Chapter 82: I Want Home
"Uh, today's class is over, we're going to close the mountain gate, come back in a few days!" After Zhao Xuan finished speaking, he was about to return to the top of the mountain, but was stopped by Xiao Jinglan.
"Elder Zhao, the little girl is Xiao Jinglan." It was none other than Xiao Jinglan who stopped Zhao Xuan. After sending Zhu Zilan down the mountain, she was left alone.
"Oh, long admiration of the daimyo!" Zhao Xuan arched his hand and said it, but his body wanted to bypass Xiao Jinglan and go up the mountain.
"Elder Zhao, my master is Elder Ge, he said......"
Only then did Zhao Xuan remember that he and Ge Wenjun had indeed agreed that when they were refining pills, they could let people watch. It's just that I didn't expect it to be Xiao Jinglan.
"Oh, I don't do alchemy now, I'll send someone to inform you when I make alchemy." Zhao Xuan said, and had already walked to the mountain road. Xiao Jinglan behind him, but he followed him to death.
In fact, with Xiao Jinglan's temperament, it would not have been like this. It's just that since he saw Zhao Xuan studying the spirit grass in the alchemy room of the stone building, he began to feel unstable. In addition, the special guidance and arrangement of Li Chenxi and several elders made Xiao Jinglan believe that as long as he followed Zhao Xuan, Dan Dao would be able to break through.
Xiao Jinglan doesn't attach much importance to cultivation, but he cares about Dan Dao very much, especially his own talent. Perhaps a kind of unyielding momentum is also causing trouble. That's it, and he followed Zhao Xuan with a sigh of relief.
"Hey, why are you still following? Hey, forget it, what do you love! Looking at Xiao Jinglan's little face flushed, his hands tugging at the corners of his clothes, and his pitiful appearance, Zhao Xuan was also helpless.
Distraught, he turned around and walked down the mountain. After a while, I saw Bi Fu and a few people.
"Bi Fu, Zhang Jia, call everyone over."
Bi Fu was discussing today's harvest with a few people, when he saw Zhao Xuan walking over, followed by Xiao Jinglan. The look suddenly became strange, but he didn't dare to say more.
"This is Senior Sister Xiao Jinglan, and she may live on our mountain in the future. Take out all your tokens, Bi Fu and Zhang Jia each have fifteen contribution points, and the rest have ten contribution points each. ”
"This ......" When he heard that Zhao Xuan was going to reward him with contribution points, the twelve people were stunned with the miscellaneous token in their hands.
"Alright, don't be verbose. Since they all chose to stay yesterday, they are the people of Xuanyuan Peak, there is nothing to say, just be a little simpler. In addition, I still have more than 10,000 contribution points in my token, you can exchange them for a few spirit gathering arrays, and find a few vacant land to build a few medicine gardens. ”
Zhao Xuan thought for a moment and continued, "The first medicine garden is planted with all first-grade spirit grass, the second medicine garden is planted with second-level spirit grass, the third medicine garden is planted with third-level spirit grass, and the fourth medicine garden is planted with fourth-level spirit grass, each of which is planted with more than ten plants. Use the contribution value to exchange for herb seeds, and replace some seedlings with a long growth cycle to ensure that each one can mature within a year. ”
"More than 10,000 contribution points are definitely not enough, first ensure the spirit gathering formation, then replace the spirit crystal, and finally the herb seeds. Go ahead and change it now, as much as you can. Your contribution points, you can change things by yourself, don't be stingy, you pass my assessment every month, which is enough for you. ”
"In terms of time, you are completely free, and there is basically nothing to do. Well, that's all, I'll let Steward Wu inform you if there's something. If you have something to do, you can also find Steward Wu. ”
Although Zhao Xuan didn't give much, and his words were not very polite, but when the words fell on the hearts of several people, they turned into a warm current.
……
"Oh my God! Senior sister, can you not do this, I can't stand it. ”
In the main courtyard on the top of Xuanyuan Peak, Zhao Xuan sat at the table with a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and the table was full of spiritual food, but he really couldn't eat it.
It's not that the food is not to taste, it's not that I don't like it, it's that I'm not used to it, it's very unaccustomed!
For three months, Zhao Xuan basically asked people to make a large table of snacks every ten days, and then drink a few sips of monkey wine to satisfy their appetite. However, every time he ate, Xiao Jinglan would stand behind him and watch without saying a word.
Once or twice, Zhao Xuan was a little embarrassed. Only then did he invite Xiao Jinglan to sit down and eat together, but people didn't like this bite at all.
In addition, Zhao Xuan's eating posture is still the appearance of Zhaojia Village, which is indeed not very elegant. From Xiao Jinglan's somewhat frowning and disgusted appearance, one or two can also be seen.
Once inadvertently, Xiao Jinglan stared at his wine glass, his eyes unblinking. simply poured a small cup for Xiao Jinglan, and then had a good meal.
However, since drinking Zhao Xuan's monkey wine, he seems to have become addicted. Zhao Xuan was embarrassed, so he simply sent a jar of water to the past. The jar of monkey wine is made of one-tenth of the monkey wine syrup, plus nine-tenths of the spiritual water.
Even so, Xiao Jinglan's eyes lit up when he drank, and he was full of brilliance. After that, he set his eyes on Zhao Xuan, full of curiosity, and didn't even blink his eyes.
No, Rao is Zhao Xuan is thick-skinned, and he can't stand it anymore.
"What are you laughing at? Don't have to work anymore? Still haven't eaten?! Looking at Wu Laosan, Bi Fu and others on both sides of the table, their faces were flushed, and they wanted to laugh and couldn't hold back, and they suddenly became angry.
