When Master Xuanhe walked out of the quiet room, a ray of light happened to break through the air and land in the small courtyard.
"Master, my junior brother has successfully built the foundation!" Qu Mei put away her flying sword and quickly saluted to report.
Master Xuanhe held a fly whisk in his hand, nodded slightly and said, "Master already knows about this matter. What you just saw and heard must not be told outside."
Qu Mei was stunned for a moment and lowered her hands and said: "Master, don't worry, this disciple will definitely not talk too much."
"Well, you are the senior sister. You should take care of him more and urge him to practice more. Especially when it comes to the Alchemy Academy, you should always remind him that he is still young and has not restrained his playfulness. Remember not to indulge."
Qu Mei recalled the previous two experiences of eavesdropping in the corner. She hesitated for a moment and lowered her head with a blushing face: "Master, I found that the younger junior brother and the thirteenth junior sister have a very good relationship. I wonder if the master and the supreme elder have any other ideas?
"
Master Xuanhe was stunned for a moment, then a strange smile slowly appeared on his face and said: "I can't get involved in this matter, the two of them are still young, so let everything go as it pleases!"
Qu Mei couldn't help but murmured in her heart: "You're so small, these two guys are so big. They've already done what they should and shouldn't do. You don't care. Sooner or later, I'll have a bunch of young disciples for you to take care of."
However, she did not dare to say anything about it, so she could only salute and say: "Master, my disciple's foundation building realm has been stabilized now, and my junior brother has also succeeded in foundation building. There hasn't been much going on at the mountain gate recently. I want to go down the mountain to Yelang Ancient City."
One trip.”
Master Xuanhe sighed and said, "Have you not let go of that matter yet? It's been eight years."
Qu Mei's eyes suddenly turned slightly red and she said: "Fourth Senior Brother disappeared to save me. I must go find out more. I always have a hunch that Fourth Senior Brother is not dead and must still be trapped there!"
Master Xuanhe was silent for a long time, and sighed again: "Since you have always been thinking about it, then go there, otherwise it will always be a shortcoming in your Taoist heart, and you will not be able to achieve perfection or relief, and there will be no possibility of forming any elixir in the future.
Chance."
Qu Mei suddenly fell to the ground and choked up: "This disciple knows that his qualifications are limited, and he never thought that he would be able to form a pill in this life. Even if he builds a foundation, it is all thanks to the Taiyuan Soul-Entering Pill refined by my junior brother. Since I entered the Taiyuan Sect, I have been praised by my master.
It is only through the diligent teaching that I have achieved today's cultivation. It is difficult to repay the death of a disciple who was so kind and virtuous. If the disciple never comes back, he will not be able to fulfill his filial piety in the future. Please take care of me, Master."
Master Xuanhe twisted his beard and shook his head and said: "The relationship between master and disciple is just like clear water, light and true. There is no need for you to repay. Since you have a clear intention, the poor will no longer stop you. Remember to protect yourself. No matter what happens when you go there,
If there is no result, it is best to return to the mountain as soon as possible. If you are in danger, you can send me a message..."
As he spoke, Master Xuanhe waved his hand, and three jade talismans floated in front of Qu Mei.
"This white jade talisman contains a mark of my soul. If you encounter a critical moment, it can trigger a message to be sent back. If I have time, you may go to rescue me. The other two jade talismans, cyan and yellow, were made by me respectively.
Two third-grade talismans, one for attack and one for defense, may save your life in an emergency. As for the elixir magic weapon, you can go to the elixir academy to find it yourself, Pindao can only help you so much right now!"
Qu Mei's tears rolled down her face, she put away the three jade talismans, bowed to the ground three times and said, "Thank you, Master!"
"Well, go ahead and be careful on the road!"
"Master, take care, disciple, please leave!"
Qu Mei stood up and exited the small courtyard, wiped the tears on her face, then jumped into the air and headed towards the Alchemy Courtyard.
