Chapter 6 Karma from the Past, Fixing the Yang Zho

　　At the end of the day, Zhang Yan read out sixty-four pieces of Taoist secrets and placed them in front of Bianqiao's eyes. 　　Cold sweat beaded on Bianqiao's forehead, to be honest, he could not understand one or two of these techniques, but that day, Hu Shengyu had personally said that this scripture poem could read out a total of sixty-four dao techniques, and now Zhang Yan's book secretly matched Hu Shengyu's words, which was sufficient proof that he could really understand the true meaning of it. 　　His hands in his sleeves gently trembled, obviously known that he was losing, but his mouth was still holding out, saying: "This 'Manqu Jing Poetry' is very difficult and complicated, this interpretation of senior brother is fast, but whether it is correct or not Bian Mou is still unknown, to be taken to Hu Sheng Yu to identify the authenticity of the poem again." 　　Seeing that Bianqiao had clearly lost, but still playing the trick of not recognizing it, the crowd of onlookers looked at him with contempt, and even more people spoke out to sneer a few words. 　　Bianqiao despite the boiling anger in his chest, but on the surface can only pretend not to hear, the heart is secretly hate, secretly said: "This time and first let you and so on a few days of complacency, to be back to clean up not too late!" 　　Zhang Yan let out a cold laugh and said, "In that case, this dao know-how will be left at Zhang Mou's place, and it will not be too late for Steward Bian to come back to find Zhang Mou after recognizing the authenticity of this dao know-how, so I will take my leave now." He unexpectedly received the thin paper with the etched text along with the Zhi He Dan into his sleeve, and without saying a word, he got up and left. 　　Bianqiao never thought that Zhang Yan said to leave, he got up and chased after a few steps, looking at Zhang Yan's back several times want to open his mouth, but then swallowed the words, thinking of Hu Sheng Yu to ask himself to ask for this dao know-how in the coming day, and he could not take out ...... 　　His face suddenly a burst of white, muddy did not pay attention to the foot pavilion steps, a stagger, almost fell to the ground, although relying on both sides of the servants to help to not make a fool of themselves, but it is also a big loss of face, and no longer dare to stay here for a few more moments, hurriedly woe and go. 　　This time to make Bianqiao defeated, Zhang Yan heart but not much pleasure. 　　Bianqiao but is the stream of slaves, this person although followed Hu Sheng Yu quite a lot of time, but two eyes cloudy, heavy breath, a glance can be seen on the body does not have any cultivation, although the hair black teeth, but Zhang Yan can conclude that it is a long period of time to serve the reason of the good pills. 　　Life is just a hundred years, only for those yellow and white things busy, in the end is not a billet of yellow earth? Obviously in the treasure mountain also do not know, just a sacrifice for the end, greedy for small profits in front of the rat only. 　　I just heard that Hu Sheng Yu this person is extremely short-sighted, his own offended his steward, I do not know what will be the reaction? 　　Zhang Yan smiled, he had already taken this consequence into consideration before and had a plan to deal with it. 　　Shaking his head, he put this matter to the back of his mind, and focused on organizing the gains of the day, after all, Bianqiao brought the contents of the Dao Shu Fa know-how is not something that the average person can see, but it is cheaper, after all, it is just to enhance their cultivation is their own fundamentals. 　　Just he did not expect, this incident triggered the consequences but more than he imagined much bigger, just a few days, his reputation has spread throughout the Cangwu Mountain, the three views of the disciples have to look for him to talk to make friends. 　　At first, Zhang Yan still patiently deal with, but later felt annoyed, simply no longer go out to decipher the Taoist books, closed door enlightenment, which only subsided a lot. 　　This day Zhang Yan fiddled with the hands of the remnants of the jade, he vaguely felt that this piece of jade in which there seems to be a lot of secrets have not been excavated, before his cultivation is low, so a lot of places in the conjecture can not be confirmed, just when he wanted to try to try to think in his heart, but there are people outside the gently tapped on the door. 　　Zhang Yan couldn't help but be surprised, ever since he had pushed for seclusion, there had been very few people visiting him. 　　