The Wheel-Turning Master

Arriving at Fengming Pavilion, Zhu Yuling saw Lin Bai's pale face and hurriedly invited her upstairs.

This time I changed to a better tea, full of spiritual energy and slightly scorching. After Lin Bai took a few sips, he felt warm all over and felt much more comfortable.

Seeing Zhu Yuling's concern, Lin Bai explained: "I was afraid of delaying for too long, so I opened several furnaces and refined all the Qi Nourishing Pills."

Zhu Yuling laughed when she heard this and said: "There is no need to be in such a hurry. You are only at the fifth level of Qi training and don't have much spiritual power. You can rest for a while after practicing for two furnaces. You must not do this. Besides, Qi-nourishing pills are ordinary. You don’t have to rush to deliver the goods.”

When she said this, she seemed to be convinced, and smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Yun is in short supply of spiritual stones?"

"It's not easy to be a casual cultivator, I made my sister laugh." Lin Bai said sweetly, following her words.

Zhu Yuling nodded and changed the topic to chat.

Lin Bai loved chatting with people most, and did not mention that he wanted to learn other elixirs. He just introduced the topic, let Zhu Yuling talk, and then echoed in various ways, and occasionally mentioned that his life was not easy.

As for women, just brush them along. Lin Bai can even serve a bastard like Jiang Xiaobai, let alone Zhu Yuling.

After chatting for a long time, seeing that it was almost done, Lin Bai handed over the refined Qi-nourishing Pill again. Fifty parts of Qi-nourishing elixir ingredients were used to obtain about 900 pills, and the success rate of the elixir was over 90%.

This Qi-nourishing elixir is extremely easy to refine. Once a newcomer becomes proficient, the elixir-making rate can easily reach 60%, but Lin Bai's result is already very good.

"Senior Zhu hasn't returned yet? I want to express my gratitude in person for your support." Lin Bai said with a smile.

"I'll be back in two days." Zhu Yuling handed over fifty portions of the Qi-nourishing elixir material to Lin Bai and said with a smile: "Refining the Qi-nourishing elixir is the easiest, but the profit is also thin. I know it's not easy for you. Wait until uncle returns. , you might be able to learn something else.”

This was Lin Bai's purpose. He immediately leaned over and bowed, saying, "Thank you so much, Sister Yuling."

Zhu Yuling smiled and warned: "Alchemy is the most labor-intensive, so don't force it."

"Thank you, sister, for your concern." Lin Bai bowed again, and then said, "But I have been introduced by Brother Yumao, and I have the support of Senior Zhu and sister, so how dare I not try my best?"

Zhu Yuling felt a little relieved when she saw that Lin Bai mentioned her and Zhu Jianyang, and even Zhu Yumao's recommendation was not forgotten.

Then he warned Lin Bai a few more times before letting Lin Bai leave.

Back in the cave, Lin Bai spent three days refining all the Qi-nourishing Pills, and then devoted himself to practicing.

However, I often go out of the cave for a walk. The Qi-training body is really weak, and I can't practice all the time. Occasionally attending a Taoist meeting is not interesting.

However, Jiang Xiaobai seemed to have changed his temper. Although he would harass her occasionally when he met her, he stopped making flirtatious remarks and instead focused on introducing Taoist companions to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai was a pure and self-respecting person who was not close to women, so how could he agree? Therefore, I strictly refuse every time.

Jiang Xiaobai tried several times and saw no success, so he stopped pimping. However, every time he looked at Lin Bai, his eyes looked strange, and his eyes moved down by three points, and there was actually a look of pity on his face.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Bai collected the Qi Nourishing Pill and opened the door of the cave.

I have a slight feeling in my heart, good luck.

They didn't go far and met little girl Jiang.

Lin Bai turned his head and pretended not to see it. Ji must not be able to cope with her!

"Hey, hey, hey!" The girl didn't let go, "What are you going to do?"

