lead fades away

After Fairy Wei Hua brought Han Shuo to her cave, she waved away the accompanying monks. After the low-ranking disciples in the cave served the tea, she asked straight to the point, "Han Zhenjun is visiting Danmen. I don't know what's the matter?"

"I don't want to hide the truth, I came from the Xuantian Immortal Realm." Facing Wei Ming's birth mother, Han Shuo did not hide anything, and described in detail what happened in the Xuantian Immortal Realm, and then asked about Wei Ming's whereabouts. "Before I came, I heard that Wei Xianjun had returned to Danmen. I wonder if this is true?"

"The dog has indeed returned to the Pill Gate." Fairy Wei Hua nodded, and then said, "But when he came back, he announced that he would go to the gate of life and death, which shocked me at the time. Now, after hearing what you said, I feel a little bit embarrassed. Understood."

——The effect of requiem wood is too obvious, right?

Qing Shi couldn't help being startled, but immediately secretly denied the idea.

——No, Wei Ming's cultivation base should have reached the critical point long ago, whether it is the Requiem Wood or worry-free things, they are all opportunities to urge him to break through!

——The title of No.1 under Huashen is really not for nothing!

"Life and death?" Han Shuo was also taken aback when he heard it, and his first reaction was unbelievable, but then he felt that Fairy Wei Hua didn't need to use this as an excuse to keep him from seeing Wei Ming, so he echoed, "Xianjun Wei Xu is After being enlightened, I have a breakthrough in my state of mind.”

"I hope so." Fairy Wei Hua sighed softly, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

"Since Wei Xianjun has returned safely, I won't bother you any more." Han Shuo bowed his hands and said goodbye.

"It's rare for Han Zhenjun to come to our gate, why don't you stay here for a few more days?" Fairy Wei Hua asked to stay.

"Thank you Fairy for your kindness, but Mr. Han still has secular affairs, it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time, so please forgive me." Han Shuo declined.

"If that's the case, then I won't force Zhenjun to stay." Fairy Wei Hua was only polite.She was delighted that Han Shuo had a friendship with Wei Ming, but both of them were not rootless casual cultivators, and their words and deeds might involve the interests of their respective sects.

And although Han Shuo was indeed a little worried about Wei Ming's situation, he and Wei Ming were just a personal friend, and the reason for this personal relationship was inconvenient to disclose, so his concern and concern could only be limited to the end.His biological mother, Fairy Wei Hua, said that Wei Ming was fine, so why did he, an outsider pretending to be a friend, question him so much?

Han Shuo immediately stopped staying for a long time, got up and led Qing Shi and Wang Shuo away from Danmen.

But Han Shuo promised Qingshi to purchase herbs here, so although the two of them left Danmen, they did not leave Yunxia Mountain. After getting out of shape, he returned to Yunxiafang City in the southwest of Yunxia Mountain Range.

Yunxiafang City is the only herbal medicine franchise market clearly bearing the logo of Danmen, and it is also the largest herbal medicine sales place in the Upper Realm.Even if the shops are not directly under the control of Danmen, they are all approved by Danmen, and the quality of the herbs sold is definitely what you pay for.Even the herbal medicines on the street stalls have to be tested and priced by people from Danmen before they can be put up for sale.

Because they were planning to stay here for a few days, Han Shuo and Qing Shi were not in a hurry to go to the shop to buy goods. Instead, they went to the town next to Fangshi to find an inn, booked a room as a place to stay, and then hugged each other. Looking at Wangshuo, I walked slowly all the way to Fangshi for a stroll.

In fact, Qingshi no longer has the intention to use low-level materials to make profits in Xianchumen. After all, his relationship with Han Shuo is getting closer and closer. When doing many things, he must not only consider his own interests, but also Han Shuo's face. .Hoarding and raising prices, buying low and selling high is hard to say, but at a superficial level, it is a matter of valuing profit over sentimentality, and at a serious level, it is a disregard for the sect, and it is very easy to leave people with excuses.

But it’s rare to come out once, and Qingshi really wants to see the "world", and see what the top-level spiritual herbs and elixir in the upper world look like now, so it's fun to stroll around, and it doesn't matter if you see something strange Whether it is useful or not, he bought it directly. Anyway, he is not the one who pays the bill, and he is happy to spend as much as he wants.

While walking around, a signboard in front of him suddenly caught Qingshi's attention, and he couldn't help saying, "Why is there a bookstore in Caoyaofang City?"

