Chapter 33: The Old Man in the Classroom
After Chen Chujian's explanation, Zhang Yi has a deeper understanding of quenching the film, and can successfully quench the film within five days. When the time comes, you will go up to the second floor.
Zhang Lin's next cultivation will completely rely on himself.
The rules of the White Horse Academy are strict, and the core disciples below must go to the corresponding teaching hall in the morning to listen to Mr. Hou's teachings. In the afternoon, it is freely assigned by the disciples. Of course, if you accept the assignment of the classroom, you can take leave from your husband.
Three days later, Zhang Yi ascended to the second floor of Zhengyan Hall and began to learn flesh and blood refining.
Zhang Yi attended classes on time every morning and practiced seriously in the afternoon. Occasionally, he exchanged his reading and practice experiences with Feng Chonglou, Qiao Juzheng and others, and his life was quite comfortable.
"Ah Yi, refining flesh and blood is much easier than the skin, but it takes some time. Feng Chonglou is teaching Zhang Yi the knowledge of refining flesh and blood, "The skin membrane is weak, and there are many problems that need to be paid attention to when refining, otherwise it is easy to damage the roots." "Flesh and blood, on the other hand, can withstand the roasting of the heart's fire, removing impurities from it and making it tough and powerful. ”
Qiao Juzheng also nodded and said: "The White Horse Academy is indeed very different, these days listening to Mr. Lecturing, the doubts of the previous practice are almost clear. ”
According to Mr. Shi, the human body is a house, with bones as the base, muscles and veins as beams, flesh and blood as walls, skin membranes as tiles, and five organs as decorations. Unlike building a house, these things exist in the human body itself, and our practice cannot start from the order of bones, muscles, veins, flesh, flesh, and skin, but to build tiles to protect the inside, and then strengthen the walls, recast the beams, consolidate the foundation, and then replace the interior. ”
Zhang Yi was silent, these gentlemen of the White Horse Academy are really powerful. He had heard this talk from a senior brother in the Holy Courtyard. It's just that the senior brother didn't wait for Zhang Yi to become an adult, and he ran out of life and passed away.
Refining flesh and blood is extremely simple, that is, using the spirit and heart fire that flesh and blood can withstand to temper with all their strength, making it supple as silk but extremely tough, and forming the body's defense together with the skin membrane.
Feng Qiao and the two talents bluntly said that this was a long process, and they began to refine their flesh and blood three years ago. It took half a year to complete the refining of the skin, but it took two and a half years to refine the flesh and blood.
Zhang Yi smiled, this was not a problem for him at all. The heart fire with a thick thumb is already the pinnacle level of Xiucai, and with full urging, at most one month, you can complete the tempering of flesh and blood.
As Zhang Yi expected, half a month after coming to the White Horse Academy, his whole body and flesh had been tempered. At this time, Zhang Yi's skin was as hard as bronze, his flesh and blood were swollen and tangled, and it was not a problem to pull out a thousand catties.
Zhang Yi ascended to the third floor of Zhengxin Hall in one month, and his popularity among Daoist disciples and beginner disciples was boiling. But he didn't directly start refining the big tendons, after all, there were some things needed to refine the tendons, and he didn't have any of them.
"Winter vine leaves, green black grass, these two medicines need to be exchanged for points, and I don't have any extra here. But I have a lot of other adjuvants. Qiao Ju was embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
Zhang Yi patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay." ”
After listening to the class on the third floor for two days, coupled with the guidance of Feng Chonglou and Qiao Juzheng, Zhang Yi knew that it took a lot of things to temper the big tendons. The two herbs of winter vine leaves and green Xuancao are very valuable, and they are rarely sold in Tianliangzhou.
Generally speaking, the only way to get these two things is to complete the tasks issued by the classroom.
Feng Chonglou had a bitter face, as a child of a famous family, he had no shortage of books and treasures since he was a child, and it was not until he came to the White Horse Academy that he knew that the little belongings he brought were not enough. He and Qiao Juzheng have only tempered one-third of their body's muscles until now.
"It seems that we can only go to the classroom once. Zhang Yi said.
Feng Qiao and the others nodded hurriedly, this was the only way at the moment.
Zhang Yi didn't have any belongings at all; although the two of them came from famous families, they couldn't reach out to their families to ask for money when they came to study at the academy.
There are many testing grounds in the White Horse Academy, where disciples can learn from each other and improve each other. One of the largest testing grounds is called Nanshan.
The classroom is located in the right corner of Nanshan Field, next to a huge gray tree.
"This gray tree is ten zhang high and about twenty zhang wide, and it was transplanted from the Southern Tang Kingdom by the dean. The flowering period seems to be coming soon, and the whole Nanshan field will be filled with its fragrance at that time. Chen Chujian, the girl in the white dress, walked in front and introduced all kinds of things along the way to Zhang Yi and the others.
Zhang Yi and the others were extremely embarrassed, they had been concentrating on their studies for a month, and rarely wandered around the inner courtyard; they were about to go to the classroom after class, but they found that they and the others did not know where to go at all. happened to meet the girl in the white dress, and she led her all the way over.
Chen Chu didn't know how many white dresses there were, but every time Zhang Yi saw her, she was wearing a white dress, and she always called her a girl in a white dress in her heart.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. ”
The classroom had arrived, and Zhang Yi and the three of them began to thank them.
