Chapter 32: Making Up Your Mind (3)
Yi Laosi said:
"The gateway to the outside world from Qidi is in that temple, it is a high-level boundary-breaking spiritual weapon, every time you open that spiritual weapon, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and it costs at least three thousand spiritual yuan to pass once. Very few people in the land can afford it.
"The second is the problem of foothold, compared with the cultivation of outsiders, the cultivation of Qidi people is too low, even if they go out, they can't gain a foothold.
"Unless it's like those proud sons of the sky, although their cultivation is not high, they go out and have an outside spiritual mansion to receive and resettle, and the others go out and have no place to stand, so they spend money and find guilt!"
"Hearing you say that, have you been to the outside world?" the old man's words approached the core layer by layer.
Yi Laosi suddenly became vigilant and said: "Eh, Uncle De, you used to be deaf to what was going on outside the window, why did you ask about the outside world today?"
I've lived in the countryside all my life, and I'm not familiar with that little bit of land and that little thing around me? Isn't this going to the city now? You go out of this door and ask, how many people in this city are not curious about the outside world?"
"That's right!" Yi Laosi was instantly relieved, and said in the same way: "I was also so curious back then, I felt that I had a good talent, and I wanted to have the opportunity to go to the outside world to reveal it, but I didn't think that I followed the people above to 'escort Tianjiao students' out that year, only to know that I was an authentic toad at the bottom of the well!"
Hanzhang saw the light in the eyes of the old man and said with a smile: "Since you have seen and heard it with your own eyes, what kind of outside world is it like according to you?
Yi Laosi took a sip of wine, shook his head and smiled:
"I really can't say this, if I want to describe it reluctantly, there are only two words - 'gorgeous'!"
"Brilliant?"
"Yes, there are high-level spiritual weapons everywhere that I have never seen before, and there are high-level spells flashing everywhere that I have never seen before, and even the crowd is flying around, and the magic is different...... If we people here don't see it in person, it's simply unimaginable!
"As for the foothold, it's probably that the higher the cultivation, the more you can gain a foothold!"
"Second order?" Old Detou poured another wine into Yi Laosi's cup.
"Probably, at least you can go and grow second-order spiritual food!"
Lao Detou pondered for a moment and said, "Listening to you say this, this outside world seems to be a good place, but it doesn't seem to be a good place!"
"Hehe," Yi Laosi said with a smile: "Uncle De, a good place is a good place, but it's not suitable for you and me!"
"That's to the point, but like you said, if the situation is forced to the head, if it's suitable or not, you don't have to try it!"
"That's what it means!" Yi Laosi probably thought of the difficulty of his cultivation and the difficulty of moving forward, and sighed:
"Uncle De, after so many years, you are the only one who can talk to my heart, you said that if you hadn't wasted your cultivation back then, maybe you would have become the first second-order person in the land at this time!"
"Are you kidding! At my age, I still achieved the second order at this time?"
"I'm really not joking, if you don't waste your cultivation, if your cultivation is high, your lifespan will naturally increase, what is this age?"
The old man shook his head and smiled: "You!
"No, no, this little bit of wine is nothing, the main thing is to relax here Uncle De, and finally you don't have to think about cultivation all the time, and there are more words. ”
"Not much, not much, as the saying goes, when you meet your old acquaintance in a foreign land, isn't this the scene you are talking about? By the way, the last time I took Hanzhang to naturalize, I heard Naxue say, what kind of spiritual world should have a big movement, but there is such a thing?"
"Haha, I didn't expect this news to reach the ears of Uncle De, but there is indeed such a thing going on, and I heard people who have gone out recently come back and say:
'There are rumors of noses and eyes outside', saying that there is a Venerable with some high cultivation, and what kind of treasure can lead the spiritual world to start a new process.
"If this news is true, it is not far before the time for a second-order cultivator to appear in our Qi Realm!"
"I see! I wonder if it has something to do with the enchantment of the land!"
......
That night, after Yi Laosi left, Hanzhang saw that Lao Detou took out his copper plates again.
He played with a solemn expression, and then frowned and fell into deep thought.
Before going to bed, he asked Hanzhang:
"Daughter, do you think it's okay for us to go to the outside world to live?"
Hanzhang was stunned in his heart, and shouted:
Not good!
Not good at all!
But the deeper she feels about the old man, the more she can't look at it easily!
In his heart, there is a resolute force that guides him in the direction he seeks!
Hanzhang bit his lip, and finally replied, "I don't know!"
"Yes, Dad doesn't know, ......back then," the old man was silent for a while, and then said, "If you don't try, how can you know if there is a way out?"
Back then?
Could it be that he had the idea of going to the outside world many years ago, but he was frustrated?
But according to Hanzhang's understanding and his conversation with Yi Laosi, this possibility is unlikely.
So, the "back then" that can make the old man hesitate to even "abandon his ancestors" is afraid that it is not a simple "back then"?
In the next two days, every time Hanzhang came back from school, he saw the old man grinding the "heirloom" of the Yu family in his hands, looking at the northwest in a daze!
His eyes are dark and complicated!
On the third day, as soon as Hanzhang got out of school, he saw the old man standing at the door smiling.
He said: "Let's go, let's ask you Fourth Brother Yi to handle the charter!"
As he spoke, he took Hanzhang's hand and walked straight to the yamen of the Lingshu Mansion.
Hanzhang looked at the sky, and then looked at the old man who was hurrying in front of him, and secretly thought: This is about to be the time of the next office, and I don't know if I can stop people in the past!
The place where they lived was not far from the Yamen of the Lingshu Mansion, and they took a hearse when they went out, but they arrived at the place in half an hour.
Hanzhang followed Lao Detou in, and saw that the spiritual clergy who were supposed to be preparing for the next office at this point were gathered in a heap, shouting one by one:
"What does this notice mean?"
"What do you mean by 'transferring students and cultivators with good spiritual skills to Jinyang'?"
"Yes, there is no standard, there is no measurement, how to measure a person's spiritual level, is it good?"
"How can you make such a strange report these years?"
"Eh, do you think you're going to bring us with you because of the advancement of the spiritual civilization in the outside world, as the rumors say?"
"This ...... It's possible!"
"Yes, didn't you provide a fee last time for us to have a free spiritual examination?"
"It would be great if that was the case! maybe all of us would be able to advance to the second order cultivation soon!"
"Hehe, I think you guys should not be busy talking about those far away, it is serious to chew this report clearly first. ”
"Let me say, can we just do what is written in the circular? Anyway, the cost and everything will be borne by the outside world!"
"Then what do you mean by having a good level of spiritual art?"
