Chapter 13 Spiritual Roots
Pei Ziyun narrowed his eyes, looked back, and thought to himself: "This is to attract people's hearts."
"But the Wen Banquet is held once every three years. Usually, Yue Juren does not build roads and test porridge, which is not a taboo. It seems that it is just a good relationship and a way to make a name for his children."
The three of them were chatting, and they went downstairs and left the private room. The downstairs were even more lively. People came and looked at them, and Pei Ziyun was about to ask about Ma Ji.
Why does this Ma Ji pass the Juren exam a few years later? Why does it seem to be in conflict?
At this moment, when he suddenly heard a noise, Pei Ziyun frowned and looked back at the restaurant. He saw a Taoist sitting at the wine table. The Taoist was wearing a faded Taoist robe with several bowls on it. They were all empty. The Taoist was drinking a pot of wine. A guy called the Taoist: "You Taoist, it's okay for you to order a table of good wine and meat. I told you in a nice way, "You said nothing, and let me beat you out--our Hujinglou pays attention to reputation, how can you hit people at will?"
"You seem to be a good figure, and it's not difficult to go out to work hard and earn some money to live. Do you want to eat and do things that are lazy?"
The scholars went downstairs and thought it was something. It turned out that this Taoist wanted to eat this overlord meal. The guy said that this guy was quite polite and didn't do anything.
Pei Ziyun looked at the Taoist, and saw that the Taoist had a lot of dust and dirt on his body, and there were still some rags. There were many bowls of good meat on the table, and he couldn't help but think of the novel "The Legend of the World" in his previous life. He felt a little moved and went up.
I saw the Taoist ignoring the guy's words, scratching his ears and digging his earwax, which left the guy helpless. Just as he was about to tell the shopkeeper, everyone saw a scholar walking to the table and asked, "This guy, how much has this Taoist spent? I'll pay for it."
When the guy saw someone coming to pay, he was just happy and reported it: "This man ate a bowl of braised beef tripe, a bowl of steamed hairy crab, a portion of ten-full-toned chicken, a portion of black chicken porridge, a few large bowls of mutton, three pots of aged wine, and a liang of silver together."
"One tael of silver?" Pei Ziyun felt a little painful when he heard this. The world's silver was precious, and one tael of silver was saving some money. In the countryside, it was a family of families who had a year's expense. After gritting their teeth, they took out a piece of silver. Even though this man was eating a king's meal, he didn't expect that there was a scholar to pay the bill. He couldn't help but be surprised. The three people who were traveling with him were also surprised, for some reason.
At this time, the third floor was still cleaning up, and there was no sound on the fourth floor. Zhang Jieyu went up and saw two people guarding him on the stairs. When he saw him coming, he stood with his hands down to give way.
Zhang Jieyu arrived on the fourth floor and saw Zhu Qishimama, the door was half open, and the screen and bookshelf could be seen faintly. At this time, he heard Yue Qiushan's voice inside: "Is it a virtuous nephew? Come in and talk!"
"Here!" Zhang Jieyu responded and came in and bowed. He saw Yue Qiushan sitting on the chair of the carving master. There was a person sitting upright on the small table not far away. He looked only forty years, wearing green fir and pursed eyebrows and phoenix eyes, very elegant, full of bookish spirit, but seemed to have some wine and color, and couldn't help but smile.
Therefore, he bowed: "Uncle, Mr. Li."
Mr. Li smiled and nodded. It seemed that he was also a person with a status. He was copying poems, writing a list, sorting it out, and handing over a copy. He smiled and said, "Senior Brother, this time, the scholars in the house can be won by the children in this year's house, I'm afraid they are all here!"
Zhang Jieyu was about to ask, but he listened to Yue Qiushan's look and ordered: "Wen Jing, the family background is good and the ancestors are so kind. Those who are obsessed with the dragon's energy early will not be able to move. They will just delete them from the list."
"yes!"
Li Wenjing seemed to be ready and immediately took down a piece of paper. Yue Qiushan's eyebrows moved slightly, pondered for a while, and continued, "It's just that they're too famous, so they'll be deleted, otherwise it'll be easy to attract attention."
Speaking of this, he sighed: "After all, our Holy Sect is not those casual cultivators. Only those casual cultivators can easily find some folk disciples to pass on their inheritance. Which mountain gate is not looking for disciples who are in love with their hearts among the scholars of Tongsheng?"
"It's just that this move has violated the dragon's qi's jealousy, so the ancestors are so kind that they cannot get it if they are attracted by the dragon's qi early, but they are too famous and too noticeable, and they cannot get it."
"Those children who have hanging tails have limited spiritual wisdom and are of little use, so they will not take it."
"Apart from these people, we will choose the top ten in the middle, but it is not completely certain now. I will just choose among scholars when the government is tested."
Zhang Jieyu knew that this was actually for him to listen to, and had basically selected the introductory candidate. At this time, he paid a visit to him according to the rules of the master: "Master!"
Yue Qiushan said, "If these people lead them into our sect, you, the future senior brother."
"You will be responsible for these things sooner or later. Don't think it's a waste. Of course, the Holy Sect is not a mountain of gold and silver. The county governments should try to use the Tao as little as possible to avoid violating the taboos of heaven and dragon energy. But we are not ordinary people, and the industry is still relatively easy, so there is no need to worry about the cost of this article banquet."
"After entering the Holy Sect or any Taoist Sect, your fame will be at most at the juren, and you must not be an official. You must understand and remember this." After that, Yue Qiushan did not say anything.
