Chapter 4 The Favor of the False Taoist

After my mood calmed down, what came over me was a feeling of homesickness. When I first came to this world, I just felt the shock and disbelief brought about by traveling through time. But now that the excitement and novelty has passed, and my mood has calmed down, the rest

There is only emptiness and loneliness.

The bright moonlight in front of the bed,

Suspected to be frost on the ground.

Looking up at the bright moon,

Lower your head and miss your hometown.

When I was in school as a child, this poem was just a children's song and an assignment assigned by the teacher.

Although there was no frost in the world, and he did not see a warm bed, looking at the bright moon in the sky, Dugu Yue had the feeling of truly understanding this poem for the first time.

Loneliness, longing, and the earth can never go back! My parents will never be seen again!

Thinking of this, my nose felt sore, tears filled my eyes, and then slowly left down my cheeks, making the muddy cheeks even more colorful...

Her eyes blurred by tears gradually felt a dark shadow coming in front of her. Before Dugu Yue could wipe away her tears, a magnetic old voice came over: "Girl, Pindao Temple, you are born with a clean body and have the qualifications to practice."

Extraordinarily high, your destiny is extraordinary, and your future will definitely be limitless. Are you willing to worship me as your teacher?"

Duguyue closed her eyes, wiped away her tears, and saw clearly the Taoist priest in front of her.

Duguyue is not in a good mood now, and the Taoist priest is not very good at reading the atmosphere, but he still retains his sense and does not respond out of the blue.

There is so much uncertainty in this world. There is no guarantee that if you throw a stone at any corner, you might be able to hit a peerless strong man who is hiding in the city. You must remain humble when dealing with any inconspicuous character.

With a polite attitude, you might meet a low-key and powerful person.

Dugu Yue glanced at the corners of his eyes, and immediately twitched the corners of his mouth fiercely. Even the sad and lonely mood just now was diluted a lot. It was already confirmed that the Taoist priest in front of him was definitely not a strong man.

So he ignored the Taoist priest's mood and said feebly: "Old man, there are customers at your stall, and they are still playing with your fortune-telling treasure."

When the fake Taoist priest heard this, he immediately turned his head and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old boy standing in front of the fortune-telling stall, holding a tattered old book that seemed to have been read countless times.

In an instant, the fake Taoist priest jumped up, and then ran towards the little boy, scolding him as he ran: "Little bastard, that's the divination arithmetic passed down by your ancestor. Treat it with care, I rely on the fortune-telling stall."

It’s holding up.”

Hearing this, the little boy didn't react at all, as if he was used to it. He just said calmly like a young adult: "Grandpa, my father asked me to call you back to finish the meal. You can also do divination and arithmetic. From then on,

You said this to my father when he was a kid, but until now you haven't learned even a single move. Otherwise, our family would have been full of warriors. How could we be so depressed that I would join Qingshu Martial Arts on the condition that I have to work for the city lord for ten years?

Academy to learn martial arts?"

The little boy's complaints behind him were so low that Dugu Yue could only vaguely hear them thanks to her senselessness after being transformed by her vitality.

At this moment, the fake Taoist priest spoke again: "Girl, it's getting late. It's so late at night. It's not easy to occupy such a stall. Please help me look at it for a while. I'll bring it to you when I come back."

For those of you who are eating, I will also lend you my grandmaster’s divination and arithmetic, so that you can learn a little bit from it. You will not have to worry about food in the future, just don’t lose it.”

After saying that, without waiting for Lonely Moon's consent, he left alone with the little boy. In the distance, you could vaguely hear the words of the fake Taoist priest: "Little bastard, are you still complaining that I made you pay for ten years?"

I have time to learn martial arts for free. I have told you how many times I have told you that this is what my grandpa and I learned from Bu Tian’s arithmetic. Qingshu Wushu Academy is a key to your future success."

Dugu Yue has a black hair. The grandfather and grandson are really a pair of living treasures, but they are also good people. Although he did not agree to help the fake Taoist priest look after the stall, he still has to look after the food brought by the fake Taoist priest.

a while.

