Qu Fan remembered the hidden formation in the courtyard of the old chief, and was very curious, and asked: "The old chief, I saw you use the big formation in this courtyard to meet the thieves before, I saw it very mysterious, I don't know what kind of formation this is?" Qu Fan thought to himself, it would be great if he could learn this formation, but what reason should he find to let the old man teach himself?

"Old Chief, do you still have a formation in this courtyard?" Zhang Li was surprised, "It seems that there is nothing in this courtyard except the ground?"

"That's because you weren't there at the time, and you didn't see the old lieutenant casting a formation in this courtyard at that time. Qu Fan said to Zhang Li.

Zhang Li only knew that the old lieutenant had laid down a psychedelic array at the intersection of the village, and he wondered in his heart, when did the elder set up a large array in this courtyard again? Zhang Li's eyes looked at the old chief, waiting for the old chief to solve his doubts.

I saw that the old man seemed to be recalling something, and it took a long time to answer.

"This big array is called Taiji Liangyi Bagua Array, and it is not laid by me, it has always existed since my ancestors, and it is related to the origin of our Zhangjia Village. ”

Qu Fan and Zhang Li suddenly became interested, and looked forward to the old chief continuing to speak.

"This Tai Chi Liangyi Bagua Array, I only know how to use it, and I still need to use the staff handed down from my ancestors to be able to sacrifice, and my own cultivation is far from enough. "The origin of this staff, the old chief is not very clear, he only knows that the staff was passed down from his father and was used to sacrifice the Taiji Liangyi Bagua Array in this courtyard. ”

"We Zhangjiacun people are descendants of Zhang Tianshi's lineage, and our ancestors are from outside the territory and do not belong to the local people of the Polaris Domain. ”

Lao Li's words shocked Qu Fan and Zhang Li at the same time.

Qu Fan couldn't help but open his mouth for a while: "Zhang Tianshi, the descendant of Zhang Daoling's lineage?"

Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling can be said to be the founder of Taoism, there are many legendary deeds on the earth, Taoism respects him as the ancestor, he is proficient in the Tao Te Ching, practice the way of immortality, and later soar in the Lingtai Mountain. As soon as Qu Fan heard that the elder said that they were the descendants of Zhang Tianshi's lineage, he thought of Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling.

"Zhang Tianshi, Zhang Daoling?" the old lieutenant looked confused, "Could it be that he is also a descendant of our lineage?"

Qu Fan heard the old chief say this, and he already knew that Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling was not the Heavenly Master Zhang that the old chief said.

"Elder Li, where did your ancestors come from?"

Qu Fan had some guesses in his heart, could it be that Zhang Tianshi, the ancestor of this Zhangjia Village, could be the descendant of Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, Zhang Tianshi crossed the star field from the earth to the Polaris Domain, and spread out here?

"According to the oral accounts of our fathers, our ancestors came to this Polar Star Domain from outside the domain more than a thousand years ago, claiming to be Zhang Tianshi, who once shined in this Polar Star Domain, defeated countless masters of the cultivation world with extraordinary qualifications, and later married a saint of the fox clan to live in seclusion here, and then left only a fragmented cultivation method and ten sets of formation maps engraved in the Lingyue Cave to future generations, and then disappeared, and did not know where to go. ”

Zhang Li was secretly speechless, he didn't expect his ancestors to have such a legendary past, and he longed for it in his heart.

Qu Fan sighed that this Zhangjia Village person turned out to be the descendant of the combination of humans and demons.

The elder continued: "As for my ancestor Zhang Tianshi, who came from outside the territory, the descendants of our lineage have never been able to figure it out. ”

"Passed down from generation to generation, passed down to the fifth generation, because the exercises are incomplete, and the formation diagram is very profound and mystical and difficult to understand, it is difficult to achieve something, and I feel that it can not make the clan grow stronger, and the lintel is glorious, so Zhangjiacun has no longer practiced the fragments of the exercises and the formation diagram engraved in the Lingyue Cave since the beginning of this generation, so he went to study the art of raising silkworms, but the head of the clan must continue to practice and comprehend, in case of accidents in the future, can shelter the clansmen. ”

Saying that, the old chief felt a little thirsty in his throat, picked up the teacup, drank the tea in the cup in one go, and then put the teacup down, Qu Fan saw it, picked up the teapot and poured him a full cup again.

