Imagine the world

Old man Yang shook his head and said, "Bai let you read so many cookbooks! I'll give you another one." While talking, he took out a book from nowhere and wanted to hand it to Hua Zhenxing.

But the booklet was taken by Mr. Feng: "Oh, where did you get it?"

Old Man Yang: "I copied it from the Sutra Pavilion at the Zhengyi Gate. It should be done by the younger generation of the Zong family. Mr. Feng laughed at me."

Mr. Feng: "Is this a serious recipe?"

Old man Yang: "It's both a recipe and a pill book. When I helped Xiaohua develop the Wuqi Chunrong Pill, I was somewhat inspired by it."

Mr. Feng also took out a book out of nowhere: "I have a serious cookbook here, Xiaohua, I gave it to you today, you must work harder next time!"

Hua Zhenxing took the two books in a daze. The one given by old man Yang was called "Fan Fangpu", and the one given by Mr. Feng was called "Hundred Flowers", which didn't seem like serious names!

Hua Zhenxing even wondered if the two of them made a mistake. Are they sure it was given to him, not Sima Zhi?

"Meal Recipe" is the handwritten copy of old man Yang. The handwriting of the old man is very beautiful, and it can be used directly to make a copybook. "Hundred Flowers" is a printed ancient book of the Song Dynasty, without even the cover, it seems that it should be kept in a museum.

Hua Zhenxing: "Mr. Feng, where did your book come from?"

Mr. Feng: "I just graduated from university 30 years ago. I stayed in Pingjing for half a year because of work. I spent 200 yuan to buy it in the ghost market."

Hua Zhenxing: "Ghost market? How come I haven't heard of it, and I can still find such good things?"

Mr. Feng: "Your good friend, Little Wanderer, used to like to visit that place, but when he visits, he should change the name to Panjiayuan Fake Market."

In short, this one meal is worth two, from noon to night, when Hua Zhenxing returned to school, it was already past the off-duty time, he hurried and finally flew to Wucheng on time, but the report was still a day late.

For the next whole semester, Hua Zhenxing's life was almost peaceful.This is the normal state of ordinary people, and it is also the normal state of monks. It is impossible for the demon king to raid every day, right? Is that still a human life?

It seems to be leisurely in the calm, but it is actually very busy, or to put it more accurately-Hua Zhenxing is also living a fulfilling life.

Even though he was still at the "mere" seven-level cultivation base, Hua Zhenxing still insisted on offering sacrifices to the world in the gourd every day. The Xuan Mi bead under it.

It is not so much refining as it is absorbing, comprehending his previous cultivation level, innate supernatural powers, etc., and merging them into the form and spirit.

It is fusion but not fusion. Hua Zhenxing's purpose is not to change into that crane, let alone become the ancient white crane demon king in this way.

This process can't be rushed, a semester has passed, Xuan Mizhu is still the same, and it is not like old man Yang said, because his refining has disappeared into nothing.

Manman is still at Pingjing University, and did not transfer to Wucheng Branch of Fei University of Technology like Hua Zhenxing did.This is also what Huazhenxing means. Talented students studying abroad in Jiliguo should see various fields, criticize and learn while learning.

Huazhenhang is still doing an internship in the Wucheng branch of Fangguan Development, and often goes to Pingjing on holidays or weekends.He has been able to fly freely in the shape of swallowing cranes, and his speed is much faster than ordinary cranes. If he wants to go to Pingjing to meet Manman, he has two options——

One is to spend most of the day, swallowing the shape of a crane and flying over by itself.

The second is to spend a few hundred dollars and take the high-speed train in four and a half hours.

Huazhenhang’s choice is to take the high-speed rail!Even if he swallowed his body as a crane, and with the help of wind magic, his flying speed could not keep up with the Dongguo high-speed rail, especially for long distances.

Flying from Wucheng to Pingjing, if you don’t take a plane or fly by yourself, it will take at least twelve hours to turn into a crane even with the help of wind magic.

If the small bench is still there, the time can be faster, but it is not as convenient and comfortable as taking the high-speed rail.But Hua Zhenxing didn't delay practicing Tun Xing Jue because of this, sometimes he would purposely fly out a few stops first, land quietly and then transfer to the high-speed train.

