Chapter 124 Raising Cicada
When young men and women meet again after a long absence, it's a great feeling.
Pei Ning's temperament is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and so are people.
At first she insisted on letting Lin Bai read the letter, but after a few thrusts, she softened.
The Earth Fire Cave is already hot, but under the influence of emotion, the fire becomes even more intense. Pei Ning's slightly cool skin immediately warmed up, and then became hot, with a dense pink color, as if it were smeared with red flowers.
Her fair face was even more flushed, and her eyes looked blurry. She bit her lower lip, holding back and keeping silent, but her body cooperated with Lin Bai.
Not long after, I saw her closing her eyes, frowning, lowering her arms, tightly grasping the sides of the squat.
After a while, I heard her moan softly, her slim waist straightened up, her body tensed and trembling slightly.
"You still want me to stop reading?" Lin Bai stopped and asked.
Pei Ning ignored her at all. Her eyes were blurred and she was muttering something unknown.
After a long commotion and several cloud movements, both of them stopped.
Pei Ning was lying on her side, her head resting on Lin Bai's arm. The flush on her face was still there, her dark eyes kept looking at her, and she didn't speak.
Lin Bai was still measuring her size, feeling that it had been a long time since she last saw her, and Sister Pei seemed to be no longer as big as Qu Ruyi.
"You have changed." Peining said.
"Don't talk nonsense." Lin Bai was startled, "I am honest and honest, and I guard my mind as well as my body."
"Oh, why are you guilty of being a thief?" Pei Ning smiled, and his cold eyes in the past turned into gentleness, and whispered: "Previously, your body was slightly dark red, with a slight fire. Now the dark red is gone, but there is a heavy feeling. . The breath is longer and the strength has increased a little. ”
"How do you feel?" Lin Bai asked.
"It feels like..." Pei Ning blushed even more. She didn't look at Lin Bai and said angrily, "Lin Zhuanlun, you only think about this all day?"
"Are you having wild thoughts?" Lin Bai felt aggrieved. "I mean, what do you mean by my body tempering method?" Lin Bai looked at her with a smile.
"..." Pei Ning glared at Lin Bai and said, "Let's wait until you have the five elements to unite and then talk about it!" She pinched Lin Bai angrily and said, "Did you meet an acquaintance outside?"
"How can you tell?" Lin Bai was very curious.
"When you came back earlier, you were happy when you saw me, but you were a little wary." Pei Ning blinked, "Meeted Qu Ruyi? Did she ask you about me?"
Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the person next to you. Lin Bai said in admiration: "That's true."
Pei Ning pushed his head away, "Don't eat it yet." She smiled happily, "I worked as a guide for her in Huaxi County, and we got along with each other every day. She took a liking to me." She stared at Lin Bai with eyes. With a smile, she said, "Actually, she told me that she wanted to take me away, but I declined."
"Qu Ruyi is not a good person."
Lin Bai was immediately angry, "When I went out, I happened to meet her looking for Tianqi." Lin Bai was innocent, so naturally he was not afraid of anything. "I should have known I wouldn't have helped her build the foundation."
When Pei Ning heard this, he stared at Lin Bai and said, "Are we in a life-and-death crisis again?"
Lin Bai nodded, "It was very involved, but I was lucky enough to survive."
"If you didn't go out, how could there be an accident?" Pei Ning complained, but his eyes were concerned.
"This is not something you would say." Lin Bai smiled.
"I'm speaking on behalf of Girl Jiang." Pei Ning smiled, took out a letter and stuffed it into Lin Bai's face. "After all, Qu Ruyi is a little older, and she loves men's clothing. I'm afraid it's not to your taste, and it's not as fragrant as Jiang Yatou."
Lin Bai took the letter, tore it open and read. There was only one line on it: I have practiced Qi to the seventh level.
Pei Ning also came over to take a look, "Why didn't I tell you the date of the letter?"
She had a smile on her face, but also a sinister look on her face.
"She's still young, what are you talking about?" Lin Bai said seriously.
"You will grow up in two years." Pei Ning looked at Lin Bai, sincerely and tenderly, "This is not bad, you are not a mess. If you are capable, I will only praise you."
