The old man with poisonous hands stood in front of Li Shuidao, feeling a little dazed.
He never expected that the person who rescued him would be Li Shuidao.
Moreover, his cultivation level has actually reached the third level.
Naxu Realm!
He is also the son-in-law of the Lan family.
With this identity and cultivation, if he joins the Law Enforcement Hall, he will be the "Golden Hook Guard", the highest-ranking elder in the Law Enforcement Hall.
It was just a matter of words for him to save himself.
The old man with poisonous hands took a deep breath and hurriedly saluted and paid homage: "Your Majesty is so kind and virtuous, and I will never forget it! If it hadn't been for Your Majesty's rescue, I would have died in that desperate situation. This younger generation will remember this life-saving grace." mind!"
Li Shuidao smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome, you should get up first."
The old man with poisonous hands stood up and stood aside.
"Don't stand, sit down and talk." Li Shuidao pointed to the wooden stool and said.
"How dare I do this in front of your Majesty?"
"Sit down, sit down."
"Then junior, it's better to be respectful than to obey."
After Poison Hand sat down, Li Shuidao nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on the weapon refining materials in the room.
"These weapon refining materials..." Li Shuidao looked at the treasures, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What do you plan to use them for?"
The old man with poisonous hands was shocked. He understood that Li Shuidao was testing him. He replied with a smile on his face: "If you want to return to your Majesty, the villain family needs to help them exchange it."
"Oh..." Although Li Shuidao knew he was lying, he didn't intend to expose it. He continued to ask: "What materials are still missing?"
"This..." The old man with poisonous hands hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "We still need the mirror stone, the dim light jadeite, the purple mist crystal, and the broken light stone."
"The sect doesn't have any treasures. As long as you have merit points, you can naturally get them." Li Shuidao said with a smile.
The old man with poisonous hands smiled bitterly and shook his head: "These are extremely precious and rare treasures, even the sect does not have them."
"Are you sure it's true?" Li Shuidao asked with a twinkle in his eye.
"This..." The old man with poisonous hands thought for a moment and smiled bitterly: "The sect probably has it, but I have a low status and the people in the Hall of Merits look down on me, so they just lied to me and said I didn't have it."
Li Shuidao smiled and said, "How about I help you and ask."
A flash of joy flashed in the eyes of the old man with poisonous hands. He was well aware of Li Shuidao's status in the sect. He excitedly thanked me repeatedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty. If this can be accomplished, I will be grateful."
"It doesn't matter." Li Shuidao chuckled and waved his hand, "It's just that the merit points for exchanging treasures..."
"Of course it's me." The poisonous old man said without hesitation.
During this trip to the Immortal Path Secret Realm, they obtained more than a dozen Pangu Beards. Each Pangu Beard had 800,000 merits. Now they have more merits than they can use up.
"Okay, it's settled. Check the things to see if there is anything missing, then sign with the Law Enforcement Hall and you can go back." After Li Shuidao finished speaking, he turned around and left the secret room.
"Best regards, Your Majesty." The old man with poisonous hands said with gratitude.
…
Dulong Ridge.
Lengyue Sword Mansion.
Quiet night.
Li Shuidao, dressed in snow-white clothes, appeared quietly in the courtyard of the cave with his hands behind his back.
There is a big tree that is half withered and half in full bloom in the center of the courtyard.
Li Shuidao gently approached the big tree and walked around it. He gently touched the rough bark with his fingers and felt its unique texture.
After a long time...
Li Shuidao stretched out a finger, exerted slight force on his fingertip, and forced out a wisp of blood, then flicked it on the bark of the tree.
The bark seemed to be alive, quickly absorbing the blood, and then a strange change occurred.
The originally rough bark gradually became smooth, like jade polished by time, exuding a charming luster.
Its color is also gradually changing, from the original gray-brown to dark green, giving it a more vibrant atmosphere.
The rattan-like plant seemed to be dancing like a spiritual snake, shrinking rapidly and finally completely disappearing deep underground.
At this time, a huge tree hole appeared in the middle of the half-withered and half-prosperous tree.
This tree hole was naturally formed and existed naturally. Keel Tai Sui Qiu Lanying used one of his stems to transform into a big tree and blocked the tree hole.
Li Shuidao figured out the reason, smiled lightly, and broke into it without hesitation. His figure disappeared into the tree hole, leaving only a quiet night and the big tree that became silent again.
There is a cave inside the tree cave. The stone walls are as smooth as jade and the cave is full of spiritual energy.
Li Shuidao slid along the stone wall and came to a mysterious "tree house" hidden deep underground.
As soon as you enter the tree house, the first thing you feel is the smell of moist soil, which seems to be closely connected with the outside world. The surrounding walls are densely covered with roots, which are deeply rooted in the soil like blood vessels, providing this underground residence with unique vitality.
Every piece of furniture in the house is made of roots. On a long table, there were several shabby books and an oil lamp, emitting a weak and warm light. On the bookshelf next to it, there are hand-carved dolls.
In the center of the treehouse, on a chair made of roots, a girl was sleeping. Her face was delicate and her eyebrows were curved like willow leaves. The bridge of her nose was straight, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if she was having a sweet dream.
Her skin was as fair and flawless as crystal clear as porcelain. Her thick hair is draped smoothly over her shoulders, with a few strands of hair gently sticking to her face, adding a bit of charm to her delicacy.
Her body curled up slightly, like a lazy kitten. Her legs were bent and her feet swayed slightly, as if she were stepping on some rhythm.
The whole tree house is filled with the girl's breath, which is a fresh and natural breath that makes people relax unconsciously.
Li Shuidao stared at the girl quietly, feeling a warm current in his heart.
Six years...
Qiu Lanying remained unchanged at all, waiting for him to wake her up.
Li Shuidao stretched out his hand and kneaded it gently, opened his mouth and called softly...
Gradually, Qiu Lanying's eyes began to tremble slightly, as if she was trying hard to open her eyes.
Finally, Qiu Lanying's eyes slowly opened. When she saw Li Shuidao, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in her eyes.
"Master, you are finally back." Qiu Lanying sounded very excited.
Li Shuidao couldn't help but be moved when he heard Qiu Lanying's voice. He gently stroked Qiu Lanying's head and said softly: "Yes, I'm back."
Master and disciple hugged each other, and silence was worth a thousand words at this time.
"Master, I have dug into the abyss of poison below." Qiu Lanying said softly.
"Put on your clothes, let's go take a look below." Li Shuidao turned over his hands and took out a small plain women's clothing.
"Yeah." Qiu Lanying nodded.
