1455  Legend of Boundary Bridge Village, Forging (1)

"I know that such skills can't be taught easily," Cao Yue said nervously. "But Uncle Peng and the villagers often get injured when they go hunting in the mountains. If I can learn how to heal them, they won't die from injuries…"

Cao Yue's face flushed red. He knew that his request was too much. In the past, he had heard the storyteller say that, in many places, it was only possible to learn skills after being an apprentice for many years.

Uncle Peng had been seriously injured. Then Zhou Shu made a move, and he instantly recovered.

This ability was simply heaven-defying. What price would he have to pay to learn this ability?

Even though Cao Yue was just a village boy, he knew that he couldn't afford to pay such a price.

But when he thought about how people in the village would die every year because they lacked treatment for their injuries, Cao Yue couldn't help begging Zhou Shu.

Cao Yue said with a flushed face, "Uncle, I don't have money now, but if you have any requests, I can work hard to fulfill them. I—"

"No need." Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. "I can understand why you want to learn for the safety of the villagers. But I'm sorry, Little Brother Cao. You can't learn this ability."

"Uncle, I can do anything. I can do laundry, cook, and make beds," Cao Yue said anxiously. "I heard that if you want to learn skills, you have to help others work. I can do anything. I'm not afraid of hards.h.i.+p…"

"That's not what I meant." Zhou Shu shook his head. "What I mean is that you won't be able to learn this ability.

"If it's just to help the villagers, I can teach you other skills."

Before Zhou Shu could finish speaking, a figure rushed in. "Little Yue!"

It was Peng Jiuyuan.

He looked angry as he stared at Cao Yue. "Get out!"

Cao Yue was shocked and at a loss.

Zhou Shu couldn't stand it anymore. "Uncle Peng…"

Peng Jiuyuan suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Shu. "You promised me not to involve him!"

Peng Jiuyuan said solemnly, "I can do anything with my old bones, but Little Yue is still young!"

"Uncle Peng, you've misunderstood," Zhou Shu said helplessly. He was in a difficult position.

How many years had it been since anyone dared to speak to him like this?

If this was the ancestral land, countless people would want to become his disciple.

When it came to Peng Jiuyuan, he was afraid that Cao Yue would interact too much with him.

He didn't know what kind of opportunity this was for Cao Yue.

But Zhou Shu also understood Peng Jiuyuan's thoughts.

Cao Yue was the only bloodline of Peng Jiuyuan's friend, and Peng Jiuyuan treated Zhou Shu as a villain who wanted to overturn the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom. If he interacted too much with Zhou Shu, it would definitely be dangerous.

It was reasonable that Peng Jiuyuan didn't want Cao Yue to be related to Zhou Shu.

But he really thought wrong.

"Little Brother Cao just wants to learn how to heal others so that he can help treat you when you're injured." Zhou Shu shrugged. "Unfortunately, I don't know medicine, so I rejected him."

Embarra.s.sment flashed across Peng Jiuyuan's face. He looked at Cao Yue and asked, "Is that so?"

Cao Yue hurriedly nodded.

Peng Jiuyuan heaved a sigh of relief, but he still put on a straight face and berated, "Didn't I tell you? Your Uncle Cao is injured and needs to recuperate. Don't disturb him! Are you not going to listen to me anymore?"

"I…" Cao Yue stammered, not knowing what to say.

"Go out first. I need to talk to Uncle Cao about something!" Peng Jiuyuan said with a cold expression.

Cao Yue left dejectedly.

Zhou Shu shook his head speechlessly. "Peng Jiuyuan, you don't have to guard against me like you're guarding against a thief."

Only Zhou Shu and Peng Jiuyuan were left in the room. Zhou Shu no longer had any scruples when speaking. "You and Cao Yue are my saviors. I have always repaid kindness. I won't harm you."

Peng Jiuyuan said seriously, "Lord, I believe what you say is true, but I've lived for decades and seen a lot. You're a big shot. Little Yue and I are just ordinary villagers. What's insignificant to you big shots might be a monstrous wave to us. Little Yue really can't withstand it.

"Lord, Little Yue is not of the Peng family's bloodline. He has nothing to do with the Heavenly Court."

Peng Jiuyuan said heroically, "I can die for you, Lord. I just hope that you won't get Little Yue involved."

Zhou Shu was speechless.

Zhou Shu had nothing to do with the Heavenly Court.

He didn't come to the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom to destroy it. It was a coincidence!

It was a huge misunderstanding!

Zhou Shu couldn't be bothered to explain anymore.

Peng Jiuyuan already had a preconceived notion. No matter how he explained, he probably wouldn't believe him.

In this case, he would think of another way to repay Cao Yue's favor.

"Alright, I agree." Zhou Shu waved his hand. "But Peng Jiuyuan, even if you want Cao Yue to be an ordinary person in this small mountain village for the rest of his life, you have to teach him some skills, right?"

Zhou Shu said, "Will it always be safe here? I see that the villagers of Boundary Bridge Village usually go up the mountains to hunt. Is there no danger here?"
