Chapter 15: Questions and Answers in the Garden
At the family banquet, Lin Du met his father in this world, and he looked like his father who he had not seen many times in the other world, just as his two mothers were similar. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This made him feel confused about the world again, and he felt as if his family had been copied and put here, but with a different identity and life. His "replica" was lost for some reason, and he was moved to fill the vacant place in the family, which is a substitute and different from a substitute in the ordinary sense. He was a little confused about who he was.
Of course, this father has his unique aura, although he talks and laughs freely, is elegant and handsome, approachable, and does not have any cold and solemn princely style, but he will always give people a sense of momentum and self-authority, but this majesty will be respected rather than feared. He is not there, the family banquet is a family casually meet to have a meal, three or three, eat and chat; he is here, the family banquet has become a real banquet for the cohesion of the family, everyone will involuntarily surround him, listen to him talk about some interesting stories about the geography of mountains and rivers, insects, fish, birds and beasts, talk about some family affairs closely related to the wife and children, laughter, and happiness.
No lady specifically told the child to be quiet and well-behaved, but even the youngest Lin Xi stopped making noise, and only sat next to the fourth lady and looked at his father with a pair of big eyes, listening to him say something that seemed to be understood or not, and giggling when he saw everyone laughing. This is the princely demeanor, the charisma of the leader, although this Huaiqing marquis is almost the prince with the fewest fiefdoms, and he is cowering in a remote place in the Bohai Sea.
The Great Zhou Empire has been inherited for more than 3,000 years, after more than a dozen major wars and changes in the middle, the Zhou royal family was restructured and called the emperor, although the system of feudal division of the princes has not changed, but each war is accompanied by the change of the pattern of the princes and the redivision of the fief, the old princes have declined, and the new princes have risen. The Dongting Lin clan is an inconspicuous emerging prince, the fief of Dongting County is adjacent to the Bohai Sea, almost all of them are flat rivers, star beasts are scarce, and cultivation resources are scarce, making it difficult to attract middle and upper-class cultivators to stay. If it weren't for the stable bloodline of the Lin family, the strength of the clan, and the awesome in-laws of several families, I am afraid that they would have been attacked and eaten up by the surrounding counties long ago.
The Marquis of Huaiqing is a country in the county. A few generations ago, the Lin family set up immortal military exploits, and the feudal marquis was naturally not a problem, thinking that he could open another fief, but the Zhou Emperor issued an edict to seal the Huaiqing Marquis, and actually divided the three counties of Linhai in Dongting County into fiefs. There are more than 80 counties in the county, and it is harmless to divide out only three counties, and it is even more glorious to have a double marquis, but the Lin family has since divided into two forces. In order to avoid suspicion, Lin Fengshan simply entrusted the fief to the Dongting Marquis to govern, and he hunted the star beasts in Yungui for many years, focusing on cultivation, and the wives in the family were only responsible for taking care of some industries and ushering in the miscellaneous things that were sent to him, and he no longer participated in political affairs.
In the past few years, this projectile county country has also been in name only, Lin Fengshan has changed from the smallest prince in the empire to only a virtual title, and the embarrassment of his status is self-evident, but his princely bearing is still better than back then.
Lin Du likes this father a little, but he just thinks that this is the real big man, he doesn't put pressure on you, and you naturally respect him. But there was one thing that made him unhappy, from beginning to end, his father didn't mention Lin Hao's murder again, and he didn't accuse Lin Hao of saying a word, as if nothing had happened, and he was still kind to Lin Hao like other children. This made Lin Du feel that Sister Liu'er seemed to have died in vain, and her father didn't care about the little girl's life at all. And Lin Hao, who was about to be "dispatched" to a dangerous place, did not look like suffering at all, and secretly glared at him during the banquet, full of the virtue of "what can you do with me". Lin Dui's mood suddenly fell to the extreme.
It was Lin Peixuan and Lin Peili who were quietly looking at him, with worries and concerns in their expressions. He probably knew that he was sick, so his sister and sister were worried about their bodies. He caught the other person's gaze and smiled back, and then his sister gave him a trademark white eye, and his sister quickly lowered her head like a thief who had been caught, picked up the bowl and poured half a bowl of spicy soup, then turned around and patted her throat and coughed incessantly.
