In the next two days, in addition to meditating and taking care of the little fox, Xu Chen went to the medicine garden every day, hoping to see a miracle, but unfortunately the miracle did not appear. The Resurrection Wood and all the medicinal materials were growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Withered and yellow, it completely lost its vitality.
What kind of poison is in this feces that it is so powerful?
Xu Chen was puzzled. It was not until the third elder informed him to gather at Chaoyang Peak that he put away his confused thoughts, stuffed the little fox into his arms, and rode over with his sword.
When Xu Chen arrived, all the senior brothers and sisters who were still at the mountain gate had already arrived.
Everyone already knew about the medicine garden, so they seemed to be in a very low mood. Most people looked at him with complicated eyes, even with a hint of anger. However, the third elder did not say anything to punish him for this matter.
, a group of disciples naturally couldn't cause trouble to him.
"I have gone to investigate the matter in the medicine garden. I don't know the reason yet, so you should pay more attention to the changes in the mountain gate and be more careful on weekdays. Okay, you three will set off with me!"
The third elder explained briefly, and then released a flying sword. It swayed in the wind and grew to the size of more than ten feet. With a roll of sleeves and robes, Xu Chen, Zhao Xuan and the ninth brother took the flying sword with them, and activated their vitality to turn into a stream of light and destroy it.
Go away empty.
Standing on the flying sword, Xu Chen was trembling with fear. He could hear the roaring wind in his ears and the primitive mountains and ravine-ridden mountains passing by his feet.
This feeling is both exciting and terrifying.
The speed was several times faster than his usual flying with a sword, and he was already more than ten miles away from the mountain gate in the blink of an eye.
No one said anything along the way. Half an hour later, a mortal city appeared on the edge of the primeval forest ahead. The three elders pressed down the flying sword and landed it more than ten miles outside the city. After a few words of instruction, they left the three of them behind and returned to the mountain gate with their swords.
Already.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. The ninth brother said with a face full of surprise: "I used to fly here by myself. It took nearly two hours. The third elder flew really fast."
Xu Chen groaned, rubbed his numb face and said, "If the Great Elder takes you to fly faster."
Zhao Xuan smiled and arranged her hair that was messed up by the wind with her hands, and said: "If it hadn't been for the appearance of the third-level demon wolf, the third elder would not have sent us off. Let's go. Let's go to the city to inquire first. It's best to find someone to go to the capital.
caravan, otherwise flying all the way would consume too much energy and might cause trouble."
"Would you like to walk there?" Xu Chen had never been down the mountain before, so he looked at the city more than ten miles away with some confusion.
Brother Ninth shook his head and said with a smile: "We are immortal masters, how could we possibly walk over there? Of course we are wielding swords!"
With that said, the Ninth Senior Brother released his flying sword, stepped on it and jumped into the air.
Zhao Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she also released her flying sword and stood up. Xu Chen could only use his own flying sword, and sat on it. Then the three of them walked towards the city at a height of dozens of feet without any hurry.
"Wow, look, the immortal master is here!"
"It must be the immortal master of Taiyuan Sect. What's so strange? I see it often."
"Haha, I see it often, but have you ever seen an immortal master riding a flying sword?"
"Where? Wow hahahaha, it really is like this."
"Everyone, come and see, an immortal master riding a sword is here!"
As it flew by, pedestrians below cheered, and some pointed at Xu Chen and laughed.
In the air, Brother Ninth couldn't help but laugh wildly. Zhao Xuan also covered her mouth and kept laughing all the way. Although Xu Chen blushed a little, he didn't care. The ridicule of mortals is nothing. Master Tao can fly, but you can
Flying? Although the movement is indeed ugly, it is the safest way and there is no way it will fall.
Soon the three of them flew into the city, causing the people to cheer and laugh.
The three people landed in front of the city lord's mansion. After receiving the news, the city lord Pi Dian'er ran out to greet them with a flattering face. He welcomed the three people into the government office and brought them various melons, fruits, tea and pastries to entertain them.
