Chapter 333 Great Zhou Spirit Vein (nearly 20000 words super chapter)
Western Regions.

Shaz Country.

Instigated by Master Hui'an, King Lenka eventually led the anti-Zhou alliance.

Strictly speaking, this is already the second anti-Zhou alliance.

The first anti-Zhou alliance had a good momentum, but when it was about to take the sandbar, the boat capsized in the gutter, and was killed by the Anxi army who retreated to the sandbar.

The situation reversed in an instant.

The Anxi army at this moment is extremely brave, and they can't wait to prove their strength and wash away the humiliation of the past.

Under the leadership of Liu Lin, the general guard of Anxi, they tried their best to fight hard, and finally wiped out the anti-Zhou Western Regions coalition.

That is an army of more than [-], and it was lost on a distant sandbar.

This battle was a serious blow to the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and it also greatly weakened the voice of the main combat faction among the 36 countries in the Western Regions.

Since then, the peace faction and the wall-riding faction have occupied the mainstream of the 36 countries in the Western Regions.

For a while, the main fighters could only calm down and temporarily suppress their impulses.

Until the order of Emperor Xianlong to enter Jingqin was issued, Liu Lin had no choice but to give up the good situation in the Western Regions, and led the main Anxi army back to Chang'an to rescue King Qin.

He only left tens of thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled to guard the Western Regions. It is impossible to defend such a force.

This is not only clear to King Lenka, but also Liu Lin, the governor of Anxi.

From the moment Liu Lin transferred all the main force away, it meant that everything was over.

What Lenka has to do now is to convince those main fighters and inspire their fighting spirit and ambition.

It has indeed been too long since the main combat faction has died down. At this time, he needs to do more work to restore their spirits.

Of course, Renka knew that this was not difficult.

Once a person plants a seed in his heart, the seed will take root and sprout sooner or later, it is nothing more than time.

So Lenka decided to continue to advance from the inside out, from near to far.

This can expand the power to a considerable extent, but it will not appear obtrusive.

As for Master Hui'an's operation, King Lunka will not take care of it, because he is sure that Master Hui'an has his own reasons.

As long as Master Hui'an's actions can promote the improvement of the entire alliance, it is reasonable.

King Renka knew very well that the Anxi garrison at this time was very empty, as long as they had even a chance, they could completely turn the situation around.

In a fortress in the Western Region, far away from Chang'an City, an ordinary soldier was standing guard in the defense zone.

He suddenly saw billowing black smoke in the desert, and was dazed for a while.

What's going on here?

Could it be a sandstorm?

But it doesn't look like it if you look closely.

While he was in doubt, the black smoke rolled towards him in an instant.

Before the soldier could even react, he was swept away by the black smoke.

The soldier was in so much pain that he felt as if his flesh was being brushed against by an iron brush.

He wanted to howl, to cry for help.

But it didn't work.

All this is in vain.

No matter what sound he wanted to make, the sound disappeared in his throat.

Fear was written all over the soldier's face.

He watched himself being swallowed helplessly, and the great pain made his whole body almost tear apart.

In an instant, the soldier was freed, and the living body turned into a dead bone.

After that the black smoke disappeared.

Master Hui'an came out from the thick black smoke.

There was a weird smile on his face.

This is the sense of pride after the trick succeeds.

He really planned to provoke the bottom line of Anxi's defenders in this way.

The bottom line seems solid, but as long as you keep challenging, there is always the possibility of breakthrough.

Master Hui'an is well aware of this.

Now the whole situation has completely tilted towards them.

As long as he creates panic among the Anxi defenders, the fear of war will spread throughout the entire Anxi army.

This may be faster than expected.

Because people follow the crowd.

This feeling may not be obvious when one person or two people.

But if there are five or ten people, they will start to doubt.

Thirty, fifty, 100 and these guys are completely convinced that something has to change.

What Master Hui'an has to do is to mess up the morale of the Anxi army.

As long as the Anxi Army's troops are disturbed, the next thing will be easy to handle.

If it is said that what King Lenka is doing is a positive conspiracy, then what he is doing is a conspiracy from the side.

Conspiracy may look a bit darker, but the effect is equally good.

Master Hui'an is a person who doesn't value the process very much. What he values ​​is the result.

It doesn't matter how ugly the process is as long as the result is good.

The mighty Western Regions Esoteric School, one day you will rule the world.

Compared with Master Huiyan's more gentle strategy, Master Hui'an's strategy seems so simple and rude.

At first glance, this may seem incomprehensible.

But Master Hui'an believes that as long as he sticks to this idea, after hundreds of years or so people have gotten used to it, they will not hesitate to regard the Tantric School of the Western Regions as Zhengshuo.

What Zhao Xun is most curious about now is where exactly is the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain.

Before, he always thought that the spiritual pulse of Zhongnan Mountain was hidden in the academy.

But what Shan Zhang said made him think otherwise.

Maybe the spirit veins of Zhongnan Mountain and the spirit veins of the academy are not the same thing?

Maybe the academy's spirit vein is only a part of Zhongnan Mountain's spirit vein?

The academy's holiness is not because of the academy itself, but because it occupies the most radiant section of the spiritual vein in Zhongnan Mountain?
Once these thoughts were born, Zhao Xun couldn't wait to verify them.

He is very clear that as long as these thoughts are confirmed, it will be a great subversion to the cognition of scholars in the world, and even people in the world.

But Zhao Xun still wants to verify.

He doesn't care about these so-called false names, what he cares about is the truth itself.

It may sound absurd, but this is indeed what Zhao Xun really thinks.

Whether it is Zhongnan Mountain or the Academy.

In fact, it is just a speck of dust in this vast universe.

Even this world is just a speck of dust in this universe?

Zhao Xun felt that he should really explore it.

The feeling of peeling back the cocoon, clearing the clouds and seeing the fog made him look forward to it.

If he can really discover something creatively, maybe everyone in this world will remember it?
If he can really reveal the hidden truth behind the spiritual vein, maybe the whole world will cheer for him.

So Zhao Xun resolutely embarked on the road of searching for spiritual veins, and of course he was accompanied by Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother of Fengshui expert.

As long as the Sixth Senior Brother is by his side, Zhao Xun is steadfast.

"Senior Brother Six, today's weather seems to be really good, very suitable for going out."

Although Zhao Xun has had time to leave the academy recently, it was basically for work.

It is either to understand the history of the major tribes in the continent of Allen Lore, or to mediate the grievances between them.

In other words, Zhao Xun didn't have much time for himself.

This is no joke, this is so hopeless.

Zhao Xun is very clear that life and work must be separated.

If the two are mixed, the consequences will be very serious, and it is likely to cause the whole person to fall into a state of chaos.

Of course, Zhao Xun doesn't want to be in this state. Reasonable planning of time can relieve stress and reduce boring emotions to the greatest extent.

It's like going out today to look for the spirit vein of Zhongnan Mountain.

Zhao Xun can regard it as an outing, or an outing.

Of course, this is technically a job, but at least it's not as boring as other jobs.

"Junior brother, let's see how happy you are. How long have you been holding back?"

For a while, Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, didn't know what to say.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the little junior brother is obviously a little too excited.

"Uh, it's rare to go out for a trip, Brother Six, don't spoil the fun."

Zhao Xun looked helpless.

"No, Junior Brother, it's not that I want to spoil the fun, it's just that Zhongnan Mountain is only this big, what new things do you think we can come up with?"

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, spent much longer time in Zhongnan Mountain than Zhao Xun.

Staying here for a long time made Dazhou Xu Xiake lose the so-called novelty.

And this is fatal.

"That's a bad word."

Zhao Xun shook his head, expressing a different opinion from Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother.

"I think everything lies in exploration. As long as we have a heart to explore, even familiar things can find newness."

