Dao fruit.

With a flash of light, Qiu Yan suddenly felt the movement of the soil on the soles of his feet, and knew that it was Chen Yun who used the method of moving. If he aroused his heart and mind at this time and interfered with the spiritual energy, he would immediately destroy the operation of this method from the inside.

"This Chen Yun's cultivation level is not low, and he can cast spells with his body, at least he is also a soul cultivator, comparable to a god."

Qiu Yan didn't react to this, and let this force drive him to move, and at the same time, he separated his perception and felt the changes in the surrounding aura.

This kind of change is very complicated, even ordinary monks can hardly find anything from it, but Qiu Yan's god body can analyze it with the help of incense and mind, and after some time, he can determine the moving route through the change of spiritual energy.

"From the flow of spiritual energy and the increasing thick aura around it, we can probably judge that this teleportation formula does not travel on flat ground, but moves everyone underground. It seems that the place to go is somewhere underground. place."

These thoughts flashed through Qiu Yan's mind, and then the scene before his eyes changed——

The woods are gone, replaced by a dilapidated ancestral hall. The light in the hall is dim, but there is still a faint light that allows people to distinguish objects. The light source is a few candlesticks on the altar.

It didn't take long to move this time, it was just Qiu Yan's effort to change his mind.

The candlesticks are filled with wax, and the candles are flickering.

Qiu Yan collected his senses and looked at the ancestral hall in front of him.

This ancestral hall looks not small, but more than half of it has collapsed. The ground is covered with huge gravel and layers of soil. Judging from the thick layer of dust on it, it is quite old.

While Qiu Yan was looking around, Lu Daoren and Tao Ying were also looking around.He didn't care about Chen Yun's methods at all.

Needless to say, people from the road, outsiders are no strangers to the technique of moving and moving, but Tao Ying also seems to be familiar with it, but.This official in the post of county magistrate, his complexion is not too good, his face is sallow, and his steps are a bit sloppy when he walks.

Qiu Yan glanced at it, and knew that this was a sequela caused by high-speed movement, similar to the motion sickness he had seen in his previous life.

"This Tao Ying is in a trance because of the teleportation, it seems that she has never practiced before."

Qiu Yan already had a rough idea of ​​this point, just now when he was observing Tao Ying in the forest.It was found that his body was weak.Although there is authority.But Qi and blood are not strong, even if you look in good spirits, it is just a way to keep in good health.

He noticed Qiu Yan's gaze.Tao Ying snorted coldly and turned her head away.

What Qiu Yan said in the forest just now didn't save Tao Ying any face. He directly revealed the plan between him and Chen Jing, and directly reprimanded Tao Ying without any concealment. Said, is a moderate offense, must have a grudge.

Chen Jing noticed the atmosphere between the two, and he smiled slightly.Greeting: "Brother Qiu, Brother Tao, and Road Leader, please move over here. Let's meet with the sages first, and then we can inform you about the follow-up in detail."

Hearing this, Qiu Yan withdrew his gaze, followed the sound, and saw Chen Jing and Chen Yun standing in front of the altar not far away, and on the altar behind them stood a clay sculpture, the lower part of which was Illuminated by the lights, but the upper part is hidden in the darkness, even Qiu Yan's eyes can't see clearly, it seems to be shrouded in a layer of fog.

However, after approaching, he could clearly feel a simple and mellow artistic conception from the statue. Although this artistic conception was weak, it gave Qiu Yan a tough and unbreakable feeling, lingering on the clay sculpture.

"This ancestral hall should be a sage hall, but it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. How can there be sage spirits on this clay sculpture? No one worships, enshrines, or presents theoretical articles. The sage spirit on the clay sculpture, It should have disappeared long ago."

Walking to the altar, Qiu Yan looked up and finally saw the appearance of the clay sculpture clearly. It was an old man in a rough linen jacket. Although the clay sculpture was rough and his face was blurred, he still caught a little peace from the eyebrows of the clay sculpture. , faintly exuding a humanistic atmosphere, which is not the same as the Confucianist humanistic atmosphere.

"This clay sculpture, I don't know which sage it is, and what kind of theory it is..."

One question after another came to Qiu Yan's mind.

According to what Ji Zheng said, and the information Qiu Yan collected and sorted out, he already understood the role of clay statues of saints and sages, and knew that they were the embodiment of the attachment of the order of heaven and earth.

The order of heaven and earth originates from the propositions and theories that are practically popular in the world, otherwise it will be difficult to become a spirit.Even if a certain theory manifested in the world in the past and had many disciples, if its propositions failed to penetrate the hearts of the people, it would still be difficult to establish the order of heaven and earth, and even if it left writings, it would not be able to mobilize the power of order.

Correspondingly, if clay sculptures that can inherit the spirit of order cannot gather a humanistic atmosphere and are not enshrined in academies, the spirit inside will gradually fade over time, and eventually return to ordinary clay, which is no longer magical.

This time of decline and disappearance does not take too long.

And the clay sculpture that appeared in front of Qiu Yan is obviously old, and looking at the surrounding environment, it is even more impossible for someone to enshrine Wensi articles.

