Chapter 88 A little cinnabar against the red
Before Senior Brother Hao could speak, he heard someone outside the door saying, "This sister is really stupid. If we practitioners don't take the elixir, we may not be able to achieve the golden elixir in five hundred years."
The female cultivator who spoke was quite pretty, with beautiful eyes and affectionate eyes. She held a square plate in her palm, which contained two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, a bowl of rice and two empty bowls. She placed the tray on the table.
Pulling Senior Brother Hao's arm: "Senior Brother Hao, come and try my sister's cooking. These are mushrooms and bamboo shoots, a specialty of Loulan. It's hard to get them in big merchants like us. They taste delicious and crispy. You must like them."
Senior Brother Hao took two bites and praised: "These mushrooms and bamboo shoots are really good. Junior Sister Gu, you just came back from outside and haven't eaten yet. Sit down and eat together."
Gu Yuli smelled the aroma of the food, and her stomach growled with hunger. She rushed all the way back to Yuxu from Xuemangyuan. She really hadn't had a good meal, and she had been hungry for most of the day today. She was not polite.
Sit down: "Thank you, senior sister and brother, I'm starting."
The female nun who came in with the food was named Yan Ji. When she saw that the new female disciple was so indifferent, she didn't go out to avoid it. She just sat down and started eating with the bowl and chopsticks she prepared for herself. She was about to have a seizure.
"Senior sister, the food you cook is so delicious. If anyone marries you, they will be really blessed. Senior brother Hao, please introduce this beautiful senior sister to me." Gu Yuli raised her head and said with a smile.
When Yan Ji heard the compliment, and in front of her sweetheart, she was immediately elated, pursed her lips and chuckled: "This new junior sister is really sweet-tongued. My name is Yan Ji, you can just call me senior sister Yan from now on."
The surname is Yan? The surname Yan is not common, and it is the national surname of the Loulan Kingdom. Many people avoid taboos and simply change their surname. But this Senior Sister Yan has a good temperament and looks like someone from a good family. Is it possible that this infatuated
Is there any relationship between Senior Brother Hao's Yan Ji and Yan Tianxuan?
It has been almost five hundred years since the founding of Dashang, Loulan, and Xuanyuan. There are many members of the royal family and many branches. It would not be surprising if Yan Ji was really born in the Loulan royal family.
Gu Yuli called out sweetly: "Hello, Senior Sister Yan."
Yan Ji smiled and nodded gently.
"I'm new here and don't understand many things. Please take care of me, Senior Sister Yan." Gu Yuli said sweetly. She will live in Qingli Garden from now on. Having a friendly Senior Sister is much better than having one more enemy.
Yanji went to the kitchen and brought a pair of bowls and chopsticks. When she entered the room, another female nun who said she was bringing pastries also came in. The two female nuns glanced at each other but didn't say much. They entered the room together, and everyone
It is quite enjoyable to sit together and eat together.
"Senior Brother Hao, try this I made."
"Senior Brother Hao, there are also my pastries, they taste very good."
…
Gu Yuli immersed herself in picking up vegetables to eat. Tasting the delicacies on the table, she couldn't help but feel pity for Senior Brother Hao. He almost lost the right to eat by himself, which probably annoyed him to death. This was also because Senior Brother Hao had a good temper. If someone
It was spinning around her like this, and she had to kick it off.
After the meal, Yanji took out three spirit-gathering pills and gave them to Gu Yuli, and told Gu Yuli to practice well. She also said that if there was anything she didn't understand, he should ask her. Such benefits would naturally come to Gu Yuli.
He responded with a smile and told Senior Sister Yan that she was kind-hearted and beautiful.
Senior Brother Hao also smiled and said that this is how brothers and sisters should support each other. He also took out a gift, but it was an Earth-shrinking Talisman. This kind of Shrinking-Earth Talisman is a good life-saving thing. Yan Tianxuan was once in the Ancient Medicine Garden
I had used it in the past, and the ancient jade glass recognized the goods. I immediately thanked him with a smile and put it in my arms.
