The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 10 Commission
Pei Wuyong let his hair down, tightly grasped Lin Bai's wrist, and there was only a smile on his blood-stained face.

The forest was deep and dark, and the moonlight shining on his face made him look even more eerie and terrifying.

Lin Bai suddenly felt an extremely hot breath entering his body from his wrist. In an instant, his whole body became hot, as if his heart was burning with fire.

Knowing that he was hit by some secret technique of the other party, Lin Bai just endured the pain and said nothing.

Previously, Pei Wuyong faked his own death and tricked the two Taoists into death. Even though he had seen the lesson before him, he still fell into the trap himself!

Lin Bai admired Pei Wuyong's methods even more. This man had endured for more than two hours just to wait for him to take the bait.

But this also shows that the other party is at the end of his strength and may be holding on with only one breath. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to leave here? How could he wait for a small pawn like me?

Lin Bai felt much calmer, thinking that Pei Wuyong might have some unfulfilled wishes before his death.

"Little...little brother, I knew, ahem, I knew you would come back."

Pei Wuyong let go of Lin Bai's wrist and finally spoke. His voice was weak and he kept coughing while speaking.

Lin Bai was freed and quickly stepped back a few steps. He felt nothing wrong with his body, as if the heat that had just entered his body was just an illusion.

But Lin Bai had seen the other party's abilities, and knew that he must have been held hostage by some magical means.

"I was greedy and careless, so I deserve this disaster," said Lin Bai.

"Ahem, little brother, you are too modest. I am... already exhausted. In order to wait for you, I... have been holding on until now..."

Pei Wuyong looked quite apologetic, "Please... forgive me, little brother. You are too cautious. I... I have no choice, ahem, and I don't know... I don't know your character. Although I have a request for you, I can only arrest you first."

So you caught me just to beg me?
Lin Bai realized that now was the time for a game of chess between the two sides.

Although the other party has controlled me, he is a dying man and needs my help, so I have the capital to make demands.

Or they may ask about the internal skills, sword techniques, or even the highest level of light skills.

You have to order something, right?

"Ahem," Lin Bai cleared his throat, bowed, and said, "Senior Pei, you've seen that I have little ability and a small courage, so I'm afraid I can't help you."

Pei Wuyong also coughed twice, and did not respond to Lin Bai's words. Instead, he said, "I see that you are very agile, and it is obvious that you have worked hard. However, you have not practiced the top internal skills, so I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to achieve success in the future... I have a family internal skills method in my arms, and I will give it to you today..."

When Lin Bai heard this and thought of Pei Wuyong's unparalleled sword skills, his heart immediately became hot.

If it really has such power, then this internal skill is a priceless treasure!

"Family inherited internal strength? Can you use sword energy like the seniors?" Lin Bai asked.

"Hehe, I... I have practiced diligently for thirty years." Pei Wuyong had a smile on his face.

"I understand……"

Lin Bai hesitated for a moment, then immediately climbed up the pole impatiently, saying, "Are there any other secrets? Sword and knife skills, or light skills are also fine."

Pei Wuyong smiled and said, "I didn't bring it. Ahem, it's too late. It's too late to tell you. But..."

This is a condition! Lin Bai asked cautiously: "What do you need me to do?"

"I have brought this upon myself... If you have time in the future... If you have time, please go to the Qingyang Sect... The blacksmith shop at the market at the foot of the Qingyang Sect mountain on my behalf. I have a bamboo board in my arms. This is a token. Someone will see you... When the time comes, please pass on my message and tell them... Never seek revenge, and concentrate on cultivation."

Pei Wuyong's voice became weaker and weaker, as if he had exhausted all his strength. Finally, he smiled again, "After you meet that person, maybe, maybe you can ask her to teach you some skills."

It turned out to be just empty talk. Besides, Lin Bai had never heard of the Qingyang Sect.

"How long will it last? What about the heat and poison in my body?" Lin Bai was still most worried about his own safety.

