At noon on the second day, the long-awaited "treasure exchange meeting" that all the disciples had been waiting for finally began.
Everyone brought out all kinds of strange or extremely precious objects, including makeup and jewelry that are most sought after by famous ladies, as well as precious jewelry and weapons. Some ingenious people brought rabbits and kittens.
Waiting for cute pets.
After scanning around, Yuan Zhaoxi showed little interest. On the one hand, the things they brought out were really not eye-catching. The cosmetics and jewelry were not as good as those produced by the Taoist sect. The jewelry and weapons had no spiritual power at all. Even though the cute pets were cute, they were not as good as those in Kaiyang Palace.
Spiritual beast.
On the other hand, the real target of this "treasure exchange party" has yet to take the bait.
Yuan Chaoxi narrowed her eyes and pretended to glance casually. Tan Zhenzhen, who was watching reservedly on the side, couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He used Peiyuan Pill to attract Tan Zhenzhen into the urn and let her lure Bailiming into the game. Bailiming would be more likely to fall in love, and Bailiming would be more likely to fall in love.
To create a rift between two people is to kill two birds with one stone.
But seeing that the other party still didn't come forward, Yuan Chaoxi rolled his eyes and immediately assumed a posture of hesitating and preparing to choose something. At this moment, Tan Zhenzhen finally lost his composure and stepped forward to hand over a book with a cover.
There are three big characters written on it: "The Story of Yingying".
Yuan Chaoxi raised his eyelids, suppressed his excitement, and asked lazily: "What book is this?"
Tan Zhenzhen smiled and briefly explained the content of the book.
Yuan Chaoxi looked interested and nodded frequently while listening. Before Tan Zhenzhen finished speaking, she interrupted: "Okay, that's it, but I have one condition."
She asked Tan Zhenzhen to come forward and whisper a few words in her ear.
After hearing this, Tan Zhenzhen felt hesitant and puzzled for a while.
…
At this time, there were several people standing in twos and threes in the courtyard of the teaching building. Baili Ming was talking to Cui Bingwen and Niu Erhu. None of the three people went to participate in the "treasure exchange meeting".
Needless to say, Bai Liming was not short of this elixir, and he always felt that Yuan Chaoxi was a little hostile to him, so he was unwilling to ask for trouble.
Niu Erhu felt that even with his own family, he couldn't get anything valuable, so he gave up on his own initiative.
But Cui Bingwen was arrogant and couldn't stand the arrogant behavior of the Taoist heir, so he simply didn't join in the fun.
Zuo Sisi on the other side, a slightly lonely person, leaned on the pillar of the corridor, looking up at the sky in boredom. All the friends who usually gathered around him were attending the "treasure exchange party" at this time.
.
Zuo Sisi's face was full of anger, and she cursed in her heart that these people were all people who wanted to follow people's influence, but she didn't want to lose her grace and stopped them from participating. Firstly, it seemed that she was not brave enough, and secondly, everyone would not listen, and instead let herself
Lost face.
Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh in my heart: "People die for money, and birds die for food. In the face of interests, don't overestimate your relationship with anyone. Friendship, love, and even family ties are just clouds."
At this moment, Tan Zhenzhen's eyes wandered, pausing for a moment on Bai Liming's figure, then looking at the jade bottle containing the Peiyuan Pill, and finally nodded and agreed.
The stone in Yuan Zhaoxi's heart finally fell to the ground, and she looked at Bailiming with a wicked smile...
During class, Tan Zhenzhen gently placed a book in front of Bai Liming, saying that he was returning the book, but there was an obvious hint in his eyes.
After Tan Zhenzhen left, Baili Ming quietly opened the book, and a note came into view: "Tomorrow evening, I will discuss something with you at the old place."
Bailiming couldn't help but smile, glanced at the beautiful figure, and closed the book with understanding.
…
On the evening of the next day, there were sunset glows burning like flames in the sky, clusters one by one, shining golden light under the reflection of the sun.
Baili Ming came as requested. At this time, there was a faint mist at the edge of the forest, and there was a faint brilliance against the setting sun.
Tan Zhenzhen's pretty figure looked a little blurry in the light, and she turned around and disappeared.
Baili Ming's heart tightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward and entered the mist and brilliance. Between the blurred glow, it felt like he had entered another world.
When he was confused, suddenly, a beautiful tiger appeared in the woods, grinning with a ferocious look.
Baili Ming was so frightened that he took a few steps back. The tiger roared loudly and stared at him, ready to pounce.
Baili Ming didn't have time to think about it, so he grabbed a dead branch on the ground and placed it in front of him. Although he was frightened, he didn't panic. He quickly thought about how to deal with it.
But the tiger did not pounce, but moved sideways, as if looking for Baili Ming's weakness. One person and one tiger, big eyes staring at small eyes, the atmosphere was tense for a moment.
