Chapter Fifty-Seven: Shi Huan's Sojourn Incense Burner Follows Everywhere
The closer the Double Ninth Festival gets, the more anxious Lu Youling becomes, and Shi Huan is no longer trapped in the pen wash, but wandering around the house, Lu Youling looked upset, and hurriedly stopped: "Master, I'm going to be the ghost Sitian of the Incense Pavilion the day after tomorrow, can't you see that I'm annoyed?"
Shi Huan jumped into Lu Youling's palm and said angrily: "Don't you see that it is also annoying for the teacher to be trapped in the body of the moon lice? ”
"Master, the apprentice has been scared for several days about the day after tomorrow, and I heard that tomorrow Rizhao and Luo Sheng will come to watch the ceremony. ”
"As a teacher, I'm not worried about you, I'm just worried about the fortune of the Three Kingdoms, according to the current situation, Yundu and Rizhao have both lost, how can He Jia, the monarch of the Luo Sheng Kingdom, not do something? ”
"So serious?" Lu Youling exclaimed in shock, "Tomorrow they will tear their faces directly? That disciple really won't go, if I don't get my little life, it will be gone." ”
"Coward!" Shi Huan said angrily: "There is a teacher by your side to assist you, what are you worried about?"
"Master, you're like this, how can you help me?"
"Hmph!" Shi Huan's snort showed disdain, and it jumped straight onto the edge of the bed, and suddenly smoke rose above its head, its eyes glowed, and in an instant, two golden rays of light were emitted, and one of the candles in the room was extinguished.
"What's the matter? Wei Shi just used the power of metallographic to cut off the candlestick, but unfortunately these hands did not obey the call, and could only rely on his eyes to gather the true yuan and shoot out. ”
"Wow!" Lu Youling exclaimed, he ran to the candlestick to pick up the cut candle, and when he saw that the cut was neat and there was no trace of mud and water, he immediately praised: "Master, I didn't expect your skills to recover so quickly!"
"It's too early to recover, as a teacher is now just a method of mastering luck, and he can do it, but he can't do it, at best, it's a latent realm. ”
"The Hidden Yuan Realm is so powerful, Master, teach me quickly!"
"Teach you to, but you haven't opened the mind of the submersible yuan, you won't be able to comprehend much for a while, for the teacher to understand you, don't you just want to have a skill tomorrow? But do you know that the masters in the hall tomorrow are overwhelmed, thinking that the teacher's current skills are only afraid that he will not be able to fight against a few people, let alone you, a beginner. ”
"Then what should I do, but if you ask me to be the Sitian, Master will have to take responsibility for my life. ”
"Look at your little bit of breath, these days for the teacher to stand on the windowsill every night to replenish the moonlight aura, thanks to the characteristics of the moon lice, for the teacher to rely on the moonlight aura to quickly recover to the realm of the void valley, according to this speed, in less than half a year, the teacher will be able to recover to the 'no vain' realm, plus the moon lice beast's skin is as solid as a rock, itself is not afraid of the attack of the five elements, there is a teacher to protect you, what do you have to worry about?"
"Having said that, it's just that Master's identity can't be revealed, I'm in Yundu China, and I'm afraid that outsiders will be suspicious of me every day with a moon lice, right?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I remember Dong Taiping gave you a Qiankun bag, right? You take it out. ”
Lu Youling took out the Qiankun bag and put it on the table, Shi Huan jumped along the chair to the side, Lu Youling took a closer look by the lamplight, and found that Shi Huan's body was originally just an ordinary-sized toad, but now the size seems to have increased more than two or three times, just like the size of ordinary dogs.
"Do you see the 'Beidou Diagram' printed on the Qiankun bag? You ripped it off and glued it to the back of the teacher. Lu Youling didn't know why, so he had to do what he said, and when the Beidou diagram was glued to Shi Huan's back, Shi Huan said: "You might as well recite the mantra of the Qiankun bag." ”
Lu Youling thought about it for a while, and then said: "Into the moon cave sky, the universe returns." It's strange to say, at the moment when Lu Youling finished reciting the mantra, Shi Huan's body instantly shrank to the size of a Qiankun bag, like a toad doll.
