Chapter 21: Riding a Donkey to Find a Donkey

"Riding a donkey to find a donkey? Elder Yun, what do you mean by that? Sun Yi'an suddenly stopped his figure and turned around and asked.

"Want to know? Then go to Ximiaofeng and get two pots of apricot blossoms for the old man! Elder Yun said.

Sun Yi'an was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "Elder Yun, you are really a lion's mouth, Uncle Liu's apricot blossom roast is something that both the family master and the sect master can ask for, how can it be something that one of my famous disciples in the Qi refining period can get." ”

"What is there if there is no good wine? Since you can't get the apricot blossom roast, the Peiling wine brewed by the Song Dan master in Donglingfeng, you can barely make do with it if you get seven or eight jars for the old man. Elder Yun said leisurely.

Elder Yun said with a smile, the disciple was just a junior in the Qi refining period who had just started, and his monthly salary was only five low-grade spirit stones. How can you afford seven or eight pots of Peiling wine? Sun Yi'an smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"There is no wine, this matter is not mentioned, your baby hurry up!" Elder Yun said and lay back on the bamboo chair with an impatient look.

Sun Yi'an stayed in place for a while, and said with a little embarrassment: "Elder Yun, the disciple will discuss with you, at the moment, the disciple really can't afford to buy seven or eight pots of spirit wine, tomorrow the disciple will go to buy two or three altars for you to send to you, and the rest will be left for the disciple to buy enough spirit stones in the future to honor you, do you think this is okay?" ”

After hearing this, Elder Yun glanced at Sun Yi'an with slanted eyes, and said, "It's the first time that someone has taken credit from the old man...... Okay, the old man will promise you for the time being. Tomorrow, you will bring the wine first, if the old man is happy to drink, it is not impossible to point you out one or two, now you get out of here! After speaking, his eyes narrowed, and he no longer bothered with Sun Yi'an.

Sun Yi'an was overjoyed after hearing this, since Elder Yun was relieved, there was a drama in this matter. After retreating, he stepped on the flying sword and returned to the Medicine Immortal Valley.

At noon on the second day, Sun Yi'an appeared at the door of Tianque Pavilion again, but today he did not enter the door directly, but stood quietly at the door, waiting for Elder Yun who was lying on the bamboo chair and sleeping soundly.

"Little baby, did you bring the wine?" After waiting for an hour, Elder Yun asked with a yawn.

Sun Yi'an reached out and touched the storage bag, and three delicate and abnormal small wine jars appeared in front of Elder Yun. Then he said respectfully: "The disciple only bought three altars, and the remaining altars of disciples will definitely make up for you in the future." ”

Elder Yun didn't drink in a hurry this time, after opening one of the wine jars and sniffing it with his nose, he slowly resealed the wine jar, and then said, "Let me ask you, before entering this sect, who did you follow to cultivate?" ”

Sun Yi'an's heart suddenly tightened, he didn't want anyone to know about the matter of Guangfa Immortal Jun. After all, according to the Guangfa Immortal Monarch, he is an immortal from the fairy world! According to many classic records, any clues related to immortals in history have caused a great chaos in the cultivation world. A low-level cultivator like him, once he is involved in this kind of whirlpool, he will definitely not be able to die even a scum!

With a sharp turn of thought, Sun Yi'an spoke: "Before the disciple entered the sect, by chance, under the guidance of a strange person, he entered the ranks of cultivation, and then he has been exploring and cultivating on his own. ”

"Humph! Groping for yourself? Although the old man is now cultivated to one out of ten, his vision is still there, but it is not comparable to the old man Yang on the Rising Sun Peak and the reckless man Geng Pojun on the Xixiong Peak!

"They are blind, only if you are a mountain and a wild cultivator, how can you hide it from the old man? A few days ago, the old man saw that you were trying to run the exercises in the Tianque Pavilion, and the speed of absorbing spiritual power was extraordinary, which was still better than the exercises that the old man practiced back then. How can this kind of exercise be something that you can find out on your own in the Qi refining period? ”

"This ...... Elder Yun's eyes were like torches, and the exercises cultivated by his disciples were indeed obtained from that strange person! Sun Yi'an hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth to admit.

"Tell me, what does that strange man look like? What was left for you besides teaching you exercises? Elder Yun asked.

