Volume 2 Chapter 7 The Selection of the Ancient Star (II)
It was already ten o'clock, Dao Shan took Gu Ruitian and Yu Susu and the others to stand in front of the giant tree with diamond-shaped leaves in the courtyard, and when Gu Xing arrived, he would have to conduct a qualification test and selection on whether he could enter the ancient Dao Gate.
Some people may ask why only the children of the four major families and the City Lord's Mansion are eligible to enter the test ranks of the Ancient Dao Gate.
First, in general, the biggest power in the winding city is the city lord's mansion, and the other forces are all attached to the four major families, almost no one's child can be selected by the city lord's mansion at the age of two or be valued by the four major families and sent into the main force as an important training object, of course, there are still many people who almost don't know the existence of the ancient Daomen, based on the ancient Daomen has a deep heritage and history in the spirit world, but this is limited to the spirit world.
There are also many children in the world who are talented, that's for sure, but their choice is generally other sects or forces, or families.
Second, the disciples of the ancient Daomen are not only talented, but also have a good heart, in short, if they are the elite of the elite, the age is only limited to two years old, why is it limited to two years old, because at this time, the child is truly enlightened both physically and mentally, and this time is also the time when he begins to have his own independent consciousness and personality, and it is also the time when there are more independent behaviors, and why the children in the top forces can be selected, it is because they are in a relatively peaceful and loving process when they are young, unlike children from poor families, who may have to experience all kinds of bad things at the age of two, which will form an important unstable factor for the child's mind。
Third: With the qualifications to run for election, you may not be able to pass the test, and the final choice can be taught to your hands.
Fourth: Why choose the time when yin and yang meet, this is to divide the gender, if it is a woman, it is generally at noon, because at that time the yang qi descends and the yin qi rises, and the ancient star is a boy, so choose the time when the yin qi descends and the yang qi rises.
The evening breeze blew, getting stronger and stronger, and the giant trees in front of me made a 'rustling' sound, and the swaying between the leaves became louder and louder.
A white light lit up, and everyone's faces began to change from the past, the one with the highest talent in the past was the son of Gemu Kunxin, and that was the second gate that went to the front yard, there was no such formation, but this place leading to the third gate had never been experienced.
The white light became brighter and brighter, and the diamond-shaped leaves of the giant tree were pushed away, like a glowing master's door, and the white light came out from inside, looking more like another world.
"Let's go!" said to the crowd behind him, stepping in.
Everyone disappeared in place, and when they appeared, they had arrived at a completely different place from before, this was not a mountain, nor could they see the waterfall that fell from the sky, nor did they have a house, some were just a huge martial arts training ground, and the end was like a sacrificial platform, surrounded by bright flames, and the warm light calmed the tense atmosphere of everyone.
"This is the third gate?" asked Walkman, looking at the scene in front of him.
"This is the third test bench, and the master didn't open the third door, so he can only go here!" said Dao Mu with a smile.
"Daoshan, there's nothing special here?" Yu Susu looked at the martial arts training ground and asked.
"Naturally, it's just that you think the Ancient Dao Gate is mysterious! if you haunt this place often, you won't think it's very good!" said Dao Mu with a laugh.
"But why isn't it as big as the second gate's sacrificial platform, and it still looks like it's covered with dust, as if it's been useless for a long time?" Ling Haotian couldn't help but ask as he looked at the scene in front of him.
"Before the ancient star, there was no one's blood in the entire winding city that could pass here, and Xing'er's talent seemed to be demonic enough to reach this layer!" To be honest, Dao Mu didn't know why it was this layer, because among the first three gates, only this gate had never been reached.
"Prepare, it's almost time!" a calm, peaceful voice with endless majesty and magic suddenly reached everyone's ears.
Everyone searched for prestige, but they never saw a figure.
"Dao Mu greets the master!" Hearing the voice, Dao Mu shouted respectfully.
"Well, you all retreat first! This third gate test is only for this kid alone, if you think you have enough strength to resist the invasion of this Dao Gate, I have no opinion!"
It seems to be in a fairyland on earth, a bright moon is behind him, an old man in white clothes, white hair and white beard, looking like a fairy wind and bones, is sitting on a stone bench, not far away is the hanging waterfall, Daoshan is standing beside the old man.
"Master, according to the qualifications of this little guy, he can enter our Ancient Dao Sect completely! Why do you have to do this extra thing?" Dao Shan asked.
"You've lived for more than ninety years, and you've lived for nothing?" the old man asked.
"Does the master still have to do that kind of boring test to test this child's heart or something?" Daoshan didn't believe it, it was a kind of test that was generally for people in the first and second realms.
"A two-year-old child is just beginning to have a heart, and are those tests useful?" said the old man in a deep voice.
"Why is the master still?" Dao Shan was really puzzled, the kid's physique and qualifications were good, he was definitely superior, Dao Shan believed that Gu Xing was a person with a pupil body, but he didn't know which type.
"It's really a lot of things, this time it's for this little kid to choose? If he chooses us, then I'll teach you after all, if his choice is not ours, then it proves that there is no fate, and it can only be up to him to create!" the old man really didn't want to bother anymore, and said.
"He chooses, he's just a two-year-old child, can he choose by himself?" Daoshan was a little anxious, inexplicably anxious.
