The years when I explored the fairyland

solitary peak,

In the courtyard, under the old tree.

The core personnel of Xuanzhenguan have already gathered here, needless to say Xu Cheng, Yi Huai, Fan Tiehu, and Wei Fangjie.

Then there are Qingjing Laodao, Wei Jinkui, and Fan Zhong.

Apart from Chu Zhou, these are the only seven people in Xuanzhen Temple who have embarked on the path of immortality and practiced the method of entraining qi.

Sitting under the tree, Chu Zhou sat upright. He took out a handbook, put it on the table in front of him, and pushed it in front of Old Taoist Qingjing.

"Taoist Priest, would you like to take a look at this first?"

The old Taoist Qing Jing glanced at Chu Zhou with some confusion, then picked up the manual and started reading it casually.

Next to him, Yi Huai seemed a little curious, tilting his head and peeking with squinted eyes.

Of course, he didn't understand much. He actually knew all the words, but when they were put together, he couldn't figure out what they meant.

However, the expression on Qingjing Laodao's face changed drastically. First, his eyes widened, full of shock, then incredible, unbelievable, unbearable excitement, and in the end, his hands were shaking!

"This, this, this, Master, this is..."

""Basic Alchemy" is a derivative of the medical way, refining various elixirs suitable for immortal cultivation."

After a pause, he added: "I think with your medical knowledge, this is what you need and you can make some achievements."

"Of course, of course it works, really, eh..."

The old Taoist Qingjing was so excited that he wanted to say something more, but the handwritten book had reached the end and the content stopped abruptly.

His eyes paused, and he became even more excited. He stood up and pointed at the calligraphy, and said anxiously: "Guanzhu, Guanzhu, you don't trust me. I will immediately leave Chaotian Guanzai and re-enter..."

"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

Chu Zhou quickly waved his hands and said: "Don't be excited, don't be excited, Taoist Priest Qingjing, if I didn't trust you, I wouldn't let you come here.

Take a closer look at what's at the back of this manual? "

Old Taoist Qingjing hurriedly flipped through it again, and then saw that the last page was also full of words, but there was nothing else.

Looking up in confusion, he asked, "Is there nothing behind you?"

"There's just nothing!"

Chu Zhou was a little dumbfounded, but he still said: "Don't you think it's right if you don't have it? There are only so many pages in this book, where should I write the rest of the content?"

After a pause, he said: "This book "Basic Alchemy" is about the basic content of alchemy.

It includes fire control, smelting methods, basic elixir techniques, as well as the selection of elixir furnaces, ignition of earth fire, selection and processing of medicinal materials, as well as some of the most basic elixir recipes and refining techniques. "

"Although it is the basis of alchemy, the specific content cannot be written in one hand. Therefore, this is the first volume, followed by nineteen more, all in the library.

If you want to see it, you have to get it yourself! "

"Is this it?"

"Hehehehahahaha..."

Everyone laughed, especially Wei Jinkui. He patted Qing Jing Lao Dao on the shoulder very hard and said, "This joke is so embarrassing!"

The old Taoist Qingjing was also quite embarrassed. Having lived to his age, he should be thick-skinned, but now he was blushing.

Of course, caring leads to chaos!

Chu Zhou only waited for his laughter to subside before he asked, "Taoist Master, with these, can you learn to make alchemy?"

Qingjing Laodao did not answer immediately, but flipped through the manual again, especially the front catalog. He read it very carefully.

After taking enough time to drink tea, he sighed: "It's difficult! It's difficult! It's difficult!"

“Although alchemy and medicine are somewhat related, they are not exactly the same thing.

Especially for those medicinal materials whose names are unknown, they need to be searched again, their properties determined one by one, and then tried, adjusted, optimized, etc. There are too many things that need to be done, which is not easy.

but……"

When the conversation changed, the old Taoist Qingjing raised his head and said seriously: "However, I am willing to give it a try."

At this point, he smiled again, and laughed heartily: "I thought there was no hope in this life, but unexpectedly, I have another chance. How pitiful, how pitiful!"

Unlike Chu Zhou and the others, Qingjing Lao Dao is the oldest among the people. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is old and frail. He also practices secret arts, which more or less damages the body's essence.

To be precise, it means that the 'essence, energy and spirit' have been depleted too much, so practicing will naturally lead to twice the result with half the effort.

