People forge swords in Lizhu, childhood sweetheart Ruan Xiu falls in love with Ning Yao

Chapter 38 Farewell Ning Yao, Convincing Myself

"Om..."

On the bed, Chu Ci closed his eyes slightly, and the free spiritual energy around him was attracted and absorbed into his body.

"call!"

As Chu Ci let out a long breath, his tightly closed eyes opened. After he stretched, his whole body suddenly made crackling sounds like firecrackers.

"I'm finally recovered. It feels so good to feel relaxed all over!"

"Dong dong!"

Just when Chu Ci was about to break through, the person outside seemed to sense that his spiritual power fluctuations had stopped and knocked on the door, saying:
"Brother Chuci, if you have time, you can come out and see Miss Ning off."

It was Ruan Xiu's voice.

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot."

Chu Ci slapped his forehead, quickly got up and walked out of the room. Apart from Ruan Xiu, Ning Yao was the only one left in the yard.

"That guy has gone back to pack his things. I guess she will move to Beijuluzhou with her parents in a few days."

Ruan Xiu mentioned this to Chu Ci, and the guy she was talking about was naturally Li Liu.

The military fortune of Aquarius State has basically been used up. If Li Er wants to break through, he can only go to Uttarakuru State.

Most of Li Liu's inheritance from previous lives was also left in Beijuluzhou. Only by going there could he become stronger as quickly as possible and better manage the cave heaven for Chu Ci.

"Please send Miss Ning off for a while. I still need to help Daddy dig a well."

Ruan Xiu said one last thing to Chu Ci, then walked outside to the construction site and directed several workers to dig a well, which was extremely crucial to the sword that Ruan Qiong wanted to forge next.

"Miss Ning, you must keep this candy well."

Chu Ci handed the wooden spirit bead to Ning Yao, and added a sentence for fear that Ning Yao would not accept it:
"In my hometown, guests must receive a road-pressing gift when they leave, to wish them a safe journey. You can't refuse it, otherwise it will be unlucky, and others will laugh at the host for being stingy and ignorant of etiquette."

The hometown mentioned in Chu Ci is certainly not the small town of Lizhu with its "simple folk customs".

Under Chu Ci's gaze, Ning Yao had no choice but to accept it, and then Chu Ci accompanied Ning Yao out of the town.

When the two men came under the big locust tree, they found that the tree had fallen down. Apart from some remaining dead leaves and wood chips, the huge locust tree had just disappeared.

Apparently after falling to the ground, it was dismembered and dragged away by the townspeople.

After the residents had dismantled the locust tree, they all left. Only a figure familiar to Chu Ci was left, searching carefully among the dead leaves without giving up, as if he was looking for a locust leaf that still had green leaves like the one in his hand.

Chu Ci finally understood what Chen Pingan meant by quitting while he was ahead, and thought to himself that they were just the same kind of people.

If he hadn't been recuperating from his injuries these days, he would have come to pick it up if he missed it. After all, he has a whole world to support, and he can't help but be greedy for money.

"hey-hey!"

Chen Pingan looked up when he heard the noise, smiled at Chu Ci, and then did not disturb Chu Ci and continued his search.

"correct!"

Chu Ci remembered something and said to Ning Yao:
"The Great Sui Prince Gao Zhen left it to me. Don't go looking for him, or it won't make much sense."

Chu Ci recalled the original plot, in which Ning Yao brought a large group of sword cultivators from Beijuluzhou to the Sui Dynasty to look for someone.

Ning Yao looked at Chu Ci for a few times and immediately understood what Chu Ci meant. If she took people to find Gao Zhen, Gao Zhen would definitely be scared to death, and would admit his mistake every time he saw Chu Ci in the future.

In this way, Chu Ci lost the legitimate reason to make a fuss, and it was basically impossible for him to get any big benefits from the Sui Dynasty.

On the contrary, if she did not bring people to find Gao Zhen, the latter would definitely not take Chu Ci seriously, let alone apologize and admit his mistake. At that time, Chu Ci would have much more room for maneuver.

"it is good!"

Ning Yao would naturally agree if it could bring benefits to Chu Ci.

"But you must be careful. After all, it is a dynasty with a strong foundation. An ordinary eleventh-level cultivator may not be able to get any advantage."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure of."

Chu Ci naturally knew this.

"Too!"

The two of them unknowingly walked to the entrance of the town, and Ning Yao said goodbye to Chu Ci:
“Just send it here!”

"Is he going to sneak back this time?"

Chu Ci made a joke to ease the atmosphere of parting.

"Absolutely not!" Ning Yao gave Chu Ci a proud slap on the back of his head and strode away.

"Take care of yourself!"

Chu Ci waved his hand and turned back. He wanted to ask Chen Pingan to get some locust wood, which would be very useful.

However, Chu Ci turned around after walking a few steps, and sure enough, he saw Ning Yao standing in front of him again.

"What's wrong? Did you drop something?"

"Give me candy!"

Ning Yao stretched out his hand to Chu Ci righteously.

Chu Ci was stunned at first, then smiled:
"It's rare. Is this the first time you ask me for something? All the stock is here."

Chu Ci took out a sugar jar from the things nearby and handed it to Ning Yao.

The candy that Ning Yao wanted was naturally not the wooden spirit beads that Chu Ci had just mentioned.

"This time he's really leaving!"

Ning Yao took the candy jar.

"Well, wait for me, no more than two years."

Chu Ci nodded and made an agreement with Ning Yao.

"Whoosh!"

Ning Yao jumped onto the flying sword, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared into the sky.

"Well, today is a good day for a breakthrough!"

Chu Ci held the back of his head with his hands, whistling as he walked back, obviously very happy.

When I walked back under the locust tree.

"Peace, peace!"

Chu Ci greeted Chen Pingan.

"Brother Chu!"

Chen Pingan, who was searching, ran over and said to Chu Ci in a disappointed tone:
"All the stones in the stream have become ordinary."

A way to make money is gone just like that.

"Never mind that. Do you have any big locust tree trunks that you picked up? For example, they are suitable for making plaques, carving portraits, etc."

"There are some."

Chen Ping'an nodded. Compared to the original plot where Li Baoping picked up the items, now Chen Ping'an was picking them up by himself, so naturally he got a lot.

"Brother Chu, if you are, I will go home and drag you two."

"Just put it in the blacksmith shop!"

Chu Ci threw the key and a bag of summer money he got from the woman he killed earlier to Chen Pingan.

Only then did he walk back to the sword pavilion with satisfaction.

On the other side, Ning Yao, who was flying on a sword, no longer had the confidence to ask Chu Ci for candy after she went far away, and her pretty face turned extremely red with embarrassment.

Was I too childish to ask him for candy that children should eat?

After coming to his senses, Ning Yao didn't know why he had been so possessed by the devil at that time.

In the end, he could only murmur with some relief:

Fortunately, I was smart and managed to intimidate him, otherwise he would have laughed me to death.

Ning Yao nodded to himself for being clever and witty, then opened a candy and put it in his mouth, looking back at the town that had completely disappeared from his sight.

Ning Yao couldn't help but recall what Ruan Xiu and Li Liu had said to her before:

"Miss Ning, we have no objection, as long as you can convince yourself."

Ning Yao naturally knew what to convince himself of.

"Ha, man!"
