"Did you hear that? Last night, an immortal cultivator passed by our village. ”

"It's a female cultivator!" said Wang Laosan, who was on the watch, when he met someone. ”

"Immortal nuns, isn't that a fairy, it must be beautiful!"

"Tut-tut, I've committed a nymphomaniac again, just because of your appearance, can a fairy take a fancy to you?"

Early in the morning, Lu Zi'an carried a bamboo basket into the mountain to collect elixir, and before he arrived at the entrance of the village, he heard a few scoundrels in the village making jokes.

"Hey, Lu Yeren, go into the mountains to collect medicine again!"

One of the scoundrels shouted at Lu Zi'an, even though Lu Zi'an had chosen to take a detour after seeing them.

"I heard Wang Laosan say, last night's female cultivator also flew to the mountains and disappeared, Lu Yeren, be careful when you go to collect medicine, just your broken appearance, be careful to be killed by the fairy as a fierce beast!"

Another scoundrel with pigtails quipped to take the lead.

"Who knows if you are killed?

"Hahaha. The scoundrels laughed.

Lu Zi'an seemed to have become accustomed to such mockery, and walked around this group of people on his own and walked towards the Hidden Mist Mountain Range.

The Hidden Mist Mountain Range is on the border between the Immortals and the Terrans, saying that it is the border, and the vast majority of the mountains are still on the side of the Terrans, and the fog is shrouded all year round, and it is difficult for ordinary beings to discern the direction in it.

It is precisely because there are few people that the elixir is abundant, and Lu Zi'an can come and go freely every time, not because he has any special abilities, but he does not dare to go deep into it, go around the periphery, and the elixir collected can be exchanged for some food and clothing.

By the stream near the mountain range, Lu Zi'an put down the bamboo basket, lay on a big bluestone and washed his face, his messy hair was not very long, and any of his facial features were not exquisite, but they always had a share of the man's perseverance, which was quite attractive, even if he often collected medicine in the mountains, the fog in the mountains was thick and did not see the light of day, which still made the skin a little dark.

Lu Zi'an carefully looked at his reflection in the water, and couldn't help but smile: "It's good to be happy, hehe." ”

got up and patted the shabby linen clothes, put the bamboo basket on his back, and plunged headlong into the fog.

Every time he walked from the same mountain road, Lu Zi'an clearly remembered the direction he was going, so he didn't stop for a moment, crossing one ravine after another, carefully bypassing every deep pit in his memory, and leaving traces with a knife in a place that was easy to get lost.

It wasn't until he was at the bottom of a hillside that Lu Zi'an breathed a long sigh of relief.

Lu Zi'an often came to this hillside, because the elixirs here were generally not of high level, and there were no cultivators to protect them, and there were many types and numbers.

Lu Zi'an also knows how to go back and forth, and never cuts off the roots of any kind of elixir, so since Lu Zi'an went into the mountains to collect medicine and found this place when he was eight years old, to the eighteen-year-old now, the elixir here has always been very vigorous.

Sometimes Lu Zi'an made a lot of money selling elixirs, and he would buy some cheap seeds to sow here, and it was not too much for this hillside to be regarded as his own land.

"Shengyuan Grass, a first-order low-grade elixir, can restore one's own vitality when taken directly, and the effect of refining into an elixir is better. ”

"Requiem dew, a first-order medium-grade elixir, take the night dew on the requiem leaves, dip a small amount and rub the eyebrows, which can calm the nerves and nourish the soul. ”

"Rootless vine, a first-order low-grade elixir, parasitic on the body of a hundred-year-old tree, containing the essence of the ancient tree, can be refined to heal wounds. ”

......

Lu Zi'an carefully dug or picked, and introduced the level and effect of each elixir as if he had endorsed it, which he had often learned from trading elixirs with those low-level monks.

Since he himself has not cultivated, he does not have the Yuan Force to conceive these picked elixirs, and it is inevitable that the medicinal effect will be lost when he has to trade, so the price has been kept very low by himself.

For those low-level monks, some mundane belongings are of little use, and Lu Zi'an's price here is low, so he doesn't care about the effect of the medicine, he is willing to come to buy the elixir in Lu Zi'an's hand, and Lu Zi'an has been living a decent life with this small business.

Only half an hour later, Lu Zi'an picked up the elixir that could have half a bamboo basket, held it in his arms and padded it.

"Almost, let's pick these today!"

Lu Zi'an nodded with satisfaction, put on the bamboo basket again, but did not return the same way, it was still early, he decided to take a look at the treasure he left!

Straight over the hillside, the fog on the hillside was a little thicker than the bottom of the hillside, but Lu Zi'an did not hesitate, and walked along the hillside, which was the direction of the depths of the Hidden Mist Mountain Range.

After walking for about half an hour, Lu Zi'an stopped and looked around cautiously, before he suddenly accelerated and rushed to the bottom of the hillside.

After a while, it suddenly became clear that this place was a small col.

There is everything in the small col dozens of zhang wide and narrow, a small house made of dead wood is set up on the small steps covered with green moss, there is a piece of reclaimed land in front of the house, and there is even a waterhole next to it, and a budding white lotus flower in the center of the waterhole is swaying lightly, exuding a faint fragrance.

Lu Zi'an smelled it, and immediately felt refreshed, and even the fatigue of just collecting medicine was dissipated a lot.

