Cold and summer, autumn harvest and winter hiding, unconsciously, Xuan Jing has been in retreat in the secret room for almost a year. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Everyone in the Qingyun Cave Mansion, in this year, no one has seen their master Xuan Jing, only Ziyue is a little girl, who guards the door of the secret room every day, responsible for serving tea and food to Xuan Jing from the hole in the secret room, but Ziyue has never seen Xuan Jing once in this year.

However, when Huiqin's sister was leaving, she specially instructed Ziyue, saying that no matter what, Gongzi would leave the customs on the first day of December, because this day was not only Xuanjing's birthday, but also the death anniversary of his parents.

So on this day of the first day of the twelfth month, Ziyue got up early, went to the kitchen to make a bowl of longevity noodles, and cleaned the tablet room where Xuanjing usually commemorates, and finally arranged for someone to boil a large bucket of hot water, waiting for Xuanjing to bathe after leaving the customs.

By noon, everyone in the entire Qingyun Cave Mansion clearly heard a clear dragon roar, Xuanjing was out of the customs!

Xuan Jing walked out of the secret room and did not immediately stand in the sunlight, he was afraid that his eyes might not be used to this intensity of sunlight now.

For a whole year, in the dark secret room, relying only on a night pearl, Xuan Jing began to comprehend the forbidden martial arts recorded on the scroll that the stone was like brought.

Sure enough, the key to the Heart Burning Technique is to bear the pain that ordinary people can't bear with great courage, and fill your heart with hatred and anger, so that you can bring the magic power of this Heart Sect into full play.

When Xuan Jing chose to swallow the Gu King who was highly poisonous in the world without hesitation, the toxins instantly filled every pore on his body, and finally these toxins flowed into Xuan Jing's heart, and Xuan Jing felt that the whole person had fallen into the boundless darkness of hell.

That kind of pain is not only physical, but layers of torture from the body to the soul, but the irony is that no matter how much pain Xuan Jing endures, he will not die, or even fall into a coma, and the toxin is frantically tormenting Xuan Jing at the same time, it also stimulates Xuan Jing's heart.

Even under the stimulation of toxins, Xuan Jing has five senses that are several times clearer than usual, that is to say, his perception of pain is many times clearer than usual, if it weren't for the Fuxi rhythm that Huiqin planted in Xuan Jing's body before, Xuan Jing even suspected that his heart would explode due to excessive painful stimulation!

And after every bit of pain was endured by Xuan Jing, his heart was even stronger than usual! And the more he went later, the more intense the pain Xuan Jing suffered, and even multiplied. Even if it weren't for the national enemy, the three-year covenant with Huiqin, the deathbed entrustment of Shenjun and Liu Xiang, and the oath made in front of his father, it is very likely that Xuanjing would choose to end his life by himself because of the pain of devouring souls!

Finally, after paying a huge price, all the toxins of the Gu King were absorbed by Xuan Jing, and the Heart Burning Recipe in the body has been fed with poison, and now it has exerted greater power, Xuan Jing at this time, and Xuan Jing a year ago, are already two people who are very different!

Ziyue was on the side, cautiously looking at the owner in front of him, this young man seems to have changed in essence from a year ago, but there are some specific changes, Ziyue really can't say, Xuanjing is taller, his body is also a little thinner, his face was originally slightly rounded, but now he is a little thin, and he is still wearing the robe before the retreat, which has become much shorter.

Fortunately, Sister Huiqin made a robe for Childe a few years later before leaving, and Childe should go to take a bath now and put on a new robe, which should be more heroic!

"Childe?" Ziyue asked carefully: "Ziyue has already asked people to boil hot water, so let's take a shower and change clothes first!" ”

Hearing this, Xuan Jing looked down at himself, and couldn't help but smile dumbly, he had been in retreat for a whole year, and now he was no different from the beggars on the street, and his body still exuded a stinky smell, and it seemed that taking a bath was the most urgent thing now.

……

When the servants of Qingyun Cave Mansion saw Xuan Jing, Xuan Jing had already finished bathing and changing, and he looked sharper than a year ago.

Xuan Jing saw that everyone's eyes were a little strange when they looked at him, and after thinking about it, he suddenly understood the meaning, and secretly said that he was patronizing the exercises, and he didn't know how to cultivate qi and hide essence.

At that moment, Xuan Jing took a long breath, reversed his internal breath for a week, and put away the aggressive brilliance on his body, at this time, Xuan Jing looked like just a thin and tall teenager.

Xuan Jing went to the hut where his parents were ranked, put a stick of incense on his parents, and then ate the bowl of longevity noodles that Ziyue made for himself.

At this time, Ziyue took a few letters, saying that Huiqin's sister came from Jizhou, because Xuanjing was in retreat, Ziyue opened it on her behalf, but they were all words to report safety, and Ziyue had already replied to Huiqin in time according to Xuanjing's instructions in the morning.

Xuanjing took those letters, and saw that the last one was sent last month, and it said that everything was fine with Huiqin and Chiyo Mochizuki, and the clansmen of the Meteorite Division really didn't dare to embarrass Huiqin, and the hundred elite soldiers sent by General Hu Feng from Huangzhou had already arrived in Jizhou, and now they are stationed in the Fengchen Department to protect the safety of Huiqin and Mochizuki and others.

