Chapter 003: The Attitude of the Head of the House
Yunzhou is located in the west of the Shenzhou mainland, which is divided into three ** states, and Yunzhou is one of the inconspicuous states. Each of the three states has a vast land, and ordinary people cannot set foot in a state in their lifetime, which shows that its area is vast and vast.
Since the development of many Xiuzhen sects in Yunzhou, a set of mature and comprehensive methods has gradually formed, and every year of recruitment, the trial site will be arranged in any county of Yunzhou, regardless of size or remoteness.
If Gu Feiyu wants to step into the path of cultivation, he must first get back his due quota, and then pass the county, county, and state exams before he has the qualification to apprentice.
The Xiuzhen Sect in Yunzhou recruits disciples once every five years, requiring them to be over nine years old and under fifteen years old, Gu Feiyu is twelve years old this year, only this one opportunity, if he misses it, even if he has qualifications in the future, the age has already been exceeded.
And some people are born well, they happen to be able to participate in a trial at the age of nine, and they can participate again as long as they are fourteen years old, just like Li Feihong, Gu Feiyu sighed lightly, now that I think about it, my father must have made this plan a long time ago.
Every family with a little reputation in the county, the Xiuzhen Sect will issue a set of Qi Cultivation Methods, so that the disciples in the clan can cultivate from a young age, and when they grow up, they can highlight the disciples with good qualifications, so that they can be easily accepted into the sect.
As one of the three major families in Changshou County, the Gu family naturally will not lack qi refining methods, but Gu Feiyu has never seen the Gu family's qi refining methods since he was a child, and his mother asked his father for it when he was alive, but it seems that his father rejected it on the grounds of his illness.
Gu Feiyu took the remnant of qi refining in his hand that his mother tried her best to help him get, although every family has the qi refining method, but it can only be taught with permission, ordinary people and family servants are not qualified to cultivate, as for where his mother got this fragment, he still doesn't know.
Although it was crippled, it became his only hope at this time.
A month after his mother's death, Gu Feiyu had been cultivating frantically behind closed doors, and in just one month, he had cultivated from an ordinary person with no true qi to a double level of qi refining, which was something that others might not be able to achieve in a year of penance.
It's just that after he cultivated frantically for a month, the adverse reactions of his body appeared, and his body, which was already sick and weak, was even weaker, and became what it is now.
Maybe it was because of the incompleteness of the Qi Refining Method, maybe it was because of his crazy cultivation that caused the demons in his heart, or maybe it was because of his own illness, feeling that his body was even weaker, he finally stopped cultivating.
Cultivating the mind before cultivating the Tao, this is a supreme truth known to the world, which has been passed down since the emergence of cultivation, but many people today ignore the real effect of this sentence, in order to be in a hurry, most people are cultivating the Tao from an early age, but they do not pay much attention to cultivating the mind.
But Gu Feiyu is different, he didn't have a complete Qi refining method since he was a child, he could only cultivate his mind. He read all the books that few people in the family read, especially the Taoist Taoist collection, not only familiar with it and heart, but also tirelessly copied it every day, and over time he completely memorized this huge Taoist classic.
Although he has not cultivated over the years, he has been cultivating his mind, from the initial familiarity with reading a hundred books and copying them to now I don't know how many Taoist collections he has written silently.
On the way to cultivating the truth, he has never lagged behind.
Cultivation is a process of absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world into the body, refining and refining the impurities in it, and transforming the pure spiritual energy into one's own true qi.
Gu Feiyu could clearly feel that the pores on his body surface were all dilated, and the speed of absorbing spiritual energy was very fast, much faster than others, including the speed of refining and transformation that ordinary people could not imagine.
Sure enough, there is a loss, there is a gain, he has had an incurable strange disease since he was a child, but at the same time, it has also brought him an extraordinary cultivation speed, perhaps it is because of the fact that many years of cultivation have finally worked, not only has his current cultivation been smooth, but his own illness has no signs of aggravation.
He faintly understood in his heart that his state of mind had already collapsed when he saw his mother's death, and his crazy cultivation had produced the prototype of his inner demons, but fortunately he suppressed it in time. Now that these problems no longer exist, he can cultivate with confidence.
Gu Feiyu's cultivation lasted for a month, and in addition to eating and sleeping on weekdays, he cultivated cross-legged, and he no longer needed to cultivate his mind, and Dao Zang was in his mind.
Gu Feiyu only felt a bang in his body, as if he had broken through some shackles, the true qi flowed all over the body's muscles and veins, extremely comfortable, and in a month, he cultivated from the second level of qi refining to the third level of qi refining.
If he remembered correctly, Gu Feihong had been cultivating since he was six years old, and he had not cultivated to the fourth level of qi refining until he was now fourteen years old, and it took him eight years.
