Chapter 308 Heart knot
"The situation was urgent, and I really couldn't afford to let you out."
Ling Cang came out of the spirit beast bag and his body instantly grew larger.
Because I haven't walked for a long time, my steps are even a little unsteady.
But its first reaction was to turn around and face her with its butt.
Wei Wenxin explained, but it obviously did not mean to forgive.
"I'm going to go back to my den to rest for a while. If you have something to do, go by yourself."
After saying this in a harsh voice, Ling Cang slowly walked back along the stone road.
After more than a hundred years of operation, Lingsi Peak is now full of towering ancient trees. Even the fruit trees in the orchard have grown very tall. When it is time to pick the fruits, one needs to fly up on a sword to reach them.
It was a hot summer day. Cicadas were chirping heart-wrenchingly in the woods, and the wind was burning on my face.
Wei Wenxin sighed and wanted to say sorry, but he had been locked up in a small space while conscious for more than eighty years. No one had spoken to him and nothing new had happened. He could do nothing except practice. A simple sorry was really meaningless.
I want to take out some spirit stones and let it go to the market to buy things and have some fun, right?
It is now 100% richer than she is.
For Ling Cang, the most helpless thing is probably that it knows everything Wei Wenxin has experienced, but it can do nothing and can only accept it passively. Even if it wants to blame her, it can't do so with a clear conscience.
Because things have come to this point, it really wasn't Wei Wenxin's intention.
Another thing is that this period of time made it realize a problem.
The functions of the spirit beast bag are similar to those of the spirit medicine bag, spirit ore bag, storage bag, etc., but the spirit beast bag does not restrict the spirit beast from projecting its spiritual consciousness, and the spirit beast inside cannot get out by itself.
This kind of thing that cultivators are used to using just shows that humans occupy a dominant position on both ends of the spirit beast contract.
Human cultivators can rely on the abilities of spirit beasts to live a better life, but they will not be very close to the spirit beasts.
Sometimes, there are some things that you don’t want the spirit beast to know at all.
That’s why there are spirit beast bags in the world.
Generally speaking, spirit beasts do not feel that the spirit beast bag is a form of oppression and restraint.
Because it is full of spiritual energy and very quiet, it can follow its owner out without having to walk by itself.
After this incident, Ling Cang suddenly realized that the spirit beast bag was just a violent tool that restricted its freedom, just like a small dark room.
Whenever Wei Wenxin had something she didn't want it to know, she would lock it up...
This awakening of consciousness often has only one result.
The spirit beasts began to desire to live equally in this world like human cultivators.
However, Ling Cang has deep feelings for Wei Wenxin. The man and the beast have lived together for many years. It knows that Wei Wenxin does not look down on it and respects it very much in daily life.
That is why when this emotion arises, it feels difficult to face.
Separating temporarily and calming down is good for your mental health.
Wei Wenxin was not a considerate person who was good at considering things from other people's perspectives, but Ling Cang and she had signed a soul contract. Because of her higher cultivation and more powerful soul, even if she never peeped, she could still sense Ling Cang's thoughts.
So she didn't chase after him, but sighed and went to Lingyun Peak first.
Several errand disciples were weeding in the garden. When they saw her coming, they were stunned for a moment and then bowed to her.
Wei Wenxin waved her hand, telling them to do what they were supposed to do, and then went into the house.
Taoist Qingyuan is a person who attaches great importance to privacy. Like Lingyun Peak and Taxue Peak, there are restrictions everywhere. Except for Wei Wenxin, the favored eldest disciple, no one can come and go freely in his cave.
When Wei Wenxin entered the house, he saw a thin layer of dust. He guessed that his master had been away for at least half a month and had no intention of staying here for long.
The rules at Lingyun Peak are very strict. The menial disciples follow the established procedures every day, working and resting, and dare not inquire about the whereabouts of their master.
She casually performed a Jingchen Jue and helped her master tidy up the house. When Wei Wenxin went out, she did not ask the errand boy where her master was. She picked a spiritual fruit in the yard and ate it while flying down Lingyun Peak on her sword.
Taoist Master Mingying liked to guard the sect's treasury most of the time, basking in the sun in the backyard. When Wei Wenxin came, he went to pay his respects first, briefly explained his situation, and then came out to find the senior brother on duty and took the spirit stones that Zi Yu and the others had stored there.
Most high-level cultivators would build a treasury on their own peak to store things. There were not many who were accustomed to storing spirit stones in the sect's treasury like Wei Wenxin.
Many people store spirit stones in their sect's treasury just for temporary use when they go on a long journey. Wei Wenxin, a homebody, may not go on a long journey for decades, so there is no need for this.
The reason why she liked to do this was that she used to be afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would go on a shopping spree as soon as she had money. Spending money would become troublesome, and she might be able to save it. Later, it was purely because there were too many spirit stones, and those people on the top of the peak were afraid to hold them, so they could feel more at ease this way.
