Chapter Forty-Nine: Peeling Back the Cocoon
When Huang Ming returned to the office, Dong Jin was not here, and a disciple of the outer sect who was not too young told Huang Ming that Uncle Xue Yi was waiting for him at his residence.
Xue Yi sat leisurely at Huang Ming's door, leaning against the door, holding the "Duzhong" big bow that Huang Ming had put in the room, and looked at the new inner disciple who trotted all the way with a smile.
God appreciates food, you have to eat if you don't eat?
Huang Ming saluted in a proper manner, shouted to his uncle, and glanced at the object in Xue Yi's hand, Xue Yi pushed the big bow to Huang Ming, "Why is such a good thing placed in the house at will?" Aren't you afraid of being taken away by thieves? ”
"This is Taiqing Ancestral Mountain," Huang Ming pushed the big bow back to Xue Yi, "With Uncle Fang Hua presiding over here, who dares to come here to make a mistake?" ”
"Remember, the record is under the personal jurisdiction of the Liang Sect Master, and Senior Brother Fang and I are just taking care of daily affairs" Xue Yi shook his head, "I am familiar with bamboo, and this bowstring is not a vulgar thing, how much money to buy?" Xue Yi flicked the bowstring and made a soft thump.
"Uncle Hui, this item was purchased from a store in Sanjiang City, and the materials were all provided by them, and it was made by our Taiqing's 'Thirteen Craftsmen', and they asked me for a spirit coin."
"Haha, it's about the same as I estimated, bamboo, let's not talk about it, let's talk about this bowstring?"
"Uncle Shi, has this bowstring also been pitted?" Huang Ming smiled bitterly.
"Definitely, if I hadn't looked away, this would be the long beard of Nan Mizawa's notoriously difficult armor beard beast, but I'm not sure about it, and I need to let Senior Brother Shangsang, who happens to be in the door, palm his eyes."
Huang Ming gathered his mind and hurriedly asked, "The store said that it was a three-headed snake's snake tendon, is there a mistake in the investigation?" ”
"Three-headed snake tendons? Haha, it's a little bit like, you must know that we have big lakes in the north of Size, and the three-headed snake in your mouth doesn't dare to say that it is everywhere, but it is also very common, this snake is no different except for a few circles larger than the ordinary water snake, and it can't even be called a demon beast, how can there be a snake tendon that can absorb both body and qi at the same time? ”
After speaking, Xue Yi "got up" and flicked the bowstring, and said with a smile: "Senior nephew Huang, how do you look at this, I will find Senior Brother Sang to help you see this thing and feet, if it is really the long beard of the armor-bearded beast, everyone is very happy, and when you look back, you see Senior Brother Pomegranate, and then help Senior Brother Jiang ask for a half-sheet talisman?" ”
Huang Ming readily agreed.
Xue Yi squeezed out a smile and waved away, Huang Ming didn't think much about it anymore and walked quickly into the door.
After cautiously closing the door of the house, Huang Ming pushed open the small bed in the house, the bed was fully laid, at first glance there was no difference, Huang Ming squatted down and gently knocked on the green brick, until he knocked on a piece with a slightly different sound, after pushing back the wooden bed, Huang Ming sat on the bed and was stunned.
The Lu family who targeted him at the mountain gate was only aimed at the ninety-three Taiqing Order he held, as for the Lu family disciple named Lu Bingwan,
There's no idea of making a mortal enmity against yourself, at least judging from recent performances.
Mo He's test at the second level of the trial was only for Senior Sister Han Qiao, after all, no one would want to personally comprehend the blow of the pulse period, who would have thought that he would be punched into the water by Mo He, as for the few words of praise that he said to himself after sobering up, it was just a literal meaning.
After entering the forest, Liu Yuan and the others he met did not have anything to deduce, Liu Yuan did have the strength to step into the inner door, and his mind was careful enough, but his luck was a little worse. As for the clumsiness of the carnivorous forest, there are too many eyes, so it is better to deal with less.
In the class train hall, it is not only the master who selects the best disciples, but also the disciples who choose the hall and find the master by virtue of the order, the door master Liang Jun, and the deputy door master Li Jinyan, must not show a little bit of stomp in front of these two people, otherwise they will fall into a situation from which they will never recover. As for Tachibana Four's attitude towards himself in the Broken Bridge Collection, he seems to be angry with himself and doesn't know why this is the case, and he needs to think about it further.
In the bookkeeper, Fang Hua is a competent bookkeeper, who has lived for a long time, and it is inevitable that he prefers to usher in the send-off, and he is busy with the world; Needless to say, Xue Yi is a typical bad person; As for Jiang Mingxi, who has only met once, it is difficult to say at present, but Fang Hua swears that he must be superior in terms of strength compared to this person.
