After a while, a dragon rose from the bottom of the lake and grabbed the spiritual pill that Su Mu threw into the lake with its claws.
"Dragon! The dragon from Yuecheng Lake has appeared!"
When some tourists nearby saw this scene, they were not afraid. Instead, they shouted excitedly and took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos.
Tourists in the distance heard the shouting and rushed over here.
There is a green dragon in Yuecheng Lake. They have heard of it but have never seen it.
Because this green dragon is different from the black dragon in the Dujiangyan Suolongtan, which is always open for business and you can get a photo with it as long as you pay, which is not uncommon. But the green dragon in Qingcheng Mountain is rare.
Unfortunately, the green dragon only appeared for a very short time and soon dived to the bottom of the lake and disappeared.
Some tourists who arrived late were unable to see the Green Dragon and shouted regretfully towards Yuecheng Lake, but unfortunately the Green Dragon ignored them.
The staff of the scenic spot seized the opportunity and started promoting the Green Dragon dolls, and they actually sold quite a few.
Tourists who were lucky enough to see the green dragon showed off the photos and videos they took, and commented: "The green dragon in Yuecheng Lake is smaller than the black dragon in Dujiangyan, but it is much more imposing!"
This is visionary.
The black dragon in Dujiangyan is a bit timid in character, and having been a mascot for so long, not only has its aura been dulled, but all its skills and spells have degenerated to only acting skills and illusions.
Black Dragon's current dream is to be an idol who eats and waits for death. Cultivating hard and helping the world and the people have nothing to do with him.
Not long ago, the evil dragon brought Yingyu to cause flooding in the Minjiang River, and the black dragon did not dare to show up. Because in its current state, it could not defeat the evil dragon at all, let alone the green dragon, the gatekeeper of the front mountain of Qingcheng.
But the tourist's words reminded Sumu.
No matter how cowardly the black dragon is, it is still a dragon. Even if its blood and scales are not as good as a drum, they are still better than a green dragon, right? During the holidays, I can go to Dujiangyan to have contact with the black dragon and see if I can trick him into giving me some good stuff.
Just as he was thinking, a voice sounded in his ear: "Are you the student who took the exam this year? And were you admitted to our Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University?"
Su Mu turned around and saw a middle-aged man in green standing not far away. He held a few Peiling Pills in his hand. He threw them into his mouth one by one like eating peanuts and chewed them with great relish.
"Are you...Teacher Qingjiao?" Su Mu asked.
The other party showed a satisfied expression and nodded, "It's me. Your pills are good, better than the ones those guys sent me before."
Seeing that the other party had revealed his identity, Su Mu quickly saluted and said, "I'm glad that Teacher Qing Jiao likes it. I will send some to you often in the future."
Then he introduced himself: "I was admitted to the school this year, my name is Su Mu. At that time, Teacher Qing Jiao transformed into a bridge to carry us across the lake..."
Having said that, he glanced at Yuecheng Lake.
Today, there are not only cruise ships carrying tourists on the Yuecheng Lake, but also a long, winding bridge along the mountain beside the lake. If you don't want to take a boat, you can walk across the bridge to the other side.
But none of these were there on the day of their examination!
It was obviously hidden by the teachers using magic.
What a pitfall!
Qing Jiao looked at Su Mu and said, "I have heard of your name. Forget about sending me more pills. Although this kind of spiritual cultivation pill is better than the ordinary ones, it is not very helpful to me."
It doesn't help much, but you're still eating so much? One after another without stopping.
However, the Soul-Nourishing Pill is mainly used for practitioners at level three or below. It is not very effective for practitioners above level four.
Qing Jiao's cultivation must be above level four, and he is a formal employee of Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University, with a regular salary. He can receive a lot of cultivation resources every month, so it is normal for him to look down on the Soul-cultivating Pill.
Unlike the nine-tailed snake and the fox demon, although their cultivation is above level four, they don't have anyone around them who can make medicine and make pills. For them, it's good enough to have pills to eat, so why can they be picky? They don't have that condition. That's why they crave for the spiritual pill and fall into Su Mu's trap.
"I wonder what kind of pills Teacher Qing Jiao likes to eat? I'll get some for you later."
Su Mu asked with a smile.
If you don't like the elixir, I still have the blood of the dragon. You must be interested in this, right? I'll give you a drop of the blood of the dragon in exchange for a basin... no, a bucket of dragon blood. Isn't that too much?
Qing Jiao shuddered for no reason. He always felt that there was something wrong with Su Mu's smile, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
It frowned and asked suspiciously: "You are so attentive, is there something you want me to help you with?"
"Nothing to ask for."
Su Mu shook his head, his expression very sincere: "I just want to thank Teacher Qing Jiao. It was you who carried me across the lake that gave me the opportunity to be admitted to our school. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are my guide."
Qing Jiao was very satisfied with Su Mu's compliment, but he still said modestly: "It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."
Su Mu said seriously: "It's just a piece of cake for you, but it means a lot to me and I should remember it for the rest of my life."
Over the years, the Green Dragon has carried as many candidates across the lake as the Qingcheng Mountain has hosted the examinations. Many of the students who were admitted to the Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University have come to it to "repay their vows and repay their gratitude", but most of them just gave it elixirs and left.
There are not many people who are as good at flattering as Su Mu... ahem, there are not many people who are good at talking.
Not to mention anything else, just the title of "teacher" made Qing Jiao very happy.
The students who came here before called him Senior Qing Jiao or Big Brother Qing Jiao, which was considered good. Some people who were not open-minded, following the guidance of the teacher, called him "Little Cutie".
I'm a little cutie, you're all over me! Is that a name that a freshman who just entered the school can call me? Although I, Qing Jiao, am the school's favorite, those who dare to call me "little cutie" are all senior professors and experts in various departments!