In addition to the form of swallowing cranes, Hua Zhenxing is also practicing the form of swallowing eagles.These two skills are really comparable, after practicing the crane-swallowing form, it is not difficult to learn the eagle-swallowing form.

With the experience of swallowing a crane and flying from Yangyuan Valley to Wucheng, when swallowing a bird, there is no need to make so many detours and make those accidents.

The speed of the eagle shape is obviously faster than that of the crane shape. It is comparable to a high-speed rail when it folds its wings and dives. With Hua Zhenxing's physical fitness and the help of wind magic, it can even be faster than a high-speed rail.

But he is just an eagle after all, and it is impossible to fly long distances in this posture. From the perspective of economical applicability, comfort and convenience, taking the high-speed rail is still a better choice.

It was during this flight that Huazhenxing determined the future high-speed rail construction plan of Huanxiang Tebang, but it was too expensive to build this thing. Fortunately, the high-speed rail mileage required by Huanxiang Tebang was not too exaggerated.

Right now, the True Practice of Tun Diao Xinghua is just practiced by oneself. Old man Yang is right. The inheritance of Tun Xing Jue has higher requirements on the master than the disciples. Teach others.

Hua Zhenxing also planned to remind Sima value at that time, and go to the high mountains to the west of Yangyuan Valley to make a stop, talk to the male and female two-headed crown eagles, and learn some experience from them.

If you can't find the pair of crown eagles, Sima Zhi can also find other eagles.But don't fly all the way like Huazhen after his death. He didn't even meet a serious white crane, but only met a silly bird on the island.

At the end of this semester, Hua Zhenxing is also trying to practice the form of swallowing dragons.Because of the gradual deepening of his understanding of the realm of Tun Xing Jue, he actually entered the sect of Tun Jiao's shape, which is completely different from Tun Crane and Tun Diao.

It's just getting started, so Hua Zhenxing didn't run too far when he occasionally practiced Tun Xing as a Jiao, and only tried his skills in the Qingyi River.

The farthest time, he ran along the Qingyi River to the Yangtze River, which is already the boundary of Jinghu Lake, and he also went ashore to visit Teacher Ding.Ding Qi and his wife are both away from home, so Zhu Shanxian treats him to a meal.

Walking in the river, although Hua Zhenxing tried his best to choose in the dead of night, the ripples of the waves will still be noticed.

As a result, there were rumors of a "Qingyi River monster" in the Wucheng area, and it was also hyped up by the self-media. Many people formed a team to investigate the water monster at night, and stayed at the Qingyi River in the middle of the night to broadcast live...

When encountering such a situation, Hua Zhenxing can detect it from a long distance, and then swims over. What people can see is only the waves in the river.

That day he finished eating at Fangwaimen, and on his way back in the evening, he was still going upstream from the Qingyi River Huajiao. Maybe it was because he drank a little wine to get excited, or he had some experience in practicing swallowing as a dragon recently. Went to Taohuatan in the upper reaches of Qingyi River.

It was already daylight.

Taohuatan is actually a section of Qingyi River, where the river widens and there are cliffs on one side. The river swirls under the cliffs and sees no bottom.

In a secluded place on the edge of Peach Blossom Pond, there stood a woman in white, who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, holding a short white staff in her hand.

The Spotted Jiao transformed by Hua Zhenxing had just sneaked into the Peach Blossom Pond when she saw her put a short stick in her belt, unfasten the necklace and bracelet she was wearing and fasten them together to form a collar with a chain, and then the chain connected the collar Throw it down...

The flying chain turned into hundreds of feet, and the buckle entered the water to lock the spotted jiao. He forcibly lifted Hua Zhenxing from the Peach Blossom Pool to the top of the cliff, and even cast a spell to hide his appearance so that ordinary people would not notice it.

With Hua Zhenxing's cultivation level, no matter whether he is an opponent or not, he might have struggled twice, but at the moment he was unaware and defenseless. He was jumping up and down, and suddenly he was caught by the magic weapon.

The silver dharma ring clasped her waist, the light blue chain tied her all over her body, and her magical powers were also blocked. She lost the ability to change in an instant, and instantly regained her human body. It was only when she was lifted to the shore that she saw the woman in white.

