After explaining to Zhao Youliang, the head of the Chang family shook his head and smiled helplessly at the other man's distraught appearance.
“Zhao Youliang, your current state is really not suitable for learning the ‘Gentleman’s Sword’.”
"Perhaps it's just not meant to be... I'll return to serve you, sir. Take care of yourself."
After speaking, Chang Huaiyuan bowed to the old man who was lecturing on his own, and then disappeared from Zhao Youliang's dream.
Zhao Youliang, still preoccupied with Yingchun's sister-in-law, was unaware that he had missed a tremendous opportunity.
This is the "Gentleman" among the three perfections of swordsmanship...
Once he came to his senses, he immediately woke up and discussed with Liao Zhiyuan how to save Yingchun's sister-in-law.
Unfortunately, perhaps because he was beaten too badly by the big yellow dog, he just couldn't wake up.
It wasn't until an unknown amount of time had passed that a chill finally brought Zhao Youliang fully awake.
When I opened my eyes, it was already daylight. The chill came from the bucket of cold water that Li Mao had poured over my head.
"Oh my god, my whole body aches! Dog Bro beat me up so badly yesterday!"
Zhao Youliang struggled to sit up, rubbing his forehead as he spoke.
"Oh no, is the shop open yet? I don't want to be late!"
Upon hearing Zhao Youliang's words, Liao Zhiyuan gave a wry smile.
"Don't worry, Quantum Bro, we opened the door according to the rules a long time ago."
"You've forgotten, now we're in the same boat. I can do most of the things you can do for you."
Zhao Youliang then remembered that Liao Zhiyuan had also been forced to sign the contract.
After calming himself down, Zhao Youliang quickly repeated what the Chang family patriarch had said and then asked a question.
"Xiao Liao, do you have any way to revive Sister Yingchun?"
Liao Zhiyuan was both amused and exasperated by the question: "Quantum Bro, don't be ridiculous. What you're talking about is called bringing the dead back to life."
"You think too highly of me, do you really think I'm a god...?"
"Don't even mention me not being able to do it; even among our older generation, almost none of them can do it."
"Have you read 'Journey to the West'? Even if the Great Sage Equaling Heaven wanted to revive the King of Wuji Kingdom, he would have to go to the Tushita Palace to ask Laozi for the elixir of immortality."
"As for reviving ordinary people, it's harder than climbing to heaven!"
Liao Zhiyuan's words left Zhao Youliang stunned for a moment.
He sat blankly on the bed, lost in thought.
Seeing Zhao Youliang like this, Liao Zhiyuan knew that Zhao Youliang had to figure things out himself, otherwise it would become a knot in his heart.
Once a mental knot is formed, the path of spiritual cultivation is essentially over.
So he pulled Li Mao along and lay down in front of the shop with the big yellow dog to dry the eggs.
At the same time, he didn't forget to make amends for Zhao Youliang's reckless behavior yesterday: "Brother Gou, Brother Quantum didn't provoke you on purpose yesterday. He just wanted you to beat him senseless."
"You can't hold a grudge, don't beat him up again today."
"I'm afraid I can't handle his physique."
I don't know if the big yellow dog understood, but it just grunted twice and didn't say anything.
It seems they're not planning to go out on the street to bully small vendors or make breakfast.
Liao Zhiyuan had no choice but to cook something for himself.
Just then, Li Sao and her family of three walked over stiffly, clearly still possessed by the three evil spirits with strange appearances.
As the saying goes, enemies are especially hostile when they meet. Upon seeing this, the big yellow dog immediately barked and pounced.
(For details about the hatred between the big yellow dog and the three evil spirits, please see Chapter 0152 of this book: Dog Brother, You're Too Cruel)
Ever since the evil spirit was chased away by the big yellow dog last time, it was clearly afraid, and even trembled subconsciously upon seeing this.
My instinct was to turn around and run away.
Fortunately, Sister Yingchun, who had just gotten up, arrived and, unaware that Sister Li and the other two were possessed by an evil spirit, managed to restrain the thuggish dog in time.
"Big Yellow, stop fooling around! Don't bully people!"
"If you behave, I'll make you something delicious in a little while!"
In the small town, the only one who could keep the big yellow dog in check was this pretty widow.
Therefore, although the big yellow dog still glared angrily at Li Sao and the other two, it did not continue to charge.
He just kept lingering around Yingchun's feet, staring at her with ill intent.
Strangely enough, after the big yellow dog was pulled back by Sister Yingchun, the three evil spirits became even more frightened.
To be precise, she was terrified of Sister Yingchun... even more so than of the big yellow dog.
Unaware of the situation, Sister Yingchun didn't notice and instead greeted the other party with great enthusiasm.
"Sister Li, what brings you all here today?"
"You're here to see Quantum about something? Should I go in and call him?!"
Hearing Sister-in-law Yingchun's words, the three evil spirits hesitated even more.
After a moment, he spoke tremblingly, "We came here on the young master's orders."
"Young Master said that as long as you release my young mistress, all past matters will be wiped clean."
"Your killing of half our people is also wiped clean!"
After the three vengeful ghosts finished speaking, they immediately tiptoed away, completely ignoring Yingchun's bewildered gaze.
It wasn't until they were far away that the beautiful widow realized what had happened and asked Liao Zhiyuan, who was standing nearby.
"Xiao Liao, what are they saying? I can't understand a word they're saying."
"What young master, young mistress? When did I ever kill half of his clan?!"
Not only was Yingchun's sister-in-law confused, but Liao Zhiyuan was as well.
However, he reacted very quickly, immediately recalling the incident of a thief breaking into the house of this pretty widow.
Could it be... could it be that that night a hundred ghosts came to claim Yingchun's life, and then she killed half of them in return?!
Upon realizing this, Liao Zhiyuan's eyes revealed panic.
You should know that the so-called half of the clan consisted of dozens of vengeful ghosts that had been around for a hundred years, and they were the kind of vengeful ghosts with overwhelming resentment!
Even if Zhao Youliang's entire gang were to mobilize, they would still be no match for such a being!
Now, they've been wiped out single-handedly by Sister-in-law Yingchun...
While wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Liao Zhiyuan tried to ask.
"Sister... Sister Yingchun, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Or is there anything strange?"
"No!" Sister Yingchun was even more confused when asked.
"Xiao Liao, why are you all acting so strangely today..."
At this point, Sister Yingchun suddenly stopped: "Xiao Liao, if you want to talk about something strange... ever since my husband died, I haven't wanted to leave the town."
"And since I've never left the town, does that count?"
Sister-in-law Yingchun's words immediately made Liao Zhiyuan nervous.
"Yes, of course it counts!"
"Sis, why have you never left this town? Can you tell me why?!"
Sister-in-law Yingchun seemed a little confused and apprehensive: "Sister, sister can't say for sure either."
"I just feel like once I leave here, I'll never be able to come back... or rather, I'll die."
"But I promised him I would take good care of my parents-in-law, so I can't die now... I absolutely can't die!"
