Volume 1 The First Arrival in Kyushu Chapter 12 Recommendation

"I would like to recommend someone to take the year-end mountain gate test. Yuanming Dao Chang spoke.

"Recommend?!" Song Yu subconsciously repeated a sentence as if he wasn't sure what he heard, and then asked, "Who does Senior Brother want to recommend to take the test?"

"It's him!" Yuanming Daoist pointed to Ye Cang behind him and said, "Ye boy, come here, didn't you say that you want to worship the Qingye Temple? I will give you this recommendation opportunity this year." ”

Hearing the words of the Yuanming Daoist, Ye Cang was slightly stunned, he didn't seem to have said that he wanted to worship the Qingye Temple.

And Song Yu looked in the direction of Yuanming Dao's finger, and saw Ye Cang's childish young face, with a strange look in his eyes.

According to the rules of the Aoba Temple, the pharmacist who hands in the herbs at the end of the year and completes the prescribed tasks does have the opportunity to recommend a child of the appropriate age to enter the Aoba Temple. But Yuanming has always had a strange temper and a very loose personality, since the accident more than ten years ago, he was in charge of guarding the medicine garden, and he has never recommended anyone to participate in the year-end mountain gate test for eighteen years. Even if some people from the family came to the door and sent a generous gift to ask the Yuanming Daoist to recommend him, the Yuanming Daoist didn't pay much attention to it.

However, today, Daoist Yuanming suddenly wanted to recommend a child to participate in the year-end mountain gate test, and if people familiar with it knew about it, they would be very surprised. And these, if Yuanming Dao Elder doesn't say it, Ye Cang won't know.

"According to the rules of the sect, Senior Brother does have a recommendation quota, and I will report this matter to Master Qingsang. After Song Yu was surprised, he glanced at Ye Cang strangely, and then said, "If Senior Brother has nothing else to do, Senior Brother will leave." ”

"Then thank you junior brother, junior brother walks slowly, senior brother will not send it. Hearing Song Yu's answer, Daoist Yuanming finally showed a smile and politely saw him off.

At this time, the four disciples behind Song Yu stepped forward to lift the herbs, and then followed closely behind Song Yu and walked along the way they came to the outside of the medicine garden.

"Dao Chief, what's the matter with the Mountain Gate Test?" When the figures of Song Yu and the others completely disappeared from sight, Ye Cang raised his head suspiciously, and asked Dao Chang Yuanming.

"What's going on, hmph, stinky boy, I've made an exception for you this time, don't disgrace me when the time comes. Hearing Ye Cang's inquiry, Daoist Yuanming pursed his lips, "The so-called year-end mountain gate test is a form of our Qingye Temple accepting disciples every year, hoping to recruit some disciples who have spiritual roots and meet their age to enter the temple. This time of year is a good opportunity for disciples of families in nearby counties to get started, and as a pharmacist at the Kannai Medicine Garden, as long as I complete the list of medicinal materials at the end of the year, I have a qualification to recommend school-age children to get started. ”

Speaking of this, Yuanming Daoist glanced at Ye Cang, which seemed to mean that you kid owe me a lot of favors this time.

Seeing that Ye Cang seemed to show an excited expression, Yuanming Dao Chang then added, "But don't be careless because of this, I don't know if you are a spiritual root person yet, and there will be some tests in the view." Some of the little ones have been participating in the sect test since they were eight years old, and they didn't barely reach the entry level until they were twelve years old. The mountain gate test mainly tests the spiritual root qualifications, and secondly, it will also look at the basic kung fu, comprehension ability, and even some pharmacological knowledge will sometimes be examined. I see that your kid is quite talented in medicine, so I will be a favor and recommend you. ”

In fact, after half a year of contact, Yuanming Daoist still attaches great importance to Ye Cang.

After Ye Cang's injury was basically healed, he insisted on practicing Ye's Tai Chi every day, and he never stopped for half a year. Most of the time the path of cultivation is boring and tedious, and only those who can endure loneliness and have a firm mind can achieve something. Ye Cang showed a different heart from his peers at a young age, and he was very savvy in medicine, which made Yuanming Daoist like it from the bottom of his heart.

