Dao fruit.

Qiu Yan looked over intently, and noticed that each of the three white stones was smooth and shiny. From the outside, they looked like marbles, but they were enveloped by perception, and did not capture a little bit of artistic conception from inside.

"There are three boundary stones!" Tang Qing's words did not hide his joy in the slightest: "I have read in books that ordinary beasts contain at most one boundary stone, and most of them are incomplete. How can there be these three perfectly round stones?" Consummation? It seems that the difficult beast just took shape for a long time."

As she spoke, she showed a trace of embarrassment again: "It's a pity that because of me, I ruined my cousin's affairs and let him escape."

"Catching difficulties is to explore, and the boundary stones have to be stripped out. In this way, what is the difference between young and old?" Beixuan shook his head, with a thoughtful look on his face, "However, why are difficult beasts of this age? No one has discovered it, and it has grown up to now? More than 30 years ago, there was also an apricot forum to discuss Taoism. At that time, many Confucian scholars entered the forest one after another, plus people who usually wander, this mountain range is not hidden, why is there no one? Discover?"

After thinking about it, this Beixuan was actually deep in thought, completely forgetting himself, as if he had forgotten everything around him, leaving Qiu Yan and others aside.

At this time, the old man coughed, stepped forward and tugged on Beixuan's sleeve, and reminded: "Young master, you can't be crazy right now, there are so many people waiting, besides, just relying on the sight in front of you How can we deduce the reason behind it? It’s better to go into the hole and look carefully, maybe you can find something.”

"Oh, yes, if Uncle Ming hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about it." After being touched by the old man, Beixuan came back to his senses, his face had the smell of waking up from a big dream, and there was no trace of falsehood in his words, which could be seen to be true I fell into deep thought and lost my mind.

Fortunately, other than Qiu Yan, other people have known about his problem for a long time.Did not take it to heart.

On the other hand, Qiu Yan had a learning mentality. After hearing the old man's address to Beixuan, he secretly guessed his identity and came up with a general idea: "A character who embodies a literary heart. Call Beixuan 'Young Master'... "

This appellation is generally what servants and servants refer to the young master's family, and most of the people who can condense their literary hearts have extraordinary literary talent and knowledge.How could he degrade himself into slavery?

Therefore, this old man should be a domestic servant, and seeing how Beixuan called him, he was different from ordinary servants.

"This person is probably a book boy from the Bei family. He has knowledge, but he can't pass the exam."

The children of the aristocratic family are accompanied by book boys and long-term companions to accompany them to study.Many of them are talented.It is also possible to have good knowledge, even to be appreciated by nobles, to be exempted from slavery, and to achieve good stories. There are many examples of these things in history.

Beixuan was reminded by the old man, and took a look at the three white stones.He laughed and said, "It's a coincidence that there are these three stones, but they happened to be distributed to Brother Qiu, Brother Zhou and Brother Huang."

As soon as the words fell, he swept his sleeves, and two white stones flew up from the ground, landed on his hands, and were solemnly handed over to Qiu Yan and Zhou Meng by Beixuan.

"The three of you are invited to make a move. It was originally agreed that there will be something in return. Now that there are three boundary stones, Bei will keep one, brother Qiu will get one, brother Zhou and brother Huang will get one. I don't know how to divide them. Do you have any objections?"

"Brother Bei is fair and considerate." All three expressed that they had no doubts.

There seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding between the four of them.

But some people were dissatisfied, so they heard Tang Qing say: "Cousin, there are three in total, and you will divide two out, but the prospecting, cave hunting, and even attracting difficult beasts, and laying out the layout are all thanks to you. It stands to reason that it should take up half, or even more, but in the end, it was taken away by the helper?"

When this woman spoke, her eyes were clear and her voice was crisp. Although the words she said offended people, they did not give people a sense of offense. Instead, they gave people the feeling of speaking quickly.

Beixuan chuckled lightly, and said: "From now on, Lu people have not redeemed people."

"Brother is using allusions to educate people again," Tang Qing also laughed, "This is what the most sage teacher said to educate sages. He said that people should ask for favors in return, so as to advocate order, and one person's virtue cannot be tolerated. instead of the benefit of the peoples."

"Since you know, why bother to say more," Beixuan listened, but said seriously, "You may think that I have contributed a lot, but you must know that prospecting for mines and holes is not difficult. It's just a waste of time to do it. Brother Qiu and the others have a heart, not to mention looking for mines. Even the beast just now can suppress it by itself. Joining forces with us is not incapable, but It's mutual benefit, how can I begrudge two boundary stones?"

Seeing that Tang Qing wanted to say more, he shook his head and said, "Jingshi is just the beginning, and we need to help each other in the future. How can we cherish small profits and make others feel dissatisfied?" Apologies to others.

"Brother Bei, you are being polite." Zhou Meng and the others had normal expressions on their faces. They heard what Bei Xuan meant, and the other party wanted to show their attitude. They wanted to save a few people from working together in the future.

Qiu Yan smiled, and also didn't care about it, instead he became a little interested in Beixuan's life.

