Under Crane Releasing Peak, Liu Xiaolou handed over a list. Steward Zhao looked at the seven materials displayed on the list for a moment, with a slightly troubled look on his face. "This kind of Profound Bird Stone... is not easy to find."
Liu Xiaolou has no explanation and cannot answer. This is the third batch of Spiritual Material orders listed by Tang Song. Whether the Zhao family can get it together has nothing to do with them. If they really can't get it together, of course they should talk to Tang Song.
Steward Zhao also knew that he couldn't talk to him, so he could only sigh and said, "Please tell Master Tang that we will try our best."
Liu Xiaolou turned around and left. Not long after walking, he turned around and looked back at the flying crane Third Peak, which was wrapped with jade belts and cascading waterfalls. He couldn't help but feel fascinated: It would be great if he could go to the top of the mountain to see it.
Returning to Banshanping, he said to Tang Song, "The Zhao family promised to do their best to collect these materials."
Tang Song looked away from the "Five Talismans", frowned and asked, "Try your best?"
Liu Xiaolou said, "It seems that Profound Bird Stone is more difficult to find."
Tang Song closed the "Five Talisman", stood up and left. "This is not a matter of trying your best... I'm going to see Elder Zhao. There may be Formation Master going up the mountain today. You can test it as appropriate."
Liu Xiaolou was stunned. "How can I compare with others with my shallow moral skills?"
Tang Song said, "If you are Foundation Establishment or above, you don't need to take the test. If you are Foundation Establishment or below, you can just set the questions as you like."
Liu Xiaolou secretly complained, wondering what he was asking for? Suddenly I caught a glimpse of the "Five Talismans" left by Tang Song. I looked in the direction of Tang Song and saw his figure disappearing down the hillside. I felt like I had found a treasure and quickly opened it and read it.
If it doesn't work, just look for questions from the book.
He heard Qingzhu mention this formation book several times. When Qingzhu was explaining "Golden Bamboo Array Essentials", he would occasionally explain it with the meaning of the scriptures in "Five Talismans". He knew that this formation book was profound and profound, but when he wanted to ask for it, Qingzhu said that there were very few of this formation book in the world, not even her, so it was "abandoned" to this day.
But now that I had the opportunity, I naturally picked up "Five Talismans" without hesitation and quickly made up for the lessons.
"Five Talisman" has more than 1,800 words, fifteen or six pages, all in small regular script, and there are some annotations between the lines. Judging from the handwriting, it should be Tang Song's own experience in writing. These densely packed words are extremely obscure, like the words of a tiger and a wolf, which makes Liu Xiaolou's scalp numb.
It took a whole day to finish watching Liu Xiaolou. Fortunately, he refined the formation plate twice before and after, especially after practicing the formation for three months day and night with Qingzhu, so he had a certain foundation. Combined with Tang Song's annotations, he looked at it vaguely, but he seemed to understand it.
The benefit of practicing spiritual practice is that it refreshes the mind and improves memory. Since he couldn't understand, he started to memorize it by rote. It took him two hours, but he could only memorize it roughly.
How can I compare with others when I am not even a dabbler at it? Therefore, he was very much looking forward to Tang Song coming back quickly after meeting Elder Zhao, so as not to make a fool of himself.
But that's how things are in the world, whatever you're afraid of comes, in the evening, Tang Song didn't come back, but the steward at the foot of the mountain brought up an applicant Formation Master.
This Formation Master looks to be in his thirties. He is also the descendant of Liu Xiaolou. His name is Liu Daoran. He claims to be a monk in Bazhong, and he is the same as Tang Song. He is a fellow villager, but he was not recommended by the Aristocratic Clan, a high-ranking sect. He belongs to a poor family. He heard that Tang Song was in charge of the refining formation, so Qianli came all the way to apply. When asked, his cultivation level was at Qi Refining Layer 8, and he claimed to have been studying formations for thirteen years.
Liu Xiaolou delayed the time very politely. "Your Majesty has just gone up the mountain. I must be hungry. Let's have some food first and take a short rest. Then we will decide whether..."
Liu Daoran shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness. It's okay. I've been studying the self-questioning formation for many years. I can't say that I know everything. It's usually not a problem for me. You can come up with questions at a single step. I've decided on this spiritual stone!"
