Chapter 113: Duties in the Gate
Zhou Qing left the living room, turned the corner, and after just a few steps, he saw a woman standing under a nanmu pillar. She was five feet tall and had mirror flowers on her in a well-proportioned pattern. The reflection made her become more and more petite and exquisite, as if in the light and shadow.
Zhou Qing walked up to him and said hello, "Deacon Huang."
The person who came was none other than Huang Yue. She had a hairpin inserted sideways into her bun, which was blowing in the wind. Under the breeze, the phoenix above spread its wings, hanging down strands of gold, and said straight to the point: "Master Zhou Qing, an elder Xue from the sect has come to the cave and wants to see you."
"Elder Xue. Zhou Qing waved his hand, signaling Huang Yue to follow him. As he walked, he asked, "I don't know him. What is he here for?"
Huang Yue walked on one side, raised her thin eyebrows lightly, and said in a low voice: "I have dealt with Elder Xue before. When he came to the mansion, he most likely asked the young master if you wanted to serve in various institutions in the sect. "
"Served in various agencies in the sect." Zhou Qing nodded, thoughtfully, he stopped talking and went straight forward.
Not long after, we came to a main hall of the cave, with green tiles and stone pillars, decorated with gold and green, and the murals were mostly pine and cypress. Peace and tranquility.
Elder Xue was sitting in the inner room, with a maid waiting on him, drinking tea. Above his head, a stream of Dansha Qi rushed out, like a thousand birds lingering, flying back and forth, coming and going, making a sound The soft chirping sound.
Hearing the footsteps, Elder Xue put down the tea cup, turned his head, and saw Zhou Qing and Huang Yue walking in, one behind the other.
"Elder Xue." Zhou Qing strode in with a smile on his face and said, "I have kept you waiting for Elder Xue."
"I have just arrived." Elder Xue had white hair but a strange face. He looks very young, with soft lines on his facial features. When he speaks, his voice is gentle, but it has a special magnetism that makes people unable to help but listen.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing nodded secretly.
After the two talked for a few words, Zhou Qing saw that the time was almost up, coughed lightly and said, "Elder Xue is here, what's the matter with you?"
Elder Xue used his eyes to rest. Guang glanced at Huang Yue, who was sitting quietly aside, and smiled inwardly. With the other party here, how could Zhou Qing not know the purpose of his visit?
However, he still straightened his expression and replied: "There are several vacant positions in various major institutions in the sect, and they are urgently needed to be filled by young talents like Mr. Zhou Qing."
Zhou Qing listened. , unable to comment, he asked: "I wonder what positions there are?"
"Please take a look." Elder Xue was already prepared. He took out a gold slip from his sleeve, handed it over, and said: " That's it for now."
Zhou Qing took it and glanced at it, taking in everything. There are many positions on the golden slips, and those released are all the deacons in the sect.
"I know." Zhou Qing put the gold slip on the case and said to Elder Xue: "I have to think carefully before I can reply to you."
"Of course." Elder Xue smiled. Working in various major organizations in the sect is not a simple matter and involves a lot of work. Don't say that you won't get a reply directly, but it will be good if you can get a reply in two or three months.
After a while, Elder Xue stood up and left.
Zhou Qing would not let the other party go in vain and return empty-handed, so he sent the other party outside the hall and said: "Deacon Huang, please see Elder Xue off."
Huang Yue understood the idea and asked the maid to get the long-necked jade vase she had prepared. She followed behind with a smile on her face and said, "Elder Xue, I'll give you one as a gift."
Facing Huang Yue This acquaintance, Elder Xue glanced at the elixir pattern on the jade bottle in the hand of the maid behind her, the smile on his face became brighter, and said: "Deacon Huang, you're welcome."
When Huang Yue saw off the satisfied Elder Xue and returned to the hall, he saw Zhou Qing standing in front of the table with a vase on it. It was one foot and eight inches high, with a tree rising from the mouth of the bottle and a diameter of one foot. There were pine flowers, Bamboo leaves and plum blossoms are intertwined, the golden branches are shining, and the qiong pistils are fragrant. The height and height are uneven, reflecting the quiet eyes of the young man.
The golden slip brought by Elder Xue has been opened and placed under the vase. There are scattered shadows in the gaps between the branches and leaves.
"Master Zhou Qing." Seeing this, Huang Yue took a step forward and began to tell the purpose of Elder Xue's gift of the gold slips.
In the Zhenyi Sect, once a disciple of the sect stands out in the competition for true inheritance and attracts the attention of the top management, they will try to arrange positions for them to serve in major organizations of the sect.
On the one hand, it is to give the outstanding disciples in the sect an opportunity to serve in the organization, handle affairs, gain experience, expand their connections, and accumulate merit.
On the other hand, it also allows outstanding disciples to do good work for the sect. After all, they not only have the ability, but also the background. In order to perform well in the competition, they will definitely go all out.
