Chapter 285 The Bird of Negative Gold - Skyscraper Blade
"What the hell? The evil-hearted Colonel Lieutenant failed to deceive others and was deceived instead?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Qi Jingzhi, and then turned to Uncle Shui Shui, who looked ashamed. They all secretly exclaimed: "It is true that the strongest among the strongest, and every mountain is higher than the next!"

"This Qingji has a small nose and small eyes. He looks strangely handsome. I didn't expect that even when cut open, he would be black!"

At that moment, Qing Ji said in a weak voice: "In order to obtain the inheritance of the Rain Master who inspired Zhongming, Yong Guan took extremely ruthless actions. He repeatedly knocked on the bones, sucked out the marrow, searched for the soul, and completely turned this Shang Yang remnant into a fool. , except for the fact that the essence of the water yin bird still exists, the rest is just an empty frame..."

Qing Ji looked at the young captain with an unprecedented serious expression on his face: "If you have the same thoughts as Yong Guan, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

"That's what I was talking about..."

Qi Jingzhi smiled nonchalantly and suddenly said: "Can you please explain in detail, what is meant by 'fire takes the marrow of the red phoenix from the south, and water seeks the essence of the black turtle from the north sea'?"

Hearing this, Qingji thought seriously for a while, and then hesitantly said: "This is what I heard from the master. Apart from these two sentences, there seems to be something else... The blue dragon is curled up on the left, and the white tiger is fiercely occupying the right. , the red bird flies in front, the turtle circles behind..."

"Then there are some obscure words. They are obviously talking about the secrets of the five elements, the five internal organs and the five qi. However, when the master was discussing Taoism with the family members, he said, 'Heavenly officials, five beasts, five directions and five spirits'. When talking about mysticism with Taoist priests, it becomes like 'moving stars to change buckets, patching up the sky and bathing in the sun', and when practicing meditation with monks, it becomes like 'dragon bowl of rain of dharma, tiger bed of sad wind'."

"Every time I hear it, I feel dizzy and sleepy. When the master sees it, he will smile and say, leaving aside all the mysteries here, in fact, it can be summed up in only four words..."

The Kuze Shuibo suddenly flicked his sleeves, stood with his hands behind his hands like a master, looked into the distance, and said word by word: "Whatever is missing, make up for it!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone couldn't help but gasped: "This is so damn concise and concise!"

Qi Jingzhi immediately nodded: "It's true to say one sentence, but it's false to say thousands of books. Your master is indeed a peerless expert with wisdom and understanding."

His flattery was actually meant to be a test. However, both Qing Ji and Shou Ba, who was obviously aware of the situation, pretended to be deaf and dumb when they heard the words, and had no intention of introducing the expert.

Seeing this, the young captain did not force anything, and immediately changed the topic: "Qi Jingzhi, thanks to Lord Huntian Slugong, valued and taught him the ritual of sealing the town. He had already consecrated the Southern Fire God on the spiritual platform before, and he responded to the words "Fire". Taking the southern red phoenix marrow, Shui Bo and Shouchang Shi must have noticed it."

"Naturally, the next step is to ask Shui to ask for the Black Turtle Spirit of the North Sea, and to confer a title on a northern water god, so that water and fire can intersect, and yin and yang can harmonize. However, Qi Jingzhi has very little knowledge and really doesn't know how to bring Shang Yang's remnant soul to the spiritual platform. I would also like to ask for some advice from the two of you. Maze!"

Shouba laughed dumbly and pointed to the young man's right arm: "The knife on Hu Chan's waist is very special, like a condensed desire, but it is even more ethereal, and it is hardly a thing from the world."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young tiger, who had a close connection with Qi Jingzhi, jumped out. Not only did the tiger's eyes glow with five colors, but even the tips of its claws shone with a misty light.

He slapped his paw on the one-legged bronze bird pulling the cart, but it was not hindered in any way. Instead, it was completely submerged into the bird's body, and then he pulled out a faint, almost non-existent black light from inside.

The young tiger stuffed the ball of black light into his mouth, turned around and pounced on Qi Jingzhi's brow, then disappeared again.

One leap, one grab and one pounce, it was really extremely fast, just like flowing clouds and flowing water.

