Chapter 192: Refining Pavilion
"It's ridiculous to say, now in the Heavenly Gong Sect, if you talk about the profundity of alchemy, you can only be regarded as Uncle Qin Feng in the house, even if it is the sect master, even if the cultivation is much more advanced, it is just to use the stone house on the lower floor to exercise some rough blanks, and the specific and delicate work has to be handed over to Uncle Qin Feng!"
……
"Boy, even if you pat Lao Tzu's ass, but you can stir up Lao Tzu's idea, if you can't give a reason, Lao Tzu won't let you go!"
With an angry roar, the door of the stone house was pushed open, and a man who looked to be in his mid-thirties stepped out.
Although the words of the person who came were rough, his appearance was very delicate, with fair skin and a slender figure. If you shave the messy beard on your chin, and then clean your hair, which is as fluffy as a chicken nest, change into a neat new dress, and add a gold-painted paper fan in your hand......
Well, the sloppy-looking man in front of him is actually a long way from the image of a beautiful son.
Song Yongping saw Qin Feng's glare, and hurriedly shouted: "Uncle don't worry, I also sent an assistant to Uncle Shi on the order of the sect master!"
"Assistant?" Qin Feng then turned his gaze to Xu Chen, who had a restrained expression on the side, and after just one glance, he frowned and said, "How is it a mortal?
"How could it be?" Song Yongping smiled flatteringly, and continued: "Don't look at Senior Brother Zhao's ability to cultivate, but Senior Brother Zhao's strength is great! He is from Biancheng, and you also know the city guards in Biancheng! Even if he can't practice, his strength is not bad compared to us foundation building period monks!"
"Oh, from Biancheng?" Qin Feng nodded slightly, and said, "Who picked the person this time?"
Due to Biancheng's obstruction, in recent years, the major forces have often looked away and picked a few mortals who do not have spiritual roots. Tiangongzong is no exception, at this moment, when Qin Feng saw Xu Chen, he preconceived and said.
Song Yongping hurriedly smiled and said: "It's not all, although Senior Brother Zhao can't practice, but Senior Brother Zhao's sister has a thunder attribute spirit root, and now she has been personally accepted as a disciple by the sect master......"
"Okay, okay!" Qin Feng waved his hand impatiently and reprimanded: "Don't bother me with your messy things! If you want to work here with me, it's simple, you can be flexible and quick with your hands and feet!"
"Haha, then Senior Uncle Qin can rest assured, I think Senior Brother Zhao will definitely give Uncle Zhao a big surprise!" Song Yongping glanced at Xu Chen and said with a meaningful smile.
"It's useless to say it! Let's stay for two days, if it doesn't work, where can I go! Now, don't bother me!"
As he spoke, Qin Feng turned around and walked towards the stone house, suddenly remembered something, turned back and pointed at Song Yongping and said, "Take him to the Jingshe, walk lightly, and make noise with me again, see if I don't smoke you to death!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Song Yongping hurriedly smiled.
After the stone gate was closed again, Song Yongping didn't dare to make a sound again, stretched out his hand to signal, and Xu Chen followed him away.
After a long walk around the criss-crossed stone steps, the two of them moved away from the magma field and came to the other end of the mountain.
"This is the Refining Pavilion's house!"
Song Yongping led Xu Chen into this cave that opened on the mountain wall like a beehive.
Although it is in the center of the mountain, the lighting of this cave is quite good, but it is not the red glow refracted by the refining furnace, but the cold and soft moonlight everywhere.
Xu Chen couldn't help but look up, but saw that there were many irregular holes on the mountain wall above his head, and the bright moonlight poured into the belly of the mountain through these holes.
These small holes must also be the handiwork of famous artists, with different shapes and sizes, but each place has its own different delicacy.
Or a few small grasses stretched out on the mountain wall, swaying in the breeze in the night, like a beautiful girl. Or a few raised strange stones deliberately left, strange or strange, each with its own place to see......
Looking up at the road, Xu Chen was not tired at all, every step had the scenery of every step, and he couldn't get tired of seeing it.
Looking at the intoxicated look on Xu Chen's face, Song Yongping was a little puzzled, and he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly.
"I didn't expect Senior Brother Zhao to be an elegant person!"
Xu Chen smiled and didn't speak.
Walking all the way and seeing the scenery along the way, Song Yongping led Xu Chen to a cave mansion and said: "Senior Brother Zhao must like to be clean, this area is an uninhabited cave mansion, I hope Senior Brother Zhao can be satisfied." ”
As he spoke, Song Yongping took down a small wooden plaque from the door number on the side of the cave entrance and motioned to Xu Chen: "Each cave house has an independent formation to guard, this formation can isolate the monk's divine sense, no matter what the junior disciple does in the cave, outsiders can't find out......"
"Not even the Sect Master!"
Seeing a trace of doubt in Xu Chen's eyes, Song Yongping, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, explained: "Because almost all the formations in the sect were laid out by the Void Cultivation Ancestor back then, the current monks have no ability to break them at all!"
Xu Chen was relieved.
