I practice ruthless way

Chapter 11 Lakeside Rock Search

The last time Xiao Man came to visit Yunfeng, he had a conversation with Tan Wenzhou on the stone table outside the hall.This time, Dao Tong directly welcomed Xiao Man into the hall, served a cup of hot tea, and respectfully called "Your Highness":

"My peak master is still dealing with some matters. Your Highness, please stay here later. If you need anything, please feel free to speak up."

Xiao Man nodded at Daotong: "Thank you."

The tea is this year's Mingqian new tea, with a very clear aroma and clear soup.However, Xiao Man only took a sip, then put down the teacup, and looked at the situation in the hall calmly.

Apart from Xueyi Peak and Mingguang Peak, this is the first time Xiao Man entered other people's Dao Temple.Compared with the one on Xueyi Peak, the interior layout of Xingyun Peak Taoist Hall is more serious. There are no rocking chairs and reclining chairs suitable for leisure. Ancient paintings are hung on the walls, tables, chairs, screens are exquisitely carved, and the patterns are mostly flowers and birds.

Xiao Man looked over slowly, and his eyes fell on the ancient shelf on the other side of the Taoist hall, and asked Daotong aloud: "Can I go there and have a look?"

"Of course, please, Your Highness." Dao Tong gestured.

He got up and went over.

There are a few magical artifacts on the shelf, which Xiao Man can barely recognize. There are more books and picture scrolls. On a certain layer in the middle, there are several cans of Danqing paint.It's not hard to see that this peak master Tan is a person who likes Danqing.

Gradually, Xiao Man was attracted to something.

It was an egg, placed on a wooden frame, similar in size to a goose egg, with a very white shell and very beautiful silver patterns.

Xiao Man was curious about this egg, and raised his hand to touch it lightly.

"This is left by a certain ancestor, but he never said what kind of egg it is." Tan Wenzhou appeared behind Xiao Man at some point, "I think it must belong to some kind of bird. Does Your Highness have any idea?"

Xiao Man moved slightly away from the Bogu stand, and shook his head at Tan Wenzhou: "I don't recognize it, I'm afraid it will have to wait until the shell is broken."

"This egg has been placed here for a hundred years, and there has been no movement. Maybe it's because my fate with it has not yet come." Tan Wenzhou shook his feather fan lightly, and said in a rather helpless tone, "However... if the master is willing to come back, then I can go and ask."

Xiao Man was slightly surprised by these words.Today's head of Gushan is from Master Yan Wushu's generation, and the ancestors will count down one generation. Although Shen Yiru looks young, she is actually several hundred years old. How old is her uncle and uncle?If he was still alive, would he stay in this world instead of choosing to ascend?

Tan Wenzhou saw what Xiao Man was thinking: "It's one of those two on Tingyun Peak."

"Are you two ancestors?" Xiao Man stared in surprise. He always thought that the head of the sect was of the same generation as an uncle or uncle.

"Those two stayed in the lonely mountain for too long, and they said it was boring. They traveled out of the mountain many years ago, and only came back once in a while. Now there are not many people who know their affairs." Seeing Xiao Man's expression, Tan Wenzhou couldn't help it. Laughing, "Don't talk about them, let me guess, His Highness is here for the sake of the altar?"

"Peak Lord has a wonderful plan." Xiao Manchao handed over Wenzhou.

Tan Wenzhou waved his fan, looked at Xiao Man for a moment, and asked: "Speaking of which, the master has entrusted the altar to Lord Ling Guang to handle it. Isn't it better for His Highness to ask him than to ask me?"

Xiao Man: "..."

The last time Tan Wenzhou asked him if he had any conflicts with Yan Wushu, he denied it, and now he is acting like a slap in the face at the beginning, which is a bit embarrassing.

Forget it, sooner or later he will break with Yan Wushu, and by then everyone will know that there is a conflict between the two of them.

Xiao Man sighed softly in his heart, intending not to hide it anymore, but Tan Wenzhou said: "It's just a casual question, Your Highness don't need to take it to heart."

This topic was over, Tan Wenzhou took Xiao Man back to the other side of the Taoist hall, the tea on the table was already cold, he asked Taoist boy to change into a new pot, brushed his clothes and sat down, straight to the point:

"To tell you the truth, after the Buddhist altar was brought back to the lonely mountain, the head of the sect summoned all the peak masters. I took a closer look and found that the things sealed inside were extremely evil. They had survived for at least a thousand years, and their realm was at least too high. Mysterious Upper Realm."

