The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 180 Figure it out
Being controlled by Li Chenyu, Lin Bai dared not speak out.

Being controlled by Gu Qingshui, Lin Bai could only show his loyalty.

Lin Bai felt very pleased to be controlled by his good disciple.

Lin Bai didn't look like a virtuous teacher at all. He held Miaomiao's hand with his left hand and staggered around, while with his right hand... he glanced at Jiang Yu. The little girl had grown up.

She was still a little kid when I first met her, but now she has grown into a graceful young girl.

She is taller than her sister, but not as plump as her sister. She is not as well-behaved as her sister, but she is crystal clear, and she does not have as many intentions to harm others as her sister.

She stood straight and talked calmly. She also had a decent temperament. She was not like Tian Wanjun, a lady from a wealthy family. Instead, she had the demeanor of a modest gentleman.

In short, she is a hundred times more sensible than her sister.

Seeing that her cultivation had not improved much, Lin Bai chatted with her casually.

After talking for a while, we arrived at Yu Lake.

Leaving the two little girls behind, he climbed up the black tower and saw two older girls.

After not seeing each other for two months, Pei Ning and Jiang Xiaobai haven't changed much. Both of them have smiles on their faces, and no one knows what they talked about before.

Lin Bai knew both of them very well, so there was no need for him to put on any pretense and he just sat down and chatted.

After expressing their feelings of separation, they began to talk about the previous war.

Among the various sects and families in Qiaoshan, the Tian family suffered the most casualties, with the death of over two hundred Qi-cultivating disciples and one foundation-building disciple, while other families did not suffer much damage.

"What happened when you and Zhu Jianyang left that night? I heard that several Jindan died." Jiang Xiaobai was quite interested.

Since they are not outsiders, Lin Bai will not hide anything. He also hopes that the two of them can gain more experience so that they will not be at a loss when they encounter Jindan in the future.

"Then how did you escape?" Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.

"Xiao Huang gave me a secret treasure." Lin Bai said honestly.

"You gave it to me but not me?" Jiang Xiaobai crossed her arms and sneered, "You must be hiding something from me!" She looked at Lin Bai and asked, "She has become the apprentice of Fairy Chen Yu? Is that true or not?"

"Since you've guessed it, don't talk nonsense." Lin Bai smiled.

"Sister Ning, you have to be more careful." Jiang Xiaobai immediately pulled Pei Ning and said seriously, "He is always good at talking and coaxing people. Don't let him mess around with other girls outside again."

"I can't even protect myself from thieves in my own house, how dare I say anything else?" Pei Ning said.

"There are actually people like this? It's really shameful." Jiang Xiaobai echoed.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Lin Bai took Pei Ning away.

The two returned to the cave, feeling that the short separation was better than a new marriage.

Perhaps because she knew that Lin Bai had suffered outside, Sister Pei was exceptionally gentle and cooperative.

After a long rest, Pei Ning grabbed Lin Bai's wrist and asked, "Where did this chain come from?"

She stared at it for a long time, but didn't find anything mysterious. She just felt that it had a hint of water, and seemed like an ordinary thing.

"I'll tell you later." Lin Bai smiled.

There was no secret between the two of them, but since Lin Bai said so, Pei Ning knew that the matter was serious.

After two days of fuss, Pei Ning returned to Tianchi Sect, and Lin Bai went to pay for the accommodation again.

"What is this?" Jiang Xiaobai also grabbed the wrist and looked at it carefully for a long time. "You went out for a while, and you hooked up with someone else's girl..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Bai pressed it.

Jiang Xiaobai is not someone who is easy to mess with. Lin Bai tasted the fruits on the twigs for a long time and took a lot of effort to finally convince her.

"I have given you everything, inside and out. Yet you always hide secrets from me." Jiang Xiaobai pinched Lin Bai hard.

Lin Bai coaxed him for a long time again.

After making a fuss for a long time, Lin Bai finally had some free time and took his obedient disciple back to the cave to meditate.

Sitting cross-legged in front of a low desk, Lin Bai drew talismans and calmed his mind, while Miaomiao watched beside him.

I drew more than a dozen blinding talismans, but only completed two, and I was sweating profusely.

"Master is not at peace," Miaomiao was the most considerate. While rubbing Lin Bai's shoulders, she said, "Sister Xiaoyuer has grown up. I'll let her accompany Master."

She had long wanted to sell the ginger fish so that she could fulfill her filial duty.

Lin Bai was indeed a little restless.

