The junior sister started to work from dawn to dusk every day to build the road. When she came back from the road construction every day, she would bring some spiritual plants from the mountains.

After Lin Jue informed his second senior brother and senior senior brother about planting the alchemy tree, he and the two of them took turns refining the spiritual plants brought back by the younger junior sister into spiritual fluid and sealed them in bottles for storage.

This process is also considered as practicing alchemy.

Originally, Lin Jue's attainments in this area were relatively shallow and he could only refine two or three bottles of spiritual liquid at a time. However, as he became more proficient in alchemy, the amount of spiritual liquid he could refine at the same time also increased.

You can also take this opportunity to make a flying sword.

Refining alchemy takes a long time, and when you are not proficient in alchemy, you are always nervous. It seems that you never have a free moment in the whole day. You are tense every moment, refining alchemy and refining yourself. However, after you become proficient in alchemy, you will have a lot of free time to use freely.

Well, most of the second senior brothers chose to burn incense and play the harp as music, and Lin Jue used it to melt the spiritual gold.

It just so happens that there is spiritual fire under the alchemy cauldron.

The spiritual gold gifted by the mountain god was a fragment of the ancient emperor's alchemy furnace. It was indeed not an ordinary product. Before Lin Jue felt how hard it was, he first felt how resistant it was to burning.

If it weren't for the preparation of spiritual liquid for the elixir fruit tree recently, the spiritual fire under the elixir cauldron would not go out day and night, and there was also the extremely hot spiritual fire of the second senior brother. It would be difficult for Lin Jue to melt it.

Even so, it would take almost three days and three nights to melt it.

After melting, it is divided into more than ten parts according to the size, and is quickly poured into the mold to make the initial shape. Before each forging, it takes another half a day to burn it red.

"Ding...ding..."

The clear sound of forging iron echoed in the mountains.

Lin Jue was forging in the yard.

My little fox lay lazily next to him. He was already used to the sound and what he was doing, and he didn't even look at him. But the cat in the distance couldn't stand it. He lay in the distance and squinted his eyes, listening to every tinkling sound.

I can't help but tremble, but I feel helpless about it.

At some point, Taoist Yunhe came to him.

The orange cat in the courtyard also came to him.

"Bang bang bang..."

The orange cat was really angry and couldn't discuss it with him, so it raised its paws and slapped his legs with cat punches.

Lin Jue stopped for a moment and looked down at it.

Wait for it to finish beating, then continue beating it.

"Ding, ding..."

"This doesn't look like a weapon made for bean soldiers." Taoist Yunhe said from behind.

When the bean soldiers were first made, the statues were almost half a hand high, and the spears used were almost as long as a hand. If they were long knives or long swords, they would be about the same length as a finger. After being refined, they would be of normal size.

But what Lin Jue was forging at this time was a small and graceful sword. The length was about less than two knuckles of the index finger. Although it had a handle, there was no hand guard. It looked like a sword, but also like a sword.

It's darts.

Taoist Yunhe has rich experience, so he can naturally see that this small sword is not suitable for human hands to hold and wield.

"I use this for myself."

Lin Jue forged it and burned it with spiritual fire to keep it warm. At the same time, he replied to Taoist Yunhe:

"I originally had six darts, which were very easy to use, but I lost two when I went down the mountain to fight with the bear demon. The remaining four are not so sharp after being used for a long time, and my long sword has also been curled.

.I happened to learn bean soldiers from my third senior brother, so I came up with the idea of ​​using the method of making bean soldiers to make weapons, and then refining them into beans to make them easier to carry and summon when needed."

He paused for a moment:

"I tried it some time ago when I was repairing the weapons of the bean soldiers, and it worked."

"Hehehe..."

Taoist Yunhe was not surprised, he just smiled and said: "Master also tinkered with this when he was young."

"Master has tried it too?" Lin Jue became interested, "How is it?"

"What's the matter? Don't you already know everything? This way is possible." Taoist Yunhe said, "It's just that my master is not good at fighting with swords, and he doesn't have the method of controlling objects. He made it with ordinary spiritual gold.

The weapons are similar to ordinary swords in the mountains. Later, when the Taoist practice became advanced, these swords and pellets were no longer needed, so they were all used by the bean soldiers."

"Ding ding ding..."

Lin Jue was still hammering hard and was silent for a while before speaking:

"I have."

After speaking, he received no response.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, the old Taoist man beside him just smiled and said nothing.

The tinkling sound in the mountains continues to drift away.

The old Taoist finally spoke again:

"How many are you going to do?"

"This piece of spiritual gold given by the mountain god is enough for me to make twelve small swords, which can be used as dart daggers, and three long swords. I added spiritual wood as handles to make them look like normal long swords.

"

"Not bad, not bad..."

The old Taoist smiled, suddenly became interested, and rolled up his sleeves: "The old Taoist is here to help you too!"

"ah?"

"Don't worry, I still have strength!"

Then the jingling sounds in the mountains became two.

The production of bean soldiers is mainly divided into two types: carving and sacrificial refining. The former mainly tests craftsmanship, while the latter tests Taoism.

