14 Lock the Red Mansion

"Senior brother wiped the snow on his shoulders."

Shen Qi put down the dark tide in his eyes, stepped forward and handed the handkerchief to Mu Congyun, smiling gently and harmlessly.

The white snow turned into water before it hit the ground, and the tiny droplets of water fell on the surface of the clothes, leaving a little soaking trace. After being reminded by him, Mu Congyun noticed that there were water stains on his shoulders.

He smiled at Shen Qi and took the handkerchief to wipe it.

After wiping it, he was about to return the veil to its original owner, but found that the veil was a little familiar, and Mu Congyun's eyes showed a little hesitation: "This veil ......"

It seems to be his.

Shen Qi pursed his lips and smiled slightly, lowering his eyes with a shy look: "It's senior brother's." When I came back from Nanhuai Town, my brother wiped my face. I've kept it all the time, don't you remember? ”

He raised his eyes, and the dark eyes reflected the fine light of the sky, which made Mu Congyun feel a softness of heart that wanted to rub him.

Good behaved.

It's a pity that the public is not suitable for getting started. Mu Congyun regretted slightly, and handed the handkerchief back to Shen Qi: "It's just a handkerchief, don't be so careful." ”

Shen Qi put away the veil, pursed his lips and smiled, did not answer, but pointed to the depressed Jiang Li, and asked in a low voice: "Does that person often come to trouble Senior Brother?" ”

That's not it, Jiang Lian looked for him ten times, and nine times he had to pounce on him.

Mu Congyun thought that Shen Qi was frightened, and comforted: "Don't worry, he won't come to trouble again." ”

After speaking, he went to look at Jin Yi on the side and said, "I'll take Shen Qi to Wanjuan Building to select exercises, you go back first." ”

Jin Yi was excited and excited at this moment, but Mu Congyun's body was still surrounded by the sword intent that had not dispersed, like frost and snow, and the cold was pressing. Obviously, it was very ordinary words, but it made Jin Yi shudder, he wanted to get close but didn't dare, he could only look at Shen Qi jealously, and reluctantly said "oh".

Why didn't Shen Qi feel anything at all?

Jin Yi almost thought that his cultivation was too low to be close to him, but he turned his head to look at the Xuanling disciples who were almost ten feet away, and felt that he was normal.

What is not normal is abandonment.

There were more and more disciples on the martial arts arena, Mu Congyun didn't want to stay any longer, grabbed Shen Qi's shoulder and was about to leave, but Jiang Li's voice suddenly came from behind him-

"At the beginning of the 'Genlin Test', you didn't use all your strength, right? I have challenged you several times, do you think it is ridiculous? ”

Jiang Li's voice was heavy and heavy, as if he was being pressed by a thousand heavy stones, and word by word rolled out of his throat with difficulty. The joints of the hand holding the sword bulged, and the green tendons burst out.

He is not a presumptuous person, and his flamboyance comes from outstanding talent and strength. Among the younger generation of disciples of the Sword Sect, he was the youngest, but his strength was the strongest. Everyone said that after a hundred years, the Sword Sect would have one more Sword Immortal of the Supreme Heaven Realm.

Back then, the "Xuanlin Trial" failed in one move, and he thought that Mu Congyun was narrowly defeated.

He went into retreat and penance for five years, thinking that he would be able to get rid of his shame, but he didn't want to bring shame on himself.

The gap between Mu Congyun and him has not narrowed with time, but has become more and more insurmountable.

When the Sword of Sorrow hung silently behind him, he tasted for the first time the bitterness that no matter how hard he tried, he could not match it.

After so many years of chasing, with such a big gap, it's like a joke.

Mu Congyun turned his head with a puzzled expression.

"I gave it my all five years ago, and I will do it five years later." After a pause, he couldn't hold back in the end, and said, "You are not as good as your sword." ”

This is what he has always wanted to say to Jiang Li.

The Yao Sun Sword opened and closed widely, and it was strong and atmospheric, but Jiang Li's mind was too narrow-minded. He doesn't like to associate with such people, but he also doesn't intend to humiliate.

At least his sword deserves respect.

After saying what he wanted to say, Mu Congyun left with Shen Qi.

