The spirit testing conference officially started at 9 o'clock in the morning, but at 7 o'clock, the outside of the spirit testing conference venue was crowded with people. The spirit testing conference had not started, so they could not enter the venue.
When there was still a quarter of an hour before Si hour, Gu Changhuan took his younger brother Gu Sheng, his father and a pretty woman into the venue of the Spiritual Testing Conference. The only place where spiritual roots were actually tested in the Spiritual Testing Conference was the "Dengxian" in the center of the venue.
"Pavilion", the outside is just a waiting area.
That pretty woman was Gu Sheng's biological mother and Gu Shan's concubine.
Naturally, they came here to test whether Gu Sheng had spiritual roots.
Gu Changhuan's original idea was to wait until the spirit testing conference was over and then take his younger brother Gu Sheng to test the spirit roots, which would save him the trouble of waiting. This was also a good intention, but after Gu Sheng's aunt heard the news, she thought that Gu Changhuan was deliberately preventing Gu Sheng from testing.
Spiritual roots.
"My son is born smart, he must have spiritual roots! Master Huan must be afraid that my son's spiritual roots will be detected and it will affect his status! What a vicious heart! Fortunately, we are still brothers!" Gu Sheng's aunt thought bitterly.
.
She walked around in her yard restlessly for two times, and finally she was so upset that she ran to Gu Shan and cried endlessly. Gu Shan was soft-hearted and did not blame her.
But in the end, the news reached Gu Changhuan's ears. Although he was not angry, he couldn't laugh or cry. She just lamented that Gu Sheng's aunt was too underestimated of Gu Changhuan's magnanimity and the family's rules.
The Gu family has strict rules. No one is allowed to hinder children of school age from testing their spiritual roots in any way. Violators will be expelled from the family tree. Mortals are expelled from the family territory, and immortal cultivators will have their cultivation levels revoked. Under such harsh punishment, the Gu family established
No one has violated it in hundreds of years.
However, Gu Changhuan still brought Gu Sheng to the spirit testing conference. In order to prevent Gu Sheng's aunt from causing trouble again, Gu Changhuan simply asked her to come with him.
"Chang Huan pays homage to the two clan uncles Shiyuan and Shichang. Changhuan didn't go to pay homage to Shichang uncle yesterday, so don't be surprised if he still wishes to see Shichang uncle."
"Chang Huan doesn't need to be polite." Gu Shichang quickly helped Gu Changhuan up.
"I haven't seen Chang Huan in more than a year and he has grown a lot!" He had lived in Yuqing Town for several years, so he had naturally met Gu Chang Huan.
Gu Shan and others also saluted Gu Shiyuan and others. Although Gu Shan and Gu Shiyuan were of the same generation, after all, Xianfan was different and Gu Shiyuan was older. Gu Sheng and Gu Sheng's aunt kept quiet.
After the three of them exchanged a few pleasantries, Gu Changhuan explained his purpose.
"It turns out he is Chang Huan's younger brother! Come, come to Uncle Shiyuan. Gu Sheng is a good name." Gu Shiyuan called Gu Sheng to him and took out the spiritual ruler.
Gu Sheng followed the instructions and put his hand on the spirit measuring ruler. Gu Shan and Gu Sheng's aunt suppressed their blushes, as if they were the ones testing the spirit roots.
Gu Shichang looked at Gu Sheng, then at Gu Shan and Gu Sheng's aunt next to him, and smiled with unknown meaning.
After a few breaths, there was no response from the spirit measuring ruler.
A few more breaths passed, and the spirit measuring ruler was still dark, with no sign of it lighting up.
Gu Shan was a little disappointed. Gu Sheng's aunt looked ashen and gloomy, as if she was mourning for her heir.
Gu Sheng looked at his father and biological mother uneasily and shrank his neck.
Gu Changhuan was neither happy nor sad, he just said, "Father, please take your brother and aunt back home first. I'll stay here to see if I can be of any help."
Gu Shiyuan looked at his nose and eyes, and Gu Shichang comforted him, "Brother Gu Shan can have an heir with spiritual roots, which is already more than many people in the clan. Spiritual roots are determined by fate, and cannot be forced."
Gu Shan responded a few words and left Dengxian Pavilion with Gu Sheng and his concubine.
It's just the right time now.
"It's time to start. I hope there will be a few more children with spiritual roots this time." Gu Shiyuan walked out of the house first, followed by Gu Shichang and Gu Changhuan.
