After drinking and eating, the family returned to the living room. In order to prevent immortal cultivators from accidentally passing by, Yi Rui took out the formation cards to cover the room to prevent the private matters discussed at home from being leaked.
Gongsun Yan first talked about the issue of cultivation seriously. He analyzed the pros and cons of practicing the "Method of Gathering and Dispersion" to his family, and finally said:
"Mother, Xiao Sheng, Xiao Yao, from now on, there are two roads to cultivating immortality before you. One is to continue to practice the 'Way of Gathering and Dispersion' with me, but I will have to explore every step before I can practice it.
The speed cannot be guaranteed, and we still don’t know how far we can reach in cultivation. The road to immortality may be interrupted at any time. Of course, we can also change back to 'orthodox' at that time, but it will take some time."
"The other thing is to follow your sister-in-law to learn the 'orthodox' cultivation method. This is the road that countless immortals have walked. As long as you have enough talent, you can eventually reach the realm of gods. You can decide for yourself which route to choose. I have no opinion.
, let’s think about it, everyone.”
Hearing this, the whole family was silent. After a while, Xiaoyao said first:
"I decided to learn from my sister-in-law in the future. My brother's skills are too slow. Every time I have to wait until you figure it out before we can practice. In this way, I will never be able to surpass my brother. I'd better learn from my sister-in-law. As long as I work hard, I will master it sooner or later.
More than my brother."
Xiaoyao looked eager to try and unwilling to admit defeat.
At this time, Xiao Sheng also said:
"I also learned from my sister-in-law. In the past, my brother had no choice but to figure out and practice the exercises on his own. Now that my sister-in-law has a family of cultivators here, I think it is more convenient."
Hearing this, Yi Rui was a little surprised at first, but then she smiled knowingly at Gongsun Yan, knowing that this was probably not Gongsun Yan's idea, and she said softly:
"Xiao Yao, Xiao Sheng, you two will have no problem learning Kung Fu from me in the future. My sister-in-law will definitely teach you all the skills you have. But the Kung Fu created by your brother is also very good. If it weren't for your brother's Kung Fu, my sister-in-law would not be at her current level.
He will stay in the qi training realm. Not only will he not be able to continue practicing, he will probably turn into dust now. Your brother’s technique saved my sister-in-law’s life!”
Hearing this, Feng Yi, mother and son finally learned the truth about why Yi Rui's parents agreed to their daughter marrying Gongsun Yan.
Feng Yi thought for a while and then said:
"Yan'er, I'm not afraid of being slow, so let's continue practicing your skills!"
"Okay! It's decided. From now on, mother and I will practice the 'Way of Gathering and Dispersion', and Xiao Sheng, Xiaoyao and your sister-in-law will practice the 'orthodox' technique."
"Actually, it's not as absolute as what your brother said. The road to immortality is different and leads to the same destination. As long as you practice diligently, you will eventually succeed. During this period, you can also learn from the two techniques."
Yi Rui's words made Gongsun Yan nod frequently, and then he jokingly said to his younger brothers and sisters:
"Your sister-in-law will be your master from now on, why don't you meet the master yet?"
"Don't listen to your brother's nonsense." Yi Rui said angrily.
"As it should be, a sister-in-law is like a mother! We should pay homage to the master."
After Gongsun Sheng said this, he and Gongsun Yao solemnly gave Yi Rui a big gift, which made Yi Rui very embarrassed.
In fact, Gongsun Yan did have an idea in his heart that he wanted his younger brothers and sisters to practice with Yi Rui.
Ever since he took his mother and younger brothers and sisters to practice, Gongsun Yan had a heavy psychological burden. He was afraid that due to his own carelessness, his younger brothers and sisters would ruin their cultivation path. Now that his younger siblings have chosen to follow Yi Rui to practice, he has also suffered a lot.
, there is a feeling of relief.
Feng Yi then told Xiao Sheng and Xiao Yao about the wedding held for Gongsun Yan and Yi Rui on the ninth day of the first lunar month. After hearing this, the two immediately cheered and ran out to discuss buying gifts for their brother and sister-in-law.
On Gongsun Yan's side, he was thinking about the infringement of the Ai Lou Kingdom. He was about to get married and could not escape. It was estimated that Xing Kui would not be able to come back in a short time. He could only hope that the Qingyue Sect could sustain it for a while.
Since returning from Xuanzhou Continent, Gongsun Yan has "inspected" all the maids, servants and guards at home, and found no major problems.
Recently, after Gongsun Yan returned to his hometown where mortals gathered, his mentality changed a lot.
Whether walking on the street or facing the busy mortals in his own family, especially the elderly, he would habitually expand his thoughts and explore their past experiences in order to distinguish good people from bad people.
At the beginning, Gongsun Yan never tired of doing this. This was also a "special function" that he had longed for for many years. He hoped to be able to see the quality of this person at a glance to decide whether to continue to associate with him or not.
After a few days, Gongsun Yan discovered that it is difficult to judge arbitrarily whether a person is a good person or a bad person while living in the world.
"Good people" may also have done some bad things. In some cases, they are indeed forced to do so, but as far as the things themselves are concerned, good things are good things and bad things are bad things.
Similarly, a "bad guy" will occasionally do a few good deeds in his life. Although these good deeds may only be directed at his relatives and friends, they are still considered good deeds after all.
He realized that it is not difficult for a person to do something good, but it is difficult to do good things consistently throughout his life. Similarly, it is not easy for a person to persist in doing bad things throughout his life.
Gongsun Yan realized that the key to interacting with someone is to see whether they are sincere to you. He may be a "good person", but if he is indifferent to you at a critical moment, he may ruin a big thing for you.
Similarly, in the eyes of others, he may be a "bad person", but if he can lend a helping hand at critical moments, then he is worth getting along with for you. Although this kind of idea seems a bit utilitarian and selfish, it is not true when walking in the world.
Extremely crucial.
Especially when you establish your own power in the future, you cannot expect that your team will all be "good people". Good people will have conflicts together and do bad things; similarly, a team cannot be made up of all "bad people".
"composition.
What's more, as people grow up, their own thoughts are constantly changing, and impromptu ideas often occur. Therefore, most of the time in the world, there is no need to hate evil as much as hatred. Sometimes, harmonious coexistence is more effective.
After thinking about this, Gongsun Yan decisively shut down his mind. If it was not necessary, he decided not to use this "special power" in the future, so as to avoid preconceptions and the effect would be counterproductive.
In fact, things in the world are often like this. If you are hostile to others from the beginning, how can you expect others to be friendly to you?
Sometimes, it is okay to choose to turn a blind eye or not hear other people's shortcomings that are innocuous and do not endanger the principles.
