A Not-So-Shallow Relationship

Golden Cloud Valley The first batch of monks who went out to fight included Zhang Tieshan and Lin Lu.

There is no explicit statement in the letter, but Lan Chang'an can see hints from the detailed description of Zhang Tieshan.

As for Zhao Siyao, it may be among the subsequent batches of monks who will go on the expedition.

As expected.

A few days later, Lin Lu came to visit with a gift and brought more detailed information.

"Xiao Lu, you are so outspoken that you don't need to bring such a heavy gift."

In the cave, Lan Chang'an received Lin Lu's filial gifts, including second-level spiritual wine, tea, animal food, etc.

"Don't do this next time. If you are serious, come to Small Turtle Peak to sit around and bring some souvenirs."

His expression was slightly reproachful, and his words were not polite.

Lan Chang'an During the war, Spirit Stone earned a lot of money and became very wealthy.

Lin Lu is not that generous. For example, the filial gift this time was larger than usual, which was a big expense for him.

This does not include Lin Lu's promotion to Foundation Establishment and his contribution from visits in previous years.

"Uncle Lu, my nephew is sincerely grateful this time, which is unusual. Because of your guidance and the Jade Clarity Pill, my nephew was successfully promoted to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage..."

Lin Lu The tone is respectful and the reason is explained.

Since Yellow Dragon Immortal City, Lin Lu has been in contact with Lan Chang'an.

Over the decades, he noticed that Uncle Lu was extraordinary, especially his unchanging mentality and perseverance, and his steady progress step by step, which was admirable.

As the saying goes, it is easier to know than to do. Everyone understands the principle of spiritual practice. However, there are very few monks who can last for decades or a hundred years.

Chatted for a while.

The two soon talked about the sect's war, which was also related to Lin Lu's purpose of coming here.

"My nephew took the initiative to apply and is on the list of the first batch to go out."

Lin Lu said calmly.

Lan Chang'an did not expect that Lin Lu took the initiative to request the expedition. He did not agree with this, but did not stop it.

"The battle for the Feng Kingdom is certainly an opportunity. However, the journey is long and the battle situation is unpredictable, especially the monks who are leading the battle. Nephew Lin must be careful and take care of himself."

He sighed softly and warned.

In the past two lives, Lan Chang'an had witnessed the war and chaos in the Cultivation World sect.

Especially in Second Life, his cultivator Lineage was forced to be involved, and many clan members were injured or killed as a result.

"My nephew understands the truth of this. However, this is already the best choice now..."

Lin Lu smiled bitterly.

Although he had the idea of conquering and fighting for the road to immortality, the situation for the first batch of monks who took the lead was uncertain and the risks were relatively high.

Later, Lan Chang'an learned that Golden Cloud Valley selected the first batch of monks to fight, giving priority to young and strong ones with low potential.

Young monks with potential, or those with outstanding skills, will be given some care.

As for the old ones, they have devoted their lives to the sect and lack drive and bloodiness, and are second only to the young and strong ones with low potential.

If you take the initiative to apply, the sect will receive additional rewards, which can leave a good impression in the eyes of the senior officials.

Of course, monks with an elder background can use various methods to avoid going to the front line to fight.

For example, being transferred to a certain place to guard it for ten years to avoid the whirlpool of war.

Even if you go to the front line and be responsible for logistics, supervising operations, etc., the risk is much smaller.

"... Even if my nephew doesn't take the initiative to apply, there is a high probability that he will be selected in the first batch."

After hearing the end, Lan Chang'an cannot deny that Lin Lu's decision is the best choice out of desperation.

As a young monk, he has no potential, no background, and no outstanding skills.

Rather than passively being dispatched, it is better to take the initiative.

"When I came here this time, my nephew sold off a lot of items, and with the help of my descendants, I saved a sum of money Spirit Stone. After being instructed by Uncle Zhang, I went to Uncle Lu to buy materials for protecting the road."

Lin Lu said.

Nowadays, the price of war preparation materials has skyrocketed, and it is difficult to buy high-quality Talisman at a reasonable price.

Lan Chang'an asked Lin Lu about Spirit Stone's budget.

After discussion, Lan Chang'an sold Lin Lu, eight mid-to-high-quality Talisman, and a repaired Second-Order Middle-Grade Javelin Puppet.

The price is lower than the current market price.

"Xiao Lu, if you go to the battlefield, you must not only be wary of the enemy's monks, but also your own fellow disciples."

Before leaving, Lan Chang'an gave instructions.

"This Escape Talisman is the heartfelt gift of Uncle Lu. Please accept it."

Lan Chang'an took out a piece of Escape Talisman belonging to Second-Order Top-Grade and handed it to Lin Lu.

He also didn't want to honor his juniors for many years and never return.

"Uncle Lu, please take care, my nephew, I wish you a fairy road Changqing, and board the Golden Core Realm avenue."

Lin Lu took Talisman, the corners of his eyes were slightly red, he bowed his hands and flew away through the air.

Looking at his back, Lan Chang'an recalled Young Marquis Lin Yi back then.

Lin Yi died young in middle age.

Lin Lu's life expectancy is just over halfway, and I don't know if I can get through this and seize opportunities in Cultivation War.

A few days later.

Lan Chang'an takes the initiative to visit Fairy Shi of Small Plate Peak.

He is preparing to strengthen Small Turtle Peak's formation.

Decades ago, the Second-Order Middle-Grade Mountain Protection Array arranged by Shi Manrong for Small Turtle Peak was a bit useless to him.

Lan Chang'an is preparing to deploy a set of small Mountain Protection Array of Quasi-Third-Order to improve safety protection.

His personal formation attainments are only at the second-level ordinary level, which is still the foundation for Previous Life to dabble in.

