Chapter 402

Yuan Mountain.

Sect Master's residence.

Xiaoju handed intelligence to Lin Shanshan.

After Lin Shanshan read the jade slip in her hand with her spiritual sense, she could not help but say disappointedly: "Young Master Ning Zhuo is still in seclusion and hasn't come out?"

"The eldest brother is really something, he is a drunkard himself, and the first time he met someone, he got them dead drunk."

"I wonder, did Young Master Ning Zhuo drink too fiercely and is still in seclusion to ease the wine?"

Spirit wine is different from ordinary wine.

Even for cultivators, drinking too much spirit wine can cause the wine to not go down, lasting for months, or even years.

Xiaoju said: "Miss, you weren't there at the time and didn't see that scene with your own eyes."

"I actually think Young Master Ning Zhuo himself also likes to drink."

Lin Shanshan suddenly became a bit annoyed, holding her chin and daydreaming: "Oh my, why was I grounded? I don't know what Young Master Ning Zhuo looked like when he was drunk."

"Xiaoju!"

"Speaking of which, I should criticize you, why didn't you use a jade slip to record the situation that day?"

Xiaoju said aggrievedly: "Miss, please don't criticize me for this matter. I already know I was wrong!"

"These days, you have criticized me no less than a hundred times."

"Not to mention that recording other people's situation without permission is a very offensive thing. I am just a servant, a maid, how can I capture the image of the eldest brother?"

"Just say that day, even if I wanted to have this crooked thought, would I have been directly seen through by the eldest brother or Young Master Ning Zhuo?"

"By then, if I were kicked out, wouldn't the eldest brother and Young Master Ning Zhuo have no one to take care of them?"

Lin Shanshan said angrily: "Fine, fine, fine, consider my criticism wrong, you took care of both of them, consider it your merit, okay?"

Xiaoju stepped forward and took Lin Shanshan's arm: "Miss, it cannot be considered my merit. Clearly, you ordered me to help, right? This is all your merit!"

Lin Shanshan then showed a smile: "That's more like it."

As the two were talking, a servant brought a letter to report.

It was a letter from Ning Jiufan.

Xiaoju reacted a beat slower and felt strange: "Why would the Ning family Jin Dan ancestor send a letter to you, Miss?"

Lin Shanshan's eyes suddenly brightened: "Xiaoju, didn't you hear Young Master Ning Zhuo say last time that he and Ning Jiufan have a close relationship? This must be Young Master Ning Zhuo's letter, just passed through Ning Jiufan."

"I was grounded by my father and watched by many senior brothers, who wouldn't let me contact Young Master Ning Zhuo or his letters."

"But the senior brothers wouldn't dare to intercept the letter from Ancestor Ning Jiufan."

"Hahaha, thanks to Young Master Ning Zhuo for coming up with this wonderful method!"

Lin Shanshan took the letter, unfolded it, and looked at it, first happy and then worried.

"Ah, Young Master Ning Zhuo's spirit plant has a problem. If it cannot be rescued, it will definitely die."

"What should be done about this?"

Xiaoju also became worried.

Although she had only met Ning Zhuo twice, she also felt good about him.

Xiaoju was more worried about Lin Shanshan: "Miss, you are grounded now, how can you help Young Master Ning Zhuo?"

Lin Shanshan looked at the letter: "Young Master Ning Zhuo also said in the letter that he wants to ask the eldest brother for help. Having the eldest brother take action is much more helpful than me."

Xiaoju then breathed a sigh of relief.

Almost at the same time, Ning Zhuo came to the Myriad Demon Cave again.

"Brother Linghu!" He carried cloud tea and was warmly welcomed by Linghu Jiu.

"Haha, Brother Ning Zhuo, please come in." Linghu Jiu walked quickly out of the cave, held Ning Zhuo's arm, and welcomed him in.

Ning Zhuo presented the special cloud tea, saying that this tea can help one comprehend the principles in the clouds.

Linghu Jiu directly accepted it: "Good tea, good tea, even if I don't drink it, I will distribute it to my junior sisters and brothers."

Ning Zhuo: "Brother Linghu, don't worry, since the last drink together, I have no resentment or knots with the fellow disciples of your sect like Lao De."

Linghu Jiu laughed loudly and invited Ning Zhuo to sit down: "Speaking of which, these past few days I have been drinking alone, and it has been tasteless. Brother Ning Zhuo is here today, let's drink until we are drunk!"

Ning Zhuo was happy at first, then smiled bitterly, and stated his difficulties.

Linghu Jiu did not hesitate, took out his identity token, and handed it to Ning Zhuo: "You can spend as much as you want on the sect merits here!"

"If it's not enough, you can tell me, I can still manage to raise sect merits among my junior brothers and sisters with this thin face."

Ning Zhuo just cupped his hands and thanked him casually.

This attitude made Linghu Jiu very happy: "Wonderful, Brother Ning Zhuo should be this casual. We are drinking buddies, we are our own people!"

"It's just, your spirit plant is so critically ill, can you do it by treating it yourself?"

"There are many cultivators in my sect who are well-versed in spirit plants, and my master is the number one person in the sect. If it is feasible, I advise you to try your best to invite a master to treat it."

