Eternal Tranquility

Liu Qinghuan flew in front of the man and called out in surprise: "Senior Brother Qu?"

This person is Qu Yunhe. He is sitting on the gorgeous flying carpet. There is also a pot of wine and a few side dishes on the flying carpet. He is pouring and drinking by himself, looking leisurely and leisurely.

Seeing Liu Qinghuan back, Qu Yunhe stroked his sleeves and said with a smile: "Junior brother Liu is back. I have been waiting for a long time. I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss you so much, haha."

Liu Qinghuan opened the protective magic circle and apologized: "I went out to deal with some trivial matters. Thank you for waiting, senior brother."

The two flew into the courtyard. Qu Yunhe held up a small wine bottle and said, "Junior Brother Liu, come and have a drink with me!"

The two sat down at the stone table in the courtyard. Liu Qinghuan didn't know what to say, but fortunately Qu Yunhe was eloquent, so the two of them chatted while drinking.

After chatting like this for a long time, Liu Qinghuan couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking, so he could only accompany him patiently.

Qu Yunhe took the jug and poured wine for him, and asked casually: "Junior brother Liu, what do you think the purpose of cultivating immortality is?"

Liu Qinghuan raised the cup, a little confused: "Of course it is immortality."

"What about immortality?"

Liu Qinghuan's mind wandered and she replied: "There is still freedom and ease."

"That's right! You're free and easy!" Qu Yunhe clapped his legs and said, "The road to immortality is extremely lonely. To be free and easy, you need to know how to enjoy it. If you only know how to practice hard every day, but waste your good time, this immortality will be too much. Boring!”

Only then did Liu Qinghuan understand what the other party meant. He put down his wine glass and asked, "Senior Brother Qu, do you think practicing Buddhism is hard?"

Qu Yunhe shook his head and said: "Of course it's hard work. I meditate for more than half a year. When my cultivation level is high, I can stay in seclusion for tens or hundreds of years. Thinking about it, what's the point of living forever? It's not as satisfying as a mortal enjoying glory and wealth for a lifetime. ”

Liu Qinghuan shook his head and said: "But I find cultivation very interesting. Watching the spiritual power in my body continue to grow, I am very satisfied."

Qu Yunhe laughed loudly: "Junior Brother Liu, don't get me wrong, I'm not here to lead you into trouble in your cultivation. I just think that I want to live forever and also enjoy it, so that I can live up to the years."

Liu Qinghuan clinked glasses with him and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Qu is born to be better than others, and he naturally sees more fun than a kid like me who was born in the mountains. It's just that Senior Brother has the capital to have fun, but I don't."

Qu Yunhe shook his head: "What you said is wrong! Having fun is not just about having fun. Making more Taoist friends and expanding your network is also helpful for cultivation. Only when resources are exchanged with each other will we become better and better. Rich."

Liu Qinghuan thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's true. But my current plan is to improve my cultivation. If there are too many worldly things, put the cart before the horse, and lose the foundation of cultivation, it will be more of a loss than the gain."

He looked at the other person and said: "In the world of immortality, strength will speak for itself in the end! If you don't have any cultivation level, even if you have a strong background and great resources, others will only treat you as a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered!"

Qu Yunhe was a little stunned, and after a while he sighed: "Junior brother has thought it through." He drank a glass of wine silently, and said slowly: "I have indeed neglected my practice in the past two years, but I have gone too far."

He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, junior brother, for reminding me!"

Liu Qinghuan smiled: "Senior brother, you are joking! Senior brother is so smart, why do you need me to remind you?"

Qu Yunhe sighed, but stopped talking and just drank in silence.

Seeing that the side dishes on the table were almost eaten, Liu Qinghuan thought about it for a while, but when she entered the kitchen, she quickly brought out a few new dishes.

Qu Yunhe tasted it and praised: "I didn't expect that junior brother has such skills. It's not bad."

"It's just common food in the world." Liu Qinghuan said: "If senior brother likes it, just send a message and I will make it and send it to senior brother."

"Okay! Junior brother is really happy. I saw the right person! I am determined to be your friend!" Qu Yunhe laughed and said: "I know that junior brother is a pure cultivator, so I won't mention him as a brother. But from now on. If you encounter difficulties, junior brother, just say, although I, Qu Yunhe, am not a big shot, but as long as I can help, I will do anything!"

He said it very sincerely. Liu Qinghuan cupped his hands and said, "Then thank you senior brother first! Come, drink!" He picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for him.

The jug brought by Qu Yunhe was small and exquisite, but they had been drinking for so long and never saw the jug dry. The two of them drank from cup to cup until dark, and they didn't know how much they drank.

