Master of Martial Arts, please enjoy a drunken revelry in the martial world.

Chapter 162 The First Clearing After the Snow

Upon hearing that Gu Qianbei was leaving, Yang Guo's face showed a hint of sadness.

"Master, I'm going on a long journey, not dying. Why are you looking so long-faced? Smile!"

As Gu Qianbei spoke, she grabbed Yang Guo's cheeks with both hands and pulled them outwards, forcing a smile onto his face.

Yang Guo was both amused and exasperated by the sight.

"Master, I understand. Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of this Thousand Sorrows Shop for you."

"That's more like it."

Gu Qianbei patted Yang Guo on the shoulder, stood up, and stretched.

"It's getting late, you should get some rest."

"Yes, Master."

Silent all night.

The next day, in the Thousand Sorrows Market of Lu Family Manor, Li Mochou slowly woke up.

"Was that a dream, or a memory from the past? Gu Qianbei..."

Li Mochou suddenly remembered that Lu Liding had called her by this name before.

Downstairs, the door opened.

It was Lu Liding who came to work.

He had promised Gu Qianbei that he would manage the store well, so he had always been very responsible.

In addition, he was even more grateful to Gu Qianbei, who was pretending to be Gu Qianchou, for saving his life yesterday. So even though his injuries hadn't fully healed, he came to work on time.

However, when he saw Li Mochou coming downstairs, he couldn't help but regret not coming today.

"Master Li, you haven't left yet?"

Lu Liding gave an awkward smile, fearing that Li Mochou would attack him again.

"Tell me, is Gu Qianbei the owner of this winery?"

Li Mochou ignored Lu Liding's embarrassment and asked directly.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Lu Liding asked in confusion.

"Who was that person yesterday? Can you contact him?"

He said his name was Gu Qianchou, the younger brother of Young Master Gu.

I had never seen him before, and I had no idea why he showed up yesterday.

Wasn't he still here when we left yesterday?

Master Li didn't know when he left.

Li Mochou shook her head slightly.

She was drunk last night and has no recollection of how she got to her room on the second floor.

But seeing that her clothes were intact, she knew that the other person had not done anything to her.

She looked around but couldn't find him; he seemed to have already left.

"Since you're running this shop, shouldn't you contact Gu Qianbei?"

Li Mochou asked again.

"That's impossible. When Young Master Gu left, he only told me to manage Qianchou Si well, but he didn't leave any way to contact him."

He only said that he would send people over periodically to collect debts and deliver alcohol, and that I didn't need to worry about anything else.

"This guy..."

Li Mochou clenched her fists slightly, and the memories in her mind became clearer and clearer.

Ten years ago, after Gu Qianbei left, she secretly slipped out of the ancient tomb and went to Xiangyang to find Qianchousi, whom Gu Qianbei had mentioned.

But at that time, Qianchousi did not exist at all.

Therefore, she believed that Gu Qianbei had lied to her and returned home disappointed.

He was severely punished by his master for this and fell ill.

She lost that memory after that.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly remembered it now.

Everything about this felt eerie.

"Gu Qianbei! Who exactly are you! Was he really your brother yesterday?"

Li Mochou recalled the masked man she had seen yesterday. Although his voice and demeanor were different, his eyes were clearly the same as the ones in her memory.

Moreover, the mask said that it resembled a friend he knew.

Connecting everything together, the masked man was clearly Gu Qianbei.

"Master Li, are you alright?"

Seeing that Li Mochou's expression was off, Lu Liding quickly asked.

"It's alright. Lu Liding, if you see Gu Qianbei again, tell him I need to talk to him."

If he doesn't come looking for me, I will find him no matter where I go in the world.

Do you understand?

"Ah? I understand, I understand."

Lu Liding was taken aback at first, then noticed the anger in Li Mochou's eyes and quickly nodded in response.

Li Mochou said no more and turned to leave Qianchou Si.

But as she reached the door, something occurred to her, and she turned back to ask, "Do you have bamboo dew wine?"

"have!"

Lu Liding immediately replied.

"As expected, this wine exists."

She remembered that Gu Qianbei had treated her to this wine when they were having dinner together.

"Give me a jar, I'll take it with me."

"it is good."

Li Mochou threw down the silver and left with a jar of bamboo-infused wine.

On the way, Li Mochou took a sip, and it still tasted familiar.

"It's all true... No, I need to go back to the ancient tomb and ask my junior sister if she still remembers Gu Qianbei."

Li Mochou headed towards the ancient tomb, wanting to confirm those seemingly real yet illusory memories.

Gu Qianbei, however, did not notice this scene because she woke up late.

Although Qianchousi could check every room in real time, he wouldn't go looking at them unnecessarily, especially when he was sleeping.

Under his settings, the system would only automatically remind him if there was a crisis at Qianchousi; otherwise, he would just check the operational status on weekdays and wouldn't bother to look at it much more.

He doesn't play pure management games; he mainly plays role-playing games.

At 3:45 AM, Cheng Lingsu arrived precisely on time.

It was yet another exchange of medical skills.

Upon hearing that Gu Qianbei was going to the Song Dynasty in a few days, Cheng Lingsu immediately offered to go with him.

"Miss Ling Su, would you like to travel with me?"

Gu Qianbei asked in surprise.

"Yes. I've explored most of Xiangyang, so it's time to venture deeper into the region."

Moreover, I originally wanted to go to Wuliang Mountain in Dali, and it just so happens that I would pass through Da Song.

I heard there's a poisonous creature there called the Manggu Zhuha.

If we could find this item, it would be a great blessing for us physicians.

"Wuliang Mountain in Dali? It's definitely a place worth visiting."

Gu Qianbei nodded slightly upon thinking about this.

Wuliang Mountain in Dali is not only home to treasures like the Manggu Toad, but also to the martial arts passed down by the Xiaoyao Sect—the Beiming Divine Skill and the Lingbo Steps.

Of course, these two martial arts are no longer attractive to Gu Qianbei now, but even collecting them as merchandise is a good choice.

It's just unknown whether Duan Yu has already obtained this opportunity.

Judging from Qiao Feng's timeline, it should be almost time.

"Does Young Master Gu also wish to go to Wuliang Mountain?"

Cheng Lingsu exclaimed in delight.

Gu Qianbei nodded slightly.

"I would naturally like to visit a place where such a divine creature as the Manggu Toad exists."

Miss Lingsu, since we have the same destination, we can travel together.

That way, they can look out for each other on the way.

"Um."

Cheng Lingsu smiled brightly.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

night.

Gu Qianbei looked at the Jade Bee Nourishing Beauty Wine that was about to be brewed.

With practiced ease, he opened the jar and took out the wine, the pale yellow wine appearing in front of Gu Qian's cup.

"Ding, congratulations host, you have successfully brewed Jade Bee Beauty Wine. Reward: After Snowfall."

The next moment, the powerful sword technique was instantly etched into Gu Qianbei's mind.

Along with it, the full text of "Free and Easy Wandering" was also engraved.

"After the snow, the sky clears. Is that the sword technique that the illiterate man can't use? The moves are quite good."