"When a spirit plant is critically ill, many daily cultivation and maintenance methods have little effect, and may even have the opposite effect."

Ning Zhuo nodded and kept this suggestion in mind.

Before leaving, he told Linghu Jiu about receiving the teachings of the Five Elements Divine Lord again after returning to the cave dwelling on Small Struggle Peak.

"At that time, I hadn't drunk Nether-Thought Brew, so how did I get the Divine Lord's teaching again?" Ning Zhuo expressed his confusion.

Linghu Jiu was also quite confused: "This situation is indeed strange, I have never encountered it either."

"Perhaps you still have the wine intent remaining in your body, so you can communicate with the sages in the underworld?"

"After all... I have indeed never seen anyone drink so much Nether-Thought Brew at once."

Ning Zhuo smiled bitterly and hurriedly waved his hand: "Let Brother Linghu laugh, drinking so fiercely is the first time in my life."

"I dare to ask, Brother, can the wine recipe for this Nether-Thought Brew be sold to me?"

Linghu Jiu frowned: "If it were my thing, why would I need to sell it, I would just give it to my brother. The problem is, this wine recipe was specially sought by my master."

"For this, my master also paid a huge amount of wealth to that Black and White Wine Immortal."

"Brother, if you are interested in the wine recipe, you can use the Ning family Jin Dan ancestor to negotiate this deal into the cooperation between our two sides."

Ning Zhuo nodded and sighed: "I'm afraid Sect Master Lin Bufan will not allow it."

Linghu Jiu said "Ah": "I actually think this move is feasible. After all, in this sect, Nether-Thought Brew is only suitable for me to use, others have tried it, and the harvest is meager, equivalent to none."

"Brother, you are special, so the value of this wine is huge to you."

"If it really doesn't work..."

"Hey, you can get wine from me."

"My master gives me a few jars of Nether-Thought Brew regularly, don't leave yet, I will give you half a jar now."

Linghu Jiu only had one jar of Nether-Thought Brew left, and he insisted on giving half of it to Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo was quite moved, thanked him again, and reluctantly said goodbye to Linghu Jiu.

He got Linghu Jiu's token and moved freely on Yuan Mountain. He first went to the library building and read many books, but did not find a definite method.

Although he collected many rescue methods for spirit plants, he did not dare to use them indiscriminately.

Regarding the cultivation and treatment of the Spirit-Hiding Willow, it was indeed recorded in some books and secret codes. But the situation in the book and the situation in front of Ning Zhuo were different.

Ning Zhuo could not prescribe the right medicine for the illness himself, so he had to ask several famous spirit plant masters in the Myriad Medicine Sect.

These spirit plant masters listened to Ning Zhuo's questions and shook their heads, saying that they must first determine what the spirit plant is before they can prescribe the right medicine.

Ning Zhuo thought for a while, went all out, directly set up a case, and arranged the Spirit-Hiding Willow in it.

As a result, the spirit plant masters all indicated that even for the same disease, the severity is different, and the treatment method is also different, requiring specific research and judgment.

After Ning Zhuo hit a wall, he found Ning Jiufan.

"Ancestor, come, come quickly, I will show you a good thing!" Ning Zhuo greeted Ning Jiufan.

Ning Jiufan became vigilant: "You brat, what kind of monster are you making, what kind of trap are you setting again?"

"This is a treasure, you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don't look." Saying this, Ning Zhuo untied the mechanical dragon wrapped around his waist.

"Myriad Mile Wandering Dragon? No wonder you brat run so fast!" Ning Jiufan's eyes lit up.

Ning Zhuo said disdainfully: "A mere Myriad Mile Wandering Dragon, compared to the heavy treasure I am about to show, is not worth mentioning!"

This further stimulated Ning Jiufan's curiosity.

Immediately, Ning Zhuo led Ning Jiufan and drilled into the Myriad Mile Wandering Dragon.

Not long after.

Inside the spirit plant cabin.

"This, this, this! If I am not mistaken, this should be the Spirit-Hiding Willow!"

"A Spirit-Hiding Willow with Jin Dan aura, amazing, amazing, even I can be helped by it."

"It's just... why are its vitality and aura so weak?"

Ning Zhuo pointed at the Spirit-Hiding Willow: "Ancestor, your pattern is too small."

"How can you only care about yourself!"

"This is a treasure of inheritance. In the future, when it is taken back to the family, the whole clan can benefit."

"Our Ning family will develop and grow!"

Ning Jiufan was so angry that he laughed: "You said it well, my pattern is not as big as yours. In that case, you brat want to release it and let the whole clan use it? Including the main branch?"

Ning Zhuo smiled: "That may not be impossible!"

Ning Jiufan was suddenly surprised.

Ning Zhuo added: "As long as the ancestor takes action to save this Spirit-Hiding Willow!"

Ning Jiufan was shocked: "What, it's dying?"

Ning Zhuo spread his hands: "With this aura and state, it was already me using all my strength and spending huge wealth to barely hang it."

"Ancestor, whether our Ning family can have another treasure of inheritance depends on you!"

Ning Jiufan touched his forehead, felt great pressure, and could not help but laugh and scold: "You brat, so you were waiting for your ancestor here."
