Chapter 238 – Skilled brushwork and Dan Qing's artistry
Prime Minister's Mansion Courtyard.
The demon god Xiang Liu emerged from the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was a mess, almost in ruins. In consideration of the safety of the Prime Minister, Wen Guanshan was guarded by many disciples and sent to the courtyard.
In the courtyard, many physicians hurriedly diagnosed and treated Wen Guanshan. Wen Guanshan did not avoid suspicion and said to his disciples such as Min Wanghai, "Tonight is the day of my great calamity. Someone will come to kill me. The attacker is extremely fierce. At first, it will only be a feint attack to test my remaining strength. At three in the morning, it will be the first wave of testing."
Min Wanghai lost an arm, and other disciples were also injured. They were all injured by Su Yun's Nine-Headed Xiang Liu. Several strong men were also killed by Su Yun. If there was an enemy attack tonight, it would be dangerous!
Wen Guanshan continued, "The first wave of attack at three in the morning will lure you away. The enemy will lure you away from the mountain."
Min Wanghai angrily said, "Master, rest assured, we will fight to the death!"
Wen Guanshan shook his head and said, "No, you will leave."
Min Wanghai and others were puzzled and did not understand why they had to leave when they knew it was a plan to lure the enemy away.
"If you don't leave, you will undoubtedly die in the second wave of attack. If you are lured away, you can still save your lives."
Wen Guanshan said, "After you are lured away, there will be a second wave of assassins. This second wave of assassins is here to test my remaining strength. Wanghai, bring me my spiritual weapon, the Thousand Words Banner, and hang it on the door of my courtyard. When this wave of assassins comes, this treasure will kill them."
Min Wanghai quickly brought the Thousand Words Banner. This treasure was Wen Guanshan's famous treasure.
When Emperor Ai ascended the throne, Wen Guanshan became famous for his good governance and presented Emperor Ai with a thousand words of good governance. Emperor Ai was very pleased and regarded him as an unparalleled good minister, promoting him three times a day.
This Thousand Words was written on a golden banner by Emperor Ai and personally refined by Wen Guanshan, hence it was called the Thousand Words Banner, with great power.
Wen Guanshan said again, "After these two tests, it will be four in the morning. This person's strength is not small. The Thousand Words Banner cannot stop him. You will bring me the Buddhist treasure and the Taoist treasure I refined. Hang one on the lintel in front of my room and the other on the canopy above my bed."
Min Wanghai and others agreed.
Wen Guanshan was a great saint of the miscellaneous family. He had learned the skills of the Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist schools. In addition to the Thousand Words Banner, he also refined treasures of the Buddhist and Taoist schools, each with their own unique features.
"The attacker will fight against my two spiritual weapons and exhaust his energy. This person can break through here, indicating that his status is extremely high in the Eastern Capital."Wen Guan Mountain Road: "Even though he came to my sickbed, he didn't dare to fight me because he was not in his prime state due to his weakened aura, so he will definitely escape. In this way, we can make it through until the fourth watch."
Min Wanghai's heart trembled as he asked, "Teacher, what about the fifth watch?"
Wen Guanshan replied, "Once the fourth watch is over, you should come back immediately, prepare my body, and then beat the drums, cry loudly, and rush to notify officials from all over the court, saying that I am critically injured and beyond saving. By the time the fifth watch arrives, it will be almost dawn, and the officials who go to court will have already woken up, so they will surely rush over to pay their respects. You just need to cry, and don't say anything else."
Min Wanghai and the others were scared, and Fei Hongjin trembled as he asked, "After the teacher gets through this night, will he be safe?"
Wen Guanshan shook his head and said, "The real danger has just begun. The first night is a test, and the second night is when the real enemy will appear. When you prepare my body, put my Great Saint Spirit Weapon and the three major Spirit Weapons into the coffin. On the second night, you don't need to keep watch, just leave and don't stay."
Everyone's face became solemn, and they stopped talking.
