Imagine the world

The elixir is not bad, there are always experts who can analyze its ingredients, speculate on its efficacies, and maybe even recognize it.However, the refining and use of talismans often have unique secrets.

Those who haven't got the trick not only can't use it, but forcibly urging it with mana may even hurt themselves.Because the talisman is a dead thing after all, this is to prevent it from being taken away and used against his own family.

No wonder the three brothers ran away immediately after taking the things, and actually ran to the Black Desolation Continent thousands of miles away, and lived in seclusion on the outskirts of Banda City in the chaotic Jili State, because they also knew exactly what they got.

They hid their names in Sanhu Town, not to mention low-key, but over time they became a little bit complacent, thinking that no one would find them again, and became arrogant in this dilapidated place, but unexpectedly they ran into Hua Zhenxing and the three old men.

Guangren also brought a treasure out of the mission, which was a "gift" entrusted to him by Teacher Ding. It was a very small golden gourd that could fit in the palm of his hand.Listen to his introduction that this is a space artifact, or it can be used as a space artifact.

Hua Zhenxing did not refuse this time, because Guangren just helped to bring it over. Whether he accepts or rejects it is a matter between him and Teacher Ding Qi.

Moreover, based on Guangren's tone of voice, he should not be familiar with Ding Qi, and he used the address "a Mr. Ding Qi" instead of fellow Ding Qi, as if he was not in the same circle.

When Guangren handed the golden gourd to Hua Zhenxing, he specifically explained: "This device does not have the inheritance of the soul brand, and the formula to use it is the Fangwai secret method, or the Fangwai secret method is the way to obtain the inheritance of its soul brand—— These are the exact words that Mr. Ding Qi asked me to convey."

These words are very interesting. It is said that all artifacts are inherited with the imprint of spirit and soul, but Ding Qi did not directly give it to Hua Zhenxing, and Hua Zhenxing can obtain it in another way, which is the secret method of Fang Wai.

Locke wondered: "Then how did Daoist Guangren put things in and take them out again? Could it be that you have also learned the secret method of Fang Wai?"

Guangren shook his head with a smile and said: "Mr. Ding Qi helped put the things in. He left me a magic seal to let me take them out again. It's not my supernatural power."

There are such artifacts and such secret techniques in the world?Hua Zhenxing felt that Teacher Ding still wanted to "seduce" him to practice Fangwai's secret method, so he sent such a golden gourd, but he didn't say what level he should practice Fangwai's secret method.

He has Teacher Ding's contact information, put the gourd away first, and if he decides to accept it, he can return a thank you gift to Teacher Ding.

The next day, Locke, Zha Duo, Jiang Huaigu, Cui Wanhe, and Tang Senzhi left Yangyuan Valley because they still had jobs and could not leave for a long time.Others also have jobs, but they stay here and don't leave. They even asked the people who left to ask for a week's leave for them, and appointed substitutes.

Those five people really couldn't get away, and the others stayed behind. This is a rare opportunity to communicate and ask for advice.And Shi Shuangcheng is still in confinement, everyone is watching the fun, so we have to wait until she comes out to say hello before leaving.

Before the five left, the leaders held a special meeting and drew up a list of 12 people, all of whom had broken through the fourth level some time ago.They will be officially transferred to work in Yangyuan Valley, and they will report for duty next week.

Twelve staff members are definitely not enough for the huge Yangyuan Valley, but for the time being, only so many can be dispatched, and other places are also short of people. It seems that the training and promotion of Yangyuan Teachers must be stepped up.

According to Manman's knowledge, it is no problem to hold another training session before the end of July, but it may be a bit reluctant to hold two sessions.It's not that there is no one, but that many qualified students are not available, such as engineer Jiang Huaigu, it is difficult to take a two-week vacation during this period.

Van Dyck is also very busy with work outside, but he just insists on staying for a few more days.

With so many utensils stored in the warehouse of the research institute, he has the feeling that a poor man becomes rich overnight, and he has a feeling of material abundance overnight, wandering around the warehouse area every day like a miser.

Van Dyck claims to be a collector. When he was young, he loved to collect sparks, that is, the covers of matchboxes, as well as various cigarette boxes, card paintings, and even popsicle sticks. When he grew up, he collected stamps and coins from various countries...

Now that he saw so many magic treasures, talismans, pills, and treasures of heaven and earth, he didn't want to go back.

As the director of the R&D department of Huanxiang Industry, it is impossible for him not to go back to work, but it is a great enjoyment to be able to spend one day here.

