Ji Liao walked slowly to the door of the secret room, pushed open the door of the secret room with a creak, and sat in the middle of the high platform in the center of the secret room.
With a wave of his hand, a ray of light flew out, and with another creak, the door to the secret room closed.
Ji Liao opened the isolation barrier, patted the storage bag on his waist, and the jade slip given to him by Yun Ni fell into his hand.
Picking up the jade slip and placing it between his eyebrows, Ji Liao's consciousness sank in.
But what was recorded in this jade slip was all the steps that Yun Ni took to imitate Daozi's Fuxian palace lantern, from material selection to smelting, from the records of failures to the moral character when overcoming difficulties. There were no less than hundreds of them. .
Ji Liao's consciousness moved, and he began to understand bit by bit from the very beginning.
In this way, time passed by unknowingly, and Ji Liao remained in that posture as motionless as a sculpture.
A full five months have passed.
On this day, a long rainbow flew over Shen Yun Mountain, and the next moment it landed on the square in front of Fuxian Palace.
Hu Huanqiu's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but feel helpless as he looked at the huge Fu Xiangong in front of him.
Ever since Ji Liao left Yantian Peak a few months ago, Hu Huanqiu had been looking around non-stop for the friend he knew who traveled between Xianbei and Extreme South.
He had no choice but to make his first meeting with this fifth master uncle unpleasant. Since the other party had something to do with him, Hu Huanqiu also understood that this was an opportunity to repair the relationship with his fifth master uncle. How could he dare to It took only four months to find that friend. After some bargaining, I finally used one hundred and twenty top-level spiritual stones to buy the map of the Eternal Snow Region from that friend, and then started working non-stop. Ran back.
It's just that Hu Huanqiu knew that his twenty top-level spiritual stones were wasted. Even if the fifth uncle had said it was not enough, he would still give them to them, but he didn't know how to ask for them.
Chen Xue'e almost never left the square of Fu Immortal Palace during this period. Ji Liao once ordered that no one should disturb her, so she did not dare to leave, lest someone come here and break into Fu Immortal Palace without her knowledge. Ji Liao's cultivation.
As soon as Hu Huanqiu landed in the square, Chen Xue'e noticed it immediately, got up and walked out.
Chen Xue'e was just wondering who would come to see her ancestor. When she saw that the person who came was the slovenly looking Hu Huanqiu, her expression changed and she immediately sank.
"It's you!" Chen Xue'e said coldly.
She had not forgotten that the sloppy old man in front of her made sarcastic remarks to her and Ji Liao in that shabby shop in Wangxian City, and even kicked them out in the end.
Hu Huanqiu was not surprised. He grinned and said, "Hey, junior sister, we meet again."
"Hmph! Who is your junior sister?" Chen Xue'e snorted and said coldly without any appreciation.
"Tsk, look, I was a senior brother at that time and I was blind and ignorant.
Taishan, senior brother, I’m here to apologize to you. "Hu Huanqiu smacked his lips and said to Chen Xue'e.
At this moment, Ji Xiaorou rubbed her eyes and walked out of Chen Xue'e's cabin with a sleepy look.
When Hu Huanqiu saw Ji Xiaorou appear, his body froze slightly, then turned around and looked up and down at Chen Xue'e in front of him.
Only then did he understand why Chen Xue'e just said who was his junior sister.
"Hahaha, it was my nephew who was wrong. It turned out to be the fifth junior wife. Forgive me for my stupidity. It's my sin. It's my sin."
After thinking about this, Hu Huanqiu once again saluted Chen Xue'e and chanted.
Chen Xue'e was originally angry because Hu Huanqiu was looking at her, but she never thought that Hu Huanqiu would misunderstand her and mistakenly think of herself as Ji Liao's Taoist companion. She suddenly lost most of her anger.
She rolled her eyes. In this case, she just went with the flow and made mistakes, and a smile appeared on her lips.
"Master nephew, why did you come to see your fifth master uncle this time?"
Hu Huanqiu chuckled, as if he were a junior, "Uncle Fifth Master asked me to buy something before. After more than four months of busy work, I finally bought it. No, as soon as I got it, I delivered it to Uncle Master Five."
"Oh? Really?" Chen Xue'e's eyes moved and she asked with a smile.
"Look, the thing is here." Hu Huanqiu took out a brown wooden box that was as long as an arm.
Chen Xue'e took it without looking at it, but looked at Hu Huanqiu with her hands behind her hands, "Did your uncle give you the spirit stone?"
"Give it, give it!" Hu Huanqiu said immediately with a smile.
"According to what I know about your fifth uncle, he always gives more spirit stones to others when he asks people to do things. I wonder how many spirit stones are left?" Chen Xue'e raised the corner of her mouth and asked with a smile.
"This..." Hu Huanqiu paused when he heard the words, glanced at Chen Xue'e who was smiling, and immediately understood Chen Xue'e's intention.