I didn't feel anything at first, but as time went by, the gap widened.

Among everyone, even Fan Zhong, a mortal who started from scratch, has already reached the third level of Qi Entrainment.

Only Qingjing Lao Dao has just broken through to the second level, and is pitifully slow.

Perhaps the only one who can help him is this alchemy method.

Chu Zhou could understand his mood and asked again: "Taoist Master, if I give you the right to choose people, can you set up a medicine refining hall?"

"Guanzhu, what do you mean?"

"It means that fighting alone is not as good as the wisdom of everyone. You have been practicing medicine for so many years, but you don't have some friends, colleagues, or brothers who are profound in medicine?

I give you the power to recruit people. As long as they concentrate on medicine, you can recruit them, and then use this "Basic Alchemy" to lure them to see if they can win.

If there are more people, everyone can take responsibility for each other, which can also speed up the process. "

"Guanzhu, are you really worried about everything?"

Having said that, Qingjing Laodao's eyes were already flashing, thinking about possibilities and candidates.

After a moment of pause, he said: "There are indeed candidates, and some of them have better medical skills than me, but the method of immortal cultivation is ultimately the secret of my Xuanzhen concept.

In this case, there is a risk of leaking the secret. "

Chu Zhou nodded and said: "I know, but it doesn't matter. If anything is leaked, just think of it as bringing a wave of enlightenment to the world."

After a pause, he added: "Of course, even though that is said, everyone still needs to be cautious.

It would be safer to wait until our cultivation levels are up before revealing some basic knowledge.

Could the Taoist Master do this? "

The old Taoist Qingjing nodded and said: "This is an opportunity. It is a great opportunity for anyone. I naturally know it. When I get back, I will write a letter to invite people to come."

"good!"

At this point, the matter has been decided. Chu Zhou looked at the others again and said: "Don't think that these are just matters for the Taoist Master and the second junior brother. You are also involved."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and three more handwritten books fell on the table.

Yi Huai reacted the fastest. He raised his head and took out a book. After opening it, he murmured: "This is "Basic Weapon Refining", a magic weapon? Are we going to have an Weapon Refiner in Xuanzhen Temple?"

Fan Tiehu and Wei Jinkui each took a copy and flipped through it briefly. Wei Fangjie said, "My book is about formations. It's very magical!"

"My book is about drawing talismans!" Fan Tiehu frowned, slightly confused: "Is the Taoist talisman and seal script really powerful?"

Chu Zhou ignored him and said directly: "Alchemy Talisman Formation and the four major auxiliary skills of cultivating immortals. Although these are the foundation, they are also the beginning of everything.

Take a look for yourselves. If you are interested, you have to choose one. "

Yi Huai paused and asked, "Senior Brother, don't we all have to learn?"

"You choose freely, but you have to learn."

Chu Zhou nodded at the desk and said, "Remember, our Xuanzhen Temple is not a real martial arts sect, we are cultivators.

If you don't take down all the alchemy talismans, it would be outrageous to tell anyone. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were bitter, even Fan Zhong was like this. There was nothing they could do. They had also come into contact with "Basic Spirit Patternology" when they were studying law.

That really left a very deep impression on them. It might be too much to say it was miserable, but if they didn't have the talent to learn this, it would be really difficult for them.

Seeing their expressions, Chu Zhou understood, so he could only say: "Of course, everything is difficult at the beginning, so we don't want to rush, let's take our time!"

At this point, the tone was set. In fact, Chu Zhou was also mentally prepared.

Again, it is not an easy task to start something from scratch, even if there are basic textbooks.

But the problem is that the teaching materials are just teaching materials. Without a mature material supply system and a complete training institution, it is not that easy to just fumble around with the teaching materials.

But no matter how difficult it is, as long as you take a step forward, you will always gain something.

At this time, Wei Jinkui raised the most critical question: "Master, you said to take your time, but Wanxiangzhai probably won't give us much time. What are you going to do?"

This is the issue that everyone is concerned about. As soon as this statement came out, everyone's eyes gathered.

Now that Chu Zhou had made his decision, he was naturally unambiguous and said directly: "I will go to Wanxiangzhai in person."

"Go in person?"

