Chapter 60 Three Things
Zhuo Bufan was not surprised at all by Liang Yan's answer. He nodded and said, "If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. What's more, Junior Brother Liang is extremely talented in the formation line. It is unknown whether the pavilion master will be given a lighter punishment in the future."
Liang Yan bowed respectfully to Zhuo Bufan and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your guidance. Please inform me of the location of the canyon. On the day when the Miao Calligraphy Conference is held, I will take the risk."
Zhuo Bufan waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, if you want to enter the canyon, you need to pass one of the seven tests, and Junior Brother Liang. Your talent must be to 'break the formation', but if you want to successfully break the formation, you must prepare three things."
Liang Yan said: "Oh? I don't know which ones?" >
Zhuo Bufan said: "They are monkey wine, intoxicating incense and Tianbao copper coins. With these three things, you can successfully enter and break the formation, otherwise it is just empty talk."
Liang Yan listened scratch after The leader said: "Junior brother has little knowledge. I don't know any of the three things that Senior Brother Zhuo mentioned. Can you please help Brother Zhuo shed some light on this?"
"Of course." Zhuo Bufan nodded and said: "This is the The same spirit monkey wine is brewed by a spiritual beast called the Monkey King. It tastes mellow and sweet, and it also has the effect of nourishing the spiritual energy of the monks. The Monkey Spirit itself is not too strong, and it is generally used for practicing Qi. It looks like a fifth or sixth floor, but it usually lives in groups in the mountains and forests, and is good at fighting in groups, so it is still very difficult to deal with. "
"I wonder where monkeys of this size usually live?" Liang Yan interrupted and asked. .
“The Monkey King is not uncommon, and is found throughout the Zhao Kingdom. The closest one to us is Pingfeng Mountain in the west, and it takes almost three days for my junior brother to travel there.”
Zhuo Bufan paused, then continued: "As for this second intoxicating fragrance, it is the unique secret of Wenxiang Sect, a small cultivation sect in Zhao State. This Wenxiang Sect is mostly women, and they are good at many heresies. They are not a good person. Dealing with Zong "Junior Brother Liang must be particularly careful."
Liang Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me, where is the Wenxiang Sect?"
Zhuo Bufan said, "Wenxiang Sect." Zong is far away from here, even if we drive things away It will take six or seven days to go back and forth. I am afraid that my junior brother will not be able to make it in time for the Miao Calligraphy Conference. However, by coincidence, several small cultivation sects in Zhao State are jointly organizing an exchange meeting recently, and the Wenxiang Sect has also sent people. Came to participate, and the exchange meeting The location is on Pingfeng Mountain. Since this intoxicating incense is their own secret recipe, it must be exchanged for some other resources." "In this case, Liang is lucky. ." Liang Yan laughed to himself.
"Haha, it is said that the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and humans can escape one of them. Although Heavenly Dao is ruthless, there is a glimmer of hope in everything. I guess this is the glimmer of hope that Heavenly Dao has left for you. ”
After hearing this, Liang Yan shook his head and said, "Brother Zhuo, please stop teasing me. Let's talk about the third thing."
Zhuo Bufan touched his nose and smiled: "This third thing is Tianbao. Copper coins are not magical treasures. In the secular world of Zhao, the emperor of the previous dynasty used skilled craftsmen from all over the country to cast a total of twelve copper coins, which were known as "Tianbao Copper Coins" in history. Later, the former dynasty perished. twelve coppers The money was scattered among the people and became an extremely precious antique toy. "How could it be possible to find this Tianbao copper coin in such a big country in such a short time?"
"Otherwise!" He shook his head and said: "As far as I know, there is a disciple named Ma among the calligraphers. It seems that he got a Tianbao copper coin last year. As long as this person is willing to give in, it will be twice the result with half the effort."
"That's it!" Liang Yan suddenly said.
"This is basically the situation." Zhuo Bufan continued: "No matter what my junior brother plans, he must take countermeasures early and go back as soon as possible. It is less than half a month before the Miao Calligraphy Ceremony is held. If you miss this opportunity, wait until the guardian elder comes back. , Junior Brother Liang will never have any chance again."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhuo, for reminding me!" Liang Yan looked solemn, then bowed to Zhuo Bufan and said seriously: "Zhuo Bufan. Senior brother told me, Liang is extremely grateful. If he is lucky enough to survive this time, he will do three things for senior brother Zhuo, no matter how hard it is, no matter how hard it is, go through hell and fire!"
