At the call of the little girl, a woman pushed the door and came to her.

She wore her hair in a bun, wore a goose yellow dress, and smiled lightly, looking approachable. Xu is well maintained, if it weren't for a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, anyone who looks at it will feel like he is in his thirties.

Chu Ge's divine sense swept away, this Zhao Ke was an eighth-layer realm of qi refining.

My master was also in his sixties back then, so this ......

"Little friend is looking for me?" Zhao Ke spoke softly, gentle and elegant.

Chu Ge put away his scrutinizing eyes, didn't speak, just gave a salute and handed out something to Zhao Ke, which was the "Green Bamboo Jue".

Zhao Ke took a look, his eyes froze, he looked left and right, and pulled Chu Ge into the back room.

"Junior Chu Ge, I have seen Senior Zhao."

"I know you, Fazhu once mentioned it in the letter." Zhao Kemo rubbed the scroll in his hand, "Since this green bamboo recipe was sent by you, he must have ...... it"

Chu Ge slowly recounted the experience of these years, Ningyu Xiaohui, the master was killed, and escaped by luck after being imprisoned by the demons...... Of course, it is only important to say that it is important, and it is skimmed when it comes to its own secrets.

"Ugh." Zhao Ke sighed heavily, with tears in his eyes, "The old man of Fazhu is a ghost, and in the end, he ended up like this, it's really unpredictable...... Of the few old friends back then, I am now the only one left. ”

"Girl Chu, you've really worked hard all these years." She held Chu Ge's hand as if she was looking at her own child, "However, since you are Fazhu's apprentice, it is naturally up to you to inherit his mantle......"

The senior laughed. Not to mention that my spiritual root is not suitable for the wood system exercises, and now that I am cultivating, I can't talk about accepting apprentices. After this incident, I may go away to practice. ”

"Away?" Zhao Ke was a little surprised, "I see, I understand." It's a good thing for young people to travel far and wide, to sharpen themselves. I don't know where you want to go? ”

"I just have a general idea, I want to go to the Zhongyuan Domain to see it." Chu Ge told the truth.

"Zhongyuan Domain?" Zhao Ke frowned, "If you haven't settled down yet, it's better not to go to this Zhongyuan domain now." ”

"Why is that?" This time it was Chu Ge's turn to be stunned.

"Don't you know, the Zhongyuan Domain Cultivation Realm has become a mess in recent days.

Although the specific reasons are inconsistent, at least half of the sects and sects were involved in the war, and the cultivators suffered countless casualties. It is said that those old monsters who have always stayed out of the matter also intervened, and the situation is changing rapidly, and it will be impossible to stop it for a while.

That is to say, our Ning Domain and the Zhongyuan Domain are separated by natural dangers, otherwise they would have been affected by this war long ago, and it would be impossible for the three major factions to be alone. ”

Chu Ge also frowned and thought about it. Fortunately, I got such news from Zhao Ke today, otherwise I would have broken into the great dispute one day, and I wouldn't know how I died.

It seems that this Zhongyuan domain is impossible to go, and it must be planned again.

Chu Ge was just about to open his mouth to ask about the situation in other domains, but here Zhao Ke took the initiative to mention it:

"Although the Northern Cold Region is vast and sparsely populated, there are many demon sects, they act aggressively, and they are often oppressed by scattered cultivators, and they are in a difficult situation; The Phantom Sea is vast and has unlimited opportunities, but there are many monsters and beasts in the sea, the weather is unpredictable, and there is no place to stay; However, the Nanhua region, although it is not as prosperous as the Zhongyuan, but it is better than there is little chaos, plus the Nanhua monks have a lot of strange spells, and there are many strange sects, so they can increase a lot of knowledge

So, in my opinion, this Nanhua is a place to go. However, no matter where it is, it is better than in this remote corner of the Dongning Domain. ”

"Thank you Senior Zhao for your advice, I may have to think again."