Tuliu Jiang stood in place, muttering what he said, his expression changing.

The onlookers looked at the white figure from afar, and after a moment of silence, they resumed their heated discussions on topics such as "Senior Brother is worthy of Senior Brother" and "Senior Brother is more handsome than rumored".

I don't think we need to think about new topics when we meet in the next month!

The crowd of onlookers in the martial arts arena dispersed one after another, and only then was he ready to leave after hiding his body to watch the battle.

Before leaving, he saw Zhuge Song staring at his grandson with a worried face, pulled him by the hand, and reminded: "This is his robbery, and others can't interfere." ”

Ten years ago, when Jiang Li came to apprentice, he saw it.

So even if Zhuge Song came to look for him in person later, he didn't let go.

All famous swords need to be practiced, Jiang Ling has been too stable and smooth in the past 20 years, and the sword heart has been deviated, and there will be a catastrophe. If you can pass, the edge of the sword will be sharpened, and if you can't pass, you will stop there.

Cultivators fight for their lives with the heavens, and if they don't advance, they will die.

"I'm not going! I can't do it even if I look at it here?! ”

Zhuge Song is a quick temper, he was already anxious for his grandson, goodbye to the thanksgiving windbreaker fluttering demeanor and a clear appearance of not worrying at all, and couldn't help but say sourly: "You can pick up any apprentice can be born with a sword heart, how can you understand my suffering!" ”

Seeing that he didn't mean to interfere, Xie Cifeng no longer persuaded him, and smiled with his hands and eyebrows: "That is, it's just that the apprentice is too worry-free and lacks a lot of fun as a teacher." ”

"......" Zhuge Song didn't want to pay attention to him.

Be a person.

Xuanling is the head of the Taoist gate, and has been inherited for thousands of years, and there are countless exercises included, all of which are hidden in the Wanjuan Building of Tianlu Peak.

There are a total of nine floors in the Wanjuan Building, and the lower three floors are all introductory exercises and some unique ancient books in the human world, as long as you hold the Xuanlin disciple token, you can check and burn them at will. The middle fourth layer contains the superior exercises that can only be practiced in the realm of forgetting the dust and even the supreme heaven realm. There is a special person on duty, and only those who hold the Town Palace Elder Token can enter and exit. Thereinto. Exercises can either be exchanged for merit points, or they can be rewarded as rewards for meritorious disciples.

As for the upper two floors, the head of the sect personally set a prohibition, and no one has ever stepped into it. What is included in it, Mu Congyun does not know.

It's just that there are a lot of rumors among the disciples, some say that the upper two floors contain the exercises of the Feather Immortal Realm or above, some say that they contain many secret forbidden techniques before the "Eclipse Mist Tribulation", and some say that the formation diagram of the Ten Directions Great Array was once hidden on the top floor of the Ten Thousand Scrolls Building...... There are many different statements, and Mu Congyun can't tell the difference, so he just listens to gossip.

After checking the token, Mu Congyun took Shen Qi directly to the second layer.

"The first layer is a unique ancient book in the human world, if you want to see it, you can come back later."

Shen Qi replied and looked at the layout of the second floor.

The 10,000-volume building is in the shape of a tower, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with bookshelves on all sides, and a staircase extending upwards in the middle is a spiral, obviously there are only nine floors, but when you look up, you can't see the top at a glance, and there is a sense of bottomless trance.

It must have been a formation at the top level.

Xuanlin has been inherited for so many years, and he must have hidden a lot of good things, and he wanted to explore it in his previous life, but he never found the opportunity. When the trip was finally completed, only a ruin remained in the Xuanlin Dao Palace, and the 10,000-volume building naturally collapsed.

Now is a good opportunity.

Shen Qi quietly withdrew his gaze, pretending to be ignorant and curious to read.

