In a blink of an eye, the day came when the five of them agreed to go shopping in Helou. According to Qian Chao's wishes, everyone had to gather at Li Jian's place first.
Before Qian Chao finished preparing in the morning, Lu Pingchuan arrived at Qian Chao's residence early.
"Brother Lu, you came early!"
"Hey, it's okay to stay here. My master is in seclusion and doesn't care about me these days. I'll come out earlier."
"Then wait for me first, and we'll go to Brother Li's place later."
"Well, there's no rush."
Muxiufeng purple bamboo forest.
Li Jian knew that several friends were coming today, so she started preparations early.
There was a big stone outside his bamboo hut, which he chopped with his spiritual sword while practicing swordplay. Later, Li Jian felt that such a stone was ugly, so he wanted to chop it into pieces and throw it into the river nearby, but later he discovered that the stone was ugly. The outline of the large stone was round, and the size was about the same as a tabletop. He added another stroke of his sword to make the stone tabletop more level. Then he used his spiritual sword to trim the edge of the large stone, and then moved it to his bamboo hut. Besides, it is used as a stone table, which is quite good. The tabletop is smooth, and the texture inside the stone looks like misty mountains. It has a sense of wildness and elegance.
There are five stone benches around the stone table, which he also modified using five similar round stones from the river beach with a spiritual sword.
There is a clay stove next to the stone table, which is used for making tea.
When Qian Chao came that day, he said that he didn't need to prepare anything to eat. Brother Lu would bring it himself. After hearing this, Li Jian didn't prepare anything to eat. However, he wandered around the nearby mountains and forests early in the morning and picked some fresh and delicious fruits. , washed in the river, put on a plate and placed on the stone table.
Then Li Jian sat cross-legged and waited.
The first to arrive were Qian Chao and Lu Pingchuan.
"Brother Li," Qian Chao greeted as he jumped off the spirit sword, and then Lu Pingchuan landed on the ground.
"Brother Qian, your sword flies really fast. No, let's compete again later. I don't believe I can't catch you. Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a while. When I came here, Brother Qian said you are here It’s very beautiful. It’s really nice when I see it now. This is the first time I’ve seen this purple bamboo.”
When they arrived, Qian Chao competed with Lu Pingchuan to see who was faster. Although Lu Pingchuan tried his best to catch up, he still fell behind Qian Chao. The spiritual sword at Qian Chao's feet was specially made for traveling. It was a spiritual sword with three flying bird talismans and three wishful talismans. Although the sword was useless during a fight, it flew extremely quickly.
"Brother Lu, Brother Qian, please sit down quickly." Li Jian hurriedly greeted the two of them.
Lu Pingchuan sat on the stone bench, reached out and picked up a fruit and started chewing it.
"Do Sister Tang and Sister Yan know Brother Li's place? This Muxiufeng is also big enough. Like Houtu Temple, there are few people and both are empty."
"I know, Miss Tang has been here once. She must have come with Miss Yan this time, so there is no need to worry about them."
Li Jian said as he picked up the slightly boiling teapot from the clay stove and poured tea for the two of them.
"I wish I had a place like this. My master didn't want me to live in his cave because he thought I snored while sleeping. He built me a small house next to it and let me sleep there every day."
"That's not bad, Brother Lu. The caves of our seniors are all built in good places. Living there will be good for your practice."
The three of them were chatting, and two little girls came from the air. When they were near the top of the bamboo house, they heard a little girl laughing and said: "You two guys arrived early, I thought Sister Yan and I would arrive first. .”
It was Tang Ping who spoke. She also greeted Na Ruoyun early in the morning and then went out. She first went to Qixia Mountain to find Yanxuan, and then the two of them came all the way to Mu Xiufeng.
"Tang sister, Yan sister, haha, now we are together again."
"Brother Lu, Brother Li, Brother Qian." Yanxuan greeted several people after landing on the ground.
"Come on, come and sit down. Let's try the new spiritual tea I got first." Li Jian stood up and greeted the two girls.
After several people sat down around the stone table and tasted tea, Tang Ping ate a piece of fruit and looked at Qian Chao and said, "Tell me, it was you who suggested that we gather at Brother Li's place first. It’s easy to talk, now that everyone is here, you can say anything you want.”
After Tang Ping finished speaking, everyone looked at Qian Chao.
