The pear tree on the wall is snowy and delicate

Chapter 83: Busy with Repairs

Under the eaves, Lingxiang was sitting leisurely with her legs crossed, a bag of pine seeds in her arms. While peeling them, she looked up at the three busy people and said a few words from time to time.

"Hey! Put that piece of wood firmly on the ground, or water will accumulate between the linoleum!"

"The beams can be made of fine fir, and the mortise and tenon joints can be made strong! Although this is not a palace and I cannot afford golden nanmu, it should at least last a hundred or eighty years, right?"

"Tsk tsk tsk! Don't waste the remaining wood. This is Huanghuali wood. Make me two sets of chopping boards and small tables to put under the eaves. I can play mahjong or something when I have nothing to do."

……

Long Qi had experienced Ling Xiang's bossy attitude in Youran Residence, and he was used to her behavior. He just ignored it. It was not the first time Xin Yi had seen it, so she naturally did not take it seriously and just focused on her work. However, Ren Dong was very surprised. Although Elder Fu Cang was her master, he was younger than her. She did not expect him to be like this...

The eyes make the command!

When Maidong arrived, he saw Lingxiang lying on a rocking chair with her eyes closed. She had just begged for this rocking chair from the old man with a bamboo cane. The bamboo body of the chair was so comfortable to lie on.

"You, the Eight Bricks Scholar, are lazy here, but you let these three do the hard labor, and you feel at ease."

Lingxiang didn't even open her eyes when she heard that, and answered lazily: "Nominally speaking, I am the master of the three of them, so naturally I have to order them around. Besides, this house has been renovated, isn't it also for the three of them to live in? Do I still ask them to run back and forth from Youyuan Palace to here every day? If you go to Youyuan Palace every day, you can't be as unscrupulous as you are when you come to my place, right?"

After hearing this, Maidong felt that this made sense, so he sat down with Lingxiang and grabbed a handful of pine seeds and started peeling them.

When Honeysuckle saw this, she sighed in her heart: Birds of a feather flock together. The old saying is true.

……

Wu Yuan, Chi Yanzi and the others hurried along the way. In half an hour's walk, they would be out of the Barbarian Continent. However...

A strong wind whistled past Chi Yanzi's ear, and he dodged to the side in a hurry, only to see a dagger deeply stuck in the ground. Looking back, he saw that the black-clothed demon general had chased him here!
He was seen flying over with the devil wind, the devil blade in his hand glowing purple. Chi Yanzi hurriedly made hand gestures, and a large stone immediately appeared around his body, and instantly broke into many stone cones that flew towards the black-clothed demon general.

The black-clothed demon general charged forward fiercely, and when he saw Chi Yanzi's magic coming, he hurriedly used his skills to resist. However, when the stone spikes were about to hit him, they turned into thick smoke and dispersed around him, making it impossible for him to see what was ahead.

Seeing that the magic was effective, Chi Yanzi hurriedly pulled Wu Yuan and ran forward. Across the border ahead was Lindong. It seemed that the people of the Demon Clan would not dare to set foot out of the Barbarian Continent.

Although Wu Yuan was in a very embarrassing situation, he started to laugh: "Old man, do you have no other tricks? Why do you resort to such a deceptive trick?"

Chi Yanzi was not aware of him after hearing this: "This Wubenxiang Jue is a way to save life and delay. My magic weapon is completely destroyed and has not been repaired. How can I fight him? Can you beat him?"

"You've never seen me use my true strength, so how do you know I can't beat you?"

"I have never seen your true ability, but I know that you have been defeated by Lingxiang before." Chi Yanzi said without turning his head, looking at the road intently.

Wu Yuan blushed when he heard this: "That little girl cheated me and tricked me. Besides, when did I lose to her?"

"A fox monster with profound cultivation fell into the trap of a little girl. If you tell others about it, people will laugh their heads off. You are still pretending to be nonchalant, but you are probably covering it up because you are ashamed!" Chi Yanzi said as he took out two paper figures from his sleeves and started to practice the Wubenxiang Jue. Immediately, two more people appeared beside him, who looked exactly like him. As soon as they appeared, they changed direction and ran towards the south.

"That little girl is so cunning that even a fox spirit would be tricked by her. My cultivation of only a hundred years is nothing."

Thinking of Lingxiang's face in his dream, Wu Yuan couldn't help but laugh. He wondered what the little fox was doing now.

……

The house in Xianyunju was finally renovated before the Lantern Festival, and Long Qi and the other two moved in from Youyuan Palace. Although this place is full of wooden houses with thatched roofs, it has everything you need, and living here can make people feel peaceful, so it can be regarded as a good place for cultivation.

But Long Qi has always been curious as to why Lingxiang forbade them to enter the side room and never saw her going in or out to clean.

It's so weird, there must be something fishy!

Xinyi has reached the Jindan stage and his cultivation is higher than Lingxiang. Lingxiang originally wanted him to teach Long Qi Rendong how to practice, but who knew that he didn't know Taoism, and his cultivation was actually gained through martial arts. He only knew some techniques to improve his martial arts skills.

In fact, this is not surprising. Most of the demon-killing families in the mortal world practice martial arts, and most of the demons they kill are low-level demons. If a family is lucky enough to have a great martial artist at the level of martial arts, they can also subdue mid-level demons. However, in today's world where spiritual roots are scarce, it is difficult for martial artists to reach such a level.

Moreover, the path of martial arts cultivation is limited. From ancient times to the present, those who have reached the highest level are only at the level of martial arts spirit. If a demon hunter wants to further improve his cultivation, he will often turn to the pursuit of the truth of Tao, or practice Taoism, or comprehend Buddhism.

However, although the practice of martial arts is limited, if one uses martial arts as a foundation and then practices Taoism, as long as one crosses the threshold of cultivating the mind, then the path will be smooth and open.

Lingxiang originally thought that if Xinyi was here, she would just be going through the motions, but she didn't expect that in the end she would still have to teach from the beginning.

That day, she asked Xinyi to teach Long Qi and Rendong how to strengthen their bodies, and she went to Kuncheng Peak.

When Elder Donghui heard from the Taoist servant that Elder Fucang was coming, he didn't react for a while. This Lingxiang always did what he wanted, going in and out of his Langhuan Pavilion as if it was an empty place. When had he ever notified anyone?
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Lingxiang swaggering in with her sleeves swinging.

As expected, it would be strange if she asked someone to inform her before entering.

Elder Donghui just raised his head and took a quick look before returning to pondering the fragment in his hand.

Lingxiang didn't hesitate to speak up. She just sat there and started talking to herself.

"Ah! Fourth Senior Brother is still reading the "Xuantian Fragments". Tsk tsk tsk! After reading it over and over again, it's still incomplete. If the missing piece is not there, then it won't be the same no matter how much you try to comprehend it."

Elder Donghui said without even looking up, "If you want to read, then go ahead. Why do you want to make fun of me? You're wasting your precious time."

Lingxiang smiled when she heard this: "Who said I came here to read books? What book in your Langhuan Pavilion have I not read? I just came to inform you that I will bring my apprentice in to choose a spell in two days."
