Chapter Ninety-Three: I Can Keep It a Secret
"Boss Zhao, can you come out?"
Zhuang Xing knocked lightly on the room outside Zhao Li's door, and behind him stood Nie Linghui, Zhang Hongye and others.
"Wait. ”
Zhao Li's voice sounded from inside the room.
It was another hour before the door finally opened.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Li opened the door, and suddenly there was a faint smell of fireworks mixed with the smell of some medicinal herbs floating out, and there was a faint spiritual power in the air.
"Ah Li, what have you been doing mysteriously lately?" Lady Nie sniffed the smell in the air and asked strangely.
This is a question that Zhuang Xing, Zhang Hongye, Wen Dashan and others all want to know.
"Can you keep it a secret?" Zhao Li smiled as he looked at the many pairs of curious eyes in front of him.
"Absolutely. ”
Everyone replied in unison.
"I can too. Zhao Li shook his head.
In the past few days, he has been sitting in the room refining things, first extracting the 'silver pith', and then refining the human body magic circle needed to refine the "Night Vortex Stargazing Nebula Map", the reason why it is kept secret from everyone is because the "Night Vortex Stargazing Nebula Map" was learned from the old Taoist of the cloud-piercing son after he made a heart demon contract.
Originally, according to Zhao Li's estimate, it would take him a long time to practice if he wanted to use that copper furnace, let alone refine all kinds of things.
But after absorbing the memory of Shao Dafeng of Xuanhuo Palace, it helped Zhao Li too much.
Xuanhuo Palace was originally an expert in playing with fire, originally Zhao Li's pair of 'Flame Palms' could only release a height of 100 degrees, and if he wanted to achieve a monk-style 'forging', it would take at least a year and a half of study, but with the various skills and experience of Xuanhuo Palace, Zhao Li can now casually release a high temperature of more than 300 degrees, and he can directly try to forge some simple things, which also shows how important the inheritance of the Great Gate School is.
Boss Nie was not unhappy when Zhao Li rejected it so tactfully, after all, all monks have their own secrets, which is normal, she just said again: "Ah Li, the support monk Shang Wenbo who is waiting for the head guard monk of Qingshan City is here, and he will let you go." ”
Zhao Li nodded, sent the door to the room, and walked towards Shang Wenbo's courtyard with the group.
······
When he came to Shang Wenbo's courtyard this time, there was no waitress who came out to greet him, and Zhao Li walked in directly with the group.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he saw a wine table set up in the courtyard, Shang Wenbo and two beautiful female attendants were toasting to several monks at the same table with a smile on their faces, and a few Qi refining monks who should be attendants were standing on the side of the wine table.
There were three new monks, two men and one woman.
Both male cultivators were sword cultivators—this was evident because one of the monks carried a long sword with a magnificent scabbard and a number of precious stones on it, which radiated a dazzling light, while the other monk carried a long sword box carved with various mysterious patterns, each of which rose and fell like a breathing lamp.
There is also a female monk dressed as a Taoist aunt, with a whisk on her hand, the dust tail on this whisk is obviously not an ordinary animal hair, each one is like a silver thread, exuding a slight white glow.
"In Xia Zhaoli, I have seen a few Taoist friends. Zhao Li entered the courtyard and bowed his hand to several new town guard monks at this table, and at the same time felt a little surprised, no wonder Shang Wenbo was so enthusiastic in persuading wine, among the three new town guard monks, the sword cultivator who carried the sword box turned out to be in the middle stage of foundation building, and the other sword cultivator and Dao Gu were also in the early stage of foundation building, and the spiritual power aura on his body was stable and strong, obviously not a mediocre hand.
"Come on, Zhao Zhenshou, come here, let me introduce you to these Taoist friends. Shang Wenbo beckoned to Zhao Li.
"This is a fellow Daoist of the Xingfei Feather of the Longling Sword Sect in Qinxi, it is really rare to be able to come to Qingshan Town to guard, it can also be seen that the Immortal Alliance attaches great importance to this place, those damn Yan Xiu must be no longer a threat!" Shang Wenbo first introduced the mid-stage sword cultivator who was carrying a sword box, and his words were full of admiration.
Qin Xi, Longling Sword Sect!
Zhao Li couldn't help but glance at the sword box on the back of this sword cultivator a few more times, speaking of which, it was because he saw the majestic appearance of the Longling Sword Sect that he inspired Zhao Li to participate in the Xianmen Grand Ceremony.
At the same time, Zhao couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Don't look at the distance from Qingshan City to Yuntai Mountain, but this distant road is only a small part of the Qinzhong region, and the distance from Qinxi to here, if it is according to the trek speed of mortals, I am afraid that it will take ten years.
At such a long distance, it was a bit strange for the Longling Sword Sect to participate in the Battle of Qin Yan in the past, and it was a bit strange to wade through mountains and rivers to a mortal city to be a town guard monk.
Moreover, this Qingshan City is the sphere of influence of the Changge Sect, even if the Longling Sword Sect is strong, the disciples in the sect are also masters, but isn't it much more convenient for the Changge Sect to send a few disciples with higher cultivation to come to Qingshan City?
Xing Feiyu of the Longling Sword Sect was a handsome young and middle-aged monk, judging his age from his appearance, he was roughly in his early thirties, but his face was cold, and when he heard Shang Wenbo's introduction, he only nodded slightly to Zhao Li.
"This one is the Aunt of the Water Moon Dao who does not read the hermitage. Shang Wenbo then introduced the Taoist aunt who was holding a dustbrush.
Compared with Xing Feiyu, Shang Wenbo's introduction to Shuiyue Daogu is a simple sentence.
"Zhao Daoyou, hello. ”
Shuiyue Daogu was very polite, and smiled at Zhao Li, saying that it was Daogu, this Shuiyue actually looked only about twenty-five or sixteen years old.
"I've seen Shuiyue Daoyou. Zhao Li also politely replied, although he had never heard of Bunian Nunnery, but seeing that this Shuiyue Daogu was able to build a foundation at a young age, and the dust on her hand did not look ordinary, even if it was not a magic weapon, it should be a good magic weapon, and the strength of the master must have passed.
In the end, Shang Wenbo introduced the sword cultivator who was carrying a gorgeous gemstone flying sword.
"This is Zhou Yingqi Daoyou of the Jade Sword Gate, Zhou Daoyou is also a master of swordsmanship, and he was besieged by three Yan Xiu on the way here, and finally fought his way out of the siege with one enemy and three enemies. Shang Wenbo's words made Zhao Li's gaze turn around the sword cultivator of the Jade Sword Sect for a long time.
This fellow Daoist named Zhou Yingqi was originally supposed to be quite heroic, but now he has three bright red scars on one side of his cheek, which looks like he has only been injured for a short time, which is a little terrifying.
"A small casual cultivator who has just stepped into the foundation building period, the shelf is not small, and the three of us have waited for you for half an hour. ”
Zhou Yingqi could feel Zhao Li's gaze lingering on the scar on his face for a few seconds, and couldn't help but say in a somewhat unkind tone.
