Lady Cultivator

After some time, Elder Liang came to Fenghe Courtyard and explained to them in detail the stages they might encounter in the trial, and provided some information, as well as a puppet-shaped magic weapon for each person, before he said goodbye and left. go.

After sending Elder Liang away, Mo Tiange and Nie Wushang played with a puppet alone and didn't speak for a long time.

They are quite well prepared. After a long while, Nie Wushang put down the puppets in his hands and said.

This puppet is only the size of a palm, but it is extremely delicately made. There is a faint aura on it, not demonic aura, nor spiritual aura. It is impossible to tell what it is for a moment. However, this is indeed a pretty good magic weapon. Elder Liang said that the secret place is in Xingluo Mountain, and there are some poisons around it that will produce miasma. With this puppet, you can avoid miasma and save spiritual energy.

That's right. Mo Tiange looked at the puppet in his hand and frowned slightly, Are we too sensitive?

Both of them were deep in thought. In fact, there is nothing particularly unreasonable about City Lord Mei's behavior. It's just that they are used to thinking from the bad side, so they feel that there is no reason for such a good thing to happen to them. In an ancient secret place, Nascent Soul monk invited me, and there was no danger to his life. In Tianji, how could such a good thing be freely known to outsiders?

Thinking of this, Mo Tiange felt that he was too suspicious. This was Yunzhong, not Tianji. How could he know that such a thing was not very common in Yunzhong? Besides, aren’t there no doubts about the dozen or so pill-forming monks? Observing the words and deeds of senior fellow apprentices Yong Ruyu and Qiu Chengruo, it seemed that there was nothing suspicious about City Lord Mei’s behavior...

After pondering for a while, Mo Tiange said: Let's figure it out. Didn't we make an agreement with Yong Ruyu and the others? Then we will act together with them. If something goes wrong, we can also refer to their behavior.

Wu Shang agreed. She couldn't think of a clue about this matter anyway, so let's just do it.

A few days later, some maids came to Fenghe Courtyard to invite them. This time, it was not the small hall where they met City Lord Mei, but the hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Only then did Mo Tiange and Nie Wushang meet the other monks.

At first glance, there were fifteen monks gathered here, ten of whom were demonic cultivators. In addition to the two of them, there were two righteous monks, Yong Ru Yu Qiu Cheng Ruo, and a swordsman in blue shirt who looked very lonely.

This man's cultivation was in the middle stage of pill formation. He was carrying a long sword with hidden brilliance. He had a very thin face and was sitting in the corner expressionlessly, without saying a word.

Seeing Mo Tiange looking at this person, Qiu Chengruo approached her and said softly: Fellow Daoist Qin, my senior brother and I have been in contact with this person. He seems to be very wary of outsiders and rejected our proposal.

Really? Mo Tiange raised an eyebrow. More than a dozen monks, most of whom are demonic cultivators,

This person actually doesn't want to go with Yong Ruyu and the others. Is it because he has a withdrawn personality or is he very confident in himself?

As if feeling someone looking at him, the man turned his head, glanced at them, nodded stiffly, then turned back and continued to stare straight ahead expressionlessly.

...

The four of them were speechless. Even Nie Wushang felt that this man looked too withdrawn. It seemed that he really didn't like dealing with others.

Forget it, Mo Tiange said, Maybe this fellow Taoist is really withdrawn and doesn't like to interact with others.

That's what Fellow Daoist Qin said, Yong Ruyu said, Since he doesn't want to be with us, there's nothing we can do about it.

The other three nodded and looked away.

Fellow Daoist Qin, Qiu Chengruo looked at Mo Tiange and said with a smile, It's been a few days since we last saw each other. I wonder if the elixir you want to refine is ready?

Mo Tiange smiled: It's done. If you have nothing to do, Fellow Daoist Qiu, you can help me evaluate it.

Qiu Chengruo waved his hands repeatedly: I am only familiar with the art of alchemy. I don't dare to evaluate it. I should experience it myself.

During the last chat, Qiu Chengruo accidentally learned that Mo Tiange also knew how to make alchemy. He was very happy and said that he also liked alchemy very much and wanted to ask her for more advice. Although Mo Tiange doesn't like to get close to others, she won't refuse when others treat her kindly, so she accepts it.

Yong Ruyu looked at the two of them with a smile and said, Junior sister, you and Fellow Daoist Qin are here. Fellow Daoist Tiancan and I will go to the side to talk, and we will come back when Lord Mei comes.

Okay, senior brother, go ahead. Qiu Chengruo smiled at him, took Mo Tiange's hand, and sat down next to him affectionately.

Yong Ruyu turned to Nie Wushang and said, Fellow Daoist Tiancan, they are talking about theirs, let's go over there and have a chat.

Nie Wushang saw Mo Tiange nodded slightly to her and said, Okay. She was a man now, so she couldn't stay confidently. Besides, there might be something else to talk to Yong Ruyu alone. reward.

Ever since he learned that Mo Tiange had a Taoist companion, Qiu Chengruo's attitude became much more natural. Not only was he no longer defensive as before, but he also became very close to her.

Mo Tiange felt that although Qiu Chengruo was not the same person as him, her current behavior was not annoying. If she had maintained this attitude, there would be no problem in getting along with each other. After all, there are tens of thousands of people in this world. How can we not interact with others just because they think differently from us? Even among friends, they seek common ground while reserving differences, tolerate differences between others and themselves, adjust their own pace, and find things to appreciate about each other.

Realizing that he was thinking about this question, Mo Tiange was startled. She found that she seemed to be thinking more about the word friend recently. Could it be that she was getting along better with Nie Wushang, so she felt that she could have a few more friends? This is not impossible. In the past hundred years, she has always been relatively withdrawn. Except for people like Luo Fengxue and Ye Jingwen who took the initiative towards her, she has never thought of making friends with others. In the past, she was too busy practicing and her cultivation was not up to par, so she didn't dare to make friends easily. Now that she is an alchemy monk, she doesn't have to be like this...

