The production of the Taomu Sword was handed over to Begonia and Peony, and the empty shelves gradually returned to their former glory.
I concentrated on drawing symbols at the table, while Heizi was decorating the second floor.
It was said that they were doing renovations, mainly because they were fighting "ding-ding-ding-dong-dong", and the sound was indeed similar to that of renovations.
When the three girls saw that we were working so hard, they were not idle either.
Haitang and Mudan taught Zhou Jiaonan what they had learned. Zhou Jiaonan was already smart, had good aptitude, and learned quickly.
I finally know why Master Fang gave the Purple Star Sword to Zhou Jiaonan.
I don’t know how Fang Zhenren is doing these days.
The days passed quickly, and snow began to fall outside the store.
I really didn't expect that one talisman, just one talisman, could consume more than a month of my time.
In the past, my master taught me how to draw talisman, and I could get it right in one stroke at most in a week, but the success rate was low, and the talisman I drew at that time might not be effective.
But later on, after practicing slowly, I succeeded. But it took me more than a month to draw the soul-sealing talisman in front of me. I don't know how long it will take to make it effective.
I don't know if Feng Shiyi's action against Wu Ma Sheng frightened the evil spirits in the mountains and forests. These days, there are no evil spirits in the ten miles and eight villages.
However, there are more and more tourists in the town, and many of them even come here to buy our peach wood swords.
Coupled with the fact that there are now three beauties in the store, the revenue of this store will naturally increase.
Dahei is completely different now. I feel that Feng Shiyi asked Dahei to teach him every day.
Now Dahei's temperament and aura are completely different from before.
"It's so cold, should we go up the mountain to see Mr. Zhou?" Heizi sat next to me that day, but it was rare that he didn't have any more bruises on his face.
"Well, it's time to go, and take Dahei to see his wife." As soon as I said these words, Dahei straightened up excitedly, almost obliterating the little temperament he had cultivated these days.
After saying hello to the three girls, we drove off with Dahei. Of course, we had to buy some things before going.
I don’t know if it’s due to the strength of my soul, but walking on the mountain road that used to be a bit strenuous now feels much easier, and Heizi and I are each carrying a large bag of stuff.
The gate of the cemetery was open, and we could smell the aroma of food from a long distance away.
"Old Zhou..." Heizi and I shouted loudly.
"You two guys came here on a meal break, right?" Lao Zhou smiled and appeared in our field of vision, with two extremely cute puppies following at his feet.
Dahei saw his son froze in place, and his wife just followed Lao Zhou out of the kitchen at this moment.
I have never seen animals hug each other as tightly as humans after not seeing each other for a long time, and even Dahei let out bursts of mourning.
"It's been so long since I've been here, let me tell you a story about these days..." Lao Zhou sat down with the rice and looked at me and Heizi with a smile.
"How can you listen to a story without wine?" Heizi said, opening his backpack, taking out a bottle of wine and pouring it for Lao Zhou.
"You guys also want to drink with me." Lao Zhou smiled and took out two cups.
Let's start with Heizi's robbery. Heizi will tell a paragraph, and I will tell a paragraph. I will try my best to use words to completely restore everything that happened when the story happened.
Lao Zhou listened attentively and couldn't help but applaud when he heard the wonderful points.
Then we outsmarted the zombies and went to the ghost market at night to find the master's relatives. Lao Zhou was filled with emotion when he heard this.
Then, we were attacked by Wu Ma Sheng and almost died, but we still kept silent about Feng Shiyi.
We cannot violate his old man's wish to hide his identity. After all, he is now both our grandfather and our master.
After the story was told, the sun was almost setting, and Dahei finally brought his wife back, and he was currently making out with his two sons.
"I can't believe that so many things have happened to you during this period..." Lao Zhou Yangtian sighed.
"Compared with what we did when you were young, these things we did are nothing." I said with respect.
"Oh, you don't need to flatter me. If there is anything that can't be solved in the future, remember to tell me. It's getting late. You can go back." Lao Zhou said and stood up.
"You don't need us to accompany you anymore?" Heizi asked with a smile.
"Haha, I have them with me now." Lao Zhou smiled and looked at Heizi's boy.
