He turned to look at Lao Dao with some doubts. Li Xiao was puzzled. The formation was not at his home, so why should he go outside to set up the formation?

"What's inappropriate?"

Seeing Li Xiao's confused eyes, the old Taoist explained: "Master, although this smelting formation is only a low-level formation, it is only absorbing the spiritual energy in the air to ignite the flame and smelt the minerals."

"As the formation absorbs spiritual energy, it will inevitably stir up the spiritual energy surge, and it will easily attract the jealousy of others, especially in an environment where spiritual energy is scarce, so..."

"Then where should we set up the formation?" Li Xiao was a little confused. Even if he set up the formation elsewhere, wouldn't it attract attention?

Just when everyone was silent, thinking about where to set up the formation, Ming Yue seemed to suddenly think of something, her eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Ah~ Master, we can go to Xiao Jin Xiaoyin's nest to set up the formation.

The spiritual energy there is relatively rich and should be able to support the operation of the smelting array!"

"In the den of the gold and silver python? How big a place can that be?" Li Xiao felt that this was a bad idea. When he went to the python's den, except for the children in the temple, who else could stand up straight? And he had to go and take the initiative.

If you can control the casting of a gold shovel, is it possible that you have to do it while lying on your hands and knees?

"No, Master, Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin's nest can lead to the underground cave. They should be able to set up formations there, and absorb the underground spiritual energy, and there should be no strange phenomena." Mingyue seemed to be familiar with the environment there, and immediately

said.

The cave? Where was the dragon vein at that time? Hearing Mingyue's words, Li Xiao's first reaction was the cave where the dragon vein was at that time, but how could the cave of the gold and silver python be dug there? And how could Mingyue know?

"Master, this should be a good idea. Why don't you go and see the cave first?" The old Taoist suddenly interjected.

Li Xiao nodded subconsciously, then turned to Mingyue and asked: "How do you know this? Have you ever entered the cave from the gold and silver python?"

"Master, it's like this. In fact, a few days ago, I tried to refine an elixir. I didn't know if it was successful, so I took it to Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin to test the elixir. Later, the elixir seemed to be right.

The little gold and silver were very useful, and then they took me into the cave..." Mingyue said weakly.

"Um~ You're testing the medicine with the gold and silver python? Aren't there calves and lambs? Why do you choose them to test the medicine?" After hearing Mingyue's explanation, Li Xiao suddenly had a dark look on his face.

"The lambs and calves that were used, but took the elixir, all died, so..." Mingyue said in a low voice, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Aren't you afraid of eating the gold and silver python to death? Forget it this time, don't be so messy next time!" Li Xiao said something, then turned to Qingfeng and said: "Let's go, Qingfeng, come with us to see it now

Look at the cave, and if possible, just set up the formation."

After saying that, Li Xiao took Lao Dao, Baihua and Qingfeng to the rockery.

When they arrived at the rockery, Li Xiao bent down and walked into the cave without summoning the gold and silver python.

The nearly one-meter-high cave was extremely dark. Only the faint light coming from the entrance of the cave brought a glimmer of light. But after turning a corner in the cave, there was no light. Of course, the four people who entered the cave

It has no impact either.

The stone cave winds all the way down, and the surrounding stone walls are extremely smooth. The further you go down, the more humid the environment becomes, and the height of the cave ceiling becomes wider and wider. Until Li Xiao can stand up, and after walking for a short time, he

Entered the cave.

At this time, the gold and silver python was not far from the entrance of the cave. The snakes were coiled on the left and right sides, looking at each other from a distance. When they saw someone entering, they suddenly raised their heads high, as if they were on guard.

After seeing that it was Li Xiao, the gold and silver pythons instantly became quiet, and all swam to his side, spitting their forked tongues, conveying a joyful emotion.

Looking at the gold and silver python, which was now as thick as a bucket and nearly twenty meters long, Li Xiao couldn't help but smile and said, "You two are quite leisurely. We haven't seen each other for a few days and you have grown up so much."

After reaching out and touching the huge head of the gold and silver python, Li Xiao said: "Stay well, we have other things to do!" After that, after throwing a few Dao coins to each of them, he walked towards the cave.

As they walked around, Baihua and Lao Dao couldn't help but look around the cave, while Qingfeng also looked at it seriously. Only Li Xiao looked at nothing.

Until they reached the stone platform where the dragon veins were nurtured, Baihua and Lao Dao stopped almost at the same time and said, "Master, this is a pretty good place. We should be able to set up formations."

Hearing their words in unison, Li Xiao nodded, then turned to look at Qingfeng and said, "Qingfeng, what do you think?"

"It's okay here. The aura seems to be more active than elsewhere, so it's very suitable for setting up a formation." Qingfeng nodded and said.

