"Do you think this third-level Black Forest Python, Fellow Daoist Han, is a little unusual... Well... I mean in terms of intelligence, when we fought it before, we actually found that it knew how to hide and set up ambushes.
, this is really not the intelligence that a third-level monster beast should have. Fellow Taoist has had closer contact with this Black Forest Python, I wonder if you can see the reason?"
Hearing the question asked by Li Xuangang, the clan members, including Li Changzhi, also waited quietly for Han Yuru's answer. Although they had successfully killed the third-order black python, they had not yet figured out this doubt.
Seeing everyone in the Li family looking at her, Han Yuru thought for a moment before trying to explain:
"I don't know the specific reason, but I guess it may have something to do with the spiritual peaches it has eaten for many years. Some time ago, when I dived into the water to help it put storage bags, I saw many rotten peach stones at the bottom of the lake."
After hearing this explanation, although it could not completely solve Li Xuangang's confusion, there was currently no better way to explain his confusion. In comparison, this explanation was easier for him to accept.
After Han Yuru finished speaking, Li Changzhi lifted all the restrictions on Han Yuru with a wave of his hand.
He put the items belonging to Han An into the storage bag, and then handed the storage bag to Han Yuru.
Under Han Yuru's somewhat puzzled gaze, Li Changzhi explained:
"Since it is my brother's relic, it is only natural that I should return it to my brother."
Seeing Han Yuru taking the storage bag and looking at him with her big eyes, Li Changzhi asked again:
"Little friend Han, I have a heartfelt request."
Hearing this, Han Yuru did not dare to put away the storage bag, but held it in her hand. She said respectfully:
"I wonder what the senior's instructions are?"
Li Changzhi touched his beard and said to Han Yuru in as kind a tone as possible:
"I wonder if my friend is interested in being a guest of my Li family. You see, my friend, your brother is dead now and cannot provide you with shelter. Moreover, you are still in a dangerous area like the Hengduan Mountains."
"In my opinion, it is very difficult for me to leave the Hengduan Mountains safely with my sixth level of Qi Refining. Even if I have deep blessings and can return to Wujiangfang City safely, without your brother's protection, I will not be able to escape safely."
How long can you last in Wujiangfang City?"
"My little friend was also a casual cultivator before. I would like to know the hardships of being a casual cultivator. If my little friend agrees to join our Li family in Taiqiu Mountain and become a guest guest, I promise you in the name of the family elder that I will protect your integrity."
"In addition, after this operation in the Hengduan Mountains is over, you can also find a suitable cave in Taiqiu Mountain, where our Li family is based, and you will no longer have to spend spiritual stones to rent a cave in Fang City for training...
Well...you don’t have to rush to refuse, but you should give it some thought before replying to me.”
Han Yuru looked thoughtful, and after a moment, she asked anxiously:
"I wonder what senior needs me to do?"
Hearing Han Yuru's inquiry, Li Changzhi smiled slightly. He knew in his heart that the other party was already moved.
"Don't worry, little friend. Although there are some restrictions on becoming a guest of our Li family, for example, I have to perform various tasks assigned by the family. But don't worry, little friend, we will not assign you some dangerous tasks. You only need to give
The family can refine the elixir, and we will provide the materials for refining the elixir. In this way, you can not only improve your alchemy skills, but also receive corresponding rewards from our Li family."
Having said this, Li Changzhi said no more. He finally said: "I wonder what you think, little friend?" After that, he quietly waited for Han Yuru's reply.
...
Half a day after coming out of the cave, a group of black figures were walking through the Hengduan Mountains, and among them was a distinctive white figure.
Although Li Changzhi's inquiry was full of discussion, Han Yuru knew that she had no way to refuse.
Once she showed her intention to resist, I am afraid that the first people to kill her were not the monsters in the Hengduan Mountains and the casual cultivators in Wujiangfang City as the other party said.
But the Li clan member standing next to him would definitely raise his sword towards him without hesitation.
Han Yuru was secretly speechless as she followed this Li clan member. She did not expect that this ordinary Li clan member was also an alchemist.
Thinking of this, Han Yuru shifted her gaze to Li Xuangang. After Li Xuangang noticed it, she immediately turned her head and pretended to look elsewhere.
In the end, Li Xuangang slowed down and walked side by side with Han Yuru, cupped his hands and said:
"I have offended many people before, so I ask fellow Taoist Han not to worry about it."
Hearing Li Xuangang take the initiative to talk to her, Han Yuru smiled and replied to Li Xuangang:
"Yu Ru knows the reason, so how can she blame Fellow Daoist Li."
Afterwards, on the way back to the Lingshan stronghold, Li Xuangang and Han Yuru started chatting.
After a long journey, they finally returned to the Lingshan stronghold.
Since Li Xuangang was familiar with Han Yuru on the road, Li Changzhi asked him to help find a place for Han Yuru to open a temporary cave first.
