Dao fruit.

From Qiu Yan's peaceful words, An Jin heard a firm intention that would not be changed by other people's words, so she suppressed her doubts, put the painting scroll in her hand on the low table in front of her, and slowly opened it.

With the opening of the painting scroll, the ink stains were revealed, and it was actually a painting of landscapes and figures!

"Ok?"

Not only was An Jin stunned for a moment, but even Yang Ying and Han Weier's complexions moved slightly, and their eyes fell on the painting, revealing expressions of surprise.

The scroll is not long, antique.

High mountains and dense forests, towering ancient trees, vegetation and rocks, old and vigorous, the vast mountains are rolling and undulating, and there are many figures at the foot of the mountain, dripping with ink, in various poses and with different expressions.

Just for a moment, the three people who saw the painting were stunned for a moment, and then Yang Ying recovered, with a calm expression on the surface, but a sense of surprise flashed in his eyes. Deep in his eyes, he was thoughtful and seemed to have gained something. .

"This painting seems to be a scene from ancient times."

An Jin also came back to his senses at this time, looked at the whole painting, got a general impression, made some inferences, and finally praised: "This is a rare masterpiece!"

Next to her, Han Weier narrowed her eyes slightly. After she settled her mind, she noticed that the ink on the scroll paper was freshly dried, and smelled a scent of ink, and then said: "Brother Qiu, this painting should not have been painted for long."

Qiu Yan nodded, but did not go into details. In fact, this painting was made after Taoist Yuxu left. He accumulated the feelings in his heart, combined with the painting skills he got from the book mine, and splashed ink in one go. Air drying, somewhat hasty.

"This method opened Yang's eyes."

Yang Ying stared at the painting intently, after a while.Taking a deep breath, he stood up and saluted Qiu Yan.An Jin and Han Weier were a little confused.

They don't know that Yang Yingshen has cultivation and keen perception, but just looking at it with his eyes, he can still capture a little life cultivation technique from the lines on the painting, which is of great reference value for his own realm, and may be able to promote cultivation to go one step further.Thanks of course.

"Being able to help others, even if it's just one person, shows that what Qiu has done is meaningful and has implemented what he has learned." Qiu Yan waved his hand, turned to An Jin and said, "Take this painting back with one step and present it to a few of you." Mr. Qiu is not good at painting, and he finished the painting in a hurry, and there are many things that have not been expressed. Please explain clearly to you gentlemen. In the next few days, I will gradually improve my painting skills. I can send one person to pick up the paintings every day."

"Study painting skills? Take paintings every day?"

Hearing what Qiu Yan said, An Jin became confused and was about to ask in detail, but thought that he was only here on order, so it was not appropriate to involve too much.Then he held back again, but finally left a sentence: "I'm waiting here. I want to invite Mr. Qiu back. Since Mr. Qiu is unwilling, it's not easy to force it. It's just that it will inevitably make some gentlemen unhappy, and maybe they will send someone over .”

Qiu Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me. Gentlemen don't want to see me. There is something else in it. Just send this painting."

Having said all this, An Jin couldn't be ignorant, so the three of them got up and were about to leave.

At this time, Qiu Yan seemed to suddenly remember, and called Yang Ying: "Brother, please tell King Yan that it is inconvenient for a certain Qiu to make friends with the prince. , might as well do more good deeds, and be lighthearted."

"Okay, I will definitely tell him." Yang Ying replied with a smile, and then left without hesitation.

Qiu Yan cupped his hands and said: "Qiu has something to do here, I can't send everyone away in person, I can only let Dai Guo do it for me."

An Jin watched this scene full of doubts. He knew that this Yang Ying was here to deliver a message for King Yan, but he didn't mention a word when he arrived. Instead, it was Qiu Yan who gave orders like a prophet.

After thinking about it, the three of them had already walked out of the room, but there were several people walking towards them.

"Where do these people come from?"

Thinking of Qiu Yan's words in his heart, An Jin looked at the people facing him, and found that everyone had an unspeakable temperament, their eyes were slightly confused, but their expressions were extraordinarily calm, showing a faint taste of breaking and standing.

This group of people also noticed Han Weier and the others, but they didn't make a sound, let alone greet them, and the two passed each other.

After walking a few steps, An Jin looked back, and the group had already entered the house.

"What are your plans?"

After walking in, Yu Xudao and the others had no intention of sitting down. Tong Shou, as a senior and the oldest person, came forward to negotiate with Qiu Yan.

It can be seen that several people are suppressing their emotions.

It's no wonder that Taoist Yuxu came to the door. They thought that being rescued was a sure thing, and they even speculated that Qiu Yan might be arrested instead, but the result was unexpected. Qiu Yan forced Taoist Yuxu to gone!

Such an ending made it unbelievable for the few people who were used to the Taoist master's strong style.

On the other hand, at the last moment, Taoist Yuxu wanted to take them away, but he didn't deliberately conceal it, and he could feel it with a little attention.

Killing and not killing, letting go and not letting go, such a situation made Yu Xudao's members completely unable to sit still, and decided to have a showdown with Qiu Yan.

