Chapter 54 Ask the Prince for advice

Xiaoqiu walked around the woodland near the house and arrived at another dining room just in time for lunch. The male disciples lined up to return to their room. They wanted to rest for a while and prepare for their afternoon practice.

After no one was seen on the road, Xiaoqiu quickly walked to a house, raised his hand and hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door gently.

"Who?" The voice in the room showed a little vigilant, not very much like a disciple of Pang Shan who was concentrating on practicing.

Xiaoqiu knocked on the door again.

"Come in." The person inside reluctantly responded, as if he was very unhappy that someone was visiting.

Xin Youtao sat on the bed, looking at Xiaoqiu who was pushing the door in surprise, "It's you? What are you here?"

His room was as small as others', but it was full of luggage, some of which seemed to have never been opened, and had accumulated a thin layer of dust.

"Talk." Xiaoqiu sat on a chair at the door and faced with Xin Youtao.

Xin Youtao became more and more alert, "This is not the Jinghu Village Pavilion, be careful, don't cause trouble for yourself."

Xiaoqiu smiled, "It seems that you have not changed much. Yangshen Peak has little impact on you. Let's talk about this."

"I don't want to talk." Xin Youtao was very annoyed, thinking that the other party was ridiculing his practice of stagnating, but he still didn't know anything.

"Okay, I'm here to ask you a question."

"Ask me for advice?" Xin Youtao was stunned again, went downstairs and put on his shoes, looked at Xiaoqiu left and right, "Tell you, don't play tricks with me, I'm not a fool... What do you want to ask me for advice?" He still couldn't help but be curious.

"That's right, a person obviously hates you and hates you, but does not show it, but suddenly apologizes to you for peace. Why is this?"

Xin Youtao suddenly realized, "Oh, you mean fellow Taoist Shen Ji." He paused and looked at Xiao Qiu, "A person who has attained Taoism has no desires or disputes. If he has seven orifices, his mind and nature will naturally change. You should believe in his sincerity."

Xiaoqiu heard that he was sarcastic, "Don't you want to see the two factions confront each other? Don't you want me to shake my arms and fight for territory? Then do this little favor."

Xin Youtao once served as a lobbyist for Shen Geng. At that time, he revealed his true purpose was to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. Xiao Qiu re-reported the old story, which made him hesitate a little, "So you still remember what I said."

"Remember, and remember a lot."

"You..." Xin Youtao's face turned red. He had expected that the other party would make this blow sooner or later, but he still could not hide his anger when it came. He regretted his negligence a month ago and actually revealed to the wild child the past of his failure in the struggle in the palace.

"You said that games are fighting. Don't you want to participate in this game?" Xiaoqiu added.

Xin Youtao found out that he had misunderstood. Mu Xingqiu did not mean to threaten him with that matter, so he coughed twice, "Are you really asking me for advice?"

"Well, I think among our group of disciples, only you can see through the truth of this game."

Being flattered by someone he fears is enough to make people feel happy even if it is just an ambiguous sentence. Xin Youtao didn't want to be too happy, but he still smiled on his face, coughed a few times, and changed into a serious and mysterious expression, "This is not the truth, this is the rule."

"oh?"

"To be honest, I don't understand the rules of Pangshan Taoist dynasty, but I think many principles are common. The set of the Siji royal family is still appropriate here. If you want to know why Shin Ji apologized, you must first determine the location of both of you."

"We are all disciples of Pangshan, but he was born in the Taoist family, and I am from Yelin Town."

"Haha, you are still so proud. After all, you have seen too few worlds." Xin Youtao walked to Xiaoqiu and kicked away a useless package. His eyes were filled with excitement. "How can Yelin Town be compared with the Taoist family? I ask you, who is your Yelin Town with the highest status."

"Chen Hao's family, his father is the garrison and the richest master in the town, the house..."

"Enough is enough, I'll ask you again, in Yelin Town, especially in front of Chen Hao's father, would you say something like 'our Mu family and Shen family'?"

Xiaoqiu thought for a while, but he had never noticed such a small thing before. He shook his head, "No, Liu Er from the front street once said that he was a relative of Mr. Shen, but he was scolded by someone."

"Look, this is the reason. In Pangshan Daotong, the Shen family is the 'master', and you are still Xiaoqiu, and your status is similar to that of Liu Er."

"But Mr. Shen will not apologize to anyone in the town."

"That's because his status is not high enough." Xin Youtao became interested and showed off his own way of doing things to outsiders. This is much more interesting than the kind of practice of thoughts and practice.

"What is true contempt? It's not about shouting at you, nor about trampling you under your feet. It's about not being there. In Xijie City, I wear the most gorgeous clothes and eat the most exquisite food, but do I need to meet the tailor and the chef? No; groups of servants walk around me and do all kinds of things for me, but I don't remember a single name - this is contempt! If you want to be my enemy, you must first be similar to my status. In Jinghu Village, everyone's status is messed up, but that's temporary. At Yangshen Peak, the status must restore its original importance."

"Shin Ji apologized for his contempt for his contempt?" Xiao Qiu was confused. The royal rules sounded like a contradictory bastard.

