Chapter 2: The Taoist Priest
After Gu Changqing left Hujiagou, he trotted all the way to Emei County while the night was still dark.
Fortunately, Hujiagou is not far from the county seat.
He went straight to Dade Qian Zhuang, and the little guy at the door was laying out the door panel.
Gu Changqing shouted: "Xiao He, wait a minute!"
Xiao He heard the voice, turned around and smiled: "Why is it so late today?"
"It's hard to put into words. ”
The two entered the money village, and Gu Changqing saw that there was no one at the counter, and asked, "Shopkeeper Liu is not there?"
"His family had a great joy, and his wife gave birth to a big fat boy. ”
"That's a great welcome. ”
Xiao He walked into the counter and said, "Shopkeeper Liu is not here, so can I, after all, you are just exchanging a hundred Wenbao bills." ”
"You still know me. ”
Gu Changqing put the purse given by Hu Changshun on the counter and poured out one hundred and twenty coins from it.
"Exchange one hundred Wenbao bills, and I'll keep the remaining twenty. ”
Xiao He took out the treasure money and handed it to Gu Changqing, and asked: "This year, you have changed the treasure money more than ten times, I am very curious, only a hundred Wen, why do you have to change it to a treasure banknote?
Gu Changqing smiled and didn't answer, this was actually a secret of his.
After receiving the treasure money, Gu Changqing immediately left the county seat and rushed to Mount Emei.
Almost came to the foot of Mount Emei, seeing that the sky was dark and there was no one around, Gu Changqing took out the treasure banknote, and shook it in front of him, and the treasure money immediately turned into ashes.
At this moment, a string of numbers appeared in his mind.
[Mana: 1050]
Gu Changqing took a long breath, and finally reached a thousand.
He sank his consciousness into his mind, and there was a mall in it.
The mall has two sections, the upper half displays various items, including elixirs, weapons, and talismans, and the lower part is a turntable with a total of eight scales, on which are also displayed some items, four of which say "Thank you for participating".
Gu Changqing looked at the upper half of the mall, his eyes locked on the first column, where a bottle of pill was displayed, with the words "Inferior Dao Heart Pill", worth a thousand mana.
The effect of this elixir is that it can enable ordinary people to attain the lower grade Dao heart.
In the Ming Dynasty, not everyone can cultivate the Tao, you must have a Taoist heart to be qualified to cultivate the Tao, some people are born with a Taoist heart, born from the mother's womb is a genius of the Tao, some people have no Taoist heart in their lives, even if they study the Taoist scriptures for a lifetime, they can't enter the Tao.
The heart of the Dao is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the lower grade is the secondary, the upper is the middle grade, and the upper grade is the upper grade.
The better the quality of the Dao Heart, the faster the cultivation speed, and it is said that above the high-grade Dao Heart, there is also the best Dao Heart.
A person with a superb Dao heart can cultivate a thousand times more than an ordinary Taoist priest in one day.
Gu Changqing looked at this bottle of Lower Grade Dao Heart Pill, and his eyes were about to light up.
It's been more than a year since I came to this world, and I can finally get the Dao Heart.
That's right, Gu Changqing is actually not from this world.
More than a year ago, he crossed into this world, at first he thought he had traveled to the Ming Dynasty, but after a while, he found that this Ming Dynasty was a little different from the Ming Dynasty in history.
This Ming Dynasty is the whole people to the Tao, and the Taoist priest is the pillar of this world.
No matter what you do, cultivation is the first choice, and even if you are an official, you must cultivate the Tao.
For a long time, there is a saying in the world, which is widely spread.
If you want to be an official, you must first cultivate the Tao.
The higher the rank, the deeper the path.
Legend has it that all the officials in the court were masters of cultivation and had profound mana.
Even a seven-rank county order is a Taoist priest with high mana.
Once you become a Taoist priest, you have the opportunity to enter the court as an official, and the higher the rank, the stronger the mana.
As for why the higher the rank, the stronger the mana, this is related to the issue of Dao Gong.
If you want to become a Taoist priest, you must pass the assessment of the Taoist priest at least the county level.
After passing the assessment, the Daoist priest will receive the Dao Gong and pass it down to the Dao Gong, so that he can become a real Taoist priest.
After becoming a Taoist priest, if you want to improve your Taoist mana, the only way to improve your mana is to be promoted.
For example, if he is promoted to an official and becomes an eight-rank county, then the Dao Gong Division will give him the eight-grade Dao Gong, and his Dao Xing is the eighth grade at this time.
