Chapter 493: Sending Home

The breeze blew on his face. Seeing Pei Ye walked out of the Cultivation Pavilion, and the sun happened to jump out bit by bit from the east.

Although he hadn't slept all night, he hadn't spent it in bitter thinking or fierce fighting with his mind tense. His True Qi circuit had been circulating without obstruction, so such idle drinking was already a rest.

The drinking and happiness of last night could be considered "flattered" for him. Although he hadn't thought about it at all while pitching pots and playing sword, he couldn't help but be surprised when he walked out of the door that Xu Chuo had actually kept him drinking all night.

This Pavilion Master had always been a mysterious high-ranking person in his eyes. Whether it was people like Qiu Qiu Ji Zi who referred to her as "Tong Jun," or the terrifying influence she revealed when she moved things at will... Seeing Pei Ye often addressed her as "You" when they met, not just because of her seniority and the favor of saving him.

Just as Qi Zhaohua said: "Maintain a suitable distance from the Benevolent Lord."

Seeing Pei Ye felt that he didn't need to maintain much; the two were naturally at a distance of trust without intimacy.

Sometimes they chatted and laughed, which was just a seasoning between official business. More often, she was as deep as an abyss and as composed as a mountain. Seeing Pei Ye put forward what he needed, and she could implement it at will.

And the state of this Pavilion Master who drank with him last night, although she didn't say any heartfelt words to him or have any intimate actions, that lively and natural state must have been seen by very few people.

She also treated him a bit too... equally. Seeing Pei Ye didn't know why he was so favored; perhaps she had indeed known him through letters long ago.

Seeing Pei Ye didn't think much more, carried the wine, and returned to the Mount Taishan medical building, immediately exchanging it with Qu Xin.

The gray-clothed girl took it and looked at it for a long time, finally breaking a hole and tasting it with her finger, and actually tilted her head to look at him: "Stolen?"

"A friend gave it to me."

Qu Xin nodded: "Ten-year Qilin Blood Brew, precious wine, can be used to prepare many medicinal formulas—make good friends with this friend, I'll accept it next time."

She turned and went upstairs.

Seeing Pei Ye immediately took a big step to block her: "Don't try to muddle through, you still have to make up the price difference for me."

"Fine, I'll make up ten taels for you."

"Twenty taels."

"Fine, twenty taels."

"... Then thirty taels."

Qu Xin looked at him.

"Twenty taels is twenty taels." Seeing Pei Ye let her pass.

"The rest will be the postage," he added.

With these twenty taels, plus the fifty-tael banknote borrowed from Qi Zhaohua, and the seventy taels in the Dragon Ring, Seeing Pei Ye now had a huge sum of one hundred and forty taels.

Seeing Pei Ye carried this money and asked for directions, then walked toward the bookstore.

In the bookstore, Seeing Pei Ye picked for a long time, taking the books down one by one and moving them to the carriage. There were books for enlightenment, Confucian classics, poetry, but more were legendary stories and a large number of basic theories of cultivation and swordsmanship.

These things were not rare. Although they were expensive, they couldn't be called secret transmissions of any family. It was just that often only in the Divine Capital could one buy books with such new versions and such complete volumes.

He loaded two boxes of books onto the carriage, and Seeing Pei Ye returned to the medical building.

"You can just transfer these things to the Jade Jade Mountain and ask them to help send them to the Feng Huai Martial Arts Hall," Seeing Pei Ye said after explaining to Qu Xin. He found a quiet room himself, spent a long time writing several letters, and when he reached the last one, he scratched and erased, pondered for a long time, and finally copied out a clear version.

Then he packed these letters separately and tucked them into the books, and said to Qu Xin: "Keep them here for now. Anyway, you are not in a hurry to leave. Wait for two days, and I will bring a few more books, and also exchange for some banknotes to take with you."

Except for medical skills and consultation fees, the girl had no other concerns. After ordering people to settle them, the two parted ways.

At this point, the matter came to an end. What kind of tricks Qiu Tianyu was playing behind the Taiping Taiping Cao Bang remained to be carefully deduced. Seeing Pei Ye walked slowly in the sunset of the afternoon, slowly pacing back to the Sword Cultivation Academy.

In the process, the black cat jumped back onto his shoulder from the eaves beside him.

Seeing Pei Ye hugged it and laughed: "I feel like you're a bit reluctant to leave."

The small beast yawned somewhat tiredly. Over the past few days, it had relied on it a lot to watch the movements of the Taiping Taiping Cao Bang, connect messages, and look after the evidence, so Seeing Pei Ye could draw his sword on the Western Pool without any scruples. After the matter was over, it was still kept at Xu Chuo's side for a few days.

