Chapter 256 Get what you want(1/2)
Zhou Yan looked at Shi Wu who was respectfully bowing, and saw that the outside of the Zangshu Pavilion had turned into a vast white area. He asked, "Did you do it?"
"Ah?" Shi Wu didn't know what Zhou Yan was referring to, so he asked, "What is Uncle Zhou talking about?"
Seeing that Shi Wu had no spiritual energy, Zhou Yan secretly scolded him for being deduced by ancient books and pushed his head out of the way. How could this kid turn the Tibetan Pavilion, which is full of formations, into a snowy land?
Zhou Yan said to Shi Wu: "It was the old immortal who sent you here."
Shi Wu felt that it was Uncle Yuan who sent him here, so he said, "Yes."
Zhou Yan grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, rubbed it in his hands and found that it was just ordinary snow water. Zhou Yan frowned and said, "Is it real snow?"
Seeing Zhou Yan's strange behavior, Shi Wu said, "Uncle Zhou, this snow has been falling for a while. I have built two snowmen in the old fairy."
Zhou Yan was not in the mood to talk about snowman with Shi Wu. He pulled Shi Wu into the teleportation array of Gongyuefeng and said: "The disciples of Qi Condensation Period and Foundation Establishment Period can only go to the Tibetan Art Pavilion at the foot of the mountain to select martial arts. I will take you down now, and I have already greeted you. As long as you say you are Shi Wu, the disciples there will give you the best Qi Condensation Period technique."
Shi Wu, who was going down in the teleportation array, thought he had heard it wrong, so he quickly confirmed: "Is it enough to just report my name?"
Zhou Yan knew that this kid was guarding against him, so he directly took out Zhao Yin's speech and said, "You are the eldest disciple of Yiyue Peak announced by Senior Brother Gongsun himself. That is our hope for tomorrow for the Moon Worship Palace, so it is also appropriate to give you the best Qi Condensation Period technique. That technique is the most expensive in the Qi Condensation Period. If you are an ordinary Moon Worship Palace disciple, you need 500 sect contribution points to exchange."
When Shi Wu heard that Zhou Yan was not skeptical about him for Gongsun Ye's sake, he hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Zhou."
After Zhou Yan nodded, he teleported to the hiding pavilion halfway up the mountain. At this time, it was already a vast white area.
Elder Wang, who was in charge of this Tibetan art pavilion, saw that it was Zhou Yan's place, immediately came out to greet him and said, "See the head of the board."
Zhou Yan said: "Junior Brother Wang, can Senior Brother Gongsun send someone here?"
"I've been here, but you were still deducing ancient books at that time. Junior Brother Zhang and the others went to the palace master's hall on your behalf." Seeing that Zhou Yan was worried about the strange phenomenon of Gongyuefeng, Elder Wang advised, "Senior Brother Zhou, don't be anxious. Although this snow fell strangely, the ones that fell into Gongyuefengfeng were all ordinary white snow, so there should be no problem."
Zhou Yan nodded and teleported down again. However, Elder Wang looked at the strange boy next to Zhou Yan and really didn't remember when the boy went up.
Shi Wu didn't even have the chance to bow to the elder Wang, so Zhou Yan took him down again.
The four disciples guarding the Zangshu Pavilion at the foot of the mountain saw Zhou Yan coming and hurriedly saluted him and said, "See Master!"
Zhou Yan asked, "Where is Li Mu?"
A disciple replied: "The eldest brother is talking to Zhuge in the Tibetan Buddhist Pavilion."
At this time, Li Mu heard the movement outside and immediately came out and said, "See Master."
Zhou Yan was in a hurry and said to Li Mu: "Mu'er, this son is Shi Wu, the eldest disciple of Yiyue Peak's inner sect. Please help me receive my teacher, and I want to go to the Palace Master's Hall."
Li Mu hurriedly bowed and said, "Disciple obeys the order."
After Zhou Yan finished his order, he quickly came to the exit of the magic circle at the foot of the mountain and then flew away.
Shi Wu had no choice but to bow to Zhou Yan's body, "Uncle Zhou walked slowly."
When Li Mu heard Shi Wu calling Zhou Yan as his uncle, wouldn't he call Shi Wu, a young man who was only eleven or 2 years old, be his senior brother? Li Mu's face looked a little ugly, and he tried to keep a smile and said, "Shi Master...Senior Brother, please."
