When Wang Ling opened his eyes again, he found himself lying on the bed, his whole body, except that his head was accidentally wrapped in gauze, and he vaguely smelled the pungent smell of medicine emanating from his body, the surrounding environment was very unfamiliar, and there was a slight sound of birds and insects chirping in his ears, and through the window, he saw the moonlight splashing on the floor of the house through the branches and leaves, and it was confirmed that it was late at night.

Through the scenery outside the window, he deduced that this place was not in Qingzhou City, probably in a certain mountain.

"Wake up."

Wang Ling heard the sound and saw that the man in the iron mask who had rescued him was sitting at the table with his back to him, as if he was fiddling with something on the table, rustling, as if he was polishing something.

"Yes...... You saved me? ”

The man silently did not answer, not because he was ashamed to speak, but because he felt that answering such a question and saying a word was nonsense.

"I ...... Excessive lethargy...... Long time? ”

"If you count today, it's already the seventh day."

Have you been in a coma for so long······? Wang Ling didn't expect that he slept for seven days.

"You...... Who are you? And why...... Want to save me? Do you know ...... Meet Sun Qihao? At this time, he was still in a weak state, and he was weak when he spoke.

The man stopped what he was doing, got up and walked to the window, holding a stone bowl in his hand, he handed the bowl to Wang Ling, and said indifferently: "Eat this bowl of medicine first, the injury will heal quickly." ”

Wang Ling wanted to sit up straight and pick it up with his hands, but he was just about to stand up, and before he could move, there was a tearing pain all over his body, he gritted his teeth and endured it, and finally propped himself up and leaned on the bed frame.

He looked into the bowl, and there were several colors of medicinal powder mixed in it, black, white, red, yellow, green, miscellaneous, and then glanced at the man suspiciously, this medicine is for healing?

The man smiled disdainfully: "The five tendons are scattered, it has a miraculous effect on internal and external injuries, you can get better faster after eating, and I won't play a trick with a hairy boy who poisons him." ”

Wang Ling hesitated for a moment, put his mouth to the edge of the stone bowl, his two arms couldn't be lifted anyway, he was happy to be served, the man was not annoyed when he saw this, and gently poured the medicinal powder into Wang Ling's mouth.

The "cough cough cough ......" powder was too dry to swallow, and I was almost choked with tears because I didn't make psychological preparations.

The man poured another bowl of tea and helped him smooth it out, and then swallowed the powder wrapped in his mouth.

Wang Ling had the residual medicinal powder hanging on the corner of his mouth, he could now clearly feel that his strength was recovering, and at the same time he was surprised that the five tendons were scattered, he opened his mouth and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"You seem to have a lot of questions, why don't you ask a question, I ask a question, we exchange answers with each other, what do you think?"

Wang Ling nodded, this was a surefire deal for him, except for the truth that he had come to this world, there was almost nothing of value to share, but there were a few answers that he couldn't wait to know.

"Your identity?" Wang Ling asked the first question first.

The man was silent for a moment, and said coldly: "The leader of the guilty long song, the third deacon of the Heavenly Decree, code name Rouzhao." ”

He didn't explain his other identity, after all, in his opinion, it was just to hide the disguise he had made, Sun Qihao had already returned Rouzhao's Heavenly Decree to him, and the moment he got the token, it meant that the man got back the identity that really belonged to him.

Really! Wang Ling's heart jumped suddenly, although he had already guessed that this person was a member of the guilty Changge, but he didn't expect it to be one of the top ten commanders, he was secretly happy in his heart, after all, he had just beaten that bullshit world, offended Dongchuan Houfu, and was in urgent need of a powerful backer right now.

The man saw through Wang Ling's thoughts at a glance, and immediately poured cold water on him: "I know what you are thinking, Dongchuan Hou has a transcendent status, not to mention that the guilty Changge has declined three years ago, even if it doesn't, Dongchuan Hou is not something that I can compete with as a commander, in the eyes of the Jianghu people, the leader of the guilty Changge is a character, but in the court, he is not even a fart." ”

"But ......"

