"100th birthday?"

Lu Changan shook his head with a smile, he had no idea of inviting relatives and friends to hold a birthday banquet.

The age of 100 years is a hurdle for low-level monks.

A considerable number of Qi Refining Cultivators did not live to be a hundred years old.

Falling halfway, fighting with people when you are young, and failing to build a foundation with impact, all kinds of behaviors will affect your lifespan.

Lu Changan guessed that Li Erqing's greeting in advance was not only to maintain friendship, but also to show that he had the idea of holding a 100th birthday banquet.

Li Erqing used to marry a wife and have children, so he liked to hold wine banquets and celebrate lively.

Li Erqing is two years younger than Lu Changan.

If the eldest brother doesn't celebrate his 100th birthday, he will not be able to overcome.

Lu Changan replied to Li Erqing, explaining his situation, so that the other party did not have to scruples.

On his 100th birthday, he will celebrate privately in the cave at most, and he will not hold a grand birthday celebration.

Not long after, Lu Changan received a letter from Jin Yungu again.

"Oh? Zhao Siyao is plotting to build a foundation for a female disciple? ”

Lu Changan's heart moved.

When building the foundation in Huanglong Immortal City, Zhao Siyao once mentioned that he had accepted a female apprentice with very good qualifications in the Zhao family's homeland.

This female disciple's name is Zhao Tan'er, she is two years younger than Mu Bingyun, and she had cultivated to the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining three years ago.

Zhao Tan'er, as a top-grade spiritual root, originally wanted to try the impact without Zhuji Dan, and he was nearly forty percent sure.

Zhao Siyao asked her to wait for insurance.

In the letter, Zhao Siyao asked Lu Changan if he had any extra materials when he planned to build Jidan.

Zhao Siyao's materials were half gathered, lacking Xuan Ling Fruit or special demon cores, as well as some other materials.

"Huh? This is an opportunity. ”

Lu Changan thought of an idea, following the example of the two back then, pretending to cooperate in alchemy.

"If you refine Zhuji Dan in the name of Zhao Siyao, it will be safer for me to secretly provide materials such as special demon cores."

This time, Zhao Siyao plotted to build a foundation for his disciples, which was reasonable.

Zhao Siyao is trustworthy, just let her keep it a secret.

It's a big deal, let Zhao Siyao provide the remaining materials, and when the time comes, she will be given a Zhuji Dan.

Lu Chang'an has collected most of the materials for building Jidan, and there is no shortage of key main materials, but there are several auxiliary drugs, one or two of which are relatively scarce.

In doing so, Lu Changan had to collect the remaining materials again, and at the same time reduced the risk.

Come to think of it.

Lu Changan wrote a letter to Zhao Siyao, saying that he had a small amount of materials for Zhuji Dan and asked her to come and pick them up.

The matter is confidential and not suitable for discussion in the letter.

……

A few months later.

The two white-clothed nuns arrived at Little Turtle Peak.

One of them, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, is very beautiful, graceful, with a fluttering fairy skirt and a calm bearing.

Another girl, with eyebrows like green feathers, smart eyes, muscles like snow, and a light and agile aura.

"I've seen Uncle Lu."

Zhao Tan'er's teeth are like shellfish, and she salutes crisply.

"Well, a good seedling."

Lu Changan bowed his head and said approvingly.

This woman's qualifications are better than Zhao Siyao, similar to his previous life.

In Zhao Tan'er, Lu Changan saw a little shadow of Zhao Siyao when she was a girl.

In terms of personality, Zhao Tan'er is more lively and not so cold.

Less than half an hour after coming to Xiaoguifeng, Zhao Tan'er was familiar with Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun, and played with the Xuanshui Turtle by the pool.

In the cave mansion, Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao talked privately.

"Zhao Daoyou, this is your puppet."

Lu Changan returned an intact turtle puppet to Zhao Siyao.

Two years ago, Zhao Siyao was in distress in a secret realm, leaving only a badly damaged turtle puppet.

Due to the precious materials sold, only half the price was charged, and Lu Changan later promised to repair the puppet for free.

