Zhao Rong felt a shiver in his heart, his expression remained unchanged, he turned his head slightly as if casually, looked at the imperial palace that was about to pass by on the street next to him, and said calmly in his heart: "Where is it?"
"The group of little Taoist boys in front of the sedan."
At this time, the train carriage had already passed most of Zhao Rong. From Zhao Rong's perspective, the line of sight was blocked by the luxurious sedan carried by more than 20 people, making it impossible to see the target clearly.
Zhao Rong frowned slightly and was about to follow, but suddenly thought of Su Xiaoxiao beside him, turned around and saw her looking at him with a strange look on her face.
Su Xiaoxiao curiously looked in the direction that Zhao Rong had been staring at just now, "Zhao Rong, what are you looking at?"
Zhao Rong didn't respond. He reached out and took out some silver coins from his pocket. He turned around and walked to a stall nearby. He bought a few candy figures and handed them to Su Xiaoxiao, telling her to wait for him where he was and not to run around.
Seeing the little fox demon happily taking it and nodding like a rattle, Zhao Rong turned around and hurriedly chased towards the carriage in front.
At this time, there were many people following the Imperial Master on the street, most of them vying for the talisman water and talisman paper that could "channel spirits", so Zhao Rong, a Confucian scholar carrying a bookcase on his back, was not too conspicuous among them.
After a while, Zhao Rong caught up with the carriage and came to the right side of it. He squeezed in the crowd and followed in unison. Through the crowd of heads in front, he looked at the group walking on the Zhongzhong Avenue through the gap.
The Taoist boy asked: "Which Taoist boy is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Rong quickly reached out and grabbed a floating red talisman paper, turned his head left and right and "smiled proudly" at the people around him who hadn't grabbed it from him.
Gui said impatiently: "Hey, don't move your head around. I'm looking out from your ajna chakra."
Hearing this, Zhao Rong kept smiling and turned around to continue staring at the group of Taoist boys in black clothes and blue hats who were lined up in five rows and seven columns, each holding a ritual utensil in their hands. Four of them held incense burners that emitted fireworks.
.
After a while, Gui Gui said very quickly: "Second row from the bottom, third from the left."
Zhao Rong's eyes narrowed.
It was a fat Taoist boy with a chubby face, holding an incense burner with great difficulty in his hand.
This hand incense burner is simple and simple in shape, round in shape, black with purple in color, less than one foot in height and width, in the shape of a tripod with two ears, and a lid on the top. At this time, a round hole is drilled in the top lid.
White smoke came out.
There is nothing magical about it on the surface, and it is inconspicuous among the team. There are many more dazzling rituals in the hands of other Taoist boys.
Zhao Rong asked doubtfully: "This thing is called Tingni Purple Gold Furnace? Are you sure you got it right?"
Gui said firmly: "Although I can't see the inside, its material is Tingni purple gold! And the appearance is exactly the same. My spiritual sense tells me that it is it."
Zhao Rong was a little doubtful, "Is your divine consciousness accurate?"
How do you feel that it is the same thing as a woman’s sixth sense? Is it reliable?
Gui was silent for a while, then took a closer look, and said firmly, "You can't be wrong, I am very familiar with it, because I also had one at the beginning, and then stayed in this world... I don't know if it is the one in front of me.
, Logically speaking, my Tingni Purple Gold Furnace should not appear in Wangquezhou, but with the changes in the sea, who can say for sure..."
Gui's voice gradually became lower and turned into a whisper.
Zhao Rong took a breath now. Is this a treasure that Gui once owned?
He couldn't help but stand on tiptoes, looking across the rows of heads in front of him, towards the tired and panting fat Taoist boy, and then took a closer look at the ordinary-looking hand incense burner.
However, after just a few breaths, Zhao Rong leaned back slightly, returned his heels to the ground, looked away, and looked around calmly, finding that no one was paying attention to him. The crowd's eyes were focused on him just like him.
Enter the procession in the middle of the road.
Gui's voice was excited, "What is the current condition of this Tingni Purple Gold Furnace? I still don't know clearly from a distance, but even if it has been damaged, its material alone is one of the top metal refining materials.
Tingni Purple Gold, the sacred gold that even Taiyi monks covet, is now being held in the hands of a little Taoist boy with no cultivation skills and wandering outside? Zhao Rong, get it quickly!"
