Dao Fruit

This sound is like the roar of a tiger and the roar of a dragon!

The swamp man spied suddenly jumped up, covered his ears, and his face was distorted.

However, the great national master's voice was deliberately restrained. Although it was deafening, it was generally impacting in one direction. The spy's lack of cultivation and weak body would only be affected.

"Huh? My black mist is extremely thin and hardly emits much fluctuation. I didn't expect to be discovered by this person! However, the inner demon is not suitable for volley exploration, but to find the spiritual gap and attach to it. "

As the thoughts swirled, the inner demon smoke twisted for a moment, and then the sound wave came. After the bombardment, not a single drop of black mist remained.

"Huh?" He exclaimed, "So easy? No counterattack at all?"

At this time, a low, magnetic voice came -

"National Master, what's going on?"

The one who spoke was the man with the gem hanging on his name.

"Reporting to the second prince," Monk Fan turned around, "I noticed that there was a thought lingering beside me. Someone had separate thoughts or spiritual consciousness and was peeping around, but he was particularly weak."

The man known as the Second Prince wondered: "Oh? I have isolated the surroundings with the relics of the Holy Buddha, but there is still someone who can transmit his thoughts in. He is not a simple person. Did the National Master find any clues?"

"It's hard to tell who it is," Monk Fan said calmly, "But we can't stay here any longer. We need to move as soon as possible."

"What the Grand Master said is very true." The colorfully dressed Swamp Man stood up, "There is also a stronghold in the north of the city that can be moved there. I will make arrangements first."

"Thank you." Fanseng nodded.

After saying that, the swamp people and the spies left first.

After the two of them left, the second prince said: "National Master, Baoxin is very ambitious. He said he would surrender, but he might rebel again in the end."

"I know this well," Monk Fan said with his usual expression. "This time when we join forces with the Marsh people, we don't really expect them to surrender to Zanpu. Instead, we want to take this opportunity to spread the glory of our Buddha, and then use it as a stepping stone to erode the Central Plains. When Da Rui worships the Buddha, Zanpu will be able to fight without blood. Take charge of the world!"

"That's true," the second prince heard, and an imperceptible glint flashed in his eyes. "However, I heard that there are people from China who went to the Buddhist country to obtain scriptures. Now they have returned and have opened a temple and established a Buddha in Guanzhong."

"Hmph!" Monk Fan snorted coldly, "They are just a bunch of speculators who have not understood the profound meaning of Buddhism."

"I see. This way, I will feel relieved." The second prince smiled slightly and said no more. All kinds of thoughts were running through my mind.

Then, the two of them also walked away.

………………

"The Fan people want to preach? This is no small matter. We have always guarded the west. The military town that resisted the Fan people is the Yongping Army. The military governor of the Yongping Army seems to have been in contact with Pan Xiang. We need to lend out elite soldiers. , in this case, there is a danger of being taken advantage of. "

Outside. Qiu Yan, who was hiding somewhere, only felt that the situation was complicated.

"However, if I remind Pan Xiang, he will be suspicious of me instead. It is better to inform Wen Anguo of these things and let him make decisions and adjust arrangements."

After making up his mind and holding his breath for a while, Qiu Yan left. He first went back to the Liu family's old house and tidied up, then went to Zhang's house and picked up the package.

In the meantime, Mr. Zhang warmly entertained and opened a banquet. Many gentlemen thanked Qiu Yan together. They were full of wine and food. Some people offered to give silver coins as gifts, but Qiu Yan rejected them all.

After the lively stay, Qiu Yan, accompanied by Zhang Zhen, took the Zhang family's sedan to the Liu family's old house.

The luxurious sedan chair attracted Liu's neighbors to come out one after another to inquire about it.

When they saw Qiu Yan coming out of the sedan, this group of people suddenly realized.

"It's Qiu Sheng!"

"I heard from businessmen that this Qiu Sheng is a talented man from Jiannan, as famous as Fang Ziyan and Gu Yan!"

"I was in the tavern the day before yesterday, and I heard a storyteller talking about him. They all said that this person's handwriting was excellent! It can be called the best in Jiannan Road!"

"Moreover, didn't Pan Mansion bring back Liu Huai's sister and niece a while ago? I heard that they originally wanted to pick up Lao Liu, but Lao Liu had a stubborn temper and didn't agree."

"Even the Pan family has to give face to Qiu."

"Huh? The man accompanying Qiu Yan looks familiar! I remembered it! That's the eldest son of the Zhang family!"

…

Whispers and discussions arose.

As early as when the results of the Taoist examination were released, Qiu Yan's reputation had spread around the Liu family. In recent days, the events in Wuxin City have also spread. It is precisely because it involves old talents like Fang Ziyan and Gu Yan that it is easier to cause trouble. Others are interested.

Over time, Qiu Yan's reputation grew, but the Liu family's neighbors became more and more frightened. Thinking that when the Liu family was in trouble, not only did he and others not lend a helping hand, but there were also people who ridiculed him, which was almost adding insult to injury.

Now, the Liu family is seeing things turn around and seems to be getting more developed, so these people are a little scared.

Those quick-thinking people were thinking about whether to go over and get close to Qiu Yan, but before they could make up their mind, Qiu Yan had already bid farewell to Zhang Zhen, walked into the house, and closed the courtyard door.

………………

"Huh? Qiu Yan, your sexual cultivation seems to be somewhat improved."

