Dao Fruit

Appearing in front of Qiu Yan, it was the two catchers who had been ordered by the City God of the Eastern Capital.

However, the expressions of these two gods changed slightly after hearing Qiu Yan's greetings.

Speaking of which, after receiving the order, they went straight to the Golden Crow Soul, but when they arrived, the building was empty and the Golden Crow Soul had long been taken away.

According to the idea of ​​the City God of the Eastern Capital, they were to mediate between the two warring parties. But if one party loses, how can they still be used to coordinate?

But now that I'm here, I have to get in touch. After all, the monks inside and outside the city are now potential helpers to the Dongdu Yinsi. It doesn't hurt to get to know them better.

It was only when the two catching gods arrived and listened to Qiu Yan's greetings that they realized that the person in front of them was not a monk in the ordinary sense, but a Confucian scholar with cultivation.

There seems to be little difference between the two statements, but in the eyes of the gods, the two types of people are very different. The former kind of destiny is connected with the sect, is related to the Taoism, corresponds to the Taoist sect, and is restricted by the lower Shinto.

The luck of the latter type of Confucian scholars is connected with the dragon spirit. Within a certain range, at least in this East China continent, they are not affiliated with Shinto. Even if the Dongdu Chenghuang Si is in charge of the accompanying capital and has considerable power, he has no right to control Confucian students. Implement rewards and punishments.

"Young Master, you don't have to be polite. I'm here to find out the cause of this incident. The previous battle affected the Eastern Capital. It should not be ignored. It needs to be recorded in the file. Please tell me in detail, why did you fight with the Golden Crow? Conflict between Taoists?”

One of the two gods walked out and spoke politely to Qiu Yan.

It’s just that Qiu Yan and Shinto are not affiliated with each other, but the combat power he displays is comparable to that of fifth- and fourth-grade gods.

These two God Catchers are only at level six, but they can rely on magic, underworld and other means to increase their combat power. They are not afraid of Qiu Yan, but they do it for no reason, so why bother with each other?

Qiu Yan did not beat around the bush and told the story about him and Taoist Jinwu. The story was basically true. He started from walking out of the city gate and then talked about Taoist Jinwu taking action. The two fought and got into a chase, but they disappeared. Content related to King Yan.

The two God Catchers frowned as they listened, unable to grasp any clues. According to Qiu Yan's description, it was clear that the Taoist Jinwu took action for no reason, but his skills were inferior to others, and he was caught by Qiu Yan instead.

Of course they knew that there was something hidden in Qiu Yan's words, but it was difficult to question him. They could only wait until they got back and start from Youshen's side to try to understand the cause and effect.

In addition, when Qiu Yan was telling the story, the two gods observed closely and confirmed their suspicions. They noticed that Qiu Yan did not have much Taoist aura on his body, and that his luck was soaring to the sky, connected with the dragon aura and the imperial court.

"Not only is this scholar not a member of the Taoist sect, he also has a great reputation."

The two gods exchanged a look and knew what was going on.

Gods look at things differently from mortals. They don't just judge social matters, but focus more on cause and effect and luck. As soon as the two gods found out about Qiu Yan's situation, their plans immediately changed.

After Qiu Yan finished speaking, Yishen said: "In this case, this Taoist Jinwu is responsible for himself. However, after all, this happened in the territory of Dongdu. I still need to set up a file for you, Master, to record your identity and origin. There will be wandering gods in the future." Check frequently and make this clear to the young master to prevent misunderstandings again. "

Qiu Yan nodded and said: "That's the truth. Qiu can understand it. However, I met several wandering gods not long ago. Logically speaking, a file should have been established."

"Oh?" The two God Catchers were surprised at first, and then understood.

In recent times, the entire Divine Office has been busy and chaotic. It has long been a mess, so it is not surprising that there has been some negligence.

"It seems that after I return home, I have to ask Lord Tongsuan to sort out the latest files, otherwise..."

After thinking about it, the two gods said a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving.

Watching the divine light go away, Qiu Yan's brows furrowed. It was not because he was exposed to the Shinto. As he walked in the world, it was only a matter of time before the Shinto noticed him, as long as his connection with the divine body was not discovered.

However, Qiu Yan could see the hidden undercurrent in Dongdu City from the performance of the two gods.

"There is unrest in the city. I wonder if it will affect Wenxuan's evaluation."

Thinking of this, his mind fell on Yang Ying again, and he had various speculations. Then he glanced at Dongdu City, turned around and left.

Not long after, he returned to the temple house in the forest.

In the field outside the house, Yuxu Dao's people were working. Hu Qi and Dai Guo were standing by. They looked bored. There was the sound of reading from inside the house. It was Chen Yun who was studying.

Chen Yun was a member of the Chen family. He was brought by Qiu Yan after he was injured. After a few days of recuperation, the wound had healed. However, there was only a regression in his realm, but there was no way to make up for it.

However, this disciple of the Chen family was not depressed by this. Instead, after completing his training, he did not choose to leave. Instead, he stayed and studied and worked like everyone else in Yuxu Dao. Of course, compared with Yuxu disciples, Chen Yun's actions are much more free and unconstrained.

