Volume 3: Ignorant Qi Refining One Hundred and One: Stealing Teachers
The five of them chatted for a while, Lu Pingchuan's meat was roasted, and several people couldn't help but eat it with their index fingers.
While eating, Tang Ping remembered something and said, "In a few days, it will be the 'immortal fishing' once every five years in the sect, do you know?" ”
Yan Xuan heard this, and immediately said, "Well, I heard about it. ”
"Immortal fishing?" Lu Pingchuan didn't understand when he heard it, and asked, "Sister Tang, what is that, fishing?" ”
"Immortals are fishing, ah" she said, Tang Ping pointed diagonally with a bone in her hand that was gnawed by her, "What is that?" ”
Lu Pingchuan looked over and said, "Isn't that the Jade Pot Mountain on Tianshui Lake?" ”
"That's right, Brother Lu, do you remember that there were a lot of vines hanging down on the Jade Pot Mountain?"
"I remember."
"Those vines are also strange, every few years one day they will grow very long, and they will hang down to Tianshui Lake."
Lu Pingchuan understood a little at this time, and said: "Oh, those vines have grown, and if they fall into the water, they will be called immortal fishing, so what's so fun?" ”
"That's not fun, Brother Lu, do you know what's on that Jade Pot Mountain?"
"Didn't you say that the seniors of our sect were all practicing on the Jade Pot Mountain? Eh, could it be that they couldn't use this method to fish from Tianshui Lake that day? ”
As soon as these words came out, Yan Xuan was amused.
"Alas, of course not," Tang Ping said helplessly, "Brother Lu, in addition to those ancestors on the Jade Pot Mountain, there are many, many monkeys, usually those monkeys can't get down, and only on that day can they climb down those vines." ”
"Oh, that's right. That...... Isn't it just a monkey coming down the mountain, what's wrong? ”
"Brother Lu, those monkeys are not easy to mess with," Yan Xuan said, "I also heard about this immortal fishing, and our disciples of Qixia Mountain were all asked to go to the Spirit Grass Garden to help on that day, just because we were afraid that those monkeys would come down the mountain and harm our Spirit Grass." ”
"Are those monkeys so hateful?" Lu Pingchuan asked.
"It's not just hateful," Tang Ping said, "It's still very powerful, do you think, what about the monkeys on the Jade Pot Mountain, how can they be mortal?" Ordinary little monkeys are said to be equivalent to the cultivation of qi refining, and the larger ones are even equivalent to the cultivation of building a foundation, they come down the mountain to mix unreasonable, and when they see delicious food, they rush up, grab it and fill it in their mouths, and when they see fun, they also rush up, and take it back to the jade pot mountain when they grab it, if you don't give or block them, they are even more swarmed up, scratching and scratching, ordinary qi refining disciples are not opponents at all, they can only be robbed of a fine light, if they run slowly, the clothes on their bodies will be snatched away by them! It's just that they are still clever, and they don't want to provoke monks with high cultivation! ”
Hearing this, Qian Chao and Li Jian were a little dazed.
"That's amazing!"
"Well," Tang Ping said, "Actually, if you hide good things and don't provoke them, you'll be fine, but Brother Li, you have to be careful that day." ”
"Oh! Why is that? Li Jian was very curious one day, in fact, he was not the only one, and the rest of the people were also curious.
"Alas! Those monkeys don't want to die as long as they encounter sweet food, Brother Li, the wild honey in your bamboo forest, in the past, it was just not good, but now the wild honey in your forest is very good, this time you can be careful, maybe you will attract those monkeys to the past to give you a scourge There is no beehive left. ”
Li Jian nodded after hearing this, and said, "Well, it seems that I really have to cheer up that day, hmph, I didn't expect to deal with monkeys." ”
Lu Pingchuan heard it and immediately said, "It's okay! Brother Li, I came to you early that day, let's deal with those monkeys together! ”
"I'll do it too." Qian Chao also said.
"Sister Yan is going to protect their spirit grass, and I have something to do that day, but the three of you are together, and it is estimated that it will be about the same, otherwise I would like to go and have fun with you." Oh, by the way, you must remember that those monkeys can only fight, but they can't hurt, they are very vindictive, if you hurt one, wait until the next time all the monkeys go down the mountain to find you alone, even if you can't find it, you have to tear down your house in a mess to get rid of your hatred. ”
"Huh?" This surprised these people again.
