This prodigal Junior Sister!
She had used up eighty percent of the poison powder he had prepared for her when she fought those Prawn Demons who were as strong as mortals …
This amount was enough to defeat a hundred thousand soldiers in the secular world!
Looking at the thirteen almost empty storage artifacts in front of him, Li Changshou's forehead was full of black lines. He muttered in a low voice, as if a storm was brewing.
Lan Ling 'e knelt on the cattail hassock in front of him with two drops of tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. She was trying to escape the justice of Eldest Senior Brother with a pitiful appearance.
The corner of Li Changshou's mouth twitched. He took a pouch and asked, "Did you go to kill the Great Demons of the East Sea?"
"This, Senior Brother said … I should use this when I'm in danger …
I was almost cut by those Prawn Soldiers, so I used it subconsciously! "
Li Changshou's face darkened. "I remember that I prepared nine jars of this stuff for you, right?"
"I was almost cut many times …"
Lan Ling 'e's small mouth twitched, and she was about to cry. She explained with grievance, "Senior Brother, don't be angry. I know that it takes a lot of energy for you to refine these things. I didn't mean to waste them."
Looking at his little Junior Sister's expression, Li Changshou couldn't really get angry. He just sighed and said, "The energy is a small matter, but the materials are hard to find.
There are very few people in our Duxian Gate who can refine poison pills. These are all exchanged with my monthly allowance. "
"Senior Brother, I have considered this."
Lan Ling 'e blinked her eyes. She patted the belt around her slender waist and took out seven or eight simple storage artifacts.
"So, I exchanged all the rewards I could get for poisonous herbs and poisons that can be found in the sect!
This time, I definitely won't lose anything. In fact, I can even make a lot of money! "
Li Changshou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked at Lan Ling 'e's gem-like eyes and saw some … dodging in them.
This little girl …
"What else do you want to say? Since I'm in a good mood right now, tell me everything. "
Lan Ling'e took a deep breath and suddenly raised her hands. Then, she bent down and lowered her head. Her forehead and palms touched the ground at the same time, and her long hair scattered on both sides of her head.
Kowtow! Admit! Mistake!
She squeezed her eyes shut and yelled,
"Senior Brother! Ling'e let you down!
There are two Martial Uncles in the sect who are interested in the poison powder you made. They took a few bottles of the most powerful poison from me!
I really don't know how to refuse. I've already accidentally exposed the fact that Senior Brother's poison refining skills are super high! "
The room instantly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Lan Ling'e's shoulders trembled slightly.
She wasn't afraid that her Senior Brother would scold her. In fact, she wanted him to beat her up to vent his anger.
She was taught by her Senior Brother and understood his principles. That was why she was so nervous. She was worried that her Senior Brother would 'abandon' her in the future and draw a clear line between them.
Why is it so quiet …
It's over. Senior Brother must be completely disappointed in me!
Lan Ling'e, Lan Ling'e, why did you lose your composure when you went out? You couldn't help but deliberately show off in front of others, and in the end, you were targeted by the seniors in the sect …
She was probably the only one in the world who understood her Senior Brother's personality the best.
He could hide ninety percent of his trump cards and keep a low profile. He would definitely not get involved in any unnecessary karma.
The reason why she could obtain her Senior Brother's love was purely because she was his only Junior Sister and they had the same master. Otherwise, her Senior Brother would definitely not even look at her!
Ling'e said with a sobbing tone, "Senior Brother, it's good that you beat me up. Don't ignore me in the future … I know I'm wrong.
I know I was wrong. I won't go and show off these things anymore! "
Feeling a large hand reaching out from the front, Lan Ling'e subconsciously closed her eyes.
Since she entered the sect, was she going to suffer physical pain for the first time and be beaten up by her Senior Brother?
It was a good thing to be beaten up. At least her Senior Brother could use this method to punish her …
The large hand that had plucked three thousand strands of black hair fell straight down. It did not slap her hard. Instead, it turned and pinched her ear, shaking it left and right.
