Chapter 63: Losing money
Exercises that harm people!
Elder Xing said this, Gu Zuo was stunned for a moment: "Elder Xing, what are you...... What do you mean?"
Elder Xing immediately asked Gu Zuo about the origin of "Sou Ling Jue", and kept asking about the past events of the Huaixian Pavilion, he didn't care about the twists and turns, he just beat his chest vigorously: "Such a talented and beautiful jade, I was delayed by this Wang Hengyi...... If I see this man, I must teach him a good lesson!" Alas...... Forget it, it's the old man who is angry, and it shouldn't be said so, after all, people have passed away......"
Gu Zuo interjected: "It hasn't been confirmed yet. ”
Elder Xing flicked his sleeves: "It's almost there......! Angry old man!"
Gu Zuo heard Elder Xing complain and reprimand here, but he didn't mention the matter, and he couldn't help but be anxious: "Elder Xing, what's going on?"
So, Elder Xing explained with an angry face.
Elder Xing's magic weapon is called the Five Elements Heavenly Silk, and it has the most sensitive sense of spiritual power, and the Yunmeng Sect uses it to check the talent of the disciples, which is the most accurate. Gu Zuo's talent was found to be excellent, which originally made Elder Xing very happy, and he secretly pondered, I was afraid that the sect would produce another genius.
Problems were found in the process of inspection, when Gu Zuo absorbed the spirit stone, the absorption speed was extremely fast, but he could squander one point if he sucked one point, he could only absorb half of the spirit stone, and the other half would be exhausted at the same time but he didn't know what to do, according to Elder Xing's explanation, I am afraid that it will be dissipated in heaven and earth!
To put it bluntly, Gu Zuo's cultivation process is the process of quickly wasting spirit stones, this is a huge black hole, and the spirit stones he consumes will be twice as many as others, and now it is good to say that in the future, when it comes to building foundations, Jindan, Yuanying and even refining voids, the waste of spirit stones will be thousands.
The problem lies in the "Soul Search Technique", it is the difficulty of integrating this exercise with spiritual power, which has caused a huge waste of spirit stones, so Elder Xing hates it.
No wonder it only took him three days to absorb a spirit stone, because he wasted the other half of the spirit power in the spirit stone.
If it's just a waste of spirit stones, with Gu Zuo's talent, Yunmeng Sect can also endure it, it's a big deal to get twice the result with half the effort, and use spirit stones to pile up Gu Zuo's cultivation, anyway, Yunmeng Sect has spirit stone veins, and there is no shortage of this.
But the problem is that the waste of spirit stones in the "Soul Searching Formula" is just a symptom, and countless examples show that this kind of inefficient exercise is "slow to induce" the Dao method based on spiritual power, and it is difficult to learn anything!
At the same time, it will inevitably be accompanied by other side effects, such as the same waste of the efficacy of the elixir - when the cultivation reaches a critical moment in the future, a priceless elixir will be directly pitted with half of the spiritual effect, what can you do? That is not half of the problem, but the problem that does not work after taking it.
Another example is when you get a suitable magic weapon, when you can use it, you can only play half of the effectiveness of the magic weapon, and you can't die when you fight the law?
"Don't practice the "Soul Search Technique" anymore, abandon it immediately! After getting started, you will switch to the "Spirit Flying Sutra"! You have entered the cultivation too late, and you have been delayed by this exercise for almost two years, and if you want to delay it any longer, it will be the year of establishment, do you think there is still anyone in the sect in the world who is willing to accept you?" The old man issued an edict angrily.
Gu Zuo lamented his own pit, and was moved by Elder Xing's love, and was sincerely taught: "Everything is up to your old man's arrangement." ”
The three-day recruitment period passed quickly, and in this recruitment, Yunmeng Sect only recruited two disciples, one was Gu Zuo, and the other was a monk in the late stage of a Qi Refiner, a monk from the Maoshan Sect who came thousands of miles away. But this disciple of the Maoshan Sect only came to Yunmeng Valley to study for three years, and he will return to Maoshan after three years, which has nothing to do with the Yunmeng Sect, so the only disciple of the sect who is recruited in the real sense is Gu Zuo.