In the alchemy courtyard, Ninth Senior Brother and the young nephew Su Zhao whom Xu Chen picked up on the road were still picking up the elixirs all over the floor.
Xu Chen had already finished building the foundation when he returned to the mountain, but they had not yet sorted out the treasures that Xu Chen had brought back.
Zhao Xuan was sitting in the corner, holding jade slips and storage bags in her hands. While helping to clean up, she kept recording the names and quantities of elixirs on the jade slips for inventory registration and inquiry.
When Qu Mei came in, the three of them were all busy.
"Senior Sister Seventh came just in time, hurry up and help... Hey, why are you crying?" Senior Brother Ninth saw Qu Mei while he was busy, and he was surprised, happy and surprised at the same time.
Qu Mei glared at Senior Brother Ninth and said, "Which of your eyes saw me crying? I'm so happy. I just succeeded in building the foundation."
"What?" Zhao Xuan, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly exclaimed and jumped up.
The elixir in Brother Ninth's hand was scattered all over the floor. After being stunned for a long time, he came back to his senses and shook his head vigorously: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. It's been less than two hours since I returned to the mountain. How is it possible?
It took me three days to build the foundation so quickly!"
"I'm going to see my junior brother!" Zhao Xuan hurriedly dropped the jade slip and storage bag, ran out of the room and quickly left with her sword.
Senior Brother Ninth also wanted to follow, but Qu Mei held him back and said: "Little Junior Sister has gone, of course the two of them have intimate conversations, so why are you going in such a hurry?"
Ninth Senior Brother was stunned for a moment and nodded: "That's true, but Senior Sister, I found that you are very unusual today?"
Qu Mei was furious and gave the Ninth Senior Brother a slap in the face and said: "Which of your eyes sees something wrong with me? By the way, I have to go out, so hurry up and get me some elixir."
Ninth Senior Brother suddenly realized and pointed at Qu Mei and said: "I understand, you just want to take advantage of the absence of the Third Elder and the Junior Brother to fight against the autumn wind. However, I am only temporarily in charge of the Alchemy Academy. There is no use for you to find me unless
Grab it yourself..."
As soon as Qu Mei heard that she went to the warehouse at the back, the Ninth Senior Brother glared at the confused young nephew Su Zhao next to him and said: "You also saw it, I can't beat the Seventh Senior Sister, he went in and grabbed it himself."
Su Zhao quickly nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice and whispered: "Seventh Sister's Taoism is profound and she is indeed very powerful. Even just looking at her makes my legs tremble."
The Ninth Senior Brother immediately patted Su Zhao on the shoulder with a serious face and said: "Well, children can be taught. With the inheritance of our Taiyuan Sect, the future will be bright. You stay here and continue to collect the elixirs. I will go and see
Look at your little uncle Xu Chen."
After saying that, Brother Ninth ran out of the room, his sword whizzing away.
After a full two moments, Qu Mei came out of the warehouse and saw Su Zhao alone. She frowned and threw him a jade slip and said: "This is the record of the elixir I took away. You can keep it for future reference. Ruruo San."
When the elders ask, you just say you don't know."
"Yes, yes, Seventh Senior Aunt, please go slowly. The disciple will definitely hand it over to Ninth Senior Uncle!" Su Zhao hurriedly saluted respectfully and agreed, and Qu Mei proudly walked out of the Alchemy Academy and left quickly.
Su Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered: "I originally thought that the master was unreliable enough, but I didn't expect that these uncles and aunts on the mountain are even more unreliable. None of them are normal, and I don't know the seventh aunt."
How many elixirs were taken away?"
As he spoke, he looked at the jade slips, but since he had not yet started practicing Qi, he had no way of knowing. He could only shrug and put them away, and then continued to sort out the elixirs.
…
In the medicine garden waterfall pool, Xu Chen was naked and taking a bath.
Bloody dirt and scabs dyed half of the pool red.
Today's foundation building process was full of twists and turns, but fortunately, thanks to his ingenuity and ingenuity in the face of danger, he succeeded in the end without any danger.
