Chapter 140 A Half Part of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction
In the courtyard of the school, Mammy Li was busy packing Su Li’s luggage. All Su Li’s personal property was almost here. She was driven out by Mam. Su-Cui early and had nothing in the Su Family in the Dasu Town at all.
“Is Second Sister ready? We will depart in two days.”
Su Qingtan’s gentle and clear voice came from the outside of the courtyard. Su Li looked up and saw Su Qingtan’s body in a silver brocade robe. His long black hair reached his back with a wooden hairpin. He bent down and passed through the door of the courtyard. The long hair behind him immediately slipped to his chest.
Seeing Su Li holding a book on the second floor, Su Qingtan smiled with a row of white and neat teeth. Only in front of his Second Sister, he could show such a bright smile without any scruples. He wouldn’t do that before anyone else, even his mother.
“Second Brother!”
Su Li bounced down the stairs with her long hair blown by breeze from her back, shining with the unique agility of the girl. Su Qingtan was softened when he saw her. Surviving from so many hardships, Su Li could still keep such a pure mind. Such a sister was really the most precious treasure in Su Qingtan’s life.
“Mammy is busy.”
looking at her Eldest Brother who was much taller than her, Su Li was extremely quiet. Her simplicity had long disappeared with the experiences of her previous life. When she faced the Su Family, Qi Xianqing, Wen Ruomin, and Yan Shixun, those who were kind to her, she always maintained a vigilance which had been imprinted in the bones.
But in front of her Eldest Brother, she definitely didn’t pretend. She was truly happy and was in real peace of mind.
Although he was related to the Yinmo Cult, Eldest Brother was really great since he could become famous as a teenager in this life, and he also obtained the fourth rank of official position, and his talents could be put to good use!
“Well, well, you have plenty of time to be together after you went to Yunjing. Can you spare some time to me?”
Instantly, a familiar but strange voice came from the door.
Su Li felt slightly shocked and she knew the identity of the person. But she did not expect him to come back at this time!
Su Qingtan stepped forward to protect Su Li. He immediately looked back and was astounded. Then he asked, “Dr. Qi? How do you…”
Qi Xianqing was standing at the door in clothes which were not dirty but absolutely not clean. Su Li could see at a glance that he had not taken a bath for at least two months!
Qi Xianqing came over and patted Su Qingtan’ shoulders with admiration, and then he said, “You didn’t let me down. Now you are working in the Supreme Judiciary and are powerful enough to protect your sister. But remember that don’t be conceited and complacent! There would be more trouble in Yunjing than in Qinghe Town.”
Su Qingtan’s vision was different from that of the past. Now he saw Qi Xianqing as if he faced the head of the academy who combined profundity with virtue in the National Academy or the gallant general in the horse ranch of Yunjing!
“Mr. Qi, what are you…”
Su Qingtan wanted to ask him something, but Qi Xianqing waved his hands to stop him, and then Qi Xianqing said, “I am just a farmer now. You want to bring the girl to Yunjing and it is a good thing, but your Second Sister is also the first talented girl in Qinghe Town. Her talents couldn’t be forgotten.”
“Mr. Qi, I…”
Su Qingtan felt helpless but there was no such a thing that could satisfy both parties in the world. If he could let Su Li go to the National Academy in Yunjing, he would arrange it for her. Unfortunately, the National Academy was in high rank and he had no say there. Therefore, he had no right to arrange that.
“I surely know that you can’t do it. I will arrange that. Leave us. I will talk to the girl alone.”
Qi Xianqing drove Su Qingtan out of the courtyard. If he came back late, there would be a lot of trouble. There were too many people in Yunjing prying for information. He didn’t want to expose his whereabouts too early.
Bang!
Su Qingtan rushed out of the courtyard. He turned his head and wanted to say something, but the door was closed. He could not help but smile.
After closing the door, Qi Xianqing looked at Su Li who was standing in the courtyard happily. He was angry at once and said, “You are such a reckless girl! Why don’t you consider your own life? Think about it carefully. When I was not around you, how many times did you almost die? I have taught you how to practice martial arts. You need to use them when you are in danger!”
Looking at exasperated Qi Xianqing, Su Li resisted the impulse to laugh. She lowered her head and said with an expression of grievance, “But I can’t beat them…”
Eh!
Qi Xianqing patted his head. He was too angry to think clearly. Whether it was Jin Cheng’ao or the group of scoundrels of the Lianshi Cult, Su Li couldn’t beat them at all.
“Let me see if you were slack on your cultivation during this time.”
With this in mind, Qi Xianqing waved his hand. A hint of cunning flashed in Su Li’s eyes and she moved her feet quickly. In the blink of an eye, one of her small fist appeared in front of Qi Xianqing.
Bang!!
Touching his sore eyes, Qi Xianqing felt a little confused. Was he accidentally beaten by his apprentice? He was on the go for days. Was he too tired?
No!
Qi Xianqing thought about something and instantly felt excited. He grabbed one of Su Li’s wrist!
Su Li immediately felt a homogenous vital energy flowing into her tendons and vessels. But, compared with the black vital energy that she had cultivated, the vital energy was not pure enough.
Su Li knew that this was because of the fact that Qi Xianqing had only half part of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction.
“It turns out that he has been stuck in the inborn peak. But unfortunately, it is too difficult to break through that hurdle in the world.”
Thinking of this, Su Li slightly held the pubic region and only showed the cultivation of her acquired eighth hurdle.
But even so, Qi Xianqing was completely stupefied by her.