Song Yongping continued: "This wooden card is the formation hub of the cave here, and it needs a drop of blood from Senior Brother Zhao to activate it. After that, unless Senior Brother Zhao himself came with this wooden card, even if outsiders grabbed the wooden card, it would be useless! Only after Senior Brother Zhao died, the formation here would be reset and restored to an inactive state. ”
Xu Chen immediately took the wooden card, bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood, the withered yellow wooden card suddenly emitted a soft blue light, and the cyan light curtain flashed at the entrance of the cave.
Song Yongping immediately pointed to a square groove on the light curtain and motioned Xu Chen to put the wooden card in his hand.
Xu Chen nodded, and embedded the wooden sign into it.
The cyan light curtain distorted instantly, and a thin line flashed from the center, and then retreated to the sides.
The door opened, and Song Yongping led Xu Chen in.
The cave house is very large, there is a small courtyard about the size of a small courtyard, and there are more than a dozen rooms on both sides of the wide hall.
"Is there such a big cave in other places?" This was the first time Xu Chen took the initiative to speak tonight, because he wanted to know this question.
"Of course!" Song Yongping nodded and said, "This is just an ordinary disciple's cave mansion, if you cultivate to the late stage of qi cultivation, you can change to a bigger one close to the spiritual veins everywhere! In the future, as your cultivation improves, the location of the cave mansion will be more superior, and the space will be more spacious!"
"If that's the case, the space in the sect seems to be a little insufficient, right?" Xu Chen looked at Song Yongping, who was first in the air on the wooden boat, Xu Chen had already roughly looked at the specific size of the Tiangong Sect's mountain gate, and he saw it more clearly along the way.
Tiangongzong occupies an area that is not very large, not even half of the area of Biancheng, although the sphere of influence under its jurisdiction is almost the same, but the mountain gate of Tiangongzong is just that size.
According to the news that Xu Chen inquired about in Biancheng, the disciples of the Tiangong Sect Mountain Gate, plus some mortal miscellaneous servants, there were about 100,000 people. If the lowest-level cave mansion was the size in front of them, then it would be absolutely impossible for the space of the Tiangong Sect Mountain Gate to accommodate so many people!
Even if you hollow out the entire belly of the mountain, you can't do it!
What's more, along the way, Xu Chen clearly saw many uninhabited dense forests, scenic mountain springs, waterfalls, and pavilions that were obviously only used for ornamentation......
No matter how you calculate it, the space of the Heavenly Gongzong is not enough!
Song Yongping was stunned for a while, and only after a moment did he understand Xu Chen's question, so he smiled and said: "Those ordinary handymen naturally can't enjoy a cave mansion of this size alone, and most of them are crowded together with more than a dozen people. ”
"However, in comparison, for a disciple with a high cultivation, the area of the cave is indeed much larger than that of a disciple with a low cultivation. Let's just say that those in the foundation building period are generally more than ten times larger than the disciples in the Qi refining stage!
"As for the Yuan Infant Cave Mansion, it's almost as big as half of the main peak!"
"How is that possible?" The doubts in Xu Chen's eyes became even heavier!
"What's this!" Song Yongping said with a smile: "The formations in the cave mansion all have a space folding effect, and the higher the level of the cave mansion, the stronger the folding effect!"
"A cave like yours looks deep and wide, but in fact, it's just a notch more than a foot deep in the cliff wall, and then the space is expanded by the formation......
Listening to Song Yongping explain this knowledge that he had never heard of before, Xu Chen became more and more surprised.
"Isn't that the same as a storage bag?"
"Huh, have you ever seen a storage bag?" Song Yongping's eyes lit up and he said in surprise.
Xu Chen shook his head and replied: "I only heard his name, but I didn't see the real thing!"
Song Yongping nodded with relief, and then said with a smile: "Actually, the storage bag is nothing unusual!"
"Ten thousand years ago, even the monks in the Qi refining period had almost one of these storage bags, but when the world changed greatly, the silk necessary to make the storage bags, with the extinction of silkworms, the supply was cut off, and the number of storage bags became less and less!"
"Later monks are looking for substitutes everywhere, after all, monks have long been accustomed to carrying a large number of magic weapons and pills, once there is no storage bag, wouldn't it be the same as mortals, and they have to carry a package when they travel?"
"It's just that as demon beasts become scarcer, several animal skins that can be used as substitutes have also become scarce...... Later, even though the various sects still had the method of making storage bags, it was difficult for Qiao women to cook without rice, and without materials, storage bags became a luxury......
"Over the years, with the continuous loss of storage bags, the number of storage bags in the cultivation realm has become less and less, and now there are no more than a dozen of them in each sect, and high-quality, large-capacity storage bags are even more scarce!"
"As the Tiangong Sect is a refining sect, the number will be more, there are so many hundred and ten!
As he spoke, Song Yongping actually took out a yellow brocade belt from his pocket and threw it to Xu Chen, and said with a smile: "This is the worst quality, if you want to put it aside, the monks in the early stage of Qi cultivation are estimated to be disgusted!"
"If Senior Brother Zhao likes it, then this storage bag will be given to Senior Brother Zhao!
Song Yongping's smile was very gentle, Xu Chen looked at it for a while, and then he also smiled: "This thing, people who don't have cultivation can't use it, right?"
Song Yongping was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I forgot about it!"
As he spoke, he was about to reach out and retrieve the storage bag, but Xu Chen put the storage bag into his arms with his backhand, and said to him with a smile: "But if I don't accept it, will I not live up to my brother's good intentions?" R1058
