Chapter 42: The Past

"Old Ma!" asked Jia Jia, who lowered his head and studied the array plate, "Your array of transforming the Liangyi Array seems to have changed from the Kun position to the exchange position?"

"You found it!" Old Man Ma didn't look up, but stretched out his hand to point out the window, "You can see the scene outside!"

"See, everything is recovering, spring is coming!" replied, but the doubts in her eyes still did not dissipate.

"This array is fixed here by me and can't be moved! When did I lay it out for you to study, and what was this Transfiguration Array for?" asked Ma Lao.

"When you gave it to me, it was the end of the four seasons and winter!" Jia Jia said "oh", and suddenly suddenly, "It's spring, and this transfiguration array is used to transform the trees withering and the growth ......of all things!"

Ma Lao raised his head and smiled: "It's good to understand!"

Jia Jia continued: "This fixed array has changed due to changes in the external environment!" Jia Jia couldn't help laughing: "So, Ma Lao, you want me to understand that it is not possible to blindly rely on what is said in the book to set up the array, and it must change according to the changes in the outside world and the changes in use!"

Ma Lao nodded, shook his head again, thought about it or put down the jade slip in his hand, stroked his beard, Jia Jia saw this, and quickly sat up straight, sure enough, Ma Lao began to preach: "You can only use the array plate now, the level is only equivalent to a first-grade array mage, and the formation is engraved on the array plate, in fact, this itself is already very dead." The array plate is a dead thing, and when you use it, of course, it has to change according to different environments!" Ma Lao knocked on the array plate fixed on the table, "The fixed dead thing is even dead, and the old man has to change it! When you usually use it in your hand, you have to change the orientation of the array plate according to the changes of the four seasons around you, such as your method, if you don't learn to use it, you will cause a fire to burn to the end, and it can be easily extinguished by water." That's a stupid thing to do!

"Remember, remember!" Jia Jia smiled and lowered her head, and at the same time exchanged her hand and slid towards the shock position!

Seeing this, Ma Lao nodded: "Well, it's not stupid to be thorough, I know that I want to change the method of leading the formation!"

"Alas!" replied with a smile, "Jia Jia is stupid, so use your brain more and try to make yourself smarter!"

Ma Lao shook his head: "You're not stupid! If Xiao Wu had half of your intelligence and half of your heart, it wouldn't be like this!"

"Ma Lao!" Jia Jia looked at him with some surprise, on weekdays, she tried not to talk about Ma Lao's past, everything she knew was what she heard from Yuan Lao on weekdays.

"You come with me!" Ma Lao stood up, "It's only been a few days since you went to the Ten Thousand Beasts Plain, and I have something to explain to you!"

"Yes!" Jia Jia followed Ma Lao into the hut at the back of Seven Star Village.

As soon as he stepped in, Jia Jia was stunned! There were five spirit tablets in the room.

Ma Lao skillfully lit three incense sticks and bowed three times.

"The old man has taken in five apprentices in his life!" Ma Lao's voice felt unreal in the thick smoke.

"It's all here! On weekdays, when that old guy from Xiuyang Peak Yuan comes to look for me, you must have asked him about it! The boss is dead fighting with people, the second brother is dying when he goes out to practice, the third brother has a quarrel with people when he fights with people, he is killed during a dispute, and the fourth child dies under the hands of the demon beast! Xiao Wu is also dead!"

"Ma Lao!" Listening to Ma Lao's helpless voice, Jia Jia was a little unbearable.

"You should have guessed it! Why was I so excited at that time! Xiao Wu was brought up by me, she was originally just an abandoned baby, the old man saw her qualifications of the double spirit root and took it under the door, and accidentally fell off the cliff and died when competing with others! At that time, you were about the same age as Xiao Wu, and she also gritted her teeth like you didn't want to die, but unexpectedly, halfway, she was pushed off the cliff by her opponent! The old man thought of Xiao Wu at that time, and he was sad and indignant for a while! Ma Lao picked up the spirit card with Xiao Wu written on it, and slowly rubbed it.

"I know how to do it!" Jia Jia sighed, "Ma Lao, you don't drink alcohol on weekdays, and when you meet Yuan Lao, you have to drink a few cups, and after drinking, you start to talk about your five apprentices, and the most talked about is Xiao Wu!"

Ma Lao put down Xiao Wu's spirit card and turned to look at Jia Jia: "I instructed you in the formation, in the eyes of others, it is no different from a master and apprentice, but I have never mentioned accepting you as an apprentice, you can blame me!"

Jia Jia shook her head: "It's not strange! Jia Jia has been in Kunlun since he entered Kunlun, and he has never been a loner in cultivating immortals, and he has never been a teacher, and he is fortunate to meet Ma Lao, not a teacher, it is better than a teacher, and the grace of teaching is unforgettable in this life!"