"How many years has the tenacity in this clay sculpture lasted?"

Just when Qiu Yan was puzzled, Chen Jing said: "Everyone, I think you have all seen this clay sculpture, and you should have noticed the lingering spirit on it, yes, this clay sculpture is a clay sculpture of a sage." It embodies an order of heaven and earth, a kind of humanitarian proposition!"

As he spoke, Qiu Yan, Tao Ying, and Lu Daoren all focused their attention on him.

Seeing this, Chen Jing nodded slightly, and then pointed to the surroundings: "The place where we are located is directly under the Eastern Capital City, and it is a sage hall buried in mud."

Hearing this, Tao Ying opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped by Chen Jing's hand: "Brother Tao, don't rush to ask, this place was not discovered by my Chen family, but the discoverer has some connection with my Chen family. My father spent a lot of money to buy the news, and then blocked it."

When Qiu Yan heard the word "blockade", his heart moved slightly, and he felt a trace of blood from inside.

"According to the discoverer, he entered here by mistake more than 20 years ago, and only then discovered this strange sage hall. After getting the news, my Chen family sent many people to investigate and record the things inside. , environment, compared with ancient books, and finally came to a conclusion..."

When the Chen family said this, they showed a solemn feeling, and said word by word: "This hall of sages has been abandoned for at least a thousand years!"

"what!?"

An exclamation came from Tao Ying's mouth, his face was full of shock, and he muttered to himself: "Thousands of years?" After saying these four words, he wandered around, his eyes swept around, "There is a thousand years of history here ? Thousands of years, sinking to the ground, no one can enshrine Wensi, after a thousand years, how can clay sculptures still have spirit?"

Obviously, Tao Ying also has a certain understanding of clay sculpture sages.

It wasn't just him, the Taoist also showed surprise, but he didn't show it as obviously as Tao Ying.

Even Qiu Yan's expression moved slightly, and he became more and more curious about the clay sculpture of sages.

"Chen can understand everyone's surprise."

Chen Jing said at the right time: "When I first heard about this, I was also shocked for a long time, and it was hard to understand, but the reason for it was unknown. My Chen family is also considered to have some power, and I can mobilize a lot of power. Although it is limited to secrecy, there is no Fa asked the enshrined members of the Five Armies Commander’s Mansion to help, but they also sent many family elites here to search for the root cause, but it’s a pity that it’s hard to find any clues, not to mention the sages are dignified and dare not blaspheme, so they haven’t been able to gain anything.”

He turned around and glanced at the statue behind him: "The Eastern Capital has been in existence for more than a thousand years, and it also experienced wars and natural disasters during the period. The old city was destroyed several times and then rebuilt. The place where we are now was once a ruins of the Eastern Capital. Because of the changes in the mountains and rivers, it was buried here, and it has long been forgotten, but it can be inferred that this place used to be an academy."

After a sentence of emotion, Chen Jing knew that what he said was similar, and finally got to the point: "However, although the reason is unknown, but with this statue, we can use it to send our souls to scholars!"

He winked at Chen Yun, who understood, stepped forward, took out two boxes from his sleeve, and handed them to Chen Jing.

Chen Jing got the boxes and opened one of them first.

A faint luster emanates from the box, and there is a roll of smooth paper in the box, with no flaws, releasing pure spiritual fluctuations, and it is blank.

Feeling this fluctuation, Qiu Yan immediately recognized that this was another sage paper.

Stretching out his hand to hold the piece of paper, Chen Jing looked at Qiu Yan and said, "With this piece of sage paper, as long as Brother Qiu writes an article on it, explaining the way of self-healing and shaking the clay sculpture, then the gate of scholars will be opened." It can be opened in advance!"

He took a deep breath and raised his voice: "In the eastern capital, apart from a few academies, the only one that enshrines clay sculptures of saints and sages is the Minglun Hall in the imperial city. It will not be easy to open, it is easy to be difficult to contact, and when Xingtan discusses Taoism, the Tianxia Academy will sacrifice to the sages, thousands of troops will come together, I don’t know how many more variables will be involved, but if you can enter the forest in advance, you can calmly arrange and take advantage , and finally use Xingtan Forum to return to reduce the danger."

Having said that, Chen Jing opened another box, and took out four jade bracelets from it. There was a continuous artistic conception in each bracelet, like a stream of water, and the body of the bracelet was even more sparkling, like flowing water condensed. Taste.

"It's one thing for the soul to enter the scholar's forest and the forest, but the physical body remains in the yang world, hiding danger. People who enter the forest in the academy and the imperial city naturally don't need to worry about the safety of the physical body, but we don't have to. Be prepared, these four water bracelets are one for each person, they are safe and secure, and they are protected together, in addition, my clan brother Chen Yun is not going with him, but is leaving behind the Dharma protector for comprehensive protection."

Chen Jing turned his gaze and said, "Brother Qiu is still satisfied with this arrangement? I wonder if we can make a decision?"

After the words were finished, everyone's eyes moved, focusing on Qiu Yan. He immediately narrowed his eyes, weighing the pros and cons.
