The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 62, Reborn

Seeing Gu Jinfan disappear in the blink of an eye, Hua Changxi was stunned for a moment, and quickly chased out of Xishan, but unfortunately did not find any trace of Gu Jinfan.

"Is it a teleportation spell?"

Hua Changxi frowned. She knew too few spells. All she knew were some alchemy spells. She knew almost nothing about attacking and escaping spells.

However, when Hua Changxi thought that Gu Jinfan was unable to stop the burning of the fire lotus, he truly breathed a sigh of relief.

After embarking on the path of cultivation, she has been worried that Gu Jinfan would find her.

Although she obtained the cultivation method in the red stone accidentally, who knows whether Gu Jinfan will think that she took away her opportunity?
Since Gu Jinfan could be hurt by the Fire Lotus, it meant that her realm was most likely lower than hers, or even if it was higher than hers, it was not much higher.

If her realm is much higher than his, no matter how powerful the Burning Silence Divine Ability is, the Fire Lotus will not be able to hurt her.

Hua Changxi felt at ease knowing that the biggest potential enemy couldn't do anything to her. However, when she thought about how Yang Chuan almost gave her away, her mood became gloomy again.

Gu Jinfan has the support of the Duke of Xin's Mansion, and he is also the apprentice of the most powerful pharmacist in the Medical Bureau. He has both power and connections.

If she came to cause trouble for herself, she would forget about concentrating on her cultivation.

Moreover, it is very likely to bring danger to the Hua family.

Thinking of this, Hua Changxi went to the stone cave in the West Mountain with a gloomy face.

In order to obtain the Pomegranate of Fortune, Gu Jinfan held back when he attacked. The four You brothers were not seriously injured and were still able to move freely, but Guo Yu was not so well and had already fallen into a coma.

Seeing Hua Changxi enter the cave, You Lao's expression relaxed and he shouted anxiously: "Changxi, go check on Guo Yu, he is seriously injured."

Hua Changxi stood there motionless, looking at him expressionlessly.

Mr. You was stunned by the look, then he thought of something, moved his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he looked like he didn't know how to start, and his face was full of discomfort.

Hua Changxi looked at Mr. You for a while, then turned his gaze to Zhuo Fan and the other two.

Zhuo Fan, Jiang Ye, and Yang Chuan all avoided her gaze, and Yang Chuan even lowered his head.

The atmosphere in the cave was a bit depressing.

Yang Chuan was the first one who couldn't stand it: "Girl."

"I have a name."

Hua Changxi looked at him indifferently.

Yang Chuan: ".I was wrong just now, but I couldn't do anything about the situation at that time. I can't just watch Zhuo Fan and the others get beaten to death."

Hua Changxi found a seat and sat down, looking at him: "The four seniors have a deep friendship, and you couldn't bear to see your friends get into trouble, so you chose to betray me."

"Senior Yang, have you ever considered my situation? What if I get beaten to death?"

Seeing Yang Chuan pursed his lips and said nothing, and the three You Lao also remained silent, Hua Changxi sneered: "The four seniors are also old hands. I really want to know, when you cooperate with others, do you also betray your partners so straightforwardly when you encounter danger?"

Hearing this, You Lao looked at Hua Changxi with a serious expression: "Changxi, we are not trying to defend ourselves. This is the first time we have encountered a cultivator. We did not even have the slightest power to resist. We were so frightened and panicked that we had no choice but to tell you about your story."

Hearing this, Hua Changxi did not react.

According to her previous personality, after being betrayed, especially involving a matter of life and death, she would definitely not continue to associate with them.

But now, she needs their manpower to help her occupy the Nanshan Fire Spirit Mine, so this time, she has to be careful about what she does.

Hua Changxi looked at the four You Lao and the others and said, "Although I am young and have not traveled the world like the elders, I also know that when doing things for others, one must be trustworthy."

"I have shown my sincerity in order to cooperate with you. Logically speaking, I shouldn't have given you the Fortune Pill so early before we occupied the South Mountain Rift Valley."

"But I gave it to you. Why? Because I believe in the four seniors."

"But, I am a little disappointed by the four seniors."

"Trust is a fragile thing. It needs everyone's joint maintenance. What do you think?"

When the four You elders heard Hua Changxi say this, they looked even more uncomfortable.

Hua Changxi continued: "This matter, just regard it as a trial run in my cooperation with you. This is only the first time, and it will not happen again."

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Only the four seniors and Guo Yu know that I am a cultivator. If it gets out in the future, I will only look for you."

"When I interact with people, I don't care what they say, I only care what they do. I'm not very broad-minded. There's no such thing as making amends later for me. If you cross my bottom line, I will never forgive you."

The sharpness and undisguised threat in his tone frightened the four You elders.

They had never expected that a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old could have such aura.

Thinking of the female cultivator who suddenly came to their door today, who also looked to be in her teens, the four old men of You felt very uneasy.