Qi Jingzhi let out a breath and winked at Wei Yingdian: "Why don't you get the bowls and chopsticks for Uncle Shui and Shouchang Shi?"

With his previous experience in the Gaozi altar, the former doctor of the Ministry of Rites immediately understood it. He took a pair of spare chopsticks, held them in his palms and rubbed them vigorously. In the blink of an eye, they were whittled into a pair of small wooden chopsticks, with a surface so smooth that there were no burrs. No.

He respectfully handed it to Qing Ji and sincerely asked for advice: "Shui Bo has a keen sense of spiritual awareness and profound knowledge. He especially knows very well about ancient sacred birds such as Red Phoenix and Shang Yang. I wonder if I can also control it for the lower official." With a glance, for example, what should I eat and what supplements should I take next?”

While speaking, Wei Yingdian was moving his heart and soul without any reservation, trying his best to drive the divine will to come out from his body.

Qing Ji grabbed the pair of small chopsticks, looked at Wei Yingdian carefully, and then turned to look at Qi Jingzhi: "My master once said that if the sun and the moon do not appear together, there will be no two male foxes, no two male dragons, and no group of ferocious beasts. Birds don’t match each other!”

Qi Jingzhi understood it as soon as he tasted it, and shook his head with a smile: "How can you be so domineering and intolerant of others? Although our Xianyu Mountain is not crowded now, it has always been about hundreds of cranes flying together and dancing in the sky. There are no birds of prey. There is a saying that birds are not paired.”

"What?"

Qing Ji had a look of surprise on his face and pointed at Wei Yingdian: "You mean, he is also a member of Xianyu Mountain? It doesn't look like it!"

The Ganze Shuibo stared at the former doctor of the Ministry of Rites for a long time, and then said in a very rude tone: "What kind of crane are you cultivating? Why do you look so nondescript!"

"I see that you have a murderous and sharp spirit, which coincides with the way of the Western Golden Crane. Even if you are extremely talented and can cultivate some kind of ancient exotic bird just by relying on the "Immortal Feather Sutra", you should be running towards the swans and swans. It’s a long way to go…well, have you ever heard of swans and swans?”

Wei Yingdian had not yet answered, but Geshu Dashi and Wei Bao had excited expressions, obviously remembering something.

Qi Jingzhi responded directly: "Among the five ancient phoenixes, the white one is the swan."

"The spilt is the white bird of the west among the five sacred birds... Well, its shape is like a swallow, and its movement is metal. It is located in the west, controlling the energy of Geng metal, and governs where the sun enters. When the spelt flies, it will fall. Frost."

Qing Ji glanced at the young man with some surprise, nodded and said: "These two sacred birds are very similar. They are both of the Western Geng metal. The only obvious difference is their appearance."

He stared at Wei Yingdian and muttered: "Compared to the sparrow, which prefers swallows, your heart is like a crane but not a crane, like a goose but not a goose. You are obviously more like a white phoenix and a swan."

"The swan is as big as a goose, so it is called a swan, but it is often classified as a crane. It is also called the white swan, and because it belongs to gold, it is also called the yellow swan and the yellow crane."

"Whether it's a swan, a white crane, or a yellow crane, the foundation of the white phoenix and the swan is clearly the Qi of Western Geng Metal. Geng Metal is the gold of pure Yang, strong and solemn, so it can control the west wind and attract autumn frost. In other words, the swan The foundation and essence of... lies in Gengjin and not in Fengshuang!"

Qingji paused, his eyes clearly showing disgust: "When you achieve your goals, you reverse the priorities and put the cart before the horse. Instead, you use wind and frost as the basis and Gengjin as the supplement. You don't even know what you are." Understand it, and you’re just eating blindly to make up for it!”

Wei Yingdian was regarded as a fool by this Ganze Shuibo, but he really couldn't reply. Who knew that he only had the "Immortal Feather Sutra" scroll of great fortune, but he happened to pick up a "strong wind coming from the west, frost blade destroys the enemy" "Where is the sword of Fengshen Shiyi?"
But the two of them hit it off immediately, and they immediately helped him become a white bird with strong bones and frosty feathers, and the heart and soul of a golden bird!

Now that things have come to this, where is the medicine for regret?

