When we arrived at the top of the fairy rock, we happened to see the boiling stone Taoist sending an old man in his sixties out of the temple, the old man was holding a few bundles of herbs in his hand, and thanked him repeatedly, obviously to ask for medicine.

The person who boiled the stone road still looked sloppy, but it didn't make people feel disgusted, but there was a very real and natural feeling. Once, when I mentioned the stone boiling man to the compass, the compass was very impressed, and he said that if a person does not even clean up his body and the place where he lives, he has reached the realm of no dirt and impurity, no increase or decrease, and no self and human appearance, and the realm is higher than him - I am skeptical about this, because the person who boiled the stone is crazy for more than 20 years, maybe he is used to this way, right? However, there is no doubt that the people of the Boiling Stone Dao have a high level of cultivation in terms of mental nature.

When the boiling stone Taoist saw me, he frowned, and then looked at Huang Yilan or frowned. I arched my hand: "Isn't the Taoist chief welcoming me, weishenme frowned when he saw me?" ”

Boiled stone said: "I haven't seen you for a year, not only have you not improved, but your ferocious spirit has become heavier, alas, ......"

The lack of improvement should be a problem of my short life, and the ferocity is due to the fact that I have killed a lot of people recently, and I said, "Ask for guidance from the Taoist." ”

The boiling stone Taoist shook his head: "I can't guide you, and I can't see your future." ”

I didn't come to ask about the future, so I didn't care, and said sincerely: "I am an ominous person, and I shouldn't have come to this pure place again, but my fiancée Lin Mei received the grace of the Taoist and came to thank the Taoist chief." ”

"Haha, no thanks. Besides, her stepfather is my friend, and she is also my junior, so it is right to take care of her. ”

When Lin Mei saw me call her my fiancée in front of her "elders", she couldn't help blushing, but at the same time, her face was full of happiness.

I said: "I have received the kindness of the Taoist many times, but I can't repay it, this time I went out on a trip, and I dug up some medicinal herbs, hoping that the Taoist would smile and accept it." ”

Xiaoxue immediately put out the medicinal herbs and placed a large piece outside the small temple, and the person who boiled the stone glanced at it in surprise, not calm, and hurriedly rushed over to take a closer look, shouting: "This, this is the humanoid He Shou Wu!" Is this gastrodia, how did it grow so big? I'm afraid this rehmannia plant is hundreds of years old......"

These medicines are all found by Yutu in the depths of Taihang Mountain, all of them are treasures that have been effective for a long time, and it is enough to surprise people when they see one at ordinary times, not to mention that there are so many. Some medicines are not precious for a long time, but grow in the fertile land with sufficient spiritual energy and have a special shape, such as the human-shaped He Shou Wu and the turtle-shaped crane-shaped Fuling, although they cannot live forever after eating, the medicinal effect is much better than that of ordinary ones. Of course, if this special shape of medicinal herb has a chance to live for many years, it is even more ideal after a long time.

The people of the Boiling Stone Dao happily accepted it, even the immortals were a little obsessed, let alone humans? In modern terms, he is an "alchemy control", so he can't refuse precious medicinal materials. He asked me how I could find so many precious herbs, and I laughed but didn't say anything, because I couldn't have transferred Xinyu to him, so why should I let him think about it too much.

After being rejoiced, Lao Dao looked sad again: "Virtuous nephew, will you set up the Spirit Gathering Formation?" ”

"I will be simple, but I will not be complicated."

The Boiling Stone Daoist glanced at Lin Mei and Huang Yilan, and said in a low voice: "With these precious medicinal materials, I can refine some elixirs, but the aura here is insufficient, and the breath of the world is becoming increasingly turbid, and some of the blessed lands of the Cave Heaven have either been made by the laity, or have been occupied by the masters, and I can't find a place to use it." If you can arrange a spirit gathering array, maybe the effect will be better......"

I asked, "How big do you need a Spirit Gathering Array?" ”

"Of course, the bigger the better, the ancient alchemists are all in the cave blessed land, where the aura is very sufficient, to succeed, if the aura is insufficient, it will become a defective or waste product, the effect of the soul revival pill I refined last time is not ideal."

I thought about it for a moment and finally shook my head. I will only have a simple spirit gathering formation, and I can only gather a small area of spiritual energy in the vicinity to assist in casting spells, and what the people who cook the stone path need is a continuous large amount of spiritual energy, which cannot be satisfied.

I didn't recommend the leyline aura in the depths of Yunding Mountain to the people of the Boiling Stone Dao, because that aura is not easy to use and is not pure, and the elixir that cannot be refined will not become an elixir but a poison pill.

Since the Han Dynasty, there are very few people who have become immortals, and after the Tang Dynasty, the immortal road has almost been cut off, a big reason is that the aura in the world has weakened, the practice efficiency is low, and the high-level pill refining is not successful, how can you become an immortal? Especially in modern times, human beings have wreaked havoc, the environment has been seriously damaged and polluted, and the earth has almost become a garbage dump, and even drinking water and breathing are about to be unguaranteed, let alone cultivating immortals?

I have talked to Master about this topic for a long time, and the ancient alchemy method is now ineffective, and the reason is that the spiritual energy is insufficient. With enough aura, those dansha, realgar, cishi, sulfur and the like can undergo qualitative changes and become elixirs when they are refined; Without enough aura, these materials just carry out simple chemical reactions, which are highly toxic, and a hundred people eat ninety or ninety people to die, and the remaining one will become crazy if he does not die.

