Inside Muxiu Peak.

Tang Ping landed lightly in front of a small courtyard, one side of which was a beautiful forest, and the other side was facing a clear river with a rumbling sound. The small courtyard is surrounded by pink and white walls, black wall tiles, when Tang Ping fell, he also saw a delicate two-story building in the courtyard, glanced at the open window, and saw that the furnishings inside seemed to be a woman's boudoir, so he wanted to knock on the door to inquire.

The door was a round moon door, two wooden doors that had been brushed with oil several times, and Tang Ping's fingers gently knocked on them.

The one who opened the door was a girl a few years older than Tang Ping, and her face was also delicate, but her eyebrows and eyes were slightly sharp.

"This sister, excuse me, I'm here to find someone, does my sister know where Li Jian is practicing? Just point it out for me. ”

To say that Tang Ping's etiquette is also comprehensive, I thought that the other party would tell herself even if she didn't want to be disturbed, but when the girl heard Li Jian's name, her face suddenly sank.

"I don't know!" Almost with a shout, the girl slammed the door back.

Although she wouldn't be hit by the door, Tang Ping was so frightened that she ducked her face back.

"This little girl! What's wrong, I'm just here to inquire, why is it so big-tempered! Tang Ping stared at the door angrily and thought, "No, it must not have anything to do with me knocking on the door, looking at her look just now, she only had a seizure when I mentioned the word Li Jian, but Brother Li is such a stable person, how could he provoke her?" Who is she? ”

Thinking of this, a figure flying over the forest was seen in the corner of his eye, Tang Ping glared at the wooden door hatefully, and flew straight towards the person in the forest.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry." Tang Ping recognized that the person was also a Qi refining disciple by his clothes, so he asked politely.

"Oh, Miss Tang!"

"Senior brother recognizes me?" Tang Ping was curious.

"Hehe, I know, I once sent a letter to our seniors Mu Xiufeng, but at that time, Miss Tang was working hard in the yard, it's normal if you don't remember."

This Tang Ping really doesn't have any impression, for a period of time after apprenticing, the master watched it closely, and asked the senior sister to take her to practice every day, I think it was this person who went at that time.

"Then may I ask ......?"

"My surname is Luo"

"Hello Senior Brother Luo."

"Miss Tang, what's the matter?" Senior Brother Naro asked.

"That's the case, I came to find Brother Li Jian, does Senior Brother Luo know where he is practicing?"

"Oh, Senior Brother Li, naturally I know, do you want me to take you there?"

This Senior Brother Luo didn't think about it when he heard that Tang Ping was looking for a male disciple of his own sect, not for anything else, but because Tang Ping was young, not yet at the age when love first opened.

"No need, Senior Brother Luo just pointed it out to me, the scenery here is good, I want to take another turn." The scenery of Muxiu Peak is much stronger than our Shuiyun Valley, and there are too many people there. ”

"There are still many people in Shuiyun Valley? Then you go to Jiuxuan to have a look! Senior Brother Li's residence, you follow the river below, fly all the way over, and when you see a purple bamboo forest, you will arrive, Senior Brother Li lives in a bamboo house by the river, it is not difficult to find. ”

"Thank you, Senior Brother Luo, by the way, are all your Mu Xiufeng's disciples cultivating in such a big place? The view is ok, it's really envious. ”

"That's right, Mu Xiufeng, there are few people, the place is big, our sword cultivation is a static character, so every disciple has a pure place to practice."

"Oh, alas, it's a pity that I can't enter Muxiu Peak, the forest below is so beautiful, and that small courtyard, with mountains and rivers is very chic, it's really comfortable to live in it, who is lucky to live there?"

"Oh, where is it, that's where Senior Sister Yun Xiyun lives, and she cultivates here."

Hearing the name of the little girl below, Tang Ping took her leave.

"Then thank you Senior Brother Luo for showing me the way, I'll go first."

"Miss Tang, please take care of yourself."

When Senior Brother Luo saw that Tang Ping had flown away and wanted to continue his journey, he saw a figure below also coming towards him. It was Yun Xi in the small courtyard, she saw that the girl who knocked on the door chatted with Senior Brother Na Luo for a while, it seemed that the two knew each other, and she was even more curious about what this girl was doing with Li Jian's guy, so she took advantage of Tang Ping's flight away to come over and ask.

"Senior Brother Luo"

"Senior Sister Yun, is there something wrong?"

"Just now I was meditating, as if I heard someone knocking on the door, and when I came out, I saw that little girl flying to you, who is she and is there something wrong?"

"Oh, that little girl, she is not simple, the granddaughter of Elder Tang Bonian Tang of Shuiyun Valley, and the youngest disciple of the famous Guhou Fairy of Shuiyun Valley, she came to find Senior Brother Li Jian, I heard that this Tang girl has been in Youming Valley for a year, I guess I know Senior Brother Li, so I came to play."