Immediately, it sighed with emotion, "I didn't expect that I just woke up and took a casual glance out of your eyebrow chakra to see such a good thing. This ancient Cangzhou is indeed a Taoist high-class blessed place, a hidden blessing of the great road.
I don’t know how many more fate there are.”
After listening to Gui's words, Zhao Rong gradually calmed down. At this moment, facing this great opportunity that seemed so close at hand, he lost the eagerness that had been lingering in his heart just now. He said calmly and continued to follow the team.
But at this time, because they were approaching the city gate in the south of the city, the royal army was about to leave the city, and there were fewer and fewer people watching and following around, so Zhao Rong frowned slightly.
Suddenly, Gui suddenly said: "By the way, do you still remember the sword technique that I passed on to you on the ship?"
Zhao Rong nodded subconsciously, and after realizing that it couldn't see it, he responded: "Remember."
Gui's tone was cheerful, "I and you have said that this nameless sword technique and the "Spring and Autumn Life and Death Art" were both obtained by me from that outside world sect with strange cultivation methods."
"Sacrificial magic weapons are divided into small training, big training, and life training, and this sword formula is only equivalent to a small training method. It can be remembered by me not only because it can be used to practice other magic weapons besides swords, but also
Because it is practiced through the soul power of the divine soul, it does not require the user to possess spiritual energy. Even mortals can use it, but it will consume a lot of energy."
"And the most amazing thing is that it allows the user to practice within a certain range without touching the object, but the premise is that the user is extremely familiar with the object being practiced, just like when you practiced on the ship
Your Wenjian is the same."
"Now the situation is just right. I will now pass on the image of the Tingni Purple Gold Furnace to you. You can try to visualize it in your mind and see if you can communicate it!"
The return speech was very fast and eloquent. After finishing speaking, he recalled the memory of Tingni Purple Gold Furnace in his mind, forming an image and transmitting it to Zhao Rongxin Lake.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Rong began to gather his mind, and with the help of the image of Gui, he began to manifest the Tingni Purple Gold Furnace in his heart.
It contained a lot of information, and was more complicated than the original Wenjian. And only now did Zhao Rong know that there was an extremely important heart in the Tingni Purple Gold Furnace, and the pattern restrictions on the inner wall of the furnace were as numerous as the sea...
However, after this period of physical training, my soul has become stronger. Although it is difficult at this time, it is not a big problem.
At a certain moment, when a huge motorcade was about to pass through the South Gate of Luojing, among the sparse crowd following behind and gradually dispersing, a young scholar carrying a bookcase and wearing a jade sword suddenly stopped, turned around, and turned his back.
Leave.
"how?"
The scholar thought for a moment about the special connection that was established in an instant but was broken due to the distance between the two. He curled his lips and said, "Yes, that's it, the Ting Ni Purple Gold Furnace."
"And...seems to be intact."
"Why don't you chase me?"
"Don't worry, it can't escape." The scholar said lazily.
Zhao Rong returned all the way and found Su Xiaoxiao who was stopped at the same place, looking at her with longing eyes. The little girl was really obedient and didn't ask Zhao Rong why he was there. Zhao Rong didn't throw out the explanation he had thought of.
Then Zhao Rong took her for a walk around the city, bought some snacks, and then left the city through the north gate and returned to the Lin family's manor in Lanxi. The two of them separated and went back to their own courtyards.
Lin Wenruo was not here, so Zhao Rong had a meal at noon and then went out again, but he did not bring a bookcase with him, but only brought some extra money with him.
Zhao Rong returned to the city, found a ready-made clothing store, and bought several sets of clothes in suitable sizes. Although they were not as comfortable as tailor-made clothes in a tailor shop, they were better than buying them now and wearing them now.
Zhao Rong bought some more items, then found an inconspicuous inn near the south of the city, opened a guest room, sent away the waiter, put on a new outfit in the room, looked in the mirror, black
Wearing regular clothes, blue forehead wiping, hairpin and bun, he looked like a man from a well-to-do family in Luojing City. He nodded with satisfaction and went out.
Zhao Rong hired a carriage at the south gate and headed south. At 15 o'clock in the afternoon, he arrived at Taibai Mountain.
Taibai Mountain is extremely high, with green mountains and forests and quiet scenery. There is a Chongxu Temple on it that is known to everyone in Zhongnan Kingdom. It is also the subject of the four hundred and eighty temples in Zhongnan Mountain.
Zhao Rong got out of the car and found that there were many pilgrims at the foot of the mountain at this time. After a little inquiry, he learned about the general situation of Chongxu Temple.
