Chapter 92: All-Dragon Banquet, Enlightenment of Dragon Veins (please order for full order)
In the end, Li Qing did not understand exactly when the green lotus flower buds grew.
With this unsolved mystery, he finished all the trivial matters and finally started his first trip after establishing the foundation.
It’s not right to say that he is traveling. He plans to visit the five fellow foundation builders around Xuefeng Lake one by one, and then transfer to the Lu family to ask for the foundation building skills.
The first stop of his trip was the nearest Yanglong Lake Sangjia.
It is said that two thousand years ago, Yanglong Lake was just a harbor in Xuefeng Lake.
A Nascent Soul Master obtained a dragon egg here, so he moved the mountains and cut off the rivers to separate the dragon-raising lake, and created a spiritual vein at the bottom of the lake for the young dragons to grow. need.
Later, the True Lord Yuanying rode a dragon and left, and the lake was successively occupied by many forces.
Eight hundred years ago, the first ancestor of the Sang family learned the fragments of the True Lord’s experience in raising dragons in the lake.
This ancestor was a clever man who knew current affairs, so he immediately handed over the fragments to the Zhou court.
Afterwards, the imperial court rewarded Yanglong Lake directly for its merits and granted it to the Sang family, ending hundreds of years of disputes.
Because the Li family sent the greeting card early, the Sang family was well prepared.
As soon as Li Qing arrived at the Sang family land, Sang Yuwan, the foundation-building ancestor, was already waiting outside: "Fellow Taoist, I haven't seen you for several months, but your style is still the same!"
Li Qing met him with courtesy. , the other members of the Sang family saluted him again, and after being so polite, the two foundation-building monks showed humility to each other and entered the family territory.
Unlike Qinghe Valley, Yanglong Lake has been cultivated by the Sang family for eight hundred years, and the spiritual veins of the surrounding hills and central lake have long been sorted out.
Looking around, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the spiritual energy turns into a light mist, pouring and flowing between the mountains and rivers. Various mortal and spiritual plants carry the spiritual mist and are full of vitality.
Li Qing even saw a lot of cranes flying among the mountains, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
When he entered it, he felt physically and mentally refreshed: "With such a scene, my Li family is not as good as me!"
Sang Yuwan laughed: "Fellow Taoist Li is too modest. Your spiritual attainments are extraordinary. I think in a few years, Qinghe Valley will be a different scene.”
When guests come from afar, there will be a banquet.
Sang Yuwan set up a "Full Dragon Banquet" to entertain Li Qing at a waterside pavilion by Yanglong Lake.
Compared with the shabbyness of Li Qing's foundation-building banquet, the Sang family's small banquet was full of luxury.
Sang Yuwan picked up the jade pot and poured a glass of bright red spiritual wine for Li Qing: "This is my family's unique dragon blood wine. Please taste it, fellow Taoist."
Li Qing raised his glass. , put it in front of his nose and sniffed lightly, and a rising aroma of wine penetrated into his heart.
“I’ve heard about the name of Dragon Blood Wine for a long time, and it’s a blessing to have the opportunity to taste it today!” Li Qing smiled heartily, raised his glass and drank it down.
This wine is not spicy, but has a mellow sweetness that lingers in the taste buds. Li Qing thought about it for a while, then his throat moved slightly and he swallowed the wine.
The next moment, a scorching breath exploded from the stomach pouch, turning into steaming flaming gas, spreading along Li Qing's spiritual veins and into his acupoints.
Sang Yuwan looked at Li Qing with a smile. Li Qing held the wine glass and smiled back: "Fellow Taoist, this wine tastes really overbearing!"
This dragon blood wine, It is refined and brewed from dragon seed essence and blood from Yanglong Lake, supplemented by dragon blood rice, ambergris and other spiritual materials.
If foundation-building monks with poor foundations drink it, it can also have the magical effect of tempering the body and replenishing the foundation.
