Everyone went by boat, and when they came back, Zhang Yuze's heart light enveloped everyone, and they were back on the coast in just an instant.
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, crossing a long distance in an instant. This was an experience they had never had before in their lives. Now, they would be able to brag about it when they returned.
At this time, someone looked back and exclaimed: "Look, the island is gone."
The man surnamed Lan also turned around and saw that the island figure had disappeared. He said with a hint of regret: "It's gone."
Zhang Yudao: "This island shouldn't be here, it just stood because of things. Now that things are taken away, they will return to the place they belong to. Just like a kite in the sky, driven by the strong wind, it will fly away when the rope is broken.
And go."
The village elder arranged for someone to come to the beach, and everyone who asked questions returned and immediately led people to rush over. When the people in the village heard the news, they also came to watch the fun, standing in the distance and pointing.
The village elder rushed forward and saw that everyone was fine. He felt relieved and said: "Shangxiu, Hu Shangli, you came back quickly. I thought it would take two or three days at the latest."
The village elder's son said: "Father, we just stayed on the island for three days."
The village elder glared at him and said, "What three days? I've only been back for two summers, and I think you've lost your mind."
The people behind the village elder all agreed, "Yes, it's just Xiaobantian." "That's not necessarily true. I heard that the island is quite evil. Don't you think it's evil?"
Hu Wenli and others all had strange looks on their faces.
The village elder's son was an upright person and said unconvinced: "But we clearly spent three days on the island!"
Hu Wenli was also a little worried. He whispered to Zhang Yu: "We feel that it has indeed been three days. Patrolling, isn't there something wrong?"
Zhang Yudao: "Don't worry, it's just that your senses are wrong. There is nothing evil in you."
Hu Wenli said: "The patrol is saying that, but in fact it's just that our perception is different?"
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "That's true."
Hu Wenli sighed: "What a pity."
Zhang Yudao: "What's the pity?"
Hu Wenli sighed: "If the island still exists, we can use it to study and study. One day can be used as three days. I don't know how much more we can learn."
Zhang Yu said calmly: "This thing is related to the evil god. If you want to get benefits, it is never without cost, so there is no need to regret it."
Hu Wenli was startled, thought for a while, and said seriously: "Xuanzheng is right, I am greedy, but I am still a civil servant in the government office. I should copy the articles on moral cultivation of officials ten times when I go back, and reflect on myself.
"
While he was talking, the man surnamed Lan pulled out a child of about ten years old from the crowd. He looked very strong and said: "Shangxiu, this is my grandson, named Lan Xu." He looked after the child and said: "Call someone.
.”
The child said obediently: "Shang Xiu."
The man surnamed Lan said carelessly: "Shang Xiu, from now on this kid will be handed over to the senior cultivator. You can beat or scold him if you want."
Zhang Yu glanced at the child for a few times and saw that his aptitude was ordinary and no different from ordinary people. If he followed the path of spiritual cultivation, it would be difficult to pass the Xinguang test. However, this child, like his father, had a special feature.
, then maybe we can take other paths.
He nodded and said, "Okay, let him follow me first."
The man surnamed Lan patted the child on the back and gestured forward, and the child came over and stood beside Zhang Yu obediently.
Zhang Yu glanced at him, turned to Hu Wenli and said, "Hu Zhuanwen, thank you for your help in this matter."
Hu Wenli hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Xuan Zheng, my subordinates are actually not of any help." He hesitated for a moment and said, "I wonder if I can make a request to Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu lowered his head and said, "But it doesn't matter."
Hu Wenli said: "Now there are monastic schools in Qianzhou and Shaozhou, and if we students in Qizhou want to study, we have to cross the two states, which is too far. I just saw that Xuanzheng accepted that Lan boy as his master."
Student, I wonder if Xuanzheng can send some monks here to teach Taoism. I am willing to persuade the people in the state to pay for the construction of the academy. The annual expenses do not need to be paid by the Xuanfu, but can be borne by the state."
He paused and then said: "We in Qizhou are close to the sea. Many people make a living by going out to sea to fish. They often go deep into the sea and sometimes encounter some monsters. If you can learn some Taoism, those can also
If you have the ability to protect yourself, you don’t need to spend a lot of money to hire those sergeants to garrison you every year.”
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "If the Qizhou Yamen Office is willing to build the academy by itself, then the matter will be simple. After I return, I will arrange for suitable people to come here to teach Taoism."
Hu Wenli was overjoyed and cupped his hands and said: "Then I will thank Xuanzheng for the people of the state."
Zhang Yu got the things and didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he said goodbye to everyone. Then he lowered his eyes and said to Lan Xu beside him: "Close your eyes."
Lan Xu closed his eyes obediently.
