After Zhao Xiao's dazzling operation, he slowly adjusted his true qi, then raised his eyes to look at Zheng Tunan, and said with a pleasant face: "How?" Are you satisfied? ”

Zheng Tunan's head and face were suffocated, and he couldn't say a word, Zhao Xiao flicked his sleeves, and the smoke in the hall changed and outlined into a talisman. With a flick of his fingers, the smoke cloud fume shot into Zheng Tunan's chest without warning.

Liang Dongyou's face changed, but he was shocked by Zhao Xiao's methods, and he didn't have time to come to the rescue. But Zheng Tunan was beaten by the smoke charm, but he was not injured at all, he opened his mouth and coughed a few times, and his swollen head and face eased a lot.

"Resentment and resentment are not good in the long run. I made my own opinion, evacuated Zheng Gongzi's qi and blood, and asked Liang to coach not to pursue it. Zhao Xiao stood with his hands in his hands, with a detached demeanor.

Liang Dongyou glanced at Zheng Tunan, and did not speak with a gloomy face. Zhao Xiao looked around at the rest of the Chongxuan Pavilion monks: "There are only three subjects to pass the school, as long as you can pass one, you can come and go at the gate of the Jinding Division." If you can't, please cherish your appearance and don't damage the reputation of Chongxuanguan and Liang Guoshi. ”

In fact, when Zhao Huang personally demonstrated the subjects of the school examination, no one present dared to question it, and the higher the cultivation, the more he understood how superb Zhao Xiao's methods were.

"Look at the empty book, it's already on the air line. It can be seen that Zhao Huang has extraordinary attainments on the way to the talisman. Liang Dongyou secretly said in his heart: "Then it is not difficult to move the talisman into the fire and prepare the incense, but he can also refine the arrow with the talisman at the same time, not only must he be distracted and used for two purposes, but he must also be particularly proficient in the use of fire......

Not to mention how Liang Dongyou and the other Chongxuan Pavilion monks were shocked and thoughtful, Zhao Xiao sighed a little in his heart.

The three subject examination schools set up by Fang Cai, Zhao Xiao is indeed based on himself, as for whether the threshold is high or low, in fact, he is not sure.

However, Zhao Huang also realized that the refinement of the cultivation realm did greatly improve the practice of magic.

In the matter of the Qi Drawing Talisman, Zhao Huang gradually achieved it soon after he came into contact with the Spirit Flute, and he practiced the Nine Palaces Shouyi Method. But like Fang Cai, he directly transported the red light of the Mingtang Jade Mirror, and relied on the eyes to condense the qi machine into a talisman seal, it was the first time, and even Zhao Xiao himself was a little incredible.

And in the fractal scatter talisman, which is used to refine incense medicine and sacrifice arrows, Zhao Xiao secretly played a clever trick. For example, turning the dredging into incense, it is actually relying on the Danding furnace fire to blend the medicinal properties, skipping the steps of collecting the furnace fire and kneading the Dansan, and directly burning it into incense in the furnace.

As for the sacrificial refining arrows, Zhao Xiao simply did it. Without careful adjustment, the effect of the spell almost destroyed the arrow on the spot, and Zhao Xiao just seized the opportunity to throw it directly before the arrow exploded on its own, penetrating the armor.

This performance looks very exciting, but there are deficiencies and deficiencies in it, only Zhao Xiao himself understands, and fortunately these people are bluffed.

If it weren't for Zhao Xiao's cultivation after witnessing Tie Gong's ascension, Fang Cai's three-in-one trick would really not be playable.

Of course, the accumulation of cultivation in the past cannot be ignored. After all, Zhao Xiao took out the subjects to do the school examination, and he was the most proficient in them. Only true skills that cannot be ignored can calm the scene.

"Isn't there any Taoist friend who has come to try the examination school for sacrificial artifacts?" Zhao Xiao took out a few arrows and motioned to the servants outside the hall to set the dummy back up.

It is estimated that they were frightened by Zhao Huang's hand, and many Chongxuan Pavilion monks retreated. Zhao Xiao looked around, didn't bother to ask, and was about to ask someone to remove things, when a voice came weakly from the corner:

"I—I'd like to give it a try."

