Dao Fruit

The person who appeared in front of Qiu Yan turned out to be Chen Jing, who had entered the forest with him!

"This is the second level of the three levels. How could Chen Jing appear here? Is it an illusion?"

Qiu Yan and Chen Jing parted ways outside Shushan. In Qiu Yan's impression, the other party was staying on the suspended boat. After the yellow sand dispersed and the Confucian scholars entered the cave, there was no atmosphere of Chen Jing in the crowd.

Moreover, even if Chen Jing entered the cave, how could he appear here? This is the dark side of Shilin!

Questions flowed through Qiu Yan's mind. He was surprised at first, but his surprise was quickly suppressed, and his thoughts started to turn rapidly——

"Speaking of which, Chen Jing never mentioned the extent of his literary achievements. When he was selected by Zhen Zhizuo, even if he was not popular, he must have some ability, otherwise he would not be able to catch Zhen Zhizuo's eyes."

"In addition, this Chen Jing has always been mysterious, hiding many secrets, and has not revealed the purpose of entering the forest. Moreover, the Chen family behind him seems to be of great importance. From the previous tone, it should be the Xingjing family, which has the most influence in the entire Da Rui. I’m afraid it has a place in the circles of the powerful.”

"If he appears here, it is not certain whether he is an enemy or a friend."

Chen Jing seemed to have guessed Qiu Yan's thoughts. He walked over and said with a smile: "Brother Qiu, don't think too much. Chen came here just to see something. Being able to come here is actually the same as when he entered the forest. The tricks used are not enough to really break through. "

Chen Jing's smile gave people a sense of intimacy, but Qiu Yan had just experienced the baptism of a "kind elder", and Qiu Yan was not affected by this smile at all.

Suppressing his doubts, Qiu Yan changed his mind and all his experiences after entering the forest flashed through him quickly. He said directly: "Could Brother Chen's purpose have something to do with the resurrected spirit?"

"Reviving the gods?" Chen Jing shook his head when he heard this, "What kind of revival is that? But since Brother Qiu asked, it's hard to hide it..." He changed the subject: "However, Chen came here to meet the dead god. Some relationships are so important that I can’t talk to Brother Qiu about it, but you and I have traveled together and met again here, so we have a lot of fate. Chen might as well give Brother Qiu a warning.”

"I'd like to hear the details." Qiu Yan flicked his fingers.

"The Darui Dynasty has passed its peak. In recent years, there have been several confrontations with the barbarians. They lost more and won less, and the national treasury was exhausted. That's why the current reform happened. However, it is inevitable that there will be waves, and these will It has something to do with Shinto." Chen Jing looked at Qiu Yan with a flash of light in his eyes, "I know Brother Qiu is determined and has rules for his actions, but it is best to keep a distance from the new party and the old party in the future to avoid causing harm to Chi Yu."

"New Party or Old Party?" Qiu Yan thought in his mind and said. "The reform is too far away for Qiu. I just listen to Brother Chen. Could it be that Shinto is not good for Ma Lao Xiangguo, Wang Xianggong and others? There is a difference between these gods and men..."

Chen Jing waved his hands before Qiu Yan could ask more questions and said, "I'm just giving Brother Qiu a heads up. I can't say more about the specifics, and Chen's knowledge is limited. We are all mortals. We are not gods, Shinto. Things can only be thought about and guessed, and it is difficult to know the real secret. "

"How can a mortal with limited knowledge arrive here silently? How many of Chen Jing's words are true and how many are false..."

Thinking in his heart, Qiu Yan suddenly flashed a memory fragment in his mind. It was a person he had met in the Land of Relics - the former Grand Master Dong.

"The former grand master, after talking to Yin Xiao'e, vaguely revealed some information. The demise of the previous dynasty seemed to be related to Shinto. He also said similar things after hearing about Dali's reform..." Qiu Yan did not When he asked Chen Jing, he knew that the other party would not disclose any other information.

At this time, Chen Jing smiled again and said: "Okay, Chen's nonsense has delayed Brother Qiu a lot of time. This is the gap between the first level and the second level. Going forward, it is The second level, Bai Zhaoyuan came here before Brother Qiu, and now it has passed."

"Bai Zhaoyuan?" Hearing the name, Qiu Yan looked around, and then thought of something, "He's here too? Where did he come from?"

Chen Jing was not surprised and said frankly: "There are ninety-nine and eighty-one small worlds in the dark side of Shilin. Anyone who comes to the dark side will go to different places according to different Wenxin. And those who break through the three levels The first level is actually to break through the small world and come here. However, the specific content of the first level varies from person to person and is almost different every time. "

Chen Jing knew that Qiu Yan didn't know much about Shilin allusions, so he introduced them.

"I see, eighty-one places..." Qiu Yan nodded, "So, Bai Zhaoyuan and Beixuan have forgotten about other small worlds. You said Bai Zhaoyuan has been here, but what about Beixuan?"

"I don't know about that," Chen Jing spread his hands, "Chen just stayed temporarily and never thought about passing through. I heard that only Wen Pi can reach the last level."

Qiu Yan pondered for a moment, then asked no more questions, then said goodbye and strode away.

