Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel

Of course, what Zhao Yunheng said was not false at all. All he wanted was for Song Tonghai to bow his head.

As long as Song Tonghai opens his mouth, he will have the means to ensure the peace of the Song family. At the worst, he can save his life by sending him to the imperial capital.

Seeing that his expression did not seem to be hypocritical, the emperor nodded slightly: "That's good. Put away your thoughts and stop interfering in the affairs of the Song family. There are many hidden things in this. Don't bring trouble to yourself."

"Brother Imperial, can you please tell me?" Zhao Yunheng became curious.

"Five years ago, I received a message from the uncle of the Fourteenth Emperor, saying that the Song family's bloodline might be different, and ordered me to secretly investigate all the Song families in neighboring countries."

The Emperor took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Three thousand years ago, there was a Heavenly Lord named Song who stepped through the gate of the True Immortal. His ancestral home was less than a million miles away from me, the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"I have consulted a lot of information. In nearby countries, there are aristocratic families with the Song surname. Some have lasted for thousands of years, or some have been established for less than a hundred years. They also have an amazing thing in common. Basically, they have produced immortal seedlings in their families."

"Song family, maybe the queen of Tianjun?" Zhao Yunheng's expression changed drastically.

If the Song family is really the queen of Tianjun, it would be too shocking.

The Immortal Sect is just a group of people cultivating immortals, but the Heavenly Lord is the real immortal!

After undergoing the baptism of heaven and earth, he is covered with immortal bones. When he exhales, he turns into clouds and rains. He can give birth to a supreme cave heaven and a blessed land at his fingertips. Compared with it, the so-called immortal gate is not worth mentioning at all.

"If you are not the queen of Tianjun, I am afraid that you have the same origin. This matter is top secret and cannot be spread outside."

The Emperor shook his head slightly: "You don't have to think too much. Even after the Heavenly Lord, the Heavenly Lord is no longer in the world. The uncle of the Fourteenth Emperor has other plans to inquire about the origin of his bloodline, so don't get involved in it. .”

"That Song Lingqing is a top-grade immortal bone has been spread in the nearby countries. There are far more than one or two people who have ideas about her. Her situation is even more dangerous. Whether she can survive to participate in the competition is still a question mark. Let's wait and see what happens. That’s it.”

"I understand, thank you for reminding me, brother."

Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Yunheng's forehead. He could only vaguely see that the Song family's bloodline was somewhat magical, but he never thought that it would be so magical.

"Go ahead. I have arranged for Mingzhou to handle the matter in Luofeng City. You will return to the fiefdom in a few days."

The emperor waved his hand, turned around, stepped into the shadow of the palace, and disappeared in an instant.

Zhao Yunheng was stunned for a moment, rubbed his face, and walked out of the side hall slowly, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Father, you..."

Seeing the red slap marks on Zhao Yunheng's face, Zhao Jichang, who was waiting outside, panicked for a moment.

"It's okay. Have a good few days in the imperial capital. After a while, my father will take you back to the fiefdom."

Zhao Yunheng came back to his senses and said slowly: "Song Lingxue, you don't have to worry about it. Father will find another marriage for you."

"My child doesn't really care whether it's a marriage or not."

Zhao Jichang shook his head and couldn't hide his worry: "Is your face really okay? Do you want to find an imperial doctor to take a look?"

In this moment, Zhao Yunheng's face was as swollen as a steamed bun, and his five fingerprints were clearly visible, bloodshot and red and swollen.

Uncle Huang has such a strong hand...

"It's so sweet without love."

Zhao Yunheng walked out of the palace with his hands behind his back, and began to make calculations in his mind again.

After hearing about Song Tianjun, his desire to find a match for Zhao Jichang became even more urgent.

Song Tonghai was not the only family with the Song surname in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He remembered that there were several wealthy families with the Song surname in the imperial capital. He looked at them one by one and there was always something suitable.

After all, she has the same surname as Tianjun. Even if she just marries someone with the surname Song, she should be able to get some celestial energy. It is really impossible to marry more than one.

As for success or failure, that is a matter for later.

Luofeng City, City Lord's Mansion.

The sun was setting in the west, the chill was rising, and the biting cold wind began to howl again.

Within the main hall.

Chu Zheng sat at the table and poured himself a cup of tea, sighing secretly in his heart.

"Boy, go out and find out what kind of person I, Li Mingzhou, am. The emperor respected me even when he was young. If you miss this opportunity, you will never see it again."

Li Mingzhou, wearing red armor, stood not far away, with a solemn expression and a deep tone:

"I, Li Mingzhou, have never seen such a person. If it weren't for your excellent bones and natural supernatural power, I couldn't bear to have you buried in the countryside, so I would give you a chance."

After he finished speaking, seeing that Chu Zheng remained silent, Li Mingzhou became a little anxious:

"You really don't want to be my master? Let me tell you, I have no children. If you want me to be your master, everything I have will be yours in the future, including the position of the Suzaku Divine Guard. I can help you." Fight with Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Chu Zheng still didn't speak, feeling helpless.