Zhao Xiao raised his eyes and looked, it was the man in Tsing Yi who had stopped Zheng Tunan before. He looked weak, Zheng Tunan glared at him when he heard this, and the man in Tsing Yi instinctively shrank his head, but he still stepped forward stubbornly.

"Haven't asked yet?" Zhao Xiao handed the arrow to the other party.

The man in Tsing Yi lowered his head and took the arrow: "Chongxuan Pavilion, Zheng Siyuan." ”

"Tu Nan and Si Yuan are symmetrical." Zhao Xiao said secretly in his heart, and then said: "Please feel free, but keep in mind that the Jin Ding priest is not a cultivator refining a magic weapon for self-defense, and it should not take time for a long time." ”

Zheng Siyuan nodded slightly, then placed the arrow branch horizontally on the index finger of both hands, his lips opened and closed slightly, and the true qi spread on the surface of the arrow branch with the sound of the mantra.

Zhao Xiao's face was expressionless, but he secretly praised in his heart: "This Zheng Siyuan, who looks humble and timid, actually thinks about it." ”

In the examination school of sacrificial artifacts, Zhao Xiao did not give more requirements, and it was all up to each person to play. Everyone else was intimidated by Zhao Huang's book talisman sacrifice arrow, but they forgot that the most simple and simple cloth qi sacrifice refining was also feasible.

If you are successful in breathing and refining qi, even if you don't know any advanced and wonderful methods, you can still find out how much you can figure out this kind of thing.

And this Zheng Siyuan performed spells behind the backs of the people in Chongxuan Pavilion, and the sound of the spell was inaudible, as if he was deliberately avoiding other fellow disciples.

However, Zheng Siyuan's technique could not hide Zhao Xiao's Yingxuan Zhaojing technique, and he noticed that the aura flowing on the arrow branch was the shape of an arrow, which was somewhat close to his usual arrow technique.

After a while, Zheng Siyuan completed his sacrifice and handed the arrow back to Zhao Xiao.

"Oh? Why don't you just throw an arrow? Zhao Xiao asked.

Zheng Siyuan replied respectfully: "Deacon Zhao just said that ordinary soldiers only have mortal iron blades in their hands. If you want to come to the magic object made by the priest of Jinding, it is for ordinary soldiers. They don't have the power to cultivate, they can only rely on their strength to open a bow and shoot arrows, if I throw arrows and break the armor myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam. ”

"Hah!" Zhao Xiao laughed, this Zheng Siyuan not only broke the flaws of his own talent, but also understood the true intention of the school subject, which really surprised Zhao Xiao and was happy.

Zhao Xiao took the arrow and said, "Okay, I'll find a soldier to come over." ”

"No hassle!" At this time, An Yanghou stepped forward and shook his robe: "I also studied archery when I was young, so I'll try it myself." ”

Zhao Xiao handed the arrow to the Marquis of Anyang, and a servant hurriedly sent a pair of bows, and the Marquis of Anyang took the arrow and opened the bow with a neutral posture. However, Zhao Xiao noticed that he seemed to be a few inches off, and was about to open his mouth to warn, when the arrow sounded off.

The arrow burst through the air and hit the dummy outside the hall with precision. The arrows easily pierced through the triple armor, and the clusters of arrows even peeked out from the other side.

The servants outside the hall brought the armored dummy, and it took a while to pull out the arrows, lift the iron armor, and dissect the dummy, and the straw mat filled inside was stirred into slag, which was even more powerful than the scorch marks left by Zhao Xiao's previous Chiming rocket.

The expressions of the onlookers were different, and Zhao Xiao was quite surprised, because he saw that Zheng Siyuan's method of sacrificing arrows was unique. And Liang Dongyou couldn't help but look at Zheng Siyuan suspiciously, as if he didn't expect this person to have such a ability.

"How?" An Yanghou asked with interest.

"Master Hou shoots." Liang Dongyou replied without yin or yang.

