After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 95

Once you pass one level, your thumb immediately taps the next one, completely out of your control!
Even so, the egrets have been playing there for seven or eight years, but they have never climbed to the top of the tree. Over the years, the tree must have grown many meters taller.

She was playing a game, and he was watching her.

For as long as the egrets played, Yunxinghu watched them, as if they could never get enough of it.

But Bai Lu, engrossed in the game, didn't notice anything. If she had, she would have wondered why he would have such deep feelings for her, since she had only spent three or less than four years of Yun Xinghu's twenty-one-year career with him.
After an unknown amount of time, the egret finally died.

She then remembered that she was there to do something important, so she quickly put away her phone, stood up, and asked Yun Xinghu, "Did you think the game we just played was fun?"

"Uh..." Even when facing Bai Lu, Yun Xinghu couldn't bring himself to say "fun" against his conscience...

He had just watched it. Forming three of them would allow them to eliminate each other. There were obstacles like ice blocks and vines, but it wasn't difficult at all, and it was incredibly boring. He didn't know why Bailu could play for so long, but... as long as she was happy!

Seeing Yun Xinghu's reaction, she knew this child was no ordinary person!
Surprisingly, she had no interest in electronic devices or video games at all. But in any case, she still had to give the remaining two phones to Sect Leader Wang and Martial Uncle Gu Xing, since they contained "gifts" that she had specially prepared for them!
Yun Xinghu: "Shall we go back to the sect now?"

"Wait a minute, I need to buy a few compasses, the kind that can bring down spirit rain and repel insects, as well as things I need for raising spirit birds!"

Yun Xinghu knew that she had been working as a handyman under the fat steward to earn spirit stones. Back then, when he was little, he even went to the fat steward to ask him to take good care of Bai Lu!

The white egret had just mentioned low-grade spiritual artifacts useful for farming. He tentatively asked, "When I return this time, I will succeed as the Ninth Elder in the sect. Do you want to change positions or do something else? I haven't asked you yet, but over the years, have you been good at refining artifacts, alchemy, or formations... Hmm? Your cultivation level? I can't see through it! You've also broken through to the late Golden Core stage? That's great!"

Yun Xinghu was overjoyed. He was currently in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and only those with higher cultivation levels than him could not see through his cultivation.

"Hehe, you're overthinking it." Bai Lu touched the bead on her neck and chuckled awkwardly. This bead could not only conceal her spiritual root, but also her cultivation level, creating the illusion for outsiders that she had profound cultivation.

There are advantages and disadvantages.

Now, Bailu can only tell Yunxinghu that the bead was a gift from Uncle Guxing, since the two will have to cooperate in the future and they can't keep everything a secret.

Upon hearing that the bead was a gift from Uncle-Master Gu Xing, Yun Xinghu was immediately relieved. He hadn't asked Bai Lu how she had been all these years because he was afraid she had had a hard time. Although he was young, he had witnessed the power of the strong in the cultivation world, and he was afraid she would be bullied when he wasn't around. But since Uncle-Master Gu Xing had given her a magic treasure, it meant she was under his protection, and she shouldn't have had too much of a hard time these years. Even if she didn't have a Golden Core, her cultivation level shouldn't be too bad!

Ah, what a beautiful misunderstanding.

If Bailu knew what Yunxing was thinking, she would shed tears.

Yun Xinghu followed Bai Lu as they strolled through the market. Thanks to Yun Xinghu's commotion, all the stall owners gave Bai Lu a fair price for the compasses she wanted. For example, Bai Lu bought a low-grade compass for 400 low-grade spirit stones, the kind that the fat steward had bought for 500 low-grade spirit stones.

She bought five in one go, after all, her family's fields are scattered across three areas, and she also needs to grow fruit!

Even this might not be enough!

She also bought some low-level pills.

It wasn't for her to eat; she bought it for the piglets and chicks to eat, to help them eliminate impurities from their bodies and reduce the egret's workload. Otherwise, she would have to use her spiritual energy to cleanse them every now and then—which is quite a task.

After they finished shopping, the two set off back to the Bu Liu Xing Sect. Yun Xing Hu was a sword cultivator. He threw his natal spirit sword into the sky and stepped onto the sword while holding Bai Lu.

Egret has experienced flying on a sword before, but every time he rides a flying sword, he feels that the risk factor is too high - there is not even a seat belt!
What if I fall?