"Yes, Senior Brother, be gentle … It hurts … My ear is going to fall off …"
"Don't use such a tone. If Master hears it, he will think that I did something to you."
Li Changshou let go of the small ear and said calmly, "Get up. This is not a big deal."
Lan Ling 'e immediately sat up straight. Her slender figure was undoubtedly revealed as she bent forward and stood up.
She looked at the Eldest Senior Brother in front of her in puzzlement and asked softly, "Senior Brother, you're not going to hide anymore? Are you going to have a showdown with the sect? "
"What showdown? What cards do I have to show? "
Li Changshou did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Do you think I don't know your personality?
Since I gave you this poisonous powder to protect yourself, I have already thought about what you will do. In fact, I deliberately let you show this. There are also several other considerations.
Come back and sit down.
Among the two seniors who took the poisonous powder, was there Danding Peak's Senior Wan Linyun?
This senior's left leg is injured, and he uses a copper crutch. He looks a little cold, but when he talks to others, he always puts on a stiff smile. "
Deliberately let her show it?
Several considerations?
Lan Ling'e was stunned. "Senior Brother, how did you know? There was indeed such a senior. Didn't you just come back tonight?
The first to take the poisonous powder was Elder Ge, who hosted the Experiential Meet. Then, at noon the day before yesterday, the old man with the crutch came and gave me a lot of medicinal herbs. He took those …
Senior Brother! "
Lan Ling'e reacted quickly. Looking at Li Changshou's deep eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "You planned this!"
"There's no need to talk about planning between brothers. This is a kind protection. The more you know, the more burdened you will feel."
Li Changshou calmly waved his hand and said with a smile, "The poisonous powder I gave you focused on the combination of various kinds of medicinal herbs and toxicology. There are no difficult refining techniques, so it's not a big deal if people notice it.
The formula is in the Dao Scripture Outer Hall that disciples of each peak can go to, and the medicinal herbs can be exchanged in the Bai Fan Hall.
Nowadays, most of the Immortal Cultivation Sects in the five continents look down on the word 'poison'. They feel that it is a dishonorable method, and those who are good at using poison are often ostracized and prejudiced.
So, even if people find out that I know how to refine poison, it's not a big deal. Not only will it not attract too much attention, but they will also think that a disciple with ordinary aptitude like me has gone astray. "
After a pause, Li Changshou's mouth revealed a slight meaningful smile.
"Moreover, among the poisonous powder I gave you, there are a few types of strange poisons that came from a Poison Scripture I copied in the Dao Scripture Pavilion. The author of that Poison Scripture is this Elder Wan Linyun.
He should be the senior who has the deepest understanding of the Dao of Poison in our Duxian Sect.
If we can use this opportunity to form a good relationship with this senior, we might be able to get this senior's guidance in refining poison in the future. "
"Senior Brother," Lan Ling 'e complained with some dissatisfaction, "Don't you want to include me in it!
If it's this kind of thing, can't you just tell me directly?
You even arranged for such a gentle and cute junior sister, it's simply … too much … "
Li Changshou glanced at her. "Don't change the topic. We are talking about you wasting poisonous pills.
Anyhow, I'm going to give you some suffering so that you'll remember.
Tomorrow, I punish you to go to the back of the mountain to cut down trees and open up wastelands. You are not allowed to use Dao techniques or magic power. "
"If I want to cut wood, so be it," Lan Ling 'e replied obediently. Her pretty face was filled with the words' follow your heart '.
She couldn't help but ask, "What are we going to do when we open up the land?"
"Build a Pill Room to refine pills and poison.
This time, I'll borrow your hand to let the sect's management know that I'm good at refining poison. In the future, I can naturally do this in our Xiao Qiong Mount, and I won't have to play hide and seek every time. "
After saying that, Li Changshou stood up and put away all the medicinal sachets on the table. He stretched and said, "After I finish meditating at noon, I'll find a suitable place to build a Pill Room."
