Half a month later, in Jiangling City.
The best restaurant in the city, Linjiang Xian Shang.
Chen Ang sat in front of the window with a book of Yijing in his hand. His eyes were looking at the wide surface of the Changjiang River. His gaze was distant and deep. In front of him, Qu Feiyan looked at him angrily but did not even bother to look at Indigo Phoenix who was beside her.
"Why do we have to bring this old woman along!" Qu Feiyan glanced at Indigo Phoenix in disgust and mumbled, "Ugly, stupid, can't even cook, and can't even speak the Central Plains Chinese well. There's no point in bringing her along."
Indigo Phoenix was taking small bites of delicacies and did not listen to her at all.
"But the Five Poisons Sect is willing to pay a high price to redeem her!" Chen Ang turned around and said with a smile, "She's worth much more than you. The people of Miaojiang have already brought me more than ten local ancient books. When they are done copying the Miaojiang Witch Medicine, it will be a few secret books. No matter how you look at it, she's a very useful person!"
"Do you really want to write all this in your medical book? Wouldn't that be too easy for those who reap without sowing? "Qu Feiyan mumbled and looked at the book in Chen Ang's hand that was half copied.
"Writing books and theories should be something that can be spread to the world. It's a taboo in learning to neglect one's own value! If everyone in the martial arts world could be open-minded, the path of martial arts would have long flourished in the world. You must know that the knowledge of the people in the world is profound knowledge. If you work behind closed doors, the road will only get narrower and narrower. "Chen Ang laughed.
"During the Song Dynasty, there were Xiantian Masters in the path of martial arts. There were even more masters. Look at today. In the martial arts world, it's full of thieves and thieves. In the tiger mountain, it's monkeys who call themselves kings. Doesn't this show the harm of neglecting one's own value?"
"But why do you want to write a medical book? Why don't you write a martial arts book and spread it to the world? Let martial arts flourish! "Qu Feiyan danced and suggested excitedly.
"You've been by my side, and I've been teaching you for several months. How much have you learned?" Chen Ang looked at Qu Feiyan until she lowered her head in embarrassment. "If I write a martial arts secret manual, I may be able to create one or two masters, but in the Jianghu, it will inevitably set off a bloody storm. The number of masters that will die will be even more than what is created!"
"Even if there were one or two masters, what use would it be to the general trend of the martial arts world? Zhang Sanfeng, Reverend Zhang, Patriarch Bodhidharma, their martial arts realms are not much higher than mine, but can Wudang and Shaolin stop the decline of martial arts? "
These words made Qu Fei Yan and Indigo Phoenix feel ashamed. The two of them sighed in anger at his incompetence.
Chen Ang leisurely said, "Nowadays, the way of medical dialectics is flourishing. People love to learn medicine and are willing to learn it. Doctors are also willing to learn and exchange knowledge. Famous doctors and highly-skilled doctors are emerging one after another. Let's not talk about others, but Mister Dongbi, Li Shizhen, is a great doctor. He is determined to refer to ancient medical books and wrote a book called 'Compendium of Materia Medica' to summarize all the medicines in the world. I am also very impressed! "
"In today's Jianghu, is there a hero like Mister Li? Is there such a person with such great ambition? This book of mine, 'Surgery', is also a summary of my efforts. If it is published in the world, it will definitely promote the rise of medicine. At that time, famous doctors and righteous people will emerge one after another, and this book will definitely be deduced to a new level. I can also learn from them. Isn't it better than mingling in the Jianghu? "
"In the Jianghu, there is actually no one who can be called a hero! Fighting for power and profit, like flies and dogs, they are all a bunch of dogs guarding the grave. For power, they will do anything. It is really a pool of filth! "Qu Feiyan slammed the table and said angrily.
At the table outside, there were seven to eight men with weapons. They were furious when they heard this. One of them, a dark skinny middle-aged man, coldly snorted, "You little girl, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Qu Feiyan coldly glanced at him and coldly snorted, "Your eyes are full of such ruffians, no wonder the Jianghu is like this."
The man was furious. Seeing that Qu Feiyan was in her teens, he did not want to argue with her. Turning his eyes, he saw that Chen Ang did not care. With a grin, he carried his knife and walked up shakily. Seeing Indigo Phoenix's charming look, he could not help but tease, "The lady there is so seductive. Come, have a drink with me!"
Indigo Phoenix coldly glanced at him. With a flash of her right hand, a Scorpion Tail Needle was already fixed on his neck. The man's face turned green, and he fell to the ground.
Qu Feiyan also clapped her white hands and laughed, "Come, I will treat you to peanuts!"
As she said this, she grabbed the plate in front of her and raised her hand to throw a piece of peanuts. It was only half the size of a finger, but the force was like a flying rock. It smashed into the faces of the few people, causing them to cover their faces and cry out in pain.
"Good martial arts! What a beautiful rain of peanuts!" A loud laugh came from downstairs, "Good martial arts!" When he spoke, he was still several hundred feet away, at the bottom of the building. By the time he finished speaking, the person had already entered through the window. It was a tall and lean old man. Chen Ang looked at him for a few times and saw that his inner force was mixed. The Yongquan point at the bottom of his feet had some hidden injuries.
The Yongquan point was well hidden, so it was difficult to injure it. His injuries were obviously caused by internal energy. Immediately, he understood what was going on. Then, he heard Indigo Phoenix exclaim.
"Xiang Wentian!"
"Xiang Wentian!"
