Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality
Chapter 125 Returning to Qingyang Town, Preparations Before Leaving
After dealing with Wu Yan, Jiang Yuchuan returned directly to the training ground, took Qi Changqing down Wanren Peak, and returned to the inn in Zhuxing City where they stayed.
With Wu Yan crippled, the Tianyi Sect's various conspiracies and schemes are doomed to failure. The next step will be a time for the various sects and the imperial court to jointly settle scores.
One can imagine what the entire martial arts world would be like when news of what happened on Wanren Peak spreads and the imperial court and various sects launch a crackdown.
Jiang Yuchuan had absolutely no interest in the martial world, where everyone was on edge and fearful of danger. Moreover, now that he had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, it was time to begin his search for the legendary Abbot Island as planned, preparing for his breakthrough to the Golden Core stage.
However, before officially setting off to find Fangzhang Island, Jiang Yuchuan still had to return to Qingyang Town.
His first priority was to return Qi Changqing safely to Sun Ying. Secondly, he needed to make preparations for his uncertain journey to find the island.
Jiang Yuchuan and Qi Changqing returned to Qingyang Town in less than two months.
More than a year has passed since I last returned, and Qingyang Town remains unchanged, as if nothing has changed.
Back in town, Jiang Yuchuan no longer allowed Qi Changqing to follow him. Qi Changqing, who hadn't seen Sun Ying for over a year and was longing for his mother, readily agreed and, after saying goodbye to Jiang Yuchuan, immediately rushed home.
Jiang Yuchuan unlocked the door and stepped into his small courtyard, where a familiar atmosphere greeted him.
Apart from the accumulated dust, the courtyard remained the same as always.
However, the peach tree in the yard seemed to have become even more lush than when he left.
It's a pity that this peach tree, which has already developed a spiritual quality, is far from bearing fruit. It seems that he won't be able to taste the peaches from this tree before he leaves.
After Jiang Yuchuan used his spiritual power to clean all the dust from the courtyard and the house, he picked up his vegetable basket and went to the street to buy vegetables.
Although he hadn't returned for over a year, the vegetable vendors and villagers in Qingyang Town still recognized Jiang Yuchuan at first glance and greeted him warmly.
Thanks to Aunt Sun's promotion, almost everyone in the town knew that Jiang Yuchuan had taken Sun Ying's son on a study tour.
So, upon seeing Jiang Yuchuan return, some villagers who had rarely left the town and were fairly familiar with him warmly pulled him aside to ask about the fun things they had seen and encountered during his year-long study tour.
Surrounded by the villagers, Jiang Yuchuan found it difficult to refuse, so he directly recounted some of his experiences and observations with Qi Changqing at the Lu family's birthday banquet and Zuixianju.
This lecture lasted for more than half an hour.
The villagers listened with great interest, expressing their amazement and praise, and longing to join in.
Even after Jiang Yuchuan finished speaking, the villagers still looked like they wanted more. Although they wanted to hear more, they knew their limits and didn't beg Jiang Yuchuan to continue.
To thank Jiang Yuchuan for sharing, the villagers selling vegetables directly filled Jiang Yuchuan's basket with handfuls of vegetables from their stalls, selecting only the freshest and most tender ones.
Seeing this, the food vendors followed suit, as if in a competition, and made a large portion of their own snacks to give to Jiang Yuchuan.
Jiang Yuchuan never expected that he would receive such a warm welcome from the villagers simply for going out to buy groceries.
Faced with the villagers' kindness, Jiang Yuchuan couldn't refuse. He could only smile and thank them while tightly hugging the various snacks that the villagers and vendors stuffed into his hands. Then he fled the street as fast as he could and ran towards the courtyard.
As he ran back, Jiang Yuchuan thought to himself: it would be best to avoid going through this door before leaving. Otherwise, he would find it difficult to cope with the villagers' enthusiasm.
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Yuchuan immediately soaked the basket full of vegetables in the spiritual spring water.
Today, we can eat the snacks that the vendors gave us; we'll have to cook the main dishes tomorrow.
Life seemed to have returned to how it used to be.
After spending two full days with Sun Ying, Qi Changqing, as before, knocked on Jiang Yuchuan's courtyard gate on time, entered the small courtyard, went into the study, and began to review the various medical books that Jiang Yuchuan had found for him.
During the year or so he was away, although he had also studied medicine with Jiang Yuchuan, for various reasons, he did not learn as much or as attentively as he had when he was in the courtyard.
While Qi Changqing was browsing medical books in his study, Jiang Yuchuan took out several thick, round pieces of wood that he had carefully selected and cut down from Daqingshan two nights ago, from the spiritual spring water in his space, and let them air dry in the sun.
When Qi Changqing came out for dinner, he was shocked and puzzled when he saw the rows of large logs lying side by side in the courtyard.
"What are you planning to do, sir? You've found so much fine wood all at once."
Jiang Yuchuan glanced at the wood, "Build a ship."
"A ship?" Qi Changqing was even more puzzled. "What kind of ship does the gentleman want to build?"
"A boat that can be used to cross the sea."
Jiang Yuchuan didn't intend to hide anything and directly stated his thoughts.
Although he had never built a ship before, he believed that with his Foundation Establishment cultivator skills, building a wooden ship capable of crossing the seas would not be a problem.
Most importantly, the wooden boat he wanted to build didn't need to be particularly beautiful or ornate; it just needed to be sturdy enough and able to carry people.
After all, what he was going to find at sea was Fangzhang Island, which only existed in legends and had almost never been set foot on by anyone.
The island has no precise location marked, and I may have to drift on that vast sea for many days.
Therefore, how could he feel comfortable taking those boats that could be bought at the dock?
After all, no matter how good those ships are, they are still made of ordinary wood. If they encounter special circumstances at sea, they can easily capsize or even fall apart.
After much deliberation, he decided that the safest course of action would be to personally build a special wooden boat for himself, combining his skills in crafting magical artifacts.
Upon hearing Jiang Yuchuan's words, Qi Changqing was first stunned, then, after realizing what he meant, exclaimed in surprise:
"—A ship to cross the sea! Sir, you've only just returned, and you're already planning another long journey?"
Qingyang Town is located inland, quite a distance from the sea.
Jiang Yuchuan said, "That's right. This trip is of great significance to me, and I absolutely have to go."
When does the gentleman plan to depart?
For some reason, Qi Changqing felt a strange sense of melancholy.
Jiang Yuchuan thought for a moment and said, "It will probably be in the next few days. Once I finish building this ship, that will be the day we set sail."
"Then I-"
Qi Changqing looked at Jiang Yuchuan with some nervousness.
Jiang Yuchuan shook his head slightly and said, "The journey is fraught with unknown dangers, so I can't take you with me. You stay in town and take good care of the courtyard for me. You can browse through the books in the study as you like; it's always good to learn more."
"Understood, sir. Don't worry, I will take good care of the courtyard for you!"
Although Qi Changqing felt somewhat sad, he did not show it and asked, "When will you return from this long journey, sir?"
