Wanderer of the whirling world

Chapter 233 Xuanming's Warning

After years of struggling in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, Zhan Zhao's imprint of a knight-errant has long been erased.

Compared with those around him who more or less still retain the smoky atmosphere of the green forest, Zhan Nanxia is more like a seasoned official. What he cares about in his heart is no longer the morals of the world, but how to get rid of it. Obtain greater benefits for Kaifeng Mansion and the court.

Seeing that Xin Ziqiu had agreed without hesitation to go to the Tongtian Ring, and that he had another master on his side, he was overjoyed and said:
"Xiaoqiu, you just returned to Bianliang City, Uncle Zhan shouldn't have talked to you about these things, but the country is in trouble, and we ministers should also come forward. Fortunately, there is still time before the battle of Tongtian Lei In two or three days, you should rest well, recharge your energy, and then show off your glory in the ring, and make a name for yourself in the Jianghu."

Xin Ziqiu smiled when he heard this, but didn't say much.

Xu Liang was displeased when he heard that Zhan Zhao insisted on asking Xin Ziqiu to fight, but Nan Xiake was not only his elder, but also Lord Bao's most caring guard, and what he said was on the side of morality and righteousness. It's hard to refute, so I can only walk over and hook Xin Ziqiu's shoulders, whispering in his ear:
"If you can't beat it, just run away. You are still a child, so there is no shame in losing."

Xin Ziqiu felt Xu Liang's sincerity, knowing that he was really worried about him, his heart warmed up, and he said with a smile:

"Don't worry, third brother, I won't show off, but it's not a bad thing to have such a chance to compete with the world's masters."

As he spoke, he patted Xu Liang's back lightly with his hand, and passed a wave of mellow energy and blood to him.

Xu Liang only felt that the vest was hot, and several long and steady streams of true energy penetrated his extraordinary meridians, opening up several acupoints that were originally constricted for him in an instant, which made him feel indescribably comfortable.

This time, it was enough for him to practice hard for several days, Shanxi Yan was very surprised, turned his head to look, but saw Xin Ziqiu was nodding and smiling at him, with sincerity in his eyes, he understood it in his heart.

Three days after farewell, I should look at each other with admiration, I don't know what kind of adventure my little brother has experienced, but I haven't seen him for several months, and his skill is far better than before. , has far surpassed the masters of the Kaifeng Mansion, and has reached an incredible realm.

With such a deep and mellow internal force, he is absolutely qualified to challenge any great master in the world, so my worries seem unnecessary.

Xu Liang glanced at Xin Ziqiu with relief, feeling happy for him from the bottom of his heart, knowing that he didn't want to make it public, he didn't say anything more, just patted him on the shoulder vigorously.

Full of confidantes, all in silence.

This banquet lasted until the second watch. If it wasn't because Xin Ziqiu had just returned, everyone thought he needed to rest more, and they might have made a fuss in Jia's house all night long.

In the end, Jiang Ping put on an old face and scolded Aihu Han Tianjin and others who were already drunk, and then everyone dispersed one after another.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xin Ziqiu bid farewell to Jia Xian and Jia Zhiqing and went back to rest.

Jia Xian took out a sealed letter from his bosom, handed it to him and said:
"Xiaoqiu, the maid who served you before, Meiguan, has left. She said that her family has prepared a marriage for her, and she is going back to her hometown to get married. Before leaving, I left you a letter and kept it with me. Hey , I think this girl has always been kind to you, she left unexpectedly, probably because she thought she would not be able to wait for you to come back."

Xin Ziqiu took the letter and smiled. Xuan Ming was indeed not dead, and the reason why he left was most likely because the mission was completed and he was teleported back to the real world.

After leaving the banquet, he returned to his own room, did not ask a maid to serve him, just washed his face indiscriminately, then sat at the table alone, and opened Xuan Ming's letter by candlelight.

The letter was very short, not Xuan Ming's usual cloudy and misty talkative style, it should have been written in a hurry when he was about to leave, to the effect that he told Xin Ziqiu that he was not dead, that he didn't need to mourn, let alone cry, and contact him when he returned to the real world.

Only the last sentence made him shudder.

"Be careful with Hong Taiwei, burn after reading."

After reading this, Xin Ziqiu's pupils shrank slightly, quickly picked up the letter paper, burned it on the candlestick, and his heart was beating non-stop.

The three of them are now affiliated to Yuxu Palace and are allies of the same camp, and Taiwei Hong just rescued him, but why did Xuan Ming remind him to be careful of each other?

And think about it, this is not the first time Xuan Ming has warned him.

Before entering the ancient tomb, when she handed over the life-saving jade talisman on behalf of Hong Taiwei, she had solemnly warned that using this jade talisman would cause future troubles.

Xin Ziqiu didn't take this sentence as a deaf ear. He resisted the use of the jade talisman in several consecutive life and death crises in the ancient tomb, but at the last moment, he still had to use it to save his life.

But when Taiwei Hong rescued him through the jade talisman and extended an invitation to him on behalf of Yuxu Palace, for a moment, he had let go of his guard, and even almost recognized his father.

In the final analysis, with Taiwei Hong's bottomless and tyrannical strength, it is easy to kill him, but from the beginning to the end, this supreme person has never done anything against him.

Xin Ziqiu is pure in nature, he never judges others with malice, and he doesn't want to label people as good or evil easily, but after reading this letter, he doesn't know whether he should choose to believe in Xuan Ming or Hong Taiwei, just He felt that these senior practitioners were all human beings, not only extremely intelligent, but also extremely calculating, and their understanding of people's hearts was far from that of a college student in an ivory tower like him.

My cultivation base is superficial, so I can't fight against them, so I can only be cautious in every step, pay more attention to everything, and find a way to have the same strength as them as soon as possible, so as not to be manipulated as a pawn.

Yes, only by improving your strength and cultivating into the Yang God Golden Immortal as soon as possible, can you have the opportunity to have an equal dialogue with these powerful people.

Thinking of this, Xin Ziqiu's sleepiness was swept away, he simply opened the treasure bag, poured out all the contents, and began to take stock of the gains from the trip to the ancient tomb.

He first picked up two ancient jades, one red and one suet white, which were the inherited skills given to him by the two real immortals Zhong Liquan and Lu Dongbin respectively.

He immersed his spiritual thoughts into the red nephrite jade, and found that what was recorded in it were all Zhongliquan's perception and experience of proving the Tao, which was called "Zhixuan Tu".

Although there is a word "picture" in the name, there are no pictures in this inheritance, and there are only a few words in the text, most of which are divine thoughts directly recorded in a special way.

This is because the matter of becoming an immortal and attaining the Tao is too mysterious, and ordinary words and pictures have limited expressive power, and cannot accurately convey the subtle and profound meanings. Therefore, many immortals use this method to preach to the latecomers.

Of course, if you want to engrave your spiritual thoughts, you must at least have a solid Dao foundation, which can only be done by a true immortal who has formed a golden core.

Xin Ziqiu checked for a while, and found that most of them were about the realization of the Dao Embryo Golden Elixir, which was too obscure for him to understand, so I skipped it for the time being, and only looked at the experience of breaking through the innate, reborn as a mortal and becoming an Earth Immortal .

He once used the power of Taotie to obtain innate true qi, had personal experience in this area, and then confirmed it with the content in the Zhixuan diagram, and there was indeed a lot of interlinkages, which benefited him a lot.

In particular, Zhong Liquan's comprehension at the moment when he became an Earth Immortal made him feel as if he was there, and he had more confidence in breaking through the shackles of the third level of innate Wuji Gong.