"What does it look like...... What is left behind...... Yes! I'll show you! Sun Yi'an thought for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and actually described the appearance of the old man named Huazi who died in the hands of the old man in the golden robe to this Elder Yun, and took out the book of "Immortal Beggars Gate Basic Exercises" from the storage bag and handed it to Elder Yun with both hands.

"Immortal Beggar...... These gang of Hanako disciples have always done whatever they want, maybe it's really some old monster...... Forget it, the old man doesn't bother to pursue these things. Since he received your baby's wine, the old man will tell you a word or two. ”

Sun Yi'an suddenly came to his senses and put on an attitude of humbly seeking advice.

"You baby don't have to look for any more exercises, the exercises you are practicing now are the most suitable for you. It is estimated that that person saw that you were carrying the Five Elements Heavenly Root, so he taught you this exercise. Elder Yun spoke.

"That's all? But I don't want to practice this exercise! Sun Yi'an was depressed for a while, his feelings consumed all the spirit stones on his body, and he nodded and begged for a long time to ask for such a few nonsense words?

Elder Yun's face turned cold, and he said, "Hmph! You don't have to carry a heavy treasure without knowing it, although the old man doesn't know what kind of supernatural person taught you, but it is by no means comparable to the idle exercise!

"If it weren't for the fact that the old man had already died of his cultivation heart, he would have to stop your Yuan Shen and torture it!

"With your Five Elements Heavenly Root, if you leave this exercise, if you don't have the power of the sect to cultivate at any cost, your baby will stay in the Qi refining period for the rest of your life, and you will not want to go further!"

Sun Yi'an sat on a chair in the courtyard with a gloomy face, thinking silently, and the mountain wolf Lang Xiao also lowered his head and lay listlessly at the gate.

This time, not only did he not get the exercises he wanted, but he used up the spirit stones on his body, which made him feel like stealing chickens and rice.

"Alas~ It seems that I can only continue to practice the Five Elements Returning to the Yuan Gong, but this exercise has obviously been manipulated by the Guangfa Immortal Monarch, in case I encounter this person again in the future, wouldn't I have no power to resist?"

"Forget it, let's practice for the time being, and after breaking through to the foundation building period, let's find an opportunity to change the exercises!"

After pondering for a while, Sun Yi'an got up and walked towards the house, but suddenly turned to look at the gate, and Lang Xiao also straightened his ears and looked in the direction of Beixiong Peak.

In the distance, a figure stepped on a flying sword and flew towards Sun Yi'an's courtyard.

"Huh? Sun Xiucai, didn't you go to Tianque Pavilion today to study hard? Before the person landed, he joked that it was that Senior Brother Zhou.

"Haha, I pinched my fingers and counted that Senior Brother Zhou was coming today, so I waited for the big ride early in the morning." Sun Yi'an replied with a smile.

Since Sun Yi'an entered the Haoyang Sect and lived in the Medicine Immortal Valley, his master Geng Pojun seemed to have forgotten Sun Yi'an, and he never asked him. It's this Senior Brother Zhou, every ten days and a half months, he brings some good wine and food to Sun Yi'an to chat for a while.

Maybe both of them are from a bitter cold background and are of the same age, but they can talk about it. After going back and forth, the two became acquainted. Senior Brother Zhou saw that Sun Yi'an always ran to Tianque Pavilion all day long, so he gave Sun Yi'an the nickname "Xiucai".

"Senior Brother Zhou, Senior Brother, I've been hungry for the roast chicken you brought for a long time, why don't you take it out soon?"

"I said Sun Xiucai, you have always eaten me and drunk me, but I heard that you went to Dongling Peak early yesterday morning to buy several jars of Peiling wine, and today Senior Brother I came specifically for Peiling wine!" Senior Brother Zhou said as he took out a roast chicken from the storage bag.

Sun Yi'an smiled helplessly, and also took out a jar of wine from the storage bag and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "This can let you know that this wine was originally bought to honor Elder Yun." I left a jar privately, and I didn't want to drink it, but it was cheap for you! ”

"Haha! Senior brother will not drink your spiritual wine in vain, and will tell you good news later. Senior Brother Zhou said with a smile.

"Oh? What's the good news? Sun Yi'an asked with a look of surprise.

