It turned out that there was also a starling in this other birdcage, but this starling looked too strange. From the head of the bird, half of the body was as white as a dove, but the half of the body behind the wings was still the same as an ordinary starling. Gray, as if there is some kind of force that makes the color of his body fade, but for some unknown reason, the color fades to half, which is really scary at first glance.

"Hey, has this bird been scalded by boiling water? It's so miserable!"

"But if you get scalded, you should be bald. How can you grow white hair?"

Everyone was discussing, Yue Qing grabbed a handful of beans, first fed them to the snow-white starling, motioned to everyone and said: "Look, everyone, I got this white starling by accident when I was in Yizhou, because I have never seen such a strange fur color, so I raised it. I always feel that I have seen such a starling elsewhere before, but I still can’t remember where it is.”

The starling in the second cage saw that Yue Qing only cared about feeding the white starling, but neglected himself, and was very annoyed. He couldn't wait to jump around in the cage, his black eyes blinked, full of aura, and seemed to be human. .

"However, after the young master was bitten by a poisonous snake, I heard Third Master Ruan say that the poisonous snake is unique to the Tanlang Kingdom, and its antidote is called Ten Sun Grass. I suddenly remembered that I finally knew the origin of this white starling."

"What's the origin, tell me quickly!" Wang Da urged, unable to stand Yue Qing's chattering.

At this time, Yue Qing strolled to the second birdcage to feed the half-white starling.

"Earlier, because of Jinxiulou's business, I had bought goods and went to Tanlang. Tanlang country is no better than the Central Plains. Formation techniques are popular, and formation books are not difficult to find. I bought a few at random and flipped through them on the way. One of them was The origin of this white mynah can be seen in the ancient book titled "Miscellaneous Tan of Strange Things". It turns out that this white mynah is not a rare species, but is formed by feeding common mynahs with ten-day grass, and is called "Brother Xuexin" by the locals. This kind of starling is not only better at learning human language, but also has a much higher flight endurance than ordinary starlings. Because of their cleverness and dexterity, they are good at knowing directions, so they are often used by people to send messages.”

"Why are there so many strange things in the Greedy Wolf Country? It's Brother Xuexin and Ten Sun Grass. They are all things that the Central Plains has never heard of."

This is also the first time Ling Xun has heard of this. He has also been to Tanlang Country, but the language of Tanlang Country is not as good as Yue Qing's, so he won't find local books to read. Naturally, he doesn't know as much as Yue Qing. When I heard him talk about it, I immediately became interested.

"The Central Plains is naturally gone." Yue Qing pretended to be profound, and waited until the bandits became so curious that he said a shocking sentence, "It's just because these novel species are all created by formation techniques. As for the principle of this , I don’t need to use an ax in this class, we have our own experts to guide us.” Said, Yue Qing smiled slightly and cupped his hands in the direction where Mu Jiu was sitting.

Then everyone turned their eyes to Mu Jiu.

Mu Jiu got up to return the salute, and explained: "The array technique originated from the five elements, and everything in the world can be attributed to the five elements' qi, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Any increase or decrease of the five elements' qi will cause changes in the attributes of the species, so there will be formations. The theory of art creation."

"So, the ten-day herb that can detoxify snakes is also made by formation?" Zhong Lishan asked.

"Exactly, if my guess is correct, the ten-day grass should have been an ordinary plant, and the ten-day-grass venomous snake was originally an ordinary poisonous snake, but it was transformed into a new species by the array technique."

"That's right!" Ruan Ji interjected, "I've heard that ten-day grass has been around for more than ten years. Ten-day grass venomous snakes and herbal medicines coexist and restrain each other. Where there are snakes, there must be grass, and where there are grass, there must be snakes." , It is said that it is extremely rare, and many nobles of the greedy wolf country will spend thousands of dollars for these two things, just to let the poisonous snake bite, and then quickly take the antidote, so as to achieve the effect of strengthening the body and preventing all poisons from attacking. "

Zhong Lishan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he showed some eagerness: "Mr. Mu is a formation master, do you know how to make this ten-day grass?"

If they could make their own herbal medicine, how could they be held hostage by Liangzhou?

Mu Jiu shook his head and said: "Creation of formations is the most difficult skill in formations. Even if there are specific guides, many factors must be considered when performing the technique. Any more or less of the energy of the five elements will directly affect the success or failure of the creation. , so the possibility of successfully giving birth to new species is very small."

Just as Zhong Lishan was showing disappointment, Mu Jiu's conversation changed accordingly.

"However, although the possibility is very small, it is not impossible. As long as you are fully prepared, you can try it."

"How can you be well prepared?" Zhong Lishan asked.

Mu Jiu glanced at Zhong Lishan, "Naturally, we need to consult enough relevant classics and have enough mature formation masters."

Zhong Lishan was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and fell into deep thought.

"Is it possible that as long as there are enough books of formations and formation masters, more beneficial things can be created?" At this moment, a young boy's voice came out, and everyone looked back, but they were sitting Fan Cheng at the back.

"You don't have the right to speak here! Why are you here? Have you finished what you were asked to make?" Wu Qing's face changed suddenly, and before Mu Jiu could answer, he reprimanded him.