"Now you know the wonderful use of the Qiankun bag, right? It's not for the teacher to say you, Dong Taiping wanted to give you a meridian sundial that day, but you refused to accept it, do you know that the treasure is far better than the Qiankun bag. ”
"My parents once taught me not to be greedy, and I am very grateful to Grandpa Dong for giving him the Qiankun bag. ”
"Don't say it, you kid, you see more clearly than the world on some major issues of right and wrong, but now this world can't tolerate an alternative like you. ”
Shi Huan turned his back, climbed to the front of an incense burner standing on the table and said: "From now on, the teacher will shrink his body and hide in this incense burner, so that you can carry it with you, if you encounter something urgent and can't make up your mind or encounter a critical situation, I will help you, in order to prevent others from disturbing, the teacher will stay in this incense burner for half a year, until you can cultivate to the realm of 'no delusion', you must not let people hide in this until the teacher is in this, if someone asks about this incense burner, you will say that it is your talisman." In addition, every night when the moon is in the sky, you must remember to place the incense burner on the windowsill to absorb the spiritual power of the moonlight. ”
"Ah, is Master going to stay in this little incense burner for a year?
"As a teacher, he has reached the realm of 'Tianshou', and he no longer needs to rely on grains to survive, as long as everything between heaven and earth can breed all things, he can absorb essence and replenish it for his own use. ”
I see, and the disciple was relieved. ”
While the two were talking, suddenly Fu Yuqiong's voice came from outside the door.
"Welcome to the deacon!"
It turned out that Bai Zixiang came over, Lu Youling hurriedly put Shi Huan into the incense burner, and then sat pretending to be nothing.
The door was knocked three times, Fu Yuqiong pushed the door in, Bai Zixiang followed, his dress today is more delicate than usual, the back bun is tied high, the green silk satin is spotless, he is used to wearing a white robe, but now he wears an indigo blue deacon robe, and the wide sleeve robe is printed with a delicate white auspicious cloud pattern, which echoes the indigo fabric.
Bai Zixiang has been gloomy since he entered the door, with his current status, now he has to discuss the succession with the stinky kid, and then accept the support of the people of Yundu together, as if he feels that this ceremony has also been lowered.
"You're Amu?"
Bai Zixiang glanced at Lu Youling, and saw that he was looking straight ahead, and he hadn't looked at himself, so he asked curiously, who knew that Lu Youling was still biting her lip and didn't speak, Bai Zixiang naturally didn't know what to do.
"The deacon asked you something, but Mu Gongzi kept silent, it was really shameless. ”
Fu Yuqiong reprimanded Lu Youling on the side, and in his eyes, he naturally disagreed with this yellow-haired boy as his boss. Bai Zixiang was also happy in his heart, but he still warned Fu Yuqiong: "Mu Gongzi is an outer disciple of the extreme deacon, even the monarch recognizes him as a junior brother, and he is also your elder, how dare you be disrespectful to him? Don't apologize to Mu Gongzi immediately!"
Fu Yuqiong said reluctantly: "Forgive me for being reckless!" and left Bai Zixiang and Lu Youling to talk in the house.
Bai Zixiang smiled and said, "When we were at the Meridian Altar, we met, I don't know where Mr. Dong went?"
Lu Youling shook his head and said that he didn't know, he secretly glanced at Bai Zixiang, and found that his face was erratic, and his eyes were like a deep spring, which made people incomprehensible, and Lu Youling even saw a rebellious from inside, which made him daunted.
"Why don't you talk back? Are you afraid of me?"
Lu Youling still remained silent, it was not that he didn't want to speak, but from Bai Zixiang's demeanor, he could see that Bai Zixiang didn't actually want to hear him speak.
"You don't have to be afraid of me, I am also a person with clear rewards and punishments, you still don't understand the rules of the Kali Temple, and the outside world is actually two different things, what can make people stand here is to make people afraid, if you are not strong, you can't make people afraid, then someone will squeeze you away at any time. But you don't have to worry, Xiao Luo can hold you in this position, but I can let you sit in this position all the time. ”
Lu Youling nervously watched Bai Zixiang walk behind him from the front of him, he felt the coolness behind him, Bai Zixiang suddenly lowered his head and said in his ear: "If there is no seat, you will not be able to sit in this position in any case, the reason is very simple, it is no longer the dynasty of the past, the so-called son of heaven and a courtier, I believe you will understand this." ”
Lu Youling couldn't understand Bai Zixiang's words, but he had already realized that this was a warning before he took office as the Incense Burning Pavilion Si Tian, although this warning was not painful or itchy, but it was full of weight, Lu Youling stretched out his hand and held the incense burner tightly, trying to balance his fear.
"Huh...... This incense burner...... It's very chic," Bai Zixiang stretched out his slender jade hand to take a look, Lu Youling hurriedly hugged the incense burner on his chest, Bai Zixiang retracted his hollow hand, and felt unhappy in his heart. This is the first time that Lu Youling and Bai Zixiang have a real intersection, but I didn't expect to disobey Bai Zixiang for the first time, Bai Zixiang secretly thought in his heart: "Sure enough, it's a toast and don't eat and drink, it's a long time coming, see how I clean you up!"