Another female cultivator named Fang Qingqing couldn't help but blush when she saw that both of them had given gifts. She didn't have anything on her that she could use. Seeing Yan Ji's proud look, she gritted her teeth and took off the bracelet on her wrist.
He came down and said, "Junior Sister Gu, this is the first time we meet, and Senior Sister Fang doesn't have anything to give to you. I will give you this storage bracelet."
Fang Qingqing's heart was almost bleeding. This storage bracelet also contained the elixir she had practiced for a year. Some of it was given by her family, and most of it was sent by someone from her family.
Gu Yuli smiled and pushed the storage bracelet back and said: "Senior Sister Fang, I accept your wishes." She turned to look at Hao Shujie and Yan Ji: "Senior Brother Hao, Senior Sister Yan, you are really good to me.
, I am indeed right to worship Yuxu. From now on, I ask my senior brothers and sisters to give me more guidance."
The first day of life in Qingli Garden slowly ended under the night.
After seeing off her brothers and sisters, Gu Yuli turned around and closed the door, spread out the quilt, and lay on the bed. The fatigue of the past few days swept over her, and she fell asleep soon after.
The second day.
The snow was falling heavily, and the garden turned into a silvery white world. I took a deep breath and felt the cold air piercing my lungs, causing a slight pain.
"Brother Hao, it's too early for you. Let me help you." Gu Yuli ran over to help Hao Shujie sweep away the snow. The flying snow was like goose feathers, falling from the sky and landing on the heads of the two people. They cleaned it up.
It is a small area under the locust tree. The large number of talisman seals produced this time are made of special materials and need to be processed in the open air. Especially the cinnabar used in the manufacture of talisman seals needs such heavy snowy weather to be processed.
The cinnabar naturally contains more ice and water elements, improving the success rate of the talisman seal.
The two of them scanned for a while, and Yan Ji and Fang Qingqing came. They made a steaming breakfast. The four of them didn't enter the room, so they ate on the stone table under the locust tree. After eating, Senior Brother Hao
Went to collect the materials from Master Xiao Shi.
Gu Yuli continued to sweep the snow, while Fang Qingqing took out a cloth frame made of silk and put it on the locust tree.
Yan Ji sat on the stone table, covering her chest in an exaggerated manner: "This damn weather is so cold, and it's snowing. In Loulan, it's like spring all year round, with flowers blooming everywhere, and there are countless seafood to eat."
Fang Qingqing stood on the locust tree and said sarcastically: "If you don't want to stay here, go back to your cozy home. Why are you staying here? You haven't fallen in love with our senior brother Hao."
Yanji was not angry either: "So what if I just like Senior Brother Hao. I like to be honest and upright, and I'm not afraid of you saying that. Besides, you don't like Senior Brother Hao. But, let me tell you, Senior Brother Hao will never like you, Senior Brother Hao
be mine."
Fang Qingqing was so angry that she didn't answer. She was not as free and easy as Yan Ji. Although she secretly agreed, she only dared to think secretly in her heart.
Gu Yuli swept her own snow seriously, regardless of the quarrel between the two senior sisters, so as not to cause trouble to Chi Yu.
After a while, Senior Brother Hao came back, holding a very beautiful ice crystal ball in his palm.
Fang Qingqing, Yan Ji and Gu Yuli all gathered around. They were all girls and had no resistance to such crystal clear and shiny things. They just felt very beautiful.
"Brother Hao, what is this?" Yan Ji asked.
Through Senior Brother Hao's explanation, everyone knew that this beautiful ice crystal ball was not a decorative object, but a special storage artifact, specially used to store ice element materials that were not easy to preserve. Needless to say, this ice element material was naturally
It's what you use to prepare cinnabar.
Master Xiao Shi likes to make every talisman and seal perfect, and the importance of materials is self-evident.
If he hadn't been too busy and trusted Hao Shujie, he wouldn't have handed over this precious ice element material to them.
