The next morning after returning to the sect, Qian Chao woke up early. A night's rest made the fatigue of the past few days disappear. He got up energetically, took care of himself and rushed to Chengqitang. This time he went out. A lot has been harvested, and a lot of ores have been obtained outside, and they are of good quality. Naturally, they need to be refined first.
In the Chengqi Hall, Qian Chao greeted several familiar senior brothers, then found a fire eye and started to get busy.
While he was busy, at some point a woman walked up to Qian Chao and said, "Junior brother Qian, it's really hard to find you. I've been to the Chengqi Hall several times and they all said you were out. It's a coincidence that I finally met you today." , let’s go, I have something to ask of you.”
Qian Chao looked up after hearing this, and suddenly he was filled with pain. Standing in front of him was the untouchable Senior Sister Luo who had asked him to refine the spirit lock pile.
"Let's go! What are you waiting for?" Seeing Qian Chao being motionless, Senior Sister Luo glared, "Do you still want me to invite you?"
"Yes, yes, Senior Sister Luo, wait a moment, we will leave right away."
Qian Chao quickly collected all the things he had refined and those that had not yet been refined, and then obediently followed Senior Sister Luo. All the disciples who were refining the weapons in the Chengqi Hall did not dare to show their anger until Senior Sister Luo and Qian Chao walked through the small door and into the courtyard next door, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.
In the courtyard next door, Cheng Qiantang was talking to someone. When he saw Senior Sister Luo walking in, he stood up in a panic. Qian Chao noticed that the person who was talking to Senior Brother Cheng was Senior Brother Mo Wen whom he had met before.
Senior Sister Luo frowned, turned around and said to Qian Chao: "This is not the place to talk after all. Let's go to your residence. What I want to find you is very important and I can't let others hear it."
"yes."
…
Houtu Temple is the cave of Senior Kangfu.
Lu Pingchuan randomly selected an open space and began to pack up the monster beasts he brought back from outside the sect yesterday. One by one, he carefully peeled off the leather of these monster beasts for future tanning. There are other uses on these monster beasts. He also carefully removed some of the materials, which were all for Qian Chao. Of course, if he could eat the meat of these monster beasts, he would not let it go. If you find demon pills on these monster beasts while you are busy, carefully place them on a plate on the table next to you. When they are almost done, wash the demon pills with water and go back to see Tang Ping. The girl gave them all to her. Anyway, among the others, only the Tang girl could use these things.
Lu Pingchuan had been busy since he went to bed early in the morning. When Kang Fu walked out of his cave, Lu Pingchuan was still busy. This time there were too many monsters picked up from outside.
If it had been any other senior Jiedan, they would definitely not be allowed to leave such a bloody mess in front of the cave door. However, Kang Fu didn't care. He just cleaned it up later. Not only did he not care, he actually walked around with great interest. Go to the disciple and see him busy.
Just by looking at the monsters brought back by his apprentice, he would probably know what he would gain outside this time. This was Senior Kang Fu's original plan.
However, after taking a few glances at Lu Pingchuan, Kang Fu's eyes began to widen. He saw Lu Pingchuan tapping the head of a red-striped python as thick as a thigh with his short knife. Still a little unsure, he knocked a few more times, then stabbed the dead python in the eye with a knife. The tip of the knife came out from the other eye. He pressed the big python's head with his other hand and pressed harder... With a "pop" sound, the big python's head was pried open, and a few fingers groped in the big python's head. "Hey, there it is!" As he said that, Lu Pingchuan saw two fingers from the big python's head. He took out an object from his brain, then raised his hand and threw the object into a plate on the case with a "clang" sound.
There are already more than a dozen blood-stained balls in the plate. Are these all demon elixirs?
Kang Fu came to the plate and took a closer look. Sure enough, the plate was filled with demon elixirs. He was afraid that he might be mistaken, so he picked up the plate and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, they were all demon elixirs!
"Boy, are these demon pills found on the demon beasts you went out to hunt this time?"
