Turn a beast into a god

Bixia Mountains, Bixia Villa.

"Ah..." Qiao Bang was extremely contented. He was lying in a wooden bathtub at the moment, enjoying the third medicinal bath that Cui Quji had prepared for him.This time I felt very good. I didn’t feel much in the first two medicated baths. It may be that my body has become extremely tough. I got into the tub for the first two times and there was no response. I didn’t feel anything other than the high temperature of the water. Unlike this time in the tub The mixture of drugs seeped into the skin, causing Qiao Bang to groan.

This bathroom seems to be owned by an owner. From the combs, brushes, hairpins, rouge, gouache, and a series of cosmetic items displayed around it, it can be analyzed that it must be used by a woman frequently.Recalling the experience of four maids surrounding him and planning to wipe his body in the medicinal bath for the first time, Qiao Bang felt so ashamed, and blasted all the maids out of the bath room under a burst of crying, and successfully attracted Cui Quji. Attention, I come to the bath room to express my condolences.

How should I put it, every time Qiao Bang saw Cui Quji alone, he seemed to be either lying down or soaking, often naked, and had no serious contact with him, so that when he saw Cui Quji's photo that was not destroyed by time, His face and hearing Cui Quji's soft and beautiful voice made him feel uncomfortable.

You said why Qiaobang was in Bixia Mountain Villa, this is a long story, when Xu Ruoyun forged the Jialuo Shengyao boots, Qiaobang rushed over eagerly to see what is so special about the artificial soldier spirit place, and then...successfully sprained his foot again.

Qiao Bang, who fell to the ground and covered his feet, did not make a sound, but was still seen by Xu Ruoyun, who was relaxed. No matter how Qiao Bang explained Xu Ruoyun, he blamed himself for being too focused and failed to see Qiao Bang's injury. After tossing Qiaobang out of Shimo Mountain, he was escorted by the army to Bixia Mountain Villa. He happened to bump into Cui Quji who came back at night and his four disciples, Li Ruitao, Li Ruiming, Li Ruilin, and Li Ruifeng.

In any case, I was very happy to leave Qiaobang from Shimoshan. After listening to the sound of Duang Duang for a few days, my brain was always buzzing.

I haven't seen it for a while. The spiritual plants on Bixia Mountain are all over the mountains. Even beside the stepping stones, there are many unknown spiritual plants growing. The surrounding world's spiritual energy is drawn by the spiritual plants. It's quite different, Qiao Bang doesn't need to actively urge the beast to absorb the spell or tap the Cang Jue, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will come naturally.

Thinking wildly, Qiao Bangzi stood up from the tub, his hands firmly supported the edge of the tub, he lifted his legs and toes to hook the outer edge of the tub and turned over, a gust of cool wind blew his face, Qiao Bang slapped Ji Ling hurriedly picked up a towel to wipe the wet skin, hurriedly put on the underwear that had been taken out from the space storage artifact, covered himself tightly, and walked out the door, only to see Lu Xu holding his forehead with one hand Lei was sitting on a stone bench not far away, while Hong Tianying and Luo Xiaotao were sitting on the other side.

Lu Xulei looked quite tired, but Hong Tianying was full of energy, and Luo Xiaotao seemed to be very excited, their hands overlapped and rubbed together, very greasy.

"Grandpa Lu! Master! Sister Xiaotao!"

"It's not big or small, call it Master!" Hong Tianying got excited immediately when she heard Qiao Bang's call, and yelled directly.

"Oh, it's okay, I like to be called sister by Xiaobang, don't scare the child." Luo Xiaotao immediately gave Hong Tianying a look, took the hand that was being pulled away, and rubbed her stomach.

"Yes, yes, I'm paying attention." Hong Tianying also reacted, and immediately lowered her voice.

"Xiao Bang, come here." Lu Xulei waved his hand, motioning Qiao Bang to approach.

Qiao Bang walked over anxiously, not understanding why the three of them were guarding his door. It was already early morning, and he had been soaking intermittently all night.

"But something went wrong with the beast control?" Lu Xulei grasped Qiao Bang's shoulder with one hand, and the rough skin seemed to feel its texture through the clothes.