As masters, they have witnessed the ups and downs in the court, as well as the replacement of the old and the old in the martial arts world. The four of them vaguely sensed that a new major struggle was about to come.

You Lao exchanged glances with his three friends and said, "Today, that female cultivator came for the pomegranate we gave you. What if another cultivator comes looking for us?"

Hua Changxi: "Where did you find that pomegranate?"

You Lao: "Qingzhou Five Finger Mountain."

Hua Changxi's eyes flickered: "Five Finger Mountain?"

The "Five Fingers Mountain" martial arts secret book that she copied from home was said to have been discovered by a master who passed by a mountain shaped like five fingers and gained insights from observing the mountain's terrain.

She had thought the story was made up before, but she didn't expect there really was a Five Finger Mountain.

The master looked at the mountain and realized a set of martial arts and fighting techniques; the four You brothers also found the pomegranate of creation in the mountain.

This Five Finger Mountain doesn’t seem simple!

Hua Changxi looked at You Lao and the other three and asked, "Is there anything special about the Five Finger Mountain?"

Jiang Ye was the most well-informed of the four people. He said, "That mountain is extremely strange. You can't go deep into it. I heard from the people around that no one who entered the mountain could come out alive."

"Of course, this is an exaggeration by the people."

"In fact, someone went in before and came out alive. But he was a master who stayed in the mountain for ten years."

"Some people say that the master was trapped in the mountains for ten years, while others say that the master went into the mountains to meditate on purpose because he discovered a powerful palm-based martial art in the mountains. It was named Five Finger Mountain."

Hua Changxi listened silently: "Since we can't enter the Five Finger Mountain, how did you get the pomegranate?"

Jiang Ye: "We went into the mountain. Since we know that some masters can come out safely after entering the mountain, there probably won't be any problems if the four of us go in together."

Hua Changxi asked again: "How did you find the pomegranate?"

Jiang Ye shook his head: "No need to look for it, the pomegranates grow at the highest point of Wuzhi Mountain. They are colorful and bright. You can see them as soon as you enter the mountain."

Hua Changxi: "How many people are fighting with you for the pomegranates?"

Jiang Ye: "More than ten forces."

Hua Changxi: "Have you exposed your identity?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ye and the other three looked at each other. You Lao frowned and said, "Logically speaking, we shouldn't have been exposed."

Zhuo Fan nodded: "That pomegranate is not ordinary at first glance. We knew that if we got the fruit, we would be targeted by others. We even disguised ourselves before showing up."

Hua Changxi: "But someone came to your house. Did your identity get discovered by accident?"

The four You brothers looked at each other again, and then shook their heads.

Jiang Ye: "When we were snatching the pomegranate, we didn't even use our best skills. I really can't figure out what went wrong?"

After hearing this, Hua Changxi became thoughtful.

From the first time she met Gu Jinfan, she felt something was strange.

For example, she seemed to have known in advance that the red-robed demon was going to sacrifice young boys and girls, so she disguised herself and sneaked in, with the purpose of going after the red stone.

The four You brothers are veterans and most likely would not reveal their whereabouts, but Gu Jinfan still found out.

Moreover, she found Yang Chuan's reaction very strange. She seemed to think that Yang Chuan should be dead.

Why did Yang Chuan die?
Of course it was because he ate the pomegranate of creation. Without her, he would surely die.

However, Yang Chuan must have eaten the pomegranate seeds after they had snatched the pomegranate and reached a safe place. This should have been more secretive than when You Lao and his men had snatched the pomegranate.

Gu Jinfan shouldn't know this.

This Gu Jinfan has a big secret!

You Lao looked at Hua Changxi worriedly: "The female cultivator who appeared today mentioned Shura Sect. If someone from Shura Sect comes to Medicine Valley..."

Hua Changxi looked at the four people with frowns on their faces and asked: "Are you afraid of Shura Sect?"

Zhuo Fan: "Aren't you from the Medical Department? The Medical Department is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Heaven, and under the Ministry of Heaven there is a Demon Suppression Department. The biggest rival of the Demon Suppression Department is the Shura Sect. Even the imperial court can't deal with the Shura Sect, so how can we not be afraid?"

Hua Changxi was silent for a while. "It has been almost a month since you came back. There should be monks in Shura Sect. If they knew that the pomegranate was in your hands, they would have come to you long ago."

Zhuo Fan disagreed: "Didn't the female cultivator just come here today?"

Hua Changxi looked at him and said, "I've said before that if the pomegranate is not sealed with spiritual power, it will turn into ordinary fruit in a few days. That female cultivator probably doesn't know this."

Zhuo Fan said in a somewhat aggressive tone: "What if the people from Shura Gate don't know either?"

Hua Changxi smiled and said, "Senior Zhuo, do you think I should be responsible for your safety?"

Zhuo Fan choked and was glared at by his three old friends. He turned his head and stopped talking.

You Lao: "Changxi, we are just worried."

Hua Changxi looked at them and said: "If I'm really worried, I'll start practicing right away."