Do whatever you want to do, and what you have decided will be implemented immediately. This is a rare advantage of Dugu Yue in his previous life.

When you come to fortune telling, you just sit on the ground. Anyway, you may not be as clean as the ground, and there is nothing to pay attention to.

Seeing how the fake Taoist priest spoke so seriously, Dugu Yue couldn't help but feel a little tempted, so she stretched out her dirty little hands to pick up the old secret book called Divination and Arithmetic and started to read it.

By applying the power of heaven and earth to one's own body, one can deduce the general trend of heaven and earth in the future, and predict the good, bad, and bad luck of people in the future.

The introduction on the first page is very simple, just one sentence.

Dugu Yue did not think about it and continued to read: Divination means: five disadvantages, three shortcomings, nine disasters in three years, all can be changed; misfortunes and blessings, personal fortune, can also be changed...

Soon, an hour passed, and Dugu Yue also turned to the last page: There are countless variables in the future, and there are countless roads in the future. The results of divination cannot be fully trusted, because if it has already been achieved, the results will surely appear.

After reading it, Dugu Yue felt confused for a while. She understood the meaning of each word, but when put together, it was like reading a heavenly book. Only the last sentence was understood by her.

That is, there are countless paths in the future, and everyone's choice may change the entire future. Even if you know the future, you may make mistakes because of someone's changes, so you cannot believe it all.

This kind of nonsense has nothing to do with the fact that the true father-in-law, who has finally made up his mind to practice the Sunflower Manual and has already cut it, said the eight words on the first page that if you want to practice magical skills, you must first practice self-conquer, it is a joke. You can practice without self-conquer. What's the point?

the difference?

Isn't this deceiving people?

Duguyue felt like she had been cheated. Reading also requires brain cells. After reading such a mysterious book, her already hungry stomach suddenly became even more uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Duguyue smelled the aroma of oil and water from the food, and her stomach suddenly made an urging "gurgling" sound.

His little nose, which was so dark that the color of his skin was invisible, twitched twice, and then he looked straight in the direction of the scent.

I saw the fake Taoist priest who had been gone for an hour slowly walking over carrying a large wooden plate with some dishes that looked like they were made of jade.

The aroma of the food came from there. The fake Taoist priest had left for an hour. Dugu Yue had given up all hope, but she didn't expect that he actually brought her food.

This made Dugu Yue feel warm in her heart for the first time in this alien world with cold relationships, and her eyes, which had already had widened tear ducts, became blurry again.

I believe anyone who has truly experienced that feeling of being extremely hungry and finally getting food knows that you really want to eat it until the sky becomes dark, the sun and the moon lose light, and you will not stop until the universe dies.

When the fake Taoist priest came closer and placed the plate on the ground, Duguyue didn't even bother to say thank you, and didn't mind having dirty hands. He just grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.

If Duguyue wasn't still a little reserved in her heart, she might have gone to eat the leftover garbage from the restaurant. Now that the food is right in front of her, she can no longer care about others. She only sees the food, and wolfing it down is no longer enough to describe her.

The image at this time is like a starving ghost eating Haisai.

Five minutes, only five minutes, Duguyue ate all the food that the fake Taoist priest had brought for two people.

"Thank you, I will repay you in the future." Dugu Yue, who had filled her stomach, lay on the ground and said sincerely while stroking her satisfied belly.

This was a good man who was kind to him. Dugu Yue remembered this deeply, and when he established himself in this world in the future, he must repay the kindness of this meal.

"You little girl, why are you so serious? It's just a meal. You helped me look at the stall for an hour in exchange for this. You deserve it." The fake Taoist priest said seriously.

In the eyes of the fake Taoist priest, this girl is pitiful. She is not much older than his grandson, but she has become a beggar. She is also a miserable child. It can be seen from the way she eats just now that she will definitely starve.

It's been a long time. Now that I've encountered it, I thought I'd help.

Duguyue didn't speak, because no matter what the fake Taoist said, she remembered it in her heart. As long as she believed that he was kind to her, she would repay him.