"Which senior brother is outside the door?" 　　The person outside the door softly shouted, "Young Master, I'm Zhang Xi." 　　Zhang Yan burst with joy and said, "Oh, it's Uncle Xi? Come in quickly." 　　He got up and opened the door, only to see a middle-aged man in his early forties with an honest appearance standing in the doorway in a serene manner. 　　This Zhang Xi is the only servant he brought with him before he went to Cangwu Mountain, grew up in his mansion since childhood, generous and honest, was originally his father's book boy, memory of his predecessor from when he was not a subordinate, but when the uncles and elders to look at. 　　After Zhang Yan went up the mountain, Zhang Xi has been living under the mountain, the day before yesterday he got a lot of food, but also sent down a lot of people. 　　It was just that Zhang Xi now had a sad face, as if he had something on his mind. 　　Zhang Yan looked at his complexion and said with concern, "Uncle Xi, the night is bleak and cold in the mountains, why did you go up the mountain at this time?" 　　Zhang Xi bowed his head and said, "It's been three months since I've seen young master, now that spring is cold and young master has always been thin, the old slave was worried in his heart, so he came up to take a look." 　　Zhang Yan laughed cheerfully and said, "Cultivators like me eat the wind and drink the dew, the cold and heat don't invade us, so there's no need for Uncle Xi to worry." 　　Zhang Xi glanced at Zhang Yan with a look of desire to speak. 　　"Uncle Xi came just in time, tonight will be here to stay, and I say something interesting about the mountain, Cangwu Mountain has a lot of beautiful scenery, some other day and then bring some food with the people who buy down the mountain." Zhang Yan can naturally see that Zhang Xi has a reason for going up the mountain, but he is a person with a shrewd mind, and is not eager to ask, just a greeting. 　　Seeing that Zhang Yan was about to go inside, Zhang Xi suddenly pulled his sleeve, "Alas, young master, old servant I have something I have to say." 　　Zhang Yan turned back and said gently, "Uncle Xi, you brought me up since I was young, so there's no harm in saying what you have to say." 　　Zhang Xi sighed repeatedly and said, "Young Master has been on this Cangwu Mountain for three springs and autumns, counting with his fingers, how many people can be seen to have become Immortals and become Taoists? The old master was the governor of Yunzhou, and before he died, he had high expectations for you, hoping that you would shine, you should be studying for the exams, how can you waste your time here!" 　　Zhang Yan laughed, he walked two steps, stood in a place, stretched out a finger pointing to the cave wall, said: "Uncle Xi, look, this above a poem accompanied me for three years, but I always see but do not know, today a look, is actually deep in my heart." 　　Zhang Xi was surprised at how Zhang Yan suddenly got involved in poetry, but since the young master was interested in poetry, of course he was happy to see it, he had also read poetry and books, he went over and looked up, and found that the poem was written in the early year of Yongping, so he knew that it was already one hundred and thirty-three years ago, but the handwriting was even deeper into the wall than the first carving. 　　He slowly read: "Golden Palace withered bones yellow mud mound, turbid wine half a cup sacrifice public vassal, this day a sleep yellow sorghum dream, only ask the immortal does not ask the sadness ......" 　　Zhang Yan let out a sigh of emotion, "A sleep of yellow sorghum dream this morning, only ask the immortal not to ask for sorrow, well said, well said! See, Uncle Xi, this is exactly the reflection of my Zhang Yan's mind." 　　Heaven is unending, being reborn again, the path of the Great Dao in this life is clearly in front of him. How could he waste the opportunity given to him by Heaven and go back to covet earthly riches? 　　Zhang Xi shook his head in dismay, the young master had read too much about immortals, and was deeply poisoned by this, how could he listen to and believe in the illusory things of the immortals? He sighed: "Young master, your qualifications are not high, there is no hope of cultivating immortality, why do you suffer ......" 　　"Not highly qualified?" 　　Zhang Yan, who originally had a bland expression, looked slightly different and frowned lightly as he said, "Uncle Xi, where did you hear this?" 　　Yang Xi was startled and seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, and immediately hemmed and hawed. 　　Zhang Yan's gaze flickered and he sighed, saying, "What did the Zhou family say to you when you came?" 　　