026 Six-year-old Soul Root!
Since the last 100th birthday banquet of the head of the family, Mu Ying has not been out of the Jincao Courtyard much. I spent most of my time reading that. This book is always in short supply for the Mu family, not to mention other people, just the disciples of Dantang are everyone who has to read it. Fortunately, it was Uncle Feng who came out, and everyone tolerated her borrowing for so long because of the face of the three elders.
Not long ago, Mu Ying had finished reading the entire book and returned it to the library pavilion. Because of the long time she took and the meticulousness she had seen, she even remembered the characteristics of each spirit grass included in it clearly.
Although the name of this book is Wancao Pu, in fact, there are thousands of kinds in it. You must know that there are countless strange flowers and plants in the entire immortal cultivation world, how can there be thousands of kinds that can be listed in detail?
I memorized the whole book in my heart, and the uses, characteristics, etc. were also recorded accurately. This made Mu Ying feel the magic of the immortal cultivation world even more. Let her see a lot of spirit grasses with strange functions.
In addition to reading, the rest of her time is to accompany Mu Sha, and the two of them catch the gold and lithium in the lake together, fly kites, and collect delicious food in Xiafeng Mocheng.
The days are timid and fulfilling, but what is hidden under the peaceful life is a dangerous water.
Not to mention Mu Ying, whose mind has long matured, even Mu Sha, who has always had no heart and lungs, has not been able to smile during this time, and her heart is heavy.
For no other reason, they are all about to turn six.
For mortals, six years old, like any other age, is nothing special. But this is not the case for monks.
At the age of six, the spiritual root has been revealed, and then the spiritual root can be tested.
Mu Sha's birthday had passed a month ago, and today was Mu Ying's birthday.
It was supposed to be a happy day, but the atmosphere in Jincao Temple was a little strange.
Put away the inexpensive but warm little gifts given to you by Sasha, Aunt Xin and Uncle Feng, and lunch is a rather sumptuous feast. But Mu Sha and Mu Ying are a little unwilling.
Because just now, the head of the family had already sent someone to inform them to test the spiritual root in the ancestral hall tomorrow morning.
As soon as they said this, they immediately became nervous.
Ji Xin and Mu Jinfeng glanced at each other, and they were also unsure in their hearts.
Mu Ying and Mu Sha are both six years old this year, and the days of their birthdays are almost the same, according to the previous rules, they have to test the spiritual root together on the same day, their two children, but tomorrow will face the most important moment in their lives, they are parents, even if they have seen a lot of wind and waves in their lives, how can they be calm at this time?
Ji Xin first calmed himself down as much as possible, and then went to comfort the two children: "Don't be afraid, no matter what spiritual root you are, you can cultivate well." Isn't it in vain to think about it now? ”
Mu Ying took a few deep breaths and repeatedly persuaded himself: Didn't you always know that there would be such a day, so many days have passed, and there is only one more day, don't worry.
She wanted to open it, but Musha couldn't. Still frowning and drooping her head, she didn't even have the slightest interest in having so many things on the table that she usually liked to eat.
"Sasha, let's go to Yuyuan Street in the afternoon."
Hearing Mu Ying's suggestion, Mu Sha thought about it for a while, thinking that she already knew that she was going to test tomorrow, so if she stayed at home in the afternoon, I was afraid that she would always worry about this matter, so it was better to go out for a walk, maybe she would forget about it in advance. So he nodded yes.
When Ji Xin and Mu Jinfeng heard this, they also let go of their hearts.
As long as you are still in the mood to go out, it means that the mood is not so bad.
So in the afternoon, Mu Ying and Mu Sha left Mufu with two attendants and went to Youyuan Street.
Youyuan Street is a street in the south of Fengmo City.
The reason why it is named Youyuan Street is because there is a very large Tianfu Garden in this vicinity. This garden is very handsome, and there are many exotic flowers and unique buildings in it, so whether you are a mortal or a monk, you will occasionally like to come here to play and relax.
Don't think that a monk can't go out of the door except for cultivation. In fact, this is not the case at all. If you don't do anything and only focus on cultivation, you won't make much progress. People are people of the world, and naturally they have to go through all the things in the world in order to have a broad state of mind, and this is also very beneficial to cultivation. Of course, one cannot neglect one or the other, and if there is a monk who only cares about pleasure and does not know how to cultivate, then he will definitely not succeed in the future.
Mu Ying was also a little surprised when she heard Ji Xin tell her like this before. It felt like it was the same thing that those students in her previous life had learned. If a student only knows how to study, does not know how to feel current affairs, and does not care about interpersonal relationships and dealing with others, then his achievements after he comes out of school will be limited. If you only know how to play and don't learn all day long, then without the edification of cultural knowledge, this person's literacy and knowledge will not be enough. Only by handling both well and taking both into account will this person be a well-rounded talent and will go further in the future.
However, Mu Ying and Mu Sha didn't come here for Tianfu Garden, they only ran so far for this garden street.