Li Mingzhou's reaction was all due to the strange phenomenon brought about by the dragon and tiger body. His body was now gradually different from ordinary people, with a dragon's waist and a tiger's back, tendons like a strong bow and bones like steel. This Li Mingzhou's eyesight was extremely sophisticated, which made him He saw it.

After touching the bones, he saw that there was no trace of internal strength in Chu Zheng's body. Li Mingzhou was overjoyed and insisted on accepting him as his disciple.

Naturally, Chu Zheng could not agree. Becoming a teacher is not a child's play. Being a teacher for one day and a father for life is not an empty saying.

Li Mingzhou's strength was acceptable, but he was far from qualified to be his master.

In the path of spiritual practice, those who have mastered it are teachers, regardless of age.

With Qi Refining Technique at his disposal, Chu Zheng was confident enough that with one more month, he would not even need to use his hands to defeat Li Mingzhou.

In terms of strength, Li Mingzhou is not up to par, and in terms of vision and knowledge, Li Mingzhou is not necessarily much better than him.

Under all the disparities, how could Li Mingzhou be his master?

Seeing Chu Zheng drinking tea by himself, Li Mingzhou finally lost his temper and pretended to smile lightly:

"Haha, I have seen many young people like you. I thought that if I have a little talent, I will definitely be able to stand out in the future. Traveling in the world is not that simple. Actually, I don't really want to accept you as a disciple, but I feel a little... It’s just a pity.”

Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help but add: "You really don't want me to be your teacher?"

"Everyone has his own ambitions, so don't blame them all." Chu Zheng slowly shook his head and gradually figured out some information in his mind.

Li Mingzhou is the special envoy of the imperial court, and to some extent, he can already represent the emperor's attitude.

If he came here to kill people, Li Mingzhou would never have this attitude.

Although the Suzaku Divine Guard came with great fanfare, it was more like a superficial show, for the world to see.

The imperial court's original intention may not be to interfere in this matter, but the eyes of the world are watching, so it has to come.

There was a hidden secret that he didn't know about.

Just as Chu Zheng was about to leave, Li Mingzhou on the side suddenly raised his hand, turned one palm over, and pressed it towards the void outside the hall.

This simple press fell into Chu Zheng's eyes, but it suddenly had an inexplicable trajectory, and he was fascinated in an instant.

boom!

With a palm fall, more than ten feet away, the bluestone screen wall nearly three feet thick collapsed, and dust flew everywhere, revealing the blocked door behind it.

"This is a Sanshou style that I accidentally acquired from a stone wall in my early years. I should be the only one in the world who knows it."

Li Mingzhou slowly retracted his hand and suppressed his slightly rapid breathing:

"How about it? Become your teacher and I will teach you."

Chu Zheng had no time to listen to what he said at this moment, his mind was completely occupied by the prompts on the panel.

[The third form of the Xuantian Seal (Level 5/Incomplete): It was written by a god and is a masterpiece of martial arts. It is divided into nine forms. It lacks the seal. It is extremely difficult for you to repair it. 】

[Currently repairable: Xuantian Seal Type 3 (0/30000)]

Level five!

What is the concept of fifth level? It is one stage stronger than the complete dragon and tiger body, and only one level lower than the general outline of the Great Zhou Tian Qi Movement, and this is just one of the techniques!

Chu Zheng pulled out the panel. After looking at it, his expression changed again.

[Name: Chu Zheng]

[Cultivation: Zero Level]

[Gong Technique: General Outline of the Great Zhou Tianqi Movement (Level 6/Incomplete), Dragon and Tiger Body (Level 4/Incomplete)...]

[Supernatural Power: The Third Form of Xuantian Seal (Fifth Level/Incomplete)]

[Restorer: Level 0 (357/1000)]

[Remaining number of repairs for the day: 0]

[Currently repairable: The third form of Xuantian Seal (0/30000), the first chapter of the Great Zhou Tianqi Movement (0/1000), the dragon and tiger body chapter (75/100)]

On the original panel, there is an extra column. Xuantian Seal is not a skill, but a magical power that can increase combat power.

Chu Zheng came back to his senses and asked slightly nervously: "May I ask Du Tong, where is this stone wall?"

Just one of the moves has reached the fifth level. If he can get the stone wall, he may be able to obtain the complete Xuantian Seal.

Seeing that Chu Zheng's expression finally changed, Li Mingzhou couldn't help but feel a little complacent and said casually: "There was only a corner of the stone wall left. After I cut it off, I threw it into the bottom of the sea."

Click——

Upon hearing this, the veins on Chu Zheng's forehead suddenly popped up, and he subconsciously clenched his fists, making a crisp sound between his knuckles.

After a moment, he weakly let go of his hand. People in this world have no respect for the sages, and naturally there is no so-called protection for some of the heritage left by ancient times.

