Chapter 54 School Examination asking for monthly votes

Lin Jue began to learn fire magic from his second senior brother.
This is the orthodox Five Elements magic.
Start practicing taking and learning to pick.
Every time I chop wood, I practice Wood Escape.
Fetching water is more frequent——
Usually, most people drink water from the well next to the Taoist temple, but if you are willing to walk a little longer, you can go to Ganquan Creek. The water here is very sweet. A sip in summer can really relieve the heat.
Far away is the Jinyu River. There are many miscellaneous fish in the water, as well as Jinyu. Catching some fish and shrimps is a picnic.
This is drinking water.
Water is also needed to make elixirs.
Some use water to mix medicines, some use water to carry medicinal properties, and some use water to extract the aura of water.
There are many spiritual springs and streams in Yishan Mountain, such as the holy water spring.
There is also Nongyuetan, the water of which is filled with the yin essence of moonflower. If you want to refine the elixir of yin nature, it is perfect for it. If you want to refine the elixir of yang nature, it is also useful for blending. There is also Danxia Stream, which is connected with
On the contrary, there is the Xiangsha Well on Lianhua Peak, which contains the essence of Mount Yi, and one must respectfully ask for it from the mountain god. Another example is the Cinnabar Spring under Cinnabar Peak, where the ancient emperor made elixirs.
Get water here.
It is said that a dragon once lived in Yulintan, and there was dragon energy in the water. To this day, people at the foot of the mountain still come here to pray for rain during severe droughts.
Lin Jue had no attainments in alchemy, and was still in the stage of learning from his second senior brother. He was barely able to help, so he had to help his second senior brother by running more errands and doing some chores like fetching water.
I also saw a lot of scenery on the mountain, learned a lot of roads, and ate countless peaches, plums, and apricots.
The junior sister started to go out early and come back late.
This little girl is as diligent as him.
He might even be chasing him secretly, unwilling to be weaker than him, so he secretly worked hard where Lin Jue couldn't see him.
Every morning after breakfast, he would go out with a few hard-boiled eggs, and would not come back until dinner in the evening. He was nowhere to be seen. When asked, he was building roads - and it was exactly as Lin Jue expected. He was so handsome that day.
Lin Jue had almost never seen the fair little junior sister again. The little junior sisters he saw from then on were all dusty versions.
Underneath his disgraced face, there is also a certain naivety.
Before you know it, it will be July, the season of flowing fire.
During the hottest time of the year, Lin Jue felt some scorching light on the mountain, mostly while doing hard work such as chopping firewood and fetching water. At other times, especially when he was at the Taoist temple, the green tiles shaded the sun.
, I almost don’t feel the heat when I sit still, unless I insist on going under the sun. But I didn’t expect that the summer was over before I knew it, and the weather started to get cooler.
It's morning.
Several puppets with oil paint on their faces and stiff expressions and joints brought rice and some chopped vegetables or mixed porridge cooked with grass. There were also a lot of egg drops floating in it, I guess.
I want to ensure the daily supply of nutrients, so in addition to the grassy taste of mixed vegetables, I also have a little fishy smell of eggs.
While the seventh senior brother was making seals and casting spells to control the puppets, he still had thoughts to talk to Lin Jue and the younger junior sister:
"Tiandu Peak? Of course you can go up there."
"It looks so steep!"
"Junior sister, what you said is wrong! Viewed horizontally, there are ridges and peaks on the side, with different heights at different distances. Junior sister can only see one side of the mountain, not to mention only from a distance. How can we know its whole picture?" Senior Brother Seventh said, "There are mountains on Tiandu Peak.
There is a side that is steep and difficult to climb, but there is also a side that you can barely climb. Of course, it is just barely, it depends on whether you can find it and whether you have the courage to climb."
"Is there a road?"
"Of course there is no road like steps, unless you are willing to build them. But as long as you are brave and find a way, mortals can reach the top."
"Where is it?"
"You want to go? I can take you there today."