Zhang Xi did not think twice and said, "The Zhou family said ......" 　　Before he finished, his face turned white, and he knew that he had spoken out of turn, his lips shivered a few times, and he knelt down with a thud, pulling Zhang Yan's robe, sobbing, "Young master, the Zhou family found me and said that they knew that you were practicing here, and they asked me to persuade you to go down the mountain, or else when you try the Zhou family's formidable tactics, young master, the Zhou family is very powerful. We can't afford to mess with the Zhou family." 　　Is it really the Zhou Family that has come to our door? 　　A brilliant light flashed in Zhang Yan's eyes, he shook his head and said, "Uncle Xi, you're being fooled, if the Zhou family knew where I was what else would they need to find you for? Wouldn't it be superfluous." 　　"What?" Zhang Xi froze, "Young Master is saying that the Zhou Family doesn't know you are here?" 　　Zhang Yan sneered and said, "They knew that I was in Cangwu Mountain earlier, but this is not his backyard, so it will take some effort to find me, but once you come, they will naturally be able to find me easily." 　　"Ah?" 　　"Haha, after a few years in the mountains, brother-in-law has grown a lot." 　　With a long laugh, a valiant young man dressed in a white jonquil shirt turned in from outside the door, his eyes were long and narrow, the bridge of his nose was straight, his mouth was like a line, and a sense of arrogance permeated between his eyebrows. 　　He measured Zhang Yan several times with a scrutinizing gaze, and suddenly smiled and said: ''Sister-in-law, seeking a long life has ten thousand ups and downs and a thousand hurdles, like your qualifications, your lifelong achievements are limited, there is a sister in the family on the top, naturally, she can protect you for a lifetime of peace and wealth, why bother to be in this mountain with the cold dew and barren grass? Or return home, in the future carefully take care of parents, as a mortal to spend the rest of his life, is not it free and happy?" 　　Not waiting for Zhang Yan to open his mouth, he smiled again and said, "Although you went to the mountain privately this time, but your parents and family also know that you are under the spell of others, and will not blame you, and quickly go back with me." His words sounded like an exhortation, but in his tone, an unquestionable stance was evident. 　　Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Parents and family? Whose parents, whose family?" 　　Speaking of his predecessor's experience was also strange. Three years ago, that is, when he was sixteen years old, married Ding Yang Zhou's Zhou family Miss Zhou You Chu as his wife, and this woman after worship, the bride in the bridal chamber actually body great release of light, said he is the reincarnation of the goddess, and now full of disaster grudges, is about to ascend to the Immortal Que, he took care of the parents of the earth, a hundred years later, will be ferrying him to the heavenly court to enjoy the ultimate happiness. 　　Zhang Yan's predecessor also listened to these words, although his wife is arrogant, often the subordinate as a general call, but still no complaints, single-mindedly serve the goddess parents, only hope that one day to enjoy the heavenly paradise. 　　But one day came an old Taoist stood at the door sneering, and pointed out to him, he realized, where is what fairy goddess, clearly is the cultivation of Qi practitioners, although the two in the eyes of ordinary people is no difference, but the old Taoist said, only to know that the Qi practitioners are just practicing the God rushing road, the delusion of the heavenly deity is how ridiculous. 　　Zhou Youchu was originally a disciple of the Jade Sky School Spirit Cliff, in order to cultivate a superior way, so the magic method of reincarnation, just this life, if no one to take care of their parents will be morally dissatisfied, hindering the work, so he sought Zhang Yan so a fatherless, motherless, the family is still a thousand hectares of good land of the wrongdoer to support their parents, pay for the Heavenly Dao. 　　If the old man did not point out the mystery, then Zhang Yan this life is not only just married to a titular wife, but also need to work hard to support his wife's family, not only on behalf of others to suffer, in the end, or fall into a void. 　　At that time, sixteen-year-old Zhang Yan learned the truth, indignation under the old man instructed to come to the Cangwu Mountain, also want to cultivate immortal Tao, vowed to seek justice. 　　