Volume 1 Looking at the Tide of the Sea Chapter 8 Genius of Cultivation
At this time, the sun had risen, Chen Fu practiced the guiding skill, and when the dantian was full of vitality, he practiced Chongxiao Quan several times. Then I cleaned up and looked around for medicinal herbs.
The prime minister's bag that Ran Yun gave him looks like it is only eight inches square and three inches thick, but the space inside is very large, about a hundred times the size of its appearance, and it can hold more than a thousand catties of things. Although Chen Fu didn't distinguish between good and bad, he pulled out the herbs when he saw them, and he couldn't fill half of the bag after four or five days of living in a hurry.
Seeing that the dry food he brought was almost finished, he happened to run into a wild goat that bumped into him. Chen Fu hurriedly tied up a rope and overturned it, dragged it to the water's edge to peel the skin and remove the internal organs, roasted it on the fire, and split it into pieces, he ate half of his legs, and the rest was put into the prime minister's bag, so he lasted for another three or four days.
In this way, Chen Fu discovered another benefit of the prime minister's bag, the barbecue meat contained in it has not been spoiled. He sighed in his heart, this is really a good thing!
These days, every morning when I wake up, the vitality in the dantian is gone. However, as soon as Chen Fu practiced the Guiding Technique, he could always absorb the vitality again, and then continue to practice boxing and refine the meridians. After a few days, he became more proficient in the control of the Qi Rush Fist, and the tolerance of the meridians also increased.
It's just that the medicinal herbs can't fit the prime minister's bag, so Chen Fu had to go down the mountain and go back.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes at home, Chen Fu picked out the best medicinal herbs and packed a large basket and sent them to the Qi family pharmacy, and it was already the time to light up. Qi Li smiled and said, "The medicinal materials picked this time are so good! ”
"It's okay, Mr. Qi, your medical book can save lives and help the wounded, it is priceless, if you can lend it to me, I will be grateful! This medicinal material is not worthy, it is not worthy of ......."
Chen Fu greeted Qi Zhili while apologizing to him in his heart. Qi Zhuli didn't know that Chen Fu still had a lot of medicinal materials at home, but he didn't dare to bring them together, for fear that it would be difficult to explain and involve the prime minister's bag.
On this trip into the mountain, he got 20,000 yuan of dry coins, a prime minister's bag, and one or two low-grade yuan stones, and the harvest was huge. Chen Fu has never seen so much money and such a good treasure when he is so old, he has read the books of sages and sages, and understands the truth that wealth is not exposed, and what can be hidden will never be revealed.
There are also insights such as the Yuan-devouring Intestine Breaking Knife, top-level spirit soldiers, demon pills, runes, etc., which made Chen Fu know a lot about the path of cultivation, and also made him have some longing for the outside world. So the next day, Liang Dengle came to him, saying that he was on a break from school, and asked Chen Fu to accompany him to Bipu County, and Chen Fu happily agreed.
I walked fifteen miles north along the official street, got on the official road, and then walked dozens of miles to the east, and arrived at Bipu County, which was noon. The two walked around the temple fair for a while, Liang Dengle bought books, paper and pens and some rare playthings, the two were about to sit down to eat, and suddenly saw a lot of people around the Taoist temple in front of them, I don't know what they were doing, the two hurriedly squeezed over.
Pushing aside the crowd and squeezing to the front, the two saw a long gray stele erected in the open space in front of the temple gate, with a square base below, and they didn't know what material it was. There was a table next to it, behind which sat a man taking notes, and another person standing, staring at the monument.
At this time, there were a few people in front of the stele, and the person in front of him put on a posture, and slammed his right hand at the stele, only to see that the stele started to light up from the lowest end with a string of red lights, constantly flickering......
"Uncle, what are you doing here?" Liang Dengle asked a sturdy man next to him. The man looked down at Liang Dengle and chatted with them.
It turned out that the first emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty admired the Tao very much, and after he ascended the throne, he gave a lot of support to the monks, making there many people who were keen on the Tao in the world.
At the beginning, no matter what family in the world, as long as there was a half-child, they all flocked to the back door, sent to hearsay and other sects to cultivate, and learned some tricks such as "taking things from the air" and "opening their mouths to breathe fire".
And the world's large and small sects are also like mushrooms after a rain all over the mountains and wild crazy growth, it is said that when the most prosperous, a county of land sects are numerous, as many as twenty or thirty. If you buy a dilapidated so-called "invincible" exercise from a stall, you dare to recruit people and make money under the banner of monasticism.
At that time, there were more people refining qi than farming, and there were more people refining pills than cooking rice, and even for several years, there were no serious students, so that the charlatans swaggered everywhere. Even those bandits looked red, and then changed the names of what were originally called "Black Dragon Village" and "White Tiger Gang" to "Feiyun Sect" and "Chaolumen", and then performed some "magic skills" such as "Qingping Water Flying" with wooden stakes underwater, which made passers-by stunned for a moment, and they paid money to worship the "Mountain Gate".
The first emperor was forced to have no choice but to set up a "Daolu Academy", which was directly supervised by Honglu Temple, and invited several genuine real people to sit in charge. It is stipulated that in the future, large and small sects must be reported to the Taoist Academy to verify the authenticity and issue iron coupons before recruiting disciples, and private sects are prohibited.
However, if the territory of a large country is criss-crossed, tens of thousands of miles long from east to west, and hundreds of heavy mountains from north to south, how can it be possible to prohibit it? The imperial court can't even clear the way robbery and abduction, so how can it care if the sect can recruit disciples or not!
The real sect doesn't take the emperor Lao'er in his eyes at all, what should he do, the weak-hearted charlatans have somewhat converged a little, but the convergence is limited, what iron coupons are not iron coupons, and it is not that no one can imitate them privately.
