Xu Chunniang pushed the door open and entered the room. Xiaobai looked over and said, "Sister, is that person gone?"
"Don't worry, he's gone, and unless something unexpected happens, he won't come to see us again."
Hearing this, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little curious.
He had been dealing with Fu Heng a lot in the past few days and knew how difficult he was. How did his sister send him away and ensure that he would never come again
"Sister, what did you say to him?"
"Nothing, I just asked him to borrow some fairy crystals, but when he heard that I wanted to borrow fairy crystals, his face changed immediately and he ran away very fast."
"Is this actually possible?"
Xiaobai was surprised. Why didn't he think of such a good method
Xu Chunniang smiled and nodded, "Fu Heng approached you and me for no reason, and all he wanted was benefits. I just need to let him know that we don't have what he needs, and he will leave naturally."
Xiaobai nodded thoughtfully. Next time he met such a person, he knew how to deal with it.
"Sister, how did you feel about your visit to Fuyu City this time? Is Fuyu City big? Are there many immortals?"
“The Fuyu City is very large and has many people. The entire Fuyu City and the city defense formation are floating in the air, which is a very unique view.
Moreover, the fairy air in Fuyu City is several times richer than that in Zhangwei Mountain, and it is not cold during the day. If we have the chance in the future, we will move to Fuyu City."
"Really?"
There was anticipation in Xiaobai's eyes. He was afraid of the cold, so it would be great if he had the chance to leave Zhangwei Mountain.
But when he thought of the debts they both had, he became hesitant again.
"But Chang Xianyou once said that a big city like Fuyu City has very strict management. If you don't have a house in the city, the entrance fee alone will be a huge expense."
"It doesn't matter. I have found a way to earn immortal crystals. After some time, when the immortal energy in my body is restored, I will go to Fuyu City to earn immortal crystals."
"Then I'll go too!"
Xiaobai was eager to try, he also wanted to earn fairy crystals through his own efforts.
"If you go to Fuyu City, won't there be no one to take care of the newly planted fairy grass outside? Although there are only two frost plants planted now, I will definitely plant more in the future."
Xu Chunniang plans to make money through fighting, but she doesn't plan to tell Xiaobai about this so as not to worry him.
Let’s talk about it after I earn enough immortal crystals in the future.
Xiao Bai looked embarrassed. "Yes, if I go to Fuyu City, what should I do with those immortal herbs? No, no, it seems that I can't go to Fuyu City for the time being."
"It's okay. You can still earn immortal crystals by taking care of the immortal grass at home. Just be careful not to freeze yourself."
"Don't worry, sister. I know my limits."
The two chatted for a while and then went back to their own business. Xiaobai was busy taking care of the two frost plants in the field, while Xu Chunniang wrapped herself in a fur coat and meditated outside the stone house.
With fur clothes to keep warm, one can stay outside for three hours without getting frostbite. Moreover, one only needs to go back to the house to rest for an hour before continuing to practice. The efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy has been greatly improved.
Xu Chunniang meditated for eight days in a row, and the spiritual energy in her body recovered by one third.
The seeds of frost grass have not yet sprouted.
Xiaobai is not in a hurry. The first month after the frost grass is planted is the germination period. As long as it can germinate successfully within the next twenty days, the frost grass will be considered alive.
When the day arrived as agreed with Mr. Gong to go up the mountain to cut down snow-capped pine, Xu Chunniang stopped meditating and waited quietly in the stone house for Mr. Gong's arrival.
Mr. Gong arrived very early. Before the hour of dawn, he appeared outside the stone house and knocked on the door.
"I'm leaving."
Xu Chunniang understood what was said, stood up, pushed the door open, and walked up the mountain with Mr. Gong.
Old Gong was taking her on a wide mountain path, and other people going up the mountain could be seen from time to time.
Mr. Gong glanced at it casually and explained calmly.
“People who go up the mountain at this time are all going for the snow-covered pines. The fog on the mountain becomes thinner only in the middle and end of each month, and it usually does not last more than two days each time.
The road I am taking you on today is relatively flat, but the journey is much longer."
Xu Chunniang wrote down everything that Mr. Gong said. For people who had lived in Zhangwei Mountain for a long time, these were common sense, but for her, they were very important.
It took them twice as long to climb the mountain as last time. After finding a new isolated cliff, the two began to work.
There are many isolated cliffs like this one covered with snow-capped pine trees near Zhangwei Mountain. However, more people visit the lower cliffs, while the higher ones are rarely visited.
As a terrestrial immortal, Mr. Gong's cultivation is much stronger than other immortals living in Zhangwei Mountain, and he can often go higher.
Xu Chunniang was just a human immortal who had just ascended to heaven, but she was able to keep up with him. This was also the biggest reason why Gong Laogao took a look at her and was willing to promote her.
When they reached the isolated cliff, they each found their targets and got busy.
The second time Xu Chunniang cut down the Centella asiatica, she was much more skilled than the first time, with great improvement in both strength and angle.
Old Gong cut down a Centella cedar tree that was nearly two hundred years old. After putting it away, he subconsciously glanced at Xu Chunniang.
She chose a tree that was just over a hundred years old and had already cut half of its branches off.
The progress is quite fast.
Mr. Gong withdrew his gaze, walked towards another Centella asiatica that he had long set his eyes on, and continued to work.
The isolated cliff was very large, and there were many snow-capped pines growing on it. However, at noon on the second day, Mr. Gong discovered that the wind around him began to become humid, so he immediately called a halt.
"It's starting to get foggy in the mountains. Stop now. We have to get down the mountain."
Xu Chunniang put away the quarrying chisel and followed behind Old Gong, flying towards the main peak of Zhangwei Mountain opposite.
Just as I flew over and hadn't yet gained my footing, I saw the clear scene in the distance begin to become blurry.
They are at a higher altitude, so the fog appears relatively earlier.
However, Mr. Gong had stayed in Zhangwei Mountain for hundreds of years and was very familiar with most of the changes in the mountain. The moment he discovered the fog, he made a timely decision and took Xu Chunniang down the mountain, so they were finally not trapped on the mountain.
Other people who had gone up the mountain to cut down snow-covered pines gradually noticed the changes in the mountain and began to go down the mountain one after another.
Those who were unlucky fell behind and were trapped in thick fog, and screams were heard from time to time.
"Oh no, there's a fog beast!"
Hearing the screams coming from behind, the expressions of the people who were going down the mountain immediately changed and they quickened their pace.
Mountain fog is a natural barrier for fog beasts. With fog as cover, fog beasts are invincible.
After being trapped in thick fog, you will encounter fog beasts. If you are lucky, you may be injured or escape.
If you are unlucky, you may even die in the mouth of the fog beast.
