"Hu Yanming, the 'vampire' of the Blood Refining Hall?!"
Xu Rui thought for a moment and had no impression of this person in his mind.
Nothing surprising though.
His information about Zhu Xian's spiritual world all comes from the book Zhu Xian, but the content of a book is compared to a complete and huge world.
It seems that the fireflies are far behind compared to the bright moon.
"Senior Brother Cheng, you are polite. You and I are from the same sect. It is our duty to help each other. There is no need to thank you." Xu Rui said with a smile.
"Having said that, how can I not thank you for saving your life?" He paused and said, "Junior Brother Xu, not far from here is Zhaozhou City. The 'Charcoal Grilled Golden Pheasant' served at Su's Restaurant in the city is the best within a hundred miles. .Senior brother, I will be the host, how about I treat you to a meal?"
Cheng Chong intends to make friends with this junior fellow student who has amazing strength and a promising future, so his attitude is very enthusiastic at the moment.
Although Xu Rui wanted to go to Heishidong as soon as possible to find the whereabouts of the 'Xuan Huo Jian', Cheng Chong was too kind to refuse, and it didn't take much time to have a meal, so he agreed.
"This will disturb Senior Brother Cheng."
Cheng Chong smiled happily and waved his hand quickly.
"Junior brother, you're welcome, please."
"please."
The two of them urged the escaping light to fly toward the east for thirty or forty miles, when a large city that did not belong to Heyang appeared in front of them.
Different from the Maoshan Spiritual World and the Ghost Blowing Lamp Spiritual World, ordinary people living in big cities in the Zhuxian Spiritual World are no strangers to spiritual practice and are used to seeing monks who come and go.
The two fell down and entered through the city gate.
Soon, under the leadership of Cheng Chong, they followed the bustling streets that ran through the city and arrived at the outside of a three-story restaurant with cornices and brackets, which looked extremely gorgeous.
"Junior brother, this is it."
After looking at the golden plaque of 'Su's Restaurant', Xu Rui took a gentle sniff, and an indescribable aroma made his index finger twitch.
Cheng Chong saw this, smiled slightly, and led Xu Rui in.
When I walked in, I saw that in the open lobby, under red lanterns, more than thirty mahogany square tables were almost full.
There was a buzz of people and a cloud of guests.
A boy came over quickly.
"What do you two gentlemen eat?"
"Are there any private rooms on the second floor?" Cheng Chong asked.
"Yes, yes. Please follow me."
The boy led the two of them to the second floor, found a room facing the window and walked in.
The decoration here is obviously much better than that on the first floor.
Exquisite paintings of ladies are hung on the walls, decorative porcelain is placed in the corners, and the tables and chairs are also carefully made. It can be called a gallery painting, extremely elegant.
"Are you two gentlemen satisfied with this place?"
"Junior Brother Xu, what do you think of this place?" Cheng Chong asked.
"Not bad, that's it."
Xu Rui nodded.
"Waiter, let's have one of your specialty dishes, and by the way, a pot of your Su family's aged plum wine." He took out a tael of gold from the bag and slapped it on the table.
As soon as he saw the gold, the boy's lips reached up to his ears, and his enthusiasm increased several levels.
"Haha, don't worry, gentlemen, I'll serve it to you right away."
The boy left in a hurry.
"Junior brother, please sit down."
"Senior brother please."
After the two sat down opposite each other.
"Junior brother, coming down the mountain this time is just for training?"
Xu Rui nodded, "Exactly."
"I wonder when junior brother will join Master Tian's sect?" Cheng Chong asked.
Because there are not many people in Dazhu Peak, the entire Qingyun Sect disciples basically know that Cheng Chong and Song Daren still have a certain friendship.
But he never knew that there was a fifth disciple in Dazhu Peak.
Seeing his curious look, Xu Rui didn't hide anything.
"About three years ago."
"Three years?!" Cheng Chong blurted out with shock on his face, "Junior brother only needed three years to break through to the fourth level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao?"
"good."
After a long time, Cheng Chong took a breath and said in an exclamation tone.
"Junior brother has broken the record of my Qingyun Sect for many years. In this regard,
Even Senior Brother Xiao Yicai and Senior Brother Qi Hao are not as good as Junior Brother."
"Senior brother, you are exaggerating. The fourth level of Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao is just another beginning. Not to mention the realm of Shang Qing and Tai Qing, it is the Jade Pure Realm. It is not easy to cultivate to perfection. I am still far away." Xu Ruitanran.
road.
"It's rare for a junior brother to have such great achievements and still be so calm. I admire him."
"Senior brother, you are overly praised."
While they were talking, the waiter opened the door and brought out the dishes they ordered earlier.
Placed in the middle is a roasted chicken that is roasted orange-red and is about the same size as a turkey.
The rich aroma hit his nostrils, which attracted Xu Rui's attention.
"Two distinguished guests, this is the green plum wine you ordered. Please use it with caution."
The boy stepped back respectfully.
Cheng Chong opened the wine jar, and a strong aroma of wine filled the air.
Pour Xu Rui a glass.
"Junior Brother Xu, the green plum wine of this old store of the Su family is also outstanding. It has a refreshing taste and a fragrance on the lips and teeth. It is famous far and wide in Zhaozhou City."
"Then you should have a good taste."
"Don't worry, let's try this 'Charcoal Grilled Golden Pheasant' first."
"Then I'm not welcome."
Xu Rui had long been tempted by its aroma. After saying a polite word, he directly pulled off a thick chicken leg and put it in his mouth to taste it.
The meat is very juicy and has a rich aroma.