The two of them just sat in front of the fortune-telling stall, and neither of them spoke again. The fake Taoist priest was afraid of saying something that would make Dugu Yue sad, but Dugu Yue simply didn't know what to say, and only she knew her own problems.

I don’t know how much time passed, but Duguyue suddenly said: "Old man, can you tell me about this city and the surrounding areas? I just came here not long ago, and I don’t know much about the surrounding area.

.”

Normally, I wouldn't think it was a big deal if I was alone, but suddenly there was someone around me, and there were no guests coming to tell fortunes. The fake Taoist priest also felt a little uncomfortable. Now that Dugu Yue took the initiative to ask questions, he no longer had to worry about what to say to Dugu.

Yue was sad, so she just poured out the beans and talked about everything she knew, regardless of whether it was useful or useless.

Not to mention, this fake Taoist priest has lived in this small town all his life, and he knows a lot of things under the influence of his ears and eyes, such as some low-level divisions, the master level of this city, and the general landforms around it.

.

I learned from the fake Taoist priest that the city lord of this small town was a master of the first level of martial arts and the strongest person in this small town.

Although the fake Taoist priests don't know how powerful they are, it's no secret. Anyone who is a local in this small town can find out just by asking.

There are also some common sense of cultivation that basically everyone knows, such as the difference between a warrior and a warrior.

As long as one can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth to temper the body, and one of the twelve main meridians and Rendu meridians that penetrate the body, one is equivalent to becoming a martial arts disciple and has the qualifications to enter the martial arts.

Because only by connecting all the Ren and Du meridians and the twelve main meridians can the energy of heaven and earth from the outside world be retained in the body and transformed into the energy of one's own arms and fingers.

Only when you possess vitality can you be considered a warrior. A warrior can only be considered a martial arts apprentice, not a warrior at all.

These are things that are open to the world but no one mentions them, because they are common sense. Regardless of whether they have cultivation qualifications or not, as long as they aspire to become a warrior, any talking three or four-year-old milk baby will know it, so no one will go

Talk about these.

To be honest, this fake Taoist priest is obviously not a cultivator, but he really knows a lot.

According to ancient records, this world experienced a great catastrophe long ago. Originally, this world had immortal cultivators. However, after that battle, the inheritance of cultivating immortals was cut off, and martial arts also entered a low ebb.

I don’t know how many generations it took to get back to what it is now.

There are actually three types of cultivation methods circulating in the world today: physical training methods, spiritual training methods, and martial arts techniques used against enemies.

Warriors basically only practice physical exercises and martial arts, and divine refining techniques have become a scarce resource. Even a rubbish divine refining technique can attract strong men in the Martial Lord realm to snatch it.

The magic method means that you can cultivate spiritual masters who belong to your own power. Even if you don't have power, you can still train disciples.

Duguyue deeply feels that the world has gone awry. As an experienced time traveler in novels, who doesn’t know that spiritual and physical practitioners are the only way to go further in the future?

"If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely find a way to get a book on how to cultivate spiritual power." Duguyue thought in her heart.

Although Yongtai City is an inconspicuous border town, it is the closest place to Central Continent in the Northern Territory.

Because Yongtai City is only separated from Zhongzhou by the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, as long as you leave the city and walk southward through the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, you can reach Zhongzhou where martial arts flourish.

It's just that since records began, no human race has dared to cross the Monster Mountain Range. Even the strongest in a region, if they want to go to Central Continent, must first go around the Eastern Region and then go to Central Continent.

Because the Monster Mountain Range is undulating and almost surrounds the entire Central Continent, only the Eastern Region can enter Central Continent.

According to legend, there are ten very terrifying monsters in the Monster Mountain Range. They have lived for who knows how long, and all of them can turn into human forms, and their strength can be compared to that of the Ten Realm Martial Emperors in the human race.

Although this world is ostensibly dominated by the human race, the area ruled by the human race is less than half of the entire world. Not to mention the sea race in the boundless sea, not all of the five continents belong to the human race.