Wen Guanshan continued, "Come back on the morning of the third day. Don't open the coffin, just bury me. If I am alive, I will naturally crawl out of the grave seven days later. If I am dead, then bury me like this. Alright, go and prepare."
Min Wanghai and the others all bowed down and kowtowed to him in gratitude.
Wen Guanshan lay on the sickbed and knew that they were thanking him, so he didn't pay attention to them.
At this moment, a servant came in and said, "Master, there's a scholar named Su Yun outside with a greeting card."
"How can the teacher see guests when he is critically injured and his life is in danger?"
Zeng Zhensong slapped the servant and said angrily, "Don't even mention this Su Yun, even if he is a high-ranking official, he cannot see the teacher today!"
But Wen Guanshan's expression changed slightly, and he gasped and said, "Zhen Song, let this Su Shao Shi come in. Be polite and don't use harsh words."
Zeng Zhensong and the others were puzzled, but they followed his orders.
Wen Guanshan's injuries were very serious, and seeing guests at this time would be detrimental to his condition. Although Su Yun was a minor official in the Inspectorate, his reputation had risen in recent days. Why did the Prime Minister want to see him?
"Could it be that this Su Shao Shi is the ruthless person who killed Prince Yuan Wuji, insulted the Prime Minister's son, killed people in Jingnan Tower, and disrupted the debate between the New and Old Schools?"
Fei Hongjin gritted his teeth and said, "Is this beast here to check on the teacher's injuries?"
Min Wanghai's injuries were severe, but he barely suppressed them and said, "Hongjin, listen to the teacher's orders and don't cause any trouble. We just need to follow the teacher's instructions and handle tonight's affairs!"His face sank: "Even if there is a huge grudge with Su Shao Shi, we must wait for seven days before doing anything!"
Fei Hongjin agreed.
After a while, Su Yun followed the servant to the Prime Minister's mansion, and Min Wanghai and others were walking out. Su Yun smiled and nodded at them.
Min Wanghai and the others did not return the gesture, but watched him walk towards the ward.
"The people in the Eastern Capital are so impolite!" Ying Ying was quite unhappy in Su Yun's spiritual realm.
Su Yun smiled and said, "If you think about it, the injuries on their bodies were all caused by me. Why bother being angry with them?"
Ying Ying felt uneasy and said, "Do you really want to see Wen Guanshan? You beat him like this, and now that Xiang Liu is not protecting him, he won't let it go. If he sees through your intentions, he will attack you..."
"Ying Ying, since we're already here, why back down now?"
Su Yun smiled politely and walked into the ward. He said to Ying Ying, "Besides, don't you also want to know if Wen Guanshan is that person?"
Ying Ying's heart trembled and she didn't say anything.
At this moment, Su Yun looked up and saw Wen Guanshan on the sickbed. Ying Ying walked into his eyes and looked out, also seeing Wen Guanshan. Her heart beat faster.
Could the man she admired and adored back then be this person in front of her?
"Scholar Su Yun, pay respects to the Prime Minister." Su Yun bowed.
"You are performing the etiquette of a student, not the etiquette of an official meeting a superior."
The sickbed was a large bed that could accommodate seven or eight people lying side by side. Two young maids were kneeling on the bed, helping Wen Guanshan sit up. A girl came to Wen Guanshan's back and knelt down, leaning against him.
Wen Guanshan leaned back and looked at Su Yun. His complexion was still good. He waved his hand, asking the others to leave, including the doctor. He sneered, "You're so bold to come see me!"
His anger was like the change of heaven and earth, thunder and lightning intertwined, and Mount Sumeru collapsed in front of him. It was truly the wrath of a saint!
Su Yun pretended to be blind and indifferent, saying, "You are the one I maimed. Why wouldn't I dare to see you?"
Wen Guanshan's face changed slightly. He changed his tone and smiled, "You are indeed my student. However, I have never taught you to disrespect your teacher and destroy your ancestors."