"Not today. Today is the seventh day of the lunar month. Taoist Master Wangjizi is going to test our 'Wind Breathing' method." The junior sister said seriously, "After breakfast, we are going to Xianyuan Temple."
"No wonder you wore clean clothes..."
"Yes!"
The puppet began to serve food for everyone.
Lin Jue saw that the seventh senior brother was holding the seal with one hand, and the other hand was hanging down naturally, and his five fingers were moving continuously, as if controlling the behavior of the puppets.
The way of magic is so profound.
This road is so long.
Lin Jue couldn't help but think.
This pot of porridge is as unpalatable as ever.
All I can say is that I am dying.
Only the junior sister's appetite increased greatly after she started working as a hard worker, and she ate three full bowls every day.
After breakfast, the two went to Xianyuan Temple.
After leaving the Taoist temple, there is a forest path. The road is made of solid soil covered with fallen leaves. If you go further, you will be blocked by dangerous peaks and strange mountains. The seniors of Fuqiu Temple opened a road over the mountains and rocks, but
The roads going up and down the mountain are very rough and dangerous, and even slippery on rainy days. This time, when we walked on, there were already twenty steps at the bottom of the nearest mountain.
But how long are these twenty steps?
If it were an attic of a private house, you might be able to go up to one floor, but for the mountain in front of you, you would only be able to climb up to the top of your feet.
Once you climb this mountain, you have to climb down again.
After passing this mountain, there are several more.
Lin Jue couldn't help but glance at the junior sister next to him.
Today is not bad, at least I changed into clean robes, washed my face and head, and I look vaguely like the little junior sister I used to be, except my skin is a little darker.
"Senior brother, look!" The little junior sister didn't know his worries at all. Instead, she pointed at the twenty or so steps and said proudly to him, "This is the road I built. With the steps, it will be much easier to walk!"
"
"It's very smooth..."
"Of course! The benefits lie in the future!"
"Um……"
Lin Jue was wondering how long she would have to practice.
"My magic power is low, and my magical attainments are not deep. When I first came here, I couldn't practice one level in a day. But yesterday, I was almost able to practice two levels in a day." The junior sister said, "Master said, wait for me
By building this road to the Xianyuan Temple, my 'Qishi' can be said to be a small success."
“What about ‘Hufeng’?”
"I also learned it, and I use it to blow away the dust on the road."
"Junior sister, please be careful. The cliff is so dangerous, so don't fall when the road is being built."
"How could this happen?"
Stepping onto the stone steps, both of them walked much faster than before.
This is due to spiritual practice.
In fact, just practicing spiritual methods will not make you full of physical strength and infinite strength. Unless you can become an immortal, it will be useless no matter how high you are. Just like spiritual methods do not make you omnipotent, it just gives you a way.
On the road to the vast and omnipotent supernatural power, if you have any ability, you must practice extra. Spiritual charm exists widely in the world and has countless magical effects, but it does not manifest itself. However, after practicing the spiritual method, you can actively exercise your body.
If so, it will naturally have better effects and achieve higher achievements. It all depends on your choice.
Lin Jue and his junior sister run up and down the mountains all day long, which is undoubtedly a form of exercise.
When we arrived at Xianyuan Temple, we were only slightly out of breath.
When they arrived at the main hall, Wang Jizi was lighting incense, and the green smoke was just rising. There were already more than a dozen young Taoist priests sitting in the hall.
The young Taoist priests either closed their eyes and concentrated, or pursed their lips and said nothing, or turned sideways and talked quietly with their close friends. Some were worried, some were looking forward to it, and some were calm.
It looked like everyone was waiting for Lin Jue and the others.
"Are you here? You came early today." Wang Jizi sat down and looked out the door.
As soon as the other young Taoist priests heard this, those who were speaking fell silent, and those who had closed their eyes opened their eyes, looked back at them, and then sat upright.
It seems that he is not only used to waiting for the two of them, but is also used to listening to the lecture as soon as they arrive.
"I've met Mr. Dao."
The junior sister walked forward and put down her pocket.
He took out some peaches, plums and apricots and placed them in front of Wangjizi.
