Chapter 63 Huangquan Road is wide
"I am an outer disciple of the 'Thousand Grass Hall' of the Southern Star Kingdom Cultivation True Sect, because of my average qualifications, I have not been able to achieve the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Root for a long time, so I returned to the world to run a medicinal herb shop under the name of 'Thousand Grass Hall', which is only a very small branch of the Thousand Grass Hall.
I'm here to collect a batch of spiritual grass that the sect has named, and which is a specialty here. Now that the spirit grass has been almost collected, it needs to be transported to the deacon elders of the sect in the Xiuzhen City 'Southern Jade City', which is thousands of miles away.
A few years ago, I had already collected a batch and sent a junior disciple in the middle stage of the spirit root to transport it, but recently, a group of low-level casual cultivators appeared out of nowhere on the road, specifically targeting the robbers of my 'Thousand Grass Hall', and robbed that batch of spirit grass halfway, so this time I personally transported it back.
I was worried that a person's strength was a little lacking and he couldn't be foolproof, but it happened that Daoist friends came here and asked for a map to Xiuzhen City, which just solved the problem in my heart.
To tell you the truth, this mission is related to whether or not Inuko can become an inner disciple of the sect, so I have to be careful. Luo Hancheng explained the whole thing, and then looked at Qin Deng, waiting for his reply.
Qin Deng was silent, weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he understood that things were not so simple, the origin of those robbers was unknown, and their strength was definitely not low. Moreover, this person said that he was transporting a batch of spiritual grasses that were special to this place, and there was something worth scrutinizing.
The stakes are not low.
"I don't know if you're interested in alchemy?" Luo Hancheng was silent when he saw Qin Deng, and he was a little anxious in his heart.
He already knew that there were also late-stage spiritual root monks among those robbers, and he had been running the sect's medicinal herb shop all these years, and he had become accustomed to the worldly wealth and leisure, and he had long lost the perseverance to cultivate the truth at the beginning, and now he just wanted to send his son into the sect steadily to become an inner disciple, and then be a leisurely rich man himself.
Therefore, cultivation has long been put aside, and there is no inch of progress in cultivation, and the combat power is not as good as before. And this time, the sect was understaffed, and Elder Hu had to sit in the city again, and the sect only arranged for him to act alone, so he was really a little lacking in confidence, otherwise he would not be so eager for Qin Deng to join.
The delivery of spirit grass a few years ago was just a test, but as a result, someone was ambushed, and a mid-stage spiritual root junior disciple was damaged.
"Why did Luo Daoyou ask this?" Qin Deng asked.
"After this is done, you can get three opportunities to ask the elders of this sect for Danjutsu, and each time is an hour. This Elder Hu Ye, who was sitting in the Thousand Grass Hall in the city, was a spirit pill master who could refine the foundation building stage elixir. If you help me, I can give this opportunity to you. Rohan replied quickly.
In his heart, he was a little uncertain about going on the road alone this time, and besides, he now had a big family and a son who was about to enter the Thousand Grass Hall to become an inner disciple, so he really didn't want to risk his life. I just want to pull Qin Deng by my side and increase my strength to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
After finishing speaking, Luo Hancheng thought in his heart: "Anyway, it is difficult for me to cultivate an inch, and I have no interest in alchemy, so it doesn't matter if I give this opportunity to this person, as long as I complete the task and accumulate enough credit, I can guarantee that the son of the second-grade spiritual root will become an inner disciple of the Thousand Grass Hall." ”
Hearing this, Qin Deng's heart moved: "The 'Jade Spirit Pill' is secondary, and it is extremely rare to be able to ask a Spirit Pill Master for advice three times." ”
He didn't know what the situation was on the side of the Southern Star Kingdom, in the Great Moon Country, as long as the basic jade slip of alchemy was purchased at a high price, it was easy, but it was difficult to get started.
In terms of the difficulty of getting started with alchemy, there is a big difference between someone pointing and no one. Especially for people like Qin Deng, who are completely laymen in alchemy, being able to ask the elixir master for advice three times is an opportunity that is hard to come by.
Under normal circumstances, the elixir master attaches great importance to his own alchemy and will not teach others lightly at all.
Qin Deng didn't expect that the elixir master to teach him the secret method of alchemy, he only needed to consult the elixir master through guò, and he could get started with alchemy.
"At this point I agreed, but it would take me a day to prepare. After a little contemplation, Qin Deng agreed to the matter.
"This is no problem at all, there are still two days to go, and Daoist friends can stay with me temporarily. Luo Hancheng saw that Qin Deng promised this, and a smile appeared on his face.
"No, I'll stay in town, and I'll be here early in the morning. Qin Deng didn't say much, and simply turned around and left after speaking.
"Khan Cheng, where do you think this person came from? As soon as Qin Deng left, behind a screen in the inner hall, a square-faced, one-eyed middle-aged man who was more than ten years younger than Luo Hancheng walked out.
