Chapter 4: Fixation
"Brother Xu, I didn't expect you and I to really have a goodbye day. I don't know if it was because the qi did not recover after the all-out shot just now, or the old people were in a stirring mood when they saw each other, and the old man spoke with a slight trill.
"Yes, yes, the former boy is now a congenital master, and he has a great business, which is very good. Xu Jingtian replied with a smile.
"Brother Xu made fun of me, I haven't seen you for decades, I'm already old, but you are still the same as you were back then, the separation between immortals and mortals is really like a moat. ”
"Okay, you and I will catch up later," Xu Jingtian still smiled lightly, turned to the group of people who were still kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up." ”
Only then did everyone get up, but they all stood with their hands tied, not daring to raise their heads.
Xu Jingtian first said to the emperor: "It's a good job, the world is still surnamed Li." ”
The Emperor was horrified and thanked.
"Hokusai, Nanjin. ”
When the two heard this, they took a half step forward, bowed and replied:
"Hokusai is incompetent and has nothing to gain. ”
"Nan Jin's fate is shallow, and there is no chance. ”
Xu Jingtian just nodded, and the two of them returned to their original positions and stood with their hands tied.
"Do you have anything to gain from waiting for the four factions?"
Wudang, Qingcheng, and Xuanhuo replied in unison: "The immortals forgive their sins, and they don't get anything." ”
At this time, Mrs. Zhishui pulled a little girl about six or seven years old forward, gave a deep salute, and then returned to her place without saying a word.
Xu Jingtian saw that this little girl was born Zhong Lingjunxiu, standing timidly, but couldn't help but peek at himself curiously, and immediately felt good.
Without waiting for herself to ask, the little girl actually gave a salute first, and the courtesy was thoughtful, and she said: "Zhu Ling'er has seen the immortals." ”
Xu Jingtian said softly: "Okay, get up." ”
Then he flipped his palm, and a white bead the size of a fist appeared in his hand, and the mist inside the bead was churning, which was quite mysterious.
I saw him throw it lightly, and the bead flew up in the air and hung three inches above Zhu Ling'er's head.
After a while, the mist inside the bead rose, and the bead gradually turned a blue color, and bursts of water vapor spread.
Zhu Ling'er was a little scared at first, but gradually sat cross-legged in the steam, with a calm and calm look on her little face.
Xu Jingtian stretched out his hand, and suddenly the water vapor dissipated, and the bead returned to its previous appearance, falling steadily into his hand, and disappeared without a trace in his palm.
Then, a white jade porcelain bottle appeared in Xu Jingtian's hand, and without any movement, the porcelain bottle actually flew in front of Zhishui Shitai.
Seeing this, Zhishui took it with both hands after calming down her mood very hard, put it away with her body again, gave a deep salute, and then led the disciples to leave, not even looking at Zhu Ling'er who had been looking at her.
When the other three factions and others saw this, they also bowed deeply and left.
Hokusai and Nanjin glanced at each other and were about to retire, but the old man spoke: "The two virtuous brothers might as well stay for a few more days, and the three of us will have to get drunk before resting." ”
Xu Jingtian smiled slightly, noncommittal.
When the two heard this, they looked at each other and smiled, and Hokusai then said, "Big brother, don't feel sorry for the wine. ”
"Hahaha, Fu Lai, take the two virtuous brothers and this little girl Zhu Ling'er to the guest room to rest, don't slack off. ”
The chief butler, who had been waiting outside the courtyard, immediately came in, replied respectfully, and led the three of them towards the guest room, without looking up from beginning to end.
"Alright, let's call the little one out. Xu Jingtian said with a smile to the old man after everyone left.
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from Brother Xu. Qing'er, I came out to see Grandpa Xu. The old man smiled slightly wryly, and then beckoned softly to the room behind him.
Yuan Qing was depressed by his grandfather who had been locked in the house all day since he got up in the morning, and he had just peeked at the "fairy means", and he had long been fascinated by it, and when he heard his grandfather shouting, he trotted all the way to his grandfather, and after saluting Xu Jingtian, he looked at this immortal generously.
Xu Jingtian looked at Yuan Qing carefully, and then said: "Not bad, yes, the foundation at a young age is extremely solid, it seems that you have cultivated some method of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the Yuan, and there are still many medicinal powers in the limbs and hundreds of bones that have not been transformed, and you must have really put your heart into it." ”
Yuan Shouyi laughed and said nothing.
Xiao Yuanqing looked up and down, as if he was looking for something.