Although the process of making weapons has nothing to do with carving, it still belongs to carving, and the test is still craftsmanship. In terms of craftsmanship, from Lin Jue's point of view, his master may not necessarily be able to beat his third senior brother.

Of course he is much more powerful than himself.

The master's most powerful thing is Tao Xing, and Tao Xing determines the effect of the sacrifice, which directly determines the strength of the bean soldiers. However, it is not used at this time. What is used is the master's fire spell - the old man can just point a finger.

It's a flame that's close to real fire. I'm afraid most of the fairies and ghosts will be knocked out of their wits if they get a little bit of it.

Under such fierce flames, the spiritual gold is always red and shiny, making it much easier to forge.

The master even took over the three small swords that Lin Jue had prepared for sacrifice and weighed them carefully, but only put one of them back.

"This one is fine. The details of these two are different and need to be adjusted." Taoist Yunhe said. "It should be noted that making weapons using this method is more difficult than forging swords with the blacksmith at the foot of the mountain. What's more, as long as there are slight differences, the summoned

When it gets bigger, it becomes a bigger difference, so you have to be more careful.”

"yes."

How could Lin Jue not know this?

It’s not that the craftsmanship is not enough.

"Most of the well-known sword shops in the rivers and lakes under the mountain are named after water, such as Longquan Tangxi. From this, we can see that water has a great influence on the quality of swords." Taoist Yunhe said while fighting, "The weapons of Dou soldiers

You must first sacrifice and refine it before summoning the blade. You must know this. However, after the blade is quenched, the water in the fragrant sand well on the top of the lotus is the best in this mountain, followed by the cinnabar spring.

.”

"Third Senior Brother also told me this."

"Then he's quite reliable!"

Taoist Yunhe smiled and said to him again:

"The way of bean soldiers lies in refinement. The reason why ordinary gold and iron cannot be used for bean soldiers' weapons is not only that ordinary gold and iron cannot be refined, but also because the quality of ordinary gold and iron is not enough. If you use a small knife as long as your finger, it will be small.

The sword turned into an ordinary-sized sword and was even more unusable, so only spiritual gold could be used.

"Although spiritual gold is used, after it is summoned and enlarged, it can only be as hard as an ordinary sword, or even worse. It needs to be sacrificed to strengthen it.

“Therefore, the golden spirit is the best weapon for bean soldiers.

"Although the spiritual gold given to you by the mountain god is good, if you can find gold essence in the future, melt it again, add gold essence into it, and fight it again, you can use it as a magic weapon."

Lin Jue silently wrote it down but asked again:

"What is gold essence?"

"It's the essence of the Five Elements, like the earth and wood essence you got before." Taoist Yunhe replied, "Just like the aura can be divided into rich and shallow, the gold essence also has three grades: upper, middle and lower. The higher the grade, the more essence.

.”

"How to find it?"

"This is like the elixir in the mountains. In the world and due to fate, it can only be encountered but cannot be sought."

"That's it..."

When Lin Jue thought of this, he couldn't help but think of how many bean soldiers his master had made over the years, and how powerful the bean soldiers he had been training for his whole life must be.

Immediately there was another curiosity:

"Master, the masters of all generations also practiced the method of bean soldiers, but what about their bean soldiers?"

"We are all cultivators, and you and I are masters and disciples, so we can speak frankly. Just ask where all your bean soldiers will go after your old Taoist dies." Taoist Yunhe laughed, and then said, "

Naturally, I asked them first if they wanted to leave or stay. If they wanted to leave, they would disperse; if they stayed, they would pass it on from generation to generation."

"this……"

Lin Jue couldn't help but be shocked——

Fuqiu Temple has been passed down for so many years. Even if every temple owner does not specialize in bean soldiers, and there are only a few bean soldiers left, that is still a terrible number, right?

That would really be the case.

Then continue forging.

Twelve small flying swords less than two knuckles long, and three small long swords about the same length as the middle finger were built one after another. Then one day, the disgraced junior sister did not come back until dark, with an air of finally completing the task.

She told everyone that she had finished building the road.

…

Between Yishan Mountain, a stone-step road leads directly to Xianyuan Temple.

The roadside is lined with strange peaks and rocks, cliffs, and the leaves of various plants have already turned yellow and red.

A group of Taoists were walking among them.

The person walking at the front was a veteran.

I saw a tall and majestic granite mountain in the distance, like a fairy mountain. There were palaces, pavilions, stone steps and corridors built on the mountain. There were also many young and old monks coming out to greet me.

"Master Yunhe!"

Young Taoists and middle-aged Taoists all saluted.

Only the other old Taoist with white hair and beard standing at the front showed disdain and said to Taoist Yunhe: "You old Taoist, are you finally willing to come to Xianyuan Temple again?"

"For thousands of years, there has not been a decent road between you and the Taoist temples. Your rotten face is not worthy of walking on this rotten road. However, my disciple is hardworking and talented, so he built the road. I want to

I'm afraid it will take hundreds or thousands of years to follow this road, and the poor Taoist will naturally be the first to take it." Taoist Yunhe said to him, "From now on, your disciples of Xianyuan Temple will go down the mountain and walk on this road.

