Chapter 12: Outstanding Talent

"Cai Wei is my daughter's name. Luo Shan smiled, his eyes were full of love, compared to the seriousness of the apprentice, now it is like two people, and said: "Don't look at the girl's young age, compared to other disciples, she only knows a lot more." I'm away all the year round, and if you have any questions, you might as well ask her, don't lose face. ”

After explaining the matter, Luo Shan saw that he was still delaying leaving, and after thinking about it, he already understood, sighed secretly, and said: "You also saw it today, my disciples are very strict, and the idlers can't hold on." Of course, hard work alone is not enough, talent and qualifications are also indispensable, as for the ...... you want to apprentice?"

Lin Yi listened with bated breath, and his heart was raised to his throat, for fear of missing half a sound, but Luoshan said and slowly stopped. Lin Yi suddenly panicked, sweating in his palms, and after waiting for a while, Luo Shan took a long breath and said, "I still need to think about it for some more time." ”

The answer was ambiguous, and Lin Yi couldn't help but show disappointment, but he was relieved. Thinking back to following him all the way, Luo Shan not only did not get angry, but took him in kindly, and even arranged an errand, so he couldn't be brazen anymore, so he had to nod his head and give up.

But the feud of Huaijiang is unforgettable, and it is difficult to sleep and eat if you don't report it for a day, and this division will have to bow down sooner or later.

Lin Yi had a plan in his heart, saluted and said goodbye, Luo Caiwei stood outside the door, waited for him to come out, and led him to the study. The two crossed the eaves, crossed the promenade, and stopped in front of a small courtyard with the words "Qingteng Zhai" written on the plaque on the door.

The small courtyard is slightly dilapidated, with only one room in it, divided into two floors. The study is now managed by an old man, and when he saw Luo Caiwei leading Lin Yi in, he explained the reason and happily handed it over. Tell Lin Yi that there are not many people who come to this study on weekdays, and you can clean it every morning and evening.

Lin Yi couldn't speak, Luo Caiwei stayed for a while, felt bored and left. Lin Yi had nothing to do, so he took out a broom, swept the house inside and out, carried a bucket of water, and carefully wiped the dust off the bookcase with a linen cloth, even in the corners. During the day, in addition to going out to eat, almost all of them are cleaning and tidying, and if they have leisure, they sit down and meditate. At night, I slept in the side hall, with all the beds and bedding, and after a few busy days, the whole college took on a new look.

Every day, the cook will send medicine, Lin Yi drank the medicinal soup, his throat began to recover slowly, and he was gradually able to make a sound, and after getting acquainted with the cook, he had a better understanding of the situation in the house. I heard that the master Luoshan had practiced on Lingfeng and had a Taoist couple, but later the Taoist priest was tragically harmed by the Immortal Sect, and Luoshan suffered from inner demons because of this, and his cultivation fell into a bottleneck. took his daughter down the mountain, moved into this Lingguan Mansion, and guarded one side.

And at noon that day, Lin Yi had eaten and was practicing his voice in the yard, when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw a slightly chubby boy looking at him curiously.

"Qingtengzhai has changed?"

Hearing him ask, Lin Yi opened his mouth to explain the reason, which affected the throat injury, which was hot and stinging, and he stammered as he spoke. The boy patted him on the shoulder and said with pity: "It's okay if your voice is ugly, you have to be confident, otherwise you will stutter easily." ”

Lin Yi was so angry that he was helpless, but he used to sing with Nian Youxue Qin, and his voice didn't say how good it sounded, at least he wouldn't blow the guest Yaxing.

The boy borrowed a book, sat on a chair and flipped through it, coming every day at noon and leaving in the afternoon. For several days in a row, the interval told Lin Yi a lot of things.

Through him, Lin Yi learned that most of the people who came here to study were children of rich families. When the elders in the family heard about the name of the spirit official, they came to visit and did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to get through the relationship and let the children apprentice. I hope to enter the Heavenly Book Mansion in the future, serve as a spiritual official, and get ahead.

"How many spirit officers have come out of here?" Lin Yi asked in a hoarse voice, speaking with great difficulty.

"Tell you the truth, Master Luo moved over, took in apprentices and taught for seven years, and so far there is no one, and it is not easy to become a spiritual official. ”

The two sat in the study and chatted, talking to him This chubby boy is called Zhang Yingzhuo, fifteen years old this year, a whole head taller than Lin Yi, he has been studying in the house for four years, and he is an old student.

"It's so difficult?" Lin Yi was puzzled.

"Do you know what a spirit officer is?" Zhang Yingzhuo patted his stomach, and he didn't have a good breath. "At best, they can cast all kinds of spells, call the wind and rain, and turn mountains and seas, and at the smallest, they can also cultivate themselves and maintain their beauty, and live forever. ”

Lin Yi shook his head and was noncommittal, "It's so powerful, have you seen it again?"

Zhang Yingzhuo was asked about the key point, and after a while, he was embarrassed and said: "Although Master Luo has not played any magical powers, everyone ...... That's what they all say. ”

Seeing this, Lin Yi diverted the topic: "Brother Zhang, what does Lord Luo mainly teach on weekdays?"

"Fist and foot kung fu, sword and weapon equipment. Zhang Yingzhuo replied immediately. "Actually, these are all ordinary, you can learn a little bit from anywhere, it's just the difference between strength and weakness, and the key lies in practicing the Qi method. ”

"What is the Qi Cultivation Method?" Lin Yi listened attentively and hurriedly asked.

"Do you know what a spiritual root is, and what a fairy fate is?"