In the past few days, apart from eating, sleeping, practicing, and counting utensils, Van Dyke also found time to chat with Guangren, mainly to inquire about the situation of various magic weapons, and the focus was on their magical effects.Guangren's knowledge in this area is very profound. Since ancient times, many magic weapons have appeared in the Kunlun practice world, even if he has never seen them, he has heard of them.

The reason why Van Dyke is interested in this information is not only because of collection addiction, but more importantly, he recently wanted to write a document, tentatively titled "The Magical Use of Ancient Magical Weapons and the Functions of Modern Technology Products", focusing on two aspects of the discussion.

The first question is divided into three parts: the magical functions of various magic weapons that have been legendary since ancient times, which functions of modern scientific and technological products have been realized; which functions of modern scientific and technological products have not yet been realized; , or in other words, it is the research and development goal of a certain type of technological product.

The second question is divided into two parts: what are the functions of modern technological products that can be realized or even surpassed by magic weapons; what needs of people are not yet met by modern technology products, but can be realized by magic weapons.

These two issues are related to each other, but they are also different research directions.Now that there are so many physical artifacts, Van Dyke's research can officially begin.Mo Shangtong encouraged this, Hua Zhenxing was also very interested, and wanted to participate together when he had time.

Van Dyke specially made a big book, and asked Guangren every day for advice on various magic weapons, and recorded them densely. Three days later, Guangren simply left him a spiritual mind seal.

Chapter 286

Van Dyck is very busy, what is Shi Shuangcheng doing?She has been working on construction these days.

On the day of arriving at Yangyuan Valley, Shi Shuangcheng built a gazebo with four corners and pointed bamboo tiles, and also had a buffet BBQ dinner.The next day, Shi Shuangcheng spent a whole day building another house on stilts.

There are twelve square wooden columns under the house. The lower end of the pillars is a round bluestone foundation, and the upper end supports the cage beam. The cage beam is covered with a thick and compact wooden floor. The height of the house is about three meters from the ground.

The structural drawing given by Yang Tehong is a rectangular room. Shi Shuangcheng added a little design to divide the room into two rooms, which are equivalent to a living room and a bedroom.There is a porch outside the front door of the house, and steps are built from the porch to the gazebo.

When cooking in the evening, she yelled: "Senior, can you give me more blueprints? The more furniture, the better!" Then she yelled again, "Thank you!" up.

Shi Shuangcheng not only added a little design by herself, she also built facilities that were not in the blueprint given by old man Yang.For example, she built a water tower high on the lake bank behind the house, made pipes and laid the water system, and built a washroom by the lake, and built a kitchen outside the gazebo.

Next to the house is a big tree that is as thick as several people hugging each other, and she built a tree house on the tree at a height of more than ten meters from the ground.There is no ladder on the tree trunk, and this tree house is not accessible to ordinary people.

It took her three days to build all these facilities, and she also made two sets of tables, chairs and benches, one set in the gazebo, the other in the living room, and a very comfortable reclining chair outside the door. on the porch.

She has been fasting since the early morning of the third day. Old man Yang did not teach the fasting method, she knew it herself.At nightfall on the third day, the drizzle stopped, the clouds parted and the moon rose. Shi Shuangcheng stood in the gazebo and looked at the first-quarter moon on the mountain top in the distance.

She looked smug, relaxed and about to burst out, and those who didn't know thought she had done a lot!

Then turn around and look around at the various facilities built by myself in the past three days. The waterside in the valley, the flowers and plants, the bamboo and wood are secluded, it is a fairy hermit residence with beautiful scenery.

Then she walked out of the gazebo with her hands behind her back, pointed her toes on the trunk of the tree and walked up steadily like climbing the clouds, and entered the secret tree house she built.The magic weapon climbing cloud boots is so magical, as long as there is a little mana to attach to, you can walk as usual.

On the fourth and fifth days, Shi Shuangcheng did not leave the tree house, she was practicing in seclusion.After all, she is a monk, and her cultivation base has reached the perfection of the four realms. In fact, she had a vague feeling when she first arrived in Yangyuan Valley, as if the opportunity to break through is here and now.

A few days ago, she personally built the place for cleaning and repairing, and added some things according to her own wishes. In fact, it was a process of entering the country calmly and concentratingly, otherwise she would not have started bigu from the third day.

During this period of time, it was also the beginning of the laying of the foundation of the fairy family's cave-heaven formation. Although the mystery of good fortune cannot be expressed, she also has a real feeling.

