Chapter 48 asked

"Okay, let's exchange that. The monk put the dark iron into the storage bag, threw the copper bell and a thin booklet over, and said: "It's still a Taoist friend, if it weren't for my urgent need for a spirit stone, this treasure wouldn't be sold. ”

After that, the monk turned and left, presumably looking for somewhere to sell the iron.

Ishikawa put the copper bell in the storage bag, and before he had time to look closely, he hurriedly escaped into the flow of people.

The asking price, the bargaining sound, one after another, one transaction after another is carried out in an orderly manner.

It can be said that in the current Xiuzhen Town, there are only those you can't take out, and there is nothing to sell, of course, provided that the price is right.

After another quarter of an hour, Ishikawa finally arrived at his destination, which should be the most marginal location of Xiuzhen Town, but its popularity is no weaker than that of the center of the town.

Moreover, only monks above the sixth level of the Qi cultivation period are allowed to enter here, that is, true innate stage cultivators.

This place was something Ishikawa had heard about occasionally in the inn. Nominally a teahouse, but in reality, it is a place of communication for monks.

The teahouse provides the latest news from the local cultivation world every day, and there are special monks who study the news. For example, the discovery of the ancient monk's cave in a certain place, or the dispute between two sects.

What's more, the monks can exchange their cultivation experiences here.

Three or five strange monks, the cultivation is about the same. You can spend a small amount of spirit stones, rent a quiet room, talk about your feelings, and everyone will mention each other, and naturally benefit a lot.

In the teahouse, it is rumored that there are monks in the foundation building period, so the safety is also greatly guaranteed.

Ishikawa was wearing a black mask, and as soon as he entered the door, he immediately attracted the attention of several people, but the cultivation of the eighth layer of the Qi cultivation period that Ishikawa showed was not to be taken lightly by everyone.

Finding a casual table to sit down, Ishikawa slowly sipped his tea while listening carefully to the other monks' conversations.

After a while, a monk wearing a yellow Taoist robe came to Ishikawa's side and said in a low voice: "The contemptible people set up a room upstairs and invited Taoist friends to study the Dao method together, I don't know if Taoist friends are interested." ”

Ishikawa was overjoyed, he didn't expect to wait so soon, and quickly nodded in agreement.

Entering the booked room, there were already four people in the room, plus Ishikawa and the monk who invited Ishikawa, there were exactly six people.

Except for the monks in yellow robes, who were slightly better dressed, everyone else was dressed in general, and they should all be ordinary monks, but their cultivation was not low, and all of them were monks at the eighth level of the Qi cultivation period.

The four of them were talking about something enthusiastically, and they were all very happy to see the yellow-robed Taoist leading Ishikawa in, but when they saw Ishikawa's mask again, they were a little stunned.

"Zuo Daoyou, why did you bring this Daoist friend here and didn't dare to see people with his true face?" said an old man who looked to be in his fifties, stroking his white beard.

"We're here to communicate with each other, so why care about faces. After today's exchange, the six of us don't know what year and month we will be able to meet, and even if we do, what will happen. Ishikawa said quietly.

"That's what this fellow Taoist said. The yellow-robed Taoist hurriedly played a round game, but he secretly said in his heart: "If it weren't for the fact that the cultivation of the monks in the teahouse is very low, I wouldn't have come to you." ”

"What do you call this fellow Daoist?"

Ishikawa said without hesitation: "Just call me Chuanshi." Ishikawa turned the name upside down, for fear that there was someone in it who was from the Water Spirit Gate. Even if there is no Water Spirit Gate here, if one day I talk to someone about studying the Dao method with a person named Ishikawa, and the one named Ishikawa also has the cultivation of the eighth layer of the Qi cultivation period.

The probability that this matter could reach Elder Yun's ears was very small and almost negligible.

But Ishikawa doesn't take any risks.

"Chuan Daoyou, let me introduce you, the oldest is Song Henian Daoyou. ”

Ishikawa bowed his hand, although this person had a lot of doubts just now, but these etiquette numbers are still indispensable.

The one who looks a little rough is called Lu Daoyuan, the one who is a little bookish is called Chen Yu, and the only female cultivator is called Liu Yu. These three people, whose attitude was much better than Song Henian's, all returned the favor to Ishikawa.

The yellow-robed monk said happily: "Under the surname Zuo, the name is Jun Ao, he is the young master of Zuojiazhuang three hundred miles away, and it is really a blessing to be able to meet so many fellow friends today." Therefore, I will bear the room fee for today, although everyone exchanges experiences, it is okay for three days and three nights. ”

As soon as Zuo Junao's words came out, the four of them suddenly burst into laughter. According to the usual practice, the cost of using the room is paid together, and Zuo Junao's move allows everyone to save a few spirit stones.

"Then thank you Zuo Daoyou. The old man's face also improved slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Chuan, why don't you introduce your origins, these four fellow Daoists are all scattered cultivators from afar. ”

Ishikawa said lightly: "I am also a casual cultivator in Xia, but I have a better chance, and I got the guidance of a senior, and I barely cultivated to the eighth level of the Qi cultivation period." ”

"So, Chuan Daoyou has a teacher?" Zuo Junao's face changed slightly, but it instantly became normal.

These subtle changes did not hide from Ishikawa's eyes.

"It's just that I had some guidance earlier, but I don't have the status of master and apprentice, and I haven't seen him for a long time. Ishikawa said casually, lest Zuo Junao ask endlessly.

However, Ishikawa secretly wondered in his heart, why did this person care so much about whether he had a master or not, and although the Zuo family was not very powerful, it was a Xiuzhen family after all. He could have found some monks from famous sects to discuss the Dao Fa, why did he want to find such a group of loose cultivators?

However, Ishikawa is here to discuss Taoism, and Ishikawa is not interested in whether this person has any ideas.

Hearing Ishikawa's words, Zuo Junao smiled slightly and said, "Since all of you fellow Daoists have known each other, let's talk about the problems we have encountered in our cultivation one by one." I'm the youngest, and the Taoism is too shallow, so I ask a few Taoist friends for more guidance. ”

After that, Zuo Junao threw out all the problems and bottlenecks he had encountered in his cultivation. After Ishikawa heard this, he also thought that these problems had been encountered when Ishikawa was cultivating.

Song He coughed young and said: "Zuo Daoyou's spiritual power in his body is not smooth, maybe the cultivation of the exercises is related, the cultivation of the truth, the cultivation of the exercises is more than ordinary, the cultivation of certain exercises will make people become pure and have few desires, after a long time, the stagnation stored in the body, it will be stagnant, and even lead to the stagnation of the Dao method." ”

Ishikawa's expression changed slightly, what Song Henian said was not wrong, since he cultivated Lin Fengjiao's "Tuna Decision", Ishikawa felt that his heart had changed a lot, although because of the great pressure in Shuilingmen, but Ishikawa had completely lost the feeling of not being afraid of heaven and earth in Shijia Village, but had a sense of wisdom and caution.

"Then how to solve this kind of problem?" Zuo Jun asked anxiously. The other four were also very interested.

"A family member like you has been cultivating within the family for a long time. Normally, we encounter this kind of problem, and when we are distracted, we encounter a lot fewer opportunities, because we have to spend time looking for spirit stones and elixirs. And those disciples of the Great Gate Sect, every once in a while, they would be sent out to practice. It's all about solving this stagnation problem. As long as Zuo Daoyou goes out and walks around often, he should get better. ”

"Thank you Song Daoyou for your advice. Zuo Junao looked grateful.

"Song Daoyou is really well-informed, admired. Chen Yu also praised him.

Song Henian was not polite and accepted it safely.