However, the medicinal properties of this wine are very strong, and it is difficult for those who are new to the foundation building to absorb it in a hurry, and they will easily burp and make a fool of themselves. Sang Yuwan waited for a while, but saw no other changes. His expression froze, and he smiled bitterly: "My fellow Taoist has a deep foundation, it's me who has made a fool of myself."
Li Qing is not too selfish. , shook his head and laughed: "Fellow Taoist Sang was joking. You meant well, and you entertained me with good wine and meals. Of course I appreciate it." Cloth dishes.
Such as: dragon blood tofu, stir-fried dragon liver, stewed dragon eggs, grilled dragon heart and other spiritual dishes, all are exquisite and delicious.
The dragons that are eaten are of course not real dragons, but many dragon species cultivated in Yanglong Lake. After being cooked into spiritual meals, each has its own unique characteristics and magical uses.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, this little banquet is over.
Sang Yu asked Li Qing to clear the table at night and serve him some high-quality spiritual tea. Then he asked Li Qing, "I wonder why my friend is here?"
Li Qing smiled: "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. The last time I was there, Taoist friend Sang told me the secret of raising dragons at home, and I really yearned for it."
"Just outside my cave, I have raised a group of dragon-bearded golden carps with acceptable qualifications, so I came to ask fellow Taoists if there is any way to enlighten their dragon veins.”
"Dragon-bearded golden carp? Fellow Taoist, it's good luck!" Sang Yuwan sighed, "Recently, the market for this kind of spiritual fish has been bullish. Instead of laboring to enlighten the dragon veins for it, it is better to sell it directly to the Zhou court."
< br>Li Qing thought: "What can I say about this?"
Sang Yuwan pointed to the sky: "Do you still remember, fellow Taoist, the Spirit Fish King who was captured by Xuan Palace when he was born last time?" It was transformed by the dragon-bearded golden carp. "
Li Qing naturally knew this. After all, the news was reported by himself, and the cub of the Spirit Fish King was still swimming in his cold spring.
Sang Yu was not surprised to see him in the evening, but lost some fun: "The royal family of the Zhou Dynasty has always respected dragons. This dragon-bearded golden carp has become the spiritual fish king, and its worth has doubled. Now a small fish has become Worth ten big fishes.”
Li Qingqing knew that the Zhou royal family's respect for the dragon was just an excuse, and there must be a deeper connection behind it. But this is not something he can interfere with.
He shook his head: "It's hard to buy a good heart with a thousand spiritual stones. The fish in my pond are quite good, and I don't plan to exchange them for spiritual stones."
One of his Dragon Beard Golden Carp has outstanding qualifications and is worth cultivating. Secondly, Chaoyin’s feelings must also be considered. After all, the "head fish" among the fry has become half of Chaoyin's car.
Sang Yuwan stopped persuading and began to introduce the enlightenment plan of the dragon-bearded golden carp to Li Qing.
“Before enlightening a dragon, you must first think clearly about its purpose. If it is a spiritual pet, a beast, or even a mount, you must simultaneously enlighten it.”
"The opposite is true for those raised for food. It is necessary to seal off their spirituality when they are ignorant. In this way, there will be no harm to the world when slaughtered. I don't know what kind of friend you want?"
Of course Li Qing He was inclined to raise it for food, but considering Chaoyin's feelings, he still said: "Just use it as a spiritual pet. There are dragon species in the pond, which can add some fairy spirit."
He paused. After a pause, he added: "If it were bigger, it would be good to be used as a coolie pulling carts."
Sang Yuwan stretched out his hand and nodded Li Qing: "I see just now, fellow Taoist I was excited to eat, but I thought I didn’t mean what I said.”
Li Qing smiled and said, “Young Taoist Sang, please tell me how much does it cost to transform the dragon veins?”
Sang Yuwan smiled and said: "If it were someone else, it would naturally cost a lot. But I won't take any money from you, Taoist friend. I am only willing to exchange for a promise from you Taoist friend."
Li Qing couldn't help but frown: "I never do it. Love owes favors Please let me know the price of the debt."
Sang Yuwan waved his hand: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, please listen to me."