As if seeing through the doubts in his heart, Xu Jingtian smiled slightly, and took out the previous bead with his backhand.
When Xiao Yuanqing saw the bead appear, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was full of infinite curiosity about this bead that would disappear and turn blue after a while.
"This is called the Spirit Bead, which can determine what kind of heaven and earth vitality affinity and affinity the person is connected to, and the affinity degree is very high for the little girl just now to the water attribute weather vitality, so the bead is blue. Relax and stand still. ”
After speaking, Xu Jingtian cast the spell as before, and the spirit bead floated above Yuan Qing's head, and then the beads became white, green, blue, red and yellow, which was very good-looking.
When Xu Jingtian saw this, he frowned slightly, and Yuan Shouyi couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xu, is there something wrong?"
Xu Jingtian didn't take back the spirit bead, and after taking another look at Yuan Qing, he said: "The vitality of heaven and earth is called the spirit; However, the vitality of heaven and earth is so complicated, so the closer one is, the purer the spiritual root, and the smoother the path. The five-color spiritual root, the vitality is mixed, and it is not an innate Dao body, and it is impossible to become a Taoist by great chance. Do you understand?"
After pondering for a while, he said: "Instead of letting this child fight for that glimmer of opportunity to become enlightened, it is better to stay in the mortal world, and it is easier to enter the innate realm with his qualifications, which is better than ......."
Suddenly, there was a sword roaring, high-pitched and melodious, suddenly nine turns, such as soaring up to the nine heavens, its sound became clearer and clearer, in an instant, the sword resonated, and the sound of the sword roar within a radius of ten miles was endless.
Xu Jingtian drew talismans in the air and shouted softly: "Seal." ”
Suddenly, the sound of the sword dissipated, and then looked at Xiao Yuanqing, who was sitting empty at this time, with no sadness or joy on his face, no thoughts and no thoughts.
Xu Jingtian took back the spirit bead, looked at Yuan Qing who woke up and didn't know what happened, and exclaimed: "The sword roars nine turns, ten thousand swords surrender, the nine spirit sword body, the avenue can be expected!"
"Brother Xu, what is the Nine Spirit Sword Body?" Yuan Shouyi touched Yuan Qing's little brain and then asked.
"The so-called Nine Spirit Sword Body is an excellent spirit body for practicing kendo, and it is naturally affinity for kendo, and it enters the realm very quickly. Xu Jingtian paused for a moment and then said, "Yuan Qing should go back to Xuanyuan with me, what do you think?"
Yuan Shouyi glanced at Xiao Yuanqing lovingly, and then asked, "When will Brother Xu leave?"
"I'll come back in two months and take them away. Xu Jingtian replied calmly.
Yuan Shouyi was just silent after hearing this.
"Dad," but it was Yuan Zhengye who hurried to the backyard, "The child seems to have heard the sound of the exchange of gold and iron weapons, and then the sword in the room shook, but what happened?"
"Nothing happens, no need to panic. You take Yuanqing back to rest. Yuan Shouyi waved his hand.
"Yes. Yuan Zhengye immediately beckoned to Yuan Qing, "Qing'er, come here." ”
Yuan Qing listened, glanced at his grandfather, saw that his grandfather nodded slightly, and then walked towards his father, and suddenly stopped after taking a few steps, and actually bowed down to Xu Jingtian, his face was full of solemnity.
When he got up, he returned to his childlike appearance, and jumped up and walked towards his father. The father and son laughed and went back to the room.
Xu Jingtian calmly accepted the salute, and after Yuan Qing and the others left, he smiled at Yuan Shouyi and said, "Shouyi, come and tell me your story over the years." ”
Yuan Shouyi smiled, didn't answer, walked to a corner of the courtyard, stretched out his hand to grab it, only to see a jar of wine break out of the ground, and with a shock, all the dust on the altar body fell, revealing the green jade altar body, and then turned around and replied to Xu Jingtian: "How can there be no wine?"
Xu Jingtian laughed, drawing talismans in the void, but seeing the fog on the flat ground, the fog formed into clouds, and as soon as the clouds were supported, Yuan Shouyi and Xu Jingtian rose into the air.
Xu Jingtian waved his sleeves, the tables and chairs appeared, and there were two wine glasses made of cloud qi on the table.
Yuan Shouyi's heart was shaken, and he only felt incredible.
