Chapter 4 Cleansing Pill
This move has no warning, it can be described as a sudden change in the wind and clouds, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
Bai Cheng only felt that the blue light flashed in front of him, a strong wind struck, and his throat was faintly numb, but he was a human being in two lives, and his kung fu of concentrating was not trivial, although he was not in a panic at this moment, his body shook and his feet stepped on the gossip, he did not retreat but advanced, deceived himself and progressed, and rushed to the right side of Liu Zhuyun, and then his right hand was exerted from the spine, transmitted through the shoulder and elbow, and threw his hand into a whip, and took Liu Zhuyun's right elbow, and then the palm was like a snake twist, and with a stroke, Liu Zhuyun's center of gravity was deflected and fell forward.
Seeing that Liu Zhuyun was about to fall, she only heard a light smack in her mouth, and her waist was rolled, like a cloud, and she rose into the air in an impossible way, and then her waist and abdomen exerted force, and the two show feet kicked to Baicheng's throat one after the other, making it Xiao Hanshan's proud kung fu "Xiangjun Pick the Curtain", this move leg method is Xiao Hanshan's predecessor master Guan Qianchao Guo Gu Kaizhi's "Xiangjun Treading Wave Map" realized, when the move is made, such as people in the mist, if there is nothing, the opponent often has not time to notice, and has been hit.
Bai Cheng saw that her moves were powerful, and he didn't want to take it hard, so he bent his knees slightly, retreated, flashed these two feet, and at the same time made a strong force with his right hand, throwing Liu Zhuyun diagonally upward, and then used Liuyun footwork, like still water boating, slid behind Liu Zhuyun, and used his palms to exert a shallow force, pushing Liu Zhuyun, who was still in mid-air, and floating out three feet away.
Liu Zhuyun has been learning art in Xiaohan Mountain for a long time, and he is the best at light skills, although he was thrown in the air at this moment, he did not panic, he bent his waist slightly, and he had already fallen to the ground, and then put on a posture, ready to rub his body and fight again.
Bai Cheng smiled lightly and said, "Second Sister Liu's kung fu is good, but this joke is a little too much."
Liu Zhuyun's face turned cold, and he said ruthlessly: "Who is joking with you!"
Bai Cheng smiled, but did not speak.
Liu Zhuyun saw him laughing at himself, his cheeks turned crimson, he snorted lowly, turned around and stomped his feet, and ran away.
Bai Cheng saw Liu Zhuyun running away, and he could only smile bitterly on the spot.
Although Liu Zhuyun made a sharp move, Bai Cheng knew that she had no killing intent, this was not Bai Cheng's own guess, but the characteristics of his cultivation of the mind.
Bai Cheng's practice of "Breaking the Jade and Returning to the Yuan", the theme of "Holding the Candle to Shine Away", takes the meaning of the ancient dragon candle nine yin, "the mouth holds the divine candle, illuminates the darkness in all directions", and is best at sensing the emotions, actions and changes of qi in others.
Maybe it's because the second is a human being, and the spirit is stronger than ordinary people, since Bai Cheng practiced this martial arts, he has entered the realm very quickly, although his skills are not as good as Bai Tiehan back then, but the purity of his tricks and the sensitivity of his feelings have surpassed Bai Tiehan's back then, not only can he know the moves and emotions of his peers, but even the qi reactions of several qi practitioners in the door can also be perceived.
Seeing Liu Zhuyun walking away, Bai Cheng stood in the pavilion and said loudly: "I don't know which junior brother is here, please show up." ”
Before Bai Cheng's words fell, a white-clothed boy came out of the purple bamboo forest, this person was wearing a white silk robe, a long sword hanging from his waist, a azure burden on his back, and a Xiaoxiang bamboo flute in his hand, and said with a smile: "Little brother Jiang Yifan, I have seen Senior Brother Bai." ”
Bai Cheng thought for a moment and asked, "I don't know what Senior Brother and Elder Jiang call each other. ”
Jiang Yifan smiled: "It's the little brother's uncle." ”
Bai Cheng asked, "But somehow, why did Senior Brother Lao Jiang wait in the forest for a long time?"
