In the early morning, there was silence. A ray of light shone in the place where the sky and the earth meet in the east, infiltrating the light blue sky little by little. The new day gradually awakened from its deep sleep.
On the bank of the Yangtze River rolling eastward, Jiangling Ferry was full of people seeing him off.
At the end of the wooden bridge extending into the water, there were three people standing, Cao Yi, Cao Cao, and Guo Jia.
Cao Yi, whose clothes were being blown by the river wind, stood aside and looked quietly at Cao Cao and Guo Jia who were talking.
Guo Jia, who was wearing a light cyan robe and looked refreshed, promised: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely accomplish what you tell me."
Cao Cao shook his head and warned with a serious face: "Those aristocratic families are fickle. If you can do something here, do it. If you can't do it, just take a look at the scenery of Jiangdong. Remember not to take risks."
Guo Jia wants to say more.
Cao Cao put his hand on Guo Jia's shoulder and said from the bottom of his heart: "In my heart, a hundred aristocratic families cannot compare to one Fengxiao."
"Lord"
Guo Jia was very moved.
Cao Cao patted Guo Jia on the shoulder, looked at Cao Yi who was standing aside, cupped his hands and said, "Fengxiao's safety is entrusted to sir."
Cao Yi smiled and said: "Prime Minister, don't worry, Pindao will definitely send the sacrificial wine back intact."
Cao Cao nodded and waved to a large ship moored on the Yangtze River.
Soon, a small boat rippled over in the blue waves.
Cao Yi grabbed Guo Jia's shoulders, stepped on it, and landed lightly on the boat in the water.
The boatman was stunned.
"sail"
Cao Yi said calmly.
The boatman nodded with a dazed look on his face, rowed the oar, and headed towards the big ship.
"My lord, wait for good news."
Guo Jia bowed far away on the wooden bridge.
"Safe travels"
Cao Cao forced a smile on his face.
After a while, the small boat arrived next to the big ship, and the small boat connected to the rope was lowered from it.
Cao Yi grabbed Guo Jia's shoulders and, like a light kung fu master in a martial arts movie, climbed onto the ship easily along the rope.
There was an immediate exclamation on the ship.
This time, the boatman lay directly on the boat.
After a while, a roar sounded:
"sail"
"sail"
…
Not long after, the big ship pulled anchor and set sail, heading east.
However, they could not travel more than a few miles when their way was blocked by a small boat.
There stood an immortal old man on it. No one paddled against the current, but he could stand still in the river.
Guo Jia, who was standing with Cao Yi, saw this scene and frowned: "Could it be that Zuo Ci sent him to stop me from waiting?"
Cao Yi shook his head, raised his hands to the old man and said with a smile: "Senior, are you okay?"
The old man stepped on it and flew through the air like a big bird, landing on the deck of the ship.
Naturally, there was another exclamation of surprise all around.
The old man, or rather Yu Ji, put his hand on Cao Yi's wrist and checked it, frowned and said, "No wonder Cao Cao went around looking for spiritual herbs for you. The spiritual power in your body is less than half of the last time I saw you."
Cao Yi showed a wry smile and said nothing.
Yu Ji took out a brocade box from his sleeve and said, "There is a 500-year-old ginseng in it. Take it to restore your strength."
After thanking Cao Yi, he reached out to take it.
Yu Ji turned his head and glanced at Jiang Mian, and said with a serious face: "Do you know the relationship between Nanhua Immortal and Jiangdong's Sun family?"
The cultivator who protected the Sun family was indeed the Nanhua Immortal!
Cao Yi shook his head slightly.
Yu Ji spoke with a look of reminiscence.
Cao Yicai learned that Sun Quan's father, Sun Jian, had followed the Nanhua Immortal for a period of time when he was young. Because his qualifications were too poor, he was unable to practice and could only return to the mortal world.
When Sun Jian was about to die, Nanhua Immortal came to see him for the last time. He asked Nanhua Immortal to protect his two sons.
Nanhua Immortal agreed on the spot.
Later, Yu Ji, who was also a practitioner, practiced a strange skill. When he was about to achieve success, he could not use force. As a result, he was killed by Sun Ce without the ability to fight back (actually he was seriously injured, and the miraculous skill that was about to become a success also failed).
Yu Ji spent some time, recovered, and went to kill Sun Ce. When he was about to succeed, Nanhua Immortal appeared to stop him. Yu Ji failed, but he still seriously injured Sun Ce. Soon after, Sun Ce died.
Nanhua Immortal blamed himself and promised Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan that he would protect the Sun family in Jiangdong for the rest of his life.
"I'm telling you to be prepared. The decisive battle in Chibi in two months will be very difficult."
Yu Ji's tone was a little heavy.
"Senior's words, Pindao will remember them."
Cao Yi said.
"Take care along the way, and you'll be gone!"
Yu Ji swept through the air and returned to the boat, then headed upstream against the current.
Needless to say, he went to secretly protect Cao Cao again.
…
At night, the bright moonlight decorates the warm autumn night in the south and the entire land. Under the moonlight, the ship, which had been floating for a day, anchored on one side of the river.
In a room with a faint green light in the cabin, Cao Yi sat cross-legged on a futon, his hands folded with a 500-year-old ginseng gifted by Yu Ji.
Traces of pure spiritual energy of vegetation flow along the arms, flowing through the entire body like water, converging into the Dantian, and then spraying out to moisturize the entire body. Then return to Dantian again.
This continued until late at night, when Cao Yi stopped.
The green light also dimmed.
"The Encyclopedia of Spells, Volume 2"
Cao Yi said something to the void.
In mid-air, a small gap opened, and a whirlpool could be vaguely seen, and soon a light blue jade medal floated out from it.
Cao Yi reached out and took it in his hand, and a message came into his mind.
This light blue jade tablet is the second volume of the Encyclopedia of Talismans. It starts with a tutorial on how to draw talismans in the void, followed by a variety of talismans, like an encyclopedia.
After brewing for a full hour, Cao Yi began to try to draw symbols in the void.
The so-called void drawing of a talisman actually means using spiritual energy instead of the previous pen and cinnabar to draw a talisman directly in the void.
In order to master the void drawing talisman faster, Cao Yi chose the healing talisman he was best at.
The index finger and middle finger are brought together to form a finger gun shape. Then gather the spiritual energy on two fingers, concentrate your thoughts, and a trace of grass-green spiritual energy emerges.
Cao Yi drew the talisman like a pen, and the healing talisman composed of spiritual energy appeared quickly, but then dispersed again.
Failed the first time.
Having experienced this kind of thing many times, Cao Yi didn't take it to heart.
Once, twice...
The night gradually passes and a new day arrives.
There were many glowing charms floating in the dimly lit cabin.
Cao Yi sat cross-legged on the futon, absorbing 500-year-old ginseng to make up for the night's consumption.
Bang bang bang...
There was a knocking sound.
"Sir, is it time for breakfast?"
Guo Jia's voice came from outside.
"The poor will not eat"
Cao Yi said without raising his head.
He can pretty much go without food for a long time now.
Guo Jiaoh left with a cry.
