Chapter 43: The Hall of Merit
"Uh, that. Deacon Zhuang, please stay for a while, there is another thing I would like to ask Deacon Zhuang. That, that, how can I exchange forging materials and cultivation resources in the pavilion? ”
Seeing that Zhuang Jianbing was about to leave, Yang Ning hurriedly spoke up, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, and asked the question in his heart with some embarrassment.
"Oh, that's the problem. Hehe...... Forging materials and cultivation resources are all exchanged in the Hall of Merit, and they all need to be exchanged through merit points. And Keqing's treatment is a little different from that of the disciples of this pavilion, except for the hundred merit points obtained when he first joined, he only received the benefit of issuing five Qi Enhancement Pills every month, and swallowing and refining can only increase a little bit of aura, which does not help much for cultivation, unlike formal disciples who can get more cultivation resources for free, and other resources need to be exchanged for Keqing's own ability. ”
"However, I heard the pavilion master mention that Yang Keqing seems to have killed a lot of demon beasts on the way to the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion, and some of the materials on their bodies are good alchemy and forging materials, you can take out some of them to exchange for success points or other materials and cultivation resources in the Hall of Merit. Tomorrow, on the way to the Library Pavilion, we can stop by and go to the Hall of Merit first. ”
Knowing Yang Ning's background, Zhuang Jianbing understands his current predicament. However, when Tang Xiong told about their experience of coming to the sect, Zhuang Jianbing also heard Tang Xiong's appreciation for Yang Ning, and did not forget to remind Yang Ning of the purpose of the items he had.
Hearing Zhuang Jianbing's suggestion, Yang Ning's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam.
"Ahaha...... Is Brother Yang here? The situation just now made Brother Yang smile. Hee-hee......"
Not long after Zhuang Jianbing left, Tang Xiong sneaked in from outside, and after entering the house, he also probed his brain left and right to see if there was anyone else in the house, and when he saw Yang Ning, he grinned vigorously.
"Brother Tang, Tang Pavilion Master, what are you doing?"
Glaring at Tang Xiong angrily, Yang Ning picked up a teacup, poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Tang Xiong.
"Hey, this kind of ritual is troublesome, time-consuming, and brain-burning! If it weren't for your Brother Yang's canonization ceremony, and this kind of ceremony must be done, I really wouldn't want to show up. So, I'll go through the whole process as fast as I can, so as not to get tired! Hey hey ......"
Looking at the guy in front of him who didn't have the form of the master of the pavilion, Yang Ning was speechless.
"Well, yes. Brother Tang, the Zhennan Dynasty has a population of hundreds of millions in the whole country, and your Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion is the strongest sect in the dynasty, there should be many monks who want to join, but why is there only more than a thousand people in the whole pavilion, less than two thousand? ”
Suddenly remembering that he saw the strongest sect in a dynasty in the martial arts arena today, but all the disciples added up to only more than a thousand people, this ratio is not reasonable, Yang Ning's eyes widened and he wanted to know the answer in Tang Xiong's mouth.
"Hey, Brother Yang, your basic knowledge of cultivation is really lacking, you should go to the library to read the collection of books early. You should know that only by inducing qi into the body can you open a door to the heavens and officially enter the cultivation world. However, it is extremely difficult to do this, according to the exploration of our ancestors, we found that people who can achieve qi induction into the body have some special bodies, and they all have a certain affinity with one or more attributes of aura, and when there are appropriate exercises to assist them, it is easier to achieve qi induction into the body. ”
"However, among the countless people in the entire Star Loss Heaven Domain, there are still very few people who can enter the cultivation realm, and it can even be said that there is no one in ten thousand, even if you cultivate martial arts to the peak, due to the limitations of your physique, you still can't achieve qi induction into the body. Therefore, although there are hundreds of millions of people in the Zhennan Dynasty, and there are other sects, it is not bad to be able to collect more than a thousand. Hey......"
When talking about the basic common sense of the cultivation world, Tang Xiong also sighed with emotion when he remembered the situation when he had attracted qi into his body back then.
The two chatted about the topic and chatted inadvertently for a morning. The ten outer disciples who were selected to wait for Yang Ning, due to the majesty of the Tang Xiong Pavilion Lord, none of them dared to come in and wait. Yang An, who has always stayed by his father's side, can only temporarily play the role of a handyman, making tea and pouring water for these two adults.
However, Tang Xiong's knowledge was indeed extensive, and the father and son not only heard some things that the people would never know, but also deepened their understanding of the basic common sense of the cultivation world.
