Chapter 144: Measuring Li Xian'er's Spiritual Root
It took a long time for Liu Qing to make Li Xian'er understand her intentions.
"Young Master Liu, don't you really dislike me and want to kick me out?"
"Of course not, isn't the reason why you came to the Qingling Sect with me is to join the Qingling Sect and embark on the path of cultivation?"
"Now the senior I'm going to find for you, he's ......"
Liu Qing thought about it, but she really didn't know where to introduce Li Xian'er to Li Xian'er.
In addition to loving drinking, Li Lao seems to have a lot of treasure books in his hands, and he is accompanied by a powerful Lao Huang.
There's really nothing worth saying.
After a long time, Liu Qing finally took out the sound transmission stone from the storage ring.
For Liu Qing, Li Lao has always been a very mysterious existence.
He comes and goes without a trace, always available anytime and anywhere.
So much so that after many interactions, Liu Qing still doesn't know where he lives.
That was the last time Liu Qing was promoted to a personal disciple and held a celebratory party at home.
Li Laocai established a call connection with himself on his voice transmission stone.
"Uh...... Let me contact Mr. Li first. ”
"I hope he can take it."
After the sound transmission stone flickered a few times, Li Lao's somewhat muddy voice was immediately heard.
Apparently, the mysterious old-timer is in a drunken state again.
"Boy Liu Qing, I heard that you have returned from Snow Cloud City."
"What is the so-called matter of suddenly looking for an old man this time?"
Liu Qing went down the mountain to perform the mission this time, and the reason why he was able to return safely and soundly.
In addition to Jiang Yu and Jiang Qiaowei's hard protection, Lao Huang's protection is also an extremely important reason.
And Lao Huang is Li Lao's close partner, and he will naturally learn the news of Liu Qing's return as soon as possible.
Hearing Li Lao's question, Liu Qing did not rush to answer.
Instead, he took the lead in thanking Li Lao:
"This descent from the mountain is really dangerous, if it weren't for Senior Brother Huang's help, the junior's life would probably not be saved."
"Liu Qing thanks to Senior Li for taking care of him."
Hearing Liu Qing so polite, Li Lao laughed.
"Hey~ You kid is still so outside."
"If you really want to thank me, then prepare a good wine, and I'll be there with Lao Huang later."
Beside Li Lao, Lao Huang heard the word wine.
It was also excited to make a "moo-moo" cry.
"Okay, I'll take out the wine I treasure at home and wait for Elder Li and Senior Brother Huang to come."
"It's easy to say, hey, by the way, you suddenly came to me this time, is it for the little white cat you brought back?"
After talking about the wine, Li Lao suddenly changed his words and shifted his focus to Liu Qing's matter.
After Lao Huang and Liu Qing separated, they immediately rushed back to tell the whole story of the trip and told Li Lao a complete story.
Among them is the origin of the kitten demon Li Xian'er.
"I've heard Lao Huang talk about this little white cat.
This time you were able to complete the task, and she really did a lot of work. ”
"It's just that if you want to join our Qingling Sect, you can't just rely on contributions, and you have to be reasonable in terms of qualifications."
"If she didn't have the slightest qualifications to practice qi, it would be impossible for her to stay in the Qingling Sect."
Hearing Elder Li say this, Li Xian'er's originally expectant expression suddenly withered.
Although she successfully transformed into a human form with the help of a shape-transforming elixir, this did not mean that she necessarily had the qualifications to cultivate.
There are countless lives in this world, but there are very few who can finally step into the path of cultivation.
At this moment, after listening to Elder Li's words.
Li Xian'er's heart immediately swelled with a deep sense of disappointment.
"That'...... If you want to determine whether she has the qualifications to practice qi, you can only wait until the sect recruits disciples from the outside world? ”
"I don't need this, I just have a spirit stone here that can test the qi training qualifications.
Anyway, the old man is going to drink with you in the afternoon, so bring this spirit test stone with you and help the little white cat test his qualifications. ”
"Okay!"
Hearing that Li Lao was willing to help test Li Xian'er's qualifications in advance, Liu Qing was instantly overjoyed.
