I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 145: The Test from Xie Lingyun

However, Xie Lingyun did not notice the strange expression on Zhang Chen's face at this time, but explained the True Dragon Frame to Zhang Chen. Xie Lingyun's explanation was very detailed, even more detailed than that of Xiao Douding.

"Do you understand?" Xie Lingyun said to Zhang Chen after finishing the rehearsal.

Zhang Chen is not a fool. It is equivalent to Xie Lingyun breaking it into pieces and feeding it to him. If he still doesn't understand, he would be a fool.

Then Zhang Chen began to practice, and Xie Lingyun reached out to correct Zhang Chen's movements.

As Xie Lingyun corrected Zhang Chen's movements, her slender fingers traced across Zhang Chen's acupuncture points. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Just an ordinary person? There is no mysterious aura about him at all."

However, despite his disappointment, he still tried his best to instruct Zhang Chen on the True Dragon Frame:
"In fact, the so-called bright power or dark power are all skills. It has nothing to do with how long you have practiced martial arts. Some people can master the skills of releasing power in a few months, while some people practice for a lifetime and still cannot find the way to release power."

Zhang Chen was thoughtful after hearing Xie Lingyun's words. However, as a cultivator, he had to hide himself by hanging out with a group of warriors all day long and practicing martial arts all day long. It was really hard for him.

But at this moment, Zhang Chen had another thought: How could the noble lady in front of him be a member of Huang Tiandao's True Dragon? Could it be that the noble lady in front of him was also a member of Huang Tiandao?

But it doesn't seem like it! If the noble lady in front of him was a member of Huang Tiandao, would Huang Liguan still need to stop the daily morning class?

Zhang Chen practiced the True Dragon Frame with all his heart and soul under the supervision of the noble lady. Xie Daoyun watched Zhang Chen's movements become more and more standard, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, if you want to comprehend Ming Jin and integrate the strength of the whole body into one, the key is to stretch the fascia between the limbs, feel the direction of the tendons in the human body, stretch the tendons in the human body, and train the tendons to be strong. Then you can naturally master all the strength."

"My lady, do you also know martial arts? Have you practiced the True Dragon Stance?" Zhang Chen asked when he saw that Xie Daoyun was approachable.

"Haha, although I am not from Huang Tiandao, I have also comprehended Huang Tiandao's martial arts. Didn't Huang Tiandao relax the control of martial arts a few years ago? For me, it is not difficult to see Huang Tiandao's martial arts." At this point, Xie Lingyun said: "I heard a few years ago that Huang Tiandao's True Dragon Frame is amazing. If it can be combined with the flesh and blood of a dragon, it will have incredible effects and can be used to refine a method called Qi and blood. So I borrowed the True Dragon Frame to study it, and even killed countless snakes, but unfortunately it was not verified."

“It is said that in ancient times, when martial arts flourished, some people used martial arts to enter the Tao. By taking the blood of mysterious beasts, they could refine their qi and blood. That qi and blood had incredible powers. It’s a pity that people today have never seen it.” Xie Lingyun said.

Qi and blood?

This is another new word for Zhang Chen.

Mysteries are extremely rare in this world, let alone beasts with mysterious powers. The only beast he has seen that involves mystery is probably the dragon transformed by the ancestor of the Pingbian Palace.

"Hey, the dragon transformed by the ancestor of the Pingbian Palace..." Zhang Chen suddenly had an idea. If he could obtain the flesh and blood of a dragon, would he be able to refine his qi and blood?

But unfortunately, even if he had the flesh and blood of a dragon, it would be useless because he did not have the mantra to temper his qi and blood.

"I wonder what's so mysterious about this qi and blood?" Zhang Chen asked curiously.

“I don’t know.” Xie Lingyun said straightforwardly: “There are only a few mentions of it in ancient books. There are no strange beasts in this world, so no one has ever succeeded in cultivating it. But now a dragon has appeared in the Yellow River, and there may be hope in the future…”

Having said this, Xie Lingyun quickly stopped talking, as if he realized that he had said something wrong and leaked the information, and immediately kept silent.

Zhang Chen did not ask any further questions upon seeing this, but instead practiced martial arts diligently and stretched his muscles.

Xie Lingyun instructed Zhang Chen. The two practiced for half an hour. Zhang Chen was sweating profusely and exhausted. He stopped and looked at Xie Lingyun: "Thank you for your guidance, my lady. Please come in and tell me."