"I listened to a senior brother under my sixth grandfather, a disciple of Shuiyun Valley planted some spiritual fruits by himself, and one year when he drove those monkeys, he accidentally killed one, and the next time hundreds of monkeys came down from the Jade Pot Mountain to find him trouble, he was so scared that the disciple ran away directly, and the orchard was gone, and when he came back, he found that the garden was not to mention the spiritual fruit, and even the fruit trees were directly gnawed off by those monkeys, which was very miserable."
"This monkey is so hateful!"
"Well, as long as you don't die or get hurt, it's easy to say anything else, and it doesn't matter how painful it is."
……
On the stone table in the small courtyard of Qianchao, a beige brocade was spread on the table like a furoshi, and five large nails-like objects were placed on the brocade, and two other books were also placed there.
The five big nails are naturally the lock spirit piles refined for Senior Sister Luo, and the two books were also left by Senior Sister Luo that day, seeing that the one-month deadline has arrived, then Senior Sister Luo also found someone to bring a message to Qian Chao, saying that she wanted to come over to get her own lock spirit pile, so Qian Chao waited quietly in his small courtyard.
Qian Chao has been very curious about this lock spirit pile since it was refined, and he has tried it a few times in private, but unfortunately the method is not right at all, except for making these five big nails-like lock spirit piles fly and move, nothing else can be done.
However, Qian Chao didn't think that he could figure out the use of this lock spirit pile by himself, he was just curious. He was curious about it now, how could Senior Sister Luo come after a while, how to verify whether the refining of this lock spirit pile was successful?
Hearing the knock on the door, Qian Chao hurriedly got up to answer the door, but the person who knocked on the door directly pushed the door in, it was Senior Sister Luo, who was still wearing a dark dress.
Qian Chao saw it and hurriedly greeted and saluted, but Senior Sister Luo just said "um" gently, and since she entered Qian Chao's courtyard, she saw something on the stone table, and walked over and sat on the stone bench directly.
"It's really refined? How's it going? Seeing the lock spirit pile on the stone table, Senior Sister Luo was curious and picked up one and looked at it carefully in front of her.
"It is completely refined according to Senior Sister Luo's requirements, but how well it is refined will be verified by Senior Sister Luo herself."
Senior Sister Luo listened, hummed softly, then stopped speaking, only picked up the lock spirit piles on the table one by one and looked at them carefully, it seemed that there were no flaws with the naked eye, she put them all on the stone table again, and took out a bag and put it on the stone table.
"Senior Brother Qian, I'm going to verify and verify, Yao, do you see it? If it is done, this bag of spirit stones is yours, if not, hum, Senior Brother Qian, how many spirit stones should you pay me? ”
After hearing this, Qian Chao hurriedly said cautiously: "If it doesn't work out, it will delay Senior Sister Luo's time, and naturally I will make amends to Senior Sister Luo, please rest assured, if it is really like that, it will naturally satisfy Senior Sister Luo." ”
"Hmph, Senior Brother Qian, the tone is not small, let's take a look first."
As she spoke, Senior Sister Luo slapped her hands together, and saw that the five locking spirit piles were suspended from the stone table in unison, and turned into a circle above the table. This is Senior Sister Luo, so she no longer pays attention to the money tide, and stares at the lock spirit pile with her two eyes without blinking.
Here it comes! Qian Chao said secretly, he was just trying to see how this Senior Sister Luo verified the lock spirit pile she had refined, so although he stood still on the side, his eyes kept staring at the five lock spirit piles.
The five long nails-like lock spirit piles turned around under the traction of Senior Sister Luo's aura, and gradually a slight blue light came out, and it seemed that there was a blue circle in front of Senior Sister Luo that was constantly rotating, big and small, and then the color of this circle changed, sometimes fiery red, sometimes bright white, and then it was called the color of grass green, but because it was rotating, people only felt dazzled when they saw it.
