Kunlun one millet

Chapter 19

In the middle of the night, Zhao Shu squatted in the corner of the courtyard, dipped a Qingxuan brush in cinnabar, and wrote twelve door-closing talismans all over the courtyard wall. to an entire courtyard wall.

Zhao Mi was in high spirits here, but Xin Shunying behind him was rather bored, thinking that she had actually stayed here with him for two or three hours.

"Coach Shi, what exactly is Zhao Mi doing?" Xin Shunying covered her mouth and yawned.

Although Shi Huoguang's legal position and rank has always been a talisman official, he has another teaching position in the Huaiying Hall, and he is in charge of the affairs of the Baiqi Academy.

It's just that this coach Shi doesn't have the style of a senior teacher, and his performance in teaching and teaching is not satisfactory. The position of coaching is really not worthy of the name.Moreover, Shi Huoguang was obsessed with dharma objects and utensils, and he couldn't deal with people. The younger generation of Guansheng students privately called him "Shi Huozi", and often ridiculed him.

"Ah? This..." Shi Huoguang was older than Xin Shunying's father, but he turned his head away at this moment, trying to avoid Xin Shunying's gaze, and said inarticulately: "Zhao Shu said that there is something in the base of the courtyard wall." That, that enchantment, uh...hasn’t been activated yet, he, he plans to try it.”

"It's just a little remnant of the Tianxia Dynasty. Nowadays, where is there no such thing in Kunlun Continent?" Xin Shunying said.

Shi Huoguang was obedient and didn't refute, Xin Shunying was feeling bored, Zhao Shu finished writing the talisman, she stood up and asked, "What time is it now?"

Xin Shunying held up the Chonghui armillary sphere: "It will be a while before Zishizheng arrives."

"Fortunately, it was in time." Zhao Mi stretched.

Xin Shunying couldn't help asking: "Junior Brother Zhao, what is the matter that you brought me here?"

"Ah? I said it before." Zhao Mi checked the oil lamps on the ground nearby: "I tried all kinds of methods, but I couldn't activate the enchantment of this compound. I thought that Senior Xin's armillary sphere could attract star energy, so I decided to Set up a formation, and use the force of heaven and earth to forcibly activate the enchantment."

Xin Shunying looked at the wall full of talismans: "Seal the door and cover the house? I remember that it was just a magic technique used to isolate the internal and external sounds. What kind of formation is this?"

Zhao Mi explained excitedly: "The so-called sealing of doors and houses originally originated from the method of sealing mountains and summoning clouds. In ancient times, most of the cultivators lived in mountains and forests. In order to protect the cave and isolate the intrusion of ghosts and spirits, it is necessary to seal the town with great magic power. Mountains, and summon clouds and mist to form a maze.

However, Fengshan Zhaoyun can be used both internally and externally. Externally, it is naturally to protect the cave, and internally, it can restrain evil spirits.It also has a name that must have been heard by Sister Xin, it is called 'Liantian Iron Barrier'. "

Xin Shunying was slightly startled when he heard the words: "Could it be that in the battle of killing the dragon in the emperor's capital, in order to trap the evil dragon of Xuanming, there was an iron barrier set up by the Xiong Kingdom?"

"Exactly!" Zhao Mi showed a fascinated expression: "It is rumored that in the iron barrier, the sky and the earth are covered, the river is blocked, the sun and the moon are dark, and the stars lose their degree. Driving down the Nielong tried his best, but still couldn't break through the sky-high iron barrier, and was finally shot and killed by the Tianxia artifact Tong Gong Suzhen. Without the help of the Nielong, Hongxueke, the sword fairy of the East China Sea, beheaded the head of the Xuanming King. "

Xin Shunying was a little helpless: "This seems to be going too far."

Zhao Mi was very excited: "Then it is said that closing the door and hiding the house is not a very clever technique. It is simplified many times from the method of sealing mountains and calling clouds. It is like translating the profound and mysterious objects of heaven and earth into symbols. Four or five translations are required.

But no matter what, the main body of the technique of sealing the door and concealing the house is clear, just like the method of sealing the mountain and summoning the clouds, it has the effect of attracting subtle energy by itself and maintaining the restriction.As long as a slight modification is made, multiple spells are connected into one piece to form a formation, and this method is used to connect the enchantment with the effect similar to sealing a town. "

"Brother Zhao, you can clearly set up a restraining formation with the existing techniques, why do you need to delve into this long-broken barrier?" Xin Shunying asked: "You must know that life has a limit but knowledge has no limit, and the knowledge of techniques is vast. Boundless, it is better to specialize in one discipline than to be complex.”

Zhao Mi didn't know how to refute at once, he just simply felt that concentrating on studying spells would enrich his heart, anyway, he would not be delayed in his daily practice.

"What does she know about boundless boundaries?" Lingxiao secretly reminded Zhao Mi: "The barrier here is not broken, but it has been arranged for a long time and has not been activated."

