Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Chapter 212 It’s broken, my master is useless

To put it bluntly, Wei Yan only came out to rob passers-by when the harvest was not good. In case of emergency, he did not ask for money, but mostly just food.

To a certain extent, they are no different from beggars.

It is precisely because of this that Wei Yan can have his own bottom line.

Otherwise, they would have starved to death long ago if they lived like this.

Although I don’t know who to join, it’s still early and there’s still time to wait until after the New Year to find someone.

……

Not far away, Qin Tian couldn't help but feel interesting when he heard Wei Yan's words.

But he didn't expect that Wei Yan finally embarked on the path of joining the army because of himself.

The wonderful sense of history made Qin Tian very interesting at this moment.

Qin Tian was in a happy mood, but Mu Chun on the other side was unhappy.

"Why are you unhappy?" Qin Tian couldn't help but rub his pouted mouth, Mu Chun, and said in amusement.

Mu Chun seemed a little unhappy from the beginning. If Qin Tian hadn't held him down, he might have revealed his true form long ago.

"Those people are not good." Muchun said a little unhappy.

"They are disrespectful to Master, damn it!"

Qin Tian did not expect that Muchun would be angry because of such a thing.

According to his understanding of Mu Chun, if the target of these people is Mu Chun himself, he is afraid that Mu Chun will not bother to pay attention to these people.

He doesn't even care about the life and death of ordinary people, so how can he care about these people's offenses against him?

To Muchun, these people are just ants on the roadside. Who cares whether the ants on the roadside are disrespectful to him or insulting him?

But it won't work when the target is changed to Qin Tian.

Muchun could tolerate these ants offending him, but he could never tolerate these people offending Qin Tian.

If Qin Tian hadn't noticed Mu Chun's strange movement and held him down just now, Mu Chun would have revealed his true form and sprayed all these people to death in one breath.

"They are just ordinary people, struggling for a bite to eat. Why should you care?"

Qin Tian smiled and said: "Don't blame those who don't know, don't blame those who don't know."

They didn't know Qin Tian's identity or his abilities. They just treated Qin Tian the same way they treated other people, and of course Qin Tian didn't care.

It's just that Muchun has always been worried about it, and obviously can't let it go easily.

The rest of the trip was uneventful.

Every time they arrive in a city, one person, one tiger and one dragon will stay for a few days to see the scenery along the way.

Perhaps because the Chinese New Year is approaching, many cities are gradually becoming lively.

Soon Muchun was attracted by various lively scenes and forgot the previous unhappiness.

Among them, the ones that make Muchun feel lingering the most are the temple fairs in various places.

The original temple fair originated from the ancestral temple community system in ancient times.

In the beginning, this was actually more like a sacrificial activity and had little to do with ordinary people.

In order to seek the blessings of their ancestors and gods, ancestors often sacrificed to their ancestors in palaces or houses and had conversations with them.

However, simple sacrifices are still a bit monotonous, so gradually, in order to enhance the atmosphere on the day of sacrifices, people will also perform some wonderful songs and dances to increase the atmosphere.

This kind of singing and dancing is social opera, also known as temple fair opera, and the temple fair was formed from this.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, with the progress of society, the development of productive forces, and the rise of Taoism and Confucianism, this kind of activity gradually spread to the whole society, and even ordinary people could participate.

At this time, temple fairs were still only held on major festivals, and temple fairs were often only held in various temples and Taoist temples.

Temple fairs during this period were mostly activities held by Taoism and Buddhism to expand their influence.

Large-scale temple fairs only appear during major festivals, but some small temple fairs, or Qin Tian prefers to call them gatherings, are quite common.

Going to the market, often referred to as "going to the market" in later generations, also gradually took shape during this period.

As soon as there were more people, it became lively. The buskers walking in the streets and the people holding various handmade products hoping to exchange for some money all brought a bit of popularity to the gathering.

Especially as the New Year is approaching, many people need to buy New Year goods to prepare for the New Year, or seize the time to earn more money before the New Year in the hope of having a good New Year.

Among them, the most attractive ones to Mu Chun were the jugglers.

During this period, acrobatics was also called Jiaodian Opera, or Baixi.

Various acrobatic illusions such as finding tripods, searching for pegs, swallowing knives, spitting fire, etc. have become popular, and there are often various singing and dancing performances.

