The years were in a hurry in the mountains, Tao Xinlai sat on the ground between the two rows of bookshelves on the second floor of the Reading Pavilion, leaned against the wooden shelves, rubbed his eyes, and put down the books in his hand with some distress. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Among the materials for refining the elixir is a rare herb called horseear. As the name suggests, the horse's ear grows like a horse's ear. Tao Xin came to search for Lingzhitian and couldn't find this herb, so he looked for information about horseear on the first and second floors of the Lanjing Pavilion.

But after searching for a long time, all she got was a hand-drawn atlas of horseear grass and a simple sentence - horseear grass likes shade and dampness, does not see the light of day all year round, and is extremely cold and difficult to cultivate.

Hey, while she was on the task, she had already found many dark and damp places where there was no sunlight all year round, but she had never seen a horse's ear. So, do you want her to go out of the mountains to the black market to find it? I don't know if the spirit stones she has saved now are enough to buy a small leaf of horseear.

Compared with directly eating the elixir, it is much more difficult to collect materials and ask someone to refine them. But even if the opportunity was in front of her, would she be able to steal the elixir with a clear conscience like the original owner to eat?

Hey, horseear grass, horseear grass.

"What are you looking for for a horseear?" A voice rang out next to her.

Tao Xinlai was startled, only then did he realize that he had unconsciously made a sound, and he didn't know if the sound was loud or not, would it make noise to others? She blushed a little and looked left and right, but she didn't see anyone.

"Where do you look? The five senses are so insensitive and you still cultivate immortals! The voice was disgruntled.

Tao Xinlai raised his head suddenly, and was stunned.

Each floor of the Pavilion is very high, and it is about five meters high. Of course, the bookshelves are also very high. But this is not the point, the point is that there is an old man hanging upside down on the whole ceiling that is so smooth and straight that there is no seam at all, and his feet are all attached to the ceiling, and even his hair is scattered smoothly on his shoulders, without a trace of falling down.

This...... Who is this old man? When were you there?

The old man saw Tao Xinlai's stupid expression, smashed his mouth dissatisfied, and said: "Na, my old man came to talk to you kindly, why do you have such an expression, if it weren't for you reading seriously, I would ignore you!" Hmph, read a book and die slowly, who wants to pay attention to you, hum! ”

……

Tao Xin blinked, very puzzled. Did she ask him to reason with herself? I guess it's because I've read too many books and I'm hallucinating. She silently took the book in her hand, got up and prepared to change positions to rest and rest before continuing to read.

"Hey, what are you going! I'm! Who let you go! The old man blew his beard and glared, and moved his position with Tao Xin on the ceiling.

Tao Xin paused and looked left and right, strange, when he came in, he saw several people, why didn't any of them disappear at this moment. The old man must be hallucinating.

"Don't look at it, they're all outside, I'm telling you, don't walk around, it's the same everywhere you go!"

Space?

Tao Xinlai looked up in surprise.

"What space? Cut, you're thinking beautifully, it's just a small formation enchantment. Do you want space? That's something that can't be found, and it's a waste to give it to you as a rookie like you. ”

Tao Xinlai blinked, and began to wonder in his heart. The old man knew what she was thinking. Besides, what is he doing in the enchantment, a rookie like her shouldn't be able to attract people's attention. If it is said that it is Bai Zilian, there is such a possibility.

"Bai Zilian? Who's that? ”

Tao Xinlai rubbed his temples silently, "Senior, can you not read my mind?" ”

"Oh, I didn't mean to, but you're too open-minded, and it's easy to read. I didn't mean to. If you have the ability, you can put away your thoughts, put a cover, and don't let me see it. Cut, I'm too lazy to read your careful thoughts that can't be put on the table......"

"Senior, I'm just a rookie, otherwise you can teach me how to 'put away my mind and add a cover'?"

"That's not easy, I tell you, it's ...... Hey, why should I tell you? You're not me! ”

This old man is quite childish.

"Who do you say is childish?"

"Can you not read minds? Tidy up the place where you receive other people's thoughts, add a cover? ”

"Hmph, do you know how to respect the old and love the young, I won't play with you anymore!" As soon as the words fell, the person on the ceiling disappeared out of thin air, and at the same time, the corner of Tao Xinlai's eyes swept to a Miaozhen disciple who was standing in front of the originally empty window and reading.

This...... This old man...... It's funny, isn't it......

Tao Xinlai shook his head with tears and laughter, and simply continued to read. Although there was such a small episode, Tao Xinlai was still able to calm down, so this day was still a fulfilling day for her to soak in the Scripture Pavilion.