And he walked into Li Qinghuan's cave with the stone box containing the third-level spiritual peach tree.
After opening a cave for Han Yuru and settling her in place, Li Xuangang returned to his cave.
He sat down cross-legged and recalled the experience of chatting with Han Yuru along the way. He became more and more sure of his suspicion. This female cultivator named Han Yuru was indeed a short-sighted person. Along the way, he easily identified her with just a few chats.
I know everything about the elixir in my hand.
As a first-level mid-level alchemist, Han Yuru can refine Yang Gu Dan and a first-level mid-level elixir called Heixuan Dan.
Previously, because Li Changzhi wanted her to feel the family's sincerity, he did not force her to hand over the prescription of Black Mysterious Pill.
But Han Yuru never expected that her elixir recipe would be stolen by Li Xuangang in the name of exchanging alchemy skills along the way.
When Han Yuru was sitting cross-legged in the cave opened for her by Li Xuangang, she thought Li Xuangang was a good man.
Because Li Xuangang not only exchanged his experiences in alchemy with her along the way, he also gave her sincere suggestions for her practice, and even promised that she could go to him if she encounters any problems in Taiqiu Mountain in the future.
Han Yuru, who had never seen the evil in people's hearts, never thought that Li Xuangang had ulterior motives for taking the initiative to talk to her.
...
Just when the kind-hearted Han Yuru was deceived by Li Xuangang into getting the prescription of Black Mysterious Pill.
In another temporary cave, Li Changzhi was discussing the next plan with Li Qinghuan.
After this period of recuperation, Li Qinghuan's injury has improved greatly. Although he has not fully recovered, he can move freely.
Li Changzhi stood in front of Li Qinghuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the stone bed.
Li Changzhi first told Li Qinghuan about the experience of killing the Black Forest Python, and finally mentioned the third-level spiritual peach tree and things about Han Yuru.
Li Qinghuan pondered for a moment, and then asked:
"What are Uncle Qi going to do?"
Li Changzhi also looked solemn, and then said:
"It is indeed a difficult problem to bring this third-level spiritual peach tree back to Taiqiu Mountain. In addition, the alchemist must also be properly arranged. Although our family has no precedent of recruiting guests, an alchemist is very important to the family.
, its value is no less than this third-level spiritual peach tree. We can’t just give up on her."
"And she is still a female cultivator. After more than ten years, she may marry a member of the clan and become a Taoist couple. When the time comes, she will be included in the family tree and officially become a member of our Taiqiu Mountain. Also.
Because of this, I deliberately did not agree with her on the time limit for her visit. How to keep her when she arrives at Taiqiu Mountain is what your eighth uncle Li Changji needs to consider."
After hearing the explanation from his seventh uncle Li Changzhi, Li Qinghuan also understood the importance of it.
So after thinking for a moment, he said to Li Changzhi:
"Uncle Qi, how about I leave for a while and send this third-level spiritual peach tree and the alchemist back to Taiqiu Mountain?"
Li Changzhi did not agree to Li Qinghuan's proposal. After careful consideration, he decided to personally send the third-level spiritual peach tree and the alchemist back to Mount Taiqiu.
The reason is that Li Qinghuan is still injured and is not suitable for traveling long distances.
Finally, after asking Li Qinghuan to stay at the Lingshan stronghold during this period, Li Changzhi prepared to leave his cave.
When he reached the entrance of the cave, Li Changzhi seemed to have thought of something, and said to Li Qinghuan:
"Please find time to deal with the first-order spiritual veins in the cave. If you encounter any inconvenience, wait until I come back and make arrangements."
Li Qinghuan listened and replied softly:
"Don't worry Uncle Qi, I will take care of this matter."
Li Changzhi said "hmm" and walked out of Li Qinghuan's cave.
...
It was not too late to leave early and return to Taiqiu Mountain one day earlier, so Li Changzhi only rested at the Lingshan stronghold for one night and called Han Yuru out of the cave the next day.
In addition, he was still at the top of Lingshan Mountain and emphasized to all the tribesmen the arrangements for his absence. In fact, it was nothing more than asking them not to disturb other third-level monsters.
After arranging many matters, Li Changzhi took the stone box containing the third-level spiritual peach tree and Han Yuru and set foot on the road back to Taiqiu Mountain.
.......
On the day Han Yuru left, at nightfall, Li Xuangang played with a peach stone in his hand, and then showed a meaningful smile on his face.
Han Yuru gave this peach core to him before leaving and asked him not to let others find it.
She said that this peach stone was secretly hidden at the bottom of the cave. In order to thank Li Xuangang for taking care of him along the way, she gave it to him.
After looking at the peach core in his hand for a moment, Li Xuangang dismissed the image of Han Yuru in his mind, and then opened the door to the Jieyuan space.
