After a cup of tea, four people sat around a stone table in a pavilion on the mountain. There were four bamboo cups on the stone table. Han Li, Li Feiyu and Zhang Tie sat at attention, only daring to sit on the corners of the stone chairs.
"I didn't expect that the Changchun Kung Fu I practiced was actually a technique for cultivating immortals!" Han Li said with a look of disbelief on his face.
Next to them, Zhang Tie and Li Feiyu looked at Han Li enviously, but there was no jealousy on their faces, which showed that they were truly happy for Han Li.
Jiang Yun elegantly picked up the bamboo cup and took a sip. After putting down the tea cup, he said softly: "It is very rare for people with spiritual roots like Taoist friends to accidentally acquire the skills without the guidance of immortals."
Han Li asked in confusion: "Immortal, you don't know what a spiritual root is?"
"Spiritual roots are the basis for distinguishing between mortals and immortal cultivators. Only those with spiritual roots can sense spiritual energy and draw it into their bodies.
"Only one in ten thousand people in the mortal world has spiritual roots. The number is very small. If you don't have spiritual roots, you will not be able to embark on the path of cultivating immortals by any means."
"Spiritual roots are divided into five major attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Some people have one attribute, some have two attributes, and most people have all five attributes."
"In addition, there are some mutated spiritual roots formed by the mixed mutation of two or three attributes, which are called alien spiritual roots, such as wind spiritual roots, thunder spiritual roots, ice spiritual roots, and dark spiritual roots."
Li Feiyu on the side asked curiously: "I wonder what kind of spiritual root you have, Immortal?"
Jiang Yun took a sip of tea, with a smile on his lips, and replied: "Me? I have five spiritual roots, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth!"
The three people on the side suddenly had a very fierce expression. Different thoughts also came to mind.
Zhang Tie: "It has all five elements, and I feel so powerful when I hear it!"
Li Feiyu: "The immortals have said that spiritual roots are used to sense spiritual energy. The more the better."
Han Li: "I don't know what kind of spiritual roots I have. It would be great if I have five spiritual roots."
"Thank you, Immortal, for your advice. Well...they..." Han Li looked at Li Feiyu and Zhang Tie, hesitating to speak.
"You want to ask if your two good brothers have spiritual roots, right?"
Jiang Yun could tell what Han Li wanted to say at a glance.
Han Li touched the back of his head and smiled innocently. The other two also looked at Han Li gratefully, with expectations in their eyes.
Jiang Yun naturally knew that Zhang Tie had spiritual roots, but Jiang Yun was not prepared to change Zhang Tie's life. Some small things were fine, but some events that had a major impact on Han Li were not changed by Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun said with a smile: "I don't mind helping them test, but I don't have the orb with me to test my spiritual roots. There is nothing I can do today."
Looking at the disappointed faces of the two, Jiang Yun continued: "But seeing the three of you today makes me quite emotional. I envy the friendship between you."
"Although I have many good friends, there may not be any of them who can completely surrender their lives. You must cherish each other!"
After hearing Jiang Yun's words, the three of them looked at each other and spoke one after another.
Li Feiyu: "One of those two guys doesn't know martial arts, and the other is stupid. I can't do it without me!"
Zhang Tie: "Li Feiyu and I don't have a good relationship. That guy always bullies me with his martial arts skills. When I master the elephant armor skill, I must defeat him. Han Li is the best person!"
Han Li: "They are all my friends."
Jiang Yun looked at the three of them and showed a soft smile.
"Fellow Daoist Han, the skill you practice seems to be the Changchun Gong. It's fate that we met today. I have this skill here which is pretty good, at least it is much better than the Changchun Gong."
After speaking, Jiang Yun took out a book of exercises from his storage bag and handed it to Han Li. Han Li was flattered and quickly stood up and took it with both hands.
"Thank you, Immortal!"
Jiang Yun waved his hand and smiled: "You and I are both cultivators of immortality, so you can call each other fellow Taoist. My cultivation level is higher than yours, so you can call me senior."
"I have many exercises in my storage bag. This one is remarkable and very suitable for you."
Han Li looked at the name and saw "Aoki Shinju" written on the cover.
But he knew that now was not the time to read the book carefully, so he solemnly stuffed the exercises into his arms, patted his chest uneasily, and had a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Jiang Yun nodded slightly and looked at Li Feiyu.
"Your body has some foundation damage, so I will give you a pill. This pill can not only make up for the foundation, but also strengthen the body and prevent all diseases."
After speaking, Jiang Yun took out a pill that emitted white light and handed it to Li Feiyu.