Shi Wu didn't know Li Mu's real age, but when he saw the appearance of the middle-aged man on the other side, he thought that he was a senior disciple of the inner sect of Gongyuefeng, so he hurriedly refused: "Senior Brother Li, don't be so polite, just call me Xiao Wu or Junior Brother Shi."
Li Mu then calmly got up and said, "Xiao Wu, please, I will take you to collect the Qi Condensation Period exercises. You can also choose two Qi Condensation Period magic tricks."
Seeing that the disciples outside showed envious expressions, Shi Wu said happily: "I heard that I don't need the contribution value of the sect to choose martial arts and magic?"
Li Mu paused and said, "That martial art does not require you to contribute to the sect, but magic is required. However, the magic of the Qi Condensation Period is generally very cheap, and the two books are only a few dozen contributions. You are the eldest disciple of Yiyue Peak, and you only need to pay it back within three years."
When Shi Wu thought this was OK, he asked in addition: "How do you get the contribution value of this sect?"
Li Mu said: "You can obtain it by completing the tasks released in the Moon Worship Palace. For example, the most valuable task in the near future is to go to the Mist Forest to capture the triangular red-headed python. This python is full of treasures, and three gray horns and python galls on its head can be used as pills. The python skin can be found to make defensive inner armor, and even the body of python flesh is a spiritual food that can be nourished."
Shi Wu said excitedly: "How much contribution can you make if you catch one?"
Li Mu said: "At least three thousand."
"So many, can Senior Brother Li take me to catch one if you have time? I just need to divide a little contribution value. As for the triangular red-headed python, it will be the Senior Brother Li." Shi Wu could not help but beg Li Mu with his heart when he heard that he could get the contribution value of three thousand sects.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shi Wu finished speaking, the escort disciples outside the Tibetan Buddhist scripture pavilion laughed out loud. They did not continue to laugh after Li Mu coughed.
Shi Wu didn't know where he said it wrong, so he looked at Li Mu who was holding back his smile.
Li Mu cleared his throat again and said, "Junior Brother Shi, this triangular red-headed python is not that easy to catch. The Mist Forest is 60,000 miles west of my Moon Worshiping Palace. It is a place where various monsters and spirits gather. Even I have to find some friends with similar strength in the sect to barely catch one. The ordinary triangular red-headed python is brown all over, the snake's head is red, and the three tentacles on the head are gray, and there is a cultivation level in the late stage of foundation building. If we encounter those three tentacles that are red or black, we can only escape when we look at the wind. Because they have condensed snake pills and have the cultivation level of the cultivator's Golden Pill stage. Moreover, this is a monster that is active outside the Mist Forest. It is said that there are monsters that have turned into human form in the center of the Mist Forest, and we must not get close to it!"
Shi Wu stood there in a daze. He was not scared, but he understood. What Li Mu said before was purely to make him envious, and then he made it clear from behind that he could only listen now.
Li Mu saw Shi Wu as if he was stupid and smiled kindly: "Junior Brother Shi, don't be discouraged. You are just in your infancy. The sect will still issue some simple tasks, such as going to each peak to help pick mountain spring water, or help pick and sort the herbs needed. Although these tasks have very few sect contributions, the sect contributions are simple and easy to get. After a year or two, you should be able to pay off the sect contributions of a magic book."
Shi Wu looked at Li Mu who looked kind and laughed, "Thank you for your proposal. I will work hard to accumulate contributions to the sect when I have time. By the way, I heard that there is a spiritual root mirror in the Tibetan art gallery, and you can know your spiritual root attributes by looking at it. Please take me over and take a photo first, so it's easy to choose the magic method."
Thinking that was the case, Li Mu took Shi Wuxian into the hall of the Tibetan Buddhist Pavilion.
When he first entered the Zangshu Pavilion, Shi Wu saw that there were three layers above, middle and lower, each layer was embedded in the rock wall in a wraparound shape. Moreover, the outside of each layer seemed to be covered with clouds and mist, and it was impossible to see the situation inside. The most peculiar thing was that there were no steps on the second and third floors. Shi Wu thought that this was not going to fly up. Then he happened to see a middle-aged man wearing disciple's costume flying down from the railing of the second floor, and he also took a piece of jade slip in his hand. After the middle-aged man landed, he took out a jade token and handed it to a disciple of Yuefeng next to the entrance of the Zangshu Pavilion. The disciple sealed the jade token on the jasper platform in front of him and gave it to the middle-aged man again. After the middle-aged man put it away, he bowed to Li Mu and left.