After glancing at a few people, Qiu Yan understood their thoughts, and said, "Don't worry, I have a purpose for keeping you here."

"Intention?" The young man sneered, "I'm afraid he wants to torture us and humiliate us."

"Killing is nothing more than a nod. It's not that Qiu has never killed someone before." Qiu Yan glanced at him, "I've spent all this trouble just to humiliate you? Don't be anxious. When you fight with Qiu, Without the slightest thought of holding back, I imprisoned you as revenge, how can Taoist Yuxu release you with just one word?"

The head of the Seven Sons of Yuxu, Liu Xi took advantage of the situation and said: "Since it is not, please draw a line and explain the matter clearly. If it is so unclear, we will only let us study and cultivate. If we change it, we will not feel at ease. Most of us have been wasted kung fu, even if our bodies are healthy, we are no different from ordinary people, and we are worried and frightened every day, which will inevitably leave the root of the disease."

Glancing at the few people, Qiu Yan nodded and said, "I wanted you to cultivate your spirit for a while, calm your mind, and get rid of your impetuosity, but Taoist Yuxu's visit has aroused your hearts, so it's not easy to calm down. In this way, we might as well let you know the purpose."

While talking, he took out a booklet from the bookcase and placed it in front of several people.

This book attracted several people's eyes, and their eyes focused on the book.

This is an ordinary book, it looks no different from other books, it is just used for binding, it is as black as ink, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

"What does this mean?" Tong Shou looked at Qiu Yan after watching for a while.

"In this book, there are some simple truths summed up by Qiu." Qiu Yan pointed to the book, "Didn't you ask me what is the purpose of keeping you here? Actually, my purpose lies in this book." Among them, you can take them back and study them well."

After saying this, Qiu Yan didn't say any more, and ordered Hu Qi to send them out.

"This Qiu Yan, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? I always feel that this person is different from ordinary monks, and also different from those literati and Confucian scholars."

Walking out of the house, the members of Daoist Yuxu were silent at first, and then some people talked through their minds, which attracted others to agree. This time, Daoist Yuxu was forced to retreat, which made their already calm state of mind return to turmoil. Feeling pressured, I have to treat it seriously.

During the heart-to-heart conversation, there was always a person who was silent, and this person was the only son of Taoist Master Yuxu, Wang Yifu.

At this moment, he was holding a book, in a daze, as if he was thinking.

This book was exactly the one that Qiu Yan took out. As Wang Yifu walked, he felt the arguments of several people, then took a deep breath and opened the book.

Immediately, the two words on the title page came into view——

Know and do.

These two characters are written like dragons and snakes, and there seems to be a strange power in the strokes, which makes people have the illusion that the body and mind must be absorbed into it, which makes Wang Yifu's heart skip a beat!

Then, the sealed acupoints on the body vibrated and connected with the aura of the outside world!

A trace of aura melted into his body, and Wang Yifu's flesh and blood, like rain after a long drought, devoured this trace of aura greedily, turning it into a bit of vitality, strengthening his flesh and bones!

"Ok?"

Wang Yifu was taken aback for a moment, and an uncontrollable joy filled his heart!

………………

On the other side, Han Weier and others, led by Dai Guo, were walking on the abandoned path.

The road was smoother than before, and after Hu Qi and Dai Guo took care of it, there were no wild animals, so it was much safer.

Not long after, when he was about to walk out of the woods, Dai Guo took his leave first.

"Gentlemen's invitation, Qiu Yan actually refused to accept it. I don't know what his plan is, but his painting is still good. When I look at it, I can feel a little artistic conception from it, as if it can guide the way of writing, but it is not clear. It seems to be drawn by many people. Debris got in the way."

As soon as Dai Guo left, An Jin looked at the scroll in his hand and said something.

"Of course, the article that Qiu Yan wrote in Wenxuan Tower is even more mysterious than this painting!" Han Weier continued with a smile, "The words in that painting are all about the right time, place and people. Within a year, it will be difficult to write the same handwriting, and this painting can't compare, but it's a pity that the calligraphy was taken away by Huang Yan, and the pearl was cast in secret!"

Han Wei'er frowned as she spoke, obviously caring about the loss, but as soon as she finished speaking, Yang Ying shook her head with a smile, and said, "Miss, what you said is wrong, since the words were written by Brother Qiu, Then why is it difficult for him to write another one? What does it have to do with the right time and place? Even this painting is probably not as simple as it appears. You and I have limited vision, and we have to wait for the judges of great scholars."

Seeing that Han Wei'er seemed dissatisfied and wanted to refute, Yang Ying waved her hand: "Don't rush to refute, Yang doesn't have much research on literature and Taoism, just compare it with practice. There is actually a difference between a monk's practice and this study. There are many similarities. In addition, Yang is also very curious about that painting. If he has the opportunity, he will definitely find Huang Yan and discuss it. It’s a pity to see you.”

"Are you going to find Huang Yan?" Han Weier rolled her eyes, "What's so difficult? I'll give you some advice." (To be continued...)
