Title: "The Mysterious Record of Grudges" - "I Shocked Everyone in La La Land with the Gramophone" is now online!

Main building: As the title says.

1L: I clicked in immediately after seeing the title.

4L: Isn’t “Piao Miao” a series about cultivation? How come “La La Land” is also in it? What on earth do you Pujiang viewers watch every day? ?

8L: With such a good naming skill, Shanfeng Yidaozhan would surely be ranked high on the list of early literature, right

33L: Oh my god, I am a pure drama fan who has not been following the live broadcast. When I saw this title, I was calm and confidently guessed that the host must be playing songs on a phonograph. I didn't expect that I still underestimated the host, who even solved the case... I have to say that the coquettishness is reasonable with Zhu Changyang's characteristics.

44L: SOS! I was enjoying watching the drama when I heard the famous children's song unexpectedly!

65L: I have collected all the products in this series, and I eat them with my meals every day.

.

Zhu Changyang entered the workshop and called up the live broadcast background. From Gupeng Secret Realm to Gongyu City, the ratings of both segments were very good, accumulating a large amount of popularity points and nutrient solution.

Zhu Changyang kept some nutrient solution for emergency use and exchanged the rest.

As usual, his body gradually became lighter, his mind became clearer, and he felt stronger... Although he had not put it into practice yet, Zhu Changyang felt that it should not be a problem for him to ride a bicycle with ten Jun Shus on board to cross Fuli Mountain.

Following the formula, he smoothed out the abundant breath one by one and returned it to his spiritual platform. After a while, he felt a burning sensation in his abdomen, a feeling he had never experienced before.

Zhu Changyang was slightly stunned, and quickly concentrated his mind to investigate. His consciousness followed the meridians and came to the dantian, and then he was surprised.

This was not the first time he used his spiritual sense to observe himself. Whenever he passed through this place in the past, his dantian was all white and chaotic, and he could not see anything.

Now, the fog has dissipated, and the Dantian is like the universe split by Pangu, with vast expanses of space and no boundaries.

Fine "golden sand" floated in the void. Guided by an unknown force, the golden sands slowly gathered in the same direction, forming a fist-sized golden spherical object in the middle of the universe.

The heat came from this golden sphere.

Zhu Changyang understood instantly that this should be the "golden elixir" often mentioned in the world of cultivation, which means that he has finally broken through the peak of the foundation-building stage and officially entered the elixir-forming stage.

However, the golden elixir in front of him was very loose. He tried to "touch" the golden elixir with his spiritual consciousness, and the fine sand that condensed into the golden elixir instantly dispersed and gathered again.

This was the first time Zhu Changyang "saw" the golden elixir. To be honest, it was not what he imagined. He thought the golden elixir would be a hard, round bead, like what he had seen in TV dramas before, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

It is said that the Jindan stage and the foundation-building stage are two completely different stages, and both are incomparable in terms of physical cultivation.

After opening his eyes, Zhu Changyang let out a long breath, then turned his palms upward and ignited the spiritual fire. As expected, he could feel a steady stream of cultivation power surging out.

Now, he should be able to complete the order for the spiritual power rice cooker that he had previously accepted for the Qingshu Sect.

The spiritual power rice cooker requires a large amount of medium and low-grade spiritual stones. Zhu Changyang's previous storage had been used up by Jun Shu's treatment, but he had earned a lot recently.

After the Lotte Tour ended, he sent the news that Jiang Hui's original soundtrack would be released soon to all customers who had inquired about the phonograph, and as expected, there were many responses.

Even some people who originally thought that the phonograph had limited uses and was not worth the high price were attracted to it.

Unfortunately, Zhu Changyang is no longer accepting formal orders and only reservations are allowed, which is a pity.

In addition, other music producers contacted Zhu Changyang and expressed their desire to record albums like Jiang Hui.

Unfortunately, Zhu Changyang doesn’t have that much time at the moment, so he can only write it down for now and make plans when the recording conditions are more mature in the future.

In any case, I finally gathered a batch of usable spirit stones.

Zhu Changyang checked the inventory, prepared all the materials, and then concentrated on refining.

