Dao Ye is going to ascend

Chapter 47 Leaving
The parchment was unfolded and was as big as a human face. It showed a white ape dancing wildly with a hammer in the wind and roaring to the sky.

The painter's skills in the portrait seemed ordinary, but when Li Yuan looked at it intently, he felt a fierce aura coming towards him, which made him feel a chill in his heart.

"How can a painting be so similar? No, it's this sheepskin, the white sandalwood spirit sheep..."

Li Yuan tried to memorize and gradually immersed himself in it. Wu Ming, who was standing beside him, tilted his head with shining eyes, looking hungry and thirsty.

Yue Yunjin held the Green Snake Spear Manual alone. He felt empty inside when he suddenly got what he had been longing for for years.

It was only after Tang Tong spoke that he started to memorize.

The room was quiet. Tang Tong suppressed his cough, but blood still flowed from the corners of his mouth from time to time. His injuries were too serious.

"From the Dragon Sword..."

Tang Tong pressed his chest lightly and could feel the horrific knife wound through his clothes.

It seemed that he could still feel the chill all over his body, and the flash of the knife almost killed him on the spot.

"hurry up!"

After sitting for a while, Tang Tong stood up, glared at the distracted people, slowly walked out of the yard, closed the door, and did not let Fatty Sun, who was returning in a hurry, follow him.

Walk to the backyard alone.

Although he had a residence in the inner courtyard, he was in the backyard most of the time, along with Wang Ding and Cao Yan.

There is a small garden in the backyard, which is green and has fruit trees in bloom.

Cao Yan and Wang Ding were sitting opposite each other. When they saw Tang Tong coming, they stood up with worried looks on their faces.

"Old Tang, what's wrong with you?"

"He won't die, but his martial arts skills will be mostly wasted. The Dragon Blade is too sharp. Even with a top-grade elixir, it won't save him."

After taking a calm look at Cao Yan and the others, Tang Tong said:

"Before Han Chuijun comes, I will leave Gaoliu, but you also have to promise me that the three people, Yue Yunjin, Li Yuan, and Wu Ming, will remain in the Divine Weapon Valley assessment quota next year!"

"There are only six places for the Divine Weapon Valley in my Weapon Forging Shop, and you have decided on three. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Wang Ding frowned slightly, but sighed helplessly:
"Well, I'll take a step back and give you two."

Tang Tong did not answer, but just looked at Wang Ding coldly. The latter lowered his eyelids but did not give in.

"If it weren't for Elder Tang, I wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed. You can take the three places, but..."

Cao Yan sighed softly, apologetically:

"No one knows when Han Chuijun will arrive. It would be a pity if the night goes on. It would be better for you to leave tonight, Mr. Tang. I will send someone to take you to Dechang Prefecture..."

"Cough, cough~"

Tang Tong pressed his chest lightly and coughed violently a few times. He wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth and responded:
"Tonight!"

Cao Yan's face was filled with guilt, and he took out a white porcelain bottle from his arms: "This is the top-grade Yuan-boosting Pill from Four Seasons Thatched Cottage. Take it, Mr. Tang. It will help you feel better on the way."

Tang Tong took it and turned to leave. When he reached the door, he paused for a moment and said in a complicated voice:
"For more than two hundred years, countless ancestors have poured their life's efforts into the Weapon Forging Shop. I hope you won't destroy this ancestral legacy!"

Cao Yan was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and muttered to himself: "...How could I destroy the weapon forging shop? This is the foundation of our ancestors!"

"Qiu Long is so aggressive. If we don't fight back, he will eat us up sooner or later."

Wang Ding snorted coldly and looked at Cao Yan:

"Han Chuijun, also known as Ghost-faced Prajna, is a top-notch character. If he were to discover the wound on Old Tang's body caused by the Dragon Sabre..."

"Ok?"

Cao Yan raised his head, his eyes full of fierceness: "Tang Lao blocked that knife for me..."

"Our two families have received kindness from the Cao family for generations, and Old Tang is just repaying the favor. Even if he doesn't block the knife, I will stop it!"

Wang Ding looked grim.

"The Divine Weapon Valley cannot find Dechang Prefecture, that is the territory of the Dongshan Sect..."

Cao Yan frowned deeply.

"I'm not afraid of ten thousand..."