From Li Mingzhou's point of view, his actions are understandable. In order to prevent others from seeing it, destroying the stone wall is the best choice.

"It's getting late. If there's nothing else important, please leave everyone behind."

With a sigh, Chu Zheng said goodbye and did not mention Xuantian Yin again.

Li Mingzhou still had the remains of the rubbings on the stone wall in his hand. If he asked, Li Mingzhou would never refuse.

But he couldn't give Li Mingzhou what he wanted, so he just pretended that it didn't happen.

Obtaining the third form of Xuantian Seal is already a worthwhile trip. People cannot be too greedy, or they will suffer backlash. Only by being content can you always be happy.

Li Mingzhou's eyes were complicated, and without saying another word, he turned his back and waved his hand, signaling Chu Zheng to leave.

"Thank you, Dutong, for your guidance today."

Chu Zheng thanked him and slowly left the city lord's mansion.

When they arrived at the door, Song Tonghai, Song Lingxue and Song Yun were all waiting at the foot of the stairs. Seeing that he came out safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

…………

…………

Snowflakes gradually began to rise in the sky, dancing like fine velvet, and the sky was silvery gray and dull.

The group of people walked slowly towards the Song Mansion on the snowy ground.

Song Yun, who was following Song Lingxue, opened the oil paper umbrella in his hand and raised it to Song Lingxue's head.

Song Lingxue took it smoothly, propped it on Chu Zheng's head, and asked softly: "What happened inside just now? Why was there so much movement?"

Chu Zhengyan said concisely and concisely: "Li Mingzhou intended to accept me as his disciple, but I declined, so he deliberately resorted to tricks to make me feel uneasy."

"That's it." Song Lingxue suddenly realized, weighed her feet and raised her hands higher: "Then did he talk about Yuan Xingcai?"

"No."

Chu Zheng shook his head slightly and directly expressed his guess: "The court's trip is not intended to arrest the culprit, but more to save face."

"Seriously?" Song Lingxue was slightly surprised: "How did you know?"

"Read more books and you will naturally understand."

Chu Zheng thought of the stone wall and couldn't help but sigh again: "What we are going through now must have been similar to our predecessors. We can learn from the past and learn from others."

Song Yun followed Song Lingxue with a dull look on his face. The snow falling in the air gradually wetted his shoulders and made his head white.

…………

…………

After Chu Zheng left, Li Mingzhou's expression gradually returned to calm, and his brows became a little more desolate.

A hero dies in his twilight years, and the weight of time is so heavy that he cannot stand up straight. Even though he looks full of energy and is in the age of tiger and wolf, he is almost a hundred years old.

It is really difficult to find a successor who is pleasing to your eyes.

Everyone in the world knows that there is no way to seek the Tao, and the journey is difficult. But they don't know that it is as difficult for this master to find disciples as climbing to the sky.

Chu Zheng is too young and has strong roots. His future achievements will definitely be far better than his, and he may even explore the legendary road to martial immortals.

If you can enter the immortal sect, who wouldn't want to cultivate immortality? Practicing martial arts is just a helpless move, but without a bone, you are destined to miss the immortality.

Entering the Immortal Sect through martial arts is just a legend after all.

A Suzaku divine guard quickly walked into the main hall and placed a detailed list in front of Li Mingzhou:

"Capital, these are the account books found from the secret room of Yuan Xingcai's house. In addition, there are 73,216 taels of gold, 596,327 taels of silver, and Some jewelry, a five-hundred-year-old medicine, thirty-four century-old medicine..."

The list is enough to make a cup of tea, and there are countless rare treasures of all kinds.

"You're richer than me, damn it."

After glancing at the list, Li Mingzhou cursed in a low voice. The expression of the Suzaku Divine Guard beside him did not change at all, and he was obviously used to it.

"Is there any record of Song Tonghai's bribery in the account books?"

"Yes, about a dozen transactions, totaling more than 20,000 taels of silver."

A cold light flashed in Li Mingzhou's eyes, he poured a cup of tea, drank it all, and said slowly:

"I'm going to write a memorial and report it to the Holy One. After verification, it was found that Yuan Xingcai had embezzled countless bribes during his lifetime, which had aroused public resentment. Now he has found the stolen money: 70,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of silver, and some jewelry. There is no need to write the rest. Give it to the brothers. They are divided."

"promise."

At night, just after midnight.

Chu Zheng sat cross-legged and prepared to perform the exercises, still recalling all the events of the past two days in his mind.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and Chu Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils slightly dilated.

The court's attitude was enough to show that the people who attacked and killed the Song Dynasty that night had nothing to do with the court.

In this case, only the Hidden Immortal Sect is left.

Hua Hua——

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a sudden soft sound in the room. Chu Zheng raised his head, pulled out the mace from the edge of the bed, narrowed his eyes slightly, and the dust fell from the cracks in the roof tiles.

There's someone on the roof, far more than just one...