Moreover, Yuanming Dao Chang also faintly saw that there was something extraordinary about Ye Cang's boxing practice, although it was still not out of the martial arts category of mortal martial arts, but it already faintly contained a trace of "Dao" flavor. Recently, Ye Cang's breathing and breathing have changed significantly, and Daoist Yuanming clearly saw it in his eyes, but he didn't point it out.

Ye Cang heard the explanation of the Yuanming Daoist, and understood that he had encountered a good opportunity, and he was moved from the bottom of his heart by what the Yuanming Daoist did, although this middle-aged Taoist priest with a dissolute appearance was a little sloppy, but he was still very good.

"Another reminder to you, the most basic requirement for taking the entrance test is to achieve the cultivation of the acquired double, I think your current strength is at most the acquired one, and you must reach the acquired triple within a month to ensure that you are selected. ”

"The day after tomorrow, what kind of strength is that?" Ye Cang asked puzzled.

"You kid doesn't even know what kind of strength the day after tomorrow is?!" Hearing Ye Cang's almost idiotic question, Daoist Yuanming glanced at Ye Cang as if he had seen an alien creature.

"Perhaps, it is estimated that you are too young, and the elders in the family have not explained to you the division of cultivators' realms. Cultivators with spiritual roots can sense the aura of heaven and earth and store it in the body according to the strength of their cultivation, which can be divided into acquired, congenital, Danyuan realm, Yuan Shen realm, refining void realm, and Xuantian realm. After that, it is to gather true qi, condense into Danyuan, enter the Danyuan realm, and after the Danyuan grows stronger, you can condense into the Yuanshen and enter the Yuanshen realm, and then the realm after that is basically the cultivation of the legendary super great sect monks. The legend of the ancestor of the Qingye Guankai School is the Great Perfection of the Yuan Shen Realm, and it is still one step away from the return of the Yuan Shen to the void and entering the Refining Void Realm. ”

"Then what kind of strength is the day after tomorrow?" After listening to the introduction of the Yuanming Dao Leader, Ye Cang was very magical about the cultivation realm division of this world, and asked again.

"The day after tomorrow is nothing, really to say what is the strength, simply put, it is to have the opportunity to enter the innate nature, the day after tomorrow is divided into nine, the acquired one has the power of one hundred catties with one hand, the acquired two with one hand has the power of two hundred catties, and so on, the acquired triple is to have the power of three hundred catties with one hand, and the acquired consummation has at least one hand with the power of a thousand catties, so as to have the foundation of advanced innate nature. The mountain gate test of Aoba Temple is relatively simple, and you can participate as long as you reach the acquired triple. So then, you're going to work on it yourself. Daoist Yuanming explained angrily.

"The day after tomorrow is threefold?" Ye Cang muttered in a low voice. I haven't really tried my strength since I came into this world. However, a boy less than twelve years old can lift a weight of 300 catties with one hand, and the strength of those hands is at least 600 catties. In the previous life, an adult with 500 catties of strength can definitely be called a strong man, but in the Kyushu Continent, he can be regarded as an acquired martial artist at most.

Now there is still a month to go before the mountain gate test at the end of the year, reaching three hundred catties with one hand in a month's time, Ye Cang feels a kind of powerlessness for the first time after coming to this world.

"But you kid don't have to worry, I will give you three medicinal baths this month, which can improve your body functions and increase your strength in a short period of time, but how much effect you can achieve depends on your personal physique. In addition, I would like to remind you that the process of washing your body in these three medicated baths is not so comfortable, and it can be said that each time it is more difficult than the last, so you had better prepare first. As if seeing Ye Cang's embarrassment, Yuanming Dao Chang smiled and comforted.

"Take a break today, and starting tomorrow, I will personally teach you exercises, and tomorrow I will take the first medicinal bath to wash your body. Before Ye Cang came back to his senses, Daoist Yuanming turned around and walked in the direction of the grass house, and a word floated before leaving.

"Three hundred pounds on one hand? It sounds difficult, but I'll do it. Looking at the back of Yuanming Dao Chang leaving, Ye Cang clenched his fists, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and muttered.
