Chapter 82: Ancient Exercises (4,000 Words)
Although Zhang Boya's news was shocking, Bai Cheng didn't dare to believe it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
On that day, before the Fengnuo Daoist left, he had already made it clear to him that the Jiuyao Islands were full of murderous opportunities, and as long as he was careless, he would be buried here.
Bai Cheng originally thought that the threat mentioned by Daoist Fengnuo was only from the Yuanlong Palace and Wuying Palace, but the several shots of Daoist Packa's disciple Leibu made him know that the source of the crisis not only came from the outside world, but also from the Xie Dao people.
The owner of the relics in Zhang Boya's mouth was Chu Xilu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, which made Bai Cheng even more vigilant.
He killed the two masters of the Royal Forest Army in the White Tiger Camp that day, and Chu Xilu had already formed a blood feud, although he was confident that Chu Xilu would not recognize his skills, but life and death were naturally a little more careful, otherwise he would miss for a while and lose his life, but he would regret it.
However, Bai Cheng now has reached the peak of Qi cultivation in his physical body, and he only needs to make up for the shortcomings of the power of the Upper Mind and God, so he has the opportunity to climb to the realm of refining the gods, and attaches great importance to the news of the relics, and refuses to give up even if there is the slightest opportunity.
Therefore, although he felt that this news was a little strange, he did not drive Zhang Boya away directly, but tested the truth in Zhang Boya's words with words.
After listening to Bai Cheng's words, Zhang Boya glanced around and said in a low voice: "What Zhou Shaoxia said is very false, as long as we can take the relics from the hands of Commander Chu, no one will investigate it afterwards." ”
Bai Cheng sneered and said, "Why did Brother Zhang say this?"
Zhang Boya said: "Zhou Shaoxia, our Chen State has always been controlled by the Daomen, and His Majesty has been the protector of the Daomen in the past dynasties, so how can it have anything to do with the Buddhism? ”
Bai Cheng shook his head and said, "Brother Zhang's words are too arbitrary, maybe your Majesty wants to use it, and specially asked Commander Chu to find it." ”
"Absolutely not!" Zhang Boya's face was extremely excited.
Bai Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
Zhang Boya sighed and said: "The relics are the treasures of Buddhism, and the relics above the Venerable are even more precious that can be obtained but not obtained. The three Venerable-level relics on our Taiyin Island were actually more than 100 years ago when Buddhism and Taoism were fighting, and the founding emperor personally led a large army to exterminate an extremely important inheritance of Buddhism, so he obtained these few strange treasures, and he has never obtained such an important treasure since then. ”
"Oh?"
"These three Venerable-level relics are actually not on Taiyin Island at all, but exist in the secret treasury of His Majesty today, and Zhou Shaoxia connived to exchange them, but they may not be exchanged. ”
"This matter is confidential, how did Brother Zhang know so much about it?"
"After all, the Zhang family has a Buddhist heritage, and they have always been extremely attentive to these things. ”
"I see!"
"In recent decades, there has been no major conflict between the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, even if the commander of Chu has the ability to reach the heavens, how can he snatch relics from Buddhism?"
"What Brother Zhang said also makes sense. ”
"As far as Zhang knows, before the commander of Chu became famous, he traveled to the ends of the earth and lived a lot of days in the north, maybe this relic was obtained at that time. ”
"Brother Zhang doesn't need to say it, I understand it below. ”
"Zhou Shaoxia understands, when will we trade?"
"This is not in a hurry for the time being, I only listen to Brother Zhang's words in the next, so the transaction is inevitably a little too rushed, it is better to wait for the next verification, and then it is not too late to trade. ”
Zhang Boya was stunned, pondered for a moment and said: "What Zhou Shaoxia said also makes sense, it is Zhang who is too anxious! But if Zhou Shaoxia wants to do it, he must remember to inform Zhang, after all, Zhang has a strange art and can sense the location of the relic." ”
Bai Cheng arched his hand and smiled: "Brother Zhang, rest assured, as long as the relics are in hand, Brother Zhang's wish will definitely be fulfilled." ”
Zhang Boya nodded, and said a few more words to Bai Cheng, before turning his head and walking out of the jungle and leaving Jidu Island by boat.
Bai Cheng looked at Zhang Boya's distant figure, and his heart was covered with a layer of gloom.
If Zhang Boya's news is true, I am afraid that sooner or later the Jiuyao Islands will set off a bloody storm. Chu Xilu's possession of the relics was just a trivial matter, and the appearance of the relics in the Jiuyao Islands was a real big thing.
The masters of the Jiuyao Islands are like clouds, and there is more than one God Refining Grandmaster, if it were not for His Majesty's order, Chu Xilu would not bring the relics to the island as long as he was not crazy. But if it is really the order of His Majesty Chen Yao, then where did this relic come from? Could it be the Northern Buddhism...
