Chapter 314 Dark Moon
"Master, just open it and you will know!"

Qin Ke pretended to be mysterious.

"hehe!"

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "You kid!"

Then he slowly opened the box.

A yellowed book appeared in Chen Xuan's eyes.

"Book?"

Moreover, it is obvious that the book is quite old. Not only are the words on the cover blurry, but there are also cracks all over it.

You should know that the paper used by Dayu to make books is specially made, and under normal circumstances there is no problem in preserving it for a thousand years.

He looked up at Qin Ke, "What book is this?"

"I do not know either!"

Qin Ke answered straightforwardly, but when he saw Chen Xuan frowning, he quickly explained, "I saw this book in an antique shop in a small county town."

"According to the boss, it was left by a long-standing family, but it fell into decline and eventually came into his hands."

"This book alone cost me ten thousand taels of silver!"

"And that boss wouldn't even give me one or two ounces!"

Thinking of this, Qin Ke became furious. That fat boss was so stingy.

He didn't want a discount, but he was a prominent figure after all, so a discount would be a way of showing respect.

But bullshit!

The fat boss only cares about money and not people.

That scene made everyone who wanted to make friends with him at that time feel awkward.

In the end, Qin Ke didn't waste any words and just threw in 12,000 taels of cash, took the book and left.

"Ten thousand taels!"

Even Chen Xuan was shocked by the price. Just this crappy book?
"You are really rich!"

Chen Xuan was also teasing him.

"Master, didn't I see that this book is quite old? I thought there might be something special in it, so I bought it! But there is a spiritual power on this book, and you know my spiritual power, so only you can do it!"

He is not stupid!

This book not only looks ancient, it even has spiritual power, which is definitely unusual.

Of course, if you really get cheated, you just have to accept it.

Just consider it as a waste of 12,000 taels of silver. He doesn't need it now anyway.

"Ok!"

Chen Xuan nodded slightly. Qin Ke was certainly not stupid. On the contrary, he was very shrewd. He was just teasing him just now.

A mental force as thick as a finger stretched out.

Qin Ke's eyes widened immediately, "Master?"

"You better work harder. Don't wait until your master reaches the late stage of the immortal level while you are still in the middle stage!"

Chen Xuan smiled, of course it was also to whip him.

"Master is still Master, how can a disciple compare to you!"

Qin Ke couldn't help but sigh.

And he swore that this was definitely not because he was afraid of flattery.

Chen Xuan just smiled, then his eyes flashed blue, and at the same time he used his telepathy.

This book was too old, with cracks all over it, and he was really afraid that he might accidentally break it.

"boom!"

Turned into pieces.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s money or not. After all, it’s something Qin Ke gave him as a gift, and it’s a token of his love.

"Ok?"

Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"What a complicated formation!"

I couldn't help but mutter to myself, I didn't expect that this small book actually contained tens of thousands of formations, and they were interconnected.

If he didn’t have telepathy to see the essence of things.

If a powerful mental force were to break the formation, not only would the book be reduced to ashes in an instant, but people would also suffer.

"No, it's too complicated. Be careful!"

Chen Xuan withdrew his mental power.

"What's wrong, Master?"

Qin Ke asked in confusion upon seeing this.

"It's too complicated. I need Luan Ying's help. You haven't gone to the Third Court yet, right?"

"No! I came to you as soon as I got back!"

Qin Ke chuckled.

In his heart, nothing is more important than the Master.

"Okay, I know you have a filial heart, so go to the Sanfasi. Come here tomorrow, and if you have any questions, I will explain them to you!"

Although I have already instilled my own cultivation experience into him.

However, everyone's comprehension is different. The Nine Yuan Taoism is profound and mysterious. There is probably a lot that he cannot comprehend, otherwise he would not have not even reached the late stage of the Immortal Level after such a long time.

"Okay, I'll go to the Three Law Courts first. Master, please be careful!"

Qin Ke did not forget to remind him before leaving.

"Go ahead, I don't know yet!"

"hey-hey!"

Although he was scolded, Qin Ke left the study with a smile.

Chen Xuan shook his head and smiled.

This kid may not be very talented, but his filial piety is enough to make up for everything.

