The trip to the Death Forbidden Zone came back ten days earlier than expected.
After returning to Luochuan, Su Xiaofan took back the ice spirit stone first.
Su Xiaofan was slightly injured when he came into contact with thunder and lightning and later when he fought with a giant ape. He needed to borrow the energy from the spirit stone for treatment.
In fact, you can also use the repair value to repair it directly, but the price of one hundred points makes Su Xiaofan reluctant to part with it.
Now he has a total of 960 repair points saved. Except for the 30 points spent on the Sect Master's Token stored in his mind, Su Xiaofan is not willing to use the rest.
As long as he accumulates one thousand repair points, Su Xiaofan will be able to cultivate the entire three-flower gathering state's skills.
According to the previous experience of accumulating skills, this time's accumulating can directly push Su Xiaofan to the perfection of the three-flower gathering state, that is, he can practice Yin Shen.
There are many folk legends about the Yin God.
Tieguai Li, one of the Eight Immortals, is said to be a Yin spirit who left his body and failed to return to his physical body in time. As a result, he possessed a beggar and became a disabled person.
It can be seen that there are still many restrictions on the Yin Shen leaving the body.
But this does not hinder Su Xiaofan's inner yearning. Just imagine that the Yin Shen is out of the body, almost like an invisible person, but Su Xiaofan is a good boy and will not watch others doing eye-catching things.
After receiving the spiritual stone, Su Xiaofan took Duobao back to the villa for retreat.
As for the pieces of lightning-struck wood, they were left with Jing Shizhen. He said they still needed to be processed.
Eight days later, Su Xiaofan's injuries were gone, and after recovery, he felt that his meridians had become stronger.
Even Su Xiaofan was a little frightened by the energy contained in that small energy stone. He, his master, and Aunt Mei took turns using it, but they didn't see the energy inside decrease or dry up.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaofan became more and more yearning for the thunder energy stone on the giant ape's waist.
The true energy in Su Xiaofan's body was much purer than that of his master. The energy stone would be more effective when used on Aunt Mei and his master. After recovering from his injuries, Su Xiaofan sent them back.
Su Xiaofan wanted to discuss going to Qingcheng with his master. His idea was to forget about the party and just let him and Duobao enter the restricted area of Qingcheng.
"You want to take Duobao to Qingcheng?"
Jing Shizhen pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and said: "The Qingcheng restricted area is not simple either, but the extraordinary creatures inside are not hostile to us human cultivators."
"Master, do you mean that it will be hostile to Duobao?"
Su Xiaofan understood Jing Shizhen's words and immediately laughed bitterly. The reason Su Xiaofan wanted to bring Duobao into the Qingcheng restricted area was to keep Duobao inside and strive to evolve into an extraordinary creature.
From Su Xiaofan's point of view, as long as there is a stable restricted area for Duobao to live in, it is almost certain that he will evolve into an extraordinary creature.
Several other restricted areas seemed to be too dangerous, and the extraordinary creatures in the Qingcheng restricted area did not seem to be that aggressive, so Su Xiaofan made this decision.
"One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers."
Jing Shizhen said: "But you can take Duobao there. If the extraordinary creatures in the Qingcheng restricted area also have a strong territorial awareness, just let Duobao come out."
Jing Shizhen's words were full of emotion, because one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. This saying can not only be applied to Duobao, but even he feels deeply after being driven away by the giant ape.
"Xiaofan, what do you think about us unlocking the seal of Shuangmen Village?"
Jing Shizhen said: "I can compensate Tong Dongjie, one billion, which is enough to make up for his previous losses."
Jing Shizhen has been thinking about her own cultivation issues during this period.
It is very important for him to have a stable cultivation environment, which is related to whether he can advance to the next level.
"Master, if you want to practice cultivation, why do you need to break the seal?"
Su Xiaofan said speechlessly: "You only sealed the space crack at that time, but did not eliminate it. The space crack itself is still there, and you can definitely practice inside the seal."
"You don't understand. My seal is very powerful. Once a person enters, most of his or her cultivation will be shackled."
