Yao Pei's courtyard is different from Qi Xuansu's courtyard. According to unwritten rules, this courtyard will only be reserved for the best disciples, otherwise it would rather be empty. Therefore, many important figures who influenced the direction of the Taoist sect have lived here, and the predecessors did not.
As I said, Zhang Yuelu has lived here in recent years, and now Yao Pei is moving in. Next year, there will be another Li Changge.
There is a small pond in the courtyard, crystal clear to the bottom. When Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu came to visit Yao Pei for the first time, she was looking at this pond.
Yao Pei walked straight into the house and said at the same time: "I want to set up a ban to prevent others from prying. Fellow Taoist Qi, please bring me some water."
Qi Xuansu nodded, came to the pond, and held up a puddle of water with both hands, which just reflected the moon in the sky.
When Qi Xuansu came to the house, Yao Pei had already posted a talisman on each of the four corners of the main hall, which was of good quality. Then she took out the red thin thread from the Xumi object, connected the four talismans together, and finally tied them.
After making an "Anti-Heaven Seal", the talisman and the red thread flashed, the ban was completed. .??.??
Yao Pei turned around and pointed at the pool of water Qi Xuansu held in his hand, turning it into a water ball and flying into the air.
Qi Xuansu retreated to the side and watched Yao Pei Shiwei quietly.
Yao Pei raised her hands to her chest, palms facing each other, and the water ball flew between her two palms.
Then Yao Pei closed his eyes and kneaded the water ball between his palms with the fingers of his hands, just like a craftsman making porcelain embryos.
After a while, Qi Xuansu was shocked to find that the water polo gradually turned into a jade plaque, which was almost exactly the same as Sun Hewu's jade plaque.
Yao Pei opened his eyes, carefully looked at the jade tablet made of water, and added and modified some details.
Qi Xuansu hesitated and said: "Is this an imitation token?"
"It's not enough." Yao Pei said slowly, "The token of Master Zhang Palace contains the unique divine power of our Taoist sect. It can be activated by the special talisman on the jade token, so that the various restrictions in the Taoist Palace can be unlocked.
Both are indispensable. Now I just copied the talisman on the jade tablet, it is just a mold, and I still need the last step."
Qi Xuansu understood. For example, this is like matching a key. Although the tooth shape of the key is very important, the material cannot be ignored. If the key is made of too soft material, it will not break directly in the lock.
Yao Pei held the imitation mold with one hand, and took out a completely blank jade tablet from the Xumiwu with the other hand.
Except that there is no corresponding talisman pattern, the rest is exactly the same as the token of Master Zhang Gong.
Qi Xuansu was truly shocked.
The so-called power does not necessarily mean that Li
The family stirs up the wind and clouds, and can also see the big from the small.
For example, there is no need to say more about what this blank jade tablet means. Not to mention a mere fourth-grade Taoist priest who offers wine, even a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest will never be able to get it.
But Yao Pei took out a piece easily. It had nothing to do with whether she was a genius or not, or how old she was when she was promoted to a fourth-grade Taoist priest. It only had to do with the power background behind her.
Yao Pei was not surprised by Qi Xuansu's surprise, but simply explained: "This blank embryo itself is also a replica. Compared with the original version, it has many shortcomings. It can only be used five times, once into the alley, to open the Tianshui Yixin Tower.
Once for the main entrance, once for opening the stairway to the second floor, once for opening the stairway to the third floor, and once for lifting the ban on the third floor, exactly five times. Because the token only temporarily opens the seal ban, rather than completely lifting the seal ban,
So there is no need to worry about 'closing the door', the ban will be restored on its own after the corresponding time."
Even so, Qi Xuansu was still very surprised: "You came prepared."
Yao Pei did not deny it: "There are more than one good things in the Wanxiang Dao Palace, and there is also the Xingye Lake..."
"How about Xingye Lake?" Qi Xuansu asked, that is where flying boats take off and land.
Yao Pei did not answer this question, but said: "Given the realms of cultivation between you and me, it's better not to think too much about it."
Qi Xuansu is not an insatiable person. In the early days, he and Qiniang did not miss each other for several months as they are now. Instead, they followed Qiniang every day. That was a real lesson. Qiniang taught Qi Xuansu how to
The truth is that being stingy will not kill you, but being greedy will kill you. Of course, this was just the reason Qiniang gave Qi Xuansu casually when she didn't want to spend money to buy new boots for Qi Xuansu, but Qi Xuansu thought it was very reasonable. Not only did she not ask for new boots, she also
Keep these words in mind.
So Qi Xuansu did not pursue the question further and asked instead: "You said that no one else knew about the semi-immortal object. How did the Earth Master know about it? I don't want to ask more, but where is the Master of the Palm Palace? He is qualified to enter.
Does he know that Tianshui Yixinlou is from Tianshui?"
Yao Pei said: "Zhenren Shi Da is a very upright person who values rules. He has the right to go in, but he will not go in because it is not necessary. He is not the Grand Master, nor is he the assistant manager of Zixiao Palace, and he has no right to deal with prisoners.
, let alone a jailer, there is no need to check on the prisoner’s condition, so what is he doing on the third floor?”
Qi Xuansu understood.
Theoretically speaking, the Grand Master doesn't know about this. The last person to enter the third floor was the Sixth Grand Master. But this is only theoretical. No one can guarantee that the Grand Master will not go in on a whim.
One glance.
Yao Pei Gujing Wubo said: "There is never anything foolproof in this world, as long as you are 70% or 80% sure, it is enough."
