For children, the Chinese New Year is always something worth looking forward to, even in the Zheng Family's Inner Courtyard.
Starting from the last few days of the new year, the flavor of the New Year is getting hotter day by day, and the whole air is filled with the atmosphere of the New Year.
After Yu Youquan collected the Jue Sheng Sword Qi, he wholeheartedly waited for the gourd of Jue Sheng Sword Qi to be refined into a real treasure. He didn't seem to have much feeling about the New Year.
but.
As the flavor of the New Year gets stronger day by day, he is inevitably drawn into the atmosphere of the New Year.
One day, Grandma Qu brought a gift list for Yu Youquan to look at. Only then did he realize that there were so many things to consider when preparing New Year gifts for relatives and elders.
After Yu Youquan took a brief look at it, he found that Granny Qu had prepared it very appropriately and had considered all aspects carefully, including why this gift was given like this.
I have to say that they are indeed professionals in this area.
After Yu Youquan read it, he simply added a few touches to the gifts for a few particularly important people, and left the rest almost unchanged.
for example.
Master Yao Jingxin and Yu Youquan added an extra handful of Dendrobium Lake beads to their gifts.
This thing has its own beautifying effect, which is equivalent to skin care products. My wife should like it, and my senior sister Zheng Yingru also has a copy.
For junior sister Zheng Yingyuan, she asked Ruiman to prepare some toys that could make the children happy.
for example.
A relatively interesting little book; a very festive and creative doll; and a variety of snacks with a very New Year flavor.
As for the rest, Yu Youquan secretly asked Ruiman to find someone to help him make several spiritual tablets.
His current identity is known to everyone who should know it, so there is no need to be too secretive.
If he could pay homage to his parents, he would still be very willing to do it.
After all, they are his biological parents in this life, and when his parents are still alive, it is indeed a rare happy time in his life.
Yu Youquan even quietly asked his confidants to take a trip to Linchuan County and secretly provide some care for his grandparents and their family.
As for other Yu Youquan, he has no plans to interfere too much for the time being.
After all, he is not yet powerful enough to be fearless of his enemies' unexpected moves, so it is best not to involve them too much in a world that does not belong to them.
Since the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to celebrate the Small New Year, the whole Jianye has officially entered the atmosphere of celebrating the New Year.
The twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month is mainly for official contacts.
for example.
There are rituals and rewards from the imperial court.
Just like Yu Youquan, he also has an official status as a "mage", and on the New Year's Day, official palace officials will send gifts.
The gifts were very generous. The first was nearly three thousand taels of silver, and the rest were various gifts that symbolized the New Year.
for example.
Silks and satins, gold and silver jewelry, various palace New Year snacks, the Four Treasures of the Study, and even some beautifully made cloaks.
The most valuable thing is a fist-sized luminous pearl, which contains rich vitality and looks green and sparkling, very pleasant.
The remaining items include the warm jade pendant. As long as it is worn on the body, it can very effectively expel the cold air from the body and is extremely valuable.
It can be seen that the imperial court is indeed very careful in this regard.
It's normal when you think about it. After all, Yu Youquan is now at the peak of his power, and he has the status of being the direct descendant of the Lord Zheng. Since the court wants to give gifts, it is naturally impossible for him to play tricks on him.
It can also be seen from this that the imperial court is indeed very attentive to "nurturing scholars".
After all, we need to rely on practitioners like them for everything in the world, and the imperial court and even the emperor in the palace are still clear about this.
On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, a series of New Year rituals are arranged.
Door gods, couplets, peach charms, hanging signs, new oil. A new look, full of joy.
On New Year's Eve, it's time to have a reunion dinner.
This is quite complicated. The Zheng family has too many people.
But the ultimate sense of ritual will inevitably bring the ultimate impression and memory.
In just one reunion dinner, Yu Youquan felt that the Zheng family was prosperous and prosperous.
It seems that the Zheng family will continue to prosper and prosper forever.
It's just that no one who was laughing at Yan Yan at this time thought that this would be the last peaceful year they would live!
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I go around to pay New Year greetings and visit relatives and friends.
In Zheng's case, it is necessary to maintain relationships with various families.
As a disciple of the Lord Zheng, Yu Youquan was really trapped in all kinds of rules and regulations.
Even though he has always adhered to the concept of minimizing trouble as much as possible by not being afraid of trouble, he is still somewhat of a Muggle.
Throughout the Spring Festival, I was troubled by the trivial matters of visiting relatives and friends, giving and receiving gifts, and all kinds of acknowledging relatives.
I kept busy like this until after the Lantern Festival, when the feeling of the New Year completely dissipated.
Around mid-February, the freed-up Master finally teamed up with several elders to help him successfully condense the sword energy in the purple gourd into treasure energy that could be used as a gift.
Yu Youquan suddenly felt excited.
At this point, he finally had enough of fifteen treasures.
There was nothing much to say, so Yu Youquan immediately announced his retreat.
