Chapter 442 Heart’s concerns [please ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket]
Zhao Xintong walked on the field stalks, her steps a little heavy.
For a practitioner in the Bridge Realm, this weight is nothing; what really weighs on her is her own foggy future.
She is twenty-three years old this year, and the deadline for leaving the Taoist Temple is only three months, so time is running out.
But she just couldn't take that last step.
This is not something that can be forced. In most cases, the monk has his own premonition about whether it will succeed or not; she doesn't even have the urge to achieve this, let alone try it easily.
The prerequisite for trying is that you have the urge to reach higher levels.
After several years of studying in the Taoist Academy, she learned a lot, and she also liked the atmosphere of studying Taoism and its principles here. However, she could not stay here forever. There were too many helplessness that restricted everyone.
She has worked very hard, knowing that Taoist Xi is calm and indifferent, and has no source of income. There are also some necessary expenses for the two sisters in the process of practice. Therefore, since arriving at Hongye Taoist Temple, except for some stitched clothes that represent her feelings, she has only
I will no longer accept funding from Taoist people and pay every expense for myself based on my own hard work.
However, God will not be lenient just because of her efforts; there are many people who are more difficult than her in Hongye Taoist Temple, and the outcome will not change at all.
In Hongye Taoist Temple, there are many second-generation cultivators, but most of them are always those at the grassroots level; they have been eliminated since the beginning of the pulse, unable to draw Qi, unable to cultivate the essence, unable to live without grains, unable to complete the bridge...
More than half of the people will fall in front of Lianqiao. People like her who can prepare to attack Tongxuan in Lianqiao realm are the objects of envy in the eyes of many people; but she knows that if she does not enter Tongxuan, other achievements will be useless.
In vain.
"Xintong, will you come with the handkerchief tonight?" a woman asked,
The handkerchief meeting is actually a kind of cultivation seminar among the female disciples of the Taoist monastery. They help each other, learn from each other, and share their knowledge. It includes some problems in cultivation, and also includes the allocation of resources. If you exchange things for things, you must
Much more cost-effective than going to Xiuzhenfang City.
Zhao Xintong shook his head, "I won't go. I still have some homework to do in the evening. There are so many things about astrology that I haven't even thought about yet..."
The woman advised: "Actually, wouldn't it be better to bring up the things you don't understand at the handkerchief meeting? It is better to gather the wisdom of everyone to have a broader idea than to work alone behind closed doors."
"You guys go ahead. I've been distracted lately, as if I'm not interested in anything."
The few women behind looked at each other, some shook their heads and sighed, some disapproved, and some were gloating.
Since it is a Taoist academy with thousands of Taoist students, all kinds of conflicts between right and wrong are inevitable. Especially for these Taoist disciples who are just one step away from the door, they are often particularly eye-catching.
The special environment created a special focus; in the country of Shan, the minor cultivators were scattered out to grow wild in nature, walking on the edge of life and death every day, so few people cared about the differences between them.
The Yanmen sword cultivator's method is destined to have a stronger survivability, but the relationship between them is indifferent; the Weimen Taihao's method is less capable of personal survivability, but the relationship between these Taoist disciples has become very close.
, being disciples in the same hospital, there is a certain sense of closeness inherent in them.
However, in such a centralized apprenticeship environment, comparison with each other has become the norm. The most obvious manifestation is the emergence of various rankings.
For example, the list of the shortest time to enter the Tao, the list of the fastest to reach each realm, the combat strength list, the divination genius list, the strongest puppet list...the second generation cultivation list, the wealth list, the dry cultivation list, the Kun Xiu fairy ranking, etc.
There are always boring people who are keen on this, and they update and adjust the list at any time to maintain the accuracy and authority of the list; theoretically speaking, the probability of being selected for the list and finally succeeding in attaining enlightenment is really higher than that of the general public. many.
The most representative ones are the Second Generation Xiu List and the Wealth List. Historically, more than half of the Taoist disciples who can be on these two lists have successfully attained the level of Tongxuan.
If you can be listed in several lists, your success rate will also greatly increase. Opportunities always favor outstanding people, and it is the same everywhere.
Zhao Xintong is a person who is on both lists. He is famous in Hongye Taoist Academy. He is on the Divination Genius List and the Kun Xiu Fairy List. There are ten people on each list. It is not easy to get into any of the lists.
Appearance is also a type of comprehensive strength; in the world of cultivation, there are countless handsome men and beauties, and there are no ugly ones. Unless you deliberately act independently, you can change your appearance to a certain extent when you channel Qi and build energy.
To be able to stand out among thousands of Taoist disciples and rank in the top ten, in addition to his peerless appearance, he must also have a unique temperament that is out of this world. In this regard, Zhao Xintong is known for being mysterious and aloof.
But these cannot really help her enter the higher realm.
There are many famous people, there are many good sisters who work together and share joys and sorrows. Of course, there will also be many envious, jealous and hateful ones, and there are countless pursuers like bees and butterflies. They are all part of the Taoist life.
She is alone, has no friends, has a rough life experience, and has nothing to rely on; under such circumstances, she has really worked hard to be able to practice Qi-entraining and bridge-connecting at Hongye Taoist Temple.
A group of people came to the alchemy room and handed in today's harvest. At the end of each month, the alchemy room would settle the fees with them. This method is also the tradition of Hongye Taoist Temple to support Taoist disciples from poor families.
Or looking at it from another perspective, it is also hiring a group of competent spiritual farmers for free, killing two birds with one stone.
When I come out of the alchemy room, my companions who picked together have dispersed. This is due to personality and the direction of practice. For a practitioner whose main direction is divination and prediction, too frequent interpersonal interactions are Their taboos.
Those who work in this field need to be cool and reserved, and keep a certain distance from everyone, so that they can see more clearly and further.
The saying that you can only see from a distance, not up close, and the darkness under the lamp has practical significance to her; the feeling of being close, familiar, and getting along day and night will greatly limit their judgment of the future.
Divination is destined to be a lonely personal journey. Everyone is drunk and I wake up alone is the ultimate secret of this way.
But such a state of mind requires years of polishing and accumulation of experience, which is a hurdle for most young Taoist disciples; they are not yet able to look at the world with cold eyes, and of course they will be influenced by too many outsiders in their divination. Depends on factors.
Zhao Xintong is different. Although he is not old, he has a lot of experience, so he is known as the divination genius among the disciples of Hongye Taoist Academy.
The lotus steps are swaying gently, the red sky, the red city, people coming and going, a woman in a goose-yellow skirt, just like a painting.
...There is no beauty, no demon, no fragrance, no need to wait for the Double Ninth Festival. Don’t look at it with a sober eye, but you really love Dan Huang.
