Wu Zhong looked at the senior brother in front of him, he really didn't expect that he would talk so much to himself on the first day of meeting. If it were him, I really couldn't imagine that I could do these things as a non-sociable person.

Hearing Gong Yan ask, his heart trembled. More than half a year ago, I was just a college student who had just graduated, and I thought that I had only read one or two of these things in other people's novels, and the characters recorded in them were all fluttering like fairies. Even if he can barely be counted into the ranks of these people now, he still doesn't regard them as mortals in his heart, let alone think that he will be an ordinary person like the people under the mountain.

Gong Yan looked at him, smiled and continued: "Throughout the ages, the seven emotions and six desires seem to be the labels of mortals, and once they step into the ranks of cultivation, they will cut off the relationship with all of them. But is this really the case? The words 'immortal', 'saint' and the word 'human' end with the word 'human', not to mention that we are just ordinary cultivators?"

"Today, the huge gap in your heart is because you have broken away from the word 'human', to put it bluntly, you don't think of yourself as a mortal at all. But in reality, everyone is mortal, without exception.

"Since we are mortals, we have seven emotions and six desires, since we are mortals, we have our own way of life, and since we are mortals, why should we be obsessed with this?" Gong Yan looked at Wu Zhong and said with a smile.

Wu Zhong listened to his words, and his heart was mixed. What Gong Yan said today was something he had never thought of. What he thinks is just the means of the immortal family, but he has never thought that the immortal family is also a human being.

"Thank you, brother. Wu Zhong expressed his heartfelt thanks to Gong Yan. If it weren't for today's words, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get over this hurdle for a long time.

Gong Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't be like this, there's nothing to thank or not thank." It's just that I came here first, and your mood is the same as mine, so it's useful. If it were anything else, I wouldn't be able to do anything. Hahaha. ”

Wu Zhong listened, smiled and did not speak.

"Okay, although you already know this hurdle in your heart, it will take a while to really pass. It's not too short for us to be out, it's time to go back. After saying that, Miyahiko prepared to get up.

Wu Zhong suddenly said at this time: "Senior brother, I still have something I want to ask you. ”

"You say. Gong Yan said with a smile.

"Why didn't anyone choose me in the process of choosing an apprentice?" Wu Zhong was puzzled.

Gao Fei cleaned the courtyard alone, and was about to clean up the others, when he saw Gong Yan and the others walking back.

"Welcome back. Goofy said with a smile.

Wu Zhong replied with a smile: "Welcome back." ”

After eating lunch, I didn't see the master come out, Gong Yan was used to this, and he didn't let Wu Zhong and Gao Fei go to disturb him. At this time, Yu Hui is either sleeping or playing games, he has recently become obsessed with a mobile game called Glory of Kings, and he is bored every day playing the role called the old master.

The three of them packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and Wu Zhong and the others came to Xiao's library under the guidance of Gong Yan.

As soon as I walked in, I felt a powerful aura rushing to my face: "Who is coming?"

Gong Yan said respectfully: "Disciple Gong Yan, bring two junior disciples to practice. ”

That powerful aura disappeared again in an instant.

Gong Yan took Wu Zhong and the others to look around, only to see a huge bookshelf of unknown material located in the main hall, starting from the first floor to the seventh floor, straight up. The collection of books is innumerable, and the further you go, the more ancient the atmosphere becomes. The three of them walked among them, and from time to time they met the same door who was reading hard with steamed buns, some of them frowned, some of them suddenly brightened, and they had different expressions.

Wu Zhong walked to a bookshelf and opened a book casually, which recorded some anecdotes, and occasionally the experience of his predecessors' writing, densely spread out on a piece of paper, but it was not messy. Whenever Wu Zhong's eyes swept over, the information of the words would come into his mind and be imprinted in it.

Wu Zhong suddenly felt novel, flipped through this and looked at that, and walked around. Gao Fei's behavior was different from Wu Zhong's, but he held a book and looked at it carefully.

Gong Yan looked at the appearance of the two, and he began to look for the classics he needed in his heart.

After the novelty, Wu Zhong stood in front of a bookshelf, his thoughts drifting. He recalled what he had just said to his senior brother, and he asked himself why he hadn't been selected, and Miyahiko replied like this.

"The foundation of a monk is like building a house, and only when the foundation is laid can a solid house be built. And you, you've only been cultivating for half a year, but you've already reached the middle stage of cause, and you're still in the middle stage of enlightenment, and it's still unguided, so it stands to reason that all of this is really rare, and it is not an exaggeration to even call it a genius. But that's why you're shortcoming.

"No one to guide you, your heart is impetuous, resulting in an unstable foundation, like a castle in the air, a mirror and a moon, unrealistic. All your shortcomings naturally emerge one by one in the eyes of all the masters. Think about it, if it were you, a blank piece of paper, or a piece of paper that has already been smeared, which one would you choose?

"No one wants to waste their energy, and no one wants to gnaw on a hard bone that I don't know how. Of the more than 50 of you, you are the only one. Everyone else has a heritage, and the foundation is solid compared to you, so it is natural that you will not be selected in comparison. ”

"But what should I do?" Wu Zhong asked.