There are five realms in Xuantian Continent, which are Baoxu, Shouyi, Guiyuan, Taixuan, and Taiqing.

Cultivation is like climbing a tower, the higher you go, the fewer people can stand on it.The realm of Taiqing saints is the closest level to Feisheng, and there are very few people in this realm in Xuantian Continent today.Secondly, the Taixuan Realm is also rare, a big sect like Gushan has only a few dozen people.

Not to mention the Taixuan Upper Realm.

The things in the altar are at least in the realm of the Supreme Mystery, if one is not careful, if it gets some opportunity, it may enter the realm of the Saint of the Supreme Purity.

How difficult is such an evil thing to deal with.

"Where did you get it?" Xiao Man couldn't help asking.

Tan Wenzhou told how Lin Wu got the altar.

After listening, Xiao Man felt wrong.

He had heard about the misfortune encountered by Zen Buddhism, but in his last life, he had never heard of someone entrusting the sealed Buddhist altar to Gushan.

Things have become different from previous lives.

He stroked the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and slowly frowned: "Zen sect actually suppresses such things?"

"I am also very puzzled. This matter is not trivial, but it has never been heard of." Tan Wenzhou shook his head, and then thought of some possibility: "But it was something that was suppressed thousands of years ago. There is no news in the current practice world, so it makes sense."

Xiao Man thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know which Buddha is enshrined in the altar?"

Tan Wenzhou: "I can't tell, I can't see."

"The broken seal is only temporarily suppressed, how to deal with it later?"

"I have to ask Peak Lord Yan, this thing has been handed over to him."

There was another silence in the hall.After the silence, I heard Tan Wenzhou ask: "Why is Your Highness interested in this altar?"

Xiao Man instinctively felt that he was probing, raised his eyelids, and looked at the other person seriously: "I am not interested, but curious. I have lived in the Jokhang Temple for nearly ten years. This evil thing naturally wants to know a thing or two."

Immediately, he changed the subject and asked, "Isn't the peak master curious?"

Tan Wenzhou smiled: "Of course I'm curious, otherwise how could I draw the Buddhist altar on paper as soon as I returned to Xingyun Peak?"

"The master of the peak painted a Buddhist altar?" Xiao Man's eyes lit up.

"Your Highness wants to see?"

"Exactly."

Tan Wenzhou got up and waved his feather fan forward: "Please follow me."

Xiao Man followed Tan Wenzhou to the study room in the apse, and saw a painting spread out on the desk.The drawing is quite detailed, even the spell runes on it are clearly visible.

While watching, he talked about the black mist overflowing from the gap of the seal and the uncontrollable evil spirit while talking about the boat.After hearing this, Xiao Man began to look for the connection between this object and his old illness.

He was infected with the disease when he was born, and he became a doctor after a long illness, and he knew the cause of the disease very clearly.

After this detailed description, he seemed to have grasped something, but that thought was fleeting, and he couldn't grasp it in an instant.This feeling is like looking for a rock on the shore of a lake, and you clearly find the one you like, but let it fall into the water without paying attention.

It's a pity that the stone is so small that even a water flower has not grown up.

My heart feels tight.

"I think, I should go to the library to have a look." Xiao Man looked at the paintings on the table and said in a low voice.

Gushan Collection can be described as "giant".He had heard from Yan Wushu that the classics of various schools and sects, as long as they could be transcribed, there were rubbings here. As for those that could not be transcribed and the originals could not be obtained, they were directly created by magic and then preserved.Although the method is shameless, it is very effective at this time.

Tan Wenzhou disagreed: "Your Highness, if you go to the library, it may be difficult to find what you are looking for."

"Huh? Oh..."

Only then did Xiao Man realize that he is just a low-level disciple in the midst of embracing emptiness. With the waist card of a low-level disciple, he can only wander around on the first floor of the library, which is unavoidably discouraged.

Tan Wenzhou also said: "There is a small library on Xingyun Peak, which is composed of the painstaking efforts and wisdom of the elders and disciples of our peak. Although it is not as good as the big library, many books can be found there. If Your Highness Don't mind, you can go there and try."

