Chapter 879 Elder Zheng


    Two days later, it was the formation conference and the last event of the Tao Conference.


    In the past two days, Mr. Xun has not arranged any formation homework for Mo Hua, but instead asked him to relax properly.


    Because of such a long time of training in formation, I have learned everything I should learn.


    In the past or two days, there is no need to collapse so hard.


    When Mo Hua had free time, he went to Gu''s house to have a meal.


    It was not that he took the initiative to go, but that Aunt Wan specially invited him to go.


    Mo Hua has been very busy these days and has never been to the Gu family. Wen Renwan has always been worried about it.


    Now that she learned that he was a little free now, she specially bought a table of spiritual meals to make up for Mo Hua, so that Mo Hua would not lose weight if she was hungry.


    The ink painting was so kind that it was hard to refuse, so I went to have a full meal.


    After dinner, Yuer went to the yard to catch butterflies and play with it.


    Wen Renwan handed an invitation to Mo Hua.


    Mo Hua was stunned and asked, "Aunt Wan, this is..."


    "This is the invitation to the Formation Conference." Wen Renwan said.


    "Watch the ceremony?"


    "Well," Wen Renwan said gently, "I know you like formations. You will definitely go to the formation conference. But such a grand event is crowded with people. Ordinary disciples used to stand in the distance and watch the excitement, and they could not see anything else."


    "It''s different with this invitation. These are the four major sects. They specially sent invitations to major families. They invite us to watch the ceremony. The location is also very high. You can see clearly in the competition on the discussion..."


    Mo Hua was surprised and then said, "Then isn''t this invitation very expensive?"


    Wen Renwan nodded, "It''s rare. If it weren''t for the heads and elders of the upper class of the fourth and fifth-grade big family, ordinary monks wouldn''t have it."


    She received this invitation because she was both the legitimate daughter of Wen’s family and the next head of Shangguan’s family.


    Mo Hua said again: "There is only one invitation, I''m given it to me. What about Aunt Wan, you, don''t you go and see it?"


    Wen Renwan said, "I won''t go."


    Ink painting is curious.


    Wen Renwan said, "I went there and sat with the Shangguan family. Those people were sarcastic and I don''t like them. Maybe they would have to join Yu''er to get some leisure."


    Mo Hua nodded.


    Wen Renwan was afraid that Mo Hua would mind and said, "You are different, don''t worry about them. Just take the invitation, find a seat, drink tea, eat fruits and vegetables, and look at yourself, and don''t have to pay attention to the Shangguan family."


    "And they will pick gifts to me, but you are a guest, and you are also a supporter from Mr. Xun. There are a lot of people in the Shangguan family, and they are elders after all, so they will never make things difficult for you."


    "The formation conference is once every three years, and the opportunity is rare. If you can watch a close-up game, you should benefit a lot..."


    Wen Renwan thought about ink painting very thoughtfully.


    Mo Hua is grateful in her heart.


    If it had been before, he would have accepted this invitation, but now the situation is a bit special...


    Mo Hua said, "Aunt Wan, I can''t ask for this invitation."


    Wen Renwan was a little surprised, "Why?"


    Mo Hua was straightforward and liked formations. She thought Mo Hua would definitely accept the invitation happily, but she didn''t expect that he would refuse.


    Mo Hua was confused for a while, and finally said frankly: "Aunt Wan, I may... also want to attend the formation conference..."


    Mr. Xun told him not to tell outsiders about this matter.


    But Mo Hua thought about it and found that Aunt Wan was not an "outsider" in fact, she was not a "outsider".


    What''s more, the day after tomorrow is the formation discussion meeting, and it''s nothing to say at this time.


    Wen Renwan was stunned for a long time before she realized that Mo Hua was talking about "attendance" to the formation conference, not just going to see it.


    Wen Renwan couldn''t help but be shocked: "You are only in the middle stage of foundation building, and your entry period is not enough. Can you participate?"


    Mo Hua said: "I don''t know either. Mr. Xun asked me to go."


    He actually didn''t know whether he was in compliance with the rules or not.


    Anyway, Mr. Xun asked him to go, so he just went.


    Mr. Xun’s arrangements will never be wrong.


