Longevity begins with Zongmen handyman

Chapter 23 Out
night.

The moon star is sparse, and the silvery light passes through the dense leaves, sprinkled spots of light in the forest.

The Spirit Beast Mountain Range is very quiet, except for the occasional calls of some spirit beasts that can be heard from afar.

"Li An, how did you meet sister Xu?"

Tan Qingxue sat on a crossbar and seemed to be quite bored asking Li An.

Li An was leaning against a dense tree and was resting with his eyes closed. Hearing this, he opened his eyes and glanced at Tan Qingxue.

Why would the other party suddenly care about this?

"Sister Qi, Senior Sister Xu and I met because we sold rice once."

He spoke calmly, but he was thinking in his heart.

"Sister Xu has been telling me that you are smart and very alert... You are the first person who can make sister Xu praise so much."

Under the moonlight, Tan Qingxue's pretty face looked very beautiful, but her eyes were also like moonlight, as if she wanted to penetrate people's hearts:

"You are also the luckiest person I have ever met, even Yuan Chuncao..."

She paid attention to Li An, and said in her heart that today I must show you your true colors!

Let you hide your clumsiness in front of me!

Li An was alert, Tan Qingxue had been ignoring him all this time, and now she wanted to test him?

What kind of flaws were exposed?This is unlikely.

It seems that Xu Qiuhui and Tan Qingxue should have said something.

He thought for a while, and immediately said: "It's all thanks to Senior Sister Xu's suggestion."

While talking, he took out the talisman pen that Xu Qiuhui sold him at the beginning, and sighed softly, "I don't know how Senior Sister Xu is doing in the inner sect now..."

He gently stroked the talisman pen, as if he cherished it very much, and couldn't help but said: "Senior Sister Tan, Senior Sister Xu...has she really mentioned me to you?"

There seemed to be some joy in the words.

Tan Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized... This Li An, does he like Senior Sister Xu?

This is quite normal, sister Xu is the proud daughter of heaven in the sect, of course there are many people who like her.

"Sister Tan?"

"Oh... yes, she mentioned you."

"That's great... I remember that Senior Sister Xu likes to eat the second-cooked Lingmi from Lingzhi Mountain, and she also likes Qi-invigorating charms. Can I ask Senior Sister Tan to send some to me later?"

The topic was successfully diverted.

Shortly after.

"Senior Sister Tan, I'm going to check around."

Li An got up and left.

But Tan Qingxue couldn't help but feel a little complicated. After the chat just now, she found that Li An seemed to know Sister Xu better than her...

When mentioning Xu Qiuhui, Li An's words were sincere and meticulous, and at the same time revealed the inferiority and helplessness of a low-level disciple in this regard.

After all, what kind of person is Senior Sister Xu, an inner disciple with a bright future.

Where's Ang Lee?The aptitude above the talisman is mediocre, and after so many years, it is still the third level of Qi training...

It's just a fool's dream.

"Senior Sister Xu also told me that Li An is so experienced in dealing with people. Maybe it's just because Li An is always careful to please..."

She couldn't help shaking her head, and suddenly felt that it wasn't her fault, but Senior Sister Xu's fault. Li An is a very honest person...

……

And in the woods.

Ang Lee was thinking.

Tomorrow, I have to find a reason to leave Tan Qingxue and the others.

Just now, he used some chatting skills and scheming to divert the topic. After all, he had many wives and concubines in his previous life, and he is not inexperienced with women.

But if he continued to contact, he was worried.

……

In the early morning, the chirping of birds spread throughout the mountains and forests along with the rising sun.

"Go to Cold Mist Forest today, the place where the black-needled giant ape once appeared."

Tan Qingxue opened her mouth, and they set off immediately.

The cold mist forest is full of cold camphor trees, and the cold camphor trees themselves have spiritual poison. The poisonous gas emitted by the entire forest day and night directly forms a layer of mist all over the forest, and no one dares to enter it on weekdays.

Tan Qingxue took out the detoxification pill, and distributed one to each of them.

