Qeng Ho Mage

Chapter 141 Messenger

"It's a pity that your teacher's wife did not succeed in forming the alchemy."

At this time, it had been two days since Qi Guangxiang rushed to the pass and formed the alchemy, and Yitian Peak no longer needed a guardian.

The disciples dispersed one after another and returned to their respective caves.

Qi Changzhen did not stay any longer.

Accompanied by Fang Dushu, she went to Jade Blood Peak, and on the way they chatted about Qi Guangxiang's alchemy.

"Master herself is very open."

In the past two days, Fang Dushu had been in frequent contact with Qi Guangxiang, and he could feel that Qi Guangxiang did not force his face to smile, and Qi Guangxiang never took the matter of his failure in forming the alchemy to heart.

Fang Dushu added: "Yesterday I attended a lecture in front of the honored master, and he once mentioned that the Zhenwen school can only produce a Jindan stage writer every four to fifty years.

Shizun is the latest scribe to be crowned in the sect, and it has only been about 20 years since he formed the alchemy. According to this practice, if the master wants to successfully form the alchemy, she still needs to survive for some more years. "

What he was talking about was a matter of probability.

According to the past probability of the Zhenwen School, it takes an average of 50 years to advance to a Jindan stage writer.

The lifespan of a scribe in the Jindan period is double that of a monk in the foundation period, and can reach 480 years old.

This also means that every time a Jindan period writer is born in the Zhenwen School, a Jindan period senior will also be reborn at the same time.

Since the founding of the Dazhen Wen School, the number of Jindan period writers in the school has remained at around ten all year round, and it has not been able to increase in a large amount, which is also the reason.

In fact, not only the Zhenwen sect, but also the situation of the Jindan period writers of other sects in Li Kingdom are similar.

However, probability is a probability. The so-called birth of a literati in 50 years is based on statistics from the history of the Zhenwen School, and does not include wars.

In reality, Qi Guangxiang failed to form the alchemy this time, and in a few years she will make a comeback, and she may succeed in one fell swoop.

Fang Dushu mentioned this topic only as an interesting thing.

But Qi Changzhen listened to his analysis, but was not very interested: "Among the eight scribes in our school, Patriarch Xuanjin has the longest lifespan. She is over four hundred years old, not far from Zuohua."

Qi Changzhen was cared for by Master Xuan Jin, and grew up under Master Xuan Jin.

In comparison, Qi Changzhen's affection for Master Xuan Jin is actually deeper than that of her parents.

Qi Changzhen's parents were both foundation-building monks. When she was over two hundred years old, her parents knew that there was no hope of forming an alchemy, so they gave birth to her as an only daughter. After enjoying family happiness for several years, her parents passed away one after another and entrusted her to the Master Xuan Jinwen.

There are so many elders in her clan, and only Master Xuan Jin treats her close relatives, so she is really reluctant to part with her.

But sooner or later, the end of sitting will come, and she can't reverse it. Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling sad in her heart.

Fang Dushu couldn't understand her feelings, so he asked casually: "Is there any possibility that Master Xuan Jin will conceive a baby?"

She shook her head: "It's too difficult to conceive a baby. Patriarch Xuanjin had given up the hope of conceiving a baby before Jiazi. During the hundreds of years since our town's literary school was founded, Jin Danqi's literary masters have sat down one after another, and really conceived a baby." The only one who succeeds is the patriarch who knows the weak."

"When did Patriarch Daoming conceive a baby?"

"He became a baby first, and then he created the Zhenwen School."

"Where did Master Dao Ming practice before?"

"The former name of the Zhenwen School was called the Baiwen School. He advanced in the Baiwen School. After giving birth, his fellow monks sat down one after another. He became a lonely old birthday boy and began to take over the power of the Baiwen School. He felt that' The word "worship" is suspected of begging for beggars, and it runs counter to the behavior of monks fighting for fate, so "worship" was changed to "zhenwen", and the word "town" can reflect the determination and will of monks."

After Qi Changzhen finished explaining this secret, he asked Fang Dushu, "Ashu, do you think it's a good idea to change this name?"