Jing Shizhen shook his head. He had never thought about this problem, but he knew the formation he had arranged. Jing Shizhen knew that this method was not feasible.
"It's better to wait, Master. Maybe the Qingcheng restricted area will allow you to enter and practice."
Su Xiaofan didn't really want Jing Shizhen to break the seal.
Space cracks are a nightmare for the environment and ordinary people. Sealing them is a matter of immeasurable merit. How can we go back and reverse history?
"Okay, let's take a look and talk."
Jing Shizhen waved her hands with a headache and said: "I have never seen such a powerful extraordinary creature when I went to the restricted area before. It's really unlucky."
"Ahem, Master, I have something I don't know whether I should say or not." Su Xiaofan coughed twice.
"What are you talking about? Tell me, there is nothing you can't say to your master."
Jing Shizhen stared, she was the kind of person who couldn't agree with others' opinions.
"Master, you haven't seen extraordinary creatures before, maybe your cultivation level is too weak!"
Su Xiaofan said: "I guess the extraordinary creatures in the restricted area do not feel the threat and are too lazy to come out to deal with you..."
"You brat, what are you talking about?"
Jing Shizhen was amused by her disciple, "I think not only will you not be able to find a wife in the future, but with your mouth, you will probably even blow away your friends."
"Hey, Master, it's okay. Why are you bringing this up?"
Su Xiaofan was not happy, "You have a Taoist companion as the co-author, right? I don't know what Aunt Mei likes about you."
"You dare to arrange it even for me? You are a coward."
Jing Shizhen hit Su Xiaofan on the head, but smiled on her face, "You are not qualified to judge as a single person. Let's wait until we find a wife."
"Master, you are not particular about it."
Su Xiaofan received a critical hit of 10,000 points. What's wrong with the single dog? He didn't eat your rice.
"Okay, get out of here. Just arrive in Qingcheng on the 20th. Go to Qingcheng Hotel and check in directly with your ID card."
Jing Shizhen has not been idle these days. He has reported the itinerary and the list of personnel.
In fact, it is simple. Xiaoyao Sect, two people, Aunt Mei has her own sect, they are not included in their group.
"You and Aunt Mei won't go in my car?"
Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment. He thought that Master was going with him.
"Why should I follow your car?"
Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan strangely, "How fast can we go there by plane? It only takes two hours. Why don't we have to drive for two days with you? There is a big light bulb on the road!"
"I'm just a bitch, why are you asking me this round?"
Su Xiaofan, who was fed another mouthful of food, received a light slap on his face.
It was impossible to survive this day, so Su Xiaofan planned to buy a supercar later, and then park it in front of the school and put a bottle of green tea in the car. This was what people taught on the Internet.
"But you still have to drive there. If the lightning strikes the wood, you still have to put it in your car and pull it away."
Jing Shizhen arranged a job for his disciple. He couldn't take those few things with him by plane. As for the consignment, forget it. Jing Shizhen would be heartbroken if he dropped one.
…
In fact, Su Xiaofan still likes to drive long distances, and a little fatigue is nothing to him. Listening to the roar of the engine, looking at the scenery along the way, and then playing the song "Once Upon a Time", it feels a bit like walking across the world with a sword.
.
But looking at Duobao lying on the passenger seat, Su Xiaofan's mood suddenly turned bad.
It is said that beautiful women with beautiful cars, beautiful heroes and many treasures around them made Su Xiaofan realize that he was still single.
The distance from Luochuan to Qingcheng is actually more than a thousand kilometers.
When Su Xiaofan drives, he saves time not only to refuel but also to go to the toilet.
So we set off at six o'clock in the morning, and by around five o'clock in the afternoon, Su Xiaofan's car had already entered the parking lot of the designated hotel.
After Duobao jumped out of the car, Su Xiaofan picked up a simple backpack, locked the car, and went to check in Shi Shiran.
Su Xiaofan threw the few lightning logs on the car. It was safer to put those things in the car than to carry them into the hotel. Hiding them would attract other people's attention.
