Senior sister, don't be stubborn, you are already invincible.

Chapter 381 Business Journey

The scenery passes by easily, and it is another year of spring break.

When Tang Shi was traveling with a caravan for the main medicine of the Foundation Building Pill, Ji Heng, the daughter of the Ji clan leader, who was only twenty-two years old, succeeded in forming the Pill.

The Ji family held a feast to celebrate.

All the famous clans in Qizhou sent representatives to attend.

……

After the ice and snow melt, everything revives.

Occasionally, dewdrops fall from the branches and leaves in the forest and fall to the ground, making a crisp sound.

A traveling caravan stopped by the mountain road to rest for the night.

As the sun rose, a group of people began to get busy one after another.

The tent set up yesterday was dismantled and the unloaded goods were loaded back into the carriage.

A crisp ringing sound came, and someone shouted: "Hurry up, faster!"

When a group of people heard this, they became even more busy.

suddenly.

"Wow—"

A loud cry resounded through the forest, and then a cry of surprise was heard: "Is there a monster?!"

"Attention, protect the young master and protect the goods!"

The crowd suddenly panicked and took out their weapons to prepare for a fight.

However, a white crane spread its wings and passed over everyone's heads.

Standing on the white crane are a man and a woman.

The man's robes were flying, his face was as handsome as a god and as cold as a knife, there was a hint of sharpness and majesty between his eyebrows, and his pair of dark eyes were like a vast sea of ​​stars, making it impossible to look directly at him.

The woman is wearing a light pink dress, with a gold and jade girdle tied around her waist. Her long, soft black hair is held up by an emerald hairpin. Her delicate and small facial features are bright and moving, and she has an elegant smile at the corner of her mouth, like a blooming peony flower. , people can't take their eyes away.

The two of them stood side by side, like a match made in heaven and earth.

The white crane flew away quickly, leaving only an afterimage.

The monks were so shocked by that man that they couldn't recover for a long time.

"That woman, if I guessed correctly, should be Ji Heng, the daughter-in-law of the Ji clan leader, right?"

"It's her. I heard that she was already forming elixirs when she was only in her twenties. When I saw her today, I was really shocked by her talent and beauty!"

"Ji has invited many nobles from aristocratic families to come to watch the ceremony and congratulate her. She has already become a golden elixir monk at a young age, and her future achievements will surely be limitless!"

"If the Ji family can produce such a figure, the Ji family may rise in the future..."

"Who is the person next to Ji Heng? He actually allowed her to accompany him to the ceremony in person. Judging from the closeness between them, it seems that they have a close relationship!"

"Hey, who else could it be? Miss Ji's fiancé, Xu Yunshen of the Xu family!"

The crowd groaned.

"The eldest son of the Xu family, the number one clan in Qizhou?!"

"It is said that Mr. Xu has also formed an elixir, six months earlier than Miss Ji!"

"He is also a very talented person. The two of them really match each other~"

"..."

Arguments erupted one after another.

Among the crowd, a woman wearing a brown brocade jacket narrowed her eyes and stared thoughtfully at the two people leaving each other.

"What are you talking about? Get to work quickly!"

A middle-aged man who looked like a steward walked into the crowd and yelled.

The monks fell silent and began to work on their own.

The middle-aged steward glanced around, and finally stopped at the woman.

"Girl, everyone is gone. Don't look around. Quickly pack your things and set off."

He is the manager of this caravan. He only knows his surname as Wang, and everyone calls him Uncle Wang.

Hearing this, Tang Shi looked back at him and nodded: "Oh, okay."

After saying this, she stepped forward and put away her luggage.

She is a woman who encounters obstacles everywhere in her career. Only Uncle Wang does not dislike her and is willing to accept her.

Let her serve as a guard and earn spiritual stones while practicing.

Gave her a place to settle down.

Half an hour later, the group continued moving forward.

Bumpy all the way.

The sun was high in the sky, and it was so hot that it almost burned my skin.

In the carriage, Tang Shi sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and silently recited the secret to guide the movement of spiritual energy in his body.

"call......"

She exhaled a breath and slowly opened her eyes. A ray of spiritual power overflowed from her body, forming a circle of white mist around her, shrouding her in it.

She felt that the spiritual power in her body was more concentrated.

There is still a long way to go before forming a pill.

But if she had a Foundation Building Pill now, she would be able to successfully build the Foundation immediately.

It's a pity that she didn't, so she could only stay stuck in refining Qi and reaching perfection.

This is the disadvantage of having no resources.

Tang Shi sighed, jumped off the carriage, and walked on the rugged mountain road with the other monks who were traveling with him.

She is just an accompanying escort, carriages are not unique to her.

"Not bad, girl, your cultivation has improved again."

Uncle Wang's gentle voice came to my ears.

Tang Shi turned to look at Uncle Wang beside him, the corners of his lips raised, and his white teeth exposed a small fang: "Uncle Wang, I have to thank you for providing me with a training place!"

"Hahaha....."

Uncle Wang laughed twice, then suddenly remembered something and frowned.

"Most people with your qualifications would have resigned themselves to their fate long ago, but you girl is unwilling to be mediocre. You practice whenever you have time. However, in the end, you are just lingering around the perfection of Qi refining."

"The higher you go in cultivation, the harder it becomes. The importance of qualifications becomes even more obvious. Even if you are lucky enough to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, you can only stop at the Foundation Establishment stage."

"You repeat this boring practice day after day. Is it really worth it?"

Uncle Wang looked at Tang Shi with twinkling eyes.

Tang Shi smiled and said: "There is no value in practicing. I feel that every boring practice is beneficial to me, and I have not gained anything."

Uncle Wang was slightly startled, then shook his head and laughed.

Seeing Tang Shi walking towards the front of the team, his eyes showed a desolate look and he murmured in a low voice.

"Hey, young child, if your efforts are useful, there won't be so many mediocre people in this world. The qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots are not obvious in the early stages of practice, but when you reach the stage of forming pills, the cold and cruel reality will become clear. Destroy your hopes bit by bit.”

"Gap will temper your enthusiasm, and setbacks will dampen your fighting spirit. Will you still persevere in this boring practice?"

……

The caravan traveled to various cities, villages, villages, and even deserted mountains.

Every time you reach a cottage village, you will stay there for seven days.

After seven days, everyone took their luggage with them and headed to the next town together with the goods collected in the village.

In the evening, the caravan rested beside a creek about thirty miles away from the next town.

The stream is gurgling, and the surface of the stream is as calm as a mirror.

On the river bank, the leaves were falling, and a red sun was hanging in the sky.

At this time.

Suddenly, several sounds broke through the air, interrupting this peaceful and peaceful scene.

I saw more than a hundred people galloping towards me on fast horses, rushing forward in the blink of an eye.
