Xu Qingyang found it funny, and Zhao Fang continued: "Otherwise, how can I not beat him?"

At this time, Taoist Mingxin next to him spoke: "Do you really think Fang Hui is just a broken soul?"

Hearing what the master said, Zhao Fang and Xu Qingyang looked at Taoist Mingxin. Mingxin continued: "That's just an appearance."

"Master, I don't understand what you mean." Zhao Fang shook his head, but Mingxin did not explain anymore, but slowly sipped the tea one sip at a time.

Xu Qingyang turned his head to look at a building far away in the darkness, then asked Mingxin: "Master, why did you lock Ning Helan up there? There are monsters in there."

"Why, are you afraid that he will be eaten by monsters?" Mingxin glanced at Xu Qingyang.

Xu Qingyang shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I just thought that since they were all knocked unconscious, we could just tie them up and lock them in a confinement room, and then release them after the election of the headmaster is over."

Mingxin snorted: "Do you think Ning Helan can be locked up like that?"

Of course, it can't be locked up. Xu Qingyang knew Ning Helan's ability, but if he was thrown into the abandoned scripture building, there was said to be... Does the master want Ning Helan to die?

Thinking of this, Xu Qingyang shook his head repeatedly. It's impossible. The master is a monk, and he is kind and compassionate. Ning Helan is just here to cause trouble, and he doesn't want to kill him.

"Qingyang, did you see Ning Helan's eyes?" Mingxin suddenly asked Xu Qingyang.

Xu Qingyang hummed: "Yes."

"Did you notice anything different?"

"...different?" Xu Qingyang thought carefully, "His eyes are not bright, as if covered by a layer of gauze, hazy."

"I noticed it too, I thought he had poor eyesight, didn't I hear that he later got night blindness?" Zhao Fang said beside him.

Mingxin shook his head lightly as if he was amused by the word night blindness: "It's not night blindness, he is like this because there is a seal in his eyes."

"Seal?" Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang said in unison, "What seal?"

"The seal of his spiritual meridians." Mingxin said.

The spiritual veins in the human body are the source of spiritual power. The degree of spiritual power of each person is different. The spiritual veins coexist with the human body and complement the other meridians of the human body. Many children with obvious spiritual veins will see some strange things when they are young, such as yin-yang eyes. After the evil spirits know that you can see them, they will keep coming to you, which will greatly consume the child's life force and cause the child to have a fever or get sick.

At this time, in order to let the child thrive, the elders will try to seal the spiritual veins. One way is to apply black dog blood on the child's eyes, so that the child will never see those strange things again.

Zhao Fang thought something was wrong: "Then Ning Helan can still use spiritual power, right?"

"That's just a part of it." Mingxin put the teacup in his hand on the small table next to him.

Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang looked at each other. Even though he was so powerful, it was only a part of his spiritual power? What would it be like if he could unlock all of it?

"Ning Helan's spiritual veins are rare, and it's hard to come by in a thousand years. Why didn't Master Bourne choose him as the next leader of our sect... It's because he is so gifted." Mingxin said quietly, using the lid of the teacup to push the tea leaves aside.

"Then... who sealed his spiritual veins?" Zhao Fang asked.

Taoist Master Mingxin waved his whisk and took a step forward: "It was him himself."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang's eyes widened. In their understanding, spiritual veins are something that many people want to have but cannot have. Even if some people with predestined relationships enter the Tao, everyone's spiritual veins are different. Someone like Ning Helan, who is one in a million, actually sealed it himself.

A Taoist priest came over from the opposite side and saluted Mingxin: "Uncle Master, although your room is clean now, the broken windows and walls have just been repaired. But for your safety, you can't stay there tonight."

Mingxin nodded slightly: "I know."

He noticed the way the two disciples looked at him, so he continued: "Ning Helan has a knot in his heart that has not been untied."

Zhao Fang immediately asked: "What knot?"

Mingxin exhaled lightly, looked up at the moon, and then talked about what happened in the past.

19 years ago, he was still traveling outside. When he passed by the door of a store, he saw the TV news inside was broadcasting that Tong'an City was full of clouds and auspicious clouds, and many light spots appeared in the sky.

These light spots looked like human figures at first glance, but when he looked carefully, he couldn't see them clearly.

Although the sky in Tongan City was bright and sunny that day, the light today was brighter than before. Even the clouds in the sky seemed to be inlaid with a layer of gold. The air today was particularly clear and comfortable, and even the wind was so pleasant.

Later, Mingxin heard from the people in the Taoist temple that Ning Guohua's grandson was born, and even the founder of the Chen Xuan Sect went to see it. In the Chen Xuan Sect, the founder was a person who had ascended to heaven and became an immortal. A child was so honored that the old immortal came down to earth.

The Taoist temple was in an uproar, and everyone was discussing whether this child was the reincarnation of some immortal .

Mingxin was also very curious, so he went to see the child from a distance.

The child was very beautiful, especially his eyes, which were so big and round that they seemed to hold the entire ocean.

