Chapter 5 Choices
The group of three returned to the stone house, and a middle-aged man in black clothes seemed to be standing at the door of Uncle's house for a long time, pacing back and forth impatiently, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Uncle.
When the middle-aged man saw Wu Keqian, he immediately greeted him, with a gloomy face, and admonished: "You kid, I haven't seen anyone for a long time, and I don't know where I've gone, so I've been waiting for a long time." Big brother asked me to ask you, are you sure to break through to the late stage of qi induction at the end of the year? If not, go back and have a baby, don't blame Uncle I scold you for being ruthless, the boss is not small, the baby is not born, and the cultivation can't go up, you still want to stay here for a lifetime!"
Wu Keqian was viciously reprimanded by the man in his forties in front of him, but he was not angry, a smile appeared on his face, and then he saluted the man: "Sixth uncle, I haven't seen you for many years! As for the birth of a baby, let's talk about it later. ”
"Well, it's good to break through. Seeing that Wu Keqian could make a promise, the sixth uncle was relieved at the moment, and nodded, a little relieved.
"Huh" The sixth uncle glanced at his eyes, and saw the tiger's head and tiger brain behind Zhang Lan, pink and tender like a little doll about to drip water, Wu Ziling, and smiled at Wu Keqian and Zhang Lan: "What a cute little doll, whose child?"
Uncle Wu pulled Wu Ziling to his side and said to the sixth uncle Wu Wenguang: "His name is Wu Ziling, although he is also surnamed Wu, but he is not from my Wu family. I picked up this child in the back mountain, he was in a coma at the time, so I took him home to take care of him, Ah Lan was bored at home, so I just raised him as a son, Uncle Six doesn't mind, right?"
"Okay, don't mind, haha, very good, I'm a lot relieved to have this cute doll with you now. A soft white light came out of the sixth uncle's palm, and Wu Ziling's body seemed to be coated with a layer of white light, floating off the ground uncontrollably and flying towards the sixth uncle.
He never thought that this scene would occur, even if Uncle broke the tree with one palm, he at least felt that this was still a real person, or a martial arts master.
But at this moment, Uncle Six's behavior seems to have gone beyond the scope of 'manpower' and entered a world unknown to a person.
When Wu Ziling was shocked by this shocking method, there was an exclamation from the sixth uncle in his ears, which seemed to be more shocked than Wu Ziling.
"Hey, he's eight years old, why doesn't he have any spiritual power at all, is his qualification already so bad that no one has ever done it before?"
Wu Wenguang looked at Wu Ziling, who had fallen in front of him, and muttered, but he found out that something was wrong with Wu Ziling in a blink of an eye: "No, this kid is naturally spiritual and extraordinary, he should be a good seedling, but it's a pity that he hasn't cultivated so far, hey, it's a pity." He shook his head slightly and sighed, he felt that it was shameful and wasteful for a good seedling to miss the best period like this.
Wu Ziling looked at the sixth uncle for a while, and sighed for a while, and his heart was very strange, could it be that he really couldn't practice? But he didn't want to interject and ask.
Instead, Wu Keqian stepped forward and asked, "Since Sixth Uncle said that Ziling is a good seedling, I think even if he starts cultivating now, it won't have much impact." ”
"That's what you said, but do you know that the better the talent and qualification, the younger the cultivation, the better. Because after almost everyone is born, there is an innate aura in their body. With the passage of time, this innate aura will gradually wear off due to certain factors, and after the age of seven, it is almost gone.
Of course, if you can refine this innate aura at the fastest speed, it will have infinite benefits for the monks in the qi induction period.
With this innate aura, the spiritual power in the body is deep and stable, not to mention, and there is no period of weakness after the breakthrough, coupled with the superior qualifications, you can enter the foundation building period at the speed of the ten years old, in other words, you can save more than ten years or so.
And 'building the foundation' means to build the foundation of the immortal avenue, which is the beginning of the separation of immortals. The sixth uncle patiently explained, he couldn't help sighing as he spoke, but he didn't know who he was sighing for.
Wu Ziling lowered his head and muttered, "The beginning of the separation of immortals and mortals...... Is there really one?"
