Chapter 133 Rain Spirit
This breakthrough took too long.

At first, Huaying thought it would only take one month, at most two months.I never thought that it was almost the end of the year, and I had only taken the Qi-Entraining Pill for a few days in a row, and had risen to the fifth level of Qi training.

"Sigh, spiritual root aptitude has too much influence on cultivation, it is much more difficult than expected"

She sighed softly, got out of bed, walked to the window, and pushed the window open.

The snow blows outside the window, and the cold wind howls in.

Huaying shuddered, only glanced twice, and closed the window again.

There is no time to cultivate immortals, and the end of the cold does not know the years.

After several months of retreat, time seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.

Huaying couldn't help but lament the passing of time. Five or six years have passed since she left home, and she has already turned 15 years old. According to common sayings, she is already at her prime.

At this age, most of the elders in a girl's family will start to arrange marriage for them.

From a nine-year-old girl in a mountain village to the present, Huaying has experienced too much, so many joys and sorrows, and in the end, she is still alone.

"I don't know if there is a New Year talk in this fairy city." For a moment of melancholy, Huaying shook her head silently, talking to herself.

She hasn't gone out for a long time, and she can't wait to go outside for some air.

Closed the circle, took some items, and left the guest room.

Snow fell all over the city, and some monks could be seen clearing the snow and piling it up to both sides of the road.

In such a cold weather, even cultivators have to put on thick clothes to resist the wind and cold.

Huaying rubbed her hands while trotting along the road.She breathed in the cold air, her nose and mouth were red from the cold.

Perhaps it was because of the cold weather, there were not many monks on the streets in the city today, Huaying only met a few scattered along the way, and they all seemed in a hurry, as if they were going somewhere.

She didn't care, and went straight to the street stall market.

There were not many monks in the market, only less than half of the usual number, and even fewer buyers came to the market, almost invisible.

As soon as Huaying turned the corner, she saw the monks who had been meditating here all the year round and never left, and the stalls were already covered with thick snow.At first glance, she thought someone was idle and bored and built rows of snowmen here, it was really weird.

When the stall owners heard that someone was coming, they quickly shook their bodies, and the snowflakes fell down.

Through the sound of hawking to her, Hua Ying went straight into the market. However, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find the monk named Meng Bu.

"Strange, didn't he show up at the stall today?"

I was thinking of going to the other party's booth to find some spiritual grass seeds and returning, but I never thought that I would never see that person's figure, so my expectations fell through.

However, although Meng Bu did not find him, he met another acquaintance.

Huaying caught a glimpse of that familiar young figure from afar, walked up to her with a smile on her face, and asked:
"Sister Yu Ling, why did you come out to the stall in such a cold day?"

I haven't seen you in months, I miss you so much.

As one of the few friends Huaying knew in the Ancient Moon Fairy City, Liao Yuling, who was only twelve years old, was just as shy as the two when they first met. After that, he called out happily for a while:

"Sister Ying, long time no see, where have you been these past few months, I can't find you."

Huaying approached, first glanced at the few talismans placed on the booth of the other party, and then said with a smile: "I didn't go anywhere, I just practiced in seclusion for a while."

During the period when Huaying set up a stall to sell spirit grass and bigu pills, the two had met many times, and they were already very familiar with each other. At this moment, they didn't exchange more greetings, and chatted cordially like sisters.

"By the way, is your father back? I always heard you mention him earlier, but I haven't seen him until now."

"My father came back once, and he went to the mountains to collect medicine after a few days. He said he should try to come back before the Chinese New Year."

Mentioning her father, Liao Yuling lost her mood in an instant, her young face was filled with distress, "Sister Ying, it's so boring to be alone in the city, I want my father to take me to collect medicine, but he won't , and reprimanded me a few words."

Huaying knelt down, pinched her face, and comforted her: "Your father is also doing it for your own good. The mountains are so dangerous. Wouldn't it hurt you to take you there?"

"However, I am already a monk at the third level of Qi training, even if I encounter monsters, I can help!"

Liao Yuling clenched her fists tightly, with an expression of unwillingness.

Seeing this little girl's stubborn appearance, Huaying just thought it was funny, she shook her head and said, "Okay, you can help your father by selling talismans in the city. How is the business going?"

"Oh, no one bought talismans this month, it seems that one or two were sold in total."

Liao Yuling tilted her little head and counted with her fingers, "Three. Um. A total of three talismans were sold, and they were all bought by the same uncle monk. That uncle monk came three times and only bought one each time." Spiritual talisman. He is fat and kind, and treats me very well. Every time after buying the talisman, he would stand here and look at me with a smile for a long time before leaving. By the way, the monk uncle also said that he would invite me to his house next time. "

"."

The more Huaying listened, the more she felt that this was wrong. After thinking about it for a while, she seemed to realize something, and said eagerly, "Don't go, children can't just go home with someone they don't know, do you hear me?"

Liao Yuling raised her innocent face, blinked her eyes and asked, "What do you mean, sister Ying, is that monk uncle a bad person?"

"I don't know if he's a bad guy or not."

Huaying didn't explain so much to her, and said with a depressed face: "In short, if you feel bored, go to your sister's place to play, and you must not go home with people you don't know, understand?"

Really, this silly girl's father is too irresponsible, isn't he worried about being abducted by human traffickers if he leaves the child in the city without entrusting him with anything?
"Oh, I see, sister Ying, I will follow your orders."

Liao Yuling nodded with a half understanding, and agreed.

Seeing her so well-behaved and obedient, Huaying nodded in relief, then stood up, looked around, pondered for a moment and said:

"Sister Yu Ling, let's close the stall today. I don't think anyone will come to buy talismans in such a cold day."

"Wow wow wow."

Liao Yuling agreed so quickly, Huaying couldn't help but smile, "Let's go, go to your house, my sister has grown some vegetables, and I happen to use your stove to cook some food."

"Uh-huh."

The two quickly closed the booth and walked towards the west of the city together.

After they walked away, after a while, a fat middle-aged monk suddenly came here. He looked at the empty booth and stood there, not knowing what he was thinking.