However, in just less than a hundred years, the small Lingsi Peak harvested more than 200 million spirit stones.
In the past, when there were no mining machines, even if you guarded the spiritual stone mine, you might not be able to dig out so much in a year. With this income, it must be said that the five members of the Zhen family and the two plant-type elves, Ziyu and Ganlu, are really good at making money.
Wei Wenxin took the spirit stones, checked the accounts, and asked them whether they had come to the treasury to withdraw resources for cultivation.
I learned that in recent years he had only taken a few elixirs for breaking through the Jindan stage and the foundation-building stage, as well as two relatively rare soul-returning pills that were specifically used to repair the soul, and nothing else.
Wei Wenxin sighed deeply, how could she have deserved such honor!
After coming out of the sect’s treasury, Wei Wenxin went straight to the Deacon’s Hall.
Before, she accepted the Enlightenment Tea mission. There were five sects, but she only went to three. The other two Enlightenment Tea trees were not her responsibility. Those two missions were equivalent to failures, and she had to pay a fine.
Another thing is that it’s time to clear up the sect missions accumulated over the years.
Wei Wenxin was in a hurry and had no time to waste.
The previous tasks were of very high levels, and if they were not completed, the fines would naturally be high.
After she walked out of the Deacon Hall, she held a few task jade slips in one hand and touched the half-empty storage ring with the other. She took several deep breaths before her emotions completely calmed down.
Afterwards, she sent a sound transmission note to Uncle Qingliu, asking her how many pens needed to be repaired. She learned that there were hundreds of them. He asked her to help prepare the materials while she ran to Wanjian City.
By the time she finished repairing the talisman pens, the storage ring was half empty again.
I came back from Wanjian City in a depressed mood. It was raining in Wanjian Mountains.
As soon as Wei Wenxin stepped onto the floating platform, raindrops as big as beans hit her face.
There is always such rain in the mountains in the early morning of summer, heavy and fast.
It was accompanied by a rumbling sound of thunder, which was very scary.
Immortal cultivators are not afraid of rain, but they always feel embarrassed when they are wet like this.
As a respectable person, Wei Wenxin was not in a hurry to do anything at the moment. He simply shook his sleeves, raised his right hand, and slowly walked down the spiral staircase.
As he took a step forward, an umbrella of light made of condensed spiritual power immediately appeared in his hand.
The light gold, translucent, and ordinary shape makes it look no different from the common oil-paper umbrellas, yet it is so eye-catching.
The most amazing thing is that when raindrops hit it, there is a "crackling" sound. Walking in the rain, the artistic conception is not affected at all.
Perhaps he felt that the umbrella was too plain, so when he took the second step, all kinds of patterns representing good luck and fortune immediately appeared on the umbrella, and the shape of the umbrella handle also became more refined.
It was morning exercise time, and the young disciples were practicing sword skills in the rain in the big square at the mountain gate.
The rain is merciless, and the gentleman is even more merciless. In this case, he is also threatened by thunder and lightning.
If some unlucky guy fails to keep up with the rhythm and breaks away from the sword formation, the metal sword in his hand will immediately draw a trace of lightning, which will not only make him tremble violently, but also make the people around him unable to stand steadily.
I really have so much pain that I can't express it.
"Cheer up! Be serious! The robbers won't stop robbing you just because it's raining! The enemies won't stop targeting you just because it's raining! Are all your bones broken? Momentum! What I need is momentum..."
The gentlemen walked in the rain, each circling the team they were responsible for, chanting the spell to tighten the hoop. As they were chanting, they saw everyone turning their heads to look, so they turned around too.
The young disciples did not recognize Wei Wenxin, and they exclaimed that she was so beautiful, their eyes all fell on the special umbrella. When the teachers who were responsible for teaching the young disciples saw her and recognized who she was, their first reaction was to salute respectfully:
"Greetings to Uncle Wei!"
Wei Wenxin stopped and nodded gently: "This kind of weather is rare, hurry up and practice more!"
I don’t know how such cold words can be spoken from a warm human mouth.
No one cared to envy her ability to easily form an umbrella with her hands. They continued to practice sword skills while wailing.
After the morning exercise was over, they gathered in groups of three or four to gossip about who Uncle Wei was.
Time is the cruelest thing. The senior sister who was always on everyone's lips has become a stranger to everyone.
Wei Wenxin walked along the path, listening to the sounds behind him. He felt a little melancholy in his heart and no longer had the heart to walk in the rain.
He stepped into the air and soon returned to Lingsi Peak.
The house was infested with insects, so she had to rebuild the Yongquan Cottage.
Other people's opinions have never been important to her. She always knows what she should do.
I don't know if you have watched "My Love from the Star"? Putting aside love, no matter how the world changes, there are people who are always there. That really tests one's character.
