Ning Xia needs to know that in terms of importance, being with this man means that even her being closely followed by Tongjie is not worth mentioning. She will probably regret that she agreed to come as a "guest" so quickly.
Although Ningxia also noticed something was wrong from the unusually luxurious search team, there was no use regretting it now, after all, everyone was here. After sitting here for a long time, she felt that it was relatively safe, at least much safer than outside.
Besides, if this Taoist friend went to such great lengths to invite her here, he couldn't just run away without listening to what others said? Even if she wants to, it depends on whether the other party is willing to let her go... Ningxia has never looked down on people who can't tell the truth.
Anyway, there is nothing to be afraid of. How many times has she sneaked into other people's teams and caused trouble under their eyes? I can’t be afraid of so much anymore.
So Ningxia stayed very calmly on the relatively flat stone, sorting out the chaotic spiritual power one by one, trying to adjust herself to the best state.
Speaking of which, for some unknown reason recently, her cultivation speed suddenly slowed down.
Although her previous improvement in realm was quite sudden, and even had the slightest hint of success, it was always due to chance. Ningxia Jianjian's slightly impetuous cultivation also took a lot of effort.
But after that, her speed was no different from that of an ordinary monk. However, perhaps due to perfect foundation building and some adventures, her speed of absorbing spiritual power is comparable to that of the slightly less pure twin spiritual roots.
But recently, some small problems suddenly appeared in this link of absorbing spiritual power, which made Ningxia worried for a long time and still couldn't find out the reason.
Put it this way. If practicing breathing and breathing for one night before could make the spiritual power circulate in the meridians of the body for about one and a half days, now it cannot even be completed for one week.
What is this concept? Absorbing the spiritual power and letting it circulate in the meridians throughout her body for a week can probably support her to release a big move, but the amount is still a bit limited. After the big move, the spiritual power in the body will be exhausted.
But now Ningxia can't even complete a week in one night. The other benefits are temporarily invisible, but one impact is real - the time it takes for her to return to her original state has been extended for no reason. It's not a good thing for her in her current situation.
Ningxia has been struggling with this for several days, but has not found out the reason. At first, she suspected that it was a problem with the evil realm of Southern Xinjiang. After all, she lost her spiritual power as soon as she entered. It was all its fault... But then Ningxia changed her suspicions.
Later, she wondered if it might be a problem with the new "guests" in Dantian. Ning Xia always felt that every time the spiritual power passed by the fire, it seemed to be... particularly excited? There were several times when I got into a fight with another "guest" who was entrenched in Dantian because of this.
But Ningxia has not found any particularly significant evidence so far, so it can only suppress it and try to increase the time of practice to make up for the slowdown. Fortunately, this change was not completely without benefits. She felt that the speed of emitting spiritual power seemed to be a little faster.
In short, she was concentrating on her breath adjustment here, but the other person was not as "big-hearted" as he was, or in other words, his focus was not on breath adjustment.
Although he does not have any harmful intentions, is this fellow Taoist too lenient? Or are you confident?
Thinking that an ordinary foundation-building monk on the other side could escape from the space storm head and tail. After being held hostage by an unfamiliar stranger like him, she could calmly discuss it with him... Gu Huai felt that she was indeed not an ordinary monk.
It seems that he may not have as good a mentality as others.
Meeting such interesting people on the endless escape road adds a bit of vitality to his gloomy life.
When Ning Xia recovered from her breath adjustment, she happened to encounter such a scene. The person opposite was also staring at her, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
She found this fellow Taoist to be interesting too. It was he who brought her here, but after he arrived, he let her do what she did without any explanation, as if he just brought her here and that was it. Looking at her like this now, curious? Isn't that just for this?
No matter what the purpose was, since they generously provided a temporary shelter, if they really had any questions, she should cooperate.
So Ningxia generously met the other party's gaze. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that taking the initiative to talk to him might be a good way to start, so he said: "Gu Daoyou can provide such a shelter, which just solves a certain problem at the moment." Thank you very much for your difficult problem. I wonder if you have anything you want to ask, Daoist friend Gu, for inviting me here? If you can, I can tell you everything."
Gu Huai felt a little embarrassed when he asked about this. At first, he was indeed impulsive, but after that, he came up with an idea and planned to talk about it later and then ask about the other party when the atmosphere was a little better. I didn't expect that Ningxia would be so direct, guessing his purpose directly, and asking him so unabashedly.
Gu Huai, a member of the family who is used to having to go around three times when speaking, was a little uncomfortable with the other party's straightforwardness. But he is not a coy person. He has been forced into such a situation. There is no need to care about those fictitious things. The real benefits are more important.
"Since Fellow Daoist Lin is so cheerful, Gu shouldn't act in such a coquettish manner. Let's just say it straight."
"That day when we were trading some Jiangcao, our Taoist friend mentioned the situation of a certain person..." Before Ning Xia frowned, the other party continued: "Thanks to the half bottle of Gold Return Pill that you exchanged, I was able to recover to this point. I'd like to thank you for this." I need to say thank you to fellow Taoist." Gu Huai gave Ning Xia a half salute very neatly and without giving her a chance to react.
"...Fellow Taoist, there is no need to thank you too much, just take what you need..."
"This is what it should be. Regardless of whether you get what you need or not, I accept this sentiment. This is about someone's life. Please understand."
Does this mean "regardless of whether you recognize it or not, we still recognize it"? This overly grand ceremony made Ningxia feel at a loss for a moment.
She didn't expect the development direction of this "script", so tell us about it quickly!
"...But despite this, my body is quite seriously injured and damaged in all aspects. I wonder if you have any other healing elixirs. As long as there are elixirs and herbs that can strengthen the body and restore energy, I need them. I am willing to buy it at a high price." The other party bowed deeply again. This time the other party did not come out to stop him immediately.
Ningxia did not stop the other party. To be honest, she was not surprised at all by this person making such a request. After all, she had had a fleeting suspicion about it before. No matter how you look at it, she only has one or two interactions with the other party. If it's not revenge, it should be for this.
Not surprisingly.