There are ready-made rice cooker molds in the workshop. What he needs to do is to use spiritual fire to refine the spiritual stones, and make the different materials connect smoothly to open up the channel for the transmission of spiritual power.

The next morning, Zhu Changyang sent a message to Hua Guangbai, asking him to convey it to Qingshumen, and he would be able to receive the spiritual power rice cooker soon.

Because Zhu Changyang had never met the people from Qingshumen before, and various events in the past proved that the world of cultivation was not a good place, to be on the safe side, he hoped to let Changchunlou act as a middleman to convey the message.

Hua Guangbai naturally agreed, and Qing Shumen also expressed his understanding and tried his best to cooperate.

After sending the message, Zhu Changyang was about to go out. At this moment, the jade tablet flashed, and it turned out to be a message from Shen Zha.

Shen Zha: [Brothers, Master told me what you want to talk to me about]

Zhu Changyang: [It's alright.]

Shen Zha: [I have something to do. As soon as I get out of the quarantine, I will read all the daily news that I missed these days. What is that phonograph of yours? I want one too. Just tell me how much it costs.]

People in the world of cultivation, like the ancients, have no punctuation marks. They only use a circle to represent sentences, and not every sentence break is marked. For example, people of Master Shen Zha's generation didn't even use circles, so long sentences looked very cumbersome.

Zhu Changyang's eyes hurt from reading this, but his reply was still full of warmth towards Party A.

Zhu Changyang: [Our friendship does not require money. I have reserved one for you at 20% off the market price. If you want to add gemstones or gold plating, the price will be calculated separately.]

Shen Zha: [The gemstones must be gold-plated. Forget it. I don’t like gold plating.]

Zhu Changyang was surprised that Shen Zha didn't want gilding. This was not in line with his aesthetic taste. Before he could finish expressing his admiration, another message came from the other party.

Shen Zha: [Just make it out of gold. We can afford it.]

Zhu Changyang: “…”

After all, he still doesn't know enough about the real rich second generation.

So sour and envious.

Zhu Changyang: [Got it, my good friend^—^]

After finally confirming the requirements with the client, Zhu Changyang felt that his industrial aesthetic had been severely damaged again. He was feeling exhausted when the waiter came and knocked on the door, saying that someone was looking for him outside.

Zhu Changyang went to the lobby and saw that it was Nan Rongbo.

"Hey, Brother Nan Rong hasn't gone back yet?" Zhu Changyang asked in confusion. The Le Tian Tour had ended for several days and the guests from various sects had left one after another. He stayed until now because of the Jie Li family's affairs.

"Don't mention it." Nan Rongbo gently waved his folding fan, looking exhausted, "I asked my junior sister to go back and report first. I dare not go back in the near future."

Zhu Changyang was even more puzzled: "Why?"

If he remembered correctly, Nan Rongbo was the only son of the master of Hehuan Palace, and he had an extraordinary status. How could he not dare to go back to Hehuan Palace? Could it be that something terrible had happened

"My mother's lovers are fighting again." Nan Rongbo rubbed his temple. "As soon as I go back, they will definitely ask me to judge the matter. How can I judge their case?"

Zhu Changyang: “…”

It’s really amazing.

It is rumored that the master of Hehuan Palace, Nanrong Yanbo, is beautiful and passionate. She has several lovers who practice dual cultivation with her. Moreover, those lovers are completely devoted to her and are willing to do this. They have lived together in Hehuan Palace for many years with basically no conflicts and are regarded as a model of Hehuan Dao.

Now from what Nan Rongbo said, it seems that those lovers are not as peaceful as rumored.

Rumors are indeed not credible.

Zhu Changyang was silent for a while before he smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to have such troubles."

"It was fine before. My mother managed my uncles in an orderly manner." Nan Rongbo sighed, "It was just that recently, the son of the Lord of Yanyu City came to the Hehuan Palace to present gifts. He fell in love with my mother at first sight and insisted on living in the palace. So he stayed and appeared in front of my mother every day..."

"The son of the Lord of Yanyu City is only in his early twenties this year, handsome and strong, so the uncles inevitably felt a sense of crisis, and they started arguing."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

As expected of Hehuan Palace, it is indeed unrestrained. "Wouldn't it be better to send the person away?"

