Apprentice
"What??, village chief, you're not kidding, are you?" Zhang Yuan said with a panicked expression.
"Boy, is it difficult for you to worship me as a teacher? Besides, my son Wang Zhen and Wang Dong have already worshiped under my door. The pride and pride in the village chief's tone were almost solidified into words.
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times, according to the tradition of the immortal cultivation world, the master should have an entry gift for the disciple at this time, but the village chief at this time sat on the chair with a smile, the more he looked at this disciple, the happier he became, and forgot to give a gift, and Zhang Yuan didn't know that there was such a rule in the immortal cultivation world, so he didn't open his mouth to ask for a gift.
The village chief laughed for a while, and then said slowly: "Well, you get up, you will be the third disciple of the old man in the future, Dao number, you can not decide for yourself until you have Jindan." The village chief saw Zhang Yuan's face full of doubts, so he said: "If you have any questions, you can ask them all, and I will tell you if you can answer them." ”
"Master, I actually don't know anything about cultivating immortals, can you tell me? Also, why did you appear in Xiaozhou Village and become the village chief? Finally, what is your Dao name? Zhang Yuan asked all his questions, and because Chaos often said that he would never be able to see his true cultivation under the golden pill, but now the village chief in front of him said a word.
"Oh, this is easy, about the knowledge of cultivating immortals, I will tell you slowly, my Taoist number will be by the way old man, as for why I am here, it is because I am tired of the cultivation of immortals in the world of deceit, bloody and bloody, and I am also old, plus I have a good son Wang Zhen, his mother is also an immortal cultivator, but she lost her life in a treasure hunt, so I took Brother Wang to this place to retreat. ”
By the way, it is to follow the way of heaven, find a place, follow the way of heaven, and finally return to old age. When you are old, you are not old in age, but you are old in heart, and you don't have that kind of ambition. There's no need for that kind of ** to improve cultivation.
Listening to the village chief talk about the experience that was not detailed, Zhang Yuan also experienced some cruelty in the immortal cultivation world.
"Stone, I can be regarded as watching you grow up, I think your kid's character is still good, join my disciple, I won't restrict you too much, because my cultivation concept is to conform to the way of heaven, and the way of heaven is natural. ”
Zhang Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "Master, can you tell me about cultivating immortals?"
"Okay, no problem, it's good that you have to be serious. Cultivation is to make the impossible possible, to comprehend the way of heaven, to strengthen oneself through the way of heaven, to contain the aura between heaven and earth, and to reach the point where the heavens and the earth can be changed. Immortal cultivators can probably be divided into the primary introductory qi training period, small achievements to build a foundation, sharp edge to reveal the golden pill, open the mountain and open the land of the primordial infant, deep hidden and not exposed to the spirit, it is said that there are above the spirit, but I know so much. ”
"Master, what is the refining pulse before Qi training?"
"That's not considered to be cultivating immortals, it can only be regarded as forging the body, there are many sects on this continent, and those sects with a slightly better background will take pills and accompany the elixir bubble body when they are young, and it will not take the slightest effort to reach the final stage of refining the veins, and then after taking a Qi Drawing Pill, you can enter the Qi refining period without hindrance and start real cultivation. But how is this the right way, my Dao number is the old man of the way, it is because I advocate conforming to the way of heaven, step by step, with my own efforts, to break through the difficulties of cultivating immortals one by one, this is the right way, so Zhen'er and Xiaodong I didn't help them directly open up all the meridians, I believe you also have questions, why Zhen'er started to cultivate at such a young age, it is because this child knows that his mother is because of this death, has been unwilling to cultivate, and has resistance to cultivation. Hey, that's my fault. ”
"Master, you don't need to blame yourself, I think Brother Wang must have cheered up now. ”
"Yes, this is also a blessing to you, it is your death, oh, your disappearance has inspired his ambition, although I don't want my child to be involved in the ups and downs of the immortal cultivation world, but since I have chosen, I have to do it better, even if I can't dominate one side, I have to gain something, it's far away, then again, you haven't practiced the cultivation method above the qi, I'll give it to you now, you have to remember to be diligent in cultivation, even if you have a good talent, if you don't cultivate more, you still haven't made any progress, and finally become a white bone in the immortal cultivation world. However, before cultivating, I have to help you familiarize yourself with the strength of your body first, otherwise you won't be able to control it when you cultivate, and your true qi will run wild, and the consequences will be serious. ”
"Then Master, what am I going to do, I washed in the creek all night, and I feel pretty good,"
"Come with me, I've got you covered. ”
Zhang Yuan walked to the courtyard outside under the leadership of the village chief's master, and the three huge rocks in front of him made Zhang Yuan dumbfounded.
"Originally, if it wasn't in the west, a place full of deserts, there would be many ways for you to adapt to yourself, but now you can't do it, you go and split the stones, split them into two, all of them will be broken into palm-sized small stones, and after splitting, you will run around the village with the remaining piece, and it should be about the same for two or three days. ”
"Master, you won't trick me, will you? How long will it take to split a stone?"
"Hmph, I don't care how long you want to chop, you have to chop anyway, if you dare to be lazy, you won't have lunch. Also, I'll go and talk to him about your dad myself. Now, let's get started. ”
As a result, Zhang Yuan opened a road that has never been seen before, and there should be no one in the future - splitting stones.
