Chapter 209: Elder Huang and Erlenzi
γChapter error, click here to reportγ
The ruins of Kunji Gate, which was occupied by the alliance of the ten factions of the Southern Ming Dynasty, have almost been completely explored, and there is no dispute between it and the Nanshan faction.
The two major forces reached a cooperative relationship due to the joint development of the liquor industry, and then wanted Yan Yue together and formed a new alliance, called the Nanming Alliance.
Elder Huang came to Qianyuan City to deepen the art of wine for the ancestor of Jiedan.
was squeezed out by the former senior brother of the Nanshan faction, and the wine insights and refining style were also inconsistent with everyone, and even the five bottles of the wine master of Jixianju, and he was "invited" out of Jixianju.
At this time, I was invited by another powerful restaurant "Cup Forget Worries", thinking that no matter where I was, I could improve my wine skills, so I followed the middle-aged beauty to the Cup Forget Worries.
The middle-aged beautiful woman forgot her worries for the cup, and she was also a spirit wine master, so she went to Jixian Ju to taste wine and steal the teacher's room, and when she saw this scene, she recruited Elder Huang to her own restaurant.
On the one hand, Elder Huang wanted to take advantage of this platform to improve his wine art, and on the other hand, in order to thank the other party for his kindness, he immediately began to work after coming to the cup to forget his worries.
The spirit wine master needs at least one "master", and the person who is good at it is an apprentice.
On this day, Elder Huang posted a notice at the door of the store to recruit apprentices, and the notice stated that only young people under the age of 20 would be recruited.
Spirit wine masters rarely recruit apprentices, and the teenagers in the city who got the news came to sign up one after another.
When the number of people reached a certain number, Elder Huang tore off the notice and tested the teenagers.
He is a more responsible person, although he only recruits the undertakers, but he will also carry out a strict selection, only those with outstanding understanding will recruit his subordinates, and at the same time teach the art of wine.
Looking at the more than 100 mid- and low-level young men in Qi refining in front of him, he took out a stack of spell books and said, "Among you, whoever learns this 'Hidden Spirit Technique' first can become my apprentice. β
As he spoke, he handed out the printed "Hidden Spirit" spell booklet to the teenagers.
This "Concealment Technique" is a relatively rare technique of concealing spiritual power fluctuations obtained by accident, and the teenagers here must not have seen it anywhere before.
Through the test to comprehend the hidden spirit technique, the test of comprehension is fair to all teenagers.
The spell book was distributed to the teenagers, and everyone immediately looked at it excitedly, except for a more clever teenager, who did not look through it immediately, but opened his mouth wide and hung there, with a demented look on his face, and there was a deep groan and hesitation.
Elder Huang walked up to the seemingly clever but sluggish young man with his hands, "Why didn't you watch?"
The boy came back to his senses, tried to speak but swallowed it back into his stomach, and then looked through the booklet with a wit.
Laughter came from the young man's side, "What a second flute." β
They don't have much hope of becoming an apprentice to a spirit winemaker, but as long as they can learn some of the surface of this spell, it's worth it.
And the seemingly clever boy was still there in a daze, laughing for a while, and constantly flipping through the booklet like a race.
Elder Huang took his hands in his hands and walked back and forth among the teenagers.
The seemingly clever boy from before had caught his attention slightly, and he observed the boy without a trace.
I saw that the young man seemed to be flipping through the art book, but in fact, his mind was all around him, and his eyes were glancing around, looking absent-minded.
Always look at others, do you want to cheat?
Elder Huang had this idea, walked up to the young man, and reminded, "The cheater is directly disqualified. β
The boy was shocked when he heard this, and said that I didn't cheat.
After speaking, seeing that Elder Huang's face had not changed, he added, "Master, you can't cheat when it comes to learning spells." β
Elder Huang thought the same, so he went to see the other teenagers.
Time flies quickly, and the teenagers have been learning for an hour, and the excitement from the beginning has become frowning and contemplating.
At the same time of hard study, my heart also began to become anxious, and now I only know that I have not learned a little bit of skin, and I don't know the progress of others at all, if this is understood by anyone at once, there is no time to react at all.
While everyone was anxious, a young man stood up after shouting a word of master.