"The second-order high-grade elixir, the water rhyme snow lotus, take two or three of the most tender petals when it opens, after taking it, it can continue the tendons and bones, and the raw flesh stops bleeding, which is a good medicine for healing!"

Lu Zi'an was very satisfied, "It is estimated that it will bloom in a day or two, and I have to prepare a few boxes that can hold elixir as soon as possible." ”

I went to the cultivated elixir field again to take a look, Lu Zi'an was very satisfied, most of the elixirs planted in the field were first-order high-grade and second-order lower grades, and only that snow lotus was the most precious.

At the beginning, Lu Zi'an also accidentally discovered the water rhyme snow lotus, and settled down by this pool, and after a long time, this place has become his secret base.

Lu Zi'an looked around at the small col and patted his head with a headache,

"Hey, I don't know where to run and go crazy. ”

"Woo~Boom~"

Lu Zi'an whistled briskly, and the crisp sound of the whistle echoed in the small mountain col.

After a while, there was a cry of "oh uh! oh uh!" from the mountains and forests, which seemed to respond.

The mist at the source of the sound was instantly dispersed, and a sturdy red-haired ape went on a rampage, rushing towards Lu Zi'an.

Lu Zi'an not only did not panic, but also did not run, but walked in the direction of the big ape with a smile.

The big ape was not until Lu Zi'an was in front of him, and he was as tall as him, but at this moment he was humming and chirping, and he was extremely flattering.

Lu Zi'an had to reach out and touch its head, the red hair was not only prickly, but also very soft and smooth.

"Xiao An, why don't you stay here and show me medicine, where are you going crazy again?"

Lu Zi'an said with a little worry and blame.

Xiao An is naturally talking about the big ape.

When Lu Zi'an entered the mountain five years ago, he encountered Xiao An, who was still young at the time, stealing his elixir to eat, Lu Zi'an was annoyed, and after several drives, Xiao An not only did not leave, but stuck to him.

After going back and forth, Lu Zi'an found that Xiao An was very smart, and when he was trading elixir in the future, after Lu Zi'an's side knock, he learned from a monk that Xiao An was a red-ground ape, and his adult age could be comparable to a second-order fierce beast.

Over the past few years, Xiao An has been with him from time to time, and he has never seen him go anywhere to find its race, Lu Zi'an thinks that Xiao An may be a "bachelor" like him, so he simply calls him the "An" in his name.

Xiao An heard the worry in Lu Zi'an's words, whimpered a few times, and rubbed Lu Zi'an's hand with his nose.

"Okay, it's okay to see you come back, stay here obediently, don't run around anymore, I'm leaving, I'll come back to see you tomorrow." ”

Lu Zi'an couldn't help but rub the hair on Xiao An's head again, and he was addicted.

"Whew!Wow!"

Xiao An straightened up and jumped, patting his chest, and pointing in the direction it had just come from.

"There's something over there?"

Lu Zi'an asked tentatively.

"Whew!"

Xiao An nodded humanely.

"Then go check it out. Lu Zi'an said.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao An grabbed Lu Zi'an, threw it on his back, and began to carry his four palms and rushed away.

It's not the first time Lu Zi'an has been carried by Xiao An like this, although he thinks that Xiao An is his partner rather than a mount, but he really can't resist the soft temptation, Xiao An's back is definitely the most comfortable bed, Lu Zi'an has always thought so.

Lying on Xiao An's back, feeling the warmth, Lu Zi'an didn't look up, although Xiao An was not yet fully adult and could not reach the speed of a second-order cultivator, but running was definitely a lightning speed for him as a mortal, and it hurt when the wind blew on his face.

It didn't take long for Lu Zi'an to notice that Xiao An's speed was gradually slowing down.

When he stopped completely, Lu Zi'an paddled Xiao An's long hair to the ground, and Xiao An impatiently pushed Lu Zi'an in the direction of a cave.

It's not appropriate to say it's a cave, but the chunks of the mountain are a little sunken at the foot of the mountain.

"Don't move here, I'll go and see. ”

Lu Zi'an cautiously touched the hole, and Xiao An stayed in place and stared, turning around a few times from time to time, beating his chest.

......

"Xiao An, squat down, carry her on your back, go back to the wooden house, quickly!"

Lu Zi'an stumbled and ran out of the hole with a comatose woman in white in his arms.

The woman's robe was full of blood, a wound on her abdomen opened and closed, the yuan force was agitated, and it was constantly repairing, but another inexplicable energy on the wound was constantly stopping, and under a few collisions, the injury was even more serious, and the blood was trickling.

Xiao An knew that the situation was urgent, so he put the woman in white on his back, grabbed Lu Zi'an and began to return the same way, and the speed was a few minutes faster than when he came.

This can hurt Lu Zi'an, the wind hits his face and he can't open his eyes, what does it mean to drink the wind and drink to his heart's content, Lu Zi'an has really experienced it this time.

Back at the mountain pass, Lu Zi'an didn't have time to settle accounts with Xiao An, so he took the woman in white from Xiao An's back and sent her to the wooden house.

In the wooden house, Lu Zi'an tried the snort of the woman in white, but she was not dead, checked the wound on her abdomen, and the strange energy that lingered cut Lu Zi'an's fingers a few times,

"This is a problem!"
