Chapter 17: The Flowers of Polygonum Amurensis Fulfill One’s Wishes
“I’ve met Uncle Qiao, Senior Brother Yun, Senior Sister Luo, and Senior Brother Cai.”
Following Wu Tianen to Chonghua Villa, in fact, That is, the Chonghua Sect met four people from the Chonghua Sect who came together at a Taoist temple in Yiyang Mansion.
Wu Tianen had already informed the four people. Qiao Zhun had no objection to this situation, but there was a sense of regret and regret in Wu Tianen's words, and he was also a little curious.
A Taoist with poor spiritual roots and no one interested in him at the age of 20, who is difficult to enter the Tao, is clearly a "connected household" of the Jiulian Sect who took advantage of the situation to push people to the Chonghua Sect.
Our sect is just a favor, sending people away if they are unable to enter the Tao for one year, and providing them with the benefits of being a registered disciple for one year. Why does Senior Brother still feel that it is a pity?
Qiao Zhun is also in his early seventies. Now he is at the seventh level of Qi training, which can be said to be in his prime. Wu Tianen wants to say that he is of the same generation. He only started five years earlier than him, but Wu Tianen is already a Qi practitioner. Ji Yizhong is a real immortal master.
Yunhe and Luo Xiuyue are a Taoist couple. They look to be around thirty years old, but it is difficult to tell the age of cultivators from their faces. Chen Huaisheng estimates that they should be in their fifties. About 40 years old, while Cai Jinyang is slightly younger, probably around forty.
After some pleasantries, Wu Tianen signaled everyone to stop being polite: "Okay, Junior Brother Qiao, Yunhe, Xiuyue, Jinyang, and Huaisheng have just entered our sect and have not yet entered the Tao. What is the difference between our cultivation world and The rules of this sect are not clear. You can talk to him more when you come down. He is a native of Liao County and is very familiar with the situation in Fengtong Ridge. Brother Yi Dao of Jiulian Sect has made a clear promise to come to Yiyang in the past two years. To investigate the murder case here, there may be some people from the Jiulian Sect. At that time, we will also cooperate with the Jiulian Sect to find out the murder of the nephew Zhaolin, which can be regarded as an explanation to the sect..."< br>
When Wu Tianen and Qiao Zhun went to discuss the matter, there were only four people left in the hall.
Yunhe is a tall and thin man with a sharp face. Not to mention, the empty Taoist robe he wears on his body really looks like a crane in the clouds.
Luo Xiuyue looked to be only thirty years old, with average appearance, but a good figure. She wore a common female crown bun with a white silk ribbon tied at the end of her hair, which gave her a bit more elegance. .
"Junior brother, you are the last disciple of our Chonghua sect this year. Our Chonghua sect has never recruited disciples in the autumn. It is really rare for Master Wu to be so successful this time."
Luo Xiuyue looked at Chen Huaisheng with a smile and joked: "It's really rare that you haven't entered Taoism at the age of twenty. You have to work hard."
Chen Huaisheng also heard the words in the other person's words. There was no malice, and he said nervously: "Senior sister is laughing at me. I came from a poor family. I awakened my spiritual roots late, and then I spent a few years wasting away outside, so..."
In just a few words, the topic was brought to his own experiences in the past few years, and several people were greatly moved.
The Chonghua Sect can only be regarded as a local mid-level sect, with less than 200 members in total. It can be ranked high in Yi County, but it is not worth mentioning in the entire Zhao Dynasty.
No more than fifteen disciples are recruited each year, and these fifteen disciples can only be regarded as registered disciples. Only those who have entered the Tao can be regarded as formal disciples.
But basically half of them will be eliminated because they are unable to enter the Tao. Only about eight people can become official disciples every year, with the highest number being ten, and the lowest number being only five.
"It is indeed a pity for you in the past few years. Since you are from Liao County, why didn't you join Lingyun Sect from the beginning?" Yun He frowned and said: "Lingyun Sect visits Yiyang Mansion every year. We need to recruit at least thirty disciples, so you have a chance.”
"Senior Brother Yun, my first stop was to visit the Lingyun Sect. There were more than a hundred people visiting the Lingyun Sect. The Lingyun Sect screened them and only accepted less than ten people. I didn't even meet anyone from the Lingyun Sect. Being sent away,..."