"No, no, I didn't concentrate when I was practicing a body technique, and I sprained my foot accidentally, and I'm fine now." For some reason, Lu Xulei's gaze was like a knife blade, and it made him feel a little nervous when he fell on Qiao Bang. At a loss, he turned sideways and spoke softly.

"Everything should be done step by step, and daily practice should not be underestimated. Fortunately, you are fine. From now on, you must do what you can, and don't blindly try to be quick. Of course, it's also because we are not by your side. We are a little busy these days." Lu Xu Lei's tone softened a bit, and after reminding Qiao Bang, he also took the responsibility on himself.

"Where has Grandpa Lu been these few days?" Seeing that Lu Xulei took the initiative to mention it, Qiao Bang hurriedly asked the question he was most concerned about.

Immediately, Lu Xulei told Qiao Bang as briefly as possible about the retreat of the black-robed man from the Allied Forces of the Five Provinces and his appearance in the tent of the Chinese army, and Qiao Bang was taken aback.

"So, this black-robed man is very powerful, but he didn't take any action. It seems that he doesn't want to do it himself. Instead, he runs around and stabilizes the forces of all parties. It seems to be delaying the rhythm?" Qiao Bang pondered. Tell me your analysis after a while.

"Xiao Bang, do you know the origin of the man in the black robe?" The reason why Lu Xulei tried so hard was to get the words out of Qiao Bang's mouth. There was no contact between them.

"I don't know. I've never seen the man in black, but I've heard of a lot of his deeds. My college teacher Wu Jin was also rescued by the man in black. He seems to be a very enthusiastic and strong man."

"You've never had any contact with the man in black?" Lu Xulei was shocked, and looked straight at Qiao Bang, as if he wanted to see whether there were signs of lying on Qiao Bang's face.

"No, I just heard that people in black robes are so strong, how can they look up to a kid my age." I have to say that Lu Xulei's wide-eyed eyes are indeed a bit scary, and Qiao Bang feels that he just fell in love with him. After taking a shower, I started sweating again.

Lu Xulei has been in charge of the army for decades and has seen countless people. Judging from Qiao Bang's expression, he did not intend to conceal or deceive, but it made Lu Xulei mutter.

The two have never been in contact, but the man in black is very optimistic about Qiao Bang. This logical relationship is really weird. From this point of view, the man in black should have contacts with Qiao Bang's closest relatives, otherwise how would he know his secret? In the case of Qiao Bang, he can still place high hopes on it.

As for the rescue of the college teacher, maybe it was a coincidence that the man in black guarded Qiao Bang secretly...

The more Lu Xulei thought about it, the more he felt his head swell. He always felt that there seemed to be something wrong in it, but he couldn't grasp the entry point.

"Grandpa Lu?"

The crisp shout pulled Lu Xulei out of his thoughts, got up and grabbed Qiao Bang's little hand, as if he was about to walk towards the mountain road.

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet Cui Quji!"

"Ah? What are you doing?" Qiao Bang was really a little dazed. The last thing he wanted to see was Cui Quji. He was afraid that if he arranged himself clearly and let himself soak in a medicinal bath, his brain would also be flooded. up.

"Master Cui told me, you'll know when we meet." Lu Xulei said in a deep voice.

Although I don't want it in every way, since it's Cui Quji's intention, I can't hide from the first day of the junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth day...

Just like this, Lu Xulei dragged him forward. Fortunately, he was not fast enough to keep up with the pace. Behind him were Hong Tianying and Luo Xiaotao. It seemed that because of Luo Xiaotao's reason, Lu Xulei increased the speed several times. down.

After a while, Bixia Mountain Villa came into view. This is one of the few relatively spacious places on Bixia Mountain. It has also been carefully arranged by many disciples to form a manor. Countless spiritual plants are planted here and there. in the dense jungle.

The four of them walked into the stone path with the guidance of the disciples of Bixia Sect, and came to a remote wooden attic several times.

This attic is also quite strange. There are various colors of smoke in it, which quietly dissipate when they flow out from the crack of the door. The strength involved pulling it inward, and the gray mist covered all the colors and gushed out from the inside, and a large group of crimson shadows could be vaguely seen, roughly estimated to be at least six feet high.

