Chapter 118: Nine Heavens Ring
"The crane counts as a thousand years of life, and the pine age is eternal spring!"
Speaking of which, Qi Jingzhi, who lives in Xiaosongshan, Songling County, is no stranger to this, whether it is to celebrate the birthday of the elderly or post Spring Festival couplets for the New Year, many people in the county like to use these two sentences, in order to please a good fortune.
It's just that before that, he was preconceived by the combination of cranes and peach blossoms, and secondly, it was also dark under the lights, and he never thought that the small pine forest that was commonplace since childhood would have anything to do with the "Immortal Feather Sutra", and even after hearing the title of "Ten Thousand Pine Winds", he still didn't think about it after finding that it was very suitable for a song.
Who knows that this seemingly ordinary auspicious sentence was actually written into the annotation of the score of "Ten Thousand Pine Winds", is it a simple coincidence, or does the person who made the annotation have another deep meaning?
For a while, countless thoughts arose in Qi Jingzhi's heart, and the more he thought about it, the more shocking he became.
"Lu Yunzi, who mastered the fragment of the "Immortal Feather Sutra", died in Xiaosong Mountain in Songling County, and I, an ordinary hunter in the mountains, just had a small bronze mirror hidden in my body that had never moved, and flew out on my own to refine Lu Yunzi into a spirit corpse, helping me learn the "Immortal Feather Sutra"!"
If Qi Jingzhi felt that the opportunity was scattered and wonderful a moment ago, then at this moment, he only felt terrifying and terrifying.
"Miss Mu, dare to ask who wrote the "Wonderful Heavenly Sound Score", and who left the annotation of the score of "Ten Thousand Pine Winds"?"
As if he had expected Qi Jingzhi to ask such a question, Mu Yingxian immediately shook his head and said, "I know what you want to ask, as far as I know, the Lingmiao Heavenly Sound Spectrum is not the inheritance of Xianyu Mountain."
"This set of music scores was obtained by accident when I was a child, and it is extremely secretive and incomplete, especially the names of the people and geography involved in it have been erased, and I don't know who compiled it, who made the notes, and I don't know who deleted and kept it."
As he spoke, Mu Yingxian turned his head to look at Qi Jingzhi, and added: "Actually, there are two music scores I found at that time, one thick and one thin, the thick one is the "Lingmiao Tianyin Spectrum", which includes both the score of the Fuhuang five-stringed piano and the score of the Ji clan's Wenwu lyre, oh, the Jiang clan calls it the Yanhuang Qizheng Qin."
"In short, the ages of these scores are very different, and the styles are also different, so they should have been collected by a certain Taoist family over the years."
"The other thin one is a five-string book, which is the Yanhuang Zhu Xiang's "Flying Dragon Calling Lin Spectrum", which is different from the "Lingmiao Tianyin Spectrum", this latter book is very complete, and there has been no deletion at all."
Seeing Qi Jingzhi's look of surprise, Mu Yingxian couldn't help but chuckle: "Brother Qi thinks well, Lin Pu is what I gave to Deng Suo. Except for a companion flying sword, he can be said to have no long things on his body and two sleeves with a clean breeze, what can he do to exchange for someone's heart of a red wood tree?"
"Now that he has changed to the heart of the tree, I think he is hiding and retreating, otherwise I should have heard the name of Brother Qi from him, and I would not have caused the misunderstanding before."
Qi Jingzhi still cares about Deng Fuqing's whereabouts at this moment, since Mu Yingxian said that the "Lingmiao Tianyin Spectrum" should have nothing to do with Xianyu Mountain, if there is really something hidden behind him getting the "Immortal Feather Sutra", this suspicion will most likely fall on the bronze mirror.
Thinking about this verse, he couldn't help but set his eyes on the turquoise Yaoqin across the girl's lap. The scene that appeared out of thin air in the previous piano is so similar to the bronze mirror!
As a result, Qi Jingzhi still raised a question that he was most concerned about tonight in a slightly roundabout way: "Miss Mu, I see that this qin is quite miraculous, could it be that it is a spiritual weapon that can only be refined by those great supernatural powers?"
