#169 - As a logistics person, I can only cut wood
As the paper figure approached, Gu An saw it fumble around for a moment before producing an envelope.
It was addressed: 'To be opened by Gu An'.
"If this were delivered to someone else, wouldn't it expose me?"
"Surely, seeing these words would compel them to open it, right?"
Gu An felt these words were not quite secure.
Afterward, he opened the envelope and examined its contents:
"I've heard a thing or two about your recent troubles, Junior Brother. I didn't expect that at your age, you would still be so valiant.
Just listening to the rumors, one would think you were a hot-blooded youth in your early twenties. Who would have thought you were a little old man past his prime?
But with a Golden Core cultivation base, you should be younger, right?
It shouldn't be that you still look like a little old man.
I specifically inquired about it. Your situation seems dangerous, and in truth, it is not very safe.
Fortunately, the higher-ups don't seem to care about you, so if you're careful, you should be able to stay safe for a while.
But after a long time, everyone will be less cautious.
You still need to change your situation as soon as possible.
Also, I don't know if you are still cultivating the third volume of the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy. I happen to have it here, so I'm sending it to you.
For the next level of cultivation technique, you can try looking for the Longevity Sect, a declining small sect. Perhaps you can exchange for the technique at the lowest price.
Recently, I obtained a spiritual herb that can extend lifespan by sixty years. I don't know if you still need it, but I'm giving it to you as well.
Oh, right, a genius named Chu Meng has recently emerged in the sect. Her talent seems extraordinary.
This person is very dangerous, so be careful not to be targeted.
Also, don't let anyone know that you know me, or you'll be in even greater danger.
In addition, the most important thing is, do you have spirit stones?
The more the better. Earn spirit stones diligently; they are a good thing.
From Hua Jiyang."
After reading the letter, Gu An frowned.
What do you mean, 'little old man'?
That sentence was unnecessary.
And I haven't become younger. Not only do I not feel younger, but I feel a little older.
Could it be that my lifespan is actually not that long?
Gu An sensed his own body. His Qi and blood were vigorous, with no signs of decay.
Perhaps it's because I've been dreaming too much, affecting my mind.
That's why I look older.
But that's fine too. The older I look, the easier it is to be underestimated.
Also, I not only know Chu Meng, but I've also been targeted by her.
However, Hua Jiyang seems very wary of her.
For now, there's nothing to worry about.
After that, he obtained a spiritual herb and a book from the paper figure.
It was indeed the third volume of the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy.
Gu An sighed.
Hua Jiyang's gifts are indeed very useful, and he even provided information on the subsequent cultivation techniques.
However, the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy cannot be improved for the time being.
If I improve it, I won't be able to improve other techniques.
But right now, he lacks offensive techniques, and also movement techniques.
In order to improve his overall strength, the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy needs to be slowed down.
Three years... it's indeed very difficult to make that Elder Miao have a change of heart.
Afterward, he put away the spiritual herb.
In this way, he has four items to extend his lifespan.
Although he doesn't know if they will be useful, it's always right to keep them. He always feels they will be very useful.
After that, he counted the spirit stones on his body. Unknowingly, he had exceeded 1,500.
Leaving a change of thirty-six spirit stones, Gu An handed the rest of the spirit stones to the paper figure.
Then the paper figure quickly disappeared.
Hua Jiyang's method is not bad.
But I also have something similar.
Scattering Beans into Soldiers, but I can't make them run to deliver things like a paper figure.
Moreover, the Red-Armored Soldiers from Scattering Beans into Soldiers are the size of normal people.
They can't walk silently like this either.
Afterward, Gu An briefly reviewed the third volume of the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy.
This volume is about turning Stellar Qi into ice.
The first volume is about turning Stellar Qi into mist.
The second volume is about turning Stellar Qi into water.
The third volume is about solidifying water into ice.
And the level is the same as the second volume, it also needs to be cultivated to the third level to be effective.
But based on the current strength of the second volume, he can still walk sideways among the Golden Core cultivators.
If he learns the third volume, he will completely crush them.
Unfortunately, reaching the Perfect Golden Core stage and the ninth level of the Qi Ocean Celestial Canopy, the latter is definitely more difficult to achieve.
The next day.
Gu An flew his sword to Peak Outside the Peak. It was quite a distance, so he got up a little earlier.
Before the appointed time, Gu An arrived at the outermost mountain peak, which was even further out than the outer sect's location when viewed from the side.
Soon, he saw a building resembling a market.
As he landed in front of the outermost building, two people stopped Gu An.
Both of them were at the Golden Core stage.
The people here seem to be very strong.
That Elder is indeed not well-intentioned.
"Who comes here?" the guard asked in a deep voice.
Gu An presented his appointment token.
The two looked at Gu An with surprise, and finally said:
"Senior Brother, please."
The other party also told him the location.
Thanking them, Gu An entered the inner gate of the building and was then led to the highest point.
As soon as he came in, he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.
A middle-aged man sat firmly in the upper position.
Looking at the things on the table.
After the other party finished reading, he seemed to notice Gu An's existence: "Appointed by the sect?"
"Yes, a disciple of Thousand Dust Peak," Gu An replied respectfully.
The other party waved his hand, and the letter of appointment fell into his hand.
After looking at it, he finally revealed a smile:
"Then stay. Go to the backyard first. You will be assigned specific tasks when you get there.
There are two teams in the backyard. Go find someone named Song Feng.
He will be your team leader in the future.
Go."
Gu An bowed respectfully and then retreated.
He didn't understand what the other party's smile meant.
The backyard.
A rather stout man looked at Gu An for a long time, and finally said: "The anti-corruption hero rumored in the sect?"
"Just a coincidence," Gu An said.
"Do you think people look at the result or the reason?" Song Feng smiled and said:
"The backyard does a lot of things. If there are problems with the spiritual wood sold or the buildings built, we will handle them.
But in our spare time, we mostly chop wood.
However long the break, that is how much wood there is to chop."
Hearing this, before the other party could say more, Gu An immediately said:
"I don't know much about architecture and spiritual wood, but I have a lot of experience in logging.
I hope Senior Brother can give me all the work."
As soon as these words came out, Song Feng didn't know how to continue.
He looked at Gu An playfully: "All the work?"
"Yes, all the work," Gu An nodded.
"Almost non-stop for a month, can you handle it? Do you know what kind of wood it is?" Song Feng asked back.
"I don't know, but I like logging. I hope Senior Brother can fulfill my wish," Gu An said sincerely.
Now his blood energy has recovered.
He still looks like a normal person.
"Looks like you're not young anymore. You have more patience. Then let you try," Song Feng said with a smile. He was naturally happy that someone wanted to chop wood.
He could finally have some free time.
Chopping wood is nothing compared to cultivating properly.
"Go find a place to live, then go to the forest behind. You can use any axe you want, and finally put it under the energy stone of Team One. When the stone lights up, our mission is complete," Song Feng patted Gu An on the shoulder and smiled:
"The future of our Team One is entrusted to you."
Gu An smiled and agreed.
Watching Gu An leave, Song Feng couldn't help but sneer:
"Looks very sensible, dull and foolish.
I don't know what the supervisor meant by sending him here.
Anti-corruption...
What else is there here besides being bullied by other sects?'