On the sixth day, according to the five-day confinement period, half a day had actually passed, but Shi Shuangcheng didn't say that the time had come and let his aunt out quickly.Because she is comprehending the mystery, a divine thought has just been imprinted in the primordial spirit.

The method of sending out this divine thought was extremely ingenious, and it did not disturb Shi Shuangcheng who was cultivating at all. The content of the divine thought was an introduction to the Yangyuangu formation, and its core was actually the inheritance of the divine artifact Fufeng Pan.

Of course, Shi Shuangcheng knew that there was a large cave formation here, and he could vaguely sense the mystery of the operation and changes of the formation. Only now did he really touch its core.But she is not the master of the artifact like Hua Zhenxing, even if she has the inheritance of the soul brand, she will not be able to operate the formation hub in this position.

As soon as the idea came up, the body and spirit suddenly shifted, as if the space had been changed.Without opening his eyes, Shi Shuangcheng knew that he had inexplicably arrived at the stone pavilion in the middle of the long embankment, and happened to be sitting at the center of the Yangyuan Valley formation.

Presumably, some expert cast a spell to move her here, but she had no time to express her surprise. The opportunity was so rare, and she concentrated on turning the Fufeng Pan, and the whole Yangyuan Valley seemed to be turned into an interior scene...

At dawn, Shi Shuangcheng was still sitting in the bridge pavilion, and the morning breeze blew the ancient willow at the head of the bridge, thousands of fresh branches and leaves fluttered like silk.Surrounded by wild flowers and trees, where Shi Shuangcheng had been imprisoned for five days, another visiting group came, consisting of all the other members of Yangyuan Valley.

Those who entered the house entered the house, those who climbed the tree, knocked on the pillars, touched the chairs, everyone was observing the achievements of Shi Shuangcheng in the past few days.Hua Zhenxing was standing on a slope far away from the lake shore, inspecting the water tower, and couldn't help nodding his head in praise: "The design is ingenious!"

There are lakes here, and the lakes gather water from streams and springs in the surrounding mountains.

Of course, the headquarters of Yangyuanshi has a water source, including the dormitory area, research institute, and training department.The water source comes from the high mountain range extending into the valley behind the dormitory area. Natural streams form many deep pools in the mountain.

The water quality there was already very good. According to Mo Shangtong's plan, the three old men also built cascading pools according to the terrain to purify and store incoming water, and built water supply pipelines leading to the bottom.

However, the terrain in this area has neither natural deep pools nor conditions for building cascading pools.Shi Shuangcheng used hollow bamboo pipes to draw water from the high stream, and simply erected a water tower.

Ke Fuzi stood beside Hua Zhenxing. Looking at the area below, the old man twitched his beard slightly and said, "Well, it's not bad! It's a good place to take a break from the noise and study quietly."

Hua Zhenxing reminded: "Master, Yangyuan Valley is originally a blessed place. It is far away from the hustle and bustle. It can't be said to be a quiet place in the middle of the noise, right? And although there are no cars, horses and people in this place, there are birds singing and cicadas singing during the day and insects singing and frogs singing at night. It doesn't seem very quiet."

Ke Fuzi gave him a blank look: "There are sounds of nature between movement and stillness, separated by mountains and rivers, which is in line with the state of pure heart. According to your plan for Yangyuan Valley, the headquarters will accommodate thousands of people in the future. Don't you think it's too late?" Isn't it noisy enough?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Yangyuan Valley has hundreds of square kilometers. It is said that it is larger than the second ring road of Dongguo Pingjing. Even if thousands of people settle in in the future, it will still be less than the population of a small town. It is quiet and peaceful enough. How can we say that What's going on?"

Ke Mengchao asked hesitantly: "You child, have you learned how to argue?"

Hua Zhenxing said with a smile: "That's what I said. In fact, there is a true meaning between movement and stillness. It's good to be quiet, and it's also good to be lively. It depends on how quiet and lively. This is exactly what your old man taught me. How many of you The courtyard built on the hill behind the office is the real quiet place, but this is just a place to live in solitude."

Ke Mengchao nodded slightly: "That's right! But I think the structure of this place is still in a hurry, and it can be improved."

Hua Zhenxing: "After all, the time is too short. Miss Shi Shuangcheng is only one person, and it only took three days."

The people visited and exchanged in twos and threes, and quickly reached a consensus that the scenery here could continue to be improved.Guangren and Yue Gaole accompanied the three old seniors to sit and watch in the gazebo, while the rest of the seniors joined hands.

