The days in Chenhua City were as peaceful as ever, and gambling houses that made a lot of money were opening one after another. One of the gambling houses made a sound of surprise from time to time, attracting passers-by to watch, which in turn attracted more people.

Passing through the crowds, one can see mountains of spiritual stones placed beside the gaming table.

Gu Wen played four identical cards, which suddenly made the mountain of spiritual stones pile up to a higher level. The last gambler left the game, and the deacon of the Qianfeng Sect behind the gambling house stepped forward.

First, he asked the other guests to leave, and then bowed down to Gu and Wen, saying: "You two seniors are running a small shop, so please show your respect."

Akabane frowned and said: "You are doing business normally. I win money normally, why are you so patronizing? Do you want to default on your debts and only allow the gambling house to make money and not allow others to win?"

A wisp of breath pressed against the boss of the gambling shop, which immediately made his waist bend even more, and he explained repeatedly: "Of course not, these spiritual stones are all used as filial piety to our seniors."

"What kind of filial piety? Do you doubt that we will succeed?"

"Don't dare, absolutely don't dare."

"Don't dare to doubt?"

Before Chi Yuzi could make the golden elixir monk cry, Gu Wen said: "Let's stop playing here today, and don't embarrass others."

Akabane was still a little stubborn and said: "We gamble normally and don't spend thousands. The rules of this leaf trick are simple and purely based on luck. All the tools have the effect of shielding spiritual consciousness. There is no way that high cultivation will give you an advantage."

This was tantamount to a disguised slander that Gu Wen was cheating, which she could not tolerate.

"Okay, okay, that's it."

Gu Wen stroked Chiyuzi's head like he was soothing a tiger. He understood that he couldn't reason with the other person and could only stroke her hair along the way.

Akabaneko, to put it nicely, is fair and strict. She speaks the truth and is very forthright. When it comes time to argue with others, she is often the one to stand up, so she has to speak emotionally.

"I just came to play a few games. It looks pretty good and it's enough to have fun."

Gu Wen looked at the golden elixir monk and asked: "Shopkeeper, this card game called Ye Zixi is a good game. Can you sell me a pair?"

"No need to buy it, I'll get it for you."

The golden elixir monk clicked repeatedly, and then asked someone to fetch a light golden deck of cards.

Gu Wen played with the leaf cards, which were similar to the leaf games played by his ancestors in previous lives, but simpler.

Luck is more important. If there is skill, then even without cheating, people with high cultivation will have an advantage.

The complete unknown is suitable for all ages.

"How old is the shopkeeper?"

"More than seven hundred."

"Have you ever heard of Qinghua Cake?"

The golden elixir monk seemed to be awakened to a long memory. He pondered for a moment and said: "I ate it when I was a child, but the years have changed, and now it has been lost with the disappearance of the Ninghua Sect."

"The secret recipe is lost?"

"It should be that the special clear flowers used to make clear flower cakes have disappeared. There was not only one seller of clear flower cakes back then, but the only seller of clear flowers was the Ninghua Sect, and its incense was widely sold in the thirty-six continents of the human race."

"Thank you."

Gu Wen walked out of the gambling house. Chi Yuzi was half a step behind and asked, "Do you need me to catch that heir?"

"Since it's not a secret recipe issue, there's no need to go to all the trouble. She will come back."

At this time, in the busy streets and alleys, pedestrians were heard talking about the Thousand Phoenix Sect from time to time.

The descendants of the Ninghua Sect are being persecuted by the Qianfeng Sect, and the position of Tianzun may not be guaranteed. In Huajianzhou, the owner of the matter is about to change.

Akabane naturally heard it, and she asked again: "Can you help that witch? According to the current situation, if you don't take action, there is a high probability that you will not be able to keep your position as Tianzun."

"It depends."

Gu Wen's answer was ambiguous. Such an ambiguous attitude made Chi Yuzi irritated. He snorted coldly: "You guys always like to hide things in your heart."

"Hiding one's mind is also part of spiritual practice."

"Everything can be related to spiritual practice. Is this Qinghua cake you are looking for also a spiritual practice?"

"Of course, yes." Gu Wen replied seriously: "All living beings have feelings, and time is ruthless. When a being lives for tens of millions of years, all his emotions and desires will be worn away by time. Some people are used to it, and some people cut off their emotions.

"

"Yu Hua told me that Qinghua cake can enlighten the Tao and have feelings."

Akabane's face was full of doubts: "Really? If this thing is really so magical, how could it be lost? I had never heard of it eight hundred years ago."

"Can she still lie to me?"

"Um"

Chi Yuzi pondered, then shook his head and said:

"Maybe the specially made Qinghua cake has this effect? ​​Just like some people use wine to make medicine, there is also talk about medicinal diet in the spiritual world. I heard that the best chefs can cook medicinal meals that can help people break through the return period."