Qian Chao smiled and said, "Before we start talking, everyone should take out the spiritual swords they received from the master."
After hearing this, Lu Pingchuan said: "I don't have any. The physical training in Houtu Temple does not use spiritual weapons."
"Yeah" Qian Chao nodded, then looked at the other people.
Although Tang Ping, Li Jian and Yan Xuan didn't quite understand what Qian Chao meant, they each took out their spiritual swords and placed them on the stone table.
Qian Chao took them in his hand and looked at them one by one with the Blue Eyes Technique. Sure enough, they were all the most common three-talisman spirit swords, so he took out three spirit swords from the storage bag and distributed them to the three of them.
The three of them took out the sword given by Qian Chao and looked at it, but of course they couldn't see any clues.
"What's so good about your sword?" Tang Ping looked at it and asked, "How is it better than my original sword?"
"Come on," Qian Chao said, taking the sword from Tang Ping's hand, and then picked up Tang Ping's original three-talisman sword from the stone table. He didn't use the magic of object control, just held one in each hand. With the spirit sword, the two swords cut each other together with a strong force.
With a "ding" sound, one sword in Qian Chao's hand was intact, but the other sword had been cut off. The broken sword fell to the ground with a clang.
Qian Chao handed the sword to Tang Ping again and said, "Hey, do you see it?"
Tang Ping took the sword in her hand and looked at it carefully. Seeing that there was no scratch on the edge of the spiritual sword, she couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Did you refine this...?"
"Yes." Qian Chao nodded, then bent down to pick up the severed sword and placed it on the stone table.
"No wonder, last time you came to see me, I, Senior Sister Ruoyun, still didn't believe that you entered the inner gate with me. You said that in just a few months, you could wear the little sign of Jiuxuan Chengqi Hall. It's not easy. , Money Boy.”
Yanxuan and Li Jian both loved it when they saw the sharpness of the spiritual sword in their hands. However, Yanxuan felt a little distressed when he saw Qian Chao casually cutting off a spiritual sword. Even if the sword was weak, he shouldn't have done so. It's such a waste, it's a pity.
Li Jian is a sword lover and thinks the same thing.
Qian Chao saw it and put the broken sword together with the remaining two three-talisman swords and said: "Don't feel sorry, no matter whether they are broken or not, I will take these three swords back and refine them again, and they can It’s as sharp as the spiritual sword in your hands.”
Li Jian and Yan Xuan understood after hearing this. Li Jian said: "This weapon refining technique is really wonderful."
Qian Chao said nothing, but took out another sheathed short knife from his storage bag and handed it to Lu Pingchuan.
"Brother Lu, this is yours. Last time you said that your knife was not easy to use when peeling skin and bones. This one must be good for you."
"Oh?" Lu Pingchuan took it, and when he pulled it out, he felt the cold light radiating from the short knife, biting his skin.
"Be careful," Qian Chao said hurriedly, "this knife cannot change in size like the spirit sword, nor can it fly, but it is extremely sharp. It is just for you to deal with those wild animals."
"Hehe, not bad, not bad." Lu Pingchuan played with it for a while, and when he was about to put it away, Tang Ping thought the dagger was fun, so she reached out to take it in his hand to play with.
"Be careful, it's very sharp." Qian Chao said worriedly.
The last time Qian Chao went to see Lu Pingchuan, Lu Pingchuan accidentally complained to Qian Chao that his knife was very difficult to use when skinning and deboning wild animals. In fact, the knife he used was brought from Lujiazhuang. It has been used since Ming Gu, but now the knife is used to skin and bone low-level monsters, so it is naturally not easy to use. Qian Chao remembered it and made a short sword out of green copper after he returned home. Since there was no wishful talisman engraved on it, the most green copper was used, which was more than the three four-talisman spiritual swords put together. The four runes are a turtle rune and three running wolf runes, in order to make the short sword tough and sharp.
"What else?" Tang Ping asked again after returning the short knife to Lu Pingchuan.
"Of course there are, but these are what I tried to refine. I would like you two to take a look at them for me, eh."
With that said, Qian Chao took out two small wooden boxes from his storage bag and placed them on the stone table, pushing them towards Tang Ping and Yanxuan.