After saying this, she pushed Lin Bai away and said with a smile: "Lin Zhuanlun, when you said Qu Ruyi just now, you didn't react at all. How come you were so moved when I mentioned Jiang Yatou?" She smiled happily, "If you say You and Girl Jiang are innocent, I don’t believe it at all.”
Lin Bai knew that he couldn't reason with her, so he didn't reply and just complimented her.
After a long fuss and a lot of effort, Pei Ning was finally made comfortable and the matter was revealed.
After three days of going crazy day and night, a spiritual power came from outside.
This means visiting. Jiang Chun is a person who knows etiquette. When he sees Pei Ning not coming out, he will not disturb him rashly. Therefore, it must be Yao Qianyuan.
Pei Ning hurriedly put on the Taoist robe, tied up her hair, and put on the hairpin.
Lin Bai slowly cleaned up the cave before opening the door.
Sure enough, it was Yao Qianyuan.
She stepped into the cave and didn't say anything. She just looked around with a smile on her lips.
When Lin Bai saw her, he remembered that Gao Yuanyuan said that Qu Chengjia was invited away by Yao Wanshan, and it seemed that he was away on work.
Yao Wanshan is the ancestor of Yao Qianyuan.
Although Lin Bai was curious, he knew that it was difficult to inquire about this matter. Besides, Yao Qianyuan must not know about the secret of Jin Dan.
"Senior Sister Yao." Lin Bai and Peining saluted.
Yao Qianyuan nodded with her hands behind her back, walked closer to Pei Ning, took a closer look, and said with a smile: "The skin is fair and delicate, bright and charming, and the spring between the brows is not gone, not as cold and glamorous as before." She touched her palms and praised, "It seems It’s full.”
She looked at Lin Bai again and said: "There is no sign of fatigue, the eyes are clear and alert, and there is no dull bloodshot. It seems that I have not taken the Tiger Wolf Pill. I thought there would only be dregs of the medicine left, but I didn't expect you to be quite capable."< br>
Yao Qianyuan nodded approvingly, as if he was evaluating medicinal herbs.
Pei Ning had long been accustomed to Yao Qianyuan's flirtatious remarks, so he didn't blush or speak.
Lin Bai couldn't chase people away, and he had something to ask, so he asked Yao Qianyuan to sit down and poured hot tea.
"Where have you been recently?" Yao Qianyuan touched the rim of the tea cup and asked curiously.
"I have been refining alchemy for a long time, and I feel very boring, so I asked my friends to go out for a walk to relax." Lin Baila and Peining sat across from her, and said with a smile: "Senior sister is still as charming as ever."
"The grace is still the same? How can it compare to someone who has been nourished for three days and three nights." Yao Qianyuan smiled charmingly, not caring that Pei Ning was right next to her. She nodded at the low table and said, "Junior brother can make elixirs and serve women. It’s really enviable.”
Lin Bai pretended not to understand, and just pretended to ask for advice, asking: "Sister, I want to find a place with abundant water and wood spiritual energy. Can you tell me where to look?"
Now practice the Hunyuan body tempering method, and after tempering the body with earth spiritual energy, you can go to the Zhu family's territory to temper the body with metal spiritual energy.
Metal generates water, and water generates wood. Lin Bai needs to be prepared in advance.
The first consideration is safety and tranquility. Therefore, you cannot go out of Fangshi. You need to find it within Fangshi and from various Jindan sects and families.
"What are you going to do?" Yao Qianyuan smiled when she heard this, "You are in the Earth Fire Cave, and you are looking for a place with dense water and dense trees." There was a smile on her face, "What are you doing again? Fire is both water and wood, quite similar to one of my senior sisters.”
Quite similar? Lin Bai was very curious, wondering if he had met a fellow disciple and learned the Hunyuan body tempering method?
Pei Ning saw Lin Bai's expression and inquired for him: "Why is he similar to that senior sister?"
Yao Qianyuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "That senior sister also has the beauty of the five elements and understands the method of the five elements."
Lin Bai felt itchy and immediately asked: "How do you say it?"
Yao Qianyuan clapped her hands and said: "According to the order of the five elements, she first looks for people with wood in their destiny, then looks for people with fire, then looks for people with earth, and then gold and water."