Then he sent a message to Luan Ying, "Come to the study!"

She was practicing and immediately opened her eyes with a look of confusion on her face.

Because Chen Xuan never disturbed her when she was practicing, so...something must be big.

So he immediately got up and went to the study.

"What's wrong, husband?"

The voice came in before Luan Yingren arrived.

I saw her walking out of the study in a panic.

"Husband!"

"See how anxious you are!"

Chen Xuan looked at her lovingly, "It's okay, just watch from the side later. If your husband's mental strength is insufficient, you can make up for it in time!"

Hearing him say that, Luan Ying suddenly became nervous, "Ah, I'm afraid I can't do it well!"

She really only knows how to practice and rarely uses her mental power.

He is a complete newbie among newbies.

"It's okay, don't be nervous, just follow your husband's instructions!"

Chen Xuan comforted her.

"Okay then. I'll do whatever you say."

"Ok!"

After nodding slightly, a mental force appeared and he used his telepathy again.

Two-pronged!

Chen Xuan looked extremely cautious as he controlled his mental power to enter the outer formation bit by bit.

Suddenly, the originally quiet yellowed book burst into a dazzling blue light.

Even the whole study turned blue.

"Katz."

Faint voices echoed in the room.

Chen Xuan unlocked hundreds of formations on the periphery in one breath.

But this is just the beginning.

Chen Xuan, who used his telepathy, knew that the outer formation was just an appetizer and was not too difficult. From now on would be the time to test him.

Looking at the densely packed runes, I felt goosebumps all over my body.

But
The arrow has to be fired when it is on the string.

Then the mental power entered the internal formation.

Luan Ying on the side stared at Chen Xuan with her eyes, trying to sense his situation at all times.

An hour!
Chen Xuan unlocked 10% of the internal formation!

Two hours!

Twenty percent!

Six hours later!

Half of the internal formation has been solved by Chen Xuan.

But at this moment, he had very little mental strength left, and his face turned slightly pale.

This scene made Luan Ying extremely anxious, with her brows furrowed.

However, she didn't dare to act on her own without Chen Xuan's instructions, for fear of making things worse.

"Replenish my husband's spiritual power!"

Chen Xuan's voice rang out in the room, and in an instant, Luan Ying released her Xuan-level mental power and entangled it with Chen Xuan's.

With her supplement, Chen Xuan's mental strength recovered quickly.

“Fortunately, we prepared in advance!”

Chen Xuan was glad in his heart that he was no longer the reckless man he used to be.

And this was all thanks to the two of them practicing the Art of All Things together, otherwise he really would not be able to break the formation.

that's it!
While Chen Xuan was solving the formation, he was also absorbing Luan Ying's mental power.

Six hours!

Only less than 10% of the internal formation remains.

Chen Xuan exhaled slightly, then asked, "How much mental strength do you have left?"

"It's too early. We've only consumed less than 40%!"

Luan Ying replied immediately.

"As expected of a Xuan-level spiritual practitioner!"

Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

He was absorbing and consuming at the same time, which was equivalent to double the amount, but after such a long time she only consumed less than four layers.

Now he has nothing to worry about.

Start to crack the remaining formations again.

Three hours!

The blue light on the yellow book slowly dimmed as if it was burned out, until it disappeared completely.

"call--"

“Finally it’s completely solved!”

Chen Xuan let out a long sigh. Even though Luan Ying was constantly replenishing him, at the moment of the end, that deep feeling of fatigue surged out like a tide.

At that moment, I even felt a black screen in front of my eyes.

Fortunately, it's finally over.

"How are you, husband?"

Seeing that his face turned pale, Luan Ying asked hurriedly with concern.

"fine!"

Chen Xuan smiled, but his eyes were fixed on the yellowed book in his hand.

"With such a powerful formation protecting it, I want to see what mystery it has!"

If it weren't for Luan Ying, he wouldn't be able to open it on his own.

At this moment, Chen Xuan was very much looking forward to it, and so was Luan Ying beside him.

Chen Xuan was very careful, fearing that his big movements would damage the fragile cover of the book, but when he opened it.

shocked!
He didn't recognize the words on it. They were all crooked and looked like ghostly characters. "Husband. This.?"

