Chapter 246 - Recruiting Relatives by Competition

Mrs. Qi smiled for a moment and teased: "Feng'er, your chess skills have really made great progress - you can still win Mu Wanjing!" Li Chenxiang and Chu Chenwei also covered their mouths and laughed.

After chatting a few more words, Mrs. Qi's expression was solemn, and she said, "Feng'er, do you know - a few days ago, an elder of the Jindan Jiupin of the Zongwei Military Department was killed by his concubine. ”

"Oh?" Liang Feng said in surprise.

Mrs. Qi was distracted for a moment, and then said: "Feng'er, I remember that a few years ago you advised me to 'be kind to the people around you', at that time, I didn't think so, it seems that what you said is right - if the people around you are resentful, it is really dangerous." ”

"Mother is wise!" Liang Feng responded - Mrs. Qi is peerless, her cultivation is not low, and she has a lot of power, so she must be full of flowers and smiling faces at a glance, and it is not easy to listen to the words of the contrary at this time.

"Mother, I'm not wise at all - it's been more than fifty years since I advanced to the fifth grade of Jindan, but I can't advance to the sixth grade of Jindan again, if I can't advance within five years, then ...... That...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's ......" A look of deep sorrow appeared on Mrs. Qi's face.

Liang Feng sighed in his heart, this cultivation path is really cruel - Originally, Mrs. Qi was also a genius and brilliant figure, and when she advanced to Jindan, she could rank in the forefront of the monks of the same period, but she was inadvertently blocked by the seemingly inconspicuous small threshold of Jindan five to Jindan six.

After being silent for a moment, Mrs. Qi sighed again and said, "Senior Sister Ling Mei has already advanced to the sixth rank of Jindan two years ago, and now she has gone to the Azure Gate to become the master of the Sutra Book Pavilion, and she may soon be able to advance to the seventh rank of Jindan again." ”

Liang Feng's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Mother, last time you said that the Dao Heart has not yet reached the requirements for advancement, so it can't be advanced......?"

As he spoke, he slowly took out a bottle of four 'Three-Turn Pulp Washing Pills' and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "Mother, you can eat two of these elixirs and take a look, maybe you can achieve enlightenment and advancement after eating them - last time I gave two to Uncle Peng, and if you eat it, you will be able to advance to the seventh grade of Jindan." ”

Mrs. Qi picked up the elixir and examined it, squeezed out a smile and said, "Feng'er, you have a heart! What kind of elixir is this elixir? It looks pretty good." ”

He smiled bitterly and said, "But how can there be any elixir that can be enlightened after eating?...... Oh, there seems to be a kind of elixir called ...... It is called 'Cleansing Pill', and it is said that it is easy to realize the Tao after eating, but the elixir has been lost. ”

Liang Feng laughed proudly twice, and said with a mysterious look: "Mother, this elixir seems to be the 'Three-Turn Washing Pill'!"

Seeing Mrs. Qi's expressions of shock, confusion and joy, he explained: "Mother, this bottle of elixir was also obtained from the monk of the Golden Pill period that day. However, at that time, I was very skeptical that this was the 'Three Turns Pulp Washing Pill', so I caught a little white rabbit and tested two - although the little white rabbit was safe and sound, there was no obvious change, so I threw the elixir aside. ”

"Later, Uncle Peng said that it would fall if it couldn't advance anymore, so I gave it a lot of elixirs and let it eat it, and it turned out to be advanced......"

"This elixir shouldn't be poisonous, mother, you can eat it!"

took out a piece of jade slip and put it on her forehead and read it for a while, then Mrs. Qi poured out a milky white elixir with a misty glow, examined it carefully on the slender jade hand for a moment, and muttered: "The color, smell, aura and other characteristics are all the same, it is really a 'three-turn marrow washing pill'!?"

Liang Feng nodded and said, "It should be, mother! In addition to the common elixirs such as the high-grade barrier-breaking pill, the longevity pill, and the medium-grade nourishing pulse pill, only this elixir is more special. ”

"Great, great!" Mrs. Qi immediately put away the elixir, and then hugged Liang Feng's head in her arms, and said excitedly: "Feng'er, you are really a good son of my mother!" ......

