Yuan Chaoxi walked out of the bamboo forest dejectedly, saluted Yuan Jinsheng and then stuck out his tongue playfully.
Just now, she tiptoed to the bamboo forest, hiding behind a thick bamboo, peering into the pavilion, but she never expected to be discovered by her father.
Yuan Jinsheng looked at his daughter seriously, but the kindness in his eyes betrayed his mood at the moment: "Xi'er, are you here for something?"
Yuan Chaoxi laughed and said: "Dad, my daughter misses you, doesn't she? Come and see you."
"Don't talk too much." After saying that, Yuan Jinsheng pointed at Baili Ming and said, "This is Baili Ming. Your classmates must have seen it before."
Bai Liming hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Fellow Taoist Yuan, you are polite."
After Yuan Chaoxi returned the gift with a perfunctory Dao Jue, he asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why are you here?"
Just as Bai Liming was about to reply, Yuan Jinsheng interrupted: "I have something to ask him, so you don't have to ask questions."
Yuan Chaoxi gave a coquettish "hum" and stood aside arrogantly, no longer paying attention to Bai Liming.
Yuan Jinsheng shook his head helplessly when he saw this. This daughter lost her mother in her early years, and she was responsible for many affairs of the Taoist sect. She could not accompany her all the time. She felt that she was indebted, so she couldn't bear to discipline her severely. Over time, she developed the behavior of some eldest ladies.
temper.
Yuan Jinsheng let it go and did not criticize his daughter harshly. Then he took out a jade bottle and handed it to Baili Ming: "Looking at your current cultivation level, your foundation is quite solid. However, in addition to absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, you have to exercise the Yi Jing, cut off the hair and cleanse the marrow.
Only when yin and yang embrace each other can the golden elixir be condensed. Take this bottle of marrow-cleansing elixir and refine it together with the yuan-pei-yuan elixir when you return. I think it won't be long before you can open your seven orifices and enter the Qi refining stage."
Bai Liming took the jade bottle and thanked him, while Yuan Chaoxi snorted coldly, showing disdain.
Seeing this, Yuan Jinsheng coughed dryly: "It's getting late, Xi'er, you can take Baili Ming back to Longmen Island with you."
After the two left, Zhu Changyou appeared quietly, bowed and saluted: "Master, was this disciple discovered by the Baili family last night?"
Yuan Jinsheng said: "Last night I sensed a weak spiritual energy fluctuation nearby, but I'm not sure if it was caused by Bai Liping. If it is true, this child can control spiritual seeds so easily, which is a gift from heaven.
"
"Don't worry, the groundwork has been laid just now, which should dispel their doubts. However, even if they are discovered, the Baili family will not have anything to worry about. The key lies within the Taoist sect. They must act more cautiously in the future."
…
The calm Kaiyang Lake is as green as a piece of flawless emerald. A small boat paddles gently across the lake, leaving only ripples rippling slightly.
On the boat, Yuan Chaoxi stood on the bow, with his back to Baili Ming and his eyes looking into the distance. The two of them were silent and silent all the way.
The girl suddenly broke the calm and asked slightly sarcastically: "How did you get attached to my father?"
Bai Liming showed a wry smile, but still told the previous experience exactly as it was. Yuan Chaoxi's expression softened, knowing that he had misunderstood the other party. He thought he was a follower, but he had no idea that he had other hidden agendas, but because of the
He saved face, but he didn't say anything apologetic.
Bai Liming deliberately wanted to talk, but when he saw the girl's indifferent expression, he gave up the idea and decided not to bring trouble on himself.
The boat speeds up slowly. Under the oncoming breeze, the girl is wearing a light green long gown with fluttering sleeves, making her look even more elegant and refined. The whole person is shining even more under the sunlight, as if filled with fairy spirit.
, calm and composed, like a fairy who descends from heaven without eating the fireworks of the world.
Baili Ming couldn't help but froze, but soon realized something was wrong and hurriedly turned his eyes away and looked to the side.
One of the two stood at the bow and the other at the stern, silently all the way.
One after another, they returned to the teaching building. As soon as Yuan Chaoxi stepped in, she saw everyone staring at her with a look of disbelief, and she was very confused.
Bian Zhangji stepped forward and whispered a few words to her. Yuan Chaoxi then remembered the "Peiyuan Dan Exchange Meeting". However, due to the delay in things just now, the class time was about to come, so she had to ask Bian Zhangji to come forward and make an announcement.
"Swapping party" has been rescheduled for tomorrow.
Everyone was a little disappointed, but they had no choice but to listen to the class absentmindedly.
During the break between classes, Bailiming saw Tan Zhenzhen admiring flowers alone in the courtyard, so he came closer, exchanged a few words in the name of returning the book, and whispered: "Miss Tan, I have something to discuss with you. After the evening class
How about meeting by the woods behind the square?"
Tan Zhenzhen was a little surprised. He didn't know what Bai Liming wanted to ask him, but he also knew that there were many people in the courtyard and it was not convenient to say anything too personal, so he nodded and agreed.
What the two of them didn't know was that all their conversations fell into the ears of Yuan Chaoxi, who was leaning on his forehead with his hands in the teaching building and looking bored.
"Opening the seven orifices" is the first step towards the condensation of the golden elixir. If the seven orifices are opened, the five senses will be far superior to ordinary people. Yuan Chaoxi has excellent qualifications, and with the help of various elixirs, he has opened the seven orifices last month. Just now he accidentally
Seeing Bai Liming and Tan Zhenzhen talking, I was a little curious, so I used my senses to hear the conversation between the two.
