Chapter 108: Eight Months Gone During this period, Chen Huaian went to see Chu Zangfeng and gave him a few jars of peach blossom wine. "These wines need several days to be drunk. The longer they settle, the better." "Yeah." Chu Zangfeng still spoke briefly. Chen Huaian didn't say much either. He put down the wine and turned to leave. Chen Huaian left a few jars for Shangguan Yunxi. The reason was very simple. When he was brewing wine, Shangguan Yunxi was watching him right next to him, and he took it away almost the moment he finished brewing. A month is a long time, but also short. On this day, Chen Huaian was leaving. Xu Changyin came to see him and gave him many things. "Junior brother, take these." Xu Changyin gave him many bottles of medicine and many formations that were easy to carry. "Second Brother, there are too many of these things. It's not convenient for me to carry them." "It's okay, the old cow will carry it." Old Cow: “!?”
Chen Huaian couldn't refuse Second Senior Brother's kindness, so he had to accept those things. In fact, Second Senior Brother was not only like this to Chen Huaian, he was like this to every disciple of Shushan. Whenever a disciple went out on a mission, he would always show concern for them and give them what he could, just hoping that they could return safely. Chen Huaian said goodbye to Xu Changyin. When he reached the gate of Shushan Mountain, Xu Feng suddenly ran over and said, "Huaian! Now that you're gone, I don't know when we'll meet again." "I can't bear to leave you!" As Xu Feng said this, he wanted to give Chen Huaian a big hug, but Chen Huaian dodged sideways for no other reason than that Xu Feng's snot was flying around and he didn't want to have snot on his clothes. "You don't have to do this. I will be back." "I know, but we brothers have a deep bond. I'm just worried that you might encounter danger outside and won't be able to come back." Xu Feng said it sincerely, but Chen Huaian didn't believe it at all. "Keep your hands still." Xu Feng's hand reached out to Chen Huaian's waist at some point. There was a bag there, which was a bag of money. "Ahem," Xu Feng, who was seen through, coughed twice in embarrassment, "Hey, I want to buy something for Nalan Yu, but I'm short of money, so I want to borrow some from you, Huai'an." "No money." Chen Huaian said and left. Xu Feng watched him leave from behind, "You must come back safely." After he finished speaking, he tapped his head gently and said, "Look how stupid I am. Your name is Huai'an. What danger can you encounter?" After he finished speaking, he walked towards the mountains and rivers, playing a little tune, which was completely different from his previous appearance. Chen Huaian walked out of Shushan with a slight smile on his face, "This guy is really thoughtful." He took out a bag from his other waist. He only had one bag, and it was obviously given to him by Xu Feng. "Come on, Lao Niu, Xu Feng is treating us, let's go eat something delicious." "Moo!" (Second uncle!) Chen Huaian laughed, "Enough." …… Chen Huaian and Lao Niu traveled eastward, and finally stopped after walking for nearly eight months. When they left Shushan and traveled eastward for a month, they could still see a few people on the road, but after the third month, they almost saw no one. Their speed was already different from that of ordinary people. When they were not very strong before, it only took them a few months to go to Shushan. Now that they are stronger, it has taken them another eight months. Even if Lao Niu had a map, they didn't know where they were.
"Old Cow, when can we see the sea?" "Moo." (Maybe a few months.) "Is there a specific time?" Chen Huaian asked. Lao Niu said a few months, but he couldn't estimate the time accurately, which made him a little depressed. "Moo." (Maybe two months, or three months, but I'm sure it won't be more than six months at most.) "It's the same as if you didn't say anything." Chen Huaian had no choice but to keep moving forward. Fortunately, when he left Shushan, he bought a lot of seasonings and a pot, so that they didn't have to eat barbecue or raw food for two out of three meals. Chen Huaian looked at his own panel; [Name: Chen Huaian, Age: 40] [Lifespan: 288, Bones: Ordinary] [Skill: LV6 Phantom Flow Sword Technique (76%)] [Skill: No Return] [Level: LV8 (21/100)] 【Current effects: increase life span, dredge meridians, Drive away the tide and warm the body, improve your understanding, pray to the gods and ask for divination, and paint in ink and color. 】 [Asking for divination: Divination is conducted every day, and can be divided into small good luck, good luck, great good luck, small bad luck, bad luck, and great bad luck. ] 【Ink and Color: Use the power of the spirit to paint ink landscapes.】 [Today’s lifespan increase: two hours] [Disease: epileptic laughter disorder, which can be gradually treated by Bie Wugui. Current treatment progress: 48%] These days, he often practiced the Huanliu Sword Technique. If his proficiency in the Huanliu Sword Technique was high enough at that time, he was confident that that strike could directly kill the Third Elder. Therefore, during the eight months of walking, he devoted most of his energy to improving his proficiency in the Huanliu Sword Technique, and Wugui's proficiency fell behind a little. Moreover, it becomes more difficult to improve proficiency as time goes by. It is not easy for him to improve so much in just eight months. "My proficiency in Glee is about to break through 50%. I wonder if the system will give me any rewards when it reaches 50%." After Wugui’s level broke through last time, he really liked the ink painting given to him. "Old Cow, is the soup ready?" "Moo." (Almost. Almost.) "That's not right. I can smell the fragrance, why isn't it cooked yet?" Chen Huaian frowned in confusion. He walked to Lao Niu and found that Lao Niu was drinking soup with a spoon. "Old cow, you beast! Leave me one bite." "Moo." (How come your nose is so sensitive? I only took three sips. Don't be impatient.) "Three mouthfuls? You are a glutton! You've almost finished drinking, shut up!" Chen Huaian said as he tried to snatch the spoon from Lao Niu's hand, but Lao Niu dodged him. Although the old cow is huge in size, it is quite fast. It dodged and picked up the pot, then started drinking from it in big gulps. Chen Huaian wanted to stop it, but before he could reach out his hand, the old cow put down the pot. Chen Huaian knew that Lao Niu had finished drinking the soup. "It seems like I'll have to compete with the old cow in wits and courage next time I eat." After Chen Huaian finished speaking, the old cow burped, with a small branch in its mouth... Chen Huaian: “…” Chen Huaian sometimes felt that Lao Niu was just a human being, just like a cow.
"Are you full?" Chen Huaian asked with a gloomy face. "Moo." (I'm full.) "Want some beef?" How could Lao Niu not understand the meaning of Chen Huaian’s words? "Moo!" (Help! The cow is being killed!) The old cow's face showed a look of fear, as if it was very scared. "Scream, scream as loud as you can, no one will save you here." Chen Huaian walked towards Lao Niu with a wicked smile. Chen Huaian stabbed out with his crutch, but before the crutch touched the old cow, the old cow fell down. "Moo." (Ah, I'm dead.) Seeing this, Chen Huaian took back his crutches and said, "Let's go." The old cow stood up instantly. Chen Huaian smiled slightly. The world is always in a hurry, but there are always people... and experts who understand your weirdness. (End of this chapter)
