Chapter 99 accidentally selected
Decades ago, Lu Changan accepted Zhao Siyao's entrustment to go to Wufengfang City to restore the top-grade magic weapon, the Tie Luo Umbrella.
The craftsman who repaired the magic weapon was Master Gu Lai.
At that time, Gu Lai was a second-rank low-grade craftsman, but he was not promoted to Foundation Establishment.
"It turned out to be Master Gu. It's a pleasure to meet you. In Xialu Chang'an, I'm a casual cultivator and a second-level talisman master."
Lu Changan returned the salute.
Back then, when he went to Gu Lai, a craftsman, he disguised himself to cover up his original appearance.
This meeting, Gu Lai did not recognize him.
"Second-level talisman master? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lu also wants to compete for the position of the third peak?"
Gu Lai's eyes flickered.
"Come and try your luck."
Lu Changan felt weird. He never thought that Master Gu, who helped refine weapons back then, would become his competitor.
He seems to be unable to compete with the opponent.
On the surface, Lu Changan is inferior to Gu Lai in terms of cultivation, skills, and qualifications.
Gu Lai is a third-level foundation builder, a second-level middle-grade craftsman, and his actual age is older than Lu Changan. He has accumulated profound qualifications in Wufengfang City.
"No problem, fair play."
Gu Lai smiled calmly, obviously a bit confident.
One of the masters of Wu Qishan's previous treasure exploration was a craftsman.
"Seniors, what do you need? My concubine, Lan Lin, is Wu Qishan's housekeeper."
A graceful female cultivator greeted her, and bowed to salute.
"I'm here to find 'Shi Xianzi' and 'Lin Danshi' to lease the vacant third peak."
Gu Lai stroked his beard.
"me too."
Lu Changan smiled and remained calm.
"Master Lin Dan and Fairy Shi are both at Xiaodan Peak, I'll take you there."
The graceful female cultivator Lan Lin smiled and led the way.
The three of them flew to the highest main peak, and Lanlin held the token in her hand and broke through the formation.
Lu Changan noticed that the two main peaks have separate mountain protection formations.
…
Sister Lanlin took the two of them to a side hall of Xiaodan Peak.
There were three people sitting in the hall.
On the main seat, sat a red-faced old man, a simple and elegant nun.
The red-faced old man was a mid-stage foundation-builder, dressed in a toga, with a full sky, hale eyes, and an air of authority without anger.
The female cultivator is about twenty-seven or eight years old, with tall black hair, elegant and calm, not stunning, but elegant and refined, with a high charm and quietness.
Lu Changan guessed that the two were Lin Danshi and Shi Xianzi, the two masters of Wu Qishan.
"Manrong, married for one night and married for a hundred days, even if we have separated long ago, don't you miss a little bit of old love?"
At the bottom sat a middle-aged man wearing a beam crown and with puffy eyes.
"Chen Sheng! Your talisman art can reach the second-level low-level, and you want to bring your clansmen to settle in Wuqi Mountain? Among the colleagues who compete for the third peak, there are many people who have second-level middle-level skills. You can't let it go because of emotion and reason."
Shi Manrong's tone was light, elegant and calm.
At this time, Lu Changan and Gu Lai entered the hall.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you are here."
Shi Manrong stood up and saluted with an apologetic face.
This female formation mage has a simple and elegant figure, with slender legs, but her curves are full of charm, without losing the charm of a mature woman.
"Master Gu's name has long been heard. Well, who is this fellow Taoist?"
Red-faced old man Lin Danshi stroked his beard and smiled, looking at Lu Changan.
Shi Manrong's clear eyes also fell on this strange young man in white robe.
"In Xialu Chang'an, a second-level talisman master, a casual cultivator in Huanglong Immortal City."
Lu Changan clapped his hands.
"Lu Changan? Huanglong Immortal City?"
Lin Danshi looked thoughtful, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, could it be that rumored monk who built a rare foundation?"
As soon as these words came out, Shi Manrong, Gu Lai, and the middle-aged man all looked at Lu Changan in surprise.
"It's right here." Lu Changan said calmly.
"Disrespect, disrespect, Mr. Gu missed it before."
Gu Lai was surprised, showing a kind smile.
The rare foundation building in ancient times is considered a temporary anecdote for monks from all over the Liang Kingdom.
But it has nothing to do with self-interest. After the heat subsides, few people will pay attention.
As time goes by, the memory of all cultivators will gradually fade away.
If Master Lin Dan hadn't mentioned it, the few people present would never have connected such a young monk with the one who established the foundation.
"Two friends, please sit down."
Lin alchemist's name is Lin Ye, he is the owner of Xiaodan Peak, he has cultivated in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and he is a second-level top-grade alchemist.
The middle-aged man wearing a beam crown is the ex-husband of the formation master Shi Manrong.
"Chen Sheng, we still have to entertain guests, Wu Qishan doesn't welcome you!"
Lin Ye waved his hand impatiently and shooed this person away.
…
In the side hall, the two hosts and two guests exchanged pleasantries for a while, before getting to the point.
"We know the skills of fellow Daoist Gu. I don't know what rank of talisman master Daoist Lu is."