All the young people were startled, and the young man who looked more clever among them had even more faces, and he also stood up quickly, and hurriedly shouted: "Master, I have learned!"
Elder Huang was a little surprised when he saw two young men getting up at the same time, "You really mastered it in one hour?"
looked at the young man who stood up first, and said excitedly, "You speak first." β
The young man was a little embarrassed and said, "Master, what I want to say is that I want to solve it a little." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.
Elder Huang's excitement immediately cooled down, and he waved his hand at the young man again and again, "Go, go, go." β
I thought that someone could really accomplish this impossible thing in an hour, but I didn't expect to be happy.
He sighed and looked at the clever young man who stood up behind him, and his heart immediately became hot.
The one in front of him only shouted "Master", while this person shouted "Master, I have learned".
Elder Huang excitedly came to the clever young man, and his voice trembled a little, "You really have mastered the Hidden Spirit Technique in one hour?"
There was no hope at all for these casually recruited teenagers, how could it be possible for a Qi refining cultivator to learn a completely unfamiliar spell in one hour.
But at the same time, there is also a hint of luck in my heart.
There was once a person who, during the Qi refining period, completely comprehended this technique after just one glance, and taught him how to perform it hand in hand.
If someone can really comprehend it in one hour, although it is still 108,000 miles worse than that person, it is also known.
His eyes eagerly looked at the clever young man in front of him, waiting for his answer.
The clever young man's gaze followed the young man for a while, then he withdrew his gaze, looked at Elder Huang, and opened his mouth.
"How is it, have you learned yet?" Elder Huang waited anxiously.
The clever young man's eyes rolled around, and he stopped talking for a while, and then his face showed a look of ridicule, scratched his head, and said in a low voice: "No." β
Everyone's hearts were raised to their throats, and when they heard this, they fell silent for a while, and then burst into laughter.
"Haha, it's really a second flute. β
Elder Huang was teased by the two teenagers twice, his mood could be described as ups and downs, and he said angrily: "You haven't learned, why do you say that you have learned!
As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves and came to the front of the boys.
"If someone rushes to answer next time, they will be disqualified directly. β
He knew why the clever boy hadn't learned to say that he had learned, this was to get ahead of others and answer.
But isn't that a joke on him?
Elder Huang glared at the young man angrily, recalling that this young man had poked his head around from the beginning, and it turned out that he had been holding this thought since then.
He said angrily to the young man: "Use your little cleverness to specialize in spells." β
The boy sighed and looked down at the technique.
Elder Huang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he saw that although he didn't show his actions this time, he still looked like he was going to answer with others.
"What's the use of just answering quickly...... Hey, it's really a second flute. β
Elder Huang waited for everyone to learn for a while, and felt that it was impossible for anyone among the teenagers to learn.
Let the young men put down the booklet in their hands and said, "Although none of you have learned this spell, if you can tell all the characteristics of this spell, there is still a chance that you can pass it." β
Ordinary people learn spells, the slow ones are two or three years, and the fast ones are a few months.
Concealing the spirit technique, Elder Huang had been studying for a long time at that time, but he had not yet mastered it, and in the end, if it wasn't for that great talent, I am afraid that he would not have comprehended the essence of this technique by now.
At the beginning, I didn't expect the teenagers to be able to learn this technique in a limited time, and the ultimate goal of this test is to be at this level, "through the study of the hidden spirit technique, tell the characteristics of this technique."
After Elder Huang finished speaking, an idea arose in the hearts of all the young people at the same time, and the one who answered first would definitely have the advantage.
The characteristics of a spell are limited, and after the first responder says all of them, and the latter says the same thing, even if he really comprehends it himself, he becomes watery.
The teenagers called me me and me one by one, and among them, the seemingly clever "Erlenzi" was the most fierce.
Elder Huang didn't like this kind of stupid guy who liked to play tricks, so he pointed to Erlenzi and said, "You're the last." β
As he spoke, he called the young men up one by one to answer.
The teenagers began to talk about the characteristics of the technique.
Some say that this is a spell to help improve cultivation.
Some say, no, it's a spell to increase consciousness.
Others say, you're all wrong, it's a stealth technique.