Brother Ninth Brother and Zhao Xuan often went down the mountain to practice, so they felt normal about the reception given by these mortal officials. They expressed a few token thanks and then each tasted a few fruits and snacks, but Xu Chen was eye-opening.
It's been five years. He hasn't had a hot and full meal in five years. In addition to wild fruits and meat and some grain biscuits, he usually drinks cold water to stay full, or he meditates for several days in a row.
, over the past few years, I have become a little hungry for delicious food, and I immediately wolfed it down without any hesitation.
So under the frightened eyes of the city lord and a group of servants and maids, Xu Chen ate from side to side for nearly two moments before slowly stopping. He ate most of the fruits and melons on the table by himself, and finally started with a satisfied burp.
Rub your belly.
I ate too much and felt a little stuffed.
"Oh...ah..."
As if smelling the aroma of food, the little fox in his arms let out a soft cry and slowly raised its little head.
"Wow, what a beautiful little fox!" someone among the maids exclaimed excitedly.
"What fox? That's the immortal master's spiritual pet. Do you know that spiritual pets can fly into the sky and escape from the earth when they grow up?" The city lord quickly scolded and corrected him.
"Can spiritual pets also ride and fly?"
"That's natural. This spiritual pet is an extraordinary breed at first glance."
The city lord's palace was full of excited exchanges and flattery. Xu Chen finally realized for himself that there is another real meaning to immortality. As long as it is an immortal's thing, even a fart smells good.
The city lord is such a high-ranking figure. When he was still picking up excrement for rich families, let alone the city lord, he was an ordinary town at that time. He was not even qualified to meet the officials in the town. The biggest official he had ever seen was Li
Changhe patrolled, and he didn't dare to speak.
But now, a city lord who manages tens of thousands of people would be so humble in front of him and could only stand and watch them eat.
"By the way, my spiritual pet wants to drink milk, go and get some quickly!" Xu Chen ordered unceremoniously.
"The immortal master's spiritual pet wants to drink milk. Go and bring the best nanny in the house!" The city lord quickly ordered loudly.
As soon as Xu Chen spurted out a sip of tea, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Goat milk and mare milk will do, not human milk!"
The city lord nodded and bowed with a flattering look on his face and said: "How can that be done? Goat milk and horse milk are only drunk by despicable people. How can the immortal master's spiritual pet drink it? If it weren't for the fact that several of my concubines have no milk at the moment, they would definitely be summoned to serve them.
Immortal Master."
Xu Chen's face turned dark instantly. These words were too ambiguous.
Zhao Xuan lowered her head and covered her mouth and kept chuckling. Brother Ninth also couldn't bear the discomfort and kicked Xu Chen with his foot and whispered: "Junior brother, this is enough, we are just stopping here and leaving, because we know you
It’s not good to eat in the mountains on weekdays, so I specially brought you here to gain some experience.”
Xu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't know they were so diligent."
Soon, a voluptuous young busty nanny followed the maid in. She heard that she was feeding the immortal master's spiritual pet. She was filled with surprise and unbuttoned her clothes on the spot. Xu Chen quickly handed the little fox to a little maid next to him and said
: "Take it to the side for feeding, then bring it over after feeding."
"Yes, Immortal Master!" The little maid was suddenly excited and nervous. She held the little fox to the next room with her hands stiffly as if she were holding the ancestor's memorial tablet.
The Ninth Senior Brother then told the city lord a few words and asked him to help find a caravan going to the capital. After speaking, he took out a thumb-sized porcelain bottle from his arms and said: "This is a clear water pill, which is a reward for your work!
"
The city lord was overjoyed. He lay down on the ground with excitement and banged his head several times. Then he took the porcelain vase with trembling hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Master Immortal, for the reward!"
Brother Ninth nodded slightly and said: "Nanyang City is the closest to Taiyuan Gate. In the past, there was little contact. As long as you work diligently, there will be no shortage of elixirs and magic weapons. Go and make arrangements quickly, and let us know as soon as you are ready!"
"I obey the Immortal Master's decree!" The city lord got up, carefully put away the porcelain vase, and then retreated to make arrangements himself.
