(Talking to myself: In addition to this chapter, there is another chapter on The Cage of Heaven and Earth, and then there are the various tribulations and experiences tailor-made for these five people. In short, if you are interested, I invite you to continue reading.)
"Sister Tang, what exactly is this thing that Brother Qian painted? Is it a monster? Is this what the monster hidden in this hill looks like?" Lu Pingchuan looked behind Tang Ping and asked curiously as he looked at the guy in the painting. road.
"Well, he meant that the things in the mountain are like this, but I... I really don't know about this thing." After speaking, Tang Ping raised her head from the paper and looked at the hill in front of her.
"This thing looks... quite scary." Yanxuan said while looking at the painting.
Li Jian looked at the painting in Tang Ping's hand. Among the five people, he was the only one who could personally feel the extremely powerful and extremely weak aura. Looking at the thing on the paper, it seemed that he was really standing in front of this guy with a sword. , only then did he realize that even if he held a sword in his hand, he was as worthless as a piece of grass. He couldn't help but shook his head in amusement, secretly thinking that Brother Qian's paintings were really lifelike. Thinking that this aura is so powerful, he should look like this. .
After looking at the painting for a while, Lu Pingchuan felt bored. He looked back at Qian Chao and found that he was sitting in front of your desk, writing and drawing. He never expected that Brother Qian would start learning when he arrived outside the clan. , asked: "Brother Qian is writing, what are we doing?"
Yanxuan said: "I took a look just now. There are a lot of spiritual grasses on this hill, just like a grass garden. I will pick the spiritual grasses. Brother Lu, come and help me."
"Um."
…
Qian Chao had no idea what his four companions were doing. He was completely immersed in thinking about the strange things he discovered.
The pen kept writing and drawing on the paper, and the strokes were either smooth or stagnant, just like his brows stretched or wrinkled. The expression on his face did not change much, and sometimes you could see some... There is a smile in my heart, but most of the time it is a dull expression in deep thought.
The paper is filled with one after another. If he is satisfied, Qian Chao will use a ruler as a paperweight and press it on the desk. If he is not satisfied, he will lift it up and throw it lightly or casually crumble it into a ball and throw it out. , and soon pieces of white paper full of pen and ink were scattered around Qian Chao's desk.
There were a lot of spiritual grasses on the hill, which diluted Yanxuan's fear of the hill. After Li Jian told her that although the things below were extremely powerful, they would never hurt anyone, Yanxuan looked at it slightly. Feeling uneasy, she started picking on the hill. Seeing that Yanxuan was still a little scared, Tang Ping came to her side to help, replacing the somewhat rough-handed Lu Pingchuan.
"This is a very suitable place for practice. It would be nice if there wasn't that big guy down there." Yanxuan carefully picked off a spiritual grass and said. She found that the spiritual energy on this hill seemed to be better than that on the five surrounding peaks. A little more intense.
After a while, Yanxuan took all the spiritual herbs on the hill into his pocket one by one.
Then Lu Pingchuan, who had nothing to do, began to complain that he was hungry, so he took out the meat brought from the sect. The other three people also had nothing to do, so they also used some.
"Brother Qian, aren't you hungry?" Lu Pingchuan asked with his mouth full of food as he looked at Qian Chao sitting in front of the desk.
Several people turned to look at Qian Chao and found that he seemed to be unaware of the taste of the food. He was still holding a pen and staring at the paper not knowing what he was thinking.
"He's not hungry now, Brother Lu. If you go over and yell at him right now, he probably won't be able to hear you." Tang Ping said.
A gust of wind blew here from the direction of Qian Chao, bringing with it several pieces of paper that Qian Chao had thrown away. Yanxuan saw one and grabbed one, and looked at the strange and unfamiliar words on the paper. He asked curiously: "Is this the rune that Brother Qian is most interested in?"
"It should be," Tang Ping said, "He used these strange and winding characters in refining weapons, making talismans, and arranging formations."