The front of the house on stilts faces the lake obliquely, so as not to be protected from the oncoming lake wind and humidity.The proportion of the distant mountain view and the lake view is the golden section in the field of vision, and there are bamboo forests and flowers and trees nearby, so outsiders can't see it clearly from a distance, but the scenery here is not hindered.

There is still a porch in front of the stilt house, where you can sit and enjoy tea and watch the rain.There is a stepped walkway in the corridor leading to the waterside pavilion in front, and a rain-proof and sun-shaded corridor is added to the stepped walkway.The corridor is composed of bamboo columns, bamboo beams, bamboo supports, and bamboo tiles, and extends from the gazebo to the kitchen and bathroom.

Bamboo, wood, brick, and stone are all materials that are refined according to their needs, whether they are simple or refined, so that they are durable and waterproof.

The scale of the stilt house has been tripled, with one on the left and one on the left and one on the left, and the overhanging corridor outside the door is integrated.The middle part was originally built by Shi Shuangcheng, and it was completely changed into a living hall, with a screen on one side, separating about [-]% of the area as the front hall and [-]% of the area as the back hall.On both sides of the front and back halls, there is a living room on the left and right.

Below the house, between the pillars is an open space on all sides, which is equivalent to the first floor without window walls, with a height of about three meters and an area of ​​150 square meters.With tables and chairs set up, you can play poker, push mahjong, have a barbecue, hold a reception, and you can also splash ink, recite poems and compose Fu, which combines elegance and vulgarity.

Everyone present had their own magical powers, and everything was done in the afternoon.Hua Zhenxing nodded in satisfaction and said, "This is a very good place for cultivation in Yangyuan Valley."

Wang Fengshou: "It's also a good place for team building!"

Yue Gaole: "Are you going to do Qingxiu or team building?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Between movement and stillness, there is true meaning."

Manman: "In the future, we can rearrange the trap so that outsiders cannot break into it."

This afternoon, everyone started to build a group, or collect, or carry, wash vegetables and light a fire, and also held a group self-service BBQ reception, which felt like consecrating this "Dongfu" project.

Yue Gaole didn't come empty-handed, he also had a space artifact, and he brought a lot of wine with him.There are the expensive ones from Luoba Island, and they taste pretty good after a taste; there are also all kinds of sauce, fragrance, and strong aromas from the East, all of which taste good; besides the white and red ones, of course there are also Beer, including all kinds of craft beer.

Guangren said with emotion: "It would be even better if there is Lao Chunhuang!" Yue Gaole turned cold and pretended not to hear.

The team building lasted until midnight, and the three old people had already left at some point.The others didn't leave, so they found a place to rest here... The next morning, Shi Shuangcheng hadn't seen anything.

Many people took a week's leave to stay in the valley. Seeing that the time was about to pass, Shi Shuangcheng hadn't broken through yet.The reason why they haven't left since last night is that they stayed here to wait for Shi Shuangcheng to leave the customs.But this kind of thing can't be rushed, and cultivation should pay attention to letting nature take its course.

At about eleven o'clock in the morning, there was a loud shout that made everyone cheer up, and Shi Shuangcheng's voice shouted: "Hua Zhenxing, where are you? Come out, I want to fight you one-on-one!"

Chapter 287

In ancient and modern times, there has never been a shortage of people who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal. Shi Shuangcheng shouted, listening to the voice to argue, she should be in the small square in the center of the teaching area.Before Hua Zhenxing could speak, everyone ran over with a whimper, only Manman stood beside Hua Zhenxing and asked, "She wants to fight with you, will you fight her?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Let's go and have a look first, then we can talk. It's okay to have a contest."

Hua Zhenxing knew in his heart that Shi Shuangcheng did it purely on purpose.Everyone didn't hide their whereabouts just now, she was running the array hub on the bridge, she should be able to clearly detect the movement in the valley, there is no need to ask where he is, and everyone knows that everyone is waiting for her here, run to the small square and call out Just want to make noise.

When Hua Zhenxing rushed over, even the three elderly people were present, and someone moved all the chairs and benches over.When Shi Shuangcheng saw him, he strode closer and said, "You are Hua Zhenxing?"

Guangren persuaded from the side: "Little uncle, we are visiting as guests this time, so we must not make trouble for no reason."

Shi Shuangcheng waved his hands and said, "You're making trouble for no reason! I accepted the five-day penalty for trespassing and trespassing, and I even helped them build a Qingxiu cave. But isn't it normal for monks to worship mountains and learn from each other to testify? ?”

