Chapter 112: Collecting hush money, going to Guiyuan Mountain (Requesting full order)
Li Qing held the jade cup and sipped the tea gently. He felt the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth, and his mind was refreshed. Even his consciousness became clear: "Good tea!"

Zhang Tingyun smiled and said, "Of course it's good tea. This tea is picked from the mother tree in the courtyard of Xuan Palace. Normally, I would not be willing to take it out to entertain guests."

The center of the Xuan Palace is the National Master's Dojo, where there is a thousand-year-old tea king planted by the National Master. Although it is only a third-level spiritual plant now, it is of extraordinary significance and is therefore highly sought after.

Li Qing finished the tea in the cup and looked at Zhang Tingyun seriously: "I just met you by chance, why do you invite me so kindly? Please tell me clearly."

Zhang Tingyun clapped his hands and laughed, "Fellow Daoist, you are a straightforward person. I will speak directly. This Lingtao Secret Realm is of great importance and contains many secrets. Please do not tell outsiders."

Li Qing's heart trembled, his eyes were like lightning, staring at the other party: "Could it be that this flying boat crashed into the secret realm because Xuan Palace deliberately indulged?"

"That's not the case." Zhang Tingyun shook his head. "I can't explain the secrets. I can only tell you if I have a clear conscience."

Li Qing's mind was in turmoil, but he finally took a long breath and said, "Forget it, since it is a secret of the Xuan Palace, I will not ask about it anymore."

"That's very good."

Zhang Tingrun clapped his hands toward the door, and soon two boys came, each holding a tray, and presented it to the two men.

On the two trays, there was a jade talisman and a crystal stone that was glowing with spiritual light.

Zhang Tingyun introduced them one by one, "I'm sure you have seen this jade talisman before. It is the certificate for obtaining the visualization diagram."

"This crystal is the crystal marrow of a third-level spiritual vein. If placed in a second-level spiritual vein, it can produce a medium-quality spiritual stone ore. Although it is not as good as the one produced by a crystal cave, it is also extremely precious."

"After the flying boat lost contact, Xuan Palace immediately issued a reward. Now that Daoist friend has informed me, this bonus should naturally belong to Daoist friend."

Li Qing knew that this was hush money, so he did not refuse and took it calmly: "Then thank you Xuan Gong for your generous gift."

Zhang Tingyun relaxed his expression, took out a secret contract, asked Li Qing to sign it, and then poured him a cup of tea: "Daoyou, please!"

Li Qing raised his glass and said, “Please!”

The thrilling journey to the secret place came to an end here.

Li Qing carried Li Hu, whose belly was full from eating so much, and took the next flying boat to the Lu family's territory, Guiyuan Mountain, without even visiting Xuanli Market.

After Xuanli Market was left far behind, Li Qing sealed the cabin with a ban and asked Ah Sun in Dantian: "How is it? Do you feel the beginning of a crisis?"

Ah Sun shook his head: "Yeah."

Acao, Chaoyin and Xiaolian also shook their heads in agreement, each of them looking very comfortable.

Fairy bugs are born to seek good fortune and avoid evil.

Seeing their reaction, Li Qingcai breathed a sigh of relief: "After all, we are weak and powerless. We can only let others manipulate us. There is nothing we can do."

After hearing this, Asun and the others came out of their Dantian and rubbed against him to comfort him.

Li Hu also realized it later and pulled his hand: "Awoo."

Li Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why don't you say something I can understand!"

Li Hu turned his head, released the kittens from the pet bag, and played with them.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong on this flying boat trip, and it arrived near Guiyuan Mountain smoothly.

Li Qing took Asun and the others back to his dantian, took Li Hu down from the flying boat, and walked towards Guiyuan Mountain on foot. Soon, a tall mountain stood before them. On it, spiritual energy surged, clouds and mist rose, and a long rainbow hung on the top, giving off a fairy-like atmosphere.

There is a clear spring flowing down from the mountain peak, the rapid water hits the rocks and makes a clear sound.

"Turtle!" Li Hu pointed at the stream excitedly and shared his new discovery with Li Qing.

Li Qing had naturally noticed it a long time ago: "Yeah, there's also a turtle."

There are not many fish in this clear stream, but there are quite a few turtles and tortoises of all sizes, both ordinary species and spiritual beasts, and they are very close to each other.

Some of them swam underwater, while others poked their heads out of the water. They all seemed contented and not afraid of people at all.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a gate tower with three big characters "Guitan Mountain" written on it in Yuan Dynasty script. It is so majestic that people will be shocked at the sight of it.

Two receptionists were standing on both sides of the gatehouse. When they saw Li Qing and his companions, they hurried over to greet them: "Greetings, senior, and this young Taoist friend, I wonder why you two came to our Guiyuan Mountain?"

Li Qing slightly revealed his foundation-building aura and said with a smile, "I come from the Li family of Qinghe Valley, by the Xuefeng Lake. I heard that the ancestors of the Lu family were broad-minded and willing to share the Dharma, so I came here to ask for the Dharma!"

Having said that, he asked Li Hu to present the visiting card that he had prepared.

The two receptionists looked solemn. One of them took the visiting card and turned the title page. "It turns out it's Senior Li Qing in person! We are honored to be here. Please come in!"

Li Qing then took Li Hu and, under the guidance of a receptionist, they passed the mountain protection formation and headed towards the Lu family's land above.

This Turtle Mountain also has a degraded third-level spiritual vein, and its spiritual energy is far more abundant than that of the Qinghe Valley.

Just like at the foot of the mountain, there are many magical turtles and tortoises in the mountain. Some are ignorant, while others have a gleam of wisdom in their eyes.

Li Hu squatted on the ground curiously and looked at a giant turtle with a green shell and golden edges and a prominent head: "Wow..."

The big turtle was not afraid of strangers. It raised its stubby claws and touched his little hand, making a dull sound: "Hululu..."

Li Qing scanned the turtle with his spiritual sense and found that it was actually a first-class spiritual beast. He couldn't help but sighed: "The Lu family is indeed a thousand-year-old clan. Even spiritual beasts like this can be seen everywhere."

"Senior, you are too kind!" Lu Cong, the head of the Lu family, received the message and hurried over to greet him. "There are not many first-grade high-quality spirit turtles in my Lu family, but this little Taoist friend just happened to get one."

Li Qing looked around and said, "I heard that the ancestor of the Lu family had a connection with a third-level middle-grade spirit turtle in Turtle Mountain, and then he opened up a Taoist temple and passed down the Lu family lineage. Is this true?"

Lu Cong smiled and waved his hands: "It's just a rumor."

Li Qing knew that there was no smoke without fire, but he did not ask too much to avoid being annoying.

What's more, after seeing the Sang family's heritage, he has developed a deeper respect for these ancient families.

Although the Lu family's ancestor who had established the foundation has passed away, among the turtles and tortoises in the mountains, who knows how many of them are second-level spirit beasts equivalent to those in the foundation-building stage?
He stopped beating around the bush and told Lu Cong his purpose again: "I want to learn a method of cultivation in the foundation-building stage. What are the rules?"

In the past few years, Lu Cong has also received many great foundation-building monks who came to seek the Dharma. He was very calm: "This is not difficult, senior, please follow me!"

Li Qing looked down at Li Hu, and Li Hu stood up obediently and waved to the big turtle: "Let's go!"

The big turtle walked forward with its short legs, squatted down, and motioned Li Hu to sit on it.

Seeing this, Lu Cong was very surprised: "This young friend, he really suits your taste."