During the previous incident with Cang Yun Sect, Gu Qingshui did not show up. It must have been because Patriarch Yang and the fox persuaded him to stop.

But Gu Qingshui's name contains the character "水", but his temperament is not as gentle as water. He must have been holding back a fire in his heart.

Therefore, Gu Qingshui will never give up and is just waiting for the right opportunity.

Now that he has been recruited by Gu Qingshui, he will inevitably be involved in the battle for the Nascent Soul stage.

However, his own life force is special, and if Gu Qingshui wants to use it, he is afraid that he will not only be involved in the battle of Nascent Soul, but also go deep into it.

The Gu family would not throw it away after using it, but with the Nascent Soul fighting, a young Foundation Establishment might get seriously injured just by watching it.

"You should go back and practice well." Lin Bai drove Miaomiao away.

"Then should I bring Sister Xiaoyuer here later?" Miaomiao only thought about fulfilling her filial duty.

"You should stop worrying and focus on your cultivation." Lin Bai scolded her.

Miaomiao muttered something to herself, and no one knew what she said. She left reluctantly.

When he was the only one left in the cave, Lin Bai opened the alchemy book that Gu Yao had given him.

This is a family heirloom of the Gu family, which consists of the notes and insights of alchemists of successive generations. It is much more valuable than the ones of the Zhu family.

It also records many recipes for elixirs. In addition to the common ones, there are also many unconventional ones. The quality and shape of spiritual materials and herbs are recorded in particular detail.

After reading for a long time, he closed the book and put it aside.

After sitting quietly for a while, Lin Bai began to make elixirs to calm his mind.

After refining for two times, Lin Bai looked closely at the bracelet on his wrist. It was woven from grass branches, and its craftsmanship was better than Miaomiao's, with a slight hint of water.

Faintly, one can feel that the bracelet is connected to one's own Qi.

I closed my eyes and came to the stone plate. The moonlight formed a circle outside the clouds and mist, and Xiuxiu had made progress again.

There was also a light green water mark like a line. Gu Qingshui's bracelet did not show its power, it was only connected to Lin Bai's aura, so it looked very weak.

Without any thought of good or bad, Lin Bai flipped his palm and clouds and mist surged.

The moon-white water ring disappeared immediately, as did the light green water mark.

A sense of incompleteness arose in my heart, and the vague feeling of connection disappeared.

But after only two breaths, the feeling of connection came back. The light blue water marks outside the clouds and mist reappeared.

The connection with the bracelet was cut off, but not completely severed. After all, Aunt Gu was a Yuanying, and her abilities should not be underestimated.

After opening his eyes, Lin Bai stroked the bracelet carefully, wondering in his heart whether this broken chain was woven by Aunt Gu herself.

"When I cut off the connection just now, I didn't have any idea whether it was good or bad. I don't know if Aunt Gu would take it to heart after I cut off the connection for a while..."

Before Lin Bai could finish his sigh, he saw rippling green waves in front of him.

Gu Qingshui walked out. She was wearing a light green Taoist robe, and her figure was a little thin and frail, but there seemed to be waves on her chest, and there was no emotion in her deep eyes.

Lin Bai looked at her, then quickly lay down, behaving very obediently.

Gu Qingshui didn't say anything.

Lin Bai had no idea what was good or bad, and didn't dare to speak.

"Li Chenyu said that you are a worry-free person, and it is true." The voice was faint, as if far away and near, and no one knew where it came from.

"..." Lin Bai didn't dare to say anything.

"What is this?" Gu Qingshui asked again. Lin Bai raised his head and saw that Gu Qingshui was holding two blinding talismans in his hand.

"This is a talisman that I made specially for the ancestor, and it is called the Blind Talisman. Within two quarters of an hour, it can block deductions and conceal the secrets of heaven." Lin Bai immediately presented the treasure.

Gu Qingshui didn't say anything.

Lin Bai didn't dare to say anything.

After a long time, Gu Qingshui looked around and said, "Don't be obsessed with women, focus on your cultivation." Maybe she smelled Pei Ning's presence, or maybe she was just a talkative fox.

This sentence is not harsh, but rather gentle, as if an elder is teaching a younger generation.

After he finished speaking, faint ripples appeared on Gu Qingshui's body, followed by ripples, and finally, the two blinding talismans disappeared.

"I am willing to indulge in women." After the person left, Lin Bai dared to reply silently in his heart.

After a long pause, Lin Bai didn't dare to do anything weird anymore and just concentrated on meditation.