After Li Mu returned the gift, he led Shi Wu over.
The disciple who was sorting out the things on the Jade Platform saw that it was Li Mu coming and said respectfully: "Hello, Senior Brother."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Junior Brother Zhuge, this is Shi Wu, the eldest disciple of Yiyue Peak. He wants to test the spiritual root attributes first."
Shi Wu hurriedly bowed and said, "It's a blessing for Senior Brother Zhuge."
The disciple refused: "Senior Brother Shi can just call me Zhuge Yang or Zhuge Junior Brother."
Shi Wu didn't care about these titles. He just wanted to know what kind of spiritual root he was now. He led him to the three-foot silver mirror in the center of the Zangshu Pavilion. Shi Wu found that in addition to the light on the surrounding stone walls, this silver mirror was the main light source in the Zangshu Pavilion.
Zhuge Yang said: "Senior Brother Shi, just put your hand on the spiritual root mirror. Gold represents the golden spiritual root, green represents the wood spiritual root, blue represents the water spiritual root, red represents the fire spiritual root, and yellow represents the earth spiritual root."
Shi Wu asked, "What if I were the Feng Ling Root or the Lei Ling Root?"
Zhuge Yang was stunned when he heard this and said, "Senior Brother Shi, my junior brother has been here for almost forty years and has never seen these two spiritual roots. However, according to the records in the book, the wind spirit root is a colorless image, which will turn the spiritual root mirror into transparency, while the thunder spirit root is purple. Brother Shi put his hand on and try it out."
Shi Wu remembered that Uncle Yuan said that he had no water spirit roots, so it would definitely not be blue. He now felt like he was waiting for the dice cup to open in the gambling house. He was afraid to look at it and put his hand on the spiritual root mirror.
Li Mu and Zhuge Yang were actually very curious about what spiritual root the great disciple of Yiyue Peak who drank the Creation Soup.
But Shi Wu's palm just touched the spiritual root mirror gently. The spiritual root mirror suddenly changed into four colors of red, blue, and golden, and then began to expand and twist, and exploded with a bang. The huge explosion shocked the disciples who were selecting magic books in the Tibetan Buddhist scripture Pavilion. They put down their magic books and looked at the hall.
Shi Wu was frightened by the loud noise and shook back. Fortunately, the exploded lenses were flying by his side. But this scared Shi Wu very much, and he could feel his heart thumping. Shi Wu opened his eyes and asked Li Mu, "Senior Brother Li, have you not changed the magic weapon for Yuefeng for a long time?"
Li Mu also felt that it must be because the magic weapon has been used for too long and has not been replaced. How could anyone have four kinds of red, blue and golden spiritual roots on their body, and can still burst out the spiritual root mirror.
Zhuge Yang said calmly: "Senior Brother Shi is sorry, Junior Brother will go to Luoyue Peak to get another spiritual root mirror back."
Shi Wu quickly waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I came here today to use the Qi Condensation Period exercises. I heard that this exercise is very powerful and should be in line with any kind of spiritual root. Take me over quickly, and I will take it away."
Li Mu looked at Shi Wu's frightened look, and while he was despised, he was sure that the spiritual root mirror was broken. He said to Zhuge Yang: "Junior Brother Zhuge, since Junior Brother Shi said it's okay, then you can give him the ancient martial arts that Master asked. By the way, he would take him to choose two Qi Condensation Strategy, and I will help him pay the contribution value of the sect, just treat it as my behalf to pay Yue Feng for the frightened Junior Brother Shi."
After hearing what Li Mu said, Shi Wu felt that Gong Yuefeng should really compensate him, so he said politely: "Thank you, Senior Brother Li."
Li Mu said generously: "It should be."
After Shi Wu bowed to Li Mu, he didn't even let Zhuge Yang clean up the broken lenses on the ground, so he took him to the first floor of the Tibetan Buddhist Pavilion.
Li Mu was waiting quietly beside the Jade Platform, so he would naturally not clean up the disciples of the inner sect of Yuefeng.
What they did not notice was that some of the fragments of the spiritual root mirror scattered on the ground had evaporated into steam, some were frozen into ice, some were as hard as rocks, some turned into a ball of gold powder, and several of them seemed to be covered with a layer of brighter film on the surface.