After the family banquet, Lin Fengshan proposed to take a walk together, so the whole family of twelve people entered the back garden. The ladies knew that he had the idea of taking the school children's homework by the way, so they let Lin Fengshan and Lin Hao, Lin Duan, Lin Yi, Lin Peixuan, and Lin Peili walk in front, and the four ladies and Peiyu and Lin Xi deliberately followed behind a few steps behind. After not taking a few steps, Lin Fengshan suddenly asked Lin Hao, "Xiao Hao, what progress has you made in your cultivation in the past six months?"
Lin Hao stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Four months ago, Gu Xing had broken through the second rotation, and Mars had also broken through the first rotation. ”
Lin Fengshan stopped and turned around: "Open the Star Mansion and let me take a look." ”
Lin Hao responded, stood still, returned the star power around his body into the Star Mansion, and then exhaled and released, a black disc appeared out of thin air around the front of the heart, occupying the lower half of the chest and the upper half of the abdomen, looking like a deep universe, but this universe does not have so many shining stars, only two star spots, one green and one green and one green, are dotted in the darkness. The green is the valley star, the color is relatively bright, and there are two circles of green starlight vortices around it, during which there are constantly mysterious light patterns flowing and changing. The red color is Mars, which is slightly darker, and there is also a circle of starlight swirls that have taken shape.
The rest of the children also gathered around curiously, and Lin Duan felt even more curious, this was the first time he had seen the cultivator's open Star Mansion, and finally had an intuitive understanding of the Star Mansion, and also saw what the Second Spiral Valley Star looked like. The so-called two spins mean that the whirlpool reaches two circles, and there is no whirlpool when a star starts to cultivate, and the more circles of the whirlpool, the higher the cultivation level and the more abundant star power. Of course, the further you cultivate, the more difficult it will be to form more layers of vortexes.
But he had actually seen such a star mansion. In that dazed dream, after he flew into the black vortex, he also saw a small patch of colorful starry sky, where the stars were surrounded by similar swirls of light. It's just that he doesn't know if it's a star mansion or not, if it is, whose star mansion is it? If I'm not mistaken, there are seven bright stars there, which is much bigger than Lin Hao's star mansion. Lin Hao only lit two in three years, and he didn't know what year or month he would have to repair seven.
Of course, cultivation is not about lighting up the stars, the better, Mr. Ji mentioned a kind of "life star" cultivation. Cultivation pays the most attention to the unity of heaven and man, people are like the soil for planetary seeds to breed, each person as a fixed piece of soil, there is always a star that is most suitable for breeding here, and cultivating this star will get twice the result with half the effort. Most children who have a little success in their cultivation will find the star that best fits their physique and personality as their main cultivation goal, which is the so-called "destiny star". Specializing in the cultivation of life stars, the improvement of its spin level will be very fast, and a person's cultivation level is measured by the highest spin level of the cultivated star, which means that the strength he has mastered is strong or weak, take the battle as an example, a person who has cultivated ten stars and each star is a spin, and he cannot fight against a person who only has a three-spin star, the former is just more star power attributes, but the strength is too bad, I am afraid that even the latter's blow can not be resisted.
Lin Dui was thinking back to the starry sky he had seen in his dream and the strange words he had heard, Lin Fengshan was already asking Lin Hao about his life star: "Xiao Hao, which star do you think can be your life star?"
Is this considered school homework? Lin Hao was caught off guard, scratched his ears and cheeks and thought for a while, and finally said: "Whichever one my father says to use, I will use whichever one I want." ”
Lin Fengshan frowned and turned to the rest of the children: "What do you think?"
This question is not simple, it examines the understanding of the natal planet, and the insight and grasp of the temperament of others. Lin Du instinctively thought of Mars, but before he could speak, he heard Lin Yi say loudly: "Jupiter!"
Lin Fengshan glanced at Lin Yi with interest: "Xiao Yi, let's talk about it, why Jupiter?"
