Chapter 195 Old Letter

At the insistence of the two real people, Lu Changan had no choice but to acquiesce in calling Fu Xuemei "Brother Lu".

For the female Zhendan cultivator, this is a condescension and friendship with him, and if she refuses, it will appear to be ungrateful.

As a dying man, Master Huang Long might have noticed Lu Changan's extraordinary qualities. After the failed attempt to get married, I hope there can be a little bond left between the two.

Half an hour later, Fu Xuemei, who had recovered a little mana, could barely stand up.

"Miss Fu's injury is out of danger. What are the three of you's plans next?"

Lu Changan glanced at the setting sun outside the cave.

Master Huang Long and Fu Xuemei immediately understood the implication of Lu Changan's words.

"This time we are causing trouble for Little Friend Lu. We will leave Wuqi Mountain before nightfall."

Master Huanglong cupped his hands and said in shame.

Lu Changan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The two real people in Huanglong Mountain still wanted to save face and did not stay on the mountain.

The two real people naturally understood that staying in Wuqi Mountain would bring risks to Lu Changan.

As a small, neutral trading point, Wuqi Mountain is just an ordinary transaction, selling items, and treating guests, which is understandable.

After all, Huanglongshan is not a wanted person, he has just lost his power.

However, if Wuqi Mountain took in the injured from Huanglong Mountain, it would have the meaning of shelter, and it would easily lead to confrontation with the hostile forces in Huanglong Mountain.

There was still an hour before nightfall, so Lu Changan arranged a room for the three of them to take a short rest.

Fu Xuemei, in particular, is very weak and needs to hurry up to recover.

"To be honest, little friend Lu, we may be targeted by the enemy, and the risk of going out is not small. Before we leave, can you help Xuemei heal her injuries one last time to speed up her recovery?"

Master Huang Long explained the situation calmly and made a request.

"good."

Lu Changan and Fu Xuemei have a doctor-patient relationship, so this requirement is reasonable. As long as we don't stay overnight, everything else is fine.

The guest room arranged for Fu Xuemei is exactly the room where Mu Bingyun lived. The decoration and furniture are in line with the aesthetics of female cultivators.

Master Huang Long glanced at Fu Dong, and the two left in a tacit understanding.

Only Lu Changan and Fu Xuemei were left in the room.

Fu Xuemei sat cross-legged on the futon, with long lavender hair and a face as beautiful as snow, like an independent moon fairy.

"Brother Lu, if you feel embarrassed, you might as well sit quietly for an hour and chat casually."

Fu Xuemei said with a quiet face.

She vaguely realized that Master's arrangement was not only to speed up the recovery of injuries, but also had an intriguing purpose.

"No, if it can give Miss Fu a chance to survive, it's not worth mentioning that Lu has to spend an hour."

Lu Changan came to Fu Xuemei.

The latter smiled and nodded, and did not feel the awkwardness of being in such close proximity to an orphaned man.

Or you may find it offensive to face-to-face healing with your palms on your belly.

Lu Changan thought for a moment, then came behind Fu Xuemei, sat cross-legged, and put his palms on her back, allowing the evergreen magic power to penetrate into her abdomen.

Seeing such an action, Fu Xuemei, who had her back turned, had a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

Even though Lu Changan deliberately avoided it, he could feel the smooth and delicate skin of Jiedan Jurchen through the moon-white dress with his palms.

An hour flew by.

During this period, the two rarely communicated.

Fu Xuemei carried the pill power and cooperated tacitly with Lu Changan in healing his injuries, making the progress smoother.

"Okay, in the next few months, Miss Fu will try to avoid using magic power."

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Lu."

The two stood up together, and since both sides had contributed, there was a little sweat on their foreheads, and they could clearly feel each other's breath.

Perhaps because the healing progress was good, Fu Xuemei's pale face became slightly rosy.

Seeing the two people walking out side by side, Huang Long smiled, nodded, and thanked them again.

At this time, it was getting dark.

The three visitors to Huanglong Mountain stopped staying and said goodbye.

"I hope the three of you will not leak the details of this treatment to the outside world."

