Chapter 165: Eighty
The wanderer entered the stone arch and walked along the path. The road was overgrown with weeds, like a mountain path that was rarely inhabited, and he could barely see the direction of the road, and if it weren't for the strong monastic aura that filled the mountains everywhere, he would have thought that he had been thrown into the wilderness and ignored it.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of breaking the air overhead, and when I looked up, I saw a ray of turquoise light passing through the air.
"Is this the flight of the Edgeworth, it is really desirable, no wonder the road under the feet is so bumpy and difficult, the monks of the Xuanming Road are afraid that they rarely take the mountain road, they are all the Edgeworth Flight."
You Ziji is open-minded, and he doesn't want to be bound by the small mountain road, so he jumps on the canopy of the tree with his skills, and when the breeze comes, he walks on the wind, and when the wind gradually stops, he also stops to enjoy the scenery. As for whether the direction is right or not, he doesn't care very much. Even if you follow the mountain road, who can guarantee that you will never go crooked, just follow your heart.
He walked and stopped, and saw a mountain peak blocking in front of him, its towering into the clouds and no top could be seen, and You Ziji looked very small at the foot of the mountain, even the heaven and the earth seemed to be inferior.
You Ziji aroused the desire to win, so he wanted to climb to the top and see the scenery from above.
was just about to start, but was stopped by a voice, "Senior brother, slow down." ”
You Ziji inquired about the prestige, and saw a little golden light in the sky from far and near, slowly magnifying, but it was a young monk stepping on a golden flying sword galloping towards this side.
The young man looked about the same size as Ling Ri and Ling Yue, and the aura he exuded was already a Xuanjing monk.
You Ziji guessed that this person was most likely to greet his senior brother, so he stopped and waited. The young monk rushed here, put away his sword, and couldn't help but marvel at the mountain in front of him. You Ziji saw that this young man's clothes were bright and bright, the materials and shapes were quite elegant, and he was dressed as a young man, especially the conspicuous golden flying sword, and he knew that he was worth a lot of money, and asked: "In Downstream Ziji, what happened to the senior brother who just called me to stop?" ”
The young man said: "My surname is Wen Yi, I am your senior brother, and I am here to pick up your little eighty." ”
You Ziji pointed at himself puzzled, "Little eighty? ”
"That's right, it's you, I, Xuanming Dao, now count you, a total of eighty people."
"So little?" You Ziji was very surprised, there were only eighty disciples of Xuanming Dao, which was really a bit mismatched for the names of the six major sects.
"That's nature." Ji Wenyi was obviously very proud of this matter, "There were only sixty disciples and elders in the previous generation, and our current session is already the largest number of people in all generations, which is really a sign of the prosperity of the master." ”
"What? In addition, there are only 80 elders in the division, are we so strict in accepting apprentices? ”
You Ziji didn't know why, he was a little unconfident, he didn't think he was an extremely powerful genius.
Ji Wenyi didn't know You Ziji's thoughts, and replied: "That's natural, I Xuanming Dao only looks at fate when accepting apprentices, even if you are a genius and have no fate with us, you won't accept it." ”
You Ziji breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that he didn't look at qualifications, but he recalled the experience of Chang Yunbai when he met him, and he was a little puzzled, and asked, "Then how can it be considered fate?" ”
"If you want to accept it, you can accept it if you don't want to accept it, if you catch up, you have a fate, and if you don't catch up, you don't have a fate, provided that it looks pleasing to the eye. I think you're very pleasing to the eye, junior brother. ”
You Ziji was stunned, he didn't seem to have thought about this answer, he even began to imagine the personality of the disciples of the Xuanming Dao Sect, "We are really casual." ”
"Of course, the path of detachment that I seek is the path of seeking the heart, and the heart is at ease, and the ten directions of heaven and earth cannot bind you. I saw that my junior brother was walking in the wind just now, very chic and free, and it was really the seedling of my Xuanming Dao. ”
You Ziji said embarrassedly: "It's just that when I saw the pleasant scenery and open-mindedness, I was a little presumptuous." ”
"As long as you don't do things that hurt nature and reason, you can be as presumptuous as you want." Ji Wenyi blinked, "The premise is that you have the strength, don't say that the senior brother didn't remind you, and if you don't want to be scolded by the elders, it's best to hide your special hobbies first." ”
"Senior Brother Ji is too worried, I don't have that hobby."
"How could it not be, your senior brothers and sisters have all experienced it, for example, me, I like to collect treasures the most, I want to buy good things when I see them, and I was cleaned up so miserably by the second senior brother at that time, I have all the evidence for this."
"Thank you, brother, for mentioning."
Ji Wenyi chatted for a long time before remembering the matter, "I hit it off with my junior brother at first sight, but I forgot about the business, let's not continue to stay here, stay away from it." ”
You Ziji looked left and right, and it seemed that the only thing that Ji Wenyi could refer to as "it" was the mountain peak in front of him.
"Senior brother, is there anything strange about this mountain?"
Ji Wenyi said: "Of course, this is your Uncle Wenyan's masterpiece, don't you think the real mountain is a little outrageous?" ”
"It's a little too high, and it feels like it can connect heaven and earth." You Ziji told his feelings truthfully.