At the same time, the palm of his hand holding Baishi trembled slightly, his perception went deep into it, and he captured a mood from it, firm, resolute, and courageous.

"This white stone is called the boundary stone. The artistic conception condensed in it is completely opposite to the artistic conception exuded by the beast. However, you can only feel it if you touch this stone, but it is difficult to see it in remote sensing. leak……"

At the same time, Beixuan's gaze also focused on: "Brother Qiu looks like he doesn't know much about Jingshi. This stone is the condensation of artistic conception, but what it contains is not the meaning of danger or retreat, but the heart of fierceness and courage. , and the black mist on the surface of the difficult beast are two extremes, which can be called brave and diligent, and have the same effect as the masculinity of blood, absorbing it with the soul can help Brother Qiu step into the stage of cultivating the soul."

After hearing this, the others were surprised.

"Soul nurturing? This is the second level of the third realm," Tang Qing said directly, "Brother Qiu also practiced Taoism?" The light flickered, "The soul body is crystal clear and radiant, it is indeed forged by the soul, in terms of purity alone, it is still higher than me!"

At this time, there was a sound of piercing the sky not far away, but someone from the two boats flew down, and the leader was Sun Yong.

As soon as this person landed, he walked quickly, bowed to Qiu Yan and others, and said in his mouth: "I have seen several masters."

"Brother Sun came just in time." Beixuan flicked his fingers and shot a ball of mist over, "This thing is condensed from the thoughts of perseverance and courage. You hold it, share it with everyone, and absorb it together. It can temper your mood. Raise the mind and strengthen the mind."

"Thank you sir for your generosity." Sun Yong saluted respectfully, collected the cloud of smoke, put it in his sleeve, and continued, "I don't know this mine..."

While speaking, his gaze crossed Beixuan and landed on the entrance of the cave ten feet away.

The entrance of this hole is about the height of a person, and the width of three people side by side. The inside is not completely dark, but glowing with a faint light.

Beixuan said directly: "Since we are here, everyone can enter the cave, and everyone can take what they need, but if they get something, it belongs to them. , you still need to be careful, it’s best not to go too deep, and don’t act alone.”

Just now Nan Beast put all his eggs in one basket, broke through the blockade with burning thoughts, escaped with a wisp of smoke, and entered this hole.

"Don't worry, Mr. Sun and others have a sense of proportion and will be careful. However, although the beast is fierce, I can only retreat when I encounter it, but I can't chat in front of a few people. I have been severely injured just now. I think I know how terrible it is." Yes, I won’t dare to do it again.” Sun Yong received Beixuan’s consent, and with a happy expression on his face, he complimented lightly.

Beixuan shook his head, and then said to Qiu Yan, "Brother Qiu, do you want to refine the boundary stone immediately?"

Qiu Yan put the white stone in his sleeve, shook his head and said, "This stone is exquisite, we need to explore it."

Beixuan said: "In this case, why not go into the mine? On the way, Bei can tell you the main points." After speaking, he closed his eyes and sensed the remote sensing, and there was a trace of surprise behind him, "Brother Qiu's two friends have already passed away. The boat went away, and I don’t know where it went.”

"My companion has his own opinion, Brother Bei, don't worry." Qiu Yan replied, and accepted the other party's invitation, and then the two walked into the cave.

When the beasts were berserk, they almost completely covered the entrance of the cave. Qiu Yan could guess the history after looking at it, and knew that it was the place where the book mine was located.As soon as I entered the cave, I realized the difference inside.

Inside the cave, it is not a deep tunnel as he thought, but rather spacious, it seems to be formed naturally, but it is different from the cave, square and square, giving people a sense of grandeur and dignity.

It is no wonder that the world of Shilin is not formed naturally, but is born according to thoughts. Nature is different from natural will. The things formed in it actually contain many subjective factors.

However, although the cave is spacious, there are large and small openings scattered around, and there are holes in the holes. Qiu Yan glanced at it and noticed that each hole was shining with various colors of light, and it was bottomless, and he didn't know where it led.

"This cave can be described as extending in all directions. If you keep going forward, you may get lost in it."

Qiu Yan was thinking, but Beixuan suddenly bent down and held a protruding stalagmite at his feet.

The stalagmite was about a palm high, emitting red light. Around it, there were more than a dozen stalagmites, large and small, each shining with a different luster. The light in the cave that Qiu Yan saw originated from this.

Snapped!

Amid the cracking sound, Beixuan broke off the stalagmite and held it in his hand.

Immediately, the stalagmite changed, melting like white snow under the scorching sun, leaving only a fingernail-sized crystal block in Beixuan's hand, also glowing red.

"This is the book mine." Beixuan said, and passed the red crystal block in his hand, "Brother Qiu, you might as well hold it in your hand and feel it, so you can know the reality."

After receiving the crystal block, Qiu Yan immediately sensed an idea, followed the palm of his hand, melted into his soul, spread a piece of ink in his heart, and outlined it into a bamboo leaf, vividly.

He couldn't help admiring: "Wonderful! In this book mine, it seems that someone is splashing ink and painting!"