Before leaving, Lu Changan also made a request.

"I can't live for more than a few days, and I will never cause trouble to Fellow Daoist Lu. If the time is right, I might be able to eliminate a hidden danger in Wu Qi Mountain."

Master Huang Long coughed softly and transformed into the rickety old man he was before.

"Brother Lu, don't worry, my sister and I will keep everything secret."

Fu Xuemei, sister and brother, bowed solemnly.

…

In the last ray of sunset.

Lu Changan watched the carriage of the Huanglongshan trio leave Xiaogui Peak.

Zhizhi!

The rock rat emerged from the cave and stared directly at the carriage going away.

See the drool remaining at the corner of its mouth.

Lu Changan couldn't help but laugh. He touched the hairy rat head and said:

"Stop dreaming about the great dreams of Spring and Autumn. How can you covet a mid-level third-order earth dragon beast?"

It turned out that Huanglong Zhenren had taken out the "petrified specimen" of the Earth Dragon Beast before, and it was sensed by the Earth Rock Rat.

The Earth Dragon Beast is a pure earth spirit beast, and even contains thin dragon blood. It is slightly stronger than many monsters with earth blood.

Whether it is the inner elixir of the Earth Dragon Beast or a body of flesh and blood, it is a great tonic for the Earth Rock Rat, which can increase the chance of being promoted to the third level Great Demon.

However, Lu Changan had never been able to possess such a precious spiritual beast in his previous life.

Lu Changan had cultivated to the peak of Dan Jie in his previous life, but he was still in the late stage of Dan Jie, and his background was slightly inferior to that of the other major sects.

In his heyday, Huanglong Zhenren, together with the mid-level third-level earth dragon beast, could already rival the general late-stage pill-forming overhaul.

Huang Long Zhenren and the Earth Dragon Beast have lived together for hundreds of years, and they have a deep relationship. He is a well-known pet-protecting maniac.

The Earth Dragon Beast is not completely dead, and there is still a trace of life and intelligence.

If Yuanying Zhenjun takes action, combined with the fourth-level spiritual medicine, there is still some hope of saving it.

Therefore, Lu Changan did not propose an unrealistic deal.

Moreover, his personal cultivation is slow, and if the Earth Rock Rat advances too quickly, it may not be a good thing.

After Huang Longshan and the other two left.

For the sake of caution, Lu Changan took the Earth Rock Rat and carefully checked the cave.

The previous visitors included two Jindan Zhenren, one of whom was a legendary figure who had been famous for hundreds of years.

Lu Changan had to be on guard, in case the other party left some hidden means.

The Earth Rock Rat sniffed carefully in the places where the three guests had stayed, not leaving any corner.

After confirming again and again, there was nothing missing.

Squeak!

The Earth Rock Rat came out of the guest room where Fu Xuemei had stayed before, holding a letter in its mouth.

"This is..."

Lu Changan found that the letter looked old and had been kept for many years.

The elegant handwriting on it was also very familiar. It was not left by Fu Xuemei.

But the guest room where Fu Xuemei just rested and recuperated was where Mu Bingyun once lived as a maid.

"Uncle Lu, when you see this letter, I don't know when it will be, and you may never see it..."

This letter was left quietly by Mu Bingyun after she was attacked by the "Night Fisherman" outside Wuqi Mountain and stayed here overnight.

The words in the letter were shy and uneasy like a girl confessing her heart.

"...It was the master's instructions before his death, which gave Bingyun the courage to confide her inner thoughts. If Uncle Lu doesn't like it, just pretend that you have never seen this letter."

After reading the letter, Lu Changan's face showed no joy or anger, and he was silent for a moment.

He never expected that the eldest lady of the Mu family had such a will to her disciples before her death.

If Lu Changan and Mu Bingyun had a good impression of each other, they would not have to consider the relationship of seniority. As a deceased friend, her spirit in heaven will not blame him, but will silently bless him.

Lu Changan sighed: Mu Xiuyun dedicated her life to the family, and placed all her regrets on her disciples.

...

The night was hazy.

Lu Changan had not yet recovered from his past memories.

