Volume 3 Huashan Xiaoao Chapter 13 I, the Grandmaster, Treasure Hunt
In the original drama, Feng Qingyang was unable to comprehend the mysterious gate between heaven and man and was able to subdue the Six Immortals of Taogu when he was trapped in the eighth level of the acquired realm. Now that he has entered the half-step innate realm, it is even easier for him.
In just a few jumps, he caught up with the other five people and pressed their acupoints one by one.
He then dragged the six people in front of Linghu Chong and said, "This time I am only teaching you a lesson. If you dare to harass Linghu Chong again in the future, I will not be polite.
If the person who entrusted you with the task is dissatisfied, you can ask him to come to Huashan, and I will convince him."
"Yes Yes Yes."
"I dare not, never again."
"We will definitely convey your words to you."
“…”
The Six Immortals of Taogu hurriedly agreed.
They really didn't dare, because they found that Feng Qingyang's martial arts was obviously much stronger than a few days ago.
They were no match before, and they are even less of a match now.
They can't win but they always rush in front of others. Isn't that like looking for death? They are not really stupid.
"Thank you, Uncle Master Feng." Linghu Chong thanked Feng Qingyang first, and then said to the Six Immortals of Taogu, "Please also tell Junior Sister Yi Lin of Hengshan Sect that Linghu Chong has always treated her as a junior sister... If there is any offense in our dealings, I can only go to Hengshan to apologize another day."
After saying that, he nodded to Feng Qingyang, then turned and flew towards Mount Zhongnan.
As for how long Feng Qingyang would keep the Six Immortals of Taogu here, Linghu Chong didn't care.
Su Yan didn't care.
It's not that he hasn't thought about subduing the Six Immortals of Taogu to be the protectors of Huashan Sect, but now only Feng Qingyang can control these six people in Huashan Sect, so it is not appropriate to do this before the strength of Huashan Sect is further improved.
Mount Zhongnan is located in the middle section of the Qinling Mountains, south of Mount Hua, both in Shaanxi.
Therefore, Linghu Chong set out in the morning and arrived at the foot of Mount Zhongnan in the evening.
After resting for a night in the town at the foot of the mountain, Linghu Chong set out for the mountain early the next morning.
Su Yan said to him: "With your attire, people will know you are a martial artist. Maybe people won't let you in certain places. In addition, it will also attract the attention of other martial artists.
You should change into a scholar's attire, go to various Taoist temples in Zhongnan Mountain under the pretext of seeking the Tao, and then follow my instructions."
"It was my disciple's negligence."
Linghu Chong responded and went to the town's clothing store to change into a scholar's outfit, with a sword at his waist and a folding fan in his hand.
It has to be said that Linghu Chong is still quite handsome, otherwise it would be difficult for him to win the hearts of Yi Lin and Ren Yingying. Even Yue Lingshan liked him before she fell in love with Lin Pingzhi.
Therefore, after this transformation, he really looks like a handsome scholar.
Walking on the mountain path of Zhongnan, he attracted the attention of several young ladies, maids and other women who came up the mountain to sightsee, burn incense and add oil.
After going up the mountain and sharing Linghu Chong's visual and auditory tour, Su Yan realized that the Quanzhen Sect on Mount Zhongnan has now been divided into several Taoist temples and is in name only.
But this just made it convenient for him.
He asked Linghu Chong to come to Zhongnan Mountain for more than just to check out the current situation of Quanzhen Sect .
Firstly, Linghu Chong is the destined protagonist of this world. If Su Yan keeps him in Huashan, he is worried that the plot will develop in an unpredictable direction that is not beneficial to the Huashan Sect.
Secondly, Su Yan would never forget that the Tomb of the Living Dead in Zhongnan Mountain was one of the famous martial arts .
If they could find the Tomb of the Living Dead, even if they couldn't obtain the Nine Yin Scriptures and other martial arts, it would still be worth the trip as long as Linghu Chong could communicate with the people from the Ancient Tomb Sect.
As for how to find the Tomb of the Living Dead, Su Yan already had an idea.
At noon, while Linghu Chong was eating a Taoist health meal in Chongyang Palace that was more than twice as expensive as the one down the mountain, Su Yan used 100 simulation achievement points to exchange for a "primary resource scan".
As soon as he thought about it, he received a prompt message.
"Do you want to conduct a primary resource scan?"
