The Wheel-Turning Master

Lin Bai did not go back to the Earth Fire Cave Mansion directly, but wandered around.

Now there are some problems in cultivation. If cultivation was like a big river before, it is just a stream now.

But this is not a big deal. With the stone plate, I can just endure it slowly.

Maybe it will get better at any time. It is really unpredictable in cultivation.

Moreover, as the success rate of the Gujing Pills shown to Fengming Pavilion gradually increases, I can get spirit stones from Fengming Pavilion in a month or two.

Although Zhu Yuling has not mentioned the share of spirit stones for Gujing Pills, given Senior Zhu's style of doing things, I believe he will not treat her unfairly.

In fact, in Lin Bai's opinion, he was able to learn the method of alchemy because of the favor of the Zhu family, and he could work for his family for free for a few years.

Anyway, he recovered quickly, and even if he worked for his family for free, he could still take private jobs.

After wandering around the market for a long time, seeing that it was dusk, Lin Bai went back to the Jiang family cave mansion.

As soon as he entered the Jiang family's property, he saw the Jiang family's girl.

Jiang Xiaobai also saw Lin Bai. She didn't say anything, but just looked up, looking arrogant and disdainful.

Lin Bai didn't want to go up and provoke him, but thinking that he was a Jindan disciple and was at the fifth level of Qi training like him, he must have some experience in cultivation.

"Ah, ah, fellow Daoist Jiang! I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much!"

Lin Bai spoke from a distance, walked up to him, bowed, and said with a smile: "I have been in seclusion for many days, and as soon as I came out, I wanted to sit and discuss Taoism with fellow Daoist, but I couldn't find you despite my hard search, which really made me feel lost! Now I meet you by chance on the roadside, and I see your grace again, which makes me feel very happy!"

Jiang Xiaobai laughed, put his hands on his waist, and said: "Shameless! I think you wish you couldn't see me?"

"How could that be?" Lin Bai pretended not to hear the sarcasm in his words, and smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, come to my cave and sit for a while?"

"What do you want to do?" The girl immediately folded her hands in front of her, and her face was still a little unnatural.

Why do you look a little afraid of me? Are you still very cautious?

Lin Bai didn't ask any more questions, and smiled sincerely, "I have some questions about cultivation, and I want to ask for your advice."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai relaxed, and her face was even more unhappy, saying, "You have been in Fengming Pavilion for a long time, and you can sleep three times, but you can't solve your problems?"

"You followed me?" Lin Bai thought carefully, and he had never been followed by anyone.

Jiang Xiaobai's face did not change, he just crossed his arms in front of his chest, looked up at Lin Bai, and said disdainfully, "I just happened to see you on the road, and I followed you? How much do you weigh?"

Lin Bai felt that there was no need to talk to her more, so he asked directly: "Jiang Xiaodaoyou, I have encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation recently, and my progress has been much slower. It seems that there is a barrier in front of me, and I am quite stagnant. What do you think?"

"I don't know." Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and spread his hands, "What barrier is there? It's just cultivation, isn't it the same as eating and drinking water? Did you choke?"

Sure enough, the difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

Lin Bai was speechless for a while.

Lin Bai bowed and said goodbye.

He went back to the Dihuo Cave Mansion and met Chun Ge again.

This Chun Ge was a member of the Jiang family and had always been in charge of the Dihuo Cave Mansion. His full name was Jiang Chun and he was Jiang Xiaobai's cousin.

Lin Bai was a hungry man who didn't care about food and had always been thick-skinned, so he asked Jiang Chun.

After listening, Jiang Chun smiled and said, "Why not go out for a walk and relax. Visit relatives and friends, enjoy the scenery, drink and have fun. You may feel something and the stagnation will go away."

Lin Bai thanked him and went back to the cave mansion.

I thought about what good friends I had, and there was only Zhu Yumao.

As for the friend Wang Daoyou who I met when I first arrived here, I'm afraid he has forgotten the friendship of eating donuts together.

I opened Zhu Yumao's letter and there was nothing to say. He just wrote a few words of gossip and said that he would come to Xinyifang soon and take me to meet some friends at that time.

Lin Bai was naturally looking forward to it, but he didn't know when Zhu Yumao would come.

The "soon" mentioned by the cultivators often means several months, or even longer.

"Let's wait for Sister Pei to come down the mountain. She promised me that she would let me sleep when she comes down the mountain..."

"Maybe she will be fine after a few sleeps."

Lin Bai didn't think about it anymore and immediately started to refine the pill.

