    With the dull bells ringing on the Star Peak of Lingjian Mountain, the Lingjian Sect¡¯s once-in-a-decade training event for new disciples officially began.

    All disciples below the foundation-building stage were kicked off the mountain by the elders. No matter what the special reason was, whether they were feeling unwell or in a critical period of retreat, they were treated equally.  Moreover, the elders even put a seal on the disciple's bedroom, truly leaving no way out.

    The disciples are either happy, eager to try, or hesitant, but in short, in the next year, they will be self-reliant.

    Most people have done enough homework in the one-month preparation period before the event. Although Cangxi Prefecture is only one of the nine states, and it is a relatively remote and poor state, it is still vast compared to a group of minor cultivators in the Qi training period.  Boundless, there are hundreds of mortal countries, large and small, among which the larger one is like Gu Yongguo, which has a population of nearly 100 million, accounting for one-twentieth of a state, and the smaller one is like Baiyue Kingdom, which has millions of people.  .  As for the number of monks, it is about a thousand to one ratio with mortals - of course, most of them are inorganic monks, and the ratio of pure organic monks will be one ten thousandth, which is good.

    For these newcomers to the immortal world, the mortal world still has countless wonderful things, and they will only be dazzled after going down the mountain.

    However, the senior brothers and elders of Lingjian Sect's Tiance Hall provide humane services. They have made a training guide manual for each new disciple. It not only displays some common sense that should be acquired during training, but also draws a guidance map.  Listed are recommended locations for experience: such as the Baiyue Kingdom, where friction broke out with the Shengjing Immortal Sect some time ago, and the Desolate Kingdom, where a magic weapon was recently rumored to be born They are both places where great things happen, but because the matter is not big, it is difficult to attract high-ranking officials.  It is suitable for experienced monks to go there and is suitable for newcomers to experience.

    One year is not a short time, but it has really started to gain experience. Counting the time spent traveling back and forth, it means going to two or three places and dealing with two or three things However, there are thousands of places listed on the guidance map.  It's simply dazzling.

    Most of the disciples attach great importance to this map. They have spent less than half of the month analyzing the map and choosing locations Because after a year, in addition to the progress of their respective cultivation bases, what measures the results of their experience is how they see it.  It¡¯s a painful experience report, and the scores in the report are scored by people from Tiance Hall, so who dares not to pay attention to the instruction manual produced by Tiance Hall?

    Wang Lu dares.

    On the day he came down from the mountain, Wang Lu threw the map aside and went straight to Wangjia Village in the northeast corner of Gou'er Mountain in Wuhou County, the eastern province of the Ming Dynasty.

    Of course, a backwater like Wangjiacun would never be listed on a map. Thousands of suggested locations seemed like a lot, but when placed in the entire Cangxi Prefecture, it suddenly made a huge difference. Wangjiacun alone was not qualified.  In this regard, Wang Lu could only say that the losers in Tiance Hall are simply blind. That in Wangjia Village is the former residence of Wang Lu with ethereal roots!  ?  Tickets will be charged for future viewings.  Mr. Wang, the richest man in Wangjiacun, is worth millions. When the real estate in Wangjiacun appreciates in the future, he will be renamed Wang Ten Million, and Wang Yiwan will be the same. He should be respected, okay?  ?

    "Tiancetang is blind, but I can't be blind. I only have one year. I can get experience and other training at any time. I don't have many opportunities to go home. All I need to do is use my imagination to report the magic horse!"

    On the way home, Wang Lu was filled with emotions. Two and a half years ago, a wild man from a mountain village bravely ventured into Lingjian Mountain with an inexplicable confidence and several thousand taels of silver. Two and a half years later, a bright star in the world of immortality  The new star is rising, how fast the changes are!  Although the current level of cultivation is not high, and the road to immortality has just begun, but with the eighth-grade spiritual treasure-if we don't mention the nine seals, the Spirit Sword Sect has a few priceless challenge points. In terms of wealth, it is probably better than the Spirit Sword Sect.  Ordinary golden elixir disciples are not inferior. At the same time, as a true disciple of the Five Ultimates of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, the future is already bright. Returning home this time can be said to be a glorious homecoming!

    The only regret is two and a half years ago, there were two people who walked up this road to Lingjian Mountain, but when they went back, there was only Wang Lu. Wang Zhong didn't know what he was thinking. He would rather go and wait with Zhu Qin.  He didn't want to go home with Wang Lu to have a look, as if he was a troubled little daughter-in-law But this did save a lot of trouble.  Although he has been sending letters to his family continuously in the past two years, explaining the situation, it is obviously very difficult for Mr. Wang, who has been diligent, low-key and pragmatic all his life, to accept that the little book boy in his family has also embarked on the path to immortality.  Neither of them felt comfortable after meeting, so it was better not to meet.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: ??????????????????????????????????????: ??Wang Lu is really looking forward to this return home. He hasn¡¯t seen his parents for more than two years. Even a professional adventurer can¡¯t help but miss them, and he feels eager in his heart.  Different from the thinking of other immortal cultivators, Wang Lu didn't think about the different paths between immortals and mortals, or the issues of life, separation, and death. Parents are parents, so why should he consider whether he is a mortal or a monk?  Even if these parents were brought to him by the magical comet, more like his adoptive father and mother, how could the thought of raising him for more than ten years be false?  Mr. Wang and his wife??Sui Shi is a kind of simple, honest and wonderful person with wisdom in life. In addition to caring for him for more than ten years, he has also been very happy to get along with him in life.