This can't help but surprise Li An. Tan Qingxue really spent a lot of money for this action. Although the detoxification pills are not available, each one costs about ten spirit stones.

His Life Seed had its own detoxification function, but he remained expressionless and took the detoxification pill.

"It shouldn't be here."

Li An looked around and sniffed the smell in the air carefully.

The feces of the black-needled giant ape were extremely stinky, and in this hot and humid environment, it would radiate far away, but he didn't smell it.

That's why he dared to follow inside with confidence.

"Hey, this is the footprint of the black-needled giant ape!"

Now that some footprints were found under a thick old tree.

"Parasite Spirit Vine!"

Li An happily looked at the bushes of this thick old tree. From the blue vines, rooted in the old tree, it has already produced a lot of blue fruits.

"There are so many first-grade spiritual fruits!"

Jiang You was pleasantly surprised, and immediately climbed up the tree and took down all the spiritual fruits.

A total of six spirit stones were shared equally because everyone discovered them together. Li An got one, and Tan Qingxue gave him ten spirit stones at the same time.

"It seems that the black-needled giant ape came here just to eat this parasitic spirit vine... Sure enough, this beast is very sensitive to elixir!"

Cao Zhirou couldn't help but speak.

Although the black-needled giant ape has not been found yet, they are all motivated.

They turned back, but just as they walked out of the cold mist forest, a voice came from the front:
"Hey, so it's Junior Sister Tan from Futang!"

I saw seven or eight young disciples waiting outside the forest, the leader of them was a rather handsome young man with a small furnace pattern embroidered on the left chest of his robe.

Alchemy disciple!
"Brother Qingyuan,"

Tan Qingxue frowned slightly, "Why are you here?"

Qingyuan smiled: "We are looking for the black-needled giant ape...Junior Sister Tan, you are not the same as us, are you?"

Tan Qingxue's heart moved, "No...we are looking for other elixir, senior brother Qingyuan, have you found the clue of the black-needled giant ape?"

Qingyuan shook his head: "No, the black-needled giant ape is very cautious. It should have reached the maturity stage of the second-grade elixir, so it hid it."

"Junior Sister Qingxue, you just came out of the Cold Mist Forest. I guess you should use the detoxification pill to suppress the poison. The detoxification pill is not effective, and the toxin will still stay in your body."

"I have some poisonous pills here, so I'll give them to a few."

He stepped forward with a smile, took out a small bottle, and handed it to Tan Qingxue.

Tan Qingxue's eyes were surprised, "Brother Qingyuan, the poison pill is very valuable, I'd better give you the spirit stone..."

Qingyuan smiled and said, "Junior Sister Tan is out of sight. The reason why I gave you the Huadu Pill is that I hope that when you find the black-needled giant ape, you can just let us know."

Tan Qingxue thought for a while and said, "Okay, thank you very much."

She took the pill, turned around and left with Li An and others.

not far.

"Qingxue, Qingyuan is so generous, it's not normal..." Cao Zhirou reminded.

"Yes, I thought so too."

Tan Qingxue directly took out the Huadu Pill, and then casually threw it in the grass on the side. Even though the Huadu Pill is quite precious, one must be careful in this retail mountain range.

Li An couldn't help shaking his head secretly, the moment Tan Qingxue took the bottle, he had already been tricked.

The problem is not Huadu Pill, but the body of the bottle!

It should be coated with a colorless liquid medicine, and the smell is very light. In the mountains and forests, the smell of rotting vegetation, bird and animal droppings, etc., is not noticed by ordinary cultivators.

Although Li An couldn't guess what the liquid medicine was, he noticed that from now on, Tan Qingxue, a hunter, had become the bait of the alchemy hall!
You can no longer follow Tan Qingxue and others.

"Hey, there is a miscellaneous spirit grass!"

Suddenly, Li An pointed to the front, and saw a small stream flowing through the forest, flying down from the cliff in the forest, and there was a green miscellaneous spirit grass in the middle of the cliff.