The only thing he regretted was that he wasted an extra foundation-building elixir.
Now, while he felt comfortable and refreshed, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
That's why his foundation-building process was so difficult. In the end, he relied on the white energy refined from the Taixu Demon Refining Technique to forcefully break through the flesh and blood of the acupoints, and he took this opportunity to break open the acupoints and successfully build the foundation.
But the Thirteenth Senior Sister Zhao Xuan does not have the Blue Light Vase and Taixu Demon Refining Technique, nor does she have a powerful and stable soul and vitality like her own. I am afraid that foundation building will be very troublesome by then.
Although he can also help to enter the white energy when protecting the law, after all, it is not his own body and he cannot see the meridians and acupuncture points on her body, so he absolutely cannot help open the acupoints and can only rely on her own efforts.
Since then, it is still unknown whether the Thirteenth Senior Sister can successfully build the foundation.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a green ray of light coming through the sky. Soon Zhao Xuan sheathed her sword and stood by the waterfall pool, her face full of surprise and at the same time her expression was extremely weird.
"Senior sister, why are you here?" Xu Chen quickly squatted in the water and asked awkwardly.
Zhao Xuan curled her lips and said, "What's there to hide? I heard from Senior Sister Seven that you succeeded in building the foundation, and the speed was quite fast. I came here specially to have a look!"
Xu Chen smiled dryly and said, "I thought senior sister was here to bring me food."
Zhao Xuan glared and said: "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat. You don't ask me to help you protect the law for such a big thing as building a foundation. If the seventh senior sister hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known about it."
Xu Chen could only smile bitterly and said: "Senior Sister just left when she was angry. I thought it might take several days to build the foundation, so I asked Senior Sister Seven to help me take care of it. I didn't expect it to be so fast. Senior Sister, you
Turn away first, I want to get up and get dressed."
Zhao Xuan's cheeks suddenly turned red, she snorted coldly and turned around and said, "I just went to the Alchemy Academy to help sort out the elixirs you brought back. I didn't think you were free just after you came back, so I didn't appreciate it at all."
Xu Chen climbed ashore, regained his strength, evaporated all the water on his body, took out a set of clothes from the black gold bracelet, put it on and said with a smile: "So that's it, I won't let senior sister help in vain, I will give it to you later."
A bottle of spiritual flower dew..."
Just as the two were talking, a subtle white light suddenly burst through the air, and a jade slip hung in front of Xu Chen.
Xu Chen grabbed the jade slip in surprise, and when he took a look with his spiritual sense, he suddenly said with a strange expression: "It's a letter from the Seventh Senior Sister. She said she was going to Yelang Ancient City and asked me to take good care of the master. This Yelang Ancient City
Where on earth is it? It’s so mysterious and mysterious that it feels like I’ll never come back…”
"What? Senior Sister Seven said she was going to Yelang Ancient City?" Zhao Xuan suddenly exclaimed and turned around.
"Senior Sister Seven said so, you can see for yourself!" Xu Chen threw the jade slip to Zhao Xuan, then quickly put on his clothes, casually pulled a grass stem and tied up his loose hair.
Zhao Xuan quickly finished reading the jade slips and was stunned for a long time before saying: "It seems that the seventh senior sister still hasn't let go of the fourth senior brother's matter. I'm afraid it's not safe for her to go alone."
Xu Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be that Fourth Senior Brother disappeared in Yelang Ancient City?"
Zhao Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, but it has been eight years. At that time, the fourth senior brother was only in the middle stage of the Kaiyuan Realm. How could he still be alive? It is meaningless for the seventh senior sister to do this, and she might also get herself involved."
Xu Chen was a little anxious now. He released his flying sword and stepped forward: "I'll ask her!"
"Chen'er, come to Pindao Temple!"
A divine message suddenly sounded in Xu Chen's ears, it was Master Xuanhe Zhenren.
Xu Chen could only quickly agree, and headed straight to the southwest of Chaoyang Peak with his sword.