    I remember my father¡¯s elaborate calculations for a few hundred taels of silver when I was a kid, and my mother working all night long in the kitchen during the Chinese New Year, making New Year¡¯s goods for the tenants in the family. Even though it¡¯s just an insignificant detail in life, it still has a special flavor.

    As for the issue of different paths for immortals and mortals Now I am only fifteen years old. Although my parents are mortals, they are in good health and have at least thirty years left to live. What's more, I can take some miraculous elixirs from Lingjian Mountain and provide them for mortals.  It's not difficult to extend your life by a hundred or two hundred - it's just that a too long lifespan may not be good for mortals.  In short, there is really no need to worry about things that will happen decades later.

    In addition, although Wangjiacun is just a remote mountain village, it is still his hometown where he has lived for more than ten years. There are hundreds of families in the village, and Wang Lu can name every one. For example, he regards his father as his old enemy, and he is determined to  Wang Dafu, the neighbor next door who wants to surpass in wealth but has never been able to do so, or Wang Langzhong, an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who specializes in treating various difficult and complicated diseases is just an ordinary member among the hundreds of millions of people on the Kyushu continent.  But in Wang Lu's life for more than ten years, they each played an important role.

    Life in the first twelve years was simple and honest. As a professional adventurer, it should be boring. In fact, when Wang Lu left his hometown for Lingjian Mountain two and a half years ago, he did feel the joy of getting rid of his cage, but the experience  After two years of living as a monk, he inevitably missed the comfortable and simple Wangjia Village.

    This is because after getting used to playing with Yujie, you will inevitably have a yearning for Lolita.

    Although he was thinking wildly all the way, Wang Lu's footsteps were astonishingly fast. Later, he walked from Wangjia Village over mountains and ridges for two days to Wuhou County. It took him ten days to reach Wuhou County by riding on a cart with the carriages and horses in the county.  At the foot of Lingjian Mountain, it was thanks to the fact that the Ming Dynasty was not far from Lingjian Mountain.  When returning home from this trip, Wang Lu walked the entire journey, day and night. It only took him less than three days to see the familiar outline of Gou'er Mountain.

    This is the advantage of being a monk. Even if he is only a seventh-level Qi practitioner in the Spirit Sword Sect and is not good at body skills, he will still be a top martial arts master in the mortal world, and he can move faster than a galloping horse.

    Just when he reached the foot of Dog'er Mountain, Wang Lu couldn't help but stop.

    What should I do next?  As the first meeting after two and a half years away from home, how should you appear in front of the villagers?

    Highly high, setting up the trend of monks in the fairy family, such as the emperor's patrol?  Or are you approachable and greet every villager along the way?  This is not a question of vanity or not, but involves many practical factors. As a monk with high emotional intelligence, Wang Lu had to make plans in advance.

    However, before he could think about the answer, the sight before him made him frown deeply.

    The changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth are somewhat abnormal With the root of emptiness, Wang Lu's keen sense of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth far exceeds that of ordinary monks. Therefore, during the two years of practicing in the sect, he learned a side skill in his spare time:  Qi gazing technique.

    There are many factors that affect the changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, among which the behavior of living things accounts for the vast majority, especially humans Where there are people, the changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth are far more dramatic and complex than in no-man's land.  A very important part of the so-called Qi-gazing technique is to explain how to use the changes in the aura of heaven and earth, without inferring what happened locally.

    More than two years ago, Wangjia Village was like most remote mountain villages on the Kyushu Continent. The aura of heaven and earth was active but not intense, just like Xiaojia Jasper. The color cannot be described, but it is probably light green.  However, what comes into view now is dyed with a withered yellow color.  For a more detailed analysis, Wang Lu could not observe it due to his cultivation, but he could make a preliminary judgment based on this withered yellow land.

    There are many possibilities, one is that there has been severe drought for many years and the vitality has withered, but looking at the tree-lined scene of Gou'er Mountain, it doesn't look like it!

    Or an important person in the village dies, but given the situation in Wangjia Village, even if the village chief or the richest man, Mr. Wang, dies, it will not affect the atmosphere of the mountain so drastically. Except for Wang Lu and Wang Zhong, all the people in Wangjia Village  These two anomalies, the others are just ordinary people. The structure of the village is simple and stable, and it doesn't matter who is missing.