Hua Zhenxing was inexplicably horrified, and the girl seemed to be taken aback, and asked with a frown, "You're actually a human? Put on your clothes!"

Hua Zhenxing: "This fellow Taoist, let go of the magic weapon first!"

The woman in white didn't seem to be afraid that he would turn his back on him, she flicked her wrist and loosened the clasp, and slowly untied the ring and chain, put the bracelet and necklace back on, and then took out the short staff and held it in her hand.

Hua Zhenxing puts on his clothes very fast now. When he turned around, not only the water on his body was completely dry, but he also took out the clothes and shoes from the demon refining gourd and put them on.

The woman in white asked: "What kind of secret method is this? A good-looking person is not of the genus of scales. What kind of skill is he practicing?" She shook her head and said, "No, no, you haven't transformed into a dragon, nor have you reborn."

Hua Zhenxing: "This is Tun Xing Jue. I was just now practicing Tun Xing Jue... May I ask who are you?" He briefly introduced Tun Xing Jue's identity with his spiritual thoughts, and then asked a question he cared about the most. question.

The woman in white: "My surname is Yun, and Fengyun Zhiyun is a person from outside the world, so you don't need to ask any more questions. Recently, I heard that there are suspected dragons appearing in the Qingyi River, and I was ordered to investigate. It turned out to be a misunderstanding."

Hua Zhenxing: "On orders? Did President Mei ask you to come? He just greeted me directly, or just sent a message."

The woman in white didn't bother, and said to herself: "Although today is a misunderstanding, there are still a few things you must pay attention to. First, don't break the precept of loose behavior, don't shock the world, and you have caused rumors to spread all over the place recently. .

Second, walking in the river is also dangerous.It is said that there are several places in the water system on the boundary of Wucheng that cannot be visited. On the water surface is a bridge built by the overhaul in ancient times. "

As she spoke, she stretched out her short staff and pointed at Hua Zhenxing's eyebrows, and sent a divine thought.Its spirituality resembles a heart plate, as if the clouds are condensed into a representation of various water systems around Wucheng, and nine locations are marked.

She warned Huazhen not to go to these places when walking to avoid accidents. Three of them are near Zhengyisan Mountain, and the other is in the urban area of ​​Wucheng.

Hua Zhenxing clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yun, for reminding me!" Then he wondered, "These nine places are small rivers, how can that little water pass the dragon?"

The woman in white: "Of course it's impossible on weekdays, but it may not be the case when the floods are flooding. In short, you have to be careful to avoid it."

Hua Zhenxing: "Can I ask a few more questions, what kind of artifacts are your bracelets and necklaces?"

The woman in white: "Beast-locking rings and demon-blocking cables are not divine tools. The so-called divine tools are nothing more than being able to fit the form and spirit, and may not be more useful than some magic weapons that are not divine weapons. Beast-locking rings and demon-blocking cables are such magic weapons."

The names of these two magic weapons are very cruel. Of course, Hua Zhenxing knows how powerful they are after having endured them personally, and at a glance, he knows that they are this set of combiners. They can be disassembled and used separately, or they can be buckled together as a set. A magic weapon.

Such a ferocious magic weapon is actually regarded as a necklace and bracelet by this girl, it can't be offended!Hua Zhenxing still wanted to ask a few more questions, but the girl waved her short stick, and disappeared in a flash.

Hua Zhenxing was stunned for a long time on the high cliff by the water, feeling that the Kunlun practice world is really hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and a master will pop up whenever he can't guarantee it. At least the current Hua Zhenxing is not an opponent.

According to what the girl said, today she is here to investigate the whereabouts of the dragon, even if there is really a spotted dragon in the water, she will use the lock to question it, but in the end she locked Hua Zhenxing...

You can't let go of inflation just because you have become a mysterious supernatural power, you have to be humble and cautious at all times!

The reminder from the woman in white is also very important. Hua Zhenxing's practice of the form of swallowing dragons is also to gain experience for future Manman. Probe some more.

After all, Hua Zhenxing didn't ask about the identity of the woman in white because she didn't intend to tell him.

The woman in white introduced nine ancient bridges in the Wucheng area. The sword hanging under the bridge can be used to cut into demon dragons. Hua Zhenxing plans to visit all of them when he has time. go together.