Tang Ping and Yanxuan were curious, so they opened a wooden box one by one, "hairpin!" Tang Ping said after seeing the objects inside, and then took out the contents. Yanxuan also took out the object from the wooden box, and it turned out to be a bright, small and exquisite hairpin.
The hairpins of the two hairpins were as long as needles. Qian Chao spent all his thoughts on the hairpin heads. The hairpin head of the hairpin in Yanxuan's hand was a small red bird with spread wings and was about to fly. That bird He looks forward with his head raised, his wings spread out, and his two slender legs come together and gradually become a slender hairpin in flight. The posture is extremely expressive.
As for the hairpin in Tang Ping's hand, the hairpin has clusters of flowers. The small flowers have all the stamens and petals. There are still flowers, leaves and branches in the flower clusters. The flower branches extend backward to form the long needle shape. hairpin.
The two girls really liked the shape of the hairpin in their hands. Tang Ping looked at it carefully for a while and said, "It's very beautiful. Why is your hairpin so single in color?"
Qian Chao said: "This is also what worries me. If you want to make colors, you need other materials, but those materials are not what I can get now. This hairpin is just for trial use."
Tang Ping curled her lips and said, "Why, do you want to be a silversmith?"
Qian Chao laughed but didn't answer.
Yanxuan looked at the hairpin in his hand and asked, "Brother Qian, do you have any other uses for this hairpin?"
Qian Chao nodded, took the hairpin from Tang Ping's hand, and activated it with the Object Control Technique. He saw the hairpin suddenly fly up, hovering back and forth over the five people, and the long needle of the hairpin shone with a cold light.
"Spiritual weapon?"
Tang Ping looked at Qian Chao with curiosity.
Qian Chao nodded. This hairpin was exactly the hairpin-shaped spiritual weapon he had figured out. He spotted a stone the size of a wine jar next to a few people, and saw a cold light from the hairpin. It sank into the stone with a "ding" sound. , only one hairpin was exposed, and with another move, the hairpin came out of the stone and flew back to Qian Chao's hand.
Tang Ping took the hairpin back from Qian Chao's hand and looked closely. There was no sign of wear at all. It was still an exquisite hairpin.
"Is this...the same method as the method of wielding the Spirit Sword?" Tang Ping asked.
"Yes, this hairpin and the spirit sword you got...well...are equivalent to the same level. My initial thought was that this hairpin is usually worn on the head. Who would pay attention and use it when in danger? Maybe there will be a miraculous effect in turning the situation around.”
It seems that this hairpin was made on a whim by Qian Chao. There was no wishful thinking talisman engraved on it. When it was refined, it was as big as it is now. However, it was engraved with two flying bird talismans, a turtle talisman and a running wolf talisman. The four-talisman spirit swords in their hands are indeed of the same grade. As for the style of the hairpin, Qian Chao made it based on the hairpin in his mother's jewelry box that he remembered.
"You guys always think of weird things. Well, don't tell me, there is still some truth. But if you make the style of this hairpin more ordinary, without these flowers and birds, no one will notice it. By the way, Didn't you want to sell this hairpin in Helou?"
"You are right. No one would care if the style were more ordinary. When I made them, I had the idea of earning some spiritual stones, but I gave up later. Now I am just a Qi Refiner. I’m just a junior on the upper level, there’s no need for people to pay attention to me, it’s better to keep a low profile to avoid getting into trouble.”
"What's the trouble? You can make it yourself and sell it. If others like it, buy it. If they don't like it, just walk away!"
Qian Chao smiled after hearing this and told everyone what happened to Dusha and Xie Zhi in his Jiuxuan Chengqi Hall a few days ago.
"I actually lost more than 20 spiritual stones. That guy named Du is so arrogant!" Tang Ping said after hearing this.
"Don't be afraid, Brother Qian, if he causes trouble for you, I will beat him up!" Lu Pingchuan said.
"We are still at the first level of Qi refining, but Senior Brother Du's cultivation has already passed the Xiaowu level. Even Senior Brother Cheng who taught me how to refine weapons is not willing to mess with us, and we don't need to! I am refining now All the spirit swords are given to the inner hall of the Chengqi Hall to be exchanged for materials. Although I make less money, it is still safe. Firstly, the man named Du will not come to trouble me. Secondly, why don’t I talk to the Chengqi Hall? Senior brothers and sisters are robbing business. If I want to sell my spiritual weapon in the future, it must be something that those senior brothers and sisters cannot refine."
