Fan Lan looked at the changes in everyone's expressions and said: "I think you have already gained something, but although the Liuzheng Seal can point you to the general location of the mystery, you still need to continue to read the seals if you want to really find it out.
, you are considered outstanding among your peers, and according to Xuanfu’s practice, I will first teach you a seal."
As soon as these words came out, the students sitting here all showed expressions of joy.
Zhang Yuze thought more and thought: "It seems that the methods taught in Xuanfu follow certain rules, at least on the surface. It's just that we don't know what the specific rules are here."
He had a habit of trying to find out the local customs and rules wherever he went.
There are habits brought from the previous life, and it is also for the purpose of protecting oneself, so that one can better integrate into the group. However, Xuanfu does not seem to be prepared to explain this to them, so he can only do it step by step in the future.
Observed and explored.
Fan Lan's face straightened up at this time, and he said: "Junior brothers, please don't be too hasty to rejoice. To read any seal requires divine energy. I made it clear to you yesterday, Senior Brother Xiang. Before I touched the mystery,
, when you read each Taoist chapter, you have a certain number of divine energy, and if you use a little, you will lose a little, so after the seal is given, you need to carefully consider whether to use it or not. "
After receiving his reminder, several students calmed down a little, but they also began to hesitate.
Fan Lan called an assistant and gave some instructions. Not long after the latter went down, he brought up a jade plate with pens, ink, paper, inkstones and flat bamboo sticks two fingers wide.
He said: "Junior brothers, you can write your own recognized seal names on it, and the Xuan Palace will grant the corresponding seal accordingly."
Bai Qingqing glanced at Zhang Yu, stood up first, took a step forward and walked up, but with his back to everyone, he picked up a pen and wrote a word on the bamboo stick.
He was like this because he didn't want people to know which seal he felt first.
However, everyone present is good at calligraphy. If you observe carefully, you can still tell what he is writing from his subtle movements, so this is to guard against gentlemen and not villains.
After Bai Qingqing finished writing, he put down his pen, cupped his hand towards Fan Lan, and walked down.
The remaining three students all looked at Zhang Yu at this time. Among the people, only he and Bai Qingqing were able to come up and see the three seals, so if he didn't come forward, others wouldn't dare to go up first.
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, stood up and walked up. After taking the paper and pen, he wrote a word straightly. After putting down the pen, he clasped his hands to Fan Lan and returned to his original seat.
The three students then stepped forward one by one and wrote down their feelings.
Fan Lan took it over and looked at it again. He also took a pen and wrote his name on each bamboo stick. Then he took it upon himself to cover all the bamboo sticks with silk sleeves and sealed them in different wooden boxes.
Finally, he sealed it with a seal and ordered his assistant to put a wax seal on it.
He smiled and said: "Junior brothers, please go back and wait. I will submit the sealed box before noon, and the results will be available tomorrow at the latest."
After hearing this, all the disciples stood up together, bowed and said goodbye.
Fan Lan seemed to remember something at this time and said: "By the way, Junior Brother Zhang, please stay here for a moment. I have a few words to say to you."
Several students couldn't help but cast envious looks. Bai Qingqing paused slightly, but did not look back. Instead, he quickened his pace and went out.
After Fan Lan waited for everyone to leave, he greeted Zhang Yu with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhang, come on, come and sit here with me."
Zhang Yulai came to the pavilion, sat down opposite him, and said, "Senior Brother Fan, do you have anything to tell me?"
Fan Lan smiled and said: "It's nothing. If Junior Brother Zhang comes out of the house the next day, if he sees Junior Sister Xin Yao, please say hello to me."
"Teacher Xin?"
After hearing this, Zhang Yu thought to himself: "It seems that Master Xin is indeed from Xuanfu."
However, he found that Fan Lan seemed to have misunderstood something, so he said: "Senior Brother Fan, I am not familiar with Teacher Xin, but if I can see her, I will definitely tell her."
Fan Lan was surprised and glanced at him. Seeing that he was very calm and calm, he smiled and said: "Junior Brother Zhang's application letter was submitted by Junior Sister Xin Yao. I thought you must be familiar with each other, but now it seems
But I was overthinking it. Junior sister Xin Yao recommended a talented person to Xuanfu this time."
Zhang Yu was slightly surprised. It turned out that Xin Yao had sent his study note to Xuan Mansion? No wonder he got it within two days of handing it over. He handed it over and said, "I didn't know about this. Thank you, Senior Brother Fan, for informing me."
Fan Lan waved his hand and said: "Hey, don't thank me, you will know about this sooner or later." He covered his mouth with his fist and coughed, "When you see Junior Sister Xin Yao, don't say it was me who said it, she
People don't like others to make decisions for her."
Zhang Yu's mind changed and he suddenly understood. He nodded and said, "I understand." He stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Fan, if there is nothing else to do, then Yu will leave."
"Okay, junior brother, walk slowly."
Fan Lan also stood up and returned the gift.
After Zhang Yu left, he turned sideways and looked at a delicate camellia plant next to him. He smiled and hummed softly, seeming to be in a good mood.
At this time, an assistant came over and whispered: "Master Fan, Bai Qingqing wants to see you."
Fan Lan was not surprised at all and said: "Let him come over."
The assistant went down and said hello, and a moment later, Bai Qingqing walked in from outside, reached the front of the pavilion, clasped his hands together and said, "Senior Brother Fan."
Fan Lan stood in the pavilion with his hands behind his hands and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Bai, are you looking for me for anything else?"
