Chapter 8: Uncle (II)
The two sat down, Wang Guanlan ordered a few more dishes of wine and food, and the two chatted while eating, and they seemed to be harmonious.
Before he crossed over, Wang Guanlan didn't have a good impression of this idle uncle, and even felt that he was ashamed of himself, ashamed that his mother had such a younger brother, and felt that he had embarrassed himself, but because this Wu Yutang was also his elder, so in front of and behind him, he still made a respectful appearance to show others, but now Wang Guanlan, although he doesn't have much good impression of this uncle who is unlucky in hell, but he doesn't have a bad feeling, and even thinks that this guy is quite interesting, and this guy's bad luck is rare to look like this。
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Wu Yutang's conversation box gradually opened, at the beginning, it was just some complaints, Wang Guanlan just laughed when he heard it, and gradually, the words began to shift in the direction of the anchovy grass, and Wang Guanlan suddenly understood the meaning of his uncle.
"Fourteen young people, your fire is really ruthless, now the price of anchovy grass has tripled, and it continues to rise, if you really wait until next year, I'm afraid it will have to rise at least ten times or twenty times, right?!" Wu Yutang took a sip of wine and asked seemingly unintentionally.
"Next year, hehe, uncle, I think you care about this year's anchovies, right?!"
was told by Wang Guanlan that his purpose was revealed, Wu Yutang's hand shook, the wine in the cup spilled on his hands and on the table, he hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve, showing an embarrassed look, "Hehe, that, the fourteenth young man is becoming more and more wise and martial now, I haven't said this yet, you know what I mean!"
"Of course I know what you mean!" Wang Guanlan smiled, "But you also know that this fire was deliberately put away after I came to Yicheng, except for the one for the palace, it is impossible to leave any way back for myself, and it will not give anyone a hole to drill, so I don't have a little inventory in my hand, if Uncle really wants it, I will leave you a little more next year, what do you think?!"
Blocking the words here, Wu Yutang just had more reasons, and it was hard to say, so he had to sigh helplessly and sit there and drink stuffy.
"Uncle, you see, I first came to Yicheng, although I did some things, but the rebound here is also very powerful, I have to be careful step by step, but since Uncle you came to Yicheng, of course I will not make it difficult for you to do, it just so happens that I have cleaned up the industry in Yicheng this time, vacant several supervisors, you see, on the dock, the stewards of the two warehouses are all empty, I will hand over these two warehouses to you to manage, I don't care about profit and loss, if you are short of money, uncle, you only mention to me, although I didn't do much in Yicheng, but the money is a lot of money, you see how it is?!”
"How can this work, how can this work?!" Wu Yutang's eyes lit up, but his mouth was repeatedly resigned, "All that money was earned by you desperately, how can I ask for it!"
"Uncle, don't be polite to me, I lack everything now, I just don't lack money!" Wang Guanlan put a hand on Wu Yutang's shoulder, and said with a smile, "I'm worried about how to spend this money now, you are my uncle, help me spend money, but it's a matter of course, what do you say?!"
"Hey, hey, hey!!" Wu Yutang's eyes had narrowed excitedly, he nodded again and again, the wine was a little high, and his tone became affectionate, "Guanlan, I knew that you wouldn't care if your uncle lived or died!!"
"What, uncle, do you owe money to someone again?!" Seeing this tone and expression, Wang Guanlan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
"It's not much, it's not much, it's just three thousand taels!" Wu Yutang said curtly, "Those grandsons are chasing too closely, so I came to you to hide!!"
Dare to love this guy is running to avoid debts!
Wang Guanlan shook his head with a smile, and took out three thousand taels of silver tickets on the spot for Wu Yutang to pay off the debt, as for whether he will come back to be the manager of this warehouse, it is unknown.

..................
Late at night, people are quiet
A bright moon shines on the earth
In the small courtyard where Wang Guanlan lived, there was a faint mist in the moon-white light.
The fog is hazy, like a light veil, and like a light cloud, which sets off the mystery of this small courtyard.
In fact, this is also one of the most mysterious places in Yicheng now.
In this courtyard, there are only two people now, one is Wang Guanlan, and the other is his personal maid Bihe, but Bihe lives in the west courtyard, and there is nothing that will never step into Wang Guanlan's room.
For all the people in Yicheng, including the civet guards who guarded Wang Guanlan, this courtyard was a forbidden place.
After being stabbed, this forbidden place was more closely guarded, and there would be people patrolling the entrance of the Five Elements Array in the small courtyard at all times to prevent any assassins with something similar to the guide bee from breaking into the courtyard and threatening Wang Guanlan's safety.
Under the moonlight, Wang Guanlan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, spitting out the old and accepting the new.
Under the effect of the spiritual power of the Hanging Illumination Realm, the internal situation of the body was roughly presented in Wang Guanlan's mind.