The sooner you know about Li Xian'er's situation, the sooner she can make plans for the future, so that she won't have to wait all the time.
After ending the call with Li Lao, Liu Qing returned to the kitchen and began to prepare the meal.
Just now, because of Li Xian'er's mistake, neither of them had enough to eat.
The only skewers I ate only delayed hunger.
Looking at the only remaining ingredients at home, Liu Qing shook his head.
Returning to the courtyard, Liu Qing glanced at Li Xian'er, who was a little worried, and said with a smile:
"There are not many ingredients in the house, so I will go to Zongmen Square to buy some."
"Elder Li will be coming over soon, so you should prepare first."
"Oh yes, you must remember to lock the courtyard door after I leave."
After speaking, Liu Qing left the house and performed the magic technique towards the Zongmen Square.
After a while, Liu Qing's storage ring was already filled with all kinds of fresh ingredients.
When he got home, he knocked on the door of his house.
After two or three minutes, Li Xian'er hurriedly ran over to open the door for Liu Qing.
As soon as the courtyard door opened, Liu Qing was about to make a question, but Li Xian'er in front of him made him a little dumbfounded.
"You...... What are you? ”
Liu Qing saw that Li Xian'er, who was already a little soft and weak.
At this moment, he actually put a huge oil lamp on his head.
Moreover, there was a flickering flame on the oil lamp.
The light emitted by the flames seemed so insignificant in the daylight.
For Li Xian'er's sudden strange behavior, Liu Qing felt very weird.
A cute little cat demon with a lit oil lamp on her head.
What a strange operation this is.
The most important thing is that the oil lamp is still dripping wax from the top to the bottom.
If it weren't for the lamp holder, these hot wax water would have fallen directly on Li Xian'er's body.
'Could it be that this Li Xian'er really has any special fetishes? ’
Just when Liu Qing was puzzled by this matter, Li Xian'er suddenly opened her mouth to explain to him.
"I have been in human society since I was incarnated.
It's not uncommon to hear people asking for a good omen for themselves before something particularly important happens. ”
"So ......"
"So, I want to give it a try and see if I can have a good omen for my next aptitude test."
After hearing Li Xian'er's explanation, Liu Qing couldn't help laughing.
Good omen, good omen, it's not for you to shine on your head with an oil lamp.
I didn't expect Li Xian'er, the little cat demon, to do such a funny thing in order to successfully pass the qualification test.
If you call her stupid, she can still figure out something.
You have to say that she is smart, she came up with this solution is really ......
"Come on, come on, take off this oil lamp, don't accidentally set your head on fire later."
Liu Qing shot a spiritual power towards the burning oil lamp above Li Xian'er's head.
The flames, which were still flickering and dancing, were immediately extinguished.
Carefully helping her remove the oil lamp, Liu Qing pointed to a tall and majestic mountain peak not far away and said:
"If you really want to have some metaphysical blessings, then bow to that mountain peak and worship Qingling Zhenren, the ancestor of the Qingling Sect."
"After all, this entire Qingling Sect was established by his old man back then."
"If you worship him, maybe it will be useful."
Hearing Liu Qing's suggestion, Li Xian'er nodded in agreement.
Then he began to bow earnestly to the mountain not far away.
At the same time, her mouth kept babbling.
"Qingling Zhenren bless Qingling Zhenren bless, bless me I must pass the qualification test and become a disciple of Qingling Sect."
"The best thing is to be able to become a personal disciple like Liu Gongzi."
Hearing what Li Xian'er muttered, Liu Qing was slightly stunned.
'To become a disciple of the personal lineage, Li Xian'er, the little cat demon's requirements are quite high. ’
You must know that there are countless disciples in the Qingling Sect, but the total number of personal disciples is only thirty or forty.
Almost every one of them is a top genius like no other.
Whether it is the qualification of cultivation or the comprehension of learning spiritual techniques, it is beyond the reach of ordinary disciples.
This little cat demon wants to become a disciple as soon as he comes up, but his ideals are really ambitious.
Just when Li Xian'er was still praying in the distance, a low cow cry suddenly came from outside the door.