Elder Huang was so angry that he blew his beard, and only after a young man correctly said that this was a magic spell that concealed spiritual power fluctuations, his expression gradually eased.
But no one among the teenagers could name anything else.
When the young man said the last one, Elder Huang shook his head, "You all go back." β
One of the teenagers who had been skipped did not answer, and Erlenzi hurriedly said, "Master, I haven't said it yet." β
Elder Huang glared at him and said angrily, "Just by saying some simple features of this technique, you can't count you as passing. β
Erlenzi was a little difficult when he heard this, but there was only one chance, so he began to say: "This spell is to teach people to hide the fluctuations of spiritual power on the monk's body, and the function is to make it clear, that is, to hide the cultivation and avoid being detected by the divine sense." β
Elder Huang felt that this explanation was quite right, and glanced at Erlenzi with some surprise, and said, "Go on, how to perform this technique." β
Erlenzi said again: "Although I haven't learned this spell, some of them know that to perform this spell, you should first understand the signs of spiritual energy flow around you, and then make your own spiritual power fluctuations consistent with this." β
What Er Lengzi said was indeed right, Elder Huang was slightly surprised, but in fact, the principle of a spell similar to this spell is also similar to this technique, and it is possible that Er Lengzi has learned a similar spell, and he will be blind here to tell the characteristics of that spell.
Elder Huang walked back and forth for a moment with his hands in his hands, and then said again, "Then what are the disadvantages of this technique?"
If he can name the shortcomings of this technique, then his previous opinion should be true.
Erlenzi's eyes rolled around for a moment, and finally he said helplessly: "I don't understand it either, I think it should be that people can't move around in place." β
Er Lengzi said the correct answer, Elder Huang was really a little surprised at this time, his eyes looked at Er Lengzi again for a moment, and he said with a little excitement: "Then why can't people move around in place?"
"I don't know about this, master, have I passed?" Er Lengzi didn't answer at this time, but asked Elder Huang instead.
Elder Huang swept his eyes at everyone, but he didn't expect that the final qualifier would be this clever Erlenzi.
There are no other better ones, so they can only choose this Erlenzi as a starting point.
"I hope this Erlenzi won't be smart for a while, and dull for a while......"
After sending all the other teenagers away, Elder Huang looked at Erlenzi in front of him and asked, "You Erlenzi, do you know why you want to test your Soul Concealment Technique?"
Erlenzi shook his head.
Elder Huang said: "That's because I want to see how big the gap between you and that great talent is, although you finally stayed from more than a hundred people, but compared to that person, you are still 108,000 miles behind." β
When he was in Yunyang Sect, Elder Huang often talked about the missed talent in front of Xiao Tianchai.
Every time he spoke, Xiao Tianchai would ask who that person was.
Elder Huang smiled mysteriously and said nothing, and the Erlenzi in front of him didn't even chase down and ask.
Not only did he not have the competitive heart to chase after him, but the look on his face was strange and abnormal.
Elder Huang was a little puzzled, which smart person could endure another smart person.
Erlenzi didn't have a little competitiveness against another smart person, that is, ......
Elder Huang's heart moved, thinking back to Erlengzi's strange behavior during the test, and thinking of a possibility that Erlenzi could finally pass.
"Erlengzi, you tell me, where did you learn the Hidden Spirit Technique?"
Erlenzi looks quite clever, but in fact he is relatively sluggish, and he likes to play some cleverness.
If he'd learned Occultism somewhere before, then the odd behavior during the test could also be explained.
As soon as he got the book of Hidden Spirits, he was surprised in his heart, such a coincidence, I actually learned this spell.
Then, with his clever character, he knew that if he spoke too quickly, he would be suspected, so he kept delaying time, but at the same time, he was also worried that he would be answered by others.
So, from the very beginning, I glanced around there and paid attention to the progress of others' specializations.
Under the premise of having this psychological existence, he will shout "Master, I have learned" later, and when he really took the test, he found that the person before was just going to solve it, so he said that he had not learned.
And among all the teenagers, he is the only one who can say that he has the characteristics of hidden spirit magic, isn't it because he has learned this technique?
When Elder Huang thought of this, his face was extremely ugly, and his eyes were fixed on Erlenzi's face, waiting for Erlengzi to answer.
