Chapter 117: I am a fish in the river, and I enter the painting road
Meng Xiao is from the Meng family.
Moreover, he is the legitimate son of the Meng family, and his father is Meng Liang, Lord of Wuping.
With such a status, it is naturally impossible for him to stay in Jixia Academy for a long time. His future lies in the military.
Gargamel and Luo Yu both saw with their own eyes Bai Mei blocking Jiang Yu'er from entering Jixia, and just now... Bai Mei jumped off the mountain of books.
So, how could Meng Xiao come here just to "watch a show"?
"You don't need to know this question." Meng Xiao glanced at Gargamel.
"Really? Let me take a guess." Gargamel raised his lips: "Is it because Wu Pingjun hasn't made up his mind yet? Bai Mei got a death order, but you got a chance to turn around?"
"The Grand Master never cares about government affairs!" Meng Xiao's eyes became a little sharp.
"Haha, don't be angry." Gargamel laughed: "Or is it another reason, you are not actually here for Jiang Yu'er?"
"What you said is a bit too much!" Meng Xiao looked upward.
"Or, both?"
"boom!"
There was a loud noise.
Gargamel retreated.
Meng Xiao's body was full of murderous aura.
But Luo Yu laughed: "Let's fight, let's fight, Meng Qilang, if I were you I would definitely not tolerate him."
Gargamel immediately waved his hand: "Don't be so impulsive, Qilang Mengjia, don't you want to know what the purpose of my coming here is?"
"What is it?" Meng Xiao restrained his murderous intent.
"Of course it's the same as you!"
"If you don't get out, I'll kill you, believe it or not?"
"Hahaha, I'm going to get out, I'm just going to get out." Gargamel said, and walked up: "I'm going to get out, but don't follow me."
"..." Meng Xiao's fists clenched again.
Gargamel immediately quickened his pace, puffing out smoke from his butt.
Han Huo and Song Yuanping, who were standing not far behind, looked at each other, with a...stupid look in their eyes.
…
Book Mountain, sixth floor.
Jiang Chaoge saw a woman.
This is a woman with extremely elegant manners, wearing a plain long skirt, with long flowing hair hanging around her waist, and a wooden hairpin tied on top of it.
Her eyes are very clear, as if there is spirituality in them, while her eyebrows are extremely long and slender, and her lips are red, as if she had stepped out of a painting.
Of course, there are already some wrinkles at the corners of the woman's eyes, indicating that she is over forty years old, but she is even more charming and elegant.
"My name is Lan Xiangling." The woman looked at Jiang Chaoge.
"Student, I have met Mr. Lan." Jiang Chaoge saluted in a very knowledgeable manner.
"I heard that you often went to Cuiwei Tower when you were in Huai'an County. Why didn't you call me sister?" Lan Xiangling asked doubtfully.
"Mr. Lan probably doesn't like the title of sister, right?"
"It's interesting." Lan Xiangling smiled lightly: "I just don't know. Do you know the fragrance?"
"It seems that this round is a good test?" Jiang Chaoge suddenly realized.
"That's right." Lan Xiangling carefully took out a piece of fragrant wood and placed it on the table.
Jiang Chaoge walked closer and took a gentle sniff.
"How?" Lan Xiangling asked again.
Jiang Chaoge then replied: "Be grateful to the ghosts and gods, purify the mind and body, eliminate impurities, sleep well, make friends in silence, take a break in the world, be tired of many, be satisfied with few, be immortal for a long time, use without hindrance."
There was finally a hint of surprise in Lan Xiangling's eyes: "You actually really understand?"
"Why can't you understand?" Jiang Chaoge asked.
"In that case, you can make a 'Lingxu Incense'." Lan Xiangling said no more.
She waved her sleeves gently on the table in front of her, and plates of various ingredients appeared evenly on the table like divided medicinal ingredients.
Jiang Chaoge nodded and sat at the table.
Fragrance should not only be fragrant and nourish the nose, but also nourish the mind and health, and enlighten the mind. This is the core principle of making incense.
Lingxuxiang is not a particularly difficult test question.
However, not difficult does not mean that it is easy to pass, because if there is a problem with the amount of ingredients used, there will be a difference in taste.
This level tests the ‘proportional’ allocation.
