Vol 2 Chapter 11: Chongxuan Liushu Chongju Book

"Pure air, go to the exam!"
The white-haired Taoist wrote the results of the inspection on a jade urn, and he no longer said anything to Zhang Yan and left without expression.
Every three months, the upper court will send a teacher to check the progress of the true disciple disciples. If there is a stagnation or slow progress, they will be assessed as the lower exam. For three consecutive times, they will receive half of their reward. Six times, he took the test, stripped his full gift, nine times, he took the position of true biography.
Zhang Yan naturally does not spit out the dry spirit, but just releases a sip of Yunlan Qingqi to check with the other party. This breath can only be called ordinary in terms of fine purity, but it is the most difficult to start this step. The month is clear, and the progress is obvious.
He watched the Taoist drive away. He was about to turn around and go back to Dongfu. He looked up, but saw a man in front of himself, saluting, "I have seen Brother Ning."
"Your aura is clear, condensed but not scattered, obviously you have used your heart." Ning Chongxuan's white clothes are as usual, but the voice is a bit stunned.
He knew that the practice of Qi in Lan Lan's Book of Secrets was not clever, and to practice in this blessed land, he could only hurry to act for a few hours at night. Zhang Yan's qualifications were low, and no one helped him. However, he was able to achieve such a degree in mid-March, which shows that the Tao is harmonious and strong-willed, far exceeding his original expectation.
He is just a disciple with such a good heart, but he can't get in his own vein. It is indeed a bit regrettable.
He paid attention to Zhang Yan and Shen said: "I'm here to tell you about it. Your teacher has already decided to be Zhou Chongju, the governor of Danding Institute. This person has a unique identity. This relative came to say to my master that I will accept you. As a disciple, Master has already responded, and I cannot stop it, but this person is not a family member, so you can rest assured. "
Speaking of this, he sighed slightly, saying, "Unexpected things happen to you, and Brother Qi seems to have no discipleship."
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed, saying: "Listen to my brother, there seems to be no secret in this matter. I wonder why this senior Zhou accepted me as an apprentice?"
Yuning Chongxuan shook his head and said, "You don't know much about this now." He held out his hand and said, "You hand over Ruyi God to you."
Zhang Yan did not hesitate to take out the Shensuo, and Ning Chongxuan reached out his hand a little, and Shensuo returned to his sleeve. He looked at Zhang Yan and said, "I'll send you to see this. People, you remember, no matter how good a foreign object is, it is also a help, not a reliance. As long as you focus on the Tao, you may not have the opportunity to become enlightened. Remember, remember! "
He stepped forward and stretched Zhang Yan's shoulders. The latter felt a blur in front of him, and seemed to turn suddenly in a spiral. When he stood still again, he looked up, but he was already in front of a girder-structured hall. "Dan Ding Yuan" three characters, Ning Chongxuan has nowhere to go.
He was about to step forward, but he couldn't help but look. He stretched out his palm and spread out a look. The Ruyi God shuttle just stayed in his palm!
Zhang Yan put away Shensuo and thought for a moment, she couldn't help understanding Ning Chongxuan's intention.
"Brother Ning will take Ruyi Shensuo first and give it back today. I am afraid that it will cause me a loss of heart. Let me look at what he said at the end, but to tell me how good foreign things are, and what others can do. The gift will also be able to be collected, and I made this move before I came to Dandingyuan. I am afraid that this is a metaphor that alchemy is also a foreign object. Only the practice of mystery is the right path, so I do n’t forget the fundamentals. "
Thinking of this, he solemnly arched his hand towards the place where Ning Chongxuan left. Regardless of Ning Chongxuan's purpose, at least he had some kindness to help him. He also parted ways to stay and be regarded as kind and sincere. also.
I can't ...
Zhang Yan smiled at the corner of his mouth. Whether it was Ning Chongxuan or the one who made a ghost behind you, you were all wrong, and it was very wrong! He shook his hands and robes and strode into the hall.
This main entrance hall is supported by golden wood, which is embraced by two people. It is covered with a lotus base. The arch structure is large. There is a double-necked copper furnace in the hall. A deacon Dao Tong ushered in immediately when he saw this, and Ji Shou said, "What is this brother doing here? But is it for Dan?"
Zhang Yan stood still, and Shen said, "My name is Zhang Yan, and I am here to meet Zhou Zhangyuan."
"You are Uncle Zhang?"
As soon as the Taoist boy stayed, he smiled and smiled and pleased: "Uncle Zhang, please here, please, I will confess to my ancestor." He said that he hurried to the apse.
The other children did not really care much. They usually have eyes above the top. Would n’t disciples of Dan be attentive in the future? It is also polite to have some of the true disciples who came here. At this moment, when I heard Zhang Yan was reporting to the family, it was a spirit. I immediately knew that this was the apprentice who was about to be admitted to the courtyard. Some nimble ones also offered incense sticks, and regretted that they did not stand up earlier, and missed this opportunity.
After about half an hour, the Taoist rushed out and Jishou said, "Uncle Zhang, the ancestor has called you in."
Zhang Yan said, "Let's lead the way."
The Tong Tong turned to his side and said, "Uncle follows me."
Follow Dao Tong across the room, across the three halls, to the foot of a mountain, in front of which is a beautiful lake, a covered bridge extends from the shore, straight into the center of the lake, where there is a three-story boat building Floating, a Taoist was standing by the fence of the attic, and from time to time he dropped some white scattered medicine.
Zhang Yan took a closer look and found that underneath this building was a huge, strangely-shaped fish with wings on both sides, who was greedily devouring those elixir and made a humming sound.
The martyr pointed to the front and said, "The ancestor is on the fish floor. Uncle, let's go."
Zhang Yan nodded, walked across the corridor bridge, and stepped up to the fish floor. Once here, there was no sense of shaking and bumps seen outside. He untied his shirt and climbed up the stairs to the third floor, looking at it, and found that the Taoist had sat on the main hall.
He had black hair and black beard, with five facial features and Zhou Zheng, holding a roll of Danshu in his right hand, half a jug of wine on the sides of the case, and then drinking. When he saw Zhang Yan coming in, he didn't even glance at it. He said blankly, "Who made you up, go down."
Zhang Yan ignored it. He saw the books on both sides of the bookshelf, and went up to fetch a copy.
The Taoist snorted, removed the scroll in his hand, and said coldly: "You don't think you will make an apprentice if you make this move. I accept you just to return an old friend, whether you want it or not, you All apprentices, Zhou Chongju, are determined. "
Zhang Yan smiled, put down her book, turned back, and said, "Second Uncle, I have become your apprentice, wouldn't you be disadvantaged?"
"What do you call me? You ... are you the Zhou family ..."
Zhou Chongju's face changed, and his expression became very wonderful. First he was angry, then confused, then surprised, then excited, and finally stood up suddenly, and whispered, "You follow me." Open a bookshelf beside you and enter a secret room.
Zhang Yan smiled and did not hesitate to follow Zhou Chong into it.
After waiting for the door of the secret room to close, Zhou Chong lifted her eyes and looked at Zhang Yan, saying, "Who are you?"
Zhang Yan first gave a respectful respect, and then said his origins again, and finally said, "I pointed to the senior who went up the mountain that day, and said that an elder from the Zhou family had broken through the door two hundred years ago. He had vowed to destroy the Zhou family and let me go forward. Come and go, he said that if I ca n’t go to the upper house, everything will go down, and if I go to the upper house, I will have the opportunity to see you old.