The mana of the Taoist priest is in the Dao Urn, and the promotion of the official rank is the improvement of the Dao Urn, and the improvement of the Dao Jar is the improvement of the mana.
Promotion is the fastest way to progress in monasticism.
Of course, there are also some geniuses, relying on perseverance and perseverance, and profound blessings, they have learned advanced Taoism and improved the level of Taoism by themselves.
Such a person is particularly valued by the imperial court, and it is possible to directly recruit them into the court as officials.
Gu Changqing came to this world and found these wonderful things, of course, he was fascinated, and immediately ran to a small Taoist temple at the foot of Mount Emei Taiyiguan to learn the Tao.
Taiyi Temple is a small Taoist temple among the many Taoist temples in Emei County, with three tile houses and the main hall are still breathable.
The reason why I chose Taiyi Temple is because only this Taoist Temple can accept disciples for free.
All Taoist temples in the world have to charge for accepting disciples.
Gu Changqing's family is poor, where can he afford to pay the tuition?
In the first two months of coming to this world, Gu Changqing was full of anger and worked everywhere, preparing to earn some money so that he could enter a better Taoist temple and learn the Tao.
When he got two months of hard work and a hundred treasure money, the treasure money disappeared all of a sudden.
Since then, he has one more mall in his mind.
There are three wonderful uses for this marketplace.
The first is the ability to turn treasure money into mana.
A hundred treasure notes can be exchanged for a hundred mana.
This is the reason why Gu Changqing has neither Dao heart nor mana without receiving a gong.
The only thing that can be turned into mana is treasure money, and all treasures, silver, and gold can't.
Gu Changqing relied on the treasure money obtained from his workmanship to exchange mana from the mall, and began to try to kill demons.
In this world, there are all kinds of demons and monsters, and supernatural events occur every three days.
Under normal circumstances, when such a thing happens, it is to invite the Taoist priest or the Taoist priest of the Taoist temple to come out.
However, the Taoist priests sent out in these two places have to be charged.
It is not a problem for big families to invite them as Taoist priests, but ordinary people can't afford to invite them.
So, Gu Changqing relied on his two legs in this year, went up the mountain to the countryside, started with that hundred mana, collected cheap demon slaying fees, and came to the present step by step.
Today, he has finally scraped together enough 1,000 Wen Bao banknotes, which is 1,000 mana.
The second great thing about the Marketplace is the ability to buy items.
There are a lot of items, all kinds of strange things, but they cost mana to buy, and they are expensive.
The cheapest is the "Lower Grade Dao Heart Pill", which also requires a thousand mana.
At the beginning, Gu Changqing entered the Taiyi Temple to learn the Dao Fa, and through the test, he found that he had no Dao heart.
He doesn't have a Dao heart, which means that no matter how hard he tries to learn the Dao Fa, he can't practice mana.
Therefore, the first problem before him is to gain the heart of the Dao.
Coincidentally, there is a Daoxin sale in the mall.
Although the treasure money can be converted into mana, it is too little.
When Gu Changqing came to this world, he had a pursuit.
So Dao Xin must be bought.
As for the third magic of the mall, it is the lottery.
The bottom half of the mall is the raffle wheel.
The items inside are very expensive and very expensive.
For example, the Spiritual Light Evil Sword worth 100 billion mana, the Heavenly Dao Blue Soul Talisman worth 1 billion mana, the Nine Turns Soul Dementor Pill worth 10 million mana, and the Taishang Forget Worry Dao Recipe worth 100,000 mana.
These four can be said to be superb.
However, these four things are out of reach for Gu Changqing.
Because this lottery requires a hundred mana to draw once, and the wheel has eight scales, four of which are to thank you for participating.
How did Gu Changqing not know that the more precious things were, the more difficult they were to get.
Mana was not easy to come by, and he didn't dare to take this risk.
Now his only thought was to spend a thousand mana to buy the "Lower Grade Dao Heart Pill", and only after obtaining the Dao Heart could he take the Dao Sect Division's exam.
If you pass the exam, you can be consecrated and become a true Taoist priest.
If you become a real Taoist priest, you will have the opportunity to become an official in the court.
If you become an official, you can be promoted through political performance, and if you are promoted, you can be promoted.
It's a regular and safe route to get stronger.
This has been true throughout the ages.
In fact, the reason why he chose to be an official is that Gu Changqing still has a selfish motive.
As the saying goes, get promoted and get rich.
Making a fortune is also a way for him to become stronger.
Because, his money can be turned into mana!
