The years fly in the mountains, and there is no cold and heat in cultivation. In the blink of an eye, I was in the Longhu Cave, and I had already stayed in the middle of the first year of Zhengtai.

For more than a month, I was familiar with most of the people who lived in Longhu Mountain, and I also got to know dozens of Jindanmen who traveled to and from Longhu Mountain under the recommendation of Pianpian. Kunlun rewarded me with the abundance of pills (if I overspend, I would use the future production of my own dojo to pay for it), and I was happy to set aside some of it as a favor to make Taoist friends.

Most of the people in Longhumen are good at spells, followed by magic weapons, and there is no shortage of flying swords and various spells. Kunlun and the Dragon and Tiger Sects have a close relationship, and I have not only obtained the mountaineering talisman for the head of Qingyu to enter and exit most of the courtyards, but also have the responsibility of representing the two sects and the Sword Sect to fight, and I can always find many high-strength Dragon and Tiger Jindan to learn from me.

Usually, the sect and other lineage communication techniques are dealing with outsiders in the Huitong Yuan. But my situation is special, and I was able to go to the Dragon and Tiger Sect's Transmission Institute to learn Taoism, and compete and discuss with their inner disciples. For more than 30 days, I had nearly 100 battles with the people of the Longhumen people of the Chuan Gong Academy, winning and losing.

My purpose is not to defeat the enemy, but to integrate the basic Dao techniques that I did not study when I was a teenager, while accumulating experience in fighting methods to deal with various situations. In the past 100 fights, I have always been weak but not strong, and strong and not weak. Those who have a good relationship with me, I always try to defeat him in the end; those who despise me, secretly give him a little color in the fighting method; there are more than ten dragon and tiger Jindan elders, and I can't win without the powerful changes in the general outline of the Heavenly Thunder Law. I simply threw in the towel and humbly asked them for advice. This trick has been tried and tested: those old boys and old women who are a few years old always take the trouble to explain the supernatural powers to me when they see my humble posture.

The four golden pills are all characters who have been in and out of life and death for more than half a jiazi, with a solid foundation, no shortcomings, and the strain experience is the best among cultivators. I was studying with the people of the Dragon Tiger Gate in the Chuangong Academy, trying to make up for the gap with them, and browsing around the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Tibetan Academy and Fu Bao Academy, I was expanding my knowledge of cultivation—Ji Liuli ordered me to be like a well-informed Kunlun disciple in front of the Emperor of Middle-earth, rather than an underworld figure who only knew how to slash and kill.

Compared to the dazzling array of spirit runes in the Fu Bao Courtyard, I prefer to linger in the Dharma Collection Courtyard of the Dragon and Tiger Sect.

It's not that I suddenly turned to reading old books.

It's just that the bookkeepers in the library of the Fazangyuan are extremely talkative. Every other day, I go to the Dharma Tibetan Monastery and listen to their nonsense, which is a hundred times more interesting than my painstaking reading of secular and Taoist ancient history texts.

Those who have spirits in the world can cultivate, and the book demon is the leader of the instrument spirit. There are a total of nine book demons in the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Tibetan Academy, all of which are ancient books that have been handed down from generation to generation and opened wisdom by listening to the Dragon and Tiger Patriarch's discussions. The first of the nine book demons is the "Nanhua Sutra" Cheng Jing, self-named "Nanhuazi"; the other seven Jindan book demons, a key to the three caves, four auxiliaries and seven library scriptures; and the last weak book demon "Puffer" who has just entered the Jindan is responsible for the miscellaneous work.

Every time, Pian Pian took me to the Qingming study of the Dharma Tibetan Monastery and ordered eight pillars of benzoin as a reward (I paid for the expenses). The waiter's flutterer arrived with copies of the books we had asked for from the stacks, and eight other book demons, each with a clone of the Yin Gods, floated into the Qingming study to talk to us about the past and the present.

Feng Meng asked the flutter to borrow the flowers, birds, fish and insects in the Tibetan courtyard to watch and play. The black and white bear flipped through it and drooled. I told him several times not to wet the authentic works of the great painters of ancient and modern times.

A few days later, Liu Ziyue and Zhiyi also shook to the Fazang Temple. Liu Ziyue loves roadside editorials the most, and keeps recording the gossip of book demons in his booklets;

Among the Nine Book Demons, Nanhuazi loves to brag the most.

It said that he opened his spiritual wisdom when Patriarch Zhou Chunan reviewed the "Nanhua Sutra" seven hundred years ago, and his qualifications were the first living beings of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, and that is, the second generation of patriarch Shouyi Zhenren had to politely call his senior brother when he saw him. The cat tail of the ancestor of the Luo Shen family has been touched more than once, and the little loach of the Ao family (the ancestor of the Dragon Demon of the East China Sea) was sealed in a ball of mud by the golden cicada of the king of Chu, and he still dug it out with Zhou Chunan's magic weapon.

I asked the Yuanying Book Demon, the Golden Qilin Four who relieved us in the Council Hall is not as recognizable as it?

"That little horned beast! I watched with my own eyes the one who was born--tell you: Two hundred years ago, the last demon king of the Qilin demon was poor and naturalized to the sect, and gave birth to twins in Xiangrui Town on his deathbed. Boyang of the Sword Sect took away the white unicorn, and guarded the golden unicorn and carried it back to the mountain. ”

Nanhuazi's eyes closed, then opened, adding,

"The newborn golden unicorn has no mother beast milk to eat, and it is dying. Real people are helpless. Fortunately, this book is in a hurry, and I found a woman in Xiangrui Town who was like a spring of milk and water to feed her--The woman's child was also accepted as a fairy seedling by the fairy chief--Pianpian little doll, whether the woman was the grandmother or biological mother of your father Shangguan Tianquan--Ah, I don't remember clearly for a while. ”

The tone of the Yuanying Book Demon was faintly proud. It seems that he is not only the Engong who continues the Qilin lineage, but also the Engong of the Shangguan family who embarks on the road of cultivating immortals.