Wei Jinkui was stunned when he heard this, and felt a little unbelievable, and said: "No, Temple Master, this is too dangerous, and you are going to negotiate with the Master of Wanxiang Palace?

Now that Wanxiangzhai is here, he cannot retreat easily, and negotiations cannot be useful! "

"I see!"

Chu Zhou said softly: "Although my Xuanzhen Guan has the upper hand, when it comes to strength, it is indeed inferior. This is an indisputable fact.

I've thought about it carefully, and there's only one thing I can't be afraid of, and that's high-end combat power. "

“On this trip, I’m not here to negotiate, but to inquire about boxing.

As long as I can subdue the master of Wanxiang Zhai with one punch and one kick, Wanxiang Zhai's strong strength will have no basis, and I will not dare to move. "

After hearing this, everyone felt that this method was feasible. As long as Chu Zhou could win and win cleanly, even if Wanxiangzhai was strong, they would have some scruples.

Yes, they can indeed sweep through the entire Tianquan County with their strong strength, and even destroy Xuanzhen Temple.

But that was equivalent to opening the shackles on Chu Zhou's body. If he lost his shackles and carried out unscrupulous assassinations, attacks, and massacres, even Wanxiangzhai would cry! ! !

This is another form of asymmetric warfare, nuclear deterrence.

Only the old Taoist Qingjing spoke: "So, Temple Master, you are fully confident in defeating the Master of Wanxiang Zhai?

I'm not doubting your strength, but as far as I know, the higher the realm, the greater the gap in strength.

It's hard to say that the master of Wanxiang Zhai is not as good as the black-faced centipede Yan Xiuyuan. If he is stronger than Yan Xiuyuan, something is wrong. "

Yi Huai was a little unhappy when he said this: "Old Taoist, do you think that my senior brother will lose when you say this?

You have been coming to Xuanzhen Temple for many years. How has my senior brother ever lost? "

There is no other way. Xu Cheng and Yi Huai have unlimited trust in Chu Zhou. Not to mention the martial arts master, they believe that Chu Zhou can pull down the grand master and play like a football.

Chu Zhou nodded, shook his head, and said: "Actually, I don't have the confidence to win, so I still need to hone my martial arts skills.

I guess it will be fine when I get to Anyue City.

By then, not to mention the master of Wanxiang Zhai, even if we add their three inner sect elders, I will be somewhat sure. "

Chu Zhou said this with confidence, and the pure old Taoist didn't say much, but Wei Jinkui added: "I'm afraid that Wanxiangzhai will find someone to help. You know, they have been operating in Bawang City for a long time, and they have connections with Ba Zong. These connections are not Missing."

"It would be great if they really are."

Chu Zhou nodded: "Come and go, looking for help always costs money, favors and time.

If the struggle in Tianquan County can evolve into Wanxiangzhai looking for masters from elsewhere to challenge me, what can basically be guaranteed is that before I am undefeated, Tianquan County will be safe and sound, and the name of Xuanzhen Guan, the first sect, will be The head will also sit firmly. "

Seeing that Wei Jinkui still had something to say, Chu Zhou waved his hand and said, "Okay, I've made up my mind, let's do it."

At this time, Fan Tiehu suddenly said: "Senior Brother, if you want to prepare for this trip, you should bring some manpower to protect you, right?"

"this……"

Chu Zhou thought for a while and said, "I still want it!"

Fan Tiehu recommended himself: "Then let me go. Last time I went to Anyue City, I didn't go. This time, let me follow you and learn more."

"I, I will go too. As a guard, you still need to be strong. Apart from senior brother, I am the strongest!"

This was Yi Huai's speech, and Wei Fangjie was not happy: "Third Senior Brother, you are talking as if I am far behind you. If you want to go, then I have to go too."

"You go, you just go. However, since we are all going, only the second senior brother will be left at home, okay?"

As Yi Huai said this, he put his arm around Xu Cheng's shoulders and said, "Second Senior Brother, are you going?"

Xu Cheng was a little moved, but still said: "I listen to senior brother."

With a 'swipe', all four people looked at Chu Zhou. Chu Zhou thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's get together. I can't let you stay at home every day. You still have to go out and see the world!"

With that said, Chu Zhou looked at the other three people and said: "While we are away these days, Uncle Wei, you will be in charge; Uncle Fan, you will be in charge; Taoist Priest Qingjing, please take care of the safety of the sect. "

"yes!"

