Wang Li and others stood at the pier and bowed again. When they turned around, two young men in gray robes had already walked in front of them.
A young man with a baby face glanced at the three of them and glanced at the jade token in Wang Li's hand. A look of shock immediately appeared on his face. The other young man's eyes also jumped. Compared with his companions, he was older and slightly older.
The old man raised his hands and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that three distinguished guests came to Qianyuan City today. My two brothers are responsible for the stewards of this month's wharf to welcome the family members of the immortals and guests in the palace. We can meet the needs of the distinguished guests.
Give orders to my two brothers."
The expressions of these two people were noticed by Wang Li. He touched the jade plaque in his hand and found that there was the character Yuan on the front. When he turned it over, it turned out that the character Du was written on the back.
After thinking about it, he returned the salute and said, "Can you please lead us into the city first, and introduce us to the situation in the city on the way?"
"Dignified guests must not do this! How can the two of us afford the gift of honored guests!"
The two of them looked at Wang Li saluting them, and were so frightened that they hurriedly stood aside and bowed to show the way, "Dear guests, please move into the city!"
Half an hour later, Wang Li and his party moved into a manor called Lanxinyuan. It covers an area of more than two hundred acres and has a vast space with more than fifty houses, lotus ponds, pavilions, corridors, and study rooms.
Not only does the tea shop have everything you need, it also has a spirit-turning formation. Ordinary people living in the village can live longer. The outside of the village is paved with bluestones. When you turn a side bend, there is a three-foot-wide stone bridge.
, across it is Fangshi.
There are many people, cars, horses and people passing by on the stone bridge, which is quite lively.
Wang Li and three others were standing at the door talking to the two stewards who led them into the city. Each of the three men held a brocade box and handed it to the two stewards. However, the two stewards refused repeatedly and refused to accept it.
After a while, he said goodbye and disappeared into the crowd. He walked towards the stone bridge and soon disappeared.
"Cousin, what's going on? We got such a big manor without spending a penny. Didn't my uncle tell us that we must prepare personnel? Now we haven't sent out the personnel yet!"
Wu Yu held the brocade box and asked Qin Hong, with confusion on her face, "Could it be that my uncle has been away for too long and the sect's rules have changed?"
"no!"
Qin Hong shook his head seriously, looked at Wang Li, and said, "It should have something to do with the jade pendant that Master Zhang gave to Brother Li, but I feel a little uneasy about getting a large and exquisite manor for nothing."
Wang Li answered the conversation on the side: "Teacher said that this is a city built by Yuandu, Qianming, and Guanghan Palace to settle the monks' families, so there should be no problem."
"But it's obvious that they have some intentions behind this show of kindness. We can make inquiries in the city later. If there are no results, we can go up the mountain to ask the teacher."
After saying that, he looked at the lid of the brocade box, and there were two red-colored name cards on it. He thought that since entering the city, the two stewards had told everything they knew about the situation in Qianyuan City.
Carefully.
What shocked Wang Li and others was that they were no longer in the northwest Zhuzhou, but in the southeastern China.
After looking at the manor, before they could say anything, the older young steward waved his hand and said that this was his own villa and he was very attached to the three brothers. He made the decision on the spot and donated the manor to them.
Wang Li reached out and put away the two name cards, nodded and said: "Zeng Yi, Zeng Yu, no matter what they have in mind, I have kept their names in my heart."
~~~~~~~~
In a secluded attic, the two stewards who had led Wang Li and the others into the city were sitting at a tea table near the window, drinking tea.
After the store put several plates of pastries on the table, the baby-faced young man frowned, stood up and shouted: "Brother, why are you willing to give Lan Xinyuan away like that!"
"Hehehe~"
The older young man smiled and did not answer his question. He stretched out his hand to pick up the tea and put it on the tip of his nose. He said slowly, "Third brother, you should recognize that jade plaque."
"Why don't I recognize it? It's the spell card of the deputy master of Yuandu Palace. The real person on the boat must be one of the deputy masters of Yuandu Palace."
The baby-faced man nodded and said with a look of longing on his face. As soon as he finished speaking, his expression immediately showed dissatisfaction. He sat down and said, "But those three boys have obviously not been registered yet, and they don't have any magic power.
Zhenyuan, my induction magic weapon will not be fake, what if they don’t go up the mountain and have no immortal fate!”
"That is one of the manors that our brothers carefully arranged to entertain the cyclists on the mountain, but brother, you... alas!"
The older young man glanced at him and said, "I heard Mr. Wang call the real teacher on the boat."
"What!"
The baby-faced expression was startled, and Huoran stood up again and asked urgently: "Brother, can you hear me clearly?"
"Of course I heard you clearly."
The older young man took a sip of tea and smiled calmly, "And I also heard the real man telling Mr. Wang that his master was playing chess in Yuandu Palace."
"In the sect, there are registered masters and disciples and true disciples. Registered disciples can call a deputy head master a teacher, but they can be recognized as disciples by a deputy head master personally on behalf of their teachers. Only true disciples can
Disciples have this qualification."
