Bai Qing put away the fluffy wolf tail and hit the coachman on the forehead. The coachman shook a few times, coughed up thick phlegm, and woke up suddenly.
"Let's go, continue on our way."
Bai Qing told the driver to continue driving, and had no intention of continuing to chase the wolf girl. She had no extra spiritual energy to waste now.
The coachman had no choice but to bite the bullet and hurry on, looking in both directions as he drove. Fortunately, there was a spiritual array laid out by Bai Qing on the carriage, so he was not disturbed by any evil spirits after a night.
It was just getting dark, and Xu Zhiyi woke up in a daze. Instead of rubbing her eyes, she rubbed her waist first. Apparently, sleeping on the hard carriage floor was not comfortable.
"morning."
Bai Qing said hello to Xu Zhiyi calmly, still playing with the thick wolf tail in her hand. She carefully brushed away the hair on the tail and pulled out some wolf hair from time to time.
Xu Zhiyi seemed a little afraid of Bai Qing, opening and closing her mouth. After hesitating for a long time, she pursed her lips and then spoke.
"Sister Bai, morning"
Bai Qing noticed something strange about her and asked proactively: "Do you think I'm too cruel to those refugees?"
In other words, in this world, one either has no spiritual roots, and once one has spiritual roots, he must be a practicing genius with a special physique.
"Dig Guanyin soil."
"You are right. Just a thousand years ago, monks still chose one of the four paths. Some even did not study such miscellaneous studies at all. There were also many people who devoted themselves to pursuing the path."
"It's just that the heaven and earth changed and evil spirits emerged. From then on, there were very few people with spiritual roots in the world."
"What is this?" Xu Zhiyi looked at her with some confusion.
Xu Zhiyi lifted a corner of the curtain and saw that there was no grass growing in the bare mud. In the vast expanse, there were only a few children digging dirt on the raised mounds, and there was a fire beside them.
"I'm not asking you to choose. You must learn these four basic skills and be proficient in them." Bai Qing said sternly.
"Ah, actually I haven't decided what I want to learn yet. Maybe I will like Dan Dao more than Fu Dao?"
Lin Xixue squeezed out a wry smile and said, "It's okay. Actually, I don't need to sleep. I don't know how bad my complexion is for a while, but overall it's not a serious problem."
"If a thousand years ago, there was only one person in a hundred who had spiritual roots, then now there is probably only one person in a hundred thousand who has spiritual roots."
"It's the sticky soil used to make pottery. It's boiled in water to make a paste. It can fill your stomach. You won't feel anything after eating it. It's just very bloated and uncomfortable."
Bai Qing looked at Xu Zhiyi in surprise and asked: "Did your ancestors have monks who left behind some ancient books?"
"So few! How many disciples are there in the Lantau Mountain Sect?" Xu Zhiyi was frightened by these words.
"They all have to be proficient?!" Xu Zhiyi was so shocked by these words that she couldn't help but raise her voice a bit.
"Sister Bai, is Sister Lin really okay now?" Xu Zhiyi turned to ask Bai Qing's opinion.
"Well, topics related to evil spirits are really taboo in this sect, so I don't know exactly what state she is in at the moment." Bai Qing couldn't explain clearly either.
"Although there are fewer people with spiritual roots, we have discovered a pattern. All people with spiritual roots in the Southern Cang Realm today are all cultivation geniuses with special physiques who have been favored by heaven."
Bai Qing didn't say anything else, she just focused on carving spiritual inscriptions on the pen barrel.
No wonder when Bai Qing tested Xu Zhiyi's spiritual roots yesterday, he found out that he had Gengjin body and Zhijin spiritual roots, but he only said that he had the appearance of a middle-aged man.
There are only two extremes: genius in cultivation and inability to practice. There is no middle state at all.
Lin Xixue sat aside and was also shocked by this number. She understood that Lantau Mountain was a secluded place, so it was normal for there to be not many disciples, but there should be at least a few hundred people.