"There is no mountain so high in the world, and you are deceived by it. Our Uncle Wen Yan likes to study some spells, here is based on the Buddhist theory, showing the magic power of Sumeru mustard seeds, when you enter the mountain, the body has actually shrunk, so I feel that this mountain peak is extremely tall, as high as heaven and earth. Besides, after shrinking, the area in this mountain is the size of Longzhou compared to you, and if you go in directly just now, I want to find you, but it will be difficult. ”
"It's so dangerous." You Ziji had palpitations and hurriedly left here with Ji Wenyi.
"Actually, it wouldn't be too dangerous, but this mountain peak is used as an experimental place by Uncle Wen Yan, if you fall into it, she will know, and she will come to rescue you when the time comes, and your life will be worry-free, but a scolding is indispensable."
Ji Wenyi's imperial envoy Feijian also brought You Ziji with him, and the two hurried while chatting.
Seeing that Ji Wenyi obviously had some places where he could go straight, but he wanted to go around, You Ziji was very puzzled and asked:
"Senior brother, it's because there is danger ahead, so I have to take a detour."
"Senior Brother You is smart, this road is full of traps set by Senior Brother when he practiced back then, which was used to practice his hands, and later his cultivation became deeper, and he didn't need these formations to be dismantled. Our second senior brother said that this thing was a good place for trial, and it was specially used to cultivate for the younger brothers and sisters who were weak in cultivation, so they stayed. The junior brother should remember the location well, if he accidentally falls into the trap in the future, there will be a punishment. ”
When Ji Wenyi said this, his body curled up unconsciously, obviously this punishment was not so likable.
"Don't worry, Xuanming Dao is so big, I may not meet it a few times."
Ji Wenyi disagreed with You Ziji's words very much, and said: "There are some places where junior disciples can't go, and I'm afraid that I will have to take the road on the trap when the time comes." Senior brother knows why my Xuanming Dao is so big, and why the elders of the sect are all far away from each other, they will not all be very withdrawn and do not like to communicate. ”
You Ziji didn't know, racked his brains and thought for a while, and guessed: "Xu is the elders are all studying spells, so I don't want anyone to disturb me." ”
"You're not bad, but you don't get to the point." Ji Wenyi leaned over to You Ziji and said: "Divine consciousness is something that everyone has, but only in the foundation building realm can you feel its existence, knowing that there is such a thing, you can start using it when you are in the Xuan Realm, and you can send and receive it freely when you reach the Moon Gazing Realm."
Divine consciousness can take the place of one's own senses and feel everything in the world more directly. Ordinary monks let go of their divine consciousness and take themselves as the center of the circle, and they can perceive the situation around them for about two or three miles, which is not the limit distance to concentrate a little bit, and the deeper the cultivation, the wider the range of their perception.
The divine consciousness exuded by the monks of the Mochizuki Realm at all times will collect the information around them autonomously, if they are close and have nothing to hide, they will be known by the other party clearly, without the slightest privacy, and in the long run, they will inevitably be uncomfortable.
Therefore, in addition to having special duties, the monks of the Moon Gazing Realm in the door must build cultivation places at a suitable distance according to their respective strengths, anyway, with their strength, when they go out of their own courtyard, it is basically equivalent to arriving at the door of someone else's house, which is not far for them. ”
You Ziji thought for a while, "So, Xuan Ming Dao has already planned the neighborhood, but I can't see it from the outside, if I accidentally go to the wrong place, it can be regarded as breaking into the elder's house." ”
"That's right." Ji Wenyi had a teachable expression.
The two of them rode on the sword, and the speed was very fast, and soon they reached their destination, with several huts at their feet. Ji Wenyi's imperial envoy flew his sword down and stood in front of the thatched hut.
"This is your temporary residence, junior brother, but no one has lived here for two or three years, so you have to clean it up. I'll take you to the Library Pavilion early tomorrow morning to get to know my brothers and sisters. ”
"The Library Pavilion?"
Ji Wenyi pointed to the mountain behind You Ziji and said, "There is the Library Pavilion, which is our gathering place, and there are more than thirty monks staying there. The other brothers and sisters all live around the foot of the mountain, if you are interested, you can go to the side to have a look, and you may meet the same family. I still have homework to do, so I'll leave first, and my brother and sister will have a good night's rest here. ”
You Ziji nodded and watched Ji Wenyi leave.
He looked at the somewhat dilapidated thatched hut and thought to himself, this is my first cultivation in the Xuanming Dao.
Fortunately, when he was in Tianhai Lake, he rebuilt the mountain villa with the Taoist priests of Tianyu Temple, and with a little experience, it was not difficult to clean up the house and repair the roof.
You Ziji first found a lot of usable items in the house, then fetched some water, wiped the inside and outside of the house several times, and took some thatch to plug the roof loopholes, and worked until the evening.
When he first arrived, he didn't know where to eat, and he didn't dare to hunt for wild game in the mountains, and no one knew if it was a pet. He had to set the stove on fire, boil some hot water, tear up the uneaten dry food and soak it in, sprinkle some salt into it, and eat it deliciously.
Seeing that it was getting late and he was not familiar with it, he went back to the house to practice according to the idea of visiting elsewhere.
But he didn't know that his actions had already been seen.
