The old man stood under the eaves, and through the crack in the door, he saw Gu Qing shaking his head and reading hard, showing a knowing smile. It's not his ruthlessness as a father, but his heartache as a last resort, when his six sons died one after another. He didn't want his only surviving son to die again.
"Almost, my old bones should be able to last for three years!Hey, Xiao Qi, the road ahead is up to you!" the old man said to himself in a very low voice. If it weren't for this little son, he wouldn't have had to hide at all!
After feeling that the old man was leaving, Gu Qing slammed the poisonous herbs on the table and breathed a sigh of relief.
"My voice is almost hoarse, and my master didn't work hard like this when he was going to graduate school! I have memorized a hundred kinds of poisonous weeds, and I can deal with this old guy for a day or two for the time being. The young master is a scholar, and he has the ability to never forget, hum!" Gu Qing smug himself and stood up.
"I don't know anything about this world, sooner or later it will be exposed, so let's find some information first!"
More than a dozen large bookshelves are stacked with books, all kinds of books.
Gu Qing spent a long time pulling out an old book called "Thousands of Records" from the bookshelf that was more than two people high.
When I opened the book, which was covered in a layer of dust, I was greeted by dense text.
An hour later, Gu Qing put down the book "Thousands of Notes", a smile appeared on his face, in this book he found what he wanted.
This is a world that respects poison, and there are a total of seven continents in this world, namely Haotian Continent, Tongtian Continent, Infinite Continent, Empty Continent, Cloud Sea Continent, Wanyun Continent, and Hongmeng Continent.
There are thousands of ways to cultivate poison arts, according to incomplete records, there are about thousands, in the passage of time, many schools have become extinct, and now the mainstream ones are: Dan cultivation, instrument cultivation, spiritual cultivation, Gu cultivation, and flower fairy.
The main cultivation path of Dan cultivation is to use the poison pill to cultivate. The poison pill is made by the alchemist from various poisonous herbs. The Dan Xiu school is the most difficult to cultivate among the many schools, and it is extremely difficult.
Instrument repair is a school that specializes in poison weapons. Poison weapons can be roughly divided into poison control spirit weapons and poison spirit weapons.
Devotional is a school that majors in poisonous beasts. Poisonous beasts can be attacked and defended, and they are very tricky.
Gu cultivation is a genre that specializes in Gu poison.
The flower fairy is a genre that majors in flower poison.
Haotian Continent has a lot of rain, which is suitable for the growth of poisonous weeds. The entire Haotian Continent is basically Dan Xiu.
The school that prevails in the Tongtian Continent is instrument cultivation.
The school that prevails in the Infinite Continent is Gu Cultivation, and the Empty Continent that is close to it is indeed full of flower fairies.
The Sea of Clouds Continent and the Ten Thousand Clouds Continent are spiritual worlds.
The Hongmeng Continent, where the strong are like clouds, is indeed a gathering of various genres.
Gu Qing kept turning the pages, the more he turned the page, the more excited he became, and after a long time, he fell asleep in a daze.
"Stinky boy, get up!"
As soon as the words fell, the sound of wooden sticks hitting the table woke Gu Qing up.
As soon as Gu Qing opened his eyes, the wooden stick with the thickness of his arm dangled in front of him, he gasped and hurriedly sat up.
"Dad, are you back?" Gu Qing wiped the saliva from his mouth and said politely.
The old man said angrily: "Stinky boy, you can really sleep, it's dawn! You go and wash up briefly, and I'll continue to test your poisonous weed scripture later." ā
Gu Qing sighed, lowered his head and walked out, looking absent-minded.
"You carry the poison of a grade of poisonous grass and bitter grass!" "The white old man held a wooden stick in his hand and said to Gu Qingdao, who had come back from washing. The wooden stick was waiting in his hand to "show off his might".
Gu Qing sneered in his heart, and said unhurriedly: "Kuze grass, a first-grade poisonous grass, an annual herb, with erect stems, stout, green or purple, few branches, and five inches high. Leaves alternate, leathery, ovate-lanceolate, margins with sparse spines. The whole grass is poisonous, grows mainly in swamps, and loves water. Non-main Dan grass. ā
The white old man sighed and continued: "Snow is green."
Gu Qing coughed lightly, and once again confidently memorized the poison of a grade of poisonous grass Xueliqing, which was good.
After mentioning a few more poisonous weeds, the old man was very satisfied.
Between the questions and answers, Gu Qing had already memorized a full twenty kinds of poisonous weeds, all of which were good.
The old man put down the wooden stick in his hand and praised: "Yes! Wait here, I'll come when I go!"
After a while, he walked in with a basket of herbs, took out a pale yellow poisonous weed, and said, "What kind of poisonous weed is this?"
Gu Qing glanced at it lightly, and then said, "A product of poisonous herbs and bamboo." ā
The white old man nodded, took out another cyan poisonous weed and said, "What about this one?"
"Water Huoxiang!" Gu Qing said after glancing at it.
"What about this one?" said the old man with another poisonous weed.
"A product of poisonous weeds to smallpox!"
The old man was not convinced, and pulled Gu Qing into the yard and said, "Look at what kind of poisonous weeds are planted in our yard?"