Fang Dushu expressed his opinion: "The name is just a floating cloud. There is no difference between good and bad. Seeking Tao is not seeking fame. If you pay too much attention to these trivial details, I think it will run counter to the monk's original intention of longevity."

"Hey? You are questioning the patriarch, Ashu, are you not afraid that I will tell the patriarch?"

"So what if I tell you, the Patriarch can still punish me for facing the wall because of one sentence?"

"Maybe I will punish you."

"Maybe you'll keep it a secret for me."

"Well, you guessed right."

……

Fang Dushu sent Qi Changzhen all the way back to the cave of Jade Blood Peak.

He will come here often in the future.

The two lived in Yitian Peak for more than half a year, exchanging oracle bones for practice. During the period, each deduced a set of exercises suitable for their own cultivation through the oracle bone inscriptions.

When they left Yitian Peak, the two had already exchanged the oracle bones.

The Oracle Bone Scripture cannot be practiced in a year or a half. It will take four or five years of hard work to complete. In the future, both of them will practice through deduction.

After leaving Jade Blood Peak, Fang Dushu did not return home immediately.

He took a detour to the Holy Spirit Peak to visit Senior Sister Qin Hongyao.

He had an agreement with Qin Hongyao to use insect nests to breed ice and fire silkworms.

Before raising the worms, Qin Hongyao needs to study a magic power of pull back. Last month, Qin Hongyao has completed the practice of the pull back technique, and has made all preparations for the worm breeding.

When she informed Fang Dushu of the news, it happened to be the critical preparation period for Qi Guangxiang to form a pill. All Yitianmai disciples were not allowed to go out, so Fang Dushu asked her to wait for a while.

Now that Qi Guangxiang's alchemy has come to fruition, Fang Dushu has time to deal with it.

For the next few days, Fang Dushu stayed in Bitong Mountain where Qin Hongyao lived.

He was assisting Qin Hongyao to let the Ice and Fire Silkworms settle in the nest of the Holy Spirit.

The breeding process is very long. After entrusting the Binghuo silkworms to Qin Hongyao this time, Fang Dushu will be separated from the silkworms in the next few years until they lay eggs and hatch a silkworm colony.

"Junior Brother Fang, the double silkworms have successfully settled in the worm's nest, and I will guard them exclusively for the imperial sacrifice." Qin Hongyao reminded: "You can come over to watch the progress at any time, but the incubation period is relatively long. According to my estimation, it will take ten years." It takes eight years for silkworms to be born."

"Then please trouble Senior Sister Qin." Fang Dushu suddenly thought of something: "When the silkworms start laying eggs, do I need to use blood essence to feed them?"

"How did you tame the silkworms?" Qin Hongyao asked.

"Fire silkworms are fed from silkworm eggs, and I have fed them blood for half a year." Fang Dushu said, "Ice silkworms were caught halfway. Senior sister Qin still remembers that I first entered the mountain gate more than ten years ago and once looked for you. Borrowing a spiritual incense is to suppress ice silkworms."

"As long as one of them is fed with blood essence, the heirs they give birth will be close to your aura." Qin Hongyao thinks there is no problem: "Of course, if you are worried, I will notify you after they lay eggs. come over."

Fang Dushu wrote down this incident.

He had already stayed in Bitong Mountain for several days, and now that the two silkworms had been settled properly, he bid farewell to Qin Hongyao and returned to Gumu Peak.

Later that day, Qi Jianting led Xiang Xinxiu and Gu Zunchan to come to discuss a very important sect task
"Second Junior Brother, it's almost the end of the year, and we have to go to the mortal world to collect tribute." Qi Jianting said: "In the past, I served as the envoy to collect tribute. Serve as an envoy."

After speaking, he pointed to Xinxiu and Gu Zunchan: "Collecting tribute is the primary duty of our true disciples. When you build a foundation in the future, you will also be envoys."

Fang Dushu counted the days in his mind. When he and Qingqing left Shituo Gorge, it was March in the warm spring. They stayed in the green miasma forest for more than a month, and returned to Zhenwen School for another seven or eight months. In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the year.

It just so happened that Fang Dushu was going to visit Huang Shigu in Wuyuan City, and Qingyanlin was also going there, so it was a perfect fit to take over the envoy's errand.
