While Han Li was sizing up the other person's appearance, the man walked into the medicine garden with a smile and greeted him warmly:
"Junior brother is also a disciple of Tianquan Peak, right. I think his face looks very unfamiliar. Could it be that he just started the profession last year? In this way, I can be regarded as a genuine senior brother."
"My surname is Han, and I have only been a disciple for a few years. My senior brother must be a high disciple of Hidden Sword Peak!" Han Li said with a smile after looking away.
"It turns out to be Junior Brother Han. I am Kui Huan from Hidden Sword Peak. I and several senior brothers are responsible for taking care of a nearby spirit animal farm. It is located in a small basin dozens of miles away. Junior Brother, if you have a chance, you can go and take a look.
You see. Senior brother, although my cultivation level is not high, I have been a beginner for seven or eight years. There is nothing that I don’t know about the Luoyun Sect, big or small, and the senior brothers in each mountain peak. If there is anything you don’t know in the future, just ask me.
That'll be fine." This person looked familiar.
Han Li smiled slightly.
The eloquent man in front of him reminded him of the little abacus from Qixuanmen who claimed to be a know-it-all. He was also as sharp-tongued and all-rounded!
Obviously they are both the same kind of people.
Although Han Li was amused, he didn't have any bad feelings towards this person.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. But does Brother Kui come here this time for something important?" He asked with his arms folded on his shoulders and blinking.
Hearing Han Li's question, Kui Huan looked a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he scratched his scalp and said:
"I can't talk about important things. When I came this time, I originally wanted to ask my senior sister for help. But I didn't expect that senior sister Yuan, who has been managing this medicine garden for five or six years, would just leave. Now things are a bit difficult to handle.
Already."
"Help?" Han Li wrinkled his face and said with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Actually, it's nothing. Junior brother must also know that our foreign affairs disciples have never been taken seriously by the sect because of our qualifications. If the sect distributes any magic weapons and elixirs, it is naturally impossible for us to share. And one year
The hard-working spirit stones can't afford some cultivation elixirs to promote cultivation. Therefore, a few brothers and I have been catching a rare little animal called Snow in the Green Trace Swamp not far away.
The cloud fox is sent to the market for sale. Although this kind of little fox is not a monster, it is small in size, cute in appearance, and humane. Therefore, it is very popular among the female disciples in the sect. It also makes us disciples.
The brothers made a small fortune. But not long ago, we found a strange "Snow Cloud Fox" in the swamp. It had a faint aura on its body and seemed to have evolved into a low-level monster. This is natural.
A few of us were very happy. If we could catch this beast alive, we could at least sell hundreds of spirit stones. This would be a rare big deal. But unfortunately, we were a little impatient and didn't think carefully, so we let this beast out of our hands.
Sneaked away. From then on, this demonic beast hid in the depths of the swamp and never showed up again. Although we searched through most of the Green Trail Swamp and occasionally encountered this beast a few times, we didn't wait until we got closer.
, it just dived into the mud and disappeared." When he said this, Kui Huan had a look of regret on his face.
But when he saw Han Li's thoughtful eyes, he paused and then continued:
"Later, a few of us specially observed it for a period of time, and found that this heterogeneous snow cloud fox really likes to eat Polygonatum odorata that is older, especially Polygonatum odorifera with medicinal properties that are more than ten years old. After thinking about it, we decided to
To lure this beast out, it would take at least fifty years of Huang Jing. Only then could it jump into the trap desperately. But junior brother, you also know that no matter what kind of medicinal herb has been cultivated for decades, it is not just a few dollars, but a ten.
I can get a few spiritual stones. Although we had some savings in the past, we just worked together to buy a bottle of elixir for improving cultivation, and we no longer have any extra spiritual stones. In desperation, I
It occurred to me that there seemed to be two or three Huangjing plants of previous years in Senior Sister Yuan's medicine garden, so I came over to take a look. Unexpectedly, the medicine garden had been managed by Junior Brother Han. I wonder if Junior Brother Han could
Can I borrow a Polygonatum spp.?" When Kui Huan said the last sentence, his voice became lower and he hesitated a little.
It seems that he also knows that this request is a bit too much.
After listening to the other party's words, Han Li showed no expression on his face. He neither agreed nor disagreed. After a moment of silence, he slowly said:
"In the medicine garden, there are indeed two Polygonatum plants that are over fifty years old. They fully meet the requirements of senior brother. Logically speaking, this is the first time that senior brother Kui has asked me for help. As a junior brother, I should not refuse. But senior brother should know that this medicine
All the elixirs in the garden from previous years are not eligible for use by me. Once they are missing or something goes wrong, I can't explain it to the master above. They might even be punished. I'm afraid I can't help with this.