While Bai Qing was speaking, her hands didn't stop. She gathered the selected wolf fur into a cluster, took out a slender and smooth purple bamboo tube from the storage bag, and fixed the gathered wolf hair on the bamboo tube.
One end.
Bai Qing's eyes dodge for a moment, then returned to normal: "There is Langhuan Pavilion inside the door, which contains the world's collection of books. I know it is not strange."
"But your face is really pale, and the dark circles under your eyes seem to be getting heavier." Xu Zhiyi didn't seem to believe what she said.
She expressed her doubts, but Bai Qing just shook her head and said, "We just discovered such a phenomenon. As for the reason, I really don't know."
"So, even if you are practicing the Four Paths, you will never delay your normal practice."
"Okay. Sister Bai, you just said that you need to learn elixirs, talismans, formations, and weapons, and even master them. Wouldn't that delay your practice?" Xu Zhiyi brought the topic back.
Seeing that she had woken up Lin Xixue, Xu Zhiyi said guiltily: "Ah, sister Lin, I've disturbed you. I'm sorry, I feel like your face is getting worse. Do you want to take a rest?"
"Sister Bai, what are they doing?"
But Lin Xixue is even more puzzled. The Taoist tradition of Lantau Mountain has declined to this extent. Why should we continue to be conservative and self-proclaimed when we should be opening the gates widely to attract new blood?
After a while, she handed the prepared langhao small regular script to Xu Zhiyi and said, "See if the weight is appropriate."
But why did the world undergo such astonishing changes after the emergence of evil?
Although there are fewer people with spiritual roots, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and there will always be more people joining us when we open the gate.
Lin Xixue was disturbed by the sound and naturally woke up.
Xu Zhiyi didn't think so much, she asked: "So why are there fewer people with spiritual roots, but they have to learn all these miscellaneous subjects?"
"I think maybe it doesn't have to be so rough." She clenched her fists and decided to speak out her true thoughts.
Lin Xixue sighed. She was not surprised by Bai Qing's answer. How could Bai Qing, an ordinary disciple of the Immortal Sect, be able to master such a secret that might involve the source of a world's changes.
However, the total number of people up and down is sixty-five, which is really an exaggeration.
"False pens, elixirs, talismans, formations, and weapons are all the basic skills of my Lantau disciples. If you want to get started, you will naturally need a good talisman pen."
Lin Xixue secretly took in a breath of cold air. This Bai Qing was so speechless that she never stopped talking. Each thing she said was more and more outrageous.
"Sister Bai, you are a disciple of the Immortal Sect, but you still know this?"
"It's really okay. You see, I'm talking very energetically now. You can talk about your own business and don't worry about me."
"Guanyin soil?"
"Haha." Xu Zhiyi smiled awkwardly and joked: "There is an uncovered book at home. When I saw it from above, I thought it was just a book of stories about ghosts and ghosts."
"The whole sect, from the Supreme Patriarch to the direct disciples, has a total of sixty-five people."
The carriage continued to move forward, and it was already noon in the blink of an eye. Suddenly there was a muffled "Puff" sound outside the carriage.
"So that's it. It turns out that there are such secular books in the Immortal Sect. I will also read it when I get started."
When Bai Qing heard this, her face became a little stiff.
"Don't look at it. There's nothing interesting to see. It's just the life of the refugees. Guanyin soil, earthworms, grass roots, bark and leaves are mashed to make porridge. The leaves are very bitter and the bark will scratch your throat. The Guanyin soil is very swollen. It's nothing.
Meaning."
"Of course, you may have read in ancient books that the red land is thousands of miles away, and the food is exchanged for children!"
After Bai Qing said this, she took a deep breath, pressed her lips into a line, and closed her eyes tightly.
The second chapter is delivered! Unknowingly, I have already written seventy-two chapters, and the first volume is almost coming to an end. The end of the first volume should be a climax of the story, so please welcome me
