Lu Yu stopped and walked, wanting to find a drug store to exchange some of the herbs he collected for elixirs that would help him practice, but he was a little hesitant. He didn't know the prices of these medicinal materials, so he might be cheated.
, you can only suffer a dumb loss.
'Bencaotang' is a very common name, hidden deep in countless shops. Lu Yu stood in front of the 'Bencaotang' store, looking at the yellowed plaque. The shop was filled with the scent of medicinal herbs.
When we came out, there was an endless stream of customers in the store, which was quite lively.
From the time he first entered Chiming City, Lu Yu began to pay attention to these drug stores. Through his constant inquiries and understanding, he found that this 'Herbal Hall' has the best reputation and the fairest transactions. The store has existed for hundreds of years, and it can be said that it is
A truly century-old store.
Lu Yu took a deep breath and was about to go in when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. He was so frightened that he almost jumped up and his heart felt horrified. His body suddenly twisted and fell to the side. At the same time, he subconsciously punched out with his left hand, breathing loudly.
strong.
A hand appeared without warning and grasped Lu Yu's fist, binding it tightly like a pair of pliers, making it difficult to break free.
"The vigilance is good and the reaction is quite fast, but the strength seems a bit average." A chuckle came. Then the man paused and said, "Take your hands back, the city is not allowed to do anything." After saying that, he took the lead and let go.
Open your hand.
Then, Lu Yu also stopped and stopped.
"It's really incomprehensible that my destined person is such an ordinary boy." The man muttered in a low voice, but Lu Yu didn't hear clearly.
When he first entered the city, Lu Yu knew that practitioners were not allowed to fight in the city. This was not only a rule of Chiming City, but also a rule of all the cities in Kyushu. After all, if a person with advanced cultivation took action without any scruples, it might be possible.
Most of the city or even the entire city will be destroyed, and all life will be devastated. I don’t know how many people will die.
However, Lu Yu also knew that as long as he was strong enough and powerful enough, these rules would no longer be rules. They were just a means to restrain ordinary people and people with low cultivation levels.
Lu Yu slowly turned his head and realized that the person who had just started patting him turned out to be a young Taoist priest.
The little Taoist priest was wearing a neat washed blue robe that was slightly whitish. Some of the lines on the robe had become blurred. He wore a pair of black Shifang shoes, and his long hair was simply pulled up with a wooden hairpin.
Her face is like a crown jade, her eyes are like cold stars, there is a faint purple thunder pattern between her eyebrows, but her face is a little pale, she looks like a frail scholar. She is thin and seven feet tall, but she looks like a delicate woman in her twenties. At first glance,
, seems to be younger than Lu Yu.
He was holding a wine gourd in his left hand and an old scalper in his right hand. There was a smile on his lips. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was a bit nondescript.
Before Lu Yu could say anything, the little Taoist priest spoke in a familiar voice: "Don't be afraid, fellow Taoist, Pindao Xuanzhenzi, I think you and I are quite destined, why don't you and I find a good place and let Pindao give it to you?"
Telling fortunes can be regarded as making friends."
He was obviously a young man who had not yet reached the crown, but he still pretended to be young and mature, making the people around him laugh out loud. But the little Taoist priest didn't take it seriously at all. He looked at Lu Yu and said,
Face smiling.
"The roots of the mountain are broken, there is a gap in the sky, and the Qi between the eyebrows is scattered and not gathered. This is obviously a sign of early death. How did he survive until now?" The little Taoist stared at Lu Yu's face, and the blue and purple thunder lines between his eyebrows flashed slightly, like
One vertical eye opened, and there was a murmur in my heart.
Then he blinked his eyes and found that the appearance of premature death suddenly disappeared again, and his eyebrows were full of life, just like ordinary people, and he couldn't help but feel surprised again.
"It's really strange that this face can change like this? Could it be that I saw it wrong? No, could it be that some master changed the destiny for him? This destined person is really interesting!" said the little Taoist priest!
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly smiled and couldn't help but touch my chin.
"I see fellow Taoist hesitant in front of this 'Herbal Hall'. Do you want to buy medicinal materials and elixirs? I have lived in Chiming City for a while and know this place quite well. Do you need me to come?
Help?" The little Taoist priest "Xuan Zhenzi" seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly said to Lu Yu. After saying that, he reached out his hand to pull Lu Yu.
Lu Yu dodged his body, avoiding the little Taoist priest's hand, and stared at him closely, his eyes full of wariness. Lu Yu couldn't understand why he was so enthusiastic towards her since they were strangers to each other.
Moreover, Lu Yu couldn't see through him. Through the fight just now, Lu Yu could confirm that the little Taoist priest was definitely stronger than him, but he didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him. The most important thing was that when the two met for the first time, he asked himself,
There was nothing about him that might attract his attention.
Of course, knowing people but not their hearts, no one knows what kind of person this little Taoist priest is.
The two looked at each other.