But then he cleaned up his mood, patted the mud open, poured wine into the banquet, and said to Xu Jingtian: "This is the immortal wine I accidentally found in a mountain cliff cave when I traveled in my early years. At that time, his skills were still shallow, and after just a small sip, he fell asleep for three days and three nights, and when he woke up, he found that he had increased his skills for ten years out of thin air. At that time, I found a secret place to hide the wine, and only when I settled in Chang'an City did I take out the wine and bury it in the backyard, and now it has been 30 years. Brother Xu, please taste. ”
Xu Jingtian picked up the wine glass when he heard this, only to see that the wine was as green as green bamboo, the fragrance of the grass and trees was light and elegant into the lungs, and the entrance was delicate and warm, and then a burst of warm and moist qi traveled through the meridians, and it actually had the merit of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, and he couldn't help but admire: "If it can be brewed by ordinary people, it is a good wine!"
Yuan Shouyi also took a sip, and at this time his face was already crimson, and he replied slightly drunk: "I don't know its original name, I don't have to worry about it." ”
"Worry-free, for mortals, drinking this wine is really worry-free, good name. ”
"By the way, Brother Xu, there was also a book, a rune sword and a small bag that were found with this wine at that time. There seems to be a certain immortal sword trick recorded in the book, but unfortunately I am not talented, day and night for decades, only to understand a style of sword method; ”
As he spoke, Yuan Shouyi took out a palm-sized book from his arms and the small sword of the village chief and handed them to Xu Jingtian.
Xu Jingtian took the book and the small sword, and carefully measured it, only to see that the small book seemed to be made of some kind of animal skin, with a smooth and tough surface; the rune sword was slightly cool in the hand, as if it was made of dark iron; as for the small bag, it could be recognized at a glance as a storage bag.
After opening the book and browsing for about a stick of incense, Xu Jingtian closed the book and said to Yuan Shouyi: "What is recorded in this book is an ancient sword scripture, and it is really not easy for you to understand." If what I expected is right, this rune sword is a half-finished flying sword, and it is a necessary item for sword cultivation. As for this bag, it's just a storage bag. The storage bag is used to store rare items, and I also have one with me. Do you want me to open the storage bag?"
"There's Brother Lao Xu. ”
Xu Jingtian nodded slightly, took the bag and wiped it casually, and there were many more minerals on the cloud table, with different sizes and shapes.
"It seems that the owner of this storage bag was a sword cultivator during his lifetime, and most of the minerals stored in the bag were used to refine flying swords. With a wave of his hand, the minerals on the table vanished.
"Brother Xu, are these useful to you?"
"I practice the way of talismans, and these things are useless to me. Xu Jingtian paused, "It's your grandson, born with a Nine Spirit Sword Body, which is very suitable." ”
Yuan Shouyi listened, laughed, and raised his glass to toast: "Thank you, Brother Xu." ”
Xu Jingtian just smiled slightly, took a sip and said, "It seems that you have really had a lot of opportunities over the years." ”
Yuan Shouyi put down the wine glass with a smile, and told Xu Jingtian how he roamed the rivers and lakes after Xu Jingtian left, how he married a wife and had children, and created the great foundation of the Yuan family today.
It was the Yuntai conversation about the red dust and invited the moon to drink the fairy wine.
By the time the old man woke up in his room, it was already the early morning of the third day, and Xu Jingtian had long since disappeared.
The old man called the housekeeper to ask where Hokusai and the others were, and the housekeeper returned to the two of them the next day, and saw that the old man was still asleep, smiled bitterly, and left a sentence of "After ten years, I will get drunk again" and left.
Zhu Ling'er has been in the house, and she has been playing with the young master for the past two days, and she seems to have a good relationship.
The old man pondered for a while and said, "Call Zhengye to come over." ”
"Yes. ”
After a while, Yuan Zhengye came.
"Zhengye, you go and make arrangements, take Su Hua, Qing'er and Zhu Ling'er, and set off in three days to travel around the Tang Dynasty. ”
Yuan Zhengye was a little stunned at first, and then seemed to understand something, and said that he went down to make arrangements.
Three days later, a luxurious carriage was parked at the gate of the Yuan Mansion, and the car was rich and had everything.
Yuan Zhengye was helping his wife, who was more than seven months pregnant, to get into the car, and the old man stood in front of a horse in front of him and looked at Yuan Qing and Zhu Ling'er who were happily playing.
When everyone in the car was settled, the old man flew on his horse and said, "Let's go." Say
After finishing lightly clamping the horse's belly, go first.
The group talked and laughed, and slowly walked out of Chang'an City.