These obviously happened under the manipulation of Senior Sister Luo, and Qian Chao noticed that the five slender jade fingers on Senior Sister Luo's right hand kept changing their hands, and almost every time they changed, the color of the lock spirit pile would change. He secretly remembered the hand decision in his heart, but he only knew the hand decision, but he didn't know how to use the heart method.
After a while, Senior Sister Luo stopped and looked at Qian Chao.
Qian Chao hurriedly asked, "Senior Sister Luo, how is this lock spirit pile?" ”
"What's the hurry, I haven't finished reading it!" After Senior Sister Luo finished speaking, she reached out and took out a spirit stone from the bag on the stone table, Qian Chao was very puzzled when she saw it, and she didn't know what this Senior Sister Luo was going to do with the spirit stone.
"Look at it, Senior Brother Qian, success or failure is all about it." Senior Sister Luo threw the spirit stone on the ground as she spoke.
The spirit stone was crystal clear, and it jumped twice on the ground and then stopped there, and then the five lock spirit piles that were still suspended suddenly fell around the spirit stone, nailed to the ground a few inches into the ground, and the spirit stone was in the center of the five lock spirit piles. Immediately, Qian Chao noticed that Senior Sister Luo's two hands changed together, and then looked at the color of the five locking spirit piles.
The spirit stone in the lock spirit pile was like a piece of ice suddenly encountering high temperatures, and it was slowly getting smaller at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye of Qian Chao, and finally shrank to the size of a grain of rice, and then dissipated after a slight flash of light.
This can make Qian Chao very surprised, if he uses a spirit stone when he is practicing on weekdays, he has to meditate at least twice to absorb a spirit stone, and it is only a few breaths, and a spirit stone is gone! Incredible! He approached and squatted there to look carefully on the ground, and finally he stretched out a finger and pressed it on the place where the spirit stone had landed before, as if to find out where the spirit stone had gone.
Qian Chao's actions made Senior Sister Luo laugh, she looked at Qian Chao's actions with a proud face, and said, "Don't look for it, that spirit stone is gone, and it has been consumed by this lock spirit pile." ”
After saying that, Senior Sister Luo's hand made a random move, and the five lock spirit stakes jumped up from the ground again, and flew down into her hands.
"That's right, Senior Brother Qian, it seems that I really underestimated you at the beginning, but I didn't expect that you could really refine this lock spirit pile on the second layer of qi refining, not bad."
Senior Sister Luo said and put the lock spirit pile into her storage bag, it seems that these five lock spirit piles have been approved by her.
"However, if you hadn't refined it, it was actually a joke at the beginning, maybe I would have rewarded you with some spirit stones, and now, you can only get these spirit stones."
Qian Chao naturally understood the meaning of her words, but he just listened and did not make a sound.
"Okay, in that case, then I'll go." Before leaving, Senior Sister Luo also took away the two books that were left for Qian Chao.
Only the bag of spirit stones remained on the stone table, and of course there was one piece missing.
Qian Chao sent Senior Sister Luo away, so he grabbed the bag of spirit stones and checked it in his hand, then opened it and looked at it, it was really a lot, and it was a lot of money.
After putting away the spirit stone, Qian Chao looked at it carefully again, and confirmed that Senior Sister Luo had gone far before turning around and returning to her room, and closed the door with her backhand.
In the room, Qian Chao sat on the futon as if he was about to start meditating, but after doing it for a while, he found five locking spirit stakes from the storage bag that were almost identical to the ones that Senior Sister Luo had taken away.
That Senior Sister Luo also underestimated Qian Chao, thinking that it would be very good for Qian Chao to be able to refine the lock spirit pile in a month, but Qian Chao not only refined it, but also secretly refined five for herself, which shows how curious and yearning Qian Chao is about the art of arranging the array.
It's just that Qian Chao has been fiddling with it for a long time, and he can also make these five locking spirit piles rotate like when Senior Sister Luo used them, but the five piles have not changed at all. This is also simple, because Qian Chao drove this lock spirit pile to use the magic of the body, and Senior Sister Luo used her own unique spell, as the saying goes, a key opens a lock, even if Qian Chao is clever in the magic of things, it is impossible to use this lock spirit pile.
Sighing, Qian Chao took back the five stakes, and then took out a piece of paper from the storage bag, which was drawn on the five locking spirit stakes, and even the runes on each one Qian Chao were carefully traced. He placed the paper on the bookcase, took out pens of different colors, and began to draw many lines between the five stakes.
