Chapter 164: Testing
All the aunts and concubines in the hall found that Su Zimu was completely different!
In the past, they actually laughed at each other in private, and they clearly had such a good natural advantage, but they were pressed by a gentle woman who was raised from a concubine to a wife!
Now it seems that the people probably don't want to pay attention to it, they think that the other party must only want to quickly test the spiritual root and go to the immortal gate, so they didn't care before.
Who knew that Wen Miao and Su Ziye were killed, and the day before the immortals were coming, they deliberately tried to give Su Zimu a family law on trumped-up charges, so that she couldn't participate in the test, wouldn't this be a hornet's nest!
They are all very happy now, except for the gentle children who always bully Su Zimu, their children have always remembered their identities and have not deliberately bullied Su Zimu, otherwise, they don't know if Su Zimu will hold a grudge.
A beautiful aunt in her twenties and thirties asked:
"Second Miss, you just said that you want other brothers and sisters to test the spiritual root, is this true?"
Su Zimu looked at the other party wearing relatively simple clothes, and recognized that it was the third aunt, who had a concubine, who was fifteen years old this year.
She nodded:
"Yes, since you asked, let the immortals test your son tomorrow. ”
The third aunt was overjoyed and nodded her head in thanks.
She really didn't expect that such a big surprise would fall on her.
In the past, she didn't fight or grab, she only thought about raising her own child well, because this year was the child's last chance, so she made up her mind to ask, but she didn't expect Su Zimu to directly say that she wanted her child to test first!
The others couldn't help but be a little annoyed at the moment, why didn't they ask.
However, when they thought that the third aunt was already in front of them, according to their seniority, it was also her children who started the test first, and they didn't say anything, they only prayed that the third aunt's children had no spiritual roots, so their children would have a chance!
……
Su Zimu returned to the courtyard where the original owner lived before according to his memory, and before he could enter, he heard a commotion from inside:
"Oh, hey, don't be foolish, give the silver!
"Think of the beauty, one more game, you must have cheated just now, hurry up, otherwise I won't give the silver!"
"Okay. You're still on the side in front of me, believe it or not, I'm going to beat you!"
"Tsk, do you dare, don't forget whose yard I am, you are just the gatekeeper of this deserted courtyard, if you beat me, Mrs. will stand up for me, do you think you can have a better time!"
"Okay, then don't come! Get out, I'll open the market in the future, don't you want to come again!"
Hearing this, Su Zimu walked to the gate of the courtyard and saw several family members crowding there to roll the dice!
And it's going to be a fight, one of the twelve or thirteen-year-old boys with a few freckles on his face is the one who guards the door in the original main courtyard, and the others should be in someone else's courtyard!
They used to gamble money in the courtyard of the original owner, relying on the original owner to not say anything.
Su Zimu snorted coldly and said:
"Heh! It's interesting, how many of you are becoming more and more masters? Gambling in Miss Ben's yard, and you dare to gamble so loudly?!"
Several family members were taken aback by Su Zimu, but they quickly came back to their senses, feeling that Su Zimu was different today, and was about to leave with the silver, but who knows, Su Zimu blocked the door and said:
"Who did you say before that you would give you a head? Are you talking about your wife? Do you want me to tell you, has your wife slandered the reputation of the eldest daughter, and has been closed to the ancestral hall by the family law?"
When these family members heard this, they all looked at Su Zimu in disbelief.
How could it be!
Mrs. was in the house before, and that status was one and the same, no one dared to offend, and even the second lady in front of her couldn't fight, but now she was locked up in the ancestral hall by the second lady?
This doesn't feel too mysterious.
However, Su Zimu said again:
"Since you are gambling in my yard, if you don't want to be sold, be honest and hand over all the money on your body!"
This sudden change in the style of painting made the family almost unable to come back to their senses.
What does Miss Second mean? Is it blatantly robbing them of their silver?
They always feel that a master will not do such a thing.
However, they found that Su Zimu's face was very serious, and there was no sign of joking at all!
As long as they endure the pain, they can escape from the few taels of silver on their bodies, and one person is about two or three taels, and four people have just made up ten taels of silver.
The freckled little family man watched those people obediently take out the money in a daze, and always felt that his master seemed to be different.
He used to feel that his master's personality was too weak, which was not good, and he was easy to be bullied, but now, he was thick-skinned and even wanted the family's silver!
For some reason, he actually felt that such a second miss made him particularly fond of it!
The freckled little family watched those people leave in disgrace, not to mention the relief in his heart, these people are older than him, and they are still working on errands outside the courtyard of Mrs. and Miss, and they are always cheating, and they can suffer now!
Before he could finish gloating, Su Zimu looked at him and said:
"Su Thirteen, yes, yes, I've been on an errand in my yard for five years, do you want Miss Ben to calculate for you, how many times have you gambled in my yard?"
