Early in the morning on September 17th, Qian Jing carried a bamboo box basket containing five gifts of "lotus seeds, red beans, dates, longan, and dried lean meat strips". She followed Brother Lezi to the back mountain where she had never set foot. The bear-like mountain badger was lying on the cave steps above.
Qian Jing imitated his senior brother's greetings to the mountain badger, climbed up the stairs, and walked into the cave with the stone door open.
The furnishings in the stone hall were simple. I put down the basket and worked with my senior brother to sweep and wipe the already clean floor, tables and chairs. After finishing their work, the two quietly stood by the wall and waited for the master in the secret room to come out.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, I heard the chatter and laughter of the temple owner and the mountain chief coming from the bottom of the steps.
Lezi hurriedly led his junior sister to the door to greet him.
Guanzhu Zhang walked into the door, smiled at the two of them and returned the favor with his hands, saying: "Congratulations to Protector Tu for his unique vision and discerning eye for gaining such a good disciple! Congratulations! Lezi, as a senior brother, you will have to take care of my little junior sister in the future. , don’t let her be wronged.”
Lezi smiled and said: "That's what it should be."
The mountain chief changed his usual dignified and rigid attitude, looked at Qian Jing who couldn't let go, and said with a smile: "Come to think of it, you call me senior brother just like Lezi. Of course, you still have to call me 'mountain chief' in front of outsiders."
He already knew who the little girl in front of him was, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken like this.
The door of the secret room opened, and Tu Kun, still wearing the same shabby clothes, came out and greeted the temple owner and the mountain chief, and said: "Lezi, make tea and entertain the guests."
"Yes, Master, please take a seat. Master of the Temple, Chief of the Mountain, please take a seat!"
Lezi took the little girl who was standing there stupidly after saluting to one side and taught her in a low voice how to add charcoal to start a fire, clean the tea set, how much Ling tea leaves and Ling spring water to put in, etc. The master is not very particular, and they have to be careful as apprentices.
Not long after, the tea was ready and the room was filled with the aroma of tea.
Tu Kun, who was chatting with the temple master and the mountain leader, greeted: "There is a priority for entry. Lezi will serve tea first. I have been inspecting you for several years. Today, I will accept you as my direct disciple, so that you will not be biased in your heart."
He was so happy that he kept saying "I don't dare, I don't have any disciples", and reached out to touch his body.
He didn't expect his master to make such a move. He couldn't find a suitable apprenticeship gift on him, only a few banknotes, which obviously couldn't be taken out.
Zhang Wenfeng, who was watching the ceremony, stood up and handed Lezi a piece of warm earthy topaz, which relieved Lezi's embarrassment.
The master doesn't pay attention to these things, he just does whatever he wants. He has been running around in the world for several years, and has learned the old rules from his father for several years. He only has one apprenticeship in his life, how can he treat it lightly?
Perform the ceremony of worshiping the master in a proper manner, kneel down to worship the master, and hold tea to pay respect to the master.
Then came Qian Jing's apprenticeship, and the same process went through.
Tu Kun took a sip of tea, put down the tea cup, took out a storage bag, and gave it to Lezi as a gift for his direct disciple. He also took out a small bottle, handed it to Qian Jing, and said, "Go to the futon by the wall to meditate and adjust your breath. Be calm and don't worry about our conversation here. I'll see how you calm down."
Qian Jing put the bottle of unknown purpose into his sleeve pocket, bowed and walked to the wall to sit cross-legged. The master wanted to test her calmness in public. How could she dare to take it lightly.
Zhang Wenfeng drank two cups of tea and saw that Qian Jing had fallen into silence. He gave the mountain chief a look, and the two stood up to say goodbye.
The mountain leader had a lot of chores to do, so he handed over his hands and left in a hurry after walking down the steps.
Zhang Wenfeng was playing with a golden stream of light in his hand. It was the newly refined Void Flying Sword that Tu Kun helped him refine a few days ago. It was indeed spiritually superior to the previous two flying swords. He controlled the sword and circled it around him, walking towards the west. go.
At noon, he smiled when he heard that Qian Jing had broken through the realm and advanced to Huaqi.
I have worshiped such a powerful master, personally helped cleanse the marrow and cut down the sutras, and with the blessing of the Drunken Heart Pill, is it so weird that I can't break the threshold to become a monk?
