Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Lu Li then spent the entire afternoon in a cycle of repair.

By the evening, he finally couldn't hold on any longer and lay down on the stone platform with no desire to live.

If Chen Yulou and his gang saw him like this.

It will definitely be surprising.

How can this be the Taoist Master Lu with an immortal demeanor?

Like an eagle that has been tortured, both eyes are red.

He was so tired that his mind was in a mess.

He took out some water from the talisman, gulped down a few big gulps, then lay down on the stone platform and fell asleep without caring about anything.

It was not until the moon was at its highest point in the sky that Lu Li woke up from his sleep.

When I just woke up, I seemed a little dazed.

After taking a closer look at the surroundings, the confusion in Lu Li's eyes gradually dissipated.

"Alas! It seems that I need to train my mental strength more when I go back.

How can you be a man if you can't fight persistently? "

With his funny side aroused, Lu Li sat on the stone platform and talked to himself.

I think back to when I still had a lot of work to do.

He began to regulate his breathing, and fortunately after half a day's sleep, he recovered most of his energy.

After only a quarter of an hour of meditation, the magical power was replenished.

The same thing happened the next day, until by the evening all the bamboo slips were finally repaired thanks to his hard work.

Looking at the neatly arranged bamboo slips in front of him, Lu Li felt a surge of pride.

These are all what I found.

Just a simple statistics.

There are a total of 133 volumes of bamboo slips.

It contains fifty-six volumes of exercises.

Fifteen volumes of strange stories.

Forty volumes of knowledge on alchemy.

The rest are all Taoist scriptures.

It can be seen that the ancients still attached great importance to the art of alchemy, and also advocated becoming immortal by swallowing pills.

But Lu Li's attention was all focused on the fifty-six volumes of skills, which naturally included the "Golden Light Mantra" that he valued most.

After putting away all the bamboo slips, Lu Li took one last look at the place.

He walked out and collapsed the cave with a backhand punch.

It's better for this place to disappear.

Riding the flying sword, Lu Li flew towards Maoshan.

As the distance gets closer.

Lu Li's heart was full of anticipation.

He was away for several months and experienced many dangers during this period.

He now missed the peaceful life he and Uncle Jiu had in Maoshan.

Soon Ermao Peak appeared in front of Lu Li.

It was still early spring when we left, but it was already summer when we came back.

This mountain is full of lush greenery.

All kinds of flowers are blooming, vying with each other for beauty.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Li arrived at Wanning Palace.

He knew that Uncle Jiu was not used to staying in the main hall.

He usually stays in the backyard of Wanning Palace.

So the flying sword landed directly in the backyard.

Sure enough, as soon as he flew down, he saw Uncle Jiu, Wencai and the old foreigner drinking tea in the pavilion.

A voice was heard from above.

When Uncle Jiu and the other two looked up, they saw a flash of blue light.

Lu Li's familiar smiling face appeared in the yard.

"Big Brother!"

The old foreigner Wencai ran over and shouted in surprise.

Lu Li touched the two of them on the head.

See they are still the same.

Wencai has gained a lot of weight, and there is some fat on his face.

"Master!"

Lu Li came to the pavilion with a smile and sat directly next to Uncle Jiu.

He also added new water to his teacup.

The moment Uncle Jiu saw Lu Li.

He smiled at first, but then his face turned stern again.

"Well, I'm back."

"I'm back. Master, why are you unhappy to see me?"

Lu Li pretended to know nothing.

"Happy, how could I not be happy?"

Uncle Jiu said he was happy, but there was no expression on his face.

Then he added: "I have prepared a gift for you."

Oh? Uncle Jiu also prepared a gift for me.

This is really rare.

In all my life, I have received gifts from Uncle Jiu only a few times.

"Master, what have you prepared for me? We are so polite to each other as master and disciple."

Boom!

"Ouch! Master, why did you hit me?"

Lu Li covered his head with his hands. Just now, Uncle Jiu took advantage of Lu Li's drinking time to give him a slap on the head.

Uncle Jiu pretended to be puzzled and said, "This is the gift for you! Why don't you like it?"

Lu Li knew in his heart that Uncle Jiu was deliberately taking revenge on him.

Who told him to speak half-sentences on purpose?

Uncle Jiu couldn’t sleep these two days because of this.

I could only grit my teeth and say, "I like it. I like it very much. How can I not like something that Master gave me?"

This time, Uncle Jiu nodded with a satisfied smile on his face.

"I'm glad you like it! You haven't eaten yet, Wencai, why don't you bring the food to your senior brother."

"Hey!"

Wencai responded and trotted to the kitchen.

After a while, he came up with a tray in his hand.

Lu Li was actually quite looking forward to it, as he indeed hadn't had a good meal in the past two days.

Just drank some water.

As soon as he picked up the chopsticks, he found that the dishes on the table were all unpalatable.

The first dish is stir-fried wild vegetables.

The wild vegetable turned out to be dandelion.

Can this thing be eaten after being fried?

There was also a dish of cold bitter melon, which was also bitter, and Lu Li hated bitter vegetables the most.

His face turned green when he looked at the two dishes in front of him.

The other one looked like stewed duck. Finally, there was something edible.

Although he also doesn't like eating duck meat because it feels a bit fishy.

But I can still swallow it.

Lu Li picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup.

He drank it into his mouth, and then spat it all out.

He quickly picked up the tea bowl on the table and rinsed his mouth.

"What kind of soup is this? Why is it so bitter?"

Wencai replied blankly, "Old duck stewed with bitter gourd and lotus leaves is very good for clearing away heat and reducing internal heat.

Master prepared it specially for you, Big Brother."

Lu Li put down the spoon and covered his forehead.

"Master, I was wrong. Please don't punish me."

Uncle Jiu took a puff of his pipe and said in surprise:

"Who did that to you? Why don't you like to eat? It's been hot these days, and you can see that my eyes are bloodshot.

Alas, my liver fire is rising, so I have to eat something bitter to cool it down! "

Lu Li knew that Uncle Jiu had a strong desire for revenge.

But I still underestimated his stinginess.

"Master, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have concealed it from you.

Halfway through the speech."

After hearing Lu Li admit his mistake completely, Uncle Jiu's face finally relaxed.

He raised an eyebrow at Wencai and said, "Go and bring your eldest brother his favorite dishes."

"I understand, Master."

Wencai happily ran to the kitchen and brought over a few dishes.

By the way, take away the dark dishes on the table.

This time the dish was finally normal.

Lu Li started eating with big mouthfuls.

Uncle Jiu saw that Lu Li was enjoying his meal, so he sat beside him and smoked his pipe with a smile on his face.

“You haven’t eaten for a few days, eat slowly.

Possessed by a hungry ghost."

Lu Li said without even raising his head: "You don't know, I haven't eaten for two days. How can I not be hungry?"

This time it was Uncle Jiu's turn to be curious.

"Didn't you come back from the capital of Xiangxi Province? Why? Your friend Chen Yulou doesn't provide meals for you?"

Lu Li no longer plans to hide it from Uncle Jiu.

“I went back to Yun Mansion again, Master, and I found a cave over there.

There are more than a hundred bamboo slips in it, all brought by the Taoist predecessors during the Han Dynasty."

"what!!!"

Snapped!

The pipe in Uncle Jiu's hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

But he didn't even look at it.

This is his most valued pipe.
