The old man in gray looked at the jade slips and ancient books on the table and just glanced at them. His face was calm and expressionless.
"All of these are free, come on over!"
He looked at Li Yan.
Li Yan took a step forward and stood there respectfully. The old man in gray picked up a jade slip that was flashing a faint green light. With his other hand, he put his fingers together like a sword and slid quickly across the jade slip. Then a green light came out of the slip and shot towards Li Yan's forehead.
Li Yan only felt a green light in front of his eyes rapidly enlarged, and before he could react, the green light had shot into his forehead.
The next moment, he felt a chill on his forehead, and then it returned to normal. He also knew that it was Master Gu who was leaving the mark.
So, Li Yan quickly used his consciousness to look inward, and saw a green dot flashing in the corner of his sea of consciousness. Before he could withdraw his consciousness, he felt a chill again, and then he saw another flashing green dot in his sea of consciousness...
After just a moment, Li Yan's consciousness withdrew from his sea of consciousness and saw that the old man in gray had stopped his movements and was looking at him.
“Okay, the jade slips and ancient books you want are sealed in your sea of consciousness. If you need them, you can just touch the green dot with your consciousness to get some simple information.
If you want to see the details inside, just use your spiritual sense to pierce the green dot. Okay, you two can go now. I need to rest."
The gray-robed old man gave them a few simple introductions before sending them away. At the same time, he waved his sleeves, and the jade slips and ancient books on the table disappeared without a trace.
Then he yawned, without even looking at the two of them, and fell asleep on the table.
Li Wuyi and Li Yan looked at each other, bowed to the old man in gray lying on the table, and then retreated from the bamboo house.
As soon as the two of them left the small bamboo house, the door closed automatically with a slight sound. Li Wuyi did not delay and immediately released the flying magic weapon, and the two of them jumped up.
After a while, the two landed in front of Li Yan's bamboo courtyard again. What surprised Li Yan was that there were still two people standing at the gate. They were people he didn't know, or to be exact, two women.
Both women were tall. One was dressed in red and looked to be in her early twenties. She had a red gourd hanging around her waist. She had a hot and plump figure and towering breasts.
The woman in red was dressed quite boldly, with a large area of white exposed under her white neck, with faint cleavage visible. The hem of her red skirt only reached her calves, revealing a smooth, white area above her boots.
There was a variety of charm between her lips and eyebrows, and her pair of phoenix eyes kept moving, looking at Li Yan and the other person who had just landed with a smile.
The other girl was dressed in white, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with skin as white as porcelain and a smooth texture. The most unforgettable thing about this girl was her delicate cheeks.
Her face had a sculptural three-dimensional quality, but the lines were soft and rounded, her lips were slightly closed, and above her nose was a pair of thick eyebrows. Her calm eyes seemed to be as deep as the ocean.
Her black hair was tied into a ponytail and fell down her back. She had a slender and upright figure. Her white waisted dress swayed in the wind, revealing her tight and straight legs from time to time.
Her beauty is different from that of the girl in red. The girl in red has a soft and charming beauty, just like a ripe peach; while the girl in white has a soft beauty with a hint of firmness, tending towards a neutral and alternative beauty.
She exuded a sense of nobility and arrogance in her bones. She seemed to be a little taller than the girl in red, but her expression gave people a feeling of indifference. At this moment, her eyes were looking indifferently at Li Wuyi and Li Yan.
When Li Yan saw the two people, he was stunned. He didn't know what the two fairy-like women in the painting were doing standing in front of his gate. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Wuyi.
Li Wuyi was looking at the two men with some embarrassment at this moment. When he was flying in the sky just now, he had already discovered the two men with his spiritual sense. He knew that they must have discovered him as well, so he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
Seeing Li Yan looking at him inquiringly, he could only cough dryly.
“Hehehe… Junior Brother, these two are Junior Sister Li Changting and Junior Sister Zhao Min from Buli Peak.”
He pointed at the girl in red and the girl in white respectively and introduced them to Li Yan.
Li Yan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the two of them.
"Newcomer Li Yan meets Senior Sister Li and Senior Sister Zhao!"
After hearing this, the girl in red raised her delicate hand to cover her mouth, and then she started to giggle.
"So you're the one who cultivated into a fragmented poisonous body. You look pretty good, don't you? But you need to work hard on your cultivation, hahaha..."
The girl in white remained calm and indifferent, and did not utter a word.
Li Yan could feel a faint sense of pressure from these two people. He guessed that they were holding back. Since they were on equal terms with Li Wuyi's senior brother and sister, they must be masters in the Foundation Establishment Stage. This made him speechless.
