Two Worlds: I Became an Immortal

Chapter 93 Parting
Song Yunyuan stayed with Mo Ruoang for a few days, learned some simple carving techniques, and then said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, Song Yunyuan also specifically told the other party that he was currently deficient in qi and blood, but as long as he replenished it, there would be no problem. For example, some herbs such as wild ginseng in the mountains could replenish some of his qi and blood.

Mo Ruoang kept this in mind after hearing this. He had been staying in this mountain for many years and happened to know where some wild ginseng were in the mountain.

After bidding farewell to each other, Song Yunyuan and Ming Wenping also left Qishan together.

"Sir, I have gained a lot from this trip. I should go back now to avoid worrying my mother at home."

Ming Wenping looked at Song Yunyuan with a little reluctance.

He had only spent a few days with the gentleman in front of him, but it was more exciting than anything he had seen in the first half of his life.

The carved duck, in particular, seemed to come alive before him.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, if others told him about it, he would probably just treat it as a joke.

"Well, I have important things to do, so it's really not appropriate for me to travel with you right now."

Song Yunyuan didn't care when he heard this. After saying goodbye to Ming Wenping, he turned around and continued walking along the official road.

After learning the carving techniques from Mo Ruoang for a few days, Song Yunyuan has not yet fully mastered them. He is still unable to carve a living creature.

What made Song Yunyuan curious was that he had also practiced for a period of time. If he really carved a figure, would it be like Mo Ruoang, whose essence would be absorbed?

Or, he can use his own spiritual energy to replace the essence of living beings.

However, the specific details may only be determined after Song Yunyuan has completely mastered the art of carving and then tried it.

Thinking of this, Song Yunyuan immediately opened the record of strange stories in his hand.

Actually, there is a record in this book that says there are rumors of immortal traces in Qingyun Mountain.

Although the people in the book went to Qingyun Mountain and did not see the immortals, from the content of the book, the story of the Dragon King of Jinghe River is true, and the story of the strange man of Qishan is also true.

Song Yunyuan discovered these things by chance.

If that's the case, perhaps it is true that there are immortal traces in Qingyun Mountain, but it is possible that the people in the book did not see the immortal when they went there.

Take the case of the Dragon King of Jinghe River for example. If Song Yunyuan had not heard the conversation with the old turtle, he would not have known that there really was a Dragon King.

Thinking of this, Song Yunyuan immediately headed towards Qingyun Mountain.

Qingyun Mountain was not far from here. Song Yunyuan carved various animals out of wood while heading towards Qingyun Mountain.

"Mother, I'm back!"

Ming Wenping pushed the door and walked into a remote residence in Shangqing Prefecture.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw his mother mending some clothes. This was his mother's livelihood, and she could earn about two copper coins by mending a piece of clothing.

"Ping'er is back?"

The woman at home stood up immediately upon hearing this, and her face lit up with joy when she saw Wen Ping.

"Why did you take so long to be away this time?"

The woman stepped forward and tried to take the box off her son, with a look of concern on her face.

Earlier, my son went out to do some creative painting, like painting mountains and rivers, and he would be back in a day or two. This time, he stayed outside for much longer than before.

Ming Wenping reached out and held his mother's hand, "Mother, my painting skills have improved a lot this time, and I will go out to sell paintings. When I sell them for a good price, I will take you to live in the courtyard and let you enjoy a peaceful life!"

Ming Wenping was very happy when he said this. The woman couldn't stop smiling when she heard this, "Great, my son will definitely have a bright future!"

Ming Wenping smiled when he heard this, turned around and went out again.

When they arrived at the bustling street in the mansion, Ming Wenping opened his box and looked at the scroll inside.

He originally wanted to take out all the scrolls inside, but after hesitating for a moment, he put the earlier scrolls back in place and only took out the most recent paintings.

Compared with the paintings I am currently painting, the previous paintings are really not up to par.

"Isn't this Ming Wenping? I haven't seen him in the past few days. Is he going to search for Miao Chuangzhen again? Has his painting skills improved?"

There are many people buying and selling calligraphy and paintings on the streets here. Ming Wenping is considered a frequent customer here, and everyone around him knows each other.

Ming Wenping lowered his head and took out the painting he had drawn, and said, "Brother Lin, did you sell the painting of the Saint of Painting for a high price?"

They all make a living by selling paintings on this street, and they are all familiar with each other's painting skills and some of the methods that are not presentable.

For example, the person who just spoke, Lin Yu.

They have been using fake calligraphy and paintings here for years to defraud ignorant customers.

Although not many people were fooled, if there was one, the sale of one painting would be enough to support the other party for a long time.

Ming Wenping disdained the other party's behavior, but he could do nothing about it.

"I forgot to tell you that yesterday a wealthy businessman saw my painting and was very satisfied with it. He directly spent 100 taels of silver to buy it! After I close the stall, I want to try the Luo Liuxia!"

Seeing Ming Wenping talking about this, Lin Yu's eyebrows suddenly lit up and he looked extremely excited.

As soon as these words were spoken, the others on the side all showed a hint of envy on their faces.

One hundred taels of silver! That's enough to buy a nice yard.

If you don't buy something too good, you can save some money later and buy yourself a few maids.

In the future, if I find some other way to make a living, I won’t have to worry about food and drink.

Ming Wenping couldn't help but frown when he heard this. "You cheated so much money, and you dare to set up a stall today. Aren't you afraid that the other party will come to your door?"

Earlier, the price the other party sold it for was not so outrageous, and the money was not much.

In addition, the other party will hide for a few days after selling once, and if the loss is small and you can't find him, the matter will pass.

But now, the other party has cheated us of a hundred taels of silver and still dares to stay here. Isn't this courting death?

"Hey, I've made inquiries. This rich businessman is just passing by here. He is in a hurry to transport the goods and dare not stay. Besides, I was able to sell it for such a high price yesterday, so I will definitely be able to sell it for a good price today!"

This is because I feel that I was too lucky yesterday, and I think the same will be true today, so I don’t want to hide for a few days.

Ming Wenping shook his head when he saw this, and inexplicably thought of that gentleman in his heart.

There are strange people in this world. If you cheat one of them, he will suffer a lot.

However, given your abilities, sir, you will definitely not be fooled by this person.

Thinking of this, Ming Wenping had already put out the painting.