Then he felt his body floating up. After an unknown amount of time, his feet landed on the ground, and he heard a voice in his ears: "Open your eyes."
He opened his eyes and found that he was already in a strange manor, with a look of curiosity on his face.
Zhang Yu led him into the main hall. Qing Mo came up to greet him, bowed and said: "Sir."
Zhang Yudao: "This is my new student. He doesn't know much now. Take him down and let Qingshu teach him something first."
Xuan Xiu is not like real cultivation. The relationship between teacher and student is not a master-student relationship. Xuan Xiu never talks about the rules of treating a teacher like a father.
The other person was his student just in name, and he didn't need to come in person to teach Taoism and knowledge.
And before that, you must first study. If you can't even read well, how can you practice Taoism?
An Zhizhi was able to directly teach him the breathing method because he was able to build a small flying boat at the age of twelve. He was a rare child prodigy, and the two were incomparable.
After Qing Mo agreed, he took Lan Xu's little hand and led him down.
Zhang Yuze returned to the secret room of the manor and carefully set up several protective and defensive formations outside.
This time things happened extremely smoothly, incredibly smoothly. It seemed that the thing was waiting for him to get it, so he had to take certain precautions.
After arranging it, he took out the golden box that was about a foot long and placed it on the desk.
Then he reached out and slowly opened the lid of the box. There was a layer of bright woven fabric inside, and a vague outline of a human figure was revealed underneath.
He took off the cloth, and what was revealed underneath was a fat, white, sleeping baby with a delicate face.
His eyes were closed, six chubby little hands were clasped together and resting on his belly, and his body was wrapped in a soft gray cloth.
But he could tell that this thing looked like a living person, but it was actually carved out of some unknown species of wood.
The most important thing is that he felt a surge of heat from the wooden statue, but the heat did not spread out, but was completely enclosed within the body of the statue.
He stared at the object for a moment, then took out the gold-sealing ring, then loosened his fingers and let the object fall onto the statue of the evil infant.
In an instant, a ray of light began to glow on the evil infant's body, and then a trace of heat leaked out from inside, but it felt very forced, as if it was squeezed out from the cracks.
He could feel that if the gold-sealing ring was withdrawn, the layer of protection outside the statue would be closed again and maintain its existence.
This was the first time he had seen such a situation.
But this does not necessarily mean that the power gods behind it are more powerful than those he has seen before. Perhaps it is because the power gods have invested more power in the statue. Perhaps this thing has experienced more than one era.
This is actually good news, indicating that there may be more source energy contained in this object.
It's just that it's not easy for him to touch this object directly, because if he does so, he will take the initiative to accept the other person, which may implicate the evil god behind it.
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw that the baby's eyes had opened at some point, and he was staring at him strangely.
He looked at her indifferently for a moment, then walked to the side, sat down, and slowly absorbed the traces of heat into his body.
But at this time, he found that his shadow on the ground slowly grew four more arms.
He knew very well that if his intentions were true or had even the slightest doubt, then such things might become true.
However, he was not moved at all. As long as the upper-level power did not penetrate directly into him, there was nothing to fear. What's more, he had Tianyi True Water to protect him. Even if Xuanzun's incarnation shot, he might not be able to defeat him in one go, let alone just one shot.
A little bit of the power of the evil god.
For the next three days, he sat here and absorbed the heat coming from it.
But he also discovered that as he sat down in front of the statue, countless strange curses came into his ears at the same time. Although it had no effect on him, he still needed to be distracted to fight against it every time. I'm afraid that in these three days
It's not even useful for half a day.
Then I'm afraid I won't be able to get the source energy contained in this object for several months, so we must find a way to suppress it here.
He thought about it and realized that he could avoid the power of evil gods by going to the Lingmiao Mysterious Realm, but he had a better place in mind.
After thinking about it, he stood up, closed the golden box again, came out of the secret room, walked directly out of the manor, and then jumped into the air, leaving the mainland in an instant and heading towards the southern wilderness.
Not long after he flew away, he landed on a low hill. His eyes were inquiring for a while, and his figure flashed to a clearing. He stopped for a moment, then fell down, sinking to the ground silently.
Entering a huge underground cavity, there is boundless evil energy surging around here.
You can see that at the end of the front, there is a large jade plate erected, with a vague figure tied to it, and two rivers of black and red evil spirits rolling beside it.
This is the place where Patriarch Yuantong was imprisoned!
Not only are there these evil spirits here, but there are also restrictions imposed by the Xuanfu at the beginning, which prevent even the power of Ancestor Yuantong from being released, and even the power of the evil god cannot penetrate at all.
Here he took out the gold box again, let it float in front of him, and then removed the lid. But at some point, the evil infant's eyes opened again, and now they were staring at him.
He looked at it calmly, then raised his hand and pressed it.
