Section 21 Offering Treasures
After contemplating and thinking for a moment, He Zhou asked, "Did he say why he wanted to see me?" ”
The Tsing Yi attendant replied truthfully: "No." ”
He Zhou did not immediately reply.
He sat upright in his chair, raised his left hand and gently twisted his chin, his gleaming gaze indicating that he was a little uncertain.
To be honest, Hezhou was not very willing to meet Yang Tianhong.
The monk's understanding of the word "value" is very different from that of the layman.
If Yang Tianhong had already stepped into the threshold of qi refining, it would not hurt to see it. After all, he was only nine years old, so who could have predicted what he would achieve in the future?
This is equivalent to forming a good relationship in advance.
But then again, there are so many people in the outer hall, not to mention those who are nine years old, and even those who go up the mountain at the age of four or five, but they still have no hope of cultivating, which is equivalent to the laity.
He Zhou found many memories related to Lu Weiye from the depths of his mind.
Among them is the scene where Lu Weiye took Yang Tianhong up the mountain.
"Yang Tianhong ......"
"Master Lu ......"
"Hehe, interesting."
He Zhou raised his head and instructed the attendant in Tsing Yi: "Bring him in." ”
……
The residence of the master of the hall is very luxurious. Although Hezhou has been abandoned by the Sect Immortal Master to some extent, in any case, he is a foundation building monk after all, so it is normal for him to be extravagant in terms of ordinary materials.
He Zhou did not summon Yang Tianhong in the inner room.
He changed into the hall master's regular clothes that he usually wore, which was a very delicate black tiger pattern deep coat with a hard shoulder cage, and after wearing it, the whole person highlighted his majestic momentum.
The summoning place is located in the main hall, which is also the place where Hezhou usually conducts official business.
Only those who are close to each other are eligible to enter the inner hall. Although Hezhou usually makes occasional publicity, most of the time it is cautious. He didn't want to lead to gossip on these small issues, which would lead to some kind of unforeseen potential danger.
The Tsing Yi attendant took Yang Tianhong into the outer hall.
Looking at He Zhou sitting on the chair, Yang Tianhong didn't want to bend his knees very simply, touched the ground with both hands, and knocked his head three times.
"I wish the hall master all the best."
The other party's first words and such a posture were completely unexpected by Hezhou.
He was slightly stunned, his eyes couldn't help but widen, his pursed lips also opened a slit, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The title "Master of the Hall" sounds a bit strange.
In the Guiyuan Sect, the position of "hall master" is actually equivalent to the steward. No matter how high or low the cultivation is, everyone usually refers to each other as "brothers and sisters", and there is never a "adult" or "inferior" statement.
At most, a prefix will be added, such as "Brother Cousin".
As for "adult", that's a secular title.
As for kneeling, it is not a common ritual.
Only when you meet the immortal master above the Jindan class will you kneel and worship.
Because they have truly entered the ranks of the "immortals".
Whether it is a Qi refining monk or a foundation building monk, the most they usually see is to bow their hands.
But no matter what, Yang Tianhong's actions and rhetoric are indeed very useful in Hezhou's view.
He couldn't help but think of his past highlight moments, the feeling of being sought after by everyone and being in the spotlight, which he hadn't experienced for a long time.
He Zhou's gaze at Yang Tianhong was much gentler than usual.
There was even a rare smile on his face.
Stretching out his left hand, he made a gentle gesture of lifting his palm upward: "Get up!" You and I are all in the same door, so there is no need to make such a big gift. If the head immortal master knows about it, he will definitely punish me, saying that I treat my junior brother harshly. ”
Yang Tianhong raised his head, and a smile appeared on his slightly round and immature face: "Then I still call the hall master a senior brother?" ”
After all, Hezhou is a hundred-year-old elder, seeing Yang Tianhong such a cute child, pity arises spontaneously, and although the previous guard in his heart is there, it is no longer so important.
Of course, the key factor in this is the relationship between Yang Tianhong and Lu Weiye.
On that day, Hezhou clearly heard Lu Weiye pointing at Yang Tianhong and saying: He is my servant.
The servants of the Jindan Immortal Master, even if they are given to a secular prefect, they may not necessarily be changed.
With a faint smile on his face, He Zhou asked, "Say, what's the matter with me?" ”
Yang Tianhong glanced at the Tsing Yi attendant standing next to him, and said cautiously: "Please also ask the hall master and senior brother to retreat." ”
He Zhou subconsciously narrowed his eyes and stared at Yang Tianhong for a few seconds.
Again, he was surprised.
This means that Yang Tianhong has confidential matters to discuss with him.
A mere nine-year-old child actually understands this?
If it were someone else, Hezhou would definitely be more careful.
Yang Tianhong was different back then, not to mention that he still had the blessing of Lu Weiye's invisible aura.
Thinking of this, He Zhou waved his hand to the Tsing Yi attendant and ordered, "You go down first!" ”
Only Yang Tianhong was left in the hall.
With a brisk step, he walked to Hezhou, took out an item from his pocket, held it in both hands and respectfully sent it over: "Senior brother, this is a treasure I found in the cemetery. ”
Treasure?