Chen Chu sneered when he saw it, and said, "I'm not a gentleman, Mr. Liu was delayed some time ago, and I just came to help with substitute teaching." ”
Seeing that the three of them looked dazed, Chen Chujian explained: "Mr. College is divided into three classes, Mr. Liu is the general teacher, the top is the deacon who is in charge of each part, and the top is the professor. Mr. Professors are all well-known scholars, and Mr. Deacon is in charge of all parts, and all of them are indispensable. A professor like Mr. Liu is a general beginner disciple, and if something is delayed, it doesn't hurt to find a trusted friend to substitute for the teacher. ”
After the girl in the white dress said this, Zhang Yi and the others understood.
Chen Chujian grinned and said, "January has arrived, and Mr. Liu will be back today, so I don't have to substitute teach." I happened to come to see if there were any tasks to do in the classroom, and I had to earn money to buy some rouge gouache. ”
“...... I see. Zhang Yi and the three of them were speechless, and followed the girl in the white dress towards the classroom.
The school hall is very small, with only one hut, which is one zhang high and one zhang long and wide. It can't be compared to a behemoth like the Teaching Hall, and even the School Hall is much bigger than it.
Zhang Yi and the others entered it and saw all the furnishings at a glance. The interior decoration is also extremely simple, with a long table in the middle and a row of cabinets behind it. There are hundreds of small squares of the same size in the cabinet.
Behind the long table, there was a gray-haired scholar, who was facing away from Zhang Yi and the others at the moment, rummaging through the cabinet.
Chen Chujian bowed down and said, "Mr. Tang, is there any better task you can receive now?"
Mr. Tang turned around, his skin was yellow, his right eye was white, his face was full of furrows, and there was an ugly knife mark. But his left eye was blazing, and it swept over Zhang Yi and the others, like a cold blade, making the three of them shiver.
This old gentleman's strength is so strong.
The old gentleman set his eyes on the girl in the white dress, grinned instantly, opened his mouth with a few yellow teeth missing, and said: "It turned out that the girl of the Chen family came, and she did the task when she did the task, why did she bring three burdens." ”
"......" Feng Chonglou has always been unruly, and he has been hit a little hard at the moment. The old gentleman on the other side was obviously very powerful, and this kind of momentum was not even comparable to his father who was the head of the famous family, and he didn't dare to provoke him.
"......" Qiao Juzheng looked surprised and quite angry, this old gentleman was too rude, he couldn't help but want to defend himself.
Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, pressed Qiao Juzheng's hand, and said with a smile: "Old man, you misunderstood, we are just walking with Miss Chen, not to complete the task together." ”
Mr. Tang snorted: "Did I ask you? You kid is too rude." ”
"......" Now, even Zhang Yi doesn't know what to do, this old gentleman's temperament is a little too perverse.
The girl in the white dress sneered, stepped forward and grabbed the old gentleman's arm and shook it, "Grandpa Tang, it's easy for you to scare others like this." This is a descendant of the longbow Confucian, and the poem "Peach Blossom with a Human Face" I read to you a few days ago was written by him. These two are also descendants of famous families. ”
Mr. Tang looked at Zhang Yi again with one eye, and then nodded: "In this way, you kid is not bad." The song "Peach Blossom with a Human Face" is well written, but it is a little girly, and there will be more killing in the future when writing poems. ”
As for Feng Chonglou and Qiao Juzheng, he didn't take a look.
Zhang Yi bowed and saluted, "The student remembers." ”
Feng Chonglou winked at Zhang Yi and Qiao Juzheng, indicating that the old man was really sick.
Under the coquettishness of the girl in the white dress, the old gentleman turned around again, felt for a long time from one of the cabinets, and pulled out a piece of paper.
"There seems to be traces of water demons in the Southern Tang Qing Water Pavilion generation recently, and the academy has decided to form a team of six disciples to go and investigate. The road is a bit long, so the rewards are huge. ”
Mr. Tang said slowly: "Girl Chen, that kid from the Mu family has already received this task, or you can talk to the girl of the Lu family, and the three of you can go and have a look." The scenery over there in Nantang is excellent, and when I come back, help me bring a few pots of flower carving. ”
"As for these three boys, if you want to follow along, you can also take them. Well, the flesh and blood of the skin membrane have just been quenched, and it is a little delayed. ”
Zhang Yi and the three of them were hit again, and Feng Chonglou even clenched his fists. If he hadn't been able to beat this old guy, he would have done it a long time ago.
The girl in the white dress grinned and said, "Since Grandpa Tang said that the reward is very rich, it is really rich." That's it, and the six of us take on this task. ”
The four of them saluted Mr. Tang and walked towards the dormitory.
Feng Chonglou said angrily: "Mr. Chen, who is this old guy, why is he so rude." ”
"Don't be angry, Mr. Tang is a great hero of the Academy. Chen Chu saw that several people must be angry in their hearts, and hurriedly relieved, "He was originally a professor of the academy, and he had great contributions to the academy, and once in order to save the lives of the disciples of the academy during a mission, he was seriously injured by the water demon, and his strength fell to the jinshi, and the dean was worried about him, so he let him be in charge of the classroom." Over the years, Mr. Tang has not left the academy, so his temper has become a little perverse. ”