Please remember that you are taking advantage of my disciple."

"You're the first one to leave? Master Dao left last night!"

"Have you finished walking? It doesn't count if you haven't finished walking."

"Why doesn't it count?"

“How can we calculate that there is no beginning and no end?”

"I can see that you are about to die!" Wangjizi seized the opportunity, waved his fly whisk, and looked at Taoist Yunhe, "Have you had a good year?"

"Go to the ordinary place, and the spring breeze will sweep away the remaining snow."

"snort……"

Wang Jizi turned around and walked behind him.

On the other hand, his eldest disciple stood there, respectfully, and made an invitation gesture to Taoist Yun He and Lin Jue and his entourage behind him.

…

In the enlightenment room in the backyard, green smoke curled up with sandalwood, several tables of tea and futons, and a group of Taoists sitting on the futons.

Lin Jue and his junior sister sat together. In the tea bowl in front of them were a few slices of camellia and a large chrysanthemum. The tea in the mouth was originally bitter, but the chrysanthemum made the tea taste softer, but added another touch of astringency.

I could only hear Master Wangjizi sighing leisurely: "As an old Taoist, have you ever regretted what you did back then?"

"Youth is always reckless."

Taoist Yunhe raised his cup and blew the tea foam, then drank the tea, but he couldn't help but frowned. He was used to drinking sweet water from pine needles in Taoist temples, but he was a little bit unaccustomed to drinking the coarse tea from Xianyuan Temple.

The main reason is that this tea is too thick.

"Is it reckless? It's just self-righteous!" Wangjizi said, "Now is the world of incense and fire. Those spiritual practitioners who first gained the Tao in ancient times have occupied their place in the sky. Do you think they have such good intentions? Let the people who come after you also become

Do you really have Taoism and stand in the same place as them? You must know that the reason why they are immortals and high above them is not because of how high their Taoism is and how powerful their magic power is, but because, oh, because there are many mortal Taoists below, and the mortals below are

The more Taoists there are, the higher they stand."

"We Yishan monks only lack the Great Yin and Yang Dharma." Taoist Yunhe simply said after hearing this, "If it was you who was listening to the immortal's sermon on Tiandu Peak at that time, you wouldn't be able to bear it."

"How can it be that easy?"

"It's just that I died a few decades prematurely. It's no big deal. So what if you live a few decades longer than me? Isn't it because my Taoism is not as good as mine and my disciples are not as good as me?"

When Lin Jue and his junior sister heard this, they understood that this was what they meant by recklessness.

At the same time, Lin Jue's guess was indeed correct. The master heard the immortal's explanation of the deep truth of yin and yang on Tiandu Peak and failed to pursue the great yin and yang method, which led to the imbalance of yin and yang.

At this time, Wangjizi’s eldest disciple couldn’t help but frown and asked:

"What is the Great Yin and Yang Dharma?"

Taoist Yunhe and Wang Jizi looked at each other immediately, but did not say anything further, because they knew that as soon as they started talking, there would be a Taoist on the mountain to try.

Taoists in the mountains are either idle and bored, or they are dedicated to seeking truth and truth. No matter which one they are, they may not be able to resist trying the Yin-Yang Avenue.

Lin Jue knew something about it——

Nowadays, both the imperial court on earth and the heavenly gods support the Fulu Sect and suppress the Spiritual Law Sect. Therefore, there are fewer and fewer spells in the world, and many spells have even been lost.

Not to mention spiritual methods.

At present, the spiritual methods practiced by the spiritual method sect in the world are mainly the spiritual method of heaven and earth, the spiritual method of yin and yang and the spiritual method of five elements.

Among them, the spiritual method of heaven and earth is also called the spiritual method of mountains and rivers. It requires absorbing the aura of mountains and rivers, so it has to be practiced in a fairy mountain cave. It also has to travel more and absorb the auras of different mountains and rivers. Almost all people who have succeeded in practicing this way are

He is indifferent to fame and wealth and does not like disputes. Moreover, nowadays, most of the famous mountains have been occupied by immortals as dojos, or have been made mountain gods, so his aura has also been limited.

The laws of yin and yang are divided into small and large ones, and the progress of practicing the small yin and yang method is limited. This is the key to limiting the difficulty for all disciples of Fuqiu Temple to become immortals. The great yin and yang law is rarely spread in the world.

The Five Elements Spiritual Technique is good at fighting, but not longevity.

In short, each has its own limitations and difficulties.

"There are probably only two or three Taoist temples that have the Great Yin and Yang Dharma left in the world today. Oh, I'm afraid there are more monsters who know the Great Yin and Yang Dharma than Taoists." Wangjizi shook his head and laughed.

"Bah! You guys here are still good at using the best things to waste!" Taoist Yunhe couldn't help spitting out a piece of gold petals. He looked down and looked uncomfortable, "It's a pity that this fine gold chrysanthemum is gone."

"Where can you go?"

"Much better! I have a good disciple!"

"..."

A few sentences changed the subject, and a few sentences made Wangjizi Taoist raise his eyebrows, and they parted ways unhappily.
Chapter completed!
