Chapter 64: The Waterhole
"Han Daoyou, why are you so haggard, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Han Yu yawned while putting the spirit crumbs into the storage bag, and the red-faced man surnamed Rong asked jokingly.
"Alas, I didn't sleep all night yesterday. Han Yu rubbed his eyes and said helplessly.
Han Yu's deeds are also well known, but the red-faced man patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, lowered his voice and said: "Tai Daoyou knows that time is running out, and he is supporting a junior with outstanding talents, and he is really doing things too much, so you can be patient for the time being." ”
Han Yu was a little energetic when he heard this, and complained: "But you can't squeeze me like this, I don't have a shortage of him every month, I ran hard for him, and the benefits of one spirit stone were not paid, and two pieces were pasted upside down, which can't be said to be reasonable!"
Through the understanding and contact in these days, he knew that the red-faced man was not the one who chewed the root of his tongue, so Han Yu was careful to complain.
"Huh?" The red-faced man obviously didn't know about it, put down the work in his hand, leaned over and asked, "When is it?"
"Didn't I go to Heihefang two days ago, Senior Tai asked me to bring him some spiritual materials and gave me fifty spirit stones. As a result, I went to Fang City to ask, those spiritual materials cost fifty-two spirit stones, and I pasted two pieces myself, and Tai seniors didn't compensate at all!"
"This is really excessive!" the red-faced man frowned.
This makes people run errands, according to reason, you should pay some spirit stones as the price of running errands, even if you call a dog, you have to give some meat and bones, what is the reason for snatching bones from the dog's mouth?
After Han Yu complained, he said cautiously: "Rong Daoyou, we have a good relationship, and I just said a few words casually in front of you, you must not be big-mouthed." ”
Alas, it seems that in the future, I will also stay away from Lao Tai, and there must be at least a limit to how I can be a person and do things. The red-faced man muttered.
Han Yu filled a storage bag with spirit chips and asked tentatively, "Could it be that the juniors of Tai's predecessors are the talents of the Eight Spirits?"
The red-faced man who was laughed by this sentence only heard him say: "Han Daoyou, these eight spiritual aperture can only be regarded as superior, not Tianzi." This junior of Tai's predecessor heard that it is a Nine Spirit Aperture, a different spirit root, and the future is immeasurable!"
The man surnamed Tai showed a look of jealousy on his face, and when he saw Han Yu's blank eyes, he patiently explained a few words.
It turns out that there are not only the existence of the Five Elements Spirit Root in this world, but also some different spirit roots, such as the water spirit root that has become the ice spirit root, and the thunder spirit root, the wind spirit root, etc., the monks who have these spirit roots can have the strength of the same level, and they are also the objects of competition among the major sects.
The descendants of the old man surnamed Tai have a strange spirit root, and at the same time, they are also nine spirit knots, which means that there is basically no problem in building the foundation, and recruiting him is equivalent to booking a foundation building master in advance!
All the monks in the mine know about this, and the old man surnamed Tai likes to brag everywhere when he has nothing to do, saying how his descendants are and how they will be in the future, and they can glorify their ancestors.
Only then did Han Yu understand why the old man surnamed Tai was so greedy, it turned out that all this was for the younger generations, but this meal was too ugly!
The two chatted a few more words, and Han Yu went back and forth several times to clean up the spirit crumbs, and then lay on the bed tossing and turning, falling asleep in a daze.
As soon as he woke up, Han Yu sensed that Scarface was outside the door through the formation, so he untied the protective shield of the stone house and let him in.
"Lord Han, send my brother to tell the immortal master, and the immortal master urges him to do it as soon as possible. Scarface said honestly.
Han Yu sat on the edge of the bed, rubbed his temples, took a sip of water and said, "I know, I will find a way to solve this matter at this time." ”
Scarface went out respectfully, Han Yu sat in front of the bed and sighed, thought about it and decided to go into simple terms for the time being, so that Yin Qiuping could forget about it.
Reciting the incantation, he re-stirred the protective shield of the stone house, and then took out the medium-grade spirit stone that was pitted, sat on the bed and breathed and breathed.