...Fellow Daoist Qin?

Hearing Qiu Chengruo's voice, Mo Tiange came back to his senses and said apologetically: Sorry, I had a question, so...

Qiu Chengruo showed a look of understanding, walked closer and asked, Fellow Daoist Qin...are you thinking about your husband?

Mo Tiange paused and did not deny it. Although she wasn't thinking about Qin Xi just now, she would inevitably think about him after a few days. In the Demonic Mountain, she and Qin Xi had made a blood oath to each other. Since their separation, she could feel that Qin Xi's condition was very stable, so she was not too worried. Guess he is still in seclusion now, right?

Seeing her expression, Qiu Chengruo covered his mouth with a smile and asked curiously: I see that Fellow Daoist Qin is very free and open in his behavior. He really doesn't seem like someone trapped in love affairs. But I don't know what kind of person my husband is to make you fall in love with him?

This question made Mo Tiange startled. What kind of person Qin Xi is, how can it be said in one word? The more I get along with him, the better I feel about him. Those good things are difficult to tell to outsiders.

He... is a very considerate person. Although he doesn't like to talk, he takes people into his heart. When you are with him, you feel like you are cherished and valued...

Seeing Mo Tiange's smiling expression, Qiu Chengruo seemed to be thinking: It seems that you love your husband very much.

Mo Tiange looked at her, puzzled: Fellow Daoist Qiu, how can you tell?

Qiu Chengruo said: Your expression can't deceive anyone. Thinking of him makes you feel very happy and happy.

Thinking about his mood just now, Mo Tiange couldn't help but smile. Indeed, even just thinking about it, she felt very happy.

Moreover, when it comes to him, you don't talk about his cultivation and identity first, but his personality first... The two of you should have fallen in love and become a Taoist couple, right? It's not because of the order of your elders or being from the same sect. In order to practice or something... At this point, Qiu Chengruo's eyes showed a trace of depression.

This puzzled Mo Tiange: Fellow Daoist Qiu, what you said... could it be...

Qiu Chengruo forced a smile, and after a while, he seemed unwilling to give in and said, My senior brother and I became Taoist couples because of a word from my master.

Mo Tiange raised his eyebrows: Look at your appearance...

Qiu Chengruo sighed softly and said, Of course, since we are Taoist couples, we naturally have feelings for each other. She looked at Mo Tiange with complicated eyes, Actually, I really envy you for being like this. You are not brothers and sisters. Benefits included...

Mo Tiange was silent for a while, looking at Qiu Chengruo's sad look, and finally said, My husband... is also my senior brother.

Qiu Chengruo was stunned and surprised: Then you...

Now that we have become Taoist couples, what does it matter if we are brothers and sisters? She smiled, Same disciples naturally have more opportunities to get along with each other than others and have more opportunities to develop feelings. Isn't this normal?

...Cheng Ruo responded softly, the depressed look on his eyebrows slightly reduced, and looked at Mo Tiange with a smile. Perhaps because of her words just now, she became closer to Mo Tiange. Unlike just now, although she was affectionate, she was still close to Mo Tiange. Still with some politeness.

By the way, where is the elixir that fellow Taoist mentioned? I almost forgot about the business.

Mo Tiange smiled slightly, took out a jade bottle from the Qiankun Bag, and said, The ingredients of this elixir are too complicated. I failed several times to make this bottle.

Qiu Chengruo took it, pulled out the cork, and poured out a pill. This elixir is green in color and has a refreshing fragrance. The first smell makes people feel energetic.

Qiu Chengruo first observed the quality of the elixir, then smelled the aroma, and finally dipped some powder into it and tasted it. Finally, he showed a look of surprise: Fellow Daoist Qin, I didn't expect that your alchemy skills are so outstanding. This elixir has the right heat and almost no impurities. , it’s really the best.”

Mo Tiange smiled humbly and said, I'm just interested in alchemy. When it comes to alchemy, my senior brother is better.

Really? Qiu Chengruo was surprised, Your alchemy skills are already comparable to the most outstanding alchemist in our Danxia Sect.

Fellow Daoist Qiu is so complimentary.

Qiu Chengruo tasted the powder of the elixir again, poured the elixir back reluctantly, and asked, Fellow Daoist Qin, this elixir of yours should be for detoxification, right? But I don't know what it's called?

This is called Qingfeng Yulu Pill. Mo Tiange said, It is used for detoxification. It can also be taken in advance to prevent fog and the like.

Really? Qiu Chengruo looked at the jade bottle in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, Fellow Daoist Qin, I would like to exchange your Qingfeng Jade Dew Pills with other things or spiritual stones. What do you think?

Mo Tiange muttered: This...

Qiu Chengruo hurriedly added: Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Qin, I will never take advantage of you, you can just ask for the price.

That's not what I meant. Mo Tiange said, To be honest, the success rate of this elixir is not high, and the raw materials are very complicated. I can only refine this bottle.

... Qiu Chengruo looked at the jade bottle in his hand, sighed at the end, and handed it back to her, In that case, I don't want to force it on others. However, if Fellow Daoist Qin refines it again, please think about it.

This is natural. Mo Tiange nodded with a smile.

The two discussed alchemy for a while. Although Qiu Chengruo's alchemy was not as good as hers, it was not weak either. Some of the alchemy techniques were unique to Yunzhong, which benefited Mo Tiange a lot.

Just as he was talking happily, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura from far to near. Suddenly, all the monks in the room became quiet. With such momentum, it should be the arrival of Mei City Lord. ) Book friends, please pay attention!
