Chapter 185: The past is known now
At that time, Gu Qingshan passed away. During the ceremony, he invited the wood demon to discuss Taoism with his ancestor. Many people saw it at that time, and the matter could not be hidden.
After this, Ancestor Xiang went out into the mountains to find his way, and outsiders thought that the wood demon was traveling with him.
It’s only been two or three years, so how come it fell into a secret place and there was no news from it?
You know, it is normal for Nascent Soul to explore the secrets and go out for five or six years and hundreds of years. But it’s only been two or three years, and you can’t bear it anymore?
As a monk in the late Nascent Soul stage, Patriarch Xiang is recognized as the number one among the three sects, so he must have extraordinary means.
Although the wood demon old Taoist is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, he has strange magical powers, and he is from the same family as Sister Zhen. He is also from a very high level, and his knowledge should be higher than that of Sister Zhen. He might still have a secret treasure in his hand.
Not to mention whether Ancestor Xiang invites any more helpers, Ancestor Xiang and Wood Demon alone need both means and knowledge. No one dares to underestimate them.
But something went wrong. So what is hidden in the secret realm? Ancestor Xiang must have gone for the great road. Could it be that he fell into the mysterious realm?
Just thinking about it gave me a headache, so Lin Bai simply stopped thinking about it.
It's not Xiaoxiao Jiji's turn to have a headache. The one who should have a headache is Yue Fengshu, who is leaning against the ancestor. Aunt Gu also has a headache. She wants revenge and needs help from the ancestor. There are also many people from the Qiaoshan Sect. Without Ancestor Xiang, the status of the Qiaoshan Sect will inevitably drop significantly.
Although the Qiaoshan Sect still has three Nascent Souls, Patriarch Cheng will die in another hundred or two hundred years. If the Qiaoshan Sect does not produce any new talents by then, there will only be two Yuanyings in the Qiaoshan Sect, which is inferior to the Jiuyin Mountain and Yunxia Sects.
Lin Bai thought about it, just in time to ask Gu Yao for the formation, and take the opportunity to feel what kind of attitude Gu Yao had.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Bai looked at Qu Ruyi again. The eldest sister looked tired.
Lin Bai made up his mind to keep Miaomiao away from her in the future so as not to get into bad habits.
"I really didn't realize that you respect Hu... Fairy Shen Yu." Qu Ruyi leaned against the short table, her left leg crossed on her right leg, her feet swaying, and she didn't look like a direct descendant of the Nascent Soul Sect.
"Fairy Shen Yu is a newly promoted Nascent Soul, and she is also a person who shows off her destiny. I should respect her both emotionally and rationally." Lin Bai looked serious.
Qu Ruyi stared at Lin Bai. Although she was unreliable, she had a brain after all.
She pondered for a while, then reluctantly sat up straight and said, "Me too!"
Neither of them are good birds. Lin Bai committed murder and arson, and Qu Ruyi was cynical. But when it came to the Nascent Soul Fox, although they didn't know whether they were peeping in secret, they both chose to obey.
At least, I have to give him some face.
"Ahem," Qu Ruyi regained her composure, "Xiuxiu doesn't know what's going on. I asked my ancestor to deduce the fortune, but I got nothing."
"Xiuxiu must be in Fairy Shen Yu's retreat, with Nascent Soul by her side. How could Qu Chengjia deduce it?" Lin Bai laughed.
"Then why didn't we deduce you?" Qu Ruyi asked suddenly.
"If my whereabouts are deduced, can you still see me?" Lin Bai still smiled.
Qu Ruyi was silent for a while and said: "My ancestor is always sincere to Xiuxiu."
"Let's talk about you." Lin Bai changed the subject and said, "Are you really going to go out with that old cultivator with white eyebrows?"
"It hasn't been decided yet." Qu Ruyi has a brain after all, "If there is no danger, it doesn't hurt to go and have a look."
She looked at Lin Bai and asked, "Don't you really want to go?"
"I'm addicted to practice and can't extricate myself." Lin Bai said.
Qu Ruyi looked at Lin Bai carefully, and then said: "Now you live in a better place. The earth fire is strong, the spiritual energy is abundant, and there are people to take care of you." She pointed to the surroundings, "Is it possible that you are rich and timid? ”
Lin Bai had never succeeded in the radical technique, let alone Qu Ruyi's radical technique, which was so clumsy that it was not as powerful as Miaomiao.
