Waiting for Qu Wuming to meet Han Tian and Yun Feng in Changqing City, to being chased by the Phantom Sound Witch until he was seriously injured, and then to being given elixirs and treasures by Han Tian. His cultivation reached two levels in a row, one after another.
After telling each story, Geng Liqiu was amazed. After hearing this, he couldn't help but yearn for this little brother Qu Wuming had befriended, and wished he could go to Lingyin Sect to make friends with him.
"Brother Qu, in this case, little brother Han Tian has indeed shown kindness to Brother Qu." Geng Liqiu now understood why Qu Wuming was so determined to go to the underworld, "But, are you sure he
Will you need these? If it is as Brother Qu said, I feel that little brother Han Tian may not be able to appreciate the Supreme Alchemist Order."
"He may not be able to use the Alchemist Order, but the opportunity to study in the Alchemy Pagoda for half a year is not something that just any alchemist can get." Qu Wuming replied, "You know, if you study in the Alchemy Pagoda, you will have the opportunity to read the alchemy.
The Alchemist's Handbook, the foundation of the alchemy sect, is the top book on alchemy in the ten directions. Not everyone even in the Alchemy Sect has the opportunity to study it. With Han Tian's talent in alchemy and his
If I study in the Alchemy Pagoda for another half a year, my attainments will probably be unmatched by anyone in the Alchemy Path in the future."
"Brother Qu is indeed a person who knows how to repay his kindness. He can fight for this opportunity for Han Tian to venture to the underworld. Brother, I really admire him! Come on, give Brother Qu another drink!" Geng Liqiu smacked his lips, picked up the wine cup and said.
"Why do you look like a jealous little lady?" Qu Wuming picked up the wine cup, laughed and said, "Han Tian is my brother, and you are also my brother. If there is something suitable for you, brother, in the future, why?
Brother will fight for you as well."
"Brother Qu is joking, haha." Geng Liqiu also laughed when he heard this, "Brother Qu knows this little brother, and he is also my little brother. When this beast tide passes, sooner or later I will find an opportunity to get acquainted with them.
Fan."
The two of them chatted a lot while changing cups. Geng Liqiu even told Qu Wuming all the information he had heard about the outsiders in the Void Refining Stage so that Qu Wuming could prepare in advance in the underworld.
After drinking and eating, Geng Liqiu invited Qu Wuming to live in his mansion, but Qu Wuming declined.
Geng Liqiu knew that Qu Wuming was going to that place, so he stopped insisting.
After Geng Liqiu was sent away, Qu Wuming only used a little luck to dispel the drunkenness in his body. Just as Geng Liqiu expected, Qu Wuming walked straight towards the south of the city.
————
Most of the people living in the southern city of Snow City are ordinary people with no cultivation, and on the edge of the southern city, there is a special area that occupies a large area.
Strictly speaking, the real "landowner" here is Qu Wuming.
It's just that Qu Wuming doesn't have a room of his own here, so he can only stay in the guest room every time he comes.
Lin's Anjiyuan.
It is the largest Anjiyuan in Xueyu City. It not only houses hundreds of lonely elderly people or people with disabilities at most, but also has specialized staff responsible for caring for and educating the orphans sent here.
Because it is on the front line against the monsters in the Far North, there are often lonely old people in the snowy city who have lost their support, or soldiers who have been injured in battle and are unable to take care of themselves, or people who have lost their loved ones since childhood.
An orphan who lost his parents.
For their livelihood, Xueyu City has always supported and cared for charitable groups such as Yangjitang and Anjiyuan. After all, the existence of such groups has added an extra layer of security to the people of Xueyu City.
, it can also give ordinary people who choose to join the army an extra sense of warmth and peace of mind.
In fact, more than 200 years ago, Lin's Anjiyuan was just a small private courtyard. A widow named Lin took in seven or eight children who had lost their parents. By working hard at everything, the neighbors
The financial support and some savings accumulated previously were barely enough to survive.
Until one day, a tall monk with only a few inches of black hair on his head, who seemed to have just returned to secular life, passed by the door of Widow Lin's house. He happened to hear the conversation between the two older children in the yard, and couldn't help but stop, opened the door and walked in.
.
Because he heard the two children mention a name - Wanqing's mother.
The tall monk who returned to secular life was Qu Wuming who had left Xuanfa Temple not long ago.
After some questioning, Qu Wuming was disappointed to find that this Lin Wanqing was not the other Lin Wanqing, but he was still deeply moved by this Lin Wanqing's actions. Then he thought about the fact that Lin Wanqing had also not hesitated to lend a helping hand to others when they needed it.
, Qu Wuming made up his mind at that time and wanted to stay and help Lin Wanqing.
Compared to ordinary people, Qu Wuming can actually be considered a wealthy man.
In fact, there is no shortage of "mundane things" such as gold and silver in the body of a cultivator. Moreover, for those who have achieved a little success in cultivating the Dao, not only are they not short of it, but they will also find ways to accumulate more, because after all, ordinary people often need to use their own money.