"Thank you for your kindness, Taoist Priest. We are neither relatives nor friends, so you don't need to bother Taoist Priest." Lu Yu suddenly said. After saying that, he turned around to leave.
But the little Taoist priest was unwilling to give up. He took one step forward and came to Lu Yu. Without waiting for his reaction, he whispered in a low voice, "Jiuding Lian Shen."
The voice was neither soft nor loud, just enough for Lu Yu to hear but not for others to hear.
The moment the little Taoist priest said the words, Lu Yu felt as if there was a thunderclap in his ears, making him instantly stiff, his muscles all over his body tensed, and his strength surged. But the little Taoist priest Shi Shiran retracted his feet and held the old scalper's hand.
, turned around slowly and walked away.
Lu Yu was startled by his words and fell into a trance. He was a little at a loss and didn't understand how he knew his cultivation method. When he came to his senses, the little Taoist priest had already walked out a few feet away.
Lu Yu had no intention of thinking about the 'Ben Cao Tang' anymore, so he turned around and chased after the little Taoist priest impatiently. In any case, he had to ask first how he knew the magic formula he was practicing.
Just like that, the little Taoist named 'Xuan Zhenzi' was walking leisurely in front, holding the old scalper, while Lu Yu followed closely behind. He couldn't wait to know the reason, but he also knew that on the street
Said it was inappropriate.
The few people who were watching the excitement did not hear the little Taoist priest's words. When they saw the two people suddenly leaving, they were a little confused. When they found that there was nothing to see, they dispersed muttering.
Chiming City is incredibly big. After walking for nearly half an hour, Lu and Yu finally arrived at the little Taoist priest's residence, a courtyard called 'Shou Xuan Lu'. It covers an area of nearly a hundred feet, and there are dense forests inside.
There are bamboos, small bridges, flowing water, and rugged rocks, which are quite natural and primitive.
Walking into the yard, the little Taoist loosened the rope holding the old ox and let it go away by itself. Then he walked into the bamboo forest and sat down on the futon minding his own business.
Lu Yu followed him without saying a word. When he saw him sitting down, he immediately said, "How do you know the skills I practice? What do you mean by bringing me here?" Lu Yu also reacted now. He had previously
What he did was just to attract his attention, but his purpose could not be guessed by Lu Yu.
The little Taoist glanced at Lu Yu with interest and waved his hand, "Don't worry, I don't mean any harm. If you don't say anything else, just in terms of strength, you are now a master of the Yuan Qi realm, and the breakthrough time is not long. And I
Now that the vitality realm is complete and on the verge of a breakthrough, if I want to go against you, do I need to spend so much effort? If you and I fight, I can kill you within ten moves, do you believe it?"
Lu Yu just looked at him indifferently and did not speak.
"I'm just a little curious about you." The little Taoist took another sip of wine and smiled at him.
"You're curious about me? We've never met each other, what's there to be curious about?" Lu Yu couldn't understand.
"Two years ago, my master told me to wait for a destined person in Chiming City, and the method that the destined person practiced was the "Jiuding Divine Refining Technique." As for how I knew it, it was because I had understood it, and
I am also practicing the "Nine Cauldron Divine Refining Method", so I can naturally detect it."
"But the complete Jiuding Divine Refining Method is divided into nine volumes. You and I practice different volumes. As for the specific reason, I can't tell you." The little Taoist explained to him.
Only then did Lu Yu know that the Jiuding Divine Refining Method was divided into nine volumes, and he only practiced one of them.
"Chiming City is so big and there are so many people, can you be sure that the destined person you are waiting for must be me?"
"Is your surname Lu?" The little Taoist priest did not answer, but asked Lu Yu.
"Yes." Lu Yu was a little surprised.
"That's right, the destined person I'm waiting for is named Lu." The little Taoist priest was very confident.
"Then why are you waiting for that destined person? What's the point?" Lu Yu still couldn't understand and asked.
"I don't know what the meaning is. But my master insists on waiting for me, so what can I do? Besides, I'm really curious about you." The little Taoist priest also looked helpless. "There's no good place to go anyway, then.
Just waiting here."
Lu Yu stared at the little Taoist priest closely. The two looked at each other for a long time, and Lu Yu was not sure whether his words were true or false, so he could only give up.
"That's right. Why are you so hostile to me? It makes us seem to have a grudge. Let me introduce myself. My name is Gongyang Zhen, and my Taoist name is Xuan Zhenzi. What's your name?" Seeing Lu Yu relax, the little Taoist priest also secretly
He breathed a sigh of relief and then spoke.
"My name is Lu Yu."
"Lu Yu? Why does it have the same name as a little girl?" the little Taoist priest whispered.
"You still look like a little girl!" Lu Yu couldn't help but retort.
"Where are you from? What are you doing here?"
"Then where are you from?"
…
The two slowly started talking, and Lu Yu also learned the true origin of the little Taoist priest Gongyang.