The people he met these days were all people with high cultivation. Even the cultivator named Yu from Lingchong Peak and his seventh senior brother were at the high level of Qi Condensation Stage, while he himself had just entered the second level of Qi Condensation Stage.
However, why are all the immortal women like fairies in paintings? The few he has seen, including several female disciples in the menial department, although not all of them are as beautiful as fairies, each of them has a lively and elegant temperament.
The red-clothed woman was so charming and seductive when she spoke that Li Yan's face turned red and his heart beat fast when he heard her speak. As for the white-clothed woman, she was comparable to the cold and aloof Sixth Senior Sister. They were both tall and slender, and looked like they didn't want strangers to approach them.
“Brother Wuyi, I wanted to come over to drink with you a few days ago, but my little darling is at a critical juncture in his advancement.
When I came out today, I happened to run into Junior Sister Zhao in the peak, so I came here with her. I looked for you but you were not in the courtyard. Later, I met Junior Brother Daqiao and realized that you should have come here. Junior Sister Zhao and I have been waiting here for a while. "
Li Changting in red had a pair of phoenix eyes that flickered as she spoke in a charming voice. As she spoke, she lightly stroked her hair with one hand, and her white chest swayed. Li Yan immediately felt his heartbeat quicken, and he quickly lowered his head, seeming a little at a loss.
Li Wuyi shook his head, as if he couldn't see the charm.
"Junior Sister Li, I am busy today. I have to take Junior Brother to handle other matters right away."
"Oh, really? Daqiao said that he had already taken Junior Brother Li to familiarize himself with the situation here yesterday. Today, it seems that he only chose martial arts and immortal arts. Where did you two come from?"
Li Changting looked at Li Wuyi with a half-smile in his phoenix eyes.
Li Wuyi was stunned, and immediately blamed his seventh junior brother in his heart. After being exposed, he couldn't help but blush and said quickly.
"Oh, Junior Sister Li is not my senior brother. I won't agree. But whether it's reciting poems or drinking with you, I'm willing to admit defeat. And... and your wine is not easy to refine. It's such a pity to drink it so easily!!"
He cleared his throat, a reluctant expression on his face, and pointed to the red gourd on Li Changting's waist as he spoke.
"Hey, Senior Brother Wuyi, I couldn't come up with a good follow-up to your last 'The small bridge is still sad about the rain', how come you are not my opponent? Besides, drinking with a confidant is a pleasure. Although this wine is made with my dear and precious Wind Listening Gu, Blood Melting Gu, Bee Ant Gu and a pair of Intestine King Gu, but..."
"Senior Sister Li, Senior Brother Wuyi, you guys take your time to chat. I'm going to go back first. When you go back later, just call me!"
Before the two men finished speaking, a cold voice came over. It was the girl in white who had been silent all the time. It was obvious that the girl didn't want to continue listening to their conversation, so she said such a nonsensical sentence.
This sentence left Li Yan confused, but the two of them obviously understood and nodded to Zhao Min in white.
After seeing the two of them nod, the girl in white tapped the ground with her toes and shot into the distance like an arrow, stirring up a gust of wind and waves. She didn't even look at Li Yan as she left.
Li Yan only felt a gust of wind and waves rising, and the surrounding bamboo leaves swayed continuously. She clearly looked like she was not worldly, but she made such a noise when she left. He didn't know if she was in a hurry or had other reasons.
Li Yan was secretly shocked. He could not believe that a woman's legs could produce such explosive and brutal force.
The next moment, he couldn't help but look at the red gourd on Li Changting's waist, and thought of what Li Changting said before he was interrupted by the girl in white. It seemed that there was a bunch of wine made from poisonous insects in that gourd.
Li Changting seemed to sense that Li Yan was looking at her. She turned her head from the direction where the girl in white disappeared and smiled brightly.
"Li... Junior Brother Li Yan, right? He's not very old, is he also an expert in drinking?"
Although Li Yan heard her say that the wine she made was made from various poisonous insects, many hunters in his hometown village also often made their own wine, using the body organs of various monsters, big and small, in the mountains.
It’s not that he was that scared. What was there to be afraid of after being soaked in alcohol
The people of Daqingshan are open-minded. Although he is young, he drinks occasionally. But he didn't know how to answer at this time. At this moment, Li Wuyi's voice rang in his ears.
He quickly looked up, but saw that Li Wuyi was still looking in the direction where the girl in white left, and was not looking at him. But from his direction, the skin around Li Wuyi's ears looked a little blue.
