Chapter 101: Motivation
galloping all the way, in front of the covered bridge, Ning Chen saw that Bai Xinyao was standing beside the covered bridge, looking hopefully in the direction where Ning Chen came, when he saw Ning Chen appear, Bai Xinyao's face couldn't help but reveal a warm smile, which was very different from Bai Xinyao's cold temperament in the past.
Such a smile also made Ning Chen's heartstrings tremble, and a wonderful sense of happiness filled Ning Chen's whole body.
"Senior sister, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Ning Chen trotted all the way to Bai Xinyao's side and smiled.
"It's okay, I've just arrived. Bai Xinyao responded with a smile, and then entered the covered bridge with Ning Chen.
This covered bridge, Ning Chen is extremely familiar, as if it contains all the memories of Ning Chen when he was a little disciple of the outer sect, but standing here today, there is a completely different feeling, everything is very different from before.
Slowly looking at the small Qianbailing diagram on the side of the covered bridge, the mottled feeling has become more and more serious, compared with last year, there are a few more places to fall off, and the picture scroll is seriously faded and becomes dull.
"How are we going to repair this painting, will it be difficult?" Bai Xinyao turned her head and asked Ning Chen, obviously ignorant of anything.
Ning Chen pinched his chin and pondered for a moment before shaking his head: "Okay, there are two main problems, that is, to make up for the places that have fallen off, and then to restore the original color of the little thousand hundred spirit diagrams." ”
"Is it difficult?" Bai Xinyao asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's a bit of a hassle, but it's not difficult. Ning Chen responded, and then took out a small table from the storage bag and took out the items needed one by one.
Afterwards, Ning Chen and Bai Xinyao sat together and began to get busy, Bai Xinyao was responsible for grinding Ning Chen's ink, and Ning Chen began to sketch on a piece of rice paper.
Turning his head from time to time, when Ning Chen saw Bai Xinyao's focused appearance, there was always an inexplicable reverie in his heart, the scholar was reading hard, and the lady was grinding ink beside him.
Ning Chen was originally a scholar, and this kind of different feelings made Ning Chen linger for a long time.
Since he was sensible, his mother died, his father was seriously injured, and it was difficult to see him, Ning Chen felt loneliness and helplessness all the time, but at this moment, it was different, Ning Chen was no longer lonely, and there was more comfort in his heart.
Two hours passed, the sun sinking in the west gradually sank under the mountain peaks, the golden earth was already slightly dark, and the early autumn breeze made people feel very cool.
With the efforts of Ning Chen and Bai Xinyao, looking at the small Qianbailing diagram on the covered bridge, it has been repaired for a small time, the mottling has been filled, and the picture has been refilled, it looks seamless, and the faded part has become bright again.
It's just that when Ning Chen turned his head slightly and looked at Bai Xinyao, he saw that Bai Xinyao had turned into a flower-faced cat, and the ink and paint were on the left and right on his face, and even the jet-black hair and snow-white gauze clothes could be seen everywhere.
couldn't help it, Ning Chen couldn't control it a little, and finally couldn't help laughing.
"Ning Chen, what are you laughing at?" Bai Xinyao, who was unaware, asked curiously.
"Senior sister, you are so beautiful. Ning Chen was still smiling.
Bai Xinyao naturally noticed the strangeness on Ning Chen's face, and hurriedly took out a bronze mirror from the storage ring and took a photo, but her handsome face moved slightly, and then squinted at Ning Chen: "Okay, Ning Chen, you dare to laugh at Senior Sister." ”
As she spoke, Bai Xinyao stretched out her jade hand and grabbed it towards Ning Chen.
Ning Chen didn't have good knowledge and ran away.
All of a sudden, Ning Chen and Bai Xinyao began to chase and frolic around the covered bridge, and bursts of laughter continued to echo in the Fu Lang Pavilion.
At this moment, it was impossible to tell what kind of monks the two of them were, as if they were a pair of big children.
It wasn't until the two of them came to the top of Fu Lang Pavilion that they stopped frolicking and looked side by side at the last afterglow of the sunset in the distance.
"Senior sister, it is estimated that in a few days, the little Qianbailing diagram on the covered bridge will be repaired, if you enter the Ancient Void Cave and then build the foundation, then what dreams do you have?" Ning Chen turned his head slightly and asked Bai Xinyao softly.
Bai Xinyao shook her head slightly: "For monks, being able to build a foundation is a kind of creation, especially as a fox demon, it is not easy to transform into a person, and it is not easy to cultivate. ”
When Bai Xinyao said this, a faint sadness had flashed on her face, she was able to survive thousands of years, such a feeling, Ning Chen couldn't understand it now.
"Of course, if I have the chance, I would love to stand on the top of Mai Tuo Mountain and have a look. Bai Xinyao sighed.
Ning Chen, who is full of poetry and books, naturally knows Maituo Mountain, which is very far away from Lingqiu Country, and it is also a holy place of immortal paths, but there are very few monks who can reach the top of the mountain, and if they climb to the top of the mountain with their own strength, they will also obtain supreme glory.
Almost every aspiring monk has such a dream.
"One day, if Senior Sister wants to go, Senior Brother is willing to do his best to help, and when the time comes, how about the two of us standing on the top of Maituo Mountain together?" Ning Chen stood beside Bai Xinyao and said with a smile.
"Come on, if you want to set foot on Maituo Mountain, at least you have to get married, and for now, let's consider building a foundation that is more reliable. Bai Xinyao glanced at Ning Chendao, and then walked down the mountain with Ning Chen, along the quiet path, talking and laughing along the way.
After all, it was only half a step away from the Ancient Void Cave, and Bai Xinyao was naturally in a good mood.
Returning to the Huarendong Mansion, Ning Chen's face was still full of ruddy, and the whole person's spirit was much better than before, and he was simply radiant.
However, Ning Chen did not neglect the business because of this, since the Arrow Talisman had personally been recognized by the head of the sect, Kui Qiuzi, the disciples of the entire Demon Spirit Sect heard the news.
Hundreds of arrows were sold out in an afternoon.
While taking out the phaseless jade seal again and starting to use the rune ink on hand to make the arrow talisman, Ning Chen's mind was constantly thinking about how to make a high-quality red flame talisman or even a purple flame talisman.
For the Red Flame Talisman, with Ning Chen's current ability, there is no difficulty in making it, the key is the quality, as for the Purple Flame Talisman, it is not easy for Ning Chen's current cultivation and painting attainments, but this does not mean that it is completely impossible.
And if Ning Chen can make a purple flame talisman, this kind of Dan fire talisman with the highest condensation period, then Ning Chen's status in the Demon Spirit Sect will definitely be further improved, especially in front of the Holy Dan Visit, and even have the right to speak, after all, grandma will definitely not easily make talismans for others, so, in the Demon Spirit Sect, Ning Chen is the only one who can make a large number of purple flame talismans.
Not even to mention that in the Demon Spirit Sect, even in the Lingqiu country, the talisman makers who can make the Purple Flame Fire Talisman are also highly valued, after all, if you want to refine the top-level elixir of the Qi Condensation Period, you are absolutely inseparable from the Purple Flame Fire Talisman.
This was also the driving force behind Ning Chen's determination to make the Purple Flame Talisman.