As he spoke, Yao Pei held a jade plaque mold imitated with pool water in his left hand, and a blank jade plaque embryo in his right hand. He opened his mouth and spat it out, and a small tripod flew out. It was purple, filled with light, and even surrounded by purple smoke.
lingering.
Confucianism regards vermilion as the correct color and considers purple as a miscellaneous color. Therefore, the sage said: "Those who hate purple are those who steal vermilion; those who hate Zheng Sheng are those who disturb elegant music; those who are evil with words are those who overthrow the country." But this is not the case with Taoism, which has always been the case.
Taking the two colors of Xuansu and purple as the correct colors, Xuansu is black and white. As for purple, let alone Ziweitang, the head of the nine halls. When Taishang Taozu came out of the pass to transform Hu, the purple energy came from the east for 30,000 miles, so in
Inside the Taoist Gate, purple also means honor. It is very rare for any object to be tainted with some purple meaning. Just like in the previous dynasty, only the royal family could use bright yellow objects.
From this we can see that this small square tripod is very impressive and can be said to be a treasure at least.
I saw that the small cauldron was only the size of a grain of rice at first. After flying out of the exit, it turned into the size of an eyeball, then the size of a human head, getting bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a three-foot-tall cauldron and fell to the ground.
Yao Pei combined the two things in his left and right hands, and then put them into the cauldron. Then he wrapped his left hand around his right hand, with the palms of both hands facing inward. He pinched the sub-line of his right hand with the big finger of his left hand and pinched the midday line of his right hand with the big finger of his right hand, forming a "Tai Chi"
"Seal" and shouted: "Fire."
Before he finished speaking, a cluster of green flames rose up from the cauldron. In a blink of an eye, the fire became so intense that the surrounding air began to distort.
Only now did Qi Xuansu get to know the background of the children of the aristocratic family. It is no wonder that Zhang Yuelu always resonates with Qi Xuansu on the topic of "poverty" and always looks embarrassed.
Compared with Qi Xuansu, Zhang Yuelu certainly has a rich family, but compared with people of her same level, Zhang Yuelu without family support is indeed a bit poor. Under such circumstances, Zhang Yuelu can still keep herself clean, no matter that she has high hopes for the future.
Regardless of her ambition, or whether she sticks to her true heart, it is extremely difficult.
Furthermore, the situations of the two of them are quite similar. The Zhang family and the Li family are tied as the two top aristocratic families in Taoism. Since they are on par with the Li family, the Zhang family's wealth is definitely better than that of the Yao family, but Zhang Yuelu's
The treatment is far less than that of Yao Pei, which only means that the Zhang family is unwilling to give her, or is only willing to give her the treatment of the small sect branch, which is very little. In the same way, Qiniang
As the owner of Qibaofang, she has many contacts in the Quanzhen Tao, and she is also a top middleman in the Qingping Society. She is also rich, but she is even worse. Not only does she not give, she also makes money from Qi Xuansu.
At this point, even if Zhang Yuelu never reveals it because of her pride and self-respect, she must have sympathy for Qi Xuansu in her heart. After all, Zhang Yuelu is not a fool. She has already noticed that Qi Xuansu has some help behind her, but due to various concerns, she does not want to think deeply about it.
Upon closer inspection, that's why Yao Pei said she was trying to deceive herself and others.
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but sigh when he thought about all these things.
Yao Pei ignored Qi Xuansu and began to close his eyes to rest, letting the green flames in the furnace burn silently.
After about half an hour, the flame in the cauldron became smaller and eventually extinguished.
Yao Pei opened his eyes, stretched out his hand, and a jade tablet flew out of the cauldron. At first glance, it was exactly the same as the jade tablet in Sun Hewu's hand.
Incredible craftsmanship, clever workmanship.
Qi Xuansu recalled the scene when Yao Pei carefully rubbed the original jade plaque with both hands, and couldn't help but said: "Is this also the magic of 'Tianfu'?"
"Yes." Yao Pei caught the jade token, "With Mr. Sun's knowledge, if he thought about it deeply, he would probably guess that I had recorded all the patterns of the talismans using 'heaven's calculation', but he would never have thought that I had the Taoism Containment Sect.
A blank embryo with unique divine power. In fact, at the beginning of the design of this token, the function of different talisman patterns was only to distinguish it from other tokens of the same level. For example, the token of Wanxiang Dao Palace cannot be able to open the ban of Wuxu Palace.
This is the function of the talismans. They protect one's own people, so these talismans are not very precise. The root of opening the ban lies in the token and the divine power itself. This is the key. It protects against outsiders."
Qi Xuansu nodded to express his understanding and asked, "Then when will we go to Tianshui Yixin Tower again?"
Yao Pei had already made a plan and said calmly: "You and Mr. Sun have chosen a good time. Tomorrow morning at 10:00, the Wanxiang Taoist Palace will hold regular discussions on the third floor of Mingtang. Except for the assistants, the other high-quality Taoist priests will
Master Sun will also go there, and Master Sun will personally preside over the discussion. Now, except for you and me, who can freely enter and exit the nine libraries in the innermost part of Gen Garden, the rest can only follow the assistant to enter, so during the discussion,
No one will go to the nine libraries, so this is the best time. Things should happen sooner rather than later, as things will change later. My opinion is to go tomorrow morning."
Qi Xuansu was really impressed: "Fellow Daoist Yao, you have great cultivation skills and deep planning. You are very ambitious and talented. You are worthy of being the future leader of Quanzhen Tao chosen by the Earth Master. Then follow what Friend Yao said and go there tomorrow morning."