Su 13 immediately collapsed his face, and hurriedly asked:
"Second Miss's forgiveness, it's really a little bit of money...... I can't even buy a spirit pill ......"
Kai Ling Pill, that is, a kind of pill that mortals have the opportunity to cultivate after eating it, if people with spiritual roots eat it, when testing the spiritual root, they can measure it more accurately, and if they accidentally have an adventure, they may be able to officially step into cultivation.
So even if it's a subordinate, it's a dream of being able to cultivate the truth. They wanted to save money, buy a spirit pill to eat first, and then spend a huge amount of money to go to the only treasure pavilion in Shangqing City to test the spirit root.
Because it takes at least 10,000 taels to test the spiritual root at a time, and Su Shiren is a money-loving person, he directly refused to let his child take the test.
Wen Miao had no choice, he had exhausted his private money over the years, and finally let several of his children secretly test it, and he couldn't say anything, because Su Shiren would definitely be very angry if he knew that Wen Miao had so much private money and wasted it.
Thinking about it like this, Su Zimu felt that the original owner's father was simply a wonder.
Because he doesn't have a spiritual root, he actually doesn't care if the people in his family go to the immortal gate, after all, he knows that he only has a hundred years to live, and even if the descendants become immortals in the future, they will have already turned into white bones, what does it matter to him!
Maybe it's because Su Shiren only thinks about himself and is too cold, so the original owner is disappointed.
Xiao Lingyun felt that such a person could actually live well, if he was too ambitious, or always fantasized about things he couldn't get, he would be very tired.
For example, Su Shiren has no spiritual root, if he drills the tip of the horns, he must cultivate the truth, he will only scatter his family wealth, and he will not get anything!
Su Zimu said to Su Thirteen:
"Forget it, forgive you this time, what about the grandmother and the cleaning maid in the courtyard?"
Su 13 said with some embarrassment:
"But, maybe somewhere else. ”
Su Zimu heard it, she just went to be lazy.
She spoke:
"Let the butler come over and ask him to reassign me a yard and a subordinate. ”
Su Shisan looked at the domineering Su Zimu, and wanted to say that the housekeeper would come over, and would his own young lady abandon him?
Su 13 was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy:
"Second Miss, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I won't gamble again in the future, don't drive me away!"
Su Zimu twitched the corner of her mouth and said:
"Go and call the butler now, and I'll keep you. ”
Before Su Zimu's words were finished, Su Shisan ran away, and the speed was faster than anyone else.
Su Zimu wanted to laugh a little, this kid is only thirteen years old, but he is quite clever, and he used to be good to the original owner, at least he won't forget who is the master like other subordinates!
She entered the room and felt her body, because she had cultivated in her previous life, so in fact, after meditating for a while, she had successfully induced qi into her body and reached the first level of qi refining!
Moreover, the spiritual root in this life was obviously much better than in the previous life, even if she didn't cultivate, she could feel the thin spiritual energy in the air being slowly absorbed.
This kind of body that can absorb aura without meditating is really a bit powerful, is it really the most powerful heavenly spirit root?
Su Zimu didn't know how long she had been meditating, and the aura had been absorbed.
Until she felt that someone was coming to the courtyard, Su Zimu unexpectedly found that at her speed, she would be able to reach the second layer of qi refining in a day or two at most!
Moreover, Su Zimu's face suddenly changed slightly, and she vaguely felt the space looming in the sea of consciousness......
But now there were only some sensations, as if something was holding her back from opening.
Su Zimu's face became a little strange.
This space, she can recognize, is clearly the space of the previous life.
There are still her and Bo Zhixing from the previous life......
"Second Miss, the housekeeper is here!"
Su Shisan's voice outside interrupted Su Zimu's thoughts, and as soon as Su Zimu opened the door and went out, he saw Su Shisan's probe brain, and the housekeeper beside him was a little impatient.
When the housekeeper saw Su Zimu, he glared at Su Shisan with dissatisfaction:
"Okay, you dare to lie to me, didn't you say that the second lady was seriously ill?"
Su Zimu's head was full of black lines, this little thing actually cursed him.
Su Shisan shrunk his neck, thinking that if he didn't say this, the housekeeper wouldn't come.
Su Zimu also understood that the previous owner really had no status in the mansion, and she said:
"Butler, is it possible that Miss Cost is not seriously ill, so she can't call you if there is something?"
As soon as Su Zimu opened her mouth lightly, the housekeeper found out, and sure enough, this second lady was different.
He heard about Wen Miao and Su Ziye being imprisoned in the ancestral hall by the family law before, but he only felt that it was too exaggerated at the time, didn't he know what the second lady was?
Who knew that when he saw Su Zimu at this time, he felt as if he had a time to look away.