"Moo~"
Liu Qing reacted immediately when he heard this voice.
This is Lao Huang's cry.
Lao Huang is here, which means that today's main master, Li Lao, has arrived.
Liu Qing hurriedly pulled up Li Xian'er, who was still chattering.
Then he walked a few steps forward and reopened the courtyard door.
The two of them looked towards the door together, and sure enough, they saw the horizon not far away.
An old ox is stepping on this cloud and flying in the sky.
"This ...... He can fly! ”
When she was down the mountain, Li Xian'er had seen Lao Huang before, and she also knew that Lao Huang's strength was very extraordinary.
But she never thought that this ordinary old scalper could still fly in the sky.
Flying in the sky, even Jiang Yu and Jiang Wanwei, monks who build a foundation realm, can't do it.
This old Huang is even stronger than them?!
Just when Li Xian'er was surprised, Lao Huang was already getting closer and closer to them.
At this time, the two saw that there was an old man in ragged clothes lying on Lao Huang's back.
That old man was none other than the master that Liu Qing wanted to find for Li Xian'er, Li Lao.
Coming to Liu Qing's door, Lao Huang landed steadily.
Liu Qing hurriedly stepped forward and helped Li Lao on the back of the cow.
As soon as he made a slight contact with Li Lao, Liu Qing smelled the strong smell of wine on his body.
It seems that this Li Lao drank a lot of wine before going out.
After exchanging a few words with Li Lao, Liu Qing immediately gave Li Xian'er a color.
Motioned for her to follow what she had been taught.
Liu Xian'er hesitated for a few seconds, then walked quickly in front of Li Lao.
Suddenly, he knelt down.
"Li Xian'er has seen Li senior."
Seeing Li Xian'er's move, Li Lao's cloudy eyes suddenly became clear.
"Your etiquette is a bit big, and the old man can't bear it."
"Boy Liu Qing, hurry up and pull her up."
When Liu Qing heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to pull Li Xian'er, but Li Xian'er knelt on the ground stubbornly.
Looking at Li Lao in front of him, he said respectfully:
"Your surname is also Li, and my surname is Li, I heard that you have no children, and it just so happens that my parents died early."
"If you don't dislike it, I want to provide for you."
After speaking, Li Xian'er kowtowed to Li Lao.
This made Li Lao feel a little uncomfortable in an instant.
He glanced at Liu Qing next to him tremblingly, and said in a heavy tone:
"You came up with the idea, right?"
Liu Qing smiled.
"Didn't I find you a daughter because you usually lack someone to take care of you?"
Li Lao glanced at Liu Qing vigorously, and then slowly helped Li Xian'er in front of him to his feet.
"You're a clever little girl.
Since you have given me such a great gift, then I naturally cannot refuse you anymore. ”
"In this way, you will follow me like Lao Huang in the future.
As for the title, you can still call me Li Lao as you do now. ”
"Thank you, Elder Li, for taking me in."
Hearing that Li Lao finally agreed to accept himself, Li Xian'er kowtowed to him again.
Then he slowly got up from the ground.
"Don't pestle at the door, hurry up and enter the house, Old Li, Senior Brother Huang, please!"
Liu Qing made a gesture of invitation to Li Lao and Lao Huang.
Li Lao's expression became a little kind at this time, he glared at Liu Qing slightly, and said angrily:
"You kid, you really like to make trouble for me."
Then he followed Lao Huang into the courtyard one after another.
After taking a seat, Li Xian'er hurriedly went to pour tea for Li Lao.
Liu Qing was chatting with Li Lao on the side.
After drinking a cup of tea, Li Lao groped for a cyan stone from his clothes and carefully placed it on the table in front of him.
"This is the Spirit Detection Stone, which can accurately test a person's cultivation qualifications."
"Let's test this little white cat's cultivation qualifications first."
When Liu Qing and Li Xian'er heard this, they nodded in agreement.
"Stretch out your right hand and place the palm of your right hand on the surface of the spirit stone."
According to Li Lao's instructions, Li Xian'er did so in turn.