Zhao Mi had no choice but to explain to Xin Shunying: "A barrier is not the same thing as a restraining formation. Although the effects are similar, the internal key points are completely different. The foundation wall of this house belongs to a shrine in the Tianxia Dynasty. I guess this enchantment was set up by the god who descended here back then. If I can reopen the enchantment, maybe I can try to hook up with the departed god."

Xin Shunying originally wanted to persuade Zhao Mi not to waste time here so that she could go back to rest, but unexpectedly it aroused Zhao Mi's enthusiasm.

"Okay, the time has come." Xin Shunying suppressed her impatience, and held up the armillary sphere with dim light flowing, pulling the energy of the stars in the sky, and leading it to the talisman seal on the wall.

The star energy melted into the talisman seal, and a starburst rose, hovering above the courtyard wall, and the prohibition formation on the wall began to hook the deep barrier.

Zhao Mi activated the Yingxuan Zhaojing technique. In his eyes, there was an aura in the enchantment that was absorbed into the formation like a trickle.An oil lamp ritual has already been set up on the ground, and there is also a bowl of clear water enlightened by the spell, which contains the true energy blown by Zhao Mi.

Following Zhao Mi's spell casting, the oil lamp on the ground shone brightly, turning into a golden bridge, reaching straight to the wall formation, slowly drawing out the spirit of the enchantment, and putting it into the bowl.

I saw the clear water in the bowl surging up for a while, and the water gathered into an incomplete human figure - thick limbs, a stocky torso, the head and the torso were connected together, and there was no face or five sense organs, just like a clay doll made by a child. coarse.

"Huh? There's no reason." Zhao Mi scratched his head, "Even if it's a witty aura, it's supposed to be able to completely show the true form of the god. Otherwise, how can the spirit be attached to the altar statue?"

"Are you ready?" Xin Shunying was not in the mood to continue playing with Zhao Mi, and said bluntly, "Zhao Xuedi, I'm going to rest first."

"Oh, sister Xin, go slowly." Zhao Mi didn't hold back, and asked Shi Huoguang to come over and study together.

Xin Shunying turned and left, walked through the corridor, and saw Luo Xixian approaching: "Sister Xin hasn't rested yet?"

"I was dragged by that Great Master Zhao to work as a coolie." Xin Shunying tried her best to maintain a ladylike demeanor on her face, but her mouth was merciless: "It's a pity that I can't serve this Great Master Zhao, so I still invite him Find another Gao Ming."

"Senior Xin, calm down." Luo Xixian said with a smile, "Zhao Mi has such a temperament. When encountering magic, he concentrates on it and doesn't care about others."

"Young Master Luo." Xin Shunying suddenly thought a little bit: "I heard that you, together with the county government, sold expensive spices to the wealthy gentry in Yanze City?"

Luo Xixian was proud when he heard the words: "That's right. This is not only to properly dispose of a batch of dragon's blood fat, but also to benefit the local county government."

Xin Shunying asked: "I saw Junior Zhao making spices these days. Who came up with this idea?"

"Of course it's Zhao Mi, who else could it be?" Luo Xixian said bluntly.

Xin Shunying's eyes were deep: "Mr. Luo, I have to ask a few more questions. This time, who is leading the Huaiying Pavilion in Xingluo County? Who is giving orders?"

"Of course it's me." Luo Xixian frowned slightly.

"If that's the case, why is it that Zhao Mi is almost always making suggestions and arranging affairs when we go north?" Xin Shunying asked.

Luo Xixian said: "Isn't Zhang Shouzuo's intention to have Zhao Mi as my deputy? In terms of wisdom and strategy, I am indeed inferior to Zhao Mi."

"A counselor cannot make decisions for the lord, otherwise the power will be emptied." Xin Shunying's smile made people chill: "Forgive me, although Zhao Mi did not make decisions for you, Mr. Luo, but he did it quietly by making suggestions. Guiding Mr. Luo carefully."

"What do you mean by that?" Luo Xixian showed sullen expression, "Are you trying to drive a wedge between me and Zhao Mi?"

Xin Shunying narrowed her phoenix eyes: "If Mr. Luo thinks this way, it may be difficult for him to gain a foothold in Xingluo County in the future."

Luo Xixian gritted his teeth, Xin Shunying smiled and said, "If you are just a classmate and friend, it is not wrong for Zhao Mi to advise you. But Mr. Luo wants to enter the official career from now on, and even use Xingluo County as a stepping stone in the future to move towards Dongsheng is in court, so we can’t leave everything to others.”

"I don't think Zhao Mi will harm me." Luo Xixian said in a deep voice.

Xin Shunying said with a smile: "Of course Zhao Mi won't harm you, but which one of you do you think the rich gentry in Yanze City, even the county magistrate, prefer?"

Luo Xixian snorted coldly: "If I hadn't negotiated with the county government, those dragon's blood fat spices would not be sold."

"If it wasn't for Zhao Mi, would Mr. Luo have thought of such a proper strategy?" Xin Shunying asked.