It was almost noon before Tang Xiong left the fine house where Yang Ning lived. After this chat, Yang Ning was even more eager to read the books in the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion.
After breakfast the next day, Yang Ning played a set of boxing techniques that he usually practiced in the rising sun, and Zhuang Jianbing had already come to the Jingshe to prepare to take Yang Ning to the library pavilion.
After a set of punches, a little sweat, Yang Ning asked Zhuang Jianbing to wait for a while, rinsed briefly, changed into clean clothes, and called his son Yang An to walk out with Zhuang Jianbing.
"Eh, Yang Keqing, is your son also going?"
Seeing that Yang Ning also deliberately called Yang An together, the expression on Zhuang Jianbing's face was a little unnatural.
"Hehe, Deacon Zhuang, please forgive me! I know the rules, and you know that our father and son both come from a wasteland where knowledge is exhausted, and it is rare to have the opportunity to learn a wealth of knowledge. I talked to the Tang Pavilion Lord yesterday and knew the rules of the Library Pavilion. However, please rest assured, I will not break the rules of the sect, and my son will only read the first floor of the collection, and will never trespass. ”
During the chat with Tang Xiong yesterday, Yang Ning specially asked about the rules of the Library Pavilion. There are three floors in the library pavilion, the first floor is open to the public, this layer stores the most basic description of the cultivation world, the local environment of the Zhennan Dynasty, the bordering dynasty, miscellaneous notes, mineral materials, demon beasts, treasure medicine plants and other books, any person in the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion, even the miscellaneous personnel who boil water and chop firewood can watch it at any time.
The second layer is where the various exercises collected by the Pavilion over the millennium are stored; The third layer stores spell books with various attributes matching cultivation; These two floors are not accessible to everyone, only those who have the status of a formal disciple or above, and also need to pay a certain amount of merit points before they can enter the viewing, and there is a time limit.
Although Yang Ning was promised by Tang Xiong that all the books in the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion could be viewed, this was limited to him alone, not including his son Yang An.
Hearing Yang Ning's assurance, Zhuang Jianbing's hanging heart slowly let go, the time everyone has been in contact for a very short time, and they don't know much about it. After all, the two were invited back by Tang Xiong, I don't know what kind of relationship they have? Moreover, it seems that Tang Xiong still cares about this person. If they break the rules of the library, they don't know what to do.
"Deacon Zhuang, let's go to the Hall of Merit first, and then ask you to take us to the Library Pavilion."
After going out, thinking that he could watch the thousand-year-old collection of books collected by the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion today, Yang Ning took a deep breath, calmed down his mood a little, and said to Zhuang Jianbing with a smile.
"Okay. Yang Keqing, please come with me. ”
At this time, Zhuang Jianbing found that there was a small package on Yang Ning's back, and he smiled understandingly, knowing that Yang Ning had taken what he said yesterday to heart.
The Hall of Merit is located in the center of the inner gate, some distance from where Yang Ning lives, Zhuang Jianbing led the way, unfolded his body and galloped for more than half an hour, before they came to a three-story high, covering an area of at least a mile in front of a majestic palace.
The whole palace is built with huge pieces of black blue stone, and the tall walls are carved with all kinds of monsters and treasures of different forms, including the hideous dragon that soars through the clouds; There is a white giant wolf with a roaring moon in the sky; There are big golden birds that spread their wings and soar into the sky; There are sea monsters that set off the waves of the flood peaks; There are treasures of strange flowers and leaves growing in the mountains......
The open palace gate is a little deep, like a big mouth of a demon beast that is open to be devoured; A bell hangs on each of the cornices of the palace, and when the breeze blows, a pleasant bell rings. The coexistence of ferocity and purity of heart makes people feel very contradictory.
"Yang Keqing, this is the Hall of Merit, if you have any treasure materials, minerals, or monster fur materials, you can come here to exchange for success points, and you can also use the materials in your hands to exchange for all kinds of materials you need."
Zhuang Jianbing led Yang Ning into the Hall of Merit while leading the way in front of him, and at the same time explained to him the intention of the Hall of Merit again.
"Good morning, Deacon Hao! Qing girl, Lan girl, Feng girl, Qi boy, Heng boy, Hao boy, old man Hua, come and greet you. Hehe...... I'm here again. ”
Before he approached the counter in the hall, Zhuang Jianbing laughed and shouted loudly, obviously he came here often and was very familiar with the people inside.
