MTL - I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals-Chapter 167 not shallow

  Chapter 167 The relationship is not shallow

  The first batch of monks from Jinyun Valley included Zhang Tieshan and Lin Lu.

   There is no explicit statement in the letter, but Lu Changan can see hints from Zhang Tieshan's detailed description.

  As for Zhao Siyao, he may be among the subsequent batches of expedition monks.

   As expected.

  A few days later, Lin Lu came to visit with gifts and brought more details.

   "Xiao Lu, you are too out of touch, you don't need to bring such a heavy gift."

  In the cave mansion, Lu Changan received the gifts from Lin Lu Xiaojing, including second-grade spirit wine, tea, animal food, etc.

   "You can't do this next time. If you have the heart, come to Xiaoguifeng to sit around when you have time, and just bring some souvenirs."

  He had a slightly reproachful expression, and his words were not polite.

  During the war, Lu Chang'an earned a lot of spirit stones and was very rich.

  Lin Lu is not that rich. For example, the gift of filial piety this time is more expensive than usual, and it is not a small expense for him.

  This is not counting Lin Lu's contribution when he was promoted to Foundation Establishment, and his visits in previous years.

   "Uncle Lu, my nephew is sincerely grateful this time, which is unusual. Because of your guidance and the Jade Qing Pill, my nephew was successfully promoted to the middle stage of foundation establishment..."

  Lin Lu spoke respectfully and explained why.

  When he came from Huanglong Xiancheng, Lin Lu had contacts with Lu Changan.

  During decades, he noticed that this Uncle Lu was not simple, especially his unchanging state of mind and perseverance, and his steady progress step by step, which is admirable.

  As the saying goes, knowing is easier than doing, everyone understands the principle of practice. However, there are very few monks who can last for decades and remain unchanged for a hundred years.

   Recounted the past for a while.

  The two quickly chatted about the topic of Zongmen's battle, which was also related to Lin Lu's intention to come this time.

   "My nephew took the initiative to apply and was included in the first batch of expeditions."

   Lin Lu said calmly.

  Lu Chang'an didn't expect that Lin Lu asked for the expedition on his own initiative, and he didn't approve of it very much, but he didn't say anything to stop him.

   "It is certainly an opportunity to fight the Feng Kingdom. However, the journey is long and the battle situation is unpredictable, especially for the monks who are leading the battle. Nephew Lin must be careful and take care of himself."

  He sighed softly and warned.

  In the previous two lives, Lu Changan had witnessed the great chaos in the sects of the world of cultivating immortals.

  Especially in the second life, his cultivating family was forced to be involved, and many members of the clan were killed or injured.

   "My nephew understands the truth of this. However, this is already the best choice now..."

   Lin Lu smiled wryly.

  Although he has the idea of ​​fighting and fighting for the Dao of Longevity, the situation of the first batch of monks who take the lead is not clear and the risk is relatively high.

  Subsequently, Lu Changan learned that Jin Yungu selected the first batch of monks to fight, giving priority to the young and strong with low potential.

  Young monks with potential, or those with outstanding skills, will be taken care of.

  As for the elders, who have dedicated their lives to the sect, they lack drive and blood, second only to the young and strong with low potential.

  If you take the initiative to apply, the sect will have additional rewards, which can leave a good impression in the eyes of the higher-ups.

  Of course, monks with an elder background can use various methods to avoid going to the front line to fight.

  For example, transfer to a certain place to guard for ten years to avoid the vortex of war.

  Even if you go to the front line, take charge of logistics, supervise battles, etc., the risk is much smaller.

   "...Even if my nephew doesn't take the initiative to apply, there is a high probability that he will be selected in the first batch."

  After hearing the end, Lu Changan could not deny that Lin Lu's decision was the best choice out of desperation.

  As a young monk, he has no potential, no background, and no outstanding skills.

  Rather than being passively dispatched, it is better to take the initiative.