When doing things on your own, especially for ordinary people who hold great power or are rich in resources, gold and silver are the best communication tools.
Since Qu Wuming was determined to help Lin Wanqing, especially after having direct contact with her and realizing that she was really a kind-hearted person, he spared no effort.
First, he spent a lot of money to buy a large residential house in the south of the city and converted it into a large-scale Anjiyuan. Then he went to the city lord's palace in person to go through the relevant registration procedures and officially hung up the title of Lin's Anjiyuan.
brand.
In order to solve the problem of shortage of manpower, Qu Wuming helped Lin Wanqing recruit many women to help here, hired a special resident doctor to stay there, and even hired a special teacher to teach the orphans culture. In just two or three days,
Within a few months, this place was built into the largest and best-equipped Anjiyuan in Xueyu City, and Lin Wanqing, who had worked hard for half his life, became the head of Lin's Anjiyuan when he was in his forties.
The first dean.
Since then, almost every few years, at most ten years, Qu Wuming will go to Snow City in Northern Xinjiang. On the one hand, he goes to Snow City to do some tasks, to hunt monsters and earn some spiritual stones, and on the other hand, he goes to Snow City to do some tasks.
On the one hand, he wanted to see the condition of Lin's Anji Yuan and leave them with enough property.
Perhaps because he knew the reason why Qu Wuming initially helped establish the Lin Family Anji Yuan, the first dean, Lin Wanqing, set a rule requiring that every subsequent dean who succeeded him must have grown up in the Anji Yuan.
He is an orphan and must be renamed "Lin Wanqing" before taking over as dean.
When Qu Wuming later learned about this rule, he was quite dumbfounded, but thinking that Dean Lin had no selfish motives in doing this, he let her go.
However, perhaps it is precisely because of this generation of Dean "Lin Wanqing" and Qu Wuming's care for this place that it has never stopped for more than two hundred years.
————
Perhaps because he discovered that Lin Wanqing had not recovered her memory after her real rebirth, Qu Wuming's rush to Lin's Anji Yuan became much slower this time.
It's not because I no longer care about this place, but when I think of that name, I feel some inexplicable pain in my heart.
"Hey... If this continues, I'm afraid I'll leave my inner demons behind." Qu Wuming walked on the road, knowing that his mentality was not very good, so he couldn't help but shake his head and sighed to himself.
Just as he was about to arrive at the entrance of Lin's Anji Yuan, Qu Wuming suddenly felt that something was not right in Anji Yuan today.
It was so quiet inside the long courtyard wall.
In the old days of Anjiyuan, there were soldiers who had retired and were not very seriously injured guarding the door. Not far after admission was the school for the orphans. At this time, the sound of reading aloud could be heard from inside. And the school's
On the other side is the workshop run by Lin's Anjiyuan. There should be noisy people at this time, and it is normal for the sound of tools to come out.
However, at this time, the disabled soldier guarding the door in the distance seemed to be sleeping soundly in his guard box, while there was no sound in the courtyard.
Qu Wuming couldn't help but frowned, and his pace quickened a lot. The huge power of divine consciousness surged out, extending over the courtyard wall into the courtyard, but soon hit a layer of restrictions.
"Who dares to make trouble here?!" Qu Wuming jumped over the courtyard wall and looked inside the nursing home. In the schools and workshops, whether they were children in class or adults working in the workshops,
At this moment, they were all swaying around and sleeping soundly. No one was found injured or injured at all, which somewhat reassured Qu Wuming.
Looking at the protective restriction covering a small part of the backyard of Anjiyuan, only the dean and the deputy dean have the authority to open it. However, there seems to be no traces of fighting in the restriction, but there are some faint traces.
You can still see sleeping people everywhere in every house.
Qu Wuming thought, and a token flew out of the storage ring. A white light shot out from the token and hit the restriction. A passage for two people to enter and exit immediately appeared on the restriction.
When Qu Wuming stepped in, the passage swayed with light and became complete again.
Qu Wuming's power of spiritual consciousness spread around, and soon he discovered the most unusual place in Anji Yuan. After thinking about it for a while, Qu Wuming took out a gray cloak and put it on his body.
His breath was completely hidden under the cloak, and then he quietly escaped towards the back of Anjiyuan.
There is a small independent building in the backyard of Anjiyuan, about two stories high, and surrounded by a separate tall wall. This is where Anjiyuan stores rice, property, account books and other important items. On weekdays, there are several people with disabilities.
The lighter sergeants patrolled and guarded, and there was a powerful formation restriction set up by Qu Wuming near the small building. Once activated, even the monks at the peak of the God Transformation Stage could not easily break it.
After all, this is Snow City, the first line of resistance against monsters. Qu Wuming had set up such a powerful restriction earlier to give people here a place to temporarily escape and hide in extreme situations. Unexpectedly, he was now in Snow City.
