Chapter 7 The Law is Powerful, Borrowing Names to

  "Senior Brother Ai, if the Duke is informed of this matter, he will definitely not be able to spare Bian's life, so please ask Senior Brother Ai to save Bian's life." Bian Qiao bowed down with a big salute to the young man in front of him.   The matter in front of the Thousand Zhang Rock was a big deal, and almost no one in the disciples of the Three Guan Lower Courtyard knew about it. However, Bianqiao's loss of face was still a small matter, that scripture poem originally Hu Shengyu had another use, that day he only used it to make things difficult for Zhang Yan, he did not expect to be taken away by Zhang Yan under the pretext that it was a pinch of his lifeblood.   He had the intention to take back, but these people around him to oppress the ordinary disciples okay, on Zhang Yan this type of cultivator is undoubtedly self-inflicted humiliation.   Luckily, Hu Sheng Yu is always in seclusion and cultivation, and arrogant, not many friends, so far no one in front of him to talk about this. Therefore, Bianqiao specially came today to ask the well-known Ai Zhongwen of the lower courtyard of the Three Guan to intercede and ask for the scripture poem back, no matter what, we must first pass this hurdle in front of us before saying.   Although Ai Zhongwen is only a named disciple, but one, he comes from the Xuanmen family Anfeng Ai, two, he has a wide range of contacts, three, he and Zhang Yan and the same Shan Yuan Guan disciples, the upper courtyard master Shi Shoujing master intends to accept him into the door, sooner or later will also be an entry disciple, so the three Guan up and down the majority of the people would like to sell him a face.   Ai Zhongwen laughed, "Senior Brother Bian is not in a hurry, wait for me to ask this Zhang Yan where he came from first."   He waved his hand, and the long followers around him understood and checked a roster on the bookshelf behind him, flipped through it, and said, "Zhang Yan, a native of Dingyang, Donghua, came to the mountain in the seventeenth year of Cheng'an."   Ai Zhongwen was surprised and said, "No more?"   The long follower nodded.   Ai Zhongwen pondered, although there were many wizards in the cultivation world who were proficient in etchings, most of them were disciples of the Xuanmen family, as they all had family members who taught them the method of deciphering Taoist books, since Zhang Yan was proficient in etchings, he naturally wouldn't be without a provenance, just why hadn't he heard about it before?   At this time, a disdainful voice beside him said, "It turns out to be nothing more than a nameless child, I thought it was a three-headed, six-armed, I don't know where he got the superior deduction method, he actually dared to bully Brother Bian's head, Brother Bian don't worry, your business is naturally my business, I will help you to seek justice, and also tell that child to know what the rules are!"   Bianqiao was overjoyed at his words, and immediately bowed down, saying, "If Senior Brother Lin is willing to intervene, Bian will naturally be grateful, and there will be a generous gift to send after the matter is accomplished."   The name of "Senior Brother Lin" is Lin Tong, he has a brother Lin Yuan who is the disciple of Shan Yuan Guan, he has always been good friends with Ai Zhongwen, this time he came to the door to look for Ai Zhongwen to have a drink, and happened to bump into this matter.   Ai Zhongwen glanced at Lin Tong and reminded, "I heard that Zhang Yan is also accomplished in building Yuan, senior brother Lin must not underestimate this person."   Lin Tong laughed out loud and said, "I've been on the mountain for nine years, and I was instructed by my elder brother Lin Yuan until two years ago when I was able to 'condense the Yuan and show my intention', so how long has he Zhang Yan been on the mountain? I think it's mostly a blackmail, false words and exaggerations!"   Bianqiao eyes flickering, Zhang Yan's cultivation that day he saw with his own eyes, is certainly not wrong, but at the moment in front of Lin Tong face is inconvenient to say, the heart is secretly happy, if Lin Tong head, no matter how the end of the small thief Zhang Yan can not get good to go, if you can provoke Lin Yuan that is even better.   Ai Zhongwen frowned silent.   Lin Tong over there is no matter so much, he has always come from the big, Lin family in the Wei dynasty is also generations of relatives, plus in the Cangwu mountain has Lin Yuan as a backer, developed the habit of the eye without a child, which will put Zhang Yan in the eye? At that moment, through the strength of wine, pulling Ai Zhongwen together to go out, before leaving, threw down the words: "Bian brother and wait here for me to wait for the good news, haha."   Ai Zhongwen is not as optimistic as Lin Tong, initially heard that Zhang Yan one day to decipher the three books have their own history of Taoism, in which do not even need bamboo chips deduction, the heart is also very surprised.   