"Perform using magic?"

Li Yan glanced at Shen SanYou.

Shen SanYou smiled and said, "Just watch, what's the rush?"

"In the past, they wouldn't use these things. Now they are just appetizers."

Sure enough, after Yang Family Troupe man received a round of applause, Wu Family Troupe from the opposite side also sent his own people.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Accompanied by heavy footsteps, a figure walked onto the stage.

This is an existence that can be called a giant.

He is half as tall as an average person, and his figure is somewhat deformed, perhaps due to growth.

He is also covered in muscles, like a mountain monster.

This giant man felt a little stupid, his expression was dull, and he said in a dull voice, "Um, give everyone a Wu Huo Lifting the Tripod."

Another traditional Strength Skill project.

During the Warring States Period, lifting a cauldron for strength training was very popular, especially Qin State, and Wu Huo was a legendary strongman who was highly regarded for lifting a cauldron.

Although this big man is a bit silly and doesn't know how to verbally tease and enliven the atmosphere, he is even more exaggerated than the man just now.

He actually lifted the Flower Calyx Tower bluestone table and invited seven or eight guests to stand on it.

For a moment, there was thunderous applause.

Many of you here are experts. Although this Wu Huo Lifting the Tripod is not as good-looking as the knife player just now, it is a domineering one.

The giant's body shape is already monsterous, and coupled with such strength, he is just like Protector Divine General in the play, which naturally attracts everyone's applause.

Li Yan touched his chin, thoughtfully.

This giant man also used Tong Shen Art.

But unlike his opponent, he had a vague smell of wild beasts, so he must be some kind of wild fairy.

Although the performance was wonderful, Li Yan shook his head slightly, "They are all underhanded methods. Although they can win temporary applause, if used for a long time, they will inevitably damage the body, and they will be riddled with various diseases, and it will be difficult to end well."

No matter Yin Soul or a wild fairy, possession is never a fun thing, let alone using it to stimulate potential.

"That's why it's rare." Shen SanYou yawned, "Even they use this method at critical moments."

Then the two sides fought again.

Among Skillful Technique, one party played Juggling Balls and Swords.

This acrobatics has existed in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad. It involves throwing a large number of colorful balls with hands at the same time, or throwing and catching flying knives.

This time it was not possessed, but it was performed with the help of Divine Ability.

One party relied on his Spiritual Root's powerful control to throw densely packed flying knives and balls into the air at the same time.

The whole hall was filled with knives and balls flying, making everyone dazzled.

At the last moment, the performer's flying knife flew up, hit all the colored balls, and then fell to the ground with a clatter...

The other party is playing Divine Whip Skill.

He should have passed Nose Mystical Power and entered Hidden Strength.

The black cloth was blindfolded, and the divine whip was flying, extinguishing the candles in all directions, but the candles below did not move at all.

Finally, a whip was used to whip the top, and another whip was wrapped around the pillar. The top jumped up, spinning and moving left and right on the rope.

These tops are all made of iron, each weighing ten pounds.

Li Yan could tell that this method between the two sides was not only a competition of acrobatic skills, but also a swordplay.

One is a master of hidden weapons.

The soft whip and top are probably also some kind of strange weapons.

In the last scene, Ancient Magic Trick all used illusions in unison.

One player is Rice Turns into Goldfish. In the pottery basin on the table, grains and grains rotate rapidly with the spell, water splashes all around, and dense goldfish swim around...

Li Yan I can see clearly that this is some kind of deception.

In fact, the pottery basin was filled with water at the beginning, but the extremely fast technique combined with the illusion made people think it was Rice Turns into Goldfish.

And Wu Family Troupe was an eye-opener for him.

Someone lit the brazier, and thick smoke with powdery powder rose into the air. Someone else drove the Yin Soul from behind, rolling the thick smoke around the beams.

On top of the beam, someone unfolded a huge scroll.

Combined with the looming light and shadow effects, it looks like clouds and mist are flying over Flower Calyx Tower, and a heavenly palace appears.