Han Shuo also looked up, and said casually, "It should be a place that sells pills."

——Selling prescriptions?

Qing Shi was taken aback for a moment, and soon realized again.Alchemists are not unique to the Pill Sect, and no matter how strong the Pill Sect is, they cannot monopolize alchemists and alchemy at the risk of annoying the entire upper realm. If they want to maintain their advantage, they can only work hard on the raw materials of the elixir.Although Danmen is famous for alchemy, it is the art of immortal planting that really supports the sect. After all, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Whether it is alchemy or pharmaceuticals, there are enough herbs as a prerequisite.The reason why Danmen blatantly opened a bookstore selling Danfang in this square city is because no matter how good the Danfang is, it needs herbs to make it. From this point of view, the more people who practice alchemy, the more medicinal herbs The greater the demand, the more herbs Danmen sells, and the more profitable it will be.

"Go in and have a look?" Qingshi immediately looked at Han Shuo with great interest.

Of course Han Shuo would not refuse, and led Qingshi to the bookstore.

The store doesn't only sell prescriptions, all the books and books related to spiritual grass and spiritual plants are covered, but they are more biased towards use and identification, and there are very few cultivation ones.However, Qing Shi is not uncommon for planting tablets. He has recently been obsessed with wine making, so he rummaged through the tablets related to wine making.

However, the books in this store are not free to read. You need to pay a considerable amount of spiritual stones just to read the introduction, and you need to pay additional spiritual stones according to the value of the book slips for copying and copying.Qingshi rummaged through a pile of slips for less than half an hour, and spent nearly a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

But here the concept of what you get for what you pay for is really implemented very thoroughly, Qing Shi and Han Shuo are willing to spend money, the hospitality of the store is very good.A few low-grade spirit stones were thrown out as rewards, and Han Shuo, who came in with Qingshi, was invited to a private seat in the corner of the store, and the tea served was also very good.

After tossing for more than an hour, Qingshi finally went through all the classics and books related to alcohol in the store, selected the ones he was satisfied with, and handed them over to the store clerk for copying, while he walked up to Han Shuo, happily He gave Wang Shuo a spiritual fruit, and said to Han Shuo, "I've chosen."

"Then where are you going?" Han Shuo asked casually.

"Go back to the inn and rest. I have to go back and sort out the books I bought. I'll come back tomorrow to find out what's missing." Qing Shi said.

"Follow me somewhere first before going back," Han Shuo said.

"Okay." Qing Shi was in the right mood, so naturally he would not have any objections, and nodded obediently in agreement.

When the store clerk delivered the copied slips, Qing Shi took the slips, Han Shuo paid the Lingshi, and the two of them left the bookstore and walked towards the largest elixir shop in the middle of the city.Han Shuo came here to buy elixir, but not for his own use, but for the foundation-building elixir for the disciples who entered the Elder Hall in March.

Although Xiantrumen also had corresponding elixir supplies, Han Shuo was not satisfied with the quality of those elixirs, and he didn't want to take advantage of the sect.However, from the light of his point of view, Han Shuo was simply addicted to giving out red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, but he didn't give out enough red envelopes after the New Year, so he took advantage of the opening of the Elder Hall to continue his addiction to the elders.But no matter how much Han Shuo squandered the spirit stones, it was Han Shuo's own business. If Han Shuo wanted to buy pills, he would at most help taste them. Anyway, what he spent was not his spirit stones.

After purchasing the elixir, Han Shuo took Qingshi back to the town outside Fangshi, but when he was about to reach the inn, Qingshi noticed a few acquaintances standing at the door of the inn.

Qingshi stopped immediately, and stretched out his hand to pull Han Shuo to a side alley, "Elder Han, a member of the Second Peak."

Han Shuo froze for a moment, followed Qingshi's line of sight to look over, but he didn't recognize any of them.

"It's definitely from the second peak! The shortest one in the middle is called Jingli, he is my deadly enemy! The two next to him are also disciples of the second peak." Qingshi explained.

"Your rival?" Han Shuo raised his eyebrows, and turned his head to look at Qingshi with great interest.

"Meng Sen Daojun's little disciple was so spoiled by the people from the second peak that his brains are rotten." Qing Shi curled his lips and said, "Meng Sen Daojun only caressed me a few times, and he was so sore that he was so sore that he was dying. Come to find trouble, and if you have something to do, hit me up."