Although the other things were interesting, what attracted Muchun's most attention was the acrobatic act of spitting fire and swallowing knives.

Especially the spitting of fire made Mu Chun very jealous.

Muchun is a water attribute, and his fire training has never been adequate.

She can set off huge waves like mountains and oceans, but it takes a lot of effort to conjure up a small cluster of flames.

Therefore, the acrobat's spitting fire was not too powerful in Mu Chun's eyes!

The Tao method that Qin Tian practiced was researched by himself, and coincided with the five elements and the numbers of the four seasons.

For Qin Tian, ​​metal, wood, water, fire and earth are all at his fingertips, and his spells will change in various ways according to the different seasons.

But Muchun is different. Her power is strongest in spring, and because she is a snake, she usually falls into hibernation in winter.

Although she can no longer hibernate after becoming a dragon, her snake nature still makes her lazy and unwilling to move much in the winter.

Therefore, it was supposed to be a strong winter, but it was difficult for Mu Chun to exert his full strength due to his nature.

Among the four seasons of the year, only spring is when she is most active.

Due to insufficient training in fire magic, she often loses interest in summer.

In comparison, Lingxia does not have so many restrictions.

She is of the fire genus, and although she will be lazy in spring and winter due to various reasons, she does not have as many restrictions as Mu Chun.

Muchun has always been very troubled by this.

She really wanted to practice her fire skills well, but in many cases, such things were not based on the practitioner's wishes.

If you can't practice it, you can't practice it.

Even if he followed Qin Tian's method of using five elements and one method, using water to create wood and fire, it would not work.

Every time when the critical moment comes, the success will fall short.

One can imagine how attracted Mu Chun is to those who can breathe out fire just by taking a sip of water.

Since she didn't have enough training in the fire method, she couldn't achieve the step of creating fire from earth.

On the contrary, it is because metal generates water, and her water method is extremely good, so the metal method is also analogous, and her practice is also very good.

Only the fire method was stuck, and Mu Chun was stuck for who knows how long.

What was most strange to Muchun was why these people could spit fire after just taking a sip of water. Water and fire are obviously in conflict with each other, right?

Every time she saw someone spitting fire, she would watch for a long time, trying to figure out the secret.

Qin Tian couldn't help laughing when he saw this.

In the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he finally told Muchun that what was in those mouths was not water, but special fuel.

These things are very flammable and are essentially two completely different things from water.

Muchun was still a little confused.

"Then how can they breathe fire?"

Muchun was a little sad: "I have been practicing for hundreds of years and I can't learn it, but they can learn it in just a few years. Am I stupid?"

Qin Tian laughed dumbly: "How could that happen?"

"Them spitting fire and you spitting fire are two completely different things. How can they be compared?"

Seeing that Mu Chun was still a little unhappy, Qin Tian had no choice but to reveal to Mu Chun the secret of these acrobats being able to spit fire.

Qin Tian transformed into the same fuel as the acrobat, gave Muchun a fire stick, and asked her to spray mist according to the method of those people.

A ball of blazing flames appeared instantly, almost igniting Lingxia's hair in Mu Chun's arms. Lingxia screamed in fright and jumped down from Mu Chun's arms.

After figuring out the secret of those people spitting fire, Muchun not only did not relax, but his mood became even lower.

She felt that ordinary people without any cultivation could use external objects to do things that she could not do after hundreds of years of cultivation, which made her even more stupid.

Qin Tian couldn't laugh or cry about this.

"No need to belittle yourself, everyone has something they are good at."

Qin Tian comforted him: "It's already very rare for you to cultivate from a snake to a dragon now. Why do you care about these details?"

"If you really compare, I'm afraid these people will have a hard time catching up with you in their cultivation even if they practice all their lives."

“There’s no need to compare what you’re not good at with what others are good at.”

After hearing what Qin Tian said, Muchun's mood finally improved and he was no longer depressed because of this kind of thing.

However, this also inspired her fighting spirit, and she vowed to practice hard and strive to understand the principle of the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements as soon as possible.

Since Lingxia was better at fire magic, Muchun even started asking Lingxia for advice on how to practice fire magic.

This time it was very painful for Lingxia.

She always liked to be lazy, and the practice under Qin Tian's supervision had made her miserable. When Mu Chun opened the book like this, she suddenly couldn't stand it.