After looking at his friends, Qian Chao continued.
"Jiu Xuan is different from your sect. Even if there are more people in Shuiyun Valley and Qixia Mountain, how can there be so many people? Jiu Xuan looks at the crowds and the crowds, and they are almost the same as Youming Valley. There are so many He is unreasonable and always wants to take advantage of others. As a junior fellow student, of course it is better for me to keep a low profile and be safe."
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
"Well," Tang Ping said, "In the final analysis, it's still about cultivation. If our cultivation is high, who would dare to cause trouble for us if we are unreasonable?"
"Brother Qian," Li Jian, who had been listening, frowned slightly, looked at Qian Chao with concern and said, "You spend all your time refining weapons, do you have enough time to practice?"
"I'm just about to tell you about this," Qian Chao said, "My major is "Yuan Chu Shu", and the weapon refining methods use the art of controlling objects and controlling fire. After I entered Jiuxuan, I discovered that "Yuan Chu Shu" "Initial Technique" and the "Object Control Technique" can be used together. I have invited everyone here today because I want Brother Li to have a clean place with no outsiders and easy conversation. I don't know if what I say will be helpful to any of you. When I refine the weapon There is "Yuan Chu Shu" that keeps replenishing my spiritual power, and the "Object Control Technique" consumes spiritual power to help me refine weapons, so as long as I am refining weapons, that is, I have been practicing. Everyone knows what my spiritual roots look like. With my spiritual roots If you don’t practice cultivation all the time, I’m afraid your cultivation will grow even more slowly.”
Tang Ping knew about Qian Chao's method, but he knew better that this method was Qian Chao's original creation, so if he wanted to, he should tell it himself, so he kept silent about it after knowing it, and the same was true for Yanxuan.
Li Jian nodded after hearing this. Since Qian Chao would not delay his practice, he felt relieved and kept this method in mind.
Lu Pingchuan didn't understand, but the number of cultivation paths of physical cultivation was different from that of the other four sects, and Kang Fu was always watching him, so there was no need to worry about him.
Only Yanxuan understood the beauty of Qian Chao's method after thinking about it for a moment. He couldn't help but said in surprise: "There is another method. Alas, Brother Qian is so smart that I couldn't think of it. I have also started to make elixirs now. , but at the last critical moment, the spiritual power failed, and I watched helplessly as a furnace of elixirs was refined, and what came out in the end was a dark mass, so I had to throw it away. I tried several times, but only once. It looks like it's going to work, but in the end it still falls short, which is nerve-wracking. Brother Qian's method, I'm going to study it carefully when I get back. If it works, it will be of great help to my alchemy."
When we got together today, Yanxuan had long been envious when he saw Qian Chao taking out the spiritual weapons he had refined one by one to everyone. She had started refining elixirs under the guidance of Senior Sister Na Min many days ago. However, one of the reasons was that she did not have enough control over the heat of refining elixirs, and the other was that the process of refining elixirs was long and boring. Each refining process took several hours, even if she was very qualified. In the end, her spiritual power was gradually drying up, and her spiritual grass was being wasted in front of her eyes, which made her feel heartbroken. It would be great if she could bring a few pills to share with everyone today. Therefore, when she heard the method mentioned by Qian Chao, she was very pleasantly surprised and decided to give it a try when she returned to Qixia Mountain.
But when he said this, Yanxuan realized something again, and said to Qian Chao: "Don't worry, brother Qian, the law will not spread to the six ears."
In fact, Qian Chao himself felt that this method might only be somewhat helpful to Sister Yan's alchemy. After all, some principles of alchemy and weapon refining were the same.
"By the way, Sister Yan, some of the items I want to refine later have higher and higher requirements for fire control. Qixia Mountain is a master of fire control. Can Sister Yan tell me about this fire control?" How to practice to make progress faster."
"Well, speaking of which, my fire control skills are actually average, but I can tell you everything my senior sister Min told me, which should be of some help to you."
With that said, Yanxuan explained to Qian Chao one by one the key points of the fire control technique taught by Senior Sister Min on weekdays, and finally took out a book and handed it to Qian Chao.
"Although this book "The Art of Fire" is specifically for alchemy, the subtleties of fire control are well documented in the book. Take it and take a look, it should be helpful."
