Chapter 30 Is the New Year a Bear or a Rabbit?
Chapter 30 Is the New Year a bear or a rabbit?
When the purple thunder stopped, the thick clouds gradually dispersed, penetrating countless colorful lights.
Chao Jianxue was swaying on the horse, looking back, and blurted out in amazement: "Tyndall effect!"
Yu Wei was walking on the side with the horse, and when he heard his sudden words, he also looked back.
"It is the light of heaven." He said softly.
It means that Ziwei Yuanjun has successfully entered the realm of crossing the tribulation. From now on, the gifts and congratulatory letters sent from all over the country will gather in Youmeng Sanqiandu, filling up the Hehuan Sect.
"Suddenly, a cultivator who crosses the tribulation appeared, and the masters may not be able to sit still." Xie Bingyuan sighed.
Li Zhenzhen said, "Fortunately, it's not from the Tianyao Sect, otherwise the headmaster would have to work hard and stay in seclusion for three years, and we disciples would be in trouble!"
"What's the difference?"
Li Zhenzhen hurried his horse a few steps and rode side by side with Chao Jianxue, saying, "Just like we can barely stop Lin Yao in the Spiritualization Stage with our combined strength, Ziwei Yuanjun follows the Way of Joy and is not good at killing. In terms of force alone, he can't beat a late Mahayana sword cultivator. Even if the pressure of the Tribulation Realm comes down, two Mahayana cultivators should be able to break it."
It turns out that there is such a way, Chao Jianxue understood.
He thought of the Qianli Sword in his heart. Ever since Ye Yuanjun gave him the sword, he kept it in his golden bracelet. At this time, he extended his spiritual consciousness to see, and was horrified to find that the sword had lost its shape.
After a closer look, he found that the Qianli Sword had merged with his Ming Qianli, and the two weapon spirits merged into one, slowly rotating tirelessly.
Chao Jianxue took another look at the colorful beams of light falling from the sky.
The wind blew, and the purple cherry blossoms fluttered and fell under the sky, blooming like rain and fog, like a colorful bubble in a dream.
They flashed back to Wuwei Sect, but they forgot to put on more clothes, and were covered by the flying snow.
The timing was just right, and the next day was the sect reunion dinner.
The disciples paid New Year's greetings to their masters, the headmaster, and the masters of other peaks one by one. When it was Chao Jianxue's turn, he should have just paid his respects as a routine, but the headmaster called him and asked again: "Have you reached the Golden Core?"
Chao Jianxue straightened his back, imitated Yu Wei's respectful manner, and simply replied "Yes".
The other disciples present all showed expressions as if they had seen a ghost. This kind of thing was more strange than the sun rising from the west.
The headmaster stroked his long beard leisurely and tilted his head to look at Mu Yuan, who also looked back humbly: "Don't worry, headmaster. This child has finally embarked on the right path."
Chao Jianxue felt the headmaster's intriguing gaze again, which inexplicably made him uncomfortable. He couldn't help but complain, is it because he suspects that he has an unrighteous background? Don't be so prejudiced.
He stood for a while with his head lowered and finally got a seat. According to seniority, he sat on the left side of Nanshan.
Li Zhenzhen waved to him from behind, and he raised the jade dew in his hand and touched it with his.
The so-called reunion dinner was thought to be an ordinary meal, but when the dishes were served one by one, Chao Jianxue was a little staring blankly.
What about pearl pills, hundred-year-old ginseng slices, a drop of dew gathered from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth...
At this time, he had to admit that he was a wild boar and couldn't eat fine bran.
Chao Jianxue saw that the other disciples around him were devoutly tasting the dishes as if they had found a treasure. He tasted them one by one absent-mindedly, and the taste was like chewing wax.
After that, it was time for the disciples to socialize.
He was still chewing the round and cold pearl in his mouth with great effort when he heard someone making fun of him.
"Who knows what means he used? It's impossible to get the golden elixir all at once..."
Although the voice was small, Chao Jianxue was narrow-minded and very sensitive to such voices.
He immediately looked at the source of the voice with a cold face.
Even if it was the result of Qianli Ming's heart method, it was the heart method he had snatched away and the key point he had desperately broken through. The blood flowed like a river and the pain was piercing the heart, but it turned into a question of "what means", which was really funny.
Chao Jianxue was usually beautiful, and she was also very deterrent when she had a cold face. Her two black eyes were heavy and looked like she wanted to eat people.
"Just look at his appearance, how can he look like a disciple of Wuwei Sect?"
Those disciples changed their positions, probably looking for another place to make fun of him.
Chao Jianxue bit the pearl in a sullen manner, and the touch of ice chips cracked in his mouth, making his teeth tremble with cold.
