In late autumn, the maple forest in the mountains is ablaze with red, and the forest is full of desolate weather. Only around the Taoist temple, it is like spring all year round. Xiao Man is helping Master to set up a row of loofah stands, while Xiao Han is skillfully using it.

The rag strips tied the reed poles on the loofah stand one by one, and the three of them almost merged with the scenery on the top of the mountain.

"rustle……"

Amidst the sound of footsteps, a group of people from Yaowang Valley climbed to the top of the mountain. What appeared in front of them was a dilapidated Taoist temple. Next to it was a temporary alchemy room, an old thatched stove, and a vegetable garden next to the Taoist temple.

Inside, the three young masters and apprentices had already finished the loofah stand. Xu Mingan picked up a bundle of branches and was about to fix the eggplants and peppers that had grown very tall.

"Excuse me……"

Wearing a long blue dress, Sun Xingchun, who was extremely elegant and refined, walked in front. With a pair of big and smart eyes, he looked at the three busy masters and disciples. He cupped his fists and chuckled: "But Taoist Master Xu Ming'an?"

"ah?"

Xu Ming'an was stunned, and hurriedly put down the branch, straightened the old monk's robe, dusted the dirt on his body, and said with a sigh: "Poverty Xu Ming'an, what does this girl want from me?"

"Yao Wang Valley, the eldest daughter Sun Xingchun."

Sun Xingchun cupped his fists and smiled, and said: "This is my sister Sun Yunnuan, and this is Mr. Su Yuesu, the steward of Yaowang Valley. This time we went up the mountain to find the Taoist priest because we have an important matter to discuss with the Taoist priest."

"That's it..."

Xu Ming'an pursed his lips. Seeing that this group of people were well-dressed and full of spiritual energy. The realms of the first few people were even ridiculously high. Xu Ming'an couldn't detect the realms of these people. Presumably, this Yaowang Valley was also a famous mountain sect, so Xu Ming'an immediately

Walking out of the vegetable garden, he said: "Then please take a short rest in the Taoist temple, Xiaoman and Xiaohan, and pour water for the distinguished guests."

"Yes, Master!"

The two disciples rushed to the kitchen in a hurry. Sun Xingchun looked at Xiaohan, covered his mouth and smiled softly. This little fairy girl was very spiritual, just like her when she was a child.

After entering the Taoist temple, there was finally a place to shade the sun, but there were not enough chairs in the Taoist temple, so Su Yue and others politely just stood aside and let the two eldest ladies and the host Xu Ming

Just sit still and that's it.

Sun Xingchun pursed her red lips and said, "Recently, I heard that the Taoist Master has refined a Zhenyuan Pill that can help break through the realm. In fact, we at Yaowang Valley came here for this matter."

"oh?"

Xu Mingan frowned, and his heart pounded. How did the news get out? Could it be that the Du family brothers and sisters broke their word and revealed their whereabouts to the outside world? Now this group of people from Yaowang Valley actually went up the mountain, which is really troublesome.

.

"Taoist Master."

Sun Yunnuan smiled lightly and said: "We have no ill intentions. Yaowang Valley's intention is to cooperate with Guiguan. After all, the recipe for Zhen Yuan Dan has been lost for many years. Too many monks on our human mountain are stuck in the bottleneck."

, in the end we can only die or be defeated. If the Taoist Master is willing, our Yaowang Valley is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the prescription of Zhenyuan Dan."

"..."

Xu Mingan's expression was uncertain.

"Taoist Master."

Su Noi exuded an elegant aura. He cupped his fists at Xu Mingan and smiled, saying, "Is that Zhenyuan Pill really refined by the Taoist Priest?"

"..."

Xu Ming'an frowned. This Su Nod was a martial artist who had read books. Like Lin Zhao, he was a martial artist with a scholarly spirit. Unfortunately, Su Nod gave Xu Ming'an the feeling that there was a hint of sinisterness in this man's smile, and Lin Zhao

Zhao Ze is different. He treats people with sincerity and has a clear mind. His temperament is similar to Su Yu's but completely different.

Xu Ming'an was an honest man and could not be flustered. He frowned and said: "I refined it. However, this elixir recipe is a secret method passed down by the master. Now the master is not around, so I can't help but obey. I will not sell this elixir recipe."

of."

"ah?"

Sun Xingchuntan opened his mouth slightly, with a look of disappointment on his pretty face, and said softly: "Taoist Priest, if Yaowang Valley is willing to give out five hundred gold mullet coins, are you still unwilling to sell it? These five hundred gold coins

The money is enough to expand this Taoist temple ten times, and it is enough for you and your two disciples to live an excellent life for the rest of your life."

"No."