Lan Chang'an In this life, I have also studied Talisman, Puppet, alchemy, body refining and other fields, and I no longer have more energy to dabble in other skills.

Furthermore, the formation is obscure and profound, and his talent can only be said to be average.

"Daoist Lu took the initiative to come to visit. It is a rare sight in ten years. I am very flattered and must be well entertained."

Shi Manrong smiled sweetly and elegantly, and invited Lan Chang'an into the cave.

An elegant tea room.

Shi Manrong rolled up her skirt sleeves, revealing a lotus-like arm, came to Lan Chang'an's side, leaned over slightly, and made tea herself.

From this angle, Shi Manrong is wearing a moonlight dress, and the plump curves of her tall body are abruptly outlined, like a dignified and quiet relief.

Lan Chang'an smiled and enjoyed this scene.

The beauty of Shi Manrong can only be described as Higher Vehicle, which is not as good as Zhao Siyao and Mu Bingyun.

But in this woman, the plum fragrance that has been honed through hardships, the dignity and maturity that is as light as a chrysanthemum, are more attractive to experienced men.

After noticing Lan Chang'an's gaze, Fairy Shi's eyes were as light as clear water, with slightly rippling eyes, pursed lips and a smile, and looked at him calmly.

Even counting from the time when Shi Manrong lost his memory, the two have had decades of friendship, consistent ideas, and a good understanding of each other.

As neighbors, the two people have a good impression of each other. In recent years, their relationship has gradually become closer, and they have an ambiguous feeling of being far away from each other.

Different from before the amnesia, Shi Manrong is now dignified and reserved, less active and charming than before.

"Daoist Lu, please taste this pot of tea brewed by Manrong. Is it to your liking?"

Shi Manrong's voice was gentle and gentle. He leaned closer and handed the brewed tea to Lan Chang'an.

The aroma of orchid lingers on the tip of the nose.

Lan Chang'an looked at Fairy Shi, who was only a few feet away, and naturally heard the hidden meaning.

"We have known each other for so many years. It is not the first time for Lu to drink Fairy Shi's tea and wine. Naturally, he likes it."

He smiled gently and replied.

When they took the tea cup, their hands touched together. Shi Manrong seemed nervous, and his green fingers shook slightly, splashing a little water.

"I'll wipe it for you."

Fairy Shi smiled apologetically, held Lan Chang'an's wrist, ran Law Power, and wiped away the water stains on it.

After such an intimate gesture, the two held hands together and understood each other tacitly.

Fairy Shi was holding the teapot, still leaning forward slightly, and Lan Chang'an pulled her to sit beside him.

"Daoist Lu."

Fairy Shi seemed to be embarrassed, put her slender legs together, snuggled into his arms, and said softly.

"What's wrong?"

Lan Chang'an hugged her weak and boneless waist. The familiar feeling from that time came over, but it had a different charm.

"I still haven't remembered my relationship with Daoist Lu before I lost my memory."

Shi Manrong Youyou Road.

Lan Chang'an looked at her as if she was lying.

I got to know Fairy Shi again. There is indeed a difference in personality. He is not as active and enchanting as before.

The progression of emotion, subtlety and reserve, is like a bottle of fine wine that has been treasured for many years and needs to be savored slowly.

Because Lan Chang'an was not very proactive, and it took so many years for him to break the layer of insular window paper.

"However, I have an intuition. Since we are so compatible and have the same temperament, our relationship must have been quite deep back then."

Shi Manrong looked at him with a smile.

"Our relationship is indeed not shallow."

With today's friendship and relationship, Lan Chang'an no longer has to hide it.

"In the past, I was very curious about our past relationship. But today, I don't want to know so clearly."

Shi Manrong did not let Lan Chang'an elaborate.

In the tea room, two people, a man and a woman, hugged each other quietly.

Lan Chang'an felt the plump and convex curves of the beauty, and her head that looked like resentment came closer a little bit.

Fairy Shi's lips are plump and sweet, as fresh as cherries.

After a long time.

Fairy Shi seemed to have recovered from drowning. He took a long breath, his face was as bright as the morning glow, and his eyes were as tender as water.

"Fairy Shi, the days are long, please stop in moderation."

Lan Chang'an smiled slightly, loosened her hair, and half-undressed her skirt, revealing a pair of icy legs Fairy Shi.

"You..."

Shi Manrong's pretty eyes were wide open, and there was a hint of anger on his face. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

However, this was also in line with her original intention. After breaking through the window paper, she didn't want to develop so fast and be looked down upon by someone.

After a while, Shi Manrong straightened her dress and returned to her quiet and dignified demeanor, looking thoughtful.

"Fairy Shi, let's talk about business."

Lan Chang'an It's so easy to take time off.

The closeness just now was just a small break in the long and boring life of cultivating immortals.

Immortal cultivators who have practiced hard for decades or hundreds of years are prone to Heart Barrier if they do not relax properly.

Most of the Evil Cultivator who have a cold or paranoid personality are mostly dao companion who have no equivalent.

"Quasi-Third-Order's formation is quite expensive. Daoist Lu are you sure you want to deploy it?"

Shi Manrong sat in a dignified posture and confirmed.

"It doesn't hurt to be a little more expensive."

Lan Chang'an is now wealthy and safety comes first.

"Based on our friendship, I believe Fairy Shi will give you a fair price."

Of course, the price can be reduced if possible.

Even the small Quasi-Third-Order Mountain Protection Array is quite expensive.

Just get a discount, the price difference is thousands Spirit Stone.

Shi Manrong flipped up her hair and rolled her eyes lightly, showing her unique charm.

Then, based on Lan Chang'an's needs, she initially determined a Quasi-Third-Order formation plan.

In the end, I was generously given a 30% discount, but I didn't make much profit.
