Chapter 976: Going to the Mountain Again
Chapter 976 – Going to the Mountain Again
Xu Chuniang pushed the door into the house, and Xiaobai looked over, “Sister, is that man gone?”
“Don’t worry, he’s gone, and without incident, he will never come to us again.”
Hearing this, Xiao Bai was relieved and at the same time a little curious.
He hadn’t dealt with Fu Heng a lot in these few days, and knew how difficult he was to deal with, how did Ah Sister get rid of him and guarantee that he would never come back again?
“Ah sister, what did you say to him?”
“Nothing, just asked him to borrow some Immortal Crystals to spend, as a result, when he heard that I wanted to borrow Immortal Crystals, his face immediately changed, and he ran away as fast as he could.”
“How could it be like that?”
Xiao Bai was astonished, why didn’t he think of such a good method.
Xu Chuniang smiled and nodded, “That Fu Heng approached you and I for no reason, what he seeks is nothing more than benefits, I just need to let him know that we don’t have what he needs on us, and he will naturally leave.”
Xiao Bai nodded thoughtfully, the next time he encountered this kind of person, he knew how to deal with it.
“Sister, you went to Floating Jade City this time, how did you feel, is Floating Jade City big, are there many immortals?”
“Floating Jade City is big, and there are a lot of people, the whole Floating Jade City and the city’s protective formation, are floating in the air, the scenery is very chic.
Moreover, the immortal qi in Floating Jade City is several times thicker than Zhangwei Mountain, and it’s not cold during the day, so if we have the chance in the future, we’ll move to Floating Jade City.”
“Really?”
Xiao Bai’s eyes revealed anticipation, he was afraid of the cold, having the opportunity to leave Zhangwei Mountain was naturally the best.
Just thinking about the liabilities on the two of them, he was a little hesitant again.
“But the previous Chang Immortal friend had said that a big city like Floating Jade City has a very strict management, and if you don’t have a mansion in the city, the entry fee alone is a big expense.”
“There’s no harm in it, I’ve already found a way to earn Immortal Crystals, when some time passes and the Immortal Qi in my body recovers, I’ll go to Floating Jade City to earn Immortal Crystals.”
“Then I’ll go too!”
Xiao Bai jumped at the chance, he also wanted to earn Immortal Crystals by his own efforts.
“If you go to Floating Jade City, won’t there be no one to take care of those freshly planted immortal grasses outside? Even though there are only two Cold Frost plants planted right now, I’m sure I’ll plant more in the future.”
Xu Chuniang planned to earn money through the fighting ring, but she didn’t intend to tell Xiao Bai about it so that he wouldn’t worry.
Let’s wait until we earn enough immortal crystals in the future.
Xiao Bai revealed a difficult situation, ”Yes alas, if I go to Floating Jade City, what can I do with those immortal herbs? No no no, it seems like this Floating Jade City, I can’t go for the time being.”
“It’s okay, you can earn immortal crystals at home by taking care of the immortal grass, just be careful not to freeze yourself.”
“Don’t worry sister, I have my measure.”
The two of them chatted for a while, and went about their respective business, Xiao Bai was busy tending to the two cold frost plants in the ground, while Xu Chuniang wrapped up her fur coat tightly and meditated and cultivated outside the stone house.
With the fur coat to protect her from the cold, she wouldn’t get frostbite even if she stayed outside for three hours, and she only needed to go back to the house to rest for an hour before she could continue her cultivation, and the efficiency of absorbing Immortal Qi was increased by a lot.
Xu Chuniang meditated for eight days in a row, and one-third of the immortal qi in her body was restored.
The seeds of the Frost Grass, on the other hand, had yet to germinate.
Xiao Bai was not in a hurry, the first month after the Frost Grass was planted was the sprouting period, as long as it could sprout successfully within the next twenty days, the Frost Grass was considered to be viable.
To and Gong Lao agreed, together on the mountain cutting snow pine day, Xu Chuniang did not meditate, in the stone house quietly waiting for Gong Lao’s arrival.
Gong Lao arrived very early, the hour was not yet, appeared outside the stone house, knocked on the door of the stone house. “Go.”
Xu Chuniang understood at the sound, got up and pushed the door out, walking with Gong Lao on the path up the mountain.
Gong Lao, which was leading her, was a spacious mountain path, and from time to time, other figures ascending the mountain could be seen.
Gong Lao casually swept a glance and faintly explained.
“The people who go up the mountain at this time of the year, are all rushing to the snow pines, every month only in the middle and the end of the month, the fog on the mountain will become thin, and each time it lasts for a period of time, often not more than two days.
The path I’m taking you on today is relatively flat, but the journey is quite a bit farther.”
Xu Chuniang wrote down what Elder Gong said one by one, for those who had lived in Zhangwei Mountain for a long time, these were all common sense, but to her, they were very important.
It took twice as long as last time to get up the mountain, and after finding a new isolated cliff, the two began to get busy.
There were many lonely cliffs like this one, full of snow-covered pines, near Zhangwei Mountain, but those in shorter positions were visited by more people, while those in higher positions were less frequented.
As an Earth Immortal, Elder Gong’s cultivation was quite a bit stronger than the other Immortals who lived in Zhangwei Mountain, and he was often able to go higher.
And Xu Chuniang but just ascended human immortal, actually able to keep up with his footsteps, this is also Gong Lao high regard for her, willing to promote her the biggest reason.
When they reached the lonely cliff, the two of them each found a good target and got busy.
Xu Chuniang’s second time chopping down the snow accumulating pines, she was quite a bit more skillful than the first time, whether it was the strength or the angle, there was a great improvement.
Elder Gong cut down an Accumulated Snow Pine that was close to two hundred years old, and after putting it away, he subconsciously glanced at Xu Chuniang.
She had chosen a tree that was just over a hundred years old, and by now had already cut down half of the branches of the cumulus lupulus.
Progress is quite fast.
Gong Lao retracted his gaze and walked towards another cedar tree that he had long been interested in, and continued to work.
This cliff is very large, the cliff growing snow pine is also a lot, but the second day of the noon, Gong old man found around the wind began to become wet, and hastened to call an emergency stop.
“Fog is starting to form in the mountains, hurry up and stop, we have to go down the mountain.”
Xu Chuniang put away her quarrying chisel and followed Gong Lao’s lead, flying towards the main peak of Zhangwei Mountain on the opposite side.
She had just flown over, and before she could stand firmly on her feet, she saw the clear scene in the distance begin to blur.
They were in a higher position, and the fog had started relatively earlier.
However, Gong Lao had spent hundreds of years in Zhangwei Mountain, and knew most of the changes in the mountain, and made a timely decision the moment he realized that the fog had started to rise, bringing Xu Chuniang down the mountain with him, so he wasn’t trapped on the mountain after all.
Other people who went up the mountain to cut down the snow pines also gradually realized the changes in the mountain and started to go down the mountain one after another.
Those who were unlucky enough to be left behind were trapped in the dense fog, and from time to time, a few miserable screams were heard.
“Not good, there are fog beasts!”
Hearing the miserable screams coming from behind them, the faces of the few people who were descending the mountain immediately changed, accelerating their pace down the mountain.
Mountain fog was a natural barrier for fog beasts, with fog as a cover, fog beasts were equal to being invincible.
After falling into the fog and encountering a fog beast, those who are more fortunate will suffer some injuries or be able to escape.
If the luck is not good, may even lose their lives in the mouth of the fog beasts.