Xu Ming'an stood up, bowed his head, and said with a smile: "If all of you distinguished guests are willing to stay for dinner, Xu Ming'an will prepare lunch and make more rice. If you are not willing, please come back."

"..."

Su Noh's eyes were full of evil, but he said nothing.

Sun Xingchun sighed, stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Taoist Master, please think again. If you change your mind, please go to Yaowang Valley and let us know. We will come back with a heavy gift!"

"Okay." Xu Mingan nodded.

On the side, Sun Yunnuan frowned slightly and said: "Taoist Master, since you are not willing to sell the elixir recipe, what about the Yuan-Zhen Dan? Can the Yuan-Zhen Dan refined by the Taoist be sold to Yaowang Valley?"

"No."

Xu Ming'an shook his head again. He had made an appointment with Lin Zhao. Xu Ming'an would be responsible for refining the elixir. After the elixir was produced, Lin Zhao would take care of it. He was full of apologies and said: "First of all, I have just started to learn elixir refining. The chance of making the elixir is extremely low.

There are very few Zhenyuan Pills produced, and secondly, due to the sect’s restrictions, no one does business in the Taoist temple.”

"knew."

Sun Yunnuan pursed her red lips and said, "It's a pity, then let's leave it like this, Taoist priest, I'm sorry for bothering you."

"Feel sorry."

"knew."

Sun Xingchun gave up completely, but when he saw Gu Xiaohan, he still smiled and waved: "Xiaohan, come here."

"oh!"

Gu Xiaohan was not afraid of strangers and walked straight forward.

"Call me sister Xingchun."

Sun Xingchun put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "If you call me, I will give you an excellent gift."

"ah?"

Gu Xiaohan was stunned, is there such a thing in the world for a bloody mother to make money?!

"Sister Xingchun!"

She screamed extremely loudly.

"good."

Sun Xingchun nodded with a smile, touched Gu Xiaohan's little head, then took out a green hairpin, and said with a smile: "I bought this hairpin in the mountains of Furong Prefecture. It's not a good thing. It's a piece of hairpin."

It's just a magic weapon of inferior quality. I am destined to give it to you, so I will give it to you."

"Master..."

Gu Xiaohan didn't dare to stop and turned to look at Xu Ming'an.

"Taoist Master."

Sun Xingchun smiled and said: "I just feel that I am destined to Xiaohan. It has nothing to do with the business we are talking about today. This spiritual hairpin is of no use if I keep it here, so I gave it to Xiaohan as a small gift. She also likes it.

Seek the Tao to grow and become perfect.”

Xu Mingan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and then Gu Xiaohan happily accepted the spiritual hairpin.

Xu Ming'an sent everyone to the mountainside before leaving. Sun Xingchun and Sun Yunnuan looked back at the figure of the young Taoist priest, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. The mission assigned by their second uncle was not completed this time, but there was nothing they could do about it.

, they have also tried their best. Yaowang Valley has always done business in an open and honest manner, and cannot use any dark methods.

…

Snow-covered Tianchi, mountain top and back mountain of Bieyuan.

"Chichichi~~~"

One after another sword energy passed across the sky. Su Qingjiu, the master of Changming Mountain, personally used his sword to cut out pieces of flat ground on the hillside. Just after Su Qingjiu finished doing this, there was thunder in the air, and a mountain of earth was seen moving sideways. At the end of the day, there was a figure at the foot of the mountain, holding up the entire mountain. It was none other than Chen Ben. Most of the mountains behind the mountain top garden were stalagmite mountains. There was very little soil left in the mountain. Therefore, although the spiritual energy in the mountain was strong, the soil had to be adjusted outside.

"Sister Su!"

The moment Chen Ben threw Tushan down, he smiled and said, "It's up to you."

"a piece of cake."

Su Qingjiu raised his hand and pointed, and the White Fish, the flying sword of his life, whizzed out. In an instant, an entire mountain of earth was disintegrated in the air. Countless dust fell from the sky and was evenly distributed on the flat ground on the mountainside. , forming a fertile soil.

"keep going."

Above the red leaves of Feijian, Lin Zhao sat cross-legged on the sword light to control everything, and said to Zhi Zhi beside him: "Think about where the water comes from. Can the stream south of the mountain top be diverted for watering?"

"Can."

Zhi Zhi said: "There is no problem with the height. Should I ask Muzhen to lead the cavalry to dig ditches?"

"Need not."

Lin Zhaodao: "The entire snowy Tianchi is under the jurisdiction of Su Shanjun. The changes in terrain and landforms are just a piece of cake for Su Shanjun. Are you right, Su Shanjun?"

The voice of the mountain king in white came from a distance: "Yes, yes, yes, the mountain master is right."

On the side, the folding fan goddess Liu Liying, who was full of spiritual energy, said softly: "Sir, what are you doing?"

"Make terraces."
