Thanks to Lord Huangzhigang and Bobo for their rewards.

Since the first formation was set up in Luo Family Manor, Zhao Ran's understanding of formations has been no more than a little higher than that of ordinary people at the starting point, because he opened his eyes of the sky and was able to concentrate on observing the operation of the qi machine in the world. Therefore, when Huayun Pavilion later awarded him the "Five Elements Divine Array Collection", he had already adjusted the formation without realizing it in the actual drill and arranged it in combination with the operation of the qi machine.

But because his understanding of Taoism was blank, he respected the basic structure of the Five Elements Divine Array in the layout of the formation. He neither dared nor thought of breaking out of this framework and making subversive changes. Sometimes he even doubted whether he would change the arrangement of the formation without authorization. Today, with Zhu Qigu's guidance, Zhao Ran immediately saw the blue sky like a cloud and mist, and a brand new formation world appeared in front of him.

Zhao Ran was amazed and flattered Zhu Qigu: "Sister, you are really modest. You are clearly well-versed in formations, but you have to say that you are not good at it... My admiration for you is like a surging river, continuous, and like a flood of a river, it is out of control!"

Zhu Qigu smiled and said, "You little flattery, there are many flattering words... But I like it very much!" After laughing, he said seriously: "I am not humble with you. I am not good at formations, but it is true. Although I have opened the sky eye, I am not as clever as you have become. I can see the general appearance of the qi, but I can't tell the difference between the movements. If you want to go further, you can only go to the next level of cultivation. I can set up a formation, but I have to go to the formation.

If you have achieved something, in addition to observing the qi of heaven and earth, you must study the meaning and principles carefully, the harmony of Tai Chi, the mutual assistance of yin and yang, the three talents to revive, the four symbols to prove the metaphor, the five elements to be born and defeated, the six elements to revive, the seven stars to change, the eight trigrams, and the nine palaces to transform, all of which are huge and complex knowledge. You have no perseverance or the perseverance to complete, and you are not afraid of telling you a joke. I don’t even have the patience to read many basic Taoist scriptures. I will be really dead when I ask me to study these things hard."

Zhao Ran nodded, and he had a deep understanding of this. Just a book called "The Essence of the Five Elements Divine Array", which only involves the various knowledges of the five elements' generation and restraint, made Zhao Ran suffer a lot.

In Taoist scriptures, there are no books that specialize in systematic analysis of the principles of the five elements of generation and restraint. These knowledge are mixed in various scriptures, such as "Huangdi Yin Fu Jing", "Zhou Yi Shen Tongqi", "Taixuan Sutra", "Huang Ji Sutra", "Baopuzi Shenxian Sutra", "Taishang Huangting Inside and Outside Jade Jing Sutra", etc. In particular, many things are only in the annotations, interpretations, and comments of various scriptures, and the number of these annotations, interpretations, and comments is much greater than that of this sutra, and it is difficult to read them thoroughly, let alone memorize them. As for understanding, everyone has their own ideas, and there is no unified standard at all. The root of these different standards comes from the mysterious and mysterious Four Sons' Sutras.

Fortunately, he has a great memory and can quickly recall this knowledge from various scriptures to compare them, and screen them one by one based on the specific situation, and understand them thoroughly. Only in this way can he master the twenty-five formations mentioned in "Zhuangyao" in the shortest time. If it were someone else, he would have probably been drowned in the vast Taoist scriptures as smoke as smoke.

Zhu Qigu laughed at herself: "So, how do I say it in the formation? Well, according to others, I can't get on the table."

Zhao Ran immediately supported: "Sister, based on what you said just now, your understanding of formation is far more than that of others. Who dares to say that you can't get on the table? This person is really arrogant!"

Zhu Qigu poked Zhao Ran's forehead and smiled and said, "Don't just try to flatter me and please me. It's not arrogant. He is really capable - he is standing at the top of the formation!"

Zhao Ran was very curious and asked, "Is it Master Chu?"

Zhu Qigu shook his head: "Master often says that there are thousands of knowledge and thousands of Taoism in the world. You must not be confused and become greedy. The purpose of practice is to achieve immortality, seek great freedom and freedom. You only need to study the ultimate level of one Tao and naturally realize the Tao. Otherwise, after a hundred years, you will only have to drink and hate. His energy is all on this, so how can he have time to study other methods?"