Just when Li Xian'er's slender jade hand had just touched the spirit stone, a golden stone sound suddenly sounded on the surface of the spirit stone.
"Relax slowly and don't resist!"
After Li Lao's words fell, Li Xian'er began to slowly relax.
She slowly closed her eyes, and her whole person fell into a very strange state.
And what she didn't know was that on the spirit stone in front of her, a burst of red light had burst out at this time.
The red glow grew stronger and stronger, and soon the entire table was enveloped.
"It's ...... Innate Nine Spiritual Roots. ”
Seeing that the red light in front of him was so dazzling, Li Lao's also bloomed with a strange light.
Liu Qing was also surprised when he heard Li Lao say the six words of the Innate Nine Rank Spiritual Root.
The innate nine-rank spirit root, even if it is placed in the entire Qingling Sect.
Only those who are promoted to the rank of personal disciple as soon as they enter can achieve this qualification.
With the qualification of this innate nine-rank spiritual root, Li Xian'er was even a beginner when the Qingling Sect was recruiting disciples to the outside world.
It is also very possible to become a disciple directly.
looked at the red light bursting out in front of him, and Li Lao's unconcealed joy.
Liu Qing was also happy for Li Xian'er.
'This little kitten's cultivation qualifications can really reach the level of a personal disciple! ’
Thinking of this, Liu Qing couldn't help but think of what Li Xian'er had just said when she prayed to Qingling Zhenren.
This made him can't help but have a hint of suspicion.
'Could it be that it is really useful to pray to Qingling Zhenren, the founding patriarch of the Qingling Sect, on this Snow Cloud Mountain? ’
Just when Liu Qing was in a complicated mood, the red light on the spirit stone had slowly dissipated.
Liu Xian'er also slowly opened her eyes.
"Elder Li, Young Master Liu, do I have the qualifications to cultivate?"
Before Liu Qing could speak, Li Lao took the lead in shaking his head.
"A little, but not much."
"So ......"
As soon as she heard Li Lao say that her qualifications were not good, Li Xian'er instantly became nervous.
She looked at Li Lao in front of her with a pitiful expression, and said hesitantly:
"Elder Li, I ......"
She is very worried now, worried that she will be driven down the mountain by Li Lao and them because of her lack of qualifications.
Then he was discovered by the people in Snow Cloud City again and fell into the fireworks market.
That kind of life is like purgatory on earth for her.
"Your qualifications aren't too good, but they're barely qualified."
"I said at the beginning that you will follow me in the future, and I will teach you how to cultivate."
I heard that Li Lao did not abandon himself because of his qualifications.
Li Xian'er's eyes released happiness and joy.
"I ...... I'll go make you tea again. ”
She picked up the teapot on the table and got up to make tea for Li Lao again.
Liu Qing suddenly stopped her.
"There's freshly roasted tea in the innermost cabinet in the kitchen, and you take it from there when you make it."
"Okay."
Li Xian'er agreed, and immediately walked into the kitchen.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Qing looked at Li Lao, who was sitting in the rocking chair.
"Isn't this Li Xian'er's qualification an innate nine-grade spiritual root, Li Lao, you ......?"
Seeing Liu Qing's strange expression, Li Lao laughed.
"I know what's on your kid's mind."
"What you think is that since this little white cat has the qualification of the innate nine-rank spiritual root.
She could have chosen to join an elder and become a disciple of the elder, rather than continue to follow me, a bad old man. ”
"If she follows me, her good cultivation qualifications may be ruined, right?"
After being told by Senior Li's thoughts, Liu Qing hurriedly shook his head.
"No, no, I didn't mean that, I just ......"
Actually, Liu Qing had a little scheming in his heart at the beginning.
He doubted that the reason why Li Lao had just told Li Xian'er that her qualifications were not good.
It is very likely that he just wants to keep this cultivation genius by his side.
But then, Li Lao's actions made Liu Qing completely change his mind.
I saw that Li Lao slowly took out a metal token from his clothes and threw it on the table in front of Liu Qing.
Liu Qing looked at the token.
I saw eight big characters written on it.
Great Elder of the Qingling Sect
Li Mu
