Chapter 3: Spirituality

There are two trees outside the Spelling Spirit Pavilion, one is a date tree, and the other is also a date tree.

The difference is that a tree is old, and it is there when you start with Qiran. The other one was planted by Lu Xiaoyu after he entered.

Now, the old one is still alive, but the little sapling that has just stood up is... He died.

Qi Ran got up with his body that was about to fall apart, and was relieved to see Bai Nanyi, who was only slightly bruised on the side.

Lu Xiaoyu and the other disciples at the door rushed over after hearing the movement, and saw Bai Nanyi leaning against the wall with messy clothes, frowning lightly at the eye-catching abrasions on Xuebai's arms.

On the side, Qi Ran was holding the remains of half of the jujube tree with a painful expression.

This scene is really resonating!

"Bastard, what did you do?"

Lu Xiaoyu hurriedly ran over, helped Bai Nanyi, and scolded Qi Ran angrily.

"Little fish, don't be rude!"

Although Bai Nanyi didn't know what was wrong with the Soul Furnace just now, judging from the huge momentum it generated, if it wasn't for Qi Ran's quick enough reaction, the two of them would probably have to lose their skin if they didn't die.

Qi Ran dusted off the dirt on his body, and was just about to stand up straight, when a sharp pain came from his calf. Looking down, the stubble of a crushed branch poked a hole in the calf, and the blood flowed profusely.

I didn't feel anything when I was just sitting, but when I moved, the branch pulled at the wound, and suddenly a tearing pain struck.

"What's wrong with you?......"

Lu Xiaoyu was a little bloodless, and was suddenly a little frightened and speechless.

Qi Ran glanced at her, and said a little weakly speechless: "Nonsense, such a big wound still asks! Call 120!"

Bai Nanyi hurriedly walked over, and when she saw the wound on Qi Ran's leg, she couldn't help but be a little moved. But after all, she is an elder, but she didn't mess up, after carefully helping Qi Ran clean up the wounded branches, she gritted her teeth and tore a piece of white cloth from her sleeve and bandaged it simply, and picked a burly disciple from the side and said, "Carry him to Yao Lao!"

At this time, Wang Wei also rushed to the scene, and when he saw the chaotic scene and Qi Ran on the back of a sect disciple, he was shocked: "What's wrong?"

Bai Nanyi motioned for the disciple to go first, stood up with a somewhat solemn face and said, "The Soul Furnace, it seems to have exploded!"

"What?" Although he heard it very sincerely, Wang Wei still couldn't believe it: "You mean that the soul furnace has exploded?"

Bai Nanyi nodded, didn't say anything, and hurriedly walked towards the small courtyard where Yao Lao lived.

It wasn't until Bai Nanyi completely disappeared in front of him that Wang Wei recovered from the shock. He looked at the broken window on the third floor of the Spell Spirit Pavilion, and after a moment of silence, he dispersed the disciples who were watching the excitement next to him, and cautiously went upstairs.

......

As night fell, after Qi Ran woke up from his coma, he saw Pei Yuan sitting at the head of the bed, and behind him, several senior brothers were sitting silently.

After being carried by a disciple whose name he didn't know, he fainted, and when he looked at the furnishings in the room, he knew that he was still in the old medicine room.

"Awake?"

Pei Yuan's tone was rarely a little gentle.

The people behind heard the sound and immediately gathered around.

Qi Ran pouted: "Senior brother, I'm a little thirsty!"

Pei Yuan was just about to get up, when a somewhat old voice came from behind: "Let me let Xiao Qizi drink this bowl of medicine." ”

An old man in a gray robe walked in with a bowl of black liquid.

Qi Ran's face darkened.

I said that you can't change the name of the old man, why is it so awkward!

After pinching his nose and pouring a large bowl of medicine, the wrinkled medicine elder said with relief: "You kid didn't drink medicine so neatly when he was a child, and he had to be lured by the old man with sugar." I remember that you said that you would never drink the medicine prepared by the old man again, why, today you broke your teeth?"

Everyone laughed, and Qi Ran said embarrassedly: "Isn't that a kid young and ignorant, you have a really good memory." ”

Yao Lao laughed, and quickly withdrew the empty bowl in Qi Ran's hand, without the sluggishness of the old man of the same age, and scolded with a smile: "It's really flamboyant, okay, it's not a big deal; After saying this, Yao Lao patted his chest, obviously quite confident in his medical skills.

He continued, "I'm going out to collect medicine, you can talk to yourself!"

After Yao Lao left, Pei Yuan frowned slightly and said, "What happened?"

Qi Ran naturally knew what he was asking, his eyes looked around the room, and fell on Bai Nanyi's body, and found that her face was a little pale, obviously not completely coming back to her senses.

"I went to fill the sound transmission stone today, and the soul furnace suddenly exploded!"

"It's that simple?" Pei Yuan was obviously very dissatisfied with Qi Ran's answer, he naturally knew about the explosion of the Spirit Furnace, and what he really wanted to ask was the cause of the explosion.

At this moment, Wang Wei suddenly spoke: "I went to the scene afterwards to take a look, and the Soul Furnace has been completely shattered, and the magic circle under it has also dispersed!"

There was silence in the room, which was obviously extremely bad news.