Xie Lingyun did not comment upon hearing this. She nodded and followed Zhang Chen into the house. Then Zhang Chen quickly wiped the stool again. Even though there was no dust on the stool itself, he just wanted to show that attitude.

People living in this world must climb up and make friends with useful people and forces. Anyone who thinks he can conquer the world alone is a fool.

Especially before you grow up, making friends with more useful people, making more friends and fewer enemies is the key to sustainable development.

Xie Lingyun was also a wonderful person. Looking at Zhang Chen's actions, he was very satisfied with the young Taoist priest in front of him.

But she looked Zhang Chen up and down, but she didn't notice anything mysterious about him. It had nothing to do with mystery. Looking at Zhang Chen who was busy making tea, Xie Lingyun thought to herself: "Could it be that the one who emitted golden light last night was not him? Was it that little girl?"

She remembered Cheng Yu, a very cute little girl, but after meeting her several times, she didn't think there was anything special about her.

But Xie Lingyun was not in a hurry. She still had plenty of time to investigate and slowly win over people's hearts. Rather than going straight to the point of exchanging interests, she preferred to make friends slowly.

While they were talking, Zhang Chen poured tea for Xie Lingyun. Although this tea was the broken tea that Xie Lingyun usually disdained to drink, she still took a sip out of courtesy.

At this moment, Cheng Yu's voice came from outside the door: "Zhang Chen, come and drink the medicine, I have made a new soup for you."

The little girl walked into the house happily, holding the bowl of medicine, but the smile on her face soon disappeared, because the female devil was sitting in the house, sitting on her stool, looking at her with a smile on her face.

The little boy was suddenly at a loss. He didn't know where to put his hands holding the medicine bowl, and he stood at the threshold, unable to move forward or backward.

"Greetings, my dear sir." The little kid finally walked in with his head hung low, handed the medicine to Zhang Chen, and bowed respectfully to Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun looked at the little kid and saw that he was ordinary and cute, but he didn't seem to have any mystery. He couldn't help but wonder:
"Or did I make a mistake last night? It's not these two people who have the mysterious power, but the mystery is hidden in this yard?"

Xie Lingyun thought to himself, and then said to the little kid, "Don't be so polite, good boy, come here and let me see."

Cheng Yu looked at Xie Lingyun with his arms open. The bright red robe was like a giant beast that could swallow him up at any time. He could only force a smile and walked stiffly to Xie Lingyun. Xie Lingyun held him in his arms and played with him.

Xie Lingyun's fingers passed over the acupuncture points on the little girl's body, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed: "She is just an ordinary person, without any mysterious energy." "These two are ordinary people, without any trace of mystery at all. With the means of my Heavenly Demon Avenue, even if the other party is a twelfth-level mystery, with such a close detection, the other party can't hide from my perception. It seems that these two are indeed ordinary people. Could it be that the mystery is an object in the yard? That's a difficult problem." Xie Lingyun muttered in his heart. Once the mystery is hidden, it is full of unpredictability and it is extremely difficult to find.

The mystery itself may be hidden in the void, in an object, or just a grain of sand under your feet.

"This is so difficult!" Xie Lingyun secretly groaned in his heart.

"You are still drinking medicine? Are you ill?" Xie Lingyun looked at the medicine in Zhang Chen's hand with curiosity, because she had just examined Zhang Chen, and this boy was in good health, so how could he get sick?

At this moment, the little kid in Xie Lingyun's arms stiffened, his eyes rolled around, and he cried out in his heart: Not good!

I said, 'That soup can cleanse the tendons and meridians, and help improve and comprehend martial arts.' This kind of nonsense can fool a newbie like Zhang Chen who doesn't understand the principles of martial arts, but if I say it to a young lady from a wealthy family like Guinu, I will definitely be exposed immediately, and then I will definitely be beaten to a pulp by that disrespectful junior brother.

The most important thing is that a month has passed and it is the critical period for my junior brother to be cured, and nothing can go wrong.

So Xiao Douding took over the conversation and answered the noble lady's question for Zhang Chen: "He has a weak body, so he should drink more soup and medicine to replenish his body, so as not to exhaust his body from practicing martial arts."

As he spoke, the little kid winked at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen saw Xiao Douding's actions and thought that Xiao Douding was trying to prevent his family's secret recipe from being leaked, so he nodded and said, "Yes, my body is too weak, and I have been malnourished since I was a child. If I practice martial arts, I need to drink some soup medicine to replenish my body."

