68. The notation of typesetting

Kong Ermao roughly gave Huang Tiedan a rough science popularization of the alchemy boy's awesomeness, and when Huang Tiedan heard it, he was dizzy and said: "Oh, it turns out that you are so great and an alchemy boy, but you don't know who Zhang Da Yaoshi you are talking about?"

Kong Ermao roughly told Huang Tiedan about Zhang Tongche's life, and after Huang Tiedan heard it, he admired Kong Ermao even more.

Kong Ermao said again: "This pharmacist is just an alchemy boy who has been an alchemy boy for Zhang Da pharmacist for a few years, and he has learned some low-level elixir techniques, and now this pharmacist is a well-known pharmacist in this Qingcheng Mountain Range, and even the third-level elixir can be made." ”

Huang Tiedan praised again: "You are so powerful!"

Kong Ermao nodded and said, "That's it." ”

Kong Ermao paused, suddenly sighed, and said: "This pharmacist has lived in this lover valley for more than a hundred years, although the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and the scenery is excellent, but there are not many outer disciples who really come here, and the world is fortunate to live in Qingcheng and like to be lively, so this Qingcheng is also overcrowded, and this lover valley, of course, there are several nearby valleys, there are many new outer disciples who have not been sent down for many years, and in this way, our lover's village has become a silent and unmanned appearance today." ”

Huang Tiedan said: "I see. ”

Kong Ermao said again: "There is one more thing, Zhang Da Yaoshi has gone out many years ago to travel the world, and the identity of this pharmacist as an alchemy boy has long been ineffective, so now, this pharmacist only refines the elixir in the original lover medicine, and refines the elixir. ”

Qingcheng sect is divided into inner and outer two gates, the main body of the outer gate is located in the inner city of Qingcheng, under the outer gate, there are many halls, one of which is called "personnel hall", which is a hall dedicated to managing the personnel arrangements of outer disciples, and the personnel hall manages outer disciples, and will give each outer disciple an identification item, called "disciple order". The disciple order is the token held by each outer disciple to represent and distinguish his identity.

The Qingcheng Sect has a rule that if the villagers want to become a sect cultivator, they need to go through the selection of the spirit summoning conference, during which there are many difficulties, it is the way to rise, and the sect cultivator wants to become a loose cultivator, which is the way to fall, this kind of behavior is called "self-harm and self-inferiority", that is the disciple's "self-inflicted", and the sect will not discourage it. From a high-level sect cultivator to a low-level sect cultivator, I believe that few monks are willing to do this kind of behavior, and occasionally one or two elderly disciples from the outer sect want to turn back into villagers, and the sect will not care about it, and it will not dissuade it.

Kong Ermao only had the words of "changing from sect cultivation to villager", that is, Kong Ermao felt that he was more than two hundred years old, and there was no possibility of rising at this time, and the level of cultivation seemed to be no closer, so he decided to return to his ancestral hometown of Qingshi Town. At this time, Kong Ermao needed to hand over his disciple order representing the identity of the outer disciple to the Qingcheng Personnel Hall, and from then on, he was no longer an outer disciple, but an ordinary villager.

Huang Tiedan was taken aback and asked, "Why do you have to leave here all of a sudden?"

Kong Ermao said: "The lifespan of this monk is limited, although this medicine monk has reached enlightenment and has a lifespan of more than three hundred years, but if he can't reach Haina for a long time, his lifespan will not increase. The pharmacist himself knows his own business, and if he wants to reach Haina in this life, it is almost impossible to achieve. Therefore, prepare early, return to Qingshi first, and spend the rest of the time in my hometown. ”

Huang Tie Dan said, "Oh. ”

Kong Ermao said: "That's true, the lifespan of the outer disciple is only two or three hundred years in a hurry, just like a white horse passing through a gap, if you can't become a great monk in more than two hundred years, everything will be like a mirror, and finally it will turn into a pile of loess." ”

Huang Tiedan nodded again and again, and said, "I see." ”

In this way, the two chatted while sipping the fragrant Qingxiu tea. Kong Ermao's long speech, his words are basically plain and unpretentious, and he is not very exaggerated, and he has a general idea of the world of Qingcheng. Huang Tiedan has been quietly listening to Kong Ermao's speech, and he does not lift the pole, of course, Huang Tiedan is still a child, and he does not know how to lift the pole. Kong Ermao's talk was disorganized and messy, as if he had said something, but it was not detailed.

Kong Ermao said in conclusion: "This pharmacist has said so much, which means to tell you that this world is very big, and there are many monks, but there are few who really become great monks. There are many factors that affect the cultivation of the truth in this cultivation world, but you have to remember that perseverance and perseverance are the most important things, and only in this way can you achieve great things. ”

Huang Tiedan said: "I will definitely remember your old words. ”

Kong Ermao said: "That's good." This pharmacist has a bit of a lot to say today, and on weekdays, this pharmacist is here alone, busy planting elixirs and refining elixirs. ”

Kong Ermao paused, and then said: "Alas, at noon today, an inner monk summoned the pharmacist, saying that Huang Chengcheng and Wang Fengyi were in prison and in danger of death. This pharmacist and Huang Chengcheng have some good fate because of something, and they call each other friends, and according to their generation, he calls this pharmacist Uncle Kong. When the pharmacist heard the bad news, he secretly screamed that it was not good, and he was sad for a while, so he cleaned up his mood and went to the nursery to pick up your little bastard, and this is roughly the case. ”

Kong Ermao's words will be the reason for picking up Huang Tiedan, and Huang Tiedan listened to the words and asked: "Kong Yaoshi, I don't know how you always met my parents?"

