Chapter 58: Be Careful
Those who are good at attacking move above the nine heavens, and those who are good at defending are hiding under the nine earths.
Although Bai Cheng is not an earthworm and can hide underground, he has always been cautious, and when he first stepped into the Xuangui Hall, he secretly used the nameless mental method, condensed his body of qi and blood into the internal organs, covering people's ears and eyes, and later developed a habit of running the mental method before each time he came, hiding his qi and blood. Therefore, although Zhang Daoren was not a mediocre person, he only saw that Bai Cheng had other plans, and did not realize that he had a brilliant martial arts.
Zhang Daoren looked at the rags on the ground, frowned slightly, and said slowly: "Little brother's martial arts are so skillful, but it is not difficult to do this, then we will act according to the plan, but it is not yet an hour at this time, you first rest in the quiet room, and when the hour comes, I will send someone to call you." ”
Bai Cheng nodded and said, "But according to the orders of Hall Master Zhang." ”
Zhang Daoren clapped his hands lightly, summoned a little Taoist boy from outside, and asked him to take Bai Cheng to the quiet room to rest.
The two left the main hall, Zhang Daoren looked at the backs of the two behind him, there was a little hesitation in his eyes, and a little determination, then his eyes became cold, and he opened his mouth to call several close disciples outside the hall in, closed the door of the hall, and said softly: "Our plan, I'm afraid it will change." ”
Xiaodaotong left the main hall with Baicheng, along the path in the hall, three times around and two times, came to a secluded courtyard, the courtyard is not big, two or three houses, there are no flowers and plants, only seven or eight green bamboos in the courtyard, quite a bit elegant.
Xiao Daotong found a clean room, invited Bai Cheng in, and served tea and snacks before leaving.
Bai Cheng sat in the house, saw that all the furnishings in the house were bamboo, and there was a couplet of the master's handwriting on the bookcase by the window, "Zhicun Ren Shu Wen Changgu, there are poems and books in the belly and ink from the fragrance", the penmanship is strong and powerful, the force penetrates the back of the paper, but the paper is not an old thing, only two or three years of appearance, I secretly thought in my heart, the owner here should be a scribe who reads poetry and books, but for some reason changed this place to Taoism, I am afraid that there are some reasons.
Sitting idle and bored, Bai Cheng planned to breathe for a while, and suddenly thought that he cooperated with Zhang Daoren today, and the picture was his Heaven and Earth Forbidden Talisman, in order to be able to seal Lu Jianshan's Dao Method, but now that he has practiced the Flying Dragon Cloud Exploration Hand, if he can directly steal the Nine Spirit Flying Flame Talisman back, wouldn't it save a lot of things.
Thinking of this, Bai Cheng's heart moved, and he was going to go out to Lu Jianshan to try it, and suddenly thought that the Daomen spell had another mystery, if he went directly to Lu Jianshan, if it didn't work, it would be not beautiful, so it would be better to try it here.
The decision has been made, Bai Cheng took out a rune paper from his arms, he asked for two rune papers from Lu Jianshan a few days ago, and used one in the land temple of Gaojiazhai, and now he still has one on his body.
Bai Cheng got up and put the rune paper on the bookcase at the window, and then withdrew seven or eight steps away, condensed the power of his mind, and ran the "Flying Dragon Cloud Exploration Hand" with a move, but unexpectedly, after the shot, there was nothing in his hand, and the rune paper did not move at all.
Bai Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, his heart said that the rune paper magic weapon was like a living thing, and it couldn't be stolen with this martial art? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a few steps closer and perform the trick again, but the result was still the same, the rune paper was like sticking to the bookcase, motionless.
Bai Cheng didn't give up, he came to the bookcase in a few steps, adjusted his breathing, held his breath and concentrated, gathered the power of the central god, and ran the flying dragon to explore the clouds again, grabbed it with one palm, and his fingers were no more than three inches away from the rune paper.
In an instant, Bai Cheng only felt a sledgehammer hit his head, his head ached, his eyes were dark, and he almost sat on the ground.
Bai Cheng propped up the table in place, stood for a long time before coming back to his senses, struggling strongly, staggering, a few steps to the seat, forcibly running the "Breaking Jade Return to the Yuan Jue", until half an hour later, he felt a little clearer, opened his eyes, looked down, and saw that the rune paper was being grasped in his hand.
Seeing this result, Bai Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he already understood in his heart that it was not that this martial art was not successful, but that his mental cultivation was not enough
In fact, whether the Flying Dragon Exploration Cloud Hand can succeed in taking objects through the air does not depend on the weight of the item, but the heaven and earth vitality contained in the item, but for ordinary items, the heavier the weight, the greater the mass, and the more heaven and earth vitality it contains, but for the talisman magic weapon, the heaven and earth vitality contained in it has little to do with the weight, only with the vitality condensed during refining.