Bai Zi admired Gui as a deacon, naturally he couldn't get angry easily, not to mention that he was too stingy for an incense burner, he changed his words, and said: "Mu Gongzi is about to become the Si Tian of Jiali Temple, I don't know what level of cultivation your cultivation has reached?"
Lu Youling secretly scolded in her heart: "Bai Zixiang will really ask knowingly, if I knew how to cultivate fate, then I would have taken revenge on you a long time ago, forget it, Lao Tzu will continue to ignore you, pretending to be stupid and making your problem go away." So Lu Youling still shook her head, but the incense burner shook slightly, Lu Youling was startled, and hurriedly hid it on her chest with her hands.
The incense burner continued to shake, and Lu Youling knew that the master must have something to say, so he listened to it with his ears, and a voice sounded next to his ear, "You sit down, I will pass on the sound to you now, and others will not be able to hear it." ”
"You ask Bai Zixiang He Pei to ask him to give you a copy of the key to the collection pavilion. ”
Lu Youling asked according to the extreme saying, "Can Deacon Bai give me a copy of the key to the Collection Pavilion?"
Bai Zixiang was stunned, he thought to himself, isn't this kid not yet in the cultivation relationship? How could he know about the existence of the Archive Pavilion? According to the regulations of the Jiali Temple, the deacon and the five great Si Tian each keep a key to the Archive Pavilion, if any of the disciples need to borrow the classics inside, they must tell the head of the sect to open the door of the Archive Pavilion before entering, and the books can only be read inside, and they are not allowed to take them out.
"What do you want the key to the Pavilion for? What is stored here is all Yundu's secret cultivation technique, if you lose it, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it. ”
"Why should Deacon Bai have such doubts, since I have succeeded as the Si Tian of the Incense Burning Pavilion, it is naturally my duty to protect the Collection Pavilion, and if there is any loss, I am willing to be punished. ”
Lu Youling's humility and arrogance surprised Bai Ziying, and he began to suspect that someone was teaching Lu Youling to say these words, who could this person be?
The first person Bai Zixiang thought of was Xiao Luo, Xiao Luo had already entered the Guiyuan Palace, and he must have an explanation with this yellow-haired boy when he left. Bai Zixiang stared at Lu Youling in a daze, seeing that his eyes were resolute, and he didn't seem to be afraid of himself, he hesitated for a while, then took out a key from his sleeve robe and handed it to Lu Youling.
"There is another day is the succession ceremony, although you are a disciple of the extreme deacon who does not enter the room, but it is also my junior brother, at the beginning of our five Si Tian of the Jiali Temple, each other's righteousness, in the future I will call you the sixth brother, since I am in charge of the Jiali Temple, there is a sentence or have to remind you, the Jiali Temple has always been independent of the Guiyuan Temple, there has never been any intersection, if you want to sit firmly in your seat, or do not get too close to the people of the Guiyuan Temple. That's all for today, and I'll talk to you about it in the future. ”
Lu Youling looked at Bai Zixiang and walked out with a warm face, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly put the incense burner on the table.
"Master, why can't I understand what Bai Zixiang said?"
"He deliberately wanted to win you over, you just behaved very well, quietly, give him an ambiguous answer, he will be anxious when he goes back. ”
"Master Xie appreciates it, Master asked me to ask him to get the key to the Archive, is it not for the books inside?"
"That's right, the collection pavilion was completed with the Jiali Temple, there are more than 10,000 books inside, in addition to the famous books and classics, there are also books that record the secret art of cultivating the fate, let you go to get the key is naturally for your sake, you have been my nominal disciple for so long, you should always teach you something real, if I am not there in the future, you can also protect yourself. ”
"It's really good that Master is willing to teach me immortal arts, but I remember Master, you once said that I didn't open the latent mind, and learning can only get twice the result with half the effort, so what's the use of me learning?"
"There is a way to help you open your mind for the teacher to let you learn, but I am now in the body of a moon lice, and my cultivation has not yet recovered to the realm of "no delusion", if you rashly open the Xuantian Gate with your current cultivation, you will definitely not be able to resist the attack of the divine punishment of the heavenly thunder, so during the period of time when the teacher restores the 'no delusion' cultivation, you can first keep in mind the cultivation method of the hidden yuan to the delusion, and you can integrate and be familiar with it when you open your mind in the future. ”
"Ask weakly, how thick are these three books?"
"Let me tell you this, just after reading these three books, it took three months to become a teacher, if you memorize them all, you still have to work hard!"