This was the first time Liu Qinghuan drank so much wine with someone. At first, he used his spiritual power to dispel the alcohol, but later he was too lazy to dispel it. He let the drunkenness sink deep and he was in a very happy mood.

Qu Yunhe was even more drunk. He was so drunk that he beat his chopsticks and sang in a wild voice: "I am walking on the clouds, riding the wind for thousands of miles. I dance with the sword, and the Taoist heart reaches the sky. In my dream, there are flowers and brocades." "Chun, wake up feeling lonely. The road to eternal life is far away, why bother with lovesickness..."

The music and lyrics are messy, and the singing is even more unflattering, but it has a heroic and wild charm. Liu Qinghuan couldn't help laughing as she listened to his random singing while holding the wine. Until Qu Yunhe left, the night devil's singing seemed to still be echoing in her ears.

He sat quietly in the courtyard for a moment, then walked into the kitchen as if he had remembered something. With a wave of his hand, numerous ingredients appeared in front of him.

Although he was drunk and hazy, the movements of his hands were extremely fast. Even so, he still felt that it was too slow, so he simply used his spiritual consciousness to process multiple ingredients at the same time. He was slicing here, chopping stuffing there, and frying on the other side.

I don't know how long I did it, until I felt tired, so I went back to my room and plopped down on the bed, and fell asleep. I didn't wake up until about three o'clock in the morning the next day.

After a heart-clearing mantra, I finally felt refreshed. Thinking back to yesterday, I got drunk for the first time in my life, which was a good experience. It seems that Qu Yunhe already understood what he meant. As for the rest, Liu Qinghuan smiled casually and forgot about it.

Picking up a storage bag placed next to the bed, when I took a look, I was shocked. Inside, I saw cups, dishes, and plates piled on top of each other.

The corners of Liu Qinghuan's mouth twitched slightly. In his drunken madness, he actually cooked so much at once, almost cooking all the ingredients he had stored before...

Haha, Yunzheng can probably die now!

He took out another blank record jade slip and briefly described some important things that happened since he parted with Yun Zheng. Finally, he said: "I am planning to expand the cave and urgently need a set of magic formations with strong protective capabilities. I heard that I am planning to expand the cave. Your family sells magic circles, so why not send a set over?"

Liu Qinghuan made a special trip to the sect's outer post office and entrusted the sect with the things he wanted to send to Yun Zheng and sent them to Ziwei Jiange. Ziwei Sword Pavilion is located in the Kunshan Mountains in the southeast of Yunmengze Continent. If it is just a communication, it only needs a long-distance communication talisman. But if you bring something with you, you can only go to the inn.

Fortunately, the Wenshi faction has a Dudu beast that is responsible for delivering letters. This beast has two bat-like flesh wings, is extremely fast, and has a small storage space on its belly, which is perfect for delivering small items over long distances. Spirit beast. It's just that the fee is high, a full trip costs ten low-grade spiritual stones.

After dealing with this matter, Liu Qinghuan returned to the Zizhu courtyard and came to the side of the mountain wall.

When building the courtyard, he had considered that he might expand the cave in the future, so there was a row of houses behind the Zizhu courtyard built against the mountain wall.

He summoned the Lengyue Ice Sword, injected spiritual power into it, and controlled the excavation with his spiritual consciousness. The sword light was seen flying, and the stone and soil were dug out piece by piece like a knife cutting tofu.

After digging a long passage inside, he dug two stone chambers on each side of the passage. After smoothing the cave walls and floor, inserting moonstone on the top, and placing some furniture and utensils, a small cave dwelling was built.

Each of the four newly built stone chambers has its own use. One of the two on the left is used as a quiet room for his future retreats, and the other is a spiritual beast room specially reserved for hoofhorn beasts.

Liu Qinghuan took the sleeping hoofhorn beast out of the spirit beast bag and placed it in the spirit beast room. At this time, it was already covered with soft-branch grass full of spiritual energy, making it very comfortable. Chu Yi's condition has stabilized, but he is still sleeping. The animal feeding pill placed in front of him has not been touched.

In the other two rooms, he prepared one to be used as an alchemy room and the other to place the reverse bamboo.

The planting of bamboo seeds is an extremely important and confidential matter for the disciples of Zhulin Mountain, so he asked Yunzheng if there was a stronger protective array.

After building the cave, he went to his quiet room, sat down on the green futon, and adjusted the essence, energy and spirit of his body to the best state.

He plans to plant bamboo seeds tomorrow.