"Back then, I urged the secret method to fight most of the skills, and I could only let her talk to the old man for three more months, and I went after all! How can such a secret method against the sky end well, even if the old man is now, I am just a strong outsider, and other real people call me Ma Lao is just a little thin face for an old man who only has twenty years of life!"

Jia Jia was silent, how could she not know that it was only three months after learning the formation from Ma Lao, and she learned it from the drunken Ma Lao.

"Changing yin and yang without permission, forcibly renewing life, in the three months of Xiao Wu, the old man paid one hundred and fifty years of life!" said Yuan Lao to her at that time.

"If Xiao Wuyi dies, I will make a poisonous oath, if I accept apprentices again in this life, I will teach me to cultivate my whole life without an inch!" Ma Lao's expression was solemn, and he said with a little pride: "No matter how unbearable the old man is, it is also a golden pill!" If I accept you as an apprentice, this identity alone can make you live a lot better, the old man is not stupid, this is also a matter of knowledge!" As soon as the words changed, Ma Lao said again: "But you are now at the eleventh level of Qi training, if you reach the foundation building, there is still no teacher, and life will not be easy!" If you come back from the Wanshou Plain, it is still like this, the old man, I will accept you as an apprentice, and I can protect you for twenty years, that is, the old man has fallen, and in the future, with your status as a disciple of Jin Dan, there are few people in Ming Zhaofeng who can embarrass you!"

"Ma Lao, but you made an oath!" In the face of the sudden promise, Jia Jia only felt a slight moistness in her eyes.

"Oath! So what?" Ma Lao's expression was a little disdainful, "With that secret method, can the old man's body still be advanced? After twenty years or so, what if he violates that oath? What harm will it do to me! It couldn't be worse!"

"I ......" Before the words fell, he was interrupted by Ma Lao, who stretched out his hand and pointed to a box that seemed to be thrown at random on the ground: "Open it!"

Touching the box, Jia Jia was stained with a hand of ash, opened the box, the appearance of the gray box, inside is actually a good brocade, the box is quietly lying a women's inner armor, a pair of women's boots!

"This is ......" Jia Jia stretched out her hand and touched her inner armor, her fingertips cold.

"In order to save Xiao Wu in exchange for the secret method, except for the monthly spiritual stone, my own formation mage, and a Jin Dan riding pet Xiao Dan is worth a little money, I can't take out anything of value anymore! If you confess these two things with blood, then the matter of the other side of the immortal technique will be revealed, and you will never mention it again, you think about it carefully!"

"Ma Lao, you don't have to say it!" Jia Jia picked up the box on the ground, "Since I figured it out back then, I won't mention it again! I won't do the first thing, the kind of thing that is sent back! I'm not the kind of person who is so-called upright." If he sends it, I will accept it, why not? If I accept it, I will expose it, and if I don't accept it, will I still care about it in my heart?"

"You are really different from Xiao Wu, if she is here, she will definitely send the things back as they are, and then let people say that this matter has been revealed! But in the end, whether you remember it or not, only Xiao Wu himself knows best!" Ma Lao said with a wry smile, paused, and then pointed to the object in the box and said: "This inner armor is called a phantom, a magic weapon of the first grade of the Xuan level, and it is also the highest level magic weapon you can use. Women's boots are called chasing the wind, and they are also a magic weapon of the first grade of the Xuan level, which can speed up people's footwork, and with your magic skills, it is not difficult to retreat in the plain of ten thousand beasts!"

"I'll be careful!" Jia Jia put the two things into the storage bag, and Ma Lao threw another storage bag over, "The old man grabbed a handful of array plates at random, you bring them, there are all kinds of arrays! You go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Plain, with these things, you won't lose your life easily!"

"Aren't you worried about me?" Jia Jia's eyes burned, "Besides, it's just that there are more people from Shushan who have been training with us this time, it's not a big deal, they don't eat people!"

"I can't follow you to the Plains of Ten Thousand Beasts this time!You should be careful when you're alone!" Ma Lao waved his hand, signaling that Jia Jia could leave!

"Ma Lao, take care!" Jia Jia bowed deeply to Ma Lao, glanced at Ma Lao in the smoke, turned around and walked out of the hut, and when he walked to the front yard, Xiao Dan also flew over and rubbed her hand affectionately, patted Xiao Dan's head, and said a few words, and Jia Jia left Qixingzhuang.

Looking at the chic way of the girl's departure, Ma Lao muttered to himself: "Shen Liguang, there is such a thing as decisiveness, she also has it! It will not be less than others! You are looking at the wrong person!"