The corners of Luo Xixian's eyes tightened, and he inhaled slowly. Xin Shunying said, "Look, this is where Zhao Mi's scheming lies. With your trust, he has done things properly and beautifully, and no one else can criticize him. In fact, I also think that Zhao Mi is right. You have no malicious intentions, but there are some things that cannot be judged only by malice and good intentions. Power cannot be given to others, and the matter is not clear now. If in the future, Mr. Luo, all the people in your government will obey Zhao Mi's orders, everyone will still be headed by you Is it?"

Luo Xixian had a faint sword energy all over her body, and Xin Shunying's drooping hair flicked lightly. She stepped back half a step: "Mr. Grand, I am afraid that it will be a situation of immortality."

"I care about myself, I don't need you to teach me." Luo Xixian said.

"It should be like this." Xin Shunying showed an expression of appreciation, and said with a sigh of relief: "Then I will retreat first."

Xin Shunying walked away lightly, leaving Luo Xixian standing alone in the corridor with a gloomy expression.

……

"You mean, this is the true form of this god?" Shi Huoguang stared at the rough human form formed by the clear water in the bowl.

Zhao Mi nodded, and pointed to the imaginary strokes with the Qingxuan pen: "Look, does this aura look a bit like a mountain? I suspect that this god is most likely a mountain god!"

Zhao Shu and Shi Huoguang squatted in the corner and studied for a long time, and then Lingxiao secretly reminded that this was the true form of a mountain god.

Shi Huoguang said nothing in front of Zhao Mi: "I've heard that some famous mountains and gods and hills in Kunlun Continent gather clean energy along the terrain and form a blessed place, which can breed true spirits over time. You can become a mountain god because of the power of incense."

"That's what I said, but the true spirit formed by this kind of pure energy often has no time to perceive human affairs, and it will attract the spirits and monsters in the mountains to devour and refine them, and thus become a giant monster occupying a mountain." Zhao Mi said. : "Instead, it is rumored that an immortal sent down a talisman edict, with the true spirit of the mountain as the pivot, and the condensed clouds and gas will be transformed into a palace, and the true spirit of the mountain will also become the master of the palace, more than a prince."

Lingxiao told Zhao Mi about this, she said that the realm of this kind of palace is between the cave and the blessed place, located on the mountain, in the midst of the mysterious, known as the virtual palace.In the virtual palace, there are the essence of the sun and the moon, and the clear qi will also form the shapes of various officials and officials, who are placed in the palace, waiting to be called and appointed.

Shi Huoguang nodded and said: "This kind is the land of the famous mountain god. It is said that some people who fail to cultivate immortals will become officials under the seat of the mountain god after they are dissolved, in order to accumulate merit and transfer."

"As for this, I think it's a bit special." Zhao Mi pointed to the true form of the mountain god in the bowl: "It should have accepted the ceremony of the Tianxia Dynasty, but I don't know why it hasn't solidified its shape for a long time."

"Mountains, rivers and lands are only indeterminate in shape, maybe after the shrine was destroyed, the incense lost its credibility, and the mountain god's true form and appearance could not be maintained." Shi Huoguang shook his head and said: "If so, this mountain god may not even have full wisdom. It’s hard to say whether he can respond to the call.”

"The talisman is recorded. It captures the true form of the spirits of the heaven and earth, and reveals the subjects of ghosts and gods in the three realms." Zhao Mi took out a palm-sized wooden tablet: "Regardless of whether or not you can summon him, you should first record the true form of the mountain god. Wear it with you when exhaling and refining qi, and infect it with your own true qi, it is estimated that you will feel it."

Zhao Mi picked up the Qingxuan pen and carefully drew on the wooden sign. A pair of real-shaped talismans that resembled the twists and turns of the mountains gradually took shape. When he was about to try to store his thoughts and senses, Luo Xixian's voice came from behind:
"Are you done?"

Zhao Mi and Shi Huoguang turned their heads and saw Luo Xixian showing displeasure: "This is not the Huaiying Pavilion. You are playing with spells in the middle of the night, and your energy is turbulent. Do you want others to calm down and cultivate?"

Zhao Mi and Zhao Mi bowed their heads in silence, Luo Xixian said to Shi Huoguang, "Coach Shi, with your status and age, don't fool around with Zhao Mi."

"Yes, yes..." Shi Huoguang's chin was almost pressed to his chest, and he didn't dare to refute.

As soon as Zhao Mi was about to open his mouth, Luo Xixian stared at him: "And you! Since you are my deputy, you should be more cautious and low-key. How will the people of Yanze City treat me in the future if I mess around in the middle of the night? Residential houses, you are not in charge, I am in charge!"

"Understood." Zhao Mi stopped talking nonsense, and quickly waved the Qingxuan brush to cancel the formation on the wall.

Luo Xixian looked at the wall full of talismans and frowned: "We are only temporarily borrowing someone else's house, but you drew a wall of ghostly symbols, and the owner saw it and thought you were trying to trick Nightmare Town. Clean the walls quickly!"
