Chapter 119 Painting
It was getting dark. Shi Xiaoliu came out and lit a pile of firewood, then he jumped onto the roof.
He saw streaks of light and shadows passing across the sky, and his mood suddenly became heavy.
Shi Zelan came out of the room and added thick tree roots to the firewood. Then she floated over to Shi Xiaoliu and sat down.
She looked up and saw rays of light passing by the horizon. She stood up and sent a message to Master Shanzheng: "Master, I made a lot of talismans."
After a long, long time, she received a message from Shanzheng Zhenren: "Good."
Shi Zelan felt much more at ease. She sat next to Shi Xiaoliu and looked up at the sky like him.
At this moment, there were no more rays of light and shadow in the sky. Shi Xiaoliu looked down at Shi Zelan and said, "Sister Lan, let's continue digging herbs and making tea tomorrow."
Shi Zelan nodded and said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Have you heard any movement of the animals these days?"
Shi Xiaoliu thought seriously for a moment and shook his head: "Since the excavation of that land, I haven't heard any movement from them."
Shi Zelan stood up: "I'm going to draw talismans and practice."
Shi Xiaoliu sat on the roof: "Okay, I'm here, you can practice drawing talismans with peace of mind."
Shi Zelan stopped and looked at him: "Xiao Liu, you also go to practice, and we will each set up a protective barrier."
Shi Xiaoliu nodded and flew down behind Shi Zelan. He still stayed alert and paid attention to the surrounding situation.
After a peaceful night, Shi Zelan woke up and saw Shi Xiaoliu turning over and drying herbs on the open ground. He smiled and said to Shi Zelan, "I brought the tea leaves under the eaves to dry."
"I'll also take the tea leaves out and dry them for a day."
Shi Zelan sent a greeting message to Master Shanzheng, but received no reply. She asked Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, did Master send you any message?"
Shi Xiaoliu shook his head and said, "No, let's go collect herbs first and then come back to practice."
The two of them went to the nearby mountain to collect herbs. After collecting two baskets of herbs, Shi Zelan asked worriedly, "Xiao Liu, do you have a place to store so many herbs?"
"Yes, after the herbs are dried and processed, they don't actually take up that much space."
Shi Zelan looked up at the sky, and when she saw a ray of light in the sky, she pulled Shi Xiaoliu down and hid in the deep grass.
After the light and shadow went back and forth above them several times, it finally flew away and Shi Zelan sat down on the ground.
Shi Xiaoliu's expression was not looking good either: "Do you also think that what happened just now is not right?"
"Xiao Liu, we can't go back for the time being."
The two decided to find a cave to take shelter. As long as Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng did not send any news, they still had to be careful.
Just as they were about to get up, they heard voices coming from the foot of the mountain. After looking at each other, they quickly walked up the mountain.
"The Yun Yan Sect must have found a treasure on this mountain. Do you see the barrier that the Yun Yan Sect has set up on the mountain over there?"
"Brother, are we really going to pick up the Yun Yan Sect's treasure?"
"We are righteous people. We passed by here and saw that the fellow Taoists of Yun Yan Sect were in trouble, so we helped them."
"Yes, Senior Brother, my vision is not as broad as yours."
"Let's go to the top of the mountain and take a look at the situation.
In this situation, let's save our own lives first. ”
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan appeared from behind the tree only after they left.
"Sister Lan, the current situation is quite bad. Let's go find Master and Uncle-Master."
The two decided to go back to their residence, pack up their things, and then make a decision on the next step.
When they returned to their residence, they saw Master Pingyang standing on the open space, and Shi Zelan was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes.
"Master Junior, you are finally here."
Master Pingyang looked at her, then looked at Shi Xiaoliu and said, "Your master sent a message asking you to refine more Qingxin pills."
Shi Xiaoliu said quickly: "Uncle Master, I will start refining the elixir now."
Master Pingyang turned to Shi Zelan and said, "Sister Lan, give me all the purification talismans in your hand."
Shi Zelan directly took out a small bag and gave it to Master Pingyang: "Master Junior, everything is here. I will make the talisman right now."
Before they entered the house, Master Pingyang said, "I am going to look for your master now. What do you want to say?"
Shi Xiaoliu quickly stuffed a bunch of porcelain bottles into Master Pingyang's hands and said, "Uncle Master, these are the pills I made these days. Give them to my master to use."
"Young Master, you and Master must come back safely."
"Don't be afraid, both of you. The situation this time is a bit complicated, but the sect has sent a formation master who will be able to solve the problem quickly."
When Master Pingyang left, he set up a protective barrier for them again.
After Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan entered the room for a while, they both went up to the roof at the same time, feeling uneasy.
Shi Xiaoliu concentrated on refining the elixir, while Shi Zelan focused on drawing talismans. As the sky grew darker, Taoist Pingyang had not returned yet.
The two men built a fire in the open space. They knew that someone was passing by halfway up the mountain.
The firewood fire was bright, and the two of them were meditating on the roof. Shi Zelan originally thought that under such circumstances, her practice would be as difficult as before.
But this time it was different. There was too much golden spiritual energy floating in the air, all of which kept drilling into her body. She felt the pain as her meridians expanded.
Shi Zelan couldn't help but hum a few times, waking up Shi Xiaoliu who was standing beside her.
He turned around and saw Shi Zelan was in the process of advancing, and he became more vigilant in observing the situation around him.
Shi Zelan was now feeling happy at one moment and painful at another, her whole body screaming in pain, but she knew in her heart that she had to hold on.
That night, Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan with great concern. It was not until dawn that he saw that the black substance no longer seeped out of Shi Zelan's face. He felt relieved.
Shi Zelan opened her eyes and saw Shi Xiaoliu. Seeing the joy in his eyes, she said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, I think I can sense what is happening in farther places."
Shi Xiaoliu quickly reminded: "Sister Lan, quickly retract your consciousness."
Shi Zelan stood up and smelled a foul odor. She frowned and felt her breathing was very difficult. She reached out and touched a black lump.
She immediately flew down: "Xiao Liu, I will go and clean it carefully first, and then I will talk to you."
Shi Zelan went into the room to wash up. Shi Xiaoliu performed a cleansing gesture, and the air immediately became much fresher, and he could breathe comfortably.
After a while, when Shi Zelan left the room, Shi Xiaoliu asked her with some concern: "Sister Lan, are you feeling unwell now?"
Shi Zelan shook his head, thought for a moment and said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, the protective barrier that Junior Master set up before he left probably blocked some of the prying divine senses."
Shi Xiaoliu agreed with Shi Zelan's words, thinking that Shi Zelan's rapid advancement this time must be related to her careful drawing of talismans.
Therefore, he said to Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, I will go into the room to practice, you can continue to draw talismans on the roof."
