Chapter 83 Right-hand Man

At the same time, Jiang Beiran left the Order of Water Mirror and went back to the back of the mountain after Shi Fenglan said goodbye to him reluctantly. When he went up the mountain, he heard the sound of a flute from afar.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran quickened his pace and arrived outside the formations he had set up.

“It’s Qinghuan.” Jiang Beiran greeted him with a smile when he saw the flute player at the door.

Hearing his senior brother’s voice, Gu Qinghuan put down the jade flute, turned around, and bowed respectfully to Jiang Beiran, “Greetings, Brother Jiang.”

“Let’s go, we’ll talk later.”

After bringing Gu Qinghuan back to Purple Bamboo Garden, Jiang Beiran poured two cups of moonlight white, and put one cup in front of Gu Qinghuan, asking, “Did you have a good trip this time?”

“Thank you.” Gu Qinghuan took the teacup with both hands, put down the big box on his back, and cupped his hands, saying, “Fortunately, I didn’t fail you. I’ve brought back everything you asked for.”

“Everything on the list?”

“Yes.” Gu Qinghuan nodded.

“Very good. You’re still as excellent as ever.” Jiang Beiran said with satisfaction.

Gu Qinghuan was a new disciple of Jiang Beiran when he was the iron seal three years ago. When spending time with Gu Qinghuan, Jiang Beiran knew that he was neither a second-generation disciple nor a top-notch talent in cultivation. He was picked up and brought into the sect just like him.

Later, during the trial, Gu Qinghuan’s agility and calmness were appreciated by Jiang Beiran. Even if Jiang Beiran was not around that time, Gu Qinghuan was able to take on the responsibility of the temporary team leader.

This made Jiang Beiran want to take him as his right-hand man. It was also the first time Jiang Beiran took the initiative to do so.

Later, Gu Qinghuan passed all the tests secretly arranged by Jiang Beiran very smoothly. More importantly, the system did not give Jiang Beiran any unfavorable option after taking Gu Qinghuan as a helper.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran told Gu Qinghuan his secrets. He told Gu Qinghuan a part of his strength and plan and asked him if he wanted to follow him.

Gu Qinghuan was also very happy. He agreed Jiang Beiran’s offer and didn’t say any nonsense.

This made Jiang Beiran more and more satisfied, because he knew that a smart person like Gu Qinghuan must be secretly observing him, but he didn’t say it out loud, nor did he use any high-sounding words to show his ability. It was just a simple sentence, “Please take care of me in the future, Brother Jiang.”

Jiang Beiran admired this kind of person who could hide his cleverness in his heart and not show it on the surface.

Jiang Beiran had already arranged for Wu Qingce to collect the natural treasures in the wild, which needed more force. Therefore, the quest given to Gu Qinghuan was to exchange the unused or unwanted items in his hands for useful ones through trade.

Gu Qinghua’s reward is the same as Wu Qingce, Jiang Beiran will custom-made weapons, defensive equipment and pills for him.

In the next three years, Gu Qinghuan’s performance was as excellent as Jiang Beiran had imagined. Not only could Gu Qinghuan complete the quest that he had assigned to him every time, but he could also use his limited resources to set up a strong network and pull up a huge trading network. It was very impressive.

After drinking the tea, Jiang Beiran carried Gu Qinghuan’s box on his back and waved at him, “Let’s go. I’ll show you a good place.”

After climbing over two hills, Jiang Beiran brought Gu Qinghuan to the new cultivation place that he had gotten from Order Master.

“I’ve set up the formations and planted the purple bamboo. You can come here if you want to practice.”

Looking at the cottage and courtyard, Gu Qinghuan turned to Jiang Beiran and bowed solemnly, “I appreciate your kindness, Brother Jiang!”

It had to be said that God was always fair. Although Gu Qinghuan was much wiser and more mature than his peers, he was still far behind in terms of cultivation.

Three years had passed, and he was only at level two of the mystic realm. Although his progress was not slow, it was only average. It would be difficult for him to apply for the training ground at the back of the mountain with his talent.

