Immortality Path: From the Blind Man at the Pharmacy Chapter 135 - 99, 100. Traveling a thousand miles to say goo
Though it was a winter day with dry waters, a cold tide still rushed forth.
The chilly currents carried along a woman dressed in cyan, her face pallid. Upon closer inspection, the figure was almost transparent, or more precisely, it was not a body but a strangely "concentrated" Yin Soul.
This Yin Soul drifted downstream, seemingly aware of the events that had transpired.
She had co from a thousand miles away, and in the ti it takes a wave to crash, she reached the great river outside Hanping Prefecture.
Many corpses lined the riverbank.
One by one, they abruptly propped themselves up and turned their heads eerily toward the direction of the Prefectural City.
They walked briskly, only to encounter the "Manifestation Water" checkpoint of the city gate.
The Ghost Servants perished completely, but each scread piercingly before they "died."
"Song Cheng, an old friend invites you~"
"Song Cheng, an old friend invites you~"
The sa eerie shout arose from all directions, sending chills down the spine and exuding a creepy atmosphere.
Such a bizarre event, especially involving a prominent figure like Song Cheng, could not be ignored by the guards at the city gate. They quickly dispatched soone on horseback to the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall to report to the External Affairs Envoy on duty this month.
Upon hearing the report, the External Affairs Envoy knew the matter was not simple and imdiately went non-stop to the An Residence to visit Song Cheng.
At the ti he relayed the news, Song Cheng was in the training ground casually instructing the martial artists of the residence, including Zhao Hua...
He had always held his third younger brother in high regard, so these days, after each training session, he would also press on Zhao Hua’s back to help channel his force.
With the pills from Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple, Song Cheng’s guidance, and "cheating-style assistance", Zhao Hua’s cultivation speed was very fast, and half a year since coming to the Prefectural City, he had finally stepped from Great Achievent to Perfection in the Force Realm, and was currently practicing the force channels around "Water Bird Force" while simultaneously comprehending the Form Realm.
Although it was only a complete mastery of the force, it was still quite comndable.
At that mont, when the servant reported the visit of the External Affairs Envoy from the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall, Song Cheng instinctively sensed that sothing had happened.
He waved his hand, saying, "I’ll be right there."
Then he patted Zhao Hua’s shoulder and said, "Co with ."
The two headed to the main hall.
The External Affairs Envoy recounted the strange occurrences at the eastern gate.
Song Cheng, lost in thought, said, "I will go and see."
The External Affairs Envoy didn’t offer words of caution like "Uncle-Master Song, be careful of deception"; although Song Cheng was young, he held a significant place in their hearts.
So he rely asked, "If you need to arrange for people, just command ."
Song Cheng nodded, saying, "Thanks, but there’s no need for now."
Actually, just then, he already had a premonition because his eyes were itchy, and a call from the east was giving him a sort of "telepathic" understanding.
The External Affairs Envoy didn’t say more, bowed with clasped hands, and departed, leaving only Song Cheng and Zhao Hua in the main hall.
Zhao Hua might not know about Yune’s situation, but he was one of the only three who knew about "the possible special connection between Song Cheng and the female ghost of Tang River Village"; and this ti, he was also one of the three who truly knew "what Wang Tianchuan and Gao Lin were actually up to."
Upon hearing this, he had a fair idea in his heart.
So he softly said, "Big brother, is it done?"
Song Cheng took out half of the Skull Double Fish Ornant from his bosom and tossed it to Zhao Hua, saying, "Take a look."
The other half was in the hands of Wang Tianchuan and Gao Lin.
Zhao Hua held the ornant, trying to connect to the other side.
But the other side did not respond, as if unnoticed or inconvenient to reply.
Zhao Hua frowned and continued to wait.
Finally, the ornant in his hand trembled, and the skull fish’s mouth emitted a mist, which looked like a distorted hazy moonlight, forming a circular face-sized sphere in midair, on the other side of which a scene appeared.
Gao Lin and Wang Tianchuan were seen squeezing together with a crowd of laborers, seemingly running towards sowhere.
Wang Tianchuan held the Skull Double Fish Ornant high and shouted, "It’s done, it’s done!"
Zhao Hua calmly asked, "What is done?"
Wang Tianchuan smiled and said, "Of course, it’s the connection of the river channel with Tang River. Now that the task is completed, it’s naturally ti to return. There might be a Ghost Tide coming, we all feel sothing is wrong, it’s better to return. Right?"
Others in the background were shouting, "Master, Master, we’ve all heard, the An Family is now big and prosperous in the Prefectural City! We have made a great contribution!"
"Right, right, right! You can’t shortchange us!" yet others clamored.
Zhao Hua rolled his eyes, glanced over the large group of people behind Wang Tianchuan and Gao Lin, and gently smiled, "You won’t be shortchanged! Of course not! Everyone co back together, the mansion isn’t the sa as before, everyone who cos will be greatly rewarded."
Gao Lin waved his hand saying, "Then thank Master Zhao."
The crowd behind him jovially and joyously shouted, "Thank you, Master Zhao."
Others shouted, "Master Zhao, how much reward money will you give?"
Yet others shouted, "Master Zhao, rest assured, we definitely won’t talk recklessly outside."
"Talk recklessly about what? We are greatly rewarded, what more could we want, haha."
Zhao Hua smiled gently, "Then that’s settled, co back soon. I will arrange fine food and wine to welco and cleanse you all. Each and every one of you has made significant contributions to our mansion."
As he spoke, the moonlight that had risen from the ornant began to dim, and the skull fish’s mouth slowly returned to normal.
The Skull Double Fish Ornant needed to draw upon the moonlight, and each use was limited in ti.
Zhao Hua put down the ornant, looked towards Song Cheng and said, "Big brother, it looks like we were right."
Song Cheng responded, "Then alright, I’m going to the east of the city to et an old friend."
Zhao Hua didn’t say much, watching as Song Cheng boarded a carriage and departed.
He looked at the still unsettled Skull Double Fish Ornant in his hand, held it tight for a mont, then lowered his head in thought, summoned his own coachman, but went to Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple to find his sister-in-law.