Hua Zhenxing couldn't help sighing secretly, although Yang Yuangu has developed rapidly and seems to have become a big force, but it still lacks a lot of foundation.Among other things, does Huanxiang Tebang have such an ancient bridge?

Apart from this accident, Hua Zhenxing's practice of swallowing the shape was generally smooth.On this day, he returned from Peach Blossom Pond to Huanxiang Garden, and instead of walking across the river, he turned into a crane and flew.

As soon as he landed, he received a call from Mr. Feng.Mr. Feng asked: "Xiao Hua, you have been reading "Fan Fang Pu" and "Hundred Flowers" for almost four months. Have you got any results?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Thank you Mr. Feng for presenting the classics, I have gained a lot!"

Mr. Feng: "Why didn't I see it? What have you been doing all day long? Since you have learned a lot, then apply what you have learned. When will you be able to make a table of proof?"

"Mantis chrysalis" is the northeast dialect of Dongguo. It is not only a kind of insect but also a verb, which roughly means twisting and turning.Hua Zhenxing understood Mr. Feng's words, and he immediately replied: "It's easy to handle. When are you free?"

Mr. Feng: "You set a date, I'm free anytime!"

Chapter 538

On the day Hua Zhenxing flew back to Wucheng, Mr. Yang and Mr. Feng gave him a classic book respectively. Hua Zhenxing also studied it carefully during this period, and the harvest was indeed very great.

First of all, let's talk about "Fan Fang Pu". Old man Yang said that he copied it from the Sutra Library at Zhengyi Gate. It was bound into a booklet with the highest quality sandalwood, with small calligraphy and ink illustrations.

On the cover of the manuscript, there are three large characters of Fan Fang Pu, and next to it is a small character "Compiled by Xianjia Yang Tiangan". After opening it, there is no order and no postscript, and it is directly the content.

Hua Zhenxing has never seen the original handwriting of this book, but just looking at old man Yang's handwriting, it can be called amazing!

In fact, if old man Yang wanted to pass on his classic, there was no need to write another copy himself. It would be easier to pass on the original version by photocopying it or directly copying it with spiritual thoughts.

Hua Zhenxing didn't know that the reason why old man Yang did this was that the original handwriting was not very eye-catching, but he didn't want this book to be passed down, so he made some corrections when transcribing it.

After reading it, Hua Zhenxing decided to store Yang Tehong's copy in the Dian Pavilion of Yangyuangu, and issue a batch of photocopies internally for the tutors to study.

What Hua Zhenxing didn't even know was that there were inscriptions and postscripts at the front and end of the original handwriting, expressing his admiration for a female cultivator named "Zhi Yan".

This book was written by the immortal Yang Tiangan during the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Kingdom. The purpose of this book is to give Zhiyan to please him, and at the same time to show off his knowledge and talents.

Zhiyan is the Taoist partner of the patriarch Zhengyi. He obviously wanted to poach the corner of the wall. Although he did not succeed in digging the corner of the wall, this "Fan Fang Pu" is undeniable historical evidence.

Later disciples of Zhengyi School did not destroy this book, but put it in the Sutra Pavilion to eat ashes, which is considered very generous.

There is another thing that Hua Zhenxing is not clear about. "Fan Fang Pu" is in the Sutra Pavilion of Zhengyi Gate. It is a classic that only the heads and elders of the past dynasties are qualified to consult. Other disciples, such as Guangren, can't see it. of.

As for why old man Yang was able to make a copy, anyway, he didn't explain it, and Hua Zhenxing didn't know the inside story.

At any rate, he is quite particular about the old man, so he didn't copy down the two inscriptions and postscripts, but just copied the content directly and made appropriate corrections, and saved some redundant gossip in the book.

Yang Tehong said that when he helped Hua Zhenxing develop the prescription of Wuqi Chunrong Pill, he was somewhat inspired by this book.Hua Zhenxing also noticed it, because he also received a lot of inspiration.

The name "Fan Fang Pu" looks like a recipe, but there are not many dishes in it that can be served in a serious banquet.A lot of its pages are describing how to refine various other things using Qunfang as a material, it is better to say that it is a book of alchemy.

