Chapter 52 Trouble
The sky is blue and the clouds are white, and the snow has just cleared up.
The weather after the snow was even colder. There was no heating in Gao Xian's room and the windows were not light-transmitting, so the room was as cold as an ice cave.
Zhou Yuling was cold all over as she walked along, and she was reluctant to let go of Gao Xian.
"How is it? Is it comfortable?"
Gao Xian said with a smile: "Is it cold when you sleep at night? I can warm the bed for you."
"You wish."
Zhou Yuling pinched the soft flesh on Gao Xian's waist, but the feeling was not as comfortable as before. It was particularly tough and she couldn't use any strength.
She immediately noticed something was wrong and said in surprise: "Your cultivation has improved recently!"
"Well, I'm already at the third level of Qi training."
Gao Xian felt a little proud and complacent. With his physical talent, it was really not easy for him to break through to the third level of Qi training so quickly.
After practicing in the mountains for more than thirty days and fighting almost every day, he learned how to control his qi and blood, and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds during this period.
This would stimulate the blood and make the whole body warm. When Zhou Yuling pinched him, his muscles naturally contracted to resist, making it impossible for Zhou Yuling to exert any force.
“Not bad, not bad.”
Zhou Yuling was very happy for Gao Xian. "Although the Five Elements Kung Fu is ordinary, it is moderate and peaceful. The further you go, the faster you will progress."
In order to encourage Gao Xian to practice well, Zhou Yuling said softly: "When you reach the late stage of Qi training, we can be together openly, and my father will have no reason to object."
"The late stage of Qi training..."
Gao Xian thought about it and decided that if everything went well, he should be able to reach the late stage of Qi training in less than ten or eight years.
I was in my thirties by then, so it was still not too late!
He said confidently: "Just wait for me, it won't take long."
Zhou Yuling was very satisfied with Gao Xian's attitude. The most important thing for a cultivator is cultivation. Things like refining pills and making talismans are just means to assist cultivation, and one should not put the cart before the horse.
In the past, Gao Xian was indecisive and had no idea what he wanted to do.
After coming to Pegasus, Gao Xian has obviously matured a lot.
She praised him, "With your talent, you will surely be able to achieve the Golden Elixir in the future."
Gao Xian shook his head: "Golden Pill, how is that possible!"
Just as Zhou Yuling was about to encourage Gao Xian, she heard Gao Xian say, "I am destined to become the man of the Divine Transformation Dao Lord!"
"Ha ha……"
Zhou Yuling's body trembled with laughter. She hugged Gao Xian's neck and teased, "No, you want to be the man of Taoist Chunyang! Hahaha..."
"Hmm? There is also a level of Pure Yang Dao Zun?"
Gao Xian obtained knowledge from the original owner and thought that being a Taoist Master was the pinnacle.
“Hahahaha…” Zhou Yuling laughed even more happily.
She laughed for a long time before stopping, "No more, no more, my mouth is sore from laughing."
Gao Xian volunteered: "I can help you relax with a massage." As he said that, he opened his mouth.
“Again!”
Zhou Yuling held Gao Xian's mouth with her palm and said, "Behave yourself, or I'll leave."
"I don't!"
…
Gao Xian and Zhou Yuling laughed and joked for a while, and then they felt completely relaxed, and the tension and suppressed emotions that had been in their hearts for more than a month were completely released.
Flirting and being intimate with beautiful women, this is the life he wants!
Zhou Yuling got down to business: "The deer antlers are selling very well, and my dad asked me to get some more."
"Okay, I'll give you two thousand."
Gao Xian refined four thousand pills of Deer Horn Powder a few days ago, so there should be enough in stock now.
After several promotions, the sales of Lujiaosan have stabilized. Two thousand pills are enough to sell for a month.
After all, this kind of thing is very energy-consuming, and Lujiaosan is very expensive, so it is already very good to have this sales volume.
Gao Xian took out a small box of Deer Horn Powder from his storage bag, which contained exactly two thousand pills.
"Oh, you have a storage bag, ha, you really have made a fortune..." Zhou Yuling was very happy for Gao Xian when she saw that he had a storage bag, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
She knew that Lujiaosan and Tianguidan were selling very well, and Gao Xian had earned a lot of spirit stones during this period.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm lucky." Gao Xian replied casually. He didn't dare to say that it was a gift from Zhu Qiniang.
Zhou Yuling didn't hear the problem either. She took out two blue spirit stones and put them in Gao Xian's hand. "Two hundred low-grade spirit stones, I will help you change them into two medium-grade spirit stones. It's convenient to hold them."
Gao Xian looked at the azure and transparent spirit stone with a face full of love.