As soon as Luo Hancheng saw the one-eyed middle-aged man coming out, he hurriedly walked up the mountain to greet him: "Uncle Liu, this person is obviously disguised, but looking at his condition, there is no doubt that he has only recently come out of the mountain." The smell of grass and trees in the deep mountains on his body can't hide from my nose. ”
"Haha, Khan Cheng, your nose is indeed a big help to this sect, this time this 'Qi Huangshi' is really thanks to your nose. But don't call me uncle, let's still be commensurate with brothers, and the two of us also started together back then. The one-eyed middle-aged man said with a smile on his face.
"Etiquette is not a cost, Uncle Shi, you are already a foundation building monk, I have still been a disciple of the Spirit Root Stage for decades, it is right to call you Uncle Shi, this is the rule of the cultivation world since ancient times. Luo Hancheng still insisted.
"Han Cheng, this time it is indeed extremely risky to ask you to carry a fake Qi Huangshi in the open to attract the people of the 'Ten Thousand Poison Valley', but if you want to deal with a person who has cultivated in the late stage of the spiritual root, they will not send a master of the foundation building period. If you take that kid with you, you still have a good chance of escaping.
It's just that you gave him the opportunity to ask Elder Hu Ye three times, don't you think it's a pity? Hu Ye is the highest Dan skill among the sect's spirit pill masters. The one-eyed middle-aged man looked at Luo Hancheng and sighed slightly.
"Uncle Shi, I am over fifty years old this year, and I am still lingering in the late stage of the spiritual root, and I don't have much hope in my life for cultivating the spiritual foundation. I just hope to live a few more years, watching my son enter the sect and become an inner disciple, my old face is still there, and I can take care of him for a few more years.
As for the opportunity to ask Elder Hu Ye for Danjutsu, it wouldn't be of much use for me to come. It is better to attract a master to accompany him and have a little more hope of survival. Luo Hancheng's tone was a little gloomy and helpless.
"Don't worry, Khan Cheng, I will take good care of your son when he enters the sect, and I won't let him be bullied, I believe that with your merits this time, it is very promising for him to become an inner disciple. After listening to Luo Hancheng's words, the one-eyed middle-aged man was silent for a while, and only spoke after a while.
"I thank Uncle Shi here, but Uncle Shi, you also have to be careful, although I have attracted people from the Ten Thousand Poison Valley in the Ming place this time, it is difficult to ensure that the news leaks out, and they sent a foundation building master to intercept and kill you. Luo Hancheng didn't seem to want to continue the dull topic just now.
"Hmph! If it was in the past, as long as the people of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley dared to come, I, Liu Zhongyuan, would really kill a few of them, in order to relieve the hatred of poisoning and blinding one of my eyes back then. The one-eyed middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said.
After the one-eyed Liu Zhongyuan finished speaking, his tone changed, and he said solemnly: "This time, when it comes to 'Qi Huangshi', this matter is too important, so I'll bear with it first." I've prepared a variety of measures to make sure nothing goes wrong. ”
......
Qin Deng left Qiancaotang and directly found an inn not far from Qiancaotang to stay, he wanted to take this time to clean up some of the things he could use in the Sumeru ring and storage bag. Be more prepared, and have more protection.
Half a day later, Qin Deng put all the things he might need into a storage bag and began to meditate and cultivate.
Early in the morning of the second day, Qin Deng came to Qiancaotang, and at this time, Luo Hancheng was also ready, and the two went on the road together.
Neither of them had built a foundation, nor could they use magic weapons to fly, nor could they use spiritual power to gallop all the way, so Luo Hancheng prepared two sturdy horses that traveled thousands of miles a day.
Five days later, the two had traveled nearly 5,000 miles, stopping by a river more than ten zhang wide to rest for a while, and after letting the horses drink, Luo Hancheng took out the horse feed from the storage bag and fed the horse.
"Luo Daoyou, what kind of cultivation city is this Southern Jade City, how big is this city, and how many monks are there. Qin Deng looked at Luo Hancheng, who was also sitting down to rest after being busy, and asked.
"This Southern Jade City is one of the three major cultivation cities in the Southern Star Kingdom, and it is famous for its wide variety of pills and spiritual herbs. Many sects have bases in Nanyu City, and the number of monks is generally maintained at about 100,000, and in addition to monks, there are millions of mortals doing various things in the city. Luo Hancheng said roughly.
Then he continued: "The specific situation, Qin Daoyou will naturally know after he arrives in Nanyu City. Now let's do our best to get things delivered as soon as possible, so that we can rest assured as soon as possible. When you arrive in the city, you must have a good time with Qin Daoyou, and introduce the situation of this southern jade city to Daoyou in detail. ”
"I don't think you need to hurry, Huangquan Road is very spacious!" Qin Deng was about to get on his horse when suddenly a piercing voice came.
At some point, a wooden boat appeared on the surface of the river and flew towards the two of them at a very fast speed. Before he finished speaking, the boat had already reached the shore, and the four people jumped out of the boat and quickly surrounded Qin Deng and Luo Hancheng.
"Ten Thousand Poison Valley! it's really you!" Luo Hancheng was not surprised, as if he had expected the other party to come.
"Hehe, Luo Hancheng, do you think that it will be foolproof if you personally escort that thing and hire another helper? A middle-aged man in his forties, who was as fine as a skeleton, stepped forward and said arrogantly to Luo Hancheng.