"Then when do we set off?"

"Get ready tomorrow, the morning after tomorrow."

"good!"

…

In fact, the so-called preparations are just arrangements that should be made, preparations that should be made, decisions that should be made, and then the alert level within the sect is raised again.

It's night,

Chu Zhou did not practice, nor did he enter the Jingyin Hall. Instead, he washed and bathed. After cleansing his body, he sat cross-legged, lit another incense, and began to adjust his state.

The next morning, when the rooster crowed at dawn, Chu Zhou opened his eyes.

He didn't wash or even eat. He just wore a blue Taoist robe, his hair was loose, and he stepped on the ground with bare feet.

When he reached the door, he pushed it open and Xu Chengsi was already there.

There was no need to talk. Chu Zhou continued to walk out of the courtyard, walked through the corridor, passed through the palace, and then went down the steps step by step until he reached the mountain gate.

Here, there are already many pilgrims who get up in the morning to worship the gods, as well as vendors setting up stalls. They all stare blankly at the scene in front of them, somewhat at a loss.

Chu Zhou ignored them and slowly closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes, he fell into complete silence. The power in his body was dormant, his magic power was gathered, and his energy and spirit were restrained to the extreme. His whole body was like a piece of rotten wood.

But if you look closely, there is a sense of inconsistency, like the calm before the storm, or like a silent volcano.

It looks normal, but there is a torrent of power inside that is suppressed and accumulated, waiting for the moment to explode.

Of course, the convergence of power did not hinder Chu Zhou's keen perception. After closing his eyes,

After losing his vision, his hearing became more sensitive, supplemented by touch, taste and perception, and the external scenes seemed to appear in his mind in another form.

Then he took a step!

He just closed his eyes and walked forward step by step, ignoring all the noise, and headed towards Baisha City.

Around him, Xu Cheng, Yi Huai, Fan Tiehu and Wei Fangjie each took a corner and moved forward with Chu Zhou.

The auras of the four people were connected together, which did not affect Chu Zhou's perception and walking, but also blocked all directions, maintaining a high degree of vigilance.

Just like this, step by step, they walked out of the mountain gate, walked onto the official road, and after walking for several miles, they arrived at Baisha River.

But this time, Chu Zhou did not take a boat, but just stepped on the water, crushing the waves and spray, and walked forward as if walking on flat ground.

Xu Cheng and the other four did not have this ability, so they chose boats and directly purchased four boats, which they still guarded around them.

This move really shocked everyone along the way.

They couldn't understand what kind of strange move this was. Only the warriors who knew the inside story changed their expressions.

Because, according to ancient legends, martial arts geniuses like to walk like this on foot, challenging various sects along the way.

As long as you fight all the way without defeat, you will be able to accumulate invincible power, understand the true meaning of superhuman martial arts, and shake your fist to the sky.

As for Chu Zhou, there was no one in this three-acre area of ​​Tianquan County worthy of his action.

Only, the master of Wanxiang Zhai!

Therefore, during this trip, Chu Zhou, the master of Xuanzhen Temple, asked Wanxiangzhai of Wenquan!

This was a big deal, enough to cause countless warriors to rush to tell each other, and countless warriors rushed to Anyue City, looking forward to this battle.

In the crowd, an ordinary man looked at the scene with a gloomy face. He used to run a pancake stall.

But at this moment, he didn't care about his business. He turned around and rushed home. The customers who wanted to pay behind him couldn't stop him.

Half an hour later, a flying eagle was released. It had a small bamboo tube tied to its legs. It flapped its wings and flew up to the sky with a sharp roar.

The various sects in Tianquan County regarded Wanxiangzhai as a scourge. Wanxiangzhai would naturally not be so arrogant as to think that it was invincible.

Therefore, Wanxiangzhai had sent people to Tianquan County a long time ago.

And Xuanzhen Temple was estimated to be the "conspicuous bag" among the various sects in Tianquan County. Chu Zhou's strength was one aspect, and Xuanzhen Temple secretly taught martial arts.

Therefore, there was a hidden man buried in Baisha City, and a rare flying eagle was specially equipped to send messages.

But the hidden man didn't expect that the first use would be on this.

Two chapters in one, mainly because I was asked to go out for dinner at night and I almost failed to finish it!
