I studied abroad in modern times

Zheng Fa never thought that Zhao Jinglan would come to him in the dead of night.

He was practicing in the quiet room.

He heard a gentle knock on the door.

He originally thought it was the Seventh Young Master, but when he opened the door, Zhao Jinglan was looking at him at the door. Seeing that he seemed to want to speak, she put her index finger to her lips and made a gesture to silence him.

Zheng Fa glanced at the guest room and knew that she probably didn't want the Seventh Young Master to hear something.

He gently opened the door, invited Zhao Jinglan into the room, threw a silent note at the door and said: "Senior Sister Zhao, do you have something to talk to me?"

Zhao Jinglan also looked back at the guest room where the Seventh Young Master lived, and saw that there seemed to be no movement there, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"When I mentioned Taiyang County yesterday, I saw your face. You probably know what happened in Taiyang County?"

"I know, the spirit cave was born." Zheng Fa nodded.

Zhao Jinglan nodded slightly and said, "Then you also know what I'm going to do, right?"

"...rob the spirit stone mine?"

Zheng Fa's tone was hesitant, and he seemed to be unsure of his answer.

Zhao Jinglan curled his lips: "Am I going to die?"

Zheng Fa nodded. Even Sister Zhang, who is comparable to the Nascent Soul, is so cautious about the spirit stone mine.

Zhao Jinglan is just a foundation-building.

Only crazy people would want this.

"When the spirit cave is born, there are not only spirit stone mines, but also some other spirit materials." He seemed to really not understand: "Of course, those precious ones are not my business, but those with low value, I still have a chance."

"...Senior sister, you didn't tell the seventh young master about this."

Zheng Fa silenced Zhao Jinglan with just one sentence.

Both of them knew the loophole in Zhao Jinglan's words--

Yes, those big shots are going for those high-value spirit materials.

But as the saying goes, since you are here.

It's not like their storage bags can't hold them, why don't they take the low-value spirit materials?

Zheng Fa also read a short article in modern times about a billionaire who picked up coins that fell on the ground. Don't worry about whether it's true or not. Aren't those big guys allowed to save money?

What's more, spiritual plants are becoming increasingly scarce and have great potential for appreciation.

Who would complain about this thing?

"Brother, I'm not as lucky as you." Zhao Jinglan bowed his head for a long time before speaking: "As soon as you entered the sect, you were favored by Senior Sister Zhang and accepted as a disciple by the headmaster."

"I entered the sect ten years ago and barely built my foundation. I don't have such a good talent for talismans as you do. I am also mediocre in the alchemy talent that Qingmu Sect values ​​most."

"If I don't take risks, I might end here in my life."

Zheng Fa understood.

Compared with Han Qi, Zhao Jinglan is much luckier-although it is difficult for her to build her foundation, she has built her foundation after all.

But unfortunately, compared with Han Qi, she can see hope, but this hope is so slim that sometimes it is better not to see it.

"If Jingfan doesn't live up to his expectations, I won't take the risk..." Zhao Jinglan suddenly talked about the Seventh Young Master again: "But Jingfan is now protected by Master Jindan, so it doesn't make much difference whether I, the foundation-building sister, have him or not."

"If the spirit cave doesn't appear, I will wait until Jingfan builds his foundation, and then I will leave the sect to look for my own opportunity." Zhao Jinglan looked up at Zheng Fa: "Junior Brother Zheng, for me, the only thing I can risk in this Xuanwei world is my life."

Zheng Fa looked at Zhao Jinglan and was speechless for a while.

"Then why did Senior Sister Zhao come here?"

"Jingfan and you are close friends, I only ask you one thing..."

"I will take care of him..."

"If I really die in Taiyang County, please stop Jingfan and don't let him get impulsive... I think there are not many people in the world who can stop him." Zhao Jinglan made a request that Zheng Fa didn't expect.

"..." Zheng Fa pursed his lips and asked, "Is Taiyang County so dangerous?"

"I don't know either, but there are rumors that someone from the Great Freedom Demon Sect has appeared."

The Great Freedom Demon Sect?

Zheng Fa slowly frowned.

Senior Sister Zhang had never told him about this.

He now knew why Senior Sister Zhang seemed to be in a bit of trouble with her cultivation - the Great Freedom Demon Sect, the oldest branch of the Demon Sect.

How ancient is it?

The group of ancient cultivators who killed all the people in the world before were their predecessors.

In a sense, the people in the Xuanwei Realm are probably their descendants.

Of course, everyone is now in a state of looking down on each other.

The cultivators in the Xuanwei Realm think it's not nice to have such an ancestor.

The Great Freedom Demon Sect thinks these weak chickens are not worthy of being associated with them.

No wonder Senior Sister Zhang seems a bit tricky.

"Then Senior Sister Zhao..." Zheng Fa wanted to persuade again.

"Junior Brother Zheng, the opportunity for the spirit cave to be born is too great..."

Zhao Jinglan's eyes lit up, and there seemed to be a flame in his pupils.

Zheng Fa stopped talking. After leaving the Zhao Mansion, he understood the eldest lady of the Zhao family - because of ten years of hard work, she has become a typical Xuanwei world cultivator:

She pursues opportunities regardless of her own life.

She sacrifices herself to improve her realm.

Every time she obtains resources, she does not hesitate to pay sweat or even blood.

Seeing Zheng Fa, he seemed to understand.

Zhao Jinglan smiled lightly and repeated again: "Junior Brother Zheng, not everyone is as lucky as you."

For a while, the room fell into silence.

The door was knocked gently again.

The seventh young master pushed the door open stealthily, and whispered: "Zheng Fa? Zheng Fa?"