Jiang Chaoge found the formula for Lingxu Incense in Ying Wunan's memory. The main ingredients are cloves, Lingxiang, Jiangzhen, Lingshui...
As for the art of incense, Ying Wunan has studied it deeply. After all, incense is commonly used by nobles, and since he stays in the house all year round, he will naturally prepare it.
"Then I'll start." After Jiang Chaoge finished speaking, he started directly.
Lan Xiangling sat and watched.
What she saw was Jiang Chaoge's method of making incense and every step.
Time passed quickly.
A quarter of an hour later.
The Lingxu incense has been made.
Jiang Chaoge then placed the Lingxu incense in the copper cauldron and lit it carefully.
A faint mist of smoke rises.
Lan Xiangling leaned forward slightly, closed her smart eyes, and smelled it carefully.
Soon, her eyes opened again: "Why is this happening? How did you do it?"
This question was a bit mindless, but Jiang Chaoge understood it and answered directly: "This is a mountain, and there is a cool autumn breeze, so I slightly increased the proportion of cloves so that the aroma can be more concentrated.
If it takes a long time, it will be too strong if lit indoors, but it is perfect for use here!"
"It's a good deal...yes, it's a good deal indeed!" Lan Xiangling nodded heavily.
"Has the student passed?"
"Haha, the fragrance is good and the person is even better. Congratulations to Jiang Jieyuan."
"Thank you, Mr. Lan."
Jiang Chaoge nodded and continued walking upward.
…
"He passed again!"
"Jiang Yu'er passed the sixth floor and is heading to the seventh floor!"
"It's amazing. I heard that only three great scholars have climbed to the seventh level. He actually did it? He has not passed the general examination and is not a Jinshi!"
In the distance, the crowd who saw this scene was in commotion.
The three great scholars who were fighting fiercely under the observation deck also stopped moving.
"Sister Lan, you actually let him pass?!" Gu Miaobi's eyes were full of surprise: "She is the most rigorous person, do you dare to believe it?"
"Believe it or not, he went up, didn't he?" Lin Quping replied.
Fang Xiaojing waved his hand at this time: "Okay, let's not fight... Since he has climbed to the seventh floor, he is naturally not something we can snatch away."
"..." Gu Miaobi and Lin Quping both fell silent.
Yes, now on the seventh floor.
How can they fight again?
…
Jiang Chenshui is currently on the fifth floor.
His eyes were looking up at the man in white who was almost invisible.
Below him, Kong Xilai was playing the piano, but the music was a little messy.
"Kong Xilai was upset, but my heart is still calm!"
Jiang Chenshui gritted his teeth and continued upward.
…
The seventh floor.
Jiang Chaoge saw a woman again.
Compared with Lan Xiangling, this woman is much more delicate.
Wearing a light yellow floral dress, she sat among a field of blooming chrysanthemums, as if she perfectly blended in with the surrounding golden surroundings.
Moreover, this woman's skin is extremely well maintained. Although her body bears some vicissitudes of time, her age is only in her early thirties.
Especially her figure, it seems like she can squeeze out water.
"My name is Hua Qingshui, and I am a gardener." The woman introduced herself to Jiang Chaoge with a smile.
"No, you are not a gardener." Jiang Chaoge shook his head.
"Oh? Then what am I?"
"You are a fairy in the sky who fell into the flowers of the mortal world. You can be called the fairy among the flowers."
"Haha, your mouth is really sweet." Hua Qingshui's smile became brighter and brighter: "However, it's useless to have a sweet mouth. You have to break my Hundred Flowers Formation to get up."
"You want to break the formation?" Jiang Chaoge was a little surprised: "Isn't it enough to just arrange flowers?"
"It's both flower arrangement and formation breaking. Jiang Jieyuan, please do it!"
"good!"
Jiang Chaoge nodded.
Hua Qingshui has given clear instructions. To break through the Hundred Flowers Formation, you must use the skill of flower arrangement. Simply put, you can break the formation by arranging flowers.
Since this is the case, it is naturally impossible for him to forcefully break the formation.
He slowly retreated to the edge of the sea of flowers.
His eyes swept over each flower, and he looked at them for a full quarter of an hour before he started taking formal actions.
He moved the first flower pot.