Qi Ran sat up and explained: "In fact, there was a vision when the Soul Furnace was filled two months ago, and now that the Xuanmen is flourishing, there are more and more cultivators in the world, and the spiritual power of heaven and earth has naturally become scarce. ”

"The spiritual power required for the formation circulation of the Living Spirit Furnace is fixed, and if the gathered spiritual power does not reach this fixed amount, it will cause damage to the Living Spirit Furnace, and in the long run, the damage is a matter of time, but I didn't expect this day to come so quickly. ”

"Then what now?" Bai Nanyi looked at Pei Yuan worriedly, and then said: "Many spirit stone magic weapons in the Charm Gate rely on the Spirit Furnace to operate, but now that the Spirit Furnace is exploding, these spirit stone magic weapons will stop working until they run out of spiritual power. ”

"Yes!" Spirit Demon Pavilion Elder Liu Jingzi said: "Master, his old man left suddenly, and he didn't teach us the operating principle of the Spirit Furnace, could it be that he really wants to be artificially filled with spirits in the future?"

At the mention of this, everyone shuddered, the experience of filling the spirit stone with spirit stones in the first cultivation was simply unforgettable.

Qi Ran shook his head and said: "There is a good saying, everything is not separated from its sect, and the master has taught us all the theoretical foundations." Moreover, he once said that the operation of all spirit array artifacts is inseparable from the support of basic theories, and we can split the various parts of the spirit furnace and study its structure one by one. ”

Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized, Pei Yuan Si said: "First of all, you can separate the spirit furnace from the magic circle, in this way, the spirit furnace itself is equivalent to a large spirit stone, which is used to store spiritual power, and the magic circle below is a large spirit gathering array that absorbs spiritual power." ”

Qi Ran nodded: "This is just the initial division, the role of the Soul Furnace is not only to store spiritual power, but also to output spiritual power, so on top of the Soul Furnace, there should be a magic circle that regulates spiritual power." ”

"The operation of the Spirit Gathering Array itself requires spiritual power, and this part of the spiritual power comes from the spiritual power that has been accumulated in the Soul Furnace, so as long as the Spirit Gathering Array is running, it is equivalent to a perpetual motion machine, which will continuously absorb spiritual power from heaven and earth. ”

"However, no matter what material the Soul Furnace is made of, its capacity is limited, and our problem is how to make the Spirit Gathering Array operate when the Spirit Furnace is empty, and stop when the Spirit Furnace is full of spiritual power. Furthermore, in order to prevent an explosion like this one, the spiritual power required for the operation of the Spirit Gathering Array must be extremely small, so as to ensure that the Spirit Furnace will not be damaged when the spiritual power of heaven and earth is empty. ”

Qi Ran looked at the expressions of the senior brothers who seemed to understand whether they understood or not, and suddenly felt a sense of weakness that could not be moved.

couldn't help but complain to himself: "How bad is the standard of accepting apprentices before the master and his old man accept him as an apprentice, looking at their expressions, it seems that they are in contact with these things for the first time."

Knock on the blackboard!

But this type of question has obviously been talked about many times!

I really don't understand how they sat in this position one by one, Qi Ran looked at the expressions of the senior brothers in the clouds, and said helplessly: "Okay, this matter can't be done in a day or two, the top priority at the moment is to settle down the Confucian students of Chang'an Academy who will come tomorrow." As for the matter of the Soul Furnace, I can't do anything else these days, I will straighten out all the principles as much as possible, and give you the drawings when the time comes, and these days, you can just take the time to prepare more materials. ”

Pei Yuan's expression gradually changed a lot, and he smiled curtly: "Okay! Then there is Senior Brother Lao in this matter, you have a good rest, we will leave first." ”

Qi Ran rolled his eyes.

I'm all in bed, and you're still smiling so happily.

Suddenly, a brilliant idea came to mind.

As soon as Pei Yuan stepped out of the threshold with half a foot, Qi Ran's voice floated out again: "Senior brother, I can't go out in this situation now, what do you think about this school inspector?"

Pei Yuan said briskly: "I'll make other arrangements for this matter, so you don't have to worry about it, just take care of your injuries." ”

Qi Ran said again: "What about this salary?"

The corners of Pei Yuan's mouth twitched: "Count it as a subsidy for your injury, or double it for you." ”

Qi Ran continued: "But the lights on Yao Lao's side are not on, and the theoretical knowledge of the graduate spirit furnace is a hard bone, I am afraid that if it goes on like this for a few days, my eyes will be ......."

Without waiting for Qi Ran to finish speaking, Pei Yuan immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll let the disciple go down the mountain to get a few pairs of glasses." You slowly recuperate, senior brother, I still have some things to deal with urgently. ”

"What?" Qi Ran looked at the door with a confused face: "I have a sentence that Mpp doesn't know whether to say or not." ”

I thought I could "blackmail" again, but you gave me a sentence to let the disciple get glasses?

Theoretical knowledge is not good, this brain circuit is not ordinary fresh!

Anyway, Qi Ran resigned himself to looking at the bandaged wound on his leg and lay back silently.

It hurts!

At the door, Huang Wei was a little depressed after hearing that Qi Ran was bedridden and had double his salary, and secretly swore an oath.

I must become a top student!

ps: The collection recommendation is a little less, is it good to dry!