"Then what?" Lin Bai became even more curious, wondering what kind of secret method was this? Or do we need to form a formation?
"Then let's sleep one by one." Yao Qianyuan said.
Lin Bai was speechless. Is this senior sister not practicing the Five Elements method, but having a hobby of collecting? Could it be that he got the inheritance from Jiuyin Mountain?
Pei Ning smiled and looked at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai had a tacit understanding with her and knew her depth and depth. He immediately understood that she wanted to say that she had tried her own fire and earth.
Lin Bai stared at her, indicating that there was another three among the five elements, which you would not miss.
Pei Ning turned his head away from Lin Bai.
"Senior sister," Lin Bai could only look at Yao Qianyuan helplessly and said, "Please give me some advice. I'm not joking." "I didn't say you were joking." Yao Qianyuan was very happy when she saw Lin Bai was embarrassed and said: "No, just Are you looking for a place with plenty of water?" She sat upright, tapped her fingers on the table, and said with a smile: "It's far away, so why bother looking for something far away?"
Lin Bai heard this and glanced at Pei Ning.
"Senior sister," Lin Bai was extremely helpless, "I am here for practice, not for use. Don't make fun of Pei Ning."
Yao Qianyuan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Peining meaningfully.
Pei Ning finally blushed. She glared at Lin Bai and said word by word: "Senior sister means the Jiang family."
I see!
"..." Lin Bai had a severe headache. He was familiar with Yao Qianyuan, and he unconsciously thought that there must be something sexy in her words, so he kept thinking in wrong ways.
"There is a large lake in Jiangjia Benshan Mountain, named Yuhu. It is surrounded by more than a dozen small lakes. It is a place full of water and vapor." Yao Qianyuan explained with a smile, "Go and ask Jiang Yatou for some spiritual stones. It will probably happen." It can be done.”
"Thank you, senior sister, for the tip." Lin Bai thanked him immediately.
"As for the place with abundant wood spiritual energy," Yao Qianyuan thought for a while and said, "Chunyu's family has a cave. The place is not big, and most of it is for his own use. There are also places that can be rented out, but they are a little more expensive. They are usually rented by building foundations. .”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Lin Bai and said with a smile: "If you want a short-term rental, remember to find me, it can be cheaper."
"Thank you, senior sister." Lin Bai thanked him sincerely, and took out a bottle of Qi Condensing Pill and offered it to him, "Senior sister, please accept it."
Yao Qianyuan accepted it unceremoniously.
After messing around for a while, Lin Bai sent Yao Qianyuan and Pei Ning away.
After closing the cave door, Lin Bai sat quietly for a while and examined himself.
After three days of being crazy, I don’t feel tired at all. The effect of body tempering became more and more obvious, and Lin Bai was very satisfied.
After turning on the earth fire and making a furnace of Qi Condensing Pills, another burst of spiritual power entered.
The door opened and it was Jiang Chun.
"Brother Jiang."
"Good brother."
The two of them saluted and sat down opposite each other to drink tea and chat.
After complimenting each other, Jiang Chun got down to business.
"My dear brother, I am sure that I will be happy and happy when I go on a foreign trip this time. I believe that I will be able to make further progress in the alchemy path." Jiang Chun directed his words to alchemy.
"I do have some insights." Lin Bai said with a smile.
"That's good." Jiang Chun chuckled, "It's been more than two months since you left, and I've run out of pills long ago."
"Brother Jiang is responsible for the inheritance of the family. If I had known I would have made two more furnaces." Lin Bai immediately agreed, "I have nothing to do these days, so I will concentrate on refining the elixir for Brother Jiang."
"Thank you very much for your kindness and righteousness," Jiang Chun immediately saluted.
"Brother Jiang, you're welcome."
Lin Bai waved his hand, "That's right." Then he began to make conditions, "I have something to do, and I want to ask Brother Jiang for help."
"But you want to go to the underground cave to observe the underground fire?" Jiang Chun took out the wooden box with a relaxed smile on his face.
