Shi Feizhe was indeed depressed. He didn't expect that any dilapidated house he picked up would have an owner.

It's like someone comes back after decades!

As for burying something with your name on it in my house, that's certainly a self-deprecating remark.

After all, he is not Captain Jia, who is unreasonable and cheating.

"Old man, the silver for the renovation is fifteen taels in total. After you pay it, you can live here. I will find another one." Shi Feizhe said:

"You're going to live here by yourself anyway, so hiring someone to fix it up will cost you about the same."

"Well...it's not expensive. It's just that I don't have money!" said the old man embarrassedly.

"No money? You wouldn't be watching me at the foot of the mountain when I came here. You didn't come here just to take advantage of me because you saw that I was almost done, right?" Shi Feizhe asked.

"Young man, I see that you are also a martial artist. How about I teach you a set of martial arts in exchange for these fifteen taels of silver?" the old man said in a negotiating manner.

"No! I already know enough martial arts, I can't digest it all!" Shi Feizhe refused.

Learning an unfamiliar martial art is risky, not to mention that it costs fifteen taels of silver. Can it be a good martial art?

"My martial arts are very powerful!"

"You're so powerful, but you don't learn!"

"There's nothing I can do about it. I don't have any money! Even if you fight, you can't beat me." The old man said with a grin.

He really has no money and can't use it.

"...For fifteen taels of silver, is it really that worth it?" Shi Feizhe was a little speechless.

I couldn’t tell what level of cultivation the old man had when he grabbed me just now. I guess his cultivation level can’t be too high, otherwise he wouldn’t act like a rogue just for a little bit of silver!

In the martial arts world, how can a master be without money!

Besides, young and strong people are better at fighting. This old man is so old, and he may have an advantage by relying on swordsmanship in fighting!

The advantage is mine!

Shi Feizhe encouraged himself.

Shi Feizhe was really helpless to see the old man acting like this, and he couldn't swallow it!

"Then I'll ask the old man for a few lessons!" Shi Feizhe picked up the rusty sword, which he had just bought in the town for practicing swordplay.

He performed a magnificent sword dance and said, "I'm only slightly proficient in swordsmanship, so using weapons isn't excessive, is it?"

"Oh? You know swordsmanship?" The old man looked at Shi Feizhe with interest. Then he put his right hand together and made a sword finger. As Shi Feizhe was stunned, his true energy turned into a sword.

"Come, let me have fun!!"

Shi Feizhe looked at the long sword formed by the true energy, about three or four feet long, emitting a faint blue glow in the sunlight. Coupled with the old man's words "Let me have fun", he knew that he had met a big shot.

"Well... I'm prone to convulsions even at a young age. Sometimes my mouth twitches and I don't even know what I'm saying! I just had an attack just now, so just pretend you didn't hear it, old man." Shi Feizhe decisively admitted his mistake.

When you are in the world, you must follow your heart!

This is the true meaning of martial arts!

"I'll pack my luggage and leave right away!" Shi Feizhe said hurriedly.

Isn't it just fifteen taels of silver? He doesn't want it!

Damn it, I can still meet a big guy even if I hide in the mountains!

What bad luck!

"Wait a minute!" the old man said again.

"Huh?" Shi Feizhe became alert instantly.

What's going on? Do you really want to kill him to silence him? Or do you want to embezzle his property?

"With the temper I had when I was young, if you had dared to draw your sword against me, I'm afraid you would have been broken into pieces by now." The old man looked at Shi Feizhe, flipped his hand and withdrew the sword he had transformed into. He continued:

"Now that the old lady is old, her temper has improved a lot."

"It's also thanks to you that you tidied this place up so that after I came back, I could actually remember it a little bit."

"If you don't mind the crowd, you can also stay in this small courtyard."

"I can't live here for too long, two or three years at the shortest, four or five years at the longest. This courtyard will eventually be yours." The old man said in one breath.

"Why have you only lived here for these few years?" Shi Feizhe asked.

"Simple! Because I'm dying." The old man said casually.

"Dead?" Shi Feizhe was puzzled. This old man transformed his Qi into a sword so effortlessly. He had to be at least a Zhou Tian master, perhaps even a True Person Realm expert. How could he die so easily?

"The life span of warriors in the world is ultimately limited. What's so strange about death?" The old man looked at Shi Feizhe in surprise and said.

"Could it be, one hundred and forty-nine?" Shi Feizhe asked. He seemed to have heard a blind man say that a warrior's maximum lifespan was one hundred and forty-nine.

Even the invincible Yuan Jiuchong!

Think of the “Nine Yuan” on the wooden box from top to bottom.

This old man's name is Chong Jiuyuan, could it be...

No, no! The world's number one expert owed him fifteen taels of silver.

The world of Jianghu is too magical!

Is there still morality in the world?

If the name is reversed and it is still the same person, then Fan Jianqiang is...

This old man's name is probably just a coincidence!

"That's right! Young man, although you come from a humble background, you do have some knowledge!" The old man said, "My life span is almost over, and I just want to spend a few years here in peace and contentment."

Shi Feizhe pondered for a moment. With this old man's level of cultivation, crushing him would be far more effective than crushing a grasshopper. After all the talk, he must have no ill will towards him.

It’s really troublesome to go over mountains and hills to find a remote place!

"Okay! Grandpa, let's squeeze in! I'll clean up, you live in the east room, and I'll live in the west room!" Shi Feizhe said to the old man.

"Okay! Let's flatten the sculpture in the middle lobby, put some sundries in it, and make it more spacious." said the old man.

"What kind of statue is that?" Shi Feizhe was very curious about the half-collapsed clay statue.

He had only preserved half of it and hadn't demolished it. Now, it was a bit crowded for two people to live in three rooms, but after demolishing the clay statue, they would have more space.

"Well, it's a God of Wealth." The old man thought for a moment and said with a smile.

"Huh? This little temple actually worships the God of Wealth?"

"When my master was here, we worshipped Zhenwu Emperor. Later, when the incense wasn't popular, my master told the people down the mountain that Zhenwu Emperor is also the God of Wealth, and moreover, the God of Martial Wealth! Only with martial arts can there be wealth, and only with wealth can there be martial arts! So the incense gradually became more popular, and it saved my master and I from starving to death."

The old man talked about his childhood with a nostalgic look on his face.

What happened a hundred years ago seems to have happened just yesterday.

I guess all those who worshipped the God of Wealth at that time have turned into dust!

Now, it’s my turn!

"By the way, I still don't know what to call you, little brother?" The old man suddenly remembered that he didn't know what to call the young man in front of him.

"My name is Shi Feizhe!"

"Huh? Shi Feizhe?" The old man thought for a moment and said, "It's rumored that an old devil appeared in the north and brought disaster to the entire Qiuyang City, leaving it in ruins. That old devil's name is Shi Feizhe."

"It's just a coincidence that we have the same name!" Shi Feizhe denied it with a dark face.

It’s been half a year, who is still throwing dirty water on me?

"Come to think of it, it's said that the old devil loves to pretend to be young and deceive people! I have seen many people pretending to be young, but none of them have such clear and stupid eyes as yours! You are definitely not the old devil." The old man shook his head and said.

"I'm not an old devil at all! The old man is really knowledgeable..." Shi Feizhe finally met someone who didn't think he was a devil. He was about to flatter the other person, but suddenly found something wrong.

No, old man, you might as well explain it more clearly!

What does it mean to be clear and stupid?

If I can beat you, I will definitely blow your head off, old man!

Having said that, the old man and the young man settled down on this mountain.

One is waiting to die, the other is surviving.

To be humble is to avoid being humble.