"These are wild fruits grown on Fuqiu Peak. They are very delicious. We saw them on the road and brought some to Master Tao."
"I'm determined."
Wang Jizi couldn't help but smile.
The two of them came back and sat down.
It is natural to respect your teachers.
What's more, they haven't paid tuition yet.
"Today, the seventh day of July, is the promised time to test your spells. It's cool this morning, and the sun rarely shines on the mountain. It's a good weather. The only drawback is that it's a bit muggy, so let's get some wind."
Wangjizi said leisurely, and set up a wooden board one foot long, one foot wide and about three fingers thick above.
"Pindao went to Kowloon to visit friends a few days ago. When he left, he took some worthless elixirs. They didn't have much effect, but they were good for the body after taking them.
"Whoever disturbs the green smoke will get one grain.
"Blow these three incense sticks to produce a bright red light and get two pills.
"Whoever blows down the board gets three grains.
"It's been a month since I preached to you, "Whispering Wind." How many achievements have you made and how much hard work have you put in? Let's show them now."
While he was talking, many eyes from the Taoist priests were quietly looking at Lin Jue and the other two.
I wonder if Wangjizi has ever said something like "Don't embarrass my temple" like Taoist Yunhe. Anyway, the young Taoist priests have all heard that Fuqiu Temple has the ability to "know people and their fates", so each generation chooses disciples
They are all extremely talented. Most of them are teenagers. It is not easy to think that they are inferior to others, not to mention that there are many stronger ones among them. They have always been dissatisfied and have already held their breath.
The junior sister couldn't help but look worried.
Although she is quite talented in the Five Elements and is suitable for learning the natural spells of heaven and earth, during this period of time, her focus was almost entirely on the 'stone', and Hu Feng was only practicing incidentally.
Stirring the green smoke is no problem.
It’s no problem even if you haven’t practiced magic. How can you not mess up the green smoke by blowing a breath or fanning your sleeves? Setting this item is just to distribute pills to people.
To put it bluntly, they are all disciples of Guanzhong.
It’s no problem to blow out those three incense sticks.
Although the three sticks of incense are thick and big, and it is still daytime at this time, as long as you have enough breath and blow close to them, they can still be blown brightly. However, if you use magic to blow to this point, it can be regarded as the magic has manifested.
However, the wooden board is very thick. Even if a normal person puts his mouth close and blows hard on the top edge, it will not fall easily.
Using magic is even more difficult.
At this time, Wang Jizi's voice was heard.
"Who comes first?"
The old Taoist's eyes swept over everyone one by one.
Some looked away, some showed hesitation, some waited quietly, and some decided to observe first or make preparations before they could compete with the two people in Fuqiu Temple.
Lin Jue had already stood up.
"Master Dao, I'm coming."
Without any delay, he just bowed to Wangjizi, then used his magic power to fan his sleeves.
"Wow--"
The rain bells swayed outside.
The mountain breeze suddenly rushed in and filled the hall.
The green smoke in the room was stirred up and disappeared in an instant. The thick incense and red light in the furnace were strong, and it could be seen clearly even in the daytime.
"Bang!"
The standing planks fell solidly.
But it's much more than that.
The statues of the gods in the temple roared in the wind, the hangings under the eaves shook and clattered randomly, and even the sundries on the walls were blown down, leaving many people in the room unable to open their eyes.
The hearts of many disciples in the Xianyuan audience suddenly became clear.
"Wait for these two to cast the spell first and then I cast the spell?
"After I cast the spell, I immediately asked them to cast the spell?
"If we win, do you want to say that the disciples of Fuqiu Temple are nothing more than this? I'm afraid it will affect the friendship between our two families.
"If I win, I will comfort them...
"..."
Even if there were all kinds of thoughts in my mind before, they all disappeared at this time. They had been thought of a few days ago or had been brewing for a long time. Some of the competing words that reached the throat were swallowed.
I was even glad in my heart. Fortunately, this person didn't wait for the end, waiting for them to finish their performance before appearing. Now, it seems like he is taking care of them.
Chapter completed!