People outside the world can eat with clouds and fragrant flowers, which was a kind of taste in ancient times.Various kinds of soups, teas, flower dew, etc. are made with various fragrances, which not only have various special effects, but also assist in spiritual practice.

For example, there is a kind of "Wandering Rose Water", which is made from the petals of Seicao rosea.Not only can it relax the tendons and activate collaterals, harmonize the blood and calm the liver, but after taking it, there will be a faint fragrance lingering around the body, which can refresh the mind of those who smell it.

What really catches Hua Zhenxing's eyes is a "five-color and five-taste drink" recorded in the book.It can assist in walking, sitting, and lying down, and calm the soul. Even if ordinary people drink a few drops before going to bed, the effect of calming the nerves and beautifying the face is quite good.

The shadow of Wuqi Chunrong Pill can be seen in this, and its refining technique is also worthy of Hua Zhenxing's study, but it is a pity that Hua Zhenxing can't refine it now.

One of the reasons is that the materials are rare and hard to find, and the other is the requirement for the refiner to have at least nine realms of cultivation.

The Dan Fangpu in "Fan Fang Pu" basically has these two characteristics. It is feasible if only a small amount of refining is done by the masters of the Xianjia, but there is no basis for large-scale promotion, let alone mass production in a similarly industrialized manner.

But "Meal Fangpu" is also an important textbook for Hua Zhenxing, from which he can understand and learn the various methods of refining elixir.

As for the "Hundred Flowers" that Mr. Feng gave him, the style of "Fan Fang Pu" is different.

This set of Song edition books may be due to its age, and even the cover is gone. If it weren't for the words "Baihuaxian" sewn into the pages of the book, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to figure out the name.

But its pages are very well preserved. If you only look at the first "dish" recorded in it, you will think that it is similar to "Fan Fang Pu". It is called Rui Mei Mi.

The so-called Ruimei honey is rose-red and translucent like honey. When you take it, put a drop under your tongue and it will melt. There will be a cool sweet fragrance permeating the whole body. As medicine, it can also treat various internal injuries and assist in the recovery of the furnace. At the same time, it has the effect of soothing the spirit and moving the energy.

Ruimei honey is also useful. It can be contained under the tongue when practicing the jade liquid circle in the way of alchemy, which is wonderful for helping the practice.

Hua Zhenxing feels that the "Ruimei Honey" in "Baihuawei" seems to be fighting against the "Wandering Rose Dew" in "Fan Fangpu", because the materials used are all roses and thorns.

Ruimei honey can be refined by Hua Zhenxing. The minimum requirement for the alchemist is to have at least a Dacheng practice, and Hua Zhenxing is not only a Dacheng monk, but also a master of Wai Dan.

As for the rosy grass thorn rose, Hua Zhenxing can also get it, Zhengyimen has it, Qianliu Mountain has it, and Fanglongguan's Baihua yam field also has it.

But if you look at "Hundred Flowers" later, you will find that the so-called Ruimei honey seems to be just a bluff, and the content behind it is mainly recipes, either directly using flowers as ingredients, or using flowers as supplements and seasonings with flowers.

There are cold dishes and stir-fried dishes, steamed dishes and deep-fried dishes, fried dishes and soups, and more interestingly, meat and vegetables!

How can there be meat dishes in "Hundred Flowers"?Although there are flowers in every dish, it is not only flowers. Sometimes flowers are the main material and sometimes auxiliary materials.

For example, there is a very common home-cooked dish in modern Dongguo called Mushu Pork, which uses day lily flowers. Can it be said that it is a vegetarian dish? Although there is no Mushu meat in "Hundred Flowers", there are several similar dishes.

For example, there is a dish that uses fresh lotus leaves and lotus flowers that are about to bloom, but the main ingredient is frogs.Hua Zhenxing had heard of Beggar Chicken, but he had never heard of Lotus Frog, and its name was Meiren Chushui.

The recipes in "Hundred Flowers" have another feature. Most of them use common ingredients that are easy to collect.

For example, there is a pickle, which is called pickled cucumbers. The cucumbers with flowers are used, and they are picked when the flowers are not withered.This kind of cucumber is about the size of a girl's finger, and the flowers are picked together, and it looks quite delicate when it is done.