"Not entirely," Lu Pingchuan replied. He raised the short knife in his hand and nailed the python's head to the wooden case with a "dong" sound. Then he grabbed the python skin just cut behind the python's head. With both hands, he pulled off the entire python skin with a "squeak" sound. However, the python was too long, so he pulled back while pulling. Kang Fu saw that the python's head was almost torn apart by him, so he stretched out his hand to hold it down.
"Master, the skins of other monster beasts can be used to refine armor. What use can this big snake skin have if it is so thin?" Lu Pingchuan asked as he rolled back the peeled snake skin.
"This snake skin may not be considered thin, but it is as tough as the leather of other monster beasts. It can also be used to refine armor. Well, Jiu Xuan seems to have many other uses for this snake skin. That's what I will do. It’s not very clear. But, boy, this big snake is a red miasma snake, a proper lower-level mid-grade snake, and this plate of demon pills. Could it be that these are all you went out to hunt this time?”
"Hey, of course we weren't the ones hunting. Master, we went out this time and it opened our eyes. Just yesterday, we were all coming back. We saw two huge ones outside. Hey, they were about the same size as a mountain. Guy, Sister Tang said it was... an earth spirit beast, dear, with that size, a village the size of our Lujiazhuang can cover at least two of them on that guy's back."
After listening to his apprentice's words, Kang Fu knew what he had seen outside, and he also roughly knew how this plate of demon pills came from.
"Then, you little guys followed those two guys all the way?"
"Well, of course we have to follow. First of all, we came to watch the excitement. My God, there were so many monsters gathered on the ground at that time. I couldn't see them all. There were some flying in the sky. You can't usually see them when you go out. The scene. Secondly, it’s just a bargain. Hey, this is what Sister Tang said. She said that following those two big guys must be beneficial. Sure enough, we didn’t kill these monsters. Those guys are crazy. They bit each other and there were too many people who died there, but many of them were bitten badly. We later picked up similar ones before bringing them back. Later, the two big guys arrived at a place called Guanxikou. Brother Qian and Sister Tang said it would be dangerous to go any further, so they stopped following, and then we came back."
After listening to this, Kang Fu said: "Well, after all, some of you still know how to measure things. Going further there is indeed not something you can go to now."
Speaking of this, Senior Kang suddenly felt something in his heart. The earth spirit beast, the monster beast mentioned by his apprentice, aroused his thoughts. He pondered silently for a while without saying a word, then turned around and returned to his cave. within.
"Hey, Master, this..." Lu Pingchuan didn't know what he was thinking of and wanted to ask his master for advice. Halfway through, he realized that his master was missing. "Hey, when did he leave?" He ignored it and continued to work.
Inside the cave, Kang Fu walked all the way inside and entered a secret room of his own. There were all large and small jars and wine jars stored here, as well as a few cold jade stones for storing wine. Naturally, here It was where Kang Fu hid his wine, but he didn't stop here. He walked directly to the deepest part of the secret room. He put his hands on a wall and pushed hard. With a heavy "crush" sound, the wall on the other side The wall slowly receded, and soon a small door blocked by the wall appeared. That was the real location of Kang Fu's treasure.
Enter through the small door. The inside is not big, and can't even accommodate a bed. Rows of stone niches have been cut out on the walls on three sides, filled with various small bottles.
This senior Kang probably didn't know much about literacy. There was no label or name on the small bottle. If he couldn't remember the contents of the bottle, he would pull out the stopper and smell it gently. He would not open any of them and smell them. , he shook his head, put the stopper back in, and searched for them one by one. Finally, he took out a small white porcelain bottle.
The contents inside were bloody and pungent, and they were still the same as when they were first collected. There was no change at all. Smelling the smell, Senior Kang was in a trance, as if he had returned to the time after his desperate fight a long time ago. ...it’s really dangerous!
Alas, what are you thinking about these things? It happened when. He shook his head and shook off those old things. Kang Fu put the small white porcelain bottle in his arms and returned to the secret room where the wine was stored.