"Nope." An Yanghou immediately explained: "I deliberately pointed at the deviation, but I still shot." ”

Liang Dongyou frowned and was silent, Zhao Huang twisted the arrow branch in his hand and nodded and said: "The arrow branch has been sacrificed, and it can follow the shooter's mind, as long as the mind is concentrated, it can be shot." ”

"Shoot everything? Could this be the Tianxia Dynasty's "Fuguo Su Yu Sacrifice"? Immediately, the monks of the Chongxuan Pavilion whispered.

"It's impossible, after the battle of slaying the dragon, "Fuguo Su Ji Sacrifice" was regarded as the foundation of the country by Youxiong Country, and non-clan children were not allowed to study it. Zheng Siyuan is the son of a concubine, it is a big luck to be able to worship in Chongxuan Pavilion, and he can still learn "Fuguo Su Sacrifice"? ”

"I didn't expect this Zheng Siyuan to be more clever than his brother-in-law, Zheng Tunan has lost all the face of the Jiujiang Zheng family this time."

"The Jiujiang Zheng family also relied on the predecessors who had rescued Liang Guoshi, so they reluctantly squeezed into the Chongxuan Pavilion. If it weren't for this kindness, people like Zheng Tunan would also deserve to stay in Chongxuan Pavilion? ”

Zhao Xiao listened to the group of people whispering and making fun, but he didn't have the slightest hint of schadenfreude. These people looked down on Zheng Tunan, but they didn't pass the Jinding Division's examination, they were purely fifty steps and a hundred steps.

"Congratulations to this fellow Daoist." Zhao Xiao got up and said to Zheng Siyuan: "This method of sacrificing arrows is quite exquisite, I will have to ask you for more advice when I have time later." ”

Zheng Siyuan said repeatedly: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Zhao Xiao looked at Zheng Siyuan, and inexplicably thought of himself not long ago, who was also like this after learning from a green shirt, and he also cowered, inferiority and weakness when he met a big man.

"Okay, who else would you like to try?" Zhao Xiao looked back at everyone and interrupted the whispering.

There was silence in the front hall, and the remaining monks of the Chongxuan Pavilion were not interested. It's not that they're afraid of Zhao Xiao, but they just think that Jin Dingsi is not the kind of idle yamen, maybe after coming in, they will have to sacrifice magic objects, take care of the fire, and write endless talismans all day long. The busy days were unbearable, and everyone began to retreat.

Anyang Hou said: "It is our luck that a small yamen like Jin Dingsi can be favored by six people from Chongxuan Yuke!" Brother Dongyou, I want to thank you! ”

Liang Dongyou arched his hand and said: "The life of the first seat, do your best." ”

After some conversation, Liang Dongyou did not stay long, and left with the rest of the Chongxuan Pavilion monks, while Zheng Siyuan, Jing Shi and other six people, accompanied by Zhao Xiao, toured to learn about the eastern and western courtyards and various affairs of the Jinding Division.

After dealing with these, Anyang Hou found Zhao Xiao, and the two had a private conversation.

"I didn't expect that there were still six people who passed the school, and it seems that the Chongxuan Pavilion has not decayed to the point where outsiders say." Zhao Xiao said.

"As the saying goes, a rotten ship also has three catties of nails, not to mention that the big ship of Chongxuanguan has not sunk yet." Anyang Hou said with a smile: "But the nephew still has the ability, if it weren't for you to show the magic method and suppress those children of the family who are humble and secretive, Liang Dongyou is afraid that he will be in trouble on the spot." ”

"Uncle Shi knows this Liang Dongyou?"

"Of course I do." An Yanghou said: "I remember that he was the nephew of Liang Guoshi, and the generation suffered serious losses in the Five Kingdoms War, and those who survived safely were either the remnants of a hundred battles, or they were incompetent from the beginning."