Two days later, Zhu Yushu and Tian Wanjun came to visit.

"My uncle is staying in Qingyun Mountain. Wanjun and I went to take a look. We came to visit him when we passed by here." The two families had a very close relationship, and Zhu Yushu spoke directly.

After chatting for a while, the couple left.

Two days later, while he was training his apprentice, another guest came to visit.

It was Tian Yangchun, and he brought two young female descendants with him.

Tian Yangchun seemed to have aged a lot, but there was a hint of relief on his face. He must have been comforted by the Gu family.

"Is this your disciple? I heard from Yushu that he is also a descendant of the Zhu family, and he looks really well-behaved." Tian Yangchun saw Miaomiao saluting, so he quickly released his spiritual power to lift her up, and then took out a long sword and handed it to Miaomiao, saying, "Your master is gentle and polite, and he is willing to help people in times of crisis, just like a precious sword hidden in its sheath, without revealing its frost blade."

"Thank you, senior." Miaomiao took it in a serious manner, no longer lazy as usual, but seemed to be imitating Jiang Yu.

Tian Yangchun smiled and nodded, then looked at Lin Bai and said, "You helped me last time and saved many of my children. The master is very grateful and asked me to come and thank you. When I heard that you and Taoist Zhu were back, I went to Qingyun Mountain first and saw Brother Zhu, so I came here again."

After talking for a while, Tian Yangchun took out a wooden box and said, "This is the Dream Fish Pill, a specialty of my Tian family. It helps to break through the small realm and is not inferior to the Huayuan Pill of Yunxia Sect."

"There is one more," Tian Yangchun sighed, and then continued, "Although the previous incident was caused by the two major factions, it was Lu Shiping who came to my house to ask for the fish bead grass. Here are seven plants, please accept them."

"Tian Lao," Lin Bai immediately refused, "Fish Pearl Grass is only used in the Golden Core Stage. I haven't even reached the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage yet, how can I use it?"

“When friends encounter difficulties, you can face them head-on without fear of hardships. With such spirit, why worry about not achieving your goal?” Tian Yangchun smiled.

Seeing the other person's sincerity, Lin Bai let Miaomiao accept the gift.

"These are two of my family's descendants," Tian Yangchun pointed at the two young female cultivators, "They look pretty good. I usually keep them with me to help me with alchemy. They are quite smart."

Lin Bai glanced at the two female practitioners. They didn't dare to look at him. Their faces were flushed as if they were shy.

After going around in circles for so many years, Lin Bai found that he still couldn't get rid of the stigma of being a breeder.

"Whoever you like, keep him by your side and serve him. He can do anything from refining medicine to cleaning." Tian Yangchun said.

"Senior, can't we have both? My master..." Miaomiao was just asking curiously when Lin Bai held her head down.

"Mr. Tian, ​​I'm used to being alone." Lin Bai quickly refused. "Even my Taoist partner doesn't come all the time. Mr. Tian, ​​I appreciate your kindness."

"Don't worry, they are obedient and sensible." Tian Yangchun recommended, "If you like quietness, it's okay to not let them talk."

"That's not the case." Lin Bai showed a resolute look, "Yushu and I are friends of life and death. I call Tian Wanjun sister-in-law. There is no need for us to be so polite."

Seeing that Lin Bai had spoken out, Tian Yangchun stopped forcing him. He took out another wooden box and said, "You are a master of alchemy, so you are naturally skilled. But a single tree cannot make a forest. My family has some inheritance, so please accept it. If you need anything in the future, just send a message to Guinong Mountain."

The Gu family just sent something, and the Tian family sent something again.

"Obedience is worse than respect." Lin Bai accepted everyone who came.

After some more chat, Tian Yangchun was sent away.

Lin Bai took out the box containing the Dream Fish Pill and threw it to Miaomiao.

"A gift for Master's wife?" Miaomiao took the box and patted her chest. "I'll go to Tianchi Sect! Master, don't worry. I will tell Master's wife about Senior Tian giving his daughter away and how Master is not moved by women!"

Miaomiao is not only filial but also sensible. Apart from occasionally bullying her master and being lazy, she has no other shortcomings.

Lin Bai was very pleased, thinking that this disciple was not in vain. He understood what he meant without any instructions.

After that, there were no more guests visiting. Lin Bai studied the alchemy books of the Gu and Tian families, but he was not in a hurry to practice.

Although we are short of spirit stones now, it is not a critical matter.