There is nothing wrong with this! But who is Xie Lingyun? She is a cultivator at the level of exorcism. Her spirit has interfered with matter. She has a detailed grasp of everything. She immediately noticed the flaws in the expressions of the two, but she did not say much. Instead, she continued to chat with the two: "I see. If this is the case, you need to drink more soup and medicine to replenish your body and make up for the deficiency as soon as possible."

Then Xie Lingyun did not leave, but chatted with the two of them directly. As noon was approaching and the lunch bell rang, Xie Lingyun was still talking to the two of them. The little kid in Xie Lingyun's arms became a little anxious and winked at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen glanced at Xiao Douding, then listened to the bell in his ears, and immediately understood what Xiao Douding meant. Xiao Douding was saying that it was almost too late for lunch. After all, the two of them had to run to grab lunch.

However, Zhang Chen felt extremely helpless as he looked at the noble lady who kept talking and had no intention of leaving.

This was a noble lady that the whole temple worshipped. Could he abandon her and run to the cafeteria to grab food? If the news got out, he would be beaten to death by the law enforcement elders.

The two stood in the room anxiously, but they had to deal with Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun was holding the little kid with a smile on her face. She seemed to be talking nonsense, but her eyes were scanning the entire courtyard, thinking about the mystery. Until a guard came over and bowed respectfully to Xie Lingyun: "Miss, it's time for lunch", then Xie Lingyun stood up and said goodbye and left.

Cheng Yu watched the Dahongpao go away like a ball of fire, and rubbed her face hard. She felt that her face was broken.

"Zhang Chen, what do these nobles eat for three meals a day?" Little Douding asked curiously, and before Zhang Chen could answer, he gave the answer: "It must be big bones, and there are all kinds of big bones, such as braised, steamed, spicy..."

The little kid became more and more greedy as he talked, and finally his saliva started to flow out.

Zhang Chen glanced at the little kid and said unhappily, "Hurry up and go to the cafeteria to grab some food. I'm afraid if you don't go and grab some food, you won't even have any steamed buns to eat."

Zhang Chen carried Xiao Douding on his back, and Xiao Douding carried the lunch bucket, and then the two of them ran all the way to the cafeteria, but unfortunately they were late in the end.

The porridge was gone and each person could only get one steamed bun.

At this time, the little kid was holding a steamed bun in his mouth, his pink face was puffed up, and he bit off a piece of the bun fiercely: "It's all that lady's fault. It's time for dinner but she still refuses to leave. We can only eat steamed buns. We have two meals a day, and they are all steamed buns and porridge. Who can stand it?"

Zhang Chen handed the steamed bun to the little kid and said, "You eat it. I'm not hungry!"

He really wasn't hungry, after all, he had secretly eaten some snacks last night.

The little kid was very tempted when he saw the steamed bun in Zhang Chen's hand, but he turned his head away in the end: "Forget it, one steamed bun is enough for me. I'm still young and don't eat much. You're growing up now, you can't be hungry, otherwise you won't grow up in the future... woo... woo... woo."

Zhang Chen looked at the little kid and stuffed the bun directly into his mouth: "You are so polite to me, little girl."

"Zhang Chen, how can you be so rude to my senior sister? You are committing treason! I will spare you this time for the sake of the steamed buns. If there is a next time, I will break your legs."

The little kid grumbled in dissatisfaction while running forward with a steamed bun in his mouth, looking happy.

The two returned to the house, and Zhang Chen sat cross-legged on the bed. Only then did he have time to continue exploring the mysterious spiritual realm.

Seeing Zhang Chen entering into a state of meditation, the little kid munched on a steamed bun and drank cold water. He looked at Zhang Chen who was meditating, and suddenly he felt that the steamed bun in his hand was no longer fragrant.

"Elder Zhang's medicine doesn't seem to be effective? Why is Junior Brother still meditating and practicing Qi, dreaming of becoming an immortal?" The smile on Little Douding's face disappeared, and he turned and walked out of the dormitory, chewing a steamed bun while rushing to Elder Zhang's herbal medicine room: "It must be that the last time I described my condition to Elder Zhang was not accurate enough, so the medicine he prescribed didn't seem to work. It seems to have no effect."

In the Thatched Cottage

Xie Lingyun stood in front of the medicine box, grabbing some herbs and putting them into the cloth bag around his waist.

Over the years, she has not only been looking for ways to fight against the demon, but also trying to crack the method of making the "Spirit-Calming Incense" that was born with the demon.

The incense has the effect of strengthening the soul, clearing the mind and refreshing the brain, and of course various medicinal herbs are indispensable.