Bai Qingqing said: "I went back and thought about it carefully, and I felt that there was something wrong with the seal I just wrote, so I came back to ask Senior Brother Fan if I could change it."
Fan Lan gave him a thoughtful look and said: "Of course. Before I hand over the signature, it can be changed. But I can tell you that everyone here today is a gentleman, and no one is prying at you.
If you want the name of the seal, I will write it down and submit it to you. If so, do you still insist on changing it?"
Bai Qingqing said without hesitation: "Yes!"
Fan Lan was also happy and immediately asked his assistant to bring him a bamboo stick of pen and ink so that he could change it.
Bai Qingqing took the pen, flicked his wrist, and instantly poured ink on it. Once the ink was dry, he picked it up with both hands and handed it over.
Fan Lan didn't bother to take a closer look. He still sealed it up in the order he had just given. As for the wooden box that sealed the bamboo sticks before, he didn't return it to Bai Qingqing and kept it there.
After Bai Qingqing bowed his hands and bowed, he strode back.
Fan Lan thought in his mind: "This Bai Qingqing is not trusting. He knows how to look for loopholes in existing rules and will never change his decision after making it. He is indeed a talent."
Although Bai Qingqing is thoughtful and has some shortcomings of eager for quick success, in his opinion, this is not a bad thing. It is precisely because of his obsession that he will be more focused when building roads. And as far as he knows, such people are actually
He was even more appreciated by his senior brothers.
He waited for a while, and when no one came there, he said to the assistant: "Take your things and follow me into the temple."
After Zhang Yu returned, he saw that all the students' doors were closed. They were obviously trying to save more divine energy. He also walked straight into his monastery. After closing the door, he washed himself briefly and took a few pills.
Yuanyuan Dan, sit down on the couch and start breathing.
But what he used was not the breathing technique taught by Fan Lan, but his own breathing technique.
This method can not only boost the spirit and replace sleep, but also condense the divine energy. The key is to practice it continuously for several years. It has almost become the body's instinct. If you use other breathing methods, you may not be able to adapt.
.
The whole day was passed by everyone quietly practicing, and when the sun came up, someone came and knocked on the door of Zhang Yu and others' houses, asking Fan Lan to greet them.
Zhang Yu sorted it out for a while, pushed it out, and walked outside the pavilion. He happened to see Bai Qingqing walking out with a jade box in his hand. The man nodded to him and walked away in big steps.
.
The assistant made an invitation at the foot of the hall and said: "Junzi Zhang, Master Fan invites you to come in."
Zhang Yu walked into the hall and saw Fan Lan standing in the hall waiting for him, so he came up to greet him.
After Fan Lan returned the gift, he said with a smile: "Junior brother Zhang, on the bamboo stick you filled in, it was stated that the seal that is most consistent with yourself is the 'body seal', so the Xuan Palace gave you this seal."
He waved his hand, and an assistant brought a tray with a slender wooden box and a book on it.
"Junior Brother Zhang, what is inside the wooden box is the seal. After you read the album, if you have no objections, please leave your name seal on it. These will be stored in the Xuanfu records for verification.
.”
Zhang Yu picked up the book and flipped through it, and saw that the name of the seal given by Xuanfu was written on it. Below was the specific date of the seal, as well as the name and seal of the person who passed the seal.
After reading it, he took a pen from the assistant, wrote his name and surname, took out his private seal and stamped it. After doing this, he took the wooden box and put it in his sleeve pocket.
middle.
Fan Lan smiled and said: "Junior Brother Zhang, if you have nothing to do, you can leave the house today."
Zhang Yu looked up and said, "Oh? Can you leave the house now?"
Fan Lan nodded and said: "Now what I should teach you has been taught. As long as we have enough divine energy, we can practice it. We don't have to sit around and study all day long, and we don't have to ponder the profound principles. Of course, if you will teach me
Once you have passed the Seal Observation and Reading, you can come back to the mansion at any time, and Xuanfu will decide whether to pass on a new seal to you based on your specific progress."
Zhang Yu thought about it and said: "In other words, if I need to read a new seal, I need to ask the Xuanfu for it every time? Is there anything special about this?"
Fan Lan smiled and said: "Since that's the case, if there is no Xuanfu teaching, how can you get the seal to read?" He paused, "Xuanfu sometimes asks you to do some things. If you do it well, it will also
I don’t hesitate to grant the seal, but you have just started to get started. Even if it is given to you now, you don’t have enough divine energy to read it, so there is no need to think too much, just consolidate the foundation first.”
Zhang Yu nodded, clasped his hands together, and said, "Thank you very much, Senior Brother Fan, for your advice. I don't think I will have anything to ask for help from Senior Brother in the future, so I will take my leave today."
Fan Lan said: "Easy to say, easy to say." He returned the gift with his hands clasped, "Then I won't give it to you as a brother."
Zhang Yu turned around and walked out of the palace. At this time, he looked back and saw the golden crow falling in the west and the red clouds filling the sky, half submerged above the eaves. It looked extremely magnificent, but it was gradually being swallowed up by the rising night.
He withdrew his gaze, went back to the Jingshe first, said hello to Zheng Yu, and then left the Xuan Mansion. He only stopped for a while when passing the ancient statue, absorbing a little source energy underneath, and then
We walked back and returned to our original residence before nightfall.
He took a shower, washed himself, put on a comfortable Taoist robe, sat down on the futon, breathed for a moment, and when his mind calmed down, he picked up the wooden box given by Xuanfu and opened it.