"That's it." Xin Youtao shrugged, lost a long sense of superiority and came back a little. "He apologized to you, you accept the apology, and the matter ended here. People will never say anything like "Mu Xingqiu wants to seek revenge from the Shen family" and "Mu Xingqiu wants to provoke Yang Dujia". For you, such rumors are glory, but shame to the Shen family. It's like in Xijie City, if my name is compared with a chef every day, no matter whether it is a good or a bad thing, I will be ashamed to death."

Xiaoqiu understood a little, "So Shen Ji really wants to keep the water from the river from now on?"

"Haha." Xin Youtao laughed and kept shaking his head, "You can't get rid of the idea of ​​the children in Yelin Town. I heard that you agreed on the revenge plan last night, and you also claimed that you were unfamiliar with Santian. Haven't you ever thought that the Shen family also had a revenge plan?"

"I know Shen Geng will kill people in the fifth year."

"Isn't this clear? You, and your fellow villagers, all belong to Shen Geng, and only to Shen Geng. Shen Ji will stand up for his brother, which will be a shame for Shen Geng; Yang Du teaches her stand up for his son, which will be a shame for her. Who is she? The Huifeng Master of Xinglu Realm, who will show a trace of hatred to you will become a stain on her life."

"Thank you." Xiaoqiu stood up and felt that it was almost done. Xin Youtao's words should not be heard too much, nor could he believe them all. Xiaoqiu had to guarantee that he would not be dragged into the water by the prince.

Xin Youtao was still unsatisfied and licked his lips and said, "Have you noticed that everyone queued up according to the room number in Yangshen Peak and rarely walked side by side. In this way, no one shook his arms to grab the position. Do you think this is a good thing?"

"I don't know." Xiaoqiu thought for a while, then pushed the door and left.

Xin Youtao walked around proudly, jumped onto the bed and decided to take a nap. Even if Mu Xingqiu took half of these words seriously, he would go further on the road to becoming a demon, if there was really a demon seed in his body.

"He will believe it." Xin Youtao whispered to himself, "Because I'm telling the truth. Hey, I can't force you to be deviled, so I'll help you to be deviled."

The afternoon homework was conducted in Qiyao Hall, which was also a hall embedded in the mountain. It was smaller than the Sizu Hall. There was a row of wooden frames against the wall to place many weapons.

"You have not condensed the energy and formed a pill, and you cannot cast the five elements spells, but you must first learn the basic skills of casting." Yang Baozhen pointed to the row of wooden frames, "Please choose the artifact you like and treat it as a magic weapon."

Most people choose swords, and Xiaoqiu is no exception. Since he saw Li Yuechi killing the snake demon, he stubbornly believed that Taoist priests should be equipped with swords. Some people also chose iron rulers and iron sticks, especially female disciples, who were more willing to use lighter utensils, such as iron fans and Ruyi.

Yang Baozhen showed off his magic weapon, a green jade Ruyi, which immediately attracted the attention of all disciples, especially Xiaoqiu.

"All Taoist priests who condense qi into pills must create a magic weapon for themselves, which may accompany you for life. There are many benefits to magic weapons, and they will introduce them to others. I won't say much. I will only teach you Taoist priests of the Five Elements Department how to use magic weapons. First of all, the male disciple holds magic weapons in the left hand, and the female disciple uses his right hand."

Yang Baozhen held Ruyi in his right hand, raised his left hand, pressed his thumb against his ring finger, and the other three fingers were vertical, leaving a gap between his fingers, "This is the Taoist Fire Art. It is both a ceremony for fellow Taoists to meet and a basic magic method for casting. This method can be used to suddenly encounter demons, so that you can immediately stimulate the magic weapon and cast protective magic. Everyone can try it as I do."

This is easier to learn. The disciples have to do a meeting ceremony several times every day. The posture is exactly the same, but there is an extra magic weapon in the hands behind them, and there is no need to bow.

Yang Baozhen also taught his disciples seven moves of the Taoist Fire Art: the hand behind him does not move, the Taoist Fire Art on the other hand stops in front of his chest, the head protection style over the shoulder, the ground is the lower plate style, and so on.

Although the magic weapons in everyone's hands were just ordinary objects and could not cast any spells, everyone practiced them as if they were decent.

"The Taoist sect has 108 magic tricks, and the Taoist fire trick is just one of them. Each magic trick has several changes, and there are a total of 961 styles. Some of you may have been determined to enter the Five Elements Department, so you must start practicing diligently from today until you can pick it up easily. As for those who are not interested in the Five Elements Department, you must also be proficient in using these magic tricks. Beyond the Tao are demons, and no one can guarantee that you will never encounter danger. Slaying demons and eliminating demons is the responsibility of every Taoist priest."

Xiaoqiu was surprised that Yang Baozhen could actually say something similar to Meng Yuanhou. These two people were Taoist priests of the Five Elements Department, but one always emphasized "defying the heavens", while the other valued "straight the heavens", and did not look like a person in the same way at all.

What surprised Xiaoqiu even more was that the jade Ruyi in his hand was exactly the same as the magic weapon that Shen Ji stepped on when he went to the cave, but was a little smaller.

In any case, a person can never dream of something he has never seen before. Xiaoqiu suddenly believed Xin Youtao's analysis a little more, and at the same time, he became more convinced that he had survived more than one disaster in the cave.