There is no argument whether this is true or false.

Even Liu Ziyue looked embarrassed and couldn't believe it.

"I ...... Although my father was born in Xiangrui Town, he never heard this anecdote from him. Pian Pian unconsciously stroked her chest, and then timidly defended.

"Can't you believe this book!" Nanhuazi flicked his sleeves.

"Don't dare, don't dare. ”

The girl in Tsing Yi said busily.

Nanhuazi began to pick me again:

"Yuan Xiaohua, I heard that you are going to the imperial capital to see the Son of Heaven?

I nodded. There are not a few dragon and tiger disciples who come and go to the Fazang Academy, and the book demons always know this rumor.

"The imperial capital is a good place. Ay. When I was young, this book also followed Patriarch Zhou, as well as Dragon, Tiger and Shouyi, and they went to the imperial capital to play. At that time, the patriarch destroyed the most powerful prince in the world, the king of Chu, Jin Chan, and the momentum of this sect was like the sky, and every day there were inheritances, land, and household registration invested in the door. The view of the palace of the emperor is high into the sky, and the nine-fold palace of the Son of Heaven is in full view. How can there be any Taoist priests in the countryside of Shushan?"

The book demon sighed.

――Today, I finally know that the only place in the imperial capital that is above the imperial palace is the Taiji Palace of the Sword Sect. The Liangyi Palace of the Dragon and Tiger Sect in the imperial capital is now just a building smaller than the Prince's Mansion. Even such a small Liangyi Palace is the only palace of the Dragon and Tiger Sect outside of Wu and Yue, and every county in Middle-earth has a majestic palace of the Sword Sect, even including the Lingya Gate where the Shangguan family is entrenched.

“...... The emperors of Middle-earth in the era of civilization incorporated the best of the five continents into the imperial capital. Wealth, Relics, Food, Games, Men and Women, Courtyards...... There's a qiē you can think of, and there's a novelty you can't think of. Even the books are the most extensive and profound in the world! The best friend Mo Yi made in the imperial capital was a book demon called "The Great Book of Civilization": it was a thick book with large banana leaves and glittering gold. In total, it has not been seen for 400 years. ”

"The Great Book of Civilization, there are so many people in the world that they are like sesame seeds, do you remember all this book demon?"

I don't believe it.

"Of course, the emperors of Middle-earth at the end of civilization had great ambitions, wanted to live forever, and wanted to live forever. The "Great Book of Civilization" is one of the great undertakings that do not tire of the voluminous cause, to preserve the essence of the wisdom of all ethnic groups in ancient and modern times; after the Taoist priests of Shushan supported the Taizheng Dynasty, the imperial court in the imperial capital continued this cause. The "Dictionary of Civilization" opened up its spiritual wisdom 500 years ago, and it not only knows everything about secular learning, but also has a great knowledge of the classics and methods of the cultivation realm. ”

The old book demon Nan Huazi was stunned, pointing to the other eight book demons,

"In the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Collection, we know everything about the classics inside and outside the world, but the Dharma collection in the chest of the "Great Book of Civilization" is ten times that of us combined. ”

The eight book demons nodded in unison.

My mind moved,

"Nanhuazi, why didn't the sect divide this book into four parts, but instead stayed in the imperial capital?"

"Hahaha, the emperor's family is from Shushan Gate, how can the disciple's private property master be forcibly seized?" Nanhuazi laughed, "What's more, if the elders of the Sword Sect want to inquire about its ancient and modern affairs, they can fly directly to the Central Secretary Pavilion in the imperial capital." ”

"I wonder if we outsiders have the opportunity to pay homage to the "Civilization Canon" in the imperial capital?"

Pian Pian muttered to herself.

"Huh. As long as we defeat the Sword Sect in the Lantern Festival Night Fighting Method, the little emperor is embarrassed to refuse this small request. ”

I patted the girl in Tsing Yi on the shoulder. I will be alone in my inquiry into the delusion of the Great Book of Civilization. During these days, I was knocking on the side, and the nine book demons could only vaguely talk about the delusional tribulation of the Void Returner, which was not what I wanted.

A small paper crane suddenly stopped at the desk of Qingming Study.

Liu Ziyue opened it and looked at it,

"Ladies and gentlemen, the head of Qingyu is about to discuss the Dao Dharma for the disciples of the two sects, and Princess Lin urges us to go quickly. Elder Pouncer, the head of Qingyu allowed Princess Lin to lend you out of the Dharma Tibetan Academy, and Feng Meng gave it to her--In addition, Princess Lin reminded the former junior brother to change into a splendid robe to go to the meeting, which was a solemn occasion. ”

"Got it - Senior Sister Pian Pian has told me many times today. ”

I said impatiently.

Pian Pian said that there are eight books in the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Tibetan Academy, which must not be half a step out of the library, that is, the eight book demons. Puff is the ninth book demon, and it turns out that according to the canon, it can't leave the Fazang Temple for half a step.

The flutter turned into an ancient book and flew into Fengmeng's treasure bag.

The cover page of that book is the gluttonous beast pattern on the ancient Ding ritual vessel. On the cover page were written in three gold stones, and I silently recited:

"The Book of Mountains and Seas".
