Qiao Yuan looked at the ancient city not far away, and he couldn't see the edge at a glance, and his eyes showed excitement.

He grew up in Qingfeng Village since he was a child, and he had never seen such a big ancient city, even if it was a corner of the ancient city that he could glimpse now, it was enough to be dozens of Qingfeng Village, which made him smack his lips again and again, and was amazed.

Lin Wanyuan saw Qiao Yuan's excited gaze, raised his hand and pointed in all directions of the ancient city, and introduced it to him.

"Engong, this Xicheng is where our Lin family and some other families are located. This northern city is a commercial area, with restaurants, inns, pharmacies, and pawnshops, and the southern city is a gathering place for some civilians, and the Tang family where Tang Ji is located is in this eastern city. ”

Qiao Yuan stood in a condescending position, overlooking the entire Huayun City, swept through the four urban districts of east, west, north and south, nodded at Lin Wanyuan, and said with an embarrassed smile.

"I said that you should not be called Engong, just call me Qiao Yuan, and so are you. ”

Lin Wanyuan smiled: "Yes, Engong...... No, Qiao Yuan. ”

Lin Wanyuan and Lin Wankang are both older than Qiao Yuan, only Lin Qing'er is younger than Qiao Yuan, so Lin Qing'er has always called Qiao Yuan "Brother Qiao" and never changed her words.

Clear-eyed people could see at a glance that Lin Qing'er was interested in Qiao Yuan, so Lin Wanyuan and Lin Wankang smiled every time they saw Lin Qing'er's shy expression.

If he hadn't met Mingruo, Qiao Yuan might not have understood Lin Qing'er's intentions, but now he also understands some things about men and women, so he was quite helpless about Lin Qing'er's careful thinking, so he could only pretend that he didn't understand anything.

Everyone entered from the north city gate and walked directly into the bustling commercial area, Qiao Yuan looked left and right, very curious about everything.

Lin Wanyuan and the others also saw that Qiao Yuan seemed to have entered the Grand View Garden, he didn't understand anything, he was very curious about everything, and they didn't mind, explaining to Qiao Yuan as they walked.

"Brother Qiao, this is a sugar gourd, it's very delicious, you can taste it. ”

"Qiao Yuan, this drunken immortal building is the most famous restaurant in Huayun City, and the drunken immortal wine in it is rumored that even if the immortals drink it, they will get drunk, it is very wonderful, I will take you to taste it another day." ”

"Oh, this drunken fairy wine is really so wonderful? ”

Everyone chatted, Lin Tai walked at the back, with his experience of reading people, he naturally saw that Qiao Yuan was a man of the mountains and wilderness, and he had never seen the world at all, and some of the worries in his heart were slowly put down.

After a while, everyone came to the door of a large mansion, and the plaque above the gate of the mansion had two big characters written on it: "Lin family." ”

This house looks quite quaint, as if it has experienced a hundred years of wind and frost. The gate of the house is three zhang wide and five zhang high, and it looks full of heaviness.

"Eun Gong, please!"

Lin Yi stretched out his right hand forward and made a "please" gesture.

Qiao Yuan glanced at this indifferent middle-aged man, and told him not to call him Engong before, but this Lin Yi was like a tendon, so he didn't change his words, Qiao Yuan smiled helplessly, and walked into the door.

Everyone passed through the halls, and as long as they met people on the road, they would salute Lin Yi and Lin Tai.

It wasn't until he came to a corridor after walking half a stick of incense that Lin Yi stopped and turned to Qiao Yuan to speak.

"Engong, my third uncle and I have to report the situation to the head of the family, so please go to the guest room with Wan Yuan and them to rest for a while, and after the report is completed, I will definitely receive you in person." ”

"Wan Yuan, Wan Kang, you find a comfortable and spacious guest room for Engong to live in. ”

Qiao Yuan nodded, and followed the two of Lin Wanyuan, who were quite excited, Lin Qing'er glanced at Qiao Yuan, and was just about to follow, but was stopped by Lin Yi.