"Junior brother, this is the sound transmission method. Junior sister Li's wine is made from various poisonous insects. Although it has the effect of improving magic power, but... But this brewing method is very different from ordinary medicinal wine.
Judging from its appearance, I think you won't be able to drink it after just one look at it. Not to mention the color of the wine, it is colorful, and most importantly, there is a layer of fine poisonous insects floating on the wine.
Some are completely dead, some are still half dead, and after being poured into the wine glass, some are still struggling to float in the glass...
Some Gu worms may still have half of the bodies of other Gu worms in their mouths, and some translucent Gu worms can even see other Gu worms crawling in their stomachs..."
When Li Yan heard this, he felt a tingling sensation in his throat, as if countless small insects were crawling through it. His stomach was churning and twitching. He could no longer listen to what Li Wuyi said next. He looked palely at Li Changting, who was looking at him with a half-smile on his face.
"Li... Senior Sister Li, I am a new disciple and I still have a lot of lessons to practice, so I won't bother you two anymore."
After saying that, without waiting for the two to reply, he took out his badge and waved it towards the gate, then disappeared in a flash. The next moment, the white mist at the gate surged violently again, instantly covering the entire courtyard.
"Hehe, hehe" a silver bell-like laughter sounded, and then Li Changting looked at Li Wuyi with a dreamy smile.
"Brother Wuyi, it seems that you said something. This junior fellow is really interesting. However, I came here to see you. Not everyone can drink my wine.
Well, do you want to go to the bamboo forest in the back mountain to talk about the past and present and drink wine to cheer yourself up? Or should we go to your courtyard to drink and sing poems? I have learned a lot of poems from my aunt recently, so it will be difficult for you to beat me. "
Li Wuyi's face turned bitter, but he knew that standing here was not a good thing. As long as he met Li Changting, it would be even more difficult to get rid of this girl.
He made up his mind that he would hand over the sect affairs to his fourth junior sister for a period of time tomorrow and practice hard in seclusion.
Sighing, Li Wuzhi had to force a smile.
"Junior Sister Li, let's go to my courtyard. I still have two jars of fine wine that Master gave me last time. They taste very good, and one of them even has the flavor of pear blossom."
"Really? I can try it, but those wines are usually just to satisfy your appetite and have no effect on improving your cultivation. How about this, one sip of pear blossom wine and one sip of my wine..."
Li Wuyi's sunny and handsome face was covered with black lines. Then, the two of them flew away while talking, but Li Wuyi's escape light seemed weak and dim.
Li Yan rushed into the yard and quickly shook the token in his hand to activate the defense of the formation, as if countless red insects were about to follow him in.
After entering the house, he rested for a while before putting aside those disgusting thoughts one by one.
He stretched out his hand and patted the storage bag. A white light flashed and a small porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. This was the fasting pill that the eldest senior brother gave him today. He wanted to know how long he could go without eating after taking this thing.
After pulling out the cork, a faint herbal scent wafted out. I turned the bottle over and tapped it lightly in my palm. Then a light purple pill the size of a soybean appeared in my palm.
After Li Yan put away the small porcelain bottle, he gently picked up the lavender pill with two fingers, then looked at it towards the sunlight.
The pill is translucent in the light, with a smooth and round surface, resembling a tiny purple potato particle.
After looking at it for a while, I felt that apart from its attractive luster, there was nothing special about it.
"Such a small pill can make a person feel hungry for many days?"
Li Yan was thinking about the function of the fasting pill in his mind while putting the pill into his mouth. He immediately felt a slight woody taste on the tip of his tongue, which turned into a hot stream rushing into his stomach the next moment.
Then, a feeling of fullness instantly filled his stomach, causing him to burp involuntarily. He no longer felt hungry at all.
"It is indeed a thing from the immortals. This little thing is so magical. It seems that... I should ask the servants in front to send less food."
Li Yan felt the situation in his stomach and couldn't help but mutter to himself. Until this moment, he still hadn't truly appreciated the power of the Bigu Pill.
In the next few days, he finally understood the effect of the Bigu Pill. During these days, he continued to make up for his knowledge of cultivating immortals. He sat cross-legged and calmed his mind, opened the ancient books in his sea of consciousness and read them in detail. He would sleep when he was tired, and continue reading the ancient books when he woke up...
After eight or nine days, he had finished reading several ancient books, but he still didn't feel hungry.
Gradually, he put the matter behind him, and took another pill when he was hungry. Later, Li Yan realized that the three pills of Bigu Pill per month were a good number.
After a period of time, Li Yan's main energy has really been focused on cultivation.