Qiao Bang looked intently, and through the thick and thin gray fog, he could already see the situation in the attic clearly. The gray fog rolled and surged repeatedly, and gradually revealed its outline. It turned out to be an extremely huge, red-red cauldron. Different from the mottled surface, it actually shone with fluorescence like jade. It didn't look like a metal texture at all, maybe it wasn't made of Lingshi in the first place.

And the gray mist is coming out of the lid of the cauldron. There are very symmetrical holes on the lid, and the red light flows in it, like a giant crane circling back and forth in the body of the tripod. If you look closely, you will find There are several perfectly round pills rising and falling with the giant crane, as if there is no intention of stopping.

Suddenly, the body of the tripod was bright red, and red smoke floated out of it, all the original gray mist was blown away, and a person was seen pushing the lid of the tripod, and in the flashing red light, a giant red crane hoisted a person. After rising and landing on the ground, the giant crane slowly dissipated, turning into countless Li Yan and attached to the body surface. As Li Yan gradually absorbed into the skin, a humanoid silhouette was revealed, it was Cui Quji!
It is the first time Qiao Bang has seen that alchemy is actually going to put himself in the furnace!

But looking at the unmoved expressions of Lu Xulei and Hong Tianying next to him, it seems that this is how alchemy should be practiced...

"It's done! Gushen Pill!" Cui Quji smiled, and his soft voice came out of his mouth.

"Congratulations to Miracle Doctor Cui!" Hong Tianying spoke first, changing his usual indifference to answering, and showing respect instead.

"The harvest is good this time, and seven pieces have been refined. If you think about it, you can get at least three more Spirit King Realm experts for my Southern Region Legion!"

"Uncle Cui, what is Gushen Pill?" Qiao Bang asked directly, regardless of whether Cui Quji's interest was swept away.

"Gushen Pill, for spiritual warriors, those who have been trapped in the spirit realm for more than ten years and have difficulty advancing an inch are generally due to insufficient spiritual power innately, and they have not tempered their spiritual power in the process of cultivating the day after tomorrow, so they cannot condense into spiritual strength. For the outline of the Consciousness Sea, you need the Solidifying Pill as an aid."

"It's so miraculous? Can it break through from the spirit rank realm to the spirit king realm?" Qiao Bang was greatly surprised. This was also the first time he knew about the Gushen Pill, and he had never heard of it before.

"Of course, breakthroughs can be achieved not only by relying on the solidifying pill, but also by taking other pills, but the function of the solidifying pill is to freeze the liquid mental power for a few hours, and take this opportunity to concentrate on piecing together the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness. Once the framework is completed and breaks through to the spirit king state, half of the success will be achieved. It is a rare opportunity for many spirit warriors who are limited by their own qualifications, so this solidifying pill is quite valuable."

"Huh? How much is it worth?"

"Let's start bidding at 200 million Galo coins for a Gushen Pill. Under normal circumstances, it can be sold at a price of 450 million to 500 million Galo coins." Lu Xulei said slowly, answering Qiao Bang's question.

"Hiss..." Qiaobang gasped, and Qiaobang was greatly moved by such an expensive price.

I don't know if it's too late to join the Bixia sect now?Is alchemy so profitable?
"However, this way of taking pills to break through is not suitable for you. Only those who have failed to improve their cultivation base will consider it, and it is not without danger. If the foundation is not strong, the process of consolidating the spiritual power will backfire, and people will suffer. It looks like a fool, and there is no sanity at all."

"Oh……"

"Listen clearly, little bastard! If you want me to know that you have misused pills to improve your cultivation, I will throw you into the furnace to make pills!" Cui Quji reprimanded viciously. For some reason, every time he saw Qiao Bang If you don't get angry, it may be that every time you meet, you will ask yourself for natural materials and earthly treasures. None of those materials are cheap, and children don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil, salt, let alone those precious natural materials and earthly treasures?
"Understood, I will never take medicine casually, please don't worry, Uncle Cui!" Qiao Bang immediately agreed, blocked Cui Quji and continued to read, compared to the sound of hammering iron in the hinterland of Shimoshan, Cui Quji's voice was really more uncomfortable to hear.