Lin family lobby.

"Hmph, damn Tang Ji, it's too much of a deception. ”

In the middle of the lobby sat a bearded middle-aged man, after listening to Lin Yi's report, this bearded man opened his eyes angrily, and directly slapped the wooden table on the side with a grin.

The bearded man exhaled a few breaths, slowly calmed down his anger, looked up at Lin Qing'er who was sitting next to him, showed a soft light in his eyes, and spoke softly.

"Qing'er, are you alright?"

Lin Qing'er shook her head, and said lightly: "Daddy, it's all because Qing'er is willful and doesn't listen to your advice, which gives that scoundrel a chance." ”

"It's all because Daddy is useless, even you can't protect it. Your mother left early, and now it's ...... Alas!"

The bearded man shook his head, his eyes showed guilt, and he spoke softly, saying that he couldn't go on, sighed, and fell silent.

Lin Tai stepped forward and said expressionlessly: "Don't be too pessimistic, the news here is too closed, Wantian was in a coma a few months ago, maybe he has woken up now, but the news has not come." ”

Lin Yi also stepped forward to comfort a few words, but he was not good at words, so he fell silent after saying a few words.

The bearded man nodded, turned his head to look at Lin Yi, and said with a smile: "Where is that Qiao Yuan young man you said, take me to meet him." So be it, prepare the feast, and I will thank him personally in the evening. ”

At the evening banquet, everyone sat around a table, the bearded man sat in the middle, Lin Qing'er sat on his right side, Lin Yi and Lin Tai sat on his left side, and Lin Wanyuan and Lin Wankang sat on both sides of Qiao Yuan.

In addition to these people, there was also an old man with gray hair, who seemed to be older than Lin Tai, and a middle-aged scribe who was shaking a folding fan.

The bearded man first picked up a small glass of wine and gestured to Qiao Yuanyi, then said a few words of thanks and drank it all.

Because Qiao Yuan has been drinking at Uncle Tie's all year round, he has drunk all kinds of strange wines, and this wine is naturally not in words, but also drunk it all.

Everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, chatting about some strange things at will, and after three rounds of drinking, the bearded man felt that the time was right, so he asked.

"Shaoxia is a good drinker! Dare to ask where Shaoxia came from?"

"The family is a person in the mountains and wilderness, and the name is not worth mentioning. ”

Qiao Yuan naturally wouldn't tell the truth, so he was perfunctory at will.

"Then where is the young man going?"

"The tutor asked me to go out of the mountain to practice, and I haven't gone anywhere for the time being, so I plan to stay in this Huayun City for a while. ”

"Oh! If Shaoxia doesn't dislike it, he will stay in my Lin family for the time being. ”

"Then thank you to the Lin family master. ”

Qiao Yuan drank some more wine, and after eating something, he said that he was a little tired and returned to the guest room.

The bearded man sent Lin Qing'er, Lin Wanyuan, and Lin Wankang away, and said respectfully to the gray-haired old man: "Second uncle, what do you think of this person?"

The white-haired old man chuckled, nodded and said, "One hairy boy, available." ”

The middle-aged scribe shaking the folding fan shook his head, showed a solemn expression, and slowly spoke.

"What the second uncle said is right, this kid really doesn't understand anything, but I think he is full of confidence from beginning to end, this person still don't offend. ”

Lin Tai picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said with a chuckle: "Wen Mo is too worried, through my observation of him along the way, although this Qiao Yuan has some cleverness, he is obviously not deeply involved in the world, and he can be used to deal with the Tang family." ”

Lin Yi heard these people discussing how to use Qiao Yuan behind their backs, and immediately snorted coldly, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all, directly smashed the cup to the ground, and left the hall without saying a word.

When everyone saw this scene, they shook their heads with a wry smile, and they were not in the mood to discuss the matter anymore, so they dispersed.

