But... isn't it true that wealth and honor are achieved through risk?

"Senior, let's put it this way," Jiang Ke'er bowed her head respectfully and smiled, "I'll come here every day to cook for you, but if we don't build a solid relationship between us, you will definitely not let me leave at ease."

"That's right." The casino owner narrowed her eyes, leaned on the bed, crossed her legs and looked at Jiang Ke'er, "So?"

"So, after cooking every time, you need to give me a reward... As long as the reward you give is attractive enough, how could a humble monk like me betray you?" Jiang Ke'er looked at the other party sincerely.

"...Don't try that on me! Do you think I'm stupid?" Unexpectedly, the casino owner's wife got furious. "A guy did this before! He took a bunch of worthless lottery tickets and almost cheated me out of my pants! I will never be fooled again! Do you really think I'm a fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will?"

Jiang Ke'er's heart skipped a beat and she secretly cursed which bastard was one step ahead of her.

But this gave her more confidence.

Since there is a successful precedent, there will be no problem for me!

She thought of a solution quickly, rolled her eyes, and said, "The two are different in nature. First of all, I have no ill intentions, and it is not me who took the initiative to find you... It was you who needed a cook to help, and took the initiative to find me, right?"

The casino owner was stunned, and said while stroking her chin, "That's indeed the truth."

"Besides, this is just a legitimate transaction, with both sides taking and asking for something, and it's mutually beneficial," Jiang Ke'er said with a smile, "I'll help you cook, and you'll pay a small reward to ensure my loyalty, which is just the same as hiring a cook... Is there any trap here?"

"Hmm..." The casino owner fell into deep thought.

There is indeed nothing wrong with it.

It seems that I am too sensitive.

"Of course, if you are short of money now, you can buy on credit or provide me with some secret clues," Jiang Ke'er said patiently, "In this way, you can enjoy the wonderful food right away, right?"

"That's not necessary," the casino owner's wife inadvertently stroked the Qiankun bag around her waist.

It seems that he took all the valuables with him.

Did he really escape here to avoid gambling debts?

"What would you like to eat today, senior?" Jiang Ke'er went straight to the point.

She didn't discuss compensation first.

She would say: Just give it as you see fit.

Well, just give it as you see fit.

"I'm sick of fish, please cook some meat." said the casino owner.

"no problem."

It just so happened that Jiang Keer had some beef ingredients and vegetable seasonings in her inventory.

She cleaned the beef in no time, then set up a small copper pot, sliced ​​the beef, and arranged the vegetables on a plate.

The pot is divided into yin and yang. Put the frozen Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup from a few days ago into the yang pot to thaw it, and put the red spicy butter into the yin pot to stir-fry until fragrant.

Then he went outside the cave, fetched a pot of clear spring water, boiled it, and poured it into the pot.

The charcoal fire crackled, and a fragrant white mist gradually floated out of the hot pot.

For a person who is hungry and wants to eat meat, a beef hotpot will bring her great satisfaction like the sublimation of the soul!

The casino owner's eyes widened as she stared, her saliva slobbering non-stop until Jiang Ke'er filled a delicate white porcelain bowl with the seasoning and placed it in front of her.

"Please take your time. Be careful because it will burn your mouth."

The casino proprietress suddenly lost her image, not looking like an ethereal immortal at all. She rushed to the table like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food, her chopsticks flying so hard that afterimages were left!

Serve the food and eat. Serve the food and eat.

"Is there more? Is there more?"

Two hours later, the casino owner's hair was disheveled and she stared at Jiang Ke'er with red eyes: "Meat! I want more!"

"...You've already eaten three cows," Jiang Ke'er held her forehead, "That's all. How can I fit so much into my Qiankun bag?"

"What a pity!" The casino owner cried out in grief, suddenly picked up the copper pot, and raised her head -

Tons tons tons——

She swallowed all the boiling red and white soups in the pot. After drinking it, she sipped her lips as if she was not satisfied.

"You're quite good," the casino boss lady burped and said while lying on the ground with her arms and legs spread. "Hotpot is originally very hard to taste different. The difference is all in the soup base and the seasoning. But your soup base is obviously made with a lot of effort. I can't say how it's great, but it's ten thousand times better than other places!"

"Senior, that's a big reward."