After Zhuge Yang and Shi Wu arrived at the first floor of the Tibetan Buddhist Pavilion, there was no light source of the spiritual root mirror outside, and it looked a little dark. Zhuge Yang took out a spirit stone and walked forward, and first took the ancient Qi Condensation Period and handed it to Shi Wu: "Senior Brother Shi, this is the ancient martial arts that Master asked me to give you. You can copy it with the jade slip."
Shi Wu took the calligraphy that was blurred even with his name and said, "What is the rubbing of the jade slip?"
Zhuge Yang then realized that Shi Wu didn't even have spiritual energy, so why did he let him use a jade slip to copy it? Even if he helped him copy it, he couldn't open it.
Seeing Zhuge Yang in a dilemma, Shi Wu suggested: "Can Junior Brother Zhuge keep this ancient book here? Then I will take the ancient book back to read it. I will return it after I learn to use jade slips to copy it. I promise not to show it to others. There are only two people on Yiyue Peak, Lao Xianchang."
Zhuge Yang said with a sad face: "Senior Brother Shi, our Tibetan Stories Pavilion has never had such an example. And this ancient book is a treasure revised by Master."
Shi Wu looked at the dilapidated ancient book and promised: "Don't worry, I will put it in the seabag given to me by Gongsun Palace Master, and I will definitely take care of it carefully!"
Seeing Shi Wu's sincere attitude, Zhuge Yang thought that since this was what Zhou Yan ordered to Shi Wu, he agreed and said, "Senior Brother Shi must pay attention every time he reads it."
Seeing that the other party agreed, Shi Wu quickly agreed and said, "It's a must."
After Zhuge Yang used a jade slip to copy the ancient book, he placed the jade slip in the ancient book, and then reluctantly read the ancient book of the stone martial general in Nahaisan. He stayed in the Zangshu Pavilion for so long and had a special feeling for every martial arts book here. Although he had never read that ancient book, the ancient books in the Zangshu Pavilion had a sacred status in his heart, as if his beliefs were his.
Seeing Zhuge Yang's a little disappointed look, Shi Wu patted his shoulder and said, "I will not let everyone down."
Zhuge Yang smiled wryly and said, "Senior Brother Shi, this technique is actually a bit difficult, and Senior Brother will know it in the future."
Shi Wu wanted to ask where the problem was. Zhuge Yang seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly changed the topic: "Senior Brother Shi, please pick two more magical books."
Shi Wu remembered that Zhou Yan had said that this Qi Condensation Period technique was the most expensive in the first level, so he asked with the flow: "Where are the two most expensive techniques?"
Zhuge Yang was a little worried and said, "Senior Brother Shi, should I discuss with my senior brother?"
Shi Wu said seriously: "This has discussed where your senior brother's face will be put. When he sees you, he will remember you for losing his face. Will he still like you?"
After hearing this, Zhuge Yang really felt that it was what Shi Wu said. Thinking that it was the eldest brother who asked Shi Wu to choose anyway, he said, "Come with me."
Shi Wu smiled and went to the innermost row of bookshelfs with Zhuge Yang. There were five magic books vertically placed on it, namely "Double Thunder Breaking Ghost Technique", "Silver Dragon Water-Stimulating Art", "Ten Thousand Trees Suffering Prisoning Technique", "Fire Dragon Glory Heavenly Skilling", and "Golden Dew and Jade Spiritual Flesh".
Shi Wu thought these names were very powerful, but he didn't understand what kind of magic is "Golden Dew and Jade Spiritual Flesh". He asked first: "Junior Brother Zhuge, what is this book?"
Zhuge Yang introduced: "This book is actually not a magic trick, but a prescription, which records the process of making the spiritual meal of golden dew and jade spirit meat. Brother Shi, don't choose this. I asked those senior brothers who have exchanged this prescription and said that this consumes too much. Even the big disciple of the inner sect on Luoyue Peak, Senior Brother Qiu Ji, who has a medium-grade fire spirit root, gave up after exchanged for two pieces. This thing is too consuming and spiritual food, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear."
Shi Wu touched his chin and said, "Even the eldest disciples of Luoyue Peak's inner sect feel regretful?"
Zhuge Yang nodded and said, "What he regrets most is that he was young at that time and spent 400 contributions to exchange for this spiritual meal recipe."
Shi Wu thought for a while and said, "Okay, then let's change this recipe first."
"What...what?" Zhuge Yang thought he had heard it wrong. After all, he said that before. He really didn't know whether Shi Wu couldn't understand or was too confident.
To be continued...
