Chapter 59 Zhuo Bufan’s Visit
“Only one month!”
Liang Yan felt cold and asked nervously: “Uncle Master, have you seen the details of this technique?”
Zhou Yan and Lin Fei looked at each other with a wry smile.
"Nephew Liang, it's not that you and I, Master Lin, don't want to help you, but this thing is really weird, and with our ability, we can only seal it temporarily. If we want to eradicate it completely, I’m afraid you’ll have to look for another opportunity.”
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Liang Yan's mouth, but he still cupped his fists and saluted:
"Thank you to the two uncles for their generous action. I am very grateful! It is a great blessing to be able to live for another month. At least I can still Gave me a glimmer of hope."
Lin Fei heard this. Frowning, he said: "Actually, there are some classics on knowledge and knowledge in Chuan Gong Pavilion. You can go in and check it out. If you can find out what kind of skills you have, you may be able to prescribe the right medicine."
Liang Yan nodded and pointed at Lin again. Fei and Zhou Yan bowed before turning around and going out.
Lin Fei looked at Liang Yan's back and sighed: "He is quite a junior. Although his qualifications are not enough, his intelligence and heart are excellent. It is a pity that he has a bad fate."
Zhou Yan glanced at him and said: "Everyone has his or her own karma. How can you be the one to worry about the many junior Qi practitioners in Yixing Pavilion? What's more, the kindness that the seniors gave you has long been repaid. Now, you don’t need to blame yourself too much.”
Lin Fei nodded and said no more.
Liang Yan left Lin Fei's cave and felt disappointed. He didn't expect that even Lin Fei and Zhou Yan, two masters in the foundation-building stage, were helpless. How could he, a disciple at the fifth level of Qi training, crack the secret? What about this technique?
Remembering that not long ago, I had spoken so boldly, confronting the Lord of Qin Dao, vowing to break the shackles of destiny and achieve the foundation of the spiritual platform. But not long after, he only had less than a month to live, which was really a huge irony.
"Uncle Lin said that we can go to Chuan Gong Pavilion to think of a solution. Unfortunately, my previous 'letter order' has been used up. As a handyman disciple, I am not qualified to go in and borrow books again. Although I Promotion to an outer disciple is already a certainty, but I only have one month left, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait until that day.”
Liang Yan thought about it all the way and always felt that no matter what, it was a dead end. Just when he was in a state of anxiety, he had unknowingly returned to the Xinglin hut.
He suddenly felt something. He looked up and saw a person standing in the courtyard. He was dressed in a moon-white robe and a Confucian scarf. He looked elegant and unrestrained, with a sword hanging on his waist. At this moment, he was looking at himself with a smile.
"Junior Brother Liang, you are well!"
"Senior Brother Zhuo!"
The person in front of you is Zhuo Bufan. When Liang Yan saw him, he suddenly remembered that he had been busy with a lot of things recently, and he even forgot to help him refine elixirs. Counting the time he went to Yongle Town to perform tasks, he hadn't seen him for several months.
"Junior Brother Liang's practice has been advancing rapidly. We haven't seen him for two or three months, but Junior Brother Liang's aura has become more solid. He must have made great progress in the divine way!"
"Senior Brother Zhuo, why do you tease me about this? How can I get into the eyes of Senior Brother Zhuo if I am a humble person?" Liang Yan said absently.
Zhuo Bufan smiled slightly and said: "Qualifications are important in cultivating Taoism, but opportunities and hard work are also indispensable. I believe that my brother is firm in Taoism and cultivates diligently. If he gets the chance in the future, , he will be able to break through his own shackles and soar into the sky."
Liang Yan knew that these were just words, and he came to him personally because of the alchemy matter.
Sure enough, Zhuo Bufan changed the subject and continued: "Junior Brother Liang, don't blame me for disturbing your practice. It's just that this 'Sword Raising Pill' is very important to me. Once I start taking it, it cannot be interrupted during the period. Yes. Ever since you helped me make elixir last time, There are not many pills left. I would like to ask Junior Brother Liang to help me refine it today. As for the reward, I can increase the number of Spirit Gathering Pills to five. If Junior Brother Liang has any other requests, you can also put them forward. , these are all negotiable.”
After hearing this, Liang Yan smiled bitterly and said: "Senior Brother Zhuo, it's not that I don't want to help you, but now I can't protect myself. I'm afraid that after I refine this furnace, there won't be another furnace!" Zhuo Bufan was surprised after hearing this and asked Said: "How do you say this?"
