Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

In the residence of the prefect Cao Ruhai, he was sitting in the study, holding the bottle of the fifth-grade elixir he had bought at a auction in his hand, and he was so happy.

The elixir can increase the power of immortal cultivators when eaten, and prolong life when eaten by ordinary people.

The higher the grade of the elixir, the more significant its effect in prolonging life.

I spent more than ten thousand taels of silver. If I could live a few more decades, it would all be worth it.

He uncorked the bottle and sniffed it.

The sweet taste of the elixir goes straight into my heart.

He felt as if he was flying, as if he was younger, and had a feeling of ascending to heaven. He closed his eyes involuntarily and immersed himself in the pleasure.

But at this moment, the door was pushed open and a cool breeze blew in.

If anyone dared to come in without knocking, he would get angry as soon as he opened his eyes.

But he froze immediately because the person who came in was Lu Xunhuan.

He was stunned for a moment, then quickly hid the porcelain bottle in his sleeve.

Lu Xun Huan closed the door and walked over to sit down opposite him. "Can I borrow ten of these fifth-grade immortal pills?"

Cao Ruhai's face showed all kinds of expressions.

He asked, "How did you know?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "Did you hear who was taking the photo of the dragon bone in box number five?"

Cao Ruhai asked again, "Were you in Box 5 at the time? By the way, who was that person? Was that dragon bone really a dragon bone?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "It's just a piece of bone. Who knows if it's a dragon bone or a pig bone? I'm not an expert. That guy is stupid and insisted on taking a photo. The money is not mine, so who cares?"

Cao Ruhai clutched the porcelain bottle in his sleeve tightly: "Who is that person?"

Lu Xunhuan replied, "Zhao Yi."

Cao Ruhai frowned and asked, "Is it him?"

Lu Xun Huan pondered for a moment and said, "The people in the other boxes are basically from Zhongzhou. They all know each other's secrets and can keep it a secret. Only Zhao Yi was sent by the Sixth Prince. He heard you bid for the elixir, Lieutenant Li bid for the sword, and Judge Shen bid several times. He heard it all clearly."

He touched his chin: "If he goes back and reports this to the Sixth Prince..."

Cao Ruhai's face changed from gloomy to bright. "So, he asked you to come to me for the elixir?"

Lu Xun Huan nodded: "He wants you to give half of it, otherwise where will you get so much money? If you can't explain it and do it properly, you will be charged with corruption..."

Cao Ruhai cursed: "Robber..."

Lu Xun Huan advised, "Sir, calm down. As the saying goes, giving money will avoid disaster."

Cao Ruhai sulked for a moment and asked again, "Who is in box number three? Anyone who can sit in box number three must be someone important."

Lu Xun Huan fooled him, saying, "A distinguished guest from Feixian Sect."

He stretched out his hand and said, "Take it out. I'll go back and report quickly."

Cao Ruhai stood up, went to get an empty porcelain bottle, and poured out ten pills with great pain. He handed the porcelain bottle to Lu Xunhuan: "Xunhuan, we are all family. You must understand this in your heart."

Lu Xun Huan hid the porcelain bottle and said, "From the first day I came to Zhongzhou City and met Cao Sima, I knew we were family. I will always remember the kindness the prefect has shown me."

He stood up and said, "Sir, I won't bother you any more. Go to bed early."

After saying that, he opened the door and went.

Cao Ruhai sat in his study, feeling sullen again, and cursed, "That bastard Zhao Yi..."

When Lu Xunhuan returned to the courtyard in the south of the city, Elder He had also returned.

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Did you beat that guy away?"

Elder He rolled his eyes. "Is it that easy? Let me tell you, that man's strength is above mine. That means he doesn't want to kill me. If he did, I would have died in the south of the city tonight."

Lu Xunhuan was surprised and asked, "More powerful than you?"

Elder He turned around and said, "I'm not a good bodyguard."

Lu Xunhuan stopped talking nonsense with him and hurried into the room.

"Uncle Master, how are you?"

Zhou Fenqing's face was as pale as gold paper. He coughed twice and said weakly, "Nephew, don't force it. Let everyone go out. I have some last words..."

Lu Xun Huan took out the porcelain bottle and said, "Stop talking about life and death. Live well. Only when you are alive can I be safe. Why don't you understand?"

Zhou Fenqing stared at the porcelain bottle in his hand: "Fifth-grade?"

Lu Xun Huan poured out a fifth-grade immortal pill and fed it to him: "Eat."

After Zhou Fenqing ate the elixir, he helped him up again: "Heal your wounds quickly."