"With the power of the Luochuan Zhou family, I can also give you a position, young master." Seeing that Zhou Qing did not speak, Huang Yue continued: "But the choice of people will definitely not be as wide as the sect arranged. "
Zhou Qing nodded, knowing clearly.
If the family operates, you can find a comfortable organization and position, but in this way, the family has to contribute, and the position you get will have limited training. In the process of competing for the true successor, there will be no extra points. many. And if you choose some of the institutions and positions provided by the sect, you will face a complicated situation. Once you successfully open up the situation, it will be very different.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Qing still said: "This matter is not urgent. We will talk about it later. Deacon Huang, please take the time to check the position provided by Elder Xue."
"I'll do it now."
Huang Yue agreed easily. She was no stranger to this and had done it before.
“This is it for now.”
Zhou Qing said a few more words, and then returned to the quiet room.
He waved his big sleeve, and a golden light flew out from it. After landing, it turned into a canopy-covered umbrella with a sky blue top, three eaves hanging from the top, and nine dragons and clouds intertwined with colors at the end of the handle. The golden gourd shines brightly and is full of treasures.
As soon as the precious umbrella fell, it immediately attracted the inspirations of heaven and earth from all around. Large areas of inspirations from heaven and earth gathered together, like smoke and clouds, and seemed to be real. Even as time goes by, it condenses into the color of rain, pattering.
Zhou Qing placed the futon under the umbrella. After sitting down, he immediately felt the spiritual power of heaven and earth enter his body, feeling more satisfied than before.
This is the Nine-Colored Cranked Dragon Umbrella, a very rare treasure that assists in cultivation. This time it was brought by Master Zhou Chen, which shows that the Luochuan Zhou clan is optimistic about Zhou Qing.
"Also,"
Zhou Qing took out another object from his sleeve. It was like an incense plate, made of copper with six corners. At both ends there were two cranes with wings spread, and the beaks of the birds facing each other. A ray of light dropped down and fell on the jade seat below. There are elixirs in the incense plate, rolling around, but the fragrance is trapped in the incense plate, and not a trace leaks out.
"Five-color and ten-philosophical elixirs."
Zhou Qing looked at the elixirs on the incense plate with a brilliance in his eyes.
The Ten Philosophers of Five Colors are famous.
This elixir was painstakingly refined by Zhenren Yuanying, and is specially used to help disciples who have entered the aperture realm to open the spiritual apertures in their bodies. Because it is too difficult to refine, big families such as the Luochuan Zhou family also seriously consider it and only give it to the most important disciples in the family.
Obviously, Zhou Qing is already a key disciple of the Zhou family in Luochuan, and the family has high hopes for him.
After Zhou Qing sat down, he adjusted his posture, and then continued to hit the magic formula with both hands on the incense plate. Immediately, the light flickered on the incense plate, then faded and disappeared.
At this time, the Danxiang came out of the incense plate, looking like five colors, condensing but not dispersing.
The Five Treasures and Ten Philosophers Pills are indeed rare and precious. When they are in full bloom, Zhou Chen uses a hexagonal incense plate specially designed to hold the pills to ensure that the medicinal properties of the pills are not lost. "Duh."
Zhou Qing looked at the Wucai Shizhe Dan in the incense plate, sucked it hard, swallowed it into his belly, and then turned around with his true energy. Slowly incorporated into Danhai.
Wucai Shizhe Pill is not an ordinary pill. After reaching the sea of pills, it rotates back and forth, and the power of the medicine is slowly released.
Zhou Qing looked inside himself and saw wisps of light of five colors appearing in the sea of pills. His heart moved, and he immediately activated his method, allowing the Dragon Transformation Qi to carry this light of five colors and circulate throughout his body. , practice the method of opening the spiritual orifice.
I immediately felt a difference in this operation, as if the true energy had a kind of gravity that I didn’t have before, forming countless small grasping hands, scratching back and forth in the Tao body. Back, up and down.
Zhou Qing remained motionless and continued to operate the method. The ninety-nine and eighty-one spiritual orifices that had been opened in his body were inhaling and resonating.
The sun sets and the sun rises, day after day. I don’t know how long it has passed. Zhou Qing only felt that the true energy in his body was stagnant. Then, in the Tao body, concave shapes emerged one after another, and then Behind it, there is an inexplicable connection.
"Go."
Seeing this situation, Zhou Qingyu made the cold water evaporate to open up the spiritual orifices discovered one by one. "Boom", in the end, all the spiritual orifices that were opened simultaneously sucked in the dragon's true energy, suddenly causing the water level of the true energy in the Tao body that was originally full to drop sharply, making it look much emptyer.
Actually, it is not that there is less Dragon Transformation Qi in the body, but that more spiritual orifices have been opened, and the Qi is diverted, which makes it appear empty.
"One hundred and twenty spiritual orifices."
Zhou Qing counted the number of opened spiritual orifices in his Tao body, and a bright light lit up in his eyes.