Seeing how confident he was, Liu Xiaolou was shocked. Liu Xiaolou smiled calmly on his face, but felt extremely weak in his heart. He coughed dryly, and after much deliberation, he simply selected the content at the end of "Five Talismans" and chose one to pose the question, "Heaven of the Vermilion Elixir Three Energies, how is its condition?"
Liu Daoran was startled. "Heaven of the Vermilion Elixir Three Energies?"
Please visit the latest address Liu Xiaolou nodded. "Yes, please solve it."
Liu Daoran was stunned for a long time, his face gradually turned red, and he asked, "Do you know what the explanation is?"
Liu Xiaolou memorized the annotation of Tang Song: "The smoke is like the bud of the crimson clouds in the white sun, and its light is like the reflection of the mysterious jade in the flowing abyss. Below is the red pool of red spring, above is the Zhu Palace of Immortality, and in the room is Great Elixir Jade Maiden. It lives above the three mountains of the sun."
Liu Xiaolou roughly understood the literal meaning of these annotations, but he didn't know how to achieve them in the formation and what their effects were. He didn't even know what the so-called "Great Elixir Jade Maiden" meant. After reciting it, he actually had some expectations, hoping that Liu Daoran would follow the words and explain them to him.
It's a pity that Liu Daoran did not explain, but frowned and thought hard. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly handed over his hand. "Farewell!"
Liu Xiaolou was stunned. "Friend Liu Dao..."
Liu Daoran looked ashamed. "I have never seen an expert before. My eyes are higher than the top, just like a frog in a well. I am not ashamed to speak loudly and make you laugh. Fang Family. You should practice hard after you come down from the mountain and come back for advice after you have made some progress."
Liu Xiaolou I was unsure before, and I was equally unsure after I stumped people. I thought to myself that I didn't just randomly come up with the questions, right?
"Fellow Daoist, wait a minute! I have one more question here. I'll think about it after I answer it... In the sky disk, if humans are used to solve the formation, how can we solve it?"
This is the content in "Golden Bamboo Array Essentials". If you still can't answer it, then you didn't make up the question randomly.
This time Liu Daoran answered, "The head is round like the sky, the feet are like the earth, the hair is the stars, the eyes are the sun and the moon, the eyebrows are the Big Dipper, the ears are the grain, the nose is the mountains, the mouth is the rivers, the teeth are the jade, and the limbs are the four seasons. The five internal organs are the five elements, the top is the five stars, the bottom is the five mountains, rises to the five clouds, and turns into the five dragons. This is the same as the formation, the head and tail, the inside and outside must be considered."
This answer is close to what Qingzhu taught that day. Although the words are different and the sentences are often changed, the general idea is the same. Qingzhu once said that once you understand this principle and change it, you can develop a magic circle.
Liu Daoran's answer shows that he already understands the truth. It depends on whether he understands the changes, but that was when he actually started refining the array. Now, what he needs to decide is whether to let him stay?
Liu Xiaolou gritted his teeth and decided to stay. After all, there were very few people who dared to apply for the job in such a big way with only a little knowledge of it. Liu Daoran was probably overweight.
"Well, it's not easy to answer this question. You can stay."
"Then... thank you..."
Liu Daoran also knew that he had spoken too much before, and the slap in the face was really ugly, but he Qianli came all the way for a commission, and even if he broke his promise and got fat, he could only gain weight first.
"Fellow Daoist can settle at Zhidun Ridge. The main formation over there has not yet arrived, so we have to wait for a few days. While waiting, fellow Daoist can memorize this list first. If possible, you can also deal with Spiritual Material on the list first."
Liu Daoran lost his arrogance and seemed somewhat restrained in front of Liu Xiaolou. He nodded in agreement and asked again, "I wonder how to get to Zhidun Ridge?"
Liu Xiaolou said, "Let's go, I will take you there right now."
"How dare you..." Liu Daoran was a little frightened and asked cautiously, "How dare you ask, your Majesty?"
Liu Xiaolou smiled and said, "You and I are the same family, my surname is Liu, Liu Xiaolou, I am Master Tang's... assistant... um..."
Liu Daoran suddenly became awe-inspiring. "Disrespect! Disrespect!"