Luan Ying tilted her head and looked at him.

After spending so much effort, I couldn't recognize any of the words when I took a look.

But Chen Xuan was only stunned for a moment, and then he returned to normal after a moment, and became even more excited.

"It seems to be too ancient. This text should not be modern!"

Said slowly.

But the more this is the case, the more it demonstrates the value of this book.

Now all we have to do is find someone who knows these words.

"Yes! My husband is right!"

Luan Ying smiled and nodded. In her heart, Chen Xuan’s words were as good as heaven, and whatever he said was right.

tonight!

Chen Xuan really did nothing and fell into a deep sleep.

I didn't wake up until noon.

"Fuck! That hurts so fucking bad!"

He leaned on the bed with his upper body exposed, cursing.

My head is still a little dizzy now.

"My husband is awake!"

Ning Xin walked in slowly at this time, holding the freshly boiled medicine in her hand.

"Hmm! What is this? "

Chen Xuan pointed at the white porcelain bowl in her hand.

"I got some powerful medicine to nourish you. Come. I'll feed you!"

As she spoke, she sat down on the bed, scooped a spoonful of soup with a spoon, blew it, tasted it a little, and then fed it to his mouth, "Open your mouth!"

But Chen Xuan frowned.

A very disgusted expression, "What the hell is this? It makes me want to vomit just by smelling it!"

"Open your mouth!"

Ning Xin glared at her. She had gotten up early in the morning just to make this happen, and he still complained about it.

Besides, good medicine tastes bitter, and these are all ancient medicines that have been around for thousands of years. Isn't it normal for them to smell a little unpleasant?
"Oh!"

Chen Xuan opened his mouth obediently.

“It’s so bitter!”

Even his expression was distorted.

"Come, eat this!" Ning Xin was prepared and stuffed a hawthorn into his mouth.

"Well, that's much better!"

Feeling the sourness of hawthorn instantly eliminates the bitterness in your mouth.

"You were prepared a long time ago, why didn't you tell me just now?"

Chen Xuan protested.

"Humph!"

Ning Xin glared at him, looking very proud, and then fed him another spoonful of medicine.

After drinking it, Chen Xuan immediately opened his mouth and ate a hawthorn.

Just like that, under Ning Xin's service, Chen Xuan drank every drop of the medicine, no matter how bitter it was.

"Not bad, you behaved very well!"

Ning Xin patted his head and coaxed him like a child.

This made Chen Xuan roll his eyes.

But you know what, after drinking the medicine, I felt a lot better.

Then he dressed with the help of Ning Xin and went to the study.

About half an hour later, Qin Ke also arrived here.

"Look!"

Chen Xuan handed over the yellowed book.

"I want to see if ten thousand taels is worth it."

Qin Ke said with a smile, then he opened it and was stunned. His expression was almost exactly the same as Chen Xuan's yesterday.

"Master. This!"

After putting in so much effort, in the end... I can't recognize any words!

This is no one.

However, he was quick to react, looked at Chen Xuan and nodded slightly.

So he said, "Disciple understands!"

Then he came to the table, took out a few sheets of white paper, looked at the words on the first page, and wrote a word on each sheet of paper following suit.

After doing all this, he returned the book to Chen Xuan.

Holding a few pieces of paper, he said, "Then I will do it right away?"

Chen Xuan nodded with satisfaction. This was why he liked Qin Ke. He could guess what he was thinking without him even saying anything.

But he still stopped him, "Don't worry, you are now in the middle stage of the Immortal Rank, what is there that you don't understand about the Nine Yuan Dao Law?"

"That's a lot!"

Qin Ke didn't feel embarrassed. After all, Chen Xuan knew exactly what he was like.

Otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long and he's still only in the middle stage of Immortal Level.

Afterwards, Chen Xuan answered his questions one by one.

It didn't end until it was dark.

"Thank you Master!"

Qin Ke saluted respectfully. Although he had the experience of practicing with his master, there were some things he really didn't understand.

However, after Chen Xuan's careful explanation, I finally understood it.

"Okay, go back and practice well first, and then do this thing after you fully understand today!"

"Yes!"

Since Chen Xuan said so, Qin Ke also nodded.