Zhao Xun spread his hands and said, "Senior Brother Six, you just follow my rhythm today. I will definitely take you off."

"Uh"

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, was a little dumbfounded for a while.

What else can he do if the junior brother has talked about this?
"Okay, but little brother, we still have to be more careful. The high priest of the Demon Sect and the black wizard used to wander in this generation. Now I'm not sure if they have gone far. If they suddenly kill us, it will still hurt us." No small threat."

Zhao Xun thought in his heart, good guy, the sixth senior brother is cautious.

At this time, don't forget the high priest of the Demon Sect and the black wizard.

But that's fine too.

There is still a need for vigilance.

"Well, I remember."

A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.

Water does not have to be deep.

But Zhao Xun and his sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou walked along a mountain stream.

Where there is water, there is plenty of aura, Zhao Xun is sure of this.

Along the way, Zhao Xun felt extremely excited.

"Good fellow, it is indeed Zhongnan Mountain, a land of exquisite beauty. Even at a corner, it is possible to find something miraculous."

It turned out that Zhao Xun saw a small waterfall when he turned a corner of the mountain.

The height of the waterfall is not very high, but it is really shocking.

The feeling of flying straight down hits people's hearts.

Zhao Xun took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down.

"Senior Brother Six, do you think there are spiritual veins hidden in this waterfall?"

"Uh"

For a moment, Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, didn't know how to answer the conversation.

Junior Brother is very tricky to ask this question.

He can't say that there is no spiritual vein here, because there is indeed such a possibility.

"How about we go take a look?"

"it is good"

The sixth brother Lu Guangdou said it very reluctantly, and Zhao Xun couldn't say anything for a while, after all, it was what he asked for.

"Well, Sixth Senior Brother, please go first."

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, also walked ahead unceremoniously.

"This waterfall is really interesting."

Lu Guangdou found a cave hidden behind the waterfall.

He penetrated into the cave without hesitation, and Zhao Xun followed.

The cave is very big, Zhao Xun felt enlightened as soon as he entered it.

"Good fellow, as expected of Zhongnan Mountain, I never imagined that such a large cave can be hidden behind a mere waterfall. Brother Six, look at this stalactite. It is really amazing that such a cave can be found in the north."

In the south, due to climate and geological reasons, it is quite normal for caves to appear.

But in the north, the probability of such caves appearing is much smaller.

The main reason is caused by the hydrological environment in the north.

"Well, you should also be careful, maybe there will be something unclean in here."

Lu Guangdou is a master of Fengshui. When he said this, Zhao Xun couldn't help but thumped in his heart.

"Uh, no, is there really something unclean?"

"No one can say it's bad, but it's okay to be careful, right?"

"That's true"

Zhao Xun nodded.

"Follow me, little brother."

Lu Guangdou forced out his true energy to illuminate, and the effect was quite good.

The cave, which was originally extremely dark, was instantly illuminated extremely brightly.

"Wow, Sixth Senior Brother, someone must have been to this place before. Look, there are murals on the wall of the cave."

Zhao Xun's eyes were very sharp, and he realized the magic on the cave wall in an instant.

"Uh, it seems that someone has indeed been here."

There are traces of man-made carvings on the cave wall, which is too obvious.

"Who would come here? Hiding in a cave behind a waterfall, maybe they want to practice some peerless magic?"

Zhao Xun has read many martial arts novels, and he has beyond ordinary people's imagination about the cave behind the waterfall.

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, shook his head and said, "I don't think so. If someone is really practicing in this cave, why would he leave this mural to tell others? Isn't this equivalent to exposing the target?"

"Uh"

Zhao Xun thought about it carefully, and it seemed that what Brother Six said made sense.

If someone hadn't deliberately hid in the cave to practice, who would have left this mural?

Zhao Xun felt very curious for a moment.

"Don't think about it yet, let's continue walking in."

"Um"

Zhao Xun is still full of spirit of exploration.

Now that the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou said it, he will naturally try his best to follow.

But the further you go inside, the smaller the space in the cave.

Zhao Xun was already tall, so he had to bend down to walk forward.

"Little brother, be careful, there are too many stalagmites and they are very sharp, and they can easily scratch the skin."

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother walking in front, reminded cautiously.

Zhao Xun couldn't help being moved, Sixth Senior Brother is really a warm man.

The further you go in, the more magical the scene becomes.

Zhao Xun was surprised to find that there was a hole in the cave.

It was completely different from what he had imagined. The cave became wider and wider as he went in, and could even connect to the outside world through a dark river.

Tsk tsk tsk, this is really surprising.

Zhao Xun tried his best to calm down.

In Zhongnanshan, it seems that nothing is surprising.

Zhao Xun is very aware of Lu Guangdou's ability to judge Feng Shui.

So he just needs to follow closely behind the sixth senior brother.

"Junior Brother, now we are facing a problem. The water level in the dark river ahead is a bit deep, we have to hold our breath if we want to enter, and I'm afraid we won't be able to get this clothes."

Sixth Senior Brother seemed very hesitant when he said this.

No way, the clothes are brand new.

Lu Guangdou spent three taels of silver to order it at the largest tailor shop in Chang'an, the capital.

Three taels of silver is not a small amount, enough for an average family to spend for a month.

And the sixth senior brother actually spent a lot of money to buy a piece of clothing.

"Well, there is actually no other way."

Sixth Senior Brother was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what Little Senior Brother meant.

He couldn't help but blushed.

Junior brother can really do it.

"Ahem, let's forget it. And even if we leave the clothes here, will we have to turn back to get the clothes later? After all, it's impossible"

Speaking of this, Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, couldn't continue.

"Of course I don't mean that. Since the sixth brother thinks this is not possible, then it is not acceptable. Why don't we turn back and find another way. I believe that we will be able to find another way to reach the exit of this dark river."

Zhao Xun was helpless.

"Well, that's all."

Sixth Senior Brother blushed and said.

But said that the two brothers and sisters returned the same way one after the other.

They exited the cave and jumped out of the waterfall with a whoosh.

Hiss, it's really refreshing, this is an extraordinary feeling
Although the whole body is not soaked like jumping into the dark river, Zhao Xun feels that it is not much worse.
"Sixth senior brother, let's go up and have a look."

Zhao Xun pointed to the top of the waterfall, and Lu Guangdou, the sixth brother, nodded in agreement.

But said that the two of them walked up the somewhat muddy dirt road, one in front and one behind.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed by.

Both of them were taken aback.

"who!"

The sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou shouted loudly, trying to stop the man.

But that black shadow had no intention of staying at all, it just disappeared in front of the two of them in a light flash.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

In Zhao Xun's view, this must have something to do with the high priest of the Demon Sect and the black wizard.

So sneaky, there must be something hidden in it.

At this moment, Zhao Xun didn't even pay attention to where the dark river in the cave led to, nor even where the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain was hidden.

At this moment, Zhao Xun just wants to catch up and find out who this mysterious guy is.

Zhao Xun and the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou looked at each other, and at that moment he was sure that the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou had exactly the same idea.

Zhao Xun showed a gratified smile.

It's not easy, it's not easy.

Sixth senior brother finally thought of going with him.

However, whether it is Lu Guangdou or Zhao Xun, the sixth senior brother, their lightness skills are not very good, and it is not an easy task to keep up with that black shadow.

In the academy, if we want to talk about masters of lightness kung fu, we have to count three senior brothers, Long Qingquan.

But at the moment the third senior brother Long Qingquan must be chatting with the head of the mountain, Zhao Xun knew that even if he went to ask the third senior brother at this moment, the third senior brother would not take a second look.

Rather than that, I don't bother the third senior brother.

Zhao Xun and Lu Guangdou's lightness kung fu is inferior, only compared to Long Qingquan.