There are more than one million people in Yiyang Mansion, and there are no less than 200 innate Taoist people who awaken their spiritual roots every year. Even those large sects will pass the introduction Some methods are chosen, but a lot will still be left for small and medium-sized local sects. People like Chen Huaisheng who awakened their spiritual roots at the age of fourteen have no chance at all.
It can be said that without Xuan Chimei's contribution, without Yi Chuyang's recommendation and the coincidence of the incident where a disciple of the Chonghua Sect was murdered in Liao County, Chen Huaisheng would never have had the opportunity to enter Wu Tianen's sight. , let alone become a disciple of the Chonghua Sect.
Luo Xiuyue couldn't help but roll her eyes at her partner. She was a very unsophisticated man, so asking this question obviously hurt her self-esteem.
Seeing Luo Xiuyue smile apologetically and want to say something, Chen Huaisheng interrupted calmly: "Senior sister, I know that senior brother also cares about me and has no other thoughts. In fact, I don't have any good talents. I know, but I still want to work hard. Even if there is a chance, I am willing to give it a try. No matter what the result is, it is better than going back to the countryside to eat and wait to die, right?”
Several people were slightly moved. After traveling for many years, experiencing so much, and suffering so much, there was only one year before the deadline for entering the Tao, but they still failed to enter the Tao. If it were them, I am afraid that they would have lost confidence at this time and would consider looking for a way out.
But people still pursue it tirelessly and persistently. This kind of situation is really rare.
Besides, the immortality is everlasting and fascinating, but the cultivation of immortality depends most on the qualifications and endowments.
Everyone knows this truth, and it is true in every sect. If your qualifications are not good enough, no matter how hard you try, it will not help.
The practice of immortality has never been so cruel as it only requires hard work to grind an iron pestle into a needle or a foolish old man to move a mountain.
But this man obviously doesn’t want to give up until he reaches the Yellow River, and even feels a bit like he won’t give up until he reaches the Yellow River.
"Junior brother, there is still one year left. There are many people from various sects who have entered Taoism at the last moment. You may not be able to do it. If you spend more time and realize it during this year, maybe it will happen overnight. You can realize the truth."
Luo Xiuyue's words are not comforting, and it is not uncommon for various sects to survive from desperate situations.
Especially since enlightenment is a mysterious and mysterious matter, just like awakening spiritual roots, you suddenly have a feeling and it is done.
The same is true for enlightenment, and Chen Huaisheng also felt that he had touched the threshold of enlightenment just the night before, and was infinitely close.
"Thank you, senior sister, for your concern and encouragement. I understand." Chen Huaisheng was unwilling to keep the topic focused on himself, and took the initiative to jump to the topic of his trip to Liao County, "This time I went to Fengxian. Do you need to prepare anything in advance for Tongling's investigation?"
Yun He and Luo Xiuyue exchanged glances with Cai Jinyang on the side and shook their heads at the same time: "That depends on the two uncles. ”
Chen Huaisheng keenly sensed something from the changes in the eyes of the three people. It seems that the murder of the Fengtongling disciples is not that simple. There may be some unknown inside stories inside. .
After lunch, we will leave for Tate County.
Chen Huaisheng and Cai Jinyang lived in the same house and took a short break.
Cai Jinyang didn't speak much before, and Luo Xiuyue basically did the talking. It wasn't until the two of them were left alone that Chen Huaisheng realized that Cai Jinyang was actually a talkative person.
"There are about one hundred and eighty-three disciples in our sect. This includes the fifteen disciples who were recruited during Jingzhe. Now including you, it will be one hundred and eighty-four... "
"The Zongmen Mountain Gate is located between Langshan Mountain and Panshan Mountain. The two mountains are close to each other and stretch for 120 miles. There are Haoyue Pool, Zihua Stream, Shuanglong Spring, Foguang Cave, Yingwo Village, and floating smoke. The accumulation of greenery is a grand sight..."
"You mean Master Wu? ..., he broke into the ninth level of Qi training twelve years ago, and jumped to the foundation building level two years ago. Now he is at the first level of foundation building, which is also our top level. One of the five foundation-building deacons of the Chinese sect,..."
"You mean the leader? Haha, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. The leader has been in seclusion for a long time. If there is something important, you can burn incense to wake him up. In emergencies, there are also special ways to contact you..."
An update will be added at 12 o'clock in the evening to strive for recommendation next week. I hope brothers will collect and read it and help recommend and promote it.
