"Confucianism? Is he related to Confucianism?"
"It seems not surprising that someone from the Huajian Sect seduced the daughter of a great scholar." Gong Yihan made sarcastic remarks on the side.
"You're talking nonsense."
“(ˉ▽ ̄~) Tsk~~, believe it or not.”
Gong Yihan winked at Gong Lianxue playfully, signaling his disciple not to ruin his performance.
Gong Lianxue responded with a wicked smile.
Of course I won't tell the truth~
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
"I should have worn more clothes."
Li Qingcha muttered.
She found that the closer she got to the Star Point Tower, the stronger and colder the wind from the rooftop became.
However, it was just cold and didn't seem to do any harm.
Besides, she has a heat source——
Jade pendant with phoenix pattern.
This treasure was given to Li Qingcha by Kuang Taichu on the day when Li Qingcha was attacked by the big monk from the Western Regions. It seems to have the effect of clearing the mind and calming the spirit.
When the cold wind blew, the jade pendant began to emit warmth. Now, it can even emit a bright light, which is no less bright than the thousands of stars in the sky.
If I return to Beijing, I must thank them properly.
Li Qingcha took the jade pendant off his waist, weighed it in his hand, and then hung it around his neck.
The jade pendant slipped off.
If it were an ordinary woman, she would definitely fall into the ditch.
However, for Li Qingcha, the jade pendant did not encounter any obstruction and hung down naturally, even a little distance from his chest.
She was slightly embarrassed and hung the jade pendant back around her waist.
After all this hassle, the Star Tower is now in sight.
Li Qingcha pushed the door open and walked in.
The first floor is empty.
No, "empty" is not accurate, because there is a blank piece of paper on the ground, and next to the paper are an inkstone and a brush. There is ground ink in the inkstone, which is rich black.
"You actually want to write calligraphy..."
Tsk,
Li Qingcha felt uneasy when he thought of his soft-brush calligraphy that looked like it had been chewed by a dog.
Forget it, let me take a look at the surrounding situation before making a decision.
She looked around,
Strangely, there is no staircase leading to the second floor.
It seems that you have to light up the star on the first floor for it to appear.
As for that dim star...
Li Qingcha walked to the window and pushed it open.
Unexpectedly, the moment the window was opened, bright starlight shone into the first floor of Dianxing Tower.
Chapter 161: Six Desires
Add more.
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
"..."
"..."
"..."
An eerie silence enveloped everything.
Everyone looked at Wan Xingling with disbelief.
Because since Li Qingcha entered the Dianxing Tower, the star outside the first-floor window has been lit up, and it is extremely bright, brighter than any other star in the Wanxing Ling.
The Demon Sect Master recognized
The descendants of the Huajian School have a phoenix-patterned jade pendant given by Confucianists.
These two things are absurd enough.
but……
"I can't understand it," someone whispered.
No one said a word.
No one refuted.
Because "I can't understand" is what everyone is thinking.
From the perspective of outsiders, Li Qingcha lit up the first star without participating in any form of "exam", which was even more cruel than cheating.
Gong Yihan asked: "Isn't the first level a test of your state of mind?"
Zou Zian nodded.
"Correct."
"What's your question?"
"This...I don't know anymore."
"You're joking... um... judging from your expression, was that not a joke?"
"of course not."
Zou Zian was indeed confused, because he couldn't explain how Li Qingcha chose the stars.
Wu Cheng asked: "So Junior Brother Li has passed?"
Zou Zian was still unsure and shook his head.
Gong Yihan: "Don't know?"
Wu Cheng: “Failed?”
The two were a little unsure about Zou Zian's noncommittal attitude.
"What do you mean by shaking your head?"
Zou Zian sighed.
"Don't ask me, I'm just simply unsure."
The reason for the uncertainty is that there is no staircase leading to the second floor on the first floor of the Star Point Building, which means that the level he designed is still effective and you cannot go to the second floor if you don't pass it.
But the star outside one layer has indeed become bright.
Exceptionally dazzling...
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
Li Qingcha looked at the stars outside the window, not knowing what was going on.
If I remember correctly, Zou Zian's original words were: "Every time a person climbs a floor, he lights up a star."
This is clearly inconsistent with the current situation.
She thought about it and murmured to herself: "Could it be that Wan Xing Ling is broken?"
When Zou Zian outside heard these words, he was almost so angry that he vomited blood. However, because of the barrier effect of Wanxing Ling, he could only hold it in and sulk.
Li Qingcha pondered for a moment and felt that the only possibility was to write something on paper.
She picked up a pen.
Instantly, the oil lamp on the first floor wall of Dianxing Tower lit up.
The flames leaped and made slight sounds.
At the same time, a bronze mirror appeared in front of Li Qingcha.
The bronze mirror is almost three meters high and is surrounded by a gorgeous gilded frame. The supporting feet under the frame are round sculptures of two dragons playing with a pearl.
"Tsk..."
Li Qingcha was shocked.
She was very cautious in the unfamiliar environment. She did not stand directly in front of the bronze mirror, but approached from the side.
Strangely, the bronze mirror was empty, with nothing in it.
"trouble……"
Li Qingcha sighed and stood in front of the mirror.
At the same time, Zou Zian's voice rang out from inside the Star-Pointing Tower: "Buddhism defines six desires: one is color, two is appearance, three is dignity and posture, four is speech and voice, five is smoothness, and six is appearance."
The sound was like a loud bell, echoing in the building.
Li Qingcha raised his eyebrows.
"Superficially, the six desires of Buddhism are the six natural desires of ordinary people for the opposite sex, which can be summarized by the word 'love'."
"..."
"..."
"..."
There was a long silence.
I don't know how much time has passed, but Zou Zian's voice sounded again: "Good, you can participate in the six desires."
Li Qingcha complained in his heart:
Zou Zian really couldn't bear to play, so he said he was going to test three questions -
State of mind, potential, actual combat power,
In fact, there are so many traps hidden here. If I had answered incorrectly just now, I would probably not even see the "paper" for the first round.
She spat on the ground and then stared into the bronze mirror.
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
"Brother Zou, you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve~"
Gong Yihan was quite unhappy.
Zou Zian didn't even bother to explain. He had already done it, so he might as well just give up.
As long as you lie down first, you can't be knocked down.
Seeing her like this, Gong Yihan had no choice but to turn his attention back to Wan Xingling.
Gong Lianxue pulled her sleeves.
"Master, what is the six desires?"
"Let me ask you, what are the six desires of the Demon Sect?"
"The so-called complete life is when the six desires are all in their proper place. The six desires are sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and thought."
"That's right. The ninth level of the Demon Sect is the desirer, and each level up requires one to perfect one of them in turn until the second level, when one abandons delusion. And to examine the six desires is to test whether the state of mind matches the current level."
Everyone present understood.
Xiang Nanyu, who was standing by, pondered for a moment and asked, "Isn't this level very difficult?"
"It is indeed difficult. The difficulty lies in the word 'roundness'. Not many people can do it." Wu Cheng took over the conversation. "However, it is not bad for Junior Brother Li, because he is a ninth-rank."