The housekeeper can stay by the side of Su Shiren, who is like an iron rooster for so long, naturally he has some ability, and he immediately said respectfully:
"Second Miss, what you said is really tormenting the old slave, the old slave just thinks that thirteen is neither big nor small, and he can't see the second miss well! ”
The housekeeper really has two brushes, and these words first made Su Shisan bear the charge of cursing the master, and it can also show the housekeeper's concern for Su Zimu.
If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely have a bad impression of Su 13 at this time, and he would even be sent away in the end.
Su Zimu didn't really think that Su Shisan really wanted to curse her, she glanced at Su Shisan's pale face, and said with a smile:
"Okay, housekeeper, you don't have to be like this in front of me, which is right and wrong, Miss Ben has her own judgment in her heart, let you come this time, I just want to ask, as the eldest daughter in the house, why do I live in a more remote place than those concubines. ”
The housekeeper said very calmly:
"Isn't this courtyard very good? it is quiet and will not be disturbed at will! It is exactly what you asked for at the beginning, Miss!"
This housekeeper, the ability to open her eyes and tell nonsense is really good, she is not annoyed, but said:
"If the housekeeper thinks this yard is very good, why don't you live in the future?!"
The housekeeper's face changed at this moment, and he hurriedly said:
"Ask the second lady not to torture the old slave. "A man who lives in the backyard must not be kicked out! Even these little men who guard the courtyard gate are relatively small, and they can only go back to the front yard at night, and once they have passed the age of sixteen, they will be transferred to the front yard.
Seeing that he finally knew that he was afraid, Su Zimu said:
"In that case, a courtyard has been arranged for me, and I will stay here for a short time, just be quiet!"
The housekeeper thought that Su Zimu meant that she would be chosen by the immortals in a few days, and he thought to himself that this second young lady was hidden and had already tested her spiritual root?
The housekeeper felt that his idea must be right, thinking that soon the second lady would go to the Xianmen to be an immortal, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly said:
"Please wait a minute, the old slave will be arranged within an hour!"
Su Zimu was very satisfied.
An hour later, looking at the quiet new courtyard, the small hall and room with no furnishings, some wanted to laugh, Su Shiren was really good enough, she knew that the courtyard where the other brothers and sisters lived was not better than here, it was all because of the financial power in this backyard, Su Shiren also held on tightly, even if he was gentle, he couldn't touch the things in the warehouse at will, and he had to ask Su Shiren.
So this furnishing, which looks a little too simple, is already the best that the housekeeper can handle.
Su Zimu thought that she didn't have any moon silver at all, and when the time came, she would have to be stretched thin at any time, so she still had to make some money before severing her relationship with the Su family.
That's right, Su Zimu has already decided that he will not go to Shangqingmen, and he will not participate in tomorrow's spiritual root test.
In the original owner's last wish, he hoped that her master's sect could be carried forward and become the first major sect. Although this wish sounds really difficult, as long as she succeeds in ascending, it is actually logical to become the number one sect!
Therefore, Su Zimu has already planned that when the time comes, he will leave the Su family and go directly to the sect where the original master is staying!
The next day.
Early in the morning, when Su Zimu was still asleep, she heard a noise outside:
"Su Zimu, get out of here, why did you lock your mother and sister in the ancestral hall, aren't you afraid of being expelled from the house by your father!"
"Get out of the way, dog minion, even dare to stop us!"
As soon as Su Zimu heard this voice, Su Zi guessed that it was Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan, two brothers.
Su Zimu walked out, and sure enough, Su Shisan was struggling to block the door and prevent them from coming in.
She wondered why the two brothers had only shown up today.
But it doesn't matter, they know their purpose anyway.
Su Zimu sneered:
"Why, your upbringing has been read into the belly of a dog? Facing your sister, just call her name, make people dream early in the morning, and say that Wen Miao is well-educated, and that's how she taught you?"
Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan didn't think about it, they hadn't seen each other for a few days, how could Su Zimu become so sharp and sharp, and dare to insult his mother, he immediately turned red with anger, and said angrily:
"Don't be forceful, what do you call your mother!
When Su Zimu heard this, she didn't feel weak at all, and said directly:
"Are you blind? I don't have a mother to teach, but you, with my mother's teaching, are still like this! Moreover, you must remember clearly, as long as I am the eldest daughter of the Su Mansion one day, you will call me sister when you see me! And I don't need to call a concubine a mother!"
Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan were almost crazy, but they couldn't refute this at all.
But at this time, their own future is at stake, and they can only forcibly say:
"Even so, why do you have the right not to let us test the spiritual root, the entire Shangqing City is tested by the sons and daughters first, and after you finish the test, we have the right to test!"
