Volume 1 The War of the Seven Kingdoms Chapter 18 The Pavilion of the Instrument
"Let's go down," the flying sword stopped, Lin Jian and the two jumped down, Zhao Pingji put away the long sword, and took the lead towards the corridor in the middle of the attic.
There is a dark gold plaque hanging above the main entrance, and the two large characters "Instrument Pavilion" are inlaid in it.
At this time, a gray-clothed young man greeted him and arched his hand towards Zhao Pingji: "Senior Brother Zhao! ”
"I'm looking for Uncle Chang."
"Senior Uncle Chang is resting in the house, Senior Brother will wait for a while, and I will report immediately."
After a while, the young man walked back again, "Uncle Chang is in the house, please come in." ”
"Okay, there's Senior Brother Lao." Zhao Pingji arched his hand and walked towards the house.
There are many passages connected by the corridor, Zhao Pingji took the two of them to turn two corners, walked outside a room, and said respectfully: "Uncle Chang, disciple Zhao Pingji asks to see." ”
"Come in!" A faint voice came from inside the house.
Zhao Pingji pushed the door in, and saw an old man sitting at the table in the room, with black and white mixed hair, a swarthy face, and a black robe attached to his body, revealing a feeling of muscle tension and power explosion.
What caught Lin Jian's attention the most was that the old man's hand holding the teacup was covered with thick calluses on his fingers, and the muscles on his forearm were inadvertently revealed.
The whole old man looked only slightly older, but he revealed a sense of strength that no one in his prime had.
"Uncle Chang has been in good health lately? Zhao Pingji bowed his hand in greeting.
"Tell me something!" The old man sat at the table, his eyes closed, and his voice was still not loud.
"Today, another batch of disciples has been recruited, and the head of the sect asked me to send you two too."
The old man opened his eyes and glanced at Lin Jian and the others, "Hmph! Two coolies sent in again? Isn't my Pavilion capable of cultivating good seedlings? Or does Zhang Zhiyuan want to make the Pavilion extinct? ”
"How can it, it's not like there's no suitability." Zhao Pingji hurriedly shook his head.
"Every time there is no suitable one, it must be the people of Sanfeng who want to leave again! Forget it, let it be. ”
"Then, Uncle Chang, my solid gold stone?"
"It's refined, I ask every day, is it annoying? The things are in the storeroom, and I will take them myself. ”
"Uncle Xie, that disciple will leave first."
"Well, go ahead!"
Zhao Pingji's face was overjoyed, and he turned around and walked hurriedly, obviously in a hurry to get the "solid gold stone".
"What's your name?" The old man looked at the two people in front of him.
"The disciple's name is Lin Jian." "The disciple's name is Wang Xiaofan." The two replied very respectfully.
"Well," the old man thought for a moment,
"Wu Kai, you take the two of them to get acquainted, arrange a residence, talk about the rules, and after a week, arrange to go to the first floor of the earth."
"Yes!" A short-haired young man came over and led Lin Jian and the two out.
Out of the room, Wu Kai led the way in front and said as he walked.
"There are a total of 27 people in the Pavilion, and the Pavilion Master is the one you just met, Uncle Chang Hongchang. The elder brother's name is Yu Da, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of condensation. ”
"Oh, by the way, you two may not know the division of cultivation yet, but you will know later. Most of the senior brothers already have their own attics outside, and they are often not in the pavilion, so you don't have to be afraid. Wu Kai smiled and continued.
"There are basically three areas in the Instrument Pavilion, the refining area, the storehouse and the cultivation area. Your residence is in the cultivation area, so I'll take you there now. ”
"Chen Dao Sect is the largest cultivation sect in the Su country, with a total of three peaks and two pavilions, the three peaks are: Condensing Qi Peak, Condensing Dust Peak and Condensing Mist Peak. The two pavilions are: Dan Pavilion and Instrument Pavilion. Oh, and there is also a hall on the first floor, which is the library building and the deacon hall. Wu Kai introduced.
"These specifics, I will slowly become familiar with them in the future, and I will remember them."
After speaking, Wu Kai stopped, pointed to a row of houses in front of him and said, "This is where you live, you two pick a room on the left side, have a good rest today, and tomorrow I will take you to the deacon hall to get the entrance materials." ”
"Also, some of the other rooms are empty, but don't mess in, and some are rooms where other senior brothers live. My name is Wu Kai, you can just call me Senior Brother Wu, I live opposite, you can come to me if you have something. ”
"Thank you, brother!" The two thanked each other.
Waiting for Wu Kai to leave, the two entered the house separately.
As soon as Lin Jian closed the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I finally survived." ”
Suppressing the joy in my heart, I looked at this room that belonged to me.
A bed, a set of tables and chairs, a cupboard, and a futon. Lin Jian found that the rooms of this Chen Dao Sect were all very poorly furnished, and he didn't know if it was the style of the sect, or if the immortals didn't need other sundries.
Lin Jian took off everything on his body and put it on the table. Then he threw himself on the bed and lay on the bed and remembered today's events.
Suddenly, Lin Jian jumped up and twisted his arm fiercely.
"Oops," grinned as he rubbed his twisted bruised arm, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Hahahaha, it's true, I'll be an immortal soon." Lin Jian immediately covered his mouth again, making his voice quieter.
