Lu Zhu chuckled, "That's good. Last time I went to see you, you were still in a coma."
Ji Liao shook his head helplessly, "I can't help it. I was hunted down by the Foundation Establishment Stage. I'm lucky to have escaped with my life."
"At that time, you looked extremely miserable. Junior Sister Long took care of you day and night, but it made Junior Sister Long very distressed." Lu Zhu said jokingly.
Ji Liao smiled lightly, "Senior Brother Lu, please don't make fun of me and Senior Sister Long Ji. If she hears it, I will be implicated by you again."
Lu Zhu was a free and easy-going man who liked to make friends and was very understanding of the world. Naturally, he had already noticed Long Ji's affection for Ji Liao, but he didn't know whether Ji Liao really didn't understand or was just pretending. Ji Liao said, "You, you are too stupid. Junior Sister Long Ji will not get angry at me because of these words."
"Oh? What do you mean by this?" Ji Liao asked with a raised brow.
"Forget it, you can experience it yourself." Lu Zhu didn't want to speak too directly, so he prevaricated Ji Liao.
"Yeah, okay." Ji Liao nodded, then glanced at the gourds placed around the stone chamber and asked, "Brother Lu, what kind of spiritual seeds are these gourds? They are too big."
"Those gourds are a kind of spiritual seed called meteor gourds. After they are matured and refined, they can produce a strange power, which can absorb the power of the sun, moon and stars on their own. They are unique to our Lu family of immortal cultivators. Some spiritual plants." Lu Zhu replied casually.
"Meteor gourd?" Ji Liao murmured, and then asked, "Is this the same one that Senior Brother Lu always carries with him?"
"Well, yes and no!"
"Oh? How?"
"These gourds are not of a high level, and even if they are made into magic weapons, they will not have much power. What I carry with me is passed down from generation to generation in my family. It is a variant of the meteor gourd, called the Red Star Gourd. This Red Star Gourd is extremely precious. Only one meteor gourd will appear out of a million. Moreover, it is not easy to make a Red Star Gourd into a magic weapon. The failure rate is extremely high. Our family has inherited it for so many years, and there are only three of these Red Star Gourds. , and my Scarlet Star Gourd is the one that has been passed down the longest in the family, and the essence of the sun and moon swallowed in it is also the richest, but now my cultivation level is too low, and I still cannot exert the full power of this Scarlet Star Gourd." Lu Zhu pointed out. Holding these gourds, he explained to Ji Liao.
Ji Liao nodded, "That's it."
"Junior Brother Ji, if you like these gourds of mine, you can choose one of them at will. Anyway, I will take it back to the family and give it to other children of the family." Seeing that Ji Liao was interested in these gourds, Lu Zhu said.
A cultivating family has something they rely on, such as the Daluo Mountain of the Huang family and the Tao of the Ji family. These are the foundation of the cultivating family. It can be said that these things are what a cultivating family relies on to survive, so The Xiuxian family attaches great importance to these things and will never reveal them to outsiders. Ji Liao, who was born in a Xiuxian family, naturally understands this.
Ji Liao was still very touched by Lu Zhu's generosity and said, "No, these things are unique to Senior Brother Lu's family. In this case, why should I make it difficult for you."
"What does this mean?" Lu Zhu said.
Ji Liao didn't answer. He chuckled and patted the storage bag on his waist. A ray of light flew out and landed in Ji Liao's hand. A talisman appeared. It was the talisman Ji Liao had just refined. Zhang Daofu.
Glancing at Lu Zhu, Ji Liao smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time, Senior Brother Lu. I have something to give to Senior Brother Lu this time."
Lu Zhu's eyes fell on the Taoist talisman in Ji Liao's hand. He didn't know the meaning behind it, but he just felt that this Taoist talisman was quite extraordinary. As for where the extraordinary thing was, he couldn't tell clearly, and then hesitantly said, "This is... .”
