Chapter 3 This Decade in a Hurry
The year when Lu Yu was born in the Song Dynasty was the fifth year of Song Chongning, 1106 AD.
That year, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was only a twenty-five-year-old young emperor, and the traitor Cai Jing had just entered the core of power, and at that time, he had not yet had time to completely corrupt Song Huizong.
That year, Huizong was still a good emperor who was full of vigor and wanted to make a difference.
That year, he had not yet become a famous emperor in history, a great artist emperor of the past and the present.
Lu Yu, who has memories of his previous life and adult brain power, gradually stabilized his emotions after experiencing a brief shock of being reborn in a new world.
Subsequently, he didn't want to be treated as a monster, so he began to soar his acting skills, doing things according to the way a baby should be: crying when he was hungry, screaming when he wanted to poop, and laughing when he was teased......
However, Lu Yu is not a professional actor after all, and his acting skills are not so "superb", so compared to a real child, the child he plays is still a little sluggish.
So, after growing up to three or four years old, although there was nothing wrong with it, the elders of the Lu family all decided that Lu Yu was a bit of a "stupid" stupid child.
can make the elders of the Lu family draw the almost absurd conclusion that he is a nerd from Lu Yu, in addition to the slightly blunt acting skills of Lu Yu when he played a child, but also because, they often see Lu Yu sitting alone by the pond in the Lu Mansion to watch the fish, and it is an afternoon to watch, and sometimes, they even see Lu Yu sitting on the edge of the gate of the Lu Mansion, quietly observing the pedestrians on the street outside, and also looking at it for an afternoon.
Those people don't know that Lu Yu, who watched the fish on the edge of the pond, was just nostalgic for his past life, and he was sitting at the gate of the Lu Mansion watching people, just adapting to this era and his new identity.
After Lu Yu began to read and write at the age of five, he no longer had the problem of watching fish and people, but the Lu family, who had formed prejudices, still persistently felt that compared to other children in Lu Mansion, Lu Yu was still a little stupid.
However, after discovering that Lu Yu's literacy ability was no worse than that of other children in Lu Mansion, and even slightly stronger, the inherent prejudice of the elders of Lu Mansion against Lu Yu had changed.
Because he has begun to read and write, Lu Yu, who has been playing a "sluggish child" for five years, finally has an excuse to go to his father's study to borrow those Chinese medicine works on meridian and acupuncture points.
Although Lu Yu took a lot of books from his father Lu Long's study every time he borrowed them, Lu Long did not find anything abnormal, because Lu Long was not a literati, although he was also literate, but it was still very difficult for a business elite like him who rolled around in the mall all year round to socialize, so he rarely came to the study, and his study was more of a symbolic space.
After reading a large number of works on traditional Chinese medicine, five-year-old Lu Yu has the basic knowledge conditions to practice the two exercises on the "Ghost Sutra".
It only took a year, relying on the innate true qi in his body that had not completely dissipated, Lu Yu was able to get started with the exercises depicted in the "Qi Cultivation Formula", and there was already a weak flow of spiritual qi in his body.
Watching him use the aura in his body to knock over a pot of daffodils on the windowsill five meters away from his bedside, Lu Yu was so excited that he trembled and burst into tears, and his face bloomed with a smile that should not belong to a six-year-old child.
Although the "Qi Cultivation Technique" does not record the various stages of this exercise in terms of skill, Lu Yu, who had read countless Xianxia books in his previous life, shamelessly thought that at this moment, he should already be a monk in the Qi cultivation period.
Although he didn't know if the cultivation stage of the monks of this Great Song Dynasty world was divided into the Qi cultivation period, the foundation building period, and the Jindan period as described in the Xianxia novel, but in order to facilitate memory and formulate the cultivation goals of the next stage, Lu Yu determined that the cultivation system of the Great Song Dynasty was exactly the same as that described in the Xianxia novel.
At the same time, Lu Yu, who was already seven years old that year and had already cultivated to the "Qi Cultivation Period", set a goal for the next stage of cultivation, that is: to continue to cultivate, strive to enter the "Foundation Building Period", and become a true monk.
Because he died once, Lu Yu knows very well the preciousness and fragility of life, he wants to live longer, he doesn't want to be like the previous life, hanging up in his twenties, he also wants to become stronger, and he doesn't want to be like the previous life, bustling among living beings like ants.
Therefore, Lu Yu knows very well that "The Book of Ghosts" is the golden finger that changes his fate, and whether he can change his life against the sky depends on whether he works hard enough to study the two exercises on the "Book of Ghosts".
While studying the first exercise on the "Ghost Sutra", Lu Yu did not delay the cultivation of "Ghost Formula", but "Ghost Formula" is different from "Qi Cultivation Formula", "Ghost Formula" is a simple eye training, which requires the cooperation of pills, and Lu Yu, who was only seven years old at the time, it was difficult to get the medicinal materials in the pill formula, after all, heavy metals such as dansha, lead, and mercury required in the formula may not be able to buy it even if you want to, not to mention that the formula also includes more difficult to find items such as ten years of wild ginseng.
As a result, Lu Yu's cultivation of the "Ghost Technique" was not as fast as his cultivation of the "Qi Cultivation Technique".
That is, when Lu Yu was seven years old, Zhou Yanchen, the governor of Guozhou, died, and before he died, he sent Mu Hanxiang to Lu Mansion and handed it over to his close friend Lu Long, that is, this year, Lu Yu met Mu Hanxiang.
Another year passed, and the eight-year-old Lu Yu had achieved some success in cultivating the "Qi Cultivation Technique", and he was already able to use the aura to retrieve things from the air within a radius of one meter, and at this time, he felt that he was closer to the "foundation building period".
The next year, the nine-year-old Lu Yu, who already had the ability to take things from the air within a radius of one and a half meters, began to buy a large number of Taoist books, in this era when even the emperor believed in Taoism, Lu Long still admired his son's hobby of collecting Taoist books to read, after all, if nothing else, at least in the official career, Taoist thought is definitely a stepping stone close to the core of power, the more you know about Taoism, the more benefits you will have in the future.
Another year, ten-year-old Lu Yu, after spending three years of hard work, finally collected all the raw materials in the elixir formula recorded in the "Ghost Recipe" and prepared for alchemy.
In his previous life, Lu Yu majored in biochemistry in college, and almost all of his four years of college were spent in the laboratory, so Lu Yu was not unfamiliar with work like alchemy, and it seemed that he had a feeling of being caught.
So, according to the requirements of the recipe, Lu Yu put the raw materials into a small copper pot to boil, and after boiling for half an hour, an incident that made him stunned happened, that is: the pure copper pill pot for boiling the pill exploded......