"Is Meng Sen still thinking about Feng Xi?" Han Shuo shook his head helplessly.

Hearing what Han Shuo said, Qingshi immediately threw the well aside, and asked with bright eyes, "What does Daoist Meng Sen really have with my aunt?"

"He fell in love with Fengxi before he formed the alchemy, but Fengxi only had the way in his heart. Meng Sen's hard work failed, and the relationship between the two became more and more rigid." Han Shuo replied, "I remember one time, Fengxi Being forced by Meng Sen, he took me out as a shield, saying that I intended to accept her as a concubine. However, she hadn't formed a pill at that time, so I was called to scold me by my master after passing it around. Said that I ignored the rules of the sect and abused the female cultivators of the inner sect."

——Is this how the rumor of being a concubine came about?This is not the same as what my aunt said!

Qing Shi couldn't help but have black lines all over his head, but after thinking about it, he felt that Han Shuo's statement was more credible.After all, as far as he observed, Han Shuo really only loved masculinity and was not close to women. At that time, no matter how young, beautiful and carefree Feng Xi was, as long as there were those two lumps of soft meat on his chest, Han Shuo would be mad at her. Not out of charming thoughts.

"However, why are the people from the second peak coming to Danmen?" Qing Shi quickly turned his mind back to them in the well.

"Buy spiritual seeds, after all, it's almost time for spring plowing," Han Shuo said.

"The Spirit Seed Xiannongtang for spring farming should have been prepared last year, why go out and buy it now." Qing Shi doubted.

"Maybe I'm here to buy new species, or go out to practice, just passing by." Han Shuo didn't think so.

Qing Shi actually didn't think that these people from the second peak came here to betray Xiantrumen.After all, people with bad intentions would not act so blatantly, let alone so many people act blatantly together.It's just that he's used to dealing with Jingli, and he always has to say something derogatory to feel comfortable.

While the two were talking, another Golden Core cultivator walked out of the inn, but it was Wan Shixing, the master of the Second Peak Xiannong Hall.

"The people from the Second Peak really came out for business." Qing Shi frowned, "Shall we go over to say hello, Elder Han?"

Han Shuo pondered for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said, "No need, we're just out for a stroll, so why bother with their business."

"Okay." Qingshi didn't want to cause trouble in the territory of outsiders, of course he was happy not to meet Jingli and his party.

Wan Shixing didn't notice Han Shuo and Qingshi standing in the alley not far away, and after coming out of the inn, he took the three people in the well into the air and flew towards the mountain gate of Danmen.Although Han Shuo didn't want to meet them, he didn't intend to leave Danmen ahead of time just to avoid them. When he saw a few people leaving, he took Qing Shi into the inn and went straight to the reserved room.

Back in the guest room, Qingshi quickly forgot about meeting the people in the well, and took out the letter he just bought to read.Han Shuo also picked up a few volumes, read a few pages, then threw them back beside Qingshi, turned around and sat on the bed, closed his eyes and practiced.Wangshuo lies beside Qingshi boredly, and falls asleep after a while.

Qing Shi was flipping through these letters and thinking about which kinds of spiritual wine to try first when he returned home, when Han Shuo on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, "Those people are back."

"Oh?" Qingshi was stunned for a moment, thinking, come back as soon as you come back, can you still break into their room?

But Han Shuo's expression was a bit dignified, as if he was releasing his spiritual sense to find out something.

Qing didn't bother him at all, just lowered his head and continued to read his letter.

After a while, Han Shuo said again, "They are here to sell your spiritual valley."

"Uh——" Qingshi couldn't help turning his head to look at Han Shuo, "What is my spiritual valley?"

"The spiritual valley you planted is, of course, your spiritual valley." Han Shuo said with a displeased face, "I don't know who came up with the stupid idea to exchange your spiritual valley and alchemy door for pill prescriptions."

"This idea is not stupid." Qingshi touched his nose and said helplessly, "If the second peak can't find a way to cultivate the spirit valley, exchange the remaining spirit valley with other fairy gates for something more practical. It is indeed the most beneficial thing for the sect. What else should I do? Turn this errand back on me? Let alone whether the people from the second peak can afford this face, even if it is really handed over to me, I will It must be passive sabotage, so as not to waste that time and energy!"

"Why?" Han Shuo couldn't help frowning.

"This job is really hard to do. It takes time, effort, and brainpower, and it may not be successful. Even if it succeeds, it will be half the effort, and the gain is not worth the loss." Qing Shi pouted.