This question was obviously unexpected by Mu Yingxian, she glanced at Qi Jing a little strangely, and then shook her head: "This is my companion qin spirit, and it is not a spiritual weapon now."
"Companion Piano Spirit?"
Qi Jingzhi felt his heart skip a heavy beat, and immediately asked, "What is the companion qin spirit? Miss Mu had mentioned Senior Deng's companion flying sword earlier, although they were all companions, but in my opinion, the two didn't seem to be quite the same?"
Mu Yingxian's mind was clear, and she immediately noticed that Qi Jing's mood was different.
This time, she thought for a moment before explaining, "Brother Qi should have just stepped into the second realm, so it's not uncommon not to know this. In fact, there is nothing unusual, there are some people in this world who are lucky, and when they are born, they will be accompanied by spiritual things, which is called companionship
。」
"There are generally two kinds of companions, one is more common in spirits raised by nature, such as Deng Suo, which is born from the same root as the Bi Tao Flying Sword, and can be used as soon as it transforms, and it is a natural sword immortal seed."
"Most of these companions are qualitative and spiritless, a bit like the corpse of a spiritual weapon that has lost its spirituality, and needs to be cultivated by the owner of the instrument with the help of his own spirituality. Some are very special, and even require the owner to ascend to the spirit platform after entering the third realm to attract the lost spirit in order to achieve the spirit weapon. As for what the Lingtai is, and how to lead it, in order to prevent Brother Qi from giving birth to cognitive obstacles, I won't go into details."
"There is also a kind of contemporary, which is the opposite, that is, the spirit of a certain artifact that does not come of its own accord and accompanies its owner. Most of these spirits do not have visions at the beginning, and they are only nourished in the main body of the instrument, and they can only manifest together with the mind of the master when the second realm of the instrument master is completed."
"This latter kind of companionship is mostly seen in the blessed human race, and I have heard that there are those who have jade, those who carry swords, those who carry totas, and those who hold bells...... In short, there are many tricks and powers."
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't suppress the throbbing in his heart.
The latter situation mentioned by Mu Yingxian, except that the timing of the manifestation is wrong, the rest of the description is similar to the bronze mirror!
As for the timing of manifestation, Mu Yingxian said that most of them are so, but it can be seen that there are exceptions. I think it was because the mirror surface of the small bronze mirror was damaged, and it needed to be repaired urgently, like Qi Hu Chan, so it had to be manifested in advance.
It is naturally not easy to manifest in advance, and it is no wonder that the mirror always does not see the rabbit and does not scatter the eagle, even if the true form is revealed with the help of the dream in the pillow, it is still possible to not move, and his Qi Jingzhi's cultivation is too low, so it is common to not move.
At the same time, mirrors have always only been interested in spiritual things, and they have always swallowed spirits and kept corpses, perhaps just to eat something to make up for something, which is another proof that mirrors are companion spirits.
Qi Jingzhi's long-held heart finally let go of some of it. The bronze mirror is not an evil, but a companion mirror spirit, which is undoubtedly the best result for him. As for whether it is or is not, it will be clear when his mind is manifested in the future.
Thinking of this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but think of Qi Hu Zen and Chijin Zhu.
Although Mu Yingxian's qin spirit and his own mirror spirit have their own gods, they are more like artifacts than living things. Compared with these two accompanying spirits, Qi Hu Zen, as an extension of Qi Jing's spirituality and mind, is more inclined to the gods born of sacrifices, and the snake and tiger on the red gold bead that like to eat gold are obviously very similar to the golden and jade essence of the white gold rat.
"This artifact alone is already infinitely mysterious, I really don't know how many strange peaks and wonderful scenery there are on this cultivation path!"
Qi Jingzhi was quite excited, and he groaned slightly, drawing inferences: "I roughly understand that only those who have spirit and quality can be called spiritual weapons. The former kind of companionship that Miss Mu said is that there is a quality first, and then the spirit is nurtured and summoned, and the latter is just the opposite?"
