Mortal Bones

"Bamboo rice? It's the seed of bamboo, right?"

Xu Taiping had heard of Zhumi.

"That's right. Can you peel it off and see how many there are?"

Fairy Lingyue nodded, and then urged.

Xu Taiping nodded, peeled the caryopsis open, and then took out two long rice-shaped fruits.

"There are only two. I'm not very lucky."

Fairy Lingyue said with regret upon seeing this.

"How many should I have normally?"

Xu Taiping asked.

"If you're lucky, you'll get three. If you're not lucky, you'll only get one."

Fairy Lingyue replied.

"That's okay."

Xu Taiping smiled.

"What's so good? Bamboo rice is best at breeding weapons. One more seed means one more weapon."

Fairy Lingyue's face was still filled with regret.

When Xu Taiping heard this, he only felt a slight pain in his heart.

"Otherwise, I'll give you my one this time. An extra weapon will give you an extra way to save your life."

Fairy Lingyue suddenly suggested.

Under normal circumstances, she would need to take a fruit from the earth fruit to nourish her divine energy, but this bamboo rice was so precious that she felt it was not worth it.

"no."

Xu Taiping refused.

"Sister Lingyue and I made an agreement when we first planted the fruit. Sister, you must have a share of the fruit produced by the fruit. This is a fair deal that you and I agreed on from the beginning."

He said very seriously.

Seeing Xu Taiping abide by the agreement she had made with him so seriously, Fairy Lingyue felt funny and a little touched at the same time.

"Taiping, please think carefully. This opportunity is really rare. The probability of burning bamboo and rice next time is very small."

Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping again.

"certainly."

Xu Taiping nodded without hesitation.

"In this case, we don't need to look for other nutrients, we can just go to the yard and plant it."

Fairy Lingyue did not persist.

…

After some consideration, Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue finally chose the atrium of Qiyuexuan to plant these two bamboo rice.

Because there is a bamboo forest in the atrium, which can be used as a cover.

"Although this is a hanging mountain, its energy is connected to the main peak of the Seventh Peak, so even if it is planted here, the Earth Fruit can still obtain the spiritual fortune of the entire Seventh Peak and the treasures buried in the mountain for thousands of years. treasure."

Fairy Lingyue explained to Xu Taiping the reason for planting the earth fruit directly here.

"It's better to plant it here, so you don't need to take care of it all the time."

Xu Taiping, who had already dug the hole, nodded.

As for the nutrients Earth Fruit needs this time, he has already prepared them.

The Su Chan sword scabbard obtained from the Sixth Princess, the Ice Soul Moon Spirit Stone given by Xiao Ping An's father, and the batch of gold jewelry obtained from the Black Eagle Kingdom's palace.

"With Su Chan's scabbard and the ice soul moon spirit stone, even if I can't produce an immortal weapon, I can at least produce a high-grade spiritual weapon, and the batch of gold jewelry can almost help me repair one of the three souls. "

Looking at the two large holes dug by Xu Taiping in the bamboo forest, Fairy Lingyue murmured to herself.

"To be honest, I still prefer knives."

Xu Taiping smiled sarcastically.

If Fairy Lingyue didn't allow it, he would have thrown the Spring Tiger Sword in his hand.

"The purpose of flying swords is not just for fighting. For example, if you have a flying sword and learn the art of sword control, you can be independent of the power of heaven and earth, and you can reach a place thousands of miles away in an instant."

"As for the knife, for you now, the Haruhu is more than enough."

Fairy Lingyue shook her head.

Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping felt that his knowledge of swords was indeed too shallow, and he immediately nodded with a learned expression on his face.

"Speaking of which, it's time for you to learn the art of sword control, right? Why hasn't the Seventh Peak Master allowed you to become a disciple for so long?"

After planting the earth fruit, Fairy Lingyue suddenly said something strange.

"Senior Brother Qingxiao mentioned it before, saying that after a while, an elder will come to teach me how to practice swordsmanship, and then there will be no need to go out of my way to become a disciple."

Xu Taiping replied.

"Well, that's fine too."

Fairy Lingyue nodded.

"It will take at least three years for these two green bamboos to mature. When the bamboo shoots sprout in two or three months, I should also fall asleep in the earth fruit. If anything happens next, you may have to rely on yourself. "

She suddenly looked at Xu Taiping with a serious face.

"Sister Lingyue, you don't have to worry about me. I will try my best to deal with what I can handle. If I can't, I still have Ping'an Baiyu and the senior brothers from the Seventh Peak."

Xu Taiping smiled.

"I forgot that you are no longer alone."

Fairy Lingyue smiled happily after hearing this.

"But if you plan to attack Lu Chen before and after the Seven Peaks Competition, I should still be able to catch up."

She then murmured as if talking to herself.

"Regardless of whether you, Sister Lingyue, are here or not, don't interfere in this matter. If I still can't kill him under such a plan, wouldn't I feel guilty for your cultivation, Sister Lingyue?"

Xu Taiping smiled at Fairy Lingyue.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Lingyue also chuckled happily.

"But having said that, although I can't leave Earth Fruit, I should be able to wake up once every three months. If I really miss it, I can hear your good news then."

She looked forward to it.

"good!"

Xu Taiping nodded heavily.

"Qi Yuexuan, Xu Taiping, I have your letter!"

Just as Xu Taiping was about to return to Shilou to continue practicing, a sharp voice suddenly came from the door of Qiyuexuanyuan.

No need to ask, this must be the spiritual bird that delivers messages.

"Is there anyone sending me a letter so late?"

Xu Taiping said this while walking towards the door of Qiyuexuan.

"Your Peak Master's letter, after he asks you to receive it, be sure to open it immediately to avoid any delays."

After receiving the merit coins thrown by Xu Taiping, the crane that delivered the message jumped into the sky after throwing these words.

"A letter from your peak master?"

Fairy Lingyue was also a little curious at this time.

"It is indeed our peak master's handwriting."

Xu Taiping nodded.

Fairy Lingyue glanced at it, then nodded and said:

"really."

The handwriting on the envelope looked like something crawled out of a chicken's claws. Not many people in Qifeng could write it except Zhao Qian.

Open the envelope and pull out the letter paper.

It took Xu Taiping a long time to finally recognize all the words on it——

"Tomorrow morning at dawn, go to Qifeng Laoyuetan. A sect elder will come to teach you how to practice swordsmanship. Just call him Elder Sansan. Elder Sansan has a bad temper. Just practice how he teaches you. Modo asked.

"Xu Taiping, although Elder Sansan has a weird temper, his swordsmanship is superb and not inferior to that of Uncle Ninth. You must not let down the hard work of your Peak Master."

After reading it again, Xu Taiping suddenly frowned and said with some confusion:

"Who is this Third Elder? His swordsmanship is not inferior to Uncle Ninth's. Why have I never heard of it?"
