The sun was dim, shining through the dense leaves in the forest, and the mottled light and shadows were sprinkled on the mountain path. Ning Zhuo carried a wine jar in his hand, walked leisurely, and brushed the branches. The birds chirped in the forest, clear and pleasant. The air was fresh, mixed with the fragrance of soil and plants. "I'm here again." Ning Zhuo walked to the deep pool, which was where he and Lin Shanshan met for the first time. The water in the pool was clear, and the fish swam in it. Suddenly, it jumped out of the water, stirring up ripples and breaking the golden sun on the water. Ning Zhuo continued to move forward and went around to the mountain path behind the waterfall. On his left, the waterfall roared, splashing water, the sun shone, and the rainbow crossed the sky. On the right, the mountain wall was mossy, quiet and deep. One movement and one stillness, as if there was a beautiful rhythm of yin and yang harmony. After walking through the mountain path, Ning Zhuo stopped in front of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave. He did not enter directly, but urged his magic power, mobilized the talisman paper, and wrote a flying letter in an instant.
The letter flew slowly into the cave. Soon, Linghu Jiu came out of the cave with a smile, holding the letter, and greeted him personally. At this point, the two finally met for the first time. Linghu Jiu was tall and thin, wearing a green robe with wide sleeves, floating like the wind, and unrestrained. Ning Zhuo was wearing a white robe with wide sleeves, his eyebrows were clear as water, his face was like a spring breeze, like the morning light, polite, and people felt good about him. When Ning Zhuo saw Linghu Jiu, he thought to himself: "He is really a good person!" He thought about the intelligence, and thought about Linghu Jiu's gift of the gold and fire enlightenment diagrams, and felt that Linghu Jiu was not simple. "Today, we must get to know this person better." Linghu Jiu has a high reputation in Wanyaomen, and his position is unbreakable. He must be the power core of Wanyaomen, or even the next Wanyaomen leader. Linghu Jiu secretly exclaimed: "What a good boy! He is handsome and elegant, a good young man in this world." "Although he is respected by the elders of the family, his clothes are simple." Before meeting, Ning Zhuo had many speculations about Linghu Jiu. At the first sight of meeting, he felt that Linghu Jiu was outstanding and in line with his speculation. Linghu Jiu also had many speculations about Ning Zhuo. At the first sight of meeting, he felt that Ning Zhuo's appearance was even better than his imagination. His simple and clean clothes made him feel good. Both of them were looking forward to meeting each other. They both had a good impression of each other when they met for the first time. Linghu Jiu smiled: "Mr. Ning Zhuo, the sect has already sent a letter before you came. You have won many battles in Xiaozheng Peak recently and are in the limelight. I have lived in the deep cave for a long time and have heard about it. Please come in quickly!" Ning Zhuo first put down the wine jar in his hand, held it in the air with his magic power, clasped his hands together and saluted, saying seriously: "I have heard of Brother Linghu's name for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today. I am here to visit you today and bring a jar of light wine. I hope you will not refuse." Linghu Jiu twitched his nose, stared at the floating wine jar, laughed, and raised his hand to make a gesture of invitation: "Brother Ning, Linghu is ashamed to accept your generous gift. Please come in and let me show my hospitality." The two entered the cave. The cave was simply furnished with stone tables, stone benches, and stone beds.
Linghu Jiu asked Ning Zhuo to sit down: "The cave is simple and crude, and it is really neglectful to the distinguished guest." Ning Zhuo said: "The scenery in the mountains is unique, simple and quiet. And it must be a pleasure in life to drink with Brother Linghu today." Linghu Jiu took out the stone bowl and looked at the wine jar expectantly. His nostrils twitched again: "To be honest with you, Mr. Ning Zhuo, I have a nose for wine and am good at smelling the aroma of wine. This wine smell alone is extraordinary and has already attracted my heart!" Ning Zhuo was slightly stunned. In the intelligence, Linghu Jiu's love of wine was emphasized. But after meeting, Ning Zhuo realized that Linghu Jiu's habit of drinking was more serious than described in the intelligence. While pouring the wine, Ning Zhuo introduced the origin of the wine. This is Bingyu wine. It is produced from Bingxin Jade Pot, which is a legacy of the Ning family. Those who practice Bingxin Jue drink this wine, which complements each other. Ning Zhuo first filled Linghu Jiu's stone bowl, and then filled his own glass cup. Ning Zhuo raised the glass cup with both hands: "I'm here to visit you today, and I want to thank Brother Linghu first. Before, the misunderstandings of Laode and others were all due to Brother Linghu's help to solve the problem for me." Linghu Jiu laughed and picked up the stone bowl: "Oh, I can't put it in anymore, I drink it first!" Ning Zhuo:? ! For a moment, the sixteen-year-old boy was stunned, and saw Linghu Jiu raised his neck and swallowed a full bowl of ice jade wine into his stomach. Linghu Jiu drank the wine and felt an extreme coolness, like drinking ice spring water in the cold winter. The coolness ran through his body, eliminating all his fatigue and anxiety. The wine was like melting ice and snow, without any spicy feeling, and the sweet aftertaste was like lingering in the room for three days. The more you taste it, the more beautiful it feels! At the same time, a magnificent stream of light burst out from Linghu Jiu's upper dantian, like a waterfall, pouring down his head and pouring into the qi sea of the middle dantian along the spine. In the qi sea, the sea of clouds surged and the waves continued. Linghu Jiu's qi sea cultivation level rose. "Good wine, good wine. Sir, please fill it up quickly!" Linghu Jiu was excited and said without hesitation. Ning Zhuo smiled even more: "It is my honor that Brother Linghu likes this wine." But he was muttering in his heart: "What kind of person is this person? Is this a disguise?" According to the information collected, Linghu Jiu is lazy and casual, and he is very popular with his fellow apprentices. But before, when Laude and others spread rumors, Linghu Jiu took care of the overall situation and took the initiative to compensate Ning Zhuo with the enlightenment diagrams of the gold and fire elements. Obviously, he is scheming. This made Ning Zhuo wonder what Linghu Jiu's true face was. In the past, Ning Zhuo needed long-term observation and contact to gradually understand the details of a person's temperament. But now, he has magical powers, magic weapons, and convenient methods.