"Lu Daoyou has a heart."

Zhao Siyao put away the puppet and found that not only was it repaired well, but its quality had also improved, close to a second-order mid-grade puppet, and its defense was more outstanding.

We chatted for a while.

Zhao Siyao mentioned the plan of the trip:

"After buying those materials from Lu Daoyou, I am going to take my disciples to Huanglong Immortal City to experience in the Black Mist Mountains, and it would be even better if I could get a special demon core."

"Zhao Daoyou, are you really willing to let such a good seedling take the risk?"

Lu Changan couldn't help laughing.

Top-grade spiritual root, as a disciple of the sect, and with elders to take care of, there is no need to take such a risk.

Special demon core, not so easy to find.

Back then, Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao, plus the second-order rat demon, were lucky, and they also went through risks to get one.

"That's not what I thought."

Zhao Siyao said with a smile.

"Tan'er heard that I went to the Black Mist Mountain Range back then, and you, Uncle Lu, dared to participate in the hunting of second-order demon beasts at the ninth layer of qi refining, which made her quite fascinated and wanted to follow suit."

"Ambitious." Lu Changan praised it.

"At that time, I will hand over the puppet to her to control, as long as it doesn't go too deep, it should be fine."

Zhao Siyao said about his own arrangement.

"Zhao Daoyou, maybe you don't need to go to the Black Mist Mountains......"

Lu Changan changed to Chuanyin and mentioned the matter of cooperating in refining Zhuji Dan.

Hearing this, Zhao Siyao's face showed surprise, and the brilliance flashed in her eyes, and she quickly regained her calm.

Regarding the special demon core, Lu Changan said that it was a stolen substance bought in the black market and asked her to keep it a secret.

At that time, it will be alchemy in the name of Zhao Siyao.

With Zhao Siyao's intelligence, he naturally knew that this matter was not so simple.

When the Black Mist Mountains were battled, coupled with the advanced age of the foundation, she knew that Lu Changan was not an ordinary monk.

"Which Dan master is Lu Daoyou going to find? I heard that the Lin Dan master on your Wuqi Mountain has good attainments. Zhao Siyao said.

Lu Changan didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically:

"Zhao Daoyou, there should be a Dan Master you know."

"In Jinyun Valley, there is a second-order high-grade Dan Master who has a good relationship with me, and you can ask him to help with alchemy privately."

No more than back then. Zhao Siyao, who has built a foundation for decades, is also a senior veteran in Jinyun Valley, and now has good connections.

The Dan master she knew, the proficiency of Zhuji Dan was high, and he could often become three Dans.

"Asking him to do alchemy, is it against the rules of the sect?"

Zhao Siyao said: "As long as the key main drugs and scarce materials are not purchased from the door, they are not considered violations." ”

"That's good."

The two discussed some details.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Siyao still planned to take his disciples to the Black Mist Mountain Range.

After a few months of training, I will take the materials from Lu Changan after I come back.

Lu Changan understood that Zhao Siyao did this, in addition to sharpening his disciples, he could also help himself to cover up, so that the origin of that special demon core could be traced.

Half a day later, Zhao Siyao's master and apprentice left Xiaoguifeng.

Zhao Tan'er was a little reluctant, and waved goodbye to the two daughters of Xuanshui Turtle and Guan Qiaozhi.

……

Half a year later.

Zhao Siyao came back with his disciples and stayed in Xiaoguifeng for half a day.

On this trip, Zhao Siyao didn't get a special demon core in the Black Mist Mountain Range, but only acted in the peripheral area and killed a second-order demon beast that was not strong.

Because there is no shortage of special demon cores, she doesn't need to take risks, just take her disciples to practice.

This time, Zhao Siyao brought a piece of information:

"Lu Daoyou, this time I went to the Black Mist Mountain Range, the demon beasts in the periphery increased abnormally, and the demon beast groups in some mountain ranges migrated to the periphery. In a few years, there may be a small beast tide. ”

"Little Beast Tide?"

Wuqi Mountain, where Lu Changan is located, is some distance away from the Black Mist Mountain Range, so don't worry.