Lin Yi shook his head and replied: "Because the third brother is lazy, he often finds someone to write his homework for him, Jupiter is very lazy, and the so-called star of help always hopes for the help of others, and good luck falls from the sky." If you don't do your homework, you always run around and play, and you never obey control, so the third brother likes freedom, and Jupiter is the star of freedom, so only Jupiter is the most compatible with the third brother. Mr. Kong said, in line with its fate and its nature, the fate of the stars, I don't hear of those who go against the sky and attain the Tao, it is the spirit that bears the light, the stars shine on the earth, and the reverse is back, and you must not ignore it. ...... Third brother, why are you glaring at me?"
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he looked at Lin Hao who gritted his teeth stupidly. The rest of the children wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so they had to bow their heads and endure it. Although Lin Yi is analyzing the problem, it is the same as beating Lin Hao's small report, but he himself has no idea, and he has to pretend to be knowledgeable, how can he not make people laugh?
Lin Fengshan turned his head to look at Lin Hao, frowned, but didn't say anything, and then turned his eyes to Lin Peixuan: "Xiao Xuan, what do you think?"
Lin Peixuan bowed to her father in a proper manner, lowered her head and replied, "My daughter thinks that the third brother should choose Mars." ”
She didn't say the reason, and Lin Fengshan didn't ask, she just nodded approvingly, and glanced at Lin Hao again: "Just according to what Xiao Xuan said, let's make Mars the life star." Later, when I went to Xiliu County, there was Ling to follow the evil, and I must practice hard, and I must no longer be greedy for fun. ”
Lin Hao answered honestly, and Lin Fengshan continued to walk along the garden path, asking a few children behind him as he walked: "Have you finished learning the basic Chinese characters?"
Lin Yi replied first: "No." Lin Peixuan and Lin Du replied, "I'm done." Lin Peili walked at the end and did not say a word.
Lin Fengshan stopped again, his eyes swept over the faces of several children, and finally stopped on Lin Dui's face, and said with a faint smile: "Xiaodui, I heard Mr. Ji say that you learn your characters quickly, and you have read a lot of books recently, what books have you read?"
Lin Du didn't expect his father to pay so much attention to him, thought for a while and said: "I used to read some simple books on literature and history, and I went to the library two days ago to borrow a few books about flower essences. ”
"Not bad. Lin Fengshan smiled again and said, "The plants and trees absorb the brilliance of the sun, moon and planets all year round, and their flowers and fruits are where they condense their own essence, and their juice is very beneficial to cultivation, but unfortunately ordinary means cannot absorb the origin of star power in it, so we have to rely on flower essence and herbs." However, flowers and plants have different star natures, and only by understanding star nature can we use them correctly. ”
Lin Fengshan said, walking towards a nearby flower field. In the flower field, the green leaves and red flowers are blooming brilliantly, and the huge flowers that are as red as blood reflect a bewitching spectacle. Lin Fengshan picked a blooming red flower, shook it in his hand, and said: "This flower is called Broken Intestine Grass, also called Poppy, the flowers are extremely bright, intoxicating, the fruit can relieve pain and hypnosis, invigorate the spirit, use it once makes people want to use it again, it is very addictive, but it is very harmful to the body if you use it too much." Twilight, look, what is its star nature?"
Lin Du listened to his question, looked at the gorgeous and charming flower field, and naturally remembered opium. He knew that opium from the other world was a famous drug, but he didn't know that this flower was the source of opium. He immediately blurted out: "Anything that is addictive, poisoning, and confusing is Neptune." ”
Lin Fengshan nodded, and said with a slight smile in the face of the five children: "I came back from the south this time, also because I got an amazing medicinal herb, called Tongming Grass, this grass contains the purest Jupiter origin power, use it as a medicinal guide, take seven hundred and forty-nine kinds of herbs and boil them, and finally make a Tongming pill, which can make your Star Mansion break through the growth boundary, and you can still continue to grow within two years after practicing in advance." Do any of you want to practice in advance?"
As soon as Lin Fengshan spoke, the children's eyes immediately lit up, and even Lin Peili, who had been bowing her head and not saying a word, as if she was sleepwalking, couldn't help but raise her little face, full of surprise. Being able to practice two years earlier without losing your potential means that even if you go to a school with a lot of talents, you will have a great advantage in your age group. The extra two years of cultivation time in vain are of immeasurable value.