Decisively re-activated the enlightenment mode of Longzhu Cave Heaven, officially began to practice the Innate One-Qi Xuan Light Blade, and directly pushed the realm to the peak of the second realm.
Unlike the first level where the core is at Kaitianmen and the meridians and Dantians are used to accumulate energy, the second level is about refining precious energy and developing various spells based on the precious energy.
As for the highest requirement of the second realm, it is to refine one's own treasure energy into a "treasure weapon", so that one can reach the peak of the second realm.
Of course, there are still huge differences between "peak" and "peak". The core difference in intensity between the two realms lies in the quality and amount of precious energy.
Since refining treasure energy requires a long time investment, large families with deep foundations usually use special secret methods to smelt multiple attributes into one treasure energy.
In this way, it only takes the time to refine a treasure qi, and you can have multiple attack methods.
But even so, the number of treasures refined by Heaven's Proud One will generally not exceed three types.
After there are more than three types, the fourth treasure energy will take at least four to five years, or more than seven or eight years of refining time, which no one can bear.
What's more, tempering treasure energy into treasure weapons also requires a huge investment of time.
Yu Youquan is definitely an alternative among alternatives.
boom!
Along with a series of ripples, the artistic conception of the mouth of heaven and earth source energy collected in the Longzhu Cave suddenly spread to the entire Longzhu Cave.
It was like a source of energy, and the six treasures refined by Yu Youquan suddenly disappeared and turned into the number of Yin Liu.
The next nine heavenly treasures that he brought into the Longzhu Cave seemed to turn into pure yang instantly under the influence of that mouthful of heaven and earth source qi, which just matched the number of "Nine Yangs".
As the yin and yang began to become more perfect, Yu Youquan suddenly felt that his body began to transform.
Treasure energy nourishes the body, and calamity evil refines the body.
For a monk in the second realm, any precious energy has infinite uses.
Just like the Holy Demon Burning Heart Qi, it can refine both body and mind, and is of great help to Yu Youquan.
The extremely powerful body that was nourished by Shi Chi's non-seizing Qi once again became stronger and stronger little by little under the guidance of the Holy Demon's Burning Heart Qi.
certainly.
The most powerful part of the Holy Demon Burning Heart Qi is the illusion. Yu Youquan keenly felt that in the spiritual space between the eyebrows, the good and the evil in the depths of the soul began to become stronger under the nourishment of this precious Qi.
As a result, Yu Youquan once again stood at the crossroads of choice.
Should the "saint" here in Holy Demon Burning Heart Qi choose Taoist concepts or Buddhist concepts?
After a brief tangle, Yu Youquan decided not to think about it anymore.
Whether Buddha or sage, they are all essentially the same, and Tao and Dharma naturally come from me.
The Buddhas, Saints and Demons here can actually be understood as the good self and the evil self, or even as the good corpse and the evil corpse, as well as the laws of nature and human desires.
As Yu Youquan gradually figured it out, a villain with the face of Yu Youquan gradually began to appear in the space between his eyebrows.
He has two sides, one is upright and upright, the other is evil and cunning.
Representing the upright and bright side, righteousness and divinity gradually converge, and begin to show some characteristics of saints and Buddhas.
Compassion, love, broadness, and breadth.
Representing the evil side, human nature is more concentrated, and a large amount of darkness begins to gather, showing various characteristics of the devil's human desires.
Vicious, greedy, narrow-minded and selfish.
There are two sides in one body, but in the end it is the side that belongs to the Holy Buddha, suppressing the evil side.
Then, the five imperial auras of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth appeared. As soon as these five imperial auras emerged, they seemed to immediately sublimate and transform into the Five Elements Avenue in the Longzhu Cave.
The colorful brilliance is like me and you, like a golden beam running across it, completely encompassing the entire Longzhu Cave.
His internal organs roared as a result, making thunderous sounds.
It seems that due to the existence of these five treasures, it will begin to transform and sublimate.
As soon as Jun Lintianxia's true dragon energy came out, it was directly assimilated into Longzhu Cave Heaven. It was like a lure and a bait, catching a "real dragon" directly from Longzhu Cave Heaven.
As soon as this real dragon came out, Kaka swallowed the "bait" completely in just a few mouthfuls, and then curled his lips in a humane manner, as if he was not satisfied with the taste of this "true dragon's aura that dominates the world" and felt a little disgusted. .
Then, it started to swim directly in the Longzhu Cave, as if it really came to life, not a treasure but a real dragon in the true sense.
Yu Youquan's eyes showed surprise.
When he knew that the second realm needed to eat treasure energy, he had been thinking about whether he could eat the ancestral dragon energy from Senior Long, but he never had a good way.
Unexpectedly, to catch an ancestral dragon energy, you need a true dragon energy as bait, and the "appearance fee" is really expensive.
But it’s worth it!
This means that among his fifteen treasure qi, another treasure qi has suddenly become the top treasure qi in the world.
