Chapter 4 Finding a teacher (1/2)

As the only remaining member of the Gu family's Xuan generation and the eldest member of the Gu family, Gu Xuanzhan has probably seen countless relatives die at the hands of monsters in his life. Natural hatred for monsters and beasts.

He took a breath and added, "Monster beasts are also an opportunity for immortal cultivators like us. The inner elixir of demon beasts can be used to refine elixirs or weapons. Their flesh and blood can be eaten, and their sinews and bones are excellent materials for weapon refinement. Some The inner elixir of strange monsters can even be used to assist cultivation. However, monsters are not different from ordinary beasts. Monsters have some intelligence. The higher the level of cultivation, the higher the intelligence and difficulty in hunting. When a monster reaches the fifth level, it can transform into a human form, and its spiritual intelligence is as good as that of humans."

Gu Changhuan listened intently and thought: If this happens, wouldn't it be even more difficult for the human race to deal with the monsters?

"However, the demon race is not like our human race cultivators. In addition to their own cultivation abilities, immortal cultivators are also good at using foreign objects. Magic weapons, talismans, formations, etc. can help immortal cultivators gain advantages in the fight against monsters."

Time passed by unknowingly, and when the sun was at its peak, Gu Xuanzhan stopped explaining.

"Come again tomorrow!"

Gu Changhuan left the Sutra Pavilion after bowing. It was really nice to have only one morning class! Even excluding an hour of practice time, she still has a lot of free time to do what she wants to do.

Gu Changhuan touched her belly. She was too full from yesterday's lunch. She has not yet digested the spiritual energy contained in the food. She is not hungry at all now.

Since he didn't go to the dining hall, Gu Changhuan went straight back to the courtyard. She dove into Gu Wanhao's study, took out a book from the bookshelf, and read through it. As for the jade slips on the bookshelf, I won't look at them until her cultivation is a little higher.

After reading a miscellany, Gu Changhuan noticed that it was getting late. She returned to her quiet room, opened the formation in the courtyard, gathered her concentration and started practicing.

Time passed so quickly as Gu Changhuan studied and practiced, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, someone suddenly came to visit in the courtyard.

"Seventh sister! It's me!" Gu Changhuan was sitting under a tree reading a book when she suddenly heard someone calling her.

Gu Changhuan's consciousness swept away and he realized that it was Gu Changze who was here. He was standing outside the formation and yelling. He did not have the dignity and poise of an immortal cultivator at all.

Gu Changhuan opened the formation and invited Gu Changze in. Gu Changze walked into the courtyard with a smile and sat opposite Gu Changhuan.

"Congratulations to Sixth Brother for making a further step in your cultivation." Gu Changhuan took out a pot of spiritual tea from his storage bag and poured half a cup for Gu Changze and himself.

"This is my little sister's homemade spiritual tea. It's best drunk cold."

Gu Changze has now reached the fourth level of Qi training. Although Gu Changze has three spiritual roots, his main spiritual root is six inches long, so his qualifications are still good. Moreover, Gu Changze also worked very hard in training, so it was reasonable to break through to the fourth level of Qi training within half a year.

"Sure enough, Qimei has something good here. The spiritual energy in this tea is no less than the Qi Nourishing Pill!" Gu Changze praised after taking a sip.

Gu Chang laughed and said, "Brother Six, thank you. Why did Brother Six come here today? You can't just come here to drink tea, right?"

"Seventh sister, you know, next month is the spirit testing conference! According to the clan rules, we can ask the clan general affairs hall for permission to go home to visit relatives during the spirit testing conference." Gu Changze said, his parents are both mortals, and every three He would go home to visit his parents every year at the spirit testing conference.

"Seventh Sister also has relatives in the mortal world, right? I came here just to ask Seventh Sister if she would like to go to the General Affairs Hall with me, so that I can go home to visit my relatives."

Gu Changhuan thought for a while and asked, "But let us go home by ourselves? Or go with the person hosting the spirit detection conference?"

"Of course we go together with the people who are hosting the spirit detection conference. After all, my Gu family is close to the demon clan and we have to be on guard. The people who are hosting the spirit detection conference are at the lowest stage of Qi training. Our safety can be guaranteed if we go with them." Gu Changze explain.

"In that case, should we go to the General Affairs Hall now? By the way, I don't know which village or town my sixth brother is from, and my younger sister is from Yuqing Town." Gu Changhuan said.

If we weren’t in the same village or town, it wouldn’t be easy to travel together!

Gu Changze said with a hint of surprise, "Although I am not from Yuqing Town, the village where my hometown is located is also under the jurisdiction of Yuqing Town."

"Then let's go to the General Affairs Hall now!"

After Gu Changhuan finished speaking, the two of them left the courtyard together and went to the General Affairs Hall. In the past six months, Gu Changhuan has learned all about the road to Bifeng Mountain and has met many clan members. Although the Gu family is only a small family in the foundation period, the family is very united.