"Confused, the ancient Dao Gate, the Ancient Dao Gate, the cultivation is always the Dao, what is the biggest, the Heavenly Dao, so it is precisely because he is two years old, it is precisely because he began to have independent behavior that he will be allowed to choose, and there is too much providence in his choice!" the old man was anxious, looked at this disciple and said.
Think about it, too, the Tao is nothing more than shun, the way of heaven, the will of heaven, then the nature can be like the ancient road; going against the road is called the great rebellion, and the reverse is no way, and the person who is naturally abandoned by the way of heaven will not be able to get the ancient way. Daoshan fell into some kind of realm again.
The old man ignored the Dao Mountain in the epiphany, and the void clicked twice, and a huge mirror appeared in front of him, which was Gu Ruitian and the others.
The old man turned to look at a huge eight-monster map on the ground behind him, stroked his beard, pointed at the gossip map, and shouted, "Get up!"
A huge gossip diagram formed by spiritual power hangs in the air, with various colors circulating on it, yin and yang appear, followed by the nine palaces.
"Let's get out of the way! Xing'er's test is about to begin!" Daoshan said to the crowd.
When the old man hung up the gossip diagram, Gu Xing was already in the gossip diagram, one after another spiritual power rose, turning into a pillar of light to separate everyone from a distance, the spiritual power pillar of light revealed a very soft aura, it didn't seem to have any lethality, but everyone present was not an ordinary person, the people in charge of the four major families, the strength was in the realm of the Great Emperor's spiritual realm, how could they not see that those were all formed by the Dao, what is the Dao, the will of the Dao, said that the big represents heaven and earth, and the small is also the end of the rules, which is the source of the creation of zào rules, and that kind of power is almost the purest and thickest power in heaven and earth。
The pillar of light rotated around the Bagua Array, slowly forming a circular wall, and Gu Ruitian and the others could not see the Gu Xing inside.
At this time, Gu Xing suddenly found that he was separated from his parents, and the light began to appear around him, and the child's heart was sluggish for a while, and then he laughed again.
"Isn't it funny, little one, since you want to laugh, let's start with the good and see if you can make the right choice in the end?" the old man's kind face smiled like a fox.
On the wall formed by the pillar of light, a picture suddenly appeared, a naked baby lying on a bed, sleeping beautifully, the sun was like an autumn day, very warm, shining on the baby's body, the baby was closing his eyes, no crying, only the sound of peaceful breathing.
"Well, how can there be a little brother?" Gu Xing saw that the baby in the picture was sleeping soundly, and he didn't dare to make any movement, for fear of waking the baby.
Looking at the sleeping baby, Gu Xing was still staring at the big black and white eyes at first, but as time went by, following the sound of the baby's breathing in the picture, Gu Xing actually fell asleep.
"Same origin?" the old man was shocked, but what did he mean until that baby?
"Giggle!" the baby suddenly laughed, constantly kicking his little feet on the bed, waving his hands, from the baby's laughter, you will hear that the world seems to be beautiful, like spring, full of vitality, full of loveliness of life.
Gu Xing woke up, and when he saw the appearance of the baby in the picture, he was also amused.
"Is it really the same origin?" The old man saw Gu Xing's smile, and when he heard Gu Xing's laughter, it was the same as the meaning expressed by the baby in the picture, there were signs of purity and life, and his heart was even more shocked.
"The world is not all beautiful, let me see how long your beauty lasts!" said the old man, pointing his finger again.
The picture on the wall turns, and the baby's laughter stops!
"Wow!" A cry, one moment full of endless grievances, but I don't know why I cried, but the cry seemed to touch the most painful wound in my heart, and I felt that the cry was unwilling, and I felt remorse. But every sound can make people's hearts tremble, because they feel distressed.
Gu Xing looked at this picture and didn't cry, just walked to the wall, touched the baby's face in the picture, and helped him wipe away his tears.
"Isn't it the same origin!" the old man hesitated, and couldn't help frowning when he saw Gu Xing's movements.
"Try again!tell me your choice!" thought to himself, pointing at the Bagua Array again.
The picture turns, like a movie, flashing rapidly, the baby grows slowly, crazy cultivation, constantly contact people and things, sometimes rescuing all kinds of people in danger, and sometimes crazy killing, the growing people are constantly changing the clothes on their bodies, but there are only two colors, one is white, the other is black.
When the picture is dressed in black, the sky is always dim and oppressive, blood is flying all over the sky, crying, and resentment, but the person in black looks indifferently, without sympathy, without sadness, without the slightest expression.
When the people in the picture are dressed in white, the sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, and everywhere they pass is full of vitality and upward life.
Gu Xing's expression changed from solemn to relieved, and then from relieved to dazed, and after being dazed, he didn't make any movements, and always stood calmly inside the Daoyi Gate, looking at the picture on the wall constantly flickering.
The picture is still, two grown up people appear in the picture, their appearance is exactly the same, but the temperament that comes out of the table is very different, one is better than snow in white, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and the other is cold in black, which makes people daunted, all kinds of depression and sadness.
Gu Xing slowly walked forward, looking at the two people in the picture, stunned.
"Sue me, what will you choose?" the old man smiled, looking at the hesitant look of the little guy in the array.
Time passed, Gu Xing still just looked at the two of them, maybe it was a little long, his eyes were a little tired, and he fainted.
"Don't you choose both? or don't you have anything to do with the Tao?" the old man's eyes narrowed into a line.
