Lin Huaizhu followed behind Fairy Yunwei all the way to eat and drink all night, and when the excitement dissipated, he returned to the inn with the satisfaction of eating and drinking.

The next day, because the flying magic weapon could not be directly deployed in the city, she followed Fairy Yunwei to the outskirts of Andu City, watched her throw out the wooden boat, took a group of Taichumen disciples to ride, waved goodbye to her, and finally watched them fly to the edge of the sky and become a small point, before slowly turning around and returning to Andu City.

***

This is a study, whether it is furnished or style, it exudes a solemn majesty, which makes people feel intimidated.

The guard kneeling on one knee at the desk bowed his head and waited for instructions from the person in front of him.

The man stood with his back to him, standing in front of the bookshelf, holding a scroll, tall and tall, looking about forty years old, but still handsome, showing how he looked like Pan An when he was young.

The middle-aged man closed the scroll in his hand, put it back on the shelf, turned around unhurriedly, looked at the guard kneeling in front of him on one knee with a dignified gaze, a trace of coldness appeared on his handsome face, and said, "Look for it again." ”

"Yes!" The person kneeling on the ground jumped in his heart, and he didn't dare to show half a point on his face, so he left the study after answering, and continued to look for the person the middle-aged man asked him to find.

After the guards left, there was only one middle-aged man left in the study, he looked at the empty front, and said to the air: "Mr. Liao, what do you think?" ”

A person suddenly came out behind the middle-aged man, it turned out that he had been in the study all along, but he was hidden in the corner, covered by shadows, which was difficult for people to detect.

Mr. Liao listened to the man's question, pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "It is not clear whether the Wuling Clan is really as Liao said in the ancient books, but the aura of the cultivation realm is decreasing day by day, yes, if it is according to the records of the head of the family from generation to generation, I am afraid that the above point of 'in the cultivation realm will be completely empty in more than a thousand years' is true." ”

Gu Cheng frowned, put one hand behind his back, and tapped the desk with the other, and muttered for a moment.

Mr. Liao is a strategist of the Gu family, and the only record he said about the head of the family passed down from generation to generation comes from an old ancestor of the Gu family 15,000 years ago.

This old ancestor's cultivation was in the late stage of the transformation of the gods, and during a certain concentrating cultivation, for some reason, his heart suddenly moved, and he had a vague premonition, feeling that after fifteen thousand years, the spiritual energy of the Four Seas Continent would dissipate, and he would no longer be able to cultivate spiritually.

This thought was too terrifying, and the old ancestor couldn't concentrate on cultivation under the horror, and it wasn't until Shou Yuan was approaching that he called the then head of the Gu family to him and told him about this premonition.

For the sake of the stability of the family and not to let the clansmen cause a sensation, he also repeatedly demanded that this matter should not be spread outside, and only the head of the family was qualified to know.

The previous heads of the family at the beginning didn't take it seriously, and the Four Seas Continent was full of spiritual energy, so how could they say that they would disperse.

It wasn't until Gu Cheng's grandfather, the previous head of the family, felt that the aura was indeed decreasing year by year, that he took it seriously.

The dissipation of aura is not a trivial matter, this is the root of all spiritual cultivation, starting from Gu Cheng's grandfather, the Gu family has been committed to investigating the reasons why the aura is decreasing, and figuring out how to keep the current aura.

After thousands of years of investigation, the reason has come to an eyebrow, that is, the aura released by all the spiritual veins is gradually decreasing, and it is not caused by external forces.

The spiritual vein is the source of the aura, and the amount of release cannot be determined by artificially, so the Gu family set their sights on how to retain the current aura.

It's a pity that this method was not solved until the Gu family passed it down to Gu Cheng.

Finally, a few days ago, when Gu Cheng was flipping through the family collection, he found an old book with no words on the cover, which looked like a record.

Because of curiosity, Gu Cheng brought this book back to read it, and when he looked at it, he found a name that he had never heard of, the Wuling Clan.

The ability of the Witch Spirit Clan is the key to solving this matter, so he sent people around to inquire.

It's a pity that the news that came back was that the Wuling Clan had been wiped out 10,000 years ago, and the few remaining clansmen had fled to the secular world to live in seclusion, making it difficult to search for traces of their descendants.

Thinking that there would be no more aura in the Four Seas Continent in the future, Gu Cheng gave a ruthless order that he must find it.

This is the scene in the study before.

Mr. Liao also knew the seriousness of the problem, and all the monks who relied on spiritual energy cultivation were all related to it, so he couldn't help but open his mouth to make a suggestion: "Family master, this matter is extraordinary, relying only on the strength of the Gu family, I am afraid it will be difficult to get anything." ”

"What do you mean......" Gu Cheng frowned, knowing that he was right, he turned to look at him, as if he knew what he wanted to say.

Really......

"The dissipation of the aura is too shocking, and it's not our clan's business, at this time, we should pass this news to the other family heads and gather everyone's strength to think of countermeasures." Mr. Liao persuaded.

Gu Cheng was silent, he stood in place and thought for a while, thinking about the pros and cons.

He hadn't thought about spreading things out before, not wanting to be that good person and silently contribute to the cultivation realm, but wanting to hold the method of retaining the aura in his hands, and when the aura dissipated, the Gu family, who had prepared early, would be able to seize the opportunity and take the lead!