"It's been the fourteenth generation that has been passed down to me, and I'm ashamed to say that the things left by my ancestors have not only not been carried forward in my hands, but may also be lost to me!

Zhang Li thought to himself, the elder has no children and no daughters, isn't he going to break the inheritance, so he comforted: "The elder Lichang, the things handed down by the ancestors will definitely not be lost, there are so many people in our Zhangjia Village, don't you just choose a qualified person to be your heir?"

Hearing Zhang Li's words, the old chief's mind became active, and he looked at Qu Fan for a while, and Zhang Li for a while, and looked back and forth for a long time.

Qu Fan and Zhang Li were puzzled by his move, and wondered what this old man meant.

The old chief thought in his heart, "This little brother Qu seems to be quite interested in the formation, otherwise he wouldn't ask me about the big formation in this courtyard, if he asks him to go to the ten formations in the Lingyue Cave, he will definitely accept the love of our Zhangjia Village." Although this array is very profound and mysterious, this little brother Qu is also extraordinary! If he is allowed to understand it thoroughly, and then let him teach it to Zhang Li, it will not be broken off by the inheritance of this little thing left by his ancestors, and it will not be carried forward in Zhang Li's generation and become famous in the Polaris Domain?"

Thinking of this, the old man smiled imperceptibly.

Immediately, he stood up and said to Zhang Li with a serious expression: "Zhang Li, are you willing to take over the position of the next lieutenant chief, practice and comprehend the exercises and formations left by your ancestors, and protect the responsibility of the people of Zhangjia Village?"

Zhang Li was overwhelmed by the old chief's appearance, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Would you like to!" said the old lieutenant again, his voice a little louder.

Zhang Li said hesitantly: "I ......" The words behind him were stunned and did not come out. Zhang Li felt that he suddenly had to shoulder such a big responsibility, and he was not ready. Although he once had to worship Qu Fan as a teacher in his heart and practice to become a cultivator, he had to add a responsibility to protect the clansmen in front of him, to be honest, he was very uncertain in his heart.

His gaze involuntarily went towards Qu Fan, and when Qu Fan saw him looking at himself, he immediately understood that he lacked confidence in his heart. So, Qu Fan gave him a look that was both firm and encouraging.

This scene, the old elder saw it in his eyes and felt relieved.

After Zhang Li saw Qu Fan's eyes, he seemed to have great confidence in his heart, and said firmly: "Old Lichang, I am willing!"

When the old chief heard this, he laughed and said one word: "Good!"

Then, he turned to Qu Fan and said, "The old man has a request, and I hope that the little brother Qu must agree!"

Qu Fan was puzzled, but he still said: "Old man, please say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree." ”

"Little Brother Qu can definitely do it. The old chief smiled happily, and the folds on his face were about to drown his eyes, "Zhang Li has never practiced before, and his cultivation must be half the effort, if he doesn't understand something, please be able to point him out, in addition, the ten sets of formations left by our ancestors in Zhangjiacun, I also hope that you and Zhang Li will participate in enlightenment, if the little brother Qu can understand these ten sets of formations, please be able to teach it to Zhang Li, I don't know if the little brother Qu is willing?"

Qu Fan was overjoyed in his heart, and said in his heart that I was about to find a proper reason for you to teach me the way of formation, is this good, this is like sleeping without a pillow, someone immediately handed it over, and the joy in my heart is self-evident.

Qu Fan suppressed the joy in his heart and said calmly: "Old Chief, I'm an outsider to visit the formation left by the ancestors of Zhangjia Village, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, right?"

"There's nothing wrong with that. The old chief shook his head and said.

"Really?" Qu Fan confirmed again.

The old man had a strange look in his eyes, and said in his heart, I said that there is nothing wrong with it, how can this little brother Qu be a mother-in-law.

"Could it be that the little brother is not very willing, or do you have any concerns?" asked the old chief.

Qu Fan hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no!"

Zhang Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he still thought that Qu Fan was not very willing, and his eyes rolled twice. Suddenly, I saw him kneeling on his knees and said to Qu Fan: "Please also ask Brother Qu to accept me as an apprentice!"

Qu Fan and Lao Lichang were stunned by his sudden move.

The old lieutenant immediately reacted, and said in his heart, "Zhang Li, this kid has a good brain, if Little Brother Qu accepts him as an apprentice, then in this way, I am afraid that Little Brother Qu will not have to guide him?"