In a blink of an eye, it was already seven days later.

"call--"

In the room, Qin Ke let out a long breath.

Finally I fully understood it.

"Master is Master!"

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and at the same time I respected Chen Xuan even more.

If it weren’t for the master, there would be no Qin Ke today.

When I went to see Zong Zheng yesterday, I was surprised to see that he had already reached the middle stage of the Immortal Realm. After all, his talent was average, and I didn't expect that he would have made such progress after leaving for more than half a year.

He was also promised that when he reached the late stage of immortality, he would be able to make him golden clothes.

You must know that one must be in the Profound Realm to wear the Golden Robe.

But as for Qin Ke, his confidant, he said he would reward him when he left last time, so he just did something big and directly promoted him to the rank of Golden Clothes.

"Golden clothes?"

Qin Ke murmured, and although there was a hint of excitement in his eyes, it was not enough.

His goal is to at least take the third seat in the Three Judicial Departments.

Even higher!

But the premise of all this is strength!

Muran!

Qin Ke smiled.

"It's still too early to think about this now!"

Then he took out the pieces of white paper from his arms, pondered for a moment, and left the room.

"You don't know any of them!"

Qin Ke walked out of an old bookseller with a frown on his face.

He spent the whole morning asking for advice from booksellers, antique shops, and even some elderly scholars in the city, but he didn't recognize anyone.

This is really a difficult problem.

"Where else can we go?"

Walking aimlessly on the street, searching in my mind for where else I could go.

As I was walking, I suddenly stopped.

Because he saw a red chess piece with a waning moon on it, but it was red.

"Yeah, how could I have forgotten it!"

Qin Ke cursed himself in his heart for being stupid.

Darkmoon Trading Company!

It has stood on the East Continent for hundreds of thousands of years. If they don’t know about it, then there is really nothing we can do.

Then he strode forward.

Qin Ke just entered the gate of Dark Moon Trading Company.

A young man who was originally very leisurely looked at him and immediately walked out from behind the counter.

"Isn't this Qin Baiyi from the Third Law Department? What a rare guest!"

He clasped his hands together and greeted people enthusiastically.

"you know me?"

Qin Ke looked at him with some confusion.

"You are a popular figure in the Three Law Departments, and you are dressed in white. My Dark Moon Company does business in Moran Mansion, how could I not know you!"

Seeing him say this, Qin Ke nodded slightly. There was nothing wrong with this explanation.

Indeed, he is a big shot in the Sanfasi.

"By the way, what's the shopkeeper's name?"

"Qin Baiyi, you are too polite. My surname is Jiang Qi, and all the businesses in the Moran Mansion are under my management!"

Hearing him say this, Qin Ke was also very surprised.

After all, he is so young and looks similar to him, but I didn't expect that he is in charge of all the businesses in Moran Mansion.

"Brother Jiang is really young and promising!"

Qin Ke also praised him generously.

"Qin Baiyi's words really flatter me. He is just a businessman. Compared with Qin Baiyi, he is far inferior!"

Jiang Qi was very humble and at the same time flattered Qin Ke.

For a businessman, although their Dark Moon Trading Company is powerful, Qin Ke is from Dayu after all.

It is better to live in harmony as long as it does not involve the bottom line.

"Brother Jiang, thank you for the compliment. It seems like we hit it off right away. You don't have to call me Qin Baiyi anymore. If you don't mind, call me Brother Qin. What do you think?"

"It's my honor, brother. Please come this way, Brother Qin!"

Then he pulled Qin Ke to the inner room and said, "Try the spiritual tea that my brother just got a while ago. It's very different!"

"Then I'm in for a treat today!"

The two men came into the inner room with smiles on their faces, like brothers who had known each other for many years.

"please!"

Jiang Qi stretched out a hand, Qin Ke nodded slightly, and then sat down.

see,

Jiang Qi then started to light the fire in the stove and boil water.

"It will take some time, Brother Qin, please wait!"

“Good tea worth the wait!”

"Hahaha, Brother Qin is right!"

Jiang Qi burst into laughter.

I have a lot of admiration for Qin Ke in my heart. It is extraordinary that such a person could come from such a small county like Daning!