"Then please pay more attention to your health and call us if you need anything." I put down the things in my bag and stood up.
"Okay, okay, let's go, Dahei, do your best." Lao Zhou said and squatted down. Dahei came over wisely and let Lao Zhou touch his head.
We just walked on the dark mountain road without turning on the flashlight or talking. We talked enough today.
When we returned to town, we went directly to Feng Shiyi.
"Not bad..." Feng Shiyi smiled and nodded as soon as he saw us.
"Old man, what's good?" Heizi approached curiously.
"Both of them have improved," Feng Shiyi said.
"What improvement?" I was a little confused.
"You think there is only one way to improve the strength of the soul? You are actually improving yourself by drawing the talisman." Feng Shi smiled and pondered.
"No wonder I always felt dizzy at first." I came to my senses instantly.
"Old man, can you teach us how to control our spiritual power now?" Heizi's stubborn problem showed up again.
"There is no limit to learning, and you will never finish learning in your lifetime." Feng Shiyi began to answer inappropriate questions again.
"What do you mean?" I really wanted to hear some mystery, but I didn't dare to lie.
"In our time, after completing their studies, they had to go down the mountain to practice and find the true meaning of Tao in the journey of life." Feng Shiyi suddenly became serious.
"I don't understand what you mean." Heizi frowned.
"Master, let me in. Cultivation depends on oneself. Real cultivation is experience and actual combat. It's time for you to go out and have a try." Feng Shi looked at Heizi with gentle eyes.
"But the master asked me to go to Beiming Mountain after a year..." I was a little confused.
"Your master told you not to leave this town this year? Why are you kid so stubborn?" Feng Shi laughed angrily at me.
"Yeah..." Heizi raised his hand and patted his forehead, as if he understood some incredible truth.
"Old man, is there anything you can do about Xiaotian's hand?" Heizi rolled his eyes, and it turned out that this was what he wanted to ask.
"You still need to cultivate your own way, let's go." Feng Shi stood up with a smile.
Heizi and I had no choice but to exit the door with regret. There were many things we wanted to ask and many things we wanted to learn, but what Feng Shiyi said was not unreasonable.
It was already late at night when we returned to the store, but the three girls were still waiting for us. The steaming food on the table had been reheated countless times.
"Why so late?" The three of them were obviously unhappy.
"What's wrong?" Seeing us dejected, the three of us changed our tone again.
Heizi opened his mouth, but couldn't. He then moved his eyes to me.
"Eat first, we'll talk tomorrow." I said and sat down at the table and picked up the bowls and chopsticks.
Seeing that my brows were furrowed, the three women couldn't ask any more questions. This meal was very depressing.
Lying in bed, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. I kept thinking about Feng Shiyi's words over and over in my mind.
Indeed, if we continue to stay in the small town, we seem to have become a small shop selling souvenirs, which has completely deviated from the original intention of the master when he opened this shop.
Although Feng Shiyi didn't say it, I knew very well that the two brothers Wu Ma Sheng and Wu Ma Yi would definitely not let it go.
"Cultivation of your own way." Thinking of this, I have already made a decision.
At daybreak, I called everyone in the store together and told me my plan.
"Okay, can we go wherever we want?" Zhou Jiaonan immediately became excited when he heard that we were going to travel.
"It seems okay..." I don't have any experience in this area, so I should just go wherever I want.
"I agree." Zhou Jiaonan was the first to vote.
"We also want to look around." Haitang and Peony looked at each other and agreed.
"I can't stay alone." Heizi naturally had no objection.
"Okay, then I'll say goodbye to everyone." I said and took out the phone.
It was still arranged by Zhao Sihai, but this time it was changed to a big restaurant because there were a lot of people coming to see us off.
Even Wang Shiqing and Gao Feng came from the city. When the banquet was over, everyone was a little reluctant to leave, but the most common thing they said was to pay attention to safety.
Originally we wanted to visit Fang Zhenren, but after thinking about it, he should be able to figure it out until this day, and he had made it very clear in his previous letter.
"Okay, let's get ready and let's go." Back in the store, I looked at everyone with a smile.
