Chapter 5: I fainted
In the main hall of the county government office, a graceful woman was holding a teapot and respectfully brewing two cups of fragrant Mingqian tea.
The so-called Mingqian tea is not a brand name, but refers to the tea buds picked before the Qingming Festival. It is green in color, fragrant and mellow in taste.
But Yuyang County does not produce tea, so a cup of tea like this is often worth a lot of money.
It can be seen that the county magistrate of Qing Dynasty in one year does indeed earn one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver, especially under this tax system.
"Jiaoxi Cao, Senior Sister Pei, please have some tea."
Cao Jinsong, a teacher at Tianshu Academy, picked up the teacup, squinted his eyes slightly as he tasted it carefully, and suddenly felt enlightened.
On the side, Pei Ruyi, the chief disciple of the outer courtyard, was obviously not interested in tea. After turning the tea cup, he said: "You will go to Shengjing with us tomorrow. Have you packed everything?"
Fang Ruoyao nodded immediately: "Senior sister, everything has been packed."
Cao Jinsong stroked his long beard and spoke: "After being admitted to the hospital, remember to practice diligently and not waste your time. Please note that even if you enter Tianshuyuan, you are not considered to have entered the immortal way, the real immortal way..."
"The real immortal way?"
"No, it's okay."
Cao Jinsong chuckled and took back the rest of his words.
There are seven great traditions in Qingyun World, but they basically follow the three and five realms of Qi training methods inherited from the Heavenly Dao in the ancient times.
That is, the lower three realms, the upper five realms, and the Immortal Realm, until finally laughing loudly and ascending.
For those cultivating immortals, the first three realms are just for tempering one's own internal realms, which are regarded as the foundation for cultivating the Tao. Only by condensing the spiritual energy in the body can one be considered the first step into the immortal way, also known as the completion of the lower three realms.
It's just that Fang Ruoyao's qualifications are not excellent, and Cao Jiaoxi doesn't want to put pressure on her too early, so that she will have a demon in her heart.
In fact, the qualifications of Tianshuyuan's students have been getting worse and worse in recent years. Even if they are all descendants of the immortal sect or children of aristocratic families, there are only two who have achieved perfection in the lower three realms this year.
Back then, when the seven major sects jointly formulated the Qingyun Immortal Rules, they listed a rule: Those who have reached the lower three realms before they are young can automatically enter the immortal status without asking where they came from.
But nowadays, there are only a few people who can achieve it.
Fang Ruoyao glanced at him half-understanding, and suddenly saw the servant in the mansion running to the front of the court.
"Miss, Master Kuang is looking for a meeting outside and wants to see you off."
Fang Ruoyao thought for a long time and then said: "I'm making tea for the Immortal, please come and see me off tomorrow, Mr. Kuang."
After hearing this, Pei Ruyi couldn't help but smile softly: "It's a high mountain and a long road. Since I came here to say goodbye, I might as well go and see him."
"Then... then Ruoyao will retire first."
Fang Ruoyao only hesitated for a moment before agreeing and walking to the side hall.
Kuang Cheng was also brought in by the guards in front of the door at this time. The map of Yan country was very short, so he asked Fang Ruoyao to help the Qiu family.
In fact, Fang Ruoyao had already guessed that he would be like this.
After all, Kuang Cheng's reputation as a gentleman was known throughout the county, so he didn't want to come, and now that he heard it from his own mouth, he simply refused.
"Tian Shuyuan is naturally the Great Xia Holy Sect, but Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion is also the largest sect in the world. Although the two Immortal Sects have been secretly fighting for many years, they have always worked together openly and never crossed the river."
"What you read in the book is true. Tianshuyuan does have the responsibility to protect its disciples and their families, but I have nothing to do with the Qiu family. If I force myself to come forward, won't people accuse me of Tianshuyuan for interfering in the affairs of other sects?"
"Besides, I haven't been admitted to the hospital yet, so how can I dare to trouble the immortal?"
"Mr. Kuang, I am leaving tomorrow. Ruoyao is grateful that you can come and say goodbye to me. That is why she wants to see you. But I don't want to cause more trouble. There is really nothing I can do about this matter."
< br>
Fang Ruoyao is now a disciple of Tianshu Academy. Although she has not yet learned the immortal method, she already has a somewhat transcendent air. She is no longer like the Xiaojiabiyu of the past, but more like a proud swan.
After all, being able to become an immortal cultivator is destined to be noble in this life.
Kuang Cheng was silent for a moment and said: "Even if it means the life of a one or five-year-old girl, is it not worth Miss Fang's life?"
"In this world, who can save whom?"
"It is because of this world that we should save people!"
"Master Kuang, do you know that we cultivators of immortality need to have no distracting thoughts in order to be able to follow the natural way?"
Kuang Cheng was startled for a moment, and then he realized that he was an immortal in front of him. His expression was very respectful: "Please forgive Kuang for disturbing me, and take my leave."
