Chapter 013: Soul Eater Again
Zu Xiwei and I incensed the portrait under Qin Huaiwei's supervision, and then he called us to the study.
Zu Xiwei directly found a place to sit down, while I stood next to the desk and didn't dare to move.
There are a lot of books in this study, and many of them are ancient books on TV, I can't help but wonder, the books here can't be all martial arts secrets, right?
Qin Huaiwei looked at me and said to me, "You can also find a place to sit down." ”
I found a chair and sat down.
Qin Huaiwei said: "Zhang Mu, listen, from today onwards, Xiaowei will be your senior sister, and in the future, all your cultivation will be supervised by her, if you can't complete it, she can punish you at will." ”
I nodded "hmm".
Although Zu Xiwei is the same age as me, she has more knowledge than me and has broader horizons than mine, so there should be no problem teaching me, not to mention, I don't know what a "cultivation coursework" is now.
Qin Huaiwei continued: "Xiaowei, you also have to tutor this junior brother of yours well. ”
Zu Xiwei said: "I don't care. ”
Qin Huaiwei said again: "Then it's decided, tonight you supervise Zhang Mu to put three incense sticks in front of the ancestor, and then kneel in front of the ancestor for another three hours to be considered a ceremony, I have something to do, I want to go out?" ”
Zu Xiwei was a little unhappy and said, "You accepted him as an apprentice, you weren't there?" ”
Qin Huai said: "I have something big to do. ”
Zu Xiwei snorted, got up and slammed the door directly and left the room.
And I didn't dare to be presumptuous with Qin Huaiwei, so I could only ask in a whisper: "Which room do I live in?" ”
Qin Huaiwei said: "There are three bedrooms and a study here, the locked one is not allowed to enter, it is mine, and one is Xiaowei's, and the rest of the bedroom is yours, you can clean it up yourself." ”
I nodded.
When I was about to leave the study, Qin Huaiwei threw me a book and said, "Read it carefully when it's okay, and ask your senior sister if you don't understand, you don't need to understand the meaning of it, memorize it for me first." ”
I took the book and read it, it said "Lingmen Ancestral Teachings", and next to those four big characters, there were three small characters that I was familiar with - "Zu Kaishan".
I asked, "This is written by Zu Kaishan?" ”
Qin Huai said sharply: "How can you call the name of the ancestor directly?" Also, when you talk to me in the future, you have to call me 'Master' first, understand? ”
I nodded "oh".
When I got out of the room, I found that Zu Xiwei had already returned to the bedroom, and there was no one in the living room, so I wasted a lot of effort to drag the big bag of luggage to my room.
The room was huge, with a desk, chairs, and a neat big bed, and I enjoyed just looking at them.
After packing up everything, I went to read the book.
Sure enough, there are a lot of rare words at the beginning, and they are all in classical Chinese, and I don't know the words, let alone memorize them.
After reading it for a while, I felt a pain in my head and threw the book aside.
I was a little tired from the day's travel, and after reading the extremely boring book for a while, I crawled into bed and fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already evening, and Zu Xiwei knocked on the door and told me to get up for dinner.
And Qin Huaiwei is no longer at home.
Zu Xiwei said that the meals were all made by herself, so I could taste whether it was appetizing.
After I washed up, I sat down at the table and carefully put the vegetables in my mouth, although it was just a simple scrambled egg with tomatoes, but I felt that it was delicious, and I said in a loud voice: "Delicious, delicious!" ”
Zu Xiwei smiled and said: "If you like to eat, I will cook it for you every day, Qin Huaiwei, that old man, has never praised me for cooking deliciously, and he didn't eat it when I cooked several times." ”
After eating, Zu Xiwei supervised me to incense Zu Kaishan's portrait, and then I really knelt in front of the portrait for three hours, during which I wanted to go to the toilet and she wouldn't let me.
She became stern and did not lose to Qin Huaiwei at all.
Then Zu Xiwei began to tutor me to read the "Lingmen Ancestral Teachings", and this became the only thing I did during the winter vacation, except for eating and sleeping every day, I was almost reciting.
Through a winter vacation study, I also roughly understood some of the things in it.
It probably talks about some of the rules of the Lingyan Gate, as well as an introduction to some cultivation methods, and at the end of the book, several towers are described, and among those towers, there is one that I am familiar with.
Several other towers are distributed in Tiannan and Haibei, and some general introductions are made in terms of location, shape and function.
As to what those presentations were for, I have no way of knowing.
I asked Zu Xiwei if she knew.
She said: "Qin Huaiwei and Wang Shibo have spent their lives looking for those towers, saying that they can find out the secrets of those towers, and they can find a divine tower that can reach the sky, and they can become immortals and Buddhas by entering that sacred tower." ”
Become an immortal?
Hearing Zu Xiwei say this, I was also a little excited in my heart, if I found the Tower of Babel and became an immortal, wouldn't I have to be afraid of the blind king and Qin Huaiwei anymore, and it should be a very simple matter to get my soul back when the time comes.