The venue of the spirit testing conference is now very lively. There are already many children standing in the venue. They are in groups of three and teams of thirty people. Each team is led by an adult, waiting to detect the spirit roots. These children
Parents and relatives are not allowed to enter the venue, they can only wait outside the venue.
As soon as Gu Shiyuan appeared, the noise inside and outside the venue suddenly became quiet. He touched his beard and said loudly
"I announce that the spirit testing conference has now officially begun! All children aged seven to eleven can come to the 'Dengxian Pavilion' to test their spiritual roots. The rules are the same as in previous years, three people in groups. Without further ado, let's start now
Psychic testing!”
Gu Shiyuan turned around and returned to the Dengxian Pavilion. They only needed to sit in the room and record the results. The other juniors, Gu Changfeng and Gu Changyong, would do the rest. He was just here to take care of things. As for Gu Changhuan, he was still seven or eight years old.
Children, you stay here just to watch the fun.
At the entrance of Dengxian Pavilion, Gu Changfeng held a thick roster
"Yuqing Town, one team. One group will go in first, and the rest will wait." Gu Changfeng checked the names of the thirty children one by one and said after confirming that they were correct.
The three children walked into the Dengxian Pavilion obediently and saw three spiritual rulers placed on the table in the hall of the Dengxian Pavilion.
Gu Changyong instructed them to put their hands on the spiritual ruler, and the three children followed suit.
After five breaths, there was no response from the three spirit measuring rulers.
Gu Changyong asked them to retreat.
"Next group!"
Three more children walked in, and the measuring ruler seemed to be on strike, with no reaction at all.
"Next group!"
"Next group!"
······
Soon, all the children in the first team were tested, but not a single child with spiritual roots was found.
Gu Changhuan looked at the two uncles who were concentrating with their eyes closed. He wanted to say something but finally didn't open his mouth. Not one of the thirty children had spiritual roots. This was too...
The second team also quickly completed half of the test.
"Next group!"
Three little boys walked in. This was the last group of the second team.
After three breaths, the spiritual ruler placed in the middle shone with green and brown light!
Gu Shiyuan and Gu Shichang opened their eyes and were even more ecstatic after seeing the light emitting from the spirit measuring ruler!
It turns out to be the dual spiritual roots of earth and wood!
At this time, the aura on the spiritual ruler was still flashing, the brown aura stopped at four inches and seven minutes, and the green aura was still rising.
After five inches and six inches, the green aura slowly stopped on the seven-inch-one-minute scale.
Everyone was shocked!
The main spiritual root is seven inches long, which is an excellent double spiritual root!
Gu Changyong was also very happy. He checked the roster in his hand.
"Your name is Gu Cheng, right! Congratulations! Your spiritual root qualifications are very good!"
"Gu Cheng, what a good name! But from now on you will be called Gu Changcheng! I, Gu Shiyuan, am your clan uncle. From now on, you can call me Thirteenth Uncle."
Gu Shiyuan said with a smile, if he brings back a dual spiritual root monk, the family will give him more rewards! He might as well form a good relationship with this child, which will be beneficial to himself and his descendants. Gu Shiyuan is indeed an old fox, and he thought instantly
There are many stakes.
He called Gu Changcheng to him and handed him a magic weapon like a jade pendant, "This is my meeting gift to you, don't refuse it!"
Although Gu Shichang was happy, he remained unmoved. He was old and had no descendants with spiritual roots. Even if the Gu family had a heavenly spiritual root, it would be of little benefit to him, who was living in the mortal world for his old age.
On the contrary, Gu Changyong is very happy because Gu Changyong understands that only if his family is good can he benefit from it.
Gu Changcheng's family was just a farmer. He had never seen such a scene before. He declined and accepted Gu Shiyuan's gift uneasily.
Of course Gu Changhuan is also happy, this is his clan brother, and he will no longer be the youngest monk on Bifeng Mountain!
The Dengxian Pavilion was lively for a while, and the spirit testing began again!
Not long after a child with two spiritual roots was detected, another child with three spiritual roots was detected.
A morning passed, and among hundreds of children, only two children had spiritual roots. Gu Changhuan sighed a little, but Gu Shiyuan and others were very satisfied. Two of them were already very good, not to mention one of them had double spiritual roots.
Woolen cloth!
Gu Shiyuan asked Gu Changyong to take his two children to report the good news to their parents. After Gu Changyong went there, he was thanked profusely. The parents of the children were so enthusiastic that it made him, a cultivator of immortals, a little creepy.