"How cruel." Nan Rongbo said, "Didn't you hear the point? The city lord's son is very handsome and very infatuated with my mother. My mother couldn't bear to see him sad. Alas, my mother did not handle this matter very well, but it is understandable."

Zhu Changyang wiped his face and said, "You're right. It's really embarrassing."

This topic really couldn't be continued. If I continued to talk for a few more words, the live broadcast room might be closed, so I changed the subject, "Then why did you come to see me?"

Nan Rongbo said "Oh" and smiled, "Since I'm not going back to Hehuan Palace, I might as well go to Jijin Sect. Brothers, are you all weapon refiners? Are you interested in going with me? It just so happens that many people in Jijin Sect want to make friends with you. Their first disciple Qi Tongchen even asked me about you before."

“Ji Jin Sect?” Zhu Changyang was slightly stunned. If it was any other sect, he would have probably declined politely, but Ji Jin Sect happened to be the sect that he was most interested in at the moment.

He has already formed a golden elixir and entered the early stage of the golden elixir stage. In the world of cultivation, this can barely be considered as stepping into the ranks of a junior high school student. The elementary school textbooks he bought at a street stall are obviously no longer applicable.

However, the more advanced methods were all unique teaching materials of each sect, and they were hard to buy on the market. So if Zhu Changyang wanted to continue learning, he could only communicate with the various sects.

He originally wanted to go back to Buchendi to see if Chang Chunwu could sell him one or two of the secret manuals of the Hundred Craftsmen, and to take a look at the progress of the flashlight workshop. It just so happened that he had just accepted Li Li as his apprentice, so he could let him learn from the workshop craftsmen first.

But if you can go to Jijinzong, it will undoubtedly be a better choice.

As one of the most powerful weapon refining sects in Piaomiao Continent, the Jijin Sect is far superior to other small sects in terms of skills and techniques. Even if you can't buy their teaching materials, it would be nice to visit them.

The leader of the cultivation world, Jobs, is also very curious.

Zhu Changyang made a quick decision and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble Brother Nanrong to help introduce him."

"No, no." Nan Rongbo smiled slightly, "I should ask you brothers to help me mediate."

Zhu Changyang had a bad feeling when he heard this: "What do you mean?"

Nan Rongbo was a little shy for once: "Don't panic, brothers. These are just some old stories. It's nothing serious."

Zhu Changyang said solemnly: "Brother Nanrong, please tell me the truth."

Nan Rongbo couldn't avoid it, so he said awkwardly: "It's nothing. It was just a few years ago when the Sikou Sect Master celebrated his birthday. I went to the Jijin Sect with my mother to congratulate him. I drank too much during the banquet and my mind was a little confused. When I went out, I saw a handsome man. I couldn't help but ask him if he wanted to practice dual cultivation with me..."

Zhu Changyang's mouth twitched slightly: "Brother Nanrong, this is not right. You can't talk nonsense to their disciples even if you are drunk."

"It would be great if they were his disciples." Nan Rongbo coughed twice, "The one I'm asking about is Sect Master Sikou himself."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

Zhu Changyang sighed: "Then you really can't blame them for being angry with you."

No sect would let it go if the leader of a sect was teased.

"Well, actually, Sect Master Sikou has a pretty good temper, and he wasn't really mad at me at the time. He even came to congratulate me personally on my birthday two years ago." Nan Rongbo spread out his folding fan to cover half of his face, and then continued, "It was just that I was drunk again, and my eyes were blurry. I mistakenly thought he was a disciple sent by some sect, and asked him if he wanted to practice dual cultivation with me."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

Zhu Changyang sighed again: "It can be seen that Sect Master Sikou has a good temper. You still have all your limbs intact."

It can be seen that Si Kou Luo did not use harsh measures against him at that time.

"So I have been wanting to mend my relationship with Sect Master Sikou for the past few years." Nan Rongbo said innocently, "To be honest, this can't be entirely blamed on me. I didn't expect that Sect Master Sikou, who is such a busy man, would make a special trip to attend my birthday."

