In the following days, Wuqi was very confused and could not feel any signs of breaking through, nor did he feel any essence and fullness. During this period, in order to confirm whether his method was wrong, he even went to the boy who ran away and consulted the other party whether his lifestyle was wrong.
The answer given by the boy Sancai was very simple, just nodding.
Wuqi thought about it for a moment, and in this way, his lifestyle is not wrong. If you continue, you should have a day of full essence, and your understanding should also make a qualitative leap at that time.
But the fact is, will it really develop like this? No...
Just as Wu Qi continued to live in this way day after day with confidence, he gradually discovered a problem: What do you have to understand to become a dual power? The boy who scattered money was not willing to tell him no matter what, but just told himself that this kind of understanding can only be understood but not expressed in words.
So what is this kind of understanding that I lack?
Wuqi thought about this question for a long time but couldn't get the answer.
However, life still has to be lived day by day, and life has to continue, in order not to affect your mentality. Wuqi still cannot focus too much energy on this issue. He can only always maintain a normal mind, paint during the day, rest like ordinary people at night, and try his best to hope that the day of breakthrough will come sooner.
Unfortunately, hope is beautiful, but reality is cruel. After a whole month of such a life without any progress, Wuqi finally became a little anxious.
"Why? Why don't I feel full of essence until now? Also, what does the so-called essence and essence mean? What does the understanding I lack refer to?"
So, every day after that, Wuqi began to try to ask himself in this way, hoping to stimulate his potential and think of the most critical thing. However, failures followed one after another. As the days passed day by day, Wuqi got nothing but disappointment and loss, except failure, and nothing exciting information.
It was not until this time that Wu Qi finally realized that when his strength reached a bottleneck in his realm, it was even more difficult to break through, especially for people like himself who had no talent in cultivation.
But Wuqi didn't know at this moment that, just at this moment, on an Iceland tens of thousands of miles away, Julia did not feel the difficulty of breaking through at all in an Iceland secret forbidden area, and it was very easy. If you want to improve your realm, you will directly break through as long as your strength reaches a certain level, and you will not be blocked by bottlenecks in a realm for a long time like Wuqi now.
After a moment, Julia's strength broke through again. A golden light suddenly flashed above her head. Julia's aura instantly improved hundreds of times, and her leap forwarded her realm from the peak of the first primordial realm to the first two primordial realm.
Unlike the method Wuqi is seeking, Julia's breakthrough does not rely on the essence and achievement, but the same breakthrough method as the monks on the Eastern Continent, making herself a binary powerhouse with the method of achieving vitality.
"What should I do? Why can't I break through for a long time? Am I not surprised..."
A month later, when he realized that his strength was still unable to improve, Wuqi began to question his confidence, and even when he talked to himself, he would become less calm and calm than before.
Because Wuqi couldn't help but think of Xiaodie, thinking of Xiaodie being tortured by the curse, and even if Xiaodie's curse power suddenly exploded, even if he could break through, he might not have time to save her.
As soon as I thought about this, my strange emotions suddenly became anxious from this day.
"Boss, you are so worried about your sister-in-law now, and your mentality towards you will become worse and worse. Why don't I go back and see your sister-in-law for you? If you continue like this, the opportunity for breakthrough may come later and later. Moreover, this may also affect your understanding of the duality powerhouse," Xiaobai felt unbearable when watching, and he reminded Wuqi with kindness.
Wuqi looked at Xiaobai and couldn't help feeling a little moved, but he didn't accept Xiaobai's kindness. He shook his head and said, "Forget it. Now I'll be more worried when I ask you to go back to see Xiaodie."
What if the news you come back then will be even worse? By then, my condition will definitely be worse than it is now. If that is the case, it would be better not to go back for the time being. Let's continue to stay here and live first."
"But, boss, it's not a solution for us to continue living a dull life like this! Although we are ordinary people now, we are not real ordinary people after all. If this opportunity for breakthrough comes, do you really have to live here for the rest of your life?" Xiaobai became a little impatient when he heard this and said.
Wuqi sighed and said helplessly: "Isn't there any way to do this? I also hope to break through as soon as possible, but..." As he said that, he couldn't help but laugh at himself, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a strange voice. Wuqi looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a man appearing in front of his stall. He was a beggar with disheveled hair. He was wearing countless holes and was emitting a stinky clothes. The other party was looking at him with a smile, asking the price of a painting in his hand, and saying, "Brother, how do you sell this sunset painting?"
"Let's go! Come on! This is not a place for people like you to stay! A stinky beggar wants to buy paintings, but you can't even eat enough, and you have to pretend to be literary and artistic, and you can't get used to the plane. Get out quickly!
Master Wuqi is the number one painter here, and his level is higher than that of Chinese painting masters. His paintings are not affordable to beggars like you, nor are they qualified to appreciate them. Get out!"