Gu Wen said: "We will go to the Ninghua Sect's mountain gate next. Yu Nan, do you know the location?"

Xie Yunan took out a jade slip, read it for a while, and said: "It is eight hundred miles away from Chenhua City. Due to the decline of the Ninghua Sect, it should be managed by the Lord's Mansion of Chenhua City now. When the descendants become the true kings, they will be returned to Ninghua.

Huazong, so as not to bring death to them."

——

Eight hundred miles away from Chenhua City, there is a snow-covered mountain peak.

There are forests for hundreds of miles below the mountain, and flowers for hundreds of miles on the mountain.

White flowers bloom all over the mountain, stretching for 100,000 acres along layer after layer of terraces and along thousands of streams.

Gu and Wen came from the air, looked at the flower fields at their feet, and smelled the familiar fragrance on their noses.

It turned out that the sachet she used was made of clear flowers.

Below, a Jindan monk rose into the air, and his aura turned out to be the Yuqing sect's technique.

He raised his hands to Gu and Wen and said, "Fellow Taoists, why do you come to Qinghua Mountain?"

Flying in the air is a symbol of the Golden Core Stage monks, and standing still above a certain spiritual mountain is equivalent to standing at the door of someone else's house and peering around.

Gu Wen politely held up his hands and said: "I came here looking for a Qinghua cake. After asking around and learning about the Qinghua here, I was able to make the Qinghua cake eight hundred years ago."

The Jindan monk said: "I am only three hundred years old, and I have never heard of Qinghua Cake. And this is private land, and fellow Taoists are not allowed to explore at will. Please forgive me."

"What are you whining about? Get out of the way and let me come. Whose ancestor is being polite to the younger generation?"

Chi Yuzi squeezed Gu Wen away and flew out a token, all golden and red, with a deficit like fire.

The golden elixir monk looked shocked. He looked at the token, and then at the short-haired girl who was five and a half feet tall in front of him. His eyes flashed with expressions of disbelief, surprise, and panic.

Then he took out the black iron-colored token from his arms, and a spiritual light flew from it and disappeared into Akabane's token.

In an instant, the Jindan cultivator respectfully bowed his hands and said: "Yun Cui, a true disciple of Cuiguan, a branch of the Yuqing sect, pays homage to Chi Tianzun. Your Majesty has arrived. This junior does not know his true identity and is frightened."

His body was trembling slightly, and the excitement in his voice could not be suppressed.

The Yuqing Sect has not had a Tianzun in charge for eight hundred years, so Chi Yuzi naturally took the place of the Yuqing Tianzun and was respected by the disciples of the Yuqing Sect.

This true legend of the Yuqing Sect has seen the nine-foot-long golden man, but he has never seen the five-and-a-half-foot petite true body of Chi Yuzi.

Akabaneko asked: "The Yuqing sect is still responsible for managing the inheritance?"

Yun Cui weakly corrected him: "Ahem, this is the hometown of Zhonglie. It is naturally managed by the Taoist Sect. Otherwise, the descendants would not be at ease if others come."

Every year, Dao Zong sends a large number of disciples down the mountain to inspect various parties, and some of them take over a certain spiritual land. This is not only to protect the sect that has withered due to the human-monster war, but also to intimidate all parties.

Once anything happens, Daozong can learn about it and respond.

"Who are these two seniors?"

Xie Yunan introduced herself: "I'm here to tell you the true story of Zhejian Mountain. Brother Taoist is older than me, so I can't be my senior."

"Hiss! Fairy is Tianxuan's number one and the most outstanding Fairy Xie in the contemporary era?"

Yun Cui's eyes suddenly shone, and she cheered repeatedly.

Then he looked at the last ordinary man. He couldn't tell the difference in cultivation, but he was traveling with Chi Tianzun, so he must not be a small person.

He raised his hands and asked, "Dare you ask me your senior's name?"

The ordinary man had a friendly smile and a gentle voice: "I am a poor man in this mortal world."

"So it's Senior Hongchen?" Yun Cui's heartbeat almost stopped, and she stumbled and asked, "What's your name?"

"I am a poor man in this mortal world."

"."

Yun Cui was silent for a long time, and her whole body was stunned.

Outsiders may not know this Taoist name, but Yuqing sect disciples have been hearing about it since they entered the mountain sect.

Isn't this the ancestor of our Yuqing sect? The ancestor just surrendered to me. Will I be expelled from the mountain gate when I return?

Thinking of this, Yun Cui's hands started to tremble. He didn't want to be expelled just because he entered the mountain gate with his right foot.

Chi Yuzi added: "This is your ancestor, your master has to kowtow when he sees it."

Gu Wen is a disciple of Immortal Qing Cang, one generation higher than the two Heavenly Lords Yunmiao Huayang.