"You can't be called a pointer, you don't always have to be a senior, you don't have to be a senior, you listen to it, call me Aunt Zhao! You just think about it and it would be better to stay with me for a few more days. Zhao Ke patted Chu Ge's hand, his face full of a friendly smile

"I really like you girl the more I look at it, it really looks like my own daughter. Back then, counting your master and me, our group of five was also like brothers, and when I saw you today, I felt like I was back when I was young...... It's a pity that the world is unpredictable, and now only I'm the old woman. ”

"Aunt Zhao doesn't look old, I walked in the door just now, I almost thought I was in the wrong place, and I wanted to call my sister."

"People are almost sixty, what are you called sister" Zhao Ke was modest in his mouth, but he was also praised in his heart

"Just in time for dinner, if you don't have anything to do, just stay for a meal first, Aunt Zhao, I'll show you a hand!"

Chu Ge was not too humble, but stayed to fight.

In the past few years, I have been sleeping in the open air, walking on thin ice, and I dare not slack off on weekdays. When I arrived at this Liufang pawnshop today, Aunt Zhao's kind words were like spring water melting the ice, bringing warmth to my heart, and also reminded Chu Ge of my father and mother who were far away in the sky, I don't know how they are doing.

She was finally relieved of one thing: that is, her heart was not as cold as ice.

She still cares about people and things, has family and friends she wants to protect, and can feel what sincerity is.

Heaven is ruthless, people are affectionate, monks are also human beings, and they also have seven emotions and six desires, love and hatred.

Being able to distinguish, afford, and let go is the best way to sharpen the mind.

It seems that the thing that I thought would change my personality before was purely my own cranky thoughts, and it was nothing.

Tonight was also finally a good night's sleep.

————————

"This is the 'Pei Yuan Dan' pill, which can consolidate the foundation of Pei Yuan and must be of great use to your body. However, you'll have to find the materials yourself. ”

"Thank you, Aunt Zhao." Chu Ge happily took the Dan Fang, his Aunt Zhao was really powerful, and he really found a way to restore the original essence blood from her.

In addition, she also took out the talisman and map fragments from the ghost to ask Zhao Ke for advice, although Zhao Ke didn't recognize the map, but the talisman was really a treasure:

According to Zhao Ke, this talisman is called "Fu Bao", which is a small part of the power of his natal magic weapon sealed by the Jindan period monk and left it for future generations to use. As long as it is activated according to the mantra above, one-fifth of the power of the Jindan monk's blow can be unleashed.

Unfortunately, this rune treasure is a consumable, and it may not be possible to use it again after using it once or twice. Of course, even so, it is also a big killer weapon for Chu Ge now!

"In a few days, it will be the 'Sanxuan Auction', Chu girl, you can also try your luck at the auction, although there are many materials needed for this Pei Yuan Dan, they are all common things, and they should be well saved."

"Sanxuan auction?"

"Hey, I thought you came to Anding City this time, in addition to your master's bequest, you came to this auction."

"......" Chu Ge covered his face silently, feeling that he didn't feel like a monk who had been cultivating for many years.

This is the disadvantage of casual cultivation, unless those old fritters who have been in the cultivation realm for many years, most of them lack both resources and news channels. And the gap between the sect monks and the scattered cultivators is also getting wider and wider.

"This Sanxuan auction is true to its name, it is an auction hosted by the Sanxuanmen" Seeing that Chu Ge didn't seem to know, Zhao Ke explained with a smile:

"This auction is held once every two years, in addition to the Sanxuanmen, some other mountain and wild sects of the Jin Kingdom will also participate, and the location is in this Anding City. As long as there is cultivation, you can participate, and it can be regarded as a small event in the cultivation realm of the Jin Kingdom. It is said that in addition to Qi refining monks, some foundation building period monks will also participate. ”

"Master! Now that I have cultivation, can I also go to the auction to see it! I also want to go with Sister Chu! Zhao Xiaoqiu interjected on the side, his eyes flickering.

This Zhao Xiaoqiu is the child Chu Ge saw at the counter yesterday.

She was an orphan picked up by Zhao Ke, with no name and no surname, so she followed her surname and named Xiaoqiu. Later, because he accidentally found that the child was pregnant with a spiritual root, he always took it with him.

It's not so much an apprentice as a daughter.