"Then let's stay here. Let's start setting up the formation first. I'll get the gold." After saying that, Li Xiao took out all the fire crystals and handed them to Qingfeng. Then he turned back to Shi Shi alone.

go in the direction.

When he came to the gold and silver pythons, Li Xiao thought for a while and said to them: "Go back to the cave entrance and guard it in a while. Don't let anyone get close to the rockery. Do you understand?"

After seeing the gold and silver pythons nodding in unison, Li Xiao walked into the corridor, and the gold and silver pythons also climbed into the corridor.

After leaving the cave under the rockery, Li Xiao walked straight towards the bamboo building.

As soon as he walked into the bamboo building, he was stunned by the sight in front of him. The room was filled with glittering gold, and nine carrot babies were sitting on the ground. They moved all the gold bricks into the living room and used them as building blocks.

piled up haphazardly.

"Uh~ You prodigal kids, those are gold bricks, not building blocks!" Li Xiao looked dark and shouted immediately.

The shouts echoed in the bamboo building. The nine carrot babies stopped moving their hands and turned their heads almost at the same time. When they saw that Li Xiao was coming back, they all dropped the gold bricks in their hands, stood up and rushed towards Li Xiao.

Howl.

"Papa~ you're back! Where are our gifts?" the nine carrot babies shouted in unison, and then they saw nine little hands reaching out to Li Xiao neatly.

With a dark look on his face, Li Xiao took out nine identical plush toys from the space, handed them to the nine carrot babies, and said: "Go and put the toys away, and then help me move the gold to the rockery.

"

"Oh!" they all responded, and then the nine carrot babies ran up to the second floor holding their stuffed toys, and soon ran down empty-handed.

Without waiting for Li Xiao's instructions, the nine carrot babies scrambled to grab the gold bricks on the ground, and then walked out of the bamboo building carrying two or three gold bricks without anyone.

Seeing this, Li Xiao shook his head, followed immediately, and said, "We have to move them into Xiaojin's cave!"

"Ah~! Can you not go in?" Upon hearing that they were entering Xiaojin's cave, Yiying Carrot Boy immediately stopped and looked at Li Xiao with a look of fear on his face.

"What are you afraid of? Xiaojin is very well-behaved when I'm here, and there are things you don't know about there!" Li Xiao said with a smile.

It seemed that they were really attracted by the unknown things. After a brief hesitation, the carrot kids agreed in unison and then headed towards the rockery again.

Just when they reached the entrance of the rockery, the carrot kids all stopped and turned to look at Li Xiao, asking him to go in first.

Seeing the look of fear and hope, Li Xiao couldn't help but smile, then bent down and walked into the cave, and then the carrot babies followed closely.

When they met the gold and silver snake in the spacious corridor, the carrot children followed Li Xiao closely, leaning their bodies against the stone wall on the other side, and walked forward cautiously, while their eyes were fixed on the snake coil.

The gold and silver pythons seemed to be afraid that they would suddenly burst out and swallow him.

However, the gold and silver python did not move at all, allowing Li Xiao to lead the carrot babies into the depths of the corridor.

It wasn't until they entered the cave that the carrot babies all took a long breath and finally felt relieved. Then their eyes were attracted by the colorful brilliance in the cave. They stopped one after another and looked around the cave curiously.

"Okay, stop looking. Send the gold to the center of the cave first, and then you can stay here for a while." Li Xiao said, and then walked towards the stone platform in the center of the cave.

"Only for a short while? But we want to play for a longer time..." Seeing Li Xiao walking away, the carrot kids hurriedly followed, saying somewhat reluctantly.

"Not today, you can play by yourself in the future, and Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin will not make things difficult for you." Li Xiao turned around and said while walking.

When he came to the stone platform, he saw Qingfeng's small body lying on the stone platform, holding a carving knife in his hand and carving some weird symbols on the stone platform. Li Xiao didn't bother him.

Then he turned around and signaled Carrot Boy to put down the gold.

After all the gold was piled not far from the stone platform, Li Xiao took the carrot kids to the distance and said, "You can go and play for a while, but don't go to the stone platform. Is that true?"

"Got it!" the carrot kids responded in unison.

"Well, let's go. Remember to go outside in a while." After saying that, Li Xiao thought for a while and said to Shen Xiaomei: "Little sister, go out in a while and tell Mingyue that no one is allowed to enter the inner courtyard today and go and close the mountain gate.

."

"Yeah, little sister, I'll be there soon." Shen Xiaomei promised.

Afterwards, the carrot kids ran away to play, while Li Xiao returned to the stone platform, sat directly on the gold, and watched boredly as Qingfeng carved symbols there.

After playing in the cave for a while, under the urging of Shen Xiaomei, the carrot babies walked out of the cave.

As soon as Shen Xiaomei came out of the cave, she left her immediate brothers behind and went to Mingyue's residence. After telling Mingyue what Li Xiao had said, she returned to the bamboo house.
