Chapter 58 Climbing the Building and the Demon

After everyone returned to Chang'an City early in the morning, they went straight to Daming Palace.

According to the agreement, Jia Xingwen and Wangcai first returned to the bad person's office to report their orders, while Zhao Xun and Wu Quanyi went to Qin Tianjian to ask Yuan Tiangang for assistance.

At first, Zhao Xun felt that it was a problem for his mentor Wu Quanyi to be banned from entering and leaving the palace. After all, his mentor did not have a court establishment, let alone the palace city, even the imperial city would be difficult to enter.

But then Zhao Xun was slapped in the face, Wu Quanyi, Daoist of Qinglian, took out a golden waist card, which was a one-word pass to enter and exit the imperial city and the palace city, with this thing, you can travel unimpeded in the palace.

Zhao Xun asked cheekily: "Men, where did you get this waist card?"

Wu Quanyi rolled his eyes at him and said: "My little uncle is the majestic supervisor of the Qintian Supervisor, so it's not too much for me to ask for a waist card?"

Zhao Xun murmured in his heart, it seems that the image of Yuan Tiangang is not as tall as he imagined, and things like favoritism cannot be avoided.

The two masters and apprentices entered the Daming Palace one after the other after the Jinwu Guard inspected the waist cards.

The location of Qintianjian is very good, adjacent to Yushitai and Zongzheng Temple.

Compared with the deserted office of bad people, the smoke here is very heavy.

Wu Quanyi took the lead and walked in the front, and the two little Taoist boys on duty in front of the building saluted after seeing him: "I have met Daoist Qinglian."

"That's all, there's no need to be too polite. Where's the supervisor?"

Wu Quanyi looked very anxious.

"This"

The two little Taoist boys showed embarrassment.

Wu Quanyi realized it in his heart, stopped talking, and stepped into the Huntian Tower.

Zhao Xun didn't hesitate, and followed after walking.

This is the first time he has come to Qin Tianjian, and the first time he has entered the Hun Tian Tower.

In general, this building gives people a very magical feeling.

Different from ordinary pavilions and pavilions, Huntian Tower seems to emphasize the so-called unity of man and nature.

The whole building is in the style of a six-sided pagoda, with a total height of seven floors, and the overall structure is a spiral structure.

A seven-story building may not be a big deal in later generations, but it was a sky-high project in the Zhou Dynasty.

You must know that even the Zichen Palace where Emperor Xianlong lived was not much higher than the Huntian Tower.

This is also one of the prerogatives of Qin Tianjian. The construction of tall and large yamen in the imperial city and even the palace city needs special approval from the emperor.

Qin Tianjian has a reputation for observing the sky, and it is justifiable to build the Huntian Tower taller.

Wu Quanyi is a second-rank practitioner, he has a lot of breath, and he can climb the stairs in one go.

Zhao Xun did not go so smoothly.

He could clearly feel the oppression from the outside atmosphere.

There are restrictions in the Mansion Tower.

It's normal to think about it carefully, after all, this is the most mysterious place in the Great Zhou Empire, how can ordinary people set foot there easily.

Zhao Xun worked hard to use his grand energy to break through the blockade of the outside atmosphere. Although it was very difficult, he could continue to climb the stairs.

Beads of sweat trickled down his neck, and his breathing became much faster.

But Zhao Xun didn't stop.

He knew that this was an important test for him, and if he could break through the blockade, he would definitely be able to advance to a higher level.

just
Zhao Xun's eyes darkened as he crawled, as if he had entered a void environment.

It was somewhat similar to the scene when he saw Haoran Academy for the first time in the Sea of ​​Consciousness, but it was not the same.

An old man with white beard and hair stood on a floating stone slab and stared silently at Zhao Xun.

After a long time, he spoke.

"What is your demon?"

Zhao Xun was slightly taken aback, not knowing how to answer.

My demon?

This question is really difficult to answer.

If it was in the previous life, Zhao Xun's inner demon should be making money.

As a liberal arts dog, after graduating, he stayed in a big city to work hard, and applied for a copywriting design in a cultural company.996 every day is for promotion and salary increase, to win Bai Fumei, and to reach the pinnacle of life.

But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is the backbone.

It's been almost ten years since he graduated, but Zhao Xun's life hasn't changed much.Except that the salary is not increasing, everything else is going up.

Prices and rent are like two mountains pressing on Zhao Xun's shoulders, making him breathless.

The sun and the moon shine, and there is nothing all year round. He can't save money at all.

Zhao Xun was introduced by relatives to get married twice, but the woman immediately issued a good person card after knowing that Zhao Xun had no house.

Since then, Zhao Xun has been disheartened and devoted himself to creation.

Literary creation was his last straw.He expects that he can write a hit and bestseller, make money, and change his destiny.

So making money should be the demon of his previous life, right?
Before he could answer, the surrounding scene changed drastically.

This is the ICU ward of a hospital.

His father suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the ICU ward for emergency treatment.When Zhao Xun arrived, he could only watch through the window as the doctors were busy operating the defibrillator and doing cardiopulmonary resuscitation for his father.

In the end, his father rescued him, but his body became very weak and needed someone to take care of him.

Zhao Xun couldn't afford to hire a nurse and nanny, so he gritted his teeth and quit his job in desperation, and stayed by his father's side every day to take care of him.

Writing became his only income.
Zhao Xun felt as if his head was about to explode, and then the scene changed again.

This time, he was in a funeral home.

His father was in a car accident while out for a walk and was not rescued.

Zhao Xun lost his dearest relative forever.

Zhao Xun didn't have the money to hold a grand funeral, so he could only stare at the coffin in the funeral home in a daze.

After the simple cooking of his father's funeral, Zhao Xun burst into tears.

After crying, he wiped away his tears and found a new job.

The salary in this job is even lower than the previous one, but I can barely pay the rent to make ends meet.

Zhao Xun started his day-to-day, mechanical 996 life again.

Why are you making me watch this?
Zhao Xun couldn't figure it out.

Why should I be reminded of these painful things?

"So what is your demon?"

The voice sounded again.

Zhao Xun shouted without hesitation this time: "Money, I want to make money!"

The old man with white beard and hair shook his head and sighed, "No."

Immediately after he waved his whisk, the environment around Zhao Xun changed again.

This time Zhao Xun was in Zhangjing Temple, and the four Dongyue swordsmen joined forces to attack him, each move full of killing intent.

In the desperate situation, Zhao Xun unleashed amazing power, the aura of arrogance lingered all over his body, and with his aura attached to the fish-machine knife, he defeated the Dongyue swordsman.

Before Zhao Xun had time to react, he came to the main hall of the Taoist temple in Zhongnan Mountain again.

In the gloomy and cramped environment, several corpses and skeletons rushed towards him, and he was dazzled by the technique of flying into the sky and escaping from the ground.

Zhao Xun struggled to support, even to the point of exhaustion.

In the end, his mentor Wu Quanyi arrived in time to save him from danger.

"So, tell me, what is your inner demon?"

The old man with white beard and hair asked for the third time.