After eating, because Qian Chao was still deep in thought, several people didn't know what he had come up with and couldn't disturb him, so they waited for him nearby. Lu Pingchuan found a piece of soft grass and fell asleep soundly. Tang Ping and the others found the snoring funny, but even if Lu Pingchuan snored louder, Qian Chao seemed to turn a deaf ear and was not affected by it at all.
Li Jian looked at Qian Chao and secretly wondered how long it had been. Brother Qian was really attentive, and he felt a bit of admiration in his heart. He thought of the slovenly look when Brother Qian came to him to test his shield for the first time a few days ago. He must have been able to do that after a lot of slovenly thinking, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
Noticing the faint smile on Li Jian's face, Tang Ping asked curiously: "Brother Li, what are you laughing at?"
Li Jian said: "I envy Brother Qian."
"Oh?" After hearing this, Tang Ping and Yan Xuan looked back at Qian Chao curiously. Seeing that Qian Chao was still sitting still, Tang Ping asked again, "What is there to envy him?"
"I envy his concentration," Li Jian replied, "It's rare for Brother Qian to practice by refining weapons. What's even more rare is that he can be so focused. When I ask myself, I rarely can be as focused as Brother Qian when I practice, let alone The way he is now, he is focused on nothing, focusing on what he sees in front of him and what is in his mind. There is nothing else. He is not disturbed by other things, and his surroundings are peaceful. His appearance is not so much It is better to say that I am enjoying when I am thinking hard, this is what I envy, and it is difficult for me to reach this state when I am practicing."
Li Jian's words moved Yanxuan's heart. She recalled the time when she was refining alchemy, and it seemed to be the same. At that time, she felt neither happy nor worried, and time passed quickly, so she couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Tang Ping was even more touched by Li Jian's words. She turned to look at Qian Chao and the boy's lowered eyebrows. After a while, she sighed softly. Among the five people, Tang Ping His intelligence is not inferior to Qian Chao's, and his spiritual root qualifications are much better than Qian Chao's. But look at this kid, his spiritual roots are almost the worst, but his cultivation has not fallen behind, and he still has one hand. The beautiful weapon refining skills have made a name for themselves and entered the inner hall. It seems that for this kid to be where he is today, intelligence is second, and concentration is the first.
No wonder his master and Grandpa Six always scolded me for being playful, but I really wanted to learn from this kid his single-mindedness in the future.
Time passed little by little, and it was a bit boring for Tang Ping and the other four people. Although there were a lot of spiritual herbs on the five surrounding peaks, Qian Chao could not be left here alone, so Tang Ping, Yan Xuan and Li Jian were talking quietly on the side. Later, Lu Pingchuan woke up and saw that brother Qian was still writing like a demon, so he joined in and told interesting stories about hunting in the mountains with his father and brother at home.
The sun is gradually moving westward and sinking, and there is a chill in the air around us.
During this period, Tang Ping stood up several times and gathered the scattered papers around. Although she couldn't understand these things, she couldn't leave them here. After all, it was all Qian Chao's hard thinking, even if he wrote them wrongly. If it's wrong, it must be destroyed in the end, lest someone come here and see any clues in the future. She also polished the ink for Qian Chao several times and added some water to the inkstone. When she was polishing the ink, she realized that this boy Qian really seemed to be demented and ignored her.
It's really peaceful and quiet, Tang Ping thought to herself.
But we can't just keep going like this. Who knows how long it will take for this rich guy to stay in such a state of insanity. Could it be that he has to spend the night here today?
Just when the sun had already set halfway up the surrounding mountains, the four of them saw Qian Chao stand up from behind the bookcase and fly to the hill. They didn't know what he was going to do, but they must have figured out something. The four of them also flew over.
Right above the hill, Qian Chao took out five talismans. He looked down and determined the location of the center of the hill. Then he pinched the talisman with his left hand. After a few hand gestures with his right hand, he touched the five talismans. However, the runes on the five talismans did not change, but the five yellow papers shone slightly. Then Qian Chao released his left hand, and the five talismans hung in front of him.
Seeing Tang Ping and others flying over, Qian Chao said, "I want to confirm one more thing. If it is the same as what I thought, it will prove that my idea is generally correct."