    “Mr. Xun…”


    Wen Renwan was stunned and then thought to himself no wonder, but at the same time he felt a little emotional.


    Mr. Xun loves ink paintings too much.


    Such an important competition in the Taoist Conference can also make exceptions to allow ink paintings in the middle stage of foundation building to participate.


    I guess I am making the experience of ink paintings rise in advance and adapting to this big scene...


    This means that Mr. Xun has high hopes for the future of ink painting.


    Wen Renwan was very relieved.


    She thought for a moment and decided to say, "Since you want to compete, I''ll go and have a look the next day."


    Although Mo Hua wanted Aunt Wan to take a look, she couldn''t help asking, "Aunt Wan, don''t you like the people in the Shangguan family?"


    Wen Renwan snorted softly, "How can they compete with you? I went to see you in the competition, what does it have to do with them."


    Mo Hua smiled.


    Wen Renwan patted Mo Hua''s shoulder and said happily:


    "No matter what, at your age, it is already amazing to be able to attend the Taoist conference, no matter how good your grades are."


    "Your parents will definitely be proud of you, but it''s a pity that they are far away from the state and cannot be with you."


    "If you don''t dislike me, Yuer and I will be half of your family. If you attend the formation conference, I will go and see it no matter what..."


    Mo Hua felt warm in her heart and smiled and said, "Thank you Aunt Wan."


    Wen Renwan couldn''t help laughing when she saw Mo Hua''s clear smile.


    …


    After that, he stayed leisurely in the Gu family for a while, and then Mo Hua returned to the sect.


    Aunt Wan personally sent him to the door and said some encouragement, asking Mo Hua not to worry about it, and try it out to win glory for the sect.


    Mo Hua replied with a smile, "Yes."


    Later, Mo Hua left Qingzhou City in the Gu family''s carriage and headed to Taixu Gate. When he passed by Taixu City, because it was still early, he got off the car and went to the Formation Pavilion as usual, and bought some strange array books and formation maps that he had never seen before to broaden his formation experience.


    When he went out, Mo Hua accidentally met a disciple from Taixu Sect.


    This disciple has a Chinese face, square eyebrows and eyes, and is very familiar with ink paintings.


    "Zheng Fang?"


    Zheng Fang was also surprised when he saw Mo Hua, "Senior Brother, what a coincidence."


    "Are you buying something?" Mo Hua said.


    "Yeah." Zheng Fang said, "I have used up all my writing and ink, so I can''t bear to exchange my merits, so I''ll buy some with the spirit stone."


    "Oh." Mo Hua nodded.


    He has endless merits, and his pen and ink are usually exchanged directly for merit.


    Zheng Fang looked at Mo Hua and asked, "Senior Brother, are you free? I want to buy a few array books, I would like to ask you to refer to it."


    When he first started, Zheng Fang, who had a deep knowledge of his family, was very dissatisfied with the fact that the ink painting was "speaking" by Mr. Xun to become the "Little Brother" of the formation.


    But after so long together, Zheng Fang has long been convinced.


    Since then, I almost always call myself "Xiao Senior Brother" and my attitude is very admirable.


    Ink painting just happened to be a little time.


    And as a "little senior brother", helping and helping the junior brother is considered a duty.


    Mo Hua nodded: "Okay."


    After that, Mo Hua turned around and visited the Form Pavilion with Zheng Fang, "instructing" him what he should buy.


    The current formation background of ink painting has already become a bit "perfect" within the second grade category.


    He has seen too much, learned too much, and practiced too much.


    Not only the formation, but also the authenticity of the ordinary array book, the quality of the array brush, and the quality of the spiritual ink, he could tell at a glance.


    Zheng Fang got the advice of Mo Hua, bought the array book, brush and ink, and left together. When he walked to the door, Mo Hua said:


    "I want to go back to the sect, do you want to be together?"


    Zheng Fang shook his head and said, "No, I have an elder who wants Hui people today. I have been taught by him since I was a child and want to see him off."


    "Elder? From the Zheng family?"


    "Um."


    "Is the formation very powerful?"


    Zheng Fang nodded and said, "It''s amazing! He is one of the most powerful true elders in our clan."


    Mo Hua''s eyes lit up and she wanted to ask again, but she was afraid that it would delay Zheng Fang''s time to see him off.