To know the ordinary Taoist book is okay, the profound and difficult Taoist book interpretation has always been waste of time, such as a book of thousands of words of the Taoist book, stupid people often seven or eight years can not be penetrated. In his own hands there is a "heart question", he pushed the silent performance, used five days to the whole 3,612 words all deciphered out, which is enough to be proud of in the same door, but compared to Zhang Yan is still far worse.   He had heard that there were some geniuses in the world who could decipher the etchings just by relying on their endowment and enlightenment, but he had never seen them before, could it be that this Zhang Yan was like that?   Apart from that, there are two other possibilities, one is that Zhang Yan has recently been favored by a senior person and has been secretly taught the method of divination, and the other is that Zhang Yan has hidden his origin.   He thought so is reasonable, as long as the divination method is clever enough, even if the enlightenment is almost, deciphering the book of the Dao is not difficult, but this kind of method is not ordinary people can get, nowadays most of them are in the hands of the major Xuanmen family, each family has a unique method of deciphering the etchings, the deeper the foundation, the deeper the inheritance of the family, the more clever the method.   He didn't know that although Zhang Yan didn't have any profound techniques, but on the one hand, he was extremely gifted in interpreting the etchings, and on the other hand, using more than ten times the time of a normal person to make projections, even if the techniques were even worse, it would be enough to even out the gap.   In Ai Zhongwen's opinion, if Zhang Yan was from a Xuanmen family, even if it was a fallen family, it would not be unusual for him to have done this.   But hypothetically, what if the previous inference held true?   "A high ranking person in the Guan ......"   Ai Zhongwen's heart stirred, and a thought rose violently, could it be that the teacher's Jingji was so vivid that he wanted to take in another initiated disciple?   Zhang Yan had been on the mountain for three years in obscurity, but this time, he had made a splash, and the more he thought about it, the greater this possibility became.   The more he thought about it, the more likely it was. He was thinking on this side, but his footsteps lagged behind a bit, gradually being pulled away by the anxious Lin Tong.   Lin Tong was about to walk up the trestle leading to Zhang Yan's cave, when he looked up, he saw a person walking towards him and impatiently said: ''Who is blocking the way? A good dog doesn't block the road! Why don't you still get out of the way with that you, Master Lin?"   The man on the other side let out a cold snort.   Ai Zhongwen felt a sudden palpitation, and hastily stopped his footsteps, only to see that Lin Tong on the opposite side was already lying on the ground, he could not help but be shocked, and said offhandedly, "Fellow Daoist, please leave me alone."   That person coldly looked at Ai Zhongwen, he immediately felt like a pot of cold water poured down from his head, chilled to the core, hands and feet stiff.   Fortunately, the man did not say anything more and walked straight past him.   Ai Zhongwen looked at the back of this person in a daze, after a while, only then went forward to help Lin Tong up, asked: "Lin brother is not well?"   Lin Tong sat up half-sitting blankly, he only felt a heavenly rotation at that time, when he came back to his senses, he was somehow lying on the mountain path, he patted his head, his eyes showed a piece of horror, and said, "Elder brother Ai, who is that person? What a high cultivation?"   Although he was arrogant, but this will also know that this is encountered the high cultivation of the same way, Ai Zhongwen face heavy, the other party's body just now hidden clouds and haze scrolling, clearly is only after the opening of the veins of the phenomenon, and they and others are already immortal and mortal, thinking of this, he is also a burst of fear. However, he felt that the person seemed a bit familiar, and secretly said, "Looking at this person's face, could it be Zhou Zishang of the Dingyang Zhou Clan?"   Last year, he followed his grandfather in the East China Continent sects conference from a distance to see Zhou Zishang a glance, the Jade Heavenly Sect, after all, is also no less than the Mingcang Sect of the great sect, but the two people position is a world of difference, Zhou Zishang is the Elder's personal disciple, Zhou Clan is a Xuanmen family, he Ai Zhongwen, although from the Anfeng Ai Clan, but is only a side branch, not enough to qualify for going up to the climb.   He looked ahead, why did this Zhou Zishang appear here? Could it be that he had come to visit Zhang Yan?   This thought startled him, what was the origin of this Zhang Yan that even Zhou Zishang had to pay a visit?   Could it be that his earlier deduction was wrong, and Zhang Yan was actually a deep-seated person?   Sucked in a breath, Ai Zhongwen had a plan in mind, said: "Lin senior brother, just now this Taoist friend did not hit hard, but there is no guarantee that there are still some secret injuries, it is better to go back early to examine some good, Bian senior brother this matter will be handled by the senior brother me, how?"   