Volume 3: Ignorant Qi Refining Five: Qixia Mountain
Besides, Yan Xuan, with the disciples who were selected by Qixia Mountain, walked out of the main hall together, and saw that the female cultivator surnamed Zhong found an open place by Tianshui Lake, took out a fan and threw it casually, and saw that the fan actually rose in the wind, like a table top like a mat, and finally it was bigger than the painting boat in the lake, and it hung steadily less than two feet from the ground.
The female cultivator surnamed Zhong and the male monk stepped on the fan together, and ordered everyone to come up too, Yan Xuan was in front of the team, and when she saw that the fan did not move when the two monks boarded it, she also had the courage to raise her legs and step on it, and it was really very stable. It's just that she looks at the flowers embroidered on the fan under her feet, which are exquisite, one is that she can't bear to step on it, and the other is that she is afraid that the thin layer of yarn will not be able to withstand her own leakage.
When the female cultivator surnamed Zhong saw her like this, she knew that she was flying with a magic weapon for the first time, so she smiled and reassured her. Ke Yanxuan is still thinking that it would be good if Ah Ping's girl was here, and she would be more at ease with her.
Everyone stood on the fan, and they didn't see how the nun moved, so the fan flew up steadily, and saw that the hall that was still majestic around him just now was like a small box that was not as big as the palm of his hand, and then the wind around him blew by, although he still stood firmly under his feet as if he was sucked, but Yan Xuan was still so frightened that he couldn't help but close his eyes and didn't dare to open them.
"Alright, here we go." The female cultivator surnamed Zhong said.
Yan Xuan dared to open his eyes, but found that it was still early, and the fan was slowly falling into the open space on a high mountain, and the fan didn't know how high it flew now, but seeing that the people walking on the mountain were as small as ants, until the fan stopped steadily, Yan Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The place where the fan stopped was a high platform on the top of a hill, and the foot was made of smooth stone slabs, and the circle was surrounded by a white stone railing. Many disciples jumped down from the fan one after another, and the female cultivator surnamed Zhong also said to Yan Xuan:
"Hurry up and cultivate that Sky Guarding Technique well, otherwise, you won't be able to move an inch in the sect."
Yan Xuan thanked him and jumped onto the stone platform.
After these disciples all got down from the fan, the two monks flew away in the fan, and naturally there was no need for the monks to bother here, and there were already disciples from Qixia Mountain waiting there.
More than fifty disciples were divided into two teams according to men and women, and in a large sect like the Five Spirits Sect, the sect naturally had strict laws, especially on the male and female defenses, and there was no room for any chaos, and the male disciples were taken away by several senior brothers who were refining qi. A dozen female disciples were led by a senior sister who looked gentle and beautiful, and walked along the ridge stone steps through a dense mountain forest, and in a short time they were led to rows of delicate courtyards.
"Okay, you will live here in the future," the senior sister stopped the female disciples, "My surname is Min, and the master ordered me to temporarily take charge of you little junior sisters who are just getting started, and you can call me Senior Sister Min in the future, the layout of the small courtyard here is generally the same, you can choose a place that suits your own heart." Once you've chosen, look there. ”
As she spoke, Senior Sister Min pointed with a plain finger to a pavilion not far away that was hidden by trees.
"After you choose, you can go there to find me, I will wait for you on the first floor there, the master still has some things to distribute to you, don't forget about it."
After saying that, Senior Sister Namin left.
Yan Xuan and the female disciples looked at these small courtyards, and went in a few at random to take a look, and sure enough, the layout was roughly the same, with three houses in one light and two dark, and all kinds of utensils and furnishings in the room were also complete and clean and tidy. The courtyard is not too big, but it is spacious for a little girl, and some flowers and plants have already been planted in the courtyard. After reading the selection, Yan Xuan thought about what Senior Sister Min said, walked out of his small courtyard and closed the courtyard door, Senior Sister Min said that as long as the courtyard door is closed, it means that this courtyard already has an owner, and others will not trespass.
In the hall on the first floor of that pavilion, Senior Sister Na Min was sitting behind a bookcase, and another female cultivator who was refining Qi helped her again, and a new female disciple was talking to Senior Sister Na Min before talking about the case, and Yan Xuan waited for the female disciple to walk away before coming to Senior Sister Min's bookcase.
"Sit," Senior Sister Min said, pointing to a futon next to the bookcase.