The next day, Tao Xin didn't go to the Jingge, but went to pick up some tasks and continued to look for the horseear, but the tasks were completed, and the horseear still didn't land.

On the third day, Tao Xinlai originally wanted to go to the Reading Pavilion to read a book, but Han Beiwang came to her to form a team to do a task, and Tao Xin didn't go to the Reading Pavilion when he came. She didn't tell anyone about the search for the Cleansing Pill Danfang, she was looking for it herself, so Han Beiwang was very curious about her behavior of not rushing to leave the secret realm after completing the task, but looking for all the dark and damp corners.

However, Tao Xinlai just smiled and did not explain the reason. The less people know about this kind of thing, the better, it's not that Tao Xinlai doesn't believe Han Beiwang, it's just that according to Han Beiwang's current situation, she doesn't want to implicate him.

Speaking of Han Beiwang's situation, Tao Xinlai was a little worried in his heart. Because she didn't remember mentioning the cause and process of Han Beiwang's injury in the original book, nor did she mention how he was injured after that, she couldn't give him useful advice. During this time, she had also read a lot of books about the damage to the dantian in the Lanjing Pavilion, but because she couldn't find the reason for Han Beiwang's injury, she still had a sense of powerlessness that she couldn't start.

On the fourth day, Tao Xinlai finally went to the Jingge Pavilion again. She searched for the books she was interested in according to her habits, and then found the book according to Yubi's prompts, and quietly found a place to read it.

Time always flies when reading a book. She was fascinated by the book, when suddenly a pair of hands snatched it.

Tao Xinlai was startled, and subconsciously looked at the person who came, hey, why is it that old man again!

"What? What's wrong with me again! ”

……

"No, the seniors are really elusive, and the disciples admire them." This old man can haunt a place like the Reading Pavilion, and he can form a formation in it by himself, he must be a person from the Miaozhen Gate, but I don't know who it is. It's strange, there is such a number one person in the Pavilion? "Senior, don't read my mind anymore, otherwise I won't dare to come!" Tao Xinlai said jokingly.

"Humph!" The old man put the book down, "Why, because of this you don't come for two days?" However, he quietly wrote a "seal" in the palm of his hand and bounced it in her direction without a trace.

"That's not ......," Tao Xinlai honestly denied.

"Humph! As soon as I praised you for reading seriously, you became lazy! I don't care how you arrange your time, anyway, from today onwards, you're going to be here for three hours a day! ”

Tao Xin raised his eyebrows, "Then why?" ”

"The little girl asks so much what to do, you can do whatever you want!"

Tao Xinlai's eyes rolled, and his expression became very embarrassed. "Senior, this ...... I'm afraid it's a little difficult. ”

The old man blew his beard angrily, "What's inappropriate?" "If it weren't for the fact that this girl has been studying hard all this time, and her cultivation of understanding is very fast, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to her.

"Senior, did you want me to read a book when you asked me to stay here for three hours?"

The old man held his head high, "Hmph, ask so much what to do, do whatever you want, it will not hurt you." ”

"It can't be a hurtful thing, right?" Tao Xinlai asked cautiously.

The old man's stiff white beard flew up. "Do you see me like that?"

"Hehe, I just asked casually......" Tao Xinlai also knew that the point was up, and there was a faint excitement in his heart, could this be the most popular hidden plot in stand-alone games, peerless adventures? I sent it myself! It's a miracle to automatically send it to her as a female partner.

"But it's still a little difficult."

"The little girl is just a lot of things, what's the difficulty?"

"You know, I'm very poor, and in order to be able to come in and read, I have to do multitasking every time to save up merit points, this ...... It's quite time-consuming......"

"Hmph, the little girl is quite cunning. Okay, you don't have to accept merit points when you come in later. Don't mention the other requirements. ”

Tao Xinlai nodded, "Well, there is still a question, is it okay?" She stretched out a finger, looking playful, very eye-catching, but unfortunately in front of her was an old man who didn't know how to appreciate the girl's style.

"Say."

"Why did the seniors choose the disciples?"

The old man stared at her strangely for a long time before he said slowly, "Do you remember one day, you found a book with missing pages in a corner?" ”

Tao Xin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood a little.

She had found a book with no title missing pages, and it was not called a book, but rather a copybook. There were no complete sentences, just a lot of words, phrases, and ancient symbols, and there were several pages missing. She admired the calligraphy for a day, and felt that the words and non-words seemed to be full of aura and very beautiful, but when she looked for them again the next day, she couldn't find them.

She almost forgot about it, didn't she expect there to be a mystery in it?