Lin Tong hesitated for a moment, although in front of Bianqiao boasted, but still his own life is important, reluctantly smiled and said, "In that case, I'll trouble senior brother to take a walk."   Ai Zhongwen arched his hand and said no more, after seeing Lin Yuan off, he searched for Zhang Yan's residence along the trestle.   It wasn't long before he heard a mellow voice ask:   "Which senior brother is outside?"   Zhou Zishang hadn't been gone for long, Zhang Yan had been paying attention to the movements outside to prevent Zhou Zishang from leaving anyone behind to spy on him, and when he heard the footsteps outside, he heard the voice was calm and strong, and hadn't intentionally hidden it, so he took the initiative to ask.   Ai Zhongwen straightened his clothes, and before he could speak, he only felt a flash of shadows, and a person had already walked out from inside.   "But Senior Brother Zhang in person?" Ai Zhongwen took a step back, looked up and down, and couldn't help but praise, "Senior Brother is really as plump and handsome as rumored."   Although Zhang Yan is just an ordinary coarse cloth tunic, but on the good looks and figure, Ai Zhongwen has seen a few people can not compare, not only that, the other party in the eyes of the essence of the people, there is a sense of pressure, if not standing on the side of the trestle, a few so that he can not help but to retreat a few more steps.   To say that the daughter of the Zhou family to choose a son-in-law, first look at the fate and fortune, and then look at the appearance, and finally selected from among the millions of people selected Zhang Yan, which is enough to show that his body is full of money.   Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Senior brother is flattered, I am Zhang Yan, I don't know is how this senior brother is called?"   Ai Zhongwen smiled brightly and arched his hand, "District Ai Zhongwen."   "Oh?" Zhang Yan's complexion slightly moved, carefully sizing up the visitor for a couple of moments, and arching his hand, he said, "I've heard a lot about senior brother's great name."   Ai Zhongwen's name he had long heard of, it is said that this person has a very wide range of contacts, and the general disciples encountered some difficult to him will be generous, in the Cangwu mountain reputation is very good, and Bianqiao is the two extremes, on the contrary, it seems that the two people and a little friendship.   This person's appearance is not outstanding, medium stature, also can be considered strong and powerful, roughly see, perhaps he will be treated as a passer-by first-class, but his voice is low and magnetic, one can not help but listen to let the heart feel good, and his skin is warm and moist like jade, a pair of eyes flashed a bright light, apparently is also a cultivation of building yuan.   Zhang Yan secretly guessed Ai Zhongwen's intention, his mouth said, "Ai senior brother please sit inside, the cave is cold and wet, please do not take offense."   Ai Zhongwen laughed, waved his hand, and said, "I and other immortal cultivators with holding springs and lying stones, sleeping with the sun and moon, which has so much arrogance."   He was also not polite, striding towards the inside, halfway there, he suddenly turned back and said, "I heard that senior brother is extremely good at interpreting eclipses, I recently visited a book, Lin Yao Qifa, and I intend to ask senior brother to take a look at it, and if you have any insights, please give me a few pointers."   He took out a Taoist book and handed it to Zhang Yan, "I also know that Senior Brother is closed these days, so I don't dare to force myself, this book will be placed here, so it's not too late to talk about it when you have the time to do so."   Zhang Yan's expression moved slightly, the corner of his mouth smiled slightly, this Ai Zhongwen said politely, but in fact, it was clear that he was using the name of interpreting the book of the Dao to give it to him to read. This is a means to climb the friendship, but the other party acted freely and generously, and did not cause him to resent.   Moreover, this person was indeed worth making friends with.   He is not pretentious, immediately reached out to receive, said a polite words, made a "please" gesture.   After both of them sat down and chatted for a few moments, Ai Zhongwen suddenly asked, "When I came here just now, I saw a person who looked familiar, I wonder if he is also here to pay a visit to Senior Brother Zhang?"   Zhang Yan suddenly realized, no wonder Ai Zhongwen was so polite to him, the original root is here.   However, on second thought, and Ai Zhongwen such a person friendship, perhaps in the future will have to enter their circle, there is no identity to speak up is also inevitably much weaker, since the Zhou family in the use of him, why he might as well temporarily borrow the name of the Zhou family it? It would just be a collection of interest.   "Does senior brother mean Zhou Zishang?"   "Senior brother knows the Zhou Family's Sanlang?" Despite having expected it, Ai Zhongwen could not help but still be surprised in his heart.   Zhang Yan looked calm and said, "How could I not recognize him? Sanlang's elder sister is none other than my own wife."