Already."
Han Li's words were so calm that the man in yellow shirt opposite couldn't help but look disappointed.
"Junior brother, don't worry. We are only borrowing this spiritual grass for a few days. When the time comes, the original will be returned. As for removing and transplanting this grass, we will be extremely careful. Nothing will go wrong. Of course.
, Our junior brothers did not borrow this spiritual grass for nothing. If we succeed in getting it later, we will also give our junior brother a share of the spiritual stone. We will never let our junior brother suffer a loss." He continued to persuade with some reluctance.
"Sorry! This matter is so important that I won't use the spiritual herbs from the medicinal garden. But if my senior brother really doesn't have many spiritual stones in his hand, I have accumulated some. I can temporarily borrow some of my senior brothers to go to Nafang City to buy another one.
Come back." Han Li refused firmly at first, but then the conversation changed and Zhan chuckled and said the words to borrow the spirit stone.
The face of the man in yellow shirt was a little ugly at first after hearing the previous words, but after hearing the next words, he became energetic. He suddenly asked in surprise:
"Junior brother, are you serious about what you said? If you are willing to borrow the spiritual stone, there is no need to use the elixir from the medicine garden. However, such a decades-old elixir would require at least thirty spiritual stones to exchange for it.
"Junior brothers really have so many." After Kui Huan was pleasantly surprised, he showed a hint of doubt.
After all, for a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, this is a considerable amount of money.
"Junior brother has accumulated these spiritual stones before he entered the profession. Now that I can't use them for a while, let's borrow them for a while! After all, if these spiritual stones can be doubled in just a few days,
Han doesn’t want to miss this rare opportunity." Han Li said slowly.
"Haha. It turns out that Junior Brother Han is also an expert in business. Please rest assured, Junior Brother, as long as you have this Huang Jing, capturing that Snow Cloud Fox is a sure thing." Only then did Kui Huan know that what the other party just said was true, and he couldn't help but
The smile spreads.
Han Li smiled and said nothing, put one hand into the storage bag, and more than twenty spiritual stones of different colors appeared in his hand, and then handed them to the other party without hesitation.
Kui Huan happily took the spirit stone from Han Li's hand and assured him that there would be no problem.
However, after he and Han Li chatted for a few more words, he said goodbye with something on his mind and left.
Looking at the other party's retreating back, Han Li's smile faded, and then he shook his head slightly.
Naturally, he would not care about the other party's promise of twenty or thirty spiritual stones, but he just didn't want to offend some people when he first came to Luoyun Sect.
He will stay in Luoyun Sect for a long time, and the other party is also a well-informed person. Maybe there will be a chance to use him.
After thinking about it like this, Han Li re-opened the ban on the medicine garden with an expressionless face, and returned to the secret room in Xiaoshi Mountain to continue his cultivation.
…
Three days later, Han Li looked at Kui Huan who looked embarrassed in front of him and was speechless for a while.
The other party came here not to return the spirit stone, but to ask Han Li to take action and capture the Xueyun Fox together.
"You guys are trying to catch a low-level monster. Don't you have enough manpower?" Han Li pursed his lips and looked suspicious.
"Junior brother, I don't know. This Snow Cloud Fox is extremely cunning. It runs so fast that ordinary flying magic weapons can't catch up with him. We originally borrowed a few rods from a good inner sect brother.
The tracking array flag can be used to set up a small tracking array and trap the fox in it. But one of the senior brothers was suddenly assigned a task by the superiors yesterday. He is no longer in the sect. In this way, this method
There is a missing link in the formation. If we find someone else, we will have to give them an extra piece of spiritual stone. The other senior brothers are reluctant, so senior brother, I came to ask the junior brother to take action. Of course, the spiritual stone will definitely be released by then.
You should pay more attention to junior fellow apprentices." Kui Huan said with a smile.
After hearing this, Han Li touched his chin and pondered.
If the other party comes to him at other times, he will naturally not waste any time on such trivial matters. He will refuse him immediately.
But a few days ago, when he was practicing the fourth level of Dayan Jue in the retreat room, he felt vaguely irritable and could not calm down.
This should be a sign that the skill has reached a certain bottleneck.
In this case, it might be a good idea to go out for a walk with the other party today.
After all, no one can predict with certainty the chance of breaking through the bottleneck.
After thinking about it, Han Li nodded slightly and said:
"Since Brother Kui has said so, I just need to take a trip. I'm really curious as to where this Green Trace Swamp is!"
After saying this, Han Li showed a lazy smile on his face.