In fact, their lightness skills are still above average.

They followed the black shadow all the way, and when they were about to catch up, they saw the black shadow jump and sneak into a patch of reeds.

hiss.
Seeing this, Zhao Xun couldn't help but gasped.

Angry, he is really angry.

It's a good thing that this guy ran away like this.

No one can bear this.

"Senior Brother Six, do you want to chase him?"

"Of course we have to chase. We have all followed. If we just lose track like this, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the academy? Junior brother, even if you don't care about this face problem, the head of the mountain must care."

Zhao Xun thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be the same reason.

"Since the sixth senior brother said so, I will naturally accompany him to the end."

Zhao Xun knew that he must not retreat at this time.

If he retreated at this time, he would definitely be looked down upon by the sixth brother.

"Okay, then remember one thing. In the reeds, the line of sight is obstructed, so try to judge the opponent's position by hearing."

"Um"

Zhao Xun replied in a deep voice.

The two jumped into the reeds one after another.

It had to be said that the reeds were so high that they didn't even pass above their heads.

Fortunately, this is a dry reed, where Zhao Xun and the others can step on it down-to-earth.

This more or less relieved their anxiety.

"We move forward slowly, and don't make too much noise, so as not to startle the snake."

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, seemed very experienced, and said carefully in Zhao Xun's ear.

"it is good."

Zhao Xun nodded.

Walking through the reeds really gave him a wonderful feeling.

It's like being in a jungle that can't be seen at a glance, and the psychedelic feeling makes people feel very strange.

And Zhao Xun can indeed feel that the sense of orientation has disappeared.

In the absence of a clear reference, he couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north.

Fortunately, Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, was still there.

Sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou took out his golden compass without hesitation.

This thing can be described as an artifact to determine the position.

More importantly, it can not only determine the orientation, but also determine the location of the evil spirit.

The moment Lu Guangdou took out the compass, the copper pointer on the compass began to tremble violently.

Lu Guangdou and Zhao Xun were very excited, because this is the best proof that there is a monster here.

Sure enough, there are monsters, or people from the Demon Sect are here.

That shadow should be one of the two.

"Senior Brother Six, do you think it is more likely to be a monster, or a practitioner of the Demon Sect?"

"It seems the latter is more likely."

Lu Guangdou cleared his throat and said, "It's been a long time since monsters appeared near Zhongnan Mountain. The sudden appearance may not be very big, but didn't the high priest of the Demon Sect haunt Zhongnan Mountain not long ago? This time it's his." The possibility of apprentices and grandchildren is not small."

"Um"

Zhao Xun and Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, held similar views.

"So this time it's the Demon Sect playing tricks behind the scenes again"

Zhao Xun gritted his teeth with hatred for the Mozong, and they were there wherever there was a problem.

That black shadow was nothing but an illusion of the High Priest of the Demon Sect.

The reason why he didn't come here in person, but used an illusion, was because he was concerned about the head of the mountain.

He could smell the head of the mountain.

The smell was so obvious that the high priest of the Mozong could smell it from a long distance away.

The High Priest of the Demon Sect would not risk his life if he was sure that the head of the mountain was nearby.

It took him a long time to finally persuade a group of dark wizards to agree to stop with silence.

The Corruptor has not yet arrived in Chang'an, so it is not wise to act rashly at this time.

The High Priest of the Demon Sect must learn as much as possible about the movements of the academy disciples and the head of the mountain, so that he can make targeted arrangements on this basis.

The best way is naturally to divert the tiger away from the mountain and lead the mountain leader away.

But the head of the mountain is not stupid. If he wants to lure the head of the mountain away, he must have a reason that he cannot refuse.

The high priest of the Mozong thought of a way.

That is to steal the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain.

Zhongnan Mountain has always been regarded as a holy place. This is mainly because Zhongnan Mountain is the closest mountain to Chang'an City. The purpose of many people living in seclusion here is not really wanting to live the life of idle clouds, wild cranes, plum wives and crane children, but I just want to use Zhongnan Mountain as a springboard.They first created an image of an outsider, and then waited for the court to send someone to invite them.

Here they can put on a show to the maximum, and use all their imaginations to put gold on their faces.

Its real purpose is to be an official.

But regardless of these things, I have to say that Zhongnanshan still has aura, and the aura is not shallow.

Many practitioners can get enlightenment after staying in Zhongnan Mountain for a short time, and their realm can be broken through.

In the view of the high priest of Mozong, this just shows that Zhongnan Mountain has aura.

And all this is because of the existence of spiritual veins.

Zhongnan Mountain is located just above this spiritual vein.

So what if this spirit vein is dug out?

What would happen if this spirit vein was dug out?
The High Priest of the Demon Sect couldn't wait to see it for himself.

Of course, the High Priest of the Demon Sect admits that doing so is risky.

But this risk is nothing compared to the benefits obtained.

So here he comes, he sends a phantom.

It's just that he never thought that he would run into two academy disciples on the road.

These two people seem to have come all the way to search for the spiritual veins of Zhongnan Mountain.

It can be said that they bumped into each other.

The High Priest of Mozong estimated the opponent's strength, one of the two academy disciples was less than the third rank, and the other was less than the second rank.

And the hallucinations of the high priest of the Demon Sect are all first-class.

If they really fought against each other, those two academy disciples would not be the opponents of the phantom of the high priest of the Demon Sect.

But the High Priest of the Mozong had other concerns. He knew that he couldn't expose his target and himself so easily.

He must hide as much as possible if possible.

Because only in this way can it burst out suddenly and take the life of the enemy.

The High Priest of the Mozong didn't want to reveal his identity so easily without certainty.

So he decided to run.

The phantom is very light, so it is naturally much faster to run than the deity.

It just so happened that the two academy disciples were not masters of lightness kung fu, and they couldn't keep up with the pace of the high priest of the Demon Sect.

It didn't take long for the High Priest of the Demon Sect to get rid of them.

With the cover of the reeds, the High Priest of Mozong turned back again to find the location of the spirit vein in Zhongnan Mountain.

This time, he wanted to find the spiritual pulse no matter what.

This is an excellent opportunity.

"What to do, Sixth Senior Brother, we lost him."

Zhao Xun looked very depressed after confirming that they had lost the shadow.

He sat on the ground with his hands spread out.

Although they had the blessing of the golden compass, they still lost people.

This shows that the opponent's lightness skill is very good, and he is very good at hiding himself, and can hide himself at the smallest cost.

However, the tracking skills of Zhao Xun and Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, are not top-notch.

If Senior Brother Hanhan Shi came, or if Senior Brother Three was present, the situation would be different.

But there are no ifs in life, no assumptions in life.

Zhao Xun and Lu Guangdou had to accept this reality no matter how disappointed they were.

"I can't help it. It's true that my skills are inferior to others. There's nothing I can do if I lose my follower."

Lu Guangdou knew that it was useless to complain at this time, so he suggested: "Let's go back to the academy first, and tell the head of the mountain what we saw today, and see what the head of the mountain has to say."

Faced with this suggestion from the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou, Zhao Xun took it seriously.

"Well, now it seems that this is the only way to go."

But said that the academy duo returned to the academy all the way, and they didn't suffer any attacks along the way.

It seems that the black shadow really only came to spy on information, and had no intention of hurting anyone.

But Zhao Xun knew that he must not be careless at this time.Because it is hard to say when this black shadow will appear again.

When the black shadow reappears, it will be a big trouble for the academy.

At this time, quickly report to the head of the mountain, and get the help of the head of the mountain, which is the most sensible decision.

"Shan Zhang, that's what it looks like. We didn't follow that black shadow for long before we were completely thrown off by it."

Zhao Xun looked very frustrated.