Hua Qingshui shook his head and said with a smile: "Is Jiang Jieyuan planning to start from the west? This is wrong. Flowers all bloom in the morning sun. You should start from the east."
"But, the sun is about to set." Jiang Chaoge pointed to the sky reflecting the glow.
Just as he said.
At this time, the sky was dyed red.
The afterglow of the setting sun reflects on Shushan, as if it is covered with a red cloud.
When Hua Qingshui heard this, the corner of her mouth raised again, and she silently took a step back, revealing a four-season flower apple hidden behind her: "So, will Jiang Jieyuan look at this plant again?"
"Four Seasons Begonia likes shade and is afraid of the sun, so naturally it needs to be covered." Jiang Chaoge took a step forward and stood directly at Hua Qingshui's original position.
The distance between the two is only one step.
Hua Qingshui smiled again and said, "Jiang Jieyuan seems to really understand flowers? But, do you understand women?"
As he finished speaking, a palm was already slapped towards Jiang Chaoge.
Jiang Chaoge didn't expect Hua Qingshui to take action against him, so he almost subconsciously greeted him with a palm.
"Bang!"
The two palms strike each other.
Hua Qingshui quickly retreated, kicking her feet in the sea of flowers, and kicked several pots of golden chrysanthemums to move a few steps.
Jiang Chaoge was stunned.
This kick... the Hundred Flowers Formation was immediately disrupted by the kick?
"Don't be like this, the fairy in the flower must be merciful and merciful." Jiang Chaoge was a little helpless.
"It seems you still don't know what these seven floors represent, right? Otherwise, guess why Fang Daru and Gu Daru couldn't pass the seventh floor back then?" Hua Qingshui smiled in the distance.
Looking at Jiang Chaoge.
"Because the flowers can move?"
"That's right!" Hua Qingshui nodded.
Jiang Chaoge thought for a while and came up with some guesses: "So, this level not only involves flower arrangement, but also beating people?"
"You are very smart. When Fang Daru went to Shushan, he was also a bachelor of the four realms like you. As for the person who stopped him... he was my mentor."
"What state was your mentor in?"
"Four Realms."
"And you?"
"It's also the four realms!"
Four realms against four realms? It doesn’t sound like it’s too difficult?
Wait, that’s not right!
Luo Yu once told me that the examiners guarding the first level are from the Five Realms... Why is the seventh level instead of the Four Realms?
Jiang Chaoge suddenly thought of a question: "Am I going to be eliminated if I accidentally kick over a pot of flowers when I'm fighting with you?"
"Have you noticed all this? You are really smart. Fang Daru didn't realize this so quickly back then."
"It seems that this level is indeed difficult."
"So, do you want to give up?"
"No, I want to try."
"Courage is commendable, but courage alone is not enough. Although I am from the same four realms as you, there are actually some differences between you and me."
"for example?"
"For example: I am not called the Great Scholar of the Four Realms, but the Immortal of the Four Realms and Hundreds of Flowers!"
"Flower Immortal in Four Realms...what do you mean?"
"It means that my 'domain' is based on flowers. As long as you are in my Hundred Flowers Array, you will naturally have some hallucinations. The longer you stay in the array, the less clear you can see what flowers are around you.
?" Hua Qingshui replied with a smile.
"Thanks for reminding me, I'm coming!"
"bring it on."
"Buzz!"
A circle of ink, with Jiang Chaoge as the center, ripples out.
It was obvious that Hua Qingshui was deliberately releasing water.
Although there was a possibility of delaying time, in fact, there was no need for Hua Qingshui to explain so much to him.
He even told him that the Hundred Flowers Array can cause hallucinations.
"It seems that in the previous few levels, my personality charm has conquered Hua Qingshui. She doesn't want me to lose, at least she doesn't want me to lose because I don't understand the 'rules'."
Since that's the case...
Of course, Jiang Chaoge couldn't disappoint Hua Qingshui, he directly used the ink domain realm to deal with the Hundred Flowers Formation.
"Just fighting is not enough, you also have to remember to arrange flowers!" Hua Qingshui reminded again: "Only by inserting the flowers into the correct position can the Hundred Flowers Formation be broken."
"Yeah, I'll do it!" Jiang Chaoge nodded.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"excuse me!"
Jiang Chaoge walked on the ink.
He uses ink to move the flower pots in the Array of Flowers.
