Chapter 10: Call out to Shifu's wife one more time and listen

  Fa Bao arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, his gentle face turned into a stern and majestic demeanor. He lightly knocked on the door and shouted in a loud voice: "Master's wife, open the door!"

  The magic array on the gate fluctuated slightly, and the people in the yard could easily know who the visitor was without using their divine sense. The magic array also had a certain defensive ability. If it were a treasure now at the peak of building its foundation, wanting to break open the magic array on the gate would probably not make any noise for a while, at least not until a cultivator with full power attacked could thoroughly destroy the magic array.

  "Call out to the teacher's wife again!" A bright and cheerful voice, like a skylark, came from within the small courtyard, filled with the vigor of youth. Just listening to this voice made one feel carefree and exhilarated.

  Fa Bao was busy and in a somewhat flattering tone, cleverly called out "Shifu" several times in succession, while inside the room, Yao's silvery laughter was particularly moving.

  "The pill will be fine soon, you go and watch it." Yoyo said from the inner room, continuing to clean up Ruo's room, and by the way, dig out some of Ruo's small secrets to satisfy her curiosity. She didn't show up every time Ruo went out, but she would come to clean up, sometimes seeing the interesting little things Ruo made with his own hands, and then domineeringly declare ownership, and happily and coquettishly put her hands on her hips, staring at Ruo with big, shining eyes, saying "Yours is mine!"

  "Ah, okay!" Fa Bao readily agreed. In the small courtyard, there was a simple alchemy room where the Great Golden Elixir Pill was produced. Because of its large size, it took two days to complete each time. Fa Bao would always arrive at the exact moment, as Yu Zui didn't have the patience to wait by the furnace.

  Fa Bao walked familiarly into the simple alchemy room, where a solitary bronze tripod was placed, with a raging fire that showed no signs of dwindling. The walls around were made of the hardest rock, and one could faintly see metal scratches on these rocks that had been smoked to a slight blackness, deep and chaotic, as if a sword master had unleashed an immature "Thousand Swords Return" technique here.

  Fa Bao carefully watched the bronze furnace, his muscles tense all over. There were no masters here to practice Wan Jian Gui Zong, and those scratches were made by flying metal when the furnace exploded! It's imaginable that if Fa Bao hadn't run out in time during the explosion, he would have lost his life. However, to preserve the efficacy of Da Da Da Da Li Jin Gang Pill, he had to quickly find it after the furnace exploded, put it in a specially made bronze treasure box, and bring it back to share with Fa Zi's disciples.

  Fa Bao stared intently at the furnace, his eyes not daring to blink. After about half a stick of incense time, he only saw the flames inside the furnace jumping violently a few times. Fa Bao's eyelids involuntarily jumped along with it a few times, and his slightly stout body burst out with strong mechanical ability, turning around and fleeing for the door, quickly pouncing forward and falling to the ground with his head in his hands.

  Although the rocks blocked the way, they didn't hurt anyone outside. However, the lessons of the past were still deeply etched in his mind. As soon as he thought about the terrifying scene when the entire alchemy room exploded, Fa Bao's face turned pale, and the rumbling sound behind him made his whole body tremble. But he quickly reacted and rushed into the alchemy room, putting a brain-sized pill that emitted heat and spiritual energy from the center of the furnace into a bronze treasure box that had been prepared in advance. With great effort, Fa Bao coughed and ran out of the smoke-filled alchemy room, looking extremely disheveled. He hugged the bronze treasure box tightly, feeling its heavy weight inside, and his heart felt incredibly satisfied.

  This is what I call a pill, big, very big, extremely big, compared to those in small jade bottles, it's unknown how many times bigger, although not quite round, but one big covers up all the ugliness, it's because the pill is too big, when forming Dan, ordinary bronze furnace cauldron can't withstand the huge spiritual power fluctuation, so it will explode, the name of Dada Big Force Gold Pill is good, Fa Bao thinks that a few more "big"s should be added, this way can show the strength of the pill, but adding a few more "big"s would be too cumbersome, can only give up.