After playing the piano and talking for a while, Mu Yingxian was not only surprised by Qi Jingzhi's superb understanding of music and practice, but also gradually got used to his keen thinking and flying out of the sky from time to time.
She didn't think anything about the young man's distraction, she just looked at him with a smile and nodded, "Not bad! After the associated spirit is manifested, the owner of the instrument must follow the diagram to find the corresponding spiritual material to refine the embryo, and then merge the instrument spirit and the embryo into one."
"Although there is a sequence of steps, in the end, they are the same way, and no matter which one it is, in order to completely fuse the instrument and the spirit and refine it into a perfect and flawless spiritual weapon, it is necessary for the great monk of the fourth realm to ignite the Dao fire."
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but be surprised. Zhu Yihou and Deng Fuqing's supernatural means are only the third realm, if you want to refine the spirit weapon, you have to cultivate to the fourth realm, no wonder Zhu Yihou wants to raise some dragon and ship ghosts.
He couldn't help but sigh, "This is too high, no wonder I have heard people say that the spiritual weapons in this world are extremely precious and rare."
"Not necessarily, for those who dwell in the plains do not see mountains, and think that there are no mountains in the world, or that the little mound in front of their house is a mountain. This kind of mentality is a taboo for my generation of monks."
Mu Yingxian's eyes were scorching, and her voice was sonorous: "Brother Qi is extremely talented, and in time, you will definitely be able to see the real mountains and peaks that connect the sky!" When you reach the top, look back at the road you came from
I know what it means to "live with dragons and snakes"!"
Qi Jingzhi was silent when he heard this, repeatedly recalling the true meaning, and then nodded solemnly: "Thank you, Qi Jingzhi has been taught!"
With his intelligence, he naturally knew that Mu Yingxian's words had been said as tactfully as possible. This mysterious girl seems to regard herself as a bosom friend because of "Ten Thousand Pine Winds", so she is so heartfelt.
Of course, Qi Jingzhi is willing to be friends with Mu Yingxian, but whether he can do it depends on whether he is a dragon or a snake after all.
If one is at the top of the mountain and the other is at the foot of the mountain, separated by thousands of pine waves and thousands of clouds and mountains, and there will be no day to see each other again, then everything will be suspended.
Mu Yingxian didn't seem to take Qi Jingzhi's thanks to him, and continued with a slight smile: "If you are really anxious, you can naturally find the master of the fourth realm to refine the weapon on your behalf. However, most people with great perseverance and ambition will not take this shortcut......
"They tend to wait for their cultivation to arrive, refining it with their own Dao fire, and finally achieving the most suitable innate natal weapon! Before that, the companion spirit was more like a magical spell unique to the owner of the instrument than a weapon."
Qi Jingzhi almost immediately thought of the refining power of the bronze mirror, and immediately nodded, and couldn't help but smile on his face: "Miss Mu has never asked a teacher to do it for her, so she is also a person with great perseverance and great ambition?"
"That's nature! Without such ambition and determination, how would I be worthy of this yaoqin, and how could I play the wonderful heavenly sound?"
The beautiful girl is straight and bright, and she admits it neatly.
She smiled suddenly, and changed her tone again: "Actually, it's not necessarily bad to take shortcuts, what I said earlier is somewhat standing and talking without backache. Just because my companion spirit is a harp, I don't need to fight hard like a blade, and the power to play the music with it is enough, so I can naturally afford to wait for others."
"In addition, I have never found all the spiritual materials for making the violin, and I can't take shortcuts."
Listening to Mu Yingxian's words, there was a great supernatural power of the Fourth Realm behind her, Qi Jingzhi was not surprised by this, but took it for granted. z.br>
"I don't know what spiritual materials are needed for Miss Mu to make a violin?" He immediately asked, so that he could have a reference in the future.
"To refine an innate natal weapon, it is natural to choose the spiritual material that is most suitable for the spirit of the instrument, and on this basis, the more rare and miraculous, the better. Take my piano as an example......
Mu Yingxian showed the Yaoqin in his hand to Qi Jingzhi: "I named it "Jiuxiao Huanpei", its shape is the most ancient Fuhuang style, the strings should have been five strings, but they can be manifested into seven strings, which should be influenced by my preferences when they are raised, and they are also indispensable to the credit of "Lingmiao Tianyin Spectrum".
