Chapter 16 To practice, or not to practice?

 Yang Zhen suddenly opened her eyes, she was already in the bedroom, everything was dark and silent.

It's late at night.

"Why did you come out of space so quickly this time?" Yang Zhen was puzzled.

He sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then suddenly remembered what he should do now.

He got out of bed, lit the candle, took out a pen and paper, and began to record the exercises he had just memorized.

First, there are the practice steps and formulas, then the formula for medicinal baths, and finally, the key points of each of the Thirteen-Position Gymnastics are recorded one by one.

After doing this, he stretched his body and slowly walked out of the room.

Outside the house, the bright moon hangs high, and the moonlight shines on the courtyard, as clear and transparent as if it were covered with a layer of accumulated water.

Yang Zhen stepped into the courtyard, looked up at the silver moon, and wandered in thought.

He has moved out of that small courtyard and lives in the outermost wing of a three-door courtyard. In the innermost part of the courtyard, Caiyun and Zhao Yuer live.

The Zhao family planned to let him be the little girl's companion, which Caiyun secretly told him in the afternoon. The wife thought that he was mature, steady, and alert, and could just help Caiyun manage Yue'er's temperament.

Moreover, they are still the same age, so they should be able to play together. In this manor, Zhao Yuer seems to have no friends of the same age.

However, Madam has not announced this yet, and she will probably not make this arrangement until he officially becomes Madam’s adopted son.

These thoughts just flashed through Yang Zhen's mind. What he was thinking more about at this time was the shortcomings of the [Five Elements Body Training Technique].

Just when he was about to come out of the space, he suddenly understood the shortcomings of this technique.

The advantage of this technique is that it can stimulate the growth of spiritual roots, but the disadvantage is also here.

It will not only stimulate the growth of a certain spiritual root, but all five spiritual roots will be stimulated according to the relationship between the five elements.

Yang Zhen heard her grandma say that in this world, the best talents are those with single spiritual roots, followed by double spiritual roots, then three spiritual roots, and the worst are those with four or five spiritual roots.

During practice, spiritual energy with different attributes will interfere with each other. The more complex the spiritual roots are, the more interference there will be; the closer the spiritual root strengths are, the stronger the interference will be.

The consequences of this are low cultivation efficiency and slow cultivation progress.

And this [Five Elements Strengthening Technique] stimulates the growth of the five spiritual roots at the same time. It is very likely that a certain person who originally had two spiritual roots ended up with four or five spiritual roots because of practicing this technique.

Spiritual roots.

A monk who originally hoped to obtain the Golden Elixir of Zifu could only spend his whole life at the level of Qi training.

This is not like the "Qian Ling Jue". The stronger the spiritual root in the body, the easier it is to be stimulated by the magic formula. The stronger one is stronger.

Therefore, among the same number of monks, the offspring of female monks are more likely to have outstanding talents such as single and double spiritual roots.

In comparison, this Five Elements Jue is really worthless.

No wonder... Yang Zhen finally understood why the Yang family had only a few members, but monks kept appearing.

On the other hand, since the ancestors of the Yang family, the descendants of the monks are almost all Qi practicing monks, and there will never be a monk with more than three spiritual roots who can hope to build a foundation.

Xiao Shitou's father didn't know if it was for this reason that he simply stopped practicing.

Now, the choice before Yang Zhen is, should he practice this technique or not?

……

In the afternoon again, Yang Zhen organized the account books and transcribed information in the side hall, and called a maid:

"Sister, please go and inform me that I want to see Madam."

At that time, my wife once told me that if I found any problems in the account books, I could go to her.

The maid turned around and left. Yang Zhen stood up straight and stretched her waist.

This morning he and his grandma went to the Taoist temple and got back two things.

One is Kim's ashes, which are placed in a jade box.

He planned to bury Jin and Yang Yin together. However, he had "forgot" where his biological father was buried, so he had to ask the Zhao family to arrange for someone to go to Zhu's hometown to find out.

The other item is the flying sword used by the Jin family at that time, which was also returned to Yang Zhen.

He pulled out the sword and felt a cold light coming towards his face. The sword was only a foot long and looked more like a dagger. There were two simple large seal characters "Qing Yue" on it.

"This is a flying sword made by Qingyuefang in Yuezhou. The flying swords they produce are all in the shape of willow leaves. They are beautiful in style, small and refined, and are more popular among female cultivators. Otherwise, they are quite sharp.

You are still just an ordinary boy, and you carry this sword with you as an ordinary sword for self-defense, and it is also a sharp weapon..."

This is how grandma introduced it at the time.

Yang Zhen understood the meaning of the words. This sword is more beautiful than practical. For a low-level female cultivator like Jin, it is a bit flashy.

But after all, it is a magical weapon, several times more powerful than ordinary swords in the world. Yang Zhenzhen put it away carefully.

……

"Caiyan said, have you sorted out these ledgers?"

In the hall, Madam sat on a soft couch and looked at Yang Zhen with a smile.

"In reply to Madam, I haven't sorted out all of them yet, only one of them has been sorted out. However, you can tell the whole story at a glance. This one book alone is enough to explain a lot of problems."

Yang Zhen stepped forward and handed an account book and the notes he excerpted and recorded to Caiyan next to her.

Madam took the account book notes from Caiyan, looked through them briefly, then put them aside, but looked at Yang Zhen with interest:

"First of all, can you tell me briefly, what are the problems?"

"The main problems include repeated accounting, altered accounts, inconsistencies, etc. In addition, in some accounts, I asked Caisi that there may be problems with false expenditures and false accounts. As for whether there are understatements or insufficient income.

Accounting and other issues require further investigation..."

"According to your calculations, how much is the amount in this account book alone and all the issues added up?"

"About fifty or sixty gold coins."

"Hiss", Caiyan on the side couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this.

There are about thirty books in Yang Zhen's place. If each book has this number, these thirty books are worth about two thousand gold coins.

As the lady's personal maid, Caiyan's monthly salary is one hundred silver coins, which is about ten gold coins. This salary is already very high in the Zhao Mansion. For an average servant in the Zhao Mansion, the monthly salary of a maid is between ten and twenty.

About silver coins.

If in Yang Zhen's world, Caiyan would definitely be a proper senior white-collar worker, with beautiful people and lots of money.

"This Jia Sheng is so courageous!" Madam gritted her teeth with hatred.

Only Yang Zhen stood there with an indifferent expression.

"What do you think?" Looking at Yang Zhen like this, Madam knew that he still had something to say.

"Madam," Yang Zhen said with cupped hands: "How to deal with the previous accounts is something that Madam has considered. It's just that the accounting records in the house are quite confusing. I have a way to strengthen the accounting and supervision of the accounts. Please make your decision, Madam.

."

"Oh? What's the solution? Let me tell you."

ps: After coding a chapter, I feel comfortable all over.