Lin Peixuan instantly remembered her mother's words last night, and then she suddenly understood why her mother said that whether she could practice in advance depended on her father's decision, it turned out that it was because of the Tongming Pill! That is to say, she could practice if she took the Tongming Pill, and if she couldn't get it, her mother would not allow it. However, there was only one such one, what if others wanted it too?
Lin Dui's face was quite calm. He also wanted this Tongming Pill very much, although the qualification he measured was one thousand, and it was impossible for him to grow again, but this qualification was actually only for Gu Xing. Gu Xing is the gate of cultivation, and this qualification determines the overall cultivation prospects, but other planets other than Gu Xing also have their own qualifications, which will be related to the cultivation speed of each specific star, and they also need to grow, so he also needs this Tongming pill. But I only promised my mother last night that I couldn't tell others about practicing in advance, wouldn't taking this pill be tantamount to making it public?
Lin Fengshan's words naturally attracted the attention of several ladies. The second lady Bian Suxin looked calm, as if she didn't care about it at all. The third lady, Jin Luohua, just glanced at this side lightly, and then her eyes fell on Lin Duan, and she couldn't see any expression on her face. The fourth lady Qu Wanyun was a little stunned, obviously she didn't expect her husband to take out such a big killing weapon, as if she wanted to say something, but she hesitated and stopped. Only the eldest lady Yue Lingshuang stepped forward very calmly and calmly, and said to Lin Fengshan: "I think it is better to give it to Xiao Xuan, this child is anxious to practice, and his qualifications are better than others." ”
"Oh?" Lin Fengshan was stunned: "Xiao Xuan has tested his qualifications, how many?"
"The day before yesterday, I tested it with a magic array in the library building, and the qualification was 803. Although Yue Lingshuang's voice was flat, there was pride on her face that could not be hidden.
This is something to be proud of. An eight-year-old girl, with qualifications and room for growth, is already first-class, and there may not be such a person among millions of people, in the Lin family, who is the first to practice, this is a symbol of status, and you can generously ask all your cultivation resources to be tilted towards you, and no one will say anything.
The stunned on the face of the fourth lady Qu Wanyun was even stronger, and the third lady Jin Luohua couldn't help but glance at Lin Peixuan, but soon set her eyes on Lin Duan. And Lin Peili also looked at her sister in great surprise.
Lin Fengshan's face was solemn, he immediately took a step forward, squatted down and stretched out his right hand, gently pressed it on the upper part of Lin Peixuan's lower abdomen, and spit out a strong green valley star power from his palm and entered his daughter's star mansion. Only a person with excellent cultivation like him can conduct qualification exploration in this way, using star power to attract the resonance of the other party's Gu Xing, and the resonant Gu Xing will reflect part of the star power back, and the more it is reflected, the higher the qualification will be. After a moment, he received a reflected star power, which seemed to be only one-fifth weaker than the input star power, which meant that Lin Peixuan had indeed reached the first-class qualification.
Lin Fengshan stood up, his face flushed, and he was obviously very excited: "Okay! It is indeed a first-class qualification, worthy of being my Lin Fengshan's daughter! I will personally assign a teacher to teach you to practice, and this Tongming Pill is also yours!"
The eldest lady Yue Lingshuang was also overjoyed, feeling that this time she was really raising her eyebrows in front of the other two ladies, and hurriedly took her daughter's hand and urged: "Don't you thank your father soon?"
To everyone's surprise, Lin Peixuan suddenly shook off her mother's hand and said, "No!
Then she stubbornly raised her face and met her mother's puzzled and blaming gaze: "My father gave me Tongming Pill because he thought my qualifications were good, but my qualifications are not as good as others, how can I ask for them!"
"What did you say?" the eldest lady could not accept her daughter's words. Is there a better qualification than a daughter? How is this possible? There is a first-class qualification among the other three children? What are you kidding? Is a first-class qualification a cabbage?
Everyone was also stunned on the spot, only Lin Dui guessed what the young lady was going to say, but it was too late to stop it. I saw Lin Peixuan pointing at Lin Du with his hand, and said to his father: "My brother's qualification is one thousand, much better than me, Tongming Pill should be given to him!" (To be continued.) )