Previously, Senior Sister Luo used the lock spirit pile to quickly dissipate an unused spirit stone, which opened Qian Chao's eyes, in fact, he had already paid attention to it, and took advantage of Senior Sister Luo's unpreparedness, and secretly used his blue eye technique to see the changes between the five lock spirit piles, which really made him see some clues.
In Qian Chao's opinion, after the five lock spirit piles were nailed to the ground, Senior Sister Luo didn't give them much spiritual power, she just cast a spell to change the runes on one of the piles, and then the runes began to absorb the aura in the spirit stone and triggered the other runes on the pile, and the change of one pile caused the adjacent piles to also change, and the runes of the last five piles were constantly changing, until the aura of the spirit stone was absorbed.
However, what surprised Qian Chao even more was that after the spiritual energy contained in that spirit stone was absorbed by the lock spirit pile, it formed an oppressive force on the center of the five piles and the position of the spirit stone after several turnovers between the five piles. Seeing this, Qian Chao immediately thought that if the middle of these five lock spirit piles was not this spirit stone, but a demon beast, then these five lock spirit piles would not only continuously absorb the aura of its whole body, but also turn the absorbed aura to deal with the trapped demon beast, making it even more immobile. Originally, the aura was sucked away, just like a person who had lost his strength, gradually weakened, and turned back to use this strength to deal with it! In this way, whether it is a demon beast or a monk who is trapped, the end will be the same, and you will be caught!
This formation technique is really amazing! Qian Chao couldn't help but sigh in his heart after seeing it at that time, and he was afraid that the changes on his face would be seen by Senior Sister Luo, after all, even if he was not stealing the teacher, he was spying on other people's magic mysteries, not to mention the senior Luo behind Senior Sister Luo, even if Senior Sister Luo saw through it, he would not let himself go, so Qian Chao deliberately squatted on the ground and pretended to be curious, in fact, he was hiding the shock on his face.
The painting on the paper was completed, and Qian Chao also knew how this formation of Senior Sister Luo roughly worked, but Qian Chao knew why it was at this time, but he didn't know it, he knew why the formation was powerful, but he didn't know how to make the formation work.
After staring at the drawing for a long time, Qian Chao still didn't know how to operate, but after looking at it for a long time, he frowned, thought for a while, and then rummaged through the storage bag, and took out a larger paper roll and spread it on the bookcase. There were five on the paper, but instead of locking stakes, they were five pillars. Each one has intricate and obscure runes on it, and there are different lines connecting the five pillars.
What is drawn on this piece of paper is not simple, but the small five spirit arrays that Qian Chao and the other five experienced in the Little Lotus Lake when they were still in Youming Valley.
Qian Chao never forgets it, but anyone who has seen it once can basically remember it in his heart, that time is a rare adventure, it can be regarded as the first real danger he has experienced since he stepped into the cultivation world, and because of his efforts, his eyes have changed a little, and he has seen some strange scenes, so after entering the inner door, he will follow his memory and describe all the situations in the formation on the paper.
Comparing these two pictures, Qian Chao looked at it carefully for a while, and finally was a little deflated, except that the number of piles and pillars was five, and then there was the aura that was turning around in the two arrays, coming and going. Apart from these two points, it seems that the two formations have nothing in common.
However, it was always the little five spirit arrays that were much more complicated.
Shaking his head, he thought that he could gain something in comparison, and put away both papers in disappointment. However, although disappointed, Qian Chao is not in a hurry, and there is still some harvest today, at least I know why the formation composed of this lock spirit pile is powerful, but ...... What if you accidentally get trapped by this formation?
Such a formation, if you destroy a lock spirit pile, it will be considered a broken formation, in fact, there is no need to destroy, if you have the ability, kick a stake away in the formation, it is also considered to be broken, but can you have the spare strength to do so when you are in the formation?
Breaking the formation with a formation, Qian Chao didn't think about breaking the formation with force, but if he was trapped in this formation, how to arrange a formation around him, which could not only protect himself from harm but also break the outside formation.
There was silence in the room, and Qian Chao fell into deep thought.