The general environment is like this, my ability is limited, and I can't fulfill the alchemy dream of boiling stone Dao people. Fortunately, most of the pills he refined were herbs and trees, and if he failed, the effect was poor or ineffective, and he generally did not poison people, not as dangerous as the Jinshi Pill.

It didn't take long for me to take Master's relics and leave. Before leaving, Huang Yilan asked the boiled stone Taoist if his relatives were alive, and the boiled stone Taoist said that his parents were alive, but he didn't know where they were, Huang Yilan was originally asking for peace of mind, knowing that his parents were still alive, and his mood was much better.

Nothing special happened on the way home, Lin Mei and I had a lot to say, but first, because Huang Yilan was there, and secondly, Xiaoxue was pervasive and jealous, with these two big bulbs, we could only understand the unspeakable. In fact, there is no need to say anything, a look, a smile, we already feel very happy, it doesn't matter how much we have suffered in the past, the important thing is that we are together now.

Back home, we immediately began to prepare for departure, our destination said to be in Zhangjiajie, in fact, it is still far from Zhangjiajie, to be precise, in Yuanling County, between Zhangjiajie and Jishou, formerly known as Chenzhou, the older generation and Taoist monks are also used to calling it Chenzhou.

Lu Chengshan found out that Cangwu's photo was very similar to my enemy from the palace and host information registered in the country, and he had never been there, according to his guess, the ethnic minorities in that area were more xenophobic, and they might not understand the language, so it was best to find a guide in advance, so as not to cause trouble.

In order not to attract attention, we have to go as a tourist, Gao Feng dressed as an artist with long hair, a compass wearing a hat to cover his bald head, and then wearing a regular dress. Lu Chengshan's route for us is to take a car to Yingtan first, and then take a train to Jishou via Nanchang and Changsha, and then go on the road after finding a good guide.

It's been another long journey......

I bought a mobile phone and called Lao Lin, and I was scolded without any suspense, because I hadn't called him for a whole year. Lao Lin once spent the New Year in my hometown, and he couldn't find me and Lin Mei when he asked around, so it's no wonder he was angry, but fortunately he didn't know that I had lost Lin Mei, otherwise he might have chased me and slapped me twice.

Later, Lin Mei took the mobile phone and relieved me, the difference between men and women is vividly reflected at this time, Lao Lin scolded me fiercely, but he didn't scold Lin Mei. After that, I also called Mr. Lin in Fuzhou, who is now doing well and has several titles such as a deputy to the Municipal People's Congress and the chairman of a chamber of commerce, and he is proud of his life. He repeatedly asked me to be his "advisor", and I can only say that I am very busy now and will talk about it when I have time.

Originally, I was worried that the two small groups would be noisy along the way, but I was worried. After the punishment of the blood jade and Lu Chengshan's education, Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng's arrogance was greatly reduced, and they were very polite and friendly to us. In fact, both of them are very good people, they are outstanding, well-informed, talkative, and they are still very attractive when they put down the shelf. Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei are both child-like, and grudges come and go quickly, and they were captured by the large number of snacks they bought not long after they hit the road, and they also said that they responded to the call of the senior brother and went deep behind the enemy to find out information......

Compass and Huang Yilan and Lu Qingwen had no enmity in the first place, and soon became a mess with them. I was stressed, had a heavy mood, and was too lazy to talk. Lin Mei didn't like to get together with others, and she had a grudge against Lu Qingwen, so she spent most of her time with me, chatting a few words occasionally, and it looked like the two of us were left out in the cold.

When we arrived at the train station, Lu Qingwen rushed to buy tickets and bought soft sleepers for all of us, which won the favor of Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei. In the past, the journey back and forth to Luoyang was farther, I bought a hard seated ticket, and the bones of the whole body fell apart after sitting for a long time, compared with the comfortable soft sleeper "hatchback", there is a world of difference, so my senior brother has become Zhou Papi Huang Laocai - they don't know that I have good intentions, and I am cultivating their good quality of hard-working and hard-working, will I lack that money?

After getting in the car, I found out that I, Lin Mei, Ouyang Zhenfei, and Lu Qingwen had a private room, and Kompasu, Huang Yilan, Ling Fengpiao, and Gao Feng had a private room, and suddenly I had a feeling of living in a girls' dormitory. How could it be so coincidental, could it be that Lu Qingwen arranged it on purpose? Five men and three women are not easy to distribute, and it seems that my character is more reliable, so Lu Qingwen secretly moved and arranged me in the "girls' dormitory".

They all knew that I liked to be quiet, and after tidying up, they went to the "boys' dormitory" to make a fuss, and only Lin Mei and I were in the room. We sat at the coffee table, and I told Lin Mei the thrilling stories we had encountered, and Xiaoxue interjected a few words by chance. There was a commotion next door for a while, Ouyang Zhenfei began to show Gao Feng his face, blowing the sky, she had a lot of talent as a goddess, and she made Gao Feng dizzy.

Lu Qingwen came back suddenly, I thought she was coming back to get something to eat, but she walked straight up to me: "Brother Xuanming, Xiaofei said that she learned her fortune-telling skills from you, is it true?" ”

"yes." I looked at her in amazement, not knowing what she meant.

"Then you must be more powerful, help me take a look." As she spoke, she held out her right hand to me.

I'm stunned there, you don't need to stretch out your hand to me, do I take it or not? If you don't stretch it, it looks like a little child, take it, this hand is white and delicate, and the five fingers are slender and slender like spring onions, I am really embarrassed to touch it, let alone in front of Lin Mei and Xiaoxue.