Thinking of this, Bai Cheng was suddenly shocked, only to feel that there were many murderous intentions behind him, and there were a lot of involvements involved, which was not something that he could deal with as an outsider, I am afraid that it would have to wait for the return of Daoist Fengnuo, or directly present this matter to Xie Daoren.
......
The wind and the sun are beautiful, and the sky is just right.
There were a few white clouds hanging in the sky, and Bai Cheng left Jidu Island early in the morning, stepping on the nine holes and walking in an empty boat, accompanied by the leisurely floating clouds, and swept towards the direction of Sun Island.
Jidu Island is not far from Sun Island, but in the blink of an eye, Bai Cheng came to the sky above Sun Island, and he did not go to other locations on the island, and pressed the cloud head in front of the gate of the Shou Gong Palace.
"Qingxu seniors, today they all rely on their seniors!" Bai Cheng said in a low voice.
"It's a little thing, it's not worth mentioning, the mountain people just take a look at the strength of this cultivation world. Qingxu Daoist said lightly.
Before Bai Cheng went out today, he specially went to visit the Qingxu Dao people in the Heart World.
Today's actions are very important, he wants to grasp all the information before he can make a decision, but Xie Daoren is a God Refining Grandmaster, he can't see through Xie Dao's people's thoughts, so he asked Qingxu Daoist to come forward and borrow his five senses to take a look at the details of Xie Daoren.
The Qingxu Daoist agreed, he had already felt that there was something wrong with this cultivation world, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to take a look at the details of this cultivation world.
Gently pushing open the door of the palace, Bai Cheng stepped into the main hall of the Shou Humble Palace.
A decaying, cold aura came to the face, like an ancient tomb that no one had entered for many years, and there was no trace of the sunshine outside the island of the sun.
Bai Cheng frowned slightly, and walked straight upstairs along the path that Dao Chang Feng Nuo had walked last time, there was no one on the way, just like the last time he came here, I really don't know how Xie Dao people live here on weekdays.
A moment later, Bai Cheng stepped up the stairs to the portal of the highest level of the ashram, where he had visited the last time.
"Tu, tu, tu" finger bones knocked lightly on the wooden door, making a crisp sound.
"Who is it?" said an old voice through the door.
"Disciple Bai Cheng has come to pay a visit. ”
"Come in. ”
Bai Cheng gently pushed open the door and stepped into the quiet room, Xie Daoren sat alone in the quiet room, the morning sun shone on the colorful glass on the wall, reflecting countless colorful lights, under the light background, Xie Daoren's figure was blurred, and there was an extremely strange sense of nothingness, as if the Xie Daoren in front of him was just an illusion.
Bai Cheng stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said, "Disciple Bai Cheng see Ancestor Xie. ”
The relationship between him and Daoist Fengnuo was not hidden from Daoist Xie, Daoist Paka and Daoist Lingtu both thought that he was a disciple of Daoist Fengnuo, but Daoist Xie knew that he was not worshipping under Daoist Fengnuo.
"Sit down, whatever, don't be formal. Xie Daoren said.
Bai Cheng nodded, turned around and found a futon, sat on the side of Xie Dao at will, and said, "Ancestor Xie, since the disciple came to the Jiuyao Islands, he has been studying the way of runes, and he was unable to come to visit, so I ask the ancestor to forgive me." ”
"The way of runes is the right thing, you should concentrate on cultivation, if the poor path was not distracted back then, it would not have been unsuccessful. ”
Bai Cheng said: "The disciple has a matter that he can't make up his mind today, and he needs to report it to Patriarch Xie. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
Bai Cheng nodded, and then recounted Zhang Boya's visit last night, and also told his own guess.
After listening to this, Xie Daoren pondered for a moment and said, "In your opinion, how credible is this person's words?"
Bai Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said: "From the disciple's point of view, this person's words don't seem to be fake, but what he said is too bizarre, and now His Majesty is secretly communicating with the Buddha Sect, although it is just a disciple's speculation, it is also unbelievable." ”
Xie Daoren sighed softly and said: "There is nothing unbelievable, the power of the Imperial Family of the Seven Kingdoms is huge, and they no longer care about the power of the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, even if the Daomen knows about this, they may not have the strength to make a big deal about it." ”
Bai Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I see, it's the disciple who has a lot of troubles. If this relic is owned by His Majesty today, I am afraid that I will not have a relationship with my disciples. ”
"Not necessarily. ”
"Oh?"
"Your cultivation is not slow to improve, but after a few years of hard work, you have already been promoted to the peak of qi cultivation, and you only need the improvement of the power of the mind to be able to impact the realm of refining gods, right?" Xie Daoren suddenly asked.
"The patriarch's eyes are like torches. ”
"You attach so much importance to relics, it seems that there is a miraculous skill in refining relics, I don't know if it is or not?" Xie Daoren continued to ask.
"The patriarch guessed right. Bai Cheng did not deny that he also wanted to go to the merit workshop in the name of Xie Daoren to exchange merit points, so he did not hide it.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid you'll have to work on this relic. Xie Daoren said.