"enough!"

Cao Yan raised his hand to interrupt: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to discuss this matter any further!"

Seeing him like this, Wang Ding could only shake his head and change the subject:

"Then Yu Zhen's background is unclear. Do you really want him to be the head of the inner court?"

"Don't employ those you doubt, and don't doubt those you employ. I've known Yu Zhen for many years. He's very strict, so there won't be any mistakes!"

Cao Yan glanced at Wang Ding calmly:
"If everything goes well, you will be the head shopkeeper next year. Why rush?"

"The shopkeeper has misunderstood, this old man..."

Wang Ding wanted to say something, but Cao Yan left impatiently:
"In the front yard, Qin Xiong is at your disposal!"...

……

"The fundamental diagram actually contains training methods and standing exercises. It is the culmination of the White Ape Cloak Hammer and the ultimate perfection of the hammer method!"

"If I can penetrate the six directions, and then have the blessing of the perfect hammer technique, can it be considered the great perfection of the hammer technique?"

"What a good thing! Unfortunately, the value of this parchment is probably extremely high..."

……

In the inner courtyard, Li Yuan was immersed in it, gesturing from time to time, and his blood and energy seemed to become more agile.

After nightfall, Tang Tong came back, put away the two volumes of the fundamental map, and without giving the few people a chance to show their concern, he just raised his hand and sent them all away.

"Brother-in-law, are you really going to leave?"

After closing the door, Fatty Sun was worried, discouraged, and a little confused and uneasy.

He had spent most of his life in the weapon shop, and when he really had to leave, he felt panic and reluctant.

That kid still owes him more than fifty taels of silver!
"Otherwise, you stay?"

After taking a pill of Bu Yuan Dan, Tang Tong looked much better. He glared at his brother-in-law and told him to pack up quickly.

"I've never been to Dechang Mansion either."

Fatty Sun felt a little aggrieved and unwilling:

"Brother-in-law, shall we just go? Otherwise, how about taking a few apprentices with us on the road? I think Li Yuan is good, he's smart and capable!"

"Shut up!"

Tang Tongfan's blood rushed up and he almost coughed up blood.

Fatty Sun was so frightened that he dared not say anything more, but his heart was bleeding. This was a huge loss.

Fifty taels!

My silver...

"You don't have to clean up your pile of junk. Let's go."

After quickly tidying up, Tang Tong stood up.

Fatty Sun was unwilling to do so. All his belongings were in the middle courtyard. Tang Tong was too lazy to argue with him:
"Go back quickly!"

……

Li Yuan had just returned to the yard and had not had time to wash up when he saw Fatty Sun hurrying back.

"What are you doing?"

Li Yuan was a little surprised.

"Pack your things and go on a long journey!"

Fatty Sun rushed into the inner room and started rummaging through the drawers and cabinets, with bags all over his body. He then rushed to the kitchen and picked up two large kitchen knives.

"Going on a long journey? You and the second shopkeeper?"

Li Yuan reacted quickly.

"Alas, I don't want to go either, but there's nothing I can do. My brother-in-law insists on taking me away."

Fatty Sun sighed and felt very sad.

Seeing his expression, Li Yuan knew what he was thinking. He pretended to go back to the house, but actually took out the Liuhe boots from the gray stone platform.
After thinking for a while, he took out the silver note worth one hundred taels.

Tongda Money House has many branches, and bearer banknotes can be exchanged for silver anywhere.

"You, where did you get so much money?"

Fatty Sun was startled, took it subconsciously, and returned it: "Just return me fifty-six or seven taels, and the remaining one tael will be your interest!"

"One thing for one thing, nine out of 13 back, fifty-six taels must be returned seventy-three taels."

Li Yuan had no intention of defaulting on his debt.

The fifty-six taels of silver were also saved up bit by bit by Fatty Sun.

"This……"

After a brief hesitation, Fatty Sun accepted the banknote, took out two handfuls of silver from his bag and stuffed them into Li Yuan's pockets. Without waiting for a response, he left in a hurry.

"This fat guy..."

After weighing at least four pounds of silver coins, Li Yuan watched Sun Hao leave, and returned to the house after a while.

While standing with the hammer in hand, he recalled the basic diagram of the White Ape Hammer Technique that he had memorized.