"Just rely on your Qi refining layer?" Zhao Keke pointed his finger at Xiaoqiu's nose

"The people who go to that auction are old monsters who have been cultivating for many years, and they can smash you to death with one finger! You, let's concentrate on cultivation first! ”

"Then how many layers of qi refining do I have to go there!" Xiaoqiu puffed up her little face.

"I want to think about it...... At least like your sister Chu, you can refine the fifth layer of qi. ”

"Ahh......h

"Xiaoqiu's talent is so good, he will definitely refine the fifth layer of qi soon." Chu Ge touched Xiaoqiu's head and said with a smile.

She really had the idea of taking Xiaoqiu to see it just now. But if you think about it carefully, there are still many people at the auction, and there are even foundation building monks, if there is any change, I am afraid that the two of them will be implicated.

"By the way, I just remembered when I mentioned this, Fa Zhu said in the letter before that your cultivation has been stagnating at the first level of Qi refining...... But looking at your current fifth-level Qi refining cultivation, there shouldn't be any problems, right? ”

"Mm-hmm, by chance," Chu Ge replied vaguely.

It didn't matter if she said it, but the exercises she gained from the jade pendant were her biggest secret, and she would never tell others easily.

"Okay, then I'll be relieved." Zhao can see that Chu Ge doesn't seem to want to say much, so naturally he won't ask

"You don't need to treat Aunt Zhao as an outsider, if you have any problems in cultivation, just come and ask me. Although my cultivation is low, I also have a nine-layer realm, and I can still give me some pointers. ”

"Then thank you Aunt Zhao." Chu Ge touched his nose, embarrassed to say that he had actually refined qi at the tenth level.

In the next few days, Chu Ge was not idle while waiting for the auction to start, and under the guidance of Zhao Ke, he found some shops run by fellow monks to gather the medicinal materials needed to refine Pei Yuan Dan.

Only then did Chu Ge know that Anding City was only a few dozen miles away from the main sect of the Three Xuanmen, so there were many monks who came and went, and many of them lived together with mortals.

The auction is about to start, and the number of monks on the street has also increased, and Chu Ge can always meet people with cultivation on the street, but they are all in the Qi refining period, and they have never encountered any in the foundation building period.

Chu Ge even met a disciple of the Sanxuanmen, who was wearing a snow-white robe with a straight collar and a large placket, and the collar was decorated with a blue-gold collar, which was very good-looking.

Actually, wouldn't it be good to find a gangster......

The only problem is that with the current spell, most sects may destroy themselves as demons before they can enter the door.

"Eh, I feel that in this auction, there are twice as many people from Sanxuanmen as before......"

Chu Ge passed by a teahouse, heard a monk talking, and quietly turned his divine sense to listen.

The strength of her divine consciousness was under the cultivation of the Dust Cleansing Ballad, and it was difficult for even a monk who cultivated to a level or two higher than her to find out.

"You don't know yet? It is said that there is a disciple in Sanxuanmen, and when he went out, the fate card was broken......"

"The fate card is broken? Isn't that just dead, who is so bold and dares to kill the people of the Three Xuanmen? ”

"Then I don't know, maybe I fell into a ravine? It's just that I heard that in this auction, the Chongyun Sect of Liang State also sent people over, and I don't know if it was suspected of them. ”

"Hey, the Three Xuanmen and the Chongyun Sect have always been at odds, and this time there may be a good show."

Chu Ge was in a cold sweat when he heard it downstairs, and the person from the Sanxuanmen who had died in the mouths of these people must be the outer disciple Li Sanguang. I thought that I did it that day, but I didn't know it, but I didn't think that I would have been known by Sanxuanmen a long time ago.

Fortunately, he was thoughtful and didn't leave any clues, otherwise he might have been approached by Sanxuanmen a long time ago.

The three major factions in Ningyu all have a Yuanying Monk as the Supreme Elder behind them, although this little thing is not worth the Yuanying Monk's departure, but it also shows that these three major factions have a deep heritage in Ningyu.

In addition, I just heard the "life card...... It seems to be something related to the life of the monk. In the future, we must be cautious when we come into contact with these big factions.

Seeing that these monks began to talk about trivial matters, Chu Ge did not stay any longer and returned to the Liufang pawnshop quietly.