"Well, for the teacher to know."

The head of the mountain stroked his beard and said leisurely: "From this point of view, this person must be the Demon Sect."

The head of the mountain said very calmly: "The high priest of the Demon Sect, the high priest of the Demon Sect, I didn't expect that such a dignified master as you would want to play such a despicable routine as illusion."

Zhao Xun was really surprised when he heard this.

"Shan Zhang, what did you say, you mean this is the High Priest of the Demon Sect personally?"

"of course."

The head of the mountain said indifferently: "He is afraid of being a teacher, so he dare not come in person. But he is worried about letting other people come, so he can only come up with this compromise method. But thinking about it carefully, this is enough to embarrass him. It's just that he didn't expect that he could smell Wei Shi, so why can't Wei Shi not smell him? In this way, Wei Shi basically knows his movements."

Shan Chang looked confident, which undoubtedly made Zhao Xun very calm.

Well, it is reliable to have a mountain.

They basically don't need to do anything, they just need to play support next to the mountain leader.

"If the teacher is not mistaken, the high priests of the Mozong are also looking for the spiritual veins of Zhongnan Mountain. If they can find the spiritual veins, they will destroy the spiritual veins without hesitation. At that time, the spiritual energy of Zhongnan Mountain and even the academy will be gone." It would take a lot of damage and our home court advantage would be wiped out."

Hiss, it turns out that the High Priest of the Demon Sect has such thoughts, it's really vicious.

Zhao Xun secretly slandered in his heart.

"But as a teacher, I won't give him this chance."

Shan Chang stroked his beard and said calmly.

"Shan Zhang, please do what you need us to do."

Zhao Xun thought in his heart that now he can finally fight Master with confidence.

"Well, little 72, do you still remember what I said as a teacher, you are a Wenqu star descending to earth."

The head of the mountain said with a half-smile.

Zhao Xun felt a little hairy when he was stared at by the head of the mountain.

"Your old man did say that, but this disciple never took it seriously."

Zhao Xun waved his hands again and again.

He didn't want Shan Chang and his old man to misunderstand.

You must know that the head of the mountain is a Confucian saint in the world, if Zhao Xun is the star of Wenqu, who is older between him and the head of the mountain?

Do you have to try it out?
There is no reason for an apprentice to compare with a master.So forget it.

"Well, it's great that you can think that way, but being a teacher is not a nonsense. You are indeed a Wenqu star descending to earth."

The tone of the head of the mountain suddenly became very serious, which made Zhao Xun stunned for a while.

Good guy, the old man Shan Zhang is not here for real, is he?
It means that he is really a Wenquxing descended to earth?

"Wenquxing is the star in the sky, and the corresponding underground is the spiritual vein. Being a teacher means that you have a mutual choice relationship with the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain."

Uh.
Hearing this, Zhao Xun was completely restless.

What, what, he has a mutual choice relationship with the Zhongnan Mountain Lingmai?
It means that Zhao Xun came to Zhongnan Mountain to become a disciple of Haoran Academy, is it a fateful thing?
If so.
Zhao Xun felt very exciting just thinking about it.

"So if the high priest of the Demon Sect wants to find the spiritual vein, he will eventually find you. I wonder if you have made it clear for the teacher."

"Uh"

Zhao Xun seemed to understand.

According to the meaning of the head of the mountain, it seems that the situation is a bit complicated.

He and Lingmai have a symbiotic relationship?
If he really came to this conclusion, Zhao Xun really didn't know what to say for a while.

"So as a teacher, there is a way to attract the high priest of the Demon Sect."

"What way?"

Zhao Xun and sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou asked in unison.

"Using you as bait. The aura emanating from you is very similar to the aura emanating from the Zhongnan Mountain's spiritual veins. Therefore, the High Priest of the Demon Sect will definitely be tempted to take the bait."

good guy.
For a while, Zhao Xun was surprised by Shanzhang's method.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is indeed a wise choice.

"My boy, don't worry, although you are used as bait, your safety will not be affected at all."

If others say so, Zhao Xun may have to weigh it up.

But Zhao Xun can choose to believe what the head of the mountain said unconditionally.

"Um"

"Little 72, there is one thing you need to know. As long as you are a teacher, no one in this world can hurt you. As long as you are a teacher, no one can turn the world upside down."

"Uh"

"Don't say anything, just talk about your plan, I will obey without any reason."

Zhao Xun absolutely trusts the head of the mountain, he believes that the head of the mountain is capable of protecting him.

Most importantly, Zhao Xun also wants to set an example for the brothers and sisters in the academy.

As long as he does this, the brothers and sisters will definitely follow suit.

Since then, the entire academy has been twisted into one rope, and it will have an advantage whether it is against the high priest of the Demon Sect or against other forces.

Emperor Xianlong felt a cramping pain in his stomach, and suddenly curled up into a ball, rolled over from the bed and rolled on the ground.

Pain, Emperor Xianlong felt unparalleled pain.

This kind of pain is something he has never felt in the past few decades.

Emperor Xianlong didn't know why he was in such pain, it was like someone had got into his stomach and kept poking it with a silver needle.

Emperor Xianlong was too uncomfortable, he was really weak.

He tried to call for help several times but was unsuccessful.

His vocal cords seemed hoarse and unable to make any sound.

No one was on duty in the palace at such a midnight time, this was a rule set by Emperor Xianlong.

One is that he is afraid that someone will disturb his rest, and the other is that he is afraid that someone will assassinate him.

Emperor Xianlong was a person who valued his own life more than anything else.

He had placed dozens of big beds in Zichen Hall alone.He would sleep in another bed every few days, so even the eunuchs and maids did not know where Emperor Xianlong slept that day.

In this way, the risk of being assassinated is avoided.

But at the same time, Emperor Xianlong also sacrificed some convenience.

For example, the guards and eunuchs were outside the main hall, so if he shouted in a lower voice, he might not be able to hear them.

Since then, every time Emperor Xianlong had to shout out in full spirit.

But this is obviously difficult to do when you are sick and weak.

Emperor Xianlong is very desperate now.

On the one hand, he was really in pain, and he shouted out tentatively.

But on the other hand, his hoarse vocal cords made his efforts come to naught.

It's really hard.

Emperor Xianlong felt that he was going crazy.

Finally, Emperor Xianlong realized something.

He crawled forward like a loach, his eyes fixed on a bell on the imperial bed.

The bell is tied to a yellow satin cord.

As long as Emperor Xianlong grasped the rope and shook it vigorously, the bell would make a sound.

And as long as the prince outside the Zichen Hall heard the sound, he would know that something must have happened to Emperor Xianlong.

At this time, the eunuch would rush into the hall without hesitation.

What seemed like a short road was a very long road for Emperor Xianlong at this moment.

Emperor Xianlong kept trying to move his body, but his body seemed extremely heavy as if it had been filled with lead.

How could this be?
Emperor Xianlong was very upset.

But he still didn't give up hope.

Because he knew that if he gave up everything at this time, it would be all over.

And if he didn't give up, there was hope.

His stomach was still in excruciating pain and would be in constant spasms.

Emperor Xianlong could only calculate the time, and crawled towards the dragon bed with all his strength between the two spasms.

As long as he climbs on the dragon bed, as long as he rings the bell, hope will come.

Closer, really closer.

Emperor Xianlong saw hope, he kept moving his body, and finally touched the yellow silk.

Emperor Xianlong shook the bell with the last bit of his strength.

The bell made a very light and incomparable sound.

Then the eunuch outside the main hall realized that there was a problem in the hall, and quickly trotted towards Emperor Xianlong.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you, Your Majesty? Come on, come on, pass on to the imperial doctor, quickly pass on to the imperial doctor. Why are you standing still, why don't you go and pass on to the imperial doctor."