Suddenly, Baili Ming's eyes flashed, stars flashed, and he finally saw clearly that this tiger was just an illusion. No wonder it hesitated to move forward, it seemed to be just an illusion.
I was determined in my heart, and I was about to use starlight to explore the illusion, but suddenly I thought: "Who set up this environment to trap me? Could it be that someone discovered the secret of starlight and tested themselves?"
Thinking of this, Bai Liming's mentality slowly calmed down: "You can't use starlight." He kept reminding himself, "But how to break through this environment?"
After careful consideration, this illusion is not complicated, and it is full of loopholes. It seems to be just a basic illusion array that confuses mortals. It is not difficult to detect it. You only need to strengthen your senses to see clearly.
Bailiming sat cross-legged and began to use the meditation luck method in "Tongxuan Jing", gradually entering an ethereal state.
In the dense forest in the distance, Yuan Chaoxi was watching with his feet up. He was shocked when he saw Bailiming entering the illusion formation, and was secretly happy in his heart. However, he did not expect that he was not panicked, but remained motionless.
So relaxed, I couldn’t help but feel anxious.
The side chief beside him couldn't see clearly what was going on in the phantom formation and kept asking. Yuan Chaoxi could not help but complain: "Your magic formation is not very reliable. Although it was temporarily trapped, more than half an hour has passed.
Why hasn’t Li Ming fallen into the trap yet?”
Bian Chang comforted him confidently: "Chao Xi, don't worry. Even if he is calm now, when he is unable to get out of the illusion, sooner or later he will panic. In the panic, he will definitely fall into the trap."
"It's getting late, how about we go back first and wait until tomorrow to see how miserable he is?"
Yuan Chaoxi accepted this statement doubtfully, and seeing that it was indeed getting late, he returned to Kaiyang Palace with everyone.
At this time, Bai Liming was concentrating on improving his perception, breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and circulating the heaven and earth. He found that the effect was not significant. He pondered for a moment and silently recited the "Hanguang Sutra" taught by Yuan Jinsheng.
"Containing light and hiding brilliance, regardless of the tiredness of the world. The body is in harmony with nature, transcending the world... The refreshing heart is the soul. The Qi is the prosperity of the spirit..."
As the scriptures were recited, the spiritual energy slowly began to circulate in the body. After a while, the spiritual energy continued to surge like ocean waves, one wave higher than the next. The seven orifices were filled with mana, and they were as swollen as an inflated rubber ball.
.
The spiritual energy circulated between the seven orifices faster and faster. Suddenly, with a pop, the spiritual energy spurted out from the seven orifices, and then quickly contracted. In an instant, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured in along the seven orifices.
As the spiritual energy filled his body, Baili Ming was slightly panicked, but he soon calmed down. He chanted the magic formula to guide the spiritual energy to circulate smoothly in his body, and his five senses slowly began to become clearer.
The low roar of the colorful tigers just now gradually faded away, and what came to my ears was the rustle of the wind blowing through the woods. The rustle became louder and louder, mixed with the chirping of insects, which sounded like thunder in the sky.
Explosion.
Baili Ming's ears were buzzing, accompanied by waves of dizziness and blood boiling. He endured the discomfort and slowly collected his mind, and the loud sound gradually subsided.
Taking a long breath, Bailiming tried to listen far away. He heard the rhythmic splash of the lake water on the shore, the flapping of waterbirds flying against the water, and even the flapping of fish jumping out of the water.
The sound is also clearly audible.
Slowly opening his eyes, the surrounding scenery was as clear as day. Bai Liming picked up the fallen leaves on the ground, and the blood vessel-like veins and dark green colors came into view.
Looking around, the illusion was only within a radius of ten feet, with formation flags at the four corners, and the tiger was where the formation eye was, and a palm-sized formation disk was hidden in the grass nest.
There is a pit about ten feet behind him, which is as deep as one person. There are no sharp knives in the pit, but it is just covered with mud.
Seeing this, Bai Liming was puzzled. After entering the Taoist gate, he had always been humble to others and worked in a low-key manner. After thinking about it, he had never offended anyone. Who dug a hole for him?
After thinking about it, I have no clue, but the anger in my heart is getting stronger and stronger. I can't just let it go, otherwise the other party will treat me as a soft persimmon and take advantage of it.
An idea flashed in his mind: "Yes, let's do it this way, treat the person in his own way."
Bailiming started to run back and forth and got busy, holding some hay and branches to play with, pulling off strands of cloth from the corner of his clothes, and bringing some dry soil to spread on it.
Fan......
Less than half an hour later, Bai Liming finally stopped, looked at his results, checked them carefully, nodded with satisfaction, patted the dust on his hands, and walked towards his residence with the flag array in his arms.
