Chapter 74
From this day on, Zheng Qiu began the arduous process of refining Qi.
He first had to drive the "wood spirit" to circulate in the meridians for a week to transform the qi energy he refined the day before, and then he had to take the herbal medicine according to the prescription written by the master.
First take two plants of Guqi grass to protect the "wood spirit" and the qi that has been refined; then take the core of a Zengli fruit to replenish nutrients for the muscles of the whole body; the third step is to take six Floating Water Yingxiahong, using these six flowers to make his body full of blood and energy in a short time.
In the end, two pills should be eaten as a supplement for physical strength when exhausted.
After eating these things one by one, Zheng Qiu began to run the qi refining part of "Snake Swallowing Body Refining Sutra", extracting flesh and blood to cultivate qi. Although there are these medicinal materials as a base, this method of refining qi with flesh and blood is still beyond the range he can bear.
Every time he practiced, he would lose half of his life, lying on the ground and rolling his eyes like a salted fish. But it was also because of these medicinal materials that Zheng Qiu could recover as usual the next day, and then continue the process of lying on the ground the day before.
There are hundreds of peaks in Qianyun Sect. When you come to the easternmost side, two peaks towards the center of the sect, there is a square building built with stone Tinghua skills.
This building is not high, only about ten floors, but each floor is very long and wide, occupying most of the area of the mountain peak, it looks like a short square stone pier.
On the bottom floor of the square building, there are gates on all four sides. The gates are two feet high and more than ten feet wide, so that people who enter will not feel crowded. There are golden plaques hanging on the four doors, which read, Treasure Building.
This is one of the important buildings of Qianyun Sect. It is specially used for the business of treasures. The business is not only for the sect, but also for all the practitioners of Yunxiu.
The treasure building is not only divided into layers, but also divided into regions. Each different region has different functions and different businesses. There are formal disciples and foreign sect disciples here. The high-value business is handled by the formal disciples, and the low-value business is handled by the foreign sect disciples.
Phew, a khaki streamer fell on the door of the Zhenbao Building, and when the brilliance dissipated, the figure of Elder Ming Zong was revealed. He glanced at the plaque and stepped into the building.
"Oh, elder! The elder is as respected as a mountain. If you need to come to me for anything, as long as you point your eyes, I will definitely..."
Elder Ming Zong stepped into the gate, and before he took a few steps, he was seen by a foreign sect disciple, who immediately ran to him, nodded and bowed in salute.
"Shut up, don't do this to me, flatter you and find someone from another sect to do it." Master Ming Zong glared at him and blocked the rest of his words.
"Yes, yes, what the elder taught is true. I will definitely apply what I have learned, and I will definitely..."
Elder Ming Zong raised his hand and pushed him away, and went straight upstairs: "Get out, go back to work!"
Elder Ming Zong ran all the way to the ninth floor. There was an entire hall in the middle of this floor. The hall was very spacious, occupying almost eight-tenths of the space on the ninth floor. Around the hall, that is, against the wall, is a circle of cubicles.
In the middle of the hall, twenty pure white jade boards were hung from the ceiling. There was a circle of wooden tables under the jade boards. Behind the wooden table, seven or eight official disciples in blue-striped robes were busy.
This hall is dedicated to entrustment business, no matter who it is, they can place orders here. The content of the order will be displayed on the jade board, and the person who placed the order will receive a reward after completing the order.
When entrusting the pending order, the Tiandijing will be kept by Qian Yunzong as a reward, and finally paid by Qian Yunzong to the person who completed the entrustment, so there is no need to worry about defaulting on accounts.
For some high-remuneration commissions, multiple Qianyunzong disciples are needed as witnesses, and the authenticity must be repeatedly confirmed when the commission is delivered. The compartment next to the hall is used for these things.
However, if you place an order in Qianyunzong's Zhenbao Building, you need to abide by the rules here. First, the Treasure Building cannot be entrusted with other than treasures, such as running errands, inviting people to fight, and destroying sects.
The second is,
Those who complete the entrustment to come to Zhenbaolou to receive rewards need to provide their names and places of residence. Even if people with unknown origins complete the entrustment, Zhenbaolou will not recognize it.
These rules established by Zhenbaolou are also to protect Qian Yunzong and prevent the sect from being involved in Yunxiu's grievances and disputes.
Elder Ming Zong squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of the wooden table. He knocked on the wooden table and said, "Pending orders."
The formal disciple in blue-striped clothes was sitting on a chair, burying his head in the booklet and writing quickly.
Hearing the voice, he looked up, and nodded to Elder Ming Zong: "Elder, please wait a moment, I will write this list first." After speaking, he lowered his head again and wrote on the booklet.
Elder Ming Zong was not angry, on the contrary, he was very satisfied with this official disciple: "Yes, you are much better than those who are flattering all the time, and you are doing practical things."
After waiting for a while, the official disciple tore off a piece of paper full of handwriting, picked up the ruby seal on the table, and stamped it. The seal flashed a slight red light, leaving a pattern of clouds on the paper. The pattern was baked out, and you could feel the warmth when you put your fingers close to it.
This is not an ordinary seal. There is a spell pattern embedded in the seal. When the pattern is branded, the seal will print a heat-gathering spell pattern into the pattern.
Therefore, this pattern will always gather the heat in the air. As long as the paper is not destroyed, the heat-gathering spell pattern will always be effective, so this pattern is called Qianyun Huoyin, which is a unique certificate of Qianyunzong's business.
After all this was done, the official disciple stood up from his seat. He bent down and apologized to Elder Ming Zong: "Elder, I'm really sorry for making you wait here..."
Elder Ming Zong waved his hands repeatedly to stop him: "Don't apologize, you did nothing wrong, Qian Yunzong needs a down-to-earth person like you."
"Thank you, elder."
"It's a good seedling to be able to maintain this kind of disposition in Zhenbaolou. Which elder's apprentice are you? I'll visit another day."
"My master is Ming Siqiu. Elder, now is not the time to chat. If you don't place an order, let the people behind come first."
"Ming Siqiu!" Thinking of that seductive woman of Your Excellency Wentian, Elder Ming Zong immediately felt hairy.
Hearing what his disciple said later, he quickly replied: "Placing the order, of course. I want to entrust to find something, it is a stone tablet, maybe it may not be complete."
The disciple sat back in his chair, picked up a pen to write on the booklet, and asked while writing, "Elder, please describe the specific details."
"Uh... the stele should be very old, estimated to have a history of more than a thousand years. The material should be bluestone."
Master Ming Zong took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to his disciple: "There are characters on the stele, which should be in this kind of handwriting, in this round shape."
The disciple held the piece of paper and looked at it for a while, and then asked: "Elder, do you have the specific content on the stele?" Seeing that the elder Ming Zong did not answer, the disciple nodded to express his understanding, and he wrote down in the booklet: The content of the stele is unknown.
Soon, the disciple tore off a piece of paper, stamped it with the dry cloud seal and handed it to Elder Ming Zong.
Elder Ming Zong took out a thousand heavenly crystals and threw them into his disciple's arms. At the same time, he warned: "The reward is one thousand heavenly crystals. You should first announce this entrustment to the sect. If no one completes it in two years, then transfer this entrustment to the disciple." Released to Yunxiu Continent."