"I don't know what happened to my sister today. She kept asking me to rest early."

"I still have a lot to tell you. It was inconvenient for my sister to be here before!"

He put his head into the quiet room and saw Zheng Fa and his sister looking at him in the quiet room.

"...Sister?" The seventh young master's eyes were a little complicated for a moment: "You also have something to whisper, and you want to tell Zheng Fa behind my back?"

…

The seventh young master and his brother were sent away.

Zheng Fa sat back in the quiet room.

The flames on the candlestick flickered, casting flickering light and shadow on his face, making his frown appear more profound.

He was actually not that worried about Zhao Jinglan looking for him.

Although he doesn't like to take risks, everyone has their own ambitions. This is Zhao Jinglan's own choice - the most he can do is to comfort and even use his influence to protect the seventh young master if something goes wrong.

What worries him is Senior Sister Zhang.

The name of the Great Freedom Demon Sect is not among the five major sects in the Xuanwei Realm.

In other words, the Demon Sect has been deprived of its ranking - the Xuanwei Realm has been peaceful for so many years, which has made the Demon Sect's living environment a bit harsh.

But this does not mean that the Great Freedom Demon Sect is not strong.

On the contrary, they have endured it for so many years, and this birth means that the peace of the Xuanwei world will be disrupted.

Senior Sister Yuan told him before that Senior Sister Zhang would have life-saving measures even if she encountered Yuanying when she went out.

Senior Sister Yuan acted very relieved at that time.

Because now there is a tacit understanding between the major immortal sects, Yuanying basically does not participate in the fight.

But this tacit understanding has always been unwritten.

Moreover - the Demon Sect has a tacit understanding with you?

When Senior Sister Zhang goes to Taiyang County, the situation she faces may be more dangerous than Zheng Fa thought before.

Even if we don’t talk about Senior Sister Zhang’s care for him.

Just say that Senior Sister Zhang is of extraordinary significance to the Jiushan Sect.

Zheng Fa saw it clearly and abandoned Senior Sister Zhang and the Jiu Shan Sect.

He is just in the Qi refining period now.

Probably worse than Zhao Jinglan.

What's more, if he wants to take advantage of Hyundai, he must have his own basic base.

The transformation from research results to practical applications is inseparable from the Jiushan Sect.

His fate is tied to the Jiushan Sect and Senior Sister Zhang.

But Senior Sister Zhang didn't tell her anything - I'm afraid she looked at him the same way Zhao Jinglan looked at the Seventh Young Master.

The only thing that I can really help Senior Sister Zhang now is the perfection of the "Food Dao Foundation Building Method".

He took out a Yuan Ning Dan and swallowed it.

This is the sixth elemental talisman he has condensed. In fact, there is nothing to choose from——

What he wants to condense now is the first positive talisman. In terms of the five elements, it is the earth element.

In the "Lingshan Method" revised by the leader, he combined his own talisman formation method with the "Lingshan Method" created by the Nine Mountain Patriarch.

In other words, if you want to use the "Lingshan Method", you need a kind of spiritual talisman - the spiritual talisman.

This kind of spiritual talisman is not very useful - it can apply a little spiritual power to the non-spiritual vegetation and rocks.

Generally speaking, monks in the Xuanwei world use this thing as a mark, such as leaving some secret codes or guiding the way for people traveling with them.

However, the leader used this thing to set up a formation and perfected the "Lingshan Method".

The Spirit-Awakening Talisman quickly fell into the Dantian, and in Zheng Fa's consciousness, the original talisman of the Spirit-Awakening Talisman gradually appeared on the lotus that was originally just a shadow.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, took out the jade tube given by Uncle Pang, and memorized it carefully.

…

Modern, old man Bai’s home.

Tang Lingwu was in the posture of a pine crane pile. Zheng Fa put his hand on her back and slowly injected spiritual power into Tang Lingwu's body.

These days, Zheng Fa has been helping Tang Lingwu and Old Man Bai practice the Linghe Body.

Probably because of her youth, Tang Lingwu was much faster than Old Man Bai.

Zheng Fa put his hand on Tang Lingwu's back while still thinking about Senior Sister Zhang.

Of course, he hopes that he can further analyze the runes and give Senior Sister Zhang the greatest help.

But he didn't have much confidence in this matter - thinking about it this way, his face looked a little worried.

The old man Bai on the side looked at the two people.

Tang Lingwu was immersed in contemplation.

On the contrary, it was Zheng Fa who was distracted and frowning.

"Zheng Fa? What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking that our research on runes is still too slow."

Zheng Fa sighed and said.

"Slow?" Old Man Bai was stunned and said, "I've never seen you in a hurry before?"

Zheng Fa shook his head. Of course he knew there was no rush to study this matter, but in this situation, it was difficult for him to adjust his mentality.

Seeing old man Bai looking at him in confusion.

Zheng Fa sighed and said, "I want to help someone?"

"Helping someone?" Old Man Bai asked, "A very important person?"

"It's important to me."

"...Male or female?" Old Man Bai touched his chin and suddenly asked again.

"...Female."

Zheng Fa looked at the old man puzzled, what does this have to do with men and women.

Old Man Bai curled his lips and looked at Tang Lingwu, who was still pretending to be concentrating on practicing. Could his ears be any more crooked?

Suddenly, Tang Lingwu's shoulder blades surged, her plump legs under her jeans kicked off the ground, and she jumped up toward the ceiling of Old Man Bai's house.

It was Zheng Fa who had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed Tang Lingwu's ankle - otherwise the girl would have had to test the quality of this old residential building with her head.

"Is this... jealousy?"

Old Man Bai stared blankly at Tang Lingwu, who opened her eyes blankly, and murmured.