  A satisfied Fahua tidied up the messy alchemy room, bid farewell to Yao who was dazed in the wine house, and walked towards their residence with a bronze treasure chest in her arms. She thought about the distribution of the elixir, it wasn't an easy task to distribute it fairly among more than 200 disciples. Perhaps she should follow Master Yizui's suggestion and divide the pills into several thousand portions?

  The drunkard's small courtyard was adjacent to the Zen residence of Hai Lao and Shang, a venerable old monk. Today, this serene and elegant residence had several noble guests, if One Drunk were here, he would have to open his mouth wide with wonder, for the visitors were none other than the owner of the brocade ship that was capsized by Da Tou Yu Xiao Pang, Gu Ming Yue and her maid Tao Hua, as well as Jin An who stood beside them with a non-existent presence.

  "A great master of the sea, my father king has entrusted me to greet you specially when he came. This humble gift is not enough to show respect." Gu Mingyue's eyebrows and eyes were filled with smiles, this elegant and noble demeanor couldn't help but make people's hearts move. Jin An looked at Gu Mingyue's dignified and elegant manner in dealing with people and things, and also revealed a smile of great comfort between his eyebrows.

  "Please." A sea of old monks, Zen law is profound, without even lifting an eyebrow, serving his tea art, one hand like a ghost took over the jade box handed over by Gu Mingyue and put it on the table beside him, without affecting the rhythm of his pouring tea at all. Just looking at this cloud-like skill makes people feel happy and satisfied, with a dignified appearance of a high-ranking monk. However, looking at his casual attitude towards the thick gifts given by Gu Mingyue's father, the king, one can see his temperament.

  Gu Mingyue didn't pretend, her red lips slightly opened, took a sip, and naturally revealed a surprised gaze in her eyes. It had to be said that the tea art of Hai Laohe Shang was indeed very good, especially with a hint of subtle and ethereal Zen intention hidden in the tea water, which added a few points to the flavor of this tea.

  "To be honest, I came this time to take a look at my fiancé with my own eyes. My father said that the son of King Liang is under your tutelage, Master Yihai. What do you think?"

  However, Haiyi heard about Gu Mingyue's question and remained calm and composed, looking at Gu Mingyue with a flat gaze to show respect. He didn't put Gu Mingyue's probe in his heart at all, but he had already turned over several ideas in his mind. As for who was the clearest about Liang Zhi's situation, it was naturally him. When Liang Zhi was born, King Liang held a grand banquet to celebrate with guests from all sides, and Haiyi personally went to congratulate him. Gu Lian Mountain was not suitable for practicing Qi or refining his body due to his weak physique, and he was destined to have no progress in his cultivation path. Haiyi was grateful to King Liang for his great kindness to Gu Lian Mountain, and after discussing with several other fellow disciples of the same generation, he brought Liang Zhi to Gu Lian Mountain.

  One sea still remembers that day, he held hands with a few parts of the drunkenness and walked into the Buddhist hall. At that moment, the entire Buddhist hall was shining brightly, and the ancestors of Huashan Mountain, who had been sealed for thousands of years, personally descended from the mouth of the Buddha to declare: "The Drunken One is the Golden Body of Ten Thousand Generations!"

  He only told Yizui about this when he was fourteen years old, but Yizui didn't understand Wanshi Jinshen at all, and Haiye didn't explain it either. So Yizui might not have taken it to heart himself. Over the years, Haiye has given Yizui a lot of freedom, trying to make him naturally inclined towards goodness through subtle influence. And Yizui's abilities have been just as Haiye had hoped - every time he has an epiphany, his progress is rapid and profound, with the Buddhist teachings seemingly etched into his bones.

  During this time, Yao Yao, who was adopted by Hai, also fell in love with Zui. The two little ones can be considered a pair of childhood sweethearts. Hai is delighted to see them like this, so when Gu Mingyue asked him about his evaluation of Zui, the old monk Hai, with a slightly dark belly, had already thought out his response and calmly said: "Zui has a deep Buddhist fate, is extremely intelligent, and has made great contributions to the development of Huashan in recent years. He's doing very well on Huashan."