"Hehe" lay on the bed, thinking that he would be able to ride the clouds and fog in the future, and he couldn't stop stupidly playing.
Next. Wu Kai walked in front, and Lin Jian and Wang Xiaofan followed behind and looked around curiously.
"This is the deacon hall, they are responsible for everything in the door, and their supplies are also distributed by them, and you can receive spirit stones and pills here every month in the future." Wu Kai stopped in front of a three-story wooden building, turned around and explained to the two.
"There are also tasks to receive and hand in, and it is also here, new disciples, there will be tasks to be completed every year, and those miscellaneous things are a headache to watch."
"Hehe, but you're lucky to have come to the Instrument Pavilion, we don't need to pick up tasks here, so we won't have a headache because of those boring and time-consuming tasks." Wu Kai explained with a smile.
"Senior Brother Wu, why don't we take on the task?" Wang Xiaofan raised his hand, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he immediately put it down and asked timidly.
"Because, you have your own tasks, in the Instrument Pavilion, of course, the task is to refine weapons!" Wu Kai didn't care much either, his gentle tone was full of pride.
"Can we learn alchemy?" Wang Xiaofan's tone was hurried and excited, and Lin Jian also stared at Wu Kai, eager to know the answer.
"Hahaha, don't worry, you haven't cultivated now, how can you refine weapons? When you improve your cultivation, the Pavilion Master will definitely teach you. ”
Wu Kai was very happy to see that the two were very interested, but in that laughter, there seemed to be a little schadenfreude.
"Let's go, let's go in first to get the supplies, you will know the rest slowly, don't worry, you will come into contact with it."
Seeing that Senior Brother Wu had already walked in, the two glanced at each other, and the excitement had not faded, and Lin Jian could see that Wang Xiaofan's slightly chubby face was red.
After a while, the three of them walked out of the deacon hall again, and Lin Jian and Wang Xiaofan held a bunch of things in their arms.
"The senior brothers in the deacon hall are very talkative, and as soon as they heard that we received the supplies, they immediately sent them." Wang Xiaofan received a bunch of things again, and his tone became even happier.
"Hmm. Everything is complete, don't look at them being polite to you, that's because you are from the Cabinet. Wu Kai nodded and explained.
"Oh? Could it be that Senior Brother Wu means that the senior brothers in the Deacon Hall are not easy to get along with? Wang Xiaofan was a little puzzled.
"We'll go back first, and we'll talk to you later." Wu Kai glared at him.
Instrument Pavilion, cultivation area.
"This book is the most basic practice for refining qi, and all disciples are starting to practice this exercise. You have to practice diligently, and when you are promoted to the condensation stage, you can go to the library to choose the exercises yourself. ”
"This is a five-element spell, and it is full of some very basic and practical spells, of course, these spells can only be cast after you enter the qi refining period."
"That bottle of elixir is a small elixir, which can help you cultivate your aura and speed up your cultivation, and you can only take it after entering the qi refining period."
"Finally, there's this bag, called a storage bag, which can hold some small items. Some clothes, as well as two lower-grade spirit stones, were also packed in that storage bag, which could only be used when you entered the Qi refining period. ”
"So, you have to remember that cultivation is everything, and hard work is the most important thing!"
Wu Kai introduced the things the two received one by one.
"Well, as for the question Wang Xiaopang asked just now," Wu Kai turned his gaze to Wang Xiaofan.
Wang Xiaofan was a little ashamed, I don't know if it was because he called him Wang Xiaopang, or for other reasons.
"The people of the Deacon Hall are not easy to speak, they have a lot of power in the sect, if you are from the Three Peaks, they may also pick up some materials, which is also a normal thing, not to mention any kind attitude."
"Huh? How can this work? Doesn't the sect care about them? So why are they so polite to us? Wang Xiaofan was a little surprised and asked several questions in a row.
"What's this? Most of their time is used to deal with sect chores, so there is not much time left for cultivation, and the sect turns a blind eye to this kind of thing, which can be regarded as another form of compensation for them. ”
"As for the attitude towards us, it's because we're from the Cabinet. They often carry out dangerous missions, and they have a good spiritual weapon that may save their lives. And the spiritual weapon can only be exchanged in our Instrument Pavilion, which is the reason why they have a better attitude towards us. Wu Kai's voice was long.
Wang Xiaofan opened his mouth, a little surprised. Lin Jian's eyes flashed, and he was also thoughtful.
"Also, pay attention to the occasion when you speak, Wang Xiaopang, you have to pay attention!" Wu Kai's tone was solemn.
"Trouble comes from the mouth, if you say the wrong thing and provoke others, it will give you some small slumps, and at worst it will cost you your life!"
"Yes!" Wang Xiaofan lowered his head and replied, as if he was frightened, and he didn't know where to put his two hands, looking cramped and uneasy.
"Okay, you remember to practice diligently, the realm is high, and others will not dare to provoke you. If you don't understand something, feel free to find me. Wu Kai raised his hand and turned to leave.
"Thank you, brother!" The two arched their hands.
"By the way, in a week, you have to go to the first layer of the earth fire, before that, you had better cultivate the aura, otherwise you will feel better, hehe."
"Yes!" The two packed up their things and went back to the house.