On the side, Qing Dai asked in surprise: "Where did you find the fifth-grade immortal pill so quickly?"

Lu Xunhuan turned around and said, "Qingdai, please go out and don't disturb my uncle from healing. Oh, where's the captain?"

Qingdai replied, "I'm leaving."

After Qingdai left the room, Zhou Fenqing circulated his strength, drawing on the power of the elixir, circulated it several times, and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lu Xunhuan stepped forward and asked, "How do you feel?"

Zhou Fenqing nodded: "Much better."

Lu Xun Huan poured out another elixir: "Take another one and you will recover quickly."

Zhou Fenqing opened his mouth and swallowed the elixir: "This thing is hard to find. Who did you ask for it?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "Hurry up and heal your wounds. Once you're well, leave immediately and don't stay in Zhongzhou City any longer."

He left the room, closed the door, looked toward the courtyard, and asked, "Where is Elder He?"

Qingdai replied, "I'm leaving."

She said to Lu Xunhuan, "Put your things in my room."

Lu Xunhuan took a step forward and asked, "Did the captain take Feihong away?"

Qingdai followed him: "Well, she said there is a new task assigned to Feihong."

The two of them arrived at Qingdai's room. Lu Xunhuan walked to the table, opened the small box, took out the white jade bracelet, and looked at it again: "This is a family heirloom of General Lan's family. I bought it and returned it to the Lan family."

Qingdai nodded: "Yeah."

Lu Xunhuan put the white jade bracelet away, opened the somewhat rotten wooden box, took out the foot-long stick head, and felt the warmth gradually coming from it.

Qing Dai asked, "What kind of treasure is this?"

Lu Xunhuan handed her the stick head: "Feel it."

Qingdai took the stick and said, "It's cold and quite heavy."

Lu Xunhuan said, "Feel it for a while longer."

Qing Dai asked, "Is there anything special about it? Could it be a magical weapon?"

Lu Xun Huan stood up and made a pot of tea: "I don't know either. It's just a gamble."

After Qingdai held it for a while, he asked again, "How do you feel?"

Qingdai shook her head and said, "Apart from the coldness, I don't feel anything."

Lu Xun Huan took the stick head back and felt it himself again: "I'll study it for a while, you can do whatever you want."

Qingdai's eyes became meaningful: "Then... I'm going to take a shower?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "Winter dates? It's not in season yet, right?"

Qingdai's face turned red. Without saying anything, she stood up, got some clothes, and left in a hurry.

Lu Xunhuan held the stick head, and after just a moment, he felt the warmth from the stick head entering his palm.

He couldn't help but ponder. If it was really just a piece of scrap copper and iron, there would definitely be no reaction. But in fact, the tip of the stick really made him feel warm.

This shows that it is very likely to be a part of some magical weapon.

But he can feel the warmth, but Qingdai can't. Why is that?

In other words, it is very likely that only he can feel the changes in the stick head, and no one else can.

Could it be because I am related to monkeys?

He died in his previous life because of a monkey.

When I arrived in this world, a golden hoop inexplicably appeared.

He went to the Nine-story Demon Tower, and as if destined by heaven, he killed a demon monkey and ate its inner elixir.

What kind of relationship do I have with that monkey?

He took out the cloth-wrapped golden hoop from his arms and put it together with the stick head.

After a while, he discovered that the Tai Chi Bagua diagram on the stick began to rotate slightly.

He was afraid that he was dazzled, so he wiped his eyes quickly and looked carefully again.

That’s right, the Tai Chi Bagua diagram on the top of the stick was really rotating slowly.

He looked at the stick for a long time, thinking for a long time.

No matter how you look at it, logically, this matter cannot be explained. His heart is like being shrouded in fog, unable to see through or guess.

Everything is like a mystery.

Just as he was lost in thought, Zhou Fenqing's voice came from the courtyard: "Nephew, I'm healed. Thank you. I'm leaving now. Take care."

Lu Xunhuan turned around and said, "So fast? Walk slowly."

Then, he put away the golden hoop and the stick head.

Returning to the table, he took out the porcelain vase.

There are still eight fifth-grade elixirs left in the bottle.

He was very impulsive and wanted to eat one to see how much power he could gain from it.

But thinking that this thing was precious and could save his life, he was reluctant to eat it.

Just when he was hesitating, the door opened gently, a fragrant breeze wafted in, and Qingdai came back.

She had just finished taking a bath and was as beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water.

She walked to the table, with expectation in her eyes, and pulled Lu Xunhuan up.

A moment later, the only light in the courtyard in the south of the city went out.