Gu Qing stood under the eaves, pointed to the poisonous weeds and said: "A product of poisonous weeds, ox tongue grass, mille-feuille roots, Aran grass, wild ginseng." That snow-white is a second-grade poisonous weed thatch, and that one is..."
"That's enough!" interrupted the old man, and the joy in his words was self-evident. After saying that, he walked into the back room.
Gu Qing snorted a few words in a low voice behind him, as if he was praising himself for being smart.
"Sit down! Yes, very good! Does your head still hurt?" said the white old man after sitting down, and said to Gu Qing with concern. It seems that Gu Qing's performance made him very satisfied, otherwise he would not be so kind.
Gu Qing sat down "timidly", deliberately rubbed his head and said, "Dad, my head is fine, it doesn't hurt very much!"
"Xiao Qi, one day you will understand your father's good intentions. Dad's old bones won't live long, Dad wants you to grow up quickly and stand on your own!" The white old man squinted his old eyes and said seriously, the wrinkles on his face stretched and shrunk, as if to remind him: It is indeed very old.
Gu Qing nodded heavily, indicating that he would definitely work hard to recite the Poisonous Herb Sutra.
"Dad, I don't understand a few questions!" Gu Qing saw that the old man was in a good mood at this time, and hurriedly asked.
"What don't you understand?" said the old man.
"Dad, Dan Xiu is the weakest of the many schools, far inferior to spiritual cultivation and the like. What's the use of me putting so much effort into reciting the Poisonous Herb Sutra?" asked Gu Qingfa.
The old man glanced at Gu Qing and said coldly: "What do you know about your little family! Thousands of years ago, when the continent was first divided, there were hundreds of continents at that time, and our Haotian Continent ranked eighty-nine among the many continents. Who would have thought that in the midst of countless battles, the inconspicuous Haotian Continent at that time could stand forever and become an existence as famous as the Hongmeng Continent. Do you know what this depends on?"
"Could it be Dan Xiu?" Gu Qing asked rhetorically.
"Yes, it's Dan Xiu. Among the many genres, Dan Xiu is the most special and completely different from the others. Other schools of thought cultivate the outside, while Dan Xiu does follow the path of internal cultivation. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand!" Gu Qing's head shook like a drum.
The old man took the trouble to explain: "Other schools such as spiritual cultivation and instrumental cultivation are all external objects, while our Dan cultivates our own physique, that is, the poisonous body. The human body is very fragile, and it is easy to be poisoned to death if one is not careful. In the eyes of other schools, we Dan Xiu are crazy people who cause fire. In the early stage, Dan Xiu was indeed inferior to other schools, but once the poison body was completed, Dan Xiu's domineering ability could be fully displayed, and crushing other schools was like pinching an ant to death!
"I still don't quite understand! What is a poison body? Poison Pill, Main Dan Grass, Auxiliary Dan Grass, what are these?" Gu Qing asked like a cannonball.
The old man said: "You don't understand, and I can't blame you! Dad has never told you this before, and it is Dad's fault that he just blindly lets you memorize the Poisonous Herb Sutra! Speaking of Dan Xiu, I have to mention a profession, poison refiner." The poison pill is made by the refiner using poisonous weeds. The cultivation method of Dan Xiu is: swallow the poison pill and refine it, and use the poison in the poison pill to strengthen your own ** little by little. The poison body is complete, and all poisons will not invade. The top Dan cultivation powerhouse, with one dozen five, with one dozen ten. One person can single-handedly take on ten strong people of the same rank, think about it, how domineering and perverted this is!"
Gu Qing's mouth shape had already turned into an "O" shape in surprise, and the white old man glanced at him and continued: "Dan Xiu is the foundation of my Haotian Continent, and now there are many sects that have given up the path of Dan Xiu and changed to other schools, it's ridiculous to drop the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds!"
The old man stood up, went to the bookshelf to find a dozen books, piled them in front of Gu Qing, and said: "These are books that record other genres, if you are interested, you can read them at will! In my opinion, other schools are evil sects and crooked paths, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance! Although Dan cultivation is difficult, it is indeed the road of the strong!" After finishing speaking, he left.
The dust was flying, Gu Qing brushed it with his sleeve, gently wiped the thick dust on the book, and the handwriting on the cover became clear little by little.
"The Key of Spiritual Cultivation", "Raising Flowers and Planting Trees", "Ten Thousand Instruments", "Gu Cultivation Ceremony"..."Gu Qing read while wiping the dust.
Needless to say, "The Key to Spiritual Cultivation" is an introduction to spiritual cultivation; "Raising Flowers and Planting Trees" should be an introduction to the flower fairy school; "Wanqilu" must be an introduction to instrument cultivation; then "Gu Cultivation Dictionary" is needless to say that it is also an introduction to Gu cultivation, and as for this thickest "Ten Library Quanshu", it must be a record of other small schools.
"Hey, why don't you have a book about Dan Xiu?" Gu Qing said as he looked around at the books. He checked it again, and there was indeed no book about Dan Xiu, and finally gave up completely.
Gu Qing casually picked up an old book called "Tiannan, Earth and North" and read it. This book records the materials of the refining vessel, and there are all kinds of things.
The sound of flipping books slowly filled the room, and Gu Qing slowly swam in the sea of books like a fish.