A group of eunuchs panicked and ran towards the outside of the palace, and the palace was in a panic for a while.

Emperor Xianlong's sudden illness caused chaos in the palace.

The imperial physicians came in a group, but after some consultations, all of them were frowning.

They watch their eyes, their noses, their noses, and their hearts, and no one dares to speak first.

The reason is also very simple, whoever speaks first has to bear the responsibility.

And healing the emperor is no joke.

It would be fine if he was cured, but if anything went wrong with the treatment, it would be the crime of beheading.

Beheading is not bad, but if it implicates family members being ransacked and exterminated, it will be impossible to explain to the ancestors when they go underground.

None of the imperial doctors wanted to speak out first, which made the eunuch anxious.

The eunuchs knew very well that someone had to stand up at this time.

But Zheng Jie is not in the palace now, so he doesn't even have a decision.

Looking at His Majesty's sallow face, his condition is getting worse and worse.

Procrastinating like this is not an option after all.

"Yes, yes, please go and invite Master Huiyan. Master Huiyan is a master of cultivation. With Master Huiyan, His Majesty's illness will definitely be cured."

"Yes, with Master Huiyan here, everything will not be a problem."

Everyone has a lot of trust in Master Huiyan, mainly because His Majesty the Emperor also trusts him.

As the emperor's eagle dog, it is only natural for eunuchs to trust them.

A young eunuch hurried out.

But maybe he ran too fast and accidentally tripped over the threshold.

The threshold in the palace is high and thick.

After the little eunuch tripped and fell a dog gnawed mud, that was not counted, he just felt a sweetness in his throat, as if he had swallowed something.

Opening his mouth, the little eunuch was really taken aback.

It turned out that one of his front teeth was knocked out just like that.

And what he just swallowed should be nothing but blood.

The little eunuch almost passed out.

He was the most dizzy, looking at the blood flowing from the gap between his fingers, he felt dizzy for a while.

"what"

"Wake up, go report."

"Uh"

Only then did the little eunuch realize that he could not pass out now. His Majesty the Emperor was still in danger and might die at any time.

He had to get up quickly and report the news to Master Huiyan, asking Master Huiyan to come and save him quickly.

That's all, the little eunuch got up and walked all the way to Shanglinyuan.

At this moment, Master Huiyan is chanting scriptures and sitting in meditation.

As a top practitioner, Master Huiyan does not need to rest, or needs very little time to rest.

He can use the saved time to let himself go.

Master Huiyan knows that it is important to let go of oneself, which can enable a person to know himself better and allow a person to walk into his heart.

Only when a person can know himself well can he know the world well.

This is the point of view of Master Huiyan all along.

It was the same in the Western Regions, and it was the same in the Central Plains.

This is true among the people, and it is also true in the palace.

Master Huiyan is not likely to be affected by these external environments, because he has always looked inward, and he has always been looking inward.

Under the circumstances of this series of influences, he can still understand himself better, which is the reason why he has been able to maintain a good state for so many years.

And most of his opponents have inner demons, so the road of natural practice will be full of thorns.

Master Huiyan knows very well that if a person wants to defeat an opponent, he must first learn to defeat himself and his endless desires.

If you cannot overcome these desires, you may be backlashed by desires at any time.

Master Huiyan understands this very well, so he will continue to fight against the demons.

"Master Huiyan, Master Huiyan"

It was the familiar voice of the little eunuch again.

Master Huiyan frowned involuntarily.

It's so late, Emperor Xianlong will not let him give lectures again, right?
Recently, Emperor Xianlong has become obsessed with speaking scriptures late at night.

Master Huiyan himself is fine, but he is worried that Emperor Xianlong's body will not be able to bear it.

After all, this guy is just an ordinary person. Although he bears the name of an emperor, he is actually no better than ordinary people.

Even Emperor Xianlong's body had already been hollowed out because of his year-round indulging in wine and sex.

The reason why Master Huiyan told Emperor Xianlong that his body was different from ordinary people was mainly to arouse Emperor Xianlong's interest in cultivation.

But Master Huiyan didn't want Emperor Xianlong to cultivate immortality.

Cultivation and immortality are two completely different concepts. Although there is only a difference in one word, the meaning is far away.

The scope of practice is very wide, and very basic practice can be regarded as practice.

For example, the state of foundation building in practice, even a newcomer can reach this state after a little training.

Emperor Xianlong is now in the realm of foundation establishment.

But cultivating immortals is completely different.

To reach this state, one needs to go through layers of experience.

To put it simply, at least one must reach the realm of a great master.

With the talent of Emperor Xianlong, it is impossible to succeed in cultivating immortals in this life.

Alas, but Master Huiyan couldn't say these words to Emperor Xianlong.

Because he was still counting on relying on Emperor Xianlong to carry forward Tantric Buddhism in the Western Regions.

If he wanted to promote the Tantric Buddhism of the Western Regions in the Central Plains, he had to rely on the power of the imperial court, and he had to rely on Emperor Xianlong.

This is impossible.

Any attempt to circumvent the imperial court to promote religion is unrealistic.

Isn't the reason why Taoism is so prosperous because it has attached itself to the imperial court?
Without Yuan Tiangang, the great master of Zhou, would the Daoist sect be where it is today?

So what Master Huiyan has to do is to follow the law.

He doesn't feel ashamed, as long as he can seek development for Western Tantric Buddhism, he thinks it's worth it.

"Well, what happened? But Your Majesty wants the poor monk to give lectures?"

"No. Your Majesty, he suddenly passed out. The imperial doctors are helpless, so please go and have a look."

The little eunuch stomped his feet anxiously, and said in a crying voice.

"what!"

Master Huiyan, who has always been calm, couldn't help being surprised.

"What did you just say, His Majesty fainted?"

"Yes, I don't know what's going on, His Majesty suddenly passed out. The imperial doctors have treated them, but none of them can make up their minds. Go and have a look."

"Okay, poor monk, let's go."

In an instant, Master Huiyan's body jumped up, and he rushed out at a rapid speed.

In the past, he used to walk, but this time Master Huiyan used to fly.

Because he knew the situation was urgent.

Could it be that Emperor Xianlong took some kind of elixir, or something unclean, which caused him stomach cramps and passed out.

At this moment, he had to induce vomiting, so that Emperor Xianlong would spit out all the food he ate.

Only in this way can Emperor Xianlong be saved from danger.

When Master Huiyan felt the Zichen Palace, he found that Emperor Xianlong was lying on the dragon couch.

His face was sallow, his lips were tightly shut, and it was obvious that he had experienced great pain.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty, you fainted all of a sudden?"

Master Huiyan had to figure out the situation first, so that he could prescribe the right medicine.

"Uh, we don't know the specific situation of Master Huiyan. We only know that His Majesty rang the bell suddenly. When we rushed in, His Majesty had already passed out."

A young eunuch said very cautiously.

The reason why he is so cautious is mainly because there is a living man in the palace.

The duty of the living man is to record the words and deeds of the emperor and his courtiers, and compile them into living notes.

The daily life note is the key to the later compilation of history.

Eunuchs can also be regarded as close ministers.Once he said something that shouldn't be said but was recorded by Qi Jilang, it was no joke.

Master Huiyan naturally understood this, but he also knew very well that most of the eunuch really didn't know what happened.

It seems that if you want to find out the truth of the matter now, you have to wake up Emperor Xianlong first.

Master Huiyan walked up to Emperor Xianlong's palace without hesitation, pushed all the courtiers away, and then exhaled true energy with one palm.

I saw Emperor Xianlong floating up with him.

If it was done in this way, someone else would have been captured by the guards in the palace long ago.

But it was Master Huiyan who did this, so it was fine.