Qiao Yuan sat in the guest room and clearly detected the scenes that happened at the banquet after he left, including Lin Yi dropping his glass and leaving.

"What Grandpa Xiao said is right, it's really sinister, this is still the mortal realm, what about the cultivation realm?"

Qiao Yuan muttered to himself, and stopped thinking about the Lin family.

After reaching the eighth layer of qi refining that day, it was impossible to reach the ninth layer of qi refining in three months, but in the end, he took an elixir given by the old man Zhan to temporarily improve the power of his physical body.

After taking this elixir, one needs to endure great pain all the time, so this elixir cannot be used in battle, and although it is suitable for cultivation, ordinary people cannot endure this kind of pain.

With his extremely tenacious heart, after being in a coma more than ten times, Qiao Yuan tapped his potential to the maximum, and his body slowly adapted to the severe pain, and finally broke through the ninth layer of qi refining in two and a half months.

After a month of consolidation and recuperation, his body had returned to its best condition, and Old Man Zhan originally planned to send Qiao Yuan directly to the Yuehe Sect, but he refused.

The reason why he asked Xiao Fengqing to put him a hundred miles away from Qingfeng Village was that he wanted to get out of the dense forest with his own strength, so he also refused Old Man Zhan.

However, considering the time for the Yuehe Sect to recruit disciples, he asked Old Man Zhan to send him to the periphery of the dense forest, but he didn't expect that he only met the Lin family after only one day's journey, thinking that there were still ten or so days, he decided to stay in Huayun City for a few days first, and see this prosperous world that he wanted to go to in his dreams. He slowly recalled what happened after leaving Qingfeng Village, more than a year had passed in a blink of an eye, he had originally planned to get out of the dense forest in half a year, but he didn't expect to stay at Old Man Zhan's place for more than a year.

This year was very important to Qiao Yuan, first of all, his cultivation broke through to the ninth layer of qi refining, and his physical body became much stronger under the impact of the waterfall.

The second is that he is more proficient in the use of the two spells of Ruo Feng Xing and Feng Blade, and now he can condense eight wind cyclones behind him, and maintaining eight wind cyclones is very spiritual energy, but its speed is enough to compare with the monks in the late stage of foundation building.

The art of the wind blade, he now condenses five or six with a stick of incense, which can be said to be easy, if he concentrates on condensing the wind blade, he can polish and condense a wind blade in a hundred breath time, and under the use of both hands, a hundred breath time is two wind blades.

He also refined the Earth Spirit Shield that Old Man Zhan gave him, and now he can use it as he pleases. After that, he also selected a few spiritual weapons suitable for Qi refining from Yang Yan and the others.

The most important thing is that Qiao Yuan can enter the realm of the micro-heart, this realm is a level higher than the realm of the deep heart, which is of great help to the cultivation of the exercises, and mastering the realm of the micro-heart is even more important than the improvement of the cultivation realm.

Qiao Yuan summed up the changes in the past year, which can be said to be very different.

When he first left Qingfeng Village, he would only have two spells, Ruo Feng Xing and Feng Blade, although he still only had these two spells, but he had some spiritual treasures available, his physical body had also strengthened a lot, and the means of fighting would not be so single.

"Although the Spirit Wind Technique is good, it is only a basic introductory exercise, and you can only learn the next 'Wind Rise' technique when you reach the foundation building period. ”

After Qiao Yuan finished speaking, he took out a black brocade bag and took out a jade pendant from it, which was carved with pavilions and pavilions, and there was a big "Ming" character on the front.

"Mingruo, how are you doing now?"

Qiao Yuan rubbed the jade pendant with both hands, his eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and muttered.

After a stick of incense, Qiao Yuan let out a long sigh and probed his divine sense into the jade pendant, and suddenly a mantra of exercises that was more difficult and obscure than the spirit style recipe appeared in his mind.

Six extremes of Ming Wang Gong.
