Chapter Twenty-Three: The Crown of the Four Houses
The age in the mountains is short, and March is passing in a flash.
During this period, the news of Jiang Daolian's invitation to fight Chen Heng had already spread far away under her intention.
I heard that even she was miserable.
The morale of the people in the clan is frustrated again, and the morale is even worse.
Even the arrogant posture of the ordinary people was slightly reduced, and his demeanor became a lot more cautious and cautious, which caused many people in the cold spectrum to celebrate in secret.
And as soon as the news spread.
Chen Heng has also faintly become the leading figure in the foundation building peers, and he is in the limelight.
Parallel with Deng Ji, Xie Su, Sima Quantong, etc. of the other three academies, they are well-known for their time, and are known as the "crown of the four academies".
Such a name even spread to Xiaoming Daze, and Chen Heng received another 100,000 runes and a few bottles of pills, and his pocket became richer and richer.
But no matter how loud the outside world is.
Chen Heng, the person concerned, is still in a simple place and is not easy to show in front of others.
If it weren't for the necessary monthly homework exams and the teacher's teachings, it would be extremely difficult to see his figure......
In addition to meditating in his own cave house.
Chen Heng had to go to the Shen branch of Qingluo Peak every seven days to ask her about the difficulties in Taoism.
One comes and goes.
This became a common practice.
Those who were tempted by Chen Heng's current fame and wanted to invite him to a banquet, a safari, or invite him to travel and earn merit together, saw him in this style, and had to gradually extinguish their minds.
Even though there are some unsavory tricks, it has become more difficult to carry out because of Shen Zhanzhi......
……
And this day.
Lingyin Peak.
Inside the ashram.
Chen Heng's eyes were radiant, he sat cross-legged on the futon, opened his hands, and held a mouthful of red blood mud from Xu Jianfang, and secretly urged the law to be decided, so that the blood mud was wrapped in a cloud of phosgene, and its shape was consumed little by little.
An hour later.
He suddenly let out a clear whistle, and a scarlet smoke rushed out of the top door, and his eyes were red for a while, as if stained with blood!
And with a muffled thunder, the four walls trembled,
The void is also slow.
Ninety-nine eighty-one drops of eroded red water surfaced.
Red and miserable, scorching, eye-catching-
With a move from Chen Heng's hand, these eroded red water began to swirl around his body, radiating a bright brilliance.
He looked closely, and saw that these red waters were full of form, as smooth as pearls, obviously the inside was already full of energy, and when it reached the extreme of the current Xiaocheng realm, there was nothing to add, and he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Eroded red water cannot be created out of nothing.
If it is lost.
It is necessary to collect the spirit of yin erosion and refine it again.
And Chen Heng used several fighting methods, and when he had to defeat Wang Dian, the nine nine hundred and eighty-one drops of Yin Eclipse Red Water in his hand were less than thirty, and half of them were still redundant.
The spirit of the Yin Erosion class has always been precious and rare, and although it exists in the Changying Temple, it needs to be exchanged for merit.
Then.
The golden paper deed he signed with Jiang Daolian was undoubtedly a relief.
However, Jiang Daolian didn't expect that the spiritual power required to erode the red water was so huge.
The Dharma materials sent several times were only capable of cultivating three or five drops of red water, and they could no longer continue.
And this time this red blood mud, called blood mud, according to legend, is in the depths of the earth's heart, after the decay of the spiritual veins, a wisp of spirit happened to be immortal, and contaminated with the nearby evil and extremely cold soil, accumulated over time, only to be biochemical, quite rare, very difficult to find.
Chen Heng saw that after cultivating nine hundred and eighty-one drops of Yin Eroded Red Water, this side of the bloody mud was still full of spiritual energy.
Aside from the slight removal of an edge, the shape did not change much.
Knowing that this bloody mud is indeed a precious thing, Jiang Daolian took out the real treasure, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but bow his head slightly.
……
"It is often said that the family is rich and powerful, and today it is a real experience, and what is the amount of net worth accumulated since ancient times?"
He raised his hand and sent out a true qi, took the bloody mud, played with it for a while, and then put it into the Qiankun bag, and said in his heart.
At this moment, a chime bell suddenly rang softly, and it came from my heart.
If the gurgling water washes it away, it is necessary to sweep away the dust of distracting thoughts.
Chen Heng collected the distracting thoughts and grabbed a small golden bell from his sleeve.
Knowing that the time had come, he got up from the futon and pushed the door open.
After a few breaths, there was a rush of footsteps, from far and near, and then the figure of Tu Shange appeared, and he bowed and said:
"Congratulations to the master on getting out!"
Chen Heng bowed slightly, and said with a smile:
"Today is the time to go to Master Shen's place to listen to the lecture, during these days of retreat, Jiang Daolian has something to ask me?"
"Yes, yes."