And he has only cultivated for two months to the third level of qi refining, Gu Feiyu laughed from the bottom of his heart for the first time, there are still two months left, it seems that he should do something more.
looked at Xiao You, who was also cultivating beside him, raised his hand to say hello, hesitated, withdrew his palm, and got out of bed alone.
Gu Feiyu's room had three large boxes, two of which were locked, and one seemed to be used a lot, but it was not locked.
He walked over to the box and opened the lid of the box, which was full of white rice paper with familiar words written on it, and it was almost full.
Looking at the results over the years, Gu Feiyu showed a little smile on his face, walked to the desk and put the last pile of written paper on the desk into it, and the box was just full.
"Young master, why don't you call me when you wake up?" I just happened to do these things" Xiao You also happened to wake up, got out of bed, tidied up his clothes and said.
Gu Feiyu closed the box, he was in a very good mood today, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are cultivating, you have not bothered, and you have cultivated to the first level of qi refining in a month, which is not bad." ”
Xiao You smiled, and said very gratefully: "It's all taught by the young master well, and the young master writes silently on weekdays, and Xiao You also benefits a lot." ”
Gu Feiyu glanced at the three big boxes, his eyes were full of confidence, and said, "Sister Xiaoyou, it's time for us to fight for ourselves, you go and call a few people to carry these three boxes." ”
Although Xiao You didn't understand what he was going to do, he didn't ask, just nodded and agreed.
Xiao You quickly called six people, these three boxes are very large, and they must be lifted by two people together, each page of the paper is very light, but stacked together and put in the box, it is very heavy, and it is a little difficult for two people to lift it.
Gu Feiyu took Xiaoyou and the three boxes and came to a courtyard, which was also in the Gu family, but this courtyard was much more magnificent than the one he lived in.
Gu Feiyu walked to a delicate attic and stopped, and said to the maid in front of the attic: "I am Gu Feiyu, I want to see the head of the family and his old man, please let me know." ”
The maid's face was a little confused, obviously very unfamiliar with him, and looked at him suspiciously and said: "I have been a maid here for five or six years, why don't I know that there is a young master like you? ”
Gu Feiyu frowned slightly, even a little maid spoke so politely, and the little one on the side was angry, and interjected: "Just because you don't know doesn't mean that you don't, not everyone can talk to the young master like this." ”
"You" The maid in the attic was angry, but he didn't dare to go too far, if it was really the young master he didn't know, he would definitely suffer if he was known by the head of the family, and after thinking about it, he turned around and walked in.
After a while, the attic maid walked out again, and this time he looked at him with a much more respectful look, and under the leadership of the maid, Gu Feiyu met the head of the house.
The head of the family looked like he was sixty or seventy years old, this was the first time Gu Feiyu saw him, and he saluted respectfully.
The head of the family's hair has turned about half white, but the whole person still looks very energetic, his eyes are full of wisdom and the vicissitudes of time, he said: "You are the third child of the ancient heavenly family? I heard your father mention it a few days ago, saying that your condition is seriously weak, and now it seems that your expression is okay, and your condition has improved in the past few days?"
Even Gu Feiyu himself was a little surprised by the improvement of his condition, after a month of cultivation, not only did his body not deteriorate, but he eliminated the influence that had been caused by crazy cultivation, although his body was not too good, but it was already a lot stronger.
Gu Feiyu nodded and said: "Yes, my body has indeed improved a lot recently, and I came here today to give three boxes of things to the head of the family, although it is not worth much to outsiders, but for the younger generation, it is the result of growing up, I hope the head of the family will not dislike it." ”
Saying that, Xiao You on the side was also very smart to open the three boxes one by one, which were three boxes of copying and dictation, which was worthless waste paper for outsiders, but I don't know what the head of the family thinks.
Gu Feiyu looked at the old man in front of him, he listened with a smile at first, and then looked at the box he was pointing to with some curiosity, until he saw the box full of papers, and the old man's unchanged gaze froze.
The head of the family stood up and said to the personal maid beside him, "Ah Xue, let's go over and take a look." "Ah Xue is a very beautiful maid, who serves the master of the family all the year round, and has seen a lot of strange gifts, but she is also a little curious when she sees three boxes of paper.
The head of the house took out a few sheets from the box with some thin, wrinkled palms, and looked at them carefully, the writing was very smooth but at the same time very neat, and he could see the young man's intentions from the handwriting one by one.
The head of the family showed a smile on his face and said, "Ah Xue, how do you feel when you see these things?"
Ah Xue looked at the dense paper in her hand and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to write so much in my life, it's really worthless, but for the head of the family"
The head of the family slowly raised his hand to stop her from continuing, looked at Gu Feiyu, and said, "I know the purpose of your coming, you are very good, but everyone has their own life, if you can surpass the second child of the Gu Tian family in two months, I can consider calling the shots for you." ”