"Master..." Fan Cheng's dark handsome face suddenly became sluggish.

The bandits in Qingping Mountain haven't seen Fan Cheng for a long time. They only heard that Wu Qing locked him up all day to make some ingenious objects. Today, he doesn't know whether he came here by himself or Wu Qing brought him here. But looking at the situation, it is probably the former.It's pitiful to think about how pitiful it is for a boy and a half to be bored in the house and work every day at the time when he is the most dishonest.

A few bandits who had a good relationship with Fan Cheng were about to say something nice for him, when Wu Qing yelled again: "Go back!"

"Master, I..."

Wu Qing said coldly: "If you still recognize me as a master, don't make a fool of yourself here."

Finally, Fan Cheng had no choice but to stand up and leave silently.

Some people couldn't help sighing, they only felt that Wu Er's hostility was getting heavier and heavier.

The conversation was interrupted by this episode. Although Fan Cheng left, his words made many people in the room ponder.

Since those barbarians in the Greedy Wolf Country can use formation techniques to create new species, wouldn't their Central Plains formation masters be able to create them?

The people who can be invited here by Yue Qing are all dignified figures in Qingping Mountain. Naturally, they are not for nothing, and their minds turn quickly.

Those who have suffered from plowing immediately picture a large buffalo several feet high in their heads. A cow drags a large fence and can plow half an acre of land at a time.Those who are responsible for purchasing and transporting also began to fantasize about using formation techniques to create flying horses and donkeys, so that they would no longer suffer from headaches due to the rough roads.And the bandits who had taken over the task of repairing waterwheels before, longed for the big water-spraying birds that would fly over the crop fields and rain down naturally, so why use waterwheels?

Even Yuan Xi's complexion changed slightly at this time. He originally thought that the formation master was just a sharp weapon kept by the superiors.But they never knew that the formation technique could be used in other places, not only to transform species, but even for production.What is the meaning behind this, I am afraid that only the aristocratic families who have lived in the ruling class all the year round can understand.

However, no matter how other people's emotions surged, it couldn't compare to the horror in Ling Xun's heart at this time.

He suddenly remembered the imagination that Mu Jiu had talked with him, and then he felt awe-inspiring, and asked: "I have banned formation techniques for hundreds of years in the Great Xia, and the surrounding countries have been affected, and they have followed suit. The country has always followed the lead of the Great Xia, and it is even more impossible to study formation techniques. Even in the vast Central Plains, it is rarely heard of. How come it is frequently reported from the greedy wolf country? The level of formation techniques there is really so high Superb?"

I don't know if it's Ling Xun's illusion, but Yue Qing seemed to look in Mu Jiu's direction with a deep look, and then said: "The level of array skills before the Greedy Wolf Kingdom is naturally not so good, but since the marriage 30 years ago, From the beginning, everything changed. Do you know Princess Sheng Yuan?"

Most of the bandits present here are from mud-legged backgrounds, and they don't know much about the affairs in the palace. When Yue Qing asked this question, they all showed a blank expression.

Yuan Xi said, "But the concubine princess who married into Tanlang Country 30 years ago?"

"Exactly." Yue Qing nodded with a smile, "Then, does Mr. Yuan know the background of this Princess Sheng Yuan?"

"I heard that Princess Shengyuan is born of Concubine Lan." Yuan Xi tried his best to search for the information he had heard from the elders in the family. The concubine has long since passed away, so all the past events can only be hearsay.

"Concubine Lan? Are you talking about Concubine Lan during Emperor Xuan's time?" Someone among the bandits suddenly asked.

Yue Qing said: "It's that Concubine Lan."

These bandits in Qingping Mountain, especially the older ones, may still be a little confused when it comes to Princess Sheng Yuan, but if they talk about Emperor Xia Xuan's Concubine Lan, they can casually come up with a few paragraphs about that beloved princess. The legendary anecdote of the concubine.

I heard that Concubine Lan is a peerless beauty with a gentle temperament and extensive knowledge. She was deeply loved by Emperor Xia Xuan.However, the world is so impermanent. Concubine Lan was discovered to be a magician just after she became pregnant.

Now that the world is in chaos, the formation master is highly respected by the powerful, and people still have fear of facing the formation master, not to mention that in those days, when the formation master is mentioned, it is like hearing ghosts, especially this formation master is still in the deep palace. Empress.

One can imagine what will happen to this Concubine Lan in the end.

Emperor Xuan was furious, and threw Concubine Lan into the cold palace, and she never saw her again.

According to rumors from the outside world, Concubine Lan died shortly after she entered the cold palace due to anxiety. As for how she actually died, no one knows.

"You only know one thing, not the other." Yue Qing listened to everyone talking and shook his head slightly, "Actually, Princess Sheng Yuan is not the daughter of Concubine Lan, but a maidservant next to Concubine Lan. .Princess Sheng Yuan married Tanlang far away, and was crowned princess by the Tanlang king, and it was this Tanlang princess who promoted the formation of the Tanlang kingdom in the next few decades. Or more precisely, now Tanlang The most unfathomable formation mage in the country is Princess Tanlang herself."