Tu Shange hurriedly nodded and said, "She sent a legal interrogation to ask, what kind of magic materials does the master need, let the master explain it once, don't bits and pieces, and disturb her many times......"
That's it.
Tu Shange hesitated for a moment, but still spoke in a low voice:
"She said that the master was very chatty, and it was really annoying and very ......"
"Tell me all at once?"
Chen Heng smiled softly when he heard this, and said lightly: "Since she has asked for this, how can I not fulfill her wish?" ”
Anyway.
Chen Heng thought for a moment, took the letter back to the room, picked up the pen and rustled, and in a moment filled the whole paper and handed it to Tu Shange.
"Wait, sir......"
Tu Shange stretched out his hand to take it, and after just looking at it, his face turned a little shocked.
He opened his mouth wide and stopped.
"Master Shen called, I didn't miss the time, so I took the first step."
As soon as Chen Heng mentioned Zhenqi, he turned into a white light and rose into the air, throwing it towards Qingluo Peak.
Only Tu Shange, who was full of entanglement, was left stunned in place, helpless to squeeze the page of the letter in his hand.
"It seems that today, the old fox, I have to be scolded again......"
Long.
He slowly came to his senses and smiled bitterly.
And the other place.
Chen Heng fell from the clouds, and was led by the maid who had been waiting outside for a long time to wear several palaces, and arrived in a side hall.
I saw the flowers and trees on both sides, and the ancient wood was sensen-
The hall was full of flames, and the gold and red colors were churning endlessly.
In the distance, there is still a heat wave rolling in, making the skin feel slightly hot.
"The disciple has seen the guru."
Chen Heng made a mockery of the people in the hall.
Shen Zhanzhi turned to the side, looked out, and after seeing the person, he nodded slightly.
She sat on the apricot yellow futon, in front of her was a bottomless dark pit, a square bronze tripod hung in the middle of the pit, and there was a fierce fire at the bottom, raging and fierce, and the big tripod was faintly burned with a red color.
Chen Heng saw that the bronze tripod was divided into three layers, each layer was engraved with the image of the sun, moon and stars, Yan Qiao was very, every time the tripod furnace vibrate, it would provoke the light and shadow to be colorful, as if it was about to fall, and it was going to splash countless crumbs of light and color.
"This pit and furnace are the first time I've seen them."
He said in his heart.
"You're here."
Shen Zhizhi waved his hand lightly, and the endless flames and waves under the ding turned into a little golden light, which was put into her sleeve, and then in the pit, there was a cold current, like a snake, and the bronze tripod was wrapped.
In a sharp sound, the sun, moon and stars inscribed on the body shined, like a thousand salvos.
Then.
Shen Zhizhi suddenly raised his hand and pinched it, stopping the abnormal sound for a while.
"Today I will teach you to refine the Water Cloud Pill, and the first weight of the Purple Mansion, also known as the root of the Myriad Spirit, this Pill can nourish and strengthen the spirit, and after cultivating the Purple Mansion, it can be of great use."
She whispered.
"In this way, the disciple will thank the master for his teaching."
Chen Heng bowed and said solemnly.
……
……
Three hours later.
With the last pill in Dingzhong, Shen Zhanzhi also stopped speaking, closed his eyes, and flowed out the meaning of sending off guests.
Chen Heng got up and saluted, made a joke, and said goodbye to Shen Zhanzhi.
He withdrew from the hall and was led out of the Qingluo Palace by a maid.
"Pot puja...... Xie Hui Zhai? ”
Walk on the mountain trail.
remembered Shen Zhizhi's words on the way to alchemy.
Chen Heng's eyes condensed slightly, and he couldn't help but think in his heart.
Shui Yundan is just an addition.
Today's event is not just Shui Yundan, but Xie Huizhai and his pot of puja......
Xie Huizhai wanted to have a big meeting in Changying Courtyard, and invited many fellow disciples to enjoy the flowers and talk about the mysteries together, which had already spread throughout the four courtyards.
The people of the clan do not need to mention it, but they will gladly agree.
The so-called singing to see the xia, more shooting and playing with willows, this is a matter of elegance.
And Xie Huizhai and Xie Tang are from the same 12th generation clan as them.
Since invited.
Then there is no reason to refute his face and live up to his good intentions.
But people like Chen Heng, who have little to do with the world, and even have grudges, don't pay much attention to Xie Huizhai's pot of puja.
Recently, there has been tension between the faction and the clan, and it is no longer as harmonious as it was thousands of years ago.
Controversy is rare.
But there is never a shortage of secret fights.
It seems that they have heard such rumors.
But.
Listen to the meaning of Shen Zhanzhi's words......
"What kind of puja are Xie Huizhai and Xie Tang holding at this time, in order to ease the atmosphere on both sides of the sect and the clan, at least among the junior monks? This matter is not only acquiesced by the faction, but the clan is also happy to see it come to fruition and is willing to contribute to this matter......"