   "This time I came here, my nephew sold a lot of items, and got help from the younger generations to accumulate a fortune of spirit stones. Under the guidance of Uncle Zhang, I went to Uncle Lu to buy supplies for protecting the road."

  Lin Lu said.

  Nowadays, the price of war preparation materials is soaring, it is difficult to buy high-quality talismans at reasonable prices.

  Lu Changan inquired about Lin Lu's Lingshi budget.

  After deliberation, Lu Changan sold Lin Lu's eight upper-middle-grade talismans and a repaired second-tier middle-grade javelin puppet.

  The price is lower than the current market price.

   "Xiao Lu, if you go to the battlefield, you must not only be wary of the enemy's monks, but also your fellow disciples, you must also be vigilant."

   Before leaving, Lu Changan instructed.

   "This talisman is Uncle Lu's wish, so please accept it."

  Lu Changan took out a second-tier top escape talisman and handed it to Lin Lu.

  He also doesn't want to honor his juniors who have been there for many years, gone forever.

   "Uncle Lu, please take care too, my nephew wishes you a long road to immortality, and you will be on the road of knotting alchemy."

  Lin Lu took the talisman, the corners of his eyes were slightly rosy, he bowed his hands and flew away through the air.

  Watching his back, Lu Changan recalled the young Lord Lin Yi back then.

   Edward Lam died young in middle age.

  Lin Lu Shouyuan is more than halfway through, and he doesn't know if he can get through this hurdle and win opportunities in the battle of cultivating immortals.

  …

   A few days later.

  Lu Changan took the initiative to visit Fairy Shi from Xiaopan Peak.

  He is going to strengthen Xiaoguifeng's formation.

  Decades ago, Shi Manrong's second-tier middle-grade mountain protection formation for Xiaoguifeng was a bit tasteless to him.

  Lu Changan is going to deploy a set of quasi-third-order small mountain protection formations to improve safety protection.

  His personal formation attainment is only at the second-order ordinary level, and it is the foundation of dabbling in his previous life.

  In this life, Lu Changan also practiced talisman, puppet, alchemy, body refining and other fields, and he has no more energy to dabble in other skills.

  Furthermore, the formation is obscure and profound, so his talent can only be described as mediocre.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu took the initiative to visit. It is rare to see him in ten years. I am very flattered, so I must treat her well."

  Shi Manrong smiled sweetly, with an elegant demeanor, and invited Lu Changan into the cave.

  An elegant tea room.

  Shi Manrong rolled up her skirt sleeves, revealing a jade lotus-like arm, came to Lu Changan's side, bent slightly, and poured tea herself.

  In this angle, Shi Manrong is wearing a moonlight skirt, her tall and plump curves are abruptly and neatly outlined, like a dignified and beautiful relief.

  Lu Changan smiled, admiring the scene.

  Shi Manrong's beauty can only be said to be superior, not as good as Zhao Siyao and Mu Bingyun.

  But in this woman, the fragrance of plum blossoms tempered by hardships, the dignity and maturity of a person who is as pale as a chrysanthemum, are more attractive to experienced men.

   Sensing Lu Changan's gaze, Fairy Shi's eyes were as light as clear water, with slightly rippling eyes, pursed lips and a smile, and looked at him calmly.

  Even counting from Shi Manrong's amnesia, the two have been friends for decades, their ideas agree, and they understand each other well enough.

  As neighbors, the two people who have a good impression of each other have gradually become closer in recent years, and there is an ambiguous feeling of inseparability.

  Different from before amnesia, today's Shi Manrong is dignified and reserved, less active and charming than before.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, please taste this pot of tea made by Man Rong, is it to your liking?"

  Shi Manrong's voice was mellow and gentle, she leaned closer, and handed the brewed tea to Lu Changan.

  The tip of the nose is lingering with the fragrance of orchids.

  Lu Changan looked at Fairy Shi who was only close at hand, and naturally heard the implication behind his words.