Zhao Xuan lost his temper, but what caused him to burst into laughter. In the past few months, everyone has also become familiar with each other, and they have also figured out Zhao Xuan's character. is no longer like the sincere fear of facing other disciples and elders at the beginning, but looks at Zhao Xuan like a family member.
"Hey, what do you say! All the spirit grass courses have come to an end today. In a few days, except for Steward Wu, I will be given to participate in the monthly assessment of the outer disciples, and if I can't get the top 200, don't come back. ”
In the past three months, Zhao Xuan has given a total of nine lectures, all of which are about the cognition of spirit grass. On the second day of each course, a few people will be given to Bi Fu and a small stove will be opened. Basically, the knowledge of the spiritual grass that the outer disciples need to master, the twelve people have already figured out seven, seven, eighty, eight.
As for the matter of alchemy, it was not taught at all. It's not that Zhao Xuan is stingy, but laying a foundation for them. As long as they grow up, there are still some things that can be handed over to them in the future.
"This, Little Elder, we are just miscellaneous disciples, and we are not qualified to participate in the outer gate assessment!" Zhang Jia is in his thirties and is only a miscellaneous disciple, but he knows the truth of the strict hierarchy of the Longteng Sect.
"Take my token!" After that, he threw the token away, and directly got up and walked towards the residence on the top of the mountain, Xiao Jinglan hurriedly followed.
As soon as Zhao Xuan left, several young people ran to Zhao Xuan's seat, and a young man named Zhang Shu ran the fastest, reaching out and taking Zhao Xuan's wine jug into his arms.
Although a few people didn't know the name of the wine, they knew that it was a good thing. Take a sip, you can withstand the previous day's meditation and cultivation, and it is still very stable.
"Zhang Shu, didn't the little elder give each of us an altar? Why are you still so poor? Bi Fu stared at the wine jug, his eyes lit up, but he was embarrassed to snatch it. At this time, it was also a sarcastic ridicule, and several young people also echoed it.
Wu Laosan laughed happily when he saw it, if they knew that Zhao Xuan gave Wu Laosan a whole half of the original taste of the liquor, I don't know what it tasted like in my heart. The half of the altar was hidden by Wu Laosan, and he took out a spoonful every day and drank it with spiritual water.
……
As the sun set, Zhao Xuan habitually walked around Xuanyuan Peak, and Xiao Jinglan followed not far away.
Zhao Xuan walked quietly in front, and Xiao Jinglan followed behind, neither of whom spoke. The two Star Realm elders who were in charge of monitoring around them did not speak.
"Ten Thousand Sections and Ten Layers of Fire Control Method, you have also mastered it. You also know all about the research methods of Spirit Grass. Even if it is the Bloodline Pill, you have already refined the six grades. You really don't have anything to learn here, Ge Lao is much better than me. ”
Zhao Xuan stood on a cliff, his expression calm, looking at the gurgling water below, and said softly, as if talking to himself. The spring breeze was like a link, bringing the words to Xiao Jinglan behind him.
"As for Dan Duel, I figured it out by myself, and it only suits me. Compared to what you have mastered, it's really not worth mentioning. In fact, whether it is Ge Lao or Guan Lao, they have already taken everything from me, and the rest is my head. ”
Zhao Xuan tilted his head, his eyes slanted at the sunset, "I can't give you this thing in my head." A lot of things, if you ask me how I came up with them, maybe you can blame me for having no one to teach! So, all I can say is be yourself, don't imitate. ”
Xiao Jinglan stood there, letting the spring breeze blow, bringing up waist-length filament, and he was in a daze. I don't know how much Zhao Xuan said, or if he didn't listen to a word.
"Actually, you're ashamed of me. I know my own affairs, and my Dan Dao talent is really not good. When I first came into contact with Dan Dao, I had been dealing with Lingcao for a few months, and I didn't even feel it at all, let alone any closeness or anything like that. At that time, one of my seniors told me that I was not very talented. ”
"Maybe it's stubbornness, maybe it's unwillingness, I figured out what kind of ten thousand sections and ten layers of the method myself, and I will forcibly remember every spirit grass. Until now, it was through a lot of training and repeated memories that I knew what those spirit grasses looked like and what kind of breath they had. ”
"So, my talent is not high. It's just you, the 10,000-paragraph ten-layer method, in just a few days, you can figure out the truth that took me a year to understand. Every time you refine a new elixir, you can get started faster than I do. You know more than I do, and it took me a long time to figure it out through stupid methods. ”
"So, you don't have to say anything inferior to me or something. Moreover, your heart is towards Dan Dao, and you only have Dan Dao in your heart, and you are more pious than me, which is where I am inferior to you. Starting tomorrow, I will teach the method of alchemy and then leave for a while. ”
Leave?
"Where are you going?" Xiao Jinglan asked a little nervously, as if Zhao Xuan had disappeared.
"I'm going home!"
It has been thirteen or fourteen years since I left Zhaojia Village, and it is false to say that I don't want to go home.
Moreover, as far as Zhao Xuan knew, the Chenlong Empire and the Dragon Snake Empire had already had a large-scale conflict. It's clearly different from the past, and there must be something big going on.
Although it is only a contest between two empires, who dares to deny that it is not a game between two major sects?
The Dragon Snake Mountain Range, where Zhaojia Village is located, is not far from the border between the two countries, and it is very likely to be affected.
If the war spreads to Zhaojia Village, I'm afraid the result will not be very good! There, after all, is where the lower classes of people live, and no one cares about the life and death of these people.
This is also a demon in Zhao Xuan's heart to break through the Zhudan Realm!