Aunt Gu may cause trouble at any time, so the right thing to do is to strengthen yourself.

January passed quickly and Gu Yao came to visit.

"The flying knives have been refined." Gu Yao was like a shopkeeper. "This time they are not made with Fire Scale Ore, but with Fire-Yin Stone Ore. This set of flying knives is made according to your wishes, using 100-refined blue gold without any impurities. I asked the elders in the sect to refine them. They are all third-grade low-grade, which is better than your original ones!"

As he spoke, he took out the Feiyun Banner and said, "The Feiyun Banner you had before was given by Yang Bing. She is an ignorant person, what can she understand? The one my family made this time was taken from the Tianyun Beast in the late stage of foundation building, which is several times better than hers."

Lin Bai admired Gu Yao very much. This elder sister was very normal at ordinary times. But whenever she came into contact with Yang Bing, she would definitely compare who was better and belittle the other person to death.

On the contrary, if it were Yang Bing, she would not have a single good word to say to Gu Yao.

"What was lost in the Cang Yun Sect before has now been made up." Gu Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, senior sister." Lin Bai said gratefully.

"No need to thank me." Gu Yao stretched out her hand and said, "I heard that you also have the skill of making talismans, so I want you to present a few talismans to see what you are capable of."

I know that after Aunt Gu tasted the sweetness, she will definitely become a repeat customer!
Lin Bai was already prepared. He took out a wooden box and handed it over.

"The ancestor said at least twenty talismans." Gu Yao said.

"What?"

Lin Bai was shocked and thought, is Aunt Gu trying to squeeze me dry?
To make this blinding talisman, one must use the natal mist, which consumes a lot of energy. Moreover, if one is distracted for a moment, it will fail.

He took out ten more talismans from the storage ring and stuffed them into the wooden box.

"Please ask senior sister to pass on a message for me and tell them that I am not good at making talismans and I don't have enough energy. I hope the ancestor will have mercy on me." Lin Bai said honestly.

"Pity?" Gu Yao frowned.

"Consideration, it's consideration." Lin Bai corrected.

"I will pass on the message for you." Gu Yao agreed with a smile, and then asked: "Is there anything else you want? Have you studied the alchemy book last time? Have you used up all the spiritual materials?"

"The spiritual materials have been used up long ago!" Actually, they were not used up. Lin Bai was a person who would never suffer a loss. He added, "Senior sister, your family is a Nascent Soul family, so you must have a lot of treasures. I want to learn a secret technique so that I can go out and travel in the future without losing face for our Gu family."

"What kind of secret technique?" Gu Yao also became interested. She crossed her legs and leaned forward. "I remember you had a Taoist partner. Do you want a dual cultivation method? Hehehe, I actually have this at home." She counted on her fingers. "I have secretly read it before. There are many books. Some are complementary, some are for replenishing yin and yang, and some have miraculous healing effects. There are even methods for fighting monsters... hehe."

As she spoke, she blinked at Lin Bai, as if to say, "I understand."

"That's not the case." Lin Bai said righteously, "I have never been interested in women, I just like drinking occasionally." He showed his gentlemanly status, and then whispered, "For example, you can exchange injuries for injuries, or some experience in escaping, no matter what. Even the way of deduction, or even the forbidden method, are all possible. I will accept anyone."

At this point, Lin Bai revealed his true intentions, "If you tell our ancestor about this, she might give you an unparalleled magic trick."

"You still know the unparalleled magic method? I only know the dual cultivation magic method. I'll go back and ask." Gu Yao nodded, and then said: "Brother Yun, our generation should focus on cultivation and not be greedy."

"I just want to broaden my horizons." Lin Bai smiled freely.

Gu Yao didn't ask any more questions, chatted for a few more minutes, and then said goodbye and left.

Two months later, Gu Yao came again.

"The ancestor said that if one wants to practice magic, one should start with formations." Gu Yao took out an old booklet titled The Essentials of Formations.

"..." Lin Bai realized that Aunt Gu was really going to cause trouble, and he had to get involved in it, maybe to set up the formation.

"Also," Gu Yao smiled, "The ancestor said that you are quite talented in making talismans, so I want you to offer it as a tribute."

Lin Bai had a headache. He didn't get any benefit at all and was first squeezed dry by Aunt Gu.

After being in a daze for a long time, Lin Bai thought that if he became successful in the future, he must take it back.

"Why do you look so hopeless?" Gu Yao asked curiously.
