Chapter I

The years are merciless, because it is a knife to kill pigs.

Unconsciously, it will always cut a few knives on people's bodies, and those who stand still will be slaughtered inhumanly, and those who know how to go up will also leave some scars.

It's like a wild boar that was almost killed; There are also tigers that were beaten and fled; Wolves that have been worn out to the wild; White bears who have a psychological shadow of winter......

And so on and so forth.

They include, but not exclusively.

This shows how unforgiving time is.

However, there are always exceptions.

As one of the victims, Yuan Ling was different from those who were attacked by fierce beasts or demon beasts, and after being devastated for a while, she chose the latter.

Those cruel experiences became the trigger for her growth.

All this is thanks to Lin Shi's educational policy.

Ever since Wang Daoqing left the mountain gate and went to various places to look for opportunities, Lin would take Yuan Ling to other places from time to time to test the results of his cultivation.

At the beginning, due to his lack of strength, Yuan Ling really suffered a lot of damage.

Hit around like a boar.

The whole arm was held in the mouth by the tiger.

The limbs were bitten by wolves.

It became a sandbag for a white bear.

I was almost swallowed by a python.

……

Because of the magic weapon prepared by Lin Shi, whether it was a fierce beast or a demon beast, their attacks failed to harm the Yuan Spirit.

That being said.

Experiences like these are still creepy.

As a party to the case, Yuan Ling even doubted his life for a while, and always hid in the corner to draw circles afterwards.

Of course, it is inevitable that Lin Shi will complain a few words.

But that's just the beginning.

After a long time, he will always adapt, even if Yuan Ling is very introverted, he is still not spared.

Or the other way around.

When Yuan Ling began to adapt, Yuan Ling gradually got rid of introversion, and her heart grew significantly, and the best proof is that she no longer keeps all the pain in her heart.

At the beginning, Yuan Ling began to think in a circle while hiding in the corner.

The content is basically dissatisfied with Lin Shi.

This is the first step towards spiritual growth and independence.

After that, for a while, he began to murmur in front of Lin Shi.

This is the second step taken by Yuan Ling.

Later, he complained directly in front of Lin Shi.

Complaining is complaining, even if she is unwilling in her heart, she is still stubborn.

"Senior sister, you can do it."

"Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in your brother, if your brother says you can, you will definitely be able to."

For a long time, these two sentences became Lin Shi's mantra.

In addition, there are all kinds of inspirational words, and some Yuan Ling doesn't understand what it means, in short, they just feel very powerful, and they can't live up to their senior brother's expectations and so on.

The education from Lin Shi is not only about actual combat.

Cultivating the mind, Taoism, supernatural powers, psychological literacy, independent values, and so on did not fall behind.

After Lin Shi's good intentions, Yuan Ling has now grown into an outstanding Tianjiao.

Not only does he have the cultivation at the peak of the foundation building period, but he also has the strength to challenge the next level.

Mo said that he was a disciple who belonged to the peak of the foundation building period, even if it was the early stage of the Dan Dynasty, few of them could compete with Yuan Ling.

Duxiu Sect is a large sect, and the cultivation at the peak of the foundation building period can be said to be everywhere in the sect, but the cultivation of the Yuan Spirit is less than ten years, and there is a long period of time to accumulate actual combat experience, and the foundation is far from comparable.

In terms of potential, Yuan Ling is definitely among the best, not only the master, but even the elders are favored.

There are even rumors of immortal reincarnation.

Hawkers, strength is important, but the most prominent thing is Yuan Ling's appearance.

It's been 10 years since I started.

In ten years, Yuan Ling has grown from a petite and delicate girl to a very outstanding beauty.

Hawkers, in short, it should be concave and convex, the height is not much worse than Lin Shi, the complexion is snow-white, and there is a face with a compelling aura, and he is the dream lover of countless disciples in the door.

Personally, I think that's it.

It's not that his eyes are higher than the top, it's purely that he lives under the eaves next door all the year round, and he doesn't see what he looks up when he looks down, and he has long been accustomed to it.

Anyway, Lin Shi didn't treat Yuan Ling as the opposite sex.

No matter what Lin Shi thinks, in short, Yuan Ling has a lot of fame in Duxiu Sect.