    Just at this moment, a man with half-white hair and straight hair, straight body, and solemn and upright eyebrows and eyes came over.


    "Zheng Fang."


    The man called out.


    Zheng Fang turned around and immediately said respectfully: "Little uncle."


    Mo Hua was stunned, looked up at the visitor and saw that he was majestic, with deep eyes, and there seemed to be thunder in his eyes, with a momentum of not being angry but powerful.


    And he has a profound cultivation and feels like he is transformed into a feather.


    The real person in Yuhua Realm!


    Zheng Fang hurriedly introduced to the ink painting:


    "This is the elder I told you. I am my little uncle, a fourth-grade formation master, and an elder in Qiandao Sect."


    When I heard the front, I admired it in my heart, but when I heard the last three words "Qian Daozong", my expression became colder.


    He has never had any good feelings for Qiandao Sect, so he has no idea of ??talking.


    The person coming was Elder Zheng.


    He didn''t care about Mo Hua, a little disciple, until Zheng Fang introduced Mo Hua:


    "Little uncle, this is what I mentioned to you, my youngest brother from Taixu Sect."


    Elder Zheng was a little surprised.


    When Zheng Fang told him, he thought that the "little" of this "little brother" was of the younger generation.


    Because they are all of them, they are recommended as senior brothers, so the word "small" is added.


    But now I saw it with my own eyes and realized that this "Little Senior Brother" is really a little...


    Looking at him being young, very tender and fair-looking, it is almost hard to believe that he would be the "little senior brother" of Taixu Sect.


    But there is no order and success in Taoism, those who are good are respected.


    You cannot judge people by their appearance.


    Since he can be a "little senior brother", it means that at least there must be something extraordinary in the formation.


    Elder Zheng''s expression was a little gentle, "Little brother, what''s your name?"


    "Ink painting." Ink painting said.


    "Ink Painting..." Elder Zheng read it silently and couldn''t help but be amazed, "Using ink painting array, dots of ink like painting, a good name."


    Mo Hua was praised for his name and nodded.


    He also felt that the name his parents gave him was very good.


    Therefore, I have a much better impression of this "Elder Zheng".


    He actually wanted to ask the true elder of the Zheng family for some advice on the formation, but he was a little concerned about his identity, so he asked:


    "Are you really the elder of Qiandao Sect?"


    Elder Zheng shook his head and said, "Not now."


    Mo Hua was stunned, "No?"


    Elder Zheng said, "I quit my position."


    Mo Hua was very pleased: "That''s good!"


    Elder Zheng was a little surprised and said with a complicated expression: "That''s the position of elders of the top Gandao Sect among the four major sects. Ordinary monks cannot ask for it. I won''t do it anymore. What''s the point?"


    "It''s said that ordinary monks cannot ask for it. If you really have the ability, why should you suffer this leisure?" Mo Hua said. According to his understanding, this kind of sect has strict hierarchy and strict distinction between superiors and inferiors.


    If you want to do well, you have to pretend to be "grandson" and "grandfather" on the lower side, otherwise you will be angry everywhere.


    The words "Mo Hua" have come to the heart of Elder Zheng.


    Elder Zheng asked again: "If you are given a quota for disciples of the Kindao Sect, would you be willing to go?"


    Mo Hua shook her head: "They won''t accept me."


    I really won''t accept me.


    He took the "Entermination Order" given by his master and ran thousands of miles to the Gandao Sect. He was still disliked by others for his poor qualifications and was rejected.


    The threshold of the Gandao Sect is too high, and he cannot reach it.


    He still remembers this account in his heart.


    Elder Zheng didn''t know the reason, and asked again, "What if they were willing to accept you? Will you go?"


    Mo Hua still shook her head, "It''s not rare if you don''t go."


    He is in Taixu Sect now, so he doesn''t do it too well.


    Mr. Xun taught him the formation, and the ancestor of Houshan taught him the magical thoughts to turn into swords.


    So many elders of the sect are kind to him, and there is also a group of junior brothers who call him junior brothers every day.


    Compared with Taixu Sect, it is not worth mentioning.


