Chapter 200: Border Blockade
In the letter, there is no mention of the details of Zhang Tieshan's marriage.
For example, why did you only get an inferior Ning Jing Pill?
With Zhang Tieshan's military exploits and worth, and his qualifications and connections in the sect, it is expected to be a genuine Ning Jing Dan.
The reason for this is that it is inconvenient for Zhao Siyao to disclose it in the letter.
"Cheng Dan's quality can theoretically be hidden."
Lu Chang'an cultivated to the peak of the knot pill in his previous life, and knew a lot of secrets.
For example, Lu Chang'an will achieve a high-quality True Pill in the future, and through the ability to collect qi from Evergreen Gong, he can disguise himself as a True Pill in the middle and lower reaches of quality.
But this situation does not apply to Zhang Tieshan.
The real Dan and the false Dan, the vision of heaven and earth at the time of Ning Dan, the gap is obvious, and it is not easy to hide.
Zhang Tieshan is not secretly married outside.
Instead, in the third-order spiritual vein of Jinyun Valley, everyone watched the Ning Dan, and this process was difficult to hide from the True Dan elders of the sect.
Therefore, Lu Changan basically concluded that Zhang Tieshan formed a gray pill and could not be faked.
After pondering for a long time, Lu Changan's thoughts flashed:
"Could it be that he is taking the extremely dangerous method of turning pills?"
In the previous life, Da Kun, some Yuanying-level great sects mastered the secret method of breaking the pill liquid.
The essence of the knot pill is to condense the liquid mana of the foundation building period into a solid inner pill.
This process is not completely irreversible.
If Cheng Dan is not satisfied, he can theoretically shatter the Gray Dan and return the liquid mana in the foundation building period.
Some ancient sects do not pass on the secret method, through this method of "turning the pill back to liquid", so that the mana is more refined, and then the pill is re-condensed, and even the quality of the next pill can be slightly improved.
However, this method is close to legend, because the conditions are very harsh!
The process of returning the liquid is extremely dangerous and extremely unstable.
Monk Jiedan's Inner Dan, according to Lu Chang'an's understanding before he crossed, was equivalent to a small nuclear bomb.
If there is no real secret method of turning the pill, ordinary monks will break the pill and return the liquid, and nine out of ten will explode and die.
In his previous life, Lu Changan only had a secret method of mutilated version of the pill that was circulating abroad, and without the help of any external force, the success rate was less than one percent, which could be described as nine deaths.
With such a risk, Lu Changan didn't have any thoughts of trying.
Those ancient sects have mastered the secret method and are more than thirty percent sure.
If you have Yuanying Zhenjun personally protect the Fa, with the precious secret medicine, the success rate will be considerable.
"If this is the case, Zhang Tieshan may have a higher-grade Huadan secret method."
Lu Chang'an was thrilled.
He has a long lifespan, Changqing Gong is good at healing, and if there is a reliable secret method of turning pills, the error tolerance rate is naturally higher than that of other monks.
The return of the pill will greatly damage the monk's vitality and face different degrees of backlash.
This will have an impact on the foundation, which will take a lot of time to recuperate and consume a lot of rare resources.
When Guan Qiaozhi built the foundation, Lu Changan helped protect the Dharma and secretly tested it.
Guan Qiaozhi's counterattack on the failure of foundation building, with the secret technique of Evergreen Gong, consumes a small amount of longevity, heals the injury in time, and avoids damage to the foundation.
Just take a few months off and regain your energy for your next hit.
Lu Changan once wondered, can this method be applied to Yudan?
Poor quality of Chengdan?
Then come back again and again!
Theoretically, as long as you live a long life, you will eventually have a chance to wash out high-quality yudan.
The premise of the above assumptions is that there is a good secret method of turning pills.
Ensure that there is no mistake in each return of Huadan, and your life is worry-free.
"Huh! Even though Zhang Tieshan has a top-level secret method of transforming the pill, Jin Yungu does not have Yuanying Zhenjun to protect the Dharma for him, and the overall success rate is not high. ”
Under this assumption, Lu Changan found a suspicious point.
The grade of the secret method of Huadan is one thing, and external forces are also very important.
If you get the legendary "Yin Yang Water", even if you don't have the support of Yuanying Zhenjun, you can safely turn into a pill.
If Zhang Tieshan was really ready to take the method of turning into a pill, Lu Changan speculated that he had another chance.
"It seems that Tianfeng Zhenren's Yudan Xiaoqing is worth a trip."