As for those teenagers who have not entered the cultivation process, most of them have no cultivation talent, and the two who have cultivation talent have too ordinary qualifications, and their meridians are not "very different from ordinary people". Maybe you can get opportunities in other small sects, but for the Yunmeng Sect, it is not worth cultivating.
This kind of recruitment, Yunmeng Sect has to do it five or six times a year, and it is already rare to be able to recruit two disciples, and more often than not, one can not be recruited.
Gu Zuo officially became an outer disciple of the Yunmeng Sect, although it was an outer sect, it was enough to brag and show off with his waist crossed, if he returned to Shanyin County at this time, the Zhuji elders of the Liulin Sect and the Dushan Sect would also be received, and even the county lieutenant Zhang Mo was afraid that it would not be good to have any other thoughts about him, let alone suppress him.
Gu Zuo received two new clothes, two spirit stones this month, and a small bottle of Concentration Pill to assist in cultivation, which were personally sent to the lower courtyard by Elder Xing.
The outer gate of the Yunmeng Sect is divided into the upper courtyard, the middle courtyard, and the lower courtyard, which deal with disciples at different stages of cultivation.
The upper courtyard is also the general affairs courtyard of the Yunmeng Sect, and the middle courtyard is for the disciples who are in the late stage of Qi refining and those who have attained perfection - the sect mainly selects inner disciples from among them, so the cultivation is the hardest, and the competition is also very fierce.
The lower courtyard is the disciples in the early stage of qi refining, most of these disciples are newcomers within five years of entry, if they are still lingering in the early stage of qi refining for more than five years, the sects will have to negotiate with them about the way out in the future, either give them a sum of money and let them leave the mountain to wander on their own, or transfer to the upper court to do things.
The deacon, who was in charge of the daily affairs of the lower courtyard, saw that it was Elder Xing who came forward to lead the people, and immediately arranged Gu Zuo into a small building with sunset, and let him choose a room with a good window view. Yunmeng Valley is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, surrounded by mountains, and can occasionally bask in the sun, which shows the good terrain of this small building.
Gu Zuo pushed open the window lattice, looked at the mountain top and the waterhole downstairs outside the window, and immediately felt relaxed!
After arranging Gu Zuo, Elder Xing left, he still had a lot of things to do, and it was impossible to spend all his heart on Gu Zuo, but he just told Gu Zuo to practice the exercises of Yunmeng Sect in a good life, and not to live up to this "good skin", and said that he would pay attention to Gu Zuo's cultivation at any time, so that he must not slack off.
In addition to teaching the Fa, there are also special Taoist classes to teach practical Taoism, in addition to regular fighting competitions, ranking according to the victory or defeat of the fighting method every month, etc.
Gu Zuo took the teaching arrangement for this month and studied it for a long time, and found the most suitable deacon for himself, who specialized in the cultivation of the initial stage of the Lingfei Sutra, which was arranged for people like him who had just entered the sect. The deacon lectures every three days and will be able to attend two days later.
was thinking about whether to go out to recognize the door, and when he was familiar with his face, Twelve Niang had already appeared outside his door.
"How?"
"It feels good, huh. Elder Xing is fine. ”
"Go, I will lead you around the valley, and you will know the way. ”
"Then there will be labor, wait for me to put on my shoes. ”
Wandering along the stream, Twelve Niang asked Gu Zuo about the recruitment of the exam, and after listening to the side effects of "Sou Ling Jue", she was very sorry: "If this is the case, it is really a pity, you can perform the Spirit Flying Sutra with this exercise, which is quite amazing, and I will consider learning it from you." ”
Gu Zuoye could only smile bitterly: "Losing money and goods, what is there to learn." ”
