Old man looked at Zhang ruishi and said with serious tone "so, you're not going to choose fire path as your main cultivation"
"Yes master" said Zhang ruishi with low voice.
suddenly old man brunt with laughter "Hahahha so you are same as me, good kid good, before coming here you have investigated about me 'yang huang' right, hahaha" the old man laughed as his head held up.
It has been so long someone came to yang huang's wooden shop to buy something from him, he thought zhang ruishi came to his shop by mistake. but after listening to zhang ruishi the old man understood Zhang ruishi intention.
That right, before Zhang ruishi enter the old man shop he had investigated about old man yang Huang. If Zhang ruishi have gone to another wooden shop in lie yan village he will be chased out because he will not be choosing the fire path cultivation as the main cultivation path.
Old man yang Huang cultivated wood path mainly after that he had cultivated fire path secondly, this made lie yan village people angry. People started calling him "disgrace for the yang family, failure of yang family". Even his own family members have turned their back. But old man Huang never lost hope, He started his business in the lie yan village and have been running this business over 40 years now.
"There will be no payment required, yang huang will do this favour for you, but you need to bring your own wooden materials" said old man huang.
"Master yang huang, zhang ruishi will never forget your kindness" said zhang ruishi with utmost respect.
Yang huang waved his hand and said "go and bring large strong tree, the tree bark will be Gray brown in colour and its height will be around 40 to 50 feet and don't forget to bring some bamboo"
"I will be back as soon as possible master" said zhang ruishi and went outside of the shop.
Everyone saw zhang ruishi coming out of the shop. zhang ruishi saw them but he didn't care. He went to a vegetables shop and exchanged chopped woods for some cucumbers.
He reached his house and pushed the door open he prepared some cucumber soup and feed it to his sister, and he had some of it. after that he went outside and started sharping the axe.
Before sharpening, zhang ruishi checked for Chips or cracks in the edge. after that he started grinding the edge with natural stone, the axe blade was pushed against the stone at a steady angle. zhang ruishi often added water to reduce heat. with this he restored some of the axe edge sharpness. after that he cleaned the blade and started walking towards the trees. he searched for large trees like instructed by the old man, after some time he found a tree which is in the same description the old man mentioned.
The sun is high in the sky, zhang ruishi started cutting down the tree with the axe. it took around 6 hours to cut it down after that he went to collect bamboos. he took both the bamboo and the tree to the old man shop.
By the time he reached the shop the sun vanished, and the moon appeared the shops in the village were about to close
taptaptapp....
zhang ruishi knocking on the old man's door.
the old man opened the door and looked at zhang ruishi and said "ohh zhang ruishi, what are you doing here at this time" zhang ruishi didn't say any word but after seeing the tree behind zhang ruishi the old man was shocked. He didn't though that zhang ruishi will be this fast. he said, "great job kid your so fast" the old man laughed and continued "It will take, hmmm at least one full day to make what you asked, I will be starting it tomorrow, it will be ready day after tomorrow".
zhang ruishi didn't say anything he thanked the old man and left.
zhang ruishi has traveled half of the distance from the village to his home when suddenly he felt a heat sensation from his right hand.
zhang ruishi pupil struck he started running as his life depends on it. the heat sensations increasing and decreasing on his right hand. the heat sensation is coming from the heat thread which is tired on his right hand. the increasing of heat indicating someone approaching his sister zhang yi nuo.
zhang ruishi ran as fast as he can. dodged trees, jumped rocks which are blocking him, he never stopped running for a second. his breathing becomes rough, the heat sensations increasing and decreasing made zhang ruishi anxious.
zhang ruishi started thinking "if it was a beast, it will directly attack his sister, why does it didn't do it."
if someone attacked his sister the heat thread will burn itself from the excess heat. so zhang ruishi will know his sister is attacked but the heat thread heat's is increasing and decreasing
"Did bo zhao came back for me thinking I will break the agreement" zhang ruishi thought about it.
he reached near his house the door is wide open. He stabilized his breathing and took the axe before slowly going inside the house without making any sound.
after entering the hall, he couldn't find anyone, but a faint flower smell covered the room.
zhang ruishi ignored it and slowly open the door which his sister is sleeping, he saw his sister safe and his mind relaxed.
zhang ruishi slowly closed the door and placed his axe aside.
Suddenly drops of green water liquids are formed and fused with one another around the room which zhang ruishi was present, he was shocked by the changes before him. the fused liquid formed a figure. She is wearing blue robe with flowers design on it. her hair and eyes are in the Very dark green with a teal undertone in colour.
she looked at zhang ruishi.
zhang ruishi didn't say anything he stood still, his eyes as dark as the night sky focused on her. He knew this person didn't came for trouble if so, she would have attack him when he entered the room, but she didn't. She could also take hostage of his sister, but she didn't do it, but he was on guard and ready to attack her any moment.
