Stars fall and locust trees grow

Chapter 122 Do you think I need those things? !

Except for Gu Huaiyi who was already used to it, the others were almost shocked by Ming Yuejian's generosity. They all had envious looks on their faces, and even Maoqiu was stimulated by the dazzling thing and ran away.

After introducing Guchuan Lian’s golden painted barrel, the next ones were those of the other six elders.

Zeng Muchan arranged those things on the small table one by one.

"This is a bottle of cream given by the Great Elder. It is transparent, moisturizing and delicate. It can remove scars on the body and can be used both internally and externally."

"This pile contains the writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone sent by the Second Elder, as well as the copybook of the sect's rules. He specifically emphasized that you should practice your dog-crawling handwriting in your spare time, and recite the sect's rules by the way, so as not to embarrass our young master."

"This box contains some commonly used talismans, of different grades, all given to you by the Third Elder. All the talismans have been sorted and placed in different categories, and are also marked with the grade, name and effect for easy identification."

After saying this, he was about to close the box containing the talismans when a slender white hand secretly reached out and picked up one of the stacks of talismans.

Fortunately, Li Chi was sharp-eyed and noticed the clue in time, and slapped him directly.

"Oh my! Why are you so fierce, little boy?!"

Hu Di did not feel the slightest bit of shame for being caught, he rubbed the back of his hand and said: "I just wanted to take a closer look!"

Li Chi rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't trust you."

The gift from the Fourth Elder was a pot of a peculiarly shaped plant called "Sunfirefly God". When exposed to sunlight, the "Sunfirefly God" would emit a clear and elegant fragrance, which would help practitioners to concentrate their minds and strengthen their souls.

As the Fifth Elder was an alchemist, naturally all the elixirs he sent were nourishing ones, and most of them were of top grade or the best quality, with the names of the elixirs also labeled on the body of each jade bottle.

The Sixth Elder gave me a set of very exquisite body armor. Although it was body armor, it looked almost the same as ordinary clothes, except that it felt unusually soft to the touch, unlike ordinary fabrics.

After collecting all the gifts from the elders, Zeng Muchan took out the things he had prepared.

Li Chi took a closer look and found that it was a small turtle carved from jade, the size of a fist. The turtle's eyes were half-closed, and it looked lazy.

Hu Di's gift was wrapped tightly in three layers.

He pressed the thing under the box containing the gold painting bucket and said mysteriously, "This gift of mine is not suitable for public viewing, so you should wait until everyone has left before you can view it with your little master."

Li Chi had no idea what he was up to, so he just curled his lips and temporarily piled all the gifts on the small table.

After the gift presentation, several people gathered around the table in the middle of the room, drinking tea and chatting.

No one knew who suddenly brought up the matter of the competition among the various sects, but Li Chi was very interested in it, so he listened to Hu Di's explanation.

"Although the competition among the various sects is scheduled for two years from now, there are still many things that need to be discussed by the alliance in advance."

"After the Alliance Conference determines the specific time, process, and entry standards for the competition, each sect will begin selecting internal disciples."

"The number of places for the competition varies for sects of different levels, but we still have to wait for the final result of the alliance for details."

"So what are the rewards for this competition?!" Li Chi asked casually.

"It's just the same few things." Hu Di counted on his fingers, "Either they go treasure hunting in the secret realm of the alliance, or they reward some high-quality or top-quality magic tools, elixirs or talismans, or they are scrolls of treasured mental skills, secret skills, elixir recipes, formations, etc."

Zeng Muhan thought that Li Chi was very interested in the competition, and said with a smile: "The sect's preliminary examination will not begin until a year later. I think that with Junior Brother's talent, he still has a great chance."

"No, no, no! I don't want to participate in any competitions."

Li Chi propped up his chin and said, "Whenever I think of the secret realm, my mind is filled with dust. As for those magic weapons, elixirs and so on..."

He pointed at the small table that was filled with things and said, "Do you think I need those things?!"

Hu Di was choked by him and silently gave a thumbs up.

Hu Di and several people on Xianglin Island are so familiar with Li Chi that they chatter non-stop when they get together.

Ruan Nanzhi and Ye Jingxi haven't spoken to each other since they presented the gifts, and both looked troubled.

Li Chi knew that the two of them were still blaming themselves for what happened in the dense forest of West Mountain, so he suggested taking them for a tour around Lunyin Island.

Ruan Nanzhi is a thoughtful girl and said that she wanted to take a look at Wei Li first.

So Li Chi took them to sit in front of Qi Luoxing's grave for a while.

Seeing that the two men were crying more sadly than each other, he had no choice but to comfort them one by one, and then dragged them to the bamboo forest.

The blood python still maintained its usual lying posture, without even raising its head.

As for the panda, although it is a little bigger in size, it is covered with fur, and the way it chews bamboo is so cute that it will melt your heart.

Ruan Nanzhi stared in amazement and felt that the two huge monsters in front of him did not look as scary as he had imagined.

"This one is called Fatty Head, and the other one is called Little Bald Head. I brought them back from the secret realm." Li Chi introduced them one by one.

"Although they both look a bit unintelligent, in fact, their current realm is comparable to that of our sect master and elders."

"Really?!" Ruan Nanzhi said, "Then if you carry them with you in the future, Junior Brother Li, won't you be in no danger?!"

"People always have to learn to grow up on their own. I can't always rely on these two."

"Junior Brother Li." Ruan Nanzhi suddenly lowered his head, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

The girl's voice was filled with deep sorrow and self-blame, tears falling from her eyes bit by bit, "It's because we two are so useless that Brother Wei and you are in trouble..."

"How can this be your two fault?!" Li Chi hurriedly stretched out his sleeves to wipe her face.

"If you hadn't returned to the sect in time to report the news, I might have been lying down there with Wei Li."

After saying that, he gently pressed Ruan Nanzhi's shoulder, looked at her tear-stained face, and said with a smile: "Besides, you don't have to keep this in mind, because no matter who went to Xishan with me that day, I would have saved him the first time."