Su Yun's heart beat violently. After a while, he calmed down and said, "Do you remember the first article you taught me, 'Standards for Being a Good Student'?"
Wen Guanshan was stunned and laughed, "How could I teach those corrupt articles? The first article I taught you was 'The Rites of Zhou' compiled by King Wenxuan."
Su Yun's face darkened and he said, "I wonder if the teacher can explain the details of it?"Wen Guanshan said, "I am a great sage of the miscellaneous school, who has learned various methods. I have a demonic method that can separate the spirit and turn into a wild fox. In my spare time, I teach some fox spirits to be mischievous. But I didn't expect to attract a human boy." n0velusB.c0m
Su Yun shook his head and said, "Is it really just for fun? You covet the Ascension to Heaven Stele, but you know that Di Ping is also looking for it. You dare not go directly to Shuofang, so you left your spirit here in Tian Shi Yuan. You know that those who stole the Ascension to Heaven Stele will fight each other sooner or later. Then, the winner will bring the Ascension to Heaven Stele to the capital!"
Wen Guanshan smiled and said, "Go on."
Su Yun continued, "When they brought the Ascension to Heaven Stele back to the capital, it was the time for you to take action. First, the envoy of Da Qin came to the capital to show off their power. Then, you colluded with the envoy and had a debate between the new and old schools of learning, forcing the emperor to abdicate. You also assassinated Dao Saint and Holy Buddha to prepare for the change of dynasty. At that time, the emperor would be the person you chose, and with a word from you, Qiu Shuijing would be executed, Xue Qingfu would be punished, and the Ascension to Heaven Stele would fall into your hands."
"In the past exams, you always ranked first. Among all my disciples, you are the best, even better than Min Wanghai. Sometimes I even thought that I should not hide the ancient saint's secret techniques. If I taught you those techniques, in the seven years that I taught you, you would have grown to an incredible level."
He felt a little regretful.
In those seven years, he taught Su Yun, Hua Hu, and others the remnants of the ancient saint's secret techniques, but he did not teach them any practical methods or advanced techniques.
Although Su Yun and Hua Hu had a very solid foundation and profound knowledge, they still could not build the foundation or cultivate the spirit.
"So, teacher, why did you choose to stay in Tian Shi Yuan and Tian Men Town?"
Su Yun asked.
Wen Guanshan nodded and said, "I want more than just the Ascension to Heaven Stele. Lu Hao is stupid. He thought you were dead and buried you. When I came, I saw the old man rescuing you from the coffin. The old man is kind-hearted and sent you to Tian Men Town to take care of you. I also want to use you to learn the method of longevity that Qu Taichang and others have researched and the way to the immortal world."
He looked up and said with some emotion, "It is better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. Although the Ascension to Heaven Stele is wonderful, it is only a tool. What I need is its method. So, I came to observe Tian Men Town through you. But what I never expected was..."He looked at Su Yun, laughing so hard that tears were about to flow down his face: "For seven years, the technique that I have always dreamed of getting has been right beside me, right under my nose! It's ridiculous that I have always focused my attention on Tianmen Town and those dead ghosts! It wasn't until you made a move on me today that I realized this!"
Su Yun calmly waited for him to finish laughing before speaking slowly and steadily, "So, teacher, I have a question for you on behalf of my friend."
Wen Guanshan said, "Speak."
Su Yun asked seriously, "My friend wants to know if I should call you Dan Qing or Qin Wuling?"
Wen Guanshan's face suddenly became extremely cold, and the air around them became icy. The girl behind him was quickly frozen into an ice sculpture and died!
His gaze was fixed on Su Yun, not hiding his murderous intent at all, and he said coldly, "Xiang Liu has already been sealed by me. Your current strength is only that of an excellent Ling Shi in the Yulin realm."
Su Yun's expression remained unchanged. At this moment, the shadow behind him began to twist and a dragon-shaped shadow faintly appeared.
The dragon's shadow was strange, and it even had wings.