Mu Congyun was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so he explained carefully: "Xuanling specializes in magic, swordsmanship, and derivation. The spells are mostly combined with various talismans, among which the Xiaotiangang technique is the main one. There are also many kinds of swordsmanship, but most of them are introduced by Taiyi swordsmanship. As for the art of derivation, very few people learn it, and almost all of them enter the Tao after their own epiphany, and there is no specific teaching of exercises. In addition to the master, there are few people who are proficient in the three. Most of the disciples at the entry stage choose one or two rough courses according to their own qualifications and preferences. There is a school in the two forgotten peaks of the Ming Hall, and there are teachers teaching every day, and the disciples who have just started and have not yet apprenticed are unified in the two forgotten peak schools. After entering the realm of getting out of the shell, you can choose a peak to apprentice and specialize in one subject. ”

"Although you have already worshipped the teacher, but you have not yet entered the Tao, you can also go to Liangwangfeng to listen to the lectures in the future."

Mu Congyun selfishly hoped that Shen would give up learning swords, because he didn't know anything about talisman techniques and derivation, so only swordsmanship could give a pointer.

Shen Qi heard the meaning of his words, but he did not mean to be obedient. He himself used a sword, so naturally it was impossible for him to learn a sword again.

Moves can deceive people, but sword intent is difficult to hide. Pretending to be a beginner swordsman in front of a person like Mu Congyun who was born with a sword heart, it is too easy to be seen as flawed.

From the second to the third floor, Shen Qi paused again after passing through the rows of bookshelves, and after a long time, he picked up a book of exercises, and asked with slightly shiny eyes: "Is this okay?" ”

Mu looked at it from the clouds, and saw that the cover was written "Dial the Clouds and Make the Sun Finger".

The name...... Mu Congyun frowned slightly, and then looked at the content inside, and found that this exercise also belonged to a very out-of-the-way type among the well-known Xuanling.

This practice can only be practiced with a special weapon called the "Ten Finger Ring", in which the ten rings are worn on the ten fingers, and the spiritual power in the body is stimulated by the special rings to form spiritual threads.

In terms of the exercise, if this skill is practiced to the extreme, the spirit power silk can make the clouds and the sun, so it is called "the finger of the clouds and the sun".

This can also be a kind of arithmetic method, but at first glance it is the kind of fancy technique that bluffs but is not very practical.

Mu Congyun looked at Shen Qi without saying anything.

Shen Qi showed a worried look, for fear that he would refuse: "Can't you?" ”

"......" couldn't bear to hit him, Mu Congyun could only draw another Taiyi sword technique and put it in his hand: "Try both." ”

Shen Qi let out an "oh", bent his eyes at him, and happily held the two exercises to burn - the original of the exercises could not be taken out of the Wanjuan Building, only a copy could be burned and taken away.

Mu Congyun followed behind, very worried about the future cultivation path of the little junior brother.

After burning the exercises, the two of them had to choose weapons.

Not far from the Wanjuan Building is the Jianbing Platform, where any new disciple can choose a weapon from the Jianbing Platform. If there is damage later, you need to buy it with merit points or spirit stones.

Mu Congyun led people in, originally wanting to pick a suitable sword for him, but as soon as Shen Qi entered the door, he couldn't wait to ask: "Is there a ten-finger chain?" ”

"Ten fingers in a row? It's a little out of the way, and almost no one uses it. Uncle Shi of the guard tower looked surprised.

Shen Qi nodded: "I want to." ”

"Wait, I'll look for it." Uncle Shi often came out of the treasury after about a quarter of an hour, and handed him a set of grayed rings: "Oh, I really found a set." ”

A set of 10 rings, silver-gray in color, engraved with intricate dark lines, of unknown material, but light and soft in texture. After Shen Qi carefully wiped it clean, he put them on his fingers one by one and showed them to Mu Congyun.

His fingers were white and slender, and his joints were clear. With ten rings, it looks good, but it doesn't seem to be of much use.

It's all bells and whistles.

Mu Congyun hesitated and praised: "Not bad." ”

But I thought that when I went back, I would have to find out the sword I had used.

Shen Qi looked at his expression, hooked his lips imperceptibly, and squinted his eyes to carefully examine the silver gray ring.

Of course, he didn't just choose such a set of cold exercises to hide that he had learned swords, but because he had learned this exercise in his previous life, and he also happened to have a set of rings.

Spiritual power gathers silk, which can kill people and kill people, destroy withering and decaying.

It's called "Lock Red Mansion".