In comparison, Lin Chang is a little bit beautiful, but he has a bit of grace, and he looks like a weak and unscrupulous person.

The result of living in a simple place, so that no one cares about it, and even after Yuan Ling has a certain fame, it is still little known.

It is no exaggeration to say that the identities of Yuan Ling and Lin Shi can be described as one in the sky and one in the ground.

Such a big gap is like a gap between the two, and it will inevitably go farther and farther away over time.

At least that's what Lin Shi thinks and expects.

It backfired.

"Senior brother, I don't know much about this place, you can tell me about it."

"Senior brother, I have made a breakthrough in cultivation, and now I am a ......"

"Senior brother, I recently learned another exercise, do you think I'm very smart and powerful?"

"Senior brother, have you heard?"

"Senior brother, I heard that Han Li made an appointment to fight Shi Hao, and I heard that many people will go to see it, so why don't we go and have a good time."

"Senior Brother......

"Senior Brother......

The education of Yuan Ling had actually stopped as early as three years ago.

Since then, Lin Shi has hardly taken the initiative to find Yuan Ling, as one of the victims, he thought that his junior sister would avoid him.

I never thought that Yuan Ling's little girl would run to him every once in a while, and it didn't matter if her cultivation encountered a bottleneck, the problem was that she would usually come to him for some inconsequential things.

Even if there is something unhappy, they come back to him to vent their bitterness.

Lin Shi doesn't remember teaching his junior sister this.

In order to distance himself from him, Lin Shi changed his style and played the role of a poisonous tongue.

"Do you have a mushy brain? I don't understand such a simple thing, I'm as stupid as a pig. ”

"And then? Seeing that my senior brother has not made any progress in the past ten years, he specially came to me to show off, is it just to show his sense of existence? Is it that when the wings are stiff, I learned to slap my face? ”

"The exercises are very good, but it's a pity that the people who learn are not good, and they just learned to show it, for fear that others don't know what hole cards they have, senior brother, I don't remember that there is such an unconscious sister as you."

"Have you forgotten everything I taught you? It's none of your business, if you don't retreat and cultivate, you will go all the way to watch others fight, and if you have nothing to do when you are full, you will go back to retreat and practice. ”

……

Since the cancellation of the actual combat experience, every time Yuan Ling came to find him, Lin Shi didn't say a word that he listened to.

is not to speak ill of each other, or to rely on the old and sell the old, and preach.

In normal times, it is even more ignorant of it.

For a long time, few ordinary people are afraid that they can stand it, after all, he is just a senior brother, but he does not have the same rank as an elder.

To put it mildly, it is to think very highly of yourself.

To put it mildly, it is that you can't recognize your identity.

At least that's what Lin Shi thinks.

Contrary to her wishes, Yuan Ling still tirelessly ran to him every once in a while, whether she was preached or scolded, she looked like she had nothing to do with herself.

There may also be some reasons for this.

Every time Yuan Ling came to ask for advice, Lin Shi also said something that he didn't like, and he still taught what he should teach, and explained to her that part of his cultivation experience.

Lin Shi was also very helpless.

Since accepting Yuan Ling as a closed disciple, Wang Daoqing has either been in retreat, or in order to deal with the three thousand tribulations, he has gone to look for opportunities outside the mountain gate.

This responsibility naturally fell on Lin Shi.

If he doesn't teach and something goes wrong while cultivating, then the responsibility will inevitably be held accountable to him, and he will become his inner demon in the future.

You must know that Yuan Ling is one of the most high-profile Tianjiao in the door.

If she did anything wrong, this matter would inevitably make a big fuss, and it would definitely involve him.

Secondly, Yuan Ling can be regarded as what she grew up watching.

Over time, there is still some friendship with the same family.

"It's really ......"

Didn't know what went wrong there.

In addition to practical experience, what he pays most attention to is obviously the value of independence.

After all these years, Yuan Ling is very good in other places, but he can't learn to be independent, and he has to rely on him for everything.

Just as Lin Shi was distressed, a news happened to reach his ears.

Sect experience!

Different from the trial conference, the so-called sect trial has a task given to disciples or elders within the door, and the task content is to lead a group of disciples in the door to go outside the door to conduct dangerous training.

Of course, not everyone can attend such conferences.