Although flying on a sword doesn't reach as high as modern airplanes, the height is not to be underestimated. If someone falls without safety measures, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would be smashed into a pile of minced meat.

She stared straight ahead, never looking down, her hands tightly gripping Yun Xinghu's belt, unaware of the wide grin that stretched from Yun Xinghu's lips to his ears.

After flying for about 15 minutes, they finally disembarked from their flying sword when they reached the no-fly zone of the Bu Liu Xing Sect. The egret's hair was sticking up, and its face was almost frozen by the strong wind.

"and many more!"

Just as she was about to step into the gate of the Bu Liu Xing Sect, Bai Lu called out to Yun Xing Hu, and then pulled out a small mirror from somewhere—to remove her makeup.

Yun Xinghu watched in disbelief as the egret transformed itself, his jaw nearly dropping in astonishment.

But once the disguise was removed, the appearance vaguely resembled the one he remembered. It turned out that this was the real egret!

"Did you take a face-changing pill? No, that's not right. Face-changing pills only blur the perception of those who see your appearance. They have no effect on those whose cultivation is a whole realm higher than yours. But I clearly see a completely different appearance of yours!"

Yun Xinghu was very puzzled.

Bai Lu wiped her lips, having just applied lipstick, then put away the small mirror and said mysteriously, "This isn't ordinary magic; it's the most advanced head-swapping technique in our world!"

"A head transplant?"

Yun Xinghu was taken aback.

"Yes, I've completely changed my appearance. Didn't I leave no trace of my true identity?"

Yun Xinghu nodded blankly.

The world where the egret originally lived was truly a magical world!

When he was a child, he longed to do it when Bailu talked about it, and now he longs for it even more!
A head transplant? That sounds so high-tech, a must-have for murder and robbery.

If only he had the chance to go to the world where Bailu lives to learn—although he could ask Bailu for advice, he would rather go back to her world with her and see the place where she grew up.

What kind of magical place is it?

"Let's go back to the sect!"

Bailu intends to walk side by side with Yunxinghu. Now that her patron is back, of course everyone should know!
This is beneficial to her grand plan to promote her mobile phone business! Sure enough, as Bai Lu and Yun Xinghu walked into the sect together, many disciples stared at them and whispered to their companions, "Who is that woman next to Senior Uncle Xinghu?"

"I don't know! Is it some senior uncle who doesn't like to go out?"

"That's possible. I can't tell her cultivation level, but she's definitely at the Foundation Establishment stage!"

Bai Lu has remained unknown all these years. It will probably take some time before the news of her being protected by Yun Xinghu spreads throughout the sect.

The two parted ways at the fork in the road leading to the outer disciples' dormitory and the main peak of the sect. Bai Lu said, "I'll be busy these few days and may not be in the sect. You should know what I mean. If anything happens, I hope you can cover it up for me. By the way, we're adding a new communication talisman. If you need to contact me, you can leave me a message and I'll reply when I see it."

"You must let me know when you come back!"

Yun Xinghu didn't ask too many questions. After all, the scene of Bai Lu disappearing was still vivid in his mind. He guessed that she had returned to the home she longed for. It didn't matter where she went, but he was afraid that she would come back without telling him, and that they would have one less chance to meet.

"it is good."

The two exchanged a communication talisman, and Bai Lu replied, "Then take your phone to the Sect Master and Uncle Gu Xing. Remember the software I told you about? Make sure the Sect Master sees it! Or you can look at it with the Sect Master and the others!"

Yun Xinghu nodded: "Okay!"

"Then I'll go back to the dormitory first. I need to go back to cultivate. You've already reached the Golden Core stage. If I don't work harder, the gap between us will widen even further." Bai Lu waved to Yun Xinghu.

“I can protect you!” Yun Xinghu said earnestly, looking into Bai Lu’s eyes.

The statement "I can protect you" and "I can support you" are essentially the same.

Before Bai Lu transmigrated, if she had met a promising young man like Yun Xinghu who was strong and might even be rich and said such things to her, she would definitely have been extremely moved and quickly fallen in love.

But now—relying on yourself is worse than relying on anyone else!
If you rely on a mountain, it will crumble; if you rely on a tree, it will fall. If you don't have your own abilities, even the strongest support will eventually crumble. When that happens, it's unimaginable how miserable your fate will be without support.

Bai Lu returned to her dormitory at 2 PM. After calming her breathing, she activated the spirit-gathering array in the courtyard. Each dormitory had a spirit-gathering array to facilitate disciples' cultivation. However, the spiritual energy in their dormitory was relatively thin, not as good as the living environment of the main peak and inner disciples. But compared to modern society, it was still worlds apart.

