"Teacher, did you promise him?"

In the Jinding Division, Zhao Xiao and Zhang Duanjing were alone. After learning that the teacher planned to assist Liang Tao, Zhao almost thought that he was dreaming.

"I'm not mistaken, am I? Could it be that you said this for the sake of perfunctory Liang Guoshi? Zhao Xiao asked again.

Zhang Duanjing shook his head and said: "I don't agree with the theory of the Tao of the world, but Liang Tao wants you to help arrange the rituals and rituals, which may be able to ensure the peace of the family and the country for a long time." ”

Zhao Xiao muttered in his heart, in fact, when Zhang Duanjing planned to meet Liang Tao in person, he had a bottom in his heart, and decided that the teacher would come forward to reject Liang Tao for him.

But the result was unexpected, Zhang Duanjing actually agreed to Liang Tao. With Zhao Xiao's understanding of the teacher, he has always disliked the immortal blood and family of Chongxuan Pavilion, and he has repeatedly confronted Liang Guoshi in the court without giving in, which is also known to the government and the public.

However, Zhang Duanjing's attitude, although Zhao Xiao was a little unable to react, was also reasonable. Zhao Xiao is also suspicious of Liang Tao's human Taoism, but it is not impossible to use scientific rituals to protect the country and the people.

The only question now is how to deal with Liang Tao, a national teacher who is about to achieve immortal path.

"Do you think it's possible?" Zhang Duanjing asked.

Zhao Xiao pondered and said: "It is by no means easy to control the heaven and earth qi, ghosts, gods and spirits of Huaxu Kingdom with scientific rituals and rituals, but it is not completely impossible. I tried it in Starfall County, but at that time, I did it in a hurry, and even with the help of the City God, there were still many incompleteness. It might be better if I chose a certain county and asked me to repeat the verification. ”

Zhang Duanjing nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll find a way to do this." ”

Zhao Xiao saw that the teacher accepted it so easily, and he didn't want to say anything more. Zhang Duanjing said: "The matter of the law ceremony should not be quiet, you should concentrate on dealing with the Jin Ding Division for now." ”

"Even Anyang Hou can't know?" Zhao Xiao asked.

"Not bad."

"Got it." Zhao Xiao saw that the teacher was serious and did not dare to be negligent.

"Bring me the Relief Jue." Zhang Duanjing said again.

Zhao Xiao handed out the wine jue and asked, "I tried it before, although it can gather some clear qi, but it is far less than in the hands of Liang Guoshi, which can condense the high heaven clear qi and turn it into immortal brew." ”

Zhang Duanjing held the crystal wine jue and looked at it for a moment, and said: "This thing is indeed a magic weapon of the immortal family, but your cultivation mana is not enough to show its wonders. Even if it is used with a spell, it is only a trick to clear the qi, and there is still a lack of help to breathe, at best it is used to ignite the rune ink. ”

"I don't know which immortal family refined this magic weapon? Hook up the breath and breathe out the cultivation of the truth, and actually make it look like a wine lord. Zhao Xiao asked.

"I don't know. The immortal family may not be famous in the annals of history, not to mention that since ancient times, most of the immortal cultivators have been hidden and unpredictable. Zhang Duanjing raised his finger at Xie Weijue and wrote a few empty strokes.

Zhao Xiao couldn't help but wonder: "But Liang Guoshi doesn't seem to be such a person, he doesn't talk about the hidden mountains and forests, there are him in nine out of ten gongs in Huaxu Kingdom." If he is just a powerful minister, it would be fine, but he is obviously a profound cultivator, and he is only one step away from ascending to immortality, shouldn't such a master take seclusion and seclusion to the world? ”

"Do you know why immortal cultivators want to retreat from the world?" Zhang Duanjing asked.

Zhao Huang said: "No matter how mystical the trick, it is based on tranquility, which is the first essence of the Xuanmen Immortal Dao. The main purpose of seclusion is to give away the dust and avoid the distractions of the world, so that you can meditate and breathe, watch and listen. Not to mention that the city and the market in the world are inevitably polluted, and it is very inconvenient to breathe out clean air. ”

"Indeed, for those who have just glimpsed the wonderful method of the Immortal Family, if they are unwilling to stay away from the world, they will inevitably be distracted and tired. Zhang Duanjing said: "But this is only the first step, if the quiet kung fu is deep, the ordinary mundane disturbance can not move his heart, and walking in the world can also increase experience and accumulate merit." ”

"Throughout the ages, there have indeed been many immortal cultivators who have been in and out of the red dust." Zhao Xiao said: "But the vast majority of them still choose to hide in the mountains and forests, and there are only a few like Liang Guoshi." I read that in the notes of the ancients, there were some monks who took the initiative to go down the mountain and enter the world, but they were robbed and died. ”

"Those who are good and quiet, there is no need to say much." Zhang Duanjing explained: "The so-called concealment is to leave room for yourself. You have been in Dongshengdu for a while, and you feel that you can't do it, that is, there is no room for it. Because you are always visible to others, your words and deeds are bound by the world's conditions. ”

Zhao Huang asked: "Of course, there are constraints of the world's conditions and principles, but what if I forcibly break through it regardless of everything?" ”

"When you assume 'desperate,' you're having scruples." Zhang Duanjing stared at Zhao Huang and said: "Standing in the world, everything you do will be angry, and everything you do will be implicated." The person you care about is either the law of the country, or the eyes of others, or your own expectations, or the blessings and misfortunes.