Zhuo Bufan said to Liang with a smile. pull up, He patted his shoulder and said, "Junior Brother Liang, you don't have to be like this! I also want Junior Brother to live as long as possible. If Junior Brother is gone, who should I turn to to make elixirs?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, no longer. Talk a lot. Zhuo Bufan raised his hand to sacrifice the fixed light sword. After the two rushed back to Cuizhu Peak, Liang Yan re-deployed the spirit gathering array for Zhuo Bufan and helped him start the alchemy furnace. Considering Liang Yan's special situation, he practiced twice as many elixirs as usual this time. At least in the next few months, Zhuo Bufan will not be short of elixirs. This is also Liang Yan's own intention. After all, he will not be short of elixirs this time. It can be said that it was a desperate matter. Once it failed, it would be the end of death. Zhuo Bufan was not related to him, but he was so helpful to him. He was very grateful in his heart.
After leaving Zhuo Bufan's cave, Liang Yan rushed to Lin Fei's residence without stopping. Lin Fei was obviously stunned when he saw Liang Yan for the second time in one day. After Liang Yan explained his purpose, Lin Fei nodded silently.
"Old senior, I have helped as much as I should, and I hope that this junior you are interested in will be a good person!" Lin Fei said silently as he looked at Liang Yan's leaving figure.
The next morning, it was just dawn.
At the entrance of the valley of Yixing Pavilion, on top of a huge rock, was a drunkard with his breasts exposed. He holds a wine gourd in his left hand and a paintbrush in his right hand. There is a landscape painting of flowers and birds on the mountain wall in front of him.
The drunken man took a sip from the wine gourd, raised the brush in his hand, and actually drew a stroke on the mountain wall from a distance. This stroke was like the finishing touch, and the entire painting on the mountain wall seemed to come alive. Generally speaking, waterfalls are flowing down, mountains are looming in the clouds and mist, flowers are blooming quietly, and birds are chirping crisply, as if they are about to fly out of the painting.
The drunk man looked at it carefully for a moment, and finally grinned, seeming quite satisfied.
At this moment, a young man walked out from the mouth of the valley, wearing linen gray clothes and a straw hat. He was walking in a hurry, like a rural boy.
The young man walked ten feet in front of the drunkard, stopped and said respectfully: "Zhenmai handyman disciple Liang Yan has gone down the mountain to purchase goods on the orders of his uncle. Please let the elders give you permission."
The drunk man just glanced at him and returned his gaze to the mountain wall. He said calmly: "Since I am acting under orders, can there be a letter?"
Liang Yan nodded and said: "Of course there is." He took out an envelope from his arms.
Seeing this, the drunkard raised his hand, and the envelope flew out of Liang Yan's hand, flew through the air, and landed lightly in the drunken man's hand.
He opened the envelope and looked at it for a while, then murmured: "Well, it turns out that little guy Lin Fei, why does he want you, a handyman disciple, to handle such a thing? You should know that the rules in the sect are : Unless you are promoted to an outer disciple, you cannot go down the mountain easily."
Liang Yan responded to this. He was well prepared and replied calmly: "Because the Miao Calligraphy Association is approaching, the masters and elders above the foundation level in the sect are very busy, and the disciples under Master Lin are also busy with their own affairs, so a task like this to purchase some unimportant things is not necessary." I'll leave it to the disciples temporarily."
As soon as he said this, the old drunkard's face turned red for no reason. Liang Yan saw this, and although he was surprised, he couldn't ask any more questions.
How did he know that the person in front of him just because he felt troublesome, when everyone else in the valley was very busy, he went to the entrance of the valley to be a temporary gatekeeper, so that he could be lazy and have some peace and quiet. comfortable.
"Ahem." The drunkard coughed and said, "In that case, go back quickly."
Liang Yan felt happy, saluted in the direction of the drunkard, and stepped forward Take long strides and walk towards the outside of the valley.
The drunk man looked at his leaving back and murmured: "What an interesting boy. He is obviously messy and has low qualifications, but he can actually reach the fifth level of Qi training at such a young age!" . But then he shook his head, looking unconcerned, and turned around to continue admiring his "masterpiece".
