Dao Fruit

Qiu Yan looked over attentively and noticed that the three white stones were all smooth and shiny. From the appearance, they looked like marble, but the perception was overshadowed and he did not capture the slightest bit of artistic conception from inside.

"There are actually three realm stones!" Tang Qing said with no trace of joy: "I have read in books that ordinary difficult beasts only contain one realm stone at most, and most of them are incomplete. How can there be these three round ones? Perfect? ​​It seems that the difficult beast has been taking shape for a long time."

As she spoke, she showed a hint of shame again: "It's a pity that my cousin's affairs were ruined and he escaped because of me."

"Searching for trouble is the purpose of exploration, and the stone of the realm must be peeled off. In this way, what is the difference between young and old?" Beixuan shook his head, with a thoughtful look on his face, "But why are difficult beasts of this age? No one has discovered it, and it has grown up to this day? More than thirty years ago, there was a forum on Taoism. At that time, many Confucian scholars entered the forest, and with the people who usually wandered around, this mountain range was not considered hidden. Why? No one found it?”

After thinking about it, Bei Xuan was actually deep in thought, completely forgetful of 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 sleeves, reminding him: "Master, you can't be foolish at this moment. There are so many people waiting. Besides, you can only rely on what you see in front of you." "How can we deduce the reason behind it? It's better to go into the cave and explore carefully, maybe we 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 just came back to his senses. His face had the smell of someone just waking up from a big dream. There was no trace of forgery in his words, which showed that they were true. I fell into deep thought, with nothing in mind.

Fortunately, except for Qiu Yan, others had already known about his problem and didn't take it to heart.

Qiu Yan, on the other hand, had a learning attitude. After hearing the old man's name for Bei Xuan, he secretly guessed his identity and had a general idea: "A person with a literary heart calls Bei Xuan 'young master'..." "

This title is usually what the servants and servants call the young master's family. However, people who can unite their literary hearts, most of whom have extraordinary literary talent and knowledge, will lower themselves into slaves?

Therefore, this old man should be a domestic servant. Judging from the name Beixuan calls him, he is different from ordinary servants.

"This person is probably a scholar from the Bei family. He has knowledge but cannot take the exam."

The children of the aristocratic families are all accompanied by bookboys and long-term followers to accompany them to study. Many of them are extremely talented. They can also have good knowledge, and even be appreciated by nobles, quit slavery, and achieve good stories. There are many such things in history. example.

Bei Xuan was reminded by the old man, glanced at the three white stones, and said with a smile: "It is a coincidence that these three stones exist, but they happen to be divided among Brother Qiu, Brother Zhou and Brother Huang."

After saying this, he swept his sleeves, and two white stones flew up from the ground, fell on his hands, and were handed over to Qiu Yan and Zhou Meng by Beixuan solemnly.

"Ask the three of you to take action. We promised to give something in return. Now of the 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 it like this. Do you have any objections?"

"Brother Bei is fair and considerate in his dealings." All three said 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, you will give out two. But the prospecting, finding the cave, and even attracting the dangerous beasts and laying out the layout are all your credit. Logically speaking, it should take half, or even more, but in the end, the helper took away the majority?"

When this woman spoke, her eyes were clear and her voice was crisp. Although the words she spoke offended others, they did not feel offensive, but instead gave people the feeling of being cheerful and cheerful.

Beixuan chuckled lightly and said: "From now on, the people of Lu will not redeem others."

"My cousin is using allusions to educate people again," Tang Qing also laughed, "These are the words of the sages who educate sages. They say that people should be kind and seek repayment, thereby advocating order. One person cannot be virtuous. for the benefit of all peoples.”

"Since you know, why bother to say more," Bei Xuan said seriously after hearing this, "You may think that we have contributed a lot, but you have to know that prospecting and finding caves is not difficult. Anyone with a literary mind can do it. To do this is nothing more than spending time. Brother Qiu and others have a literary heart. Let alone looking for mines, even the difficult beast just now can still be suppressed by themselves. Joining forces with us is not that we are unable to do so, but It’s mutual help, how can I begrudge two realm stones?”

Seeing that Tang Qing wanted to say more, he shook his head and said, "Jingshi is just the beginning. We will help each other in the future. How can we cherish small profits and make others dissatisfied?" After saying this, he gave Qiu Yan another message on Tang Qing's behalf. Apologize to others.

"Brother Bei, you're welcome." Zhou Meng and others' expressions remained as usual. They listened to Bei Xuan's intention, and the other party wanted to show his attitude, so that in the future, several people would cooperate, and they would accumulate dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Qiu Yan smiled, but also didn't take it seriously. Instead, he became a little interested in Beixuan.

At the same time, the palm of his hand holding Shiraishi trembled slightly, his perception went deep into it, and he captured an artistic conception from it, which was firm, perseverant, and courageous to move forward.