"What do you mean by doing twice the result with half the effort?" Han Shuo said displeasedly.

"Of course, the benefits Zongmen can give me are not directly proportional to the time and energy I have to devote." Qing Shi raised his head and said, "I am not a selfless person. I have to calculate my own interests first when doing things. I used to be in Linggu I put all my effort into it because I have an errand in the spiritual field, and planting a high-level spiritual valley can benefit me more. But now that the errands on the spiritual field are gone, no matter how much I spend my time, I can't get the same benefits as before. And I don't need to use spiritual grains to nourish myself, why do I have to do such thankless things?"

"If you return the job on the spiritual field, will you continue to cultivate the spiritual valley?" Han Shuo asked.

"Even if I am willing to go back, will you let him go?" Qing Shi rolled his eyes back at him.

Han Shuo immediately stopped talking.

"Look, you have your own selfishness, so why did you ask me to be such a saint?" Qing Shi couldn't help curling his lips, then changed his voice, and said half comforting and half coaxing, "Besides, the so-called top-grade spiritual valley is also It’s not just cultivation, even if I repeat the process at that time, I can’t guarantee that I can make exactly the same thing. Besides, the root of the great increase in the cultivation base of the low-level disciples in the past two years is the spirit. The high-level spiritual valleys that are commonly planted in the fields have nothing to do with the top-grade spiritual valley that only showed up once at your grand ceremony! The so-called top-grade spiritual valleys are just for others to see. It's just the face of others!"

"Stop rambling, I didn't force you to do anything." Han Shuo couldn't use false words like Zongmen Dayi to suppress Qingshi, and Qingshi obviously didn't accept that, so he could only voluntarily compromise and seek peace. .

"Elder Han." Qingshi pushed forward, put down the letter in his hand, got up and sat next to Han Shuo, and put his arms around his neck with a smile, "You took the initiative to help me push away that job, you can't regret it now."

"Has there ever been a time when my words don't count?" Han Shuo raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"Elder Han has always been as good as his promise, and this is what Qingshi admires the most." Qingshi smiled flatteringly.

"Since you know, why do you need to ask more?" Han Shuo pulled Qing Shi into his arms, pinched his cheek, and then sighed, "Now I'm really worried that one day I will betray the sect because of you The door is open."

"How come!" Qing Shi burst out laughing immediately, "Last time I just said it casually, do you really take it seriously?"

"I will take everything you say seriously." Han Shuo helped Qingshi up, made him sit up straight, and looked into his own eyes, "I can see that, although you don't like to lie, you don't like to lie. To tell the truth, it’s always false and true. It’s just that I’m too lazy to think about it, so I can only listen to it as the truth.”

Qing Shi chuckled, but didn't respond.

"Okay, I don't ask you to make too much contribution to my Xiantrumen." Han Shuo put his arms around Qingshi's waist and kissed the corner of his mouth, "As long as you don't harbor any ill intentions, I will Continue to protect you, anyway, those important matters involving the luck of the sect are not something you should worry about as a foundation establishment disciple."

"Then I will never be a foundation-establishing disciple who doesn't worry about the important affairs of the sect!" Qing Shi's smile remained unchanged, but his tone was somewhat meaningful.

"...Is that why you don't want to form alchemy?" Han Shuo frowned.

"I don't want to at all!" Qing Shi smiled even more joyfully.

Qingshi can probably understand the reason why Han Shuo wants him to form alchemy - Xian Chumen prohibits disciples below the foundation stage to practice double cultivation with others - if people know that the two of them have formed such a relationship, Han Shuo may only be discussed a few times , but it is very likely that he will be expelled from the inner door.It was also because of this that although Han Shuo claimed to be daring, he did not really spread the relationship between the two.And if Qing Shi formed the alchemy, this concern would no longer exist, and Han Shuo would no longer need to bother to cover up the relationship between the two.

It was just Qingshi's smile that made Han Shuo frowned even more, "Do you not want to, or can't?"

Qingshi was taken aback when he heard that, and immediately guessed that Han Shuo must have gone to the wrong place again, so he put his arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek, and said with a smile, "I don't want to, and I can't, but I definitely don't want to." Not as impossible as you think."

"you……"

"Don't worry, I will never die earlier than you." Qing Shi rested his head on Han Shuo's head, and replied as if promising.

Han Shuo was slightly taken aback, his dark eyes suddenly darkened.