Su Zimu sneered in her heart, and sure enough, she finally said her purpose, Su Zimu suddenly smiled and said:
"Now I have to ask your mother, why did your mother buy a subordinate to slander my reputation at will, so that she could serve my family, and also lock me up in the ancestral hall, so that I would miss the test, when she could give you a satisfactory answer, when would I let you test, of course, if you missed it, then you can only blame your mother! This family, it is not her turn to call the shots now!"
Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan were helpless at all, they had wantonly bullied and ridiculed Su Zimu before, and they both had their mother's support, but now, their mother has been locked up, and the old people who guard the ancestral hall will not let people out casually, they will only listen to their father's words!
So I had to wait for a month! At that time, the daylily was not cold, but moldy!
But now they have no choice but to say hatefully:
"I don't care, you can test it anyway, we have to test it too!"
As they spoke, they turned and left, presumably going to the hall to wait.
Su Zimu didn't care, and it wasn't until the housekeeper said that the immortals were coming that she walked out.
After arriving in the front hall, everyone had already arrived, and those aunts had dressed up their children very well, but the clothes were still half-new, after all, Su Shiren was really like an iron rooster, and there were few new clothes all year round!
And at this moment, sitting in the first place, being treated respectfully, are two young people in their twenties wearing white sect uniforms, with a breezy temperament, and they are embroidered with a water pattern logo on their chests, representing the logo of Shangqing Gate.
After Su Zimu came in, the housekeeper hurriedly introduced and said that Su Zimu was in charge of the family at this time.
The two young men saw that each other was dressed plainly, only about thirteen years old, and they should have shown disdain, but they seemed to see something, and suddenly said "Huh":
"This young lady, you have already stepped into the path of cultivating immortals, and you even have the cultivation of the second layer of qi refining!"
Generally, people in this mortal world, whether the spiritual root has to spend a lot of money to test, not to mention that it takes a year and a half to introduce qi into the body later, this is still in the place where the spiritual energy of the Xianmen is more abundant, but they actually saw a thirteen-year-old little girl, who has already refined the second layer of qi!
You must know that they are all forty or fifty years old, and they can reach the foundation building, but they are already the core disciples of the Shangqing Sect!
Su Zimu hadn't been cultivating for long last night, and when he saw that he had reached the second layer of qi refining, he simply went to sleep, after all, he was still growing his body and was prone to sleepiness.
When the aunt and the housekeeper heard this, they were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of the frame.
has already stepped into the path of cultivating immortals, and also, it is still the second-level cultivation of qi refining!
There are only many of them who can reach the second layer of qi refining at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and they are all very powerful.
They couldn't believe it, Su Zimu hadn't done anything, how could she cultivate immortals!
When Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan heard this, their eyes widened, and they didn't dare to quarrel if they wanted to, after all, Su Zimu was already at the second level of Qi refining, but they didn't even touch the threshold of cultivating immortals!
Su Zimu nodded slightly and replied politely:
"The two immortal masters are polite, it's just a fluke, not enough to worry about. ”
This feeling of being an old man made it impossible for the two monks to treat her like a child, so they said:
"That's the second miss, do you want to test it first?"
The housekeeper and others are also looking forward to it, I don't know what the talent of the second lady is, after all, it is the existence of a vision that fell from heaven when she was born, and it should be a better talent than the eldest young master!
The next moment, when they heard Su Zimu's words, they almost couldn't believe their ears.
Su Zimu said leisurely:
"Our Su family, what happened in the past two days makes me feel cold, as a descendant, calculating and calculating, plainly making people see a joke, I am going to punish myself and my descendants today, this test, the descendants can not participate! ”
When Su Wenyi learned that he could take the test yesterday, he didn't sleep all night.
He always felt that this was too unreal, but now, when Su Zimu called him, he was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward.
Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan yelled angrily:
"Wait, Su Zimu, why do you say what you say, we are descendants, why can't we test, we are descendants, we should be tested first!"
However, Su Zimu motioned to the housekeeper:
"Butler, take them down, don't lose the face of our Su family!"
The two immortal masters didn't know what to do in their hearts, on the one hand, they felt that Su Zimu was really courageous, and she actually missed the opportunity to go to Immortal Mountain in vain, with her current cultivation, they all knew that if she went to her own sect, she would definitely be highly valued!
But in order to suppress other descendants, the other party was even willing to let go of this opportunity and leave it to the concubines and daughters in the family.
As soon as the housekeeper thought that Su Zimu probably didn't plan to leave the Su family for the time being, he hurriedly ordered someone to drag Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan, who were shouting, to leave.
Su Wenyi also started the test smoothly.
The two monks took out a palm-sized disc with a lot of talismans engraved on it, Su Zimu took a look, is this the test disc used to test the spiritual root?
She felt that the lines on it seemed to be very easy to understand, so she took the opportunity to step forward and look carefully, she looked at it several times, and then she felt that she had the memory of the lines in her head, and knew that these lines were a kind of runes, and knew how to draw them.