"This is a Taoist talisman, which contains my Taoist meaning. It is made of the top spiritual material Appendix Bamboo for refining talisman paper. It is a Taoist talisman that can be used repeatedly." Ji Liao said.
"What!" When Lu Zhu heard that this talisman was a Taoist talisman, he stood up suddenly in shock and looked at Ji Liao in disbelief.
Ji Liao looked at Lu Zhu with a smile on his face and said nothing.
Lu Zhu looked at Ji Liao intently, and after a long time he still said in disbelief, "Tao talisman! Could it be that Junior Brother Ji has realized the meaning of Tao?"
Ji Liao nodded, "After seven years of enlightenment, I finally realized my own Taoism."
Lu Zhu looked at Ji Liao in shock. He had heard rumors about Taoist talismans. It was said that the talisman was the ultimate expression of Fu Xiu's enlightenment on the way of talismans. It was rumored that Taoist talismans were extremely difficult to make. After realizing the Taoist meaning, Then it is shown on the talisman, and if you want to realize the Tao, it is simply impossible without the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage.
What he saw now was that a boy who had not yet reached the tenth level of Naqi actually realized the Taoist meaning and made a Taoist talisman. This shocked Lu Zhu's heart.
At the same time, he also knew how rare the Tao Talisman was. Even if a monk at the Golden Core stage wanted to obtain a Tao Talisman, it would be more difficult than ascending to heaven, because the Tao Talisman was the ultimate expression of a Talisman cultivator, and it was also the fatal point of that Talisman cultivator. , once someone understands the Taoist intention of the Talisman Cultivator, the Talisman Cultivator will be extremely dangerous, so a Talisman Master will not give it away easily.
After a long time, Lu Zhu calmed down, took a deep breath, sat back slowly, and said, "It turns out that the seven years since Junior Brother Ji disappeared was when he attained enlightenment."
Ji Liao smiled faintly and said, "With poor qualifications, it took seven years to realize the meaning of Taoism. If it were someone with other qualifications or good understanding, it probably wouldn't have taken that long."
Lu Zhu shook his head, "Junior brother Ji is too modest. It is incredible to realize the Taoist meaning during the Naqi period. Not to mention seven years to realize the Taoist meaning, even ten or dozens of years to realize the Taoist meaning is shocking and shocking. It’s beyond reach.”
Ji Liao's eyes flashed slightly. Naturally, he would not tell Lu Zhu about his enlightenment technique called The Way of All Things. He casually handed over the Taoist talisman in his hand, "Take it."
Lu Zhu waved his hands quickly, "No, this is really not possible. The Taoist talismans are too precious. How can I ask for such a heavy gift from Junior Brother Ji?"
"Just take it if I tell you to." Ji Liao said, directly stuffing the Taoist talisman into Lu Zhu's arms, and then said, "Previously, when the Huang family fled, Senior Sister Mo Xiang and I I said that you went to see her and wanted her to take care of me. Ji Mou will keep this friendship in mind, and this Taoist charm is nothing."
Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly, "Even so, it is not worthy of such an expensive gift. Besides, the spiritual material used to make this Taoist Talisman is something as precious as the appendix Yuzhu."
"It's worth it!" Ji Liao said decisively.
Lu Zhu and Ji Liao looked at each other for a moment, and then smiled casually, "Since Junior Brother Ji said so, it would seem that Lu is being girlish by delaying. In this case, Lu will be disrespectful by rejecting it."
Seeing Lu Zhu put away the Taoist talisman, Ji Liao nodded with satisfaction and said, "My Taoist intention is the way of swallowing and refining. To use it, you need to find a spiritual object to swallow and refine it. When I went to Huang's house before, it was It was because I devoured the Daluo Mountain that my family relied on for survival that the ancestor of the Huang family chased me for so long."
When Lu Zhu heard this, his expression froze, and then he laughed loudly, "Hahaha, Junior Brother Ji is really brave enough to swallow the basis of his survival on his territory."