Dongshengdu is a prosperous place in the world, and the hooks of the world are destined to be very much, as a deacon of the Jinding Division, there are fellow monks who are jealous and hateful, and there are enemies and demons outside. And when you demonstrated the merits of scientific rituals in Xingluo County, you will inevitably be paid attention to by Liang Tao. ”

Zhao Xiao somewhat understood: "No wonder teacher, you always said that I was flamboyant and ridiculous in the past, and I didn't understand the meaning before, but now I finally have learned a lesson." Alas! If you knew this, it would be better to hide in the Huaiying Pavilion obediently, where would there be these things now? ”

Zhang Duanjing asked: "If you didn't have a personal experience, would you really stay in the hall obediently?" ”

Zhao Xiao gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid it's still like before, looking forward to going out and running around all day long." ”

"The magic of seclusion does not lie in hiding in the mountains and forests, if you don't have the heart of seclusion, you can show off your magic and show off your qi in the mountains and forests, and it will still attract the snooping of demons and monsters." Zhang Duanjing said: "A clever hermit, even if he is in the market court, the world does not feel that it is very different. ”

"Is it hidden in the court?" Zhao Xiao sighed: "It's a pity that I can't do it." ”

"I can't do it either." Zhang Duanjing returned the Relief Relief Jue to Zhao Xiao, and sighed rarely: "Some things are often realized only after experiencing them personally, but there is no way back from their own situation." ”

Zhao Xiao was slightly stunned, and then said: "It's not that the teacher can't retreat, but he doesn't want to retreat, right?" ”

"Why?" Zhang Duanjing asked.

"Most of the middle school pavilions are respected by the Chongxuan Pavilion, if you want to retreat and join the same stream with Liang Guoshi, there is no need to have a hard top everywhere." Zhao Xiao smiled bitterly: "In the final analysis, teacher, you still hope to benefit the people, and you can't get used to the Chongxuan Pavilion." ”

"Profit? Less. Zhang Duanjing said: "It is not easy to find a way to survive. ”

"Teacher, can I help you?" Zhao Xiao asked.

Zhang nodded and said, "You're already helping me." ”

Compared with Liang Tao's attention to himself, Zhao Xiao has always hoped to win the recognition of his teachers. Now that he can conspire with the teacher, Zhao Xiao feels more relieved than the thousands of compliments and praises from others.

After Zhang Duanjing left, Zhao Xiao played with Xie Weijue, hiding in the room alone and snickering. Until Lingxiao appeared and came out, he said indifferently:

"Zhang Duanjing is really good at teaching disciples and teaching the Fa."

"Of course, that's my teacher." Zhao Xiao patted his chest.

Ling Xiao glanced at it: "Are you boasting or praising people?" ”

"People in the world often say that a famous teacher produces a high apprentice, and the higher my achievement, doesn't it prove that my teacher is skilled?" Zhao Xiao said with a smile.

"Compared with Liang Tao, Zhang Duanjing may not be more enlightened." Ling Xiao looked detached and commented: "Liang Tao is not a hermit, but he can easily deal with the world's ordinary conditions, and the two have different instruments after all. You should know that there is a difference between hiding and avoiding. Those who have talent and ability but do not show it can be hidden; Those who are incompetent and incompetent and flee in fear of difficulties are to avoid them. Not everyone is qualified to say that they are hermits, and the incompetent escape into the mountains and forests are no different from beasts. ”

Zhao Xiao pouted and was silent, and Lingxiao said: "Those who hold the measure of one family cannot be the whole family." Those who hold the measure of a country cannot become a country. Lifting weights with all your strength can't be used. Liang Taozhi is in the world, and his vision has long exceeded the Huaxu Kingdom in the corner of the eastern soil, and he even prepares for future disputes and chaos in advance.

Even Zhang Duanjing had to submit to it this time. In fact, it is impossible for him to reject Liang Tao for you, in case he can't participate in it, the Huaiying Pavilion will have no place in the future. Liang Tao used a scheming, and calculated the thoughts of your master and apprentice, and took out the name of righteousness, so that you could not avoid it. ”

"It's a good deal." Zhao Xiao sighed.

The spirit flute floated in the air, and the clothes gently brushed over the Relief Relief Jue in Zhao Xiao's hand, and Zhao Xiao barely felt the touch.

"It's unique." Lingxiao's face was cold: "It is called Jiujue, it is really like a tripod vessel, and the clear qi of the immortal spirit is condensed into a refining jade liquid, which can be regarded as a new way for water alchemy." ”

"You're saying that the Lord of Relief is actually an alchemy furnace?" Zhao Xiao asked.

