Xi Zhong, who was still leisurely spending his days at the foot of the mountain recovering from the cracks in his spiritual roots, didn't know that Xiao Ping'er was already preparing to go to all the trouble to find him.
The Xianjia Mountain Peak towers into the clouds. Only from a very far distance can you see the entire mountain in full view.
Although Huayu Peak is the shortest peak in Luo Chan Sect, it would take less than two days for an ordinary person to walk from the foot of the mountain to the top.
That's why Xiao Ping'er is prepared to pay for it.
As for safety issues, Huayu Peak has a stone staircase from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Xiao Ping'er only needs to walk there. There are also pavilions there on the way at night.
Although there are insects chirping at night, there are definitely no mosquitoes in the pavilions, because each pavilion has an insect repellent charm affixed to it.
Of course, Jingshan, the director of Huayu Peak, will definitely not let Xiao Ping'er go alone. She will definitely follow her secretly or send her disciples to follow her.
Of course Xi Zhong doesn't know this yet, and now he is busy looking for medicinal materials.
He wanted to repair the spiritual cracks caused by the growth of spiritual roots as soon as possible.
The human body itself, Xi Zhong originally had no spiritual roots. Now that the on-hook system has forced a spiritual root into Xi Zhong, then there will definitely be cracks in Xi Zhong's body, which need to be repaired.
Only after repairing it can Xi Zhong begin to strengthen his body, truly step into the realm of refining Qi, and truly become a monk, instead of being like the disciples of the outer sect who have exhausted and numb spiritual energy in their spiritual roots.
There are so many miscellaneous spiritual roots in the world. It is just that the spiritual energy of Hujia Village in Xi Zhong's mountainous area is exhausted, and there are few people suitable for practicing Taoism.
If it were a place with outstanding people, there would probably be many people suitable for practicing Taoism among the people living there.
There are a lot of miscellaneous spiritual roots, including spiritual roots of sixth grade and above.
The Naluo Chan Sect adheres to the rule of only killing the wrongdoer and not sparing them, so as long as they are able to practice Taoism, they will directly accept them.
For the Luo Chan Sect, there is no loss in this, and it can also provide a few more hard-working disciples in the outer sect.
This is also the reason why Han Lue appeared in Hujiacun to recruit disciples.
Originally, Han Lue probably never thought that Hujiacun and Lijiacun would produce talents.
But I didn't expect that there would be a lot of surprises. Not only did I accept Li Erbiao as my disciple, but the most important thing was that I received Hu Zi, a genius with a third-level spiritual root.
However, fate plays a trick on people. The benefactor who brought Xi Zhong into the Luo Chan Sect turned against him because of a sword and wanted to drive Xi Zhong away. Xi Zhong had no choice but to have Long Yuan, otherwise he would really have been killed by Han Lue.
Killed.
Who will cry out for Xi Zhong, an outer disciple?
Definitely not.
Even if Huzi finally wakes up, Xi Zhong is already dead by then, and it will be too late to say anything.
Now that Xi Zhong has a rare spiritual root, even though it is just a pseudo-spiritual root, he must practice well!
Not to mention climbing to the top of the world, how can you say that you have the ability to protect yourself in the face of powerful enemies?
So Xi Zhong took leave from Senior Sister Fang Lan today and ran directly to the deep mountain and old forest adjacent to Huayu Peak.
But what troubled Xi Zhong was that the dashing Senior Sister Guan and the extremely sinister He Xiaotu also followed with curiosity on their faces.
Because the two girls were going to the deep mountains and old forests, they had already put on different clothes, which made it easier to move, but also made them more heroic.
Xi Zhong was a little helpless, "Sister, don't you want to practice? Why are you following me up the mountain?"
He Xiaotu chuckled, "It's definitely necessary to practice, but you also need to relax. Anyway, we don't pay much attention to that realm. Xinying and I haven't wandered around since we came here!"
Guan Xinying, on the other hand, was more domineering. She straightened out her bulging breasts, put her hands on her hips, and asked with a guilty expression on her face, "Why, you don't want the senior sisters to follow you?"
Looking at it like that, it seemed as if Xi Zhong showed a little bit of displeasure and was going to step forward to teach Xi Zhong, his junior brother, a lesson with his fists.
Xi Zhong just rolled his eyes, "I'm happy, why not? I can't wait to be accompanied by two beautiful senior sisters!"
He Xiaotu chuckled and said, "You are quite smart."
Xi Zhong ignored them and continued on his way.
Since he had spiritual roots, his physical strength has improved a lot, and he deserves to have a body nourished by spiritual energy. Now that he has been working hard on the mountain for a long time, Xi Zhong doesn't feel tired at all.
As for the two senior sisters who were already at the Foundation Establishment level, they were even more capable.
Walking deep into the mountains, you can hear the chirping of birds deep in the forest.
Xi Zhong looked up at the sun in the sky, fiddled with his little cloth bag, then took out two meat rolls and started eating.
The two senior sisters, who were taking off their boots and playing next to the gurgling water, saw what Xi Zhong was eating, their beautiful eyes widened, and they ran over barefoot.
Wrapped with spiritual power, those two pairs of white and tender little feet were not injured by the sharp stones on the river beach.
