Quarry, stone cliff in the woods.

"Lu Jingnan, Lu Qian, the information you two have is of great use to me. I, Cao Cuo, never owe anyone cause and effect. You can each make a request, as long as it is within my ability."

Cao Cuo looked at the two of them and asked with a smile:

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Although the theory of cause and effect is illusory, it is recorded in the book that old man Xuehe had a vague sense of his own cause and effect in his later years.

It is better to believe that this matter exists than to believe that it does not exist.

Of course, it also depends on the conditions. He should not be a big enemy.

Lu Jingnan suddenly wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Cao Cuo secretly used magic to stop him.

He did not force himself to hold up his hands and said: "Master Immortal, the little female deer Qingmei now possesses Taoist bones, but the origin is strange. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."

He bowed solemnly and begged sincerely: "I beg the immortal master to accept my little girl as his disciple and take her on the path of spiritual practice!"

Cao Cuo pondered for a moment and replied: "My cultivation level is still shallow and I have no plans to accept a disciple for the time being, but I can teach her the cultivation method for a period of time."

Lu Jingnan was a little disappointed, but he still pulled his daughter and asked her to kowtow to thank her.

"With light eyebrows, I kowtow three times to the immortal master and thank him for agreeing to teach me the Dharma."

Lu Qingmei regained some of her energy after being stunned. She was very obedient and immediately knelt down.

First he kowtowed three times, and then he kowtowed three more times:

"Please... please! Save my dad!"

Lu Qingmei's voice was clear and crisp, and she had already cried into tears. The blood left on her forehead mixed with the tears on her face.

She did not lose consciousness and knew that her father was about to die.

Lu Qingmei trembled and said: "I will give you my bones...save my dad...is that okay?"

Lu Jingnan hugged his daughter and stopped her from talking, his eyes turned red.

"Don't talk nonsense! Dad is fine..."

When Cao Cuo saw this scene of deep love between father and daughter, he also felt compassion. He nodded and said, "Little girl, I can try my best to stabilize your father's injury."

The little girl's gray eyes seemed to light up, her tears stopped, and a faint smile appeared on her stunned face.

Lu Jingnan was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. He thought he would not survive for a few days after taking the stone medicine. Unexpectedly, this young immortal master really had the means to save him.

Cao Cuo waved his hand, turned his head and looked at Lu Qian with a half-smile, and said, "What about you? Lu Qian, what do you want?"

Lu Qian was frightened for a while. His tone didn't sound like he wanted to benefit himself, but that he wanted to eat people...

Lu Qian suddenly knelt down, kowtowed with tears and said: "I beg the Immortal Master to accept me as your servant, so that I can serve you in front of and behind the horse, and imbibe some of the spirit of the Immortal Family."

Cao Cuo smiled slightly and nodded with satisfaction: "Since you are so sincere, I promise you, give you this opportunity, and accept you as my servant!"

Lu Qian was cursing in his heart, "Sincerely, you are a ghost."

Cao Cuo calculated in his mind that Lu Qian was a senior member of the Stone Alliance, and if he wanted to get the Jade Monument, he would have to rely on his efforts.

A quarter of an hour later.

Cao Cuo finished cleaning up the scene.

Take the three people back to Shiya Cave Mansion.

Clear out the utility room in the cave for Lu Jingnan, his daughter and Lu Qian to rest.

After a few instructions.

Cao Cuo took Lu Qingmei to the training room alone to teach him the skills.

After Lu Qingmei cried, her eyes gradually became brighter and less dull.

Cao Cuo frowned and carefully examined Lu Qingmei's eyes. His pupils were gray and white, as if they were petrified and lifeless. He asked doubtfully: "Can you see?"

Lu Qing frowned, shook his head, and nodded again.

Cao Cuo was speechless for a while: "What do you mean?"

Lu Qingmei thought hard and said pitifully: "You can't see it when you're hungry, but you can see it when you're full... I'm always hungry..."

After Cao Cuo was silent for a moment, he took Lu Qingmei to eat first, and also called Lu and Lu.

He boiled water to cook rice, and what he cooked was the yellow sprout rice that he usually eats. He filled a large pot with it, and used a stone bowl to fill a large bowl for the anxious Lu Qingmei.