"Well, which jar should I use?" He looked carefully among the many wine jars in the secret room, "This jar? No, the vintage is still a bit off. This jar? Alas, the wine is too strong. , I’m afraid that boy can’t bear it! What about this? Forget it, this jar is hard to come by, I’d better keep it for myself! Well, this jar is almost enough, I think the boy can bear it after drinking it.”
Lu Pingchuan had just peeled off a whole piece of monster leather outside the cave, and when he was about to continue, Kang Fu walked out of the cave again and said to him: "Don't be busy yet, clean up the place first, and then see you inside." I have something to tell you." After saying this, Kang Fu returned to the cave.
"Oh." Seeing the master looking for him, Lu Pingchuan agreed. After tidying up a little, he washed his hands with water and walked into the master's cave.
"Master, what do you want from me?"
"Well, sit down first," Kang Fu said, still looking at his apprentice, trying to figure out whether this boy could withstand his method, "Yesterday you saw the earth spirit beast, let's talk about it. What do you think of that earth spirit beast?"
"They're big, and we can't afford to offend them at all. We can only watch them go away."
"Well, let me ask you, have you ever thought about those outside the sect who are hunted by you, we call them monsters, and those inside the sect who are raised by the monks are called spiritual beasts, but why did you do it yesterday? What about the two big guys we met outside the sect, who are called earth spirit beasts? First, they are also called spirit beasts outside the sect. Secondly, they are just spirit beasts, with another added in front. The word '地', why is this?"
"Uh... Master, I don't know about this." Lu Pingchuan scratched his scalp and said.
"Well, speaking of it, Master doesn't know much about these spirit beasts, but he has more experience than you. As long as he sees it, he can probably recognize it. There is a reason why that kind of earth spirit beast got this name. Yes, hum, the earth spirit beast is actually just a type of earth spirit beast. According to what you said, what you saw yesterday was an earth spirit beast with mixed and impure blood. If the blood was purer, where would it be? It allows you to see it, and it won’t cause so many monsters to follow and chase it.”
"Earth Spirit Beast? Master, what is an Earth Spirit Beast?"
"I was just about to talk to you. Well, how should I put it? Look at us monks. Everyone has spiritual roots. Although spiritual roots are different, they are probably the five types of metal, wood, water, fire and earth. That’s it, right?”
"Yep."
"Since that person has spiritual roots and can practice cultivation, what about those monsters outside the sect? Since they can practice cultivation, do they also have spiritual roots?"
"Eh? Master, you are right to say that. People can't practice without spiritual roots, but those monsters are all very powerful, so naturally those monsters should also have spiritual roots. Well... Master , does that mean that the earth spirit beast means that the spiritual root of the monster beast is the earth spirit root?"
"Well, I don't know about this master. Now we in the spiritual world have no idea what our own spiritual roots are, let alone those beasts. If you have time, ask that girl Tang, they Those from the Yuling Sect must know more than me."
"oh."
"But regardless of what they say about these monster beasts, according to our physical training, since they can be called earth spirit beasts, it means that this kind of monster beast is at least equivalent to the qualifications of a monk with good earth spirit roots. Even Liangdu cannot be called an earth spirit beast, can you understand this?"
"Yeah, I understand."
"That's good. Since you can understand this, today my teacher will teach you a way to kill the enemy and protect yourself at a critical moment. However, this method has advantages and disadvantages, and it cannot be used often. Don't use it easily until the moment of life or death. You must remember this carefully when using it, otherwise it will cause endless harm to you if you use it casually."
"Oh! I remember, Master, what is the method?"
"This method is called the Liquor Soul Method. But before I tell you about the Liquor Soul Method, I also want to tell you some of the past history of our body cultivation. My master and your master were You also told me this when you taught me this method. It can be regarded as an inheritance of our body cultivation. After listening to it, you can also roughly know how our body cultivation technique comes from."
Lu Pingchuan nodded after hearing this. In the past, his master taught him only a few words and then sent him to practice. Today, his master not only talked a lot but also spoke solemnly, so he calmed down and listened carefully.
