Chapter 684: Quiet and thoughtful

"Map of China? Why do you want this?" Tang Wenyuan was stunned when he heard this. Wasn't Ye Tian studying those volumes of "Kaiyuan Dao Zang"? What does this have to do with maps?

"I want a mountain and landform map, not an ordinary map of China. Can you find it?" Ye Tian corrected Tang Wenyuan's statement.

Tang Wenyuan nodded and said: "It should be possible. If it is not available in Hong Kong, I will have someone drive directly out of the customs to buy it."

It has been three or four years since Hong Kong returned to the motherland, and its exchanges with the mainland have become more and more frequent. Many Hong Kong people even live in Shenzhen/Shenzhen, and it is very convenient to come and go.

"Market, what exactly does this mean? Who is the person who left this imprint of divine consciousness?"

After leaving Tang Wenyuan's room, Ye Tian returned to his study and fell into deep thought.

Although Ye Tian's spiritual consciousness has now greatly improved and he is infinitely close to the state of the soul leaving the body, he simply cannot separate his soul outside the body, let alone use his soul to draw pictures.

Therefore, Ye Tian dared to assert that the person who left this map of mountains and rivers must have a cultivation level far above him.

And such a person would probably not leave a mark on the pages of the book for no reason. There must be something special about the place marked with the word "market".

"It can't be something like a cave left by an expert, right?" Ye Tian grew up reading martial arts novels by Jin Yong, Gu Long and others, and his mind couldn't help but think about it.

Although Ye Tian knows that the so-called panacea that can greatly improve one's skills is nonsense, but Bao Buqi is the place where the master practiced back then. If he is lucky, he might be able to find the training method that he needs most now.

Ye Tian knew a secret. In the 1920s, an old woodcutter discovered the residence of Ge Hong in the Song Dynasty in Luofu Mountain, which was also the place where he made elixirs.

It was a pity that the old woodcutter was illiterate. After carrying dozens of scriptures left in the cave back home, he threw them all into the stove and burned them as firewood. Li Shanyuan, who rushed after hearing the news, was heartbroken.

However, Li Shanyuan was not without gains. The "Da Qi Tong Bao" he passed on to Ye Tian was bought from an old woodcutter. When he got it, the "Da Qi Tong Bao" was a magical weapon.

.

The difference between the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty was only a few decades. I am afraid this is one of the reasons why this "Da Qi Tong Bao" can be preserved. As for how it became a magical weapon, even Li Shanyuan does not know.

"It's a pity that Ge Hong's "Bao Pu Zi Nei Pian" was written. If Master could have obtained it earlier, he might have been able to enter the realm of refining the gods and returning to the void."

Ye Tian flipped his wrist, and the "Da Qi Tong Bao" fell into his palm. He had a feeling that if he could truly enter the realm of refining gods and returning to the void, he might be able to make it without the help of Yin and Yang acupoints.

Bring out the magic weapon.

It's just that now Ye Tiantian has lost all his energy, and his half-hearted soul doesn't know how to practice, so he can only think about these things.

Unknowingly, Ye Tian spent the whole afternoon in the study room with random thoughts. Gou Xinjia and others just thought that Ye Tian was in a bad mood because he could not find the cultivation method, but they did not bother him.

"Master, Mr. Tang said that the map you requested has arrived. He is looking for you everywhere." The door of the study room was pushed open by Zhou Xiaotian from the outside.

"Well, it's already dark?"

Ye Tian answered the question by looking out the window and said, "Xiao Tian, ​​please bring up the map. Don't call me during dinner tonight."

"I know, Master." Zhou Xiaotian scratched his head. He didn't know what Ye Tian was thinking, so he turned around and went downstairs to get the map.

Tang Wenyuan didn't know what kind of map Ye Tian needed. In addition to the mountain and landform map he mentioned, he also bought seven or eight more maps of different scales.

After Zhou Xiaotian went out, Ye Tian slowly spread the mountain and landform map on the desk, and at the same time prayed in his heart: "Master Patriarch, bless me, the map left by that master must be in the country!"

The earth is so big. If the terrain is not from China, even if Ye Tian is exhausted, he will not be able to find the corresponding position on the map. At this time, unlike later generations, there is no technology such as computer comparison.

"Luofu Mountain? No..."

Since he had been thinking about Ge Hong all afternoon, as soon as he spread out the map, Ye Tian looked at the location of Luofu Mountain, but he was a little disappointed.

"The three eastern provinces are not..."

With that pattern in his mind, Ye Tian's eyes quickly searched the map, and he eliminated provinces one by one.

"Huh? This...is here!"

When Ye Tian set his sights on the location of Hubei Province, a burst of ecstasy suddenly appeared in his eyes. The topographic map on the northwest border of Hubei Province was exactly the same as the pattern displayed in his mind.

"Is this Wudang Mountain?"