Li Feiyu took the elixir with both hands and was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
Jiang Yun finally looked at Zhang Tie, hesitated and said, "You are very healthy. I don't know what to give you at the moment. Is there anything you want?"
Zhang Tie looked at the two good brothers and winked wildly at him, but he was very nervous talking to the immortal and his mind went blank. Finally, something flashed through his mind and he said: "Roast chicken!"
Han Li and Li Feiyu covered their faces with their palms, seemingly speechless at Zhang Tie's answer.
Jiang Yun smiled and took out three silver bricks from the storage bag, each one the size of a brick.
"This is enough for you to buy roast chicken for a lifetime!"
Zhang Tie looked at the huge silver brick and swallowed, but did not accept it immediately. Instead, he waved his hands in a panic and said: "This is too much, I dare not accept it!"
Jiang Yun explained patiently: "These are commonplace things, worthless to me. They are not comparable to the previous elixirs and techniques. I only prepare some when I occasionally travel in the mortal world."
"Don't worry, accept it. I still have a few hundred dollars of the same thing, so you don't have to be polite."
Zhang Tie breathed a sigh of relief. After saying his thanks, he wrapped the silver brick in his coat, held it in his arms and smiled stupidly.
Jiang Yun drank all the tea in the cup and then stood up.
"Okay, it's a pleasure to meet three little friends today. I have to go find my lost things, so I'll say goodbye!"
The three people stood up quickly, and one of them, Han Li, said respectfully: "I wonder if your senior can tell you what you are looking for. We also want to help. I have received favors from my senior, and although my ability is low, I am still grateful!"
Li Feiyu and Zhang Tie also nodded in agreement.
"There is nothing that cannot be said. What is missing is a green bottle, which will emit green light under the moonlight. This thing can speed up the growth of plants and is extremely important to me!"
Han Li reacted instantly and said excitedly: "Senior, could it be the Lord Jiang Yun of the Zhenfan Palace!"
Jiang Yun smiled bitterly: "In order to find the green bottle, I went to the doctor for a sudden illness and asked my subordinates to go to the worldly powerful people for help. This matter has been made known to everyone!"
When Han Li heard Jiang Yun's answer, he tried to kneel down again, but Jiang Yun was already prepared and quickly reached out to stop him.
"Fellow Taoist, why is this happening?"
"Senior, I don't know. My mother used to..." Han Li soon told the story of getting food and his mother's medical treatment, including the matter of the longevity tablet.
Jiang Yun suddenly said: "I see, as cultivators of immortality, we don't have to worry about this little thing at all."
"But as a senior, I still have to remind fellow Taoists."
"Senior, please give me your instructions!"
Jiang Yun sighed and said softly: "Perhaps it is because of the misunderstanding given to you by the behavior of the Zhenfan Temple monks. You seem to have too good an impression of the immortal cultivators."
"Although there are righteous people who truly care about mortals in the Mortal Zhen Palace that I established, most of them joined because they wanted to enjoy the shade under the big tree."
"They seem to be friendly to mortals and even use magic to cure diseases, but that's just because the organization has issued a task of using magic to cure diseases so that they can get benefits and rewards."
"More than 90% of immortal cultivators still regard mortals as ants. Even if thousands of mortals die, they will only lament and stain their eyes without any sympathy. Some monks who have practiced evil arts even regard mortals as ants. The materials used for cultivation are like the water and fertilizer used to water the soil.”
Looking at Han Li, who had a solemn expression, Jiang Yun paused and continued: "Actually, the world of immortality is very cruel. For treasures, spiritual herbs and other resources, immortality cultivators fight each other."
"Furthermore, the emphasis of cultivating immortals is to eliminate the roots without leaving any hidden dangers. Therefore, they will kill all the enemies at every turn. The cruelty is even worse than that of mortals. If you step into the world of cultivating immortals in the future, remember not to be naive. Heart!"
Han Li cupped his fists and saluted Jiang Yun, and said seriously: "Thank you, senior, for the tip. Han Li will definitely remember it in his heart and never forget it!"
Jiang Yun nodded, slowly flew up, then turned around and fled away.
"You must not mention your encounter with me today to anyone. Little friend Han, if you set foot in the world of immortal cultivation in the future, you can come to Tainan Valley and show this token to Tainan Valley Fan Tower. You will be treated politely."
Jiang Yun's voice reached the ears of the three people, and at the same time, a white jade token fell from the air and floated into Han Li's hand.
The three of them saluted in the direction where Jiang Yun disappeared. Among them, Han Li vowed in his heart to return the green bottle to Jiang Yun.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
I won't accept the green bottle, because Jiang Yun can't use it if I give it to him, but he can find a way to use it.