He turned his head and saw that Yu Wei was surrounded by people, calling each other junior brothers, and it was very lively. Li Zhenzhen and Xie Bingyuan were also laughing together.
Chao Jianxue ate another pearl and bit it hard, and shivered again because of the cold. He stood up and left the table alone.
Snow fell heavily, and he left the main peak and went to the moon viewing platform.
Ming Qianli and Qianli Sword were officially combined, and it could already be transformed into the shape of a sword. He was very comfortable using it, so he simply used Ming Qianli from then on.
The sword shadow was as bright as snow, illuminating his own eyebrows. Chao Jianxue
blew the falling snow on the sword, picked up the sword, and practiced swordsmanship.
Spin, strike, stab, bend... He practiced this for dozens of times without stopping, and the heat melted the snow foam on his eyelashes and condensed it into water droplets.
Chao Jianxue was satisfied with the practice until his wrist was numb, and Ming Qianli obediently wrapped his arm again.
He turned to go down the viewing platform, but saw a man holding an umbrella standing below the platform, and he didn't know how long he had been watching.
The brim of the umbrella was raised, and Chao Jianxue sneezed.
Yu Wei said, "I wanted to come here to practice sword, but I didn't expect Senior Brother to be here."
This boy's manners were outrageous.
Chao Jianxue was speechless: "I came out to practice sword because I was upset. Weren't you chatting happily with them?"
"Why were you upset, Senior Brother?"
"You ask even though you know the answer." Chao Jianxue walked down and passed by him.
The plain umbrella covered his head, and Chao Jianxue was stunned. He looked up and saw the black plum blossom fluttering.
"What others say is their own business, Senior Brother, don't mind it."
Yu Wei was actually concerned about him? Chao
Jianxue looked up with a puzzled look, and felt that he was illuminated by the light emitted by a fairy again.
He sneered: "Of course I know, but I am narrow-minded and I just feel uncomfortable after hearing it. You won't understand."
Yu Wei's holy face did not change. Chao Jianxue avoided his umbrella and walked into the snow alone, waving at him: "I'm going back to Qingxuezhu."
"Brother!" Yu Wei called him.
Chao Jianxue turned back patiently and saw a jade porcelain bottle suddenly appear in his hand.
"The finale of the banquet just now, the rare Lingquan wine, please get rid of the cold."
Based on the principle of not giving up for nothing, Chao Jianxue took it, and it was still hot.
He curled his lips and said, "Thank you."
Yu Wei's umbrella tilted a little towards him again. Chao Jianxue crossed his arms, wondering if he would say those useless words of persuasion.
Unexpectedly, Yu Wei's expression was indifferent, but a square box wrapped in flower and grass paper appeared in his palm.
Chao Jianxue was startled, and the defensive posture he had originally taken also relaxed, and he lowered his head to look.
Yu Wei said, "It's the incense burner I bought in Shuiyue Valley that day. I was going to give it to my senior brother, but I hesitated for a while and delayed it."
Chao Jianxue was flattered and took the box. It was heavy, and his mood suddenly became happy.
He hugged the box tightly and couldn't stop laughing: "Look at you... Oh, my junior brother is really thoughtful."
The original haze was swept away. He picked out a spiritual tool from his golden ring with great interest and stuffed it into Yu Wei's hand: "Take it! It's rude not to return the favor."
After thinking for a while, he stuffed him with a few more spiritual stones: "Give you another New Year's money!" It was
the first time for him to give out New Year's money, so he didn't know how much he should give. Anyway, he gave him a few more when he was happy.
Yu Wei's lips curled up, and his eyes were dotted with joy. He suddenly became lively and more likable than usual.
"Happy New Year, senior brother." He said to Chao Jianxue.
Chao Jianxue said happily, "Happy New Year! Junior Brother."
He walked back happily with the wine and the incense burner in his arms. When he looked back, Yu Wei walked up to the moon-viewing platform with a sword in his hand, his back alone. He
was really hardworking...
But... Should Yu Wei really practice swordsmanship here? Who knows if he will break through again while practicing?
He sniffed his senseless nose and shouted, "How about drinking together?"
Unexpectedly, Yu Wei agreed. The two of them sat in the small pavilion next to the moon-viewing platform and drank one mouthful after another. Chao Jianxue doubted his life.
He didn't say anything, just listened to the rustling of the flying snow, and his heart was rarely calm. It
was so calm that Chao Jianxue woke up the next day and thought he had dreamed last night. But the lotus incense burner was still on the table, so it was not a dream.
According to the rules of this day, the inner disciples were to sweep the snow, without the kind of spiritual power and magic.