After taking the book, Qian Chao said, "Thank you, Sister Yan. I will return it to you after I finish reading it."
"No, I'll just go back and get a copy from the library."
After putting the book away, Qian Chao said to several people: "I have been refining swords and always want to refine a better spiritual sword than this."
When he said this, Qian Chao pointed to the spirit sword given to the three of them.
"It's a pity that I always fail, but I always have a feeling recently. First, it seems that this better spiritual sword will be refined soon. Second, it seems that as long as I refine that sword, my cultivation will be able to take a step forward. , this...is it a sign of a breakthrough?"
When Qian Chao said this, everyone started to think about it.
Tang Ping was the first to say: "I seem to feel the same way. It's like wearing a few extra leather robes on my body, and I always want to throw them off to feel lighter."
Li Jian had the same feeling recently. When he was practicing recently, he always felt as if he encountered a high wall while walking. He was looking for a door to pass through on that wall. As long as he broke through this wall, his cultivation would be greatly improved. It seems like we can go one step further.
After listening to Qian Chao's words, Li Jian nodded and said, "Yes, so do I."
After hearing this, Yanxuan thought about his situation carefully, and finally said: "I don't know if it's right, but I always feel that as long as I can refine a pot of good quality pills, something will happen. This does it count?"
Lu Pingchuan said: "I didn't feel anything. Apart from practicing according to my master's instructions every day, I just eat and sleep. Well, what does that feel like?"
"Brother Lu, you have the best qualifications among us, and it is also the easiest for you to break through in cultivation. There is no bottleneck. You may have reached the second level of Qi Refining when you woke up, and you don't even know it. Unlike us, when we break through, at least it feels like we have finally squeezed out from the crowd."
This was said by Tang Ping. Although it was half-joking, it was not unreasonable. With Lu Pingchuan's qualifications, it is really possible for someone with Lu Pingchuan's qualifications to achieve a breakthrough at a low level without even realizing it.
"I feel like it's just a recent thing, no more than a month at most." Li Jian said. Li Jian liked it when several friends discussed their experiences in cultivation together. Only then did he understand why Qian Chao first Everyone gathered here, and when Qian Chao finished speaking, he also told everyone how he practiced cultivation. Everyone was surprised when they heard that Li Jian used a swarm of wild bees to help him practice his sword. Especially when they heard about the bee thief bird, Yanxuan couldn't help but said, "There is such a bird, and it is too vengeful." .”
However, Lu Pingchuan was obviously not thinking about the bird. After hearing this, he said, "Brother Li, you actually have a wild beehive here. Hey, that's a good thing. Where is it?"
Li Jian naturally knew what Lu Pingchuan was thinking. He smiled and took out a lot of bamboo tubes from the storage bag and placed them on the stone table. As soon as the bamboo tubes were taken out, everyone immediately smelled a sweet smell.
"Brother Lu, we have already prepared it, eh." Li Jian said with a smile.
The bamboo tubes on the stone table were divided among everyone, two for each person. Lu Pingchuan's two bamboo tubes were extra-large. When he opened the lids on the bamboo tubes, the sweet aroma overflowed, and they were filled with sticky amber wild food. Honey.
Lu Pingchuan immediately became happy when he saw it. He dipped a finger into the honey and put it into his mouth, then exclaimed that it was delicious.
"Oh, this little glutton becomes disloyal as soon as he smells delicious food." Tang Ping frowned and took Xiao Bai out of the spirit animal bag, scraped Xiao Bai's nose, and cursed. Greedy Ghost then poured out the remaining tea in his teacup, poured some from the bamboo tube, dipped some in and tasted it, and then let Xiaobai lick it.
Yanxuan also dipped his finger in his mouth and tasted it. He seemed slightly disappointed and said: "When we prepare elixirs in Qixia Mountain, some of the medicines require honey. We have beekeepers there to produce honey." In this place, the bee is not an ordinary bee, it can be regarded as a low-level spiritual insect. Brother Li’s honey is still a little short of being used as medicine, but it is really delicious for eating."
Li Jian listened and laughed and said: "The wild bees in my bamboo forest seem to be producing honey from ordinary wild bees, but that swarm has a special kind of big guy that guards the swarm. Not counting its wings, it is about the same size as an egg." , dark and very scary. These days, I have almost driven away their natural enemies, and now there are more and more wild bee nests."