Half a month later, Lin Bai took the Gujing Pill and went to Fengming Pavilion.

This time, more than 30 pills were made, and Zhu Yuling was quite happy. She chatted with Lin Bai about many family matters and was very intimate.

However, Lin Bai knew that she didn't mean to covet him, and most of them wanted to find a future for her mortal sister.

Another half a month later, Lin Bai went to Fengming Pavilion again. This time, he made a lot of pills, more than 60 pills, and the success rate was 30%.

Zhu Yuling was even more happy, and kept hinting that she had a sister from the clan who had entered the practice.

However, she didn't say it clearly, and didn't force it, so Lin Bai naturally declined.

In the blink of an eye, another half month had passed. This time, more than 120 pills were made, and the success rate was more than 60%.

Zhu Yuling stopped introducing her sister, and her face was quite disappointed and unwilling.

Zhu Jianyang didn't say much, and encouraged her a few more words.

This morning, Lin Bai put away the Gujing Pills he had refined and prepared to go to Fengming Pavilion. Zhu Yuling wanted to give him spirit stones a few times before, but Lin Bai just refused. However, Senior Zhu Jianyang said that from this time on, he had to settle the accounts clearly.

In other words, Lin Bai could get spirit stones by refining Gujing Pills.

The Zhu family was still very honest in doing things.

Just as he was about to open the door of the cave, a subtle spiritual power suddenly came in from outside.

After opening the door, he saw two people standing at the door.

One was an old acquaintance, a jerk from the Jiang family.

The other was a female cultivator, about twenty years old, with an average appearance. There was a vicissitude on her face, but she was excited.

This female cultivator is Huang Ruhua, the Daoist friend Huang who had gone out to risk his life.

Is this successful? Seeing this, Lin Bai smiled and bowed, saying, "Daoist friend Huang? When did you come back? Congratulations!"

Lin Bai immediately congratulated and asked someone to come in, "Please come in and have some tea."

Huang Ruhua stepped into the cave, saying, "I just came back yesterday." As she spoke, she sat opposite Lin Bai.

Jiang Xiaobai also followed in, muttering that the place was too small and she couldn't stretch her legs.

Lin Bai glanced at her legs, which were not very long. After pouring hot tea for Huang Ruhua, Lin Bai did not say anything.

Huang Ruhua took the teacup and did not say anything.

Jiang Xiaobai finally realized something was wrong and walked out with a sneer, "Okay, okay, you can just talk in private!"

Huang Ruhua quickly bowed and said, "Don't blame Daoist friend Jiang Xiao, you are worth a lot of money, let's..."

"I understand." Jiang Xiaobai walked away, not forgetting to glare at Lin Bai fiercely.

After she left, Lin Bai closed the cave door.

"Thank you for the elixir." Huang Ruhua stood up and bowed.

"You are too polite. Your return this time is your credit, not the elixir, nor mine. How can you talk about gratitude?" Lin Bai smiled and poured her tea again.

Huang Ruhua was relieved to see that Lin Bai was not holding a favor, and sat down calmly.

"Where is that fellow Daoist Wang?" Lin Bai asked casually.

"Wang Zizai is dead." Huang Ruhua sighed.

This Wang Zizai is the old cultivator surnamed Wang before, who led Huang Ruhua out to venture.

"He's dead?" Lin Bai was shocked. Wang Zizai was in the late stage of Qi training, how could he die, but you are fine?

"Yes." Huang Ruhua held the teacup, did not drink, just lowered her head.

Lin Bai nodded and stopped asking. If people are willing to talk about such confidential matters, then they can say it. If you ask rashly, you will be disgusted.

After all, they were not close friends.

But Huang Ruhua seemed to be unaware of keeping a secret, and said, "There is an inscription in the cave ruins, which was left by the owner of the ruins. The owner's surname is Dong, and his cultivation level is unknown."

At this point, she sighed quietly, and then said, "There were four of us in total. I was responsible for guarding the door, and the three of them broke the protective array. After a month of grinding, the protective array was finally broken, but there was an illusion array inside. Fellow Daoist Wang slipped and fell into the array, and eventually died of exhaustion."

"What about the other two?" Lin Bai asked again.

"Those two were lucky and survived." Huang Ruhua showed a miserable smile after surviving a disaster, "Only Fellow Daoist Wang Zizai was killed. We barely got some things on this trip, but the most valuable things have not been taken yet."

"So, only Fellow Daoist Wang Zizai slipped and died of exhaustion in the cave of the high-level cultivator surnamed Dong?" Lin Bai asked.

"That's right." Huang Ruhua nodded.