When Kong Ermao heard this, he began to tell the story of him and Huang Chengcheng. Kong Ermao said: "Well, there is a twist and turn story in it. Qingcheng Sect, every era is a hundred years, and the sect will be opened and scattered cultivators will be recruited, which is called the Soul Summoning Conference. This Qingcheng Sect has its own typesetting score, and the disciples recruited each time are ranked. This typesetting spectrum, what is the specific, this pharmacist forgot, this pharmacist only remembers that he is a golden generation, and Huang Chengcheng is the next generation of this pharmacist, for the aluminum generation. However, it is not easy to obtain the characters in this typesetting. ”

The Qingcheng Sect holds a spirit summoning conference every hundred years, and the disciples recruited in each session are the same generation. In order to distinguish the different generations of disciples, the Qingcheng Sect set up a "character generation" for each generation of disciples to show the disciples of different generations, which is related to the typesetting spectrum. Qingcheng Sect typesetting spectrum, there are thirty-six character generations, one word for each generation, it takes 3,600 years of reincarnation, from the first word generation to the last word generation, it is one round, and then the next round.

The thirty-six characters of the typesetting spectrum, from the first to the thirty-sixth, are: big, green, cheng, huan, gui, have, happy, lian, top, it, ring, xuan, iron, copper, gold, aluminum, tin, silver, sky, down, put, none, side, swim, pity, light, time, together, near, far, build, true, gong, strange, such as, broken. Qingcheng Sect since the establishment of the sect, has gone through more than 10,000 years, typesetting spectrum has been three and a half reincarnations, to the generation of Kong Ermao, for the "gold" generation, to the generation of Huang Chengcheng, for the "aluminum" generation, and then down is the tin generation, silver generation, Tianzi generation, and so on.

Kong Ermao didn't seem to be very clear about the typesetting notation, so he had to vaguely say something to Huang Tiedan, and Huang Tiedan listened and asked: "Kong Yaoshi, how can I get the characters in the typesetting spectrum?"

Kong Ermao said: "What is it, this is the secret of the sect, and this pharmacist is not very clear, in short, it is not an easy matter." ”

Huang Tiedan nodded and said, "Oh, I see. ”

Kong Ermao said: "You little bastard, don't interject, wait for this pharmacist to speak slowly." ”

Huang Tiedan had no choice but to nod and stop talking.

Kong Ermao said again: "This pharmacist is a monk of the golden generation more than a hundred years ago. However, it is also ashamed to say that although this pharmacist is dedicated to upward, his qualifications are indeed almost, in that year's spirit conference, because his qualifications are not comparable to others, he was only accepted as an outer disciple by the sect, and since then he has been assigned here to plant elixir for the sect, this kind of medicine has been more than a hundred years, and it is estimated that it will be the day of death. Alas, therefore, this pharmacist thought that now that he is old, it is better to return to his hometown, which can be regarded as a return to his roots. ”

Huang Tiedan looked at Kong Ermao with both eyes, and did not speak, but looked puzzled. Seeing this, Kong Ermao asked, "Do you have any questions?"

Huang Tiedan listened to Kong Ermao's question, and then he spoke, and he said, "Isn't this outer disciple promoted to an inner disciple?"

Kong Ermao said: "This is more difficult than climbing to the sky. Qingcheng Sect attaches the most importance to qualifications, if the qualifications are not good, the speed of cultivation is not good, and the possibility of becoming a great monk is also extremely low, this kind of monk with low qualifications, Qingcheng Sect will not risk accepting it as an inner disciple, this Qingcheng Sect pays the most attention to qualifications, and wants to produce a few great monks the most, so it is impossible to promote the outer disciples to the inner disciples. This outer disciple, to put it bluntly, is just a miscellaneous servant for the Qingcheng Sect, a coolie for the Qingcheng Sect, only a little higher than the ordinary villagers, the real core of the Qingcheng Sect is still the inner disciple. ”

Huang Tiedan nodded again.

Kong Ermao said again: "This inner disciple usually lives on top of the five peaks, and occasionally some inner disciples are sent out to manage Qingcheng and various small towns, manage the outer disciples and villagers of Qingcheng Prefecture, and of course, also include the outer disciples of the valleys of the Qingcheng Mountains. The outer disciples, although they also claim to be sect cultivators, are not the same as the inner disciples, and their status is very far behind. ”

Kong Ermao said again: "This pharmacist's experience is slightly better, this pharmacist originally planted spiritual trees in this lover's valley, thinking that he would be like this all his life. ”