After saying this, Li Jian remembered something and took out a small bag from his body and gave it to Lu Pingchuan, "Brother Lu, take this. There are a few guys in it who often come to harm the bee swarm and can't be driven away. I have no choice but to It's a heavy move, but I don't have your craftsmanship, so I have to keep it for now and give it to you now."
Lu Pingchuan took it over and saw that there were four or five dead red bears in the storage bag. He couldn't help but feel happy and said that he would give them to everyone to eat when they were ready.
There is no risk of meat spoilage in the wild animals placed in the storage bag, and there is no need to worry that the bear meat will deteriorate if stored for a long time.
Tang Ping was curious, so she took the small bag and looked at it. When she saw that there were many dead bears, she asked Li Jian, "Brother Li, are there many bears near you?"
Yanxuan originally wanted to take a look, but gave up the idea when he heard there was a dead bear inside.
"There are still a lot of them in this mountain forest, but not many near my bamboo forest."
At this time, Lu Pingchuan also remembered something, and took out a storage bag from his body and gave it to Qian Chao.
"I don't know what can be used and what can't be used here. You can choose it yourself. Anyway, it's all in there."
Qian Chao was very surprised when he saw that the storage bag was full of skins that had been peeled off one after another. He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother Lu, where did you get all these skins?" Is it possible that you have taught you to kill all the wild beasts in the Houtu Temple Mountain?"
"No, these are all hunted by outsiders..."
Before she finished speaking, Tang Ping asked in surprise: "Brother Lu, are you able to leave the sect?"
"No, every time I go out, my master must take me with him. My master taught me for a while, and then he wanted to see how I was doing, so he took me out to find some wild animals. He watched and asked me to do it. Hehe, I work very hard to be able to go out often! But Master strictly ordered me not to go out alone, but, actually, I don’t think it’s a big deal.”
After hearing this, Tang Ping understood, and couldn't help but envy: "Oh, it's Senior Kang after all. His methods of teaching his disciples are so unique."
After hearing this, Li Jian also appreciated this method, nodded and said: "Well, this method is consistent with the theory of movement and stillness in sword cultivation, not bad."
Qian Chao stared at the various leathers in the bag, thinking that there were some leather armors that were not difficult to refine. The trouble was that the leather had to be soaked in potion for a period of time before being processed, and the potion also needed to be used. Several kinds of spiritual herbs were prepared, but after looking at Yanxuan sitting opposite, he felt that those kinds of spiritual herbs should not be difficult.
So he took out a pen and paper from his storage bag, and wrote the names of several spiritual herbs on it, and then said to Yanxuan: "Sister Yan, I want to use the leather that Brother Lu gave me to try practicing I have made some armors, but I lack some spiritual herbs to make potions. I don’t know if I can get these spiritual herbs, but one plant of each will be fine.”
Yanxuan took the piece of paper and looked at it. It was not a rare spiritual herb, it was something commonly seen. Although he didn't have it with him, he estimated that he would be able to get it for Qian Chao in a few days, so he said, "No problem. I can give it to you in a few days.”
Later, a few people chatted for a while, and then went to Li Jian's bamboo forest to take a look at the mountain wall where wild bees built their nests. Sure enough, they saw the giant black bees as big as eggs that Li Jian had mentioned. Yanxuan was frightened to death. Rong turned pale, Tang Ping felt extremely irritated, and Lu Pingchuan drooled over the bright yellow hives. However, since the honey had been eaten in his mouth, he did not touch the hive again. Several people were anxious when the bees chased them out. They were so anxious that they ran away from the bamboo forest. After they came out, they looked at each other's embarrassment and laughed.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Lu Pingchuan greeted everyone and said that he had brought a lot of delicious food, and they returned to the stone table and sat down.
Lu Pingchuan had already made preparations. He took out one by one from his storage bag, grilled and cooked, and the aroma of meat overflowed for a while, making people mouth-watering.
Tang Ping also took out a few jars of good wine. Although Tang Bonian did not take her to practice in person, Old Man Tang taught his granddaughter the art of wine making. At Fairy Guhuo's place, Tang Ping also taught her the art of wine making. There is a small building of its own dedicated to brewing wine.
At noon, several people ate deliciously and drank happily.
After eating, I cleaned up, drank another cup of tea, and then got up and headed to the Crane Tower.
