Chapter 226: Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-Two:
Old Xu looked at Mi Bai, realizing that the same spark was shining in his eyes as well!
Although the master is gone, his works will certainly remain and be celebrated throughout history.
If Tang Luo could understand that master so well, the tradition must’ve been passed on to the Tang Clan.
Thinking of the thousands of unheard poems, Old Xu eagerly asked, “Do you have the original manuscripts at home? Let's takea look!”
Tang Luo tilted his head, quite puzzled, “Original manuscript? What original manuscript?”
“The original manuscript of the other poems!”
“There’s no manuscript.”
“Then did you copy this master’s anthology?”
“No anthology.”
“How many of this master’s poems do you remember then?”
“Just this one.” Tang Luo replied flatly.
Over a thousand fresh poems disappeared just like that, it felt like he woke up one day to find himself bankrupt.
Old Xu pointed at Tang Luo, his angry finger trembling, “You., you... you...” Upon hearing that the only poem left by this masterin the world was this ‘Looking at the mountain’, Mi Bai’s expression also became desolate, but he knew it was not Tang Luo’sfault.
After all, the path of poetry is dwindling and mainly popular in brothels. How could a martial artist of peerless talent take interestin it?novelbin
Mi Bai lightly patted Old Xu’s shoulder and advised: “Being able to obtain a single remarkable poem is already a blessing. Whyshould brother Xu mourn
so.
Though, Tang Luo was quite calm. He wasn’t interested in poetry to begin with, the memorable spirit and verve in this ‘Looking atthe mountain’ poem was the reason he remembered it.
Not to mention how he could remember it clearly even after a whole fifteen years in this world.“Sigh.” Old Xu sighed, his face full of loneliness. “I feel like getting drunk now.”
It would be best if he could get drunk enough to forget that such a master existed once, who composed over a thousand and fivehundred poems.
Only like that, he wouldn't feel so heartbroken.
Looking at the two desolate ‘literati’, Tang Luo scratched his chin and reminded them: “We've seen the clouds and sung ourverses, isn’t it about time we descend the mountain?”
“Hum!” Old Xu huffed at Tang Luo annoyedly, “With Du Ziteng and Yang Fan around, are you still afraid the child will get lost?”
He was still sinking in the pain of loss and couldn't calm down, consequently, he couldn’t speak gently to Tang Luo. However,after hearing Tang Luo’s reminder, Mi Bai quickly agreed: “Yes, yes, yes, we should go down quickly.” When the three of themreturned to the bamboo forest, they saw a group of children rushing up. They swarmed around Mi Bai, their faces filled withexcitement and their eyes revealing uncontrollable curiosity.
Flying was always a romantic thing no matter where it was. And the sky was a mysterious place full of attraction. The childrenkept asking Mi Bai what's in the sky.
Old Xu hadn't come out of his regret yet. He went straight to the pavilion, grabbed the half-empty bottle of bamboo liquor, andstarted to guzzle it down.
As the saying goes, drinking to drown one’s sorrow only makes sorrow worse, ton ton ton ton ton ton ton.
For the first time in his life, he understood what it felt like to lose a billion. Tang Luo, who just threw up, was feeling a bit weak.Just as he was about to go into the pavilion to replenish his energy, he saw Du Ziteng coming toward him. The young martialartist's face was full of sadness and fragility. However, he still insisted on coming to Tang Luo and asked, “Why did you tell me allthese things?”
mmOh, you've become smarter,” Tang Luo laughed. This straightforward young man was even considering his motives andasking about them. It seemed he was no longer a naive young man.
Hearing Tang Luo’s mockery, Du Ziteng could only give a bitter smile. Was he any smarter? He didn’t think so.
It was just that after the Star Pavilion incident, his father told him that there might be inexplicable malice in the world, but therewould never be unprovoked kindness. Therefore, he should always question why.
Even with his wisdom, he could understand that Tang Luo’s direct exposure to the problem with the Red Cloud Skill wasn’t just acasual chat. But he had racked his brains and still couldn’t figure out Tang Luo’s aim.
So for a moment he looked melancholic, but gathered his courage and approached to ask.
But Tang Luo didn’t answer, just laughed. He took off his Dragon Soul pendant from his waist and handed it to Du Ziteng, “Here,relay what | said to your clan leader. Take this as your tip.”
Du Ziteng looked at the Dragon Soul pendant, a light of joy in his eyes. This spiritual instrument, originally sought by his fatherfor his protection, was given to Tang Luo as an apology. He had been obsessing over this for a while, and seeing the DragonSoul pendant returned to him, he momentarily forgot about probing the truth.
He swallowed hard and asked, “Really... really giving it to me?” Tang Luo, with his eyes narrowed and smiling, pushed the jadependant forward again, “Just take it if | give it to you. You’re done here, you can go home now.”
Du Ziteng’s eyes stared at the white jade Dragon Pendant in front of him. He took it with both hands and then hurried off withoutlooking back, as if he was afraid Tang Luo might change his mind.
Watching his anxious figure, Tang Luo chuckled again, sat down in the pavilion, and pleasantly picked up a peanut and put it inhis mouth.
“Hmm- crispy and delicious,” Tang Luo praised.
“Belch-” Old Xu let out a belch after drinking, putting down the empty wine flask, and asked Tang Luo, “Are you planning to winover the Red Cloud Village?”
He had heard the conversationbetween the two just now. He didn'tknow Tang Luo’s intention before, butseeing the last scene handing overthe Dra peor it would beludicrous if he couldn't see whatTang Luo was up to. Only a goof likeDu Ziteng would think that theDragon Soul was just a fee forrunning errands. The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
Old Xu, with a gloomy face, initiated the conversation with Tang Luo, that’s rare.
Tang Luo turned his head, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smile, “Aren’t you mad anymore?”
“lm mad!” Old Xu answered very decisively. “But I’ve decided not to make a fuss with you who don’t appreciate.”Turing a blind eye to Xu, Tang Luo ignored the displeasure and just picked up another peanut, relishing it.
As a gentleman who can feel other people’s emotions, Tang Luo’s calmness aroused Old Xu’s curiosity once more: “Are you sosure that you can solve the problem with that lower-level practice?”
There are two ways to win overpeople: through kindness or throughpower.

“I'll try. There won't be any loss if it doesn’t work.” Tang Luo replied casually with a smile.