Qi Jingzhi was listening with a look of embarrassment on his face. After all, this matter had a lot to do with his casual teaching of the law.

Crane is a yang bird that swims in yin and supports itself due to the metal energy and fire essence.

In the "Dancing Crane Picture" passed down from generation to generation in Xianyu Mountain, the most common white-feathered frost crane has the largest number, followed by the Jiamu Qinghe that is not easy to make mistakes and has a long lifespan, and the fierce and domineering but extremely dangerous Dinghuo Red Crane, " The Yellow Crane, which is due to the golden energy, and the Xuan Crane, which is "swimming in Yin", are evenly matched, and they accompany the last one together.

According to Qingji, the path that Wei Yingdian should have taken originally should have been Yellow Crane or even White Phoenix and Honghu, but now it is not only nondescript, but also has the wrong foundation.

If Wei Yingdian's path is difficult because of this, and he even goes astray and ends in a dead end, how can he, Qi Jingzhi, feel at ease?

Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help himself, and took the initiative to ask Wei Yingdian: "What can I do for the current plan?"

In fact, the difference between Lu Gong and Qing Ji can be seen here. They also gave advice. Huntian Sizheng was not only funny in his words, but also did not criticize Wei Yingdian's practice book. He only pointed at Shi Yi's sword. After some evaluation.In comparison, Qing Ji was much more heartless, telling the truth was both unpleasant and hurtful, but he never thought that it would offend Wei, Qi, and even Xianyu Mountain.

Seeing that the situation was quite embarrassing and depressing, Shouba naturally had to step forward to make amends for his old friend.

He coughed slightly, shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not as bad as Qingji said. The monks have walked the path step by step, so why should we stick to the old ways and blindly follow the example of our predecessors?"

"There are still many crane-like birds in the world. There is no need to cling to Geng Jin and hang him on a tree like a yellow crane and a white swan."

Seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted, the God of Longevity Palace added: "The white stork is also a water bird. It has a long neck and a red beak. It has a white body with black wings and tail. It looks like a frost crane without a red top, and looks like a swan. Grow strong, build a nest of tall trees, and be as big as a wheel.”

"This bird is good at flying and fighting. It flies up to the sky and lands thousands of miles away. There is a poem that says, the cicadas are singing in the trees, and the storks are flying in the sky."

"So when it comes to fighting against the sky, the white stork is not inferior to the fairy feathers, and when it comes to riding the wind and frost, it is as good as the swan."

Hearing this, Wei Yingdian's face showed an excited look, but before he could say his thanks, Kunze Shuibo Qingji had already shouted unconvinced: "Of course I know about White Stork, but this guy is not a fairy. Yushan? You can't just control the wind and frost, but lose the way of Gengjin, right?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Qingji's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly became dejected: "I almost forgot that the white stork also has the ability to bear gold..."

Shouba laughed and said, "You didn't think of it this time. It's definitely not that Shou deliberately made you look bad."

He paused, then turned to explain to Wei Yingdian: "White stork, known as the negative golden bird in ancient times. Regarding the origin of this name..."

"There is a saying that the white stork flies with the sun on its back. Because the color of the sun is like gold, it is named as the stork carrying the sun."

"Another theory is that the ancient sage Zhou Hongzheng once rescued a wounded white stork. The white stork recovered from its injury and returned a few days later carrying a golden string to repay Zhou Hongzheng for saving his life. Later generations called the stork "Stork". The bird is a negative gold."

To be honest, it is quite far-fetched to connect these two legends of gold-bearing birds with the white stork's ability to control the Western Geng-Gold Qi. However, Wei Yingdian was stunned when he heard it, and Qi Jingzhi on the side was also surprised. shock.

Just because the so-called white stork flies away from the sun is very similar to Shi Yi, the god of the west wind, who "measures the length and breadth of the sun and the moon", and the white stork carries gold to repay the favor, the gold is almost the same as the gold brought by the strong wind.

It seems that Lu Gong’s joke on the altar that day was not just a joke...

"I dare to ask the history of longevity, is the ancient sage Zhou Hongzheng related to the Dapeng family?" Wei Yingdian's face was uncertain.

Shouba was startled, then shook his head: "The Zhou family and the Dapeng family both have the surname Ji, and they are both descendants of the Emperor Hong family. As for whether there is a closer relationship, Shou is not sure."