Liang Dongyou was once captured by Wu Zhu of Jiuli Kingdom, broke the tendons of his hands and feet, and his internal organs were used to raise Gu. Later, even if he was saved, he was also abolished, so he stayed in the Lung Mountain as a coach. Including Zheng Tunan's father, who was also a powerful general back then, who would have expected that future generations would be so incompetent. ”

Zhao Xiao said: "I think that Zheng Siyuan is good, and it is worth cultivating." ”

An Yanghou nodded and said: "Indeed, Zheng Siyuan was bullied by his elders, if he can get an official and a half position in the Jinding Division, there is no need to look up to others." If this person can be trained well, it will be a good help. ”

Talking about the Zheng family, Zhao Huang couldn't help but think of the previous encounter with He Dangguan in Longzangpu, and his family heirloom Jie Wei Jue was occupied by the Zheng family and not returned. Considering that the Marquis of Anyang was able to "trick" from the Jiujiang Zheng family to come to the Xuanpu Jade Book, maybe he could also get his hands on Xie Weijue.

It's just that it's a little hard to say this, He Dangguan and himself are just Pingshui, and the Marquis of Anyang is in a high position, so I'm afraid he won't contribute to a down-and-out swordsman. And now Zhao Huang is still begging people to find the true yuan lock, and it is not appropriate to ask for too much.

"It's that Jing Shi, what do you think?" An Yanghou asked again.

Zhao Xiao said while thinking: "This woman doesn't talk much, and I can't judge it well." But she does have the ability to draw qi calligraphy, and I see that she walks lightly and rhythmically, and it is estimated that she also has swordsmanship and martial arts. ”

An Yanghou shook his head: "What I asked is not this, but what is the purpose of this person to come to Jinding Division." ”

Zhao Xiao was puzzled: "She is not a family with the four surnames of the immortal blood, this kind of person is not allowed to be reused in the Chongxuan Pavilion, and it is not strange to come to the Jinding Division to find another future, right?" ”

In the Chongxuan Pavilion, there are not only the children of the four surnamed families, but also other pavilions who have switched to the past monks through the first recommendation, and some monks of the sect whose inheritance has withered are also attached to the Chongxuan Pavilion, or they rely on their in-laws to worship in it.

Anyang Hou said: "I'm just worried that this Jing Shi will be bad for you." ”

Zhao Huang frowned and asked: "The Jinding Division is a government office established by the order of the lord of the country, if there is any fight here, death and injury, it will only be true, and it will not be beneficial to Chongxuan Pavilion and Liang Guoshi." ”

An Yanghou smiled: "If it is not good for you and Jin Dingsi, why fight and kill?" Chongxuanguan sent people to intervene in affairs and better control the Jinding Division. Or waste spiritual materials, or shirk duties, sacrifice and artifacts to increase the loss, refining pills for private embezzlement, dragging simple and easy things to the Year of the Monkey, and even holding the government office, and so on is equivalent to deposing the Jinding Division, which is also a way. ”

When Zhao Xiao heard this, he was secretly suspicious in his heart, it seemed that he had thought about things simply before.

"But I also expected them to do this, and fortunately, you set the threshold for the school entrance examination high, and six people still can't do anything big." Anyang Hou also said: "I have already discussed with Zhang Gong, a group of Huaiying Pavilion monks will come in a few days, you have acquaintances to help you, and it is much easier to get things done." ”

Zhao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, when he came to Dongshengdu, the most unaccustomed thing was to be alone, if he had an acquaintance by his side, he would have more confidence.

"Also, it's necessary to arrange some guards for you." An Yanghou said.

Zhao Xiao smiled and said, "Uncle Shi is kind, but you don't have to. I'm not powerless to protect myself. ”

Anyang Hou waved his hand and said: "You cultivators have magic skills, but in a place like Dongshengdu, if it is not necessary, you should not do it yourself." You have to keep a few guard swordsmen by your side, who can block those unsightly goods, and let them do it for you when necessary. Otherwise, one day it would be rumored on the streets of Dongshengdu that Deacon Zhao of the Jinding Division was fighting with people, which is really ...... Loss of grace. ”

Zhao Xiao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this reason, but he suddenly thought of He Dangguan, so he said: "My nephew knows a swordsman in Dongshengdu, so I will take the time to contact him later." ”