The person in charge of the Gu family's general affairs hall is Gu Wanhua. She traveled a few years ago and just came back a few months ago and took over the position of elder of the general affairs hall. Of course, she will also host the matters related to this spirit testing conference. She was not surprised to see Gu Changze and Gu Changhuan, because they were not the first people to come to Gu Wanhua to ask for leave.

"It's Changze and Changhuan! Are you here to apply for family visits?"

Before the two of them could speak, Gu Wanhua asked with a smile.

"Meet the elder."

"Meet the elder."

After the two of them bowed to Gu Wanhua in a polite manner, Gu Changze spoke first, "Elder is wise! Chang Huan and I are both from Yuqing Town. I hope the elder will allow us to go home to visit relatives."

"The person who is going to Yuqing Town to hold the Spirit Testing Conference is your uncle from the Shiyuan Clan. He will lead the team from Bifeng Mountain on the seventh day of next month. Just remember to find him in advance." After Gu Wanhua finished speaking, he took out the Two talismans

"This is a second-level low-grade defensive talisman. One for each person, used for self-defense."

Gu Changze was shocked by Gu Wanhua's generosity. You know, if this second-level low-grade defensive talisman is taken to the market, it can be sold for at least 500 low-grade spiritual stones!

"Auntie, this is a defensive talisman worth 500 low-grade spiritual stones!" Gu Changze did not reach out to take it, but said with a trembling voice.

Seeing Gu Changze's reaction, Gu Changhuan also understood that this talisman was probably extremely precious, at least it was not something that ordinary Qi training cultivators could get at will. She secretly smacked her lips: The elders of the foundation-building stage of the Gu family are really generous! Since she went up the mountain, she has received several treasures.

Gu Wanhua stuffed the talisman into the hands of the two and said proudly, "I drew this talisman myself, and..."

Gu Wanhua's expression changed, and he slapped Gu Changze on the head

"Why call me aunt? Am I that old?"

Gu Changhuan couldn't help but burst out laughing. It seems that no matter whether it is a cultivator or a mortal, any woman hopes to be young and beautiful forever! This is true. Although Gu Changhuan doesn't care much about her appearance, she doesn't want to have chicken skin and gray hair one day, which is too scary.

"You are indeed the aunt of Changhuan and me! But you are the most beautiful aunt in our Gu family! Even Yu Daoyan, the head of the Yu family, is inferior to you!" Gu Changze knew that he had said something wrong, but he rolled his eyes and opened his mouth to coax Gu Wanhua into a happy mood.

"Seventh sister, do you think what Sixth Brother said is right?" Gu Changze found Gu Changhuan laughing secretly, and naturally couldn't let him go easily.

"I haven't seen that senior from the Yu family, but the aunt is stunningly beautiful. Even though Changhuan is a woman, she thinks she is extremely beautiful." Gu Changhuan answered flawlessly. She didn't lie. Gu Wanhua had skin as white as cream, red lips and white teeth, a delicate nose, and beautiful eyes that were shining. She was indeed extremely beautiful.

Gu Wanhua smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, you two juniors, remember not to make up the head of the Yu family like this in front of outsiders. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, aunt, we understand." Gu Changze said so, and Gu Changhuan also agreed.

They all understood that outsiders were not as easy to talk to as their own family members. In the world of immortal cultivation, fists are everything. Whoever has a higher cultivation level has the final say. If the head of the Yu family knew what Gu Changze did today, and if the head of the Yu family intended to make things difficult for him, then Gu Changze and Gu Changhuan would probably suffer a little.

"You must be extra careful when you go down the mountain to visit relatives this time. In recent months, there have been several incidents of monsters injuring people in my Gu family's territory. Although these monsters have been killed, if there are new monsters, you must not fight them if you encounter them! It is important to escape! Especially Chang Huan! You are only at the second level of Qi training and have never fought with anyone, so you must not be reckless!" Gu Wanhua's face was stern.

Gu Wanhao took good care of her. She was able to build a foundation with Gu Wanhao's contribution. Naturally, she was willing to take care of Gu Wanhao's granddaughter. As for the young man Gu Changze, he has good spiritual roots and a sweet mouth, so she likes him a little.

Gu Changhuan knew that this was a big deal. She said seriously, "Please rest assured, Changhuan cherishes his life very much."

Gu Changze also said, "Don't worry, if I encounter a monster, I will definitely escape! Then I will take the brothers and uncles in the clan to beat it up!"

Seeing that the two people were sensible and knew the importance of things, Gu Wanhua didn't nag too much.

Gu Changhuan returned to the courtyard, happily rummaging through boxes and cabinets to bring some gifts to her parents. Gu Changhuan knew that her parents didn't need anything, and the gifts were just her thoughts.

It was the seventh day of the first lunar month in a blink of an eye, and Gu Changhuan arrived at the mountain gate early to wait.

About half a quarter of an hour later, Gu Changze also arrived.

"I used to be the first to come, it seems that the seventh sister also misses her family."

"Didn't the sixth brother come very early?"

"After all, before the age of twenty, we could only go home to visit our relatives during the Spirit Test Conference!" Gu Changze sighed.