"Oh, it's good that I didn't make a mistake, I thought I was slacking off, so I'll leave, Senior Brother Luo."

I didn't expect this little girl to be so big, I knew that I shouldn't have been like that just now, alas, whatever, the sect is not surnamed Tang, doesn't my Yun family have roots in the sect?

This Senior Brother Luo was just about to fly away, and suddenly remembered what a Senior Brother Sun had secretly said to him in the door, this Senior Sister Yun seemed to be very unhappy with Senior Brother Li Jian because of the apprenticeship, but she was afraid that the Tang Ping girl who came to ask her for directions must have been deflated by Senior Sister Yun, so she not only asked for directions but also inquired about the owner of the small courtyard, and that Senior Sister Yun saw that I chatted with the Tang Ping girl for a while, and she must have come to explore the truth, I am afraid that she does not know the origin of this girl, it is estimated that when Tang Ping asked her for directions before, she must have given Tang Ping a look on her face, Seeing her face change just now, she must regret not offending people, hum, interesting!

In the purple bamboo forest, Li Jian was meditating, and among the five people, if you talk about the environment for cultivation, he is the most pure and comfortable here.

"Brother Li, Brother Li"

Suddenly someone spoke, as if calling himself, Li Jian opened his eyes and stood up from the futon, the voice sounded familiar, he looked at it for a while, and saw Tang Ping standing outside the bamboo forest.

"Soup Girl"

Li Jian walked out of the bamboo forest with a smile.

"Wow, Brother Li, you are so beautiful here, no, when I go, I will take a few bamboos and transplant them to me, this bamboo is so beautiful."

"Of course no problem, I'll help you get it when you go back, the bamboo here is not ordinary, Zijun bamboo, it is a kind of spiritual bamboo, go, Senior Brother Gao gave me some tea a few days ago, it's very good, please try it."

"Okay, that's it, Brother Li, you are so beautiful here, why do you live in such a bamboo liao, it's too simple, when I came over, I saw a small courtyard with a white wall with a moon gate, and there is a small building inside, how exquisite, and it is comfortable to live."

"White-walled courtyard...... I don't know who lives there, the senior brother who sent the tea to me lives well, there is a side house, very exquisite, only the courtyard wall is built by Senior Brother Gao one by one from the mountains to find stones, it took a lot of thought, and it is also very chic, but I don't like it, it's still so good, as soon as you open the door, it is the mountains and forests, and the horizon is broad. ”

"Well, you're right."

Although Tang Ping was talking, she knew in her heart that it was definitely not the little girl surnamed Yun that Li Jian provoked, so what was the reason? If you don't understand, forget it, let's inquire again.

Li Jian put a small teapot on top of a clay stove, and when he turned around, he saw a small jar on the table, the mud seal was complete, and the black glaze was pasted with a piece of red paper, on which the word "soup" was written in black ink.

"What is this?"

"This is the spirit wine I brewed, please try it, the fruits of the wine are all picked from my sixth grandfather's garden, they are all good things, well, before you work hard, just drink a small bowl, although my technique is still a little worse, but my senior sister tried it, said it's not bad, you try it, and tell me how it is."

Li Jian knew that this was Tang Ping's kindness, so he didn't shirk it, patted open the mud seal, opened the mouth of the altar and smelled it, and said, "Well, it smells good, but it's a pity that you can only drink it when you practice." ”

"Brother Li, how are you in Muxiufeng?"

"This is indeed a good place, the senior brothers are also good to me, and the swordsmanship I cultivate is also what I like, but sometimes I feel that this place is too quiet, and it is better to be lively in Youming Valley."

"I went to see Sister Yan a few days ago, and she is too, alchemy is still early, and now I am still learning how to grow spiritual grass and how to pick spiritual grass, I don't understand. I was also watched closely by my master at the beginning, but today I finally had the opportunity to run out and wander around. ”

"Well, when will you be able to reach the third layer of Qi refining, Miss Tang, what does it look like when you break through, what does it feel like?"

"Brother Li, my cultivation and yours are the same, how can I know, but I also asked my senior sister, she said that when she is about to break through, she will definitely have a feeling, just like a grain of sand in her boots when you walk, you can definitely feel it, don't worry, Brother Li, we have only entered the inner door for a little more than two months, and we should be able to enter the third layer of qi refining after a year and a half."

"Oh, so soon, I thought it would be years."

"The elders said that what our disciples can reflect the personal gap is to start from the third layer of qi refining, the fifth layer is a hurdle, called the small five levels, and if you can pass it, you will have to work hard to build the foundation."

Li Jian nodded and said: "A year and a half, and it will be very soon, when the time comes, we can go around the sect together, I heard you say that it was so lively before, I really want to go and see it." Although I don't look small here, I have a wall in my heart, and this wall is cultivation. ”

Tang Ping didn't stay long at Li Jian's place, drank tea, and really asked Li Jian to help get two purple bamboos to take with him, and then said goodbye and went directly to the Houtu Temple.