If it weren't for the spiritual food and elixirs these people brought, the Green Dragon would have slapped them in the face with its tail long ago.
The more Qing Jiao looked at Su Mu, the more satisfied he became. He smiled and said, "You are such an honest kid that I feel embarrassed. Well, the elixir I need most right now is the Water Spirit Pill. If you have a way to help me get some, I will be very grateful to you."
"Shui Ling Dan, huh? I'll remember it."
Su Mu planned to ask Xu Yue for the recipe of Shui Ling Dan when he returned.
Maybe there is no need to trouble Xu Yue. There should be relevant formulas in the library, and he can ask 404 to borrow them for him to have a look.
Qing Jiao then said, "Have you asked the teacher at school who is good at divination? Has my fate with the White Snake at the bottom of the mountain changed?"
Su Mu had already figured it out on the way here.
I can only tell the truth about this matter. Lying is easy, but once it is exposed, Qing Jiao will definitely bear a grudge against me.
So he said: "The teacher said that you two are still not destined to be together."
Qing Jiao sighed deeply: "Is it still not fate? After so many years, there has been no change at all?"
Su Mu thought for a moment and asked, "Teacher Qing Jiao, I would like to ask, how have you been pursuing the White Snake under the Mountain over the years?"
Fate is not unchangeable, and so is fate. But Qing Jiao and White Snake have been separated for so many years. Qing Jiao's conditions are not bad. He is a formal employee of a prestigious school, with a guaranteed income and strong ability. He is very attractive to ordinary monsters, let alone a snake.
If it is not a problem of conditions, then most likely there is something wrong with the way of pursuit.
Unexpectedly, after hearing his question, Qing Jiao looked confused: "Pursue? I have never pursued."
Su Mu was confused: "Haven't you always liked the white snake at the foot of the mountain? Why didn't you take action to pursue it?"
Qing Jiao spread his hands and said confidently: "Am I not waiting for fate? How can I pursue it if fate hasn't arrived yet?"
Su Mu was completely convinced. No wonder the fortune teller had predicted that he and the White Snake would be destined to be together but not to be together for so many years. If you don't work hard and fight for it, even if you are destined to be together, it will turn into a fateless relationship.
"Teacher Qing Jiao, how can you just sit and wait for fate? You have to take action and pursue it, then fate will come. Even if you fail in the end, at least you have tried your best, and you don't have to sigh like you are now."
"That makes sense. So how should I pursue it? I have no experience in this area."
Qing Jiao said embarrassedly.
You ask me? I have been single in both my past and present lives, okay?
However, Su Mu was quick-witted. Relying on his eloquence, he talked about some plots from books and TV dramas he had read before as a lesson of experience: "You can start with the white snake's hobbies and see what it likes. Use this topic as a starting point to take action..."
Qing Jiao listened very carefully, took out a pen and notebook, and took notes seriously.
Qing Jiao, who had written a thick notebook, said enthusiastically and gratefully, "Thank you so much, Su Mu. I will investigate the White Snake's preferences and then take action. Can we exchange contact information? If I encounter any problems in the future, I can consult you in time."
"No problem." Su Mu was more than happy to do so. He immediately exchanged phone numbers with Qing Jiao and added him as a friend.
Qingjiao uses a waterproof mobile phone.
After that, Qing Jiao said with some envy: "You are so experienced, you must have dated many girlfriends, right?"
Su Mu said seriously: "I just want to practice now, and I don't want to think about love!"
Qing Jiao nodded and said, "Yes, you should focus on your studies now."
After a pause, he continued, "You have helped me so much. If I don't give you a little reward, I will always feel guilty. Otherwise, how about I give you some saliva? Although my saliva is not as good as ambergris, it also has a very good effect. Whether it is used for refining medicine or cultivating spiritual plants, it is very good."
The dragon's saliva is indeed a good thing. Although it is not as good as the dragon's blood, it is a good start.
You gave me saliva today, next time, can you not give me something better? Like dragon blood, dragon scales, or something like that?
Su Mu was secretly happy in his heart, but he said, "How can this be so embarrassing?"
Qing Jiao smiled and said, "It's just saliva, what's there to be embarrassed about? I can give you more if you want!"
"Since the teacher said so, I won't be polite."
Su Mu stretched out his hand, took out a bucket from the space magic weapon, and put it on the ground.
"I just need a little bit, um, just one bucket, I'd be embarrassed to ask for more."
"You call a bucket... a little bit?"
Qing Jiao looked at the half-person-high bucket, then looked at Su Mu.
My saliva is a spiritual thing after all, and you want it by the bucket? Or just a little bit?
But the words have been spoken and there is no way to take them back. Fortunately, it was just saliva. I spit too much and it just made my mouth dry.
"In return, I have some spiritual ginseng snow bud tea for Teacher Qing Jiao. Although the spiritual power contained in it is not of much help to Teacher Qing Jiao, the taste is pure and it is still a good tea!"
Su Mu then took out a bag of tea.
Even Xu Yue said that the Lingshen Snow Bud Tea was good after drinking it, so there was no need to worry that Qing Jiao would not like it.
Sure enough, after sniffing the fragrance of the ginseng tea, the displeasure on Qing Jiao's face faded a lot, and he thought to himself: "This kid is kind-hearted. Although he made me drool a lot, he was thoughtful to give me such a bag of tea."
How could it know that this trick was often used by Su Mu when he was planning it.
First, rip off the players, and then give them some compensation. In this way, many players will turn from haters to fans and feel that the game is so conscientious.
Actually? It’s all a trick!
Qing Jiao was undoubtedly tricked into it, and even felt that Su Mu taking out a bucket to hold the dragon saliva was a reflection of his honesty and naturalness.
