Chapter 31: Cuiwen Building (3)

"Uncle Yu, this fellow Taoist has books to sell. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Entering the room, the white-shirted monk respectfully addressed the old monk behind the table.

The old monk nodded slightly, and talked to the middle-aged monk in front of him for a few more words, and after confirming that the conversation was complete, he summoned another white-shirted monk outside the door and led the middle-aged monk out of the room.

"Come and sit. The old monk pointed to Zhao Li's position in front of him.

Zhao Li was not hypocritical, he sat down generously in the past, and when he turned around, he saw that the white-shirted monk who led him in had retreated to stand guard outside the door at some point.

"Exercises, spells, or mortal ink treasures?" the old monk asked straight to the point, his voice hoarse and low, but steady and powerful.

"It's a mortal ink treasure, but it's made below. Facing the old monk in front of him, Zhao Li didn't dare to hold it up, and respectfully took out a jade slip and sent it to the old monk with both hands. The jade slip that Zhao Li took out at this moment is naturally not a trial version, but a complete story of "Journey to the West".

"Oh. The old monk glanced at Zhao Li, and flashed a hint of surprise, but he quickly hid it, he couldn't build a foundation for cultivation, unless he came to sell the posthumous works of his predecessors, ninety-nine percent of them were worthless poems and articles, and the remaining one percent was hardly of much value.

Picking up a cup of spiritual tea on the table and taking a sip, the old monk calmly picked up the jade slip in Zhao Li's hand and immersed his mind in it.

But as soon as the old monk immersed his mind in the jade slip, he hurriedly opened his eyes in the second second, stared at Zhao Li, and said, "This is the full version of "Journey to the West, where did you get it?"

Thanks to the blessing of the invincible naval army offensive, as well as the successful marketing of the trial version, the name "Journey to the West" is now famous in the entire Yuntai Mountain, and countless people are asking where the full version of the book is.

Zhao Li said: "It's the full version of "Journey to the West", yes, I wrote it myself. ”

"You wrote this "Journey to the West" and you are the old driver?" the expression on the old monk's face was full of the word "suspicious".

"Ah, the old driver is the pen name that he thought of at the next moment, and he didn't dare to hide his predecessors, his real name was 'Zhao Li', he was originally a mountain citizen outside Qingshan City, and he was lucky to get a big opportunity to cultivate at the Qindi Xianmen Ceremony, and he wrote this "Journey to the West" just to beg for food. Zhao Li smiled and said, his name 'old driver' was purely a bad taste, but he didn't want the people around him to say that this name contained great chance, and even Nie Linghui's eyes changed when he looked at him.

The old monk stared at Zhao Li motionless as he spoke, as if he wanted to judge whether Zhao Li's words were true or false, and after a while, he said loudly to the outer door: "Tang Zile, go and get the jade slip of the last round of the Immortal Gate Acceptance Ceremony." ”

"Yes. The monk known as Tang Zile was the white-shirted monk who led Zhao Li in, he answered at the door, and the old monk took a deep look at Zhao Li, and immersed his mind in the jade slip of "Journey to the West".

Since the establishment of the Qindi Immortal League, whenever there is a big event, it will make a detailed jade slip record after the fact, taking the Xianmen Grand Ceremony of recruiting people as an example, up to how many people have been recruited by each sect, down to how many people have participated in the audition in each city and town, and what outstanding talents and vision manifestations have appeared. In the old monk's opinion, if Zhao Li can really write "The Legend of Journey to the West", then he should not be an unknown person at the Xianmen Grand Ceremony, but the strange thing is that looking at Zhao Li's cultivation, it is obviously not like a person who has a future to be recruited by the gate faction - if there is the support of the sect, do you need to come to sell books? If there is a future, the sect will definitely vigorously cultivate, and in one year, if you have the qualifications and resources, it is no problem to basically reach the fourth or fifth level of qi refining.

After half a cup of tea, Tang Zile came in with a palm-sized jade plate, and put the jade plate on the table next to the old monk, Tang Zile glanced at Zhao Li with deep meaning in his eyes. The monk's six senses are far beyond ordinary people, he is guarding the door, he listens to the conversation in the room clearly, the little monk in front of him is really bold, I don't know where to pick up "Journey to the West", and he dares to pretend to be an old driver.

After nearly an hour, the old monk opened his eyes, put down the jade slip of "Journey to the West" in his hand, his face was still unfinished, and then picked up the jade plate sent by Tang Zile and immersed himself in it again, this time it was very fast, according to Zhao Li's mental calculation, it only took less than two minutes to put down the jade plate.

"Zhao Li, the five elements belong to fire, inferior qualifications, is the west of Qingshan City Zhaojia Village people's clan, ancestors all live in this village, when they were young, their parents went into the mountains to collect medicine and their whereabouts are unknown, they were raised by their uncles and aunts, and at the age of fourteen, they entered the mountain villa opened by the Liu family in Qingshan City to raise medicine・・・・・・ or have the ability to never forget, because of their poetic talent and received by Changle Gate in advance, and finally because they switched to other doors and were punished for life and were not allowed to enter the Taoist Gate to practice, they cultivated the "Shangyuan Juxing Specification" awarded by the Jushan Temple・・・・・・" The old monk looked at Zhao Li and said a lot in an unhurried tone.

The more Zhao Li listened, the more frightened he became, he didn't expect that he just showed his face, participated in a fairy gate ceremony, and even the origin of the eighteenth generation of his ancestors was dug up clearly, and at the same time pricked up his ears to write down all the origins he didn't know, so he didn't have to pretend to have amnesia in the future, and he was not a black household!

"This Zhao Li, is it you?" the old monk put down the jade plate in his hand and asked Zhao Li.

"Yes. Zhao Li nodded.

"Or you may have the ability to never forget, and you have a talent for poetry... I now believe that this "Journey to the West" was written by you. The old monk looked at Zhao Li with some regret, and said: "Do you know that your two poems, even within the Mowen Sect, have already been recited, looking at your "Journey to the West", I am afraid that the talent shown in those two poems is only the tip of the iceberg. ”

Zhao Li smiled lightly: "The predecessor Miao praised, he is just a mountain and a wild person, and it is a blessing to be able to step into the cultivation path, although it is only a first-order casual cultivation, but he is satisfied, and he only looks forward to stepping into the foundation one day." Seniors, let's talk about this "Journey to the West". ”

The old monk nodded, and said: "This book is exquisitely conceived, throughout the entire Qin land, the old man is the first time to see the book of the human race and the demon race on the road together, the heavenly court, the underworld, and Buddhism mentioned in the book are even more unheard of, and now there is a 'trial version' in the market, I have also read it, and there are many comments, just the 'six roots of purity' and Tang Seng first ambushed the demon monkey, and then subdued the white dragon horse, it is the heart ape and the horse said...

Zhao Li shook his head and said: "This book was just written in order to mix some Bigu Dan at the tea stall, but this book was conceived many years ago, when as a mortal, I often heard the words of 'immortals, immortals, and demons', and over time, I began to think of some stories in my mind to piece together, as for what 'six roots are pure', 'heart ape and horse', it is not hidden, it is pure' The author has no intention, the reader has a heart', these statements were only thought up after the book was written, but it was just to attract more people to read it, if there was really any coincidence, it can only be said that 'the article is natural, and the magic hand gets it'. ”

"What a sentence 'The article is made by nature, and the clever hand can get it'!" The old monk slapped the table, and his eyes lit up when he looked at Zhao Li: "This sentence is also what you thought of yourself?"

"・・・・・・" The corners of Zhao Li's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, if he accidentally said that in his previous life, it would be trouble.