However, in the letter, Huiqin also mentioned that her father's condition was serious, but she had not found a suitable elixir at the moment, and could only rely on the elders of the clan to forcibly use secret techniques to continue her life, and at the same time, at the end of the letter, Huiqin lightly told her thoughts about Xuanjing, hoping that Xuanjing could come to Jizhou to visit her as soon as possible in her spare time.

Xuan Jing slowly put down the letter in his hand, and remembered Sister Qin's lonely expression on the ice sheet in Jizhou, and felt depressed for a while, but just now Sister Qin's letter mentioned a thing called "Phantom Grass", saying that it could cure her father's illness, Xuan Jing secretly wrote it down in her heart, thinking that she should pay attention in the rivers and lakes in the future, once there is a trace of Phantom Grass, then you can get it at all costs and treat Sister Qin's father.

According to the usual practice, the Yequan Academy of Economics and Strategy admits students to the school in June every year, and the enrollment begins on July 20, but the new students do not directly enter the Academy to study, but first go to the Zuo Weiwei camp in Fengdu to live for a month, eat and sleep with those soldiers, and participate in the same drills every day.

Of course, it's still early, since Xuanjing has already left the customs, he naturally wants to go to Sanqingmen to visit Gu Tingxu, but it's a pity that Shi Tingjun is busy with defense in Fengdu this year and has not been able to return to Wucheng.

Early this morning, Xuan Jing prepared a few exquisite gifts and rode a carriage to the Qingtian Cave Mansion in Sanqingmen to visit Gu Tingxu.

As soon as Gu Tingxu heard that Xuan Jing was out of the customs, he hurriedly came out to greet him, and when he saw Xuan Jing's face, he was first stunned, and then he looked at it again, and couldn't help but praise:

"It seems that Xuan Gongzi's retreat this year has not been in vain, his cultivation has made great progress, he has reached the realm of hiding essence and cultivating qi, it seems that it will not take three years at most, even I have to let you compare!" In addition to admiration, Gu Ting's empty words also had a sense of emotion.

Xuan Jing smiled slightly, thinking that Mr. Gu was cultivating and blessing his own secret arts, and he was forcibly cultivating forbidden techniques in order to achieve speed, although he entered the realm for a long time, but the pain of this process was not something ordinary people could imagine.

"Mr. Gu has won the award, and I can get some progress in this retreat, which is also inseparable from Mr. Gu's guidance in the past."

The two of them said a few polite words at the door, and Gu Tingxu hurriedly let Xuan Jing into the mansion, and hurriedly instructed the disciples to serve tea and hospitality.

Gu Tingxu took a sip of tea, looked at Xuan Jing with a smile and said, "Master Xuan is out of the customs this time, and his cultivation is a great success, I don't know what to do next?" ”

Xuan Jing groaned slightly, "Mr. Gu, let's not hide it, there is still a long time before the opening of the Jingluo Academy, and I haven't thought about where to go, or to retreat for a while to stabilize my cultivation?" ”

Gu Tingxu shook his head and said: "The ancestor once said that retreat is a last resort when there is a bottleneck in cultivation, and the foundation of cultivation is to enter the world and practice, otherwise if you learn from those foolish people, you only know how to sit and sit down, and you will not be able to cultivate anything famous in your life!" ”

Xuan Jing heard this, nodded and praised secretly, knowing that this Mr. Gu is worthy of being the first disciple of the Divine Monarch, and his vision and knowledge can be said to be beyond ordinary people, whether it is martial arts or secret arts, if he can't see the world's masters and travel all over the world, then after all, the pattern is not opened, no matter how diligent and pendeficial, he can't reach the realm of first-class masters after all.

This is precisely why the families of the sects of all dynasties have to let their disciples travel more in the world, so that they can add luster to the sect or family, and secondly, it is also the only way to improve their own cultivation.

Xuan Jing thought for a while and said, "I wonder if Mr. Gu has heard of 'Shadow Grass'?" ”

Gu Tingxuan was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Xuan Jing asked, "Phantom Grass?" Of course, I have heard of it, it is one of the three strange grasses in the world, it is said that it can live the dead, flesh and bones, extremely cherished and rare, I don't know what Xuan Gongzi asked this shadow grass for? ”

Xuan Jing said: "Sir doesn't know, the father of the Huiqin girl in my house is seriously ill, and now on the Jizhou ice sheet, relying on the elders of the clan to continue her life with secret techniques all day long, the Huiqin girl said in her heart that if she can find this shadow grass, she may be able to save her father's life." ”

Gu Tingxu frowned, "Master Xuan, if only the Shadow Grass can save Miss Huiqin's father, then please forgive the old man for speaking bluntly......" Gu Tingxu paused when he said this.

Xuan Jing hurriedly asked: "Sir, but it doesn't matter, Sister Qin treats me like a brother, and I treat Sister Qin like a sister, as long as I can help Sister Qin, no matter how valuable the shadow grass is, I have to find a way to ask for it!" ”
