After hearing this, Liang Yan showed a trace of hesitation on his face. He didn't know that Yuan Jiuling's human master had once made him swear a poisonous oath not to take the initiative to attack the human race, and he secretly thought:
"This Yuan Jiuling's strength is obviously much higher than mine, but now he doesn't use force to snatch my storage bag, but just uses this kind of transaction to negotiate peace with me. This can be said to be the most benevolent thing. I
If I just shirk it, I'm afraid that I will cross his bottom line and go too far. What's more, he dares to hand over his own relic prototype, so why don't I dare to swear a poisonous oath on Tiance Lu?"
Thinking of this, Liang Yan immediately smiled and said: "In that case, I won't refuse anymore! I just hope that after the matter is settled, the senior can say a few nice words in front of the Valley Master and restore the boy's magical powers."
"Of course." Seeing his agreement, Yuan Jiuling immediately laughed and stretched out his hand to push "Tiance Lu" in front of Liang Yan.
Liang Yan followed what Yuan Jiuling said and made an oath of heaven in the Tian Ce Lu word for word. Only then did Yuan Jiuling hand the prototype of the relic into his hands. He seemed to want to say a few more words, but he saw the courtyard.
In mid-air outside, a green object suddenly flew over.
When Liang Yan saw him stop talking, he also followed his gaze and saw a palm-sized cyan butterfly fluttering in mid-air. However, every time the butterfly's wings flapped, he could faintly hear the sound.
There were several sounds of the machine turning.
"Hehe, it seems that the young lady is impatient with waiting and has sent this 'Bamboo Butterfly' to ask you to make alchemy." Yuan Jiuling chuckled, reached out and put Tiance Lu into his storage bag, and said to Liang Yan:
"Forget it, you go and help the young lady make elixirs first. But you must take this thing I told you to heart."
Liang Yan took the prototype of the relic into his arms and replied solemnly: "Senior Yuan, don't worry, I will definitely obey your instructions."
After hearing this, Yuan Jiuling nodded with great satisfaction. At this moment, the "bamboo butterfly" had flown in front of the two of them, flying up and down beside Liang Yan, looking like it was dancing gracefully.
Liang Yan took a closer look and realized that this cyan butterfly was actually made of green bamboo. It had a clever mechanism. From a distance, it looked just like a real butterfly.
Liang Yan was secretly surprised. After looking at it for a while, he asked Yuan Jiuling: "But I don't know where Miss Ning's alchemy room is?"
Yuan Jiuling waved his hand, pointed at the "bamboo butterfly" in mid-air and said lightly: "If you follow this bamboo butterfly, it will naturally lead the way for you. But I want to remind you, you can only follow the bamboo butterfly along the way.
You are not allowed to go to other areas without permission."
The bamboo butterfly seemed to have spirituality. As soon as Yuan Jiuling finished speaking, it flapped its wings in mid-air, bypassed the two of them and flew directly out of the courtyard. Liang Yan did not hesitate when he saw this, raised his steps and followed.
This man and Butterfly walked around the manor in the valley for a while. After about a cup of tea, Bamboo Butterfly took him to a large courtyard.
There is a unique building standing in the middle of the courtyard. It is shaped like a tripod and stands on the ground. The middle part looks like a full belly. It is obviously the alchemy room. There is a big opening in the middle of the alchemy room.
It seems to be the main entrance. A stone staircase only wide enough for one person hangs down from the main entrance to the ground.
Liang Yan secretly clicked his tongue and cursed: "Is this valley owner a little crazy? Why are the buildings in the valley so weird?"
However, he was slandering himself. He had something to ask for at the moment, but he didn't dare to say it outright. Seeing that the bamboo butterfly had fluttered its wings and flew into the main entrance of the alchemy room, he also climbed up the stone stairs and walked into the alchemy room.
.
As soon as Liang Yan entered the door, he saw two people sitting on the floor inside. One of them was naturally the Ning Wantang he knew, and the other was a seven or eight-year-old girl. She was thin and frail, and her face was pale.
Incomparable.
That was all, but Liang Yan had been practicing Taoism for seven or eight years, so he certainly didn't have the eyes of an ordinary person. He only took a brief glance and saw that the little girl was not a human at all, to be precise, she was a ghost child.
As the saying goes, people and ghosts have different paths. Even though Liang Yan is not an ordinary person, he can't help but look at Ning Wantang with a doubtful look, with a look of inquiry on his face.
"Don't look at me like that." Ning Wantang said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is the ghost master I mentioned to you before."
Liang Yan was slightly startled, and looked at the little girl again, but saw that her whole body was shrouded in a faint black energy, and it was impossible to see through her cultivation level. However, when he thought about it, the white ape before had already
She is a cultivator in the fake elixir realm. Since this little girl is as famous as her, she will not be any worse.
Thinking of this, he put away the strange look on his face. Although he was still a little embarrassed in his heart, he still slightly cupped his hands towards the little girl and said:
"I've met senior!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the little girl rolled on the ground with a scared look on her face, and then cowardly hid behind Ning Wantang.
Liang Yan didn't expect her to react like this, but he heard Ning Wantang chuckle and say, "Master Ghost, don't be afraid. This is a fellow Taoist who is here to help us make elixirs. He doesn't mean any harm."
Ning Wantang said, turning around and patting her on the back, and whispered a few words in her ear. The little girl's face softened slightly, and she walked out from behind Ning Wantang with some hesitation, and then crossed her legs again.
Sitting on the ground.
"Brother Liang, don't be surprised."
At this time, Ning Wantang explained to Liang Yan: "When Gui Yun'er was six years old, he was captured by a vicious ghost monk to practice martial arts because of his special constitution. And because his parents had an old relationship with my grandfather, they begged us to
When the Evil Doctor came to the Valley, my grandfather later took action and killed the ghost monk, but Gui Yun'er had already been drained of his soul and turned into a homeless ghost."
"My grandfather thought that she was young and pitiful, so he used his own secret technique to gather her lingering soul again, and taught her the secret technique of ghost cultivation. Gui Yun'er survived in another way. And this past period also
She is usually extremely afraid of strange monks from outside the valley, but it is not against Brother Liang alone."
"I see!"
Liang Yan nodded somewhat suddenly and said, "I didn't expect that Senior Gui Yun'er's life experience would be so miserable, but it was Liang who was abrupt."
His words made him feel a little compassionate. Although the so-called world is wonderful and wonderful, it also contains many dangers. Wasn't the reason why he embarked on the journey of cultivating immortality because of disasters falling from the sky?
However, Liang Yan thought about it again, and a strange look appeared on his face, and he thought to himself: "I didn't expect that the three masters of the evil doctor valley, wood, ape, and ghost, are actually not human beings! Their behavior is also the same.
Each has its own quirks, so it seems worthy of the word 'evil'!"
Thinking of this, Liang Yan became a little more curious about this Valley Master who had not shown up yet.