Lu Changan decided to explore the reality.
……
Zhang Tieshan's Yudan Xiaoqing was held two months later.
It is said that it only invites fellow disciples and friends on a small scale, without much fanfare.
Lu Changan arrived in Jinyun Valley one day ahead of schedule.
In front of the mountain gate, I met some celebrants, and several of them came uninvited to visit Tianfeng Zhenren.
"This sect senior brother, can you be accommodating and help pass on the message? The two of us once fought side by side with Zhang Zhenren and joined forces to eliminate the wanted person, and the relationship is very iron! ”
"The relationship is iron? Why didn't Zhang Zhenren send you an invitation? ”
The gatekeeper sneered, as if looking at the clown's gaze.
"Zhang Zhenren's Yudan Xiaoqing is not open to the public, only the invitation letter!"
Lu Changan was not surprised to see this scene.
Zhang Tieshan has been practicing for more than 120 years, and he knows or has dealt with many monks.
"Master Lu Fu, please come in."
The disciple guarding the gate knew Lu Changan, glanced at the invitation, and warmly invited him to enter the mountain gate.
"Lu Fu Master? It seems to be the tortoise talisman master of Wuqi Mountain? ”
"I heard that this person and Zhang Zhenren met when they were teenagers and have a friendship of more than 100 years."
"This Lu Fu Master is also quite famous. Decades ago, when he was in the Qi refining period, I heard that he was a late bloomer and built a foundation at an advanced age. ”
"It turned out to be him, and he was our senior."
Seeing the back of the man in white, most of the monks discussing in front of the mountain gate had some respect.
……
In the hinterland of the mountain gate of Jinyun Valley, on a mountain peak where the third-order spiritual vein is located, you can see an ancient mansion.
This is Zhang Tieshan's new dojo, and the aura environment far surpasses that of Wuqi Mountain.
"Master Lu Fu, there are more guests today, and the family teacher is meeting two real people, so I really don't have time."
A young man with a hard face and a snow-green robe apologized.
The young man's name is "Yu Qinghai", he cultivated in the early stage of foundation building, and he was a disciple of Zhang Tieshan in the door thirty years ago, with medium qualifications and a weak sense of existence.
Lu Changan and Yu Qinghai only have one or two sides, unlike Zhao Tan'er and the previous Lin Lu, who have a relatively close relationship.
"It's okay, it's not the day of the Yudan celebration yet. You can just take the time to tell the commander. ”
Lu Chang'an said.
"Definitely! Wait until tomorrow, Master Lu Fu will be able to meet the family teacher. Later, I arranged a room on the mountain for Lu Fushi. ”
Yu Qinghai spoke.
Two more visitors came down the mountain, one of whom was in the late stage of foundation building.
Yu Qinghai had no time to clone, so he recruited a maid from the Qi refining period to arrange a place for Lu Changan.
"Qinghai, you go get busy first, I'll go to Zhao Daoyou's house to hang out."
Lu Changan had no complaints.
Zhang Tieshan married Dan, there were many celebrators, and the master and apprentice were too busy to work.
The hospitality was not good, but Lu Changan could understand.
From foundation building to knotting, there will be a qualitative leap in the status of monks.
In the huge Golden Cloud Valley, in its heyday, the number of True Dan monks did not exceed two palms.
During the trough period, there were even only two or three True Dan monks.
The fake Dan real person is not considered the top level in Jinyun Valley, but he has already ranked among the top ranks.
Sou!
As soon as Lu Changan left Zhang Tieshan's peak dojo, a fake Dan real person's light flew in the distance, and the momentum was terrifying.
"Uncle Tan......"
Yu Qinghai greeted him with a smile, did not report, acquiesced to the fake Dan real person, and flew directly into the mansion on the mountain.
……
The inner gate of Jinyun Valley, the waterscape cave house with the fragrance of birds and flowers.
Three foundation-building monks, one man and two women, sat opposite each other.
"I guess, Uncle Lu definitely didn't see Uncle Zhang just now."
Zhao Tan'er covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyebrows were like green feathers, and her smart eyes were bent into a crescent moon.
"Tan'er!"
Zhao Siyao scolded lightly and asked the female disciple to be honest.
"Tan'er is telling the truth. Zhang Daoyou has become a fake Dan real person, and the circle of entertainment is different from the past, and it is not something that can be seen at random visits. ”
Lu Changan said calmly.
"Tan'er, Uncle Lu's mentality is worth learning."
