Wu Bingjie quickly changed the subject: "Let's go!"
Lin Xiaodong smiled and asked: "Aren't you going to meet Qiao Chuqing and Qiao Chuxin?"
Wu Bingjie shook her head: "When you meet Master Yunju, you have met them all."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Then let's go."
The two turned into two rainbow lights, one red and one white, and flew to the Bixia Sect.
Wen Yunmei came out to greet them. When she saw Lin Xiaodong and Wu Bingjie coming together, she raised her eyebrows and saluted, "I've met Senior Sister Wu and Elder Lin."
Lin Xiaodong and Wu Bingjie returned the favor, followed Wen Yunmei to the living room to serve tea, and Wu Yaozi came to receive them in person.
Lin Xiaodong took out the Dacheng Baodan and said to Wuyaozi: "Last time I treated that woman, I took one of your Bixia sect pills. I'm here to return one of her pills today."
Wu Yaozi waved his hand: "Elder Lin, you don't have to be polite."
He glanced at it and saw that what Lin Xiaodong was holding was the Yunyang Sect's Dacheng Baodan. He couldn't help but be startled, and then politely said: "Elder Lin doesn't have to do this, it's just a simple effort."
Lin Xiaodong waved his hand and said: "Master, I will never let your help go to waste. If you don't accept it, I won't have the nerve to come back next time."
After Wu Yaozi heard this, he picked up the elixir and looked at it, and then asked Wu Bingjie: "Master nephew, is this the Dacheng treasure elixir of your Yunyang sect?"
Wu Bingjie smiled: "Exactly."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Senior Sister Wu has something to ask the real person for advice. I am borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha."
Who wouldn't be greedy after more than ten years of cultivation? Wu Yaozi stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Elder Lin, and thank you, Master Nephew Wu, for sending my greetings to your teacher."
The three of them sat down again, and Wu Yaozi asked, "Is there anything I can do for my nephew Wu?"
Wu Bingjie stretched out her hand and said, "Please take a look, real person."
Wu Yaozi poked his head out and saw a soaring sound, and a flame the size of a soybean ignited in Wu Bingjie's palm, the same color as the noon sun.
The temperature in the entire hall suddenly rose, and Wu Yaozi praised: "The Taoism of the Yunyang Sect is indeed extraordinary!"
Wu Bingjie put away the fire and said with a helpless smile: "This is not a spell from our Yunyang Sect. This spiritual fire is the True Fire of the Sun, given to me by Elder Lin."
After hearing this, Wen Yunmei raised her head and stared at Wu Bingjie for a while.
Wuyaozi nodded to Lin Xiaodong: "That's it."
Wu Bingjie said: "Although the spiritual fire is good, it is too intense and cannot be contained, so it cannot exert its power better."
"I came here today to ask the real person, what is the most fire-resistant wood in the world?"
Wu Yaozi nodded, stroked his beard, and said: "There are many fire-resistant woods, and the most heat-resistant among them is maritime pine."
"This kind of tree grows in the South China Sea. Local people use its wood to make pipes, and they will not break after being burned for several years."
Wu Bingjie stood up excitedly: "Can you withstand the true fire of the sun?"
Wu Yaozi smiled: "I don't know about this."
Lin Xiaodong also stood up: "It seems that I am going to take a trip to the South China Sea."
Wu Bingjie hesitated, looked up at Lin Xiaodong, blinked and said, "Do you really want to go?
This transaction will probably take a few days."
Lin Xiaodong said: "It doesn't matter, I want to escape. I can go back and forth in a moment."
Wu Bingjie clapped her hands happily: "Then let's go!"
Lin Xiaodong said goodbye to Wu Yaozi and Wen Yunmei: "Thank you so much, Master Wen. I'm sorry for bothering you, so I'll take my leave now."
Wen Yunmei sent the two of them outside the gate. They walked for a long time and still stood on the mountain field in a daze.