“Don’t call me senior, you’re already calling me old,” the woman puffed out her lips. “My name is Luya, from now on you can just call me Sister Luya, or you can call me Boss…”

"Okay, boss!" Jiang Ke'er called obediently.

"Well," Luya nodded with satisfaction, "In exchange, the money for this meal, let me think about it..."

Lu Ya lowered her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly slapped her thigh and said in an instant: "You are a disciple of Lingyin Valley, so you should be learning medicine now, right? In this case, I will teach you a different kind of medical skill..."

(2/2)

7. Pot

Different medical techniques?

Jiang Keer believed that the things the immortal took out must be extraordinary.

"The medical skills of your Lingyin Valley are based on medicines, supplemented by exercises. They are suitable for treatment and conditioning after battle." Luya said proudly.

"Indeed," Jiang Ke'er nodded in agreement. She had just attended a day of classes, and what she learned from the Lingyin Valley courses was just as Luya said - it was more like post-war treatment, with a longer treatment cycle, but it could completely eradicate stubborn diseases and serious injuries without leaving any hidden dangers.

"Although this medical skill has many advantages, its disadvantages are also obvious - the first aid ability is weak and it is very dependent on elixirs." As Luya spoke, a ball of warm white light floated in the palm of her hand.

She brought the white light close to the vines on the wall, and the broken and withered parts of the vines began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This is a technique of mine that can transform spiritual energy into life force. Although the efficiency is not high, it can make up for the shortcomings of the general emergency rescue ability of medical practitioners... From today on, I will teach you this technique to help you master the spiritual energy transformation of life force."

Jiang Keer's eyes lit up - isn't this just like the priest's Holy Light spell, a skill that can play a big role on the battlefield!

"But," Luya grinned, leaning against the bed nonchalantly, and said, "I didn't eat enough today, so I can only let you demonstrate the property change once, just this time... If you still want to continue learning, bring more meat to cook for me tomorrow."

"..."

Damn it, I was tricked.

"Okay," Jiang Ke'er nodded helplessly, and the light of the Dharma image behind her dimmed quietly. However, Luya had her back to Jiang Ke'er and was closing her eyes, immersed in her imagination of a beautiful future, so she didn't see it.

Jiang Ke'er felt fortunate in her heart - fortunately she had summoned the Dharmakāya in time and remembered the feeling of that light in her heart, so she did not return empty-handed.

When she turned her hand, a faint white light flashed on her fingertips and she smiled slightly.

Luya was still immersed in fantasy and the long-lost happiness of being full. She waved her hand impatiently: "See her off, He Lao San, send her back! See you tomorrow at the same time!"

"Goodbye, senior," Jiang Ke'er bowed respectfully to Luya.

"Hehe, there are still many opportunities to see each other again, no need to be so polite," Lu Ya gnawed her teeth proudly, recalling the taste of the hot pot just now, "I have so much stock on hand that I can buy you a lifetime!"

Jiang Ke'er smiled without saying a word and rode on the back of the white crane.

The white crane flapped its wings and once again carried Jiang Ke'er into the clouds.

Feeling the wind whistling in her ears, Jiang Keer felt relaxed.

After returning to her little bamboo house, Jiang Ke'er politely thanked the crane, then quickly locked the doors and windows and began to study the white light.

At first, it could only jump at the fingertips, the energy was not stable, and the output frequency was intermittent and very weak.

About an hour later, she was able to stabilize the frequency of her spiritual power output. Although the light in her hands was weak, it already had a certain healing effect.

But this does consume a lot of spiritual energy.

Jiang Ke'er meditated to restore most of the spiritual power in her body, and then continued to simulate the changes in the nature of that life force.

This time, she began to try to expand the energy output.

A milky white ball of light appeared in the palm of his hand, and the light became brighter and brighter.

"Yeah!"

As soon as the energy output was not restrained, the light exploded.

All I could hear was a creaking sound throughout the house, and the whole house was instantly filled with the fragrance of green bamboo.

Tender bamboo shoots and thin branches protruded from the walls. Jiang Ke'er was amused to see that her entire room was filled with leaves.

There was no choice but to stop her research and draw her sword to cut off the branches.

After chopping the wood and continuing her research, she began to consciously gather this life force within a controllable range.

Early the next morning, when the cranes were calling, Jiang Ke'er hurriedly cut off the branches inside and outside the room, changed into a new set of disciple clothes, and rushed to the top of the mountain for morning lessons.