Several nimble boys dressed in white crane clothes jumped up and down, hanging filaments, making smoke under their feet, and entered the heavenly palace like feathers and immortals, and disappeared...

An old man lost his voice and said, "This... this is the long-lost Ascension Platform!"

It is said that Flower Calyx Reflecting Glory Pavilion once performed this technique during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which attracted Ming Emperor Esteemed Consort's continuous praise. Unexpectedly, Wu Family Troupe actually restored this technique.

Even Li Yan couldn't help but applaud.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.

Although he could see that these all used mysterious methods, such a large-scale performance itself required the cooperation of countless people.

In any era, it is the existence of a town.

Once this method came out, there was no suspense at all.

The old man Yang Family Troupe opposite had an ugly face. After folding his fists and admitting defeat, he left Flower Calyx Tower with his apprentice.

To be honest, the abilities of both parties are only between equals.

But the leader of the Wu class was more flexible and willing to work hard and come up with new things, while Yang Family Troupe still used old programs, so he lost.

"How's it going?"

Shen Shen SanYou asked after taking a sip of wine.

Li Yan nodded and smiled, "Senior is right, it is indeed a good show, which is eye-opening for juniors."

Shen SanYou nodded and said to the woman next to him, "Hua Niang, Brother Li and I have a word, don't let anyone disturb you."

"Hmm."

The woman stood up with a calm expression.

She moved the surrounding screen to block the two of them, hung Yellow Talisman and a mahogany pendant on the screen, and pinched Mystical Gestures in her hand.

The surrounding atmosphere changed drastically in an instant, and the noise in the hall also disappeared.

Good guy!

Li Yan was surprised.

This is Mysterious Gate Evasion Technique, also mixed with the Yangzhai Feng Shui layout method.

This woman was actually Xuan Gate People, who was good at formations. She used some method to cover her body, and she actually deceived his nose.

There are so many strange people in the market...

Li Yan sighed in his heart.

Flower Calyx Tower is indeed expensive, but just seeing these things tonight is worth the price.

The aura of this place has been obscured and there is interference from the formation. It is estimated that even if someone uses Divine Ability to explore, they will not be able to hear what they are saying.

Shen SanYou then spoke, "Do you want to inquire about Xuanmen?"

"That's right." Li Yan nodded and answered honestly.

Today I'm hosting a banquet for Shen SanYou. Naturally, I want to know more.

After all, after traveling during this period, what he saw and heard made him realize that what he had come into contact with was probably only the outermost layer of Xuanmen.

Wang Dao Xuan doesn't know, Luo MingZi doesn't tell, we can only find out from Shen SanYou.

Shen SanYou asked, "What is Xuanmen to you?"

Li Yan frowned, "Junior doesn't quite understand."

Shen SanYou pointed downward.

On the stage, the leader of the Wu class was still telling jokes and amusing people.

Shen SanYou took a sip of wine and sneered, "Xuanmen may seem mysterious to outsiders, but to them, it is just a technique used to make a living, no different from ordinary martial arts methods."

"For people like Shang Mountain Dharma Lineage, it is also a technique, a technique to seek their own interests and show the glory of the Dharma lineage!"

"What is it to you?"

Li Yan was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

Shen SanYou continued, "There are always talented people in Xuanmen. People like me are nothing at all."

"In fact, there has always been a division within Xuanmen. The limit that ordinary people can reach is Third Floor."

"Even if you have average qualifications, you can reach Third Floor by starting Divine Ability, practicing diligently for more than ten years, and having no problem with the technique."

"On this Chang'an road, Dao Progress Third Floor, it is easy to settle down and make a living. Serving high-ranking officials and nobles will help you create a better future for future generations Prosperity..."

"So I ask you, what do you want?"

"If you only ask for these, it will be enough now. Knowing too much about some things will actually cause you distress."

Li Yan was silent for a moment, then respectfully raised his hands and said:

"I want to seek help!"

