The bald-headed boy looked at Liu Wei, the next leader of the small inn.
As the personal disciple of the Xiaozhan Sect Leader, he has cultivated the Xiaozhan's Fleeting Illusionary Steps to the extreme, comparable to the Fire Escape Technique of the Fire Virtue Sect.
Moreover, their manager's ability to conceal his presence is exceptional.
"Hey, young people are so hot-tempered. But that Brother Chen Yuan seems to be quite active in the martial arts world."
Liu Wei pushed up his glasses and laughed.
Although he was inside Yinghe Tower, as a member of the Xiaozhanmen (a branch of the tower), he was naturally very well-informed, as there was a great deal of news coming and going from the north and south to Yinghe Tower.
In addition to the small inn's own channels, although he was just a small manager here, he was aware of everything happening in the world.
"Yes, that person is no ordinary person. We just received news that Mr. Sun's people have approached him in Beijing, and it seems they are about to clash with Bi Heren's people."
The bald guy chuckled.
"Oh? The Higanbana ninja? Based on the information we've received, these guys are no ordinary people!"
Liu Wei chuckled.
He was already looking forward to it.
"I heard that among the people sent by the Higoku Ninja this time is Makino Ittosai. This person killed the artifact master of Jiajia Village in one move, even though the one from Jiajia Village was not very old."
But the art of manipulating objects is no simple matter; those Japanese are extremely skilled at it!
The bald man continued.
Chapter 358 Heavenly Great Sage Talisman (First Update)
"Oh? It seems Brother Chen is in some danger."
Liu Wei adjusted his glasses and smiled.
It seems this matter is not simple.
"Manager, that's hard to say. According to our internal intelligence, Chen Yuan seems to have learned the Shenxiao Sect's thunder technique, and his strength is probably even greater than before."
The bald man coughed and said.
"Is this recent news, Leifa?"
Liu Wei immediately revealed a relaxed expression; things seemed to be getting more and more interesting.
……
Half a day later, Bianyifang.
"Brother Yuan, are you treating again today?"
Liu Deshui stared at the roast duck in front of him, drooling.
I have to say, following Brother Yuan means you get to eat nine meals a day.
He's getting more and more plump.
Although his family is well-off, it's still not as good as Chen Yuan's.
"Of course, you're having dinner with me, do you think you can pay for it?"
Chen Yuan chuckled, looking at the table full of dishes and roast duck in front of him, his stomach rumbling with hunger.
Having just sparred briefly with Chai Shao and learned the method of magnetic field manipulation from Ghost Hand King, he was quite exhausted and needed to replenish his energy.
While I'm at it, I'll think about how to deal with "Makino Ittosai".
This guy's Japanese swordsmanship is extremely advanced, especially when combined with that ever-changing "phantom sword," he's not so easy to deal with.
Moreover, Japanese swordsmanship is easier to learn quickly, so Makino Ittosai's current level is probably not much different from his level a dozen years from now.
That person's combat power is quite terrifying, especially when combined with the Illusion Sword, it becomes even more astonishing.
Although magical artifacts are everywhere in the modern-day comics, it's because Ma Xianhong has mastered the Divine Refinement Technique and combined it with the "Cultivation Furnace" to wholesale magical artifacts.
In reality, magical artifacts are extremely rare in the world of supernatural beings. Many artifact refiners probably only own one magical artifact in their entire lives.
"With a magical weapon and a master swordsman, this guy is going to be tough to deal with."
Chen Yuan's thoughts raced.
Makino Ittosai is likely to be a very difficult opponent, so he must be fully prepared. Fortunately, the three talisman techniques that Bi Xuanzi gave him are not simple.
Especially the Heavenly Gang Great Sage Talisman.
Tiangang is an ancient star name, referring to the handle of the Big Dipper, originating from the ancient people's natural worship of the stars. In the Big Dipper, the stars Tian Shu, Tian Xuan, Tian Ji, and Tian Quan form the body of the dipper, named "Kui," while Yu Heng, Kai Yang, and Yao Guang form the handle, named "Shao." Therefore, the so-called "Tiangang" is actually the three stars "Heng," "Kai Yang," and "Yao Guang."