Jiang Yifan laughed and said: "The junior brother was ordered by his uncle to wait for the senior brother in front of the palace early in the morning, but when he saw that the senior brother was asked to leave by Senior Sister Liu, he had to follow. ”
Bai Cheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "I have never had any contact with Senior Uncle Jiang in Xia, but I don't know what to bother my junior brother to wait. ”
Hearing Bai Cheng's question, Jiang Yifan took off the burden behind him, and said: "Three years ago, Elder Bai took a righteous action in Jianghua Mansion to destroy the evil master Lie Beishan, and the people of Jianghua Mansion are still grateful. It's just that Liebei Mountain still has two sworn brothers, which are the same black list masters 'Ten Thousand Miles Alone' Fan Fan Fan Brother More than a year ago, my uncle learned that the two were haunting the Qingfeng Mountain area, so he went to search, and met with the two of them, so he retrieved their weapons and asked me to bring them to Senior Brother Bai. ”
With that, Jiang Yifan handed the burden in his hand to Bai Cheng.
Bai Cheng stretched out his hand to take the burden, and Chong Jiang Yifan arched his hand and said, "Elder Jiang is high-minded, Bai Cheng will not dare to forget." ”
Jiang Yifan saw Bai Cheng take over the burden, arched his hand and said, "Since the words have been spoken, the junior brother will go back to his life." ”
After speaking, Jiang Yifan didn't say much, turned around and walked back into the forest.
After putting away the baggage, Bai Cheng heard a bell ringing, so he got up and walked towards the Patriarch's Palace.
Walk into the main hall, only to see a person in the middle of the hall is sitting in danger, the face of this life is like a crown of jade, eyes are like a star, five locks of long beard under the chin, more elegant, dressed in a green robe, holding a folding fan, it is the contemporary head of the Feixing Gate Liu Qingshan.
There is a person sitting under Liu Qingshan's left hand, this person is delicate and handsome, with a light fur, and he looks about forty years old. Bai Cheng guessed in his heart that this person was only afraid that it was Jiang Fanghe.
There are two people on Liu Qingshan's right, but Bai Cheng knows each other, one is Cheng Shiming, the elder of the Gong, and the other is Lu Baoshi, the elder of law enforcement.
Bai Cheng stepped forward and bowed to the end, and said loudly: "Bai Cheng meets the head and the elders. ”
Liu Qingshan said with a smile: "It's good to come back, it just so happens that there is something to announce at the door today, you can also listen to it." ”
After speaking, Liu Qingshan pointed to the person on the left and said, "This is Elder Jiang, you meet for the first time, Elder Jiang has learned from the past and the present, and his martial arts are wonderful, so you have to ask for more advice in the future." ”
Bai Cheng nodded yes, turned around and saluted Jiang Fanghe again.
Jiang Fanghe looked at Bai Cheng, owed slightly, and said, "You are Bai Cheng, our Flying Star Sect head disciple? ”
Jiang Fanghe's voice was clear, like hitting jade, Bai Cheng guessed in his heart that this person's voice had the voice of gold and jade, if it wasn't for the strange martial arts, it was the practice of qi kung fu that was extremely pure, and his gestures caused the breath to stir, and this internal strength cultivation was not under Bai Tiehan back then.
After a few words of greeting, Liu Qingshan waved his hand and asked Bai Cheng to retreat first and wait beside the hall.
After another moment, seeing that all the disciples who had entered the room had already come to the hall, Liu Qingshan said, "I called you here today to tell you the rules of this year's big competition. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Qingshan paused, took out a mutton fat jade box from his body, put it on the table, and then opened the jade box, only to see that the box contained three red pills.
Liu Qingshan pointed to these three pills and said, "A few days ago, our Flying Star Gate was fortunate enough to get three pills of the marrow cleansing pill, so I discussed it with the three elders, and planned to use these pills as prizes for this year's big competition. ”
Hearing Liu Qingshan talk about the big competition, Bai Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, he is now embarrassed in the Flying Star Gate, in the hearts of many people, he is already the future leader, so he never participates in the competition in the door, this time Liu Qingshan actually asked him to participate, I don't know what the plan is.