Lu Youling thought about it, anyway, she had decided to stay here for a year, and she always had to find something to pass the time, and these three books were just enough to kill the boring time, so she agreed to it.
Fu Yuqiong, as an old and senior immortal master, is naturally unwilling to stoop under a yellow-haired boy, and he has borrowed wine every night for the past few days to kill his sorrows, and when he sees Bai Zixiang, he is full of alcohol.
"Brother Fu must be sad about that kid, right? My eldest brother is really, the vacancy in the Incense Pavilion should have been taken over by you, but in the end, Amu is the nominal disciple of the deacon, and it is reasonable for him to take over Si Tian. ”
Fu Yuqiong said with an angry face: "The Si Tian of Jiali Temple has always been selected and appointed by the deacon, Xiao Sitian succeeded to the position of monarch, and the matter of appointment in the temple should be taken care of by the deacon, could it be that Jiali Temple has also become an institution of the imperial court?"
As soon as Bai Zixiang heard this, he knew that Fu Yuqiong was resentful, and he smiled and said: "My eldest brother has always been unable to accept people's words, and during the absence of the deacon of the Extreme Dao, he set up a hall of words, and all matters in the temple were handed over to the Golden Sacred Palace for approval. In fact, I am also unhappy for the Fu brothers, the selection of talents in the Jiali Temple has always been in the sense of virtue and cultivation, and it is not a place to open the door of convenience and hide dirt, this little boy named Amu, has no merit in the Jiali Temple, and has no skills, if you want to choose this seat, it must be the Fu brothers. ”
Fu Yuqiong looked at Bai Zixiang with a happy face, as if she had seen her bosom friend, "Really, Deacon Bai also thinks that I am the most suitable candidate?"
"Of course, after Zuo Tian'an's death, according to the merits of the Fu brothers, they have already been recognized by the disciples in the temple, according to the cultivation, the Fu brothers seem to have the qualifications to break through the 'no delusion', there is no one else in the Incense Pavilion, how do you look at you, you are the best candidate for the Incense Pavilion Sitian, I should have let Yu Tinghai inherit the position of Luochuan Yuan Sitian after I became a deacon in vain, but unfortunately Yu Tinghai's brother is also a thing, I really don't know what to do?"
Bai Zixiang glanced at Fu Yuqiong intentionally or unintentionally, Fu Yuqiong suddenly realized, and hurriedly bowed down to Bai Zixiang, and said with a swear: "If Deacon Bai has any dispatch, he will definitely be willing to serve the dogs and horses!"
Bai Zixiang stretched out one arm to hold Fu Yuqiong, who was saluting, "I think that Brother Fu may have misunderstood!"
Fang Chixiao misunderstood? Fu Yuqiong secretly thought in her heart, could it be that Deacon Bai didn't want to promote herself, she was all self-inflicted just now, and when she thought about it, her face suddenly turned blue and red.
"The meaning of this seat is to let you go to succeed Si Tian of the Golden Sacred Palace. ”
"What! Deacon Bai don't take it for fun, this Golden Sacred Palace is Xiao Sitian's territory, needles can't be pricked, water can't be splashed, how can I be his family's Sitian?"
"This seat said that you will do it naturally, Xiao Luo has succeeded the monarch, and the seat of Si Tian will definitely be vacant, if you go to fight, this seat should support you behind it. ”
"This... It's not proper, Xiao Sitian succeeded to the throne of the monarch, and he should be filled by the chief immortal master, and besides, the fire phase technique I learned does not match the golden phase, so it is in vain for the deacon to do his good intentions. ”
"Fang Chixiao and my eldest brother have always had a deep friendship, but he has never been speculative with this seat, and now the cloud capital is recuperating, waiting for the new, the DPRK is the time to employ people, Fang Chixiao is well versed in the people's livelihood strategy, and is in line with the conditions for the selection of people in the DPRK, so why not send him to the Guiyuan Palace to share the worries of the monarch, wouldn't it be better?"
Fu Yuqiong nodded again and again and praised: "Deacon Bai is really strategic, so that the Golden Saint Palace will have no successor, just the fire phase below..."
"Hey, why bother with this!" Bai Zixiang took out a parchment bag from his sleeve robe and handed it to Fu Yuqiong's hand, "This is Xiao Luo's famous stunt 'Breaking Saber Method', you haven't reached the realm of 'no delusion' yet, and you can't exert your sword qi as sharp as Xiao Luo, but if you use the power of fire to urge the knife style, you will definitely be able to fuse it with a different power." I hope you will study this sword technique tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will be in the hall, and you will act like this..."