"I'll get it."

Li An opened his mouth excitedly, ran over immediately, and carefully climbed down the stone wall.

"Li An, it's too dangerous, it's unnecessary!"

Tan Qingxue frowned to remind.

Li An is so petty, if she really delays things, she still has to go to the next place!

"I'll be soon..."

Li An quickly climbed down. Suddenly, his feet slipped and he let out a scream. The whole person rolled down the cliff slope, and his figure was quickly covered by trees.

"Li An!"

The few people standing on the cliff were surprised.

Tan Qingxue was even more anxious, and hurried forward, but the cliff was too steep, and it was difficult to go down for a while, so she could only stand on it and call, but no one responded.

"This kid is doing it on his own... With his third-level qi training, if he falls from here, he probably won't be able to survive."

Jiang You opened his mouth and said with some sarcasm: "Being greedy for small profits and forgetting your life, after all, you are a handyman, and you will kill yourself."

"It will take at least an hour for us to go around to the bottom of the cliff, and we may not be able to find him... Qingxue, there is no need."

Cao Zhirou also said: "If he is not dead, he must be seriously injured, which will only hinder our plan. If he is dead, what's the use of finding him? We should go to Laotengpo as planned."

Tan Qingxue was a little conflicted, mainly because now that Qingyuan and the others were also looking for the black-needled giant ape, she had to hurry up.

"Li An!"

Standing on the cliff slope, Tan Qingxue yelled, and the voice echoed in the mountains.

After staying for a moment, she finally made up her mind: "Let's go first, and come to him when I come back."

Although she had a brief exchange and relationship with Li An, Li An's life and death should not be taken seriously by her.

"It's a pity, the tree Ganoderma lucidum and the parasitic spirit vine fruit... Let's look at it later."

Jiang You also whispered something.

……

And long after they left.

At 150 meters from the cliff slope, Li An held a star dagger in his right hand and pierced deeply into the stone wall.

He calmly used his left hand to swing across the star dagger, and the palm of his hand was bloody immediately. Regardless of the pain, he grabbed the cliff with his hand and recorded it, and then suddenly exerted force with his right arm. In an instant, he was pulled by him and rolled down the cliff, while he used his strength to jump up a small gentle slope.

Running the power of the seed of life, the wound on the palm of the hand quickly healed.

This stone rushed down the cliff, and it was still stained with blood, which would create traces of someone being injured and rolled down, which ordinary people would not be able to see.

But Li An still didn't climb up, but waited for a long time.

About half an hour later, with his extremely strong ears, he finally heard a human voice whispering:

"It seems that one of them fell from here?"

"It's hard to survive if you fall from here."

Someone is talking.

"We have to make sure that no one survives, otherwise when the sect investigates, it will inevitably show their feet...Qin Wei, go around the bottom of the cliff, if he is still alive, kill him!"

This is that Qingyuan's voice!
After the order was finished, the voice quickly disappeared.

After a quarter of an hour, after confirming that the visitor had left, Li An quickly walked up the cliff.

Carefully, he used the Fate Seed to hide his aura, searched for it, and found the Huadu Pill bottle discarded by Tan Qingxue in the grass on one side.

He didn't pick it up in a hurry, but opened the storage bag, took out a pile of first-level middle-grade spirit talismans and star daggers from the storage bag, put them in his sleeve pocket, and then used the storage bag as a glove to pick up Picked up the bottle and rubbed it several times in my hands!

"It's a pity that my tree Ganoderma lucidum and parasitic spirit vine fruit..."

He was in great pain, but this was the end of the matter, and there was no other way.

After finishing all this, he stood up, urinated at the side, then tore off a corner of his robe, wrapped a layer of soil wet with urine, and then carefully pushed the antidote pill bottle into the soil with a branch.

Tie the corner of this garment, making sure it is sealed, and tuck it into the sleeve.

Only then did he carefully carry the storage bag to avoid getting the breath on the storage bag, touched the edge of the cliff again, and threw the storage bag down the cliff.
