Chapter 40: Money can open doors for imps
“Moochunniu, spring...”
Spring is naturally not an attribute.
But Zhou Qing practiced the Xiantian Neijing Diagram. Among them, there are three passes on the spine: Weilu Pass, Jiaji Pass, and Yuzhen Pass. However, these three important passes are already clear, so there is no need to worry.
What he noticed was that the adult spine has twenty-six segments.
Putting aside the two bones of the sacral vertebrae at the end, the remaining cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, and lumbar vertebrae, together, are exactly twenty-four, representing the twenty-fourth level of the road to heaven, and can also correspond to the twenty-four solar terms.
Therefore, after Zhou Qing saw Mo Chun Niu, he had another idea, that is, while the first four soul rings contained the four elements of earth, water, wind and fire, they could also include spring, summer, and autumn. , winter, the four seasons rotate.
In the Xiantian Nei Jing Diagram, if you want to create an inner world, the rotation of the four seasons is essential, and the spine runs through the human body, with twenty-four bones corresponding to the twenty-four solar terms, which will definitely reduce the burden of future practice. Lots of trouble.
"Sure enough, the more basic your training is, the more prepared you will be, laying a solid foundation." Zhou Qing wrote down Mo Chunniu as his candidate for the first soul ring in the future.
After all, the books related to soul beasts that he is currently exposed to are too rare. It is better to wait until he enters Notting College, browse through them in the library, and then consider them in more detail...
The second day.
Old Jack found Zhou Qing, his face full of decadence.
【Failed? 】
Zhou Qing immediately understood that Old Jack had not obtained a quota for another working-study student from another village, and said: "Grandpa Old Jack, you don't have to worry, my family still has some savings, but it's just for a working-study student." It’s just a quota, I can be a formal student.”
“Hey, the cost in the city is huge.” Old Jack felt a little sorry for Zhou Qing and could only complain, “The other six villages have a shared quota. I gave it to a little girl, and she was actually born with full soul power, as well as a beast martial soul and a soft-bone rabbit..."
Xiao Wu?
Zhou Qing was stunned. He didn't expect that Xiao Wu actually occupied the quota of work-study students shared by the other six villages within a few dozen miles of Shenghun Village.
But when I think about it carefully, it seems reasonable.
After all, Xiao Wu is the incarnation of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, and has no identity as a normal human being. In the original work, she went to Notting Junior Soul Master Academy as a work-study student, so the identity of the work-study student must not be hers. What a lie. Without proof of the opening of the Spirit Hall, Xiao Wu wouldn't even be able to enter the academy. With Xiao Wu's temper in the original novel, it would be impossible to climb over the wall, and there would be a high probability of quarreling with the concierge.
"Grandpa Jack, don't worry, I can make money while I'm studying." Zhou Qing is not worried about money. You know, the legacy left by Soul Saint alone is three hundred gold soul coins. More than ten thousand, after being divided equally with Tang San, there would be more than 1.5 million, so there was no need to worry about expenses.
"Okay then." Old Jack sighed, and then continued, "In the future, I will talk to the people in the village who want to rent your land and help you increase the rent."
In this regard, Zhou Qing didn’t refuse anymore.
After all, wealth should not be exposed.
After helping Old Jack go home, Zhou Qing walked to the blacksmith shop where Tang San was, and heard the sound of forging, which was different from the past, with a certain rhythm.
The thing is obvious. Tang San didn't go to the forge early in the morning today. It was probably because Tang Hao was teaching him the random cloak hammering technique, but Tang Hao only remembered to take care of Tang San's mood at this time, which was a bit too much. A little more deliberate...
In the blink of an eye, it was the first day of school in Notting City.
On the day before departure, Zhou Qing and Tang San went to visit the spirit turtle whose injuries had improved and no longer required them to regularly clean the impurities in the cracks in the shell, and to conduct maintenance for the secret base. Last cleaning before leaving.
And today, Zhou Qing said goodbye to his friends in the village, got on the ox cart with Tang San, and drove away in the direction of Notting City with Old Jack.
Look back.
Looking at the back of Saint Soul Village gradually disappearing, Zhou Qing sighed with emotion: "Six years! It has been six years since I came to this world, and I finally really left the village." Although he has been a man for two generations, And before setting off, Zhou Qing had even summarized the general direction of his cultivation path, but when he actually went out, he was still a little confused.
However, this confusion quickly dissipated, and it changed firmly...probably.
Although the distance between Holy Soul Village and Notting City is not far, at the speed of an ox cart, it still took nearly a morning to reach the outskirts of Notting City.
Zhou Qing saw the gate of Notting City from a distance. The height alone was more than twenty meters.
On the door, there are three characters "Notting City".
Arriving at the city gate, Old Jack got out of the car, led the ox cart, walked into the city gate passage, and said to Zhou Qing and Tang San: "In the city, except for nobles and spirit masters with high status, other civilians are not allowed to drive. ”
Perhaps this is for the sake of traffic security and stability in the city, but Zhou Qing also saw another point: the hierarchy between nobles, soul masters, and civilians is clearly defined.
Thinking back to the fact that his civilian parents, whom he had never met, were killed by the soul master for the reason of "colliding with the soul master"...I am afraid that even if the soul master accidentally kills someone, as long as he can find sufficient The reason is that he is not guilty.
The lives of civilians, in this era, are not lives.
Perhaps in big cities, the interest disputes and mutual attacks between various big forces will be as unobstructed as possible, but in such small cities, the situation of nobles domineering and blessing is probably more difficult. Common.
On the surface, order and laws do exist, but in most cases, as long as a soul master is involved, and there is a lot of relationship network behind the soul master, justice may not favor the common people.
Even if Wuhun Palace can uphold justice, they still have to consider management issues. After all, the city owner of Notting City and his faction of officials and soul masters have the final say, not Wuhun Palace.
The Spirit Hall prefers soul masters, civilian soul masters, not the civilians themselves.
After entering Notting City, Old Jack parked the ox cart at a nearby inn, then took Zhou Qing and Tang San to the Junior Soul Master Academy.
Come to the gate.
When the concierge saw someone coming, he immediately stepped forward and glanced at the coarse linen clothes on Old Jack's body. The disdain in his eyes was clear: "What are you doing? This is not a place where country bumpkins should come."
Old Jack took out After getting Zhou Qing and Tang San's martial arts certificates, he said to the concierge: "Little brother, we are from Holy Soul Village. These two are children from the village and come to school here. One of them is a work-study student."
The concierge glanced at the martial arts certificate and frowned.
Can a useless martial soul like Lan Yincao be innately full of soul power?
There is also a heart spirit...
Part of the body? The martial spirit of the deputy city lord's daughter seems to be part of the body, the brain...
"Sir, can we go in?" Zhou Qing said, putting his hand Reaching into his pocket, two Gintama coins fell out and rolled out of the door.
Hearing the familiar voice, the concierge immediately returned the martial soul certificate to Old Jack, opened the door, bent down to pick up the two silver soul coins, pointed in the direction without looking back, and said: " This is the Gintama coin I dropped! Come in and check in! Over there!"
As soon as Old Jack was about to say something, Zhou Qing grabbed him and said, "Forget it, Grandpa Jack, let's go in."
"No, you guys. Go in, I’ll go back.”
Old Jack looked at the open space and tall teaching buildings in the Junior Soul Master Academy. The buildings in the Holy Soul Village were simply incomparable. He couldn't help but feel timid in his heart and decided to go back.
"Okay then."
After watching Old Jack's back disappear, Zhou Qingcai and Tang San walked to the reporting office...