No one dared to disturb Master Huiyan, because he didn't know that His Majesty's life might be endangered by doing so.

Master Huiyan lifted Emperor Xianlong and forced out most of the true energy into Emperor Xianlong's body.

He didn't want to send true energy to Emperor Xianlong Du, but just wanted to force out the unclean things in Emperor Xianlong's body through this move.

Most of the true energy will eventually return to Master Huiyan's body.

"Well"

Sure enough, such a shocking and miraculous thing happened through Master Huiyan.

Emperor Xianlong let out a muffled snort, and actually woke up.

hiss.
Almost everyone gasped.

"My, where am I?"

Emperor Xianlong looked around blankly as if he had forgotten what happened just now.

When he saw that Master Huiyan was there, Emperor Xianlong asked in astonishment: "Holy monk?"

"Goodness, goodness, Your Majesty finally woke up. How does Your Majesty feel now?"

Master Huiyan tried his best to calm down his tone, so that Emperor Xianlong would not feel so excited after hearing it.

"I feel my brain is swollen, and my stomach is still aching."

Emperor Xianlong only felt that his mind was dizzy, and he could flash some fragments, but it was difficult for him to connect these fragments together.

"Well, it seems that His Majesty has indeed experienced a lot of things."

Master Huiyan didn't press Emperor Xianlong immediately, because he knew that what Emperor Xianlong needed most right now was time.

He wants to leave time for Emperor Xianlong, only in this way can Emperor Xianlong recover slowly and remember what happened before.

"Did Your Majesty eat something unclean? Like a pill or something?"

Master Huiyan knew that the Daoist sect liked to tinker with pills the most, so he often came up with alchemy gimmicks to trick the emperor.

But the emperor still likes this way the most.

No way, no emperor is not afraid of death.

Emperor Xianlong was no exception.

And if you want to live forever, the only thing you can try other than crossing the catastrophe and ascending is to swallow the elixir.

And it couldn't be easier for the emperor to swallow the elixir, and countless Taoist priests would scramble to give them the elixir.

As long as you eat one, the whole person can't stop.

But eating too much of this stuff can really kill you.

How many emperors died from swallowing pills.

However, Emperor Xianlong didn't take it as a warning and wanted to go all the way to the dark.

It seems that Master Huiyan still has a long way to go if he wants to completely replace the Taoist sect with the Tantric School of the Western Regions.

At least he must change Emperor Xianlong's view as soon as possible on the matter of taking the pill.

"I didn't take any pills."

Emperor Xianlong's answer was simple and straightforward, but it made Master Huiyan stunned.

Didn't take any pills?

Does that mean his judgment was wrong?
"Then why did His Majesty faint from a sudden stomachache?"

"I don't know either."

Emperor Xianlong was completely helpless.

What he eats every day will be strictly recorded and kept on file for inspection when necessary.

In the imperial palace, not only three meals a day, but also snacks at night would be tasted by eunuchs before him.

After making sure that there is no problem, the food will be given to him.

But obviously, there is indeed a problem this time.

"Maybe it's not the food, but the water?"

Master Huiyan proposed another possibility.

He knew of a poison that could be dissolved in water.

This kind of poison is colorless and odorless, and it is impossible to distinguish it on weekdays.

Even if an eunuch had tasted the water in advance, if it was dissolved afterwards, the eunuch would not be able to find out in time.

After all, it is impossible for the eunuch to taste the water every once in a while, the emperor would feel disgusted if he didn't feel disgusted.

Emperor Xianlong frowned.

He understood what Master Huiyan meant, and when he thought about it carefully, he also felt that it made sense.

"If that's the case, then who wants to harm me?"

Emperor Xianlong instinctively wanted to find out who the murderer was.

Judging from the direction of the most profit, the prince who made the most profit from killing Emperor Xianlong was the prince.

As long as the emperor dies, the prince can justifiably succeed to the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

But there is a problem, the prince is ready to launch a palace coup.Why did he make this moth so many times at this time?
Not only will this move not allow the prince to succeed in assuming the position, but it may also affect his original plan.

Because even if Emperor Xianlong was poisoned, as long as he was not poisoned to death, he would order a thorough investigation of the person who poisoned him, and he would even change his palace guards.In this way, the chances of the crown prince successfully launching the palace transformation will drop a lot.

So what's going on?Who is behind the murder?
Emperor Xianlong really couldn't figure it out.

As if seeing the worry in Emperor Xianlong's heart, Master Huiyan clasped his hands together and said, "It's so good. Since Your Majesty can't figure it out for a while, don't think about it for now. After the poor monk eliminates the residual poison for Your Majesty, Your Majesty can take a good rest. .It will not be too late for us to think about it when the Heavenly Energy is restored."

Master Huiyan's words can be said to have reached Emperor Xianlong's heart.

After hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really afraid that Master Huiyan would keep asking His Majesty and drive His Majesty into a frenzy.

After all, His Majesty is not a good tempered person.

He had just experienced being poisoned by someone, and no one would be in a good mood.

After Zhao Xun knew that he was going to be the bait, he completely lay flat.

Since it was a bait, it was naturally impossible to be too cautious.

Because in this case, the fish may be alert and will not take the bait.

The bait must have the self-cultivation of the bait, and you must dare to let it go.

At least Zhao Xun is still able to throw it out so far.

At this time, you must not lose face. It is by no means just talk, the disaster is endless.

As a bait, Zhao Xun knew that he had to show his face frequently.

Only in this way, the opponent will have the desire to launch a tentative attack.

And if Zhao Xun protected himself too well, the opponent would not have the idea of ​​attacking at all.

The high priest of the Mozong is actually a coward.

Zhao Xun had a deep understanding of this point when he fought against him in the dream.

At that time, Zhao Xun was only in the fifth-rank realm, and the high priest of the Demon Sect was also a super-rank master.

A great master invaded the dream of a fifth-grade practitioner, and even erased his own facial marks to make him a faceless man. Zhao Xun didn't know what to say.

Of course, in the end Zhao Xun recognized that this person was the High Priest of the Demon Sect himself.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Xun would not hesitate to look down on the High Priest of the Demon Sect.

So even if this guy's cultivation level is higher than his, Zhao Xun has nothing to be afraid of.

Because he knows everything is under control.

There is a mountain, let alone a high priest of the Demon Sect, so what if there are ten high priests of the Demon Sect added together.

Some things can not be effective simply by the number of heaps.

If the pile of quantity can have an effect, what else is there to do with quality.

"Little brother, if you really want to be a bait, you can't stay in the academy all the time. I think you have to go out of the mountain gate often and wander around other places in Zhongnan Mountain."

After the third brother Long Qingquan learned of the plan of the head of the mountain, he couldn't help making suggestions for Zhao Xun.

"In my opinion, Zhongnan Mountain is big or small. If the high priest of the Demon Sect really came to destroy the spirit veins, he would definitely meet you. Even if he didn't meet you at first, You can meet it in the end. You have to be brave, little junior brother, you are a student of the academy, you can't embarrass the head of the mountain or the academy."

Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan spoke so impassionedly that he couldn't beat Zhao Xun.

Good guy, why does it feel like he was counseled by the third senior brother?

In fact, Zhao Xun was not cowardly at all.

Originally, the head of the mountain also discussed with Zhao Xun in a discussing tone, but Zhao Xun agreed without hesitation.

In his opinion, this is the responsibility he needs to bear as a disciple of the academy.

But being said by the third senior brother, it seems that he agreed very reluctantly?
can't
Well, that's all, there's nothing to talk about with a brat like Third Senior Brother.

"Third Senior Brother, don't worry, I won't let you down. But I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to walk out of the academy. Because the old man asked me to stay in the academy obediently, because the high priest of the Mozong finally Will take the initiative to deliver to the door."

"Ok?"