A night of research was very fruitful. Although it cannot be as refined and casual as in Luya's hands, it can already be used in actual combat.

The sense of accomplishment from acquiring new skills made Jiang Keer full of energy.

"Qingyi, come here to Master." Master Yiqin smiled and called Jiang Keer to her side, reaching out to gently rub Jiang Keer's head.

Jiang Ke'er always felt that something was wrong with Master Yiqin today, and she instinctively developed a sense of crisis.

"Qingyi, your flute may take two days to arrive. Qingjin Peak recently received a batch of high-quality black jade. They plan to use this batch of black jade to make a rare, high-quality black jade flute for you... Good things take time, so just be patient and wait." Yiqin said softly.

"Okay, Master." Jiang Ke'er was still well-behaved.

"By the way, Qingyi," Yiqin paused and continued, "You should also know about the burning of the Yangxin class classroom, right?"

Jiang Ke'er's expression remained unchanged: "I know. A senior sister came to inform me last night."

Master Yiqin's smile suddenly became even warmer: "But do you know that we have a crystal that can record images in our valley?"

"Disciple, I don't know." Jiang Ke'er shook her head innocently.

No, actually she knew.

Since they were going to set fire to the house, how could they not use identification techniques to explore the way and prevent first-hand surveillance?

Master Yiqin's voice suddenly turned cold: "The crystal image showed you and Mu Shuang sneaking to the back of the Yangxin classroom... Can you explain what happened there?"

Jiang Ke'er was slightly startled, revealing a conflicted and embarrassed expression.

Mu Shuang had already been standing nearby, and was obviously called by Master Yiqin. When she heard what Master Yiqin said, she gritted her teeth, stood in front of Jiang Keer, and shouted, "That's right! I did it all!"

"Hmm?" Master Yiqin stared at Mu Shuang's face expressionlessly.

Mu Shuang was so frightened that her legs were shaking, but she said stubbornly: "It's all my fault. I forced Junior Sister to go with me. It has nothing to do with Junior Sister!"

After saying this, she straightened her chest, and a great sense of mission to sacrifice bravely arose in her heart.

She secretly exchanged a glance with Jiang Ke'er, with pride in her eyes, as if to say, "Junior sister, look at how loyal I am!"

Jiang Ke'er sighed helplessly and said, "Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to tell the truth."

Mu Shuang suddenly became anxious, and winked at Jiang Ke'er repeatedly - Junior Sister, don't do that! Master, just punish me. If you do this, I will sacrifice myself in vain!

"That's right, it was all done by Senior Sister Mu Shuang," Jiang Ke'er pointed at Mu Shuang indignantly.

Mu Shuang was stunned and immediately burst into tears.

Jiang Keer puffed up her lips and continued, "Senior Sister Mu Shuang said that the back of the Yangxin classroom is very quiet and well ventilated, and it can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon at the same time. It is located at the junction of the sun and the moon, which is very suitable for experimenting with refining new pills... So we ran over with the materials, wanting to try a new pill recipe, but accidentally knocked over the fire and set the Yangxin classroom on fire."

8. Mad Dragon Hall

Did you accidentally burn down the Heart Nourishing Classroom in order to make the elixir?

Master Yiqin narrowed her eyes and said, "I want to hear what kind of elixir uses the essence of the sun and the moon? Why do we have to go to the back of the Yangxin Palace?"

Mu Shuang was naturally stumped by the question - how could she know what kind of pill it was! She and Jiang Ke'er went to burn the classroom just because they didn't want to attend the Yangxin class...

"My disciple calls it the Yuan Zhuan Pill," Jiang Ke'er answered without waiting for Mu Shuang to respond.

"Oh?" Master Yiqin raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect Jiang Ke'er to be able to answer it. "Tell me in detail."

Jiang Ke'er nodded and said frankly: "I realized in my practice that everything in this world is composed of two basic attributes, yin and yang, and yin and yang can transform into each other... just like the alternation and integration of the sun and the moon."

"so what?"

"So, I'm wondering if I can use this principle to refine a pill that can transform the nature of the spiritual power in a cultivator's body." Jiang Ke'er spoke eloquently with clear ideas.

Master Yiqin suddenly became serious. She put down the peach wood stick in her hand and looked at Jiang Keer seriously: "Go on."