Three months passed in a flash, and Han Yu estimated that he would be able to reach the peak of the fourth layer of qi refining in half a month, and then he could try to see if he could break through the fifth layer. With the medium-grade spirit stone and pill, the speed of this cultivation is not bad, but he knows that if he takes these spirit stones out and sells them, he will definitely be able to exchange them for some better treasures, and it would be too much waste.
But thinking that this spirit stone is also a white thing, it is not so distressing. In the past three months, Han Yu has also mastered the water shield, and the fireball technique has also been practiced well, and the two magic weapons have also been practiced, which is quite easy to use.
"Okay, that's all for today's explanation, disciples who have questions can come and ask, three questions for each person. An old man in the mine who built a foundation paid attention to some common problems during the gas refining period, and said some experiences, so he stopped teaching.
When the sermon was finished, Han Yuhuo hurriedly walked out, but was still stopped by Yin Qiuping.
In the past three months, Yin Qiuping's cultivation has also improved, and he has stepped into the fourth layer of the Qi refining period, and his master has given him a low-level magic weapon for self-defense, and he is very proud these days.
Han Yu saw that he couldn't hide, he smiled bitterly and was silent, then Yin Qiuping saw Han Yu's appearance, and asked in a good mood: "Do you think that you can just avoid me, but this scar on my face reminds me every day to seek revenge on you!"
Han Yu thought that you would take revenge and go to the female cultivator surnamed Xie, why did you come to me, I secretly despised him for his bullying and fear, but said in his mouth: "Yin Daoyou, we also have a little friendship, how about ending this matter?"
"Okay, if you want me to ignore it, sign a contract, and be my slave for life, you can stop this matter!"
"Yin Daoyou said with a smile!" Han Yu had a headache, this Yin Qiuping may be a dog, holding grudges.
"Han Daoyou doesn't want to commit himself to me, then you go to be your shrunken turtle, remember not to come out of the turtle shell, otherwise you won't know how to die!"
After Yin Qiuping finished speaking, he walked away, and Han Yu didn't care about the strange eyes cast by the people around him and went down the mountain, leaving only everyone to point and point.
"This Han Daoyou is also a little spineless!"
"What can be done, Yin Daoyou can have a foundation building monk backstage, Han Daoyou is just a casual cultivator!"
"This is strange, the new Qi Refining Layer in the mine has been accepted as a disciple by the Ten Thousand Law Sect, and Han Dao Friendship is also the third layer of Qi Refining!"
"You don't understand this, people are six spirit knots, Han Daoyou four spirit knots, or pseudo spirit roots, this qualification sect will not accept it. ”
"Oh, that's no wonder...."
“.......”
These days, the major sects have sent a lot of qi refining disciples, and this mine is also a little lively, and a group of people have scattered after a few words.
But a young man in white did not leave, and said to the fair girl beside him: "This Yin Daoyou is really useless, and Han Yu has been unharmed for several months. ”
"Brother, rest assured. The girl smiled and said, "My master has asked Ouyang City Lord to write a letter to ask Lord Han to return to Jian'an for reinstatement." When the elder brother goes to visit a few immortal masters, this matter will be done!"
"It's still a little sister who has a way!" the boy laughed.
The girl's eyes were staring at the distant figure, with a hint of confusion, anger, guilt and hatred in her eyes.
"Brother, you find an opportunity to inform Yin Daoyou, let him decide for himself whether he does it or not!" the girl said softly, veiled and turned to leave.
At this time, Han Yu was in the utility room and asked the old man surnamed You to buy some pills.
Waiting for the people in the hut to leave, Han Yu walked in unhurriedly, the old man surnamed You was scribbling the paper on the painting table, raised his head and glanced at it and said, "Han Daoyou, wait a while, the old man will come to entertain after he is busy with the things in hand." ”
This old man and Han Yu are also familiar with each other, otherwise they would not have said such words, Han Yu agreed, and walked to the cabinet behind the screen.
The ones sold here are all some beginner-grade pills, from the first level of Qi refining to the perfection of Qi refining, but the price is three points more expensive than that of Fang Market.