There was a wind outside at some point. It was originally a sunny day, but now the clouds were pressing down very low, covering the building with a darkness. The wind chimes jingled under the eaves. Zhang Jieyu hurriedly said: "I naturally know this. Once you become an official, the dragon energy will destroy the foundation of the Tao, and you will naturally not be able to cultivate immortals."
Li Wenjing was checking the list and laughing and joked: "It's good that you know, but if you become the true lord, maybe it's fine. Things in the world and human feelings are easy to fall down, but it's difficult to fall back on others. Generally speaking, this is the case!"
Zhang Jieyu smiled bitterly: "Uncle Master, don't make this joke for me."
Li Wenjing loves wine and sex, and Taoism is not good, but he is smart and capable, and he is controlled by the secular industry. His status is really not low. Zhang Jieyu smiled, paused, and asked again: "Is there any Pei Ziyun on the list? I think his poems are quite good, and he is not considered a dragon's energy."
Yue Qiushan's eyes hopped, lowered his eyelids and took a sip of tea, and said, "I'm about to talk about this person. My Holy Sect has the method of observing the appearance of the little Dunjia, which can see the person's fortune and fate. You can see this, and it's a bit too late."
"The fate of a person has fixed numbers and variables. You cannot be greedy or wait. Pei Ziyun's temperament is not very prominent. Judging from his appearance, he has little virtue and a small fortune. It is already good to be able to become a scholar, and he is not able to become a scholar this year."
"But this humanistic spirit is nurturing, and a faint light is revealed from the top, but it makes you feel interesting and understand the truth." Speaking of this, Yue Qiushan was also skeptical: "It seems that the knowledge of articles and knowledge is already in the knowledge of the articles, at least for this examination, it is very likely that literature can change one's destiny."
"You also know that most of these observing phenomena are vague, and the holy laws are hindered by things and desires in life, so it must be broken. How easy is this?" After saying that, Yue Qiushan couldn't help laughing and said with a suggestion: "You can try this kind of person, but you don't have to be attached."
Zhang Jieyu thought to himself: "Master means that there are many variables in this kind of person, which may not be beneficial to the master, so there is no need to be obsessed?"
"You just understand this. In the early years, the masters would take it. Now, we have put on shoes and got on the shore. People with many variables still have to wait."
Zhang Jieyu realized: "I understand."
…………
The four of them went back to the inn and said goodbye to each other.
Pei Ziyun was a little drunk. It turned out that at the banquet, the three of them were very happy to see Pei Ziyun win the third place and win the ridicule. Therefore, they poured a lot of wine from Pei Ziyun. The alcohol had great momentum, so they didn't feel that after half an hour, they returned to the room and the wine came up.
The guy burned a large bucket of hot water to the room. After washing, he took a break in the bed for a while and thought to himself: "I finally get free time!"
It turned out that when I saw the Taoist, I remembered that I had Taoist Dharma in my previous life. I always felt that I often forgot this, so I wanted to rush back to practice, but I was pulled by three people and refused to let one walk alone. The three of them were drunk and drank a little too much, so it took time to return to the room.
At this time, I saw that the wine dissipated a lot. Although it was not suitable to practice the exercises when drinking, it was not hindered. I immediately took a look at the original owner's memory and thought to myself: "The original owner lost the opportunity to go to Zhao Ning in his previous life, but he had the opportunity to get a note from a casual cultivator, but it was a sustenance thing. He obtained the Dharma in his dream."
"Although this Sutra Extension Picture is superficial, it is the most practical. Anyone who has some spirituality can immediately be inspired and the most effective. However, it can complete the foundation laying according to the level, but the speed is slower. The original owner later entered Songyun Gate to present it, but it was evaluated as an authentic foundation laying method and also received some merits of entering the Tao."
"I'll try this."
Pei Ziyun sat up cross-legged and practiced according to the Taoist Dharma. He only thought about it and began to practice the exercises. The original owner had obtained the Taoist Dharma in just three hours. Now he thought it was easy to practice.
After a long time, nothing was found. Pei Ziyunsan wore a piece of underwear and looked at the window. He pulled out a book with no intention. He looked at it, but he was not interested. He just frowned and thought, asking in his heart: "This method can be practiced with a little spiritual awareness, but it is too slow to advance. Why can't he do it? He had only three moments in his previous life, but he had nothing in this life. Could it be that if his body changed to a soul, he would be gone?"
Just as he was confused, he saw the plum blossoms lit up between his eyebrows and a message penetrated, Pei Ziyun immediately understood the reason: "This body has no spiritual roots of the original owner - Xie Zhenjun's ban is vicious, but in order to prevent the original owner from practicing Taoism and getting rid of difficulties, he even deprived of the spiritual roots."
"Back now, although I have obtained plum blossoms, my body has lost its spiritual roots, and I must find new spiritual roots."
"So practicing now is useless, so I have forgotten it intentionally or unintentionally these days."
"If you want to practice, you have to find a spiritual sustenance to make up for it. This sustenance implies the spiritual roots of the cultivator, even a trace of it!"
Thinking of this, a small white plum appears in front of me, and it quickly enlarges, turning into a translucent data box, floating in the field of view with a faint sense of light, and the task appears.
"Task 1: Save Ye Suer (Complete)"
"Task 2: Pass the scholar (not completed)"
"Task 3: Obtain the sustenance of the monk (not completed)"
After a closer look, it was the content of the information. If you didn’t want this exploration, a new task was created. Pei Ziyun was a little troubled and didn’t know how to start. He is not a practitioner of Taoism now. How can he get in touch with the practitioner and how can he obtain sustenance?