These principles seem simple, but for Brother Chu like Zhao Ran, who has no one to guide him - in fact, he is not even Brother Chu, but it is an extremely rare guide. Zhao Ran sat by the bonfire and listened to Zhu Qigu explaining his understanding of Taoism and her experience in facing the enemy. Before he knew it, it was already three o'clock in the night.

Zhao Ran was just as he was impressed when he suddenly saw Zhu Qigu frowning slightly, and then snorted coldly: "To the west, half a mile away, the third big tree."

Zhao Ran was stunned. Before he could react, the fourth senior brother had disappeared suddenly, and there was only a afterimage left at the entrance of the cave. Looking at him in a blink of an eye, he was more than ten feet away, and he suddenly left the vision of the entrance of the cave, and his figure was like a ghost.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

"You little guy, you dare to peek at night, and I don't know where you got the courage!"

Zhao Ran quickly got up, walked quickly to the entrance of the cave, and looked towards the direction where the fourth senior brother was away. Because it was in the dark and under the valley, Zhao Ran couldn't see it very clearly with his eyesight, and he could only vaguely see a tree shaking.

After a while, a dazzling white light suddenly rose in that direction. With this white light, Zhao Ran saw the fourth senior brother standing on the treetop, holding the big sword in his right hand, and holding a golden bowl on his left palm.

The white light disappeared in a flash. After a moment, the fourth senior brother slid out of the night and slowly returned to the cave.

Mr. Tong was still lying in the corner of the cave wall, but he was awake and asked, "How?"

The fourth senior brother threw the golden bowl on the ground with a gloomy face and said, "Run away."

Mr. Tong asked again: "Buddhist Monk?"

The fourth senior brother nodded, returned to the entrance of the cave, and continued to sit in his arms with his sword, not knowing what he was thinking.

The bonfire was beating and shining on the golden bowl, but the golden bowl showed a strange blue light.

Zhao Ran squatted down and was about to pick up the golden bowl and take it carefully, but Zhu Qigu stopped him: "Don't move, it's poisonous, it's not something you can touch!"

Zhao Ran was startled and quickly shrank his hand. Seeing that the old general Tong had thrown the wine gourd, Zhu Qigu reached out to catch it, first let Zhao Ran take a few steps, and then poured a few drops of yellow and orange wine into the golden bowl. The wine dripped onto the golden bowl, and immediately made a "sizzling" sound, and frying out a trace of smoke like pouring oil in the water.

Zhu Qigu sneered, "What a thief!" He waved his sleeves, wrapped the smoke into a ball, and sent it out of the cave.

After the poison was removed, Zhu Qigu waved and put away the golden bowl, grabbed it in his hand and played for a while, and threw it to Zhao Ran, saying, "I have erased the mark of the owner in the golden bowl, so you can use it to play. If you don't have Buddhist techniques, you can't open the magical power of this golden bowl, but this object is cast by a good magnetic mother gold body, which can resist erosion of magic power. When you encounter danger, it is also good to take it out to resist one or two. It is also good when you are a shield."

Zhao Ran took the golden bowl with both hands, and felt his arm sinking and almost fell to the ground.

Zhu Qigu said again: "The magnetic mother gold fetus is produced in the heart of Xia Guohai Mountain. The fetal heart can change its shape and size at will. Although the magnetic mother gold fetus used in this golden bowl is a scrap material, it also has a little charm. If you move the handle, there is a trick..."

Zhao Ran hurriedly turned the golden bowl over and checked the handle. Sure enough, he saw a plucking spring. He moved the plucking spring inward. The golden bowl suddenly contracted, and in an instant, the golden bracelet changed from the size of the round basin to three fingers wide, which was just right to put on his wrist!

Unexpectedly, Zhao Ran was overjoyed after getting such a good baby. He secretly looked at the fourth senior brother at the entrance of the cave. Zhu Qigu smiled and said, "Please keep it. The fourth senior brother only likes to use swords, and the rest is not in his heart... The eldest senior brother has so many treasures in the wine gourd. Although the golden bowl is good, he is not bad for this one."

Zhao Ran quickly agreed embarrassedly, thanked Mr. Tong and the fourth senior brother respectfully, and sat aside to fiddle with the golden bowl. As for Zhu Qigu, he didn't need to say anything to thank him, that would be too disgusting.