"Yuan Long Pill, Kutong Liquid, Golden Black Pill ....." Han Yu stood in front of the cabinet and looked at the name of the pill, and the old man also walked over after cleaning up the sundries in his hand, and said with a smile: "Han Daoyou, according to the amount of pills you take, it is very difficult to break through the fourth layer of qi refining. ”
The old man surnamed You also knew Han Yu's temper, so he didn't care when he spoke, Han Yu smiled bitterly: "This can't be helped, although the avenue is slim, but we must also strive for that glimmer of hope." ”
The old man surnamed You nodded approvingly: "Our immortal cultivators are originally against the sky, and they have also had the achievement of the Three Spiritual Tricks Jindan Avenue, Han Daoyou has this great ambition, and the old man admires it!"
Han Yu snorted, and noticed that the cabinet in the lower right corner said "Spirit Feeding Pill", so he asked curiously, "What kind of elixir is this?"
"Han Daoyou, this is not for people to eat. The old man surnamed You shook his head and said.
He didn't sell it either, and explained directly: "There is a foundation building predecessor in our mine who has a spirit beast, and this spirit pill is the favorite thing of that spirit beast, but a few days ago, that senior returned to the sect to perform a task, and there is still a bottle of spirit pill left." ”
"Why don't you send it back to the sect with the spirit stone?" Han Yu was still a little puzzled, but he was already thinking about it in his heart.
"Why are you sending this bottle back?" the old man surnamed You said with a smile, "This is also worth four spirit stones, if Han Daoyou wants to feed the rock pipits, one spirit stone will be sold to you!"
Han Yu thought about it, then pouted his mouth and said, "Okay, my rock pipit is also working hard, buy a bottle and go back to make up for him!"
As he spoke, he took out a spirit stone and handed it to him, the old man surnamed You took out the porcelain bottle and handed it to Han Yu and said with a smile: "Half a spirit pill and water to feed it, otherwise the medicinal properties are too strong to stand it, this is for first-order spirit beasts!"
Han Yu took out four spirit stones to buy two Xiao Yuan Dan as usual, said goodbye to the old man and left, and rode back to the mine on the rock pipit.
Of course, the bottle of spirit pill I bought will not be eaten by the rock pipit, after all, the rock pipit is also owned by the sect, and no matter how good it is, it can't be abducted, and whoever has the blood bead will recognize whom.
I practiced martial arts for a while as usual, and waited until I left quietly in the dead of night and walked into the maze of mines.
Three hours later, Han Yu saw the mine rat again, Han Yu first touched the rat's head, and then poured out a scarlet pill from the porcelain bottle.
As soon as the mine rat smelled it, he licked it directly from Han Yu's hand, swallowed this spirit feeding pill into his abdomen, and the aura in his body skyrocketed by three points, and then slowly returned to normal.
Han Yu directly threw a bottle of elixir on the ground, tried to make a comparison, and the mine rat screamed, holding the porcelain bottle and leading the way.
A few days ago, Han Yu tried to communicate with this mining rat and wanted him to dig a way out.
The passage dug by those miners still has no clue, and Han Yu is counting on these mining rats, although they are not as fast as humans can dig, but their perception of the environment is incomparable to humans.
The mine rat took Han Yu all the way through the cave, and after about an hour and a half, he came to a waterhole.
"Squeak!"
The mine rat threw the bottle on the stone and plunged into the water, Han Yu was a little puzzled, and the mine rat popped up again and squeaked.
Han Yu understood what he meant, took off his clothes, went down to the pool, took a deep breath, and plunged into the bottom!
The water in this pool was turquoise, and there were no fish and shrimp in the water, only the mine rat sliding underwater, and Han Yu followed behind with a sigh of relief.
After passing through a rock that was only the size of a person under the water, and swimming more than a dozen feet, the mine rat went upstream, and Han Yu hurriedly followed.
"Whew..."
Han Yu exhaled a breath of turbid air and looked around, this was also a nameless waterhole, with a radius of less than five zhang.
On the shore, Han Yu walked through the narrow stone path, and when he came to the end, he found himself halfway up the mountain.
Looking down the mountain, it was dark and swarthy, and by the bright moonlight, Han Yu knew that this was already outside the mountain!
