Chapter 40 Junior Brother, please come in quickly!
Chapter 40 Junior Brother, please come in quickly!
"I'm sorry to have kept you both waiting."
Fang Qi sat down in the main seat with a beaming smile, and Jia Si and Jia Nian followed suit, serving him tea.
The tea has a rich and pleasant aroma that is refreshing and invigorating.
Xu Helin and Jiang Sui couldn't help but glance at the tea again.
Such fine tea should be savored slowly while incense is burned.
However, Fang Qi picked up the teapot and gulped down several mouthfuls.
This tea is no ordinary tea; it's a spiritual tea from the cultivation world. He had previously gone into seclusion to break through to the Transformation Realm, and his blood and qi were restless, so he was very thirsty right now.
Xu Helin sighed inwardly at the waste of such fine tea.
"I was unaware of your arrival, and I apologize for not welcoming you properly." Fang Qi had drunk most of the pot and felt much better.
Seeing Fang Qi's lack of manners, Jiang Sui immediately snorted, "Mr. Fang is very busy with official duties; it's truly not easy to meet him."
"Congratulations, Mr. Fang, on your breakthrough."
Xu Helin bowed respectfully, already treating Fang Qi as an equal.
In Tianjin martial arts, there is a hierarchy of seniority, but this hierarchy is primarily based on strength.
Fang Qi broke through to the level of Hua Jin with the posture of "Dynamic Scenery", which is enough to be considered as a senior.
"Master Xu, how is Fang Jing recovering?" Fang Qi asked Xu Helin, passing by Jiang Sui.
"She's alright, but she'll need to rest for a while longer. Thank you so much, Mr. Fang, for saving my daughter."
Xu Helin spoke sincerely, and after saying this, he reached into his robes as if to take something out.
But when he touched what was in his arms, he stopped.
He came today mainly to thank Fang Qi, so he brought "Xingyiquan Huajin Pian" (a book on the transformation of internal energy in Xingyiquan).
However, Fang Qi has now broken through to the level of Hua Jin, which greatly diminishes the value of the "Xingyi Quan Hua Jin Pian". If he were to use this item to express his gratitude, it would seem insincere.
After a brief hesitation, he took out a gold-edged booklet: "Please accept this, Mr. Fang."
Looking down, one could see the words "Dragon and Tiger Twelve Divine Fists" written on the booklet.
Fang Qi's eyes brightened slightly.
Martial arts are divided into martial arts theory and martial arts skills. The former strengthens the physical body, while the latter focuses on combat.
Beyond martial arts skills, there are even more powerful ultimate techniques.
He remembered that Xu Fangjing had revealed that her father had a signature skill called "Dragon and Tiger Twelve Divine Fists". It was with this skill that her father defeated three martial arts masters from Tianjin and established the Xingyi Quan school.
"The curator is very kind."
Fang Qi naturally did not refuse. After accepting the technique, he asked Jia Si to bring a packet of spiritual tea and two healing pills. Xu Helin felt ashamed upon seeing this.
It wasn't because of the fine tea and rare medicine, but because of Fang Qi's attitude.
Perhaps, if I had listened to Fang Jing back then, none of those things would have happened.
"Mr. Fang has now reached the Transformation Realm. Have you ever considered opening a martial arts school?"
According to the rules of the martial arts world in Tianjin, only those who have reached the level of "Hua Jin" (化劲) are qualified to open a martial arts school.
"This..." Fang Qi thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't have that plan for the time being."
Martial arts schools are indeed quite profitable, but there's no need for that right now.
"If Mr. Fang is interested, please let me know at any time, and I can introduce you to some martial arts masters."
"Thank you for your trouble, Master."
The two exchanged pleasantries, causing Jiang Sui's expression to change several times.
Finally, Xu Helin whispered a few words to Jiang Sui, telling him not to be impatient, and the third senior brother of the martial arts school managed a forced smile: "Mr. Fang, could you please describe in detail what happened at Huangcheng Temple yesterday?"
Fang Qi didn't want to pay attention to this arrogant person, but since he was capable of neutralizing internal energy, thanks to Wu Zhan's two martial arts techniques, "Tai Chi Neutralizing Internal Energy" and "Returning to the Origin Qi Gong," he still gave a brief account of what happened yesterday.
Of course, the details will not be disclosed.
"In that case, I won't disturb Mr. Fang any longer. Farewell!"
After listening, Jiang Sui found no important clues. His expression turned somber. He simply bowed and left.
"Brother Jiang was just a little hasty because he was eager to find Wu Zhan, please don't take offense, Mr. Fang," Xu Helin explained.
Fang Qi waved his hand, not minding, and chatted with Xu Helin for a while longer, from cultivating the Transformation Realm to Xu Fangjing, and the collaboration to open a martial arts school, etc.
After chatting for a while, Xu Helin felt more and more that the young man in front of him was truly extraordinary, with potential, understanding, and vision.