Nan Rongbo: “…”

What a familiar sentence. Didn’t he just say that

Studio:

[? ? ? ? What kind of life is this Hehuan Palace leading? It's too outrageous! Where is the morality? Where is the bottom line? Where is the registration link? ]

[It is reasonable to suspect that the floor of Hehuan Palace is full of underpants! ]

[It's so funny, that Sikou clan leader sounds like a big bastard. Changyang, please go, I want to see it! ]

.

Two days later, Zhu Changyang, along with Jun Shu, Kaifa and his new apprentice, boarded Nan Rongbo's fairy crane chariot and headed for Jijin Sect together.

This was Zhu Changyang's first time riding a flying car, which was roughly equivalent to an upgrade from economy class to first class.

It must be said that this first-class cabin is much more comfortable, with soft couches and sweet nectar fruits. The only thing missing is a few flight attendants to serve.

The most peculiar thing is that this precious chariot does not look very big from the outside, and is similar to an ordinary chariot, but the space inside is very spacious, almost as big as a small room.

Zhu Changyang looked around curiously and even stuck his head out of the window to look around.

Nan Rongbo took the initiative to explain when he saw this: "This precious chariot was made by the Jijin Sect. The wood used is a rare spiritual wood that has grown the Divine Sand and Flying Snow. It seems that the mustard seed spell was used in the chariot."

Zhu Changyang suddenly realized that Shensha Feixue was a very rare herb. It was said that taking it could allow one to fly. It usually grew on sacred trees with abundant spiritual energy. After being refined, the trees that had grown Shensha Feixue would also have the ability to fly.

As for the mustard seed spell, it is actually the same as the mustard seed bag, using the Sumeru mustard seed-like space magic.

Zhu Changyang gave a thumbs up: "Jijin Sect is indeed powerful."

Being able to combine flying technology and space magic to create such a first-class cabin in the sky is, in terms of skill alone, even better than modern aircraft.

Jun Shu was lying lazily, and seeing Zhu Changyang's envious look, he suddenly said: "I think it's okay, it's more convenient to use a sword."

Brother Ci's competitive spirit is unparalleled. Zhu Changyang looked at him deeply and said, "But you can sit on this one."

Jun Shu pondered for a moment, then suddenly had an idea: "Make two stools and attach them to my sword, so we can fly on them in the future."

Zhu Changyang:

Nan Rongbo, Jie Li and the developer couldn't help but look over, with a look of shock in their eyes that seemed to stop them from speaking.

Jun Shu even had another invention. He clapped his hands and said, "Add an umbrella, and it will have a seat and a canopy, which is almost the same as this car."

Zhu Changyang:

What’s the difference between that and the motorcycle taxi guys at the subway entrance

Brother, when you compare yourself to others, can you have even a little respect for your sword

.

After three days, the group finally arrived at Shili Mountain where the Jijin Sect was located.

Shili Mountain is named after the founder of the Jijin Sect, Shili Laozu, so the area is naturally much more than ten miles. Looking down from the air, you can see the green mountains rolling up and down like green waves, spreading out layer by layer. Above the waves, white clouds are floating. Through the layers of mist, you can vaguely see the huge buildings.

The buildings of Ji Jin Sect were somewhat different from the sects Zhu Changyang had seen before. Looking down from above, they looked like neatly arranged boxes, displaying the unique artisan aesthetic of this weapon-refining sect.

The fairy crane led the precious chariot and landed in an open space outside the gate of Jijin Sect, and Nan Rongbo submitted a visiting card.

Not long after, a young man in short brown clothes came out to greet them with several other young people dressed in the same way.

"Tongchen, long time no see." Nan Rongbo walked forward and patted the man's shoulder in a familiar manner, "It seems you have grown taller again."

The man in the lead was none other than Qi Tongchen, the first disciple of the sect leader Si Kou Luo.

Qi Tongchen brushed Nan Rongbo's hand away expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "Brother Nan Rong, there is no need to make small talk. I am already thirty years old and I will not grow taller any more."

Zhu Changyang on the side: "..."