However, Gu Qinghuan was a very strong person. Although his talent was not good, he still worked very hard. While completing the various quest given to him by Jiang Beiran, he also worked hard in cultivation.

Now that he had finally obtained the training ground that he had always dreamed of, he was particularly excited.

“Of course, you have to take care of them too.” Jiang Beiran said as he took out a black jar from the box. He opened the lid, and inside was a palm-sized Ghost-faced Spider with gray fur.

The Ghost-faced Spider immediately climbed out of Jiang Beiran’s hand and bit his arm.

However, no matter how hard it tried, its teeth could not break Jiang Beiran’s skin. The unyielding Ghost-faced Spider was about to continue to exert force when it suddenly felt itself rise into the air and come to the air.

“Tsk tsk, you’re not good. I didn’t do anything to you. Why did you bite me?”

Naturally, the Ghost-faced Spider didn’t understand what Jiang Beiran was saying. Its eight legs and a pair of pincers kept waving in the air as if it was panicking.

“Don’t be afraid. I’m not a bad person. Come, let me see what you look like,” Jiang Beiran said as he placed it on his palm and observed it carefully. “Hmm… about 12 centimeters long. It should be a male. Its head and chest should be shorter than its abdomen…” Jiang Beiran said as he reached out his hand to remove the hair on the spider’s abdomen, “Mm, dark brown. Not bad. It’s the kind with a stronger toxicity.” Then, Jiang Beiran flipped the Ghost-faced Spider over and examined its back. He found that there was a layer of breastplate under the hair on its back, which meant that it was at least a level one mystic beast.

The Ghost-faced Spider was tossed around by Jiang Beiran. It had never been humiliated like this before. Its eight single eyes rolled around anxiously. Soon, it found an opportunity to flip over and spit out the spider silk at Jiang Beiran with all its strength.

However, Jiang Beiran, who had expected such a situation, grabbed the spider silk with his right hand.

“That’s it? It’s not sticky enough. It’s not even on average. It seems that it can’t be used to make magic tools.” Jiang Beiran said in disappointment as he rubbed his fingers.

Gu Qinghuan, who was feeling the spiritual essence here, cupped his hands when he heard Jiang Beiran said that the spider was not good enough. “I’m sorry, Brother Jiang. I’ll choose it more carefully next time.”

“Oh, it’s okay, it’s okay.” Jiang Beiran waved his hand at Gu Qinghuan. “This Ghost-faced Spider is good-looking, and its poison should be strong enough. As for the spider silk, it’s just a bonus. Even if it’s not good enough, it doesn’t matter.”

Although the Ghost-faced Spider didn’t understand what Jiang Beiran was saying, it still felt very unhappy, so it bit Jiang Beiran’s index finger fiercely.

However, the result was the same. It couldn’t even bite through the skin of its finger.

After the initial observation of the Ghost-faced Spider, Jiang Beiran squatted down and placed it on the ground.

The Ghost-faced Spider had suddenly regained its freedom. It pulled up its eight legs and ran toward the grass nearby. However, just as it was about to drill into the grass, a large hand fell from the sky and grabbed it into the air.

“Its speed is not bad. It can be used for sneak attacks.”

The spider’s legs did not have any muscles. Instead, they were filled with a kind of liquid. The spider could adjust the pressure of this liquid at any time to control the movement of its eight legs. That was why it could move freely on the spider web.

If there was study of physics in this world, Jiang Beiran would tell them that this was called hydraulic transmission.

Whether a spider was fast enough depended on its control of pressure. Similarly, talent was also very important. Some spiders were born with eight legs and the liquid in their legs was different from other spiders. The same pressure could allow them to run several times faster. However, the Ghost-faced Spider in Jiang Beiran’s hand was obviously a good talent.

“Not bad, not bad. You still have a lot of potential. It will definitely be better if you raise it again.”

After saying that, Jiang Beiran put the Ghost-faced Spider back into the black jar.