"Indeed." Lin Bai smiled calmly.
When Qu Ru noticed Lin Bai's generous admission, he frowned and said, "How brave were you in the cave that day? You fought desperately to kill the enemy and exchanged injuries for injuries. Why are you completely without any heroic spirit now? It seems like..." She tilted her head and thought for a while, and finally remembered the saying in Huaxi Town, and said: "It's as if you are used to living a life of wife and children on the hot bed, and you have no spirit at all! Instead, you shrink back, as if you were a different person."
< br>
Miaomiao is better than you. Lin Bai sneered again and again and mocked: "You have been locked up for a long time and you can't wait to find something to do, right? Xiuxiu is nowhere to be seen, and Fairy Shen Yu doesn't show up. How can I have the leisure to go out?" At this point, Lin Bai clenched his fist and pounded the ground, "Now I only focus on practicing, hoping to reach a higher level so that I can find a way to meet Xiuxiu. The road is difficult, the sun and the moon are passing by, how can I be distracted from other things?"
< br>
"You don't have to worry too much. Although Fairy Shen Yu's mouth is...ahem, a bit witty, she is always very kind and never hurts anyone." Qu Ruyi actually said something to explain.
"I'm always worried." Lin Bai shook his head and said: "Why don't you go? After all, come to Xinyi Square and I'll introduce you to some friends. Even if you were imprisoned for a few years like you I also know one who is in confinement.”
"Real or fake?" Qu Ruyi didn't believe there was anyone more miserable than her.
"It's true." Lin Bai smiled.
Qu Ruyi has a casual temperament and wants to meet her immediately.
The two chatted, and Lin Bai took her to meet Jiang Yatou. Both of them had been in solitary confinement for several years, and after chatting, they actually felt that they were in the same boat.
After they finished chatting, Qu Ruyi wanted to go to Fengming Mountain again.
When she was building the foundation in the past, she had some connections with Zhu Jianshui and Zhu Yushu, so she wanted to take a look.
Qu Ruyi took Miaomiao with him, and Lin Bai was pulled into the black tower by Jiang Yatou.
After eating the fruit, Lin Bai left comfortably and returned to the cave.
After thinking about the situation in Qiaoshan Sect for a while, Lin Bai touched the chain on his hand and headed towards Qingyun Mountain of Qiaoshan Sect.
"I already have some experience with the first seven formations in the book "Entering the Formation". I don't know when I will be able to refer to the later ones in detail." Lin Bai pressed the teacup with his hand and stated his purpose.
Gu Yao didn't believe it when she heard this, but considering that Lin Bai didn't like to talk big, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Really?"
"My ancestor gave me the Formation Book, how dare I live up to my ancestor's high expectations?" Lin Bai looked serious.
No matter what you think in your heart, you should show your loyalty from time to time. Now it's under Aunt Gu's butt, she might be listening.
Moreover, being a little more impressive can also make Aunt Gu take her more seriously.
Gu Yao was silent for a while, and then asked a few more questions. Seeing that Lin Bai responded fluently, she had really put in the effort.
"The ancestor really has a keen eye for talents, and he saw his talent in formations early."
"Feixue is quite different from him. He clearly knows it, but he avoids it. He is clearly a gentleman who is not greedy for beauty and respects himself."
"This man is also good at alchemy and has the ability to make talismans. He can be called an all-rounder."
Gu Yao thought about it for a long time before she nodded unconsciously and said with a smile: "A wise eye recognizes talents, my ancestor is really wise!"
"..." Lin Bai saw her praising the aunt, so he quickly followed up, "I am truly blessed to be able to follow such a wise person!"
Gu Yao nodded heavily and took out another thick booklet.
Lin Bai took it and saw the four characters "Gu's Formation Explanation" on it, which was clearly a collection of the Gu family.
I have studied the book "Entering the Formation" carefully before, and I know that it is very thorough and instructive, and explains the principles of the formation in a simple and profound way, even breaking away from the stereotypes of the formation, and often has enlightening words.
The Gu family's formation solution given by Gu Yao is different. It has been carefully studied by the children of the Gu family in the past generations.