    The last one is where demons are wreaking havoc and evil spirits are rampant.

    Thinking of this, Wang Lu ignored any practical issues, quickened his pace, and headed straight into the mountain as fast as lightning.

    After crossing the highest peak of Gou'er Mountain, Wang Lu finally saw Wangjia Village again. The village didn't look much different from two and a half years ago. With his now astonishing eyesight, Wang Lu could clearly see the people who were busy in the village.  In the farmland, you can see the smiles of hard-working and happy farmers, and you can also see the angry but doting women scolding naughty childrenbut the yellowish air that permeates them makes people look solemn and hard to let go.

    In the mountainsAfter looking for a while, he still couldn't figure it out. Wang Lu thought for a while and decided to ask his father directly. It's not like a dragon's pond or a tiger's den. Why should a dignified immortal monk be so timid?

    So he didn¡¯t care whether he was pretentious or not, and with the look of someone running around day and night, Wang Lu walked into Wangjia Village and went straight to the spacious house in the east of the village, which was his home.

    What¡¯s strange is that the villagers he met along the way looked at him with strange eyes, as if they were watching a rare and endangered animal, with curiosity and a hint of pity.  He even seemed hesitant when saying hello.  Wang Lu greeted him warmly several times, only to be met with awkward or even cold feedback.

    Damn it, what is happening?  Wang Lu frowned more and more, feeling that the changes in the village seemed to be more difficult than imagined. He had been sending letters home over the years. Although he did not receive a reply for some reason, at least the villagers should know the identity of his Xian family monk.  No idea That idiot Wang Xiaohu cheated his father out of hundreds of thousands of silver and sent it to a ninth-rate organization called the Seven Star Sect, which made everyone in the village envious. His five true inheritances should be like the stars in the sky descending to the earth.  , is there anything to sympathize with?  As for the slight hostility, it was even more inexplicable.

    Hostile to a powerful monk who can level an entire mountain village in half a day?  Is there maggots in the brain?

    Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a person next to me greet me.

    "This, isn't this the child of Wang Fugui's family?"

    Wang Fugui is the name of Wang Lu¡¯s father, but since he became the richest man in the village and had contacts with the county officials, he was respectfully called Mr. Wang. Few people mentioned his real name, even the second richest man next door.  Wang Dafu also wanted to address him respectfully as Brother Wangand there was only one person in the village who addressed him by his first name.

    The old village head of Wangjia Village, Wang Qinian.

    Wang Lu turned his head, and sure enough, it was the old man with a gray beard and a kind face.  In the young man's impression, the old village chief was an out-and-out good man, with a tolerant personality and wisdom. He was an elder worthy of respect. Wang Lu even brought him a souvenir after he left Lingjian Mountain

    "Oh, stay with me."

    The old man sighed and waved to Wang Lu. Wang Lu followed him with doubts, and soon he arrived at the village chief's house.

    "Come in and sit down."

    After sitting down in the room, before Wang Lu could say anything, the village chief patted Wang Lu on the head lovingly.

    "We haven't seen each other for more than two years. We have grown up."

    Hearing this kind sentiment, Wang Lu smiled and said, "It's just adolescence."

    "You've been out and about for more than two yearshas it been hard?"

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s not hard work at all.¡±

    "That's good, that's good" Wang Qinian nodded happily, and then sighed, "A lot has happened in the village in the past few years."

    Realizing that the topic might be about to get to the point, Wang Lu leaned forward a little, and his expression became serious: "I can see that there seems to be evildoers running rampant here.

    In Wang Lu's view, this sentence was a bit radical as a wayfinding stone, but based on his relationship with the old village chief, it was nothing. The village chief recruited him into his family just to discuss the changes in the village.  What?  As for me, a dignified monk from the Immortal Family, if I don't go around the topic, I will be in trouble, so I would rather get straight to the point.

    However, this sentence made Wang Qinian's expression change drastically: "You, how dare you say such a thing!? If the gods hear it, what should I do?"

    Wang Lu was shocked on the spot: "Where are the gods in Wei? Not to mention that after experiencing a Dharma Ending Age more than 6,000 years ago, there has never been a real ascendant Even in the Dream Age, the existence of the immortal world is just a legend.  ¡±

    Wang Qinian shook his head: "I don't know what the Dharma-ending era you are talking about, butwell, that kid Xiaohu really got it right. You have been deceived too much in the past two years!"

    Damn it?  What kind of divine expansion is this?  Who is Wang Xiaohu?  Where do you start talking about being deceived?  Could it be that he was tricked by a humanoid self-propelled rhythmic drop device named Wang Wu in Lingjian Mountain?  The question is, how do you, an old village chief, know what happened on Lingjian Mountain?  ?  I never said anything wrong about Master when I sent letters to my family. I never talked behind his back, I always criticized him in front of his face!  ?