Mingxin used the Taoist technique of listening to the wind and watching the world, so that he could see clearly what was in front of him even from a long distance.

Unexpectedly, the child actually discovered him and turned his head to look at him curiously.

Mingxin was shocked and quickly stopped the magic. He knew why it caused such a big sensation in the sect. This child's spiritual perception was beyond ordinary people. If he was well trained, there might be no one in the current Taoist disciples who could match him.

Recalling this, Taoist Mingxin fell silent. Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang, who were listening to the story intently, asked quickly, "Master, what happened later?"

"Later..." Mingxin paused before continuing, "Later, when Ning Helan was five years old, an accident happened at home, and Ning Helan's parents died."

Hearing this, Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang showed regret and sympathy on their faces.

Xu Qingyang remembered the first time they met Ning Helan, because they bullied Tengu, he beat them up. If it weren't for Xuanyu Zhenren's action, they might have been beaten to death by the out-of-control Ning Helan.

But he remembered that Ning Helan's eyes were still normal at that time. Could it be that he sealed himself because his parents died?

"Master, do you mean that Ning Helan's parents died, so he sealed his spiritual veins?" Zhao Fang asked.

"I heard that Ning Helan ran for several days to the foot of the mountain that night, and ran to the gate of our Taoist temple in the heavy rain, just to ask Xuanyu Zhenren to save his parents..."

Taoist Mingxin did not finish the rest of the words, but Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang had already guessed what would happen later, and it was definitely not going to develop in a good direction.

Zhao Fang suddenly understood: "No wonder Ning Helan looks so bitter and resentful when he mentions our Taoist temple... So he is resentful that Zhenren did not save his parents? Tsk."

Xu Qingyang put a hand on his lips: "I don't think so. Zhenren must have his reasons for not saving them. You know, we have to call Ning Helan's grandfather Ning Guohua "Master Uncle" when we see him. If his son and daughter-in-law are in trouble, Zhenren will definitely not let it go... Unless ..."

Zhao Fang looked at Xu Qingyang innocently: "Senior brother, unless what?"

Xu Qingyang was about to speak when Mingxin beside him interrupted him: "It's very late now, you two should go back and rest."

Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang looked at each other and bowed respectfully to Taoist Mingxin: "Disciple, take your leave."

Taoist Mingxin watched the two of them slowly leave, his face flickering in the moonlight, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and strong winds blew around. A thunderbolt struck from the sky, shaking the birds in the woods to fly in a mess.

Taoist Mingxin's sight fell on the abandoned scripture building in the distance, and he squinted.

"Master!"

"Master!"

Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang ran back after hearing the thunder. Seeing Taoist Mingxin standing there and looking into the distance, they also stopped and looked over there.

Zhao Fang shouted first: "Master, it's over there at the Abandoned Sutra Building!"

"This thunder is not right..." Xu Qingyang thought for a moment, then looked up at the sky. Strangely, only the area above the Abandoned Sutra Building had thick dark clouds, and just a minute or two after they talked, another thunderbolt struck from the sky. "This is the Heavenly Thunder Attraction!"

Zhao Fang couldn't believe it: "This is the spell used by Ning Helan?! How is it possible..."

How could Ning Helan use such a high-level spell as the Heavenly Thunder Attraction? Let alone how old Ning Helan is, there are no more than ten people in the entire sect who can perform this kind of magic, and the youngest are all senior brothers in their thirties.

As the thunderbolts fell one after another, Mingxin's tense face suddenly showed a smile: "Hahaha, look, this is a natural gift. Even if I sealed my spiritual veins, even if I can only use less than half of my magic power now, I can still use this kind of advanced Taoism that makes the younger generation envious."

Mingxin was right. Xu Qingyang and Zhao Fang were indeed envious after being shocked. Not to mention that they were already the best among their peers, but they were still beaten by Ning Helan, and Ning Helan only used half of his strength.

After several consecutive thunderbolts struck, the air became quiet, and the dark clouds above the Sutra Building gradually dissipated. The cool moonlight once again fell on the earth, and the light was much brighter than before.

Zhao Fang turned to Xu Qingyang and asked quietly: "Brother, do you think Ning Helan and the others can get out of the abandoned Sutra Building?"

Xu Qingyang glanced at him: "If he destroyed the Sutra Building, he would definitely be able to get out. The door of the Sutra Building is sealed with cement, and the windows can only allow animals the size of mice to enter and exit... If he takes other routes... it should be unlikely."

"Nothing is impossible." Taoist Master Mingxin continued, "There are many secret passages in the Abandoned Sutra Building. It depends on whether Ning Helan can walk out of there safely. But by the time he comes out, the election for the leader will have ended."

Zhao Fang stepped forward tentatively and asked, "Master, you asked us to restrain Ning Helan, and now you have locked him up in the Abandoned Sutra Building. Do you just not want him to participate in the election for the leader?"

Taoist Master Mingxin's expression was meaningful. He looked at Zhao Fang and slowly asked back, "What do you think?"
