Volume 1 Chapter 488 Sensible Jiang Li
Xiang Yun jumped up the cliff, then took out a Ten-fold Tonic Pill and gave it to Jiang Li to take.
When Jiang Li woke up again, he felt cool and comfortable all over, without any feeling of injury. When he looked at his hands, there was no trace of the wounds.
But Jiang Li suddenly found himself still on the cliff, with his feet on a large rock, which was just big enough for him to sit down without falling.
"Strange, why do I remember that I fell down, but where is the poisonous snake?" Jiang Li couldn't figure it out, and it felt like he had a nightmare.
Just when Jiang Li was in a daze, he suddenly heard Xiang Yun's shout: "How long do you want me to wait for you? Why don't you come up quickly?"
Jiang Li looked up quickly and saw a head sticking out from the cliff, staring straight at him.
Jiang Li quickly replied: "Oh, here I come!"
Jiang Li didn't think any more about it. Now his whole body was full of strength. He grabbed the stones on the rock wall and started climbing.
The process was arduous, and soon Jiang Li was sweating profusely. After spending half an hour, Jiang Li finally climbed to the top of the cliff.
He lay there panting, and after a long while he calmed down, he said, "Uncle, Jiang Li has climbed up."
Xiang Yun nodded and asked, "Well, how do you feel?"
Jiang Li was silent for a while before saying, "It feels great!"
Xiang Yun nodded again: "Remember this feeling well."
"I see!"
Xiang Yun walked forward to help him up, held his little hand and continued to walk forward, saying: "Keep going, there is still a long distance ahead."
Jiang Li nodded excitedly. Even though he was physically and mentally exhausted, he felt like he had endless energy when he thought about the more adventures and challenges ahead.
The two of them kept traveling through the Qili Mountain, crossing mountains and ridges, climbing cliffs, descending steep cliffs, fishing in ponds and catching crabs, picking wild fruits and mushrooms, catching elk and fighting wolves, beating poisonous snakes and scalding leeches...
After a month, Jiang Li had become darker and his face was dirty, but his eyes became brighter.
Xiang Yun asked Jiang Li to do many things himself, and would only help him when his life was in danger. This gave Jiang Li a lot of training, and he became much stronger and more mature. He also had more muscles, and even his abdominal muscles had a clear outline.
Even when surrounded by wolves again, Jiang Li personally beat back three wild wolves with a wooden stick, which made Jiang Li so excited that he couldn't sleep that night.
At the same time, Jiang Li also respected Xiang Yun more and more, because Xiang Yun taught him so many things, such as reading, distinguishing objects and understanding morality. He also found that Xiang Yun knew so much that he could never learn it all.
He also admired Xiang Yun's strength very much. The only monster he encountered in the past month was a white-eyed tiger as tall as a mountain. Its roar was so loud that the earth shook. When it rushed, countless grasses and trees flew everywhere and broke. A pond of a hundred meters in size was covered by it with one kick.
It was hard for Jiang Li to imagine that such a huge creature would appear in reality. It was completely beyond his understanding. It was also hard for him to imagine what kind of power would be needed to fight against such a monster.
But that day Xiang Yun taught him a lesson. He saw Xiang Yun soar into the sky and fly directly in front of the white-eyed tiger. Black and white energy emerged from his hands. He pointed at the white-eyed tiger and said calmly: "Either die now or get out!"
Jiang Li was so nervous that he forgot to breathe. He was worried about his uncle's safety, but he also saw with his own eyes that his uncle smashed the mountain-like white-eyed tiger into the sky with just one punch, and it disappeared without a trace.
When Xiang Yun returned to him, he looked indifferent, as if nothing had happened.
This shocked Jiang Li immensely, and at the same time he began to desire Xiang Yun's terrifying power. However... he was a little timid, and although he wanted to learn, he didn't dare to ask Xiang Yun.
After all, he has learned a lot of things these days, and he also knows that skills cannot be taught to others casually. Xiang Yun is just his uncle after all, and they are not related. It is already very good that he is taking such good care of him now. If he asks his uncle to teach him skills, wouldn't that be too much?
Jiang Li thought, maybe... one day his uncle would take the initiative to teach him.
Jiang Li had no idea that Xiang Yun was also waiting for him to ask. If Jiang Li asked, he would definitely teach him.
That day, they arrived at the top of a mountain. Xiang Yun looked up at the surrounding scenery, then looked at the sky, as if he was looking for some direction.
Jiang Li asked curiously, "Uncle, aren't we going to hurry? How far do we have to go?"
Xiang Yun surprisingly did not answer him. Instead, he looked at the sky for a long time before slowly saying, "Let's not go any further. We're here."
Jiang Li looked around curiously. There were only mountains and blue sky and white clouds. He asked in confusion, "Uncle, what are we doing here?"
Jiang Li’s meaning was very clear. There was no food or shelter here, and the wind was strong. Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to stay here?
But Xiang Yun couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He suddenly noticed Jiang Li's sloppy appearance and frowned slightly.
"Next, uncle is going to a very dangerous place. Uncle cannot guarantee your safety there. You may die if you go there."
Jiang Li's pupils shrank, and Xiang Yun continued: "In the past month, your uncle has taught you how to survive in the Qili Mountains. Even if you leave your uncle, you can live well in the Qili Mountains;
Now uncle will give you two choices. The first choice is to stay in the Qili Mountains and wait for uncle to come back from that dangerous place. Then uncle will naturally find you. If uncle does not come back after a month, you can go wherever you want and you don’t need to wait any longer.
The second option is to go with uncle. You may not survive for three days, but uncle can guarantee that even if he dies, he will die before you. "
Jiang Li couldn't help but be stunned. He always thought that even though such days were hard, they were not necessarily beautiful.
But why did it change so quickly?
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiang Yun asked, "How long do you want to think about it?"
Jiang Li heard this and quickly said, "Uncle, can I not go?"
Xiang Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Of course not."
Jiang Li frowned slightly and hesitated for three seconds before saying, "Jiang Li will go wherever Uncle goes, but... Jiang Li doesn't want to die."
"Who wants to die..." Xiang Yun laughed at himself a few times, and then confirmed again: "Have you really thought about it? Do you want to go with uncle?"
Jiang Li said seriously: "I have thought about it carefully. This is not something I said on a whim. Jiang Li only has uncle as a relative in this world. Wherever uncle goes, Jiang Li will go. If uncle is going to die, Jiang Li will have no meaning to live in this world. It is better to go down and meet my parents earlier."
"You are quite sensible!" Xiang Yun was a little sad. Then he raised his hand and a dagger appeared. He stepped forward and trimmed the messy hair on Jiang Li's head.
He then used the Great Transformation of the Heavenly Demon to transform the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into the source of Tao, and then transformed it into a water structure, thus condensing a large amount of clean water out of thin air.
"Wash yourself before you go. You have to be clean. Otherwise, you'll be laughed at and looked down upon."