Erlenzi shouted again and again, the master was wronged, and the disciple had not learned the hidden spirit technique.
Elder Huang's speculation was just speculation after all, and it was really hard to say whether Er Lengzi had learned the Hidden Spirit Technique.
Elder Huang can directly perform polygraph and soul searching techniques to verify the authenticity, but firstly, this kind of trivial matter cannot be used to search people's souls, and secondly, he said to smart people like Elder Huang that there is naturally a way to make Erlengzi show his original form.
"So, you relied on your ingenuity to master the characteristics of Hidden Soul Art in a short period of time?"
Before Erlenzi could answer, Elder Huang said again: "Since this is the case, then it will be more difficult for me to test you again, if you can still master some fur in a short period of time, then it is really considered that you have not learned the Hidden Spirit Technique in advance." β
Speaking, he began to talk with Erlenzi, a spell that can not only hide his own spiritual power fluctuations, but also conceal the breath of spiritual power, this spell is called "Smoke Dissipation", and Erlenzi must master it in a short time, otherwise he will be expelled.
Erlenzi listened to the words, and Leng was on the spot.
"Elder Huang is trying to force me out of my original form......"
Erlenzi is Yan Yue.
Seeing Elder Huang being recruited away by the cup in Jixian Residence, he thought to himself, I want to learn the art of refining wine from a spirit winemaker, isn't Elder Huang the most suitable person.
Learning the art of refining wine from others is inevitably scolded, Yan Yue, who is a foundation building monk, does not want to be scolded by others, but Elder Huang, who is also a teacher and friend, is different.
Therefore, after seeing Elder Huang posting the notice of accepting disciples, he turned into a mid-level Qi refining cultivator under the age of twenty and came to sign up.
After Elder Huang said the exam questions of the Hidden Spirit Technique, he secretly said in his heart, such a coincidence.
Elder Huang's mind did not hide from Yan Yue, knowing that it was impossible for ordinary people to learn the Concealment Technique in a short period of time, Elder Huang must have other intentions.
As Elder Huang expected, Yan Yue's thoughts at that time were that he was worried that if he mastered it too quickly, he would be suspected of having learned the Hidden Spirit Technique before, but at the same time, he was also worried about whether anyone in the crowd had really learned this technique.
If someone else answers first, you will miss out on the only apprenticeship.
So I have been on the defensive, and others have been in front of me to answer.
Until later, there was really no way but to name some of the characteristics of the Soul Concealment.
Unexpectedly, it aroused Elder Huang's suspicions, suspecting that he had learned the Hidden Spirit Technique before.
Yan Yue didn't have learned the Hidden Spirit Technique, but when Elder Huang was studying it, he glanced at it from the side, and then pointed it out from the side.
But if you really give an unfamiliar spell and let Yan Yue learn it, you can still learn it in a short time.
It's just that this is too amazing, although Yan Yue's appearance can change freely, his eyes can't change, if Elder Huang connects him with himself, it is very likely that he will be recognized through his eyes.
Yan Yue was now hiding from the enemy, although he knew that Elder Huang was a trustworthy person, there was still a spell in the world called soul searching.
As long as he is suspected by the various factions of the Nanming Alliance who are also in Qianyuan City, and then searches Elder Huang's soul, then Yan Yue's whereabouts will be exposed, and Elder Huang will also be affected.
Therefore, even Elder Huang would not reveal his true identity.
But now, Elder Huang has tested the smoke elimination technique that only Yan Yue himself can do.
At that time, in the Yunyang Sect, after instructing Elder Huang to hide the spirit, Elder Huang once complained that this technique was quite flawed, and Yan Yue passed on the technique of eliminating no shortcomings.
Although Elder Huang had not mastered the technique of smoke elimination until this time, he remembered the theory of this technique clearly, and after saying part of it, he looked at Yan Yue, a clever Erlenzi, and wanted to force him out of his original form.
Yan Yue saw that Elder Huang hadn't said all the tricks of this technique, he couldn't be smart enough to point this out, and after listening to it, he fell into deep thought, and then said to Elder Huang: "Master, you can show me once, I can't just listen to your lectures." β
"Hey, you're going to raise our army too!" Elder Huang scolded in his heart.
