Chapter 8: Wind Breath
In the afternoon, I learned the basic method of making elementary runes, and today I learned about the selection of materials, that is, the selection of paper and cinnabar for making runes. The person who taught the class was a very old man, very short, with a lot of wrinkles on his face, so many that he could hardly see his expression, one of the elders of the academy, Elder Xuanyu.
Dongfang Yingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief after observation, it seems that everyone's starting point is about the same, because she and a dozen other students are not within the scope of recruitment, most of the students recruited here are family members who are cultivators, Dongfang Yingyue has always been afraid that she will not be able to keep up with the progress of learning.
After all, when you get here, you have to adapt to the environment here, if everyone here practices magic, but you can't, then you don't have to stay in the academy all the time and can't go out. couldn't help but look at Shen Nianshan and saw that she was studying very seriously.
The first day of study has passed like this, except that the course is a little boring, it belongs to sitting on the ground, which makes Dongfang Yingyue the most unhappy, the classroom is a bookcase, and sit on the ground, at the end of this day, my butt hurts, my feet are a little numb, and I feel sleepy, but there is also the homework of the Taoist class, and Master Yangping has been reading all those in the morning, all of which have to be copied down, which is not much.
I didn't eat too much for dinner, and I was a little hungry after copying the scriptures, but I didn't want to eat the steamed buns in the storage bag, so I was hungry and meditated at night.
Yinyue asked his disciples to meditate three times a day, one hour from the beginning of Qingchen, half an hour at noon and half an hour at night, at this time, the emphasis was on the law of nature, and the aura of heaven and earth was guided and exhaled in the body, which was also intended to hone the will of the practitioner.
After meditating, Dongfang Yingyue fell asleep, and learning was never easy, so at the end of the day, as soon as it touched the bed, he would fall asleep.
After a busy month and a half, a new course has been added, and every five days, I have to get up in the middle of the night to watch the stars, which is also part of astrology.
The already tired practice is even more hectic.
After another three months, one day at noon, when Shen Nianshan and Li Guangyuan were having dinner together, Li Guangyuan was very excited to tell them that he had tested his spiritual breath in his classroom today, and he was the spiritual breath of the earth himself.
Thinking that she and Shen Nianshan were also in the afternoon spell class, Dongfang Yingyue was also looking forward to it in her heart.
An old man with gray hair and a smile came to the classroom, Dongfang Yingyue knew that this morning was a magic class, this was the first time this kind of class had been arranged since she entered the school, and she was looking forward to it.
This old man is Xuanshui, one of the elders of the academy, and I heard that he is a master with high attainments in magic, and now he sees that it is very valuable to feel such an approachable master, so he has a little closeness.
Elder Xuanshui gave each person a jade plate, and instructed everyone to slowly put their hands on the jade plate, guiding the breath in their bodies to fall from their fingers onto the jade plate.
A few people succeeded first, only to see a faint green slowly rising in the air above the jade plate in front of one of the students, and a light brown gritty substance flowing on the jade plate.
Elder Xuanshui explained, "That faint green color is wood, which means that this student is suitable for cultivating wood-based spells, and the light brown color is earth, which is also suitable for this student's cultivation of earth-based spells. Generally speaking, a person will only practice one kind of magic system in his life, and this kind of thing is more important than fine, not more, and concentrating on practicing one kind of magic will benefit people for a lifetime. If you practice a variety of spells indiscriminately, it is likely that there will be serious consequences due to the confusion of the spells. ”
Seeing that most of the classmates were flowing with different colors in front of them, Dongfang Yingyue was a little anxious, was it not suitable for him to practice any magic? What should I do, the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't concentrate, and the more difficult it was to channel the breath in my body.
Elder Xuanshui walked up to Dongfang Yingyue and said sharply, "Concentrate and don't be disturbed by the outside." And put a nodule around her so that she could not see or hear any sound outside.
In such an absolutely quiet space, Dongfang Yingyue finally put back her chaotic mind, and concentrated on guiding the breath in her body, and in less than a stick of incense, a stream of air appeared on the jade plate in front of her, but she couldn't see any color, and just when she was surprised that her condensed aura was different from others, the enchantment was opened.
Elder Xuanshui glanced at the jade plate in front of Dongfang Yingyue, and immediately explained: "This is the wind, a rare kind of spiritual breath, the common ones are water, fire, earth, and wood, as for the kind of spiritual breath that is not important, the important thing is the results of cultivation, any attribute has good cultivation, there are also bad ones, there are no shortcuts on this road, only hard work, so you must study carefully in your days in the academy." ”
It seems that he is the last to condense his breath, Dongfang Yingyue is very annoyed, once there are many people, it is difficult for his spirit to concentrate, it seems that he has to correct this shortcoming.
Dongfang Yingyue was very happy to learn this course, and it had always been something written before, and she felt that it was very boring. Because it was far away from Shen Nianshan's seat, Dongfang Yingyue didn't see her spiritual breath clearly, and only had time to ask her after class in the afternoon.
When the three of them ate together in the evening, they all felt that their spiritual breath was amazing, the three of them were different, Li Guangyuan was earth, Shen Nianshan was fire, Dongfang Yingyue and Li Guangyuan both felt that Shen Nianshan's taciturn appearance should be ice.
But Li Guangyuan looked a little strange when he learned that the spiritual breath of Dongfang Yingyue was wind.
"We didn't find anyone over there. ”
Later, Li Guangyuan told him that it was rare to have wind spirit breath, so he had the least number of spells, and he was also the weakest in spells, but he was stronger than other spirit systems in terms of speed.
I thought that I could make things scarce and expensive, but I didn't expect it to be like this, Dongfang Yingyue sighed for a long time in her heart.
Dongfang Yingyue was depressed, and thought that she was different from others, what kind of luck did she go, it turned out that it was not like that at all, the law of scarcity is expensive will not work here at all!
"It's nothing." Dongfang Yingyue said to herself: "Elder Xuanshui didn't say that it doesn't matter what kind of spiritual breath it is, what matters is the final result, it seems that I should look for more relevant information." If you want to settle down, you have to follow the local customs. ”
In the Hidden Moon, all learning is gradual, such as this spiritual breath, if they are allowed to condense the breath in their body as soon as they come up, it should not be possible for many people to do it, but after three months of meditation and condensation in the morning, noon and evening, it is much easier.
It is worthy of being the largest academy, and the method of study is very exquisite. Dongfang Yingyue is very satisfied with her coming here: "I was really lucky to go to the best school casually." ”