"Wonderful Heavenly Sound, Nine Heavens Ring...... It's a perfect name. In this way, the accompanying spirit is not solidified when it is born, but changes according to the owner's mind and exercises?" Qi Jingzhi immediately asked, this is related to whether the mirror can be repaired well.
"That's nature! As the owner of the instrument, I should be able to make changes to the instrument. If it doesn't go my way, how can it be refined into the most suitable innate natal device for me?"
Mu Yingxian's face was slightly raised, with a proud look on her face, and she was about to flip the body of the piano, pointing to the top of the back of the piano and saying, "This is the moment when I achieve my heart!"
Qi Jingzhi followed what she was pointing at, and saw that there were four quaint seal characters engraved with "Nine Heavens Huanpei", thinking that this was the way the girl named the companion qin spirit, which was really domineering.
Mu Yingxian's finger moved horizontally, pointing to the bottom of the "Nine Heavens Ring Pei" and said, "The rest of these inscriptions were there when the Qin Spirit was manifested, and the words and sentences are all from the "Lingmiao Tianyin Spectrum"."
Qi Jingzhi then looked at it, and saw that below the four seal characters, there was a column of small characters on the left and right.
Engraved on the right: "Not in the world of famine, Yang Xi Taigu people." With my ears pure, hear this primeval sound."
Engraved on the left: "Beyond the sky, ride the void to float." Joyful Tai Chi, why worry about it?"
"The four sentences on the right have helped me to achieve the bones of my heart. The four sentences on the left helped me survive the catastrophe of the gods."
Mu Yingxian told the story, even if it was the secret of her own cultivation, she didn't hide it in the slightest: "This
Both words were engraved before the manifestation of the qin spirit, and they were related to my practice, but I can't change them, but what is engraved in the future must be decided by me!"
She pointed to the large blank space on the back of the piano, and her tone was proud and firm: "I have now thought of four lines of poetry, and the day it is engraved will be the time when the Nine Heavens Ring Pei is born!"
The girl's tone is really not small, and the implication is that when she engraves the four lines of poetry, she will definitely be able to step into the fourth realm, become a great supernatural power that ignites the fire, and refine the Nine Heavens Ring into an innate natal weapon.
"Great! Miss Mu's cultivation is profound and ambitious, and she is just around the corner to step into the fourth realm!"
Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but slap his hands in admiration, and then the conversation changed and the old words were repeated: "The only thing to worry about is that the refining spirit materials are not yet complete, and I don't know what rare materials are needed to make such a treasure qin?"
This is which pot is not opened, Mu Yingxian's expression was stunned, and then he glanced at him with some shame: "The rarest spiritual materials are naturally the pearl of the emperor's green, the horn of the divine deer, the silk of the silkworm king, and the stem of Tongjun!"
The names of these spiritual materials are quite bluffing, and Qi Jingzhi is naturally unheard of.
"Chop the tung for the piano and the rubber into the strings, there is nothing to say about the last two, the more precious the better. The first two are the ones used to make the gray tires of the piano......
Mu Yingxian flipped the Nine Heavens Ring back, pointed to the turquoise warm lacquer surface and explained, "The so-called gray tires are mostly made of lacquer and antler cream, which not only makes the piano surface look good and not easy to wear, but also has a great impact on the timbre."
"The so-called deer antler cream is a powder made by boiling deer antlers into glue and grinding the remaining bone residue. Luthiers often add pearl powder, lapis lazuli powder, turquoise powder and the like to the antler cream to make eight treasures gray tires, which make the surface of the instrument dazzling."
"I've already thought about it, silk and tung can still be settled, but this gray tire can't be sloppy at all! In the future, the gray tire of Jiuxiao Huanpei must be made of deer antler cream made of divine antlers, and then add the powder of the Emperor Blue Orb! I must make Jiuxiao Huanpei the most beautiful piano in the world!"
In the end, Mu Yingxian's eyes were extremely bright, like a galaxy.
