At the same time.

In the thatched hut in the palm of his hand, the old man's complexion changed drastically, revealing surprise, and then he heard a "boom", and the whole hill shook.

Many Confucian students on the mountain were immediately frightened and looked a little flustered, but they all calmed down quickly, after all, many of them had condensed their hearts, even if they were not condensed, they were all close, although they had been trapped for a long time and their minds were distorted, but they still had control over their state of mind.

However, the reason for their panic is that the mountain has never undergone such a change since they came here.

"What does such a change portend?"

"It's never happened, and there's got to be a reason. ”

"Is it because of that Qiu Yan? I heard that he was not assimilated and trapped by Shilin, but came to explore the true meaning of Shilin. ”

......

When everyone was talking and guessing, a vast artistic conception suddenly came, all over the mountains and down, and I saw above, in the dark space, a dazzling light crossed, like a comet, towards the dark depths!

"What's that?"

With the glory gone, the vast artistic conception dissipated, but the afterglow is for everyone to reminisce, they are all people who have read books, each has their own attainments in the text, and can better appreciate the preciousness of that artistic conception.

That artistic conception seems to be very consistent with my current heart, but it was just a hurried feeling, which actually touched my heart and made me have the urge to splash ink. ”

"That's right, I feel the same way, and it seems that from that artistic conception, I can find a way to calm the evil thoughts in my heart. ”

"I feel that the thinking that has been rigid for a long time is revitalized, and if I calm down and think, I will have the opportunity to condense my heart!"

In the crowd, some people who were responsive and had excellent memories recalled what they had just felt and realized where the opportunity was. Some people didn't care about anything else, so they just turned around and went to their houses.

In the bamboo forest, in the thatched hut.

The old man sat still, but there was a strong thought that filled the surroundings, which made the thoughts in the air sluggish, bringing a sense of depression and heaviness!

Even Zhao You's constantly losing Wen Si stopped because of this thought, but Zhao You was not happy because of this, but became more and more frightened, because of the proximity. So he could clearly feel that there was an undercurrent hidden in the body of that kind-looking old man, like a volcano about to erupt!

In the face of this thought, Zhao You only felt his own insignificance, as if he would be crushed if he was not careful, and he couldn't help but be silent.

After a long while, as the old man exhaled, the oppressive atmosphere dissipated. This made Zhao You breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he fell back into a panic - his literary thoughts were still lost.

Suddenly, the old man raised his hand and grabbed it, and the surrounding Wen Si immediately followed this action. rushed towards Zhao You, condensing his whole body, so that Wen Si would no longer flow out.

"This ......" Zhao You was stunned for a moment and looked at the old man. With an incredible expression on his face, he immediately reacted and hurriedly gave the old man a big salute. thanked him in his mouth, but he was very confused in his heart.

"I was hiding before, and I heard Mr.'s secret, so if he didn't kill me, why would he save me?"

Just as his thoughts were fluctuating, the old man spoke: "You don't have to guess, old decay can hinder the flow of literature and thought, but the symptoms are not cured, in the future, you have to come over once a month and let me perform the spell, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain." ”

Hearing this, Zhao You's heart sank, and then he understood, why the old man didn't kill himself, it was clearly because he controlled his own life and death.

The old man said again: "This time you want to break the rules and act dangerously, the old man will not be held accountable, but if you don't take it as an example, what you hear and see ......"

"Sir, rest assured, the student has not heard anything, let alone seen anything. Zhao You hurriedly expressed his position.

The old man was noncommittal, but said: "After you go back, you don't have to take today's events to heart, what to do, how to do it, go ahead." ”

"Yes. Zhao You left tremblingly, but after leaving the hut and the external pressure disappeared, he felt the heart-devouring pain in his heart.

Freedom is close at hand, but it is missed, and years of literature and thinking have been ruined, and life and death have been mastered.

Thinking of this, he was shocked.

"I used to just use the name of the old gentleman to fake the tiger, but now I have to take refuge completely, and I can no longer be independent, so I count...... Speaking of which, since he has such cultivation, how can I not be discovered by him when I am hiding outside, could it be that all this is caused by his indulgence? What ......is his purpose?"

Thinking about it, the fear in Zhao You's heart became stronger and stronger, realizing that he could only walk on thin ice in the future, and then combined with many encounters, he immediately felt that life was worse than death, but he didn't have the courage to face death, and he was tormented for a while.

Not to mention that Zhao You left, but said that in the thatched hut, the old man was still sitting quietly, and suddenly, the ground around him shattered!

From the flying debris, the old man's words came out—

"In the end, I still didn't hold back, then again, how can jealousy be easily surrendered? I was in the prime of my life, conceited and knowledgeable, crossed the sea of learning, turned around at the ends of the earth, and came here to break through the three levels, just because of a moment of negligence, success and failure, trapped here for nearly a thousand years, during which I met several people who broke through the pass, all of them were misled by me, and their souls and thoughts accumulated in my body, if this Qiu Yan also fell into this......"