Qu Feiyan and Indigo Phoenix exclaimed at the same time. On the contrary, Chen Ang looked relaxed. Xiang Wentian was very famous. He was a loyal follower of Ren Woxing. He knew some small techniques to absorb internal energy into the ground. No wonder his Yongquan point was injured. However, this person's martial arts was only slightly weaker than Chong Xu and Fang Zheng.
"Mister Xiang must have come here for a reason. I wonder what it is that would require you to help Mister Xiang?" Chen Ang raised his cup and said with a smile. Although he said so, he already knew what was going on.
Xiang Wentian's greatest ambition was to follow Ren Woxing and rule the Sun Moon Sect! He came here because he heard that Chen Ang could cure the Three Corpse Mind Loss Pill. He wanted to find someone to help him deal with Dongfang Bubai. It would be best if he could help him save Ren Woxing. Chen Ang, who could cure the Three Corpse Mind Loss Pill, was definitely a thorn in the side of the Sun Moon Sect. Both of them had the same interests. If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely not reject such a good thing.
But Chen Ang was no ordinary person. He cured the Three Corpse Mind Loss Pill and sent them to search for rare ancient books and third-grade martial arts. He didn't put the Sun Moon Sect in his eyes, nor did he treat Dongfang Bubai, who was obsessed with embroidery, as an enemy. Xiang Wentian was probably looking for the wrong person if he wanted to play the game of 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend'!
"Brother Chen defeated the Five Sacred Mountains with his sword and suppressed the evil spirits. I, Xiang Wentian, am very impressed. I heard that Brother Chen was upstairs drinking wine and talking about heroes. I, Xiang Wentian, would like to come up and ask Brother Chen, who do you think is a hero in the martial world?" Xiang Wentian's face was expressionless and he spoke in a forthright manner.
"Oh? Could it be that Heavenly King Xiang also wants to fight for the title of hero? "Chen Ang smiled faintly.
Hearing this, Xiang Wentian pretended to be generous and said, "You flatter me! I don't have peerless martial arts and I don't have heroic spirit. How would I dare to think of myself as a hero? I only heard that the Left Sect Leader of Mount Song has great ambitions and wants to unite the Five Sacred Mountains! He has the spirit to swallow the martial world. I wonder if he can be considered a hero? "
"Zuo Leng Chan has the ambition of an ambitious and ruthless person. Unfortunately, his methods are underhanded and he acts sneakily. He can be said to be a real villain. How can he be considered a hero?" Chen Ang said lightly.
Xiang Wentian saw that Chen Ang was criticizing Zuo Leng Chan. He was secretly delighted and asked again, "That Dongfang Bubai, as the Cult Leader of the Evil Sect, has peerless martial arts and has suppressed the martial world for more than ten years. He has the spirit to swallow the world. Can he be considered a hero?"
"Dongfang Bubai's martial arts may be high, but he has long lost interest in Jianghu. He only hopes to spend his days admiring the flowers in peace. How can such a person be considered a hero?" Chen Ang raised his head and said.
Xiang Wentian was overjoyed. He was just testing Chen Ang. When he saw that Chen Ang really did not fear Dongfang Bubai, he felt relieved. "That Chong Xu and Fang Zheng, these two experts, maintain the martial world's order and uphold justice in Jianghu. Shaolin and Wudang are so famous that they can be called heroes!"
"A ghost guarding a corpse dares to be called a hero?" Chen Ang did not hold back. Although Chong Xu and Fang Zheng were magnanimous in their actions, they were still unable to walk the path of political trickery. They could be guardians of a sect, but in Jianghu, Chen Ang was extremely disdainful of them. They were all sect leaders but Qiao Feng was more than a thousand times better than them.
Xiang Wentian slapped the table and said happily, "Then Abbess Ding Yi, Priest Tian Men, Yue Buqun and the like, can they be called heroes?"
Chen Ang laughed and said, "How can a mediocre person be called a hero? Only Yue Buqun is somewhat scheming. Unfortunately, his methods are despicable. He is just a hypocrite! "
"What a hypocrite!" Xiang Wentian said loudly, "Brother Chen's words should be punished!"
He lowered his voice and said in a deep voice, "In my opinion, among the heroes of the present age, only Cult Leader Ren and Brother Chen are worthy of being called heroes!"
"Hahaha!" Chen Ang laughed so hard that tears almost flowed out of his eyes. He pointed at Xiang Wentian and said, "What crime did I commit? To be called the same as Ren Woxing! Is he worthy? "
Chen Ang raised his foot and a green sword fell into his hand. He laughed and said, "Ren Woxing has great ambition but little talent. He is incapable when it comes to big things and overworks when it comes to small things. He is short-sighted and likes to seek personal gain. It's too much to call him a despicable person, but it's fine to call him a mediocre person. You've been defeated by Dongfang Bubai, yet you dare to say you're brave?"
"Even though I'm a person who seeks Dao and is free and easy, I can't be called a hero. But to be called the same as him, you're underestimating me too much!"
Xiang Wentian's face turned cold and the veins on his hands bulged. He said coldly, "Then what do you think of me?"
Chen Ang said disdainfully, "Heroic but hypocritical, loyal but treacherous. He looks like he's loyal but he's actually a treacherous person. He's a scheming person who doesn't care about his methods. He's just a fake hero, someone like Yue Buqun!" In Chen Ang's eyes, Xiang Wentian didn't have any great spirit. His acting skills were passable and he could be called the same as Yue Buqun.