After taking the Wucai Shizhe Pill, the number of open spiritual orifices in the Sanluo Taoist body was increased from ninety-nine and eighty-one to one hundred and twenty, which already accounted for one-third of the Zhoutian spiritual orifices. This kind of progress is really amazing.
The powerful medicinal effects of Wucai Shizhe Dan are well-deserved.
"It's a pity,"
Zhou Qing looked at the empty incense plate and shook his head. The effect of Wucai Shizhe Dan is very powerful, but it can only be taken once. If you take it again, it will have no effect.
Otherwise, you can continue to take Wucai Shizhe Dan, work hard all the way, open up the whole body's apertures, and advance to the perfect level of entering the apertures.
Zhou Qing put the messy thoughts behind and re-run the "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Diagram". His innate spiritual aperture stirred up, attracting the water element, swallowed it into the body, and then turned into the Dragon Transformation True Qi, pouring into the elixir. The sea and the empty spiritual orifice.
After opening the spiritual orifices again and bringing the number of opened spiritual orifices to one hundred and twenty, the Taoist boy seemed empty. Next, he had to fill all the empty spiritual orifices with the Dragon Transformation Qi. .
When you practice for a period of time and feel tired, this spirit will retreat and practice, and another spirit will rise in the sea of consciousness.
""Spiritual Life Gold Book"."
Zhou Qing's other spirit sat upright and began to practice "Spiritual Life", one of the five qi and four methods of Zhenyi Sect taught by Zhou Chen "Book of Falling Gold".
At the level of entering the Tao, the "Spiritual Life Gold-falling Book" and "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture" are very similar, so when you start practicing, it goes smoothly and progresses quickly.
In this way, the two spirits are replaced one after another, one day and one night, practicing "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture" and "Spiritual Life Gold Book" continuously.
It’s just that in this kind of practice, even if Zhou Qing’s Sanluo Dao Body is strong enough, he can’t hold on.
Fortunately, Zhou Qing possesses the rare treasure of the Green Pond of Good Fortune. When the Dao Body cannot support it, there will be a Green Pond of Good Fortune that will shed sweet rain, carrying incredibly rich vitality to make up for the shortcomings of the Dao Body.
Zhou Qing looked at the green pond of creation in his sea of consciousness, thoughtfully.
When he was in Stone Bay, he killed the water demon and turned it into some sweet rain. In addition, the accumulation of sweet rain in the pond mainly depends on the growth of Qingchi itself day by day.
It’s just this kind of natural growth every day. When you enter the Tao, the amount of rain required is not much. Not only is it enough, but there is still no surplus. But now that I have broken through to the realm of entering the orifice, the potential of the Sanluo Dao body has been greatly developed and is much stronger than before. At the same time, the rain of the Green Pond of Creation required for each recovery is several times or even ten times that of before.
It is not feasible to rely solely on the natural rain of the Green Pond.
Zhou Qing was thinking about things and kept practicing the "Spiritual Life Gold Dropping Book". He used the state of entering the orifice to practice the methods of entering the Tao level in the "Spiritual Life Gold Dropping Book", moving forward and making progress. Fast.
As for Zhou Chen, after returning to Danyang Continent, as soon as he entered his mansion, a servant came to report and said: "Master, Zhou Buping is outside asking for an audience."
"Let him come in."
Zhou Chen said, entered the hall first, and sat down on the cloud couch in the center. The canopy behind was raised high, and the gems embellished with it emitted brilliance, illuminating the surroundings like daylight. Same, very bright.
Zhou BuTong walked in under the white light. He looked like a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked very calm. When he came to the hall, he saluted upward and called him "Sixth Uncle".
"Get up." Zhou Chen's eyes were bright, and there was a golden voice, and he said: "You are anxious to see me, is there something urgent?"
"Yes." Zhou Butong raised his head, Said: "Yu Hanchun of the Yu family has condensed the golden elixir. Although there is no confirmed information, some people have judged that the golden elixir condensed by Yu Hanchun is likely to be top grade."
"Oh."
Hearing this, Zhou Chen was a little surprised in his eyes.
According to what he knew, Yu Hanchun of the Yu family was not outstanding. He thought that he could only condense the middle-grade golden elixir. Unexpectedly, he suddenly became a top-grade one.
"In terms of top-grade golden elixir,"
Zhou Chen frowned. There is only one word difference between top-grade and middle-grade, but they are by no means the same level.
If Yu Hanchun is just a middle-grade golden elixir, you don't have to worry about it at all, but if he becomes a high-grade golden elixir, it will be different immediately.
His potential is not small, and his upper limit in the future is unknown.
“The competition is becoming more and more fierce.”
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen felt lucky. Fortunately, Zhou Qing performed very well. Otherwise, in that competition, Luochuan Zhou I'm afraid I'm going to be out of the game.
“When Zhou Qing condenses the golden elixir and officially enters the realm of elixir transformation, you can tell him.”
Zhou Chen asked Zhou Tong a few more questions and sent him away. He looked at the night outside with no expression on his face.
