From the first day of the new year to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Chen spent time at Xu's house.

His "Suyin Zhenzhen Harmony Secret Method" has been cultivated to the proficient level, and he brought Xu Xinlan into the door.

For half a month, Wang Chen's life can be said to be envious of mandarin ducks but not immortals.

His practice did not drop because of this, because Xu Xinlan gave him all the essence of the five elements in the Xu family's secret collection.

Enough for Wang Chen to break through the third floor of the Purple Mansion!

In the past half month, Wang Chen also enjoyed Xu Xinlan's tenderness, caring, and wrapping around.

If it were someone with a weaker will, I'm afraid they would really be addicted to it, and their fighting spirit and desire for the Tao would be drained away.

But Wang Chen kept his heart.

Because he has always been very clear about where his own way lies!

The day after spending the Lantern Festival with Xu Xinlan, Wang Chen and Zhong Bo rushed to Xu's mine together.

The Xu family had two mines in total, both of which were in the deep mountains five hundred miles away from Wanling City. The two of them took a flying boat together and arrived at their destination in only half an hour.

The mine that secretly produces the essence of the five elements is not large, with only a hundred miners plus a dozen supervisors and stewards.

Uncle Zhong landed directly in the mine in his flying boat.

He usually comes here for inspection every now and then, and he knows the situation here like the back of his hand. First, he introduced Wang Chen to the manager of the mine and the related situation.

On the bright side, this small mine mainly produces black iron stone and a small amount of associated black iron.

After the two kinds of ores are smelted, they are sent to the workshop in Wanling City to make daily necessities, weapons and armor, etc.

Due to the mediocre quality of the ore, the Xu family did not have much heritage in forging weapons, so the profit was quite meager.

As far as this mine is concerned, it is difficult to arouse the coveted eyes of others.

But except for a few people, no one knows that there is actually the essence of the five elements hidden in such an unremarkable mine!

Uncle Zhong also told the steward and supervisors about Wang Chen's identity.

After receiving a wave of sincere respect, Wang Chen and Uncle Zhong left the mine.

However, the two did not go far at all, and turned back after flying dozens of miles away.

This time Uncle Zhong landed in a deserted mountain forest, walked for more than ten miles, and finally sneaked into a secret cave, deep underground.

After walking through the long secret passage for half a stick of incense, the front is suddenly bright.

An underground cave loomed in front of the two of them.

The moment he stepped into the cave, Wang Chen felt the essence of the five elements filling the surrounding space!

To him, this place is no less than a cave for cultivators in Zifu.

A huge stalactite column hangs from the ceiling of the cave, the tip of the column is only three feet above the ground, and a round basin carved from jade is placed below it.

There is a thin layer of liquid in the jade basin.

Wang Chen could tell at a glance that this layer of liquid was the essence of the five elements!

"I come to collect once a month."

Uncle Zhong said with a sigh: "It's like being a thief, sneaking around and not daring to meet people."

The discovery of this underground cave was purely accidental. At that time, a monster sneaked into the mine and injured the miners. The supervisors and stewards of the mine could not solve the problem, so they reported to the Xu family for help.

After Uncle Zhong rushed over, he went deep into the mine to kill the monsters. As a result, the mine tunnel was collapsed during the fierce battle, and the cave was exposed.

He found the essence of the five elements in it.

Uncle Zhong knew the value of the essence of the five elements. After he got out of trouble, he announced that the monsters had been wiped out, and then he ordered the mine to be completely closed.

He quietly dug another secret passage leading directly to the cave.

This cave can produce at least one catty of the essence of the five elements every month. Although the grade is not high, the value is also very amazing.

After discussing with Xu Xinlan, he took out about three taels to recruit the monks from the Zifu to protect the Xu family.

Save everything else, not daring to divulge half of it.

As for the origin of the essence of the five elements, it is only said that it was purchased in a foreign domain.

Such a cover-up is also trembling!

Wang Chen understood: "Every man is innocent, but he is guilty."

Uncle Zhong looked at Wang Chen with complicated eyes: "Master, I will leave this place to you from now on."

The relationship between Xu Xinlan and Wang Chen can be hidden from others, but not from him, the old housekeeper of the Xu family.

As Xu Xinlan said, Uncle Zhong has always regarded her as his daughter.

Now that he followed Wang Chen without a name or distinction, and even posted treasures upside down, how could he not have the slightest idea in his heart?

But Uncle Zhong knew very well that this was Xu Xinlan's best choice.

His deadline is coming soon, and he can't protect Xu Xinlan for several years.

"I only hope that the Venerable Master can treat Miss well."

Uncle Zhong said these two sentences very humblely, because he didn't have any confidence to make Wang Chen afraid.

"Do not worry."

Wang Chen nodded and said, "I will take responsibility."

"Thank you, Master."

Uncle Zhong took a step back and saluted Wang Chen respectfully.

Wang Chen looked at the loyal old butler, and suddenly asked: "Uncle Zhong, how many times have you failed to break through?"

Zhong Bo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "Once."

Wang Chen was thoughtful: "Then there is one more chance."

It is perfectly normal for monks who have completed Qi training to break through their brains and open their homes. Failure is a very normal thing, and ninety-nine out of ten people fail.

After some monks fail to break through, they will continue to work hard and try to break through again.

Under normal circumstances, it is more difficult to break through the second time than the first time, and there are even fewer people who can succeed.

And unless you are very talented, or use a panacea, after two failures, basically there will be no third time.

Most of the monks will try again if they fail once if their original source is not damaged.

After two failed attempts, I completely gave up.

Uncle Zhong smiled wryly, "My first failure hurt Yuan Yuan, and when I make up for it, I will be old."

The older the monk, the lower the probability of success in opening the house.

The more dangerous it is!

Wang Chen's eyes flashed, and he asked: "If I give you a high-grade Poor Aperture Pill, would you like to try again?"

"ah?"

Uncle Zhong was stunned, his head was buzzing.

He gave up the idea of ​​opening a house a long time ago, thinking that it would be good to spend the rest of his life in peace.

When I am old, I have no idea.

But now that Wang Chen said this, Uncle Zhong suddenly discovered that in the deepest part of his heart, there was still a hidden desire.

Once the opening of the mansion is successful, the life expectancy will be doubled immediately.

If you can not die, who is willing to wait for death?

He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't speak at all.

Wang Chen smiled and said: "Uncle Zhong, you don't need to tell me the answer now, think about it after you go back, as long as you are willing, I will exchange it for you with a high-grade Poqiao Pill!"

The top-grade Poor Aperture Pill can be exchanged for Xun Points.

Wang Chen happened to have this award!

But the premise is that Zhongbo has the courage and fighting spirit to break through and die.

Otherwise it is useless!

——

The second one is delivered.