Wang Linggang was a little disappointed, and then heard the man's words change: "Although I can't directly help you meet Dongchuan Hou, if there is any other need, I will take action." ”

This is not a vague statement, Wang Ling instantly understood, after all, this is a festival between him and Dongchuan Hou Shizi, and he must solve it himself, but if one of the links needs help, the other party is fully willing to help him, such as being a thug or a bodyguard.

"It's my turn, tell me where you came from."

Wang Ling already had a draft in his heart, and moved out the original set of rhetoric against Cao Shuangxu, seeing that the other party did not have suspicions, Wang Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked himself the second question: "What is the Heavenly Decree?" ”

The man said directly: "Change the question." ”

Wang Ling raised his eyebrows, realizing that this was a secret that could not be disclosed, and he was not entangled, so he simply changed the question: "Is it the old grandson who asked you to protect me?" ”

After a moment of silence, the man spoke: "There is no protection, my father-in-law only said to let me look at you." ”

Stepfather???

Wang Ling looked surprised, his eyes wandered up and down the other party's body, and he looked quite surprised.

I haven't heard that the old grandson has a righteous son.

The man ignored the meaning of the royal decree and asked to himself, "How did you and my father-in-law meet?" ”

"He picked it up from the river. What about you? ”

"Same."

Wang Ling asked a little uncertainly, "It's also by the river...... Picked up? ”

"Hmmm......"

Wang Ling was a little speechless, and said in his heart, does that bad old man have a habit of going to the river to pick up "corpses"?

The man asked, "Do you know what's so special about you?" ”

Wang Ling shook his head and asked, "Do you know?" ”

He was almost ninety percent sure that the strange changes in this body came from Lao Sun Tou, and since this person was Lao Sun Tou's righteous son, he must know something.

The man was noncommittal, just stared at Wang Ling quietly, his eyes showed sadness, pain, anger, jealousy and desolation, which made Wang Ling feel a little stunned, he had never seen such complex emotions, and he didn't understand why this man was like this.

The man also realized his gaffe, quickly gathered his emotions, took a deep breath and said, "How much do you know about cultivation?" ”

Wang Ling replied truthfully: "At first, I didn't know anything about it, but a few days ago, a colleague told me something, and I didn't say too much, I only know that there are two ways of cultivation, martial arts and qi refining, there are nine grades, martial arts nine grades, I only know the names of nine grades to four grades, as for what the first three grades are called, the colleague didn't say it, I guess he doesn't know, as for qi refining, he also only knows the name of the grade." ”

Hearing Wang Ling's answer, the man didn't seem surprised, but patiently explained: "The third grade is called the incarnation realm, the second grade is the Hedao realm, as for the first-grade martial artist, people call it the saint realm, the martial saint, except for the first grade, the main points of the rest of the grades, let's talk about it another day, otherwise I won't be able to finish it tomorrow morning." ”

Wang Ling asked eagerly: "But I obviously have never practiced martial arts, and I don't know how to refine qi, where did this body cultivation come from?" ”

He used to think that the reason why he was able to fight the dozen or so guards of Cao Mansion alone was able to overwhelm that Zhang Zhanyi, and he relied on the physique and combat experience polished by his own troops, but later Shi Geng told him that there was a cultivation level in this world, and he realized his problem, especially the previous battle, which made Wang Ling even more convinced that he had a force that did not belong to him.

The man squinted at him without emotion: "Naturally, it comes from the father-in-law, shouldn't you have guessed this a long time ago?" Whether it was the Cao Mansion Protector or the little flag officer, it was because of your anger that that caused the leakage of that power, and what really awakened it was your battle with those people not long ago. ”

Wang Ling: "How did he do it?" ”

As the man said, Wang Ling did guess that this must be inseparable from the old grandson, but he just didn't know how he did it without knowing it, and he didn't even notice it.

The man didn't choose to answer directly, but said earnestly: "Whether it is a martial artist or a qi refiner, there are very few people who can obtain the Great Dao, and they are admired by tens of thousands of people, but even so, there is an intractable problem for these great powers. ”

Wang Ling asked appropriately, "What is it?" ”

"Legacy."