"That's about the same! How is your foot now?"

"I have fully recovered, thanks to the medicinal soup prepared by you, Uncle Cui, otherwise I would not have been able to recover so quickly." Qiao Bang answered hurriedly, wanting to end the topic as soon as possible.

"It means that you are still young. If other soldiers come to me with a sprained foot, I will ignore it!" Cui Quji is no one when he is arrogant. The junior reminds Qiao Bang's sense of proportion and the scale of being a human being.

"Isn't it because Uncle Cui loves me? Uncle Cui treats me the best!"

"Stop! Are you going to ask me to search for treasures again? That's how you made me happy last time, you little brat!" Cui Quji heard the implication, and immediately became vigilant. Now he looked at Qiao Bang's eyes are getting worse and worse. How does this kid manage to find a lot of things for him every time he meets him? It's so troublesome.

"Hey, I can't hide anything from you. There is indeed one thing. I have contracted a golden mink. I want to collect some natural and earthly treasures to make it evolve in another evolutionary path. "

"Be honest, but the man in black told you? You'd better think clearly and answer. I asked Hu Sigui. There is no teacher in the academy who has the ability to guide you to change the evolution direction of spirit beasts!" At the end of the sentence, Cui Quji Some tone became more serious, trying to frighten Qiao Bang and force him to tell the truth.

"Ah? I haven't seen a man in black?" Qiao Bang was so scolded that he couldn't speak, he hesitated for a while, and then he choked out this sentence.

"Then how do you know about those treasures of heaven, material and earth? Do you know how much money the Southern Territory Legion has spent collecting sky crystal stalactites just because you know that chasing light leopards can evolve into glowing white leopards? And what you said What kind of golden mink and what kind of spirit beast?"

"In the process of making a contract with the golden mink, I heard a sentence that seemed like nothing, and I remembered it in my heart. It was the same when I contracted with the leopard and the raven before that. I could always hear a voice. It came into my mind. As for the golden mink, it is a kind of uncommon spirit beast." Qiao Bang ambiguously spoke, three parts were true and seven parts were false, and he explained ambiguously.

"So that's how it is..." Cui Quji combined his own analysis and attributed all Qiao Bang's words to the black-robed man's secret voice transmission, and even more firmly believed that the black-robed man must have a connection with Qiao Bang, but he never appeared in front of him. .

It seems that only when the matter is attributed to the man in the black robe can the unimaginable things that happened to Qiao Bang make sense, but it is impossible for these outsiders to know, and it is not the so-called black robe that makes Qiao Bang make a decision. People, but the Colt system that has been lurking in the body is causing trouble.

Lu Xulei and Hong Tianying, who were present at the time, also had the same reaction as Cui Quji after listening to it. They preconceived that Qiao Bang must be closely watched by the man in black.

"Let's talk about it, what are the natural and earthly treasures?" Cui Quji accepted the reality that Qiaobang's rapid growth had a positive effect on the Southern Region Legion. Despite the heartache, Cui Quji still asked patiently.

"You need two phoenix-tailed snow lotus plants, sixteen ice-cold birch leaves, three nine-turn yin and yang ginseng, six rhizomes of frost-tranquil iris, and a whole piece of ice-cold marrow."

"What?" Hong Tianying was not calm anymore, and her eyes widened when she heard it.

"Ice Pore and Cold Essence... You have to go to the north to do it. This kind of ice crystals only exists in Dingbai Province, and can only be collected from icebergs that are rarely inhabited. Someone once brought it to the south and sold it at a high price. People will dissipate in the heaven and earth before reaching the Garan Province. And this kind of ice crystals is rare, usually in the depths of icebergs, it is extremely difficult to obtain, and the rewards are not directly proportional to the effort. Few people obtain this object..." Lu Xulei said in a deep voice, the brigade commander of the northern border army is well-informed, and he explained Cui Quji's confused expression only after seeing Cui Quji's confused expression.

"Little bastard, it's not that I don't want to help you. I only know the nine-turn yin and yang ginseng for the materials you mentioned, and this material is extremely expensive. I have seen it once, but it is still an extremely sought-after treasure of heaven, material and earth, because it can prolong life, provide protection when breaking through cultivation, and can reconcile the energy in the body, so as not to fall into a state of madness."