After listening to the explanation of the sixth uncle, Wu Keqian's heart was even more entangled than Wu Ziling, it turned out that an innate aura could save twenty years, and he couldn't accept such a result at all.
Wu Keqian's face was ugly, and he asked angrily, "Sixth Uncle, why is it so heavy......
"Hmph, do you want to say why don't you know? Why didn't anyone tell you? Let me ask you, after so many years, do you still remember what happened when you were a child?" Wu Wenguang waved his hand, and a cold snort directly interrupted Wu Keqian's inquiry, and there was a lot of hatred in his words.
"Most of them don't remember, but I remember that I often played with Ah Lan at that time......" Wu Keqian said more and more quietly......
"It's good to know, remember that it was when you were three years old, you had a serious illness, and it took a year to get better. Later, the eldest brother wanted you to refine the innate aura quickly, but you were sneaky and slippery, and you didn't want to make progress. When you were five years old, you were tired of being with Xiaolan all day long, no matter how we persuaded us, you were crying and making trouble, and the eldest brother wanted to slap you at that time, or your mother persuaded you again and again, and your father let you go.
Since then, I have been messing around with you, and I have never cared about you again, and after the age of seven, after the innate aura disappeared, this matter has never been mentioned again. Your qualifications are not good, and if you lose that innate aura, hmph, you will be what you are now......" At this moment, the sixth uncle frowned coldly, and the more he said, the more angry he became, and he flicked his robe.
"......" said this, and Wu Keqian only had to secretly regret and be annoyed.
"That's it, it's happened, let him go in the past!" Looking at Wu Keqian's remorseful expression, the sixth uncle sighed again.
He lowered his head and said to Wu Ziling: "Ziling, do you want to have these skills like me?"
Wu Ziling subconsciously replied: "I think"
The sixth uncle cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Okay, you also know that Wu Keqian and Zhang Lan have no children and no daughters under their knees, and your life is saved by them, supplemented by many days of careful care, treat you like a parent."
Now I give you a chance that if you are willing to honor them as fathers and mothers, and swear to treat them as paternity for the rest of your life, no matter how high your achievements may be in the future, or how ordinary you will be, and you will never break the vows you have made today.
In this way, I can give you a chance to take the test. If you pass the test, you will have the opportunity to step into the path of cultivation; if you fail to pass the test, you will not be able to enter this path, do you understand? I think you are also a loyal and kind person, and you don't have to do some opportunistic things. How to behave, be cautious. ”
After listening to this, Wu Ziling still had a little hesitation in his heart. Since the death of his parents, except for his grandfather and Tian Bo, after coming to this place, it is Uncle Wu and Aunt Lan who have treated him best, which is undoubtedly and understandable.
But he had never worshiped his father-in-law, and this was the first time in this situation, so he was a little nervous and unaccustomed...... And what Wu Wenguang said did not conform to his thoughts.
Wu Ziling looked at Wu Wenguang and replied, "As Wu Lao said, I can't answer." ”
Wu Wenguang raised his eyebrows, and a look of annoyance emerged, secretly ignorant and ungrateful.
Wu Keqian and Zhang Lan were also stunned, and glanced at each other, revealing nervous looks. They like Wu Ziling very much from the bottom of their hearts, if Wu Ziling disagrees, although it is hot to shave his head, he will not be reluctant.
The key is that it will break the face of the sixth uncle, although the sixth uncle is not a person who cares, but he will not give Wu Ziling a good look.
Wu Ziling knew that they might have misunderstood themselves, so he had to say slowly like pouring beans into a bamboo tube: "Ziling has not felt family affection for two years since his parents died, except for his grandfather, and Uncle Wu and Aunt Lan not only saved my life, but also treated me like a parent, and I should treat them as a parent-child courtesy." But what you said, if I agree, it will become, I respect Uncle Wu and Aunt Lan as my father-in-law and mother-in-law for the sake of the cultivation skills you said. That's not what I intended, so I can't answer that.
If I had to choose, I would rather be the righteous son of Uncle Wu and Aunt Lan, and then I would leave this place, and if I have achieved something in the future, I will come back and serve my father-in-law; ”