"Legacy?" Wang Ling, on the contrary, looked confused, a little confused, inheritance is not a troublesome matter, as a giant, naturally he has some housekeeping skills, but if he wants to pass on this ability, wouldn't it be okay to accept one hundred and eighty disciples from him?

Through the expression on Wang Ling's face, the man saw his doubts and explained: "Martial arts, exercises, methods, and secret techniques, these can all be taught to disciples, and what really bothers those great powers is not these superficial things, but Dao intentions. ”

"Daoyi?" Wang Ling felt like a repeater and asked, "How can the Dao Meaning be inherited?" ”

"The Tao cannot be inherited in the true sense, but there is a more popular way to impart the truth to the words and deeds of the teacher, so as to influence the disciples, but people's hearts are changeable, and each disciple's mental integrity is different, and the same sentence will have different effects in the ears of different people."

"Therefore, if you want to pass on your Dao meaning perfectly in this way and keep it in the world, it is completely a matter of luck, so those talents should recruit a wide range of disciples, cast a wide net, collect more fish, and choose the best from them, this is the reason."

Wang Ling was stunned and didn't understand why he had to inherit the Dao Yi? Martial arts, unique methods, and secret techniques, as long as these are passed on to the world, isn't it enough?

The man continued: "Later, there was a great ability to be a genius close to the demon, this person has no sect, no background, and stepped into the second grade by himself, but after he stepped into the Tao, he neither opened a sect, nor did he have half a successor, as for why this is so, I think it is related to his Taoism, and he will be alone from beginning to end, but he is such a person, after thinking hard for a hundred years, he really found a way to pass on the Taoist meaning perfectly, called the Tao to turn the world, the Tao of Taoism. ”

"It's a pity that he himself was feathered before he could realize it, and before the oil ran out, the sage gave this law to the people in power of various sects, hoping to pass it on through their hands."

"Is it because he hasn't had time to put it into practice, or is there something wrong with his method itself, and it can't be implemented at all?" Wang Ling asked.

The man shook his head and said: "Once this secret method came out, it caused an uproar among the various sects, people couldn't wait to try, and came to the conclusion that this method can indeed pass on the Dao will, and it does not lose a penny, although it is just an attempt, and it is not completely practiced, but all sects and factions are very sure that this method is feasible, but the conditions are too harsh, unless Shouyuan is approaching, no one wants to do it." ”

"Still on the ground?" As soon as this sentence was asked, Wang Ling regretted it, I don't know how many sages couldn't solve this problem after trying to break their heads, how could there be no limit to the way that the great power finally came up with?

"The conditions are naturally there, you must know that everything in the world is a part of the Heavenly Dao, and at the same time it is limited by the laws of the Heavenly Dao.

At this time, Wang Ling wanted to say to him: Big man, it's not reason, it's physics!

But he didn't dare, so he could only listen to the other party silently.

"Daoyi, although it is personal, but taken from the way of heaven, after death, the body turns into clay, the soul enters reincarnation, and the Dao will return to heaven and earth, this is the normal order."

"But if you want to reproduce your own Dao intention to another person, this is contrary to the laws of heaven and earth, and it is not tolerated by heaven and earth.

"That would be too monotonous." Wang Ling only felt terrible.

If everyone's thoughts are the same, seemingly orderly, but in fact disorderly, human progress needs motivation, and assimilating ideas means losing contradictions, no contradictions, meaning no pressure, and will no longer have the motivation to move forward, and eventually go to decay and perish.

"The so-called like-mindedness does not mean that there are no differences between people, you can try to understand each other, but you can't assimilate, this is the key to those who step into the second grade, it is difficult to solve the Taoist inheritance."

"And that powerful method of turning the world into the world is actually a means to hide from the heavens and seas, and if you want to complete this method, you must meet three conditions."

Wang Ling was curious: "Which three?" ”

"First of all, find a person who is in line with your own Dao, that is, the so-called like-minded, and this person must not be a cultivator, and must not have any cause and effect entanglement with yourself, so as to avoid being detected by the Heavenly Dao."