Xiaogui Peak once again welcomed an uninvited guest.

"Miss Zhou came to visit late at night, I wonder what you have to say?"

In the cave, Lu Changan looked at the beautiful, pure and charming girl in a yellow skirt opposite him.

In fact, he had not seen Zhou Qingxuan from the Beast Control Zhou family for many years.

The Zhou family has cultivated a new generation of talisman masters, and their cooperation with Lu Changan is not as frequent as it was at the beginning.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, have Fu Xuemei and her brother from Huanglong Mountain been to Xiaogui Peak?"

Zhou Qingxuan asked in a tight tone.

"Yes."

Lu Changan's thoughts turned, thinking that the Beast Control Zhou family and Huanglong Mountain had no grudges, and even had some cooperation.

So, what was Zhou Qingxuan's purpose of coming here?

"The beast-controlling Zhou family, beast-controlling... that must be for the Earth Dragon Beast whose life or death is unknown!"

In a flash, Lu Changan understood the purpose of this woman's visit.

"How is Fu Xuemei's injury? Has Brother Lu treated her?"

Zhou Qingxuan's pretty eyes stared at Lu Changan.

The spiritual pressure emanating from this woman, accompanied by the fluctuation of her spiritual consciousness, exceeded that of an ordinary late-stage foundation-building person.

"What does Brother Zhou mean by this? Are you here to Wu Qishan to ask for punishment, or are you here to teach me how to do things?"

Lu Changan's calm tone revealed a hint of displeasure.

He didn't know where Zhou Qingxuan got the courage. Even if she was in the late-stage foundation-building period, she was not qualified to come to Wu Qishan to show off.

Of course, Lu Changan didn't know that Zhou Qingxuan had a quasi-third-level beast pet, and her strength was considered to be among the ranks of fake Dan Zhenren.

"I'm being abrupt."

Zhou Qingxuan looked at him, but the latter didn't give in at all, and couldn't help but smile apologetically:

"I don't mean to blame Fellow Daoist Lu, I just came to find out the news of Huanglong Mountain."

"If Fellow Daoist Lu can tell the truth, I'm willing to give you a set of animal food and elixir suitable for late-stage second-level earth-type monsters."

Zhou Qingxuan smiled sweetly and handed over a jade box.

Lu Changan took the jade box, took a look, and said slowly: "I have made a deal with Huanglong Mountain, so I can't tell you the core information, I can only tell you the general situation."

"Fu Xuemei's injuries are very serious, and she mainly relies on secret medicine to maintain her. Because of the favor I received back then and the situation, I can only treat her, but my medical skills are limited, like a drop in the bucket, and I can only wake her up."

"How much strength do you estimate she has, and how long will it take to recover from her injuries?" Zhou Qingxuan pondered.

"It's hard to say. My assessment of Jindan Zhenren's injury was inaccurate."

"Will Zhenren Huanglong show up?"

"Zhenren Huanglong? Isn't he dead?" Lu Changan asked in surprise.

"Apart from the Fu siblings, are there any suspicious people among the group?"

"There's an old servant who doesn't look like Zhenren Huanglong."

Lu Changan didn't like Zhou Qingxuan's behavior very much. In addition to his professional ethics, he had a certain degree of protection for the private information of his trading customers.

"Thank you, Daoyou Lu, for telling me. I hope you won't tell the outside world about my visit tonight."

Zhou Qingxuan learned some of the situation and stood up to say goodbye.

"Miss Zhou, don't worry. I will keep my mouth shut."

Lu Changan put away the jade box and promised.

"It's interesting. The beast-controlling Zhou family actually participated in the hunt? Or maybe it was Zhou Qingxuan's personal act?"

Watching the yellow-skirted girl leave on a flying bird, Lu Changan looked very interested.

Both sides gave benefits, he didn't want to intervene in the matter, and he didn't help anyone.

...

It was the second half of the night.

Lu Changan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, suddenly sensed a powerful and terrifying fluctuation of magic power.

Boom!

Faintly, there was a roar that shook the earth and mountains, sweeping in from hundreds of miles away, and a cool breeze blew from Wuqi Mountain.