Ye Tian saw the name of the mountain range, but then shook his head, "No, it's not Wudang Mountain. The location of the word "market" is still behind Wudang Mountain."

"What exactly is this place?"

Ye Tian saw that the location of the word "market" was displayed on the map in front of him. It was a virgin forest, but its name was not marked on the map.

“It turns out to be Shennongjia?!”

After thinking for a while, Ye Tian took out another map of China. The scale of this map was more accurate. Ye Tian clearly saw that the location of the market was actually in the vast mountains of Shennongjia.

Ye Tian could not be said to be unfamiliar with Shennongjia, but he was not familiar with it either. He just remembered that a science and education film a few years ago specifically talked about the search for savages in Shennongjia.

Therefore, in Ye Tian's memory, besides knowing the place where Shennong Yandi tasted herbs in Shennongjia, there is also an undeveloped virgin forest.

"What does the word market mean?" Looking at the location on the map, Ye Tian scratched his head.

Judging from the location, it is the inaccessible depth of Shennongjia, which is very consistent with Ye Tian's guess that it is the residence of Taoists.

However, in ancient myths and legends, those masters often like to give the place where they live a name such as a cave or something like that. The word "market" made Ye Tian a little confused.

"Ye Tian, ​​what are you doing? I'm waiting for you to eat. It's better for you to stay here and not go out!"

Just when Ye Tian was puzzled, the door to the study room was pushed open by his mother. After Zhou Xiaotian said that the master did not want to be disturbed, only Song Weilan dared to enter his study room.

Seeing his mother's look of asking for justice, Ye Tian smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, why are you waiting for me? You guys eat first."

"No, you are just in good health and need to supplement your nutrition. Mom made you fish soup, but it won't taste good when it gets cold."

Song Weilan walked to Ye Tian's desk and looked at the maps on that table strangely. She suddenly became nervous and asked, "Xiaotian, what are you looking at these maps for? Do you want to go out again?"

Song Weilan was relieved about her son, but his injuries this time were too serious. As a mother, Song Weilan naturally didn't want Ye Tian to run around again.

"Mom, I'm looking for a place, maybe I really want to go out for two days."

Song Weilan's unconscious words reminded Ye Tian, ​​why should he look for trouble on his own? As long as he goes to the location marked on the map, everything will be solved by then.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian's heart suddenly brightened up. He stood up, put his arms around his mother's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Mom, dad cooked this fish soup, right? You are pretending to be a military leader again."

"Who said that? It was your father who did it today. Mom, I am the chef. If you don't believe me, go back and ask your father."

Interrupted by her son, Song Weilan forgot to ask Ye Tian about going out. The mother and son came to the restaurant downstairs laughing.

"Junior brother, are you okay?"

Seeing Ye Tian finally leaving the study, Gou Xinjia said with some worry: "From ancient times to the present, the method of cultivation has been the secret of each sect. Even if the "Kaiyuan Dao Zang" is not missing, it may not be in it, little junior brother

, don’t take it too seriously.”

"Senior Brother, I'm fine. I remembered a recipe handed down by my master this afternoon. It has a miraculous effect on treating people who are distracted during Qigong practice. I want to see if I can prepare the medicine?"

From the beginning, Ye Tian had no intention of telling his senior brothers about the pattern hidden on the cover of "Kaiyuan Dao Zang". This thing was invisible and intangible, so Ye Tian himself didn't believe it if he told it in vain.

Gou Xinjia was very surprised when he heard this and asked quickly: "Is there such a recipe? Ye Tian, ​​tell me and let me hear it."

"Ahem, senior brother, this recipe requires honey from hundreds of herbs and thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and the Ganoderma lucidum must be used for medicine within an hour and a half after being picked. The conditions are a bit harsh. I never thought of it."

Senior Brother's words made Ye Tian feel like he shot himself in the foot. But now that the lie was spoken, Ye Tian had to find a way to round it off, and immediately made up something that even he didn't believe.

.

What kind of person is Gou Xinjia? Naturally, he could hear the insincere meaning in Ye Tian's words. As soon as his thoughts changed, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Junior brother, you are really restless. Do you want to go out for a walk?"

This prescription requires a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, which must be harvested and used immediately. Ye Tian has already expressed his intention in his words, and naturally he wants to teach this thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.

"That's right, Senior Brother, it seems that Herbal Honey can only be found in Shennongjia behind Wudang Mountain. Moreover, there are rich medicinal materials there, and you might be able to pick thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. I want to try my luck there!"

Although he concealed his destination to Shennongjia, there was no need to conceal where he was going. Since the Gou Xin family asked, Ye Tian told him.

Gou Xinjia nodded and said: "It's okay, if you go to more famous mountains and rivers, you might encounter some opportunities. Junior brother, I will accompany you on this journey!"

Ye Tian shook his head and said: "Elder brother, you are old, so you should stop running around and let Xiao Tian follow me!"
