3287 Study
In a remote village, Feng Jiu was studying the array map book. Over the past half a month, they did some sight-seeing as they travelled, and all was peaceful. When they came to this small village and saw that the place was relatively quiet, they decided to stay for a few days to prepare and familiarise themselves with the array map book. They would then use the array map to take them to Pill King Valley.
When it came to cultivation and seclusion, there was no better place than Pill King Valley.
“Have a cup of tea!” Xuanyuan Mo Ze came to her side with a cup of tea and asked: “Have you learnt anything about the array map in the past two days?” He sat down beside her.
Feng Jiu looked up at him and said with a smile: “I’m almost there. I thought about trying it in the evening, what do you think?”
“Fine.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze responded. After a while, he stood up: “Keep reading! If you feel tired, go for a walk. I will go and see Hao’er.”
“Mmm.” Feng Jiu nodded. She watched him go out, then she continued to study the book in her hand.
Outside, Hao’er was playing happily in the village with Leng Hua and Leng Shuang by her side, while Gray Wolf and Shadow One sat on the roof and the other sat on the tree. They were surrounded by birds chirping, and the leaves moved with the blowing of the breeze, it felt very comfortable.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze stood in front of the house with his hands behind his back and glanced at them. Then, his eyes turned up to the sky with a thoughtful expression as he thought of something unbeknownst to the others.
Since they were idle, Gray Wolf and Shadow Wolf went into the woods. They killed two wild boars and when they came back, they distributed the meat between the families in the small village.
In the evening, when Feng Jiu smelt the aroma of the food, she finally closed the book in her hand and raised her head. She put the array map book back into space, then she stood up and stretched her waist and walked out.
“Mother!” Little Hao’er ran over happily on his short legs and hugged her thigh. His little face was filled with a joyful smile and the innocence of a child.
“Is Hao’er hungry?” Feng Jiu patted his head and asked softly.
“Yes.” The little guy blinked at her, his eyes full of admiration.
“Mother will take you to wash your hands then we will eat dinner.” She took his hand and walked forward.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze was sitting at the table when he saw that she had come out of her room. So, he told Leng Shuang and the others to prepare the dishes to be ready to eat. After a while, Feng Jiu led Hao’er back to the table and sat down with Xuanyuan Mo Ze while Leng Shuang and the others sat at the other table.
The food was cooked by a few women in the village. It wasn’t exquisite, but it had a pleasant flavour. After they had eaten, and when she saw that the sky was getting dark, Feng Jiu said to them: “I have been studying the arrays on our journey, I should be able to take us to Pill King Valley today.”
Upon hearing this, Gray Wolf couldn’t help but be overjoyed. Du Fan and the others had improved their strength after going there. It was said to be a good place for cultivation and he had long wanted to go there.
After she gave them some instructions and gave Hao’er to Leng Shuang to look after, she and Xuanyuan Mo Ze came to a place outside the village. Then, she drew an array on the ground while explaining it to Xuanyuan Mo Ze at the same time.
After she broke through the array, she told him the mystery of it and how he could use this demonstration to reverse space teleportation in the future. Although the array was given to her by the Pill King, Xuanyuan Mo Ze was not an outsider. What she learned and had, she naturally hoped he would know and have too.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s skill of comprehension was extremely high, and even though he hadn’t studied arrays for a while, he soon understood what Feng Jiu was saying.