Walking to the main entrance of the hotel, Su Xiaofan saw a banner hanging at the door with the words "Warmly celebrate the successful convening of the Laozi Cultural Research Society".
"Laozi Culture Research Association?"
Su Xiaofan really didn't know that this exchange meeting was under this name, but after thinking about it, he felt relieved. I am a great local god in China, and all current cultivators are more or less related to me.
Outside the hotel, there were many people looking for friends, and Su Xiaofan found that he was not the only one bringing pets.
There was a young man in his twenties, holding a slender-waisted dog with slender limbs, standing there and looking around triumphantly.
There was also an old man in his sixties, with a little monkey squatting on his shoulder. Both the monkey and the old man had a cigarette in their mouths. They looked very much like the two men.
With a quick glance, Su Xiaofan knew that those two people must have come to attend the Laozi Cultural Exchange Meeting, because they both had zhenqi fluctuations in their bodies.
However, the cultivation level of the two of them is not very high. The young one has just mastered the sense of Qi, and the old man has just entered the Great Zhoutian. This is probably the level of cultivation he will have in this life.
Entering the hotel lobby, there is a row of staff sitting there on the right side of the lobby.
After looking at the words "Laozi Cultural Research Association" hanging on it, Su Xiaofan walked over. There was a big cat beside him, which was quite eye-catching.
However, in this hotel, Su Xiaofan was not the only one bringing pets, but no one came to ask anything.
But everyone who sees Duobao will look at it a few more times, trying to tell whether it is a leopard or a cat.
After reporting his name, someone used a computer to check Su Xiaofan's information and asked him to sign the sign-in book. The staff handed the room card and a bag to Su Xiaofan.
"Two people are sharing a room for the time being. The stay is for a week. All meals are buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner, on the second floor of the hotel."
The staff explained the food and accommodation to Su Xiaofan in detail. As soon as he heard the first sentence, Su Xiaofan frowned.
Are you kidding me? I'm a rich man now.
If I'm a pauper, you can let me live in a Datong shop with eight people.
But now that my brother is also the current head of the Xiaoyao Sect, it would be shameful to live in a shared room between two people.
"Ahem, um, can I get a room upgrade?"
Su Xiaofan interrupted the staff member, "I snore at night, grind my teeth, and sleepwalk and bite people. For the safety of my roommate, do you think you should arrange a separate room for me?"
"Sorry, it's all arranged in advance, we don't have the authority."
The staff's attitude was very good, but they didn't say anything.
"Okay, I'll give you the room card. I'll go get a room myself."
Is Su Xiaofan the kind of person who cares about such a small amount of money? After returning the room card, he took Tiger Cat straight to the front desk.
"The single rooms are all full, only the supreme suite is available? Six thousand eight hundred and eighty-one nights?"
Su Xiaofan took out a credit card and said: "First pay the room fee for one week, then pay the deposit of 10,000, and then refund the excess or make up for the less."
The card couldn't be his own. Su Xiaofan had never applied for a credit card. If it was his card, how could Su Xiaofan be so generous.
Aunt Mei felt bad about taking Su Xiaofan's spiritual stone, so she forced it on Su Xiaofan. According to Aunt Mei, within the limit of 50 million, Su Xiaofan could use it as he pleased.
After completing the formalities, Su Xiaofan took Duobao to the room with the bag given by the conference team.
The suite is different. It has a layout of two bedrooms and one living room, and the living room is directly converted into a small conference room, with an area of about 1,780 square meters.
Su Xiaofan took out his mobile phone and made a few calls.
Master's phone was turned off, and he was probably still enjoying the world of two people on the plane.
As for Su Xiaoxiao and the others, their flight was around eight o'clock in the evening, and it was almost early morning when they arrived here. Su Xiaofan didn't say that he had arrived, so as to save the girl from running back in the middle of the night.
With nothing to do, Su Xiaofan dug through the bag given by the conference team.
There are three things in the bag, a certificate of participation hanging around the neck, a book of information for participating in the conference, and a thermos cup, which is obviously a souvenir of the conference.