Ji Zhou Chongju followed by asking, "What else did that senior say?"
衍 Zhang Yan said: "My predecessor said, after seeing you, just ask you if you remember, did you use that dust to beat the old road three times behind you?"
Ji Zhou Chongju heard the words, stood silently in the same place, and when Zhang Yan was puzzled, he saw him laugh and shouted: "Sure enough, really good. The seniors have never lied to me, never lied to me."
"I was conspired by the old husband of the Zhou family and even blasted out of the house. I had the intention to avenge myself, but my predecessors said that my foundation was broken. Even if I passed on my magical powers, there was no hope of life in this life. At most, I was happy for thousands of years. What should I do, my predecessor told him that he will be traveling around the world, looking for someone who has great fortune and potential, and this person will be able to fulfill my wish, so I can wait patiently for more than 200 years, more than 200 years, The old man finally waited! "
He groaned and sighed. He smiled at Zhang Yan gently and said, "Zhang Xiaoyou, here you need to rest assured. No matter who wants to harm you, as long as you don't commit door rules and you can't make mistakes, I can do it. You are well protected. "
Zhang Yan bowed and said, "Thank you Uncle Er."
Zhou Chongju shook his head and waved his hand: "I am no longer a member of the Zhou family, and you and I have to be helped by seniors to get rid of it. You can call me a master in front of an outsider, and you can call him a master when you are not." I took a look at Zhang Yan and thought for a while, and said, "Listen to what you said earlier, you are the only one in your family now?"
"That's good ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Zhou Chongju took a few steps indoors, and finally he sat down and said in a deep voice:" The Zhou family's actions will never be easy. Before I want to come, I am afraid they will have a plan. Then, your parents and your tribe all died, and it was you who lived alone, but also got married with the Zhou family. There must be a ghost in it. Is there really no suspicion in your heart? "
Zhang Yan frowned. To say this, he didn't think about it, but he didn't think much about the predecessor. Besides, he had little practice at that time, even if he knew it? Now that Zhou Chongju mentioned this, he simply followed the other party's words and said, "Yes, there are a lot of suspicious ones, but Zhou's family is strong. Why?"
Zhou Chongju made a table shoot, saying: "Parents' hatred is not shared, you can rest assured that I will give you my full support in the future, and one day I will be able to overturn the Zhou family!"
Zhang Yan immediately said, "It's all up to your brother."
Ji Zhou Chongju nodded with satisfaction, then he seemed to think of something, stood up and pointed to Zhang Yan, and said, "There is something you must guard against,"
Zhang Yangong said, "Brother, please show me."
"You came here for the sake of an old friend. I had to promise to pay him back, but this person did a good job of plotting, and the set-up was all set, and this was never the case. It ’s simple, but I do n’t know what he intends to do for the time being, but I should probably still work on the word alchemy.

Zhou Chongju stepped aside, took a few books on the shelf, took them to Zhang Yan, and urged: "These books are alchemy that I have re-edited in the past 100 years. Not to mention this world is hard to find. In Donghua It is also difficult for Zhou to find a few people to compare with. You take it back and take a look. I don't ask you to what extent you can practice. Knowing a thing or two is a good idea. "
Uh ...
Uh ...