"I will do what I have to do." Lin Bai stopped and asked, "Why haven't you seen Fellow Daoist Yang these days? He has withdrawn from the cave?"

In the past ten days, Lin Bai had not seen his good neighbor Yang Xiang, not even at the Taoist meeting. Lin Bai suspected that he had left Xinyi Square and died outside.

This is a serious destination for casual cultivators.

"That's not true." Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, "I just found a good job and won't come back for the time being."

Speaking of this, she seemed to remember something and threw a bottle of elixir to Lin Bai.

"What is it?" Lin Bai took it curiously.

Now that he has refined many Qi-nourishing elixirs, Lin Bai is no longer a young child. When he smelled them briefly, he felt they were spicy and pungent, and for a while he could not discern the nature of the medicine.

"This is the Tiger Wolf Pill." Jiang Xiaobai came closer and whispered, "Although a monk's body is strong, it still has shortcomings. This can make up for your shortcomings and make you powerful..."

Lin Bai didn't understand, but when he saw her eyes moving downward, he understood immediately.

He immediately threw the Tiger Wolf Pill back and said with a sneer: "I am extremely talented. I can control twelve women at night without feeling tired. How can I use this thing?"

After that, he strode away.

"You have such a tough mouth, you should refine it into a flying sword." The girl stuck out her tongue at Lin Bai's back.

Lin Bai ignored it at all and walked onto the street to Fengming Pavilion.

After entering the door, he greeted Zhu Yuling.

Zhu Yuling bowed in return and said, "Uncle is back and is upstairs. You can come with me."

As she spoke, she waved to a worker, who looked at the counter while she led Lin Bai upstairs.

In the same room, Zhu Jianyang was sitting on a chair, holding a book in his hand, with a smile on his face and flicking his goat's beard.

Lin Bai stepped forward and saluted.

"Sit down." Zhu Jianyang was very easy-going, "I heard from Yuling that you have some talent in alchemy, which is rare."

"Thank you, senior, for your support." Lin Bai smiled, took out the Qi-Nourishing Pill, handed it to Zhu Yuling, and said, "Fifty pieces of materials equal one thousand and fifty pills for the Qi-Nourishing Pill."

Zhu Yuling took it with a smile, glanced at it, received it in the storage ring, and said with a smile: "So, a total of twenty-one pills are produced in one furnace. Fellow Taoist Yun is making more and more progress, which is gratifying."

In fact, a total of twenty-three pills were produced in one pot, and Lin Bai was greedy for one hundred. It wasn't that he meant to take advantage, but Lin Bai knew that he had to show a little bit of his skills today, but he couldn't show too much.

However, the Qi Nourishing Pill is, after all, a simple and easy thing to refine, which is not too surprising.

"Lucky lucky." Lin Bai cupped his hands and smiled.

"It's indeed good. My disciples often have to try more than a dozen furnaces before they can produce a stable product." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, looked at Lin Bai, and asked: "You have been making alchemy for more than a month, do you have any experience? Come and listen.”

Lin Bai understood, so he told the problems he encountered in alchemy one by one, and compared them with Zhu Jianguang's notes.

After saying this, we chatted for a while.

Lin Bai saw that Zhu Jianyang was really easy-going and had no airs, so he curiously asked: "Senior, I have a good friend who has entered the Tianchi sect's mountain gate, but it has been more than a month now and he has not come down the mountain. I went to the Tianchi sect to ask, but even the mountain gate did not show up. If you don’t let me in, it will be difficult even to send a message.”

"You don't have to worry." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, "The Chi sect acted quite upright that day. The new disciples had to learn a lot and were strictly controlled. There were times when they couldn't go down the mountain for a while."

"So that's it." Lin Bai felt relieved and asked again: "Senior, I heard someone in Xinyi Square say that the four major Jindan sects rarely recruit new people from casual cultivators. Why did they recruit so many at once this time? Is there any profound meaning in it?”

