He has collected a lot of materials over the past few hundred years, but there are still a few most important ones that he has not found.
For example, this golden vine is still short of several bundles for making firewood.
"Golden vine, Tanggu water, black green iron, a cluster of bright heart fire..."
Fu Zhu sounded like chanting sutras and felt a little drowsy. After a long time, the tiny sounds finally stopped, and she tried her best to raise her face, "You...haven't you collected anything over the years?"
He couldn't have just had a flash of inspiration and wanted to refine a fairy sword, but Fu Zhu suddenly felt that he was very unreliable.
And besides the Golden Vine, she had never heard of the other things he said.
"How is that possible!" Mr. Zi immediately retorted, "I started collecting them hundreds of years ago, but the first four items are so rare that I don't have much clue yet."
"The piece of golden vine you gave me earlier is the largest piece I have collected over the years. I thought you could even get such a good thing, so I caught up with you to negotiate a deal!"
Thinking of the golden vines piled up like a hill in the storage bag, Fu Zhu remained silent.
Mr. Zi sighed, "If there is a fairy sword for me to study, the success rate will definitely be greater."
"But the fairy sword is too rare. It's rare to find it. You probably won't have this chance."
Fu Zhu became more and more silent as she listened. She had two fairy swords in her hands.
"You help me practice a high-grade magic weapon, and I will help you find the remaining golden vines."
Mr. Zi looked at her in surprise. She had been very resistant to helping her find materials before, but suddenly she became eager again.
"What kind of magic weapon do you want?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's wait until I think of it in the future." She had to go back to the sect and find a senior brother who knew how to refine weapons to draw the drawings before she knew exactly what she wanted.
Mr. Zi didn't ask any more questions and immediately nodded in agreement.
"There is a ruins in the southeast of here, which contains a sword intent. If you are interested, you can go and have a look." Mr. Zi said casually.
That ruins was also accidentally discovered when he was looking for materials. There should be a lot of good things in it, especially the sword intention. It was a rare opportunity for the sword cultivator, so he did it as a favor to her. As for her to go If she doesn't go, it's up to her.
Fu Zhu responded softly: "I know, I'll go and have a look if I'm on my way."
Zi Lao looked relaxed, raised his head and drank a few gulps of wine, "Now that we've agreed, the old man has returned to the town. He hasn't been out of the stall for several days."
"Senior." Fu Zhu called him and stood up to see him off, "My name is Fu Zhu."
Only then did Mr. Zi remember that he hadn't asked this little girl her name yet. He was really confused. He waved his hand and said, "I know, I know. Sit down, there's no need to send it away."
The girl still stood upright and watched him leave before sitting back.
Wu Sheng had already finished chewing the whole fish that Zi Lao had grilled. The fish bones were piled on the floor, and there were swarms of ants carrying the tiny bone spurs.
"What are you looking at?" Fu Zhu made a hand and moved the fish bones and ants away. "Go to bed early if you have nothing to do. We have to be on the road tomorrow!"
Wu Sheng was not sure for a moment whether she was rushing to Zhouxucheng or to the ruins the old man mentioned.
Sunrise was covered with a leaf, and he fell asleep soundly.
The next day, as soon as the sky turned white, I woke up at sundown.
She picked up the quilt from last night and went to catch the dew to wash her face, only to find that the old man was gone.
I don’t know what he said to Fu Zhu last night. But Fu Zhu was still practicing, so Riji lay aside and waited for her.
The air in the early morning is the best. I stretched out in Riji and felt full of energy.
Turning around, she saw that Wu Sheng had also gotten up. She raised a smile and said, "Good morning, Wu Sheng!"
Although she knew that Wu Sheng would ignore her, Hiji still said hello to him. It's his business if Wu Sheng ignores people, and it's his own business if she wants to say hello.
I don’t know what the elf is so happy about every day. Wu Sheng pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and nodded slightly in response to her.
Riji was stunned. Did Wu Sheng say hello to her just now?
She happily flew to Fu Zhu's shoulder, stood on tiptoes and whispered.
Fu Zhu was also surprised for a moment, and then chuckled. It seemed that the master was right to ask her to take Wu Sheng down the mountain to practice. He was no longer as silent and autistic as when he first arrived at Xuanjian Peak.
Wu Sheng looked at the two of them strangely, not knowing what to say in private.
After a day of sword-playing, he finally arrived at Zhaosheng City where Fu Zhu wanted to go.
Hiji already knew a few characters. As soon as she saw these three characters, she happily asked, "Fuzhu, this is Teruso Castle, right?"
Fu Zhu chuckled and nodded, "Yes, it's Zhaosheng City."
Riji scratched his face, "But aren't we going to Caixia Terrace?"
"Yes, we are going to Caixiatai, but it will be closer from here."
"There is a teleportation array in Zhaosheng City. Let's take the teleportation array there."
As one of the few cities with a large teleportation array, Zhaosheng City is full of people.
In particular, monks often come here for transit, and there are too many people, so the screening for entering the city is relatively loose and the queues are fast.
Fu Zhu looked at the map Linzhang gave her and discovered that there was a teleportation array connecting Zhaosheng City and Caixia Terrace.
Thousands of years ago, the teleportation array had not yet emerged.
For the formation to connect the two cities, it requires an formation master with extremely high attainments in formations to complete, and people have to be sent to repair and maintain it every ten years.
Therefore, it is very expensive to sit in the teleportation array, and each person needs to pay ten high-grade spiritual stones.
After Fu Zhu entered the city, she asked about the location of the teleportation array. When she rushed there, it happened to be the last trip of the day.
"How many people are there?" the monk in charge of recording asked without raising his head.
"Three." Fu Zhu previously understood the rules for seating people in the teleportation array. As long as it is a living creature, it will be counted as one person's fee.
For example, the spiritual pets and mounts raised by monks. Naturally, plant elves like Hiji, who have cultivated human form, are also among them.
"Thirty high-grade spiritual stones, after paying them, go to the teleportation array and wait."
The monk counted the spiritual stones, and after making sure they were correct, he put them into the wooden box beside him.
Their sword sect has always used swords when traveling. This is Fu Zhu's first time riding in such a large teleportation array, which is actually quite novel for her.
The teleportation array is a huge circular platform with dense array patterns painted on the bottom, like ancient tree and vine branches intertwined together.
There were already many monks waiting above. Fu Zhu calmly estimated that there were about thirty people.
They were all walking in groups of three and five, talking quietly, but there was a girl wearing a curtain hat at the very end of the formation, holding a snow-white fox, who looked a little out of place.
Fu Zhu looked away lightly, she held Wu Sheng in hand, and after stepping on the formation, the formation under her feet emitted a gleaming green light.
The branches and vines are outlined into many circles, and the green inside is even deeper, like green fruits grown on countless branches.
A beam of green light shot up into the sky, and suddenly his vision went dark, and the sky began to spin. Fu Zhu tightened Wu Sheng's hand and moved to the edge to avoid being hit by the shaking person.
"I never swayed like this when sitting in the teleportation array before!"
"boom--"
"I dropped something, did any of you step on it?"
"Who knows where it went in the dark, ugh..."
There was chaos in the teleportation array.