"In other words, you can't deliberately cultivate such a person, or affect the growth of a child." Wang Ling quickly understood the meaning of the man's words.

"That's right, the reason why that great power failed to complete his inheritance is also related to his Dao will, as for what his Dao intention is, I don't know, I only know that his Dao intention is extremely paranoid, so that he survived until the end of his life, and he couldn't find a suitable candidate."

Hearing this, Wang Ling felt sad for the senior, and spent a lifetime of energy to pursue the goal, but in the end he failed to achieve it, and ended up regretful, how can people not feel embarrassed. At the same time, he felt amazed, what kind of Dao intention can make a person so extreme that he can't find a person of the same kind to death.

Just when Wang Ling secretly sighed, the man continued: "Although the first requirement is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, as long as it takes some time, it is still possible to find like-minded people, and what is really prohibitive are the last two conditions. ”

"The power of the second grade is extraordinary what a person can bear, so you must first disperse your own cultivation, and press the cultivation to the limit that the other party can bear, and if you have poor roots, you even need the caster to disperse all your cultivation, you are now in the seven-grade realm of qi and martial dual cultivation."

Scatter your cultivation?!

Hearing this, Wang Ling couldn't calm down anymore, he was only afraid in his heart, and even felt a little ridiculous, he didn't understand why the old grandson did this, they realized that today, it was less than four months, why should he be worth such a big price for the old man?

For a moment, Wang Ling only hoped that the man in front of him was deceiving himself, but he couldn't find a corresponding reason.

And what the man said next really made Wang Ling unacceptable.

"This technique is not tolerated by heaven and earth, and when it is halfway through, it will be detected by the Heavenly Dao, but at that time, even the Heavenly Dao cannot stop it, so in the dark, the Heavenly Dao will take the initiative to reach an agreement with the caster, and only one of the two can exist, which is the third condition."

"You mean?!" Ignoring the injury, he sat up suddenly, and there was an instantaneous tearing pain all over his body, even if his face was distorted and sweaty in pain, Wang Ling still stared at the other party's eyes.

There was also sadness in the man's eyes: "The caster burns his own yang longevity, completes the last step of the secret method, and the yang longevity obtained by cultivation is still in heaven and earth, and does not enter reincarnation after death, most of the second grades only have five years to live after completing this operation, but the righteous father is different, he is a martial arts qi refining double second grade, and he is restricted far beyond the ordinary second grade......"

"How long does he have left?" Wang Ling's eyes were moist.

The man took a deep breath and sighed, "I don't know, it's probably only about two years left, maybe it's shorter......"

A thunderclap sounded in Wang Ling's heart!

His eyes glazed back against the bedframe, as if a shell had been pulled out of his soul.

At this moment, for the inheritance of a second-grade monk, the first entry threshold is the seven-grade realm, he can't afford to be happy, and his eyes are full of sadness.

Lowering his head, the sloppy and somewhat obscene old figure appeared in his mind, unconsciously recalling the scenes of the past that the two experienced together, I don't understand why he did this, no matter what Ren Wang Ling thinks, he still can't figure it out, what is this for, in the end, they are just strangers who have known each other for less than four months, what reason is it worth that the old man to do this step even if he exhausts his life?

At this moment, the only thing Wang Ling could figure out was the eyes of the man who was guarding beside him looking at him, and after knowing the truth, Wang Ling finally understood why he stared at himself with such complicated eyes when asked about his cultivation.

"What bullshit..... Is it really that important? We...... I've only known each other for a few months, why would it be me...... Did he ask me for my opinion...... Have you asked me? I'm not rare for anything like that......" Wang Ling murmured.

The man said: "I don't know why those great powers are so obsessed with inheriting the Dao Will, and I don't know why the righteous father chose you, I only know that he has high hopes for you, and there must be his reasons for doing so, and what you have to do is to control the power in your body as soon as possible and become a real monk, so as to live up to your righteous father's expectations of you." ”

"......" Wang Ling was silent.

The man frowned, and seeing that Wang Ling still looked like a lost ghost, he got up silently.