Fang Qingqing and Yan Ji both have the qualifications of dual spirit roots, earth and fire, and are not suitable for processing this ice element material. Senior Brother Hao asked them to continue processing the monster fur that they had not finished yesterday. They did not want to argue about this. Naturally.
It's because he knows that he doesn't have this ability, and if he does well, it's fine. If he fails, he will make a fool of himself in front of Senior Brother Hao and appear incompetent.
Now only Hao Shujie and Gu Yuli were left. Gu Yuli had just started, but she was at the sixth level of Qi Refining. She had only just mastered processing these talisman and seal materials, and it was not convenient for Hao Shujie to arrange for her to do it.
"Junior sister Gu, you can work with them to process the animal skins." Hao Shujie decided to prepare the ice element cinnabar material by himself. In fact, he was not particularly suitable. Ice is a kind of water, which conflicts with fire, and he is a double
Most of the spiritual roots are of fire attribute.
Gu Yuli saw Hao Shujie's worry, and she tried to ask: "Brother Hao, is this ice-based cinnabar very difficult to prepare?"
Hao Shujie said: "It's not very difficult, but this cinnabar with ice attribute is very active. If it is mixed by a cultivator who is incompatible with it, it will easily get out of control and cause the preparation to fail. However, it doesn't matter. I have mixed water attribute before.
The success rate is quite high.”
Gu Yuli was eager to try: "Brother Hao, I am a pure water single spirit root, let me try it." She liked making talisman seals very much, and she even thought that a small picture, with the addition of spiritual materials, would be perfect.
It can exert great power and is very interesting, and the patterns on the talisman are mysterious and beautiful to her.
Fang Qingqing and Yan Ji turned to look at Gu Yuli at the same time, with expressions of surprise on their faces. They did not expect that this ordinary junior sister in front of them was actually a pure single spiritual root. Such a qualification cannot be called a genius.
Too bad, suddenly, the look in Gu Yuli's eyes showed a hint of jealousy.
Hao Shujie didn't show any surprise, he just nodded with a warm smile.
The ice crystal ball was suspended in the air, emitting a faint light. Gu Yuli followed the method described by Hao Shujie and circulated the spiritual energy in the inner palace to his fingertips. After a while, transparent water droplets the size of rice grains appeared on his fingertips. This was pure
It is condensed with the essence of water element.
Yan Ji and Fang Qingqing both stopped what they were doing and stared at Gu Yuli's movements without blinking.
Gu Yuli frowned slightly, feeling a little nervous. She slowly stretched her right hand to the side of the ice crystal ball. At first, there was no reaction at all. She couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and wanted to hold the ice crystal ball directly in her palm.
Hao Shujie comforted him: "Don't be anxious, just calm down and feel the inside of the ice crystal ball carefully."
Sure enough, Gu Yuli calmed down her mind. She closed her eyes, turned off all five senses, and focused only on the Yuanli seeds in her inner palace. The buds from the Yuanli seeds swayed gently, seeming to be responding to her.
The inner palace is like a starry sky, with countless water elements gathering into a brilliance the size of a grain of rice, flowing in the void.
She carefully experienced the changes in each water element. At this time, she discovered that the water essence condensed on her fingertips was constantly changing. The water element in these veins did not stop for a moment, going over and over again, flowing throughout the body.
, some water elements are more lively, while others are lazy and timid. This feeling is very strange.
No wonder she couldn't guide the ice material in the ice crystal ball through the water essence at her fingertips at first.
She was completely immersed in the world of elements. When she felt the water essence on her fingertips becoming active, she tried again to call out the ice material from the ice crystal ball. Everything in the world has spirituality, even grass and stones.
in this way.
This is the first time Gu Yuli has come into contact with such a pure ice element, and the ice element is not what she expected, showing complete inertia.
After trying for a long time, she felt the ice material in the ice crystal ball moving outward little by little.
"Wow, what beautiful snowflakes."
Yan Ji's exclamation came to her ears, and Gu Yuli was overjoyed: "It's done." She opened her eyes and saw a hexagonal snowflake appearing in the palm of her right hand. It was crystal white and sparkling charmingly.
