Dao Fruit

As Qiu Yan's thoughts fell, his thoughts settled down, and he recited the scriptures silently in his heart, mobilizing the bookshelf in his soul and stimulating the spirit of the sage.

This kind of stimulation can allow the separated spiritual seeds to be pulled and explode with power. However, due to the distance, this pulling is not obvious. At most, Qiu Yan's perception can be extended a little.

What's more, Xu Shoulao used some tricks to confuse his own position, which to a certain extent made Qiu Yan's perception erratic.

Now, Qiu Yan concentrated his mind, and the deity was analyzing Tian Zhun's aura. The two bodies were actually one idea, which meant that one person was calculating and taking action at the same time, so the efficiency naturally improved.

Suddenly, the erratic perception became much clearer. Although he could not calculate the opponent's position, he could roughly perceive the blurry image of the illusion in Tian Zhun's mind.

"The spirit of Legalism is the insurance that I have left in Tian Zhun's heart. It is not used to antagonize others. Since it has been drawn out, I can only go with the trend."

As he thought about it, Qiu Yan's thoughts passed through him from afar.

At this moment, in the illusion in Tian Zhun's heart, the spiritual conception of explaining ghosts and gods took over. After obliterating the spirit of Ya Sheng's article, it inspired a little spirit of revealing the Dharma.

However, this manifesting spirit is not aggressive. Once it is revealed, it turns into thin threads, intertwined with each other, rapidly expanding, and spreading throughout the illusion.

This illusion is actually a reflection of Tian Zhun's mind and represents his consciousness.

Nowadays, the spirit of manifesting the law appears and does not affect or interfere with this illusion. Instead, it is embedded in it one by one. Each channel reveals the standardized and formulated artistic conception, and is actually formulating rules for the illusion!

At this time, the spirit of explaining ghosts and gods surged forward, trying to wipe out the spirit of manifesting the Dharma, but the latter seemed to be powerless. Moved by the thought, and entangled in the past, he extracted a little information from the spirit of interpreting ghosts and gods, perfected his own rules, and integrated it into the illusion, thereby affecting Tian Zhun's mind and consciousness.

"Oh? It's interesting. Since this kid's life is no longer threatened, I don't have to continue to interfere..."

Outside, Xu Shoulao spoke in a low voice, and then slowly raised his hand. All the mental fluctuations surging from his body disappeared instantly!

Snap!

Tian Zhun's body suddenly jumped up from the ground, and there was a crisp sound in his body, and then his eyes suddenly opened wide and he howled!

Hearing this sound, Meng Huaqiu quickly stepped forward, grabbed Tian Zhun's wrist, and poured in real energy to calm the changes in the opponent's body and at the same time explore his physical condition.

Check this. He calmed down a little and found that Tian Zhun's flesh and blood no longer cracked, which showed that his mood had calmed down.

"Uncle Shi..." A weak voice came from Tian Zhun's mouth, and he was as pale as paper. There was a lingering sense of dejection and discouragement in his eyes.

It's no wonder that he was first troubled by the illusion, even his physical body was involved, and he was seriously injured. The consciousness is being hunted one after another in the illusion, and it is extremely embarrassing to be left alone and helpless. Now that he wakes up and thinks for a moment, he can realize that he has unknowingly fallen into Qiu Yan's tricks, which is a big blow to his confidence.

But this is not fatal. What really makes him deeply frustrated is that when the two spirits are at war, his mind is infected and forcibly reversed. This feeling is unbearable for an adult, let alone a teenager. ?

My heart is as high as the sky, but the reality is cruel and ruthless.

One can imagine the magnitude of the blow.

The previous rhetoric has been shattered in the face of reality.

Because he was still injured and his vitality had not recovered, his abnormal expression was not noticed by Meng Huoqin. However, the latter could also predict the impact of this incident on Tian Zhun, and wanted to comfort him, but his words were powerless, and in the final analysis of the matter, Tian Zhun did it himself. Although the teachings of their group emphasize benevolence, righteousness, and grudges, they do not support revenge for this kind of behavior.

At this time, Xu Shoulao retracted his hand and said in a low voice: "Okay, you can leave."

After hearing this, Meng Huoqin quickly expressed his thanks: "Thank you so much, Shou Lao, for saving me. I will definitely fulfill the promise I made."

"As long as you remember." When Xu Shou Lao said this, he changed the subject, "But before I leave, I have to tell him something. Where did the person who planted the spirit come from?"

"This..." Meng Huaqiu hesitated, but finally told the truth.

"Qiu Yan?" Xu Shoulao chewed on the name, then remained silent for a while before saying, "Okay, let's go."

"Farewell, disciple." Meng Huoqin said no more and left with Tian Zhun.

The dark crypt returned to calm. No one would have thought that in such a place, someone would be alone, sitting cross-legged for years, motionless.

………………

Dongdu, inn.

Qiu Yan gathered his consciousness again. After a long time, he opened his eyes and raised his right hand. A tiny bit of light shot out from the depths of his eyes, flew out and landed on his fingertips.

There is a bit of spirit in this bit of light.

"This spirit is similar to the spirit of sages. It represents a kind of idea and avenue. It contains the tendency to lead humanity, but it cannot mobilize the surrounding order..."

Feeling this spirit, Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

This bit of spirit was a bit of hostile spirit that was stripped away and gathered together by the Dharma-showing spirit in the illusion in Tian Zhun's mind. When Qiu Yan gathered his consciousness, it was taken back.