Shi Manrong is as light as a chrysanthemum, and his eyes are as clear as a spring.
Lu Changan realized that this dignified and quiet female formation mage might have friendship with Gu Lai.
Lu Changan said neither humble nor overbearing.
If he is showing second-level mid-level skills now, it does not match his previous progress, which is somewhat abnormal.
Besides, showing a second-level mid-level skill, most of them can't compete with Gu Lai.
Shi Manrong nodded, but did not let Lu Changan test it.
Lu Changan's level of skill is about the same as she expected.
Even if it is slightly exaggerated.
His cultivation, skills, and qualifications are still not as good as Gu Lai's refiner.
Shi Manrong and Lin Ye looked at each other and exchanged secretly for a while.
"Two fellow daoists, how about waiting a few days in Wuqi Mountain? We will discuss in the near future and select a fellow daoist to be the master of the third peak."
Alchemist Lin Ye said.
"good."
Lu Changan and Gu Lai have no objections.
The two were placed in the guest room of Xiaodan Peak.
Actually, Lu Changan did not place much hope, and it was out of politeness to wait for a few days.
…
Seven days later.
Five foundation-building monks with great skills gathered in the main hall of Xiaodan Peak.
Lu Changan and Gu Lai are two of them.
Lin Ye and Shi Manrong sat at the top.
"I have discussed with Fairy Shi for a long time, the third peak of Mount Wuqi, and I decided to let Fellow Daoist Lu share the rent."
Lin Ye announced the result in a calm tone.
Lu Changan was surprised, he didn't expect himself to be the final candidate.
Among these five people, his skills and qualifications are in the middle and lower reaches.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lu." Gu Lai and the other three congratulated.
Gu Lai and the others did not express any dissatisfaction, or asked the bottom line.
Lin Ye and Shi Manrong chose Lu Changan, there must be their considerations.
Everyone is in the foundation building stage and has second-level skills. The difference will not be too big. It is just the lease right of a spiritual vein dojo.
Lu Changan wondered in his heart: Compared with the other four, besides the best image, he has no other advantages.
Ancient rare foundation building may have a lot of reputation bonus.
But Lin Ye and Shi Manrong are casual cultivators, and they are more pursuing practical interests.
An ancient and rare foundation building means that the potential is low, and the achievements in the future will not be as good as those of the young and strong foundation building monks.
Lu Changan couldn't figure it out, and he didn't bother to think about it. I believe that after entering Wuqi Mountain, sooner or later, I will know the reason.
…
Gu Lai and several other Foundation Establishment monks left.
Lin Ye and Shi Manrong took Lu Changan to the vacant third main peak.
Looking down from the sky, Lu Changan can see that the third main peak is much lower than the other two.
The mountain peaks are not so steep, relatively flat and wide, and the actual land area enjoyed by the mountain is larger.
There is a cave left by the predecessor on the top of the mountain.
There is a large pool outside, covering an area of ten acres, which is more conspicuous. There are some rust spots in the pool, which may be the place for refining magic weapons.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, are you satisfied?" Alchemist Lin Ye asked.
"no problem."
Lu Changan has inspected around, the environment of Lingmai is stable, and the land is open, suitable for growing flowers, grass, and pets.
He no longer hesitated, signed a spiritual contract with two foundation-establishing monks, and paid a deposit of spiritual stones.
This kind of spiritual deed, signed and stamped, stamped with personal magic power, has no coercive force, and can be regarded as a credible certificate.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, after you settle in, I will invite the monks from Jinyun Valley to come over. At that time, the three of us will sign a new joint lease contract."
Lin Ye added.
Lu Changan nodded, he has contacts in Jinyun Valley, and he is not worried about the other party playing tricks.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the right to use this main peak will belong to you in the future, so why not give it a name."
Shi Manrong smiled gracefully and suggested.
Lu Changan learned about it.
Lin Ye's main peak is called Xiaodan Peak.
The main peak of Shi Manrong is called Xiaopan Peak.
"This main peak is relatively low and flat, so why not call it 'Little Turtle Peak'."
Lu Changan's eyes fell on the big pool, and he took a name in a flash.
"Little Turtle Peak?"
Lin Ye and Shi Manrong were stunned for a moment, and did not comment, which is considered a normal mountain name.
"Then congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lu, for becoming the owner of Little Turtle Peak."
The two congratulated each other.
…
The small turtle peak in front of you is only a rough.
The former craftsman passed away, and his descendants' relatives and friends removed all the valuable things inside, including the formations.
What was left to Lu Changan was just an empty mountain covered with greenery.
Lu Changan still needs to make some arrangements if he wants to officially settle in.
Fortunately, he was going back to Huanglong Fairy City.
Purchase the ultimate magic weapon, life-extending pill, collect treasure talisman materials, and cooperate with Zhou family of Yushou for the next time.
At that time, I will bring Guan Qiaozhi over along the way to help take care of this mountain cave.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you can find a concubine for Xiaoguifeng to arrange formations. The price is affordable, and I can provide you with a complete set of plans."
Shiman's elegant and graceful figure flew into the air, looked back and smiled, with a gentle and gentle voice.
