The comings and goings of the past few years.

Lu Changan noticed that Guan Lao wanted to entrust the female apprentice to himself.

He once euphemistically expressed: He is determined to practice, at least he has no plans to marry a wife and have children before building a foundation.

"Chang'an, you have been practicing alone all the year round, even if you don't marry a wife and have children, you also need a maid and concubine to take care of your life by your side."

Guan Lao smiled, and his words at this time were almost clear.

Over the years, Lu Changan's talent, character, and behavior have been recognized by Guan Lao, especially behind the foundation of the sect.

Guan Lao knew that Guan Qiaozhi was not worthy of Lu Chang'an.

If he goes to be a concubine, it is enough to make him feel at ease.

Compared to the money-hungry and lustful Dewey.

Lu Changan, who knows the roots, is too reliable, and I believe that he will not treat his female apprentice badly.

The status of the concubine is not high, but by Lu Chang'an's side, at least there is no need to compete for favor.

"Senior Sister Qiaozhi is beautiful and wise, and she is clever, if she is a maid and concubine, she is wronged."

Lu Changan did not directly refuse.

Guan Lao is his immortal leader, and if he can take care of it, he can understand a cause and effect.

Guan Qiaozhi is very caring, good cooking, and comes to take care of housework and feed pets, which can improve Lu Changan's quality of life.

Moreover, Guan Qiaozhi's ingenuity and talent are good at making rune paper, which also has an effect on Lu Changan.

"Guan Lao should think carefully."

Lu Changan's tone was solemn, and he proposed:

"In fact, there is another way: I can recommend Qiaozhi to the Mujia family in Feiyue Lake, she has spiritual root qualifications and skills, and it is not difficult to live and work in peace and contentment."

"I'm tired of Master Lu Fu's advice, and I have to consult Qiaozhi on this matter."

Guan Lao nodded, very pleased.

Whether the female apprentice entrusts it to Lu Chang'an or goes to Feiyue Lake Mu's house, it is a more reliable choice.

……

A few days later, Lu Changan was invited to Dewey's Mansion again.

Dewey set up a banquet to entertain, and the ingredients cost dozens of spirit stones, which was very enthusiastic.

"Lu Daoyou is actually friends with the 'Black Iron Mask' of Jinyun Valley?"

Dewey said in surprise.

"Black Iron Sheet" is Zhang Tieshan's nickname.

Because in the sect law enforcement hall, the treatment of those who violate the rules of the sect is ruthless and unsympathetic, so it has this reputation.

In addition, Zhang Tieshan's combat skills are strong, and he has captured and killed many wanted evil cultivators, even in Huanglong Immortal City.

"Haha! I have a general relationship with Zhang Tieshan, and the real friend of the sect is another. ”

Lu Changan denied it.

It's okay to have a private relationship with Zhang Tieshan.

This person is estimated to have made a lot of enemies outside, so it is best not to claim to have a good relationship with him.

In addition, Zhang Tieshan, as a low-grade spiritual root, has a much worse qualification than Zhao Siyao, and his advantage is that he is strong-willed.

Coupled with the strong combat method and the steady entry into the foundation building period, Lu Changan guessed that Zhang Tieshan might have an opportunity.

"By the way, Su Daoyou next door, when are you going to find Hua Dan Master for alchemy?"

Lu Changan changed the subject.

Three years ago, the introduction of the Hua Dan division was released into the pigeons.

About a year later, Dewey found another opportunity to take Lu Changan and Su Yuetong to meet Hua Danshi.

The second time, I finally met Hua Danshi.

At that time, Lu Changan presented a two-hundred-year-old medicinal herb, including a few first-order high-grade high-grade talismans, which was familiar with Hua Danshi.

Su Yuetong's gift is more valuable.

Although I can't see the things in the gift box, it can be seen from the kind smile of Hua Danshi,

Su Yuetong obviously impressed Master Huadan, if the materials are collected, he should be able to do alchemy.

"Open the furnace for alchemy, probably in the past two years." Dewey speculated.

"At that time, I hope that Brother Du will take me over to gain knowledge. Maybe the next time the furnace is alchemy, Lu will be a participant. ”

Lu Changan toasted Dewey.

Su Yuetong and others crowdfunded materials for alchemy, and they must go to the scene, otherwise Cheng Dan will be too bad by then, who knows if the Dan master has swallowed up the materials.

Lu Changan wanted to go over to observe, mainly to investigate how Hua Danshi's skills were, and whether his character was reliable.

The word of mouth from outside cannot be fully believed.

"Well said! I'll take you with me then. ”

Dewey toasted with a refreshing drink.

Before parting, he smiled and asked in a low voice:

"Lu Daoyou, have you sorted out the rest of the alchemy inheritance?"

"Oh, I've sorted out half of the rest. If Brother Du is in a hurry, I'll give it to you now. ”

Lu Changan said and handed over a jade cylinder.

Previously, the half of the inheritance he gave to Dewey was mainly the content of first-order alchemy.

The remaining half is the content of the second-order alchemy.

Right now.

Lu Changan cut the remaining half in half, and gave a quarter to Dewey.

The last remaining quarter, naturally, is the essence, and it is still in Lu Changan's hands.