Walking in the large garden between Mrs. Qi's house and his room, Liang Feng thought in his heart: "Now Mrs. Qi doesn't doubt herself at all - in this case, she should keep the situation as stable as possible, and the 'Three Turns Washing Pill' that Mrs. Qi gave just now is to maintain the stability of the situation." ”

Mrs. Qi is Dongfang Qingfeng's mother, as long as Mrs. Qi's cultivation is refined and her status is stable, then she will shelter Dongfang Qingfeng from the wind and rain and create good cultivation conditions for him, and if Mrs. Qi can't advance and her life span will be exhausted, then Liang Feng will have to often directly face the late Jindan elders in the Dongfang family and Dongfang Liangxin in the middle of the Dongfang family's ancestor Yuanying, in that case, the risk will increase drastically.

“...... Could it be that the 'Three Turns of Pulp Washing Pill' was given to Mrs. Qi just to keep the situation stable?" The thought flashed in his heart, and he gradually broke out in a cold sweat - he found that he seemed to like and enjoy Mrs. Qi's love more and more, and he seemed to feel that he was Dongfang Qingfeng, and giving her the elixir was supposed to be filial to his mother.

“...... Malegobi, he is pretending, pretending!" he reminded himself again in his heart.

Early in the morning of the second day, Mrs. Liang Fengqi and the two flew towards the fourteenth peak of Shenmu in a royal boat.

After passing through the light curtains of several magic circles, and being illuminated by the 'True Form Treasure Book' of a late Jindan monk, they entered a palatial mansion next to the peak.

Walking through the large garden where all kinds of spiritual flowers bloomed, they sat down in the hall again at the beckoning of a deacon. There were already several people sitting in the hall, and when they saw Mrs. Qi's mother and son coming in, they all got up and greeted them.

Liang Feng also greeted Han Zhongli, Ao Taiguan, and Zhongli Changsheng, and said secretly in his heart: "It's strange, it seems that they also came to see Shangguan Zhang's envoy because of Shangguan Qiushui, could it be that Shangguan Zhang's order makes one daughter marry more?......"

After waiting for a while, several more pairs of mothers and sons came one after another, all of them were the young masters and their mothers who were in charge of the envoys or deputy commanders, such as Xie Zhenggan of the Municipal Yi Ministry, Zhao Zhengyi, and Zhao Zhengyi, the deputy envoy of the Legal Training Department.

A handsome and extraordinary-looking Jindan Jiupin monk with a hint of arrogance in his eyes came out of a door, greeted everyone, and said: "My granddaughter Qiushui is the age to grow up to be married, thanks to the attention of all the young masters here, they all want to marry my family Qiushui, but there is only one Qiushui in my family - this is a bit difficult to do!"

Said to Mrs. Qi, who wanted to speak and stopped: "It's the nephew of the Dongfang family, right? Don't worry, my ancestor will give you an explanation later." ”

After a pause, he asked: "Do you have any good strategies - a good way to solve my family's choice of a son-in-law, and at the same time convince everyone and not hurt everyone's harmony?"

The ten young masters and the mothers of the ten young masters present all stared at each other for a moment, and said, "But it is up to the officials to make the decision." ”

"Okay! My ancestor means 'to recruit relatives by competition',...... Oh, it's not a test of cultivation, it's easy to cause damage and hurt the harmony, and some powerful moves can only be used between life and death, and the daily competition can't reflect the real strength. "That Shangguan Qiushui's grandfather, Shangguan Yichengdao.

“...... Yes, yes, what the senior Shangguan said is, what should I do?"

"All the young masters are proficient in the way of playing, right? Then let's try to compete in Go - here are ten Go life and death problems, each young master to solve independently, if which young master is the best, and has the approval of my family, then immediately make a marriage; if there are two or more people with the same score, then play a game against each other, and the winner advances, how about it?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Qi stood up and said, "Uncle Yi Cheng, this ...... This doesn't seem to be very fair—my son Qingfeng is not good at chess, isn't this competition a clear discrimination against our Oriental family?"

Ao Taiguan's mother also chimed in: "Yes, yes, my son Taiguan is the same. ”

Shangguan Yicheng smiled and asked, "Then change it to an alchemy competition?...... That rune contest ?...... No, that's a test of the technique?...... Seeing that there were objections to each of them, he spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Then you say, what is better to try?"

Suddenly, the voice in the hall rose an octave, and ten women tried to convince the others to support their own competition, but of course they were all in vain.

In the end, Shangguan Yicheng said: "There are the most supporters of the test Go, and it is also the most convenient - then let's try Go." ”

Seeing Mrs. Qi's unpretentious look, Liang Feng couldn't help but feel warm and moved in his heart - Mrs. Qi really loves 'him' very much!

He comforted him: "Mother, try to play Go, it's okay, even if you lose the child, you won't be able to marry a wife, right?"