Due to the popularity of Tianfu Park and the endless stream of tourists, it has also driven the economic development of the vicinity. Youyuan Street is very distinctive, and you can buy a variety of delicious street food here. These delicacies are more or less reiki because their ingredients are made with ingredients that contain aura. These foods are specially processed by the merchants, and can be consumed by both mortals and monks. Mortals eat it to strengthen their bodies, and it has a lot of benefits for the body.
But correspondingly, these delicacies are also expensive. But it's not a problem for Mu Ying and Mu Sha, the Mu family, one of the four major families in the dignified city, just some food, even if it is more expensive, they will not be taken into account.
When they came out, Ji Xin had already given Mu Sha enough spirit stones and gold and silver, which were enough for them to squander today.
The reason why I want to bring some gold and silver for mortals is because some shops only accept gold and silver, not spirit stones.
Mu Ying knew that Ji Xin was worried that the two of them would have to test tomorrow, and they would be in a bad mood because of the pressure today, so she deliberately asked them to come shopping and relax.
Maybe it's really a bad mood and needs to vent. The two of them bought things all the way along, but fortunately the attendants were all monks, so they could use storage bags, otherwise even if they were two big men, they wouldn't be able to take so many things.
I don't know if women are the same everywhere, when you are in a bad mood, you either go shopping with your girlfriends, go shopping spree, or eat some desserts, there is always something that will make your mood better. After the two of them walked around for more than an hour, the worries and entanglements at noon were completely gone, and Mu Ying didn't need to say it, Mu Sha puffed out her cheeks, her mouth was full of food, she was happy to eat, and her little face was full of smiles.
After buying satisfied, a few people went back to Mu's house. When Ji Xin saw the food that a guard took out from his storage bag that could be piled up into a hill, Rao was mentally prepared, and she couldn't help but jump her eyebrows. She was not distressed by the money they spent, but by the purchasing power of the two people.
But when she saw Mu Sha with a smile on her face and jumping around, she smiled with relief.
Mu Ying was thinking in her heart: A child is a child, and there are not many things that he can't let go of in his heart. Even if you're not very happy, when something diverts your attention, you won't pay attention to it anymore.
As soon as this day passed, we ushered in today's day that people are looking forward to and worrying about.
This morning, after tidying up, Mu Jinfeng and his wife took Mu Ying and Mu Sha to the ancestral hall.
But as soon as he arrived at the courtyard of the ancestral hall, Mu Ying was taken aback by the situation in front of him.
The last time Mu Wei and Mu Ke came to the test, because Mu Wei was the grandson of the second elder, there were already a lot of people who came to watch the test, but today, the number of people was more than double that of the last time!
Mu Ying looked around the audience and found that most of the people in it were people she didn't know, but they had already been photographed. is like the person who congratulated Ji Xin at the main banquet last time, like the cousin who refuted Huang Zhi and spoke for Mu Ying during the banquet. Even when Mu Ying shifted her gaze and looked to the side, she found that Huang Zhi herself had also come, and there was a middle-aged man with an old face and a numb expression standing beside her. Presumably that is her husband, Mu Jianlin. Their daughters have generally stayed in their yard since they went crazy, never going out, and no one else has ever seen them again.
When Mu Ying looked at Huang Zhi, the other party seemed to be aware of it, and sensitively looked at Mu Ying along the source of his gaze, and when he saw that it was her, he showed an unfathomable smile to her.
Mu Ying understood the content of her smile: Didn't they say that you have good qualifications, today I will come and see for myself whether your spiritual root is good or not!
But after a glance, Mu Ying looked away. For such a hard-working mother, it's just a few words of sarcasm for herself, and she won't be angry with such a person.
And when the people in the courtyard saw Mu Ying and the others, they all showed them a smile full of kindness.
Ji Xin and Mu Xinfeng also smiled politely back.
These people didn't gather around them chattering like they did at the last banquet, Mu Ying knew the reason: the results would come out soon, and if she was really a high-quality spiritual root, it would not be too late for these people to come to congratulate and curry favor again. Now is not the time for them to express themselves. Seeing that they didn't come in a swarm also made the four of them breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that some "good intentions" are sometimes not something that everyone can bear.
As more and more people came in the following time, Mu Ying's heart became tighter and tighter.
It's just a junior test, and there is no need for so many people to come and watch it. As long as one person in the family comes, go back and say that the whole yard will know. But with so many people coming today, there is only one possibility: these people are too curious about Mu Ying's spiritual root and want to find out.
Eventually, even the three elders were able to make up.
Mu Ying was already very calm at the moment, she quietly looked at the entrance of the courtyard, waiting for the arrival of the last person.
Sure enough, within a pillar of incense, the man arrived.
When he came, all the people in the courtyard bowed and saluted:
"I've seen the head of the house."
The person who came was Mu Sufeng, the head of the family.
Mu Ying knew that Mu Sufeng, who was very concerned about her, would not not be absent at a time like today. And that's exactly what happened.
Mu Sufeng was also stunned when he saw a yard of people, and then reacted:
"Alright, the people who have come to the test are here, now let's start the test."