"Senior brother, you started late, and you don't know some things yet. Every year, our sect will hold an exchange meeting for the disciples below in the later stage of foundation building, so that everyone can exchange with each other what they need for their cultivation. And this year's exchange meeting is only half a month away, so junior disciple, you have to make some preparations in advance, in case you find something you urgently need for cultivation at the exchange meeting, you can greatly speed up your cultivation. Senior Brother Zhou said.

"Swap meeting? I really don't know, junior brother, what things were exchanged at the meeting? Sun Yi'an asked

"Things that can be exchanged include exercises, pills, spiritual weapons, magic weapons, spirit beasts, talismans, and all kinds of rare materials. Of course, if there is no equivalent exchangeable item, it can also be purchased with spirit stones. Every exchange meeting will be presided over by a monk in the late stage of foundation building in the sect, but the late stage monk is generally only responsible for maintaining the order of the exchange meeting, or mediating when the two exchange people have a dispute over the value of their respective items, after all, the late stage of foundation building is already a height that many people can't reach in their lifetime, and few low-level disciples can come up with something that can impress them. Senior Brother Zhou said that it seems that he has participated more than once.

Sun Yi'an's heart moved when he heard this, but then he sighed: "Alas~ Senior Brother Zhou, you don't know, Senior Brother Zhou, I started late, and the dozens of spirit stones that I had accumulated with great difficulty have now bought this spirit wine, and I have nothing on my body, let alone any spiritual elixir, even if I go, there is nothing to exchange." ”

"It's not right for my junior brother to say that, even if you don't exchange with people, it's worth it to open your eyes. Besides, don't you still have a senior brother! When the time comes, if you really have something to look at, and the spirit stone is not enough, senior brother, I can temporarily lend you twenty or thirty yuan! Senior Brother Zhou waved his hand and said with a proud face.

Sun Yi was a little moved, the spirit stone is the same as the gold and silver in the secular world, as the hard currency of the cultivation world, no one will think that he has too many spirit stones.

The spirit stone was not obtained by the monk through cultivation, but was precipitated and accumulated by the land where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was rich. Its function can not only be used to cultivate and replenish the spiritual power in the body, but also in the process of arranging formations, alchemy, refining tools, etc., it needs to be used. For these low-level disciples, twenty or thirty spirit stones were already a very large amount, and ordinary people would not easily lend them to others.

When it was about to get dark, Senior Brother Zhou returned to Xixiong Peak with a wine burp and a magic weapon.

After Sun Yi'an saw Senior Brother Zhou leave, he began to think. If you can have a large number of pills to assist, your cultivation speed will definitely be a thousand miles a day, and the pills are an excellent thing to assist the cultivators in their cultivation and break through the bottleneck. There are even rumors that there are some elixirs, even if ordinary people take one, they can become immortals immediately. Of course, he didn't believe in such nonsense, but it was enough to explain the miraculous effect of the elixir and its importance to the practitioner.

It's a pity that the elixir is such a precious thing, not only is it extremely difficult to find the elixir spirit grass required for refining, and countless people die every year because of the competition for the elixir of the elixir, and the refining skills are even more rare people can master, and the monks of each sect who are proficient in the way of alchemy are extremely important for improving the strength of the entire sect, and all of them are like living treasures. If it weren't for that, how could he easily enter the inner gate of the Haoyang Sect with just one token left behind by that Zhang Dan Master?

As for spiritual weapons, they are even more important to monks, and they are the foundation of whether a cultivator can survive in this cruel cultivation world. There is a high-grade spiritual weapon or magic weapon by his side, which can give the owner the upper hand in a fight with others, and even directly kill a monk of the same rank.

The old man named Hanako he met at the beginning was definitely higher than the golden-robed old man in terms of his own cultivation, but in the end, he lost his life because of the golden silk thread used by the golden-robed old man.

However, for him now, only the lowest level of spiritual weapons can be used at present, and the monks can use magic weapons when they reach the foundation building period, and when they reach the knot stage, they can truly cultivate their own natal magic weapons in their bodies, and the power of magic weapons is not comparable to spiritual weapons and magic weapons.

"It's not that there are no exchangeable things...... Sun Yi'an suddenly muttered to himself, remembering a few things that had been left in the storage bag for a long time.