Wuqi heard this and was about to reply, when a gentle scholar who happened to pass by here and admired Wuqi's painting skills took the initiative to stand up, speak for Wuqi, and drive away the beggar.
As soon as this statement was spoken, the scholar immediately attracted many onlookers. These people dressed in different clothes, with different appearances and figures.
But their status is obviously not at the level of ordinary people, and they are all children of high-ranking officials who are almost the same as this scholar. They saw a beggar who dared to make trouble in front of Wuqi, a famous master in the city. Their eyes became unkind in an instant, and several young men who were arrogant and arrogant directly called on the thugs around them to drive away the beggars.
"Get out! A beggar dares to come to such a place! What a joke!"
"That's right! The beggar actually wanted to buy paintings. The world is really messy. Lao Zhao and Xiao Wang drove him away for Master Wuqi. There is such a person here. How can Master Wuqi do business today!"
"Get out! Damn beggar."
After a while, the gathering of people began to make excitement. As the young masters with prominent status continued to shout, more and more people watched.
At first, the only one who watched the excitement was the children of nobles who claimed to be very high in status. However, as time went by, soon, ordinary people from all walks of life appeared among the onlookers. In the end, even beggars appeared, which made the scene become chaotic in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, the voice became chaotic. The voices that drove away the beggars were still mainstream at first, but not long after, the crowd burst into support for the beggars, which were the heartfelt words of the people in the city and the voices of all the people walking together.
"What's wrong with the beggar? Who stipulates that beggars cannot buy paintings?"
"That's right! It's so great to have money! Beggars are also humans. Did His Majesty the King say that beggars are not allowed to buy paintings?"
"It's right! We beggars also have the right to appreciate art. It doesn't matter if you look down on us, but you can't force us not to buy paintings by force. Are you right?"
"right!"
"Well said! Don't think that you have a few bad money. It's amazing that my parents are nobles in the city. We beggars can also appreciate art. As long as we pay, even masters can do our business. Unless Master Wuqi himself doesn't want to, do you think it's right?"
"Yes! That's right!"
As soon as these words sounded, they immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the children of the high-ranking officials and nobles. Many people even had a large vein bulge on their foreheads. They did not give in to the ridicule and abuse of the masses, and their mouths twitched loudly refuted.
"You...you poor guys! How dare you go against us! Are you looking for death? Ah?"
"You are right! I think you poor guys are crazy, right? Don't you know who I am? I am the nephew of the city lord. Can you rebel?"
"In broad daylight, you dare to fight against us for a beggar. Are you all tired of living? Believe it or not, I will notify my uncle to arrest you and be charged with illegal gathering?"
It would be fine if I didn't say this sentence, but once I said it, the scene suddenly developed into an uncontrollable place. Originally, people were just a simple verbal dispute, but with the appearance of this sentence, a huge smell of gunpowder broke out in the crowd. Everyone was ready to beat their hands, their eyes were lit up, and they had the intention to take action, and the atmosphere became even more tense.
Wuqi saw that if he continued, it would definitely cause unnecessary struggles. He quickly persuaded everyone, said a lot of good words to both sides, and gave them more than a dozen works that had just been painted today, which calmed down the anger of both sides and regained the focus of the matter, from the struggle between the poor and the rich to the original origin, that is, the beggar who wanted to buy paintings.
"Hello, my name is Wuqi. Everyone calls me Master here. This is everyone's love name for me. Don't think that I am different from you. We are all the same ordinary people.
My business is not about status. As long as you want to buy a painting, if you have enough money, you can. The painting you want is a work with a very low level. The price is very cheap. Just ten taels of silver. Do you buy it?"
Then, Wuqi looked at the beggar in front of him and asked the other party friendly. His attitude was very peaceful and he had no intention of looking down on the beggar at all. This way of talking suddenly won the favor and recognition of many people.
When the beggar heard this, he even smiled on his face, nodded to Wuqi, and said, "Yes. I happen to have ten taels of silver. I will buy it."
Wuqi was shocked when he heard this and was immediately shocked. He really didn't expect that a beggar would spend so much money for a painting of ten taels of silver. You must know that this money is enough for a beggar to live for a month.
However, after thinking about it, Wuqi smiled. Anyone's pursuit must be respected. He is not qualified to judge whether the other party is right or wrong in doing so, but what is the reason?
As soon as he thought about this, Wuqi suddenly became interested in the reasons and asked casually: "Finish! That's the deal. By the way, can I ask you one more question?"
"What's the problem?" The beggar seemed very happy when he heard this, his eyes narrowed into a line. He was about to pay for it, but when he heard Wuqi ask, he was surprised and puzzled, and subconsciously asked.
