"Huang Maple Valley also teaches mortals how to brew spiritual wine?"
The young man blinked his big eyes, half curious and half longing for the tunnel.
"It's not the Yellow Maple Valley Sect, but the local sect where I work. It's a spiritual field garden surrounded by formations, filled with spiritual grains that are eaten by cultivators. According to seniors, there is more spiritual energy in the garden than in the outside world. That's us. These mortals can prolong their lives by staying in them all year round.
The Immortal Chief who manages the garden, Shenlong, has never been seen before. I heard that he spends the whole year in retreat on the hill in the center of the garden. He is a cultivator in the foundation-building stage! "
Luo Hong puffed out his chest and looked very proud.
"It's amazing. If I could practice in a place like that, I would be willing to lose ten years of my life!"
The young man's eyes lit up with a dazzling look.
"So good, why did my little friend come out?"
When Old Man Xiao heard what the other party said so logically, he couldn't help but believe it, but he was still a little worried that the other party had sneaked out.
"Hehe, of course I marry my wife and obey my wife. Don't worry, Immortal. Manager Zhuo of the garden knows about my wife's affairs. This gourd that can store spiritual wine was given to me and my wife as a wedding gift by him. "
Luo Hong said with some shyness of a young man.
"Oh, that's it. Then what happened to this fellow Taoist's injury?"
As soon as Old Man Xiao's question came out of his mouth, Luo Hong's expression darkened and her eyebrows lowered.
"It's just that when I was collecting the elixir for brewing spiritual wine, I was injured by a money rat. I was poisoned by the animal's money poison. Only with the help of my colleagues who practice the Jin Xing Kung Fu, can the poison be discharged."
Lian Feihua still had an indifferent tone.
"Money poison? No wonder fellow Taoist hid his face."
Old Man Xiao also knew about money poison, and he knew that copper coin-like plaques would appear on the faces of those who were poisoned.
This saved Luo Hong a lot of time.
"Grandpa, I don't think these two are bad people, why don't you help them?"
The young man blinked smartly, leaned behind Old Man Xiao and said.
"Okay, since you two are both casual cultivators and life is not easy, I will make an exception."
Old Man Xiao did feel that the female cultivator's aura was empty, and thought that no one would seek revenge with injuries. Coupled with the temptation of the spirit wine, he agreed.
So, Luo Hong moved her seat and sat across from Old Man Xiao. Next to her sat Xiao Cuier, who was disguised as a man.
Ever since this woman heard that Luo Hong came from the Yellow Maple Valley, she started asking all kinds of questions about the Yellow Maple Valley. Luo Hong could only pick some answers that he could answer.
But just like this, this woman also looks more and more fascinated. It seems that her heart towards the Tao is really very determined. No wonder she will succeed in forming pills in the future.
After drinking and chatting for a while, the Xiao family's ancestors and grandson's alertness dropped significantly. Part of it was due to Luo Hong's proficient acting skills, and most of it was because they thought they were on the stronger side.
When parting, Old Man Xiao promised to visit a few mortal officials tomorrow to help him find out about the young general.
After closing the door, Luo Hong gave Lian Feihua another Ecstasy Pill and asked her to sit alone in front of the dressing table.
He himself understood the refining method of Liuhe Divine Needle and figured out where to get these materials.
...
At this moment, Qian Mulan was looking at the two soldiers kneeling at his feet with a livid face, and said angrily:
"Lost?! How can two big living people be lost?! Tell me exactly what happened in the past few days when I was away!"
"General, it's true that we and I are not slacking off on military orders. After the general left, the two young masters were able to work out their muscles peacefully in the camp at first. However, three days ago, the father-in-law from the palace came to work for the army under orders, and for some reason they fell in love with it. In recognition of the bravery of the two young masters, I requested an imperial edict from the palace the next day, ordering the two young masters to participate in the competition in front of the palace."
The two soldiers said tremblingly. Although the female general in front of them never charged into position to kill the enemy and claimed to be a wise general, as soldiers they were well aware of her amazing power.
With their bodies, they couldn't resist the general's angry punch.
"A martial arts competition in front of the palace? Why has this general never heard of this?"
Qian Mulan asked doubtfully.
"This is the order that came out of the palace after the general left. He said that he would invite talented people and strangers in the imperial city to compete in front of the palace. The winner would be granted the title of Heavenly Master."
"Then what? My two nephews disappeared from the competition?"
Qian Mulan asked urgently. These two young men were the most qualified immortal cultivators of his generation in the Qian family. They were taken out of the Qian family by her a year ago. They used the evil spirits in the army to practice the Iron Cauldron Golden Body Skill. become.