Zhou Youchu this life, although his parents are the direct descendants of the Spirit Cliff, but ultimately still mortals, and do not know this inside the barrier, can not wait for Zhang Yan is not there, just as much as the annexation of Zhang's property, so Zhang Yan away for three years, Zhou Youchu and do not know. 　　Until a few days ago, she suddenly felt in the body of Zhang Yan cast "soul-attracting art" suddenly disappeared, only to find out that it is not right, to find the Zhou family to ask, only to know that Zhang Yan has been gone for three years long. 　　But the strange thing is, Zhou Youchu even projected that Zhang Yan's whereabouts, it seems that there are high people to cover up the sky, and the Lingyi on the closure of many years, there is no way to ask him to project, under no circumstances, the order of the same in the mountains of monasticism of the third brother of the Zhou Zi Shang down the mountain to find out what happened. 　　Zhou Zishang dare not be slow, Zhang Yan relationship is significant, involving his second sister can be cultivated into a superior technique, he had to be careful. 　　Although he could not find Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan is with Zhang Xi together, and indeed after some projections, Zhou Zi Shang did not take long to find Zhang Xi at the foot of Cangwu Mountain. 　　For fear that Zhang Xi refused to reveal where Zhang Yan, so he ordered a subordinate to test Zhang Xi, and sure enough, under the fear of Zhang Xi went up the mountain at night, followed by him Zhou Zi Shang easily found Zhang Yan's residence. 　　Learned that Zhang Yan really in the mountains of cultivation, Zhou Zi Shang can not help but eat a shock, Zhang Yan once the cultivation of success, the natural loss of heavenly Dao fell back on his big sister Zhou You Chu's head, in this way, the previous efforts that is all gone to waste. 　　Zhou Zishang originally wanted to directly tie Zhang Yan down the mountain, but saw Zhang Yan breath sheep, face like jade, clearly already is the cultivation of Zhu Yuan. Although the mouth said disdain, the heart is a little surprised, is Zhang Yan in the Cangwu mountain got a master valued not? 　　If so, it is difficult to do. 　　Zhang Yan is now a disciple of the Mingcang school, easily captured, I'm afraid it will cause discord between the two schools, then again, Zhang Yan on the mountain something else fishy, exactly who is behind the instigation is not yet known. 　　Thinking about it, Zhou Zishang decided to use soft means to force Zhang Yan to come down from the mountain. 　　However, when he heard Zhang Yan say the words "whose parents, whose family", he was indifferent with a sneer, but there was not a trace of fear showing, he couldn't help but feel suspicious, and suspected that there was someone behind the back of Zhang Yan, otherwise where would he have gotten such a big nerve? 　　He secretly speculated that that person was most likely the opponent of the Spirit Cliff Master, such a person he himself was definitely unable to provoke, but this matter could not be given up on this, and he rarely came down to the mountain once, and was about to let his master take a good look at his own means with this matter. 　　Zhou Zishang slightly frowned, also not angry, no longer do what persuasion, not a word more, turn around and go. 　　From Zhou Zishang into the door to leave, from the beginning to the end, Zhang Yan is as usual, but is next to Zhang Xi face terrified color. 　　Zhang Yan pondered, this Zhou Zi Shang actually didn't waste his words to force himself to go down the mountain, and just retreated? 　　He would never believe that the Zhou family would give up so easily, it seems that this cheap brother-in-law of his is not a simple character, there should be a bigger backhand waiting for him. 　　He knew very well that Zhou Youchu wanted to cultivate into a superior Taoist method, he would never allow himself to become an immortal, and neither side had the possibility of compromise. 　　Zhang Yan looked at the gloomy sky outside, thought that after today, the pressure of the Zhou family is afraid that it will come like a storm, fortunately, his big plan has already begun in advance, if Zhou Zi Shang came a few days earlier, he really can not cope. 　　When he thought of this, he smiled confidently, Zhou Zishang has a good saying, seeking immortality has ten thousand bumps, a thousand passes, this does not only refer to the obstacles in cultivation, the confrontation between people, killing and fighting is not in it? 　　If he can't even break through this barrier, then how can he talk about the Great Dao!