At noon on the second day, while Zhang Wenfeng and Hu Qiang'er were busy in the Lingzhi field, they suddenly received a message from Lu Chan'er, saying that her sister Lu Xiner had successfully advanced to the third level.
For the flowers and plants in the Caomuling lineage, Lu Xin'er's promotion is of great significance. It means that they have a certain ability to protect themselves and are no longer afraid of natural enemies of the same level. After promotion, Lu Xin'er can display the flowers and plants. The innate secret technique has the ability to help subsequent sisters break through bottlenecks.
If there is one, there will be two. Everything is difficult at the beginning.
Zhang Wenfeng immediately sent Hu Qiang'er to carry gifts and go with the mountain badger to send congratulations.
Later, after Lu Xin'er stabilized her cultivation and came out of seclusion, he and the mountain chief would go there again. Allies must also communicate frequently and carefully maintain and take care of their relationships.
After Hu Qiang'er left, Zhang Wenfeng nourished Zhumu and the nearby Lingcha trees with green mist, went down the mountain to the stream to wash his hands, and pulled out the bronze sword from the green scabbard at his waist.
He asked his weapon-making disciple Shen Shan to help him prepare a scabbard. He simply polished the bronze sword hilt and made an indentation suitable for the grip along the imperfections. The sword body retained its jagged shape without any unnecessary repairs. .
With Chen Shan's current level, it can't be repaired, so don't embarrass that scratching boy.
A golden sword light quietly appeared around him, surrounding him endlessly and shining brightly. He held the sword and stepped forward, feeling the sword's intention in the afternoon when the autumn wind suddenly picked up.
Since he mastered the "Yihe" sword realm, he rarely wields his sword and performs any specific sword skills.
What he is thinking about is the conversion between the destruction of the sword's will and the method of creation. At this stage, he spends more time studying the "destruction of the sword's will".
Destruction represents destruction and destruction, and Shengfa represents vitality and construction.
Many times, destruction is often easier than construction, and there are fewer considerations and concerns. He chooses to start with destruction, which is relatively easy, and then consider regeneration later.
On the morning of the 20th, Zhang Wenfeng, Tu Kun and Tianshi Zhu Xun appeared at the southwest border of Modao County. They followed Zhu Xun's two followers and stayed in Modao County. The three of them walked to a small river ten miles away.
Yang Shuilan walked out of the water silently, her figure as transparent and illusory as water waves.
It transformed into a three-foot-long green-scaled red-tailed carp and circled playfully on the river surface, blowing bubbles, which was to say hello to Guanzhu Zhang.
"The Great Luo of All Worlds"
The two sides faced each other across the river, hundreds of feet apart.
A mist of water vapor rises, slowly covering this area, blocking out prying eyes from the outside world.
The carp are left swimming outside to look for the wind.
After exchanging polite words, Yang Shuilan's face was covered with mist, and her expression could not be seen. She said straight to the point: "I wonder if Zhu Tianshi wants to meet me, what cooperation are they talking about? I can come to the appointment, I believe Zhu Tianshi can see my sincerity .”
Zhu Xun Chuanyin smiled and said: "Zhu felt the sincerity of Fellow Daoist Yang, so I won't beat around the bush. Our people discovered a spar mine in the Tsundering Mountains and hope to cooperate with Fellow Daoist Yang. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Yang is interested in discussing this matter in depth." talk?"
As soon as these words came out, the three people present were surprised at the same time.
What a big deal!
Yang Shuilan was a little annoyed and smiled bitterly. She should carefully search the hills near the site. Now that the conversation has begun, the benefits are too great. She can't even think about not cooperating, unless she wants to give up the Willow River site that she has been running for many years. , retreat and hide deep in the wild, otherwise Da'an Chao will attack with all its strength.
Besides, she couldn't refuse the bait thrown by the other party.
An unknown spar mine was worthy of her cooperation with Da'an Chao for their own benefit.
Cultivation does not mean not paying attention to worldly affairs every day. You can just hide and meditate and be convinced.
Going further back, especially the fifth level, if you want to advance to the sixth level, you don't know how many rare resources and elixirs you have to consume. Without a deep knowledge, it is not that easy to be a wild cultivator. She has seen the scenery halfway up the mountain, and she must prepare for herself and Xiaoni'er in advance. Plan ahead.
Make money, not shabby.

(I’ll add another update tomorrow. I’ll leave the words behind and put some pressure on them. I’m going to stay up late)