Tang Ping took a closer look at the talismans, and then asked curiously: "Hey, what are these talismans for?"
Seeing that Tang Ping and others were still staring at the five talismans curiously, Qian Chao had a little pride on his face, and said: "These five talismans are my own creation, well, at least no one taught me Please tell me, this talisman cannot be used to deal with monsters or monks, but it can be used to generally determine whether there is a spiritual vein and the direction of the spiritual vein."
After Qian Chao finished speaking, several people saw that the five talismans were floating in five directions, and they were going very slowly. Moreover, they also discovered that once the talismans determined the direction in which they were floating, the talismans would The strange runes written by Qian Chao on the paper began to light up faintly.
Seeing the runes light up and seeing the talismans slowly flying out in one direction, Qian Chao's face flushed with excitement. He pointed with his hand and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Look...look... Their direction!”
Tang Ping and others also discovered that the five talismans flew in the direction facing the five surrounding peaks.
Qian Chao said: "I will try another way to make them fly faster. Each of the five of us will follow a talisman to the five mountains over there, and then remember where they are on that mountain, and I will go and look at them one by one." "
A few people nodded. The five surrounding peaks had been checked and there was no danger. The biggest guy here was at the feet of them, and they still couldn't get out. Naturally, they were safe.
The five of them each found a talisman and followed them. After Qian Chao made a few moves, he saw that the runes on the talisman shone much faster and flew out like startled birds. The five of them had already prepared themselves. Follow closely behind a talisman.
In this way, the five people each followed a talisman all the way to the halfway point of the five surrounding peaks. They watched the talisman finally stick to the mountain wall, and then waited there for Qian Chao to come and inspect it.
This step didn't seem difficult. Qian Chao first followed his talisman to see where it was posted, then looked at the blue light shining in the mountain wall carefully for a moment, then put the talisman away and flew away hastily. Head towards the nearby mountain peak.
I have seen the positions where the five mountain talismans collided, and all five talismans have been put away. The excitement on Qian Chao's face became more and more obvious. Tang Ping and others knew that Qian Chao seemed to be close to the answer, and then several people continued He followed Qian Chao and flew back to the writing desk next to the hill.
But who would have thought that as soon as the money tide went down, he would sit back again.
Tang Ping thought to herself, could it be possible that she really had to stay here with this kid all night?
However, Qian Chao didn't seem to have this plan. After sitting down, he looked at his companions around him, smiled apologetically, and said, "It'll be fine soon. Although it's impossible to understand everything, I generally know some of the mysteries here. Stay a little longer and tell everyone right away.”
Knowing that Qian Chao wanted to talk in detail, Tang Ping and others sat around the desk.
Qian Chao recorded what he saw on the five peaks on a piece of paper. He looked up at his companions with a melancholy and excited smile on his face and said:
"Well, this time is really not in vain. This place... is indeed a complete and undamaged heaven and earth cage."
Tang Ping and the other four people had already guessed this. Of course, Lu Pingchuan didn't care about it. He only heard Tang Ping say that the Heaven and Earth Cage was a place where some extremely powerful and dangerous monsters were imprisoned. He was even more curious about how powerful the monsters inside were. .
Tang Ping said: "You said this is a prison of heaven and earth, how can you prove it?"
Qian Chao replied: "Everyone knows that my eyes can see in, but I can't see that far at first. Fortunately, I got the spiritual spring water on the island of giant trees last time, so I can see more. To be honest, with After drinking the spiritual spring water, I was terrified."
Tang Ping took out the painting painted by Qian Chao and said, "Is this what you see inside?"
"That's right, if it was just buried in the soil, I wouldn't be able to see its appearance clearly, but coincidentally, it is in the spiritual veins. Although I can't see the spiritual veins, its body is directly charged by the spiritual energy. However, you can always see its appearance clearly through the slight delay on it when the spiritual energy passes by."
Tang Ping asked again: "Have you seen clearly the formation that forms the cage of heaven and earth?"
"Well, I can see it clearly, but it's not easy to figure it out. After thinking about it for a long time, I can only figure out a superficial understanding, but I do know how the formation is generally arranged."
"Then come and listen!"