Su Xiaofan picked up the notice to attend the meeting and read it.
The meeting lasted for three days in total. From the fourth day onwards, it was written to visit the beautiful scenery of Qingcheng.
Su Xiaofan knew in his heart that the so-called beautiful scenery was probably a restricted area in Qingcheng. The words "voluntary participation" were marked on the back of this day's itinerary, and those who participated needed to report to the conference affairs team in advance.
As for the previous meeting location, it was also very unique. This meeting was not held indoors, but at the top of Qingcheng.
Everyone in the world knows about Qingcheng, but they don’t know much about Qingcheng Peak.
Qingcheng Peak refers to the highest mountain among all the nearby mountains. Legend has it that Lu Dongbin practiced Taoism there and left behind the legacy of the Sword Immortal.
Su Xiaofan had never been to Dachuan Province, but he was a little strange about the time and location of the meeting.
It doesn’t matter that the location is on the main peak of Qingcheng. Maybe the person in charge of the organizer is a fan of Jin Daxia and made reference to the Huashan Sword Theory.
However, the meeting officially started at 6:30 in the morning. Su Xiaofan felt that the organizer probably wanted everyone to get up early to watch the sunrise.
Su Xiaofan was too lazy to pay attention to so much. After resting in the room for a while, he took Duobao to the buffet.
"Hey, buddy, are you a cat or a tiger? You are really domineering."
At the door of the cafeteria, Su Xiaofan met the young man holding a thin-waisted dog, but his dog was a little stretched on the crotch. After meeting Duobao, he did not dare to take a step into the restaurant despite the young man's strong pull.
"What a shame, how could I remember to bring you out?"
The young man was very angry. The dog was so embarrassing to him that he was actually afraid of a cat.
"It's not a cat or a tiger, it's a tiger cat..."
Su Xiaofan found it interesting and couldn't help but laugh. When he was a child, his family had a slender dog. This dog was very good at catching rabbits. As long as it saw it, it would definitely not run away.
"Okay Duobao, this is not our territory." Su Xiaofan rubbed Duobao's neck to make him stop threatening the slender-waisted dog.
"You tiger cat is awesome!"
Seeing his dog standing up tremblingly, the young man raised his thumbs at Su Xiaofan, "My surname is Dong. I don't understand the names. I don't know what you call me buddy."
"Don't you understand?"
When Su Xiaofan heard this name, he was a little dumbfounded. Did he understand it or not?
"My name is Su Xiaofan, you can just call me Xiaofan."
Su Xiaofan thinks this guy is quite interesting.
"I'm from the Dong family. I didn't know you were Xiaofan..."
Dong Baibai clasped his hands into his fists as a courtesy, but felt a little embarrassed and put his hands down again.
"What age have we been and are still doing this? I would say that the dregs of these times should be abolished as soon as possible."
As a young man in the new era, Dong Dong doesn't feel that those ancient rituals are just for fun. Isn't it sick to wear a suit and salute?
"Xiaoyao Sect, Su Xiaofan!"
Seeing that the other party reported his family name, Su Xiaofan had no choice but to bite the bullet and reported the name of the Xiaoyao Sect, even though he had no idea what the Dong family was about.
"I've admired you for a long time... Hey, buddy, I've never heard of your Xiaoyao Sect."
Dong Wanshuan is also a person of character. Before he could finish his greeting, he interrupted himself. He had admired the Xiaoyao Sect for a long time. Dong Wanshuan had even heard of Xiaoyao Great Immortal Ding Chunqiu.
"Same, same, Brother Dong, I haven't heard of the Dong family either."
This awkward chat made Su Xiaofan almost sweat. They looked at each other and both of them couldn't help but laugh. On the contrary, the distance between them became much closer.
The two of them entered the restaurant while talking. Perhaps someone had specifically told them so, and the waiter did not stop the two of them with their pets.
"Thankfully, I am bragging about how powerful the Dong family is."