Zhuo Fan spoke again, snorting, "We want to practice right away, but you didn't give us any skills."

Hua Changxi's face suddenly darkened: "Senior Zhuo, don't you understand the relationship between us? I am in a cooperative relationship with you, not your mother."

Being scolded by a little girl like this, Zhuo Fan looked a little embarrassed and wanted to fight back, but was grabbed by Yang Chuan.

"I suddenly feel a little chest tightness, can you accompany me for a walk?"

After saying that, Yang Chuan pulled Zhuo Fan out of the cave without further ado.

As soon as he came out of the cave, Zhuo Fan shook off Yang Chuan: "What's wrong with you?"

Yang Chuan looked helpless. Zhuo Fan's temper was really a headache. He often offended people when he was young. After becoming a master, he was accustomed to everyone's flattery. The slightest disobedience from others would make him angry.

"I should ask you, what's wrong with you?"

"Do you really think that Hua Changxi is an ordinary little girl?"

"The female cultivator who beat us so hard today that we had no chance to defend ourselves was the one who got chased away by her. Don't you know that?"

"She is in Medicine Valley. Even if someone from Shura Sect comes, will she really not care about our lives? What's the point of what you just said?"

Zhuo Fan still listened to the words of his old friends, but he was still a little unconvinced: "That girl wants to rely on us to occupy the Fire Spirit Mine. What's wrong with me complaining? Does she really dare to turn against us?"

"Okay, don't look so bitter and resentful. I won't offend that girl to death. I just want to use the mouth of complaint to see if I can squeeze some benefits out of that girl."

Yang Chuan showed his disapproval: "You should do less of this kind of thing in the future."

Zhuo Fan shook his head: "How many years have you not been in charge of the affairs of the Beggars' Sect? I tell you, when dealing with people, you have to give and take. How can you just follow what others say?"

"I dare say that the value of the pomegranate we gave is definitely beyond our imagination. What's wrong with trying to extort money from that girl?"

Yang Chuan agreed with this, but knowing that he couldn't convince his old friend in a short time, he was too lazy to continue.

In the cave, Hua Changxi went to see the unconscious Guo Yu.

Thinking that he and Guo Yu had been getting along quite well in the past two months, he did not vent his dissatisfaction with the four old You people on him, but helped force out the wood spiritual power that was running rampant in his body.

As for the injuries of the four You brothers, she didn't care.

As long as they take the Creation Pill and create their spiritual veins, they can go to the bottom of the cliff to pick a first-level green fruit to eat, and their injuries will be healed.

For more than a month afterwards, Hua Changxi stayed in the Medicine Valley to practice.

She was still worried whether the Shura Clan would find the Medicine Valley.

She knew that in this time of life and death crisis, the four You brothers would definitely not keep the secret for her.

She wanted to make sure whether Shura Clan knew that the Pomegranate of Creation had been snatched away by the four people including You Lao.

Fortunately, until September, no one from Shura Gate showed up.

In this regard, not only Hua Changxi breathed a sigh of relief, but the four old men of You also put their worries back into their stomachs.

Medical Department, in the leftmost room on the second floor of the drugstore at No. 1, Second Street, Gu Jinfan applied the ointment on his feet and calves with a grim look on his face.

She didn't expect the fire lotus to have such a strong burning effect. A month has passed and her injuries have not yet fully healed.

"Who is the monk hiding in the Three Forks Medicine Valley?"

There was no such person in the previous life!

After You Lin, Jiang Ye, Zhuo Fan and Yang Chuan grabbed the Pomegranate of Fortune, Yang Chuan died after eating the pomegranate seeds and was unable to withstand the spiritual power.

Not long after You Lin, Jiang Ye, and Zhuo Fan returned to Sancha Medicine Valley with the Pomegranate of Creation, the people from Shura Sect followed the scent of the Pomegranate of Creation and found them. They killed the three of them and everyone in the Medicine Valley and took away the Pomegranate of Creation.

Although the people of Shura Sect failed to refine the Creation Pill that could shape spiritual roots in the end, the news of the Creation Pill eventually spread through their mouths, causing many mortals who were unable to practice to have delusions.

Later, we often heard that the Fruit of Good Fortune appeared somewhere, causing all parties to scramble for it, but in the end it was confirmed that it was all fake news.

Creation fruit.
The laws of nature do not allow the existence of this kind of spiritual fruit that defies the heavens.

She was a little puzzled as to why You Lin and the other four were able to snatch the Pomegranate of Creation. Shouldn't the Pomegranate of Creation be destroyed by the thunder as soon as it appeared?

Is the Fruit of Good Fortune that You Lin and his four companions snatched in the hands of that mysterious monk?
Gu Jinfan's face looked a little solemn. People and things appeared that were different from his previous life. He didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Thinking of how the Four Spirit Realms were invaded and occupied by outside cultivators in her previous life, she was looking forward to some changes in the general trend of this life.