"Senior Brother, you clearly want to be lazy. How can you let such a weak junior sister chop wood!"
Lan Ling 'e made a face at his back and complained with some dissatisfaction.
"This is for you, weak Qi Practitioner."
Li Changshou, who had already walked to the door, suddenly thought of something. He casually took out a jade box from his sleeve and threw it to his junior sister.
"A gift?"
Lan Ling 'e instantly forgot her previous gloominess and happily hugged the jade box.
Just as she was about to open the jade box, she seemed to have thought of something. She held the jade box with her transcendence energy and sent it ten feet away before opening it in the air.
A faint fragrance wafted over. A small white flower with six petals lay quietly in the jade box.
'Medicinal herb, I thought it was jewelry or something.'
Lan Ling 'e just wanted to complain, but Li Changshou had already left the room. Only his slightly tired voice remained in the array.
"Next time before bathing, put it in warm water. It can help you expand your meridians, dispel poison, nourish your skin, and make it more lustrous.
See you tomorrow. "
"Alright, thank you, Senior Brother. See you tomorrow …"
Phew —
Lan Ling 'e let out a long sigh of relief and slumped on the round chair. Then, she smiled proudly.
'I passed safely!'
'Senior Brother still dotes on me. I thought that after wasting so much poison powder, I would at least be scolded. I didn't expect him to just twist my ears.
However, regarding the matter of the Priming Meet, he seemed to have been properly arranged by Senior Brother from the beginning to the end.
'This is indeed a little unpleasant. I keep feeling that Senior Brother still doesn't trust me …'
'Forget it, Senior Brother has always been like this.'
'He would use True Fire to burn the hair that he cut off, and use poison to melt the nails that he trimmed. Even the little junior sister who purposely got drunk would be tied to the bed with an Immortal Binding Lock and covered with a blanket …'
'Uh, I seem to have accidentally exposed something.'
Ling 'e blushed.' I didn't purposely get drunk last year! '
…
After returning to his straw hut, Li Changshou went back to his bed and meditated. He planned the layout of the alchemy room in his mind.
Previously, he had always used a small cauldron that he carried with him to refine poison. It could no longer meet his needs. Moreover, in order to refine the Immortal-Melting Pill and stronger poison pills, he needed a bigger and better cauldron.
'I'll build the alchemy room first before going to the Hundred Mortal Hall to ask the Martial Uncles and Martial Aunts that I'm familiar with.'
A good cauldron could only be found and not sought. He could only rely on luck.
It would be best if he could find some old cauldrons and try to save them himself. He wanted to see if a miracle could happen …
He had actually been thinking about the alchemy room for thirty to forty years, but he had always been hesitant.
Ordinary was the best camouflage color.
From the isolation array that covered his and his disciple's living quarters, to the array outside his and his junior sister's straw hut, to the mountains, rivers, grass, and trees on Xiao Qiong Mount, they were all ordinary. There was nothing special about them.
After building the alchemy room, he had to make all sorts of arrangements inside and outside the alchemy room to prevent others from discovering some of the 'tricks' he used when refining pills and poison.
From the very beginning, Li Changshou understood that when he had just started his cultivation, any deliberate disguise would not be able to fool those experts. Instead, he would attract their attention.
Nothing good might happen if he was noticed by those experts.
If he did not attract their attention, it was unlikely that something bad would happen that was beyond his control. At the very least, the probability of something happening would be much lower.
"The alchemy room cannot be too close to my residence, in case any poisonous gas leaks …"
Li Changshou muttered softly. He took out a storage Dharma artifact that was specially used to store books and jade scrolls. He took out a thick stack of parchment.
There were formation diagrams and architectural blueprints drawn on them, and every single one of them had many traces of repeated modifications. The oldest pieces of sheepskin already had very faint markings on them.
