Chapter 81
After Shi Zelan completed a cycle, she opened her eyes, her eyes full of joy.
She looked around and saw Shi Xiaoliu meditating not far away, then she looked down at the dust piled around her.
She went over and picked it up and rubbed it with two fingers. The ash was very fine and smooth. The top-grade spirit stone was indeed free of residue.
She listened to the noises around her and heard the faint sound of digging in the distance.
Shi Zelan stood up and was about to rush in that direction. As soon as she moved her feet, her figure floated forward.
Shi Zelan floated forward while adjusting his steps.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng had already dug out a pile of soil. Seeing Shi Zelan coming over, they observed her condition and nodded with satisfaction at the same time.
"Okay, it's the tenth stage of Qi Refining."
After hearing what Master Decheng said, Shi Zelan was delighted and said with a smile, "Uncle Master, I will continue to work hard."
Master Shanzheng signaled Shi Zelan to quickly carry the soil to the pile. She directly filled four baskets with soil, turned around and flew forward with the soil on their shoulders.
Shanzheng Zhenren shook his head slightly behind him: "This child forgot that she is not yet indestructible."
"Then why didn't you remind her just now?"
"We watched her suffer because of her carelessness. She can learn from her experience this time."
Master Decheng laughed when he heard what he said. Shi Zelan flew over and put down four empty baskets. He said to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng, "I'll use a trailer to haul the soil."
Master Decheng said calmly, "Okay."
After she dragged six baskets of soil away, he said to Shanzheng Zhenren: "Not bad, she knows how to adjust direction at any time."
When Shi Xiaoliu came over, Shi Zelan looked at him with great joy: "Xiaoliu, are you almost reaching the perfection of the Qi Refining Stage?"
Shi Xiaoliu quickly shook his head: "I feel it's still a little worse.
Sister Lan, I've gone to the front to meet my master and uncle, and will come back to help you move the soil. ”
He walked forward while talking. Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng had been digging for a long time and could feel the air becoming increasingly moist.
When Shi Xiaoliu came, the two were discussing what to do after they went out, and they decided to stay nearby for a few days.
Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng looked at Shi Xiaoliu's condition and both expressed their satisfaction.
"Xiao Liu, you did a great job."
"Xiao Liu, the more times like this, the more you should not be impatient. Laying the foundation more firmly will be beneficial to your foundation building."
Shi Xiaoliu turned back to move soil with Shi Zelan. He expressed his feelings: "Sister Lan, I think it will take me about ten years to build my foundation at the earliest."
Shi Zelan looked at him seriously and said, "If we have another opportunity like this one, you might be able to build your foundation in less than ten years."
“It was too fast, and I felt a little uneasy.
Sister Lan, don’t you feel this way? ”
"No.
Why are you uneasy?
Cultivation has always been guided by a master, but practice is up to the individual.
In this opportunity, our uncle and master protected us and kept us safe, and we tried our best not to hold them back along the way. ”
Shi Xiaoliu felt more comfortable after hearing Shi Zelan's frank words: "But our cultivation level has improved a little too fast."
“No, it’s just right.
When we left the sect, Xia Yu sent me a message saying that he would also be traveling abroad for a year or two, and would build a foundation when he came back. ”
Shi Xiaoliu kept moving, picked up two baskets of soil and was about to put them on the trailer, but Shi Zelan reached out to stop him.
"You can't carry too many baskets at a time. You deliver them first while I continue to load the baskets."
Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng dug an exit and stood at the entrance of the cave and looked for a while.
The mountains and fields are golden, and another autumn has arrived.
They concealed the entrance of the cave and smoothed the road. They went back and saw that Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan had blocked the retreat route tightly, so they helped to finish the job.
The four of them had a good night's rest. The next day, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng went up to dig ice crystals, while Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan hurried over to fill the newly made bamboo tubes with ice milk.
As they were on their way back after loading up, they could already feel the mountains shaking.
"Xiao Liu, Lan, you two should leave quickly."
Master Decheng called out to them, and Shi Xiaoliu shouted back, "Okay."
The two of them ran forward as hard as they could, and after they ran out of the cave, loud noises were heard from inside.
The two men turned back in panic, only to see Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng crawling out covered in mud. They turned around and waved their hands towards the cave entrance, and the cave entrance suddenly sank with the sound of a landslide.
Master Decheng reached out and picked up Shi Xiaoliu and put him on the sword, and the two of them flew directly north.
Taoist Master Shanzheng placed Shi Zelan on a cloud and chased Taoist Master Decheng northward.
After climbing one mountain after another, Master Decheng found a high peak and stopped. Master Shanzheng followed him. After looking down, they decided to stay there for a while.
Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng successively sent messages back to the sect. While waiting for the sect to reply, they cleaned the top of the mountain and set up protective stealth barriers around it.
Yun Yanzong quickly sent a message, asking them to go and check out the collapsed mountain.
Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng looked at each other and decided that Zhenren Decheng would quietly return to the sect to hand over some of the spirit stones.
Master Shanzheng went over to take a look at the situation, and the two younger ones stayed here to recuperate.
In the darkness of the night, Master Decheng left quickly, having promised that he would be back soon.
The next day, Master Shanzheng also left, leaving Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan in an uncertain mood. The two decided to make jade bracelets and jade hairpins.
Yes, when they went to get the ice milk, they also broke off a few jade pillars that looked very nice.
"Sister Lan, Master said that the top scholar exam will be held every three years. Next year when we go to the capital, we won't be able to see the excitement of the top scholar parade."
"Xiao Liu, I don't think we can go to the capital this year."
Shi Xiaoliu smiled: "That's fine, I'm used to living in the mountains too."
Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Uncle Master, take us down the mountain. We will get used to the hustle and bustle down there."
On this day, it was dark, and Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan each went into their thatched huts. Soon the lights in the huts went out, and the surroundings were very quiet.
Zhenren Decheng went back to see his master, and then the head monk came to the medicine cabinet. When he left, his steps were much lighter.
Master Decheng walked back under the cover of night. He had received news from Master Shanzheng that he could not return to his residence for the time being.
On the second day, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan saw the miniature house next to the thatched hut, and they looked at each other happily.
The wind was strong on the mountain, but inside the barrier, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan could hear the sound of trees falling, and both of them felt the urge to look for food on the mountain.
When they left the sect, they stored up a year's worth of food, but now there is not much left.
When Master Decheng came out, the two younger ones came to greet him, greeted him with concern, and quickly expressed their thoughts.
Master Decheng waved his hand, indicating that they could go out.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan went over cheering, saying they would definitely dig up some delicious food.
