Mortal Bones

Yunlu Mountain, Xifeng Pavilion.

This is one of the places where Qingxuan Sect is responsible for handling the affairs of the outer disciples.

"Fairy Linglong, the naturalization of this little brother has been settled. Please keep this bronze mirror and this jade slip to pass on the merits."

In Xifeng Pavilion, a gray-haired old man handed a wooden box containing a bronze mirror and a jade slip made of white jade to Linglong in front of him.

"Taiping, please keep this bronze mirror. It is not only proof of your identity as a registered disciple of the outer sect, but also a magical instrument for you to listen to the lectures of the elders of the sect in the future."

Linglong first handed the bronze mirror and jade slips to Taiping.

"That's right, the outer disciples cannot receive personal guidance from their teachers like the inner disciples. They can only watch the inner Mormon elders' lectures from this bronze mirror on the first and fifteenth day of each month."

The old man from Xifeng Pavilion added with a smile.

"What about this jade slip?"

Xu Taiping nodded, then picked up the jade slip and asked.

"This is a jade slip that conveys the power. There is a Qi refining method in it. When using it, you only need to concentrate on it and put it between your eyebrows."

It was the old man who spoke.

"That's right, there are detailed instructions in the jade slips about the use of bronze mirrors and some precepts that need to be paid attention to after getting started. You can use them after you settle down."

Linglong added at this time.

"good."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"Master Liu Pavilion, do you still have a medicinal garden that needs someone to take care of it?"

Linglong looked at the master of Xifeng Pavilion.

"this……"

Pavilion Master Liu's expression froze.

In the outer sect, the easiest place to earn merit is undoubtedly the elixir garden. Not only is the life easy, but you can also earn more merit.

"Pavilion Master Liu, this child is a distant relative of mine. If you can help with this matter, I, Zhao Linglong of the Seventh Peak, owe you a favor."

Zhao Linglong said very seriously.

Hearing this, Pavilion Master Liu's eyes suddenly lit up.

He knew Zhao Linglong's identity. He was a direct disciple of the Seventh Peak Master and would definitely have a bright future. Her favor was very valuable.

"Since Fairy Linglong has spoken, I naturally want to help with this."

Pavilion Master Liu pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Hearing this, Zhao Linglong breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Taiping, who was on the side, cast a grateful look at Zhao Linglong. He silently remembered this kindness in his heart.

"To be fair, Fairy, there is indeed a medicinal garden among the mountains to the west of Yunlu Mountain under the jurisdiction of Xifeng Pavilion that no one is looking after."

As the Liu Pavilion Master spoke, he pointed to a map on the wall, and then stroked his beard and said: "The place is in Yunqi Valley, three thousand miles away from Xifeng Pavilion. It is called Qingzhuju. In addition to three acres of elixirs, there are Outside the garden, there is a ready-made courtyard for you to live and practice. "

…

Half an hour later.

The entrance of Xifeng Pavilion.

"Pavilion Master, didn't a monk report before that there was an evil spirit in Qingzhu Residence? You arranged that little guy there. If something happens, we can't explain it to Fairy Linglong, right?"

Looking at Fairy Linglong and Xu Taiping, who were riding away on the crane, a steward of Xifeng Pavilion looked at the old pavilion master next to him with some worry.

"It's just catching wind and shadow. Several disciples from the Four Peaks have checked it out a few days ago. There is nothing abnormal."

Pavilion Master Liu shook his head disapprovingly.

"Besides, even if something goes wrong, just a disciple from outside the mountain will die. It would be good if half of these registered disciples from the outer sect who are newly admitted every year can survive in the mountain. If every one of them dies, I am responsible, should I still be the master of the pavilion? "

He then rolled his eyes at the steward.

"What the Pavilion Master said is that I worry too much."

The steward stepped back with an annoyed look on his face.

…

Another half hour later.

Qingzhuju.

"Fairy Linglong, Qingzhuju has arrived."

The crane, which spoke human words, flicked its wings slightly, and Linglong and Mrs. Xu landed steadily on the ground.

After Xu Taiping stood firm, he raised his head and looked forward.

I saw a small courtyard with mud walls sitting quietly in a green bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves scattered on the ground were almost submerging the threshold.

"Xiao Taiping, you have to rely on yourself from now on."

Linglong looked at the sky, and then said to Xu Taiping with some reluctance.

The time agreed with Elder Black Dragon has come.

"Thank you, Sister Linglong. I will definitely practice hard and strive to reach the seventh peak as soon as possible."

Xu Taiping's immature face showed a firm look that was inconsistent with his age.

"Sister, I believe in you."

Linglong raised her hand and touched Xu Taiping's face with a smile. Then she took out a bone flute and a money bag from her sleeves and handed them to Xu Taiping:

"This bone flute can be used to attract nearby spiritual birds. In the purse is the thirty merit coins that Xifeng Pavilion gives to each new disciple. If you have urgently needed items, you can spend one merit coin to attract nearby soul birds. The spirit bird will take you to buy it. However, these thirty merit coins cannot be used indiscriminately, because if nothing else happens, the medicine garden in your backyard will be abandoned, and you will have to use this money to buy seeds and grain. "

"I won't use it indiscriminately, Sister Linglong."

Xu Taiping nodded and took the bone flute and money bag.

"Xiao Taiping, see you again when we are destined, take care of me."

Linglong, who had sat on the crane again, smiled and waved to Xu Taiping.

"Goodbye, Sister Linglong."

Xu Taiping also waved to Linglong.

"Hoo!"

As soon as the words fell, the crane flapped its wings, and a gust of wind rushed into the sky.

"Xiao Taiping, I hope we can see each other again."

Linglong on the crane looked at the figure below that was getting smaller and smaller, and sighed leisurely.

She grew up in Qingxuan Sect and knew very well that only one of these outer disciples with only white spirit bones could eventually join the Seven Peaks, and most of them could not pass the Seven Peaks selection within the three-year period.

...

"Squeak..."

As soon as Linglong left, Xu Taiping pushed open the gate and walked in with big strides, and stopped when he reached the medicine garden in the backyard.

"Just like what Sister Linglong said, this medicine garden is indeed abandoned."

Looking at the medicine garden full of weeds and a wasteland in front of him, Xu Taiping muttered softly.

But he was in a hurry to come to the medicine garden, not to confirm this point.

Xu Taiping carefully took out a wooden box from his arms, and then took out a small porcelain bottle from it, and then poured out the soybean seed from the small porcelain bottle.

That's right, this is the soybean seed his grandfather left for him.

"Grandpa said that when we plant this seed in the fairy mountain, we will get another great opportunity."

He whispered as he squatted on the ground, dug a hole in the soil of the medicine garden with his hands, and then planted the soybean.

"Since the pill is real, it means that this seed is also real."

As Xu Taiping said this, he dug some more soil on the ground with his little hands and buried the soybean seed very carefully.