"Ah, aren't there still three Venerable-level relics in the Meritorious Workshop?" Bai Cheng asked.
"Those three relics are in the emperor's inner treasury, hanging in the merit workshop, just a name, and they will not really be exchanged. ”
"Could it be that His Majesty of a dignified country will not be able to repay his debts?"
"You don't have to expect too much from Chen Yao, otherwise you will definitely be disappointed. Xie Daoren squeezed out a meaningful smile on his lips, Chen Yao is the name of His Majesty Chen Guo today, but in Xie Dao's mouth, there is no sense of respect.
When Bai Cheng heard this, he had already comprehended the meaning of Xie Daoren.
It seems that although Xie Daoren's lineage lives in seclusion in the Jiuyao Islands, they are only cooperating with His Majesty and even General Wei Da, not a trustworthy alliance.
Therefore, Xie Daoren did not have the slightest respect for His Majesty today, and even encouraged Bai Cheng to fight for the idea of that relic.
Thinking of this, Bai Cheng nodded and said, "The disciple understands, the disciple will find a way to find out the news of this relic."
Xie Daoren nodded slightly, and suddenly asked, "Since you are not far from the realm of refining gods, I don't know if you have ever thought about what exercises you want to change?"
Bai Cheng was stunned, a little unable to keep up with Xie Daoren's train of thought, and he didn't know why the topic suddenly jumped to the exercises, saying: "The disciple does not have a method of cultivation after refining the gods. ”
Xie Daoren smiled and said: "There are three exercises here in the poor road, you can choose one or two for reference, if you like it, it is okay to use it as a major exercise." ”
Bai Cheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "How dare the disciple spy on the exercises in Patriarch Xie's sect?"
Xie Daoren shook his head and said, "These three exercises are not passed down from my sect, they are all obtained by the poor Dao unintentionally, you might as well go and practice by yourself." ”
Bai Cheng's heart moved, and he said, "Please also ask Ancestor Xie to show me." ”
Xie Daoren took out three jade books from his bosom and placed them in front of Bai Cheng.
These three jade books are carved from the above good mutton fat jade, and the thin jade pieces are connected by gold wire ropes, and they are engraved with ant-sized characters.
On the cover of one of the jade books is written "The True Law of Dark Clouds Covering the Sun", on the cover of the other is "The Spirit Turtle Will Not Die for Ten Thousand Years", and on the last jade book, the five words "One Qi to the Pure Body" are written.
Xie Daoren said: "These three jade books are all handed down by the ancient true immortals, and they are all methods that point directly to the Great Dao, as long as they have a little achievement, they are better than any method in the world, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate." ”
Bai Cheng nodded, rubbing the three jade books with his hand, a little hesitant in his heart, and couldn't make up his mind for a while.
Xie Daoren explained: "According to legend, the "Dark Cloud Covering the Sun True Method" is passed down by the ancient Wuyun Immortal, who is the best at fighting with people, and the "Spirit Turtle Immortal" is passed down by the ancient Turtle Immortal, which has the effect of prolonging life and longevity of the body. ”
Bai Cheng hesitated in his heart, to say that with his character, he would naturally choose the "Dark Clouds Covering the Sun True Method", but the temptation of "Spirit Turtle Immortal Body" is not small, after all, the original purpose of the vast majority of cultivators is to prolong their lives, as for "One Qi to Detoxify the Body" is not in his scope of consideration, it is just to strengthen his body and not be afraid of knives and guns, which is not too attractive to him.
Bai Cheng's eyes were spinning on these two jade books, and he suddenly heard someone in his ear say, "It's better for you to choose "One Qi to Detoxify." ”
This is the voice of the Qingxu Daoist, since Baicheng entered the Shoushu Palace, the Qingxu Daoist has not said a word, but he didn't expect to suddenly open his mouth at this time.
Bai Cheng was slightly stunned, then picked up "One Qi to Detoxify" and said, "Disciple, let's choose this exercise." ”
The Qingxu Daoist is unfathomable, and his choice should have his reasoning.
Xie Daoren didn't say anything, nodded slightly, and said, "Since this matter is over, you can go." ”
Bai Cheng stood up and said, "That disciple will stand down for the time being. ”
Xie Daoren nodded and motioned for Bai Cheng to retreat.
Bai Cheng slowly withdrew from the door, and just as he was about to come out, he suddenly heard Xie Daoren say behind him: "There is one thing you need to remember, the branch of the Dao Gate is that no matter how deep the estrangement is, there may not be no room for relaxation, even if the friendship between Buddhism and Taoism is good, it is also the enemy of life and death after all." ”
When Bai Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, as if he understood something, turned back and glanced at Xie Daoren deeply, turned around and went downstairs.
After Bai Cheng left, Xie Daoren sighed, took out a small white jade gong from his arms, and struck it lightly a few times
The sound of the gong was crisp, and it spread far away, out of the Shou Gong Palace, out of the Sun Island, and it gradually disappeared without knowing where it went. (To be continued.) )