Zhao Siyao has been practicing in the sect for a hundred years, and has seen many examples, and many monks can't adapt to this gap in the identity circle in a short time.
"Uh-huh! Uncle Lu's heart is like that thousand-year-old turtle, not impatient or impatient, with thick accumulation, which Tan'er has admired for a long time. ”
Zhao Tan'er's teeth are like shellfish, her face is ruddy and fresh, and she looks well-behaved and respectful.
Lu Changan smiled, hearing that this woman's words were insincere.
The thousand-year-old turtle is a metaphor for Lu Chang'an's slow temperament and slow cultivation.
Zhao Tan'er is also in the middle stage of foundation building, and is about to build to the sixth floor of the foundation, and he is about to catch up with Lu Chang'an, and he will come later.
After chatting for a while, Zhao Siyao talked about Zhang Tieshan's marriage.
"Originally, Zhang Daoyou planned to exchange for a genuine Condensing Pill and wait for a new round of alchemy in Jinyun Valley."
"However, this alchemy is very ordinary, only a genuine and inferior condensing pill."
At that time, Zhang Daoyou had two choices. One is to compete for the genuine Ning Jing Dan; The second is to wait for the next round of furnace alchemy, at least for several years. ”
Hearing this, Lu Changan already understood.
Zhang Tieshan is only three years younger than Lu Changan, so it is not appropriate to delay in terms of age.
Perhaps under some pressure, he retreated to the next best thing and chose the inferior Ning Jing Dan.
"There is a saying in the sect that one of the strong contenders for Ning Jing Dan is a personal disciple of Elder Zhen Dan. Zhang Tieshan made concessions in order to repay the kindness of acquaintance and the beauty of adulthood. ”
"Adult beauty? Regarding this matter, did Zhao Daoyou personally ask Zhang Daoyou? ”
Lu Changan was noncommittal.
Zhao Siyao was slightly silent and said, "How dare Siyao ask Zhang Zhenren in person about such a private matter?" ”
"That's right, Lu lost his words."
Lu Changan realized that he lacked reverence for the fake Dan real person, and he relaxed in front of Zhao Siyao.
Zhao Siyao's psychology is normal.
Even if she and Zhang Tieshan are the same family, they are more familiar with each other and communicate more.
In the evening.
Lu Changan spent the night in a guest room on the mountain.
"There is a saying about the return of chemical pills: the higher the quality of Cheng Dan, the higher the difficulty and risk."
"Zhang Tieshan is doing this, I'm afraid it's not just the beauty of adults, but killing two birds with one stone!"
Thinking of this, Lu Changan added a little conviction to his previous speculation.
……
The next day, Zhang Tieshan's Yudan Xiaoqing was held as scheduled.
There are not many monks who come to congratulate, but the level is relatively high, and there are not a few people in the late stage of foundation building and fake Dan real people.
Lu Changan walked with Zhao Siyao's master and apprentice and came to the mountain peak mansion on the third-order spiritual vein yesterday.
This time, I saw Zhang Tieshan.
This new "Tianfeng real person" personally greeted him from the mansion.
As a fake Dan real person, it is very face-saving to greet the Zhuji monk in person.
"Zhang Zhenren."
Lu Changan and the three of them gave up their hands and sent congratulatory gifts and congratulations.
Zhang Tieshan's gaze stayed more on Lu Changan, and apologized:
"Lu Daoyou, Qinghai mentioned that you came last night, and Zhang was not well entertained, please forgive me."
"It's serious! Zhang Zhenren married not long ago, and it is inevitable that he will have a lot of entertainment. ”
Lu Changan was flattered and said.
"Hehe, Lu Daoyou's title is a little rusty. After Xiaoqing, you and I will talk about it in private. ”
Zhang Tieshan smiled brightly, his slightly dark face was no different from the past, but in the eyes of outsiders, it seemed to contain an invisible majesty.
Seeing the communication between the two, Zhao Tan'er couldn't help but be surprised.
She faintly noticed that Zhang Zhenren's enthusiasm for Lu Changan was not a greeting, and in terms of attention, it even exceeded her mentor.
welcomed Lu Changan and the three of them to the mansion, and Zhang Tieshan went to entertain those real guests.
Lu Changan drank the spiritual tea, secretly observed, and found that Zhang Tieshan had a calm demeanor after the knot, not arrogant or impatient.
That kind of "stability" in mentality, Lu Changan feels the same way.
After knowing each other for more than 100 years, Lu Changan has long seen that Zhang Tieshan is determined and ambitious.