The first emperor had no choice but to upgrade the Daolu Academy to the Imperial Court Zheng'er Eight Classics Department, and set up a set of institutions from top to bottom, with the local state capital placing the Daoist Division, and the county below the state capital placing the Taoist Division, each with a number of official positions in charge of the affairs of the cultivators. I also asked the real people sitting in the town to draw up a set of testing methods for the realm of cultivation, and cultivators from all over the world, regardless of whether they were masters or disciples, must go to the subordinate department of the local Taoist Academy to test it, measure the level, and record it. In order to attract the enthusiasm of the monks to participate in the test, it was also stipulated that there were certain rewards for both new monks and those who were promoted, and they could be included in the list of candidates for military service.
After a protracted process of testing, promulgation, and banning, the painstaking efforts of the first emperor were not in vain, and a large number of charlatans were unearthed, and most of the monastic fire in the world was extinguished. In addition, I haven't heard of anyone who has cultivated into a fairy, and after a long time, everyone will farm the land, cook rice, and don't do daydreaming.
Now that the Holy One has ascended the throne, this set of rules has continued. And because there are fewer and fewer cultivators, the test is gradually changed from the original daily test to the end of the month, that is, once on the 25th of every month. What is going on on the field is the test of the realm of cultivators by the county Taoist priest.
The sturdy man explained humorously, and then encouraged: "The two little immortals also sign up for the test, and the new ones will be rewarded with 100 yuan dry coins." ”
"Xiao Fu, you go and try it, if you pass, it's a hundred yuan!" Liang Dengle poked Chen Fu with his elbow, and also coaxed the strong man.
"One hundred yuan ......" Chen Fu was a little moved. He used to earn only 100 yuan per trip to the mountain, but he usually went into the mountain four times a month to earn 400 yuan, and he had to spend 300 yuan a month. If you stop eating in the rainy season, you can only eat the old book, and you haven't saved any money in a year. Fortunately, his father still has some family funds, so the young man's heart is not so panicked. Although the harvest of this mountain is not small, but it can't stand the flowers, and the more you save it, the more you will be more down-to-earth.
"I'm a little worried......" Chen Fu hesitated, not because he was afraid that he wouldn't get through, but because he was worried about his situation. Now I wake up every morning and my vitality is gone, and if it keeps going like this, then it might as well be left alone.
"What's there to worry about, why don't you earn money if you have money! I'll sign up with you, in case I pass it." Liang Dengle pulled Chen Fu to the table hard, but Chen Fu didn't have to refuse.
The two came to the table, Liang Dengle shouted that he wanted to sign up, and the person who recorded them asked for their address, name and birthday, and asked them to report to the sect.
"Family heirloom. Both replied.
The man told them the rules, how to punch, what to hit, and so on, and told them to wait at the back of the line.
It turns out that this monument does not measure the size of brute force, but the impact of vitality. It is necessary to burst out of the body and hit the monument before the red light will light up.
At this moment, Liang Dengle's wishful thinking failed, although he blushed and hit two punches in a row, the monument was still gray. The person who stared at the monument next to him sang: "Liang Dengle of Linhai Village, twelve years old, family tradition, no level. ”
Liang Dengle slipped into the crowd in a huff.
Chen Fu stepped forward, urged the vitality, and punched suddenly, and the vitality of the "bang" broke through the air and hit the monument. The lowest end of the monument lit up with a little red light, flickering bright and dim, Chen Fu was worried about whether the red light would go out, only to hear the man sing again: "Chen Fu of Linhai Village, eleven years old, family exercises, a layer of Ming Yuan Realm, the first heavy." ”
Chen Fu thought shyly, this must be the worst level, fortunately, the red light was not extinguished! Hurriedly asked Liang Dengle to go to the table to get the money.
"The money will be distributed to the village, and you will find the village chief to collect it in three days. This is to prevent people from wandering around to take the test, falsely reporting the names of locals, and receiving money repeatedly. The man said.
At this time, there was an uproar in the venue, and people pointed to Chen Fu and discussed:
"This kid is eleven years old and is in the Ming Yuan Realm, it's amazing!"
"Ordinary people only enter the Ming Yuan Realm after cultivating for about five years, that young man won't be able to cultivate at the age of six or seven, what a prodigy!"
"How can you cultivate at such a young age of six or seven? You can practice at least ten years old, this kid will enter the Ming Yuan Realm in a year, he is really a genius of cultivation!"
......
Public opinion has shifted from praising the genius boy to digging out his teacher's origins, and many people shouted:
"Who is your master? My child is ten years old, is it okay to want him to worship your master as a teacher?"
"His master must be a master of Taoism, otherwise he wouldn't be able to teach such a powerful prodigy. ”
"There is an old fairy in Linhai Village!"
......
Chen Fu didn't expect that this matter would also implicate Grandpa Song, so he was a little weak-hearted, so he hurriedly pulled Liang Dengle and ran away.
Starting the next day, people led the children to Linhai Village one after another to inquire who Master Chen Fu was, where his home was, and how to learn from the old immortals.
"The Chen family Xiaofu just eats my bean sprouts every day, so powerful, you often come to buy them for your children, and Bao Zhun has become a genius. Aunt Tie hurriedly solicited business.
"I'm looking for Lao Song, he's been at sea for a year and he's not at home. Qi Li replied lightly.
"Old fairy? He is an old fisherman begging for the sea! A lot of people in our village go out to sea to fish and go up the mountains to hunt, who doesn't have the ability to strengthen their bodies! Come on, come on, learn from me. The apprenticeship ceremony is exempted, and you can pay 500 yuan per month for tuition, including food and accommodation. "There are also villagers who treat each other warmly, and it is very noisy for a while.
I can't find anyone, there is no way to apprentice, and there are fewer people coming.