"Qiu Yan is actually here," Chen Jing sighed as he watched Qiu Yan's back disappear into the darkness, "I originally wanted to use him to enter the forest, but I didn't expect that he would run into the Sun family and let Qiu Yan take advantage of the situation. He Now that you have entered the second level, you can at least gain a volume of sage spirit. If you can go to the third level... that would be really amazing!"

Chen Jing showed a complicated expression.

"Time is also destiny. Qiu Yanxiu has Taoist skills. Once he surrenders the object of the third level, the power he can explode is much higher than that of Bai Zhaoyuan. It can be said that he can reach the sky in one step! Even ordinary gods can't hold him back, but , it is not easy to surrender, and the second level will take a lot of time..."

While Chen Jing was thinking about it, there were suddenly a few piercing sounds coming from behind him.

Hearing the sound, his expression changed slightly. He turned around and saw three things -

A pen, a paperweight, a jade basin!

The three objects flashed past and disappeared into the darkness in the distance.

Watching these three objects disappear, Chen Jing's face looked a little uncertain.

………………

"This second level seems to be more direct than the first level..."

At the same time, Qiu Yan came to a busy city after walking through the darkness.

There was a constant flow of people in front of and behind him, and shouts continued to come from both sides. Qiu Yan walked among them, and he was met with eye rolls one by one. Many people covered their mouths and noses and made expressions of disgust when passing by him.

There is no other reason. At this moment, Qiu Yan's clothes are in rags, his body is covered with dirt, and he emits a foul smell.

"Go, go, go! Where is the beggar!"

"Let's go! Don't affect my business!"

"Can you afford to pay for it if it gets stained by blocking my plaque?"

…

Sounds of reprimands came one after another, but Qiu Yan just let it go, as if he was watching others' experiences with cold eyes. Even so, something unexpected happened soon -

Hungry in the belly!

"This illusion is too real. I have been a soul since I entered the forest. My soul is immortal. If I stick to my heart and don't let distracting thoughts arise, I won't feel too much. But this hunger is hard to dispel... …”

Even if there is no physical body, as long as there is a feeling in the soul, the feeling is real.

After Qiu Yan smelled the fragrance wafting from the roadside shop, his hunger became stronger, but he could not get closer.

Misfortunes never come singly.

Not long after, the sun set in the west and the temperature became colder and colder. Qiu Yan only had one layer of single clothes on his body. Ten layers of singles were not as good as one layer of cotton. His limbs were soon filled with a cold feeling.

"Well, this second level is really weird. My soul body has actually lost the ability to change, just like a weak physical body."

The coldness gradually penetrated into his internal organs, and Qiu Yan's movements became slower and slower. In his hungry stomach, his physical strength had been depleted for a long time, and his body was getting tired. He had to find a corner to curl up to maintain his temperature and endure the hunger.

People walked by on the street from time to time. At most, they only glanced at them and no one said a word.

Suddenly, the door at the corner opened and a fierce woman walked out. She hit Qiu Yan with a rolling pin and shouted, "I'll beat you to death, you beggar. You're hiding in front of my house." Let’s destroy our family’s wealth!”

After Qiu Yan entered the second level, all his magical powers disappeared. He was so weak, how could he let the rolling stick fall? He immediately dodged, and after being hit several times, he escaped. A few steps later, he fell down at the end of an alley, with bruises all over his body and pain in his heart.

After a while, Qiu Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Three passes, I said in front of the old man that I wanted to eat when I was hungry, I wanted to be warm when I was cold, and I wanted to rest when I was tired. How long did it take? I have to experience it myself..."

Dragging his exhausted body, Qiu Yan sat up and sorted out the experiences he would encounter after the illusion in his mind. He quickly grasped the key points and had a general idea.

"The second level should also vary from person to person. It requires some understanding to break the illusion and escape. However, I don't have a clue as to what method I will use to break it. It seems that I will have to live here for a while..."

Click!

While Qiu Yan was thinking, there was a sudden sound of shattering from all around, and three cracks appeared out of thin air, and then three things fell down!

Qiu Yan's pupils shrank suddenly when he saw the three objects!

"Chunqiu pen, Wenzong paperweight, Beiming jade basin!"

When he was surprised, the Wenzong paperweight suddenly flew up with a "bang" sound, making a crashing sound in mid-air, and then remained motionless, as if it had hit an invisible wall and was imprinted on it!

Then, visible fluctuations radiated from the edge of the paperweight and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Wherever they passed, all the scenes suddenly stopped and stood still, as if time had stopped!

Immediately afterwards, the Beiming Jade Basin fell next to Qiu Yan. The sound of gurgling water came from the empty basin, as if a stream was flowing, and the Spring and Autumn Brush came directly in front of Qiu Yan and floated in the air.

Looking at the pen in front of him, a flash of inspiration flashed in Qiu Yan's mind. It was a blessing to his soul, and everything before and after suddenly became clear!

“Although I don’t know the thoughts and purposes of future generations of these three things, they are of great help now!”

After saying this, Qiu Yan stood up, raised his hand to grab the Spring and Autumn Pen, dipped the tip of the pen in the jade basin, then raised his hand to write, and actually wrote a word on the edge of the paperweight in the empty air -