It seems that Nan Rongbo's previous description still retained some of its contents. His relationship with Jijin Sect is even worse than expected.

Nan Rongbo hit a snag as soon as they met, but he didn't get angry, and tried to save face very smoothly: "Ah, that's because I was dazzled. Look carefully, it's indeed about the same height as last year."

Qi Tongchen: "You say that every time."

Nan Rongbo pretended not to hear and changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "Don't talk about those irrelevant things. Come and meet some of my friends. Haven't you always wanted to meet the brothers..."

When Zhu Changyang was mentioned, Qi Tongchen's expression immediately softened, and his voice became a little warmer: "Master Zhu, I have long heard of your great name. I apologize for not coming to meet you in person."

"No, no, you're welcome." Zhu Changyang shook hands with him politely, "I came here uninvited, please don't be offended."

"Master Zhu, how can you come uninvited?" Qi Tongchen said, "Brother Nanrong told me a few days ago that he would invite you to come, otherwise this period of time is a busy time for our sect, and we don't have time to entertain Brother Nanrong."

"?" Zhu Changyang slowly turned his head and looked at Nan Rongbo in confusion.

After all this time, it turned out that they were not able to visit Jijin Sect because of Nan Rongbo's hitchhiking, but that Nan Rongbo was not rejected by Jijin Sect because of his face!

Nan Rongbo also worked very hard to repair his relationship with the Jijin Sect.

Nan Rongbo remained calm and lied with his eyes open: "There is no need to explain the friendship between me and my brothers. Everyone understands it."

After greeting Zhu Changyang, Qi Tongchen looked at Jun Shu again, with a look of amazement in his eyes: "Who is..."

When Zhu Changyang saw his expression, his scalp went numb and he quickly said, "This is my good friend Jun Shu. He is a solitary cultivator and has nothing to do with Zi Jiuwen!"

"Ah? I just wanted to ask what this person's name is." Qi Tongchen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "So this is the handsome male cultivator..."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

You didn't mean that, why are your eyes so bright? And there's no need to reread "that person", we all know what you're talking about!

Beside him, Jun Shu slashed at him again with murderous eyes: "Humph!"

Zhu Changyang didn't dare to look at his face at all, and quickly took out a household rice cooker from his pocket and handed it to Qi Tongchen: "I came here on short notice and didn't prepare any gifts. Please accept this rice cooker."

Qi Tongchen was shocked: "Rice cooker!"

"It's not a spiritual power rice cooker." Zhu Changyang explained, "This is used to cook rice."

A row of question marks appeared on Qi Tongchen's head.

How can a rice cooker that is so famous and even regarded as a game-changer in Danzong be used to cook rice? Wait...

rice cooker!!!

Qi Tongchen suddenly realized the true meaning of this name: his pupils trembled!

Although it is not a spiritual version of the rice cooker, the craftsmanship itself is definitely a generous gift.

Qi Tongchen carefully put away the gift, and then led the group into the gate of Ji Jin Sect.

Nan Rongbo looked around and asked, "Where is Sect Leader Sikou? Why is there no sign of him?"

"What do you want to see my master for?" Qi Tongchen glanced at him unhappily, but did not answer. He turned to explain to Zhu Changyang, "Please don't be offended, my sect has been busy with some things recently, and my master has no time to see guests. I have no intention of neglecting you."

"No." Zhu Changyang waved his hand, "I just came at an unlucky time."

“But my master has instructed me to entertain these distinguished guests well.” While leading the way, Qi Tongchen introduced the history of Ji Jin Sect to them, including some of the more famous buildings in the sect.

Zhu Changyang suddenly felt like he was visiting a factory.

“There are more than a thousand people in our sect now. Apart from a group of chores and low-level disciples who have not yet established their foundation, there are more than four hundred formal weapon refiners. The swords, knives, spears, bows and crossbows refined in the sect are sold far and wide to the nine regions and eighteen continents. They are among the best in terms of quality and magic power. In addition, we also refine some practical tools for the people of Shili City, such as water wheels, plows, food boxes that can keep warm, etc., which are widely praised in the city... As for the jade spy that my master refined in the past, I guess I don’t need to introduce it.” Qi Tongchen smiled proudly.