Without waiting for Qu Fan to speak, the elder said: "This is very good, little brother Qu should not refuse!"

Qu Fan hesitated for a moment, and then thought, "It's okay, so that I can go to the formation diagram handed down by the ancestors of the Zhang family in a straightforward way." ”

So, Qu Fan calmly accepted Zhang Li's kneeling and said, "Get up, I agreed." ”

Zhang Li was overjoyed when he heard this, in fact, the moment he knelt down, he was apprehensive in his heart, for fear that he would not allow Qu Fan to make such a sudden request.

When the old chief heard Qu Fan say yes, he took out an ancient parchment scroll from his bosom and said, "Zhang Li, this is for you." ”

Zhang Li stretched out his hand to take it and asked, "Old Lichang, could this be the remnants of the exercises left by our ancestors?"

"Not bad," Lao Li said, and then said to Qu Fan: "Little Brother Qu can also practice this fragment exercise with Zhang Li, although it is a fragment, but I feel that this exercise is very profound and mysterious, maybe Little Brother Qu will have unexpected gains after cultivating." ”

This was a surprise for Qu Fan, and he was also very curious about the remnants of the exercises left by the ancestors of Zhangjiacun, and the reason for this was because the ancestor of Zhangjiacun was Zhang Tianshi.

"Hmm. Qu Fan nodded and said

Zhang Li had already opened the parchment scroll, and only heard him read: "The Tao Sutra, there are three thousand avenues, take one of each..."

When Qu Fan heard the word Daojing, his heart was suddenly stunned. Then, he immediately approached Zhang Li's side to see the contents of the parchment scroll, first confused, and then overjoyed, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

It turned out that this parchment scroll recorded a part of the scriptures in the Tao Te Ching, which Qu Fan was well aware.

The scriptures of the Tao Te Ching are divided into two parts, the first part is the Tao Ching, and the second part is the Tao Ching.

And this parchment scroll records the first fourteen chapters of the Tao Sutra, but this scripture is not the other scripture.

The contents of this parchment scroll not only explain in detail the teachings and teachings of the scriptures, but also use the teachings of the scriptures to teach people how to practice.

However, he can only cultivate to the peak of the Qi Sea, because this parchment scroll only tells how to teach people how to cultivate to the Qi Sea Realm.

Qu Fan secretly sighed pity.

Although he could only cultivate to the Qi Sea Realm, it also made Qu Fan feel very mysterious. He unconsciously followed the cultivation method on this parchment scroll and started to work.

No, immediately five air currents converged from this heaven and earth, forming a five-colored air current, which sank into Qu Fan's body from the Baihui acupoint above Qu Fan's head at a speed visible to the naked eye.

According to the parchment scrolls, this five-colored air flow is the purest five-element aura in the world.

The Five Elements Spiritual Qi entered his body from the Baihui acupoint on the top of Qu Fan's head, and then went to the twelve meridians in his body.

Qu Fan felt that the five elements of the aura in the twelve meridians flowing into his body was very domineering, and he was about to expel the original stored aura in his twelve meridians from his body at this moment.

Qu Fan felt that his meridians were about to burst at this time, and an indescribable feeling of severe pain swept through his body.

He clearly felt the cold sweat flowing from his back, wetting his clothes, and the pores on his epidermis were enlarged several times.

A faint stream of air mixed with the smell of blood was discharged from Qu Fan's pores, which was the aura that had been stored in his twelve meridians, and was now squeezed out by the newly flowing five elements aura.

After about a quarter of an hour, Qu Fan felt that the intense pain was gradually disappearing, followed by the warmth of the whole body, indescribably comfortable, and he felt that the meridians were several times wider than before.

Suddenly, Qu Fan thought, can he follow the cultivation method on this parchment scroll to condense the five elements of the spiritual energy in the ten meridians to the dantian? Thinking of this, Qu Fan tried to do it, and just as he was running the exercises to condense the five elements spiritual energy into the dantian, he didn't want to, and the five elements spiritual energy quickly reversed and flowed into the meridians in reverse.

For a while, Qu Fan's face was flushed, like a fire, and he only felt the qi and blood rolling in his chest, and it took a while before it subsided, and he gasped heavily. The heart said that the eight veins of the Qi Sutra could not condense the qi to the dantian and reach the condensation realm of the Qi Sea Realm, so he had to stop exercising.

At this time, he found that the old chief and Zhang Li were looking at him with a surprised expression.