After Liu Qingshan finished speaking, Elder Cheng continued: "Washing the marrow of the Dan rivers and lakes is rare, it has the effect of washing the marrow of Yi Jin, if the martial artist of the Yi Jin Realm can eat one pill, it is worth a year of hard work, it is by no means comparable to ordinary pills, when today only the Rejuvenation Valley of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Donglin Temple of Chen Guo can be refined, and the materials required for refining medicine are very rare, and the annual output of these two places is also very small, mostly for their own use, and rarely flows out, so it is very rare in the rivers and lakes, even if some people are willing to ask for a thousand gold, it is also priceless." These three pills, Senior Brother Liu did not come easily, you must work very hard, do not disappoint Senior Brother Liu's good intentions. ”
After Elder Cheng said this, he took a special look at Baicheng's location, as if to hint at him.
Liu Qingshan smiled slightly, and said: "Senior Brother Cheng's words are serious, a few days ago, our eighteen sects of the Chen State were in the barrage alliance, and I saw that the Donglin Temple came to the Elder of the Void who was in charge of the pharmacy, so I cheekily asked him for a few grains, which was nothing. ”
Liu Qingshan continued: "We have the Purifying Pill to make a color head this year, so we can't compete in the door like in previous years, otherwise our few disciples with shallow cultivation will not have the slightest chance." I discussed with a few elders, and arranged the next task for each of them, and you each let go to do it, and for half a year, go to complete it, and then we will take the completion as the result of the big comparison, and each of the top three will have one pill for each of them, and then let Elder Jiang assign the task. ”
On the side, Jiang Fanghe picked up a stack of booklets and said: "In recent years, the situation has not been quiet, and our Cangzhou is not stable. ”
After that, Jiang Fanghe called them one by one and assigned tasks.
The first one was called to Baicheng, Jiang Fanghe took out a booklet, and said: "Three hundred miles southwest of Jianghua Mansion, there is a Qingyang Mansion, two years ago, several groups of demons collected Luo sect members, making waves, the local guards repeatedly expelled them, but they did not see results, but were injured by the evil law, the guard surnamed Zhou, who was originally also a person from our Flying Star Gate, saw that he couldn't clean it up, so he sent someone to the door for help, you go and see what the gang of Taoists is from." ”
Bai Cheng took the booklet, stood aside, and flipped through it alone.
After a while, Elder Jiang assigned tasks in the hall, and Bai Cheng watched from the sidelines, only to see that most of the other six people were tasked with expelling bandits, and only Jiang Yifan had a similar task to himself.
After a short time, Jiang Fanghe finished assigning and asked the disciples to disperse one by one.
Bai Cheng was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Liu Qingshan say, "Bai Cheng, you wait a minute." ”
As he spoke, Liu Qingshan took out a goose-yellow bag from behind him, handed it to Bai Cheng, and said, "This is what your Senior Sister Liu brought back from Cuihuanmen, saying that you usually like to read some anecdotes, which she specially collected and brought to you." ”
Bai Cheng took the burden and said, "It's bothering Senior Sister Liu." ”
This Senior Sister Liu is the eldest daughter of the head of the family, Liu Zhuyan, who is one year older than Bai Cheng, and also grew up with Bai Cheng since she was a child, and later grew older, and was sent by Liu Qingshan to the Cuihuanmen of the Song Kingdom in the west to practice.
Leaving the main hall, Bai Cheng had a drink with a few familiar juniors and disciples in the door, before returning to the room, pushing open the door, the room layout was the same as a few years ago, not only the items were not bad, but the cleaning was also spotless, but the things were not human, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.
After sitting down, Bai Cheng opened the baggage, only to see that the baggage was wrapped in several travel notes such as "Nanhua Encounters with Immortals" and "Strange Stories of Mountains and Seas", and was about to flip through it, when he suddenly saw that under a few books, there was a small flat wooden box, and he opened it to see that there was a letter, an album and an oiled paper bag, and the four words "Baicheng personally opened" were written on the cover of the letter, but it was not written by Liu Zhuyan, but Liu Qingshan's handwriting.
Bai Cheng's heart moved, he opened the envelope and read it carefully, reading and reading, his face changed slightly, he put down the letter paper, opened the oil paper package, and saw the three crimson pills in the paper bag, like flames, and muttered to himself: "Washing the marrow pill? Liu Qingshan is going to do this?"