"Pteris phoenix-tailed snow lotus is not rare, but it needs to be stored in a special container. It is best to take it immediately after picking in Dingbai Province. It will significantly improve the perception of ice element aura." Hong Tianying said, and went for Cui. Answer questions quickly.

"The leaves of the ice birch are basically grown side by side, and they need to be stored in a special container as soon as they are picked, but the ice birch only grows in the area near the element core, and There are spirit beasts around, and there are occasional groups of ice crystal snow demons, so if you want to get the complete birch leaves of the frozen soul, you must have a conflict with the spirit beasts." Lu Xulei said in a deep voice, his face a little dignified.

"Frost Silence Iris is a terrifying spiritual plant. It is extremely exclusive and does not allow other spiritual plants to co-exist. Its color is bright red and it looks extremely coquettish. It is very conspicuous in the ice and snow, but it is the last thing spiritual warriors want. Contact, because the petals and pollen of Frost Silence Iris are highly toxic, let alone close, as long as it is within a kilometer of the flower bushes, it can be affected. This kind of flower can still bloom in extremely cold climates, and it is a snow creature It is an existence that no one wants to touch. Fortunately, it has extremely high requirements on the soil, otherwise the frost-free irises will spread all over the mountains and fields, and no one will be able to survive."

"Little bastard, the treasures of heaven and earth you mentioned are not so simple..." Cui Quji frowned, already understanding that things were a little tricky.

Phoenix-tailed snow lotus needs to go to the northern border, it is best not to leave, this is very difficult in itself, going to the northern border at Qiao Bang's age will encounter many dangers, even if he understands Xuehua's heart, it may not be easy, Bing Po The same is true for the cold marrow, which melts away when it leaves the snowy region...

Bingbing Soul Birch Leaf is relatively easy, after all, it is necessary to understand Xuehua's heart. At that time, you can first understand Xuehua's heart and then get closer to the core, so as to strengthen your cultivation and improve your perception of ice element aura. As for the spirit beast There are also ice crystal snow monsters, so I had to kill them one by one...

Nine-turn yin and yang ginseng can be bought with money, it's nothing more than a matter of how much it costs, so I can't help myself to worry about it. With Yang Chengfu around, it's not my turn to worry about it.

The rhizome of the Frost-Ji Iris... is a bit difficult to deal with, mainly because I don’t know how poisonous it is. There are many toxins that penetrate into the internal organs through breathing. Cui Quji has never been in contact with the Frost-Ji Iris, so I don’t know how toxic it is, so I can’t prescribe the right medicine. From Lu Xulei's few words, it can be heard that he is somewhat afraid of the Shuangji Iris flower. Perhaps this caution is bought by the soldiers' lives.

"If it's so troublesome, let's forget it. It's not particularly urgent." After listening to Qiao Bang, he also felt that it seemed very troublesome. Now that there are so many golden minks migrating to the north, only one golden mink accidentally hit and turned into a panic. Frozen Frost Sable, I paid more attention to it because of the information on the panel that it was contracted by He Yu. If it doesn’t work, choose the ultimate evolution path. The Purple Electric Gold Thunder Sable also sounds very good. He has a special liking, and Qiao Bang is obsessed with the kind of spiritual power that quickly fills the whole body of the soul-breaking gun. Compared with other elemental attribute spiritual power, it is easier.Moreover, the lightning strike stone is relatively easy to obtain, and Qiao Bang is not an unreasonable person, and he will not demand too much.

"No, since it is beneficial to you, you must carry it out!" Cui Quji suddenly got excited, and rejected Qiao Bang's prevarication.

"Ah, this..." Qiao Bang was a little dazed, he didn't know what he said that provoked Cui Quji's reaction, and his tone of voice was not so soft.

"I will try my best to gather all the treasures you need before you leave, so as not to delay your long journey."

"Travel? Shouldn't I just go to Wanfeng City to study?" Qiao Bang really didn't understand, and couldn't understand what Cui Quji was talking about.