The girl… in only six months had reached the acquired eighth hurdle from the acquired third hurdle!
He remembered when his master taught him to practice. He was highly praised by his master for reaching the acquired eighth hurdle at eighteen. He was very talented. Although he didn’t become a Young Master, he was more outstanding among the same-aged boys who practiced the martial arts. His master considered himself inferior to him.
But the girl was only sixteen years old… Qi Xianqing couldn’t help but breathe when he thought of this. Would he cultivate a Young Master at such an old age?!
Thinking of this, Qi Xianqing couldn’t help but stop shivering with excitement. and He immediately abandoned the life plan that he originally prepared for Su Li. Tao modeled itself after nature. Such a talented girl should not be bound by him. She should develop freely. He only needed to control the direction of Su Li’s growth and ensured that she would not be led astray.
If it was because of his rules and regulations that Su Li couldn’t break through the inborn hurdle, when he died, he would be ashamed to see his master.
“Li, how did you practice? I guessed that you could have reached the acquired fifth hurdle. I didn’t expect that you broke three hurdles more. Is it because that you have ate something?”
Qi Xianqing stopped thinking so much and asked nervously. Although Su Li’s foundation was stable, she might have taken an elixir of evil cult. He had to ask clearly.
Su Li smiled and said, “Master, follow me, please.”
Although he was hypocritical in previous life, he even participated in the martial arts team to suppress her, after all, it was not his fault. His selfless dedication in this life was enough for her to repay him.
She didn’t like owing others and didn’t like others owe her. Some accounts should be settled in advance so as to avoid trouble later.
Indifference flashed through Su Li’s eyes, unfortunately, Qi Xianqing followed behind her and could not see her face at all. He looked a little excited.
When they came to the room, Su Li asked Mammy Li to go out, and then she took out a dark yellow bark paper from the hidden grid. There was no name on the paper. The surface of the paper was slightly ruined, but the words were still clear. Qi Xianqing knew at first glance that it was a very old thing.
Seeing Su Li hand over the scroll, Qi Xianqing felt puzzled, but he still took it over and spread it out. When he saw the first line of words, his eyes were opened bigger than a brass bell!
This was the other half part of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction he had searched for many years!
“I spared no effort in searching for it and now it was in front of me!”
Qi Xianqing held the scroll in his hands tightly, and his old eyes were slightly wet. Only he knew how many generations had searched for this half part of the Collection of Poison. He thought that he would never see the half part of the Collection of Poison in this life. He didn’t expect that Su Li suddenly gave him such a big surprise.
“Where did you get it?”
Looking at Qi Xiaoqing weep bitterly, Su Li smiled and said in a low voice, “In the prisoner camp outside the Qinghe Town. I felt the call in the unseen world and dug it out from the soil.”
The prisoner camp…
Qi Xianqing sighed when hearing Su Li’s words. He didn’t expect that the most important Collection of Poison was hidden in the dirtiest place in the Qinghe Town. It was no wonder that he went anywhere and could not find any clue.
That meant that Su Li had a relationship with the half part of the Collection of Poison, otherwise he didn’t know when the half part would appear in the world.
Su Li saw Qi Xianqing’s expression constantly change. He was sometimes happy and sometimes sad. A hint of profound meaning flashed through Su Li’s eyes.
She got the Collection of Poison in previous life thanks to those prostitutes who bullied her. If they didn’t put her head in the soil brutally and she was almost suffocated, she couldn’t notice the strange smell of the soil. It was the strange smell that pushed her to dug curiously, and then a She-Devil came out in previous life.
Qi Xianqing lived for hundreds of years. He had extraordinary knowledge and superb cultivation. He read a few times this half part of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction and had borne the whole Ghost Valley Meditation Direction in his mind. Then he carefully rolled the scroll and took out the piece of human skin. He gently put the two items in Su Li’s hand.
“Li, you have a relationship with them. I cannot keep them to myself. I have the chance to witness the whole Ghost Valley Meditation Direction and I am perfectly satisfied. There were few people in the Ghost Valley. Since you are my last apprentice, you will be the head of the Ghost Valley of the twenty-eighth generation in the future. You should take care of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction and the secret methods. Don’t lose it.”
Su Li felt astounded. Although she knew that she was the last apprentice of Qi Xianqing, she did not expect that he would value her so much. She always regarded Qi Xianqing as a convenient shield. The relationship between her and Qi Xianqing was more like a trade in her view. He gave her the first half part of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction and she gave him the other half part. He gave her the secret methods and the disguise skill and she would compensate him for other things in the future…
“A teacher for a day is a father for life.”
Su Li lowered her head and rolled her eyes. She sneered at him secretly. She did not expect that Qi Xianqing who led a wandering life in martial arts circle would keep his traditional and simple thoughts. He really regarded her as his own child instead of a tool he controlled to strengthen himself.
Qi Xianqing saw Su Li take over the scroll in his hand slowly. He smiled contentedly and felt relieved. He came back in a hurry to see how Su Li’s life was, but now he knew that this girl was very lucky. It was not necessary for him to worry about her future in the coming days.
Thinking of this, Qi Xianqing touched Su Li’s long black and bright hair and said kindly, “Li, what do you want to do when you go to Yunjing? You can tell me and maybe I can help you a little bit.”
Su Li squinted her eyes when hearing Qi Xianqing’s words. She smiled and revealed a pair of canine teeth, and then she said, “I know that my talent and knowledge are in a low level, and I am afraid that I may shame you. I want to read more books, but if that is the case… I won’t have much time to practice the martial arts. What should I do?”