"Master Xu, there's something I really need your help with," Fang Qi suddenly said.
"Mr. Fang, please feel free to say so, as long as I can do it."
"Does Master Xu know where would be a suitable place to build a temple?"
"Hmm?" Xu Helin's expression changed. "You're trying to... lure the snake out of its hole?"
Fang Qi nodded with a smile.
......
In the world of cultivation, on the Jade Mountain Islands, at Red Jade Island.
Fang Qi sat in the cultivation room, with several small paper figures of different shapes placed in front of him.
These paper figures were created by him based on the paper figure of a little monk that he obtained from Huang Cheng Temple during the Republic of China era.
"Without the aid of spiritual energy or the control of spiritual consciousness, it can transform itself to resemble a real person..."
He had been studying it for more than a day, but apart from discovering the special nature of the paper and the method of folding the paper figures, he had not made any other discoveries.
"Let's look into it when we have time."
Fang Qi put away the paper figures, went to the storage room, prepared several hundred kilograms of flesh and blood, and went to the crucian carp bay to feed the fish.
Eleven golden-lined blood carp diligently performed their duties, while the blue-sea tidal rays and the shimmering silver eels thrived.
"The fifth line has emerged..."
Fang Qi fed the largest golden-threaded blood carp two Spirit Feeding Pills and discovered that the blood carp had advanced to about the fifth level of Qi Refining, and each of its golden threads showed signs of "red blood staining gold".
Xu Xingzhi's Spirit-Nourishing Pill is indeed a good thing.
After feeding the fish, Fang Qi took the spirit stones and headed to Tianzhen Peak.
The breakthrough in the Republic of China took a few days, so I need to hurry and find Yuan Jia to retrieve the formation.
......
Tianzhen Peak.
"Senior Sister Yuan, Junior Brother Fang isn't the kind of person who breaks his promises. Something must have happened to prevent him from coming to retrieve the formation."
Xiao Dacheng stood in front of Yuan Jia's cave, explaining incessantly.
According to the previous agreement, Fang Qi should have come here to retrieve the formation three days ago, but he has not seen him yet, and more importantly, he cannot contact him.
Yuan Jia then asked Xiao Dacheng about the situation. Upon hearing this, Xiao Dacheng immediately tried to communicate telepathically, but received no response.
Having no other choice, Xiao Dacheng personally went to apologize and explain.
"In that case, Senior Sister Yuan, I'll pay for the remaining gold for Junior Brother Fang's formation."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Jia's cold expression softened considerably. Looking at Xiao Dacheng's empty right arm, he felt a pang of pity: "Junior Brother Xiao, people's hearts are unpredictable. You'd better take care of yourself."
The two formations were nothing to her; she had ways to sell them and recoup her losses. She just disliked people who broke their promises.
Just then, Yuan Jia and Xiao Dacheng simultaneously received a telepathic message.
"Junior Brother Fang!" Xiao Dacheng was overjoyed.
Yuan Jia frowned slightly, but still waved her sleeve and opened the cave's protective barrier.
moment.
"Greetings, Senior Sister Yuan and Senior Brother Xiao." Fang Qi arrived at the entrance of the cave, cupped his hands in greeting, and offered the spirit stones.
Just now, Xiao Dacheng secretly transmitted the details of what happened to Fang Qi.
He knew he was late, so he was sincere.
Out of respect for Xiao Dacheng, Yuan Jia took out two sets of array plates and said coldly, "Spirit Gathering Array, similar to the last one."
"This set is the 'Golden Ring Trapping Immortal Formation,' which has the effect of warning and trapping enemies. There is also a smaller Golden Ring Sword Formation hidden inside, which can be activated through this formation, but it requires the consumption of metal-attribute spirit stones."
Warnings, trapping the enemy, and an offensive sword formation!
Fang Qi was overjoyed.
With this formation, his cave dwelling on Crimson Jade Island can truly be called a cave dwelling.
"Thank you, Senior Sister." He then took out another hundred spirit stones to express his gratitude.
Yuan Jia's anger subsided considerably when he saw that Fang Qi had added an extra hundred spirit stones, but his expression remained cold. "I'm going to start cultivating."
After saying this, he was about to enter the cave.
"Senior Sister," Fang Qi called out to Yuan Jia, "I wonder if what we said last time still stands?"
What did we talk about last time?
The Five Qi and Five Elements Profound Treasure Scripture?
The anger that had just subsided surged up again.
Yuan Jia didn't turn his head, his voice as cold as ice: "Shut up!"
The stone gate of the cave descended mercilessly with a thunderous roar.
"Junior brother, let's go," Xiao Dacheng advised from the side.
Fang Qi stood at the doorway, patted his waist, and a wisp of gas seemed to fly out.
next moment.
Rumble!
The stone gate to the cave ascended rapidly, even faster than when it had just descended.
"Junior brother, please come in!"
Yuan Jia reappeared before Fang Qi and Xiao Dacheng with a look of anxiety on his face.