Unexpectedly, she only went out for more than ten days and no one came back. How could this not make Qian Mulan anxious and angry?
"Of course not. We were always with you during the competition. Although the two young masters were brave, they followed the general's instructions before leaving and did not show their true skills. They deliberately lost in the first round.
I thought the matter was over, but on my way home, I was suddenly blinded by a black wind and woke up..."
The soldier who spoke raised his head and glanced at the young general, swallowed his saliva and said:
"The two young masters have disappeared."
"snort!"
Qian Mulan slapped the solid wood table in front of him in half with a sudden palm strike. She glanced at the two quail-like mortal soldiers and waved them away with a slight annoyance.
"Do you need help?"
A gentle voice sounded behind Qian Mulan, but she didn't react in particular as if she knew someone was there.
"Aren't the disciples of the Seven Sects unable to participate in all affairs of the Imperial City of Yue? It's a waste of time, but this is my Qian family's family matter, I will handle it myself!"
Qian Mulan stood up with a gun and walked out of the camp with big steps.
"Senior sister, will something happen to Miss Qian like this?"
"Hey, you go back first and I'll stay here to take care of you for a few days."
"Sister, this is not good, the ban on the Seven Sects is no joke."
"No need to say more, Miss Qian just helped us, I can't ignore her affairs. Don't worry, my identity will not be exposed."
As soon as the gentle words fell, more than a dozen white shadows quietly walked out of the camp and went straight out of the military camp. However, the mortal soldiers seemed to be blind and could not notice them at all.
...
At noon the next day, Luo Hong got good news from Old Man Xiao.
There is only one girl general around the imperial city, General Qian who was transferred back from the border just now and is currently stationed at the camp in the east of the city.
Luo Hong was overjoyed and thanked him, and then prepared to go to the camp in the east of the city alone.
"Sister Lian, won't you go?"
When he walked to the door, Xiao Cuier, still dressed in men's clothing, caught up to him and asked curiously.
"She is weak, so it's better to stay in the restaurant to recuperate."
Luo Hong made it up casually, and the reason made sense.
"That's right, but how can you, a mortal, enter the military camp? Should you use spiritual wine to clear the way?"
Xiao Cuier was very smart and immediately noticed the flaw in Luo Hong's behavior.
How to get in?
Naturally, I use the Earth Escape Technique to get in.
Luo Hong was about to find a reason when he heard Xiao Cuier chuckle and take out a tiger head waist badge from behind.
"Look, with this sign, you can enter and leave the military camp unimpeded."
"Ah, thank you girl, you are really thoughtful."
Luo Hong stretched out his hand to take it, but Xiao Cuier retracted his hand and let him touch it empty.
"Do you want to go with me?"
Luo Hong asked in surprise.
"Yes!" Xiao Cuier nodded with a smile.
"Your grandfather wouldn't agree, right?"
According to how much Old Man Xiao cherishes his granddaughter, he will never let Xiao Cuier risk meeting an unfamiliar immortal cultivator.
"Oh, I won't go into the military camp. I just want to ask you a few questions on the way. Let's go quickly and don't delay your wife's injury."
Xiao Cuier waved her hands guiltily, pushing Luo Hong out the door.
On the street, in order to maintain her youthful image, Xiao Cui'er was finally not so weird, so she put one hand behind her back and pretended to be a gentleman.
"Brother Luo, have you ever seen a real monk in the foundation building stage? What do they look like?"
After arriving at a slightly secluded place, Xiao Cuier suddenly asked.
"I have only met two monks in the foundation-building stage. One is the Immortal Chief in charge of the garden, and the other is a good friend of the Immortal Chief. I have served them several times while they were drinking.
However, I am a mortal and do not have the ability to use spiritual eyes. I just feel that the two of them look no different from mortals. They should be about the same age as me. "
Luo Hong said truthfully, as long as a cultivator does not show his magical powers, he is indeed just like a mortal in the eyes of mortals.
"As old as you?! There are two such young Foundation Establishment monks!"
Xiao Cui'er had a look of disbelief. The young warrior next to him was only in his mid-twenties at most. A foundation-building monk of the same age as him had to have been practicing since his mother was born!
"Haha, Miss Xiao seems to want to build a foundation, but it should be difficult not to join the big sect."
Luo Hong looked at Xiao Cuier with a smile. Not to mention, this girl was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she was already very graceful. She would be a great beauty in a few years. No wonder Old Man Xiao kept letting her Women disguise themselves as men.
"Who doesn't want to build a foundation? You won't look down on me!"