Thinking about it, he shook his head.

"However, Qiu Yan has not accumulated enough after all, even if he can pass the three levels, it is impossible to reach the final place, the Shilin aura on his body is thin, it is obviously the first time he has entered the forest, and he will come back in the future......"

As the thought fell, the hut fell silent again.

..................

On the other side, Qiu Yan, who was being talked about by the old man, was immersed in a strange feeling-

In Qiu Yan's consciousness, it was full of brilliance, and that light did not come from the sun, but from the spirits of the Dao, but these spirits were illusory and uncertain, and they could not be absorbed by others.

Even so, Qiu Yan still got a lot of inspiration from it and gained something.

"These sage spirits undoubtedly originate from Sun Sheng, and that illusory tree should be the projection of the tree belonging to Sun Sheng in Shilin, which can be detected and observed by me, probably the harvest of breaking through the second level, although I can't see the effect now, but after I go back, I can ...... it if I deduce it carefully."

He was thinking about it, when suddenly the soul body shook, and the light in his consciousness suddenly flourished, making Qiu Yan feel like he was waking up, he turned his mind, and his perception spread, and then he noticed that the surroundings of the soul body had been filled with bright light since when, and the illusory street had long been shattered and gone, and there was not even a fragment left.

Only the article he wrote remained.

Suddenly, a ray of light flew from afar, stopped far away, turned into a suspended light cluster, separated a ray of light, and in a blink of an eye, it was in front of him, combined with a passage in Qiu Yan's article, and then changed rapidly, and soon formed a scroll of bamboo slips.

The bamboo slips are written with the words "honor and disgrace", exuding a vast idea, faintly echoing with the "Persuasion" in Qiu Yan's soul and connecting with each other.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yan was stunned for a moment, but before he could come back to his senses, a ray of light flew out of the distant light cluster again, which was also combined with a paragraph in Qiu Yan's article, and then turned into a roll of bamboo slips, with the word "correct name" written on it.

At this time, Qiu Yan finally realized what was happening in front of him, and felt the heavy and solemn artistic conception emanating from the two rolls of bamboo slips, and his heart set off a stormy wave.

""Honor and Disgrace" and "Correct Name", these are the two articles left by Sun Sheng, and the breath emanating from the bamboo slips is similar to the spirit of "Persuasion" that I condensed.

Just when Qiu Yan was surprised, the light in the distance flew out again, and combined with the rest of the articles, it formed the third volume of bamboo slips, with the words "Wang Ba" written on it.

Seeing this third volume of bamboo slips, Qiu Yan felt a little overwhelmed even if he was still a soul body, and the surprise in his heart was really difficult to describe.

The article "Wang Ba" is also from the hand of Sun Sheng.

However, Qiu Yan condensed the divine soul in the end, and derived the primordial divine consciousness, so he settled down, turned his mind, and figured out the cause and effect: "It seems that by writing with literary thoughts, breaking the second level of illusion, you can get the corresponding sage inheritance, and which one is specific should be related to the article written, such as my article, which involves three ......"

Qiu Yan's thoughts had not yet fallen, and another ray of light flew in, but it was combined with the title of the essay "Turning Sex into Hypocrisy" and turned into a volume of "Sexual Evil".

"Another volume?"

Without waiting for Qiu Yan to think carefully, he heard a "boom", and the light cluster in the distance suddenly exploded, and a few rays of light flew straight away, surrounding Qiu Yan, and then quickly condensed, revealing a roll of bamboo slips!

Qiu Yan's eyes widened suddenly, revealing a look of surprise, and then a look of surprise and uncertainty appeared.

With a sweep of his eyes, Qiu Yan saw a few familiar words on a roll of bamboo slips-

"The Theory of Music", "The Rich Country", "The Twelve Sons", "The Theory of Heaven".

Counting the previous four volumes, there are a total of eight sage spirits!

The articles represented by these names are all from Sun Sheng's handwriting, and Qiu Yan has read some of the articles in the classics, and he knows a little, but he is not proficient, at this moment, he feels the breath of a roll of bamboo slips, and immediately realizes that it contains the true meaning of the article!

It's just that......

"The three levels have not been cleared, why do they reveal so many sage spirits, is it too bizarre? If you pass this level, you can get these inheritances, this harvest is too rich, is there something strange in it?"

At the beginning, Qiu Yan was inevitably surprised, and then turned into surprise, but after experiencing surprise, now only vigilance remains.

However, those eight volumes of sage spirit did not intend to leave him time for careful reflection, and after each of them appeared, they first rotated around Qiu Yan, and then moved in unison, rushing towards the soul body!

Qiu Yan's heart tightened! (To be continued......)