"Ask for the law..."

Shen SanYou said leisurely, "There are many laws."

"For example, Tai Xuan Orthodox Sect, they tied themselves to the fate of Divine Land, protected the four directions, suppressed evil and prevented disasters, so they were enshrined in the imperial court and became the state religion."

"Divine Land is immortal, but Tai Xuan Orthodox Sect will last forever!"

"The Shangshan people also wanted to pursue this method, but they took a wrong path."

"There are still some people who are also seeking the Dharma."

"Like Tai Bai Mountain on the Dipper Mother Palace, what you want is to study the mysteries of the stars and understand the movement of the great road..."

"Like some Dao Physician Sect, they seek to help the world by hanging pots, and great doctors are sincere. There are also some Buddhists who seek to save all sentient beings..."

"This is the law!"

"If you have the Dharma, you will have the Tao in your heart!"

"Life is like morning dew, it disappears in an instant. No matter how powerful the magic is, it can only protect the body. If there is no Tao in the heart, it is like a blind man touching an elephant, and it will never be possible to enter."

Li Yan was silent for a moment, recalling his experiences these days, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Junior, I want to go further."

"Further?"

Shen SanYou sneered, "Eternal life? Become an immortal?"

Li Yan couldn't help but ask, "Is it really just an illusion?"

Shen SanYou picked up the wine glass and took a few sips, looking at Li Yan's eyes full of pity, "As soon as this thought comes out, you will not be comfortable in your life, and countless people will be ruined on this road."

"Becoming an immortal and living forever are just layman's terms. If you can break through the limits of mortals and step onto the fourth floor, you may be able to come into contact with something."

"When the time comes, you can inquire..."

"What is God Ascender!"

In the early morning, the white light shines through the paper window.

The snow that had been blowing outside all night seemed to have stopped, and you could faintly hear the chirping of birds coming from the yard.

Li Yan had woken up long ago, but he lay in bed without even thinking about it, looking at the beams and muttering to himself.

"God Ascender..."

This is the second time he has heard this word.

The first time, it was his cheap master who led him into the Qinling Mountains in a crazy way, just because he didn't want the road to the gods he had found to be buried.

At that time, I thought it was just a description.

Now it seems that it is far from that simple.

And from what Shen SanYou means, becoming a god and becoming a Immortal Elder life seem to be two different things.

Is it to make people become gods?

Just like those ancestors of the Dharma lineage...

Unfortunately, if I asked him again, Shen SanYou refused to say more and just led him to drink like crazy.

Thinking of this, Li Yan stretched out and prepared to get up.

Last night was a bit ridiculous, but he also gained a lot. Not only these secrets, he also knew why Flower Calyx Tower has a high status.

From the outside, people who come here just want a night of physical pleasure, but there is much more to offer inside.

Shen SanYou knows many people at Flower Calyx Tower.

Li Yan only remembers that there were women coming and going around him from time to time, but at most they were hugging each other, and the rest was just relaxing.

They drank freely in the lobby and listened to women singing ancient Tang style rhymes, singing Jiangnan tunes, singing about various aspects of life, and singing about the journey to the east...

Last night was the first time in his life that he got drunk.

He only remembered that he and Shen SanYou staggered out of the house.

After sending him back to the small courtyard of the Wangfu, Shen SanYou hugged the woman and ran to other courtyards to pretend to be a ghost and scare people...

At this moment, Li Yan also knew Shen SanYou's choice.

He no longer wants to seek Dharma, nor does he want to use magic to seek Prosperity. He just wants to indulge in short-term happiness, forget the pain, and end his life...

Li Yan is naturally not like this.

But a night of absurdity also completely relaxed his tense nerves, and he felt a sense of clarity all over his body.

This Brothel Dao Discussion looks like I will come back several times in the future...

At this moment, the door to the yard opened with a bang, and Sha LiFei's voice shouted, "Yan XiaoGe, Master Dao, pack up and leave quickly, Old Sha I have taken on a big job!"