"Re-cultivate. Gong Yan said, "In the library building, there is a book called "Tracing the Origins of the Sutra", and the specific author is no longer verifiable. This scripture has no characteristics in front of other scriptures, and is even only a middle-level qualification. But one of the characteristics of it is that you keep starting from scratch, in other words, every time you reach a stage of practice, once the foundation is unstable, you start all over again. This characteristic is a headache for practitioners, but looking at it, how many people in the human world have a solid foundation and are as solid as a rock? Naturally, few people will expend their energy to cultivate this mental method. ”

"Tracing the Origins of the Sutra" is now to solve the fundamental problem of Wu Zhong's cultivation. But the question now is, where is this "Tracing the Origins Sutra"?

Wu Zhong looked at more than a dozen seven-story towering bookshelves, the number of books in the collection was unknown, and it was really a needle in a haystack to find a copy of the "Tracing the Origins Sutra" from them.

Wu Zhong looked around these bookshelves, and he really didn't know where to start. And in the higher places, everyone else is floating in the air to get books, and their strength is not good now, and they can't reach the collection of books in high places, what should I do?

Goofy held a book in his hand and walked towards him step by step: "You can look over there." After saying that, he nodded nervously and left.

Wu Zhong walked in the direction of his finger, only to see countless books stacked together in an orderly manner, and there was everything in them. On the surface, there are "Ruyi Stick", "Blue Water Jue", "Getaway", and Wu Zhong even saw "Golden Vase Plum" from it.

Wu Zhong squatted in front of this pile of books, feeling helpless. And at this time, several people were standing behind him.

"Yo! Isn't this the master who was almost eliminated that day? Why are you squatting here?"

"It is estimated that the master does not have a good mental method to teach, so he will want to find some treasure in this pile of garbage!"

"Also, his master's appearance, he must not have any ability, it is estimated that he has survived to his current position by his qualifications. ”

Wu Zhong didn't want to deal with it, but what the other party said became more and more unpleasant, he turned around and looked, it turned out to be Lin Yirong, Gao Yiqiong, who had befriended Qiu Haoxuan that day, and someone he hadn't seen before.

"Do I know you very well?" Wu Zhong said a little angrily, "Who of you just said bad things about my master, stand up, otherwise I will definitely teach you a lesson." ”

"Oh, hey, the master is angry, what are we going to do?" said the young man who had never seen it, pretending to be afraid.

"I don't know, or we apologize?" Gao Yiqiong said with a playful face.

Lin Yirong snorted: "What a master, it's something that no one wants." ”

Wu Zhong was furious when he heard this, he said that he could endure anything else, but this sentence "something that no one wants" made him instantly think of when he was a child, and others scolded him for "something that no mother raised". Just as he was about to teach the other party a lesson, a person suddenly walked out, and this person was Qiu Haoxuan.

"Brother Lin, what are you doing?" Qiu Haoxuan said.

When a few people looked back, it turned out to be Qiu Haoxuan, and they suddenly converged a lot. Lin Yirong, who was the leader, said with a smile: "We didn't do anything, we just laughed with Senior Brother Wu." Then he turned to look at Wu Zhong, "Senior brother won't blame Senior Brother for my abrupt words, if I really provoke Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I will make amends here." After saying that, I bowed down and apologized, and I really couldn't fault this set.

Qiu Haoxuan didn't say anything, pulled Wu Zhong and left, while the three looked at the backs of the two and walked away with a sneer.

"Angkor, don't pay attention to them, those people are deliberately making you angry. Qiu Haoxuan saw that Wu Zhong was still displeased, and he explained.

"Why? I didn't provoke them. Wu Zhong said.

"It's not because of your master, you let all the masters present take out a magic weapon with a word, isn't this letting them cut the flesh?" Once you do it here, look there," Qiu Haoxuan pointed to several figures in the air, "They are members of the inspection team, and these people are specially responsible for taking care of the library pavilion." Once someone makes trouble, they will not be allowed to enter the library for life. ”

Wu Zhong was indignant in his heart, but when he heard Qiu Haoxuan say it at this time, he was also a little afraid, fortunately he appeared in time, otherwise the consequences could be imagined.

"Lin Yirong just now, apprentice Bai Wei, is the one who was reprimanded by your master as soon as possible. And Bai Wei happens to be the person in charge of the Scripture Pavilion, so when he sees you here, he will naturally come to be embarrassed. Qiu Haoxuan continued.

Wu Zhong didn't expect that in this hall of cultivation, the Lanling Xiao clan, there would also be such filthy people.

"My brother is here too, I have to hurry over, or he will cause trouble. "The junior brother Wu Zhong said refers to Gao Fei, and the seniority of the two has been arranged by the senior brother Gong Yan.

Qiu Haoxuan heard this and hurriedly ran over with Wu Zhong. Before the two arrived, they heard Goofy shouting loudly.

"Stay away from me!"

"Stay away from me!"

Wu Zhong and the others arrived, and happened to see Lin Yirong and the three of them surrounding Gao Fei, and they didn't speak, just surrounded him. This already made Gao Fei a lot of nervous in his heart, he was most afraid of getting too close to strangers, obviously Lin Yirong and the three of them already knew his weakness, and they were looking at him with a smug look on his panicked face.

Wu Zhong was about to shout, but he heard a voice behind his ears: "What are you doing!"