After the age of twenty, the children of the Gu family will go down the mountain to work for the Gu family, and then they will have more freedom.

Not long after the two chatted, Gu Shiyuan arrived with his people.

"Greetings, uncle."

"Greetings, uncle."

The two saluted Gu Shiyuan.

Gu Shiyuan rubbed his sleeves for a while, "No need to be polite, I hate these complicated etiquettes of the family the most, it's not the ordinary officialdom." Why so many tricks!

Gu Changhuan and Gu Changze were both stunned, but the two clan members behind Gu Shiyuan did not change their expressions. They probably knew Gu Shiyuan's temperament.

This clan uncle's style of doing things is really different, but what he said is not without reason. Gu Changhuan thought to himself.

Gu Changze's eyes lit up. To be honest, he also hated secular etiquette. Now that he saw this clan uncle, he felt that he was of the same mind.

"It seems that there are only a few of us."

Gu Shiyuan took out a spirit boat. The small and exquisite spirit boat grew larger in the wind, and finally the size was fixed at ten feet.

"Let's all get on my Crane Feather Boat! This way we can reach Yuqing Town faster."

The five of them boarded the flying boat. Gu Changhuan had never seen such a flying magic weapon before. Before he could exclaim, he heard Gu Changze say, "This Crane Feather Boat must be a first-class magic weapon! Uncle Shiyuan is really generous! This is the first time I have seen such a treasure. It's all thanks to Uncle Shiyuan!"

Gu Changhuan smiled secretly. His sixth brother was really a smooth talker.

Although Gu Shiyuan didn't like complicated etiquette, how many people in this world could refuse others' compliments and flattery?

He stroked his beard, obviously enjoying Gu Changze's compliments.

"I also got this Crane Feather Boat recently, and it cost me 4,000 spirit stones! But the speed of this boat is only slightly slower than that of the foundation-building cultivator, but it is worth the price!"

Gu Changze played to his strengths, complimenting Gu Shiyuan while talking to the two clansmen brought by Gu Shiyuan, and even occasionally pulling Gu Changhuan to talk a few words, and the atmosphere in the spaceship immediately became warm. Although Gu Shiyuan is an elder, he has a wild and casual personality, and he can talk to several juniors.

During the conversation, Gu Changhuan learned that Gu Shiyuan and the two brothers brought by Gu Shiyuan were stationed in a family industry before, and they were recently transferred back to Bifeng Mountain because of the shortage of manpower in the Spirit Testing Conference.

The two brothers are the second and third in the Chang generation, the second brother Gu Changfeng, and the third brother Gu Changyong, both of whom are cultivators of the sixth level of Qi training.

In less than an hour, the Crane Feather Boat stopped at the square of Yuqing Town. The venue for the Spirit Testing Conference had already been arranged, waiting for the conference to be held. Yuqing Town was also overcrowded, and people who brought their children to test their spiritual roots filled the inns of Yuqing Town.

The cultivator stationed in Yuqing Town was Gu Shichang, who was already a hundred years old. He was stationed in Yuqing Town half for garrison and half for retirement.

After getting off the Crane Feather Boat, Gu Changhuan said goodbye to Gu Shiyuan, "Uncle, Changhuan misses his relatives very much. I will visit Uncle Shichang tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter, you go! Changze boy, you go too! Just remember to come back before the end of the Spirit Testing Conference." Gu Shiyuan laughed.

Gu Changhuan used the light body technique taught by Gu Xuanzhan, and suddenly he was as light as a swallow, and he could take a few meters in one step, and ran to his hometown at a fast speed.

Without disturbing the servants, Gu Changhuan came to the door of the study silently. She just used her spiritual sense to scan and found that her father and mother were in the study.

She stood at the door of the study, and was a little afraid to knock on the door.

"Who is outside the door!" Gu Changhuan's breath was exposed for a moment, and was noticed by Fang Yurong in the room.

Gu Changhuan adjusted his sleeves and pushed open the door

"Father and mother, Huan'er is back!"

Gu Shan's hand holding the brush trembled, and Fang Yurong's eyes immediately reddened.

Not to mention how lively Gu Shan's family reunion was, Gu Shichang's house on the other side was also very lively.

Gu Shichang had already prepared fine wine and delicacies as well as mortal singing and dancing. At this time, several beautiful mortal women were dancing in Gu Shichang's mansion. Gu Shichang and Gu Shiyuan sat down on the left and right respectively. Gu Changfeng and Gu Changyong stared at the dancers intently, feeling a bit happy and reluctant to leave.

"Brother Shiyuan, what do you think of the dancers in my house?" Gu Shichang burped and asked.

"I know nothing about music and dance, why do you test me with this, Brother Nineteen?" Gu Shiyuan said bluntly, his face flushed, obviously he had drunk a lot of wine.

"If you ask me, how many of us cultivators can achieve immortality after meditating and practicing every day? It's better to be like me, enjoying life in time and living happily!"

Gu Changfeng frowned after hearing this and drank the wine in his hand.

Gu Changyong seemed to be thinking about something.