The scholar's clone was not able to analyze this point of spirit, so he only had a brief understanding and passed it out through the hole in his soul.

After doing this, Qiu Yan stood up from the bed and straightened his clothes. At this point, the matter was finally over.

Early the next morning, a servant from Mingqian Shuzhai came over and said that his family was rude and sent a false declaration of war. He came here to apologize and said that the matter would be written off.

After hearing this, Qiu Yan just smiled and revealed the matter, as if he had expected it.

Afterwards, Hu Qi couldn't help asking, but Qiu Yan didn't hide anything from him and said in an orderly manner -

"The person who wrote the letter of challenge to me mentioned Xingtan Forum when talking to you, and his tone was not small. Judging from his behavior, he should be a person who wants to make a splash. Such a person, after seeing my words, became angry. The idea of ​​​​comparison is not unexpected, but if you inquire afterward and know that I, Qiu Yan, am not famous in Dongdu, I will naturally give up or postpone it. "

Hu Qi became more and more puzzled: "Is it just because your reputation is not good, sir, that you don't come? But at that time, I saw that he looked very excited."

Qiu Yan smiled and replied: "When he saw my words, he thought that I was not an unknown person, and his idea of ​​​​challenging was sincere. But with my current reputation, even if he wins, there will be no success. Big repercussions. This person has a high temper, and for the sake of exposing trivial matters in advance, he asked people to come over and refuse the fight. In fact, it also has another meaning. "

"What's the meaning?"

"Just leave the competition to the Xingtan forum." Qiu Yan said, picking up a book from the table.

Hu Qi hesitated slightly, but finally couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what is going on with this Xingtan forum? Do you really want to participate?"

"Of course I have to participate, but I have to think carefully about how to participate." Qiu Yan said, opening the book in his hand and reading.

When Hu Qi saw this, he understood clearly and resigned on his own.

Afterwards, Qiu Yan began to read softly in the room, and after breakfast, someone came to the door again.

Two people came to visit, one of whom was an acquaintance of Qiu Yan.

"Brother Qiu, I'm sorry to bother you." Looking at Chen Jing with a smile on his face, Qiu Yan secretly guessed the other party's intention, and at the same time returned the greeting, then turned his eyes and landed behind Chen Jing.

There was another person following behind him. He was also dressed as a Confucian scholar. Judging from the style of his clothes, he looked like a nobleman. He had a delicate face and a faint aura of nobility.

"This is..."

"I was about to introduce you," Chen Jing smiled slightly and replied smoothly, "This Liu Zhanpeng is now my classmate. He just passed the entrance examination a few days ago."

"I've met Brother Qiu." After Chen Jing finished his introduction, Liu Zhanpeng came up to greet him. Qiu Yan saluted naturally, catching a hint of familiarity on the other person's body, and he suddenly understood.

Sure enough, Chen Jing said: "Speaking of which, Zhan Peng and Brother Qiu have some connections. He is the eldest son of Inspector Liu. He passed the exam this year and received a letter of recommendation, so he came to the academy to become a disciple."

"As expected."

Qiu Yan secretly thought to himself and went over to chat with Liu Zhanpeng.

The observer Liu mentioned in Chen Jingkou refers to Liu Jing, the observer of Jiannan Road. Qiu Yan was able to get the attention of Lizong Academy because of Liu Jing's recommendation.

In fact, before taking the provincial examination, Qiu Yan had heard someone say that the observer's son was also taking the exam this year. This official's son had traveled to Jiannan and studied in the observer's residence for a long time.

To be an official in Da Rui, except for some special circumstances, you usually have to take office in another place. That is to say, you cannot go back to your hometown to be an official, especially a civil official. This is to prevent the involvement of personal connections, and the tail will not be lost unless there is an emperor's order, such as that of Pan Pan Xiang, the second young master of the family, had returned to his hometown as a commander before, which was considered a special situation.

Liu Jing was an official in Jiannan, but his ancestral home was Jingxiang. As his son, although Liu Zhanpeng traveled to Jiannan, he still had to return to his hometown to take the imperial examination, so Qiu Yan had never met him.

However, with Liu Jing's relationship, the two seemed quite friendly, and they became familiar with each other after a few words.

Seeing that Qiu Yan had become quite familiar with Liu Zhanpeng, Chen Jing stopped nagging and explained his purpose: "I heard that Brother Qiu and Ma Fu had some bad blood?"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Qiu Yan's heart moved, "This matter spread so quickly? It's just a small conflict, how could you let Brother Chen know about it?"

"It's not that things spread quickly, but that someone is adding fuel to the flames," Chen Jing laughed, "I came here this time because of someone else's entrustment. Brother Qiu, you probably don't know yet. The seventh child of the Ma family is also here now." It was he who asked me to come here to study with Lizong.”

Having said this, he turned to the door and ordered: "Bring people in."

As soon as he finished speaking, a shout came from outside the door——

"Let me go!"

Then, a servant in green clothes walked in, twisting a young boy.

"Who is this person?" Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes.

"This man is Ma Wan's long-term follower," Chen Jing pointed to the young boy, "Last night he came to the academy and asked to see Ma Lao Qi, but he made trouble in the name of Ma Mansion, and Ma Lao Qi scolded him a few times. Then he gave it to me." (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
