Chapter 142: Wood Monster Appears at the Ruins
The next day, Jiang Lan went downstairs and saw Mei Yin making breakfast as usual.
Thinking of what happened last night, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
But the best way to resolve the embarrassment is to talk about it.
Jiang Lan walked up and said hello.
"Mei Yin, good morning, I'll help too."
"Morning, Master Lan..."
Mei Yin looked calm and didn't seem to be affected by yesterday.
"I'm sorry about what happened yesterday."
Mei Yin kept her hands moving and began to explain what happened yesterday.
"I should be the one to apologize. Last night, I was lying in bed, thinking about how to repay 'Master Lan'."
"I tossed and turned, couldn't sleep, and thought of my family secret book, so I just sent it over."
"I didn't notice my clothes..."
Jiang Lan nodded to show that she understood.
[A favor must be repaid, and it's not delayed overnight. This woman is really good. ]
"By the way, I'll give it back to you!"
"Ah?"
"Don't worry, I've memorized it. Thank you for sharing. Without your consent, I won't pass on the inheritance inside."
Mei Yin looked at Jiang Lan, confirmed the sincerity in his eyes, and then took it and put it close to his body.
"Mei Yin, do you mind telling me about your family?"
"The inheritance inside is amazing. I haven't heard much about it, so I'm a little curious..."
Mei Yin nodded.
"My ancestor was a very famous 'talisman master' in the East China Sea..."
Jiang Lan listened to the story silently.
It turned out that a few hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Mei family, Mei Junshu, was also a well-known foundation-building cultivator in the East China Sea.
His attainments in talismans were also very high, reaching the second-level upper grade.
If he could go one step further and become a third-level talisman master, he could also be on par with the Jindan Zhenren to a certain extent.
Unfortunately, it is so difficult to form a pill. If you don't reach that level, it is very difficult to comprehend the third-level talisman and become a third-level talisman master.
In the end, you can only slowly walk towards the end of your life.
In his later years, he took the lead and pulled a few Taoist friends to develop the "Thunder Inducing Talisman" together, hoping to leave a legacy for the family.
However, just after his death, he was betrayed by his friends and disciples, who wanted to take the inheritance for themselves.
Because the core part of the inheritance is Mei Junshu's research.
The Mei family was wiped out, and only one branch escaped with a few books in the family.
That is, Mei Yin's branch.
"Presumably, they didn't get the inheritance, otherwise they wouldn't be unknown..."
"Well, Mei Zu, the most important notes were recorded in ordinary books and placed in the family library."
"So, they escaped."
"So, you should be hunted by those enemies? Are you still acting under your real name now?"
"It's okay, they died a long time ago..."
At the beginning, those thieves were just some people with ulterior motives.
As early as when Mei Junshu gathered everyone, he made it clear that this inheritance would be left to the family, and the rest of the rewards would be prepared for others.
His friends also nodded in agreement.
The inheritance that was finally researched was very powerful, which caused some people to be greedy.
But not everyone was like this.
When they learned that the thieves had done such a horrific thing, several close friends of Mei Junshu took the initiative to stand up and hunt them down.
In the end, the thieves either died or disappeared.
Mei Yin's family also crossed mountains and rivers and fled to the land of the three sects to start their lives again.
[In the end, after the "Thunderbolt Talisman" was developed, it never became famous, and it was passed to me...]
[It's really unpredictable. ]
Jiang Lan, as an unrelated person, was able to obtain this precious inheritance that caused bloodshed.
In addition to "fate", it was also related to his "behavior".
If he had never joined the Xiaoyao Sect, if he had never founded the "Shanfeng Society", if he had never "preached".
Perhaps nothing would have happened.
After all, Mei Yin has been in Xiaoyao Sect longer than Jiang Lan, and has not revealed her inheritance in these years...
"By the way, I forgot to ask you yesterday, how did you gain enlightenment?"
Speaking of this, Mei Yin's mouth corners unconsciously curled up, and she couldn't hide her smile.
"I tried to draw a 'first-level top-grade talisman' last night, and succeeded!"
"Congratulations on becoming a first-level top-grade talisman master, your future is limitless!"
"Yeah, all this is thanks to 'Master Lan'!"
"It's because you have a high level of enlightenment..."
Time flies, and breakfast is ready.
Fan Zhuqing and the others who just returned to the restaurant looked at the table in front of them, which looked like a full banquet, and looked at Jiang Lan and the others strangely.
"Is it a good day today?"
"So many delicious foods? I feel like I can eat until noon..."
Yu Ding looked excited.
"Well... Mei Yin successfully attained enlightenment yesterday, but I didn't have time to celebrate, so I'll make up for it today!"
Yu Ding applauded Mei Yin and celebrated: "Great! I want to share in your happiness, and I hope I can attain enlightenment in the future!"
"There will be a chance!"
After a delicious meal, everyone became closer.
After the meal, Jiang Lan asked the three to deliver the supplies to the Foreign Affairs Hall, and asked the "ship runners" there to deliver them to the stores in the market.
Xu Xin was running the business there with the staff of the "Shanfeng Club".
At noon, Jiang Lan made cakes and placed them at the door for the people sent by the master to take away.
However, this time, the visitor turned out to be 'Jiang Ling'er who had not been seen for a long time.
"Junior brother, long time no see, you haven't visited Master for a long time, she has started to miss you!"
"I think she is missing my cooking skills..."
Jiang Lan took out more cakes to entertain her.
Jiang Ling'er took it naturally and replied to the previous words.
"Hehe, you found this!"
"But this time, I came to tell you that you don't need to prepare Master's cakes from tomorrow."
"Oh? Are you going on a mission?"
Jiang Lan had a hunch that it should be related to the market or the ruins.
"Well... this is what happened."
Jiang Ling'er swallowed the cake in her mouth and began to tell the story.
With the exploration and development, the progress of the ruins is encouraging.
Someone found the medicine garden of 'Qianye Sect', but they didn't expect that there was a wood demon guarding it, and there were heavy casualties.
"Wood demon?"
"Well, this time we asked our master to go over there just to tame the wood demon!"
"You also know how rare wood demons are, right? The wood demons that appear in the medicine garden are likely to be precious medicinal materials."
"If we can tame them, it will be the heritage of a sect."
When the spiritual plant becomes a wood demon, it has consciousness and can practice.
The improvement of cultivation can also strengthen the medicinal properties in the body.
It can also condense the excess medicinal properties in the body for others to use.
If it can be tamed, you can get a spiritual beast that can continuously produce spiritual medicine and will continue to become stronger!
That's right, the wood demon can have multiple roles.
It has a long lifespan, produces spiritual medicine, and can also guard the sect.
Of course, the specific value fluctuates greatly, and everything depends on the wood demon itself.