"I have always been happy to take revenge and never threaten anyone. The same goes for you."

The bright moonlight shone through the lush leaves onto Pei Wuyong's bloodstained face. His dim eyes suddenly lit up. "Ahem, there is no heat poison. It's just an internal force that messed up your mind. Otherwise, you, ahem, why would you listen to the nagging of a dying man like me?"

When Lin Bai heard this, he actually believed it in his heart.

"Senior, are you not afraid that I will break the contract?" Lin Bai looked at Pei Wuyong, and Pei Wuyong also looked at Lin Bai with sharp eyes. "What else can a dying man ask for? I treat you with sincerity, and I only hope that you treat me with sincerity."

Pei Wuyong leaned against the ancient tree, coughed twice, and tried to raise his head to look at the full moon in the sky.

"After thirty years of success, I am finally buried in the mountains. The world is like a journey, and I sigh that life is short. Uselessness is ultimately useless..."

Pei Wuyong's tone was extremely sad. He raised his arms and stretched out his hands, as if he wanted to chase the bright moon in the sky. Unfortunately, he was exhausted in the end, and his arms fell down helplessly.

The mountains are cool, the wind is rustling, and there is not a trace of heat.

"Senior?" After a long time, Lin Bai saw that Pei Wuyong was no longer silent, so he stepped forward and sniffed his breath.

This time he really died.

"I'm sorry." After waiting for a while, Lin Bai leaned over and bowed, then took out a cloth bag from Pei Wuyong's arms.

When they opened it, they found only two silver bills, a tattered book, and a palm-sized bamboo board, nothing else.

In the moonlight, there were three unclear words on the tattered book: Wuji Gong.

Lin Bai flipped through two pages and put it away. Then he looked at the bamboo board and saw the words "peace and joy" on it.

After putting away all the things, Lin Bai picked up a lot of dead branches, lit a fire, and cremated Pei Wuyong.

They gathered the bodies of the three Taoists and Xue Ba together, and the four of them gathered together and laboriously found some dead wood, which they also burned.

Others were fine, but Xue Ba was short but fat, and when he was roasted, the smell was terrible.

After an hour of busy work, it was already midnight when Lin Bai finished packing.

With the help of moonlight, he walked down the mountain along a small path and returned to the city along the same route. He was careful on the way and did not meet anyone.

When he got home, he took off his clothes, washed himself in the yard, and put on clean clothes.

I sniffed carefully and there was no smell of blood.

Only then did Lin Bai enter the house and light the oil lamp.

The trip was fruitful. Two thousand taels of silver notes and several bottles of elixir were found on the three Taoists and Pei Wuyong.

As for Xue Ba... Lin Bai didn't even search for him.

Then take out the bamboo board and the internal power secret book.

Under the oil lamp, Lin Bai carefully observed the bamboo board. There was nothing special about it. It was just an ordinary thing.

"Looking at the words on the bamboo board, it should be a gift from Pei Wuyong to his loved ones, maybe his wife, daughter, or beauty..."

Putting down the bamboo board, Lin Bai picked up the secret book of Wuji Gong.

"Wuji means infinite and boundless. Is this inner strength really like that?"

Lin Bai opened Wuji Gong with great anticipation and read it carefully.

It is stated at the beginning that this skill has a total of nine levels. It is very easy to get started, but it becomes more difficult as you progress.

If one can complete the first three levels within five years, he will be considered an extremely gifted person; if he can complete them within thirty years, he will be considered a brilliant talent.

The third level is the limit for most people, but this already makes one a local hero. If one reaches the sixth level, one can be called a master.

Once one has cultivated to perfection, the inner strength will be endless and continuous, with yin and yang blending together, which is a supreme internal skill.

If this inner strength is used as a foundation, even ordinary moves can be transformed into magical ones.

"The last thing I lack is time."

Lin Bai is full of confidence.
