After settling everything, Zhang Ke went back to the room to get the book box.
Traveling all the way to the foot of Zuowang Peak, the Xiantian Yiqi Sect prepares twenty-two disciples to learn various skills.
Therefore, a multi-functional Dharma transmission building was built at the foot of Zuowang Peak.
The building is divided into Bagua, and disciples can enter from eight different directions according to their study subjects. It is called "Dayan Academy".
But when viewed from above, the whole building looks like a giant gossip.
When it was first built, some sect disciples praised it when they were looking up and down the mountain: What a Bagua array, and then word spread slowly.
This building was built eight hundred years ago to facilitate the entrance and exit of the disciples.
However, with continuous development, the floors have gradually increased from the original four floors to the current twenty-one floors.
And it is expected to continue to increase in the future. Every time the floors are expanded, the sect's great monks will be required to cooperate with the sect's disciples to use magical powers to expand.
It has been expanded three times from 800 years ago to the present. Each expansion is a great test for the sect, but it is also the best demonstration of the vigorous development of the sect.
Among them, eight departments such as spells, talismans, sword cultivation, alchemy, weapon refining, planting, beast control, and astrology each occupy one floor, while the other departments occupy 12 floors.
The ground floor is the public hall, and no matter how the top floor is expanded, it must be of the astrological system.
The ground floor is an empty hall with some benches, tables and chairs in some remote locations.
Yiqi Sect has more than 2,000 prepared disciples, and they all study in the Bagua Tower.
Slowly, a trading area was formed on the ground floor to exchange goods or not.
Zhang Ke came in from the south gate and saw noisy people on the ground floor. The Talisman Academy was on the 6th floor.
Walking straight to the southeast corner, a few fellow disciples were setting up a temporary stall.
Zhang Ke glanced at it, walked quickly to a stall, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chen Ze!"
The man named Chen Ze was sorting the items on the stall.
Hearing the sound, he raised his head and said happily: "Junior brother Zhang, you are so rare!"
"Senior brother, are you busy?"
Chen Ze smiled and said: "What? Is something wrong?"
"Well, I was planning to go see you in the afternoon. I have a few items that I would like to ask my senior brother for help with!"
Chen Ze: "Say it!"
Zhang Ke explained in detail what was needed for the felling task.
Chen Ze frowned: "It's a bit late. I've taken on a lot of work these days. Let's do this! You pay a little more and I'll find someone to rush the work. It's early tomorrow morning. You can pick it up after the morning class."
"Okay, sorry for bothering you, senior brother. I sent some jars of good wine to my family a while ago. When the task is over, you can call the brother who helped me and let's sit down for a while."
After saying goodbye and leaving, Zhang Ke saw that time was running out.
Walk a few steps and arrive in front of the east gate on the ground floor. The Bagua Tower can be entered from the outside. There are eight gates in total.
But after entering the ground floor, there is no corresponding staircase to go upstairs. Instead, you enter the respective schools through various portals on the ground floor.
This design came from the time when the building was first built, when a great monk from the Talisman Sect happened to be studying the teleportation array.
Due to an operational error during research, a teleportation circle was accidentally established on the ground floor.
This array is connected to the earth's veins. It has been unable to be dismantled and moved since it was built, and it is not known what went wrong. The teleportation array on the ground floor disassembled and separated by itself, decomposing 365 teleportation gates.
But the magical thing is that every four years, there will be one more portal out of the 365.
But each time the extra location is never fixed, and even which floor it leads to is random. An extra floor is invisibly added, but this extra floor will only exist for one day.
The sect did some research and placed items here, but when they entered again four years later, they had disappeared.
Many real people in the sect have been studying it for nearly 30 years, but they still can't figure it out. Because it has no impact, it doesn't matter as time goes by.
Zhang Ke stood in front of the Zhengdong Gate. There are 12 doors in this direction leading to Fulu Academy. The doors are 3 meters high and nearly 2 meters wide.
The entire door looks like a smooth mirror from the outside. It is square and can reflect people's reflections.
When I came to a mirror, I saw a column of words written in runes on the mirror.
Question: What is the name of the founder of Shangqing Dynasty?
Zhang Ke secretly complained about the level of questioning of real people in the Talisman system, while stretching out his fingers to write in runes:
——Lingbao Tianzun!
A mist appeared on the mirror, and Zhang Ke stepped into the mirror.
I don’t know since when, I started to need to answer questions when entering the academy.
This was originally set by a real person when he accidentally set up the transmission entry and exit command in the academy hall before a certain lecture.
But this method is indeed good for learning, and it has been widely used by real lecturers and has been promoted to this day.
There are also many kinds of questions. For example, all questions and answers in Fulu Academy must be written in runes.
To others, they look like blossoming flowers and cannot be understood at all.
In the Mantra Academy, you may need to recite a mantra or draw a gesture line on the mirror.
Each subject has its own characteristics. Generally speaking, the questions are relatively simple. This is just an admission ticket.
But one day the difficulty of asking questions suddenly increases.
Congratulations: today the real person can talk about practical things, and those who are not knowledgeable enough will be blocked from the door.
Therefore, the torture of many disciples is beyond words.
Three hundred and sixty-five mirror doors are distributed on eight sides of the hall. At this time, countless disciples in Tsing Yi are entering through each mirror door, and the crowd is noisy.
Zhang Ke passed through the mirror door and went directly to the Fulu Academy Hall on the sixth floor.
The entire floor is dedicated to Fulu Academy, and only a few academies have such privileges.
One is because there are many people learning talismans, and the other is that the talismans are very useful.
There are eight Fulu Halls on the sixth floor, two of which are separate places for new and old disciples to study theory, divided into two halls: "Xuanji" and "Minghui".
The rest are functional halls that require hands-on operations, such as making talisman paper, making incense, pen and ink, and worshiping statues.
Zhang Ke walked into the "Xuanji" hall and saw nearly two hundred disciples.
Zhang Ke hurriedly found an empty seat, took out the futon from the book box and sat down, unfolded the small table and placed the four treasures.
He breathed a sigh of relief and saw the people around him. Some were chatting in low voices, while others were reading Taoist books and studying alone.
Zhang Ke looked at the podium and saw a relief sculpture of a boy seeking enlightenment on the front wall, showing its true color of blue and gray.
In the corner of the wall, there is a bronze crane standing on one leg, with wings spread out and about to fly. There is a dark spot of sandalwood in its belly, which floats out from the crane's mouth.
A desk was placed in the middle of the podium, and a set of tea sets were placed on top of the desks, but nothing else.
Looking at the situation on the field, Zhang Ke's eyes wandered, immersed in the past.
Zhang Ke didn't know how big the world was, and the real person who taught the class never explained it in detail.
All I know is that the land under my feet belongs to the Eastern Region, the main gathering place for human races.
It is roughly distributed in the land of Jiuzhou, divided into Ji, Ding, Lai, Guang, Qing, Yan, Qiong, Hai and Zhongzhou. This is a fertile land.
Each of the nine major sects in the Eastern Region has a town. There is no unified dynasty in the world. They all use cities as the standard unit. There are roughly more than 800 cities in total.
Each state has more or less cities, and each city has about six counties. Each county has towns and villages.
In addition, there are many dangerous places where it is difficult for ordinary people to survive. There are also many scattered human beings living on islands, deserts or places that are difficult to reach for culture and education.
As for outside the Eastern Region, that is not something I have to consider.