"A man and a widow are dating in private. Huh, my father has made mistakes sometimes. This Baili Ming is nothing more than a disciple." Yuan Chaoxi thought angrily, and made up his mind to secretly take a look at these two people later.
What kind of dirty things do people do?
…
After evening classes, the cool evening wind blew through the grove, and the leaves made a rustling sound, as if someone was whispering. And someone happened to be whispering here at this moment.
Bai Liming and Tan Zhenzhen stood facing each other. Tan Zhenzhen combed his hair and asked in a low voice: "Brother Ming, I don't know what we have to discuss."
Bailiming coughed a few times and said a little at a loss: "Zhenzhen, I don't have anything big to do. Even if my father brought me some pills yesterday, I can't use so many, so I just thought... I'll give you a bottle."
, with no other intention.”
As he spoke, he took out a jade bottle and handed it to the other party, but he was very worried in his heart. This time he made the decision to give the elixir after much thought, because he was worried that the other party would think that he was a fool. If he was rejected, wouldn't he even have no friends?
The law is done.
Fortunately, Tan Zhenzhen did not refuse, but happily accepted the elixir. As if aware of Bai Liming's concerns, he said warmly: "Brother Ming, you can regard me as a friend, I am extremely happy. This
I don’t have many close friends among my classmates, but Brother Ming is so protective of me, and this time he thought of giving me pills, I really don’t know how to be grateful."
When Bai Liming heard this, the stone in his heart fell: "Zhenzhen, don't say any words of gratitude. Friends should help each other."
The two chatted for a while about their respective cultivation experiences, and seeing that it was getting late, they left one after another.
On the other side of the woods, Yuan Zhaoxi watched Bailiming and Tan Zhenzhen leave one after another with a cold face. Because they were too far away and the sound of rustling leaves in the wind was disturbed, he didn't hear it very clearly, but he saw Bailiming.
He gave a jade bottle of elixir to the other party.
She couldn't help but get angry: "Humph, this scoundrel actually used the pills given to him by his father to please a woman. He is really despicable and shameless. He is a villain. No, we must find a way to punish him."
…
The night is as quiet as water, but there are ripples everywhere in Kaiyang Palace.
In a courtyard of Yuan Mansion, Yuan Chaoxi looked at the few people who had been silent for a long time, a little irritated, and said impatiently: "You have to think about such a small matter for a long time? Do you have an idea?"
At this time, one of the twin brothers, Zhao Chengwu, said: "It's not that troublesome, let's just beat him up." His elder brother, Zhao Chengwen, also nodded in agreement.
The side chief rolled his eyes, shook his head and said: "No, no, private fighting is strictly prohibited in the Taoist sect. I have a way that will not kill anyone, but also make him suffer." He lowered his voice before Yuan.
Whispering in my ears day and night.
After a while, Yuan Chaoxi slapped the table with satisfaction and said: "It's insidious enough. As expected of him, he has a lot of clever ideas. Let's do it like this."
…
In the study not far away, Yuan Jinsheng was also having a secret conversation. On the table, the cloaked shadow in the bronze mirror said in a hoarse voice: "Zhu Changyou was too careless this time. Please arrange other people's matters in Xijing first.
Let’s wait until he recovers.”
Yuan Jinsheng nodded: "That's all, Patriarch, there's one more thing. Bai Liping seems to have more and more control over the spiritual species. I'm worried that I won't be able to control him by then, which will affect the smooth progress of the plan."
The shadow pondered for a moment and said: "You can give Bailiming some advice and let Bailiming's soul blend with the spiritual seed. As the second plan, the Taoist sect has begun to notice you. You need to be careful in everything you do in the future. It is uncontrollable."
The more things happen, the greater the variables will be in the implementation of future plans. The plan must be accelerated, and the net must be closed within three years at most. Those chess pieces need to be matured as soon as possible, so that they can be picked at will."
Yuan Jinsheng whispered: "Yes."
…
In the Kaiyang Xingjun Hall, a man was sitting on a high seat. The man was thin, with a slender neck and a slender face. Against the backdrop of the wide Taoist robe, he looked like an awl protruding from rags. His slender eyes were also like shining eyes.
The tip of the cone with the cold light usually makes people dare not look directly at it. This person is Sheng Yang, Lord of Kaiyang Star.
Li Yitang, the leader of the Five Elements Hall, was reporting something to him with a respectful expression.
After listening to Li Yitang's words, Sheng Yang pondered for a moment and said: "My senior brother has always been resentful that my master passed down the position of Star Lord to me. He seemed to be stable in the past few years, but Wen Wen disappeared in Beihuang a few years ago.
This time, Jiuyin's madness always has his shadow. I always feel like he is plotting something, Mr. Li, you can't let down your guard."
Li Yitang nodded in agreement.
"In addition to my senior brother, we also need to monitor the people around him, especially Zhu Changyou. Of course, we have to be more concealed so that he doesn't get caught." Sheng Yang ordered solemnly.
Li Yitang nodded yes again.
…
At this moment, Longmen Island is quiet and peaceful.
Bai Liming fell into a contented sleep in this quiet night, but what he didn't know was that the peaceful time would be broken.
Just like Kaiyang Lake, there is already an undercurrent surging under the seemingly calm lake surface.