He cried out in his heart that he was unlucky. He didn't have any money left to buy this map of the eternal snow area. He even put twenty top-level spiritual stones in it. But now it seems that the fifth master's wife is obviously still angry and deliberately making things difficult. his.
"Hey, there are leftovers, there are leftovers!" Hu Huanqiu could only admit defeat and spend money to settle the matter. He slapped the storage bag and ten top-level spiritual stones fell into his hands. "Master, look at these leftovers." Those spiritual stones.”
The ice-snow and smart Chen Xue'e looked at Hu Huanqiu's expression like a dead father and mother, and immediately understood that these spiritual stones were definitely paid for by him.
She showed no mercy and took the spirit stone over. After thinking about it, she took out another top-grade spirit stone and threw it into Hu Huanqiu's hand.
"Master, I am also reasonable. Since you have been working for your fifth uncle for so long, this top-level spiritual stone should be used as a reward for your hard work. I wonder if you have seen enough, nephew?"
Hu Huanqiu looked at the nine spirit stones in Chen Xue'e's hand eagerly, and then glanced at the one spirit stone in his hand. He had been working hard here and there for more than half a year.
I lost a total of twenty-nine top-level spiritual stones. I was really unlucky.
He regrets it now. Why couldn't he have been nicer to the couple at that time? If so, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
"That's enough, that's enough. Thank you, Master, for the reward." Hu Huanqiu was crying, and the smile on his face was even uglier than crying.
"Well, okay, you can go back. You are so reliable in doing things. Next time something happens, I will ask your fifth uncle to come find you!" Chen Xue'e nodded with her hands behind her hands.
"Don't... don't look for me!"
Hu Huanqiu was shocked when he heard this.
Good guy, it's not enough to trick him once, he wants to trick him a second time, he trembled and exclaimed.
"What! Could it be that my nephew is dissatisfied with our husband and wife?" Chen Xue'e, who had devoured Hu Huanqiu to death, asked in a cold voice, her face darkening when she heard this.
"No, absolutely not."
"That's why, I'm afraid it won't be good if what you say reaches the ears of your fifth uncle, your master, or your master."
"Fifth Master, please calm down. This junior has just realized something about his cultivation recently and wants to stay in seclusion for a while. He wants to prevent Uncle Fifth Master from going to Yantian Peak in vain."
Chen Xue'e felt so happy when she saw Hu Huanqiu acting cautious and like a chicken pecking at rice. The bad temper she suffered in that shop that day finally came out.
She nodded slightly and looked like an elder, "Okay, you can go back. When your fifth uncle comes out of seclusion, I will tell him about this."
"Then thank you so much, Fifth Senior Sister." Hu Huanqiu lightened his body, let out a long breath, cupped his hands to Chen Xue'e, and without saying a word, fled into the sky.
When Hu Huanqiu's figure disappeared from Chen Xue'e's sight, Chen Xue'e suddenly burst into laughter, leaning forward and back, and stopped after a while.
"Since you were so rude to us that day, I will let you know today that I am not someone to be trifled with."
Chen Xue'e said something in the direction of Hu Huanqiu's retreat, and suddenly she seemed to be back to her girlish self again.
Ji Liao, who was in the secret room, knew nothing about the outside world.
At this time, the light was shining in the secret room. Ji Liao was sitting cross-legged on the high platform, with the strange palace lantern obtained in the realm of Nirvana in front of him.
His mouth opened slightly, and a colorful spiritual light spurted out from his mouth, pouring on the palace lantern like a waterfall.
At this time, all the spiritual patterns on the base of the palace lantern lit up, flickering one by one. As Ji Liao's spiritual power poured in, these spiritual patterns spread rapidly on the base, and were reorganized one by one.
The statue of a woman on the palace lantern, dressed in gauze and with her body half exposed, has changed her posture. She is no longer in a graceful dancing posture, but has become a sitting cross-legged posture, with her hands raised above her head and the fingertips of her two fingers coincidentally. Touching each other, their eyes were slightly closed, bathed in the spiritual energy exhaled by Ji Liao, as if a monk was practicing some technique.
It is enough for Ji Liao to maintain this posture
It has been a month. Four months ago, Ji Liao had completely understood the jade slips given to him by Yun Ni.
Although the jade slip does not record how to repair this kind of palace lantern, it does record the process of placing the wick when refining the palace lantern.
Jade slips once recorded that the palace lantern is an ownerless thing. Before placing the wick, it needs to be awakened by pouring spiritual power. After awakening the palace lantern, the steps are simple. Just pass the wick through the real fire, and then merge it with the palace lantern. .
This palace lantern was treated as rubbish in the Nirvana Realm. It was thrown into the yard and buried in the soil. I don’t know how many thousands of years have passed, but the spiritual power inside had long since dissipated. Because of this, Ji Liao was able to After pouring spiritual power into the palace lantern for so long, I still haven't seen it wake up.
However, Ji Liao felt that as long as he persisted for a while, the palace lantern would wake up, and once awakened, he would be able to restore it as before.