"This white stone is called a realm stone, and the artistic conception condensed in it is completely opposite to the artistic conception exuded by the beast. However, you have to touch this stone to feel it, but it is difficult to see the slightest clue through remote sensing. It can be said to be incomprehensible. leak……"

At the same time, Bei Xuan's eyes also fell over: "From Brother Qiu's appearance, he doesn't know much about the realm stone. This stone is the condensation of artistic conception, but it does not contain the meaning of danger and retreat, but a heart of great bravery and courage. It is the two extremes of the black fog on the surface of the beast. It can be called brave and advanced, and it has the same effect as blood and masculinity. Absorbing it with the soul can help Brother Qiu step into the stage of soul nourishment."

After hearing this, the others were surprised.

"Soul nourishment? This is the second stage of the third realm," Tang Qing said directly, "Brother Qiu also practices Taoism?" Before she finished speaking, she carefully looked at Qiu Yan, her eyes flashing, "The soul body is crystal clear and shining, it is indeed cast by the soul, and in terms of purity, it is still better than mine!"

At this time, a sound of breaking through the air came from not far away, but someone flew down from the two boats, and the leader was Sun Yong.

As soon as he landed, he walked over quickly and saluted Qiu Yan and others, saying, "Meet the masters."

"Brother Sun, you came at the right time," Bei Xuan flicked his finger and shot a ball of mist over, "This thing is condensed from the thought of perseverance and courage. Take it and share it with everyone. Absorb it together. It can temper your state of mind, improve your mind, and strengthen your mind."

"Thank you for your generous gift, sir." Sun Yong saluted respectfully, collected the ball of mist, put it in his sleeve, and then continued, "I don't know if this mine cave..."

While speaking, his eyes passed Bei Xuan and fell on the cave entrance ten feet away.

This cave entrance is about one person tall and as wide as three people standing side by side. It is not pitch black inside, but flickers with a faint luster.

Bei Xuan said directly: "Since you are here, everyone can enter the cave and take what they need, but what they get belongs to them. However, the beast has not been killed and is now roaming in the cave. You should be careful when you act. It is best not to go too deep or act alone."

Just now, the beast made a desperate move, broke through the blockade with burning thoughts, escaped with a wisp of smoke, and entered the cave.

"Don't worry, sir. Sun and others know their limits and will be careful. However, although the beast is fierce, we can only retreat when we encounter it, but it can't talk in front of you. It has been severely injured just now. I think it knows how powerful it is and won't dare to act rashly again." Sun Yong got Bei Xuan's agreement, and his face showed joy, and he complimented lightly.

Bei Xuan shook his head, and then said to Qiu Yan: "Brother Qiu, do you want to refine the realm stone immediately?"

Qiu Yan put the white stone into his sleeve and shook his head: "This stone is exquisite, and I need to explore it."

Bei Xuan said: "In this case, why not go into the mine cave? On the way, Bei can tell you the key points." After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and sensed remotely, and a trace of surprise appeared behind him, "Brother Qiu's two friends have left the ship and I don't know where they went."

"My companion has his own ideas, 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 beast was violent, it almost completely covered the entrance of the cave. Qiu Yan guessed its origin at a glance and knew that it was the place where the book mine was located. Once he entered the cave, he found that it was different.

Inside the cave, it was not a deep passage as he thought, but it was very spacious, as if it was naturally formed, but different from the karst cave, it was square and gave people a sense of grandeur and uprightness.

This is not surprising. The Shilin world was not formed naturally, but was born according to thoughts. Nature is different from natural will. The things formed in it actually contain a lot of subjective factors.

However, although the cave is spacious, there are large and small holes distributed around it. There are holes in the holes. Qiu Yan glanced at it and noticed that each hole was flashing with various colors. It was bottomless and I didn’t know where it led.

"This cave is connected in all directions. If you just go forward, you may get lost in it."

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

This stalagmite is about one palm high and emits red light. Around it, there are more than a dozen stalagmites of different sizes, each flashing with different luster. The light in the cave that Qiu Yan saw came from this.

Snap!

With the sound of breaking, the stalagmite was broken by Bei Xuan and held in his hand.

Suddenly, the stalagmite changed and melted like snow under the scorching sun. In the end, only a crystal block the size of a fingernail was left in Bei Xuan's hand, which also glowed red.

"This is the book mine." Bei Xuan said, handing over the red crystal in his hand, "Brother Qiu, you might as well take it in your hand and feel it to know the truth."

After taking the crystal, Qiu Yan immediately sensed a thought from it, which flowed along his palm and merged into his soul. He spread a piece of ink in his heart and sketched a bamboo leaf, which was very lifelike.

He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wonderful! It seems that someone is splashing ink to paint in this book mine!" (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