    Elder Zheng saw that Mo Hua was sincere in his expression and did not speak for false words. He didn''t care about the one of the four major sects, and suddenly became interested: "It''s a fate to meet. I''ll invite you to have tea and snacks." Zheng Fang, who was standing beside him, opened his mouth wide.


    This is the first time he has seen himself, a serious and rigid uncle, invite a foundation-building disciple to have tea.


    Mo Hua was not polite, and smiled and said, "Thank you Senior Zheng." Elder Zheng then went nearby, found a teahouse, and asked for a private room, and Zheng Fang was accompanying him, and invited Mo Hua to drink tea and eat pastries.


    The two chatted during the meal.


    The ink painting is not restricted by Elder Zheng’s identity as the Yuhua Realm, and his conversation is calm and generous.


    After all, he often hangs with the ancestor Dongxu in the sect.


    Over time, the pattern will naturally occur. When you get along with other high-level monks, you will naturally not be frightened.


    The two mainly talk about formations.


    The more he talked, the more surprised Elder Zheng was. He didn''t expect that the young brother, who was the niece, who was always talking about every day, was really so profound in the formation, so he asked: "Little brother, where are your family inheritances and where are your masters?" Mo Hua shook his head and said, "I am a casual cultivator, and there is no family inheritance..." Although there is a master inheritance, it is not convenient to say.


    "Random cultivator..." Elder Zheng was even more surprised.


    He never expected that the current academic and academic field could still accept it. A random cultivator with a bad spiritual root and no family background.


    Aristocratic families monopolize, sects set up barriers, and poor people have no place to establish themselves or study.


    It is very difficult for casual cultivators.


    Elder Zheng sighed in his heart.


    He was curious again, "Since he is a casual cultivator, how can he worship Taixu Sect and how can he learn this skill?"


    On the contrary, the seemingly declining Taixu Sect actually has such an unconventional style of seeking Taoism.


    As expected, it is actually hard to win the reputation.


    The ancestor was also misunderstood at the beginning.


    Elder Zheng was in a state of great emotion for a moment.


    Mo Hua secretly glanced at him and asked in a low voice: "Senior Zheng, I heard that the Zheng family inherited the thunder formation?"


    Elder Zheng was stunned and nodded, "Not bad."


    Mo Hua felt itchy and wanted to ask what the principle of the thunder formation was, but she was afraid of rashly speaking and asking about other people''s inheritance, which was a bit rude.


    Elder Zheng seemed to see Mo Hua''s idea and said: "The Thunder Formation is an ancient formation, and it is the core formation inheritance of the Zheng family and cannot be passed on. Moreover, this formation has extremely high requirements for the disciples'' minds and incorrect minds and weak Taoism, and those who do not have strong hearts will not be able to learn it easily." Mo Hua nodded and agreed deeply.


    Elder Zheng was curious, "Don''t you think I''m trying to evade you?"


    "Essential?"


    "The Taoist heart is always illusory..." Elder Zheng said.


    "How could it be?" Mo Hua shook her head.


    Speaking of the Taoist heart and the spiritual thoughts, it involves his "professionality".


    Mo Hua said with a serious face: "The heart of Tao is very important. A monk seeks Tao, he must have an upright and firm heart for seeking Tao."


    "Otherwise, the Tao will be long, everything will be full of, demons and ghosts, and evil thoughts will grow... Sooner or later, you will be lost in all kinds of chaos and forget your original heart."


    "Or indulging in your own strength, indulging in personal fame and fortune, or indulging in abusive and common desires, you will eventually lose your Tao heart."


    "As long as the Tao heart is destroyed, no matter how high the cultivation level, the power, or the reputation is, you will be just a puppet of selfish desires, which is easy to be played with..."


    "Mo Hua tells it in a leisurely manner based on what you see and feel in the way of the divine thoughts.


    Elder Zheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that he had met too late.


    This kid, how well he said!


    Why didn’t I meet such a disciple when I was in the Gandao Sect?


    He even poured a cup of tea for Mo Hua himself.


    After that, Elder Zheng was silent for a moment, and suddenly an impulse broke out in his heart:


    Such a good seedling, I have to teach him something.


    But the Zheng family''s thunder formation was not approved by the ancestor, and it could not be taught... Elder Zheng asked, "Do you have any formation you want to learn? Except for the thunder formation, as long as I know it, I can teach you." Mo Hua looked happy.