Every time a five- or six-year-old village boy in the village walks in front of the village chief's door, he will laugh at the fool who is splitting stones, and those rocks don't know where the village chief found them, they are extremely hard, harder than ordinary stones, and the mallet used to split them doesn't know what material it is, one is equivalent to three or four ordinary, and it is hard to split an immortal cultivator who practices qi to death or live.
Seven days later.
"Master, come out and take a look, is this qualified?" Zhang Yuan ran to the door of the house with tears in his eyes, shouting and moving.
"Well, I'll take a look. The village chief, Master, walked out slowly, looked at the broken stones on the ground, and nodded with satisfaction.
"It's not bad, now you can lift that stone and run around the village, just run for three days, and then Zhen'er should come back if he still has a small movement. When the time comes, I will give you the real immortal cultivation method together. ”
Hearing the news that Brother Wang and Wang Dong were about to come back, Zhang Yuan became high-spirited again, lifted the big stone and began to run out.
So a new round of ridicule began, and it became the talk of everyone in the village after dinner, all discussing whether Dr. Zhang's son was not dead, but he became delirious, and the children were warned not to get too close to Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan couldn't cry or laugh, and he couldn't speak clearly.
One morning three days later, Zhang Yuan was finishing his last run, and just as he was about to start, Wang Zhen and Wang Dong returned.
Wang Zhen and Wang Dong, who approached, looked like they had seen a ghost, their faces were full of incredulity, Wang Zhen and Wang Dong put down the kettle in their hands, as well as the package, and rushed towards Zhang Yuan.
The excited Wang Dong left a man in tears, grew his arms, and hugged Zhang Yuan, who was still holding the big rock, into his arms. Wang Dong wanted to pick Zhang Yuan up, but because Zhang Yuan hadn't put down the rock yet, he poured into it with all his might, and his face was flushed. Wang Zhen was amused to laugh behind them, no, no.
A comical scene, a bear-like figure holding a swarthy and sturdy, swarthy and sturdy holding a big rock, what is this?
When the three of them calmed down, Zhang Yuan finally remembered what he was going to do.
"Stone, you mean you came back ten days ago, so what were you doing in the last three months?" asked Wang Dong humbly.
Zhang Yuan lifted the rock and ran away, shouting as he ran: "You go back to the village chief first, now the village chief is also my master, I will go back to find you after I run, and we will talk slowly when the time comes." "Only a figure full of mystery is left for the two.
Zhang Yuan finally completed the task assigned by the village chief, and ran back to the village chief's residence after throwing the stone away, after ten days of inhumane training, Zhang Yuan has been able to perfectly grasp the strength in his body, of course, he can't say that he knows how to use the power, that is the path of physical cultivation, stop here, and will encounter it in the years to come.
When Zhang Yuan returned to the village residence, Wang Zhen and Wang Dong had already made a sumptuous lunch, and when Zhang Yuan came back, Zhang Yuan saw the dishes in front of him, and he was also moved. But just as Zhang Yuan was about to eat, the village chief faked a cough.
Zhang Yuan immediately knew what his master meant. So he shouted respectfully: "Master, senior brother, second senior brother eat." ”
Wang Zhen and Wang Dongxiao's tears came out, and the village chief nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you can eat." ”
Master just likes this set of red tape, Zhang Yuan muttered secretly. However, the four of them still ate the first one, a simple meal.
It is also in line with the village chief's proposition, by the way, in line with the way of heaven, and looking for a way to survive under the ruthless way of heaven.
After lunch, the old man, who was the village chief, took great pains to take the three of them to a small secret room that none of the three of them had entered, nor had they known.
"The three of you are now in addition to Wang Dong is still refining the veins, Zhen'er and the stone have also been in the Qi cultivation period, so I will pass on to you the cultivation method of our ancestor here, our ancestor master, can be a ghost talent at that time, but I don't know what reason it fell, so we began to age in the ancient period, until now, there are only a few of us left. So I won't restrict your freedom, you can join other sects, but you always have to remember that I am also your master, now, I will pass on the exercises to you, if you go to other sects in the future and feel that their exercises are more suitable for you, you can also change cultivation, which is why our ancestor is a ghost. ”
"Our exercises, soft as water, steel like iron, can be integrated with all kinds of exercises, merge, there will be no danger of conflict, this is also the reason why we conform to the way of heaven, because everything is the embodiment of the way of heaven, this is a sentence that our ancestors have been handed down, you must remember. ”
"Hug Yuan Shouyi, immerse your mind in your sea of knowledge, the exercises will be directly imprinted in your sea of knowledge, and the Lingtai is some super magic weapon, or the magic weapon that can directly attack the soul will stay on it, of course, the more important use of the Lingtai is the place where the golden pill is placed and has broken the pill into a baby, so the Lingtai and the sea of knowledge, the people who cultivate immortals are indispensable. There will be a little bit of pain at the time of branding, you have to hold back, and now it begins. ”
If there is a friendship that can last forever, it is brotherhood, a brother for life, a knife for the two ribs of the brother, and the legend has begun to be born at this time.