At this time, it raised its jade eyes and glanced at him: "Can't you tell who is Liu Chan and who is Kongming between us?"

Seeing Pei Ye laughed: "You are Red Hare. I'll ride you next time I fight."

The black cat couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him, and took out a pill from the brocade bag under its neck to eat.

"... Can you let me taste this?" Seeing Pei Ye watched it bite it mouthful by mouthful, and couldn't help but whisper.

"..."

"I'm just curious about the effect."

"It's about the same effect as the wine you drank last night."

Seeing Pei Ye was surprised: "What effect does that wine have?"

He tried it: "I didn't see my True Qi grow."

"It's not True Qi, it's the Chi Fire Source."

Seeing Pei Ye was stunned, and sure enough, he found that in his dantian, the fire nest representing symbiosis with the Immortal Hunt was much more active, as if drinking sweet dew. Although the increase was weak, it was real.

"Qilin blood," the black cat said. "It's also the main ingredient of this pill."

Seeing Pei Ye nodded as if he understood: "I should have drunk a few more cups if I had known."

"Work hard, there will be plenty in the future."

Seeing Pei Ye frowned and looked at it strangely.

"It's all for the Northern Expedition," the black cat sighed faintly.

The Sword Cultivation Academy was still a quiet and orderly place, a place of pure cultivation in the Divine Capital.

It was still early, so Seeing Pei Ye took the set of Jade Jade sword theories he brought from Bowang to the Hidden Sword Building, found a quiet corner, sat cross-legged, and flipped through them page by page, occasionally making notes with a fine pen.

From coming into contact with the Cicada Sparrow Sword in mid-August to the beginning of November, Seeing Pei Ye had put the most effort into this sword, and finally reached the peak it promised, making the Jade Jade sword of four hundred years ago reappear on the Western Pool.

At that time, Li Weiru taught him all the sword theories filled with his decades of notes and thoughts. It was precisely by standing on the ladder built by this old man and even the predecessors of Cuiyu that Seeing Pei Ye was able to pluck this Feather Sword. Now he carefully wrote his own thoughts back into this set of sword books. 【Flying Feather Immortal】 might not be the end of Jade Jade, but at least it was the end of the sword book in his hand.

Seeing Pei Ye used up the remaining daylight to do this. After all the sword books were annotated, he felt smooth all over. Without Miss Ming's detailed explanation, he had completed a thorough analysis of a lineage of sword techniques from beginning to end, from sword moves to sword theories, and there were no more shortcomings. It was meticulously and thoroughly fixed in his heart.

Under the quiet moonlight, Seeing Pei Ye rubbed his sore wrist and slowly closed his eyes.

After three days of full comprehension and one night of life-and-death fighting, he reviewed his sword ladder once again and came to this mysterious world.

In the barrenness, the jade cicadas and emerald birds full of spiritual energy landed on his fingers and shoulders, but this time it wasn't just them. Seeing Pei Ye looked up, and cold clouds gathered in the vast sky. Soon, fresh raindrops fell, bit by bit moistening the hard, dry ground. They had a coldness that penetrated the skin, but they were no longer bone-chilling.

A rain in early spring, all things begin to wake up. The pillar sword of spring intent was formed. In this world, spring was ready to come.

Seeing Pei Ye looked down at the wet wings of the cicada sparrow and smiled: "Should plant two trees for you to avoid the rain."

Seeing Pei Ye opened his eyes, left this world, and walked upstairs carrying his sword.

Until he reached a quiet room high up, he knocked on the door. There was a "Hmm?" inside, so he pushed the door open, bowed, and saluted: "Good day, Dean."

Qiu Qiu Ji Zi was looking at a sword classic with deep eyes, raised his eyes to recognize the visitor, and didn't speak.

"I've finished learning "Early Moon North Rain", Dean," Seeing Pei Ye said. "Which one should I learn next?"

Qiu Qiu Ji Zi lowered his head to look at the sword theory he had taken on the same day as the young man but hadn't finished reading yet. In the middle of the night, a nameless fire rose in his heart.

A few quarters of an hour later, the bright moon was in the east. Seeing Pei Ye looked quite happily at the two beautiful new swords in his hand and paced back to the small courtyard in the moonlight.

Everything was the same as a few days ago. Yang Zhenbing was practicing sword move by move, and moonlight was scattered on the ground. Under the shade of an old tree nearby, Yan Feiqing was leaning on a lounge chair, holding a book in one hand and reading quietly. His face was as clear as an immortal, and his other hand was wrapped in thick bandages. ===== CHAPTER 494 =====
