Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 171 The boy first experienced the taste of sorrow, and the pain was so full that it was hard to express

In fact, considering Guo Jing's loyalty and honesty, as well as Yang Kang's wit and cunning, it would be no difficulty for Yang Kang to obtain the method of inheriting and retraining his skills from Guo Jing. The restrictions he made now were just a feint.

Although Qiu Chuji has not yet implanted the demon fetus in Yang Kang, he has already set up obstacles for him.

Purifying the demon fetus and transforming the demon heart into Tao is easier said than done.

Therefore, Qiu Chuji needed to set a few anchor points for Yang Kang to maintain his humanity. Unfortunately, when he arrived, Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo had already passed away. The only ones left who could act as "anchor points" besides himself were Wanyan Honglie, Mu Nianci and Guo Jing.

Possessed by a demon, she is selfish and full of desires, but the Wedding Dress Skill has the effect of tempering her will. Not only that, if she wants to truly master it, she also needs to have absolute trust in another person and be able to entrust her life to him.

Even though Yang Kang sought out such a person with the intention of "taking advantage", the emotional investment was always two-way.

Moreover, the method of breakthrough he obtained from Guo Jing would itself lead to repeated inner torture.

If you believe what Guo Jing says, the bond will be created. If you don't believe what Guo Jing says, your skills will not be pure enough and you will be suppressed by Guo Jing.

"Okay! Let's learn!" Huang Rong made the decision on behalf of Guo Jing.

Although Huang Rong is younger, she thinks much longer-term than Guo Jing.

Her father is Huang Yaoshi, one of the five great martial arts masters in the world. Although he is known for his heresy, how could the daughter of Huang Yaoshi be worthy of an unknown person with mediocre martial arts skills?

Even the most open-minded father can become old-fashioned when it comes to his children's marriage.

If Guo Jing wants to pass the test of his future father-in-law, martial arts is a major hurdle.

Huang Rong's own strength is average, but her vision is very high. She can see that the punch and palm strike that Qiu Chuji just taught her are extraordinary. With these two things as a foundation, she of course has great expectations for the wedding dress magic skill that Qiu Chuji mentioned.

"Okay! Then listen carefully, don't remember it wrong, otherwise if you teach Jing'er to go astray, it will be your fault." Qiu Chuji said to Huang Rong with a smile.

He had absolutely no expectation that Guo Jing could quickly memorize the formula and route of the Wedding Dress Skill.

Of course, although Guo Jing memorizes slowly, he also has his strengths, that is, he can remember for a long time. Once he remembers something, he will not forget it easily. In fact, many people do not have this feature. Some people are good at shorthand, but they will forget most of it in two or three days at most, and completely forget it after a few more days.

The so-called talent of remembering what one has heard, although it seems to be common among time travelers, is truly one in ten thousand among ordinary people.

The reason why Huang Rong's mother Feng Heng died of heart failure after reciting half of the Nine Heroes Manual was not only because of the life-and-death difficulties brought about by her pregnancy and childbirth, but also because a long time had passed and she had forgotten most of the content. Forcing herself to recall it would be very distressing.

Even when Zhang Sanfeng was a teenager, he only remembered a small part of the "Nine Yang Manual" when he heard Master Jueyuan reciting it, and later he derived the Wudang Nine Yang Kung Fu.

Needless to say, the following process of passing on the skills was self-explanatory. Perhaps because Qiu Chuji had once teased her, although Huang Rong had the ability of shorthand, she still asked Qiu Chuji to teach her twice more to ensure that she remembered it clearly before she stopped.

"Little girl! This magical skill of wedding dress can only be practiced by a man with thick tendons and strong blood. Don't try it casually." Qiu Chuji specifically reminded her. In fact, women can also practice it, but it is not suitable for Huang Rong, a little potato from the south.

As for Huang Rong, she was very flexible but lacked strength. She practiced for three days and then stopped for two days. She relied entirely on her talent and family background.

By the time of The Return of the Condor Heroes, even though she had many magical skills and a father who was a master of alchemy to help her and provide her with resources, she was still only able to fight Li Mochou on equal terms. This is enough to show how lazy she was in practicing martial arts.

Now that Guo Jing is teaching her martial arts, her lack of skills can be made up.

"Tsk! I won't learn such stupid Kung Fu!"

"I'm just waiting for Brother Jing to pass on his skills to me so that I can reach the sky in one step." Huang Rong was obviously very clear about the reason why Qiu Chuji taught Guo Jing the Wedding Dress Skill in front of her. Looking at Qiu Chuji again at this moment, she suddenly felt that this big nose was much more pleasing to the eye...than that blind man Ke.

She has been following Guo Jing these days and has participated in all the affairs of the Yang family. She is very worried that Qiu Chuji and Ke Zhen'e will match Guo Jing and Mu Nianci up by force.

Now it seems that the bull nose in front of us is obviously a good one.

"You must remember that after Jing'er passes on his skills to you, you will be weak for a period of time and will need a lot of nourishment." Qiu Chuji continued to remind him.

Huang Rong immediately said, "No problem. I'll use my father's Nine Flower Jade Dew Pills and Impermanence Pills to nourish Brother Jing's body. He will recover soon."

Qiu Chuji laughed immediately!

This is so filial!
I wonder what kind of expression Old Huang would have if he heard these words in person. It must be very interesting.