Xiao Cui'er seemed to have been poked in a painful spot, her mouth deflated, and she said angrily.
"How can the next mortal look down on you? It's just that my wife said before that immortal cultivators like you who live in the secular world have given up on the path of immortality and are only greedy for the pleasures of the world. Otherwise, she would not be dragging her sick body to show up in front of your ancestors and grandchildren. Cultivation.
You know, before we came here, we heard that the Imperial City was not peaceful recently, and many casual cultivators disappeared inexplicably. "
Luo Hong said with some worry that she would not interfere with Xiao Cuier's question of whether she could build a foundation before her chance came.
"It's because of the unrest that grandpa tried to shirk everything yesterday. The way for us casual cultivators to survive is to keep a low profile and get involved in as little trouble as possible, so that we can live a long life."
As Xiao Cuier said this, she seemed to realize how inappropriate her actions today were, and she glanced around secretly.
Haha, now I know I'm afraid.
Luo Hong was secretly amused, thinking how could it be so easy to meet an immortal cultivator, but after his consciousness subconsciously swept away, he was stunned for a moment.
There really is!
Right in front of them, a hundred feet away in the direction of their travels, a Qi Refining seventh-level San Xiu was making a fuss in a mortal shop.
Luo Hong remained calm and continued to move forward with Xiao Cuier, who was still clueless, and soon heard the noise made by the casual cultivator.
The casual cultivator was dressed like a rugged traveler and did not use any magic power. Therefore, outside the shop where the incident occurred, there were already three floors inside and three floors outside of the ordinary people watching the excitement.
However, Luo Hong and Xiao Cuier both have spiritual consciousness, and they can know what is happening inside even though they are separated from the crowd.
This is an ordinary tofu shop. Although the proprietress is somewhat pretty, she is by no means the kind of beauty that would allow cultivators to rob her in public.
But after the rogue cultivator knocked down several young men with his fists and kicks, he stretched out his big hand to grab the proprietress.
Out of curiosity, Luo Hong glanced at the woman with his spiritual consciousness and knew the reason, and then stopped paying attention.
He turned to look at Xiao Cuier. If this little girl wants to punish evil and promote good, she might be in trouble. This person is so arrogant, and he is probably inseparable from the Black Evil Cult.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Luo Hong turned his head, he met a pair of worried eyes.
It turned out that Xiao Cuier was worried from the beginning that Luo Hong, a warrior, would not be able to see through it and would be too passionate to stand out, so she kept staring at him.
"Let's go."
Luo Hong sighed and continued walking forward, as if he didn't care.
After all, the man just wanted to grab an earring. The green stone on the earring was a spiritual material called willow-o'-the-wisp, and it was somehow made into an earring.
Xiao Cuier lowered her head and followed. Although she knew she shouldn't take action, she always felt aggrieved, especially when the victim was a beautiful woman like her.
The two of them had just walked a dozen feet away when the wanderer and cultivator looked at the tofu shop proprietress with resentment, crushed her earrings, and laughed while holding a green stone.
"Hey~ turns out to be crazy!"
"A spoiler of fun!"
If the strong man did not rob the women of the people, then there would be no drama for the chivalrous people to watch and the onlookers dispersed one after another.
The wanderer cultivator ignored the rude mortal. After collecting the windfall, he took out a white-haired mouse from his arms, with a stern look in his eyes.
Half an hour later, Luo Hong and Xiao Cuier left the imperial city. There was no one around and there was no need to worry about it. One raised his energy and performed Qing Gong, and the other used the light body spell. After a while, they arrived outside the camp in the east of the city.
"Brother Luo, please go in with your token. I'll wait for you outside. You must finish telling me the story of Senior Zhuo's battle in the forbidden area today."
Xiao Cuier had completely forgotten her unhappiness just now, and excitedly imagined a group of twelfth-level Qi refining masters fighting.
"Haha, that's not a story. When the immortal told us about the ancient times, he said it with certainty. It must be true!"
Luo Hong's eyes widened, seeming a little annoyed at Xiao Cuier's distrust.
"It's true, one versus ten, Qi refining versus foundation building, it's all true. Brother Luo, go and come back quickly."
Xiao Cuier tried hard to hold back her laughter, waving her delicate little hands to ask Luo Hong to go faster, she couldn't hold it in any longer.
Luo Hong turned around, her depressed expression suddenly turned into a smile. It was really fun to tease this little girl.
After entering the military camp with the token, Luo Hong cast a spell and asked the mortal soldiers leading the way to take him to a secluded place.
Then, he used the Earth Escape Technique and headed straight towards the camp in the central area.