The achievement of false pills, the cultivation is stagnant, and the avenue is hopeless.
According to the usual practice, there may be joy, but deep down there is a little loss and hesitation.
The specifications of this Yudan Xiaoqing are generally relatively low-key.
In addition to celebrating, it is a private communication and networking.
During this period, Zhang Tieshan shared his experience in the process of condensing Dan and explained some of his shortcomings.
This act won the praise of the foundation building monks present.
Zhao Siyao's master and apprentice listened very carefully.
Lu Changan seemed to be immersed in it, and he looked yearning.
……
After the end of the Dan Xiaoqing.
Lu Changan directly said goodbye and left.
He didn't stay, to respond to Zhang Tieshan's words - after Xiaoqing, he will talk about it in private.
Lu Changan is so decisive because of two points:
First, he was sure of his guess and didn't have to test it anymore.
Zhang Tieshan's behavior and mentality are one thing.
From the analysis of the road number "Tianfeng", it can be seen that its ambitions are still ambitious.
The general foundation is formed into a fake pill, and the road number will be relatively low-key, otherwise the virtue will not match.
Zhang Tieshan's road number is actually not public.
That is, Lu Changan, as a person with a heart, will pay attention to this kind of detail when he works backwards from the conclusion.
Second, Lu Chang'an's cultivation and status are far from Zhang Tieshan.
I can't be sure whether the other party's sentence of "recounting in private" is a polite word.
Otherwise, he stayed on the mountain and stupidly waited for the other party's "summons", which would become a joke.
Lu Chang'an's eyes were hot on Zhang Tieshan's secret method of transforming pills, but he was not in a hurry.
When the foundation is built in the later stage, it is not too late to show certain skills and interests, and then negotiate with the other party.
……
A few months later.
The three major peaks of Wuqi Mountain gathered at Xiaogui Peak, and the atmosphere was dignified.
"The border of Liang is blocked by the sect?"
"Lu Daoyou, are you sure of the authenticity of this news?"
Ye Fei was shocked and looked at the man in white who was quiet and indifferent, and had not changed for decades.
The important checkpoint on the border of Liang was blocked by the major sects, and this news came too suddenly, which can be called appalling.
If it weren't for Lu Changan's long-term stability and reliability, the first reaction of the two peak masters would be to question it.
Shi Manrong recovered from his surprise, and his undulating chest calmed down slightly.
"These days, I haven't seen Lu Daoyou leave Wuqi Mountain, where did you get the news?"
"This news comes from the Imperial Beast Zhou family, as well as the Li family of Xuemei Mountain."
Lu Changan did not hide it.
The Li family of Xuemei Mountain is a family of Xiuxian who is the grandson of Li Erqing, "Li Congren", who expanded and established his own door, and is very close to the northwest border of the Liang State.
Li Congren's family even had trade dealings with neighboring Jing merchants.
The border was blocked, Li Congren knew about it as soon as possible, and at the same time sent a message to Feiyue Lake and Lu Changan.
Based on the two sources, Lu Changan determined the fact that Liang Guozongmen blocked the border.
The three peak masters fell into a brief silence.
Liang Guozong's blockade of the border, something big will inevitably happen.
Such a big change is often the level of the war of the Immortal Cultivation Kingdom, and it is likely to affect the fate of Wuqi Mountain and even individual cultivators.
Lu Changan had a guess in his heart, but he didn't say it.
……
Back to Little Turtle Peak.
Lu Changan glanced at the Xuanshui turtle that was lazily diving, and the ground rock rat that was loosening the soil of the Lingtian.
"Let's wait and see."
Originally, Lu Changan wanted to go to Liaoyuan Immortal City and buy information in Tianzhilou.
But when the situation has reached this point, it is better to prepare for the worst.
Many years ago, he had the psychology of coping.
With such a change, I believe that the news will come soon.
"Defend your own one-third of an acre first. Even if the worst happens, it will not spread to the hinterland of Liang so quickly and threaten Wuqi Mountain. ”
Lu Changan, who was one hundred and thirty-nine years old, quickly calmed down.
He took out his pen and ink and wrote letters to Zheng Centipede and Jin Yungu respectively.
Soon, Lu Changan began to concentrate on cultivation and comprehension.
From one hundred and thirty-nine years old to one hundred and forty years old, it was the last year for Lu Changan to leap from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage.
This year was also a turning point in the history of Liang Guoxiu's immortal world.
This year, fly by!