The Book of Changes, Cantongqi, states: "In the second month, the elm leaves fall, and the Dipper is in the hour of Mao (卯); in the eighth month, the wheat grows, and the Heavenly Dipper is in the hour of You (酉)." Taoism considers it to be the star that governs life and death, as the saying goes, "The Southern Dipper governs life, and the Northern Dipper governs death." Later, the Heavenly Dipper was also used in astrology and Ziwei Doushu (紫微斗数) to refer to the inauspicious deity within a month in numerology.
Taoist scriptures believe that there are thirty-six Heavenly Generals among the stars of the Big Dipper, each with a chief deity. The chief deity of the thirty-six Heavenly Generals is called "Tian Gang Wan Zhen Jie Du Kui Guang Zhen Jun", "Bei Dou Tian Gang Wan Zhen Jie Du Kui Guang Da Di Jun", "Dou Zhong Tian Gang Wan Zhen Jie Du Kui Guang Di Jun", and "Shang Qing Bei Ji Tian Gang Da Sheng Kui Guang Jie Du Zi Ting Xing Jun", or simply "Tian Gang Da Sheng".
According to the "Complete Collection of Taoist Teachings and Practices: The Ritual of Life and Destiny", the Great Sage of the Heavenly Gang is the head of the "Seven Lords of the Big Dipper". Among the "Nine Emperors of the Big Dipper", he is second only to the Supreme Jade Emperor and the Great Emperor of the Taiwei Jade Emperor. He controls the four heavens and governs the twenty-eight constellations of the heavens. He guards the six directions and assists the Great Emperor of the Purple Palace in controlling all the stars.
In Taoism, the image of the Great Sage of the Heavenly Gang is majestic, with a height of a hundred feet. He wears a plain robe, with long hair, his left hand forming a mudra on his hip, his right hand holding a sword, and he stands barefoot. His face is purple, and he has three eyes, with the middle eye shining brightly and illuminating heaven and earth. Two streams of energy emanate from the top of his head, one blue and one white. From the blue and white, a blue-red energy emerges again, spreading like silk across heaven and earth.
"This Heavenly Gang Great Sage Talisman is similar to the Five Thunder Talisman, but its power is much greater than that of the Five Thunder Talisman. However, condensing a Heavenly Gang Great Sage Talisman requires consuming most of my true qi, and some of my divine sense power will also be consumed."
This thing should be used with caution.
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"Brother Yuan, this Jin Gang Huo Fang from Bianyifang tastes amazing, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender..."
Liu Deshui buried himself in his food.
"Deshui, if you keep eating like this, you're really going to become a fat person."
Chen Yuan shook his head. This kid looks like he has fat covering his muscles now, but who knows what will happen in the future? If this continues, he'll probably become a big fat man.
After finishing his meal, he still had to meet with Professor Wen and the others.
"Brother Yuan, what's wrong with being a little chubby? It doesn't stop me from fighting. But, how did Bianyifang get its name?"
Liu Deshui was quite curious.
Is it because the roast duck is cheap here?
But the price doesn't seem to be much cheaper.
"There is a rumor about this. It is said that in the thirtieth year of the Jiajing reign, Yang Jisheng, who was then serving as an assistant minister in the Ministry of War and lived in Dazhi Bridge outside Xuanwu Gate, impeached the treacherous minister Yan Song in court, but was instead framed by Yan Song. After court, feeling depressed and hungry, he wandered to the rice market alley at Caishikou."
Suddenly, a fragrant aroma wafted through the air, leading to a small shop. Pushing open the door, he entered. The shop was small but clean and elegant, filled with guests. He found a seat, ordered roast duck and some wine and dishes, and devoured the food, casting aside all his worries and unhappiness. Some recognized him, knowing he was a patriotic minister and general, and informed the shop owner. The owner personally served him duck and wine, showing great admiration, and they began to chat. Learning the shop's name was Bianyifang, and seeing the attentive service, he exclaimed, "This shop is truly cheap and affordable, excellent value for money!" He shouted, "Bring me a pen! Quickly, bring me a pen!" Pen, ink, paper, and inkstone arrived quickly, and Yang Jisheng bent over the table and wrote three large characters in one stroke: "Bianyifang!" Everyone cheered. Afterwards, Yang Jisheng and his ministers frequently visited the shop.