At the same time, the man rushed straight towards Hua Qingshui, holding his claws in his right hand, like an evil tiger pouncing on food.
Hua Qingshui kicked a flower pot directly towards Jiang Chaoge: "Don't break it!"
"Won't!"
Jiang Chaoge used ink to roll up the flowerpot.
People keep moving forward.
Hua Qingshui smiled and started to swim around, constantly scurrying back and forth in the Hundred Flowers Array, as if he wanted to rely on the illusion of the Hundred Flowers Array to delay some time.
Jiang Chaoge naturally kept approaching Hua Qingshui, but Hua Qingshui had no intention of confronting him head-on. He just dodged blindly and ran through the Hundred Flowers Formation.
He moved the flower pots with ink, but the clear water flowed and disrupted the flower pots.
"Won't you fight me head-on? That won't work. I have to find a way to resolve the battle quickly."
Jiang Chaoge's heartfelt thoughts passed through his heart.
He will not be affected by illusions, because illusion attacks have no effect on him, but he cannot waste too much time in this level.
Otherwise, he may be exposed.
However, the problem now is that Hua Qingshui in the Hundred Flowers Array is too slippery. How to control her without damaging the flowerpot?
"It would be great if I could use the power of the Great Puppet Master. I could just put her in a big black box and everything would be over. It's a pity that I can't use it."
It is really too difficult to overcome this level by relying solely on the ability of a Confucian scholar.
However, I can't use the abilities of other companies openly? In this way, I can only be held back and wasted here...
What should we do?
While Jiang Chaoge was thinking, his movements didn't stop for a moment.
The two of them started playing cat and mouse in the array of flowers.
Time passed quickly for another two quarters of an hour.
The sun has gradually set and the sky has become a little dark.
Jiang Chaoge finally felt anxious in his heart.
"This won't work, it's wrong... This level cannot be broken like this. We cannot rely on brute force, we must find a way... Since there is such a level on Book Mountain, there must be a way to break it."
"Calm down, I need to calm down!"
Jiang Chaoge quickly recalled every word of Hua Qingshui in his mind. He had a vague feeling that there should be some other meaning in Hua Qingshui's words.
"She reminded me not to destroy the flowerpots, and also reminded me to arrange flowers. Especially, she specifically told me her 'profession'. She is different from me...she is not a bachelor, her name is Baihuaxian!"
"Wait, the Hundred Flower Fairy?! The Four Realms Hundred Flower Fairy!!!"
"The four realms of hundred-flower immortals are the key point!"
"I see!"
Jiang Chaoge stopped abruptly.
Hua Qingshui saw Jiang Chaoge stop, and there was a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Eh? Why don't you chase me? Did you give up so soon?"
"No, I just want to say thank you." Jiang Chaoge shook his head.
"Thank me? What are you saying thank you for?" Hua Qingshui looked confused.
"Thank you for telling me that the Four Realms are not only called Grand Scholars, they can also be called Hundred Flower Immortals!"
"Oh? So what?"
"Since there can be hundreds of flower immortals in the four realms of Confucianism, there should be others, right?" Jiang Chaoge said.
"Hehehe, so what? What do you want?"
"I can't become the Hundred Flower Fairy, but I can become something else, such as...a painter?"
"A painter? So, how do you become a painter?"
"This is how you become a painter!"
Jiang Chaoge directly drew in the void with one hand.
The ink that was originally floating in the air gathered towards his hand as if it had received some kind of inspiration.
And then, as his hands continued to fly in the air, the ink became more and more condensed, and gradually took on some shapes.
Ink painting.
Each "ink figure" condensed by ink and wash was drawn.
These ink figures are not big, only the size of a flower pot. They all hold spears in their hands and stand in the flower array. Their number is exactly the same as the number of flower pots.
Hua Qingshui's eyes suddenly widened, and her face was full of disbelief: "You became a painter just like this? Don't you need to... prepare any more?"
"Why do I need to prepare?" Jiang Chaoge raised his lips slightly: "Actually, if I have a guqin in my hand, I can become a luther player."
"Hahaha, well said, very well said!" Hua Qingshui laughed fiercely: "Fang Daru, did you see it? What you didn't do back then, someone did it! He, Jiang Yu'er,
Use the four realms to enter the painting path!!!"
