Li Yan noticed something, "Soul Lamp", what is this? He was about to ask about the soul lamp.
"Junior brother, not far ahead is where we live. I heard that there used to be many houses here, but a hundred years ago, some disciples who became Small Bamboo Peak just wanted to get Small Bamboo Peak's cultivation resources. When they showed their prominence a little, they were no longer willing to do such chores as Small Bamboo Peak. Later, they all surrendered one by one. The other four peaks went to specialize in practicing spiritual insects, formations, and alchemy. Master closed the door in anger and only occasionally admitted disciples. This made the original buildings here seem too many. Master later used his magic power to demolish 70 to 80% of them. Now those places have been used for cultivation Spirit Plant or other purposes, leaving only 20 to 30% of the buildings."
Li Yan Before he could ask, Lin Daqiao had already slowed down and pointed at a large dark house in front of him.
Li Yan Only then did they realize that they had unknowingly arrived in front of a house, and the spiritual energy here was surprisingly rich. The air felt faintly heavy, several times denser than the place they came down the mountain just now.
This house is also all made of black bamboo. It looks like independent small courtyards. Each courtyard is about five or six hundred meters apart. Between these adjacent courtyards are dark green bamboo leaves swaying in the wind. The green light crystals slowly flow and flicker, making it difficult for people outside the courtyard to see anything in the courtyard. It looks so lonely and quiet. In addition, the mist is lingering in some places, covering that space.
Li Yan Being in the secluded bamboo, I couldn't help but feel relaxed and happy, as if my heart was gently swaying with the bamboo waves.
"Junior brother, there are more than fifty empty courtyards here. You can choose any one, and you will live in that courtyard alone from now on." At this time, Lin Daqiao's words broke the tranquility here, allowing Li Yan to calm down.
"Oh, okay, okay, then it's Brother Lao Seventh." Li Yan replied quickly.
So the two of them stopped talking and started walking through the bamboo forest, opening a courtyard door from time to time and going in to take a look.
After about a cup of tea, Li Yan and Lin Daqiao stood in a courtyard again. This is a relatively remote place in the entire group of houses. It is on the northwest side of the group of houses. Although each yard is about a mile apart, and more The ink bamboo forest in the middle prevented them from seeing each other, but Li Fang still chose this relatively remote courtyard. There was no one else living here, front, rear, or left. The right side was the edge of the group of houses. Outside the courtyard was the endless sea of ink bamboo. He liked the secludedness here.
Li Yan looked around at everything in the courtyard and felt very satisfied. He decided that he would live here. He thought that when he made this decision, the seventh senior brother would have to say something because he chose this place too far. However, Lin Daqiao did not show any surprise, which surprised him. Later, he learned that most of the immortal cultivators did not like being too close to others. The other peaks only had too many disciples, and only the disciples above Foundation Establishment Realm had the right to live in such a single-door courtyard. The remaining Qi Condensation Stage disciples could only live in a single room adjacent to the contiguous building complex. This was also the obvious difference between Small Bamboo Peak and other disciples.
</di>
However, a hundred years ago, Small Bamboo Peak also had large complexes of buildings dedicated to Qi Condensation Stage disciples. These courtyards were only reserved for monks above Foundation Establishment Realm. However, Master Wei Dafong later demolished all those buildings, leaving only dozens of such courtyards.
The courtyard Li Yan chose covers an area of about 40 feet, which is very large. The courtyard walls are also made of densely intertwined bamboo fences more than 20 feet high. The houses are also made of black bamboo, with a total of five rooms. The yard is empty and quiet, with only a stone table and four stone benches in the middle. The sky above is stretched out from the courtyard. The bamboo leaves that came here were half-covered and half-exposed, and a small garden was opened in the southwest corner of the courtyard wall. There were many blue flowers that Li Yan didn't recognize. The flowers were about one foot tall, with slender green leaves. The flowers were emitting a clear orchid fragrance, adding a quiet orchid smell to the air here.