"Did no one tell you that you are going to the Loulan Dynasty? It is a waste of time to continue studying at Dinghai Junior Lingwu Academy. You should go to the vast world instead of tossing around here." Cui Quji was also stunned. I thought that Qiao Bang knew about it long ago, but I didn't realize that I reminded myself.

"..."

"Go back to Qiaozhuang, and say goodbye to your mother. You don't know when you will come back this time. You have to work hard. No one can be your backer. In the future, you will be your own backer!" Cui Quji is rare He spoke seriously, but at the end he felt uncharacteristically, and there were some weird portamentos in his tone.

"Oh... okay, thank you, Uncle Cui." Qiao Bang was noncommittal, extremely uncomfortable with Cui Quji's tone at the moment.

"Trouble brigade commander Lu escorted Qiao Bang away." Cui Quji slightly apologized and bowed slightly to Lu Xulei.

"It's okay, I'm not by his side these days, I happened to give Qiao Bang a few words on the way back." Seeing Cui Quji's politeness, Lu Xulei responded accordingly. The two are indeed not familiar with each other, and Cui Quji has never He took the initiative to win over Lu Xulei and was busy dealing with the frequent intrusions of the Shenwei Army, but Lu Xulei did not want to intervene in the affairs of the Southern Region Army, so he drank and got drunk in Shimo Mountain, and had no intersection with each other.

The two said goodbye politely, Lu Xulei dragged Qiao Bang away, Cui Quji watched Qiao Bang go down the mountain, his voice turned cold, and he turned his head to look at Hong Tianying, with a rather unfriendly tone.

"For the sake of you being Qiao Bang's master for a while, I didn't refute your face in front of Qiao Bang. I didn't want you to meet Luo Xiaotao, but Luo Xiaotao kept begging to meet you, Secondly, she is also pregnant with your flesh and blood, and I don't want to be the villain who broke up the husband and wife. I can forget about how you treated Luo Xiaotao before, but since you have come to the Southern Region, you can worship my Bixia faction in the future, no It will let you charge forward, you just need to protect Luo Xiaotao and your children. Will you agree?"

"Cui Miracle Physician is benevolent and righteous, Tianying will remember it in his heart!" Hong Tianying did not dare to make mistakes, bowed his head and bowed in full agreement.

"From now on, you will be the guard of Bixia Villa. Don't leave the southern region without my permission, or don't blame me for being ruthless!" Cui Quji didn't accept this, and made Hong Tianying's arrangement clear.

"Thank you, Dr. Cui!" Hong Tianying lowered her body even lower.

"Take care of Luo Xiaotao, I'll continue alchemy!" Cui Quji turned around with a flick of his sleeves, stepped into the attic and closed the wooden door again with a crisp sound.

Hong Tianying and Luo Xiaotao looked at each other, smiled in relief, took Luo Xiaotao's hand and walked towards Luo Xiaotao's residence, helping her from time to time to prevent her from stepping on the empty stone steps.

However, Cui Quji inside the door did not continue alchemy as he said, but leaned on the load-bearing pillars of the attic, looking at the furnace that was still emitting heat, dazed.

"Since it was a reminder from the man in black, I think those natural treasures are really beneficial to Qiao Bang..."

"The rise and fall of the Southern Territory is all due to Qiao Bang alone. Qiao Anguo and Yang Chengfu didn't hesitate in this big bet, but I always feel that there is some logic that cannot be proved by itself..."

"There is no easy way to practice... If you want to ensure Qiao Bang's safety, you have to arrange a disciple who can heal Qiao Bang in time to protect him so you can rest assured..."

"The speed of a person's growth often depends on his hatred of reality. Perhaps only by letting Qiao Bang go out of the Southern Region, experience the whole picture of the world, and taste the dangers of the world, will he put his kindness into practice..."

Opening his palms and looking at the Gushen Pill in his palms, Cui Quji felt a little flustered for no reason.

I don't know whether it's because I'm shrinking from the unpredictable future, or I'm hesitant about the future development of the Southern Territory.

All in all, it's hard to calm down.

After all, it is difficult to decide.

This week’s writing was a bit stuck, and some words were deleted repeatedly, and the wording was as concise as possible, so this chapter wrote more than 7200 words, which should be [-] words in theory.

The number of words owed will be completed this week.