"Smack!"

This slap directly tilted Wang Ling's head, blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and his whole state was like he had just been awakened from a nightmare.

"My father-in-law chose you to be his inheritance, not to see your current appearance of a defeated dog, since he chose you, there is no room for maneuver, and now he only has two years left to live, do you want him to regret and die with hatred because of you!"

It was the first time in years that he had such a big mood swing, like an angry lion roaring at his cubs.

The man's words were very effective, and although Wang Ling's eyes were still dim, the feeling of decadence and frustration disappeared.

The two men did not speak to each other, except for the nightingale and the crickets chirping.

After a long time, Wang Lingcai slowly spoke, laughing at himself: "Yes, I do not know what to do, now think about it, he brought me to Qingzhou and arranged for me to enter the street division, and this body cultivation, he has done so much, he must want me to do something." ”

The man's expression under the iron face moved slightly, and he didn't say a word.

Wang Ling raised his head to look at the man, and he laughed miserably: "You will teach me, right?" ”

A hint of imperceptible relief flashed in the man's eyes, but the tone of his voice was still so indifferent: "I will provide everything you need, but the ugly words are ahead, my methods of training people are strict, if you are a seedless, tell me now, I can change to a softer way." ”

"Don't provoke me, just come, when will it start?" Wang Ling smiled bitterly.

"When you're healed, it's set for tomorrow night."

"Tomorrow?" He actually wanted to say, didn't he wait for the injury to heal? Judging from his current injury, I'm afraid it won't get better tomorrow.

The man explained: "The power contained in each meaning is different, and there are also names that belong to them, and you now have two kinds of consciousness in your body, both of which come from him, one of which is called Self-cultivation Dehai, which can accumulate the power of merit and gather into a sea, which can repair your injuries, simple skin and flesh injuries, you only need to sleep one night to heal, what you use to repair your body now is a small part of the merits accumulated by your father-in-law in the past, and most of the rest are dispersed by him in the process of performing the Tao to turn the world, and you need to do more good deeds in the future to fill Dehai." ”

Wang Ling suddenly remembered the strangely repaired broken bone in his left arm, this kind of self-healing ability was unbelievable to him.

"That'...... What about the other? Wang Ling asked.

The man's eyes flickered, and suddenly became extremely serious, and said: "The other is called the immaculate heart, I must explain its importance to you, whether it is a qi refiner or a martial artist, you can comprehend your own meaning when you cultivate to the realm of the five grades, and obtain a magical power from heaven and earth, or control fire and water, or control the wind and thunder, or it may be other, the cultivation after the five grades is the process of evolving the mind into the Tao, and it is also the process of refining the supernatural power. ”

Wang Ling felt that until today, it seemed that he had really pushed open the door of this world, and when he saw the truth behind the door, he didn't dare to make a little noise, and listened carefully, for fear of interrupting the other party.

"The so-called 'Piff is not guilty, but he is guilty', the Dao will cannot be stripped away by external forces, unless the body is eliminated, but through the means comprehended by the will, it is possible to plunder through other means, such as the supernatural power with the ability to plunder, and some long-lost forbidden art formations, these can be done."

"It's said that it's lost, but it's just that those big sects want to keep their reputation, and everyone knows each other, but no matter which one it is, losing the supernatural power is equivalent to losing the will, and the only end is death."

"And the first point I want to remind you is that don't use it easily, don't show it in front of people, the fewer people who know, the better, once you have to use it when you have to ......", the man's tone paused slightly, and then his eyes bloomed with a sharp light like a sword, and he said in a deep voice: "Never die!" ”

Wang Ling was stunned and asked, "What is the miracle...?" ”

"As the name suggests, it is like the human heart, the heart through the human body's veins, the blood is pumped to all corners of the body, the innocent heart is to infuse the qi into the limbs, ordinary people need to carry the qi machine through the operation of the week, and have the innocent heart, eat do not need to meditate on the knees, twelve hours a day, eating and sleeping are all in the cultivation."

Wang Ling's pupils dilated instantly, and his face was full of consternation!