"But I am not a disciple of Xingyun Peak." Xiao Man hesitated.

"Xing Yunfeng never hides his secrets. If he hides his secrets, how can he accept everything?" Tan Wenzhou waved his sleeves and smiled freely, "I'll take His Highness there."

Xiao Man saluted him earnestly: "So, thank you, Peak Master Tan."

The small study building is within a few seconds, there are no lights in the building, only shining stones are hung in the corners, the light can clearly illuminate the road.But practitioners have excellent eyesight, and such light is not an obstacle to Xiao Man.He followed the guide signs to the destination, ordered dozens of books by name, sat down by the window, and raised his hand to open the window.

A clip of moonlight trickled in like flowing water, illuminating the different shades of lines on the floor and bookshelves.

Although walking in the small library is not a problem, when Xiao Man reads, he still prefers to be in brightly lit places.

The moon outside the window is a full moon, hanging in the east, coating the forest with a layer of silver.Xiao Man sat cross-legged, his back was rarely straightened, he leaned against the wall, his eyes drooped, and his fingers turned over one page after another.

After meditating and concentrating, time always passes quickly.He read one book after another, tiredness welled up in his heart, and secretly thought that this is the end of the day, but before he finished his thoughts, he heard someone talking very rudely outside.

It's not that his hearing is too good, but that he is too familiar with the speaker.

Xiao Man's expression became a little strange, he closed the book and got up, looking towards the source of the sound.

At the foot of Xingyun Peak, the two faced each other across the boundary marker. One of them had a black robe fluttering, silver hair like frost, and a sharp sword mark between his eyebrows. It was Yan Wushu.

Coming to such a place where there is no contact with each other, he has a stinky expression on his face.

Tan Wenzhou wore a crane cloak, shook his feather fan, and asked slowly: "What is Master Yan doing here?"

Yan Wushu said concisely: "Pick me up."

Rong Yuan said that Xiao Man left Xueyi Peak when the sun was setting, and he waited at Luoyue Lake until midnight, but he couldn't wait for Xiao Man to return. Thinking of Xiao Man's attitude towards him during these days, Yan Wushu concluded that Xiao Man was hiding from him.

He hid and hid, he and Fenghuang were both old, and these things could be explained slowly, but Fenghuang actually hid at Xingyun Peak, and there was a faint omen that he would stay there overnight.

This made Yan Wushu angry.

Tan Wenzhou showed doubts: "Who will pick up?"

"Of course it's Phoenix." Yan Wushu snorted coldly, "Don't try to hide him."

"Why did Feng Lord Yan say that?" Tan Wenzhou laughed, "I had a great conversation with His Highness, and we are already friends. How can we say 'Tibetan' when friends walk around each other? Besides, His Highness is in Xiaoshu right now. Reading in the building is very busy."

Yan Wushu raised his eyelids: "Small library?"

"As the name suggests, it is a collection of books. Although it is not comparable to the school library, but looking at the entire Xuantian Continent, I think it can be ranked in the top ten." Tan Wenzhou said, "There is no such collection of books on Xueyi Peak. Isn't it reasonable for His Highness to come to borrow from me?"

"It turns out that Peak Master Tan has no way to teach, and everyone in Xueyi Peak memorizes things in their heads, and there is no need to keep them on paper, waiting for future memories." Yan Wushu pulled his lips and smiled.

Tan Wenzhou pressed down his folding fan, and glanced at him lightly: "The Tao is different, so I won't talk about it."

"Then activate the formation and let me pick them up." Yan Wushu raised his jaw, his eyes showing a dangerous look.

Xing Yunfeng and Xue Yifeng have been fighting against each other for many years, Tan Wenzhou naturally would not follow Yan Wushu's threat, but looked at him with great interest, and asked:

"Did Peak Master Yan offend His Highness?"

Yan Wu was expressionless: "This is not something that Peak Master Tan should be concerned about."

Tan Wenzhou smiled and asked, "Then why did I let you in?"

"It's not that I can't force my way in." Yan Wushu also smiled, raised his hand suddenly, and grabbed a sword from the void.

But it was too late to get out of the sheath!

Sooner or later, a white figure came through the forest and landed beside Tan Wenzhou.

It's Xiao Man.

"Yan Wushu, stop." Xiao Man looked at Yan Wushu with a cold expression.