Li Yan was looking at the bamboo courtyard. Lin Daqiao stretched out his hand to reach for Li Yan's Storage Pouch. He patted it, and a white light flashed past. There was something in his hand, which was the waist badge that looked like gold but not gold, and was like iron but not iron. He could see him chanting the spell., flicking the card in his hand, a black light emitted from the card, and it fell on the bamboo fence wall in a flash. Suddenly, a mist rose up on the bamboo fence. The mist continued to surge and spread, but it only formed an encirclement along the fence wall, without any penetration into the courtyard. In a short time, the bamboo courtyard was enveloped.
Li Yan stared at this scene blankly. He didn't know what the seventh senior brother was doing.
"Okay, you just need to identify the owner of this waist card with blood." Looking at Li Yan's stunned look, Lin Daqiao patted him on the shoulder.
"Each bamboo courtyard is protected by a set of formations. This waist card is engraved with the magic that controls this formation. You can control this set of protection formations as long as you shed blood on this waist card to identify its owner. However, one waist card can only activate one set of formations. For example, although the waist card on my body also has the magic to control this bamboo courtyard, it can only control the set of formations it inspires, which is the bamboo courtyard where I live.
The waist tag also has other uses. It is also engraved with the entry identification mark of the entire sect Sect Protection Array. Otherwise, if you break in rashly, the formation will launch an attack on its own. Our Sect Protection Array is not like other sects who only use psychedelics, protection, and direct attacks. The hidden unknown poisonous insects, poisonous gas, and poisonous mist are the most terrifying. Even the ancestor of the Nascent Soul Realm is also afraid of it. "Speaking of this, Lin Daqiao seemed to remember something, and his originally dark skin turned pale.
"Ahem, in short, you have to keep this waist card. If you lose it and go to the Affairs Hall to replace it, you will be punished. Well, our Bamboo Garden Protection Formation is an ordinary magic formation. It prevents others from rashly breaking in during daily practice. It serves as an early warning and protection. This protection is almost the same. It can withstand a full blow from Master Foundation Establishment Early Stage. This is also extremely powerful. A full blow from Master Foundation Establishment Early Stage would probably almost destroy a small mortal town, but there is no Foundation Establishment in this sect.
It is completely enough for experts to casually attack other people's protective formations.
Well, if junior brother feels that it is not enough in the future, you can go to Sixth Senior Sister or the uncles and uncles of Four Symbols Peak and ask them to redo a set of formations for you. It will be much better than this. "
Lin Daqiao briefly introduced the protective formation and the sect's protective formation. Li Yan Finally heard him mention Sixth Senior Sister, which reminded him of the tall, short-haired, cold beauty with wheat-colored skin. He couldn't help but ask, "Sixth Senior Sister also knows the formation?"
Lin Daqiao patted Li Fang on the shoulder again, which made Li Yan speechless. He muttered in his mind, "We just met, okay? Why do you keep patting him so often?"
"Junior brother, our Small Bamboo Peak is a grocery store. Although we are doing logistical chores, the skills we have learned are also blooming. The sixth senior sister is not only good at formations, she is also strong in individual combat. Even the second senior brother is not willing to fight with her too much, Four Symbols Peak's master and uncle wanted her to go there more than once, but she didn't want to be like those peaks and only study one method. She was afraid that if she went to Four Symbols Peak, other techniques would be delayed, even though the formations were unpredictable against the enemy."
"A strong soldier in combat alone? The second senior brother is the one who is as strong as a warrior." Li Yan Although he thought of the short-haired beauty's explosive figure under the robe, he still couldn't imagine the scene of her competing with the bear-like person of the second senior brother.
"Junior brother, let's go in. There are still many things I want to tell you." Lin Daqiao didn't want to say more. He walked towards the bamboo huts and pointed at them as he walked.
"These houses are generally enough for you. They are divided into lounges, practice rooms, feeding rooms, alchemy rooms, and living rooms. Unless you have more hobbies, you need to open a bamboo house in this yard by yourself. Building a house is not difficult. You can learn it in a long time, but you need to pay attention to the materials used to build the house.