After eating it quickly, it was quickly refined into spiritual energy by his powerful digestion ability.
"It's indeed a good thing. Even the steamed fish from Heyang Chengshan Haiyuan is nothing more than that." Xu Rui said.
"Haha, what my junior brother said is true. This charcoal-roasted golden pheasant is made from the three-tailed golden pheasant in Sheyang Mountain, thirty miles outside Zhaozhou City."
"The three-tailed golden pheasant is also a spiritual creature that is not inferior to the sleepy fish."
Xu Rui nodded understandingly, "Then let's have a good taste today."
"Junior brother, feel free to eat as much as you want, if there is not enough, we will ask for more."
"Then it will cost senior brother money."
The two chatted while eating, and most of the food and wine on the table were quickly eaten.
"By the way, I forgot to ask before. Why did senior brother come to this area of 'Zhaozhou City'?"
"Junior brother, don't you know?"
"I was about to ask for advice."
After confirming that he really didn't know, Cheng Chong said: "There is a 'Qingsong Temple' in Sheyang Mountain. The owner of the temple, 'Mr. Songda', is one of my senior masters in the righteous path. In two days, he will be the one who
It is a Dharma lecture held once every six months. Countless righteous monks will come to listen to the lecture."
Xu Rui suddenly realized and thought to himself.
"This Mr. Songda is probably also a strong soul."
"Senior Brother Cheng, I wonder how Mr. Songda became enlightened?"
"Of course it's Aoki Road."
"In this case, it can no longer follow the way of senior brother." Xu Rui said.
Chaoyang Peak mainly practices Chunyang Dao in Qingyun Sect, and there are also many Fire Dao, but there are few disciples who practice Qingmu Dao. The one Cheng Chong left was Chunyang Dao.
"Having said that, Mr. Songda has a high level of cultivation. Although he is more accomplished on the Aoki Road, one method can be understood and a hundred methods can be understood. You can't draw parallels from what you hear."
Xu Rui nodded in agreement.
Various Taoisms do not exist in isolation. Different Taoisms communicate with each other and can indeed play an inspiring role.
"Besides, I didn't go to Qingsong Temple just to listen to Taoism." Cheng Chong said with a smile.
"oh?"
"Junior brother may not know it for the first time when he comes down the mountain. When the senior masters are giving sermons, monks gather together. Many people will take this opportunity to sell the spiritual objects that they have no use for. Although all kinds of things are mixed, if
If you're lucky, you might even be able to get a lot of treasure out of it."
"...It is rumored that the Tianhe Divine Sword, the main weapon of the Yunzhou Lijiang Sword Sect, was a treasure taken from a stall where he gave a sermon."
Xu Rui understood that there were so many people responding to the sermon at Qingsongguan, but the sermon was the second most important thing. The key was the market behind.
"Senior brother, since all the monks have the need to exchange spiritual materials, why is there no permanent market in the practice world specifically for monks to buy and sell spiritual materials?"
"Originally, there were some, but they were all destroyed by the Demon Cult." Cheng Chong sighed, "There is a lot of wealth gathered in the city, and it is easy to attract the prying eyes of those demons. Once they are targeted, they will be robbed in just a few days.
It became a white field."
"...Rogue cultivators and many small and medium-sized sects do not dare to hold such a market anymore. However, Tianyin Temple, Fenxiang Valley and my Qingyun Sect, which can compete with the demon sect, are afraid that their disciples will distract from the safety and order of the market and delay their own practice.
, so I refused.”
"...As a result, the practice world has become what it is now. People take advantage of the great monks to preach, so they choose to take shelter in the great monks' ashram and exchange some spiritual objects that they have no use for."
Xu Rui nodded clearly, uukanshu www.uukanshu.com In the final analysis.
Tianyin Temple, Fenxiang Valley and Qingyun Gate do not need the market. They naturally control the most abundant resources in the practice world. Even without the supply of the market, they can live very comfortably.
However, the "little people" who need the market cannot stop the greed of the demon sect.
The result is what it is now.
"How's it going? Now, junior brother, are you interested in the sermons at Qingyun Temple?"
Xu Rui nodded.
"There is no way I should let Senior Brother Cheng lead the way for me."
"Haha, this is easy. Let's find an inn to stay for two days until the sermon starts. It won't be too late to go there."
"Everything depends on my senior brother's arrangements."
There is no rush to go to Black Rock Cave. Moreover, the sermon at Qingsongguan will not last too long.
The two were drinking and chatting, quite speculatively.
After eating, we walked around Zhaozhou City under the leadership of Cheng Chong.
So we found an inn and stayed.
After the two separated, Xu Rui waved his hand, sealed the room, and took out the Taiyi Staff.
There was a flash of light, and the body of Hu Yanming, the 'vampire' he had killed, flew out.
This person is already in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, and he has obtained two marrow cleansing points after refining.
He stretched out his hand and a long black flag fell into his palm.
This black sail is three feet long and two feet wide.
The edges are jagged, and a blood-red skull is embroidered with cyan lines on the flag.
Gold Finger Manifestation.
"Hundred Poisons and Blood Demon Banner, an eighth-grade medium spiritual weapon."
"It's not bad."
Xu Rui nodded with satisfaction.
If he hadn't broken through the golden elixir in cultivation, and the power of the three great magical powers had reached the top of the golden elixir, he might not have been able to break through the blockade of the 'Hundred Poisons and Blood Evil Banners' so easily, and kill Hu Yanming with one blow.
Think for a moment.
With a slap on the magic bag, the mirage flew out from it.