Watching Linghu wine take a swig from the second bowl, Ning Zhuo's eyes flashed. Supernatural power - life hangs in the balance... "Um?!" At this moment, Ning Zhuo almost lost his temper. All because of a strong intuition that told him: If he activates his magical power at this moment, even if he can successfully plant it, Linghujiu will notice it! This was the first time Ning Zhuo encountered this situation. He was shocked. "I have foundation-building cultivation, and even Golden Core-level monks are immune and cannot detect it. Ning Jiufan, the second ancestor of the Zhou family, the Fox God of Wuyin Mountain. Even if he is as strong as Zhu Xuanji, I have blessed him with the Thread of Life. "Supernatural power." Regarding the existence of the golden elixir level, although Ning Zhuo added the life thread, at most it was to add some sensing to himself, and it was impossible to control it by force. On the one hand, even if it is controlled by force, the range of control is extremely small. At most, it can only move your little finger, or sneeze or something. On the other hand, once it is forcibly manipulated, the Jindan monks who were previously unable to detect it will inevitably know about it and become suspicious. It is very likely that he found Ning Zhuo, and then he was so angry that he punched the big-headed boy to death. "I can't bless Xuansi for the existence of Nascent Soul level." Ning Zhuo tried this secretly after meeting Grandma Yuan. It's useless, it won't go down at all. When the hanging thread descends above the head, there is an invisible force, like a strong wind blowing, making it impossible for the hanging thread to succeed. "My magical power has always been unfavorable for existences at the foundation building level, but now it has failed with Linghujiu!" Han Zhou, Hua Guzi, Lin Shanshan and others in the Ten Thousand Medicine Valley were all killed by Ning Zhuo. Lai Wuying, Zheng Xingchen and others have never received such treatment. This is because Ning Zhuo maintains a good habit of not openly displaying his magical powers in public. Ning Zhuo felt that once a thread of life was planted in Linghujiu, although he could succeed and control it, he would definitely be noticed by the other party. "Linghu wine has a deep foundation, and it can actually resist my magical power to a certain extent!" "It seems that he, like me, is well versed in hiding clumsiness. I just don't know which one of us has hidden it more and deeper." Ning Zhuo was shocked in his heart, but his face showed no signs of it. Since Linghujiu likes fine wine, he drinks it frequently. "please." "please!" "Please!" After drinking ten bowls of Linghu wine, I was still not satisfied. His face was red, his eyebrows were dancing, his breath was full of alcohol, and his movements became larger.
"Good wine, good wine." Drinking helped his poetry, and he said: "The ice jade enters the throat and is so cold that it cuts to the bone. When you are drunk, you can see the love in your heart." "The sweet aftertaste lingers on the tongue for a long time, and Kanda's energy and sea soar together!" Ning Zhuo's eyes flashed and he admired Linghujiu for his literary style. He was about to respond to a poem when Linghujiu suddenly spoke. Just listen to him say: "Brother Ning Zhuo, what do you want to do with my junior sister Shanshan?" Ning Zhuo let out a soft ah, feeling that Linghu Jiu's words were like a sudden sword thrusting straight at him, catching him off guard. He gently placed the cup in his hand on the stone table with a solemn look on his face: "Miss Lin and I hit it off right away." "I came to the Precious Land this time to seek advice and alliance." "Ms. Lin has a simple heart and is hospitable. She has helped me many times and has been grounded." "My friends' kindness is engraved in my heart, and I will surely repay you generously in the future!" Linghu stared at Ning Zhuo with drunken eyes, smelling of alcohol. But at this moment, Ning Zhuo felt as if his heart had been penetrated by Linghu Jiu, leaving nothing to hide. Linghu Jiu pointed his finger at Ning Zhuo: "What a good boy, you actually mean what you say!" "Hehehe." "Hahaha!" He raised his head and laughed, his eyes moist, and he wiped his tears in front of Ning Zhuo without any concern for his own image. Linghujiu's emotions were complicated and difficult to describe. On the one hand, there's relief. The junior sister in his heart was not favored by outsiders. On the other hand, there are also grievances and depression. The junior sister in his heart has been so dedicated, yet she has not yet been noticed by outsiders! Seeing that Ning Zhuo was stunned and speechless, with a puzzled look on his face, Linghu Jiu sighed: "I'm sorry, Master Ning Zhuo. I have a talent called Zuiyue Xunxian." "As long as I drink good wine and am in a state of drunkenness, my mind will soar, my inspiration will continue, I will have insight into the world, and I will penetrate into the inner world." "I just asked you a question. If I use my talent, I will know that what you said is true." "To be honest, not only Lauder and others misunderstood you, but I also misunderstood you!" Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "Ziyue Xunxian?" "No matter what, it is a great blessing for me to be able to resolve this misunderstanding." "Brother Linghu, there is no need to apologize. On the contrary, I want to thank you." As he spoke, he raised his glass.