“There is no need to harm your father. There is a valley outside Xiangyang City where an old friend once lived in seclusion. He raised a lot of Bosu snakes in the valley, and there was also a big eagle guarding it. When you get to the valley, just mention Dugu Qiubai to the big eagle and ask it for snake gall to replenish its body. It will definitely not refuse.” Qiu Chuji simply pointed out the location of Dugu Qiubai’s sword tomb to Guo Jing and Huang Rong. As for whether this would affect Yang Guo’s opportunities in the future?

Now that he has come to this world, it is still unclear whether there will be Yang Guo in the future. There is no point in worrying about it.

After explaining everything to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, Qiu Chuji left the room. About an hour or two had passed, but the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan were still guarding the door, obviously worried about their silly apprentice. The table in the yard was full of dishes, all thanks to Mu Nianci. When seeing Qiu Chuji coming out, Zhu Cong, the second of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, immediately said, "Master, you've worked hard! Come... the food and wine are ready, let's have a few drinks first."

Mu Nianci immediately said, "The hot dishes are cold. I'll heat them up."

Behind Qiu Chuji, Huang Rong opened the door and immediately said, "Sister Mu! I'll go with you."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Chuji immediately smiled and said, "I know that Island Master Huang is a skilled cook and can be considered proficient in everything. The little girl has a family background in cooking and should be an excellent cook."

Huang Rong asked, "How did you know that I'm a good cook?"

"Today, I will use the dishes prepared by Sister Mu to make a colorful stew for you. Tomorrow, when I buy some vegetables, I will show you my true abilities."

She saw that Qiu Chuji had a lot of useful information in his hands, and it was obvious that she wanted to make the most of it for her brother Jing.

Little did she know that this would slightly change the originally unfavorable impression that the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan had of her.

When the 'colorful stew' mentioned by Huang Rong was served, this 'good impression' quickly conquered Han Baoju, Nan Xiren, Quan Jinfa and others. Although Ke Zhenwu had a crooked mouth and a look of resentment on his face, it did not prevent him from eating enthusiastically and he kept picking up his chopsticks.

Mu Nianci’s cooking skills are actually quite good, but the dishes she makes are all home-cooked flavors. Huang Rong, on the other hand, seems to have the magical power to turn ordinary dishes into something magical. Simple dishes immediately become more flavorful after being modified by her skillful hands.

During the dinner, Mu Nianci also mentioned in passing that she had met Hong Qigong in her early years and learned some martial arts from him.

Qiu Chuji also took the opportunity to suggest that he would teach her a set of body and sword techniques to protect herself.

Once Yang Kang is possessed by the devil and learns superior martial arts, even if the upper limit of this world is very low and Qiu Chuji tries to control him, Yang Kang will probably become a great devil first. This is inevitable.

As the woman of a big devil, it would be unacceptable if Mu Nianci's martial arts skills were too poor.

If anything happens to Mu Nianci in the future, Yang Kang’s transformation into a demon will become even more difficult to reverse.

Since Qiu Chuji wanted to make a plan, of course he had to take precautions first.

But when they were halfway through the meal, Zhu Cong suddenly seemed to lose his sight and mentioned the fact that Guo Jing had a fiancée in Mongolia. Although Qiu Chuji did not add fuel to the fire by making sarcastic remarks, Huang Rong was already a little angry. Guo Jing was born with a poor tongue, and facing the angry Huang Rong, he could only say that he would not marry Hua Zheng, but he was unable to appease her.

So Huang Rong left in anger, and Guo Jing hurriedly chased after her, and soon the two disappeared from everyone's sight.

······
It's late at night and no one is talking.

Wanyan Kang sat alone in the small house where his mother often lived, trying hard to smell the scent of his mother that lingered there.

This familiar smell and environment easily gave him the illusion that his mother had never left.

The reason why he turned around so numbly on the street before was not because he was cold-hearted, but precisely because he had not yet accepted it.

He failed to accept the change in his identity, and failed to accept that his once happy family suddenly fell apart.

Everyone accused him of being greedy for wealth, but few people cared about him. In that short day, he lost his father, mother, biological father, and almost everything he cherished.

Only Mu Nianci, who had the same experience as him, could understand his feelings.

That's why they came together so quickly, like two orphans huddling together for warmth, sniffing each other's warmth, crowding together to survive the cold winter.

Wanyan Kang took down the winnowing basket that his mother Bao Xiruo often used from the shelf nearby. There were some sundries such as needles, thread, and cloth strips in it. Although Bao Xiruo was a princess, she had been living the same simple life as she did in Niujia Village for more than ten years, to show that she had not changed her original intention.

Wanyan Kang searched bit by bit and found a small purse with a plain pattern. This purse was originally made for him by his mother. He thought it was too plain, so he did not wear it. But now he saw that the pattern on it had changed a little, and the auspicious cloud pattern was half inlaid with gold thread.

The tears that had been stuck in my throat and couldn't come down suddenly began to burst.

He held the small purse and cried heart-wrenchingly.

This unfinished little purse was like a heavy blow to Wanyan Kang's head, making him suddenly remember that he really... lost his mother and could never find her again.

"Cry! Cry... I will take you to worship her." A voice sounded from behind Wanyan Kang, scaring him.

Wanyan Kang turned around suddenly and saw the person coming. Although he tried to pretend that he didn't care, his voice was still trembling: "What are you doing here? Are you trying to pretend that you are so kind and compassionate?"

"I don't need it! If you came here to kill me, you could have taken my head right now."