If necessary, it is not impossible to cut another eighth.

"Brother Lu has a heart."

Dewey's face twitched slightly, and his smiling face sent Lu Changan out of the door.

……

Two years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Lu Changan is at least 55 years old.

His alchemy skills have finally steadily stepped into the first order.

Compared with Dewey, the Ge Danshi back then, there is naturally a big gap.

However, he refined several first-order high-grade pills, at least he could save his capital.

Lu Changan's alchemy talent is very mediocre.

To have this progress, it depends on a lot of free time and a long time to slowly boil up.

A powerful divine consciousness also has a bonus to this.

Except for alchemy.

Lu Changan's "Cloud Sand Refining Body Technique" was cultivated to the limit of the third layer, and faintly touched the fourth layer and encountered a bottleneck.

The fourth layer of the body refining recipe corresponds to the early stage of foundation building.

In recent years, Lu Changan has been purchasing a small amount of second-order spiritual sand stone.

"Master Lu, come to my mansion quickly!"

Lu Changan was playing with the Xuanshui Turtle in the courtyard, when a transmission note flew in, and Dewey's voice was heard.

"Is it?"

Lu Chang'an's heart moved, put away the spirit pet, and left Shuiyue Residence.

……

Dan Xinju.

Lu Changan had just entered Dewey's mansion and saw Su Yuetong, who arrived almost at the same time.

This time, Su Yuetong is more than one person.

There was an extra thin man with a sallow face refining the ninth layer of Qi refining beside him.

Lu Changan sensed that this person, whether it was cultivation or divine sense, had reached the limit of the ninth layer of qi refining, surpassing many of the same level.

"This is my fellow Daoist, Nie Xiang."

Su Yuetong briefly introduced.

The tall and thin man "Nie Xiang" was silent, and glanced at Lu Changan with his chin headed.

The man's gaze was as calm as a dead lake.

Lu Changan faintly felt a sinister aura.

Huanglong Immortal City is adjacent to the Black Mist Mountain Range, and the surrounding area is relatively chaotic. Being able to cultivate to the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining is by no means good at being with others, most of them have experienced killing, and it is normal to have evil qi.

"A few Taoist friends have arrived, follow me to the Master's Mansion."

Dewey didn't talk any nonsense and set off with the three of them.

……

Not long after, a group of four people flew to Huanglongfang at the foot of Huanglong Mountain.

From time to time, there is the smell of a monk in the foundation building period, and a few people are cautious when flying.

Lu Changan entered Hua Danshi's mansion for the third time.

This time, Dewey did not report and directly led the three to the alchemy hall at the back of the mansion.

In the courtyard in front of the Alchemy Hall.

In addition to Lu Changan and his party, there were also two groups of people, a total of five or six people.

These two groups of people have leaders at the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining.

They are a plump and beautiful woman in her forties, and a young man in a long shirt with a dashing demeanor.

During the conversation, he was called Mrs. Liu and Zhou Gongzi.

Mrs. Liu was introduced by another disciple of Hua Danshi.

Zhou Gongzi contacted Hua Danshi from other ways.

At this time, a thin old man with crane hair and a childish face walked out of the alchemy hall, and the mana aura on his body was like that of a monk in the foundation building period.

"Hua Danshi."

All the cultivators present bowed their hands one after another.

"Take out your materials and check them out."

Hua Danshi's divine sense swept away, and he bowed his head at the leaders of the three parties.

Zhou Gongzi, Mrs. Liu, and Su Yuetong each took out the materials in the storage bag.

Nie Xiang behind Su Yuetong has always been low-key and silent, and the entertainment is handed over to the Taoist couple.

"It is not easy for Zhou Gongzi to get this three-hundred-year-old Xuanling Fruit."

When counting the materials, Hua Danshi praised and commented.

The value of the Great Elixir of Spirit Herbs is not entirely measured by the year.

Ordinary trees, even if they grow for a thousand years, are not worth as much as ten years of elixir.

"Xuanling Fruit, a second-order spirit fruit, has a harsh growth environment, and it is the most precious main material of Zhuji Dan, and it takes three hundred years to reach the standard."

Relevant information came to Lu Changan's mind.

Xuanling Fruit is a strategic resource monopolized by big forces. The Zhujidan materials collected by Lu Changan lack such scarce main materials.

"Well, Phantom Grass, Moonflower Branch, February Tear ......"

Hua Danshi counted the materials provided by Mrs. Liu and Su Yuetong again.

Repeated screening was carried out twice to confirm that the refining materials for Tsukidan were complete.

"Fellow Daoists, before alchemy, the old decay will explain it first. Due to the difficulty of finding materials for Tsukidan, second-order alchemists who are not big forces are not very proficient in refining Tsukidan. ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded slightly.

The second-order Dan Master can refine the Zhuji Dan, but it can't be like ordinary pills, and there are many opportunities to practice.

"The number of times the old decay refines the Tsukidan is not much. Normally, it can become two pills; If you play well, you can become three pills; If you're unlucky, you might only end up with one. ”

Hua Danshi: This is a scandalous thing to say ahead.

He is willing to refining, in addition to the due reward, he can have more experience in training, which is also a reason.