"Junior brother, what are you eating!? Hand it over to us quickly!" He Xiaotu gave full play to her arrogance and unreasonableness, and directly made her unreasonable request as soon as she came to Xi Zhong's side.
"What is this?" Guan Xinying was not so direct, but looking at her look, she also wanted to eat it.
Although the Foundation Establishment Realm monks have not yet become a beginner, their perception is still sharper than that of ordinary people, and they can smell the aroma of meat rolls.
Xi Zhong, who had just taken his first bite, had to swallow it in a hurry and said, "This is meat roll... Senior sister, do you want to eat it?"
This is the food that Xi Zhong prepared for today’s mountain climbing. He bakes a few dough pancakes of appropriate thickness, and then adds some delicious side dishes to them, such as fried meat, green vegetables, chives, etc., then rolls them up and wraps them in oil paper.
Put it in a small cloth bag and eat it whenever you want.
This is similar to the fast food like Mexican chicken tacos in the previous life.
"They asked us if we wanted to eat!" He Xiaotu opened her beautiful eyes wide again and bared her two rabbit-like front teeth.
Isn’t the attitude we expressed sufficient?
Guan Xinying also nodded confidently.
She was already delicious. When I was working hard in the Qi Refining Realm, my appetite was further enhanced. Now that I see this new thing that looks delicious, I naturally want to eat it.
Xi Zhong had no choice but to take out two sticks and give them to the two senior sisters.
After all, these two girls are also his senior sisters. We can't let them go hungry, right?
After He Xiaotu and Guan Xinying got the fragrant meat rolls, they couldn't wait to bite into them.
Thanks to his good looks, even eating like this looks pleasing to the eye. Xi Zhong comforted himself and thought it was like spending two meat rolls to buy the beautiful scenery in front of him.
It's embarrassing to say that a young man like Xi Zhong couldn't eat those two girls. Before Xi Zhong had eaten half of his meal, He Xiaotu and Guan Xinying had finished eating and started licking their little fingers. They looked at Xi Zhong and said, "You
Are there any more?”
Xi Zhong had no choice but to take out the only two sticks he had left.
The two senior sisters, who had no pain in their consciences, naturally took it and ate it without any psychological pressure.
Xi Zhong, who originally planned to wait until nightfall before going down the mountain, had to collect medicine for a while before going down the mountain.
Fortunately, with the help of two senior sisters in the morning, most of the herbs have been collected. They are all spiritual herbs used to nourish the body. They are very unpopular. If Ren Jingshan sees Xi Zhong using these herbs to nourish the body,
, that must be full of disdain. Huayu Peak actually has a special herb room to provide disciples with various medicinal herbs that nourish the body and calm the mind. People like Xi Zhong prepare the preparations by themselves by reading those low-level herbal books.
, it is definitely not as good as the herbal medicines in Huayufeng Herbal Medicine Shop.
When picking these herbs, Long Yuan also reminded Xi Zhong from the bottom of his heart, saying that although these herbs have some effects, they are too small, and it is recommended to find ways to get better ones.
Xi Zhong shook his head and said with a smile, these are good. First of all, he has a fake spiritual root, which is worse than some disciples of the outer sect. He can just use these. There is no need to waste natural resources. Secondly, there is no reason to go to the herbal medicine shop.
If you want these medicinal materials yourself, you will definitely attract attention, which is what Xi Zhong doesn't want to see.
Long Yuan nodded.
In fact, she really wanted to say, master, your pseudo-spiritual root is a bit special, and it is better than those seventh-, eighth-, and ninth-grade spiritual roots.
"Junior brother, these herbs don't look very useful. Why did you pick them?" He Xiaotu stood on a boulder, barefoot and spread out his arms.
Xi Zhong looked for herbs in the grass under the boulder and said without raising his head: "My mortal body is not as good as yours, senior sister, who have survived the battle and nourished your bodies with spiritual power. Naturally, I can only use
I have used stupid methods to collect medicine, and I don’t want to make myself as strong as an ox, I just want to make myself healthy.”
He Xiaotu jumped up to Xi Zhong's side, and the fragrance of a girl appeared on the tip of Xi Zhong's nose.
"Would you like Senior Sister to help you go to the herb room to get some herbs?" He Xiaotu asked with a smile.
It seems that those who eat other people's food are still short-tongued after all.
Xi Zhong raised his head and glanced at He Xiaotu, shaking his head, "Forget it, senior sister, your bodies must be tired after daily practice. Herb soaking is definitely needed, so I won't need it."
At this time, Guan Xinying came over with a few herbs, still in the basket that Xi Zhong carried, and said softly: "Xiaotu and I are already at the foundation-building level. The soaking of herbs is like mosquito legs for us, so it is dispensable.
It’s not even the icing on the cake, and the medicinal effects we extract from the herbs are quite small, and there is still a lot of medicinal effects left in the potion every time we throw it away.”
"At the worst, Little Rabbit and I can make a bucket of it, and I'll leave the other one for you."
Xi Zhong blinked, and then inexplicably thought of the wonderful scene of the two girls soaking in a medicine bucket together.
"Ha, you must have been thinking of bad things just now!" He Xiaotu is such a smart girl. She guessed that Xi Zhong was thinking of bad things when he saw Xi Zhong's eyes.
Xi Zhong had no choice but to roll his eyes to cover up his inner vulgarity.