Liang Yan did not hide anything. He told him one by one about how he and Tang Diexian came down the mountain, how they met the blood maniac, how they were infected by the blood maniac's secret technique, and his current situation. He only omitted the details of the fight. Go, and there are some secret places that are also mentioned in one stroke.
When he said that he only had one month left to live, even a man as calm as Zhuo Bufan couldn't help but be shocked.
“Is there such a thing?!” Zhuo Bufan stared at Liang Yan, his eyes flickering, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
The two of them were speechless for a while, and both stayed in silence. After a long time, they suddenly heard Zhuo Bufan ask: "Junior brother Liang, is there any other way to save himself?"
Liang Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Even The two masters in the foundation-building period are helpless, and Liang is even more helpless. The most unlucky thing is that I have not yet completed my six-year period and am still a handyman disciple. Many of the sect's resources cannot be used, and a disaster is imminent. Give me only one month "I have no idea what to do."
Zhuo Bufan nodded and suddenly said seriously: "If you say so, Zhuo does have a method, but this method is too deviant. Junior Brother Liang should listen to it. ?"
Liang Yan was shocked when he heard this, and immediately replied: "Brother Zhuo, please speak clearly!"
"Did you know that there is a treasure in the sect called the Seven Star Soul Lamp?"
"Seven-star soul-attracting lamp?"
"Yes!" Zhuo Bufan said: "This seven-star soul-attracting lamp is a secret treasure of the divine soul type, which is specially designed to defeat evil magic. Ordinary disciples can exorcise evil spirits when illuminated by this lamp. Avoid disasters and nourish the soul. All disciples in the sect who are possessed by evil spells or who practice spiritual consciousness-type techniques do not want to be illuminated by this lamp. Since the red light group in the body is aimed at the evil magic of the soul, the seven-star soul-inducing lamp must be its nemesis!"
"There is such a treasure!" Liang Yan was moved in his heart, but then he smiled bitterly: " This treasure is so precious that not every disciple will have the opportunity to receive it.”
“You are not right. Wrong." Zhuo Bufan nodded and said: "This seven-star soul-inducing lamp is located in a forbidden area of the canyon of the sect. Every five years, the sect will distribute the seven-star soul-inducing lamp to the disciples who practice the secret arts of the soul. The invitation letter, and the disciples invited must pass a test of each lineage. For example, the disciples of the array lineage need to break the formation, and the disciples of the talisman lineage need to fight the talisman. , Alchemy disciples need to open a furnace to refine elixirs, and as for the four disciplines of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, they naturally have to show their talents. Only disciples who pass the tests of each discipline can be qualified to enter the canyon and be illuminated by the seven-star soul-inducing lamp. "
After hearing this, Liang Yan hurriedly asked: "When will the next invitation be issued? "
"Unfortunately, it will take another two years for the Seven-Star Soul-Lamp to be opened next time."
"What? Then I have no chance!"
Zhuo Bufan shook his head and said : "Not necessarily, there happens to be a huge Opportunity!"
Then he leaned close to Liang Yan's ear and whispered: "The canyon where the seven-star soul-inducing lantern is located has seven entrances, corresponding to seven types of tests, and each entrance has a member of our clan. The elders are guarding it and are not open to the public. At that time, no one would be allowed to enter and break through the barrier. But now the Miao Calligraphy Conference is approaching. This is the first grand event of our sect. It is a great opportunity for every monk above the foundation building stage. At that time, these guardian elders will also participate. Miao Calligraphy Conference and Temporary Leaving Open, let the qi training disciples under the sect take over for half a day, and this is the only chance for Junior Brother Liang."
After hearing this, Liang Yan was shocked: "You want me to sneak into the canyon and steal the Seven Stars privately. Soul-inducing lamp?”
Zhuo Bufan nodded and said: "If there is no other way, this is probably the only way for Junior Brother Liang to survive. However, if he is discovered by the sect afterwards, according to the law of the court, although he will not be expelled from the sect or abolish his cultivation, at least he will face a wall. Forty or fifty years is indispensable. As for the choice, it depends on Junior Brother Liang himself. "I'm done."
Liang Yan was silent for a while, then suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid Liang has no other choice. Facing the wall and being punished is ten thousand times better than dying. As long as he survives, everything in the future will be saved." Maybe everything will turn around!”