   "We've known each other for so many years, it's not the first time Lu has drunk the tea and wine of Fairy Shi, so it's naturally to my liking."

  He smiled gently and replied.

   When they took the teacup, their hands touched each other. Shi Manrong seemed to be nervous, and the onion finger shook slightly, splashing a little water.

   "I'll wipe it for you."

  Fairy Shi smiled apologetically, supported Lu Changan's wrist, circulated his mana, and swiped away the water stains on it.

  After such an intimate act, the two held hands together, tacit understanding of each other.

  Fairy Shi was holding the teapot, and her posture was still bent, so Lu Changan pulled her to sit beside him.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu."

  Fairy Shi seemed to be cramped, with her slender legs close together, she snuggled into his arms, and said softly.

"What's wrong?"

  Lu Changan put his arms around her weak and boneless waist. The sense of familiarity from that year flooded in, but it also had a different charm.

   "I still don't remember the relationship with Fellow Daoist Lu before I lost my memory."

  Shi Man said quietly.

  Lu Changan looked at her, not as if he was lying.

  Fairy Shi, whom I met again, does have a different personality, not as active and enchanting as before.

  The progress of emotion, reserved and reserved, is like a bottle of fine wine that has been preserved for many years, which needs to be savored slowly.

  Because Lu Changan didn't take the initiative very much, it took so many years to break the layer of window paper that is so close.

   "However, my concubine has a kind of intuition. We are so sympathetic, and our hearts and natures are compatible. The relationship back then should not be shallow."

  Shi Manrong looked at him with a smile.

   "Our relationship is indeed not shallow."

  With today's friendship and relationship, Lu Changan no longer has to hide it.

   "In the past, the concubine was very curious about the relationship. But today, the concubine doesn't want to know so clearly."

  Shi Manrong didn't ask Lu Changan to elaborate.

  In the tea room, the lonely man and the widow hug each other quietly.

  Lu Changan felt the plump and convex curves of the beautiful woman, and the head that was full of anger and resentment approached a little bit.

  Fairy Master's lips are plump and sweet, as fresh as cherries.

   After a long time.

   Fairy Shi seemed to be recovering from drowning, she let out a long breath, her face was as bright as the morning glow, and her eyes were as tender as water.

   "Fairy Master, the future is long, please stop in moderation."

  Lu Changan smiled slightly, let go of his hairpins, half of his skirt and shirt were unbuttoned, revealing a section of Shi Xianzi's clean and snowy legs.

"you…"

  Shi Manrong's pretty eyes were wide open, with an instinctive anger on her face, she felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell.

  However, this is also in line with her original intention. After breaking through that layer of window paper, she doesn't want to develop so fast and be looked down upon by someone.

  A moment later, Shi Manrong tidied up her dress and resumed her demure and dignified demeanor, looking thoughtful.

   "Fairy Master, let's talk about business."

  Lu Changan said in a leisurely manner.

  The intimacy just now is just a small adjustment in the long and boring life of cultivating immortals.

   Immortal cultivators have spent decades or hundreds of years of hard work, if they do not relax properly, they are prone to mental disorders.

  Most indifferent or paranoid evil cultivators have no equivalent Taoist companions.

   "A quasi-third-order formation is quite expensive to make. Are you sure you want to deploy it?"

  Shi Manrong sat in a dignified posture, confirming.

   "It doesn't hurt to be a little expensive."

  Lu Changan is now rich and powerful, and safety comes first.

   "Based on our friendship, I believe Fairy Shi will give you a fair price."

  Of course, the price can be cut if it can be cut.

  Even if it is a small quasi-third-order mountain protection formation, the cost is quite high.

   Just make a discount, the price difference is thousands of Lingshi.

  Shi Manrong flicked her temples, and rolled her eyes lightly, with a unique charm.

  Afterwards, according to Lu Changan's needs, she preliminarily determined a plan for a quasi-third-order formation.

  In the end, they generously gave a 30% discount, not much profit.