Su Yan chose "yes".
Suddenly, a circular map appeared on the simulator interface.
This map is centered on Chongyang Palace where Linghu Chong is currently located, and covers an area of ten miles in radius. There are three colors of light spots on it: red, orange, and yellow.
Among them, red light spots are the most numerous, with more than a dozen; orange light spots are second, with only five; and yellow light spots are the least, with only two.
Su Yan noticed that the orange light spots were all in the non-building area, but the yellow light spots, one was somewhere in Chongyang Palace, and the other was a few miles away from Chongyang Palace.
"The fewer the light spots, the higher the value of martial arts training, right? Red, orange, and yellow are in line with the color upgrade rules. I just don't know if there are any that represent the Tomb of the Living Dead."
Thinking this in his mind, after Linghu Chong finished his lunch, Su Yan asked him to go and take a look at the five orange spots first.
Under Su Yan's instructions, Linghu Chong soon arrived at a secluded forest.
Linghu Chong walked around the area and couldn't help wondering, "Grandmaster, there's nothing here. What are we looking for?"
While Linghu Chong was looking, Su Yan was also looking. Not only could he share Linghu Chong's vision and hearing, he also had spiritual awareness that could extend up to three meters.
Hearing Linghu Chong's confusion, he smiled and said, "Silly boy, open your eyes and look at what that bunch of green leaves five steps away from your right hand is."
The forests of Mount Zhongnan were overgrown with bushes and knee-high weeds. Linghu Chong looked carefully at the place Su Yan mentioned, and his eyes lit up immediately. He said in surprise, "Is it the night vine?!"
Although Linghu Chong could identify some herbs, he was not a professional after all, so he was not very sure.
Su Yan said with certainty: "It is indeed a pair of night-blooming vines, and they are at least a hundred years old. They can be called natural treasures."
Polygonum multiflorum, later named Polygonum multiflorum by Li Shizhen in "Compendium of Materia Medica", can nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the muscles and bones, and benefit qi and blood.
Considering that this is a spiritual world, the nourishing effect of Polygonum multiflorum is definitely greater. Therefore, Su Yan concluded that this would be beneficial to the transformation of innate true qi by Feng Qingyang, who has grown Polygonum multiflorum for more than a hundred years.
After hearing Su Yan's words, Linghu Chong immediately started digging.
With Su Yan's guidance, he was not afraid of damaging the medicinal materials and quickly dug out the pair of Polygonum multiflorum.
"I'm afraid it's about four or five kilograms! It must be more than a hundred years old!" Linghu Chong said excitedly.
At the same time, he admired the Grandmaster even more, thinking: Grandmaster Uncle Feng once doubted whether the Grandmaster was a god. Although the Grandmaster did not admit it, his abilities must be almost as good as those of gods. Otherwise, why did he know that there was a pair of hundreds-year-old night-blooming vines in Chongyang Palace?
Su Yan had seen many of these medicinal herbs that could barely be called natural treasures, so he did not show any emotion and said directly: "Let's go to the next place."
"yes!"
Then, Su Yan directed Linghu Chong to walk around in the mountains and forests surrounding Chongyang Palace, and found precious medicinal materials with similar value to the hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum at the other four orange light spots.
They are a piece of excellent quality Polygonatum sibiricum, a nest of jade bees, a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and another pair of Polygonum multiflorum that are also hundreds of years old.
When faced with the nest of jade bees, Linghu Chong designed a plan to lead away the swarm of jade bees and only took the honey in the hive, intending to save it for later collection of honey, or find a beekeeper and take the nest of jade bees to Huashan to raise.
In the meantime, Su Yan also asked Linghu Chong to investigate the locations of several red light spots. Most of them were herbs that were of high value but obviously inferior to the orange light spots.
However, there is also a place that is almost an open-air micro hematite mine.
Linghu Chong naturally couldn't take the iron ore, but he picked all the other medicinal herbs.
When they finally reviewed their harvest, Linghu Chong couldn't help but say excitedly, "Grandmaster, the herbs we picked this time are probably worth tens of thousands of taels!"
Su Yan was not excited at all. He was thinking, since there was no Tomb of the Living Dead at any of the five orange light spots, then the most likely one was the yellow light spot a few miles away from Chongyang Palace.
He immediately said to Linghu Chong: "Hide these things first, and then go to another place to have a look. There may be more valuable treasures there."
