looked at it, and said, "I can't see anything unusual. Maybe it's because it's close to the Luoxia Secret Realm. Wear it on your hand and observe its changes from time to time."

After saying that, he threw the Bodhi beads back.

Li Chuan put it on his hand as he was told.

"The old palace master is here." Wen Guying said.

"The old palace master has arrived?" Li Chuan felt more at ease. He stood up with the help of the tree and said, "Should I go see him now?"

"Don't be impatient, wait a little longer." Wen Guying said.

"What are you waiting for? By the way, have you drunk the fish soup?" Li Chuan asked.

"I drank it. Brother Jiang drank it too. It tasted really good. My injuries are mostly healed now." Wen Guying said.

"That fish is indeed extraordinary." said Li Chuan.

"The fish is ordinary, but the person who caught it is extraordinary." Wen Guying said. He looked in the direction of the island and said, "Brother Li, I still want to give it a try. Don't talk, just listen to me." He raised his hand to stop Li Chuan from speaking and said, "I just read the jade slip that Senior Sister Yao gave me. From the information revealed in the jade slip, the stars in the night sky where the ferry is located are returning to their positions. Based on this, Sect Leader Chu and Elder Cang Ming believe that the light beam will fall when the stars return to their positions. They calculated the time to be sixteen years later."

"Sixteen more years?" Li Chuan was surprised. He said, "What Immortal Yun Yi said made me feel that the light will fall after the secret realm is opened."

"The question is, where is the night sky where the ferry is located?" Wen Guying said.