When it comes to the views on battle formation, it is far inferior to the book "Enter the Battle". But the valuable thing is that Gu's Formation Explanation describes the arrangement methods of many formations, and also explains in detail the materials required for the formation.
Lin Bai flipped through the formation book and found a total of seventy-two formations. Most of them are common formations, and there are also many five elements, such as water attribute and earth attribute.
There are also a few trapped formations and confusing formations. There are no weird and wonderful formations, they are all clearly visible and tangible.
"The way of formation is to turn decay into magic. It is difficult to defeat foundation building by practicing Qi, and it is difficult to defeat golden elixir by building foundation. However, if you rely on the corresponding formation, you may not be unable to cross the border and kill the enemy." Gu Yao was very confident, "The formation Teachers are rare, and my Gu family has not produced many. What is recorded in this book is obtained from past generations, and some of them are obtained from outside.”
"Isn't there a teleportation array?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"The teleportation formation is the most difficult to achieve." Gu Yao immediately transformed into a teacher and whispered: "To set up this formation, you need to have space-like magical powers first. The second step is to anchor two places and form two bodies at once. Even if the formation is successful, the distance it can be transmitted will depend on the person and the place. Of course, if you are a high-level practitioner, it will be different. "This is similar to the escape method," Lin Bai said.
"You do know its essence." Gu Yao smiled, "The escape method is your own magical power, and the teleportation array borrows the power of heaven and earth, which allows ordinary people to obtain the escape method magical power."
Speaking of this, Gu Yao exclaimed: "Isn't this the wonder of the formation? Borrowing the power of others, the power of the terrain, the power of heaven and time, and even the power of the laws of heaven and earth, become one's own. Use.”
After talking about the things in the book for a long time, Lin Bai finally understood it, but Gu Yao couldn't either.
The two of them sat cross-legged and exchanged their formations.
After chatting for a long time, they opened the Gu Family Formation Explanation again. The two of them flipped through page after page, each expressing his or her own opinion.
After two days of commotion, Lin Bai planned to leave.
"Then... I'm leaving first?" Lin Bai looked at Gu Yao and wondered why he didn't ask for my pen and ink.
"Just go ahead," Gu Yao waved her hand, still lowering her head to draw the formation on the ground, "I'll figure it out after I solve this formation."
"Ancestor, you don't have anything to say?" Lin Bai was not used to it. He was asked for too much, and sometimes he felt empty when others didn't want him.
"It's true, I almost forgot!" Gu Yao immediately raised her head.
Lin Bai smiled confidently and said in his heart that Aunt Gu still couldn't forget me after all, and she wanted to ask for more.
"The ancestor has said that you should practice well and don't be greedy for other things." Gu Yao said solemnly.
Nothing else? Having sex? No more blinding charms? Is Aunt Gu not going to cause trouble? Is it true that Ancestor Xiang fell into a secret realm?
Lin Bai first told some nonsense about his ancestor's overwhelming kindness, and then asked: "There have been some rumors coming from Longmenfang recently. What did our ancestor say?"
"What rumors?" Gu Yao asked.
"..." Lin Bai pinched his eyebrows and said: "The recent news from Longmenfang is that Ancestor Xiang fell into the secret realm."
"Do you believe this?" Gu Yao immediately glared, "Ancestor Xiang is the number one among the three sects. His Taoism is superb and he has become a Taoist. Three or four Nascent Souls are no match for him! Who can trap Ancestor Xiang? ? Unless it’s chemical..."
When she said this, she stopped talking. After being silent for a while, he came to the pool and reached in to stir.
Lin Bai watched silently, wondering when he would be qualified to disturb Auntie Gu!
"The ancestors said that rumors only stop with the wise." Gu Yao said.
Co-author I am not a wise man! Lin Bai quickly admitted his mistake and left obediently to find Zhu Jianyang.
When they arrived at the place, there were still people there, including Zhu Yuhuan and Gu Wushang.
Moreover, the aura on Zhu Yuhuan's body has changed, and she seems slightly unstable, which clearly indicates that the foundation has been successfully established.
Zhu Yushu and Zhu Yuhuan built the foundation one after another. Although the characters gradually withered, the Zhu family finally showed signs of rejuvenation.
They were not outsiders. Lin Bai also sat down and said a few words of congratulations before listening to Zhu Yuhuan talk about the opportunity to build the foundation.