As for the newly recognized senior brother, Huang Ming was still willing to believe what he said, so he took the Yellow Lotus in Yihu in one fell swoop, and it was indeed the most quintessential piece of each Yellow Lotus's aura that he relied on his discernment, if he could really learn the cultivation method of the Thousand Petal Lotus Rune Array before Dong Jin went to Neize, it would definitely be a great help on his cultivation path.
But when he thought of Han Han's magical power to control everything on Yi Lake, Huang Ming was a little afraid, such a precious lotus, it was really just torn off one and turned into nothing, although Han Han said that it didn't matter, but he always felt that something was not right, especially the Zuo Ni mentioned at the end, what is it if it is not a beating? Forget it, I can only see what I can ask from Dong Jin's mouth.
After thinking about this, Huang Ming took out the talisman that Dong Jin handed over to him before leaving, took out a leftover spiritual rice, chewed it carefully, and waited for Dong Jin to knock on the door.
On the second watch, Huang Ming's door was knocked open, and it was Dong Jin who had changed back to the clothes of a monk in the ordinary rank period, Dong Jin shook the raindrops on his body, looked at Huang Ming who was sitting in front of the bed, and asked with a smile: "I didn't bother you, it was raining so hard outside, you actually got carried away and didn't cover the window." ”
"I've seen Senior Brother," Huang Ming got out of bed and bowed, "This rune primer is quite exquisite in the production methods of various talismans, I am thinking, if it is sold outside, it will definitely be a good price." ”
"Haha, that's nature." Dong Jin gently closed the door of the house, "It's just that this book won't flow out easily, and many outer disciples are outside shouldering the responsibility of thoroughly investigating such incidents." Once it is found that there is a Taiqing disciple who has passed on the exercises to the world, he will definitely trace back to the source and investigate to the end, and then the person who leaked it out will not be able to eat and walk away. This is also one of the foundations of the three major sects in the Northern Regions, and the best cultivators are eager to come to the mountain to learn the arts, which is where the enduring truth of our sect is passed down from generation to generation. After Pomegranate finished speaking, he glanced at the box beside Huang Ming, and his eyes lit up. But have you picked the yellow lotus petals? Let me see how it looks. ”
Huang Ming held the box to Dong Jin, and couldn't help but feel worried in his heart, after Dong Jin flicked off the insignificant lock spirit prohibition, he slowly opened the box, and couldn't help but snort softly.
"Huh? This, this is the Buddha lotus leader mentioned by the master? It's really extraordinary! Dong Jin was full of energy, put the ten-petal lotus on the table, turned his head and asked, "How did you see the underwater gravity array?" ”
"Senior brother, it's also a coincidence, originally on the Buddha lotus, there was no dragonfly standing on it, I was lucky, although it was only for a moment, it was still captured by the afterglow of my eyes, the palm-sized green fly only stopped on the Buddha lotus for a blink of an eye, and then disappeared, no matter how ignorant the junior brother is, he can also see some clues."
"I never thought that there would be such a thing, and it can be regarded as a chance for the junior brother, tell me, how did the senior brother of Buddha Lotus choose?" Dong Jin put down the box of Buddha lotus petals, turned his head, and his eyes were full of smiles.
"Don't dare to deceive Senior Brother," Huang Ming finally decided to muster up the courage and explain the situation to Dong Jin, "I turned the few qi in my body into a ball, rushed to my eyes together, and held a spirit bead with my left hand to absorb the qi machine, and chose the Buddha lotus petal with the most abundant spiritual energy among them. ”
Huang Ming pondered these words for a long time, not only did not mention the withering of the Buddha Lotus, but also made the details clear, anyway, it was you Dong Jin who asked me to carefully choose the Buddha Lotus, and did not mention that the Yellow Lotus would be wiped out, no wonder I Uncle Bai Minyu.
"But the Buddha lotus came down from the lotus canopy, and even the petals and branches withered, right?" Dong Jin smiled bitterly, "You don't have to hide it from me. ”
"Senior brother knows everything..."