  The highest level of deception is to tell the truth. Yihai Lao Shang said it with sincerity, but deliberately avoided mentioning Yizui's cultivation issues, as if intentionally sidestepping the point. However, he inadvertently highlighted that Yizui indeed had no future in cultivation. This sounded reasonable to Gu Mingyue and Jin An, and if Yihai had praised Yizui's cultivation as profound, it would have only raised their suspicions. After all, many Yuan Ying cultivators had confirmed Yizui's talent back then. With just a few words, Yihai Lao Shang dug a hole for Gu Mingyue. In the cultivation world, strength is the ultimate truth. As Liangguo was experiencing turmoil, Yizui's weak abilities made him an unwise choice. Gu Mingyue's most intelligent decision would be to abandon him immediately, and it would be best if she could annul the engagement right away. That way, Yizui and Yao could be together smoothly.

  Gu Mingyue was not only surprised that Liang Wang's son could be given a dharma name starting with the character "one", but also felt a sense of disappointment and relief. She thought about the great kindness Liang Wang had shown to Huilian Mountain in the past, and how the weighty dharma name "One Drunkenness" was directly glossed over by her. Moreover, Yihai clearly told her that One Drunkenness was doing well on Huilian Mountain, which alleviated many of her worries, so that she would not be burdened by the reputation of being unfeeling and unrighteous in the future.

  While on the vast South Sea, Drunken is unaware that his nominal fiancée has been misled by an old sea monk. He's tilting his head to pour the last drop of wine from the gourd into his mouth, with a faint blush on his face and an unfinished expression. In his mind, he's thinking: Should I buy a Wine Immortal Gourd? Only that it's too expensive, and this way, he'll have to buy a lot more wine, which will make him go bankrupt. He patted the small purse still containing many crystal stones with a satisfied look of entanglement on his face.

  The Wine God's Gourd is a three-piece magic treasure that can be large or small. When enlarged to its maximum size, it can be compared to a small boat and can even be used as a boat in the water. Compared to the wine gourd with a spell array carved on it by Yizui, its capacity has increased by more than just a little bit. It is indeed an essential item for seasoned drinkers. Of course, if Yizui buys inferior wine, buying several hundred jars would not cost much crystal stone. However, after all these years, the taste buds have become picky. Although the usual drinks are not top-notch fine wines, they are at least mid-range.

  Carelessly took out a handful of Wufangzhai's delicious food balls from the small purse, gave one to the pirate and Xiaozixuan, ate two herself, and gave the rest to the big eater Xiao Pang.

  Every time at this moment is Xiao Pang's happiest time, having just swallowed a large handful of nourishing pills, his whole body warm and cozy, he can immediately eat many delicious Five Fragrance Shop food pellets. This kind of enjoyment, where is it comparable to the humble 1,000 immortal fish? Moreover, this time the drunken purchase was red braised meat flavored food pellets, compared to vegetarian flavored food pellets, Xiao Pang naturally prefers meat flavored ones.

  Xiao Zi Xuan narrowed her eyes and licked her small mouth, savoring the taste of the delicious food ball. She was very curious about how Wu Fang Zhai used spices and Ling Gu to create the braised pork flavor of the food ball, it was really amazing, especially imagining the attraction of this food ball to the monks.

  In the midst of thinking, "Boom" a loud noise, Xiao Zixuan almost lost her balance, fortunately, Yi Jiu grabbed her hand in time, otherwise she would have fallen into the sea and become a drowned pig. Yi Jiu patted his forehead with his palm, looking helpless, and a voice in his heart was roaring: "Xiao Pang, dare you be even more stupid? How many times have we crashed into this reef?" The pirate also shook his head and wagged his brain in a humanized manner, feeling a sense of superiority over Xiao Pang, and proudly barked twice.

  The big-headed fish, Dizzy Seven or Eight, continued to swim forward with a dizzy head, and for it, bumping into something was not a big deal at all. Who knows if Little Fatty's iron-head skill was practiced in this way.

  Begging for sharing