Compared with Muchun, Lingxia's progress in cultivation couldn't be any further behind.

Not to mention that the five elements are mutually reinforcing each other, she still doesn't understand the fire technique very well.

How could she teach Mu Chun something she couldn't understand herself?

Many times she relied on instinct to cast spells, and she didn't know what to do. Anyway, when her mind came to her, the fire spell came out naturally.

This obviously cannot meet the needs of late spring.

Under Muchun's pressure, Lingxia had to start studying and practicing seriously and figure out how to use the Five Elements method.

Qin Tian was happy to see such a situation arise.

This little greedy cat is the typical naughty student in school.

Before, Qin Tian didn't care about her. She still knew how to cultivate, but now it's better to take care of her. If he can be lazy, he can be lazy.

On weekdays, cultivation depends entirely on the supervision of Senior Sister Muchun, otherwise I would just skip out if I can.

Qin Tian had no choice but to really force her to practice.

He's just not that kind of person.

Now that he has a stern senior sister to help him control this ineffective young disciple, Qin Tian can relax a lot.

Mu Chun's supervision was of great use, especially since both of them were demon cultivators. Compared with Qin Tian, ​​Mu Chun was obviously better able to understand the difficulties Ling Xia encountered while practicing.

Qin Tian's guidance to Lingxia and Muchun was based on the essence of the problem.

The advantage of this high-level guidance method is that it can go straight to the source of the road and save them from many detours.

But the disadvantage is that it requires so many billions of insights.

What Qin Tian taught them was the method of cultivation and told them what the essence of the Great Dao was, but he would not tell them how to practice specifically.

To put it bluntly, Qin Tian taught them methods and the truth on how to solve problems.

However, they still need to learn and apply the various problems encountered during cultivation and use the tools they learned from Qin Tian to solve these problems.

A very interesting phenomenon will occur.

In Qin Tian's view, the problems they encountered were not problems at all. Isn't this a very simple matter?

As long as you understand the nature of the Dao, even if you only have a rough understanding of it, these problems will naturally be solved.

But Lingxia and Muchun looked different.

From their perspective, especially Ling Xia's dim head, it is easy for questions such as how this can be solved so easily.

But now that Muchun and she were communicating with each other, the two scumbags got together, and a wonderful chemical reaction actually occurred.

Caibi understood Caibi best, and the questions Lingxia encountered during his practice could not be more familiar to Mu Chun.

She was troubled by these problems for a long time when she was practicing, and it took her many years to think about them before she could figure them out.

So faced with the difficulties Lingxia encountered in her practice, Muchun was able to quickly provide the best solution.

Faced with the problem, Qin Tian gave him the tools to solve the problem and then directly came to the conclusion.

Mu Chun was equivalent to telling Ling Xia the problem-solving process. The difficulty of the two was naturally different.

Soon, Lingxia's progress in cultivation also solved some of the problems that Muchun encountered when practicing spells.

Before, Lingxia knew this but didn't know why, but after Muchun's troublesome treatment, she was able to tell a few things.

One of the two people practiced the fire method, and the other practiced the water method. Although they were incompatible with each other, the five elements were in harmony with each other. When the two phases were verified, the two's cultivation speed turned out to be thousands of miles a day!

This time Qin Tian really couldn't help but smile.

It's enough for you two to practice together, and you don't need me as a master at all, right?

Before the two of them came together to practice, they often came to Qin Tian with various questions.

Every time Qin Tian explained to them, it would take them a long time to gradually understand the true meaning of what Qin Tian said.

After a tiger and a dragon got together, there was no need to ask Qin Tian about the problem. The two of them could discuss it together for a day and a night and they could solve it.

Because every time Qin Tian explains the truth, it points directly to the origin of the Dao. In many cases, just one sentence is enough for them to take a big step forward in their cultivation.

Many times, Qin Tian only needs one sentence, which is enough for the two little guys to confirm each other's cultivation for ten days and a half.

Apart from giving guidance in the general direction, Qin Tian has no other use.

At first Qin Tian felt a little helpless, but soon he no longer felt that way.

What does it mean for a disciple to be a cultivator automatically? It means that he is a good teacher!

Thinking of this, Qin Tian didn't mind anymore and happily watched these two little guys practicing hard every day.