Ji Liao also smiled and said, "When I got there, I already felt that something was wrong with the Huang family. I judged that they must have rebelled against the Purple Air Sect, and a group of us jumped in. They would not let us go. Since The war is unavoidable, so why should I leave anything to them? Of course I took everything I could."
"Hahaha, I admire Lu." Lu Zhu cupped his hands towards Ji Liao and then stood up, "Since Junior Brother Ji is here, don't leave. Come and have a few drinks with me. It just so happens that I haven't eaten ordinary food in many years." I have time to eat, so I will ask someone to get some for me."
Ji Liao nodded and did not shirk.
Lu Zhu walked out, and then came back again after about half an hour.
"Wait a moment. Many of our Chixia Peak disciples like wine and meat. It's not difficult to get these things." Lu Zhu said.
"Yeah." Ji Liao responded.
It's night time.
In Lu Zhu's cave, there was a strong aroma of wine and meat. Ji Liao and Lu Zhu sat across from each other and drank, talking and laughing happily.
After so many years of hard training in the Purple Air Sect, it was the first time that Ji Liao forgot all his worries and was so happy.
Because it was a gathering of friends, the two of them did not use their spiritual power to resist the influence of alcohol. Both of them had red faces and looked tipsy.
"Let me tell you, Junior Brother Ji, the chasm is so big, how can we encounter it so easily? In fact, Long Ji and I followed a white light and chased it, and then we met you." Lu Zhu burped from wine, and spoke fluently. Said something unclearly.
"I also guessed this. In fact, I also saw that stream of light, but fortunately there was that stream of light, otherwise Ji would not be where he is today." Although Ji Liao was also a bit drunk, he still held on to a trace of clarity and concealed the The secret in my heart.
"Hahaha, yes, otherwise there would be no brotherhood like ours. Come on, have another drink." After speaking, he raised his glass and touched it with Ji Liao, then raised his head and drank it all.
Ji Liao did not hesitate and drank up the wine in the cup.
Lu Zhu took the wine jar and filled it up for Ji Liao, and then said, "Oh, I just didn't expect that Junior Brother Ji, you and Long Ji could develop to this point."
Ji Liao's face turned red, his eyes were a little blurry, and he said, "I never thought that a beauty as beautiful as Long Ji could become my best friend."
"My best friend." Lu Zhu waved his hand, interrupting Ji Liao and said, "Can't you see that Long Ji is interested in you?"
"What do you mean?" Ji Liao said with a silly smile, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Hey, what do you mean?" Lu Zhu looked at Ji Liao with a smile and said with a lewd expression.
"Can Long Ji still have feelings for me as a man and a woman?" Ji Liao asked.
"Hahaha, Junior Brother Ji, you are enlightened." Lu Zhu said, raising his head and laughing.
"Impossible, how could Senior Sister Long fall in love with a poor guy like me?" Ji Liao said casually.
"Forget it, forget it if you don't believe it. By the way, Zheng Tianlong, who went to the Huang family with you a few days ago, returned to the sect. Did you know?" Lu Zhu asked again.
As soon as Ji Liao heard this, the way Zheng Tianlong looked at him flashed through his mind, and he was startled. His drunkenness instantly decreased by three points, and he asked suspiciously, "Zheng Tianlong is back?"
"Yes, it is said that he was so miserable when he came back. He almost died at the hands of the Huang family. He hid for so long before he escaped with his life." Lu Zhu did not notice anything unusual about Ji Liao and still carried him with him. Said drunkenly.
"Well, it's a good thing to be back." Ji Liao nodded and said.
"Forget it, don't mention these, come on, drink, drink all these jars today, we will not return until we are drunk." After saying this, Lu Zhu raised his head again and drank all the wine in the cup.
Ji Liao put the cup to his mouth, an imperceptible look flashed in his eyes, he hesitated, then raised his head and drank.