Thinking so in my heart, I memorized the content of the last few chapters of the "Spiritual Sect Ancestral Teachings" very skillfully.
When the winter vacation was about to start, Zu Xiwei and I received a letter from Qin Huaiwei, which contained my admission procedures and some money.
Other than these, Qin Huaiwei didn't even have a word of inquiry and explanation.
Even when the winter vacation started, my admission procedures were handled by Zu Xiwei for me, and I was her distant cousin externally, and at home, I was his junior brother.
I didn't have any friends at school, and in Zu Xiwei's words, people like us didn't need any friends, so in school, I was a very introverted person, and my classmates thought I was a freak and didn't want to play with me.
Fortunately, my academic performance is good, and my teachers pay more attention to me.
As for Qin Huaiwei, I originally thought that he would come back after a month or two, but I didn't expect him to be gone for more than a year.
During this period, we often received money from him, and everything else was gone.
In the past year or so, I have memorized the book "Lingmen Ancestral Teachings".
Moreover, Zu Xiwei also assigned me some cultivation homework according to his own cultivation experience, and after more than a year, I have gradually mastered some of the essentials of cultivation, and I have been able to concentrate on cultivation.
The so-called concentration practice is to open up a separate consciousness space in one's own consciousness, and meditating and concentrating can connect that consciousness space with the pulse of the body, and then control the speed and flow of the pulse.
Through this practice, coupled with some physical exercises, the body can become extra strong, and it also helps to improve the memory of the brain, so that I became the second fastest person in school to memorize texts.
As for the first, it is naturally Zu Xiwei.
Zu Xiwei told me that in this practice, you must first concentrate your mind, then gather your energy, and then you can cast the spell, and then after several years of training, you will be able to become a heavenly master, and only after becoming a heavenly master can you be qualified to find the Tower of Babel and embark on the road to becoming an immortal and a Buddha.
At this time, I also understood that Qin Huaiwei and Wang Blind were already Heavenly Masters.
Speaking of the present, when Qin Huaiwei came back, Zu Xiwei and I were already eleven years old, and it was summer vacation.
And at that time, under the care and influence of Zu Xiwei, I became a city child alive.
When Qin Huaiwei came back, I was meditating in the room.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, I ran out with Zu Xiwei to see, and Zu Xiwei said directly: "You are finally willing to come back, I thought you were dead outside." ”
Qin Huaiwei's face was extremely ugly, his lips were pale, his body shivered a few times from time to time, and it was summer, but he was wearing very thick clothes, and he looked very cold.
Although Zu Xiwei was powerful, there was still a worry in her eyes, but she didn't make any caring moves.
Qin Huaiwei didn't pay attention to Zu Xiwei, but turned his head to look at me and said, "You, come to the room with me." ”
I instantly felt a sense of something wrong.
But I couldn't disobey Qin Huai's order, and my body walked directly towards Qin Huai Wei as if I didn't obey the call.
Zu Xiwei was stunned for a moment and asked Qin Huaiwei, what should I do.
Qin Huaiwei showed an expression of wanting to eat people, and then glared at Zu Xiwei with his lifeless eyes and said, "It's okay with you!" ”
Zu Xiwei was also stunned for a moment.
Many times, a child is always at a loss in front of the majesty of adults, even if it is the smart and independent Zu Xiwei.
Entering Qin Huaiwei's room, he directly pinched a finger and buckled it on the back of my neck, and I couldn't move at once, and then he took out three silver needles and pierced them on my forehead, palm and palm.
As before, he took another part of my soul and swallowed it.
And I don't have the strength to resist.
I could feel nothing but panic and despair.
After swallowing my soul, Qin Huaiwei took a deep breath, and then his expression recovered a lot, he took off the thick clothes on his body and said slowly: "Your soul is really a good thing, this level of injury, if I am allowed to recover by myself, I am afraid that it will not work in a month or two, but now I can heal in three days at most." ”
Qin Huaiwei smiled as he spoke, and then patted me on the shoulder, and I was able to move immediately while I was half sitting on the bed.
I looked at Qin Huai in horror and asked, "My soul will be eaten by you." ”
Qin Huaiwei smiled and said: "I took this point is just a drop in the middle, compared to what my senior brother took away, it is much worse, so you are still early from death, and I am reluctant to let you die." ”
Before I could speak, Qin Huaiwei said, "You clean up, take that iron box and follow me into the mountain, and call your senior sister." ”
"There are some things that I should let you experience for yourself."
I asked Qin Huaiwei if he was going to the place where he was injured.
He snorted and said, "If I take you there, it will be tantamount to sending you to death, and I will naturally take you to other places." ”
I'll ask Qin Huaiwei again, what are we going to do.
Qin Huaiwei has just eaten my soul, and I can't help but be resistant to what I have arranged.
Qin Huai said with a smile: "Go and catch a kind of man-eating bug, the process will ensure that you will never forget it, by the way, haven't you always wanted to find my senior brother to get back your lost soul, maybe you will meet him there." ”
The king is blind and will go too?