"You all should go down too!" Zhao Xuanyu waved her hand gently, and a large group of maids and servants also quickly bowed and exited the hall.
"Junior brother, how are you? The mountain is quite fun, isn't it?" Ninth Brother said with a wink and a smile.
Xu Chen nodded with sadness: "It is indeed much more fun than the mountains!"
Senior Brother Ninth lowered his voice and said, "There is something more fun. Junior Brother, do you want to play it?"
"Senior brother, you are going to die!" Zhao Xuan stomped on the ninth senior brother hard and groaned with a red face.
Ninth Senior Brother chuckled and said: "This is my first time going down the mountain. I have to feel everything. After all, my status is different from before. When Fifth Senior Brother took me down the mountain for the first time to practice, it was much more exciting than this."
Zhao Xuan stepped on him hard again and said through gritted teeth: "Anyway, you are not allowed to do those messy things as long as I am here. My junior brother is still young, so don't lead him astray."
Xu Chen roughly understood what the Ninth Senior Brother was talking about, so he asked with a serious face: "Ninth Senior Brother, are you an immortal or a gangster?"
"This..." Ninth Senior Brother's face turned red.
"Kukukuku!" Zhao Xuan covered her mouth and laughed wildly.
Xu Chen added: "I heard that in cultivation, Yuanyang cannot be broken before establishing the foundation, otherwise the path to immortality will be cut off."
Brother Ninth drank tea to calm down, and at the same time curled his lips and said: "Don't believe those nonsense, we practice Taoism and believe in letting nature take its course, and the harmony of yin and yang. Relaxing once in a while is more beneficial to experiencing the Taoist heart."
This time Zhao Xuan did not refute, but frowned and said: "Even so, you still need to find like-minded people. What's the use of finding ordinary women? As my junior brother said, they are no different from gangsters!"
The Ninth Senior Brother did not dare to speak anymore this time. He finished a cup of tea and said: "Since Junior Brother is not interested, let's stop less on the road and go to the capital as soon as possible. I heard the Third Prince say last time that we will go this time.
There are many countries and immortal sects wishing you birthday, and it will definitely be an eye-opener when the time comes."
At this point, the Ninth Senior Brother held his chin and thought for a moment before asking Zhao Xuan: "Junior Sister, do you know the fellow Taoists from Zhengyang Sect?"
Zhao Xuan nodded and said: "Last year, I went down the mountain to practice and went to Xiling Gorge to pick floating grass for three days with three Taoist friends from Zhengyangmen. I am quite familiar with it."
Brother Ninth was overjoyed when he heard this and said quickly: "That's just right. When I go to the capital, you can help me introduce some Taoist friends from Zhengyangmen."
Zhao Xuan asked in confusion: "Why are you looking for them? Zhengyang Gate is similar to our Taiyuan Gate. There is nothing worth trading."
Brother Ninth smiled and said, "It's not a transaction, I just want to get to know fellow Taoist Su Ping'er from Zhengyangmen. I met her once a few years ago and I feel that she is someone with the same goals as me and is suitable to be a Taoist companion."
Zhao Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't refuse. Instead, she nodded and said: "Senior brother wants to find a Taoist companion. The Taoist companion from Zhengyang Sect is indeed very suitable. But I also know that Su Ping'er is beautiful and fragrant, and her own cultivation is also very good."
Yes, but it is said that you are about to establish your foundation and enter the true essence realm. Senior brother, your cultivation level is quite different, I’m afraid you think that others will look down upon you!"
Brother Ninth immediately rubbed his chin with a grimace and said: "Originally, my qualifications can also succeed in building the foundation, but I just can't keep up with the elixir. I do some chores at the Shanmen Nursing Home every day, and now the medicine garden is ruined.
I'm afraid that the gap will get bigger and bigger, alas, it seems that I won't be able to find a wife in this life!"
Xu Chen originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but when he thought about the medicine garden, he suddenly lost his mood.
The lively conversation between the three people suddenly became deserted, and their faces and eyes became gloomy.