"It was a near miss."
There was a smile on Zhu Yuhuan's face, "I entered the sandy land of Qianhe, and the wind seemed to be rotating around the middle of the sandy land, getting bigger and bigger as it went in. I walked for half a month, and when I could no longer move forward, I sat on the ground and enlightened. , So far it’s done.”
"What danger did you encounter?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.
"I only saw some low-level monsters, but they weren't very dangerous." Zhu Yuhuan said with a smile.
Comparing people to each other makes people angry. When they both entered the sandy land of Qianhe Valley, Sister Pei almost gave up her life, but Zhu Yuhuan only suffered some wind and sand blowing on her face.
"Have you seen any other abnormalities?" Lin Bai asked again.
"At that time, I only heard the sound of wind and sand. But when I was building the foundation, I was connected to the sky, and I felt vaguely, as if someone was spying on me." Zhu Yuhuan said.
"It'll be nice to come back in peace." Lin Bai smiled and asked no more questions.
After everyone chatted for a while, Lin Bai went to find Gu Fang and Gu Feixue again.
After maintaining the old friendship, Lin Bai went to see Sister Huanhuan.
"Sister Huanhuan, you are so kind." Lin Bai felt comfortable physically and mentally after being served. He no longer wanted to let Sister Huanhuan work hard, and only dedicated himself to serving her.
After Yang Huan was intoxicated, she became even more gentle, leaning against Lin Bai and talking non-stop.
The two had a heart-to-heart talk, and Lin Bai left.
After returning to the cave, he studied Gu's Formation Explanation by himself.
A few days later, Qu Ruyi came again, taking Pei Ning with him.
The three old acquaintances chatted for a long time and went to Yuhu together. They called Jiang Xiaobai and summoned many children of the Jiang family to preach in turn.
After finishing his work, Qu Ruyi went out to the wild again. Pei Ning advised her to focus on cultivation, Lin Bai advised her to get over it, and Miaomiao asked her to bring back some good things.
Another half month later, Lin Bai arrived at the fourth level of foundation building and entered the middle stage of foundation building.
The sea of qi expands, and the spiritual energy is like water, holding more. Regardless of magical powers or magic, they have all improved. With the enhanced spiritual consciousness, the flying knife becomes more arbitrary.
"The fifth level of Hunyuan, the fourth level of foundation building. Before, I was not inferior to the monks in the late stage of foundation building, but now I can do it more easily."
Suppressing his intention to test the sword, Lin Bai took out the Gu's formation solution and studied it carefully.
Half a day later, there was another guest outside the door.
If a person sees it for the first time, he will be happy, but if he sees it for many times, he will become bored again. Especially the person named Qu Ruyi is not comfortable at all.
"Brother Spin the Wheel!" Qu Ruyi, smelling of alcohol, came forward and sat down laughing.
Lin Bai lost his temper, so he took off the gourd from his waist and drank with her.
After chatting for a while, I realized that Qu Ruyi still had contact with Bai Mei and others.
And that Baimei actually had some tricks up his sleeve, and actually found a casual cultivator.
"Do you still want to go?" Lin Bai planned to grab Pei Ning and try to persuade Qu Ruyi again.
"I can't go!" Qu Ruyi sighed, "We originally agreed to leave in a few days, but today the Qinglian Sect suddenly issued an order not to allow the Foundation Establishment disciples to go out. Neither Ye Ruoqing nor Li Xinghe can come out because of this. Yellow.”
"What happened to the Qinglian Sect?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"Who knows?" Qu Ruyi was helpless, "I went to find Pei Ning, but the Tianchi sect was also closed. After finding Yao Qianyuan, I found out that the Four Golden Pill Sect did not allow those who had recently established a foundation to go out, saying that they had important matters. .”
After hearing this, Lin Bai recalled that when he first entered Xinyi Square, it happened that the Four Golden Pill Sect had changed its previous practice and actually recruited new members from casual cultivators, and Sister Pei also joined the Tianchi Sect.
At that time, Lin Bai felt that something was not right and was always wary. Later, Gu Jinzhen also talked about this matter, but did not go into details, only saying that there was another hidden story.
Now it seems that the Four Golden Pill Sect's sect's introduction of casual cultivators is probably due to today's move.