Duxiu Sect is a big sect, with thousands of disciples in the door, if anyone can participate, the door can take care of it.

To participate in the organization's sect training, two conditions need to be met.

First, it has the qualifications to be favored.

Second, have a certain degree of cultivation.

As far as Lin Shi knows, this time it was the elders of the inner gate who led the team, and the conditions were relatively strict, it was said that only Tianjiao could participate, and if he cultivated, he also needed to form a Dan period.

But well......

Rules are dead, people are alive.

Yuan Lingxiu is only at the peak of foundation building, but he has the strength above the early stage of the knot.

With such an achievement, presumably the elder couldn't find a reason to refuse, and Lin Shi felt that the feasibility was still very high.

It's better to act than to move.

After making a decision, Lin Shi did not hesitate, and immediately went to the elder who led the team.

Things went even better than expected.

After showing the token as a true disciple, he quickly met with the elder, and after a short conversation, he went straight to the point and mentioned his junior sister Yuan Ling.

After that, it was the same as Lin Shi expected.

Since Yuan Lingxiu only builds a foundation, the other party was a little hesitant at first, but he gave some benefits, dredged up the relationship, and the junior sister had a record of defeating the Yudan period, and finally the elder agreed.

Hawkers, in fact, the benefits are not given, and Yuan Ling can participate, but it costs a little more to talk and tongue.

The main thing is to let the elders take more care of Yuan Ling.

In this way, Lin Shi successfully registered Yuan Ling.

Just in case, Lin Shi didn't tell Yuan Ling about it, but first asked his uncle to help him hide it.

By the time Yuan Ling got the news, it was already the day before departure.

"Senior Sister Yuanling, Uncle asked me to inform you that you will leave tomorrow, please be sure to go to the square in advance and wait for a while."

"Go? Where to go? ”

"The location of this sect's training is the Gulin Mountains."

"Experience? When did I join the training? ”

Speaking of the training conference, Yuan Ling also knew a little bit, and he also knew that it was led by the elders.

It's just that she can't remember when she participated.

"Senior Sister Yuanling, didn't you listen to what your senior brother said?"

"Senior brother? That senior brother? ”

"I don't know very well, I heard that it was a senior brother surnamed Lin who reported the name, and the elders have agreed, if you don't participate after signing up, it will be regarded as teasing the elders, and you will be punished by the sect, and please wait for the junior sister to the starting place in advance."

As soon as he heard the surname Lin, Yuan Ling immediately guessed that this person was Lin Shi.

When he learned the news, Yuan Ling couldn't bear it anymore at that time, and left the senior brother who passed the message to ignore it, and hurriedly returned to Xiu'er Peak.

Although Yuan Ling was anxious to know the answer, due to Lin Shi's usual education, she didn't forget to knock on the door first.

"Come in, right?"

As if guessing who would visit, Lin Shi didn't ask who it was or what was going on, and opened the door directly.

Such a move undoubtedly added some credibility to the sect's experience.

Having said that, she was still skeptical until she got Lin Shi's answer.

Before she stepped into the room, Lin Shi, who was sitting at the wooden table, spoke first: "You want to ask about the sect's trial, right?" ”

"So, it's really Senior Brother, did you sign me up?"

"Sit down first."

Senior Brother's knowingly questioning has confirmed Yuan Ling's conjecture.

After all these years of getting along, she knew that what her senior brother did must be beneficial to her, but she still wanted to know.

The reason why the senior brother asked him to participate in the sect's training, and why didn't he tell her about it?

Lin Shi knew what he was thinking, but he didn't answer immediately.

He stretched out his hand and made a gesture, motioning for Yuan Ling to sit down, and at the same time, he also meant to let her calm down first.

Although Yuan Ling did not complain, she was very resentful in her heart, she pouted, walked to the wooden table, and sat down directly opposite Lin Shi.

Seeing Lin Shi pushing the cup full of tea in front of him, Yuan Ling was not polite, picked it up and took a sip, and suddenly calmed down a lot.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Lin Shicai said unhurriedly: "The sect's experience is indeed the name I helped you report. ”

Although Yuan Ling had been mentally prepared in advance, when the senior brother told him personally, his expression still changed slightly.