Senior Long is an ancestral dragon who has been worshiped by incense and possesses civilized attributes. I really don’t know what kind of improvement his ancestral dragon energy can bring to him.
Looking at the pocket version of the ancestral dragon in front of him that had been soaring around the world excitedly, Yu Youquan's eyes couldn't help but shine with a bright light, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.
Compared with other treasure qi, this ancestral dragon qi is too special.
The dragon scales, dragon claws, dragon horns, and dragon body all appear very real, just like real flesh and blood, without any sense of illusion at all.
It surpasses all the treasures he has refined!
Or maybe he couldn't get used to the arrogance of the Ancestral Dragon Qi, so the precious Qi refined with the Juesheng Sword Qi was directly turned into a sharp sword, as if it wanted to kill all those who challenged its status here.
Then, Juesheng Sword Qi and the Ancestral Dragon Qi started to fight.
The sky was dark and the earth was dark, the sun and the moon were without light, and even other treasures were pushed aside.
Is this okay?
Yu Youquan had never thought that he was just refining the precious energy, and actually saw with his own eyes the scene of two rays of precious energy hitting the sky and the earth.
This is really off the mark!
but.
These treasures must be surrendered and refined by him one by one after all, and he cannot always let them fight.
Afterwards, Yu Youquan used the little pitiful little transparent lotus' untainted qi and the ancestral dragon qi to subdue the Juesheng sword qi.
It is true that this Juesheng Sword Qi is too conspicuous. Other precious Qi only nourish the body and bring positive improvement and feedback to the owner.
But the Juesheng Sword Qi was too sharp, and it had been causing pain all over his body so far, making him feel as if his meridians were about to be cut off and his Dantian was about to be pierced.
It's too conspicuous and rebellious. We must first find a way to subdue and refine the conspicuous Bao Juesheng sword energy.
At this time, the Lotus Pure Qi can come in handy. It is the most suitable precious Qi for making swords.
What Yu Youquan didn't expect was that Zu Longqi didn't appreciate his help at all. Instead, he seemed to blame him, an outsider, for not meddling in other people's business.
Still helping him?
Do you look down on dragons?
It will break that broken sword right now!
And Juesheng Jianqi was also angry, using more people to bully less people, right?
What it likes most is to fight one against ten thousand. Do you really think you are its opponent?
Then.
The Juesheng Sword Qi was divided into two parts. While killing the Ancestral Dragon Qi, it also killed Yu Youquan, the one who was leaning away.
For a while.
There was a quarrel in Longzhu Cave.
Yu Youquan was not surprised but overjoyed. At present, Juesheng Sword Qi and Zulong Qi were obviously higher than other treasures by more than one level.
incredible!
But he still had to surrender and refine them all today, and he had the final say over his territory.
Yu Youquan's retreat this time is bound to take longer than usual.
While he was in retreat, Zheng Laozu, Zheng Xuancheng, the Great Elder and others received the summoning order from the Jiuxuan Sect at the same time.
When Zheng Xuancheng saw the glowing summons, he was surprised and could not help but feel a dark cloud in his heart.
The last time I received a summons was during the Jiakang Rebellion.
At that time, the Northern Wei Dynasty invaded from the south, and the kings of Jiuxuanmen were wiped out in one battle. The ancestral land of Shanmen was not protected. Seeing that all order was about to collapse, Jiuxuanmen was forced to issue a summons order.
And now Jiuxuanmen has once again issued a summons to the Buddhist Landuo Temple to become a saint?
Apart from this reason, Zheng Xuancheng really couldn't think of any reason to directly force Jiuxuanmen to issue a summons order.
What the Southern Jin Dynasty had to face now was not the failure of the Northern Expedition, but the second Northern Expedition to the South.
If it cannot be resisted, the Jiangshan Sheji Ancestral Temple may be destroyed as a result.
Zheng Xuancheng looked at his wife in front of him and said, "Madam, the country is in trouble, and my husband must go to Jiuxuanmen. Everything in the clan has been entrusted to the lady. If Juli comes out of seclusion, he will also have trouble with teaching matters in the future. Madam, please take a lot of trouble.”
"If he comes to the Third Realm, arrange for him to guard Shanhe Mansion, and at the same time let Shi Bai run Tonglin Mansion. Tonglin Mansion will take advantage of his wealth, while Shanhe Mansion will be light on corvee and low on wealth."
Yao Jingxin's beautiful eyes twinkled, but she understood what her husband meant.
The purpose of doing light corvee and low endowment is to capture the hearts and minds of the people, and essentially to leave a way out.
The purpose of taking all the wealth in Tonglin Mansion is to increase the Zheng family's heritage. It is almost clear that the Zheng family may not be able to defend the ancestral land of Tonglin Mansion.
Already reached this point?
PS: It’s 4,000 words again. It’s the end of the month. I think everyone has a monthly ticket. I hope you can vote one or two for Xiaoyu to support me. Thank you everyone.