After hearing this, Wei Yingdian was silent for a long time, and then he said decisively: "The cicadas are singing in the trees, and the storks and swans are flying in the sky! From now on, Wei will practice this way of storks and swans flying in the sky!"

Qi surged around his body, and he stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the sword at his waist: "This sword will be called Ferris from now on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Skyscraper responded immediately. It broke free from Wei Yingdian's hand and flew out of the scabbard on its own, carrying the chilling air of wind and frost, and shot straight into the sky coldly.

Wei Yingdian smashed through the mountain wall to obtain this sword. It was not until today that he finally determined the name and finally fully awakened the spirit of the sword. It actually overlapped with the allusion of "Zhou Hongzheng rescued and the golden bird repaid his kindness".

When everyone looked up, they seemed to see a large bird that looked like a crane, with a white body and black wings, playing happily in the winter clouds.

While this big bird was riding the clouds and flying around, it kept opening and closing its long red-gold beak, making a sonorous sound like gold and iron striking each other. In an instant, white dew condensed in the clouds and floated down.

Feeling the coolness falling on his face, Shouba couldn't help but smile, stroking his palms and exclaiming: "The two feathers are facing the long wind, and they will pass thousands of miles away in a moment. High birds fly into the sky, and we play together in the clouds!"

Qingji poked his head out from under the hood of the car, looked up at the sky with all his strength, and couldn't close his mouth.

He just came back to his senses after hearing Shouba's praise, and hummed twice: "It's a pity that the white stork is not good at chirping. It only sings with its beaks. It is far worse than the crane that sings in Jiugao and whose voice is heard in the sky." Got it!"

Shouba laughed dumbly: "Is there anything perfect in this world?"

After a long time, the Skyscraper finally had enough fun, leaned down and rushed down, falling back into the scabbard without any movement.

At the same time, the winter clouds in the sky have all dispersed, the frost and flowers have melted, and there are no traces left when blown by the sky wind.

In the eyes of Qi Jingzhi, Geshu Dashi and Wei Bao, the majestic and majestic scene in the sky just now is similar to the jet lag when Jianrenshou first gained the spirit of a wooden sword.

There is no better occasion than this.

Shouba looked away from the sword on Wei Yingdian's waist, and suddenly laughed: "In ancient times, Gouchen Courtyard used to be in charge of the king's chariots. It had the prosperity of 'dragons filled the court, clouds and flags were flying'. If Da Sima rebuilt the dragons, clouds and chariots, The Governor's Mansion of the Second Banner Army... I wonder if you are interested in the Yun Banner Army?"

Wei Yingdian's eyes narrowed, and then he shook his head without hesitation: "Wei is only willing to follow Colonel Qi's command!"

When Shouba heard this, there was no look of disappointment on his face. He just nodded slightly to show his understanding, and then turned to Qi Jingzhi: "There is not much time left for you to retreat. Don't delay the request for seals and the ban on sending troops." Water is the two big things.”

Seeing the young captain nodding silently, Dean Shi of Gouchen turned around and strode away, seemingly not at all interested in staying and enjoying the delicious food.

"Riding a dragon and riding on thunder, carrying a cloud flag and carrying a snake. When you are long and restless, you will go up, and your heart is low and you are caring..."

"Haha, thousands of years of great and prosperous events pass by like a dream!"

There was a lingering sound, but there was no one left in Shouba.

Qi Jingzhi shook his head helplessly: "The old man is getting old, and he always misses the past and the present."

"It's delicious!" Qingji's voice suddenly rang out.

Qi Jingzhi turned around and saw that Uncle Shui Shui, who was also quite old, had inserted a large piece of dog meat with his chopsticks and was eating it deliciously.

Seeing the young captain looking towards him, Qingji grinned heartlessly and muttered: "It's amazing to be able to recite poetry? Is it amazing to care about the country and the people?"

He nodded towards the big black iron pot that was fragrant and steamy, and he actually recited a few lines of poetry: "The heart is full of food, and the wine is invigorating. It's a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, and people in Quzhou are cannibals!" "

After hearing this, everyone present looked at me and I looked at you, and they all put down their chopsticks: "How can you fucking eat this?"