Lin Xiaodong and Wu Bingjie came to the foot of the mountain and faced each other. Lin Xiaodong said: "Sister, give me your hand."
Wu Bingjie lowered her head and said shyly: "You just want to hold my hand."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand obediently.
Lin Xiaodong stretched out his hand and took it, feeling cold and silky, completely different from underwater.
Wu Bingjie also had heart palpitations, but before she could react, the world suddenly spun, as if she had no body. When she regained her balance, the scenery in front of her had changed.
The sun is rising, the wind is calm, the dew in the forest has not faded away, but the white sand under your feet has begun to warm, the sea water is blue, and the sky is blue.
Wu Bingjie cheered excitedly: "Wow, so beautiful!"
Lin Xiaodong smiled: "We are here to do business."
The two walked on the beach for a while before returning to the forest on the shore. After walking for a while, they found the sea pine tree, which was very conspicuous among the trees and coconut trees.
It looks like an ordinary pine tree. Wu Bingjie asked curiously: "Is it really so resistant to burning?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "You will know if you try it."
He stretched out his hand to pry out a pine branch, but it didn't break. Wu Bingjie covered her mouth and smiled when she saw this.
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Well, it seems to be very resistant to burning."
Wu Bingjie took out the magic sword, flashed the cold light, cut off a section, repaired it briefly, released the true sun fire, and landed on the branch.
A puff of white smoke curled up, and the branches immediately turned black, and were soon burned into a pit.
Wu Bingjie shook her head in disappointment: "It still doesn't work!"
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. It seems that the five elements are too strong, which is not a good thing."
Wu Bingjie pouted: "What should we do now?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Go back to Wu Yaozi and ask again."
Wu Bingjie put away the spiritual fire, threw the sea pine branches on the ground, and followed Lin Xiaodong back to Bixia Sect.
The two of them went to Wu Yaozi's residence with Wen Yunmei. Wu Bingjie shrugged and said, "Sir, no matter how resistant the sea pine tree is to burning, it will be burned sooner or later."
Wu Yaozi thought for a while and asked: "Why does Master Wu have to put the fire on the wood?"
Wu Bingjie looked at Lin Xiaodong and said, "This is Elder Lin's idea. Use wood to make fire and nourish the spiritual fire."
Wu Yaozi nodded, blinked, and said: "When wood makes fire, the wood must be consumed. No matter how fire-resistant it is, it can't help but burn day and night."
"Although Elder Lin's idea is in line with the principle of the five elements' creation and restraint, he does not understand the virtue of the wood element."
Lin Xiaodong leaned forward and saluted: "Please give me some advice."
Wu Yaozi said: "The virtue of wood is based on procreation and nourishment, transforming and nurturing all things, so that it can grow and develop endlessly."
"Fire can start a prairie fire, but wildfire cannot be burned out. It will be rekindled by the spring breeze. The trees under the fire are like the fuel at the bottom of the cauldron. The fire will not be extinguished until the fuel is exhausted."
Lin Xiaodong suddenly realized: "What we are looking for should not be fire-resistant wood, but wood that is tenacious, sustainable, and can provide fuel for the spiritual fire!"
Wu Yaozi nodded and smiled: "That's right!"
Wu Bingjie asked: "What kind of wood do you think is most suitable?"
Wuyaozi pondered for a moment and said: "In my opinion, Junzivine is the most suitable!"
Wu Bingjie was overjoyed and handed over her hand: "Thank you so much for your guidance!"
Lin Xiaodong said goodbye to Wu Yaozi and Wen Yunmei, and followed Wu Bingjie down the mountain impatiently.
Wu Bingjie said: "The Junzi Vine grows in the north of Congling. After walking a long way, we still have to go back to Yaodi Road."
The two of them went all the way north, out of Congling, to the north of Yaodidao, a plain with forests and wheat fields intertwined, and the scenery was magnificent.
In the evening, we came to a dense forest. The setting sun was almost parallel to the ground, turning into pillars of light in the forest, alternating between light and dark, just like a dream.