The Chongxu Temple on Taibai Mountain is divided into an exterior and an interior view. The exterior is on the mountainside and is also the main body of the Chongxu Temple. It has the most palaces and statues and is where pilgrims from the mountains go to burn incense and worship. The interior view is built on the top of the mountain and outsiders are not allowed to do so.
Going up.
Within Chongxu Temple, there are core Taoist priests and ordinary Taoist priests. The former are mainly on the inside, but they are also found in some main halls on the outside. They mainly take the lead in chanting sutras and interpreting fortunes for distinguished guests; while the latter are on the outside and are responsible for taking care of daily affairs.
, to receive pilgrims.
The core Taoist priests live in Vipassana; there are a larger number of ordinary Taoist priests who live in the houses at the foot of the mountain. In addition, there are many handymen who do odd jobs in the temple and also live at the foot of the mountain.
Therefore, there are many buildings at the foot of the mountain, and there are many pilgrims during the day, making it lively like a county town.
Zhao Rong straightened his clothes and climbed up the stairs with many pilgrims, paying attention to his surroundings without leaving any trace.
The scenery of Taibai Mountain is extremely secluded, with lush trees, towering ancient trees on both sides of the mountain road, thick shade covering the ground, flying springs like snow, and a refreshing breeze.
When he came to the majestic appearance on the mountainside, as soon as he crossed a certain threshold, he felt something in his heart. He had established a mysterious connection with something. That feeling came from a building on the left.
Zhao Rong had a calm expression and ignored the vague connection. Instead, he walked to a merit box, put some money in, and smiled at the Taoist priest standing beside him. The latter saluted him solemnly and shouted:
Zhao Rong responded respectfully and called "Taoist Master", and asked about some of the rules in the temple, and then started walking around casually.
Slowly, Zhao Rong's footsteps came to the left side of the temple, where several palaces stood. Looking from the outside, there were tall statues of gods and many pilgrims inside.
All of Zhao Rong's attention was attracted by one of the inconspicuous halls, and the vague feeling in his mind pointed there.
Zhao Rong pursed his lips and kept walking calmly. Occasionally he followed the pilgrims around him and entered a certain hall to burn incense and pray for blessings. Occasionally he stopped around a Taoist priest in blue and listened to his sermons with others. Occasionally he walked to a certain wall.
In front of me, I admired the lifelike murals.
Finally, I slowly made my way to the hall where my heart felt.
Looking up, the plaque reads "Lingguan Hall".
Stepping in, what caught his eye was a statue of a god that Zhao Rong didn't recognize. A quick glance revealed that there were seven Taoist priests in the temple. Some were chanting in front of the statue, some were talking to pilgrims in low voices, and some were standing in the corner.
Looking at the crowd, there are four other Taoist boys standing on the left and right.
Zhao Rong took a quick look and stopped looking at it.
Then he offered some incense money, asked a middle-aged Taoist priest in the temple for a talisman, thanked him, then stopped staying and turned around to leave.
However, when Zhao Rong turned around, his eyes lightly glanced at a small incense burner on the edge of the altar table in front of the tall statue in the center of the hall. It was emitting light green smoke and was inconspicuous among the many tribute utensils.
.
Zhao Rong swept past without looking back, left the hall, walked out of the exterior, strode down the mountain, found a carriage, and left slowly.
Inside the carriage.
Zhao Rong closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Gui Qingqing asked: "Hey, Zhao Rong, the Tingni Purple Gold Furnace is right there, how can we steal it?"
Zhao Rong still closed his eyes and twitched the corner of his mouth, "Stealing? Isn't this bad?"
Gui suddenly realized, "I almost forgot, Mr. Zhao is a scholar, how could he do such an insulting and uncultivated thing! It's my thoughts that are despicable and dirty. Mr. Zhao, please don't listen to me. Alas,
It's just a pity that the divine furnace, you know, the magic medicine that can make someone completely reborn and change their life can only be made with a furnace of this level. Oh, it's a pity."
Zhao Rong opened his eyes and opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, he was interrupted. Gui sneered and said jokingly: "I know, you want to say, 'Can the things done by scholars be considered stealing?' That's right."
No, what’s that called, plagiarism? Oh no!”
I sneered, I hated these hypocritical Confucian scholars the most.
The young Confucian scholar was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a calm tone: "Who said you have to steal secretly? Can't you just steal it openly in front of them?"
