At this time, Lu Cheng's soul descended from the sky, controlled the body of "Wukuang", and walked out of the wooden house.
He looked at Qingmei swallowing clouds and puffing out mist, and asked: "Qingqiu Heavenly Fox Skill?"
Upon hearing this, Qingmei turned around and looked into his wise eyes, her cold face softened: "Brother, are you back so soon?"
Lu Cheng said "hmm": "When you said that the skills were lost, did you only refer to Dong Qingqiu? Or did you mean that both West Qingqiu and Nan Qingqiu were lost?"
Qingmei replied: "East Qingqiu has lost the most, while both South Qingqiu and West Qingqiu have lost parts."
"Since we are both from the Fox Clan, why can't we go to Xiqingqiu to study?"
"Brother, when I say lost, I mean teaching by words and deeds without the guidance of a master. In fact, our Kung Fu has not been completely lost. It has been kept in the secret cave. There are 8 sapphire tablets in the secret cave with the secrets of the Kung Fu engraved on them. , but it’s a pity that it’s so old that few people can understand it. If you can understand it, you will have no problem becoming an eight-tailed fox.”
Lu Cheng smiled slightly and said: "Is the damaged boundary monument of Qingqiu Kingdom just an excuse? The real reason why you want to find the witch is to decipher the lost secret book?"
Qingmei smiled sweetly: "Brother, you are so smart! Do you know why I was able to get the Qingqiu Order? It's not because I offered the elixir, but because I followed you to become a spirit witch. This is a rare thing in Qingqiu Kingdom. Words are very rare, the fox master saw hope, so he fully supported it, hoping that one day I can explain the secret."
"Have you brought any rubbings from the sapphire tablet?"
"I only brought three rubbings of the monument."
"I'll help you take a look when I have time."
"Brother, you are so kind."
Lu Cheng called to Ying Chu: "Go and call Che Li from down the mountain and tell him that the elixir is finished."
Ying Chu bowed: "Yes, Witch Master."
After a while, Che Li led his men to the top of the mountain. Several of his men were standing in the distance, and he approached alone.
Che Li put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly and said, "Sir."
Lu Cheng said: "I worked hard for three days and three nights, spitting flames from my mouth, refining elixirs endlessly, melting the bones, and finally got 20 elixirs. I am a generous person, so I can give you 12. You should be satisfied." Take out 4 small glass bottles, each containing 3 pills.
Che Li was overjoyed, his eyes shone, he took the glass bottle and praised: "I didn't expect that Sir is a rare fire cultivator who can even burn out such a pure glass bottle. Is this the 'Great Rod Pill'? But I have never seen it before. I’ve seen it before, so I’m not sure whether it’s a Rodan, so what should I do?”
Lu Cheng said calmly: "You can take a third of one pill and try its medicinal effect."
Che Li was hesitant, but the matter was so important that he finally took out an elixir as he was told, cut it open with a knife, and ate a quarter of it.
After taking the elixir Zhihu, his eyes widened, and steam came out from the top of his head. He praised loudly: "What an amazing Rodan! Thank you, sir, I believe it is real!"
He walked to the edge and sat down cross-legged, trying to absorb the vast vitality in the elixir.
Several men came over and guarded him.
Lu Cheng looked up at the sky and saw that it was already getting late, so he was in no hurry and started on the road, preparing to leave overnight.
The sun set little by little, and it was not until dusk that Che Li slowly stood up, walked over and bowed deeply to Lu Cheng: "Thank you, sir, for helping me refine the elixir. I have some extravagant hopes in my heart. I want to take the items on my body and then follow him." You exchange two pills. Can you take a look at my collection and give me this chance?"
Lu Cheng nodded: "Okay, show me your collection."
Che Li hurriedly took out the items from the storage ring and placed them one by one in the leeward area. Some items were relatively light and were afraid of being blown away by the wind.
"Sir, which one do you like, I will tell you its origin."
Lu Cheng selected more than twenty demon pills, several tiger bones that had begun to turn into jade, and some spiritual herbs. For example, a ginseng that is three feet long and thicker than an arm!
This is the first time Lu Cheng has seen such a big ginseng!
"Sir, I picked this ginseng from the north. There was a demon tiger guarding it at the time. I killed the demon tiger and then dug out the ginseng."
Lu Cheng also saw some deer antlers. Deer antlers are the unossified and hairy young horns of sika deer or red deer. They are valuable Chinese medicinal materials.
He collected all these things and gave the other party two "big Rodan".
Che Li happily led his men away.
The next day, Lu Cheng led everyone to continue moving forward.
After walking for more than ten days, passing through dense forests and mountains, a plain appeared in front of them, with fields cultivated by human beings on the plain. The population here is relatively dense, with a village every dozens of miles.
Going further, there is a "Fragrant Wood City" a hundred miles away.
Xiangmu City is located on a medium-sized spiritual vein. Tens of thousands of acres of spiritual fields have been opened around the city, where spiritual grains and spiritual grasses are planted.
There is a witch temple and a martial arts hall in the city.
Lu Cheng walked around the street and found that the items here were relatively abundant, and the prices of elixirs were lower than elsewhere, especially wood and herbs.
It is said that the local area has been rich in sandalwood and wood incense for three thousand years, so it is called the "City of Fragrant Wood".
Sandalwood and woody incense have a refreshing effect on their own, so they are used as "soul-nourishing woods".
These two kinds of trees are not uncommon in the forest, but they often only grow for hundreds of years. Very few live for a thousand years, and extremely rare for more than three thousand years.
When trees grow for thousands of years, they are easily struck by thunder, burned by fire, blown down by strong winds, or annihilated by floods. It can grow to three thousand years. It is likely that it grew in a medicine garden and was protected by runes and formations to live that long.
Lu Cheng found a place to stay and decided to stay here for a while and repair himself before leaving.
"Qingmei, go and inquire and see if you can get three thousand years of sandalwood and wood incense."
Soon, Qingmei came back to report.
"Brother, I have inquired clearly. The owner of Xiangmu City is a family named 'Tan'. This family has had spiritual witches born for several generations. The oldest city owner has already left here and settled in Lingjiu Mountain. Their family has opened up a piece of land. There are hundreds of thousand-year-old fragrant trees growing in the valley, and more than a dozen three-thousand-year-old fragrant trees.”
Lu Cheng said: "You mean, if you want to get three thousand years of fragrant wood, you can only trade with this family?"
"Yes, bro."
"Okay, I'll visit Tan's house tomorrow."
Rest one night, and in the morning of the next day, go up to three poles.
Lu Cheng led his men to "Xiangmu Villa".
"Xiangmu Villa" is located outside the north gate of Xiangmu City. Xiangmu City is located at the foot of the mountain, with relatively low terrain. The terrain of Xiangmu Villa is higher, guarding the mouth of the "Xiangmu Valley".
Lu Cheng came to the entrance of the villa and said to the guarding samurai: "Ling Wu Cheng, come to visit."
For convenience, he used a pseudonym.
Because there are some witchcraft spells, as long as you know the name, you can cast spells to harm people, just like in Journey to the West, "Do you dare to agree if I call you?"
The warrior saw the jade sign hanging on his chest and hurried in to report.
Soon, a young wizard came, bowed to Lu Cheng and said, "Sir, please come in, my father is waiting for you."
Lu Cheng said to Ying Chu and others: "You just stay outside. Qingmei follow me in."
So Ying Chu and others stayed outside the villa.
Qingmei followed Lu Cheng. She was slender and had a sweet smile. She looked frail.