Bai Lu even took out the five hundred low-grade spirit stones she had earned that day, which she hadn't yet spent.

Hair growth pills cost thirty spirit stones each, and you can buy about ten for five hundred spirit stones. If you buy more, you might be able to negotiate the price.

After witnessing the effects of the hair growth pill yesterday, Bailu knew that this immense wealth was finally hers to enjoy!
It's important to know that in modern times, there are countless people suffering from Mediterranean alopecia, alopecia areata, and baldness!
She doesn't even need hair regrowth. If it could cure hair loss, or even improve it, she would be rolling in money!
Dilute and process a dozen or so hair growth pills to create your own new secret formula!
Moreover, this "secret recipe" can clean up all her "illegal income," so she no longer has to hide her spending for fear of being nagged by her mother!
However, just as she made up her mind to take out most of her savings to buy hair growth pills from the Pill Pavilion, she was told by her senior brother from the Pill Pavilion—

"Junior Sister Bailu, I'm not kidding, there's only one left! Senior Brother Jiang Run only refined two batches of pills, so there are only sixteen left!"

Bai Lu's face turned green. Her business plans were to expand overseas, and you're telling me there's only one hair growth pill left?

The late emperor passed away before his great undertaking was even half completed!
How tragic and lamentable!
"Are there really none left?" Bailu asked, unwilling to give up.

"Really, there aren't any left! -- Hey, hey, hey, Xiaolu, don't be like this! Even if you cry, I don't have any hair growth pills to conjure up for you! I don't know how to make them, and besides, why did you buy so many hair growth pills? This pill has a single and useless effect, it's not very useful."

The senior brother from the Pill Pavilion was also quite distressed: "This is because Jiang Run used the wrong spiritual plant and accidentally refined this kind of pill. It was originally going to be thrown away, but one of his pet spirit beasts ate one and fell to the ground, and all the fur that had been burned off by the fire grew back!"

"This caught the attention of Senior Brother Jiang Run. He experimented for a period of time and confirmed that the pill could make spirit beasts grow fur and cultivators grow hair. Only then did he refine a batch."

"Who knew these pills wouldn't sell well? It's been two years, and apart from the six used for testing, the ten pills haven't sold out in two years. Of course, Senior Brother Jiang Run won't refine any more!"

Bai Lu was stunned when she heard this. This pill could actually have the same effect on both humans and animals!

She touched her face, stammering, "Are you...are you sure people only grow hair, no...don't grow hair all over their bodies?"

"Senior Brother Jiang Run said he wouldn't..."

He paused for a moment, looked around, and then whispered to Bailu, "But he only tested it on three of his junior brothers. None of them had any other symptoms, but I can't guarantee whether you will have any other symptoms after taking it."

Egret: "..."

The senior brother Yifeng from the Pill Pavilion is familiar with Bailu, which is why he said so much. He wasn't on duty when she bought the pills yesterday, and the senior brother selling the pills didn't tell her any of this!
If she had known, the egret wouldn't have dared to take that risk!

What if this body hair gets out of control and she grows into a hairy ball? What's the point of a perfectly normal girl being covered in hair? How creepy!

But what's done is done; the hair has already grown back. Even if the egret tries to dredge its throat now, it's too late! It's already absorbed everything!
She could only try her best not to think about it and hope that she wouldn't grow hair all over her body in the future!

He thought he had found the secret to getting rich, but little did he know it was just an immature elixir!
The egret's beautiful wish to save millions of people suffering from hair loss has been shattered.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she asked Senior Brother Yifeng, "Senior Brother, is Senior Brother Jiang Run selling this pill formula?!"

There are no elixirs available in the cultivation world, but they are in the modern world!
It doesn't matter if it's not mature yet, because there are plenty of guinea pigs in modern society. With a few more experiments, I believe it won't be long before we can develop a hair growth pill that is suitable for the Chinese physique!

"You'll have to ask Senior Brother Jiang Run. Please wait a moment, I'll ask him for you!"

As Yi Feng spoke, he lifted the curtain and went to the backyard. A short while later, a handsome man dressed in white came out with him. The man looked at Bai Lu and asked, "Are you the one who wants to buy my pill formula?"

“Yes!” the egret nodded.

Are you an alchemist?

"No!" The egret shook its head.