Zhu Changyang said solemnly: "Of course, Sect Master Sikou has changed the communication method of the entire cultivation world with his own efforts. He is really an extraordinary person."

Qi Tongchen respected his master the most. Hearing Zhu Changyang praising Si Kou Luo so much, he felt honored and his attitude became even more enthusiastic.

As they were talking, they arrived at the most magnificent main hall of Ji Jin Sect. Qi Tongchen did not give any further introduction, but only led them to the side of the main hall.

Zhu Changyang was a little confused when suddenly his eyes lit up. He saw a golden tree growing on the open space beside the hall.

The trunk is made of bronze, simple and solemn, about as thick as a person can hug, and as high as a two-story building, with winding branches extending outward from the trunk.

The branches are covered with palm-sized leaves, which are golden pieces that reflect dazzling light under the sunlight.

"This is the sect's treasure, the Bronze Bone and Golden Leaf Tree." Qi Tongchen introduced.

It turns out that in the past, there was a trend of pursuing the art of turning gold into gold in the world of cultivation. At that time, many cultivators believed that gold was the perfect form of metal, just like the immortality of mortals. Therefore, all the alchemists tried to make gold from ordinary copper, iron, and even stone.

A close friend of Shili Laozu, the founder of the Jijin Sect, was obsessed with this art and spent his entire life studying the art of alchemy. However, he achieved nothing until his death and died with hatred in his heart.

At that time, the Ten-Li Patriarch was already famous in Piaomiao Continent, and had reached the Mahayana stage, so he did not need to pursue the alchemy technique. However, in order to fulfill his old friend's last wish, he resolutely devoted himself to the study of alchemy.

Finally, after decades of hard training, the Shili Patriarch used the skills left by his old friend, combined with the techniques of a weapon refiner, and used bronze as the skeleton to refine a strange tree, which he then planted in the Feng Shui confluence place of Shili Mountain.

When other sects heard about this, they all secretly laughed at it. They all thought that Patriarch Shili must be getting old and confused. Bronze is bronze, how can copper be made into gold

In fact, the gold-turning craze that had lasted for a hundred years had faded by then. Gold-turning was too difficult, and most monks eventually gave up on it and returned to their normal practice.

The bronze tree of Shili Patriarch was undoubtedly seen as another failed attempt.

It was not until a year later that thunderclouds suddenly rose over the Ten-Li Mountain. Amidst the lightning in the sky, a golden leaf suddenly grew on the branch of the bronze tree.

A leaf grew on a tree in the mountains. Even if it was a golden leaf, it would still be difficult to be noticed at first. But as soon as the bronze tree grew leaves, everyone looked at it sideways.

At that time, people within a radius of hundreds of miles witnessed with their own eyes a golden human-faced roc descending from the sky and landing in the Ten-Li Mountain.

The human-faced bird is a top-level divine bird. Legend has it that it is a descendant of Ju Mang and only lives on the golden tree.

The arrival of the human-faced bird means that what grows on the bronze tree is indeed gold.

At the same time, Patriarch Shili encountered a thunder tribulation that caused him to ascend to heaven, and thus attained enlightenment.

"After the ancestor ascended to heaven, his disciples, that is, the other ancestors of my sect, founded a mountain and established a sect next to the copper bone and golden leaf tree, and have been based here ever since. After that, every time my sect refines a divine weapon, a golden leaf grows on the copper bone tree. So far, there are ninety-eight leaves on the tree..." Qi Tongchen paused slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, "This ninety-eighth leaf is exactly what my master grew when he refined the Jade Letter of Communication."

"It's amazing, it's really amazing." Zhu Changyang was fascinated and sighed repeatedly.

Producing gold from copper is something that neither nuclear fission nor nuclear fusion can do.

No wonder Patriarch Shili was able to ascend to heaven. He even broke the law of conservation of elements.

Zhu Changyang thought for a moment and said to Jie Li, "Just listen to this kind of story, don't take it to heart, otherwise it will affect your study of the periodic table."

Cleavage: “… ?”

The author has something to say:

Sect Leader Sikou: Don’t come over here!