Low-grade spirit stones are cyan, and medium-grade spirit stones are blue. The different colors actually represent the difference in the concentration of spiritual energy.
One medium-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones. This is the public price. However, medium-grade spirit stones are relatively rare.
It is easy to exchange medium-grade spirit stones for low-grade spirit stones, but it is a bit more troublesome to exchange low-grade spirit stones for medium-grade spirit stones, and often a premium is required to obtain them.
"Look at you, you're a money-grubber."
Zhou Yuling tapped Gao Xian's forehead and said, "Your cultivation is too low now. Don't save the spiritual stones. Use them to buy magical instruments and talismans to protect yourself."
She glanced at the dilapidated house and said, "It's better to move to another house. This one is too dilapidated and unsafe. The mountain is blocked by heavy snow, and all the cultivators on the mountain have fled to Pegasus. This group of people is extremely vicious and dangerous!"
Zhou Yuling knew that Gao Xian had little experience, so she seriously reminded Gao Xian to be careful.
Although Gao Xian had heard Qi Niang say this before, he still nodded repeatedly and listened obediently.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
"The weather is getting colder. You really need to buy a robe. Usually, the robe has the spring breeze spell. In winter, it can release warm wind to help you get through the cold winter. In summer, it can blow cool wind to relieve the heat. It is very convenient and easy to use."
"When you go out, you must put on a Taoist robe. Don't just wear a Buddhist robe. It's easy to attract trouble..."
Zhou Yuling was very thoughtful and explained everything in detail, for fear that Gao Xian would do something stupid and get into trouble.
"Yeah, I'm being careful. You should be careful too."
Although Gao Xian was going to move to the yard behind Lingfu Hall in a few days, he didn't say it because he wanted to give Zhou Yuling a surprise.
After sending Zhou Yuling away, Gao Xian felt that what she said was right. With the spirit stones, he would buy magic tools and talismans to improve himself.
Well, I'll buy a robe first. The robe with the spring breeze spell sounds good. This cold winter is too hard to endure.
He poured out all the spirit stones from the storage bag and counted them carefully.
In a few months, Tiangui Dan and Lujiao San helped him earn two medium-grade spirit stones and more than two hundred low-grade spirit stones.
During this period, he spent 120 spirit stones to buy the Stone-Cutting Sword and the Water and Fire Lotus Silk Boots.
He also spent money to buy medicinal materials. Of course, compared with the profit of the elixir, the material cost was not worth mentioning.
During this period of time, he also earned a lot of spirit stones by practicing in the mountains. After deducting the prepaid rent and the money for doing things for Da Niu, he still had 172 low-grade spirit stones left.
Converted into low-grade spirit stones, the total is 531 pieces. With so many spirit stones, it can be considered as a luxury in Pegasus!
The 3,000 pills prepaid to Zhou Ye and Huang Ying will not be settled until next month. By then, another 300 spirit stones will be required.
Gao Xian put most of the spirit stones into the storage bag, and hid the storage bag in the inner pocket of the Qingmu Armor. It is very safe here and will never be stolen.
He placed a medium-grade spirit stone and dozens of low-grade spirit stones in the compartment of the treadmill. He sorted out all the talismans in his sleeve pocket and pinned the stone-slashing sword diagonally on the treadmill.
The 17-jin stone-cutting sword is a bit heavy and not suitable for hanging, so it can only be hung diagonally on the walking stick.
This way of wearing a sword is also obviously more tough.
Gao Xian practiced in the mountains for more than 20 days and gained confidence. He walked with his long sword in his hand, no longer timid as before.
But it's really cold outside.
Gao Xian walked with his head held high for a short distance when a gust of cold wind blew over, making him want to shrink his neck.
Not long after walking, Gao Xian heard shouting and killing ahead.
He was slightly startled and took a few quick steps. When he turned an intersection, he saw a group of people fighting in front of him.
There were actually some cultivators around watching the fun, but they were all smart enough to keep a safe distance.
There were more than a dozen people on both sides of the battle, and the smaller side had only three people, led by a woman.
However, it was the side with fewer people that had the upper hand.
Especially the woman in green who was leading the group. Her green clothes were glowing with light and it was obviously a robe.
Her swordsmanship was sharp, and the long sword in her hand was extremely sharp.
No matter whether it was the Yimu shield or any other armor or protective magic weapon, none of them could withstand the attack of the azure sword.
Wherever the green sword light flashed, it left behind a trail of corpses.
In the blink of an eye, the side with more people was killed and collapsed. The remaining few cultivators fled in panic.
One of the cultivators was running towards Gao Xian, shouting as he ran: "Daoyou, why don't you take action!"
Gao Xian couldn't help cursing in his heart: "You old man, you still want to drag someone down with you before you die!"
