Blind Ghostwriter: Starts with the full level of Nine Yang Magic Skill

Chapter 55 Yan Sanniang's Past
"Gu Mo, I appreciate your kindness, but please don't carve wood sculptures for me. Thank you!"

Yan Sanniang followed Gu Chudong to the kitchen to cook, and before leaving, she did not forget to give some more instructions.

Gu Mo smiled helplessly.

The dignified "Little Gu Feidao" is actually despised.

He gently touched the wood carving, frowned slightly, and muttered, "Is it really ugly?"

He was actually imitating Li Xunhuan, using a flying knife to carve human figures. Although Li Xunhuan used the flying knife as a carving knife to carve the person he was thinking about because of his longing for him, it is undeniable that it was a very good way to hone his knife skills.

Especially when carving human portraits, it is not just about carving the appearance and clothing, but also about focusing on the character's expression in great detail, so that it can be lifelike, and even make the character look happy when viewed from the side or sad when viewed from the other side.

but,

Gu Mo could understand why his wood carvings were disliked, because he was blind and a novice. His "Xiao Gu Flying Dagger" was at the highest level and he had mastered the flying knife meaning. However, it did not mean that his carvings could also reach the highest level directly, because Xiao Li Flying Dagger was a martial art, not a carving technique.

Gu Mo was still carving in the yard.

However, he figured it out and decided not to start with difficult portraits. He decided to start with the simplest carving of wooden swords and wooden knives.

Yan Sanniang and Gu Chudong brought out the dishes and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Gu Mo had given up on carving the portrait.

"Sister Yan, I didn't expect you could cook. I thought young ladies like you were all novice cooks, but I didn't expect you to be able to cook so well."

Gu Mo sniffed it and said, "It smells pretty good."

Gu Chudong said, "No, I was shocked just now in the house. When Sister Yan said she would help me cook, I thought she was joking."

Yan Sanniang chuckled and said, "Sister Chudong, who told you that I'm a young lady? I came from the slums. If I didn't know how to cook, I would have starved to death long ago."

Gu Chudong was surprised and said, "Slums? No way, doesn't everyone in the martial arts world say you have a deep background?"

Gu Mo was also a little curious.
Before Gu Mo went blind, he had often heard of Yan Sanniang, the Bone Scraping Knife. She was definitely a well-known figure in the Linjiang County underworld. Besides her beauty, what people talked about most was her background that seemed to have connections with everyone. It was said that she was the type to be able to sit at the same table and have a meal and chat with the prefect of Linjiang County.

There are rumors that she is the daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital, and some say that she is the daughter of a gang leader. However, there are more rumors that she is the mistress and black glove of a big shot. However, none of these have been confirmed. But it is undeniable that her network of relationships is very large and she is very successful in the gang. Both the black and white worlds and even the government give her face. Otherwise, she, a woman, would not be able to open the Zhuifeng Tower. After all, the Zhuifeng Tower relies entirely on intelligence, and intelligence is based on background and network of relationships.

Yan Sanniang slowly swallowed a mouthful of rice, smiled slightly, and said, "I may disappoint you. I don't have the legendary background. I am an illegitimate daughter. I grew up in the slums and was raised by my mother alone. When I was a teenager, my mother passed away. When I was about to sell myself into slavery, my father found me.

But, so far, more than ten years have passed, and I have only seen my father twice, and we have never spoken a word. I don't even know if he knows he has a daughter like me."

Gu Chudong's face was filled with shock and disbelief.

Gu Mo was also slightly surprised that the famous bone scraper Yan Sanniang actually had such an experience.

"My father was indeed a prominent figure, but I can't tell you," Yan Sanniang said. "I lived in that compound for five years before being sent out, saying I was a bad influence. Then they gave me a winery, Buer Villa. You should know that Buer Villa originally sold wine."

Gu Mo and Gu Chudong both nodded. Previously, when Gu Mo and Gu Chudong were carrying the flower thief Zhou Tong's head back to Linjiang City to collect the bounty, and they encountered Yan Sanniang blocking the way to solicit her, Gu Mo had teased her about not selling alcohol anymore.

Yan Sanniang said, "The reason why there are so many rumors about my powerful background in the martial arts world is that they all come from Buer Villa. Buer Villa was originally one of my father's assets. Although it was not valued, it had a different meaning. Suddenly it fell into the hands of a woman like me, which naturally aroused all kinds of suspicion.

This is a good thing for me. I dare not disclose my identity. Of course, I am just an illegitimate daughter and my family will not recognize my identity. So, after the rumors came out, I did not clarify them. Instead, I secretly fueled the waves. When others asked me, I neither denied nor admitted it. But the more I did this, the more suspicious they became.

So, no matter who believed it or not, I would give them some face based on the principle of not offending them. Then I used the tiger's skin to make a coat everywhere, which created a snowball effect. More and more people believed that I had a big background. As more people believed it, those who didn't believe it originally also believed it.

Actually, my only true supporter is Ah Qi. He's a pure swordsman. I saved his life, so he followed me to repay me. He's always been unrestrained in his attacks, killing several wealthy young men. Because he was so decisive, others were afraid to provoke him, thinking I was fearless. And so, they became even more afraid to provoke me. And because of killing those wealthy young men, I earned the nickname "Bone Scraping Knife" in the martial arts world.

After that, Yan Sanniang picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then said with a smile: "How about it, Master Gu, Sister Chudong, are you a little disappointed?"

Gu Chudong shook her head and said, "I'm not disappointed. On the contrary, I feel closer to you. Sister Yan, you're amazing. Although I've been wandering the martial arts world since I was very young, I have a brother who loves and protects me. No matter what, he always stands in front of me. But you... have nothing."

Gu Mo didn't say anything, but just picked up the wine glass and said, "A toast to you, Miss Yan!"

Yan Sanniang smiled and acted shy, saying timidly, "Thank you, Master Gu, for your honor. I am flattered!"

Gu Mo drank the wine in his glass in one gulp and said, "This world is always full of stories. If you don't have a story, you'd be embarrassed to be in it."

Yan Sanniang smiled and said, "Yes, there are many stories in the martial arts world, but few of them have listeners. However, Master Gu, your story is about to become famous in the martial arts world. I came here today to cook a few dishes for you to congratulate you. Fame in the martial arts world is the dream that so many travelers in the martial arts world long for but cannot achieve."

Yan Sanniang picked up the wine glass and said, "A toast to you, hero Gu!"

Gu Chudong's face flushed with excitement and she wanted to pour a glass of wine. Gu Mo curled his lips and said, "Children should not drink."

Gu Chudong stopped laughing instantly.

Gu Mo sighed and said, "This is just the first time, it won't happen again."

Gu Chudong laughed instantly.

"Cheers to Mr. Gu and Miss Yan!"

"Respect to Mr. Gu and Ms. Gu!"

"Cheers to Miss Yan and Lady Gu!"