"That's not true." Lin Bai shook his head and said, "I have learned a new technique, which requires a place with water to practice it. I heard that Brother Jiang's home has the Jade Lake Spiritual Land, so I don't plan to go outside to ask. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chun immediately said: "Xian brother, we Qi training monks should focus on cultivation and should not be obsessed with magic." He was quite serious and serious, and continued: "Especially in the early and middle stages of Qi training, even if After learning the technique, due to the limitations of the realm, the power is only mediocre. Therefore, it is only proper to practice the technique in the later stage of Qi training, or after establishing the foundation. Most of the people who specialize in the technique during the Qi training period often go out. A desperate cultivator, or someone with no hope of success.”
These words were sincere, and every word made sense. People really did not regard Lin Bai as an ordinary acquaintance.
Lin Bai was very grateful, but couldn't listen.
"Brother Jiang has good intentions, of course I know it." Lin Bai gave him more tea and said shamefully: "I don't hide it from Brother Jiang. In fact, when I went out, I realized that I needed to find a place with dense water and air. ”
"You observe earth fire and are good at refining elixirs. Now you are asking for water. Could it be that water and fire complement each other?" Jiang Chun touched his chin and actually helped Lin Baiyuan.
"Yes, yes." Lin Bai responded immediately.
"That's fine." Jiang Chun nodded, "I have the Yuhu Spiritual Land at home, let me ask you about it." He looked at Lin Bai and asked, "When will you use it?"
"Two and a half months later." Lin Bai replied.
"Okay." Jiang Chun pondered for a while and then said with a smile: "Write a letter to my little sister again and ask her to contribute. The person who looks after Yuhu is my uncle, and he loves my little sister the most."< br>
"Thank you, Brother Jiang." Lin Bai thanked him immediately, took out a pen and paper, and started writing a letter immediately.
In the past, when communicating with Girl Jiang, they were taunting each other and getting angry at each other, but now they are asking for help. Lin Bai was thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he wrote kind words for free.
After writing the letter, Lin Bai handed it over to Jiang Chun.
The two talked nonsense for a while, and Jiang Chun left.
After closing the door, Lin Bai cleaned up the cave.
I also made a batch of Tiger Wolf Pills and used them to calm my mind.
Close your eyes and think back to the first time you used the Deadwood Cicada Talisman. That time it was Song Qing and Zhang Han. The two of them suffered from years of torture, and the dignified immortal master fell into the mortal world.
Next is in the underground cave, Liu Boss and Qu Ruyi stepped into the land of Jade Chan, and the years passed rapidly on the two of them.
"Strange, magical."
Lin Bai took out the jade cicada and looked at it carefully.
It has the meaning of warmth and moistness. It is completely black and about the same size as an ordinary cicada.
I don’t know what material it is made of, but the workmanship is average and a bit ugly.
Taking out Xiu Xiu's purse, comparing the two, Xiu Xiu's embroidery skills are indeed slightly better.
Lin Bai put away his purse and took a closer look. The jade cicada's wings are extremely thin, its body is slightly shiny, but its eyes are extremely dim.
Lin Bai took a few breaths and felt nothing in his heart before he reached out his consciousness and connected with it.
Just like ordinary things, nothing special was found.
A little input of spiritual power is like a stone sinking into the ocean.
"How to use this thing?"
Lin Bai felt that he had little knowledge, but he did not dare to ask others.
Drops of blood? That was even more impossible. Lin Bai didn't even dare to try.
"After Qu Ruyi got the jade cicada, he didn't know how to use it. But after building the foundation, he seemed to know how to use the jade cicada."
"Before building the foundation, she had a feeling. She once said that the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and that living towards death is a cyclical and endless truth."
Lin Bai held the jade cicada in his hand and thought about it for a long time, but found nothing.
"Shen Xu said that jade cicadas need to be raised. What does 'raise' mean?"
"Does it mean that Jade Chan cannot be received in the storage ring and needs to be carried with her at all times?"
"What will happen after you grow up?"
Lin Bai thought about it for a long time, but still got nothing.
In this case, Lin Bai no longer thought about it, took out a piece of thread, made the jade cicada into a pendant, and hung it around his neck.
"Wear it for a few days and see if there are any changes in the jade cicada."
Lin Bai thought like this and started refining the Tiger Wolf Pill again.