Linghu Jiu also picked up the wine bowl, the two of them clinked the cups and drank it all in one gulp. Linghujiu looked Ning Zhuo up and down, and suddenly sighed: "I know why my junior sister likes you." He pointed at Ning Zhuo: "Junior sister obeys my master the most, her father, the sect leader of my sect." "You look so upright and upright, you look a lot like my master." Ning Zhuo quickly humbled himself and said that he was so virtuous and capable that he could compare with a Nascent Soul Daxiu like Lin Bufan. Linghujiu suddenly stood up: "Wait a moment, Bingyujiu is not busy drinking for now. I will also treat you to a drink." He took a few long steps and walked to the stone bed. He touched the edge of the bed and took out a jar of wine. Linghu Jiu sat back down, placed the wine on the stone table, and proudly showed off: "I have been imprisoned many times, so I set up a secret storage array here and collected some Good wine.” "Whenever I feel unbearably lonely and unbearably thirsty, I will take out a bottle to relieve my hangover and cravings." "This wine is called Yousi Mingniang, and it will be very useful to you, Mr. Ning Zhuo." Linghujiu picked up the jar and poured it for Ning Zhuo. He introduced: "The main ingredients of this wine are water from the underworld and night grass, and the auxiliary ingredients are moon dew, dark jade, and nine-tailed fox tears." "After drinking it, my thoughts can spread to the underworld, and I can realize the wisdom of the predecessors and get guidance from the underworld." Linghu Jiu sighed and continued: "I have the talent to drunken the moon and seek immortals, so my master specially invited an expert from the spiritual kitchen to brew this wine for me. My practice has been greatly benefited by this wine." "please!" Ning Zhuo was aroused with a lot of curiosity. He solemnly picked up the wine glass and looked at it carefully. You can see that You Si Ming Brewing is dark blue in color, with a little bit of shimmer. He brought it close to the tip of his nose and smelled it carefully. The aroma of the wine was so light that it was almost nonexistent, but it immediately made Ning Zhuo's mind clear and peaceful. "Boss, I want to drink." Ning Zhuo said. In the trap, Sun Lingtong swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "You brat, you have to eat and drink well outside, but I have to look after you, boss. Remember to leave some for me." Ning Zhuo calmed down and took a sip. The wine slides over the tip of the tongue, with a hint of bitterness in the sweetness, just like the ups and downs of life. After the wine enters the abdomen, a warm feeling spreads from the inside out. The mysterious power from the spirit wine flows through the body, bringing an unprecedented tranquility and serenity. In a daze, Ning Zhuo "saw" someone. "I am the God of the Five Elements! The secrets of the Five Elements are all in my hands. The five spirits and five gods listen to my orders, and no one dares to disobey." "Young descendants, do you want my five internal organs temple spirit magic?" "Hahaha, listen up!"
"The five elements are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth; the five internal organs are the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. The five elements belong to the five internal organs, and each performs its own duties. They are mutually reinforcing and inhibiting each other, and the cycle is endless..." Ning Zhuo concentrated his attention and listened carefully. As a result, the words spoken by the Lord of Five Elements became softer and weaker, and eventually even the figure disappeared. "What's going on?" Ning Zhuo opened his eyes suddenly. Sober. Ning Zhuo felt disappointed. Linghujiu laughed: "It seems that Mr. Ning Zhuo has realized the benefits of this wine." "Do you still want to drink?" Ning Zhuo was not polite and said eagerly: "Please pour some wine." After drinking another glass, he saw the Five Elements God Lord with a simple face and a divine majesty again. The god continued to recite his five internal organs and temple spirit magic skills. This time, after talking for a short while, he disappeared again. Ning Zhuo opened his eyes: "More, more." Linghujiu laughed. Ning Zhuo took away his glass cup and looked at Linghujiu: "Brother, do you have a bowl?"