Wen Guanshan's eyes twitched.
Su Yun spoke calmly, "Please tell me the truth, teacher."
Wen Guanshan's expression changed constantly.
Ying Ying was so nervous in Su Yun's spiritual realm that she almost passed out. The shadow on the ground was not Xiang Liu, but the Xiang Liu technique that Su Yun had imitated!
If Wen Guanshan noticed it, they would both be doomed!
"Just like how the book monster Ying Ying is not the same as a scholar, I am not Qin Wuling."
Wen Guanshan suddenly said, "Qin Wuling is dead. I am Miao Bi Dan Qing."

"Could it be that this Su Shao Shi is the ruthless person who killed Prince Yuan Wuji, insulted the Prime Minister's son, killed people in Jingnan Tower, and disrupted the debate between the New and Old Schools?" Fei Hongjin gritted his teeth and said, "Is this beast here to check on the teacher's injuries?" Min Wanghai's injuries were severe, but he barely suppressed them and said, "Hongjin, listen to the teacher's orders and don't cause any trouble. We just need to follow the teacher's instructions and handle tonight's affairs!"His face sank: "Even if there is a huge grudge with Su Shao Shi, we must wait for seven days before doing anything!" Fei Hongjin agreed. After a while, Su Yun followed the servant to the Prime Minister's mansion, and Min Wanghai and others were walking out. Su Yun smiled and nodded at them. Min Wanghai and the others did not return the gesture, but watched him walk towards the ward. "The people in the Eastern Capital are so impolite!" Ying Ying was quite unhappy in Su Yun's spiritual realm. Su Yun smiled and said, "If you think about it, the injuries on their bodies were all caused by me. Why bother being angry with them?" Ying Ying felt uneasy and said, "Do you really want to see Wen Guanshan? You beat him like this, and now that Xiang Liu is not protecting him, he won't let it go. If he sees through your intentions, he will attack you..." "Ying Ying, since we're already here, why back down now?" Su Yun smiled politely and walked into the ward. He said to Ying Ying, "Besides, don't you also want to know if Wen Guanshan is that person?" Ying Ying's heart trembled and she didn't say anything. At this moment, Su Yun looked up and saw Wen Guanshan on the sickbed. Ying Ying walked into his eyes and looked out, also seeing Wen Guanshan. Her heart beat faster. Could the man she admired and adored back then be this person in front of her? "Scholar Su Yun, pay respects to the Prime Minister." Su Yun bowed. "You are performing the etiquette of a student, not the etiquette of an official meeting a superior." The sickbed was a large bed that could accommodate seven or eight people lying side by side. Two young maids were kneeling on the bed, helping Wen Guanshan sit up. A girl came to Wen Guanshan's back and knelt down, leaning against him. Wen Guanshan leaned back and looked at Su Yun. His complexion was still good. He waved his hand, asking the others to leave, including the doctor. He sneered, "You're so bold to come see me!" His anger was like the change of heaven and earth, thunder and lightning intertwined, and Mount Sumeru collapsed in front of him. It was truly the wrath of a saint! Su Yun pretended to be blind and indifferent, saying, "You are the one I maimed. Why wouldn't I dare to see you?" Wen Guanshan's face changed slightly. He changed his tone and smiled, "You are indeed my student. However, I have never taught you to disrespect your teacher and destroy your ancestors." Su Yun's heart beat violently. After a while, he calmed down and said, "Do you remember the first article you taught me, 'Standards for Being a Good Student'?" Wen Guanshan was stunned and laughed, "How could I teach those corrupt articles? The first article I taught you was 'The Rites of Zhou' compiled by King Wenxuan." Su Yun's face darkened and he said, "I wonder if the teacher can explain the details of it?"Wen Guanshan said, "I am a great sage of the miscellaneous school, who has learned various methods. I have a demonic method that can separate the spirit and turn into a wild fox. In my spare time, I teach some fox spirits to be mischievous. But I didn't expect to attract a human boy." n0velusB.c0mSu Yun shook his head and said, "Is it really just for fun? You