Now more than a month has passed since the four major sects recruited new disciples, and a lot of news has also come out. For example, the Tianchi sect has accepted more than 300 new disciples, and the Huaqing sect has accepted more than 500 new disciples.

In the past fifty years, nothing like this has happened.

"It's indeed unusual." Zhu Jianyang sighed, "If the ancestor was here, I could make some inquiries. But now that the ancestor has died..."

When he said this, he just shook his head but said no more.

Zhu Yuling also sighed, quite dejectedly.

The two of them were no longer interested in talking, and Lin Bai couldn't stay any longer.

After a few more polite words, Lin Bai stood up and left.

"Wait a minute." Zhu Jianyang beckoned and took out a booklet, "This is the handwriting of my brother Zhu Jianguang. You were reading the first volume before, and this is the second volume. There is a recipe for Qi Condensing Pill in it. Go back and think about it carefully. Think about it." At this point, he looked at Zhu Yuling again.

Zhu Yuling took out the wooden box from the storage ring, handed it to Lin Bai, and said, "This is the material for twenty Qi Condensation Pills."

Lin Bai didn't show any pretense and took it directly, then thanked him again.

"The Qi Condensing Pill is a little more difficult and consumes more spiritual power. You don't have to rush to deliver the goods, just practice your skills." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry about the materials. Gaining more experience is the key. If it happens three times in a row If that doesn’t work, take a break and study Zhu Jianguang’s handwriting more.”

"Yes." Lin Bai leaned over and bowed, then curiously asked: "Senior, when I read this handbook earlier, I felt that this senior Zhu Jianguang is extremely talented in alchemy, and he always has unconventional words..."

Before he finished his praise, Lin Bai saw Zhu Yuling lowering her head and sighing.

"Dead. I went out with the ancestor, but no one came back." Zhu Jianyang shook his head, and said with a smile, "He is the most promising person in the 'Jian' generation." After saying that, he waved his hand to signal that the meeting was dismissed. .

Lin Bai knew that he had said the wrong thing again, bowed, and followed Zhu Yuling downstairs.

After leaving Fengming Pavilion, on the way back, Lin Bai couldn't figure it out: Why did the ancestor of the Zhu family take out the good seedlings of the family when he went out? What are you going to do?

This is probably a secret of the Zhu family, and only the head of the Zhu family knows about it.

Lin Bai felt that he was deeply involved with the Zhu family, and he was afraid that he might still be involved in the matter in the future.

But it's too early to think about this now. I'm just practicing Qi, so I can't help even if I want to.

Returning to the Jiang family property, I saw Jiang Xiaobai talking to a female cultivator, probably trying to trick someone again.

Lin Bai did not hide away this time. Instead, after she finished fooling the female nun, he walked up to her, bowed and saluted, and said, "Little friend Jiang."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Xiaobai put his hands on his hips and looked serious.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you know why the four major sects suddenly accepted so many casual cultivators?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

Lin Bai didn't think deeply about it before. After all, he had just arrived here and had not yet integrated into it. But now, I always feel that something is abnormal.

Is it possible that the four major sects have changed their nature?

Today, he heard Zhu Jianyang say that this matter was indeed unusual, and Lin Bai felt wary.

"How do I know this?" Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, "But it's a bit strange. They haven't had so many casual cultivators before."

Lin Bai: "You don't know?"

Jiang Xiaobai: "Yes!"

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, I thought you were a disciple of Jindan. Coming from a famous family, looking at Qiaoshan is like looking at palm prints. I never thought that I overestimated you. Forget it, I'll find someone else to ask." Lin Bai immediately scoffed.

"Haha." Jiang Xiaobai was not angry at all, "Are you still playing with me? I don't even care how much you weigh!"

She smiled and patted Lin Bai's arm, and said proudly: "These are all leftovers from playing when I was a child!"

Lin Bai was speechless.