The room was silent, neither of them took the initiative to open this mouth first, or Huang Ming pulled Dong Jin, who was caught in reminiscence, back, and said softly: "This matter starts with me, and I am willing to be punished as a junior brother." ”
"Our master is a famous array master." Dong Jin sighed, didn't answer Huang Ming's words, added some lamp oil to the wick in the oil lamp in front of the table, and continued: "Although the master has no vision, he is quite good at the formation, even so, he can only use the cultivation in the middle of the vein, which can only drive the fourteen-petal lotus. It's just that the senior brother seems to have gone crazy when choosing the lotus petals, and destroyed a large number of Buddha lotuses, which made the lotus pond that was not too big even more precarious, and later verified that the right body, the senior brother Zuo Ni who destroyed the lotus pond, the real identity is actually a demon clan, or a water descendant who is proficient in water escape, at the moment when the lotus pond is about to be destroyed in pieces, Mo He noticed that something was wrong and shrank into inches to the pool, without the slightest hesitation, and then made a dead hand to that Zuo Ni, I didn't expect this Zuo Ni to be a master of the Hemolysis Realm who was not weak, After dispersing the Mohe supernatural power, he fled away at a very fast speed, fortunately, there is our Taiqing mountain protector in Yi Lake to worship Yi Jianghai, and before Zuo Ni left the surface of Yi Lake, he was turned into a piece of blood by an unknown divine power of Yi Jianghai. ”
"It's just that afterwards, Hu Ye, the then owner of my mountain, and his master were shouted to the lake by the old Yi, and they didn't reprimand them much, but they just said that Zuo Ni and his feet are a metamorphosed mandarin fish essence of the Autumn Mountain species, and they have their presence in Bei Size, which is barely one of the big clans, and this mandarin fish essence surnamed Zuo did not die, but used a secret technique that he had only heard of before, and was actually the first time he saw it, and he escaped a catastrophe, but the cost of this demon is extremely high, and the fall is inevitable.
"Soon after Uncle Hu was in Yihu, he asked Li Jinyan, who had just been promoted to the deputy mountain master of Taiqing, to go to Neize to find Nazuo Ni for revenge, the latter couldn't be the master, so he went to find the Taishang elder Jia Honghu, but Jia Laozu was in retreat, and didn't pay attention to the trivial things of these juniors, Li Jinyan couldn't find Liang Jun who went to the Huagai Continent to take an idea, so he could only put the matter on hold, only less than ten years later, only you and my master returned to Taiqing Mountain with a pomegranate tree seedling... Soon because he was too badly injured, he died of depression. ”
"There is no such thing as punishment or punishment, just a pond of lotus. What the symbol mountain lacks now is the people who will pass on the torch from generation to generation, not those dead things, Senior Brother Huang, from Ming'er, I have been on duty in the ancestral mountain hall for a month, except for the six hours that must be left there, the rest of the time, you can go to the grass trace pavilion behind the ancestral mountain to wait for me, we will gradually cultivate the way of the talisman, and when you are ready enough, you can gradually control the most basic magical power in the eye purification technique, senior brother, I will hand over the practice of the thousand-petal lotus to you. ”
Huang Ming looked at Dong Jin's deep eyes and nodded heavily.
At noon the next day, Huang Ming took the talisman to get started, and took the lead to go to the back mountain, according to the two outer disciples on duty in the morning, the grass trace pavilion is a place for monks above the rank of the vein period to learn the way, and the grass trails on the pavilion pillar have long been blurred, and the disciples of the enlightenment period speculate that it is an opening secret book left by a certain senior, but the grass trace pavilion has two uncles of the hemolysis realm left behind all the year round, and the two seniors of the hemolysis realm have strange temperaments, and the disciples of the ordinary enlightenment period cannot go forward.
After only two incense sticks, Huang Ming walked along the stream to the grass trace pavilion, which was the entrance, and there were really two gray-haired men sitting in the pavilion feasting, pushing cups and changing lamps. The two of them had already heard Huang Ming's footsteps, but they didn't pay attention to it, the one who was half short just paused when he raised his glass, but it was the old man with a tiger's back and thick eyebrows and thin eyes who frowned.
"Junior Huang Ming, I have seen two old-timers, and the master Fu descended to Dong Jin to let the disciples come here to wait, and I never wanted to disturb the two seniors who drank Yaxing." Huang Ming saluted respectfully after clenching his fists, and his body was slightly owed.
"Let's go in, Brother Dong Jin's estimate is almost there," the old man with a slightly shorter head glanced at Huang Ming, good guy, a disciple in the enlightenment period, his footwork is indeed not cheesy, I heard that it is the new disciple of the eye? It's really more popular than people. Thinking that he didn't pass the three levels and six formations back then, he became an outer disciple, and he traveled in a circle before he luckily stepped into the hemolysis realm, who would have thought that he would be almost killed by the one surnamed Liu when he entered Neize for the first time, and that kid was less than fifty years old. Since then, he has not entered the inner ze for half a step, and has come to Zushan to recuperate for more than 20 years, but he is also at ease.
The slightly taller man was originally the master of Xiugou in the southwest corner of Taiqing, and had an excellent relationship with Xun Guozhong in the northwest corner. Without a disciple, how can he have the face to stay there with a bare-rod sect master? As soon as the new outer disciple heard that he was going to be "assigned" to Xiugou, which one was not transferred away by the use of crying father and mother? Simply this old man named Gui Fengzhen closed the door and came to the ancestral mountain to retire, and even the meaningful bell tower on the mountain was taken care of.
Back then, he was also a hemolytic realm with extremely hard fists, but he was Taiqing who led the teacher, and he was watched by the supervisor before Dong Jin for many years.
That inspector is none other than Liang Jun.