Well, although there are handymen who come to clean and take care of Spirit Plant in an uninhabited courtyard like yours, they don't come often. You see there is still some dust. Let's wait for my senior brother to clean it up for you. " Lin Daqiao was talking to himself. Seeing that the bamboo courtyard was not very clean, he waved his sleeves and robes forward, and the doors of several houses opened at the same time. Then he quickly made a mark on his chest with his hands, and whispered "Go", and a white light flashed out. The horse turned into several wet whirlwinds and swept towards several rooms and the stone tables and benches in the courtyard respectively. His movements were light and casual, and there was a slight smell of dust. A soft "Woo" sound suddenly sounded in the courtyard, and it disappeared after a few breaths.
"Okay, haha" Lin Daqiao clapped his hands and smiled, then walked towards one of the houses.
Li Yan My eyes lit up when I looked at the stone tables and benches in the courtyard. There was only a little floating dust on them, and they were almost shiny after being scrubbed.
"This is magic. It's not just for flying and killing people." Li Yan became even more curious about magic. When he turned around, Lin Daqiao had already stepped into the middle.
</di>
In that house, he quickly followed.
This is a room about five or six feet wide. It is very spacious. It has a bamboo table with a tea set on it and several tall bamboo chairs. The four walls are green and white without any decorations. Two large bamboo windows open to the outside. It is extremely simple.
"This is the living room. The layout of the other rooms is simple. They are basically beds, futons and the like. We monks don't have high requirements for external things, especially the master who doesn't like those luxurious things, haha." Lin Daqiao pulled up a chair and sat down.
At the same time, in a room in another bamboo courtyard one to twenty miles away from this bamboo forest, a pair of young men and women were talking, "This new disciple of yours is not honest. He is very careful in his work. He left most of the killing of that military advisor to that marshal and his junior brother. I asked a few questions on purpose, and I obviously answered them after thinking about it."
The beautiful woman in white palace clothes looked at the fat young man, her big eyes flickering as she spoke.
This young man and woman are the master and mistress that Li Yan just worshiped.
"Oh, yes, judging from the investigation results of Spirit Insect Peak's disciples and the investigation of his origins from the subordinate sects, it should be that he set up the ambush, including the last blow, which was also the killer. But today he did not tell the truth. Now, I have replaced all of this with the actions of others. I thought about it, and it may be related to what he has experienced, and he already has distrust and wariness of others." Wei Zhongran shook his head helplessly.
"So how much of what he said about cultivation is true? How much of it is false? Is there something hidden or is it all a lie?" The woman blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at her husband.
"It is estimated that there will be reservations, and most of them are even fake, but is there a difference? It has been hundreds of millions of years, and the sect has been studying it for so long generation after generation. Isn't it still impossible to know the cause of the formation of this physique? If you use Soul-Seeking Technique, you can get the information from his brain, but this is not The result I want is that everyone has his or her own chance. He is a mortal boy who fought for his own life. Why should he be taken away by others? So I have to accept him, otherwise his end may be miserable. When he feels attached to the sect in the future, I think he will tell it."
Having said this, a wry smile appeared on his lips again. "Sister, maybe I'm not suitable for cultivating immortality. My master gave me this great Small Bamboo Peak. In the end, he was managed like this. Seeing what this child went through, I felt compassion. Cultivating immortality, cultivating immortality. I really can't take that step to cut off all human love. Maybe I won't be able to Nascent Soul Formation in this life."
A pair of white catkins slowly stretched out and held the fat hand, "You are like this is why I like you, because you are affectionate and you have your own bottom line." The woman's eyes flashed with tenderness, and the next moment she snorted slightly, just like a playful girl.
"Hmph, besides, you weren't a good person back then. You were just good at people and things. You were like you back then." The woman put her chin on her other hand as if she was lost in memories.