"The form is different, but the metaphysics is the same." Ling Xiao said: "This lord does not use hardware and eight stones, plants and trees as medicines, but directly collects qi and regulates it. If it is expected to be correct, this Jue is refined to confirm the work of creation after achieving the Immortal Dao, and it is conceived with the intention that it is similar to the True Yuan Lock. ”

Zhao Xiao asked curiously, "Do you know the immortal family who refined this lord?" ”

"Judging from the shape of the wine lord, the person who refines the weapon obviously entered the Dao and cultivated the truth long after I became an immortal." Ling Xiao said: "What's more, this immortal family seems to leave Xie Wei Jue in the world and let it be natural, and it is estimated that there will be no disciples to pass it on." ”

Zhao Huang said: "Xie Wei Jue can hook the clear qi, even if it is weak and shallow, use the clear qi to turn the pure water, accompany the wood and yellow essence, and serve for a long time to cultivate the five Tibets, even I don't know this, the ancestors of the He family estimate that there are not many masters." ”

"Condensing immortal brewing and igniting talisman water, I'm afraid it's a waste of this treasure." Ling Xiao said: "It's rare to have this immortal magic weapon, but it can be arranged in the Void Mu God Array." ”

"That formation that leads to clear qi and cultivates the divine soul?" Zhao Huang asked, "Didn't you say that you wanted to use Guishan Xuanyan or Kunlun jade as the formation pedestal?" ”

"The formation of the spiritual material pedestal is because of the lack of pure qi in the world." Ling Xiao said: "But now that there is a Relief Lord, there is no need to worry." If your cultivation is not enough to give full play to the magic weapon, then you can use the help of the formation to bathe your soul and refine your body. ”

"Am I running now?" Zhao Xiao couldn't help but say: "Originally, I couldn't look forward to any cultivation blessed land and rare spiritual materials, but now I have all of them, and there is a lot of surplus. ”

"Fortune trumps talent, but it's often fleeting." Ling Xiao said: "Don't forget, now these blessed land manors and immortal magic weapons are all rewarded by others. When times change, it's likely that they won't be yours anymore. ”

"Understood." Zhao Xiao looked at Xie Weijue: "Liang Guoshi can be so domineering and rampant, in the final analysis, his cultivation mana is high enough. ”

"If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and you can't rush to cultivate mana." Ling Xiao said: "It's good to concentrate on cultivation, but if you are too heavy and force the results, you may be effective in the short term, but you will leave long-term hidden dangers, especially in your current realm." ”

……

Zhang Duanjing stepped on the five-colored clouds and slowly fell, and came to the library pavilion in the Huaiying Pavilion, and several library students saw the first one coming, and bowed down.

Nodding his head, Zhang Duanjing went straight into the depths of the underground of the Library Pavilion, and a white-haired old man leaned on a cane and fell asleep, guarding outside the stone gate where the prohibition was imposed.

"You're finally back." The white-haired old man raised his eyelids: "The little girl inside is not very good-tempered, be careful of being cut after entering." ”

"Got it." Zhang Duanjing's face was slightly gloomy, he raised his hand to pinch the trick, and lifted several prohibitions one after another, and the stone door slowly opened.

Inside, the view is not dim, but an underground library, hanging cloud beam stone lamps everywhere, and a few straw men pick up the books and bamboo slips on the ground and put them back in their original places.

As soon as Zhang Duanjing stood still, an ancient clumsy long sword was placed on his neck, and the person holding the sword behind him did not wear a face, revealing a heroic woman's face, with a cold and sharp eyebrow between his eyebrows.

"I said that Ah Huang is not allowed to have too close contacts with Liang Tao." The sword-wielding woman said: "But you have intensified, not only let him serve in the capital, but also put him in the whirlpool of the court, do you think you have lived too long?" ”

"I know you care about Zhao Xiao, lest he be in danger." Zhang Duanjing's tone was straightforward: "But he can't be safe forever, especially now that the situation in Huaxu Kingdom is becoming more and more dangerous, he is destined to be appointed." And whether it is me, Zhao Wei, Ziliang, or even Zhao Huang himself, I don't want to be incompetent and useless. ”

"Towering giant trees, because of their usefulness, have been cut down by axes." The sword-wielding woman scolded, "Do you have to involve Ah Huang in it? I have the divine sword in hand, why don't I delay killing Liang Tao! ”

"Now is not the time!" Zhang Duanjing was rarely annoyed, his true anger suddenly burst out, and the underground library reverberated with waves, blowing the scrolls and flying, and the straw man was lying in wait.

The sword-wielding woman trembled slightly, and Zhang Duanjing restrained her temperament: "Liang Tao wants to kill, but not now." He wants to do a big thing, which is related to the future life of Huaxu Pu public, and Zhao Xiao and I will also participate in it. ”

"What do you mean by that?" The sword-wielding woman asked, "How long do you have to calculate?" ”

"After the Starfall County confrontation, I wouldn't bet all my odds on a single Excalibur. This matter has to be Zhao Xiao, and now only he can gain Liang Tao's trust. Zhang Duanjing said: "Similarly, only Zhao Xiao can prepare for us under Liang Tao's eyes!" ”