To put it bluntly, who will do things without interest, he is willing to look for them, just to give the family a chance to become stronger.

Now that he has heard Mr. Liao's words, although he knows that what he said is right, Gu Cheng is still a little unwilling.

So he waved his hand and said to Mr. Liao: "Mr. has a good idea, the power of the people is indeed much stronger than the search of the Gu family alone, but I think that the current cultivation realm has not yet reached this point, isn't it more than a thousand years before the aura dissipates, there is enough time, and this matter is not in a hurry." ”

Mr. Liao understood what he was thinking, but he didn't object, and acquiesced to Gu Cheng's words.

Gu Cheng chose to hide it in order to let the Gu family go to the next level, how could he not cling to the Gu family in order to climb further.

Therefore, Mr. Liao said obediently: "Yes." ”

……

Lin Huaizhu remembered that day that the shopkeeper said that he had leaked his mouth, and she always wanted to go and see it, after all, she had never been to it once in her two lives combined, and she was really curious.

That day, when parting in front of the restaurant watching the pharmacist competition, Si Che Daojun told her about the small courtyard where he lived.

Only then did she know that Si Che had traveled around all these years, and had been to some places more than once, and he thought that the inn was troublesome, and there were many people, so he simply set up a small courtyard, and lived in it casually and comfortably.

Originally, she wanted to ask Si Che Daojun to take her, but on the way to find him, Lin Huaizhu felt that it was inappropriate.

What if Si Che Daojun didn't take her and sued her master?

Lin Huaizhu thought about it and decisively decided to go alone.

So in the evening, she inquired all the way to the place in the strange eyes of everyone, stood outside the door of Cuixian Fang and took a look, sure enough, as rumored, carved fences and jade masonry, magnificent.

There are several big red lanterns hanging at the door, and the vermilion lacquer pillars are carved with a peony pattern painted with gold dust.

It is worthy of being the first Cuixian Fang in Andu City, and it is really heroic.

took a step forward and was about to go in directly, but was stopped by the turtle who greeted him at the door.

"Stop, who are you?" The two turtle males came up one after the other, and one of them looked Lin Huaizhu's dress up and down with a long face, lifted his sleeves and asked with a disgusted expression.

"Who am I? Of course, it's a guest here, otherwise what else could it be? ”

"Yo, you kid has sharp teeth, and you can talk a lot." One of them, a turtle with a long face, narrowed his eyes and waved his hand to chase her like a fly, "Do you know where we are?" The most famous gentle township in Andu City, look at your poor appearance, I'm afraid that there are not enough spirit stones to go in and drink a pot of tea, so you better hurry up and leave, don't delay our work. ”

Lin Huaizhu was unhappy, staring at this long face and said very unhappily: "Since I dare to come, I am naturally not afraid that I will not be able to settle the account, but you don't allow me to go in, what's the matter, you Cuixianfang is open for business, and you have to pick guests first?" ”

The long-faced turtle raised his eyebrows, and when he saw that she looked vibrating and unwilling to back down at all, he said unceremoniously: "Of course Cuixianfang will not pick guests, but which guest who comes here is not wearing brocade clothes and jade belts, gorgeous crowns and beautiful clothes, you look at you again, you are dressed so plainly, do you know that a pot of tea here will cost a medium-grade spirit stone?" ”

Doesn't this still look down on her!

Lin Huaizhu had a dark face and was about to speak, when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Lin Daoyou, it's such a coincidence that I met you here."

She subconsciously turned her head and found that the person who came was indeed Wei Yuanfan.

"Coincidentally? This is Tsui Senfang. ”

Wei Yuanfan glanced in the direction indicated by her eyes, and said with a gentle smile: "It is precisely because this is Cuixian Fang that I don't think Lin Daoyou will come here." ”

Lin Huaizhu snorted dissatisfiedly when he heard this pun, and deliberately found fault and said, "Wei Daojun really thinks that I can't get out of the spirit stone here?" Or do I look too young to come here? ”

Anyway, the people who are with Su Qingran are not good people! Lin Huaizhu said angrily in his heart.

"Wei didn't mean that, Lin Daoyou don't think so." Wei Yuanfan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained.

Lin Huaizhu stood aside with his chest crossed, turned his head, and did not answer.

"Maybe Wei Mou made a mistake in his expression, so that Lin Daoyou misunderstood, it was my fault, since this is the case, it is better for me to be the east, invite Lin Daoyou to go to the restaurant to sit, the right is that I apologize to Daoyou, the crime of slip of the tongue."

Lin Huaizhu glanced at him and refused: "No need, I and Wei Daojun are nodding friends, I can't be so polite to Daojun, and I still have something to do, so I won't bother Daojun." ”

was rejected by her tough attitude, Wei Yuanfan couldn't help but touch his nose, looking helpless.

Before he came out this time, he had always felt that he was quite popular, not to mention that he had a high rank in the sect, but he could mingle with his disciples.

The disciples in the sect called him his little uncle on the lips, and at the same time called him brother and brother, and there were many female cultivators who had a crush on him among the disciples to show him favor.

Even in the previous few trips, the worst relationship between the people he made was that he could say hello when he met, but when he arrived at Lin Huaizhu, he obviously felt that the other party did not like it.

Why?

Wei Yuanfan is really puzzled.