Lin Yi shook his head again and again, and said expectantly: "Brother Zhang, I don't know about these, please advise." ”

Zhang Yingzhuo crossed his legs and said proudly: "The so-called spiritual root is transformed by essence, and there is a dantian under the umbilicus, which is usually nourished by essence, and it is possible to grow spiritual roots." And this method of gathering qi and converging yuan is extremely mysterious, and whether it can be mastered depends on personal understanding. Master said that those who can grow spiritual roots are called immortal fate, and if they can't plant them, they are mud nerds. ”

"That'...... Does Brother Zhang have an immortal fate?"

"Cough, cough!" Zhang Yingzhuo almost choked, barely relieved, and explained: "Don't think that it is very simple to grow a spiritual root, there is a huge spiritual official mansion, there are more than 500 people before and after, and only these thirty are left after the test, and there are only four people who have planted spiritual roots." ”

"Out of five hundred people, only four have formed spiritual roots...... Lin Yi looked sideways and pondered: "Isn't it one in a hundred?"

Zhang Yingzhuo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Not to mention one in a hundred, planting a spiritual root is just the beginning." If you continue to cultivate with essence, the spiritual roots will gradually grow like saplings, and the branches will spread throughout the body, forming qi veins, which can be used in actual combat. ”

"It seems to hurt to say. Lin Yi listened to this with sour teeth, frowned and said, "How can this qi vein be combated?"

"It is used to transmit true qi. ”

"But if you rely on divine thoughts, can't you directly use your true qi, why bother doing it again?"

Zhang Yingzhuo glanced at him in surprise, shook his head and said, "This is different, with the qi vein, you can completely control it." In the blink of an eye, whatever you want, close to the palm of the flesh, you can cut the rock and break the wood. If you don't have a qi vein, maybe you can throw a punch, and your true qi hasn't passed through your chest. ”

Seeing that Lin Yi couldn't take his eyes off when he heard this, Zhang Yingzhuo suddenly became interested, and said: "Then it will be called Zhou Tian, and the qi veins need to spread all over the body, reaching the limbs and hundreds of internal organs." With a gesture, it can open the stele and crack the stone, and release the true qi to protect the body, just like the iron armor of the clothes. ”

Zhang Yingzhuo suddenly sighed: "But even so, it is only a foundation, if you want to become a spiritual official, you have to go to the next level." The path of cultivation is long and difficult, how easy is it to talk about? Even the most qualified Wuxin Senior Brother, who has been practicing hard for five years, can only breathe through the pulses. Master said that with the qualifications of Wuxin, it is expected to reach Zhou Tian within 20 years. ”

"Twenty years to practice until Zhou Tian?" Lin Yi was shocked, thinking of the white-eyed wolf's cultivation, he said in his heart, could it be that if he wants to take revenge, he will have to wait for decades?

No, maybe more than that.

Lin Yi was disappointed and depressed, and Zhang Yingzhuo enlightened: "Don't be greedy, most people are extremely poor all their lives, and they can't grow spiritual roots. Even if you only practice foreign kung fu thoroughly, you can still walk the rivers and lakes with a sword, and you can be chic and comfortable. ”

"Really?" Lin Yi said in frustration: "Whether you can apprentice now or not has to be another story." ”

"Don't be greedy, you can learn zazen first and feel the flow of true qi in your body. At the beginning, it only took more than three months for Senior Brother Wuxin to find a sense of qi, and within a year, he planted a spiritual root. Zhang Yingzhuo's face was full of admiration, mixed with a little envy. "Just one sense of qi, except for Little Sister Caiwei, the rest of the people are not less than half a year old. ”

Brother Wuxin, with outstanding talent, it took more than three months?

Lin Yi was stunned, if it wasn't wrong, it only took him a month to find his sense of qi...... When Zhang Yingzhuo was sent away, he couldn't hold back the surprise, and cheered a few times with his arms open. "Yo, the dumb will scream?" Lin Yi was still happy, and several figures recklessly broke into the house. The sturdy guy at the head was the one who had a conflict with him in the cafeteria before.

Wei Wenbin took the three disciples and walked into Qingteng Zhai with his head shaken, looking around and kicking along the way.

Lin Yi was unhappy, and said in a deep voice: "What is the matter with you?"

"Huh?" Wei Wenbin looked at him curiously, "It turns out that you can speak." He took a book out of the bookcase, flipped through two pages, let go of his fingers, and threw it on the floor. "It's nothing, borrow a book and take a look. Said lazily, reaching for a copy.

Lin Yi suppressed his anger, bent down to pick up the book, and was just about to raise his head when a book smashed on his head!

"I'm sorry. Wei Wenbin smiled contemptuously, "I didn't grasp it steadily, my hand slipped." ”

Lin Yi was bullied and couldn't have a seizure, so he could only endure it and had to endure it!

He took a few deep breaths, calmed down, stood up, slowly grinned, and smiled, "It's okay." ”

Wei Wenbin wanted to provoke him to take the opportunity to clean up, but he didn't expect Lin Yi to laugh instead of being angry. He couldn't help but shiver, and found that he was timid, so he hurriedly roared, mustered up his courage, and pushed Lin Yi to the ground.

Before he could get up, Wei Wenbin stepped on his chest and threatened viciously: "You have been eating at the same table with Miss Luo in the past few days, and someone has seen it and feels uncomfortable, let me give you a message." ”

Wei Wenbin bent down to look at him, and said word by word: "I don't want to see you here, stay away from Miss Luo in the future, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around, do you understand?"

"Who am I eating with, and what do I have to do with you?" Lin Yi said as he struggled.

"Hmph, I'll make you understand right away, it's not about us. Wei Wenbin sneered and waved his hand: "Call me!"

At the sound of an order, the three of them went up together!