"And third brother, as you just said, they don't have any magic power on them, and they obviously haven't gone up to the mountain to register."
Baby Face swallowed, his voice was a little hoarse, and he trembled: "How is this possible!"
The older young man put down his teacup, stared at him and asked, "Do you still blame me for sending Zhuangzi away?"
"Haha! Good gift!"
The baby-faced boy laughed loudly, picked up the tea cup at hand and drank it all in one gulp. The next moment, his expression changed, he covered his throat and rolled on the table.
"Hot, hot, hot! So hot!"
The older young man twitched the corner of his mouth, picked up the tea cup and looked sideways out of the window. Following his line of sight, he saw that it was in the direction of Lanxinyuan.
~~~~~~~~
Night comes soon.
During the day, Wang Li and Wu Yu each accompanied their mothers around the village several times, and discovered that the manor not only had wine cellars, granaries, vegetable fields, but also livestock farms and orchards, etc.
Especially since there was enough food in the granary for many years, they saved a lot of money.
Qin Hong took the guards who followed him to Fang City to familiarize themselves with the situation, mainly because he wanted to inquire about the two stewards. When he came back, he said that the two people were from the Zeng clan in Qianyuan City, and they were very popular here.
It was a delicious meal, and the reputation was quite good. Many monks who came down from the mountain to the city often named their brothers to entertain them.
After hearing the news, everyone reluctantly gave up their doubts and discussed for a while to no avail. After dinner, everyone went back to their respective houses.
At this time, Wang Lizuan was sitting in a quiet room, carefully pondering the three Taoist methods taught by his teacher several times. He closed his eyes and went into silence, and moved his energy and qi according to the previous body-building exercises, and soon there was a red light on his face.
looming.
About half an hour later, he opened his eyes, and the cyclone in his body that had been building the foundation and forging the body could no longer grow stronger.
Previously, he found signs of a stronger cyclone as he continued to practice. On the way to Dengxian Temple, he practiced for a while. Five days later, the cyclone had indeed grown stronger again, but that was the end of it.
With a little exercise, the cyclone in his body began to rotate rapidly, and Wang Li could clearly feel the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathering over him. It was completely different from when he was in the village.
With his eyes fixed, Wang Li emptied the spiritual platform, closed his eyes again, and immediately moved his energy and energy according to the Nine Turns of Returning Dan method.
The first stage of spiritual practice is to introduce qi. This stage is divided into six stages, namely: taking qi into the body, having spiritual consciousness and knowledge, conducting inner contemplation, reborn, wandering the mind and controlling qi, and nourishing the body.
.
As soon as the spell is activated, the cyclone in the body immediately separates a stream of qi energy and circulates along the pulse. Different from the previous body-building exercise, this time each stream of qi energy separated from the cyclone leaves a trace after passing through the acupuncture points in the body.
A seed of Qi Jin, and after circulating throughout the body for a whole day, it is connected with each Qi Jin seed with air currents like a spider spinning a web, and the source of the big web is that cyclone.
The moment this big net was completely formed, Wang Li felt an itch all over his body, and then the spiritual energy of heaven and earth entrenched outside his body seemed to have eyes, drilling into his body along the acupoints where each Qi Jin seed was located,
The qi energy in the meridians quickly and orderly flows to his Dantian, just like a stream flowing into the sea.
As soon as these spiritual energy entered the body, Wang Li found that the energy seeds disappeared, and the network-like energy remaining in the meridians of the whole body was swallowed up and assimilated by the spiritual energy flowing towards the Dantian, turning into another large network of spiritual energy.
, after the big net in the heart is firmly woven, the cyclone in the body has been completely wrapped by spiritual energy, turning into a sea of mist, churning in the Dantian.
Wang Li felt an indescribable feeling of comfort all over his body. At this moment, he had officially completed the first stage of the Qi-entraining period and absorbed Qi into his body.
According to the guidance of the magic method, he used his power to touch the sea of fog, and a completely different feeling of energy flowed into his meridians instantly, at an incredible speed.
"Is this true magic power?"
Wang Li smiled and found that the network formed by the spiritual energy became more and more stable after the true energy was circulated. His expression condensed and he continued to draw the spiritual energy according to the method.
Early the next morning.
Amber Cat jumped down from the eaves, walked through several corridors, stood up and stood at the door of Wang Li's quiet room.
"Meow~"
"Shut up!"
As soon as it barked, it heard a curse coming from inside the house. It was so frightened that it jumped out towards the pebbles in the garden outside the corridor. As soon as it stood firm, the door opened.
Wang Li strode out, saw Hu Hu, squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't be afraid, I didn't tell you to shut up just now."
"Meow~"
Amber yelled, tilted her head and stared at Wang Li, raised a paw and pointed in a certain direction.
"Mom asked me to eat, right?"
Wang Li smiled and nodded, but the next moment he frowned and shouted: "Shut up!"
Amber was stunned, glanced at Wang Li, and quickly disappeared into the garden.
Wang Li looked helpless and said, "Can you please stop screaming? I just stepped into the third level of Qi Entrainment last night, and I almost went crazy without being yelled at by you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and his mind sank into a certain fire