It's not an ordinary word.
Yang Tianhong held a walnut in his palm.
He Zhou sat in his chair and did not move. Although he had a smile on his face, he did not hide his sarcasm.
Just a walnut, when he is a layman without knowledge?
He didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of mana from the walnut.
If it weren't for Lu Weiye's scruples about Lu Xianshi, and Yang Tianhong's actions just now, He Zhou would have turned around and ordered people to be blown out.
The previous good impression of Yang Tianhong is gone.
In fact, he was quite expectant to see this child late at night.
Courageous, likeable in appearance, and most importantly, reasonable, very good at talking.
For the world, the word "treasure" is relatively simple.
Not to mention jewelry, even if it is a piece of gold, it can be called a treasure.
But when it came to the monks, such mundane things as gold and silver were no longer interesting.
A treasure with real mana, a high-grade elixir, a wonderful spirit fruit from the previous year, an immortal stone containing mana, and a spirit rune drawn by a master of the Dao...... These things can be called treasures.
It's just such a rotten walnut, why are you teasing me?
He Zhou put away the smile on his face, leaned forward, looked down at Yang Tianhong condescendingly, and his words revealed Sen Sen's coldness: "Little junior brother, what do you think is the place in Mian Jintang?" ”
"Don't think that when you are young, you can act recklessly in front of me."
"Although I will not directly order you to be killed, I can punish you in the name of 'fraud' according to the rules of the door. A hundred boards will be beaten, and the living will be turned into pulp. ”
"Say it! Who sent you? ”
"Who is behind the instructions for you to do this?"
Regarding this matter, He Zhou has his own logic.
The cultivation waste wood of the Guiyuan Sect is not one or two, and these people who have no hope of cultivation will set their sights on Mian Jintang. If it weren't for his strength at the first level of foundation building, he would have been replaced by them a long time ago.
There are two main competitors.
One is the eighth order of qi refining, and the other is the ninth order of qi refining.
As long as the head of Hezhou is dismissed, the successor will definitely be one of them.
Disturbing the mind is a very common practice.
Cultivation pays attention to the word "purity".
Imagine that while you are meditating, someone suddenly comes to your door, and you have to come forward to greet you and greet you...... When the guests left, the day had almost passed, and they were still talking about fart cultivation.
This is the same as your home code word suddenly the roof leaks, when doing homework, I was called by my mother to help with the kitchen to help stir-fry, and my girlfriend's sister paper made out at a critical time, and suddenly the doorbell rang, and someone was outside calling to check the water meter.
Once or twice, you can endure it; Three or four times, I always have a kitchen knife at hand, but due to laws and regulations, I can at most show it to scare people; Five times or six times, then there is nothing to say, and from then on I don't care about anything, I see you and cut you once.
Don't think that you can get together with the same door. Envy, jealousy and hatred are the eternal truths that exist in any space-time world.
If you are abolished, I can only get on.
There are many ways to mess with the mind, and assigning children to play with them in front of them is also one of them.
It seems ordinary, but it works.
Yang Tianhong is really a child.
There were already faint beads of sweat on his forehead, and it didn't look as easy as it appeared on the surface. In those dark black pupils, the pupils were rapidly expanding and contracting due to extreme panic, and the bloodshot on the eyeballs was still increasing rapidly.
"Senior Brother Hall, I'm ...... I don't mean anything else! ”
He hurriedly lifted the walnut and held it high above his head, with an undisguised cry, almost shouting: "This is really a treasure!" I really kid you. Even if I were given a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare! ”
He Zhou observed the change in Yang Tianhong's expression intently, and felt that the other party did not look like a fake.
Is it really that I am thinking too much?
Yang Tianhong's face was full of fear, and he defended repeatedly: "Senior brother, my words have no basis, but you just need to take this walnut and feel it." ”
He Zhou frowned, looked at it with scrutinizing eyes for a long time, and slowly reached out to take the walnut from Yang Tianhong's palm.
The moment his fingers touched the walnut, all kinds of bad speculations and ideas in the mind of He Zhou, who had seen extraordinary, were completely shattered like a hammer smashing glass.
Immediately, it was replaced by unprecedented shock and shock.
There was a chill in his fingertips.
On this hot night, it feels so soothing.
He Zhou hurriedly held the walnut into his palm, closed his eyes slightly, leaned back, leaned back on the back of the chair, and felt the indescribable coolness.
That kind of heartiness is far more than eating watermelon on dog days.
Although the monk can use spells to make ice, the coolness produced by the ice cubes can only be applied to the outside of the body. The coolness of holding walnuts in your hand goes deep into the bone marrow and is very enjoyable.
Hezhou's surprise bill, his own Dao heart was even affected by this coolness and changed.
If you say that you are diligent and have gone too far, it has indeed improved.
At least the feeling of this moment is so obvious.
He Zhou opened his eyes and asked impatiently, "Where did this thing come from?" ”
Yang Tianhong hung his back, as if he had been bullied, standing there trembling, and his speech became stammering: "I...... I dug it in the mountains. ”
