"Wanjuan Pavilion" is located in the center of Qingyunping as a library containing various immortal cultivation books.
Seen from a distance, although this "Wanjuan Pavilion" does not appear tall and luxurious, there is a heaviness in it that makes every Yi Yunmen disciple passing by stop and admire it for a moment.
At this moment, a figure in gray robe was standing outside the gate of Wanjuan Pavilion.
I looked up at the plaque in the middle. The words "Wanjuan Pavilion" did not have the carvings of iron paintings and silver hooks, nor were they graceful and graceful, nor were they written in ancient Chinese to reveal a sense of antiquity.
Just three simple words, conveying a faint momentum, made the figure take a deep breath.
"Boom, boom, boom~" He went up to the steps and knocked on the closed door.
After waiting for half a stick of incense, there was a "creak~" sound, and the door of the pavilion opened, revealing an old Taoist dressed in green. It was Xiang Fanchen, the inner disciple of Qingyunping who manages Wanjuan Pavilion.
"Hey~, why is it you?" Xiang Laodao looked at the figure in front of the door and asked with a slightly confused tone.
The person outside this door is none other than Yin Xiuxuan, and he came here precisely to copy the book "Introduction to Weapon Refining".
Raising his hand in salute, Yin Xiuxuan smiled slightly and said, "Yin Xiuxuan has met Senior Brother Xiang!"
He nodded to the old Taoist, but was not prepared to open the door. He drooped his eyelids and said with a sleepy look on his face: "Junior brother, what are you doing here!"
Yin Xiuxuan took out the jade slip from his storage bag, raised his hand and handed it over, saying: "Junior brother is here to copy the classics on cultivating immortals."
Xiang Laodao looked at the jade slip, but did not take it. Instead, he looked up at Yin Xiuxuan, nodded, and said with a faint smile: "Good boy, I didn't expect you to get this reward!"
"It's just a coincidence that made senior brother laugh!" Yin Xiuxuan said with a sneer.
"Here, come in!" Xiang Laodao opened a gap, pointed, and let Yin Xiuxuan in.
Entering the pavilion, Xiang Laodao closed the door behind him. When Yin Xiuxuan saw it, he couldn't help but wonder: "Brother Xiang, why did you close the door of the pavilion? Why don't you open the door today?"
Xiang Laodao curled his lips, but did not answer immediately. He put his hands behind his back and shuffled towards the inner room. After walking a few steps, he heard a voice: "Lao Dao is not feeling well today, so naturally he won't open the door!"
When Yin Xiuxuan heard this, he smiled bitterly. He managed the Wanjuan Pavilion anyway, so naturally he could not allow himself to interrupt, so he followed without saying anything.
When he came to the inner room, Xiang Laodao stood in front of the screen and pointed inside, "Go ahead and copy whatever you want. After copying, leave early!"
Yin Xiu
alright.
Taking the jade slip, Yin Xiuxuan went out of the inner room, thanked Xiang Laodao and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, the old Taoist stretched out his hand to stop Yin Xiuxuan.
"Brother, why is this?"
Shaking his head, Xiang Laodao squinted at Yin Xiuxuan and said, "Show me!"
Yin Xiuxuan didn't know the reason, so he stared at the old Taoist for a long time, and then reluctantly handed over the jade slip.
Xiang Laodao took the jade slip, put it between his eyebrows and looked at it, then smacked his lips and said: ""Introduction to Weapon Refining", tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to choose such a book."
Xiang Laodao said these words so calmly that Yin Xiuxuan could not detect any emotion in them.
"How is it?" The old Taoist held the jade slip in his hand and had no intention of returning it to Yin Xiuxuan. Instead, he suddenly said.
"What?" Yin Xiuxuan was stunned for a moment.
"I want this jade slip!" Xiang Laodao said it calmly.
"What!" Yin Xiuxuan was not only stunned now, but also surprised and slightly angry.
Xiang Laodao had no consciousness that he had said something he shouldn't have said. He was still half awake and weighed the jade slips in his hands a few times, "How about two copies?"
"What!" Yin Xiuxuan, who was half confused and half angry, was now completely confused.
"Two books for this one!"
"Hmm~, two copies for one!" Yin Xiuxuan seemed to have thought of a possibility, but asked in disbelief.
"That's right, two copies for one, shall we?" Xiang Laodao finally lost his temper.
Yin Xiuxuan finally confirmed this guess, nodded repeatedly and said: "Change, change!"
Xiang Laodao took out a booklet from his sleeve, threw it to Yin Xiuxuan, and said, "You choose it yourself!" After saying that, he took out a jade slip and placed it between his eyebrows together with Yin Xiuxuan's "Introduction to Weapon Refining".
With this posture, Yin Xiuxuan knew that the old Taoist must be copying his "Introduction to Weapon Refining".
Holding this booklet, Yin Xiuxuan was not polite and immediately flipped through it. Just as he thought, it contained a book title, with a brief introduction to each book written on it.
He looked up at Xiang Laodao who was still copying the jade slips. Yin Xiuxuan had surprise written all over his face. Just now he took a quick look and saw that this small book actually contained nearly a hundred books.
Regardless of formations, talismans, exercises, spells, and even miscellaneous books, although they are not all available, they at least account for most of the titles that Yin Xiuxuan has read, and they are included in most of them.
This Xiang Laodao is just an ordinary inner disciple. Except for his age and appearance, there is nothing special about him. How he can collect so many books, Yin Xiuxuan is a little confused.
Seeing that the old Taoist was still copying the jade slips, Yin Xiuxuan did not want to disturb him and began to read the titles and introductions of various books carefully.
After waiting for the stick of incense to burn, Xiang Laodao opened his eyes, took down the jade slip, looked at Yin Xiuxuan who was still reading the title of the book, and said, "Have you found it yet?"
"Well, it's decided!"
"Which two copies do you want?"
Yin Xiuxuan shook his head and said: "Brother Xiang, junior brother, all the books I have now are enough to practice cultivation for a while. I haven't decided what books I want for the time being. Can you allow me to come to my senior brother to ask for them when I make a decision later?"
"Hmm~" Xiang Laodao was about to take out the jade slips. Hearing Yin Xiuxuan's words, he looked at Yin Xiuxuan in surprise.
Finally, Xiang Laodao showed a strange smile on his face, chuckled, and said: "No wonder, no wonder, no wonder your kid can get this reward!"
Yin Xiuxuan looked at Xiang Laodao with burning eyes and asked, "What do you think, senior brother?"
Xiang Laodao rolled his eyes and finally said: "Okay! I will promise you that!"
Seeing the old Taoist's agreement, Yin Xiuxuan finally showed joy and saluted, "Thank you, Senior Brother Xiang!"
He waved his hand to the old Taoist and said: "No thanks, it's just a fair deal. What I want, old Taoist, is a book I don't have, and you happen to have it, so everyone takes what they need!" After saying that, he threw the jade slip back.
He waved his sleeves to Yin Xiuxuan, opened the door to the pavilion, and walked towards the inner room with his hands behind his back.
Yin Xiuxuan naturally understood the banishment, smiled slightly, walked out of the pavilion door, and closed the door behind him. Yin Xiuxuan looked at the plaque above his head again, with a meaningful smile on his face, and walked toward his yard like a seasoned man, with his hands behind his back.