Therefore, this "cheap" isn't the same as that kind of cheapness. Of course, whether this story is true or not remains to be verified.
Chen Yuan chuckled.
After all, many so-called time-honored brands have fabricated stories.
In his time, merchants had mastered this trick to an extreme degree.
"Well said, cheap isn't cheap at all, Brother Chen, hehe, I didn't expect to run into you here!"
Just then, a familiar voice came, and a young man wearing glasses walked over. It was Hu Haiwang from the Shuzi Sect.
Beside Hu Haiwang was a young man with a wicked grin, long eyebrows, wearing a black long gown, and several six-digit coins hanging at his waist.
It seems extremely similar to the Six Lines Money Divination of Chen Jinkui of the Shuzi Sect in the comics, only it looks a little smaller, but there is no doubt that this guy is a very powerful sorcerer.
"Brother Chen Yuan, I've long admired your name. I've heard you're very skilled. I am Xu Daoqian from the Shu Zi Sect!"
The young man with a wicked grin was staring at Chen Yuan with amusement.
Chapter 359 Fire and Wind Cauldron Hexagram (Second Update)
"Xu Daoqian? Xu Daoqian of the Six Lines Soul Chaser? Hey? Brother Yuan, this guy is a very powerful sorcerer!"
Liu Deshui, who was eating the Golden Fire Feast, almost choked, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This man is a highly accomplished disciple of the Shuzi School. In addition to being skilled in Qimen Dunjia, he is also extremely proficient in Liuyao (a form of divination). He and Zhuge Yuntian of the Zhuge family in Jinling are known as the two heroes of divination.
"So it's Brother Xu! I've long admired your name!"
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes. This guy named Xu Daoqian is not simple. This guy seems to have awakened a part of divine sense as well.
That's normal, though.
Warlocks cultivate stillness and, moreover, their magical practice may lead them into inner illusory realms; therefore, each sect has its own...
Methods for cultivating one's spiritual mind.
Even that evil immortal guy said that sorcerers are very different from ordinary supernatural beings.
"Since we've all met here, why don't we eat together? There's so much food on this table, even Yuan-ge and I can't finish it all."
Liu Deshui adjusted his glasses and said.
He was also quite interested in Hu Haiwang.
"In that case, my junior brother and I will not stand on ceremony."
Xu Daoqian also plopped down at the table, looking Chen Yuan up and down.
Although this young man is not old, his cultivation level seems to be quite unfathomable. He couldn't even tell how deep the young man's cultivation was at a glance.
Moreover, this kid is clearly a sorcerer, and he also carries a trace of the Six Lines divination technique, so he obviously knows Six Lines magic.
That's interesting!
"Hehe, then I won't be polite."
Hu Haiwang didn't stand on ceremony at all, sat down, and began to eat heartily.
It has to be said that this roast duck was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, completely different from the roast duck he had eaten before. No wonder his senior brother said that the roast duck from Bianyifang was different from what they had eaten before.
"Speaking of which, I heard that Brother Chen defeated the Lu family's young master's disciple Lu Jin and his brother with a single move, and also defeated the disciple surnamed Mao from the Celestial Master's Mansion. Your cultivation is truly remarkable."
As Xu Daoqian spoke, he quickly reached out with his chopsticks, picked up a piece of roast duck, and stuffed it into his mouth, looking just like a homeless man who hadn't eaten for three days.
However, he and Hu Haiwang had indeed not eaten for two days.
Because they forgot to bring money when they left home, they had to resort to fortune tellers and street vendors to get here. In fact, the two of them only dared to come in after seeing Chen Yuan and his group.
It can only be said that for practitioners, wealth, companions, Dharma, and place are all important, and it is extremely difficult to practice without money.