"What's my sister's name?" While asking, Senior Sister Na Min took out a warm and shiny white jade pendant from a storage bag.
"Yan Xuan," Yan Xuan replied.
"Uh, what two words?" Senior Sister Na Min seemed to be a little embarrassed and asked with a smile.
Yan Xuan saw that the tension in his heart was greatly reduced, so he stretched out a finger and crossed his name on the bookcase.
Senior Sister Na Min understood and said with a smile: "Got it." He took a pen from the pen holder, but did not dip it in ink, but dipped the tip of the pen in a small cup, Yan Xuan found that the small cup was actually water, and when he was wondering, he saw that Senior Sister Min used the pen to write her name on the flat place of the jade pendant, and saw that as the water stains gradually disappeared, the word "Yan Xuan" slowly protruded on the jade pendant, and Senior Sister Min also blew gently on the jade pendant before handing it to Yan Xuan.
"This is the identity jade pendant that indicates that you are a disciple of our Qixia Mountain, don't lose it, you must wear it on your body at all times."
Yan Xuan looked at the beautiful words on the jade pendant, nodded in thanks, and tied the ribbon of the jade pendant to the belt around his waist.
"Senior Sister Yan chose to practice Danjutsu?"
Yan Xuan listened and nodded.
Senior Sister Na Min also nodded, and took a stack of books from the female cultivator behind her, about a foot high, and placed them on the case.
"These seven books are necessary for the practice of Danshu, this one is the art of controlling fire, and this one is the art of imperial objects, these nine books are all essential for practicing Danshu. In addition, this last book is for daily practice. It's all yours. ”
As she spoke, Senior Sister Min took a storage bag and put the ten books in it. Then Senior Sister Min took a sheathed long sword from behind her and put it on the case, as well as a small jade bottle and a small wooden box.
Looking at the long sword, Yan Xuan was in a daze, how did he get to Qixia Mountain, could it be that he not only wanted to learn Danshu, but also martial arts?
Senior Sister Min noticed Yan Xuan's complexion, so she put her hand on the long sword and said, "This is the standard configuration of our five spirit disciples, whether you like it or not, I will give it to you, this is the most basic spirit sword, ah, look." ”
As he spoke, Yan Xuan saw that Senior Sister Min's hand seemed to be slightly glowing, and then he saw that the long sword with the sword body and scabbard gradually became smaller, and finally it was pinched in by Senior Sister Min like a hairpin.
"Amazing, isn't it? In fact, you can do it as long as you practice the art of imperial objects for a few days, but this sword, I told you that it is the most basic level of the spirit sword, to be honest, my one has long been unknown to me where it was got, our disciples of Qixia Mountain don't look down on this kind of goods at all, as long as the Danshu is a little successful, you will have enough spirit stones to go to Jiuxuan to find someone to refine a better spirit weapon for yourself, this one, you just keep it first, and then change it later. ”
Yan Xuan took the small sword from Senior Sister Min's hand, and now it seems that this spirit sword is much more cute than it is small.
"This bottle contains three Yang Yuan Pills, which are essential for our Qi refining disciples to practice, how to take them will teach you later, you take them first. The three in this box are spirit stones, which are also necessary for cultivation. From tomorrow onwards, you new disciples will first listen to me give you lectures here, and then we will explain to you how to use these things. This elixir and spirit stones will be available every month, but there will only be three of them for each month during the entire Qi refining period. But it's still the same sentence, our disciples of Qixia Mountain, as long as you work the Danshu, maybe you will not be able to look down on this little bit of the sect's offerings in the future. ”
Yan Xuan curiously uncorked the bottle and looked at the three small brown pills inside, the strange medicinal fragrance was something she had never smelled before.
Then I opened the small wooden box, and on top of the brocade pad were three transparent pebbles the size of my thumb's belly cut like rhinestones, which shimmered with a faint light.
Senior Sister Min took the storage bag containing Yan Xuan's ten books, put the sword, pill and spirit stone into it, and put the bag in Yan Xuan's hand.
"This bag was also given to you by the master, it's much better than the one you got in Youming Valley, okay, Senior Sister Yan, your things are here, remember to come here early tomorrow morning, don't forget."
There was a red leaf embroidered on the storage bag, which was probably the symbol of Qixia Mountain, Yan Xuan took it and said, "Senior Sister Min, don't worry, you will definitely not forget it." ”