Long Qingquan was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Will the high priest of the Demon Sect take the initiative to deliver it to your door?

Why does he not believe it?

"Little brother, are you lying to me?"

"Oh, third brother, look at what you said, why should I lie to you so well. These are the original words of the old man Shanzhang."

Zhao Xun really didn't lie to Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan about this matter.

The consideration of the old man is that the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain finally extended to the academy, or this section of the spiritual vein of the academy is the core of the spiritual vein of Zhongnan Mountain.

Therefore, no matter whether the high priest of the Mozong wanted to destroy the spiritual vein or steal the spiritual vein, he would inevitably come to the academy in the end.

Instead of Zhao Xun wandering around outside, it would be better to just stay in the academy and wait for the rabbit.

Since the other party will come to your door sooner or later, why bother.

Wouldn't it be nice to wait for work with ease?
And there is another point that is very important, the head of the mountain occupies the absolute initiative in the academy.

If it is outside, the head of the mountain will have time to rush there anyway.

In case Zhao Xun had any accident during this time, the head of the mountain would regret it.

So staying in the academy honestly is a good choice for Zhao Xun and the academy.

"But this is too boring. Junior brother, can you think of some ways to make it funny."

"Uh"

For a moment, Zhao Xun didn't know what to say.

The third brother is also such a big person, he can be said to be the boss, why is he so playful?

"Little brother? Little brother?"

Seeing that Zhao Xun didn't answer for a long time, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan urged him again and again.

"Well, there are actually some of them. Let's play chess."

"Playing chess? Playing chess is too boring."

"Third Brother, the game of chess I'm talking about is not Go."

"Not playing Go? What is that?"

"I call it auto chess."

"Auto Chess?"

The third senior brother Long Qingquan swallowed a mouthful of foam and said, "It sounds quite interesting. Tell me carefully."

"This self-propelled chess is to inject true energy into the chess pieces, so that the chess pieces have a certain ability to move automatically. They release skills according to the preset settings, but they have great randomness, and various permutations and combinations can occur. .In the end, whichever side's chess pieces can be left will win."

Zhao Xun felt that he had explained the situation concisely.

Third senior brother Long Qingquan is so powerful, he should be able to understand what he is talking about, right?
"Hmm, sounds like fun."

Long Qingquan became excited and clapped his hands like a child.

Facing such a giant baby, Zhao Xun couldn't laugh or cry.

There is no way, who said that the third brother's seniority is high.

In the academy, high seniority is the last word.

What Zhao Xun can do now is to follow the wishes of the third senior brother.

"Well, Third Senior Brother, I probably have explained the meaning clearly, and the rest are some details."

Zhao Xun took a deep breath and said, "Senior brother, do you have any favorite chess pieces, or particularly favorite skills, I can add them in."

"Well"

The third brother Long Qingquan scratched his head and said: "There are some, just wait a moment, let me think about it."

The third brother Long Qingquan thought hard for a while, then slapped his head and said: "Do you have the ability to create illusions, that is, clones. Can you instantly create some illusions like the deity?"

Zhao Xun thought Long Qingquan would say something, so this is it?
It's all left over.

"Of course, I have written down this skill, so I will write it in."

Zhao Xun talked eloquently.

"and many more!"

"what happened again?"

"Junior brother, I invented this skill, should I name it? Or maybe this chess piece is called Long Qingquan."

"Uh"

I have to say that the third senior brother is really good at playing.

Auto Chess is named after itself, is this the rhythm of endorsement?

"Okay, third senior brother will follow what you say."

Anyway, this auto chess is made to make the third senior brother happy, so as long as the third senior brother is happy.

"Well, the other chess pieces have to be carefully designed, so that we can decide whether the auto chess is fun or not."

The third senior brother, Long Qingquan, was suddenly aroused, and he held his chin and thought carefully.

"Well, it can be like this, and then this."

Seeing the third senior brother Long Qingquan gesticulating here, Zhao Xun felt extremely amused.

As expected of the third senior brother, although the creativity is not very good, but he is very enthusiastic to participate.

That's enough.

As long as you can participate in it and have fun.

It took Zhao Xun several hours to finalize all the skills of all the chess pieces with the third brother Long Qingquan.

The next step is to drive out all these chess pieces.

At this time, I had to call Tenth Senior Brother.

Although Xu Rong, the tenth senior brother, is a simple person, he is undoubtedly very talented in making objects.

With ten senior brothers around, it is not easy to make many objects.

Just like paper figurines, if tenth senior brother claims that the paper figurine he made is number two in the world, no one would dare to call himself number one in the world.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect that you are not only smart, but also good at understanding people and making good use of them. If you become the emperor, you must be a good emperor."

Although he knew that the words of the third brother Long Qingquan were a joke, Zhao Xun spread his hands and said: "I think it's better to forget it, being an emperor is so boring. I have no interest at all. I have to do everything all day long." Being stared at by a group of courtiers, anyone who is a bit out of line will be sprayed as a fool. You say that if you are really a fool like Emperor Xianlong, you will recognize it. But you have done nothing and you have to take the blame for no reason , I can't bear it."

"Haha, Junior Brother, you are such an interesting person."

"By the way, let's hurry up and find Senior Brother Ten. Make this auto chess piece earlier so that we can play earlier."

"That's true."

On this point, Long Qingquan reached a consensus with Zhao Xun.

They are very good at taking a break from their busy schedule.

But they said that the two found the tenth senior brother Xu Rong in a hurry.

Xu Rong was doing carpentry work beside the bamboo grove at the moment, his expression was so focused that he didn't even realize that Zhao Xun and Long Qingquan were coming.

It wasn't until Long Qingquan appeared behind Xu Rong and patted him that Xu Rong was so frightened that he jumped up instinctively.

"Third Senior Brother? Junior Junior Brother? Why are you here?"

Long Qingquan poked his nose and said: "Tenth Junior Brother, tell me that you are either making paper figurines or carpentry all day long, isn't it too boring? I think it's better for people to have more hobbies. Your little junior brother and I have recently figured out a new game called auto chess. To put it simply, it is to think of some skills for each chess piece, and then pour the skills into it with true energy. But here comes the problem , this requires finished chess pieces. In this academy, you are the only one who is the best at carpentry. So we are here to hope that you can help me make some wooden chess pieces."

"Oh, it looks like this. It's simple."

Senior Brother Hanhan Shi scratched his head, and said with a hey smile, "Third Senior Brother, just look after it, I will be able to make the chess piece soon. Do you have any specific requirements? For example, shape and size?"

"Uh, you have to ask my junior brother about this."

When it comes to specific issues, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan acts as a hands-off shopkeeper and throws the issue to Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun had already seen the strangeness, and said with a chuckle: "Senior Brother Ten, the size is just right, I think it is a little bigger than chess. It can't be too big, if it is too big, the chessboard needs to be made very big, but It can’t be too small either. If it’s too small, you can’t see clearly when Auto Chess releases its skills, and it won’t be interesting.”

"Uh, okay, let's make it bigger than chess, right? What about the shape? Are there any requirements for the shape?"

"this one"

In fact, in terms of the shape of Zhao Xun's heart, he really had a lot of requirements.But considering the actual situation now, if he explained all these clearly to the tenth senior brother, he would have to draw a lot of drawings.

This workload is not a joke, if it goes on like this, it will exhaust you to death.

So it's better to simplify and simplify.

Just try to make it a general chess piece.

Anyway, Auto Chess focuses on skills and special effects. As for the appearance of chess pieces, it is not so important.

"Just make it into a round pie shape like chess. If we want to improve later, we can improve it at any time."

After Zhao Xun finished speaking, tenth senior brother Xu Rong nodded slightly.

"Okay, then I will start to make according to your requirements. I will send the chess pieces to your house tomorrow morning."