The little girl shed tears while eating. The yellow rice mixed with tears was taken into her mouth with big mouthfuls. After eating it all, she held the clean empty bowl, lowered her head, and said with a slight blush:
p>

"It's delicious! I think... would you like another bowl?"

Of course Cao Cuo will not refuse.

Huangya rice can be directly used as currency in the secular world, but here it is food to fill the stomach. After Lu Qingmei is full, his eyes are indeed full of energy.

Except for the shocking amount of food, there are no other abnormalities.

After eating enough, Cao Cuo took Lu Qingmei back to the training room and officially started teaching the exercises.

He first practiced the Hundred Blade Fist, and then carefully explained the essence of it to Lu Qingmei:

"This Hundred Blade Fist is the earliest Qi-training technique that I practiced. It comes from the He family in Nanyi. Although it is not a superior technique, it is better because it can solidify the foundation. It includes fists, feet, palms and knives, and has a wide range of uses."

"Just do what I just did and see how far you can go!"

Lu Qingmei was not afraid of the stage. He stepped forward honestly and beat Cao exactly the same way. Some parts were a little rusty because he couldn't keep up with his physical fitness.

Cao Cuo was stunned when he saw it and was a little speechless:

"You... just write it all down?"

This little girl has a photographic memory.

Lu Qing’s eyebrows flashed with big eyes and she nodded blankly.

Cao Cuo was speechless for a moment. Could this be a genius girl?

"I'll teach you the breath-taking skills of Hundred Blade Fist. I hope you can master Qi Sense in time."

Half an hour later.

"Very good, the sense of qi has been developed. You are already a monk at the first level of qi training. I hope you will practice diligently and break through to the second level of qi training as soon as possible."

One month later.

"...Haste makes waste. Don't rush for success. Pay attention to laying a solid foundation. The key points of the second level of Qi training are what I just mentioned. Practice patiently. I'll leave first."

Cao ran out of the training room as if he was running away.

He was shocked.

This Lu Qingmei's qualifications are too terrifying. He has gone from practicing as a mortal to the second level of Qi training in one month. This is a performance that can only be achieved by the best Taoist masters. His qualifications are really embarrassing in front of her.

.

There is indeed something different about that Taoist bone.

But Cao Cuo would not seize the bones. Without him, it would not be contrary to Taoism!

This month he not only taught Lu Qingmei how to practice, he also prepared a big gift for Lu Jingnan and Lu Qian.

It can be done today.

Inside the insect room, the door is closed.

Cao Cuo was sitting cross-legged. In the center of the stone room was an insect pit filled with blood.

There are also some residual limbs of tigers, leopards, bears and other beasts floating on it, and thirteen green locusts the size of human heads are soaked in them.

They have been lying here this month practicing their natal Gu.

""Original Gu" originally requires monks to spend their essence and blood in sacrifices to train Gu insects, but I found another way and let the green locusts train themselves."

"Unexpectedly, this method is not only feasible, but also faster."

Cao Cuo secretly thought, this not only avoids the disadvantages of losing his own essence and blood, but also prevents the breath of the Gu insects from contaminating his own mana. Now there is only the last step left.

The thirteen Gu worms in the worm pit trembled slightly, and their bodies began to shrink and swell, floating regularly, and the surrounding blood and water were constantly being swallowed into the worm's belly.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Cao Cuo used his palm knife to cut the palm of his other hand, and after he had developed his Manggu Toad Qi, his thick essence and blood dripped into the blood of the insect pit.

Because it healed too quickly, I had to cut it twice more. It wasn't until almost 30% of the essence and blood had been lost that I activated my magic power to contract the muscles and heal the wound.

As soon as the green locust sensed the scent of its master's essence and blood, it felt like it was smelling a great tonic, and its tremors became even more violent.

It absorbs blood and water faster, until all of it is taken into its belly, and a large number of bloody runes appear on the green locust's shell.

When the blood runes were all over the bodies of the thirteen green locusts, they cried like babies and their bodies began to shrink rapidly.

It shrunk from a vicious insect the size of a human head to a poisonous insect the size of a jujube stone.

Cao Cuo reached out and took the thirteen shrunken green locusts, checked them over and over again, and said with satisfaction:
Chapter completed!