That's not bad news for him.

When there is a beast tide, the sects of the Liang Kingdom cultivating immortals, as well as the immortal cultivation forces near the Black Mist Mountain Range, will organize people to guard the spiritual vein station and kill the demon beasts.

The more monsters are hunted, the price of the talisman materials will be reduced, and it will be easier to buy high-quality materials.

The price of normal talismans will drop a bit.

But Lu Changan took the high-end route.

Moreover, he has a long life, and stocking up on a little high-quality materials during the trough period can ensure stable long-term returns.

Before parting, Lu Changan handed over the materials for Zhuji Dan, including the special demon core, to Zhao Siyao.

He didn't even go to Jinyun Valley together.

Since he chose to trust, the matter was handed over to Zhao Siyao.

In addition to believing in Zhao Siyao's character.

This material for Tsukidan is a windfall he has gained, and even if it is lost, it will not have much impact.

……

Half a month later.

Lu Changan found that Mu Bingyun was a little anxious recently, and her mind occasionally wandered.

During a pre-work preparation for drawing talismans, something went wrong.

In the pavilion next to the lotus pond.

Mu Bingyun brought tea, and Lu Changan asked her to sit down and chat.

In Xiaoguifeng, Mu Bingyun is essentially a mercenary.

By assisting in drawing talismans, making guest appearances as maids, and taking care of mountain affairs, in exchange for the qualification to practice here, he occasionally received guidance from Lu Chang'an.

"Uncle Lu, I want to go out to experience and seek opportunities to build a foundation."

Mu Bingyun sat stiffly, holding the folds of her skirt with her bare hands.

"Are you under the influence of Fairy Zhao's master and apprentice?"

"Bingyun is just inspired by them, mainly from the Feiyue Lake......"

Mu Bingyun's clear face showed a worried and uneasy expression.

"Feiyue Lake?"

Lu Changan was thoughtful.

Over the years, Li Erqing's lineage has become more and more powerful in the Mu family.

The old lineage of the Mu family's lineage, authority and power are about to be surpassed by Li Erqing's new lineage.

If the old lineage does not come out of the foundation building period, the Feiyue Lake Mu family may really have the surname Li in the future.

Even if you don't change your surname Li, it is basically Li Erqing's descendants who are in power.

Mu Bingyun's current situation, whether it is cultivation or Fu Yi, has encountered a bottleneck.

Xiuwei reached the ninth level of qi refining a few years ago, and it had indeed reached the stage of plotting to build a foundation.

In terms of talisman arts, from the first order to the second order, this step is extremely difficult, and it will be affected by cultivation.

"Whether it's a foundation builder or a second-order talisman master, you can't be in a hurry. If you want to go out to practice, Uncle Lu will not stop you and give you a little advice. ”

Lu Changan said calmly.

"Uncle Lu, please speak."

"You don't have enough actual combat ability, think about being attacked in Feiyue Lake back then."

Hearing this, Mu Bingyun's eyes dimmed, and she bowed her head and said nothing.

"If you want to go out to practice, you'd better be able to defeat the two first-order high-grade puppets guarding the mountain, or support the Hundred Breath Time when the Earth Rock Rat is suppressed in the late stage of the first order."

Lu Changan didn't want to recuperate, and after accompanying the deceased for many years, he never returned after going out.

If that were the case, he wouldn't be in a good mood.

Therefore, a suggestion is given.

"Uncle Lu, I listen to you." Although Mu Bingyun was in a hurry, she also knew her own catties.

The days that followed.

Little Turtle Peak has an extra woman in a green skirt who fights against a puppet or a rat demon, although she has failed again and again, she is unswerving.

Looking at the stubborn and beautiful figure.

Lu Changan secretly thought: With the savings of Mu Xiuyun's master and apprentice, plus the funding of the old Mu family, it will definitely be no problem to buy a spirit stone for building the foundation Dan.

……

Two months later, Zhao Siyao came to Xiaoguifeng again.

In the cave, she solemnly handed over a jade bottle.

Lu Changan opened the jade bottle and saw that there were two Tsukidan with a crystal color inside.