Good guy, Zhao Xun heard the words, and he called him an expert in his heart.

Senior Brother Ten is really a dedicated talent.

It was hard for him to imagine that a person would be as dedicated as Senior Brother Ten.

"Then ten senior brothers have worked hard. After you make this auto chess piece, I will treat you to a big meal."

As soon as he heard that there was a big meal to eat, the corners of Hanhan Shixiong's mouth began to droole.

After all, Zhao Xun's cooking skills have been professionally certified in the academy.

With such superb cooking skills, the taste of the big meal will definitely not be bad.

The tenth senior brother was convinced in an instant.

"That's good, that's good, I'm waiting for my junior brother's big meal."

Even the third senior brother Long Qingquan swallowed his spit.

What exactly is the junior brother's big meal?
Could it be another new dish that was researched?

To be honest, the dishes made by the younger brother are basically not repetitive, and each one can have so many new ideas.

Alas, if only he could pick up the dishes at his fingertips like the junior brother.

That's all, since you don't have the ability in this area, then you should recognize yourself.

Anyway, there is a junior cooking at the side, Long Qingquan just needs to be a cook in peace.

"Junior brother, you have to work harder. I'm also waiting for your big meal."

The third senior brother finally expressed his opinion.

Zhao Xun knew it would happen to the third senior brother, so he smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, third senior brother, the big meal I will make will not only be enough for you and the tenth senior brother, but also cover the entire academy. I will definitely take care of it when the time comes." It is enough to ensure that you will enjoy eating and eat happily."

Upon hearing this, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan was delighted, nodded in satisfaction and said, "Young Junior Brother still understands me. Forget it, just follow what you said. I'll wait for your big meal."

Emperor Xianlong has basically recovered from the illness, and his memory has also recovered a lot.

Master Huiyan preliminarily judged that someone had invaded Emperor Xianlong's sea of ​​consciousness, rather than poisoning Emperor Xianlong.

Because the imperial doctor did not detect any toxins in the food residues, feces, and urine eaten by Emperor Xianlong.

And if Emperor Xianlong was poisoned, even if the colorless and odorless poison was dissolved in the water, it would definitely remain in Emperor Xianlong's feces and urine afterwards.

So that person invaded Emperor Xianlong's Sea of ​​Consciousness in order to cause him the illusion of pain, making him think that he had a severe stomach pain.But in fact, what he suffered was only his brain.

Who can invade the imperial palace swaggeringly, avoid numerous restrictions and masters in the imperial palace, and do this?
Master Huiyan couldn't figure it out.

But there is one thing, this person must have great hatred with Emperor Xianlong, otherwise he would not have tried his best to kill him.

"Your Majesty, the poor monk should temporarily stay in the Zichen Palace during this time. Firstly, it will be more convenient to lecture with His Majesty, and secondly, he can also guard His Majesty. In this way, no one will dare to disturb His Majesty's peace."

"This"

Emperor Xianlong seemed somewhat hesitant upon hearing this.

Although Master Huiyan is a monk, he is still an adult male after all.

There has never been a precedent for adult men other than the emperor to stay overnight in the palace.

Not only is there no precedent in this dynasty, but there is also no precedent in the future.

Even though Master Huiyan didn't have anything to do with his concubines, his words are formidable. Emperor Xianlong didn't want his courtiers or common people to talk about his private life.

So even though Emperor Xianlong was very fond of Master Huiyan, he always arranged for Master Huiyan to live in Shanglin Garden, north of Daming Palace.

In this way, once he needs Master Huiyan to give a lecture, he can call for it nearby.

No one will chew their tongues.

But today's situation is indeed a bit special.

Someone had already sneaked into the palace, and escaped numerous guards and restrictions to invade his sea of ​​consciousness.

Now Emperor Xianlong was able to understand what the Sea of ​​Consciousness meant.

Thinking of his sea of ​​consciousness being invaded, controlled or even destroyed by others, Emperor Xianlong felt angry.

Who would dare to be so arrogant and arrogant, risking the displeasure of the world.

If Master Huiyan hadn't arrived in time, Emperor Xianlong might have been played to death.

But Master Huiyan was able to come in time once, but he couldn't come in time every time.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xianlong felt a headache.

How to do?
He now faces a very difficult choice.

If he chooses to let Master Huiyan live in the Zichen Palace, he must be prepared to bear rumors.

Are these things he can afford?
The mouths of scholars are getting dirtier one by one.

If they were allowed to spray around there, Emperor Xianlong might really not be able to bear it.

But even if he is the emperor, he can't stop the mouth of the world.

But this kind of palace affairs is what these guys are most interested in.

Emperor Xianlong felt that he was going crazy.

"His Majesty?"

Seeing that Emperor Xianlong did not speak for a long time, Master Huiyan asked tentatively from the side.

"Uh, let me think about it again."

Emperor Xianlong felt a pain in his head.

He really can't make a decision.Because it seems that whatever he decides to look imperfect.

Pacing up and down in the hall with his hands behind his back, Emperor Xianlong seemed to want to relieve the pressure in this way.

Master Huiyan didn't realize what Emperor Xianlong was worried about, because he didn't think in that direction at all.

He would never have thought that Emperor Xianlong was worried that he would fornicate the harem.

He is a monk, and he would never do such a thing.

If he knew how to observe his mind, he would definitely pat his chest to guarantee Emperor Xianlong at this moment.

After a long silence, Emperor Xianlong, who looked like a gourd, finally let out a long sigh: "Forget it, Master Huiyan will stay in the palace for the time being, um, just live in the side hall."

In the end, after a fierce ideological struggle, Emperor Xianlong still valued life more.

Compared with it, face seems insignificant.

Face is something that cannot be eaten.

As for the guy who is eating, the thing on his neck cannot be taken off no matter what.

Emperor Xianlong is the emperor, and he has everything in his hands, but he has to make sure that he is still alive.

"The poor monk complies."

Seeing that Emperor Xianlong finally let go, Master Huiyan clasped his hands together and saluted.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, there is a poor monk here, and no one in this world dares to hurt a single hair of His Majesty."

The reason why Master Huiyan dared to utter such harsh words was because he knew that the intruder was definitely not the head of the mountain.

If it was the head of the mountain, he would not use such a sneaky way, but would rush straight to take Emperor Xianlong's life.

Even if it is the head of the mountain, Master Huiyan may not necessarily lose.

He has always wanted to challenge the head of the mountain but has never had the chance. It would be a pleasure if he could have a quick fight in the palace.

Lunka, King of the Kingdom of Shaz, looked at the representatives of various countries in the hall with a proud look on his face.

This is the advantage of being the leader of the alliance, you can call the ministers of various countries to discuss matters at will.

In fact, he did not have the power to issue orders to these courtiers.

"You must already know the specific situation. This king wants to form this alliance to fight against the Anxi Army and the Great Zhou Dynasty. We once drove the Anxi Army to the sandbar, but because of a momentary carelessness, the ship capsized in the gutter. Now the Anxi Army The main force of the army has left the Western Regions for Chang'an. At this time, we must not hesitate. We must immediately join forces to expel and kill the old, weak and remnants of the Anxi Army stationed in the Western Regions. We must show our fists, show our blood, and tell everyone Zhouren and us are not easy to bully."

King Lenka had already prepared this rhetoric, and at this moment, he just said it out of his head.

But his deliberate exaggeration made these words sound very real.

For a while, the representatives of the countries in the Western Regions began to discuss.

This is exactly what King Renka wants to see.

As long as there are discussions, there will be arguments, and as long as there are arguments, there needs to be someone who stands up and makes a decision.

And he was the one who finally stood up and made the call.Because he is the initiator of this alliance and the leader of this alliance.