She took the teacup from her lips and put it back on the wooden table and asked, "Why?" ”

"Since you went up the mountain, junior sister, you have rarely left the mountain gate......

As soon as he heard Senior Brother's words, Yuan Ling couldn't help but murmured, "It's not that Senior Brother, you refuse to accompany me down the mountain." ”

Lin Shi heard the content, but he didn't take it to heart, and said to himself: "In the past, it was okay if your cultivation was still shallow, but now that you are already in the Great Perfection of the Foundation Building Period, you are only one step away from the Dan Formation Period, and it is time to go out and practice and experience." ”

"Senior brother can rest assured, now I have seen the threshold, the fastest two or three months, the slowest I also have the confidence to enter the Dan period within a year."

Yuan Ling patted his chest, smiling with full confidence.

It can be seen how confident she is.

Lin Shi doesn't think this is an exaggeration.

Others only know that Yuan Ling is a blessed Tianjiao, but few people know how much effort she has spent.

Lin Shi is different, Yuan Ling was taught by him, and he naturally knows how hard he works, if her success is distinguished by talent and hard work, then hard work accounts for three layers.

Hawkers, after all, Yuan Ling usually runs here every once in a while.

If she can spend this time on cultivation, her efforts will account for at least fifty percent, that is, fifty-five points.

In addition to running this way, Yuan Ling really worked hard at other times, otherwise he would not have been able to fight the battle of the Dan Period.

But.

"Don't you think you're progressing too fast?"

"It's all taught by the senior brother."

Yuan Ling stood up and bowed, and the posture was very standard.

Lin Shi saw it in his eyes, but he was a little tired.

When he was still in the world, the etiquette that Yuan Ling learned was all the woman's set, but that set was not applicable to the world of cultivating immortals.

After all, the cultivation realm is the weak and the strong, the strong are respected, and the etiquette of male superiority and female inferiority is a bit groveling, and many things can only be taught by him from Protestantism.

Now Yuan Ling uses what he taught to deal with him, and the meaning of ridicule is a bit strong.

"Don't pat me on the back, I told you this to tell you that your cultivation has improved too quickly, and it is easy for the foundation to be unstable if you continue like this."

"Senior brother has helped me lay a good foundation, and now I feel very good, and there is no need to participate in the training at all."

"It's only temporary."

"It's okay to say no in the future, it's useless to worry about it now."

"The foundation I laid for you is only physical, and the tempering of the mind needs to be seen and heard, only when you have seen all kinds of people and experienced all kinds of things, can you grow, and you will always be this child's heart because you have been hiding in the mountain gate."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shi heard Yuan Ling sigh lightly.

Seeing Yuan Ling's surprised and inexplicable appearance, Lin Shi was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

"Nothing, nothing."

Yuan Ling panicked.

It's clear that she's hiding something.

Seeing that she didn't plan to say anything, Lin Shi knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he turned a blind eye.

Just when Lin Shi wanted to get back to the topic, Yuan Ling hesitated for a moment and asked for no reason.

"If I participate in this experience and increase my knowledge, will I grow?"

"That's nature."

Lin Shi heard it in a fog, but still gave an affirmative answer.

"Then if I grow up, will my brother still treat me as a child?"

It's still a question of no beginning and no end.

However, Lin Shi had a sense of déjà vu.

That's right, that's the expression.

He had seen similar expressions many times when he was implementing the education policy for the Yuan Ling.

It's an expression that I want to be recognized.

From this, he could infer that with this momentum, there was a high probability that Yuan Ling would willingly agree to this sect experience.

So he said what Yuan Ling wanted to hear.

"If you see more, your heart will naturally become more mature, but if you don't want others to treat you as a child, you have to wait until you learn to be independent."

"I see."

"What do you understand?"

The conversation turned too fast, Lin Shi didn't figure out the reason for a while, but he didn't know why.

"Senior brother, I will participate in this sect training, no." Yuan Ling stood up, bowed his hand, and then lowered his head and begged, "Please let me participate, I must participate." ”

Somehow, Yuan Ling suddenly became full of interest.

It's not a bad thing for Lin Shi.

He had no reason to stop it at all, but he hoped that his junior sister would be able to participate.

After saying some common things, Yuan Ling left Lin Shi's room to prepare for tomorrow's sect experience.