The internal meridians and internal organs of the body are still scarred, however, the internal qi scattered everywhere has been completely incorporated into the dantian, at this time the internal qi in his dantian is also undergoing a transformation, every trace of internal qi contains a sharp knife qi, and his dantian has gradually adapted to this sharp internal qi, under the care of doctors and pills, his internal injuries have gradually improved, and the flow of internal qi in the body will not be as painful as the previous paragraph, and after entering the third layer of qi refining, the quantity and quality of his internal qi have been greatly improved, which is what makes him feel the most gratified。
"Now I only need to completely recuperate from my internal injuries, and my cultivation will be able to stand firmly in the middle of the third layer of qi refining, and within a year, it is not an extravagant hope to break through the third layer of qi refining and set foot in the qi condensing realm!!" Wang Guanlan was very satisfied with the progress of his current cultivation.
Under the current physical condition, he can't cultivate internal qi, but it doesn't affect his research on martial arts, after going through so many things, he deeply feels that he has made great progress in martial arts cultivation, and has made breakthroughs in spells, but the spells he knows are too few, and it is not realistic to fight the world with fireball alone, the power of the arrow of red flame is great, but even if the red flame crystal is on his body, it needs preparation time, and the scope of application is not large, even greater than the limitations of the formation.
The only commendable means of attack is Ananda's Breaking Ring Knife Technique, but unfortunately for this knife technique, his understanding is not enough, but the mechanical surname is proficient in moves, and in accordance with the requirements of internal qi cultivation, condenses the internal qi in the dantian, so that the internal qi contains the cold sword qi, and the power is greatly increased, but that's all. These are just superficial things, and he understands it tightly in his heart, and his cultivation in martial arts is far behind!
And because his martial arts are all based on his own exploration, in fact, there is no real Master to guide him, so in the practice of martial arts, he has a feeling that he doesn't know where to start, which is also the most troublesome thing he has always had.
"Ananda breaking the sword is good, but why can't I always grasp the essence of this knife technique, every time I use it, I always have a feeling of unfinished, as if I haven't exerted the full power of this knife technique!"
At this time, he thought of the martial arts that the demon beast Yuan Hai had displayed when he was fighting with the ice demon beast in the Fog Hidden Canyon, which gave him a vivid feeling.
"Wait, that's the trick—"
In the depths of the Fog Hidden Canyon, Wang Guanlan had just obtained the rune of One Thought and Ten Thousand Laws, and with the power of the rune, he completely memorized the two tricks performed by the demon beast Yuanhai in his mind.
Although the runes of one thought and ten thousand laws were now gone, the things that had been memorized in his mind could not be lost.
"That trick seems like this-!"
Imagining the move when Yuan Hai attacked, Wang Guanlan subconsciously compared, and his soul began to immerse himself in the memory of that move, unaware that when he focused on this move, the momentum of his body was beginning to change slowly, of course, he didn't know that as early as when he started cultivating, there was already a person who appeared in his house.
Rewind the time to him sending Wu Yutang away, coming back from Wangjiang Tower, explaining a few words to Lu He, and then starting to cultivate, which is also his habit all along.
Just when he sat on the bed, closed his eyes, and replaced his gaze with spiritual sense, a faint black smoke floated from outside the door, appearing in the dark corner of the room, the black smoke gradually thickened, began to surge, and soon condensed into a human figure, this human figure is very clear, and at the same time with a sense of transparency, if Wang Guanlan can open his eyes at this time and look carefully, he can find that this figure is the uncle who was sent away by him on the Wangjiang Tower just now, Wu Yuchan's younger brother, Wu Yutang.
Wu Yutang still looked obscene as before, but his gaze at Wang Guanlan was a little complicated.
"This kid is quite hardworking, and the meeting is not bad!" Looking at Wang Guanlan who was in a state of cultivation, Wu Yutang nodded secretly, but that hand was groping around on his body, and after touching for a long time, he finally found a round and flat "stone".
Holding the stone in his hand, he gestured at Wang Guanlan a few times, his expression seemed a little hesitant, but after all, he still sighed secretly, lifted the "stone" like a disc, aimed at Wang Guanlan, and then he blew the stone.
A mouthful of gray-yellow smoke erupted from his mouth and sprayed on the "stone", and the smoke sprayed on the stone, and then a large tent of yellow smoke poured out, covering Wang Guanlan, and soon, it enveloped Wang Guanlan's whole body.
The strange thing is that although he was completely shrouded in this smoke, Wang Guanlan didn't realize it at all, and still cultivated seriously, without the slightest mistake, and he didn't know that under the shroud of this smoke, his body glowed with bursts of light, and gradually became transparent, and soon, his body disappeared, replaced by a blue "flame" hanging in the air.
"Well, the fluctuation of the divine soul is a little weird, it should have undergone a mutation to become like this, but it is not the effect of the talisman!" Seeing the blue "flame", Wu Yutang let out a long breath and was completely relaxed, "There is no trace of the talisman at all, it seems that the Yinian Ten Thousand Talisman was not taken by him, fortunately, fortunately!!"