Bai Cheng was sitting quietly in the house, and suddenly heard a bell in the distance, and then there was the sound of footsteps outside the house, and then a blue-clothed Taoist priest hurriedly pushed the door in.
Bai Cheng looked up and saw that it was Qing Xuan, Zhang Daoren's personal disciple, so he got up and bowed his hand and said, "Senior Brother Qingxuan, the junior brother is polite." ”
Qing Xuan's face was slightly solemn, and he also arched his hand, and said: "Senior brother has been waiting for a long time, the master has held a birthday ceremony, and the whole hall has been summoned to the main hall, except for Lu Jianshan himself, who does not deal with the master and does not want to go to the main hall, the rest of the disciples have been ordered to go to the main hall to listen to the scriptures, and I am here to inform the junior brother." ”
When Bai Cheng heard this, he said, "In that case, please give me the Heaven and Earth Forbidden Talisman, and I will go." ”
Qing Xuan's expression was slightly embarrassed, and he said, "This talisman is not with me. ”
Bai Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said: "Senior brother is joking, the success or failure of this matter is all related to this talisman, if not, I'm afraid I won't be able to go down." ”
Qing Xuan hurriedly said: "Senior brother, please don't panic, although this talisman is not in my place, but it is in another disciple of the master's cronies, but it is inconvenient for him to show up for the time being, as long as the junior brother is willing to go, he will take the opportunity to give this talisman to the junior brother." ”
Bai Cheng asked, "But I don't know which senior brother it is?"
Qing Xuan said: "To tell you the truth, I don't know, but the master has explained that as long as someone says the words 'be careful', the junior brother will know that it is his own person." ”
Bai Cheng's heart moved, and he said, "Since this is the case, the junior brother will go." ”
Leaving the small courtyard, Bai Cheng walked to the backyard, and after a while, he came to the door of Lu Jianshan's quiet room, only to see that there was silence in the house, and there was no sound for half a minute.
Bai Cheng stood in front of the door for a while, exhaled lightly, calmed down, and knocked lightly on the door, only to hear a soft hum in the house, knowing that Lu Jianshan was in the house, so he pushed the door and entered the house.
After entering the house, Bai Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, unexpectedly, Lu Jianshan was not the only one in the quiet room, but three people, among them, Lu Jianshan sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, with a sneer on his face, and the two personal disciples Qingyue and Qinghua stood aside.
Bai Cheng secretly said in his heart, could it be that the matter has been leaked, and Lu Jianshan has prepared an ambush? Take a step back, even if he doesn't know at all, these two people will also have some martial arts, if they block them for a while, let Lu Jianshan free his hand, I am afraid that today's things will be difficult to be good, but he has always been bold and careful, and he did not panic when the matter came, and he gently arched his hand and said: "Master has always been fine, and the disciple has asked Master for peace." ”
Lu Jianshan saw him come in, and said with a slight sneer: "Today's birthday ceremony in the front hall, you didn't go to participate, but you came to my place to prepare for something?"
Bai Cheng heard him ask, knowing that it was not a leak, so he put down his heart and said with a smile: "Master is the Taoist master of Qingyang Mansion, and if this birthday hall is not presided over by the master today, it is not worth going."
Lu Jianshan's face was slightly pale, and he said: "You are a person who understands, Zhang Qianling doesn't know what kind of wind he has smoked these days, and he actually covets the position of the master of the Xuangui Hall, and wants to consolidate his position in the name of the birthday ceremony, hehe, he also has this delusion, it is really ridiculous." ”
When Bai Cheng heard this, he said: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, but it is just human nature, why should Master be angry." ”
Lu Jianshan smiled and said: "What you said is good, none of my disciples can catch up with such a sharp mouth, don't talk about this, I just have something to look for you, since you are here today, let's prepare." ”
Bai Cheng hurriedly said, "Please ask Master to command." ”
Lu Jianshan said: "A few days ago, I asked Qingyue to write a letter, planning to send someone to the Dao after I take over as the Dao Master, and ask Xiao Wan back, but up and down the hall, except for you, everyone else is not familiar with Xiao Wan, send someone else, I am afraid that she will be suspicious and dare not come back, so I want to trouble you to go." ”
Bai Cheng pretended to be happy and said, "I will do my best to fulfill Master's entrustment." ”
Lu Jianshan nodded, and then said: "After this matter is done, I will officially accept you as a disciple, but this letter must be read to Xiao Wan, you know her temperament, let's see if the words in the letter are in line with her heart." ”
After Lu Jianshan finished speaking, Qingyue, who was standing on the side, took out a letter from his arms, opened it and handed it to Bai Cheng: "Please take a closer look, please point out the shortcomings one by one, don't miss it, be careful!"