The heavy snow had stopped, and Chao Jianxue came early. Mu Yuan gave him a broom and assigned him to sweep the snow on the west side of Fuxian Mountain.
He carried a broom and lazily swept down the stone steps. Occasionally, one or two squirrels appeared in the white field of vision and were driven to the nearby tall trees.
As he swept, a unique courtyard appeared at the corner.
Under the reflection of the snow, the whole residence was faintly glowing with a light blue glow. There was a copper bell hanging on the eaves, which would jingle continuously when the wind was strong.
A squirrel swooped out from his feet, climbed up the eaves along the corridor pillars, stepped on the snow layer, stood up and looked back at him vigilantly.
Chao Jianxue took a closer look and found that this residence full of the fairy spirit of its owner was Yu Wei's Qingya Residence.
However, he had never been to Yu Wei's residence.
Chao Jianxue was murmuring in his heart and swept all the way into Qingya Residence.
This place was particularly elegant. There was a small pond in the courtyard. It was now covered with snow, but when the snow was removed, two red fish under the ice were still shaking their tails.
"Junior brother?" Chao Jianxue shouted a few times in front of the door, but there was no answer.
He wanted to push the door, but when he reached out his hand, he found that there was a restriction.
People below the Nascent Soul stage were not allowed to enter. Chao Jianxue: “…” He’s awesome. He swept the snow around Qingyaju, passing by a window frame on the side where the window was half open. He peeked inside. The furnishings were extremely simple, the floor was spotless, and even the quilt was neatly folded.
Chao Jianxue suspected that there was not even a hair on his couch.
The pens and ink were neatly hung on the table, and the scroll was probably half-written, with a paperweight pressing on the side. The copper stove next to it was still emitting smoke, which was a concentration incense.
Chao Jianxue suddenly felt like a thief, and couldn’t figure out what was so good about it. He continued to sweep, sweeping the snow in Qingyaju together and rolling it into a huge snowball.
Then, after a little thought, he summoned Ming Qianli.
The sword flashed, and he carved it hastily.
A round rabbit.
In the evening, the master listened to Mu Yuan's lecture at the moon viewing platform. Yu Wei approached him under Chao Jianxue's intentional or unintentional glances and asked in a low voice: "Brother, have you been to Qingyaju?"
Chao Jianxue said in a smug tone, "I helped you clean up the snow, how about that? I also helped you add a scene, as a thank you for drinking with me last night."
Yu Wei hesitated for a moment, and said: "The bear carved by senior brother is really lifelike."
Chao Jianxue was also in doubt and did not answer.
He chose to turn his head and listen carefully to Mu Yuan's "Heavenly Way and Nature".
After about six or seven days of leisure, the inner disciples routinely went to the places under their jurisdiction in the human world to hunt.
This was Chao Jianxue's first time to go to the human world. He thought that it would be a very grand journey from the Xuanzhen world to the human world. As a result, he took the jade card, and the masters performed a ritual to open the formation, and then opened the entrance to the two worlds.
It turns out that only three Mahayana stages are needed to open the formation.
When he stepped on the ground, Chao Jianxue was quite unbelievable. Just like that, he came to the human world?
Looking up, the cold sun was hanging high in the sky, and it was midwinter.
The area under the jurisdiction of Fuxian Mountain was in the north of the human world. Among the towering mountains, they could only see a yellow bamboo forest with bamboo leaves drooping.
Chao Jianxue immediately realized the difference between the human world and the Xuanzhen world. The spiritual energy here was much thinner. Therefore, it was much more difficult to become a demon or an immortal in the human world than in the Xuanzhen world.
Nanshan took out the compass, and the needle on the disk turned and divided into several directions.
"Qiu Shui and I will take care of the northwest, and how about asking Junior Brother and Senior Brother Chao to take care of the southeast?"
Nanshan and Qiu Shui had the best tacit understanding, and the two of them were always tied together when going out on missions.
Chao Jianxue had no objection, and stood up and walked to the right of the bamboo forest.
After walking for a while, he asked Yu Wei: "
Why is there no one here?"
Yu Wei said: "This place is remote, and only hunters come and go. It's winter now, and few hunters go up the mountain. But further south is the Juling Kingdom, and you can see the city on the top of the mountain."
"Junior brother, have you been here many times?"
"After the Jindan, I often come here. Four or five months in the Xuanzhen Realm is one year in the human world. It was still spring here when I last hunted."
"Huh--" Chao Jianxue had a question, "Has the human world always been like this? Aren't there any things like four-wheeled automatic carriages?"
Yu Wei was puzzled.
Chao Jianxue understood, it was indeed a world that did not follow proper logic.
At this time, the monster-hunting card in Yu Wei's hand vibrated, and the two looked at each other and hurried in the direction indicated.