Dong Bubai was very familiar with him. He put his arm around Su Xiaofan's shoulder and said, "But I look very familiar to you. I went out to drink with people when I first came here. If anything happens to you later, give me Dong Bubai's name."
That’s fine.”
"Okay, Brother Dong, if something happens, I'll show you your sign."
Su Xiaofan laughed. There is no need to talk about cultivation among young people. Anyway, no one of his peers who participated in this meeting had a higher cultivation than him.
"By the way, Xiaofan, where did you get this tiger cat?"
Dong Buzhuan winked at Su Xiaofan and said, "Brother, before I came here, I wanted to find a good dog, but I searched all over the country and found this dog, which is just what I wanted. Brother, you are so awesome. You lead this domineering cat."
As the saying goes, comparing people to others will lead to death, and comparing goods to goods will lead to throwing away.
When he first came here, Dong didn't think his slender-waisted dog was very powerful, but when he saw the tiger cat, he had the urge to kill the dog and eat its meat.
"I raised it since I was little. I didn't know what breed it was at the time. I didn't expect it to grow so big."
Su Xiaofan was talking nonsense casually. After hanging out in the antique market for several years, Su Xiaofan, apart from having bad things to say about women when he saw them, could only talk nonsense when dealing with such a young man.
"By the way, Brother Dong, why did you choose this name?"
Su Xiaofan asked out his curiosity and said that since Dong didn't understand, he was not his client, so there was no need to hold back what he was saying.
"Hey, don't mention it, it's all my business..."
Mentioning this, Dong Wanshuang couldn't help but slap his thigh. He was deceived by his own father before he was born, and he was deceived by his own father for more than 20 years.
Dong didn't understand that his father was very good at teaching others. Ever since he was young, he always liked to use a catchphrase when speaking.
This mantra is "understand or not". As long as a sentence does not include "understand or not", Dong's father will feel very awkward, as if the sentence is not complete.
Later, when the son was born and decided to name him, Dong's father had an idea and simply named his son Dong Baibai.
Now Dong's father felt comfortable, but Dong didn't understand that he was in serious trouble.
Whenever Dong's father spoke, if he didn't understand the words, he would shout his son's name loudly.
After shouting, Dong didn't understand and passed away without hesitation. Unexpectedly, his father was fine at all, just for shouting those three words.
Later, Dong didn't understand when he got a little older and understood some things, so he came back to his senses. For a while, when he heard the words "Don't understand" again in his ears, he pretended not to have heard them.
But that doesn't work, because Dong's father sometimes really calls his son. If the son ignores me, doesn't he want to rebel? Then he will be beaten immediately.
After more than ten years of beatings, Dong Wanshuang actually developed a unique skill.
That is, as long as he hears these three words, he can tell whether it is calling him or his father is talking.
"Hey, just laugh if you want, I'm used to it."
After telling his tragic history, Dong Buzhuang looked at Su Xiaofan holding back a smile, and he had a bitter smile on his face at first.
"Brother Dong, I really admire your dad!"
Su Xiaofan laughed. Fortunately, his father kept a low profile and named himself Xiaofan. If he had been named Su Bufan, he would probably have had twice as many fights since childhood.
"Why do you admire my dad?"
Dong looked at Su Xiaofan without knowing why.
"Does your dad understand that this is a catchphrase?" Su Xiaofan asked.
"Yes, he will feel uncomfortable if you don't say a word." Dong Minghua nodded.
"Then do you think he will get beaten if he tells your grandpa that he understands?"
Su Xiaofan burst out laughing. Since ancient times, things have always been stewed to make tofu, and one thing will bring down another. This family relationship is also a food chain where the big fish eats the small fish.
"Hey, yes, no wonder my dad was as honest as a grandson when he met my grandpa and didn't say a word."
Hearing what Su Xiaofan said, Dong Wanshuang suddenly came to his senses. It turned out that his father didn't speak to his grandfather because he was afraid of being beaten for using his catchphrase.
Please vote, brothers, I don’t want banknotes, I want monthly passes and recommended tickets!!!