Noticing Qiu Yan's return, Chen Yun immediately went over and asked some questions, which were all doubts he had when he was studying just now.

Qiu Yan answered them one by one and finally asked: "Brother Chen looks good these days."

Chen Yun smiled and said: "To tell you the truth, reading and writing really have a wonderful effect. It makes Chen's mood more peaceful. Now I don't need to deliberately maintain my state to stop the trend of decline, and even have a little bit of energy. Signs of recovery.”

"That's good." Qiu Yan nodded.

This monk from the Chen family has a bit of a bookish air about him due to working and studying for several days. Compared with before, his aura has changed slightly.

However, although reading can calm the mind, stabilize the state, and stop the tendency of the state to fall, it is not that simple to restore the skill. It cannot be achieved overnight, and the third state already involves the transformation of the soul. If you want to repeat the old view, you still need to A lot of resources.

Fortunately, Soul Dao Shangxin, after all, Chen Yun had experienced the corresponding state of feeling. After studying and working for a while, his mind was pure, no distracting thoughts existed, he had a clearer grasp of the body and mind, and he was able to restore his skills with twice the result with half the effort.

But this process must be very long.

For another two days, I listened to Qiu Yan reading day and night, and the Yuxu disciples' regular schedule, and the irritability in my heart gradually faded away, becoming more and more peaceful.

However, Taoist Master Yuxu never showed up, causing several people to change their minds. At first it was just confusion, but now it has turned into worry.

However, Qiu Yan did not care about these people's thoughts, because the time for Wenxuan's criticism had come.

"It's still a little short of the mark. I hope I can gain something from criticizing a group..."

After tidying up, Qiu Yan took the article written on the sage paper and left again.

This time, there was not much discussion among the Yu Xu Dao people, but although they no longer paid attention, there were still others who paid attention.

In the mountain temple, the dilapidated clay sculpture on the god table flashed a little light, and a shadow of the mountain god emerged. He looked around and recorded the scenes he had seen in the past few days into a little spiritual thought and passed it on.

Compared with Qiu Yan who was trapped in Ziyuan Mountain, although the mountain god in this temple is also in a poor condition, due to its location in the capital, dense population, and sound Shinto, he is not trapped in a corner. He is still connected with the outside world. This situation is better. There are too many, so there is no lack of accumulation of divine power.

As soon as this divine thought was gone, it was transferred to the Yin Division of the Eastern Capital through the mountain god directly under it, and was obtained by the Tongpan Shen in charge of the files. Following him, he issued various arrangements. For a while, because of Qiu Yan's actions, some undercurrents began to flow. rise and cause many changes.

Although Qiu Yan, the person involved, noticed it, he ignored it. He came to Dongdu, asked several times, and successfully arrived outside Wenxuan Building.

This building is famous in the Eastern Capital, even more famous than the White Jade Building. However, compared to the luxury of the White Jade Building, the Wenxuan Building is simple and almost shabby. It occupies a small area with only three floors and is located in the corner of the inner city.

However, from a distance, Qiu Yan caught the extremely strong literary atmosphere from the building. It spread overwhelmingly, almost covering the surrounding streets and houses, like a lid, isolating that area from the surrounding area. Come.

"This Wenxuan Building is full of literary thoughts, which is no less impressive than the Tianli Building in Lizong Academy. I don't know if it's because there are many great Confucian scholars and scholars gathered here, or if it has its own mystery."

Qiu Yan was thinking when someone suddenly called his name.

"Brother Qiu..."

Qiu Yan followed the sound and saw a scholar with a handsome face. As soon as his thoughts changed, his name appeared in his memory. Qiu Yan smiled slightly and went up to him: "Brother Liu, long time no see."

This man's name is Liu Zhanpeng, and he is the son of Liu Jing, the observation envoy of Jiannan Road.

Liu Jing once wrote a handwritten letter recommending Qiu Yan to Lizong Academy. Although it failed, the favor of the recommendation was still there. His son Liu Zhanpeng was currently studying at Lizong Academy. He had also visited Qiu Yan with Chen Jing before to inform him of the news. , there is some friendship between the two.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, then Liu Zhanpeng asked: "Brother Qiu, are you here to participate in the Wenxuan review?"

"Not bad." Qiu Yan nodded.

Liu Zhanpeng laughed: "Brother Qiu is a talented scholar from Jiannan. He will definitely gain something by listening to the great scholars interpret other people's works here. It's a pity. If Brother Qiu could enter the academy, he would gain even more."

Qiu Yanze said: "I came here with my article for people to comment on."

"My own article?" Liu Zhanpeng's expression changed slightly, "I'm afraid Brother Qiu doesn't know something. The article that participated in the review must have opened his mind. No matter how well written the other articles are..." He obviously knew a lot about Shilin. Limited, seeing Qiu Yan here, I thought it was because he failed to enter Shilin.

"I already know this. My article has opened my mind." Qiu Yan said a few words, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, Brother Liu should know something about Dongdu. I don't know about Dongdu." Among the several academies, which one is related to Sun Sheng’s way?”

When asked, Liu Zhanpeng did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Qiu Yan in confusion. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