Seeing him turn around and walk out, Fang Ruoyao thought for a while and then spoke again: "You went to see Ji You, but he didn't dare to come, so you came in person?"
"Not bad."
"The Qiu family is very kind to him, but he can pretend not to know it?"
"What did Miss Fang want to say?"
"Back then, when the Ji family was destroyed, I took the opportunity to break off the engagement with him. I received a lot of criticism. Some people said that Fang Ruoyao was adding insult to injury, while others said that I was not a woman. But now it has been proven how innocent I am. How can that ungrateful person be my good friend? Match?" Kuang Cheng didn't say anything after hearing this, and left Fang Mansion with a wave of his sleeves.
He did not dare to agree with Fang Ruoyao's words, because an engagement was an engagement, and character was character. Just as merit and demerit could not be offset, they could not be generalized.
If Fang Ruoyao really doesn't like that Ji You, she can choose a suitable way to break off the engagement and save some dignity for both parties.
But she chose to take advantage of others' danger and forcefully regret the marriage when Ji You was still unable to walk around. Her character was not necessarily any better.
But at this moment, although Kuang Cheng was full of truth, he really had nothing to say, because Master Ji had not even dared to leave the house.
Kuang Cheng didn't like Fang Ruoyao's behavior and looked down upon Ji You's cowardice, so he had no choice but to help each other.
She will immediately become a member of the Immortal Realm and does not want to have any contact with the old people and old things.
If she really asks for help from her apprentice and senior sister, and it is later discovered that she has been engaged to a village man from a rural village, she will probably not be able to hold her head high in front of fellow Taoists.
Fang Ruoyao poured the tea in her hand into the flower bed, stood up and was about to go to the main hall, but at this moment, a roaring sound suddenly came from the northwest outside the window.
Then, a ray of rays of light shot up into the clouds and merged into the evening sky.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Before she could see clearly, the glow quickly converged and disappeared behind the clouds, as if it had never appeared before, which made her feel inexplicable.
But what Fang Ruoyao didn't know was that the two immortals who were still sipping tea in the front hall had now left the house with their swords in hand and came to Yuyang County Archway Street with solemn expressions.
The flaming cloud stretching across the sky originally stretched for thousands of miles, but at this moment, it was cut off in the direction of Archway Street, with a cut mark of ten miles, like an immortal wielding a sword.
But the ray of rays of light just now had been suppressed and disappeared behind the clouds, as if it had never appeared.
This place is remote and barren, and there is no Immortal Dojo. The only Fengxian Villa is Sansanlipu to the west, which is far away from here, so the sound of Taoism and the light of the sky cannot pass through the clouds.
Private repair!
In Yuyang County, there is a private cultivator of the upper realm of Chuxuan who has just broken the mirror!
But this aura converged too quickly, and even they couldn't continue to catch the wind and shadow at this moment.
"Teaching, I can't find it."
"Well, it disappeared."
Cao Jinsong whispered and swept the Ji family's door plaque without leaving any trace. The shock appeared in his eyes and then disappeared quickly.
Yuyang County is not big, and occasionally interesting news can be spread throughout the country in an hour. Immortals have good ears and eyes, so some things cannot be hidden from them.
He knew that the girl from the Qiu family was extremely enlightened, and that the young master from the Ji family was still young...
Pei Ruyi noticed the teacher's gaze, and then looked at Ji Zhai with a raised eyebrow: "Is it possible that the private practitioner hid in this courtyard?"
"No, I know it won't happen even if I don't look at it."
"?"
Cao Jinsong turned around and left, but his hands couldn't help but tremble in his sleeves.
Fang Ruoyao has a fiancé who is scorned by the whole county. It is said that he is young and as timid as a mouse...
The year is not weak, the year is not weak, the year is not weak, the year is not weak!
Pei Ruyi followed behind him, saying to himself that his leg strength was really invincible, even when he walked he was shaking as if he was practicing kung fu.
At this time, just two doors away, Ji You's eyes were tightly closed, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.
After a while, he opened his eyes and looked up at the dusk outside the window, only to realize that thirteen hours had passed outside.
I almost fainted...
It is true that it is difficult for a young person to learn from an old person, and every inch of time is important.
He looked inside the spiritual spring in his body and saw that it was full, just waiting to be smelted, and he would escape death.
In the blink of an eye, it was evening and the sky was getting dark.
Fang Ruoyao was preparing things for use in the room and found Cao Jiaoxi looking at something in the courtyard, so she called her father over.
"Dad, my daughter is leaving tomorrow. Is the carriage to Shengjing ready?"
"It's ready, but..."
Fang Zhongzheng stretched out his hand and took out a greeting note: "I will come to Fengxian Villa for a visit tomorrow, and the immortal agreed."
Fang Ruoyao was slightly startled: "Didn't I always agree before? Why did I suddenly agree? My daughter also invited some old friends to see me off tomorrow."
"It doesn't hurt to delay for an hour or two, so that they can take a look at the immortals of Tianshuyuan and gain insights."