    He didn''t expect that this seemingly strict Senior Zheng was also a great person.


    Just...


    What should I ask for?


    I pondered the ink painting.


    First of all, you have to be the second-grade formation, and even the third-grade one is taught, I can’t do it either.


    But among the second-grade formations, especially the common Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, Mr. Xun has taught himself too much.


    No matter how powerful this Senior Zheng is, he should not be as good as Mr. Xun.


    There are quite a few special formations.


    But the thunder formation cannot be taught. Among the other gossips, the special Gan formation and Kun formation, senior Zheng should not be able to do it either.


    Even the ultimate formation is not good.


    The ultimate formation is all confidential and extremely precious. If you ask about this kind of inheritance yourself, you will be a little too thick-skinned.


    Moreover, I don’t have enough spiritual consciousness now and can’t learn the ultimate formation.


    Then what else can I ask?


    Mo Hua quickly passed the formation that he could learn at present and after learning it next, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he asked:


    Nowadays, my disciples have studied formations to this point?


    The hidden formation concepts of thunder magnets, secondary thunder patterns, and secondary thunder flow are all things that the masters of the third and fourth grades will only study after they have a special inheritance...


    But it is a bit difficult.


    I am a fourth-grade formation master. If I answer those very basic formation questions, it would be meaningless.


    Elder Zheng pondered for a moment and nodded, "The secondary thunder pattern and its accompanying secondary thunder stream, that is, the ''yuan magnet'' in the mouth of the monk, are extremely weak and obscure thunder. In terms of this, it is also a derivative of the ''thunder array'', but from the real thunder array, it has different natures and uses very different uses."


    "The Zheng family inherited the thunder array, but over the years, the derivatives and secondary formations related to ''thunder'' have also been involved in some ways."


    "Although the Yuan magnetic array and the secondary thunder pattern, these are also rare formation inheritances, but they are different from the thunder array. They are not really top secrets, and they do not eliminate external rumors. I can tell you..."


    "Mo Hua was very happy, "Thank you, Senior Zheng."


    "Then Mo Hua asked Elder Zheng a lot of questions about the relevant array knowledge of the Yuan magnetic array, the secondary thunder pattern, and the secondary thunder stream.


    Elder Zheng said everything.


    The two had a great time talking.


    Until the sky got darker and in the evening, Elder Zheng was about to leave, and the ink painting that benefited a lot was still unsatisfied.


    He was reluctant to leave and asked, "Senior Zheng, are you going to Hui tribe today?"


    Elder Zheng nodded, "There is still a practice banquet in the evening, and at the hour of Xu, he will leave on Yundu." He was carrying the inheritance of the thunder formation and resigned from the position of elder of the Gandao Sect, which invisibly offended the Gandao Sect.


    It is best to leave early in the academic and state circles, so as not to cause trouble.


    Mo Hua is a pity, "Where is the formation conference? Don''t you go and see it?"


    Elder Zheng shook his head with his expression, "I won''t watch it."


    As long, it doesn''t matter...


    His expression is a bit complicated.


    The Taoist Conference seems to be a grand event, but in the final analysis, it is just a "game" of aristocratic families.


    It has nothing to do with the vast majority of ordinary monks in this world.


    Even the future conference on Taoism will be a "game".


    The so-called pride of heaven, who does not "consider the world", takes advantage of all fame and fortune, and then uses this to reach a high position step by step to seek personal interests.


    All of this will gradually become "disconnected" from the lowest level monks in the world.


    The unknown majority will be gradually forgotten.


    This is the general trend and is almost irreversible.


    Especially for the formation with a high entry threshold, the aristocratic families will intensify their monopoly and become higher and higher barriers, and there is almost no luck.


    There is no suspense and nothing to watch at this convention conference.


    Ink painting is a bit regretful, but I can only say goodbye:


    "Then I wish you a good journey, a safe Hui tribe, and a step further in the formation in the future."


    Elder Zheng smiled slightly, "I wish you a young and promising life and a limitless future."


    Mo Hua squinted her eyes and smiled.


    After that, the few people parted.


    Mo Hua and Zheng Fang went back to Taixu Gate side by side.