Returning to the room, he put down the package, and the eight-character ancient seal script flowed out of it. He let go of his senses, enveloped Qiu Yan, and experienced a hint of unusual flavor.

"The breath is mellow, as if the soul has been refined." It said with some uncertainty.

On the other side, the long sword flew up, shook for a while, and made a clanging sound: "Wrong! Qiu Yan has made progress in life cultivation. His flesh and blood are slightly tense. It is clear that he has practiced some method to strengthen his flesh and blood."

As he said, he moved closer and said to himself: "Not bad, not bad. If you continue to strengthen like this, you can practice kung fu into your muscles, bones, skin, flesh, bones, blood and internal organs. You took shortcuts before, and your foundation was unstable. It was like a castle in the air. It seemed powerful, but when you met a real master, you would be dwarfed."

As soon as he said this, Gu Zhuan immediately aroused his dissatisfaction: "What do you know? Sex cultivation is the foundation, and life cultivation is only auxiliary. It is not wrong to take shortcuts in life cultivation, because in the end, it cooperates with the soul path and forms a Yin spirit. There is no need to be afraid of an unstable foundation. It is just a skin bag anyway."

Soon, the words and the sword quarreled again.

Qiu Yan listened with interest and took out a pen and paper from the package, grinded the paper, and wrote down some of the content of the conversation between the two.

As he wrote, the blood on the paper suddenly rose, and characters with full bones, flesh and skin appeared, faintly beating, as if alive, attracting the attention of the ancient seal and the long sword.

Then, the package shook again, and the ginseng baby crawled out, squirming to Qiu Yan's hand, twitching twice, as if sniffing something, revealing a satisfied mood.

The ancient seal turned one by one and fell to Qiu Yan's hand, lingering on the pen, and asked aloud: "Qiu Yan, where did you learn this character?" His childish voice trembled slightly.

The long sword fell straight down, sending out a perceptual wave, covering Qiu Yan's entire body. Feeling the trembling flesh and blood on the other party, the sonorous and clear voice revealed a little surprise: "What a set of exercises that trembles flesh and blood! This set of exercises can mobilize tiny forces, penetrate the body, and agitate the flesh and blood. As long as you persevere, you can soon lead out the central soul and refine it! Where did you learn it from?"

The two questions seem different, but they are asking the same thing.

Qiu Yan's set of writing techniques is derived from the techniques of practicing calligraphy before, but it really took shape in Sun Xingming's house and was fully revealed in the main hall of Zhang Mansion.

Qiu Yan and Zhang Zhen rushed all the way, but when they arrived in the city, they turned to visit the Sun family. The ancient seal and the long sword were not brought by Qiu Yan, but were taken to the backyard by the Zhang family servants. During the fierce battle in Zhang Mansion, although the two had a sense of each other, they did not show up, so they missed the opportunity. Now seeing the blood and qi under Qiu Yan's pen, they can't help but be surprised.

Qiu Yan did not intend to hide this, and said: "This set of calligraphy techniques was not taught by others, but I summarized it myself. Because it is not yet perfect, it has no name yet."

"You summarized it yourself? So it is self-created?" Gu Zhuan and Chang Jian were both surprised when they heard this.

Then Gu Zhuan asked again: "You said this word is not perfect yet? But you have an idea?"

Qiu Yan nodded and said: "Bone, skin and flesh are the appearance of the word, which is the shape and body of the word, but the charm of the word is just the expression of emotion, not the soul, so there are naturally room for improvement. Even the shape of the word still has room for improvement. Only by experiencing the changes in human nature and the various aspects of the world can the word be continuously enriched, and the word can express the heart and condense the soul."

After hearing this, Gu Zhuan was silent for a long time, and finally said: "If the old man knew you, he might regard you as a confidant."

Qiu Yan seized the opportunity and asked: "I wonder which wise man you are talking about?"

Gu Zhuan immediately said reflexively: "If you want to know, you must pay a thousand gold! And talk to Min Yuan, share a little fire of humanity."

Qiu Yan shook his head and had to give up. He quickly packed up his pen and ink, washed up, blew out the lamp and went to sleep.

After a night, Qiu Yan went out in the morning of the next day without any hurry. On the way, he clearly noticed that someone was following him carefully.

But this time, Qiu Yan did not intend to get rid of them, but walked slowly, had breakfast in a pub, walked around the market, bought two old books, and finally arrived at the destination of this trip-

Sun's courtyard.

It was still the Li Nanny who opened the door, but compared with the previous time, this Nanny was much more enthusiastic. She invited Qiu Yan in, made tea, praised Qiu Yan a few words, and then left in a hurry, thinking that the work was not finished yet.

"Brother Qiu, wait a moment, my father is still in the prefectural government office, and it will take a while before he can come back." It was still Sun Wei who entertained Qiu Yan, warm and thoughtful, with a hint of flattery.

Not long after, Sun Xingming returned to the courtyard, and knew that Qiu Yan was here, and immediately came to find him.

"My dear nephew, you came at the right time. Just now at the prefectural yamen, the gentlemen mentioned you. The chief examiner of this provincial examination, Mr. Qi, praised you very much."

After hearing this, Qiu Yan was surprised and said, "Chief examiner Qi? Could it be the expert in water conservancy, Qi Zhengyuan?"

"It is this person," Sun Xingming restrained his smile, "It's only a few days before the provincial examination. The court has finally decided on the chief examiner of Jiannan Road. However, you have to be prepared. His praise of you now may not be a good thing." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature. The novels are better and updated faster!
