Chen Qing bought a handful of Gu spirit grass and kept it.
Then, he turned his back to Zhang Yangdao and walked away. After taking a few steps, he saw three Carefree Mountain disciples drinking and playing a finger-guessing
Walking into a corridor beside the winery, and seeing that there was no one around, he immediately used the Fog Gu Changing Technique, and joined the three Carefree Mountain disciples' drinking session.
When they saw Chen Qing, they naturally invited him gladly. After drinking with them for an hour, Chen Qing naturally did not drink much.
In the end, he went up the mountain with the three Carefree Mountain disciples. When Chen Qing returned to the foot of the mountain, his heart was still pounding.
He looked at the black forest not far from the mountain gate. "Is there a senior brother from the Shadow Hall? I have something to discuss with Senior Brother Feng."
When the three Carefree Mountain disciples heard this, they also cupped their hands and bade farewell.
After the three of them left, a pine tree in the distance swayed, and a Shadow Hall disciple in black descended from it. "Hall Master Chen, follow me."
The Shadow Hall disciples took out a lantern from behind their backs, and lit it up to lead the way.
After circling around the forest, the Shadow Hall disciple brought Chen Qing to a huge cave entrance. There were a few huge
The disciples of the Shadow Hall and the disciples of the Shadow Hall guarding the door switched places. The disciples of the Shadow Hall guarding the door led Chen Qing into the cave.
The deeper they went into the cave, the wider it became. It was a different world.
The cave was extremely spacious, so much so that Chen Qing felt that the entire Carefree Mountain was hollow.
This was the interior of the turtle shell!
There was a huge steel workshop inside. Steam was rising from it, and various exquisite and sharp weapons and suits of armor were placed nearby.
From time to time, the sound of hammering could be heard from inside.
This turtle shell was really thick. He could not hear anything outside the turtle shell.
Bypassing these, Chen Qing saw Feng Qi in a room deep inside the cave.
At this moment, Feng Qi was marking something on a map of Carefree Mountain. No one knew what those symbols meant.
Seeing Chen Qing coming over, Feng Qi picked up the oil lamp with a smile, and said, "Junior Brother Chen, you're a rare guest. What's the matter? Why are you looking for me so late at night?"
Chen Qing said, "The last time that Zhang Yang entered the garden, I also distributed some spirit stones for profit. I wanted to buy some materials to feed the Sword Gu and see if it could improve.
"Unexpectedly, I saw Zhang Yangdao in the market."
Feng Qi put down the blueprint in his hand. "From the looks of it, he should be here to scout."
Chen Qing asked, "Senior Brother, what are you going to do?"
Feng Qi's expression became serious. He reached out and pressed Chen Qing's shoulder. "Junior Brother, you have to remember that since we said 'If we meet again, don't blame the sword for being blind,' then the sword must have no eyes."
On the way back to his cave abode, Chen Qing saw Ye Yuntian going down the mountain with a disciple of the Shadow Hall.
He had a conclusion in his heart.
They had already given Zhang Yangdao a warning. Since the latter did not know how to appreciate favors, they could only take action!
During this period of time, it was better not to go down the mountain.
It was too dangerous.
Sword Gu and Fog Gu had to be upgraded as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if he encountered such a thing next time, he would not have any means to save his life!
One could not rely on luck to survive.
Speaking of which, why did he feel that there had been more storms recently?
No, it should be because he had become a hall master.
It was not that he had brought about these storms after becoming the hall master, but that he knew more after becoming the hall master of the spirit plant
In the past, when he had just been an ordinary disciple, there had been no need to inform him about these things.
That was good too. It was better than not knowing anything. At least he could avoid bad things if he knew about them in advance.
This time, Ye Yuntian didn't ask him to hold the earthen jar. It seemed that this was an operation that didn't need to be discussed.
At night, Chen Qing came to the basement. He leaned on the turtle shell and listened for a while to make sure that he could not hear anything.
This turtle shell was really thick.
He opened his hand and released Fog Gu. He took out a single Bai Ze's hair and placed it in his palm, letting Fog Gu eat it.
Looking at the progress, it had already reached 98. Eating this should be enough.
Calculating the time, it should be tomorrow morning.
Chen Qing went to bed early, preparing to wake up early and wait for the Fog Gu to level up before going on duty.
Early in the morning, in the dark basement, Chen Qing suddenly woke up from his dream.
This feeling was right!
He opened his hand. The Fog Gu no longer turned into smoke one moment and returned to its insect form the next; it had solidified into a ball.
Chen Qing looked through the transparent Gu shell. The fog inside kept changing, and finally came out from a small hole in the shell.
[Mortal-grade Fog Gu]
Quality: Rank five
Lifespan: 26/69
Effect: Within three breaths of time, the body will turn into mist. During this period of time, you can fly. After turning into mist, it will take 30 breaths of time to recover.
Growth Requirement: First dew in the morning
Growth Progress: 0/100
Advancement Requirements: Rank nine, foggy weather, smoke from soul-returning incense, one piece of Bai Ze's fur, one jin of cold jade
After advancing to rank five, the time had finally increased by one breath.
Why was Fog Gu's lifespan longer than that of Grass Spirit Gu, Sword Gu, and Wine Gu?
First dew in the morning?
The morning dew, huh.
It was slightly troublesome, but it was not impossible.
This was the first time he didn't have to spend money. All he needed was dew.
Chen Qing immediately kept the Fog Gu into his body, turning into fog and flying out of the basement through the rubble.
The weather today was not very good. The entire sky was gloomy early in the morning, but the rain did not fall, making people feel a little depressed.
Of course, this did not affect Chen Qing from collecting some dew to feed to Fog Gu.
He arrived at the spirit plant garden with ease. It was a good time since the disciples of the spirit plant hall had yet to arrive.
Bright dewdrops rolled on the various spirit herbs and flowers.
Without the light of dawn, it looked a little gray and not so bright. It was like dark jade beads.
Chen Qing squatted down in front of a blood ginseng, letting Fog Gu lie down and drink the dew.
As he wandered between the flourishing grass and flowers, Chen Qing felt that his mind was clear.
He reached out and plucked the most beautiful peony flower. This bright and elegant color would definitely look good on Yu Qingshuang's head.
After collecting dew for 15 minutes, Fog Gu was full, and did not have any desire to eat. Chen Qing tidied up and made a mark in the blood ginseng field.
A blood ginseng had been dug up here, but he did not see it in Zhang Yangdao's medicine basket.
In the evening, Chen Qing sat in the spirit plant hall, and cooked a bowl of spirit ginseng porridge. He hurriedly drank it and prepared to go back.
Li He came to report, "Hall Master, a disciple from the Shadow Hall has arrived."
Chen Qing waved his hand and gestured for Li He to bring the Shadow Hall disciples in. The Shadow Hall disciples came in front of Chen Qing, cupped their hands, and bowed slightly. "Hall Master Chen, the hall master asked me to tell you that the trap has been set and the ambush is complete.
"Please go over and bear witness."
Chen Qing thought for a moment and nodded. "I understand."
Even though he could raise his Gu insects, what he lacked the most was actual combat experience. Now that Carefree Mountain was attacking Zhang Yangdao, it was a good opportunity to earn actual combat experience.
With Feng Qi's meticulousness, there shouldn't be any danger.
The Shadow Hall disciple continued, "The hall master also asked you to bring Yu Qingshuang along."
Chen Qing looked up slightly. Feng Qi probably felt that Yu Qingshuang didn't know how sinister people were, and wanted to bring her to see the world.
People's hearts could only be seen with your eyes, and not your ears.