Chen Heng frowned:
"And why am I the 'crown of the four academies', if I don't move forward, I will be seen by someone with a heart and take it out to make a fuss, is it hard to guarantee that it will not provoke other conjectures? The meaning of Master Shen's words was faintly to persuade me to go to the banquet......
But it's funny to think about it. ”
After signing the legal deed with Jiang Daolian, the two were barely in the same boat.
Or from the invitation to the war clan, she guessed Chen Heng's purpose of wanting to be famous in order to protect himself.
Jiang Daolian, under the momentum behind his back, inexplicably gave Chen Hengan the title of "the crown of the four academies", making him on the same level as Deng Ji, Xie Su, and Sima Quantong of the other three academies.
After the news spread.
Chen Heng was surprised at first, but he also felt slightly funny.
But with this prestigious name, there is no shortage of troubles.
For example, today's so-called pot puja.
Chen Heng really didn't expect it.
Is he present at it, but it can still be related to the meaning of the faction?
recalled the embarrassing situation he was in when he was first brought to Xiaoming Daze by Hou Wen.
Look again at today.
Rao is based on his qi cultivation kung fu, and his heart is also full of emotions and thoughts.
He shook his head slightly, and was just about to leave with the light, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a cloudy light, hurrying from the air.
In that cloudy light, there was a vaguely familiar figure.
Chen Heng simply stopped in place, and after a few breaths, the turbid light descended from the clouds and stopped at his side, and in it, Tu Shange's figure slowly appeared.
"Could it be that Tushan Daoyou ate a closed door and returned in vain?"
Chen Heng was not surprised, and said with a smile.
"Master, the one who wants to invite you to Chaoyuan Peak where she lives has a talk, saying that she has something important to discuss with you."
Tu Shange smiled awkwardly and whispered.
"Now?"
"Exactly, exactly."
Tu Shan Ge should be repeatedly.
Chen Heng thought about it in his heart for a while, and after a few breaths, he nodded to Tu Shange, then waved his sleeves and rushed straight to the sky, and in an instant, he disappeared into the mist and disappeared.
After a short time, he retreated from the Lingyin Peak, entered the ashram of the retreat, raised his finger to the wall on the left, and recited the Dharma in his mouth.
Then there was a Dao Huaguang that suddenly appeared, like a fog, and Chen Heng was instantly involved.
This wall is not an extraordinary thing, it is called "Shifting the Square Seal", which is a secret weapon hidden by the Jiang family.
If it is refined, as long as it is within the range of thousands of miles, those who hold the yang scroll can move their bodies to the side of the holder of the yin scroll, and in an instant, they will be thousands of miles away.
And the other way around.
Those who possess the scroll can do the same.
It's wonderful, it's convenient!
After being swept up in that flashlight, Chen Heng's vision was dizzy for a while, and he didn't distinguish between a single thing, nor did he distinguish anything from north, south, west, and east.
But not much.
His vision suddenly lit up, and he was already in a delicate house.
Behind it, on the screen, hangs a picture of a dragon eating elephant.
The dragon and the elephant are both black and white, swaying and dripping, flowing uninhibited, and the fierce and vicious air in it comes out through the paper, as if they want to choose people and devour!
"I've seen Chen Langjun."
The waitress in colorful clothes guarding outside the house hurriedly bowed and saluted after seeing Chen Heng's appearance, and her demeanor was very respectful.
"How could it be here?"
Chen Heng glanced around and said.
This "square shifting seal" is not an immovable, rigid and rigid dead thing, but can be combined with other things at will.
For example, Chen Heng refined the yang scroll into the white wall of the quiet room.
If you want to use it, you only need to pinch it and move your body.
And Jiang Daolian also refined the yin scroll into the wall.
In the past, Chen Heng was in her inner sanctum.
This time it was a different realm, which made him slightly curious, so he also asked in passing.
"My girl said that men and women are not kissed, and they are placed in the inner hall and other boudoirs, and you can come and go at will, but I am afraid that it will not sound good."
The waitress in colorful clothes couldn't help but hide her lips when she heard this, and laughed softly:
"So, my girl made a place for the scroll and put it here......"
"It's understandable."
Chen Heng smiled and said:
"Take me to her."
"Wait, Chen Langjun, please wait for a while, my girl is meeting a foreign guest, if Langjun comes forward, I am afraid that the relationship between you and my girl will be broken by the foreign guest."
The maid said: "My girl specially told the slave family to apologize to Lang Jun, and she didn't expect that foreign guest to visit suddenly after Tu Shange left." ”
"Outsiders? I don't know who it is? ”
Chen Heng stopped his steps and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"That outsider is a member of the Mishan Qiao clan, Xiao Qiao, Qiao Rui."
The waitress explained:
"Xiao Qiao is also a disciple of Yuchen, and now she is practicing in the lower courtyard of Bai Shang, like this, she and Lang Jun are still in the same door."