Guangren: "That's as long as the master is happy, otherwise it will become a door-to-door provocation."

Shi Shuangcheng: "Hua Zhenxing, are you happy?"

Hua Zhenxing smiled: "Thank you for traveling so far with Daoist Guangren. Yang Yuangu should have treated you well. The five-day punishment is over, so there is no need to mention the matter of trespassing. If you want to try We are also willing to accompany you to try our skills, just now you said that you want to single out, do you single out me, or single out us?"

In fighting, Huazhen has never shown any bravery. He can throw a grenade if he can, and a machine gun if he can. If he can’t, he can also use artillery. It is best to use the army to face the master. This is the survival experience summed up in the cruel environment.

So if anyone came to him to fight, he didn't mind gathering everyone around him to beat him up.

As for the so-called Jianghu rules, he had never heard of them. The principles taught to him by the three old men were all about whether to fight and how to fight, but they didn't specifically say whether to use a gun or a cannon.

Upon hearing this, Manman took a step forward and stood side by side with Hua Zhenxing, and several other people also stood beside Hua Zhenxing.Shi Shuangcheng was startled, and then smiled: "It's just a rivalry, it's not a battle against the enemy! I heard the elders praised you, now that you have just reached the five realms, and you want to try your skills, I will single you out!"

Hua Zhenxing nodded and said, "Your honored guest, since I have just broken through and want to prove the means of cultivation, I am willing to cooperate."

Shi Shuangcheng: "Well, we don't rely on magic treasures and talismans, we fight with our own cultivation base, otherwise we will be considered bullying you."

Old Man Yang had already found a chair to sit on, with both legs crossed up, holding the teapot in one hand, shaking his head at this moment: "Not right, not right!"

Shi Shuangcheng: "Senior, what's wrong?"

Old Man Yang: "Many of the methods of monks lie in magic weapons, just like the swords and guns of warriors."

Ke Mengchao: "But it would be too dangerous for Xiaohua to use the Shenyin Spear."

Mo Shangtong: "Even if you don't use magic treasures and talismans, they are far from being able to freely retract them with their cultivation base."

Yang Tehong: "Then what do you say?"

Mo Shangtong: "Don't use supernatural powers at all, just compete with your own mana realm, and each fight with a mortal weapon."

Ke Mengchao: "After talking for a long time, isn't it a fight?"

Shi Shuangcheng interjected: "Seniors, how do you fight?"

Yang Tehong: "Give a stick to each person!" As he spoke, he waved his hand, and two long sticks whizzed through the air. Each stick was more than four meters long, with a sharpened tip, and the stick body was as thick as an egg. .

Ke Mengchao frowned and said, "Can an ordinary wooden stick withstand the strength of a five-level monk?"

Mo Shangtong reached out and took the long stick: "Let me test it." He held one in each of his left and right hands for a long time, and finally nodded, "No problem, it's not unbearable."

Guangren was a little anxious, he took two steps forward and said: "This stick can also hurt people, I'm afraid it won't be well controlled."

Yang Tehong: "It doesn't matter, we are here, and we are not afraid of hurting the other."

But Shi Shuangcheng shook his head and said, "No, we have to fight one-on-one with all hands and feet. You can't interfere, otherwise who will win or lose?"

Yang Tehong asked with a smile: "Then do you have any better ideas?"

Shi Shuangcheng took out a handful of talismans and said: "This is Lu Wu's talisman. If it is used for supernatural power, it can last for a quarter of an hour at most. If it is used for body protection, it can last for half an hour."

Old man Yang crossed his legs and got out of the chair with a whoosh. Shi Shuangcheng's eyes blurred, and he found that old man Yang had already sat back and was holding the talisman in his hand. He didn't know how he got it.

Yang Tehong brightened his eyes and said, "Luwu talisman, you actually have so many good things like this? Girl, you are inexperienced. Don't use talismans like this in the future. If the other party has a master, you won't be able to use it like this." No chance of using them."

Yue Gaole also said: "The real enemy is not to seize the talisman at the first time. As long as you kill the person who holds the talisman, no matter how powerful the talisman is, it is useless. So you must pay attention in the future, don't think that you have more treasures than you can get." Have nothing to fear."

Hua Zhenxing could see that old man Yang was trying to scare her on purpose, otherwise would he still have to fly out by himself if he seized the amulet?It was to add some special effects to make Shi Shuangcheng's impression even deeper.