covet the Ascension to Heaven Stele, but you know that Di Ping is also looking for it. You dare not go directly to Shuofang, so you left your spirit here in Tian Shi Yuan. You know that those who stole the Ascension to Heaven Stele will fight each other sooner or later. Then, the winner will bring the Ascension to Heaven Stele to the capital!" Wen Guanshan smiled and said, "Go on." Su Yun continued, "When they brought the Ascension to Heaven Stele back to the capital, it was the time for you to take action. First, the envoy of Da Qin came to the capital to show off their power. Then, you colluded with the envoy and had a debate between the new and old schools of learning, forcing the emperor to abdicate. You also assassinated Dao Saint and Holy Buddha to prepare for the change of dynasty. At that time, the emperor would be the person you chose, and with a word from you, Qiu Shuijing would be executed, Xue Qingfu would be punished, and the Ascension to Heaven Stele would fall into your hands." "In the past exams, you always ranked first. Among all my disciples, you are the best, even better than Min Wanghai. Sometimes I even thought that I should not hide the ancient saint's secret techniques. If I taught you those techniques, in the seven years that I taught you, you would have grown to an incredible level." He felt a little regretful. In those seven years, he taught Su Yun, Hua Hu, and others the remnants of the ancient saint's secret techniques, but he did not teach them any practical methods or advanced techniques. Although Su Yun and Hua Hu had a very solid foundation and profound knowledge, they still could not build the foundation or cultivate the spirit. "So, teacher, why did you choose to stay in Tian Shi Yuan and Tian Men Town?" Su Yun asked. Wen Guanshan nodded and said, "I want more than just the Ascension to Heaven Stele. Lu Hao is stupid. He thought you were dead and buried you. When I came, I saw the old man rescuing you from the coffin. The old man is kind-hearted and sent you to Tian Men Town to take care of you. I also want to use you to learn the method of longevity that Qu Taichang and others have researched and the way to the immortal world." He looked up and said with some emotion, "It is better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. Although the Ascension to Heaven Stele is wonderful, it is only a tool. What I need is its method. So, I came to observe Tian Men Town through you. But what I never expected was..."He looked at Su Yun, laughing so hard that tears were about to flow down his face: "For seven years, the technique that I have always dreamed of getting has been right beside me, right under my nose! It's ridiculous that I have always focused my attention on Tianmen Town and those dead ghosts! It wasn't until you made a move on me today that I realized this!" Su Yun calmly waited for him to finish laughing before speaking slowly and steadily, "So, teacher, I have a question for you on behalf of my friend." Wen Guanshan said, "Speak." Su Yun asked seriously, "My friend wants to know if I should call you Dan Qing or Qin Wuling?" Wen Guanshan's face suddenly became extremely cold, and the air around them became icy. The girl behind him was quickly frozen into an ice sculpture and died! His gaze was fixed on Su Yun, not hiding his murderous intent at all, and he said coldly, "Xiang Liu has already been sealed by me. Your current strength is only that of an excellent Ling Shi in the Yulin realm." Su Yun's expression remained unchanged. At this moment, the shadow behind him began to twist and a dragon-shaped shadow faintly appeared. The dragon's shadow was strange, and it even had wings. Wen Guanshan's eyes twitched. Su Yun spoke calmly, "Please tell me the truth, teacher." Wen Guanshan's expression changed constantly. Ying Ying was so nervous in Su Yun's spiritual realm that she almost passed out. The shadow on the ground was not Xiang Liu, but the Xiang Liu technique that Su Yun had imitated! If Wen Guanshan noticed it, they would both be doomed! "Just like how the book monster Ying Ying is not the same as a scholar, I am not Qin Wuling." Wen Guanshan suddenly said, "Qin Wuling is dead. I am Miao Bi Dan Qing." - Please subscribe and vote for this novel!
